[17:46] <Headcase_Fargone> I am able to copy files over using sudo cp
[17:46] <dr_willis> Headcase_Fargone:  make a dir on the fs via sudo mkdir then sudo chown the dir to be owned by.your user and try writing to it
[17:46] <Headcase_Fargone> Definitely a permissions issue it seems.
[17:47] <dr_willis> or.. chown the mountpoint after uts mounted
[17:47] <mcbaine> :)
[17:47] <Headcase_Fargone> chmod -R 777 work?
[17:47] <grobda24> sh1ny, not answering my question. CAn terminal/command line access smb:// files directly or not ?
[17:47] <Headcase_Fargone> I have access to it after that, but doubt that's the best solution
[17:47] <dr_willis> dont just toss 777 around. ;)
[17:48] <Headcase_Fargone> Security?  Blah :)
[17:48] <dr_willis> chown it to be i
[17:48] <dr_willis> owned by the user
[17:48] <Headcase_Fargone> chown i?  I'll try that
[17:49] <dr_willis> leaen how permissions and ownership work. ;)
[17:49] <sh1ny> grobda24, no, not without mountng it

[17:54] <Jackjon89> Hi i am new to ubuntu and have a problem, can anyone help ?
[17:55] <Ristovski> I installed ubuntu on my SD card using Unetbootin , I booted ubuntu , All went good but abount 2 mins in and I got an message box saying "this pc has 0 bytes remaining" any help? Some ppl say that happens , but my ubuntu was unusable
[17:55] <KM0201> Jackjon89: ask your question, if someone can help, they will
[17:55] <ikonia> Jackjon89: ask the question
[17:56] <Ristovski> but my SD card had 2GB free space
[17:56] <KM0201> Ristovski: and nyou tried to put ubuntu on that 2gigs of space?
[17:56] <KM0201> or it had 2gigs of free space, after you partitioned it for ubuntu.
[17:56] <dr_willis> Ristovski:  you made a persistant sace file?
[17:56] <Ristovski> dr_willis : Unetbootin did it
[17:56] <Polah> Is it normal for directories to be unaccessible when not marked as executable? I was reinstalling from a live session (10.10) yesterday and had to change some permissions to access my second drive, so I set permissions for public to 4 to read them and I could read files, but directories showed up as binary files until marked with 5 for public which made them show as directories
[17:57] <dr_willis> Ristovski: it made one?
[17:57] <kirior> hi, i need a guide on how to fix grub after windows installation :/
[17:57] <ikonia> !grub2 > kirior
[17:57] <Ristovski> dr_willis : yes
[17:57] <mang0> How do I find out a what libaries a prog needs?
[17:57] <dr_willis> Ristovski:  ut may be full
[17:57] <Ristovski> dr_willis : ?
[17:57] <dr_willis> it may be full...
[17:58] <kirior> ikonia, cheers !! :) need to bookmart it :P second time thiss week i need it :P
[17:58] <Jackjon89> i have installed ubuntu as my only OS, while ubuntu is starting up, before it requests my password an error message appears saying "disc drive for dev/mapper/cryptswap..." i've spent a fair old while googling and looking at the forums and i believe part of the problem is the fact i chose to encrypt my home folder (i did this on the initial setup when installing the ubuntu OS) despite reading about many people with the same/
[17:58] <zooka> !grub2 > zooka
[17:59] <ubun_> can i install ubuntu on a partition. go into another partition(lubuntu already installed into that one) copy all the files into the new ubuntu partition. then delete the lubuntu partition or "merge them:????
[17:59] <ikonia> Jackjon89: that will be the problem yes
[17:59] <KM0201> thus why i never encrypt a home drive.. just to dangerous...lol
[17:59] <Polah> ubun_: Did chrooting and doing adduser not work?
[17:59] <mang0> How do I check what libs a program needs?
[17:59] <ubun_> polan: no
[18:00] <dr_willis> ubun_:  you mean your users home dir and files?
[18:00] <Polah> ubun_: strange, it should've
[18:00] <Jackjon89> Any ideas on a remedy ? should i just not encrypt the home folder ?
[18:00] <ubun_> dr_willis: yes
[18:00] <Whysper> Damn, and to think I was a mouse click away from Encrypting the home folder :| Glad I didnt :(
[18:00] <ubun_> polan: i know but its not
[18:00] <KM0201> Jackjon89: that would be my suggestion.. but.. you may find alternate answers.. i dunno
[18:00] <dr_willis> ubun_:  should work
[18:00] <ikonia> Jackjon89: do you have a need to encrypt your home ?
[18:00] <ubun_> polan: idk why it didnt i tried 3 times.
[18:01] <Polah> ubun_: Did you get any error messages?
[18:01] <Jackjon89> well im not sure, i just assumed it would be safe regarding my personal details... if it's not necessary i'm happy for it not to be encrypted ?
[18:02] <ubun_> dr_willis: is there a way to check what packages are installed into the old partition through live cd: (i cant do it through the console: since i cannot log in.
[18:02] <ubun_> polan: no error message. said it was succesfull
[18:02] <dr_willis> chroot in ubun_  then see the! clone factoid
[18:02] <th0r> Jackjon89: consider using somethiing like keepassx to store password and such, and create an encrypted container with truecrypt for anything else you want to  protect
[18:02] <ubun_> clone factroid?
[18:02] <Polah> ubun_: chroot and run dpkg -l
[18:03] <ubun_> ok
[18:03] <dr_willis> ubun_:  you did chroot in when adding the new user?
[18:03] <k4r1m> is there a specific channel for Oneiric?
[18:03] <Jackjon89> sweet, that's fine, i used to use truecrypt with windows, so that sounds like a decent solution, thanks.  How do i disable the encryption of my home folder ?
[18:04] <trism> k4r1m: #ubuntu+1
[18:04] <k4r1m> trism: thanks
[18:04] <Polah> ubun_: Did you chroot to the correct directory? i.e. the one at the top of your old system partition
[18:04] <KM0201> Jackjon89: lol.
[18:04] <Logical> Hi there.
[18:04] <ubun_> dr_willis: yes i used chroot. i can try again
[18:05] <puntje> Hi, is it possible to hide the JOIN/PART/QUIT messages on XChat-GNOME client ?
[18:05] <KM0201> Jackjon89: if it could be disabled, it wouldn't be very useful
[18:05] <Logical> I have a problem with my OS, apparently something with the init files is screwed up.
[18:05] <TehAndrewRyan> i'm planning on upgrading my graphics card. i already got an ati card, and at times it can be glitchy with ubuntu. i'm tempted to choose a nvidia card, but the ati ones are cheaper. so, what should i do? and is there a way to make ati cards work better in ubuntu?
[18:05] <ubun_> polan: yes i did fdisk -l and it said it was sda1. the other 2 were swap and extended
[18:05] <Logical> Any help on what to do?
[18:05] <Jackjon89> really ? so i have to install the OS ?
[18:05] <Jackjon89> re-install*
[18:06] <dr_willis> TehAndrewRyan:  theres nvidia cards for every budget.
[18:06] <Polah> ubun_: That's not what I told you to do. I said to mount it somewhere, i.e. sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt then chroot into it, i.e. sudo chroot /mnt
[18:06] <KM0201> Jackjon89: you can try this, but i wouldn't get my hopes up..  http://www.satansgarden.org/2010/03/05/removing-encryption-from-home-directories-in-ubuntu-9-10/
[18:06] <TehAndrewRyan> dr_willis: i'm looking at either gtx 560/570 or an ati 6950
[18:06] <freddy__> Hi - I have an old laptop that contains ubuntu dapper dualboot with XP. Now I want to sell it and format the dapper drive to ntfs. I use GRUB to boot it. What will happen to GRUB if I delete the dapper partition from XP ?
[18:07] <Jackjon89> thanks km0, i'll take a look now.  i just assumed that if i had admin privs i could somehow disable it heh.
[18:07] <KM0201> freddy__: the mchine will no longer boot.
[18:07] <dr_willis> freddy__:  reinstall the windows mbr.
[18:07] <dr_willis> first.
[18:08] <KM0201> reinstall windows mbr then use a partition tool to reclaim the space
[18:08] <freddy__> KM0201: can I do this from windows or do I have to have the windows boot disk ?
[18:08] <TehAndrewRyan> dr_willis: the radeon 6950 is better than the gtx 560, and the 570 is more expensive than the radeon 6950, but probably a bit better. the thing is i want it to be as cheap as possible, while still taking the fastest one
[18:08] <ubun_> polah: thats what i did. that the same exact instructions as on the ubuntu site.
[18:08] <Polah> freddy__: If you're going to sell it, you may want to consider zeroing the drive and then reinstalling Windows from there if you have any sensitive data on there
[18:08] <Polah> ubun_: What instructions?
[18:08] <KM0201> freddy__: there's a free utility called easus partition editor, that will restore a windows MBR>
[18:09] <KM0201> or mbrfix... those are the two i know of
[18:09] <Polah> freddy__: Can also be done from a Windows recovery CD
[18:09] <dr_willis> TehAndrewRyan:  wont do mych good to go ati if it dont work
[18:09] <freddy__> super thanks guys!
[18:09] <ubun_> polah: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCdRecovery
[18:09] <TehAndrewRyan> dr_willis: and ubuntu and ati don't quite like each other, right? (i'm mainly using ubuntu nowadays, but when BF3 is released i'm going to be a lot more on windows)
[18:10] <Polah> ubun_: You just did passwd and set a new password?
[18:10] <dr_willis> TehAndrewRyan:   pick the best nvidia for your $$$
[18:10] <TehAndrewRyan> dr_willis: alright, thanks
[18:10] <Jackjon89> right, think im just going to reinstall ubuntu, doesn't take that long anyway... i'll just choose no encryption...... thanks for the help guys
[18:10] <Jackjon89> :)
[18:12] <takitez> hi, anything better/faster than "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX bs=8k" to wipe a disc completely?
[18:12] <dr_willis> takitez:  just reformat it. ;)
[18:13] <Polah> ubun_: If you just did passwd without specifying a user, then you changed the root password. Do the first few steps again up to chrooting, then do passwd <user>, replace <user> with your username, then set a new password. Reboot into your proper system and log in with that password, then run sudo passwd -l roo
[18:13] <Polah> dr_willis: Doesn't actually destroy data though, does it?
[18:13] <takitez> dr_willis: naa, have to give it away and don't want to make data-recovery too easy
[18:14] <dr_willis> Polah: depends on the options. ;)
[18:14] <Polah> takitez: There's programs that can do the same thing, like DBAN. Remember that dd will take quite a while, depending on the size of the disk. 1GB will take a few minutes
[18:14] <irvken> http://paste.ubuntu.com/696260/ what does this mean?
[18:14] <KM0201> takitez: dban?
[18:14] <dr_willis> and your paranoia level
[18:14]  * KM0201 is not that paranoid
[18:14] <irvken> http://paste.ubuntu.com/696260/ what does this mean?
[18:14] <Polah> DBAN is quite paranoid. One pass with dd from /dev/zero would do, two if you're a bit worried
[18:14] <ubun_> polah: ok let me give it another shot. but i will have to log off. since im in live cd at the moment
[18:14] <KM0201> irv: did you read it?....
[18:14] <irvken> i pasted it
[18:15] <Polah> ubun_: Did you do it with passwd username this time? (:
[18:15] <KM0201> irvken: i know, did you read it.
[18:15] <sveinse> A shell question:  I'm calling cp -a $* /some/dir within a script. $* may contain files or directories. In case of dirs, I'd like to copy the contents of the dir, not the entire dir to the destination. Can this be done with cp in a one-liner?
[18:15] <irvken> of course I bloody did
[18:15] <ubun_> polah: i'm about to try
[18:15] <irvken> did you
[18:15] <KM0201> irvken: thent here shouldn't really be any question as to what it means
[18:15] <Polah> ubun_: No need to log off then...
[18:15] <KM0201> irvken: i'm not the one asking an obvious question.
[18:15] <Polah> ubun_: Just chroot in a terminal and then do it, then reboot into your system
[18:16] <irvken> I didn't sat what did it say i said what does it mean
[18:16] <fireprint> hmm so close to done with setting ubuntu up now. One last thing i cant seem to get sorted is my java. Its installed fine, prints my version on -version and i can watch my youtubes.. however, when i try logging into my bank. It just says i dont have java installed. here were i live it has a java app open up. Anyone got an idea on where/what i should look into? perhaps a java error log?
[18:16] <ubun_> oh right: but i will have to log off to see if it works
[18:16] <irvken> twat
[18:16] <fireprint> and sorry for the long message.
[18:17] <KM0201> irvken: thus my point, if you can't read that and come to a conclusion of "what does it mean".. then.. i doubt there's anyone that can help you
[18:17] <oCean> irvken: that language is not acceptable. Drop that attitude
[18:18] <Polah> irvken: You're actually being help into understanding what it means. It's fairly obvious, it does say what the problem is several times.
[18:18] <irvken> ask a simple question and all you get are arrogant teenage solipsists trying to be smartarses
[18:18] <ubun> .
[18:18] <KM0201> lol
[18:19] <irvken> to me it seems to say lm-sensors is installed and then in the next response no it's not
[18:19] <irvken> how couuld that be
[18:19] <ubun_> polah: ok i did it and it says enter new unix password then retype. then it says "passwd: password updated successfully"
[18:19] <KM0201> irvken: it doesn't say its not installed
[18:19] <KM0201> it says the commandis not found
[18:19] <irvken> ah, ok
[18:19] <irvken> thanks
[18:19] <Polah> irvken: We're not being arrogant. KM0201 is actually just saying that the answer to your question is right in front of you. It means exactly what it says, the command lm-sensors does not exist.
[18:19] <Polah> ubun_: For passwd <your username here>, correct?
[18:20] <Exodus> irvken, the packages name is lm-sensors, that doesn't imply that is the name of a command inside the package.
[18:21] <Exodus> irvken, you can do a dpk -L <package name>  to find out what files are installed with that package.
[18:21] <pythonsnake> How to reset ALL settings to default ?
[18:21] <pythonsnake> like a new install
[18:21] <KM0201> irvken: i'll try to put aside my arrogant teenage attitude, and suggest you give this a looksie...  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[18:21] <Exodus> irvken, also use 'man'
[18:21] <fireprint> haha brings popcorn. this is awesome.
[18:21] <Aquacuak> is there any way to know under which user/group is PHP being executed? I'm getting a permission denied in a PHP script i've made so I need to change the owner of the folder I'm trying to read to that of PHP's
[18:21] <Aquacuak> ?
[18:22] <KM0201> Aquacuak: cd to the folder then ls -l
[18:23] <Aquacuak> KM0201, that's for listing the folders, and showing the group and owner I know
[18:23] <Aquacuak> that's not what I want
[18:23] <Polah> Aquacuak: I imagine it executes under www-data, for Apache at least
[18:23] <tallis> HOw do I make myself a superuser?
[18:23] <KM0201> Aquacuak: sorry, i misunderstood your question.
[18:23] <Polah> tallis: prepend your commands with sudo
[18:23] <cwyant> My laptop keyboard doesn't work after i log in, so i am forced to use a usb keyboard i checked all settings with no luck, any suggestions? also i'm using an intel mac if that helps
[18:23] <Aquacuak> what I want to know is ift's daemon username or whatever
[18:23] <tallis> I'm trying to move a file into /etc/init.d
[18:23] <tallis> away from terminal
[18:23] <pythonsnake> How to reset ALL settings to default like a fresh new install ?
[18:24] <Polah> tallis: gksudo nautilus then do it
[18:24] <tallis> punch that into terminal?
[18:24] <Polah> pythonsnake: Reinstall
[18:24] <pythonsnake> only way ? :'(
[18:24] <Polah> tallis: Yes, it'll open nautilus as root, then you should be able to move files into root-owned directories
[18:24] <Polah> pythonsnake: Easiest way, probably
[18:24] <pythonsnake> will removing home help ?
[18:25] <Aquacuak> thank you all
[18:25] <KM0201> pythonsnake: that would make all your programs reset like they were just installed, but not the OS.
[18:25] <Polah> pythonsnake: You could delete .application folders in your home to reset preferences for those programs
[18:25] <Polah> pythonsnake: But that wouldn't change any system settings
[18:25] <pythonsnake> yeah
[18:25] <pythonsnake> I want to change theme and stuff
[18:25] <pythonsnake> yo Benkinooby !
[18:26] <tallis> thank you POlah
[18:26] <KM0201> Python1320: then change it.
[18:26] <jakobht> Hey I have a very specific question concerning kdbg. When debugging a program the progress isn't shown in the source code (which is assembly). It just shows the the breakpoint as a red dot. Anyone know what to do?
[18:26] <new> hi i am brand new to linux and i am using ubuntu
[18:26] <ubun_> dr_willis: and Polah: i think i may be having another problem. it seems that it accepts it for like 1/2 a second but does not do anything (it kind of "blinks") then goes back to the login screen. seems that if it were the wrong password it would say so.. right???
[18:27] <new> could someone give me a hand with it
[18:27] <rypervenche> new: Welcome^^ What do you need help with?
[18:27] <caffine> new: just ask your question and if someone can help, they will. :)
[18:27] <Polah> ubun_: Very strange.
[18:28] <new> thanks i just finished installing it and i can lightly see the background of the login but its hard as hell to see
[18:28] <new> how can i fix that
[18:28] <new> when i was doing the install i had to fix it as well
[18:28] <KM0201> new: graphics device on the pc?
[18:28] <ubun_> polah: i know. i mean. there is no reason why it shouldnt accept it. anyways. i think rather than spend another 10 hours trying to figure it out. i may just do a fresh install.
[18:29] <new> i forget which but i its a newer nivida
[18:29] <KM0201> new: open a terminal
[18:29] <dr_willis> ubun_:  tried it at theconsole agaun?

[18:30] <KM0201> new: there's a command you can run in terminal to find out, thus why i told you to open a terminal
[18:30] <Monotoko> jpvoip, lspci :)
[18:30] <dr_willis> ubun_:  go to the console alt ctrl-f1 and try there
[18:30] <KM0201> jpvoip: lspci or sometimes, they are on the USB bus, so lsusb
[18:30] <Monotoko> run it in the terminal, can't remember if it needs root or not

[18:36] <jlstew> still problems jpvoip?
[18:36] <jpvoip> Monotoko: Infoway w7415
[18:36] <new> how do i go about doing that
[18:36] <ActionParsnip> jpvoip: does it show in: lsusb   or did KM0201 suggest that?
[18:36] <KM0201> ActionParsnip: it doesn't show
[18:37] <jpvoip> jlstew yes, my webcam its not recognized
[18:37] <jpvoip> ActionPArsnip http://paste.ubuntu.com/696273/
[18:37] <Monotoko> jpvoip, hold on one second :)
[18:37] <ActionParsnip> KM0201: thought you had, just checking :-)
[18:37] <jpvoip> Monotoko ok
[18:38] <ActionParsnip> New: hold shift at boot, when grub shows, press e and add the option
[18:38] <new> ok i will try that
[18:38] <gary_inNYC> quick question, if i logged onto my computer via "openbox-session", am I now not using a "desktop environment"?
[18:38] <sastudio> Hello guys,after xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x600 --scale 1.25x1.25 , which scales my resolution , the cursos seems to be captured in virtual bounds(which seem to be 0,0,1024,600),any ideas?
[18:39] <ActionParsnip> gary_inNYC: yes. Openbox can run without DE
[18:40] <ActionParsnip> gary_inNYC: makes it killer light
[18:40] <pythonsnake> Python1320: not my fault
[18:40] <new> do i just type nomodeset into grub
[18:40] <gary_inNYC> ActionParsnip: yeah, i'm trying it out now, it's a huge difference on an old laptop
[18:40] <Monotoko> jpvoip, hmmm ... don't think I can help unless I can find the webcam model it uses...which I don't seem to be able to find (even with Google Translate)
[18:40] <KM0201> new: when you hit e    did you see the option where you could type?
[18:41] <mang0> ActionParsnip: What was the program you said about removing repos/ppa's?
[18:41] <new> yes
[18:41] <KM0201> new: just type nomodeset   at the end
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> gary_inNYC: totally. If you want a DE then LXDE runs it as default.
[18:41] <new> ok
[18:41] <ActionParsnip> mang0: ppa-purge
[18:41] <new> on a new line?
[18:42] <jpvoip> Monotoko anything i can do to help?
[18:42] <mang0> ActionParsnip: Thanks
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> New: add it on the line with: quiet splash
[18:42] <jiltdil> How to permanent disable any service in ubuntu like chkconfig in redhat based?
[18:42] <ActionParsnip> !boot
[18:42] <new> ok at the end of that line though?
[18:43] <ActionParsnip> New: yes
[18:44] <new> that worked thank you
[18:44] <ActionParsnip> New: you cant break it, the options are only for this boot so a reboot will undo the option :-)
[18:44] <KM0201> ActionParsnip: thats what i thought.. i was tryign to remember how to make it permanent (haven't had to do it in forever)
[18:45] <ActionParsnip> New: you may find updates fix it, or you can add it permanently later if needed
[18:46] <ActionParsnip> KM0201: in /etc/default/grub
[18:46] <new> alright i will take a look at what can update, because i am getting an error saying i don't have the hardware to run unity
[18:46] <WebDawg> Why did they password protect the forms?
[18:46] <WebDawg> ????????.
[18:46] <KM0201> new: i would consider the fact you can't run unity, a blessing.. :)
[18:46] <new> really lol alright
[18:46] <KM0201> new: you migh also need to install your graphics drivers.
[18:47] <KM0201> new: look in system/admin/additional drivers
[18:47] <io> WebDawg: ask them, #ubuntuforums
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> New: if you use nvidia or ati gpu, you can install the driver from the web for 3d support
[18:48] <dr_willis> WebDawg:  i would guess abuse and spam
[18:48] <new> and this will automatically update them?
[18:48] <new> and ok i will find that support driver
[18:48] <ActionParsnip> New: i would manually do it to be double sure
[18:48] <KM0201> dr_willis: you used to be able to browse it as a guest.... no longer
[18:48] <new> ok
[18:48] <bobbaluba3> how do i get ubuntu to work with redicously high resolutions?
[18:49] <Arutha^^> Is there any concern nowadays with non-boot 3TB/4k sector harddrives?  I'm looking at replacing some disks that are failing in my mdadm array, and figuring I might as well go big.
[18:49] <bobbaluba3> i'm getting an error saying it doesn't work because it's higher than 2880
[18:49] <ActionParsnip> bobbaluba3: you can use xorg.conf if your video chip doesnt have a GUI app like nvidia
[18:50] <bobbaluba3> i have the ati drivers installed
[18:50] <Chotaz> I've recovered a about 2000+ mp3 and mkv files from a formatted HDD using PhotoRec, is there any tool I can use to check which files are completly recovered and which are corrupted?
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> Chotaz:
[18:50] <ActionParsnip> No backup?
[18:50] <KM0201> hehe
[18:51] <ActionParsnip> Yikes
[18:51] <fireprint> I'm having issues with my java. It prints my -version still the app wont start on a javasite. anyone with ideas? point me to right direction as to where to read up etc would be appreacited
[18:51] <Chotaz> ActionParsnip: my younger brother formatted my external hdd by mistake and I had to use photorec to partially recover my lsot media files.
[18:51] <Chotaz> lost*
[18:52] <Guest4630> hi guys, how can I recover epiphany pass ?
[18:52] <ActionParsnip> fireprint: you need to symlink the .so to your browser plugins folder
[18:52] <fireprint> gracias ActionParsnip !.. again you make my day!
[18:53] <pythonsnake> how to reinstall ubuntu ?
[18:53] <jpvoip> Monotoko hey.. just press "Fn+F6" and its working :)
[18:53] <ActionParsnip> Chotaz: could use: find /path -exec file {} \; | grep -v -i audio
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> fireprint: what arch is your ubuntu?
[18:54] <ActionParsnip> Chotaz: change /path obviously
[18:55] <fireprint> ActionParsnip, arch i am not sure what you mean by that.
[18:55] <ActionParsnip> Chotaz: hopefully file will see the bad files as 'data' or similar
[18:56] <ActionParsnip> fireprint: 32bit, 64bit?
[18:56] <fireprint> oh, 32
[18:56] <jpvoip> thanks guys
[18:57] <WebDawg> Thanks io and dr_willis
[18:57] <fireprint> the weird thing is, on java.. you can test to see if java works.. and when i say "accept the thingamajig".. it pops up as working. however when i am trying that to my bank, it just waits. then says i dont have java. Seems to be locally at their bank perhaps. atleast i got it working! :)
[18:57] <pr0ton> when i run, time command
[18:57] <bobbaluba3> ok, i tried configuring my dual screen
[18:57] <llutz> ActionParsnip: "file" just performs a magic-check, it read some special data from file-headers. it cannot make sure the file not corrupted
[18:57] <pr0ton> it shows 3 lines, with labels, real, user, sys
[18:57] <bobbaluba3> using ati catalyst control center
[18:57] <pr0ton> what does it mean?
[18:57] <ragel> hi every1, I m new here, some1 can help me ?
[18:58] <pr0ton> ragel, ask the question directly
[18:58] <bobbaluba3> however, everything looks weird and stretched

[19:04] <pythonsnake> full output IdleOne
[19:04] <nilzie> is there a ubuntu version with gnome-shell as the default desktop?
[19:04] <pythonsnake> nilzie: ubuntu oneiric
[19:04] <pythonsnake> nilzie: #ubuntu+1 for more info
[19:04] <nilzie> pythonsnake: thats unity not gnome shell
[19:04] <KM0201> !11.10 | nilzie
[19:05] <KM0201> nilzie: but gnome 3 should be in the 11.10 repos.
[19:05] <pythonsnake> KM0201: ??
[19:05] <KM0201> pythonsnake: nothing..
[19:05] <Arutha^^> Is there any word on when btrfs will be the default fs in ubuntu?  Is it still slated for post 11.10?
[19:06] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: I recommend a clean install.
[19:06] <nilzie> well xfce is also in the repos but theres a xubuntu. so im looking for a ubuntu like xubuntu but with gnome instead. like gubuntu or something
[19:06] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: meh.
[19:07] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: I just clean installed earlier. (remember our discussion ? :))
[19:07] <jiltdil> please tell me that  do any one has this /dev/.udev director?
[19:07] <KM0201> not sure what to tell you..
[19:07] <rww> jiltdil: everyone on <= 11.04 should :\
[19:07] <pythonsnake> hmm
[19:07] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: sorry, I don't know how to help you in that case :/
[19:07] <pythonsnake> I think I don't have the choice..
[19:08] <jiltdil> rww:its hidden one see the dot
[19:08] <rww> jiltdil: I'm aware.
[19:08] <jiltdil> rww:rkhunter is telling this a suspecious one
[19:08] <LjL> jiltdil: it's a false positive
[19:08] <rww> jiltdil: rkhunter has false positives. that's one of them.
[19:08] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: BTW. I have a i368 kubuntu iso. Anyway to make it x64 ?
[19:08] <IdleOne> rkhunter is sometimes right
[19:08] <LjL> pythonsnake: no
[19:08] <jiltdil> rww:LjL:ok thanks
[19:08] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: no, you would have to download the 64bit version
[19:09] <ghabit> Hello. Cannot install printer with my ubuntu because http://www.openprinting.org/ is down. Where I can get file 'hplip-3.11.1-plugin.run'?
[19:09] <pythonsnake> hmm

[19:11] <pythonsnake> noob question: http://pastie.org/private/qunvsafmd5x1wboe5t6lq is deleting all this safe ?
[19:11] <pythonsnake> should I backup any folders ?
[19:11] <LjL> pythonsnake: uh, that's your home folder. you're the one supposed to know whether the stuff in it is important...
[19:11] <pythonsnake> :/
[19:13] <ramesh> hi

[19:16] <karstensrage> hi
[19:16] <Zygoptera> hi
[19:16] <karstensrage> whats the preferred location for applications to be installed?
[19:16] <ex0> wherever thy please
[19:16] <Zygoptera> is it an x-app?
[19:17] <karstensrage> no its mule-2.2.1, i am going to untar it somewhere and then set MULE_HOME to be that place
[19:17] <karstensrage> but is there a preferred place to put that kind of stuff?
[19:17] <IdleOne> karsten: /opt/
[19:17] <Zygoptera> smewhere under /usr/bin
[19:17] <stepnjump> guys, where is the gui window to add or remove repositories please?
[19:17] <IdleOne> karstensrage: /opt/
[19:18] <karstensrage> so /opt or /usr/bin?
[19:18] <adam_> I have a question
[19:18] <adam_> how do i use apt-get and store it on my flash drive?
[19:18] <ex0> its system/administration/software sources
[19:18] <KM0201> stepnjump: open synaptic, then go to "settings/repositories"...
[19:18] <stepnjump> oh I found it thanks
[19:18] <adam_> sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-generic
[19:18] <llutz> karstensrage: /usr/local/*   not /usr/bin, which should only hold distro-stuff
[19:18] <Josesordo> how I install GTK windows decorator or manager in XFCE to replace xfwm4?
[19:18] <stepnjump> thanks KM0201
[19:18] <adam_> I need to do this, but I need to install it elsewhere
[19:18] <karstensrage> :) so /opt or /usr/local
[19:18] <Chotaz> ActionParsnip: Can I use what you gave me to scan for corrupt mp3s and automatically deleete them?
[19:18] <Glassgost> stepnjump, its under synaptic package manager, the exact location eludes me right now, but its there somewhere
[19:19] <Glassgost> Yeah, what he said
[19:19] <stepnjump> thanks Glassgost
[19:19] <Zygoptera> /usr/local/bin sounds good
[19:20] <karstensrage> so it would be /usr/local/bin/mule-2.2.1/bin
[19:20] <karstensrage> or would you rather see someting like /usr/local/mule-2.2.1/bin
[19:20] <karstensrage> i guess i like the latter
[19:21] <Zygoptera> anywhere you want it
[19:22] <Zygoptera> it might have a default directory in it's makefile though
[19:22] <g30> hi
[19:22] <Zygoptera> hi g30
[19:22] <g30> hi
[19:23] <g30> they kicked me out of here before
[19:23] <stepnjump> Anybody here familiar with installing USB drivers for HP Officejet printers on Linux in term? It uses HPLIP... please let me know if familiar with the process
[19:23] <g30> just stopping in to say hello
[19:23] <g30> to my fellow linux users
[19:23] <llutz> Chotaz:  "file" just performs a magic-check, it read some special data from file-headers. it cannot check data-integrity, so be careful
[19:23] <Kyogre_> So I hear you guys like Mono?
[19:23] <LjL> !ot
[19:24] <g30> Oneiric how's it coming?> Did they fix the 32 bit stuff yet?>
[19:24] <g30> and all the broken softlinks
[19:24] <g30> ?
[19:24] <LjL> g30: please #ubuntu+1 for oneiric, and #ubuntu-offtopic for general chit-chat. just support here.
[19:24] <g30> ok thanks
[19:24] <Chotaz> llutz: is there anything I can use to scan a specific folder for corrupted mp3 files and delete them?
[19:25] <llutz> !info mp3check
[19:25] <llutz> !info checkmp3
[19:25] <llutz> Chotaz: see ubottu , might be the right tools
[19:25] <dooglus> how do I turn focus-follows-mouse off?
[19:26] <mehagopajas> erver irc.irc-hispano.org
[19:27] <stepnjump> nobody here ever installed a HP printer on Linux at all???
[19:27] <ActionParsnip> stepnjump: several times
[19:27] <Guest50664> sucks
[19:27] <nilzie> if i want the oneiric beta, should i download the dialy build?
[19:27] <stepnjump> hi ActionParsnip
[19:27] <Guest50664> step out and hack
[19:27] <stepnjump> ActionParsnip, I tried to run the hplip yesterday using the sh command
[19:28] <Guest50664> u have been hack
[19:28] <stepnjump> but it never detected my device\
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> !rootirc | Guest50664
[19:28] <stepnjump> actionparsnip: Was I supposed to disconnect the device whilst installing the drivers?
[19:28] <ActionParsnip> stepnjump: does the script run ok?
[19:28] <stepnjump> actionparsnip: I'm trying it again today
[19:29] <fireprint> ActionParsnip, and for the java plugin chrome thing.. cant seem to link them. ;)
[19:29] <stepnjump> actionparsnip, yes it runs. All the repositories seem to be flagged.
[19:29] <nilzie> whats better to download if i want to try out oneiric? the daily image or the beta 2 one?
[19:29] <thiebaude> ActionParsnip, hey there :)
[19:29] <ActionParsnip> stepnjump: did you check the hplip site to sed if your device is supported
[19:29] <IdleOne> nilzie: #ubuntu+1 for oneiric
[19:29] <stepnjump> Actionparsnip it said before the setup stage, I should log off and log back in, then run hp-setup?
[19:29] <dooglus> nilzie: whichever you use, you'll update to the newest pacakges, so it doesn't matter
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> Hi thiebaude
[19:30] <stepnjump> actionparsnip, yes it says it is supported
[19:30] <ActionParsnip> stepnjump: good, not wasting your time
[19:31] <stepnjump> actionparsnip, I'm so afraid of this setup because it never worked for me, now I'm trying to help an old aunt to transfer to linux and wouldn't want to mess up her computer
[19:32] <tallis> I'm using gedit "you do not have permissions necessary to save the file." how can I get around this?

[19:32] <IdleOne> gksudo
[19:32] <ikonia> tallis: save in a place you do have permission, or launch gedit with gksudo
[19:32] <stepnjump> actionparsnip: now it says Restart or re-p=ignorelug in your printer (r=restart, p=re-plug in, i=ignore or continue)
[19:32] <ikonia> mehlo: gui apps are launched with gksudo
[19:32] <mehlo> tallis: gksudo gedit filename

[19:33] <ActionParsnip> stepnjump: i assume you have firefox installed, feel free to use a different (better) browser if you want :-)
[19:33] <stepnjump> actionparsnip, what is the gksudo firefox for?
[19:34] <Zygoptera> mozilla (all versions) seems to have a huge "xul layer web app" backdoor  that can't be disabled
[19:34] <stepnjump> actionparsnip is okay
[19:34] <stepnjump> actionparsnip I'm trying to install the printer

[19:35] <stepnjump> actionparsnip what do you mean ru
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> stepnjump: runs the browser as root so you can use the cups web co
[19:36] <ubuntu_> hello
[19:36] <ActionParsnip> Config page
[19:36] <llutz> theres no need to run a browser as root to access cups-frontend!
[19:37] <mehlo> run your browser as root & you're asking for trouble
[19:37] <fireprint> ActionParsnip, got the ln stuff working now. everything works except the bank java still.. im gonna just tag it under "local problem at bank" and leav it at that. thanks again for the help.
[19:37] <adam__> Adam

[19:38] <macuser__> Ubuntusawr[xD], I am trying to install Ubuntu on a machine that is having a display problem.
[19:38] <lrojas> i wish my gdm greeter would show user/password boxes instead of asking the user and then the password
[19:39] <adam__> welcome
[19:39] <stepnjump> actionparsnip: as usual it gave me: no devices found... it always does that
[19:39] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser__: Okay. :3 Can you at least see any installation instruction on your screen?
[19:39] <macuser__> Ubuntuaswr[xD] yes
[19:40] <anurag> hi can any one tell me where i can get this library "libg2c.so.0" I have ubuntu 11.04 installed and I am not able to find it
[19:40] <macuser__> Ubuntusawr[xD], I have put in the disk, and I am able to see that I have choices to choose to try Ubuntu
[19:40] <stepnjump> ahaha.. actionparsnip.. she had her usb plugged in the phone jack! lol
[19:41] <stepnjump> now it works thanks
[19:41] <stepnjump> Can't believe it!
[19:41] <LjL> anurag: i can see no package that contains that file.
[19:41] <superlou> anurag, did you add libg2-dev?
[19:42] <anurag> ya i have installed that also

[19:43] <chinchurria> buenas
[19:43] <pythonsnake> Does Kubuntu have something like Ubuntu one ?
 Is it possible that these libraries are now old and existed in previous version of ubuntu
[19:43] <pythonsnake> or is ubuntu one compatible with kubuntu ?
[19:44] <caffine> filesystem that's reported as read-only when doing a mv, but mount says it's rw... anyone know what's going on here? http://paste.ubuntu.com/696276/   thanks!
[19:44] <superlou> anurag, not sure, sorry.   do you need them as a dependency for something?
[19:44] <anurag> yes
[19:44] <Arath> Hello
[19:45] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: there is no client for UbuntuOne in kubuntu, you can use one.ubuntu.com
[19:45] <pythonsnake> can I use kubuntu with ubuntu ?
[19:45] <pythonsnake> without kubuntu-desktop
[19:45] <pythonsnake> sounds odd
[19:46] <vlt> pythonsnake: You mean KDE?
[19:46] <Younder> How can I make Mathematica be an option in the unity application search menu?
[19:46] <superlou> anurag, maybe http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2406581/what-is-libg2c-library can help?
[19:46] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: lubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE
[19:46] <IdleOne> err kubuntu*
 looking into ,..............
[19:47] <pythonsnake> vlt: yeah
[19:47] <pythonsnake> KDE*
[19:47] <jtrucks> anyone recall off the top of their head the mount syntax for remounting / as rw?
[19:47] <jtrucks> or do I have to reboot for that to happen?
[19:47] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: some apps aren't same eg. nautilus vs dolphin; ark vs fileroller
[19:47] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: correct
[19:47] <vlt> pythonsnake: What do you want if not the KDE desktop?
[19:48] <pythonsnake> I want KDE with GNOME apps
[19:48] <pythonsnake> :)
[19:48] <IdleOne> install the gnome apps you want
[19:48] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> ubuntulog_: You can probably lauch a program called orca            for now to see tiny letters.

[19:49] <puntje> Is it possible to hide the JOIN/PART/QUIT messages on XChat-GNOME client ?
[19:50] <stepnjump> guys, anyone familiar with a way to connect an easy way for technical assistance under ubuntu?
[19:50] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> puntje: Yes. For details, visit #xchat
[19:50] <bindi> will it affect anything if I install ubuntu with 1 core and then upgrade that to 4 cores over a reboot? (VM)
[19:50] <puntje> thanks
[19:50] <IdleOne> puntje: right click on the channel name, go to Settings
[19:50] <IdleOne> Ubuntusawr[xD]: xchat-gnome is not supported in #xchat
[19:51] <vlt> Hello. I installed Ubuntu 11.04 on a machine where 10.04 was installed before. Now the video performance is really poor, playing videos on youtube for example is not fluent.  Any idea what to check first?
[19:51] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> IdleOne: But that feature is not in the regular xchat at all? O_O
[19:51] <HPdv6> is there driver for " IDT High Definition Audio CODEC Driver " ? because mic is not working what mean time using skype like that app voice in front not hear ?
[19:51] <macuser__> Ubuntusawr[xD], thx, I have great faith in Ubuntu, I just need to figure out how to install it to wipe out my friend's hard drive
[19:52] <IdleOne> Ubuntusawr[xD]: sure it is.
[19:52] <kristina> on gnumeric spreadsheet, how do you have a number counting down on each cell, going all the way down
[19:52] <IdleOne> Ubuntusawr[xD]: /set irc_conf_mode 1 and /gui apply
[19:53] <puntje> Idle0ne: there are no 'Settings' after right clicking on a channel, instead it's one of the options you can (de)select right away, thanks a lot
[19:53] <bindi> jesus christ unity is horrible
[19:53] <bindi> where can i find all settings?
[19:53] <fireprint> if java is installed. working on firefox but only partially on chrome.. is it still the .so file that needs linked? I believe ive done it correctly, but not sure how to check.
[19:53] <IdleOne> bindi: mind the language please and install compizconfig-settings-manager
[19:53] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser__: What you can do as well is use this page to guide you through reading "tiny letters" http://blog.sudobits.com/2011/04/23/how-to-install-ubuntu-11-04-from-usb-or-cd/
[19:53] <macuser__> Ubuntusawr[xD], I just finished installing Ubuntu under Windows, presumably with Wubi, and I am now rebooting
[19:54] <auronandace> bindi: you don't have to use unity
[19:54] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser__: Wait what? So you're using Wubi. Okay.
[19:54] <tallis> bindi, on the l ogin screen, click on your user then at the bottom.. you can changte your theme... or something
[19:54] <tallis> i should be right if i remember
[19:54] <zykotick9> bindi, i believe the whole point of unity is to remove setting and customization options
[19:54] <bindi> IdleOne: how is compiz related to all those administrative settings? i don't want that
[19:54] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> bindi: Just use Classic Ubuntu (You can change that at LOGIN screen. Switch the session type or something like that, you'll notice it at login screen)
[19:54] <c-beams> what is the fastest way to make an image of a 1TB hard drive?
[19:55] <jtrucks> does ubuntu 10.04 shutdown command support an option to force fsck to run on boot?
[19:55] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> zykotick9: Haha, very funny.
[19:55] <mehlo> c-beams: photocamera :-)
[19:55] <c-beams> lol
[19:55] <IdleOne> jtrucks: sudo touch /forcefsck && sudo shutdown -r now
[19:56] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> bindi: That's what Unity is using? And compiz config setting s manager sounds like something that will let you customize more.
[19:56] <macuser__> Ubuntusawr[xD], I did successfully install Ubuntu 10.04 under Windows.  I am now rebooting
[19:56] <bindi> Ubuntusawr[xD]: i don't want to configure unity, it's horrible. using classic now
[19:57] <IdleOne> bindi: if you aren't using unity why ask about settings?
[19:57] <auronandace> bindi: just bear in mind that from 11.10 gnome2 won't be an option
[19:57] <bindi> IdleOne: using classic __NOW__
[19:57] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser__: Okay. So ignore the URL I sent you earlier. I thought you were installing it the popular way (Outside of windows).
[19:57] <IdleOne> bindi: drop the attitude please.
[19:57] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser__: And congratulations.
[19:57] <bindi> IdleOne: sorry, you didnt seem to get anything I've said so far.
[19:58] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> bindi: What's so horrible about Unity? Lol, I find it the sexiest thing ever!
[19:58] <macuser__> Ubuntusawr[xD], I am hoping that I will somehow be able to use Ubuntu under Windows to do a complete install
[19:58] <jtrucks> IdleOne: what is / is mounted RO?

[20:02] <Arath> can anyone help me with my problem?
[20:02] <c-beams> Does anyone have a serious answer to my question?
[20:02] <IdleOne> c-beams: try clonezilla
[20:03] <llutz> c-beams: use dd, not fast but works. just don't use default bs
[20:03] <superlou> c-beams, dd
[20:03] <shelest> Arath: Can you plese repeat your question
[20:03] <th0r> Arath: I think you can download the package from packages.ubuntu.com
[20:03] <c-beams> llutz, can you elaborate?
[20:04] <Arath> thanks th0r
[20:04] <llutz> c-beams: dd default blocksize is 512 which is ... slow. use bs=4k or something to speed it a bit up
[20:04] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> shelest: What do you think of this?   http://www.afterthedeadline.com/
[20:04] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> !ask | Arath
[20:05] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> shelest: On that same exact page, go to "Demonstration".
[20:06] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> "With OpenOffice.org Writer: Our grammar, style, and misused word checker is available as an OpenOffice.org extension."           I'm not sure if this is true for libreOffice as well shelest.
[20:07] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> shelest:  And it's worth checking this page as well. (LibreOffice, Extensions for afterthedeadline grammar checker) http://extensions-test.libreoffice.org/extension-center/after-the-deadline-grammar-style-and-misused-word-detector

[20:09] <pythonsnake> dock*
[20:09] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: I've had an issue like that before. Before we panic.... Are you able to hover your mouse cursor over the Unity Launcher Tray?
[20:10] <pythonsnake> yeah
[20:10] <pythonsnake> "before we panic" lol
[20:10] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: Does any application names appear in text? But icons still invisible?
[20:10] <pythonsnake> Ubuntusawr[xD]: this issue doesn't apply to other apps
[20:10] <pythonsnake> I just don't see terminal's icon
[20:11] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Just the icons in Launcher tray for unity.        (But if you click to find OTHER apps on your computer, the icons then appear).
[20:11] <pythonsnake> huh?
[20:12]  * mang0 waits for pixaal
[20:12] <pythonsnake> Ubuntusawr[xD]: it's the dock..
[20:12] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: when you run terminal can you see the icon in the Launcher (dock) ?
[20:12] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: ONLY the dock? But you're able to rightclick on application and you'll see a big box of icons apppear for INTERNET,  OFFICE, GAMES, etc?
[20:13] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: no
[20:13] <pythonsnake> Ubuntusawr[xD]: yes
[20:13] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: you are either the unluckiest person in the history of clean installs or you are doing something very wrong.
[20:13] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Apparently, it's a bug/unsolved issue (To my own knowledge) for computer. Known as the "Blank/invisible unity launcher" bug. (something like that. It's on the launchpad website).
[20:13] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: I switched to using unity-2d
[20:13] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Which is GREAT.

[20:16] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: maybe a system upgrade would fix it .. :'(

[20:16] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: Give that a try.
[20:16] <krnlyng> hi, i just tried to upgrade my system and now it won't boot (as in blackscreen and modemmanager fails to start (probably other things too but thats what i see in dmesg)) some packages are marked as half-install (i don't know why, update-manager -d did not report any error) so i tried dpkg-reconfigure -a but it quits with the message: "dpkg-maintscript-helper: error: couldn't identify the package" how do i determine which package that
[20:16] <pythonsnake> Ubuntusawr[xD]: how
[20:16] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: ok, lets start from the beginning. You did a clean install correct? have you run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade ?
[20:16] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> VvWolverinevV: Lol, dun worry, mistakes like this happens to all of us.
[20:17] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: yes, no
[20:17] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> (Okay, I lied, it's only you so far today xD)
[20:17] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: Otherwise, you're better off using unity-2d
[20:17] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: btw, I seleected Reinstall
[20:17] <IdleOne> pythonsnake: ok run: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade.
[20:17] <anurag> superlou It hepls
[20:17] <pythonsnake> IdleOne: doing that :)
[20:17] <anurag> and done with installing that library
[20:18] <pythonsnake> BTW, I think that Ubuntu should compress more their packages.
[20:18] <pythonsnake> Just like Arch
[20:18] <pythonsnake> 300mb in 30mb
[20:18] <pythonsnake> It's a timewaste to dowload all this
[20:18] <anurag> <superlou > Thanks
[20:18] <krnlyng> any ideas?
[20:19] <Arath> Anyone with experience installing AL25150 wireless usb cards on ubuntu?
[20:20] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: There is a minimal installer available. (The kind that will give you packages in downloaded form, with everything upgraded, so no need to worry about upgrading).

[20:26] <greenit> hi, can any1 tell me the pros and cons of unity and gnome shell? i found some articles, but they are from feb/mar and they dont seem to be neutral, but prefer gnome shell -.-
[20:27] <DrShoggoth> greenit, play with both of them, use what you like
[20:27] <BarkingFish> !best | greenit
[20:27] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: Your problem looks exactly like this? http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/7687/screenshotnk.png
[20:27] <DrShoggoth> I personally prefer gnome shell with the bottom bar replaced by a docky instance
[20:27] <Arath> well of course there was a readme, sorry my brain is like slow right now
[20:27] <greenit> well, can i install gnome shell easy?
[20:28] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> That's what I'm having, even after the upgrades.       Running this terminal command: unity -reset                  No luck.        So I ended up installing unity-2d  which is good so far. In the future releases/updates, I hope that will be fixed.

[20:46] <Boom_Farmer> lukususagewgwge: Run that in a terminal
[20:46] <KM0201> Boom_Farmer: he apparently already has flash installed
[20:46] <Boom_Farmer> Huh
[20:46] <KM0201> according to what he said earlier, he wants to see what version he has installed.

[20:50] <DERMANN> Hello I need Help
[20:50] <DERMANN> I Need Kernel 2.6.39 that my usb 3.0 work
[20:50] <DERMANN> Should i stay with 11.04 until 11.10 is released and not to use usb 3.0 or should i install ppa kernel in 11.04 or what
[20:51] <KM0201> well, i would wait, if you use the PPA kernel and run into a problem it's unlikely you have the skills to fix it.
[20:52] <jason_hudson> hi everyone, I need some help installing (or better, running) ubuntu on a mac, according to some guides I'd need refit, my ubuntu install runs fine but in case i'd ever need any mainteance I would like to have refit at hand, now i see that it's available in ubuntu repos, could anyone provide me any info about how to use the repos one? It'd be very helpful
[20:56] <pythonsnake> IdleOne ,Ubuntusawr[xD]: This is fixed after upgrade :D
[20:57] <dirtycookie> IdleOne: hi, i just finished installing the ubuntu-restricted-extras and it still doesn't work
[20:58] <lukususagewgwge> Boom_Farmer i was install this flash but i have still this problem with youtube

[20:58] <dirtycookie> thx
[20:58] <IdleOne> dirtycookie: glad you sorted it.
[20:59] <KM0201> lukususagewgwge: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[20:59] <Boom_Farmer> lukususagewgwge: Do you have Noscript installed in your browser?
[20:59] <lukususagewgwge> 11.04
[20:59] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> pythonsnake: Awesome.
[20:59] <CanadianPirate> I have an issue with ndiswrapper
[20:59] <dr_willis> DERMANN:  11.04 and usb3 worked for me. it may depend on the chipset of the usb3 controller i guess..
 i don't now how i can check this?
[21:00] <CanadianPirate> Is it possible to change my mac address with ndiswrapper? I have already tried to edit the .conf files, but it did not work.
[21:00] <Boom_Farmer> lukususagewgwge: Wat web browser are you using?
[21:01] <lukususagewgwge> firefox 6.02\
[21:01] <Boom_Farmer> lukususagewgwge: In Firefox, go to tools> Addons, and look for NoScript or AdBlock
[21:01] <CanadianPirate> lukususagewgwge Have you installed the package flash-plugin?
[21:02] <macuser_> I am a simple end user trying to find data files on a Windows partition under Ubuntu BASH terminal.  Where does Windows keep data files?
[21:02] <lukususagewgwge> CanadianPirate yes i am install flash plugin
[21:03] <Boom_Farmer> macuser_: What sort of data files? The My Documents folder?
[21:03] <dr_willis> macuser_:  you could ask in #windows    it would depend on the file
[21:03] <ex0> yessir
[21:04] <josePHPagoda> anyone here know why I can't seem to use cgexec for launching a process in a cgroup on ubuntu 10.04?
[21:05] <macuser_> Boom_Farmer, yes, I want to destroy this user's data.  I am looking for the My Documents folder
[21:06] <Boom_Farmer> macuser_: Is it Windows XP or Vista or 7?
[21:06] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: in "C:\Users",       or "C:\Documents and Settings",
[21:06] <dr_willis> macuser_:  should be in the users directory. depends on the windows version.
[21:06] <CanadianPirate> macuser_ O_O
[21:06] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> CanadianPirate: I know right!? SHoot.
[21:06] <macuser_> Boom_Farmer, It is XP
[21:06] <josePHPagoda> Documents and Settings then
[21:07] <lukususagewgwge> Boom_Farmer i havn't this addons but i dosable all addons and still cant open youtube corectley
[21:07] <CanadianPirate> Try /media/<Windows Partition>/Documents\ and\ Setting/<Username>
[21:07] <CanadianPirate> I think that is windows format...
[21:07] <Boom_Farmer> lukususagewgwge: Did you also disable plugins? Disabling plugins would disable Flash.
[21:08] <lukususagewgwge> yes i disable plugin
[21:08] <lukususagewgwge> ok with one must be enable Boom_Farmer?
[21:08] <CanadianPirate> lukususagewgwge do you have torbutton installed?
[21:08] <Boom_Farmer> That's why. Flash is a plugin. You must enable plugins to view YouTube.
[21:08] <zelozelos> lukususagewgwge, its prob not the addons, but instead a related item, flash, goto the software center and remeove them all unless its the adobe flash installer
[21:09] <txomon> dr_willis, I can't still achive it
[21:10] <dr_willis> txomon:  assume people on irc have the attention span of a goldfish.. I dont rember your original problem..
[21:10] <dr_willis> txomon:  :) plus ive been awake for 20+ hrs now.
[21:10] <Siekacz1> ok
[21:10] <Siekacz1> so
[21:10] <Siekacz1> it's weird
[21:10] <Siekacz1> because with fglrx i can run unity 2d
[21:10] <Siekacz1> without it i got blank dektop
[21:10] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Siekacz1: fglrx?
[21:11] <Siekacz1> yup
[21:11] <josePHPagoda> the ati driver
[21:11] <KM0201> dr_willis: 20hrs?  i'd jsut be getting my ssecond wind at 20hrs.
[21:11] <KM0201> lol
[21:11] <dr_willis> KM0201:  i bet you are not a grandparent either. :P
[21:11] <rhasa> KM0201: cracker?
[21:11] <KM0201> dr_willis: that's affirmative.
[21:11] <Siekacz1> AMD drivers screwed up my  ubuntu install completely
[21:11] <KM0201> rhasa: ?..what?
[21:12] <Siekacz1> bartosz@bartosz-Dell-System-Vostro-3450:~$ aticonfig --initial
[21:12] <Siekacz1> aticonfig: No supported adapters detected
[21:12] <maintenance> hello everybody (sorry for my poor english, i 'm french user) someone know if chipset TI ACX supported by natty ?
[21:12] <dr_willis> maintenance:  what hardware is that even for?
[21:12] <lukususagewgwge> in soft center i remove flah plugin for the mozilla proguct and instal adobe flash plugin
[21:12] <ex0> yes
[21:13] <maintenance> dr_willis, D-Link DWL-650+
[21:13] <NativeForeigner> Why does it say that 32 bit is recommended. What is the advantage of 32 bit over 64 bit?
[21:13] <Mike9863> When I run ifconfig to see my MAC Address, I see two HWaddr, one for eth0 and one for eth1. How do I know which one is my MAC Address?
[21:13] <ex0> 64 bit supports more memory
[21:13] <CanadianPirate> How do you change a mac address with ndiswrapper?
[21:13] <ex0> use
[21:13] <dr_willis> NativeForeigner:  its 'idiot proofing' 32bit should work.. if you know enough to know what 64bit is.. then you know enough to reserach./decide if you need 64bit.
[21:13] <ex0> macchanger
[21:13] <edbian> NativeForeigner: it suggests 32 bit because 32 bit OS will work on 64 bit hardware but 64 bit os will NOT work on 32 bit hardware
[21:13] <CanadianPirate> Macchanger did not work.
[21:13] <hasenj> Siekacz1 ..
[21:14] <CanadianPirate> It always stayed at the original address.
[21:14] <edbian> NativeForeigner: so there is a better chance of it working if you choose 32 bit
[21:14] <th0r> CanadianPirate: you do it with ifconfig
[21:14] <dr_willis> NativeForeigner:  i always use 64bit on my hardware that supports it.
[21:14] <Siekacz1> hasenj: yup?
[21:14] <ex0> u need 64 bit processor..
[21:14] <NativeForeigner> edbian: alright, figured. I just throught that was sorta weird. I know what I"m doing with 64 bit, but was just wondering if there were underlying stability isssues or something
[21:14] <lukususagewgwge> Boom_Farmer i still have this problem
[21:14] <hasenj> you're the same guy who was asking about fglrx?
[21:14] <lukususagewgwge> meaby version of firefox is a reason?
[21:14] <Siekacz1> yup
[21:14] <maintenance> CanadianPirate, perhaps with ifconfig HW ether ...don't forget to down wireless interfae
[21:14] <CanadianPirate> th0r: That just did the same thing as with macchanger. It did not change the address
[21:14] <dr_willis> night all.
[21:14] <Persona24> What is ADD Mode called now?
[21:14] <hasenj> Siekacz1, assuming you're the same guy, I think this was the wiki page IIRC https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/FglrxInteferesWithRadeonDriver#Problem:%20%20Need%20to%20fully%20remove%20-fglrx%20and%20reinstall%20-ati%20from%20scratch
[21:15] <ex0> make sure your using macchanger correctly
[21:15] <ex0> man macchanger
[21:15] <edbian> NativeForeigner: There is very few situation where 32 bit beats out 64 bit.  I think there are still some bits of software that are actually 32 bit code in a wrapper.  I think flash is this way on linux right now
[21:15] <Boom_Farmer> lukususagewgwge: SHouldn't be.
[21:15] <CanadianPirate> maintenance: Does HW have to be capitalized? I have tried without capitilization
[21:15] <NativeForeigner> edbian: yeah, I'm fairly aware of that. When I had fedora a year and a half ago it was like that
[21:16] <CanadianPirate> ex0: I know how to use macchanger, I use it on my laptop all the time.
[21:16] <lukususagewgwge> how i can repair this strange problem with youtube site
[21:16] <NativeForeigner> driver support is better in ubuntu though, which is why I am aswitching.
[21:16] <CanadianPirate> ex0: I am trying to get a wireless adaptor working on my desktop, and it needs a changed mac
[21:16] <maintenance> CanadianPirate, sorry i don't understad "capipitalized" (i 'am french frogger eater :-) )
[21:16] <dekela> hello
[21:16] <CanadianPirate> maintenance *capitalized
[21:17] <CanadianPirate> maintenance, sorry for my spelling.
[21:18] <maintenance> Canadian non problem... i m training my english
[21:19] <Kazilla> does anyone know how to get vmwware to stop messing up the 11.04 menu?
[21:20] <Mike9863> When I run ifconfig to see my MAC Address, I see two HWaddr, one for eth0 and one for eth1. How do I know which one is my MAC Address?
[21:20] <txomon> dr_willis, the ssh stuff. I am trying svn+ssh things and I wanted to use pubkey auth
[21:20] <dekela> Hello
[21:20] <txomon> but I am not able to use it
[21:20] <spacechicken> hi - I'm trying to install 10.04 server. I keep getting a setup failed error on the set up users step
[21:20] <dekela> I really need help from macbook owners
[21:20] <CanadianPirate> mike9863 They both are, see what interface is online.
[21:20] <qin> Mike9863: Try iwconfig
[21:20] <spacechicken> can anyone help with that?
[21:21] <macuser_> If I can destroy this user's data, he will let me take the machine out of his home, and I can wipe the Windows partition and dedicate this machine to Ubuntu and put it in a school
[21:21] <dekela> Its been 3 days I am trying to install ubuntu 11.04 on my Macbook pro 5.2 (mid 2009)
[21:21] <CanadianPirate> mike9863 Find out which one is in use, then check the mac for that interface. I am going to guess the one with eth0 is correct.
[21:21] <MonkeyDust> !mac
[21:21] <dekela> I tried both the desktop live amd64 and the alternate mac64 install
[21:22] <dekela> I looked all over
[21:22] <dekela> My problem now is that I manage to install it at the end but I cannot boot from it
[21:22] <dekela> I am getting to grub
[21:22] <ju1c3> need help getting a microphone array to work on an HP dv3500, anyone have experience with this?
[21:22] <Mike9863> So should I just add both to a MAC Address Filter List for my router?
[21:22] <macuser_> I tried Documents\ and\ Settings/ no luck
[21:22] <dekela> but when I try to boot it jsut freeze
[21:22] <dekela> I tried removing splace and quiet
[21:22] <dekela> to see what is wrong
[21:22] <qin> macuser_: http://www.ubuntu-unleashed.com/2008/03/how-to-intentionally-screw-up-and-wipe.html
[21:22] <sdsds> k
[21:23] <dekela> but it just stuck on the first lines
[21:23] <CanadianPirate> macuser_ mount the windows partition, then go to the mount point. It should be pretty obvious from there (I forget the actual path to user data).
[21:23] <macuser_> CanadianPirate, I mounted the Windows partition at /media/windisk and I can see a bunch of .exe files, but no data files
[21:24] <CanadianPirate> macuser type cd then the tab key twice. Choose the appropriate directory
[21:25] <macuser_> qin heh thx, that is scary!
[21:26] <macuser_> CanadianPirate, how do I go to the mount point?
[21:27] <qin> macuser_: That is sometimes usefull. Do you want to keep windowson that machine?
[21:28] <macuser_> qin, No, I do not want to keep Windows on the machine
[21:28] <xim_> a terminal program wants me to enter some stuff from the keyboard as soon as it runs (not as arguments from the calling command but from prompts during execution) is there  something in the terminal that can spoof keyboard input so I can make it all work automatically from one command?
[21:28] <qin> macuser_: man shred
[21:28] <CanadianPirate> macuser type cd /media/windisk
[21:28] <neoclass> hi
[21:28] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Wait, are there anything you want to back up on that computer? (you're probably better off removing windows entirely from the harddrive).
[21:28] <CanadianPirate> *macuser_ cd /media/windisk
[21:29] <dekela> the mactel wiki pages are really outofdate
[21:29] <dekela> I installed grub on the boot partition
[21:29] <neoclass> how can i hide my ip adress and my proxy in ubunto ??
[21:29] <dekela> So I am not using efi booting
[21:29] <Kazilla> xim_: if you're on about the apt-get command, use the -y option so you dont have to say yes
[21:29] <neoclass> someb  know ??
[21:29] <dekela> but still no luck in booting
[21:29] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> neoclass: Go to System, select Network Proxy (From your menu)
[21:29] <xim_> Kazilla, no its other programs
[21:29] <jeremy-77> what version of ubuntu could i install to get legacy ati driver to work with a radeon mobility m6 on my laptop ?
[21:29] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> You might have to look into preferences as well.
[21:30] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> neoclass: You will have to find a way to proxy ADOBE FLASH and JAVA as well.
[21:30] <Kazilla> xim_: i'm not sure then, sorry
[21:31] <macuser_> CanadianPirate, I was root@ubuntu:/media/windisk# and I typed cd hit tab twice and then I got cd and cdparanoia and cdrecord
[21:31] <jls2> Ayone have any xp with citrix ica connection?
[21:31] <lukususagewgwge> i try to install google chrome and i thing youtube on this web browser will work good
[21:32] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I want to wipe the whole hard drive and install a clean install of Ubuntu
[21:32] <qin> macuser_: fdisk -l (output to paste.ubuntu.com)
[21:32] <xim_> Kazilla, k thx
[21:32] <CanadianPirate> macuser_ Sorry, I forgot to say put a space between cd and the tab, it does make a difference
[21:33] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: No backups? O_O                You're better off just running the CD. (The computer must be turned on with the CD in tray)
[21:34] <thomi> Hi - I'm currently running the fglrx graphics driver, but I notice that in oneiric jockey shows me the "ATI Fire GL" driver as well. What's the difference? Which should I be running?
[21:34] <sosaited> llutz, Thanks man/girl :) . I used wxHexEditor to replace few bytes of the corrupted jpeg from a working one.... and it opened without a problem . There should be a jpeg fix tool in linux :)
[21:34] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: friendly advice: backup backup backup
[21:34] <macuser_> CanadianPirate, I just typed cd space tab twice and got the same output as if I had done ls
[21:35] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Or at least still have product key for windows. O_O
[21:35] <mordof> anyone know of a link that they could give me that has the structure of the nautilus widgets listed?
[21:36] <lukususagewgwge> i check flash i install google chrome and i have problem with youtube site
[21:36] <lukususagewgwge> youtube still display only some line of text without picture
[21:36] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> lukususagewgwge: http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=95346
[21:37] <KM0201> lukususagewgwge: as far as i know, you still haven't identified what version of flash you have (i've asked you 4x)
[21:37] <macuser_> qin, I can't write the output because I am writing from a friend's Mac and trying to wipe out his Windows machine's hard drive.  The Win machine has a display issue.  Only the terminal screen is clear enough to read.  I can tell you what fdisk -l says if that would help
[21:37] <daniele> i need some help om oneiric 11.10 and nvidia gt540 not loading compiz effects on unity
[21:38] <KM0201> !11.10
[21:38] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: you know pastebin? type sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit
[21:38] <daniele> the drivers are enabled but not loading effects
[21:38] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I am trying to wipe out the HD so that I can do a clean install of Linux
[21:38] <qin> macuser_: So, two way, either "shred" to destroy files, or "dd" to overwrite harddrive, more awesome.
[21:38] <lukususagewgwge> KM0201 i have a flash ver. <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:38] <daniele> neither gnome-shell loading due to nvidia
[21:39] <macuser_> qin, thx, but there are two hard drives in this machine, and the user wants me to wipe out his data first, and then wipe out the Windows OS.
[21:39] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Is your install Ubuntu CD ready?
[21:39] <pythonsnake> hmm.
[21:40] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: What's the file name of the CD you downloaded?
[21:40] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Exact file name please.
[21:40] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> lukususagewgwge: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html               <---- To see version of flash.
[21:40] <qin> macuser_: Where is mounted first drive, put whole line.
[21:40] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I used a pressed CD with 10.04 LTS
[21:40] <pythonsnake> If "Private" folder is detected, will it be encrypted automatically ?
[21:41] <pythonsnake> or something like this?
[21:41] <AllOfMe> is there a way to install gnome3 on ubuntu 10.10 and upwards?
[21:41] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: you know pastebin? type sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit and paste it here
[21:41] <Kazilla> pythonsnake: as far as i'm aware only the home folder is set up to be encrypted
[21:41] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, I am typing to you on a different machine from the machine I am trying to install Ubuntu on.
[21:42] <darkknightcz> hi, how to start squid server? i installed it via aptitude, but it isnt service (sudo service squid start doesnt work). it isnt in init.d neither
[21:42] <lukususagewgwge> version of my flash is 10,1,999,0
[21:43] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, In other words, I am at a friend's house.  He has 2 machines, a Mac and a PC.  The PC has Windows.  We want to destroy the user data on the PC.  The PC is dual booted Ubuntu and Windows.  The PC has some serious video display issues.  Only the terminal is legible
[21:44] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, I can't paste from the PC to pastebin, unless you are saying that I can paste to pastebin from the terminal on the PC
[21:44] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: can you link the two pc over a local network? if yes, you can ssh to the remote machine
[21:44] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I am currently running Ubuntu on the PC, but I can't see the GUI display clearly.  I can only see the terminal clearly.
[21:46] <pythonsnake> how can i make sure a directory is encrypted?
[21:46] <jls2> Anyoen know how to get ubuntu to be able to cut and paste images from linux to a ICA Citrix session?
[21:46] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Look around in the menu, somewhere in System or personal preferences. Theres a program known as "Additional Drivers"
[21:46] <vilho> does anyone have an explanation why pppd throws up these errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/696353/ - I'm using 11.04 (32 bit)
[21:46] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, I am typing to you on a Mac.  The problem machine is a PC with Windows and Ubuntu.  Are you saying that I can ssh into the Ubuntu Windows machine from the Mac?
[21:46] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: It might have a good graphic card for you.
[21:47] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Ubuntu is already install though, right?
[21:47] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: missed that part, can't say
[21:47] <KM0201> macuser_: of course you can
[21:47] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], Yes, Ubuntu is already installed on a separate partition.  The owner wants the Windows user data destroyed.
[21:48] <AllOfMe> hmmm
[21:48] <KM0201> !openssh
[21:48] <AllOfMe> is he sure, macuser_?
[21:48] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: if you manage to ssh to the remote pc, you're saved
[21:48] <AllOfMe> Seems drastic
[21:48] <KM0201> mac's have an ssh utility by default i'm pretty sure.
[21:48] <KM0201> ubuntu, sudo apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client
[21:49] <tonywade> hi
[21:49] <macuser_> KM0201, k, I will get ssh
[21:49] <mkanyicy> hi tonywade
[21:49] <tonywade> hello mkanyicy
[21:50] <KM0201> macuser_: the machine you're trying to access... you'll need a valid username/password on that machine, the IP address, and if it's behind a router, you'll need to forward port 21/22 (i think, might be 20-21)
[21:51] <macuser_> KM0201, I just intalled openssh-server and openssh-client
[21:51] <macuser_> KM0201, I just installed openssh-server and openssh-client on the Ubuntu partition on the PC
[21:51] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: try this: ssh [remote user]@[remote pc] <enter>
[21:52] <KM0201> exactly...
[21:52] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: try this: ssh [remote user]@[remote ip] <enter>
[21:54] <macuser_> KM0201, How do I get the IP address of the target machine?  I tried ifconfig, but it didn't give me the iIP address
[21:54] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, How do I start a terminal on the Mac?
[21:54] <mkanyicy> macuser_: you should know it
[21:54] <KM0201> macuser_: easiest way, is to go whatismyip.com
[21:54] <dfcnvt> Is there a plugin for terminal to change color of each letter or word for every .5 second?
[21:55] <KM0201> macuser_: just keep in mind, that will be the network IP, if the machie is behind a router, you're gonna have to forward some ports
[21:55] <jls2> Are both machines on your locak network?
[21:55] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: can't say, sorry
[21:55] <mkanyicy> dfcnvt: no
[21:55] <dfcnvt> :(
[21:55] <KM0201> macuser_: apparently terminal is under application/utilities
[21:56] <KM0201> dfcnvt: that plugin wouldn't even make sense
[21:56] <abstrakt> how do I list the contents of a package from the command line
[21:56] <abstrakt> i don't know where the .deb files are
[21:56] <abstrakt> i installed via apt-get
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> does Mac work with bash?
[21:57] <abstrakt> i don't see it in the man page for apt-get or apt-cache
[21:57] <mkanyicy> !enter | abstrakt
[21:57] <KM0201> jls2: it sounded like 1 machine was remote, i don't think they're on the same network...
[21:57] <abstrakt> ?
[21:57] <KM0201> monkd: i would think so..
[21:57] <abstrakt> MonkeyDust, define "work"
[21:57] <ska> I have an old eee PC from asus, it only has 4gb of storage on it (solid state). What version, if any, can I put on it?
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> lol
[21:57] <abstrakt> MonkeyDust, have you used a mac in the past... 5 years?
[21:57] <abstrakt> 10 years? how long has OSX been out
[21:57] <MonkeyDust> abstrakt: no
[21:57] <KM0201> ska: lubuntu would probably work well.. it takes about 2.x gigs w/ a full install
[21:58] <dfcnvt> KM0201, sure it does. it's for visual reception to pick things up very quickly instead, being lost or trying to find the phrase somewhere in the text. (beside I think this plugin would be very interesting to observe)
[21:58] <patr|ck_> hello. how can i change the number of workspaces on Ubuntu 11.04.?
[21:58] <ska> KM0201: do i need a special install source?
[21:58] <abstrakt> MonkeyDust, where have you been hiding for the past 10 years that you don't know that mac has bash on it already
[21:58] <abstrakt> anyway, how do I get a list of files in a package
[21:58] <mkanyicy> abstrakt: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[21:58] <KM0201> ska: a special source?
[21:58] <ska> KM0201: i see it now..
[21:58] <lukususagewgwge> KM0201 my version of flash is 10,1,999,0
[21:59] <KM0201> ska: if you've got ubuntu-desktop, you may not have enough room to install lubuntu-desktop, id do a clean lubuntu install, but thats just me
[22:00] <ska> KM0201: yea, this think has windows.. I need to make a bootable usb on my other workstation.
[22:00] <ska> s/think/thing
[22:01] <KM0201> ska: lubuntu.net  download it and put it n a USB, and boot it and try it.
[22:01] <KM0201> ska: if you dont like it, no harm no foul.
[22:02] <aixguru> hey, does anyone know what to do if upstart has a service in a stopping state but wont clear it?
[22:02] <rbookhouse> Hey I thought I had an issue with my realtek wireless driver so I decided to follow some instructions of realteks to install theirs (basically delete the kernel module that came with ubuntu and run "make install' to install theirs)... how can I get the original one back (as I've worked out the wifi on the router was bad NOT the pc)
[22:03] <ska> KM0201: Do I need to use the USB Disk Creator tool?
[22:03] <KM0201> ska: yes
[22:03] <aixguru> I'm on 11.04 and get errors when I try and run service networking start or service networking stop due to "Unknown instance"
[22:03] <KM0201> ska: download the Lubuntu ISO from lubuntu.net (i'd get 11.04), then use the USB disk creator to put the ISO on a USB, then boot the USB on the netbook.
[22:04] <ska> KM0201: thanks.. I also hear that the new Ubuntu 11.X had an eee-pc image inside it too.
[22:04] <ska> KM0201: or something similar.
[22:04] <KM0201> ska, i don't really know about that... it has a weird interface that i guess some may compare to some netbook interfaces (called Unity) but it sucks IMO..
[22:04] <linty> Question: Does Canonicals Landscape Project work with RackSpace cloud servers? I checked the site and it says it works with Amazon EC2 but makes no mention of RackSpace
[22:04] <lukususagewgwge> and nothing with my ?
[22:05] <TheEvilPhoenix> is there a reason that 'kde-standard' does not run any network manager plugins/tools by default?  note this is  KDE installed on a standard Ubuntu, not Kubuntu.
[22:06] <pr0ton> which external portable hard disk would be best for ubuntu?
[22:06] <pr0ton> i mean, so i can create partitions and stuff on it
[22:06] <urlin2u> TheEvilPhoenix, open the NM in ubuntu and click all users and auto.
[22:06] <TheEvilPhoenix> urlin2u:  how would i go about doing that?  there's no NM applet/tool loading by default
[22:06] <TheEvilPhoenix> or do I have to install networkmanager-kde?
[22:06] <TheEvilPhoenix> or w/e it is
[22:06] <urlin2u> TheEvilPhoenix, in UBUNTU.
[22:07] <TheEvilPhoenix> urlin2u:  ah okay
[22:07] <urlin2u> :D
[22:07] <linty> @pr0ton - i use an external enclosure with a 7200 rpm hard drive installed and it works great
[22:07] <pr0ton> linty, which brand?
[22:07] <TheEvilPhoenix> urlin2u:  i still need a network management interface for KDE though ;P
[22:07] <urlin2u> TheEvilPhoenix, that will make it run, or  should, when you add another desktop, the original neesd ti be set this waty.
[22:08] <urlin2u> to*
[22:08] <jls2> Anyone know how to get cut and paste working for images between Ubuntu and a Citrix session (Windows)?
[22:09] <pythonsnake> Hi
[22:09] <pythonsnake> Does Ubuntu have turbo boost support ? i5
[22:09] <linty> @ pr0ton - Antec
[22:09] <pr0ton> Seagate or WD doesnt cause any issues right?
[22:10] <pr0ton> (like i dont void warranty or anything is it)
[22:10] <TheEvilPhoenix> urlin2u:  i see.  is there a way, though, to get a network manager applet into KDE?  kind of a requirement in order to use the VPNs i've got configured
[22:10] <Boom_Farmer> pythonsnake: Yes, ubuntu supports overclocking.
[22:10] <LukaszTarkowski> Hi people
[22:10] <pythonsnake> Not really overclocking.. Turbo Boost
[22:10] <LukaszTarkowski> I was looking for solution to my problem Ubuntu won't detect Momentus® XT Solid State Hybrid Drives
[22:10] <urlin2u> TheEvilPhoenix, if you do what I suggest I believe you will have one.
[22:10] <LukaszTarkowski> I cannot find it
[22:10] <aixguru> jls2: normal text copy paste should work if I recall right, but copy and past of objects does not go through between windows and citrix.  there is no way I have found to make that work or documentation surrounding it
[22:11] <linty> @ pr0ton - they are meant to work with any internal hard drive you want
[22:11] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, I was able to ssh into the Ubuntu PC, and I was able see the contents of /media/windisk, but it is the same thing that I am seeing on the Ubuntu PC
[22:11] <LukaszTarkowski> Why won't Ubuntu see my partititons at all
[22:11] <linty> any internal 3.5 hard drive i should say
[22:11] <jls2> aixguru, thanks. I havent been able to find anything either :/
[22:11] <LukaszTarkowski> This time I will stay and wait for an answer
[22:11] <Jordan_U> LukaszTarkowski: Can you pastebin the output of "sudo parted -l"?
[22:11] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: in terminal, type sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit and paste it here
[22:12] <LukaszTarkowski> I don't have Ubuntu installed
[22:12] <LukaszTarkowski> Won't detected it Jordan_U
[22:12] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: i mean: on the remote machine
[22:12] <aixguru> jls2: in general the citrix client under linux seems to be a bit more limited.  I have also run into the same thing under Mac OS X.
[22:12] <urlin2u> TheEvilPhoenix, the kubuntu is considered another user, by the nm, so auto connect and all users, in the edit of ubuntu's NM
[22:13] <pythonsnake> is there any app for turbo boost ?
[22:13] <Jordan_U> LukaszTarkowski: Please boot from an Ubuntu LiveCD/USB, run "sudo parted -l" and pastebin the output.
[22:13] <LukaszTarkowski> ok I will be back
[22:14] <LukaszTarkowski> let me make the bottable usb
[22:14] <jls2> aixguru, yeah. Seems like they did just enough to get it to work. No real perks. A shame, because I wanted to cut and paste my failboat pics from firefox into Outlook ;)
[22:15] <aixguru> Does anyone know of a way to get bonding working properly under 11.04 for NICs?  The most current docs online show the 10.x and up configs, but it appears to be broken.
[22:16] <aixguru> I'm running into issues with using the bond-slaves tag not wanting to ifenslave the devices, and also without bringing the eth devices up first as ifaces, it leaves them down after they are added as slaves to the bond0 device
[22:17] <Jordan_U> LukaszTarkowski: I'll be gone for about half an hour. Your problem is most likely an invalid partition table. Parted will tell you what exactly is invalid about it and "fixparts" will likely be able to fix it: http://www.rodsbooks.com/fixparts/
[22:17] <Kazilla> does anyone know why the ubuntu looks weird in vmware? and why i cant change it's appearance?
[22:18] <mukti> What do u mean
[22:18] <Kazilla> *ubuntu not the ubuntu
[22:18] <sosaited> is there any tool in Ubuntu/linux with which I can check a file's creation/modification date on a webserver ?
[22:18] <Kazilla> well its showing grey bars insead of the dark brown/orange ones
[22:18] <MonkeyDust> sosaited: try ls -l
[22:19] <sosaited> MonkeyDust, For a file residing on a website.
[22:19] <LukaszTarkowski> thanks Jordan_U will try it
[22:19] <Jordan_U> LukaszTarkowski: You're welcome.

[22:27] <robot-army> I am having trouble getting Transmission to start via Start-Up programs. (Natty) It gives me a message relating to "Transmission is already running".  I can see that transmission-gtk is in fact an open process, but hung.  If I force close it and open Transmission from the program menu, it works.  Any ideas?
[22:27] <Peste_Bubonica> randomcola, I cant see Grub...
[22:27] <Peste_Bubonica> :)
[22:27] <Peste_Bubonica> only a black screen..

[22:28] <io> Kazilla: can you explain what "looks like this" means?
[22:28] <randomcola> I just installed a couple days ago
[22:28] <jrtech> Peste_Bubonica:  I believe only if you daulboot you see grub
[22:29] <Kazilla> io: i provided a link
[22:29] <Peste_Bubonica> jrtech, I have dual boot
[22:29] <DaZ> gtk theme seems to be pretty... default :f
[22:29] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: am thinking :)
[22:29] <Peste_Bubonica> i belive that it can be some kind of problem with framebuffer..
[22:29] <Peste_Bubonica> I cant see boot progress...
[22:29] <mukti> Randomcola what video card are u using
[22:29] <io> Kazilla: yes, I didn't ask for a link. I asked what you meant by "looks like this"?
[22:29] <Peste_Bubonica> I only press ENTER, see my harddisk light blinking, and the sytem loads...
[22:29] <LukaszTarkowski> help please here is my sudo parted -l

[22:30] <KM0201> macuser_: can you pastebin the output of   mount
[22:31] <jrtech> Well I am not sure what issue.  Your installation of ubuntu working.?
[22:31] <sanesto123> Hello, I installed ubuntuchroot on my hp touchpad inside webos, and i'm wondering if there is a way to be able to connect ssh to that ubuntuchroot, The problem is that ubuntuchroot have the same ip as the webos, is there a solution for that? thank you
[22:31] <LukaszTarkowski> my disk won't detect ubuntu  jrtech
[22:31] <randomcola> I will mention, when I install the "additional drivers" it stalls on boot, I did "acpi=off nomodeset xforcevesa to boot with additional drivers and removed them
[22:32] <Kazilla> has anyone here installed ubuntu on vmware ever??
[22:32] <io> Kazilla: ask them why they're messing with it then
[22:32] <mukti> Look for an ATI control panel or video settings in the systems menu. U should be able to configure an external monitor
[22:32] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, k, thx very much, MonkeyDust
[22:32] <randomcola> mukti: I get an error with that installed. it won't open the control center
[22:32] <Kazilla> io: thanks for the attitude and nohelpwhatsoever
[22:33] <rypervenche> Kazilla: haha. Why not use virtualbox? It's in the repositories.
[22:33] <jrtech> LukaszTarkowski: was it working before?
[22:33] <LukaszTarkowski> yes with the older disk I had jrtech
[22:33] <LukaszTarkowski> When I bought the new one it sopped
[22:33] <KM0201> macuser_: can you pastebin the output of    mount
[22:34] <macuser_> KM0201, sorry, I didn't understand that.  You want me to pastebin the output of what?  Just the mount dir?  would that be $ sudo /mount | pastebinit ?
[22:34] <urlin2u> LukaszTarkowski, is the HD guid?
[22:34] <jrtech> ok so it not detecting your new hdd?
[22:34] <MonkeyDust> macuser_: at this point, you need nfs, but i don't know that on a mac
[22:34] <mukti> Try to get updated drivers or Linux compatible control panel
[22:34] <LukaszTarkowski> urlin2u, the hdd is hybrid and part ssd
[22:34] <KM0201> macuser_: no, just mount      mount | pastebinit
[22:35] <urlin2u> LukaszTarkowski, I saw another with one of those last week i forget the manufacturers name
[22:35] <LukaszTarkowski> I can give you my manufacturer name
[22:36] <jrtech> check your bios make sure it is avai,able there

[22:36] <randomcola> there is so many questions here! :-o
[22:36] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: So are you backing up? Or clearing the windows drive?
[22:37] <MonkeyDust> mount and df -h look very strange
[22:37] <KM0201> MonkeyDust: i agree
[22:37] <urlin2u> LukaszTarkowski, didn't see if the other,may have been you got it working, is it a guid, gpt as well?
[22:37] <iradnik> Hey folks. MY server already has ipv6 running great, but I just got myself a /64 and I want to configure the server to use more ips. First off I know I need to configure the server to stop using dhcp and be static, i've found the syntax for ipv4 for not v6. Any pointers?
[22:37] <jrtech> LukaszTarkowski:  it won't detect it if uour bios is not seeing your hdd
[22:38] <LukaszTarkowski> yeah how come windows works jrtech
[22:38] <LukaszTarkowski> I tried playing with bios settings jrtech
[22:38] <LukaszTarkowski> nothing helped
[22:38] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I have not solved it, no.  I am trying to delete the contents of this users' Windows data, so that I can take the machine out of his home and give it to a school, where real Linux gurus will install Ubuntu on it for the kids
[22:38] <MonkeyDust>  anywayz, gotta go, almost 1 am on this side of the planet
[22:39] <macuser_> MonkeyDust, thx!
[22:39] <Boom_Farmer> macuser_: Why can't you do it in person?
[22:39] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: I would had just formated the windows partition?

[22:39] <al_nz1> can someone please help me? networking has stopped on my PC, it should just dhcp from router
[22:39] <grant99929> i need some help with a 11.10 install, i can login to my main account
[22:39] <Boom_Farmer> And is just deleting everything on the drive a valid proposition?
[22:39] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Secure delete it? O_O
[22:39] <KM0201> or does it need backed up, or what?
[22:39] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Boom_Farmer: That's what I've been saying from the start.
[22:40] <randomcola> al_nz1: can you tell me more?
[22:40] <jrtech> what version of windows you habe on tje jdd?
[22:40] <Boom_Farmer> XP
[22:40] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> I'm like "why not just blow it up already". Stick dynamites in stones, break it's bones!
[22:40] <randomcola> al_nz1: is it a fresh install or did you just update?
[22:40] <al_nz1> randomcola: sure. its onboard ethernet with cable plugged in. the little networking icon shows red cross
[22:40] <pythonsnake> how to open a new window with unity dock ?
[22:40] <al_nz1> and I cant ping anything, not even router
[22:41] <grant99929> i updated to 11.10 from 11.04 and now i cant login
[22:41] <macuser_> Boom_Farmer, This machine has a problem with the visual display.  Only the terminal is legible.  The GUI is not legible under either Windows or Ubuntu.  Therefore, I must find the Windows data under Ubuntu, delete the user date, then take the machine out of here, install a new video card in it, and then install ubuntun
[22:41] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, there is a addon to the dock if you open it tha will allow that
[22:41] <Boom_Farmer> Ah
[22:42] <LukaszTarkowski> my paste bin shaws lba at the boot end
[22:42] <LukaszTarkowski> shows*&
[22:42] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: middle click
[22:42] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I am concerned that If I destroy the Windows partition, I won't be able to reboot the machine at all, not even under Linux.
[22:42] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, click on the docky icon-docklets-work place switcher
[22:42] <al_nz1> been installed for ages
[22:43] <al_nz1> havent rebooted in a while tho
[22:43] <KM0201> macuser_: why would that be a concern?
[22:43] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], there are 2 hard drives on the target PC.  I need to wipe the Windows data off of both of those partitions.
[22:43] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: ...
[22:43] <DeltaEpsilon> hi
[22:43] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: not docky, unity dock
[22:43] <DeltaEpsilon> how do I create an admin user on ubuntu server??
[22:43] <macuser_> KM0201, Sorry, why would what be a concern
[22:43] <grant99929> does anyone know why i cant log in on my 11.10? i just upgraded and now when i log in, it puts be back to the login screen...  help me :(
[22:43] <TheEvilPhoenix> DeltaEpsilon:  create a normal user, add them to the sudoers file
[22:43] <pythonsnake> grant99929: #ubuntu+1
[22:44] <TheEvilPhoenix> the same way you create a normal user anywhere
[22:44] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: I would have honestly just    wipe-out the whole entire drive.  And install with command line.
[22:44] <KM0201> why would you be concerned that if you do a clean install ubuntu, you would not be able to access it?
[22:44] <grant99929> thnx :)
[22:44] <TheEvilPhoenix> DeltaEpsilon:  #ubuntu-server for all the server CLI help though
[22:44] <glassresistor> i just baught a magic mouse and have laptop which has this kind of touchpad http://www.bhagwad.com/blog/2010/technology/alps-synaptics-touchpad-configuration-in-lucid-lynx-ubuntu-10-04.html/
[22:44] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, ah sorry about there is a switch in the dock.
[22:44] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> TheEvilPhoenix: Nice name.
[22:44] <pythonsnake> how tto tile in unity ?
[22:44] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Is that computer on the internet?
[22:44] <TheEvilPhoenix> !offtopic | Ubuntusawr[xD]
[22:45] <glassresistor> to make side scrolling work on the touchpad i have to turn it into a ps2 mouse, which klls the touchpad tab in the mouse settings
[22:45] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> TheEvilPhoenix: I'm giving support here. Lol.
[22:45] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], The target PC is on the Internet, yes
[22:45] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, it is also called a work place switcher.
[22:45] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: With WIFI or Wired connection?
[22:45] <LukaszTarkowski> hmm any ideas
[22:45] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, if you enabled the cube it does not work though.
[22:45] <jrtech> LukaszTarkowski:  You can also try a different version ubuntu and see if ot would detect uour hdd
[22:46] <LukaszTarkowski> i tried the 32 bit as well wouldn't budge jrtech
[22:46] <al_nz1> can I reset networking settings to factory defaults?
[22:46] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], The target PC is on the Internet with a wired connection
[22:46] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Oh good. Terminal font and text appears and works properly, right?
[22:46] <LukaszTarkowski> I have Ubuntu on the external drive it installed fine there
[22:46] <glassresistor> i have utouch installed and touchegg, but the magic mouse one does left/right click and scrolls with 1 or 2 fingers in all directions, i've tested the input and i see it regonizes up to 3 maybe 4 fingers but touchegg doesn't seem to do any gestures
[22:47] <glassresistor> im using the default config
[22:47] <glassresistor> amy ideas?
[22:47] <LukaszTarkowski> the hdd won't dtect
[22:47] <LukaszTarkowski> I am only having with this hdd internal one
[22:47] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], Yes, the terminal font is legible and works well
[22:48] <jrtech> LukaszTarkowski: Try to partition the hdd first and then install ubuntu
[22:48] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: You intended to install     Ubuntu LTS, right?             Otherwise,     otherwise, get the lastest version (Ubuntu Natty 11.04)                   I believe Minimal install is the beter option: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[22:49] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Don't use "wubi", lol.
[22:49] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: =(
[22:49] <LukaszTarkowski> did that as well wouldnt work jrtech
[22:50] <xim_> why does [gksudo gnome-terminal] work, and [gnome-terminal -e "bash"] works, but [gksudo gnome-terminal -e "bash"]  does nothing??
[22:50] <LukaszTarkowski> I will try to disable sata
[22:50] <LukaszTarkowski> then install
[22:51] <xim_> nm got it
[22:51] <jrtech> try that might work
[22:51] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Then you can follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Tasksel
[22:52] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: But you're selecting the option for Ubuntu Desktop.
[22:52] <KM0201> macuser_: if you're familiar w/ live CD's and how they work.. you could also just have someone boot a Live CD on that machine, and remote desktop the live CD, and run the installer from your machine (thats how i install ubuntu on grandmas machine)
[22:53] <KM0201> it's really not that difficult... not really sure what the issue is.
[22:53] <ex0> nice job KM0201
[22:53] <Drone4four> is there an alternate application to wine that does the same thing for Mac OS X that wine normally does for Windows?
[22:54] <ex0> #mac would kno
[22:54] <Drone4four> i want to emulate a program designed for Mac OS X on Ubuntu...
[22:54] <Drone4four> ty ex0, i'll try there
[22:54] <fus10nx> Hi All...is there a good web based piece of software that I can install that will give me useful information about my server such as free disk space, networking information, etc. ?
[22:54] <KM0201> ex0: it probably sounds harder than it is... certainly easier thana mini ISO, or any sort of network install (at least IMO)
[22:54] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Does that sound like a good idea to you?
[22:54] <ex0> its not hard but yea i know what you mean
[22:54] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> KM0201: He/she installing this on a remote computer? O_O
[22:54] <KM0201> Ubuntusawr[xD]: i know
[22:54] <KM0201> i've done it multiple times
[22:55] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> KM0201: I just want to see why it's such a trouble for macuser_ is all.
[22:55] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I can't see any screen other than the terminal.  I can't even see the boot options.  I had to guess at installing ubuntu from inside Windows.
[22:55] <KM0201> macuser_: you are making this way way harder than it needs to be
[22:56] <mongy> a mac os version of wine?   mine?
[22:56] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Is it a remote computer, that you can not access at this time right now?
[22:56] <RocketLauncher> Yo Yo official ubantu channel how does one do into 1280x960? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/696380/ i think i'm doinitrong
[22:56] <macuser_> KM0201, Sorry, I don't know any other way to do it.  I am a really simple end user
[22:56] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Or is the machine infront of you?
[22:56] <KM0201> macuser_: the machine is remote, correct?
[22:56] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I have 2 machines in front of me
[22:57] <KM0201> ..
[22:57] <pippino> hello
[22:57] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Oh then use then STAY AWAY from "wubi".
[22:57] <iradnik> Anyone have an example /etc/network/interfaces file showing how to have one ipv4 address (static) and multiple ipv6 addresses (also static)?
[22:57] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I am typing to you on a Mac.  The machine I am trying to wipe out is also in front of me, but the display is illegible in everything except the terminal
[22:57] <KM0201> macuser_: so the machine your'e SSH'ing into, is sitting right next to you?
[22:57] <pippino> !list
[22:57] <KM0201> macuser_: ok, now we're getting somewhere
[22:57] <macuser_> KM0201, yes, the machine that I am sshing into is in front of me
[22:57] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Is it 32bit computer, or a 64bit?
[22:58] <KM0201> have you tried booting a live CD on the machine?
[22:58] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], It is a 32 bit
[22:58] <urlin2u> macuser_, so what is your intention when up wipe it
[22:58] <macuser_> KM0201, yes, I have tried to use a live CD.  I can't see the GUI display hardly at all.  I can sort of see it, but the details are not legible.
[22:58] <ska> KM0201: The lubuntu iso doesn't seem to be liked by usb-creator.. not sure why.
[22:58] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> KM0201: Something is wrong with the display macuser_ said earlier.
[22:59] <KM0201> ska: it works fine, i've done it numerous times
[22:59] <macuser_> urlin2u, yes, i want to wipe the PC's hard drives.  It has 2 hard drives.  I need to wipe them both.
[22:59] <urlin2u> macuser_, did you try a nomodeset with the live cd?
[23:00] <ska> KM0201: for some reason when I click on it, the "make disk" greys out.
[23:00] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso         <---- Ubuntu 11.04                 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso   <------ Ubuntu 10.04
[23:00] <Boom_Farmer> How do I set up a TUN/TAP bridge interface for a VM?
[23:00] <KM0201> ska: did the ISO completely download?
[23:00] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Formininal terminal install.
[23:00] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: You still want to SSH-install it? or just pop in a cd/USB-drive on that second computer?
[23:00] <KM0201> macuser_: does the machine boot windows normally?
[23:01] <macuser_> KM0201, yes, the machine boots Windows normtally, but the display is still illegible.
[23:02] <pythonsnake> Tell me some cool stuff!
[23:02] <KM0201> macuser_: ok, so obviously its some sort of hardware problem.
[23:02] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], KM0201 yes, it is probably a bad video card.
[23:02] <ex0> or cord..
[23:02] <ex0> vga...whathave you
[23:02] <pythonsnake> =/
[23:02] <macuser_> KM0201, Yes, it is a bad video card
[23:03] <KM0201> macuser_: if it has a video card, and Onboard Video... can you remove the video card, and hook onto the onboard video?
[23:03] <KM0201> (assuming its not the onboard video that is bad)
[23:03] <macuser_> KM0201, No onboard video
[23:03] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_:  Can you use a USB or a CD drive on that "second computer"?
[23:03] <KM0201> macuser_: really?... thats pretty unusual nowdays.
[23:03] <fus10nx> any idea why I am getting this error when trying to use apt-get ?
[23:03] <fus10nx> http://pastebin.com/GbWN4vBk
[23:03] <ska> KM0201: I think so, but I can't find any md5sums to compare
[23:03] <macuser_> KM0201, I checked carefully for the onboard video, there is none
[23:03] <fus10nx> really annoying
[23:04] <KM0201> hmm
[23:04] <KM0201> macuser_: is it a custom PC, or is it a "store bought".. if a store bought, do you know the make/model?
[23:04] <fus10nx> or how can I clear out the apt-get cache
[23:05] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I can use the CD drive on the Ubuntu machine, that is how I installed Ubuntu on it.  But the display is so bad, I had to guess as I was installing Ubuntu from inside Windows.  I was not able to set the machine to boot from the CD
[23:05] <ramon> how do i get bash to automatically excute a command every time i manually enter a command?
[23:06] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> macuser_: Push the F12 key repeatedly before the computer start, It's one of these F buttons.
[23:06] <fus10nx> i cant install anything via apt-get now, it's like the hamachi one is stuck in a queue
[23:06] <KM0201> macuser_: what make/model/model# is this PC?
[23:06] <macuser_> KM0201, it is a Dell Precision 340
[23:06] <jackjon89> hey, wondering if anyone can help.  Just installed "Getting things GNOME" and everythings gone abit bonkers.... thinking about uninstalling it as it keeps crashing and i have to force close.  but not the operating system gui looks different ? like windows 98 style... can anyone help please ?
[23:07] <ska> KM0201: Should I dl the "mini.iso" for netboot instead of the full iso?
[23:07] <fus10nx> nevermind got it
[23:07] <KM0201> ska: if you want
[23:07] <KM0201> ubuntulog_: thats tough to do when you can't see the display
[23:07] <KM0201> sorry Ubuntusawr[xD] see above
[23:08] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I tried to push the F12 key repeatedly, but that didn't work.  I was able to push the f2 key repeatedly, and I was able to get into setup, but I was not able to see the display well enough to see what was going on on the display
[23:09] <Bizzeh> hi, is there a WUBI installer for 11.10 beta 2?
[23:09] <KM0201> macuser_: so do you not have an old computer/video card to pop in the machine.
[23:09] <KM0201> Bizzeh: not that i know of, and you'd be completely out of your mind to try it if there was
[23:09] <robot-army> I am having trouble getting Transmission to start via Start-Up programs. (Natty) It gives me a message relating to "Transmission is already running".  I can see that transmission-gtk is in fact an open process, but hung.  If I force close it and open Transmission from the program menu, it works.  Any ideas?
[23:09] <ddelrio1986> How do I allow apache to write to a folder in my home directory?
[23:10] <macuser_> KM0201, I don't have a video card here in the owner's home.  I have a number of video cards at the school, probably, but the owner of the PC won't let me take the computer out of his home without securely destroying the data first
[23:10] <Bizzeh> KM0201: why, the installation procedure would be roughly identical, its just the files/configs installed to the virtual drive that are different
[23:11] <jpmh> I have a touch screen that I want to get working - lshal and lsusb both show it as 0408 4002 - so I added a /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules with that device and an alias there - when I boot I still just see hiddev0, hiddev1 and hiddev2 - what am I missinbg here
[23:11] <KM0201> Bizzeh: lol, ok sport...
[23:11] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Bizzeh: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#How_do_I_install_Wubi_on_a_machine_with_no_Internet_connection.3F
[23:11] <KM0201> macuser_: so basically you want to format the hard drive, then take the machine to school and fix it.
[23:12] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> Bizzeh: In fact, I miss-read, sorry. I do not see any avaible for 11.10. And like KM0201 said, that would be rather weird.
[23:12] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> o_O
[23:12] <KM0201> Ubuntusawr[xD]: beyond weird, i'm thinking more like "glutton for punishment"
[23:13] <Bizzeh> KM0201: create file of static size, zero the file, mount that file as a drive, install ubuntu to that virtual drive. install grub, tell grub where that file is and to mount it and boot
[23:13] <macuser_> KM0201, yes
[23:13] <urlin2u> Bizzeh, probably not wubi will download the latest release automatically.
[23:13] <Bizzeh> simplified process, but between releases, there shouldnt be any difference between how its installed
[23:13] <Bizzeh> if there is, wubi is built wrong
[23:13] <KM0201> macuser_: hmm, if you can boot a live CD on the machine, and see well enough to open a terminal and install ssh... you could SSH into the machine, and use Fdisk to format the drives.
[23:13] <macuser_> KM0201, If I can delete the user's data off of both drives, I can take the machine to a school that uses Linux, and it will be used by kids
[23:14] <KM0201> Bizzeh: lol, ok.. use that "simplified process"..lol
[23:14] <urlin2u> Bizzeh, wubi is meant for just trying out Ubuntu, it has its limitations
[23:14] <KM0201> Bizzeh: just make sure you have a thorough backup before doing so.
[23:14] <KM0201> macuser_: ok, now i understand the problem.
[23:14] <macuser_> KM0201, I can't boot into a live CD, because I can't see the setup screen.
[23:15] <ramon> how do i get bash to play a sound every time i enter a command?
[23:15] <KM0201> ok.
[23:15] <KM0201> macuser_: you say you're on a laptop now?
[23:15] <macuser_> KM0201, yes, I am on a notebook Mac that is ssh'd into the target machine
[23:16] <KM0201> macuser_: ok.. just out of curiosity.. hav eyou verified that it's the video card that is bad, and not th edisplay?... in otherwords, shut down your mac and the PC, use the display cable that goes from the PC/Display, and connect it to your Mac (so the display cable will go from the PC, to your mac)... if the display is bad, you should see the display on your mac w/ no problem.
[23:17] <macuser_> KM0201, I am also on the target machine, and I can see the terminal, but that is all.  I can kind of sort of see the Ubuntu display, but only general stuff, like I can click on Firefox, and I can go to google, but I can't read what I google
[23:18] <macuser_> KM0201, This Mac notebook has no VGA jack to connect to the display.
[23:18] <KM0201> what?...
[23:18] <KM0201> you don't connect your mac to the display
[23:18] <KM0201> you connec tthe PC to your mac... turn the PC on, and it will use your mac as a display (even my cheap acer laptop that is 8yrs old has this capability)
[23:19] <jcmarini> gday yall
[23:19] <KM0201> macuser_: look at your mac closely, you should have a "VGA IN" port somewhere on there
[23:19] <pythonsnake> how to log out from terminal ??
[23:19] <petester> i'm considering buying a thinkpad, anybody have any issues loading up ubuntu onto one of those?
[23:19] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, exit
[23:20] <devish> !time
[23:20] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: it exits terminal...........
[23:20] <pythonsnake> how to move mouse with keyboard ?
[23:20] <macuser_> KM0201, The owner tells me that he has tested the PC's monitor on the notebook that I am typing on, and the monitor tested out perfectly.
[23:20] <jcmarini> is there apps to reconfigure check dvd detection..mine does not detect new blank dvd inserted
[23:20] <KM0201> ok
[23:21] <macuser_> KM0201, In other words, the owner has confirmed that it is not a problem with the monitor.
[23:21] <pythonsnake> how to move mouse with keyboard ? ??
[23:21] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, you mean logout of a root terminal, or when you run something that has no complete, such as?
[23:21] <KM0201> macuser_: right, i follow.
[23:21] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: log out from unity
[23:22] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, not sure the web will tell you if needed.
[23:22] <pythonsnake> urlin2u: I disabled touchpad by accident
[23:22] <pythonsnake> i'm stuck
[23:23] <ddelrio1986> How do I add a user to a group?
[23:23] <urlin2u> pythonsnake, you can do a soft reboot crtl-alt-prtsc REISUB slowly or REISUO for off.
[23:23] <th0r> pythonsnake: try 'synclient TouchpadOff=0'
[23:24] <Ubuntusawr[xD]> ddelrio1986: Go to system/System Administration or preferences -> You'll then see soemthing about Users And Groups.
[23:24] <jcmarini> pythonsnake; go to control panel scrool to keyboard prefs
[23:24] <pythonsnake> th0r: doesn't work
[23:25] <ex0> useradd (username) -g (groupname)
[23:25] <th0r> pythonsnake: was worth a shot...trying to avoid extremes like logging out or rebooting <smile>
[23:26] <ddelrio1986> I have a folder in my home directory that I want the user www-data to be able to write to. Should I change the group of the folder to www-data or should I just add the www-data user to the group for my account (daniel)?
[23:26] <ex0> add user to group
[23:26] <ddelrio1986> ex0,  Thanks!
[23:26] <ex0> np
[23:27] <Flannel> ddelrio1986: No, don't do that.
[23:27] <ddelrio1986> Flannel, why?
[23:27] <Flannel> ddelrio1986: because it's incorrect :)
[23:27] <jcmarini>  my dvd burner shows up on disk utility as having unknown media of 1.1 gig but it is physically empty help please
[23:27] <mnemonic76> I am using the command find /source_directory/ -name "*.wav" -exec cp  -ri {} /media/raid0/WAV/ \; to copy recursively all the wav files found, it works but does not recreate the directory structure. how can i do this?
[23:28] <ddelrio1986> Flannel, so I shouldn't add the www-data user to the daniel group?
[23:28] <Flannel> ddelrio1986, ex0: you either want useradd -G group -a user, or (the easier and less error prone): adduser user group
[23:28] <ex0> yes he would get the point, i forgot the -a
[23:28] <Flannel> ex0: and -g vs -G
[23:29] <ddelrio1986> So adduser instead of useradd?
[23:29] <Flannel> which is why I suggest you use adduser instead of useradd, it's obviously easier to remember and not get wrong :)
[23:29] <Flannel> ddelrio1986: yeah, adduser username groupname
[23:29] <ex0> yes
[23:29] <urlin2u> jcmarini, I would not worry about that so does mine
[23:29] <macuser_> KM0201, I am going to be leaving soon, I think, unless you have anything else to suggest.  You have been very helpful, thanks!
[23:29] <ddelrio1986> Thanks guys!
[23:29] <mingdao_> Can someone tell me how to get the Gnome 3 desktop environment?
[23:29] <ex0> thougth thats what i said, my fault
[23:29] <macuser_> Ubuntusawr[xD], I also want to thank you for your help.
[23:30] <KM0201> macuser_: well, if you could somehow get the live CD to boot, you could install ssh, then ssh into the machine, and fdisk the drives.
[23:30] <urlin2u> mingdao_,what release are you running?
[23:30] <jcmarini> ok seeya
[23:30] <pythonsnake> I Have disabled touchpad with tpuchpad indicator
