[17:01] <Bsims> lantizia: gnome did, and no its not standard
[17:01] <bullgard4> eutheria: I understood that well. I gave you only one example.
[17:01] <llutz_> lantizia: there are just too many applications not using those and they will drive users into trouble if he rely on those
[17:02] <lantizia> Bsims, llutz: from what I can tell they aren't created if enabled=false in /etc/xdg/user-dirs.conf - and xdg is the base spec from FD
[17:02] <eutheria> bullgard4, sometimes i don't do a good job of making myself understoof
[17:02] <eutheria> err understood
[17:02] <llutz_> lantizia: which is just another "club" of devs creating new rules. they might be usefull, some day when all distros/devs follow them
[17:03] <llutz_> lantizia: until then, _i_ wouldn't give too much on it
[17:03] <lantizia> llutz, i'll just do ~/.game
[17:03] <bullgard4> eutheria: To get a more constructive solution, please consult Launchpad - bugs - Empathy.
[17:04] <lantizia> llutz, just wanted to be absolutely sure there wasn't somewhere better for the save games since it's user-created documents not config
[17:04] <llutz_> lantizia: better to use the name-of-the-game, to make it clear what it belongs to
[17:04] <lantizia> llutz, yeah that was an example lol
[17:04] <llutz_> lantizia: too generic when talking about games (for me) ;)
[17:04] <llutz_> sry
[17:05] <Bsims> lantizia: and don't worry too much about free-desktop... everytime Gnome reinvents the wheel (NOW with 7 sides for a smoother ride)... they stick it on freedesktop and say its now a standard rewrite everything to how we are doing it this week

[17:27] <resno> Sharpshooter: apt-get purge firefox...?
[17:27] <resno> Sharpshooter: i dont know the package name, but use purge
[17:27] <MonkeyDust> Sharpshooter  delete the .config file in /home/your_user
[17:27] <rumpe1> Sharpshooter, apt-get purge will remove the package and it's system configuration, you have to remove the user-profiles manually.
[17:28] <madoo> sorry i am here naw
[17:28] <resno> rumpe1: i thought purge removed everything... intersting
[17:28] <madoo> i install kubuntu with 10.10 with xubuntu
[17:28] <Sharpshooter> rumpe1, Where is the user profiles stored in ubuntu ?
[17:28] <madoo> but kubuntu didnt installit
[17:28] <edbian> Sharpshooter, sudo apt-get purge firefox   AND then remove your .mozilla/firefox/ folder
[17:28] <rumpe1> resno, no. The package management should never delete user data. :)

[17:34] <linkcis> I'm in gnome3, was wandering does anyone know a system monitor app that works good in gnome3? I tried gnome-system-monitor for it and it caused my gnome3 not to start anymore.
[17:34] <Amdpc> Hi Friends....I am unable to start Ubuntu 10.10. It is starting like a terminal and saying Busybox v1.15.3 .....built in shell (ash). What to do ?
[17:34] <Abhijit> linkcis, what did you done? just launched that app? and just launching it caused gnome3 to crash?
[17:36] <ginger_> hi
[17:36] <linkcis> Abhijit: I installed it through the terminal like sudo apt-get install gnome... then it froze up my gnome 3. I restarted gnome 3 wouldnt start at all. I had to go into one of the CTRL ALT F3 things. Remove it that extension and purge it at the same time then restart and it finally let gnome 3 load.
[17:36] <Abhijit> ok

[18:11] <XeonBloomfield> Hello
[18:11] <XeonBloomfield> What means only "recovering journal" information after mounting unclean removed ext4 file system?
 It means that there is rather no problems with data?
[18:11] <Abhijit> !unetbootin | msterbrewer
[18:11] <msterbrewer> thanks
[18:12] <MonkeyDust> XeonBloomfield  journalling is something ext4 has and ext3 has not
[18:13] <XeonBloomfield> MonkeyDust: I am asking if only "recovering journal" from fsck during mounting of unclean removed ext4 file system means that there is rather no data corrupted?
[18:20] <XeonBloomfield> Is it possible to scroll tty1? xD
[18:21] <kroq-gar78> XeonBloomfield: god, worst part about not having a GUI :/
[18:21] <iceroot> XeonBloomfield: yes, with screen
[18:21] <XeonBloomfield> kroq-gar78: I scrolled it in the past on my notebook
[18:22] <XeonBloomfield> iceroot: I did it in the past... How I did it - it is question ;)
[18:22] <kroq-gar78> XeonBloomfield: how? or can you not anymore
[18:22] <iceroot> XeonBloomfield: open scren and then "ctrl + a + esc" to enter copy-mode then you hace scrolling with page up/down
[18:22] <iceroot> XeonBloomfield: i guess its some framebuffer-setting which is not enabled by default
[18:23] <XeonBloomfield> kroq-gar78 & iceroot - SHIFT + PAGE UP/DOWN
[18:23] <iceroot> XeonBloomfield: thx for the info, didnt know that
[18:24] <Abhijit> XeonBloomfield, shift pgup or shift pgdwn
[18:24] <kroq-gar78> iceroot: omg thank you
[18:24] <XeonBloomfield> Abhijit: I have just written it ;)
[18:24] <Abhijit> okies.

[18:27] <PoolShark> hi all.. I need some help adding 1600x900 to the available display modes in xubuntu 11.10
[18:28] <DeltaEpsilon> I am running virtualbox. in the guest os, Ubuntu, I can resolve google.com but does not get reply from it
[18:28] <MonkeyDust> XeonBloomfield  /dev/md0 etc => is it a RAID configuration?
[18:28] <PoolShark> DeltaEpsilon: Is the network interface in your VM configured for Bridge or Private NAT?
[18:28] <DeltaEpsilon> PoolShark, bridge
[18:28] <XeonBloomfield> MonkeyDust: Yes, it is from Linux MD (Linux Software Raid)
[18:29] <PoolShark> DeltaEpsilon: Hrm... that's odd :p
[18:29] <DeltaEpsilon> it says host unreachable
[18:29] <PoolShark> DeltaEpsilon: and I guess you've checked to make sure the default route is set?
[18:31] <PoolShark> DeltaEpsilon: "route -n" will print the routing table without resolving names. You should have a default route pointed at the ethernet interface... cat /etc/resolv.conf to make sure dhcpd set the nameservers properly...
[18:31] <LivTyler> how do I share split-screen windows in gnu/screen?
[18:31] <DeltaEpsilon> PoolShark, I can't even ping the gatewat <IP_ADDRESS>
[18:32] <DeltaEpsilon> PoolShark, it is using vmbr0 for the defualt gw
[18:32] <PoolShark> DeltaEpsilon: what is vmbr0? When I run ubuntu on VBox, the ethernet just shows up at eth0 as normal
[18:33] <PoolShark> DeltaEpsilon: if you do an ifconfig, how many interfaces are listed?
[18:35] <LivTyler> how do I share split-screen windows in gnu/screen?
[18:37] <LivTyler> I want to share them as a block(just one session)

[18:55] <dragoneye> borillion: know not i do
[18:56] <Cyph3r> Is there any reason why unchecking the "Play login sound" radio button, the login sound STILL plays?
[18:56] <kw21> strand: reboot and do it again, make sure screensaver and lock screen are disabled
[18:57] <srand> kw21: the screensaver did jump on. Can it never when you are updating your system?
[18:58] <kw21> had the same issues as you, it did the trick for me

[18:59] <borillion> yerp
[18:59] <dragoneye> cool
[19:00] <JoshuaP> How do I keep the terminal MOTD from updating?
[19:01] <kw21> strand: a quick update is fine but a lengthy 700 mb is most likely interrupted
[19:01] <airtonix> JoshuaP: isn't that a #ubuntu-server question.
[19:02] <airtonix> JoshuaP: since the terminal on ubuntu desktop doesn't reveal a MOTD as far as I  can tell.
[19:02] <JoshuaP> airtonix, I don't know how the ubuntu irc thing works
[19:02] <airtonix> JoshuaP: so how did you get here then ?
[19:02] <JoshuaP> airtonix, my server runs on my laptop as both a server and desktop
[19:02] <airtonix> JoshuaP:  /join #ubuntu-server
[19:02] <JoshuaP> natively as a desktop
[19:02] <dragoneye> lol
[19:03] <airtonix> JoshuaP: you're in for a learning experience then...
[19:03] <dragoneye> you know how it works now.
[19:03] <JoshuaP> airtonix, why do you say that?
[19:04] <airtonix> JoshuaP: you seem to have convinced your self that it's worth the risk or trouble, but suffice to say, life is easier when there is a clear delination between machine roles
[19:04] <LaLiLu> st
[19:04] <LaLiLu> hey
[19:04] <JoshuaP> airtonix, I'm 14 I can't afford a server or VPS
[19:05] <airtonix> JoshuaP: you can start one up on amazon for free (for the first year)
[19:05] <lele_> 2
[19:05] <JoshuaP> airtonix, can you link me?
[19:05] <LaLiLu> could one of you guys pls tell me the command to install adobe flash 64bit?
[19:05] <airtonix> JoshuaP: free-ish, i'd go read the pricing page though.
[19:06] <airtonix> JoshuaP: or if that's too much trouble, at least do the server thing from virtualbox on your desktop (thats what i do in some cases)
[19:06] <cloudgeek> hey all
[19:06] <JoshuaP> LaLiLu, if it's .deb, go to the directory it's in with nautilus and open it.
[19:06] <JoshuaP> With Ubuntu Software Center
[19:07] <airtonix> JoshuaP: but anyway you should join #ubuntu-server and ask there about message of the day
[19:08] <JoshuaP> I did airtonix
[19:09] <airtonix> JoshuaP: good stuff
[19:10] <trism> JoshuaP: the motd is generated by the files in /etc/update-motd.d/, if you chmod -x those files, the motd won't be updated (although you may want to leave 99-footer so you can have a static one using /etc/motd.tail)
[19:12] <Loshki> Is there a way in gnome (11.04LTS) to switch desktops just by sliding the mouse off the edge of the current screen?
[19:13] <JoshuaP> trism, and if I want to undo that, how may I?

[19:27] <FloodBot1> rymate1234: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[19:28] <coleix> check sound configuration, make ajustments, ???, profit
[19:28] <coleix> lol
[19:28] <Santies> how to upload a theme?
[19:28] <rymate1234> why was my sound muted?
[19:29] <unreal-dude> because your computer wanted to hide something from you?
[19:29] <rymate1234> lol
[19:29] <Santies> Give alsamixer in the console and then F6 and sliders to the max up arrow
[19:29] <unreal-dude> you gotta watch out for these thinking machines.....
[19:30] <coleix> you probably muted it and forgot
[19:30] <Malamen> May I clone a partiton with DD with the system running normaly? Or I must umount the partition that I want to clone ????

[19:36] <Emanon> Does Empathy support sasl authentication for irc?
[19:36] <Santies> IRC is similar to the support forum
[19:37] <Emanon> Thanks but does the im client that is default on ubuntu (empathy) support sasl authentication?
[19:38] <Emanon> That is, if I wanted to identify with sasl instead of nickserv using empathy's irc client, could I?
[19:38] <Santies> use xchat
[19:39] <coleix> pidgin is better in my opinion :)
[19:39] <Emanon> That's really helpful. Except it didn't answer my question AT ALL.
[19:39] <Santies> unity config is better
[19:40] <Emanon> well I see this is going nowhere. Can I speak to your mommy or daddy instead? Maybe they will understand my question.
[19:41] <Santies> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y00yMrMIMtc
[19:41] <mneptok> Emanon: it's a volunteer channel. you get the knowledge people happen to have.
[19:41] <Santies> IRC: install telepathy-idle, see below for more notes on IRC
[19:41] <Santies> http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/FAQ
[19:42] <dreamy_> cani repeat my queztion? is anyone using a sis card and having 3d acell. on linux
[19:42] <phnom> mneptok: Except Santies just seem to spam the channel with semi-related crap.
[19:42] <dreamy_> 671
[19:42] <oCean> Santies: he's asking specifically for SASL support
[19:43] <muzone> Why can't I wget -r -A pdf,doc http://www.fabricly.com? https://gist.github.com/1519382 - it doesn't make any difference if I add HTML to the list. Running the same command on other sites though usually yields tons of PDFs and DOCs.
[19:43] <Santies> Sorry for all unknown words,
[19:43] <phnom> Emanon: empathy seems to have a sasl handler anyways, so it probably can handle it.
[19:43] <oCean> Santies: if you prefer to use Polish,  /join #ubuntu-pl  channel
[19:44] <Santies> Even after ang I can help
[19:45] <Emanon> Ok, so I'll just assume that empathy doesn't support sasl, thanks so much.
[19:46] <Santies> txh help, hi
[19:46] <coleix> Santies: did you try www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eUGKrFwPOw ?
[19:46] <Emanon> To be fait, pidgin doesn't either.
[19:46] <hiexpo> whats the location of the cdrom in ubuntu 10.04 > i thought it was/dev/cdrom
[19:47] <sebast> hiexpo: could be /media/cdrom instead
[19:47] <mmoebius> hiexpo: Usually, that is the case. But that is only a symlink to the "real" device like /dev/hdc or /dev/sdb or whatever
[19:48] <mmoebius> sebast: /media/.... is usually the mountpoint
[19:48] <mmoebius> hiexpo: For permanent naming, also look at /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-cd.rules
[19:48] <edbian> hiexpo, /dev/cdrom0 || /dev/cdrom1  (unmounted)  /media/cdrom  (mounted)
[19:49] <sebast> mmoebius: yes, I assumed that's what hiexpo was asking for
[19:49] <ReshAyin> hola, am attempting to retrieve "Login Keyring". Is a person able to assist?
[19:49] <coleix> Emanon: There's a patch, don't know if it works thought http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/13270
[19:50] <mmoebius> hiexpo: Please clarify: are you looking for the device (e.g. to give its name to your cd recorder or the music player) or are you looking for the contents of a CD you inserted ?
[19:50] <AndroUser> Anyone know how to upgrade DenyHosts? I just installed it, but I found out I installed version 2.0, and I want to upgrade to 2.6
[19:51] <hiexpo> mmoebius, no tring to tranfer aniso to an usb rsync -r /cdrom/* .
[19:55] <Cyph3r> Login sound STILL plays, despite unchecking the "play login sound" radio button. Any ideas?
[19:55] <Ji> by the love of God...
[19:55] <Ji> Too many ppl O.o
[19:56] <oCean> Ji: if you have a question, just ask. Most users are idlers
[19:56] <ghostmediapro> I need advice on installing and configure vnc server on ubuntu 11.10 to run headless
[19:57] <Kaapa> hey there - what's the best way to edit / change the programs that run at init?
[19:57] <Kaapa> directly edit /etc/rc2.d?
[19:57] <Ji> *cough*
[19:58] <s0urse> hi everyone. having a hard time setting up multiple monitors. my main monitor works ok but the ohter 2 just have white screens with the mouse cursor an x. I've seen it listed as a bug with no solutions. any updates on this?
[19:58] <ReshAyin> the problems with the old password is forgotten
[19:58] <Ji> WTF! Are you TRYING to kill your eyes?
[19:58] <oCean> Ji: control your language here, please
[19:58] <Ji> Whywould you need multiple sreens friend?
[19:58] <Ji> Better?
[19:58] <Ji> *screens
[19:59] <edbian> Ji, ?
[19:59] <oCean> s0urse: if it's marked as a bug, there's not much we can do about that
[19:59] <edbian> Ji, Many people use mutliple monitors
[19:59] <Ji> Yesh?
[19:59] <s0urse> I have a lot of windows open all the time and do programing so I need more monitors
[19:59] <hiexpo> ok so if it is not /cdrom/*   what is it or how do i figure out its location
[19:59] <Ji> But WHY?
[19:59] <edbian> hiexpo, look at the contents of /dev
[19:59] <Guest4093> isn't at least 2 screen pretty much standard in the programming world
[19:59] <Kiten> Ji, Multiple monitors = AWESOME
[19:59] <edbian> Ji, To have many windows open at once
[19:59] <ReshAyin> Ji, do not waste his time
[19:59] <edbian> Ji, indeed it is great
[20:00] <edbian> Guest4093, yes
[20:00] <Ji> O.o
[20:00] <coleix> hiexpo: did you try the disk utility? dev/sr0 on ubuntu 11.10
[20:00] <oCean> Ji: when helping, be helpful, if he wants multiple monitors, then that's not a matter of discussion
[20:00] <ghostmediapro> Someone please point me in the direct for best vnc help for ubuntu
[20:00] <mmoebius> hiexpo: is the cdrom already mounted ?
[20:00] <Ji> um... Burbye!
[20:00] <Ji> :)
[20:00] <hiexpo> mmoebius, yes
[20:00] <mmoebius> hiexpo: where ?  Use a terminal, type "mount"<Enter>
[20:01] <hiexpo> ok sr0
[20:01] <Kiten> Guest4093, most I've seen have had 2 monitor rigs some had as many as 9 in a 3x3
[20:01] <Kiten> array
[20:01] <Guest4093> :) that is awesome
[20:01] <cheako> How can I solve this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dnsmasq/+bug/908614  I make these into directories and they both get replaced.
[20:01] <Rallias> If I were to start a custom service (like a minecraft server) in a chroot, would I be able to connect to it from outside of the chroot?
[20:01] <s0urse> so no luck on the multiple monitors? Its being detected in the nvidia control. It says that the white screens mean that theres no window manager running on there
[20:01] <mmoebius> hiexpo: sr0 is a device. That is not *where* it is mounted ... look left of "on"
[20:02] <ReshAyin> can a person assist in locating a "Login Keyring" password?
[20:02] <ghostmediapro> I need advice on installing and configure vnc server on ubuntu 11.10 to run headless
[20:02] <mmoebius> hiexpo: or pastebin the output of "mount" for us all to see
[20:02] <Kiten> source most likely you'll need to mess around with xorg and not rely on the proprietary nvid drivers
[20:02] <hiexpo> mmoebius, ok i see it is on let me trythat
[20:03] <mmoebius> ReshAyin: As far as i kno, if you lack the pssword, you can just delete the keyring and start a new on
[20:03] <Kiten> source * correction manager instead of drivers derp
[20:03] <ReshAyin> how does a person delete a keyring?
[20:03] <Cyph3r> Login sound STILL plays, despite unchecking the "play login sound" radio button. Any ideas?
[20:03] <ActionParsnip> ghostmediapro: www.scotttyee.com/blog/2009/12/09/linux-headless-ubuntu-with-vnc/
[20:04] <ReshAyin> e gracias mmoebius
[20:04] <Kiten> Cyph3r, you could remove it or beat your audio card with a hammer
[20:04] <mmoebius> ReshAyin: tried http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/06/clearing-or-resetting-the-gnome-keyring/ ?
[20:04] <AndroUser> Anyone know how to upgrade DenyHosts? I just installed it, but I found out I installed version 2.0, and I want to upgrade to 2.6
[20:04] <mmoebius> ReshAyin: de nada ;-)
[20:04] <CarlFK> Cyph3r: maybe.. hold on...
[20:04] <ActionParsnip> Cyph3r: just remove the item rather than uncheck
[20:04] <Kiten> Cyph3r, should be somewhere in /etc/ i think i dont recall the name of the file though
[20:04] <ReshAyin> aha, did not discover it earlier, gracias
[20:05] <ActionParsnip> !ppa | AndroUser
[20:06] <Emanon> AndroUser lol I'm using androIRC too. You try  it through tor?
[20:06] <Cyph3r> kiten, awesome thanks. been trying to get this fixed all morning
[20:07] <oCean> !info denyhosts
[20:07] <CarlFK> Cyph3r: https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/pxe/shaz/var/www/lc/late.sh
[20:07]  * TiMiDo *waves*
[20:07] <CarlFK> Cyph3r: oh, you get it turned off?  somewhere in that script is how I did it
[20:07] <ubuntu> I need user and password for Lubuntu 10.04, live cd
[20:07] <oCean> AndroUser: denyhosts 2.6 is in the repositories
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Emanon: andchat here :-)
[20:08] <gridbag> what's the way to turn off all the irritating tooltips when you hover of the app icons? Also, the tooltip in the color-picker (hue wheel) is super irritating.
[20:08] <Emanon> I was using that earlier ActionParsnip.
[20:08] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntu: there isn't one. Username is ubuntu
[20:08] <AndroUser> OCean, I installed it from source though, for version 2.0, what would I do to upgrade it to 2.6?
[20:09] <Cyph3r> kiten, was just going to take out the sound file.
[20:09] <Kiten> yeah thats what i meant
[20:09] <wardster> hi guys just testing my irc client - loving ubuntu 11.10 :) merry xmas
[20:09] <Emanon> Liked the easy  sasl auth method on androirc better.
[20:09] <Kiten> I don't recall the name though
[20:09] <oCean> AndroUser: remove the version you installed from source. Then  sudo apt-get install denyhosts   is all you need
[20:09] <CarlFK> Cyph3r: CONF=/usr/share/gnome/autostart/libcanberra-login-sound.desktop
[20:09] <ubuntu> I klik on logout and now ask me for log in> user and password_
[20:09] <Cyph3r> CarlFK,  awesome, thanks
[20:09] <AndroUser> Ah ok, also, to remove, do I just delete the files I loaded and remove the /etc/init.d entries?
[20:10] <CarlFK> Cyph3r: echo X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false >> $CONF
[20:10] <Kiten> ubuntu, did you set a passwd before you logged out ???
[20:10] <Kiten> *password
[20:10] <ubuntu> no
[20:10] <mneptok> AndroUser: you may want to look at Fail2Ban if you're going thorugh all this effort to upgrade denyhosts
[20:10] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntu: you can press CTRL+Alt+F2 and run: passwd ubuntu
[20:11] <oCean> AndroUser: maybe, maybe there is more to it. It might be in the documentation in the source you downloaded. Or contact the maintainers of the package. Most software is available in repositories. Makes installing and removing much easier
[20:12] <AndroUser>  oCean, thanks, yea I know about repositories, just didnt know DentHosts was in it
[20:12] <ubuntu> ok
[20:19] <bfw> Hey. I can't dist upgrade from 11.04 to 11.10. There is no option to do so in the graphical update manager, and #sudo apt-get dist-upgrade simply says nothing needs to be upgraded. Any ideas?
[20:21] <yann2> hello! I can't remember the name of the english guy who has a black, round hat on the ubuntu planet... would someone be able to help me?
[20:21] <yann2> +on his avatar
[20:21] <oCean> bfw: do-release-upgrade is the option you want, dist-upgrade is just a more complex way of doing a "normal" upgrade
[20:21] <oCean> yann2: maybe try #ubuntu-offtopic channel
[20:22] <yann2> will do thanks
[20:22] <sedeki> How can I make Xserver not treat my different workspaces as one extended desktop, because windowses are sometimes out of screen
[20:22] <bfw> oCean: typing that command says no new release found
[20:23] <EnigmaX2K> I am trying to install a BROTHER MFC 7420 or a MFC 7340 and I can't get it to print the damn thing.
[20:23] <yitz_> What'd be involved in setting the hostname on a machine? (running off a PXE/LiveUSB so I just need to edit the right files and not the in-memory stuff)
[20:23] <EnigmaX2K> I tried UBUNTU 10.10, AND 11.10
[20:24] <EnigmaX2K> I am willing to PAYPAL / pay someone to fix this, I don't have time to scre* around with it. I get a PRINTER -> receiving data but nothing comes out.
[20:24] <EnigmaX2K> so you can remote desktop in and check it out and etc
[20:25] <bfw> oCean: I forgot to sudo. Solved. Thanks.
[20:25] <oCean> bfw: ah, ok :)
[20:25] <wes> Hey all -- trying to get my mom's new webcam + skype working under 9.04.   Skype accepts input only from PulseAudio.  Microphone in cam works with sound recorder.  Skype only sends hiss -- presumably the unused mic in on the motherboard.  I can't seem to wire up PulseAUdio to send the USB microphone to skype, any tips?
[20:26] <wes> (using the statically-linked version of skype FWIW)
[20:28] <oCean> EnigmaX2K: Apparently this page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1459926 has several confirmed "solved" posts
[20:29] <EnigmaX2K> thank you, i'll check it out.
[20:29] <wessel> how can I get the number of CPU's / threads on the machines I am running on? I want to run java Evolve many times, in such a way that all CPU's are 100% busy
[20:30] <wessel> (And the machines I'm running on are all very different)
[20:30] <iceroot> wessel: cat /proc/cpuinfo or "top" and press "1"
[20:30] <yitz_> What'd be involved in setting the hostname on a machine? (running off a PXE/LiveUSB so I just need to edit the right files and not the in-memory stuff)
[20:31] <iceroot> !hostname | yitz_
[20:31] <magnus__> hey people! just started out with Linux(ubuntu). Is it  possible to use pwd for path completion when writing  commands. For example: svn co file://{PWD}/myproject?
[20:31] <EnigmaX2K> if this works i'll be stoked and post back :)
[20:31] <yitz_> Thanks, iceroot
[20:32] <kernelpanicker> my laptop screen dims after a few seconds on 11.10... how do I turn that off?
[20:32] <iceroot> magnus__: .
[20:33] <wessel> iceroot: how do I compute the optimal number of threads off that file?
[20:34] <wessel> top 1, gives me 24 CPU's
[20:34] <Rallias> umm... I just accidently did an rm -rf in a chroot that I forgot I mount-bound.. does /dev recover on reboot?
[20:34] <wessel> bit weird number
[20:34] <iceroot> wessel: top gives you cores + hyperthreading
[20:34] <yitz_> Rallias: Yes
[20:34] <Rallias> *phew*
[20:34] <iceroot> wessel: sounds like 12 cores with hyperthreading
[20:34] <wessel> Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU           X5650  @ 2.67GHz
[20:35] <wessel> cpu cores       : 6
[20:35] <yitz_> Or quad
[20:35] <iceroot> wessel: 2 cpus?
[20:35] <magnus__> iceroot: thanks. Is there a way to convert it to the absolute path? file///./myproject does not do the trick
[20:35] <wessel> apparently
[20:35] <Rallias> iceroot doesn't xeon have 4-core "hyperthreading"?
[20:35] <iceroot> Rallias: never heard of that, sorry
[20:36] <iceroot> magnus__: maybe #bash can help you
[20:36] <magnus__> thank you :)
[20:36] <jeaton> im thinking about starting fresh and wipe my whole hdd and install ubuntu back on it, anyway, I'm wanting to back up mainly just one directory

[20:38] <mneptok> !language > Raliegh
[20:38] <AndroUser> jeaton you can, however if your current partition  takes up the whole disk, you may have to use gparted to resize the partition to create a new one
[20:38] <jeaton> ok
[20:39] <pinguy_> ok, cutting to the chase, i need to read wikipedia dump files ... has any one successfully managed to do this ?

[20:40] <flash__> 32 gig xml?!
[20:40] <pinguy_> yes flash
[20:40] <flash__> you said this was a dump?
[20:41] <iceroot> pinguy_: less can act on big files easily
[20:41] <pinguy_> enwiki-20111201-pages-articles.xml
[20:41] <pinguy_> there is that word again.. is less an apps ?
[20:41] <flash__> less is a pager
[20:41] <iceroot> flash__: less is a great file-viewer
[20:41] <flash__> its a program standard on linux distros that lets you read long output
[20:42] <pinguy_> pager ... tha thing you call and it goes beep beep beep ... :D ?
[20:42] <iceroot> pinguy_: "less filename"
[20:42] <AndroUser> ubottu !less
[20:42] <pinguy_> oh... well i do not intend to sequentially read the file. it requires random access
[20:44] <pinguy_> can less show the data correctly alowing it to be navigated ?
[20:44] <jimisrvrox2> hey guys quick question...wondering what I am f'ing up on my grep cmd...I want the output to be <div class="related"><a href=website>text</a> [via <a href=website>website</a>]</div> but when I do grep '<div class="related"><a href=' I get stuff such as <p> or or <img src= stuff...any ideas as to how to fix it?

[20:45] <iceroot> !work | pp7
[20:45] <pp7> yea yea...
[20:46] <iceroot> pinguy_: why not trying it? and no less can not act very good on xml files with a good navigation
[20:46] <Ramir00> howto install samba 3.6.1 ubuntu 10.10
[20:46] <pp7> ok.. selecting "compress" results in no dialog
[20:46] <iceroot> !info samba maverick
[20:46] <ActionParsnip> Pp7: what happens when you try? Marlin isn't supported here
[20:47] <pp7> ActionParsnip: nothing happens.. no dialog
[20:47] <iceroot> Ramir00: maybe with backports or a ppa
[20:47] <iceroot> !info samba
[20:47] <pinguy_> because the fiule is currently being copied from an ext4 partition to a ntfs partition so i can have windows options for viewing this file if i have to...
[20:47] <pinguy_> iceroot
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> Pp7: is it the same as a fresh user?
[20:47] <iceroot> Ramir00: is 3.6.1 a stable-release?
[20:47] <pp7> ActionParsnip: yes this is after fresh install
[20:47] <Ademan-remote> I've seen recommendations for and against different brands of cd-r for burning LiveCDs. but I'm not having much luck finding them right now. what cd-r brand should I buy to ensure a successful burn?
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> Pp7: are you fully updated?
[20:48] <pp7> yes
[20:48] <iceroot> Ademan-remote: every cd-r should work
[20:48] <pinguy_> it has about 25  minutes left... sense it can not navigate the 32 gigabyte xml file.,.. i think i will not bother. thanks though
[20:48] <AndroUser> Anyone know of a good tutorial on how to setup/configure exim4?
[20:48] <pinguy_> iceroot
[20:48] <nixmaniack> hi, my usb mouse on laptop stops working if it's idle, i have to click any button to get it working. How can i keep it always working?
[20:48] <iceroot> Ademan-remote: also a usb-drive is a good way
[20:48] <Kiten> i gotta ask what do you guys prefer to use to play mp3's ?
[20:48] <Ramir00> samba 2:3.5.11 is version 3 or version 2?
[20:49] <ActionParsnip> Ademan-remote: md5 test your iso and burn as slowly as possible and any are fine
[20:49] <pinguy_> nix, if all you have to do is click a button to ragain control, whats so wrong  that requires a fix ?
[20:49] <Ademan-remote> iceroot: yes however if you go through ubuntuforums you'll see a lot of people saying "my cd wasn't working, tried a different brand at the same speed and now it's working"
[20:49] <Seveas> AndroUser, the best advise I can give is to wipe the config and copy a sane config from a fedora system. Then buy philip hazel's book :)
[20:49] <eutheria> why does installing flash install lots of 32bit libs?
[20:49] <Kiten> movie player is kinda boring, i use to use something on arch but i've long since forgotten what it was called
[20:49] <eutheria> i thought flash was 64bit now
[20:49] <iceroot> eutheria: because there is only 32bit flash in the repos
[20:49] <Seveas> eutheria, because flash is 32bit. Adobe sucks
[20:50] <AndroUser> Seveas, thanks, but not what Im looking for
[20:50] <eutheria> oh
[20:50] <Ramir00> current 3.6.1 current stable release, homepage samba
[20:50] <pinguy_> flash is being discontinued any way
[20:50] <xangua> eutheria: if you want to install the 64bit plugin, you need to install flashplugin-adobke from the partner repository
[20:50] <xangua> !partner | eutheria
[20:50] <pinguy_> in favor of html 5
[20:50] <iceroot> Ramir00: is there a special reason you need 3.6.1?
[20:50] <ActionParsnip> eutheria: if you enabled the partner repo it won't
[20:50] <iceroot> Ramir00: samba 3.5.12 is the latest stable-release
[20:51] <eutheria> ActionParsnip, no 64bit flash in partner repo?
[20:51] <iceroot> Ramir00: from the samba-website
[20:51] <wes> Is it possible to upgrade from 9.04 to 10.04 without wiping and starting over again?
[20:51] <Ademan-remote> pinguy_: did something happen? because afaik flash is alive and well on everything except mobile
[20:51] <srand> I have upgraded my system and it asked me to reboot, but it has been at the boot screen for +/- 10 minutes now. Should i force restart?
[20:51] <eutheria> hmm
[20:51] <iceroot> wes: yes
[20:51] <Shucky> hi all
[20:51] <iceroot> !upgrade | wes
[20:51] <iceroot> !eol | wes
[20:51] <Seveas> wes, yes, by upgrading to 9.10 first
[20:51] <pinguy_> its adobe who is dropping it...
[20:51] <pp7> srand: yes
[20:51] <Shucky> i want to know if their with a simple way to block ssh user in is home dir
[20:51] <Ramir00> not detect the network
[20:51] <ActionParsnip> eutheria: yes install adobe-installer and you'll get it
[20:52] <Shucky> (sorry for my bad english :p )
[20:52] <iceroot> Shucky: block? you mean to keep them in there home?
[20:52] <Shucky> yes
[20:52] <wes> iceroot: thanks, reading links. seveas - that's what I thought, package manager only offers 10.4 then tells me I can't do that.  Trying to patch-up 9.04 gives me 404s on downloads, presumably due to EOL
[20:52] <iceroot> Shucky: i guess chroot is the only way
[20:52] <Shucky> arf
[20:52] <Shucky> ok
[20:52] <Seveas> Shucky, not really. Especially as all programs they need are not in there
[20:52] <iceroot> wes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[20:52] <pinguy_> i m ay simply give up on being able to use this wikipedia dump file for a long while... some one suggested a wikiepedia dump reader that comes in a deb package but its 32bit and my 56bit ubuntu doesnt like it
[20:52] <ActionParsnip> pinguy_: not heard adobe dropping 64bit flash
[20:53] <Seveas> wes, the repositories for that version are now on old-releases.ubuntu.com instead of archive.ubuntu.com
[20:53] <AndroUser> Shucky, you definitely can, google lock user to home directory debian, and the second post down is a great tutorial
[20:53] <pinguy_> well some one is dropping it... i could look for the artical... i just dont care enough about flash to bother
[20:53] <AndroUser> Shucky this is what most web hosting companies do
[20:53] <Shucky> yes but they use chroot?
[20:54] <iceroot> pinguy_: adobe has flash64bit again up there was a time when they dropped the 64bit version
[20:54] <Lasivian> is there a version for "old hardware" specifically? Beyond a non-GUI version. Thanks
[20:54] <AndroUser> Shucky, yes they do, heres the direct link http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-unix-rssh-chroot-jail-setup.html
[20:54] <Shucky> is possible but is not "easy" to do
[20:54] <iceroot> pinguy_: at the moment they are dropping flash for all portable devices
[20:54] <Shucky> ok
[20:54] <Shucky> thanks
[20:54] <iceroot> pinguy_: hopefully when we speak again in one year flash was dropped completly from this world
[20:54] <eutheria> thanks! one 64bit flash being installed! yay!
[20:54] <tira> hello all

[20:55] <ActionParsnip> Ramir00: is there no ppa?
[20:55] <iceroot> Ramir00: is there a special reason you need 3.6.1 instead of 3.5.11?
[20:55] <Lasivian> iceroot: thanks
[20:55] <tira> ada yang bisa bantu saya gak???
[20:56] <wes> ActionParsnip: What happens when you clean-install Ubuntu on top of an existing install?  Do homedirs etc stay intact?
[20:56] <sabocat> Hello, would anyone be willing to give me some advice troubleshooting a kernel panic? I've run memtest86+ and it found no errors. I think it's relate to the STA broacom driver
[20:56] <pinguy_> http://telecomnewspk.com/2011/11/adobe-decides-to-discontinue-flash-for-mobile-browsers/
[20:56] <Lasivian> iceroot: any idea would cli-only server be faster if I am making a headless box?
[20:56] <pinguy_> there is one...
[20:56] <Lasivian> if it wouldt hat is
[20:56] <iceroot> sabocat: so you are not using a asus eeepc?
[20:56] <pinguy_> adobe drops mobile flash for html 5
[20:56] <Seveas> !id | tira
[20:57] <sabocat> iceroot: No
[20:57] <Ramir00> I do not know if there is a ppa
[20:57] <wes> According to the community pages, looks like I'm stuck doing an "alternate cd upgrade" at the very least; not a lot of data on this machine but getting mom back to a supported release is worthy goal  (immediate goal is skype :) )
[20:57] <iceroot> Lasivian: yes
[20:57] <iceroot> Ramir00: is there a special reason you need 3.6.1 instead of 3.5.11?
[20:57] <Kingsy> if I have just plugged a usb controller in how do I find out where it has been assigned in /dev/ ?
[20:57] <Lasivian> I suppose it's rather moot, both can probably run cli-only
[20:57] <Kingsy> the manual says its usually tty0 but how do I make sure?
[20:57]  * Lasivian has to stop thinking in windows-mode
[20:57] <ActionParsnip> Wes: you will need to format. Use your backups to restore user data
[20:57] <Seveas> Kingsy, usb controllers don't get /dev nodes.
[20:57] <iceroot> Kingsy: dmesg
[20:57] <StevenR> Kingsy: dmesg should know.
[20:58] <iceroot> Kingsy: ah controller
[20:58] <wes> ActionParsnip: Ouch, that means *finding* user data first, wiping someone else's computer is never a good first option.  ("Sorry I lost your pics, we were trying to get your sound driver fixed")
[20:58] <StevenR> Seveas: depends what it's a controller for
[20:58] <Seveas> or do you mean a game controller on a usb port?
[20:58] <iceroot> wes: make a backup and use the normal upgrade
[20:58] <ActionParsnip> Wes: why is there no backup? Drives can and do fail
[20:58] <wes> ActionParsnip: how many old ladies do *you* know who are on top of their backups?
[20:58] <AndroUser> Lasivian definitely, removing a desktop manager frees up quite a bit of resources, look into using ubuntu-server
[20:59] <Seveas> wes, I know one :)
[20:59] <iceroot> wes: we know a lot of people which are asking "how to restore my lost data"
[20:59] <wes> Seveas: I got here last christmas and found firefox 1.0 beta
[20:59] <Seveas> (but only because I've set up a daily rsync cronjob)
[20:59] <iceroot> wes: and we have much fun to say "use your backup"
[20:59] <iceroot> wes: after the "i dont have a backup" we love to say "now you know why a backup is important"
[20:59] <wes> In *theory* her data is all "in the cloud" -- flickr, gmail, etc -- but I'm not going to rely on that
[20:59] <Lasivian> AndroUser: aye, i've run server before, but this old notebook only has wifi and i've never setup that in server
[21:00] <Ramir00> iceroot my version is 2:3.54
[21:00] <Ramir00> iceroot my version is 2:3.5.4
[21:00] <iceroot> Ramir00: again, why you need 3.6.1
[21:00] <Lasivian> so i'm debating how much masochism I want to deal with ;)
[21:00] <Gentoo64> Lasivian, running in console over X might not be much faster unless its under load, but it frees up ram, and guarantess that nothing pointless will be using it, or the cpu, or the disk etc
[21:00] <ActionParsnip> Wes: if data is important, it should be backed up
[21:00] <wes> iceroot: years ago, I worked as a PC tech - I did a data recovery for a master's thesis on a failed, double-spaced, harddrive.  I wasn't all that surprised to find out there was no backups, until I got his thesis back and discovered he was an EE student
[21:01] <Gentoo64> Lasivian, and itd be more stable, as X could cause random problems
[21:01] <ActionParsnip> Wes: dropbox :-)
[21:01] <AndroUser> Lasivian ah ok, I havent setup wirless before in cmd line.  I tried to get dual head and flash working. Dual head (twinview) does not work with unity nor gnome shell (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/813343).
[21:05] <no_gravity> Hello! In Ubuntu 11, I deleted all the default apps like libre offic, firefox etc from the launcher on the left. but after a reboot they came back. is that normal?
[21:05] <seth> Therefore I decided to try a ppa with updated packages for nvidia. I keep getting hash mismatches while trying to install packages from the ubuntu-x-swat ppa. Both gnome shell and unity (anything with compositing it seems) cause nvidia settings to crash after trying to configure a dual head setup with twinview.
[21:06] <seth> I decided to download the most recent drivers from the nvidia website and found the following issue: $ sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-290.10\(1\).run  Verifying archive integrity... Error in check sums<PHONE_NUMBER> 426978009 $ sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-290.10.run  Verifying archive integrity... Error in check sums 11670095 426978009
[21:06] <seth> I get the same hash mismatch message when I try to unzip flash downloaded from the adobe website or try to install flash from the ubuntu restricted extras. Is it possible my corruption problem is related to this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/883338
[21:06] <hooman> hi
[21:07] <wes> BTW, is wipe-upgrade the usually recommended method of upgrading Ubuntu installs?  I gotta say, I find that frustrating, but I guess it's no worse than Sun or Mac offerings.  Well, Sun has the advantage because they only do major releases once a decade or something now :?
[21:08] <mebigfatguy1> sun has the advantage of being dead
[21:09] <no_gravity> wes: i think you can "apt-get dist-upgrade" and it will normally work fine.
[21:10] <wes> no_gravity: the community pages say the CD method is the only way to go, although, I admit, I didn't read the explanation why :)
[21:10] <Gentoo64> wes, so many people end up with broken systems after upgrade so I would backup first
[21:10] <seth>  I feel like I dumpted too much information in the channel. Nobody can comment on my issues?
[21:10] <seth> *dumped
[21:11] <seth> yeah
[21:11] <seth> I'd recommend a reinstall
[21:12] <wes> Gentoo64: *nod* - I'm actually trying to locate and back up all the user data while the ISO comes down
[21:12] <oCean> wes: I don't know the statistics for succesful/failed upgrades, but the actual command is do-release upgrade, dist-upgrade is just a more complex option for "normal" updates no_gravity
[21:12] <Gentoo64> wes, you couls use clonezilla, if not home and etc should fit on a small flash drive
[21:13] <wes> oCean: Is do-release upgrade the same thing the GUI does?  The GUI doesn't work because I'm on 9.04 and 9.10 is already EOLd
[21:13] <Guest37461> ciao!
[21:13] <Guest37461> list
[21:13] <Gentoo64> list?
[21:14] <Gentoo64> wes, are you coming from that to 11.10?
[21:14] <oCean> wes, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades
[21:14] <wes> Gentoo64: If only I had one here!   I'm actually copying the data to my office, but that's kinda brutal to do via the T1 we have there.  Hm. Maybe I should take a spin into town and see if I can find one, would probably save myself a lot of grief
[21:15] <wes> Gentoo64: target is 10.04 LTS, since that is what Skype supports.  (this whole exercise is to get the microphone working)
[21:15] <Gentoo64> wes, if its just configs you could probably tar them and email them to yourself
[21:15] <wes> Gentoo64: digital camera pics :)
[21:15] <Guest37461> hello
[21:15] <Gentoo64> ah ok
[21:16] <Guest37461> please

[21:16] <Gentoo64> Guest37461, we dont do !list in here

[21:23] <srm_fake> Hello. I'm logged in as an admin user. When trying to install a packet via Ubuntu Software Center 2.0.7, the sudo dialog requires me to enter the password of another user (there are two admin accounts on this notebook). Why is the dialog not requesting my password?
[21:24] <supuers> srm_fake did you set up root sign in as su
[21:24] <urlin2u> srm_fake, administrator in ubuntu what do you mean logged in a s root?
[21:25] <mebigfatguy1> srm_fake: what does     su srm_fake -c your-command                                       do
[21:25] <Seveas> srm_fake, is the other user logged in too and did you do a switch user? Or is the other user logged in on a terminal?
[21:27] <danny> hello this is a bit far-fetched, but does anyone know if there is a PHP channel on IRC?
[21:27] <Gentoo64> #php
[21:27] <srm_fake> Seveas, the other user is not logged in. mebigfatguy1, what account should I choose to 'su' into?  supuers, I can't remember. I've set up this machine for my mother a while back :)
[21:27] <Gentoo64> probably
[21:27] <Gentoo64> dannel, ##php
[21:27] <Gentoo64> danny
[21:27] <supuers> you may have changed the superuser password
[21:28] <mebigfatguy1> srm_fake: your admin account, not the other one that you need to enter the password for
[21:28] <Gentoo64> srm_fake, thats why you use sudo -i on ubuntu
[21:28] <nixmaniack>  my usb mouse on laptop stops working if it's idle, i have to click any button to get it working. How can i keep it always working?
[21:29] <srm_fake> mebigfatguy1: su for my admin account is working. I've tested with 'ls'.
[21:29] <Seveas> nixmaniack, read its manual. It's probably a feature of that specific mouse.
[21:29] <danny> Gentoo64 thanks but it doesnt let me in, its invite only
[21:29] <Gentoo64> nixmaniack, probably shutting off the usb port for power saving, so id check the power settings, or is it wireless?
[21:29] <oCean> !register | danny
[21:29] <supuers> sudo -i best bet as I had an issue when I changed the superuser password as I came from an RHEL environment
[21:29] <oCean> danny: not invite, you have to register and identify with services
[21:30] <Gentoo64> danny, worked for me :s
[21:30] <Seveas> Gentoo64, you're registered with nickserv :)
[21:30] <nixmaniack> Seveas, no, every other mouse giving same prob. so i think kernel is switching it off
[21:30] <danny> oCean , Gentoo64, ubottu AHHH thanks i am actually already registered
[21:30] <Gentoo64> danny, ah yea, read the freenode thing on registering your nick or join #freenode
[21:30] <danny> need to login
[21:30] <Seveas> danny, then you're not identified
[21:30] <oCean> yup
[21:31] <nixmaniack> Gentoo64, where can i check power setting?
[21:31] <Gentoo64> nixmaniack, is the mouse wireless?
[21:31] <nixmaniack> Gentoo64, nopes
[21:31] <Gentoo64> nixmaniack, im not sure how to disable the usb power saving thing
[21:32] <koffeehaus> Gentoo64, Seveas, oCean - got it thanks (apreviously known as danny)
[21:32] <koffeehaus> Gentoo64 yes i'm in now!!! yay
[21:32] <Gentoo64> cool
[21:32] <koffeehaus> cheers
[21:33] <Gentoo64> any time you want to know if theres a channel, just try the name btw
[21:33] <Gentoo64> lol
[21:33] <koffeehaus> lol makes sense
[21:36] <meerkats> every time I try to play lordsawar it segfaults, do I need any packages?

[21:40] <owen> Hello, could someone assist me with linux failing at boot up please?
[21:40] <srm_fake> ok, relog didn't help. Here's some additional information: starting Software Center 2.0.7 via Icon. Trying to access Packet-Sources Menu requires me to enter the user's password -> working. Trying to install a package -> request to enter password of another user.  I don't get it. Any more tips?
[21:41] <meerkats> where can I start looking for the folder entry to a linux game? usr/share/games?

[21:45] <observer_> It used to be a high resolution splash screen but now it's a lower resolution loading screen... I don't understand why?
[21:47] <srm_fake> and interestingly enough, if I invoke pkexec echo "pkexec works"  the sudo dialog pops up and also asks for the password of the other admin-user.

[21:59] <ubuntunovice> hey everyone i was wondering if i created a bootable usb with usb-creator-gtk, would it boot on a mac, or just a pc??
[22:00] <MonkeyDust> srand  what do you mean by unstable, slow?
[22:00] <srand> MonkeyDust: Frequently slow and it even falls out some of the time.
[22:01] <MonkeyDust> srand  only when you use your browser?
[22:02] <srand> I also cannot ping google. I got disconnected in the middle of downloading some packages.
[22:02] <MonkeyDust> do sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade, first
[22:03] <srand> It's a fresh install btw. First time linux user.
[22:03] <KingPin> srand,  wifi?
[22:03] <srand> KingPin: no eth0. MonkeyDust: I did that (with the update manager GUI though)
[22:04] <MonkeyDust> srand  use the terminal, it's faster
[22:06] <srand> MonkeyDust: looks like sudo apt-get update is doing some work

[22:11] <Seveas> hmm, no idea how they talk to a printer. You either need to set browsing to on in cupsd.conf (and listen to <IP_ADDRESS>:631), or install samba
[22:11] <Seveas> given that cups is an apple thing, I'd start with the first option
[22:12] <Seveas> You're gonna need to fiddle with the permissions in cupsd.conf too
[22:12] <Jay_Levitt> I will always use visudo to edit sudoers. I will always use visudo to edit sudoers.
[22:12] <Volkswagner> Ah, I'll try Browsing first... Here is the how to I'm following http://hartlessbydesign.com/blog/view/197-airprint-with-ubuntu-1010
[22:13] <MonkeyDust> Jay_Levitt  idd, that's the way you edit sudoers
[22:14] <Jay_Levitt> MonkeyDust: Not if you do "sudo cp somefile /etc/sudoers.d"
[22:14] <Jay_Levitt> Although I guess I was testing an unattended install tool, so it wouldn't have been a very good test if I edited it manually
[22:14] <Volkswagner> Seveas:  Browsing was already set to On... I can access the CUPS interface on the LAN using hostname
[22:16] <ubuntunovice> i was wondering, does usb-creator-gtk create usb for just pc, or does it do mac too?
[22:17] <MonkeyDust> ubuntunovice  best way to find out, is by creating a bootable usb stick and plug it in the mac
[22:17] <Warp4> so im wanting to get a newer version of firefox from mozilla.com and use it under ubuntu.  i unpacked the archive but when i go to run it the 3.0.x version that comes with ubuntu loads up instead
[22:17] <urlin2u> ubuntunovice, you need more then a usb to get it going on a mac look on the web.
[22:18] <ubuntunovice> thats the problem
[22:18] <urlin2u> Warp4, what ubuntu release?
[22:18] <ubuntunovice> i googled it already and nothing came up
[22:19] <ubuntunovice> i understand i need a .img file and i tried pendrivelinux, but that didnt work because it was for pc only
[22:20] <ubuntunovice> any ideas?
[22:20] <urlin2u> ubuntunovice, you need to sharpen your search skills that info is all over the place. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/How%20to%20install%20Ubuntu%20on%20MacBook%20using%20USB%20Stick  https://www.google.com/search?sclient=psy-ab&hl=en&site=webhp&source=hp&q=usb+ubuntu+macintosh&btnG=Search&gbv=1&sei=D_P4ToL7CMvZiAKO5aHiDg
[22:21] <ubuntunovice> i guess what im trying to say is is there an easier way to make a usb that boots on mac  without using the terminal?
[22:21] <Angablade> Yes
[22:21] <ubuntunovice> i will use terminal if have to
[22:21] <ubuntunovice> but i would rather use a gui
[22:21] <MonkeyDust> terminal *is* the way, don't have to use a gui ;)
[22:22] <Warp4> urlin2u, 10.04.3
[22:23] <urlin2u> Warp4, you can install the beta or stable firefox ppa to get a upto date.
[22:23] <ubuntunovice> i have a macbook 2,2 if that helps any
[22:23] <MonkeyDust> Warp4  careful with daily builds, i used one and it ruined my system
[22:24] <Angablade> ubuntunovice, easy solution: Install grub
[22:25] <Angablade> I personally use Graphical boot manager
[22:25] <ubuntunovice> how would i do that??
[22:25] <Warp4> urlin2u, ppa???
[22:25] <Angablade> it comes in the ubuntu install
[22:25] <Angablade> or
[22:25] <Angablade> you can download it from the net
[22:25] <Angablade> burn it
[22:25] <Angablade> install
[22:25] <FloodBot1> Angablade: Please don't flood; use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste; don't use Enter as punctuation.
[22:25] <Warp4> MonkeyDust, yeah thats why id rather use the latest RELEASE version from mozilla.com
[22:25] <ubuntunovice> im on osx snow leopard and cd drive is broken
[22:25] <ubuntunovice> on the macbook
[22:26] <Angablade> You can always use a usb disk drive
[22:26] <sedeki> Is there anyway to remove "Ubuntu one" from the Mail-drop down menu in gnome?
[22:27] <ubuntunovice> thats what im trying to do, but everything i have found says to use the terminal, and thats such a hassle
[22:27] <urlin2u> Warp4, https://launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-stable
[22:27] <Warp4> urlin2u, thanks
[22:28] <sedeki> indeed it's very generous of the ubuntu community (5 gb in the so called cloud) but it is also a bit annoying :-P
[22:29] <cliffybx> terminal is a awsome thing
[22:29] <jeaton> everytime my desktop updates, I get a new kernel added to my grub menu, now i can select between maybe 10 different kernels
[22:29] <jeaton> anyway of doing away with all the old ones?
[22:29] <ubuntunovice> so im guessing i have to use the terminal then ?
[22:30] <urlin2u> Warp4, if you run this command it will put the ppa in the sources.list.d file and set the key then just run a update and upgrade. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-stable
[22:30] <ubuntunovice> and jeaton: http://techfrp.blogspot.com/2010/12/remove-extra-kernel-entries-from-ubuntu.html
[22:30] <trism> sedeki: my guess would be removing ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk and then logging out/back in
[22:31] <sedeki> also that gwibber thing
[22:31] <trism> sedeki: for that just remove gwibber
[22:31] <metaspike> jeaton - sudo aptitude purge ~ilinux-image-.*\(\!`uname -r`\)       (remove all kernels, except the one im using)
[22:31] <msterbrewer> how do i change keyboards
[22:31] <msterbrewer> to type in a different language
[22:32] <opalepatrick> just loaded ubuntu 11.10 with unity. have a very slow speed with wi-fi using ath9_htc - tried a couple of suggestions around the forums but nothing definitive. Still slow. Upload twice as fast as download! any ideas?
[22:32] <Warp4> urlin2u, thank you :)
[22:32] <urlin2u> Warp4, no problem the new version should pick up the old ones bookmarks and adjustments if any yet.
[22:32] <sedeki> sudo apt-get remove gwibber
[22:33] <sedeki> This action will remove gwibber and ubuntu-desktop (!)
[22:33] <sedeki> No, thanks!
[22:33] <Warp4> urlin2u, then just run 'apt-get upgrade' right?
[22:33] <MonkeyDust> sedeki  only the meta package of ubuntu-desktop, it's harmless
[22:33] <trism> sedeki: it is alright to remove ubuntu-desktop, but another option is to remove the file /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/gwibber.indicator
[22:34] <urlin2u> Warp4, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade  as one line will get you both.
[22:34] <Warp4> urlin2u, thats what i did :)
[22:34] <Warp4> thanks again
[22:34] <trism> sedeki: although it may come back later if gwibber is updated
[22:34] <urlin2u> Warp4, np. :D
[22:34] <sedeki> i'll remove ubuntu-desktop and gwibber
[22:35] <Warp4> urlin2u, i was able to get Earlybird to run from the mozilla archive though :)  just needed the ia32 libs :)
[22:39] <cliffybx> anyone know how to enter ubuntu in super user mode?
[22:39] <urlin2u> cliffybx, why?
[22:40] <cliffybx> >urlin2u..i cannot update..permission denied
[22:40] <Warp4> cliffybx, try using 'sudo' before the rest of your command
[22:40] <urlin2u> cliffybx, you can reset the password.
[22:41] <Warp4> cliffybx, or run 'sudo su -' before running your command
[22:41] <Raliegh> Is there an apt-get command for virtualbox on Ubuntu?
[22:42] <urlin2u> cliffybx, is it a password problem or another?
[22:42] <cliffybx> >Warp4>urlin2u>thanks..it works
[22:42] <Raliegh> I keep getting a reference message, and eff if I know what version I have to input or whatever.
[22:42] <urlin2u> Raliegh, I get it from virtualbox it used to be if you want usb com=nnect in virtualbox you need that one
[22:43] <urlin2u> connect
[22:43] <MonkeyDust> Raliegh  the repos have vbox-ose, it's different from oracle vbox
[22:43] <Raliegh> urlin2u, do I have to use Wget and compile? I haaate doing that, haha.
[22:43] <MonkeyDust> Raliegh  make sure you don't mix them
[22:44] <urlin2u> Raliegh, no just download it and use the software center, or install gdebi, I use gdebi.
[22:44] <janisozaur> Raliegh, what MonkeyDust said, but vbox (oracle) has its own repos - afair
[22:44] <Raliegh> I don't have GUI url, it's a server and I'm getting VBox before I install VNC and lxde
[22:44] <Raliegh> I used the command on this page
[22:44] <Raliegh> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox/Installation
[22:44] <Raliegh> Did I do well? :D
[22:44] <gsedej> Hi! Can someone help me with reading bootchart.png file?
[22:46] <janisozaur> Raliegh, haven't checked those instructions, but if you want oracle-vbox and include their repos add this to your apt sources: "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian oneiric contrib"
[22:46] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: post it then ask the channel again
[22:47] <janisozaur> Raliegh, you might also want to add the keys for the repo - but please state if you want this info pasted from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
[22:48] <cliffybx> what is the different between fedora and ubuntu?
[22:48] <MonkeyDust> cliffybx  fedora is based on redhat, ubuntu is based on debian
[22:50] <janisozaur> cliffybx, they have different package managers, (slightly) different ways of achieving similar goals and they have a bit different target audience
[22:50] <cliffybx> but they use linux as core right?
[22:50] <janisozaur> cliffybx, yes, they do. you can list many distros on distrowatch.com
[22:50] <MonkeyDust> cliffybx  linux is always the core, the distro is everything around the core
[22:51] <urlin2u> cliffybx, pretty good support for both as well
[22:51] <cliffybx> =)thanks guys
[22:51] <wisemonk> hi
[22:54] <Raliegh> I used that command (and from looking at it it adds the repo, adds the keys, and installs VBox) but I'm stuck at this line. 63% [1 virtualbox-4.1 2143 kB/66.5 MB 3%]
[22:54] <Raliegh> It just won't move from 63%.
[22:54] <gsedej> Hi! Could someone help me find out why my boot time is so big? ( aeon-ltd ) http://shrani.si/f/e/nz/4kYxGoSB/gasper-laptop-natty-2011.png
[22:54] <Guest22714> Does anyone know how to enable vesa as a default ?
[22:54] <dummy213> i need help bad guys…i tried using trucrypt to make a hidden OS and messed up. Now even when I try and reformat my entire HD with my win install disk I still get the popup and I can't install any OS.
[22:55] <raven> any cmd to do scp as move?
[22:55] <Raliegh> I hit enter and it brought me back to plain bash input mode... So maybe it did correctly install. Any way to check this via command? Maybe check the version or something?
[22:55] <janisozaur> Raliegh, their servers are pretty slow. it means vbox is still downloading, you can restart apt-get (ctrl-c to stop it)
[22:55] <janisozaur> Raliegh, re-run apt-get
[22:55] <dummy213> Erm. I mean not a popup but the command line screen on boot up
[22:56] <cliffybx> are gnome 3 is some kind of OS?
[22:56] <mongy> Raliegh, I find installing from vbox repo sometimes slow and unresponsive also.  I quit and try again
[22:56] <Raliegh>  virtualbox-4.1 4.1.8-75467~Ubuntu~natty
[22:56] <Raliegh>   virtualbox-4.0 4.0.14-74382~Ubuntu~natty
[22:56] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: you are running in virtualbox?
[22:56] <Raliegh> It doesn't seem like it's pulling anything from the Oracle repo.
[22:56] <gsedej> no
[22:56] <MonkeyDust> cliffybx  gnome is a graphical shell
[22:56] <daniel|lapdock> hi i have ubuntu on my phone and i dont know how to update without breaking the system
[22:56] <raven> any cmd to do scp as move?
[22:56] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, 11.10 instalation boots in 20sec
[22:56] <dummy213> Can anyone please help me out here?
[22:56] <metaspike> cliffybx, maybe you should search for your answer first, you will get better answers from the gnome website.
[22:56] <edbian> daniel|lapdock, You're afraid to run sudo apt-get upgrade?
[22:56] <rootLagfaifi> hi
[22:56] <cliffybx> ok
[22:56] <rootLagfaifi> hi
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> edbian, ya
[22:57] <edbian> dummy213, what's the issue?
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> I'm on ubuntu 9.04 on atrix 4g lapdock
[22:57] <janisozaur> raven, sshfs + mv?
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> it haz rly old xchats :[
[22:57] <edbian> daniel|lapdock, I suggest not updating thing :P
[22:57] <dummy213> edbian: i tried using trucrypt to make a hidden OS and messed up. Now even when I try and reformat my entire HD with my win install disk I still get the popup and I can't install any OS.
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> HaHaHaHaHaHa
[22:57] <dummy213> Now when I try and run installs the C drive runs the disk for a moment and just stops
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> on a serious note
[22:57] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: i'm not sure but are they both the same set up?
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> I need to get a newer xchat on here
[22:57] <daniel|lapdock> and change the awful gtk theme...
[22:57] <edbian> dummy213, do you have an Ubuntu live CD?
[22:57] <MonkeyDust> cliffybx  start here http://mybroadband.co.za/news/software/32474-a-windows-users-guide-to-linux.html
[22:57] <edbian> dummy213, and a windows xp disc?
[22:58] <Raliegh> It doesn't seem like it's pulling anything from the Oracle repo, even though I just manually added the repo into my sources.list
[22:58] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, i have dualboot. 11.10 boots great
[22:58] <Raliegh>   virtualbox-4.0 4.0.14-74382~Ubuntu~natty
[22:58] <edbian> daniel|lapdock, run sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade   if you don't feel safe doing that you can't update
[22:58] <sms> Hello all! I'm getting blank pink screen after updating from 10.10 to 11.10. I'm noob, please help.
[22:58] <janisozaur> cliffybx, most probably there is also #gnome channel
[22:58] <daniel|lapdock> edbian, ok
[22:58] <cliffybx> >monkeydust thanks=)
[22:58] <dummy213> edbian: yes. I have tried booting live from cd and it just goes back to command line thats unresponsive. The win cd will not install OS but lets me get rid of partitions. I have reformatted, deleted, extended etc.
[22:58] <mongy> dummy213, I prefer cryptsetup for making encrypred partitions.  can be used with the Disk Utility app
[22:58] <janisozaur> !tab | cliffybx
[22:59] <edbian> dummy213, what partitions are on there now?
[22:59] <edbian> dummy213, Is there any OS that boots from the HDD?
[22:59] <Raliegh> Oh well, I don't need 'USB support' so I'll just use one of those packages.
[22:59] <dummy213> edbian: Only one that I know of now, but obviously there is an outer partition going on if it is running a win program somehow at bootup
[22:59] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: if they aren't set up to run the same daemons/services at boot it's not really a fair test, i suppose the newer kernel would have something to do with it also changes in the daemons/services setup
[22:59] <dummy213> edbian: no os
[22:59] <edbian> dummy213, what happens when you boot the HD ?  a win program?
[22:59] <dummy213> edbian: I don't even have enough room for an OS from what I have done, at least one wouldn't expect
[22:59] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, is there someting i can disable?
[22:59] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: you could remove daemons you don't use they will cut a few seconds depending on what they are
[23:00] <dummy213> edbian: when I boot without a cd it says the following
[23:00] <cliffybx> =)thanks guys..there are Gnome channel
[23:00] <metaspike> daniel|lapdock, i would change /etc/apt/sources.list to reflect orenic, then sudo aptitude dist-upgrade  or sudo aptitude safe-upgrade, if that looks messy.
[23:00] <stephenh> cliffybx: on a different network
[23:00] <stephenh> irc.gimp.org i believe it is
[23:01] <dummy213> edbian: Trucrypt Boot Loader 7.1 then asks for a password for the hidden system (no hidden system exists) or to press escape for the non hidden system (when I press escape it says no OS detected and tells me to restart)
[23:01] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, which service could i remove?
[23:01] <edbian> dummy213, this is a bootloader that's in the MBR it is not a partition or an OS
[23:02] <edbian> dummy213, if you can get any linux to load I can help you remove it
[23:02] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, fsck?
[23:02] <dummy213> edbian: do you know any way to wipe it from cmd on a win install disk?
[23:02] <edbian> dummy213, try running fixmbr
[23:02] <edbian> dummy213, in windows
[23:02] <cliffybx> Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.TimedOut: Activation of org.freedesktop.PackageKit timed out
[23:02] <cliffybx> how can i fix that..always get that erorr after update
[23:02] <dummy213> edbian: ok i will do.
[23:02] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: no
[23:02] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, app-armor ?
[23:03] <aeon-ltd> gsedej: start simple, do you use ssh?
[23:03] <dummy213> edbian: it manages to read my linux live cd but if I try to get it to do anything past going into english it doesn't work
[23:03] <dummy213> edbian: anyways I'm loading the win install disk now
[23:05] <metaspike> dummy213, if you wanted to, you could load a linux live distro, any distro and use dd to nuke it: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda
[23:05] <dummy213> edbian: it says fixmbr is not a command
[23:05] <gsedej> aeon-ltd, private chat
[23:06] <dummy213> metaspike: i can't even get it to load to a desktop on the live cd's it just goes back to my dos command line as though the comp just started up with an unresponsive c drive
[23:06] <edbian> dummy213, hang on
[23:06] <dummy213> ok
[23:07] <edbian> dummy213, http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/bootcons_fixmbr.mspx?mfr=true
[23:07] <edbian> dummy213, It is a command
[23:07] <dummy213> it says not recognized blah blah blah
[23:07] <dummy213> hm
[23:07] <metaspike> cant load a live linux distro? have you checked boot order in bios?
[23:08] <Raliegh> So... I get this at the end of Virtualbox installation.
[23:08] <Raliegh> http://pastebin.com/aJcvrsm8
[23:08] <Warp4> hmm the download link for the linux version of picasa doesnt work anymore
[23:08] <dummy213> metaspike: I can get it to like…load the disk to the menu with the options to install. but it is unresponsive after this
[23:09] <dummy213> edbian: any equivalent of single user mode for win?
[23:09] <edbian> dummy213, in ubuntu? recovery mode
[23:09] <edbian> dummy213, in windows?  IDK, ask in ##windows
[23:09] <dummy213> because running it off of the win install disk I'm in X: and not C:
[23:09] <dummy213> thanks for your help edbian
[23:09] <edbian> I have my ubuntu web server operating on a godaddy domain name.  What company should I use instead of godaddy?
[23:09] <edbian> dummy213, sure
[23:10] <Warp4> edbian, a godaddy domain name?
[23:10]  * Warp4 uses GoDaddy as his registrar
[23:10] <edbian> dummy213, sure
[23:10] <edbian> Warp4, I am hating godaddy because of this SOPA non-sense
[23:10] <metaspike> dyndns.com         SOPA IS BOLLOCKS
[23:10] <Warp4> edbian, oh so you want to change registrars then
[23:10] <edbian> metaspike, do they do domain registration?
[23:11] <edbian> Warp4, yes
[23:11] <metaspike> yeah
[23:11] <Warp4> edbian, Network Solutions?
[23:11] <edbian> Warp4, thanks
[23:11] <edbian> metaspike, thanks
[23:11] <Warp4> edbian, or even Tucows (aka OpenSRS)
[23:11] <edbian> Warp4, thanks I'll check them out too

[23:13] <liinux> Hi ... how to mount a partition read-only ?
[23:13] <metaspike> hur, all i ever used dyndns for is to register my own server for freebie, dunno what their hosting plan is like, opendns you say?
[23:14] <Boreeas> So, I'm trying to transfer some files with FTP. But I'm getting a Permissions denied when uploading files
[23:14] <edbian> fear*
[23:14] <Boreeas> I'm having rw access on he dir, though

[23:15] <edbian> Ahh I found the domain registration on dyndns is only $15
[23:15] <liinux> Hi ... how to mount a partition read-only ?
[23:16] <metaspike> liinux, i think like this   mount -o r /dev/foo /bar
[23:16] <metaspike> maybe mount -o ro - cant remember
[23:16] <liinux> metaspike: ok .. thinks
[23:16] <metaspike> yeah it's ro
[23:16] <metaspike> change /etc/fstab to make the setting permanment
[23:17]  * metaspike failed the spelling bee
[23:18] <metaspike> Boreeas, is that an error? it just looks like the permissions of a director
[23:18] <dummy213> ok i got the true crypt to go away!
[23:18] <Raliegh> Okay, more virtualbox installation errors. I'm getting this:  virtualbox-4.1 : Depends: libssl1.0.0 (>= 1.0.0) but it is not installable

[23:19] <dummy213> np
[23:19] <freeroute> hi, my MSI Wind u100 is having random kernel panics (it crashes to tty with lots of verbose output, during which I can't do anything, system=frozen), next time it crashes I want to run a livecd and check the logs... so my question is: which logs should I check to find out more?
[23:19] <liinux> ok
[23:19] <Warp4> Raliegh, you need to install those libs
[23:19] <metaspike> ah Boreeas, you may have to change the settings for the ftp server itself as well, also you may want to apply permissions recursively if not done so with chown -hR
[23:19] <Raliegh> I tried Warp4, but as that output shows... They're unavailable?
[23:20] <Warp4> Raliegh, what command did you use?
[23:20] <linuxtiger> heya all happy holidays
[23:20] <dummy213> is (x86) or (x64) for a 64bit?
[23:20] <Volkswagner> Seveas:  I got it working...  I changed the printer protocol to how CUPS discovered it... "dnssd://Brother%20MFC-5890CN._printer._tcp.local/"  No need for iPrint branded printer!
[23:20] <Raliegh> Well for those errors, "apt-get install virtualbox-4.1". Trying to manually install the libs listed brings up either not found or  "not an installation candidate" stuff.
[23:21] <Warp4> so it looks like google removed their linux version of picasa
[23:21] <Raliegh> Warp4: http://pastebin.com/t6ETvk42
[23:21] <metaspike> freeroute, /var/log/messages   is the kernel log   /var/log/Xorg.0.log may also give you some answers,  cat /foo | grep whatever . is a good way to define your lookup
[23:21] <Raliegh> Output of "apt-get install libssl1.0.0
[23:22] <Raliegh> Nobody has any ideas? x.x
[23:22] <Ibis> Has anyone experienced any problem with using Ubuntu on a z68 motherboard?
[23:23] <Raliegh> BRB, noodle making time.
[23:23] <metaspike> Raliegh, I think qemu > virtualbox - if you want to resolve dependency errors, use aptitude instead.
[23:24] <Boreeas> metaspike: How do I change the permissions for the ftp server?
[23:24] <Raliegh> Aptitude is not found, and I've never heard of qemu. I just need some sort of virtual OS system so I can run Windows under my Ubuntu server.
[23:24] <freeroute> metaspike: I don't have /var/log/messages, but I do have dmesg and the other, but what's troubling is that I don't know what causes the kernel panics, it could be virtually anything :(
[23:24] <metaspike> Boreeas, depends, what ftp server are you using? man "my-ftp-server"
[23:25] <metaspike> Raliegh, apt-cache search libssl
[23:26] <metaspike> freeroute, kernel panics usually indicate something you cant fix easily, what are you trying to install?
[23:27] <Boreeas> metaspike: Yeah.. that's the problem - I have no idea what ftp server I am using, it was preinstalled. is there a way to get a list of installed programs?
[23:27] <freeroute> metaspike: nothing, it just sits idling and when I come back to take a look I find the crime scene
[23:29] <metaspike> Boreeas, dpkg-query -l
[23:29] <joylinux> nnj
[23:29] <metaspike> Boreeas, dpkg-query -l | grep ftp     - to search for "ftp" from said list
[23:29] <XeonBloomfield> Hello
[23:29] <joylinux> indonesian
[23:30] <XeonBloomfield> What is a name of app which shows /home/user/ usage size in GUI (circle with folders with part of its size)
[23:30] <XeonBloomfield> ?
[23:30] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, Filelight
[23:30] <Raliegh> http://pastebin.com/pGarAjhE
[23:30] <metaspike> freeroute, that's crazy... could be anything. if you mount it from a live disk, it would be  cat /media/sda1/var/log/messages   or some such. i would switch kernels or OS entirely.
[23:30] <Raliegh> That's what I get after installing VBox using LXDE
[23:30] <Raliegh> What do? x.x
[23:31] <metaspike> XeonBloomfield, gdmap
[23:31] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, there's one for GNOME too (disk space explorer I think it's called) but Filelight is the KDE one
[23:31] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: it is "gdmap" as said metaspike
[23:32] <XeonBloomfield> metaspike and philpem: thx for help ;)
[23:32] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, metaspike -- thanks for that, been looking for that one for a while :)
[23:32] <Tux> freeroute, post a fuller error
[23:32] <Raliegh> Anybody?
[23:32] <Raliegh> x.x
[23:32] <Boreeas> yeah, metaspike, guess what: There are atleast two different ftpds installed <.<. Dunno who did that
[23:32] <philpem> um, hang on.. gdmap doesn't do the circles map. I'm getting squares, which doesn't look right at all
[23:32] <Tux> wrong person
[23:33] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: I just discovered it too
[23:33] <Tux> Raliegh, can you post the error in more detail
[23:33] <freeroute> Tux: I'm waiting for this to happen, when it does I'll take a picture of the output with my cellphone
[23:33] <Tux> freeroute, okay
[23:33] <freeroute> oh lol sorry
[23:33] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, Baobab
[23:33] <metaspike> Raliegh, the real problem is thatlinux-image-2.6.38-13-generic is unconfigured. try dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-2.6.38-13-generic  - for your real problem to be revealed /resolved.
[23:33] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, that's the Gnome one
[23:33] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, got that from "apt-cache search disk analyze"
[23:34] <Raliegh> Tux: That Pastebin is all the detail it gives me. I'm trying to install virtualbox via SSH (used Aptitude), and I get that at the end of the installation. I'm using LXDE as my GUI.
[23:34] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, it pulls in gnome-utils-common too; not sure why.
[23:34] <Tux> metaspike, he IS configuring the kernel
[23:34] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, tree view and file sizes on left, pie chart on right, that one?
[23:34] <Jonii_> What all sorts of programs and stuff are tracking everything you do with your ubuntu, by default, and how to uninstall all of them?
[23:34] <Tux> Raliegh, I guess you were also updating as well
[23:34] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: I was looking exactly for that - thx ;)
[23:35] <Tux> freeroute, I am still here to help you
[23:35] <Tux> do post a photo
[23:35] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: but - by the way - gdmap is nice too ;)
[23:35] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, I'm not fond of gdmap.
[23:35] <philpem> I've been doing a ton of disc cleaning today... seems to be the flavour of the week :)
[23:35] <philpem> managed to free up enough space to completely clear a pair of 500gig hotswap drives :)
[23:36] <trcia> I have an issue with Apache, I am sure it is simple but I am n00b. So I have installed Apache and tested it on the local address (<IP_ADDRESS>) and I get the it works message but as soon as I try the external IP I cannot contact the server
[23:36] <dummy213> edbian: Hey the install failed. I am at the ubuntu install menu where it ask to try out ubuntu without installing etc.
[23:36] <metaspike> "it pulls in gnome-utils-common"   it's probably "recommended" skip with apt-get -R
[23:36] <dummy213> I can't try it live though, but is there anything I can do from that menu?
[23:36] <philpem> just need to delete a bunch of duplicate files on the 1TB USB and the other two hotswaps... FSlint lists the duplicates, but not their paths :-/
[23:37] <metaspike> trica, you have to open the ports to your computer from your router...
[23:37] <Tux> trcia, did you open the port (assuming you are using a firewall here)
[23:37] <metaspike> trcia^
[23:37] <philpem> fdupes lists the duplicates but doesn't have the pretty UI :-/
[23:37] <trcia> I just added a port forward to the router and I still have no luck
[23:37] <Tux> Is it to the right IP?
[23:37] <trcia> yea
[23:37] <Tux> Okay, I will try
[23:37] <trcia> just did a ifconfig
[23:37] <philpem> so I'm going to ask... does anyone know of any duplicate file finders like FSlint or Fdupes which have a nice UI *and* list the paths of the files in the duplicates list?
[23:37] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: O.o - 4 builds of wine from tarball - 3 GB :P
[23:38] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, five years of photography work, 190GB!
[23:38] <dummy213> hey metaspike: my install of win failed. I cleared mbr while in the win install disk
[23:38] <Jonii_> I mean, for example, ubuntu 11.10, it lists programs i use often, and files i use often. How do i get rid of all that data? How do I make sure its never ever saved anywhere on my computer?
[23:38] <Raliegh> Tux: updating?
[23:38] <Tux> Raliegh, I am helping trcia
[23:38] <dummy213> I am at the boot options screen for the ubuntu disk, but I can't go live. Is there any way to fix it from there?
[23:38] <metaspike> dummy213, im not here for win support, sorry v_v
[23:38] <dummy213> no no
[23:38] <Jonii_> And what other hidden tracking stuff there is preinstalled on ubuntu?
[23:39] <dummy213> I am trying to install ubuntu xD
[23:39] <Tux> Raliegh, I assume you were updating the kernel?
[23:39] <trcia> Tux: thanks
[23:39] <Tux> trcia, I can reach it from my end
[23:39] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: One second of Seagate disk fail and 1.5 TB disk permanent damaged xD It has about 1.2 TB data...
[23:39] <trcia> dam
[23:39] <Tux> tux@metaknight:~$ curl -I <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:39] <Tux> HTTP/1.1 200 OK
[23:39] <Raliegh> Tux: Not that I know of, no... o.o It's just a fresh installation, installed lxde, installed tightvncserver, and tried to install virtualbox.
[23:39] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: It had*
[23:39] <dummy213> metaspike: I am trying to install ubuntu xD
[23:39] <metaspike> dummy213, ah ok. all I can say is trust in the default options and automagic settings unless you know exactly how it works... :)
[23:40] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, yecch, I swore off seagate drives after i had one launch itself across the desk while it was on bench-test
[23:40] <trcia> tux: can you navigate to it via browser
[23:40] <Tux> trcia, curl also makes HTTP requests
[23:40] <dummy213> metaspike: I have no clue what you are talking about…when i try to have it just install ubuntu it just goes to C:
[23:40] <freeroute> thanks Tux, I have my camera on standby :)
[23:40] <pooltable> help how get rid of unity make 11.10 look like 11.04??
[23:41] <trcia> why would i not be able to see it
[23:41] <zabomber> !w Melbourne
[23:41] <RickX> can anyone point me to docs on how to install Ubuntu Netbook on a 10.04 install?
[23:41] <Tux> pooltable, http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/classicgnome
[23:41] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: Imagine disk's "magnetic hand" (that moving part inside HDD) brushing whole surface of disk xD
[23:41] <philpem> hmm, two directories, same name, same number of files, same size. why do I suspect that rsync will say "nothing to do!"
[23:41] <Raliegh> Tux: Care to get to me when you're done with trcia? :)
[23:41] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, oww, that's called a "head crash" and is really nasty :(
[23:41] <metaspike> dummy213, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromCD  ?
[23:41] <zabomber> interesting
[23:42] <Ben64> RickX: should just be "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook"
[23:42] <Tux> Raliegh, I told them I could reach their Apache from the Internet. I'm helping freeroute atm
[23:42] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: and grinding sound from the disk - invaluable ;)
[23:42] <trcia> XeonBloomfield: someone is triping
[23:42] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, i had an IBM that did that. the platters were glass, and all the silver was scraped clean off. turned it into a clock until someone knocked it off the wall and broke it :(
[23:43] <metaspike> nice.
[23:43] <XeonBloomfield> trcia: What means "triping"?
[23:43] <trcia> someone forgot to say please
[23:43] <RickX> Ben64: thanks. I had Netbook Remix 8.04 on this netbook, then installed 10.04. Do you think "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-netbook" will basically give me the same ting?
[23:43] <metaspike> im going to get all my old hardware together and build me some body armour
[23:43] <Raliegh> Tux: Bugger, lmao. Well shoot me a highlight when you think you can help me. Good job in here btw. :)
[23:43] <Tux> trcia, in your router/apache logs
[23:43] <Tux> ?
[23:43] <trcia> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tripping
[23:43] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, the data recovery place described it as "like putting a load of shredded paper dust back into a document, completely impossible"
[23:43] <Tux> ah
[23:43] <philpem> *turning a load...
[23:43] <dummy213> metaspike: thank you
[23:44] <Ben64> RickX: I believe so, probably gives you an option on login as to which environment you would want to load
[23:44] <metaspike> dummy213, ka pai
[23:44] <RickX> Ben64: Thanks.. I'll give it a try
[23:44] <almoxarife> Tripping (pipe), the act of running or pulling drill pipe into or out of a wellbore on a drilling rig ??
[23:46] <CrownWheel> Hey, Ubuntu channel.  Question about misbehavior in Thunar.
[23:46] <CrownWheel> I've got an Xubuntu Live USB install.  Thunar won
[23:46] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: Did you heard the same strange noise like I during yours IBM disk fail?
[23:46] <CrownWheel> t display the contents of /home/ubuntu.
[23:47] <trcia> Tux: i can see you accessing it thanks
[23:47] <philpem> XeonBloomfield, probably. like the squeal of fingers on a chalkboard?
[23:47] <CrownWheel> It fails with a "transport endpoint not connected" error on .gvfs.
[23:47] <Shark> Bonsoir
[23:47] <XeonBloomfield> philpem: grinding sound rather
[23:47] <CrownWheel> This seems to be an old and well known issue with Thunar and with .gvfs  (whatever gvfs is).
[23:47] <Shark> FR HELP IRC ?
[23:48] <Guest22402> FR HELP IRC ?
[23:48] <metaspike> gnome virtual file system, i think.
[23:48] <CrownWheel> Is there an equally old and well known fix that I'm just unaware of?
[23:48] <Ben64> !fr | Guest22402
[23:48] <CrownWheel> metaspike, thanks.  better guess than I could have made.
[23:50] <CrownWheel> metaspike, any idea what would corrupt permissions to a directory's .gvfs subdirectory?
[23:50] <metaspike> not a clue :)
[23:51] <wes> does the fady grey screen mean something specific, like the load avg is too high, or the kernel is paging?
[23:51] <CrownWheel> This is just as described in an old Fedora 9 forum post.  .gvfs permissions list as ?????? and Thunar refuses to display anything in /~
[23:51] <CrownWheel> er, in ~/
[23:51] <CrownWheel> Also, I went to look at mtab, to see if the gvfs was actually mounted somewhere.
[23:51] <jimisrvrox2> hey guys quick question...having a problem with grep.. grep '<div class="related"><a href=' /media/Lenovo__/Lifehacker_Posts_2/Opera/* > /media/Lenovo__/Content.txt | gives me a bunch of <p> and <img src= when what I am looking for is <div class="related"><a href="site">2itch</a> [via <a href="site">site</a>]</div> any suggestions as to how to fix this grep?
[23:52] <CrownWheel> /etc/mtab now has I/O error on access attempt, and similarly screwed up permissions.
[23:52] <metaspike> CrownWheel, if your lucky. sudo dpkg-reconfigure gvfs - will return the sanity
[23:52] <wes> jimisrvrox2: at a glance, your single quote and asterisk in your regular expression are probably errors
[23:52] <Boreeas> So, apparently I had to enable write-enabled=YES in the vsftpd.conf
[23:53] <CrownWheel> I'll give it a shot.  Irks me, though.  Like, this is an out of the "box" install and the file manager has stopped working.  Seems like a major quality issue ...
[23:53] <Boreeas> Dunno why it worked fine before, though
[23:53] <metaspike> jimisrvrox2, are you trying to grep a html file?   I would   cat /site.html | grep "seachterm"
[23:53] <wes> jimisrvrox2: my suggestion is to escape the *, and change to " quotes around the RE, then escape any double quotes inside
[23:53] <jimisrvrox2> yeah grepping html
[23:54] <metaspike> Boreeas, glad you figured it out. :)
[23:54] <almoxarife> CrownWheel: what are you trying to mount?
[23:55] <CrownWheel> almoxarife, I'm not trying to mount anything. I'm trying to get Thunar to display contents of /home/ubuntu
[23:55] <wes> jimisrvrox2: so, this is probably correct (but untested): grep "<div class=\"related\"><a href=\"site\">2itch</a>" filename.html   if that's really what you want
[23:55] <Othi`> hi - i'm trying to install a small version of ubuntu on an 1gb usb stick, but it keeps erroring out that i don't have enough space. i'm installing from the mini.iso and selected command-line install. is there another way to get a minimal install?
[23:55] <CrownWheel> It fails because of something wrong with .gvfs
[23:55] <sultansingh> hory shit!
[23:55] <CrownWheel> ls -l of /home/ubuntu displays broken permissions flags for the .gvfs directory.
[23:55] <pangolin> !language | sultansingh
[23:55] <sultansingh> sorry
[23:55] <sultansingh> i'm just surprised
[23:56] <sultansingh> so many people here in irc
[23:56] <CrownWheel> The directory, itself, can't be interacted with "I/O error"
[23:56] <metaspike> Othi`, yeah, puppy linux >_<
[23:56] <sultansingh> it's more than #debian
[23:56] <Othi`> metaspike, does it have the ubuntu packages?
[23:56] <almoxarife> CrownWheel: and you are trying to do this from a local to local, same machine?
[23:57] <jimisrvrox2> wes: tried the \"related\" and still got extra crap
[23:57] <wes> jimisrvrox2: define crap
 and <img src= and so on
[23:57] <jimisrvrox2> instead of the line..
[23:57] <wes> jimisrvrox2: what exactly did you type, and can I see the file in the internet somewhere?
[23:57] <bonny_> Hello, can someone help me install minecraft?
[23:58] <CrownWheel> almoxarife, yeah.  same machine.  not remote.
[23:58] <metaspike> Othi, the ubuntu puppy variant does support ubuntu packages, but doesn't have dpkg so it's not prefect, but great for mini usb setups.
[23:58] <bonny__> Hello can someone help me install minecraft
[23:58] <RickX> Ben64: your suggestion worked, but did it install Unity?
[23:58] <Ben64> RickX: not sure
[23:58] <CrownWheel> almostroot, more or less out of the "box" Xubuntu live install.
[23:58] <jimisrvrox2> wes: sure im posting on a pastebin right now
[23:58] <Othi`> i'll try it, thanks metaspike
[23:59] <RickX> Ok :-) I'll poke around some more.
[23:59] <bonny__> Anyone here play minecraft on linux that can help me?
[23:59] <The_Partybros> <3 minecraft
[23:59] <CrownWheel> I installed a couple packages.  R, Maxima, and Jupiter (for netbook feature control)
[23:59] <bonny__> yeah partybros can u help me install it?
[23:59] <almoxarife> CrownWheel: very odd, thought about un-installing gvfs along with confs? do you use gvfs at all?
[23:59] <The_Partybros> never tried it on linux
