[04:16] <Boyyd> same network, different computer
[04:16] <LinuX2half> My desktop folder had disappeared and now the home folder is replaced with it....
[04:16] <deefzi> Out_Cold, ah. thanks, changed package name apparently
[04:16] <Lostinspace_46> I just installed emacs 23.1 and the install went great.  However, it seems to have installed with no launcher.  Any ideas?
[04:16] <LinuX2half> How do I get my desktop folder back...?
[04:16] <ouyes> cowbud,  the issue Pla have been properly solved?
[04:16] <codebx> yeah, you'll need a samba client to talk with windows I believe
[04:16] <komputes> !samba | Boyyd
[04:16] <codebx> komputes: nice :)
[04:16] <sbilik> ouyes: isn't installing a new kernel a bit overkill?
[04:17] <ouyes> codebx, what do you try to say?
[04:17] <fwaokda> I downloaded eclipse and I'm wanting to put the program folder with my other programs would that be in /usr/local/bin ?
[04:17] <ouyes> sbilik, what are you trying to say
[04:18] <LinuX2half>  My desktop folder had disappeared and now the home folder is replaced with it....How do I get my desktop folder back?
[04:18] <grkblood> Out_Cold, they only have it for 9.04
[04:18] <grkblood> not 9.10
[04:18] <ouyes> codebx,  mix you two,somebody ever told me the 64-flash have problem itseldf
[04:18] <grkblood> flashplugin-installer doesnt work
[04:18] <Out_Cold> LinuX2half, the folder on your desktop? or in nautilus?
[04:18] <komputes> LinuX2half: create a folder called Desktop then
[04:19] <Out_Cold> grkblood, maybe downgrade then?
[04:19] <komputes> LinuX2half: gedit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
[04:19] <sbilik> ouyes: why release 31?
[04:19] <Lostinspace_46> LinuX2half> Just go to home dir and make a new desnktop folder
[04:20] <Newk> two keys on my keyboard stopped functioning in ubuntu but are not broken the 'delete' key and the 'down arrow' key.. anyone can help getting them back?
[04:20] <LinuX2half> Out_Cold: The desktop folder can't be viewed when going to my home folder but it remain on the panel. When I click on the desktop panel icon, it sent me to the home folder directory.
[04:20] <ouyes> sbilik, since there is no better way, why not give the compat-wireless a try, it wont do any big damage to your os, and if you do not know how to install it you can see the readme file or ill direct you finish the installation
[04:20] <komputes> LinuX2half: check in there that the right desktop folder is specified
[04:20] <ouyes> sbilik, you have the kernel
[04:20] <iflema> grkblood remove all other install versions.. if any, make a folder /home/[username]/.mozilla/plugings and extract the following file into it... then (re)start firefox...
[04:20] <ouyes> sbilik, 2.6.31-17-generic
[04:20] <sbilik> ouyes: I'll do that. Thanks for the pointer. This'll take some time.
[04:20] <iflema> grkblood http://download.macromedia.com/pub/labs/flashplayer10/libflashplayer-<IP_ADDRESS>.linux-x86_64.so.tar.gz
[04:20] <snayth> Is there a way to play a .wma music file in Karmic ? ?
[04:21] <Out_Cold> snayth, vlc should play it
[04:21] <deefzi> iflema, i wouldn't suggest installing anything which will be left out of apt :/
[04:21] <iflema> deefzi  never?
[04:21] <sbilik> ouyes: ah, I see. Compatible with the same rev kernel. Thanks.
[04:21] <ouyes> sbilik, there is no big difference, if there is any problem during your installation , you can ask me here directly
[04:21] <Lostinspace_46> I just installed emacs 23.1 and the install went great.  However, it seems to have installed with no launcher.  Any ideas?
[04:22] <Lunis_> :< why does docky have to be written in mono? it makes my heart saddened.
[04:22] <sbilik> ouyes: I'll have to try this tomorrow.
[04:22] <deefzi> well, in ultimate cases. but i have a 64-bit system and flash is def. made workable with the repository flash-plugins
[04:22] <snayth> Out_Cold; Oh yea - forgot about that - will give that a try. Thanks bunches
[04:22] <LinuX2half> It still doesn't work when I edit the user.dir foler
[04:22] <komputes> snayth: vlc, ffmpeg, depending on the version of the file gstreamer plugin packages. The easiest way is to install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[04:22] <grkblood> thanks iflema
[04:22] <sbilik> ouyes: did you have any thoughts on the link I sent you earlier?
[04:22] <Out_Cold> deefzi, i often find stuff not in apt... like bleeding edge or no name apps
[04:22] <komputes> LinuX2half: once you make the changes log out and back in
[04:22] <Thoven78> snayth: or go to ubuntu software center install ubuntu restricted extras and Rhythmbox will play it
[04:22] <xangua> Lunis_: you can use another dock if you don't like mono
[04:22] <LinuX2half> alright...
[04:22] <sbilik> ouyes: about using "bcm43xx-fwcutter" ?
[04:23] <Lunis_> xangua, 'course i can, but wasn't my torrid love affair with docky apparent? ;)
[04:23] <ouyes> sbilik, i give it a quick look but i think you maybe have not followed the instructions step by step
[04:23] <Lostinspace_46> LinuX2half> Try "touch ~/Desktop"
[04:23] <snayth> komputes, I have restricted but Totem came up and complained - I'll just right clk on file and change to VLC Player for default - Should be fine ...
[04:24] <ixian_> hey, is there a way to automatically mount windows ntfs partitions when ubuntu boots? preferably a gui way, but cli is fine too
[04:24] <Boyyd> hey
[04:24] <snayth> Thoven78, Thanks
[04:24] <LinuX2half> Nope, it doesn't work
[04:24] <Boyyd> Ubuntu is supposed to be accessible
[04:24] <sbilik> ouyes: I have some hope that it can be done. I got close with Linux Mint but it couldn't find a hidden ssid, only an open broadcasting one.
[04:24] <Boyyd> How come I can't access it from the middle of nowhere
[04:24] <LinuX2half> The desktop folder is still missing
[04:24] <Out_Cold> snayth, totem IMO sucks... i don't know many that actually keep and use it
[04:24] <ouyes> sbilik,  so we can try another way , copy the link i gave to you to a file, tomorrow you can referent to it if you come across any problem during the installation
[04:24] <Newk> ixian_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently
[04:25] <grkblood> did it an easier way
[04:25] <komputes> LinuX2half: did you create the Desktop folder in your Home folder?
[04:25] <Lostinspace_46> LinuX2half> Then I don't know..sorry
[04:25] <ouyes> sbilik, you even find the ssid?
[04:25] <grkblood> i just did a force--architecture on the newest deb
[04:25] <Dr_Willis> ixian_:  automatically would imply you diont need a gui or cli. :) add a proper entry in the fstab and it will mount properly
[04:25] <sbilik> ouyes: will do. Like I said, I'll try it tomorrow.
[04:25] <LinuX2half> komputer: No, I suppose not...
[04:25] <ouyes> sbilik, just can not make a connection
[04:25] <snayth> Out_Cold: Yea you got that right.
[04:25] <sbilik> ouyes: on Mint it can connect to open wifi
[04:25] <komputes> LinuX2half: you must do that
[04:25] <Dr_Willis> !ntfs-3g | ixian_
[04:25] <LinuX2half> komputer: I'm not sure of how to accomplish that.
[04:26] <sbilik> ouyes: but on Ubuntu it didn't even activate the Broadcom wifi
[04:26] <LinuX2half> komputer: I can only create folders or documents
[04:26] <Newk> oops
[04:26] <komputes> LinuX2half: Create a folder in your home folder, name it Desktop
[04:26] <sbilik> ouyes: on Mint it recognized and downloaded the proprietary driver and I could activate it.
[04:26] <gimbal> > hey has anyone thought about trying some rigorous conceptual reverse-engineering of Microsoft Live ID and Microsoft Passport, to extract some exacting but generallly non-patent-constrained principles represented in the design and implementation of as much?
[04:26] <sbilik> ouyes: on Ubuntu it's like it's not even there.
[04:27] <komputes> LinuX2half: file> new folder
[04:27] <IdleOne> !tab > LinuX2half
[04:27] <ouyes> sbilik, ok mate, try it tomorrow, ubuntu is good, but it need more improvement about hard driver support. also you really have a very old lap
[04:27] <gimbal> I mean, there's gotta be *something* in it that can be of use to the FOSS side of the design/development/deployment domain
[04:27] <gimbal> so I was thinking. and maybe it could be fun too
[04:27] <gimbal> if it was open enough!
[04:27] <Justin_`> How do I edit the /etc/passwd file?
[04:27] <Out_Cold> sbilik, mint uses restricted drivers that a pure ubuntu release doesn't install because of GPL
[04:27] <Dravekx> where can i got for ssh settings?
[04:27] <Thoven78> sbilik: in orther to activate the broadcom wifi your computer has to be connected through the internet
[04:27] <ixian_> newk Dr_Willis  thanks
[04:27] <sbilik> ouyes: yeah, the laptop is fairly old
[04:28] <IdleOne> gimbal: reverse engineering is illegal and offtopic in this channel
[04:28] <gimbal> asked in #linpeople and #redhat so far, but then it came to mind that #ubuntu would be ...
[04:28] <Justin_`> How do I edit the /etc/passwd file?
[04:28] <Harold_parker> man wtf if a directory is 775 and i'm in the group that owns it, why can't i create directories inside it?
[04:28] <gimbal> idleone: I think you missed my meaning
[04:28] <sbilik> Thoven78: at the time I was doing the updates, it was hardwired to the internet
[04:28] <ouyes> sbilik,  after your try tomorrow, if you see me online, give me a message about the result., wo done here and good luck
[04:28] <gimbal> IdleOne: I'm not talking about decompling exact software applications, conceptually nor literally
[04:28] <Lostinspace_46> snayth> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766683 at the end of this tut it tells you how to fix the totem thing
[04:28] <IdleOne> gimbal: no I didn't. this is ubuntu support channel. so your question is offtopic
[04:28] <sbilik> Out_Cold: yes, I'm aware of the difference in philosophy
[04:28] <LinuX2half> komputer: okay, I've created a new file in the desktop folder.
[04:28] <gimbal> IdleOne: what I am talking about is, in fact, perfectly legal, if we haven't gone so far as to ,....
[04:29] <Lunis_> gimbal, k, i'll bite. what's MSN/Live got that isn't already implemented in the world of FOSS?
[04:29] <gimbal> IdleOne: ugh. big ugh, dude
[04:29] <sbilik> ouyes: thanks for the pointers
[04:29] <gimbal> alright so this is the wrong platform to ask it about
[04:29] <gimbal> is what I'm getting
[04:29] <IdleOne> gimbal: #ubuntu-offtopic is open for chat
[04:29] <gimbal> IdleOne: aight, got it, thanks
[04:29] <IdleOne> welcome
[04:30] <Justin_`> Is there a way I can view all the packages that I am able to download?
[04:30] <LinuX2half> komputer: then what happens next?
[04:30] <gimbal> ...if we haven't gone so far as to have thought pollice. which is off topic indeed :)
[04:30] <ouyes> sbilik,  you are welcome, actually i did nothing, but you help youself, i just walk the way with you
[04:30]  * gimbal is used to the #linpeople ambiance
[04:30] <gimbal> sorries, going to go chew the cud for a minute
[04:30] <Out_Cold> Justin_`, in command line or synaptic?
[04:30] <snayth> Out_Cold: I forgot which site is a good place to temporarily post a screen capture - What do you use?
[04:30] <Justin_`> any
[04:30] <xumuk> Anybody knows why Evolution doesn't open links?
[04:30] <Out_Cold> !pastebin
[04:31] <sbilik> ouyes: my original question was: if I can't get it working stable-y, what PCMCIA cards would suffice with broad linux support
[04:31] <LinuX2half> be right back.
[04:31] <sbilik> ouyes: the only reply I got was Atheros chipsets work well.
[04:31] <Newk> can someone please help me get two keys from my keyboard back working in ubuntu?
[04:32] <Out_Cold> Newk, which version?
[04:32] <Dr_Willis> Justin_`:  what are you trying to acomplish? theres several 10,000x+ packages you COULD download.
[04:32] <Newk> karmic
[04:32] <Out_Cold> Dr_Willis, mine last said 28k
[04:32] <Justin_`> I want to see if there is a package to unrar .rar files (winrar)
[04:32] <blakkheim> sbilik: i already answered that
[04:32] <IdleOne> !unrar | Justin_`
[04:32] <Out_Cold> Justin_`, go in the admin menu and look for synaptic
[04:32] <blakkheim> sbilik: is there something wrong with atheros for you?
[04:32] <ouyes> sbilik,  whose replay, he meant Atheros were recommended, but not only,
[04:32] <LinuX2half> komputer: Great, it worked. I've repeated the steps that you announce. Thanks for the help.
[04:33] <blakkheim> ouyes: it was mine
[04:33] <LinuX2half> Be seeing ya...
[04:33] <komputes> LinuX2half: sorry for being silent last few mins, glad it worked
[04:33] <Dr_Willis> Justin_`:  the packlage manager tools have very good search features...
[04:33] <tomatoes7> does ubuntu server edition lack any features that are included in ubuntu desktop version?
[04:33] <shane2peru> is there no way to copy a very large file via command line and view a progress bar?
[04:33] <sbilik> blakkheim: nope, I'll look in that realm.
[04:33] <snayth> Lostinspace_46: Think it still play this file if I do what what you suggested ? Here is Error I got - http://imagebin.org/82505
[04:33] <Dr_Willis> tomatoes7:  it comes with a different kernel and no X/gui by default
[04:33] <Out_Cold> tomatoes7, a desktop and any normal gui apps
[04:34] <Dr_Willis> tomatoes7:  if  You want a desktop  eventually - use the desktop edition
[04:34] <ouyes> tomatoes7, no GUI
[04:34] <Out_Cold> Dr_Willis, unless you want the server kernel :p
[04:35] <komputes> Out_Cold: server kernel is being deprecated I've heard
[04:35] <Out_Cold> then use the desktop edition lol
[04:35] <Newk> Out_Cold: ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-18
[04:35] <Out_Cold> Newk, there used to be a file to change but not sure on 9.10
[04:36] <komputes> Out_Cold: noy enoy change to the regular kernel (plus they added extended memory addressing)
[04:36] <sbilik> Found a bunch of Atheros chipset cards at: http://atheros.rapla.net/
[04:36] <Out_Cold> komputes, over the 3 gb?
[04:37] <Dravekx> anyone know how to JAIL openSSH sftp users????
[04:37] <komputes> Out_Cold: yep, from what I've heard, not experienced personally yet
[04:37] <pilif12p> Dravekx: What do you mean by that?
[04:38] <Lostinspace_46> SnakDoc>  Hmmm, mplayer should play wma's. Check the tut, maybe totem will work with the info there, however the message looks like it's a file issue
[04:38] <Justin_`> When I SSH to my Ubuntu (Via Putty on my windows vista laptop) Every line has: WinSCP: this is end-of-file:0
[04:38] <Newk> Out_Cold: thanx for pointing out anyway
[04:38] <Out_Cold> komputes, i'm using 9.04 i think for server and couldn't get 64 bit going... still can't put out the processing i want
[04:38] <Out_Cold> Newk, i'm still looking bud... just a min
[04:38] <Xfact> I am using GNOME, KDE and Xfec in the same computer, by selecting different sessions...that can have any bad effect for performance level?
[04:39] <Newk> Out_Cold: ow thank you :p
[04:39] <Dravekx> pilif12p, I got rid of vsftpd, and I have access via sftp, but I'm hosting for a couple other people who have user accounts, and I want to jail them in their home directories
[04:39] <Justin_`> When I SSH to my Ubuntu (Via Putty on my windows vista laptop) Every line has: WinSCP: this is end-of-file:0. Is there any way to fix it?
[04:39] <semitones> Can I change a setting so I can close the lid of my laptop, and lift it back up without having to "unlock" anything?
[04:39] <cowbud> Justin_`: sounds like a windows problem
[04:40] <Justin_`> but if i then ssh with my account 'justin' its fine
[04:40] <Justin_`> the error only shows on the account 'dangt'
[04:40] <komputes> Hi Dravekx this is actually a multi step process, private message?
[04:40] <cowbud> Justin_`: but winscp references a windows program
[04:40] <Justin_`> humm ok
[04:40] <cowbud> Justin_`: I suggest googling that error message or parts of it and seeing what others have seen
[04:41] <semitones> I have a problem. When I close the lid of my laptop, and open it back up, it asks me to unlock my session. Is there a way of sidestepping this?
[04:41] <Out_Cold> Newk, i'm reading up here.. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaKeys should at least be a start..
[04:41] <Harold_parker> if a directory is 775 and i'm in the group that owns it, why can't i create directories inside it? (pls excuse spam)
[04:42] <Out_Cold> Newk, check out the kernel keycodes and see what you can get
[04:42] <Thoven78> semitones go to power management. there you should be able to fix that.
[04:42] <scott_ino2> semitones, you have to run gconf-editor to do that I think
[04:42] <BinaryMan> so...
[04:42] <Out_Cold> Harold_parker, you should be able to create new dir.
[04:43] <BinaryMan> why is all of the mythtv packages in the repo still .21?
[04:43] <Newk> Out_Cold: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Hotkeys/Troubleshooting was reading that too.. thanks for that other link!
[04:43] <Harold_parker> thanks Out_Cold, thats what i'd reasoned too
[04:43] <semitones> Thoven78: There were settings similar to what I need, but not exactly what I need there :\
[04:43] <scott_ino2> semitones,  run gconf-editor (from a Terminal or thru Alt+F2);
[04:43] <scott_ino2> - in the left tree, select apps > gnome-power-manager > lock;
[04:43] <scott_ino2> - uncheck the options you'll be free of. I unchecked blank_screen and use_screensaver_setting
[04:43] <scott_ino2> sorry
[04:43] <FloodBot4> scott_ino2: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:43] <semitones> scott_ino2: will that work in xubuntu also?
[04:43] <BinaryMan> here i am testing it on one of my boxes and finally realized i'm using .21 instead of .22
[04:44] <scott_ino2> semitones, ummm THAT I can't say for certain
[04:44] <scott_ino2> not sure how xfce does that
[04:44] <Mediaprodigy> Someone please help me see FLASH videos...
[04:44] <scott_ino2> semitones, try it, press Alt+F2 and see if you can do gconf-editor
[04:45] <komputes> Mediaprodigy: install the flashplugin-nonfree package
[04:45] <om26er> Mediaprodigy, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ?
[04:45] <semitones> scott_ino2: trying that now :)
[04:46] <lilzeus-web> is there a ubuntu room for apache?
[04:46] <Out_Cold> !flash > Mediaprodigy
[04:46] <pilif12p> lilzeus-web: there's #httpd
[04:46] <semitones> scott_ino2: only suspend and hibernate were selected, which is strange, since I had music playing the whole time, so I don't think it could have suspended.. heh
[04:46] <Out_Cold> lilzeus-web, there's also #apache
[04:47] <scott_ino2> semitones, i don't think i follow... Alt+f2 should take you to a "run application" dialog
[04:47] <rejohn> Where are the UUIDs for the partitions on the HDD for the system stored?
[04:47] <scott_ino2> run gconf-edito in a terminal
[04:47] <scott_ino2> and see what you get
[04:47] <lilzeus-web> well, for some reason my websites don't work anymore...and I didn't change anything that I know of
[04:47]  * hale is away: Gone away for now
[04:47] <rejohn> !uuid
[04:47]  * hale is back.
[04:47] <semitones> scott_ino2: when I was in the "lock" section, the only ones checked were hibernate and suspend
[04:48] <semitones> scott_ino2: I unchecked suspend, but I don't think my computer was suspended
[04:48] <rww> !away > hale
[04:48] <iWolf> If used all the instructions listed on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes - But nothing worked
[04:48] <iWolf> (eeepc 900)
[04:48] <lilzeus-web> I tried installing phpbb and I suspect it may have screwed up my apache
[04:48] <semitones> scott_ino2: so I don't know why it locked
[04:48] <iWolf> I've*
[04:49] <lilzeus-web> I have to 'register with services' in the #apache room if I want to ask questions?? what is that?
[04:49] <semitones> scott_ino2: ah I found it -- I have both ubuntu and xubuntu sessions. xfce has it's own set of settings I guess, and ignores all of gnome's settings
[04:49] <scott_ino2> semitones, you might need to make sure it's disabled in screensaver as well
[04:49] <seank> are there no settings for notifyosd?
[04:49] <rww> ubottu: register | lilzeus-web

[04:53] <lilzeus-web> talk about making things difficult
[04:53] <lilzeus-web> ugh
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> takes me all of 3 min to regiuster a nick name last time i had to.
[04:54] <Dr_Willis> Blame all the spam/attack bots/jerks
[04:54] <lilzeus-web> its probably been a couple months since I have been on, I don't remember this
[04:54] <semitones> They keep things interesting at least

[04:54] <rww> blakkheim: not so much :)
[04:54] <bob_> Quick question. How can I give myself root rights?
[04:55] <Out_Cold> lilzeus-web, the mail may be delayed.. but it's well worth the registration
[04:55] <pilif12p> bob_:  sudo su

[04:55] <raingrove> bob_: sudo su -
[04:55] <lilzeus-web> I would rather not give up my email just to chat
[04:55] <Dr_Willis> lilzeus-web:  then use some temp email address..
[04:55] <bob_> How/where do I do that?
[04:55] <semitones> lilzeus-web: I don't think you need an email..
[04:55] <maco> bob_: in a terminal...
[04:55] <pilif12p> bob_: In terminal

[04:55] <Out_Cold> lilzeus-web, it's freenode... very friendly and honest bunch
[04:56] <lilzeus-web> arrrrgg
[04:56] <lilzeus-web> freakin httpd requires the same thing
[04:56] <ezrafree> hello
[04:56] <Dr_Willis> http://www.mailinator.com/
[04:56] <semitones> lilzeus-web: although when I forgot my password, I wish I had used my email address
[04:56] <ezrafree> has anyone ever heard of firefox not opening files after they've downloaded?
[04:56] <Dr_Willis> semitones:  yep. there is that problem
[04:56] <ezrafree> like i can see them in my Downloads window but when i click on them nothing happens. any thoughts?
[04:56] <Out_Cold> semitones, you need an email to mask or reset passwords..
[04:56] <bob_> I am trying to load "Rockbox" on my IPOD and I need Root rights. If I SUDO in Terminal will that work?
[04:57] <lilzeus-web> is the apache here on freenode specific to apache for ubuntu?
[04:57] <Out_Cold> lilzeus-web, no.. apache source
[04:57] <pilif12p> lilzeus-web: no. You wont get spammed by registering your nick. Trust me...
[04:57] <semitones> bob_: the rule of thumb is: use "sudo" if the application is commandline, gksu if you're using a graphical application
[04:58] <lilzeus-web> well, I am trying to register, it opened up some NickServ channel or something
[04:58] <bob_> OK thanks. I'll give it a try.
[04:58] <semitones> bob_: and it's case sensitive, so SUDO wouldn't work, just sudo
[04:58] <bob_> Got it. Thanks
[04:58] <Dr_Willis> lilzeus-web:  thats because youia re 'chatting' with the nickserv bot.
[04:58] <bob_> BRB
[04:58] <semitones> bob_: :) good luck
[04:58] <Out_Cold> lilzeus-web, that is you private talking to the service nickserv
[04:58] <maco> lilzeus-web: nickserv is the service for registering and signing into your nick
[04:58] <gtn> doesn't sco own linux?
[04:58] <lilzeus-web> ok
[04:59] <lilzeus-web> I typed 'register' and it gave me an error
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> gtn:  they can barealy afford the rent on their offices...
[04:59] <bullgard> What is the most important difference between Tilda and Guake as seen from a user's perspective?
[04:59] <Dr_Willis>  lilzeus-web  try /msg nickserv COMMAND
[04:59] <semitones> Dr_Willis: How is he chatting with us if he hasn't registered yet?
[04:59] <gtn> somebody told me I had to pay $500 to sco to use linux
[04:59] <lilzeus-web> That command only works in chats, not IMs.
[04:59] <Out_Cold> lilzeus-web, you need register password you@email i think
[04:59] <Dr_Willis> semitones:  this channel does not require reg's most of the time i think
[04:59] <seank> gtn: no you don't...
[05:00] <Out_Cold> Dr_Willis, last week it was pretty bad in here..
[05:00] <seank> gtn: sco went bankrupt over that lawsuit, lost.
[05:00] <om26er> !torrents | gtn
[05:00] <semitones> lilzeus-web: try entering "help" at nickserv
[05:00] <om26er> and it free
[05:00] <maco> lilzeus-web: say "help register" to it
[05:00] <gtn> oh ok well i sold all of my valium to pay sco what do i do with $500

[05:01] <rumpsy> quietone: Are you sure?
[05:01] <futurama140> Dr_Willis: "install"
[05:01] <maco> quietone: #freenode
[05:02] <Out_Cold> quietone, i can pvt you for a quick lesson
[05:02] <quietone> I can't talk on #freenode without registering my nick
[05:02] <quietone> Out_Cold: yes please!
[05:02] <maco> quietone: /msg nickserv help register
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  where did you learn about that at? ive NEVER used the 'install' command in like.. ever.. in 10 + yrs of linux ussage
[05:02] <maco> quietone: then nickserv will give you instructions
[05:02] <pilif12p> quietone: /msg nickserv register password email
[05:02] <rumpsy> quietone: so, this is easy, you
[05:02] <Izinucs> !register > quietone
[05:02] <maco> Dr_Willis: the install command is commonly used inside .spec files for RPMs
[05:02] <rumpsy> quietone: follow pilif12p
[05:02] <pilif12p> rumpsy: kingring?
[05:02] <Boyyd> hello
[05:02] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  from teh docs yiou run the rowhatever command...  ./rowhatever
[05:02] <futurama140> Dr_Willis: ubuntu unleashed. and other people here last night.
[05:03] <rumpsy> pilif12p: Nothing, i asked quietone , to follow your command
[05:03] <futurama140> Dr_Willis: what?
[05:03] <maco> Dr_Willis: er, except not how futurama140 is saying
[05:03] <scott_ino2> maco, haven't heard someone mention .spec files in quite some time ;)
[05:03] <pilif12p> i know, i was asking if you were kingring
[05:03] <Boyyd> hi, I heard on the Hannity show that Ubuntu is the devil
[05:03] <Boyyd> speculations on this?
[05:03] <rumpsy> futurama140: What is your problem?
[05:03] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=657885    says cd to the dir. run ./rolauncher
[05:03] <lilzeus-web> ok, Im registered, now what?
[05:03] <maco> futurama140: the "install" command jsut tells a specific file where it should be copied to and with what permissions. it doesnt run some installer thats built into some other program
[05:04] <Izinucs> Boyyd: wrong channel.. #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:04] <Boyyd> my bad
[05:04] <Boyyd> :(
[05:04] <lilzeus-web> it works!
[05:04] <Dravekx> how do I make a group?
[05:04] <maco> scott_ino2: rpm packaging has been a part of 2 of my jobs so far
[05:04] <futurama140> maco: ah, ok. thanks. that actually makes sense.
[05:04] <Dravekx> addgroup?
[05:05] <rumpsy> useradd

[05:05] <tahta> hi I need some help. How to remastering ubuntu?
[05:05] <scott_ino2> maco, i kinda miss using rpms
[05:05] <scott_ino2> sometimes
[05:06] <lilzeus-web> lets see if anyone is alive in #httpd
[05:06] <rumpsy> tahta: you have to learn about ubuntu then
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> maco:  yea. i recall it dosent do what people seem to think it 'does' :)
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> maco:  ive just never seen what actually does use it.
[05:07] <lilzeus-web> so, is anyone else using apache?
[05:07] <lilzeus-web> lol
[05:07] <Dr_Willis> lilzeus-web:  lots of people do.
[05:07] <rumpsy> lilzeus-web: yes i am
[05:07] <lilzeus-web> or better yet, phpbb
[05:07] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: ask a question
[05:08] <futurama140> maco: when i try to install the game it says no application suitable for automatic install
[05:08] <tahta> what kind of application that I can use to remaster my ubuntu?
[05:08] <Dr_Willis> !remaster
[05:08] <maco> futurama140: i dont know what that means. ive never used this game
[05:08] <tc111> my served up pxe / netbooting livecds (looped) worked prior to upgrading to karmic, now none of them do. here's my config, what's wrong with my server config: http://paste.ubuntu.com/365130/
[05:09] <lilzeus-web> can anyone help me track down why websites are not working?
[05:09] <futurama140> maco: its not just the game, its ANY program i try to install i get that message
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  you download the installer then you should run teh installer.  chmod +x RegnumWhatever    then ./RegnumWhatever
[05:09] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  its going to be another 10 min download here... :)
[05:10] <maco> futurama140: how are you normally trying to install stuff?
[05:10] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: so you made a site (html? .. Joomla?.. wordpress?)  ?
[05:10] <lilzeus-web> that is in the form of a question
[05:10] <maco> futurama140: applications -> software center is giving you that error?
[05:10] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: where did you put the files?
[05:10] <futurama140> Dr_Willis: i have the installed. i downloaded it earlier today. 700mb. it wont install.
[05:10] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: yep, I have a couple websites...simple html
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  and if you RUN it from a terminal what does it say>
[05:10] <Dr_Willis> grr.. 18min download now.. :)
[05:12] <bob_> Still having trouble. I am trying to run a grafical program as root. I tried gksudo then the program name in Terminal, it thinks about it a moment then show command prompt?
[05:12] <futurama140> Dr_Willis: neither RUN nor run are found commands.
[05:12] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: where did you put the files?
[05:12] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  you are confuseing things...
[05:12] <lilzeus-web> Public folder
[05:12] <lilzeus-web> my sites USED to work
[05:12] <futurama140> maco: i see nothing in the application menu that says "software center"
[05:13] <Dr_Willis> futurama140: Hhow did you run the installer? --> somthing like? -->   chmod +x RegnumWhatever    then ./RegnumWhatever
[05:13] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: can you be more specific.. /home/<user>/Public folder?  or /var/www
[05:13] <maco> futurama140: what about "add/remove" if you're on an older version of ubuntu?
[05:13] <tucemiux> futurama140, youre using a netbook?
[05:13] <futurama140> maco: im running 9.10. and it does have the add/remove.
[05:13] <futurama140> tucemiux: no
[05:13] <maco> oh well thats a little odd
[05:14] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: home/<user>/Public
[05:14] <Harold_parker> Out_Cold are you still around mate?
[05:14] <Dr_Willis> 9.10 has Ubuntu software center - instead of the add/remove icon now. :)
[05:14] <maco> ok so you say everything you try to install gives you an error. and thats with using add/remove? or you're installing some other way?
[05:14] <lilzeus-web> or rather home/<user>/Public/htdocs
[05:14] <Out_Cold> Harold_parker, half n half
[05:14] <maco> Dr_Willis: apparently not on futurama140's machine O_o
[05:14] <Harold_parker> Out_Cold if you have a sec would you mind checking this paste, that problem is still driving me mental:
[05:14] <Harold_parker> http://pastebin.com/d378788a2
[05:14] <Harold_parker> thanks :)
[05:15] <futurama140> maco: add/remove shows no prgoram with the name of the game when i search for it in the search box.
[05:15] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: put one site in /var/www and the other in /var/www/<name>/ .. then to access http://localhost
[05:15] <Linux-CLI> Greetings
[05:15] <Linux-CLI> Does anyone here use DebrisLinux?
[05:15] <lilzeus-web> localhost says It Works!
[05:15] <lilzeus-web> :)
[05:15] <maco> futurama140: ok but you said *everything* you try to isntall fails. im asking about the subset of "everything" that does not include that game
[05:16] <Elzo_Brito> e ae galera
[05:16] <futurama140> maco: ive tried double clicking the installer, and i have no idea what the commands are to install using terminal, and i like to know what commands in terminal do before i use them...
[05:16] <Out_Cold> Harold_parker, my first try would be to chmod -r it
[05:16] <tucemiux> futurama140, what game youre trying to install?  you might have to edit your sources files and add a gpg key
[05:16] <onetinsoldier> Elzo_Brito: Brazil?
[05:16] <bazhang> futurama140, installer for what
[05:16] <actionparsnip> Yo yo yo
[05:16] <onetinsoldier> !es | Elzo_Brito
[05:17] <maco> futurama140: i dont think we can reasonably tell you teh command to install some software we've never seen before. doenst it have a README?
[05:17] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: are you suggesting I move the entire websites to those folders?
[05:17] <Out_Cold> Harold_parker, if that doesn't work then 777 it.... then see what you can deduce from there
[05:17] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  whats the name of the installer?
[05:17] <maco> futurama140: i mean, how do you expect us to know how some random software you found online works?
[05:17] <futurama140> maco: the add/remove will let me install things. i just cant install using terminal or by double clicking installers.
[05:17] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: that's where apache expects them to be
[05:17] <maco> futurama140: is the installer not a .deb ?
[05:17] <maco> futurama140: because thats the only sort of installer thatd work by double clicking
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> maco:  no its not. :)
[05:18] <futurama140> maco: amarok gives me the same error. i have NO programs associated with the file type used by the installers.
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> maco:  im pretty sure its a sefl installing executable,
[05:18] <maco> Dr_Willis: O_o
[05:18] <Dr_Willis> maco:  4 more min till i have it downloaded.
[05:18] <tucemiux> maco, youre not helping any, it looks like he's trying to install a game that's not in the repos, you could help out by walking him on installing a deb package or adding the repo to his software list
[05:18] <futurama140> file:///home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32
[05:18] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: trying to copy them over...its doing something strange
[05:19] <Harold_parker> Out_Cold, that worked. as far as troubleshooting goes, but is of course not the solution
[05:19] <maco> tucemiux: he claimed *nothing* could be installed. i thought his repositories were broken
[05:19] <Harold_parker> Out_Cold, thanks for looking though :)
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  then from the termial do a 'chmode +x /home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32'
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  then from the termial do a  './home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32'
[05:19] <Linux-CLI> !ubuntu
[05:19] <iflema> Harold_parker sigma tring to mkdir in rdmn's home folder......
[05:19] <maco> futurama140: are you even sure it's linux software?
[05:19] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: it won't let me copy the folders
[05:19] <tucemiux> maco, it doesnt even sound like he knows what he's doing, just ask him what he wants to do, what he wants to install and take it from there
[05:19] <Linux-CLI> !lts
[05:19] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  i sort of said this about 10 min ago.
[05:19] <Linux-CLI> 10.04
[05:19] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: won't let you right? .. you have to use sudo in terminal or gksudo nautilus then drag and drop
[05:19] <futurama140> maco: yes. its specifically for linux and was recomended for ubuntu
[05:20] <Linux-CLI> So it'll be released in April?
[05:20] <futurama140> Dr_Willis explain what "chmode -x" does?
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> Linux-CLI:  yep. Unless its delayed
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  then from the termial do a 'chmode +x /home/futurama140/Downloads/RegnumOnlineInstall_32'
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  makes it executable as i mentiooned earlier
[05:20] <maco> futurama140: it ch = change, mod = mode. it changes the mode to include x. x = executable. thus, it makes the file executable
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  and like the forum threads on the game state
[05:20] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  untill its 'excutable' you cant run it

[05:22] <bazhang> futurama140, checked the link I gave you yet?

[05:27] <tucemiux> Izinucs, i installed guest additions and I can't maximize the window
[05:28] <fwaokda> actionparsnip, i tried top and ps aux but i can't find the pid for my eclipse that is currently running...
[05:28] <futurama140> i meant the command, not the file path, i used my own filepath by dragging and dropping
[05:28] <vadim_> bubuntu
[05:28] <Izinucs> tucemiux: did you restart the guest?
[05:28] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: when I put www.website.com they do not show up
[05:28] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  be sure it dosent add file://whatever to the front
[05:28] <stryker> how can I make the windows turn into fire when I minimize?
[05:28] <vadim_> how connect to another server?
[05:28] <tucemiux> actionparsnip, can you create your own xorg.conf in karmic?
[05:28] <actionparsnip> Fwaokda: weird
[05:28] <vadim_> say command pls
[05:28] <bazhang> stryker, enable in compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:29] <fwaokda> actionparsnip, i tried killall eclipse but that didn't work either...
[05:29] <tucemiux> Izinucs, to no avail, nothing changes, i even restart with kubuntu maximized, the screen size wont maximine
[05:29] <actionparsnip> Tucemiux: sure if its there it will be used. Here's a good sample one: http://www.google.com/m/url?cd=2&channel=gp1&client=ms-android-tmobile-gb&ct=res&ei=ZcNjS6jOJ5iQjAfCu__lAw&og=gp&oi=blended&q=http%3A%2F%2Fubuntuforums.org%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D777759&resnum=2&sa=X&source=gp&uipref=6&ved=0CP___________wEQ____________ATAC&usg=AFQjCNGJBNC1ubaJl_G9DXT6v5zMftscOw
[05:29] <stryker> bazhang: I did enable it, under Animations > Minimize Animation > Burn, but nothing happens
[05:29] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: yep.. because your browser goes out on the web to a DNS server to find that site and it doesn't exist as a valid site.. so it returns an error
[05:29] <actionparsnip> I hate google for that
[05:29] <bazhang> stryker, if you dont get an answer here the folks in #compiz can likely help
[05:29] <tucemiux> actionparsnip, thanks!!!  that will be a good read while I compiled mixxx's latest beta version
[05:29] <zicada> i hate google for the fact that it lists TONS of posts of noobs
[05:29] <Izinucs> tucemiux: in the guest window did you simply "mount the guest additions"? or a menu choice like that?
[05:30] <actionparsnip> Fwaokda: try: ps -ef | less
[05:30] <zicada> who copy/pasts shit
[05:30] <zicada> and fails/does things wrong
[05:30] <zicada> and lists it as a solution to a problem
[05:30] <bazhang> zicada, please watch the language
[05:30] <zicada> and google lists it hight
[05:30] <zicada> bazhang: really ? you cant say shit ?
[05:30] <zicada> ooook they
[05:30] <stryker> bazhang: thanks, i am trying there as well
[05:30] <zicada> then
[05:30] <swapy> hi
[05:30] <bullgard> actionparsnip: I have noticed this Guake feature. But it is not much work to place either guake or tilda in the startup folder, is it not?
[05:30] <bazhang> zicada, no, keep it family friendly thanks
[05:31] <tucemiux> Izinucs, i installed guest additions, mouse pointer integration works fine, the resolution is kinda broken though, kubuntu refuses to maxmine, windows xp works just fine though
[05:31] <zicada> even the FCC allows that word on mid day tv shows
[05:31] <Izinucs> tucemiux: hang on .. let me start mine
[05:31] <actionparsnip> Bullguard: trie but I guess ots convenient if its part of the app. Guess its for lazys
[05:31] <greendude> hi...can I get some help here pls?
[05:31] <bullgard> !language | zicada
[05:31] <greendude> I created a panel in my karmic to which I gave the position top, hoping it would dock below my default top panel
[05:31] <greendude> instead it froze my system, and now completley screwed it up...I only see a black bar on the top now, and I can't connect to the internet, and everything is very slow
[05:31] <zicada> wow
[05:31] <tony32> anyone know how to view dbus output of a window?
[05:31] <actionparsnip> !ask | greendude
[05:32] <zicada> what does that have to do with families anyway
[05:32] <zicada> odd
[05:32] <zicada> an american thing i guess
[05:32] <zicada> .. ANYWAY
[05:32] <blakkheim> !enter | zicada
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> zicada:  let it drop.
[05:32] <zicada> hi
[05:32] <bazhang> zicada, did you have a support question? chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:32] <FloodBot4> zicada: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:32] <swapy> hi guys
[05:32] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: well, its supposed to be a website, not a localhost
[05:32] <greendude> @ubottu....sorry, I'm new here, do I have to use a command?
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> greendude:  ubottu  is a bot. :)
[05:32] <swapy> i changed my resolution to 1920x1080 and my theme got messed up now all themes have same problen
[05:32] <greendude> lol, k, let me start again
[05:32] <Dr_Willis> !bot | greendude
[05:33] <actionparsnip> Greendude: if you log on as another user does it happen?
[05:33] <zicada> uh, its funny how im being flooded by notices telling me not to flood, when im just typing fast
[05:33] <Dr_Willis> zicada:  You are hitting the enter key fast.. thats not the same thing. Stick to the topic.
[05:33] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: you got a lot of reading to do to figure out how this stuff works.. if you want a fully qualified site available from www.<something>.com you have to buy it and point it at a server.. most likely you can't point it to a home server without using something like dydns.com..
[05:33] <eghm> type longer
[05:33] <fwaokda> actionparsnip, that worked thanks
[05:33] <greendude> I recently added a new panel 'above' my already existing top panel....and now all I see there is an empty bar, and a non-functional desktop, any help?
[05:33] <zicada> Dr_Willis: uh, yeah, i know, sorry , wow
[05:33] <zicada> just not used to kindergarten type stuff
[05:34] <goose> K
[05:34] <Dr_Willis> zicada:  and yet you still ramble on about things not on the ubuntu topic
[05:34] <actionparsnip> Zicada: putting 5 words on line in quick succession is neither fast typing and is flooding as you are scolling the channel
[05:34] <zicada> greendude: rightclick it and pick remove
[05:34] <swapy> can we play nfs carbon in ubuntu linux ?????? how plz tell me
[05:34] <actionparsnip> Fwaokda: no worries duder
[05:34] <swapy> can we play nfs carbon in ubuntu linux ?????? how plz tell me
[05:34] <fwaokda> im trying to add a desktop shortcut but it wont show up... however if I tell it to create a shortcut on the panel and then try to move that one to the desktop it tells me one already exists... anyone know how i can fix this???
[05:34] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: I have had these sites up for years
[05:34] <Dr_Willis> I got RegnumOnline Working - who was it having problems? i lost track
[05:34] <Lunis_> is there a way to log off in gnome from the command line?
[05:34] <swapy> can we play nfs carbon in ubuntu linux ?????? how plz tell me
[05:34] <greendude> zicada: can't right click unfortunately..I tired that. In fact even my internet is non-functional
[05:34] <lilzeus-web> they only recently stopped working
[05:35] <Dr_Willis> !appdb | swapy
[05:35] <actionparsnip> !appdb | swapy
[05:35] <zicada> greendude: youre on irc though, so its functioning a little bit at least heh
[05:35] <Izinucs> tucemiux: try "host g" a couple of times or host a .. if you want full screen host f .. one push of each combo will go back to the previous combo with the same combo.
[05:35] <zicada> greendude: what your connection has to do with the panel i have no idea, but are you saying rightclick doesnt work at all ?
[05:35] <greendude> zicada: I got in the guest account through a lot of work...my main account is still non functional
[05:35] <actionparsnip> Greendude: press alt+f2 and run nautilus
[05:35] <soreau> fwaokda: Look in $HOME/Desktop directory
[05:36] <zicada> greendude: boot into single
[05:36] <tucemiux> Izinucs, does it work fine on your machine?  Kubuntu was playing nice as a guest OS but then I installed the updates and the screen would no longer change resolution, I had to install guest additions because it was very difficult to use the virtual machine, the resolution was too big and I had to scroll down to get to the menu
[05:36] <zicada> and drop a rootshell
[05:36] <actionparsnip> Greendude: nautilus draws some of the desktop so may help
[05:36] <vadim_> omg this is bubuntu :E
[05:36] <greendude> zicada: that's right...right clicks do nothing on that panel now....I hit alt+ctrl+tab to switch panels, and that one shows up underneath, but still non-clickable, and auto reverts
[05:36] <lilzeus-web> Izinucs: I own the domains, I have dns pointing to my server here, I set up the virtual hosts...everything
[05:36] <tucemiux> Izinucs, you mean control g?
[05:36] <ezrafree> after startin gfirefox in safe mode, with all my add-ons disabled, i still cannot open a downloaded file when clicking on it.. any ideas?
[05:36] <actionparsnip> Vadim_: bubuntu?
[05:36] <Izinucs> tucemiux: ah.. what happened is you probably got a new kernel.. when that happens you have to reinstall the guest additions..
[05:36] <greendude> actionparsnip: alt+f2 doesn't work either....I can go to a terminal though
[05:36] <fwaokda> soreau, they dont show in there either
[05:36] <ezrafree> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/firefox-3.5/+bug/452591 <-- this seems to be the bug i'm experiencing
[05:36] <Izinucs> tucemiux: "right" control g
[05:36] <vadim_> eyp , russian say only bubuntu for fun
[05:37] <ezrafree> but after trying the advice on that URL i still cannot fix it... any ideas?
[05:37] <actionparsnip> Greendude: try launching nautilius from. Terminal
[05:37] <Izinucs> tucemiux: left doesn't do anything
[05:37] <zicada> greendude: what was the last thing you did before that happened tho mate
[05:37] <greendude> actionparsnip: would that be as sudo? and also what what would that do out of curiosity?
[05:37] <actionparsnip> Ezrafree: remove then reinstall firefox
[05:37] <Izinucs> lilzeus-web: sorry.. I've reached the end of my expertise..
[05:37] <soreau> fwaokda: ls -a $HOME/Desktop
[05:38] <swapy> what is appdb? btw i have wine installed yet not tried to play with it
[05:38] <greendude> zicada: I added a new panel hoping it would dock below my default top panel, then things froze, then I rebooted, and now I'm here
[05:38] <soreau> fwaokda: Should list hidden files and folders too
[05:38] <swapy> any settings required for wine to play nfs carbon...... ??????
[05:38] <bazhang> http://appdb.winehq.org swapy
[05:38] <actionparsnip> Greendude: no run it without so it uses your settings for your desktop
[05:38] <bazhang> swapy, also check #winehq
[05:38] <swapy> thanks ill try
[05:39] <actionparsnip> Greendude: it should start nautilus which manages desktop icons and (I think) wallpaper
[05:39] <iWolf> actionparsnip!
[05:39] <iWolf> Brad ¤ iMonkey ¤ Mike
[05:39] <iWolf> Ghost ¤ Towlie
[05:39] <zicada> actionparsnip: start with rightclicking not working mate
[05:39] <fwaokda> soreau, ok I see the shortcuts listed... but they do not show up on my desktop as icons...
[05:39] <iWolf> Oh jeez
[05:39] <greendude> actionparsnip: k, let me give that a shot, though nautilus is running already like I mentioned...I can even access a terminal and all apps
[05:39] <iWolf> Wrong tab!
[05:39] <FloodBot4> iWolf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:39] <zicada> that seems a pretty hairy issue heh
[05:39] <actionparsnip> Swapy: its a list of what will and will not work with wine
[05:39] <swapy> 1 more help how to join a channel like i want to join channel of linux mint but i dont get how to do it
[05:39] <iWolf> If used all the instructions listed on this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes - But nothing worked
[05:39] <rww> swapy: which IRC client are you using?
[05:39] <greendude> actionparsnip: it's just that my top panel is stuck, and internet won't work, and things are very slow
[05:39] <swapy> actionparsnip, ohh thanks man i will see it
[05:39] <iWolf> (for Wireless)
[05:40] <swapy> rww i am using xchat irc
[05:40] <tucemiux> Izinucs, youre a genius!!!!!!!!  Thanks!!!!  control-G did it!  control-A just made the VBox window smaller so that it was the same size as the virtual machine, pressing control F then control G sets the resolution to use my entire LCD
[05:40] <soreau> fwaokda: Do they start with a period?
[05:40] <actionparsnip> Swapy: if you'd clicked ubottu's link you would have seen what it was instead of asking
[05:40] <Izinucs> tucemiux: cool..
[05:40] <fwaokda> no they're listed like so...  "eclipse.desktop"
[05:40] <swapy> #linuxmint.com
[05:40] <Out_Cold> iWolf, what eeepc?
[05:40] <ezrafree> actionparsnip: thanks giving it a try now
[05:40] <zicada> swapy: hehe
[05:40] <iWolf> Out_Cold
[05:41] <tucemiux> Izinucs, can you give me a brief synopsis on how to use a shared folder on kubuntu?
[05:41] <iWolf> 900
[05:41] <swapy> what for linux mint
[05:41] <ezrafree> strange that there's no "reinstall" or "upgrade" options in software center
[05:41] <iWolf> Celeron M, works fine with UNR 9.10
[05:41] <ouyes_> Out_Cold, netbook asua
[05:41] <zicada> swapy: i love how youre asking in the ubuntu chan aout that
[05:41] <zicada> fantastic
[05:41] <Out_Cold> iWolf, with unr?
[05:41] <bazhang> !mintsupport | swapy
[05:41] <iWolf> Yes
[05:41] <rww> swapy: press ctrl-t to get a new server tab, then type /connect irc.spotchat.org, then type /join #linuxmint-help in it when it gets done connecting
[05:41] <tucemiux> ezrafree, once I have the software installed I just use synaptic to do that kind of stuff
[05:41] <greendude> actionparsnip:, zicada: brb...thanks for your help..going to try to restart nautilus and see what happens
[05:41] <actionparsnip> Swapy: its an unofficial ubuntu based OS. Its not supported here
[05:41] <Izinucs> tucemiux: that's kinda a pain.. what's the host? windows or linux?
[05:41] <iWolf[Away]> Out_Cold
[05:41] <iWolf[Away]> If you have the answer
[05:41] <iWolf[Away]> Please PM me
[05:41] <rww> swapy: sorry, /server, not /connect
[05:41] <Out_Cold> iWolf[Away], maybe file a bug...
[05:41] <tucemiux> Izinucs, ubuntu is the host, kubuntu is the guest
[05:42] <ezrafree> tucemiux: okay, thanks for the advice
[05:42] <tucemiux> Izinucs, I already have the share configured
[05:42] <zicada> while im here, any way of rolling back the ati propritery drivers if not installing from debs ?
[05:42] <jake_> does anyone know how to get a ironkey flash drive to work in ubuntu
[05:42] <ezrafree> so i've removed, and then reinstalled, firefox... on 3.5.7 now... and yet still the same problem. any other ideas?
[05:42] <tucemiux> Izinucs, I already have the share configured on the virtual machine settings but how does the networking part work in kubuntu/ubuntu?
[05:42] <actionparsnip> Tucemiux: weird use of vbox. Keeping them pure?
[05:42] <Izinucs> tucemiux: in kubuntu?
[05:43] <swapy> ok guys let me see
[05:43] <tucemiux> Izinucs, yes, kubuntu is the guest, my files are on my ubuntu machine
[05:43] <actionparsnip> Zicada: you can force the drive in xorg.conf or uninstall the proprietary driver
[05:43] <greendude> actionparsnip: well all it did was start a nautilus window, but my panel problem remains...
[05:43] <actionparsnip> Greendude: gah
[05:43] <zicada> actionparsnip: yeah i mean like, remove all the libs
[05:43] <zicada> the drm stuff etc
[05:43] <ce_wek> hy
[05:43] <ezrafree> nm, i've fixed it now (had to remove my profile entirely)
[05:43] <L3dPlatedLinux> on gadmin-oproftpd 530 login incorrect on the virtual user I made its like it doesnt see them at all but it does see me  and well the only diff is i have a account on the machine. so I dont know how to make it see the virtual users
[05:43] <greendude> actionparsnip: do you know any command or tool through which I can remove the new panel that I added?
[05:44] <zicada> lots of apps will likely depend on the ati libs after doing so
[05:44] <tucemiux> actionparsnip, not really, i use ubuntu mainly, i'm just trying out kubuntu, im also going to use kubuntu as a testing platform for appz
[05:44] <zicada> flash etc
[05:44] <Izinucs> tucemiux: in ubuntu you can point at folder and right mouse click>properties>share .. pretty much the same on kubuntu.. when going from one to the other you'll have to log in the share service when you try to access it
[05:44] <actionparsnip> Zicada: ps -ef | grep frglx and remove the package (if I spelled it wrong then correct it)
[05:44] <jake_> does anyone know how an ironkey flash drive would work with linux
[05:45] <zicada> actionparsnip: hehe im stoked youre trying to help
[05:45] <actionparsnip> Tucemiux: you can have kde and gnome on one system you know and log off then back in to change desktop..
[05:45] <zicada> actionparsnip: im not trying to rmmod the module tho, im trying to get rid of the files
[05:45] <tucemiux> Izinucs, excellent!  Thanks!  I'm going to close this window now, im draining all my laptop's juice, im going virtual, be back in a few
[05:45] <zicada> in some kinda fasion thats easier than deleting all the files manually
[05:45] <zicada> yu know ?
[05:45] <Bauer17> quick question on new install. Build a new box for file server.  Have a drive dedicated for ubuntu install and 2 other drives that I have with a raid 1 connection setup through motherboard.  How do I get the raid to work in ubuntu without creating a software raid array? Thanks!
[05:45] <Out_Cold> jake_, ironkey is the encryption used??
[05:45] <jake_> yes
[05:46] <Out_Cold> may not be supported??
[05:46] <Thoven78> greendude: right click on the new panel you added and select Delete this panel
[05:46] <jake_> could i use wine to get it to work
[05:46] <zicada> Bauer17: what raidcontroller
[05:46] <zicada> ?
[05:46] <actionparsnip> Zicada: if you use sudo apt-get --purge remove packagenameheredude then it will remove the fluff
[05:46] <tucemiux> actionparsnip, ummm... that kinda stuff works only in writing, the real world is a little different, do you know if kubuntu plays nice with a real time kernel in ubuntu studio?  I dont want to be the first one to find out
[05:46] <greendude> Thoven78: unfortunately I can't interact with the panel...right click or single click, nothing works
[05:46] <zicada> actionparsnip: yeah but .. it wasnt through debs
[05:46] <zicada> actionparsnip: just the installer
[05:46] <Out_Cold> jake_, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885167
[05:46] <zicada> actionparsnip: im 99% sure its not possible
[05:47] <Thoven78> where is the new panel you created locate?
[05:47] <Out_Cold> if that doesn't work, check back
[05:47] <actionparsnip> Zicada: I believe the installer installs a deb. You could redownload the installer and see if it has an uninstall option
[05:47] <Bauer17> on a Intel motherboard using the Intel Rapid Recovery Technology
[05:48] <Bauer17> built into the board
[05:48] <zicada> actionparsnip: i didnt build debs cause it failed horribly
[05:48] <zicada> Bauer17: should pretty much autodetect it
[05:48] <zicada> Bauer17: any actual issue, or just checking beforehand ?
[05:48] <actionparsnip> Tucemiux: not something I've used dude. Can't see why not but what you have is working so I wouldn't try to fix it ;)
[05:49] <Bauer17> it looks like they are detected, but do I need to do a format on them to get them going... not able to access them, I do have a screenshot if that helps
[05:49] <zicada> Bauer17: well, what fs is the array formatted in now ?
[05:49] <swapy> guys i have currently updated my ubuntu ultimate edition linux  now i want to backup all updates and what programs i have installed but how can i do it
[05:50] <actionparsnip> Bauer17: tried: gksudo gparted
[05:50] <actionparsnip> !ultimate | swapy
[05:50] <swapy> !ultimate
[05:50] <zicada> actionparsnip: hehe he doesnt want to lose the data on it i bet
[05:50] <zicada> :)
[05:50] <Bauer17> how would I check? zicada
[05:50] <iWolf> I
[05:50] <actionparsnip> Zicada: its not supported here
[05:50] <iWolf> am back
[05:50] <zicada> Bauer17: well did you use it in, say, windows before now ?
[05:50] <Bauer17> no they are brand new
[05:51] <zicada> well then you need to format
[05:51] <swapy> confused :(  i dont want to install same updates again via internet so want to backup these updates for next time fresh install how can i do it????
[05:51] <Dr_Willis> !aptoncd
[05:51] <Bauer17> how would i go through that process with ubuntu... sorry this is a brand new os for me
[05:51] <actionparsnip> Swapy: your OS isn't supported in this channel
[05:51] <zicada> Bauer17: mkfs.ext4 /dev/whateveritscalled
[05:51] <Izinucs> swapy: if you're going to do a fresh install don't bother backing up the updates.. not necessary
[05:52] <iWolf> May Be Away, Or Here
[05:52] <Bauer17> is there a way to do it through the gui?
[05:52] <zicada> Bauer17: then you need to mount it, and add entry to /etc/fstab so it gets automounted each time you boot
[05:52] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  backup /var/cache/apt    if you wanted to
[05:52] <IdleOne> !away > iWolf
[05:52] <swapy> thanks dr :(
[05:52] <swapy> ilthanks dr :)
[05:52] <Izinucs> actionparsnip: was he s w a p y talking about something other than linux?  missed the first part
[05:53] <iWolf> IdleOne: I would not use away, because I am not away yet
[05:53] <zicada> actionparsnip: you havent said one useful thing since i got here to anyone, its pretty counterproductive. I mean no offence, but isnt this chan supposed to be support ?
[05:53] <iWolf> Just alerting you I may be away at some points
[05:53] <actionparsnip> Izinucs: s/he is using ultimate linux which isn't supported here
[05:53] <jake_> thanks Out_Cold
[05:53] <Izinucs> actionparsnip: ah.. didn't know what distro..
[05:53] <Out_Cold> jake_, solved?
[05:53] <mikeymoo> hi all
[05:53] <IdleOne> iWolf: ok well in a channel with 1200+ users it is not necessary for you to announce you might not be here
[05:53] <actionparsnip> Iziucs: np
[05:53] <zicada> actionparsnip: either not supported or random gibberish that has very little to do with the problems people are having
[05:53] <jake_> yes for now
[05:53] <mikeymoo> how can i test checksum of an iso
[05:53] <zicada> actionparsnip: are you sure youre really cut out for this ?
[05:54] <Dr_Willis> !md5 | mikeymoo
[05:54] <actionparsnip> Zicada: your opinon.
[05:54] <swapy> an d1 more question i dont understand if i want to open a file after i download it via firefox       how to do it  by default it says it opens torrent via miro       but when i try to change it to transmission how to do      it tells me to browse path and i dont know where it is located
[05:54] <zicada> uh yeah, its my opinion
[05:54] <actionparsnip> Zicada: exactly
[05:54] <Out_Cold> goodnight all
[05:55] <actionparsnip> Swapy: /usr/bin/transmission
[05:55] <iWolf> !dualboot
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> swapy:   try the 'which PROGRAMNAME' command to see where its at.. or perhaps set teh default app for .torrent files in teh gnome file manager
[05:55] <actionparsnip> Swapy: you can get the path of any app if you use: which appnamehere
[05:55] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  ive been testing out qTorrent lately. :)
[05:56] <swapy> actionparsnip, didnt get you
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> oop i mean 'qBitTorrent'
[05:56] <swapy> qtorrent ? does  it have a  gui?
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  use 'which transmission'
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  yes.
[05:56] <Dr_Willis> Most torrent apps have a gui. :) i can think of a few cli based ones
[05:56] <LinuxPhreak> I'm trying to change the sound the plays when I logout of Ubuntu. But I have 2 problems. I don't know what it is called and I don't know if it has to be a certain length. I do however know the location of it. Can some help me with this
[05:56] <swapy> ok i will type which transmission when it tells me to browse ? am i right?
[05:57] <actionparsnip> Swapy: the command 'which' will tell you what actual file will be ran if you type a command
[05:57] <ECKTI> hello i need some help installing some graphics drivers on Ubuntu. Anybody wanna help me out?
[05:57] <blood_> test
[05:57] <Izinucs> ECKTI: what drivers
[05:57] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  that will show the path to point the browser at.
[05:57] <ECKTI> I have an ATI Radeon 9250 and I downloaded the drivers
[05:57] <swapy> let me try what you said
[05:57] <actionparsnip> Swapy: so if you want the path to a file you can use which to tell you
[05:57] <ECKTI> they are saved in my downloads but i dont know how to install them
[05:57] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  i justy set the default file type for .torrents to be whatever torrent app i want. and i think thats what firefox defaults to
[05:58] <ECKTI> These are the directions I have to install ::: To install the ATI Proprietary Linux driver using the Automatic option, follow these steps:
[05:58] <ECKTI>    1. Launch the Terminal Application/Window and navigate to the ATI Proprietary Linux driver download.
[05:58] <ECKTI>    2. Enter the command sh ./ati-driver-installer-8.28.8.run to launch the ATI Proprietary Linux driver installer. The ATI Proprietary Linux Driver Setup dialog box is displayed.
[05:58] <FloodBot4> ECKTI: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:58] <ECKTI> what u mean? what diod i do
[05:58] <Izinucs> ECKTI: check their site.. if they say that the driver are not compatible with xorg 7.XX then they won't work anyway.. actually check if your card is supported in the current linux driver or if the mention an older driver.. if it's older then it won't work
[05:58] <actionparsnip> Dr_Willis: I think firefox has its own helper apps which you set
[05:58] <zicada> ECKTI: open up a command prompt, cd Downloads; chmod +x ati*; sh ati* --buildpkg Ubuntu/karmic ; sudo dpkg -i *.deb ; done
[05:58] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  many torrent apps have a setting to 'auto load from' specific directroies also. You can set that up where you just save the .torrent files to thazt location and they will auto start them
[05:58] <zicada> ECKTI: inform me if you get any errors
[05:58] <swapy> i am asking for any program or app many a times i require to browse    as for eg in windows i did by going in program files same what is in ubuntu ..??
[05:59] <ECKTI> zicada,  should i enter everything u said in the above comment starting with cd Downloads?
[05:59] <actionparsnip> Swapy: it will usually be in /usr/bin
[05:59] <zicada> ECKTI: yeah
[05:59] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  linux binaries can be in different locations.   they dont all get tossed in a 'program files' place.
[05:59] <zicada> then type in your pass when asked for it
[05:59] <onetinsoldier> ECKTI: with that old of a card, you might just be better off sticking with the built-in open source drivers that come with Ubuntu
[06:00] <swapy> Dr_Willis, ya i have that idea that ubuntu dosent have program files
[06:00] <swapy> one more question
[06:00] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  windows dosent actually keep everything in 'program files' either. :)
[06:00] <actionparsnip> Swapy: the linux filesystem is a little more complicated as libs for one app can be used in many
[06:00] <swapy> i want to defragment my ntfs drives in linux which porgram will help
[06:01] <mikeymoo> hi i am in live cd mode i cant cd to my flash drive labled /media/MIKES FLASH
[06:01] <swapy> actionparsnip, your answers surely motivate all to use linux      now i am getting many problems solved
[06:01] <ECKTI> the thing is i want to use one of the outputs for my TV and use it as dual monitors
[06:01] <ECKTI> as I was doing when I had windows running
[06:01] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  its best to do things like that with windows tools from windows
[06:01] <xamctep> hi ppls
[06:01] <ECKTI> zicada it returned an error
[06:01] <ECKTI> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `done'
[06:01] <Izinucs> mikeymoo: linux does't like names with spaces.. so you have to "cd /media/MIK<tab> " to get the right syntax
[06:01] <zicada> heh, sorry
[06:02] <actionparsnip> Swapy: np man, makes the world go around
[06:02] <zicada> ECKTI: cut off the ;done
[06:02] <zicada> part
[06:02] <zicada> im too used to using for
[06:02] <mikeymoo> thanks iz
[06:02] <LinuxPhreak> can someone help me with my problem
[06:02] <ECKTI> now it says Cant open ati*--buildpkg
[06:03] <swapy> yahoo     !!    /usr/bin worked :) thanks  now i can set path
[06:03] <actionparsnip> Swapy: may help. Personally i'd do it under windows as ntfs is proprietary and you may break stuff: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-407230.html
[06:03] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  Under firefox here.. it has a list of all my torrent clients in the open with ... pull down item on the downloads dialog. :)
[06:04] <actionparsnip> Linuxphreak: wassup?
[06:04] <swapy> actionparsnip, actually ntfs drives were created for windows yet to optimize them i dont know will defragment work in linux     yet i know there is no need for ext4 fs to defrag
[06:04] <LinuxPhreak> I've changed the login sound for Ubuntu but I'm having trouble changing the Logout sound
[06:05] <LinuxPhreak> I don't know the name of the file
[06:05] <swapy> Dr_Willis,  is there any more view in ubuntu   only 3 views available          compact list and tree       not much impressive :(
[06:05] <LinuxPhreak> does it have to be a certain length or is there no limitation on the length
[06:05] <zicada> swapy: there's no such thing as defrag in windows
[06:05] <zicada> swapy: err, on linux
[06:06] <actionparsnip> Swapy: personally I wouldn't defrag ntfs in linux. You could make a bartpe cd using an xp cd to make a live windows os and defrag there. or use your windows install if you dual boot
[06:06] <zicada> jees, its late
[06:06] <reves> how do i bring back a desktop panel in gnome when ive removed them all by accident?
[06:06] <reves> i can only right click
[06:06] <actionparsnip> Zicada: you can defrag ext2
[06:06] <rdunnion> hi all this may be off topic but i need help with openoffice, any takers?
[06:06] <swapy> actionparsnip, ok i will not defragment if it isnt required :)
[06:06] <fwaokda> I'm trying to follow this guide for aerosnap feature but it doesn't work after I've completed everything... I drag to the edge and nothing happens... http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2009/11/aero-snap-ubuntu-linux.html   ?????
[06:06] <actionparsnip> Zicada: its pretty pointless but you can
[06:06] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  i dont klnwo what you are refering to..    if you mean file manager stuff,,theres dozens of other file managers you can use.
[06:06] <swapy> actionparsnip, is there any more powerful file manager      as nautilus has only three views icon compact and list view
[06:06] <zicada> actionparsnip: who uses ext2 lately tho hehe
[06:07] <swapy> Dr_Willis, yes your are right
[06:07] <actionparsnip> Zicada: people with SSD HDDs to reduce wear
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  more views do not make a more 'powerfull' file manager
[06:07] <swapy> lol i found virus scanner in linux howcome?? linux dosent have viruses
[06:07] <zicada> hehe
[06:07] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  it scans windows files
[06:08] <zicada> is swapy trolling or am i paranoid
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  think about it.....
[06:08] <zicada> mostly used for scanning email mate
[06:08] <swapy> Dr_Willis, i mean with more views the 3 views werent so good so i asked
[06:08] <actionparsnip> Swapy: its good for mail servers and samba file servers to protect users whom upload files with virus'
[06:08] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  i always use list view.. so its not really somtjing i care about.
[06:08] <zicada> mostly a server thing
[06:09] <Dr_Willis> swapy: theres work in the next gnome to add more purty previews and stuff..
[06:09] <swapy> ok what program you use  as desktop search engine    i am indexing via google desktop which is v v slow :( any suggestions
[06:09] <zicada> spam filters tend to drop any attachment that could be a windows virus tho lately
[06:10] <actionparsnip> Swapy: do you search a lot?
[06:10] <swapy> yes
[06:10] <actionparsnip> Swapy: I see. I suggest you organise your files better then you won't need to search ever :)
[06:10] <zicada> tidy up your files and know where stuff is ?
[06:10] <zicada> haha yeah
[06:10] <swapy> http://www.voidtools.com/        fastest indexing software in world perhaps  but in windows only :(
[06:11] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  i rarely need to search my desktop. I know where i put thingws.
[06:11] <actionparsnip> Swapy: I use find at cli if I gotta search though
[06:11] <ECKTI> How come when I try installing software from th Ubuntu software center i click on install and nothing happens?
[06:11] <zicada> swapy: what you want to do is try to get used to terminals
[06:11] <swapy> Dr_Willis, i am not used to linux so require to search for files often
[06:11] <actionparsnip> Eckti: run it with: gksudo software-center
[06:11] <zicada> swapy: its been shown to be alot faster and easier for file management than a UI
[06:12] <rdunnion> openoffice help, anyone?
[06:12] <ECKTI> when do i find that?
[06:12] <Dr_Willis> swapy:   it pays to get organized. :)
[06:12] <actionparsnip> Eckti: press alt+f2 and type it
[06:12] <zicada> ECKTI: now that, is a hard question
[06:12] <ECKTI> thanks
[06:12] <actionparsnip> !ask | rdunnion
[06:12] <swapy> ok which will b better beagle google desktop or ....... whatever you say plz suggest :(
[06:13] <futurama140> hey am i able to copy a bunch of pictures to my /usr/share/backgrounds folder? it tells me permission is denied, and it wont let me change permissions. im not sure what the commands are for terminal
[06:13] <actionparsnip> Swapy: you will get a 50/50 split. Try both and see which you prefer
[06:13] <wolter> swapy, Places > Search for files... works right
[06:13] <actionparsnip> Futurama40: use: gksudo nautilus
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  its best to not copy things over to system directroies like that. Keep your user files in the users home
[06:13] <futurama140> actionparsnip: thanks!
[06:13] <actionparsnip> Futurama40: you can now copy because as a user you only have read access to the folder
[06:13] <swapy> wolter, i want to index files dude not search specific folder
[06:13] <Dr_Willis> futurama140:  theres no real need to put them there.
[06:13] <wolter> swapy, oh ok
[06:14] <wolter> swapy, well, then i wouldn't know :s
[06:14] <ECKTI> see I type it in but nothing comes up
[06:14] <ECKTI> whats up with that
[06:14] <zicada> futurama140: keep all data local to your homedir, they generally take prescedence over system files
[06:14] <actionparsnip> Eckti: did you close the first one?
[06:14] <lilzeus-web> could anyone help me get my apache websites working again?
[06:14] <ECKTI> yea
[06:14] <swapy> wolter, still thanks for reply :)
[06:14]  * Dr_Willis has 8+GB of wallpapers in his /home/willis/wallpaper dir
[06:14] <zicada> Dr_Willis: why ? :D
[06:14] <rdunnion> ok....my resume in doc format doesn't look the same in word as it does in OO. I would like to use OO exclusively but the people who are reading my resume more often than not will be using word.i need to make sure it appears correctly in word if i edit in OO. How can I do this?
[06:14] <actionparsnip> Eckti: ok run it in a terminal. Is there an error message output
[06:15] <wolter> swapy, i would bet that beagle does the job right, but wouldn't know with certainty
[06:15] <ECKTI> let me try it hold on
[06:15]  * actionparsnip doesn't use wallpaper
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> zicada:  its about a 7+ yr collection over the years
[06:15] <Carci> I've got a really noobish question... but I can't find the answer to it anywhere online. Uh, how do I set my Ubuntu 9.10 install to mount a particular partition (/dev/sda5 in my case) upon booting?
[06:15] <zicada> Dr_Willis: hehe ok
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> Carci:  put a proper entry in /etc/fstab
[06:15] <rahduke> Just installed fresh copy of 9.10 on a new htpc.... for some reason it can't see my homenetwork.... I have smb installed. Can someone help me out. Getting "Failed to retrieve share list from server" error
[06:15] <actionparsnip> !fstab | carci
[06:15] <Dr_Willis> !mount | Carci
[06:15] <djhui> who can speak chinese
[06:15] <rahduke> Unable to mount location
[06:15] <zicada> some people collect porn, others, collect.. wallpapers, for almost a decade
[06:15]  * Carci facepalms. "fstab, of course"
[06:15] <zicada> :)
[06:15] <IdleOne> !cn | djhui
[06:15] <ECKTI> actionparsnip: im in. thanks man
[06:16] <actionparsnip> Hehe np carci.
[06:16] <ECKTI> whats the difference
[06:16] <Carci> The sad thing is...
[06:16] <wolter> ECKTI, with gksudo/gksu/sudo you have admin rights
[06:16] <Carci> I've USED fstab before. >.<
[06:16] <actionparsnip> Eckti: cool, nothing should be different. Bring up alt+f2 again and check spelling etc. Weird
[06:16] <wolter> and you can do whatever you want to your system, including destroying it
[06:17] <actionparsnip> Carci: d'oh
[06:17] <zicada> Carci: ha facepalm
[06:17] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  in the past ive had to enter the smb://ip#/sharename befor.. for some odd reason to get things to be seen
[06:17] <swapy> guys help trying to install beagle  software manager says waiting for other sofware managers to quit
[06:17] <actionparsnip> Swapy: do you have software-center open?
[06:18] <swapy> yes
[06:18] <Carci> Woah. mod4+e does weeird thing with the workspaces. I wonder if I set that before myself or if it's a default action...
[06:18] <swapy> i am installing from it beagle
[06:18] <actionparsnip> Really have to force the US spelling for centre
[06:18] <zicada> Carci: i bet you dropped crumbs in your kb so one key is stuck
[06:18] <zicada> :)
[06:19] <rahduke> Dr_Willis: got this error Error: Failed to mount Windows share
[06:19] <rahduke> Please select another viewer and try again.
[06:19] <rahduke> Could not display "smb://<IP_ADDRESS>/rahduke-desktop/".
[06:19] <rahduke> no idea what that is
[06:19] <Carci> zicada: not at all. Accidentally hit that trying to do mod4+w, which I've got set to open firefox.
[06:19] <swapy> guys help trying to install beagle  software manager says waiting for other sofware managers to quit          :((
[06:19] <actionparsnip> Swapy: you can't have any other app touching the packages as it will lock them. Stuff like autoupdates will do this
[06:19] <remyo_> How do you cp files from one directory into multiple other directories?
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  i always fall back tot eh command line to mount some shares.. the gnome file manager is a little weird at times
[06:19] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  are you SURE thats a proper share name?
[06:19] <swapy> dont know why its happening maybe restart reqiured
[06:20] <zicada> remyo_: well
[06:20] <rahduke> Dr_Willis: yup...
[06:20] <zicada> remyo_: how many dirs ?
[06:20] <IdleOne> swapy: do you have Synaptic open?
[06:20] <actionparsnip> swapy: if one isn't running then I suggest a reboot
[06:20] <remyo_> zicada: Like 4 or 5
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  check with the 'smbtree' and 'findsmb' commands
[06:20] <rahduke> i think its a problem on where its mounting the shares... how can i change that
[06:20] <swapy> ok rebooting :)
[06:20] <IdleOne> yeah, rebooting will fix it. always works in windows
[06:20] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  nautilus mounts them automacally under the .gvfs stuff.. i doub tif its the issue
[06:21] <rigodeni> hey guys, ubuntu failed to load properly last time, and now since i booted in my screen resolution is like its in safe mode, how do i get my resolution back?
[06:21] <[BT]Brendan> Every time I reboot the mounted name of my Storage partition gets changed from "Storage" to "Storage_" and there is left behind a "Storage" folder containing 1 of folders with nothing in it.
[06:21] <rahduke> 	\\RAHDUKE-DESKTOP		Ubuntu Box
[06:21] <rahduke> cli_start_connection: failed to connect to RAHDUKE-DESKTOP<20> (<IP_ADDRESS>). Error NT_STATUS_HOST_UNREACHABLE
[06:21] <zicada> remyo_: well, you could throw them in another dir, cd to it and do for $i in * do ; cp file $i ; done
[06:21] <[BT]Brendan> of my*
[06:21] <actionparsnip> Is there a gnome3 ppa for ubuntu yet. I haven't broken my system in a while and fancy a giggle
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  yep. i see similer issues on windows machines.
[06:21] <remyo_> zicada: I'll try that
[06:21] <rigodeni> hey guys, ubuntu failed to load properly last time, and now since i booted in my screen resolution is like its in safe mode, how do i get my resolution back?
[06:21] <lilzeus-web> what is with #httpd having, I don't know, 100+ ppl and nobody is talking?
[06:21] <rahduke> Dr_Willis: what do u think it is
[06:21] <rahduke> ?
[06:21] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  i often edit my /etc/hosts to have the proper ip/machine name. and enable the 'wins' server in my smb.conf  seems to help
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> rahduke: i think its windows being stupid really....
[06:22] <rahduke> Dr_Willis: I'm not using windows...lol I am using samba but no windows computers on this network
[06:22] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: that is a possibility. Just keep checking back
[06:22] <rahduke> this computer will be put on a clients windows network though so i need it to work correctly
[06:22] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  if uysing linux to linux - then NFS will be MUCH faster for file transfers
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  enable the wins server feature perhaps - may help. and set the hosts file to map ip to hostname perhaps
[06:23] <actionparsnip> Rahduke: if you have ssh on them for easy management you can use sshfs
[06:23] <Dr_Willis> rahduke:  ive also noticed that some wireless routers block samba shareing
[06:24] <rahduke> Dr_Willis: both host and client are connected directly to router...
[06:24] <zicada> set up a freakin trust relationship and use ssh
[06:24] <zicada> scp
[06:24] <zicada> etc
[06:24] <zicada> or even sshfs
[06:24] <hunt> Hi, I've got my ~/Desktop on a seperated ntfs partition, now everytime delete something I get a message saying it could not be moved to the trash bin and I have to delete it permanently, how do I fix this?
[06:24] <rahduke> zicada: this computer will not be on my network long
[06:25] <zicada> rahduke: but it will be on A network
[06:25] <zicada> rahduke: the real question is what is going to be its purpose
[06:25] <swapy> sad no luck after reboot ....... it says waiting for other software managers to quit
[06:25] <rahduke> zicada: yes, but they are computer illiterate, it just needs to work... its a custom HTPC box
[06:25] <actionparsnip> hunt: I don't think ntfs stores permissions like linux needs which may be making issues
[06:25] <actionparsnip> !trash
[06:25] <jugger90> hi I just wondering that Can I boot from lan and run on RAM entirely without CDROM or/and HDD
[06:25] <rahduke> i've built over 10 of them and they all worked no problem
[06:26] <zicada> rahduke: so the usecase is ?
[06:26] <actionparsnip> Hunt: make sure you have write access and ownership of the trash folder
[06:26] <rahduke> zicada: huh?
[06:26] <zicada> rahduke: play vids on a tv ?
[06:26] <zicada> rahduke: what is the machine to be used for ?
[06:26] <lilzeus-web> question: how do I "make the hostname resolve to the local IP of your server"?
[06:26] <zicada> what will its purpose be, how will it be connected ?
[06:26] <himanshu_> @everybody plz tell me how tp format pendrive under ubuntu platform.
[06:26] <rahduke> zicada: stream from homenetwork, internet, run xbmc boxee download from usenet save onto network drive etc
[06:26] <actionparsnip> Jugger90: sure you can pxe boot the liveCd on a pxe server if you bios supports it
[06:26] <himanshu_> @everybody plz tell me how to format pendrive under ubuntu platform.
[06:26] <jugger90> pentium 3 raptop maybe hdd broken
[06:27] <swapy> omg its a bug  it continously waits for software managers to quit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/464020 :( cant install anything now from ubuntu software center
[06:27] <[BT]Brendan> himanshu_, you want 1195 people to all tell you the same thing, twice?
[06:27] <rahduke> zicada: it will be connected via wifi
[06:27] <zicada> rahduke: all right, then one default location for storing all files in the home is usually the way to go
[06:27] <himanshu_> no...a single reply will serve my purpose.
[06:27] <zicada> rahduke: figuring out wether it will be the box, or some other box would be step1
[06:27] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: add an entry in /etc/hosts and the name will resolve to the ip you set
[06:28] <jugger90> I already setup PXE booting but i don't now how to run RAM entirely
[06:28] <himanshu_> @Brendan could you help me.
[06:28] <[BT]Brendan> no
[06:28] <rahduke> zicada: well i want to be able to work with anything they do in the future, NAS, stream from new network source (laptop, new computer etc)
[06:28] <actionparsnip> Jugger90: the liveCd by default uses ram only
[06:28] <himanshu_> :(
[06:28] <himanshu_> ok ,
[06:28] <zicada> rahduke: sure, but you generally want to plan first
[06:28] <himanshu_> could somebody plz tell me how tp format pendrive under ubuntu platform.?
[06:29] <zicada> rahduke: where do i want my data, how will other machines connect and retrieve this data
[06:29] <zicada> rahduke: etc
[06:29] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: can you provide an example?
[06:29] <swapy> omg its a bug  it continously waits for software managers to quit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-center/+bug/464020 :( cant install anything now from ubuntu software center           this happened after i updated my ubuntu :( any ideas
[06:29] <sayanriju> himanshu_, You can install and use the friendly GUI of gParted
[06:29] <swapy> help!
[06:29] <zicada> rahduke: like "what works best here, in this setup, with the least amt of hassle"
[06:29] <zicada> swapy: you have another one running
[06:29] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: open the file. There are entrys already in there. Your example :)
[06:30] <rahduke> zicada: bottom line is, I'm selling this thing as-is and all the other boxes ive made just work without any technical skill required.
[06:30] <zicada> swapy: not a bug
[06:30] <iflema> himanshu_ plug it in and right click on the desktop icon then select foemat
[06:30] <zicada> rahduke: aaah
[06:30] <zicada> rahduke: and the issue was ?
[06:30] <actionparsnip> !fixapt | swapy
[06:30] <gilberto> hola
[06:30] <himanshu_> there is no such option of format after right clicking it.
[06:30] <rahduke> zicada: lol ubuntu doesnt automatically recognize smb networks
[06:30] <jugger90> can LiveCD dawnload packages? I will want  lots of package download mainly IRC bot thing
[06:30] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: do I need to restart anything to get this to work?
[06:30] <zicada> rahduke: yea it does
[06:30] <zicada> rahduke: hehe
[06:31] <LordofKings> hello..i had starting learning linux today..but i need to choose between gnome and kde..can anyone suggest which one is good for begineers
[06:31] <zicada> rahduke: errormsg ?
[06:31] <gilberto> I use gnome
[06:31] <swapy> ubottu, E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:31] <himanshu_> sayanriju, how to install gParted ?
[06:31] <rahduke> zicada: lol i know... error is "Unable to mount location" Failed to retrieve share list from server
[06:31] <gilberto> using gnome is not difficult
[06:31] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: no its good to go after you save the new file. You can test with: dig name
[06:31] <sayanriju> himanshu_, sudo apt-get install gparted
[06:31] <LordofKings> i see kde to be better with graphics...like os x and vista
[06:31] <zicada> rahduke: windows boxes browse the lan find i take it ?
[06:32] <zicada> *fine
[06:32] <jugger90> i like lxde
[06:32] <rahduke> zicada: Error: Failed to mount Windows share
[06:32] <rahduke> Please select another viewer and try again.
[06:32] <actionparsnip> Lordofkings: depends on config.
[06:32] <himanshu_> sayanriju, ok , thank you ..i am trying it.
[06:32] <LordofKings> but i find it difficult..because there are many other desktop environments...
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> LordofKings:  'better with graphics' is sort of a meaningless statement..
[06:32] <LordofKings> ok..i am beginner..
[06:32] <swapy> actionparsnip, what does this mean i didint get you
[06:32] <Dr_Willis> LordofKings:  stick with gnome then. its not too hard to learn
[06:32] <swapy> error is like this " E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[06:32] <LordofKings> i need to start with one thin right.
[06:32] <sayanriju> himanshu_, of course, you can do the entire formatting from the terminal too, w/o needing to install anything!
[06:32] <LordofKings> ok gnome it is..
[06:33] <actionparsnip> Lordofkings: you have choice in linux, you made one choice to install ubuntu. Just make another about you DE
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> LordofKings:  crawl, walk, run, fly......
[06:33] <zicada> LordofKings: haha if youre a beginner, just use the default
[06:33] <zicada> LordofKings: its fine
[06:33] <himanshu_> how ?
[06:33] <sayanriju> himanshu_, can you identify your pen drve device?
[06:33] <swapy> yahoo corrected problem thanks guys
[06:33] <sayanriju> something like sdb, etc?
[06:33] <actionparsnip> Swapy: run the command it says: the system is telling you what to type
[06:33] <himanshu_> on  terminal ?
[06:33] <lalalachuchu> hi guys, ubuntu+1 doesnt work and I get sent to ubuntu-unregged, where do I ask Qs about lucid?
[06:33] <swapy> actionparsnip, did the same thanks :)
[06:34] <himanshu_> identify the device on terminal?
[06:34] <sayanriju> himanshu_, anywhere, you just need to know your device
[06:34] <hunt> actionparship: I recently chowned my /home, since the trash is in there it should have the right permissions
[06:34] <IdleOne> !register |lalalachuchu
[06:34] <actionparsnip> lalalachuchu: join #freenode
[06:34] <himanshu_> yes , i can identify it.
[06:34] <iWolf> actionparsnip: Any idea on my wireless problem?
[06:34] <sayanriju> himanshu_, if you do, just check with the command 'sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb'
[06:34] <actionparsnip> Hunt: logical but I don't think ntfs can store the permission
[06:34] <sayanriju> himanshu_, replace sdb with whatever your device is
[06:35] <actionparsnip> Iwolf: sup?
[06:35] <himanshu_> ok
[06:35] <swapy> can we get to know which all apps can be installed via       terminal with this command  "sudo apt-get install  program" where program is eg vlc       can i know the list
[06:35] <sayanriju> himanshu_, the command would list the partitions in your pen drive, put the o/p on pastebin
[06:35] <actionparsnip> Swapy: apt-cache search somethinghere
[06:35] <iWolf> actionparsnip: I follwed the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes -- But I don't think it's working (eeePC 900 [Celeron] )
[06:35] <hunt> actionparship: well the trash folder is not an a ntfs volume, does that make a difference?
[06:36] <swapy> actionparsnip, where is it
[06:36] <actionparsnip> Hunt: the trash folder is stored on the ntfs partition which may cause issues
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> !apt-get | swapy
[06:36] <actionparsnip> Swapy: same place you type sudo apt-get install stuff
[06:37] <jugger90> ok i will try lucid alpha 2 LiveCD on my HHD broken laptop
[06:37] <hunt> actionparship: no the trash folder is under /.local/share/Trash which is on an ext4 volume, just ~/Desktop ~/Documents and such are linked to a ntfs volume
[06:37] <seank> swapy: sudo apt-cache dump | grep Package:   would show you a list of all packages
[06:38] <actionparsnip> Iwolf: did you use: sufo lshw -C network
[06:38] <IdleOne> seank: 18000+ doubt it will fit in his scroll back
[06:38] <actionparsnip> Iwolf: to identify the wireless device?
[06:38] <himanshu_> sayanriju, after typing ' sudo fdisk -l /dev/DHIRAJ  '   [note  DHIRAJ is my ddevice name ] , i am getting the message - 'unable to resolve host himanshu-laptop '
[06:38] <seank> IdleOne: he wanted a full list, noone gave him an answer... how he handles that list is up to him.
[06:38] <swapy> seank, omg its going and going v v huge list
[06:39] <actionparsnip> Iwolf: did you use the netbook remix? It is usually nicer to netbooks
[06:39] <seank> swapy: sudo apt-cache dump | grep Package: | less
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> himanshu_:  what sort of device has a name of DHIRAJ?
[06:39] <sayanriju> himanshu_, no no, you need the device ID...like sda,sdb,etc...not its label name
[06:39] <swapy> yes now its less
[06:39] <swapy> thanks
[06:39] <himanshu_> ohhh.
[06:39] <IdleOne> heh
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> sayanriju:  aha - that makes more sence.. : )
[06:39] <actionparsnip> Swapy: and in linux: less is more ;)
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> !info more
[06:40] <sayanriju> himanshu_, you can find out the device name by plugging in your pen drive and checking the o/p of 'sudo fdisk -l'
[06:40] <IdleOne> Found: more or less what you want
[06:40] <actionparsnip> Dr-willis: you want....more!
[06:40] <ardchoille> Dr_Willis: isn't more part of binutils?
[06:40] <actionparsnip> Haha
[06:41] <paulo> hey guys
[06:41] <wash> Anyone know how to set up favicons in Apache 2.2 on a box running Ubuntu Server?
[06:41] <swapy> btw i want  a remote desktop client which can help connect pc with windows installed  any ideas??
[06:41] <paulo> i'm setupping a web-server
[06:41] <actionparsnip> Ardchoile you can check by running moer. The system will spot you and tell you what its part of
[06:42] <paulo> and when i try to see my info.php on firefox
[06:42] <actionparsnip> Swapy: tsclient
[06:42] <paulo> and firefox try to dl it
[06:42] <faileas> swapy: any rdp client will do that. iirc tsclient is one, or krdp
[06:42] <paulo> instead of view it
[06:42] <seank> wash: put favicon.ico in your web directory ?
[06:42] <paulo> o.o
[06:42] <ardchoille> actionparsnip: wowsers, nice!
[06:42] <wash> Yep
[06:42] <seank> wash: yeah thats all you need to do.
[06:42] <actionparsnip> Ardchoile: part of commandnotfound package ;)
[06:42] <wash> Hm. File might be configured wrong. Do I need something other than gimp?
[06:42] <ardchoille> actionparsnip: kudos to the person who made that package
[06:43] <himanshu_> sayanriju, after typing that command ,'sudo fdisk -l'  i get a  list of device and partition
[06:43] <wash> the image that is
[06:43] <sayanriju> himanshu_, put it up on pastebin (the above list you got)
[06:43] <himanshu_> how to identify which is the one i am looking for
[06:43] <actionparsnip> Ardchoile: totally. It will also tell you the command to run if you try to launch an app which isn't installed currently
[06:43] <swapy> and any program to monitor my network ie lan and net traffic showing me graphs and amount of data download and upload ???????
[06:43] <seank> wash: should be able to save it as a gif or png with a .ico extension.
[06:44] <paulo> I'm trying to access the page info.php but my firefox tries to download it instead of viewing it
[06:44] <sayanriju> wash, there are several online favicon converters, but IMO gimp should do the trick
[06:44] <Harold_parker> anyone know why i can't make a new directory inside another one which is 775 & i'm a member of the group which owns it?
[06:44] <paulo> localhost:8080/info.php
[06:44] <wash> Hm. Strange
[06:44] <faileas> paulo: do you have php installed?
[06:44] <paulo> :x
[06:44] <Harold_parker> http://pastebin.com/d378788a2
[06:44] <actionparsnip> Swapy: ntop or nmap maybe
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> !info ntop | swapy
[06:44] <paulo> yep
[06:44] <wash> I don't need to do anything other than stick it in the home directory?
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  ntop is more for business;s and powar users.
[06:44] <seank> wash: no.
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  thers simple monitors to show kb up/down
[06:45] <himanshu_> whaere is pastebin , i am using IRC  for the first time .
[06:45] <swapy> ok ill try
[06:45] <paulo> faileas that's always happens with ubuntu or other distros based on ubuntu
[06:45] <ardchoille> swapy: gkrellm and conky can show kb up/down
[06:45] <paulo> it's weird ._.
[06:45] <Carci> himanshu: http://www.pastebin.com
[06:45] <actionparsnip> !paste | himanshu
[06:45] <Carci> Or paste.ubuntu.com :P
[06:45] <faileas> Harold_parker: use sudo to make the folder, and chown or chmod it (with sudo) afters
[06:45] <sayanriju> !pastebin | himanshu_
[06:45] <swapy> any program showing graphs too of network dloads uploads?
[06:45] <seank> wash: if your png/gif isn't working, may try a free converter like http://www.favicon.co.uk/
[06:46] <faileas> paulo: i run an ubuntu web server, never had that happen to me
[06:46] <wash> *nods*
[06:46] <ardchoille> swapy: conky can do that, but you need to configure it to do so
[06:46] <Harold_parker> faileas, that isn't a solution to the problem. this needs to work longterm. can you determine what is triggering the error?
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  check out conky
[06:46] <seank> wash: i really thought you could save the ico as a gif/png just with ico extension, browsers these days will know.. but i could be wrong, haven't set up a favicon in a while.
[06:46] <paulo> well
[06:46] <paulo> i used the how to forge tutorial
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> !conky
[06:46] <faileas> Harold_parker: permissions !
[06:46] <paulo> it's worked on centos, arch and fedora
[06:46] <swapy> ok
[06:46] <iflema> Harold_parker use the recursive option -R
[06:47] <kinja-sheep> swapy: There are System Monitors (under Resources tab).
[06:47] <Harold_parker> iflema, mkdir has no -R
[06:47] <Harold_parker> faileas but its 775 & i'm in the group which owns it, why don't i have permission. the group write bit is set!
[06:48] <iflema> Harold_parker when you set the permissions did you use the -R option for chmod,chgrp and the like..
[06:48] <ardchoille> Harold_parker: Have a read:  http://ardchoille42.blogspot.com/2009/08/linux-file-permissions.html
[06:48] <Harold_parker> ardchoille have you checked my pastebin?
[06:48] <Harold_parker> iflema yes i did that
[06:48] <swapy> guys i clicked on link posted on this site http://www.clububuntu.com/2009/03/installing-conky-in-ubuntu-light-weight.html
[06:49] <razertek> anyone know why ubuntu would have firefox loads pages forever but yet a speed test register properly?
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  sudo apt-get install conky
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  conky -C > .conkyrc
[06:50] <Harold_parker> ardchoille the group write bit is set, i'm a member of the group. which section of that page you linked to me is relevant?
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  then run 'conky'  - edit .conkyrc as you want..  :)
[06:50] <chilli0> HI
[06:51] <chilli0> I installed NFS and shared it all. But it stalls every time i try to open the file i mounted it to
[06:51] <swapy> Conky: desktop window (18000a7) is subwindow of root window (1a7)
[06:51] <swapy> Conky: window type - desktop
[06:51] <swapy> Conky: drawing to created window (0x5000001)
[06:51] <swapy> Conky: drawing to single buffer
[06:52] <FloodBot4> swapy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:52] <swapy> yes it worked
[06:52] <swapy> thanks
[06:53] <swapy> now if i want to run conky eveytime do i need to do type that big command you gave?
[06:53] <igie> Hi folks, I've just recently upgraded from 9.04 to 9.10 and for some reason firefox has no sound... anyone know why or how to fix this ?
[06:53] <Harold_parker> ardchoille can you please be specific rather than linking me to an introduction to permissions pls
[06:53] <lilzeus-web> so, where do I go for help with my apache and fixing my DNS problem?
[06:53] <tucemiux> hey how can you enable folders to show up on your deskstop kubuntu?
[06:54] <lilzeus-web> because it is clear that #httpd is of no help
[06:54] <tucemiux> lilzeus-web, try #web ???
[06:54] <chilli0> tucemiux, #kubuntu ?
[06:54] <AutoMatony> I cant create directories in my own home/user folder with mkdir via SFTP, any ideas why? permissions are all 777.
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> !autostart | swapy
[06:54] <actionparsnip> Igie: if you rename you mozilla settings folder and relaunch it, is it ok?
[06:54] <tucemiux> lilzeus-web, you can also try loggin in this channel at another time and day
[06:54] <tucemiux> chilli0, ever been to #kubuntu?
[06:54] <actionparsnip> Igie: just to test, you can rename back
[06:54] <iflema> Harold_parker be careful using the -R option is what im saying.. it will apply to all under.....
[06:54] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  make a script that waits 20 sec.. then launches conky.. and make gnome auto start that script. (is the easiest way i find)
[06:55] <igie> actionparsnip: let me try
[06:55] <Harold_parker> iflema i know thanks mate
[06:55] <wash> Still no luck.
[06:55] <actionparsnip> Igie: could always try the mozilla ppa for a later build. May help
[06:55] <wash> Don't I need to define it in the header though?
[06:55] <igie> actionparsnip: ppa ?
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> wow - conky saw when i edited my .conkyrc and auto-restarted...
[06:55] <actionparsnip> !ppa | igie
[06:55] <Dr_Willis> when did it start doing that. :)
[06:55] <AutoMatony> I cant create directories in my own home/user folder with mkdir via SFTP, any ideas why? permissions are all 777.
[06:55] <razertek> actionparsnip: do you think you might have an idea why my pages load slowly in firefox but yet i get the speedtest results i should have?
[06:55] <tucemiux> chilli0, forget it, i figured it out, kubuntu is starting to suck big time, they have a virtual desktop and you have to click on a button so you can see folders in your desktop?  are they out of their minds??!!!???
[06:55] <lilzeus-web> is it me or is #httpd notorious for mean, unhelpful people?
[06:55] <actionparsnip> Dr_willis: wow awesome :)
[06:56] <Harold_parker> i'm beginning to think i've found a bug
[06:56] <deepheat> having network connection trouble with 9.10 - network works fine on 9.04 but as soon as i install 9.10 on my laptop or desktop, i cannot update/visit webpages etc
[06:56] <tucemiux> Harold_parker, please file a bug report in launch pad
[06:56]  * iflema :0
[06:56] <igie> actionparsnip: my pidgin got removed and replaced with this Empathy IMer theres no sound here either
[06:56] <AutoMatony> bugs seem to work with linux very well these days
[06:56] <onetinsoldier> swapy: if you want to check out a pretty nice network monitor, check out 'iptraf'
[06:56] <Harold_parker> tucemiux are you a bot?
[06:56] <actionparsnip> Razertek: not sure. I ditched firefox ages ago. Try the mozilla ppa it may help
[06:56] <AutoMatony> #httpd people are jerks
[06:56] <AutoMatony> 98% of them
[06:56] <actionparsnip> Igie: do you get any sound from anything?
[06:56] <rww> ubottu: ot | lilzeus-web, AutoMatony
[06:56] <Harold_parker> found bug
[06:56] <razertek> actionparsnip: ty
[06:57] <Harold_parker> hmmmmmm
[06:57] <tucemiux> AutoMatony, that tends to happen a lot when you dont stick to a topic
[06:57] <igie> actionparsnip: yes, when i mouse over music icons i get the sounds
[06:57] <Harold_parker> tucemiux do you say this having viewed my pastebin, or just in general...?
[06:58] <actionparsnip> Igie: good start. If you rename your mozilla profile in $HOME then rerun so you get a stock profile is it ok?
[06:58] <tucemiux> Harold_parker, i say in general, if you believe you found a bug then I highly suggest you file a bug report, otherwise the bug will keep on creeping into ubuntu for eternity, the developers in launchpad actually have more activity than users in the forums, from my experience
[06:59] <lilzeus-web> OMFG!!!!
[06:59] <Harold_parker> tucemiux once i'm sure i've found a bug i'll definitely report it, thanks
[06:59] <igie> actionparsnip: I don't have a mozilla file in $HOME
[06:59] <AutoMatony> now Im getting permissions denied for everything. wtf.
[06:59] <actionparsnip> Igie: try: ls -a
[06:59] <AutoMatony> lilzeus-web, welcome to linux. home of the jerks.
[06:59] <actionparsnip> Igie: its a hidden folder
[06:59] <igie> actionparsnip:  not sure where its at, i know there is one in /usr/share
[06:59] <presumida> hey this is a public channel please don't use those words...
[07:00] <LordofKings> ok..now started downloading both ubuntu and kubuntu 9.10 (karmic Koala)..will be finished in 2-3 hrs...
[07:00] <AutoMatony> I cant create directories in my own home/user folder with mkdir via SFTP, any ideas why? permissions are all 777.
[07:00] <igie> actionparsnip: oh ok lets try looking again
[07:00] <LordofKings> need to know between vmware and virtual box
[07:00] <tucemiux> presumida, youre actually a female?  O_o
[07:00] <igie> actionparsnip: yes i found it in $HOME
[07:00] <presumida> AutoMatony: make sure 777 is for others or al
[07:00] <actionparsnip> Igie: rename it
[07:00] <lilzeus-web> I go to one place for help and get insults an NO help, get referred to another and its "*still* *not* a support channel"
[07:00] <igie> actionparsnip: rename it to what? :s
[07:00] <LordofKings> can anyone suggest be between vmware and virtualbox
[07:01] <Harold_parker> virtualbox for desktop definitely
[07:01] <actionparsnip> Igie: anything. Jist make it different
[07:01] <lilzeus-web> good freaking god, I am just trying to use Ubuntu!!
[07:01] <presumida> tucemiux: lol they actually exist, but no, this ain't a gurl, i just use my mothers netbook :P
[07:01] <tucemiux> AutoMatony, what user are you using to login to sftp?  find out what directory youre in when youre logged in and attempt to create a file
[07:01] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: do you mean a dns resolution so outsiders can access your site?
[07:01] <tucemiux> LordofKings, vmware if you want to pay, you can try virtualbox for free
[07:01] <hithlain> hi, I have a problem, I have installed ubuntu from live CD, now I would like to use "su" command to launch commands I need to be root for, it asks for my password, I enter my user password, but does not work ;) thanks
[07:02] <joe262> hithlain: sudo su -
[07:02] <actionparsnip> Hithlain: use: sudo -s
[07:02] <igie> actionparsnip: yea, none of the flash stuff works
[07:02] <hithlain> oh thanks ;)
[07:02] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: yes, just like a regular website
[07:02] <LordofKings> tucemiux: thanks...i started downloading both ubuntu...kubuntu..so virtualbox it is..
[07:02] <rww> ubottu: sudo | hithlain: more details
[07:03] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: my websites worked fine a week or so ago, I don't know what happened
[07:03] <Guest93651> which is better virtualbox or vmware?
[07:03] <tucemiux> LordofKings, just remember to download virtualbox, dont use apt-get to install it, and download the PUEL version
[07:03] <lilzeus-web> my DNS points to my router, my router port forwards to my server,
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> Guest93651:  try them both - you decide
[07:03] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: then get a free account at no-ip.com and setup your ip as a name there. You will need to port forward if you use a router
[07:03] <presumida> Guest77306: virtualbox, it's open source !
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> I vind vbox much easier to use
[07:03] <LordofKings> tucemiux: thanks
[07:03] <Harold_parker> also it has seamless mode
[07:03] <Harold_parker> which is pure pure pure win
[07:04] <presumida> yeah it's great
[07:04] <actionparsnip> Igie: sounds like you put your flash plugin in the mozilla folder. Am I right?
[07:04] <deepheat> can anyone help me out with network problems on 9.10?
[07:04] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: I think I just said that? :)
[07:04] <AutoMatony> filezilla SUCKS via sftp
[07:04] <pickett> doessnt work well with 2+cpus
[07:04] <presumida> deepheat: fire!
[07:04] <chilli0> tucemiux, Yeh i used it for a bit it just takes some getting use to.
[07:04] <igie> actionparsnip: yes I did that when i was running 9.04 few months before this upgrade
[07:04] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: I don't want to get booted, you don't have to help me with this
[07:04] <tucemiux> lilzeus-web, sounds like an issue for the forums, you can try #web or try this channel at another time/day
[07:05] <wash> Does anyone have some further tips for getting favicons working on apache2 with ubuntu?
[07:05] <actionparsnip> Lilzeus-web: ok is the redirection correct with you wan ip? You can check with www.ipchicken.com
[07:05] <deepheat> says i am connected however updates do not work and loading websites either doesnt work or takes an eternity
[07:05] <sudipta> can u  give the link from where i get the vbox for ubuntu 8.04
[07:05] <deepheat> this is on my laptop and desktop - had to reinstall 9.04 on the laptop
[07:05]  * Harold_parker runs out of the room screaming hysterically
[07:05] <actionparsnip> Igie: then copy the folder from the renamed folder into the current profile folder and rerun the browser
[07:06] <lilzeus-web> tucemiux: #web's topic pretty much says my issue is off-topic
[07:06] <actionparsnip> Sudipta: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[07:06] <lilzeus-web> thanks though
[07:06] <igie> actionparsnip: which one is the current profile folder?
[07:06] <MaRLBoRo> please helpp me to manage my iphone music using ubuntu
[07:06] <actionparsnip> Igie: /home/$USER/.mozilla
[07:07] <igie> actionparsnip: let me try, thanks
[07:07] <tucemiux> lilzeus-web, ok you can try this channel at another time/day, hopefully some one who uses ubuntu to host websites will be able to help you, just remember to post your question all in one line so that people can follow you
[07:07] <Dr_Willis> !ipod | MaRLBoRo
[07:07] <actionparsnip> MaRLBoRo: try banshee or gtkpod
[07:07] <tucemiux> MaRLBoRo, or you can also try amarok
[07:08] <hithlain> is there a way to know what graphic card I have in my computer ? ;)
[07:08] <actionparsnip> Or get a new phone and hit the iphone with something hard and heavy
[07:08] <tucemiux> lilzeus-web, you might also be surprised by what you can learn in #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:08] <actionparsnip> Hithlain: sudo lshw -C display
[07:08] <lilzeus-web> actionparsnip: it looks correct...I use zoneedit.com for my DNS
[07:09] <sudipta> how to sync apple ipod in ubuntu 8.04?
[07:09] <Carci> Another one of those many stupid questions I have: If I decide I wanna try my hand at compiling a kernel myself to use with Ubuntu (Netbook Remix 9.10), how do I go about using that kernel?
[07:09] <stevenfgsdfg> What is the best way to configure my iptables?
[07:09] <actionparsnip> !ipod | sudipta
[07:09] <actionparsnip> !kernel | carci
[07:09] <igie> actionparsnip: there is no other profile folder besides the one I renamed initially.
[07:10] <actionparsnip> Igie: if you run: ls -a
[07:10] <Carci> Heheheh. I don't -have- to compile my own, but I wanna try it. :P
[07:10] <Carci> Thanks for the link.
[07:10] <actionparsnip> Igie: do you not see .mozilla?
[07:10] <igie> actionparsnip: yes I do.. so i guess I am doing something wrong
[07:11] <actionparsnip> !firewall | stevenfgsdfg
[07:11] <actionparsnip> Igie: yep that's the folder which needs the plugin. You will need to make a subfolder in there named: plugins
[07:11] <deepheat> ok it seems no one can help me out - is there a better place to ask questions about network isses?
[07:12] <actionparsnip> deepheat: #networking
[07:12] <deepheat> cheers
[07:12] <nytek_> deepheat: what is your issue?
[07:13] <nytek_> i love ubuntu
[07:13] <deepheat> installing 9.10 means i cant run updates or load websites... from my laptop or pc
[07:13] <igie> actionparsnip: but there is already a plugins sub-folder in a subfolder called firefox within the .mozilla folder
[07:13] <MaRLBoRo> tucemiux, i've install amarok but the application didn't see my iphone
[07:13] <nytek_> out of the box lenovo netbook support
[07:13] <seank> deegee: can you ping say google.com ?
[07:13] <seank> deepheat: rather
[07:13] <igie> actionparsnip: like so... /.mozilla/firefox/plugins
[07:13] <nytek_> deepheat: what kind of connection are you using?
[07:14] <deepheat> direct
[07:14] <nytek_> deepheat: eth0 or wlan?
[07:14] <deepheat> eth0
[07:14] <jemark> deepheat, R U CONNECTED TO ANETWORK?
[07:14] <mmaksimov_> nytek_: Lenovo netbook support? huh, which model?
[07:14] <deepheat> yes...
[07:14] <jemark> oops
[07:14] <seank> deepheat: open a a terminal and trying pinging google.com
[07:14] <jemark> my capslock
[07:14] <nytek_> deepheat: have you tried running dhclient?
[07:14] <deepheat> no
[07:14] <nytek_> deepheat: try dhclient eth0
[07:15] <tucemiux> MaRLBoRo, i thought you had an iPod, sorry I've never tried amarok with an iPhone
[07:15] <nytek_> mmaksimov_: s10e, webcam, bluetooth, mic,etc
[07:15] <sudipta> how to sync apple ipod  shuffle in ubuntu 8.04?
[07:15] <nytek_> mmaksimov_: all working perfect, little bit of tweaking with the mic but other than that. perfect
[07:16] <deepheat> ok done, not to sure what im looking at here.
[07:16] <mmaksimov_> nytek_: I've experienced a blank screen after booting from 9.10 live-usb on s12. Any info on this?
[07:16] <nytek_> deepheat: trying loading google now'
[07:16] <nytek_> mmaksimov_: dont use live, just install
[07:16] <nytek_> mmaksimov_: if you can do that.
[07:16] <seank> deepheat: nytek_ is trying to change your configuration before we even know if you have an ip address and dns configured... type ifconfig -- do you see an ip address assigned for eth0?
[07:16] <deepheat> no luck with that
[07:17] <tucemiux> MaRLBoRo, are you new to ubuntu or are you familiar enough to attempt using your iphone on ubuntu?
[07:17] <Guest75203> just curious, should I get a 250GB (7200RPM ) or a 500GB(5400 RPM) as my 2nd ultrabay laptop hard drive for my lenovo T60, my primary is 120 gig, please advice
[07:17] <nytek_> seank: he is plugged in directly, he obviously has an ip
[07:17] <seank> nytek_: that's a retarded assumption
[07:17] <nytek_> Guest75203: external?
[07:17] <mmaksimov_> nytek_: next time when I'm able to install something on it, I'll try....
[07:18] <Guest75203> nytek_: internal
[07:18] <deepheat> eth0 and lo come up
[07:18] <nytek_> Guest75203: bigger the better
[07:18] <MaRLBoRo> tucemiux, im a new user of ubuntu
[07:18] <deepheat> i have a HWaddr
[07:18] <Guest75203> nytek_: what about RPM ? I think my 120gb primary is 5400 rpm,
[07:18] <seank> deepheat: look for inet addr:
[07:18] <narretgrez> I'm trying to do sudo apt-get install java
[07:18] <MaRLBoRo> don't know how to use my iphone with my ubuntu
[07:18] <narretgrez> but it isn't working
[07:18] <narretgrez> what should i do?
[07:18] <deepheat> yes i have one
[07:18] <nytek_> seank: ubuntu 9.10 doesnt have a problem with internal eth cards...
[07:19] <nytek_> narretgrez: load synatic
[07:19] <seank> deepheat: type   ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:19] <nytek_> narretgrez: synaptic
[07:19] <narretgrez> ohhh ok
[07:19] <narretgrez> oh, i only get access to the terminal
[07:19] <nytek_> narretgrez: you dont have the package name correct
[07:19] <narretgrez> this is a remote server
[07:19] <narretgrez> i don't?
[07:19] <tucemiux> MaRLBoRo, it is possible to do what you are trying to do but it requires a little bit of effort, first of all your iPhone needs to be jailbroken then you can use it and configure it to use with ubuntu, apparently you can also use your iPhone as a modem on your laptop, you can access the internet on your laptop using your iPhone--tethering
[07:19] <narretgrez> it isn't java or java6?
[07:19] <mmaksimov_> narretgrez: what exactly do you mean by "java"? there're different java-related packages
[07:19] <Dr_Willis> !java
[07:20] <deepheat> it keeps going...
[07:20] <TheBigHead> hello room
[07:21] <narretgrez> how do i get this multiverse repository to be recognized by apt-get?
[07:21] <seank> deepheat: are the lines saying 64 bytes .... ?
[07:21] <faileas> narretgrez: sudo apt-get update
[07:21] <deepheat> yes
[07:21] <nytek_> Guest75203: large rpm the better i suppose
[07:21] <jemark> nytek_, check ur cable
[07:21] <sudipta> does ubuntu 8.04 support netbeans???
[07:21] <narretgrez> faileas: ohhh ok thanks
[07:21] <nytek_> Guest75203: what is the price difference?
[07:21] <TheBigHead> I dont know if this is the right place to ask about KUbuntu
[07:21]  * iWolf is AFK, Sleepy Time —I-n-v-i-s-i-o-n—
[07:21] <seank> deepheat: okay, now hit ctrl+c to stop that ping.  and try another one:   ping google.com
[07:21] <MaRLBoRo> tucemiux, my iphone is openline...so i don't want to be jailbroken on that
[07:22] <mneptok> !away > iWolf
[07:22]  * iWolf is AFK, Sleepy Time. Gone now for:«11secs» (Pager is On, /ctcp iWolf Page <message>) —I-n-v-i-s-i-o-n—
[07:22] <narretgrez> E: Package sun-java6-jre has no installation candidate
[07:22] <faileas> TheBigHead: there's #kubuntu on this server
[07:22] <Guest75203> nytek:almost double
[07:22] <Guest75203> 44 and 88
[07:22] <MaRLBoRo> is there a possible to manage my iphone without jailbroken
[07:22] <Diverdude> does ghostview exists to be installed by the packet manager?
[07:22] <nytek_> Guest75203: what is your budget?
[07:22] <TheBigHead> okay
[07:22] <deepheat> seank: it works fine too
[07:22] <TheBigHead> sorry for bothering
[07:22] <infid> what is there besides ubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu and edubuntu?
[07:22] <swapy> guys i am watching movie but display turns black after sometime what to do
[07:23] <frogzoo> there's christian & satanic ubuntus
[07:23] <seank> deepheat: okay, so you're online and your dns resolving is working.  if you type   sudo aptitude update   -- does that complete without error?
[07:23] <iWolf> I had enough of that message
[07:23] <jrib> swapy: how are you watching the movie? what player?
[07:23] <infid> i take it the satanic one has cooler themes
[07:23] <frogzoo> no suicide bomber ubuntu as yet
[07:23] <tertitten> frogzoo, seriously, a satanic version to ? :)
[07:23] <swapy> vlc media player
[07:23] <Guest75203> nytek_: I can get 500GB, no problem, little worried about performance, not sure what I will do with 500 gb also, running Ubuntu with windows inside Vitualbox
[07:23] <mmaksimov_> narretgrez: try sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:23] <Dr_Willis> Guest75203:  you nevaer have enougjh HD space.. :)
[07:23] <narretgrez> ok
[07:24] <nytek_> Guest75203: laptop or desk and how much ram are you running?
[07:24] <Dr_Willis> Guest75203:  faster hd = sucks down more battery life also
[07:24] <deepheat> seank: it pauses on connecting to archive and remains at 0%
[07:24] <Guest75203> nytek_: always laptop, 4gb ram 2x2
[07:24] <narretgrez> is there a specific repository address that i need?
[07:24] <mmaksimov_> narretgrez: ...there should be a line for multiverse.... let me check...
[07:24] <Diverdude> does ghostview exists to be installed by the packet manager?
[07:24] <Guest75203> Dr_Willis: I have 120gb, 320gb and 500gb external, tired of swapping
[07:24] <nytek_> Guest75203: i agree with Dr_Willis, slower rpm with the bigger size
[07:24] <Dr_Willis> Diverdude:  use the search feature of the package manager and see
[07:25] <seank> deepheat: are you just using this on a home network connection?
[07:25] <deepheat> yeah
[07:25] <seank> deepheat: do you have any other computers?
[07:25] <Guest75203> nytek_: ok sounds good :)
[07:25] <nytek_> Guest75203: gl
[07:25] <Guest75203> nytek_: thanks
[07:25] <edomeda> hey guys, I'm trying to install a newer version of homebank (4.1.1) from here http://www.getdeb.net/software/HomeBank but it always seems to grab the old (4.0.3) that is in 9.10.  How can I get the 4.1.1 off that page?
[07:25] <seank> deepheat: does web browsing work on them connected to this same network?
[07:26] <deepheat> yeah the problem is with my pc - i have my laptop here too which im using to chat with you. currently using 9.04 on the laptop and network is fine
[07:26] <nytek_> edomeda: do they have a download for the newest version?
[07:26] <deepheat> it doesnt work on 9.10
[07:26] <mmaksimov_> narretgrez: type Ctrl+W, then search for "multiverse"
[07:26] <deepheat> i even installed 9.10 on the laptop at one stage, didnt work either
[07:26] <edomeda> nytek_, not on their homepage, but I found it on this getdeb.net, just can't download the debs manually
[07:26] <seank> deepheat: in a terminal, type   telnet google.com 80
[07:27] <seank> deepheat: does it say connected to google.com ?
[07:27] <nytek_> edomeda: hmm, have you tried googling the newest .deb file?
[07:27] <deepheat> yes
[07:27] <narretgrez> mmaksimov_: yea, i think i'm missing that
[07:27] <edomeda> nytek_, yeah, and found this getdeb site. lol
[07:27] <deepheat> then escape character is '^]'
[07:27] <nytek_> edomeda: try finding another site.
[07:28] <seank> deepheat: uhm... okay... weird.  so you open up firefox and you can't browse??
[07:28] <deepheat> yeah
[07:28] <seank> deepheat: did you try going to google.com, yahoo, slashdot.org, whatever?? or just one place?
[07:28] <mmaksimov_> narretgrez: sorry, hit the wrong key. Did I miss something?
[07:28] <seank> deepheat: your internet is working and obviously port 80 is not blocked (http)
[07:29] <tucemiux> edomeda, youre using 9.10??
[07:29] <edomeda> tucemiux, yes
[07:29] <narretgrez> mmaksimov_: yea, i noticed i didn't have any multiverse lines
[07:29] <narretgrez> mmaksimov_: thanks for teh tip, i'm currently googling for the right lines to add for karmic
[07:29] <simion314> is there a way to install debuggins symbols for a program in ubuntu? or i have to recompile
[07:29] <deepheat> i have tried a few
[07:29] <jemark> nytek_, are u browsing offline??
[07:29] <deepheat> it just times out
[07:29] <nikos_> ΕΧΩ
[07:30] <nytek_> deepheat: can you run sudo apt-get update without getting an error?
[07:30] <edomeda> tucemiux, 9.10 has 4.0.3, but that has bugs with my date format dd/mm/yyyy, it's fixed in 4.1.1
[07:30] <edomeda> I just can't find the debs for 9.10, I had them for 9.04 :-/
[07:30] <jemark> deepheat, r u browsing offline in firefox?
[07:30] <deepheat> it doesnt even connect
[07:31] <deepheat> work offline is unticked
[07:31] <mattias|farm> hi there people. if possible I'd like some pointers on the proper way to preform the following : Im currently running debian + vista and using grub as bootmanager. What I'd like to do atm is remove the debian partitions, but I guess the grub config and so on is stored on the debian partition (Im not sure where its stored really). Which would be the proper way to remove grub ? Reason I wanna remove is because I wanna install ubuntu afterw
[07:31] <nytek_> deepheat: if you can run update than you dont have an ip
[07:31] <nytek_> deepheat: what about putting your eth down then up again
[07:31] <freeride> how to change login screen in gnome?
[07:31] <tucemiux> edoceo, try reinstalling apturl using synaptic
[07:32] <tucemiux> edomeda, try reinstalling apturl using synaptic
[07:32] <Dr_Willis> freeride:  the gdm in 9.10 is not as themable as the old gdm. thers a few tools/themes out for it
[07:32] <seank> nytek_: he's got a frickin' ip and he's online.  he can ping google's DNS, he can ping google.com, and he can't telnet to port 80 at google.com... he's online and he has HTTP connectivity.
[07:32] <deepheat> it still doesnt work
[07:32] <tucemiux> mattias|farm, did you install windows first?
[07:32] <freeride> Dr_Willis what tools for 9.10?
[07:32] <seank> nytek_: rather he CAN telnet to port 80 at google.com
[07:33] <seank> nytek_: so its something hosed on his system.
[07:33] <mattias|farm> tucemiux : yes
[07:33] <nytek_> seank: ah, is he running 9.10?
[07:33] <seank> deepheat: yeah
[07:33] <deepheat> yup 9.10
[07:33] <Dr_Willis> freeride:  no officail ones.. theres some unofficial. epidermis and --> http://www.webupd8.org/2010/01/gdm2-setup-gets-new-look-and-ubuntu-ppa.html
[07:34] <seank> deepheat: are you pulling my chain?
[07:34] <nytek_> deepheat: when is the last time you updated your system?
[07:34] <freeride> Dr_Willis thanks a lot! :D
[07:34] <deepheat> this is a fresh install i downloaded today
[07:34] <nytek_> deepheat: have you havent updated it since you installed?
[07:34] <deepheat> that would be impossible
[07:34] <tucemiux> mattias|farm, then you shouldnt have a problem, you can use a gparted cd or ubuntu installation CD to boot into gparted and erase debian's partitions. You can also just use windows CD and fix the master boot record if you only want to use windows but you will have to use gparted or partition magic if you want to use the free space in windows
[07:35] <deepheat> because it wont connect to the update server
[07:35] <seank> deepheat: you're not using any kind of proxy are you?
[07:35] <nytek_> deepheat: sorry, just trying to get the facts straight
[07:35] <deepheat> i havent changed anything since i installed
[07:35] <nikos_> ΕΧΩ ΠΡΟΒΛΗΜΑ ΣΤΟ BOOT MENU
[07:35] <edomeda> tucemiux, I did that, firefox launches the apturl and I get an install request, but then the old 4.0.3 is installed.
[07:36] <tucemiux> nikos_, you speak english?
[07:36] <nikos_> NO
[07:36] <seank> deepheat: if you type   telnet google.com 80   then as it's hanging there, type in:  GET / HTTP/1.1   -- does a bunch of html code get returned?
[07:36] <Dr_Willis> weird.. i got 2 cpus.. one will be at 100% for a bit.. 2nd is at 3%... then  about 40 sec later.. it reverses... :) #2 goes up to 100% and #1 goes to 2%
[07:36] <tucemiux> nikos_, sorry this channel is only for english
[07:36] <tucemiux> !greek
[07:36] <deepheat> one different i noticed with 9.10 is that it has a IPv6 tab
[07:37] <deepheat> it says 'trying <IP_ADDRESS>....'
[07:37] <deepheat> i entered that command but nothing happens
[07:37] <tucemiux> edomeda, if you really want the newer version just compile the source code yourself
[07:38] <seank> deepheat: well you telneted to google.com earlier...
[07:38] <deepheat> yeah i closed the terminal since then, do i need to run that fix again?
