[15:04] <cloversg> hi all, I'm looking for instructions on how to have an ubuntu installation boot from a usb thumbdirve but keep configuration settings on the hard-disk after boot, anyon has some ideas?
[15:04] <rigved> Cars10: if yes, then did you get an "unmet dependency error"?
[15:05] <ed_> cloversg: Just curious, why not just installed to the hdd?
[15:05] <yugal> ikonia: I did that.. but it takes about 3-4 mins before trying to connect !
[15:05] <zode> i have another problem
[15:05] <Cars10> rigved: dunno maybe i should try to install it in english
[15:05] <Kai696> CArs10 I'm notsure what you mean? .. sorry...  I used dd_rescue to transfer and it's got all these weird files there now. the filesystem is FAt32 but i think i will convert to EXT4 for ease of use
[15:05] <cloversg> ed_ am trying to have a 6-drive software Raid 5 nas, however ubuntu cannot boot from the raid
[15:05] <chilli0> Hello, I need some help identifying what theme and what icons this is using? http://images.4chan.org/g/src/1287917531761.png anyone please.
[15:05] <yugal> ikonia: It should connect right away after boot
[15:05] <utilitytrack> cloversg: yes, last Ubuntu releases has persistent storage function
[15:05] <izinucs> Cars10: rigved swfdec-mozilla has something to do with playing flash files in browser.. might be a flash issue.
[15:06] <cloversg> utilitytrack, agreed, but these are on the thumbdrive that does not release memory
[15:06] <zode> when im listening to mp3, and i change song manualy, mediaplayer crashes, i click the mp3 again to load it and it crashes instantly ( loads up, playback song for 1 sec n crash
[15:06] <cloversg> somehow my SIL3114 doesn't allow the raid to boot, hence the reason
[15:06] <lyn> hi all, How do I open home directory when it ecrypted ?
[15:06] <ed_> cloversg: Aaa, sorry I know you can store sessions right on the usb drive.  Not sure how to do it on to another drive like a HDD.  Perhaps you can make a partition on your hdd and make that your home?  The rest of the settings should be held on the usb.
[15:06] <utilitytrack> cloversg: what you mean?
[15:06] <psyt7> anyone else having problem with getting two finger scrolling working in ubuntu with synaptics touchpads?
[15:07] <yugal> how to automatically connect to hidden wifi network ?

[15:07] <Dan_E> in Ubuntu 10.10 Min Max and close buttons have disappeared how do I get them back? I know it is in alt + F2 but i forget what to type?
[15:07] <Cars10> why would i get and flash issue in the command line
[15:07] <Kai696> So which command should i use to save the drive (using dd_Rescue) to save it as an image?
[15:07] <maery> hi, when i start my live stick (netbook remix 10.4) everything is black and i even cant get to console... anyone help please
[15:07] <rigved> izinucs: yes but it is probably because Cars10 has an outdated system
[15:07] <rigved> Cars10: ok, type the following commands in the same order as i type them
[15:07] <Cars10> its 10.10
[15:07] <rigved> sudo apt-get update
[15:08] <cloversg> utilitytrack, somehow the SIL3114 drive controller does not allow the boot.  I've simulated a 6-drive raid5 on vmware and it works, but not on actual hardware.  googling has also showed that other people have the same problem
[15:08] <rigved> sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:08] <Cars10> its running in virtualbox
[15:08] <rigved> sudo apt-get install xorg gdm gnome
[15:08] <ravimaddula> hi iam unable to use voip software
[15:08] <utilitytrack> psyt7: see man synaptics(4) if your touchpad uses Synaptics driver
[15:08] <rigved> Cars10: type these three commands
[15:08] <Cars10> ok hold on
[15:09] <ravimaddula> problem with voip software
[15:09] <rigved> Cars10: you will have to confirm the download of many packages after the typing of each command
[15:09] <Daekdroom> Am I gonna have any problems with using a HD with sector size of 4096bytes instead of the usual 512?
[15:09] <Kai696> One further question guys, Gparted is showing I have an NTFS partition (sda1) with a (!) flag next to it.. I'm not sure why I have it, and it's only 9GB.. is there a way I can get rid of it ?
[15:09] <ravimaddula> could any of u tell me how to configure wine
[15:09] <utilitytrack> cloversg: sorry me, but I'm not an expert in RAID
[15:09] <cloversg> ravimaddula, wine should be ok directly from the site/update
[15:10] <ed_> Kai696: Click on it and view properties.  The partition probably contains errors
[15:10] <izinucs> rigved: ah.. didn't know that..
[15:10] <Cars10> hmm
[15:10] <cloversg> utilitytrack, not asking for help on RAID but help from booting from a USB, and saving the configuration on another drive/location
[15:10] <Cars10> rigved: no confirmatitions
[15:10] <ravimaddula> should i need to update wine inorder to work my voip software
[15:11] <Cars10> still same error
[15:11] <ed_> cloversg: Make a partition on one of your hdds.  Edit your /etc/fstab on the usb drive to mount that partition as /home.
[15:11] <cloversg> ravimaddula, no i don't thinks o
[15:11] <izinucs> Kai696: that could be the hidden partition containing the image file of windows the system uses to restore windows after a failure.....
[15:11] <ed_> cloversg: Because of the way that Ubuntu saves things you do everything should be preserved.
[15:11] <utilitytrack> cloversg: I not see any problems. Copy configs and enjoy :))
[15:11] <cloversg> ed_ not so much the /home, but how about /etc and /var
[15:11] <Kai696> izinuc, makes sense...not sure how I can activate it however
[15:11] <ed_> cloversg: Those are preserved automatically I believe.
[15:12] <ed_> cloversg: Have you noticed otherwise?
[15:12] <trzu> Hello, I have got a short question: I want to build a small home server (file server, backup server and media streaming) and I'm deciding between Debian and Ubuntu. Which one will consume less power (and thus cost me less)?
[15:13] <garos> trzu, they do not have any differences in power consumption
[15:13] <cloversg> ed_ these are put in the persistent section, but as you know the usb has limited space and life span on writing
[15:13] <ravimaddula> my windows applicatioble to acess the netn cant a
[15:13] <Kai696> "Unable to find mount point,. Unable to read the contents of this file system!, because of this, some operations may be unavailable. The following list of software packages is required for ntfs file system support: ntfsporgs" <-
[15:13] <rigved> Cars10: when did you get the error? after typing the update command, upgrade or the install command?
[15:13] <trzu> garos, thank you. So I'll just flip a coin then.
[15:13] <ka1ser> trzu: I think it depends more on the kernel version they are using, and the apps (deamons running) you have installed...
[15:13] <utilitytrack> trzu: strange question. It's not related to any distribution, because powersaving functions provided by Linux kernel
[15:13] <rigved> cars10: i tried the same commands in my qemu-ubuntu server, they seem to be working
[15:14] <ed_> cloversg: Yeah, but as you move more and more over to your hdd you'll discover all you really want on the usb is the /boot dir.  ;)
[15:14] <ravimaddula> how to configure network configuration in wine inorder to acess net
[15:14] <antonella_bella> coz_: a little bit of issues... when I start and application (amarok, vlc...) using the eq, volume goes to 100%...
[15:14] <garos> but utilitytrack, one can set power saving settings from any distro
[15:14] <izinucs> Kai696: on boot there's typically a key you hit to get to it..  which key should flash on the screen along with how to get into the bios
[15:14] <cloversg> ed_ agreed, however, need to install samba etc and there are settings in /etc etc, also the upgrades.
[15:14] <cloversg> Looking for something like freenas
[15:14] <Cars10> rigved: im stating all over installing again from ubuntu-10.10-server-i386.iso in english
[15:15] <rigved> Cars10: after typing the upgrade command, i was asked to confirm the download of 176 MB of packages
[15:15] <cloversg> I'm looking for something like freenas
[15:15] <hellyeah> hey
[15:15] <Kai696> izinucs Thanks :) Sir
[15:15] <hellyeah> i try to install xbmc
[15:15] <rigved> Cars10: i do not think that re-installing is going to solve it, but you can give it a try
[15:15] <coz_> antonella_bella,  ah ok ..that part you may have to deal with in #pulseaudio
[15:15] <ed_> cloversg: The number of write it better controlled by the relatime mount option then controlling how many packages you install or something else.
[15:15] <rigved> Cars10: installing ubuntu-server takes a heck lot of time
[15:15] <Turgon_Noldor> hello everybody.. any latex users here?
[15:16] <hellyeah> i follow http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HOW-TO_install_XBMC_for_Linux_on_Ubuntu,_a_Step-by-Step_Guide but apt-get search xbmc gives no result i add necesaary repositıory
[15:16] <rigved> Cars10: in hours
[15:16] <hellyeah> what is wrong here
[15:16] <Cars10> rigved: ok i got no confirm after upgrade and it took 2 secs
[15:16] <ed_> Turgon_Noldor: yep
[15:16] <vigge_sWe> what is .xsession-error, why is it 25GB and why does it grow by ~1GB/min?
[15:16] <izinucs> Kai696: of course it could also be the backup image of windows that is used by a windows program to create install cd's after the initial purchase of a system..
[15:16]  * vigge_sWe is confused
[15:16] <Cars10> took about 20 mins i think
[15:16] <rigved> Cars10: then it means that you have an updated system
[15:16] <zode> can someone tell me why mediaplayer/openshotVeditor crashes when im trying to preview/play video file?
[15:17] <rigved> Cars10: probably
[15:17] <ed_> rigved: Cars10 It takes 1 or 2 hours at the most.  On a powerful enough server it might take 20 or 30 minutes.
[15:17] <arrrghhh> vigge_sWe, it's an error log, that is growing large because of a large # of errors...
[15:17] <ed_> Cars10: I agree
[15:17] <Turgon_Noldor> ed_, ok... i want to add jpeg to document...
[15:17] <cloversg> hmmm
[15:17] <ed_> Turgon_Noldor: Oh sorry, no idea :P  Just attach the jpeg on another page XD
[15:17] <Cars10> ill do an english install
[15:17] <vigge_sWe> yeah I know that, but why? And shouldn't programs clean themself when the error log is getting too large?
[15:17] <Turgon_Noldor> ed_, lol that's fine... :)
[15:18] <rigved> Cars10: ok
[15:18] <utilitytrack> zode: because you use unstable version of it
[15:19] <arrrghhh> vigge_sWe, depends... i had a rogue program called NMIS that i had to create a cron job to clean the logs for me, otherwise the hdd would fill up  real quick.  the solution was to track down the errors & fix 'em.
[15:19] <vigge_sWe> well, the file is so large I can't even open it
[15:19] <vigge_sWe> I can only see the first couple of lines
[15:19] <rigved> ed_: Cars10 has installed in VirtualBox, it is bound to take a very long time (but of course that depends on the amount of RAM given to the VM)
[15:19] <zode> utilitytrack: unstable? but how come the video editor crashes too?
[15:20] <zode> utilitytrack: also mp3's stopped crasing after i disabled that viz thing
[15:20] <rigved> Cars10: after that to install a GUI, type the three commands in order
[15:20] <trzu> utilitytrack: Well it does, but I want to install the server, Samba and MediaTomb without doing too much work otherwise, so I thought there is a difference between Debian and Ubuntu regarding the preinstalled Programs
[15:20] <Cars10> rigved: ok
[15:20] <vigge_sWe> are there any trash folder on ubuntu?
[15:20] <arrrghhh> vigge_sWe,  tail :D
[15:20] <Turgon_Noldor> hello any tex user?
[15:20] <vigge_sWe> I removed the log, but the space is still not available
[15:20] <Kai696> Howdie folks I'm trying to make a dd_rescue .img of one of my files; here's the output and command
[15:20] <utilitytrack> zode: It seems that you use Ubuntu 10.10. It's beta software. Try downgrade to 9.10
[15:21] <Kai696> chad@chad-Aspire-X1700:~$ sudo dd_rescue /dev/sdd /dev/sda3/backup.img
[15:21] <Kai696> dd_rescue: (fatal): open "/dev/sda3/backup.img" failed: Not a directory
[15:21] <ahmet> When i plug in my headphone, speakers does not stop playing the sound. I get sound from both headphone and speakers.
[15:21] <arrrghhh> vigge_sWe, how did you remove it?
[15:21] <zode> utilitytrack: downgrade = format, reinstall?
[15:21] <Kai696> ahmet -> this isn't helpful for your problem but I think that would be awesome lol
[15:21] <vigge_sWe> rm .xsession-error
[15:21] <zode> reinstall with 9.10*
[15:21] <scotty^_> ahmet - what make and model is your computer?
[15:21] <utilitytrack> trzu: no difference, because it's your choose what will installed and what not.
[15:22] <meatbun> what does this mean?
[15:22] <meatbun> php5-mysql:
[15:22] <meatbun>   Depends: php5-common (=5.3.2-1ubuntu4) but 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2 is to be installed
[15:22] <meatbun> which one do i have right now?
[15:22] <utilitytrack> trzu: I mean Ubuntu server vs Debian
[15:22] <arrrghhh> vigge_sWe, no that should've removed it.  there is a 'trash can' so to speak, but only when you delete from the gui.  rm removes it.
[15:22] <vigge_sWe> hmmm
[15:22] <trzu> utilitrack: Okay. So I only install what I need. What would you reccommend then, Debian or Ubuntu? The packages I need are available for both.
[15:23] <vigge_sWe> can I somehow see what the biggest file on the system is?
[15:23] <chmod> meatbun, sudo dpkg -l | grep php
[15:23] <chmod> but you may want to; apt-get -f install <- first
[15:23] <arrrghhh> vigge_sWe, hrm there's probably some slick way to do it... i know of du.  there's also the disk utilization utility if you're running ubuntu-desktop...
[15:23] <xangua> trzu: if you came asking in an ubuntu channel, the answer is...
[15:23] <vigge_sWe> yeah I tried the utility
[15:24] <ElNota> trzu: Ubuntu is like Debian but easier, anyways it's your choice, but honestly, I prefer Ubuntu
[15:24] <ka1ser> vigge_sWe: you could play around with 'find' command
[15:24] <utilitytrack> trzu: I recommend strongly Debian stable. Because it's very stable software.
[15:24] <vigge_sWe> unfortunately it seems broken
[15:24] <trzu> xangua I know, but I doubted there was a Debian.vs.Ubuntu-channel
[15:24] <vigge_sWe> it says / is only 7GB
[15:24] <ElNota> utilitytrack: Yes, but what software uses it? firefox 1.2 hyper-patched?
[15:24] <meatbun> chmod, ok. it says i have ii  libapache2-mod-php5                  5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2                                server-side
[15:24] <arrrghhh> trzu, that's the tradeoff.  debian = more stable, but older software.  ubuntu = more friendly, newer software - but bleeding edge is called that for a reason ;)
[15:24] <vigge_sWe> also, when I take properties on the filesystem, it says it's 128TB
[15:25] <meatbun> chmod, but why it said "5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2 is to be installed"
[15:25] <trzu> Thank you for your reccommendations utilitytrack and EINota. I'll use debian then, because I only need tar, MediaTomb and Samba and that's available for debian-stable.
[15:25] <utilitytrack> trzu: try Debian 5.0.6 if you wish set up good server
[15:25] <vigge_sWe> I can at least take screenshots now
[15:25] <xangua> trzu: well this isn't, arrrghhh bleeding edge¿ he could use LTS
[15:26] <utilitytrack> ElNota: did you get answer
[15:26] <arrrghhh> xangua, ubuntu is just a little riskier with their package choices than debian.
[15:26] <ElNota> utilitytrack: And as xangua says, LTS versions are very stable
[15:26] <|GoLTaR|> i need some help... if anybody can help me :) i have vps... and i want to make vhost ... i try to google some tutorial for that , but no luck :( can somebody help me? :)
[15:26] <she_dyed>  Kai696 maybe it doesnt need 'backup.img' try leaving it out
[15:26] <vigge_sWe> http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t179/viggesWe/Screenshot-7.png
[15:26] <ikonia> arrrghhh: don't talk nonsense, nothig risker
[15:26] <arrrghhh> ikonia, not nonsense dude...
[15:26] <rigved> trzu: ya Debian-Lenny is very good, i have it on my laptop (only because Ubuntu Netbook cannot be installed on it as it is a very old laptop)
[15:26] <ikonia> arrrghhh: there is nothing "riskier" about ubuntu than debian
[15:26] <xangua> !ot
[15:26] <utilitytrack> ElNota: my experience did not confirm this
[15:27] <meatbun> php5-common (=5.3.2-1ubuntu4) but 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2 is to be installed   <--- which one is the newer one?
[15:27] <revberaldo> Hello. I'm using Arch Linux and want to install Ubuntu in its partition. The thing is, I have a encrypted /home and the installer doesn't have an option to mount the partition during installation. What should I do?
[15:27] <elgh> Is MyPhoneExplorer compatible with Ubuntu 10.04 - 10.10?
[15:27] <ikonia> revberaldo: use a seperate home
[15:27] <ElNota> utilitytrack: In my opinion Debian is like Ubuntu but with old applications
[15:27] <arrrghhh> ikonia, whatever dude, as xangua said this is OT.  it's my opinion from running both.  i wasn't expressing it to you.
[15:27] <chmod> meatbun, it is a depends for 5.3.-1ubuntu4 - the new/replacement is 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2
[15:27] <revberaldo> ikonia: it is separated
[15:27] <arrrghhh> ElNota, Ubuntu is built on Debian so that would make sense :P
[15:28] <ikonia> revberaldo: then you have nothing to worry about the encypted partition is nothing to do with your ubuntu install
[15:28] <vak> hi all
[15:28] <meatbun> chmod, i dpkg -l |php says i have 5.3.2-1ubuntu4.2  , yet i stilll can't install it. why?
[15:28] <chmod> try; sudo apt-get -f install
[15:29] <scotty^_> OK, I've filed fdo bug 31078 regarding the problem I was talking about earlier.
[15:29] <gee0> so anyone else experience lock ups after installing nvidia-current drivers on their netbook?
[15:29] <vak> my google-chrome gives no notification sound when google chat receives an incoming message
[15:29] <Kai696> meatbun did you check your software center to see what you have so far ?
[15:29] <revberaldo> ikonia: but I want to use it as my /home partition. I'm thinking about installing Ubuntu ignoring this partition, then edit /etc/crypttab and so on
[15:29] <ka1ser> revberaldo: create another partition for home, and another partition for root... keep them separate from whatever you use for Arch... your Ubuntu doesnt need to even know the others exist...
[15:29] <vak> Anyone has the same issue with notification?
[15:29] <meatbun> Kai696, no. where is software center?
[15:29] <utilitytrack> ElNota: No, yor make mistake, because it's Ubuntu is derivative of Debian but not vice versa. Also, apps in Debian are not old, but very stable.
[15:29] <ikonia> revberaldo: mount it after the install
[15:30] <Kai696> DD_rescue gives me an error : chad@chad-Aspire-X1700:~$ sudo dd_rescue /dev/sdd /dev/sda3/backup.img
[15:30] <Kai696> dd_rescue: (fatal): open "/dev/sda3/backup.img" failed: Not a directory but im not sure why ? Im trying to make an image of sdd and post it to sda3
[15:30] <she_dyed>  Kai696 maybe it doesnt need 'backup.img' try leaving it out
[15:30] <ElNota> I remember with Pidgin there was an script called IRC-more which could add more functions to Pidgin, but there isn't on plugins-pack of 10.10, anyone knows from where can I download it?
[15:30] <vigge_sWe> sooo, anyone?
[15:30] <scotty^_> https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31078
[15:30] <ikonia> Kai696: you can't do that
[15:30] <revberaldo> ikonia, ka1ser: thank you for the answers, I see what I can do.
[15:30] <meatbun> Kai696, the GUI software center is not as detail as cli
[15:30] <ikonia> Kai696: /dev/sda3 is a device not a file system
[15:31] <ikonia> Kai696: you can't write to a device like that, you need to mount the device and write to the file system
[15:31] <Kai696> ikonia, sorry for being a noob :P how do I do that ?
[15:31] <ikonia> Kai696: explain what you are trying to do
[15:31] <rigved> utilitytrack: it's not that the apps are old, but they are just different, not the popular ones which everyone uses these days
[15:31] <gee0> so its safe to assume theres no optimus support on any version of linux as of yet?
[15:31] <Kai696> copy and entire disk drive and put it on a partition that I have set up @ Ikonia
[15:32] <Kai696> (as an image file)
[15:32] <rigved> utilitytrack: like there is no firefox
[15:32] <ikonia> Kai696: is the partition bigger than the whole disk you want to backup
[15:32] <Kai696> no, 500GB for disk and 600 GB for partition
[15:32] <ikonia> Kai696: so yes, the partition IS bigger than the entire disk
[15:32] <arrrghhh> rigved, it's just rebranded as 'iceweasel'...
[15:32] <ElNota> rigved: Right, it's icecat, isn't it?
[15:33] <scotty^_> Debian has renamed Firefox to  Iceweasel due to licencing issues
[15:33] <Crewsr3> I just installed 10.10 and I'm setting up empathy with my chat accounts and I cannot get yahoo to work.  I'm getting an authentication failed error.  Using the same sign-in information I can sign in using Meebo.  Is there a particular setting I'm over looking?
[15:33] <Kai696> ikonia, yes, so there shouldn't be a problem. I'm going disk to partition, not partition to disk
[15:33] <ikonia> scotty^_: no it's not
[15:33] <ikonia> scotty^_: iceweale is slightly different
[15:33] <rigved> oh, ok
[15:33] <Kai696> sdd (disk) to /sda3 <-
[15:33] <hamfast> setting up ubuntu for my radeon x1650, ive run into a vague step in the wiki.   is it "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=  radeon.modeset=1"   or should i put the modset on a new line?
[15:33] <ElNota> oh yes, iceweasel, not icecat
[15:33] <ikonia> Kai696: ok so sudo dd if=/dev/sdd of=/dev/sda3 bs=512k
[15:33] <ikonia> Kai696: then wait
[15:33] <xangua> Crewsr3: is your system updated¿ also pidgin never fails to mee
[15:33] <Cars10> rigved: in the install there is an option for manuel pack install, should i mark it?
[15:34] <sobczyk> hi, is there any good program for flowcharts except DIA?
[15:34] <elgh> How do I access USB Devices in VirtualBox?
[15:34] <rigved> Cars10: not unless you want to hand-pick packages
[15:34] <Kai696> Ikonia sorry, just so I can understand, what is the 512 for ?
[15:34] <ikonia> Kai696: block size
[15:34] <arrrghhh> elgh, you have to be running the non-free edition of VB.  the ones in the repo are completely free, OSS and they do not have usb or rdp support.
[15:34] <scotty^_> ikonia - Thanks.  I didn't know that.  How is it different?  (Or where can I read about the differences?)
[15:34] <Crewsr3> I figured it out xangua I was adding the<EMAIL_ADDRESS>and you don't need the<EMAIL_ADDRESS>portion  thanks !
[15:34] <ikonia> scotty^_: web search iceweasle
[15:34] <rigved> Cars10: you can install the default packages for each server automatically
[15:35] <Cars10> ok so im not needing does for the gui
[15:35] <Kai696> okay, it's waiting right now, will it give me updates of it's status ? and what should be the outcome?
[15:35] <rigved> cars10: like tick LAMP server to install php, mysql etc
[15:35] <ikonia> Kai696: it won't update you, just wait for it to finish, it will take a while
[15:35] <Cars10> ok i dont need those
[15:35] <she_dyed> ikonia: can he come back next week :)
[15:36] <Licuadora> Hello ýall
[15:36] <scotty^_> sobczyk - I think koffice has flowcharting program
[15:36] <ka1ser> hmm I think it is less risker to send it to a file than directly to the partition
[15:36] <ikonia> she_dyed: 500GB - maybe
[15:36] <ikonia> ka1ser: I don't disagree
[15:36] <ikonia> ka1ser: but I also see neither as a risk, just one slightly tidier
[15:36] <Kai696> ikonia,  what should the output file be like ? an image? just a hard transfer or ? and how do I reset the backed up drive? (restore it back to normal once the disk is restored)
[15:36] <elgh> Upgrading to 10.10 solved the problem of using USB Devices in VirtualBox. ^
[15:36] <ka1ser> lol @ she_dyed
[15:36] <ikonia> ka1ser: not an image, it's a direct block by block copy on the partiion /dev/sda3
[15:36] <ikonia> ka1ser: sorry - not you
[15:37] <Licuadora> I am no expert, but I think this has something to do with me having a DUMMY OUTPUT :          http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/dX145TKH
[15:37] <ikonia> Kai696: not an image, it's a direct block by block copy on the partiion /dev/sda3
[15:37] <rigved> does anyone know whether VirtualBox under 10.10 supports x64 architechture?
[15:37] <Kai696> so to restore to a workable drive how do i do that ?
[15:37] <Licuadora> I mean, "usb-audio"?
[15:37] <ikonia> Kai696: reverse it
[15:37] <OostK> When using terminal to download a page (for example: GET http://www.google.com), I download just the google webpage. When using 'GET http://www.google.com HTTP/2.0' I download an extra page which is titled 'HTTP Information and Resources'. Any ideas on why this is happening?
[15:37] <Cars10> rigved i think it does
[15:37] <rigved> i have 10.04 and the virtualbox only supports x86 arch
[15:37] <arrrghhh> rigved, your host os has to be 64-bit unless your chip supports hw virtualzation.
[15:37] <Licuadora> Can some one tell me What to do?
[15:37] <ikonia> Kai696: sudo dd if=/dev/sda3 of=/dev/where_you_want_it bs=512k
[15:37] <Kai696> so if I made /sda3 bootable it should load ?
[15:37] <ikonia> Kai696: no
[15:38] <rigved> Cars10: ok
[15:38] <arrrghhh> rigved, you can run x64 on 10.04... you just need what i said.
[15:38] <Kai696> sdd is a seperate drive from a laptop and is a bootable disk drive (with win7 installed)
[15:38] <ikonia> Kai696: so ?
[15:38] <Kai696> so why wouldn't it be bootable ?
[15:38] <kl0x> Does anyone know how to make an application to ask the pass everytime you run it?
[15:38] <Yankefish> hey guys need alil help with video
[15:38] <Kai696> ikonia ^^
[15:38] <rigved> arrrghhh: i am sorry, could you repeat that again
[15:38] <kl0x> I want thunderbird to ask my pass everytime i run it
[15:38] <arrrghhh> rigved, your host os has to be 64-bit unless your chip supports hw virtualzation.
[15:38] <Yankefish> i have a raedon 7000 old school video cpu im trying to set up for my kids
[15:39] <rigved> arrrghhh: what do i need
[15:39] <ikonia> Kai696: because it's a block by block copy which references it identically as if it was /dev/sdd - and it is not /dev/sdd, its a different disk, with different sizing, different naming
[15:39] <ikonia> Kai696: it's also a partition, not a disk, you boot the mbr on a disk, not a partition
[15:39] <Yankefish> when i go to enable desktop effects i get an error
[15:39] <rigved> arrrghhh: i have an x64 OS
[15:39] <arrrghhh> rigved, i forget the terms.  amd is like hyper-V and intel is something else...  is your host OS not 64-bit?  then you should be fine...
[15:39] <Kai696> oh, >< hahah sorry your right IKonia :) Thanks a lot..
[15:39] <scotty^_> Yankefish - I doubt that a card that old supports compiz
[15:39] <she_dyed> Yankefish: no 3d?
[15:40] <Kai696> Yankefish hardware drives installed ?
[15:40] <rigved> arrrghhh: i have intel dual core, Ubuntu 10.04 x64 and no H/W VT support
[15:40] <Yankefish> VGA compatible controller [0300]: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] [1002:5159]
[15:40] <arrrghhh> rigved, well if your host is x64, your guests should be able to run x64 as well...
[15:40] <Yankefish> thats output from terminal
[15:41] <rigved> arrrghhh: that's weird, because there is no option to set the arch to x64 in my virtualbox
[15:41] <scotty^_> yeah, it probably doesn't support a high enough OpenGL version to be able to run compix
[15:41] <scotty^_> compiz
[15:41] <aaron_> hehe
[15:41] <Yankefish> i read this faq ( couldnt get it to work)https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver
[15:42] <rammyIRC> i removed my network manager from the panel
[15:42] <rammyIRC> how to get it back
[15:42] <rammyIRC> there
[15:42] <rammyIRC> ?
[15:42] <FloodBot3> rammyIRC: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:42] <she_dyed> Yankefish: at boot prompt did you try entering vga=something
[15:42] <xangua> rammyIRC: alt+f2> nm-applet > enter
[15:43] <Yankefish> how do i do that ??
[15:43] <rammyIRC> oh
[15:44] <kl0x> I cant get back my email configuration in thunderbird
[15:44] <kl0x> I've got profile folder..
[15:44] <kl0x> strange, because i've done it before...
[15:44] <arrrghhh> rigved, i'm assuming the OS you're installing is 64-bit...?
[15:44] <elgh> How do I access a folder in Ubuntu from my VirtualBox OS Win XP?
[15:44] <rigved> arrrghhh: yes, it's ubunut-server 10.04 x64
[15:45] <kl0x> elgh: I guess setting up a LAN
[15:45] <arrrghhh> elgh, use the 'shared folders' feature is probably the easiest, although there's many ways.
[15:45] <Moopz> Hey. I'm programming Java, and I'd like to switch from OpenJDK to SunJDK, however, even after I've installed Sun 6 JDK, I cannot choose it in Eclipse as a compiler? I tried restarting, and nothing.
[15:45] <Sean93> how do i get Postal 2 to work on ubuntu? I installed it with wine but i cant turn properly and there is no sound
[15:45] <Cars10> elg add a shared folder in the VB
[15:45] <rigved> arrrghhh: i have it currently installed in qemu
[15:45] <arrrghhh> rigved, are you running virtualbox from the repo's or from the DEB on the web page?
[15:45] <elgh> arrrghhh, I created a folder in my home folder, and added that in settings for VirtualBox... Then what? ^
[15:46] <scotty^_> Yankefish - with a recent version of Ubuntu you shouldn't have to worry about anything on that page - the free ati driver should be installed and configured by default.  But I think you can't run compiz (desktop effects) on a card that old.
[15:46] <arrrghhh> elgh, some googling will ensue, i've never done it.  just know that's what you need to do, short of setting up samba :P
[15:46] <elgh> I remember I did it once, and it was really simple. I just wish I remember how to. ^
[15:46] <Cars10> rigved: ok back in the command line after install
[15:47] <rigved> arrrghhh: both i have tried...ose from repo and non-free from website
[15:47] <scotty^_> Sean93 - what versions of Ubuntu and wine?
[15:47] <arrrghhh> rigved, yea i didn't think there would be a difference with this feature between ose & non-free...
[15:47] <rigved> Cars10: sudo apt-get update
[15:47] <r1k0>  anyone has a Z serie vaio with hybrid nvidia/intel? any hint I can make the nvidia GPU to work? I'm stuck with nomodeset to get a display
[15:47] <Kai696> :D love sudo apt-get update xd
[15:48] <Sean93> 10.10 ubuntu, how do i see wines verion?
[15:48] <Yankefish> i cant enable any effects at all, says im in low res mode??
[15:48] <osmosis> everything I saw on the web about swappiness says lower value means minimal swapping. So I changed my swappiness from 60 to 10. And now I can see on the graphs that a huge swap_cache and way more swap file is in use. I was trying to turn off swapping because whenever linux starts doing random unimportant stuff with the swap file, it messes up my IO throughput. Helpful suggestions appreciated!
[15:48] <scotty^_> Sean93 - open Synaptic package manager and search for wine
[15:48] <Cars10> rigved: all read no confirm
[15:48] <CyberGabber> elgh: rigved : In Guest choose the VM-menu 'devices'>'Shared Folders' and choose then map you made in ubuntu
[15:48] <Moopz> Hey. I'm programming Java, and I'd like to switch from OpenJDK to SunJDK, however, even after I've installed Sun 6 JDK, I cannot choose it in Eclipse as a compiler? I tried restarting, and nothing.
[15:49] <Cars10> and then?
[15:49] <rigved> Cars10: sudo apt-upgrade
[15:49] <arrrghhh> rigved, apparently i was incorrect.  virtualbox only supported x64 guests if your chip supports hw virtualization... that's a shame.
[15:49] <rigved> *srry
[15:49] <Sean93> scotty^_:  1.2.1-0ubuntu1
[15:49] <rigved> Cars10: sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:49] <scotty^_> Yankefish - what resolution does System->Preferences->Monitors show?
[15:50] <elgh> CyberGabber, I did that. But I guess I have to make something in VirtualBox to open that filder.
[15:50] <Licuadora> http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/dX145TKH
[15:50] <Yankefish> 1280x1024
[15:50] <Cars10> rigved: its downloading now
[15:51] <she_dyed> Yankefish: does it have enough ram 1G or so
[15:51] <scotty^_> hmm, that's not exactly low res
[15:51] <rigved> Cars10: let it finish
[15:51] <Yankefish> cpu has 1 gig, video card is a 64mb card
[15:51] <Barridus> Sean93, if you need to know what version you have *installed* just open Applications -> Wine -> Configure Wine -> About tab
[15:52] <Sean93> its version 1.2.1
[15:52] <pmvalente> Hi, I have an asus ul30A notebook, when I upgrade to 10.10 (clean install) the touchpad sometimes doesn't work well, it get a little bit laggy. Some ideas.  I know restarting would work but I am not in a position to restart this system. How do I free the locked files so that dpkg and apt-get work again.
[15:52] <CyberGabber> elgh: rigved Now in guest(XP), open 'networkneighbourghhood', that's : My Networklocations> FullNetwork> VirtualboxShardFolders, than open the \\ map you made in ubuntu
[15:52] <arrrghhh> Yankefish, i wouldn't run desktop effects on that PC.  they'll just drag everything down..
[15:52] <vak> Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't show the current keyboard layout anymore! How to show these 2-char code again ?!
[15:53] <kl0x> Yankefish: me either, too low memory
[15:53] <she_dyed> Yankefish: did you try old method or new method from that webpage
[15:53] <scotty^_> Sean93 - you could try Crossover Games - see http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=ODcwMA
[15:53] <docsy> hey, quick question.  been installing new themes and stuff.  just wondered how you installed the login screen themes from art.gnome.org?
[15:54] <Yankefish> new but my xorg is empty
[15:54] <elijah> The KDE Desktop Sharing window keeps presenting itself on reboot, everytime, how can I make it stop doing that?
[15:54] <she_dyed> Yankefish: tried the video= at boot?
[15:55] <Kai696> docsy depends,, only way I know of changing out the login theme on vista/7 is using a program like stardocks utilities
[15:55] <Cars10> rigved: ok its done
[15:55] <Yankefish> how do i do that she dyed??
[15:55] <elgh> CyberGabber, Doesn't help I'm sorry. ^
[15:55] <she_dyed> Yankefish: grub lets you type e to edit
[15:55] <nvoo> dudes, hello
[15:55] <xangua> docsy: you don't, gdm was rewritten
[15:55] <Yankefish> so press e when my cpu boots?
[15:56] <nvoo> is anybody using a radeon 5670 card with ubuntu 10.10? does the open driver work?
[15:56] <docsy> why does it give you a list of login screens to download then ?
[15:56] <she_dyed> Yankefish: when you see the grub screen, sometimes tab shows you more options
[15:56] <Yankefish> k 1 sec what do i need to enable
[15:56] <Stavros> hello
[15:56] <CyberGabber> elgh: Did you install the 'VirtualBox Guest Additions' in your guest?  (See the VM-menu of your guest-machine)
[15:56] <Stavros> is the output from init.d daemons sent to syslog by default?
[15:57] <elgh> Yes, I did.
[15:57] <rigved> Cars10: sudo apt-get install xorg gdm gnome
[15:57] <CyberGabber> elgh: Your 'host' is ubuntu ?
[15:57] <rigved> Cars10: fingres crossed...
[15:57] <Cars10> rigved: what about the guests adds?
[15:57] <she_dyed> Yankefish: i'm on this page http://is.gd/gfYC2
[15:57] <Cars10> ^^
[15:57] <elgh> I use Ubuntu. And Windows XP in VB.
[15:57] <scotty^_> nvoo - According to Phoronix the open driver works with the Radeon HD5xxx series but there is no 3D support yet
[15:57] <rigved> Cars10: you can do it anytime
[15:57] <Cars10> ok
[15:58] <CyberGabber> elgh: OK, Step1, make a map in e.g. your homedir, called 'virtmap'.
[15:58] <scotty^_> (well there is partial 3D support in git master)
[15:58] <elgh> Did that.
[15:58] <Cars10> rigved: do i only need core if i only where to install virtualbox on it?
[15:59] <Yankefish> brb going to try
[15:59] <CyberGabber> elgh: In XP-guest, choose the VM-menu 'devices' > 'shared folders'
[15:59] <she_dyed>  gl Yankefish
[15:59] <kl0x> Isn't just moving the profile folder of Thunderbird supposed to work?
[15:59] <Yankefish> thx
[15:59] <elgh> Done.
[15:59] <yohu2004> can you say chinese
[15:59] <rigved> Cars10: i am not sure abt that, but you can install only core if you want, it will not install other supporting software like openoffice etc
[15:59] <elgh> I also added the folder I would like to share in Ubuntu there.
[15:59] <she_dyed> kl0x: or using profile manager
[15:59] <vinux> anyone know how to arrange desktop icons from the command line???
[16:00] <vak> Ubuntu 10.10 doesn't show the current keyboard layout anymore! How to show these 2-char code again ?!
[16:00] <rigved> Cars10: go ahead with only core
[16:00] <arrrghhh> vinux, lol not off the top of my head... why would that be useful?
[16:00] <kl0x> she_dyed: that's what I just done but it doesn't seem to work, all my emails and local folders, email settings don't appear
[16:00] <Cars10> ok becuase i dont need them
[16:00] <rigved> Cars10: sudo apt-get install xorg gdm gnome-core
[16:00] <vinux> because I am writing a script for partially sighted people
[16:00] <CyberGabber> elgh: Can you 'ping' you host from within guest-XP ? I think it's an network-setting in Vbox
[16:01] <she_dyed> kl0x: don't they have like the new 'migrate' feature somewhere
[16:01] <vinux> I can resize the text automatically but not force the icons to rearrange
[16:01] <elgh> Nope, can't. ^
[16:01] <arrrghhh> vinux, oic... sorry, i'm aware of any method to do that.
[16:01] <pmvalente> Hi, I have an asus ul30A notebook, when I upgrade to 10.10 (clean install) the touchpad sometimes doesn't work well, it get a little bit laggy. Some ideas. Thanks.
[16:01] <stringarray> Suddenly, the automount for my digital cameras and usb sticks stopped working, I have Ubuntu 10.04, anyone wants to help mounting a canon camera? I can pastebin output for lsusb, gvfs-mount -l and dmesg | tail -20
[16:01] <vinux> I have tried lots of things - but only thing that works is right clicking
[16:02] <kl0x> she_dyed: I see nothing of that
[16:02] <vinux> is there a way to capture commands being issued by the menu
[16:02] <Moopz>  Hey. I'm programming Java, and I'd like to switch from OpenJDK to SunJDK, however, even after I've installed Sun 6 JDK, I cannot choose it in Eclipse as a compiler? I tried restarting, and nothing.
[16:02] <Cars10> rigved: looks like its running this time
[16:03] <kl0x> she_dyed: I create  a new profile pointing to the folder I had and it creates a new Local Folders Folder..
[16:03] <rigved> Cars10: :)
[16:03] <rigved> vinux: is it similar to Orca
[16:04] <elgh> CyberGabber, works to ping now..
[16:04] <vinux> Vinux uses Orca - it is a remaster of Ubuntu for the blind
[16:04] <kl0x> she_dyed: I've tried moving my LocalFolder to the new one and doesn't work either
[16:04] <vinux> I have added scripts to change the colours and font sizes on the fly, but can't rearrange desktop icons
[16:05] <she_dyed> vinux: checked out wmctrl?
[16:05] <vinux> no is it in the ubuntu repository
[16:05] <scotty^_> Sean93 - also Wine 1.3.5 has improved Shader Model 4 support - see http://www.winehq.org/announce/1.3.5
[16:06] <she_dyed> i get mine from debian vinux but it is 50-50 with some wm

[16:17] <kl0x> how come I can't sudo cd anywhere? sudo: cd: command not found
[16:17] <pilates> !paste
[16:17] <Moopz> id10t, I uninstalled it via Update center
[16:17] <v_v> pilates, you'd better not, the bot is not friendly
[16:17] <pilates> ok
[16:17] <Kai696> how do i edit files i open in Open office ?
[16:17] <id10t> just upgraded hardware, my i5-650 cpu is only showing one core in /proc/cpuinfo ... ideas?  using -pae kernel, all 8gb of ram is detected, but only one core is in /proc/cpuinfo
[16:17] <llutz> kl0x: sudo cd somewhere           doesn't make sense at all
[16:18] <arrrghhh> kl0x, why do you need so sudo cd at all?
[16:18] <elgh> Does anyone know how to used shared folders with VM?=
[16:18] <Kai696> vm tools installed ?
[16:18] <arrrghhh> elgh, did you google?  i guess i can for ya, but that's all i'd be doing.
[16:18] <arrrghhh> i'm _sure_ several people have done this before you :P
[16:18] <pilates> http://paste.ubuntu.com/519281/
[16:19] <elgh> arrrghhh, I created a folder in my home folder. Added the shared folders in VM... Then what?
[16:19] <llutz> pilates: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb
[16:19] <pilates> open the link and see the msg
[16:19] <kl0x> you both are right lol
[16:19] <arrrghhh> elgh, that... doesn't answer my question.
[16:19] <elgh> arrrghhh, Yes.
[16:19] <pilates> llutz, ?
[16:19] <llutz> pilates:paste output of " sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb"
[16:20] <llutz> to pastebin, please
[16:20] <arrrghhh> elgh, oy.  ok... so is ubuntu the host and winxp the guest?
[16:20] <Kai696> anyone know how i can edit a document in open office that I opened? it's set to read only
[16:20] <pilates> llutz, doesnt output anything
[16:21] <elgh> arrrghhh, Yes.
[16:21] <mmyself> strange that Linux created thumnails of massive proportions  and just leaves them in te file system clogging it up. Microsoft did this a long time back and people had to write programs to clean-up the mess. Now Linux does it.
[16:21] <Moopz>  Hey. I'm programming Java, and I'd like to switch from OpenJDK to SunJDK, however, even after I've installed Sun 6 JDK, I cannot choose it in Eclipse as a compiler? I tried restarting, and nothing.
[16:22] <pilates> when i type sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb it doesnt give me anything
[16:22] <llutz> pilates: the stick is still attached?
[16:22] <she_dyed> moops guys in #eclipse have no answers?
[16:22] <pilates> yes
[16:22] <arrrghhh> elgh, Have you read Chapter 4.3. Shared folders in your VirtualBox users guide?
[16:22] <she_dyed> moopz guys in #eclipse have no answers?
[16:22] <id10t> pilates - does dmesg | grep sdb show anything?
[16:22] <Ryzy> ugh
[16:22] <elgh> Read a guide, but it didn't help me.
[16:23] <Moopz> she_dyed, didn't know there was a channel.
[16:23] <Ryzy> so frustrating
[16:23] <Moopz> she_dyed, thanks
[16:23] <she_dyed> gl Moopz
[16:23] <llutz> id10t: see his paste
[16:23] <v_v> pilates, this is wierd, pull it out, and plug it in again
[16:23] <darg> Hi, I'm experiencing a strange phenomenon... I just upgraded to 10.10 and whenever i put my mouse over a sound file in nautilus, I lose my left-clicking ability...  right-click still works... anyone saw anything like that ?
[16:24] <arrrghhh> elgh, http://www.giannistsakiris.com/index.php/2007/09/28/virtualbox-access-shared-folders-from-windows-xp-guest-os/

[16:25] <kl0x> darg: that's why I don't usually upgrade this soon
[16:25] <kl0x> darg: bugs are daily bread
[16:25] <darg> hehe :-)
[16:25] <kl0x> amm probably some parameter in nautilus configuration
[16:25] <kl0x> I'd search on gconf
[16:26] <darg> it's true that i was 6 month late for the last upgrade and everything went smooth
[16:26] <darg> thanks kl0x
[16:26] <elgh> arrrghhh, Got it to work with another site. Thanks.
[16:26] <kl0x> dargn: np
[16:26] <arrrghhh> good.
[16:26] <Cars10> when i try to run the guestadd in vb nothing happens
[16:26] <pilates> llutz, i reattached it
[16:27] <pilates> llutz,  ill paste the new msg
[16:27] <arrrghhh> Cars10, it should mount a disc...
[16:27] <pilates> llutz,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/519285/
[16:27] <Cars10> arrrghhh: it show on the desktop and i right click it
[16:27] <kl0x> How come I can't restore my profile folder in thunderbird?
[16:27] <kl0x> I've tried everything and it doesn't work
[16:27] <llutz> pilates:paste output of " sudo fdisk -l " please
[16:27] <arrrghhh> Cars10, ok...?
[16:27] <Ryzy> ANy one know any thing about wacom tablets?
[16:28] <Chaos2358> hey guys i have a question. Does ubuntu "lucid" have something similar to windows disk defrag and disc cleanup?
[16:28] <blag> whats the ip of nntp.ubuntu.com?
[16:28] <Cars10> arrrghhh: how do it run from the terminal?
[16:28] <id10t> Chaos2358, the ext[234] family of file systems really don't fragment
[16:28] <arrrghhh> Cars10, just run it from my computer or places
[16:29] <blag> Chaos2358: the disk cleaner program is in System -> Administration -> Computer Janitor
[16:29] <Cars10> yeah but it wont
[16:29] <darg> Chaos: it depends on your filesystem mostly
[16:29] <id10t> Chaos2358, and temp files would be in /tmp and handle themselves, adn temporary update files are dealt wtih via "apt-get clean"
[16:29] <arrrghhh> Cars10, do you see the disc mounted...?
[16:29] <Cars10> yes
[16:29] <xangua> !info bleachbit | Chaos2358
[16:29] <pilates> llutz,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/519286/
[16:29] <Chaos2358> idiot sudo?
[16:30] <id10t> Chaos2358, sudo apt-get clean
[16:30] <SingAlong> I have a Toshiba Satellite M505 S4975 and my laptop heats up too fast in Ubuntu (its a dual boot with win7). Been using ubuntu for years, never found such a problem
[16:30] <llutz> pilates: does not recognize the stick... seems to be broken
[16:30] <SingAlong> besides, this laptop is a new one.
[16:30] <pilates> ok, sounds fair
[16:30] <Chaos2358> idiot it doesnt do anything. well doesnt return any info
[16:30] <pilates> llutz, how are you able to see it ?
[16:30] <arrrghhh> Chaos2358, what's the problem?  are you out of space on /?
[16:30] <pilates> because there only are sda's in the list ?
[16:31] <SingAlong> anyone?
[16:31] <Ryzy> ANy one know any thing about wacom tablets?
[16:31] <llutz> pilates: it would have been listed as additional drive (sdb/sdc...).
[16:31] <arrrghhh> SingAlong, that's pretty vague.  my laptop heats up like crazy, but it's not ubuntu's fault.
[16:32] <Chaos2358> arrrghhh no not out of space but being installing and trying alot of different apps and such then deleting, alot of updates etc i'm used to running a defrag every other week on widows but since i switched to lucid dont know how
[16:32] <pilates> llutz,  ok appreceite your help.. thank you
[16:32] <arrrghhh> Chaos2358, i thought this at first as well.  ext file systems (others as well) don't fragment like Windows file systems do.
[16:32] <llutz> pilates: 1st time it was at least recognized as disk "[  946.026002] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk", 2nd time it was ignored. so my _guess_ is, its somehow broken
[16:33] <c3> Whats up people.
[16:33] <Stava> I'm trying to install Skype, and this page (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype) says I can do it with a simple apt-get install. However, I get an error saying "Package skype is not available, but is referred to by another package.", does this mean that I need to download and install it from Skypes website instead? Or is there a repository that I can add?
[16:33] <tieinv> chaos linux dont need defrag
[16:33] <UpAllNightBrain> Whats a good IDENT server to install?  Do they have a good safety track record?
[16:33] <SingAlong> arrrghhh: ya but never used to this much heat
[16:33] <arrrghhh> Chaos2358, so they don't need to be defragmented - they clean up after themselves on the fly.
[16:33] <Chaos2358> arrrghhh, ok well ok then even better. than k you
[16:33] <c3> I dont know if im in the right channel, is this the help channel? or is there a dedicated one?
[16:33] <pilates> llutz,  thats what i thought was strange.. its recognized but not able to se content... so i also thought broken but maybe with some terminal cd command and then ls  to see content but no :)
[16:33] <SingAlong> arrrghhh: wow. a large number of people seem to be having heating problems with toshiba m505. google says so
[16:34] <arrrghhh> SingAlong, does google have any solutions? :P  perhaps there is a bug in a particular kernel.
[16:34] <Chaos2358> sorry for bad typing. have tree brok efingers
[16:34] <llutz> pilates: "to cd to the stick" you need it to be recognized as a drive and to mount it. both failed in your case
[16:34] <pilates> llutz,  thank you very much for your help
[16:35] <pilates> ill come back if i meet other problems
[16:36] <guntbert> c3: this is the ubuntu support channel, welcome
[16:36] <Cajun_Lan_Man> the first google hit I get on the m505 heat issue is a link to the Ubuntu forums.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1282161
[16:36] <SingAlong> arrrghhh: no idea. just reading the threads. seems like this model has the overheating problem
[16:36] <c3> I want to share my music on the web, create usernames and passwords for certain users to connect to it. is there a simple webserver for ubuntu that does the job
[16:36] <c3> guntbert thank you.
[16:37] <arrrghhh> SingAlong, c'est la vie.
[16:37] <guntbert> c3: usually people use apache
[16:37] <arrrghhh> c3, you can setup apache but that's going to take a lot of configuration... ftp may be easier with multiple users/passwords.
[16:37] <SingAlong> arrrghhh: its a kernel bug as to one of the threads
[16:37] <arrrghhh> SingAlong, sounds about right.  are you on 10.10?
[16:38] <rigel> hi, i'm not sure what support channel is most appropriate for this, but i keep having problems authenticating to my school's IIS webserver. It appears to not be a problem with ubuntu specifically, because it happens (i log in, but it redirects me to login again) on windows as well as other browsers. i've rebooted my router etc, but that hasnt helped.
[16:38] <guntbert> c3: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[16:38] <c3> guntbert, I know apache is an option. but as you said, its really complicated. is there some sort of software that archives the music and puts them on the web,,
[16:38] <ikonia> rigel: nothing to do with here then, talk to your school
[16:39] <guntbert> c3: I really don't know, never tried it - please put your question to the channel again
[16:39] <rigel> ikonia: they didnt sound like they were getting a lot of help requests, so i'm assuming the problem is on my segment of the network
[16:39] <ikonia> rigel: give them a nudge then
[16:39] <arrrghhh> c3, subsonic, jinzora... ampache
[16:39] <v_v> rigel, maybe it's not your problem, something maybe wrong with your school's IIS
[16:40] <Cajun_Lan_Man> I have a printer question, if someone could assist.  I've been using Ubuntu for a while now, and I think i'm ready to make it my primary home machine. My one hang up is my printer. It's a Samsung CLP-300 color laser. I get some strange things when I print from Ubuntu. VERY dark graphics, and random characters on PDF's.
[16:40] <xangua> c3 if you use opera you could use unite, kind of make the browser like a little server
[16:40] <Sean93> to get postal 2 o work in wine i was told to add "MouseWarpOverride->force" to the regestry, how do i do this?
[16:40] <Sean93> to wokr**
[16:40] <xangua> of course only works while opera is open
[16:40] <Sean93> work*
[16:40] <josemota> how can i resize my ubuntu partition so I can pop in a new distro? thank you guys.
[16:40] <Cajun_Lan_Man> I've tried some troubleshooting, with no luck.  I'm wondering, does Linux in general work better with HP printers? There seems to be more support for them.
[16:41] <Cajun_Lan_Man> HP seems to be big on Linux support.
[16:41] <arrrghhh> josemota, you can, but it's best to backup & do a clean install.
[16:41] <rubiks> Cajun_Lan_Man: hello
[16:41] <arrrghhh> Cajun_Lan_Man, i love HP on linux.  all their printers/scanners have worked for me.
[16:41] <Cajun_Lan_Man> rubiks, Hey there.
[16:41] <guntbert> Sean93: please ask in  #winehq
[16:41] <arrrghhh> well, all the ones i've tested :P
[16:42] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, I also noticed there is some kind of HP toolkit available in he software center.
[16:42] <rubiks> Cajun_Lan_Man: kthxbai
[16:42] <she_dyed> josemota: i've used gparted but not wth ubuntu
[16:42] <c3> arrrghhh, these are all streamers, do you know of one that allows actual downloads?
[16:42] <arrrghhh> Cajun_Lan_Man, can't comment on that.  all i know is my hp all-in-one lives on linux just fine.  other printers do as well, but i definitely recommend hp.
[16:43] <arrrghhh> c3, i think they all allow downloads as well as streaming...
[16:43] <josemota> she_dyed: i'll give it a try
[16:43] <llutz> arrrghhh: there are paperweight HP-printers too, no fun with them
 is this a streaming program?
[16:43] <josemota> she_dyed arrrghhh: thank you so much.
[16:43] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, Did you install any software to use with the HPs, or did you just let Linux do its thing automagically?
[16:43] <arrrghhh> c3, you'll have to look at each package tho, i'm not positive.  i use subsonic, love that app.
[16:43] <she_dyed> josemota: you're welcome; good luck
[16:44] <c3> arrrghhh there is nothing in Subsonics website that says anything about download, only stream, lemme check jinzora
[16:44] <arrrghhh> Cajun_Lan_Man, linux just did its thing.  it did install some software as i recall...
[16:44] <crunch2> Hi i would like to know how can i find the /dev/** of my mobilephone bluetoth conection?
[16:45] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, Got it.  I likely won't be getting a multifunction.  I like color lasers because I've got 3 kids in school who like to print......a lot.    Too much $$$ for inkjet, but the color laser multi's are expensive.
[16:45] <llutz> crunch2: usually its a /dev/rfcomm*
[16:45] <arrrghhh> Cajun_Lan_Man, color laser anything's expensive ;)
[16:45] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, HP has a little low end color laser for $200.  Might just get that.
[16:45] <v_v> crunch2, maybe you can grep output of dmesg
[16:46] <crunch2>   llutz: hum, im looking for it in a terminal bu it's not there
[16:46] <arrrghhh> Cajun_Lan_Man, dang.  we get enterprise network printers for work, they're so expensive.  haven't looked at consumer laser printers in years tho...
[16:46] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, but when it comes to cost per page, the color lasers are much cheaper than the inkjets.  My kids LOVE to do projects that require printing out color stuff from the web.
[16:47] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, the consumer stuff is much cheaper.  It just falls apart when you throw enterprise workloads at them.
[16:47] <crunch2> llutz: i have connected it with the bluetooth aplication
[16:47] <guntbert> !ot | Cajun_Lan_Man
[16:47] <arrrghhh> Cajun_Lan_Man, indeed.  well good luck.
[16:47] <Cajun_Lan_Man> arrrghhh, thanks for the input.
[16:47] <arrrghhh> np
[16:47] <AndChat|> Any way to install 32bit printer drivers in 64bit？
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> AndChat|: doubt it, you MAY be able to if you install ia32-libs
[16:48] <ActionParsnip> AndChat|: this sort of thing is why 32bit is recommended
[16:49] <AndChat|> Yeah, i am wondering why i bothered with 64bit
[16:49] <crunch2> llutz: when i open a file inside the mobilephone it says something like obex..
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> AndChat|: if you do a lot of audio or video encoding it helps
[16:50] <llutz> crunch2: ah so you don't want to use it as modem? sry i misread you
[16:50] <ActionParsnip> AndChat|: it also helps with accessing large ram amounts, but PAE allows 32bit to access 12Gb RAM
[16:51] <SingAlong> arrrghhh: if you are interested in a solution... http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8124254&postcount=46
[16:51] <AndChat|> Yeah i do a lot of audio
[16:51] <SingAlong> arrrghhh: thats for grub2. so check your grub version too :)
[16:51] <arrrghhh> ActionParsnip, i think it's all the way up to 64gb believe it or not.
[16:51] <arrrghhh> SingAlong, i have an alienware that is from 2004... nothing's going to solve my heat problems :P
[16:51] <SingAlong> anyway I just tried that method. have to restart mylaptop to figure out. i'll be back and report.
[16:51] <ActionParsnip> arrrghhh: really, nice

[16:51] <no|NeTskY> omfg
[16:52] <ikonia> no|NeTskY: control your language
[16:52] <ActionParsnip> arrrghhh: yeah it is 64gb, thats pretty gnarly
[16:52] <arrrghhh> ActionParsnip, i know it.  found that out myself the other day ;)
[16:53] <Condorito> Hi all.
[16:53] <ActionParsnip> hi Condorito
[16:53] <AndChat|> Jeez.  Can recent mobos even take 64gb？
[16:53] <llutz> no1peanut:  grep CONFIG_RDS /boot/config-$(uname -r)
[16:53] <crunch2> llutz: let me explain my idea it may help :) i have a nokia phone and the nokia software through wine, but i cant connect my phone. from what i have searched if i create a symbolic link to dosdevices in wine it may happen that i can acess the phone through the nokia software. Going back to my question i wanted to know how can i find the location of my bluetoth connection :) thanks in advance
[16:53] <arrrghhh> AndChat|, lol with enough $$$ yes.
[16:54] <ActionParsnip> AndChat|: Tyan Motherboard 5400
[16:55] <Condorito> Some guidance again, please. Still with the HP-Mini-110 wireless problem on ubuntu 10.10. Won't work. Should I try the proprietary driver, and if so, which is it?
[16:55] <llutz> crunch2: no idea sorry, maybe this can help you http://series60-remote.sourceforge.net/
[16:55] <AndChat|> So your average mobo aint going to be able to handle 64
[16:55] <ActionParsnip> Condorito: use a wired connection and get full updates, then use the hardware driver app in the system menu
[16:55] <Fuemo> Is really working?
[16:55] <Fuemo> nice
[16:55] <Cars10> how do i download and install firefox on my gnome-core ?
[16:56] <ActionParsnip> AndChat|: not yet anyway
[16:56] <arrrghhh> AndChat|, oh no.  some data center servers can have up to 1tb per blade in RAM... but this is OT.
[16:56] <crunch2> llutz: yes that helps :) i have already installed it but it doesn't allow to backup contacts
[16:56] <Fuemo> Sorry to all. it's my 1st time on this chat
[16:56] <ActionParsnip> Cars10: sudo apt-get install firefox
[16:56] <Condorito> Plug it in? Okay, I'll do that. Thanks.
[16:57] <crunch2> llutz: but the thing is i have the phone connected through bluetooth how can i find under /dev where it is?
[16:57] <AndChat|> Cars10, sudo apt-get install firefox
[16:57] <AndChat|> Oops
[16:57] <c3> arrrghhh do u know whether subsonic requires apache and SQL?
[16:57] <Cars10> thx
[16:57] <llutz> crunch2: i don't think that link will create an /dev device.
[16:57] <arrrghhh> c3, not sure.  it'd be mysql if anything, and i know it depends on java.  apache is definitely required.
[16:58] <Cars10> how do it know where to get firefox?
[16:58] <arrrghhh> c3, it may use sqlite tho, not sure.
[16:58] <arrrghhh> Cars10, the repo's.  /etc/apt/sources.list
[16:58] <Cars10> ok ty
[16:58] <c3> arrrghh ooh i c,, ill download it and see,
[16:58] <AndChat|> Because firefox is in the repository
[16:58] <crunch2> llutz: he opens as pen drive but i cant find where it is
[16:59] <gio_> ciao
[16:59] <gio_> !list
[16:59] <crunch2> llutz: found it: ~/.gvfs/NOKIA N82$, thanks anyway :)

[17:07] <arrrghhh> under, you can create a bootable usb to install/run ubuntu...

[17:07] <Cars10> what todo about this error: /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:07] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, are you on 10.10?
[17:07] <Cars10> arg
[17:08] <gaberlunzie> hi, using ubuntu 10.10 64-bit and when i lauch firefox, in addition to the usual 'firefox-bin' process there's another (new?) 'firefox' one .... is there supposed to be 2 processes?
[17:08] <under> arrrghhh: I've to create a bootable usb for *windows xp*.
[17:08] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: yes sir
[17:08] <arrrghhh> under, you're in a channel for *ubuntu*
[17:08] <Cars10> what todo about this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519298/
[17:08] <llutz> under: as in #windows  or something like that
[17:08] <id10t> under, look at bartpe   ... now you know everything i do about a "livecd" for xp
[17:08] <ActionParsnip> id10t: you dont need any extra access to run those commands, your user can do all those
[17:08] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, hm.  i think i have to put in a password to get the wifi to connect, but i thought they fixed that enable wireless bug in 10.10.
[17:08] <under> arrrghhh: lol, I'm using *UBUNTU*. I need a linux's tool to do this :)
[17:09] <id10t> ActionParsnip, i was working as root doing other stuff when i made it
[17:09] <llutz> under: there is no such tool
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> slashfoo: could use wicd instead
[17:09] <ActionParsnip> id10t: ok thats fine
[17:09] <Talvikuutamo> is there a nice frontend/GUI for dd?
[17:09] <Maike05> Can someone help me with xorg ? I've a splitted screen with strange character. It's impossible te get back the graphical interface
[17:09] <arrrghhh> under, you can't boot winxp from a usb key (to my knowledge) - perhaps with winpe or bartpe... but that's not something for this channel, sorry.
[17:09] <Talvikuutamo> not for me, but somebody who hardly knows anything about linux
[17:09] <id10t> ActionParsnip, i am not a linux newbie... just this issue of cores is causing hair loss...
[17:09] <ChogyDan> slashfoo: is this a fresh boot?
[17:09] <AndChat|> Under：do you have the xp .iso？
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> id10t: do you have the latest BIOS?
[17:10] <under> AndChat|: Yes I've
[17:10] <id10t> ActionParsnip, yes
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> id10t: also saw your post on justinux.com
[17:10] <Diamondcite> Maike05: Does it boot like that?
[17:10] <slashfoo> ChogyDan: Yeah
[17:10] <ActionParsnip> id10t: i suggest you set the bios to failsafe
[17:11] <gaberlunzie> is it normal to have 2 firefox processes running, i.e., 'firefox-bin' and 'firefox'
[17:11] <she_dyed> then step back
[17:11] <arrrghhh> id10t, so htop only showed one core...?
[17:11] <gaberlunzie> i used to notice only one, 'firefox-bin'
[17:11] <AndChat|> Under：go into the software repository and search for iso related tools
[17:11] <ActionParsnip> id10t: make sure you dont have this option enabled http://en.kioskea.net/faq/616-multicore-cpu-how-to-disable-a-core
[17:11] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: so it's a bug then? are there any workarounds?
[17:11] <id10t> arrrghhh, yeah
[17:11] <Condorito> Hi all, again. Sorry, another one now..
[17:12] <donvitoo> i use phpsysinfo but when i go to check Distro name says Unknown how to fix that?
[17:12] <id10t> ActionParsnip, definately no playing w/ boot command line...
[17:12] <mnoyce> gaberlunzie: Looks like it is... I have that too. Just never noticed it before.
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> id10t: try disabling apic, it may help: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/how-to-enable-smp-in-ubuntu-9-1-amd64-766175/
[17:12] <guntbert> gaberlunzie: right now ps aux | grep fire       shows 3 processes here
[17:12] <ActionParsnip> id10t: look at the last post
[17:12] <tommorris>  donvitoo: open up a terminal, cat /etc/issue
[17:12] <Condorito> How do I find the name of the DWA125 wireless package I installed so that I can uninstall it?
[17:13] <arrrghhh> id10t, wow... that's maddening.  can't say i've ever heard of that tbh...
[17:13] <ActionParsnip> Condorito: there isnt one specific to the device
[17:13] <ace_steel> hi,i m hving problems with a created panel on xfce environment
[17:13] <gaberlunzie> mnoyce: ok, good to know ... i was only aware of 'firefox-bin' before
[17:13] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, well you can use wicd - found it works a lot better than nm-applet.  also, you could probably configure the wifi in /etc/network/interfaces
[17:13] <she_dyed> gaberlunzie: how many tabs you got on it now
[17:14] <gaberlunzie> guntbert: 3 processes, u mean with same names? i have 2 with different names ...
[17:14] <corrytonapple> Hello all. Just got Konverastion working
[17:14] <brubelsabs> Is there a way to sync message filters and even configuration properties of your thunderbird? I've so many installations work, at home, 2 laptops... and I don't want to create the same message filter 4 times!!!
[17:14] <corrytonapple> Hello all! Just got Konverastion working
[17:15] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: I've used wicd on other distros and it's worked awesomely, so I just uninstall the applet and install wicd?
[17:15] <id10t> ActionParsnip, ok... gonna reboot and sort thru bios
[17:15] <brubelsabs> other email clients are welcome
[17:15] <id10t> ActionParsnip, bbiaw
[17:15] <corrytonapple> Sorry for repeat message, am still learning
[17:15] <donvitoo> i use phpsysinfo but when i go to check Distro name says Unknown how to fix that?
[17:15] <Talvikuutamo> hi! is there a nice frontend/GUI for dd? (not for me, but somebody who hardly knows anything about linux and wants to make a disk image of his disk)
[17:15] <Condorito> ActionParsnip: Umm. I had installed the "2009_1204_RT3070_Linux_STA_v<IP_ADDRESS>" to get a DWA125 wireless usb working, but it is no longer needed. How do I get rid of it now, please?
[17:15] <donvitoo> i need to fixx it in phpsysinfo
[17:15] <gaberlunzie> she_dyed: i have 1 tab right now but 2 firefox processes with diff names
[17:15] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, not sure how uninstalling nm-applet will work... may be easier to just disable it from running @ startupt.
[17:15] <gaberlunzie> she_dyed: firefox-bin, firefox
[17:15] <xangua> brubelsabs: just copy your hunderbird configuration file
[17:15] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: ok, will try that
[17:15] <donvitoo> i use phpsysinfo but when i go to check Distro name says Unknown how to fix that?
[17:15] <donvitoo> i need to fixx it in phpsysinfo
[17:15] <Kai696> Hey can someone lend a hand to try to get Nlite working in WINE via Ubuntu ?
[17:15] <she_dyed> gaberlunzie: no, open tabs?
[17:16] <mnoyce> gaberlunzie: One looks like a launcher shell script, the Firefox process,  and two more processes spawned by the firefox process.
[17:16] <donvitoo> because it says distro name Unknown
[17:16] <Cars10> how do i open a *.deb file?
[17:16] <brubelsabs> xangua: yes putting it under ubuntu one or something similar seems to be the only solution
[17:16] <corrytonapple> Is this a help area? I am still looking for the topic..
[17:16] <xangua> !appdb | Kai696
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> Condorito: ok what did you do with it, was it compiled?
[17:16] <gaberlunzie> she_dyed: from what the others say, i figure it's normal either with this version or this platform
[17:16] <Condorito> I have restored the blacklist.conf to what it was, but also want to remove the RT3070 driver now.
[17:16] <guntbert> gaberlunzie: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/519304/
[17:16] <Kai696> thanks xangua
[17:16] <ActionParsnip> corrytonapple: this is the official ubunru support channel
[17:16] <xangua> corrytonapple: this is ubuntu support channel says the topic
[17:17] <Condorito> ActionParsnip: Yes, I compiled it with "make" & "install"
[17:17] <Fredrick> my dad wants me to do a duleboot on his mashine with windows so he can use itunes, abut he already has ubuntu, any ideas?
[17:17] <Cars10> how do i run a .deb file?
[17:17] <corrytonapple> OK thanks.
[17:17] <she_dyed> gaberlunzie: its normal
[17:17] <Fredrick> wouldnt that mess up grub?
[17:17] <donvitoo> i use phpsysinfo but when i go to check Distro name says Unknown how to fix that?
[17:17] <donvitoo> i use phpsysinfo but when i go to check Distro name says Unknown how to fix that?
[17:17] <ActionParsnip> Condorito: ok then read the readme in the folder and it will tell you how to install. I suggest in future if you compile that you use checkinstall and make a deb
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: can you give a pastebin of:  lsb_release -a
[17:18] <xangua> Fredrick: yesm you will have to restore it, the next time you do dualboot install windows first and then any other OS
[17:18] <dev00> hi im trying to reinstall vista first so i can put ubuntu second but after i install vista and it reboots i get a grub repair prompt
[17:18] <corrytonapple> Here is my problem: When I put my laptop to sleep, my OSS sound system wont play sound at all. How do I make it play sound?
[17:18] <donvitoo> ActionParsnip yes
[17:18] <gaberlunzie> guntbert: this is what i get: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519306/
[17:18] <Steven_Krebs> well there are workarounds. especially things like the super grub live cd which can repair grub
[17:18] <Fredrick> yea, hes been on ubuntu for a few monthes, and just now wants windows
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: i need the new address of the paste, so I can see the text
[17:18] <donvitoo> nertil@Maverick:~$ lsb_release -a
[17:18] <donvitoo> No LSB modules are available.

[17:18] <dev00> i dont want to repair grub
[17:18] <xpro> Hello!)
[17:18] <ActionParsnip> corrytonapple: restart the sound service
[17:18] <dev00> i want to remove it but when i format its still there
[17:18] <Fredrick> so i didn;t have that option, how would i restore grub after?
[17:18] <donvitoo> sorry
[17:19] <gaberlunzie> she_dyed: yea, i figured ..thanx
[17:19] <ace_steel> i m hving problems with a created panel on xfce environment.Can anyone help?
[17:19] <xangua> Cars10: just double clic on it, not a good idea install somethins is not from your repository
[17:19] <dev00> i cleared the whole drive and reformatted it to ntfs
[17:19] <dev00> still the grub shows up
[17:19] <xpro> RUSSIAN?)
[17:19] <corrytonapple> How do I do that ActionParnip? Google has not helped.
[17:19] <Steven_Krebs> the only way to remove grub is to purge grub using a live cd
[17:19] <xpro> PLEASW
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> corrytonapple: you may have to modprobe -r module   to unload the module, then re-modprobe it to wake up the hardware
[17:19] <xpro> PLEASE)
[17:19] <donvitoo> ActionParsnip did u get it
[17:19] <FloodBot3> xpro: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[17:19] <dev00> how do i do that
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: I said "Use a pastebin" not spam the channel
[17:19] <plob> i cannot install wine in 10.10
[17:19] <gaberlunzie> mnoyce: yep, probably it's a new behavior in firefox, as u described ... a launcher and spawned threads
[17:19] <Cars10> xangua: i need the debian install pack it saids
[17:19] <Stradenko> I can "modprobe nvidia-current" manually and X starts fine, but everything seems to be trying to load "nvidia.ko"  Anyone have thoughts on this?
[17:19] <xpro> chanel russian ubuntu please)
[17:19] <Steven_Krebs> google fu purge grub
[17:19] <corrytonapple> OK. Let me try both. The sound only works on a reboot as a note
[17:19] <donvitoo> im wrong
[17:19] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: yes I got it, you are using maverick
[17:19] <donvitoo> but did u get it?
[17:19] <donvitoo> yes
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: yes, but in future use a pastebin for large text outputs
[17:20] <xangua> Cars10: what are you trying to install, what version of ubuntu do you use¿
[17:20] <guntbert> gaberlunzie: so thats one less than here - but for the future you might want to get more info from ps (like I did with ps aux ....)
[17:20] <donvitoo> sorry
[17:20] <Condorito> ActionParsnip: must be this, then;  unload driver   "$/sbin/ifconfig ra0 down	$/sbin/rmmod rt3070sta"
[17:20] <brubelsabs> xpro: ubuntu-ru
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: so now you know what OS it is ;)
[17:20] <Condorito> Good advice. Thanks.
[17:20] <Fredrick> so i have to install windows, then the grub shows up, and i boot to ubuntu, uninstall with PURGE, the sudo apt-get grub?
[17:20] <Cars10> xangua: 10.10 core gnome installing virtualbox
[17:20] <ActionParsnip> Condorito: thats only to remove the module from being active
[17:21] <corrytonapple> The first command says "fatal error" and the other says command not found. I am using 10.04 on a Toshiba L455.
[17:21] <corrytonapple> Also, do I need to put the name of whom I am responding to?
[17:21] <donvitoo> ActionParsnip
[17:21] <xangua> Cars10: virtualbox is in repositories : sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose
[17:21] <ActionParsnip> corrytonapple: the commands I gave were skeleton ones, not exact commands
[17:21] <donvitoo> i know what os i use, the point is to fix the bug in phpsysinfo that shows that the os is unkwnown
[17:21] <donvitoo> bro
[17:22] <corrytonapple> Oh, what do I type then?
[17:22] <ActionParsnip> donvitoo: log a bug then
[17:22] <Cars10> xangua: ok thx
[17:22] <corrytonapple> I am OK with Ubuntu and Termnial, but not great.
[17:22] <pluviet> ciao
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> corrytonapple: if you run:  sudo lshw -C sound  you will see a driver line telling you the driver, you can then unload and reload it
[17:23] <Condorito> ActionParsnip: Ah, the driver seems to be in /etc/Wireless/RT3070STA. Sounds right?
[17:23] <ActionParsnip> Condorito: not sure, i dont compile drivers as my wireless works out of the box
[17:24] <guntbert> !it | pluviet
[17:24] <wildc4rd> evenin' all
[17:24] <corrytonapple> ActionParsnip: Which one is the driver?
[17:25] <wensleydale> hello. does anyone know how to save the output of '$ls /home/folder/' to a text file please?
[17:25] <pptfu> # Appears as HUGH
[17:25] <llutz> wensleydale: ls > ffile
[17:25] <hoare> guys I want to reduce space of "Applications-Places-System" widget. can I change those texts??
[17:25] <soreau> In firefox I use File>Print (to file)>PDF but in chromium-browser I am not seeing and 'File' etc. Where is it?
[17:25] <arrrghhh> anyone do multi-core video transcoding?
[17:25] <soreau> I am on a critical page I need to save right now
[17:25] <arrrghhh> wensleydale, > puts output to a file.
[17:25] <riddlebox> is it worth it to install 64bit?
[17:25] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: what was other one you suggested? going to /etc/what?
[17:25] <wensleydale> llutz thank you :-)
[17:25] <pptfu> (#G3::E010M1) holarhello
[17:25] <arrrghhh> wensleydale, >> will append to that file if it exists.
[17:25] <corrytonapple> Riddlebox: Yes, it is.
[17:26] <pptfu> (#G610E310M1) Ium
[17:26] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, /etc/network/interfaces & configuring it there.  a little tricker for wifi than with a wired cxn tho...
[17:26] <corrytonapple> How much RAM do you have?
[17:26] <guntbert> pptfu: stop that please
[17:26] <ActionParsnip> riddlebox: if you do a LOT of audio / video encoding then yes
[17:26] <wensleydale> arrrghhh aha i see, thanks :-)
[17:26] <riddlebox> corrytonapple: is the broadcom wireless cards supported 64bit?
[17:26] <xangua> hoare: remove it and add the gnome main menu applet
[17:26] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: I HATE to have to click "enable wireless" every single time
[17:27] <xangua> hoare: or you could just completly remove it and launch the menu with Alt+F1
[17:27] <metap0d> slashfoo: You don't, there is an option to connect automatically
[17:27] <ActionParsnip> slashfoo: i'd try wicd
[17:27] <guntbert> soreau: click on the tool icon on the right side for the menu
[17:27] <corrytonapple> Umm, I do not know. But, if it is on the site then yes.
[17:27] <hoare> xangua: what about places+system?
[17:27] <slashfoo> metap0d: oh please share where it is
[17:27] <corrytonapple> Or, try booting from the live CD to find out if it works.
[17:27] <hoare> xangua: oh nice applet
[17:28] <Condorito> Well, it is the same name as the one I installed.
[17:28] <soreau> guntbert: Thank you.
[17:29] <pptfu> (#G810E610M1) buhbye
[17:29] <slashfoo> metap0d: because I see how I can connect automatically to a network, BUT the thing is that wireless is disabled by default so...
[17:29] <Condorito> Oh. Okay. "make uninstall" from the directory I installed it from. This will remove the driver, correct?
[17:29] <k5673> Hello Yo! Somebody with a running strongswan server configured for roadwarriors? Like Hamachi?
[17:29] <metap0d> slashfoo: Well then ... I do not know lol :)
[17:30] <she_dyed> slashfoo: maybe it selects eth0 first even if nothing is connected (simply because it was detected)?
[17:31] <she_dyed> slashfoo: something like a checkbox saying, Always use this one first
[17:31] <slashfoo> she_dyed: let me check
[17:31] <masi> mec
[17:32] <slashfoo> on the eth0 I have connect to this network automatically thinguie, but I have the same thing on my SSID
[17:32] <hoare> xangua: ty
[17:32] <guntbert> k5673: how is that an ubuntu support question?
[17:32] <she_dyed> do you need it to connect, slashfoo ?
[17:32] <corrytonapple> So, which one is the driver of the output of the command sudo lshw -C sound
[17:33] <metap0d> For those of you with intergrated Intel graphics cards on your desktops/laptops ... how is the support in Linux/Ubuntu?
[17:33] <Stradenko> While trying to get X w/ nvidia drivers to work on boot (Maverick), I can "modprobe nvidia-current" manually and X starts fine, but everything seems to be trying to load "nvidia.ko"  during the boot process. Anyone have thoughts on this?
[17:33] <slashfoo> she_dyed: nope
[17:33] <Tinieblas> Hi! I'm argentina and write a little english. You could tell like I can see changes in file that I'm seeing, this in terminal.
[17:33] <slashfoo> she_dyed: so that's what's breaking my wireless?
[17:33] <corrytonapple> metap0d: It works well. Just as well as in windows.
[17:33] <she_dyed> slashfoo: maybe it's taking priority somehow and your wifi can't 'cut in'
[17:33] <Angelov> I just to  10.10 ver. and notise that I dont have internet can anyone tell me how to make my MAC address permanent again. I try modifing /etc/network/interfaces but still no Internet after rebooting.
[17:34] <slashfoo> she_dyed: will try that then
[17:34] <guntbert> Tinieblas: the command: diff  file1 file2
[17:34] <Kai696> No one on winehq is active..
[17:34] <metap0d> corrytonapple: Ah wonderful : )
[17:34] <Kai696> anyone know wine here ? ^^
[17:35] <corrytonapple> metap0d: What kind of laptop do you have?
[17:35] <Diamondcite> Kai696: I use wine, but know very little does it count? =P
[17:35] <Tinieblas> but is 2 file different, I can with a some file.
[17:35] <metap0d> corrytonapple: I just sold my laptop last night but I'm actually buying one in a few days and it looks like  (realistically) in my price range they will all come with the Intel HD intergrated graphics regardless of brand
[17:35] <avo> Hey all! How can I set my computer to resume from suspend with a keypress on my wired keyboard? Thanks!
[17:36] <Diamondcite> avo: I thought that behavious is standard.
[17:36] <Kai696> DiamondCite, maybe! I'm tryign to get Nlite to work in wine, I have it set as an executable and set it as a enabled app in wine conf but when i click on it, it beachballs and then doesn'topeanything
[17:36] <corrytonapple> avo: Does it not work now?
[17:36] <metap0d> corrytonapple: I could get a discrete Nvidia card but that would come with a last gen c2d .... I'd rather take the onboard graphics with an i5
[17:36] <corrytonapple> metap0d: What one are you looking at/
[17:36] <Diamondcite> Kai696: Have you checked the app DB listing? and how are you triggering it?
[17:36] <corrytonapple> I agree too
[17:37] <Diamondcite> Kai696: usually wine apps are run something more like "wine nlite.exe"
[17:37] <Kai696> Diamoncite : new here ^^ please explain ? (or go PM, since there is a log of in/out activity here ><)
[17:37] <avo> corrytonapple, Diamondcite, No, it does not work on either my Dell Desktop or my Apple iMac. Both of which function 100% otherwise under ubuntu, and can wake from suspend with keyboards under windows.
[17:38] <gervais> wie geht es euch?
[17:38] <laihan> hello
[17:38] <avo> Diamondcite, I assumed that functionality was standard, too.
[17:38] <corrytonapple> Are both the keyboards stock and what key are you hitting?
[17:38] <Diamondcite> corrytonapple, avo: Maybe suspend is cutting power to the USB keyboard on suspend, but I'm not sure how to NOT disconnect those on suspend.
[17:38] <laihan> hello everyone
[17:38] <gervais> hi
[17:39] <corrytonapple> My laptop works fine resuiming, but with my USB it does not work even with sleep-n-charge usb ports
[17:39] <avo> Diamondcite, That's what I would think. But shouldn't that be up to the hardware? And if it is, why should in work in non-Linux OSs?
[17:39] <guntbert> Kai696: you can tell your client to ignore/hide the join/part messages
[17:39] <guntbert> !de | gervais
[17:40] <marsfligth> Since few weeks I hear a strange background rustling like a couple of moses that bite something. Obviously, this happens when I am in the total silence with only my computer on. After few tests I discovered that if I switch-off the sound from the Gnome panel using the command "Mute All", the "mouses bite sound" it disappears. Than, now I know for sure that is a problem of the default Ubuntu sound manager, but I can't
[17:40] <marsfligth> understand how to fix it. Does someone experienced the same problem? I tried to search over the net, but using keywords like "mouses and bite" you imagine what I get ;) Just for informations, I use Ubuntu 10.04 - 32 bit - English on a desktop PC. Thanks
[17:40] <corrytonapple> guntbert: You would have to look in your clients settings I think
[17:40] <Diamondcite> avo: It should be configureable in the suspend options, but I have not played with that part of the system and I am unable to answer you.
[17:40] <arrrghhh> marsfligth, i noticed that when i had something silly turned up in alsamixer... like the mic or cd input :P
[17:40] <YG> hi, i need some help on how to make my lan faster for the wrt150n using dd-wrt?
[17:40] <guntbert> corrytonapple: obviously :-)  (I was giving a hint, not asking a question)
[17:41] <corrytonapple> YG: That is not possible without paying for it. Just my experience.
[17:41] <gervais> ciao
[17:41] <avo> Diamondcite, I see. Those suspend options don't have a GUI, I assume, right?
[17:41] <Condorito> Okay, final question. If I rrmod something, how do I go about restoring it?  eg: rmmod rt2870sta, how to undo that action, please?
[17:41] <plob> how to upgrade wine
[17:41] <Diamondcite> avo: I REALLY can't answer you since I have never played with them. But it's quite likely that it's a config file instead.
[17:42] <hardfire> i am not able to download the keys for ppa , and i think the gateway has blocked it .. is there a way around .. tried different servers but doesn't work
[17:42] <hardfire> any help?
[17:42] <avo> Diamondcite, Ah okay. Well thanks for your help anyhow!
[17:42] <Diamondcite> avo: I'll need to look up selective suspending to answer you.
[17:42] <Angelov> Does anyone knows how to make the MAC address permanent so I dont have to write "ifconfig eth0 hw ether 00:01:02:03:04:05" every time I start the ubuntu????
[17:42] <YG> cor pay for what, i do pay comcast?
[17:42] <Diamondcite> But I want my games right now ^_^
[17:42] <marsfligth> arrrghhh: Does exist a way to reset to default the Alsa Mixer?
[17:42] <corrytonapple> Pay them more for A higher speed. The more you pay, the more bandwith they give you.
[17:42] <Diamondcite> marsfligth: Pure default? Something go wrong?
[17:43] <hardfire> i am not able to download the keys for ppa , and i think the gateway has blocked it .. is there a way around .. tried different servers but doesn't work
[17:43] <hardfire> any help?
[17:43] <arrrghhh> marsfligth, uhm... what?  just hit alt-f2 and type 'gnome-terminal' - then in the new black window type 'alsamixer' and turn down stuff you don't need.
[17:43] <YG> oh ok thanks
[17:43] <guntbert> Angelov: NICs retain their MAC addresses anyway, you need not set them any time
[17:43] <arrrghhh> YG, are you having WAN or LAN bandwidth issues?
[17:44] <corrytonapple> YG: I think you can call them and tell them what you want. But, I also think it takes some time for them to move the speed up/
[17:44] <MAAAAD> does somebody use a bluetooth headset with Maverick?
[17:44] <happyface> how do I enable VNC through SSH?
[17:44] <marsfligth> arrrghhh: I have a look. Thank you for reading this strange help message
[17:44] <arrrghhh> corrytonapple, if your modem can handle it they can upgrade you almost immediately.  just a payload that's sent to the modem.
[17:45] <guntbert> Angelov: I never "had" to write the MAC address manually
[17:45] <hardfire> i am not able to download the keys for ppa , and i think the gateway has blocked it .. is there a way around .. tried different servers but doesn't work
[17:45] <hardfire> any help?
[17:45] <Diamondcite> hardfire: Why would your gateway block SOME addresses?
[17:45] <corrytonapple> arrrghhh: Just my experience. I use Comcast, and they lost the connection the first time it upgraded. And the last....
[17:45] <moes> Can i use teamviewer between windows xp and Lucid 10.04
[17:46] <hardfire> college sux !
[17:46] <Angelov> guntbert: the problem is when I run ifconfig my MAC address is not the one I have
[17:46] <hardfire> some cyberroam shitty going on !
[17:46] <arrrghhh> corrytonapple, lol.  yea they're a big faceless company.
[17:46] <Kai696> college != sux
[17:46] <hardfire> college > sux !
[17:46] <Kai696> hardfire = sux :)
[17:46] <Kai696> <3 lav you
[17:46] <arrrghhh> !ot guys
[17:46] <hardfire> Kai696,  >> sux !
[17:46] <Kai696> >.>
[17:46] <hardfire> oh! hehe
[17:46] <corrytonapple> arrrghhh: There customer support is better that others though.
[17:46] <guntbert> Angelov: that makes no sense, why do you care about the MAC address at all?
[17:46] <Kai696> :d
[17:46] <IdleOne> !ot | hardfire Kai696
[17:47] <tensorpudding> happyface: you need to start a VNC server on port 5900, then on the client side, you use ssh/putty to do a tunnel binding remote 5900 to local 5900, and then run your vnc client on localhost
[17:47] <Kai696> IdleOne ! since your here :( help me
[17:47] <hardfire> someone help me too !
[17:47] <Kai696> help me first !
[17:47] <spinningcompass> and me! :)
[17:47] <happyface> tensorpudding: I did that, but I had to use x11vnc instead of the remote desktop preferences in gnome
[17:47] <Diamondcite> hardfire: Where are you trying to download the keys from?
[17:47] <Angelov> guntbert:Coz if I dont change it with the one of my Cable modem I cant use internet
[17:47] <Kai696> Diamondcite > winHQ (appdb) says it should run fine btw
[17:47] <tensorpudding> happyface: though if you want VNC over SSH, it might be nicer to use NX instead of VNC, since it uses SSH without any other work
[17:48] <hardfire> initially  i used the add-apt-repository command
[17:48] <Angelov> The MAC address I have for the eth0 is not the same with the one of the Cable modem
[17:48] <Diamondcite> Kai696: So put "wine" before the executable and run it?
[17:48] <hardfire> then again used apt-key command changing the --keyserver
[17:48] <happyface> tensorpudding: yea I've used NX in the past, but it takes a lot of setup and I need to give support like NOW
[17:48] <ardit_> hey all ?
[17:48] <hardfire> but on no help
[17:48] <ardit_> how are you doing ?
[17:48] <ardit_> i m an ubuntu user
[17:48] <Kai696> I'm a Ubuntu user
[17:48] <Diamondcite> hardfire: Is this the first time trying? Did it used to work>
[17:48] <ardit_> i entered here because i wanna learn something about ubuntu
[17:48] <donvitoo> how to restart apache 2
[17:48] <happyface> tensorpudding: but I'm confused by the "remote desktop preferences" window doesn't enable VNC correctly
[17:48] <norstrom> anyone know how I can repair/replace the login console msg? Mine still states an update to 10.10 after I already have. as seen here: http://pastebin.com/UuRQ0Q8g
[17:49] <donvitoo> how to restart apache 2
[17:49] <Condorito> Whad'ya know. You can just locate all the pertinent files from the install and pull them out manually. Makes a welcome change from delving into HKEY registries. :D
[17:49] <hardfire> Diamondcite, m trying it since past 4/5 days .
[17:49] <Condorito> Thanks all. G'day!
[17:49] <donvitoo> how to restart apache 2
[17:49] <arrrghhh> donvitoo, sudo service apache2 restart
[17:49] <hardfire> used to work before i think !
[17:49] <vlada> I'm having problem with compiz not starting up upon reboot. I have to open terminal and execute "compiz --replace&" every time. Better solution, anyone?
[17:49] <guntbert> Angelov: ah, now I understand -- right click on the network-applett, select edit connections - choose your wireless connection, click properties (enter your pasword), and there you can enter the MAC address you want
[17:49] <Diamondcite> hardfire: And what does it say? "Connection Timed Out"?
[17:49] <tensorpudding> happyface: if you use the Remote Desktop Preferences to start VNC, can you get a connection locally?
[17:49] <arrrghhh> donvitoo, glad to see you can search before you beg.

[17:51] <ardit_> elnota: i was not flooding
[17:51] <arrrghhh> Kai696, nlite... what does that have to do with ubuntu?
[17:51] <guntbert> Angelov: the follow the same steps (except you select "wired" instead of "wireless")
[17:51] <ardit_> i think ubuntu rocks
[17:51] <happyface> tensorpudding: what's the service name?
[17:51] <Kai696> nlite on wine
[17:51] <hardfire> Diamondcite, anything ?
[17:51] <ElNota> ardit_: Right, but it check x lines per y seconds :)
[17:51] <Kai696> winehq channel is moot, no one is active so i asked here
[17:51] <Diamondcite> Kai696: I did send a PM but I wasn't answered
[17:52] <arrrghhh> Kai696, still don't see what this has to do with ubuntu.
[17:52] <Diamondcite> hardfire: Can you please give me the PPA in question
[17:52] <Kai696> well see ubuntu runs wine
[17:52] <ardit_> Elnota_:

[17:52] <arrrghhh> !enter | ardit_

[17:52] <ardit_> im using enter

[17:52] <ardit_> i can t send my message without enter
[17:52] <Diamondcite> Kai696: Please send me a PM :)
[17:52] <ardit_> what is the problem ?
[17:52] <Kai696> winehq which was suggested to me has no one active
[17:52] <hardfire> Diamondcite, tried lots of them docky2-stable, elementaryart/ppa , chromium-saily
[17:52] <ElNota> ardit_: Writte your problem in 1 line

[17:53] <arrrghhh> Kai696, not every app is going to work perfectly... besides, nlite on wine?  wtf?
[17:53] <Kai696> >< diamoncite, not sure how

[17:54] <corrytonapple> dev0: Hello too!
[17:54] <ardit_> ok vlada

[17:54] <vlada> ardit_, what's your problem exactly?
[17:54] <d3v0> i wiped the hdd clean and even used sudo apt-get purge from the ubuntu how-to
[17:54] <Angelov> guntbert: well thats the problem, when I made the changes in the applet , its creating new "Auto Ethernet" connection with the no MAC Address in it, and with the command #ifconfig I'm getting again different MAC address
[17:54] <hardfire> Diamondcite, the ppa are working fine, its the gateway that's blocking from downloading keys (i think) so i wanted to know a work around
[17:54] <d3v0> i still get grubrecover on boot
[17:54] <DragonKeeper> how can i extend my / partition if i cant unmount it as im using it ?
[17:55] <arrrghhh> Angelov, i don't see why you're getting so hung up on MAC addresses.

[17:57] <she_dyed> are you able to get into vista
[17:57] <d3v0> nah thats the problem

[17:58] <arrrghhh> ubuntuselur1, well wireshark is basically a memory leak :P  uhm you can't just reboot?
[17:58] <she_dyed> install vista d3v0 it will blow it away

[18:07] <slashfoo> she_dyed: well... I installed wicd and... well... now empathy (chat client) says I'm not connected when I don't have nm-applet managing connections :( also... the "eth0" not on automatic doesn't fix the issue
[18:07] <d3v0> ok
[18:07] <d3v0> i had ubuntu installed, wanted to install vista
[18:07] <she_dyed> nikolaj_basher: ls | less
[18:07] <d3v0> so i wiped ubuntu
[18:07] <d3v0> then installed vista
[18:07] <arrrghhh> d3v0, one line please
[18:07] <nikolaj_basher> she_dyed, nice thanks
[18:08] <d3v0> then booted up and get the message invalid partition recovergrub>
[18:08] <d3v0> cmd line
[18:08] <arrrghhh> d3v0, you should install ubuntu, then windows - in that order.  windows will knock out ubuntu otherwise.
[18:08] <marsfligth> arrrghhh: I fixed the problem via Console and Alsamixer like you suggested me. At the moment everything seems ok. Thanks for help me
[18:08] <arrrghhh> d3v0, sorry that's backwards.  windows then linux :S
[18:08] <Guest41252> arrgh...how do you check with livecd
[18:08] <she_dyed> slashfoo: why you need wicd when you have the other one
[18:08] <arrrghhh> marsfligth, no worries
[18:08] <d3v0> im trying to do this as we speak
[18:08] <d3v0> but when wipe the disk
[18:09] <slashfoo> she_dyed: because I want to NOT have to click "enable wireless" every single time I log in
[18:09] <apieceofcake> uh, hello
[18:09] <arrrghhh> Guest41252, download livecd, usb, etc and boot - you can boot a fully functional ubuntu without installing to your hdd.
[18:09] <d3v0> after i install windows i get the grubrecover msg , it doesnt boot up into vista i even tried purge
[18:09] <arrrghhh> !enter | d3v0
[18:09] <slashfoo> she_dyed: for some reason nm-applet has my wireless disabled at login
[18:09] <Stava> How can I configure Evolution not to quit when I close the application? I want to close/remove the window but still have it running in the background, in the Identicator Applet, just like Pidgin or Empathy
[18:10] <MeanEYE> Stava, there's an application called AllTray
[18:10] <she_dyed> slashfoo: have you looked to see if its config is stored at HOME or in /etc/nm* ?
[18:10] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, putting a static entry in the interfaces file didn't do the trick either?
[18:10] <she_dyed> i dont recall advising wicd
[18:11] <Stava> Evolution cant do it on its own? :(
[18:11] <slashfoo> arrrghh: haven't done that
[18:11] <Guest41252> arghhh...I went and installed directly to hdd....its a dell laptop...i have others...just wanted to try ubuntu...and its awesome.  Just cant pick up wifi
[18:11] <nikolaj_basher> she_dyed, nice thanks
[18:11] <destr0> hi there.
[18:11] <she_dyed> ur welcome nikolaj_basher
[18:11] <destr0> can someone help me with a little question i have
[18:12] <MeanEYE> Stava, not to my knowledge. It has app indicator support but once you hit X, it closes. With AllTray you can modify shortcut to start evolution minimized in system tray. Then if you hit X on it... it just minimizes back again.
[18:12] <apieceofcake> can i get help? I've been trying everywhere for one or two or more months...
[18:12] <AbhiJit> desti, sure if you asked the question
[18:12] <she_dyed> nikolaj_basher: its time to move away from the dos mindset, now that they've taken you out of hibernation
[18:12] <she_dyed> =)
[18:12] <AbhiJit> destr0,  sure if you asked the question
[18:12] <d3v0> lol i never thought id say this but i miss windows
[18:12] <cousteau> ok, this might be a bug. I install ubuntu-desktop with the option --no-recommends. Then, I install a program from ubuntu-desktop (say, empathy). This drags in a lot of dependencies. Then I uninstall empathy, and none of the dependencies are uninstalled, since they're recommended by ubuntu-desktop (even if ubuntu-desktop was installed with --no-recommends).
[18:12] <Steven_Krebs> evolution does not yet support the message indicator applet of ubuntu
[18:13] <Funhouse> http://twitter.com/Ubuntu_OS
[18:13] <nikolaj_basher> she_dyed, I know but it was the only way I could explains the commando I could'nt find :D
[18:13] <Stava> Steven_Krebs, is there any mail client that does? Thunderbird?
[18:13] <she_dyed> oh nikolaj_basher thats right to a non geek friend
[18:13] <Steven_Krebs> dunno
[18:13] <slashfoo> arrrghhh: all I want is that my wireless be enabled by default scanning for any/every SSID I may have saved before
[18:13] <slashfoo> at login
[18:14] <Steven_Krebs> my emails are a thing best organized on my smartphone
[18:14] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, i understand the problem.

[18:16] <Prabz> Hi, I'm not able to update and authenticate packages. I'm behind an institutional proxy, can't configure apt-get. Could anyone help?
[18:16] <chris|> Stava, no, it's a project
[18:16] <chris|> and there is a deb package there somewhere
[18:17] <arrrghhh> Prabz, did you setup the proxy to be global?
[18:17] <Stava> chris|, "does not have any download files registered with Launchpad." :o
[18:17] <xCruJonesx> im trying to get wintv pvr 500 to work with my computer, which player do you recommend for a newb? i've tried xawtv and vlc player but can't get anything to play with the test.mpg
[18:17] <Prabz> arrrghhh: How to do that? I'm using google-chrome, and i did click on the Set Global proxy button
[18:18] <arrrghhh> xCruJonesx, most setup mythtv or mythbuntu for tv cards...
[18:18] <arrrghhh> Prabz, in the network settings for ubuntu, nothing to do with chrome.
[18:18] <norstrom> xCruJonesx, also check out xbmc
[18:19] <dom96> will installing ubuntu using wubi on the same partition that windows is on cause problems?
[18:19] <Prabz> arrrghhh: also, we have a set of proxies, some of which are down at some time , depending on the time and place where I'm in. how to do it? could you guide?
[18:19] <kamaji> I don't suppose anyone's managed to boot a ubuntu livecd on a Macbook Air?
[18:19] <arrrghhh> Prabz, i'm not in ubuntu right now so not step-by-step... do you know how to get to the network config?  system -> admin ?
[18:19] <kamaji> live USB, even
[18:19] <xCruJonesx> thanks checking them out!
[18:20] <Prabz> that's what I'm struggling with..
[18:20] <Prabz> arrrghhh: That's what I'm struggling with, I'm not able to find a place where to change the global proxy settings
[18:20] <destr0> there is my question: (sorry if my english goes bad ) but, i'm new in linux and i have installed Backtrack4 for curiosity , and i liked it. but its difficult to me (win-sh1t user) even to install programs, because i don't understand the mechanism of files extensions or "how to install" and stuff... if everybody can help me with the "how's " about installing different files ... thanks (i'll get better in english i swear xD)
[18:20] <indio> Hi. Anyone experienced sound problems (no sound) with Ubuntu latest edition (Maverick Meerkat) in OO.o Impress? Thanks.
[18:21] <arrrghhh> Prabz, i know it's in the network settings... like i said system, administration, then i think it's just network configuration...?
[18:21] <Prabz> arrrghhh: there's no menu item by that name..
[18:22] <arrrghhh> Prabz, network <something> c'mon man work with me here :P

[18:23] <dom96> Anyone any ideas?
[18:23] <socomm> Anyone have similar problem?
[18:23] <slashfoo> arrrghhh, she_dyed: I tried gconf-editor on /apps/nm-applet, saw nothing there, any suggestions as to where should I look next?
[18:23] <she_dyed> slashfoo: lol try disabling eth0 in the bios
[18:23] <arrrghhh> socomm, hrm... don't use the volume button on your keyboard...?  :P
[18:23] <socomm> Well not just mouse but apparently everything else locks up, can't alt+tab or do any other keyboard shortcuts.
[18:23] <slashfoo> she_dyed: hahaha, no thanks :P
[18:23] <xCruJonesx> prabz, its under system preferences network proxy
[18:23] <Prabz> arrrghhh: There's network tools. In System>preferences, there is a Network connections menu , But then, i'd have to configure for 20-30 connections..
[18:23] <arrrghhh> slashfoo, well i gave my suggestions... if they didn't work, not sure TBh
[18:23] <she_dyed> slashfoo: not even for sh*ts and giggles?
[18:23] <socomm> arrrghhh: yes, keyboard volume button
[18:24] <schwaggg> im having problems installiong the drivers for my intel 82845g graphics card, can someone help please
[18:24] <arrrghhh> Prabz, you guys haven't heard of load balancing?  not sure what to tell you there, it's network connections for sure.
[18:24] <destr0> any volunteer for help a very-n00b
[18:24] <socomm> arrrghhh: lol that is not a solution
[18:24] <she_dyed> slashfoo: arrrghhh was onto something
[18:24] <slashfoo> she_dyed: that already gave me giggles so I'll leave it like that
[18:24] <guntbert> !backtrack | destr0  why don't you install ubuntu?
[18:25] <woeskwee> Running 10.10 my computer seems to go into some kind of sleep mode after about 5 minutes where the display turns off(black), even while watching videos, but the sound continues.  I set power management options to never, but that didn't do a thing.  If I move the mouse or push a button it prompts me to enter my password.  How do I disable this feature?
[18:25] <xCruJonesx> woeskwee its the screensaver
[18:25] <Prabz> arrrghhh , xCruJonesx: found it.. the proxy is configured there, , but I still am not able to update and authenticate packages. Synaptic update manager shows "Network error", even keyserver doesn't seem to work
[18:25] <norstrom> woeskwee, disable your screen saver?
[18:25] <schwaggg> im having problems installiong the drivers for my intel 82845g graphics card, can someone help please
[18:25] <woeskwee> that's funny
[18:26] <guntbert> woeskwee: system/prefernces/screensaver
[18:26] <arrrghhh> Prabz, i think there's a little checkbox that makes it global... did you see/check that box?
[18:26] <dev001> i want to submit an openssl-on-ubuntu bug.  but, @ Ubuntu launchpad says submit to OpenSSL's RT -- which I can't seem to get a post to :-/  Is there a "better place" in Ubuntu-space to post the bug?
[18:26] <guntbert> woeskwee: unselect "lock when ... active"
[18:27] <destr0> i think to install ubuntu , many friends said it's better to begin, but i like difficult things , i left windows with that idea. maybe i can practice with a virtual machine with ubuntu (maybe upside down)
[18:27] <Prabz> arrrghhh: There is a button to make it global. clicking it, asks for the root password, which i provided. Even then, I'm not able to update
[18:27] <destr0> but... u say in that channels i'll get more information?
[18:27] <arrrghhh> Prabz, hmmmmm that should've worked.  have you ruled out dns issues?
[18:27] <schwaggg> im having problems installiong the drivers for my intel 82845g graphics card, can someone help please
[18:27] <Prabz> arrrghhh: This happened only after upgrading to 10.10
[18:27] <guntbert> destr0: backtrack is *not for beginners*
[18:27] <brontoeee> destr0, ubuntu is not easy either if you come directly from win world
[18:28] <Prabz> arrrghhh: earlier it used to occur sometimes, but not very frequently
[18:28] <guntbert> !repeat | schwaggg
[18:28] <besogon> good evening. Can anybody help me with udev rule for touchpad (I need it as I have installed lubuntu)

[18:29] <Coolness> Hey guys wanna help me?
[18:29] <destr0> but , anyone can understand if he study right tutorials , maybe if i read some ubuntu tutorials then i'll get enough information
[18:30] <brontoeee> guntbert, just destroying the dreams of being able to use arch on the 1st day, whats wrong with that?
[18:30] <arrrghhh> !ask | Coolness
[18:30] <Coolness> Lol
[18:30] <Coolness> Okay
[18:30] <happyface> I installed sun-java6-jre for 10.10 but there's no firefox plugin, what do I do
[18:30] <Coolness> I get huge frames per second drop on Ubuntu compared to windows
[18:30] <arrrghhh> Coolness, using...?
[18:30] <guntbert> brontoeee: I read you were talking about ubuntu, were you not?
[18:31] <norstrom> Coolness, video? 3d? general desktop?
[18:31] <Coolness> Umm Ubuntu 10.4 now but upgrading to 10.10
[18:31] <destr0> but, i find a lot of tutorials and i need a good advice , what tutorials i must read first
[18:31] <Coolness> I mean games
[18:31] <Monnikje> I have a question. On my living room pc (old one - Abit NF7 motherboard) I have two new SATA 2TB hdd's installed, in raid 0. That should be 4 TB. But when I install ubuntu, it only sees a 2 TB hdd, calling it 2 TB striped and only wants to partition 2 TB. What must I do to get my striped configuration to work?
[18:31] <Prabz> arrrghhh: maybe something wrong with apt configuration? how to correct?
[18:31] <arrrghhh> Coolness, games... what games?  most games aren't native to linux.
[18:31] <guntbert> !manual | destr0 start there
[18:31] <Benkinooby> destr0, i think the first thing you need to know is how to use the packagemanagement of ubuntu
[18:31] <arrrghhh> Coolness, there are a lot of games native to linux, but they won't be familliar if you're used to windows.
[18:31] <destr0> thats right!
[18:32] <arrrghhh> Prabz, shouldn't be.  so long as apt it using a valid proxy, it should work.
[18:32] <Coolness> No i mean Savage2, and its definately playable on Ubuntu
[18:32] <Coolness> lots of people play it :=
[18:32] <happyface> I installed sun-java6-jre for 10.10 but there's no firefox plugin, what do I do
[18:32] <Prabz> arrrghhh: update manager shows: Requires installation of untrusted packages  The action would require the installation of packages from not authenticated sources.
[18:32] <hardfire> is there any help for this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/443404

[18:35] <cowboysaif> guys how is 10.10 ?
[18:35] <arrrghhh> Prabz, you have to authenticate any repo that's not 'part-of' ubuntu...
[18:35] <cowboysaif> should i stick to 10.04?
[18:35] <arrrghhh> cowboysaif, awesome try it on a livecd :D

[18:36] <Prabz> arrrghhh, how to determine which keys need to be downloaded?
[18:36] <arrrghhh> Prabz, hm... paste that output.
[18:36] <schwaggg> im having problems installiong the drivers for my intel 82845g graphics card, can someone help please
[18:37] <arrrghhh> Prabz, it should say (i thought)
[18:37] <cowboysaif> but i made so much modification on 10.04 and actually distributed among my frnds. and now if i find 10.10 is more interesting i have to burn those dvd :P
[18:37] <Coolness> Umm so i install the ones from the nVdia website after my upgrade finishes
[18:37] <Coolness> Ill let you know, thanks!
[18:37] <cowboysaif> intel 82845 damn this is my mb
[18:37] <cowboysaif> no prob here
[18:37] <norstrom> Coolness, yeah you'll need to redo it everytime theres a kernel update but worth the performance
[18:37] <cowboysaif> intel has open source drivers
[18:38] <Coolness> norstrom, what do you mean?
[18:38] <Prabz> arrrghhh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/519340/
[18:38] <Coolness> reinstall the drives after each kernel update?
[18:38] <Coolness> :(
[18:38] <arrrghhh> Coolness, nvidias kernel drivers can get knocked out with kernel updates.
[18:38] <Coolness> okay
[18:39] <norstrom> Coolness, I run nVidia's here and I need to reinstall(build) the drivers everytime theres a kernel update for linux
[18:39] <Coolness> So how about i just dont install the kernel updates :D
[18:39] <cowboysaif> ok , can i update my kernel in 10.04 by soft repo ?
[18:39] <arrrghhh> Prabz, says it can't resolve host.  can you ping keyserver.ubuntu.com?
[18:39] <cowboysaif> just a wild thought :D
[18:39] <arrrghhh> Coolness, your call.
[18:39] <Prabz> yes, I can open it in the browser
[18:39] <IDWMaster> I don't like the direction Ubuntu is taking with it's new 'paid software' in the Software Center. I'm now seeing proprietary software alongside regular search results. Proprietary software should be separate from the regular search listings. Shouldn't there be a way to disable this category?
[18:39] <Coolness> arrrghhh, does it have a significant downside?
[18:39] <Prabz> arrrghhh: yes, i can open it in the browser
[18:39] <csmith1994> if you're going to update your kernel, coolness, why not just update your version to 10.10?
[18:39] <skrite_> i am looking for something that will show me all my hardware. I need some info about my motherboard and hard drives.
[18:40] <arrrghhh> Prabz, that's not what i asked...
[18:40] <hardfire> is there any help for this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/443404
[18:40] <Coolness> I am upgrading my version to 10.10 csmith1994
[18:40] <arrrghhh> Coolness, well you won't get kernel updates... you knew that i figured tho.
[18:40] <norstrom> Coolness, trust me, do any updates that come.
