[14:53] <rabidweezle> A quick note to linux gamers out there, do *not* buy the unreal anthology dvd EVEN THOUGH it has a picture of tux, and linux is supported it says on the box, it isn't, it has no linux installer, or binaries, and you can't even access the files in linux.
[14:54] <EF_Codd> then you basically get a "link" to the extended partition table that describes the first logical partition on the disk
[14:54] <SingAlong> anyone?
[14:54] <rabidweezle> SingAlong: yes, use a gparted livecd
[14:54] <EF_Codd> Because these devices don't use the cards to boot, they don't need to have a primary partition set to bootable
[14:55] <geirha> SingAlong: You can boot with the USB-stick you installed UNR from, and run gparted from that.
[14:55] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: any doc or tutorial you could point me to? (i have a netbook. so can i use my usb instead?)
[14:55] <rabidweezle> SingAlong: Gparted is pretty simple, trust me, basically it's all gui
[14:55] <geirha> SingAlong: Do you have the model with 8GB SSD disk?
[14:55] <SingAlong> geirha: nah! acer aspire one 160gb
[14:55] <SingAlong> geirha: with 1gb ram
[14:56] <mini-man> erm, not sure if this is the right channel to ask but... does anyone have a link to the _specific_ patches used to make gnome-settin-daemon (i believe that's the package that handles the volume notification?) work with notify-osd?
[14:56] <rabidweezle> SingAlong: intel video?
[14:56] <mini-man> been googling for hours, looking at patches.ubuntu.com, but can't find anything
[14:56] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: ya i think so. it uses an intel atom processor
[14:56] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: why?
[14:56] <geirha> SingAlong: Hm. Odd that it used so low ammount of space then.
[14:56] <rabidweezle> SingAlong: I wouldn't mind a netbook, but I would rather die than play with a intel GMA :(
[14:57] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: i just use it for web dev
[14:57] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: on the run. otherwise its always the usual ubuntu 9.04 on my desktop
[14:58] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: i just borrowed my dad's extra netbook :) so i didnt want to destroy the win copy it came with.
[14:58] <rabidweezle> SingAlong: Gparted is pretty easy to work with, it's alot like partition magic
[14:58] <EF_Codd> I got a Asus 1000HE netbook. I didn't think it would be, but it's the best computer I've bought lol
[14:58] <SingAlong> rabidweezle: do i just have to boot the netbook with gparted in it?
[14:58] <EF_Codd> i hardly use my "real" laptop anymore
[14:59] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: you like it so much?
[14:59] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: what apps do you use normally?
[14:59] <slayton> SingAlong, if you have a live CD just use that, it has gparted installed on it, and has a better UI
[14:59] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: You should see my Compaq cq60-215dx :) Nvidia 8200M G, plays enemy territory Quake Wars quite well
[14:59] <EF_Codd> SingAlong yeah, I can just chuck it in my bag and take it to university and have it run for 9 hours on the battery
[14:59] <slayton> SingAlong, click system->Admin-->Partition Editing
[14:59] <SingAlong> slayton: oh you mean the UNR live CD? ya i have the UNR in a bootable usb right now.
[14:59] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle well, I have a gaming rig to play games
[15:00] <ancanta> hi, i use Evolution and the last 2 days gives me a msg : "Error while Fetching Mail" , any ideas pls ?i didnt change any preferences...
[15:00] <slayton> SingAlong, not sure about UNR, but I know that the full Ubuntu distros have it
[15:00] <SingAlong> slayton: oh unr doesnt have it. any command to access that via terminal?
[15:00] <EF_Codd> SingAlong the thing I use the most is Visual Studio 2008 with windows, and eclipse/netbeans/various compilers when using linux. Nothing too heavy
[15:01] <EF_Codd> I stopped playing games about 2 years ago when I started my Masters :)
[15:01] <geirha> SingAlong: Boot with the USB and see. gparted doesn't get installed by default, by the live session has it (at least the liveCDs)
[15:01] <rabidweezle> visual studio still doesn't work in wine ehh?
[15:01] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: eclipse is heavy! i had to upgrade my comp to 3gb ram to run it happily while playing music and surfing. :)
[15:01] <geirha> SingAlong: You can't do it from the install itself, since all partitions must be unmounted when you want to resize
[15:01] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle I don't bother with wine. I just dual boot
[15:02] <innomen> Hey guys, haveing a bluetooth issue Method "Get"CurrentPath" with signature "" on Interface "org.openobex.Session" doesn't exist
[15:02] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: yeah, it's not stable enough for a coding enviroment unless you are like me and just use notepad++ :D
[15:02] <EF_Codd> SingAlong I guess it depends how you have it configured ... I have no probs. It is more bloated than VS 2008 though lol
[15:02] <SingAlong> geirha: oh i guess i'll just install gparted on the usb and get going. should do right?
[15:02] <ugur> hi all, how can i safely disable nepomuk indexing service?
[15:03] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle vim ftw
[15:03] <innomen> rebooting unpairing deleteing repairing etc all work, have done them all, it works pretty much at random
[15:03] <geirha> SingAlong: It should be on the USB, but if it isn't, you can just install it in the live session, yes.
[15:03] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: ya it worked. but i havent tried eclipse on my AAO netbook yet. just been configuring and setting it up since yesterday
[15:03] <innomen> how can i fix this problem without rebooting my machine?
[15:03] <SingAlong> geirha: oh unr-live has gparted? how do i access it?
[15:04] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: Vim isn't bad, but notepad++ is a dream at finding errors
[15:04] <geirha> SingAlong: System -> Administration -> Partition editor
[15:04] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle little hard to use via ssh :)
[15:04] <SingAlong> geirha: no that isnt available on unr
[15:04] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: true
[15:04] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: then again, I don't do my coding from ssh
[15:04] <EF_Codd> I really thought netbooks were a waste of time before I got one
[15:05] <SingAlong> geirha: i'm on my ubuntu 9.04 desktop and have my netbook running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.04 right next to me
[15:05] <grawity> rabidweezle: notepad++ is hard to use over ssh? nonsense.
[15:05] <dab_> Ileden: sox doesnt seem to support .wma :(
[15:05] <EF_Codd> lol here he comes again
[15:05] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd said it grawity, not me
[15:05] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: i loved netbooks only aftre i saw my dad happily carrying one instead of his laptop.
[15:05] <geirha> SingAlong: Have you booted from the harddrive or the UNR-USB? gparted doesn't get installed by default, but should be installed on the USB
[15:05] <Ileden> dab_: yeah, coild be. :( wma is a bit troublesome with open source... patent stuff an all that
[15:06] <EF_Codd> SingAlong yeah, like me. The thinkpad seems like a brute now lol
[15:06] <rabidweezle> I don't use ssh for but 1 thing myself, and that's maintaining my server
[15:06] <dab_> ah yeah Ileden :( , All im looking to do is burn the files to a CD, but k3b wont let me unless its mp3
[15:06] <plazia> Does anyone know which plugin setting it is in compiz/compiz-fusion that keeps showing all windows on the desktop when I move my mouse to the top edge? It's bloody annoying ;)
[15:06] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle I use it all the time
[15:06] <SingAlong> geirha: will boot in around 2 min. i was installing JDK
[15:06] <gigglefight> help. just installed Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on Mac PowerPC G4 my goal is to convert .dmg to a bootable .iso disk would like to install or try to install Mac os x 10.5 I only have .dmg files to work with.
[15:06] <Ileden> I'm loving my netbook too! In fact, the problem I'm trying to fix is related to this - trying to get Aspire One suspend correctly with the SD-card.
[15:07] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: Like if I'm coding, I code on my laptop, then commit the changes via ftp
[15:07] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: I'm going to buy one of those foldable USB keyboards to carry around. the keys on my Acer Aspire One are too small and not comfy.
[15:07] <gigglefight> I have looked into the forums and followed many instructions including dmg2iso dmg2img
[15:07] <SingAlong> gigglefight: why 6.06 when there's 9.04?
[15:07] <EF_Codd> SingAlong yeah, that's why I chose the 1000HE. I actually type faster than at my normal keyboard
[15:07] <roel> s
[15:07] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: you've got bigger keys?
[15:07] <Ileden> dab_: could be there's a way to use wma with sox, but it might be only available from more shady sources. Shady not meaning there's antyhing morally worng from my viewpoint, that is.
[15:08] <rabidweezle> SingAlong: they make those keyboard "rolls" and another I saw that was cool was a laser keyboard that puts the keys on a desk
[15:08] <rabidweezle> thinkgeek had the latter
[15:08] <EF_Codd> SingAlong it's 94% of full keyboard, with chicklet keys. And yes, the keyboard is bigger than the Acer
[15:08] <gigglefight> my guess is that a) the file is corrupt b) can't convert in Mac PPC c) I'm not trying hard enough  (honestly, I haven't had any sleep, please help)
[15:08] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle heh my coding can be anything from C++ to Haskell to Java to lisp on any day
[15:08] <rabidweezle> My laptop has a full keyboard and numpad though
[15:09] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: wow.
[15:09] <Ileden> EF_Codd: gparted shows the devices a unallocated space
[15:09] <gigglefight> I will repeat: running Ubuntu 6.06 LTS on PPC g4 Mac . thanks.
[15:09] <rabidweezle> EF_Codd: All I code in is C# .net
[15:09] <EF_Codd> different professors have different favourite languages
[15:09] <bluebaron> anyone know what I need to do to get my " Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc RV620 Audio device [Radeon HD 34xx Series]" working?
[15:09] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle ah ....
[15:09] <SingAlong> geirha: i now rebooted. i got the usual ubuntu menu on reboot. what option do i select now?
[15:09] <gigglefight> I've tried booting and pressing C key
[15:09] <Ileden> EF_Codd but I guess that makes sense since it probably doesn't have a partition table at all.
[15:09] <EF_Codd> Ileden oh well. When are you formatting that puppy?
[15:09] <geirha> gigglefight: 6.06 isn't supported anymore. Only the server is
[15:09] <Lartza_> What could cause system freezes when accessing files? Usually moving/deleting big files or lots of files freezes ubuntu.
[15:10] <lneves> I all
[15:10] <gigglefight> geirha k. what are my options. from here?
[15:10] <geirha> SingAlong: System -> Admin. -> Partition editor
[15:10] <rabidweezle> Lartza_: I get slowdown when deleting "mass" ammounts of files
[15:10] <SingAlong> geirha: from live?
[15:10] <Shady> what's wrong with being shady Ileden?
[15:10] <gigglefight> which Ubuntu to use on Power PC? G4
[15:10] <geirha> gigglefight: upgrade to 8.04
[15:11] <SingAlong> geirha: k. loading live. (i used the try ubuntu without install option)
[15:11] <EF_Codd> rabidweezle at least you didn't say you coded in VB.Net
 BUt this freezes my pc
[15:11] <rabidweezle> !ppc|gigglefight
[15:11] <kfan> what do you type in terminal to refresh video it seems my video card is messed up
[15:11] <gigglefight> via Synaptic Package... thingamagiggy?
[15:11] <Lartza_> ANd it can happen with torrents for instance
[15:11] <xover> i want to setup a network with a small number of ubuntu desktops, is there a way that i can automate the updates?
[15:11] <geirha> SingAlong: Ah, that menu, yes, that option.
[15:11] <gigglefight> I looked into the forum... couldn't find answers.
[15:11] <lneves> Help required: In my laptop amd64 ubuntu ISOs don't boot since 8.10 (8.04 boots ok)
[15:12] <rabidweezle> Lartza_: strange!
[15:12] <mothas> I'm thinking of installing a new OS on my main workstation - what's the current best version to use?
[15:12] <gigglefight> the G4 doesn't have an Intel or AMD processor.... it's a motorola
[15:12] <gigglefight> :(
[15:12] <grawity> mothas: There is no "best".
[15:12] <SingAlong> geirha: yes. the live version has partition editor
[15:12] <rabidweezle> I thought ppc was... ibm?
[15:12] <kfan> what do you type in terminal to refresh video it seems my video card is messed up
[15:12] <Lartza_> grawity: There is in version, the latest
[15:12] <lneves> Also, after upgrading 8.04 to 8.10 and 9.04, I can't boot with 2.6.28 kernels. Only with 2.6.24
[15:12] <Lartza_> kfan: You press certain keys
[15:12] <EF_Codd> grawity there is a recommended version of ubuntu to install
[15:13] <gigglefight> maybe so, just to mention, it's not Intel or AMD...
[15:13] <Lartza_> kfan: SysRQ + Alt + K
[15:13] <mothas> Well, OK.  I'm trying to avoid stuff like the Pulseaudio pain (unless its really working now), unstable Xorg versions, etc.
[15:13] <SingAlong> geirha: i got a nice little gui. although, where do i find the resize option?
[15:13] <gigglefight> processor maybe by motorola... this computer is from 2003 or so...
[15:13] <kfan> thanks
[15:13] <rabidweezle> yeah, pulseaudio has been a thorn for many people
[15:13] <rabidweezle> mothas: ^^
[15:13] <geirha> SingAlong: the live session may decide to use swap partitions on the harddrive. Make sure to unmount it (right click any key-icon in gparted)
[15:14] <Lartza_> gigglefight: The processor maker matters in what way?
[15:14] <Lartza_> It's a PowerPC
[15:14] <EF_Codd> mothas yes, install the latest stable, Jaunty 9.04
[15:14] <geirha> SingAlong: Then the resize options should be ungreyed
[15:14] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: a ppc is a ppc
[15:14] <SingAlong> geirha: yes. turned off swap now.
[15:14] <gigglefight> okay.
[15:14] <mothas> EF_Codd: Is 9.04 more stable than 8.04 ?
[15:14] <SingAlong> mothas: ofcourse :)
[15:15] <EF_Codd> mothas 9.04 is the latest stable release. So yes :)
[15:15] <Lartza_> Could ubuntu freeze when accessing hard drive because of ext4 format??
[15:15] <Lartza_> :S
[15:15] <SingAlong> mothas: 8.04 has 3yrs support. x.10 versions have 5yrs support. LTS versions
[15:15] <gigglefight> therefore the 9.04 ubuntu would work on the PPC?
[15:15] <gigglefight> would the 9.04 work fine?
[15:16] <EF_Codd> mothas the short answer is get 9.04
[15:16] <rabidweezle> if it's the ppc version
[15:16] <triplc> Hi all
[15:16] <rabidweezle> every architecture has to download their version of ubuntu
[15:16] <triplc> I cannot open Encfs folder (which was just working before shutdown and login). It say "Transport endpoint is not connected" after encfs mount and trying to open the folder. looks like it's because of fuse or something. but i donot know how to shoot the problem. if any one know, please tell me a hint.
[15:16] <SingAlong> now this is why i like ubuntu. everything is just beautifully possible.
[15:16] <gigglefight> link please to ppc version of 9.04
[15:16] <gigglefight> thanks.
[15:16] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> jaunty (9.04) is the first release I've used that my laptop hasn't had a single issue with...well, WEP/64 being an exception
[15:16] <trupheenix1> anyone got bright ideas to install MySQL 5.1 on Jaunty server?
[15:16] <Lartza_> Yea where can you get ppc 9.04??
[15:16] <triplc> (i am not using ubuntu, but i see ubuntu irc has many people so i go and ask, sorry if i nbother you)
[15:17] <mothas> SingAlong: No offense intended here, but there's no of-course to it.  When they first introduced Xorg, Pulseaudio, and a few other things, there were problems that took a few versions to work out.
[15:17] <tipote> Hi all. I am suffering from bug #342782 (python-qwt5-qt4 will not install on Jaunty). Thus I am trying to install pyqwt from source.
[15:17] <Lartza_> gigglefight: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/jaunty/release/
[15:17] <SingAlong> mothas: ya. agree. but there's always a fix being worked on. :)
[15:17] <gigglefight> thanks :)
[15:17] <EF_Codd> unless the project is abandoned lol
[15:17] <mothas> SingAlong: True.
[15:18] <tipote> Everything goes correcly, but when I try to do "import PyQt4.Qwt5" in python, I get "No module named Qwt5". Any idea ?
[15:18] <gigglefight> will do. but then my next question: is it possible to return to mac os x 10.5 from ubuntu?
[15:18] <gigglefight> just curious.
[15:18] <kfan> is there anything i can type to refresh video because i dont have  sysrq button
[15:19] <SingAlong> which file system is better? ext3 or ext4?
[15:19] <mothas> SingAlong: The task I have at and though is to install an OS on a production system.  It can't have anything major that is being still worked out; I don't mind configuring it, but it has to just work once I'm done.
[15:19] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: with the install cd I'm guessing, unless they let you dual boot on mac
[15:19] <SingAlong> b/w can linux write to ntfs?
[15:19] <EF_Codd> SingAlong yes
[15:19] <SingAlong> mothas: server?
[15:19] <rabidweezle> dunno if grub works on mac like that
[15:19] <clearscreen> SingAlong: ntfs-3g :)
[15:20] <trupheenix1> anyone got ideas for installing MySQL 5.1 on Ubuntu Jaunty Server?
[15:20] <SingAlong> EF_Codd: are you using ext3 or ext4? suggestions on which is better?
[15:20] <rabidweezle> I have never owned but the first ever mac with the m68k
[15:20] <grawity> SingAlong: ntfs-3g module, comes with Ubuntu, has nearly perfect NTFS support (for most)
[15:20] <gigglefight> ragidweezle: how so?
[15:20] <EF_Codd> SingAlong I use ext4 with no problems
[15:20] <kfan> how do you refresh video i thru terminal?
[15:20] <EF_Codd> anyway, have to go
[15:20] <gigglefight> rabidweezle: whoa... now that's an antique... don't like mac...
[15:20] <_pedda_> hi there
[15:20] <EF_Codd> grawity oh, you're a tool by the way
[15:21] <EF_Codd> ciao :)
[15:21] <SingAlong> grawity: k. i'll use ext4 for 20gb and another 20gb of ntfs. i already have 101gb for windows (for what they call the C drive) :)
[15:21] <_pedda_> i need a keyword for research on google about how to create a preconfigured ubuntu installation cd..
[15:21] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: I like getting what I pay for, but not paying for a name
[15:21] <gigglefight> downloading 9.04 for PowerPC at the moment.
[15:21] <grawity> SingAlong: How about using all 40 for ext4? :|
[15:21] <rabidweezle> hence why I don't own a mac
[15:21] <_pedda_> is there an application or method i should google for ?
[15:21] <gigglefight> I didn't buy this mac. LOL.
[15:21] <gigglefight> I inherited it... eww.
[15:21] <triplc> I cannot open Encfs folder (which was just working before shutdown and login). It say "Transport endpoint is not connected" after encfs mount and trying to open the folder. looks like it's because of fuse or something. but i donot know how to shoot the problem. if any one know, please tell me a hint. (question re-asked)
[15:21] <csaba> is there a good c++ editor for gnome?
[15:22] <kfan> how do you refresh video i thru terminal?
[15:22] <mothas> SingAlong: workstation.  Not a personal computer though; has 8-disk raid, multiple monitors, and usually multiple users (via ssh X-sessions).
[15:22] <grawity> With Linux, you get what you pay for - unless you paid for it.
[15:22] <grawity> csaba: vim, emacs, gedit
[15:22] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: I figured, it's kinda old
[15:22]  * triplc feeling so so hopeless
[15:22] <rabidweezle> g5's that is
[15:22] <csaba> gravity: I don't like gedit, and vim and emacs aren't gnome
[15:22] <JonJ_> csaba: Or if you want an IDE there's anjuta
[15:22] <SingAlong> mothas: oh
[15:22] <SingAlong> mothas: pretty mission critical
[15:22] <csaba> JonJ_: I'll check it out thanks
[15:23] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> this room moves rapidly, be patient and if you have to, ask more than once, but wait a bit in between requests...
[15:23] <SingAlong> mothas: but i dont think you'll ned xorg or any other fancy stuff for that i guess?
[15:23] <SingAlong> mothas: some kinda local server?
[15:23] <gigglefight> I'd like to preform miracles. Is it possible to install Ubuntu 9.04 then Mac OS again. (possible leopard)
[15:23] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> I'm unable to help, I'm an ubuntu newb.  I'm learning tho
[15:23] <clay> when I try to bring up places>home  I keep get cervisia errors. How do I fix this?
[15:23] <gigglefight> I installed ubuntu just to undo the password junk that mac os gives me.
[15:23] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: no os change is perminant
[15:23] <gigglefight> on mac?
[15:24] <rabidweezle> on any os
[15:24] <grawity> gigglefight: if you have the OS X disc - it's easy to install it.
[15:24] <rabidweezle> I can install mac os on this non mac laptop if I wanted to
[15:24] <grawity> rabidweezle: that's not the point.
[15:24] <gigglefight> my friend who owns a mac laptop has a problem installing operating system because of password stuff from madc.
[15:24] <gigglefight> mac
[15:24] <mothas> SingAlong: More or less - it records video and lets folks edit it and send it to remote monitors.
[15:24] <gigglefight> I had no problem with the password issue when I installed ubuntu. :)
[15:24] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: like a bios password?
[15:25] <gigglefight> um... Admin password or something like that...
[15:25] <gigglefight> I haven't seen his system.
[15:25] <ZOO0828> SingAlong:  ext4 is definitely faster and better than ext3 which also enables some linux distros to possibly boot into desktop within 20 seconds, only one thing might concern you is that other distros without ext4 support will not be able to read ext4 filesystem
[15:25] <gigglefight> I mentioned to him to install ubuntu. :)
[15:26] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: did he buy his laptop second hand?
[15:26] <clearscreen> ZOO0828: is it really that much faster? I havent noticed a big difference between the two..
[15:26] <mothas> SingAlong: It needs Xorg, yes.  The issue is that it's currently running 8.04 with backports and has developed instability - some apps don't display on the right screens anymore (or any screen as far as I can tell).
[15:26] <thiebaude> ZOO0828, i wonder if the next LTS will have ext4 by default?
[15:26] <gigglefight> nope... he's a comp tech.. who doesn't know anything about mac.
[15:26] <gigglefight> it's his friend's
[15:26] <ZOO0828> clearscreen   not that much,  :)  at least my crunchbang still boot in 40 seconds
[15:27] <ZOO0828> maybe only in theory
[15:27] <lneves> quit
[15:27] <gigglefight> k. how to open .dmg files on ubuntu?
[15:27] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> 9.04 is a tad faster than 8.10 was on this machine, both being 64 bit
[15:27] <ZOO0828> thiebaude  possible,  :)   and hope so
[15:27] <SingAlong> geirha: i turned off swap. but i cannot resize swap partition. although now i ahve 80gb freespace and am able to create new logical partitions.
[15:27] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: Ahh, yeah, there's a lot of people how there that know nothing about macs, just because well, they aren't even as mainstream as linux to some.
[15:27] <thiebaude> ZOO0828, yep
[15:28] <archman> today i updated my gnome-terminal and i was hoping that the "gnome-terminal: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libvte.so.9: undefined symbol: pango_layout_get_baseline" will disappear. any help? why's it happening. it started to happen when i upgraded to jaunty. it just doesn't work anymore.
[15:28] <gigglefight> do I convert them .dmg to .iso then boot the computer holding the c key and all that jazz?
[15:28] <thiebaude> ZOO0828, but its so tempting to order that 9.10 cd
[15:28] <ZOO0828> thiebaude:   why not
[15:29] <gigglefight> rabidweezle: amazingly disney uses mostly mac, from what I hear... omg!
[15:29] <SingAlong> geirha: np i got it. i had to take care of the preceeding space setting
[15:29] <gigglefight> the horror.
[15:29] <thiebaude> ZOO0828, i'll order, because i have all the others since 6.06
[15:29] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> only thing I find good about macs is audio apps.
[15:29] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: Most movie companies and music companies do
[15:29] <thiebaude> just in case
[15:29] <ZOO0828> thiebaude    you are really into ubuntu ,, aren't you...  lol
[15:30] <gigglefight> My friend's opinion, Premiere pro is just as good as Final Cut PRo
[15:30] <ZOO0828> BRB
[15:30] <Aijse> How can I fetch covers for albums that are on my iPod? And how can I Scrobble plays from my iPod to last fm? This all concerns Amarok 2.1
[15:30] <rabidweezle> ZOO0828: I order them just for the stickers lol
[15:30] <thiebaude> ZOO0828, yea, i've been back and forth between bug#1 but i'll stay here
[15:30] <Aijse> sorry wrong chatbox
[15:30] <gigglefight> oh yeah.. is it possible to run CS3 or CS4 on Ubuntu?
[15:30] <mothas> SingAlong: Thanks for the advice anyway - I may give 9.04 a whirl.  I'm just gun shy about regressions, after the ones in XrandR & Compiz.
[15:30] <gigglefight> how to go about that?
[15:30] <Lartza_> ext4 lockups and freezes are common problem?? o.O
[15:31] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: with wine I think you can, but I can't be certain, check the wine appdb
[15:31] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> easy question:  is there a way to change the date format?
[15:31] <rabidweezle> !appdb > gigglefight
[15:31] <gigglefight> I'm making a not of it.
[15:31] <gigglefight> thanks.
[15:31] <garymc> Hi i need help removing my flash player and getting the right one installed. Im running ubuntu 9.04
[15:31] <SingAlong> mothas: compiz needs a good graphics card i think so.
[15:31] <rabidweezle> garymc: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:32] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> date is in mm/dd/yyyy, I want to change it to dd-mmm-yyyy  is that easy to accomplish?
[15:32] <garymc> yeah got that one but its messing my sound up and doesnt play right
[15:32] <gigglefight> does wine work on mac g4?
[15:32] <x[x]> lads.. whats it mean if the screen usually goes blank on any ubuntu live cd installtion or hd installtion or ubuntu 8.04 8.10 nubuntu and Backtrack 4?
[15:32] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: yep
[15:32] <RHorse> garymc what fp you have now?
[15:32] <grawity> gigglefight: Is the G4 using an Intel CPU?
[15:32] <archman> so this terminal problem is unsolvable? :(
[15:32] <rabidweezle> G4 is PPC
[15:32] <garymc> i think its flash nonfree
[15:33] <gigglefight> if I fit in the entire CS3 into the system, do you think it'll slow it down?
[15:33] <RHorse> garymc ok first you have to uninstall it
[15:33] <mothas> SingAlong: compiz needs to be removed.  It's pretty, but very limited for multi-user setups.
[15:33] <gigglefight> nope. it's not an Intel CPU for sure...
[15:33] <psam> hello
[15:33] <grawity> gigglefight: Wine only emulates the Windows APIs, not the entire CPU. If you don't have an x86 CPU, Wine won't work. (Or at least I highly doubt it will work.)
[15:33] <psam> i need help to get a usb modem to work
[15:33] <gigglefight> aww.
[15:33] <garymc> how i did sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree and i still had it
[15:34] <SingAlong> mothas: cannot agree more. compiz has no job in a workstation
[15:34] <garymc> Rhorse : ^^
[15:34] <rabidweezle> I could have sword I had a friend with a g5 that had wine working o_O, but you are probably right
[15:34] <psam> i'm using zte mf622 modem i've been able to use the modem but now i can't anymore
[15:34] <gigglefight> 2000 copyrighted by MAC.... so it maybe a Motorola processor...
[15:34] <grawity> gigglefight: uname -a will tell
[15:34] <Lartza_> Is there way to convert all my partitions(ext4) to ext3 witohut dataloss? :S
[15:34] <RHorse> garymc try the purge option with apt-get
[15:34] <Ileden> EF_Codd: I'm commuting so the connection is "flaky" to say the least....
[15:34] <gigglefight> gawity: huh?
[15:34] <thiebaude> garymc, search in synaptic for flash and remove it, if that dosen't work
[15:35] <gigglefight> grawity: please explain...
[15:35] <ZOO0828> psam:   give us the output  from  "lsusb"
[15:35] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: you could always run a virtual machine with windows on it
[15:35] <gigglefight> on a Mac?
[15:35] <gigglefight> really!
[15:35] <gigglefight> wow!
[15:35] <psam> ok wait a sec
[15:35] <grawity> gigglefight: Unix-based systems (including OS X) have 'uname' command.
[15:35] <psam> Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub
[15:35] <grawity> gigglefight: And, learn to use tab-completion on IRC :)
[15:35] <psam> Bus 002 Device 004: ID 19d2:2000
[15:35] <psam> Bus 002 Device 003: ID 045e:00d2 Microsoft Corp.

[15:35] <Ileden> aw. EF_codd siims to have gone away
[15:35] <gigglefight> Oooo going to write it down.
[15:35] <psam> ok sorry
[15:36] <ZOO0828> psam,  ok the 19d2:2000 is the modem
[15:36] <rabidweezle> I dunno if vmware has a ppc version though
[15:36] <ZOO0828> psam    then  "dmesg"
[15:36] <ZOO0828> psam     and use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste
[15:37] <gigglefight> I've heard of vmware.
[15:37] <thiebaude> !vm
[15:37] <garymc> RHorse removed all packages, which one should i install?
[15:37] <grawity> rabidweezle: even if it had, it wouldn't work :| running an x86 OS on a PPC CPU requires full emulation - quite a slow thing compared to virtualization.
[15:37] <gigglefight> heard of it. Will look into it more. I'm at 90% downloaded Ubuntu 9.04
[15:37] <psam> here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/267979/
[15:37] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: checking it out, running x86 emulation on a ppc is VERY SLOW gigglefight
[15:37] <psam> it's a long text =)
[15:37] <gigglefight> will be leaving soon. thanks for the help!
[15:37] <RHorse> garymc the non-free flash has been removed now?
[15:38] <garymc> yes
[15:38] <gigglefight> rabidweezle: my option?
[15:38] <psam> do you think you can help me?
[15:38] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: Guess you are running "the gimp" for your photoshopping needs
[15:38] <RHorse> ok, go to adobe.com and dl the .gz file for v. 10 flashplayer (linux) and save it to your home dir
[15:38] <gigglefight> how about if I just install a couple items from CS3
[15:38] <gigglefight> would that work? not the entire CS3
[15:38] <proview> hi everyone
[15:38] <ZOO0828> psam:  it looks ok,   ttyUSB0   ~  2   are the modem
[15:39] <miguelonnnn> heyyy boyyyyyyys!  ;)). Please 1 question, the graphic applet network manager works, i can scan wifi ap's and connect, why iwlist scan won't?
[15:39] <Lartza_> Is there way to fix the ext4 lockups? :(
[15:39] <ZOO0828> psam  how do you dial up
[15:39] <garymc> right when i goto a site that i want to use flash on it tells me to click here to download package. It gives me 3 options
[15:39] <psam> but the networkmanager doesn't allow me to connect it
[15:39] <garymc> swfdec SWF player
[15:39] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: from what it looks like, you don't want to do it
[15:39] <psam> once it appeared there
[15:39] <psam> the connection
[15:39] <garymc> Adobe flash player
[15:39] <proview> i installed mysql, but im getting ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2)
[15:39] <psam> but now it doesn't
[15:39] <rabidweezle> gigglefight: I looks like you are stuck with the gimp
[15:39] <gigglefight> k.
[15:39] <garymc> Gnash SWF player
[15:39] <proview> even thourgh mysql its running
[15:39] <psam> i just installed ubuntu
[15:39] <gigglefight> lol.
[15:39] <proview> (telnet also works)
[15:39] <rabidweezle> I like the gimp though
[15:39] <ZOO0828> psam   I don't know how to use networkmgr to connect,   i use wvdial
[15:40] <rabidweezle> It has layers and all that
[15:40] <grawity> proview: Does that socket exist?
[15:40] <gigglefight> will be right back... going to install 9.04. thanks!
[15:40] <psam> i did that once but then firefox says it's in offline mode =/
[15:40] <proview> grawity, what do you mean
[15:40] <Lartza_> !ext4
[15:40] <grawity> proview: Read the error message.
[15:40] <Lartza_> Ummm....
[15:40] <proview> grawity, if telnet is connecting, should it be working?
[15:40] <ZOO0828> psam    no worries,  the modem is functioning at least
[15:40] <miguelonnnn> please help :(
[15:40] <blackxored> hello again crew
[15:40] <G-Man> well, i don't know why i didnt just leave XP on my damn computer ,lol
[15:41] <Lartza_> ubottu doesn't know about ext4??
[15:41] <miguelonnnn> hi blackxored !
[15:41] <G-Man> this shit is getting ridiculous
[15:41] <proview> grawity, also, didnt apt-get did all this things, why in this version of ubuntu 9.04 its not working
[15:41] <grawity> proview: MySQL uses two types of sockets: TCP socket (the one telnet uses) and Unix socket (file-based).
[15:41] <psam> oh well =(
[15:41] <ZOO0828> psam:    try this guide  http://www.lug-iitd.org/EvDO_on_Linux        don't worry if your modem is not EVDO,
[15:41] <blackxored> kind of silly question, if I got this v3 phone and plug oin to my usb bus, and then fire up a vm with xp, there's a way that my vm recognizes it although my linux system might not?
[15:41] <G-Man> so i upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10
[15:41] <G-Man> now everything is jumbo...
[15:41] <proview> grawity, how do i create the unix socket?
[15:41] <blackxored> miguelonnnn, hi, glad to be back ;)
[15:41] <kaoD> hi
[15:41] <grawity> proview: It's supposed to be created by mysqld on start.
[15:42] <psam> ok
[15:42] <garymc> anyone advise me on best Flash option to install. Just tried the nonfree version and it didnt work so well
[15:42] <kaoD> I've got a big problem installing Ubuntu... the description is too long, but you can read about it here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7921673
[15:42] <proview> grawity, mysqld is running
[15:42] <zpx> anyone know how to determine if my hard disks are physically in the machine or mounted from a san?
[15:42] <RHorse> garymc do you want to install it or not?
[15:42] <Vixen-> Hey folks, if I install gfx drivers which for any reason aren't compatible with my machine, is there any way to revert to previous drivers?
[15:42] <Dumb0> proview, and you have to configure it in my.conf
[15:42] <garymc> I want to install a good flash player that works
[15:42] <RHorse> ok, go to adobe.com and dl the .gz file for v. 10 flashplayer (linux) and save it to your home dir
[15:42] <proview> dumb0, ok tks, i will check out my.conf
[15:42] <grawity> Vixen-: Remove them through the terminal.
[15:43] <Vixen-> grawity: can you tell me how to do that?
[15:43] <grawity> I have no idea :\
[15:43] <clay> when I try to bring up places>home  I keep get cervisia errors. How do I fix this?
[15:43] <thiebaude> garymc, get the .deb flash from the adobe site
[15:44] <G-Man> is it me or is 8.10 buggy as hell
[15:45]  * blackxored wonders again if it connects a mobile by usb, and fire a vm with xp or something, will the vm detect it although my ubuntu may not??
[15:46] <snxdp2> hi.. what firewall is the most prefered in ubuntu 9.04?
[15:46] <G-Man> can i get some help
[15:46] <G-Man> everything is super huge
[15:46] <G-Man> and i cant change the resolution any higher
[15:47] <psygate> @snxdp2 use firestart. easy and good.
[15:47] <ZOO0828> blackxored:  ubuntu has to see the device first before the VM does,  however , maybe not in a way that XP does
[15:47] <snxdp2> i cant seem to enable it, ??
[15:47] <FiReSTaRT> psygate: you mean firestarter - the firewall.. i'm not easy ;)
[15:47] <proview> grawity, actually now i dont get the socket thing, mysqladmin admin-u root password mypassword , gets , mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed | error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
[15:47] <Lartza_> Would upgrading to 9.10 fix my problems?
[15:47] <hyb> what is ATK-accessibility toolkit?
[15:47] <psygate> @snxdp2 root mode active?
[15:48] <G-Man> Helllo out there!!!
[15:48] <proview> admin-u => -u
[15:48] <psygate> i think you have to enable root mode for firestarter
[15:48] <psygate> letme have a quick look at mine...
[15:48] <zpx> has pf been ported to ubuntu yet? if so I'd use that
[15:48] <G-Man> let me have a quick fix for jumbo everything
[15:48] <blackxored> ZOO0828, if it listed in lsbusb is enough?
[15:48] <psygate> @snxdp2 yeah.   Should I install Karmic instead?
[15:49] <zipito> how to enable font smoothing for wider range of sizes ? i.e. I want to get smoothed fonts for sizes starting from 4
[15:49] <psygate> @bxcttr1 force mount?
[15:49] <bxcttr1> how
[15:49] <bxcttr1> ?
[15:50] <Lartza_> grawity: Oh :) I hope G-man learned after someone did !langauge for him
[15:50] <psygate> @bxcttr1 terminal
[15:50] <snxdp2> thanx
[15:50] <ZOO0828> blackxored:   your problem again?  sorry
[15:50] <coilette> I need to install "lcap" thats an L, but its not in apt-get under lcap.. anybody know the right package name, or maybe a site that has a list of package names?
[15:50] <coilette> it could be
[15:50] <ZOO0828> blackxored:  your VM can't see the phone?
[15:50] <grawity> coilette: apt-cache search lcap
[15:50] <blackxored> ZOO0828, I had some issues in the past making usb devices working with vbox
[15:50] <coilette> did that grawity
[15:50] <blackxored> ZOO0828, running the ose from the repos
[15:50] <ZOO0828> blackxored:  is the usb section grayed out?
[15:51] <psygate> @bxcttr1 mount -f?
[15:51] <blackxored> ZOO0828, sometimes it is sometimes it's not, weird
[15:51] <ZOO0828> blackxored,  oh, simple answer, ose vbox does not support usb
[15:51] <blackxored> ZOO0828, but it activates some times, how could that be possible
[15:51] <ionut_> Hello guys! Does anoyne have a PowerEdge 860 server?
[15:51] <ZOO0828> blackxored   never mind , go to sun vbox site and download the full version
[15:52] <coilette> During an FTP server 'make' i get "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcap" i dont know the correct package to grab, and there is no lcap in apt-cace search
[15:52] <coilette> cache*
[15:52] <blackxored> ZOO0828, i'll be probably back to vmware, but who knows, i might give a try to vbox, once again
[15:52] <jpds> T/17
[15:53] <shawnps> I just built a new machine, and I installed Jaunty and got everything to work   including the nvidia driver for my onboard Geforce 8100.  Should I install      Karmic instead?
[15:53] <ZOO0828> blackxored:  if i were, you,  i would like to try to solve the problem in vbox first,   and it's not that hard
[15:53] <blackxored> ZOO0828, all right, but vmware supports might be better
[15:53] <ZOO0828> blackxored   actually, I just got my own vbox working recently
[15:53] <blackxored> ZOO0828, I'll following your advice, download vbox-3.0.4
[15:53] <ZOO0828> blackxored   vmware is not free  ...  :)
[15:54] <ZOO0828> blackxored    excellent
[15:54] <CaptainKacke> hi @all. can anybody tell me how i can add a firefox symbol to my desktop, without usind the plasmoids. when i create a link the symbol is only a question mark. how can i fix this?
[15:54] <ZOO0828> blackxored   and even with the full version, some more steps need to take before the usb could function properly
[15:55] <ZOO0828> blackxored   hold on,  grub some info
[15:55] <ionut_> Do you think I could add more than 8 GB Memory to a Dell PowerEdge 860 server? It has foud memory slots. I don't see why it would not support 4 GB modules? Has anyone tried this?
[15:56] <Pici> ionut_: Thats not really on-topic for this channel.  ##hardware would be a more appropriate place to discuss.
[15:56] <blackxored> ZOO0828, vmware server is free, at least in a money-sense
[15:56] <ionut_> ok. will try that. thx
[15:56] <ZOO0828> blackxored   that;s true
[15:57] <coilette> During an FTP server 'make' i get "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcap" i dont know the correct package to grab, and there is no lcap (LCAP) in apt-cache search
[15:57] <ZOO0828> blackxored:  got it,     http://www.ghacks.net/2009/08/01/install-virtualbox-with-usb-support/
[15:58] <G-man> well.. i was told that the reason i couldnt get my video card to work was because i was on 8.04
[15:58] <blackxored> ZOO0828, also, sun's blocking my country :D
[15:58] <G-man> i upgrade to 8.10
[15:58] <G-man> and now its bugged out
[15:58] <G-man> everything is even bigger than before
[15:58] <Cpudan80> 8.10 is old
[15:58] <grawity> technically, the latest version is 9.04, not 8.10
[15:58] <G-man> but i can at least look at xcontrol now
[15:58] <Cpudan80> get 9.04
[15:58] <proview> 9.04 sucks right now
[15:59] <Cpudan80> But - I will agree - the changes made to X were not ... the best idea
[15:59] <ionut_> for vbox with usb support you must use VBoX PUEL and make yourself a member of the group vboxusers
[15:59] <G-man> to be honest
[15:59] <G-man> im afraid it will be worse
[15:59] <ZOO0828> blackxored:   the steps works for other version of ubuntu as well   only you may change one line to "none /sys/bus/usb/drivers usbfs devgid=120,devmode=664 0 0"  depends
[15:59] <G-man> i mean i cant even figure out how to get my resolution any higher than 640*480
[15:59] <G-man> and when i try to click windows, they just move around
[15:59] <ZOO0828> blackxored  :   how so?   :)
[15:59] <G-man> its weird
[16:00] <blackxored> ZOO0828, I go through vmware, I don't want to fire up tor everytime I have to update my sources
[16:00] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> mode being set to +e  haven't seen that in awhile.  o.O
[16:00] <G-man> if i upgrade to 9.04
[16:01] <G-man> will my 9800gt display both monitors
[16:01] <grawity> DJ_Unibob|laptop: Ban exception, for a web IRC user.
[16:01] <G-man> properly
[16:01] <G-man> ?
[16:01] <roshan> anyone know how to restart a wireless driver?
[16:01] <clearscreen> restart the driver or the interface?
[16:02] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> grawity:  that makes sense, just a mode I haven't seen in ages, forgot it was still around/used.
[16:02] <roshan> the driver. sometimes when downloading in large amount the driver kind of dies and i try t restart it
[16:02] <grawity> DJ_Unibob|laptop: Look at IRCnet someday. They still have +channels
[16:03] <clearscreen> roshan: are you not just get deassoc from your AP? check dmesg
[16:03] <DJ_Unibob|laptop> grawity:  will do.
[16:03] <miguelonnnn> tiosssssssssssssssss he conseguido que me vaya iwlist, solo tenia que ejecutarlo como sudo xd
[16:03] <miguelonnnn> sryyyyyy
[16:03] <ZOO0828> bye all
[16:03] <miguelonnnn> sryyy wrong channel again :(
[16:03] <miguelonnnn> bye!

[16:05] <G-man> Hi, is there a simple way to make a 9800gt display both monitors properly?
[16:06] <JonJ> G-man: It's an nvidia-card?
[16:06] <psygate> @stuk_gen searched synaptic? and forums?
[16:06] <G-man> Yes
[16:06] <stuk_gen> psygate i search...i use eeepc701
[16:06] <JonJ> G-man: Have you tried using nvidia-settings?
[16:06] <G-man> It doesnt go past 640*480
[16:06] <G-man> For whatever reason...
[16:06] <sky_1> hi how do i start teamspeak ?
[16:06] <stuk_gen> i use vlc,zoneminder but dont work
[16:07] <stuk_gen> other program to stream ?
[16:07] <kiaas__> so, if I want to open alsa mixer, and my sound device is Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0d8c:0103 C-Media Electronics, Inc. Turtle Beach Audio Advantage Micro how exactly do I go about doing that?
[16:07] <psygate> @sky_1 tried terminal -> teamspeak
[16:07] <psygate> ?
[16:07] <JonJ> G-man: Is the nvidia-driver installed?
[16:07] <G-man> yes
[16:07] <coilette> 0.o i went to ''lcap's site, downloaded the i386.deb and installed it, checked for dependancy problems, and i still get an error in make
[16:08] <JonJ> G-man: Okey, and when running NVIDIA X Server Settings you cannot make it go beyond 800x640?
[16:08] <sky_1> how do i start teamspeak ?
[16:08] <Ileden> So... I'm tring to set up a single LVM drive on my SD card. I have partitioned /dev/mmcblk0 to have Linux LVM (8e) partition, which is at /dev/mmcblk0p1. However, pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p1 fails with "Device not found (or ignored by filtering)." My /etc/lvm/lvm.conf is set to scan from /dev, and should include all devices. What's going wrong here?
[16:08] <coilette> sky_1 its under internet i believe
[16:08] <G-man> version 180 is currently activated
[16:08] <G-man> right
[16:08] <psygate> @stuk_gen read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam and http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Webcam
[16:09] <G-man> and it was 1600*1200 before i installed ubuntu
[16:09] <G-man> lol
[16:09] <G-man> i know it works
[16:09] <sky_1> coilette: its ont in the menu
[16:09] <kiaas__> wait, what, is this a CRT G-man? I hate how it utterly refuses to use larger resolutions on CRTs :/
[16:10] <psygate> @sky_1 private dialogue? read it.
[16:10] <G-man> a 22inch. acer
[16:10] <G-man> widescreen
[16:10] <kiaas__> I've never seen a 22" CRT
[16:10] <kiaas__> Er widescreen*
[16:10] <G-man> the crt is the secondary monitor
[16:10] <G-man> on the right hand side
[16:11] <JonJ> G-man: What version of Ubuntu? I think I saw you mentioning 8.10 earlier..
[16:11] <G-man> earlier i had 8.4
[16:11] <G-man> upgraded
[16:11] <G-man> now i have 8.10
[16:11] <G-man> but everything is so huge
[16:11] <FloodBot1> G-man: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[16:12] <G-man> something to do with tvideo
[16:12] <G-man> display
[16:12] <Pici> !fixres | G-man have you read this?
[16:13] <coilette> Has anybody here at one point had a problem with lcap (LCAP)?
[16:15] <Kalisto> if im logged in as root via ssh will the user with an x session in gnome get a warning on shutdown that a user is still connected?
[16:16] <heoaa> My sysadimin has blocked the access to /etc/printcap. how can I see all printers in the network?
[16:18] <waterfoul> i'm trying to set up surround in ubuntu according to this guide: http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/06/enable-surround-sound-in-ubuntu-linux.html but when I start pulse since the surround device is usb and not the first sould card it gets defaulted back to stero
[16:18] <waterfoul> *sterio
[16:19] <waterfoul> any ideas?
[16:19] <waterfoul> when I start pulse it says W: alsa-util.c: Device hw:1 doesn't support 6 channels, changed to 1.
[16:19] <waterfoul> So it might actually be going to mono
[16:20] <Ileden> I'm trying to set up a single LVM drive on my SD card. I have partitioned /dev/mmcblk0 to have Linux LVM (8e) partition, which is at /dev/mmcblk0p1. However, pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p1 fails with "Device not found (or ignored by filtering)." My /etc/lvm/lvm.conf is set to scan from /dev, and should include all devices.   Firefox 3.5 is a new version of firefox, its not an update to Firefox 3.0
[16:21] <frogger> Before I did an ubuntu reinstall, flash was working fine.

[16:22] <theevilone> ich weiß aus der vergangenheit dass ich mal das problem hatte mit beiden betriebssystemen auf einem pc installiert
[16:22] <bobsomebody> hello #ubuntu
[16:22] <theevilone> da musste man eins von beiden zuerst installieren und dann das andere wegen kernel usw...
[16:22] <hajmola> Pici, do you know when we can expect 3.5?

[16:23] <theevilone> sorry dudes
[16:23] <softcraft> Hi everyone. I'm trying to install XBMC, and one of the steps is to get a PGP key from keyserver.ubuntu.com. However, I can't get to that site; I get a timeout. Is it down temporarily or are my instructions out-of date?
[16:24] <grawity> softcraft: It's down, hopefully temporarily. Use pool.sks-keyservers.org instead.
[16:24] <Pici> hajmola: See http://is.gd/1jkNY
[16:24] <softcraft> great thanks

[16:24] <bobsomebody> is anyone here familiar with bash scripting? I need to build a shell script to check if a process is running, if grep ps comes back blank I need to fire up that process again
[16:25] <Pici> bobsomebody: #bash would be the best place to ask that
[16:25] <bobsomebody> im just not that familiar with shell scripts to know what is the best way to do this
[16:25] <bobsomebody> oh
[16:25] <bobsomebody> forgot that was here :P thanks Pici
[16:25] <grawity> bobsomebody: The shortest way: pidof someprocess || someprocess

[16:26] <G-man> how do i force resize my resolution?
[16:26] <G-man> it is very annoying
[16:26] <G-man> how big it is right now
[16:26] <Pici> G-man: Please stop pressing the enter key every 4 words.
[16:27] <bobsomebody> G-man System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[16:27] <G-man> Does it really bother you that bad?
[16:27] <grawity> It does.
[16:27] <G-man> thanks bob
[16:27] <hajmola> G-man, it's a general etiquette thing
[16:27] <G-man> 640*480 is the max

[16:28] <bobsomebody> G-man, do you have nvidia, ati, or some other graphics card?
[16:28] <G-man> nvidia Geforce 9800gt
[16:28] <bobsomebody> hold on one sec...
[16:29] <G-man> k
[16:29] <kazagistar> For the past few versions of ubuntu "Restricted Drivers" found and installed the right drivers for my broadcom wireless card, and while I was running the live-cd it displayed the options correctly, but now it no longer displays any restricted drivers, and my wireless does not work (but seems to think it does?)
[16:30] <bobsomebody> G-man, http://lmgtfy.com/?q=ubuntu+nvidia
[16:30] <rapha> Hi!
[16:30] <rapha> How can I get "Display" properties to show the correct resolution for external LCD? It only shows wrong ones...
[16:30] <bobsomebody> there is a wealth of knowledge about ubuntu + nvidia cards, there is some other things you need to install as well
[16:31] <kazagistar> G-man: basically, force resizing is not what you want, what you want it proper drivers for your graphics card
[16:31] <bobsomebody> and the respective nvidia settings manager
[16:33] <psygate> gawd...
[16:33] <psygate> sometimes i ask myself why people use computers -.-
[16:33] <borreguito> hi.... how can i buy canonical software if i do not have a credit card????
[16:34] <psygate> buy?
[16:34] <Ileden> I'm trying to set up a single LVM drive on my SD card. I have partitioned /dev/mmcblk0 to have Linux LVM (8e) partition, which is at /dev/mmcblk0p1. However, pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p1 fails with "Device not found (or ignored by filtering)." My /etc/lvm/lvm.conf is set to scan from /dev, and should include all devices. What's going wrong here? Why can't I initialize /dev/mmcblk0p1 as a physical volume?
[16:34] <G-man> i dont remember ubuntu being such a pain last time
[16:34] <G-man> my video card ran fine
[16:34] <borreguito> yes... i want  linux powerdvd
[16:34] <psygate> use a free alternative??
[16:35] <psygate> or a paypal account?
[16:35] <psygate> if you dont have a credit card, you are pretty much f...#
[16:35] <bobsomebody> borreguito, are you in the USA?
[16:35] <psygate> go to your local computer store and order it ^^
[16:35] <borreguito> i am from Mexico
[16:35] <Ileden> borreguito: Ehm... you can use for example the free VLC player to play DVDs.
[16:35] <bobsomebody> see about getting a prepaid visa from a local bank
[16:36] <psygate> or just install the non canonical dvd software drivers?
[16:36] <bobsomebody> it will cost a small fee for the card itself, but works like a real credit card
[16:36] <psygate> so you can watch dvd movies.
[16:36] <Ileden> borreguito: you don't need to buy anything to watch dvds.
[16:37] <psygate> @borreguito: have a look at this -> https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html
[16:37] <clearscreen> psygate: or could just install vlc and play pretty much anything :P
[16:38] <Pici> psygate: 7.04 is no longer supported, and that howto is probably out of date anyway
[16:38] <psygate> @clearscreen this would be the easy way, of course.
[16:38]  * psygate is not uptodate?!
[16:38]  * psygate walks into a corner and cries.
[16:38] <clearscreen> psygate: sudo aptitude install vlc .. real hard :P
[16:38] <richardtsai> Hey, guys. I have a Acer 4930G notebook and I'm new to Ubuntu 9.04, could anybody tell me how to drive my fingerprinter AES1610 and my webcam.
[16:38] <MenZa> !update | psygate
[16:38] <borreguito> i have a 6ch sound card... but vlc do not play main front speakes channel.. only surround and sub wofers channels.
[16:38] <psygate> clearscreen: I would have used the synaptic paket manager ^^
[16:39] <psygate> Many people f. up with the terminal ^^
[16:39]  * psygate thinks about his sister.
[16:39] <richardtsai> Help! Hey, guys. I have a Acer 4930G notebook and I'm new to Ubuntu 9.04, could anybody tell me how to drive my fingerprinter AES1610 and my webcam.
[16:39] <clearscreen> psygate: you must fail to succeed :)
[16:40] <psygate> clearscreen: and fail really hard to learn something new.
[16:40] <psygate> like... rm -r

[16:40] <psygate> @Ileden how many times do you want to copypasta that?
[16:40] <Ileden> psygate: trying to keep delays in between
[16:41] <Ileden> psygate: should increase the delay, I guess. :)
[16:41] <thiebaude> Ileden, have you asked that question in the ubuntu forums?
[16:41] <richardtsai> Can anyone help me?
[16:42] <richardtsai> I have a Acer 4930G notebook and I'm new to Ubuntu 9.04, could anybody tell me how to drive my fingerprinter AES1610 and my webcam.
[16:42] <Ileden> thiebaude: not yet. I'm still browsing through the documentation, trying to locate the problem myself at the same time.
[16:43] <gnychis> i have installed flashplugin-nonfree, but Firefox keeps using VLC/Totem to play flash... how can i change this? about:plugins does not list the adobe flash player at all
[16:43] <grawity> richardtsai: If nobody answers your question, that means nobody knows. There's no need to repeat the question
[16:43] <evident> can anybody tell me how i can remove the "Shiretoko" web browser and only have Firefox 3.5? Since the problem is too long to write here, I pasted it here: http://www.hpaste.org/fastcgi/hpaste.fcgi/view?id=9220#a9220
[16:43] <dhcp> @evident: uninstall in synaptic?
[16:43] <evident> i'll try
[16:43] <grawity> Now that's one long pastebin URL...
[16:43] <grawity> evident: Try Ubuntuzilla.
[16:43] <Ileden> grawity: actually... don't the guidelines tell you to in fact keep repeating the question with a delay in between?
[16:44] <thiebaude> gnychis, are you using mediaplayer connectivity plugin in firefox?
[16:44] <grawity> Ileden: if they do, they'd sure choose a delay longer than 25 lines.
[16:44] <Ileden> grawity: should be a longer delay, for sure. (longer tahn mine too :) )
[16:44] <gnychis> thiebaude: i'm not sure what that is
[16:44] <clearscreen> gnychis: you can try to manually install the plugin ... ~/.mozilla/firefox/plugins/ I believe, can grab the latest version from adobe website
[16:44] <thiebaude> ok, then your not using it
[16:44] <duffydack> evident, only another month and it`ll be default in 9.10
[16:45] <thiebaude> duffydack, yep one more alpha and then a beta
[16:45] <evident> duffydack, and updating my system from 9.04 to 9.10 will automatically delete the old stuff and only have ff3.5 then?
[16:46] <richardtsai> OK. I got it then. Another question, can I just turn the function of which shows some one who has entered or leave this channel..
[16:46] <grawity> richardtsai: Depends on your IRC client.
[16:46] <richardtsai> That's a lot of useless information that I don't need.
[16:46] <nirvette> HELP! I NEED TO REPAIR SOME PROBLEMS WITH DPKG..AND PROBLEMS WITH INSTALLING FLASH-PLUGIN FOR FIREFOX
[16:46] <MenZa> In Pidgin, richardtsai, I doubt it.
[16:46] <MenZa> !caps | nirvette
[16:46] <richardtsai> I just newly installed Ubuntu 9.04.
[16:46] <dhcp> @nirvette no need to SHOUT
[16:46] <nirvette> sorry i'm just anxious
[16:46] <nirvette> sigh
[16:46] <dhcp> CapsLock is not a cruise control for cool.
[16:47] <dhcp> *citing ED*
[16:47] <MenZa> nirvette: Care to elaborate? What problems with dpkg?
[16:47] <richardtsai> Is there any other IRC software I can use here? Or other software I can download
[16:47] <grawity> richardtsai: Try Xchat.
[16:47] <theatro> nirvette, post on pastebin the command and the output of the dpkg related problem
[16:47] <kazagistar> nirvette: what have you done so far?
[16:47] <dhcp> @richardtsay look for irc in synaptic manager
[16:47] <grawity> richardtsai: irssi is popular too, but it's terminal-based
[16:47] <duffydack> evident, yup..  but I dont go the upgrade way personally.
[16:47] <clearscreen> richardtsai: pidgin supports irc, you can try irssi too
[16:47] <evident> dhcp, when I want to delete it in synaptic, what should I delete? firefox-3.5, 3.0? or firefox-3.5-dbg, branding, dev?
[16:47] <MenZa> !best| richardtsai
[16:47] <nirvette> ok: when i visited sites that required flash, they prompted me..but i didn't know only need to choose one out of three choices
[16:47] <richardtsai> thx
[16:47] <nirvette> so i clicked ok for GNOME
[16:47] <grawity> clearscreen: He's already using Pidgin - but it sucks for IRC.
[16:47] <nirvette> which screwed up
[16:47] <clearscreen> grawity: no it doesnt :P
[16:47] <nirvette> cos now i can't see anything on football streaming websites
[16:48] <dhcp> @evident: which firefox do you want to keep?
[16:48] <grawity> clearscreen: Compared to other clients, yes, it so does. (Well, maybe Opera is worse.)
[16:48] <clearscreen> grawity: in what way is it bad? it's great especially with irchelper (pidgin-plugin-pack)
[16:48] <kazagistar> I use pidgin, and it works fine
[16:48] <nirvette> then i tried to manually install flash..then a whole long chain of smth came up and told me there's some update problems apparently
[16:49] <nirvette> Can I paste the text here???
[16:49] <kazagistar> no
[16:49] <clearscreen> !paste | nirvetta
[16:49] <clearscreen> nirvette*
[16:49] <evident> 3.5, but having it named "Firefox" instead of "Shiretoko"
[16:49] <matrix_> hey guys i have 2gb usb memory reader, i have 7 files on pc each file is 1gb size, is there any way to pack them and make them smaller so i can have all seven files on my usb reader
[16:50] <xikteny> matrix_: you could compress them, but probably not that much.
[16:50] <richardtsai> Sorry. I'm new here and I just transfer from Vista to ubuntu.
[16:50] <nirvette> Here's the text: http://paste.ubuntu.com/268014/
[16:50] <MenZa> matrix_: Could try compacting them with bzip2, but I very doubt you could compress from 7GB to 2GB
[16:50] <richardtsai> And my English is not very good then. Sorry for anything offense.
[16:50] <dhcp> is there a better dvd-eraser than brasero?
[16:51] <clearscreen> nirvette: install those packages then
[16:51]  * dhcp has problems with god damn brasero -.-
[16:51] <cornet> matrix_: what file types are they ? just text files or images ?
[16:51] <duffydack> dhcp, gnomebaker, k3b
[16:51] <matrix_> .avi movie files
[16:51] <yeason> I'm getting this (http://paste.ubuntu.com/268015/) error when I try to compile in java. The same file compiles on another computer and I've already tried removing and reinstalling all java related files... anybody have an idea?
[16:51] <nirvette> but how do i install those packages?
[16:51] <RHorse> !irssi | richardtsai
[16:51] <clearscreen> nirvette: sudo aptitude install libcurl3 libnss3-dev libnspr4-dev ...... or you could just sudo aptitude flashplugin-nonfree
[16:52] <MenZa> yeason: Hardly a question suitable here. Try #java
[16:52] <Ileden> matrix_: well, you probably can't compress video files in any significant amount
[16:52] <cornet> matrix_: they probably won't compress then :(
[16:52] <yeason> MenZa: I started here cause I thought it was a package issue with ubuntu... the java part is fine
[16:52] <clearscreen> nirvette: sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree .. sorry :)
[16:52] <Ileden> matrix_: however you could probably recode them to lower quality...
[16:52] <MenZa> yeason: That seems like a very odd error to have because of a packaging problem.
[16:53] <MenZa> Could it be a charset issue?
[16:53] <cornet> MenZa: for the record 4GB log files will compress down to < 200MB with gzip
[16:53] <nirvette> Ok, what do i do after this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/268017/
[16:53] <MenZa> cornet: impressive.
[16:53] <yeason> MenZa: well thanks for the tip, i'll try in the java channel too... its an odd error all around
[16:54] <fccf> nirvette: restart firefox
[16:54] <nirvette> so i just leave the terminal as it is?
[16:54] <MenZa> nirvette: Or close it, if you prefer.
[16:55] <fccf> nirvette: technically there is nothing happening in the terminal, you can close it, but personally I like to keep at least one terminal open on any system
[16:56] <clay> when I try to bring up places>home  I keep get cervisia errors. How do I fix this?
[16:56] <gartral> the way to kill compiz temporarily is nautilus --replace, right?
[16:56] <grawity> gartral: no, metacity --replace
[16:57] <grawity> gartral: nautilus is just the file manager, Metacity and Compiz are WMs.

[17:11] <Mitsurugi> hi all!
[17:11] <MikeChelen> !ask | nirvette

[17:12] <nirvette>  i still see nothing and  hear nothing
[17:12] <nirvette> what's the problem??
[17:12] <darkham> abhifx: yes i try it, very good, but i had some problem with it and i need to try some ather stuff...
[17:13] <fccf> nirvette: have you restarted firefox ... make sure to close downloads too if it is open ... try something that has been tested like youtube
[17:13] <MikeChelen> nirvette: look in firefox's tools -> addons -> plugins and see if flash appears
[17:13] <Mitsurugi> sb have problems with the videos since last update? actually i can't display wmv, avi, mpg ... the screens goes black, sound is correct, and vlc or totem do not display any errors. I'm using 9.04 (64bits) :s
[17:13] <nirvette> ok i'll do that for now
[17:14] <abhifx> darkham, then try dsl, these are the best small distro, puppy is much better
[17:14] <nandu> fccf: I don't know why but it worked, the disk previously 100% full is now just 30%
[17:14] <scyx> I added a repository but it doesn't show up in synaptic's origin tab.. anyone have similar experiences/knows the fix?
[17:14] <MikeChelen> anyone know the way to install 32 bit java in 64 bit os?
[17:15] <nandu> fccf: And I am installing new things
[17:15] <nandu> fccf: Thanks anyway
[17:15] <fccf> nandu: when I see my apt cache filling up I clean it out ... can't have things getting locked up ... good for that
[17:15] <nirvette> Hi: there's Quicktime and Shockwave Flash
[17:15] <nirvette> in the plugins of Firefox
[17:15] <Techtronic> kowto fix this: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) ?
[17:15] <nirvette> so am i missing anything?
[17:15] <nandu> fccf: ok, I will do that do from now
[17:16] <blackxored> installing vmware server, it installed right, but now on the remote console plugin, I can't install it since says isn't compatible with firefox 3.0.13, any clues? Any other method to access the virtual machine? thanks
[17:17] <codeshah> I just downloaded chkroot kit and it says 'ls' is infected
[17:17] <codeshah> how is this possible?
[17:18] <fccf> blackxored: consider ssh or telnet into console
[17:18] <blackxored> fccf, then I can't use the OS at all
[17:18] <nirvette> Ok: another problem: tested on youtube.com. can see visuals now. but no sound!! what is the problem?
[17:19] <terminhell> Just installed new sound theme. But not all the sounds work. I have audio with everything else. So whats the deal?
[17:19] <SingAlong> nirvette: turn on the sound or increase it. use the alsamixer to do that.
[17:19] <gnubie> MikeChelen;  I believe ubuntu-restricted-extras will install java
[17:19] <blackxored> anyone?
[17:20] <SingAlong> nirvette: sound is usually low in ubuntu after install (atleast happens so for me). just type in alsamixer in the commandline and try changing the volume there
[17:20] <twoslice> terminhell: do you have all of the codecs installed?
[17:20] <nirvette> my sound is at its maximum
[17:20] <RHorse> nirvette put the latest libflashplayer.so in all your plugin dir's
[17:20] <nirvette> nothing
[17:20] <twoslice> quit
[17:20] <SingAlong> nirvette: dont change it in the volume properties in the top bar on the desktop.
[17:20] <MikeChelen> gnubie: did that already to install 64bit java
[17:20] <clearscreen> nirvette: are you sure it's not muted? (check for M's instead of O's in alsamixer)
[17:20] <SingAlong> nirvette: use the alsamixer
[17:20] <fccf> blackxored: personally I use Sun's xVM Virtualbox, and it works great... you might want to ask in #vmware
[17:21] <terminhell> twoslice yes
[17:21] <nirvette> RHorse: when you say put the libflashplayer.so, what do yo mean? how do i do that/
[17:21] <blackxored> fcff, all right
[17:21] <SingAlong> nirvette: oh ya. also try what RHorse said. (but i doubt thats a problem. coz you have video working already)
[17:21] <clearscreen> nirvette: you're gonna want to turn up Master and PCM, and make sure they're not muted
[17:21] <SingAlong> nirvette: libflashplayer.so. drop that file in the firefox plugins dir
[17:21] <RHorse> well nirvette if you're problem is flash, not sound
[17:22] <SingAlong> RHorse: he says his video is working fine. just no sound.
[17:22] <terminhell> Twoslice, even the default ubuntu theme has the same problem. the window min/max/unmax wont play and a few others too
[17:22] <RHorse> the wrong kind of flash can cause that, SingAlong
[17:22] <SingAlong> RHorse: guess he's got a sound problem in the ubuntu sound config
[17:22] <SingAlong> RHorse: oh. didnt know that.
[17:22] <SingAlong> nirvette: which version is your ubuntu? also is it 64bit or 32bit?
[17:23] <nirvette> hmmm i donno
[17:23] <nirvette> 9.04 netbook remix
[17:23] <SingAlong> nirvette: 64bit versions have a seperate flash plugin. 32bit flash stuff dont work on that.
[17:23] <SingAlong> nirvette: ah ah! same as mine. i'm just partitioning my netbook remix :)
[17:23] <SingAlong> nirvette: Acer Aspire One?
[17:24] <SingAlong> nirvette: which netbook is that?
[17:24] <nirvette> sigh and i have a BIGGER problem. i accidentally chose the wrong option when i was installing ubuntu
[17:24] <nirvette> and i wiped out my windows hard drive
[17:24] <SingAlong> nirvette: ?
[17:24] <nirvette> lost 4,000 plus songs
[17:24] <nirvette> what should i do!!
[17:24] <SingAlong> nirvette: which netbook?
[17:24] <ph33r> is there a software/way to connect multiple monitors, keyboard, mouse to  single cpu and run different apps in each of the console ?
[17:24] <nirvette> Asus eee PC 900
[17:24] <IdleOne> need some help with BloGtk. what do I put in the server field when setting up account ?
[17:25] <SingAlong> nirvette: you should have kept your win drive and installed ubuntu by the side. you could later resize the partitions. thats what I'm doing right now.
[17:25] <nirvette> too late!
[17:25] <SingAlong> nirvette: :
[17:25] <nirvette> is there a chance i might get my things back?
[17:25] <nirvette> i'm so frustrated now
[17:25] <tisepti> How can I cause [gk]sudo to apply to the whole line: gksudo echo "some text here" >> file_owned_by_root
[17:26] <IdleOne> nirvette: not a chance of recovering data
[17:26] <nirvette> not a chance?!
[17:26] <tisepti> it looks like the sudo is only applied on the echo - not the redirect
[17:26] <nirvette> omg i can go kill myself now
[17:26] <tisepti> er append
[17:26] <IdleOne> nirvette: over mp3's? not worth it
[17:26] <nirvette> and my other impt documents too..
[17:26] <kilian______> hey there! I am trying to use a brand new plantronics explorer 230 headset with a ubuntu karmic machine. Pairing works, but pulseaudio doesnt load it. In the syslog bluetoothd says "protocol not supported (93)" what am i doing wrong?
[17:27] <nirvette> and if i can't solve the sound problem now..it's just so terrible
[17:27] <nirvette> arrgh
[17:27] <nirvette> not even data recovery can help me?
[17:28] <fccf> ph33r: libdmx1 is the library that allows for that type of setup .... you will need to do some research
[17:28] <IdleOne> !recover | nirvette
[17:28] <scyx> I added a repository but it doesn't show up in synaptic's origin tab.. anyone have similar experiences/knows a fix?
[17:28] <bibek> while installing ubuntu, i created sda1 swap, sda2 '/' and sda3 as '/Files' to keep music and videos. I can not write to this '/Files' from normal account as it is owned by root.How do i own this to my regular account ?
[17:28] <MikeChelen> gnubie: found what i was looking for, it was http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ia32-sun-java6-bin
[17:28] <ph33r> fccf: which repo ?
[17:29] <grawity> bibek: Change the ownership?
[17:29] <bibek> ya
[17:29] <grawity> bibek: sudo chown bibek /Files
[17:29] <bibek> thanks
[17:29] <kiaas__> Anyone know if there's a SPARC version of ubuntu that works on the Sun Ultra 5?
[17:30] <fccf> !info libdmx1 | ph33r
[17:30] <IdleOne> nirvette: only thing is that those links "may" help if you deleted files but you formated the drive and well that pretty much does it for that data
[17:30] <nirvette> SIGH
[17:30] <nirvette> i shouldnt have installed ubuntu..
[17:30] <ph33r> fccf: thank you :)
[17:30] <IdleOne> kiaas__: check ubuntu.com
[17:30] <nirvette> it's making me miserable
[17:31] <fccf> ph33r: see also xserver-xorg-input-evdev
[17:32] <grawity> SIGH: invalid signal specification
[17:32] <haytix> help
[17:32] <Ileden> I'm trying to set up a single LVM drive on my SD card. I have partitioned /dev/mmcblk0 to have Linux LVM (8e) partition, which is at /dev/mmcblk0p1. However, pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p1 fails with "Device not found (or ignored by filtering)." My /etc/lvm/lvm.conf is set to scan from /dev, and should include all devices. What's going wrong here? Why can't I initialize /dev/mmcblk0p1 as a LVM physical volume?
[17:32] <SingAlong> nirvette: dont blame ubuntu. you should have been careful while installing it.
[17:32] <nirvette> i'm not blaming the damn OS don't you get it
[17:32] <haytix> sorry missend
[17:32] <nirvette> i know it's my bad yeah
[17:32] <nirvette> just feeling soooooo frustrated
[17:32] <JonJ> nirvette: What kind of filesystem did you have on the disk before you formatted it?
[17:33] <nirvette> and now can anyone help me get some sounds on the damn thing now?
[17:33] <SingAlong> nirvette: i do almost 2-3 OS installs a week (not just ubuntu). i check my settings atleast 5-6 times before clicking "ok" :)
[17:33] <IdleOne> nirvette: please calm down. movies and music you can get back. Pictures you should be able to get from family members and other sites you uploaded to.
[17:33] <nirvette> JonJ: what do you mean file system?
[17:33] <SingAlong> nirvette: just check the UNR help page. some netbooks have problems.
[17:33] <fccf> JonJ: NTFS ... previously winXP
[17:33] <JonJ> fccf: Ok
[17:34] <Ileden> nirvette: program called "testdisk" saved me a lot of data I thought lost
[17:34] <SingAlong> nirvette: like my AAO's pulseaudio goes wrong while recording etc. check that page.
[17:34] <nirvette> yeah i was on Windows XP.
[17:34] <nirvette> ileden: testdisk? really? get from where?
[17:34] <SingAlong> nirvette: whats the file system now? what was the file system before?
[17:34] <IdleOne> nirvette: please watch your language and calm down.
[17:34] <nirvette> what is file system? (sorry, as you can already tell by now, i'm not an IT person mmuch)
[17:35] <whatsinaname> I am trying to find a guide to installing ubuntu server on a flash drive and then using swap in ram.  I have a small form factor case and wanted to put 2 drives in only for data and run server from flash.  Any Ideas?
[17:35] <SingAlong> nirvette: ntfs, fat32, ext2,3,4 etc
[17:35] <nirvette> fat32
[17:35] <SingAlong> nirvette: you didnt change the file system while installing ubuntu?
[17:35] <nirvette> the file system now is ubuntu la
[17:35] <fccf> !usb | whatsinaname
[17:35] <nirvette> huh? how to change?
[17:36] <fccf> whatsinaname: see the second link
[17:36] <whatsinaname> fccf thanks!
[17:36] <IdleOne> SingAlong: Windows XP uses NTFS by default ?
[17:36] <SingAlong> IdleOne: yes.
[17:36] <IdleOne> nirvette: you had XP on there correct
[17:36] <IdleOne> ?
[17:36] <Ileden> nirvette: it's available from ubuntu repositories - just use synaptic packet manager (or add/remove programs) to get it
[17:36] <nirvette> yeah i did. XP
[17:36] <SingAlong> IdleOne: although you can choose fat32 at install.
[17:37] <IdleOne> SingAlong: you got the filesystem now :)
[17:37] <whatsinaname> fccf  I am just going to use it for torrent and file server.  9.04, web min.  I am just to cheep to buy ide to cf adapter
[17:37] <SingAlong> IdleOne: it seems he screwed up his xp install coz he formatted and installed ubuntu
[17:37] <IdleOne> SingAlong: I assume it was pre-installed when she bought the machine
[17:37] <Ileden> nirvette: you can also download it from http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
[17:37] <IdleOne> he/she??
[17:37] <Ileden> nirvette: but it's not the most easiest to use, unfortunately
[17:37] <nirvette> hmmm
[17:37] <clay> when I try to bring up places>home  I keep get cervisia errors. How do I fix this?
[17:38] <fccf> whatsinaname: what like $5 on ebay
[17:38] <nirvette> i'm a she
[17:38] <nirvette> not the easiest to use?
[17:38] <nirvette> hmm
[17:38] <whatsinaname> fccf ok, not money issue,  lazy :) lol
[17:38] <nirvette> i guess i can try asking friends to work it for me
[17:38] <nirvette> sighhhhh
[17:38] <Ileden> nirvette: probably worth to check out the live-cd's too: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk_Livecd
[17:40] <nirvette> hmm ok thanks ileden
[17:40] <fccf> whatsinaname: I feel ya ... you are going to have to do the desktop install remove ubuntu-desktop and install the server kernel , rtorrent and webmin ... shouldn't be hard
[17:40]  * SingAlong thanks good angels. partition resizing didnt kill any of my data on windows
[17:40] <IdleOne> nirvette: the important thing to remember is to read all the instructions before clicking. stay calm and if there is something that you don't understand. look it up or come here and ask
[17:40] <Ileden> nirvette: testdisk isn't the most impossible program I've had to use either. with reading some instuctions, you can get far
[17:40] <nirvette> still can't hear no soundddd..how to watch football laterrr
[17:40] <whatsinaname> fccf  hmm so you cant just install server to usb?
[17:40] <whatsinaname> fccf I should just buy the cf card lol
[17:40] <SingAlong> gparted is a really awesome tool.
[17:41] <SingAlong> geirha: thanks a lot!
[17:41] <vigo> Gparted rocks socks
[17:41] <SingAlong> vigo: the bloody acer guys give away netbooks with windows installed in just one 160gb partition.
[17:42] <Ileden> SingAlong: and what's so wrong with that? I'm a one-partition guy myself :)
[17:42] <vigo> SingAlong: That is where gparted comes in so handy, and is simple to use.
[17:42] <SingAlong> ubuntu netbook remix install did a great job. and then with some help i successfully resized the partitions of the root file system and made a couple other partition.
[17:42] <SingAlong> *partitions
[17:43] <vigo> slices?
[17:43] <SingAlong> Ileden: maybe great for a server. but i dont like to have just one 160 gb partition. i like my data organised into different partitions :)
[17:43] <SingAlong> vigo: meaning?
[17:43] <fccf> whats in a name .. forget what I said ... install server version from server install disk .. make sure to put grub on the flash and not on the first harddrive so it will be bootable
[17:43] <fkagjsdfjskfks> asdf
[17:43] <nirvette> no sound still..does anyone have the same problem?
[17:44] <vigo> SingAlong: That is a BSD term, sorry.
[17:44] <xover> which version of nomachine is available for free use?
[17:44] <Ileden> SingAlong: Yeah, seirously speaking I understand the idea. Works for some people, but I just don't like messing up with partitioning, because it's so impossible to adjust.
[17:44] <burntresistor> im compliing fuppes and i cant find pthread and pcre  in packet manager are they by a different name
[17:44] <whatsinaname> fccf ahh ok I will give it a try.  Thanks for the help
[17:44] <Ileden> SingAlong:at leats, if not using LVM...
[17:44] <SingAlong> Ileden: personal taste :)
[17:44] <sky_1> Hi
[17:45] <SingAlong> vigo: i understood. but didnt know it was a bsd term though.
[17:45] <sky_1> Is Cinelerra in repo ?
[17:45] <sky_1> (i am not on ubuntu now)
[17:45] <Ileden> SingAlong: True. Also, partitioning on linux is much nicer because of mount points. On windows, I hated having multiple drives.
[17:45] <whatsinaname> Off to break things, then fix them then break them trying to make them better, then settle for them working.
[17:45] <grawity> Ileden: Windows allows mount points too.
[17:45] <scyx> I added a repository but it doesn't show up in synaptic's origin tab.. anyone have similar experiences/knows a fix?
[17:45] <sky_1> !cinelerra
[17:45] <Ileden> grawity: didn't back when I was using partitions :D
[17:46] <grawity> Ileden: Does since Windows 2000.
[17:46] <whatsinaname> fccf thanks again for your help.  have a good one.
[17:46] <SingAlong> Ileden: anyway windows is past for me. i just have windows in this netbook coz i think it violates their(acer) warranty or something.
[17:46] <vigo> SingAlong: Is all *nix, sorta, http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Linux+FreeBSD-2.html
[17:46] <Ileden> grawity: I got fed up with partitioning at Win98 times, I think. But I didn't know W2K could handle mount points. Thanks fro the info!
[17:46] <JonJ> nirvette: You have no sound? No system sounds or anything? Can you run the "alsamixer" command from a terminal and check the PCM volume?
[17:47] <SingAlong> Ileden: besides i dont expect the service guys to know linux to service my machine. :D so just left windows by itself
[17:47] <MikeChelen> anyone know how to make those .deb which include PPA config and keyfile?
[17:47] <nirvette> JonJ: what is the alsamixer command? you give me and i try to run it now?
[17:47] <seidos> how do you pronounce gnome?
[17:47] <grawity> Ileden: diskmgmt.msc (GUI, permanent) and mountvol (CLI, temporary). For future reference.
[17:47] <Ileden> SingAlong: coudln't you just take an image, and put the default windows back if you need to send it to warranty service? :)
[17:47] <seidos> is it just like Noam Chomsky?
[17:48] <JonJ> nirvette: Start a terminal from Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal and type in alsamixer
[17:48] <vigo> seidos: The g is silent.
[17:48] <fccf> nirvette: you said you had an Acer Aspire One?
[17:48] <SingAlong> Ileden: pain again :) it saves time you see.
[17:48] <Ileden> grawity: thanks. is it the same in XP?
[17:48] <nirvette> ok i see that
[17:48] <seidos> thanks
[17:48] <SingAlong> fccf: asus eeepc 900
[17:48] <nirvette> some graphic thingy came up
[17:48] <Ileden> SingAlong: well, true.
[17:48] <blubuntu1> when i try to remove human icon theme, it threatens to remove gnome power manager! WTF?!?!?!
[17:48] <grawity> Ileden: Yes.
[17:49] <nirvette> some red green white columns..and ispeaker says MM

[17:52] <Ileden> grawity: btw, now that I've re-partitioned the SD card (/dev/mmcblk0p1 being the new partition), I can *still* mount the /dev/mmcblk0 directly, and it contains the still-functioning vfat system. I assume this is normal... but sure feels a bit weird. :)
[17:53] <Steve^> How can I set up some local domain/subdomains for my local install of apache. Only need to work for localhost access
[17:53] <xmnt> Steffy, edit your /etc/hosts
[17:53] <xmnt> Steve^, sorry see above
[17:54] <ra21vi> anyone having problem with network in Ubuntu-Intrepid
[17:54] <Ileden> grawity: I assume it'll break down when I format the partition - for now, I've only touched (or rather, created) the partiton table on /dev/mmcblk0
[17:54] <ra21vi> I am unable to do anything on my office workstation. It is not connecting now...
[17:54] <Steve^> thanks xmnt

[17:56] <WishingMaster> how to uninstall current video drivers----command for uninstallation?
[17:56] <Steve^> xmnt, I use /etc/hosts to divert something.steveshome.com to <IP_ADDRESS> and then use the apache2 config to sort out the point to the site directory|?
[17:56] <Steve^> *sort out the link to the site directory
[17:56] <vigo> WishingMaster: I like Aptitude
[17:56] <fccf> Steve^: this is a good how to on virtual hosting
[17:56] <fccf> http://www.petersblog.org/node/840
[17:56] <nirvette> Can anyone explain what do i do after this? : http://paste.ubuntu.com/268048/
[17:56] <vigo> !aptitude
[17:57] <ra21vi> InfyGunFreak : my machine is shifted to other place. same building but other vlan now... and everything is picked up on DHCP (on every windows machine there).. my Ubuntu configured a new eth3 but not working.. I ggogled and found Ubuntu Intrepid has problem with Network manager. So I edited the /etc/network/interfaces   /etc/hosts   and /etc/resolv.conf  .. what else I need to do..
[17:57] <IndyGunFreak> WishingMaster: well what graphics device are you uninstalling the drivers for?.. and why?
[17:57] <nirvette> instructions were from this site: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes
[17:57] <WishingMaster> IndyGunFreak, i have installed wrong drivers
[17:57] <xmnt> Steve^, yes you will need to setup virtual hosts in apache ... then in your hosts file:  <IP_ADDRESS>    site1.xmnt
[17:57] <Steve^> nirvette, wait for it to install
[17:57] <IndyGunFreak> WishingMaster: whats the card
[17:57] <tempuser1> hey all - I'm using Jaunty - how can I find out what my current xorg configuration is? /etc/X11/xorg.conf only has a few lines in it (I assume it's using xorg's auto config)
[17:57] <WishingMaster> IndyGunFreak, my font size has gone to 0
[17:58] <WishingMaster> intel onboard
[17:58] <IndyGunFreak> WishingMaster: that doesn't necessarily mean its a graphics driver problem..
[17:58] <fccf> nirvette: follow the instructions after that command sudo m-a update ... prepare ... a-i alsa reboot
[17:58] <IndyGunFreak> WishingMaster: how did you install the driver?
[17:58] <WishingMaster> IndyGunFreak, the moment i installed and restarted the sys
[17:58] <nirvette> fccf: hmm i don't get you
[17:58] <WishingMaster> through repositories
[17:59] <IndyGunFreak> WishingMaster: wel then just go back to the repos and uninstall them.
[17:59] <WishingMaster> IndyGunFreak, but i don't know which ones to uninstall
[17:59] <killazzz> hi
[17:59] <fccf> nirvette: you installed the module assistant .. which is in the instructions ... you need to do the rest of the commands
[17:59] <IndyGunFreak> which one did you install?
[17:59] <BRebey> >> Jaunty/9.04 hangs at "Configuring Network Interfaces..." on boot.  I installed a new driver from RealTek for their RTL8187L chip, and now I get the hang.  Anyone know what I can do to get around this, short of re-imaging my PC?
[18:00] <ratapoil> how can I open a .uif archive?
[18:00] <WishingMaster> IndyGunFreak, what would be the command to reset my drivers
[18:00] <fccf> nirvette: did you Edit /etc/modules and add the line “snd-hda-intel model=auto”
[18:00] <nirvette> no i didn't
[18:01]  * IndyGunFreak sighs...
[18:01] <fccf> nirvette: follow directions
[18:01] <nirvette> so i just copy and paste which lines after the module assistant donno what is installed?
[18:01] <WishingMaster> well is there any way for system restore in ubuntu
[18:01] <ra21vi> uhh, no one is replying on my problem
[18:01] <ra21vi> good

[18:02] <acr0nym> tried everything.. nothing works
[18:02] <ra21vi> ok.. no answer here to my problem.. I think I am not one with Intrepid problem with Network Manager.  :)  thanks for listening to my issues.
[18:02] <fccf> nirvette: those are commands after module assistant (m-a) is installed .. you are running each of those once and rebooting ... edit /etc/modules first as root
[18:02] <Ileden> Is it possible to set up LVM partition on a SD card? I cannot seem to manage it, when I try to use pvcreate I only get an error that device isn't found, or is ingored by the filters. I checked my filters but they seem ok... how do I debug this?

[18:02] <SanityInAnarchy> Is there a way to configure NetworkManager to use another DHCP client?
[18:03] <error404notfound> anyone know of a nice pure commandline antivirus
[18:03] <nirvette> oh gosh, i really donno how to do this
[18:03] <regeya> Ileden: I wouldn't see why not.  You could partition the SD card, set up the new partition as you would a hard drive partition
[18:03] <regeya> never tried it myself tho
[18:03] <fccf> nirvette: I didn't when I started .. perhaps a little reading for you - consider it homework before coming back here www.ubuntupocketguide.com
[18:03] <earthling> SanityInAnarchy, use virtual interface to do that
[18:04] <regeya> Ileden: the only trick would be that you'd have to run vgchange -a y when you plugged in the sd card; other than that, I wouldn't see any problem with that
[18:04] <earthling> SanityInAnarchy, eth0:forDhcp
[18:04] <Ileden> regeya: I currently have one partition, type set as Linux LVM on it.
[18:04] <vigo> man is your friend.
[18:04] <SingAlong> is there a way to disable the boot menu in ubuntu? (i have windows too. which i dont want anyone to know)
[18:04] <kickAss> hi all
[18:04] <regeya> Ileden:  have you looked at the LVM HOWTO?  It's very thorough
[18:04] <fccf> WishingMaster: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg .... then restart X
[18:04] <nirvette> fccf: thanks. but isn't there anything i can do to get the sound back for now?
[18:04] <Ileden> regeya: I tried the vgchange too, but it didn't do anything.
[18:05] <SanityInAnarchy> earthling:  Ok, not sure how that helps with NetworkManager, though.
[18:05] <Ileden> regeya: I've been trying to wade through that. it's indeed thorough :)
[18:05] <killazzz> sing along you are talkin about grub boot loader ?
[18:05] <regeya> Ileden:  Let me see if I understand you right, though.  Did you partition it, set it as LVM in fdisk (or whatever you used) and that's it?  If so, you're not even close yet :->
[18:05]  * regeya looks forward to the day when lvm isn't necessary
[18:05] <Ileden> regeya: um... yes.
[18:05] <fccf> nirvette: until you can understand everything in the eeepc/fixes no... we arn't going to hold your hand ... perhaps Xandros might be a better OS for you
[18:06] <SanityInAnarchy> earthling:  ... are you saying I'd define that in /etc/network/interfaces?
[18:06] <fccf> nirvette: xandros was made for the EEEpc
[18:06] <yasser> hi
[18:06] <acr0nym> nirvette you can also try eeebuntu might save you some headaches

[18:06] <nirvette> fccf: thanks. oh well, maybe i should just try to recover my lost partition and go back to windows
[18:07] <earthling> SanityInAnarchy, on adding that from command prompt is that not showing up in the list of interfaces in the network manager?
[18:07] <fccf> nirvette: you arn't going to get windows back without reinstalling, sorry , ubuntu wiped everything .. if there were a physical harddrive maybe ..  but as it is SSD, it's gone
[18:07] <De-Mentor> HELP I restarted my computer and now when it boots into GNOME i cant see text
[18:07] <Ileden> regeya: isn't registering the partition as physical volume the next step after fdisk?
[18:08] <SanityInAnarchy> earthling:  Adding from command prompt, how?  And again, how does this help my problem? I don't need another virtual interface. I want to use udhcpc with the one I've got, instead of dhclient.
[18:08] <Ileden> regeya: I've been using instructions from this guide https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpLVM-WithoutACleanInstall
[18:08] <tempuser1> vigo: ok, from my understanding, the default is in /var/log/Xorg.0.log then? the 'built-in configuration' part?

[18:10] <De-Mentor> Menu's and application dont show text and some of them show under scores
[18:10] <fccf> Flare-Laptop: nirvette is in over her head ... She should either reinstall windows (provided she has the disk, and a USBCDROM to plug in), or load eeebuntu or xandros on the machine.... She'll have better luck,
[18:10] <SanityInAnarchy> Eh, I guess I can live without NetworkManager. The real problem I'm having is "iwconfig wlan0 essid foo" is working in some places, and not others. 'foo' shows up in iwlist, and setting manually with 'iwconfig wlan0 ap 11:22:33...' works.
[18:11] <SanityInAnarchy> I'm really not looking forward to writing a script to parse the output of iwlist in order to run iwconfig.
[18:11] <Flare-Laptop> fccf: No, I was talking about the person's attitude.
[18:11] <albacker> is there anyone with ATI RADEON x300 been able to make the card work under ubuntu .. work without being slow ?

[18:13] <Ileden> nirvette: a lot of your data seems disapperaed. undertsandable. if you have a friend that's more computer-savvy, you might suggest to her/him to try using TestDisk on your computer - maybe she/he can recover the data.
[18:13] <drakhan> try to go in terminal to the directory where your video is, then write ex, mplayer "video"

[18:16] <xmnt> Anirban1987, via command line or file browser?
[18:16] <Ileden> nirvette: also, I don't recommend using the same computer that contained the data you want to recover.
[18:16] <Ileden> nirvette: or rather, the same hard disk.
[18:17] <fccf> Anirban1987: cli it is 'ls -l'

[18:18] <heterosankari> pidgin is messgner client for ubuntu
[18:19] <Ileden> nirvette: since the system doesn't know about the lost data anymore, it won't know how to avoid messing it up. The idea is that the data is still there, but the system doesn't know where, so it might accidentally step on it during writes to hard disk

[18:26] <kickAss> pranav, there's nothing like unlocking a partition
[18:26] <Steve^> xmnt, he wants to umount it.. I think it's blocked for some reason
[18:26] <syrius> when i try to select a font it crashes
[18:26] <syrius> I am compiling from source to see if that fixes the problem
[18:26] <kickAss> okey
[18:26] <VickiWong> hi guys having a HDD problem. New install (couple days ago) reasonably new HDD
[18:26] <fccf> syrius: compiling what?
[18:27] <VickiWong> everything went black on m ysystemn, then when rebooting dropped to a maintenance shell
[18:27] <tempuser1> fccf: ok - here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/268069/
[18:27] <syrius> kompozor because is crashes on me fccf when I try to select font in  the menu
[18:27] <VickiWong> Error status 4 unexpected inconsistency
[18:27] <pradeep> how do you determine a computer name name by its IP?
[18:27] <xmnt> VickiWong, sounds like a X issue ... can you boot into recovery?
[18:27] <syrius> I have compile programs before like zsnes that use to crash on me but didn't after I compiled them
[18:27] <syrius> I did it they debian way though
[18:27] <pradeep> is there a command similar to nbstat of windows  in linux
[18:27] <syrius> through package manager
[18:27] <Pici> !who
[18:28] <MarderIII> pradeep: nslookup <ipadres> or dig
[18:28] <syrius> http://www.debian.org/doc/FAQ/ch-pkg_basics.en.html
[18:28] <Steve^> pradeep,    dig -x <ip address>    might work
[18:28] <sipior> pradeep: dig -x <ip>
[18:28] <Ileden> I'm trying to set up a single-partition LVM (to test) I've so far created the partition /dev/mmcblk0p1 with fdisk, set the type to Linux LVM, checked /etc/lvm/lvm.conf to see that filters are ok, ran "vgchange -a y" - but when I try to run "pvcreate /dev/mmcblk0p1" it doesn't find the device... am I missing something?
[18:28] <syrius> fccf, ^
[18:28] <syrius> I think this compile is going to take a while
[18:28] <MarderIII> pradeep: nslookup is old command use dig
[18:28] <syrius> the package is rather big
[18:28] <VickiWong> xmnt, I was dropped to a recovery terminal wheen booting, says many errors like 'ata 1 : comreset failed' and 'journal commit I/O error
[18:28] <VickiWong> xmnt, and a bunch of EXT3-fs errors
[18:28] <pranav> fccf, I have killed all those process using /mnt by watching "lsof" but still it says device is busy when I try to umount ?
[18:29] <xmnt> VickiWong, sounds like you've got some issues ... have you considered reloading ubuntu since this is a new install?
[18:29] <pradeep> MarderIII: i did not get the name
[18:29] <xmnt> VickiWong, you can run fdisk or get ubcd to look at the hd ... possible a bad HD
[18:29] <VickiWong> xmnt, I had this similar issue before on my last install of ubuntu, so i formated and reinstalled ubuntu, couple of days later and now im back here
[18:30] <VickiWong> xmnt, so boot into the liveusb and run some HDD checks?
[18:30] <bucky> pradeep see if you have nmblookup.samba4
[18:30] <pranav> I have killed all those process using /mnt by watching "lsof" but still it says device is busy when I try to umount ?
[18:30] <xmnt> VickiWong, I would def. look at the HD as the issue first - not that these things can't happen accidentally but yeah I would get a copy of ubcd and check the hd first
[18:30] <sipior> pranav: is the current working directory of your shell currently located in the filesystem you want to unmount?
[18:31] <fccf> !pm | syrius I am not your buddy
[18:31] <syrius> :(
[18:31] <VickiWong> xmnt, and the best tools for checking out the HDD?
[18:31] <xmnt> fccf, why so syrius ... sorry had to do it

[18:32] <pradeep> MarderIII: its dhcp
[18:32] <zipito> can someone help me with fonts? in the KDE mine fonts at size of 8 looks great- in the GTK applications - they are ugly - no hinting :(
[18:32] <pranav> sipior, I am in /home/pranav (~) which is sda7 but the partition that I want to unmount is WIN-NTFS which is sda5
[18:32] <zipito> where should I check that configuration
[18:32] <xmnt> syrius, read this article:: http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/print/9137708/Opinion_The_unspoken_truth_about_managing_geeks?taxonomyName=Management&taxonomyId=14

[18:34] <fccf> xmnt: that about sums it up
[18:34] <MarderIII> pradeep: what for output does the command "hostname" give?
[18:34] <pradeep> MarderIII:pradeep-laptop
[18:34] <syrius> fccf, why can't I be your buddy?
[18:34] <syrius> we could be pals
[18:34] <IdleOne> !ot > syrius
[18:34] <syrius> I could buy you a ubuntu shirt and we could match :D
[18:35]  * VickiWong sighs
[18:35] <sipior> pranav: you can always try the force switch for umount (-f). that's a bit of a last resort, of course...
[18:35] <Pici> syrius: This channel is for support only, if you are looking for Ubuntu chat, #ubuntu-offtopic is the place.
[18:35] <syrius> okay
[18:35] <syrius> kompozor crashes on me
[18:35] <pradeep> MarderIII: it says pradeep-laptop
[18:35] <syrius> everything I try to select font in the menu it crashes
[18:35] <MarderIII> pradeep: I am sorry, may be i misunderstood. for which ip adres do you want to determine the name? your own machine?
[18:36] <SirMontu> Hey guys, I installed Ubuntu Server and I'm trying to figure out how to install my linksys nic, anyone got a link or directions
[18:36] <fccf> syrius: perhaps you should ask in #kubuntu ... this is for ubuntu support and kompozer is a KDE program

[18:38] <tempuser1> hey all - I'm using Jaunty - how can I find out what my current xorg configuration is? /etc/X11/xorg.conf only has a few lines in it (I assume it's using xorg's auto config) -- /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't show the configuration either -http://paste.ubuntu.com/268078/
[18:38] <robysath> xmnt: man: /usr/local/man /usr/share/man /usr/share/man/man7/man.7.gz
[18:38] <SirMontu> guntbert thanks
[18:38] <MarderIII> pradeep: if the command dig or nslookup doesnt return an answer then the machine isnt registered in dns.
[18:38] <guntbert> SirMontu: good luck
[18:39] <xmnt> robysath, you should have man in /usr/bin/man as well
[18:39] <robysath> xmnt: ls: cannot access /usr/bin/man: No such file or directory
[18:39] <xmnt> we'll yeah it's not there

[18:40] <xmnt> robysath, you need to create a symbolic link from /usr/share/man to /usr/bin/man
[18:40] <xmnt> VickiWong, do you have a 3.5" floppy drive?
[18:40] <VickiWong> xmnt, nope
[18:40] <VickiWong> xmnt, but i amm booting from USB?
[18:40] <robysath> xmnt: does everyone who installs server do this or did i miss something during the install?
[18:40] <xmnt> VickiWong, you need to make sure it's disabled in your bios
[18:41] <xmnt> VickiWong, it has caused me hours of frustration before only to find out that was the issue
[18:41] <VickiWong> xmnt, ahh pok so it's an unre[lated not-big-deal issue? because i have about 50 of each error so far :D
[18:42] <robysath> xmnt: /usr/share/man is a directory, not a binary
[18:42] <pradeep> MarderIII:thanks
[18:42] <xmnt> VickiWong, we'll that's the error your seeing when booting up to your usb ... it's probably nothing to do w/ your HD issues
[18:43] <xmnt> Roberto__, sorry I meant  /usr/local/man
[18:43] <VickiWong> xmnt, hmm it even dropped me to a terminal :/ rebooting
[18:43] <Pici> robysath: Did you install ubuntu-server or ubuntu-minmal?
[18:43] <fccf> tempuser1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenChrome - this is for your hardware ... and should point you in the right direction .. you might also try ... 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-video-openchrome'
[18:43] <Tomasz> hey guys, I need to upgrade my dev server from 7.10 to the current version.
[18:43] <pradeep> MarderIII:wat is nmblookup
[18:43] <pradeep> ?
[18:43] <Tomasz> what's the best way of doing it ?
[18:44] <IdleOne> !upgrade > Tomasz
[18:44] <xmnt> robysath, do you have other commands like cp and ls ?
[18:44] <jrdave> hey guys, I wish somebody could help me with this problem I have, I dont understand why during boot up ubuntu complains: "on battery power, so skipping file system check" when its actually plugged in
[18:44] <ionut_> nmblookup is a tool to lookup hostnames or IP addreses of windows machines
[18:45] <MarderIII> pradeep: samba utility. used to lookup Netbios names of windows machines
[18:45] <ionut_> machines that are using NETBIOS
[18:45] <robysath> Pici: ubuntu-server i386
[18:45] <robysath> xmnt: yes
[18:45] <xmnt> jrdave, my laptop does that as well ... if you find out why let me know
[18:45] <jrdave> xmnt: awesome
[18:45] <Sedna> http://www.darkerradio.com/
[18:45] <robysath> xmnt: all other commands work including aptitude, X windows, etc.
[18:45] <pradeep> MarderIII: for a few machines i get the reply but few i dont

[18:46] <Sedna> 0o
[18:46] <dumnut> hi, i've installed ubuntu and it works nicely, are there packages that you would recommend me install?
[18:46] <MarderIII> pradeep: those that answer are windows machines, the others are firewalled or not running windows
[18:46] <fccf> !de | Sedna
[18:46] <IdleOne> Sedna: please don't advertise in here
[18:47] <pradeep> pradeep: Yeah firewalled
[18:47] <fccf> pradeep: talking to yourself?
[18:47] <robysath> Pici: ubuntu-9.04-server-i386.iso
[18:47] <nandu> How do I mount "W95 Ext'd (LBA)" type of filesystem ?
[18:47] <Welshy-Rob> dose pthon work on ubuntu?
[18:47] <pen1234> http://www.thaiadpoint.com/tap8.1/bin/redir.php?p=274&l=188&u_id=363435
[18:47] <xmnt> robysath, not sure then ... looks like your binary wasn't installed or it was somehow removed
[18:47] <MarderIII> pradeep: for identifying OS's on machines use the program nmap
[18:48] <nandu> How do I mount "W95 Ext'd (LBA)" type of filesystem ?
[18:48] <pradeep> MarderIII: i used that tool nmap to find out the ip's which are active on my network
[18:48] <xmnt> Welshy-Rob, whats pthon?
[18:48] <fccf> Welshy-Rob: it is called python and there is an interpreter available for ubuntu in your repositories
[18:49] <IdleOne> !search python
[18:49] <tempuser1> fccf: ok, I will read through that, thanks -- basically I'm trying to see what exact xorg.conf Ubuntu is using so that I can use it for other distros (Ubuntu is the only one that correctly detects everything)
[18:49] <Tomasz> his.. I'm following the upgrade instructions here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Network%20Upgrade%20from%207.10%20for%20Ubuntu%20Servers%20%28Recommended%29
[18:49] <Tomasz> does not work
[18:49] <pradeep> MarderIII: few ip's on my network are using the resources too much.  It's a COMPAQ P1220 (was: COMPAQ P1100, so it's more or less it's successor). Any hints on how to get it either properly recognised or manually configured to run on it's highest resolution? I aim for the same resolution the prior one had
[18:50] <nandu> Everysince I wrote new grub into MBR in sda1, I cant mount this NTFS drive ? please help
[18:50] <nandu> Everysince I wrote new grub into MBR in sda1, I cant mount this NTFS drive ? please help
[18:50] <xmnt> robysath, no need to reinstall ubuntu
[18:51] <linxeh> nandu: don't do that
[18:51] <nandu> linxeh: Have I lost my windows ?
[18:51] <Tomasz> xmnt: that's like 1 day of work, setting up svn, apache, samba and all the BS .. and I need to get some work done ..
[18:51] <VickiWong> xmnt, not sure if you'll be able to advise on this too, but choosing the 'Try ubuntu first' option on liveusb i get dumped to terminal, running 'sudo startx' just shows a blank screen
[18:51] <linxeh> nandu: I have no idea.
[18:51] <genii> nandu: grub needs to be installed ONLY onto main ..eg sda and NOT sda1 or you scrfew up whatever partition info used to be there
[18:52] <fccf> Tomasz: does sudo do-release-upgrade work?
[18:52] <linxeh> nandu: I suspect whatever you do can be recovered
[18:52] <genii> nandu: You can manually use fdisk to re-tell it what type to be
[18:52] <Tomasz> fccf: nope
[18:52] <xmnt> VickiWong, when you boot up the live CD just after you select a language hit F4 and select safe graphics mode
[18:52] <Tomasz> fccf: Getting a 404
[18:52] <ionut_> fccf i think update-manager -d is what you're looking for
[18:52] <Tomasz> the whole repo is gone ..
[18:52] <Tomasz> for 7.10
[18:52] <xmnt> Tomasz, no-one said linux was easy cheasy all the time ... I work too and sometimes I have to handle my servers
[18:53] <nandu> genii, linxeh : When I do fdisk I only see sda1 and sda2
[18:53] <VickiWong> xmnt, i also got rid of those floppy drive errors thanks :)
[18:53] <Tomasz> I do not understand whyteh whole repo for 7.10 is gone ..
[18:53] <Welshy-Rob> fccf, i have version 3.0 and i tried this "" >>> ~print "Hello world"
[18:53] <Welshy-Rob>   File "<stdin>", line 1
[18:53] <Welshy-Rob>     ~print "Hello world" SyntaxError: invalid syntax
[18:53] <Pici> Tomasz: 7.10 is no longer supported.
[18:53] <Pici> !7.10 | Tomasz
[18:54] <Tomasz> I can't do any apt-get install on that version
[18:54] <xmnt> VickiWong, did you get a copy of UBCD?
[18:54] <De-Mentor> My system stopped showing text on everything
[18:54] <De-Mentor> anyone has an idea how to troubleshoot this?
[18:54] <pen1234> http://www.thaiadpoint.com/tap8.1/bin/redir.php?p=274&l=188&u_id=363435
[18:54] <fccf> Tomasz: 7.10 has reached EOL edit /etc/apt/sources.list and change every line that says archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com ... then run it
[18:54] <Pici> ionut_: no, the -d argument says to upgrade to the latest development release, which is Karmic at this time.
[18:54] <nandu> genii, linxeh : THe 1st is very short, I suppose its HPFS/NTFS and * boot
[18:54] <genii> nandu: You want to run fdisk interactively on /dev/sda   and then change the type of sda1 into the correct one which is like 6 for NTFS.
[18:54] <fccf> Tomasz: run apt-get update first
[18:54] <robysath> Is group 'adm' in /etc/group short for 'admin' group?
[18:55] <genii> nandu: then exit from fdisk with "w" to write the info to the disk
[18:55] <Turbolinux> Hello. I have a notebook computer which it's model is HP Pavilion dv7-1040. I use Ubuntu very well but it doesn't run the notebook computer's speakers. It detected my soundcard (HDA Intel) but it can't play sounds. What can I do?
[18:55] <Pici> robysath: No, adm is for assigning access to things like log files.  The admin group is 'admin'
[18:56] <dumnut> hi, how do i get invited to #ubuntuhelp?
[18:56] <Q|> Turbolinux, when playing a sound or video file with totem, are you able to alter the volume or is it just greyed out?  They set the sound channels.
[18:58] <De-Mentor> I have ubuntu 9.04 with Intel Video Chipset and for some reason when i started my computer today it dosent show Text at all
[18:58] <Turbolinux> Yes, I tried the sound control management program and volume level can be changed. Speakers aren't on mute mode.
[18:58] <fccf> !intel | De-Mentor
[18:58] <lsemple_> is the ati mobility 7000 IGP supported by the ati binary driver ?
[18:58] <nandu> genii: when i fdisk /dev/sda, it gives me a long list of command actions options to do.. ?
[18:58] <angelv> Hi guys...
[18:58] <genii> nandu: You want "t" for change type
[18:58] <fccf> !hi |angelv
[18:59] <nandu> genii: Says 1-14
[18:59] <MarderIII> TurboLinux: mmmmm....
[18:59] <Jkessler> I'm running a jaunty livecd and i'm trying to get a customer's files off of his HD with vista that won't boot.  I'm getting error reading from file: input/output error.  Any ideas?  Thanks
[18:59] <Turbolinux> Can you recommend a program about your last said?
[19:00] <genii> nandu: Since you said sda1 was it, put 1
[19:00] <Q|> Turbolinux, are you running 9.10 Jaunty or a prior version?
[19:00] <nandu> genii: My previous Windows was in sda1 which after installing grub , I suppose have divided into sda1 and sda2, so which do I choose ?
[19:00] <VickiWong> xmnt, sorry what was the command again to scan my HDD?
[19:00] <genii> nandu: L will list them.
[19:00] <angelv> I have a raid5 by software /dev/md0  this raid is active and shared with samba, i need add one disk /dev/sde1, i read with the command  # mdadm /dev/md0 --add /dev/sde1 its possible adding the disk, but i have important information in the raid, any recomendation?
[19:00] <Turbolinux> I'm using 9.04 version of Ubuntu.
[19:00] <julemore> Any London IT Contractor here? I need some advice...
[19:00] <Welshy-Rob> any11 know why i cant use python ?
[19:00] <genii> nandu: Also, M gives you the list of possible commands
[19:00] <MarderIII> Turbolinux: the program "aumix" has helped me before with audio problems.
[19:01] <Turbolinux> How can I run it?
[19:01] <MarderIII> Turbolinux: alsamixer is more ah... curses/screen based
[19:01] <genii> nandu: Did you run fdisk with: sudo fdisk /dev/sda                  or just: fdisk /dev/sda            ?   Without sudo won't take
[19:01] <Pici> Welshy-Rob: Are you getting an error? What are you trying to run?
[19:01] <Q|> Turbolinux, umh, you should be running on PulseAudio then. Maybe you could try to install pavucontrol, open it and look if the volume is not set so low that you can't hear it. Happened to me just yesterday.
[19:02] <MarderIII> Turbolinux: aumix from a command prompt.
[19:02] <nandu> genii: yes sure I did sudo
[19:02] <fccf> Welshy-rob: type python into terminal ... then try your hello world
[19:02] <MarderIII> Turbolinux: and after installing it of course. :-)
[19:02] <Welshy-Rob> fccf, ok
[19:02] <Tomasz> fccf: thanks for help .. replacing archive by old-releases is what I really needed :)
[19:02] <Turbolinux> I will try your recommendations. Thank you.
[19:02] <Pici> Welshy-Rob: python3 doesnt have a print statement.  You'd need to look at the python documentation.
[19:03] <kansan> on ubuntu jaunty.  trying to figure out why a machine i built randomly freezes up within 10 minutes of booting.  i ran memtest 86+ on it overnight and there were no problems.  what else can/should i check?
[19:03] <johnnydeep> hello everybody! I accidentally deleted the apache2 folder from /etc and now my system is not starting as it should anymore... It doesn't open the desktop, instead i just geht the fullscreen command terminal which asks me to login
[19:03] <genii> nandu: OK. So do the L for list them and look for the partition which should be type 6 NTFS but is some other number and partition type is described something like Acorn
[19:03] <xmnt> VickiWong, you can run fdisk to scan it but I would download ubcd at ultimatebootcd.com and run the hard drive scans they have
[19:03] <fccf> Tomasz: glad I could help ... little changes make huge headaches
[19:03] <angelv> comon guys! if i run # mdadm /dev/md0 --add /dev/sde1 no loss any information in my raid?
[19:03] <Welshy-Rob> oh ok
[19:03] <MarderIII> Turbolinux: Hope it helps.
[19:03] <johnnydeep> is this caused by apache? or something else? can I return to the desktop?
[19:03] <ionut_> Does anyone have some experience with the Dell PowerEdge 860 server? I would like to know if I can put more than 8  GB of RAM on it (16 GB or 32 GB)?
[19:03] <Pici> Welshy-Rob: See http://docs.python.org/dev/3.0/whatsnew/3.0.html and #python for further python questions
[19:03] <Welshy-Rob> oh ok
[19:04] <Tomasz> fccf: I still think that ubuntu should allow the old versions to remain usable without tricks :)
[19:04] <clearscreen> ionut_: I suggest you check the specs of the motherboard.. in any way that question is not related to ubuntu
[19:04] <sub[t]rnl> johnnydeep: sounds like a borked xorg.conf.  Log into the shell and issue sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[19:04] <genii> nandu: After you know which one to change, change it with the T option. After, exit with W  which will write the changes
[19:05] <ionut_> I was planning on installing Ubuntu on it...I thought someone would have some experience with it
[19:05] <vasser> hello
[19:05] <rhlin99> Hello
[19:05] <vasser> is it possible to listen to a sound input device ? (say, microphone)
[19:05] <nidelius> anyone have an integrated webcam with lsusb 17ef:4807
[19:05] <vasser> also, how can i know which inputs i have ?
[19:06] <nandu> genii: sda1 is HPFS/NTFS and sda2 is W95 Ext'd (LBA), there's no Acorn ?
[19:06] <nidelius> vasser: terminal -> alsamixer then tab to capture tab
[19:06] <johnnydeep> sub[t]rnl: should I use kernel framebuffer defice interface?
[19:07] <genii> nandu: So then it looks like you didn't install grub to sda1 or sda2 since they have their original types
[19:08] <genii> nandu: The types for the other ones there should be 82 and 83, yes?
[19:08] <vin> im starting to feel Ubuntu woowoo
[19:08] <VickiWong> xmnt, ok i rand fdisk -l from livecd but it is showing only 1 device with 1 partition, i think i need to mount the drive first?
[19:09] <nandu> genii: Yes
[19:09] <vin> so how is everyone today
[19:09] <xmnt> VickiWong, you should have a dropdown box close to the upper left that lets you select the drive
[19:09] <nandu> genii: they are linux and linux swaps
[19:09] <xmnt> VickiWong, I mean upper right
[19:09] <genii> nandu: Thats good then.
[19:09] <fccf> !support | vin
[19:09] <johnnydeep> how can i switch between the fullscreen terminal and my desktop?
[19:09] <VickiWong> xmnt, ah no i cannot startx, even with safe graphics mode, just gives a blank screen, so im running from the command proompt it drops me to
[19:10] <xmnt> ah i.c.
