[19:54] <pgpkeys> err? no it's not. the hardest will be removing grub. you can use the windows install cd to wipe that as well
[19:54] <Soyo> !cron
[19:54] <mcl0vin> llutz: i appreciate your help man, but we are not in twitter here, can you put in a full sentence ?
[19:54] <pgpkeys> sebsebseb ~ hehe sorry you got there first :0
[19:54] <GeekSquid> LaLz Right click on terminal window... Show menubar
[19:54] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: there seems to be another way using a command instead of Windows CD, but I don't know the details
[19:54] <llutz> mcl0vin: are you using lucid?
[19:54] <ripdisk> and btw do i need the x.org  or xfree version of the ati driver
[19:54] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: Have you tired Ubuntu before?
[19:54] <Darkstep> sebsebseb, Can you point me to somewhere ?
[19:54] <LaLz> GeekSquid geez thanks that was easy :D
[19:54] <pgpkeys> doesn't grub have a command to remove itself from the MBR as well?
[19:54] <Darkstep> Yeah. I like it.
[19:54] <Darkstep> a lot!
[19:54] <ManDay> Gnea, audacious devs beg to differ
[19:54] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: so put it on a dual boot?
[19:54] <ripdisk> does ubuntu use x.org or xfree86
[19:54] <ManDay> they say ubuntu does all kind of weird stuff to their software
[19:55] <whitecat> zvacet, i am using vlc... but isn't a permanent solution. because i am having this codec problem with a lot of other softwares... Arista Transcoder for instance... i want this problem gone.
[19:55] <llutz> ripdisk: xorg
[19:55] <m3asmi> what is the home page of oracle ?
[19:55] <Darkstep> YEah but like I said if for some reaseon i decide to remove it ... It's too difficult
[19:55] <ManDay> and as they/ the guy there wasnt looking eager to help me i left him
[19:55] <tripps> iceroot, re-enabling KMS did the trick. Thanks for the, er, help.
[19:55] <LaLz> GeekSquid Is it possible that my computer boot into Ubuntu automatically unless I want Windows to boot then I press some button or something :/ I don't want the option of choosing between OS
[19:55] <mcl0vin> llutz: http://pastebin.com/aKQuS9g8   <--- out put from dpkg -l lir*
[19:55] <Gnea> ManDay: then you should contact the package maintainers of audacious2
[19:55] <GeekSquid> LaLz: running Lucid?
[19:56] <LaLz> GeekSquid Yes
[19:56] <ManDay> Gnea, well i will but i first asked #ubuntu
[19:56] <Darkstep> And I don't have a windows XP CD, so that makes it even more difficult
[19:56] <sebsebseb> ManDay: not sure about Audacious, but sometimes  Ubuntu Developers will edit a program and do stuff that won't go upstream, or won't go upstream any time soon,  like what they have been doing here and there with Gnome, starting with 9.04
[19:56] <pgpkeys> lalz ~ nope, doesn't work that way. either you choose manually or it automatically boots into the first OS in the list, or whatever one you marked as default in the grub.cfg
[19:56] <Gnea> ManDay: yes, you have.
[19:56] <ManDay> thanks sebsebseb Gnea
[19:56] <RadSurfer> I just did a fresh install of 10.4 Desktop. Can someone please tell me how to apt-get install ffmpeg <-- with full mp3 suggport please :)
[19:56] <pgpkeys> darkstep ~ go grab FreeDOS and use it to write a generic MBR to your boot drive. will need a floppy for that though
[19:57] <sebsebseb> ManDay: np
[19:57] <GeekSquid> !medibuntu | RadSurfer
[19:57] <pgpkeys> radsurfer ~ leftyfb.com and see the sectionr egarding that
[19:57] <Darkstep> Ah.. don't have a floppy, pgpkeys
[19:57] <mcl0vin> llutz: i don't think i have lucid
[19:57] <kong> hey guys, quick question, how do i add a date stamp to a file name that im creating using the "compair" command and ">>" ??
[19:58] <pgpkeys> darkstep ~ well, not sure if windows Xp still has the fdisk.exe command saved under Windows\ anymore but you can use that as  fdisk /MBR
[19:58] <ripdisk> the driver only downloads in .rpm form
[19:58] <Gnea> ManDay: cheers
[19:58] <ripdisk> can i even install an rpm
[19:58] <llutz> mcl0vin: does "lsmod|grep lirc" give any output? does "pgrep lircd" give a number?
[19:58] <pgpkeys> if not, google for it as microsoft makes that a free download iirc
[19:58] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: can you sudo -i ... then cd /media/myos ... then ls -al and see anything
[19:58] <crazy6> wow... all the forum posts about this problem, every one of them, the soltion is, "luckily I just had another computer and used that" , or "I was going to reinstall anyway."
[19:58] <Darkstep> pgpkeys, don't think it has it anymore
[19:58] <llutz> mcl0vin: "lsb_release -a" to check your distro-version
[19:59] <ripdisk> i don't see any other option to donwload these ATI drivers in something other than RPM
[19:59] <zvacet> whitecat:  I just thought if totem doesn´t work to use another player
[19:59] <LaLz> pgpkeys Is it safe to have BitchX binary in /bin so I can have it running by typing BitchX in terminal?
[19:59] <Darkstep> is wubi performance really so down ?
[19:59] <ripdisk> i don't know why this isn't automatically installing
[19:59] <pmp6nl> Does anyone know what "script returned error exit status 2" means
[19:59] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: most properly experienced users will recommend against Wubi
[19:59] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, I can see the contents of the partition
[19:59] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: or so it seems anyway
[19:59] <mcl0vin> llutz: http://pastebin.com/PkBW9Jhu
[19:59] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, I have been able to the whole time
[19:59] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, I was just hoping to change the owner of the folder
[20:00] <pgpkeys> lalz ~ somehow I get the feeling you are trolling. read the ubuntu user guide for proper use of your system
[20:00] <sile> hi, i got this exact problem http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-690642.html is the same mp3 player not being recognized in ubuntu, i can only mount it after doing something with gparted ( checking or formatting ). No luck with fdisk either...
[20:00] <mcl0vin> llutz: am on Karmic
[20:00] <richdel> Darkstep: my main concern's with the wubi installs i have installed have been a hard reset can lose all ur data or at least make it difficult to recover
[20:00] <zelhar> Hello
[20:00] <LaLz> pgpkeys I'm sorry I'm around here usually with the name Whisky. But I suddenly got all these questions on my mind that's why I asked.
[20:00] <Darkstep> richdel, I'm not really concerned abou that.
[20:00] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: I understand that your a bit worried about something happening so you  suddenly can't boot up XP,  however maybe you don't need WIndows at all.  There are alternatives for most Windows only apps that are any good.  You can run quite a lot of stuff in Wine as well.
[20:00] <Darkstep> about *
[20:01] <zelhar> I think my source.list is messed up. Can someone post me a sample proper file for lucid ?
[20:01] <kong> Anyone know how to add a date stamp to a filename when creating the file?
[20:01] <Darkstep> sebsebseb I need Windows for programming
[20:01] <crazy6> hrm, new nvidia driver doesn't fix it
[20:01] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: plus if you don't  use Windows,  or at least not a pshyical install,  you get security advantages,  If your RAM can handle it and such, you can virtual machine Windows inside Ubuntu for most apps.
[20:01] <Darkstep> Or I would've switched to linux a long time ago
[20:01] <sebsebseb> Darkstep: need WIndows  for programming ?
[20:01] <pgpkeys> lalz ~ if you are using a package then it already puts it into the spot for ubuntu, if using from source, then put it under /usr/local/ and add /usr/local/bin YOUR user's $PATH
[20:01] <richdel> Darkstep: if you are new to ubuntu, i would recommend it as partitionin is sometimes scary, bu if you are interested in runnin it as ur primary i would suggest using partitioning
[20:01] <pgpkeys> sebsebseb ~ hehe I do.
[20:01] <crazy6> is there a way to do a dist-downgrade, back to 9.10 ?
[20:02] <richdel> Darkstep: for programming???????
[20:02] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, actually I am ok it being root ( I was just having an issue with gparted saying it couldnt access the mount ) but after changing what we did it doesnt seem to have that issue now :)
[20:02] <pgpkeys> I use Qt4 SDK under both windows and linux
[20:02] <whitecat> zvacet, i am using vlc... i'll try out other players too... but i still won't know why this codec stuff isn't working right... downloading w32 right now..will take about 40 minutes to download...slow connection
[20:02] <Soyo> Dual Boot if you afraid to jump in all at once
[20:02] <Darkstep> richdel, developing programs that run on Windows
[20:02] <sebsebseb> Soyo: indeed, except Darkstep is scaired to dual boot
[20:02] <llutz> kong: add somthing like $(date '+%H%M')
[20:02] <sebsebseb> Soyo:  thinks removing Ubuntu would be to much work etc
[20:02] <cfedde> crazy6: that'd oretty much require going to your backups.
[20:02] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: unmount that and remount with the -w option after ntfs, then it will be writable and you can change the permissions
[20:02] <pgpkeys> darkstep ~ you can do that with Qt just as well from Linux, FreeBSD, Mac, or Windows :)
[20:02] <pgpkeys> can target them all :)
[20:02] <bramming9x> crazy6: you should take a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto
[20:02] <whitecat> ikonia, how should i go about investigating why the media player can't use to codec?
[20:03] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, cool :)
[20:03] <Soyo> Or else find an old computer to practice with, linux doesn't need anything fancy to run
[20:03] <pgpkeys> not to mention that you can code csharp from linux as well for windows provided you aren't using windows7 specifics
[20:03] <Darkstep> Separate partition it is. Thank you guys.
[20:03] <tripps> I just screwed up my panel in gnome. What is best way to restore to default? dpkg-reconfigure xserver again?
[20:03] <richdel> Darkstep: as pgpkeys have u considered cross platform applications and i mean in terms of a development platform its hard to beat linux
[20:03] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, is that instead of -t or as well as?
[20:03] <sebsebseb> !panels | tripps
[20:03] <mcl0vin> llutz: ?
[20:03] <kong> llutz, so it would be like "command >> /home/user/filename$(date '+%H%M').txt" ??
[20:04] <llutz> mcl0vin: does "pgrep lircd" give a number?
[20:04] <bramming9x> darkstep: if you're developing in c# you may feel comfortable with mono. its crossplatform and compiles to both windows, mac and linux with no problems. you can also try qt if you're comfortable with c++
[20:04] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: as well as ... -t ntfs -w
[20:04] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, ok what about the -o?
[20:04] <sebsebseb> bramming9x: to late they already left, also C# sucks
[20:04] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: sorry -o rw instead of -w
[20:04] <pgpkeys> bramming9x ~ hehe good, a second to my comment. love it
[20:05] <mcl0vin> llutz: not it doesn't give me anythign
[20:05] <llutz> kong: yes, you'll find more format-strings in man-page
[20:05] <pgpkeys> sebsebseb ~ hah! personal opinion
[20:05] <tripps> sebsebseb, thanks so much!
[20:05] <sebsebseb> pgpkeys: Microsoft development technologies are bad, since not really open source friendly,  this is off topic though
[20:05] <sebsebseb> tripps: your welcome
[20:05] <llutz> mcl0vin: so lircd doesn't run, kernel-modules seem to be loaded.  "sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart"
[20:06] <bramming9x> pgpkeys: i know. i was just trying to be more specific :)
[20:06] <pgpkeys> uhh unless you are using specific PORTIONS of the .Net framework the vast majority of code WILl compile since anything that targets the CLR is of course cross platform
[20:06] <bramming9x> sebsebseb: well i dont like c# either. i prefer c++. but still a lot of people use c# so thats why i mentioned it ;9
[20:06] <o_be_one> good night all :)
[20:07] <mcl0vin> llutz: thats what i get
[20:07] <mcl0vin> llutz: http://pastebin.com/KPdvbqVn
[20:07] <kong> llutz, Thank you, i just need to find what string gives the date now... thanks!
[20:07] <sebsebseb> pgpkeys: .NET is not a good thing to develope for.  Mono isn't a good thing to develope for either, altough some good apps are made in it such as Banshee and F-Spot.
[20:07] <pgpkeys> the CLR is an open spec and the vast majority of code will compile and work just fine. (one of the few places MS could NOT throw their weight around, thank Intel for helping to insure that :) )
[20:07] <sebsebseb> !ot
[20:07] <pgpkeys> sebsebseb ~ :shrug: subjective statement but everyone is entitled to their opinion i guess :)
[20:07] <tripps> ok so one thing fixed, but still laptop freezing hard when trying to suspend. again, didn't do that under jackalope. ideas?
[20:07] <Soyo> So I read about setting up cron jobs. It seems pretty straight forward as far as putting a file in etc/cron.daily or whatever but what commands can I use? Command line stuff or is it in C or something?
[20:07] <sebsebseb> we could go there and continue,  but blah de blah,  I have had these kind of convos quite a lot of times
[20:08] <pmp6nl> anyone know where I can get paid support besides what ubuntu offers
[20:08] <_blackwater_> !microsoftsucksgoaway | pgpkeys
[20:08] <bramming9x> pmp6nl: which country are you from?
[20:08] <sebsebseb> _blackwater_: :)
[20:08] <pmp6nl> USA
[20:08] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ modify the laptop-node config to utilize s2disk/s2both
[20:08] <Plugh> Soyo: You can run anything in a cron job that you can run from a command line
[20:08] <pgpkeys> err laptop-mode even. it's under /etc/laptop-mode/
[20:08] <bramming9x> pmp6nl: sorry dont know any options outside europe
[20:08] <Soyo> cool
[20:09] <pmp6nl> ok thanks anyway bramming9x
[20:09] <tripps> pgpkeys, okeydoke will give it a shot. how does that differ from hibernate?
[20:09] <a3ist> anyone familiar with using imwheel to configure shortcuts for additional mouse buttons that the default gnome manager can't?  Trying to bind switch workspace to the mousewheel tilt
[20:09] <pmp6nl> Does anyone know what "script returned error exit status 2" means
[20:09] <llutz> mcl0vin: so check /etc/lirc/hardware.conf and try to configure the modules suitable for your ir-device
[20:09] <zanzibar82> anyone know how to karmic+microsoft wireless controller for pc and xbox? :( no "how to" working on the web for my distribution... :(((
[20:09] <AEnima1577g> arnieboy, you around?
[20:09] <Plugh> I haven't fixed my gdm startup sound problem but I finally found a web page that helped me fix the problem with no face file showing up on the gdm greeter screen
[20:09] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ s2disk is basically hibernate. the difference is in the use of pm-utils vs. s2disk
[20:10] <mcl0vin> llutz: hahahahahah, that is what i am trying to do, and i can't figure it out
[20:10] <llutz> mcl0vin: what kind of device is it?
[20:10] <noren> hi all i need help with the xserver. after upgrading to lucid its not starting its going black and then freexing
[20:10] <tripps> !laptop-mode
[20:10] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ apt-cache show laptop-mode
[20:10] <Plugh> pmp6nl: Something in the script returned a value of 2
[20:10] <mcl0vin> llutz: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Hauppauge_HVR-1600
[20:11] <pgpkeys> I had the same problem with a buggy as hell suspending to ram or disk until i modified the laptop-mode.conf
[20:11] <pmp6nl> plugh, what is value 2?
[20:11] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ make sure that uswsusp is installed
[20:11] <Plugh> pmp6nl: no way to know without knowing which program in the script returned the value.
[20:11] <pgpkeys>  /usr/sbin/s2* is part of that package
[20:11] <trism> Plugh: what's your gdm sound problem?
[20:12] <llutz> mcl0vin: "modprobe -l *pvr15*"
[20:12] <tripps> pgpkeys, will do. how is the performance (speed to suspend/restore)?
[20:12] <pmp6nl> plugh, its when trying to uninstall bzrtools
[20:12] <Plugh> trism: When the system starts up and gdm appears, no drum sound is played on my desktop. I do get the drum sound on my laptop. I have the problem in Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 on the desktop.
[20:12] <pgpkeys> quite fast actually. takes a system snapshot pretty quickly and suspends rather fast
[20:13] <tripps> pgpkeys, laptop-mode package not installed. installing now
[20:13] <tyce> anyone know how to check the mod_python version currently installed?
[20:13] <pgpkeys> coming out takes longer with KDE to return to usability than gnome but I like kde over gnome so I'll deal with the extra 40 seconds coming back from a hibernate
[20:13] <pgpkeys> equally fast coming back from a suspend to ram (basic suspend mode)
[20:14] <Plugh> pmp6nl: probably some problem with the way the package is currently installed on the machine. hm... You were attempting the uninstall with root perms?
[20:14] <Cheater9> If my wifi card is in monitor mode, can it still be detected if another wifi device scans? If so, can i kill the wifi broadcast/transmit?
[20:14] <trism> Plugh: is sudo -u gdm gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds; true or false?
[20:14] <tripps> pgpkeys, gotcha. though suspend to ram came out of suspend in 2-3 seconds or faster. probably not getting that, will I?
[20:14] <Plugh> trism: already tried that and it made no difference
[20:15] <trism> Plugh: alright, no idea then
[20:15] <Plugh> trism: yup. It is returning true
[20:16] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ dont know, each laptop differs
[20:16] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, got it working :) thanks :)
[20:16] <tripps> pgpkeys, laptop-mode is not a package. do i just set it in acpi-support?
[20:16] <llutz> mcl0vin:try  "sudo modprobe -r lirc_i2c lirc_dev && sudo modprobe lirc_pvr150 debug=1"  check last lines of /var/log/syslog after that command (paste them if you like)
[20:16] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: glad I could help... next!
[20:16] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, carefull with the next part lol :) there is a next but I will be a min or two to figure out how to ask lol
[20:17] <exalt> hello, what happend to the --template option in wicd-cli ?
[20:17] <tripps> installing laptop-mode-tools
[20:18] <smik> What part of the software is responsible for the clipboard functinality in a Free distribution like Ubuntu?
[20:18] <a3ist> anyone familiar with using imwheel to configure shortcuts for additional mouse buttons that the default gnome manager can't?  Trying to bind switch workspace to the mousewheel tilt
[20:18] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: that could go a number of ways from 'sudo rm -f /' <never do this... to sudo apt-get install sl < fun stuff
[20:18] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ hehe busy trying to find WHERE i set that. in what file
[20:18] <VCoolio> smik: X i guess
[20:19] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, yep I know of the first one what does sudo apt-get install sl < fun stuff do?
[20:19] <pgpkeys> did that a couple months ago and forget which file i set it in
[20:19] <sebsebseb> GeekSquid: you don't need to give that command out,  just tell people to be careful with rm, commands or something
[20:19] <smik> VCoolio: you mean the X server is responsible about the clipboard like functionality? do you have any idea about how it works?
[20:19] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: try it and find out ... non-malicous ... cool when you mean to type ls, and it comes out sl
[20:20] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, ok I will try it ;)
[20:20] <Jordan_U> LaLz: With grub2's scripting you can do something like: if [ keystatus --alt ]; then set default="Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda1)"; fi
[20:20] <tripps> pgpkeys, ok so I'm looking at the acpi-support file and looking at various options (i run gnome): dbus-pm, hal, pm-utils, etc. what is the fastest most reliable method? right now SUSPEND_METHODS="dbus-pm dbus-hal pm-utils"
[20:21] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ again, i can't tell you which is the most 'reliable'. reliable is subjective as per individual hardware
[20:21] <tripps> pgpkeys, okeydoke. I'll google and poke around for my laptop model and otherwise test various configs
[20:21] <pgpkeys> usually hal is better, and you can modify pm-utils to utilize the s2disk program and s2both
[20:22] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, hmm I just got -bash: fun: No such file or directory
[20:22] <Crash1hd> lol
[20:22] <pgpkeys> ahh here it is
[20:22] <a3ist> ok different question then.  Anyone know what system file stores the keyboard assignments?  Maybe I can look up the right name for the one I want to use.
[20:22] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: sl is the app
[20:22] <VCoolio> smik: not really, no; what exactly is your problem?
[20:22] <a3ist> But not in gconf-editor
[20:22] <onetinsoldier> hi all
[20:22] <Crash1hd> ahh ok
[20:22] <smik> VCoolio: I am trying to write a multiple copy paste functionality in Ubuntu. I want to know if it is already implemented
[20:22] <Crash1hd> 1 min
[20:22] <kevin01123> How would I go about changing my domain name in Ubuntu?
[20:22] <pgpkeys> install uswsusp and modify /etc/pm/config.d/10_config.conf to read SLEEP_MODULE=uswsusp
[20:22] <rocket16> What is the best 3D Chess in Ubuntu? Is it glChess, or is there a better option there?
[20:23] <Sonderblade> after upgrade to lucid, alt-tab stopped working. how do i get it back?
[20:23] <pgpkeys> that will make it use s2disk and the other s2* apps
[20:23] <tripps> pgpkeys, ok i'll try that too
[20:23] <ikonia> kevin01123: in what respect domain name
[20:23] <pgpkeys> sorry it took so long
[20:23] <guntbert> kevin01123: your hostame?
[20:23] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, cool
[20:23] <ripdisk> i can't get my driver to show up in the hardware drivers window... i know my graphics card is supported, but it still tries to load the drivers for my previous card
[20:23] <VCoolio> smik: I know only of clipboard managers like parcellite and commanline tool like xclip
[20:23] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, saw the train :)
[20:23] <guntbert> *host name
[20:23] <sebsebseb> onetinsoldier: Hi
[20:23] <ripdisk> and i tried to install the drivers manually but they're all .rpm files
[20:23] <kevin01123> ikonia & guntbert: The domain name. I remember other installers asking me for it. Do I not need to set it in Ubuntu?
[20:23] <Pici> smik: glipper and klipper additionally (for gnome or kde)
[20:23] <onetinsoldier> sebsebseb: howdy :-)
[20:24] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, I think I will keep it lol :)
[20:24] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: steam locomotive ... sl
[20:24] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, fun to show others
[20:24] <ikonia> kevin01123: what domain name ?
[20:24] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, makes sense
[20:24] <smik> Pici: VCoolio thanks, let me try those
[20:24] <ikonia> kevin01123: what do you want to do that's not working
[20:24] <a3ist> anyone familiar with using imwheel to configure shortcuts for additional mouse buttons that the default gnome manager can't?  Trying to bind switch workspace to the mousewheel tilt
[20:24] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: cmatrix is fun too
[20:24] <tripps> pgpkeys, i don't have that file but do have 00sleep_module and can set SLEEP_MODULE="uswusp" - same thing?
[20:24] <ripdisk> please, this is the most frustrating thing ever.. having hardware that i KNOW will work and having it not work
[20:24] <pgpkeys> so install laptop-mode-tools pm-utils uswsusp and modify the /etc/pm/config.d/10_config.conf to read SLEEP_MODULE=uswsusp
[20:24] <pgpkeys> yeah
[20:24] <richdel> kevin01123: hostname NEW_NAME
[20:24] <ripdisk> my videocard is supported but i can't get the darn drivers
[20:24] <ikonia> richdel: no - that is wrong
[20:24] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, ok I am a huge matrix fan so I have to try that
[20:24] <SmoothOperator> ikonia: :P
[20:25] <onetinsoldier> i think i've found my forte... anyone need an x-cursor-theme installed from .tar.gz? hehe
[20:25] <guntbert> kevin01123: domain names have no meaning for an OS by itself
[20:25] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ or MAKE the file 10_config.conf and add that line
[20:25] <richdel> ikonia: kevin01123 : sorry thats non permenant
[20:25] <guntbert> !hostname | richdel
[20:25] <pgpkeys> works so that 10_config.conf covers BOTH hibernate AND sleep modes
[20:25] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: blonde, brunette, redhead
[20:25] <SmoothOperator> ikonia: :P
[20:25] <ikonia> SmoothOperator: what ?
[20:25] <tripps> pgpkeys, k. i'll try various methods and let you know what works :)
[20:25] <richdel> guntbert: stand corrected :)
[20:25] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, sweet :) thanks :) its like a screensaver for shell
[20:25] <alket> clear
[20:25] <SmoothOperator> hello which book is good for my to learn linux :P
[20:25] <kevin01123> guntbert: So it doesn't matter? Looking at /etc/resolv.conf, it seems to have it set, but running sudo domainname returns "(none)".
[20:25] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, lol I perfer redheads lol
[20:26] <SmoothOperator> hello which book is good for my to learn linux :P
[20:26] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ ok, wont be able to respoind to me but msging you my email. let me know and I'll work it as best i can to assist. that was a MAJOR PITA for me so..
[20:26] <mcl0vin> llutz: FATAL: Module lirc_pvr150 not found
[20:26] <ikonia> SmoothOperator: this is ubuntu support - do you have a question related to ubuntu
[20:26] <sebsebseb> SmoothOperator: Free PDF download or you can buy as a book
[20:26] <sebsebseb> !manual | SmoothOperator
[20:26] <Pici> ripdisk: I do not believe  that the currenly fglrx driver support the radeon 9800.  You should be getting 3d support from the open source radeon driver that comes with Ubuntu.
[20:26] <sebsebseb> SmoothOperator: also Ubuntu Pocket Guide is good, again a free PDF download, and  you can buy as a book if I remember correctly (or whatever)
[20:26] <pgpkeys> tripps ~ can't respond cause well I dont wanna go through the effort of adding you to my whitelist filter for messaging :)
[20:27] <pgpkeys> sorry
[20:27] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: then you may like cmatrix -C red
[20:27] <ripdisk> Pici: PHew. good thing i don't have a radeon 9800
[20:27] <SmoothOperator> sebsebseb: where i get the book ?
[20:27] <pgpkeys> but isent my email to you so we can converse if there is an issue.
[20:27] <Pici> ripdisk: Or the 9200.
[20:27] <sebsebseb> SmoothOperator: For which?
[20:27] <mcl0vin> llutz: and the modprobe , doesn't return anything
[20:27] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, very cool :)
[20:27] <ripdisk> i took that one out, pici
[20:27] <ripdisk> i put one i knew would work in it
[20:27] <ripdisk> i put my 9600 in it
[20:27] <guntbert> kevin01123: ah -- thats a different thing  -- in /etc/resolv.conf you specify what domain name should be appended to any "plain" host name you are trying to resolve, (and the name servers to query of course)
[20:27] <ripdisk> and i KNOW it works, i've used it before
[20:27] <onetinsoldier> SmoothOperator: i would recommend, "Beginning Linux Programmin" :-) you can find it at a Softpro book store. it's by Wrox Press
[20:28] <pgpkeys> anyone know if beagle and strigi are linked? basically strigi backend is fast and doesn't bog down my system when it's apps run. Beagle does. I lose all responsiveness when beagle runs. Wondering if I can remove beagle without harming strigi and still having desktop search capability (I don't want to uninstall one or the other JUST to find out considering my limited net access for regetting the needed pacakges)
[20:28] <onetinsoldier> SmoothOperator: "Beginning Linux Programming - 4th Editition"
[20:28] <SmoothOperator> onetinsoldier: thanks
[20:28] <mcl0vin> llutz: http://pastebin.com/8sjxpix5
[20:28] <llutz> mcl0vin: what gave the "FATAL .... not found" if modprobe has no output?
[20:28] <mouse> What's the best way to get a printer working for 10.04?
[20:28] <jiffe> is there a way to get federated support in the mysql installed from apt-get ?
[20:28] <pgpkeys> smoothoperator ~ also try to find the free book on gdb
[20:28] <alket> SmoothOperator: First , download Ubuntu Manual it's free and it's very catchy , then you can go for Linux in General
[20:29] <pgpkeys> you'll need that if you're going to code any c/c++ apps
[20:29] <llutz> !msg ubottu find lirc_pvr150
[20:29] <mcl0vin> llutz: 'sudo modprobe -r lirc_i2c lirc_dev && sudo modprobe lirc_pvr150 debug=1' is giving me the FATAL
[20:29] <sebsebseb> mouse: not sure, most printers just work as far as I know, or at least a lot of them,  anyway this may be useful
[20:29] <sebsebseb> !cups | mouse
[20:29] <SmoothOperator> thanks pgpkeys
[20:29] <pgpkeys> welcome
[20:29] <GeekSquid> mouse: depends on the printer, some will autodetect, others wont ... http://localhost:631 is your friend
[20:29] <onetinsoldier> SmoothOperator: you're welcome. it'll teach you bash shell scripting pretty good. and more if you're interested. if you just want to learn your way around the command line is all, try --> http://linuxcommand.org/
[20:29] <SmoothOperator> thanks alket
[20:29] <linuxguy> hi, i wanted to use sudo command without passwd, i edited the sudoers file, as username   ALL = NOPASSWD: ALL , inspite of that it asks for the password
[20:30] <sebsebseb> SmoothOperator: and if you want to learn commands well
[20:30] <ripdisk> soooo... does this mean all of the ati drivers are broken now or what
[20:30] <sebsebseb> !terminal | SmoothOperator
[20:30] <onetinsoldier> linuxguy: you can get a root prompt with this command --> sudo -i
[20:30] <pgpkeys> ahh yeah for bash scripting the abs (apt-get install abs-guide && dpkg -L abs-guide | less) is great too
[20:30] <bullgard> ikonia: I scrutinized several manpages in order to find how to restart the DBus. So far I am coming up with '~$ dbus-launch --exit-with-session'. Do you mean this?
[20:31] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, ok so you know how I have the folder /media/1TB and its owner/group is crash1hd its mounted to /dev/sdc1 and when I run ls -al /media/1TB/ i get the folder inside it called Kids\ Stuff which is also owned by crash1hd (all in all normal) but the problem is when I try to access it from outside ubuntu IE windows or appletv it says that I dont have permision
[20:31] <linuxguy> onetinsoldier: basically i'm writing a script, which has to use sudo commands
[20:31] <pgpkeys> it may be *called* Advanced Bash Scripting Guide, but it covers everythign you'll need to know from beginning to end
[20:31] <ikonia> bullgard: it should be controlled by an init script
[20:31] <ripdisk> okie dokie then
[20:31] <ripdisk> i guess that means "yes, all of the drivers are broken"
[20:31] <llutz> mcl0vin: so you need to get the kernel-module " lirc_pvr150" for  karmic, but it seems not to be available. here on jaunty it is part of the kernel-package...
[20:32] <pgpkeys> linuxguy ~ well if your user that you're running it under is in the visudo file then you can set it so that those specific commands won't need a password (or you can even code to send the password but that requires local storage which negates the usefulness OF a password(
[20:32] <onetinsoldier> linuxguy: ahh, roger. i'm kind of rusty in that area. but i think maybe you want to make the file owned by the root user and then make it 'setuid'
[20:32] <pgpkeys> s/\(/\)/
[20:32] <llutz> mcl0vin: looks like you have to build it yourself
[20:32] <onetinsoldier> linuxguy: someone will be able to help with that i bet
[20:32] <mcl0vin> llutz: how can i do that please
[20:32] <Pici> ripdisk: Can I assume that you've already looked in System>Adminstration>Hardware Drivers?
[20:33] <ripdisk> pici: yes.
[20:33] <ripdisk> pici: i could have sworn the radeon 9600 worked like a year ago for me
[20:33] <linuxguy> onetinsoldier, i know that can be done by sudoers files, i tried it, it asks for password once, after that password is not required, i don't want the system for any password, not even once while using sudo
[20:33] <Hopeless8009> can someone shoot me the command to restart the x
[20:34] <jrib> Hopeless8009: why?
[20:34] <pgpkeys> just use visudo to add that user to the sudoers file, and don't require a password for those specific commands that you want the script to execute (you add the user you are running the script as) and then you just $(sudo cmd -params)
[20:34] <onetinsoldier> linuxguy: roger. i'm not sure how to do that
[20:34] <Pici> ripdisk: Just because it worked a year ago doesn't mean that fglrx still supports it.  My x1400 card used to be supported fglrx, but now I must use the radeon driver.
[20:34] <aaron_> i have a cd-rw. has audio files on it. Used clone cd, with windows 7 to burn the disk. How do I erase the disk?
[20:34] <linuxguy> Hopeless8009, /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[20:34] <llutz> mcl0vin: read http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/405291
[20:34] <Hopeless8009> trying to get changes to apply with my nvida driver
[20:34] <ripdisk> pici: seems like taking backwards steps IMO
[20:34] <Hopeless8009> my gole is to out put to two displays
[20:34] <pgpkeys> actually *I* am rusty, i forget if it's $(sudo cmd -params) or ${sudo cmd -params}
[20:35] <deadpigeon> I'm still in the same boat, booting to recovery mode because normal boot from 10.04 locks up mouse and keyboard, eventually everything locks. This is not a problem with the xserver, it locks up in terminal mode too, after a short period. So far 10.04 total failure for me.
[20:35] <onetinsoldier> Hopeless8009: ok, to restart x... type in --> sudo service gdm stop   ..but wait before you do that!
[20:35] <Hopeless8009> im listening
[20:36] <jrib> Hopeless8009: you used nvidia-settings?
[20:36] <onetinsoldier> Hopeless8009: really, what you should do first is... Ctrl+lt+f1
[20:36] <pgpkeys> makes it execute a subshell and calls sudo passing the command and its params to sudo. as long as the user the script is executing as is in the /etc/sudoers file and doesn't require a password for those commands you make it execute, it'll run just fine
[20:36] <onetinsoldier> Hopeless8009: really, what you should do first is... Ctrl+Alt+F1
[20:36] <MACscr_lappy> on my ubuntu system, why would i get different video results based on if i just booted up the system regular versus having it booted up, killing gnome, then doing startx? Basically when i boot it regular, i only get 2 monitors and i get all 3 if i manually start x
[20:36] <csmrfx> anyone vever run karmic on apple G5?
[20:36] <deadpigeon> Even boot to a livecd with 10.04 lucid, it locks up before I can set up partitions.
[20:36] <Hopeless8009> yes jrib i am using nvida settings
[20:36] <mcl0vin> llutz: /me reading
[20:36] <jrib> Hopeless8009: just run sudo service gdm restart then
[20:36] <Hopeless8009> what is control alt F1
[20:37] <csmrfx> I wonder if I can run this 386 karmic from an external drive on a apple desktop G5 machine somehow?
[20:37] <onetinsoldier> Hopeless8009: that will take you to a virstual console, where you log in, then do the command there -->  Ctrl+Alt+F1  ...then do, sudo service gdm start
[20:37] <Hopeless8009> jrib do you mind if i PM you
[20:37] <onetinsoldier> virtual*
[20:37] <jrib> Hopeless8009: better to stay in the channel so everyone can help
[20:37] <aaron_> i have a cd-rw. has audio files on it. Used clone cd, with windows 7 to burn the disk. How do I erase the disk
[20:37] <Hopeless8009> jrib can you brake down that command for me plz
[20:37] <Hopeless8009> im new and i would like to understand it
[20:38] <calibre> Hello I am on ubuntu and the sound on my computer wont work?
[20:38] <deadpigeon> I've heard of multiple people with this issue, but how are they fixing it? Some say they reinstall. If the livecd is locking up too, there's some serious issues... should have never updated. Looks like I'll continue searching for a fix, but I feel like I'm going to be dumping Ubuntu...
[20:38] <jrib> Hopeless8009: type: service --help
[20:38] <llutz> aaron_: "cdrecord blank=fast"
[20:38] <ripdisk> well i guess i'm stuck with the ubuntu radeon driver... however i get that to work
[20:39] <aaron_> llutz: what's that mean??/
[20:39] <llutz> aaron_: that means "blank the disk"
[20:39] <jrib> Hopeless8009: basically: [sudo] runs the command with superuser privileges, [service] is a command that allows you to control services, [gdm] is the service you want to control, and [restart] is the action you want gdm to take
[20:39] <calibre> Hello I am on ubuntu and the sound on my computer wont work? can anyone help?
[20:39] <Hopeless8009> ok thank you very much jrib
[20:40] <xangua> calibre: is that a question or a statement¿
[20:40] <xangua> !ask
[20:40] <aaron_> llutz: wont allow blanking. Can read disk just nothing else
[20:40] <calibre> xangua: statement./
[20:40] <calibre> xangua: It wont come on.
[20:44] <rab13s> #sudo rm -rf /
[20:44] <rab13s> that cleans the drive right?
[20:44] <rab13s> takes out my viruses
[20:44] <sebsebseb> !danger
[20:45] <onetinsoldier> i think i've found my forte... anyone need an x-cursor-theme installed from a .tar.gz file? hehe
[20:45] <iceroot> rab13s: that does nothing
[20:45] <coNET> Hi guys, I'm trying to redirect traffic from a IP address (not an interface) and I'm having a few issues doing so. Could anyone tell me what iptables rules I'd need to do in order to achieve redirecting all ports on a certain ip address to another address?
[20:45] <iceroot> rab13s: not with bash
[20:46] <Hopeless8009> jrib: that worked but it didnt do what i needed it to can you help
[20:46] <tripps> s2ram is fast
[20:46] <sebsebseb> rab13s: if you get the command write, it will delete the whole of Ubuntu
[20:46] <sebsebseb> rab13s: right not write above
[20:46] <rab13s> thats not what I want
[20:46] <tripps> s2disk works well too. now to get s2ram to not bork my touchpad coming out of standby
[20:46] <rab13s> I want ext 4
[20:47] <sebsebseb> rab13s: be careful with rm commands, or you can do stuff,  that you won't want to do at all, such as deleting most/all of Ubuntu
[20:47] <aaron_> llutz: "cdrecord blank=fast".....do i type this in the terminal?????
[20:47] <rab13s> thank you all
[20:47] <sebsebseb> rab13s: which version of Ubuntu?
[20:48] <_blackwater_> coNET port forwarding from an outside interface to an internal host, rather?
[20:48] <tripps> pgpkeys, if I set SLEEP_MODE to uswsusp will that work with the normal suspend lid close? note I have to sudo s2ram --force since my machine isn't in the database.
[20:48] <Hopeless8009> im trying to output a diffrent display to my TV I want to output thow HDMI and i want sound to go thow also can someone help
[20:48] <lordship> trying to load crimson editor, surely ubuntu supports it. How do i do it. Have the zip file, but can't run .exe file
[20:48] <onetinsoldier> rab13s: use parted/gparted or cfdisk to repartition your hard drive into ext4 partitions, then format the new partitions. you'll need to run the livecd installer of course
[20:48] <coNET> _blackwater_, I believe so. I want to redirect one of the IP addresses on my dedicated server to an inside (Network) IP.
[20:49] <LogicalDash> lordship, that is probably a Windows executable. You might get it to work with Wine. http://winehq.org/
[20:49] <sebsebseb> rab13s: to get an Ext4 partition,  get rid of your Ext3  (assuming it's that)  and make a new Ext4 partition and use that
[20:49] <danutz> hello guys,,does anyone has some tutorials about dns?
[20:49] <_blackwater_> coNET which port on the inside lan is to be contacted?
[20:49] <rodrigo__> s
[20:49] <jiffe> is there a way to get federated support in the mysql installed from apt-get ?
[20:49] <coNET> _blackwater_, I'm trying to redirect all ports
[20:50] <Hopeless8009> Sebsebseb do you remember helping me download Kdm a few days back
[20:50] <sebsebseb> Hopeless8009: sort of when you say that I guess
[20:50] <rab13s> ahh gparted is what she said
[20:50] <AL1x> Hello, i got a problem, ./eggdrop: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[20:51] <sebsebseb> ah  not rodrigo__   rab13s  see above
[20:51] <Hopeless8009> sebsebseb: i guess you help a lot of people. i have a new question if you have time
[20:51] <sebsebseb> !ask | Hopeless8009
[20:51] <AL1x> sebsebseb oh when you have time let me know so i can ask you
[20:52] <mcl0vin> can someone please help me ....since Lirc_pvr150 was depreciated out in 9.10 , i followed this tut http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/405291 "thanks to llutz" , after i am done i tried to stop and restart it but i still get 'fail"
[20:52] <rocket16> Is there a way to have a TV Scheduling Application for India on Ubuntu? Or some way to do so?
[20:52] <AnAnt> Hello, sometimes sound just vanishes on Lucid, how can I fix that ?!
[20:52] <lordship> thanks, i'll try that. meanwhile, is there a better text editor for linux than the gedit that comes with the install? i can't get gedit to take font faces like arial.
[20:52] <Pandemicfox> hi chat
[20:52] <sebsebseb> AL1x: what?  I just saw you do some issue just now, and I don't know about that
[20:52] <AL1x> sebsebseb, ./eggdrop: error while loading shared libraries: libtcl8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory you have no idea abotu this?
[20:52] <AnAnt> I said the volume to max , and of course make sure that sound is unmuted
[20:52] <sebsebseb> AL1x: what's eggdrop?
[20:52] <AnAnt> I even tried pkill pulseaudio (that used to work in karmic)
[20:52] <whitecat> ikonia, zvacet ...mplayer plays the sound from the mp4 but not the video... gnome-mplayer plays it flawlessly! ...mplayer doesn't but gnome-mplayer does!!??? ...and oh, they cannot play ogv! ... ... (zvacet, installing w32codecs doesn't help)
[20:52] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: you sure the file it's looking for is installed?
[20:53] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: try.... sudo updatedb
[20:53] <AL1x> onetinsoldier, i got tk/tcl8.4 installed
[20:53] <AnAnt> but none of that gets the sound back, only a reboot fixes it
[20:53] <_blackwater_> coNET in that case maybe look at /etc/sysctl.conf
[20:53] <AnAnt> anyone knows a solution for this ?!
[20:53] <Pandemicfox> my computer came with vista and i installed ubuntu 9.10 64 bits in it and now it is giving me an error too much work for" irq18 " i dont know what that means :(
[20:53] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: then...  locate libtcl8.4.so
[20:53] <richdel> AnAnt: have u tried use the command alsamixer?
[20:53] <_blackwater_> coNET and un # net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
[20:53] <aaron_> i have a cd-rw. has audio files on it. Used clone cd, with windows 7 to burn the disk. How do I erase the disk? Says select disk but not letting me select anything???
[20:53] <sebsebseb> Hopeless8009:  What's the issue?
[20:53] <AnAnt> richdel: yes
[20:53] <AL1x> onetinsoldier /home/tcl8.4.15/unix/libtcl8.4.so
[20:53] <_blackwater_> coNET you're talking about outside traffic inbound right?
[20:54] <AL1x> live/cow/home/tcl8.4.15/unix/libtcl8.4.so
[20:54] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: ok, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[20:54] <AL1x> i got lots of paths in the locate
[20:54] <coNET> _blackwater_, yes.
[20:54] <Hopeless8009> sebsebseb: I would like to set up a 2nd monitor. in outputing thow HDMI and i would like sound to go thow also
[20:54] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: you should have the following --> /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so.0
[20:54] <_blackwater_> coNET nevermind sysctl.conf then
[20:54] <AL1x> onetinsoldier Ubuntu 8.04 32/64bit
[20:54] <AL1x> yes
[20:54] <AL1x> i have it
[20:54] <AL1x> sr/lib/libtcl8.4.so.0
[20:55] <hannes815> hay, I got a problem with my dsl landline. it works fine as long as I start it with ppoeconf. but isn't there an easier way? so it just connects?
[20:55] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: you should have --> /usr/lib/libtcl8.4.so.0   ok, you DO have that file? if not, make a symlink for it in /usr/lib
[20:55] <mcl0vin> can someone please help me ....since Lirc_pvr150 was depreciated out in 9.10 , i followed this tut http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/dev/405291 "thanks to llutz" , after i am done i tried to stop and restart it but i still get 'fail"
[20:55] <Kai___> oops.
[20:55] <AL1x> onetinsoldier, yeah i do have it
[20:55] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: ok, hmmm
[20:56] <sebsebseb> Hopeless8009: Ok well I don't know how to set up Dual Computer Geek Monitors in Ubuntu
[20:57] <aaron_> i have a cd-rw. has audio files on it. Used clone cd, with windows 7 to burn the disk. How do I erase the disk? Says select disk but not letting me select anything???
[20:57] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: i don't know what's wrong then. i would need to see the eggdrop script i think. i would look at it to try and see if i could tell where... it's looking for the 'libtcl8.4.so' file
[20:57] <_blackwater_> # iptables -A INPUT -m conntrack --ctstate ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT / # iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
[20:57] <Hopeless8009> sebsebseb hay NP thanks for just trying
[20:58] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: or is eggdrop a compiled binary?
[20:58] <VCoolio> AnAnt: you tries restarting alsa I guess? and try to mute some stuff in alsamixer; that fixes sometimes; (i have to mute s/pdif after mplayer crash to get sound back
[20:58] <coNET> _blackwater_, that looks like it's only for port 80?
[20:58] <_blackwater_> coNET you will change --dport 80 to other ports desired to be reached from the ouside,
[20:58] <tripps> is it normal to get "permission denied" when running s2ram? I have to run sudo s2ram to get it to do anything. i thought these were userspace tools.
[20:58] <sebsebseb> Hopeless8009: Jokes don't always go across well on IRC, I am joking a bit there, since most computer users only have one monitor for a computer, where as quite a lot of computer geeks/nerds these days, will do a dual monitor
[20:58] <coNET> _blackwater_, is there not a way to redirect all traffic?
[20:59] <_blackwater_> i typically don't do that so I wouldn't know.
[20:59] <coNET> Ah, alright. How would I make it redirect only from one IP address, though? -s w.x.y.z?

[21:00] <AL1x> had to fix path
[21:00] <AL1x> only
[21:00] <sebsebseb> Hopeless8009: hence why it didn't seem funny for you
[21:00] <Hopeless8009> when you messages me it comes up red how do you do that it helps seberate it
[21:00] <vigge_sWe> can I somehow skip these password popups everytime I try to change any settings or login, they are annoying :S
[21:00] <RadSurfer> Ubuntu might be nice, but this old AMD 800mhz sure is dragging arse!
[21:00] <onetinsoldier> AL1x: cool :-)

[21:04] <zanzibar82> help configuring gaming controllers on karmic?
[21:04] <Crash1hd> sorry I should say how do you make a symlink in shell to a folder
[21:04] <sebsebseb> RadSurfer: no  don't think so
[21:05] <sebsebseb> RadSurfer: this is not Windows, only  need to re boot for major stuff, such as a new kernel
[21:05] <Crash1hd> never mind found it :)
[21:05] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: yeah.. i think you'd need ro reboot. well, depends. you can stop these services manually on the command line. use the 'service' command as root
[21:05] <lordship> ok i'm dumb here. doesn't the text editor set the font? gedit doesn't do that when i use it.
[21:05] <mcl0vin> !Lirc
[21:05] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: for example...   sudo service cups stop
[21:05] <pgpkeys> hehe only reason I reboot into windows is for my games, and for coding cross-platform apps :)
[21:05] <antonio_> it's doen't work
[21:06] <chrisology> How can I enable the webcam function in empathy (its greyed out)?
[21:06] <pgpkeys> i'll be damed if i give up my MOHAA 10 Year Anniversery game Pack :)
[21:06] <sebsebseb> pgpkeys: screw Windows, make more Linux only apps that  are good :)
[21:06] <antonio_> i can see the escritory but not the aplication menu, time, exit booton,..
[21:07] <pgpkeys> sebsebseb ~ hah, considering the library uses windows and I've been coding a bibliography program, I'll have to say ummm nop
[21:07] <Hopeless8009> sebsebseb i got kiked off sorry
[21:07] <yaaar> hmm. has anybody had trouble pasting things into minicom sessions? i'm building the config for a cisco router, connected via serial @ 9600bps, and i think it's pasting things too fast for the port to catch up...when i paste something really long i get a bunch of missing chunks
[21:07] <pgpkeys> sebsebseb ~ the app is written for mac, windows, and linux using Qt4 and qmake. i think that's a good enough contribution to society :)

[21:08] <jonsmith1982> is there some point and click software to create dvd videos?
[21:08] <onetinsoldier> jonsmith1982: i've never used it... but, 'handbrake' maybe?
[21:09] <Hopeless8009> sebsebseb,  ok
[21:09] <Crash1hd> hmm ok this is odd I made a symbolic link as my user with ln -s /media/ /home/crash1hd/Drives yet when I try to access it in windows i get the error that I dont have permision?
[21:09] <pgpkeys> hehe apt-cache search dvd shows a ton
[21:09] <pgpkeys> (read the right hand side which gives a short description of each app)
[21:09] <danutz> I`m wondering why
[21:09] <onetinsoldier> jonsmith1982: if you're using lucid and you want handbrake, there's a ppa repository that has a .deb file for it
[21:10] <Hopeless8009> sebsebseb,  did you find anything out about the dule moniters
[21:10] <AnxiousNut> is there a preinstalled vnc client in 10.04?
[21:10] <jonsmith1982> need it to install on slackware tbh.
[21:10] <richdel> jonsmith1982: ive heard devede suggested
[21:11] <jonsmith1982> is all this gnome specific?
[21:12] <onetinsoldier> jonsmith1982: not sure.. probably
[21:12] <sebsebseb> Hopeless8009: no there are some right geeks that come here, that have dual monitors working with Ubuntu, that will be able to help you,  however I don't know when these people will be active in here
[21:12] <onetinsoldier> !info devede

[21:15] <benzema> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/stebbins/handbrake-snapshots/ubuntu lucid main
[21:15] <sebsebseb> lordship: you can directly upgrade to 10.04, but not 9.10
[21:15] <rocket16> lordship: But 10.04 LTS has been released. So, why not upgrade to that?
[21:15] <onetinsoldier> guntbert: roger.. thanks. i did it in priv msg to ubottu. handbrake is not in karmic apparently. thank you though!
[21:15] <sebsebseb> lordship: also you won't get Ext4 file system or Grub 2 on upgrade, but you don't need those
[21:16] <guntbert> onetinsoldier: :-) I figured as much but couldn't resist either
[21:16] <sebsebseb> lordship: 8.04 is better than 10.04 in certain ways, it really is
[21:16] <onetinsoldier> jonsmith1982: here's lucid ppa for handbrake if you're interested --> https://launchpad.net/~stebbins/+archive/handbrake-snapshots
[21:16] <onetinsoldier> guntbert: :-)
[21:16] <lordship> sebsebseb:ok up to 10.04, is there an easy pathway? I'm new to ubuntu
[21:16] <sebsebseb> lordship: how new?
[21:17] <lordship> like 4 months
[21:17] <sebsebseb> lordship: ok if your that new, why  did you start on 8.04?
[21:17] <lordship> sebsebseb: that's what downloaded of the cd I have.
[21:18] <sebsebseb> lordship: ok, but four months ago,  the Ubuntu website would give the option.  to download 8.04 or 9.10
[21:18] <sebsebseb> lordship: most new users would have gone with 9.10, however nevermind,  it's ok that you went with 8.04,  since as a result you have been using one of the best versions of Ubuntu,  and no 9.10 isn't one of those.
[21:19] <Crash1hd> Can you have more then 1 entry on a path in the smb file?
[21:19] <tamir> Hi - i use ubuntu 10.04 and I want to watch a .mkv with softsubs from right to left... i tried : totem vlc MPlayer SMPlayer with no luck Im pretty sure i got it working on 9.10 cant remember how ...
[21:19] <sebsebseb> lordship: why do you want to upgrade now?  Newer is not always better.
[21:19] <sebsebseb> lordship: and 8.04 runs out of support end of April next year on the desktop no more security updates.  and  10.10 comes out on October 10th 2010,  I have a feeling that will be a pretty good release
[21:20] <sebsebseb> lordship: from what I know about it
[21:20] <toughguy> Can any one tell me how to gey my apache to serve from boot and still allow multi user account on ubuntu?
[21:20] <toughguy> *get
[21:21] <jrib> toughguy: what do you mean by "still allow multi user account on ubuntu"?
[21:21] <lordship> sebsebseb: thanks. I guess my issue is that i'm using gedit to write html code, and it won't allow any font face changes. size, yeah, but sometimes size doesn't matter.
[21:21] <sebsebseb> lordship: might be a good idea to first try 10.04 in a virtual machine, if your computer can handle that so enough RAM for example, then decide if your going to upgrade to 10.04 or not.
[21:22] <toughguy> I have multiple users but the websites only seem to work if I log into my account
[21:22] <jrib> toughguy: umm, how are you running apache?

[21:22] <toughguy> umm umm on a computer

[21:23] <toughguy> Yeah it
[21:23] <jrib> !who | toughguy
[21:23] <sebsebseb> lordship: loads of programs you can  use instead  for HTML code in Ubuntu
[21:24] <jrib> toughguy: "websites onle seem to work if I log into my account"?  What does that mean?  What exactly doesn't work?  Where are the files being stored exactly?  Is your home encrypted?
[21:24] <tamir> 2nd try - i use ubuntu 10.04 and I want to watch a .mkv with softsubs from right to left... i tried : totem vlc MPlayer SMPlayer with no luck Im pretty sure i got it working on 9.10 cant remember how ...

[21:24] <jrib> tamir: maybe try #videolan for vlc and #mplayer for mplayer

[21:25] <jrib> toughguy: and I don't know what "set them up in" means
[21:25] <zanzibar82> !joypad
[21:26] <onetinsoldier> shouldn't that say "10.04" instead of "9.04"?

[21:27] <sebsebseb> lordship: you don't need to thank the bot, she is a computer program not a person
[21:27] <jrib> toughguy: what does "set them up in" mean?
[21:27] <tripps> jrib, i thought i did (psmouse). i'll try again. is there another module I should look for?
[21:27] <sebsebseb> oh to late he already left

[21:29] <jrib> toughguy: no, I am asking questions so I can actually understand what is happening.  I am not there with you.  The questions I ask are because you are saying things that are clear to you, but I am not standing next to you. Avoid using ambiguous pronouns
[21:29] <ole_> hi
[21:29] <sebsebseb> onetinsoldier: Done this kind of thing before :)

[21:30] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, how much do you know about samba
[21:30] <toughguy> I have mulitple user accounts on my lucid, how can I get apache to serve regardless of if any/or which of these is logged on?
[21:30] <jrib> toughguy: yes, apache is usually completely unrelated to your user logging in.  My only guess was that you had files in your home and it was encrypted.  You've ruled that out however.  Thus my other questions.
[21:30] <lock> are you serious?  Is there really no other way to revert back?
[21:30] <ole_> toughguy: i am not sure, but why not sudo su - ?
[21:30] <k0d3g3ar> toughguy, Apache typically loads on a server at boot up time as a service to its host computer.  If you have installed it under a single user account, its probable that its only starting up when that user account logs in.
[21:30] <tripps> jrib, if i rmmod the correct module, the mouse will stop working, correct?
[21:31] <onetinsoldier> lock: serious
[21:31] <lock> that just seems outrageous...i thought ubuntu had it together
[21:31] <tripps> jrib, ok that worked (rmmod psmouse). What should I depmod?
[21:31] <toughguy> ok, thanks for sharing your thoughts, I am guessing that it is because of my home folder as I have symlinks in my /var/www/ to folder in my home folder. Do you think that might be it?
[21:31] <onetinsoldier> lock: perhaps you could fix your 10.04 vbox issues

[21:36] <philw> Kartagis, probably an option in the BIOS?

[21:55] <maco> wipt: nano is not like vi. nano isnt modal
[21:55] <timposey> I know there is a thread about this, but has anyone here been able to share files over the network with 2 ubuntu 10.04 computers.  Personal File Sharing does not work because it says something is not installed.  Nobody on the threads seems to know what is supposed to be installed that is not.
[21:55] <wipt> frxstrem: modal? ....
[21:55] <woolala> don't use vim
[21:55] <maco> frxstrem: hit "i" to get into insert mode
[21:55] <onetinsoldier> vim ftw!
[21:55] <woolala> vim is ruined by chinese
[21:55] <maco> frxstrem: "esc" to get back out of it
[21:55] <wipt> woolala: ?
[21:55] <maco> wipt: modal... as in, it has modes. insert mode and command mode
[21:56] <frxstrem> maco: oh, right :) well, nano is much easier to use anyway
[21:56] <wipt> maco: yes, yes, i know - I was just questioning his question :P
[21:56] <maco> frxstrem: unless you have regular expressions you wanna run in it ;-)
[21:56] <waffel> hey guys im new to ubuntu/linux scene i was wondering what some of your guys' favorite program/apps are. oh and im new to IRC (bare with me)
[21:56] <wipt> waffel: FreeBSD, that's a pretty cool app ;D
[21:57] <waffel> what is "freeBSD"
[21:57] <waffel> ?
[21:57] <GeekSquid> timposey: there are lots of ways to do this, 1 suggestion ... sudo apt-get install openssh-server on one and use Places>Connect to server, Server Type: SSH ,,, and have access to the server
[21:57] <woolala> 'don't buy their books', then you have won a half
[21:57] <frxstrem> waffel: VLC, the best program for media playback *ever*
[21:57] <RoDiMuS-X> Waffel: freebsd is another linux distro
[21:57] <wipt> waffel: It's like Darwin, but with less Apple
[21:57] <wipt> RoDiMuS-X: not linux :P
[21:57] <giselher> waffel: an Operating System
[21:57] <snk_>
[21:57] <waffel> i LOVEEE VLC i use it on my windows vista and 7
[21:57] <woolala> bsd is not a kernel...
[21:58] <RoDiMuS-X> wipt: meant to add like
[21:58] <k0d3g3ar> RoDiMuS-X, FreeBSD <> Linux
[21:58] <giselher> woolala: kernel and os
[21:58] <woolala> bsd is like a borg
[21:58] <woolala> bsd do things in its own ways
[21:59] <woolala> s/do/does
[21:59] <tado> when i download torrent files my wireless disconnets constantly, but it seems to happen only on my network and only to my laptop. any help?
[21:59] <RoDiMuS-X> woolala: yeah but less intelligent
[21:59] <osmosis> i have libapache2-mod-php5  installed, but apache is loading php files like they are text.
[21:59] <wipt> RoDiMuS-X: that's very subjective
[21:59] <RadSurfer> CAN'T ACTIVATE Shared Files/etc because "Required Apps not installed" <--- How do I resolve this please? What "Required Apps" I did install Samba/etc.
[21:59] <RoDiMuS-X> wipt: subjective to what?
[22:00] <sevenseeker> I just tried to install ubuntu 10.4 on my Dell Studio system, now it will not boot at all, but wants a PXE setup.  It claims 'No module found' on the initial bootup.  Any ideas how to fix this?
[22:00] <timposey> Geeksquid, but does that mean that every computer on the network is going to have to be setup as another server?   Is there some way to make the location pull lat/long from gmap when a node is saved? I can't figure out how to get it to work.
[22:00] <RadSurfer> I'll try it
[22:00] <jrib> dogmeat: no.  Maybe use xpra
[22:01] <xloosescrewx> hello
[22:01] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: lol... don't be frightened :-)
[22:01] <xloosescrewx> i need to restore the pannel menu bar
[22:01] <bastid_raZor> !panels | xloosescrewx
[22:01] <waffel> hey i have a question, why does it 1. show u there like email or w/e and 2. there IP on the "vroomfondle" and when they sign in and out?
[22:02] <RadSurfer> All appears normal with 'apt-get -f intall'
[22:02] <MACscr_lappy> _blackwater_: how to i tune Xinerama?
[22:02] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: roger... hmm. what are you trying to run?
[22:02] <RadSurfer> I want to enable file/folder sharing
[22:03] <xloosescrewx> thanks
[22:03] <osmosis> frxstrem, yes, i restarted apache
[22:03] <waffel> anybody?
[22:03] <Crash1hd> Does anyone know why vnc requires sticky keys to be activated to use the shift key?
[22:03] <xloosescrewx> how do i get into terminal without a pannel to choose from
[22:04] <bastid_raZor> xloosescrewx: alt+F2   then type gnome-terminal
[22:04] <RoDiMuS-X> xloosescrewx: alt-f2 bash
[22:04] <RoDiMuS-X> opps
[22:04] <frxstrem> osmosis: well, you may  want to manually make sure that apache is set up with the PHP module - I'm not exactly sure how to do that, but I'm sure you can find some guides online...
[22:04] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: do you have the following installed? try this command...  dpkg -l samba samba-common samba-bin gadmin-samba
[22:04] <xloosescrewx> ok im confused, where is the bash key?
[22:05] <RadSurfer> hang on, its on another box from this one
[22:05] <onetinsoldier> xloosescrewx: there is no bash key
[22:05] <RoDiMuS-X> xloosescrews: no its alt-f2 gnome-terminal
[22:05] <xloosescrewx> ook
[22:06] <osmosis> how do I change which kernel ubuntu is using. I want to switch to  linux-virtual
[22:07] <Crash1hd> Anyone know of a good alternative to vnc for windows to access ubuntu through ssh
[22:07] <heoa> Lynx users? Where are the cookies saved? I need it for: "$ wget --certificate=cookie https.*"
[22:07] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: ok, roger. i'm probably not the best one to try and help with this. i'm only on a single lonely computer and have never really tried to set up file/folder sharing
[22:07] <ruthgard> osmosis, have you tried to just install the package?
[22:07] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: behind a firewall?
[22:07] <bastid_raZor> osmosis: install that kernel from synaptic
[22:07] <grumbly> I need help creating a PHP script... I know this isnt the right place to ask, but I can't talk in ##php and I only have irc through freenode's webchat...
[22:07] <SwedeMike> osmosis: enter the grub2 menu at boot, there you can chose from the installed kernels, which one to boot.
[22:07] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, yes I am behind the firewall / router
[22:07] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: teamviewer.com
[22:07] <onetinsoldier> SwedeMike: i'd choose the one with the highest version number
[22:07] <grumbly> anyhow, I need some help making a php script for people to upload a file to a web host, and when the upload is complete, an email gets sent to me...
[22:08] <osmosis> ruthgard, yes...i installed linux-virtual. it still is using the old kernel though.
[22:08] <onetinsoldier> SwedeMike: never mind me... pfft :)
[22:08] <GeekSquid> grumbly: phpform will do what you want
[22:08] <grumbly> I have ftp access on the host, but I have NO skill when it comes to PHP or coding anything really
[22:08] <RadSurfer2> onetinsoldier: can you please copy/paste that  dkpg -l    line for me to try?
[22:08] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, different
[22:08] <ruthgard> osmosis, you could try to edit the grub file and rerun grub, not sure if that is the "ubuntu" way to do it tho
[22:08] <grumbly> GeekSquid: what is PHPform?
[22:08] <gartral> my apt stalled.. what do i do?
[22:08] <bastid_raZor> osmosis: reboot and hold shift .. then select the virtual kernel
[22:09] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: dpkg -l samba samba-common samba-bin gadmin-samba
[22:09] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, any idea as to why vnc all of a sudden requires sticky keys to be on so that I can use things like the shift key alt key etc...
[22:09] <RadSurfer2> -bin and -gadmin are missing!
[22:09] <madjoe> can someone help me to enable my desktop again? when I right-click on it, nothing happens...
[22:09] <xloosescrewx> ok i still cant get the pannel menu bar to return after following the instructions given the terminal says comand not found
[22:09] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: the 'gadmin-samba' isn't needed. i think the -bin is though
[22:09] <ruthgard> !grub | osmosis
[22:10] <ruthgard> !grub2 | osmosis
[22:10] <RadSurfer2> samba-bin <-- no such package
[22:10] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: however, you'd probably like the gadmin-samba if you're going to be using samba
[22:10] <bastid_raZor> xloosescrewx: pastebin the output of the command and the error message
[22:10] <ruthgard> osmosis, :) sorry my first time doing that
[22:10] <gartral> my apt stalled while installing plasma-widget-kimpanel.. what do i do? i've never seen apt just.. stop
[22:10] <grumbly> GeekSquid: phpform.org???
[22:10] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: unlike ssh or vnc, teamviewer just turn on Scroll Lock to enable those keys on the remote computer, ctrl-alt-delete is run from a menu inside teamviewer
[22:10] <nyu> lucid doesnt mount my drives correctly when booting, it worked fine before on karmic
[22:10] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: sudo aptitude install samba-bin
[22:10] <nyu> any idea what's causing this?
[22:10] <Nilos> Trying to install a usb wireless network adapter
[22:10] <GeekSquid> grumbly, hold on a sec
[22:11] <xloosescrewx> ok
[22:11] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, teamveiwer is a lot like logmein.com :)
[22:11] <xloosescrewx> error message: command not found
[22:11] <Nilos> Trying to install a usb wireless network adapter, but I keep getting an error during the install.Can someone help me with this?
[22:11] <roby> ciao a tutti!
[22:11] <GeekSquid> grumbly: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpform/
[22:11] <onetinsoldier> i think i've found my forte... anyone need an x-cursor-theme installed from a .tar.gz file? :-)
[22:12] <GeekSquid> Crash1hd: yes, but it is free for non-commercial use, and works both ways win/ubu ubu/win and apple
[22:12] <samba_> hi, need help with my wireless card
[22:12] <jrib> onetinsoldier: find the right place on the wiki for it
[22:12] <jrib> !wifi > samba_
[22:12] <Crash1hd> GeekSquid, ahh cool :)
[22:12] <onetinsoldier> jrib: for installing x-cursor-themes?
[22:12] <gartral> my apt stalled while installing plasma-widget-kimpanel.. what do i do? i've never seen apt just.. stop
[22:12] <jrib> onetinsoldier: yes
[22:12] <samba_> I have a acer tracelmate 2420 and cannot see my device : http://paste.ubuntu.com/435756/
[22:12] <samba_> what can I do ?
[22:12] <xloosescrewx> need help please
[22:13] <jrib> onetinsoldier: help.ubuntu.com/community
[22:13] <onetinsoldier> jrib: roger. i'm offering to help install them if anyone wants
[22:13] <Ddorda> is it possible to sync empathy with ubuntu one
[22:13] <Nilos> samba do you have WINE on your machine
[22:13] <Ddorda> ?
[22:13] <samba_> no, WINE but I can install it
[22:13] <jrib> onetinsoldier: I understand, but that's a bit counter-productive
[22:13] <Nilos> WINE might help
[22:13] <onetinsoldier> jrib: ok, roger
[22:13] <compaq> when i wake from suspend, i get a blank screen
[22:13] <xloosescrewx> ineed to restore the pannel menu
[22:13] <samba_> Nilos, why WINE can help ?
[22:13] <jrib> onetinsoldier: once you have it up on the wiki, you can create a factoid in ubottu too if you want
[22:14] <Nilos> its for reading exe format files
[22:14] <samba_> and how can I see my wifi card ?
[22:14] <RadSurfer2> onetinsoldier:  Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "samba-bin"  <-- is all keep getting
[22:14] <compaq> iwconfig
[22:14] <samba_> Nilos, but you suggest to use ndiswrapper ?
[22:14] <RadSurfer2> Anyone know how I ENABLE File/Folder Sharing please?
[22:14] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: roger... one second
[22:14] <bastid_raZor> xloosescrewx: take a screenshot of gnome-terminal and post it on http://tinyurl.com/imagebin
[22:15] <jrib> RadSurfer2: right click -> properties -> sharing tab.  This should work in a default ubuntu install
[22:15] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: ok, sorry.. i had the name of the package wrong
[22:15] <samba_> why ?? lspci no wireless found : http://paste.ubuntu.com/435756/
[22:15] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: sudo aptitude install samba-common-bin
[22:15] <compaq> RadSurfer, FTP server
[22:15] <paolo> ciao
[22:15] <RadSurfer2> right-click WHERE?
[22:15] <osmosis> I have   linux-virtual install, but update-grub doesnt see it.
[22:15] <jrib> RadSurfer2: on a folder in nautilus (the default browser)
[22:15] <jrib> RadSurfer2: on a folder in nautilus (the default file browser)
[22:16] <grumbly> GeekSquid: thanks!
[22:16] <BlAck6j73> samba    I cant see your card listed in pastebin
[22:16] <onetinsoldier> jrib: ok. i 'might' do that. however, getting an x-cursor-theme installed from a .targ.z from www.gnome-look.org is... pretty complex
[22:16] <onetinsoldier> .tar.gx*
[22:16] <onetinsoldier> .tar.gz*
[22:16] <jrib> onetinsoldier: the factoid would just link to the wiki page
[22:16] <nyu> no one wants to help me? :?
[22:16] <Sonsee> hi all. I have kde4 on ubuntu 9.10. I love it, but I have one little problem with konqueror. When I`m watching video on youtube I cannot push the buttom "right-down" to resize the video(make it bigger).
[22:16] <onetinsoldier> jrib: roger
[22:17] <RadSurfer2> Well, evidently that did something:  a  Hand appears under that folders Icon now
[22:17] <Sonsee> In all other browsers no problems
[22:17] <samba_> BlAck6j73, yes there isn't my card in lspci
[22:17] <Sonsee> can someone help?
[22:17] <onetinsoldier> jrib: i mean.. even making a tutorial on the wiki.. it would be a lot of steps
[22:17] <samba_> how can I find my card ?
[22:17] <BlAck6j73> is it a usb card?
[22:17] <spartano> xplosionirc.net
[22:17] <samba_> no
[22:17] <grumbly> GeekSquid: I dont understand how to use it...
[22:17] <samba_> is an intel centrino
[22:17] <ToothPick> Hi, I have downloaded a torrent client but im not familiar with how to install programs that are not from the Add\Remove menu, can anyone help me?
[22:17] <RadSurfer2> WHY IS "personal file sharing" under Preferences STILL all greyed out?
[22:18] <BlAck6j73> samba  when did it last work?
[22:18] <jrib> RadSurfer2: what ubuntu version is this?
[22:18] <tado> every time i download torrents from home (and only with my laptop), my wireless disconnects after a few minutes. any help please???
[22:18] <MACscr_lappy> ToothPick: why not stick with a client in the software manager?
[22:18] <RadSurfer2> 10.4 Desktop, just today installed :)
[22:18] <MACscr_lappy> all the good ones are there
[22:18] <ToothPick> because the site i use only allows this particular torrent client
[22:18] <onetinsoldier> jrib: i might do it. but i would worry a little that if someone weren't walking them through it, they'd have trouble and frustration.
[22:18] <jrib> RadSurfer2: what directory are you trying to share?
[22:19] <ToothPick> i have some .sh files and makefiles
[22:19] <RadSurfer2> one I created in my home directory
[22:19] <MACscr_lappy> ToothPick: what client?
[22:19] <ToothPick> rTorrent
[22:19] <RadSurfer2> It has the Hand underneath it!
[22:19] <poseidon> I'm looking for the grub menu file so that I can add a rootdelay flag to the kernel boot up.  However, I don't see a menu.lst in /boot/grub/
[22:19] <xloosescrewx> ok I made a screenshot from imagebin, who/ how do i get it here?
[22:19] <jrib> RadSurfer2: apt-cache policy nautilus-share
[22:19] <RadSurfer2> problem is: Preferences/ File Sharing / is all GREYED OUT still
[22:19] <poseidon> Where should I be looking
[22:19] <jrib> xloosescrewx: tell us the url
[22:19] <grumbly> poseidon: Are you using Grub or grub2?
[22:19] <xloosescrewx> ok
[22:19] <powertool08> ToothPick: I'm pretty sure rtorrent is in the repos.
[22:19] <nyu> lucid doesnt mount my drives correctly when booting, it worked fine before on karmic. any help?
[22:19] <samba_> BlAck6j73, no last work this is a new nb for me..
[22:19] <ToothPick> lets see
[22:20] <RadSurfer2> appears that item is installed
[22:20] <grumbly> poseidon: If it
[22:20] <RadSurfer2> policy-share thingy
[22:20] <ToothPick> repos = add\remove programs?
[22:20] <powertool08> ToothPick: Yes.
[22:20] <xloosescrewx> http://imagebin.org/97389
[22:20] <grumbly> poseidon: If its grub2, there is no menu.1st
[22:20] <BlAck6j73> samba  what model of nb?
[22:20] <jrib> !who | RadSurfer2
[22:20] <samba_> acer travelmate 2420
[22:20] <samba_> an old nb..
[22:20] <powertool08> ToothPick: I installed with apt-get on debian, usually ubuntu and debian have the same packages.
[22:20] <jrib> nyu: provide more details.  "correctly" is vague
[22:20] <onetinsoldier> jrib: i think perhaps what i should do, if anything further, is learn how to package them, like the 'crystalcursors' package ;-)
[22:20] <Nilos> Trying to install a usb wireless network adapter, but I keep getting an error during the install.Can someone help me with this?
[22:20] <RadSurfer2> jrib: what next to check please?
[22:21]  * RadSurfer2 simply wants to get Folder / File Sharing to work.
[22:21] <bastid_raZor> xloosescrewx: you're missing the gnome-terminal.. i didn't want your desktop. i wanted to see what command you typed and the error
[22:21] <jrib> RadSurfer2: nautilus-share was installed?
[22:21] <GeekSquid> RadSurfer: look way up on the page, I told you how to do it
[22:21] <RadSurfer2> a sec...
[22:22] <BlAck6j73> samba  did you have windows working on it?
[22:22] <RadSurfer2> "nautilus-share is already the newest version."
[22:22] <iguest> Sorry - someone looking to edit grub?
[22:22] <benomatic> is there a place to snag a tarball of a karmic (or any other release) that can be used as a chroot under an identical host os?
[22:22] <xloosescrewx> oh i thought you wanted my desktop, anyway I need the menu bar at the top restored, I will get you it just a moment please
[22:22] <iguest> /etc/default - edit 'grub'
[22:22] <RadSurfer2> I'll try something else...
[22:22] <nyu> jrib: it tries mounting them on the wrong mount points
[22:23] <jrib> onetinsoldier: in the past, if the cursor theme was packaged correctly, I thought you could just drag the theme into the Appearance -> Icons window.  Is that no longer the case?
[22:23] <jrib> nyu: they are in your /etc/fstab?
[22:23] <vlt> benomatic: have a look at debootstrap
[22:23] <augustl> I added a daemon to be started on boot, but it doesn't daemonize so nothing happens after it runs, since it runs in the foreground. Halp :)
[22:24] <samba_> no BlAck6j73 no windows
[22:24] <augustl> I guess the only way out is to mount the partition from somewhere else and remove it again?
[22:24] <nyu> jrib: its all screwed up in there
[22:24] <jrib> augustl: sure
[22:24] <augustl> or is there a way to recover? This is ubuntu server btw.
[22:24] <onetinsoldier> jrib: correct.. that no longer seems to work. at least not for 2 different x-cursor themes downloaded as a .tar.gz that i helped people get installed... Obsidian, and aero-drop
[22:24] <jrib> nyu: didn't we talk about being "vague"? :P
[22:24] <xloosescrewx> http://imagebin.org/97390
[22:25] <nyu> jrib: the mount points are wrong
[22:25] <BlAck6j73> samba  if it dosent show up in   lspci    then theres not much one can do to help
[22:25] <jrib> nyu: pastebin your /etc/fstab
[22:25] <bastid_raZor> xloosescrewx: don't include the two arrows
[22:25] <samba_> oh, damn
[22:25]  * LjL randomly hugs jrib
[22:25] <samba_> look , this is my nb spec: http://tinyurl.com/3xga65x
[22:26] <nyu> jrib: then rebooting will fix it?
[22:26] <xloosescrewx> ok sorry about that
[22:26] <jrib> LjL: thanks, I actually needed that
[22:26] <RadSurfer2> smb4k keeps giving me "Operation NOT PERMITTED"
[22:26] <jrib> nyu: pastebinning will just let me see what your fstab looks like
[22:26] <augustl> so there's no recovery mode thing for ubuntu server?
[22:26] <jrib> augustl: there is...
[22:26] <augustl> how can I boot into it?
[22:27] <samba_> so I cannot use wireless with ubuntu ?
[22:27] <jrib> augustl: choose it at the grub prompt
[22:27] <samba_> please somone try to help me
[22:27] <benomatic> vlt: danke
[22:27] <samba_> :(
[22:27] <jrib> !helpme | samba_
[22:27] <bastid_raZor> xloosescrewx: did that fix your panel?
[22:27] <augustl> jrib: there is no grub prompt
[22:27] <augustl> it just boots straight into the os
[22:27] <jrib> augustl: hold shift
[22:27] <augustl> via grub I guess, but it's still no prompt
[22:27] <augustl> ah
[22:27] <samba_> jrib, I know but wtf can I do , i'm here to ask ..
[22:28] <GeekSquid> augustl: hold SHIFT at POST screen ... you'll get it
[22:28] <BlAck6j73> samba   can you pastebin   your dmesg
[22:28] <RadSurfer2> How is CIFS tied into this mess?
[22:28] <samba_> yes
[22:28] <jrib> samba_: just ask the actual question instead of saying "help me"
[22:29] <osmosis> im not able to switch over to linux-virtual.  see  http://dpaste.com/196281/
[22:29] <jrib> nyu: do you understand?
[22:29] <samba_> jrib, if u read all I've ask so many times
[22:29] <augustl> yay, tnx :)
[22:29] <samba_> BlAck6j73, http://paste.ubuntu.com/435763/ here is it
[22:29] <jrib> samba_: yes, I was aware of that.
[22:29] <RadSurfer2> jrib: is a 'cifs'  package missing ?
[22:29] <poseidon> grumbly: yea, sorry.  It's grub2.  How should I go about adding rootdelay to the kernel flag.  (my friends computer is having a problem where it says took to long to find root devices)
[22:30] <jrib> RadSurfer2: as I said, you should be able to share the directory by default.  afaict nautilus-share depends on everything you need
[22:30] <jrib> RadSurfer2: where exactly are you looking?
[22:30] <RadSurfer2> I can not get access to my OUTSIDE shares!
[22:30] <samba_> I hate when a device is not recognised in ubuntu ...
[22:30] <RadSurfer2> It sees the domain fine... but won't allow mounting.
[22:30] <jrib> RadSurfer2: I thought you wanted to share a folder, not see a share?
[22:30] <xloosescrewx> thank you for the help, as you probably have noticed I am new to UBUNTU. Good day.
[22:31] <RadSurfer2> I have a folder shared. NOW the issue is mounting outside shares.
[22:31] <jrib> RadSurfer2: can you view it in nautilus?
[22:31] <RadSurfer2> sec...
[22:31] <rocket16> Friends, I once asked a question here, about setting up Adium themes in Pidgin. I did not get the answer, but now I have found it out. It is at: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/05/script-to-set-up-everything-for-using.html Thought it might help someone in future, if you're interested, :)
[22:31] <augustl> can anyone see an obvious reason for why this doesn't daemonize but starts in the foreground? http://pastie.org/966492.txt
[22:31] <warriorforgod> samba_: what kind of wireless card do you have?
[22:32] <onetinsoldier> it used to be so much easier to help people with grub1... don't like the new config setup for grub2
[22:32] <iguest> rootdelay - edit the file /etc/default/grub then run update-grub (Using Lucid grub2)
[22:32] <samba_> from : (http://tinyurl.com/3xga65x): Acer Invilink 802.11b/g Wi-Fi
[22:33] <BrendenB> Any ideas why this isn't working? http://pastebin.com/ctW0zjL7
[22:33] <tripps> great now it seems my laptop wants to resume from a disk image on startup though it wasn't suspended. how to fix?
[22:33] <RadSurfer2> I seemed to have forgotten how to get the "input field" in nautilis, I got used to kde before
[22:33] <scottj> Is there an easy way to increase the resolution in console mode?
[22:33] <Hajex> the color of all things in screen is inversed how can I get them back ?
[22:33] <madjoe> rocket16: be careful with that.. I'm just using the same thing on Karmic... if you click at the link within your Adium theme, it tries to open it within the Pidgin itself... and fails to do that.. which is annoying
[22:33] <jrib> Hajex: try #compiz
[22:33] <trism> RadSurfer2: ctrl+L
[22:34] <rocket16> madjoe: Thanks, but in Lucid, it works perfect. Atleast in my case, :)
[22:34] <jrib> RadSurfer2: you can just click on "network" in nautilus too
[22:34] <BlAck6j73> samba   again its not listed!
[22:34] <RadSurfer2> so far its just sitting there...
[22:34] <samba_> BlAck6j73, I know..
[22:34] <madjoe> rocket16: and also, when you have a caht with your friends and would like to see some custom icons, most of those icons will fail in Adium and you won't be able to see them
[22:34] <RadSurfer2> OK!
[22:35] <Hajex> jrib: great !! thanks
[22:35] <RadSurfer2> Nautilis allowed me access.... finally :)
[22:35] <samba_> seems there isn't
[22:35] <madjoe> rocket16: really? I'll have to try that...
[22:35] <jrib> scottj: 2 releases ago, I would have told you uvesafb was the best way.  Now, I'm not sure what the best way is.  Maybe see ubottu:
[22:35] <bastid_raZor> samba_: type lspci  in a terminal. is your card seen there?
[22:35] <RadSurfer2> I was trying to use smb4k, it has a configuration problem yet.
[22:35] <jrib> !tty | scottj
[22:35] <samba_> bastid_raZor, no, cant see there
[22:35] <onetinsoldier> scottj: you can do it. don't know that i'd call it easy though
[22:35] <samba_> look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/435756/
[22:36] <danpandrea> hello! i have some "global menu applet" issues: how can i make the "File", "Edit" etc. appear on the top pannel?
[22:36] <madjoe> rocket16: it openes links within your default browser? :)
[22:37] <poseidon> So my friends computer doesn't boot up properly, it says that it is taking to long to find root devices.  I googled and it said to add rootdelay=90 as a flag to the kernel in menu.lst, however, he has grub2.  How would I do this in grub.cfg?
[22:37] <samba_> other idea ?
[22:37] <rocket16> madjoe: Yeah sure, I use Chrome, and it works perfectly, :D
[22:37] <madjoe> wow
[22:37] <RadSurfer2> Thanks jrib: apparently its working now. :-)
[22:37] <Nilos> Trying to install a usb wireless network adapter, but I keep getting an error during the install.PM for details.
[22:37] <warriorforgod> I have my monitors set up in portrait mode at 1050x1680.  Does anybody know how to put the tty's into this mode?
[22:37] <samba_> just an input ... ?!?
[22:37] <jrib> RadSurfer2: cool
[22:37] <madjoe> I've got to migrate to Lucid sooner than I thought... lol
[22:37] <iguest> Yoou dont edit the grub config..
[22:38] <exalt> why dont i have inet connection http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/435766/
[22:38] <rocket16> madjoe: Might be, because Lucid is LTS, and faster than Karmic. Anyway, goodluck, :)
[22:38] <zstars> How do you update the packages in the ubuntu software center?
[22:38] <iguest> Poseidon - did you take a look in /etc/default/grub?
[22:38] <BlAck6j73> samba   ist not switched off in the bios  perhaps?
[22:38] <rocket16> zstars: Use "sudo apt-get update", and for upgrading the System, use Software Center
[22:39] <rocket16> zstars: Oops, sorry it is Udate Manager, not Software Center
[22:39] <samba_> I've checked the bios , but acer bios are so minimal
[22:39] <rocket16> * Update
[22:39] <JonnJonzz> i have 2 harddrives in my computer, but ubuntu isn't detecting one, what do?
[22:39] <RadSurfer2> does ubuntu use something called "samba-services" and/or "samba-config" /
[22:39] <samba_> there's no wifi option
[22:39] <poseidon> iguest: I see it, but I'm not sure what to do still
[22:40] <zstars> rocket16: Not sure what kind of updates it expects :(
[22:40] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: have you tried gadmin-samba?
[22:40] <BlAck6j73> samba    you could try booting from a livecd to see if it picks it up
[22:40] <zstars> rocket16: When trying to install Sun's Java using the Software Center, it says that it cannot show information about the Java 6.0 Sun Plugin
[22:40] <RadSurfer2> not yet.
[22:40] <iguest> OK - look at the line that starts with: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
[22:40] <zstars> rocket16: Because the software catalog needs updating
[22:40] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: told you earlier, if you were going to use samab, you'd probably like that pp
[22:40] <onetinsoldier> app*
[22:41] <rocket16> zstars: Did you try "sudo apt-get update" in Terminal?
[22:41] <zstars> rocket16: Ya :(
[22:41] <samba_> BlAck6j73, my ubuntu is very fresh I've install it yesterday night
[22:41] <samba_> Also from live, no wireless card
[22:41] <drjnet> howdy folks
[22:42] <samba_> and from 9.10 too
[22:42] <guilboc> bonjour
[22:42] <zongo_> Hi, Don't know if I am at the right place to ask questions about lftp ?? I am using ubuntu 10..0.4
[22:42] <niko> !fr | guilboc
[22:42] <BlAck6j73> samba   well then maybe its dead
[22:42] <rocket16> zstars: I think, there is a problem related to Software Sources. Go to System->Administration->Software Sources and in that, check all options above the Source Code option. And then, close it, and update.
[22:42] <drjnet> anyone managed to successfully run a custom script from a keyboard shortcut in lucid?
[22:42] <crazy7> my system won't boot; the last thing that's shown is "/dev/sda3: clean, etc etc" , and it just sits there. What's going on? is there a hidden fsck going on in the background? is something broken?
[22:42] <samba_> BlAck6j73, :( no please no...
[22:42] <zongo_> was wondering if there was any ways to store a password using lftp ?
[22:43] <kindofabuzz> How do I edit the right click "Move To" option?
[22:43] <barbarella> niko:i think he made a joke on howdy folks, can be wrong
[22:43] <zongo_> I have used bookmark already to store the site
[22:43] <iguest> Poseidon: Something like GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash bootdelay=90"
[22:43] <RadSurfer2> Looks interesting. Something new to learn. Haven't used that before.
[22:43] <samba_> ok, ubntu cannot find my wifi card
[22:43] <pdtpatri1k> Hi Does anyone know where i can get instructions on how to setup compiz/beryl to actually get 3D working in 10.4
[22:44] <rocket16> samba_: Do you have drives needed for that?
[22:44] <samba_> tnx for all BlAck6j73 ...
[22:44] <samba_> bye
[22:44] <samba_> rocket16, which driver ?
[22:44] <rocket16> samba_: The propietery driver, if any
[22:44] <samba_> yes, downloaded from acer support
[22:44] <drjnet> to busy, outta here..
[22:44] <pdtpatri1k> Hi Does anyone know where i can get instructions on how to setup compiz/beryl to actually get 3D working in 10.4
[22:44] <BlAck6j73> samba   this might help     http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=392666
[22:44] <zstars> rocket16: No luck :(
[22:44] <iguest> The wife's calling for dinner - I'm gone!
[22:44] <zstars> rocket16: They were all kinda checked out already except the source one tho
[22:45] <Bizon> hi, question: why the hell is not PulseAudio in Kubuntu 10.04?
[22:45] <rocket16> zstars: Hmm, really a problem, :(
[22:45] <bastid_raZor> !compiz | pdtpatri1k
[22:45] <Bizon> and the problem - i can't get sound from anything but amarok and dragon
[22:46] <blendmaster1024> !language > Bizon
[22:46] <etale> hey all -- I'm trying to install 10.4 but the install keeps hanging at copying files
[22:46] <Rocafort8> Hi
[22:47] <rocket16> etale: May be the CD is damaged.
[22:47] <samba_> BlAck6j73, this thread is about graphical tools , no lspci problems..
[22:47] <rocket16> etala: Are you making a Clean install from CD? And is your CD Drive Ok?
[22:47] <Loshki> There's no pulsaudio in Kubuntu? Those guys are smarter than I thought...
[22:47] <rocket16> !hi > Rocafort8
[22:48] <kindofabuzz> How do I edit the right click option "Move To" in Gnome?
[22:48] <crazy7> well, I hear my hard drive occasionally churning, so I assume there must be something going on... I guess I'll just have to leave it overnight and see if anything finishes or happens
[22:48] <rocket16> Any Geany User here
[22:48] <Samual> Hey I have a keyboard linked up to line in on my computer, and on Ubuntu 10.04 I can no longer listen to that audio through output
[22:48] <Samual> Anyone know how to fix this?
[22:48] <Bizon> Loshki: Yes, it seems so... It would be better to use the same server in every fork not to get angry people like me, who hate using dumb apps like dragon, which can do nothing
[22:49] <rocket16> Can the language highlighting and compilation for Geany be extended?
[22:49] <Loshki> Bizon: I guess. But pulseaudio is a nightmare and you're better off without it...
[22:49] <samba_> no other way, no lspci for my wireless card
[22:49] <BlAck6j73> samba   very first paragraph   just after /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
[22:50] <Bizon> Loshki: Maybe, but I can't play any sound in my VLC, even if switching sound server from one to another...
[22:50] <samba_> BlAck6j73, but why configure wpa if I don't have wireless interface ?
[22:50] <RadSurfer2> oh boy, here we go....
[22:50] <barbarella> samba_:maybe lsusb, if it is an usb device
[22:50] <RadSurfer2> I require gcc compile and automated tools to be installed, BEST way to do that please?
[22:50] <Rocafort8> When I try to boot the Ubuntu 9.10 to install it, the screen says "out of range". I tryed on 4 different screens with the same result,could be something related with my graphics card ? (using Geforce 7600GS)
[22:50] <samba_> barbarella, is not an usb device is an intel into my nb
[22:51] <etale> installing ubuntu i get an error : "the following file did not match its source copy"...
[22:51] <RadSurfer2> gcc build tools, or whatever its called... fullest possible package
[22:51] <kindofabuzz> How do I edit the right click option "Move To" in Gnome?
[22:52] <samba_> BlAck6j73, I see the config file but this is ok if you have the wireless interface
[22:52] <samba_> I havent
[22:52] <barbarella> samba_:and the motherboard manufacture is??
[22:52] <samba_> barbarella, here is my nb spec: http://tinyurl.com/3xga65x
[22:53] <flavio_> #ceibaljam
[22:53] <samba_> my netcard is:  Acer Invilink 802.11b/g Wi-Fi
[22:53] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: sudo aptitude install build-essentials
[22:53] <rocket16> Marvellous! My quest for Empathy-like theme for Pidgin is complete!
[22:53] <BlAck6j73> samba      heres whats listed on the link I gave you    Acer InviLink 802.11b/g Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Wireless Network
[22:53] <RadSurfer2> yes, thats it
[22:53] <crazy7> hrm maybe smashing this computer with a hammer will fix the problem
[22:54] <Jordan_U> poseidon: rootwait is probably a better option than rootdelay=
[22:54] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: that, might not install 'everything' you want/need, but it will get most of it
[22:54] <samba_> yes BlAck6j73 , is my card and appears ok in that nb, but not in mine...
[22:55] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: were you finally able to enaboe file sharing? if so, what was the problem? just curious
[22:55] <Rocafort8> When I try to boot Ubuntu 9.10 cd to install it, the screen says "out of range"
[22:55] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: enable*
[22:55] <poseidon> Jordan_U: thanks.  However, when I put it in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT it didn't show up when I did cat /proc/cmdline
[22:55] <jordy240> hi i need to speak to mark shuttleworth
[22:55] <Jordan_U> poseidon: Did you run update-grub?
[22:56] <Reign25> Jordan_U: Hey man.  The only things I have done are 1. Changed appearances to another standard theme and 2. edited the gconf-editor metacity to put my close/maximize/minimize buttons back on the right side using the command :minimize,maximize,close. Changing either of these back does not seem to have an effect.
[22:58] <Crash1hd> Anyone here know about x11vnc ncache? the default says ncache 10 is the 10 a size? or amount and would it be better to do ncache 1 or ncache 100 ?
[22:58] <Rocafort8> When I try to boot Ubuntu 9.10 cd to install it, the screen says "out of range"
[22:58] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer: were you finally able to enable file sharing? if so, what was the problem? just curious
[22:59] <samba_> how can I check if the button for wifi is in mode "on" or in mode "off" from ubuntu ?
[22:59] <Reign25> Rocafort8: It's booting up at the wrong resolution. Haveyou tried booting up in Recovery or Safe Mode?
[22:59] <bodom> Hi. Anybody knows when django 1.2 will available in lucid?
[23:00] <poseidon> Jordan_U: am I supposed to just do rootwait, or rootwait=#?
[23:00] <samba_> ?
[23:00] <sebacure> whats kills program ubuntu ?
[23:00] <miazgator> wat?
[23:00] <barbarella> samba_:and nothing with sudo lcpci
[23:00] <poseidon> sebacure: pkill or the system manager
[23:00] <Rocafort8> I tried in 4 different screens all of them in "normal mode" and "save graphics mode"
[23:01] <SwedeMike> bodom: generally new versions don't get introduced into an existing release.
[23:01] <miazgator> I've got a problem with Konqueror: http://img22.imageshack.us/i/48864546.png/ Can't enter facebook lol
[23:01] <onetinsoldier> bodom: you can look here if you want to.. https://launchpad.net/~jenkner/+archive/django
[23:01] <Jordan_U> poseidon: Just rootwait
[23:01] <Rocafort8> May be something related with the graphics card ? (Geforce 7600GS)
[23:01] <onetinsoldier> bodom: lloks like i see a 1.2 version on there
[23:01] <BlAck6j73> samba   even if wifi mode was off     lspci would still how the card
[23:01] <samba_> no , it's the same , look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/435777/
[23:02] <bodom> onetinsoldier, SwedeMike: ty
[23:02] <barbarella> BlAck6j73:my acer doesn't
[23:02] <onetinsoldier> bodom: you're welcome
[23:02] <samba_> ideas?
[23:03] <samba_> BlAck6j73, seems strange, in lspci you list all the pci even if turned on or off..
[23:03] <tripps> crap after all that trouble now I'm back to x freezing again. did dpkg-reconfigure and restored KMS settings as before to no avail. No getting /dev/fb0 no such file, failed to open drm device, etc. This is ridiculous for off the shelf, pervasive Intel hardware.
[23:03] <Rocafort8> Any idea ?
[23:03] <BlAck6j73> samba  my point was  maybe its a hardware problem        you could try windoz to make sure its working
[23:04] <exalt> how to remove all kde related programs from your computer? apt-get remove --purge kdelibs5 ??
[23:04] <samba_> yes, maybe I can try this
[23:04] <onetinsoldier> RadSurfer2: hello... you here?
[23:04] <rocket16> Can one really talk to Mr. Shuttleworth here? I don't believe, but if I would ever get a chance, that would have been a great day, for Mr. Shuttleworth is great, who gifted us Ubuntu. We can never pay his debt. :) (Sorry for being offtopic).
[23:05] <samba_> but my old customer says that's wonderful wifi with windows
[23:05] <bastid_raZor> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome exalt .. follow the command to remove.. you don't have to do the ubuntu-desktop install command unless you want
[23:05] <samba_> and this is a bad day for me if I cannot resolve this wifi problem...
[23:05] <onetinsoldier> exalt: you know how to use pastebin?
[23:05] <exalt> onetinsoldier: sure i do
[23:05] <onetinsoldier> exalt: ok, i can try to help you
[23:06] <onetinsoldier> exalt: could you post the results of --> dpkg -l '*kde*' | grep ^ii
[23:06] <BlAck6j73> samba  what?
[23:07] <progesterone> Question: how can I save a file with different file type in gedit editor (e.g. myFile.txt to myFile.html)?
[23:07] <samba_> BlAck6j73, in windows wifi works ..
[23:07] <barbarella> samba_:what does iwlist wlan0 scan say
[23:07] <_blackwater_> samba_ I don't see a wlan controller in lspci
[23:07] <samba_> because wlan0 dont exist
[23:08] <samba_> wlan0     No such device
[23:08] <chain__> hello
[23:08] <_blackwater_> samba_ you don't say, of course it won't show up.
[23:08] <Robert_Zenz> Does someone know how I can invert the input of f.e. a mouse on thy fly?
[23:08] <chain__> does anyone know how to fix the problem with muted volume in ubuntu 9.10 ?
[23:08] <chain__> I mean it's muted at startup
[23:09] <samba_> _blackwater_, look: http://paste.ubuntu.com/435779/
[23:09] <barbarella> samba_:maybe ndiswrapper
[23:09] <JuJuBee__> How can I start an app on a remote computer for someone via ssh?
[23:09] <samba_> it's my last chance
[23:09] <ToothPick> is there such a thing as virus in linux?
[23:09] <crdlb> progesterone: what is happening when you try?
[23:10] <Jordan_U> !virus | ToothPick
[23:10] <_blackwater_> samba_ if there's no adapter in lspci then the block device won't exist at all.  is the wireless device enabled in bios.
[23:10] <kindofabuzz> How do I edit the right click option "Move To" in Gnome?
[23:10] <RadSurfer2> here's a dangerous question  ;-)
[23:10] <samba_> in bios there is a minimal interface
[23:10] <JuJuBee__> I want to start kate with a specific file on my computer at home from work.
[23:10] <JodaZ> how do i stop ubuntu from automounting stuff just because it had it mounted sometime before ?
[23:10] <RadSurfer2> What does it take to switch over to KDE ?
[23:10] <samba_> is the default interface for all acer nb
[23:10] <poseidon> I have a computer which isn't booting up.  It says "Gave up waiting on root device"  and "Alert! /dev/disk/by-uuid/somlonghex does not exist, dropping to shell"
[23:11] <poseidon> I tried adding rootwait to the kernel flags, but that didn't work
[23:11] <JuJuBee__> RadSurfer2: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[23:11] <barbarella> JuJuBee__:as i know you you can't
[23:11] <rewati> kjfs
[23:11] <_blackwater_> is there even a wireless adapter installed in the laptop?
[23:11] <RadSurfer2> Ok.
[23:11] <Jordan_U> poseidon: What happened with rootwait, did it just hang without ever giving up?
[23:11] <_blackwater_> samba_ or has it worked in a windoze os?
[23:11] <JuJuBee__> barbarella: not true, I did it a long time ago... Something involving :0 (the default tty session)
[23:11] <samba_> _blackwater_, by specification yes wireless card exist
[23:11] <bastid_raZor> !purekde | RadSurfer2
[23:11] <Reign25> Jordan_U: what should I do next?
[23:12] <RadSurfer2> I prefer to have both; but may desire to use KDE by default.
[23:12] <samba_> _blackwater_, somebody say to me that wifi in windows works
[23:12] <RadSurfer2> Gnome is icky. LOL
[23:12] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[23:12] <onetinsoldier> exalt: hello.. still here?
[23:12] <barbarella> JuJuBee__:and with nohup i think
[23:12] <onetinsoldier> ActionParsnip: hello there
[23:12] <_blackwater_> samba_ they did eh, verify that yourself?
[23:12] <RadSurfer2> When I close Nautilus, how can I be certain   File Sharing Connections have been closed/terminated?
[23:12] <Rocafort8> Some wireless cards in some laptops only can be turned on or off when running windows( there's no physical button)
[23:12] <chain__> people, please! maybe someone does know the solution to this problem
[23:12] <poseidon> Jordan_U: no.  It just took a while before it dropped into a shell
[23:12] <samba_> _blackwater_, how ?
[23:13] <samba_> _blackwater_, now I have only ubuntu ...
[23:13] <ActionParsnip> RadSurfer2: if you are connecting to samba shares via nautilus and closing nautilus then they are severed
[23:13] <exalt> onetinsoldier: i already am removing it :)
[23:13] <_blackwater_> samba_ that it works in windoze.
[23:13] <Jordan_U> Reign25: Wirless should be working now when you boot from thehard drive.
[23:13] <onetinsoldier> exalt: ok, roger... good deal :-)
[23:13] <samba_> _blackwater_, I have to install windows to try it
[23:13] <ActionParsnip> _blackwater_: it's spelled "windows"
[23:13] <Reign25> Jordan_U: k. let me try to reboot then. thanks
[23:14] <Jordan_U> Reign25: You're welcome.
[23:14] <_blackwater_> ActionParsnip and I spell it, windoze.
[23:14] <samba_> winsucks
[23:14] <ActionParsnip> _blackwater_: its incorrect
[23:14] <barbarella> ActionParsnip:and i windox
[23:14] <_blackwater_> samba_ i don't believe the adapter is installed in your laptop.  It should lspci regardless if it's enabled.
[23:14] <samba_> so the solution is : install windows ?
[23:14] <crazy7> sigh, time to do my weekly backup and reinstall
[23:15] <harjot> how do i make a bootable usb sitkc?
[23:15] <harjot> If i use unetbootin
[23:15] <onetinsoldier> crazy7: why would you be needing to reinstall every week?
[23:15] <harjot> Then it wants gparted
[23:15] <barbarella> samba_:have  you called acer, maybe they have a solution
[23:15] <crazy7> onetinsoldier: every update annihilates my system
[23:15] <_blackwater_> samba_ if your lspci is complete then your laptop is missing the wireless controller.
[23:15] <samba_> if is not installed so why specify it from the acer official site : http://tinyurl.com/3xga65x ?
[23:16] <onetinsoldier> crazy7: really? strange
[23:16] <_blackwater_> samba_ they are not difficult to remove.
[23:16] <jd_> hi
[23:16] <onetinsoldier> !hi | jd
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> harjot: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/create-a-ubuntu-9-10-live-usb-in-windows/
[23:16] <rocket16> !hi | jd_
[23:16] <harjot> does this work for isos too?
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> harjot: works with 10.04 too
[23:16] <crazy7> onetinsoldier: yeah, and usually in novel ways. right now, it seems to get stuck in init somewhere ... fsck reports on my root filesystem... then it just sits there.
[23:16] <jd_> could someone help me ? I want to configure the size of the font size of Qt apps
[23:16] <exalt> onetinsoldier: maybe you can help me with something:P
[23:16] <ActionParsnip> harjot: yes you need the iso
[23:17] <slow-motion> n8
[23:17] <ActionParsnip> harjot: make sure you md5 test the iso BEFORE using it
[23:17] <onetinsoldier> crazy7: roger. sounds like something isn't right with your system
[23:17] <exalt> onetinsoldier: when i removed kdm i lost my trac on the status of removing
[23:17] <exalt> any way to get it back onetinsoldier ?
[23:17] <harjot> ActionParsnip: thanks
[23:17] <samba_> ok, I will try to install windows to fix my wireless problem , than i will call acer suppiort
[23:17] <samba_> ...
[23:17] <crazy7> onetinsoldier: all I did was apt-get install fglrx ... sihg
[23:17] <onetinsoldier> exalt: not sure i know what your asking. do you have an error message you can paste in?
[23:17] <samba_> tnx to all
[23:17] <samba_> bye
[23:17] <jd_> could someone help me ? I want to configure the size of the font size of Qt apps
[23:18] <onetinsoldier> crazy7: roger. fglrx working ok here no problem
[23:18] <exalt> onetinsoldier: no i removed kdm :P so my visual
[23:18] <exalt> s lost
[23:18] <_blackwater_> * Acer support, yes sir your wirless controller is missing *
[23:18] <SamvadoR> SCUSATE I SOFTWARE AUTOINSTALLANTI DA SCARICARE PER UBUNTU SI CHIAMANO REPO?
[23:18] <barbarella> _blackwater_:samba_ just left
[23:18] <crazy7> onetinsoldier: any ideas on how to recover my system? I went in with a live CD, mounted /dev/ and /proc and root, and removed it... still doesn't work... putting "single" in grub options won't get me into single user mode ...
[23:18] <SamvadoR> aa z scusate il maiuscolo non me ne son accorto
[23:19] <miazgator> any idea why Konqueror is the only browser which doesn't lag on fullscreen controls (buttons) hovering over and clicking while watching youtube
[23:19] <_blackwater_> barbarella i'm aware of that thanks.  * my thoughts for the departed *
[23:19] <progesterone> crdlb Are you still there?
[23:19] <miazgator> the playback is good in all, but when I do anything with youtube buttons in youtube fullscreen it is choppy
[23:19] <mirra> [9.10] System crashed in the middle of installing updates. Everything is screwed up now. How can this be fixed??
[23:19] <onetinsoldier> crazy7: i doubt i can help much with that... sorry. perhaps someone else
[23:19] <JodaZ> if i insert a usb stick with multiple partitions and mount one, then pull it, and put it back in, it will try to automount all of its partitions
[23:19] <JodaZ> why the f is that ?
[23:19] <Nilos> Im looking for linux-compatible usb wireless network adapter driver
[23:20] <onetinsoldier> exalt: do you have 'gdm' installed?
[23:20] <bastid_raZor> !hardware | Nilos ... look here::
[23:20] <barbarella> _blackwater_:i always think out loud
[23:20] <crazy7> Anyone know why my system won't boot after trying to install fglrx? It just sits after reporting from fsck, although it responds to ctrl+alt+del
[23:20] <exalt> onetinsoldier: no i want to step over on CLI
[23:21] <_blackwater_> barbarella so does that -!- guy lol
[23:21] <M00Z> Hey

[23:21] <JodaZ> ActionParsnip, how to fix ?
[23:22] <jd_> help please :/ the font sizes of programs such as firefox or thunderbird are way too big
[23:22] <ActionParsnip> JodaZ: disable automount
[23:22] <gartral> wtf.. DCC a .exe to a linux support channel.. wow..
[23:22] <JodaZ> ActionParsnip, where ?
[23:22] <JodaZ> gartral, it wasn't a dcc
[23:22] <tsimpson> please ignore the trolls
[23:22] <wesguin> Nilos, did you check: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Devices/USB
[23:22] <onetinsoldier> exalt: you mean that you want to start using the command line only? i'm having trouble understanding what you're saying. i need to see 'error messages' if you're getting any
[23:23] <gartral> JodaZ: "DCC SEND "lol.exe" 0 0 0" is a DCC
[23:23] <onetinsoldier> lol
[23:23] <tsimpson> gardar: don't repeat it!!
[23:23] <JodaZ> bwahahahahaha
[23:23] <jd_> help :(
[23:23] <onetinsoldier> too funny

[23:25] <gartral> JodaZ: that's cause the channel stripped the bit...

[23:25] <ActionParsnip> mirra: boot to livecd, chroot to the installed system and run: sudo apt-get -f install
[23:25] <bastid_raZor> ActionParsnip: you're just emulating alcohol consumption
[23:25] <ActionParsnip> _blackwater_: i'm drinking from the bottle,  its easier
[23:25] <mirra> ActionParsnip, what does that do exactly?
[23:26] <barbarella> mirra:update or upgrade?
[23:26] <mirra> barbarella, update
[23:26] <southafrikanse> hi guys. I am trying to backup my windows documents using ubuntu live cd. However I am unable to access the files directly allthough I have already mounted the disk. Could it be a permissions issue?
[23:26] <mirra> barbarella, wasn't a kernal update. didn't look like anything too important either. but i'm having a lot of problems.
[23:26] <ActionParsnip> mirra: you can change the folder the system looks at for stuff using chroot, so although it doesnt boot you can use the livecd to boot then switch, -f install resumes the upgrade
[23:27] <sebsebseb> southafrikanse: Was Windows shut down properly last time?
[23:27] <barbarella> mirra:do what ActionParsnip said
[23:27] <darkkrai> I just upgraded to lucid lynx from karmic a few minutes ago.
[23:27] <onetinsoldier> mirra: doing 'apt-get -f install' says that you want to get any packages that are required to be installed but have not yet been installed. the -f stands for 'fix'
[23:27] <studentz> have somebody tried nvidia 195.36.24 driver?
[23:27] <mirra> barbarella, ActionParsnip - my system boots fine. i'm on it right now. gnome has crashed like 4 times since. some apps die for no reason, etc..
[23:27] <darkkrai> my close mini/maximize buttons are on the left side of the window :/
[23:27] <ActionParsnip> southafrikanse: mount te partition using the places menu item then run: gksudo nautilus     you can then do whatever you wish
[23:27] <southafrikanse> sebsebseb: it crashed and it never came back on
[23:27] <crazy7> Anyone know why my system won't boot after trying to install fglrx? It just sits after reporting from fsck, although it responds to ctrl+alt+del
[23:27] <darkkrai> any way to fix this
[23:27] <Fandekasp_> hi
[23:27] <sebsebseb> !controls | darkkrai
[23:27] <ActionParsnip> mirra: reinstall the crashing apps then
[23:28] <_o>    irc.malvager.com  #r00t   ownz you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[23:28] <bastid_raZor> crazy7: fglrx doesn't agree with your video card? uninstall it.
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> mirra: or rinstall the ubuntu-desktop metapackage which may help
[23:28] <Fandekasp_> I would like to create a user who will be only able to see his processus when he types "ps aux" or "top". Do you know how can I do this ? Thank you
[23:28] <studentz> crazy7 what do get in the screen ?
[23:28] <southafrikanse> ActionParsnip: i can access the folders but can't access the files
[23:28] <mirra> ActionParsnip, will that get rid of all of my desktop/gnome personalizations?
[23:28] <ActionParsnip> darkkrai: there are thousands of guides for this online, did you not websearch any at all!?
[23:28] <crazy7> bastid_raZor: I did, by booting on a live CD, and chrooting in. same problem still
[23:28] <poseidon> Jordan_U: Do have any other idea why it's not booting up properly?
[23:29] <darkkrai> thanks, and how to I move the notifications up?
[23:29] <darkkrai> i had it on karmic, forgot where to look
[23:29] <crazy7> studentz: fsck reports, "/dev/sda3 clean", etc, and that's it ... it just sits there after that
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> mirra: no they are stored in $HOME which is untouched
[23:29] <studentz> crazy 7 do you get a console?
[23:29] <ActionParsnip> southafrikanse: even with gksudo?
[23:30] <sebacure_> hola amigos
[23:30] <mirra> ActionParsnip, thanks
[23:30] <crazy7> studentz: nope, no login prompt
[23:30] <southafrikanse> ActionParsnip: yes. no access
[23:30] <sebacure_> tengo problemas con frets on fire se me queda pegado
[23:30] <LjL> !es | sebacure_
[23:30] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: does any new user that you create see all processes when you use 'ps aux'? in other words... have you tried just creating a new regular user yet?
[23:30] <Jordan_U> crazy7: Try pressing ctrl+alt+F1, if it brings you to a login prompt then login then run "sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.fglrx"
[23:31] <dekroning> what exactly does the following mean? " module ABI major version (2) doesn't match the server's version (4)"    it means my driver it using ABI version 2 and the server version 4 ?
[23:31] <kindofabuzz> How do I edit the right click option "Move To" in Gnome?

[23:32] <studentz> crazy7 when is booting i'm not sure but if you press 'c' you can boot level one
[23:32] <ubuntu_mad> can somone tell me how i can acess internet at work booting from a USB flash drive?
[23:32] <crazy7> studentz: 1? I tried putting "single" at the end of the 'linux' line in the grub config, it doesn't seem to do anything
[23:32] <wildbat_laptop> !bot
[23:32] <jd_> help :(
[23:32] <Fandekasp_> onetinsoldier, yes I can see processus from root, 1000, my user etc
[23:33] <BlAck6j73> jd_   try   system>preferences>appearance>fonts
[23:33] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: ok, let me ask this. how many users have you created so far on that system?
[23:33] <jd_> BlAck6j73, I did
[23:34] <Fandekasp_> onetinsoldier, only two
[23:34] <wildbat_laptop> !pppoe | ubuntu_mad
[23:34] <jd_> some font sizes are good, some others not
[23:34] <Nilos> Ok, I found two older wireless drivers
[23:34] <Nilos> not sure if they will work
[23:34] <jd_> for instance, the system settings' font size is good... but firefox's bookmarks are huge
[23:34] <studentz> crazy7 if I'm not wrong with letter 'e' you cab choose the image to boot
[23:34] <ubuntu_mad> ubottu: thanks
[23:34] <Fandekasp_> onetinsoldier, but I'm connected from user 1, and I've opened a shell, su user2 , and ps aux from there
[23:34] <ubuntu_mad> ???
[23:34] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: ok, so you have two users. the one that you are using that can see al processes has an id of 1000.. correct?
[23:34] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: ok, so you have two users. the one that you are using that can see all* processes has an id of 1000.. correct?
[23:35] <Jordan_U> Reign25: Is your wireless working now?
[23:35] <mcl0vin> how can i convert .3GP to mpg from cli please
[23:35] <darkkrai> how do I move notify osd to the top left?
[23:35] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: do not use su
[23:35] <BlAck6j73> jd_   maybe its your browsers fonts that need changing
[23:35] <crazy7> studentz: yeah, I have two kernels, one -pae one, one generic. seems to have the same behavior for all of them
[23:35] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: log int directly as user2
[23:35] <Fandekasp_> onetinsoldier, ok
[23:36] <trism> darkkrai: you don't without editing the code
[23:36] <jd_> BlAck6j73, no, XChat fonts are not good either
[23:36] <jd_> I remember installing a package on karmic that added a menu in the system settings
[23:36] <darkkrai> okay, where can I do that?
[23:36] <jd_> but I don't remember its name...
[23:36] <Reign25> Jordan_U: I was just about to message you.  Thank you so very much!
[23:37] <Reign25> Jordan_U: I'm still having the USB and DVD drive not recognized issue though.
[23:37] <crazy7> studentz: maybe it's possible that fsck is doing a hidden, quiet check on a filesystem in the background... I suppose I'll leave it for a few hours and see if anything changes...
[23:37] <ubuntu_mad> ubottu
[23:37] <Jordan_U> Reign25: You're welcome. Now that wireless is fixed, can you pastebin the output of "dmesg"?
[23:38] <Fandekasp_> onetinsoldier, my user1 has an id of 1000 , my user2 has an id of 1001. and I can see all process from each user
[23:38] <wildbat_laptop> ubuntu_mad, it is just a robot.
[23:38] <wildbat_laptop> !bot | ubuntu_mad
[23:38] <Reign25> Jordan_U: Sure. What was the command again?
[23:38] <ubuntu_mad> wildbat_laptop thanks
[23:38] <crazy7> hrm, maybe trying to install fglrx completely screwed up my initrd 's .... what's the fix for that?
[23:38] <Jordan_U> Reign25: "dmesg | pastebinit"
[23:38] <studentz> crazy7   the idea is to get level two console. At that point you shoul strat with 'startx' command .
[23:38] <southafrikanse> ActionParsnip: i can finally access the files
[23:38] <BlAck6j73> jd_   so are all your apps  looking weird?
[23:38] <southafrikanse> ActionParsnip: thanks for the help
[23:38] <nrodine> I have a clean install, latest version of Xubuntu, I want to be able to display my screen on my laptop on my TV, I have the right cords, but when I plug them in, it doesn't do anything
[23:39] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: well, i am not certain. but i think if you log in directly under a user that 'does not' have a gid of 1000 or is not part of the 'adm' group, i don't think all users processes will show up for him/her
[23:39] <Reign25> Jordan_U: Well, I meant the command you wanted me to pastebin, or was dmesg it?
[23:39] <ActionParsnip> southafrikanse: sweet np duder
[23:39] <jd_> BlAck6j73: not all of them
[23:39] <ubuntu_mad> wildbat_laptop: will the info it gave change my network settings at work permenantly as i dont want to mess up work
[23:39] <Jordan_U> Reign25: dmesg is it
[23:39] <jd_> just most of them :p
[23:39] <dominicdinada> dang it this it getting out of hand... gnome keeps crashing how do i fix it :)
[23:39] <Reign25> Jordan_U: k one sec.
[23:39] <studentz> have somebody tested 195.36.24 nvidia driver?
[23:40] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: sorry... change 'adm' to 'admin'...   not part of the 'admin' group
[23:40] <wildbat_laptop> ubuntu_mad, you on live CD right?
[23:40] <Jordan_U> Reign25: I think I also asked you to pastebin the output of "lshw" but do dmesg first.
[23:40] <Reign25> Jordan_U: Yup. That's what it was. Sure thing.
[23:40] <BlAck6j73> jd_   what are your   system>preferences>appearance>fonts   set at?
[23:40] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: log in directly as user2... type in --> id
[23:40] <ubuntu_mad> wildbat_laptop: yes well  on a persistant USB
[23:41] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: are they part of the 'admin' group? can they see all users processes with 'ps aux'?
[23:41] <Fandekasp_> onetinsoldier, I can see all processes from user2 with id 1001 . How can I see its group ?
[23:41] <wildbat_laptop> ubuntu_mad, i will write on the persistent USB files then
[23:41] <wildbat_laptop> ubuntu_mad, it*
[23:42] <jd_> http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/4161/snapshot1jm.png
[23:42] <onetinsoldier> Fandekasp_: type in --> groups
[23:42] <jd_> as you can see on this screenshot, I have a normal font size in my system settings, but apps menus are huge
[23:42] <ubuntu_mad> wildbat_laptop: for sure ?
[23:42] <ubuntu_mad> if i mess it up at work im in for a right roasting
[23:42] <crazy7> how do I regenerate initrd?
