georgy_28 I'm new. Don't know any commands and installed everything by clicking in synaptics
Bieżąca obiektywizacja woli
hehe in China it is 8 morning
jrib: my FF bombed the other day for some reason and I had to delete ~/.mozilla .. I had a backup from my hardy install and mv ~/.mozilla.back to ~/.mozilla..
Maizcul: system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts to set one
it used to work, then I reloaded and now it doesn't suspend completely
gnutron: yeah, that part is fine. But all the files that extracted also have 755 permissions
user_: it will not be easy, but we will give a shot
Izinucs: does it make a difference if you mv ~/.mozilla/ again? Does the issue persist after a reboot?
georgy_28 I only know the lspci command that spits out a lot of things my computer has ;-)
So, my CDROM isn't ejecting my CD, 'eject' reports /dev/scd0 isn't a block device, and it used to work but isn't now. any ideas? (Ibex i386, 2.6.27-9-generic) fstab: http://pastebin.com/d2eae43a5
Thanks jrib
SpAc: cd dir and chmod 644 * should be ok
What do I type in the command line to update serpentine Please. I have forgotten
user_: first disable the atheros driver from ubuntu
h00k: try: eject /dev/cdrom
jrib: I've since rebooted after moving the file.. I haven't tried just renaming the current .mozilla and letting the system recreate it yet..
georgy_28: ok
does anybody know if there will be a gtk port / ubuntu theme for Songbird? It's quite a nice app from what I've seen, but I don't like the design of it, it looks like an attempt to look too much like too many other things. (Yeah, I've already skinned it to something.. better;)
ActionParsnip, I've tried that, /dev/cdrom doesn't exist, neither does /dev/scd0
do i need nspluginwrapper for java 32bit
georgy_28 "this driver was just deactivated but is still in use
How about this: Anyone recommend a good Linux compatible GPS?
mohbana: nope, just use icedtea
jrib: i trying to install jre6u11
mohbana: I assume you're using ubuntu 64bit?
jrib: yes
__Zombie__: this might help you http://tuxmobil.org/navigation_gps.html
user__, : wait a second
h00k: run mount. it will tell yuo whats mounted where. if you dont have /dev./scd0 you got an issue
wtf evolution doesnt support ipv6
mohbana: if you want a browser plugin, use icedtea. Sun does not provide one. If you just want the jre from sun, it's in the repositories as sun-java6-jre iirc
georgy_28 yes. and thank you
filthpig, Thanks
MY laptop has a FN key to use some keys as extra functions e.g. volume up etc. is there a way to enable these?
ActionParsnip, it's not there. I know the drive works.
h00k: mount will say where its mounted and what dev it is
hello all
OK, somewhat broader question... all the documentation in /usr/share/doc in Ubuntu... am I just supposed to *know* it's there and point a web browser at it, or is there a menu link to it somewhere?
"Konversation terminated!"
what does it mean when a synta error pops up in the terminal
syntax
i need some help to get my wireless intel 4965 agn working
anyone can help me ?
h00k: whats the output of: file /dev/scd0
jrib: but i'm trying to install u11 it was released today
ActionParsnip, it doesn't exist :/
ActionParsnip, mount doesn't report it either
ActionParsnip, but it's in my fstab (which I haven't edited)
h00k: you got an issue with your drive then
h00k: or the config of
ActionParsnip, let me try to eject it before my lappy boots, I'll brb.
jrib: you know sometimes you just have to kick yourself. I had the switch punched to move audio to my headphones so the speakers were "off".. >.<
Maizcul: those should be enabled by default. What language/layout does your keyboard have, and what model is your computer?
Izinucs: heh
h00k: man makedev in a terminal. use with caution.
"Leaving."
mohbana: anything released today is not going to be in the repositories
of course it's not
mohbana: in any case, you can't use nspluginwrapper for java afaik
"Ex-Chat"
right now I' looking at busybox, it says ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/
so how does the java plugin work
anyone know how to fix this "Could not find sensor 'Rhythmlet'" when trying to add a Rhythmlet gDesklet widget
mohbana: you use icedtea...
All the documentation in /usr/share/doc in Ubuntu... am I just supposed to *know* it's there and point a web browser at it, or is there a menu link to it somewhere?
is there a selinux version of cups-pdf ? apparmor is dead :(
jrib: the sun plugin does't work?
mohbana: right
jrib: how did it make itself in the repo
mohbana: huh? How did what make itself in the repo?
Zimbo, dwww on debian does the job you are looking after . Don't know if it exists on ubuntu
Hmm, this is ever so slightly inconvenient, my scrol lock key is on my num lock key when it is pressed with the fn key, doh. /facepalm
jrib: how did it get in the repo if it doesn't work
mohbana: you are using icedtea which the sun plugin won't work with
mohbana: what is "it" in your sentence?
Thanks prahal
!info dwww | Zimbo, prahal_
jrib: the sun plugin
dwww (source: dwww): Read all on-line documentation with a WWW browser. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.10.15 (intrepid), package size 115 kB, installed size 596 kB
mohbana: what package are you referring to?
jrib: sun jre and the plugin
mohbana: that's not the name of a package.
it not relevant, i'm just asking if the sun's plugin works
chat server:/join #ubuntu-it-chat
Flannel, well the summary is wrong . It is read off-line documentation not on-line
mohbana: I told you, there does not exist a sun java plugin for 64bit
user__, go to http://snapshots.madwifi-project.org/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6/ and download the latest release
FYI to anyone, the drive was apparently turned off in BIOS.
jrib: so everyone has to install the icedtea plugin
mohbana: on 64bit yeah, or some plugin other than the one that doesn't exist from sun
dwww doesn't come installed with Ubuntu by default, although I can certainly add it. It wants to also add a whole bunch of Apache-related items too, though -- 8.4GB to
total
Okay, I got my problem cleared, for some reason Ubuntu can't get EDID information from my monitor, so what I can do now ?
h00k: wheee, thats a good thing then.
jrib: slightly OT, but that's pretty bad from Ye Olde Sun the OSS Lover
!resolution | furythor there's info here how to deal with that

gnutron, yeah, good, but why it was turned off is beyond me :)
gnutron, I was really hoping it was nothing too serious
Does anyone know how I mount my external harddrive to have synchronous OFF?

I got freeNX (Nomachine) working locally, but that's not really what my goal is. Can anyone help me? I need to safely connect to my home computer from school. I read that you have to redirect the ssh request to my router, but I'm not that smart and I need someone to explain how to do it (in an easy to understand way).
georgy_28 ok, i dl'ed the dec 4th version now to my desktop
h00k: excellent question. i do not know but good detective work.
georgy_28 and now?
I cant get Serpentine audio CD creator to open. Can anyone help please??
gnutron, thanks for your ideas. Yeah, as far as figuring out why the BIOS changed itself is something I'm not qualified to figure out.
hey guys, quick q, I have a system with an onboard and a pci e based video card, both show up in lspci as fara s I can see (01:00.0 and 01:00.1) I'm running two monitors off one and want to run a third off the other, how would I go about doing this?
"Leaving..."
jrib: I guess they hope to save money from opening the sourcecode and wait for Iced Tea to mature..
user__, : open a terminal and type : cd Desktop
which is pretty un-userfriendly
etherael I'm not sure you can

I read that you have to redirect the ssh request to my router, but I'm not that smart and I need someone to explain how to do it (in an easy to understand way).
leonel: Can you use ssh to connect to machines at school? If not you're probably out of luck (unless you have a very cooperate IT guy at school)
wiijii, I don't even particularily mind if I run a completely different X process for the other video card, is there a way to isolate X and tell it to run only on a certain videocard?
For all I need, is to add this mode to my xorg.conf 1280x1024 @ 60 Hz
Leonel: sorry, ignore that, I read your request incorrectly
georgy_28 terminal was still open from lscpi. so I'm now on my desktop in the terminal in /Desktop
Zimbo: no problem
No keyboard layout for sony vaio? what would you recommend as closest?
etherael possibly, but I've not heard of it being done. Have you looked around for others who might have done it?
Zimbo: but you have any idea?
Leonel: (let me try again) -- How is your computer at home hooked to the Internet? Cable modem? DSL? If there a router involved...?
ethrael and what is the advantage of having two X servers using two cards...?
Hi, I just installed ubuntu et
wiijii, That's why I'm here.
And what OSes are your home and school PCs running?
user__, : sudo mv madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3879-20081204.tar.gz /usr/local
Zimbo: actually...
wiijii, more usable screen space.
"cheerio"
etherael Fair enough. Afraid I've never done that with X, so I'm not sure
my pc at job is running ubuntu and i have win in my home
Maizcul: try googling for it a little, normally you're not alone on such problems. I'm off to bed.. Way too late, as always :( night all
etherael What sort of screen space? Can you not use multiple desktops?
Zimbo, well could be 8M (installing on mine would take 5.5M including apache2) ... could well be that it trigger upgrade of half your current distribution if you had not upgraded for a long while
would anyone like to troubleshoot my external usb-interface hard drive?
i can use this conncetion in the lan, you know 192.168....
georgy_28 didn't do anythink apart from askin for my pw
but i don't know how to connect from outside form example from my home
prahel: This machine is 8.04. I might "pull the trigger" and install it anyway... in a bit.
user_: that's ok, type your password
how can I install a new module in webmin?
georgy_28 oh and the file diesappeared from my dektop
wiijii, Ideally I like to code with three screens, one for doco one for code layout and one for execution / display / debug
leonel: OK, gotcha... if your home PC is 192.168..., that would imply there a router between your home PC and the Internet. There are two things you should do: (1) Set your home PC to a fixed IP address, and then (2) forward port 22 (SSH) on your router to the fixed IP of your home PC
user_ great, now type cd /usr/local
what folder is .bachrc in?
Etherael, So you have a third monitor?
leonel: Doing #2 is a function of the manufacturer/model of router you're using... they're all similar, however... if you know the model we can probably find a web page that describes the process
etherael, So you have a third monitor?
anybody here have success with external webcams? I plug my logitech quick cam in, and it shows up as /dev/video0, and from both lsusb (correctly identified) and lsmod (is using usbcore and videodev).. so it seems it was correctly detected, but 'cheese' and 'easycam-gtk' both report that there is no webcam on the system.. any ideas what's going on?
wiijii, yep, two monitors attached to one card, third monitor attached to the onboard.
georgy_28 ok
etherael, Aaaah sorry, I thought you just wanted another X server... on the same monitor! Heh, stupid. Yeah I use two monitors, couldn't do without them
smee2, ~/
can anyone help with getting ibex 64bit to work with my Logitech MX 620?
cd ..
user : tar xvzf madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6-r3879-20081204.tar.gz
oops
What do you do if an update is stuck in the middle and won't go further? Hasn't for twenty minutes. The terminal details states its stuck on gedit and I have full internet connectivity obviously....
Zimbo: ok, so what about if I want to do same thing in two computer at home, can i redirect to ip address in my router?
leonel: Also (3) -- You need to know the actual Internet IP address of your DSL/cable modem connection. It might (probably does) change from time to time, and you use something like dyndns.org to "fix" that problem, but let's worry about that later. For right now, from your home machine, just go to something like http://www.myipis.org/ and note down what it tells you.
georgy_28 done. Oh, how i hate xchat here. when i click on another place down in the bar ubuntu doens't change to there, i must first minimize xchat. whith other progs it works.
etherael I see what you mean, but is it possible to be using two different graphics drivers simultaneously? Or for one driver to control two GPUs?
how do you create a drop down menu on a panel for your documents in xfce
i had one before but cannot recreate it
prahal_: is it hidden? i can't seem to find it
wiijii, I am not sure you can tell a single X process to do that, but I can't imagine you can't just run a second X display and say "hey there's a card at this PCI bus please talk only to it and use driver x"
Zimbo: ok, so what about if I want to do same thing in two computer at home, can i redirect to ip address in my router?
georgy_28 many erros
smee2, yes . Every dot
leonel: If you have multiple PCs at home, what you have to do is either (1) get your ISP to provide you with multiple IP addresses (usually costs money, so this is not at all a common practice) or (2) you decide to use a non-standard port on the Internet for SSH to the 2nd PC (instead of port 22, use, e.g., 2222), and then have the router direct port 22 to PC #1 (port 22) and port 2222 to PC #2 (port 22)
leonel: (The second method there is pretty common...)
user_ : know we must be sure that you have all the packages to build the driver : sudo apt-get install build-essential
how do i disable minimize effects with compiz disabled and keeping the window contents when dragging
etherael Sounds interesting, I'd never considered it
Interesting. Native Command Queuing is available but turned off on every sata drive I have. I know I can do echo 31 > /sys/block/sdb/device/queue_depth to turn that on.
But I wonder where it's being set this way.
anyone can help me with intel wireless 4965 agn?
etherael Have you asked about in the xorg channel or similar?
georgy_28 can't open - no such file or directory a hundred times and then in the end: error finishing caused by previous errors
My impression was it'd be off by default.
you can switch hidden visbility in nautilus Ctrl+H
Zimbo: Perfect!! thank a lot !!
wiijii, That's a good idea, thanks, I'll check there.
hey guys anyone knows how can i get 4.0 sound on a Realtek ALC662?, I already have 6.0 sound but this option don't let me use the mic input and i only have 2.0 and 6.0 sound options...
leonel: Sure thing, good luck!
user_ : sudo tar xvzf file
etherael Good luck, let me know if you find out anything anytime soon
prahal_: what's nautilus?
Er, on by default.
leonel: I should mention that when you start nxclient from school you of course have to tell it that PC #2 is using port 2222 as well :-)
smee2, the file manager
Zimbo: you are missing a _ that's not me :)
georgy_28 instead of file i copy the name of the thing i downloaded from the website?
user_ : yes, but do a ls and pastebin please
leonel: Ah, I see... IRC appends a "_" when a second user of the same name signs on then? Interesting.
prahal_: awesome, i found it. thanks a lot.
