<s-fox> Hello
<Bachstelze> hey s-fox 
<s-fox> Hey Bachstelze , how are you doing?
<Bachstelze> very well
<s-fox> Good to hear!
<Bachstelze> just got back from Tunisia yesterday
<Bachstelze> and dnow I must get ready to go to the States :p
<s-fox> Nice.
<Bachstelze> yourself ?
<s-fox> Not bad, just flew in from Tokyo at the weekend. Little jet lagged.
<s-fox> Trip to USA work or pleasure?
<Bachstelze> a little bit of both, I'll be an exchange student
<s-fox> That sounds like a lot of fun.
<Bachstelze> yeah, I'm really looking forward to it
<s-fox> I would be too. Exciting.
<s-fox> When do you fly? This week?
<Bachstelze> oh no, in September
<Bachstelze> but therer's a lot to do with visa stuff, etc.
 * s-fox nods.  I remember getting my visa for USA.  Bit of a pain ;)
<s-fox> At least you have plenty of time to get everything packed and sorted
<s-fox> Oh by the way, I have noticed your thread in the RC Bachstelze .  Not looked properly yet but will have a look soon.
<Bachstelze> okay, great
<s-fox> Hey nothingspecial  :)
<nothingspecial> s-fox: Hey:)
<s-fox> How are you?
<nothingspecial> fine thanks, and you?
<s-fox> A little tired, jet lagged. Also at work which sucks. ;)

<rectec794613> do you guys help out kde users or is there a special channel for that?
<Pici> rectec794613: technically the support channels are #ubuntu and #kubuntu, #ubuntuforums is sadly a lot quieter than those channels.
<rectec794613> aw
<rectec794613> ok thanks i'll be on kubuntu

<FTMichael> I downloaded a little .exe file but when I told it to run under "wine windows program launcher", I just get a black window with the file path in the window's title bar. Nothing to do but close it. Anyone have this and manage to fix it?
<FTMichael> oh, it seems to be winedvm.exe crashing. Apparently other people have had this problem in Natty. Lovely.
<CoreStyx> have a problem with ubuntu 11.04 and mdadm in conjunction with lvm. 
<CoreStyx> as soon as mdadm creates a RAID device like dev/md0 and a volume is created via lvm i get udev-worker error (inotify_add_watch(6, /dev/md0,10) failed: no such device.
<CoreStyx> how do I tell udev to ignore md0 and instead add the logical volume created on top of it.
<CoreStyx> Does anybody know?

<kroq-gar78> Hello all. I'm wondering why I have to log in to see some archived posts. Some I do, yet some I do not. That's not really a problem for me as I have an account and I can used the cached google page, but why do I have to log in? I would reason that you wouldn't have to create an account to access certain archived posts.

<blast_hardcheese> So, what's the deal with ubuntuforums requiring registration?
<blast_hardcheese> Anyone?
<jdong> blast_hardcheese: only the forum archive and attachments require registration
<jdong> the reason the archive requires registration was meant to be to hide it from  Google and other search engines
<jdong> though it seems to be a royal pain in the ass to convince them to stop believing they have those pages indexed now
<jdong> we were asked by the Kernel Team, along with other teams, to do this, because Google kept on turning up out of date and inaccurate HOWTO's for common search terms
<blast_hardcheese> jdong: blarg. That makes sense, but should probably be explained on the "ACCESS DENIED" page so it doesn't just make you guys look like jerks
<jdong> blast_hardcheese: yeah, we didn't expect that many users to hit it. We thought it'd be a transient thing
<jdong> we trusted Google's magic-ness :)
<jdong> and ugh, that "access denied" page is stupid. But it's vBulletin default. I'll see if any of our web templates people want to update the wording
<blast_hardcheese> Much appreciated :)
<NonConformist> I'm trying to do a frugal install on my pc and right when it starts copying files the installer crashes... help me please ^^

<BHSPitMo1key> Aquix: no, I literally see a blank white page
<Aquix> hmmmm. works here 
<BHSPitMo1key> like you might expect to see in the case of a php error

<Aquix> right?
<BHSPitMo1key> Aquix: yes
<Aquix> firefox?
<BHSPitMo1key> yes, though I also tried epiphany
<BHSPitMo1key> and now chrome, same issue
<BHSPitMo1key> (mind you, I'm not logged in under either of those browsers)
<Aquix> try empty the browser cache
<Aquix> and restart firefox
<BHSPitMo1key> Aquix: well as I said, I'm producing the same problem in three very different browsers on this machine...

<sspencerwire> Longtime Ubuntu user here and a net admin.  Since 11.04, there are some strangenesses that may or may not help newbies, but really don't help someone who has been using the system and Linux in general for years.  For example, recently in 11.04, there seems to be a problem with the mv command and tab completion at the command line.  Anyone else noticed this?
<sspencerwire> Tab completion will complete, but will pad the results with a space.
<schauerlich> Not on ubuntu at the moment, but that sounds like a gnome-terminal change
<schauerlich> does it also pad for directories, or just when it completes to a single file name?
<sspencerwire> Sorry for the delay getting back, was in the middle of some work issues.  It pads for both files and directories, no difference.  Could be a gnome terminal issue, I'm sure.

<Gredeu> i have a valid user account on ubuntuforums.org however it won't allow me to retrieve a password reset.  its a valid account.  
<Gredeu> i get the best assistance or ubuntu on the forums.  
<Gredeu> i also want to use the forums for privacy reasons
<bkerensa> Is there any reason I'm forced to login to forums to view certain threads?
<zenrox> no idea
<bkerensa> =/
<zenrox> thought thay were all open to read
<bkerensa> just a little time consuming to sometimes to view something and be prompted
<bkerensa> thats what I thought too
<bkerensa> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=309749
<bkerensa> is a example of a thread that talks about tray docking and it prompted me =/
<zenrox> Hello, zenrox You are browsing a READ only archive of the main support categories pre 4/21/2008. You will not be able to post or reply any threads in this section. Be aware that some of the information is outdated and may cause problems to a current installation. 
<zenrox> you have to be loged in to read the old stuff
<bkerensa> odd :P
<bkerensa> I guess they do that to reduce traffic consumption? 
<zenrox> and i am loged in
<zenrox> not only to protect new users
<zenrox> makes sence why thay would do that
<bkerensa> well I have been prompted on newer threads in the past too like stuff thats only a few months old
<zenrox> hmm odd
<zenrox> i just keep myself loged in i dont have that prob
<bkerensa> :D well my browser clears every time I close it and plus I have Bleachbit set to run in cron twice daily to wipe all temp data :D so thats not gonna be easy for me 
<zenrox> should just set it to ignore that website
<zenrox> or that cookie
<Aquix> bkerensa   why do you have  cron to run bleachbit twice a day?
<bkerensa> Aquix: I like a clean system :D
<bkerensa> Aquix: Chrome doesnt delete as much data as it suggets in fact it leaves tidbits so the only way to fully nuke stuff is via bleachbit or shred
<bkerensa> I dont like wipe my free space but I do have it say to nuke chrome, firefox and a couple other trivial things now and then
<bkerensa> like rotated logs
<Aquix> I see. afraid someone will look at your computer?
<bkerensa> no I just dont like leaving cookies for tracking purposes
<bkerensa> plus I dont like the idea of having the risk of someone being able to login to an account if I leave traces of data
<bkerensa> :D
<bkerensa> ie: Bank Acct, etc
<Aquix> I just stay logged out from google, and for the bank I log in with my cellphone. Cookies or not, there are enough companies doing ip tracking anyway.
<bkerensa> Aquix: Well I have LastPass + YubiKey so I'm pretty secure but just for safety :D
<Aquix> better things for safety out there. Get noscript and better privacy  addons
