[00:35] <momule> hello ..  can anyone point Me to a place where I can get some help on LAN  with 3 precise 12.04 and 2 win machines ?
[00:38] <momule> ok .. guess no one home ...  thanks anyway...
[00:48] <Pockets_> I don't know if this should be here or in the regular ubuntu channel, but I am trying to use Kobo Desktop ereader on Ubuntu 12.04. I have it properly installed, (it is not in a repository, but downloaded from the kobo developers) and must be run through the terminal. However, when I run it, I get the error"error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.s0.44: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory"
[00:49] <Pockets_> what do I do to get the libicuuc.so.44 library?
[03:48] <cyung64> I have free space on my computer and I want to increase the partition size of my ubuntu partition does how do I do that?

[04:05] <doc969> Hi guys, I just bought a custom laptop with the  NVIDIA GeForce GT 630M graphics card. I didn't realize there were issues with ubuntu and nvidia until today. Will I have issues when I install Ubuntu?
[05:54] <bookpage> hi there, I was wondering how I can find out if my kernel has support for pv_ops?
[05:58] <mysteriousdarren> bookpage: please explain your situation more in depth please.
[08:39] <Nemui> Hello, I'm getting an SSH/tunneling error -> Channel 2 open failed connect failed no root to host... what should I do?

[11:27] <philinux> sa___: you might get quicker help in #ubuntu
[11:30] <sa___> philinux: I am trying over there but without luck, is there more channels where I can ask?

[11:37] <philinux> sa___: does the wifi adaptor not just work when you plug it in
[11:40] <sa___> philinux: its work like wlan1 probably with some common driver, looks that is not using potencial of the card and this is why I like to install shipped driver

[16:36] <dakaratekid> hello...my install of ubuntu 12.04 did not include /etc/xinetd.conf.  Does this distro not use it?
[16:37] <tsimpson> dakaratekid: not unless you install xinetd
[16:38] <dakaratekid> thx.  I guess that it is an outdated way of service management?  I come exclusively from the Windows world, so this is my first attempt at learning flavor of linux.
[16:39] <tsimpson> most "services" have their own configuration
[16:39] <dakaratekid> And each of these put their configuration in a unique file in /etc ?
[16:40] <tsimpson> usually, yes
[16:41] <dakaratekid> Excellent help.  Thanks.  I spend 20 minutes on google, without much success vs. 3 minutes here!
[16:42] <tsimpson> heh, well humans are still better than algorithms
[16:42] <tsimpson> at least, for now
