| K_Dallas | Good evening again! With old HDD, I used to use hdparm to set the parameters. Rigth now though, I have installed Gutsy on toshiba-satellite and doing hdparm -I /dev/sda I get udma5. Is that all right or should I change it (HDD is SATA) Thanks | 00:00 |

| wols_ | xxx_: but it ignores permissions too | 00:00 |
| josiahw | is there a way for me to resize my partitions on my windows machine? or would i be better off doing a complete format of the system and installing both? | 00:01 |
| utahvw | RazzoRz:you probably dont want to use the scrrens and graphics thing...if you are using the proprietary ati driver it should install a nice little gui config tool...thats what you want to use...unless you like to edit the xorg.conf by hand ;-) | 00:01 |

| michelson | how does on install the PAE kernel module on an ubuntu feisty server? | 00:01 |
| RazzoRz | utahvw: not sure where that tool is ... care to help | 00:01 |
| josiahw | [Neurotic]: Ill give it a look | 00:01 |
| wols_ | goldbond_: the mount itself doesn't work as seen with mount /mnt/f | 00:02 |
| rsfriends | why i try to talk in skype, the other person dont hear me, i have see the setting , i just cant finde some thing wrong.... | 00:02 |
| goldbond_ | wols_what could be the problem? is it with the drive? | 00:02 |
| michelson | will my ubuntu machine use > 4 G ram if i don't have the pae kernel module instaled? | 00:02 |
| wols_ | goldbond_: does /mnt/f exist/ ls -d /mnt/f | 00:02 |
| === xp_lunch is now known as xp_prg |
| wols_ | michelson: ony on x86-64 ubuntu. not in i386 ubuntu | 00:02 |

| Pici | irreducibilis: no. | 00:03 |
| juano__ | josiahw: but for now u can try the normal gparted is good | 00:03 |
| RazzoRz | sure thing!... | 00:03 |
| michelson | wols_: shoot. this is a 32 bit system. when i use free i only see 3G ram :( | 00:03 |
| goldbond_ | wols_: it exists but it is empty | 00:03 |
| wols_ | xxx_: ask a real question | 00:03 |
| speps | hey guys a simple question.what does ${@} means?thanks | 00:03 |
| Thiago_Adriano | there`s something like a how to ubuntu into a hp laptop? | 00:03 |
| xxx_ | :P | 00:03 |
| eurowerke | georgeb: it held the static IP after reboot | 00:03 |
| utahvw | RazzoRz:i think its ati-xconfig or something like that | 00:03 |
| wols_ | xxx_: and if you need 2GB swap, then you have a problem (unless it's for suspend only) | 00:03 |

| msbhvn | so in ubuntu on a powerpc with a one-button mac mouse how does one remove quick launch shortcuts from top menu bar? | 00:03 |
| michelson | wols_: can i fix it so it sees all the ram? | 00:03 |
| josiahw | juano__: looks like there is a live usb as well :) | 00:04 |
| goldbond_ | wols_: but it looks like fdisk detects it? what could be the problem? i am lost. | 00:04 |
| RazzoRz | No sorry did not work | 00:04 |
| RazzoRz | take your time | 00:04 |
| juano__ | josiahw: yea i think so too | 00:04 |
| wols_ | michelson: only if you use 64bit ubuntu | 00:04 |
| eddy | how do I use super user to open a file browser? (Like nautilis) | 00:04 |
| michelson | wols_: what about the PAE kernel module? | 00:04 |
| wols_ | michelson: do you have a xeon? | 00:04 |
| eurowerke | LOL I think i created my own troubles by assuming dhclient was running | 00:04 |
| michelson | wols_: clovertown | 00:04 |
| juano__ | eddy: gksudo nautilus *adir*} | 00:04 |
| kitche | msbhvn: the one-button mac mouse is actually a two button mouse depending on how you click it you have to set it up though for that I believe which I have noc lue how to | 00:04 |
| xxx_ | no i dont use 2 gig swap i only use 1gb but since i have 1.5 gig ram and the recommended swap is 2x ram then i was just asking ? | 00:04 |
| Pici | michelson: the -server kernel does not have restricted drivers. | 00:04 |
| eurowerke | and testing it after I set the static IP | 00:04 |
| wols_ | michelson: look for a bigmem kernel | 00:04 |
| eurowerke | so I STARTED it after setting up the static IP, and then it ran and would renew | 00:05 |
| josiahw | juano__: so if my harddrive has information on it that gets resized will it mess it up? | 00:05 |
| eurowerke | we'll see how it works out tomorrow :) | 00:05 |
| eurowerke | thanks georgeb | 00:05 |
| bascule | kitche: press and hold IIRC | 00:05 |
| michelson | Pici: sorry, so if it doesn't have the restricted drivers, does that mean i can't use the ram > 4 G? | 00:05 |
| === joe_ is now known as joevandyk |
| kitche | bascule: well that to but that's not what I meant | 00:05 |
| michelson | wols_: i was hoping it would come with a big mem kernel. it's a dedicated server from a hosting company | 00:05 |
| georgeb | eurowerke: np | 00:05 |
| juano__ | josiahw: you should never resize over the yellow section, which is the data area, partition then will probably be unaccesible | 00:05 |
| Pici | michelson: it does, but it means that you probably can't use your ati/nvidia/wifi properly. | 00:05 |
| josiahw | juano__: or if I already have a ntfs partition sitting there with nothing on it will ubuntu allow me to install onto that? and not mess up my current Vista installation? | 00:06 |
| michelson | Pici: well it is a server, so i don't need any of that | 00:06 |
| Pici | michelson: then I'd use it | 00:06 |
| Pici | michelson: the server install CD installs the -server kernel by default. | 00:06 |
| juano__ | josiahw: you will need a / partition, and a swap partition at least | 00:06 |
| michelson | Pici: does that mean the server kernel will use all my ram >4 G? | 00:06 |
| juano__ | josiahw: / can be ext2 or ext3 | 00:07 |
| Pici | michelson: yes. | 00:07 |
| msbhvn | kitche: cool, will google some more | 00:07 |
| michelson | Pici: but 'top' and 'free' only show less than 4G ram | 00:07 |
| josiahw | juano__: right but cant ubuntu do format and change my current ntfs blank partition? | 00:07 |
| juano__ | josiahw: you have 2 ntfs partitions ? one with vista and the other blank ? | 00:07 |
| Pici | michelson: are you running the server kernel? does your processor support PAE? | 00:07 |
| josiahw | juano__: yes | 00:07 |
| juano__ | josiahw: then there should be a problem to format the empty one | 00:07 |
| michelson | Pici: supports PAE, yes, I believe so, intel clovertown cpus, but PAE module isn't installed | 00:08 |
| Dred_furst | Hey, I am looking for some help with my wireless card in my laptop | 00:08 |
| Pici | michelson: `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep pae` should tell you | 00:08 |
| josiahw | juano__: my ntfs partion is 100gb and my blank ntfs partition is 900gb | 00:08 |

| hennk | i am using a logitech quickcam with 7.10 and the skype beta with video support. the image is very dark. in camorama i can raise the brightness, but the setting won't stick. any chance to do this globally, so that skype will get a brighter picture? | 00:09 |

| xxx_ | lol | 00:09 |
| Dred_furst | my wireless chipset is a marvell libertas 88w8335 | 00:09 |
| Pici | michelson: Well, thats the problem. You are running the -386 kernel, not the -server kernel | 00:09 |
| xxx_ | true | 00:09 |
| bascule | *never* ... I think you will, hddvd is huge | 00:09 |
| michelson | Pici: shoot. well thanks a lot for your help! much appreciated! | 00:09 |

| josiahw | ok but I dont have to do anything before installing ubuntu onto my computer? if i install ubuntu after windows is already on the system will it still bootup with lilo? | 00:10 |
| robobob | http://pastebin.com/m65cc317a | 00:10 |
| xxx_ | ¬¬ i know few ppl who download hddvd , blueray iso's | 00:10 |
| juano__ | josiahw: well anyway, as you can see, if you format the blank partition *if it is really blank and nothing installed from vista on there* then its ok, it would be logically like disconnecting a HDD if you think it | 00:10 |
| robobob | could some1 ahve a look please | 00:10 |
| dj_ | Is there a myspace IM client for Linux? or one that works for myspace IM? | 00:10 |
| juano__ | josiahw: vista should just recognize the new size | 00:11 |
| josiahw | juano__: im just worried about the bootup i guess... and ubuntu formatting my current windows partition | 00:11 |
| fsckr | anyone here run dual monitors and have separate wallpaper on each one? | 00:11 |
| AndrewB | dj_: pidgin maybe does? | 00:11 |
| josiahw | but will vista or lilo boot first? so i can choose which to boot from? | 00:11 |
| AndrewB | I'm not sure off the top of my head dj_ | 00:11 |
| Dred_furst | has anyone got any suggestions? | 00:11 |
| juano__ | josiahw: after you install ubuntu, grub will be installed, then you can boot from grub to your vista | 00:11 |
| bascule | on what | 00:11 |
| josiahw | because i dont think windows has any dual boot startup programs | 00:11 |
| xxx_ | josiah just run the vista cd | 00:12 |

I'm trying to set up the external monitor on my laptop through the handy 'screens and graphics' application and whichever device I select as the Model for Screen 2, it brings up a file browser with the title "Choose a driver file". It did work previously (with a different screen connected, but still), perhaps my recent 'apt-get autoremove' did more than it should have? | 00:12 |

| xxx_ | :P | 00:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !firewall | 00:18 |
| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 00:18 |

| grigora | Hi, I used to be able to double click on the desktop and get all my sticky notes to hide, but now I can't. I have to specifically go to the sticky notes icon, open the menu and hide them from there. Anyway around this? or even configuring for those notes to always stay hidden on startup? Thanks | 00:18 |

| xxx_ | if only manufacturers gave better support for unix systems :( | 00:19 |
| mapez | xxx_ I used Fedora back when the third installment was released. Personally I like Ubuntu better, as the community is very friendly and it works for me. | 00:19 |
| cafuego | esqueleto: Then there are no firewall rules. (Check with 'sudo iptables -L -n -v' in a terminal window) | 00:19 |
| juano_1 | xxx_: i agree with that one | 00:19 |
| juano_1 | xxx_: x fedora user here too | 00:19 |
| josiahw | magnetron: ok... another issue Im guessing im going to run into and my wireless card... something I wish linux would get a hold of is hardware drivers.... or rather I wish hardware manufacturers would work on | 00:19 |
| P_Kable | mneptok>> same problem, it won't appear in the list :( | 00:19 |
| xxx_ | i think the core reason ppl dont switch so easily to linux is becouse of the compatibility | 00:19 |

| juano_1 | Synx_hm: type dmesg in a terminal | 00:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Enslaved: you need to understand that firestarter is NOT a firewall.. it is an iotable manager | 00:25 |
| jordan | Alright fair enough, thanks | 00:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | iptable | 00:26 |
| josiahw | Ok so if flash works on 64bit should I just use the 64bit? Or will I have other issues with plugins? | 00:26 |
| Synx_hm | juano_1, i cant get that far ;) i think im getting a kernel panic from softraid on boot | 00:26 |

| soldats | Templer, i wonder why it does that it should work fine without changing anything | 00:52 |
| josiahw | Ok I will give those a shot. | 00:52 |
| soldats | Templer, did you set your home box to accept incomming connections | 00:53 |
| stansmith | where can i find where the repositories for fiesty fawn are located? | 00:53 |
| IdleOne | Templer: you probably need to port forward traffic from your public ip to the static ip of the machine you want to connect to | 00:53 |
| stansmith | !sources.lst | 00:53 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about sources.lst - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:53 |
| Templer | soldats , im connected via a router but im not sure if its firewalled | 00:53 |
| PeterT | !sources.list | 00:53 |
| ubotu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource | 00:53 |
| soldats | Templer, foreward the ports | 00:53 |
| stansmith | PeterT: thanks | 00:54 |
| stansmith | !easysource | 00:54 |
| Templer | is it 5800 for vnc | 00:54 |
| ubotu | source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic | 00:54 |
| PeterT | stansmith: ok | 00:54 |
| soldats | Templer, i believe so but im not sure i havent used vnc for about 2 years id look at the config or readme pages and it should tell you what it connects on | 00:55 |
| Squee | Hey, I'm currently trying to upgrade from Ubuntu Feisty to gusty gibbon, and the upgrader keeps telling me it can't get an exclusive lock. I've restarted the computer, and I've run it with no other applications open, but I still get the error. Is there some fix out there? | 00:55 |
| Templer | thanks | 00:55 |
| sunogbaga | Squee: ps ax | grep apt | 00:56 |
| Squee | hm? | 00:56 |
| soldats | Templer, also make sure on your ubuntu box you set it up to accept remote desktop sharing | 00:56 |
| sunogbaga | Squee: it apt may may be running | 00:56 |
| sunogbaga | Squee: apt may may be running | 00:56 |
| Squee | So what do I do? | 00:57 |
| scguy318 | sunogbaga: your grep won't catch a GUI package manager | 00:57 |
| bazhang | !aptfix | 00:57 |
| ubotu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 00:57 |
| sunogbaga | scguy318: thnx,. how should i do it? | 00:57 |
| josiahw | Think I would be ok with just keeping ubuntu and not dualbooting with vista to play my system intense games? Using VMWare or something? | 00:57 |
| scguy318 | sunogbaga: perhaps lsof /var/lib/dpkg/lock or something like that | 00:58 |
| josiahw | or will VMWare not work that well? | 00:58 |
| sunogbaga | Squee: kill it if you wan't or wait till it ends | 00:58 |
| bazhang | josiahw: not for the 3d stuff | 00:58 |
| scguy318 | josiahw: VMware and games don't mix, too slow, VMware only has experimental 3D rendering | 00:58 |
| PeterT | josiahw: I'd be surprised if VMWare would work for that | 00:58 |
| Squee | josiahw, the effectiveness of vmware varies, and using it makes it harder run your system to play the games | 00:58 |
| sunogbaga | Squee: thnx i'll try that | 00:58 |
| Squee | That wasn't me that helped you :P | 00:58 |
| josiahw | ok | 00:59 |
| josiahw | thanks :( | 00:59 |
| sunogbaga | Squee: sorry, I mean thanx scguy318 | 01:00 |

| Flannel | localgod11: Is there any particular reason you're using dapper still? Have you tried a gutsy liveCD? | 01:04 |
| PeterHS | localgod11: go to the terminal and type lspci, that will give you the chipset information | 01:04 |
| scguy318 | Flannel: cuz its LTS I believe | 01:04 |
| localgod11 | dapper is the LTS, i am using it inside a digital photo frame the screen saver actually worsk better | 01:04 |

| localgod11 | ok | 01:34 |
| PirateHead | I never do it on purpose, and when I do it by accident it freaks me out. | 01:34 |
| helluvaCSMajor | they are being created automatically | 01:35 |
| Viper550 | with names like... _________? | 01:35 |
| PeterHS | localgod11: the files are \etc\network\interfaces | 01:35 |
| helluvaCSMajor | scrambled junk | 01:35 |
| yuhong | In any case, should there be a PAE kernel in Ubuntu because NX is enabled by default in Windows and NX requires PAE? | 01:35 |
| sunogbaga | PirateHead: good question, it irritates me also.. anyone? | 01:36 |

| helluvaCSMajor | scrambled symbols, not even letters | 01:38 |
| helluvaCSMajor | they appear random | 01:38 |
| localgod11 | peterhs is the command sudo gedit \et\network\interfaces | 01:38 |
| PeterT | scguy318: I feel pretty stupid: it's possible that I was pressing the 'add' button rather than 'ok' at one point. I should stop trying these things at 1am... need to restart / log off to test. Thanks again... | 01:39 |
| Thesmyth | Truz , you should get the alternate CD | 01:39 |
| Thesmyth | it gives a text only installer | 01:39 |

| Thesmyth | Hey all, quick question, how do I control what shows up in my list of mountable partitions? On the side of Nautilus' explorer it shows a list of all of my drives, but I'd like to remove some | 01:40 |
| PeterHS | you can copy the commands directly from the website | 01:40 |
| PeterHS | localgod11: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202834 this might help around step 2-3 | 01:40 |

| zoexii | hi I am having big problems with my display. Xorg is configured to display at 1024x768 (native display of my laptop) however, I only get an 800x600 desktop which is tiled on my screen, (super weird) I go to system>preferences>screen resolution and it only gives me options 640x480 & 800x600. both of which have been deleted from my xorg. | 01:42 |
| Thesmyth | I did already, they don't mount automatically, thy just show up in the left side of nautilus with the option to mount | 01:42 |
| helluvaCSMajor | any ideas what i should do about the random folders? | 01:42 |
| PeterHS | that is okay, just edit the config files to use eth2 and erase all others unless you use a wired connection | 01:42 |
| LapatiK | zoexii, system->admin->screen&graphics? | 01:43 |
| zoexii | LapatiK, ok, will try | 01:43 |

| helluvaCSMajor | when i did, random folders starting showing up in my home folder, i don't know why | 01:45 |
| heartsblood | did you try to mount to ~? | 01:45 |
| PeterHS | helluva: unsure how to solve | 01:45 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i don't know what i did, i am a new linux user, i followed a tutorial | 01:45 |
| localgod11 | peterhs when i run a network restart it says failed to bring up eth2 no such device | 01:45 |
| heartsblood | sounds like you mounted the windows drive to your home directory | 01:45 |
| Thesmyth | did you edit any files or just type a command? | 01:45 |
| heartsblood | ie sudo mount /place/to/windows /home/helluvaCSmajor | 01:46 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i don't remember, i can access it in the drives folder, but the home folder contains empty folders with symbols as names | 01:46 |
| heartsblood | hmm | 01:46 |
| _MattB | i created a raid array (md0) with mdadm, how can i totally get rid of it now? | 01:46 |
| PeterHS | localgod11: type ifconfig into the terminal | 01:46 |
| heartsblood | when you ls -ls who is the owner/group? | 01:46 |
| PeterHS | then try iwconfig | 01:46 |
| PeterHS | do you have eth2? | 01:47 |
| localgod11 | ok | 01:47 |
| daks | what could cause gnome to start very slowly? Or cause most programs to start slower...is there any standard maintenance procedure like defragging to keep the system running smooth? | 01:47 |
| localgod11 | eth2 is the wieless | 01:47 |
| helluvaCSMajor | i don't have one, i deleted them right before going on here, i delete them every day because they fill up the folder | 01:47 |
| localgod11 | id says it find the device | 01:47 |
| helluvaCSMajor | well, not every day, every week maybe | 01:48 |

| Thesmyth | helluva: if you type the command "mount" what does it say? | 01:49 |

| helluvaCSMajor | should i? | 01:49 |

| achandrashekar | cflopez: they are a pain..you can either try fwcutter or try to use ndiswrapper. | 02:50 |
| pestilence | Donka: it certainly could. did you try googling the error that it gives you | 02:50 |
| nixNewb | achandrashekar: do you have to boot a computer with it? | 02:50 |
| cflopez | i tried them both and they didnt seem to work | 02:50 |
| cflopez | i got it working by a sheer miracle... i found the restricted driver thing and activated it, next thing i know its working | 02:50 |

| Donka | pestilence: i am as we speak | 02:50 |
| pestilence | that's pretty old, though. | 02:50 |
| cflopez | it asked me to reboot and then it wasnt working again | 02:50 |
| Rafabe | how do I change the driver being used for X through the console (ie, if X is failing to load because I tried to switch from proprietary ATI driver to the open one) | 02:51 |
| === tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso |
| pestilence | Budda|: i don't know. but it seems that is what people use for the atheros chipset-based cards | 02:51 |
| Rafabe | I need to revert to select the proprietary driver | 02:51 |
| achandrashekar | achandrashekar: yep..that is correct. it uses bootp mechanism, pulls up a dhcp address and uses network resources and pulls up the system. God that is a shitty explanation, but you get the idea. | 02:51 |
| scguy318 | Rafabe: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 02:51 |
| Rafabe | scguy: I did. Didn't fix it. | 02:51 |
| scguy318 | Rafabe: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg if you just want defaults with driver selection | 02:51 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: is the driver using fwcutter? | 02:51 |
| Rafabe | thanks sc | 02:51 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: u'r sure your router isn't under dhcp? coz it's the only problem i can think of so far.. | 02:51 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: or is trying to use the native driver some how. | 02:52 |
| cflopez | i tried it both ways | 02:52 |
| some_idiot | why does tab completio nnot work in 'grub' on latest ubuntu? | 02:52 |
| cflopez | native drive worked, i couldnt use the fwcutter to work | 02:52 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: this forum has been inundated with bcm stuff..which usually gets resolved by using ndiswrapper | 02:52 |
| spydabyte | sunogbaga : how exatcly do i tell | 02:52 |
| pestilence | Budda|: your other option is to use ndiswrapper. | 02:53 |
| cflopez | my snooping around the forums showed the same thing, always ndiswrapper | 02:53 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: what's the ip of your router? | 02:53 |
| spydabyte | 192.168.0.1 | 02:53 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: if it's 192.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x then your under dhcp | 02:53 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: right...the bcm stuff is very propietary..and the g'damn windows driver seems to the best choice | 02:53 |
| scguy318 | sunogbaga: not necessarily | 02:53 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: you'll have to contact your isp | 02:53 |
| Fezzler | Why will not my Screen Resolution Refresh Rate setting stay? It boots into 50mHz not matter how may times I change to 96 mHz??? | 02:53 |
| spydabyte | i think it is dhcp | 02:54 |
| spydabyte | why is that ? | 02:54 |
| mnemonica | scguy318: Universe repository has been enabled. | 02:54 |
| spydabyte | last time i called em about a unix issue they said ha what u want us to do | 02:54 |
| scguy318 | mnemonica: then do sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 | 02:54 |
| cflopez | but i cant seem to get past step 14 of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201902 | 02:54 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: id dig around a bit though on sites...you'll want that biatch to start on boot. and not have to invoke it once the system starts...there is a write up for that as well... | 02:54 |
| narothepharoh | my screensaver doesnt work screen just goes blank | 02:54 |
| robdig | narothepharoh: does it work when you preview it? | 02:54 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: your own network is using static ips however u are still under a larger network, | 02:54 |
| RB2 | Is anyone here an lm-sensors guru? | 02:54 |
| pestilence | !ask | 02:55 |
| ubotu | Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 02:55 |
| narothepharoh | robdig yes | 02:55 |
| cflopez | not have to invoke it once the system starts..... i think im lost | 02:55 |
| spydabyte | right but shouldnt i be able to port forward or dmz that box ... so public can get to it ... | 02:55 |
| Rafabe | scguy318: I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , it mentioned writing default files. I then rebooted. I got as far as the "loading local boot scripts" screen, then nothing happens. | 02:55 |
| spydabyte | its like my windows box | 02:55 |
| spydabyte | i open port 21 to use ftp | 02:55 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: that should tell you if the driver is claimed | 02:55 |
| achandrashekar | step 14 that is.. | 02:55 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: you have your router there righ? | 02:56 |
| mnemonica | scguy318: Did what you asked... Got this ---> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47782/ | 02:56 |
| spydabyte | yes | 02:56 |
| scguy318 | sunogbaga: if you hook two computers via crosswire, and assign them an IP in the 192.168.0.0/16 or 10.0.0.0/8 range, that's not really using DHCP :P | 02:56 |
| demonotaku | hi hi :) | 02:56 |
| scguy318 | mnemonica: close Synaptic | 02:56 |
| mneptok | scguy318: "crossover" ;) | 02:56 |

| achandrashekar | cflopez: and try again...but first you need to remove the drivers...by removing them with ndiswrapper | 02:59 |
| david_J | TheNo1Yeti: Windows is set up to sahre internet right? | 02:59 |
| narothepharoh | how do install a camera | 02:59 |

| nixNewb | patagon: hi | 03:00 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: you are doing just fine.....this is how you LEARN | 03:00 |
| TheNo1Yeti | david_J: Yes, xp is setup to share the internet connection and the nics are bridged like they are suppose to be (been a long time since I have had to do this) route gives me destination of 192.168.0.0 and default with gateway of 192.168.0.1 | 03:00 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: good luck | 03:00 |

| narothepharoh | how do install a camera ??? | 03:01 |
| patagon | nixNewb, ;D | 03:01 |
| u_angel | nixnewb: don't use vnc, use freenx instead. i installed it via ssh | 03:01 |
| david_J | TheNo1Yeti: check for nameserver | 03:01 |
| spydabyte | that was when i opened port 3889 | 03:01 |
| cflopez | i know i know, its just frustrating sometimes... you can troubleshoot windows over the phone half asleep with more than a couple of drinks on you, then its back to being a noob | 03:01 |
| david_J | TheNo1Yeti: in the /etc/resolv.conf | 03:01 |
| MokonaSan | nixNewb: Yes, VNC will still operate without a monitor. I did it before. Of course, installing it without one may be tough | 03:01 |
| benzs_s | okay guys i've tried everything... why doesn't flash have sound :< | 03:01 |

| scguy318 | ty: why Realplayer? crappy play imho :P | 03:01 |
| TheNo1Yeti | Yea, cat resolv.conf gives me "search mshome.net nameserver 192.168.0.1" | 03:01 |

| narothepharoh | robdig it is not a link | 03:04 |

Then I got to thinking it would be great if I could stream this stuff, so I would not need to download stuff and wait for it | 03:09 |
| insllvn | . is this possible? what software would I need? how much work would the server be doing, and how much horsepower would it need? | 03:09 |

| nomic | ok thanks bye | 03:12 |
| david_J | josiahw: The ubuntu website can help you... | 03:12 |
| spydabyte | yeah im the only one with the ip | 03:12 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: what does that tell you | 03:12 |
| radioaktivstorm | hello my sound has spontaneously gone buggy. I have no idea what happened... i turned my computer on, and now the music is muffled and quiet. any pointers? | 03:12 |
| cflopez | ok | 03:12 |
| cflopez | did that jwd | 03:12 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: no i mean, people from outside the network... | 03:12 |
| shadowblade | pestilence: (hd0,4) | 03:12 |
| spydabyte | is there any config files i need to check ? | 03:12 |
| spydabyte | yes the guy lives in florida | 03:12 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: do you have grub installed on the MBR? if so, type | 03:12 |
| marnanel | Hello. I have upgraded to gutsy today, and I have lost my /home partition; instead, something prints "device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table" to syslog forever. I have ssh'd into the machine from elsewhere. Does anyone have any clues as to how I would go about fixing this? | 03:13 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: root (hd0,4) | 03:13 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: setup (hd0) | 03:13 |
| pestilence | then quit and reboot | 03:13 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: and what ip does he use to connect to ur box? | 03:13 |
| === Moniker8241 is now known as Moniker42 |
| marnanel | It also prints " device-mapper: table: 254:1: linear: dm-linear: Device lookup failed" | 03:13 |
| spydabyte | my main outside ip | 03:13 |
| shadowblade | pestilence: ok, it said it succeeded | 03:13 |
| david_J | marnanel: raid? or lvm or neither? | 03:13 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: oh, you might want to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst on that partition | 03:13 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: what ip format is that? | 03:13 |
| spydabyte | then he tries to login .. with correct info and it tells him wrong pass | 03:13 |
| spydabyte | 24.*.*.* | 03:14 |
| pestilence | so that it points to the correct partition (otherwise you'll get new errors) | 03:14 |
| RB2 | With gDesklets, is there a way to remove all the desklets? I have one I added by mistake that is throwing an error. So, none of them come up after the error occurs. I can't see it to remove it. :-/ | 03:14 |
| cflopez | what now guys? | 03:14 |
| spydabyte | i cant login with anything other then 192.168.0.10 | 03:14 |
| marnanel | david_J: Neither-- just one partition which is /, one which is /home, and one which is swap. | 03:14 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: and this is your routers ip? | 03:14 |
| marnanel | david_J: I can find the /dev/sdaX numbers if you like | 03:14 |
| shadowblade | pestilence: what do i change in it? | 03:14 |
| spydabyte | subtwo i guess | 03:14 |
| spydabyte | erm | 03:14 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: fo a ndiswrapper -l | 03:15 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: and this is your routers ip? | 03:15 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: make sure its gone | 03:15 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: | 03:15 |
| david_J | marnanel: odd.. maybe a fstab problem... device mapper is used for lvm2, raid, or luks | 03:15 |
| cflopez | back sorry | 03:15 |
| achandrashekar | then reinstall | 03:15 |
| shadowblade | pestilence: just the root options to (hd0,4) ? | 03:15 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: well, you'll want to change the references to the old partition to references to the new partition. e.g. hda1 --> hda5 | 03:15 |
| marnanel | david_J: I thought I hadn't heard of it before. | 03:15 |
| josiahw | how much swap is recommended for a high end computer? using a 300gb partition | 03:15 |
| spydabyte | sunogbaga: this box is 24.169.175.165 but with port 21 forwarded in the 192.168.0.1 page i can use spyda.sytes.net to connect to ftp | 03:15 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: or possible sda1 --> sda5 | 03:15 |
| pestilence | *possibly | 03:15 |
| spydabyte | unix box shows up as 192.168.0.10 | 03:15 |
| cflopez | is fo a commands? | 03:15 |
| cflopez | command? | 03:15 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: as i remember jwd helped you remove it.. and now make SURE its gone with ndiswrapper -l | 03:15 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: got it? | 03:15 |
| marnanel | david_J: for what it's worth, the upgrade process didn't touch /etc/fstab. | 03:16 |
| spydabyte | i even dmz 192.168.0.10 and still cant connect | 03:16 |
| cflopez | still says invalid drivers | 03:16 |
| shadowblade | pestilence: i think so | 03:16 |
| pestilence | shadowblade: but yes, also the root option. | 03:16 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: then ndiswrapper -i the bcmblah.inf file | 03:16 |
| D-Elite | Need help installing libssh 0.11 - http://pastebin.com/d44b90b61 | 03:16 |
| david_J | marnanel: You root gets mounted? | 03:16 |
| marnanel | david_J: Yes. | 03:16 |
| demonotaku | how can you install scripts in to gnome ubuntu | 03:16 |
| demonotaku | xchat i mean | 03:16 |
| david_J | marnanel: dmseg has no more output? | 03:16 |
| cflopez | it keeps saying driver already installed | 03:17 |
| cflopez | why cant it just die! | 03:17 |
| david_J | marnanel: mount the drive manually and see what happens? | 03:17 |
| david_J | marnanel: or partition oops | 03:17 |
| D-Elite | Need help installing libssh 0.11 - http://pastebin.com/d44b90b61 | 03:17 |
| marnanel | david_J: oh, good idea, let's see how that goes. | 03:17 |
| spydabyte | when i try and ssh with normal ip i get timed out | 03:17 |
| insllvn | achandrashekar, and pestilence thanks looking at mythbuntu now, and it looks like exactly what i am going for | 03:17 |
| cflopez | cant i just go to the add/remove and erase everything there? | 03:17 |
| marnanel | demonotaku: is "sudo apt-get install xchat" what you want? | 03:17 |
| david_J | marnanel: prolly just need to fsck it... | 03:17 |
| D-Elite | spydabyte, to what exactly? | 03:17 |
| demonotaku | no | 03:17 |
| demonotaku | i mean scripts in the xchat | 03:18 |
| * Budda| sighs | 03:18 |
| D-Elite | he means like tcl scripts | 03:18 |
| demonotaku | i got the xchat installed perfectly | 03:18 |
| D-Elite | demonotaku, check for tcl scripts on google. thats what i use. | 03:18 |
| spydabyte | D-Elite what ya mean ? | 03:18 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: do you need openssl installed? | 03:18 |
| pestilence | or openssl-dev | 03:18 |
| D-Elite | spydabyte, ssh to another box or to what? | 03:18 |
| spydabyte | other peopel from outside network being able to ssh into it is what i need | 03:19 |
| D-Elite | pestilence, nope. i need libssh 0.11 installed | 03:19 |
| Richard51684 | hey i'm running a program under wine and it's default setting is to be hide into the sys tray, however when i double-click the tray icon it won't open (it would in windows), is there a way to force the window to open? | 03:19 |
| spydabyte | i can ssh into it from my windows box ONLY using internal ip | 03:19 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: to rectify the error you are getting... | 03:19 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: it is complaining about lack of openssl headers | 03:19 |
| cflopez | ok ok finally removed! | 03:20 |
| Budda| | How do I uninstall wicd, and reinstall the default network monitor thing? | 03:20 |
| spydabyte | i can ping anything with te ubuntu box | 03:20 |
| D-Elite | pestilence, pretty sure i have openssl installed | 03:20 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: in particular, libssl-dev | 03:20 |
| spydabyte | so its gotta be seeing the outside world soemwhat | 03:20 |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: okay...now take it slow..from start... | 03:20 |
| === nilbus_ is now known as boo |
| achandrashekar | cflopez: thats what she said...lol | 03:21 |
| marnanel | david_J: strange: `mount /dev/sda3 /home` --> `/dev/sda3 already mounted or /home busy`. `umount /dev/sda3` --> `/dev/sda3: not mounted`. `mount /dev/sda3 /tmp/some-crappy-name-i-just-created` --> same as /home | 03:21 |
| spydabyte | is there anything in ssh config or sshd config that may need changing after installing it ? | 03:21 |
| dmb | ubotu: help | 03:21 |
| cflopez | i removed it using the front end gui for ndiswrapper but when i went looking for the files, they where still there | 03:21 |

| spydabyte | danc3: mind helping me with that ? | 03:21 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: configure seems to disagree with that assessment :-D | 03:22 |
| danc3 | notwen: how do we know, if you don't say what you need help with? | 03:22 |
| D-Elite | pestilence, looks as so, lol. | 03:22 |
| D-Elite | pestilence, let me reinstall it | 03:22 |
| marnanel | david_J: it is indeed not mounted | 03:22 |
| david_J | notwen: apt-get install build-essential | 03:22 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: what do you need help with? | 03:22 |
| Budda| | How do I uninstall wicd, and reinstall the default network monitor thing? | 03:22 |
| david_J | marnanel: man fuser or lsof | 03:22 |
| spydabyte | is there anything in ssh config or sshd config that may need changing after installing it ? u said yes .. im wondering what | 03:22 |
| supersoundguy | is there any way that I can get libstdc++.so.5 without an internet connection on my ubuntu machine? | 03:22 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: have you looked at the config files? | 03:23 |
| spydabyte | i have | 03:23 |
| marnanel | david_J: what am I looking for? I know how to use fuser and lsof; am I checking nobody has a lock on /dev/sda3? | 03:23 |
| JimmyDee | supersoundguy, download it on the box youre on NOW and put it on disk, sneakernet | 03:23 |
| jwd | supersound: jumpdrive | 03:23 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: and you don't see anything that needs changing? | 03:23 |
| D-Elite | pestilence, http://pastebin.com/d595e196d | 03:23 |
| D-Elite | pestilence, seems like its there | 03:23 |
| spydabyte | danc3: not surte what im looking for to be honest | 03:23 |
| david_J | marnanel: yeah basically.. then I'd try to fsck /dev/sda3 | 03:23 |
| jwd | any developers? | 03:23 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: you need libssl-dev, the development files. | 03:23 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: well, read them again, they're well commented | 03:23 |
| danc3 | we'll wait | 03:24 |
| marnanel | jwd: of what? | 03:24 |
| pestilence | D-Elite: how about just running apt-get build-dep libssh2 ? | 03:24 |
| jwd | anything | 03:24 |
| marnanel | jwd: plenty, what's up? | 03:24 |
| mudore | how can I find files containing "string" in a rep? | 03:24 |

| spydabyte | do i uncomment out listenadress : 0.0.0.0 and put 192.168.0.10 ip of the box ? | 03:24 |
| pestilence | that would bring in all the dependencies. | 03:24 |
| mudore | danc3, thx | 03:24 |
| spydabyte | thats only thing i could possibly see would be | 03:24 |
| JimmyDee | !patience | Budda| | 03:25 |

| JimmyDee | jwd, dave's not here, man | 03:25 |
| notwen | that fixed it David_j, thanks | 03:26 |
| pestilence | jwd: you should use vim. it is much nicer. | 03:26 |
| david_J | notwen: what I do? | 03:26 |
| co_xmp_cakep | hi | 03:26 |
| jwd | ya think | 03:26 |
| jwd | just alias vi to vim | 03:26 |
| jwd | and I'm good | 03:26 |
| marnanel | jwd: if you install vim it aliases vi to vim. this is true. | 03:27 |

| Budda| | How do I uninstall wicd, and reinstall the default network monitor thing? | 03:28 |
| spydabyte | i dunno im lost totaly | 03:28 |
| Eagle-101 | Budda|, open synaptic, search for wicd, tell it to uninstall, and then select the default one and tell that to install (I don't know what the default one is called) | 03:29 |
| RB2 | Just in the last 30 minutes or so, Evolution stopped loading. I get the "Starting Evolution" in the taskbar. Then, it disappears and nothing. I can see it running in the processes tho. Any suggestions? | 03:29 |

| goat|wor1 | what does the "&" mean in /usr/sbin/telnetd 2> /dev/null & | 03:30 |
| josiahw | Can someone help me with setting up partitions? I just need to know how big to make the / and the swap | 03:30 |
| jwd | run in background | 03:30 |
| pestilence | goat|wor1: it tells it to run in the background | 03:30 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: can u give me this telnet localhost 22 .. just to check if im connecting to your box | 03:30 |
| demonotaku | bingo got the script installed | 03:30 |
| goat|wor1 | thanks pestilence and jwd | 03:30 |
| jwd | no prob | 03:30 |
| dgoodma | anything for Linux that is similar to Quicken for Windows? | 03:30 |
| pestilence | dgoodma: gnucash | 03:30 |
| danc3 | dgoodma: moneydance | 03:31 |
| dgoodma | thanks | 03:31 |
| spydabyte | sunogbaga not even sure if telnet is installed there | 03:31 |
| spydabyte | i tried before and it didnt do anything | 03:31 |
| === slim_ is now known as BigSlim |
| josiahw | or just give me a link to some recommendations... i cant find anything on ubuntu.org | 03:31 |
| pestilence | dgoodma: gnucash has a pretty good tutorial on how to effectively use it on their website, if you are serious about managing your money | 03:31 |
| danc3 | howdy dpeach, welcome to the jungle | 03:31 |
| josiahw | ubuntu.com i mean | 03:31 |
| dpeach | thanks danc3 | 03:31 |
| danc3 | heh | 03:31 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: can u try it now? even on your windows box.. it gives you the ssh version before the prompt | 03:31 |
| yuaoki | I've got a motherboard on a Dell desktop with a yellow LED flashing and the power does not come on | 03:32 |
| danc3 | yuaoki: power supply is gone | 03:32 |
| Hubris2 | For the life of me, I can't figure out why a partition isn't mounting automatically. It's in my fstab.....can anyone offer some suggestions? | 03:32 |
| yuaoki | danc3- as in no more? | 03:32 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: i mean on your windows box, try to telnet host 22 | 03:32 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: does it say "noauto" in the fstab? | 03:32 |
| Hubris2 | pestilence: No | 03:32 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: what happens when you manually mount it? i.e. sudo mount /mountpoint | 03:32 |
| danc3 | yuaoki: as in "dead", it's a common indication on a Dell | 03:32 |
| Eagle-101 | josiahw, hint, I'd use google rather then searching ubuntu, if you want hints specific to ubuntu, make sure to add ubuntu linux to the end of your search string :) | 03:32 |
| Hubris2 | /dev/sda2/media/dataext3defaults,locale=en_US.utf801 | 03:33 |
| cflopez | same step, different story... i dumped the drivers in the home folder and i got this when i tried to install them couldn't open /home/charlie/home/charlie/bcmwl564.inf: No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper line 217. | 03:33 |
| === tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso |
| Hubris2 | I thought the 1 at the end of the line meant it was to mount automatically? | 03:33 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: no, that has to do with what time it is mounted. | 03:33 |
| daedric | Guys... do you think its normal to have a 3com marvell 940 ethernet chip onboard, knowing it is working... and lspci not even showing it? anyonw as had any issue similar to this ? | 03:33 |
| danc3 | Hubris2: nope | 03:34 |
| danc3 | pestilence: wrong | 03:34 |
| Hubris2 | pestilence: I want it mounted before I sign in.....what should I have? | 03:34 |
| danc3 | Hubris2: man mount, man fstab | 03:34 |
| danc3 | Hubris2: hint: "auto" | 03:35 |
| spydabyte | its obv a config problem with ssh itself has to be due to fact .. when i tried to use 6.016 or whatever it is .... it went onlien fine to get updates and upgrade | 03:35 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: well, it should be 2 if it's not your root partition. i think. | 03:35 |
| danc3 | pestilence: strike 2 | 03:35 |
| jimjam | !home | 03:36 |
| ubotu | Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 03:36 |
| Hubris2 | danc3: I will read the manpages....what I don't understand, is why other partitions in the fstab are mounting automatically (and don't have the word auto) but this is not | 03:36 |
| pestilence | danc3: boy oh boy you are helpful. | 03:36 |
| NeoPhyte21 | wow place is hoppin | 03:36 |
| danc3 | pestilence: yes, I am | 03:36 |
| Turnet | Can anyone please help me? | 03:36 |
| danc3 | pestilence: and the advice I give is correct, unlike yours | 03:36 |
| pestilence | danc3: from the man page: The sixth field, (fs_passno), is used by the fsck(8) program to determine the order in which filesystem checks are done at reboot time. | 03:36 |
| Flannel | spydabyte: You don't need to change anything in the sshd config, you just need to make sure your port forwarding properly | 03:36 |
| pestilence | danc3: well, at least i give it with a smile. | 03:36 |
| Turnet | Can anyone tell me what my localhost password is on Ubuntu? I'm trying to remove a printer from the list but it requires the password. Thank you. Also, I did not set one if that may help. :) | 03:36 |
| danc3 | pestilence: it has to do with dumping the file system, not mounting | 03:36 |
| linux88 | is anyone fairly familiar with VirtualBox? | 03:37 |
| spydabyte | great now i cant even ssh using internal up now .. connection refused | 03:37 |
| NeoPhyte21 | is there any way to remote desktop from a pc running windows into my machine at home running gutsy? | 03:37 |
| Turnet | Can anyone tell me what my localhost password is on Ubuntu? I'm trying to remove a printer from the list but it requires the password. Thank you. Also, I did not set one if that may help. :) | 03:37 |
| danc3 | Turnet: your login password | 03:37 |
| pestilence | danc3: he was referring to the sixth field. | 03:37 |
| pestilence | danc3: so, bzzz, you are wrong ;) | 03:37 |
| Turnet | danc3 my login password didn't work. :S | 03:37 |
| Flannel | spydabyte: revert whatever changes you've made to your sshd configurations. | 03:37 |
| spydabyte | sec | 03:37 |
| josiahw | is there a use in having /home anymore? or should it just all be under /? | 03:37 |
| Flannel | josiahw: Erm. There's every point in the world in having /home | 03:38 |
| Turnet | danc3 my login password didn't work. :s | 03:38 |
| scguy318 | josiahw: /home for your home stuff | 03:38 |
| Hubris2 | pestilence: Indeed, I was referring to the sixth field. According to the manpage, as you stated, it should be set to 2 for non-root | 03:38 |
| danc3 | Turnet: don't know then | 03:38 |
| Flannel | josiahw: Ah, you mean for a separate partition? Yeah, because it allows you to reinstall around it. | 03:38 |
| Turnet | Ok thanks anyone else? Can anyone tell me what my localhost password is on Ubuntu? I'm trying to remove a printer from the list but it requires the password. Thank you. Also, I did not set one if that may help. | 03:38 |
| pestilence | danc3: well, whaddaya know | 03:38 |
| danc3 | pffft | 03:38 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: so, what happens when you try to mount it manually? | 03:38 |
| josiahw | how large of a partition (if you had a lot of hard drive space) would you allocate for /? | 03:38 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: sudo mount /media/data ? | 03:39 |
| danc3 | josiahw: about 80% of it | 03:39 |
| josiahw | and then about 2gb of /swap and the rest in /home im guessing | 03:39 |
| wirechief | Turnet its your root password | 03:39 |
| Flannel | josiahw: 20GB will be more than you'll ever need. 10GB is more than liekly sufficient. | 03:39 |
| danc3 | Flannel: how do you know that? | 03:39 |
| NeoPhyte21 | anyone? | 03:39 |
| Flannel | danc3: Know what? | 03:39 |
| Turnet | I didn't set a root password wirechief. | 03:39 |
| Hubris2 | pestilence: It works just fine. I have configured a daemon to start with init.d that points at the mount point, so mounting manually is too late | 03:39 |
| danc3 | Flannel: that 10G is enough? | 03:39 |
| wirechief | Turnet well set one | 03:39 |
| josiahw | ok so 20gb into /, 2gb into swap, and 878gb of /home? | 03:39 |
| Flannel | danc3: Because you'd be hard pressed to fill 10GB with the stuff from the repos | 03:40 |
| danc3 | Flannel: my / partition is 200GB and it's getting full | 03:40 |
| Turnet | But I've heard it is dangerous to my system to set one. (I'm new to Ubuntu) :) | 03:40 |
| Flannel | josiahw: Unless you want a separate partition for /var or anything | 03:40 |
| spydabyte | wow i cant belive why this is so hard for me | 03:40 |
| josiahw | Flannel: dont think so | 03:40 |
| pestilence | Hubris2: hrmm.. then perhaps changing the 1 to a 2 will fix it. i can't explain why else it wouldn't mount. the default is "auto", so adding that after "defaults" isn't going to change anything (danc3, wanna tell me i'm wrong again?) | 03:40 |
| Flannel | danc3: And you must not have a separate home. | 03:40 |
| Flannel | josiahw: Well, you can always add one later if need be. | 03:40 |
| PMantis | Strangely, my laptop display blanks after 1 minute idle... but all preferences that I can find say about 11 minutes. Did I miss a setting? | 03:40 |
| wirechief | Turnet its dangerous if you use Ubuntu, but not any of the other distros so what does that tell you? | 03:40 |
| danc3 | Flannel: I do | 03:40 |
| knoppix | hhhhhhhhh | 03:41 |
| marnanel | Turnet: it is no more dangerous to set a root password in Ubuntu than in any other distro. | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | Bridge mode : Enable | 03:41 |
| Flannel | danc3: Then I can't say I believe you. What on earth is using the majority of that? Gotta be runaway logs or something. | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | NAT mode : Enable | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | Router mode : Enable | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | NAT Router mode : Enable | 03:41 |
| marnanel | Turnet: (also no less.) | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | CableHome 1.1 mode : Enable | 03:41 |
| Turnet | Why? | 03:41 |
| danc3 | Flannel: when you install most games for example, they go under /, and they are many GB's in size | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | right now its set as nat ... | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | should i change to be dif ? | 03:41 |
| Turnet | Oh I see what you mean. | 03:41 |
| marnanel | Turnet: Root passwords are really unnecessary these days. | 03:41 |
| knoppix | holas | 03:41 |
| Flannel | spydabyte: Just make sure your router is forwarding port 22 properly. | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | ok i can ssh back in using int ip | 03:41 |
| spydabyte | still dont help me tho | 03:42 |
| sunogbaga | !aptfix | 03:42 |
| danc3 | Flannel: nearly anything you install goes into /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin , both of which are under "/" | 03:42 |
| pestilence | Flannel: which is why it's a good idea to do 2 things. 1) use lvm. 2) have a /usr/local partition. | 03:42 |
| ubotu | If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » | 03:42 |
| cflopez | ugh... this wireless problem calls for bottles upon bottles of gin | 03:42 |
| spydabyte | i tried to dmz it Flannel and it still didnt work | 03:42 |
| Turnet | Marnanel, I wanted to remove a printer but it is asking for a localhost password. Isn't that the root password? | 03:42 |
| adorablepuppy | Speaking of which: What is the default password for the root account on postgresql 8.2? | 03:42 |
| pestilence | Flannel: or /usr | 03:42 |
| wirechief | marnanel he is trying to use the web based printer cupsys he needs root password | 03:42 |
| alitadeposca | hey ! | 03:42 |
| Flannel | danc3: I'm well aware of that. You'd still be hard pressed to fill 20GB | 03:42 |
| danc3 | Flannel: LOL | 03:42 |
| alitadeposca | need a little help | 03:42 |
| danc3 | wrong | 03:42 |
| Turnet | Yes, what wirechief said. :) | 03:42 |
| spydabyte | i filled my 5005 gig in 3 days :) | 03:42 |
| spydabyte | 500* | 03:42 |
| alitadeposca | looking for a wireless networking ubuntu channel... any ideas?? | 03:43 |
| danc3 | Flannel: do you play games like Quake4, Doom3, UT2004, etc? | 03:43 |
| marnanel | Turnet: ah, I have no idea about cupsys, but properly-written software should do something sudo-like these days | 03:43 |
| danc3 | Flannel: they're huge | 03:43 |
| wirechief | Turnet you have to decide if you want to set it. i know i do. but that is my thing. | 03:43 |
| alitadeposca | a wifi related channel... | 03:43 |
| Turnet | Ok I will set it I guess. | 03:43 |
| Turnet | How may I do that? | 03:43 |
| alitadeposca | for ubuntu... | 03:43 |
| alitadeposca | any ideas? | 03:43 |
| pestilence | alitadeposca: you have found it. | 03:43 |
| alitadeposca | excellent... | 03:43 |
| wirechief | Turner navigagte from system to user/groups | 03:44 |
| alitadeposca | pestilence:need a little help to get my audit toolkit set | 03:44 |
| Turnet | Ok | 03:44 |
| wirechief | Turner in there you will find a way to set it. | 03:44 |
| Flannel | spydabyte: There's nothing in the ssh configurations that'll stop it from working. Only router issues, or maybe the wrong IP. | 03:44 |
| adorablepuppy | I installed postgresql 8.2 because today at work I decided I liked it much more than mysql. However, I was never prompted for account preferences and my current login has no role created for it. Is there a generic account I can use to access it? | 03:44 |
| spydabyte | well danc3 and sunogbaga for trying to help me ... i think im a. explaining it wrong ... or noone is actually understanding what i mean .. sry to have taken up al lthe time u guys could have helped other but now im pissed, and now this has officially turned me away from unix so now im goign to stri pthe pos box and throw it where it belongs in dumpster | 03:45 |
| mudore | how can scan recursively a rep with grep for a string? | 03:45 |
| pestilence | !ask | alitadeposca | 03:45 |
| mudore | sample please | 03:45 |
| Turnet | Yes wirechief I got it! Thanks a lot for the help. :) | 03:45 |
| spydabyte | thanks* | 03:45 |
| alitadeposca | already got aircrack-ng pack running, but, since i'm trying to audit WPA2 networks i think i could something else... | 03:45 |
| spydabyte | ok FloodBot3 | 03:45 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: lol | 03:45 |
| spydabyte | erm | 03:45 |
| ubotu | alitadeposca: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 03:45 |
| wirechief | Turnet ok well good luck with your printer settings what printer are you using ? | 03:45 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: you're giving up that easily? | 03:45 |
| pestilence | wow, ubotu you are slow. | 03:45 |
| spydabyte | danc3 i been fighting this for 3 days | 03:45 |
| spydabyte | ive had maybe 5 hrs sleep | 03:45 |

| Flannel | !language | 03:46 |
| ubotu | Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 03:46 |
| mnemonica | lol | 03:46 |
| spydabyte | the only reason this is windows is casue its a loner till i get other one working | 03:46 |
| Turnet | Oh, did you experience the same problems as me? | 03:46 |
| MokonaSan | Hello, I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 and it is taking a really long time for the Partition Manager to come up. It went all the way to 100% on the "starting it up" dialog, but it is not going to the next screen. Is that normal? | 03:46 |
| adorablepuppy | !postgresql | 03:46 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about postgresql - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:46 |
| spydabyte | sry for language | 03:46 |
| * mnemonica hugs spydabyte | 03:46 |
| spydabyte | but im so agetaed right now | 03:46 |
| danc3 | agetaed? | 03:47 |
| pestilence | MokonaSan: do you meet the minimum required hardware? | 03:47 |
| Turnet | Wirechief, I tried my new root password for localhost, it still did not work. :( | 03:47 |
| spydabyte | see cant even spell | 03:47 |
| wirechief | Turnet i have reinstalled mine routinely now many times | 03:47 |
| spydabyte | its a word like very aggervated | 03:47 |
| spydabyte | bah | 03:47 |
| spydabyte | see | 03:47 |
| mnemonica | agitated? | 03:47 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: maybe that's what's wrong with your config files | 03:47 |
| pestilence | MokonaSan: i have had semi-older machines take forever to load the gutsy installer | 03:47 |
| sunogbaga | agitated | 03:47 |
| Turnet | Oh any reasons as to why? | 03:47 |
| wirechief | Turnet use user root and then passwd | 03:47 |
| spydabyte | danc3 i havent messed with no config files | 03:48 |
| MokonaSan | pestilence: let me look at the minimum reqs. I would think I meet them. | 03:48 |
| spydabyte | i dont dare afraid ill break it even worse | 03:48 |
| Turnet | Ok | 03:48 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: I thought you were editing the SSH config files | 03:48 |
| NeoPhyte21 | can anyone tell me why konsole's transparent background wouldn't work? | 03:48 |
| spydabyte | no u told me to take a look and figure it out | 03:48 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: what exactly is your problem, anyway? | 03:48 |
| spydabyte | i tried fiucked it up had to reset it | 03:48 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: cool down dude.. | 03:48 |
| spydabyte | poop | 03:48 |
| spydabyte | sry for language again | 03:48 |
| Turnet | Wirechief: It only asks for the password of localhost. I even tried 'root' but it didn't work. | 03:48 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: what isn't working for you? | 03:48 |
| spydabyte | ok danc3 ill try and explain this one more time best i can .... | 03:49 |
| danc3 | ok | 03:49 |
| alitadeposca | i'm trying to get started with wireless network audit. I've got backtrack 2, but i'd like ubuntu to do all that itself. Got aircrack-ng working on my 7.10, but since i'm looking forward to audit WPA2 i believe i could use both some other apps and tutorials, any suggestions? thanks. | 03:49 |
| ibanez | alitadeposca: www.google.com | 03:49 |
| ibanez | best i know of. | 03:49 |
| wirechief | Turnet im trying to get setup for pm | 03:49 |
| === wirechief is now known as wirechief4 |
| Turnet | wirechief, what's pm? | 03:50 |
| MokonaSan | it says it requires 256MB of RAM and I have 512, so I should be good on that | 03:50 |
| alitadeposca | ibanez: there's a lot of great stuff and a lot of junk around the web, any ubuntu specific apps/tutorials? | 03:50 |
| spydabyte | i can from this windows box ssh into ubuntu box ONLY by using 192.168.0.10, my buddy who lives in florida has tried to ssh in ...sometimes he gets nothing .. soemtimes he gets login puts in corect info but says password failed ....i try and use my real ip of 24.* and all i get is timed out ... | 03:50 |
| pestilence | MokonaSan: another possibility is corrupted media (i.e. bad cd). you could try running the media check | 03:50 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: are you behind a router? | 03:51 |
| spydabyte | i have used ie to get into my router and forward port 23 | 03:51 |
| ibanez | alitadeposca: im only familiar with the backtrack2 programs, im not sure about the ubuntu related mate, sorry :( | 03:51 |
| spydabyte | port 22 excuse me | 03:51 |
| spydabyte | both protocols | 03:51 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: is he using a valid login name? | 03:51 |
| MokonaSan | pestilence: i'll wait a little longer I guess. maybe it's just slow | 03:51 |
| spydabyte | yes | 03:51 |
| spydabyte | i even made one for him | 03:51 |
| pestilence | MokonaSan: sounds like a plan. | 03:51 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: it has to be a problem with the port forwarding | 03:52 |
| alitadeposca | ibanez:thanx anyway.... | 03:52 |
| danc3 | can you ssh in from the local LAN using his login name? | 03:52 |
| spydabyte | but i use ie to log into router and DMZ the host and still dont work | 03:52 |
| spydabyte | yes | 03:52 |
| ibanez | sorry i couldn't help more alitadeposca | 03:52 |
| danc3 | ok, then it MUST be a problem with port forwarding | 03:52 |
| pestilence | spydabyte: funny, i can ssh to your machine. | 03:52 |
| sunogbaga | spydabyte: i can too | 03:53 |
| pestilence | or, at least to the machine you are using irc from. | 03:53 |

| PMantis | What can cause my laptop screen to blank after ONE minute of use, when all settings I can find are set much higher? | 03:54 |
| mudore | can anyone paste a sample off how to scan recursively a rep ? | 03:54 |
| spydabyte | i dunno how much more i can open this port i mean if dmz dont open it then | 03:54 |
| danc3 | mudore: "scan recursively a rep"? What does that mean? | 03:55 |
| pestilence | PMantis: have you checked the settings in /etc/acpi/...? | 03:55 |
| danc3 | spydabyte: it doesn't need to be on a DMZ | 03:55 |
| mudore | can anyone paste a sample off how to scan recursively a dir ? like find all files contening a "str" | 03:55 |
| linuxuser | where can i find JVM V1.5 or greater | 03:55 |
