| lgc | erUSUL, Oh I see your point! Let me do that before I try and remove anything. | 00:06 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | xenthro: it displays errors whenever I go to resize the Vista partition | 00:07 |
| Oloughlin75 | r4wMUnt34q: Choose to set up the partitions. | 00:07 |

| erUSUL | ikonia: it can happen when you "cloned" as in !clone or when you upgrade using apt-get directly (not the update-manager) | 00:07 |

| Zylstra555 | nickrud: It alwayas gives me a server that does not actually have the package information on it | 00:15 |

| marginoferror | [PS2][061116]ネギま! 3時間目~恋と魔法と世界樹伝説!~.rar | 00:16 |

| Ganjistus | restricted drivers | 00:16 |
| marginoferror | Note that the two ! marks are different | 00:16 |
| Ste1 | *I tried | 00:16 |
| Ganjistus | then you can select it | 00:16 |
| ikonia | Ste1: do an apt-get update | 00:16 |
| Slart | marginoferror: ? | 00:16 |
| Ste1 | it said it needed nvidia-glx-new | 00:16 |
| Ste1 | and i have | 00:16 |
| Shpoo1 | Slart: yeah it is. Supposedly my host claims any files uploaded via FTP will obtain 755 permissions....but that doesn't seem to be the case. | 00:16 |
| nickrud | marginoferror, try rm [P<tab> (hit the tab key) unless you have already, of course | 00:17 |
| Ganjistus | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx new | 00:17 |
| svladcjelli | Ste1: system>administration>restricted driver manager | 00:17 |

| ikonia | Ste1: does apt-cache search nvidia turn up nvidia-glx-new ? | 00:17 |

| underdawg | I'm setting up rules for FIRESTARTER... what do i type if I want to enable a service along a whole ip range? i.e. 192.168.1.1-100? | 00:17 |
| marginoferror | nickrud: it's not an issue of indicating the file properly in the shell. It simply doesn't think the file is there. | 00:17 |
| marginoferror | Oh, the file is on FAT32 if that matters | 00:17 |
| marginoferror | It might | 00:17 |
| erUSUL | BB88: o_O!! i do not know what can be wrong... | 00:18 |
| Ganjistus | i hope the file isn't larger as 4gb | 00:18 |
| marginoferror | Err, scratch that. It is on NTFS with ntfs-fuse | 00:18 |
| nickrud | marginoferror, maybe for the exclamation points, do \! rather than just ! | 00:18 |
| Slart | underdawg: have you checked the manual for firestarter? | 00:18 |
| underdawg | yep | 00:18 |
| underdawg | it's ambiguous | 00:18 |
| mame | hey there I have an issue with a USB joystick. Anyone good with them? | 00:18 |
| BB88 | erUSUL: What is your encoder command line? | 00:18 |
| Shpoo1 | Slart: I'm editing the file directly off the server, so once I save it, it automatically updates on the server. I tried to go into the connection folder and change the permissions, but it doesn't let me. | 00:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BB88: What are you using to encode the mp3's and I assume you got lame encoder installed per the previous instructions | 00:18 |
| Slart | underdaws: are there documentation online? got an url? | 00:19 |
| marginoferror | nickrud: Nope, that doesn't work either. | 00:19 |
| Shpoo1 | Unfortunatley, without 755, or at least executable, permissions, I'm back at square one, lol | 00:19 |
| marginoferror | Is there any way to unlink a file specifically by its inode? | 00:19 |
| nickrud | marginoferror, have you tried putting it in quotes? (my last lame suggestion) | 00:19 |
| Ste1 | apt-cache does not find "nvidia-glx-new" | 00:19 |
| Slart | Shpoo1: hmm.. then I don't know.. if it was your server you could perhaps hack sometihng up.. but now I don't know | 00:19 |
| marginoferror | Not some permutation of find that passes the name to rm, but simply unlinking the inode. | 00:19 |
| BB88 | Jack_Sparrow: Yes I have lame installed, per the previous instructions. I am using grip. I can "rip" the file fine, as if it were a .wav file (around 32mb for a 3 minute track etc.), but when it comes to the encoding part, it just finishes and the file is around 2.0kb? | 00:19 |
| marginoferror | nickrud: yes. | 00:19 |
| ikonia | Ste1: Ste1 do you see restricted in your /etc/apt/sources.list | 00:20 |
| picard_pwns_kirk | xenthro: I can't resize a partition I'm using | 00:20 |

| Slart | underdawg: I did | 00:20 |

| gladeir | Jack_Sparrow the cd doesnt have a problem - it works if i take out the scsi controller. wheres there a list of boot options? ive played with all_gneric_ide and libata.atapi_enabled=1. | 00:20 |
| marginoferror | My graphical shell (Nautilus) can't delete, move or rename the file... but it can open it with file-roller and unpack it properly | 00:20 |
| marginoferror | It's bizarre | 00:20 |
| Shpoo1 | Slart: lol me neither, thanks though | 00:20 |
| erUSUL | BB88: -V1 --vbr-new %w %m (i changed it from the default -V1 is a quality setting so it will ignore the bitrate) | 00:21 |
| Ste1 | Ikonia: im not sure if im looking at the right place, but i cant find "restricted" | 00:21 |
| Shpoo1 | It's not gonna be any easier if I have to always go into my host to change the permissions | 00:21 |
| underdawg | Slart: see how basic it is? | 00:21 |
| BB88 | erUSUL: V1 as in VBR? I just want it to rip at 320 Kbps CBR, if possible :D | 00:21 |
| ikonia | Ste1: please go to "system --> Administration --> software sources" in the gui | 00:21 |
| robdig | marginoferror: are permissions ok? | 00:21 |
| underdawg | i guess i could ask it this way... if I want to make a policy in iptables for a service to open to a whole ip range, how do i do it? | 00:22 |
| Ste1 | ok | 00:22 |
| Slart | underdawg: yes.. doesn't look like you can do "ranges" from that short manual | 00:22 |
| erUSUL | BB88: then leave the command line as is | 00:22 |
| ikonia | underdawg: -source 192.168.1.0 | 00:22 |
| ikonia | underdawg: for example | 00:22 |
| marginoferror | robdig: Yes. | 00:22 |
| BB88 | That is where I am having the troubles, I am certain. | 00:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | gladeir: pci=noapci acpi=off noapic nolapic or all_generic_ide are the ones I have used | 00:22 |
| marginoferror | robdig: 600 and owned by me. | 00:22 |
| Slart | underdawg: iptables can do ranges.. with netmasks or start-end I think | 00:23 |
| underdawg | Slart: thanks for confirming | 00:23 |
| underdawg | all Firstarter is is a front end for iptables im sure | 00:23 |
| erUSUL | BB88: you can set the bitrate on the other tab (Options) | 00:23 |
| Slart | indeed | 00:23 |
| Ste1 | Ikonia: i figured it out, thank you very much | 00:23 |
| BB88 | I have done so. | 00:23 |
| ikonia | Ste1: no problem | 00:23 |
| ikonia | Ste1: welcome | 00:23 |
| nickrud | underdawg, shorewall is a middle ground between iptables and firestarter, you might like it's flexibility. | 00:23 |
| robdig | marginoferror: if its the only .rar file you have, then maybe something like rm `ls *.rar` if you have more .rar files, this will get them too | 00:24 |

| Jack_Sparrow | BB88: have you gone into config and set the encoder under config/encode/encoder | 00:24 |
| ikonia | TheZealot: program for what | 00:24 |
| gladeir | Jack_Sparrow ill go try them now ... brb (also have laptop to put together :P) | 00:24 |

| nickrud | underdawg, it's not a gui program, I should have mentioned | 00:24 |
| TheZealot | ikonia just a terminal... | 00:24 |
| xenthro | picard_pwns_kirk I don't use vista... but recovery partitions are extremely annoying and often screw with partitioning.. which is what happened with me. When i got my laptop I formatted the whole thing, all partitions, used the ubuntu cd to create 3 partitions, then installed windows in the first partition | 00:24 |
| underdawg | :( | 00:25 |
| BB88 | Yes "lame" "/usr/bin/lame" | 00:25 |

| SonicChao | !ask | 00:25 |

| picard_pwns_kirk | xenthro: should I just do that? | 00:25 |
| underdawg | nickrud: i suppose it has a man | 00:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BB88: not what I meant... in grip.... | 00:25 |
| marginoferror | robdig: Trust me, I've tried every permutation of that. The problem is with the filesystem recognition of the file, not my entering the name into the shell | 00:25 |
| nickrud | underdawg, it has a complete doc package, shorewall-doc | 00:25 |
| BB88 | Jack_Sparrow: As in Config >> Encode >> Encoder ? | 00:25 |

| bcnl | that's what I thought | 00:56 |

| underdawg | !iptables | 00:57 |
| 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). | 00:57 |
| bcnl | svladcjelli: I've done it at least 6 times | 00:57 |
| bcnl | is there no way I can determine the device node/number from the dmesg output? | 00:57 |
| ikonia | bcnl: is udevd running? | 00:57 |
| Dassouki | svladcjelli, ya it aborted it wiht that error "errno5 input/output" but i tried different versions, and even ani386 cd, i even burnt the cd at smaller and faster speeds.. no dice | 00:57 |

| bcnl | I'll put it back in the high speed port | 00:58 |
| buck1 | hey guys, my taskbar just crashed, how do I recover it? | 00:58 |
| Dassouki | svladcjelli, could it possible be, i just got hte computer by mail yesterday | 00:58 |
| ikonia | bcnl: udevd isn't running, thats the problem | 00:58 |
| ikonia | bcnl: your not getting a plugin event | 00:59 |
| svladcjelli | Dassouki: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3914868 | 00:59 |
| svladcjelli | Dassouki: you need to manually partition it seems | 00:59 |
| svladcjelli | or cd is bad | 00:59 |
| jqubuntu | If I have the original ubuntu cd and a copy that won't boot, if I put the one that can boot in and then switch to the one that wouldn't boot will it install from that? | 01:00 |

| svladcjelli | you may want to reboot ;) | 01:01 |
| josiahw_ | does it make any difference when encoding a divx from dvd to do a second pass through? | 01:01 |
| bcnl | ikonia: is it ok to just run udevd from the commandline? | 01:01 |
| josiahw_ | or even a first | 01:01 |

| Wing | Uh. Wasn't there a zsnes gutsy package a few weeks ago? | 01:02 |
| kbrooks | jqubuntu, if you can (please be patient), do not switch the cd when you see the "ubuntu" splash screen with the progress bar. switch the cd when you see "ubuntu" after the computer reads from the cd | 01:02 |
| Wing | I swear I installed it on a friend's system. | 01:02 |
| esp177 | josiahw: secound pass makes the video better, but it tqakes longer.... | 01:02 |

| erUSUL | Wing: there is | 01:02 |
| Wing | Oh yeah. | 01:02 |
| josiahw_ | esp177: what does it do? why does it make the video better? | 01:02 |
| jqubuntu | kbrooks: like when you see the screen where you choose what you want it to do? | 01:02 |
| Wing | i386. | 01:02 |
| Wing | Right | 01:02 |
| Shpoo1 | I'm not used to the switch to Ubuntu from Windows yet...I haven't had to reformat in almost 6 months. | 01:02 |
| bcnl | ikonia: thank you | 01:02 |
| Wing | I forgot I was 64bit. | 01:03 |
| kbrooks | jqubuntu, yes | 01:03 |
| josiahw_ | esp177: its taking like 2 hours each dvd | 01:03 |
| bcnl | now I need to see why udevd is not running from init | 01:03 |
| jqubuntu | kbrooks: ok cool thanks | 01:03 |
| ikonia | bcnl: no problem....remember me at christmas | 01:03 |
| bcnl | but this thing rarely gets touched | 01:03 |
| bcnl | ikonia: are you in Canada? | 01:03 |
| warriorforgod | I am having problems installing the nvidia beta driver. The installer-log file is located at http://rafb.net/p/rcZ6eh88.htm Any suggestions? | 01:03 |
| kbrooks | jqubuntu, might want to press a key | 01:03 |
| ikonia | bcnl: I'll put money due to a hal issue or dbus error | 01:03 |
| kbrooks | jqubuntu, when you see that screen | 01:03 |
| ikonia | bcnl: no, uk | 01:03 |
| svladcjelli | warriorforgod: Not Found | 01:03 |
| kbrooks | jqubuntu, so that the timeout does not kick in | 01:03 |
| esp177 | josiahw: it colects statistical information for the actial encoding, it dont take 2x the time of 1 pass | 01:03 |
| bcnl | ikonia: do you like hydroponics? | 01:03 |
| jqubuntu | kbrooks: ok will do | 01:03 |

| bucky100 | hey guys, my taskbar crashed, how can I recover it? | 01:05 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mikefoo, i also would recommend a quick Xampp program | 01:05 |
| svladcjelli | mikefoo: tasksel in the terminal may be something to look at as well | 01:05 |
| mikefoo | Xampp? | 01:05 |
| josiahw_ | warriorforgod: You should run the Envy script: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 01:05 |
| mikefoo | taskel? | 01:05 |
| mikefoo | what is this, hah | 01:05 |
| josiahw_ | warriorforgod: does everything for you :) | 01:05 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mikefoo, while xampp is not part of ubuntu its nice if you want ftp mysql and apache and php and more all setup in one | 01:05 |
| tongueroo | on a filesystem, how many files can you go up to before performance takes a substantial hit? | 01:05 |
| ikonia | mikefoo: just use synaptic i the desktop | 01:05 |
| apocn | I want to connect to an L2TP/IPSec VPN server and I havent found no documentation on how to do it, any help? | 01:06 |
| tongueroo | not sure what the filesystem is.. its gentoo instasll | 01:06 |
| warriorforgod | josiahw_: Tried that and it failed as well. | 01:06 |
| kierov | dispcurrsong | 01:06 |
| ikonia | tongueroo: lots of variables that can effect it | 01:06 |
| ikonia | tongueroo: this is ubuntu support not gentoo support | 01:06 |
| josiahw_ | warriorforgod: oh... well no other suggestions from me then.. sorry man | 01:06 |

| ikonia | oops | 01:07 |
| Shpoo1 | Okay, I'm editing HTML, CSS, and JS files in bluefish, and would like to save directly to a FTP folder. I've achieved this, but now when I save the file, it changes the permissions on the host to 660, when they have to be 755. The host claims that all files uploaded via FTP are set to 755. Is this something that can be remedied through Ubuntu, or does it sound like a problem with my web host? | 01:07 |
| Sweet-P | what file would I edit to change my ubuntu system from gnome to xfce if I can't be at the console? | 01:07 |
| underdawg | how do you restart iptables back to original spec (like it is aftrer install?) | 01:07 |
| warriorforgod | svladcjelli: Here is the log file http://rafb.net/p/rcZ6eh88.html | 01:07 |
| underdawg | i kepe getting a connection refused on my ssh attempts | 01:07 |
| ikonia | Shpoo1: your webhost needs to set the umask on the ftp server | 01:07 |
| ikonia | underdawg: is sshd running on the server ? | 01:07 |
| ikonia | underdawg: iptables -FX | 01:08 |
| kbrooks | Shpoo1, tell the webhost to set the umask to 022 | 01:08 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Shpool hmm do you have ssh access to your host? you can possibly change the config in your ftp server if so | 01:08 |
| soldats | Sweet-P, gotta downsload xfce | 01:08 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | underdawg: are you asking for the default config files? | 01:08 |
| Shpoo1 | ikonia, well, I don't see that happening...they're not very helpful with anything. Looks like it'll be back to the upload page until I can switch. I'll try and talk to them, but I'm sure this is gonna be the straw that broke the horses back. | 01:09 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Shpool whos the host company | 01:09 |
| Shpoo1 | Awardspace | 01:10 |
| bucky100 | how do you recover the taskbar after it crashes? | 01:10 |
| apocn_ | Hello, I want to connect to a L2TP/IPSec VPN server, does anyone know how to do it? or maybe to point me some vpn client? | 01:10 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Shpool never heard of them? is it possible you can just change the settings through a control panel on thier site? | 01:11 |
| ckin2001 | apocn_, the plugins for network manager work very well for all the vpns i need to connect to | 01:11 |
| booh | When I insert CD or DVD a window open asking me if I want to burn... but when I insert DVD+R DL, nothing open and I can't burn, I have an error: There was an error writing to the disc: Unhandled error, aborting (I'm on gutsy AMD 64bits) | 01:11 |

| apocn_ | ckin2001: did you have to install something additionally? | 01:12 |
| Sweet_P | got disconnected | 01:12 |
| apocn_ | im using ubuntu 7.10 | 01:12 |
| Shpoo1 | jason: I've been looking, but the only FTP setting I can change is my password. the CP is horrible, and they don't allow for customization of much. I can't even find where to change file permissions. | 01:12 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | can i post a link ? | 01:12 |
| Sweet_P | is there a way to switch sessions from gnome to xfce from CLI? | 01:12 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | apocn_, http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-configure-ubuntu-fedora-linux-pptp-client.html for the vpn connection try this? | 01:12 |
| ckin2001 | apocn_, yes, there were plugins i installed. check network manager packages in synaptic | 01:12 |
| apocn_ | ckin2001: ok, thanks | 01:13 |
| apocn_ | jason_ubuntuislo: thanks | 01:13 |
| fourier__ | hi everyone i had an ssh question:can i overide openssh host authentication ?(i have already read the manual page and googled quite a bit...) | 01:13 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | apocn_ your welcome | 01:13 |
| ivan | is spamassassin the prefered solution for multiuser filtering? | 01:14 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, do you mean use ssh without passwords? yes if so | 01:14 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | ivan, it uses heavy cpu | 01:14 |
| Shpoo1 | bucky100: hit Alt-F2, and type in "gnome-panel" | 01:14 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | ivan, i use google enterprise for mail and they filter all spam and its free? how can one go wrong | 01:14 |
| ivan | jason_ubuntuislo: i've got 4, so cpu isn't a prob, but false positives are | 01:14 |
| hdevalence | I'm writing a letter to my MP. what's a good description of opensource/freesoftware that's persuasive but not technical? | 01:14 |
| ivan | i can't outsource to google | 01:14 |
| TheZealot | how do I switch between channels in weechat? | 01:15 |
| fourier__ | now i mean avoid this:"The authenticity of host '127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1)' can't be established. | 01:15 |
| fourier__ | RSA key fingerprint is c6:4f:6c:99:be:7d:37:41:bb:e0:c1:ae:ac:4d:99:11. | 01:15 |
| fourier__ | Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? " | 01:15 |
| ivan | stop generating new ssh server keys? | 01:15 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, use pastebin.org to post or u flood the channel | 01:15 |
| fourier__ | sorry | 01:15 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, that only comes up once though | 01:15 |
| ckin2001 | fourier__, you add the key to your known keys in the .ssh directory in your /home | 01:15 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, the ssh client adds to known hosts file under .ssh under your home directory | 01:16 |
| lockd | hdevalence: low cost? | 01:16 |
| SonicChao | !pastebin > fourier__ | 01:16 |

| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, wow thats beyond what i was thinking you were doing? | 01:17 |
| svladcjelli | fourier__: http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1806 | 01:17 |
| svladcjelli | tells you how to disable strict checking etc | 01:18 |
| hdevalence | it's about drm circumvention | 01:18 |
| fourier__ | thanks | 01:18 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | svladcjelli, nice | 01:18 |
| svladcjelli | but that renders ssh basically insecure | 01:18 |
| booh | When I insert CD or DVD a window open asking me if I want to burn... but when I insert DVD+R DL, nothing open and I can't burn, I have an error: There was an error writing to the disc: Unhandled error, aborting (I'm on gutsy AMD 64bits) | 01:18 |
| fourier__ | i know butt its suposed to work on live cds in safe lans.. | 01:18 |
| svladcjelli | or alot less secure.. just understand what you are doing if it is a public machine | 01:19 |
| TheZealot | Anyone know how I can switch between open channels in WeeChat? | 01:19 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, what is a mpi farm? | 01:19 |
| xzased | Hiya boys. Anyone knows how to adjust the brightness on a laptop? Im using xubuntu | 01:19 |
| JordiGH | I think I've asked before, but I've forgotten. Is there a way to have a Windows user easily (easily relative to most of Windows) and securely encrypt some files and send them to me in such a way that I can decrypt them with the software available in Ubuntu? | 01:19 |
| JordiGH | Assume that we have a perfectly secure medium to exchange a small amount of information (e.g. a password) | 01:19 |
| svladcjelli | JordiGH: look into gpg | 01:19 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xzased, cant you use the buttons on the keyboard? or are you on battery power? | 01:19 |
| fourier__ | i might soun catshy but its the most common way off parellel computing.... | 01:19 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, cool | 01:19 |
| hdevalence | xzased: try looking in the power manager. should be a little power icon down somewhere | 01:19 |
| lockd | hdevalence: well, DVD for instance must use DRM circumvention on Linux (and probably others), or you simply can't play it | 01:19 |

| xzased | Ok, let me try both suggestions. Thanks :) | 01:20 |
| SonicChao | TheZealot, Weechat? | 01:20 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xzased, i know on my laptop i have an FN key which ubuntu doesnt play well it could be the same What is your laptop model? | 01:20 |
| TheZealot | !info weechat | 01:20 |
| hdevalence | the gov.t is about to be evil | 01:20 |
| svladcjelli | Dassouki: check/repair? | 01:20 |

| simplechat | JordiGH, that is not secure. nowhere near secure. You can do it with scp and gpg. | 01:20 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | hdevalence, what is gov.t | 01:20 |
| simplechat | but it isn't what you want to do | 01:20 |
| svladcjelli | Dassouki: I would use fdisk be4hand and then just choose the right partitions in installer | 01:20 |
| hdevalence | government | 01:21 |
| svladcjelli | for encryption of files, gpg, for email, enigmail | 01:21 |
| svladcjelli | and everyone should use it as much as possible | 01:21 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Dassouki, I use gpart live cd | 01:21 |
| hdevalence | Canada's getting a new copyright law. AKA conservative government sells out to **AA | 01:21 |
| xzased | its a toshiba a105 | 01:21 |
| fourier__ | i might be using the terms wrong... what i meant is a live cd tha will provide mpi capabilities for all pcs booted in the same cd in a particular lan.... | 01:21 |
| xzased | with the fn key | 01:21 |
| hdevalence | so I'm writing a letter | 01:21 |
| TheZealot | +1 | 01:21 |
| fourier__ | if it works well i ll post something... | 01:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dassouki: i'd secoind usi9ng the gparted Lifve CD.. I've had nohting but probs out of Gparted and Gutsy(although I have gotten QTparted to work) | 01:22 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | fourier__, cool thanks | 01:22 |
| hdevalence | and I'm talking about legitamate uses for DRM-circumvention | 01:22 |
| ari_stress | morning all | 01:22 |
| JordiGH | Jack_Sparrow, simplechat, svladcjelli: Is there a simple interface for gpg from Windows I can use? And oh, the exchange of actual information will happen over sneakernet, because it's too large to fit over internet. | 01:22 |
| hdevalence | so f-oss is kinda tangential. | 01:22 |
| Dassouki | jason_ubuntuislo, yaa . svladcjelli, ya i will try that i was tryign to take the easy way out IndyGunFreak i'll try that right now actually, that soudns great ... | 01:22 |

| DG19075 | I've just used the Ubuntu i386 DVD.iso here with no probs | 01:23 |
| Ryuki | I have a question | 01:23 |
| SonicChao | hdevalence, there are illegitimate uses? ;D | 01:23 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki what is it? | 01:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | !ask | Ryuki | 01:23 |
| ubotu | Ryuki: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 01:23 |
| kitche | Ryuki: well we have no anwser unless of course you ask your question | 01:23 |
| * IndyGunFreak reads Ryuki 's mind.. | 01:24 |
| hdevalence | so i don't want to go into way detail about why f/oss is good, but i don't want them to be 'why use vlc when you could use wmp? it's free after all...' | 01:24 |
| hdevalence | etc.. | 01:24 |
| JordiGH | simplechat: One thing I don't understand. gpg4win seems to be for encryping emails. Can I easily encrypt and decrypt individual files? Like I said, the actual exchange will be over sneakernet. | 01:24 |
| Ryuki | ok. I had a problem, I know this is not related to Ubuntu, but I used Damn Small Linux and I have a unmountable drive, how do I fix it? I have Ubuntu Live CDs. | 01:24 |
| jimmious | how can I make my x1900xt card work well in ubuntu? currently im using vesa drivers and have only 800x600 resolution | 01:24 |
| lockd | hdevalence: chances are this letter will not be read at all | 01:24 |
| xLE | !readline | 01:24 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about readline - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:24 |
| xzased | hmm .where is the power management? | 01:24 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki cant you use mount command | 01:25 |
| hdevalence | lockd: actually, it's a letter to my MP, so i think there's a good chance | 01:25 |
| Ryuki | tried that. | 01:25 |
| Ryuki | wait. | 01:25 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, what are you needing for readline? | 01:25 |
| SonicChao | IndyGunFreak, error: /ryuki/mind not found | 01:25 |
| SonicChao | ;D | 01:25 |
| Ryuki | what is the default name for a harddrive? | 01:25 |
| hdevalence | lockd: if it were a letter to the prime minister , yeah | 01:25 |
| xLE | libreadline.so.4 | 01:25 |
| sunogbaga | Ryuki: fdisk -l | 01:25 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki yes use fdisk -l | 01:26 |
| Ryuki | I can try. | 01:26 |
| Ryuki | wait | 01:26 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE | 01:26 |
| Ryuki | I forgot to tell you. | 01:26 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE one sec | 01:26 |
| Ryuki | it won't let me boot in Linux | 01:26 |
| Ryuki | what should I do? | 01:26 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, i haven't touched windows in years, so thats just something i remembered using. you could try pgp possibly, if your just doing an encrypted data store. | 01:26 |
| xLE | okay. | 01:26 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki thats many possibilites for that? | 01:26 |
| sunogbaga | Ryuki: youre sure you don't have a bad harddrive? | 01:26 |
| Ryuki | It's old and it failed lol | 01:27 |
| Ryuki | but It still works | 01:27 |
| Ryuki | I installed it | 01:27 |
| Ryuki | and it works | 01:27 |
| SonicChao | Ryuki, #damnsmalllinux | 01:27 |
| Ryuki | but I knew I need a new harddrive because it had bad sectors. | 01:27 |
| Pici | Ryuki: Are you running DSL right now? | 01:27 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, try searching for libreadline* | 01:28 |
| Ryuki | No. | 01:28 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | sudo aptitude search libread* | 01:28 |
| xLE | i have installed that package. | 01:28 |
| xLE | how do I remove a package? | 01:28 |
| Ryuki | I am using the other computer that have Windows XP home Edition, it sucked. | 01:28 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, sudo apt-get remove | 01:28 |
| JordiGH | simplechat: gpg can interact with gpg, right? | 01:28 |
| JordiGH | Er, with pgp, right? | 01:28 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, then specify the name of the package | 01:28 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, does that help? | 01:29 |
| Ryuki | But I tried Ubuntu and loved it. | 01:29 |
| Ryuki | but I need a better computer for it. | 01:29 |
| Pici | Ryuki: I'm trying to say that this is the Ubuntu support channel and we can't help you with DSL. | 01:29 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki, are you trying better resources try xubuntu | 01:29 |
| Ryuki | I know. | 01:29 |
| Neodudeman | hullo ubuntu; I have a question: is there anyway I can access the network manager or the GDM manager from a terminal? I just recently got fluxbox, and now can't get back to gnome because the GDM theme i got doesn't have a session changer, for some reason. | 01:29 |
| Ryuki | sorry. | 01:29 |
| xzased | Found the answer for brightness: xgamma -gamma x.x | 01:29 |
| vtheree | anyone able to answer a quick question | 01:29 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, i don't know, google? what exactly do you need to do. are you encrypting for transit? or what? | 01:29 |
| xLE | i'll remove a 64bit package, and install a different one and try that. | 01:29 |
| Ryuki | Hm. | 01:29 |
| Ryuki | okay. | 01:29 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Neodudeman, try NetworkManager | 01:29 |
| qwaz | can multiple cron jobs be scheduled for the exact same time? | 01:30 |
| micah | need to get flash player installed | 01:30 |
| Ryuki | But how do I burn Xubuntu in correct way? | 01:30 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Neodudeman, that will start the network manager program | 01:30 |
| kitche | Neodudeman: it probably uses xdm just sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm | 01:30 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, good luck | 01:30 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki, what do you mean? burn a specific way??? | 01:30 |
| Ryuki | I burned Xubuntu in all different speed | 01:30 |
| Ryuki | it won't work | 01:31 |
| Ryuki | I think I did something wrong. | 01:31 |
| TheZealot | [splith] | 01:31 |
| Neodudeman | @jason_ubuntuislo: doh. I didn't capitalize the N or M when i tried that command before. lol thanks | 01:31 |
| qwaz | can multiple cron jobs be scheduled for the exact same time? | 01:31 |

| mikefoo | mneptok: doing that only didn't get mine working I have to download from adobe also! | 01:32 |
| kantlivelong | does it work on normal useR | 01:32 |
| kantlivelong | ? | 01:32 |
| kitche | mneptok: yeah read the topic :) | 01:32 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kandinski, it comes with ubuntu | 01:32 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kandinski, but try sudo before running command | 01:32 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, how big, roughtly? | 01:33 |
| sunogbaga | mneptok: last time i checked this package is broken,, flashplugin-nonfree i mean | 01:33 |
| JordiGH | simplechat: several gigs of homemade pr0n. | 01:33 |
| mneptok | ugh ... what MOTU broke it. grrrr | 01:33 |
| mikefoo | sunogbaga: it is | 01:33 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | micah, ive gotten rid of 64bit its not faster its much slower on my laptop and too many issues for programs for me | 01:33 |
| kitche | mneptok: adobe broke it :) they changed the tar package | 01:33 |
| sunogbaga | mikefoo: thnx | 01:33 |
| mneptok | micah: there is no Flash 9 for x86-64 | 01:33 |
| Ryuki | <jason_ubuntuislo> Ryuki really interesting ive never run into that problem? is it possible you can try it on a windows box <-- what wwindows box? | 01:34 |
| micah | can i run the 32 bit version on my comp | 01:34 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, ah. nice. uh, use winrar to make one large archive and use its inbuilt password protection with a large strong password | 01:34 |
| Ryuki | you mean here? | 01:34 |
| kantlivelong | lspci isnt working | 01:34 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki lol well i assumed you had access? | 01:34 |
| kitche | !flash64 | micah this should tell you | 01:34 |
| ubotu | micah this should tell you: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 01:34 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | micah, sure you can | 01:34 |
| simplechat | (well, make one archive, then make a passworded archive of that archive.) | 01:34 |
| Ryuki | how? | 01:34 |
| JordiGH | simplechat: And can I unrar with Ubuntu's free unrar? | 01:34 |
| kitche | micah: should even tell you how to install it from adobe site as well if you wanted | 01:34 |
| Ryuki | you say windows box | 01:34 |
| Ryuki | which one? | 01:34 |
| matthew4 | hi, i | 01:34 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, winzip's pswd protection is broken, winrars is still strong, iirc. | 01:34 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, yeah | 01:34 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, just give us a torrent? :) | 01:34 |
| micah | ok brb | 01:35 |
| JordiGH | simplechat: You wish. That's why I want encryption in the first place. ;-) | 01:35 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki no i meant your box to burn it at home? how are you burning it with what program | 01:35 |
| matthew4 | how do you create a ssh alias? so that instead of typing ssh user@host everytime i can just type ssh desktop | 01:35 |
| simplechat | JordiGH, lol, kk :) | 01:35 |
| Ryuki | I tried Nero, MagiccISO | 01:35 |
| Ryuki | all burning programs | 01:35 |
| Ryuki | they don't do what I want. | 01:35 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, you can set in /etc/hosts | 01:35 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki, arent they windows programs? | 01:36 |
| Ryuki | Yes. | 01:36 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: on which computer? | 01:36 |
| mneptok | Ryuki: did you md5sum the .iso you downloaded? | 01:36 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki, on windows i used imageburn | 01:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Ryuki: isorecorder freeware for windows | 01:36 |
| Ryuki | Umm.. no? | 01:36 |
| mneptok | matthew4: use a shell alias | 01:36 |
| Ryuki | But I will when I build my own new computer | 01:36 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki yes imageburn checks and verifies after burn but so does nero too | 01:36 |
| Ryuki | cool. | 01:36 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, yours | 01:37 |
| JordiGH | simplechat: Kay, thanks for the idea. | 01:37 |
| Ryuki | ok | 01:37 |
| kitche | mneptok: will ssh support alias or do you mean just alias ssh user@host so he just has to type desktop? | 01:37 |
| Ryuki | Now I have to find a good ISO | 01:37 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, you use like this command sudo gedit /etc/hosts | 01:37 |
| LimCore | which FS rulez for flash? | 01:37 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki did you use bittorrent | 01:37 |
| mneptok | kitche: alias desktop='ssh user@host' | 01:37 |
| Ryuki | yes | 01:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jason_ubuntuislo: gksudo for gui apps// please | 01:37 |
| Ryuki | utorrent is best | 01:37 |
| Ryuki | :) | 01:37 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Ryuki i had issue on that when downloading i got bad burned iso's too | 01:38 |
| Ryuki | AH! | 01:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jason_ubuntuislo: sudo for apps like gedit will come back to bite you | 01:38 |
| etfb | Ryuki: did you get uTorrent working in Ubuntu? | 01:38 |
| kitche | mneptok: yeah I was thinking of that to but alas I don't know bash that much :) | 01:38 |
| Ryuki | the garbe code thingy on your screen? | 01:38 |
| * Ryuki shrugs | 01:38 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Jack_Sparrow, i figured he would like it easier then vim | 01:38 |
| mneptok | kitche: neither do i. i use zsh. it's 2007, after all. ;) | 01:38 |
| Ryuki | garbage* | 01:38 |
| Ryuki | I need xubuntu ISO | 01:38 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Jack_Sparrow, ohh you mean for permissions yes | 01:38 |
| * nickrud sniffs at youth | 01:38 |
| micah | didnt work | 01:38 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, use gksudo gedit /etc/hosts and add your host there | 01:39 |
| micah | kept going right back to desktop | 01:39 |
| warriorforgod | I am having trouble installing the nvidia beta driver. Log file is located at http://rafb.net/p/rcZ6eh88.html Any help is appreciated. | 01:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jason_ubuntuislo: <jason_ubuntuislo> matthew4, you use like this command sudo gedit /etc/hosts is a bad suggestion | 01:39 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: sudo cannot be used mith GUI appsd | 01:39 |
| mneptok | -d | 01:39 |
| matthew4 | how do you use /etc/hosts ? i can' | 01:39 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, yes my bad | 01:39 |
| mneptok | matthew4: use a shell alias | 01:39 |
| matthew4 | i can't find any examples that uses the @ symbol | 01:39 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, i use vi | 01:39 |
| mneptok | matthew4: do NOT ediut /etc/hosts | 01:39 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: don't want to do it that way | 01:39 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, we use /etc/hosts for at work then you can add many hosts names | 01:40 |
| mneptok | matthew4: editing /etc/hosts is not the best approach | 01:40 |
| hvgotcodes | hi how do i remove all packages installed from a particular repo? | 01:40 |
| Ryuki | I'm searching the torrent for Xubuntu now. | 01:40 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: trust me, i know what /etc/hosts does ;) | 01:40 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, yes i can help you edit it though | 01:40 |
| etfb | menptok: what do you suggest instead? | 01:40 |
| mneptok | etfb: a shell alias | 01:40 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: ok, give me a recommendation that doesn't involve shell aliases. i want this to be universal. | 01:40 |
| Ryuki | found it | 01:40 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, mneptok is right shell alias is better since most users only need one alias | 01:41 |
| mneptok | matthew4: "universal?" | 01:41 |
| etfb | mneptok: ah, I came into this conversation late; I guess your answer doesn't apply to the thing I was thinking of. Never mind | 01:41 |
| mneptok | matthew4: what does that mean? | 01:41 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, well what is it shell alias wont do for you?> | 01:41 |
| nickrud | hvgotcodes, in sytem-admin-synaptic, press the origin button | 01:41 |
| mneptok | matthew4: you want it to work for all users on the system? | 01:41 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: meaning a file that belongs to ssh, not a file that is dependent on which shell I happen to be using at the time | 01:41 |
| CokeNCode | ok, i just plugged in a new logitech mouse, how do i get ubuntu to recognise the buttons correctly | 01:42 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, if your comfortable you can look at "man hosts" | 01:42 |
| lgc | ikonia, the problem with the SMP issue is solved now, thanks. But there's another issue with googleearth. According to apt-get it is installed, but there's no entry on the menu and it won't start from the CLI either. Any ideas? Thanks. | 01:42 |
| CokeNCode | basically reinstall the mouse | 01:42 |
| CokeNCode | need some help here | 01:42 |
| dor0 | hello guys, i have ubuntu installed, any way to get KDE working instead gnome without install kubuntu? | 01:42 |
| etfb | CokeNCode: I generally have no trouble just plugging in mice. What are your symptoms? | 01:42 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | dor0, you can install kde-desktop | 01:42 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: done it, they give no examples that includes the user@host which is how i SSH in | 01:42 |
| nickrud | dor0, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 01:42 |
| etfb | dor0: install the kde-desktop package, but it can be flakey at times | 01:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dor0: just install the other wm... | 01:43 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, you can create a bash file? | 01:43 |
| BB88 | I have 7Zip installed, but how can I run it? | 01:43 |
| kitche | matthew4: umm then you are stuck using /etc/hosts and you don't put user@host in the hosts file at all you put ip then host but myself I just use shell scripts :) | 01:43 |
| mneptok | matthew4: sudo echo alias desktop='ssh user@desktop' >> /etc/profile | 01:43 |
| Ryuki | downloading the torrent | 01:43 |
| Ryuki | :) | 01:43 |
| mneptok | matthew4: there you go | 01:43 |
| dor0 | and how to tell ubuntu to load my KDE desktop at boot instead gnome? | 01:43 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, what is it your trying to do? | 01:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | dor0: under sessions when you login | 01:44 |
| nickrud | dor0, choose it under options -> sessions on login | 01:44 |
| etfb | dor0: there's a session menu that defaults to your last choice | 01:44 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | dor0, once kde is installed the main screen at GDM you have an option to change session | 01:44 |
| * jason_ubuntuislo holy cow look at the support on this channel | 01:44 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: not the approach i was looking for, thanks anyways | 01:44 |
| dor0 | nice thanks | 01:44 |
| ubuntu_ | need help with gparted | 01:44 |

| jason_ubuntuislo | ubotu, whats wrong? please explain? | 01:44 |
| === eljo__ is now known as eljo |
| mneptok | matthew4: that's the approach that is recommended. editing your hosts file is not. | 01:45 |
| CokeNCode | well, it's a roller ball kinda thing actually | 01:45 |
| hvgotcodes | nickrud: to confirm what i am seeing, for the origin i am seeing all packages, installed and not installed? | 01:45 |
| CokeNCode | where u move the ball with ur thumb | 01:45 |
| CokeNCode | gladier, any suggestions ? | 01:45 |
| kitche | jason_ubuntuislo: like talking to a bot that won't respone :P | 01:45 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, editing hosts is not for the faint hearted but i use it since i do networking too | 01:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | :) | 01:45 |
| underdawg | i immediately get connection refused when I try to ssh/vnc into a computer on my lan, what should I check? | 01:45 |
| etfb | CokeNCode: is it new hardware or fairly old? | 01:45 |
| gladier | CokeNCode model? and usb/ps2? | 01:45 |
| * jason_ubuntuislo hahhaha | 01:45 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: i use one | 01:45 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: how do you add the user to the /etc/hosts? | 01:45 |
| CokeNCode | etfb, kinda oldish | 01:46 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kitche what how did you know that was a bot? | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | ps2 | 01:46 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: Trackman Marble? | 01:46 |
| lgc | Anyone had issues installing Googleearth? | 01:46 |
| nickrud | hvgotcodes, yes, for each component | 01:46 |
| shootz | can i install win ofc in ubuntu? | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, that's it ! | 01:46 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, you cant do that you can only add hosts to ip in etc hosts | 01:46 |
| ubuntu_ | cant format linux-swamp partition with gparted, running from live cd | 01:46 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: what doesn't work? | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | jeeze, i'm giving some really bad information here, sorry guys | 01:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lgc: whats the prob | 01:46 |
| kitche | !bot | jason_ubuntuislo | 01:46 |
| ubotu | jason_ubuntuislo: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, the buttons | 01:46 |
| underdawg | sigh | 01:46 |
| shootz | can i install microsoft ofc in ubuntu? | 01:46 |
| etfb | shootz: doesn't work very well. I recommend Open Office instead. | 01:46 |
| * mneptok 's Marble works splendidly | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | it's basically only using one button right now | 01:46 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: any of them? | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | the one furthest to the right | 01:46 |
| shootz | oh ok etfb | 01:46 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kitche i guess i was bored? | 01:46 |
| CokeNCode | so, if i select the right handed option | 01:47 |
| CokeNCode | i can left click | 01:47 |
| warriorforgod | shootz: Yes with wine | 01:47 |
| hvgotcodes | ok -- and i was told to remove all software from 3rd party repors (like compiz and e17) and those repos entries from sources before upgrading from feisty to gutsy | 01:47 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 01:47 |
| hvgotcodes | is that good advice? | 01:47 |
| CokeNCode | and if i select the left handed option, i can right click | 01:47 |
| etfb | shootz: be aware: it takes some getting used to, but it's pretty good. Worth the time. | 01:47 |
| nickrud | hvgotcodes, excellent advice you got | 01:47 |
| ubuntu_ | cant format linux-swamp partition with gparted, running from live cd | 01:47 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: do NOT emulate a three button mouse when asked | 01:47 |
| lgc | Jack_Sparrow, according to Synaptics, it is installed, but I can't make it work. Even when I reinstalled it, it only downloaded 65 KB (!!). | 01:47 |
| BB88 | I have 7-Zip installed. How can I run this program? | 01:47 |
| shootz | thanks... gonna try that | 01:47 |
| [reed] | so, if bulletproof-x always causes me to use xorg.conf.failsafe, how am I ever going to debug my Xorg problems? | 01:47 |
| * mneptok tootles off for food | 01:47 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | ubuntu_ what is the error your getting | 01:47 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | ubuntu_, you should change your name its close to a bot name | 01:48 |
| kitche | BB88: p7zip I believe is the command for it been a while sicne I ran 7zip *nix version | 01:48 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: then it seems like i can't do what i want to do, which is type ssh desktop and login to my remote computer. this bites | 01:48 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, how do i keep my other settings | 01:48 |
| CokeNCode | i don't wanna change anything else | 01:48 |
| CokeNCode | :S | 01:48 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, you can just make a shell script you want me to show you how? | 01:48 |
| nickrud | hvgotcodes, remove the sources from your list, update, then look under status, installed (local or obsolete), that's a good shortcut for what you are doing | 01:48 |
| BB88 | kitche: How would I browse to the "executable" file and add it to my main panel? | 01:48 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, will pressing esc for everything else | 01:49 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: i know how to make bash scripts, that's not the approach i want though. i don't want to add a file that doesn't already exist on my computer | 01:49 |
| CokeNCode | keep my settings as they are ? | 01:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lgc: when I did mine it wasnt in the repos. here is how I installed it.. hope it helps in some way.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48161/ | 01:49 |
| === shootz is now known as xxx_ |
| kitche | BB88: huh 7zip is a command line program in *nix | 01:49 |
| etfb | Having trouble with knetworkmanager: it won't automatically connect to my wireless access point. Worked fine in 7.04, not working in Gutsy. Any clues? | 01:49 |
| hvgotcodes | nickrud: so remove the sources from the list and that udpate, and that will remove all the extra softwarez? | 01:49 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, which mouse port should i choose ? | 01:49 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | http://pastebin.org/11540 | 01:49 |
| CokeNCode | /dev/input/mice ? | 01:49 |
| etfb | CokeNCode: did for me. It's pretty safe. | 01:49 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, look at that it is how you can use what you asked | 01:50 |
| BB88 | BB88: *nix as in Terminal? | 01:50 |
| CokeNCode | it's ps2 | 01:50 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, if im missing something let me try to help you | 01:50 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: /dev/input/mice | 01:50 |
| nickrud | hvgotcodes, doing that will orphan them, not remove them. synaptic will sort the orphaned ones into that status section for easy removal | 01:50 |
| CokeNCode | ImPS/2 | 01:50 |
| mneptok | yup | 01:50 |
| CokeNCode | or ExplorerPS/2 ? | 01:50 |
| mneptok | IM | 01:50 |
| kitche | BB88: *nix as in operating system like linux Unix BSD | 01:50 |
| underdawg | how do i kill all vnc sessions? | 01:50 |
| CokeNCode | how the heck would i know which protocol my mouse is using :S | 01:51 |
| === [DnH]`Lapinou`sn is now known as d3sty |
| jason_ubuntuislo | underdawg, you can do ps aux to see its PID # | 01:51 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: it seems like the linux guys would have already thought of this and built a way in. i can't be the first person who got tired of writing | 01:51 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: it comes to you in a lucid dream | 01:51 |
| BB88 | kitche: I am just assuming 7-Zip in Linux is the same as 7-Zip on Windows? | 01:51 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | underdawg, then do a sudo kill -9 PID# | 01:51 |
| matthew4 | usename at symbol and long IP addrss... | 01:51 |
| nickrud | underdawg, killall vnc<tab> I think would be a quick method | 01:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CokeNCode: I use a logitec trackball and I use explorerPS-2 | 01:51 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, i only remember my nightmares ... although, I guess that would make sense | 01:51 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, well i think your looking to do what? a inline param? | 01:51 |
| === Varka_ is now known as Varka |
| kitche | BB88: well it is but you need to run it in Terminal since it's p7zip think there is a gui frontend to it as well | 01:51 |
| CokeNCode | thanks Jack_Sparrow | 01:51 |
| mneptok | matthew4: they did think of it. they created shell aliases. | 01:51 |
| CokeNCode | so why shouldn't i emulate 3-button mouse again ? | 01:52 |
| hvgotcodes | hmm how to remove a source? | 01:52 |
| mneptok | matthew4: feel free to re-invent the wheel, though ;) | 01:52 |
| hdevalence | how do I get my computer to use more ram? | 01:52 |
| CokeNCode | in fact | 01:52 |
| CokeNCode | i won't ask questions | 01:52 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, matt you know you can make a dynamic script for passing it info | 01:52 |
| CokeNCode | i'll just follow instructions | 01:52 |
| CokeNCode | it is a 3 button mouse tho | 01:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np.. hope it helps.. it just worked.. let me know if you need to see my xorg | 01:52 |
| BB88 | kitche: Yes I am looking for the frontend, I have installed it through sudo via terminal, and depos. | 01:52 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: that's a good soldier! | 01:52 |
| ubuntu_ | cant format linux-swamp partition with gparted, running from live cd | 01:52 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: that's not a good method though. there are dozens of shells. i don't want to edit dozens of config files. | 01:52 |
| etfb | CokeNCode: emulating 3-btn mice just translates simultaneous left+right click as a middle click | 01:52 |
| buttercups | BB88, If you want to use 7-zip in file roller install p7zip-full | 01:52 |
| mneptok | matthew4: i told how to do it | 01:52 |
| mneptok | matthew4: sudo echo alias desktop='ssh user@desktop' >> /etc/profile | 01:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ubuntu_: it can create one. dont think it actually formatted it though | 01:53 |
| CokeNCode | oh, ok | 01:53 |
| CokeNCode | hmmm | 01:53 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, can you paste a few examples to pastebin for me? i want to see what your doing | 01:53 |
| CokeNCode | nothing changed | 01:53 |
| CokeNCode | mouse still screwy | 01:53 |
| CokeNCode | is there a final step here ? | 01:53 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: ensure the mouse is not physically broken? | 01:53 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | ubuntu_, yes you can format also with fdisk ? why do you need to format it? | 01:53 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: ? this will work with all shells, even those I don't have installed currently? all shells use this /etc/profile file? will this also work with all users on my computer (current and future)? | 01:54 |
| CokeNCode | mneptok, nawww | 01:54 |
| mneptok | CokeNCode: does it work perfectly in another OS or system? | 01:54 |
| CokeNCode | Jack_Sparrow, i think i might need to take a peak at the config file of yours my friend | 01:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CokeNCode: sorry, I was not following along.. I told mine to emulate 3 button and selected explorer over the other option | 01:54 |
| CokeNCode | time to get down n dirty | 01:54 |
| etfb | Ah! there's a #kubuntu channel! I'll ask there. Shiny. | 01:54 |
| mneptok | matthew4: correct. all login shells source /etc/profile for all users. | 01:54 |
| lgc | Jack_Sparrow, I downloaded it from the repo on my machine. And when I cloned the install on this one, it just seems not to be there (although Synaptic disagrees). | 01:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CokeNCode: let me post it | 01:54 |
| CokeNCode | k | 01:54 |
| macogw | hey who was around the other day when LimCore was asking how to make sudo ask for root password instead of the user's password? the answer turns out to be in the sudoers manpage | 01:54 |
| ubuntu_ | want to because i cant acces if from winxp | 01:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lgc: of you got it yourself.. look at the page I linked | 01:55 |
| BB88 | buttercups: What do you mean, sorry? I have used 'sudo apt-get install p7zip-full' but it says I have it already installed (assuming via depos). | 01:55 |
| nickrud | macogw, what section? | 01:55 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, ive never used /etc/profile except for oracle is this what its for? | 01:55 |
| macogw | nickrud: Defaults. you add "rootpw" | 01:55 |
| matthew4 | mneptok, jason_ubuntuislo: ok thanks to you both, i will try the /etc/profile method, but i hope i never have to edit one of these config files again, i hate repeating set-up stuff. thanks to you both. | 01:55 |
| eko_hermiyanto | hello, good morning | 01:55 |
| lgc | I did... you did a manual install. I've gotten too lazy for such things, after apt. Only when there's no other choice... | 01:55 |
| macogw | nickrud: er, well the "sudoers options" section of the manpage. you put "rootpw" in the defaults section though | 01:56 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, your welcome | 01:56 |
| eko_hermiyanto | is there any emulator which able to run MAC OS X application on top of Ubuntu? | 01:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CokeNCode: here is mine http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/48162/ | 01:56 |
| bruenig | eko_hermiyanto, no | 01:56 |
| CokeNCode | thanks buddy | 01:56 |
| nickrud | macogw, just found it, thanks. Good to know | 01:56 |
| * jason_ubuntuislo gezz even my boss isnt that picky? | 01:56 |
| eko_hermiyanto | bruenig, ohhhh my bad day :( | 01:56 |
| kitche | matthew4: /etc/profile is for sh shells | 01:56 |
| eko_hermiyanto | I need adobe flash cs3 badly for my work | 01:56 |
| bruenig | eko_hermiyanto, use windows | 01:57 |
| lgc | Jack_Sparrow, gotta go now. Thanks for your help. | 01:57 |
| macogw | nickrud: there's also an option to make it ask for the pw of whomever you're sudo-ing as (since you can sudo as someone other than root too) | 01:57 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, theres a howto to use wine but its not that great | 01:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np welcome to ubuntu | 01:57 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, if you find a better way let me know | 01:57 |
| kitche | macogw: if you sudo as root there is no point of using sudo then :) | 01:57 |
| nickrud | macogw, yes, targetpw, reading the man page again for a while | 01:57 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, theres also a way to make gimp look sorta like photoshop research gimpshop | 01:57 |
| etfb | eko_hermiyanto: have you considered running VMWare Server (which is free-as-in-beer) and installing Windows as a virtual machine? It's slow, but it's better than nothing | 01:58 |
| BB88 | Jack_Sparrow: I got it working in the end. | 01:58 |
| samstern | Hi I'm new to ubuntu and found a circular package reference (a broken package). where dos this get reported to (at)? | 01:58 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, actually etfb is right and you can install 2X server and run it as an app on ubuntu i do this at work | 01:58 |
| eko_hermiyanto | jason_ubuntuislo, I am using Wine every day, and I think it's great piece of software. I am using wine to run software to view mdi files, remote administrator, respak, and triton, but alas, my flash is for mac :( | 01:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BB88: Glad to hear it.. | 01:58 |
| nickrud | kitche, there was a guy that had a use case that made some sense, like a lab where firefox pops up the install flash request, and the admin puts in the root passwd for the user | 01:58 |
| kitche | samstern: are you sure since not all repos are enabled by default | 01:58 |
| kitche | nickrud: so sort of like gksu | 01:59 |
| eko_hermiyanto | etfb, I am using qemu to run windows too and it works good(only the network system is not run yet) | 01:59 |
| macogw | kitche: no no, it forces regular users to know the root password to use sudo | 01:59 |
| nickrud | kitche, yes | 01:59 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, yes i agree but wine cannot do it for all win programs | 01:59 |
| BB88 | Jack_Sparrow: It was because my rip output file was the same name as the encode file, so it could not overwrite ;) | 01:59 |
| matthew4 | mneptok: your method did not work, says: bash: /etc/profile: Permission denied | 01:59 |
| samstern | Kitche: yes -- I've manualy enabled the server (or Iw ould never have enabled the libgd2 software afaik) | 01:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BB88: glad to hear it was something simple.. sorry we could not see that from here | 01:59 |
| macogw | kitche: so you avoid "su -" login, do stuff, "exit", do more as not-root | 01:59 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, vmware has a free version for vmware-server edition and it has great bridging features compared to virtualbox | 01:59 |
| nickrud | kitche, the solution was setting the gconf key for gksu , but the sudo one is worth knowing | 01:59 |
| kitche | macogw: I know just that it sounds kind of redundent to me | 01:59 |
| eko_hermiyanto | jason_ubuntuislo, yes, unless we copy native dll into wine :)) | 02:00 |
| samstern | kitche: but who knows? I'm new to ubuntu and its been a while since used debian based stuff | 02:00 |
| BB88 | Jack_Sparrow: Heh, my own fault, but I got there in the end. Thank you anyhow! | 02:00 |
| CokeNCode | ok | 02:00 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, i think i tried that once what did you use to track which dll's it was using | 02:00 |
| CokeNCode | copied the iinfo | 02:00 |
| eko_hermiyanto | jason_ubuntuislo, I think I should give vmware a try :D | 02:00 |
| CokeNCode | now to reboot | 02:00 |
| kitche | samstern: well there is three repos multiverse universe and main main is enabled by default | 02:00 |
| nubcake | good morning everyone | 02:00 |
| kitche | macogw: but I know what you mean since kde does it if it's setup correctly | 02:00 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | eko_hermiyanto, i use that and check out the free 2X program you want a link to that too? | 02:00 |
| samstern | kitche - where in the ux (or via cli) would I check whats enabled? | 02:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | BB88: np take care stop in any time.. It is a good place just to read along when you have time | 02:00 |
| tonyyarusso | kitche: four - restricted | 02:00 |
| tonyyarusso | kitche: In current releases, all 4 are enabled by default. | 02:01 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | http://www.2x.com/ | 02:01 |
| DG19075 | I've had prbs with Wine running Adobe Audition. The buttons don't look the same under Wine(configured to look like XP)as they do Windows | 02:01 |
| Neodudeman | ok, so fluxbox is stuck as my default session, and I can't seem to change it because my GDM theme doesn't have a session button; is there a way to change it from the terminal? | 02:01 |
| macogw | kitche: it could save time if you needed to switch between root and regular commands a lot i guess. it still seems silly to me to use root's pw there instead of your own overall, but the use case given was they didnt want the user to have permission to do anything at all, and so the admin would walk over if root access was needed | 02:01 |
| kitche | tonyyarusso: oh did not know that but I always thought restricted was part of multiverse | 02:01 |
| macogw | kitche: for gksu there's an option in gconf to use sudo mode or not, but i'm talking about command line sudo right now | 02:01 |
| eko_hermiyanto | jason_ubuntuislo, yes thanks bro | 02:01 |
| dor0 | OMG, my desktop cube is working!!!! | 02:01 |
| === iamtooawesome is now known as whoabadass |
| jason_ubuntuislo | your welcome eko_hermiyanto | 02:02 |
| === whoabadass is now known as iamtooawesome |
| tonyyarusso | kitche: Nope. Restricted is officially supported for Canonical support contracts, and is things like firmware, whereas multiverse is not supported and has a broader range of software in it. | 02:02 |
| nickrud | dor0, now, does suspend still work ;) | 02:02 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | hey ive got a question anyone know why dual monitors have so much trouble with nvidia drivers? | 02:02 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | brb | 02:02 |
| matthew4 | jason_ubuntuislo: any other ideas? i couldn't edit /etc/profile for some reason | 02:02 |
| tonyyarusso | I'm looking for a browser bookmarks sync service that will work with both Firefox and Epiphany - any recommendations? | 02:02 |
| macogw | tonyyarusso: del.icio.us? | 02:02 |
| macogw | tonyyarusso: or if you're an OpenID fan, ma.gnolia.com | 02:03 |
| nickrud | matthew4, sudo sh -c echo "alias desktop='ssh user@host' | 02:03 |
| ^KK^|irssi | hi | 02:03 |
| dor0 | mate, the only reason i boot in windows is to play some stupid games, i have ubuntu from 1 month, and i cant stop using it | 02:03 |
| Xacarith | I h ad trouble at first setting up my dual monitors because the nvidia tool couldn't right to the configuration file due to permitions. | 02:03 |
| samstern | kitche: I've checked "Software sources" and all boxes under 2rd party and cannocial software are checked | 02:03 |
| tonyyarusso | macogw: I'll look into those - not really familiar with how they work though | 02:03 |
| kitche | samstern: what software are you trying to install anyways | 02:03 |
| === iamtooawesome is now known as iamtooawesome_ |
| === pras__ is now known as SR71-Blackbird1 |
| nickrud | matthew4, erm, add a finishing " to that line | 02:04 |
| macogw | tonyyarusso: they store your bookmarks online so you can access them anywhere | 02:04 |
| === SR71-Blackbird1 is now known as SR71-Blackbird |
| samstern | kitche: those 3rd party are "partner", "PArtner source", "MEdia" and "Wine" (which I added, cant' live without wine!!) | 02:04 |
| tonyyarusso | macogw: How do they integrate with the browser itself? | 02:04 |
| nickrud | tonyyarusso, we use del.icio.us to share bookmarks at work, firefox has several extensions | 02:04 |
| macogw | tonyyarusso: ive never use magnolia, but delicious has a firefox extension | 02:05 |
| macogw | tonyyarusso: idk about epiphany extension, but they're also browser-based | 02:05 |
| nubcake | first of all.. please apologize my bad english, but would someone of you guys please be so kind and point me to the right direction to start with my network-problem? the situation is as follows: i removed the old mainboard from my ubuntu server (Gigabyte K8NS Ultra939 Nforce3 or 4 chipset) and replaced it with a socket 775 mainboard which chipset i dont really know.. and now my eth0 interface is gone.. (before i used the nforce nic) and now ls | 02:05 |
| === iamtooawesome_ is now known as iamtooawesome |
| samstern | kitchie and tonyrusso get ready for text blob | 02:05 |
| tonyyarusso | nickrud, macogw: cool | 02:05 |
| Rockoman | What program can I use to make an MP3 cd on Ubuntu | 02:05 |
| matthew4 | nickrud: same thing. says bash: /etc/profile: Permission denied. | 02:05 |
| macogw | tonyyarusso: if you click to add it to your delicious from the ff extension, it pops up a little webpage and asks what you want to tag it and name it, and an optional description | 02:05 |
| tonyyarusso | !mp3 | Rockoman | 02:05 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Rockoman: k3b with the mp3 add-on | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | I'm not looking for an MP3 player, but software to make an MP3 cd | 02:06 |
| samstern | blob2 "apt-get install bison-doc libgd-gd2-perl libgd2-xpm libgd2-xpm-dev libgdchart-gd2-xpm-dev libgdchart-gd2-xpm libgd-graph3d-perl libgd-tools libgdchart-gd2-xpm-dev" | 02:06 |
| nickrud | matthew4, then sudo nano /etc/profile , and add it to the bottom by hand. sudo echo is wierd, gotta use tee somewhere in the line and I never remember it right | 02:06 |
| hallo | hello | 02:06 |
| macogw | Rockoman: an mp3 cd is just a data cd | 02:06 |
| matthew4 | nickrud: ok, will try that | 02:06 |
| nubcake | hallo: hi | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | ohhh | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | duh | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | lol | 02:06 |
| lockd | Rockoman: with mp3s as the files | 02:06 |
| hallo | i cannot start kdeinit | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | thanks macog | 02:06 |
| kitche | samstern: just means that it's not going to install look though the repos and see if it's there or not | 02:06 |
| macogw | Rockoman: just use k3b or gnomebaker or whatever regular old cd burning app you want, and pick a bunch of mp3s | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | yeah i knew that | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | opps | 02:06 |
| nickrud | matthew4, you might want to set up a backup system, add /etc/profile to it for restoration | 02:06 |
| samstern | issue: I want XPM support but the libgdchart is erronisoly set to need the no xpm version of libgd2 | 02:06 |
| Rockoman | thanks | 02:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Rockoman: I assumed you meant with mp3's as your source files | 02:07 |
| CokeNCode | ah well, no joy | 02:07 |
| neur1 | what's the server kernel or mode for? | 02:07 |
| samstern | so it's an exclusion problem the package should depend upon libgd2-xpm-dev not libgd2-noxpm-dev | 02:07 |
| CokeNCode | any other suggestions guys ? | 02:08 |

| samstern | kitchie: however is this the right forum for this (admittigly techical) question? | 02:08 |
| kelsin | neur1: afaik the server kernel just has something's enabled that are commonly found on server hardward, not much more is different on the server install other then the software included on the cd, and the default install choices | 02:08 |

| SavageOne | can anyone help me w/ the rsync syntax? | 02:08 |
| nickrud | samstern, are you sure it depends on -no-xpm or only preferrs it? | 02:08 |
| matthew4 | nickrud: do i have to restart my computer for changes to take affect? | 02:08 |
| * emgent hi | 02:08 |
| kitche | samstern: yes this is the channel might want to ask someone more informed of apt | 02:09 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | SavageOne, whats up i can help | 02:09 |
| samstern | how would I find that out -- look again at my apt-get line and the resulting error | 02:09 |
| nickrud | matthew4, no, either log out and back in or type in a terminal, source /etc/profile | 02:09 |
| SavageOne | jason: I just explained did you get all that? | 02:09 |
| etfb | matthew4: the general answer to the question "should I reboot" in Linux is no. In Windows it's "of course!" | 02:09 |
| matthew4 | etfb: well, it doesn't work, that's why i asked | 02:09 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | SavageOne, just change params in rsync to which host | 02:10 |
| neur1 | thanks, can I uncomment it so it doesnt show up in my list then cause I wont use it | 02:10 |
| SavageOne | can you give me an example of the syntax? | 02:10 |
| SavageOne | it works over ssh tunnel right? | 02:10 |
| kelsin | SavageOne: " | 02:10 |
| bmk789 | what does a "grub read error" mean? it just started after i switched my motherboard | 02:10 |
| kelsin | SavageOne: "man rsync" has a whole bunch | 02:10 |
| CokeNCode | oops | 02:10 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | SavageOne, yes it works over ssh | 02:10 |
| macogw | matthew4: usually the most you have to do is logout | 02:10 |
| etfb | matthew4: ah well, every rule has an exception (except this one) | 02:10 |
| SavageOne | kelsin: I'm there now ;) | 02:10 |
| CokeNCode | hmmm, | 02:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: it means you changed or added a hard drive | 02:11 |
| CokeNCode | thanks a heap guys | 02:11 |
| SavageOne | just trying to figure this out I'm not so hot w/ ubuntu just yet | 02:11 |
| CokeNCode | problem ... resolved ... ish | 02:11 |
| === xxx_ is now known as OrTigaS |
| jason_ubuntuislo | SavageOne, rsync *.html root@10.108.111.3:/tmp | 02:11 |
| etfb | CokeNCode: how did you fix it? dpkg-reconfig? | 02:11 |
| fabio | is any way to control windows with ubuntu????' | 02:11 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: but ive reinstalled grub twice with no success | 02:11 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | SavageOne, or rsync root@10.108.111.3:/tmp/*.html /home/myname | 02:11 |
| kelsin | fabio: control windows as in remote desktop type of things? | 02:11 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | rsync works both ways | 02:12 |
| Cpudan80 | fabio: Define control | 02:12 |
| fabio | kelsin: like torjan | 02:12 |
| samstern | SavageOne: /usr/bin/time /usr/bin/rsync -az --delete-after --bwlimit=1500 --password-file=/root/mail.txt -e 'ssh -l root' root@mail.samstern.net::home/sam/.spamassassin/ /home/sam/.spamassassin/ 2>&1 >> /var/log/mail_sync.log | 02:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: did you add a drive or edit any partition on that drive | 02:12 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | -avz holds all permission settings | 02:12 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: no | 02:12 |
| Neodudeman | is there anyway to change GDM settings in terminal? | 02:12 |
| kelsin | fabio: you mean "take" control of a windows computer illegally? I would search other channels, not going to find anything here | 02:12 |
| hobbit_ | i have a netgear wg111 usb and if i bump it I lose internet connection. I then have to reboot to regain a connection. Is there anything in settings that can allow the device to connect after being unplugged and replugged w/o a reboot? | 02:12 |
| * nickrud thinks any command line more than 80 chars long needs a gui front end ;p | 02:12 |
| SavageOne | let me ask you thishow do I run command in ssh mode and be able to close out of my ssh client and look at it again alter | 02:13 |
| fabio | cpudan80: TORJAN | 02:13 |
| xLE | jason_ubuntuislo, i had no such luck finding libreadline.so.4 in any of the packages. | 02:13 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Neodudeman, you mean to change default GDM manager settings? | 02:13 |
| Cpudan80 | fabio: what the hell is torjan ? | 02:13 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, what package you installin | 02:13 |
| vizzie | bah.. I do lots of fun things from the command line :) | 02:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: Is it in the same position as in sda1 or primary bus vs secondary bus etc | 02:13 |
| matthew4 | ok, so editing /etc/profile doesn't work for me. i type ssh desktop and it says ssh: Name or service not known | 02:13 |
| xLE | libreadline5. | 02:13 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Cpudan80, i think he means trojan | 02:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: are you dual booting? | 02:13 |
| Neodudeman | jason_ubuntuislo: oh hey. ya, if I could just default the GDM settings from terminal, that'd be great. | 02:13 |
| kelsin | matthew4: what are you trying to do? | 02:13 |
| nickrud | matthew4, no, all you should have to do is type desktop, the ssh is already part of the alias | 02:13 |
| fabio | lcpudan: its like an virus but controls victim computer | 02:14 |
| matthew4 | nickrud: i see, i don't want to type desktop though, i want to type ssh desktop | 02:14 |
| kelsin | matthew4: add "ip.address desktop" to your /etc/hosts file to get that, or listen to nickrud for the proper way to alias | 02:14 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: nope, ubuntu only, how should i reconfigure grub to boot? | 02:14 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, didnt we cover this? | 02:14 |
| fabio | Kelsin. WHY NOT | 02:14 |
| Cpudan80 | fabio: OK - first of all - freenode doesn't support llegal activity -- therefore neither does ubuntu | 02:14 |
| CokeNCode | etfb, editing the xorg.conf file | 02:14 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Neodudeman, what settings you need changed? | 02:14 |
| kelsin | fabio: this is an ubuntu support channel, not an "i want to act like an idiot" channel | 02:14 |
| yassine | how can one create a tap device in ubuntu? | 02:14 |
| Cpudan80 | fabio: Second, learn to speak English - it's spelled *trojan* | 02:14 |
| Pici | !illegal | fabio | 02:14 |
| ubotu | fabio: piracy discussion and other questionably legal practices are not welcome in the Ubuntu channels. Please take this discussion elsewhere or abstain from it altogether. This includes linking to pirated software, music and video. Also see !guidelines and !o4o | 02:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: need to identify what caused the problem.. there is super grub repair CD... are you running a live cd on it now? | 02:14 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: yes im on a kubuntu livecd now | 02:15 |
| neur1 | is gedit a program? | 02:15 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | yes | 02:15 |
| Pici | neur1: yes, for the gnome desktop. | 02:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neur1: yes | 02:15 |
| nickrud | matthew4, lol, now you're being told to add to /etc/hosts again | 02:15 |
| kelsin | neur1: yes, the default gnome text editor | 02:15 |
| Neodudeman | jason_ubuntuislo: i need it to go back to either the default session of xclient, or the default theme human | 02:15 |
| * genii does some unfun things from the command line | 02:15 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | matthew4, lol | 02:15 |
| matthew4 | nickrud: i know! but that already doesn't work. I've done this before, the way I want, and it worked. i just don't remember how | 02:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: have you got the hard drive mounted? | 02:15 |
| K`zan | anyone know where cups stores remote printers, it is not in /etc/cups/printers.conf no matter what they say :-). Only thing there is my local printer... | 02:15 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: yes | 02:16 |
| fabio | kelsin: lol | 02:16 |
| neur1 | i'm in xubuntu how do i edit files? | 02:16 |
| samstern | Kitche did you respond? I might have missed it int he flood -- how do I determine if the fault in installaing libgdgraph is a preferance or a bad referenace int eh .deb? | 02:16 |
| Cpudan80 | neur1: vim | 02:16 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | neur1, gedit or vim | 02:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: I dont do kde... but from a term you should be able to do fdisk -l "L" is the last character | 02:16 |
| kitche | samstern: you just install the .deb and see why it's failing afterwards | 02:16 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: there is no gedit in XFCE. | 02:16 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Neodudeman, hmm ok are you attempting to setup the default Gnome desktop from kde? | 02:16 |
| neur1 | so vim . . . file? | 02:16 |
| Cpudan80 | yep | 02:16 |
| matthew4 | nickrud: FYI, just typing desktop doesn't work either, says bash: desktop; command not found | 02:16 |
| kelsin | matthew4: there are three ways to do that, either run your own dns server (probably too much) edit your /etc/hosts file, or edit your ~/.ssh/config file to include a "Host desktop" section with a "Hostname" section beneath it, check "man ssh_config" for more info | 02:16 |
| Pici | neur1: or nano, its easier imho than vim | 02:17 |
| neur1 | thanks | 02:17 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: ok, what do i need to get from that? | 02:17 |
| fabio | Cpudan80: is not inlegal you bastard | 02:17 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | neur1, im assuming you installed gedit | 02:17 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: please be sure your advice will actually work before giving it | 02:17 |
| PriceChild | !ohmy | fabio | 02:17 |
| ubotu | fabio: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 02:17 |
| samstern | kitche thanks I'll pursue that; thanks. I need to go | 02:17 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | neur1, you can do sudo apt-get install gedit | 02:17 |
| tonyyarusso | nickrud, macogw: found it - epilicious, in care extensions | 02:17 |
| xLE | is there a way, so i don't always have to enter my password in for sudo? | 02:17 |
| neur1 | it says i don't have it as of now | 02:17 |
| nickrud | matthew4, listen to kelsin, he was kind to me when he said listen to me ;) | 02:17 |
| samstern | Kitche and TonyRusso: I apprecaite your help | 02:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: can you put that in the pastebin .. not in the channel.. then post your boot/grub/menu.lst for us to | 02:17 |
| samstern | xLE: yes man sudoers | 02:17 |
| Cpudan80 | neur1: nano might be easier than vim -- it guides you along a bit more than vim does | 02:17 |
| matthew4 | kelsin: in the second method of editing .ssh/config, can Host include the user? | 02:17 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, isnt this ubuntu channel? he should be in xubunu ? no? | 02:17 |
| kelsin | Cpudan80: vim guides people now? | 02:17 |
| fabio | thanks PriceChild | 02:17 |
| fabio | ... | 02:18 |
| neur1 | do i need to install nano? | 02:18 |
| Cpudan80 | neur1: nope | 02:18 |
| kelsin | matthew4: yes via the "User" command, you should really read the manpage for ssh_config, that file is very handy if you do a lot of sshing around | 02:18 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: your advice is incorrect and will not work for him, despite the channel. | 02:18 |
| neur1 | k thanks | 02:18 |
| Neodudeman | jason_ubuntuislo: right now I'm stuck in fluxbox, because I accidentally set it as my default session window manager in the GDM. When I log onto the GDM, I can't change the session back to gnome because the theme I installed doesn't have a session changer; so I would like to change the GDM all the way back to its original default settings | 02:18 |
| Cpudan80 | kelsin: no, but nano has all those commands listed at the bottom of the window | 02:18 |
| kitche | jason_ubuntuislo: it's really the same base system just the gui is different | 02:18 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: please be sure your advice will actually work before giving it | 02:18 |
| underdawg | do i have to be logged in to my desktop to vnc into it from a remote spot? | 02:18 |

| fabio | Hello im fabio and im developer of ubuntu in portugal | 02:18 |
| xLE | i don't get it.. | 02:18 |

| olskolirc | hello. what is the program called that allows us to put in the real isp email address and it returns the contact information? | 02:18 |
| Cpudan80 | kelsin: Real men use vim ;-) | 02:18 |
| Pici | fabio: Do you have a question here? | 02:18 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Kitche ahh thanks | 02:19 |
| fabio | any questions can talk | 02:19 |
| olskolirc | they sure do Cpudano80 *kisses* | 02:19 |
| Cpudan80 | kelsin: And they turn off the syntax highlighting :-) | 02:19 |
| kelsin | Cpudan80: lol | 02:19 |

| Cpudan80 | B&W for the win! | 02:19 |
| * nickrud thinks vim is for masochists and system admins (hard to differentiate) | 02:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | k | 02:19 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: "21:13 < neur1> i'm in xubuntu how do i edit files?" <-- that was the question you answered | 02:19 |
| Cpudan80 | nickrud: rofl | 02:19 |
| underdawg | is there a way that i can log into my desktop through vnc while someone else is using their desktop? | 02:19 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, hey what is the way to resetup Gnome for session from the command line? | 02:19 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, ahh sorry this channel is flying | 02:20 |
| Cpudan80 | underdawg: Yes... but it's painfully complicated | 02:20 |
| underdawg | how about xdmcp through windows? | 02:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: you were mixing ide and sata drives before as well? | 02:20 |
| vizzie | vi is OK.. it's fast and it's everywhere. If you ignore the user-hostile beep mode, it's a fine text editor | 02:20 |
| kelsin | underdawg: yeah there are vnc servers that create a new session even if you log in with a user that is already logged in, just not the default setup one that's included in ubuntu | 02:20 |
| underdawg | is that a way that i could happen cpudan? | 02:20 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: yes | 02:20 |
| Cpudan80 | underdawg: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/ | 02:20 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, did you understand what i was asking? | 02:20 |
| Cpudan80 | underdawg: Just follow the directions and pray | 02:20 |
| mneptok | underdawg: what you are asking for sounds suspicious | 02:20 |
| LjL | fabio: we can talk in #ubuntu-ops | 02:20 |
| dor0 | just one more question guys, is a bug in grub or in kernel, i cant boot my linux without "nosplash", i tried everything possible, read the forums, etc, nothing works | 02:21 |
| underdawg | mneptok: i know, but i assure you it's not for suspicious reasons | 02:21 |
| underdawg | how about xdmcp? | 02:21 |
| underdawg | is that a way to start a new session? | 02:21 |
| Cpudan80 | underdawg: The fiesty instructions work fine with gutsy | 02:21 |
| dor0 | btw, i have 7.10 x64 | 02:21 |
| Cpudan80 | underdawg: Yes --- just follow those directions | 02:21 |
| bmk789 | underdawg: you can get xming on windows to run programs from your linux desktop on widnows remotely | 02:21 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, you ? online? | 02:21 |
| Neodudeman | mneptok, ya, are you? I could sure use your help. lol | 02:22 |

| jason_ubuntuislo | brb | 02:22 |
| underdawg | Cpudan80: I don't like to try stuff that involves praying | 02:22 |
| underdawg | hehe | 02:22 |
| mneptok | jason_ubuntuislo: hmm? | 02:22 |
| Cpudan80 | underdawg: It wont break anything... just might not work | 02:22 |
| Neodudeman | jason_ubuntuislo: it's ok, i guess. lol. I'll just wait | 02:22 |
| IanLiu | Why do sometimes a folder named "file:" is created in my Home folder?? | 02:23 |

| kelsin | underdawg: if you just want a vnc session for yourself while others can log in you can download one of the vncservers and start it up on a different display (:1 instead of the main gui in :0) then log into it remotely, not as flexible as doing the whole thing but will work | 02:24 |
| JakeConnor | would you guys trust buying ram for a mac pro at macramdirect.com? they have 4gb for $179... i can't believe that | 02:24 |

| SavageOne | I realize there's nothng in the command that has the authentication information. when I issued the command on the OTHER box which runs knoppix unfortunately and I'm trying to push the data to my new ubuntu machine, it basically asks me whether I want to permanently add this machine and what the root password is. well, I don't think it has a root account password persay. how in that syntax can I specify with user/pass to actually use because I have a | 02:25 |
| Neodudeman | jason_ubuntuislo: lol, after this; I think I may never leave either | 02:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JakeConnor: I am exhausted.. you want to take it from here.. | 02:26 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | change the info to like jason@192..... | 02:26 |
| JakeConnor | Jack_Sparrow: i was just laughing because i saw your nic... what are you guys talking about anyways? | 02:26 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | opps SavageOne u get that? | 02:26 |
| mneptok | SavageOne: also, the *.* is just wrong | 02:26 |
| kelsin | SavageOne: probably user@192.168.80.1 but I can garuntee the rsync man page says that | 02:26 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | Samui, yes just use * in linux not *.* | 02:26 |
| hdevalence | hey, would anybody proofread a letter to my member of parliament over copyright law & DRM ? I want to make sure it's not too technical.. | 02:27 |
| kelsin | SavageOne: yeah it's actually on the first page of the rsync man page | 02:27 |

| crimsun | xLE: we don't ship that. What app needs it? | 02:28 |
| xLE | a haskell package. | 02:28 |
| xLE | needed by GHC | 02:29 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | whats GHC? | 02:29 |
| SavageOne | mneptok: thanks man. hey when I am succesful will I get a progress showing or will it just go to the prompt | 02:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: Did I lose you... | 02:29 |
| xLE | http://www.haskell.org/ghc | 02:29 |
| JakeConnor | Jack_Sparrow: ewww, i'd just say back up your data and reinstall the os... thats why people put things on separate partitions anyways right? you cant really swap your motherboard unless you got the same exact one with the same version firmware and all the bells and whistles | 02:29 |
| TheZealot | If I issue a command in the terminal and it is taking a long time, is there a combination of keys I can press to end the command and get back to a shell? | 02:29 |
| crimsun | xLE: do you mean GHC itself? ghc6 exists. | 02:30 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, a compiler ok | 02:30 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: it all matches up | 02:30 |
| xLE | I have ghc | 02:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JakeConnor: Not with windows... | 02:30 |
| kitche | olskolirc: finger but most places have it disabled now | 02:30 |

| olskolirc | yeah i noticed that | 02:30 |
| xLE | I was trying to configure a package for ghc, but it needs libreadline.so.4 | 02:30 |
| crimsun | xLE: then you'll need to have that package redone for gutsy. | 02:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: it matches with hda or sda? | 02:30 |
| xLE | what do you mean? | 02:30 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: hda | 02:30 |
| xLE | i'm new to ubuntu/linux. | 02:30 |

| JakeConnor | Jack_Sparrow: oh you guys are talking about windows? i don't even touch that stuff | 02:31 |
| kelsin | xLE does the ubuntu package for ghc (called ghc) not work for your needs? | 02:31 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: would it be a good idea to chroot in and run update-grub then grub-install? | 02:31 |
| crush_groove | TheZealot, : control -C | 02:31 |
| crdlb | wers: Shift+alt+Up | 02:31 |
| xLE | ghc is all good, it's a package for ghc.. | 02:31 |
| crimsun | xLE: it was generated against a version of library that does not exist in gutsy. You'll need to regenerate the ghc addition. | 02:31 |
| TheZealot | crush_groove, perfect thank you! | 02:31 |
| mneptok | xLE: sudo apt-get install libreadline5-dev | 02:31 |

| kelsin | xLE what package? | 02:32 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | mneptok, is it possible his program is looking for a symlink to this .so file? | 02:32 |
| mneptok | [gquit]bombadil: you don't | 02:32 |
| [gquit]bombadil | mneptok: why not? | 02:32 |
| crdlb | !generic | [gquit]bombadil | 02:32 |
| ubotu | [gquit]bombadil: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed) | 02:32 |
| kitche | [gquit]bombadil: you don't the generic replaced them all | 02:32 |
| mneptok | xLE: does htis app need that *specific* version of libreadline? | 02:33 |
| mneptok | *this | 02:33 |
| xLE | yes. | 02:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bmk789: You said you had reinstalled grub twice... just rying to think for a sec... what about the boot priority in the bios.. also sata can be set to emulate ide etc.. what happens if yo pull the sata? | 02:33 |
| mneptok | xLE: like, ew. | 02:33 |

| xLE | it's a package for ghc.. called "irc" | 02:34 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: im afraid to boot it without the sata because my /home is an LVM between the 2 drives :\ | 02:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | k | 02:34 |
| tonyyarusso | Anyone know of a way to syncronize contacts between GMail and Evolution? | 02:34 |
| bmk789 | Jack_Sparrow: i installed grub to both HDs and tried booting to them both | 02:34 |
| xLE | because, this thing im doing requires verison 6.6.2, and I couldn't find out what verison it was. | 02:34 |
| [gquit]bombadil | how can i upgrade to the amd64 kernel? | 02:35 |
| mneptok | xLE: ohgawd. Haskell. | 02:35 |
| kelsin | xLE 6.6.1 | 02:35 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | tonyyarusso, i know theres programs you can export to a list to import to evolution let me find it | 02:35 |

| kelsin | xLE: then if you want to use their binaries instead of compiling it yourself you'll probably need to figure out a way to symlink the readline package or compile version 4 yourself | 02:36 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | tonyyarusso, this is to import csv to evo http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120099 | 02:36 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | tonyyarusso, that help u ? | 02:36 |
| soldats | narothepharoh, use synaptic package manager and search for plugins and codecs | 02:36 |
| tonyyarusso | jason_ubuntuislo: Well, sort of. Ideally I'm looking for a plugin type of thing that will do it automatically. | 02:37 |
| kelsin | Neodudeman: if you don't need any complex wep or wpa it's two commands "iwconfig <interface> essid <essid>" then "dhclient <interface>" look up the man of those two commands for more info | 02:37 |
| tonyyarusso | jason_ubuntuislo: A synchronization, rather than just copying manually. | 02:37 |
| hobbit_ | what is the command to restart your networking connection? | 02:37 |
| xLE | where would I get verison 4? | 02:37 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | tonyyarusso, if you want a automatic thing its a little more complicated i cant help you unless u know how to program | 02:37 |
| kelsin | xLE: I don't know, probably need to find the homepage for the readline library | 02:37 |
| hobbit_ | everytime i accidentally bump my wireless usb it goes out on me and i have to restart to get a connection. Any ideas? | 02:37 |
| underdaw1 | when I do a vncserver:2 it says error in locking authority file /home/person/.Xauthority | 02:38 |
| underdaw1 | what's that about? | 02:38 |
| Neodudeman | kelsin: and what if there's a 5-letter ascii wep? | 02:38 |
| tonyyarusso | jason_ubuntuislo: I don't :( Hopefully there will be a conduit data provider or something available soon | 02:38 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | hobbit_, its possible the usb is not being reloaded did you do a dmesg to see if its showing an issue | 02:38 |
| Neodudeman | kelsin: sike, i'll just look up the man pages; ty | 02:38 |
| hobbit_ | idk what that is | 02:38 |
| wers | how do i enable the expo? | 02:38 |
| kelsin | Neodudeman: you should look up the syntax of the iwconfig command with "man iwconfig" it has another command (like essid) to set the wep key | 02:38 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | tonyyarusso, some many things to build so little time | 02:38 |
| hvgotcodes | someone gave me advice (so i can safely update from feisty -> gutsy) to remove 3rd party sources and software | 02:39 |
| hvgotcodes | i removed the sources | 02:39 |
| hvgotcodes | but i do not see any orphaned packages | 02:39 |
| Neodudeman | kelsin: oh. I didn't know that man was a command. lol. ty | 02:39 |
| kelsin | xLE: I would recommend trying to compile the haskell compiler rather then trying to get another copy of libreadline | 02:39 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | iwconfig set wlan0 essid MYLAN i think | 02:39 |
| kelsin | Neodudeman: man is the most important command on your system, PERIOD | 02:39 |
| Neodudeman | kelsin: lol. ya, i've been asking google, but this is much more conveinient | 02:40 |

| jason_ubuntuislo | Neodudeman, he no problem i try | 02:41 |
| kitche | LjL: I heard their IMAP support isn't that great but imap is what people are starting to use though since it syncs all desktop email instead of having email all over I haven't tried it though | 02:41 |
| ruthmann_ | no suggestions? | 02:41 |
| kelsin | wers: download that ccsm package then you can see all the keys, setup new plugins and change the keybindings if youw ant | 02:41 |
| wers | i'm runnign a live cd right now | 02:41 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | LjL, yes but i love thier search in gmail no email program can compare | 02:41 |

| Zimp_ | is there an automatic way to update ipw2200 drivers in gusty ? | 02:42 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | tonyyarusso, you could also see if theres a program to interface into the gmail ive seen those out there | 02:42 |

| steve_ | wobbly windows anyone | 02:42 |

| kelsin | xLE: if you downloaded the binaries then you did not compile it, I would recommend doing one of two things 1) download the ghc source and really compile it, or 2) read the instructions on the ghc site next to the binary download, they have an rpm of readline 4 RIGHT THERE | 02:43 |
| tonyyarusso | LjL: Maybe I'm just not aware of it - enlighten me? | 02:43 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kitche, he wants to sync his contacts too | 02:43 |
| LjL | tonyyarusso, i must simply be missing something of what you want to do | 02:43 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kitche, i didnt know imap could do this | 02:43 |
| kelsin | xLE: you can download it, use the "alien" package to convert to a deb, and try installing that if you want | 02:43 |
| kitche | tonyyarusso: just configure your email clients for imap and enable it in gmail and there you go I have no clue about contacts though | 02:43 |
| eido | is it possible to break a linux gnu box by just pulling the plug on it? | 02:43 |
| kitche | jason_ubuntuislo: me neither but I m not usre but gmail might have an export command for them | 02:43 |
| LjL | tonyyarusso: contacts as they say, possibly | 02:43 |
| kelsin | eido: you can corrupt the file system yes | 02:43 |
| nibsa1242b | eido: it won't be happy about it if you do | 02:44 |
| kelsin | eido: (just like any modren OS) | 02:44 |
| kelsin | eido: *modern | 02:44 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | kitche, yes i posted a way to export to csv but he wants them updated all the time | 02:44 |
| hvgotcodes | what does installed (local or obsolete) mean in the package manager? | 02:44 |
| tonyyarusso | LjL, kitche: ... I know I can do the mail with IMAP - hence the question just about contacts. | 02:44 |
| nibsa1242b | I need help figuring out how to file a bug report. | 02:44 |
| ruthmann_ | \Can anyone recommend a good program to rip internet radio stations, that can split it into separate files by a specified length? | 02:44 |

| ruthmann_ | jason: have u used it before? | 02:46 |
| kelsin | nibsa1242b: if it's an ubuntu bug you want to file it in the ubuntu project | 02:46 |
| nibsa1242b | ok | 02:46 |
| kitche | tonyyarusso: sicne I believe they might have an application and I have to check my email anyways :) | 02:46 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | ruthmann_, nope just suggesting that its around | 02:46 |
| tritium | nibsa1242b: you'd report the bug against the ubuntu package, not the project | 02:46 |
| nibsa1242b | kelsin: tritium: I'm new to these things. I've only ever reported one bug before. Not sure exactly how to go about using the launchpad site. | 02:46 |
| xLE | how do i search for a specific package? | 02:47 |
| tonyyarusso | kitche: :) | 02:47 |
| xLE | apt-get search package_name*? | 02:47 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | sudo aptitude search | 02:47 |
| tritium | nibsa1242b: I'm about to host a LoCo meeting. Perhaps kelsin can assist... | 02:47 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | sudo aptitude search PACKAGENAME | 02:47 |
| nibsa1242b | kelsin: tritium: I think I'll be ok. I googled it and found the bug has already been reported on launchpad | 02:47 |
| LjL | jason_ubuntuislo: sudo with "search"? no need. | 02:47 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | LjL, ohh really | 02:47 |
| kelsin | nibsa1242b: you goto bugs.ubuntu.com and click on "Report a bug" | 02:47 |
| kelsin | nibsa1242b: well then you're all set | 02:47 |
| LjL | jason_ubuntuislo: yes really, why would one need root privilges to just *search* for a package? you aren't touching anything in the filesystem. | 02:48 |
| nibsa1242b | kelsin: yep, and the great thing is that there is a simple work around | 02:48 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | LjL, i always seem to use sudo because every time i do something it yells and says hey no permissions man ! | 02:48 |
| tritium | apt-cache search and aptitude search do not require sudo | 02:48 |
| toresn_ | what is the most common convention for naming multiple word directories, e.g. "a new directory" ? | 02:48 |
| nibsa1242b | kelsin: I'm happy. I often need the pdf editing power of flpsed. | 02:48 |
| crdlb | toresn_: what do you mean by "convention"? | 02:49 |
| xLE | kelsin, rpm is not for ubuntu? | 02:49 |
| kelsin | xLE: ubuntu does not use rpms, but we have the "alien" package that will convert rpm->deb | 02:49 |
| jason_ubuntuislo | xLE, alien will convert it | 02:49 |
| PriceChild | !alien | xLE kelsin jason_ubuntuislo | 02:49 |
| ubotu | xLE kelsin jason_ubuntuislo: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 02:49 |
| kelsin | xLE: it's not reliable and for big important packages not safe, but might work for this case | 02:50 |
| toresn_ | crdlb: etiquette | 02:50 |
| kitche | tonyyarusso: well I didn't see anything about clients but might want to do some searching about it | 02:50 |
| crdlb | toresn_: well I generally try to avoid it if that's what you mean, except for pure document folders (eg music grouped by artist/album) | 02:50 |
| kitche | tonyyarusso: clients/contacts | 02:51 |

| kelsin | Zimp_: /usr/src/linux is commonly just a symlink to the current kernel you have running, if that file isn't there isn't fine, they should be located in a folder in /usr/src | 03:09 |

| K_Dallas | Q: I have seen and used some of the email clinets in the market. But none so far has been good enough for my simple needs or that I was not able to use them effectively. For instance, if I want all the emails from a given person to go to a pre-determined folder. Or that I want all the emails with the same urgency be gathered together. If there a client enough flexibe and with such possibilities out there? Thanks | 03:15 |
| transcube | No, I meant how do I find out whether or not its using ext3, resierfs, etc. | 03:15 |
| K_Dallas | I was thinking that maybe some prefiltering by scripting could do this under linux but not that good with those stuff | 03:16 |
| Zimp_ | hmm | 03:16 |
| K_Dallas | transcube, fdisk -l | 03:16 |
| kelsin | K_Dallas: what clients hav eyou trued that havn't done this? I know Thunderbird and Evolution both can. You can also use procmail along with fetchmail and a client like mutt if you like a tech-savy cli solution | 03:16 |

| NeoPhyte21 | crdlb: gtk+2.0 was in there | 03:32 |

| crdlb | NeoPhyte21: you've manually installed gtk for some reason, which is a bad thing | 03:33 |

| NeoPhyte21 | crd: so i get rid of it by? | 03:34 |
| NeoPhyte21 | i may have cp'd the .pc file there thinking it would fix it last night | 03:34 |

| krammer | Right click on the open space then start new partition? | 03:35 |
| Jordan_U | underdaw1, Again, does the laptop have openssh-server installed? | 03:35 |
| scragar | krammer: create a new extended partition using as much space as you want, click apply and watch it work | 03:35 |
| underdaw1 | Jordan_U: yes | 03:35 |
| krammer | I am back from start | 03:36 |
| underdaw1 | Jordan_U: ssh and vnc installed | 03:36 |
| krammer | first do i resize the drive? | 03:36 |

| underdaw1 | Jordan_U: i can't login to vnc unless I login on this desktop though | 03:36 |
| underdaw1 | :( | 03:36 |
| Jordan_U | underdaw1, ssh in, if they are using a terminal right now the easiest thing to do would be to run "wall <message>" | 03:36 |
| scragar | krammer: you need unalocated space to do anything, so shrtinking/removing comes first | 03:36 |
| underdaw1 | i se | 03:36 |
| underdaw1 | wall is a cool command | 03:36 |
| underdaw1 | okay | 03:37 |
| RoAkSoAx | kromcuich: obviously...?? | 03:37 |
| kromcuich | RoAkSoAx: obviously i cant | 03:37 |
| krammer | what next::please | 03:37 |
| RoAkSoAx | kromcuich do a /etc/init.d/networking restart and paste the output to paste.ubuntu-nl.org | 03:38 |
| krammer | i have my space showing unallowcated? | 03:38 |
| scragar | krammer: if you've got some free space now right click on it and select new partition | 03:38 |
| Jordan_U | underdaw1, You can also set the DISPLAY variable to ":0.0" then run any GUI command and it will show up on his desktop if he is logged in ( "zenity" is probably a good place to look for quick messages ) | 03:38 |

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 03:53 |
