jdz_daveon: You shouldn't recomment them, that will break upgrades.12:01
Cuga_yeah thats the link i was looking for :)12:01
jdz_daveon: It's OK to use Universe, just realise that it's "unsupported".12:01

bigbrother0074kent, how would i go about finding a debian-package?  look for it at apt-get.org01:12
cerebrixbigbrother0074: you should post on the message board if you get that figured out, i have a nomad zen i need to replace the hd in and when i do, ill be looking for an answer to that question myself heh01:12
pixelmonkeyI need to download it, but Sun's website is fscked due to Solaris' release.01:12
cardadorAmaranth: have you figured out how it runs?01:13
bigbrother0074cerebrix, where's the msg board?01:13
cardadorAmaranth: like synaptic?01:13
Amaranthcardador: yeah, pretty simple01:13
Amaranthyou run it and if there are updates it shows them and has an "Update" button01:13
Amaranthclick and and kick back01:13
cardadorAmaranth: but does it auto update the packages?01:13
cerebrixunder community on www.ubuntulinux.org =D01:13

bigbrother0074cerebrix, oh..ok01:13
scorpixwhen i try boot the ubuntu livece my screem card wont work its nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] , so is it from xorg or ubuntu? cuz it works fine in debian(sarge).01:13
cardadorAmaranth: i have it already installed, but it says it is up to date01:14
Amaranthfor times you want to update only, not install01:14
Amaranththen you are up to date01:14
Amaranthalthough i've found that it says i am until i apt-get update01:14
asdfvhi01:14
Amaranththats an apt thing though, not an update-manager thing01:14
cardadorAmaranth: so from time to time it connects to the repositories to check for upgrades?01:14
asdfvhow can I login as root in ubuntu?01:14
OrngeTidebigbrother0074, i'm just spouting off a bit of trivia. I used QSSL's neutrino at a previous job, it's the main thing they sell (it's the kernel for QNX)01:14
Amaranthcardador: not that i'm aware of01:14
cardadorasdfv: no need for root, use sudo01:14
Amaranthalthough i think that would be the point01:14
LowryWhat is laptop-detect?01:15
asdfvso name:sudo passw:???01:15
AmaranthLowry: apt-cache show laptop-detect01:15
bigbrother0074OrngeTide, oh, i didn't know if that was supposed to help me or not.  ok.01:15
Amaranthasdfv: sudo command01:15
cerebrixi just think i realized something.  if i intended to patch my kernel source w/ new alsa drivers, i should probobly have done that to the source before i started compiling a .deb for the source huh?01:15
cardadorasdfv: what exactly you want to do?01:15
Amaranththen it asks for your password01:15
DeftLowry, laptop-detect just return whether or not it thinks you are using a laptop01:15
OrngeTidebigbrother0074, no. i'm not being helpful at all. :P01:15
AmaranthLowry: I'm assuming it's used by GNOME to know whether or not to monitor battery life.01:16
asdfvi have to modify the file etc/network/interfaces but i can't because i'm not a rott01:16

billytwowillythe software raid thing says "When RAID is configured, no additional changes to the partitions in the disks containing phsical volumes are allowed."

dr_willisthat remminds me - this new machine  i built had a serial ata raid controller that could do raid 0, or raid 1, or raid 1/0 - But I saw no mention of what '1/0' does.06:57
dr_willisbillytwowilly,  but if the hardware is there - isent it a better idea to let it do it in hardware.06:57
billytwowillydr_willis, Depends. you may well get better performance out of software06:57
dr_willisseems most every new motherboard has onboard raid these days. this is the first machine ive actually used it in.06:58
billytwowillydr_willis, you will take a cpu hit though. 15-20 % to do raid 5 on a decent machine.. atleast that's what I've been quoted06:58

billytwowillybasically, raid0= fast, but no fault tolerence, one drive goes and you are screwed for the whole array. raid one is just mirrored. raid 5= parity blocks on each drive so you get fast but you also get fault tolerence07:00
htaccess_OrngeTide: do you dual boot osx?07:00
dr_willisyea - i am still tyrying to figure out what the MB manual ment by Raid 1/007:00

dr_willisthat page mentioons raid 1+0, but not sure they are talking the same.07:01
billytwowillydr_willis, you need 4 drives to do that.07:01
billytwowillydr_willis, basically, it is a raid 0 of 2 or more raid 1 arrays07:01
OrngeTidehtaccess_, yea. although mainly because linux support for the original airport card is mediocre.07:01
dr_willisbillytwowilly,  yea thats what i just read.07:01
dr_willisso it still makes me wonder what the mb manual ment by raid 1/0 - perhaps they were to refering to a setting where you used EITHER raid 0 or 107:02
billytwowillydr_willis,  that page is quite decent for explaining. God bless google;)07:02
dr_willisBut heck - this little box is decent for me now. :P07:02
OrngeTidei used to have linux only on this machine. but when i broke down and paid for osx 10.3 i started doing dual boot. (10.3 is a lot faster on this rage128-based ibook than PB - 10.2 was)07:02
dr_willisbillytwowilly,  right :p i think the mb manual is the error07:02
=== OrngeTide prefers software raids to hardware raid.
billytwowillydr_willis, they probably mean RIAD 1007:02
dr_willisOrngeTide,  my pooor little imac dv barely handles OS-X :) but it sure looks purty!07:02
dr_willisbillytwowilly,  heh - i dont see how the MB can do that. it just has 2, serial ata cionectors.07:03
OrngeTidewe use 48-drive LVM at work. linux performs pretty well. managed to max out the bandwidth of 48 sata150 7200rpm drives just as a few raid5s07:03
OrngeTidedr_willis, yea. that's really pushing it for osx.07:03
dr_willisOrngeTide,  heh its just a little 'ssh' to the linux box machine. and some light web surfing. so it does its job.07:04
dr_willispoor imac's monitor is slowly dieing out on me. *sigh*07:04
OrngeTidemy ibook is 500mhz and has 256mb ram. so osx is pretty reasonable on it07:04
dr_willisyea i need more ram for it. but its barely wiorth the efrfort. the thing is only used a few hrs a month.07:04

htaccess_is there truly no way to have more than one item on the clipboard in gnome??07:25

OrngeTidehtaccess_, i wonder if those gnome clipboard items show up on xclipboard .. or if they are just special gnome/corba objects07:26
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) OrngeTide: xclipboard07:27
OrngeTidei never understood why people would ignore all the thing X gives and reinvent a bunch of it. usually the reinvented stuff doesn't even work as well as X11 from 10 years ago07:27
htaccess_when i use wordpress (blog software) you highlight the word you want to create a link with and click the link button and try paste the url you had on the clipboard but now the highlighted word is the one on the clipboard, very annoying but at least in kde you can select the correct item in klipper07:27

OrngeTidebillytwowilly, when you mount i'd recommend mounting with notail on your reiser volumes.07:55
billytwowillyok. why? what does notail do?07:56
OrngeTideit wastes space, but it will make small file access and appends a lot faster07:56

(bob2/#ubuntu) maybe you loaded the wrong module08:40

(Lathiat/#ubuntu) Shadow2: sorry not you08:58
bigbrother0074Lathiat, i don't know....a friend gave me a soundtrack in that format08:59
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) bigbrother0074: yeh its probabky apple, you cant play it, its a closed codec with patent restrictions and no ones written a decoder08:59
bigbrother0074damn08:59
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) you could play it in itunes for windows but that doesnt help :)09:00
mexpHi there.. Where do I disable ntp sync at boot time? It fails anyway, as the PPPoE is initiated only later?09:00
bigbrother0074Lathiat, no, http://www.m4a.com says it's just mpeg 4 audio file --- the nu .mp309:00
(GammaRay/#ubuntu) Shadow2: you need to boot w/ a rescue disk and reinstall grub09:00
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) bigbrother0074: yes but the only things i am aware of that use m4a atm is apple encoded stuff, and you wont be able to play that09:01
bigbrother0074oh09:01
bigbrother0074well shit09:01
(GammaRay/#ubuntu) Shadow2: try booting w/ the install cd.. you can press escape to see a menu of options09:01
(GammaRay/#ubuntu) Shadow2: I'm not really sure if there is one included.. and I'm not sure how to install grub09:02
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) bigbrother0074: if you like you can go convince them to release the specs to the gstreamer team so someone can write a decoder :)09:02

(Lathiat/#ubuntu) atu13439: Define can't boot into WinXP09:08
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) atu13439: What come up / what error / where do you get up to / etc09:08
atu13439thanks for the reply...error I get is please insert valid system disk09:09
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) do you have a floppy in your floppy drive09:09
atu13439no, no floppy09:09
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) and no cd?09:09
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) ok what you need is some kind of windows bootdisk or CD09:09
atu13439no cd as well...09:09
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) and to run fdisk /mbr09:09
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) the windows xp recovery console has a similar tool called 'fixmbr'09:10
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) you can run that off booting the cd09:10
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) [of winxp] 09:10
atu13439ok so boot from winxp cd and then type in fdisk /mbr09:10
(GammaRay/#ubuntu) hmm it's a bit disturbing that it would overwrite the MBR before you even partition09:10
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) no09:10
atu13439yeah thats the weird part09:10
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) GammaRay: it shouldnt have, not sure what happened there09:11
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) Amaranth: run 'fixmbr' in the windwos xp recovery console09:11
atu13439so how do i get to the command prompt on the win xp cd to type in "fdisk /mbr"09:11
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) atu13439: when you start the install09:11
(Lathiat/#ubuntu) it has an option to open the recovery console09:11

agwibowoxsetbg, xv, wmsetbg are not available in ubuntu09:47
agwibowoi don't know any other program to display picture in ubuntu09:47
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) agwibowo: well, you can just right-click the desktop and then click 'Change desktop background'09:47
agwibowonot gnome09:48
agwibowoi'm using fvwm209:48
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) agwibowo: you can install wmsetbg or xli or xloadimage09:48
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) or imagemagick09:48
agwibowooh09:48
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) all those can do that09:48
wood1By the way, I have installed the XFCE4 Window Manager. However I don't get the application menus while right clicking on an empty desktop09:48
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) wood1: the desktop is separate from the window manager09:48
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) wood1: xfce is a complete desktop environment, like gnome is09:48
wood1I get the App menu at the first right click of my mouse09:48
wood1After that I get the same menu as in GNOME Desktop09:49
wood1What I mean to say is that I want to access all the applications while right-clicking on the XFCE desktop09:50
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) wood1: read xfce documentation, I don't know09:50
wood1Ok , thanks09:50
(crimsun/#ubuntu) wood1: you need the package xfdesktop4 installed, too09:51
agwibowoi reckon fvwm2 is better than xfce09:51
agwibowosimpler, faster09:51
(crimsun/#ubuntu) wood1: and if you're upgrading from a previous version of xfce4, it's a good idea to mv ~/.xfce4 ~/.xfce4_old09:52

OrngeTidecrimsun, well i don't want gnome. at all. but i want gdm09:55
(crimsun/#ubuntu) it's not a security issue but a msn issue that was corrected in versions newer than 1.0.0, carsonc.09:55
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) still, use the package09:55
carsoncAh, I see!  I don't use MSN, so I never pay attention to it. :)09:56

wood1by the way, what exactly does LVM do ?10:48
wood1Is it very useful ?10:48
(bob2/#ubuntu) xukun: no, sorry10:48
wood1Or can I just remove it10:48
billytwowillywood1, if you have more than 2-3 disks it can be usefull10:48
billytwowillyerr useful10:48
billytwowillyit can be used to join drives together10:49
wood1Well I only have 1 hard drive10:49
Chib1Are you trying to log into another SERVER from ubuntu, or trying to login to ubuntu from another OS?10:49
wood1Can I remove LVM from my system which has only 1 hard drive ?10:49

xukunwhat do you mean by that?10:52
wood1By the way, how do I login to my Ubuntu from other PCs in my network ?10:52
Chib1Perhaps the client version you're trying to connect with matters.10:52
xukunChib1, the version of nx is the same if that is what you mean10:53
xukunChib1, http://drcwww.uvt.nl/~ahassan/remote_nxserver_screenshot.png10:53
(bob2/#ubuntu) billytwowilly: no10:53
(bob2/#ubuntu) billytwowilly: also, be careful with lvm...if one of those disks die, you lose *all* your data10:53
wood1How do I open the FTP port of my Ubuntu system ?10:54
Chib1Eww! KDE ::hides::10:54
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: "open"? ubuntu has no firewall by default.10:54
xukunthat shoudnt mater10:54
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) bob2: I think he means installing an ftp daemon10:54
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: note that if you're using some sort of consumer dsl or cable router, you will not be able to serve ftp to outside users10:54
(bob2/#ubuntu) (easily)10:55
grelli"easily"10:55
wood1I can't Telnet and Ftp to my Ubuntu from other PCs10:55
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: did you install a ftp server?10:55
grellithe ease is determined by the level of insanity of the router10:55
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: also, don't use telnet. install openssh-server on your ubuntu machine and ssh in.10:55
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) wood1: and you want to ssh, not telnet10:55
wood1Well we have a very high speed internet connection10:55
(bob2/#ubuntu) grelli: forwarding ftp is really hard10:55
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) wood1: but you need to install an ssh server for that10:55

(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: if you didn't install one, you don't have one10:57
(bob2/#ubuntu) vsftpd is good for anonymous use10:57
xukunajmitch_, ubuntu is the server10:57
ajmitch_xukun: and you should be able to use nx from linux or windows to connect to it10:57
wood1Well what is the difference between Ftp, Telnet and OpenSsh ?10:57
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: ftp and telnet are old, broken and insecure10:58
(bob2/#ubuntu) ssh is a secure replacement for telnet, and sftp ccan be a secure replacement for ftp10:58
(bob2/#ubuntu) it might be easier if you just told us what your goal is10:58
xukunit would realy be nice to know if somebody else would connect usbuntu nxserver from other non ubuntu system10:58
wood1How do I install or configure my PC to be a SSH Server ?10:58
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: install openssh-server on your ubuntu machine and ssh in.10:58
grellixukun you can10:59
ajmitch_xukun: it's more of a firewall/configuration issue - I've only used nx to connect to my debian sid desktop so far :)10:59
wood1You mean just: ssh 10.10.10.x10:59
(bob2/#ubuntu) wood1: once you have installed the ssh server, yes10:59
xukunajmitch_, it does not connect, see the screenshot, that is how far I come. All I get is a dark desktop without any icons10:59
wood1And don't I have to select a port from the remote machine while ssh11:00
(bob2/#ubuntu) well, you can, but it defaults to 2211:00
xukunajmitch_, is has nothing to do with firewalling, I can connect other linux nxserver from every where in same network11:00
ajmitch_iirc the client specifies what is started on the server11:01
wood1Well ssh client is installed by default on any Ubuntu Systems right ?11:01
(Treenaks/#ubuntu) wood1: client is, server is not11:01
xukunajmitch_, did you tryied the other way around?11:01
ajmitch_xukun: nope, I don't have a useful working ubuntu install right now11:01
wood1So I just have to installed OpenSSH on the main machine ?11:01
ajmitch_since the kernel seems to have usb issues :)11:02
wood1I mean install "OpenSSH Server" on the main PC11:02
xukunajmitch_, that is the problem I,m having11:02
wood1apt-get install openssh-sever11:02
wood1Will that command install OpenSSH Server ?11:03
ajmitch_xukun: if you ssh into the server, do you see gnome processes running?11:03
xukunajmitch_, yes, I can even x forward11:04
ajmitch_I mean when you use nx11:05
ajmitch_connect, and then connect with ssh & check if the processes are started11:05

kentshould there be anything in /etc/network/ifstate or do the script write things there when they are running? i have things there (lo=lo, eth0=eth0) but my brother dont have anything there, and he always gets a failure while running /etc/init.d/network start :(02:15
(aj/#ubuntu) when ifup successfuly brings an interface up, it'll write lo=lo and similar, when it takes them down, it'll remove themn02:16
kentaj, do you know the syntax for bringing up lo and eth0 (with static IP) with ifconfig? we cant get the scripts to work, and realy need his eth0 to work so that he can copy an iso over to another computer.02:18
umanifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 up02:18
umanifconfig eth0 IP up02:18
kentuman, thanks.02:19
umanthat is if it "sees" eth002:19

riddleyI recently installed Ubuntu's AMD64 port and now I find that I'm unable to access windows XP via grub. I've been researching it this morning and the only suggestion I can find is to change the addressing style for my HD to LBA. When I do this, I get grub error 17. I thought that perhaps a re-install of grub might fix this, so I booted (with LBA) the rescue disk, mounted and chrooted to my environment and ran grub-install and it appeared to work, but e02:44

TongMasterNah, my problem is I come from part of Sydney that is too trusting and though I"ve been living in not-so-nice areas for two years, in the end, I'm still too comfortable leaving my stuff around, I' mjust glad I brought my laptop inside to copty the videos. The streets were so eerily empty when I cam out.04:24

(bob2/#ubuntu) Abercrombie: do you want to help find bugs?05:26

themulethats my point..05:26
wasabithemule: booting from teh CD is handled pruely by the BIOS probing for a bootloader from the CD, before it probes for a boot loader from the HD.05:26
wasabithemule: if your BIOS is not doing so, it has nothing to do with ubuntu.05:27
