speelyep but exeem is in the workings12:00
ajmitch_bluefoxicy: aha12:00
ajmitch_bluefoxicy: I just read some of those pages a few minutes ago :)12:00
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  There have been people working on security hardening Gentoo.  Those efforts are also being focused on Debian by another project.  They're also targetting Ubuntu12:01
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  I'm very interested in this stuff, so I've been watching them :)12:01

ajmitch_bluefoxicy: I'm interested in selinux integration work12:01
|QuaD-selinux integration?12:02
|QuaD-i thiunk i came in mid conversation12:02
gencocks12:02
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  I'm not really much interested in an enterprise-class SELinux policy, but I'm not opposed to it if it's done well enough that it doesn't put 5 more layers of visible cruft in front of the user12:02
=== telemaco [~telemaco@84.77.60.66] has joined #ubuntu
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  I think if there is an SELinux policy, there should at least be an option to give sysadmin_t role automagically if you su or login to root; of course, strictly speaking, this may not be the best idea (I am not an access control expert though).  I'm very lazy though :)12:03
bluefoxicyI don't want to talk about access control; I have no experience with SE/GR/RSBAC/LIDS, nor formal training, so I have nothing interesting and insightful to offer.12:04
ajmitch_even the strict policy allows direct transition to sysadm_t on login by root12:04
bluefoxicyinteresting.12:04
ajmitch_getting that working with sudo, su is more fun12:04
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  SE-X?12:04
speeldamn i cant login to the ubuntu site12:04
bluefoxicyspeel:  nor I12:04
ajmitch_fedora core 3 has a targetted policy that just limits certain daemons12:05
speeli forgot my pw and for some reason it times out when i try to reset it12:05
ajmitch_SE-X is being worked on, afaik12:05
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  interesting12:05
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  I'm fairly certain that the most painful is going to be getting PaX integrated :)12:05
ajmitch_if PaX is selected as the way to go12:06

bluefoxicyit's easy enough, except it's ubiquitous and will break incompatible third party software12:06
bluefoxicyof course, the breakage rate is very very low12:06
bluefoxicybut it happens12:06
ajmitch_but certain things like JVMs can hiccup on PaX :)12:06
bluefoxicyyes12:06
=== gpled [~worker@66.178.144.24] has joined #ubuntu
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  easy enough to fix with chpax (or paxctl if they have PT_PAX_FLAGS in them; pipacs said he could wire up paxctl to clobber the PT_GNU_STACK marking and alter the ELF header to change it to PT_PAX_FLAGS, since PT_GNU_STACK is useless under PaX)12:07
gpledi am trying to learn more about ubuntu.  looking at inittab, it looks to me, that ubuntu starts at runlevel 2.  is that correct?12:07
tomchukgpled: yup12:08
=== tvon|x31 [tvon@dsl093-119-225.blt1.dsl.speakeasy.net] has joined #ubuntu
bluefoxicyajmitch_:  the problem is that some things that break under PaX are outside ubuntu's main distribution.12:08

=== TongMaster [~TongMaste@157.besecure.net.au] has joined #ubuntu
ajmitch_and if they work on other distros, people will blame ubuntu12:08
bluefoxicyPersonally I think that since so few things actually have problems with PaX, that it'd be more rewarding to just enable full pax, hardmode, mark what breaks in Ubuntu's world, fix what you can, and let third party developers handle their own sih.t12:08
bluefoxicyWe're talking something liek 20 out of several thousand packages12:09

aerudercalendar01:01
Pozac|QuaD-, much!01:01
miausXoh oks :)01:01
|QuaD-Pozac: why?01:01
kebaceruin: he maintains quite a large web site...01:01
eruin|QuaD-, well, afaik the mozilla suite is dead01:01
ACID|netmiausX: Like what??? Apache, mysql etc?01:01
lexhiderquad: not a great deal, just a clean UI .01:01
Pozac|QuaD-, like debian and ubuntu ;)01:01
eruin|QuaD-, it's almost like comparing opera to using firefox/thunderbird though01:01
eruin;P01:01
aerudermozilla suite is not dead01:01
|QuaD-eruin: its not dead01:01
eruinmozillas default browser is firefox, anyway01:02
Pozac|QuaD-, mozilla is the old stuff that helped create the architecture, firefox, thunderbird and sunbird are made for the people :)01:02
miausXACID|net: apache, mysql, vsftpd, bind, cups, samba, sshd, postfix, squirrelmail, dhcpd, ntpd, and iptables :D01:02
|QuaD-Pozac: I don't think you are right, from my understanding, sunbird is jsut a standalone mozilla calc01:02
|QuaD-*calendar01:02
|QuaD-and same with thunderbird01:02
eruin|QuaD-, yes. in mozillasuite you get everything, while the birds and foxes are standalone things01:03
miausXACID|net: it's only an idea... run services = install packages, fight with configuration files, compile the kernel... etc01:03
Pozacso they finally merged?01:03
lexhiderquad: sunbird is still a fair way away from a 1.0 unlike firefox and thunderbird.01:03

Pozacoh01:03
ACID|netmiausX: So get them setup on one distro, check its all working then do it all over again with another??? (more or less)01:03
Pozacall for the better i suppose01:04
eruinwhich is why firefox is splashed all over mozilla.org front :P01:04

Pozacwith all the distros01:05
tux_ACID|net, Damnsmall will work on it01:05
|QuaD-eruin: so mozilla suit has firefox and thunderbird?01:05

eruin|QuaD-, no01:05
miausXfeather*01:05
|QuaD-eruin: i meant the equivalent01:05
curvycomI'm fairly new to linux, using Ubuntu, can anyone suggest a good gui daemon manager?01:05
eruin|QuaD-, mozilla _suite_ is the same old mozilla browser / mozilla mail, etc01:05
eruinbut the browser focused on by mozilla is now firefox01:06
|QuaD-so mozilla suite is old?01:06
miausXcurvycom: hum... I use console + vim... but did you try webmin?01:06
PozacI never quite understood why services-admin was left out.01:06
eruinI think theres a roadmap or something on mozilla.org that explains that01:06
|QuaD-eruin: i was looking for something01:06
|QuaD-couldn't find anything01:06
|QuaD-imho, thunderbird and sunbird should be seemlessly integrated01:07
Pozacimho, I don't care.01:07
PozacEvolution takes the cake.01:07
|QuaD-Pozac: i didn't like evolution01:07
|QuaD-i like kpim :(01:07
eruinI think firefox,thunderbird and sunbirds main seelingpoint is that theyre standalone01:07
curvycommiausX not yet, but I'm a newbee as I say.  THis system is great tho, it does every thing I need on my laptop.  I just thought a GUI based daemon manager might be a good learning tool for me.01:08
miausXhum, imho evolution has too much things, I like thunderbird (more simple)01:08
curvycomthanks01:08
eruinwhile if you really must have a monolithic environment, you use the suite01:08
|QuaD-eruin: yeah.... but i want my contacts integrated with my calendar, no?01:08
eruinand thunderbird/firefox has some cross-functionality if I'm not mistaken01:08

thullyHi - I have tried both Hoary and Warty on this laptop, and I've noticed Hoary's fonts are much better.  What did they do?  Can I get those fonts on Warty?04:10
hazza96Fonts are always getting better04:11
lexhiderI dont' know, but I doubt they have yet04:11
netsplitCan broadcast be always: [(~ netmask) | ip]  ?04:11
thullyIs it the font, or the default rendering system - since Warty's fonts look like slightly-better-than-average-Linux fonts, while Hoary's fonts look like Mac OS X fonts04:11
lexhiderthully, may be due to xorg?04:12
thullyat least on my laptops - desktops use different font rendering systems04:12
mdkeyep i think so too04:12
bob2it's not due to xorg04:12
bob2and laptops and desktops both use freetype for font rendering04:12
bob2|QuaD|: a variety of services04:12
|QuaD|bob2: care to expand on that?04:12

occyany diff gods here?  I've got two directories...  dir1  dir2   both have mostly the same thing.  (they were identical at one time)  they are on different computers.  I want to find out what has changed in dir1  and in dir2  and what I need to copy out of them into a new dir3  so I have all things synced and in order.04:15
jlundOr would this be stupid :)04:15
bob2|QuaD|: support and such, and some other interesting things in the pipeline...04:15
bob2jlund: well, yes, but note that the universe packages are unsupported04:15
|QuaD|bob2: ohh ok04:15
bob2occy: unison can create that 3rd dir for you04:15
jlundbob2: I know but I am having a weird problem04:15
occybob2: k, /me looks04:16
jlundbob2: With Universe enabled I am seeing upgrades to packages that are not in Universe. So far I haven't installed anything from it but it still has upgrades when Universe repositories are enabled. When they are not enabled no upgrades are marked.04:16
jlundStrange eh?04:16
bob2jlund: for example?04:17
jlundmount04:17
jlundmount shows latest as 2.12k without universe but then 2.12l with universe04:17
bob2erm, very odd04:17
jlundAll of my Python 2.3 packages as well04:17
bob2in hoary or warty?04:18
jlundThis is hoary04:18
bob2I only see one version of mount in hoary04:18
jlundwhich?04:18
bob2 *** 2.12k-2ubuntu1 004:19
bob2        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com hoary/main Packages04:19
jlundhm, so maybe later versions are in Universe?04:19
jlundBecause k is what I saw as well without Universe enabled04:19
bob2no04:19
bob2mount is not in universe04:19
jlundWell now I've got version l installed04:19

bob2occy: ok.04:27
LLMill try it04:27
bob2occy: it will make dir1 and dir2 into dir304:27
jlundoccy: what if you just did this. ls -al > dir1.txt then ls -al > dir2.txt04:27
jlundoccy: then just run diff dir1.txt dir2.txt04:27
jlundThat will show you what is different04:27
bob2jlund: that's not what occy is trying to do04:28
jlundYou would of course do the ls commands in the different directories04:28

jlundIs it possible that Synaptic is caching the old stuff when I turn Universe off?04:30

andrewif there is a security hole in a package in universe, am i stuck with this package?06:56
crimsunyes.06:57
DkoIf libsdl1.2debian and libsdl1.2debian-oss are both got green boxes next to them snynaptic it means there installed right?06:57
crimsungranted, if it's from universe, chances are it's from sid's pool, and sid gets package fixes rather quickly.06:57
crimsun(though not as quickly as woody or warty)06:57
andrewso in that case compiling from source would be the only option?06:57
andrewcrimsun: ok so you can use unstable package?06:58
andrew(s06:58
andrew)06:58
bob2not generally06:59
ryanmcgregorcrimsun: i think what he is asking is if it is fixed in sid, will the ubuntu team add the fixed package to universe06:59
bob2not for warty06:59
crimsunfor hoary, sometimes the fixed package is available in universe sooner than in sid06:59
andrewok.  so if i want to stay secure with unstable packages, i should subscribe to debian-security-announce to hear when there are vulnerabilities in unstable as well?07:00
andrewer, the first "unstable" should be "universe"07:01
crimsunnormally security announcements are prioritized for 'stable' packages07:01
DkoAlright. SDL seams to be installed. But I get this error when I try to install Eternal Lands. error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_net-1.2.so.0:07:01
andrewyea07:01
crimsunif they happen to affect packages in 'unstable', too, then it's a note in the DSA07:01
bob2d-s-a doesn't have advisories for packages in sid07:01
ryanmcgregoris the ubuntu team going to add more packages to the main branch then....cause it is rather limited at the moment07:02

andrewi mostly use totem, mozilla-firefox, emacs, open-office, gaim, xchat, and python for apps.07:03
andrewthinking about switching to ubuntu07:03
ryanmcgregorif it doesnt have the ubuntu symbol in synaptic, it is not in the main branch, right?07:04
bob2no idea, I don't use synaptic07:04
andrewubuntu main is actually a good selection of apps07:07
andrewdoesn't have all the little exotic things, but still it has a lot07:07
calcmissing useful stuff like clamav ;)07:07
calcalso gstreamer totem is about useless07:08
bob2due to patent issues07:08
ryanmcgregorok, here goes: abiword (i like it for small files as i am on a slow computer), digikam, gpdf, guarddog (i hate firestarter), kooka (xsane is confusing), a bunch of libraries needed for nvu to install, a bunch of libraries needed for mplayer to compile, xawtv, xmms-skins to name a few07:08
calcpatent issues that even an overzealous group like debian ignore07:08
DkoGehh. ><  apt-get install doesn't work. It doens't seam to be a normal pakage.07:09
bob2debian doesn't have a suable company07:09

mike_dougla1andrew: I built gtk2 emacs-cvs packages if you want them. A lot better on the eyes (without having to run it in gnome-terminal)07:09
bob2calc: no, debian-legal ignores patents almost entirely07:09
calcand fhg is suing lots of mp3 decoder companies07:09
bob2ryanmcgregor: none of those seem support=critical07:09
bob2er, s/=/-/07:09
calcbob2: is that why most patented stuff isn't in debian like lame, ffmpeg, etc?07:09
bob2calc: mpeg-4 and mp3 are enforced patents07:10
ryanmcgregorbob2: what about guarddog....or is updating iptables good enough?07:10
bob2calc: probably every single bit of software in main violates some patent07:10
DkoIt basically says it can't find the package libsdl-net1.207:10

miggumike16?07:38
fabbioneiirc it should be possible to install with 16Mb of ram07:38
crimsunyou can do it with 16, but you must create swap as soon as parted udeb is loaded.07:38
ajdebian needs 32ish i think, ubuntu'd be similar probably; 64-128 would be safer07:38
crimsunit is possible, I tested several weeks ago07:38

moriddinwhats the grub/lilo boot loader?08:13
davydtrukulo: except for the older stuff, which boots straight into the System folder08:13
trukulodavyd, umm, i'm not sure, i'll believe you08:14
moriddinis it in the ubuntu CD rom?08:14
davydmoriddin: it's a piece of software that resides in the mbr, you can install it from the CD rom08:14
moriddinum ok, i install it through windows then?08:14
davydif you boot the installer CD and select your lanaguage and then press cancel you well get the main install menu08:14
anirogra: marillat08:14
davydmoriddin: no08:14
davydmoriddin: once you have the main install menu, you need to do things like detect your hardware, and perhaps some other things, then it will offer you the option of installing the boot loader08:15
ograanir: its in the middle of the resricted formats page08:15
davydmoriddin: you don't need to reinstall08:15
davydtrukulo: when you're next on a mac, press Ctrl-Apple-O-F08:15

davyd(I think that's the right combo)08:15
dasdasthis is very serious stuff08:15

trukulodasdas: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q166454/08:16
moriddindavyd: ok. now lets say i;d like to boot windows sometime later on, how do i do that?08:17
davydmoriddin: I think you just need to run the detect hardware step, and then it will offer the bootloader step08:17
davydmoriddin: you can add it to the list in GRUB08:17
davydor lilo08:17
hob1so i was using this mail-programme, THE BAT, and maybe some of u knwo how to import my mails and folder to evolution..?08:17
davydthe setup files have examples for doign it08:17
moriddindavyd: and how do i see that list?08:17
davydmoriddin: it's either /etc/grub.conf or /etc/lilo.conf depending on which you're using08:17
moriddindavyd: alright.. so if i add windows to the grub/lilo, then ill be able to choose an operating system when i boot my comp?08:18
davydGRUB can boot many operating systems, which is why it's useful, unlike say the Windows bootloader which can boot windows08:18

jbroomeapt-get and semi-porn11:47
Pozaca 16 mb stage 1 gentoo install cd will do the trick11:47
Pozacor a floppy if you still got the drive11:48
noobyes i have a floppy drive11:48
noobwould i always have to boot with a floppy now, or it will create a new boot record like before?11:48

noobok, can you point me where i could find a boot disk11:49
neighborleeyeah I love that design...it rocks11:49
nooband ill try to find out how to re-create my boot record11:50
PozacI'm not sure, haven't used one for ages..11:50
neighborleenoob: you dont need boot disk11:50
neighborleenoob: at least you shouldn't..just boot with livecd and use 'rescue' mode11:50
Pozache hasn't got the livecd11:50
neighborleenoob: once there you re-run lilo and install it to your harddrive MBR11:50
noobok11:50
neighborleePozac, easier if he just grabs it and uses it11:50
ograneighborlee: no lilo on ubuntu11:50
noobthan i think ill wait to have back my cd11:50
noobill ask it back , ghope to have it soon, i had some new stuff to try and learn :)11:51

neighborleeogra: i presume livecd has rescue mode for him to fix this righth ?11:52
noob<neighborlee> : do you know how i could do it with a floppy?11:52
PozacI wonder why grub was chosen.. I find lilo much better11:52
Pozachey f11:52
ograneighborlee: nope.... not this release i think11:52
neighborleeditto..I find lilo easier actually..grub is confusing LOL11:52
neighborleeogra: k thx11:52
neighborleenoob: then you do not want livecd11:52
noobOk, but when i'll have my cd back, what do i do, only put it in, boot on cd and thats it11:52
ograPozac: because you cant edit your lilo.conf brfore booting.... with grub xou can ;)11:52
calcusing grub from a floppy is pretty easy11:52
neighborleenoob: unless you want to show off ubuntu to friend then by all means!!11:53
noobwhat is livecd, is it my ubuntu cd?11:53
neighborleenoob: special cd that runs from cd and doesn't require installation11:53
neighborleenoob: not recommended but for on the move and showing off to converts <G>11:53
noobit's not my ubuntu cd?11:53
neighborleeno11:53
nooblol, sorry, im a bit mixed up :)11:53
neighborleenoob: no biggie11:53
Pozacogra, true.. I only use it to correct the drive (stupid naming system) :)11:54
dagronthere is a LiveCD and an install-cd. LiveCD is only the preview of what it will be like when it's newly installed.11:54

noobok, but can I use my ubuntu install cd to create a new boot record?11:55
dagronlike Knopix. you don't have to install Ubuntu to run the livecd.11:55
noobor i have to use a liveCd11:55
noobif so, ill try to find a livecd cause i dont have one11:55
noobi only have the ubuntu install  cd11:55
dagronI have seriosly no idea. how can you have trouble with ubuntu?11:55
PozacCan't he just chroot into his old system and run that grub?11:55
Pozacthat would be totally easy11:55
neighborleenoob: I've done it before but with FC cd11:55
dagronsweet.11:56
neighborleenoob: knooppix may work dunno...but I know FC cd works by going into whats called 'rescue mode'11:56
noobdagron, i dont really have prob, i reinstall win xp on my primary hd, and it kill my boot record , so now i cant boot on my sec. hd11:56
dagronthat sucks dude :S11:56
noobyrp11:56
noobi really dont know how to do this11:56
neighborleenoob: for that you only need disk#1 of FC..as I say knoppix may do it I dont know...but I know FC does...11:57
dagronformat /dev/hda2 ?11:57
mdkenoob, you could try the ubuntu install cd i guess. But be careful :)11:57
mdkenoob, otherwise any live cd will do: knoppix, gnoppix, gentoo etc11:57
noobmdke, yep that what i thoug, but i hope not to erase my linux11:57
noobdamn microsoft windows :P11:58
mdkenoob, kill windows11:58
