| Madpilot | WebLOCH: Ksensors has an odd over-complicated UI - it is a KDE app, after all, but you should be able to get it to display CPU temp, MB temp, etc etc - all sorts of data... | 12:39 |
| GnarlyBob | is there any reason why the ubuntu install would bomb out failing to find tar? | 12:39 |
| Madpilot | Shadyman: build-essential | 12:39 |
| WebLOCH | Madpilot, xsensor shows me two tabs, labelled EEPROM, both of which report data on my ram, but nothing else | 12:39 |

| dabaR | GnarlyBob: what? your install does not work? | 12:41 |
| Shadyman | Is it just me, or does KDE just crash because it likes to? | 12:41 |
| GnarlyBob | dabaR: correct | 12:41 |
| GnarlyBob | installing the base system... installing core packages... and in /var/log/messages (not /target/var/log/bootstrap.log, as it indicates) is shown "dpkg-deb (subprocess): failed to exec tar: no such file or directory" | 12:41 |

| GnarlyBob | hmm, I don't recall seeing that option, I will check again... but it's identical on the second of 5 breezy cd's shipped from canonical | 12:42 |

| WebLOCH | Madpilot, my Sys Inf tab shows me some system panels, which are CPU Speed, State, RAM, SWAP and Uptime | 12:43 |

| randabis | I like prattling | 02:45 |
| WebLOCH | randabis, so do i, but i like having working temperature sensors more | 02:45 |
| randabis | sempron is usually a k7 | 02:45 |
| randabis | sometimes they are k8 derivatives | 02:45 |
| cafuego | Shadyman: k7 | 02:46 |
| randabis | depends | 02:46 |

| cafuego | Coz Ubuntu64 isn't qute there yet, like PPC. | 02:46 |

| ubotu | hmm... easysource is For an easy to use custom sources.list configurator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic | 02:47 |

| poimen | I think it has 256 or more | 02:48 |
| cafuego | poimen: In that case it'll run xubuntu very well. | 02:49 |
| lightbright | can Ubuntu be affected by emails that contain phising and trojans? If I read all my emails, can I be affected by key loggers etc? | 02:49 |
| Shadyman | cafuego: O RLY? | 02:49 |
| lightbright | cafuego: any ideas? | 02:49 |
| randabis | cafuego heck it would probably even run kubuntu...my 450mhz p3 with 192 mb of ram does hehe | 02:49 |
| poimen | xubuntu? | 02:50 |
| cafuego | randabis: Yes, but there's a difference between "running" and 'running well'. | 02:50 |
| Shadyman | heh | 02:50 |
| cafuego | poimen: xubuntu is Ubuntu with XFCE. | 02:50 |
| Shadyman | !xfce | 02:50 |
| ubotu | methinks xfce is a lightweight Desktop Environment that uses GTK. to install, "sudo apt-get install xfce4" or "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". http://www.xfce.org/ | 02:50 |
| paulproteus|lapt | lightbright: No, unless those key loggers/trojans are specifically written for Linux. | 02:50 |
| paulproteus|lapt | And even then, perhaps not. | 02:50 |
| factotum | there is also a difference between running and crashing, in that case anything will work | 02:50 |
| Shadyman | whoa | 02:50 |
| randabis | cafuego I would venture to say it runs well | 02:50 |
| lightbright | paulproteus|lapt: ok | 02:50 |
| paulproteus|lapt | lightbright: As for phishing, you should always be careful of phishing. | 02:50 |
| pashaw | lightbright, no neither can windows unless your email client auto opens attachments | 02:50 |
| sproingie | lightbright: there's no viruses in the wild that target linux. if you run a webserver, there's some active threats. your email is pretty safe. | 02:50 |
| lightbright | paulproteus|lapt: is there a way to check my system for such things? | 02:51 |
| toya_ | what do you guys use for rss? | 02:51 |
| paulproteus|lapt | lightbright: Phishing is emails that claim to be from your bank but aren't. | 02:51 |
| cafuego | randabis: I have a 350MHz iMac with 128Mb that just can't. | 02:51 |
| paulproteus|lapt | toya_: Thunderbird. | 02:51 |
| pashaw | lightbright, or gets redirected by html linux is still safe there | 02:51 |
| lightbright | pashaw: when reading an email, does that automiatically open the atttachment? | 02:51 |
| sproingie | toya_: sage | 02:51 |
| pashaw | lightbright, NO | 02:51 |
| paulproteus|lapt | lightbright: No, it doesn't automatically open attachments. | 02:51 |

| pashaw | lightbright, opps banged keyboard didnt mean to use caps | 02:51 |
| HymnToLife | lightbright > only Outlook is stupid enough to do it :p | 02:51 |
| lightbright | cause I read all emails. but never save or open attachments! so should I be safe? | 02:51 |
| Shadyman | lightbright: Yes, unless you follow links that claim to be your bank or something | 02:52 |
| lightbright | paulproteus|lapt: is there a way to check my system for such things? | 02:52 |
| Shadyman | :) | 02:52 |
| sproingie | toya_: sage is a very thin rss/atom client for firefox, it renders feeds and newsletter sheets in firefox, that's about it | 02:52 |
| lightbright | Shadyman: ok ty | 02:52 |
| randabis | cafuego yeah I don't know why it runs it so well...I do have to watch how many things I'm running at once though | 02:52 |

| lightbright | paulproteus|lapt: I use root kit hunter, is that enough? | 02:52 |
| paulproteus|lapt | lightbright: "Phishing" is just another word for "fraud", okay? | 02:52 |

| pashaw | from memory, wine is a compatibility layer used by linux to let it run (some) windows programs. It's available in universe but a more recent version can be installed by adding "deb http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/ binary/" to your sources.list.

| navarone | panana...more ram the better...since adding additional 256mb ram I have not touched swap | 04:26 |

| _jeff | centogg: so if i bleach it enough it will come out completely white? | 04:26 |
| Shadyman | ElitePete: You'd have to format it, because it uses microsoft's encrypted FAT-type | 04:26 |
| sethk | WebLOCH, but what I meant was, you didn't kill it, regardless of what you may think | 04:26 |
| ElitePete | Shadyman, that should be easy enough | 04:26 |

| WebLOCH | says 'system' which indicated fs | 04:57 |
| sethk | WebLOCH, no, it doesn't indicate anything of the sort | 04:57 |
| sethk | WebLOCH, for example, ext2, ext3 will show as linux | 04:57 |
| owner | ubuntu is usually ext 3 | 04:57 |

| WebLOCH | sethk, you are saying that the word "System" is NOT indicative of "Filesystem" | 04:58 |
| sethk | WebLOCH, for the third time, yes, that is what I'm saying | 04:58 |

| WebLOCH | sethk thats just plain counter intuitive | 04:58 |
| sethk | WebLOCH, so? | 04:59 |
| owner | whats the best file system | 04:59 |
| WebLOCH | sethk, thats what i was trying to say | 04:59 |
| nalioth | owner: they each have their pros and cons, it depends on what you're gonna do with the system | 04:59 |
| sethk | WebLOCH, ok | 04:59 |
| owner | which one do you like the best nalioth | 04:59 |
| nalioth | owner: i use ext3 | 04:59 |
| owner | what about reiserfs | 05:00 |
| sethk | owner, I've found reiserfs to be unreliable | 05:00 |
| Amaranth | reiserfs is a nice idea with a poor implementation | 05:00 |

| majiklantrn | ilba7r, what? | 05:51 |
| GnarlyBob | admash: I've gotten to the point where installation of base system craps out trying to find tar | 05:51 |
| ilba7r | anyone know how to view m4v video file | 05:51 |
| GnarlyBob | had that on 2 of the 5 breezy cd's sent from canonical | 05:51 |
| admash | GnarlyBob, Where did you get your iso? | 05:51 |
| regeya_ | anything in the Inbox is actionable until I sort it. I find that people tend to send me things in a totally random way so filters do me no good. | 05:51 |
| ilba7r | majiklantm you asked about PCI-e | 05:51 |
| majiklantrn | GnarlyBob, scratch on disk? | 05:51 |
| GnarlyBob | none visible | 05:51 |
| majiklantrn | ilba7r, oh.. Yeah.. I think T43 has PCI-E.. that could be a performace Hog. | 05:52 |
| regeya_ | ilba7r, I'm assuming that's an mpeg4 video...xine, totem-xine, mplayer... | 05:52 |
| intelikey | vlc | 05:52 |
| Shadyman | what about the invisible ones? | 05:52 |
| GnarlyBob | somebody mentioned that there is an option in the install to verify the media, but I can't find it | 05:52 |
| regeya_ | or vlc... | 05:52 |
| Shadyman | it's always the invisible scratches that get you. | 05:52 |
| ilba7r | regeya will try again thanx | 05:52 |
| majiklantrn | GnarlyBob, Try copying the whole CD to a HDD.. see if it gets stuck. | 05:52 |
| admash | GnarlyBob, Ah. I had problems with an iso downloaded via BitTorrent. Downloaded direct and it worked great. Coulda been a scratched cd though. dunno. | 05:52 |
| nalioth | GnarlyBob: after you enter your language and the first couple of things, hit "esc" and choose verify | 05:52 |
| majiklantrn | Installation Failures suck. | 05:53 |
| ilba7r | gmplayer did the trick. Strange totem did not though i have totem-xine | 05:53 |
| GnarlyBob | actually, that is just the last of a series of extremely frustrating install issues, many of which date back years and are indigenous to any debian-based distro | 05:53 |

| Shadyman | x.conf i think | 06:03 |
| sethk | franky123, then it believes either that your card can't do better, or your monitor can't do better. Did it detect the new monitor? | 06:03 |
| Shadyman | yeah that's the one | 06:03 |
| majiklantrn | psusi, Did you do it with an apt-get or compile the source? | 06:03 |

| psusi | Jeeves_moss, you will need to figure out exactly what this "smartstart" does to get the kernel to see the raid... it may just load a kernel module... in that case, you need to get that module into the initrd | 06:24 |

| odat | crimsun, k thanx | 06:34 |
| psusi | Jeeves_moss, I'll bet $5 that it loads the kernel module that talks to the raid hardware | 06:34 |
| psusi | Jeeves_moss, and since that module isn't in your initrd, the kernel can't talk to the raid hardware when you reboot | 06:35 |
| Jeeves_moss | rabbit: unless you see smoke running out the side of your laptop, then don't worry about it. My Toshiba Sta 20 does that. its a pain in the ass. Once the system boots, it "flashes" the power to the card. Then you have to either physicaly turn it off and on again, or just tell the OS to reboot it. One thing you might do if the actual hardware is resetting it see if you can configure the card as a hotplugable card so the OS wil | 06:35 |
| tuv | crimsun: yes.. it is working with my pasted interfaces as is.. the map part of the mapping is obviously for passing parmaters to the script, which i don't need. i just had to replace network with netmask in the static part.. thanks man | 06:35 |

| zozvozozo | can i not get and install dev-essentials (or build-essentials) via Adept? | 06:38 |
| Jeeves_moss | rabbit: yes, the OS will poll the card every once and a while to see if its still attached, and if it sees that its re-attached, it reinstalls it into the system. No need to keep rebooting the card in the OS | 06:38 |

| nopea | Jeeves_moss, cool - yesterday I tried this trick where I plugged my Fiber Optic modem into a hub then the old PC into the hub and connected with PPPoE thru the hub, all other PCs at home (2) connected to the hub could access the net (thru a NAT) - wondered if thats normal | 06:52 |

| h4x | a note to room. I had trouble with ubuntu, it would freeze for about 15 seconds in intervals of about 45 seconds. The system was fairly old, It only had 256mb of ram and it had no FANS! (after a terrible modding accident.) The problem was, that the cpu got so hot that it would have a "heart attack" and lock up. I bought some fans today, as well as some more ram. (it now has a gig). Everything works fine now :) | 06:52 |
| bob_4_a_day | cause more is just less than less.... | 06:53 |

| Jeeves_moss | rabbit: I'll look @ it in a sec. one thing you can do it create multi profiles for it so all you'd have to do is type ifconfig up <card profile> and it'll read the part of the file that has the right configuration for your card | 06:53 |

| nopea | Jeeves_moss, I should be more clear - I have the old PC connected to my ISP with PPoE - which goes from the NIC on the old PC to the hub, then to the fiber modem. The PPPoE dialer has a firewall on it. The other PCs connect to the old PC (server) via the hub, and all Internet requests go thru the NAT on the old PC (server). Sorry if that makes no sense ;-) | 06:56 |

| Jeeves_moss | nopea: as long as your ISP's nic has its own IP (non internal to your network), and you have your internal network on a differn't subnet, then you should be fine. The NAT preforms the netowrk hop (to the differen't subnet), so in theroy, if the "router" gets hacked, it'll take a while to get over to the other netowrk. you need to make sure that if the router is compermised that its a "fail open" network connection. | 07:01 |

| intelikey | antoni_NT if the modem is 56k and it connects at 14k it is probably a physical problem with the line service or your connections in your home. possably too much crap connected to the phone line upstream the pc. | 08:39 |
| linux_galore | intelikey: no the Linuxant free driver is crippled to work at 14.4 you need the $$$ download version to get the full 56k | 08:40 |

| intelikey | llama32 it is not very likely that you will have much success installing from the live cd. if that is the only option. mount the hard drive partition and copy all files over then pivot root and install a boot loader | 09:47 |
| Amaranth | intelikey: The live cd is customized for that environment, it will _suck_ as an installed system. | 09:47 |

| Stormx2 | lol | 11:38 |
| LinuxKnight | SmerdyKoV_, you don't necessaryily need to- leave unpartitioned space, and set it up during the linux install | 11:38 |
| Stormx2 | >.< | 11:38 |
| mendy | I see so I'm stuck with only burning cd's | 11:38 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | oh i see | 11:39 |
| mendy | Ok Maybe I'll have a look on the forum if anyone talks about it | 11:39 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | I was under the impression it was necessary | 11:39 |
| intelikey | no. but you need some one else to help you. | 11:39 |
| mendy | Who? You changed colors! | 11:39 |
| SweetestSavage | holycow, Stormx2, got it working. Thanks guys | 11:39 |
| mendy | It's still you,though.(?) | 11:40 |
| LinuxKnight | SmerdyKoV_, for dual boot- install windows first, leaving extra unpartitioned space at the *end* of the drive (windows has to be at the beginning) | 11:40 |
| === Silencer [n=Silencer@82.208.215.13] has joined #ubuntu | ||
| Stormx2 | before installing its a good idea to resize a partition so you have unallocated space. Or you can do it in the installer, but it is a little crummy with NTFS resizing | 11:40 |
| LinuxKnight | SmerdyKoV_, then run the linux installer, and it can format the unpartitioned space for linux | 11:40 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | indeed | 11:40 |
| intelikey | no mendy it's your irc client picking up on your name. | 11:40 |
| intelikey | see | 11:40 |
| intelikey | mendy | 11:40 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | ah I see | 11:40 |
| intelikey | see | 11:40 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | it sounds so easy on here | 11:40 |
| LinuxKnight | much better to format linux partitions in linux installer than in windows (can't do it anyway) | 11:40 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | but when I try | 11:40 |
| SmerdyKoV_ | my poor computer will be pwnd | 11:40 |

| sudo_smartass | Fing right doggie!!! stormx... ur my new best buddy | 11:41 |
| Stormx2 | Resize your current partition in windows to leave unallocated space, then from the installer select "Automaticly partition free space". That'll give you ext3 and a swap partition | 11:41 |
| sudo_smartass | hey... does ubuntu have something about fixing the sound card? | 11:41 |

| FHX | I'm stuck at the partitions setup | 12:07 |
| intelikey | holycow there was misunderstand there | 12:07 |
| kemik | holycow: all you need is a good recoveryprogram | 12:07 |
| FHX | .. | 12:07 |
| FHX | I'm stuck at the partitions step, in which they only allow me one option: to manually edit tables | 12:08 |
| Stormx2 | ROBOd: Theres no "back" option | 12:08 |
| FHX | I don't have any other options, and there are no other previous partitions showing nor any disk space | 12:08 |
| FHX | That is my problem. I cannot mov eforward | 12:08 |
| FHX | so how do I move back? | 12:08 |
| Stormx2 | And theres no "Automaticly partition free space" option? | 12:08 |
| kemik | FHX: manually edit them :) you need a / and a swap | 12:08 |
| holycow | kemik, true that is possible | 12:08 |
| FHX | Nope, no such option | 12:08 |
| Stormx2 | Yeah | 12:08 |
| FHX | kemik - How do I manually edit them? | 12:08 |
| Stormx2 | just make a ext3 partition and a swap partition | 12:08 |
| maswan | how do I make an animated screenshot of an xterm? | 12:08 |
| FHX | when I enter it, it only gives me 6 options or so. | 12:08 |
| intelikey | FHX if you can't get linux to partition the disk i might sujest, running badblocks on the drive with write test. | 12:09 |
| FHX | I can't make an ypartitions!! | 12:09 |
| FHX | No space detected | 12:09 |
| Stormx2 | eek | 12:09 |
| FHX | No partitions detected | 12:09 |
| kemik | that's worse | 12:09 |
| FHX | Yes. | 12:09 |
| Stormx2 | >.< | 12:09 |
| intelikey | yes. so run badblocks on it. | 12:09 |
| FHX | badblocks? | 12:09 |
| intelikey | a disk testing utility | 12:09 |
| FHX | ... | 12:09 |
| FHX | Okay, how do I undo all of this? | 12:09 |
| FHX | What is the best way right now to fix this space partitioning mess? | 12:10 |
| Shibby | How do I enable the console in MPlayer? | 12:10 |
| FHX | I clearly cannot move forward, which means I have to go back and clean up the entire system. | 12:10 |
| FHX | so that it's brand new. | 12:10 |
| FHX | How can I do that? | 12:10 |
| mintonman | anyone know how to get ubuntu to offer me kde at login (I installed kubuntu-desktop, but I still get gnome only) | 12:10 |
| kemik | FHX: seems your drive is a bit fubar | 12:10 |
| FHX | .. | 12:10 |
| kemik | FHX: make sure it's recognized in BIOS? | 12:10 |
| holycow | Shibby, what do you mean enable console? you can access mplayer from console any time | 12:10 |
| FHX | No root recognized. | 12:11 |
| bimberi | mintonman: kde should be an option in the Sessions menu of the login screen | 12:11 |

| kemik | FHX: it's not detected in BIOS? the disk i mean ? | 12:11 |

| Stormx2 | s/fix it/make things worse | 12:13 |
| FHX | .. | 12:13 |
| intelikey | FHX i gave you a sulution. well a direction. boot the install cd alt+f2 and type badblocks /dev/hda | 12:13 |
| kemik | intelikey: actually the reason i used linux to begin with was to circumvent my old bios max 30gb disk size ... some years ago :) | 12:13 |
| FHX | intelikey: I don't understand it | 12:13 |
| Stormx2 | follow intelikey's advice | 12:13 |

| holycow | Shibby, you can write a bash script to get mplayer to do whatever you want | 12:13 |

| Stormx2 | ... | 12:15 |
| Stormx2 | you sure you booted the CD and not grub? | 12:15 |
| FHX | what i did is i booted with the install cd | 12:15 |
| intelikey | FHX boot and after it boots and wants you to select language use alt+f2 | 12:15 |
| FHX | yeah, the install cd. | 12:15 |

| FHX | ok | 12:15 |
| holycow | Shibby, i have no idea what that even means | 12:15 |
| Stormx2 | xD holycow | 12:16 |
| intelikey | then in the console that alt+f2 puts you in run badblocks /dev/hda | 12:16 |
| holycow | Shibby, it sounds like you want mplayer to do something with a single media file? | 12:16 |
| FHX | ok | 12:16 |

| trappist | dbcalo: the problem is that the modules necessary to mount a usb drive are on the filesystem and not in the kernel or the initrd, so it wants to mount the root filesystem to GET those modules, but of course it can't. an alternative solution would be to build your own kernel with all that stuff built in. | 08:47 |
| Kovecses | conrad_, oh your trying to make a vcd | 08:47 |

| crimsun | dbcalo: if you're comfortable adding the necessary modules to /etc/mkinitramfs/modules and then regenerating it, that's the method. | 08:49 |
| Kovecses | conrad_, vcd's only support mpeg... but if you want to burn just the avi.. if your dvd player supports avi just burn as data cd... or you could use tovid to convert the avi to vcd | 08:49 |

| alan__ | and how to access it | 10:21 |

| Kovecses | conrad_, the repos worked for me bud | 10:21 |
| conrad_ | kovecses: i was at the kirya website exactly | 10:22 |
| hunger | alan__: Try fdisk -l /dev/hda. That pints the partition table of the drive. | 10:22 |
| dabaR | alan__: it is likely the hdb(whole drive) has 3 partitions, and use "sudo fdisk -l" to find out more. and paste to paste.ubuntu-nl.org, not here. | 10:22 |

| Kovecses | mount /dev/hda | 10:28 |
| hunger | john_: Good! Have you tried adding that to /etc/fstab? That is a table which lists all the filesystems the system knows (and only those can be mounted at bootup). | 10:28 |
| ITSa341 | pashaw tried that also before I came in here bugging people. But, thanks for trying. I can live without 3d acceleration....for now LOL | 10:28 |

| korptix\a | .. | 10:28 |
| dabaR | alan__: it is set into partitions, you will not be mounting hda itself, but one of hdaX | 10:28 |
| sethk | alan__, typically hda is a partitioned device and you would not mount it | 10:28 |
| dabaR | alan__: and tell us what is on it. | 10:28 |
| sethk | alan__, you would mount, say, hda1 | 10:28 |

| nalioth | ElitePete: gksudo gedit. use gksudo to open gui gnome apps and kdesu to open kde apps as superuser. doing it otw can scramble your permissions | 11:45 |

| `Nomad | Hi.. Could someone help me with installing a Samsung Printer driver in Kubuntu, KDE 3.5? I'm missing a simple permission issue with CUPS I think | 11:51 |
| `Nomad | I have a Samsung ML-2010 that comes with it's own drivers.. Using their install, I get prompted for an admin password while trying to add the printer.. I can't get that authentication accepted to continue. | 11:51 |
| UbuntuNewbie | I am having **so** much trouble trying to set up a dual-boot partition. My primary boot partition is 200GB NTFS; supposing I want 20GB for Ubuntu -- can I safely resize the NTFS partition to 180 GB -- The NTFS partition is about 25% full with Windows stuff; I don't want to erase the Windows partition. Is it possible to do this using the partition utility that came with Ubuntu? | 11:51 |

| nalioth | hunger: thank you. you are correct. some users feel the need to have a superuser enabled gui program, and using gksudo or kdesu is the safer method to start those | 11:51 |
| `Nomad | but when I try those as teh admin names and password I get rejected | 11:51 |
| arnold | anything? | 11:52 |
| pashaw | UbuntuNewbie, didnt you have a spare drive use that one | 11:52 |
