anto9us | konfuzed, WEP cracking not so much a problem as awareness, one of the biggest security issues in the modern world is knowing what you're connecting to. It's easy to walk into a wireless zone with a laptop spoof an AP and hijack all its clients and credit card details. Clients need to no the details (mac address) of AP they're connecting to. | 01:00 |

ic56 | ToHellWithGA: The desirable number of partitions depends on the size of your backup media. Ideally you want each partition to fit in no more than one tape, so that, when you start an overnight dump, you don't arrive in the morning to find that it's been waiting half the night for a 2nd tape to be inserted. | 02:19 |

ic56 | ToHellWithGA: also, the more filesystemss, the more isolated the data corruption. When your drive fails, the filesystem containing the bad sectors will be trashed. The others will remain accessible. The fewer filesystems you have, the greater the impact of that single point of failure. | 02:21 |

livingdaylight | liquiem: so you only know when you happen upon it. Seems backup and fresh install is safer way | 02:22 |
liquiem | livingdaylight: the best iead would be backup up the partition, resize it, reformat it and restore the files | 02:22 |
ToHellWithGA | ic56: you've put a lot of thought into this. do you do something computer-related for work? | 02:22 |

livingdaylight | ic | 02:24 |
ic56 | ToHellWithGA: for a small home system, /, /home, /var makes sense. If you need to decrease the size of your filesystems further, /usr and /var/www are good places to separate things, as are places under /var like /var/spool , /var/news (if you carry usenet), etc. Ubuntu defaults to one big partition because that's what newbies from windows understand. | 02:24 |

ic56 | ToHellWithGA: it's a question of balance. If /var/www is gonna be huge, then it makes sense to split it out. /var is meant for files that get changed often. For people who like to mount / read-only, /var is a good splitting point. It's all described in teh filesystem standard (google FSSTND). | 02:27 |

ToHellWithGA | ic56: somebody told me the filesystem standard was a good way to start undestanding linux. i'm more for playing around and knowing just enough to get by than understanding. that and it was a big .pdf if i remember correctly | 02:29 |
dibblego | freddyubuntu, please go to bed - solve it the next day | 02:29 |
anto9us | livingdaylight, it happens, I've been caught myself too, never trust a backup till you've restored from it and proven it works, that's my motto | 02:29 |
ic56 | ToHellWithGA: run "du -s /var" (du = Disk Usage) on your current system to see how big the /var tree is. If you think /var/www will grow to make /var double what it is already, then it makes sense for /var/www to be a separate filesystem. The risk is that the smaller your partitions, the sooner they'll run out of space and you might end up w/ lots of unused space on the wrong partitions. | 02:29 |

zquirm | Hi. I'm running ubuntu server, in console mode; no X. I have a DELL 2001fp, and when the system boots up, the video mode is the standard 640x480 @ 60hz. All is well. Yet, the moment the linux kernel loads, it switches into 640x350 @ 70hz.. This makes the console unusable, as you can't see the whole thing. | 02:32 |
ic56 | ToHellWithGA: I've never resized a unix partition. But there are such beasts as resizable partitions, at least in AIX, dunno about Linux. Anyway, if you have backup media, trashing your disk and re-partitioning is easy. | 02:32 |

alpha255 | skavenge: that was my thought | 02:59 |
ToHellWithGA | forevernoob: until you're very comfortable with linux, packaging, and building from source, don't be so hard on yourself. coming from something other than linux to linux is a hell of a learning curve, and rewarding to boot. | 02:59 |
ic56 | ToHellWithGA: best guess, cpio detected a long sequence of 0s in that file and thought it might be a sparse file (which it wasn't). So it tried to copy it without using any storage for those zeros but found it wasn't practical to do so and ended up occupying a sector to store them. So it reports that the file "grew" -- by 0 bytes -- ie it consumes the same amount of disk as it did before. | 02:59 |

forevernoob | ToHellWithGA: http://www.gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_ice1724 | 03:11 |
jighead | [sam] , on gentoo it does, on ubuntu you use aptitude or apt-get | 03:11 |
HedgeMage | sampan: emerge is the command for the package manager portage on gentoo | 03:11 |
liquiem | [sam] : emerge on ubunto does nothing as said before | 03:11 |

jighead | threat, MrKeuner it is how Ubuntu gets around the restrictive licenses, they never actually *distribute* that software | 03:17 |
LjL | Cntryboy: i'm not sure. it's just that i have a habit of doing "gunzip filename.tar.gz" and then "tar -xf filename.tar" (a useless habit), so i can never be sure that i remember the "short" tar-only command | 03:17 |
threat | jighead, do go on | 03:18 |
crash9877 | so i exchanged it with a logitech media keyboard and it works. thx god i have more pcs that i can handle | 03:18 |

liquiem | Cntryboy: tar xvzf file.tgz ... x extract, v verbose, z gzip compression, f following text is the filename | 03:18 |
threat | jighead, so because it is in temparary memory it is ok? | 03:18 |
jighead | MrKeuner, so if you have linux-restricted-modules-686 installed and boot to the 686 kernel, you should see volatile under the 686 module dir and not the 386 | 03:18 |

nomad111 | hi everyone im not sure which ubuntu file to download desktop or alternate? | 03:19 |

crash9877 | alpha255: its ok now since i have several keyboards. i just wanted to know if someone has the same problem | 03:19 |
LjL | nomad111: desktop contains a "live" distribution (i.e. you can run stuff from the CD) and a graphical installer. alternate contains only a text-mode installer. some say the alternate installer is more reliable (well, it's older at any rate) | 03:20 |
BIAF | nomadlll : desktop is just fine | 03:20 |
Cntryboy | it's .tgz thats same as .tar right? | 03:20 |
hey2k5 | for compiling, do i just need to apt-get for gcc? | 03:20 |
LjL | Cntryboy: no, it's the same as .tar.gz | 03:20 |
alpha255 | nope | 03:20 |
morphix | hey2k5: get build-essential | 03:20 |
Cntryboy | k | 03:20 |
jighead | MrKeuner, do you have linux-restricted-modules for both of them, use synaptic to search, since apt-get and aptitude will cut of the version numbers and make it hard to tell | 03:20 |

LjL | Cntryboy: .tar is an archive format (it was originally meant for tapes). it simply "glues" files together. gzip is a compression format | 03:20 |
nomad111 | LjL, i think ill grab the desktop one lol | 03:20 |
alpha255 | Cntryboy: try file foo.tar | 03:20 |
MrKeuner | jighead/ I'll check but I think I have both. just a sec | 03:21 |

nomad111 | LjL, im not a pro at this | 03:21 |
Cntryboy | thats what I got | 03:21 |
LjL | Cntryboy: so, gzip can only compress *one* file; tar takes many files, but it doesn't compress. the two, together, make for a nice ZIP-like thing | 03:21 |

cge | jorvis_: You don't need one if you are using ext3. | 03:58 |
heatxsink | hello all, has anyone tried using mod_perl with apache2 on dapper? | 03:58 |
DarkLegacy | My friend is asking what's the difference between Windows and Linux | 03:58 |
DarkLegacy | How can I sum it up to him in one word? | 03:58 |

cge | eclypse: Well, it just _feels different_. It is more slightly configurable than Metacity, but you can configure it to be mostly the same. The themes are slightly different, but again, are mostly the same. XFWM uses the same toolkit (GTK), so it isn't very different. I believe the only thing that breaks is the window theme selection in Theme Preferences. | 04:23 |
Madpilot | inono, you know there's a "Recall" command as well as a "Recruit" command, you know - in Wesnoth | 04:23 |

eFoX | dli: thanks, ill have a look at it | 04:32 |
cafuego | aaronm23: Then you will need to create custom local packages from the tarballs. Don't just compile and 'make install' over the top. That *will* break things. | 04:32 |
varsendaggr | aaronm23, is anypart of it working? | 04:32 |

HedgeMage | Scotti: You can ask one of the gamer types about wine and cedega (two packages that may be used to rung M$ Windows programs)... as for ease of set-up, it's quite simple, though if you plan to be supporting it commercially, you should at least have some serious experience using it yourself first. | 05:55 |

senakey | hey folks, if i want a modules/`uname -r`/build directory, should i be symlinking that to /usr/include/linux? i mean thats where linux-kernel-headers installed to, but it just seems a bit messy?... | 07:37 |
MistaED | kriswood: look up the wiki entries on wiki.ubuntu.com, i needed to make a udev config so it symlinks to /dev/input/wacom (you need to edit your xorg.conf accordingly) but it's all outlined in those instructions | 07:37 |

KrisWood | rjian: assuming you have two network cards and eth0 is plugged into the internet and eth1 is plugged into your network, you need a firewall of some sort to route data to the correct places. A good one is firestarter. Just install it and your connection sharing will start automagicly. | 08:34 |

konfuzed | hey there a quick question about bios settings. Should Plug and Play AWARE OS be on or off ?? | 08:39 |
BlueEagle | garryfre: You will be able to contract all sorts of viruses when running windows in wmware. Especially if you're not careful with how and what you give wmware access to read/write. Ie. if you mount / as read/write in wmware and the directories in /home are writable by the group users you might infect all documents of all users. | 08:40 |
ic56 | KrisWood: yw! It's really wierd helping someone try to emulate a Windows environment so closely. I would have never thought to pursue these things -- I don't think of my system as a collection of drives but as a single directory tree. The music is one place, the backups elsewhere. | 08:40 |

Messagner | crimsun, if I had to guess, I would guess that my wireless s trying to act as a bridge only, that seems to be causing issues, but I changed the rate to 11M and my WEP from 40 to 128 and i think that fixed it. But my laptop is about to die and will probably not work after I restart. Not only that, but I still can't ping one computer on wireless from one computer of wired or vise versa, so the wireless definetly isn't acting like a bridge | 09:26 |

eobanb | Goldneye, ...? | 10:42 |
eobanb | Goldneye, the live CD and the install CD are the same thing | 10:42 |
skavenge | you install from the livecd as well | 10:42 |
Goldneye | oh oh.. ok | 10:42 |
Lynoure | If I want to change all sudo things (also update announcements) to another user, is there some easy way to do that? | 10:42 |

kevin | CaptainMorgan, is there a message in dmesg after you try to load the driver? | 10:48 |

eobanb | Lynoure, as far as i know, the update manager automatically showing the bubble that says 'updates are available' or whatever is purely dependent on whether or not the user in question has that enabled. by default, for administrative users, i think it's on. | 10:49 |
drwarlock | what decoders do i need for movie player | 10:49 |
eobanb | but you might want to check anyway | 10:49 |
eobanb | !tell drwarlock about restricted | 10:49 |
CaptainMorgan | kevin: only message is 'unable to create driver: driver does not exist or you don't have sufficient permissions" | 10:49 |
gnomefreak | ubotu tell drwarlock -about restricted | 10:49 |
prudhvi | Hi, i have just installed BreeZy on my PC and i also have an another PC that is currently mirroring Dapper Drake. But, when i change the apt sources.list the breezy system is not upgrading to dapper what might be the problsm | 10:49 |
kevin | CaptainMorgan, try #kubuntu then.....maybe they will know something I don't | 10:49 |
eobanb | YuRaider, what sort of internet connection is this | 10:49 |
YuRaider | it's cable internet | 10:50 |
YuRaider | I have my Scientific Atlanta WebStar 2000 | 10:50 |
YuRaider | connected via USB | 10:50 |
Lynoure | eobanb: ok, thanks. | 10:50 |
YuRaider | but when connected through the ethernet adapter | 10:50 |
=== eobanb shudders at USB networking | ||
YuRaider | it works great | 10:50 |
YuRaider | :) | 10:50 |
eobanb | YuRaider, so why don't you use the ethernet adapter then | 10:50 |
Madpilot | prudhvi, you need to do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to go from Breezy->Dapper after changing your sources.list | 10:50 |
YuRaider | because I need to somehow connect my two PCs :) | 10:50 |
eobanb | that's what ethernet was designed for | 10:50 |
eobanb | and USB was not | 10:50 |
YuRaider | but what's really interesting | 10:51 |
YuRaider | is that everything worked GREAT in Breezyt | 10:51 |
YuRaider | Breezy* | 10:51 |

mrmist | Any ideas ?? | 10:52 |
YuRaider | have you got GTK-dev installed? | 10:52 |
eobanb | YuRaider, well considering it worked before and now it doesn't, i'm certainly inclined to say it should work...on the other hand given that ethernet cards can be had for $5 i'm also inclined to just say, 'go buy an ethernet card' | 10:52 |
Xorph | may sudo apt-get install gtk-config | 10:52 |
YuRaider | well I'm just too lazy :D | 10:52 |
YuRaider | oh well I'm just gonna buy another LAN adapter then | 10:53 |

UNH2LY | kevin, i ended up doing a server install from a breezy disc (desktop wouldnt work on that either) and then upgrading to a desktop install, then to dapper | 11:01 |
freddyubuntu | aha | 11:01 |
freddyubuntu | i think i installed qt 3 | 11:01 |
czr | subir, /var/spool or /var/cache | 11:02 |
freddyubuntu | there are a lot of QT things... | 11:02 |

subiraj | i wanted to ask one more thing when the apt starts downloading files from the servers it first looks for the files in the cache dir, if i copy these files n save it for further use on my system will it work if i pt back them in that directory | 11:09 |

eobanb | ScottiNailon, does the network interface show up at all? | 11:10 |
subiraj | is QT based on programing or on visual inputs.. | 11:10 |
czr | mrmist, there are other techniques as well | 11:10 |
YuRaider | subiraj: both | 11:10 |
ScottiNailon | I have an ADSL modem connected to a wireless hub which my computer is wired to. | 11:10 |
czr | mrmist, and just using threads doesn't mean that the program will scale | 11:10 |
YuRaider | there's a nice QT Designer | 11:10 |
subiraj | okk | 11:10 |
mrmist | czr: have any good references ? | 11:10 |

czr | mrmist, read the book on posix realtime extensions (POSIX.4 - programming for the real world) | 11:10 |
czr | that doesn't touch threads though | 11:11 |
subiraj | can u refer one to QT designer to install | 11:11 |
ScottiNailon | i havent tried it... | 11:11 |
YuRaider | well it's installed along with QT itselft | 11:11 |

YuRaider | like from Synaptic | 11:12 |
ScottiNailon | I am not sure - I havent played in Linux for a long time :) | 11:12 |
czr | mrmist, depends on what you do. you know how to measure software performance? | 11:12 |
subiraj | okk if i search for QT | 11:12 |
rjian | how can i open .tar file extension? | 11:12 |

ScottiNailon | eobanb: are there any other thoughts?? just before I reboot into linux | 11:12 |
YuRaider | sorry subiraj I'm gonna have to leave u guyz now so I can have breakfast :D | 11:12 |
eobanb | ScottiNailon, after you log in, open a terminal, do 'ifconfig' and make sure the network interface is there | 11:12 |
subiraj | okk | 11:12 |
eobanb | and then try 'sudo dhclient' to get a DHCP lease | 11:12 |
mrmist | czr: I'm creating a raytracer. It's as simple as comparing rendering times | 11:12 |
subiraj | then gud mornin to u | 11:12 |
czr | mrmist, obviously if you think it's that simple, you don't need any pointers from me ;-) | 11:13 |
eobanb | ScottiNailon, if that doesnt work, then write down what the error message is, and tell us what it is | 11:13 |
mrmist | czr: Hehe.... then tell me.. | 11:13 |
ScottiNailon | eobanb: hmmm ok, um yeah thats it I guess... I will check it out.... the system boots right into gnome | 11:13 |

czr | mrmist, L1 > L2 > memory > virtual mem, but with multiple CPUs there will be a lot of scalability problems when multiple caches need to hold the same data | 11:14 |
ScottiNailon | SHOULD being the operative word!!! | 11:14 |
ScottiNailon | hehe | 11:14 |
smacky_wolf | Could anyone give me any reasons as to why installing ANYTHING on my 64bit Dapper install is nearly impossible? If so, also how could I actually install something? | 11:14 |
eobanb | if you aren't, open System > Administration > Neworking and choose the DNS tab, and see what appears there | 11:15 |
czr | mrmist, obviously you should look into packed vector operations as well, depending on your mathematics requirements and whether you can parallelize your raytracing calculations to begin with | 11:15 |
ScottiNailon | nothing appears there.... | 11:15 |
ScottiNailon | what SHOULD be there? | 11:15 |
konfuzed | now that the 5.10 install is actually at the stage of "Installing Packackages" is there any more manual intervention required like even 1 key stroke on the keyboard? | 11:15 |

czr | mrmist, there is real parallel stuff, and there is small domain (intra-node) parallel, which requires quite different approaches | 11:16 |

ScottiNailon | would it have anything to do with ip6 being there and not ip4? | 12:13 |
LoneShadow | rait: if that fails, boot from a linux cd and run parted on /dev/hdb1, and that will let you shrink the parition | 12:13 |

matthew_w | Only when I access the windows partition | 02:34 |
snoops | and not using kubuntu either.. | 02:35 |
protocol2 | ahh | 02:35 |
matthew_w | And even then, much less often | 02:35 |
protocol2 | what do you see when you try to boot from the windows partitition? | 02:35 |
matthew_w | furthermore, there's what is called a super-auditory noise coming from my computer | 02:35 |
matthew_w | That wasn't there before | 02:35 |

matthew_w | But that drives me mad. lol. | 02:35 |
matthew_w | It boots, it's just when I'm in windows, it will completely lock, seemingly at random | 02:36 |
snoops | I'll boot into ubuntu and check the versions for ya tsarkon | 02:36 |
tsarkon | snoops, oh.. thanks | 02:36 |
matthew_w | or 100% of the time when I try to access certain things, like games, or the defragger | 02:36 |
protocol2 | matthew_w, and the lock never happens at all in ubuntu correct? | 02:36 |
matthew_w | protocol2; again, only if I try to access or alter the windows partition | 02:37 |
protocol2 | i would reload a clean install of windows | 02:37 |
protocol2 | backup | 02:37 |
matthew_w | '/' is on /dev/hda2, swap is on /dev/hda3, and windows is on /dev/hda1 | 02:37 |

ompaul | virus, ^^ | 02:53 |
gizmo_the_great1 | hi. I've just inserted 'noapic' and 'nolapic' at the end of my linuk kernal boot loader entry to prevent some weird freezing. Its booted OK, which is good. But can anyone explain to me what I've done by turning off these values? Is it good to do so or will I be effecting my system in other ways? | 02:53 |
raiffhigor | so i can do something with this to solve mt problem... | 02:53 |
DBO | taf, does sudo dhclient eth0 work for you | 02:53 |
raiffhigor | *my problem | 02:53 |
matthew_w | gizmo_the_great1, my windows system frequently locks altogether, not just a crash but complete system death, furthermore, when defragging, or dosfscking, the computer also locks. | 02:53 |
taf | dont know im going to have to try | 02:53 |
matthew_w | Ubuntu will not lock up until it accesses the windows partition extensively | 02:53 |
matthew_w | ie: for a sudo dosfsck -aftv /dev/hda1 | 02:54 |

matthew_w | DBO; although, it is a good game for letting you turn down the gfx | 03:04 |
idoru_ | killaz: that depends on what kind of nvidia card you are having, besides installing the correct packages, you also should edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace nv with nvidia, check http://wiki.ubuntu.com for more information about setting up nvidia | 03:04 |
bethanyandrob | But Linux is an open source freely distributed OS that rocks windows | 03:05 |

rob_p | skavenge, Actually, iptables is merely a command line utility for the configuration of the firewall rules/policies. Since the iptables tool is very "syntaxy", folks have written other tools, such as firestarter, which manipulate the iptables tool, which then configures the rules in the kernel. Hence, iptables is not always running! | 07:38 |

mindamp | whats going on? its the default setup | 10:54 |
