[12:01] ok got config [12:01] thx [12:01] Tonren: It sounds to me like the library's proxy is trying to run an activeX control or suchlike that is windows-only. I could be totally wrong though...

[12:01] uhm, how? [12:01] tonren: bit of a long shot, but have you tried asking the library people? [12:01] purplemunkz: sudo network-manager [12:02] jrib, I have a user bin /home/user/bin.

[12:02] vinnybinny: if there are large multimedia files, you'd want rsync to compress them while copying. They won't end up compressed in the backup directory [12:02] jrib, no I'm use xfce [12:02] purple: i use "iwlist scan" to find available networks then change essid to the network i would like to use [12:02] Tonren, frederific might be right. it makes no sence that your connection is lost like that. can you verify that it disconnects or that the connection stays up but you can not browse? [12:02] tonren: Yeah, I figured it'd be like that [12:02] ok, I'll give it a try... so even if eth0 isn't currently set as the default, would I still be able to ping external hosts and ip's using the eth0 interface? === kcinna [n=kcinna@modemcable223.5-200-24.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu [12:02] vinnybinny: but if you don't want rsync to compress them on the way, leave out the 'z' parameter [12:03] because i can [12:03] tonren: have you tried turning off your pop-up blocker?

[12:05] frederific: I don't think so. Like I said - the first thing I did in Windows was open Gaim, not Firefox or even IE.

[12:06] it really doesn't make any sense though, as I can ping yahoo.com and google.com and get responses from those domain names. but I simply can't access them using ffox, or even the apt-get utility isn't working as well... though i can succesfully ping the hostname that apt-get is trying to connect to in order to pull packages.

[12:08] Tonren, might be a cookie that keeps the connection up, that's why i suggested it [12:08] vinnybinny: no, they both update the changed files, but the one with --delete also deletes anything in the backup directory that doesn't exist in the source directory, i.e. anything that's been deleted from the source dir since the last backup.

For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX [01:38] kitche: that rather is silly considering it is basically SATA -- the drive works fine when plugged directly into the SATA port, but you put the eSATA adapter on and it doesn't see it after boot.

[08:00] the easiest way to fix resolution is to simply replace the correct the horizontal and vertical refresh rates in your xorg.conf, make sure your default depth includes your resolution, and restart [08:01] if you used any other complicated method to do it, it was unnecessary [08:01] n2diy: This sounds like an interesting discussion; what are you talking about?

I haven't checked out troecrypt in a while.. but that's not really steganography, is it? [11:38] break_: I'd personally still on use Linux if I were interested in learning about it, or if I had an admin handy. Although, it is getting a lot closer to being usable to end-users. A lot closer with Ubuntu.

Or upgrade to edgy where you know it's in the repos. Compiling from source is usually not the best options [11:39] slart, I think steganography is the science of hiding data. === moxilo [n=moxilo@Ronny214.wh22.tu-dresden.de] has joined #ubuntu === bioxz [n=bioxz@p5481ACEC.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu [11:39] jowi, nice [11:39] break_: Why do you want QT 4.1?

I would want to use all six crypto schemes :O) [11:40] i moved back to this crappy town [11:40] break_: Ubuntu isn't like Windows where you're supposed to so easily mix and match applicaion versions. It's a lot easier if you just stay with what your distribution has officially packaged for you. [11:40] I think more of hiding data inside sound files and such when I hear steganography.. but I guess digging a hole in the ground for the hard drive might be hiding it too =) [11:41] slaps break_ [11:41] so if i cant find it through the package manager, then dont even think about using it? [11:41] Morning all [11:41] slart, haha, yes, and a very fine science it would turn out to be. [11:41] <|Sora|> with truecrypt, you can only hide it under a truecrypt volume, which is foolish i think [11:41] |Sora|, why wouldn't it be? steganography is to hide information inside other data. like hiding a message within a message. [11:41] so i'll ask again [11:41] |Sora|, whys that? [11:41] levander: more to the point; there is only one 'windows distro' -- and nobody in windows builds apps from source..

E17 splits the difference. Besides, can you have animated desktop background in Beryl? [03:35] debian is dad, ubuntu is son [03:35] jakob: eh... not really [03:35] Ice_Wewe: you should try it sometime, then... unless your system is very old (mine is an athlon XP 1700+ with a cheap GeForce FX5200) it will quite literally blow your mind [03:35] Ice_Wewe: you can have an animated *anything* in beryl === jimcooncat [n=jim@pool-72-65-108-219.ptldme.east.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu [03:36] poningru: I mean I want to see the processes below the bottum === relachs [n=dddddd@AC9E81EA.ipt.aol.com] has joined #ubuntu === mseney__ [n=mseney__@rrcs-72-43-200-216.nys.biz.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu [03:36] mwe: oh in top === fusspils [n=fusspils@194-144-36-99.du.xdsl.is] has joined #ubuntu [03:36] jakob: yes, there is difference.

[11:48] mlissner, so yeh, i don't remember exactly what package it's called, but you still need everything for building a kernel (e.g. build-essential: gcc, make ....) and you also need the linux header files for your currently running kernel so that the module can link against your currently running kernel [11:48] I don't even want to hear `stage1` or `stage2` [11:48] :\ [11:48] Where Is my home directory in ubutnu?

[11:50] !lamp | Wimpog, wiki link [11:50] Wimpog, wiki link: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [11:50] mlissner, yes indeed [11:50] What would I look under? [11:50] GuerrillaWon: uh, one second [11:50] jazzrocker, would it be possile to merge in the smp stuff instead? === alibaba [n=alibaba@wnpgmb02dc1-177-41.dynamic.mts.net] has joined #ubuntu [11:50] mlissner, nope [11:50] There is a good remote desltop tool but I can't remember what its called [11:50] Windows Remote Desktop or VNC? [11:50] GuerrillaWon: XDMCP is a common one, if you're doing it over a LAN, otherwise you have to do some tunneling [11:50] GuerrillaWon: your options are RDP (not sure what servers are available for this), VNC (I use VNC4), and NX Server [11:50] mlissner, that's too low level [11:50] mwe it turns up nothing.

[11:51] mlissner, i would personally recommend compiling your own kernel custom for two reasons, one it's not that hard, two you'll learn something, three you'll still have your old kernel(s) to fall back on should you mess up [11:51] oh sorry that isn't good === RogerBacon [n=RogerBac@bas3-sherbrooke40-1177645781.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #ubuntu [11:51] rnalexander: and did it finish so quickly?

I will have the old one to fall back on in grub right? [11:51] mlissner, because honestly, in order to really understand how to "just compile a driver" you should understand what i means to compile a kernel [11:51] mlissner, correct [11:51] mlissner, probably about 4 old grub entries actually [11:52] It's called "TSCLIENT" [11:52] rnalexander: I screwed up the command. sorry [11:52] mlissner, i mean you can compile 10 different kernels if you want [11:52] Philluminati: yes it is [11:52] mlissner, and put them all in GRUB [11:52] it handles RDP fine [11:52] Philluminati, sure it is.
