| Sharn | Nope. =\ | 12:51 |
| maxamillion | BrendanM: why do you need to print to PDF? | 12:52 |
| maxamillion | BrendanM: OOo can just export them and AbiWord can just save as PDF | 12:53 |

| BrendanM | Actually, I'm trying to circumvent restrictions on a fill-in PDF that I downloaded. It won't let you save a filled-in copy | 12:55 |
| BrendanM | it will let you print a filled-in copy | 12:55 |
| BrendanM | it's actually cups-pdf, not pdf-cups. I think I figured it out | 12:56 |
| BrendanM | !cups-pdf | 12:56 |
| ubotu | cups-pdf: PDF printer for CUPS. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.4.2-1 (edgy), package size 39 kB, installed size 240 kB | 12:56 |
| maxamillion | oh ... interesting | 12:56 |

| grazie | don't dell charge the same for Windoze & Linux labtops? I can't figure that out myself? | 01:21 |
| maxamillion | Sharn: the Dell prices are actually a little cheaper, but you have to install for youself because they only come with FreeDOS pre-loaded | 01:21 |
| Sharn | emperorlinus is pretty spendy, though.. | 01:22 |
| maxamillion | grazie: no, it is cheaper for a linux laptop from dell because you don't pay the microsoft licensing fee ... its only $60-80 cheaper, but its nice to stick it to the man from time to timr | 01:22 |
| Sharn | Especially since they're just thinkpads... | 01:22 |
| maxamillion | Sharn: yes, very expensive for hardware that cost that much | 01:23 |

| maxamillion | mpla<tab> | 01:36 |
| Jester45 | no no | 01:36 |

| Jester45 | like if its installed give this out put | 01:36 |
| maxamillion | Jester45: aptitude search mplayer .... if the output has an 'i' next to it then its installed | 01:37 |
| Jester45 | it its not give this | 01:37 |
| maxamillion | yeah, uhmmm ... that would just be search functions | 01:37 |
| Jester45 | how would i put that in script | 01:37 |
| darrend | Jester45: FOO=`which mplayer`; if [[ "" != "$FOO"] ] ; then ... | 01:37 |
| === BFTD is now known as OGDA | ||
| darrend | those are backticks around the which command, not apostrophe's or quotes | 01:38 |
| Jester45 | ok im still beginning scripting | 01:39 |
| Jester45 | i put that in a terminal and all i get is a new line | 01:40 |
| Jester45 | > | 01:40 |
| darrend | that's because it wasn't a complete script | 01:40 |
| darrend | i assumed you'd realise that | 01:40 |
| Sharn | Rofl | 01:40 |
| darrend | replace the ellipses with: echo "installed"; fi | 01:41 |
| Jester45 | i said i now | 01:41 |
| Jester45 | new | 01:41 |
| darrend | also missing a space in the first bit. | 01:43 |
| darrend | try this: | 01:43 |

| darrend | http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=bash+tutorial | 01:44 |
| Jester45 | whats the fi | 01:44 |
| darrend | ends the 'if' bloack | 01:44 |
| darrend | *block | 01:44 |
| Jester45 | o | 01:44 |
| darrend | find a tutorial from that link, there are some good ones | 01:44 |
| Jester45 | ok i just started yester day | 01:45 |
| darrend | you'll find it easier to work from a tutorial than ask on IRC | 01:45 |
| Jester45 | one last question | 01:46 |
| Jester45 | how can i make it a if not installed then do apt-get install mplayer | 01:47 |
| darrend | well, apt wil lonly install if not already installed anyway so the script would be redundant | 01:48 |
| darrend | but for the purpose of the script: | 01:48 |
| Jester45 | but i dont what it to try each time or show that its trying | 01:48 |
| darrend | if [[ "" == "$FOO" ] ] ; apt-get install mplayer; fi | 01:48 |
| Jester45 | so if the foo=`which mplayer` part comes back with somthing then its continuies | 01:50 |

| cellofellow | has highlighting. | 02:56 |
| cellofellow | or just vim with :syntax enable | 02:56 |
| Jester45 | its just bash and should be simple | 02:56 |

| malnilion | Sharn, why do you need to make a .img then :P | 04:15 |
| BlueEagle | sharn: sounds like you want to make a file with dd then mount it with -o loop and then copy the files to it. | 04:17 |
| BlueEagle | sharn: You should be able to format it once it's mounted. | 04:17 |
| BlueEagle | sharn: Then it will act just like a floppy disk. | 04:17 |
| Jester45 | can you make a bash script wait a number a seconds to wait for a command to finsih | 04:17 |
| BlueEagle | jester45: man wait | 04:18 |
| Jester45 | i know there is plain wait but that waits for a command to finish | 04:18 |
| BlueEagle | make that: man sleep | 04:18 |
| Jester45 | sllep n | 04:18 |
| Jester45 | sleep n (n is the seconds)? | 04:18 |
| === malnilion would guess milliseconds | ||
| BlueEagle | jester45: man sleep | 04:19 |
| BlueEagle | jester45: or info sleep | 04:19 |
| === malnilion would be wrong :P | ||
| Jester45 | i have somthing for the user to input somthing if they are not ready for my script to do somthing | 04:19 |
| malnilion | It's seconds | 04:19 |
| Sharn | malnilion: I'm making floppy images for VMware | 04:19 |
| Jester45 | would you say 5 secs is good | 04:19 |
| Jester45 | for a user to ctrl c the script | 04:20 |
| Jester45 | im also doing it this way for addes experience | 04:20 |
| Jester45 | added | 04:20 |
| malnilion | I'd make it 10 if it was gonna fuxor things :P | 04:20 |
| Jester45 | well its not a hard choise | 04:20 |
| BlueEagle | sharn: Again. man dd to get the manual. You want if=/dev/zero and of=/path/to/filename.img and you need to specify the size (check the manual for syntax). Then you mount the file with -o loop to a mount point and format it as a floppy disk. Then you copy the files over and unmount the file and you've got yourself a brand new floppy disk image containing the files you want,. | 04:21 |
| Jester45 | choice the things above it is only inputing file path and type of dvd wanted | 04:21 |
| malnilion | Heh 5 seconds should be fine then :) | 04:22 |
| Jester45 | i just tested it | 04:23 |
| Sharn | BlueEagle: Alright, I'll look into it. Thanks. :) | 04:23 |
| BlueEagle | sharn: Upi | 04:23 |
| BlueEagle | sharn: You're welcome. | 04:23 |
| Jester45 | and 7 cools good 10 to long for ppl that know the script and if they look away user might miss the 5 sec | 04:24 |
| Jester45 | this is starting to look good | 04:25 |
| Jester45 | but its kinda not working now but i working deeper i think its gonna fix it | 04:26 |

| Dell_Boy | then see if i wanna instal it | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | well you cant edit things on the live cd... only once its booted | 04:36 |

| Sharn | I think it's all booted except for X... | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | becuase the live cd is on a cd and even if it was a rewriteable | 04:36 |
| Dell_Boy | oh dangit | 04:37 |
| Jester45 | the fs i scompressed | 04:37 |
| Sharn | Dell_Boy: does it come to a login prompt or anything? | 04:37 |
| Dell_Boy | no | 04:37 |
| Sharn | What does it do after the error? | 04:37 |
| === MagicFab_ [n=MagicFab@modemcable175.169-57-74.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Dell_Boy | its after swap something [ok] | 04:37 |
| Dell_Boy | then something else [ok] | 04:37 |
| Dell_Boy | then it does the Server X problem | 04:37 |
| Sharn | Does it just hang there? Not go any farther? | 04:38 |
| Dell_Boy | it stays there after i hit ok couple of times | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | o its messing up during boot | 04:39 |

| Dell_Boy | it says "After fixing Restart GDM" | 04:39 |
| Dell_Boy | should i download the Radeon Drivers for Linux? | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | try waiting for someone smarter like PuMpErNiCkLe or crimsun to look | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | o | 04:40 |
| Dell_Boy | ok | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | no you shouldnt | 04:40 |
| Dell_Boy | ok | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | the driver for ati that comes with xubuntu supports all the caRDS to some extent | 04:41 |
| Jester45 | bootable | 04:41 |
| Sharn | Yeah... the livecd should boot almost no matter what card you have.. | 04:41 |
| Dell_Boy | I burnt the Xubuntu Disk from the internet | 04:41 |
| Jester45 | what version | 04:42 |
| Jester45 | drapper or edgy | 04:42 |
| Dell_Boy | hold on | 04:42 |
| Sharn | I'm pretty sure that's not the problem. :P | 04:42 |
| Dell_Boy | Edgy | 04:42 |
| Dell_Boy | 6.10 Edgy Eft | 04:42 |
| Sharn | You COULD try Dapper.. It may work better. | 04:42 |
| Jester45 | Sharn: could make the problem more specific | 04:42 |
| Jester45 | drapper is more stable | 04:43 |
| Dell_Boy | ok it did the same thing with Ubuntu | 04:43 |
| Jester45 | is pre drapper supported any more? | 04:43 |
| Dell_Boy | 6.10 Desktop | 04:43 |
| Sharn | If it doesn't take you too long to download the disc, I would try it. | 04:43 |
| Dell_Boy | ok | 04:43 |
| Sharn | And, Jester45, I don't think they are.. | 04:43 |
| Sharn | You want a link, Dell_Boy? | 04:43 |
| Dell_Boy | ok | 04:43 |
| Sharn | One sec | 04:44 |
| Dell_Boy | ok | 04:44 |
| Sharn | You want Xubuntu or Ubuntu? | 04:44 |
| Dell_Boy | Xubuntu | 04:44 |
| Jester45 | goo choice | 04:44 |
| Dell_Boy | i only have 700mb black CDs | 04:45 |
| Sharn | Hmmmm. Do you torrent or just direct download? | 04:45 |
| Dell_Boy | direct download | 04:45 |
| Dell_Boy | whats Torrent? | 04:45 |
| Sharn | http://ubuntu-cdimage.datahop.it/xubuntu/releases/6.06.1/release.1/xubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-i386.iso | 04:46 |
| Dell_Boy | Thanks | 04:46 |
| Sharn | Torrent directs the load away from the server. Everyon uploads and everyone downloads. | 04:46 |
| Dell_Boy | oh | 04:47 |
| Dell_Boy | this is going to take awile to download | 04:47 |
| Sharn | It'll take as long as the other ones. =\ | 04:48 |
| Dell_Boy | :( | 04:48 |
| Jester45 | the torrents also can be faster | 04:48 |
| Jester45 | because the severs dont have that much speed but many users have more speed | 04:48 |
| Dell_Boy | oh | 04:48 |
| Dell_Boy | thats cool | 04:48 |
| Jester45 | and even the dial upers can add up | 04:49 |
| Dell_Boy | would BitTorrent do it? | 04:49 |
| Jester45 | if you dl from 50 dial up connections you can get 100k/s | 04:49 |
| Jester45 | yes that would work | 04:49 |
| Sharn | That's exactly it... :P | 04:49 |
| Dell_Boy | oh | 04:49 |
| Jester45 | you can try that it might be faster | 04:49 |
| Dell_Boy | my Download Speed supposed to be 7Mbps | 04:50 |
| Jester45 | also you need to give it time to connect to people | 04:50 |
| Dell_Boy | ok | 04:50 |
| Jester45 | with direct dls you connect to 1 place on torrents i connect to about 100 per torrent | 04:50 |
| Dell_Boy | Where do i get the Torrent File for Xbuntu? | 04:51 |

| Dell_Boy | What can i get with Bit Torrent? | 04:55 |
| Sharn | ...stuff. :O | 04:55 |

| Sharn | Welcome to programming. xD | 05:47 |
| === malnilion is finding this fascinating :) | ||
| Jester45 | no error just not finished | 05:48 |
| Sharn | malnilion: do you program anything now? | 05:48 |
| malnilion | A little bit of Java, nothing fancy. | 05:48 |
| malnilion | Could do some C++ too. | 05:48 |
| Jester45 | ok | 05:48 |
| Jester45 | now my problem is that im not sure how to do this | 05:48 |
| malnilion | I'm a comp sci major, though, so I should theoretically be getting better :P | 05:49 |
| Jester45 | im trying to automate dvd making encoding-authoring-burning | 05:49 |
| malnilion | Looks like you got the encoding part :P | 05:49 |
| Jester45 | and the way im doing it | 05:49 |
| Jester45 | is the first thing to encode is to check audio type and if needed to encode it | 05:50 |
| malnilion | Right | 05:50 |
| Jester45 | now if its ac3 then nothing is done but if its somthing else i need to run a 2nd part of the script | 05:50 |
| Jester45 | how could i do this | 05:50 |
| malnilion | Ah, here's where oop is helpful | 05:51 |
| Jester45 | i think i could run a 2nd outside script | 05:51 |
| malnilion | Probably. | 05:51 |
| Sharn | Sheesh... Probably fancier than mine. ^_^ | 05:51 |
| malnilion | But would you need to? Maybe not. | 05:51 |
| Jester45 | but thats not what i would realy like | 05:51 |
| malnilion | Let's see what I can find about bash scripting. | 05:51 |
| === Jester45 runes to pastebin | ||
| Jester45 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5677/ | 05:53 |
| malnilion | Alright, let's make a function :) | 05:54 |
| Jester45 | thats for if the audio is ac3 | 05:55 |
| Jester45 | sorry if its a little sloppy to you | 05:55 |
| Jester45 | its my 2nd script | 05:55 |
| Jester45 | working up the ladder | 05:55 |
| malnilion | if [[ "$audiotype" != "ac3" ] ] ; then do_other_shit(); | 05:55 |
| malnilion | or something | 05:55 |
| malnilion | Can you get the audio type into a variable somehow? | 05:56 |
| Jester45 | well at line 39 | 05:56 |
| Jester45 | it figures if its ac3 or not | 05:56 |
| malnilion | Ah, there ya go. | 05:57 |
| Sharn | Rofl... | 05:57 |
| Jester45 | hwac3 is ac3 | 05:57 |
| Jester45 | like all my comments? | 05:57 |
| malnilion | if [[ "$AUDIO_FORMAT" != "hwac3" ] ] ; then do_other_shit(); | 05:57 |
| malnilion | ^ maybe? | 05:57 |
| malnilion | Yeah, comments are helpful. | 05:57 |
| Jester45 | they work as a separator for me | 05:58 |
| malnilion | Or here's what you can do: | 05:58 |
| malnilion | if [[ "$AUDIO_FORMAT" == "hwac3" ] ] ; then { code that you want to execute if it's true goes here } else { code that you want to do if it's false goes here } | 05:59 |
| malnilion | ^ use appropriate line breaks with the curly braces por favor :) | 05:59 |
| Jester45 | ok the above suggestion i need to be able to run 2 diffrent mencoder commands 1 for PAL and 1 for NTSC | 06:00 |
| Jester45 | ok the above above | 06:00 |
| Jester45 | so could i do | 06:00 |

| Jester45 | yes | 06:06 |
| Jester45 | but can i make a umm subsection | 06:07 |
| Jester45 | like | 06:07 |
| Jester45 | aaa | 06:07 |
| Jester45 | arrrg | 06:07 |
| malnilion | The answer is most likely yes :P | 06:07 |
| malnilion | You are probably asking if you can make a function. | 06:07 |
| Jester45 | ok do you understand what i need to so | 06:07 |
| Jester45 | to do* | 06:08 |
| Jester45 | as far as the encoding part | 06:08 |
| Jester45 | its like a tree | 06:08 |
| malnilion | Right | 06:08 |
| Jester45 | first think is the file then if the audio is right then if its PAL or NTSC then is its wide or full screen | 06:09 |
| malnilion | Yep, you just use if statements for each step. | 06:10 |
| Jester45 | but | 06:10 |
| Jester45 | after the audio i need to do a 2nd if | 06:11 |
| Jester45 | not just one command | 06:11 |
| Jester45 | wait | 06:11 |
| Jester45 | can i do | 06:11 |
| malnilion | You're saying you want to add another command to that if statement? | 06:11 |
| Jester45 | if [[statement] ] ; then | 06:12 |
| Jester45 | run this | 06:12 |
| Jester45 | else run this if statement | 06:12 |
| Jester45 | can the else contane a if statemtent | 06:12 |
| malnilion | Yep, that'd be an else if. | 06:13 |
| malnilion | Should work. | 06:13 |
| === Jester45 needs lots of luck and his head to stop over thinking | ||
| malnilion | I think you need to use the symbol "elif" | 06:14 |
| Jester45 | ?? | 06:14 |
| malnilion | if [[statement] ] ; then | 06:14 |
| malnilion | run this | 06:14 |
| malnilion | elif [[statement] ] ; then | 06:15 |
| malnilion | run this | 06:15 |
| Jester45 | whats the diff | 06:15 |
| malnilion | I just think that's how the bash syntax works | 06:15 |
| Jester45 | well i will try with noramal if | 06:15 |
| malnilion | Yeah try an else if first | 06:17 |

| malnilion | elif is a correct method, though | 06:19 |
| malnilion | Ooooh, found something interesting. | 06:21 |
| malnilion | Until you close an if with a fi, it's open for nesting :P | 06:21 |

| Jester45 | now search for firefox | 08:13 |
| Jester45 | and look at the installed verson coulum | 08:13 |

| grazie | the-noo-noo: I've no idea. try an OO.o channel | 04:31 |
| the-noo-noo | Thanks anyway. Here on irc you mean? | 04:32 |
| maxamillion | the-noo-noo: that in all honestly could be the problem, i know it doesn't mention it in the package manager installation but i know on windows (because i install it on windows boxes at work) that during the installation it warns that if you lack atleast JRE 1.4.2 that the application might not have full functionality | 04:32 |
| Jester45 | the-noo-noo: most if not all the people in here are just users so they sit here and if they get to their computer they answer questions | 04:33 |
| the-noo-noo | Thanks Maximillion. Unfortunately, I can't install JRE at the moment as I only have 45MB of drive space left! | 04:34 |
| Jester45 | oo | 04:34 |
| the-noo-noo | Thanks for your comment Jester45 | 04:34 |
| the-noo-noo | Yeah I have a 1999 laptop with a 4GB hard drive and it's partitioned in two lots of 2GB so that I can keep my Win98 installed until I'm happy that I can transfer completely to Xubuntu. | 04:35 |
| Jester45 | the-noo-noo: you can remove some things from the package manger and that can give you much more space | 04:36 |
| Jester45 | on freash installes i remove 200mb of stuff | 04:36 |
| the-noo-noo | OpenOffice is my biggest concern at the moment. I have another crash problem with it that I have little way of knowing the cause. It happens when I try to open a particular Word document so I never see what the problem is! | 04:37 |
| the-noo-noo | I've tried to remove as much as I can - non western fonts, GIMP, TBird, etc. | 04:37 |
| grazie | the-noo-noo: if haven't got much ram, OO.o can be pretty slow and troublesome | 04:38 |
| the-noo-noo | Hmm | 04:38 |
| maxamillion | the-noo-noo: the document that crashes out in OOo, have you tried opening it in AbiWord? ... i have noticed that sometimes OOo chokes one some documents with certain formatting whereas AbiWord will just ignore them and continue to function | 04:38 |
| Jester45 | try running OOo from a terminal and see if it has a verbrose mode | 04:39 |
| the-noo-noo | Funny you should ask - I uninstalled AbiWord to make more space available! | 04:39 |
| Jester45 | so it will tel you evry thing its doing | 04:39 |
| the-noo-noo | Jester45: Can you explain how I would find out if it has a verbose mode, please? | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | quick question: can you use ubuntu cds as a repo with synatic? | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | man OpenOffice.org | 04:40 |
| Jester45 | might work | 04:41 |
| the-noo-noo | Jester45: sorry, what's a repo? | 04:41 |
| Jester45 | idk the command for OOo i dont use it | 04:41 |
| Jester45 | repository | 04:41 |

| the-noo-noo | grazie: you're right, the terminal logs problems. Just opening the program without loading any files throws up 4 faults, the following one 3 times: (process:6997): Gdk-CRITICAL **: gdk_screen_get_font_options: assertion `GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed | 04:57 |
| the-noo-noo | Anyone know why I get the above OOo fault? | 04:58 |
| grazie | the-noo-noo: launching programs from a terminal is a standard way to get more details | 05:00 |
| grazie | the-noo-noo: can't really help with those errors. how much memory you got? | 05:00 |
| the-noo-noo | grazie: thanks. I've got over 100MB free, 186MB total | 05:02 |

| the-noo-noo | grazie: doesn't seem too slow to me and, as I say, I've got over 100MB unused. | 05:04 |

| the-noo-noo | grazie: it seems my system font is the issue, someone else reported the same issue and found that by changing to a different system font his errors cleared. Sorry to be so ignorant, but how do I change the system font? It is the one in Settings --> User Interface Settings, Theme, Font? | 05:16 |
| grazie | the-noo-noo: yes I suppose so...I've never needed to change mine. do you know what fonts will work though? | 05:22 |
| the-noo-noo | grazie: no! Just found another lead on the forums though. | 05:23 |

| Stu_2 | Hi everyone.. silly question #1... the installation for xubuntu never prompted me for a root password.. just "[my] name" and a password, presumeably for a user account. Did I miss something ? | 08:03 |
| Sharn | Stu_2: Nope, the isntall doesn't ask for root password. I think "sudo passwd root" should let you set one. | 08:05 |
| Sharn | And Jester45, wordpress is probably the best known blog program: http://wordpress.org/ | 08:05 |
| Stu_2 | ah, ok.. seemed unusual compared to previous distros I've tried to install. Thanks! | 08:05 |
| Jester45 | ok | 08:05 |
| Jester45 | thasnks | 08:06 |
| grazie | Stu_2: but most people don't need a root account | 08:06 |
| Jester45 | its defualt to the user's pas but you can change that | 08:06 |
| Stu_2 | grazie: does sudo not normally require a seperate root password configured ? | 08:06 |
| === Owdgit [n=ron@88-110-127-232.dynamic.dsl.as9105.com] has joined #xubuntu | ||
| Sharn | No. Sudo requires the password you set there. And I use sudo all the time. | 08:07 |
| Sharn | The password didn't default to mine when I first isntalled, either. | 08:07 |
| Sharn | installed* | 08:08 |
| Stu_2 | hm... I must not really understand what sudo does as opposed to su->enter root pass, continue. I'll take a look into it | 08:08 |
| Sharn | Stu_2: Sudo simply lets you use root for one command. Su will keep you as root until you type exit or close the terminal | 08:09 |
| Stu_2 | ahhh | 08:09 |
| grazie | Stu_2: as Sharn says. The root account is almost always never needed! | 08:09 |
| Sharn | Uhhhh. I said I'm always using it. :P | 08:09 |
| Stu_2 | I see... so the account I build upon installation already has permissions to define anything necessary for sudo to then grant me what would normally be root access? | 08:10 |
| grazie | Sharn: yes, but you don't need it | 08:10 |
| Stu_2 | grazie: In a different context, you're just saying that I won't need more privelege than the user account I created upon installation already has? | 08:11 |
| Stu_2 | privelage* | 08:11 |
| Sharn | A normal user wouldn't... | 08:11 |
| grazie | Stu_2: ye | 08:11 |
| Stu_2 | so I'll be able to edit /etc/hosts, install packages, etc, without ever needing more access ? | 08:11 |
| Sharn | If you like to tweak and stuff you'll need sudo a lot. And sudo just logs you into root. | 08:11 |
| Sharn | Nope. You need the root password for those. | 08:12 |
| Stu_2 | I see.. | 08:12 |
| Sharn | At least.. I do. I think. | 08:12 |
| Sharn | Anyway, doesn't matter. If you're root password set ok, no biggy. | 08:13 |
| grazie | Sharn: no you don't need the root account. sudo gives you almost everthing su does | 08:13 |
| Sharn | Yeah... sudo IS using the root account though. | 08:13 |
| Sharn | Just only for one command. | 08:14 |
| Sharn | su just keeps you logged in as root in that terminal. | 08:14 |
| Sharn | Whereas sudo only logs you in for one command. | 08:14 |
| grazie | Sharn: no sudo gives you temp admin privs..,it's subtle but it is different | 08:14 |
| Stu_2 | cool deal.. so just set the root pass when I get in, so I can use sudo as necessary... think I can handle that. | 08:15 |
| Sharn | Meh. Ok. | 08:15 |
| grazie | Stu_2: no. it's good not having the root account set! | 08:15 |
| Stu_2 | ah.. from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo -- "By default, the root account is locked in Ubuntu. This means you cannot login as root or use su. Instead, the installer will setup sudo to allow the user that is created during install to run all adm | 08:15 |
| grazie | Stu_2: exactly | 08:16 |
| Stu_2 | silly irc client didn't paste it all.. | 08:16 |
| Stu_2 | regardless, the user account I created, should have access to do whatever I'd like | 08:16 |
| Stu_2 | unless I'm misinterpreting that | 08:16 |
| grazie | Stu_2: almost yes | 08:16 |
| Sharn | With sudo you can do anything root can, I believe. | 08:16 |
| Sharn | !sudo | 08:17 |
| ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information. | 08:17 |

| hyper_ch | hiho, is it somehow possible to run ssh on a different port? or rather have two ssh servers running on different ports? | 08:29 |
| Sharn | It may be... | 08:31 |
| Sharn | man ssh | 08:32 |
| Sharn | In terminal, of course. | 08:32 |
| Stu_2 | hyper_ch -- there is a port option in openssh... edit wherever your config file is.. /etc/ssh/ssh_config perhaps... | 08:34 |

| hyper_ch | Stu_2: but how to run two instances on two ports? Is that possible? | 08:38 |
| Stu_2 | hyper_ch -- I'd say it's certainly possible -- you'd probably need two different ssh daemons, or one referencing two different config files. | 08:38 |
| hyper_ch | running one instance listening to two ports :) that's possible | 08:39 |
| hyper_ch | man pages tell so... but give not the syntax for it :9 | 08:40 |
| Sharn | Where would I find my USB camera...? | 08:40 |
| hyper_ch | anyway, that's good, I'll find out | 08:40 |
| Stu_2 | heh.. dunno. If you find an answer, please share :-) | 08:40 |
| Stu_2 | (or you might be able to add an addition Port: comment in the config... <shrug> | 08:40 |
| hyper_ch | Stu_2: I will... you see, I make daily backups through rsycn / ssh on (one) of my servers... and I don't want to overkill the connection (as I do now) so I thought I might limit one port it runs on :) | 08:41 |

| knight | what do you us | 09:00 |
| hyper__ch | Stu_2: it works like a charm | 09:00 |

| knight | it does not scan the wireless | 09:01 |
| hyper__ch | Stu_2: open the /etc/ssh/ssh_config | 09:01 |
| hyper__ch | Stu_2: at the very beginning you have a Port 22 entry | 09:01 |
| hyper__ch | just add below other port | 09:01 |

| knight | oh ok | 09:04 |
| knight | which one is that | 09:04 |
| hyper__ch | I don't know | 09:04 |

| kalikiana | Dany700, I don't have a floppy drive, but you may add hyper's line and run 'sudo mount -a' :) | 09:40 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, doing that now... | 09:40 |
| hyper__ch | and go in recovery mode or something... | 09:40 |

| Dany700 | can you write me the exact code to use in the terminal? | 09:40 |
| hyper__ch | do that and afterwards you have dual booting again | 09:41 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: I don't know the exact steps as I haven't done it before | 09:41 |
| Dany700 | kalikiana, i'm using a live cd | 09:41 |
| hyper__ch | Dany700: well, my entry is in my fstab... so that gets mounted at boot-up | 09:41 |
| hyper__ch | ah, live cd... uff.... no clue :) | 09:42 |
| kalikiana | Dany700, oh, then forget that idea.. there is a panel plugin if that helps? :) | 09:42 |
| kalikiana | Dany700, sry, I'm too much used to fstab contrary to mount as-is | 09:42 |

| Jester45 | sudo? | 09:44 |
| Dany700 | *there is | 09:44 |
| Dany700 | no, it's like mount uid:0 or something | 09:45 |
| kalikiana | Dany700, usually 'sudo mount ...' works fine, apart from my limited experience there | 09:46 |

| Jester45 | or Maximilian1st you just tink its working | 09:48 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, does this take this long (it's been on Mounting root file system... a long time) | 09:48 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: never used the recovery, so I can't tell | 09:50 |
| Maximilian1st | It does work here in french and did work in english the other day... | 09:50 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, trying a different DVD drive... | 09:50 |
| Dany700 | i think i've find the code: sudo mount -t vfat -o uid=1000,gid=100,rw /mnt/floppy | 09:51 |

| hyper__ch | Dany700: no clue | 09:52 |
| Dany700 | hyper :) | 09:53 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, OK, it was b/c I have a SATA regular & compatible mode in my BIOS & it was compatible when I installed Linux but I changed it for Vista install... it's loading up now... | 09:53 |
| hyper__ch | sei di Milano Dany? | 09:53 |
| Dany700 | s :) | 09:53 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: how dare you using this evil word V***a | 09:54 |
| hyper__ch | cognosci Sarah Di Fresco? | 09:54 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, btw, we can hose Vista if we have to but I don't want to lose Linux | 09:54 |
| Dany700 | hyper ma sei italiano? | 09:54 |
| Dany700 | no, i'm sorry hyper | 09:54 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, (but I need evil Vista in the end b/c some SW is only Windows) | 09:54 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: why did you want to install Vista??? | 09:54 |
| hyper__ch | Dany700: no, sono Svizzero tedesco | 09:55 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, OK, at Live CD desktop | 09:55 |
| Dany700 | ah ok | 09:55 |
| Maximilian1st | Ma, sai quante persone vivono Milano?? 8-| | 09:55 |
| hyper__ch | Maximilian1st: 5-6 persone? | 09:55 |
| Dany700 | o.O ehi ma pieno di italiani qui? :) | 09:55 |
| hyper__ch | *smile* | 09:55 |
| Dany700 | eheh | 09:55 |
| Maximilian1st | ;-p | 09:55 |
| drx0drx | hyper__ch, btw, right now my Second hard drive is set first in the boot order (in order to boot Vista) b/c Linux wouldn't boot when first drive set first in boot order. | 09:56 |
| drx0drx | do i need to put things back in the bios exactly as they were before to prevent losing something? | 09:56 |
| Dany700 | hyper dove abiti, vicino lugano? | 09:56 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: doesn't matter... just let grub install into the master boot record | 09:56 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: at least that's what I think... in my optinion it doesn't matter | 09:57 |
| drx0drx | OK, but won't it install on drive 1 even tho Linux is on drive 2? | 09:57 |
| hyper__ch | Dany700: no, abito San Gallo... vicino di lago constanze(?) | 09:57 |
| drx0drx | oddly, right now Gparted only sees Drive 1 (Linux) and not Drive 2 (evil Vista) | 09:57 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: no clue :( | 09:58 |
| hyper__ch | see, billy boy did evil things to your computer | 09:58 |
| drx0drx | do you know how to update GRUB on drive 1 so it will boot Linux on drive 1 and Vista on drive 2? | 09:59 |
| hyper__ch | hmmm | 09:59 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: grub should recognize all the installed OS and make boot entries... it doesn't matter on what drive which os is installed | 09:59 |
| hyper__ch | it only matters for windows... | 09:59 |
| hyper__ch | at least that's how far I understand all of it :) I'm far from being an all-knowing guru | 10:00 |
| drx0drx | does it matter that GPARTED doesn't see Windows right now? should I play with the BIOS settings so LiveCD sees both drives first? | 10:00 |
| Dany700 | hyper ah ok san gallo | 10:00 |
| hyper__ch | it should see the windows drive/partition... that is indeed odd... | 10:01 |
| drx0drx | also, I just reinstalled Vista so I can install it again (no software installed yet, no data) if that makes things easier | 10:01 |
| hyper__ch | maybe switch and test that way | 10:01 |
| drx0drx | let me check the bios settings again, it was very temperamental the first time I set it up (without compatibility mode I got nowhere installing either OS) | 10:01 |
| hyper__ch | when you boot the computer it sees both drives? I mean the bios recognizes both drives? | 10:02 |
| drx0drx | yes | 10:03 |
| Dany700 | i'm going now, thanks to everybody for help!! | 10:03 |
| hyper__ch | Dany700: is the proper name of Lake Constance in italian: lago di constance? | 10:03 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: indeed odd, that gparted doesn't see both drives then | 10:03 |
| Dany700 | hyper: ma tu intendi se io abito l vicino? | 10:03 |
| drx0drx | it always did but there the installation CDs couldn't install on the SATA drives until I enabled compatibility mode and PATA vs SATA | 10:03 |
| hyper__ch | drx0drx: maybe you better ask at #kubuntu or #ubuntu --> there are some gurus there :) for me it just works fine :) | 10:04 |
| Dany700 | hyper: cmq lago di costanza non l'ho mai sentito :) | 10:04 |

| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, where might I want it? | 11:02 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | You may need to specify filesystem of -t type. | 11:02 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | drx0drx: It's your system. Wherever you want. | 11:03 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, it's ext3 | 11:03 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, for example? | 11:03 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Any empty directory will do. | 11:04 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Any at all. | 11:04 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, I used /mnt | 11:05 |

| PuMpErNiCkLe | Wait, sorry, wrong menu file. | 11:06 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | (I was thinking of the applications menu, not /boot/grub/menu.lst.) | 11:06 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, so right now I have 2 drives but bios is set for 1 (can't boot live CD if set for 2), now Linux is sda but I think it may change to sdb when bios reset, what do I change in menu.lst | 11:07 |

| drx0drx | also, when I try to copy the menu.lst (for backup) it says "Permission denied" | 11:08 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Both drives are sata? | 11:09 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, yes | 11:09 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | And the primary drive has Linux installed on it, and the secondary will/does have Vista? | 11:10 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, I'm not sure which has which. Previously, Windows was sda and Linux sdb, but I've been messing with the bios to get the Live CD to boot (it will only do this in compatible mode where drive 2 is not present) | 11:11 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, in this mode, Linux changes to sda, but when I go back to enhanced mode it *may* be sdb | 11:12 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, okay, I backed up the menu.lst via sudo | 11:14 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | It labels the drives by their position on the controller. | 11:14 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | So if it's the second drive, it would be sdb, but if it's the first, it'll be sda. | 11:15 |
| drx0drx | PuMpErNiCkLe, when I switch from compatible to enhanced mode, I think it changes position, or maybe I changed their positions in the BIOS | 11:15 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | Or for Grub, 0,0 or 1,0. | 11:16 |
| PuMpErNiCkLe | I gotta run, though. | 11:16 |
| drx0drx | it shows Vista root (hd0,0) (vista drive is presently Not present in BIOS) | 11:17 |
| drx0drx | it shows Linux root as /dev/sdb1 | 11:17 |
