[12:34] <mattwalston> oops, ignore that
[02:15] <Jester45> hi, im trying to do http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Compressed-TCP.html  i have a co-located machine that i can ssh into. i was wondering if i must use  a proxy or if there is a diffrent way of doing this. and if i must use a proxy does anyone have a good guide to set on up 
[02:23] <lcdd> Jester45: is this for web traffic?
[02:23] <Jester45> possibly if it is fast 
[02:24] <Jester45> im looking more for one of the co admins that only has dialup and downloading big logs take a while
[02:28] <Jester45> and i was really curious 
[02:28] <lcdd> if there are any web proxies available to the ssh machine, it's easy to forward http over ssh for anyone who has an ssh account
[02:29] <Jester45> the log files and the ssh is on the same machine i could run a proxy on it 
[02:31] <lcdd> so there are only two machines involved?
[02:32] <lcdd> in that case there is no need for proxies
[02:33] <Jester45> good
[02:33] <lcdd> just use scp or maybe rsync over ssh to copy the files
[02:33] <Jester45> so the ssh connection would make it kinda like a proxy 
[02:35] <lcdd> it's just a tunnel between two machines
[02:36] <Jester45> so use the same command ? then tell rsync to use that port
[02:36] <Jester45> im not to good at networking
[02:37] <lcdd> well, if you already know how to use rsync, just add the option -e ssh
[02:38] <Jester45> ok
[02:40] <lcdd> there is actually a good example on the rsync man page
[02:40] <Jester45> thanks
[02:41] <lcdd> but that connection is not compressed by default
[02:44] <lcdd> Jester45: you can set ssh options, to enable compression among other things, in ~/.ssh/config (on the client machine)
[02:44] <lcdd> needs just two lines:
[02:45] <lcdd> Host myserver
[02:45] <lcdd>   Compression yes
[02:45] <lcdd> that's it
[02:45] <Jester45> compression-level=9?
[02:45] <Jester45> cant you set the level
[02:46] <lcdd> i'm not sure. the CompressionLevel option is only for the older protocol version 1
[02:47] <Jester45> k
[04:17] <hatter> any ideas of the numbers of servers now used by ubuntu-server ?
[04:29] <mralphabet> hatter: brazillions!
[04:32] <hatter> mralphabet, haha
[04:32] <hatter> do you use it ?
[04:32] <mralphabet> I do
[04:33] <hatter> i have etch and sarge on most servers now,  but etch is not discovering my sata controller due to a bug in the via-sata driver in the 2.6.18 kernel. so looks like i am switchiing it to ubuntu server
[04:34] <hatter> so i was wondering how many in real life use ubuntu as a server
[04:34] <mralphabet> I went from primarily from slackware to ubuntu
[04:34] <hatter> because of hardware driver issues ?
[04:34] <hatter> this has been the achilles heal of all these distros
[04:34] <mralphabet> more the support cycle and community
[04:34] <hatter> computer hardware moving faster than software drivers
[04:35] <mralphabet> yeah
[04:35] <hatter> painful
[04:35] <hatter> how long were you using slack for ?
[04:35] <mralphabet> I have a raid controller that isn't in the kernel yet and I have to run windows on that box, I hate it
[04:35] <mralphabet> 8 years?
[04:35] <hatter> even with ubuntu ?
[04:35] <mralphabet> yes
[04:35] <hatter> software raid ?
[04:36] <fujin> anyone know much about asterisk? more importantly, if it is maintained locally so that I may ask the maintainer to build some extra features or create an asterisk-addons package
[04:36] <hatter> s/w raid controller that is ?
[04:36] <hatter> how new is the mobo ?
[04:36] <mralphabet> it's a promise card
[04:36] <hatter> oh they are painful
[04:36] <mralphabet> quite
[04:36] <hatter> its sata ?
[04:36] <mralphabet> it's the first card they used a sata chipset for an ide card
[04:37] <hatter> have you tried a knoppix live cd ?
[04:37] <mralphabet> yup
[04:37] <mralphabet> it's nowhere in the kernel
[04:37] <hatter> damn
[04:38] <mralphabet> was a bad purchase, learned my lesson
[04:38] <hatter> hardware hardware
[04:38] <hatter> this is what i think happens over at ms
[04:38] <mralphabet> heh
[04:38] <hatter> they spend all there resources on making drivers for new hardware
[04:38] <hatter> i suffer so much with differing h/w and linux
[04:38] <mralphabet> aye
[04:39] <mralphabet> it has been getting better, but not quite there yet with some hardware vendors
[04:39] <hatter> yes much better
[04:39] <hatter> sata was driving me nuts for awhile
[04:40] <hatter> now its driving me nuts again
[04:40] <hatter> with etch
[04:40] <hatter> which i didnt think would be a problem anymore
[04:40] <hatter> which may lead me away from debian :(
[04:40] <hatter> *sigh*
[04:40] <mralphabet> I had luck with my last sata raid, though I don't remember the card!
[04:40] <hatter> though i use feisty on my desktop
[04:41] <mralphabet> the release cycle that ubuntu pushes is nice, their next LTS is going to be a lot nicer then 6.06 LTS, backports will be handled better
[04:44] <mralphabet> fujin: I don't know who maintains the asterisk package
[04:46] <hatter> well, my new ubuntu-server is now hanging at the running local boot scripts
[04:46] <hatter> dammit
[04:46] <mralphabet> ;(
[04:47] <hatter> damn sata.  it has been a pain in my ass for ages.
[04:48] <mralphabet> what chipset?
[04:50] <hatter> via8237
[04:50] <hatter> on a gigabytre ga-7vm400am
[04:51] <mralphabet> onboard sata?
[04:51] <benlake> anyone setup pure-ftpd with ssl?
[04:51] <hatter> mralphabet, yes
[04:54] <mralphabet> hatter: o0 that's an older board
[04:55] <mralphabet> hatter: /win 17
[04:55] <mralphabet> er
[04:56] <mralphabet> hatter: I am surprised that is throwing issues
[05:00] <mralphabet> hatter: try a live cd and see what it shows up as
[05:01] <mralphabet> IE desktop install cd
[05:01] <mralphabet> are you using feisty?
[05:04] <hatter> mralphabet, the livecd for knoppix is fine, ubuntu is fine, etch kernel 2.6.18 doesnt detect it
[05:05] <hatter> it appears to be a problem with via_sata driver in the 2.6.18 kernel
[05:18] <lcdd> hatter: you could install etch to an external disk or some other media and then upgrade the kernel
[05:19] <lcdd> maybe on another machine or even in qemu
[05:21] <lcdd> it's not too difficult to drop the working installation in one tarball onto the sata disk afterwards
[05:25] <hatter> lcdd, ah, theres a good idea
[05:26] <hatter> i just found the sarge installer works, so my latest thought is to install sarge, u/g to etch, install kernel from backport
[05:26] <lcdd> there might be some boot option to work around the problem also
[05:27] <hatter> lcdd, i couldnt find any, i guess i may be able to get the working driver on a disk then use a boot option
[05:28] <hatter> but then it doesnt put that driver in the kernel does it ? can the ide driver be a module ?
[05:31] <ubuntuserver> helppppppppp
[05:31] <ubuntuserver> i have installed ubuntu server
[05:31] <ubuntuserver> and they hack it,and now i again install ubuntu server
[05:31] <ubuntuserver> how can i protect it.
[05:32] <lcdd> hatter: there's a boot option "all-generic-ide" which sounds like it could work
[05:33] <ubuntuserver> i follow the how to 
[05:33] <ubuntuserver> from a web page to install postfix apache mysql and etc.
[05:34] <ubuntuserver> http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704
[05:35] <hatter> lcdd, thx i will check it out
[05:35] <ubuntuserver> can someone tell is this web site good for how to 
[05:37] <ubuntuserver> is there someone receiv ?
[05:40] <Burgundavia> ubuntuserver: that is an everything server
[05:40] <Burgundavia> what are you actually doing with this server?
[05:41] <ubuntuserver> apache,mail server,ssh
[05:41] <ubuntuserver> and webmin too.
[05:41] <Burgundavia> ugh, webmin is evil and unsecure
[05:41] <Burgundavia> it is likely that is how they broke your computer
[05:41] <ubuntuserver> i read that  they can brute force attack the ssh and then cna gain access
[05:42] <ubuntuserver> but i don't log with root
[05:42] <Burgundavia> they can, but the most common account to do that to is root
[05:42] <ubuntuserver> but when i write root 
[05:42] <ubuntuserver> and the password is say that the password is incorrect
[05:42] <ubuntuserver> root pass is dissabled
[05:42] <Burgundavia> ok
[05:43] <Burgundavia> so reinstall, and install only what you need
[05:43] <Burgundavia> there is no need to do everything they say there
[05:43] <ubuntuserver> ok 
[05:43] <ubuntuserver> but for web mai l
[05:43] <ubuntuserver> what i can use
[05:43] <ubuntuserver> zimbra?
[05:44] <Burgundavia> sure
[05:44] <ubuntuserver> ok but how can i configure it to work with the antivirus 
[05:50] <Burgundavia> for that I have no idea
[05:50] <Burgundavia> zimba likely has docs on how to configure clamav with it
[05:50] <ubuntuserver> or can you tell me what web mail is good?
[05:51] <Burgundavia> zimbra is pretty good
[05:52] <ubuntuserver> ok man 
[05:52] <ubuntuserver> one question 
[05:52] <ubuntuserver> what web min do you use?
[05:52] <Burgundavia> for web control?
[05:52] <Burgundavia> I have been looking at ebox, but there is nothing currently good enough
[05:53] <ubuntuserver> for example web mail server
[05:53] <ubuntuserver> i will try to install zimbra
[05:53] <Burgundavia> zimba will do everything
[05:54] <ubuntuserver> and another
[05:54] <ubuntuserver> i have ssh how can i protect it to if someone try brute force attack to bann him?
[05:59] <lcdd> it's better to use proper passwords
[06:00] <ubuntuserver> lcdd, i have my passowrd but how long need to be
[06:05] <lcdd> ubuntuserver: the longer the better, but more importantly it should be difficult to guess
[06:06] <ubuntuserver> ok but how can i configure that when is long that if somoone try to brute to bann him
[06:06] <ubuntuserver> like 3 time incorrect and bann him
[06:09] <lcdd> i don't know any programs for that
[06:12] <Tones> hey
[06:12] <ubuntuserver> yes
[06:13] <Tones> ummm needing some help, trying to install ubuntu on an oldish compaq proliant dual p3 server running a raid array.....but the installer doesn't find the hard drive
[06:25] <ubuntuserver> Tones, ubuntu feidty?
[06:27] <Tones> urrr 7.04
[06:27] <ubuntuserver> why don't you try 6.06
[06:27] <ubuntuserver> ok when you put the cd-rum is it load it?
[06:28] <Tones> yea when i put the cd in, it loads to the setup gui and goes through everything fine until it gets to hard drive detection
[06:29] <ubuntuserver> aha
[06:29] <ubuntuserver> and it don't detect the cd-rum
[06:29] <Tones> yea it does
[06:30] <ubuntuserver> i mean the hdd
[06:30] <Tones> it detects the raid controller (i think) but then you go to the partition part nothing works, gives errors saying no space or anything even though they are 80gb
[06:31] <ubuntuserver> ok do you have the ubuntu desktop cd
[06:31] <Tones> yea, didn't try that one though
[06:32] <ubuntuserver> put it,and if it load the go to the gnome partition 
[06:32] <ubuntuserver> and format the partition
[06:32] <Tones> ah ok, will go try that now
[06:32] <ubuntuserver> ok goodluck
[06:45] <Tones> same error, comes up saying "cannot determine the geomitry of the disc. do not use PARTED unless you kinow what your doing" or something like that
[06:47] <ubuntuserver> the importand that is use gnomparted and delete the all disk
[06:47] <ubuntuserver> is it on laptop?
[06:48] <Tones> no its on a proper server machine
[06:48] <Tones> oh gnomparted....ok will try that, is it right that its detecting the hardrive as /dev/ida/c0d0?
[06:48] <ubuntuserver> ok then try to format it from windows.
[06:49] <ubuntuserver> maybe for raid ?
[06:49] <ubuntuserver> for ide or sata no?
[06:49] <Tones> yea i've never tried any types of linux with a raid but from memory its usually something like /dev/hda/hd0 or something like that
[06:49] <Tones> its scsi its not ide or sata
[06:50] <Tones> brb, will try gnomeparted
[06:50] <ubuntuserver> ok
[06:51] <Tones> gnomeparted says no device detected
[06:52] <ubuntuserver> ?
[06:52] <ubuntuserver> from the live cd
[06:52] <Tones> yup
[06:54] <Tones> infinity: think its not seeing the raid properly....might not have a driver for it or something
[06:55] <Tones> urrr....that was meant to be i think....stupid irc client
[06:55] <ubuntuserver>   do you try to update the ubuntu
[06:56] <Tones> how do i do that?
[07:25] <ubuntuserver> now
[07:26] <ubuntuserver> apt-get update
[07:26] <ubuntuserver> but maybe the problem is that raid
[07:26] <ubuntuserver> can you change the disk to be ide.
[07:41] <necrite_> hi all
[07:41] <necrite_> i have one problem
[07:42] <necrite_> i have one server with load average "3" but when i run top.. i dont see any proccess using the cpu
[07:43] <necrite_> do u have any way to know which proccess is using the cpu?
[07:45] <athonus> Quick question. I trying to setup an FTP and i got vsftpd installed but when i /etc/vsftpd.conf i get permission denied. can anyone help?
[07:46] <necrite_> sudo vim /etc/vsftpd.conf
[07:46] <athonus> ahh ty
[07:46] <necrite_> np
[07:49] <athonus> hmm now i get command not found
[07:50] <necrite_> sudo gedit /etc/vsftpd.conf
[07:50] <athonus> still not found
[07:51] <necrite_> mmm 
[07:51] <necrite_> u dont have sudo? 
[07:51] <necrite_> r u using ubuntu-server?
[07:51] <athonus> ya
[07:51] <athonus> im using ubuntu server
[07:51] <athonus> but not sure about sudo
[07:52] <necrite_> sudo -V
[07:52] <athonus> sudo version 1.6.8p12
[07:53] <necrite_> u have vi?
[07:53] <athonus> yes
[07:53] <necrite_> sudo vi /etc/vsftpd.conf
[07:54] <athonus> that did something
[07:54] <athonus> awsome ty again im in the file now
[07:54] <necrite_> oks
[08:23] <athonus> can anyone help im in /etc/vsftpd.conf and i dont know how to get out
[01:58] <laichzeit> any good reason why ubuntu-server 7 doesn't use dmraid?
[01:59] <Nafallo> 7?
[01:59] <Nafallo> 7.04 it's called.
[01:59] <Nafallo> please use the correct version :-/
[02:00] <Nafallo> and that package is just an apt away
[02:10] <laichzeit> yeah it's an apt away, but you can't install to a raid drive if the installer doesn't see it as a raid drive.
[02:11] <laichzeit> i.e., you need dmraid so it creates /dev/mapper/raid_volume_asdl23j4lksjaa
[02:12] <laichzeit> it's a fakeraid and shows up as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb
[02:17] <lcdd> i don't there are any reasons to prefer fakeraid over software raid in a server
[02:17] <lcdd> don't know if --
[02:19] <lcdd> there might be issues with data recovery from fakeraid devices if you lose the hardware
[02:26] <krampo> Hello, is there a way to tell apt not to upgrade some specific packages (say, kernel) when doing apt-get -y update ??? Some kind of masking I may say.
[02:31] <lcdd> krampo: yes, it's possible to put packages on hold
[02:35] <krampo> thanks, I couldn't figure out the keyword. Looks like it's easiest to do with aptitude?
[02:35] <lcdd> yeah, aptitude is probably best for that
[02:37] <laichzeit> any of you know if you can use the disk when a background resync is happening with software raid?
[02:38] <lcdd> laichzeit: you can
[02:38] <laichzeit> cool, thanks.
[02:46] <krampo> it seems that apt-get ignores aptitude 'hold' flag. only aptitude respects that, is it so?
[02:47] <soren> No. Apt-get respects it, too.
[02:47] <krampo> hmm...I just tried to put on hold some packages, but apt-get upgrade upgraded them, aptitude said that they have been kept back
[02:48] <soren> krampo: Which package have you put on hold and what happens when you apt-get upgrade?
[02:48] <krampo> I put on hold update-manager and update-manager-core (for example)
[02:48] <soren> Please run:
[02:48] <soren> dpkg --get-selections | grep update-manager
[02:49] <soren> and just paste the output here (shouldn't be more than two lines)
[02:49] <krampo> update-manager                                  install
[02:49] <krampo> update-manager-core                             install
[02:49] <soren> Then aptitude is on crack.
[02:49] <soren> Run:
[02:49] <soren> echo update-manager hold | sudo dpkg --set-selections
[02:49] <soren> echo update-manager-core hold | sudo dpkg --set-selections
[02:49] <soren> That's it.
[02:50] <krampo> cool, thanks
[02:50] <krampo> now both are on hold
[02:51] <soren> np
[02:52] <krampo> cool, if I set hold using dpkg --set-selections, then aptitude respects it, if I set just in aptitude, apt-get doesn't get that hold
[03:12] <infinity> aptitude doesn't twiddle the dpkg selections.  If you want that in a curses package manager, use dselect.
[03:13] <infinity> (yay, dselect)
[03:14] <soren> eek, dselect.
[03:15] <soren> aptitude keeps its own list of held packages? Evil!
[03:29] <infinity> aptitude does pretty much everything in its own special way.
[03:29] <infinity> And dselect actually works. :P
[03:30] <infinity> (I have years of bitter bias here, so take this with a grain of salt)
[03:30] <infinity> soren: What happened to "shawarma"?  Too many complaints about your nick making people hungry?
[03:33] <soren> infinity: Kees revealed that you could hijack nicknames if they hadn't been used in more than 6 months. soren hadn't been used in almost three years.
[03:33] <soren> And was registered about a week before that.
[03:33] <soren> :)
[03:33] <soren> infinity: But yes, also too many complaints about making people hungry. :)
[03:46] <maswan> infinity, soren: personally I agree and avoid aptitude for pretty mcuh those reasons
[04:00] <zul> dendrobates: ping
[04:05] <dendrobates> zul: pong
[04:06] <zul> dendrobates: for the ldap authentication stuff why arent we using redhat-config-ldap or whatever the program is called
[04:08] <zul> reading the ldap spec btw
[04:08] <dendrobates> zul: currently, the debian packages makes changes to pam-ldap and nss-ldap, that I believe makes it incompatible.  One of the main purposes of the spec is to correct that.
[04:09] <dendrobates> zul: I wouldn't rule it out in the future though.
[04:09] <krampo> heh, speaking about ldap. Week ago I tried to set up authentication through ldap (our University has all students in ldap database), but I couldn't figure out how to map any ldap user to some local user. So users authenticate through ldap username/password, but get some local home dir (everybody the same, at the beginning).
[04:10] <dendrobates> zul: also, pam-ldap and nss-ldap are linked against openldap-2.1, which is missing some functionality.
[04:11] <dendrobates> krampo:  map? how did you do it?
[04:11] <dendrobates> zul: the spec is a work in progress.
[04:11] <krampo> I couldn't :)
[04:12] <dendrobates> krampo: what did you try to do?  what packages dod you install?
[04:12] <dendrobates> s/dod/did/
[04:13] <krampo> libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap
[04:14] <krampo> I followed some manual about Debian/Ubuntu authentication through ldap
[04:14] <krampo> I got to the point where it authenticates username/password
[04:15] <krampo> but then got some error (tryin' to find it in syslog)
[04:16] <dendrobates> libnss-ldap when setup correctly, and should provide nss info. 
[04:16] <dendrobates> of course, our ldap data must also be correct.
[04:19] <krampo> anyway, as I remember it was something about can't find group or something like that
[04:20] <dendrobates> did you create the necessary ou=group in your directory tree?
[04:20] <krampo> I was just thinking whether it's possible to use just username/password authentication from LDAP and everything else from local system
[04:21] <krampo> what's about that group? I just have read-only access to that LDAP server
[04:22] <krampo> everybody is in People
[04:22] <dendrobates> Ahh, it is possible you do not have sufficient access to search the directory for group information.
[04:22] <krampo> there are also ou=groups (for example grouped by faculties)
[04:23] <krampo> cn=faculty_name,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv
[04:23] <krampo> something like that
[04:24] <krampo> there should be separate group for those who can authenticate using ldap from linux?
[04:26] <dendrobates> the groups must contain the objectclass posixGroup  and contain memberUid attributes.
[04:27] <dendrobates> you also must be able to search in that ou. 
[04:35] <krampo> but the ou=People (where all those users actually reside) can't be used?
[04:42] <dendrobates> krampo: it may contain primary group membership, but the system needs information about that group. i.e gid. and that is in ou=groups
[04:44] <krampo> they have set it up like this:
[04:44] <krampo> there's a group
[04:45] <krampo> cn=teo,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv
[04:45] <krampo> it has ojectClass posixGroup atribute
[04:45] <krampo> and it has gidNumber
[04:45] <krampo> all the members are as attributes in that cn=teo
[04:45] <krampo> just listed
[04:45] <krampo> e.g zt12345, zt23435
[04:46] <krampo> ....
[04:46] <krampo> each of them is memberUid
[04:46] <dendrobates> that's right.  perhaps you just have a misconfiguration. 
[04:47] <krampo> beginning of LDIF:
[04:47] <dendrobates> what os is the server running on?
[04:47] <krampo> 7.04
[04:47] <krampo> aaa
[04:47] <krampo> lDAP?
[04:47] <krampo> I think it's AIX
[04:47] <krampo> or something like that
[04:48] <dendrobates> is it openldap or ibm directory server?
[04:48] <krampo> openldap I think
[04:48] <krampo> that's an open server, if you like you can check :)
[04:48] <krampo> http://bumbieris.lanet.lv
[04:48] <krampo> dc=lu,dc=lv
[04:49] <krampo> should be accessible from anywhere
[04:49] <krampo> AFAIK
[04:50] <krampo> dn: cn=teo,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv
[04:50] <krampo> objectClass: top
[04:50] <krampo> objectClass: posixGroup
[04:50] <krampo> cn: teo
[04:50] <krampo> gidNumber: 213
[04:50] <krampo> memberUid: zt30070
[04:50] <krampo> beginning of LDIF file for that group
[04:50] <dendrobates> krampo: you should discuss this with your directory server admins.  perhaps they have configuration steps for you.
[04:51] <krampo> then continues long list of memberUid
[04:51] <dendrobates>  the group looks fine.
[04:51] <krampo> ok, but the group looks ok to you?
[04:51] <krampo> ok
[04:52] <dendrobates> however, if the server is ibm directory server, all is different.  AIX clients and servers, modify the posix schema.
[04:53] <krampo> but on libnss-ldap reconfigure I should list the full path, right? cn=teo,ou=groups,dc=lu,dc=lv
[05:03] <krampo> dendrobates: thanks a lot. I'll check with server admins (they're not very talktive, you know :) and try to figure out how to solve this thing.
[05:05] <dendrobates> krampo: np
[05:05] <krampo> I know that windows classrooms in university are using tool called pagina (or smth. like that) and they're authenticating against POP3 (which is connected to the same LDAP)
[05:07] <dendrobates> krampo: that is a completely different thing, than Linux system authentication.  It would not have the same requirements.
[05:10] <dendrobates> krampo: you should only give suffix when it asks for the search base  i.e dc=lu,dc=lv
[05:11] <krampo> ok
[07:00] <stiV> hi everyone ... back again :-) i have a problem with the postfix package: i have an unattended ubuntu installation, which installs everything i need. most of the packages are installed AFTER the setup process with a script that is being started in rc.local. the problem is, that some packages try to use stdin/stdout (eg. i had to adapt the ssl-cert package to use /tmp instead of a homedir, because it couldn't find a homedir ;
[07:01] <stiV> (...) providing my own package would not be a problem)
[08:01] <necrite> hi.
[08:02] <necrite> when i run the "top" command. i see one line which say "cpu(s)"  and  I need one line per core. there is any SWITCH to see one liene per core?
[08:03] <lcdd> necrite: '1'
[08:03] <necrite> ?
[08:03] <lcdd> hit one while in top
[08:04] <necrite> lcdd, i have Cpu(s): 13.5%us,  0.5%sy,  0.0%ni, 85.2%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.8%si,  0.0%st
[08:04] <necrite> and i need cpu1 blah.. cpu2 blah
[08:05] <lcdd> yes. the '1' key toggles cpu summary view
[08:06] <necrite> nice ty!
[08:07] <necrite> lcdd, what is the %id collumn?
[08:08] <lcdd> idle
[08:09] <necrite> mhhh so idle 100% is fine
[08:09] <necrite> ?
[08:09] <lcdd> right
[08:10] <necrite> there is any place to paste 8 lines to show u one thing?
[08:11] <necrite> i have 3 core's idle and one 63% idle and load average of 2.3 :S
[08:11] <necrite> !paste
[08:11] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:11] <lcdd> load average doesn't exactly mean cpu load
[08:12] <necrite> lcdd, check this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29681/ 
[08:17] <lcdd> necrite: it looks ok
[08:18] <necrite> but why i have 2 of load average?
[08:18] <lcdd> this article explains load avg: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9001
[08:18] <necrite> ty
[08:20] <stiV> second try :-) i have a problem with the postfix package: i have an unattended ubuntu installation, which installs everything i need. most of the packages are installed AFTER the setup process with a script that is being started in rc.local. the problem is, that some packages try to use stdin/stdout (eg. i had to adapt the ssl-cert package to use /tmp instead of a homedir, because it couldn't find a homedir ;). postfix asks 
[08:20] <stiV> (my own  package would not be a problem)
[09:52] <Enron> Hi question i'm trying to update snapapi using dkms build --kernelsourcedir I can't locate the kernel source build dir can someone help
[09:57] <Enron> Anyone alive?
[10:02] <necrite> i am alive
[10:02] <necrite> but i cant help u
[10:21] <stiV> enron: if you have downloaded the kernel sources via aptitude they should be accessible via /usr/src/linux
[10:22] <stiV> !kernel-source
[10:22] <ubotu> To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages
[10:36] <Enron> inorder to install acronis backup agent, I need to update snapapi module. I need to issue the command dkms build -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.19 \ -k <KERNEL_VERSRION> --config <CONFIG_FILE> --arch <KERNEL_ARCH> \ --kernelsourcedir <PATH_TO_KERNEL_SOURCES> # dkms install -m snapapi26 -v 0.7.19 \ -k <KERNEL_VERSRION> --config <CONFIG_FILE> --arch <KERNEL_ARCH> \ --kernelsourcedir <PATH_TO_KERNEL_SOURCES> 
[10:36] <Enron> this is what i'm trying to do
[10:55] <mralphabet> linux-libc-dev - Linux Kernel Headers for development
[10:59] <Enron> I got an error when trying to build http://phpfi.com/249372
[11:01] <mralphabet> you have build-essential?
[11:01] <Enron> yes
[11:06] <mralphabet> is linux-libc-dev installed?
