[01:17] if policy>outbound traffic policy is permisive by default then, that`s no problem [01:18] kiosk. psss, this is xubuntu ge have our little own, mousepad :) === s|k [n=bjorn@c-69-181-8-54.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #xubuntu [01:20] kiosk try one of them.. servers. and try apt-get update from console. are you running 7.04? [01:20] nikolam: I think it was my firewall it got much further than before on Synaptic reload list [01:20] still stuck at 23 of 24 though [01:21] I think i am 7.04 [01:21] nikolam: how do I tell? [01:21] Just select one randomly , one you think that is near. [01:22] nikolam: I will try another one [01:22] firewall is off now [01:23] Firewall should not be the problem. If it is permissive on outgoing connactions. [01:23] nikolam: I used to permit and I haven't changed the settings [01:24] I am back where I started now. [01:24] New server only gets to 7 out of 15 [01:25] just select one by hand.

[01:28] hmmm [01:28] Do you use proxy or something. [01:28] I tried to install one yes [01:28] but it didn't work [01:28] Or so I though [01:28] Or so I thought [01:28] Dns resolving should not return 127.0.0.1 on every request [01:28] I bet that is it [01:29] I found it [01:30] Go to synaptic [01:30] nikolam: ok [01:30] and then settings>preferences>network> and select direct connection to internet. [01:31] If that dont work try to uninstall that proxy you have [01:31] And focus on dns resolving. [01:31] nikolam: it was allready set direct - I guess I need to uninstall anon-proxy [01:31] nikolam: anon-proxy asked me a question when I installed about dns I think [01:31] nslookup www.yahoo.com should return 87.248.113.14, not 127.0.0.1 [01:32] uninstall d** thing :) and start your firewall , it should protect you all the time [01:32] nikolam: It does return that IP [01:32] nikolam: I will [01:33] nikolam: Firewall on captain! : ) [01:33] nikolam: Thanks for so much help. I was screwed. [01:33] nikolam: LOL [01:34] maybe if you try to reboot after that and you definitely should check dns resolving etc. [01:34] Then, i am screwed :) [01:38] nikolam: yep I have to reboot [01:38] Still trying to go to 127.0.0.1 [01:39] nikolam: If I can't come back thanks again for your help [01:39] brb === cellofellow [n=josh@69-71-167-63.mammothnetworks.com] has joined #xubuntu === Kilro1 [n=Kilroo@cpe-071-076-173-175.triad.res.rr.com] has joined #xubuntu === kiosk [n=kiosk@ip72-192-216-48.dc.dc.cox.net] has joined #xubuntu === bigfuzzyjesus [n=bigfuzzy@unaffiliated/bigfuzzyjesus] has joined #xubuntu [02:02] anybody know nikolam?

[07:01] does it have a new version every 6 months like ubuntu [07:01] is there an internet cafe in a nearby town or anything? [07:01] yes [07:01] most *buntu's are on the same release schedule - the ones that matter anyway [07:01] i live like 20 miles from town, thats why i have satellite [07:02] like ubuntu, kubuntu, and xubuntu and edubuntu? [07:02] could you drive to town, download the image / burn it? [07:02] yes [07:02] any more i should know about lol [07:02] edubuntu is documentation so no [07:02] ? [07:02] fluxbuntu, ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu all get releases every 6 months [07:02] cool [07:03] theres nubuntu, mythbuntu [07:03] hrmmm [07:03] a few others im sure [07:03] but those dont get the good support, eh? [07:03] nubuntu is a security distro [07:03] mythbuntu is a distro based on mythtv - its on the normal release schedule [07:04] so why is Xfce the way to go? [07:04] IMO: it's lighter, faster, and easier than gnome or kde. [07:05] i'm a fan of fluxbox though, i had to have more desktop functionality though [07:05] im excited to see what fluxbuntu will offer in gutsy [07:05] cool [07:05] (fluxbox is a very minimal window manager, no desktop environment) [07:05] it's also super fast and light [07:05] with 2.0 ghz and 512 ram would i see a difference in Xfce? [07:06] compared to ubuntu that is [07:06] it would not be worth the upgrade, considering the trouble you have to go through to get it [07:06] you could always apt-get install xubuntu-desktop i believe [07:06] or apt-get install xubuntu [07:06] i can [07:06] i looked [07:07] it shouldnt tax your satellite too terribly [07:07] and then i would have gnome and xubuntu right? [07:07] so i would choose at the login menu? [07:08] yes, [07:08] in that case you could just apt-get install xfce [07:08] err xfce4 [07:08] just change session at login [07:09] yeah [07:09] everythng would still be like the same but with a different DE?

[08:16] I would repartition it correctly and build your filesystem on /dev/sdc1 [08:16] then set a partition label so that it gets mounted correctly [08:17] how can i partition through terminal [08:17] gparted won't let me touch it for some reason [08:17] i'd like the udev rules to stay in place [08:17] so that it's linked to /dev/vds400 [08:18] otherwise it gets mounted in random places [08:18] try cfdisk /dev/sdc [08:18] ah hah! [08:18] mke2fs on /dev/vds400 worked [08:18] i guess once you have those udev rules in place [08:18] you can't use /dev/sdcs1 anymore [08:18] you have to use the link [08:19] are you sure? [08:19] well [08:19] here's the weird thing [08:19] I am almost certain that I did the other day...

[08:20] when it's there, i have access, i can read/write? [08:20] because you created your partition directly on /dev/sdc [08:20] i just did it on /dev/vds400 [08:20] created your filesystem rather [08:20] instead [08:20] which is something i made up from udev rules [08:20] so it has no partition table [08:20] hmmmm. [08:20] is it going to effect me? :P [08:20] if i can still read/write to it? [08:21] this is all way above my head [08:21] you will be fine, if you only care about using it under linux [08:21] i'm playing major guessing games [08:21] that's all i care about [08:21] but i'd like to protect myself from future problems [08:21] and since i don't care about losing data on it now.. now's the time [08:22] so how do i get a partition table [08:22] i just tried cfdisk [08:23] let's see [08:23] wahoo!

[05:01] Exaile is good but a bit slow [05:01] yeah I thought it would be [05:01] gerro: amarok is good, for single file play use mplayer (very memory unintensive), but i prefer banshee [05:02] ah yeah banshee I'll have to try that [05:02] I'm using Rhythmbox at the moment, but... Gnome libs [05:02] gerro: if you don't want all the bells and whistles offered with amarok banshee takes up alot less system resources [05:02] I didn't want to use amarok because of all the kde dependencies [05:02] gerro: banshee is your best alternative [05:02] also what about xmms? [05:02] I don't like it [05:02] gerro: xmms is good but i find it to be unstable when using very large playlists [05:03] gerro: well actually i find it to be unstable quite a bit [05:03] I sorta found it convenient being light and themeable [05:03] magic_ninja: on xubuntu?

And when I installed it I didn't have to use all sorts of weird hacks [05:06] after that: i have to start them manulally + the don't refresh windows (so i'm working with 'static screenshots') [05:06] $ sudo pure-ftpd [05:06] Unable to start a standalone server: Address already in use what does this mean? [05:06] I'm surprised it worked so smooth on this old geforce 5200 nvidia I only got 128mb on it [05:07] i guess it would work on riva tnt :P [05:07] what you mean? [05:08] wlfwhiterabbit: it means something is already using that port, perhaps the server is already running. Try telneting to localhost on that port or perhaps use netcat. See what is running there [05:08] there is no compiz fusion in repos :) [05:08] wlfwhiterabbit: there also some commands to check your ports probably be easier [05:08] Wizard: yeah its most likely going to be included with gutsy [05:08] gerro: thanks. [05:08] ay, fsck that [05:09] Wizard: they doing massive update on xorg and everything else [05:09] i don't think if it will support ppc at all [05:09] Wizard: try checking #ubuntu-effects there this guy whom setup repositories for it [05:10] gerro: i've never used telnet, could you please me tell which command i could use? [05:11] bah.. i'm staying with xfce4wm [05:11] wlfwhiterabbit: try lsof -i [05:12] or just plain lsof and use | less or | grep "search for this" [05:12] wlfwhiterabbit: root might be running something on that port so try running it as root too. I doubt it would be though [05:14] wlfwhiterabbit: ctrl c to exit when your done === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.student.PriceChild] has joined #xubuntu === ablomen [n=ablomen@unaffiliated/ablomen] has joined #xubuntu [05:17] gerro: with lsof -i there's nothing that uses port 20 or 21. doesn't pure-ftpd use port 21? [05:20] there are alternative ports it might be using [05:20] and its generally wise to run an ftpd server on a non standard port [05:21] gerro: i understand what u mean. do you know how i could set the port pure-ftpd will use? [05:22] wlfwhiterabbit: its probably in its documentation found here http://www.pureftpd.org/project/pure-ftpd/doc [05:22] If its a bit over your head I'm sure there plenty of guides floating about or on the forums [05:23] gerro: thanks, i'm sorry i made you make my work! [05:23] wlfwhiterabbit: try this tip it has Now, if you want to listen for an incoming connection on a non-standard port, just append '-S' and the port number: /usr/local/sbin/pure-ftpd -S 42 [05:24] wlfwhiterabbit: also take in consideration some ports require root privileges and you probably wouldn't want to have the program running as root [05:24] generally anything over 1024 is good choice === maxamillion [n=adam@ngl-1-14.shsu.edu] has joined #xubuntu [05:25] wlfwhiterabbit: its no prob I was going to try some ftp servers out myself, I usually use filezilla on windows boxes. [05:26] gerro: you can use filezilla on linux as well [05:27] The newest version [05:27] is filezilla graphic? (i perfectly know that in this case a GUI is a waste of memory, but i have some difficulty with the shell) [05:28] Yes === Laibsch [n=Laibsch@p54B96A11.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #xubuntu [05:36] you can use the graphical interface for file zilla with any ftp server I think though [05:36] they all follow same protocol "ftp" [05:37] wlfwhiterabbit: if you just need a ftp client program, then i would suggest gftp .. its decently light on resources and its gui [05:37] very easy to use and straight forward.... [05:37] maxamillion: unfortunately i need to act as server [05:38] proftpd then... [05:38] also fairly easy to setup [05:39] I just use firefox and ftp:ip:port [05:39] gproftpd if you want a grafical interface [05:39] that why I is a be noob :D === PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.student.PriceChild] has joined #xubuntu [05:41] I've installed FileZilla but it doesn't seem i can act as server... [05:41] ok there gftp, gftp-common, gftp-gtk, and gftp-text [05:41] which do I choose ;_; [05:42] wlfwhiterabbit: umm its a client unless you specifically got the server part, I'd recommend using something different though if your on linux its mainly for windows [05:42] gerro: gftp-gtk === faemir [n=faemir@85-211-16-164.dyn.gotadsl.co.uk] has joined #xubuntu [05:43] maxamillion: too late installed them all! woot!

My 800x600 screen can't take it :( [05:51] run proftpd from inetd or standalone?...
