[00:00] xxx_: doesn't mean its bad though :) [00:00] <[Neurotic]> I'm wondering - is anyone using Hardy Heron yet? If so, how are people finding it? stable? [00:00] if it starts up [00:00] i personaly perfer something which doesnt fragment === Mez|OnAir is now known as Mez [00:00] juano__: yeah but ext3 isnt Windows intended right? [00:00] josiahw: ext3 is linux extended [00:00] ext3 CAN be read well with fs-drive [00:00] on windows [00:00] lol ok guys thank you [00:00] Good evening again! With old HDD, I used to use hdparm to set the parameters. Rigth now though, I have installed Gutsy on toshiba-satellite and doing hdparm -I /dev/sda I get udma5. Is that all right or should I change it (HDD is SATA) Thanks [00:00] josiahw: what is your goal? [00:00] dual boot comp [00:00] mneptok: lol good question [00:00] xxx_: but it ignores permissions too [00:01] is there a way for me to resize my partitions on my windows machine? or would i be better off doing a complete format of the system and installing both? [00:01] RazzoRz:you probably dont want to use the scrrens and graphics thing...if you are using the proprietary ati driver it should install a nice little gui config tool...thats what you want to use...unless you like to edit the xorg.conf by hand ;-) [00:01] <[Neurotic]> josiahw, goarted is your friend [00:01] wols_: i rebooted with your addions to fstab and nothing changed [00:01] *gparted* [00:01] <[Neurotic]> josiahw, gparted* [00:01] ;) [00:01] how does on install the PAE kernel module on an ubuntu feisty server? [00:01] utahvw: not sure where that tool is ... care to help [00:01] [Neurotic]: Ill give it a look [00:02] goldbond_: the mount itself doesn't work as seen with mount /mnt/f [00:02] why i try to talk in skype, the other person dont hear me, i have see the setting , i just cant finde some thing wrong.... [00:02] wols_what could be the problem? is it with the drive? [00:02] will my ubuntu machine use > 4 G ram if i don't have the pae kernel module instaled? [00:02] goldbond_: does /mnt/f exist/ ls -d /mnt/f === xp_lunch is now known as xp_prg [00:02] michelson: ony on x86-64 ubuntu. not in i386 ubuntu [00:02] RazzoRz:sure...it may take a minute...i removed all of the ATI cards infavor of NVIDIA cause of the flaky ati linux support (sorry to say) [00:02] josiahw: there is a really good gparted boot cd, boots up an OS into memory with interactive desktop + gparted only [00:02] who in this channel uses swap exceeding 2 gb? [00:02] Is my internet down? [00:02] there`s something like a how to ubunto into a hp laptop? [00:03] irreducibilis: no. [00:03] josiahw: but for now u can try the normal gparted is good [00:03] sure thing!... [00:03] wols_: shoot. this is a 32 bit system. when i use free i only see 3G ram :( [00:03] wols_: it exists but it is empty [00:03] xxx_: ask a real question [00:03] hey guys a simple question.what does ${@} means?thanks [00:03] there`s something like a how to ubuntu into a hp laptop? [00:03] :P [00:03] georgeb: it held the static IP after reboot [00:03] RazzoRz:i think its ati-xconfig or something like that [00:03] xxx_: and if you need 2GB swap, then you have a problem (unless it's for suspend only) [00:03] juano__: I am downloading the gparted livecd right now from gparted.sourceforge.net right now [00:03] !reapeat | Thiago_Adriano [00:03] Sorry, I don't know anything about reapeat - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [00:03] wols_: when i try to umount it, it says it is not mounted [00:03] michelson: that is normal [00:03] !repeat | Thiago_Adriano [00:03] Thiago_Adriano: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience [00:03] so in ubuntu on a powerpc with a one-button mac mouse how does one remove quick launch shortcuts from top menu bar? [00:03] wols_: can i fix it so it sees all the ram? [00:04] juano__: looks like there is a live usb as well :) [00:04] wols_: but it looks like fdisk detects it? what could be the problem? i am lost. [00:04] No sorry did not work [00:04] take your time [00:04] josiahw: yea i think so too [00:04] michelson: only if you use 64bit ubuntu [00:04] how do I use super user to open a file browser? (Like nautilis) [00:04] wols_: what about the PAE kernel module? [00:04] michelson: do you have a xeon? [00:04] LOL I think i created my own troubles by assuming dhclient was running [00:04] wols_: clovertown [00:04] eddy: gksudo nautilus *adir*} [00:04] msbhvn: the one-button mac mouse is actually a two button mouse depending on how you click it you have to set it up though for that I believe which I have noc lue how to [00:04] no i dont use 2 gig swap i only use 1gb but since i have 1.5 gig ram and the recommended swap is 2x ram then i was just asking ? [00:04] michelson: the -server kernel does not have restricted drivers. [00:04] and testing it after I set the static IP [00:04] michelson: look for a bigmem kernel [00:05] so I STARTED it after setting up the static IP, and then it ran and would renew [00:05] juano__: so if my harddrive has information on it that gets resized will it mess it up? [00:05] we'll see how it works out tomorrow :) [00:05] thanks georgeb [00:05] kitche: press and hold IIRC [00:05] Pici: sorry, so if it doesn't have the restricted drivers, does that mean i can't use the ram > 4 G? === joe_ is now known as joevandyk [00:05] bascule: well that to but that's not what I meant [00:05] wols_: i was hoping it would come with a big mem kernel. it's a dedicated server from a hosting company [00:05] eurowerke: np [00:05] josiahw: you should never resize over the yellow section, which is the data area, partition then will probably be unaccesible [00:05] michelson: it does, but it means that you probably can't use your ati/nvidia/wifi properly. [00:06] juano__: or if I already have a ntfs partition sitting there with nothing on it will ubuntu allow me to install onto that? and not mess up my current Vista installation? [00:06] Pici: well it is a server, so i don't need any of that [00:06] michelson: then I'd use it [00:06] michelson: the server install CD installs the -server kernel by default. [00:06] josiahw: you will need a / partition, and a swap partition at least [00:06] Pici: does that mean the server kernel will use all my ram >4 G? [00:07] josiahw: / can be ext2 or ext3 [00:07] michelson: yes. [00:07] kitche: cool, will google some more [00:07] Pici: but 'top' and 'free' only show less than 4G ram [00:07] juano__: right but cant ubuntu do format and change my current ntfs blank partition? [00:07] josiahw: you have 2 ntfs partitions ? one with vista and the other blank ? [00:07] michelson: are you running the server kernel? does your processor support PAE? [00:07] juano__: yes [00:07] josiahw: then there should be a problem to format the empty one [00:08] Pici: supports PAE, yes, I believe so, intel clovertown cpus, but PAE module isn't installed [00:08] Hey, I am looking for some help with my wireless card in my laptop [00:08] michelson: `cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep pae` should tell you [00:08] juano__: my ntfs partion is 100gb and my blank ntfs partition is 900gb [00:08] wow [00:08] josiahw: wow thats a lot of space [00:08] josiahw: almost a Tera [00:08] juano__: i like big hard drives :) [00:08] is there something like k9copy for gnome [00:08] josiahw: :) [00:08] is a tera [00:08] 1tb niiice [00:08] Pici: yep, it's there :) [00:08] hard drive [00:09] michelson: what does uname -a say? [00:09] i am using a logitech quickcam with 7.10 and the skype beta with video support. the image is very dark. in camorama i can raise the brightness, but the setting won't stick. any chance to do this globally, so that skype will get a brighter picture? [00:09] Pici: 2.6.20-16-386 #2 Sun Sep 23 19:47:10 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux [00:09] josiahw: well youll never worry bout having DVD images in your HDD [00:09] josiahw: lol [00:09] lol [00:09] my wireless chipset is a marvell libertas 88w8335 [00:09] michelson: Well, thats the problem. You are running the -386 kernel, not the -server kernel [00:09] true [00:09] *never* ... I think you will, hddvd is huge [00:09] Pici: shoot. well thanks a lot for your help! much appreciated! [00:10] and opensource aplication like LoadRunner??. Who doesnt knows Load Runner emulates hundreds or thousands of concurrent users in order to performance test how an application operates under these conditions. [00:10] ok but I dont have to do anything before installing ubuntu onto my computer? if i install ubuntu after windows is already on the system will it still bootup with lilo? [00:10] http://pastebin.com/m65cc317a [00:10] ¬¬ i know few ppl who download hddvd , blueray iso's [00:10] josiahw: well anyway, as you can see, if you format the blank partition *if it is really blank and nothing installed from vista on there* then its ok, it would be logically like disconnecting a HDD if you think it [00:10] could some1 ahve a look please [00:10] Is there a myspace IM client for Linux? or one that works for myspace IM? [00:11] josiahw: vista should just recognize the new size [00:11] juano__: im just worried about the bootup i guess... and ubuntu formatting my current windows partition [00:11] anyone here run dual monitors and have separate wallpaper on each one? [00:11] dj_: pidgin maybe does? [00:11] but will vista or lilo boot first? so i can choose which to boot from? [00:11] I'm not sure off the top of my head dj_ [00:11] has anyone got any suggestions? [00:11] josiahw: after you install ubuntu, grub will be installed, then you can boot from grub to your vista [00:11] on what [00:11] because i dont think windows has any dual boot startup programs [00:12] josiah just run the vista cd [00:12] Synx_hm: Are you still there? I can't figure it out either. [00:12] at startup and fix mbr [00:12] !grub | josiahw [00:12] josiahw: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[00:12] it works well on xp should be the same on vista [00:12] Hello. I wonder if anyone here can help me. I'm trying to set up the external monitor on my laptop through the handy 'screens and graphics' application and whichever device I select as the Model for Screen 2, it brings up a file browser with the title "Choose a driver file". It did work previously (with a different screen connected, but still), perhaps my recent 'apt-get autoremove' did more than it should have? [00:12] <[1]renan> !grub 3ddesktop [00:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about grub 3ddesktop - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [00:12] Is it normal for my DNS to cut out for 10 minutes? [00:12] Odd-rationale, got it working with nvidia-settings, however i had a slightly dimmer screen, and i needed to reinstall on a softraid anyways so i dumped the system hehe [00:12] And btw.... How do I get my name back?

Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone. [00:12] xxx_: vista uses a new thing, not ntldr called bootmgr [00:12] hello ..

[00:15] hey trying to open up a .torrent from a tracker, I already have the files, I just want to seed using ktorrent. thanks. [00:15] [1]renan: Yeah, that's not particualrly useful; you don't need it. [00:15] josiahw: 8.04 is in the first alpha release, definitly not suitable for users at this point. [00:15] <[1]renan> cafuego, then how do i install and get it? [00:15] josiahw: it is beta [00:15] !hardy [00:15] you need to get compiz [00:15] josiahw: up to 7.10 gutsy is stable [00:15] Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu [00:15] newps: were you running a program under wine when this happened? [00:15] Odd-rationale: Alpha. [00:15] ok cool [00:15] [1]renan: it comes preinstalled on Gutsy (7.10). [00:15] sorry alpha [00:15] nop and i have rebooted [00:15] it's an application called FireStarter [00:16] i'm installing [00:16] im new to ubuntu 5 day experience. is fedora an advanced version of ubuntu cos ive read it in a few forums? [00:16] ops [00:16] <[1]renan> cafuego, how do i get it? [00:16] xxx_, nope [00:16] xxx_ No. [00:16] the fglx driver seems hosed to me [00:16] [1]renan: it comes preinstalled on Gutsy (7.10). [00:16] Do you think it would be ok to go with the 64bit 7.10? Or should I stick to the 32bit? I have a dualcore 64bit and would love to use it but if im going to have a bunch of driver issues I wont. [00:16] [1]renan: You may need to install `compizconfig-settings-manager' for the more advanced prefs. [00:16] <[1]renan> cafuego, how do i install? [00:16] josiahw: use i386 [00:16] xxx_ Fedora is Red Hat's side project (based off of the afore mentioned) while Ubuntu is based off of Debian. [00:16] josiahw: use the 32-bit [00:17] magnetron: ahh.... does the 64bit version at least show a good performance increase? [00:17] mneptok>> non, je devrais ? [00:17] magnetron: course i guess it doesnt matter if im not going to be gaming on Ubuntu [00:17] mneptok>> je vais faire ca vite fais, merci [00:17] side project ? does that mean its not that good whats their core project ? [00:17] P_Kable: sudo apt-get install thunderbird-locale-fr === makuserusukotto is now known as makuseru [00:17] compiz comes installed but like you said you need to get the advance dektop settings [00:17] xxx_: fedora is in the free philosophy of software, red hat is getting more commercial with enterprise [00:18] :( then baad [00:18] josiahw: some, it's good for servers. but they don't make Flash or Java for ubuntu 32-bit [00:18] I have installed Ubuntu 7.10 and now I cannot connect to some application. I want to see if there is something blocking... something like Firewall ..how can I see ? [00:18] :P [00:18] !firewall [00:18] Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). [00:18] P_Kable: et de rien. [00:18] esqueleto: Did you install or configure a firewall? [00:18] Hi, I used to be able to double click on the desktop and get all my sticky notes to hide, but now I can't. I have to specifically go to the sticky notes icon, open the menu and hide them from there. Anyway around this? or even configuring for those notes to always stay hidden on startup? Thanks [00:18] josiahw: sorry, i meant "they don't make Flash or Java for ubuntu 64-bit" [00:18] in apache which file allows me to set my ServerName ? [00:18] I think no ... [00:19] but how can I see it [00:19] s/Java/working\ Java/ [00:19] if only manufacturers gave better support for unix systems :( [00:19] xxx_ I used Fedora back when the third installment was released. Personally I like Ubuntu better, as the community is very friendly and it works for me. [00:19] esqueleto: Then there are no firewall rules. (Check with 'sudo iptables -L -n -v' in a terminal window) [00:19] xxx_: i agree with that one [00:19] xxx_: x fedora user here too [00:19] magnetron: ok... another issue Im guessing im going to run into and my wireless card... something I wish linux would get a hold of is hardware drivers.... or rather I wish hardware manufacturers would work on [00:19] mneptok>> same problem, it won't appear in the list :( [00:19] i think the core reason ppl dont switch so easily to linux is becouse of the compatibility [00:19] P_Kable: did you restart T-bird? [00:19] with hardware [00:20] xxx_➲ and thats becoming a mute point [00:20] xxx_ It is also ALOT easier if you just dedicate 100% of your computer to Linux. [00:20] cafuego, i think no ..

I just got a Logitech Marble Mouse trackball, and I've got the smaller left button mapped to hold down for scrolling. Is it possible to have it set up where a single click on the small left/right buttons will act as back/forward, and holding them down will allow me to scroll with the trackball?

[01:34] i am looking [01:34] ok [01:34] I never do it on purpose, and when I do it by accident it freaks me out. [01:35] they are being created automatically [01:35] with names like... _________? [01:35] localgod11: the files are \etc\network\interfaces [01:35] scrambled junk [01:35] In any case, should there be a PAE kernel in Ubuntu because NX is enabled by default in Windows and NX requires PAE? [01:36] PirateHead: good question, it irritates me also.. anyone? [01:37] any ideas on why these folders are being created? [01:37] So is there an option i can pass on the Ubuntu Live cd to start without X [01:37] ? [01:38] helluvaCSMajor: how are the folders named? [01:38] scrambled symbols, not even letters [01:38] they appear random [01:38] peterhs is the command sudo gedit \et\network\interfaces [01:39] scguy318: I feel pretty stupid: it's possible that I was pressing the 'add' button rather than 'ok' at one point. I should stop trying these things at 1am... need to restart / log off to test. Thanks again... [01:39] Truz , you should get the alternate CD [01:39] it gives a text only installer [01:39] k [01:39] no, you forgot the c in the /etc/network/interfaces [01:40] Hey all, quick question, how do I control what shows up in my list of mountable partitions? On the side of Nautilus' explorer it shows a list of all of my drives, but I'd like to remove some [01:40] you can copy the commands directly from the website [01:40] localgod11: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202834 this might help around step 2-3 [01:41] Someone was playing with my keyboard layout and now the right-hand ALT key doesn't work... can I auto detect my keyboard again? [01:41] Thesmyth: edit your fstab [01:41] I wonder why there aren't as many kernels in Ubuntu as in Debian. [01:41] peterhsi run iw config it sees my wireless as eth2? [01:42] hi I am having big problems with my display. Xorg is configured to display at 1024x768 (native display of my laptop) however, I only get an 800x600 desktop which is tiled on my screen, (super weird) I go to system>preferences>screen resolution and it only gives me options 640x480 & 800x600. both of which have been deleted from my xorg. [01:42] I did already, they don't mount automatically, thy just show up in the left side of nautilus with the option to mount [01:42] any ideas what i should do about the random folders? [01:42] that is okay, just edit the config files to use eth2 and erase all others unless you use a wired connection [01:43] zoexii, system->admin->screen&graphics? [01:43] LapatiK, ok, will try [01:43] How do I preview a sound file with a mouse hover? I've somehow lost that ability. I think I screwed something up in my Gconf-editor but I dont know were or what option [01:44] is anyone familiar with mounting windows partitions? [01:44] I've never had any problem with mounting windows stuff [01:44] that's a very odd problem though :P [01:45] helluva: fat32 or ntfs? [01:45] when i did, random folders starting showing up in my home folder, i don't know why [01:45] did you try to mount to ~? [01:45] helluva: unsure how to solve [01:45] i don't know what i did, i am a new linux user, i followed a tutorial [01:45] peterhs when i run a network restart it says failed to bring up eth2 no such device [01:45] sounds like you mounted the windows drive to your home directory [01:45] did you edit any files or just type a command? [01:46] ie sudo mount /place/to/windows /home/helluvaCSmajor [01:46] i don't remember, i can access it in the drives folder, but the home folder contains empty folders with symbols as names [01:46] hmm [01:46] <_MattB> i created a raid array (md0) with mdadm, how can i totally get rid of it now? [01:46] localgod11: type ifconfig into the terminal [01:46] when you ls -ls who is the owner/group? [01:46] then try iwconfig [01:47] do you have eth2? [01:47] ok [01:47] what could cause gnome to start very slowly? Or cause most programs to start slower...is there any standard maintenance procedure like defragging to keep the system running smooth? [01:47] eth2 is the wieless [01:47] i don't have one, i deleted them right before going on here, i delete them every day because they fill up the folder [01:47] id says it find the device [01:48] well, not every day, every week maybe [01:48] after restarting the connection and typing iwconfig, does eth2 show up? [01:48] yes [01:48] hi. in my laptop (7.10) i've sound only on my headphone but not on the laptopboxes. [01:49] is there a way to check every directory setting related to mounting a partition? [01:49] helluva: if you type the command "mount" what does it say? [01:49] localgod11: type these commands sudo ifdown eth2 sudo ifup eth2 [01:49] helluvaCSMajor: u can cat /etc/fstab [01:49] a lot of stuff [01:49] should i? [01:49] that will restart the adapter manually [01:49] helluva: if you know the name of the windows partition [01:50] just give me the line with that in it [01:50] hello [01:51] hi [01:51] how do I use a .rpm file on ubuntu [01:51] hello [01:51] !rpm | Metalgod89 [01:51] Metalgod89: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system.

[02:47] pestilence: well i just got this new dvd burner and im not sure if ubuntu installed the right drivers for it [02:48] Donka: i don't think drivers are all that important for ATAPI cdroms [02:48] my screensaver doesnt work screen just goes blank [02:48] nixNewb: there is some cool info..though not VNC on ltsp on the net. [02:49] oh, could it be a faulty driver ? [02:49] can someone lend a hand, im having some weird issues with the broadcom firmware on an AMD64 [02:49] cflopez: thats the wireless?? [02:49] yup [02:49] spydabyte: do u have a static ip? [02:49] i got it working then after rebooting the system, poof, gone [02:49] pestilence: i ment could my dvd burner be faulty?? [02:49] Budda|: maybe you have to install the "madwifi" drivers? [02:50] mnemonica: check that your universe repo is enabled [02:50] mnemonica: System -> Admin -> Software Sources [02:50] yes [02:50] cflopez: they are a pain..you can either try fwcutter or try to use ndiswrapper. [02:50] Donka: it certainly could. did you try googling the error that it gives you [02:50] achandrashekar: do you have to boot a computer with it? [02:50] i tried them both and they didnt seem to work [02:50] i got it working by a sheer miracle... i found the restricted driver thing and activated it, next thing i know its working [02:50] Budda|: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=38972 [02:50] pestilence: 'sudo apt-get install madwifi'? [02:50] pestilence: i am as we speak [02:50] that's pretty old, though. [02:50] it asked me to reboot and then it wasnt working again [02:51] how do I change the driver being used for X through the console (ie, if X is failing to load because I tried to switch from proprietary ATI driver to the open one) === tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso [02:51] Budda|: i don't know. but it seems that is what people use for the atheros chipset-based cards [02:51] I need to revert to select the proprietary driver [02:51] achandrashekar: yep..that is correct. it uses bootp mechanism, pulls up a dhcp address and uses network resources and pulls up the system. God that is a shitty explanation, but you get the idea. [02:51] Rafabe: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [02:51] scguy: I did. Didn't fix it. [02:51] Rafabe: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg if you just want defaults with driver selection [02:51] cflopez: is the driver using fwcutter? [02:51] thanks sc [02:51] spydabyte: u'r sure your router isn't under dhcp? coz it's the only problem i can think of so far.. [02:52] cflopez: or is trying to use the native driver some how. [02:52] i tried it both ways [02:52] why does tab completio nnot work in 'grub' on latest ubuntu? [02:52] native drive worked, i couldnt use the fwcutter to work [02:52] cflopez: this forum has been inundated with bcm stuff..which usually gets resolved by using ndiswrapper [02:52] sunogbaga : how exatcly do i tell [02:53] Budda|: your other option is to use ndiswrapper. [02:53] my snooping around the forums showed the same thing, always ndiswrapper [02:53] spydabyte: what's the ip of your router? [02:53] 192.168.0.1 [02:53] spydabyte: if it's 192.x.x.x or 10.x.x.x then your under dhcp [02:53] cflopez: right...the bcm stuff is very propietary..and the g'damn windows driver seems to the best choice [02:53] sunogbaga: not necessarily [02:53] spydabyte: you'll have to contact your isp [02:53] Why will not my Screen Resolution Refresh Rate setting stay? It boots into 50mHz not matter how may times I change to 96 mHz??? [02:54] i think it is dhcp [02:54] why is that ? [02:54] scguy318: Universe repository has been enabled. [02:54] last time i called em about a unix issue they said ha what u want us to do [02:54] mnemonica: then do sudo aptitude install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 [02:54] but i cant seem to get past step 14 of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201902 [02:54] cflopez: id dig around a bit though on sites...you'll want that biatch to start on boot. and not have to invoke it once the system starts...there is a write up for that as well... [02:54] my screensaver doesnt work screen just goes blank [02:54] narothepharoh: does it work when you preview it?

Just ask your question :) [02:55] robdig yes [02:55] not have to invoke it once the system starts..... i think im lost [02:55] right but shouldnt i be able to port forward or dmz that box ... so public can get to it ... [02:55] scguy318: I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , it mentioned writing default files. I then rebooted. I got as far as the "loading local boot scripts" screen, then nothing happens. [02:55] its like my windows box [02:55] i open port 21 to use ftp [02:55] cflopez: that should tell you if the driver is claimed [02:55] step 14 that is..

Got this ---> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47782/ [02:56] yes [02:56] sunogbaga: if you hook two computers via crosswire, and assign them an IP in the 192.168.0.0/16 or 10.0.0.0/8 range, that's not really using DHCP :P [02:56] hi hi :) [02:56] mnemonica: close Synaptic [02:56] scguy318: "crossover" ;) [02:56] mneptok: ty :) [02:56] scguy318: heh... *is ashamed* [02:56] Hi, anyone think they can give me a hand.

Then I got to thinking it would be great if I could stream this stuff, so I would not need to download stuff and wait for it [03:09] . is this possible? what software would I need? how much work would the server be doing, and how much horsepower would it need? [03:09] cflopez: refuses to remove? [03:09] spydabyte: what problem are you having? [03:09] it said its already installed and I copy/pasted the command you gave me [03:09] insllvn:mythtv [03:09] sh baudline gives: baudline: 1: ELF 0: not found baudline: 2: Syntax Error: "(" unexpected [03:09] ok i am installing ubuntu 7.10 onto my windows machine...

[03:22] pestilence, let me reinstall it [03:22] david_J: it is indeed not mounted [03:22] notwen: apt-get install build-essential [03:22] spydabyte: what do you need help with? [03:22] How do I uninstall wicd, and reinstall the default network monitor thing? [03:22] marnanel: man fuser or lsof [03:22] is there anything in ssh config or sshd config that may need changing after installing it ? u said yes .. im wondering what [03:22] is there any way that I can get libstdc++.so.5 without an internet connection on my ubuntu machine? [03:23] spydabyte: have you looked at the config files? [03:23] i have [03:23] david_J: what am I looking for? I know how to use fuser and lsof; am I checking nobody has a lock on /dev/sda3? [03:23] supersoundguy, download it on the box youre on NOW and put it on disk, sneakernet [03:23] supersound: jumpdrive [03:23] spydabyte: and you don't see anything that needs changing? [03:23] pestilence, http://pastebin.com/d595e196d [03:23] pestilence, seems like its there [03:23] danc3: not surte what im looking for to be honest [03:23] marnanel: yeah basically.. then I'd try to fsck /dev/sda3 [03:23] any developers? [03:23] D-Elite: you need libssl-dev, the development files. [03:23] spydabyte: well, read them again, they're well commented [03:24] we'll wait [03:24] jwd: of what? [03:24] D-Elite: how about just running apt-get build-dep libssh2 ? [03:24] anything [03:24] jwd: plenty, what's up? [03:24] how can I find files containing "string" in a rep? [03:24] hello [03:24] I need an opinion on a app to develop with [03:24] err [03:24] mudore: man grep [03:24] D-Elite: libssh-2 [03:24] How do I uninstall wicd, and reinstall the default network monitor thing?

[03:24] that would bring in all the dependencies. [03:24] danc3, thx [03:24] thats only thing i could possibly see would be [03:25] !patience | Budda| [03:25] Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you.

[03:26] hi [03:26] ya think [03:26] just alias vi to vim [03:26] and I'm good [03:27] jwd: if you install vim it aliases vi to vim. this is true.

[03:28] i dunno im lost totaly [03:29] Budda|, open synaptic, search for wicd, tell it to uninstall, and then select the default one and tell that to install (I don't know what the default one is called) [03:29] Just in the last 30 minutes or so, Evolution stopped loading. I get the "Starting Evolution" in the taskbar. Then, it disappears and nothing. I can see it running in the processes tho. Any suggestions?

It's in my fstab.....can anyone offer some suggestions? [03:32] danc3- as in no more? [03:32] spydabyte: i mean on your windows box, try to telnet host 22 [03:32] Hubris2: does it say "noauto" in the fstab? [03:32] pestilence: No [03:32] Hubris2: what happens when you manually mount it? i.e. sudo mount /mountpoint [03:32] yuaoki: as in "dead", it's a common indication on a Dell [03:32] josiahw, hint, I'd use google rather then searching ubuntu, if you want hints specific to ubuntu, make sure to add ubuntu linux to the end of your search string :) [03:33] /dev/sda2 /media/data ext3 defaults,locale=en_US.utf8 0 1 [03:33] same step, different story... i dumped the drivers in the home folder and i got this when i tried to install them couldn't open /home/charlie/home/charlie/bcmwl564.inf: No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper line 217. === tonyy is now known as tonyyarusso [03:33] I thought the 1 at the end of the line meant it was to mount automatically? [03:33] Hubris2: no, that has to do with what time it is mounted. [03:33] Guys... do you think its normal to have a 3com marvell 940 ethernet chip onboard, knowing it is working... and lspci not even showing it? anyonw as had any issue similar to this ? [03:34] Hubris2: nope [03:34] pestilence: wrong [03:34] pestilence: I want it mounted before I sign in.....what should I have? [03:34] Hubris2: man mount, man fstab [03:35] Hubris2: hint: "auto" [03:35] its obv a config problem with ssh itself has to be due to fact .. when i tried to use 6.016 or whatever it is .... it went onlien fine to get updates and upgrade [03:35] Hubris2: well, it should be 2 if it's not your root partition. i think. [03:35] pestilence: strike 2 [03:36] !home [03:36] Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome [03:36] danc3: I will read the manpages....what I don't understand, is why other partitions in the fstab are mounting automatically (and don't have the word auto) but this is not [03:36] danc3: boy oh boy you are helpful. [03:36] wow place is hoppin [03:36] pestilence: yes, I am [03:36] Can anyone please help me? [03:36] pestilence: and the advice I give is correct, unlike yours [03:36] danc3: from the man page: The sixth field, (fs_passno), is used by the fsck(8) program to determine the order in which filesystem checks are done at reboot time. [03:36] spydabyte: You don't need to change anything in the sshd config, you just need to make sure your port forwarding properly [03:36] danc3: well, at least i give it with a smile. [03:36] Can anyone tell me what my localhost password is on Ubuntu? I'm trying to remove a printer from the list but it requires the password. Thank you. Also, I did not set one if that may help. :) [03:36] pestilence: it has to do with dumping the file system, not mounting [03:37] is anyone fairly familiar with VirtualBox? [03:37] great now i cant even ssh using internal up now .. connection refused [03:37] is there any way to remote desktop from a pc running windows into my machine at home running gutsy? [03:37] Can anyone tell me what my localhost password is on Ubuntu? I'm trying to remove a printer from the list but it requires the password. Thank you. Also, I did not set one if that may help. :) [03:37] Turnet: your login password [03:37] danc3: he was referring to the sixth field. [03:37] danc3: so, bzzz, you are wrong ;) [03:37] danc3 my login password didn't work. :S [03:37] spydabyte: revert whatever changes you've made to your sshd configurations. [03:37] sec [03:37] is there a use in having /home anymore? or should it just all be under /? [03:38] josiahw: Erm. There's every point in the world in having /home [03:38] danc3 my login password didn't work. :s [03:38] josiahw: /home for your home stuff [03:38] pestilence: Indeed, I was referring to the sixth field. According to the manpage, as you stated, it should be set to 2 for non-root [03:38] Turnet: don't know then [03:38] josiahw: Ah, you mean for a separate partition? Yeah, because it allows you to reinstall around it. [03:38] Ok thanks anyone else? Can anyone tell me what my localhost password is on Ubuntu? I'm trying to remove a printer from the list but it requires the password. Thank you. Also, I did not set one if that may help. [03:38] danc3: well, whaddaya know [03:38] pffft [03:38] Hubris2: so, what happens when you try to mount it manually? [03:38] how large of a partition (if you had a lot of hard drive space) would you allocate for /? [03:39] Hubris2: sudo mount /media/data ? [03:39] josiahw: about 80% of it [03:39] and then about 2gb of /swap and the rest in /home im guessing [03:39] Turnet its your root password [03:39] josiahw: 20GB will be more than you'll ever need. 10GB is more than liekly sufficient. [03:39] Flannel: how do you know that? [03:39] anyone? [03:39] danc3: Know what? [03:39] I didn't set a root password wirechief. [03:39] pestilence: It works just fine. I have configured a daemon to start with init.d that points at the mount point, so mounting manually is too late [03:39] Flannel: that 10G is enough? [03:39] Turnet well set one [03:39] ok so 20gb into /, 2gb into swap, and 878gb of /home? [03:40] danc3: Because you'd be hard pressed to fill 10GB with the stuff from the repos [03:40] Flannel: my / partition is 200GB and it's getting full [03:40] But I've heard it is dangerous to my system to set one. (I'm new to Ubuntu) :) [03:40] josiahw: Unless you want a separate partition for /var or anything [03:40] wow i cant belive why this is so hard for me [03:40] Flannel: dont think so [03:40] Hubris2: hrmm.. then perhaps changing the 1 to a 2 will fix it. i can't explain why else it wouldn't mount. the default is "auto", so adding that after "defaults" isn't going to change anything (danc3, wanna tell me i'm wrong again?) [03:40] danc3: And you must not have a separate home. [03:40] josiahw: Well, you can always add one later if need be. [03:40] Strangely, my laptop display blanks after 1 minute idle... but all preferences that I can find say about 11 minutes. Did I miss a setting? [03:40] Turnet its dangerous if you use Ubuntu, but not any of the other distros so what does that tell you? [03:40] Flannel: I do [03:41] hhhhhhhhh [03:41] Turnet: it is no more dangerous to set a root password in Ubuntu than in any other distro. [03:41] Bridge mode : Enable [03:41] danc3: Then I can't say I believe you. What on earth is using the majority of that? Gotta be runaway logs or something. [03:41] NAT mode : Enable [03:41] Router mode : Enable [03:41] NAT Router mode : Enable [03:41] Turnet: (also no less.) [03:41] CableHome 1.1 mode : Enable [03:41] Why? [03:41] Flannel: when you install most games for example, they go under /, and they are many GB's in size [03:41] right now its set as nat ... [03:41] should i change to be dif ? [03:41] Oh I see what you mean. [03:41] Turnet: Root passwords are really unnecessary these days. [03:41] holas [03:41] spydabyte: Just make sure your router is forwarding port 22 properly. [03:41] ok i can ssh back in using int ip [03:42] still dont help me tho [03:42] !aptfix [03:42] Flannel: nearly anything you install goes into /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin , both of which are under "/" [03:42] Flannel: which is why it's a good idea to do 2 things. 1) use lvm. 2) have a /usr/local partition. [03:42] If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [03:42] ugh... this wireless problem calls for bottles upon bottles of gin [03:42] i tried to dmz it Flannel and it still didnt work [03:42] Marnanel, I wanted to remove a printer but it is asking for a localhost password. Isn't that the root password? [03:42] Speaking of which: What is the default password for the root account on postgresql 8.2? [03:42] Flannel: or /usr [03:42] marnanel he is trying to use the web based printer cupsys he needs root password [03:42] hey ! [03:42] danc3: I'm well aware of that. You'd still be hard pressed to fill 20GB [03:42] Flannel: LOL [03:42] need a little help [03:42] wrong [03:42] Yes, what wirechief said. :) [03:42] i filled my 5005 gig in 3 days :) [03:42] 500* [03:43] looking for a wireless networking ubuntu channel... any ideas?? [03:43] Flannel: do you play games like Quake4, Doom3, UT2004, etc? [03:43] Turnet: ah, I have no idea about cupsys, but properly-written software should do something sudo-like these days [03:43] Flannel: they're huge [03:43] Turnet you have to decide if you want to set it. i know i do. but that is my thing. [03:43] a wifi related channel... [03:43] Ok I will set it I guess. [03:43] How may I do that? [03:43] for ubuntu... [03:43] any ideas? [03:43] alitadeposca: you have found it. [03:43] excellent... [03:44] Turner navigagte from system to user/groups [03:44] pestilence:need a little help to get my audit toolkit set [03:44] Ok [03:44] Turner in there you will find a way to set it. [03:44] spydabyte: There's nothing in the ssh configurations that'll stop it from working. Only router issues, or maybe the wrong IP. [03:44] I installed postgresql 8.2 because today at work I decided I liked it much more than mysql. However, I was never prompted for account preferences and my current login has no role created for it. Is there a generic account I can use to access it? [03:45] well danc3 and sunogbaga for trying to help me ... i think im a. explaining it wrong ... or noone is actually understanding what i mean .. sry to have taken up al lthe time u guys could have helped other but now im pissed, and now this has officially turned me away from unix so now im goign to stri pthe pos box and throw it where it belongs in dumpster [03:45] how can scan recursively a rep with grep for a string? [03:45] !ask | alitadeposca [03:45] sample please [03:45] Yes wirechief I got it! Thanks a lot for the help. :) [03:45] thanks* [03:45] already got aircrack-ng pack running, but, since i'm trying to audit WPA2 networks i think i could something else... [03:45] ok FloodBot3 [03:45] spydabyte: lol [03:45] erm [03:45] alitadeposca: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) [03:45] Turnet ok well good luck with your printer settings what printer are you using ? [03:45] spydabyte: you're giving up that easily? [03:45] wow, ubotu you are slow.

[03:46] lol [03:46] the only reason this is windows is casue its a loner till i get other one working [03:46] Oh, did you experience the same problems as me? [03:46] Hello, I am trying to install Ubuntu 7.10 and it is taking a really long time for the Partition Manager to come up. It went all the way to 100% on the "starting it up" dialog, but it is not going to the next screen. Is that normal? [03:46] !postgresql [03:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about postgresql - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [03:46] sry for language [03:46] * mnemonica hugs spydabyte [03:46] but im so agetaed right now [03:47] agetaed? [03:47] MokonaSan: do you meet the minimum required hardware? [03:47] Wirechief, I tried my new root password for localhost, it still did not work. :( [03:47] see cant even spell [03:47] Turnet i have reinstalled mine routinely now many times [03:47] its a word like very aggervated [03:47] bah [03:47] see [03:47] agitated? [03:47] spydabyte: maybe that's what's wrong with your config files [03:47] MokonaSan: i have had semi-older machines take forever to load the gutsy installer [03:47] agitated [03:47] Oh any reasons as to why? [03:47] Turnet use user root and then passwd [03:48] danc3 i havent messed with no config files [03:48] pestilence: let me look at the minimum reqs. I would think I meet them. [03:48] i dont dare afraid ill break it even worse [03:48] Ok [03:48] spydabyte: I thought you were editing the SSH config files [03:48] can anyone tell me why konsole's transparent background wouldn't work? [03:48] no u told me to take a look and figure it out [03:48] spydabyte: what exactly is your problem, anyway? [03:48] i tried fiucked it up had to reset it [03:48] spydabyte: cool down dude.. [03:48] poop [03:48] sry for language again [03:48] Wirechief: It only asks for the password of localhost. I even tried 'root' but it didn't work. [03:48] spydabyte: what isn't working for you? [03:49] ok danc3 ill try and explain this one more time best i can .... [03:49] ok [03:49] i'm trying to get started with wireless network audit. I've got backtrack 2, but i'd like ubuntu to do all that itself. Got aircrack-ng working on my 7.10, but since i'm looking forward to audit WPA2 i believe i could use both some other apps and tutorials, any suggestions? thanks. [03:49] alitadeposca: www.google.com [03:49] best i know of. [03:49] Turnet im trying to get setup for pm === wirechief is now known as wirechief4 [03:50] wirechief, what's pm? [03:50] it says it requires 256MB of RAM and I have 512, so I should be good on that [03:50] ibanez: there's a lot of great stuff and a lot of junk around the web, any ubuntu specific apps/tutorials? [03:50] i can from this windows box ssh into ubuntu box ONLY by using 192.168.0.10, my buddy who lives in florida has tried to ssh in ...sometimes he gets nothing .. soemtimes he gets login puts in corect info but says password failed ....i try and use my real ip of 24.* and all i get is timed out ... [03:50] MokonaSan: another possibility is corrupted media (i.e. bad cd). you could try running the media check [03:51] spydabyte: are you behind a router? [03:51] i have used ie to get into my router and forward port 23 [03:51] alitadeposca: im only familiar with the backtrack2 programs, im not sure about the ubuntu related mate, sorry :( [03:51] port 22 excuse me [03:51] both protocols [03:51] spydabyte: is he using a valid login name? [03:51] pestilence: i'll wait a little longer I guess. maybe it's just slow [03:51] yes [03:51] i even made one for him [03:51] MokonaSan: sounds like a plan. [03:52] spydabyte: it has to be a problem with the port forwarding [03:52] ibanez:thanx anyway.... [03:52] can you ssh in from the local LAN using his login name? [03:52] but i use ie to log into router and DMZ the host and still dont work [03:52] yes [03:52] sorry i couldn't help more alitadeposca [03:52] ok, then it MUST be a problem with port forwarding [03:52] spydabyte: funny, i can ssh to your machine. [03:53] spydabyte: i can too [03:53] or, at least to the machine you are using irc from. [03:53] lol [03:53] haha very funny [03:53] btw spydabyte wheres ur ftp server?

[03:54] i dunno how much more i can open this port i mean if dmz dont open it then [03:55] mudore: "scan recursively a rep"? What does that mean? [03:55] PMantis: have you checked the settings in /etc/acpi/...? [03:55] spydabyte: it doesn't need to be on a DMZ [03:55] can anyone paste a sample off how to scan recursively a dir ? like find all files contening a "str" [03:55] where can i find JVM V1.5 or greater [03:55] grep -R "str" . [03:55] i get a password prompt spydabyte [03:56] linuxuser: sun.java.com [03:56] for your machine [03:56] mudore: ls /dir | grep str [03:56] or find . | xargs grep str [03:56] k thanks [03:56] so it does connect. [03:56] wait, are you looking for str in the filename, or in the contents of th file?

[03:59] pestilence: I just looked... saw screenblank.sh... it pointed to /etc/default/acpi-support ... nothing there rings a bell. [03:59] it's not powered down [03:59] just almost timed out [03:59] spydabyte: is it still turned off? [03:59] honk_: Try the 'xrandr' command. It can set unusual geometries on Intel graphics hardware. [03:59] spydabyte: coz i can ssh to it?

[04:01] Okay got that to work. Now, can someone help me use the Ubuntu installation partitioner to create a new partition out of the free space of an existing one? I have an existing NTFS partition and i want to turn its free space into an ext2 partition? [04:01] spydabyte: told you ur under dhcp [04:01] spydabyte: perhaps your router runs linux? [04:01] Is Gutsy supposed to have /proc/pci? [04:01] spydabyte: it for the machine you're currently on.. do you know it has ssh installed? [04:02] stroyan: isn't that just for X displays, though? [04:02] the machine i am on right now is no way ssh is installed on it [04:02] spydabyte: there are a bunch of linksys routers that run linux and have ssh installed. [04:02] spydabyte: we are sshing to another machine, is this the ip? 24.169.175.165 [04:02] i dont have linsys [04:02] its ambit [04:02] spydabyte: is that your ip? [04:02] no thats not my ip [04:02] so i installed 7.10, went to adept manager and found some "upgradable" packages, so I went ahead and upgrade. The packages seems to be downloaded correctly, but there were errors in the installation. [04:02] spydabyte: ok, then. we are ssh'ing to the box that you are connect to irc through [04:03] spydabyte: you gave me that awhile ago.. :( [04:03] i never gave u that as my ip [04:03] lol [04:03] Spydabyt@cpe-24-169-175-165.stny.res.rr.com [04:03] i got a pop up box sayign there was some error, and i try to update again, but now "upgradable" package is 0. [04:03] spydabyte: you shouldn't be so scared. it's all published information. try this: /whois spydabyte [04:03] no but /whois showed it, so i ssumed. [04:03] no one is here to hurt, just help [04:03] spydabyte: we are trying to help dude [04:03] honk_: It is. When you wrote console I interpreted that as X server. I don't see any particular problem with the text console. Are you trying to get a smaller font? [04:03] when you connect to the internet, you are transmitting your location. like it or not. [04:04] how do install a camera ??? [04:04] i'm pretty sure the packages are not all updated already... [04:04] danc3, I m looking for something like : grep -R dirname/ 'pathern' (something able to look in to sub directory) [04:04] stroyan: well unfortunately I'm on a widescreen LCD, I'd like to have that native resolution; I've tried every kernel option on the planet; and nothing works [04:04] digitalsky: try running sudo apt-get -f install [04:04] Hi room, anyone know if its possible to use named ranges within functions with OpenOffice.org Calc? (ie: start:finish, as opposed to A1:A6) [04:04] either it says the video mode must be set at boot time (which I thought it was...) or various other vague errors [04:04] pestilence: thanks for your response. is that a known problem? [04:04] okay going to try and write a dumb a*s AJAX app now [04:05] any experts? [04:05] mudore, I gave you two possible command sequences - but I asked a followup question - do you want to look for str in the filename, or for str in the file data? [04:05] digitalsky: well, it is well-known that sometimes apt encounters problems, if that's what you mean :-D [04:05] digitalsky: and apt-get install -f attempts to fix those problems [04:05] oh ok. but the cmd line apt-get is better? [04:05] -f = force [04:05] not fix [04:05] jwd: man apt-get [04:05] jwd: join #prototype [04:05] rradfor, file data [04:06] Is Gutsy supposed to have the file /proc/pci, and if it is, why doesn't mine? [04:06] jwd: -f, --fix-broken === salmenara is now known as Varanger [04:06] what is with people not trusting tonight? [04:06] holy cow. [04:06] i think that means its time for me to go. [04:06] then grep will do it: grep -R pattern dirname [04:06] rradfor, *.php files [04:06] * jwd stands corrected [04:07] then you can even do grep -R pattern direname/*.php [04:07] sorry pest [04:07] honk_: Did you try the vga=ask kernel option and get some choices? [04:07] okay one last time [04:07] exit [04:07] any AJAX or mysql gurus [04:07] jwd: np. you are the third person to sound an alarm. must be my nick [04:07] haha [04:08] stroyan: yes I did, they were only colxrow options; of which I tried all. The actual resolution didn't change, just the fonts really. I also tried obscure vga modes from hwinfo --framebuffer [04:08] ok i need to reboot this cmpt to get to my ubuntu... [04:08] http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-10294.html <-- this is kinda my problem [04:08] i hope that works. thanks for the help pest and jwd [04:08] digitalsky: good luck. i'm out. [04:08] no prob [04:08] how can i install my camera? it is not reading it [04:08] but i nmever get an accepoted thing [04:08] usb obviously?? [04:08] hi [04:08] rradfor, thx its works [04:08] on one terminal, i do nc -l -p 12345 > pipe, where pipe is a named pipe, and on other echo "a" | nc localhost 12345. but i got connection refused. why is it? [04:09] naro: usb? [04:09] of course it is [04:09] I need to runa program as root as soon as my computer turns on. Can anyone tell me how to set it up to do that automatically? [04:09] stroyan: I'm guessing I need specific framebuffer support for the intel 945GM? [04:10] does anyone know what the memory requirements of xfce are compared to kde4? [04:10] ice109, they are much lower [04:10] how do I setup xorg? [04:10] !xorg [04:10] The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto [04:10] devils set it up in rc1.d or rc2.d [04:10] whats the best way to install dual boot and install windows after installation of ubuntu. I know installing ubuntu after is the best way to do it, but that option is out. [04:10] devilsadvocate theres an article on digg that says that the mem requirements for kde4 are 39% less than kde3 [04:10] hmm is there a command to setup xorg while in console? [04:10] as a shell script [04:11] jwd, /etc/rc1.d ? [04:11] honk_: The 915resolution package _might_ be able to set a native resolution vesa mode that the console could use. [04:11] dn4: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver" I think [04:11] might be too early [04:11] I would say rc2.d [04:11] ice109, xfce4 will still be lower on memory [04:11] k [04:12] jwd, thanks. what is rc2.d, anyway? [04:12] dn4: "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" might have reversed it :-( [04:12] kelsin: hmm xorg-xserver not found [04:12] * jwd grins [04:12] alright [04:12] trying once more [04:12] cd /etc/rc2.d [04:12] hmm that was not found either kelsin [04:12] what do I need to install to have xorg ? [04:12] essentially run levels [04:12] dn4, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [04:12] oh well if i dont decide to scrap this pos over night ill stop back tommrow and try again [04:12] night guys [04:13] jwd, got it. Thanks [04:13] i need sleep [04:13] Are framebuffer modules blacklisted by default, I wonder? [04:13] been fightign with this too long [04:13] hmm maybe I do not have xorg [04:13] I am using fiesty [04:13] runlevel 2 is the multi-user runlevel right? [04:13] one sec [04:14] what should I do to install a gui? [04:14] im trying to recompile lighty with a new module, but i installed it originally from the ubuntu repository, where would I go to find the source files to recompile it? [04:14] dn4, try the command i told you [04:14] devil: 2 or 3 [04:14] dn4, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [04:14] what are you starting? [04:14] dn4, did you install the fiesty server? [04:14] jwd, a dc hub [04:15] devilsadvocate: yes [04:15] jwd, i'll try to write an init script for it.. it certainly deserves that much attention [04:15] dc hub? [04:16] ok I did sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop [04:16] d.c.? [04:16] hello all [04:16] dn4, , perhaps you should tyr insallingind kde-base or its gnome counterpart.. it sould pull the xorg dependancies with it [04:16] jwd, direct connect. specifically a thing called verlihub [04:16] hmm [04:16] dn4, installing that did not give you a gui? [04:17] devilsadvocate: I am installing it right now [04:17] its really quiet in here.. its kinda nice for a change [04:17] hopefully that solves the delima [04:17] Hi room, is it possible to use named ranges within functions with OpenOffice.org Calc? (ie: start:finish, as opposed to A1:A6) [04:17] whats it do? [04:17] just like a hub? [04:17] dn4, so you never had a gui? === max685 is now known as max [04:17] jwd, i run the hub using a command "vh_runhub" . I need it to listen on port 411 so it has to be as root [04:17] soldats: correct [04:17] aww ok [04:17] Is there something broken with php/apache2 in Ubuntu 7.10 ?? [04:17] * jwd nods [04:17] soldats: I install base config, tried apt-get install gnome, that did not work tried apt-get install ubuntustudio* [04:17] that did not work [04:17] jwd, its a decentralized file sharing hub... [04:18] Varanger: on your machine maybe [04:18] hehehe [04:18] so now I am trying apt-get install xubuntu-desktop [04:18] I see [04:18] are there any progs to see if my system has been rooted [04:18] dn4, if that doesnt work try apt-get gdm [04:18] google for a root kit [04:18] Varanger, apache2 seems to be working fine. I'm using php5 [04:18] When running update-initramfs: it is trying to find an old custom kernel I compiled, but no longer have. How can I make it refer to the generic kernel? [04:18] soldats: ok [04:18] ninja - google for a rootkit [04:18] jwd: I have a fresh installation and it isn't working well. Firefox tries to download the php file instead of parsing it [04:19] dn4, or sudo apt-get enlightenment then from that you will have a gui and youll be able to search for one you can use to your liking [04:19] did you install it at the same time? [04:19] I've noticed that no one ever seems to awake in the room for gnome.... [04:19] are permissions okay? [04:19] man enlightenment rocks soldats [04:19] Varanger, how did you install apache and php? did you download the apach php modules too.. and the correct ones [04:19] I wanted the new release of englightenment X17 [04:19] but it never got released and still is not released to this day [04:19] dn4, hah do you have it? i love it [04:19] *sigh* [04:20] devilsadvocate: apt-get install apache2 php5 [04:20] dn4, there is an e17 repo somewhere, i used it for a while a year ago [04:20] soldats: nope I do not have it [04:20] oh e17 my bad [04:20] Varanger, I'm afraid is more complicated than that [04:20] devilsadvocate: For php, apt installed php5, php5-common and libapache2-mod-php5 === PinkFloyd is now known as SunsparcSolaris [04:20] e17 rocks though, by far one of the best GUIs but I have never been able to run it [04:20] hmm.. taht should have been enough, Varanger [04:20] Could someone help me with my cursors? It isnt changing when I install a new one. [04:20] dn4, well if you cant get xfce or gnome just use that, im sure youll be comfortable with it [04:20] Varanger I recommend using Synaptic [04:20] magic_ninja: 'apt-cache search rootkit' shows chkrootkit and rkhunter. You could also look at bsign, systraq, and tripwire packages [04:21] devilsadvocate: It isn't working :( [04:21] soldats: sounds good [04:21] dn4, cool well i hope you get things fixed [04:21] thanks [04:21] jwd: ok. I'll try [04:21] Varanger, can you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP and see if youve done all the steps there? [04:21] Varanger: use Synaptic to install it after you remove it [04:22] devilsadvocate: I already followed the steps before I came and started asking [04:22] basically you are better of installing everything at once mod_perl / php / phpmyadmin / etc... [04:22] is there any way to get jackd working with alsa in gutsy? === Anubis is now known as _Anubis [04:23] i installed xubuntu 'gutsy' on a hp laptop (nx9420), but now it's not recognizing the higher resolutions of the integrated ati X1600, even though it's using the restricted drivers, where do i start? [04:24] remove the lower resolution modes from /etc/X11/xorg.conf [04:24] sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf [04:24] smaug9, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [04:24] or what soldats said [04:24] if you know you only want 10x4x1280, and you know your monitor can handle it, you can remove all but that mode in the file [04:24] Does anyone have a deb of transmission 0.96? [04:24] rradfor: is that a 3d monitor? [04:25] soldats, sweet, thanks. ill try taht [04:25] 10x4x1280 <-- I have never heard of this [04:25] then set res to what you want with the spacebar, you might have to set it to 16bit color though for some reason some cards wont accept anything higher [04:25] lol [04:25] Varanger, I cant be sure it certainly sounds like apache is loking for the wrong php.. try doing "sudo a2enmod php5" and then restarting apache [04:25] devilsadvocate: I've also done that :( [04:25] sorry, should have enabled my typo monitor [04:26] It said that the module was already enabled [04:26] Could someone help me with my cursors? It isnt changing when I install a new one. [04:26] smaug9, just add the resolution you want to use to your xorg.conf file. I dont know why, but enable restricted modules doesnt seem to be doing this automatically [04:27] can anyone tell me why konsole's transparency would work in kubuntu but not in gnome? [04:27] Varanger, put a very simple php file in your wwwroot, something with jus the phpinfo function or something [04:27] is there any workaround/fix for the loop module in the 2.6.15 kernels ? [04:27] :( I already did that!!!! [04:28] bueller... bueller.... === Ken is now known as iKen [04:28] hi i was wondering if anyone here is familiar with apt-get or adept manager who can help me with a problem? [04:28] Varanger, make sure you have php5 installed and not 4. I really cant think of anything else that can be wrong :( [04:28] !ask | sky [04:28] sky: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) [04:28] sky state the error/problem [04:28] NeoPhyte21: I suspect that konsole is taking a shortcut and just blending text with the background image that the kde desktop is telling it about. The gnome desktop would not give the same information to konsole. [04:29] !dontask [04:29] Sorry, I don't know anything about dontask - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [04:29] oh [04:29] =p ok [04:29] my bad [04:29] stroyan: any recomendation? [04:29] so i did a fetch/update all in a new 7.10 install [04:29] can I download educational games for kde if I am using gnome? [04:29] fekall, yes you can [04:29] and have them work [04:29] then the packages downloaded successfully, but there were some errors in the installation, where i got a pop up saying that there were errors and only an "OK" button [04:29] nice [04:29] fekall, yeah [04:29] thanks devil [04:29] and simple [04:29] thanks all [04:30] devilsadvocate: Thanks for the help. [04:30] i love you guys [04:30] i just wanted to say that [04:30] so i clicked ok, wanted to try again, but this time fetch told me there were 0 upgradables [04:30] in a non gay way [04:30] Varanger, no luck? [04:30] I am going to sleep, and try tomorrow [04:30] and i'm sure the last try didn't finish upgrading. [04:30] devilsadvocate [04:30] i was watching, die hard 4 with the hackers, and i thought of you guys [04:30] Varanger, oki. sorry i coulndt be of more help [04:30] devilsadvocate: I am re-installing everything again [04:30] i try "sudo apt-get check" but that didn't seem to make a difference. [04:30] NeoPhyte21: I like opaque windows myself. Compiz-fusion might have a general transparency setting. That would be weird, though. [04:30] sky, do you remember what the erros were? [04:30] "thanks ibanez" [04:30] yw [04:31] um not really, it wouldn't let me copy the "show details" log [04:31] MasterShrek: is the man though [04:31] and this happened on a new 7.10 install.... [04:31] sky sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [04:32] sky, its possible they were just warnings [04:32] i am trying to upgrade some workstations from home... i don't have a gui... they are not servers trying to upgrade 7.04 -> 7.10 why can't i do a apt-get dist-upgrade ? [04:32] sky, as long as you are able to install new stuff, everything is probably fine [04:32] Could someone help me with my cursors? It isnt changing when I install a new one. [04:32] well a pop up window notified me and when i click ok, the update stopped and went back to adept mgr [04:32] sky, if there is an errror while installing something, apt generally does not let you install anything else [04:32] ok hello is it patebin i need to paste to to get a helper to look at it ? [04:32] but this is really strange, because i'm pretty sure not all packages are installed yet when it stopped [04:32] I have an nForce 4 AMD chipset, and everytime I boot linux, my ethernet device has a new MAC address. Also, in windows, the MAC address is shown as 00:00:00:00:00:00. [04:33] I believe this happened after I reverted my bios to default settings [04:33] Can anyone offer me help in the way of a crash course in Linux scripts? I need to run a bunch of commands a whole bunch of times. [04:33] but then next time around it tells me there are 0 upgradable.... [04:33] sky sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [04:33] I also noticed that in the BIOS, on the main page, the serial number is all zeros, and the UUID is all zeros. [04:33] sudo apt-get dist-upgrade gave me 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. [04:34] RedHeron anything you would enter on the command line can be used in a script [04:34] (yes i did the update already) [04:34] im having some problem as sky.... you can't do it from commandline it looks like [04:34] Could someone help me with my cursors? It isnt changing when I install a new one. [04:34] Agent_bob I'm aware of that part, but how do I make it a script? [04:34] sky then it's up to date stop whining [04:34] but neither can i do it from adept mgr... it tells me there is nothing to upgrade but i wasn't finished upgrading the stuff before [04:34] RedHeron ? [04:34] RedHeron it is a script if it's writen what are you asking ? [04:35] Anyone have any thoughts on my issue? [04:35] sky: what does lsb_release -a show? [04:35] How do I make a script that executes a bunch of command lines and then stops when a particular return is given? [04:35] wow i have the same problem as sky too lol [04:35] RedHeron until blah ;do something ;done [04:35] no LSB modules are available, Ubuntu 7.10 gutsy [04:36] sky: yours is up to date [04:36] mine froze mid update and never restarted [04:36] i had 7.10 to begin with, there were just a few packages to be updated [04:36] RedHeron if you simply want it to loop until the exitcode is 0 until command ;do : ;done [04:36] i have tried checking mine a few times it has not been a hassle ove rthe last 2 days since i happened but now im [04:37] Agent_bob: what I'm more interested in is something that tells me more in-detail what I need to know, since it's security-related and not appropriate for a public channel. [04:37] sky: sorry my bad... i thought you were having the same problem i was having since you were trying a dist-upgrade [04:37] in the midst of trying to install vmware server and it wont let me [04:37] no no... [04:37] sky: my bad.. sorry [04:37] well the other machine i had gave me the same problem when i was trying to upgrade to 7.10 [04:37] Agent_bob: Google isn't really being helpful. [04:37] sky: is the other machine 7.04? [04:37] np jason. do u have any suggestion on what i should try? [04:37] yes [04:37] RedHeron well i can't answer specific questions if all you ask are general ones. if you have an "example" we can work on... [04:38] sky, yours is up to date. have faith :) [04:38] jason__, what problem do you have? [04:38] there is a sed awk command to run against /etc/apt/sources.list but i don't know what it is [04:38] well... it's hard to "have faith" when i see adept mgr stopped at like 50% and then when i come back it says it's done installing [04:38] Agent_bob: hard to provide an example when I don't know how to ask for what I want... what I want is general assistance in creating scripts. [04:38] devilsadvocate: i want to upgrade a desktop from commandline [04:39] Agent_bob: May I PM? [04:39] devilsadvocate: but i don't have a GUI to do it... i want to upgrade overnight and arrive at work with a nice upgrade [04:39] !upgrade [04:39] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [04:39] but dist-upgrade doesnt work [04:39] sky stop whining. several of us have assured you that if apt-get dist-upgrade said 0 to upgrade then there are none [04:39] sudo apt-get upgrade [04:39] jason__, didt_uprgaed isnt supposed to work [04:39] RedHeron i'm not regestered, so i cant pm back [04:39] ......... ok [04:40] * RedHeron rolls eyes. [04:40] jason__, as in, it isnt meant to upgrade from one distro to anohter [04:40] hello [04:40] ok can someone look at my pastebin and tell me why that failed lol http://pastebin.com/m12ea5848 [04:40] Is there anyone *else* who can help me with maybe a URL to provide a general introduction to Linux scripting? [04:40] RedHeron and i'm not going to register either. [04:40] o.k.. how can i remotely upgrade the machine [04:40] !cli | RedHeron [04:40] RedHeron: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [04:40] jason__, is your install close to a vanilla install, or have you added other repositories and such? [04:41] devisadvocate: base install [04:41] devisadvocate: this is what i am looking for sudo sed -e 's/\sedgy/ feisty/g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list [04:41] and just change the wods around [04:41] RedHeron, google bash spripting how to [04:41] it is hackish.. but it will work [04:41] soldats: Thank you!

[04:48] booncer: But, what is sc_trans_linux? [04:48] anas, it make a a virtual windose system [04:48] cflopez: Yeah, but I'm dead tired.. try looking around at NDISwrapper. [04:48] jason__, may watn to check out http://sourceforge.net/projects/clusterm also [04:48] i've been playing around with it for hours [04:48] its an mp3 server [04:48] and not getting anyware [04:48] anas, you should be able to run anything windose on it [04:49] cflopez: Do you have the drivers for XP? [04:49] does the same with the shoutcast server [04:49] Dr_willis: imagine if i converted my all the development workstations in our lab 500+ to ubuntu... how would you expect me to upgrade them all? devilsadvocate thinks i should go around sitting down and lauching the gui to do it... i just want it to work something like AD... and push out the information [04:49] yes [04:49] jason__, and tentakel. A list of similar programs available at http://tentakel.biskalar.de/similar/ [04:49] its an AMD64 system, which aparently means only more trouble [04:49] Does anyone in here have any experience with configuring the look of gnome? [04:49] Dr_willis: thanks.. i am going to look up that stuff [04:49] or so I have been told [04:49] RazzoRz, did you try to undo those setings also see if there is a backup anyways [04:49] cflopez: More particularily, a .INF file and .SYS file.... [04:49] both [04:49] jason__, if you have a paswordless ssh set up on them all with keys.. you could do it from a script - actually i think theres a 'auto update' setting somewhere. :) [04:49] why my fi [04:49] hey guys whats a good bluetooth manager for Xubuntu [04:49] or xfce [04:49] Do you have the gui tools for ndiswrapper?

[04:50] jason__, be sure to set up an apt-caching server also to reduce the load :) [04:50] What does it do when you load up the INF in that app? [04:50] Soldats: i put it all back to the way i had it.. and when i searched for xorg/conf. nothing shows.. did i type it in right? [04:50] invalid driver [04:50] Dr_willis: we are still a small lab... but if i had my way i would move all 500 workstations [04:50] jason__, umm, you have 500 computers without a root password? [04:50] cflopez: There ya have it... bad/wrong INF file. [04:50] anas, well the only suggerstion i have is use wine to run it or google vmware and see if it will suit your needs i dont usually run windose apps anymore so im not familiar with them anynmore [04:51] i got it straight from the HOWTO file [04:51] devilsadvocate: it is more secure to never have root passwords [04:51] RazzoRz, xorg.conf [04:51] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201902from here [04:51] any ideas dj_ [04:51] cflopez: If's probably called BCM###.inf and BCM###.sys, maybe under /media/cdrom0/drivers/xp/.... [04:51] soldats : thanx [04:51] im repeating but i need to have someone look at this sometime soon lol ok can someone look at my pastebin and tell me why that failed lol http://pastebin.com/m12ea5848 [04:51] jason__, Dr_willis was talking about passwordless login, not root passwords [04:51] hey all, dumb question. How do uninstall something that I compiled? I did not use Synaptic, I did the ./config - make - make instal route. [04:51] Soldats: and what am i looking for?.. how do i put it back to normal.. or put back the one i had in the first place if it made a backup [04:52] semantics..... it is late and i want to just finish the few machines i have so everyone walks in tomorrow to new desktops === j_ack_ is now known as j_ack [04:52] ssh has so many features and things i cant even rember half of what it can do. :) i do know it can run remote commands on machines. [04:52] whats after the ... evipere? [04:52] is there a good howto on network aliases - can't seem to setup eth0:1 [04:52] cflopez: If you have the windows CD, that may be the URl of the drivers on it. [04:53] Soldats: am i lookin for the fallback?? [04:53] no windows cd... will google the files then [04:53] im repeating but i need to have someone look at this sometime soon lol ok can someone look at my pastebin and tell me why that failed lol http://pastebin.com/m12ea5848 [04:53] cflopez: That may work... It sounds like you just have a bad inf file... getting the correct one may be as hard as finding XP drivers for a vista box. [04:54] im using xubuntu i keep getting this --------------->bash: ./sc_trans_linux: cannot execute binary file [04:54] And, does anyone know where I can change the icon theme at? [04:54] any 1 know what im missing? [04:54] the vista box that i have is 32 bit [04:54] RazzoRz, try /usr/lib/xorg [04:54] and im not even sure if it has a broadcom card [04:54] RazzoRz, see if its there and look for a backup if its there [04:55] @cflopez: LOL, that was no my point, I was just making a reference to the pain of finding XP drivers for new devices that M$ doesn't wnat to support. === renan is now known as ubuntusucks === ubuntusucks is now known as ubutunsucks004 [04:55] littlebear72: apt-get -f install vmware-server [04:55] noob comment of the hour... like clockwork, one every hour [04:56] damn ubuntu suck! [04:56] thanks dj_ [04:56] BigDaddy: You are going to have to find every file that "make install" added and remove them. You could look for a 'remove' option in the package. That isn't very likely. You could use "strace -f -e file" to wrap the "make install" and see what files it installed. [04:56] no flash installed.. [04:56] no shit installed.. [04:56] you have to do all your self.. [04:56] ubutunsucks004, demand a refund. [04:56] waste of time [04:56] stroyan: gnome-terminal has transparency :-D [04:56] i want my money back!

I have successfully paired the phone to my computer via Bluetooth. I have typed 'obex://' into Nautilus but to no avail. In the Bluetooth preferences dialog, there is a small lock icon by the phone. What does this mean and how can I get to the phone? [04:56] ubutunsucks004: Stop trolling. [04:56] hmm, for some reason vim doesn't syntax highlight all the comments in (some of) my files... what could the reason be? [04:56] hi everyone, what IRC client are you using with ubuntu? [04:57] ubuntusux, perhaps it is a PBKAC issue [04:57] ok I need linux-restricted-modules-2.6*-server [04:57] but it does not exist [04:57] tendervittles, I use X-Chat [04:57] tendervittles: please, tell me you got your name from Bloom County...

But I _like_ opaque windows. :-) [04:58] ubutunsucks004: If you need help installing something, ask for it. Don't whine. [04:58] Dr_willis: Bill the Cat was addicted to Tender Vittles... I just loved that comic [04:58] ubutunsucks004, last i used it - it dident. and legally they could be getting in trouble for doing it.. but thats all offtopic.. [04:58] RazzoRz, use with care but its the only thing i can think of right now [04:59] i c it comes up with no X server known for your video hardware [04:59] ubuntusucks004: i know google is hard to use... but http://www.google.com/search?q=install+flash+ubuntu shows a bunch of help [04:59] eVipire, i got the card working the other day using the driver im using now, but after rebooting, it disappeared [04:59] so im stumped [04:59] how do I install a simple generic kernel using apt-get [05:00] If I wanted to build a custom Ubuntu version for myself, how would I start?

[05:27] it wont let me [05:28] maybe i need to reboot [05:28] brb [05:28] interestingly.. http://godfrey.no-ip.com:81 works within/outside my lan [05:28] so i'm wondering if this is actually an apache problem at all [05:28] Suntop|PS3, normally when you open firefox to a page with flash or java it aske you to install missing plugins and youshould be able to click on those and it ahould install those, but normall you have to get flash manually [05:28] i screwed something up [05:28] does this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47787/ mean my wireless card is up or not? [05:29] any chance of some help using hibernation under gutsy on a fujitsu-siemens p7230? [05:29] now when i open synaptic, I get an error message [05:29] E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

[05:31] and.. if it helps.. i'm seeing sth different within/outside my lan [05:31] balzac, try it with "reconfigure" [05:31] when accessed inside my lan... i got the directory listing of /var/www/ === imbrando1 is now known as imbrandon [05:31] and of course, all the machines, except the wireless router and dsl modem would be running ubuntu [05:31] Anyways, that only took 4 hours.

[05:32] crap [05:32] someone help me compile and install real vnc pro? [05:32] godfrey_: do you have an index at /var/www/ [05:33] can someone take a look at this and interpret it for me, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47787/ [05:33] nope [05:33] i'm going to have a stroke [05:33] that's why i was expecting a directory listing of /var/www [05:33] but my friend told me they see "It works".. [05:33] godfrey_: then delete the apache default folder [05:33] the worst thing is when I screw up package management [05:33] okay [05:34] now my synaptic won't work. bloody hell. [05:34] heheh, no response! I admit, it is a pretty generic question for #ubuntu to support. [05:35] antdedyet, what did you ask? [05:35] antdedyet, wired over wireless any day [05:35] antdedyet, wired is much more reliable [05:35] antdedyet, wired, definately [05:35] now it showed the same thing within/outside my lan -> directory listing.. but i'm wondering how it works... was it mod_rewrite or something? [05:35] * antdedyet sees the general consensus is wiredd [05:35] wireless is a last resort [05:35] godfrey_: basically, its the default 'ok you installed it' page. deleting that now makes it work how you would expect [05:35] (and.. still i can't access http://godfrey.no-ip.com within my lan... i'm thinking maybe this is a router problem?) [05:35] antdedyet, unless you want to just look really cool by having less wires all over the place, I don't see the point [05:36] antdedyet, I agree... on my wireless, I have wired to my desktop and wireless to the laptops. [05:36] i even regularly use the wired connection on my laptop :P [05:36] what graphics cards with 3d acceleration are well supported on Ubuntu? [05:36] I am using a wired connection on my laptop right now [05:36] godfrey_: what does http://localhost give you [05:36] godfrey_: port 80 and 81 probably look different. [05:36] godfrey_, some routers dont let you access your stuff from the 'outside ip' from inside. [05:36] if you can get wireless to work, why not? [05:36] granted, I don't have a wireless router so that might be a contributing factor [05:36] hmm interesting [05:36] cflopez, it's unreliable and slow [05:36] cflopez, it is unreliable [05:36] http://localhost works fine [05:36] haha, Rubin is full of win [05:36] all of the packets, they fly around and give you cancer [05:36] see u l8r everyone [05:37] http://192.168.0.10 works as well [05:37] gnite [05:37] godfrey_: then its a router issue [05:37] im off to my comfy bed, hahaha [05:37] i usually have no trouble with mine, but i understand where your coming from [05:37] godfrey_, what's your WAN IP? [05:37] let me check [05:37] (or you can ping godfrey.no-ip.com) [05:37] heh [05:37] that's your redirect i take it? [05:37] /dns godfrey.no-ip.com ? heh [05:38] 24.80.98.125 [05:38] http://godfrey.no-ip.com gives me 'Index of /' O.o [05:38] so it works from the outside [05:38] define irony, im the only idiot defending wireless while asking for help setting up my wireless card [05:38] <`blackmk4> so i installed ndiswrapper [05:38] yeah.. that's what my friend told me too.. [05:38] <`blackmk4> if i sudo ndiswrapper -l it sees the driver installed and device present [05:39] godfrey_, what's the problem precisely? [05:39] cudaman73, could be inside and outside are matching different virtualhosts [05:39] <`blackmk4> but if i do iwconfig [05:39] <`blackmk4> there is nothing there [05:39] <`blackmk4> and ifconfig shows nothing but lo [05:39] <`blackmk4> now what [05:39] tonyyarusso: Argh, I went to see if I could build ffmpeg-php manually, and it needs phpize, which needs php5-dev, which... pretty much upgrades a zillion things and I'm back to a score of -100. [05:39] `blackmk4, try another driver? [05:39] Oh well, enough for tonight. [05:39] hmm.. as you can see.. my server could be accessed outside... (http://godfrey.no-ip.com or http://godfrey.no-ip.com:81) [05:39] got a quick Q [05:39] why does my wireless connection show up in ETH1? [05:39] puff : apt-get build-dep ffmpeg-php [05:40] <`blackmk4> hm [05:40] but within my lan, only (http://192.168.0.10 or http://godfrey.no-ip.com:81 works [05:40] cflopez, ubuntu kinda just stacks the interfaces in the order it first ever saw tham [05:40] but not http://godfrey.no-ip.com [05:40] cflopez, it happens sometimes [05:40] they're saying that it's a router issue [05:40] cflopez, it shouldn't affect your wireless functionality [05:40] i am dualbootin with XP/Ubutu 7.10, how big should I make the HDs? seperate per OS [05:40] i have no wireless functionality [05:40] maybe i should ask the dlink people? [05:41] juggyDS, it really depends what you plan to do on each one.. [05:41] cflopez: what kind of wifi card do you have? [05:41] good ol broadcom [05:41] godfrey_, it's possible... any particular reason you want to access it via your re-direct? [05:41] ok, thnx [05:41] how do i get rid of the joined and exit messages in x-chat? [05:41] godfrey_, why not just through the local lan? [05:41] cflopez: you just need the firmware [05:41] JonathanD, right click the channel [05:41] i have it [05:41] !broadcom > cflopez (Please see the private message from ubotu) [05:41] i'll probably just get a 80GB ubuntu, 160 xp [05:41] bye [05:41] <`blackmk4> i tried the only other driver for this card [05:41] cflopez: well if you have the firmware hten the card should work just fine. [05:41] <`blackmk4> and it still says no wireless extensions [05:42] cause i've http://godfrey.no-ip.com hardcoded in my AJAX application for some reason [05:42] its not [05:42] so i've to change it everytime when i have to test it [05:42] `blackmk4, obviously it's not really a wireless card, and you should go beat whoever you bought it from senseless :P [05:42] but then it's not like super annoying [05:42] check this h1st0 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47787/ [05:42] <`blackmk4> oh. === mari`cukur is now known as lonely_guy [05:42] <`blackmk4> it works using the bcm43xx driver that comes with ubuntu [05:42] so if there's no easy fix i think i can live with that [05:42] <`blackmk4> but i get hardcore packet loss [05:42] <`blackmk4> so it was recommended i try ndiswrapper + windows driver [05:42] godfrey_, hmm... i dunno. it does sound like a router issue. my linksys (with dd-wrt on it) lets me access my local webserver just fine [05:43] have you tried it with the latest ubuntu `blackmk4 ? [05:43] <`blackmk4> yes [05:43] cflopez: what is that? [05:43] something somebody asked me for earlier and i dont know what the hell it is hehe [05:43] cflopez: do you have a 43xx series broadcom? [05:43] yes [05:43] jones: I removed those messages by using "settings"->"advanced"->"Text events" and changing the annoying messages to be empty. [05:43] yeah.. so perhaps i'll just leave it and drop an email to linksys tmr.. [05:43] cflopez: did you install the firmware package? [05:43] cflopez, does eth1 have an ip address? [05:43] yes [05:44] cflopez: how did you install it? [05:44] setting up the server is tired enough.. i guess i'll just leave it like this today.. === u^A is now known as u^A_ [05:44] using the restricted drivers thing [05:44] godfrey_, don't give up :P [05:44] does it have an IP, i dont know, not sure how to check it here [05:44] yea... tmr :P [05:44] cflopez, pop up a terminal and type 'ifconfig' [05:44] stroyan- are u using xchat i dont see an option for settings [05:44] What does "Score is -100" mean in aptitude? [05:44] i'll test it with my old router tmr... to confirm it :) [05:44] it should show up an ip address underneath the eth1 output somewhere [05:45] how do i rest my xorg.conf back to the one i had b4 i messed with my dual monitors ... [05:45] ETH0 has an IP [05:45] RazzoRz, unless you backed it up, you can't [05:45] having issue with drivel and connecting to blogger. keep getting a error : There was a peoblem receiving information from the server. can anybody help me out ? [05:45] okay i guess i should get some sleepp.. thanks everyone :) [05:45] gnight godfrey_ [05:45] Rubin: I'm not on hardy, so ffmpeg-php isn't avaialble yet. [05:45] jones: Perhaps you are using xchat-gnome instead of the full xchat package. It has much less features. [05:45] cflopez, but not one for eth1? [05:45] G'night all. [05:46] Cudaman73 would it not have done that when i tried to do dual monitor? [05:46] RazzoRz, depends, how did you set up dual monitors? [05:46] did you do it manually? [05:46] stroyan: is that in the repo's? is x-chat the best? i am new here if u cant tell [05:46] anyone know a widget app for ubuntu?

[06:08] Donka: are you using effects? [06:08] Because it's limited to some compressed [06:08] files [06:08] PmDematagoda, LOL [06:08] ya === max842 is now known as max [06:09] PmDematagoda, #ubuntuforums-beginners [06:09] m1k3: not if you install the "unrar" package [06:09] I know I know but rar supports ALOT more compression types [06:09] why do u ask jrib? [06:09] m1k3: k, name one that you need [06:10] One second [06:10] TimeForRain: You can get many important build files with "sudo apt-get install build-essential". The stdio.h file is in the libc6-dev package. [06:10] can anyone point me to a hyperterminal-like software for ubuntu (serial port monitor) [06:10] god morning! can someone help me with dualscreen (between my laptop and an external tft), intel x3100-gfx? [06:10] Donka: you can set up multiple wallpapers on the cube in compiz-config-settings-manager. #compiz-fusion can help you more with that [06:10] There's not one that I specifically need now it's when I'll need it for future use [06:10] k [06:10] !rar > m1k3 (read the private message from ubotu) [06:10] anyone here know anything about suspend/hibernate issues with sony vaio SZ notebooks?

[06:12] the above guide only indicates 7.04 [06:13] devilsadvocate: check this out: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Serial-HOWTO.html [06:13] devilsadvocate, maybe minicom, or cutecom or gtkterm [06:13] anyone know how to get the video's on www.nfl.com to work? [06:13] underdawg: it is supposed to get installed when you need it (but that is broken at the moment because adobe released a new version and the package has not been updated since last time I checked) [06:13] come on, just a little help, i can almost taste it, so close! [06:13] jones: I just installed nautilus-open-terminal and killed off the nautilus process. Now right clicking on a folder icon has an "Open in terminal" option near the bottom of the pop-up menu. [06:13] hi guys [06:13] cflopez: what are you using ndiswrapper? [06:13] Winrar supports more file types :S [06:14] yea [06:14] way more [06:14] cflopez: why? [06:14] cflopez: why didn't you just install the firmware [06:14] donka: the trade off for different wallpapers in gnome is that u can not have desktop icons. is that acceptable [06:14] What is the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh file used for? [06:14] got it to recognize the driver using the 32 bit version [06:14] jrib: winrar supports way more file types [06:14] it wasnt working that way [06:14] jones, huh [06:14] cflopez: you using 64bit? [06:14] m1k3: yeah, a bunch of proprietary ones I'm sure [06:14] JonathanD, what are you talking about? [06:14] er, jones [06:14] anyone? suspend/hibernate issues with Sony SZ notebooks??? [06:14] yea [06:14] !ndiswrapper > cflopez (Please see the private message from ubotu) [06:14] Rubin, does gtkterm have a "start connection" button that i cant find? [06:14] jrib: but it's more convienent than file-roller [06:15] cflopez: just follow those directions to get it working with ndiswrapper [06:15] devilsadvocate, i havent used it.. and last time i did need something, i was so frustrated with the linux offering i dug out a windows box :/ [06:15] m1k3, linux has rar support and it has never failed me [06:15] would it be a good idea to have a wrapper so that {apt-{get,cache,file},dpkg} commands are all tied to one script [06:15] ok [06:15] jrib: any ideas on my problem? [06:15] m1k3: file-roller "just works" so I don't see how it is less convenient. Anyway, we're getting offtopic. You should try writing a small shell script that does what you want to do and then have that as the default app [06:16] it's weird to me that dpkg -L e.g. isn't part of apt-get or apt-cache [06:16] !defaultapp | m1k3 [06:16] m1k3: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations" [06:16] Rubin, I remember using gtkterm sucessfully a year ago and bitching about how hyperterminal sucked, but for som,e reason i cant get it to work now :( [06:16] dancor, you use debian/ubuntu for a while you know them all by rote anyway [06:16] That's what I was asking thanks [06:16] TimeForRain: and the command you are using? [06:16] does anyone know of a program for Linux that is similar to Garageband, and with loops? [06:16] Rubin: think of aspiring noobs [06:16] dancor, it makes sense from an archetectuaral standpoint. apt* is a frontend to dpkg [06:16] How do you install Apache2 on the gutsy? [06:16] r00bs can use gui package managers === darkmatter_ is now known as darkmatter [06:17] how do I hide the desktop icons? [06:17] lwells: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP [06:17] lwells: aptitide install apache2 (or whatever package manager you want) [06:17] lwells, select it in the package manager ... [06:17] so I wrote a blueprint (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/no-mono-by-default). Is it written somewhere as to what I am supposed to do next? (As it says.. .I need guidance) [06:17] neur1, rename them and place a "." in from of the file name [06:17] front [06:17] neur1: all of them? uncheck /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop in gconf-editor [06:17] test [06:18] ok, Rubin / Flannel lets say i have one application that communicates via serial port, i know that it is working, it is programming my device. Now, suppose i have a gtkterm listening on that serial port, should this second application be able to work? on windows, an open hyperterminal connection locks up the serial port not allowing any ohte applications to connect. should something like this happen here too? [06:18] TimeForRain: I mean, what command are you using to compile it? [06:18] TimeForRain: You need to "sudo apt-get install libc6-dev". And "sudo apt-get install build-essential" could help with further builds. [06:18] devilsadvocate, hmm i think so, but i also think you could probably snoop on it somehow. but i don't know how to do it... [06:19] devilsadvocate: I think that'd depend entirely on the application. I don't think it'd be exclusive, but I might be wrong. You could always use pipes to split it up among apps if you required it. [06:20] damn [06:20] Flannel, I want to figure out if gtkterm is actually listenin g on the right port. I think it isnt because even when i have it openeed the other device is able to open a serial connection and send the data, I think i'll try this on a windows computer to verify that my device is actually transmitting something, and then see what the problem is here [06:21] is there a ppc64 version of flash and java i can instrall from apt-get? [06:21] Suntop|PS3: try Java7 and Gnash, maybe [06:21] devilsadvocate, ahh. lsof should be able to tell you [06:21] does anyone know of a program for Linux that is similar to Garageband, and with loops? [06:21] i see an option for open in terminal on my local files but was wanting to this on a remote file to see where it is mounted [06:21] What is the /etc/acpi/sleep.sh file used for? [06:21] ok [06:22] apt-get install java7? [06:22] Rubin, lsof? [06:22] does anyone know of a program for Linux that is similar to Garageband, and with loops? Please :) [06:22] Suntop|PS3: or maybe it's called "iced tea" .. It's a start on Java7, might not be "production ready yet" [06:22] bullgard4, acpi sleep is like, when laptops get their lids closed [06:22] well [06:22] devilsadvocate, lists open files, and who opened them. serial ports are just files in /dev [06:23] noope [06:23] !java [06:23] To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre [06:23] dont ask the same question over and over if noone has an answer it means they are busy or they not the slightest clue to the answer [06:23] ah, thanks Rubin and Flannel [06:23] <`blackmk4> that's interesting. moving from protected drivers to ndiswrapper dropped my signal quality 50% [06:23] jones: What kind of "remote file" are you looking at? Something like "smb://hostname/dir" is not necessarily mounted anywhere. [06:23] <`blackmk4> but i get better speeds. [06:23] <`blackmk4> lol. [06:23] `blackmk4, you cannot trust the signal quality meter in ndiswrapper. it is meaningless [06:24] <`blackmk4> ah, ok [06:24] <`blackmk4> interesting [06:24] Peddy: You might have more luck in #ubuntustudio, they'll be more familiar [06:24] what it i have thunar and not nautilus? [06:24] Flannel, thanks [06:24] damn it [06:24] i cannot get it [06:24] Peddy, if i was you id google for an app that fits your needs or look in the synaptic menu and look for soethign of that description [06:24] try icedtea-java7-plugin [06:24] Suntop|PS3, where are you located [06:24] soldats: tried that, no luck. None of them have loops. [06:25] in Montana Usa [06:25] Rubin: I understand what you say. But this does not answer my question.

Welcome! [06:40] NickT_: i like arch [06:40] but then gives me an error "Could not get lock" [06:40] nah, those guys are assholes. they're parading against my buddy [06:40] Does ubuntu support the new mini pci wireless n cards? [06:41] need some help witha a ndiswrapper howto, cant seem to figure out the last couple of steps [06:41] NickT_: Ubuntu is linux for retards [06:41] zewb, my default cli font is pretty much like the ariel font [06:41] zewb: well I'm very new :) [06:41] NickT_: lol just kidding [06:41] jones: Nautilus can use various remote access protocols and show the results to use as a folder. You can use smb: to windows, or ftp: to an ftp server, etc. [06:41] sorry about that [06:41] NickT_: but if you want to learn linux, stay away from distros like ubuntu. they hide the inner workings from you [06:41] zewb, why trash on distros you probly shouldnt be here if yorr going to do that [06:41] that was a accident [06:41] !ot > zewb, NickT_ [06:41] ok === vmlinuz` is now known as pwnt- [06:42] NickT_: Slackware is ok [06:42] zewb: i can't use slackware's support channels because of a vendetta their ops have against roadrunner users in maine. So is there another distro you'd suggest if not ubuntu? I like the gnome enviroment. [06:42] guys, i hve a problem with limewire, i cant use it it only dispolays blank white spaces on the screen. any idea how to fix it? [06:42] Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13 Permission denied), that is the error i keep getting when I try to run apt-get, why is that? [06:42] NickT_, most other distros are for more advanced users [06:42] jrib: is there anyway I can create my own thing like %u? [06:42] lwells, use sudo apt-get [06:42] NickT_: well you can use gnome in any distro, but if you want one that comes with gnome, and you just want a kind of windows-ish system where you don't have to delve into things too much, then ubuntu is for you [06:43] stroyan: thanks for all the help this evening. [06:43] NickT_, if you really want to try something new just google it [06:43] jrib: so I can switch /path to z:/path? [06:43] tommygb: why are there lines in the display? [06:43] got it thanks [06:43] m1k3: the easiest way I see for you to do that is to write a small shell script [06:43] any one? [06:43] NickT_: if you like to tweak everything and experiment then I recommend Arch [06:43] zewb and NickT_, please go somewhere else with the general chatter. This is a support channel. [06:43] well i tried getting support [06:43] but i didnt get it [06:43] zewb: i heard arch was really cool [06:43] so i'm giving someone else support [06:43] jrib: I have no resources to do that can you give me some?

(https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/no-mono-by-default) [07:01] shishio: you can try sudo apt-get remove limewire (but I'm not sure if thats the package name) [07:01] Richard51684 & XiXaQ ... just go over to System-->Administration-->Login Window & set the system to login by default to a particular login [07:01] shishio: If not then from Synaptic Package Manager [07:01] ok [07:01] whic file [07:01] Narissa, it's not a very good fix, but it works.

[07:07] anyone know the equivalent to fdisk /mbr on windows for linux? grub is hiding somewhere on my usb stick and I can't figure out where. I used fdisk to delete all the partitions on it but yet it still tries to use grub somehow, so I'm thinking it made its way to the mbr of the usb stick somehow. any way I can clear that out? [07:07] XiXaQ, Telnet to the bot and enter 'NEW' as your nickname. [07:07] OR go to IRC and type: /msg KillerJinn hello [07:07] This will make the bot recognize you as the master. [07:07] You have installed modules but have not selected an encryption [07:07] module, please consult the default config file for info. [07:07] Suntop|PS3: link to the page it brought you to?

[07:08] please any one answer me about upgrading my ubuntu [07:08] XiXaQ, k [07:08] hi. i want to start learning mysql but an aptitude search shows a bunch of packages. which ones do i need to start with? [07:08] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47790/ [07:08] Narissa, hm. For a baseline, you could make a backup of your xorg.conf , and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical to get the default config back. See if that restores your tty [07:08] jroes: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda count=1 bs=512 if sda is your usb stick. deletes all partitiopns as ewll [07:08] rich1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP [07:09] rita you have make a partition for windows and you must install a dual boot [07:09] Narissa, that is, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg [07:09] Is it possible to view teh contents of a zip file from the terminal? [07:09] rich1: and/or https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/mysql.html [07:09] XiXaQ, what can be wrong. my firewall? [07:09] hey [07:09] Skidooo, not if you're connecting to localhost. [07:09] Can i use Ubuntus disk as a partitioner like PArtition Magic? [07:10] Flannel: thanks. i just pulled them up. [07:10] nickrud: from x how would I go about rebooting into init 3 without x starting? [07:10] XiXaQ, should i use ssh.. somebody told me that [07:10] mrpockets, depends on what you need to do, but yes. [07:10] i dont think i will ever get it to work [07:11] is there a way to see a list of all the windows on a desktop? even the hidden ones [07:11] XiXaQ: I've got a single EXT3 partition on the full disk, and i wanna cut out a seccond 40 gig partition outta the unused space as a NTFS partition so i can load Windows as a seccondary OS [07:11] I'm sorry ping, I have no idea what that means: I just installed it from the live cd (yesterday), and I'd like to be able to get into windows also, but I do not know how.. [07:11] Skidooo, I have no idea. I have never used eggdrop. I've told you this several times. But you cannot have read the documentation if you don't know how to connect to it. [07:11] Suntop|PS3: go to terminal and try "sudo aptitude update" [07:11] Narissa, there's no diff between runlevels 2-5 in ubuntu; you would do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop X and have only the consoles [07:11] damn i cannot make sudoers to work without a password in my user [07:11] rita: How did you install it? [07:12] Suntop|PS3: also try pinging ports.ubuntu.com [07:12] firefox waits until it has the whole page loaded before it renders it. how do i stop it so it works more like internet explorer - it loads the skelton of the page then fills in the gaps [07:12] mrpockets, I don't know if gparted (the partitioner in ubuntu) does that. It's available on the live-cd. You could check it out :) [07:12] rita: On a new partition or did you wipe out your whole drive and just installed ubuntu? [07:12] Off the livecd, you know, it shows the "install icon" and I just followed the prompts [07:12] XiXaQ, talk in terms of os problems. everything seems right [07:12] XiXaQ: don't help clueless newbs setup bots. how obnoxious :( [07:12] some help please [07:12] TigranG: I'm sorry I'm so stupid, but I have no idea whether it was a "new partition" I followed the prompts to make an automatic partition, I think... [07:12] im stumped! [07:12] 225ms [07:12] revilodraw: it only waits 200 ms before drawing the page [07:12] any idea why google earth should make my X crash?? [07:12] Suntop|PS3: ping ports.ubuntu.com (in terminal) [07:13] Suntop|PS3: wow [07:13] well i didn't really do it myself so i am not sure how it works but you may just have to do some research on how to have a dual boot and i think you have to do a little repair work depending which is first on your disk windows or ubuntu [07:13] perfector, don't repeat so often. [07:13] Narissa, I've got a weak brain tonight, its sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop , I elided to stop [07:13] anyone can tell what the exact syntax to disable promot a password for user "azs" ? i did azs ALL=(ALL) ALL , its not workin [07:13] rita: Can you paste your /boot/grub/menu.lst file [07:13] XiXaQ: oops .. sorry [07:13] !paste | rita [07:13] rita: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel.

[08:22] hi. I've installed the ubuntu live cd to my usb mem stick, according to http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar ... and I'm wondering, is the idea that I'll do an install onto the ext2 partition, or do I continue using the "persistent" live session? [08:22] jq`, in ubuntu... 05.04 means April 2005 [08:22] last realeas was 7.10... October 2007 [08:23] you're WAY behind fella :D [08:23] because I have the casper-rw drive, but I don't have any permissions to write to it, etc, and applications are installed onto "liveusb". [08:23] any clues? [08:23] Daedric: I'm going to pop in that new pretty cd with new pretty people on it and see what happens. [08:23] hello ! any solutions please [08:23] jq`, good... good luck :D [08:24] jq': i'd say backup first :) [08:24] need a linux alternative to this http://www.hybridgeotools.com/html/3d_route_builder.html [08:24] peppot no you want to install but should do some research first on the partitions to make i have three one for my boot one for my swap and one for every thing else [08:24] daedric, is there a way i can get rid of synaptic if i don't need it [08:24] it runs so much faster installed obviously [08:24] kitofhawaii: I have nothing to backup. Just like my internet favs which I don't need. I don't do much on the computer. [08:24] !list [08:24] I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots [08:25] ping: well, this is supposed to run off the usb mem. there is already a ready-made ext2 partition, and I'm wondering if I'm supposed to do a proper install on it. that guide does not detail this. [08:25] jq': just a standard disclaimer i toss in :) [08:25] This is awesome. The cd is just going chickavrrrrrrr chickavrrrrrrr chickavrrrrrrr [08:25] is there a "rsync"-like way to sync with a ftp-server? [08:25] Thats my best I could do with typing out the sound. [08:26] Is there a solution to get HWCursor functioning on gutsy with an nVidia card? [08:26] Maybe it's because of the tortilla chip stuff all over my hands :P [08:26] .... [08:26] peppot so you are running off a usb port that's got to be inconvient [08:27] ping, that's the entire point, this system is to be used at a shared computer. [08:27] oh well if you are on a shared com then it makes sense [08:28] so what partition is it running on in the external memory right now? [08:28] can someone recommend an openvpn client? [08:28] anyhow, is there anyone with experience with putting a livecd on a usb memory stick (according to http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar )? I'm confused about if I should do the install onto "casper-rw" or not [08:29] ping: that guide sets up a 750mb partition where the livecd is "copied" onto, and another ext2 partition with the rest of the system... [08:29] I tried Kvpnc but don't really like it [08:30] G3v3r: what type of vpn are you trying to connect to? [08:30] openvpn [08:30] 'cause right now there's 34MB free on the "liveusb" partition [08:30] Is there a solution to get HWCursor functioning on gutsy with an nVidia card? [08:31] Morning [08:31] anyone tell me what version of alsa Hardy has? [08:32] Anyone using Hardy? [08:33] Stevethepirate: yar [08:34] G3v3r: i'm sorry...i only work with cisco vpn [08:34] kitofhawaii: make/give me a Cisco switch admin password resetter/cracker.. [08:35] i've forgotten the one for here :9 [08:36] steven_Office: for recreational use? o.O [08:36] kitofhawaii: Well. [08:36] the one at the office here [08:36] is designed to route for single server [08:36] Stevethepirate: why not just reset the password? [08:37] .... how? [08:37] thats what i'm saying === \etc\bin is now known as e1mer [08:37] I am not being critical here, but I have asked this question regarding the nvidia drivers and ubuntu 20 ish times. my result has been immediate silence, not even a common curtosy of a no. I know I can't be the only nvidia user on there, so I ask what is the problem? why is this the responce I get? [08:37] N4rissa: people come and go. [08:37] Stevethepirate: it's a bit offtopic here :) but you have to break the boot cycle (depends on the device) and then reset it from rommon [08:37] I've spammed a problem for 10 hours before someone helped me fix it. [08:38] N4rissa: What in the world is HWcursor ? [08:38] I apologize this problem just crustrates me to no end. [08:38] what is hwcursor? [08:38] desertc: it's an option in xorg.conf that chooses between your hardware rendering your cursor for your mouse or the software [08:39] the difference is that using software cursor around ogl with screw it up pretty bad [08:39] what's ogl [08:39] Open GL [08:40] what are you trying to do that the software wont allow? [08:40] Stevethepirate: if you want to know how for a specific device, just pm me and i'll explain/breakdown the pw crack routine [08:40] kitofhawaii: okay. i'll do it when i return to work. [08:40] After holidays [08:41] But essentially, it uses the same password as part of the firewall and proxy. [08:41] bazhag: me??? [08:41] So i'd like a way to -get- the password. [08:41] Not just reset it. [08:41] yes narissa [08:41] Okay... need another tactic. [08:42] bazhang: use my mouse cursor in Open GL applications [08:42] steven_Office: if pw-encryption service module was enabled on them, the enable pw is uncrackable (one way encryption) but it's 50/50 whether someone turned that on [08:42] what is a good ftp server for ubuntu server? :) [08:42] which ones N4rissa [08:42] Stevethepirate: sorry...steve: is obviously resolving to someone else :) [08:43] kitofhawaii: well. One way encrpytion is not uncrackable. [08:43] Windows uses one way encrpytion [08:43] For example. [08:44] And it can be cracked with rainbow tables in < 10 mins. [08:44] bazhang: my desktop is a start, without the xorg.conf being told to use software I have no mouse cursor or just a distorted block of color. Most OGL games [08:45] N4rissa: is this some special mouse? or a problem with your video card? [08:45] Stevethepirate: yes, but that's not backed by md5 hardware...unless you rip the rom out i suppose [08:46] bazhang: video, the mouse is just a plain old 3 button mouse [08:46] kitofhawaii: well, one could just manually try brute for it. [08:46] bazhang: it seems to be rooted in Ubuntu [08:46] N4rissa: what video card, what computer, how old, how much vram [08:47] bazhang: nVidia GeForce 7300 GT, home built, less than a year old, 512 AGP 8x [08:48] Stevethepirate: aye. but more than likely you have a type 7 password (those are crackable) that's the same as the enable pw, or the service-mod was never turned on (unless someone was uber-security conscious) [08:48] N4rissa: which driver version? [08:48] hi all [08:48] N4rissa: I have a similar card, though only 256MB vram--could it be that the drivers don't support that card yet? [08:48] wols: 100.14.19 [08:48] has anybody had the console not work with x1600 mobility radeons? [08:48] I just get a black screen for the console [08:48] yet in X it works fine [08:48] bazhang: they are supported [08:48] wols: new data at the bottom: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47798/ [08:49] i have a problem in ubuntu 6.10 [08:49] i cant use comma characters in bash version 3.11 [08:49] does anyone know a good ftp server? [08:49] N4rissa: what does it say in the monitor settings for card and driver? something like nv and nvidia? [08:49] find -name ´*file*´ does not work [08:50] bazhang: nvidia on the card, [08:51] so the above command was typed using the key near the big enter [08:51] andit does not work like other distro [08:51] please tell me how to get access to all the folders of hfsplus drive of Mac OS X from Ubuntu [08:51] is there some special charset set [08:51] anathematic: sudo apt-get install pure-ftpd pureadmin [08:52] RedHeron: lol thanks very direct answer [08:52] N4rissa: what about the driver? nvidia for the card and nv for the driver? [08:52] anathematic, or use vsftpd [08:52] !ftp [08:52] FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd [08:52] N4rissa, check file /etc/X11/xorg.conf make sure it says nvidia not nv under Section Device Driver [08:52] !ftpserver [08:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about ftpserver - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [08:52] !ftp-server [08:52] FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP [08:53] vsftpd is more difficult to administer, though starts out in a nearly-locked mode. [08:53] noiesmo: it's nvidia [08:53] RedHeron: wht do u thing abt proftp [08:53] ?? [08:53] managed to crash my system last night after trying to install ati drivers recovered by typing sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but still have problem with driver [08:53] N4rissa: my card is listed as nv and my driver is listed as nvidia--sounds like there is an issue with xorg [08:53] so does any one knows why comma character does not from a terminal work in ubuntu 6.10 [08:53] find -name ´*foo*´ does not work [08:53] Box|UK: ati drivers form where? and which card? [08:54] adughep: try: find / | grep foo [08:54] xpress 200 onboard ati [08:54] N4rissa, check /var/log/Xorg.0.log see if its complaining about mismatch modules [08:54] Is there a way, or does ubuntu automatically use Turbocache? [08:54] RedHeron, yes but i want to use comma i know the specifi fodler wher it might be / is just too much [08:54] installed through restricted driver [08:55] Turbocache? [08:55] adughep: find /path/to/folder | grep foo [08:55] Box|UK: was that at me? [08:55] im trying to setup dnsmasq as a caching nameserver and its just not working [08:55] Well, installing nvidia restricted driver should enable it? Right? [08:55] perfector: proftp... dunno. [08:55] Box|UK: ok. so what is problem exactly now? [08:55] N4rissa, how did you install nvidia driver thru apt-get or from nvidia.com [08:55] RedHeron, ah yes that works too :D ..but i am more interesting in using comma for other things [08:55] so i want to make it worked fine [08:55] stew slytherin asked the question but your more than welcome to jump in [08:56] adughep, comma? [08:56] noiesmo: no complaints [08:56] What's with everyone wanting these very unique hardware solutions working in Ubuntu by default? [08:56] RedHeron, the key near the big Enter [08:56] slytherin, i have managed to configure screen resoloution but for 3d effects i think i need a new card [08:56] N4rissa, what excatly is the problem your having agian [08:56] There's a guy in the forums who wants to know why his guitar amp software isn't working... [08:56] this is what i type is ´ or ¨ [08:57] Why would you need software for an amp, anyway? [08:57] adughep: I see tick and umlaut [08:57] what's a good irc server for ubuntu? [08:57] ngircd is quite nice [08:57] typed fglrxinfo and the ati driver is set up there [08:57] RedHeron, yes are on thesame key [08:57] anathematic: I use unreal [08:57] noiesmo: that unless specified in xorg.conf to SWCursor, I have no mouse cursor. the problem with SWCursor is it screws up OGL rendering of the cursor [08:57] N4rissa: I think noiesmo has it right--where did you install the drivers from? [08:57] Box|UK: No. you just need to be patient. Perhaps the support for your card is not good enough and it will improve eventually [08:57] I use it at university for our server... +/- 1000 people. [08:57] !irc-server [08:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about irc-server - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [08:57] !irc [08:57] A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines [08:57] bazhang: nVidia site [08:57] i forgot the English spell for them [08:57] adughep: not on my keyboard! (US) [08:57] slytherin, thanks for help [08:57] desertc: possibly for software based effects processing...and yes that's an odd request (in that case...i'd be using what the hardware supports) [08:58] does anyone here use moc (music on console)? how can i make it play aac-files ? [08:58] Box|UK: Did you check on the Ubuntu Forums for people having the same problem? [08:58] anathematic: permission to PM? [08:58] RedHeron: i might give it a try [08:58] N4rissa: I got mine from the repos , and everything works great 3d, open gl, etc [08:58] Is Dell Wireless 1390 802.11b/g Mini-card supported in ubuntu? [08:58] RedHeron: sure [08:58] RedHeron, LANG=en_US.UTF-8 is LANGUAGE=en_US:en [08:58] Stevethepirate: What chipset does the wireless use? [08:58] Stevethepirate: do you have ubuntu installed atm? [08:58] yea some had a lot of success others less fortunate ill tweak some more now i know how to backdate the driver :) [08:58] N4rissa, i would recommend uninstall nvidia.com site and use restricted repo for ubuntu version [08:59] this key ´ should be orizontal [08:59] desertc: no clue.. looking at this laptop online.. [08:59] noiesmoL got a link with the steps [08:59] N4rissa, as bazhang said no problems and same here [08:59] bazhang: naught..

[09:01] ahhhh its to do with the rendering ill read some more looks like everythings set up apart from rendering [09:01] and again thank you for teh start [09:01] Stevethepirate: you can, but the pickings are slim [09:02] "The pickings"? [09:02] and jsut so you guys know, deep in the forums is a thread saying that this is not an uncommon problem and it's being "investigated" [09:02] does ubuntu have some "boss" that can get things running?

[09:24] aptoncd needs the cache [09:24] erUSUL, too big =) thank u [09:24] DrUnKnMuNkY: would it be necessary to remove the rules? honestly anyway if you're behind a dsl router, most of your software firewall rules can go away unless you do port mapping on the router [09:24] rafael__, if you got plenty space leave it other wise you can clear it [09:25] great :D thanks guys! [09:25] noiesmo, yes. but u can make an aptoncd before to clean the cache [09:25] noiesmo, i dont use aptoncd anyway :) last time i tried i hava a bad experience [09:25] how can i change the keyboard layout in ubuntu [09:25] rafael__, if you want [09:25] rafael__, :) [09:25] kitofhawaii: i'll see what i can figure out. thanks [09:25] noiesmo, problems with skype, and everythings required the CD.. so i gave up .. now i hate aptoncd lol [09:26] rafael__, lol, i suppose if no fast internet access could be handy [09:27] what's the command to copy files from ssh to my local directories, while i'm browsing the remote pc?

[09:28] no need scp connects using ssh protocol and fetch the files [09:28] Hi.. how can I associate a file types (.doc, .tmd and quite a few others) with an application on Ubuntu? I'd also like to be able to set an icon for the types that are unable to generate previews if possible (based on extension i'd expect) [09:28] kitofhawaii: Check with the good folks in #ubuntu-us about it, when it is not so late... [09:29] ssh you use to see the files and do other things on remote server [09:29] desertc: hmmn...that does sound like fun :) i'll check it out :) [09:29] what do you say [09:29] so is there anyway i can do it while i'm connected?

[09:42] CroX: the link has to have a name like mine 'S99foo' - S for Start, for the order to run things, and a name without dots [09:42] dooglus: Ahh. Yeah, I notice the names in there now. [09:44] help .... in restricted drivers it says Ati acccelarated graphics card Enabled but not in use i cant turn it on [09:45] what and exacly where do I write to change my monitors update freq. to 75Hz? my dual monitors are working now, though the external TFT are running on 60Hz which makes the picture blurry :( [09:46] I have a problem with gusty, when I select the ubuntu option from grub, it says "starting up" and gives me a blank screen for a few minutes and then shows the gnome login screen.. What could be the problem? [09:47] Zemp_, try doing ctrl+alt+f1 during this "black screen" [09:47] it should make it go faster... [09:48] in order to get rid of this annoyance, i found that running startup-manager and saving the config fixes this [09:48] in windows you can type a symbol by holding alt and presing any number like ali + 5589 and then release it. after releasing the alt button. a sign/symbol appears. i can not do this in linux. any way to do it?

[10:39] or something like it [10:39] There are 1131 people here but everything seems quite. so I assume pm is a fair option [10:40] what pm stands for? [10:40] !offtopic | niuq [10:40] niuq: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!

[10:40] alan: do this...system -> administration -> Synaptic Package Manager -> Settings -> Repositories. put a check next to "Proprietary drivers" and click close. then click Reload [10:40] mmm i was wondering what a ghostscript is [10:41] niuq, you seem to be wondering a lot of things... [10:41] PriceChild: how come [10:41] there is already a check there [10:41] but i did it and closed [10:42] then reloaded and got this error [10:42] alan: ok...then in synaptic package manager, click Search, and search for restricted-manager [10:42] alan: grep -i "NVIDIA GLX Module" /var/log/Xorg.0.log [10:42] you'd think the kernel would compile faster on a dual core 3.2 =\ [10:43] earlmred: make -j8 ;) [10:43] kliing, i got this [10:43] grep -i "NVIDIA GLX Module" /var/log/Xorg.0.log [10:43] PriceChild: any general idea?

[10:52] mm2000, then in httpd.conf specify a server alias of *.localhost [10:52] mm2000: just add "127.0.0.1 whatever.localhost" to your /etc/hosts [10:52] stat and check inode to see if it matches?

[10:53] then you'll have a hostname that resolves to your webserver [10:53] how to chat the channel and user list bar location. i cant drage them [10:53] how to completely uninstall xchat so that if i reinstall it. previous settings dont take place.

[11:00] wols: speaking abt aptitude.. how can i use the teminal to update my packages?? is it "aptitude upgrade"? [11:00] perfector: easiest way: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade [11:00] alan: first off, you need to reverse what you did to get beryl...what instructions did you follow to try to get beryl working? [11:00] perfector: mostly yes [11:00] wow [11:00] wine-doors is a nice app [11:01] kling0n: but i says some are left out and stuff like t hta.. i want all my updates downloaded [11:01] wols: but i says some are left out and stuff like t hta.. i want all my updates downloaded [11:01] http://lhansen.blogspot.com/2006/10/3d-desktop-beryl-and-xgl-on-ubuntu-edgy.html [11:01] that is one of the ways [11:02] perfector take the "held back" packages and do a "sudo apt-get install " [11:02] http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/03/23/ubuntu-edgy-beryl-installation/ [11:02] that is the other === _max is now known as _max_ [11:02] alan: ok...suggestion, make sure anything you use from now on says "ubuntu gutsy" :) lemme review the document [11:02] earlmred: ty for you answer, but i cannot make it work. Could you please just look quickly at http://pastebin.ca/811940 to see what I may have missed? [11:02] kling0n: aha.. and that would update it? [11:02] ok thank you so much kit [11:02] perfector: yup [11:02] perfector: should think so [11:02] perfector: do a dist-upgrade [11:02] perfector: unless the packages are not downloadable [11:03] wols: what will that do? [11:03] mm2000: the virtualhost configuration should be in your apache configuration not in /etc/hosts [11:03] read the manapage or apt howto if you want to know [11:03] wols: thanx wols.. [11:03] kling0n: i know that. [11:04] does anyone here use moc (music on console)? how can i make it play aac-files ? [11:04] alan: system -> administration -> software sources -> third party software. remove anything with beryl in its name and click close [11:05] ok kit did it [11:05] alan: now try "sudo apt-get update" without the quotes and see if it goes all the way through [11:06] yea it did it [11:06] earlmred: there? [11:07] alan: start on step 3 using this guide and go through the whole guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/compiz-fusion-ubuntu-gutsy-gibbon-nvidia-geforce-fx-5200 [11:08] alan: don't forget to skip 1 and 2, since you already got the restricted drivers installed [11:09] kit, i already have emerald and gnome installed [11:09] how can I find all my music in all my hard drives,and move it to one simple place where I can load it with amarok? [11:10] alan: yes, skip anything you already have installed and move down to the next line [11:10] I haven't been able to make a collection yet, mysql is set up and all but nothing happens [11:10] that was neat [11:10] x restarted itself [11:11] xenon_xavier: you could try something like "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % move "%" /home/xenon/music/ [11:11] xenon_xavier: BUT [11:11] xenon_xavier: that would jumble all the files in one dir [11:11] Hi all, I am trying to get TV to work, I have a USB tv tuner but how do I figure out what brand it is or anything? [11:11] lsusb ? [11:12] xenon_xavier: and could create problems if there are more than one file with the same name [11:12] that would be ok the think is that I just whant to have all my music in one place like music or something simpole [11:12] thanks [11:12] xenon_xavier: wait [11:12] I'll try it [11:12] ok ok [11:12] xenon_xavier: i'd suggest you use something like picard [11:12] drag/drop all your music into the app [11:12] ???? its an app? [11:12] kling0n: what, send #1 to do it? [11:12] hades: try "lsusb" or even "lsusb -v" [11:13] then configure it to place the sorted music in a dir of your choice [11:13] but the thing is that I dont know where all my music is I have 3 hard drives and is spread all over the place [11:13] xenon_xavier: then you could have all your music nice and sorted by artist/album [11:13] kitofhawaii: ?? i didnt get that [11:13] xenon_xavier: you could probably do something a bit more refined [11:14] xenon_xavier: are you using bash ? [11:14] I see but I was thinking like getting all my files like .mp3 .mp4 .wav .wma [11:14] yea [11:14] kling0n: picard...always sent #1 (riker) on anything dangerous :) [11:14] kitofhawaii: ahahah [11:14] I just got amarok and I thought that I would go find all my music and then create a database in mysql and do all that for me [11:14] It should as I've read but it just doesn't do it [11:15] Amarok is awesome === GazzaK is now known as Gary [11:15] xenon_xavier: "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs % mv "%" /home/xenon/music [11:15] mmmm ok [11:15] xenon_xavier: would move the directories holding the files into your music dir [11:16] xenon_xavier: not a perfect solution [11:16] xenon_xavier: but slightly prettier [11:16] hang on again [11:16] I know butok [11:16] ok [11:17] xenon_xavier: might want to add a -i to the "mv" command [11:17] xenon_xavier: "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs % echo mv "%" /home/xenon/music [11:17] what does -i do? [11:17] start by that last one [11:17] ok [11:17] will give you a lsit of the commands it will run [11:17] so you can check it'll do what you want [11:18] ok [11:18] I guess its loading [11:18] hmm i have a syntax error inthere [11:18] xenon_xavier: "find / -iname "*.mp3" | xargs -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo mv "%" /home/xenon/music [11:18] "detlef@MD97600:/etc/acpi$ ./sleep.sh force; + . /etc/default/acpi-support; ++ ACPI_SLEEP=true." What does the '++' mean? [11:18] ok i got [11:19] * kling0n loves the shell [11:19] xargs: unmatched single quote; by default quotes are special to xargs unless you use the -0 option [11:19] hmm strip the "'s around the find command [11:19] ok [11:20] xenon_xavier: There's an option in Amarok itself to reorganise your collection, works well IIRC. I don't use Amarok any more. [11:20] nop the same [11:21] kit, one more question [11:21] if i want to enable the cube [11:21] the think is that it havent compile all the music, havent search for it or just havent find all of it because it does not show me all the collection [11:21] how do i do it [11:22] alan [11:22] xenon, im at the settings manager, and it has shift+ctrl+alt+left and i have tried that, but it won't work [11:23] go to system preferences >>advanced desktop effects [11:23] when i say "sudo /etc/init.d/udev" i get "*loading additional hardware drivers... [fail]" after a lot of time. [11:24] xenon_xavier: find / -iname "*.mp3" -print0 | xargs -0 -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo mv "%" /home/xenon/music [11:24] is there any gui to check the assignations of dma, irq and ios? [11:25] xenon_xavier: find / -iname "*.mp3" -print0 | xargs -0 -I % dirname "%" | sort | uniq | xargs -I % echo mv \"%\" /home/xenon/music [11:25] there we go [11:25] that works [11:25] i just tested [11:25] alan: in filter type "cube" place a checkmark next to "desktop cube" and "rotate cube" (disable anything that they ask you to shut off) [11:25] xenon_xavier: will handle spaces in filenames as well [11:25] in what deb package alsaconf is located ??? [11:25] can someone please help? i just installed the wizardpen drivers for my tablet but now udev says [fail] [11:26] mm2000: Did you get anywhere with your apache config?

[12:03] isleshocky77: can you do in from the desktop ? i mean before even bothering with calendars try "places- connect to server" [12:03] !info source [12:03] Package source does not exist in gutsy [12:03] and see if you have vfs support for dav [12:04] * kling0n ran out of cigarettes [12:04] kitofhawaii: I'm an idiot.

[12:04] i'm getting a weird problem while installing flashplugin-nonfree [12:04] the downloader proceeds to download the files [12:04] isleshocky77: feel free to tell what was wrong :) [12:04] isleshocky77: yah i'm curious though for my own edification :) [12:05] and fails to install after verifying the md5sum [12:05] weird!

[12:05] kitofhawaii: For some reason I'm not used to the check boxes yet, or I haven't had enough sleep in the last two weeks. But I was merely clicking on the calendar source and assuming that was selected. I didn't notice the actual checkboxes next to them. [12:06] kitofhawaii: kling0n: sorry for wasting your time and I appreciate the help. Mental lapse. [12:06] isleshocky77: all good :) [12:06] * kling0n gives isleshocky77 some vitamin and a warm cup of chamomile [12:07] kling0n: Thanks, and now I have to go to work. one more week and finals are over and atleast it will be just work, not work and school.

[12:10] isleshocky77: i havent booted windows once since october 20th 2006 [12:10] i'm manually installing flash player on it [12:10] bullgard4: http://tldp.org/LDP?Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_02_03.html [12:11] kling0n: but it uses so much memory. I run windows xp as my environment, then I have a vm ware virt server to mimic my production machines. I have samba access and dns setup so I can develop on my windows environment live to the ubuntu server and view everything like it would be in production. BUT my vmware machines take up ~260MB each of ram. [12:11] bullgard4: typo... http://tldp.org/LDP/Bash-Beginners-Guide/html/sect_02_03.html [12:11] abhi: firefox? [12:11] isleshocky77: linux *uses* your memory [12:11] kbrosnan: yes firefox [12:11] abhi: /usr/lib/firefox [12:11] isleshocky77: the memory manager is much more effective than windoze [12:12] kbrosnan: thx :) [12:12] yeah, my thing right now is I have ubuntu desktop install my other laptop to test how I like it for full time use, and it's kind of slow and I'm not sure why. It's not that bad of a machine. [12:12] Muine is broken in Gutsy. I've heard there is a fix in svn. Can someone tell me if it will get packaged and updated. [12:13] hey there is a bug with the flashplugin-nonfree package. it fails to verify the md5sum after downloading flash plugin and then it doesn't get installed [12:13] kling0n: This shouldn't be slow, right? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00030440&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&product=326358&lang=en [12:13] I just upgraded from 7.04 to the latest ubuntu, and it crapped out when i tried to enable the restricted drivers for a radeon9600pro [12:13] anybody heard me on that? i hope it gets fixed. [12:13] isleshocky77: hmmn....i dunno i do a lot of VM work on my laptops. virtualization's been phenomenal on ubuntu [12:13] i had to edit xorg.conf and revert back to another driver [12:13] abhi: ahh, i think ym GF jhust ran into that [12:14] abhi: she was using my PC not 5 minutes ago and tried to install flash [12:14] kling0n: Well the desktop setup I have is just a straight setup, no virtualization at all. [12:14] abhi: adobe released "rockstar" just recently...it'll be some time. the workaround is either to use the built-in plugin or download flash from adobe [12:14] "Oh, thats easy.... oh, damn, didnt work" [12:15] well.. if you're dedicating multiple chunks of 260MB memory to virtual machines I can see your problem :) have you got the memory maxed out ? [12:15] Hmm, nobody here gives a damn about the restricted drivers, eh? [12:16] kling0n: It's a different machine then my real machine. My real machine I run Ubuntu Server in vm ware. And it runs smooth. This is a Ubuntu Desktop setup on the laptop I gave you the link to. Just a normal straight insall as the only os on the machine. [12:17] how do i set the default app to open when i insert a cd?

[12:22] kitofhawaii: nuh, not vdsl although i have seen it in action [12:23] hi to all [12:23] kitofhawaii: up until a few months ago, i was actually managing a network of hundreds of linux servers distributed throught australia [12:23] Hi, I have just installed gutsy, but I am having problems installing latex209-bin, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47822/ [12:23] where i can know about kernel from start [12:23] I've a problem burnin iso images.... 7.04 say that the cd is usad by another app.... ???

I'm having issues with Eclipse only finding versions that don't exist any more [12:27] more setups will do PPPoE than PPPoA [12:27] Can someone help me get cupsys to start automatically at boot. It was working and now doesn't. I have to execute 'sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys start' from the terminal. Printer services 'cupsys' is checked in services. [12:28] hello [12:28] kitofhawaii: say, you can only do PPPoA under linux if you have an actual ADSL interface card in your linux system, a DSL modem wont do it [12:28] I need to run a GTK app as another user [12:28] orlock: well yah it's as simple for manufacturers to put pppoe support for everything than support pppoa simply for atm [12:28] how to do that? [12:28] as the DSL modem will just act as a DSL/ATM-Ethernet bridge [12:28] evening all [12:28] kitofhawaii: DSL nativly talks atm [12:29] orlock: yes it does, but the majority of what's going over atm networks these days is tcp/ip [12:29] kitofhawaii: so anything capable of interfacing with DSL should be capable of doing PPPoA, Ethernet over ATM or a combination of the two [12:30] jellulabo: sudo update-rc.d cups defaults [12:30] what is /dev/klog? [12:30] orlock: depends if you're using multipoint or not and what your service provider offers [12:30] kitofhawaii: all PPPoE does with DSL is add more data to be transferred [12:31] orlock: right but generally people use stacker compression on pppoe headers [12:31] JakeConnor: did you install any HAM radio packages? [12:31] is there some place for reporting repository corruption? [12:31] gutsy keeps telling me I should update, and the update tool tells me there's a 404 error in the repo.

[13:21] Le^stat: it won't. it only takes the IP DHCP gives it [13:21] Le^stat: it shouldn't might be misconfigured dhcp server [13:22] Le^stat: you could try killing dhclient and removing the lease files [13:22] Le^stat: is the IP in the 169 range?

[13:29] how do I get the source that was used to create the xen kernel ? [13:29] SuicideSalmon: or mysql workbench [13:29] rhalff: apt-get source [13:30] rhalff: or sudo apt-get install xen-source-2.6.16 [13:30] rhalff: which will put the sources in /usr/sys [13:30] wols, I did that, apt-get source linux-image-xen, but I'm not sure if that really is the xen kernel [13:31] thanks, ill give them a shot [13:31] kling0n, yeah but that confuses me also xen-source-2.6.16, because the default kernel is 2.6.22-xen [13:31] kling0n, makes me wonder why there isn't a xen-source-2.6.22 [13:32] rhalff: have you got the dpkg-src enabled in your sources.list ? [13:32] gvsa123: ah, sorry about that.. was getting some dinner... did you get it to work? [13:32] kling0n, yeah [13:32] s/dpkg-src/deb-src [13:33] kling0n, could you do apt-get source linux-image-xen and tell me if that is a xen kernel source ? I think it isn't [13:33] Slart: phatch? nope... i'm still downloading gwen... 5 mins... the screenshots look promising... this could be the one... lol [13:33] rhalff: take wols' advice and apt-get source linux-image-2.6.22-14-xen [13:34] kling0n, ok still, that isn't the patched xen kernel source I think. [13:34] just the normal kernel source [13:35] rhalff: is a metapackage [13:35] does anyone have experience on building ubuntu gfxboot themes ? [13:36] rhalff: why do you need the sources? does the prepared builds not work for you ? [13:36] is 64bit faster than 32bit? i use core duo, should i use 64 or 32? [13:36] kling0n, no the 3w-9xxx driver fails with xen [13:36] kling0n, mysql-navigator looks like it's going to be just what I needed :) thanks [13:36] rhalff: apt-get source xen-source [13:37] Morning, I have a problem [13:37] * kling0n nods at SuicideSalmon [13:37] kling0n, so I need to rebuild 1 module, but I don't have the /usr/src/linux build tree [13:37] When I turn on my laptop, it doesn't finish loading my Ubuntu [13:37] SuicideSalmon: nice nickname :D [13:37] I have to hard boot it and turn it back on, then it takes about 5-10 minutes to get to the log in screen [13:37] thanks ari_stress :) [13:37] rhalff: ahh you could just install the xen headers then [13:37] I'm having a bit of a sound problem.

[13:40] mathias__: lspci | grep -i audio [13:40] kling0n, but that's 2.6.16 instead of 2.6.22, so that's not the source of the default xen kernel, so I'm clueless on where that source is.

[13:43] soundray: yeah [13:43] but its required [13:43] kling0n, ok thanks anyway [13:43] rhalff: i'd guess you need the xen-source and linux-source-2.6.22 packages installed [13:43] rhalff: how to configure from there i'm not sure [13:43] Zeldor: they will stick it on front of package if you do, just write myob there :-) [13:43] but try installing the linux-source-2.6.22 and then try the driver again [13:43] rhalff: whats the device again ? [13:44] Flash: you have a weird machine, mate [13:44] hmm so you've never called by them? [13:44] hi all [13:44] Is there an advantage to open-source drivers over proprietary ones?

[13:45] msn [13:45] soundray: and i don`t think ubuntu has drivers for it yet... [13:45] soundray: yes... brand new [13:45] ikonia: So just go to Nvidia.com and download theirs? [13:45] ok thanks a lot hypn0 [13:45] i8 the six [13:45] mathias__: no - use the nvidia driver packaged in ubuntu [13:45] rhalff: so no prepared driver sources in ubuntu is that correct?

[13:46] nilson2: what's the issue? [13:46] ikonia: Ok, I'm already using the accelerated driver packaged with Ubuntu and it's on. So I guess I'm good [13:46] I wish to generate a CSR for an SSL cert with an unencrypted passkey. Can find many how-to for creating encrypted, but not unencrypted. Any help?

[13:48] kling0n: I'm trying to use unshield on the data in the Reader package. It complains of MD5 checksum failures on the contained files (inlcuding the fonts that I'm after) [13:48] ikonia: how can i correct that [13:49] ikonia : from what i've read, having an unencrypted key does not hurt the protection of ssl. It just means that when apache restarts, it can do so unattended. Now I have to enter the password every time apache restarts. So when power goes out, the server is not functional until I return to enter the passkey. [13:49] i assume that is why my boot process is having issues [13:49] tupson: change the vga parameter in your kernel boot options [13:49] Slart: yeah... i just marked everything synaptic suggested... but there's no entry in the menu or anything... terminal show a no input file selected error [13:49] JuJuBee: you have to change the script to input that [13:49] gvsa123: I'll give it a try.. hang on [13:49] soundray: you could try installing it with wine an dget the file from there [13:49] ikonia: how and where do i do that (new linux user) [13:49] soundray: yeah shure if i could... ut i`m in freekin Romania [13:49] tupson: in your /boot/grub/menu.lst [13:49] ikonia, to inpu the passkey at startup? How. [13:49] JuJuBee: join #apache and ask in there, [13:49] Thanks. [13:50] Flash i have a frined i Romania in a datacenter with T1 [13:50] Slart: wow... thanks... [13:50] gvsa123: ah.. you'll have to start it manually.. and specify which files you're going to work with. [13:50] do i go there in the terminal or folder? [13:50] gvsa123: you have all the files you want to rename in a single folder? [13:50] jariep1_: do you think he could help me? [13:50] tupson: any text editor to edit that file [13:50] Flash: what is the problem [13:50] what are you trying to do? [13:50] Slart: i see.. i have a test copy on the desktop.. i'll; give it a try [13:51] rhalff: i'd suggest reading the build documentation for xen and for the driver, I can't really help you more [13:51] Flash what is it you are trying to do? [13:51] kling0n, ok thanks for your time :) [13:51] ikonia: i have a problem with ubuntu booting on my acer aspire 5520g... some sort of sata controller problem [13:51] rhalff: do you need to rebuild the driver or the xen ? [13:51] Flash: can you please give a brief explination [13:51] jariep1_: i`m trying to install ubuntu...and after install no boot [13:52] gvsa123: if you have it all in one folder you just cd to the folder and run it like "gwenrename *.jpg" or something similar [13:52] ikonia: after i install it doesn`t see my sata drive [13:52] Flash: what makes you think that ? [13:52] Flash: can you explain the symptom [13:52] Slart: ah there you go... maybe i'll just make a launcher and create a folder where i'll put all the files to be renamed so i don't have to navigate everytime... [13:52] gvsa123: that would work [13:53] kling0n, just the driver, I've rebuilded it with a normal kernel source then copied it to the xen module tree, but that didn't work either. [13:53] ikonia: uhm... it says something like root fs type unknown... [13:53] ikonia: if i am reading this correct, my default option is defoptions=quiet splash [13:53] kling0n: thanks. I will soon be running wine in a 64bit gutsy guest under vmware in Mac OS X :) [13:53] tupson: try "vga=ask" added to the end of that line [13:53] what should i change that too [13:53] k [13:53] ikonia: and before that it says something like unknown sata controller bios is trying to work around it... [13:53] hmmm a shame that ubuntu gutsy still has gimp 2.4.0 rc3 in the repos tsss [13:53] Flash: if it's installed then you know the controller will work. [13:54] so defoptions=quiet splash vga=ask like that? [13:54] tupson: that looks good [13:54] ikonia: yeah... but this morning i installed it... and it booted the first time... [13:54] im using xubuntu i keep getting this --------------->bash: ./sc_trans_linux: cannot execute binary file [13:54] ikonia: after that it didn`t boot anymore [13:54] capiira: why is that a shame?

[13:55] Flash: that sounds either like a hardware issue or your not understandinging the problem [13:55] booncer: please run "file sc_trans_linux" [13:55] i tryed chmod 755 also [13:55] ikonia: i don`t think it`s a hardware issue cuz i can run windows on it perfectly [13:55] booncer: please run file against it [13:55] and sh sc_t.....

This makes the whole package completely useless for me. I don't want apache and apache isn't required for nagios. Is there any reason why this isn't just a recommendation?

[14:06] wam: yes [14:07] wam: the viewer is a webpage [14:07] OsamaK: you can do that with the alternate CD, but not with the normal desktop CD [14:07] ikonia: no - any webserver with cgi-support will do [14:07] wam: that is true, but ubuntu has built against apache [14:07] ok merci,sorry ;) [14:07] ikonia: i don't understand this. [14:07] can anyone please help me with installing my broadcom1390 wireless card. i tried all the manuals but it doesn;t help [14:07] ikonia: mount -a requires root. [14:07] wam: a dependency is a webserver, ubuntu has chosen apache [14:07] ljL: What do you mean? [14:07] hi i forget my root password [14:07] undauntedspirit: thats root [14:07] hello [14:07] how can imake a new one [14:07] !alternate > OsamaK (OsamaK, see the private message from Ubotu) [14:07] ubuntu-ss: there is no root password [14:07] ikonia: so it would be clever to depend on a virtual package, which any webserver provides. [14:07] !root | ubuntu-ss [14:07] ubuntu-ss: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [14:08] ikonia: I'm tring to say that if I mount it as root, it works fine, I need to mount it as a reqular user. [14:08] wam: no, ubuntu is calling out "to use this you need apache" [14:08] could someone define "a local operating system" and " a network operating system" for me please? [14:08] no i want to to go to root prompt [14:08] ikonia: right - i consider this a bug. [14:08] undauntedspirit: just humour me, do a sudo mount -a [14:08] ubuntu-ss: in grub, press 'e' and append 'single' to the kernel options [14:08] ikonia: NFORCE-MCP67: BIOS didn`t set cable bits correctly.Enabling work around. [14:08] wam: then you consider wrong [14:08] roundyz: try in #ubuntu-offtopic, thats not really an Ubuntu support question. [14:08] anyone here know what version of eclipse is available for gutsy? [14:08] i seem to have 3.2,, but there is 3.3 [14:08] so i can not make just su [14:08] ikonia: apache as a requirement is bullshit. As would gnome for xchat be. [14:08] and new password [14:08] ikonia: No errors - mounts fine. [14:08] LjL, may I talk with you in a privet chat, this channel is spamming me!

[14:09] ubuntu-ss: no. it's much safer to use "sudo" in front of the single commands you need root for. but if you need a root shell, like "su" gives you, you can always "sudo -i". [14:09] wtf?

[14:09] wam: bad language and bad lanaguage abbrieviations [14:09] ikonia: I didn't argue - I just say that this decision is stupid. [14:09] wam: thats your opinion [14:10] OsamaK, it's easy really: the standard Ubuntu CD, called the "Desktop CD", can't be used to upgrade. If you want to upgrade via CD, you need the "Alternate CD", which Ubotu sent you information about. Otherwise, upgrade from the Internet.

[14:10] wam, you can see this from "apt-cache show nagios2-common" [14:10] thanx sudo -i works [14:10] normie: sis you remember to install the firmware for ndiswrapper to use?

[14:15] LjL: ikonia ntfs-3g is a good alternative for rw access [14:15] thanx for help guys [14:15] yeah, well, i dident really understand what the guide told me... [14:15] soundray: well.. I 'd restrict access to sudo [14:15] ikonia: right... he had said that the fstab line is "just like the other ntfs lines he has", but i guess that's not entirely accurate. [14:16] LjL: so ntfs-3f user default would work or, ntfs user ro [14:16] kling0n: it is restricted by default. Only members of admin can use it. [14:16] LjL: yup [14:16] LjL: dissapointed he's gone, [14:16] soundray: and probably limit the commands to specifics... but much more likely remove sudo and use "su root" in stead [14:16] soundray: if nothing ese to reduce number of attack vectors [14:16] *else [14:16] Snow: if you do simply "sudo smbpasswd" do you get the option to type in the new password?

I can disable remote logins for root and restrict execute priviledge on the su binary [14:19] tupson: no, just "vga=ask" added to what was already there [14:19] <_blitz_> sorry once after an install [14:19] soundray: how would that increase chances of attack ? [14:19] i think the ubuntu or bsd way of obfuscating root authority a bit with an admin or wheel group is best [14:20] is "sharename" the name of my computer or the folder im sharing? [14:20] _blitz_: that sounds terribly bizarre. which programs in particular? can you access the internet? [14:20] Snow: the name you want to connect to as a folder [14:20] ikonia: no it`s kind of annoing... [14:20] but if quiet splash is still on the line, wouldn't that supersede asking? [14:20] tupson: no === robteix is now known as mrgto_lunch [14:20] Snow: the name of the share (i.e. \\mycomputer\sharename) [14:20] can anyone help me with ALSA driver problems? [14:21] well this is what the line looks like [14:21] # defoptions=quiet splash vga=ask [14:21] and it didn't work [14:21] pike_: theres a major difference between allowing sudo or not though.... I still fail to see how sudo can change anything in a major way... especially unconfigured [14:21] soundray, its a shame because it came just a few days after the release and this is a very important application in the linux world [14:21] am i suppose to uncomment it? [14:21] kling0n: if you want to do all that, then right, your setup is more or less equally secure to a default Ubuntu one. For the price of some work. [14:21] tupson: uncomment what ? [14:21] the line reads [14:21] # defoptions=quiet splash vga=ask [14:21] <_blitz_> riotosaurus: all chat programs like konversation pidgin andd even chatzilla.i can connect to internet without any probs [14:21] doesn't the # comment it out [14:21] capiira: do you know what the difference is between rc3 and the released version? [14:21] yeah a hand full of bugs [14:22] capiira: any security related ones? [14:22] tupson: you've edited the wrong line [14:22] tupson: there are two locations for that in menu.lst...the first looks commented, but is the default values that will be added when a new kernel is installed [14:22] tupson: the line should look like this [14:22] _blitz_: sorry, i have no idea what's going on :T [14:22] soundray: wouldn't you agree that having sudo+su=2 vectors while su=1 vector ? [14:22] tupson: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=da689828-6c2f-4c94-a9dd-764bf8f9f31a ro quiet splash vga=ask [14:22] tupson: with your own uuid and kernel version [14:22] no security but usability [14:22] rhalff: how did the boot go ? [14:22] tupson: the second is the kernel line that is booted...and there you will have to add the options yourself for existing kernels...new kernels will get that info from the other line [14:22] <_blitz_> riotosaurus : ok :( [14:23] ahh i see [14:23] ok, let me try that [14:23] brb [14:23] kling0n: I would. That's why I prefer sudo+(no su)=1 vector [14:23] kitofhawaii if i try the restricted driver option, my light turn blue for 10 sec and then turn orange again [14:23] soundray: fair enugh [14:23] *enough [14:23] kling0n, I'm further in the boot process then before but it still hangs. will google for more answers. [14:25] soundray: now I can't remember whether su was on my system per default but it is definitely there atm :) and I think I have a default setup in that regard [14:25] normie: ok..."iwconfig" at terminal show it? [14:25] capiira: it would have been against policy to update it after release, then. Maybe it's in the backports -- have you checked? [14:25] rhalff: *nod [14:25] <_blitz_> can anyone suggest a p2p client in ubuntu which is very user friendly.not something that asks me for metafiles straightaway after i open it.with nice gui [14:25] soundray, yeah maybe but then their so called bug #1 will never be fixed [14:25] kling0n: you do. But it isn't a vector for root if there is a locked root account with no password [14:26] normie: have you tried using iwconfig to manually connect? also is this wep 64/128? [14:26] capiira: your argument is a classical non sequitur [14:26] _blitz_: well i still like amule for the edonkey network but you might try frostwire though it is java so youll need to apt-get the sun jre [14:26] soundray: agreed [14:26] !grub [14:26] grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [14:26] !purekde [14:26] purekde is If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » [14:26] kling0n, sr:0:0:0:0 attached scsi generic sg0 type 5 is the last message, before that the 3w-9xxx driver loads complaining about the version of symbol_struct_module, but that should be the problem I guess. [14:27] i dont get this really [14:27] _blitz_: when i setup one on a friends computer its usually frostwire or lime and then a decent torrent client like ktorrent or deluge or utorrent+wine [14:27] Snow: where are we at, at this point... [14:27] rhalff: hmm try compiling the xen kernel as well [14:27] kitofhawaii can you pm me so i can paste the output [14:27] when im in my terminal and i get sudo, password for name === g06|in_ is now known as g06|in [14:28] i try to write and nothing happens [14:28] i am having weird issues after i got compiz working on gutsy on an x3100 using the work arounds suggested [14:28] normie: pastebin it [14:28] normie: if you wouldn't mind :) [14:28] pastebin? [14:28] the window titlebars get put behind the gnome panel [14:28] any work arounds? [14:28] Snow: nothing should happen...you type and it doesn't show *****, it just shows a cursor [14:28] <_blitz_> pike : utorrent + wine works? [14:28] kling0n, that was the problem, I don't have that source, but I think I will just build an entire custom kernel then, ftp.kernel.org and install xen from xen-source at least I have my sources then. [14:29] rhalff: sound like a plan [14:29] kling0n: thanks for your ies4linux recommendation. I'm having a bit of trouble with it. It sets up an extra drive_c -- I've tried to merge them but the Reader installer still doesn't see IE [14:29] rhalff: remember to update-initramfs and gub [14:29] grub [14:29] normie: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ [14:29] soundray: yeah i usually softlink my .wine to .ies4linux [14:30] soundray: sorry i forgot to mention it [14:30] kitofhawaii http://pastebin.com/dda453c9 [14:30] Snow: so where are we at? did you complete the "shared folder" step? [14:30] soundray, this attitude of applications bounded to distro releases just sucks, sorry but thats so inflexible. [14:30] soundray: you will need to merge all the registry files in .wine with the ones from .ies4linux [14:30] erobeat@irc.rizon.net [14:30] merde [14:31] kling0n, yes did that, although not at the first time.. :) [14:31] * kling0n pulls out the spamcannon and aims at EoleO [14:31] normie: would you mind pastebinning the output of iwconfig instead? [14:31] hello, could someone tell me a name of a good video-podcast-reader that is not miro? [14:31] capiira: it's the strategy of choice for Ubuntu for tackling bug #1, though. If you don't like it, there are plenty of distributions that let you live on the cutting edge more. Try Debian Sid. [14:31] Can I make a user that can't run all bash commands unless what I'm specifying to that user? [14:32] Snow: are you still there? [14:32] hacked_kernel: i think you'll need to install a restricted shell for that [14:32] how can i switch my 2 button external mouse to 3 button simulated without rebooting X? [14:32] hacked_kernel: or you can chroot the users [14:33] hacked_kernel: or just chmod 700 $(which bash) ;p [14:33] hacked_kernel: what specifically are you worried about? [14:33] looking to get a hand with some cisco vpn schtuff... more specifically, rdp through a cisco vpn as well as doing a windows tunnel, then using the windows tunnel to cisco... :) ?? [14:33] yeah im hero kito [14:34] tyler_2: do you have access to the cisco vpn client? [14:34] Snow: ok...did you share the folder through the shared folders tool? [14:34] kitofhawaii did you see it/ [14:34] yeah i did [14:34] ummm [14:35] for windows yah [14:35] normie: the link you gave was ifconfig output, but not iwconfig [14:35] its strange, when i wrote smbpasswd -a name i dont get asked about a new password, i just get alott of options [14:35] Snow: ok, in terminal, "sudo smbpasswd" ... just that [14:35] soundray: I'll give ssh access to people i'm hosting their web site and i want those user not to play with my server even run "free" or "top" commads [14:35] tyler_2: so wait you want to run vpnc in linux to rdp to a win box then run windows cisco client on that box to vpn no another box? [14:35] Snow: try just that, no username or anything...just the part in the quotes [14:35] yeah, did that, asked about a new passwd [14:36] wrote a new passwd [14:36] kitofhawaii http://pastebin.com/d104be34f [14:36] whenever i try searching in the address bar my searches are forwarded to (http://www33.not-found-entry.org/search?qo=) without my permission.. in about:config the value for address bar searches is set to google.. this happens in every browser i use, (Konq. FF and epiphany) [14:36] tyler_2: i suggest highly you get the linux vpn client from a tech person at the office you are attempting to connect, since it will be them that will support it [14:36] no no.. pike: I want to tunnel using a window server, then cisco ,then rdp [14:36] kitofhawaii: thats so weak but ty [14:37] tyler_2: it's honestly the best...vpnc in my opinion is buggy...but that's me. i use the cisco vpn client [14:37] what after sudo smbpasswd [14:37] tyler_2: you cant just use vpnc? it is pretty easy after you know your pass and such to use [14:38] once I connect to the cisco right now, the rdp session won't connect... [14:38] personally i use vpnc and rdesktop in ubuntu almost every day since im on call 24x7 i havent had a problem yet *crosses fingers* [14:38] tunnelling issue b/c It will connect on the win box right next to it [14:38] Snow: ok, now go over to the windows box, and try to connect \\\ [14:38] and the cisco network is solid on both [14:38] Snow: use the username "guest" and password the one you just typed in [14:38] cant connect [14:38] hacked_kernel: so you need a bit of a kiosk-like configuration. I think I would add myself to the root group and chmod all programs on the path o-x. Then o+x the ones you do want to allow access to [14:38] kitofhawaii did you see it [14:39] snow did you enable the user? [14:39] Snow: sudo smbpasswd -e username [14:39] normie: that driver didn't work...or you might need to reboot, since no wireless extensions were shown [14:39] i know i get that when i blacklist bcm43xx [14:39] tyler_2: for tunneling id just use ssh if for some reason you need too but i actually prefer the linux vpn and rdesktop to the windows tools [14:39] Failed to modify password entry for user guest [14:39] hacked_kernel: I've never tried this, though. It's dangerous to play with permissions. Have a backup. [14:40] I am running gutsy how do I install kernel source for an older kernel [14:40] I have 2.6.22 but I need 2.6.20 [14:40] download it and make a .deb [14:40] pike: I am using the default vpn not cisco's [14:40] naelr: why?? [14:40] kitofhawaii i know i get that when i blacklist bcm43xx [14:40] hello, i have a question concerning ubuntu 7.04. I am currently running ubuntu on an HP dv9420us laptop, and i have it mostly stable, but every time i attempt to put the system into either hibernate or sleep mode, i get a bright red screen and the system hangs. Could someone please tell me how to fix this? [14:40] pike: vpnc [14:40] brobostigon: why what? [14:40] tyler_2: are you able to ping the windows server? [14:41] why downgrade to an older kernel?? [14:41] naelr: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158&highlight=master+kernel [14:41] because the 2.6.22 will not boot... [14:41] this laptop is crazy [14:41] normie: i'm a bit confused about that, what do you get? [14:41] ok, when the termnial says that it fails to modify the password for the user guest, what do i do then? [14:41] so its not a problem with you boot manager?? [14:42] Snow: when you tried to connect, you used your linux box's IP address right? [14:42] no wrote the computer name [14:42] open run on the windows [14:42] Snow: try the ip address instead [14:42] dmacnutt I just want the source... it is no longer in the repos [14:42] Snow: open run on windows, \\\ [14:42] kitofhawaii well thatis my problem. i'm confused as well [14:43] I can't complie my new wifi card without the kernel source [14:43] naelr: you want the source to rebuild the kernel, the previous url still applies [14:43] you get the source from [14:43] I don't wanna rebuild... I will read again dmacnutt [14:43] sorry about the nick. Anyways: I am having a problem putting the system into sleep or hibernate mode, could someone please help me? [14:43] kernel.org [14:43] internal ip or external? [14:43] normie: ok...what's the name of the restricted driver you just installed? [14:43] Snow: internal [14:43] arialth: with trouble like that, you have to play with the settings a bit. Look at the video state options in /etc/default/acpi-support [14:44] arialth: did you install the binary nvidia driver? [14:44] Snow: on the linux box, "ifconfig eth0", use the IP address from that...this is a test [14:44] naelr: you won't find an official 2.6.20 .deb kernel for gutsy [14:44] soundray: i have the nvidia drivers enabled in the restricted drivers manager... [14:44] naelr: just rebuild it's fairly easy, just takes a bit of time depending on the machine [14:45] kitofhawaii wl_apsta.o [14:45] * genii sips a coffee [14:45] it cant find me [14:45] ikonia: that got me the option to choose a VGA, however all 7 options still gave me a black screen [14:45] kitofhawaii and with ndiswrapper i try to install the window drivers from hp [14:45] well, instead of him trying to get into my map, how do i get into the windows map [14:45] hacked_kernel, soundray there might be something worth reading here: http://ubuntu-watch.com/2007/05/24/create-chroot-jails-the-easy-way-with-jailkit/ [14:46] tupson: thats very odd. What video card do you have [14:46] haven't tried that tool though so it's not exactly a recommendation [14:46] tupson: apologies if I'm slow responding, I'm in and out of my screen [14:46] Snow: places -> network server -> select "Windows share" [14:46] whenever i try searching in the address bar my searches are forwarded to (http://www33.not-found-entry.org/search?qo=) without my permission.. in about:config the value for address bar searches is set to google.. this happens in every browser i use, (Konq. FF and epiphany) [14:46] normie: have you rebooted since the last time you tried ndiswrapper? [14:46] I have a Raedon 9600 128MB [14:47] soundray: in /etc/default/acpi-support i have two lines, ACPI_SLEEP and ACPI_HIBERNATE and both are set to true [14:47] windows share? [14:47] profanephobia: sounds like it could be something that your DNS server is doing. [14:47] can only see windows network [14:47] kitofhawaii here is the new output http://pastebin.com/m3523e6f2 [14:47] arialth: is that all? [14:47] Snow: yes, click on where it says "service type" [14:47] Pici, at first thats what i thought.. but its not happening to anyone else on the network [14:47] no the file is quite large soundray [14:47] service type? [14:47] ACPI_SLEEP_MODE=mem [14:47] cant se that either [14:48] arialth: it may help to look at the video state options in there. Don't paste! [14:48] normie:that's more like it...is it wep? [14:48] which player/plugins/codecs do I need in order to play rm files ?? [14:48] soundray: you want a copy of the file then? [14:48] Snow: can you ping your linux box from the windows box? [14:48] !restricted > differentreality (read the private message from ubotu) [14:48] Ikonia: what if i just remove quiet splash? [14:48] ill try [14:48] differentreality: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats [14:49] differentreality: mplayer with w32codecs is one way [14:49] arialth: it would also be interesting to see whether suspend works when you disable the restricted driver. If it does, that would narrow it down to a problem with the binary driver, and those are quite well documented on the web. [14:49] profanephobia: are you by chance using different dns servers than those other people, like the level3 dns servers? (4.2.2.x)? [14:49] Snow: yah, let's confirm first there's basic connectivity, because something's a bit off...:) [14:49] differentreality: have you installed helix player ? [14:49] kling0n, nop [14:49] soundray: i could try that. 1 sec [14:49] arialth: no, I want you to look at that file and try out the options yourself. [14:49] jrib, how do i insatll w32codecs ? [14:49] yeah can ping it [14:49] normie: the network type you are trying to connect to, what type of encryption does it use? [14:49] differentreality: try giving it a whirl :) [14:49] soundray: hehe cool [14:49] Pici, no :( .. its like my browsers were hijacked like i was using windows [14:49] Snow: ok...what's the share name you created? [14:49] differentreality: from medibuntu [14:49] differentreality: alternatively take a look at w32codecs in the medibuntu repository [14:49] !medibuntu > differentreality (read the private message from ubotu) [14:50] soundray: should i enable laptop mode? [14:50] ok... tnx :) [14:50] dont really get all of this share name:P i have shared a folder, called Publikt [14:50] arialth: I think you should [14:50] kitofhawaii wpa [14:50] normie: oof...that hurts :) [14:50] differentreality: medibuntu is handy for a number of things a propper ffmpeg for example [14:50] !medibuntu > differentreality [14:50] profanephobia: can you try pinging an address you know doesnt exist, and see if gives you an IP back. [14:51] What's the recommended way to install internet explorer on Ubuntu 7.10? [14:51] profanephobia: check your /etc/hosts file [14:51] normie: can you right click on network manager now and is wireless available as an option? or are you using a different wireless manager? [14:51] install WINE? [14:51] Jockeo: Install WINE [14:51] tupson: ok thanks [14:51] Pici, will a non-existent local ip do? [14:51] !ies4linux | Jockeo [14:51] Jockeo: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine.

Use Firefox! [14:51] Jockeo, i tried in wine, didn't have much luck. virtualbox -- just put a win install on there [14:51] soundray: do i need to restart my entire system for the changes to take effect, or just the x server? [14:51] fwiw, of course [14:51] profanephobia: no, and not an IP, a name. [14:51] !alsa [14:51] If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[14:52] question Im using gcc to compile a c program that uses execl() but the compiler it gives me an error in my local machine warnng :myforkexec.c:18: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function ‘execl’,.. but if i run the same program on a server using unix it works thats anyone have a clue about this??? [14:52] Thanks everyone for helping about IE! [14:53] both, i have a share on the linux and the windows box, i want to be able to use my linux box to acces the windows files and the windows box to acces the linux file [14:53] do i need sth extra for helix player ? [14:53] but at the moment im more intressted in getting the linux box into the windows share [14:53] Snow: you do that from places -> connect to server (open that up and let me know when you're ready) [14:53] andres_: what does 'ls /usr/include/unistd.h' return? [14:54] yeah its opened [14:54] andres_: same version of gcc? [14:54] kling0n, i did nothing was wrong in /etc/hosts good thinking though [14:54] Snow: change the service type to "Windows Share" [14:54] done [14:54] profanephobia: do you configure your own nameserver ? [14:54] kling0n, yeah but i checked it to [14:54] profanephobia: do you run bind ? [14:54] Snow: put your windows box's computer name under server, and the windows box's sharename under share.... [14:55] kling0n, no [14:55] klingOn: returns /usr/include/unistd.h' [14:55] profanephobia: and do you have any catch-all configs ? [14:55] profanephobia: hmm [14:55] Pici, it returned a normal response [14:55] How/Where do I upgrade/get adobe flash 9r115? [14:55] what is the share name? [14:55] Snow: fill in the username from the windows box under "user name" [14:55] the name of the folder? [14:55] profanephobia: which is? [14:55] profanephobia: are you using a proxy ? [14:55] need help installing a camera [14:55] Snow: ye [14:55] kling0n, nope [14:55] Pici, i ping a non-existent address and it returned unknown host [14:55] hm [14:55] How stable is Xen in gutsy? [14:56] And how good is the Xen environment in Gutsy after all? [14:56] do i have to put in the share name? becouse there is a lott of folders shared on this computer, and i want to access them all at once, but they are on diffrent places on the windows box [14:56] profanephobia: try making a new profile for firefox (firefox -ProfileManager) and see it that profile has problems also [14:56] kling0n, but it also affects epiphany and konq [14:56] profanephobia: weird [14:56] i know [14:56] profanephobia: how about trying with another user? [14:56] profanephobia: same issue ? [14:56] klingOn: it just returns /usr/include/unistd.h' [14:57] kling0n, well im the only user on this box ill have to make anothe rto test [14:57] kitofhawaii frustrating huh? [14:57] nod profanephobia [14:57] profanephobia: and /etc/resolv.conf doesnt have anything weird? [14:57] Pici: good thinking [14:57] Pici, il check [14:57] normie: which one? :) [14:58] Snow: you have to put in the share name, yes. [14:58] * genii hands out a round of coffee [14:58] andres_: try running gcc --version on both machines [14:58] Pici, no just my dns servers === LotharTBL is now known as Lothar_Away [14:58] !away > Lothar_Away (Please see the private messsage from ubotu) [14:58] Snow: unfortunately that's a limitation. [14:58] andres_: perhaps your program wont compile with gcc4x so you could try gcc3x [14:58] kitofhawaii i know i don;t want to use windows [14:58] do i have to write it all, like "documents and settings/Dennis temp"? [14:58] ok [14:58] thanks [14:59] oiii [14:59] Snow: no...just the name it is shared as...on the windows box, get that share name (right click it, and click sharing, it'll give you the name) [14:59] tudo bem [14:59] what under folder then? [14:59] Snow: the one you want to connect to [15:00] eh? [15:00] the one i want to connect to? [15:00] the folder? the same as sharename?

[16:34] Mo9a7i, not much you can do. [16:34] if i were paying for support, I'd use LTS, otherwise, I see no point I just upgrade every 6mo [16:34] Mo9a7i: why did you use shift + del when you weren't absolutely sure what you were deleting? [16:34] in windows ,, that was ok ,, there are like hundreds of programs that does that recover files even after format ! [16:34] Mo9a7i, but you might want to turn off your computer immediately and start up under a live cd [16:35] tupson: with ln [16:35] tupson: and you will need sudo [16:35] IndyGunFreak: i was moving files through harddisks managing my files [16:35] In?

[16:35] Mo9a7i: no backup i presume [16:35] IndyGunFreak: yeah very well lol [16:35] Mo9a7i, well, with most linux distributions, the default file system is ext3, and under ext3, when you delete a file, the underlying data is cleared [16:36] it was in a partition that i brought with me from windows [16:36] kbrooks: how is it cleared? [16:36] so it was like fat32 or ntfs or something [16:36] I thought on a HDD when you deleted shit it just allowed that part of the HDD to be written over, [16:36] so its technicaly not deleted untill you write over it [16:36] mrpockets, hold on. let me look! [16:36] mrpockets: yes, and it's the same in linux [16:36] mrpockets: if thats the case, he has a chance to recover the file.

[16:38] What's a decent way to backup /home or your entire Ubuntu installation? [16:38] ikonia: thx, it's simpler than I thought :) [16:38] !backup [16:38] There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [16:38] verb3k: you can manually install it, as long as you keep track of it to remove it and use the official package later once it is fixed [16:39] kbrooks: it's Ntfs i'm sure [16:39] Mo9a7i: you can't recover ntfs from within linux [16:39] i have a big problem... whenever i run some programs with wine, it shows up in my tray. for example. i open utorrent and right now its downloading but i can never get the damn program to show its window. its basically hidden the whole time [16:39] ikonia, thanks [16:39] * soundray gets back to work on shift [16:39] ikonia: you heard of photorec ? [16:39] Mo9a7i, show me output or a screenshot. i want to be sure [16:39] ok kbrooks [16:39] i have a big problem... whenever i run some programs with wine, it shows up in my tray. for example. i open utorrent and right now its downloading but i can never get the damn program to show its window. its basically hidden the whole time [16:40] Wol: What did you mean by in In? === Guest793 is now known as skunkworks_ [16:40] * IndyGunFreak is amazed someone has important files that aren't backed up [16:40] Mo9a7i, there is possibly a solution, but for the solution to work, your ntfs has to not be encrypted [16:40] !samba [16:40] samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT [16:40] kbrooks: what do u need me to do so that you could be almost sure about that ? [16:41] Hi, can anyone help me with setting up 7.10 with a WEP key for a wireless network, Ubuntu seems to be rejecting the correct key! [16:41] Mo9a7i: you won't be able to recover anything on ntfs from within ubuntu [16:41] * IndyGunFreak thought he heard ikonia say something.. twice... lol [16:41] ikonia: why are u so sure ? if i may ask ! [16:41] ikonia, well, he cant do it from within windows [16:42] kbrooks: so if he can't do it from windows, and he can't do it from Ubuntu, then.... [16:42] Mo9a7i: because there isn't that level of interaction between the OS and file system [16:42] I'm having trouble connecting to my LG Chocolate phone. [16:42] so ,, you advice me that i reinstall windows to just recover these files ? [16:42] I plug it in and I can see it when I run lsusb, but BitPim doesn't recognize it and it doesn't show up as a device in My Computer. [16:42] firefox crashes out of the blue [16:42] Mo9a7i: those files are gone [16:42] ikonia, the problem is, ***if*** he somehow does ANYTHING he could overwrite the data [16:43] kbrooks: those files are gone [16:43] Mo9a7i: you use windows filesystems, you deal with the consequence [16:43] ikonia, (so you're right) [16:43] nothing at all to overwrite them [16:43] as people said:it wasn't backed up, so it wasn't important [16:43] Mo9a7i: your data is gone, so next time consider bnackups [16:43] backups [16:43] Mo9a7i: you carelessly deleted them, its nobody's fault but your own. [16:43] wols: thank you ! [16:43] wtf are floodbot1 and floodbot3 about? [16:43] Are there any way to get xorg7.3 in gutsy? It is a pain to get my dual head configuration to work in 7.2! [16:43] guyz ,, i'm sure even after formating the partition ,, in windows i can recover ,, 100% !!! [16:43] is update-rc.d the recommended app to use in order to disable boot-time services, etc? [16:43] PirateHead: I know they are not condoning the use of bad lanauge like WTF [16:43] unless i overrite them as brooks said [16:44] PirateHead: preventing channel floods/bot attacks/etc [16:44] Mo9a7i, don't be so sure. there are ways that can hinder recovery [16:44] Mo9a7i: you are wrong. and it's OT in #ubuntu [16:44] IndyGunFreak: you're not doing me any help :) [16:44] Pici: It seems more like they are flooding the channel themselves. [16:44] OT ???? [16:44] Mo9a7i: only stating the obvious.. i can't help you if you're not willing to help yourself [16:44] PirateHead: hence their names, its a bit of a catch 22 [16:44] PirateHead: helped by people making offtopic comments, surely. [16:44] Mo9a7i, like encryption, as i said [16:44] Indy : i already messed up with my self ! [16:44] PirateHead: Besides, why does there need to be 3 of them? [16:44] that's why i came for help [16:44] !ot [16:44] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [16:44] kbrooks: what good ie encyption to his situation ? [16:45] mmmmmmmm so it's gone :'( no hope :'( [16:45] LjL: It's not offtopic. It's directly releveant to the #ubuntu channel, which I am using currently. [16:45] hi all [16:45] Mo9a7i: well, we have no magic wand to wave over your PC to fix bad habit [16:45] ikonia, i was explaning the dillemma [16:45] kbrooks: what dillema ? [16:45] PirateHead: "#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel". were those Ubuntu support questions? no. please cease. [16:45] LoL Indy ,, i didn't do anything to you ,, why are u laughin at me ? [16:45] i just have the feeling that you're happy that you see someone in my situation [16:46] Mo9a7i: not laughing at you, i laugh at everyone who doesn't keep backups, then cries when they lose something... i've done it to numerous people right in their face. [16:46] LjL: #ubuntu is part of Ubuntu, and I had a question about #ubuntu, so I asked in the Ubuntu support channel [16:46] Mo9a7i: no-one is happy, people have just explained the situation to you [16:46] !attitude | Mo9a7i [16:46] Mo9a7i: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines [16:46] do i have to do the backup everyday ?? [16:46] i was just working on my project man ,, the last two days [16:46] Mo9a7i: thats up to you [16:46] PirateHead, no, #ubuntu is not part of Ubuntu by any means. the channel you're looking for is #ubuntu-ops [16:46] Is it possible to set a mount point for a partition through the device manager or throgh some other tool? Two of my partitions are currently "hidden" from regular view and only show up as existing in the device manager, and I've been told I need to mount them to view them. Any help appreciated [16:46] Mo9a7i: i backup probably 1-2x a week, and guarantee you, if it was something important, i'd back it up everytime i was done working on it. [16:46] Mo9a7i: Doing a backup every day is actually a good idea, especially for important projects. [16:47] Wols: Is there any information to show HOW TO make a link to an image and put it in the /boot/grub directory.... ? [16:47] ikonia, there is no good way to recover from within windows. anything could happen to overwrite the place. and as you say, there isn't the level of integration between linux and ntfs [16:47] ubotu i don't know if you're a bot or a real human ,, either way ,, i'm very thankful to this room ,, people here helped me alot previously [16:47] Mo9a7i: ubotu is a bot.... [16:47] kbrooks: so what has that go to do with encyption ? [16:47] What's a decent backup tool for Ubuntu [16:47] ikonia, encrypting a entire partition can hinder efforts to recover files. [16:47] !backup > SpookyET (SpookyET, see the private message from Ubotu) [16:48] SpookyET: rsync [16:48] kbrooks: what are you talking about ? [16:48] tupson: not sure if grub can deal with links [16:48] SpookyET: I use the dd command [16:48] how to upgrade ubuntu to gutsy IF it every package was already upgraded manually via adept (without using "upgrade to new version of distro" thing) ? [16:48] wols: it can't, [16:48] wols: your correct [16:48] Well... [16:48] What about ghost-style backups? [16:48] this TID is saying [16:48] hi everybody [16:48] ikonia: not even hardlinks? [16:48] i have a question [16:48] !ask | slimaq [16:48] slimaq: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) [16:48] (1) put the images in /boot/grub/splashimages [16:48] ok ,,, mmmm any suggestions for good backup programs ? (please don't tell me i have to do it manually) [16:48] wols: ahhh hardlinks I don't know, but I doubt it [16:48] ikonia, i'm not suggesting encryption. i'm rather saying to Mo9a7i that he's lucky that he hasn't encrypted his entire ntfs partition. [16:49] slimaq: i love the name [16:49] it runs that upgrade tool but im middle it says error: no new packages [16:49] kbrooks: encyption would make no difference [16:49] what is optimal hdd temperature? [16:49] (2) rename the image to splash.xpm.gz [16:49] kbrooks : that isn't good in my situation right ? [16:49] (3) make a link of that image and put it in the /boot/grub [16:49] !backup [16:49] There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [16:49] will photoshop run under wine? [16:49] and steps 2-3 are where i am stuck at [16:49] slimaq: That is more of a question for ##hardware [16:49] anyone here using zonbu? [16:49] !appdb | albech [16:49] albech: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org [16:49] Mo9a7i, right, but anyway, your files are gone. Forever. [16:49] albech: photoshop 7 and less would work ,, ! [16:50] * IndyGunFreak thinks kbrooks is an optimist at heart.. "forever"?..lol [16:50] kbrooks : thanx for helping and trying :) [16:50] Mo9a7i: You MIGHT be able to find them with something like sleuthkit, but you wont get support here with that. [16:50] So my question is, how can I make a link to an image in the /boot/grub/splashimages/ folder and put that link into the /boot/grub directory? [16:50] I'm having trouble connecting to my LG Chocolate phone. I plug it in and I can see it when I run lsusb, but BitPim doesn't recognize it and it doesn't show up as a device in My Computer. [16:50] Pici : thanx for the hint ;) [16:50] Mo9a7i: I concider myself a very good linux user and I had trouble getting it to recover stuff. [16:50] To create a new launcher with alacarte, what would be the code to open up a terminal and run an application in it? [16:50] Pici, i doubt that works on ntfs. [16:50] tupson: why don't you just put it in the correct place [16:50] Mo9a7i: its a good place to start. [16:50] kbrooks: it does. [16:50] tupson: why not just put the actual image there? [16:51] gnome-terminal & "ssh -X -p 8888 -L 5901:127.0.0.1:5900 dm2@192.168.1.100"? [16:51] DM|: gnome-terminal -e "ssh blah" [16:51] Pici ,, i can always try :) if i couldn't ,, let bygones be bygones [16:51] amaranth thanks [16:51] so in the menu.list file, i can just reference /boot/grub/splashimages ? [16:51] this HOWTO is making it seem like it has to pull from /boot/grub [16:51] hi [16:51] tupson: as long as boot is not a seperate partition, yes you can, however it is best to not create additional directory's in /boot/grub [16:52] can any body help me with my [16:52] kbrooks ,, can i show you something in private ? [16:52] ound problems [16:52] DM|: or just put in the ssh blah part and use the Application in Terminal type [16:52] *soud problems [16:52] I have an Asus F3Sc with Ubuntu 7.10, everything works fine, but no sound output, i can even record something using the microphone and play in other PC but the sound output doesn't work and the headphone too, can anyone help me pls? [16:52] !enter | zaki1 [16:52] a screen shot ,, or copy&paste from the terminal ? [16:52] zaki1: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! [16:52] DM|: then it'll use the DE's default terminal so if you change it later it'll honor that change [16:52] Amaranth ah forgot all about that [16:52] !sound | zaki1 [16:52] zaki1: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [16:52] hello. I am trying to connect my Bluetooth mouse using Gutsy and get the error ""obex://[00:07:61:67:17:71]" is not a valid location." ANy suggestions? [16:53] DaFFes: I have that problem with my Toshiba laptop. If I use an older kernel version (the one from Edgy), the sound works just fine. [16:53] DaFFes: so I use Gutsy with Edgy's kernel. [16:53] can _anyone_ help? [16:53] i'm running a toshiba as well [16:53] or is there some dedicated help channel? [16:53] Ikonia: ok, so by default ... when i did a sudo apt-get install splashimages it put the images in /boot/grub/splashimages [16:53] how do I install a new kernel? [16:53] so in my menu.list file, i can just enter splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splashimages/gunhole.xpm.gz [16:53] I'm really new to ubuntu and linux [16:53] * IndyGunFreak reads arekm's mind so he'll know his question. [16:53] arekm: What is your question? [16:53] Can anyone help me with connecting a Wireless network? Ubuntu seems to be refusing the correct WEP key! Is there any way of debugging the problem? [16:53] supaneko: no, remove the (hd0,0) if /boot is NOT a seperate partition [16:54] 17:48 < arekm> how to upgrade ubuntu to gutsy IF it every package was already upgraded manually via adept (without using "upgrade to new version of distro" thing) ? [16:54] 17:49 < arekm> it runs that upgrade tool but im middle it says error: no new packages [16:54] PirateHead, IndyGunFrek: here is it [16:54] tupson: no, remove the (hd0,0) if /boot is NOT a seperate [16:54] partition [16:54] arekm: lol, have fun. [16:54] arekm: You might want to ask in #kubuntu, since Adept isn't part of Ubuntu main. [16:54] ok [16:54] let me try this [16:54] PirateHead how do i do this, sorry... [16:55] WARlrus refusing? are you getting an error message? [16:55] i have tried the trouble shooting for sound but it did not work also tried reinstalling alsa ....mine is intel hda card intell 945 motherboard [16:55] DaFFes: Are you on a fresh install or have you been using Ubuntu for awhile? [16:55] i've used for a while in my pc [16:55] RatThing: No, I put in the key (which I know is correct) but then nothing happens, and after a while it just re-asks for the key [16:55] not on notebook [16:55] !intelhda | zaki1 [16:55] zaki1: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto [16:55] but im realtively new on it [16:56] like 6 months [16:56] DaFFes: Is this problem on the PC or the notebook? I'm considering asking you to reinstall -- would that be unreasonable? [16:56] notebook [16:56] Lol...if at first you fail...reinstall reinstall reinstall [16:56] but how can i install one system with others kernel [16:56] WARlrus if your SSID of the wireless hub or router is hidden that could stop you from making a connection. [16:56] DaFFes: why do you want to do that [16:56] No, its not hidden [16:57] ikonia: I have an Asus F3Sc with Ubuntu 7.10, everything works fine, but no sound output, i can even record something using the microphone and play in other PC but the sound output doesn't work and the headphone too, can anyone help me pls? [16:57] does anyone know of a good webmail, calendar system? [16:57] i need help!! [16:57] its a BTHomeHub, and is set up to transmit [16:57] zaki1: if you put this in a terminal, what does it output... cat /proc/asound/card0/codec#* | grep Codec [16:57] DaFFes: You can install an old kernel in-place, but it's difficult. The option that's less error-prone is reinstalling Feisty Fawn and running an upgrade to Gusty. [16:57] manual : what's your problem ? [16:57] DaFFes: That way the old kernel will still be in place. [16:57] DaFFes: that doesn't expain why you want to install a different kernel [16:57] manuel_ : sorry [16:57] i need disable the drag&drop in gnome [16:57] ikonia its PirateHead solution's [16:57] PirateHead: the old kernel is remove [16:57] removed === iarwain1|away is now known as iarwain1 [16:57] how can i convert a windows program to work on ubuntu, i have the c source [16:57] ikonia: There are sound regressions in Gutsy's kernel, so a number of people are using old kernels to get around it. [16:57] PirateHead feisty is 7.04 right? [16:58] WARlrus what is your wireless device? PCMCIA? built in? Dongle? [16:58] PirateHead: thanks. [16:58] ikonia: The old kernel is not removed. I an attest to that. [16:58] darkangel_ use wine [16:58] USB Dongle [16:58] arekm: Hope things work out. [16:58] darkangel_: Tahts a bit beyond the scope of this channel, you may want to try asking in ##C [16:58] PirateHead: fair enough, I recommend against that, but thats your call [16:58] ikonia do you have a better solution? [16:58] WARlrus if you type: lsusb do you see the dongle listed? [16:58] DaFFes: as I don't know the problem, no [16:58] yes [16:58] PirateHead thx [16:58] ikonia: Using an older kernel may not be an optimal solution, but when the new kernel *doesn't work*, there is no other option. (Unless you're a kernel hacker.) [16:59] indygunfreak it gives conexant cx20549 venice [16:59] PirateHead: with "doesn't work" ? [16:59] ikonia the problem is what i said, if i can give you any information to help you to make a solution i would thx [16:59] DaFFes: Try the Feisty LiveCD and verify that the sound works before doing the reinstall though. [16:59] hi! is there a hdd tester for ubuntu? I would like to buy a new notebook hdd and i would like to test it before i buy. but how can i test? [16:59] DaFFes: I've not seen what you've said with regard the problem [16:59] WARlrus does your dongle show up in the network configuration? [16:59] naxa: how can you test a product before you buy it ? [16:59] ikonia my output sound doesn't work [16:59] DaFFes: so you don't have sound ? [16:59] in my Asus f3s [17:00] ikonia: i bus it from a friend [17:00] ikonia: Sound doesn't work under the new kernel for a number of Asus and Toshiba laptops. The bug has been bouncing around the bugtracker for months but nobody on the kernel team has been paying attentoin. It' still marked as new. [17:00] just the output [17:00] "Bus 001 Device 004: ID 050d:7050 Belkin Components F5D7050 ver 1000 WiFi" [17:00] the input works [17:00] PirateHead: what sound card is it effecting [17:00] naxa: Hard drives are almost always going to work so long as the controller that accesses them is seen and set up by linux [17:00] The dongle itself is working, because it can pick up the network [17:00] its just when trying to connect, something's going wrong [17:00] genii: ok... [17:00] ikonia: I believe it's mostly, if not only, laptops with integrated sound (ie no sound card). [17:00] PirateHead: but what chipset [17:01] PriceChild: onboard/not onboard, doesn't matter, the model / chipset does [17:01] yes me too having problem with intel hda [17:01] PriceChild: sorry, that was for PirateHead [17:01] PirateHead: onboard/not onboard, doesn't matter, the model / chipset does [17:01] ikonia: I don't know. I said in the bug tracker that I would be willing to give any amount of diagnostic data needed, but nobody has asked for anything. [17:01] zaki1: what kind fo pc? [17:01] WARlrus if you type: ifconfig do you see a wlan listed? [17:01] compaq laptop [17:01] Hi, anyone know how can I get a folder in a my truecrypt mount to be writeable for normal users? [17:01] PirateHead surly logging the soundcard chipset is basic information when logging a bug ? [17:01] is there an itunes for ubuntu? [17:01] Yep, wlan0 is listed [17:02] darkangel_ nope === lakin_ is now known as lakin [17:02] ikonia: I don't know the chipsets I've got in my computer.

Two of my partitions are currently "hidden" from regular view and only show up as existing in the device manager. Any ideas? [17:03] Neophos: just mount them [17:04] well thank you guys for discussing my problem [17:04] manuel_ : why do you want to do that ,, I'm searching for a solution ATM [17:04] bye [17:04] PirateHead: http://blog.pcnews.ro/2007/05/23/asus-f3sc-review-santa-rosa/ shows that audio as soundblaster pro compatible... Intel High Def [17:04] hello.... ubuntustudio [17:04] Can anyone else help me with connecting to a wireless network using a WEP key? [17:04] !wep [17:04] WEP is totally insecure, don't use it, the full Wireless Documentation for Ubuntu can be found at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs === _neversfelde is now known as neversfelde [17:04] is there a linux program i can use to copy music to my iPod touch [17:04] ikonia - That's kinda the problem, I don't know how. The usual guy told me to mount them by going into Computer, then right-click, mount, but since they don't show up under Computer, well, it makes that kinda impossible [17:04] I've read through all those ;) Ubuntu seems to reject the key wehn i enter it [17:04] !webcam [17:04] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [17:04] zaki1: http://boardreader.com/t/Multimedia_Video_328058/No_sound_in_Gutsy_Conexant_HDA_intel_CX2_608664.html [17:04] it just pops back up asking for it again [17:04] doesn't look good.

[17:05] hello.. it's possible to evaluate a website's size before downloading the content via wget? [17:05] PirateHead: I've seen it working [17:05] kn4rF: How would you know how big the website is without, you know, downloading it and checking? [17:05] PirateHead: NOOOOOOO!!1 cause im getting one for christmas [17:05] darkangel_: I'm aware of people who have it working [17:05] ikonia: Cool. In that case, you can probably use gPodder or something, darkangel_ . [17:06] darkangel_: it won't work then.., its something bout file encryption APple done to the Ipod. [17:06] IndyGunFreak it is workable [17:06] PirateHead: ok ill google it [17:06] PirateHead, technically i don't need to download a file to check its size [17:06] darkangel_: no [17:06] IndyGunFreak: the guy sat next to me today had a touch syncing [17:06] IndyGunFreak: i herd that only affected the "classic" ipods [17:06] darkangel_: That's what I've heard too. You can access the filesystem but there's encryption that hasn't been broken yet. [17:07] ikonia: on linux? [17:07] IndyGunFreak: yup [17:07] I have a wireless mouse that works good in windows but kind of sluggish in ubunt? Why can this be? [17:07] darkangel_: ikonia seems to have seen an advance, though. [17:07] oh thats right.. my bad, it is the classics, sorry [17:07] PirateHead, isn't it? [17:07] darkangel_: you're right, its the classics. [17:07] kn4rF: I don't know any way to verify the size of a file to which you do not have access. [17:07] darkangel_: if thats the case, you should be able to get it to work pretty easily with any number of tools.; [17:07] anyone have a clue why I would have to use "dbus-launch banshee" for it to run properly and not give me an error ? [17:08] IndyGunFreak: as long as i can jailbreak it and copy music to it im good [17:08] askand: Make and model... Microsoft by chance? [17:08] darkangel_: i really don't know to be truthful. [17:08] * differentreality \Is CRC failure of a rar part fixable ?? [17:08] please, anyone could help me with UUID and fstab? [17:08] darkangel_: Be careful with your jailbreaks. Apple likes to brick jailbroken iPods. [17:08] differentreality: not really [17:08] is it possible to have beagle and tracker in at the same tinme [17:08] subverso: what is your question [17:08] :( [17:08] darkangel_: for the most part, IPODs are usually easy under Linux. [17:08] i've setup several [17:08] differentreality: not usually [17:08] hello ikonia [17:08] IndyGunFreak: took the guy next to me 30 seconds to set his up [17:08] subverso: hi [17:09] that tooo bad :((( [17:09] ikonia: ya, its the IPOD Touch Classic I was thinking of.. [17:09] i have ubuntustudio and suse 10.3 [17:09] when i had installed de suse my fstab broke [17:09] Dbus = daemon bus? [17:09] Does anyone have compiz fusion working on a dual monitor setup? [17:09] ikonia: they done something to the file system is my understanding, so that it will only work w/ Itunes. [17:10] I'm having trouble connecting to my LG Chocolate phone. I plug it in and I can see it when I run lsusb, but BitPim doesn't recognize it and it doesn't show up as a device in My Computer. [17:10] ikonia, it doesnt mount my home [17:10] IndyGunFreak: I'm sure there have been tricks [17:10] subverso: ubuntustudio support is in #ubuntustudio [17:10] fitztrev, i do with nvidia [17:10] ikonia, but i have checked the UUID its ok [17:10] Jack_Sparrow: nope...targus o_o [17:10] none as of yet, i searched exhaustively.... some tried running itunes in wine/crossover, w/o success.... XP in vmware seems to be the *easiest* way.... [17:10] DM|, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dbus [17:11] phyz: I have nvidia, too. did it work out of the box for you? [17:11] XiXaQ looking at that now actually : ) [17:11] ikonia, but studio and ubuntu is the same, its not? [17:11] askand: It just helps to identify your hardware when asking those kind of questions [17:11] subverso: not totally, subverso it's support in the #ubuntustudio channel [17:11] fitztrev, with the restricted drivers and a little nvidia-settings tuning yeah [17:11] ok [17:11] hi there [17:11] Hello, I will have a load of thin clients, that make their connections using the ICA protocol. What do I need to configure in Ubuntu to accept these connections? [17:11] ikonia, yhanks [17:11] Twinkletoes connections to what ? [17:11] could someone help me to install simDock? [17:11] phyz: mind sharing the tweaks you made to get it to work? [17:11] hello [17:12] fitztrev, what's not working? [17:12] who is the german Chat? [17:12] i am having problems with libwkn18 [17:12] T5ws: #ubuntu-de [17:12] ikonia: The thin-clients will connect to virtualised Xubuntu desktops running in VMware [17:12] "/join" === francesco_ is now known as doogers [17:12] Jack_Sparrow: Yea..its a targus mouse [17:12] whats better wine or crosover? [17:12] German Ubuntu chat? [17:12] who is the german chat? [17:12] ikonia: The thin-clients will use either ICA or RDP protocols, but ICA is better apparently [17:12] server nana.irc.gr [17:12] "/join" [17:13] Twinkletoes: I missunderstood what you where asking, you'll just need firewall ports [17:13] darkangel_, if I remember correctly, crossover is a fork of wine that specializes in office applications. [17:13] <[AE][HDF]sudd1> pls klick! ---> http://www.pennergame.de/ref.php?refid=8915041 [17:13] is this the german ubuntu chat? "nana.irc.gr? [17:13] ikonia: IS that it, it will accept these connections by default? [17:13] !de | T5ws [17:13] T5ws: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de [17:13] thank you [17:13] Twinkletoes well no, you'll have to enable desktop sharing, authentication etc etc etc [17:13] XiXaQ: oh ok well ill download a trial and see if it will run itunes [17:14] ikonia: Ah, that's where I need pointing in the right direction - is there an article somehwere, as you seem to know what I might need to do? [17:14] phyz: when i try to enable visual effects (admin>appearances) it says they can't be enabled [17:14] !ltsp [17:14] LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project [17:14] this works!!! [17:14] Twinkletoes: I don't know of an actual article, however I suspect that https://help.ubuntu.com will have some docs [17:14] thank you [17:14] fitztrev, are you using the restricted driver? [17:14] ikonia: Ok, thank you :) [17:14] Pici: Thanks too :) [17:14] Twinkletoes: catch the link of pici, maynot be exactly what you want but very close [17:15] phyz: yes. the nividia accelerate graphics drive is enabled and in use [17:15] Twinkletoes: sure, its kind of close /me shrugs [17:15] fitztrev, hm, i thought that's what did it for me. i might have tried to apt-get compiz again though. [17:18] Hi - I'm trying to set up a new Dell laptop's winmodem. I've got the driver installed and recognized, but the Network Manager option to connect the dial-up connection apparently does nothing, anyone able to help? [17:18] Ok, after adding the splashimage line, the image comes on for about a tenth of a second and i still sit through a black screen until the login page comes up... help! [17:18] fitztrev, http://www.howtoforge.com/compiz-fusion-ubuntu-gutsy-gibbon-nvidia-geforce-fx-5200 seems like that's what i did. maybe try installing compiz again? [17:18] Pici: Can I just check... if I'm only using LTSP to connect a thin-client to a Linux desktop machine running on VMware, I would only need the Display Manager, not the entire LTSP suite? [17:19] tupson: still having framebuffer issues [17:19] Twinkletoes: I really dont know anything about ltsp itself, sorry :( [17:19] Ikonia: so what do i do now? [17:19] Pici: Ok, I'll try it - thanks :) [17:19] fitztrev, without emerald [17:19] Twinkletoes: I think the remote desktop will only allow 3 connections at once [17:19] Twinkletoes: you may be better using something like ltsp [17:20] ikonia: It might even be easier to use RDP - I'll try them both - thank you :) [17:20] darkangel_, if I remember correctly, crossover is a fork of wine that specializes in office applications. [17:20] Twinkletoes: rdp will still only allow 3 connections I think [17:20] Twinkletoes: as thats still the desktop sharing service on the desktop [17:20] ikonia: I only want one connection - it's just to link a thin-client to it's virtualised machine [17:20] darkblueB|off: crossover is also commercial [17:20] Twinkletoes: ahh earlier you said it was many [17:21] Hi. I'm trying to print a pdf document that has a Hindi font I just installed. The pdf looks ok on the screen (evince), but prints with a weird font. [17:21] ikonia: Each virtualised thin-client will onyl ever receive one connection [17:21] ikonia: Oops.... [17:21] ikonia, rdp is a protocol. There are many different rdp servers, and not all have limitations like that. [17:21] i just upgraded from 6 -> 7.04 -> 7.10 and when i log into gnome metacity is not starting... does anyone have a suggestion? [17:21] ikonia: Each virtualised Linux machine will only receive one connection from a thin-client [17:21] XiXaQ: I know this, thats why I suggested he USE one without the limitations [17:21] hello [17:22] Twinkletoes: so each machine will only ever get one connection, full stop [17:22] Twinkletoes, you might want to have a look at nomachine.com if you're looking for something similar to rdp for linux. Or xrdp. [17:22] ikonia: Yup :) [17:22] do you know a list of ubuntu boot options? [17:22] Halvor: which option do you want, there are MANY [17:22] XiXaQ: If xrdp is built-in or available in the repos, I'll go for that - it needs to be as simple as poss. [17:23] does anyone know why metacity would not start when i log in? [17:23] mostly about screen settings [17:23] twingod, no, xrdp is abit complicated to setup and it's not nearly as efficient as nx. Nomachine NX Free Edition is easily setup and configured, and it's _really_ fast. [17:23] is there a command I can enter to get the memory usage of an application from its PID? [17:23] it goes blank after switching to graphical mode [17:23] mrmonday: top [17:23] mrmonday: ps aux [17:23] Halvor: pci=noapci acpi=off noapic nolapic or all_generic_ide are a gew [17:24] XiXaQ: Ok - thanks, I@ll look at that too [17:24] twingod, I'd have that as my first choice. [17:24] is there a "bash way" to select a substring excluding the first char? [17:24] cut -c1 select just the first one [17:24] but i need the opposite way [17:25] doktoreas: http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/string-manipulation.html [17:25] doktoreas: this isnt the place to ask about bash programming [17:25] doktoreas, cut has an option to do that [17:25] Does anyone know how to get dial-up (modem) connections working (driver is installed)? [17:25] ChrisAshton84: Is this a serial modem or usb etc? [17:25] thx guys..and sorry Jack_Sparrow [17:25] Jack_Sparrow: thank you, i'll try it immediately [17:26] np [17:26] Hello. How can I connect vncserver to a listening vncviewer instance?

[17:27] ssh access and ubuntu... I know for a fact that f I turn on ssh access at my house, I get a constant stream of low-level attacks. I have a new server.. I am not a ninja with Linux, but can do technical things.. What about settng up an alternative port for SSH? error prone? opinions? [17:28] yes [17:28] tupson seems worth trying [17:28] darkblueB|off: you can do, but pointless [17:28] darkblueB|off: just make sure your machine is secure [17:28] darkblueB|off: consider using ssh key logins only [17:28] dave81: and... what did it say about your hardware? [17:28] ikonia: dont the basic attack script go after the ssh port ? [17:29] hello. I create 5 workspace on my gutsy, and now I want to assign a keyboard shortcurt for all of them, but on the shortcut menu, there is only two workspace ("switch to workspace 1" and "switch to workspace 2"). Where are the "which to workspace [3,4,5]"? [17:29] darkblueB|off: some of them do, others scan [17:29] it said it could be installeed with easy cam but i cat get easy cam to install [17:29] ikonia: aha, so you suggest I set up the passkey style login? [17:29] dave81: I dont have a cam so I have not experience to share. [17:29] darkblueB|off: that way no pass key, no connection, no attatcks [17:29] thats cool thank you for your time [17:30] ikonia, they list all processes, how can I find it for just one? [17:30] think i will just buy a new one [17:30] mrmonday: I think the "p" key will allow you to input a process or is it "/" [17:30] i want to format my usb-stick, but i don't know how to do that. I know that the stick uses a vfat filesystem [17:30] ikonia: I dd that once.. it was tricky... I understand what you are saying though [17:30] ChrisAshton84: I did not see your answer...

[17:50] jay, dd [17:50] mr_daniel: You also may want to check there is no /dev/sdb2 in your case. Might be it has 2 partitions [17:50] SpookyET: you could add the definition for the connection in /etc/network/interfaces manually i think, otherwise you would have to use nm-applet i think [17:50] jay: brasero is decent [17:50] ikonia, thunar tells me i've only got a few mb left, before i rebootet that was over 2gb [17:50] genii: I think you have hit the nail there [17:50] jay: sudo apt-get install brasero [17:50] turbotorben: check your space [17:50] ikonia, i did using the disc usage analyzer [17:50] turbotorben: show me the output of "df -h" in a pastebin please.

[17:53] How in the hell can there be 24C (76F) degrees outside in the middle of december? [17:53] the crashes are random [17:53] turbotorben: disc usage is wrong then [17:54] ikonia, there's something wrong, i'm so sure [17:54] everything freezes except the mouse and i have to cntrl+alt+backspace [17:54] turbotorben: disk analyser is wrong [17:54] ikonia, i don't know where those 2gb should come from suddenly [17:55] turbotorben: go into / and do "du -h" and follow the biggest files [17:55] is there any explaination for these crashes [17:55] MONODA: thats not enough information to be able to even start debugging it [17:56] here is the df -h output http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/20084/ and here the fdisk -l /dev/sdb output http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/20085/ [17:56] ikonia, when i do du -ch, the last line is 1.8G total [17:57] Hey ho. Got some Grub Problems. I just installed Fedora and used "SuperGrubDisk" to restore my old Ubuntu Grub bootloader. How can I make it to switch between both OS. [17:57] Jack_Sparrow (or whoever): It's a winmodem, conextant, we got the drivers installed, it creates /dev/modem -> /dev/ttySHSF0. lsmod shows all the modules loaded; dmesg has a couple of messages about them. [17:57] turbotorben I didn't say -ch [17:57] Network Monitor does nothing when we click to connect via ppp (it's set up correctly) and gnome-ppp does not detect a modem in the setup window. [17:57] ikonia, yeah, but it lists 1,8gb total, while dh says 4,5gb used [17:58] ikonia, 1,8gb would be fine [17:58] turbotorben: please put the output of du -h / in a pastebin please. [17:59] anybody know any good bittorrent client for gnome? [17:59] azureus takes too much resources [17:59] i just wanted to share this with everyone. "error creating new document. error "too many open files" creating new document" [17:59] there is one installed... [17:59] has anyone had that error before? [18:00] n215: deluge or transmission personally i use utorrent+wine ktorrent is ok too [18:00] n215, deluge. =) [18:00] how can i extarct a tar.bz2 file? [18:00] ok ima try deluge [18:00] hi [18:00] goldbond, double click it [18:00] goldbond: tar jxvf [18:00] goldbond: tar xfvj filename [18:00] thanks [18:00] goldbond, or tar -xzf /path/to/file.tar.bz2 [18:01] ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47842/ [18:01] i liked PriceChild's first answer :) [18:01] <_mike3_> what's upp pepos [18:01] goldbond, right click > extract, also works === _mike3_ is now known as mike3 [18:01] i need help configuring kismet. what do i put in the source=x,x,x ?? [18:01] thanks [18:01] i was suprised that fileroller works with rar parts now [18:01] does ubuntu have the same repos as debian have? [18:02] turbotorben: please do "du -hx /" and post say the last 10 lines [18:02] mindshift, no, ubuntu uses the ubuntu repos [18:02] pathotron: what card? do a locate README | grep -i kismet or something there is a readme that lists sources [18:02] pathotron: maybe lowercase [18:02] mindshift, things merge back and forth though [18:03] the card is a rlt8187b. i have made sure that it can be put into monitor mode [18:03] The holidays need to start.. Man.... [18:03] mike3: dont you watch tv the holidays started in october this year [18:04] how do I get a iso that will install the testing version? [18:04] I don't want the outdated stable [18:04] mindshift: you don't [18:04] pathotron: not sure of that one id check the readme sorry i dont have kis in this computer so not sure of path [18:04] mindshift: if you don't know how to install it, you shouldn't be using it [18:04] ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47843/ [18:04] lunux rulez:) [18:04] im not a noob [18:04] I know what I want [18:04] mindshift: then go get it [18:04] you're a n00b. Geez n--b! [18:04] Is there any way to make Ubuntu automatically set volume.ignore to false on all partitions? [18:04] IK [18:04] mindshift: your question indicates that you are [18:04] noob and what [18:04] I can't find it [18:05] n00b what! [18:05] hi there. I'm using 7.10 and want to configure my wifi with wpa-psk directly over the /etc/network/interfaces (not gui). my problem is, that the "pre-up iwpriv wlan0 set ..."-parts in the config don't work, because iwpriv seems not to know the "set"-option. any ideas? [18:05] does anyone know how I can split the terminal horizontally? [18:05] mindshift: there is information in the topic in #ubuntu+1 [18:05] tomd123: with screen [18:05] !screen | tomd123 [18:05] tomd123: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen [18:05] I feel like uhhhh goin home === rpereira_ is now known as rpereira [18:06] turbotorben: humour me, go into /home and du du -h [18:07] ikonia, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47844/ [18:08] turbotorben: something is very wrong there then === schlort_ is now known as schlort [18:08] turbotorben: I see what you mean [18:09] hello all... [18:09] i have an interesting problem [18:09] anybody willing to listen [18:09] ? [18:09] hi any solution on how to bring back the sound on my intel hda card on my compaq laptop tried alsa trouble shoot [18:09] im here [18:10] ok heres the thing [18:10] if it is interesting... i could listen to. [18:10] we have no choice, simplyubuntu.. Please just explain it, and try to keep it on as few lines as possible. [18:10] ikonia, yeah :/ i'm using the hardy repositorys, could that be a big bug? [18:10] zaki1 uninstall and reinstall alsa [18:10] hmm wait [18:10] turbotorben why didn't you say you where using hardy ! [18:10] for some reason, my nokia n72 doesnt connect to my gutsy desktop, hence i have no way to transfer any files onto [18:10] it [18:10] turbotorben: hardy is not supporte [18:10] d [18:10] I can't find it, whata heck I'll just get the outdated stable iso [18:11] therefore, i need to find a roundabout way to do this. [18:11] simplyubuntu can you ping it? [18:11] can you telnet ssh of ftp to it? [18:11] tried emailing the file to myself, but cant download it [18:11] that doesnt make sense [18:11] how can i telnet my phone? [18:11] you have a networking issue [18:11] probably [18:11] ? [18:11] sudobash: does your phone run a telnet daemon? [18:11] simplyubuntu: ^^ [18:12] uh wols how do i figure that out? [18:12] ikonia, oh sorry, i didn't know that. what should i do now? [18:12] how would I know. it's not my phone [18:12] turbotorben: join #ubuntu+1 [18:12] turbotorben: why are you using hardy ? [18:12] oh yeah he's talking about a phone [18:12] and the thing is that whenever i plug in the usb cable, the phone doesnt go into usb mmode and the comp doesnt recognize it [18:12] but you can only telnet to it when it runs a telnet server. and trust me, the chances for this is very low indeed [18:12] im multiptasking [18:12] Do exist a Parental Control ( like in Leopard) for Ubuntu? [18:13] wols we are talking about a phone right? [18:13] Ok, has anyone else had any problems in gutsy where your wireless network just suddenly stops working, and you can't reboot or do anything at all? I have to hard power the machine down then bring it back up. When the network dies, I can't run iwconfig from a command line window or anything... it just hangs. [18:13] is ubuntu 7.10 the testing cd? [18:13] simplyubuntu: I guess [18:13] mindshift no, thats stable [18:13] 8.04 is testing [18:13] mindshift: no. it's the current ubuntu release [18:13] mindshift: the fact that you don't even know the versions suggest you shouldn't be using an unstable distro [18:13] Hello! What type do I have to mount a cdrom as? Which switches do I need to add to my mount command? [18:13] wols so how can i ping my phone? [18:13] ikonia, i'm using a macbook pro and i'm waiting for more support of that hardware, like the new kernel [18:13] simplyubuntu: does your phone have an IP? [18:13] turbotorben get stuck in in #ubuntu+1 [18:14] adamonline45: iso9660 or udf [18:14] sudobash no use [18:14] ikonia, alright thanks [18:14] Is there any way to make Ubuntu automatically set volume.ignore to false on all partitions? [18:14] wols how am i supposed to figure that out? if youre asking if i can browse the internet then yes [18:14] hey i have a question for you awesome ubuntuers... maybe someone can help me considering i've googled until i'm blue in the face [18:14] it's not unstable [18:14] simplyubuntu: no I am not. I am asking what IP it has if you want to ping it and if it does which one [18:14] mindshift hardy is [18:14] i can't change my cursor theme or cursor size no matter what i do [18:15] make sure you have the correct device selected in the alsa frontend [18:15] nullpuppy: there isn't really a ubuntu testing or unstable [18:15] either in xfce 4 mouse settings or gcursor.. with default themes or installed themes [18:15] then what is it? [18:15] anyone know why? [18:15] mindshift: "unstable" [18:15] mindshift: "development" [18:15] mindshift: "not for general use" [18:15] it happens in all 4 of my *buntu installs [18:15] mindshift: pick one, but either way you shouldn't be using it [18:16] wols: It says "wrong fs type, bad option, etc...". I'm doing "sudo mount -t udf /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom". Any advice? [18:16] what's the accelerated desktop channel? [18:16] but I don't want 3 year old programs [18:16] mindshift: you don't have them in gutsy [18:16] sudo bash where to check [18:16] ? [18:16] adamonline45: is it a CD or DVD? [18:16] gusty [18:16] #compiz-fusion [18:16] wols how should i check for an ip? [18:16] you might need to install the alsa frontend [18:16] wols: It's a CD. It has rEFIt on it... [18:16] Luke: ^ [18:16] is09660 then not udf [18:17] 7.10 is gutsy? [18:17] pike_: there's a ubuntu specific one i'm looking for iirc [18:17] err. anyone know about my cursor problem? [18:17] go to one of those whats my ip sites on my phone" [18:17] <__sc> say i have written a shell script called 'hello_world' and have it saved at the location ~/bin. how can i call the command 'hello_world' without typing '~/bin/hello_world'? [18:17] wols: The drive is a combo drive though, if that matters... [18:17] simplyubuntu: I don't know. unless the phone runs ubuntu. and if it doesn't it's OT here to ask [18:17] *iso9660 [18:17] the debian naming system is terrible [18:17] Luke: it forward to that one now it was ubuntu-effects [18:17] adamonline45: then use iso9660 [18:17] __sc: alter your PATH [18:17] ikonia: ssh, y I screwed it up [18:17] mindshift: your not using debian [18:17] pike_: oh thanks [18:17] darkblueB|off: pardon ? [18:17] ikonia: we spoke about creating the passphrase [18:17] genii: wols: I get the same error... I booted off the dang disk, I wonder why it can't mount just with the right-click mount option... [18:18] darkblueB|off: yes, I recall [18:18] anyone know of a way to manually restrict or force a cursor size? [18:18] it't just debian with in a preconfigured package [18:18] <__sc> ikonia: can you give me an example? where do i alter the PATH? [18:18] mindshift: your not using debian [18:18] I have a huge problem: I cant boot into any live CDs anymore. It worked fine before, but now it doesnt. I tried resetting the motherboard, unplugging anything except the monitor+keyboard+dvddrive - still nothing. I tried Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Mint. None of those work anymore. :/ [18:18] __sc: PATH=$PATH:~/bin [18:18] __sc: then do "hello_world" and it should work [18:18] ikonia: I have some passphrase generated on my local machine.. so .ssh exists.. I used Remote Desktop and dd the keygen on the new server [18:18] darkblueB|off: ok [18:18] johannes__: when you say "can't boot".. are you getting a menu? [18:18] adamonline45: You are trying to mount the disk you booted from? [18:19] nobody knows anything about cursors? =( [18:19] johannes__: check the boot sequence of your bios [18:19] destroyer: calm down, and stop asking every 30 seconds, someone will get to you [18:19] ikonia: which is in another city.. I briefly enabled ssh on the router.. confirmed I could ssh in, then changed the ssh config to disable authenitcated login [18:19] i'll keep asking until i'm answered, thanks [18:19] johannes__: also it doesnt matter if you take a live cd, an install cd, a windows cd or whatever [18:19] Yes. The menu comes up, but for some reason all CDs hang when trying to launch the desktop. I tried all kinds of F6-commands, but still nothing. [18:19] johannes__: in addition, unplugging anything will not help. [18:19] destroyer: please stop asking every 30 seconds, the audience is limited [18:19] genii: Well, it's only a bootloader disk. I booted into ubuntu using it, and I should be able to mount it in order to install said bootloader to the hard drive, according to the install instructions... [18:19] !patience >destroyer [18:20] well i'm not finished explaining the details [18:20] johannes__: well if the menu comes up you are able to boot live cd's. [18:20] there's a scroll bar for a reason.. [18:20] johannes__: if the menu comes up, then your PC is booting properly, i strongly suggest this is a burn issue... What program are you using to burn the ISOs, how fast are you burning them, and to what type of media. [18:20] destroyer: there are channel guidelines for a reason too [18:20] ikonia: so, I can get to the remote machine through Remote Desktop as before.. but the keygen and public key part .. well I ddnt get that exactly straight [18:20] It usually ends with my monitors resolution being changed more often than 5 times in 90 seconds. [18:20] darkblueB|off: ahhh so you've locked yourself out [18:20] IndyGunFreak: i'm absolutely sure it is not a burn issue if he is able to boot from the cd. [18:20] ikonia: no not really , cuase I have remote dsktop [18:21] darkblueB|off: thats good then [18:21] Erm. The thing is though that I installed Ubuntu perfectly from one of those CDs a week ago. [18:21] arjeboff: and i'm absolutely sure that it still could be a burn issue. [18:21] ikonia: but f I was relying on ssh then yes :-) [18:21] IndyGunFreak: what kind of? [18:21] arjeboff: burnspeed, believe it or not. [18:21] darkblueB|off: lucky you left remote desktop open [18:21] I also tested the CD and it says its okay. [18:21] does ubuntu have the same ammount of packages as debian has? [18:21] IndyGunFreak: hmm. [18:21] ikonia: I kinda knew this might happen [18:21] mindshift: not exactly [18:21] darkblueB|off: wise [18:21] arjeboff, you can still have issues [18:21] IndyGunFreak: wouldn't at least it say something like i/o error or so then? [18:21] johannes__: try burning the CD at a slower rate(even if the md5sum checks out)., burn it around 4x [18:21] arjeboff: no.... [18:21] wols got it [18:22] IndyGunFreak: i mean i've never seen something like that in my whole life [18:22] IndyGunFreak: ok [18:22] now what do i do? [18:22] ikonia: hmm, how many more/less? [18:22] IndyGunFreak: sounds strange to me somehow .) [18:22] mindshift: I don't know [18:22] anyways... my xserver is 2699x1968 and the cursor sets proportionally, so it's extremely large for my screens [18:22] where can i get free real player to play rm files [18:22] mindshift: they are comperable [18:22] wols found the ip... [18:22] arjeboff: i've saw it several times.. i don't know how long you've been in this room, but hang around a while, you'll see a lot of peoples problems with booting live CD's, are solved by burning them slower, adn honestly, i don't know why. [18:22] ikonia: so doing the keygen on my local desktop, WITHOUT blowing away my existing keys, ADDING that to my local keys, and getting the RIGHT key to the host (which had none before).. thats the task [18:22] genii: Well, I think I'll re-burn the disk image... Which filetype is preferred for Ubuntu: .dmg or .cdr? [18:23] darkblueB|off: go slow and think as you go, you'll be fine [18:23] ArabEyes: I believe the w32codecs package that is is medibuntu can allow the playback of real files. [18:23] !medibuntu | ArabEyes [18:23] ArabEyes: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [18:23] simplyubuntu: which is? [18:23] ikonia: I apprecate talking to some about it.. back later perhaps.. thanks [18:23] IndyGunFreak: ok sorry then. never seen something like that. uhm, and i'm new in here, first time i'm here.... [18:23] darkblueB|off: no problem [18:23] simplyubuntu: but I doubt you want to use it, since then your data transfer would go over the internet and your carrier's network, costing you $$ [18:23] 221.132.117.19 [18:23] The CDs are fine. I used two different devices and three different brands, all done at 8x. One burned with Nero, the two others with Gnomebaker. There is no physical damage or bad burning possible. [18:24] but files only 400 kb [18:24] I dont know what I could try. :/ [18:24] by the way, is there a reason why i could want to use gnomebaker instead of brasero? [18:24] then why should I try ubuntu when I already know how to configure and successfully set up gnome in debian? :) [18:24] adamonline45: iso [18:25] arjeboff: some people like different programs [18:25] mindshift don't try it then [18:25] mindshift: enjoy debian [18:25] arjeboff: no sweat, no offense taken... if you want an example, here's a thread on a gunforum i post on, where someone posted a problem w/ Linux... http://glocktalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=788546 [18:25] IndyGunFreak: hehe [18:25] wols ill try it anyway... [18:26] ikonia: What makes you prefer ubuntu over debian? [18:26] mindshift: I don't [18:26] unless you can give me a roundabout solution like uploading it somewhere and then downoading it onto phone [18:26] mindshift: I use tools fit for purpose [18:26] The CDs work on other machines. It has to be my PC. [18:26] what do you use ubuntu for? [18:27] mindshift: this is a bit off topic really, [18:27] Ok, has anyone else had any problems in gutsy where your wireless network just suddenly stops working, and you can't reboot or do anything at all? I have to hard power the machine down then bring it back up. When the network dies, I can't run iwconfig from a command line window or anything... it just hangs. [18:27] we are talking about ubuntu [18:27] mindshift: this is a support channel, not a chat channtl [18:27] mindshift: this is a support channel, not a chat channtl <------ something i didn't know [18:28] destroyer: check the topic with "/topic" when you enter a channel [18:28] ok [18:28] well i never use IRC so you can't blame me [18:28] Has noone got any other clues for me besides that my CD is broken/bad? I could not find anything on google, the wiki or the forums. [18:28] johannes__: if its your PC, then it could be a myriad of things.., bu tit doesn't sound like your PC.. i suspect this is either a burn issue, media issue, or you have some underlying incompatible hardware [18:28] destroyer: it wasnt a blame, it was an FYI. [18:28] destroyer: no-one is blaming you, people are explaining how to futher your experience [18:28] johannes__: whats the specs of the pC. [18:28] destroyer: ubuntu-offtopic and that is, i'm sorry to say, a pathetic excuse :) [18:29] I have a X1250 ATI integrated card, that will probably cause trouble somewhere. But the exact same CD booted fine a week ago. Then I installed Gutsy, upgraded to Hardy and now I want to reinstall but cant. [18:30] I downloaded what was supposed to be an .iso file, but it says it's a .cdr file. Kubuntu doesn't seem to know what to do with this. How should I burn the image to disk? [18:30] what is the preferred way to install programs in ubuntu? [18:30] mindshift: using an apt frontend. [18:30] mindshift: apt-get is easier [18:30] sudo apt-get install namepacket [18:30] packetname :d [18:30] johannes_:you already upgraded to hardy? [18:31] johannes__: you're using hardy? [18:31] even debian people don't use apt-get, they use aptitude install program [18:31] Just to test it. :) [18:31] Hi, How can I set up two routes for one gateway trough 2 WAN devices? I want to route LAN1 -> WAN1 -> GW and LAN2 -> WAN2 -> GW. [18:31] a pathetic excuse? not really, it looks like a chat room so i threw some questions out there for people to see eventually. anyways i won't argue anymore, i have a legitimate question that i'm waiting to ask. :) [18:31] * IndyGunFreak sighs... [18:31] mindshift: Are you here to be argumentative? or do you actually have a support question? [18:31] Since i wanted to cleanly reinstall anyway [18:31] mindshift:if you are a geek in debian, use apt-get, aptitude, synaptic ... if you are not, use the Add/Remove menu option [18:32] * IndyGunFreak encourages geekness [18:32] whats a good mp3 player for ubuntu? [18:32] mindshift, the good answer was Pici's answer: "use an APT frontend". which one you use depends on your preferences. [18:32] !players > KDuB (KDuB, see the private message from Ubotu) [18:32] KDub:VLC [18:32] !players | KDuB [18:32] KDuB: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).

[18:32] !players [18:32] :) [18:33] program :) [18:33] Audacious [18:33] audacious, is the one i like...., VLC is very good.., amarok is god, banshee, etc. [18:33] KDuB:Audacious is to edit sound files [18:33] IndyGunFreak: psst, look up a few lines, ubotu already did the factoid. [18:33] scorpfromhell: Audacity? [18:33] scorpfromhell, i think you're confusing that with Audacity [18:33] Ok, has anyone else had any problems in gutsy where your wireless network just suddenly stops working, and you can't reboot or do anything at all? I have to hard power the machine down then bring it back up. When the network dies, I can't run iwconfig from a command line window or anything... it just hangs. [18:33] scorpfromhell: ?...i think you mean audacity [18:33] Oops! [18:33] Hello. I have developed a super grub disk ISO that also contains Ubuntu 6.06 (it chainloads its isolinux). Does anyone of you want to test it? [18:33] Pici: i could tell the same to you ftm :P [18:34] Pici: sorry, headcold, i'm a bit slow on the uptake today...lol [18:34] LjL: :P it was less than a second apart :) [18:34] adrian15: not really, this is an ubuntu support channel and grub too disks already exist [18:34] :/ Damn. I guess Ill install WinXP then. [18:34] johannes__: you can try the alternate install CDs for Ubuntu... [18:35] !alternate | johannes__ [18:35] johannes__: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal [18:35] ikonia: an ubuntu users channel then ? (not a support one) [18:35] johannes__: I've had horrible problems with my installing lately, for no apparent reason. My primary HD fried and I took me 3 hours to get the ubuntu install working. Weird.

[19:06] arjeboff: wilco ... will do that right away, guess I would have to apt-get install it? [19:06] scorpfromhell: i REALLY love irssi a LOT. [19:06] devilsadvocate: you probably want to use a program like PureData or maybe Csound or SuperCollider. I'dstart with PureData and learn about JACK for easy routing of the audio [19:06] scorpfromhell: apt-get install irssi [19:06] LjL so how do i get rid of the root login to disable [19:06] Ok, has anyone else had any problems in gutsy where your wireless network just suddenly stops working, and you can't reboot or do anything at all?

[19:21] Hi my ccsm options are blocked why? [19:21] RoRza: that would depend on your monitor [19:21] Pici: yes, this is an install === nuu is now known as nu === nu is now known as nuu [19:21] I want to convert all of my m4a and mp3's to ogg vorbis. what is the best program to do this? i have a large playlist, and would prefer it to not be a script. =) [19:21] Pici:: you're a God amoungst mortals [19:21] fysffa: it doesn't ask for user/pass? that's not entirely normal. [19:21] can any of you halp me; the problem is GNOME; i can not login into it; but gnome failsafe works fine? [19:21] fysffa: How did you install gnome? [19:21] Marfi: first of all, it doesnt make sense [19:21] Anyone know why tftpd and dhcp refuse to work with an init script a [19:21] Pici, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [19:21] I need help with a somewhat advanced topic. I need to take a grouping of keysyms and remap them to new keycodes. Can anyone help me? [19:22] Anyone know why tftpd and dhcp refuse to work with an init script in amd64 gutsy [19:22] Pici: but it's not mine :), i'm just trying to help one of my friends ..so i don't know how exactly it was installed :) [19:22] Tyronep➲ is it installed? [19:22] Marfi: Sorry, I wasn't asking you. [19:22] ➲ ? [19:22] kahrytan, yes i can go in it but the options are all blocked [19:22] LimCore_➲ yes it's an arrow [19:22] Pici, just trying to help [19:22] Marfi: I was asking someone how they installed gnome, I'm familiar with the proper way :) [19:23] arjeboff, im trying to compress it all. basically, im trying to clean up my computer [19:23] fysffa, perhaps your friend set GDM up so that no user/pass is asked by default, i'm not sure how that's done and undone though. [19:23] Pici, np. =) [19:23] Marfi: soundconverter or nautilus-script-audio-convert [19:23] hi [19:23] Ljl ,Pici : will apt-get install kubuntu-desktop get me there? i mean if i boot will it get me into KDE ? [19:24] fysffa, *no*. [19:24] fysffa➲ more like add a kde session [19:24] Marfi: well it would mean a giant loss in quality which you don't want. also, you would have to ensure that noone else gets those oggs afterwards. transcodes are bad. [19:24] LjL: I thought it replaced GDM with KDM.. [19:24] or was that xubuntu-desktop? [19:24] hi, does anyone know why gtk would ignore a cursor theme/size setting? when non-gtk apps such as Firefox and Amarok display the proper cursors? [19:24] soundray: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47850/ [19:24] Pici: neither [19:24] Pici: it doesn't, KDM and GDM don't conflict, you can have both installed, and you select which one you prefer to use *manually* with dpkg-reconfigure [19:24] Hi my ccsm options are all locked what can i do? [19:24] arjeboff, from what i understand, its the complete opposite [19:25] LjL: No, I know they don't conflict. [19:25] Tyronep: Preferences>Plugin List>Autosort [19:25] Marfi: you can't polish a turd, the result will never be better than the source is you use to feed it. [19:25] balzac: is that all the output from sudo apt-get -f install? [19:25] sorry, i just updated it: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/47851/ [19:25] well Pici the simple fact of installing kubuntu-desktop doesn't change the default display manager [19:25] crdlb, thank you :) [19:26] balzac: your installation has succeeded. [19:26] arjeboff, i know that. but can you tell me how to burn .m4a's as an audio track without converting them first? =) [19:26] Hi peeps [19:26] ok, I just needed that confirmation. thanks. [19:26] hi [19:26] Marfi: without converting them first is only possible if you use a normal data filesystem on the cd and not an audio cd. [19:26] I wasn't sure because I've seen a lot of things that don't end with a progress indicator at 100%. Usually there's a message at the end and perhaps an ok button. [19:27] Will a ubuntu-based mail server work with blackberries? [19:27] arjeboff, i need to be able to burn them to cd's as audio [19:27] or perhaps it would be expected to go back to the tasksel interface or the terminal [19:27] balzac: it's hard to tell what happened, but apparently it was just a hiccup. [19:27] rubax: you could try to make it work via funambol [19:27] sudo cp FILE /PATH says omitting dir, but does not copy the file [19:27] What can I do, if my hdd isn't recognized by the bios ? (I already checked, that slave is set and correct) [19:27] Marfi: well in order to be able to do that the burning application needs to decompress the m4a files. [19:27] rubax: if blackberries support standard protocols such as imap/pop3, you will have no problems what so ever [19:27] and does anyone know how to configure xinetd to work with pop3 servers my evolution is not working anymore since i changed from inetd to xinetd [19:27] ok, thanks for your help soundray [19:28] DM|: are you sure that FILE is a file?

[19:36] firefly2442: it is possible using PHP code, if you want this in your PHP applications [19:36] firefly2442: if you want it in firefox, try selenium or some other extension that creates macros of your actions [19:36] soundray in other words, different users, different hard drives etc [19:36] scorpfromhell: sure I guess that would work, I could just juse the cli of php === `m0 is now known as m0` [19:36] DM|: no, the -a flag preserves ownerships if you use sudo (as you originally planned) [19:36] Pici: yeah a line of numbers and some text [19:36] soundray ah i see [19:36] I need some help with samba and NFS.

[19:38] firefly2442: I personally haven't used it ... but CURL functions in PHP should be of help ... check out the official PHP documentation on CURL [19:38] DM|: if you cp -a without sudo, cp will preserve as much as it can, except the file owner, which will always be the user.

[20:09] kazol_ what video card [20:09] kbrooks: Yeah, I know, but the question makes sense in general too. If I blindly fetch a Debian package, and the only change I make is to the changelog, for example - should the package then be foo-version-debversion or foo-version-debversion-ubuntu1?
