IG72 | ArthurArchnix: no, does not work | 00:00 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: ok did that | 00:00 |
neverblue | nickrud, neva! | 00:00 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, yes. I clicked install package. It doesn't do anything, says it doesn't have all the required files | 00:00 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: i plugged my shuffle in again and there's nothing in the trash (i emptied it) | 00:00 |

neverblue | quaal, what are you trying to do, keep your replies/question to one line | 00:01 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: Instead of clicking install, see if there is a button near the top saying something like missing dependencies (I forget the exact name) | 00:01 |

neverblue | !pastebin | IG72 | 00:01 |
ubotu | IG72: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 00:01 |

diseaser | The other day I got out my can opener and was opening a can of worms when I thought, "What am I doing?!" | 00:01 |
komputes | kitche: there is no "default.keyring" as mentioned in your solution, only "username.keyring" and "login.keyring" | 00:02 |
x-X-x__ | neverblue sorry | 00:02 |
quaal | neverblue, rebuild the YP database. | 00:02 |
havfunonline | how do you force quit an application? | 00:02 |
neverblue | quaal, no idea, never heard of YP db | 00:02 |
ArthurArchnix | IG72: Sorry, I'm fresh out of ideas here. I've stumbled across some bug reports, but they're all about hdds. Lost the link, but it doesn't matter because there's no workaround. | 00:02 |
kitche | komputes: well then that's probably why your keyring is not working like it should | 00:02 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: hmm, maybe there really is 1 gig of stuff on there | 00:02 |
neverblue | havfunonline, sudo killall <application name> or find the process id, and kill -9 <pid> | 00:02 |
solexious | any one know of an msn client for ubuntu i can use with commandline? | 00:02 |
komputes | kitche: so how do I reset it? | 00:03 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, the package installer has notw frozen and won't do anything, including die | 00:03 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Is the shuffle showing up on your desktop? If so right-click on it and choose properties. It will tell you size and free space. | 00:03 |
mhr | havfunonline: pgrep gives you the PID, pkill <app-name> kills it | 00:03 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: try alt+f2 "xkill" then click the window | 00:03 |
tnj | soldats, done | 00:03 |
patbam | "disk usage analyzer" says there's 967 megs on there, tho there's not even 100 songs on there | 00:03 |
crdlb | ninjabob7: well the EE lines show the problem :) Are you using nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new ? | 00:04 |
soldats | tnj, do you have the pastebin link | 00:04 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, that worked, thanks | 00:04 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: huh, weird: "221 items, totalling 966.5 MB" | 00:04 |
IG72 | ArthurArchnix: yes its a strange one, thanks for trying | 00:04 |
tnj | yes www.pastebin.com | 00:04 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: You got some big files. You can open the flash, then in nautlius under view choose list. THen you can arrange by size and see what's taking up all the space. Maybe you copied a video or something. | 00:04 |
ninjabob7 | crdlb: actually i can't get the debs to work so I installed it manually though | 00:04 |
tnj | soldats, yes | 00:04 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: thing is, i have deleted some songs to try to add others, and i still get the error | 00:04 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale: So what am I looking for now? | 00:04 |
crdlb | :/ | 00:04 |
CrazyWulf | Anyone know of any good apps for podcast subscriptions w/automatic downloading? Something with the ability to be trayed please | 00:05 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: (sorry for newbishness, and thanks for your help) what do you mean by open the flsah? | 00:05 |
crdlb | ninjabob7: it failed horrendously, so try installing it again I guess | 00:05 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: let's do it another way, do you still have that link I gave you where you downloaded the package? | 00:05 |
havfunonline | yeh | 00:05 |
havfunonline | I clicked on i386, I don't know it that was the right one | 00:05 |
ryan_ | downloaded file to desk top and tried to open - got msg .bin file not supported N e suggestions | 00:05 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: When you delete something off a flash drive it just moves it to the trash. It doesn't actually free up any space. Gnome developers don't consider this a bug. It's a feature. When using flash drives you should enable the bypass trash command and use the 'delete' option that does not move files to the trash. | 00:05 |
mhr | CrazyWulf: rhythmbox | 00:05 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: hmm, i put a bunch of .wav files on there. are those larger? | 00:05 |
ninjabob7 | crdlb: okay, i'l try that | 00:05 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: Do you see all the packages with a red diamond in front of them? | 00:05 |
danonura_ | i quick formatted an ntfs hd to ext3. is there an unformat i can do? i've used testdisk and photorec to recover some files but maybe it can be reverted. | 00:06 |
neverblue | ryan_, whats the file and its purpose ? | 00:06 |
mhr | CrazyWulf: rhythmbox for gnome, amarok for KDE | 00:06 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, red circle, yes | 00:06 |
ryan_ | game file Armyops | 00:06 |
soldats | tnj, after you copied the inputrc file to pastebin you need to press the submit button and it will give a special link to send to me | 00:06 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Sorry, I meant shuffle. Open up the shuffle folder. Then go >view >view as list. | 00:06 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: My bad, yes circles. Chack to see whether you have all those packages installed on your machine. | 00:07 |
tnj | soldats, http://pastebin.com/m72a50844 that must be it | 00:07 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, all of them 1 by 1? might take a while, how do I do that? | 00:07 |
ryan_ | aka AMERICAS aRMY | 00:07 |
CrazyWulf | mhr , Is there an addon I need for Amarok? I don't see anything concerning podcast subscriptions | 00:07 |
neo34 | hi people is there anyone speaking french ? | 00:07 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: here? http://ruphus.com/stash/ipod.png | 00:07 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam, the click on the name size in the column heading to sort the songs by file size. You'll see the biggest ones. Then delete the ones that are too big by using the delete command that bypasses the trash. | 00:07 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: Synaptic might be a good way. | 00:07 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Now click on ipod control. | 00:08 |

MTecknology | neo34, sup? | 00:12 |
Paddy_EIRE | thanks ArthurArchnix | 00:12 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: hmm, interesting: some of the mp3s that are visible on the device aren't visible in rhythmbox | 00:12 |
tnj | soldats, np, I need to leave soon anyhow, leaving channel shortly | 00:12 |
NoGoodNick | mhr: Yeah, I have that, but the command is... cryptic. | 00:13 |
Paddy_EIRE | ArthurArchnix, I found this error do you have any idea why it would be doing this all of a sudden? | 00:13 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: i have just 5 artists total visible in rhythmbox, but more when i look thru the folders | 00:13 |
Paddy_EIRE | ArthurArchnix, [ 41.852392] wifi%d: unable to attach hardware: 'Hardware revision not supported' (HAL status 13) | 00:13 |

neo34 | MTecknology, i can t restore my xp pro session ! i got a blue screen displayed quickly and my pc always boot and reboot | 00:13 |
IG72 | ArthurArchnix: Just FYI, some further searching has found this http://linux-ata.org/faq.html 2nd sub-title combined mode, I have an intel board, perhaps it is this. I will try it later.. | 00:13 |
ArthurArchnix | Paddy_EIRE: I'm not good at wireless. Direct it to the channel. Sorry. | 00:13 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: would it be unwise to try to "move to trash" from nautilus? | 00:13 |
Paddy_EIRE | ArthurArchnix, sure np | 00:14 |
komputes | kitche: any ideas what happenes if i delete the contents of ~/.gnome2/keyrings/ ? | 00:14 |

MTecknology | neo34, you tried in ##windows? I haven't touched windows in a LONG time, but you may want to try safe mode first. | 00:15 |
tnj | soldats, i see your post | 00:15 |
mhr | NoGoodNick: I used the alternate CD a few times and did not have to specify any parameters on the boot loader prompt | 00:15 |
soldats | tnj, ok http://pastebin.com/ma3ce214 id suggest just copy pasting the whole thing. after that close all terminals and open a new one and test by typing something and pressing pageup/down | 00:15 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: Are you still there? | 00:15 |
kitche | komputes: I have no idea what will happen | 00:15 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, Sure am | 00:16 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: How for along the list are you? | 00:16 |
soldats | tnj, make sure you do it for /etc/inputrc and make sure you edit it via sudo or gksudo | 00:16 |
tnj | soldats, ok | 00:16 |
komputes | kitche: see i don't want to risk it, but I really want to get rid of this keyring password which i apparantly don't know | 00:16 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam try this... find /media/IPOD -size +6000k | 00:16 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, not at all, I decided on doing it tomorrow, its after midnight and installing package by package would take a while | 00:16 |
NoGoodNick | mhr: I need to, because the gui defaults to 800x600, and the install program cannot handle that gracefully. I have the alternate cd and the full dvd. | 00:16 |
komputes | kitche: does the login procedure require this directory? | 00:17 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam... that will list every file in your ipod that's bigger than 6MB. | 00:17 |

patbam | 70 items, according to |nl | 00:17 |
Reborn | Anyone knows how to turn off icons in GNOME? | 00:17 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: So you have a lot of songs over 6MB. It's not wonder your Ipod fills up so fast. | 00:17 |
soldats | tnj, just let me know if it works | 00:17 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: paste this into a ternimal: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53257/ | 00:17 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: but what i don't understand is why they're not showing up in rhtyhmbox | 00:17 |
tnj | soldats, ok | 00:18 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: do you think it's ok to trash stuff from nautilus? | 00:18 |
tnj | soldats, going to try apply it now | 00:18 |
comicinker | how can i make "is bigger than" in bash? if [ "$Var"/"$divider" > "$Limit" ];then ? | 00:18 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: several of hte songs showing up from that find don't show up in nautilus | 00:18 |
Odd-rationale | havfunonline: Everything with a "p" you don't have installed. Everything with an "i" you already have installed. | 00:18 |
havfunonline | Odd-rationale, will that work if I can't connect to the internet | 00:18 |

* komputes is getting tired from repetition | 00:21 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Well, if you don't have a problem with re-adding files to your flash, maybe you should just completely clean all the files off it and start fresh. | 00:21 |
soldats | tnj, you may have to go to the page you showed me and do the echo command in ther terminal for it to apply | 00:21 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Sorry, ipod, not flash | 00:21 |
soldats | then open a new tab and see if it works | 00:22 |

ArthurArchnix | patbam wants to delete everything from his ipod and start fresh. I was going to recommend "sudo rm -R /media/IPOD/*" but I thought the channel should chime in here. I'm certain of the mount point, but when he plugs in his shuffle next time will linux automatically recreate the file system? I mean when attached to Amarok or something. Also want to confirm the safety of the command. Patbam if no one responds, ask someone to look at that comm | 00:26 |

pulicoti | ello everyone | 00:29 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: You have windows? | 00:29 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: With itunes? | 00:29 |
bod_ | leila_, could you rephrase that please,. i dont understand,.,.? | 00:30 |
Whisper | is there any graphical application out that can open truecrypt volymes? | 00:30 |
ChamPro | patbam: yeah, iTunes will just reformat if need be | 00:30 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: i haven't installed iwndows and i rarely use it but i suppose i could as a last resort | 00:30 |
pulicoti | did someone check that problem with java applets on yahoo games? | 00:30 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Ignore the command then. Just plug it into itunes and tell itunes to restore to factory default. Much safer. | 00:30 |
bastid_raZor | Odd-rationale; that is an opinion.. i disagree but that is also my opinion | 00:30 |
=== crd1b is now known as crdlb |
bod_ | ArthurArchnix, itunes = worst program ever | 00:30 |
ArthurArchnix | patbam: Oh... sorry, thought you had a dual boot. Ok, just paste that command I typed into a terminal. | 00:30 |
Odd-rationale | bastid_raZor: What do you like? i'm open to others opinions. :) | 00:30 |
Jangari | hey, i finally got the mount command working and connecting me perfectly to the server, but now i want to do it automatically from startup, is that possible? | 00:30 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix: well i'm thinkin i oughta take one for the team & see if your semi-dangerous command works :) | 00:30 |
patbam | exciting! | 00:30 |
patbam | hehe | 00:30 |
Dukan | good night | 00:31 |
MeNos | PriceChild , any hopes ? | 00:31 |
Jangari | don't tell me to use fstab, it doesn't work | 00:31 |
Dukan | pitusha | 00:31 |
PriceChild | MeNos, it is possible, have you read the wiki's page for it? | 00:31 |
leila_ | bod_: my external hard disk go in spindown | 00:31 |
bastid_raZor | Odd-rationale; i find transmission works very well for Gnome, yet i use Ktorrent regardless it being a KDE app | 00:31 |
slestak | anyone use eclipse on ubuntu? | 00:31 |
pulicoti | i am still having problems with java on ubuntu 7.10 | 00:31 |
ArthurArchnix | Jangari: Fstab is loaded before network... I think, so I wouldn't think it would work. | 00:31 |
* patbam tries it, crosses fingers | 00:32 |
Jangari | right, | 00:32 |
ArthurArchnix | Jangari: I think pam-mount is the answer you're looking for. | 00:32 |
bod_ | leila_, im not to familliar with usb HD im afraid,. try asking PriceChild | 00:32 |
Jangari | any othe rconfig file that runs on startup? | 00:32 |
Jangari | pam-mount eh? | 00:32 |

pulicoti | can smeone help me ? | 00:32 |
PriceChild | bod_, if i know the answer i will anwer | 00:32 |
th0r | Jangari put the mount command in .bashrc or .profile | 00:32 |
Jangari | i'll check it out | 00:32 |
PriceChild | bod_, please don't just direct people to me | 00:32 |
Odd-rationale | bastid_raZor: Hmm. Never you used transmission. But yes, I like ktorrent. | 00:32 |
bod_ | PriceChild, sorry | 00:32 |
Jangari | ah, th0r, are they run on login? | 00:32 |
MeNos | i don't knowabout the wiki's page PriceChild, but i have searched and googled alot all the instructions i found never helped so am thinking this are just lies | 00:32 |
pulicoti | can you read me? | 00:33 |
ArthurArchnix | "pam_mount is a Pluggable Authentication Module that can mount volumes for a user session. Supports any filesystem your kernel is capable of, including tmpfs, FUSE, smbfs, cryptoloop, LUKS mounts, --bind and more." Jangari... that's from the website. There's lots of howtos on the forums. | 00:33 |
Dukan | vermes | 00:33 |
th0r | Jangari yes...check the details...one is run every time you open a shell (.profile I think) and one is just run the first time you log in (.bashrc I think)...but check to make sure | 00:33 |
bastid_raZor | Odd-rationale; transmission uses far less resources .. i can't get away from the interface of Ktorrent. | 00:33 |
bod_ | MeNos, try here ,.,. http://news.softpedia.com/news/Ubuntu-7-10-on-PS3-73272.shtml | 00:33 |
PriceChild | MeNos, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java#head-81c3789bc76872336f69a7af90d1759ef38eeb64 | 00:33 |
Jangari | ~/.bashrc: executed by bash(1) for non-login shells. | 00:33 |
Odd-rationale | bastid_raZor: Is transmission based on gtk? | 00:34 |
Jangari | # ~/.profile: executed by the command interpreter for login shells. - that's more like it | 00:34 |
Jangari | i think | 00:34 |
patbam | ArthurArchnix, ChamPro: looks good! thank you both. | 00:34 |
pulicoti | just tell me if someone can read what i type please | 00:34 |
th0r | Jangari warned you I might have them wrong <smile> | 00:34 |

Dukan | acéfalograma | 00:36 |
bod_ | MeNos, sorry,. must have read ur post wrong,.,. my bad | 00:36 |
Jangari | so th0r, that description of .profile suggests that it runs on login to a session? not just on running the shell? | 00:37 |
bod_ | pulicoti, im using the same,. let me give it a try,.,. hang on | 00:37 |
MeNos | anyways its all good bod_ | 00:37 |
ChamPro | bastid_raZor: considering rTorrent and BTG (which uses libtorrent), but neither has updated packages for Gutsy, so I'm going to have to use ones from Hardy | 00:37 |
MeNos | you tried to help :( | 00:37 |
bod_ | lol | 00:37 |

Jangari | also, more generally, what's the command to search all folder and all subdirectories (recursively, that is) from a given tree for particular filenames/types? | 00:38 |
bastid_raZor | ChamPro; good luck, i'm curious to know how it works for you..please come back and give your review | 00:38 |
bod_ | pulicoti, are you using the ubuntu amd64 bit version or the 32 bit? | 00:38 |

MeNos | PriceChild ? what does this means " There is now an easier way to install the IBM JDK, all you have to do is to add the medibuntu-repository to your sources.list " | 00:49 |
bod_ | pulicoti, yer | 00:49 |
MILLNERS__ | Odd-rationale, I have ps, is and vs | 00:49 |

MILLNERS__ | which means which? | 00:51 |
kitche | pulicoti: that's not the plugin package | 00:52 |
tacosalad | if anyone could help me- i just have a couple what i imagine would be quick questions | 00:52 |
pulicoti | and also the plug in | 00:52 |
Odd-rationale | MILLNERS__: The i you have installed already. Just get the p | 00:52 |

jhend60 | I have a problem | 00:53 |
johnathon | kitche i typed sudo dpkg -i| <filename> and it says this dpkg: --install needs at least one package archive file argument | 00:53 |
jhend60 | THe Pastebin page is here | 00:53 |
jhend60 | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53261/ | 00:53 |
kitche | pulicoti: it actually --config java I believe | 00:53 |
jhend60 | please fix it | 00:53 |
jhend60 | :( | 00:53 |
pulicoti | ok | 00:54 |
kitche | johnathon: <filename> is the package you have downloaded which is the .deb so it would be sudo dpkg -i isnapa.deb or whatever sorry have a short memory for long package names :) | 00:54 |
siriusnova | anyone? | 00:54 |
donluigi | hello, i need help formating an NTSF partition to EXT3 | 00:54 |
johnathon | kitche i did type the file name i just didnt wanna type the long name on here cuz its long-ish | 00:55 |
jesse | anyone know the best way to make a Playlist or which player will run in the terminal...using a playlist ? | 00:55 |
Dr_willis_ | donluigi, you mean converting an existing ntfs filesystem to ext3. keeping all the data intact? | 00:55 |
kitche | johnathon: why does it show sudo dpkg -i| then? | 00:55 |
MeNos | Good Job PriceChild , this might be the instruction i been searching for | 00:55 |
donluigi | Dr_Willis_, i dont mind for the data, i already made a backup | 00:56 |
kitche | johnathon: can you pastebin the exact command you used to pastebin.ca | 00:56 |
Dr_willis_ | donluigi, use gparted. delete partition, make it again, set its type to ext3. format it. | 00:56 |
misc-- | hello... regarding the eee pc, is anyone having problems with the Atheros ethernet driver? I have installed ubuntu on it without a problem, followed some guides. ifconfig eth0 shows as active, so I set an IP on it but can't ping out or anything. The weird thing is that ifconfig eth0 shows no transmitted packets either | 00:56 |
donluigi | Dr_Willis_, i installed gparted, but its nowhere in my applications menu | 00:56 |
johnathon | kitche cuz i needed superuser privs and that what it told me to type when i typed dpkg -- help | 00:56 |
Dr_willis_ | donluigi, or use some other fdisking tool to delete/remake the partition. Or you proverly can just change its type.\ | 00:56 |
Dr_willis_ | donluigi, use 'sudo gparted' the shell is our friend | 00:57 |
bkar | misc---> check your route table | 00:57 |
donluigi | thank you | 00:57 |
johnathon | kitche where do i find pastebin.ca? | 00:57 |
bkar | misc---> having an ip address is not good enuff | 00:57 |
kitche | johnathon: do sudo dpkg --i packagename.deb and it should install | 00:57 |
MeNos | Dr_Wllis ,Flares and all you other ops out there , you guys should look up to PriceChild and learn from him | 00:57 |
kitche | johnathon: pastebin.ca is a website you can paste things to for others to see | 00:57 |
tacosalad | can i make a program that would automate several commands in terminal - ie. change directory and run a program with set parameters? | 00:57 |
misc-- | bkar: it should be. I'm only trying to ping the gateway | 00:57 |
bod_ | !pastebin | 00:57 |
ubotu | pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 00:57 |
* bastid_raZor laughs | 00:57 |
bkar | misc---> it is not, as proven you can not ping eh? | 00:58 |
solexious | Hi guys, I want to send the output of a command to an email, like "du /home/HardDriveSpace/ -h", what do I need to do this? | 00:58 |
Flare183 | MeNos: we try | 00:58 |
Dr_willis_ | MeNos, Im not an op. :) and i havent noticed Pricechild doing anything today.. i just got here. | 00:58 |
misc-- | bkar: it's all on the same subnet (besides, adding a route doesn't help) | 00:58 |
johnathon | kitche it didnt install | 00:58 |
* Dr_willis_ has been busy editing wiki pages lately | 00:58 |
bkar | misc---> alright, do as you wish, cant argue with you | 00:58 |
MeNos | sure he has | 00:58 |
kitche | johnathon: pastebin the error it outputs | 00:59 |
johnathon | i did | 00:59 |
kitche | johnathon: well I need the link to it | 00:59 |
emma | Is this the correct way to get Apache -- "sudo apt-get install apache" ? | 00:59 |
donluigi | Dr_Willis_, i have yet another 140 gigs to backup on another hard drive in order to format to ext3, is there a way to do this without having to do the backup? | 00:59 |
creature | How does blkid work WRT removable media? Is it identifying a particular drive, or the data on it? Basically, in my fstab should I use UUIDs generated from blkid or /dev/disk/by-id links? | 00:59 |
tacosalad | anyone? please? can i make a program that would automate several commands in terminal - ie. change directory and run a program with set parameters? | 00:59 |
johnathon | http://pastebin.ca/870359 | 00:59 |
emma | I want to install apache, mysql and php on ubuntu. | 00:59 |
misc-- | bkar: how is the gateway related when I'm only trying to ping a box on the same subnet? | 00:59 |
eichholz | greetings my brothers and sisters of africa | 01:00 |
Dr_willis_ | donluigi, ive not seen any way to convert ntfs to ext3. Its possible theres some way to do it.. but ive never seen or heard of anyond doing it. as for the backups - ask yourself.. can you risk losing the data? | 01:00 |
Flare183 | !lamp > emma | 01:00 |
LogicalDash | What might have caused OpenOffice's button icons to disappear? | 01:01 |
Flare183 | LogicalDash: you theme | 01:01 |
Dr_willis_ | donluigi, in theory you could resize the filesystem making a smaller ext3. move data to the new partition, then resize the ext3 taking up the rest of the ntfs.. but that is a nasty way to do it. | 01:01 |
Flare183 | LogicalDash: or colors | 01:01 |
Flare183 | your* | 01:01 |
LogicalDash | Flare183, yeah I changed my colors | 01:01 |
solexious | Hi guys, I want to send the output of a command to an email, like "du /home/HardDriveSpace/ -h", what do I need to do this? | 01:01 |
Flare183 | LogicalDash: that's the problem then | 01:01 |
donluigi | Dr_Willis_, i agree. what i intend on doing is just copy that info into the partition im about to format, and then format the other | 01:01 |
johnathon | kitche http://pastebin.ca/870359 | 01:02 |
LogicalDash | Flare183, what do I have to do to get the icons back? Any way to do it without changing the colors back? | 01:02 |
Dr_willis_ | solexious, a lot depends on which email client you want to use. Proberly easiest to just do a du /home/HardDriveSpace/ -h > spaceinfo.txt | 01:02 |
creature | tacosalad: You can do that with an alias and some chaining of commands. | 01:02 |

johnathon | kitche i'll brb | 01:07 |
arma | hi boys | 01:07 |
kitche | johnathon: ok | 01:07 |
tacosalad | creature: i'm confused, just as an example, say i want these to commands to happen; "cd stuff" "sudo windmill -x -y -z" | 01:08 |
agsimeonov | So what do USB powered toothbrushes do? And are there drivers for Linux? | 01:08 |
olskolirc | what is windmill? | 01:09 |
creature | tacosalad: OK, let's say you wanted to make that a command called 'windmillcd'. You'd type the following into a terminal: alias windmillcd='cd stuff && sudo windmill -x -y -z' | 01:09 |
creature | Then, you can type 'windmillcd' and it will cd then sudo. | 01:09 |
LaserJock | does anybody know if tracker indexes pdfs? | 01:09 |
creature | If you put this in your .bashrc, it'll persist across logins/shells. | 01:09 |
tacosalad | creature: oohhh haha well thats easy enough | 01:09 |
tacosalad | thanks a lot | 01:09 |
creature | No problem. | 01:09 |
creature | You may want to have a look at the bash manpage, it's got details of using && and the semicolon. You could also do "cd stuff; sudo windmill -x -y -z", which is subtly different. | 01:10 |
olskolirc | did we just have a net split? | 01:11 |

Dan_ultimate | now how do i get it in gnome? | 01:16 |
tacosalad | creature: hey on a semi-related note, is it possible to take the output from one command and use it in another command, like aircrack for instance, if i wanted to automate part of that, i could take the MAC of the point it gives and make it autoconnect to it and so on? | 01:16 |
bazhang | Dan_ultimate: which dvd is this? the ultimate dvd? | 01:17 |
creature | tacosalad: Yes, it is. You want a basic tutorial on bash scripting, really. | 01:17 |
kitche | tacosalad: you can pipe commands to another command no clue what you want to do with aircrack though to really do it | 01:17 |
dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: you should be running gnome already. do you see the desktop? | 01:17 |
Dan_ultimate | ubuntu gutsy livecd/dvd.. | 01:17 |
Dan_ultimate | yea.. buti want koffice in it.. | 01:17 |
pewpewpew | Should one use the format logical or primary for the ubuntu-ext3 partition? | 01:17 |
bazhang | Dan_ultimate: the cd or the dvd | 01:18 |
Dan_ultimate | like before i install.. i want to get to know how things work. | 01:18 |
bazhang | Dan_ultimate: then install it | 01:18 |
Dan_ultimate | so i like koffice.. | 01:18 |
Dan_ultimate | lol | 01:18 |
dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: yeah, just install it. | 01:18 |
Dan_ultimate | i will eventually.. | 01:18 |
johnathon | kitche im back | 01:18 |
dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: no, i mean install koffice | 01:18 |
tacosalad | its the only thing i've really messed with so far, but i think if i could automate a WEP crack that would be challenging and hopefully familiarize myself with linux some more | 01:18 |
Dan_ultimate | anyways.. koffice is for kde desktop environment isn't it? | 01:18 |
=== Dukan is now known as Dukan_Ismael |
Flare183 | Dan_ultimate: yeap | 01:18 |
dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: yeah, you can install gnome and kde at the same time. | 01:18 |
tacosalad | i'll read up on the bash scripting, thanks | 01:18 |
bazhang | pewpewpew: you mean lvm? | 01:18 |
kitche | johnathon: can you ls -l ~/Desktop and pastebin that for me | 01:18 |
Dan_ultimate | so can it run in gnome? | 01:19 |
bazhang | Dan_ultimate: sure | 01:19 |
Flare183 | Dan_ultimate: yeah you can | 01:19 |
Dan_ultimate | i found it using the synaptic package manager.. | 01:19 |
pulicoti | sorry but it did fix the flash bug but not the javas | 01:19 |
Dan_ultimate | but wusn't sure if it would work without kde installed.. | 01:19 |
dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: do you _need_ koffice or could you use openoffice? | 01:19 |
punkshui | unfortunately i'm in a situation where i have to take ubuntu off of a laptop and restore it. i didn't alter the "dell restore" partition. I now wish to restore it to its factory settings. | 01:19 |
IgorSobreira | i've installed sendmail in my ubuntu, but i dont want it to start in boot time...what can i do? | 01:19 |
Dan_ultimate | hmm.. open office is good.. but koffice has like kivio n sum other stuff.. | 01:19 |
dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: what will happen is when you go to install koffice it'll automatically install everything it needs, even kde. | 01:19 |
bazhang | Dan_ultimate: it will install some kde stuff iirc | 01:20 |
Dan_ultimate | so kde gets installed if needed.. | 01:20 |

dho_ragus | Dan_ultimate: the problem with running it off a livecd is that it will download and install a bunch of stuff... but if you reboot, you'll have to do it all again. | 01:20 |
bazhang | punkshui: the dell backup dvd or cd should be able to do that | 01:20 |
olskolirc | what recorder do we use? | 01:20 |

redoxy | when my system runs out of memory, the swap usage starts growing fast but it doesn't seem to ever go back down--the physical ram usage does, but everything remains in swap. is this normal? how could I make it put the memory back in RAM? | 01:41 |

Flare183 | redoxy: can ram= READ ONLY MEMORY | 01:41 |
scguy318 | littlebear72: I prefer gFTP | 01:42 |
LjL | redoxy, unless the system *needs* those data back in memory, there is no reason why it should put them back. but when it does need them, it'll put them back, trust me | 01:42 |
Flare183 | redoxy: you can write to it and read but you can't erase | 01:42 |

MeNos | One last question | 02:18 |
lagooned | so does aptitude...doesnt it? | 02:18 |
david__ | the reason for this is because one of the config files in the system files has set all the repos to not be checked (with a # in front of it) | 02:18 |
scguy318 | lagooned: it may too | 02:18 |
bazhang | sure | 02:18 |
unop | tdnnash26, yes, it seems to have downloaded the source -- add user is at - adduser-3.103ubuntu1/examples/adduser.local.conf.examples/adduser.conf | 02:19 |
david__ | what was the name of the file and where was it | 02:19 |
david__ | thats all i need to know | 02:19 |

casey_ | the new Linux was release yesterday | 02:45 |
bazhang | but not for this channel casey_ | 02:45 |
shrug | yeah.... i just want to use fluxbox for the low resources | 02:45 |

matjan_work | hello, i own a thinkpad t61 and have not been able to use the Fn-F7 functionality to switch to projector output (e.g. for doing a presentation)... has anyone here been able to get this to work with gutsy? | 02:47 |
bazhang | seen thinkwiki matjan_work? | 02:48 |
matjan_work | bazhang, yup | 02:48 |
unop | pteague, if you want to share a partition -- don't make that one /boot -- name it something like /data and format it as FAT/NTFS | 02:48 |
wyclif | matjan_work i'm using a T60 w/ Gutsy right now. *maybe* i can help? | 02:48 |
matjan_work | bazhang, yet a few weeks back | 02:48 |
matjan_work | wyclif, that would be great | 02:48 |
bazhang | hehe | 02:49 |
rodolfo | unop: that's great...btw have you noticed some driver update for i915(tarball, deb or whatever)? | 02:49 |
casey_ | I read a lot on it before I try it I just I wont to see what anyone think about openSUSE | 02:49 |
wyclif | matjan_work not sure if these IBMs are exactly the same | 02:49 |
matjan_work | wyclif, right | 02:49 |
wyclif | matjan_work what do you use for presentations? | 02:49 |
pteague | unop> k, was just wondering about /boot between linuxes... messed with dual-boot for windows before... & i don't use fat/ntfs unless i have to ;o) i found an ext2/3 driver for windows :) | 02:50 |
matjan_work | wyclif, i am going to do one soon using LaTeX/Beamer, so any document viewer | 02:50 |
unop | rodolfo, have you tried updating with synaptic? | 02:50 |
matjan_work | wyclif, otherwise i have stuck to powerpoint... i do not like oo impress | 02:50 |
wyclif | matjan_work oops just realised I can't test it on my setup now | 02:50 |
A_la_rue | HAve the big bug, see this web page explain my problem: http://www.gtk.org/setuid.html. what is the solution | 02:51 |
wyclif | matjan_work just please tell me you don't read the slides ;-) | 02:51 |

Dr_willis_ | pteague, when using 2 differt distros on same machine. I let one handle all the grub configuration. if needed i cut/copy/paste/edit the menu.lst used by the grub handling Disrto. and paste in whatever entries i need from the other disrtos menu.lst :P | 02:51 |
MeNos | JavaJake ? what is IcedTea ? | 02:51 |
unop | pteague, /boot is where linux places special boot-files, the kernel and initrd -- you really dont want that space tampered with | 02:51 |
MeNos | does it replace Java ? | 02:51 |
Dr_willis_ | pteague, this is when it pays to know the ins and outs of grub. | 02:51 |
pteague | 96woger | 02:51 |
rodolfo | unop: yes I did..also I took a look @ intel's page, but there's nothing about i915... | 02:51 |
matjan_work | wyclif, have you used your t60 before to do a presentation in gutsy? | 02:52 |
wyclif | matjan_work uh oh. unfortunately the little lady is calling, so i have to drop out, but i'm sure someone here can help you? | 02:52 |

MeNos | Dr_willis_ are there any diff between PPC and PPC64 architecture ? | 02:54 |
matjan_work | bazhang, is it not good? | 02:54 |
pteague | IndyGunFreak> i probably want something a bit closer to 1gb right? wonder why the ubuntu installer automatically set it at 9.4gb... | 02:54 |
bazhang | not as good as yours matjan_work | 02:54 |
matjan_work | :) | 02:55 |
Dr_willis_ | MeNos, no idea - i dont mess with PPC | 02:55 |
unop | MeNos, the same difference between i386 and ia64 on the PCs | 02:55 |
IndyGunFreak | pteague: thats a pretty strange number, thats for sure, rule of thumb for swap, 1.5-2x your system memory, i havef 3gigs on both of my 1gig memory machines, and iv'e never accessed my swap, ever. | 02:55 |
matjan_work | bazhang, but were you able to get Fn-F7 to work? | 02:55 |
matjan_work | bazhang, or restart X to get it to work? | 02:55 |
lugnut64 | can someone help me | 02:55 |

winkman | lugnut64: have you got synaptic or another installer running? Close that or any other terminal windows then try again | 02:59 |
bazhang | matjan_work: I could get it to work--just too lazy :{ | 02:59 |

matjan_work | bazhang, anyway... gotta work a bit more on that presentation... i am out of here... thanks for now | 03:00 |

lugnut64 | no error appeares just a window with a globe in the upper left, no text | 03:02 |
javaJake | lugnut64, that's not apt-get | 03:03 |
chalcedony | how do i move a file from my cd drive to my computer to dcc ? on ubuntu feisty with command line? | 03:03 |
javaJake | apt-get never opens a window (or rarely) | 03:03 |
lugnut64 | i had that error message a while back | 03:03 |
lugnut64 | now i can't get it to appear | 03:03 |
chalcedony | lugnut64: intermittent errors are such fun | 03:04 |
lugnut64 | is there any way i can email you my problem | 03:04 |
unop | chalcedony, what is dcc? | 03:04 |
chalcedony | unop i want to send the file to a friend via irc | 03:04 |
lugnut64 | email a picture | 03:04 |
chalcedony | lugnut64: put it on a pastebin? | 03:04 |

javaJake | lugnut64, tinypic.com | 03:05 |
chalcedony | lugnut64: you could also do a screen capture | 03:05 |
winkman | Would there be any reason why i can't just sudo apt-get install grub2? Will it keep my original grub settings? | 03:05 |
unop | lugnut64, what happens when you run this command ? sudo sh -c "apt-get update; aptitude update" ? | 03:05 |
lugnut64 | nothing | 03:05 |

nickrud | lugnut64: ok, ps -A | grep dpkg , do you see more than 1 line ( something more than the ps one) | 03:12 |
nickrud | pteague: yes, it's about the disk drive, not the os | 03:12 |
lugnut64 | ? | 03:12 |
smick | anyone able to use VEOH on ubuntu yet? | 03:12 |
lugnut64 | again, i am new to this | 03:13 |
nickrud | lugnut64: I'm looking for a line that says dpkg is in use, if there is you will get two or more lines | 03:13 |
mneptok | nickrud: actually, it's about the partition table. standard DOS tables only support 4 primary partitions. | 03:13 |
Natrive | I installed aMSN and i try to login, but i have to install a TLS module and i doesn't worl. Any ideas? | 03:14 |
nickrud | lugnut64: ps lists all the running processes, and the | grep dpkg searches for any process named dpkg | 03:14 |
nickrud | mneptok: details, details :) Still comes down to what's on the drive, not the os | 03:14 |
stingray72 | hey guys, one more question.. I've got ubuntu amd64 installed and working well with ati drivers installed by nvidia. The update wants to update the x server. IS there any proactive stuff I can do to make sure X works post update? | 03:14 |
Linuxishawt | Hello all, I need a little help with some command line kung-fu, I want to create a directory with the name being the timestamp, I've looked at the man page for mkdir and tried googling it and still need a bit of help, thanks | 03:15 |
nickrud | stingray72: ati drivers installed by nvidia ??? | 03:15 |
mneptok | nickrud: aye. the OS is limited, not the limiter | 03:15 |
stingray72 | err.. envy | 03:15 |
stingray72 | sorry about that | 03:15 |
nickrud | mneptok: aye, I'm just so used to thinking in terms of dos partitions I forget there are other types | 03:16 |
nickrud | s/partitions/partition tables/ | 03:16 |
lugnut64 | when i typed ps all that came out is 11225 pts/0 and 11405 pts/0 | 03:16 |

stingray72 | seemed to work well | 03:17 |
stingray72 | and everything is working great | 03:17 |
bazhang | !envy | stingray72 | 03:17 |
ubotu | stingray72: envy is not needed or supported. Use the Resticted Manager to install binary drivers and see « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 03:17 |
lugnut64 | one has 00:00:00 bash and the other has 00:00:00 ps | 03:18 |
mneptok | nickrud: GPT, baby | 03:18 |
stingray72 | ok then | 03:18 |
stingray72 | so use envy to uninstall the driver and roll back | 03:18 |
lugnut64 | 11225 has the bash and 11409 has the ps | 03:18 |
nickrud | mneptok: gpt? | 03:18 |
osmosis | How do I run winxp inside of ubuntu? Parallels ? | 03:18 |
stingray72 | then update and then use Restricted manager? | 03:18 |
nickrud | lugnut64: so you do probably have a dpkg process running, close every terminal you have open | 03:18 |
thecrono | Does ark handle passworded .rar files? | 03:18 |

Zoohouse | Hello everyone. I have a friend who installed Ubuntu on his Dell Inspiron 2200 laptop but the network isn't working. What should I tell him to do? | 03:21 |
jjlwork | i upgraded to hardy heron and it broke my wireless, i am using iwl3945, dmesg shows eveything fine, restricted drivers manager shows enabled but unavailable can anyone help? | 03:22 |
_Andrew | jjlwork, Is your wireless switched on? | 03:22 |
nickrud | jjlwork: try on #ubuntu+1 they know the newer version (better than here) | 03:22 |
lugnut64 | i guess i will do a fresh install of ubuntu | 03:22 |
jjlwork | thanks | 03:22 |
mneptok | jjlwork: #ubuntu+1, please | 03:23 |
jjlwork | yes it is on | 03:23 |
nickrud | lugnut64: still no go? | 03:23 |
_Andrew | Well i'm all out of ideas :P | 03:23 |
crwlr | does anybody use the enlightenment environment? | 03:23 |
mneptok | Zoohouse: what does lspci tell you about the hardware? | 03:23 |
nickrud | lugnut64: log out and back in, and if that fails let me know. | 03:23 |
IndyGunFreak | jjlwork: why did you upgrade to hardy? | 03:23 |
lugnut64 | already tried | 03:23 |
nickrud | lugnut64: you will *not* have to reinstall | 03:23 |
Zoohouse | i will tell him to do that now. mneptok | 03:23 |
Zoohouse | hld pls | 03:23 |
mneptok | crwlr: if you want to try Enlightenment, grab a Geubuntu .iso | 03:23 |
adub | when i right click on a program a program that i have removed still shows up in my options to use to open a program | 03:23 |
adub | how can i deleted this?? | 03:23 |
nickrud | lugnut64: ok, time for the big gun: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock | 03:24 |
adub | its like on the open with feature | 03:24 |
lugnut64 | ok... | 03:24 |
lugnut64 | and it did... what? | 03:25 |
crwlr | mneptok: well i was interested in the look of gOS, but i found a guide on how to install it with gutsy | 03:25 |
mneptok | crwlr: sudo apt-get install enlightenment | 03:25 |
nickrud | lugnut64: it removed the flag that said another dpkg was in process. Somewhere you did a bad shutdown, probably when the updater was running in the background | 03:25 |
lugnut64 | oh... | 03:25 |
crwlr | mneptok: that geubuntu looks SHAWEET! | 03:26 |
mneptok | crwlr: go nuts :) | 03:26 |
lugnut64 | i understand | 03:26 |
regeya | I wonder if gOS would offer any clues on the lappy I got my wife for christmas. everex stepnot nc1610; fan runs like crazy after boot, won't run at all after coming out of hibernation, dsdt fix for nc1503 does not work for the machine...anyway. | 03:27 |
mneptok | crwlr: hrm. they changed names to OpenGEU. but it's still the same sauce. | 03:27 |
lugnut64 | no go on the update | 03:28 |
Shpook | Okay, I need some help. I installed Gutsy on my wife's laptop, and wireless was working flawlessly. I then proceeded to install Samba so she could share files between the laptop and her desktop, and now the wireless won't pick up a connection at all. Any idea how I can fix this? | 03:29 |
nickrud | lugnut64: any error? | 03:29 |
lugnut64 | well, the the dimming gray window telling me that it has stopped responding | 03:30 |
nickrud | lugnut64: open a terminal | 03:30 |
lugnut64 | done | 03:30 |
danny | hello | 03:31 |
nickrud | lugnut64: sudo aptitude update | 03:31 |
mneptok | nickrud: please no. | 03:31 |
regeya | o_O | 03:31 |
nickrud | mneptok: no aptitude? | 03:31 |
mneptok | nickrud: please use apt tools instead of aptitude | 03:31 |
lugnut64 | i am not on the internet on my desktop (no wireless) | 03:31 |
regeya | someone wsa flooding? | 03:31 |
lugnut64 | i am updating from a cd | 03:31 |
danny | hello | 03:31 |
mneptok | nickrud: apt tools get a lot more attention from core devs than does aptitude. new features and fixes will hit apt tools long before aptitude. | 03:32 |
nickrud | mneptok: ok, it was an automatic finger flick. So it's official now, apt-get. Wondered if a decision would ever be made | 03:32 |
pawan | hi | 03:32 |
danny | i'm new to ubuntu and i have a question | 03:32 |
pawan | where in tmp directory youtube videos are sotres | 03:32 |
danny | can someone help me | 03:32 |
pawan | stored | 03:32 |
crwlr | danny: just ask | 03:32 |
bazhang | !info apt-tools | 03:32 |
ubotu | Package apt-tools does not exist in gutsy | 03:32 |
mneptok | nickrud: dunno "official," but the distro team has been pretty clear with us about it | 03:32 |
* mneptok shrugs | 03:32 |
nickrud | mneptok: official enough for me, then. | 03:32 |
Shpook | Anyone ever had a problem when installing Samba? As soon as I installed it, wireless networking stopped working | 03:32 |
IndyGunFreak | !someone | danny | 03:32 |
ubotu | danny: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 03:32 |
nickrud | lugnut64: so, sudo apt-get update :) | 03:33 |
mneptok | nickrud: yeah, same here. i save my fighting energy to convince the wife i need more geek toys. not fighting with distro team uber-geeks about update methodologies. ;) | 03:33 |
lugnut64 | i am not online on that computer | 03:33 |
danny | is there a statistical program for ubuntu | 03:33 |
danny | ? | 03:33 |
mneptok | lugnut64: that ... would be the problem | 03:33 |
crwlr | danny: you gotta be more specific | 03:34 |
jrib | danny: like R ? | 03:34 |
mneptok | lugnut64: you cannot update without an Internet connection | 03:34 |
crwlr | danny: stats for what? | 03:34 |
lugnut64 | i am installing form a CD, the alternet install cd | 03:34 |
regeya | !google | danny | 03:34 |
ubotu | danny: Google is a very popular search engine: http://www.google.com - Google also has a Linux-specific search engine: http://google.com/linux | 03:34 |
JohnRobert | is it me, or is f-spot a massive memory/cpu hog? | 03:34 |
JohnRobert | It's doing nothing yet using 60% cpu time | 03:34 |
JohnRobert | and lots of ram | 03:34 |
mneptok | JohnRobert: are you new(ish) to Linux? | 03:35 |
JohnRobert | no | 03:35 |
danny | i used spss and stata on windows been searching the web for hour is there one for ubuntu | 03:35 |
bazhang | f-spot is not good imo JohnRobert | 03:35 |
lugnut64 | I am trying to update from the cd, nothing will happen | 03:35 |
mneptok | JohnRobert: then you understand how Linux allocates memory. | 03:35 |
_Andrew | I have had problems with f-spot.. It keeps messing up my photos | 03:35 |
bazhang | lugnut64: then get an internet connection | 03:35 |
JohnRobert | not really | 03:35 |
JohnRobert | but I have been using it a long time | 03:35 |
jrib | danny: look into R, it's a free S | 03:35 |
_Andrew | .. and crashing | 03:35 |
nickrud | this really sucks, I wanted to give opengeu a shot but the torrent is down | 03:35 |
mneptok | JohnRobert: Unix-y OSes tend to hand apps as much RAM as they can possibly handle, and only steal it back when other apps need memeory. | 03:36 |
JohnRobert | tbh, some mono apps are alright | 03:36 |
mneptok | *memory | 03:36 |
lugnut64 | i did at one time and that problem still happened | 03:36 |
JohnRobert | mneptok: makes sense, no point in wasting memory | 03:36 |
Oxente | ola | 03:36 |
mneptok | JohnRobert: hence, Firefox can be using 663MB of memory, then you launch GIMP, and FX's usage drops substantially | 03:36 |
JohnRobert | ah, it's behaiving a bit better now I've restarted it | 03:36 |
regeya | danny: I'm not meaning to be a smart aleck, but to tell you the truth the first two years I used linux the tool I used most, the resource I went to, was altavista (this was before google, mind) danny, I question whether you did: http://www.google.com/search?q=statistical+program+ubuntu | 03:36 |
Shpook | Okay, the problem was my own stupidity. Now, what is the best method to create a wireless network with a windows machine, via router? | 03:36 |
bazhang | http://linuxtracker.org/index.php?page=torrent-details&id=d8fe230d5bdee63fb5985ac4381909d4cf91d63b nickrud | 03:36 |
lugnut64 | the problem will happen internet or not | 03:36 |
JohnRobert | 'paging to the hdd a lot' would have been more clear | 03:37 |
thecrono | Does anyone know how to get Ark to use .part .rar archives, and to read passworded .rar files? I have 4 .part files and it won't unload them together, and i have a .rar with a password which Ark says it cannot read. | 03:37 |
mneptok | JohnRobert: be concerned when you have 2GB of memory, F-Spot open, and all your swap is in use ;) | 03:37 |
JohnRobert | I only have 768MB | 03:37 |
Starnestommy | thecrono: you may need to install unrar | 03:37 |
thecrono | i already did | 03:37 |
thecrono | and rar | 03:37 |
JohnRobert | now I've scrolled through some images, it's started again. | 03:37 |
jrib | danny: http://www.r-project.org/ is the website and 'r-base' is the relevant package to install | 03:37 |
thecrono | single unpassworded .rar files open fine | 03:37 |
lugnut64 | i guess... a clean install is the only thing left, thanks for hte help though | 03:37 |
JohnRobert | Is there anything like fspot (and don't say picassa)? | 03:37 |
weslote | wess | 03:37 |
nickrud | bazhang: thanks, another torrent on that site is bad I guess | 03:37 |
madman91 | hey guys | 03:37 |
thecrono | but parts/passworded ones do not | 03:38 |
JohnRobert | or gthumb | 03:38 |
r00723r0 | What's the channel for Gutsy? | 03:38 |
weslote | alguien que me pueda enseñar a crackear wep?? | 03:38 |
jrib | r00723r0: this one | 03:38 |
madman91 | does anyone know a good book that has many libraries and functions in it? (C language) I'm looking for a sort of collection of "man" pages | 03:38 |
weslote | tengo casi todo solo me falta asesoria | 03:38 |
r00723r0 | jrib, then what's the new ubuntu version? | 03:38 |
jrib | !hardy | r00723r0 | 03:38 |
ubotu | r00723r0: hardy is 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 - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 03:38 |
bazhang | no worries nickrud :} | 03:39 |
regeya | cripes, is that spanish, or portugues... | 03:39 |
ToastGuy | anyone know how to use audacity? | 03:39 |
nickrud | !pt | weslote | 03:39 |
ubotu | weslote: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 03:39 |
jrib | madman91: manpages-dev package will give you the manpages you want. If you actually want a book, you should ask in ##c | 03:39 |
nickrud | !es | weslote | 03:39 |
ubotu | weslote: Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 03:39 |
nickrud | (there, got them both) | 03:39 |
madman91 | jrib: ##c banned everyone | 03:39 |
ToastGuy | anyone know audacity? | 03:39 |
Munchkinguy | I'm having an interesting problem with Totem. When I type "totem whatever.ogg" in terminal, everything works fine. But When I double-click on that same media file, totem opens and promptly crashes. | 03:39 |
weslote | ok | 03:40 |
ToastGuy | it's a little unrelated, but it's a ubuntu app | 03:40 |
TallHunkDan | help my browser wont start - keeps on crashing | 03:40 |
jrib | madman91: I'm in ##c | 03:40 |
regeya | bwahaha | 03:40 |
mneptok | weslote: questions about cracking tools are not welcome on any Ubuntu IRC channel | 03:40 |
madman91 | jrib: how odd? ... hm.. | 03:40 |
TallHunkDan | heres the error msg : (gecko:7789): Pango-WARNING **: failed to create cairo scaled font, expect ugly output. the offending font is 'Tahoma 9' | 03:40 |
TallHunkDan | Segmentation fault (core dumped) | 03:40 |
Munchkinguy | ToastGuy: A little bit. | 03:40 |
madman91 | jrib: can you ask an admin why I am banned? | 03:40 |
regeya | oho, missed seeing that....meh | 03:40 |
TallHunkDan | how do i change it to the original default font without starting firefox? | 03:41 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: I just need to figure out how to increase the volume without clipping the audio | 03:41 |
nickrud | TallHunkDan: mv ~/.firefox ~/firefox-backup | 03:41 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: maybe do some better balancing? | 03:41 |
TallHunkDan | what does it do nickrud? | 03:41 |
mneptok | nickrud: you want ~/.mozilla ;) | 03:42 |
mneptok | TallHunkDan: that moves your current Firefox profile aside so you can create a new one from scratch at next launch | 03:42 |
nickrud | TallHunkDan: it moves your current firefox configuration to a backup , and mneptok is right, firefox exists under ~/.mozilla . So, mv ~/.mozilla ~/mozilla-backup (me is batting badly tonight) | 03:42 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: I think Equalization is the trick? | 03:43 |
DOOM_NX | goodnight :) | 03:43 |
=== Scunizi_ is now known as Scunizi |
mneptok | nickrud: i kinda have an unfair advantage ;) | 03:43 |
CygnusX1 | fuck | 03:43 |
nickrud | mneptok: I'll just guess what you maintain :0 | 03:43 |
mneptok | CygnusX1: no thanks. and stop that. | 03:43 |
bazhang | stop CygnusX1 | 03:43 |
CygnusX1 | sorry | 03:43 |
CygnusX1 | testing snort filter | 03:43 |
mneptok | nickrud: /whois :) | 03:44 |
CygnusX1 | Back to work I reckon | 03:44 |
jrib | madman91: I asked the channel if an op was available. In the meantime, maybe some C coders in #ubuntu-offtopic can suggest some books for you | 03:44 |
Darkmystere_ | Ok guys when i load a YouTube video and then select full screen i have to make it bigger and then if i click anything else it dissappears.. | 03:44 |
CygnusX1 | doh...have it set for port 80 only | 03:44 |
Darkmystere_ | it flaps back and then vanishes | 03:44 |
madman91 | thanks jrib | 03:44 |
madgoat | Hi, can anyone help with my Ubuntu install? | 03:44 |
Munchkinguy | ToastGuy: You mean increase the volume past the limit? | 03:44 |
bazhang | !ask | madgoat | 03:44 |
ubotu | madgoat: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 03:44 |
oov | list | 03:45 |
TallHunkDan | thanks guys. i got it now back | 03:45 |
Scunizi | Is a GeForce 8400gs PCIe compatible out of the box w/ Gutsy? | 03:45 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: No.... I just have a large difference between what is really LOUD and what is lower volume. | 03:45 |
madgoat | I did a fresh install, when i try to login on the main screen, it tells my that my username or pass is incorrect, I have reinstalled 3 times now, any help? | 03:45 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: But I think Equalization will work... | 03:45 |
ToastGuy | I need a more consistant volume | 03:45 |
nickrud | mneptok: I'd always figured an dist-upgrade needed an internet connection, nice to have 'official' confirmation :) | 03:46 |
mneptok | nickrud: i know it sounds crazy .... :) | 03:46 |
RobotGuy | madgoat: If you are trying to login as root, Ubuntu will not allow that. | 03:46 |
Munchkinguy | ToastGuy: Yep. Or you can do it manually. | 03:46 |
bkar | madgoat what was the user name you used? | 03:46 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: Manually would take a long time? | 03:47 |
madgoat | It was the one that it had me create in the setup | 03:47 |
nickrud | TallHunkDan: you can copy over your bookmarks.html from the saved config to the new one, it'll go under ~/.mozilla/firefox/<wierdtoken>.default | 03:47 |
Munchkinguy | ToastGuy: Yeah. | 03:47 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: How? | 03:47 |
madgoat | Which was not root | 03:47 |
Munchkinguy | Normalize is also helpful | 03:47 |
ToastGuy | Oh? | 03:48 |
bkar | madgoat-> if you have forgotten the password, reboot to safe mode and see if you can change the password from there | 03:48 |
MrObvious | MPlayer won't play files, it just loads and stops. Any ideas? This is in Firefox with all system updates. | 03:48 |
Veovis | k i have a really random question: on my site i have several icons at the bottom linking to various things, valid XHTML (link to validator) Valid CSS (ditto) Firefox (link to dl it) apache (link to their homepage) and a linux icon, but what should i link that to? what is the "home page" of linux | 03:48 |
Munchkinguy | Manually, you can use the Envelope Tool | 03:48 |
bazhang | www.linux.com | 03:49 |
dipu | hi there .. i am able to get high volume in debian compared to ubuntu .. is there something i need to check on my ubuntu gusty | 03:49 |
madgoat | How do I boot into safe mode? | 03:49 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: ah... that seemed to work. | 03:49 |
regeya | is it the weekend already? | 03:49 |
Munchkinguy | Great! | 03:50 |
mneptok | Veovis: you might want to use the FSF instead of Linux | 03:50 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: Normalize First, then increase the overall volume... | 03:50 |
icesword | what is fsf | 03:50 |
Veovis | free software foundation | 03:51 |
mneptok | http://www.fsf.org | 03:51 |
bazhang | free software foundation | 03:51 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: nahhh.... | 03:51 |
ToastGuy | errr.... | 03:51 |
bazhang | www.badvista.fsf.org | 03:51 |
mneptok | Veovis: i think they actually have web buttons and other branding to use | 03:51 |
regeya | dipu I'm assuming you're talking about sound volume...? wouldn't know, you could try doing a google search for your sound hardware accompanied with 'ubuntu' | 03:51 |
Munchkinguy | ToastGuy: Something gone wrong? | 03:51 |
ToastGuy | Munchkinguy: Well, it's just increasing some of the other parts too much... | 03:52 |
ToastGuy | It makes it fairly uniform | 03:52 |
madgoat | Is it the F8 key? | 03:52 |
mneptok | Veovis: http://www.fsf.org/associate/widget/ | 03:52 |
ToastGuy | So I'm clipping some of the louder parts | 03:52 |
Munchkinguy | Then Equalise is what you want, | 03:52 |
jnascimento | hey guys.. good night | 03:53 |
jorje_villafan | every so often when I click on something I get random lines usually staring from the upper left hand corner of the monitor. Sometimes they will just be blocks placed in random spots. | 03:53 |
ToastGuy | I think I'll just have to individually select some of the quieter areas and increase the volume | 03:53 |
dipu | yes regeya .. its the sound volume ..how do i know my sound hardware .. sorry i am not very good at this | 03:53 |
ToastGuy | Normalize just reduces everything but a certain percentage' | 03:53 |
mneptok | dipu: try running alsamixer and ensure nothing is muted | 03:54 |
peanuts132 | hard limiting is more effective then normalizing | 03:54 |
icesword | have a good night ,i am going to have lunch | 03:54 |
highvolt | /lusers | 03:54 |

ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about beos - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:56 |
mneptok | quittt: what about BeOS? other than "necrophilia is not attractive?" | 03:56 |
orbish | whenever we reboot ubuntu (gutsy), our resolutions are not where we want them, i prefer 1920x1200, he uses 1280x1024, not that that matters | 03:56 |
dipu | yes mneptok .. the PCM control was low (not muted) | 03:56 |
bkar | madgoat are you on a root prompt now? | 03:56 |
mneptok | dipu: excellent :) | 03:56 |
mattholimeau | does anyone know what config it is to make sure that the title bar of an ssh session is correctly updated to user@domain? | 03:56 |
quittt | mneptok, it is the best OS ever | 03:57 |

profx | kinda weird | 03:59 |
mneptok | quittt: in 1997? yes. today? no point. there are free alternatives that are far more feature complete | 03:59 |
crwlr | profx: i recommend saving it and then opening it from the saved file | 03:59 |
profx | cannot do that | 03:59 |
profx | like I said, weird | 03:59 |
crwlr | hrmmm... | 03:59 |
mneptok | quittt: but this is offtopic. we should take it to #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:59 |
quittt | 1997! | 03:59 |
crwlr | very much so... | 03:59 |
profx | its not a .pdf | 03:59 |

albert_kam | Hi people, i found many articles that teach us to remove the encrypted string after the first colon in /etc/shadow using rescue system, but in my experience, at some places, the encrypted string is just one char 'x'. Removing that and reboot later, su still asks for password. Can anyone enlighten me ? :) | 04:07 |
bitwiseshiftleft | so if i clear that, and then reconfigure it, wil it patch the kernel? | 04:07 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: run dpkg --configure -a on the server, maybe that will process any pending triggers | 04:07 |
madgoat | !tab bkar ? | 04:07 |
ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tab bkar ? - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:07 |

crwlr | yes, toastguy | 04:10 |
ToastGuy | hmmmm | 04:10 |
crwlr | both laptop and desktop have ubuntu 7.10 | 04:10 |
ToastGuy | I know it's all obvious... but you want to get that out of the way | 04:11 |
madgoat | bkar: prefix like this? | 04:11 |
crwlr | well, i'm about to just reinstall both with a fresh install, toastguy | 04:11 |
bkar | madgoat yes now i can see you | 04:11 |
ToastGuy | i doubt that it's something to do with it being a laptop as opposed to anything else. | 04:11 |
madgoat | bkar: ok I am in the console what would I type now? | 04:11 |
jnascimento | hey guys.. i would like to know how could i use upstart to stop all webservices on my notebook as soon as i unplug it from power switch | 04:11 |
ToastGuy | crwlr: if you can afford to do that.... Go for it. | 04:11 |
bkar | madgoat passwd | 04:12 |
crwlr | toastguy: you bet. got all my files backed up on my desktop on a seperate drive | 04:12 |
madgoat | bkar: maybe I am not in the right console, should i be in grub? | 04:12 |
crwlr | toastguy: and i am downloading opengeu for the desktop so it's gonna be just a clean install for the laptop | 04:13 |
ToastGuy | crwlr: I'm not best for advice speaking specifics | 04:13 |
talcite | hey guys, I'm having a really puzzling problem with my apache server | 04:13 |
bkar | madgoat not in grub, are you in a console? | 04:13 |
talcite | I'm trying to host a directory directly | 04:13 |
talcite | files and all | 04:13 |
ToastGuy | crwlr: I'm relatively new to ubuntu | 04:13 |
crwlr | toastguy: you will get the hang of it. i've been using it for about a year and i love it over winblows, so enjoy it! | 04:14 |
talcite | so I've got the default /default-apache directory and the index.html with "it works!" in it | 04:14 |
talcite | I remove the index.html but nothing changes on the site! | 04:14 |
madgoat | bkar: i booted holding f8 for safe mode, then hit c for console and brings me to a grub command prompt | 04:14 |
ToastGuy | crwlr: Well, I simply need to understand more about ubuntu... | 04:14 |
crwlr | toastguy: if you enjoy ubuntu, then check out opengeu, it's a nice enlightenment version | 04:14 |
Heygabe | Opengeu? | 04:15 |
ToastGuy | crwlr: ok | 04:15 |
crwlr | toastguy: only problems i have with ubuntu...nothing except twinview LOL | 04:15 |

adrock358 | I'm not trying to be a computer guru nor am I pretending to be. I have to run live CD because I can't get my wireless going right now. And I don't want to either. I'm tired. And all I want to do is download some stuff before I go to bed. I don't want to do anything else besides that, so other advice is completely, %100 uneccessary and redundant. Can anyone tell me the command to mount my HD so I can write to it? Thanks. | 04:16 |
nickrud | enlightenment 16's sliding windows seduced me to linux | 04:16 |
crwlr | friggen google os! | 04:16 |

Heygabe | GreenOs, crwler. | 04:16 |
Heygabe | Not Google. Green. | 04:16 |
nickrud | erm, backgrounds | 04:16 |

bitwiseshiftleft | thanks for asking :-) | 04:18 |

bitwiseshiftleft | same erro | 04:19 |
bitwiseshiftleft | r | 04:19 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: hm, is that the exact error message? | 04:19 |
adrock358 | blah blah blah | 04:19 |
madgoat | hmm it doesn't see the user i created, this ubuntu was part of the buildix package | 04:19 |
LibertyShadow | What is the best command to check my temperatures... I left my computer on for 6 hours and it feels kind of hot | 04:19 |
bitwiseshiftleft | the exact error message is "E: " followed by that | 04:19 |
madgoat | bkar: hmm it doesn't see the user i created, this ubuntu was part of the buildix package | 04:19 |
adrock358 | bloo bloo bloo bloo blah blah | 04:19 |
adrock358 | madgoat goat, want to hook a nigger up? | 04:19 |
bkar | madgoat i dont know what buildix is, | 04:20 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: try sudo apt-get install --reinstall python-central python-apt | 04:20 |
crwlr | adrock358: please...ease up on the terminology | 04:20 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: but if this doesn't clear easily, you might want to have your provider reinstall your os | 04:20 |
bitwiseshiftleft | nickrud: crap... there seem to be about 6 million unmet dependencies | 04:20 |
bkar | thank you | 04:21 |
bitwiseshiftleft | nickrud: it's not quite so simple :-/ | 04:21 |
crwlr | props to amaranth | 04:21 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: thought it might not be, but figured I'd throw it out there | 04:21 |
bitwiseshiftleft | this is a box owned by a defunct project i was on. it's across the country and nobody has physical access to it right now, although i should be able to get access to it in a few days | 04:21 |
bitwiseshiftleft | of course, the nice thing is, if it does go down, nobody notices | 04:22 |
bitwiseshiftleft | i figured it was irresponsible to leave it up and unpatched though | 04:22 |

highvolt | @rycole: its very simple | 04:23 |
soldats | ObNockShus, #winehq has a lot of experts in wine | 04:23 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: you could try reinstalling ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard , might pull some of those in | 04:24 |
bitwiseshiftleft | rycole: you don't need to get the source, compile it and all that | 04:24 |
highvolt | Do you have ubuntu installed at the moment? | 04:24 |
crwlr | son9524: used it a few times long ago, didn't like it too well. | 04:24 |
DoubleDew | anyone using apache behind a router? | 04:24 |
rycole | yes, i'm ssh'd into ubuntu | 04:24 |

nickrud | rycole: sudo apt-get install apache2 | 04:24 |
ObNockShus | ty soldats. I'll try there. | 04:24 |
rycole | ah, and that'll get it and install it, without leaving a bunch of source code? :P | 04:24 |
highvolt | rycole: yes. | 04:24 |
soldats | ObNockShus, but you still may ask your question here. someone may be able to help but if it pertains to games winehq is your best bet | 04:25 |
victor__ | i've downloaded a moive but the 'down them all" extension of iceweasel failed to join the 130+ chunks, how can they be joined manully? | 04:25 |
nickrud | rycole: yes, it's just the binaries and config and support files, no source or stray object files | 04:25 |
bitwiseshiftleft | nickrud: no dice. is there a way to uninstall everything but a minimal core, then reinstall? | 04:25 |
son9524_ | Well Ally ou really have to do is use the tab feature in terminal to join multible channels and servers without much worrie | 04:25 |
bitwiseshiftleft | or install ubuntu in a chroot, and then pivot root? | 04:25 |
rycole | ok, awesome. | 04:25 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: not simply, and pivot root could work. I haven't done that since linux from scratch so my rust would be several inches thick | 04:26 |
son9524_ | What where your Problems chryss | 04:26 |
bitwiseshiftleft | nickrud: ok, well, thanks for the help | 04:26 |

I checked my WAN ip from my router config, i set up port forwarding for ports 80 and 443, when i point my browser to my WAN ip i get my homepage, but when i had a friend try they get nothing | 04:31 |
crwlr | wutz: you may have to edit your xorg.conf and tell it which driver to use, then use system>admin>screens and change the display settings | 04:31 |
nickrud | !sound | nethbar | 04:31 |
ubotu | nethbar: 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 | 04:31 |

crwlr | wutz: am just using the restricted drivers on my 6600 | 04:33 |

Zorlin | Hey, is posting forum links in here against the rules? [The issue is too long to type without spamming] | 04:47 |
Zorlin | [i mean, spamming IRC] | 04:47 |
crwlr | negative, zorlin | 04:47 |
tritium | crwlr: not much. You? | 04:47 |
Zorlin | crwlr: Thanks. | 04:47 |

Zorlin | I have an issue with partitioning + booting Vista, the thread is at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4195216 | 04:48 |
pajamian | nm, found it, and effects are turned off already. | 04:48 |
crwlr | tritium: checking out opengeu...still downloading right now. their site is SHLOOOOWWWW! | 04:48 |
Zorlin | Pretty simple issue, but I imagine a fix might be complex =( | 04:48 |
Zorlin | tritium: Your welcome. And thanks :) | 04:48 |
tritium | crwlr: remind me what we were working on last night. Was it nvidia twinview? | 04:48 |
Jack_Sparrow | Zorlin: Please tell us the nature of the problem and if the link is pertainent.. then post it | 04:48 |
DoubleDew | ok, here is a question, why does my router say my WAN ip is one thing while www.mywanip.com says it is something else? and which is correct? | 04:48 |
tritium | crwlr: I'm not familiar with opengeu. | 04:49 |
Zorlin | Jack_Sparrow: Does "I have an issue with partitioning + booting Vista, the thread is at: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4195216" cover it? | 04:49 |
DoubleDew | and www.mywanip.com changes | 04:49 |
crwlr | tritium: yes, but i gave up on it. spent 5 hours trying to figure it out. opengeu...google it would ya lol.. hard to explain | 04:49 |
Zorlin | And yes, the link has the information on the problem. | 04:49 |
tritium | crwlr: did you read Chap. 13 of /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx-new/README.txt.gz ? | 04:49 |
crwlr | tritium: yes and i tried it with no luck. think it's my lcd...it's a gem and i haven't seen anybody post about it | 04:50 |
tritium | crwlr: ah, sorry. | 04:50 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> what do you think is your wan ip address? | 04:50 |
crwlr | tritium: opengeu is google-able by googleing geubuntu | 04:51 |
Jack_Sparrow | Zorlin: gparted livecd | 04:51 |
DoubleDew | the one my router displays | 04:51 |
Zorlin | Jack_Sparrow: Unfortunately, no blank CD's lying around. I do have blank DVDs, but cannot burn them without a bit of work [hooking up my external dvd burner is hard, gotta free up a powerpoint =(] | 04:52 |
tritium | crwlr: ah, I see | 04:52 |
rycole | sudo isn't asking for my password anymore, and it's also not executing apt-get... | 04:52 |
crwlr | tritium: yes, very nice, eh? | 04:52 |
Zorlin | Jack_Sparrow: Do you think the gparted livecd would manage it? I have the ISO already. | 04:52 |
Jack_Sparrow | Zorlin: It should handle it just fine | 04:52 |
tritium | crwlr: well, it's not my cup of tea, but if it suits you, then great. | 04:52 |
Zorlin | Jack_Sparrow: Thanks for the help, I'll try n get back to you | 04:52 |
DoubleDew | bkar: i assume the WAN ip my router displays is more reliable than that of a website? | 04:52 |

ongnon | I'm trying to install asterisk on ubuntu 7.10 but couldn't install cvs | 04:55 |
crwlr | alright! 9 minutes left on the download. tritium, im going for a smoke and then i will be back in. | 04:55 |
tritium | okay, crwlr | 04:55 |
Jack_Sparrow | rycole: That isnt a good thing. WHat was recently installed | 04:55 |
tritium | ongnon: you couldn't install the cvs ubuntu package, or asterisk from cvs? | 04:56 |
pajamian | I think it's waiting for something to timeout when I click the log off icon while running top nothing jumps to the top and starts hogging CPU or RAM. | 04:56 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> wrong, if you did not know yet, 10.x.x.x range (not all) are not routable.. | 04:56 |
ongnon | i have read how to add repositiory in the docs but it doens't help much | 04:56 |
ongnon | i'm following a asterisk guru guide and it said i have to install cvs package | 04:56 |
DoubleDew | bkar: how do i find my ip so that i can access my server from the internet? | 04:56 |
tritium | ongnon: you should just install the ubuntu asterisk packages | 04:56 |
ongnon | apt-get install asterisk ? | 04:57 |
Jack_Sparrow | pajamian: What all did you install or try , and what were you trying to fix or do in the beginning | 04:57 |
unop | bkar, all of 10.x.x.x are routable, just not outside of a private network | 04:57 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> exactly these are the range 10.1.1.1 - 10.255.255.254 ..yes non-routable in the internet for clarity | 04:57 |
tritium | ongnon: yes, use sudo | 04:57 |
tritium | !info asterisk | ongnon | 04:57 |
ubotu | ongnon: asterisk (source: asterisk): Open Source Private Branch Exchange (PBX). In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.4.10~dfsg-1 (gutsy), package size 2033 kB, installed size 5264 kB | 04:58 |
cobb28 | quick question: i am going to order a e8400 or a q6600. will ubuntu make use of all 4 cores or be better with a higher clocked dual core? | 04:58 |
unop | bkar, you forgot 10.0.x.x ? | 04:58 |
rycole | ugh, sudo isn't executing apt-get, is there a catch? lol. | 04:58 |
ongnon | yup but there are some dependencies | 04:58 |
tritium | ongnon: naturally | 04:58 |
rycole | it doesn't appear to be doing anything. | 04:58 |
ongnon | asterisk: Depends: libct3 (>= 0.63-1) but it is not installable | 04:58 |
ongnon | Depends: libgsm1 (>= 1.0.10) but it is not installable | 04:58 |

Jack_Sparrow | rycole: That isnt a good thing. WHat was recently installed, anything from outside the official repos? | 04:58 |
FloodBot2 | ongnon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:58 |
rycole | jack: nope | 04:59 |
bkar | unop umm those i believe are routable | 04:59 |
bkar | i cant remember..heh | 04:59 |
madsy_ | Does ftp or pftp take username as a parameter? I can't find it mentioned in man. | 04:59 |
ongnon | Package libct3 is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 04:59 |
ongnon | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 04:59 |
ongnon | is only available from another source | 04:59 |
ongnon | oops | 04:59 |
ongnon | got to go to lunch :) i'll be back later | 04:59 |
unop | bkar, nope -- all of 10.0.0.0/8 is private and routable | 04:59 |
Jack_Sparrow | rycole: Have you been running gui programs as root, is this a real install or some virtual or wubi version | 04:59 |
pajamian | bah, got disconnected ... | 05:00 |
bkar | unop okay | 05:00 |
DoubleDew | bkar: websites will tell me my external ip is 75.1.30.2... | 05:00 |
tritium | ongnon: it's in the repos. Refresh your package listing | 05:00 |
pajamian | Jack_Sparrow: In answer to your question: ok, well I installed gutsy from the alternate install CD (I just like that better, the install seems to run faster) ... and then I ran the updates and then I removed evolution and installed thunderbird and ubuntu restricted extra from synaptic in one shot and decided at that point I'd best reboot and see how it was going and the problem started occuring when it came back up then. | 05:00 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> i agree with that one | 05:00 |
crwlr | im back | 05:00 |
Gary_inNYC | any word on when flash plugin will be available? i just did a fresh install of gutsy | 05:01 |
crwlr | gary_innyc: should be one with firefox | 05:01 |
Jack_Sparrow | pajamian: No reason at all for that system to be acting up at that point | 05:01 |
unop | Gary_inNYC, you can always manually install it | 05:01 |
CineScope | there is a thread in the forums with an updated package | 05:01 |
crwlr | gary_innyc: just go to "get addons" in the tools menu and go to extensions | 05:01 |
sagar | i have a package (libgtk2.0-0) which i installed from the wiki page about "global menu bar" but now i can't remove it! when i try to "force version" in synaptic, it waits a while, adn then changes the version back to the hacked one | 05:02 |
DoubleDew | ok here is a question....will MAC filtering affect my issue? | 05:02 |
vincent_ | Hello! Does anyone know a way to install 32 bit apps on a 64 bit distro? | 05:02 |
Jack_Sparrow | pajamian: Sorry but did you make any changes to the repos before you updated. | 05:02 |
pajamian | Jack_Sparrow: yeah, but it is, heh ... Next on my list was going to be installing flash (from the tarball since the synaptic installer doesn't work right now), and a few other bits. | 05:02 |
crwlr | plugins i mean, gary_innyc | 05:02 |
pajamian | Jack_Sparrow: only to uncheck the CD so it would go to the net for everything. | 05:03 |
Jack_Sparrow | pajamian: I would not continue.. I would reinstall the live cd | 05:03 |
Jack_Sparrow | alternate | 05:03 |
pajamian | ok, I'll try again, and not install so much at once after the update, heh. | 05:03 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> whats this mac filtering about? if you dont know your ip address, you're getting yourself into advance topic? | 05:03 |
Jack_Sparrow | pajamian: just those two things didnt cause that problem | 05:04 |
keram | sorry | 05:04 |
keram | i asked this question a little while ago | 05:04 |
keram | but i didnt see the answer (if one was posted) | 05:04 |
keram | what is a good svn client? | 05:04 |
pajamian | then I'm at a loss, I just replaced both the RAM and HDD in this box too, so it's starting to look like a bad mobo which I really don't want to have to face at this time, I've sunk enough money into this already :-( | 05:04 |
keram | that will allow me to use a cli interface | 05:05 |
Flannel | keram: svn | 05:05 |
keram | apt-get install svn // no package 'svn' found | 05:05 |
bkar | marking time... re-installing ubuntu 7.10 on virtual box | 05:05 |
Flannel | keram: the package name is 'subversion' | 05:05 |
keram | oh | 05:05 |
keram | that makes sense | 05:05 |
keram | thanks | 05:05 |
Nasarias | Hey, how do I give my self perms in a root folder like /var/www ? | 05:05 |
bkar | Nasarias-> hey have you even try to read about linux permissions? | 05:06 |
Jack_Sparrow | !chmod | 05:06 |
ubotu | An explanation of how files and directories are organized on Ubuntu, and how they can be manipulated, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview | 05:06 |
pajamian | my only other possibility that I can think of is maybe one of the updated packages was corrupt or installed corrupt, but I guess if that were the case it wouldn't pass the checksum. | 05:06 |
Nasarias | Ah, roger bkar, thanks | 05:07 |
DoubleDew | bkar: right now i have my router to MAC filter....so no computers but the ones with specific MAC addresses i designated can access my network | 05:07 |
DoubleDew | bkar: but will this affect someone trying to access my server via my router's external IP | 05:07 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> you better understand that filtering concept, understand from which side are you filtering or both | 05:08 |
ganesh | how to solve the grub problem when i make a partition & copied the filesystem from live cd | 05:08 |

rycole | i don't have any xwindows things installed. | 05:08 |
DoubleDew | bkar: that is my question...I assume its only a filter for those trying to access my internal network | 05:08 |
Jack_Sparrow | ganesh: You just copied over the cd, you didnt run it and install it? | 05:08 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> am kind of hard on you, i just want you to realize what you are doing, ill guide you though if you are really stuck | 05:09 |
qubits | yeah. I knew there'd be a ton of peeps here | 05:09 |
Zorlin | Jack_Sparrow: I might be a bit longer to check if it works... I copied the wrong ISO and just realised I don't have it. Downloading it now @ 154KB/s =\ | 05:09 |

crwlr | qubits: just ask | 05:10 |

DoubleDew | bkar: i realize my knowledge of the OSI model and the internet protocol suite is a bit lax, but that is a future topic for me after getting this web server set up | 05:11 |
Zorlin | Qubits: What is your question? I'll try my best =p | 05:11 |
qubits | well I need grub to jump to the bootloader on hd1,0 | 05:11 |
albert_kam | Hello, any good documentation that explains /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow ? | 05:11 |
Zorlin | What OS are you trying to boot o.o | 05:11 |
qubits | it used to be a windows mbr but its changed to a raw fbsd loader | 05:11 |
madsy_ | Is it possible to make ftp look for .netrc somewhere else than the home directory? | 05:11 |
qubits | windows | 05:12 |
qubits | but i dont think its a windows mbr anymore | 05:12 |
headlice | test | 05:12 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> get away from filtering then, dont need that to get a webser working | 05:12 |
qubits | its boot0cfg | 05:12 |
qubits | which then can load windows | 05:12 |
Zorlin | Qubits: Windows MBR loads the windows bootloader. :P | 05:12 |
qubits | or fbsd | 05:12 |
Zorlin | GRUB does the same with an entry. Hang on, pm me | 05:12 |
qubits | Zorlin that drive can still bot windows i've seen it | 05:12 |
till_ | any ideas where to get flex++ parser for ubuntu without compiling the stuff of course :) ? | 05:12 |
PKdoR | I got problems with grub not booting correct partition | 05:12 |
albert_kam | !password | 05:12 |
ubotu | Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 05:12 |
Linuxishawt | I have a quick permission question, I have a credintials file for mount a smb share, what I chmod the cred file to? | 05:12 |
Zorlin | Qubits: I know :P | 05:12 |
DoubleDew | bkar: i am filtering (with router) just to further protect my home wireless network | 05:12 |
qubits | boot0cfg jumps to it | 05:12 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> get away from filtering then, dont need that to get a webserver* working | 05:12 |
qubits | hold on | 05:12 |
albert_kam | !sudo | 05:13 |
ubotu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 05:13 |

bitwiseshiftleft | nickrud: so i tried debootstrap... rebooting now... i bet it doesn't come back up, but it was a valiant try | 05:15 |
albert_kam | crwlr: Thank you. Actually i'm more interested with the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow, because i'm trying to troubleshoot one of my friend's problem as she's forgotten her root password. I tried booting from cd, mounting the /etc, try to remove the encrypted thing in /etc/password, so that it results with root::.......... , but still, after reboot, su still asks for password | 05:15 |
nickrud | bitwiseshiftleft: I'm crossing my fingers | 05:15 |
=== madsy_ is now known as Madsy |
crwlr | hmmm....interesting, albert_kam | 05:16 |
DoubleDew | bkar: but isn't the point of port forwarding to override the firewall, and also, i have not mentioned, but i did put my server as a computer in the DMZ on my router settings | 05:16 |
albert_kam | crwlr: I know there are other ways, but i'm more intrigued with this approach :) Hence, i'm seeking information about the /etc/passwd and /etc/passwd .. | 05:16 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> well first thing first, is your webserver working? | 05:17 |
nickrud | albert_kam: after you've replaced the encrypted thing in /etc/shadow, boot into recovery mode and set a root password there | 05:17 |
DoubleDew | yes...i can open a browser and navigate to the internal 192.168.0.102 and it works....i can also use the 10.3.4.114 ip that my router gives as the WAN ip and it works (for me from within my network) | 05:18 |
ObNockShus | where do I go to learn the basics (commands etc) of linux? I have the apt-get part down sort of. I need to learn the command structure and how to compile. | 05:18 |
nickrud | ObNockShus: tldp.org has some good handbooks on commands and bash. | 05:19 |
albert_kam | nickrud: Hi, i tried that, but it still asks for password. The strange thing when i'm removing the encrypted string in /etc/shadow is that it only contains one 'x' char, it was like root:x:........ And in the examples that i googled, it isnt just x, it's something like root:asfdasdXasf: :) | 05:19 |
ObNockShus | ty nickrud | 05:19 |

bkar | DoubleDew-> umm. okay, we already establish 10.x.x.x is not routable on the internet right? | 05:20 |
nickrud | albert_kam: yes, the odd stuff is the hashed password. I've replaced that with * and been able to get right into the recovery console | 05:20 |
crwlr | wow...now i gotta copy opengeu from my laptop to my desktop...and that's taking forever... | 05:20 |
Flannel | albert_kam: Is this Ubuntu? and does your friend ever remember setting a password for root? | 05:20 |
albert_kam | nickrud: So, here's the step that i did. I boot from cd, mount my partition, vi the mounted /etc/shadow, removing the 'x' char, !wq, reboot, boot from harddisk, su still asks for password. | 05:20 |
DoubleDew | bkar: yes, im am just saying exactly what has worked for me so far | 05:20 |
albert_kam | nickrud: thank you !! | 05:20 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> the big question, can please elaborate on how is your network laidout? firewalls if any? managed switches? | 05:21 |

qubits | Hey, since I put a freebsd bootloader on my windows mbr chainloader standard entried for windows dont work | 05:25 |
wj32 | i don't know... | 05:25 |
qubits | the drive that has the freebsd bootloader knows where the windows bootloader is | 05:25 |
pajamian | that's untested, but ... | 05:25 |
qubits | so its still there, what kind of entry can i give grub to boot the windows partition directly | 05:25 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> can your webserver reach the internet? ping? browse, etc.. | 05:25 |

jonathan_ | ;) | 05:25 |
DoubleDew | bkar: yes it can | 05:25 |
qubits | i could probably afford running a windows cd repair on the bootloader since i actually use another drive to boot | 05:25 |
jonathan_ | or can give me a starting point for troubleshooting? | 05:25 |
qubits | i need those two drives in there because windows was installed to D: | 05:26 |
qubits | C: has grub | 05:26 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> go ahead and do the port forwarding and NAT'ing on your router so it can pass back and forth the traffice from the webserver | 05:26 |
Zorlin | Qubits: Super GRUB Disk, http://supergrub.forjamari.linex.org/?section=download | 05:26 |
DoubleDew | bkar: NATing? | 05:26 |
qubits | whats it do | 05:26 |
Zorlin | free, ~5MB... | 05:26 |
Zorlin | its a GRUB troubleshooting/fixing tool | 05:26 |
pajamian | ahhh, I got it backwards, it's: perl -le 'print crypt("mypass", q{$1$xxxxx$});' | 05:26 |
nickrud | pajamian: heh. I could never get a hash, forgot about init=/bin/sh (stupid eh?) and in an inspired bit of luck tried the * since it's supposed to lock out the password, and recovery is supposed to work with a locked password. | 05:26 |
Zorlin | especially useful in dual-boot scenarios. Not sure, but it might have an option to do what you're trying to do | 05:27 |
pajamian | that will return an encrypted form for "mypass" | 05:27 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> it may be done automatically by your router, but you forgot what I said about non-routable ip address on the internet? | 05:27 |
mage | quinn: based on model numbers I'd guess i530n is a better bet, but I dont know personally, but maybe you can check through sales websites which one matches yours closer? | 05:27 |
DoubleDew | bkar: port forward is already set up as per a tutorial i have read.... forward both ports 80/443 to 80/443 | 05:27 |
ribo | US primary mirrors going really slo for anyone else? | 05:27 |
pajamian | nickrud: well, here ya go, the password hash for "mypass": $1$xxxxx$fUYW2Kr.sorUtPYD6LGMz0 | 05:27 |
pajamian | you can always plug that in and just use mypass | 05:27 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> okay, lets test your web server, let me hit it | 05:28 |
* nickrud squirrels it way for a non-ubuntu install some day | 05:28 |
pajamian | then of course change it to something better once you manage to log in. | 05:28 |
nickrud | pajamian: I'd never have tried perl, I have an aversion to languages that uses punctuation as verbs | 05:28 |
qubits | asm ftw | 05:29 |
pajamian | hehehe, I'm a programmer and specialize in perl, so it's the language I picked, plus it has a command line interface that lets you do cool little things like that. | 05:29 |

bkar | DoubleDew-> your ap/router is refusing | 05:30 |
albert_kam | pajamian: how do you generate $1$xxxxx$fUYW2Kr.sorUtPYD6LGMz0 ? | 05:30 |
nickrud | pajamian: if you want a write once read never language, there's your candidate :) | 05:30 |
pajamian | I gave you the commadn earlier: perl -le 'print crypt("mypass", q{$1$xxxxx$});' | 05:31 |
DoubleDew | are there apache settings to allow for external connections? im guessing this is transparent to apache if port forwarding works properly | 05:31 |
pajamian | you can plug somethign else into that command for the salt and the password if you want. | 05:31 |

pajamian | nickrud: perl is one of those languages taht looks ghastly at first glance but when you get used to it you don't ever want to leave it. | 05:33 |
jonathan_ | Can nobody give me even a starting place to start troubleshooting sound? | 05:33 |
rekon | !sound | 05:33 |

bkar | Madsy-> i suggest you write a lil script | 05:40 |
Madsy | I know the standard ftp client supports it, via the .netrc file macros | 05:40 |
bkar | DoubleDew-> sometimes its listen.conf file where you set them | 05:40 |
Linuxishawt | DoubleDew: Also when you connec to your WAN IP and you can see it, that just means that your router is working, chances are your ISP is blocking port 80 | 05:40 |

jonathan_ | yeah.. didn't think so | 05:44 |
jonathan_ | so long and thanks for all the fish | 05:44 |
Linuxishawt | DoubleDew: some ISP's will block 80 until you "Upgrage" to a business acount | 05:44 |
Madsy | bkar: It doesn't seem to work. Say, "user" or "nlist" are treated as commands on the local side. They are not sent to stdin | 05:44 |

randon | I think Grub sees only the bios drives, so it sees hd0 and hd1, so while it finds linux on hd1, once it's booting up the device is now the 3rd drive (sdc) and it fails. | 05:55 |

qubits | allthoug the bootloader on that drive can load windows | 06:03 |
qubits | but it boots with C: as its system drive | 06:03 |

Linuxishawt | DoubleDew: that's the issue right there | 06:03 |
Linuxishawt | DoubleDew: your ISP is using private address' so you're going through two NAT boxes | 06:04 |

qubits | since the grub on the first disk has all the capabilty i need | 06:10 |
qubits | can load freebsd and if it will load the windows drive then im fine | 06:11 |
pajamian | qubits: I honestly don't know, you can replace the boot sector with fdisk /mbr just make sure you run it on the correct drive. I would make sure the 2nd drive has a windows boot sector on it instead of grub. | 06:11 |
pajamian | but I really don't know, I haven't done it on two drives like that before, and it's been a few years since I ditched windows all together. | 06:12 |
KarrotCake | jones: have you tried xterm? is it just xfce4-terminal killing xfce? | 06:12 |
KarrotCake | jones: if it is you could always reinstalling the package | 06:13 |
pajamian | what you may want to do is fdisk /mbr the first disk just as a test, it will wipe out grub from the boot sector but you can put it back later. Then you will be able to see if windows can at least boot itself. | 06:13 |
jones | karrotcake: more details, i have ubuntu installed and it is fine just a litle slow on the old machine. i instaled xubuntu and when i choose terminal it goes to a black screen then back to the login screen. i am sorry i dont really understand ur question | 06:14 |

KarrotCake | jones: ah sorry i though you were talking about opening in a terminal while in xfce | 06:15 |
ronino | hello | 06:16 |
n3kr0n | hi! someone can explain me what <string*>* means? are this an pointer to pointer string? in C++, I do not undestood | 06:16 |
zack | crwlr, all i can do there is change the idle time | 06:16 |
KarrotCake | jones: in that case its do to with gdm, the program that manages logging in and loading xfce or gnome | 06:16 |
randon | anyone ever install linux on a 3-drive system with linux on the 3rd drive, and the first two drives in a [fake] raid0 configuration? | 06:16 |
crwlr | zack: i checked...its not...but i use vlc media player and it plays the movie all the way thru without the screensaver poppin on | 06:16 |
zack | crwlr, I will try using vlc player i cant really remember which player i was using when it happened but maybe that will work, thanks | 06:17 |
jones | karrotcake: i am able to use everything else in xubuntu. i can browse and everything. the gnome side works no prob at all. any ideas on a fix for this. i would like to use xubuntu because it is a lot faster but it is worthless without a terminal | 06:17 |
crwlr | should with ease | 06:18 |
pajamian | it is in the screensaver prefs, there's a box for "activate screensaver when computer is idle", just uncheck it. | 06:18 |
zack | peace ooout | 06:18 |
KarrotCake | jones: oh ok, well something you could try, is to go into synaptic, and search and install xterm | 06:19 |
KarrotCake | jones: then run that; you might need to create a shortcut to load it | 06:19 |
pajamian | huh? surely xubuntu comes with a terminal app? | 06:20 |
jones | karrotcake: so is it an issue w/ the terminal that is installed in xfce or some other type of conflict? | 06:20 |
compy | so if i have closed vlc with a movie playing but i still hear sound... howh do i force quit it... i do not see it playing on my desktop though | 06:21 |
KarrotCake | jones: well im not sure, id try a different terminal first. xfce comes with a terminal xfce4-terminal which im assuming is what your running when you click on your terminal icon | 06:21 |
janke | anyone run etqw 1.4 on ubuntu here? | 06:21 |
janke | sound doesn't work for me with 1.4, but did with the last version of etqw (1.2 i think) | 06:22 |
janke | i don't know what could have caused it and would like some assistance :) | 06:22 |
possum_ | Hello =) | 06:22 |
janke | hi :) | 06:22 |
crwlr | zack: i watch .divx movies at night when i'm off to bed and it stays on so i think that is ur fix. i didnt have to configure anything. my screensaver idle time is 10 mins so u should be golden with that. | 06:22 |
qubits | crwlr | 06:23 |
crwlr | yes | 06:23 |
possum_ | I have installed fresh ubuntu 7.10... then all updates through synaptic.... then because i wanted kde i installed kubuntu-desktop and everything seemed fin in both kde and gnome. I decided that io wanted to try out xfce so i used synaptic to install xubuntu-desktop and now gnome is all screwy and wont let me brouse storeage drives in file manager and some other bugs like so selection rectangle with mouse etc. | 06:24 |
debatem1 | quick question about the ubuntu desktop course, I am cto of a small business that must do some training for our clients, is there a way to get the desktop course under a license that would permit that sort of use? | 06:25 |
jones | karrotcake: it shows in synaptic that xterm is already installed. is this because i have gnome loaded as well? | 06:25 |
possum_ | when i installed xubuntu-desktop it wanted to remove "totem-gstreamer" so i let it but thats all | 06:25 |
crwlr | qubits??? | 06:25 |
mikebot | Is anyone else having problems with Miro constantly crashing when searching for videos and/or know how to solve it? | 06:26 |
bkar | debatem1-> you want to license what? | 06:26 |
KarrotCake | jones: ah yeah, its already installed then. try creating a shortcut that runs that and see what happens. | 06:26 |
jones | karrotcake: ok i created a launcher and am able launch the xterm. | 06:26 |
debatem1 | bkar: we need to train our clients to do basic tasks in ubuntu. the desktop training guide is great, and we want to use it, but its licensed CC-NC. is there a way to purchase a copy under a different license, or... | 06:27 |
KarrotCake | jones: cool, so id try removing and reinstalling xfce4-terminal, and if that doesnt work id try running xfce4-terminal outside of xubuntu and see if you get any error messages other than it not finding a display | 06:28 |
KarrotCake | jones: thats if you dont like xterm | 06:28 |
crwlr | who was telling me that geubuntu is called opengeu??? | 06:28 |
bkar | debatem1-> oh, you have to call them and find out | 06:28 |
dn4 | what is a good visual traceroute program? | 06:28 |
dn4 | I wanna see the traceroute on maps like googlemaps | 06:29 |
debatem1 | bkar: yeah, i figured, just thought id ask here first | 06:29 |
jones | karrotcake: i went into synaptics and marked xfce4-terminal for reinstallation. it went through the process but still crashes when i select it in the menu | 06:29 |
timandtom | Is there a way to make certain wireless networks have priority over others in roaming mode? | 06:29 |
timandtom | I keep automatically connecting to my neighbors network, but I don't want to do that unless mine is down. | 06:30 |
debatem1 | bkar: thanks for your help | 06:30 |
bkar | timandtom-> dont use roaming, put a preference on your essid | 06:31 |
possum_ | does anyone have any idea as to why xubuntu-desktop would render gnome nearly unusable? | 06:31 |
bkar | timandtom-> you can set it permanently to acquire your essid and not the neighbors, in /etc/network/interfaces file | 06:31 |
jones | karrotcake: i even tried to launch the xfce terminal from within xterm and it crahses. i was hoping i would get a output saying what was happening but no. i do not really have a preference of terminal i am just more curious as to why it crashes the entire DE | 06:32 |
KarrotCake | jones: you could be running into this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-terminal/+bug/114124 (seems to be happening on older hardware)...some people are saying you should change your colour depth. | 06:32 |
jones | karrotcake: will that effect my gnome setup? it is older hardware. a 833mhz w/ 256 ram | 06:33 |
soldats | jones, no | 06:33 |
soldats | jones, i have what you have my color depth is very low and i experience no problems | 06:34 |
jones | karrotcake/soldats: i am looking now for xorg.conf and am going to change the depth. | 06:35 |
KarrotCake | jones: hmm i would have thought it WOULD affect gnome as well as its modified in your xorg.conf and i thought they were shared between gnome and xfce, but soldats prolly knows what hes talking about | 06:35 |
Icehawk78 | Is there a way to kill a process (a Ruby script, specifically) and then start it again every x hours through SSH? | 06:35 |
bkar | cron it | 06:37 |
KarrotCake | jones: btw xorg.conf is in /etc/X11/ | 06:37 |
soldats | KarrotCake, a slightly bad refresh rate will caue his problem as well as color depth not set right. but usually having one of those 2 issues you normally cant even boot to gui. but in the case that you do boot to gui the most likely thing is color depth slightly off or refresh rate slightly off. or maybe a faulty install. anyways gotta sleep | 06:38 |

jones | karrotcake/soldats: changing the depth worked. it does not crash any longer. :) my only issue is that that the terminal that it opens is huge. it covers approx 75% of the screen. i can resize it after opening but how can i make it not open so big? the font is large as well in the terminal but not in other apps. thanks for the help | 06:42 |

shady_inc | Hi.!!How can I disable the music that plays at Ubuntu start-up.?? | 06:50 |
crwlr | shady_inc: why would you want to do that? | 06:50 |
scguy318 | crwlr: because his machine may not be able to handle Emerald | 06:50 |
scguy318 | crwlr: not everyone can run it, I can't on this machine | 06:50 |
scguy318 | shady_inc: System -> Prefs -> Sounds I imagine | 06:50 |
crwlr | what are you running, scguy318? | 06:50 |
scguy318 | crwlr: Ubuntu Gutsy | 06:50 |

scguy318 | crwlr: wouldn't be very nice to my system performance | 06:51 |
crwlr | scguy318: AHHH | 06:52 |
Icehawk78 | Hopefully one last question. If I'm running SSH through screen, is there a way to have a specific cron job display its output on a specific screen session? | 06:52 |

crwlr | geubuntu sucks...just so ya'll know. stick with ubuntu! i am reinstalling ubuntu on my desktop now | 06:55 |
crwlr | me no speaky spanish, ozzloy, but hello and good to see you too | 06:55 |
possum_ | Does anyone know why installing xubuntu-desktop through synaptic would break gnome? | 06:56 |
ozzloy | crwlr: well as long as you understand a word here and there, it works | 06:56 |
pajamian | Icehawk78: you can always output the command for the cron job to a file and then use tail -f in the ssh you have open. | 06:56 |
crwlr | ozzloy: but I am in the US and EVERYBODY should speak the native language, which is English FYI. I'm diehard on that. | 06:57 |
Icehawk78 | crwlr: I'm aware that this isn't the place to discuss, but the US doesn't have an official language. | 06:57 |
ozzloy | crwlr: o.0 ... k >_> | 06:57 |
scguy318 | crwlr: yes, we should all speak some Native American language :P but we're getting off-topic | 06:58 |
crwlr | HAHAHA, i know, but i had to state it and didn't feel like joining some other room just to say it :) | 06:58 |

hatch | Question on pure-ftpd | 06:59 |
crwlr | possum_: why would you want to install it? | 07:00 |
ozzloy | possum_: probably no one knows the answer to your question | 07:00 |
ozzloy | possum_: at least, no one active right now | 07:00 |
hatch | I want to know where the default init stuff for pure-ftpd is stored (command line arguments) | 07:00 |
possum_ | sorry that was rude i'm just a little distressed been at my cmoputer for way too long trying to get to know how to do things | 07:01 |
scguy318 | possum_: how is GNOME broken? | 07:01 |
possum_ | trying to leave winblows dead and buried | 07:01 |
un0p | possum_, you should try installing xubuntu-desktop from the command line (apt-get install xubuntu-desktop) -- atleast that way, you can find out which exact package conflicts and try and workaround it (and report a bug to launchpad if it's a genuine bug) | 07:01 |
pajamian | possum_: answer is I think (don't know, but am mainly guessing here) that you can either have xfce or gnome, but not both? | 07:01 |
crwlr | possum_: you still didnt answer, dude. why do you want to install xubuntu? | 07:02 |
arjuna | what are some good click distro? | 07:02 |
un0p | pajamian, sure you can have both, why not? | 07:02 |
scguy318 | pajamian: you can have both | 07:02 |
hatch | screw it. I'll just try a different ftp server | 07:02 |
scguy318 | arjuna: Ubuntu :P | 07:02 |
pajamian | ok, I take it back, then, that's why I said I think, heh | 07:02 |
scguy318 | arjuna: more seriously, I hear PCLinuxOS and Mint are good too | 07:02 |

pteague | dang it, i thought i had downloaded the desktop version... i downloaded the bloody server :( | 07:02 |
scguy318 | pteague: you could technically install desktop with server | 07:03 |
possum_ | <crwlr> i just want tio try out a light weight desktop need to find something suitable for me | 07:03 |
quaal | anyone know what to do when there are mouse buttons that dont show up in xev ? | 07:03 |
scguy318 | pteague: you'll have to change kernels though | 07:03 |
scguy318 | possum_: Xubuntu/Fluxbuntu/DSL (may not be in your taste)/etc. | 07:03 |
un0p | siriusnova, have a read through this - http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Software_Suspend_v2 | 07:03 |
scguy318 | possum_: strange the freezing, disk issues? | 07:04 |
crwlr | possum_: I would recommend just sticking with the default desktop. although it's lightweight, i tried it and it takes quite a bit of configuration. wait till ya get to know ubuntu a bit more till you start adding something like that. | 07:04 |
possum_ | only in gnome.... everything works fine in kde | 07:04 |
pteague | scguy318> yeah, thought about that, but i seemed to have issues with the nvidia driver last time i tried that... then again last time i was using the i386 & this time it's the amd | 07:04 |
arjuna | scguy318> is fedora a click distro? | 07:04 |
scguy318 | pteague: find a good torrent and get that desktop ISO I suppose :) | 07:04 |
crwlr | possum_: but if you just wanna go for it and install it, i would say open the terminal and i believe that "sudo apt-get install xubuntu" puts it on there, then you just log out and change the session on the login screen. | 07:05 |
scguy318 | arjuna: not sure, it may or may not be in your taste | 07:05 |
pteague | downloading it from osuosl.org ... 1.5 hours left | 07:05 |

un0p | crwlr, ithe virtual package is named xubuntu-desktop | 07:05 |
un0p | s/i// | 07:05 |
pteague | arjuna> what do you mean by a click distro? | 07:05 |
crwlr | possum_: yeah caught that... sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop do that from the terminal, not synaptic | 07:06 |
scguy318 | un0p: do you mean metapackage? virtual packages aren't installable if I read the Debian stuff right | 07:06 |
arjuna | pteague> like i don't have to use code much | 07:06 |
possum_ | oh ok.... do i need to remove what i installed via synaptic first though? | 07:06 |
scguy318 | possum_: what did you install? | 07:06 |
possum_ | xubuntu-desktop | 07:07 |
un0p | scguy318, i can't be sure with the terminology -- but what i mean is xubuntu-desktop is not a real package, it just pulls in other packages when it is installed | 07:07 |
mage | scguy318: xubuntu-desktop depends on a lot of things, factor that into your debian knowledge ;) | 07:07 |
scguy318 | possum_: then there should be no need to run sudo apt-get ... | 07:07 |
arjuna | why choose ubuntu? | 07:07 |

pteague | arjuna> not sure what you mean... my biggest issue with redhat/fedora/mandriva is the package manager... then again i've not messed with redhat or mandriva for quite a while... but going from redhat 7.3 to 8 was unpleasant in rpm package dependency... i've not had any issues with debian based distros like ubuntu | 07:08 |

possum_ | <un0p> oh ok but i dont need to remove it again first? | 07:09 |
scguy318 | un0p: there's no package conflict or anything I believe, but GNOME is having issues | 07:09 |
possum_ | eah | 07:10 |
visof | scguy318 why why? | 07:10 |
un0p | scguy318, possum_ , does gnome break after installing xubuntu-desktop or does xubuntu-desktop fail to install? | 07:10 |
scguy318 | visof: surely one of the many free Linux players will cut it (perhaps with w32codecs from Medibuntu)? | 07:10 |
scguy318 | un0p: the former | 07:10 |
possum_ | no xubuntu-desktop installed fine now when i log into gnome the UI is all screwy | 07:11 |
visof | scguy318 ok | 07:11 |
un0p | possum_, any chance you can take a screenshot of what you see? | 07:11 |
possum_ | yes i can just need to switch to gnome | 07:12 |
possum_ | will do | 07:12 |
un0p | possum_, if you have xnest installed, you can logon a gnome-session without logging out | 07:12 |

MrMozart | un0p: thanks! | 07:17 |

jimmythegeek_ | not finding it in synaptic list | 07:19 |
n2diy_ | un0p: ok, haven't searched the net, I was hoping it would be in one of the character maps. It might be there too, I guess I should search the character maps too, but I was hoping to avoid that. | 07:19 |
mopitup | k ty - i will idle for a bit first anyway thanks | 07:19 |
un0p | possum_, hmm well - it's hard to say what has gone wrong with your install -- if you like, you can try this at the command line -- sudo aptitude install -f | 07:19 |
possum_ | <crwlr> what do you mean? i have left windows open for several minutes and there is no change. | 07:20 |
possum_ | <un0p> what does that do? | 07:20 |
bluefoxx | so i finally got my SATA HDD to mount, i hot pluged it, but now i cant rember how to change the owner of a disk, any help please? | 07:20 |
un0p | possum_, well, if there are any broken packages, it should try and sort that out | 07:21 |
crwlr | possum_: what session you in? gnome or xubuntu? | 07:21 |

ozzloy | possum_: try this: type "ozz" followed by the <Tab> key | 07:22 |
ozzloy | in here | 07:22 |
un0p | possum_, if you feel brave, you can completely remove/purge gnome and reinstall it -- but i wouldn't recommend it generally | 07:22 |
darkblue_B | ozzloy: no way - thats neat | 07:22 |
possum_ | ozzloy: lol thanks mate ^_~ | 07:22 |
n00bie | crwlr, yes, i tried googling, but couldn't find anything on the specific subject | 07:22 |
ozzloy | possum_: no problem! | 07:22 |
crwlr | n00bie: http://fluxbuntu.org/js.html# | 07:22 |
ozzloy | darkblue_B: no problem! | 07:23 |
bluefoxx | sorry, not mount, thats what im trying to do, i meant detect | 07:23 |
bluefoxx | so how is it that i change the owner of a drive/disk? | 07:23 |
bluefoxx | so that i don't have to be root to write to it? | 07:23 |
n2diy_ | bluefox, play with your permissions in /etc/dev/???? | 07:24 |
Kira | dang | 07:24 |
limepi | hey, I just installed and it seems that I have "bouncy" text entry | 07:24 |
arjuna | how experienced is ubuntu? | 07:24 |
un0p | bluefox83, what is the volume formatted as? | 07:24 |
Kira | I have a problem that is not related to Ubuntu or even Linux, but I don't know where to turn to ask. | 07:24 |
limepi | as I type, the letters all jiggle | 07:25 |
limepi | shoot. | 07:25 |
Jaggz- | how do I get back into the menu from the command-line grub? | 07:25 |
bluefoxx | n2diy_: i know that much, but im not sure how, also its /dev/sda1 that the drive is[74.4 GB] | 07:25 |
un0p | arjuna, ubuntu isnt a person, so it doesn't have any experience :) | 07:25 |
n2diy_ | arjuna: ?? | 07:25 |
un0p | Kira, ok, try us, we'll see where we can redirect you to | 07:25 |
bluefoxx | un0p: ok, one sec | 07:25 |
n2diy_ | bluefox, chmod /dev/sda1 | 07:25 |
possum_ | un0p: it wants to remove libgsf-gnome-1-114 | 07:25 |

ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about konversation - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:26 |

ubotu | Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 07:26 |

arjuna | MEPIS Linux and Xandros linux any good? | 07:26 |
bluefoxx | chmod: missing operand after `/dev/sda1' Try `chmod --help' for more information. | 07:26 |
un0p | n2diy_, chmodding /dev/sda is unlikely to do anything, thats only the block device, it's the actual volume that needs changing | 07:26 |
darkblue_B | any idea on a LOG to look in, for an apps errors that is failing to launch? Qt | 07:26 |
possum_ | un0p: it removed it.... do you want me to paste terminal text? or see if gnome is working again? | 07:27 |
un0p | arjuna, you'll have to ask the folks in the respective support channels ... | 07:27 |
cybergig | o.o | 07:27 |
n00bie | crwlr, does fluxbuntu have the same hardware support as a regular ubuntu installation? (i see it's not an official ubuntu release) | 07:27 |
n2diy_ | un0p: ok, interesting. Didn't know that. | 07:27 |
scguy318 | n00bie: I'm thinking yes, but I am not 100% sure | 07:27 |
un0p | possum_, well, if you removed it without any significant difficulty, then you'd probably be better of testing gnome out now | 07:27 |
crwlr | it should, n00bie | 07:27 |
possum_ | ok brb | 07:27 |
bluefoxx | ok, the disk seems to have been formatted as fat32 by the store i bought it from[bloody windows users i guess] | 07:28 |
crwlr | n00bie: i think any debian install would do fine and work as to what you have right now. i stick to debian | 07:28 |
un0p | noobiexx, it's probably better "building" fluxbuntu from a ubuntu server disk | 07:28 |
bluefoxx | so what should i reformat it to to get it to show up as a drive on my desktop like my mp3 player | 07:28 |
sn00zer | does anyone know what causes this error: ssh: connect to host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port xx: connection timed out | 07:29 |
un0p | bluefox83, well, you can't blame them -- FAT is the only filesystem that is universally supported on windows, mac, linux, etc | 07:29 |
MrMozart | unOp: hm, if I try to access \\192.168.1.7\baerlon in Windows then I get prompted for username/password. Will the same happen in ubuntu? | 07:29 |
crwlr | i will brb, gonna go smoke | 07:29 |
un0p | bluefox83, all you probably need to do is mount the drive -- see if it's detected -- sudo fdisk -l | 07:29 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: you aren't logging in/authenticating to it. | 07:29 |
bluefoxx | un0p: so what do i want to turn it into to have it show up on my dekstop as a regular drive? | 07:29 |
scguy318 | MrMozart: you should I believe | 07:29 |
bluefoxx | un0p: its detected, i had it mount into /media/disk | 07:30 |
_6StringKng_ | I use Konvarsation as my IRC client, I was wanting to know if the OSD works with Gnome? | 07:30 |
bluefoxx | but its locked for me | 07:30 |
un0p | MrMozart, that depends on how the share at \\192.168.1.7\baerlon is configured -- you'll probably be prompted for credentials, but you can save them | 07:30 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: it doesn't give me the chance, it used to prompt for a password, now it sits there until i get the time out message | 07:30 |
un0p | bluefox83, locked? in what way? | 07:30 |
crwlr | i am running fluxbox right now | 07:31 |
crwlr | xfce i mean | 07:31 |
crwlr | oops | 07:31 |
bluefoxx | owned by root, i dont want to have to run as root to write to it and i want to see it as a drive on my desktop like i can with my DAP and usb dongles | 07:31 |
=== Veterini is now known as Lylat |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: and you're using the same procedure now has you did in the past? Maybe it has been locked down? | 07:31 |
un0p | bluefox83, ok, how did you mount it? what exact command did you use? | 07:32 |
possum_ | un0p: ok it still doing the same thing but this time i managed to take a screenshot. Still wont let me browse files or open applications all the windows stay like these ones | 07:32 |
gvsa123 | is there a way to get back the default panel that comes with the installation of ubuntu? i mean to have the same buttons, including positions, etc...? i booted yesterday and all my buttons were disarranged. | 07:32 |
un0p | possum_, ok, any chance you can upload that pic somewhere? | 07:32 |
bluefoxx | un0p: mount /dev/sda1 /media/disk resulted in " mount: must be root" | 07:32 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: i've been trying to setup vnc over ssh but i don't think i've changed anything in the ssh settings | 07:32 |
xTheGoat121x | hi all | 07:32 |
bluefoxx | un0p: so i sudo ed it | 07:32 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: do you currently have physical access to the server? | 07:33 |
desertc | gvsa123: Do you know how to add and remove from the panel? | 07:33 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: yes | 07:33 |
un0p | bluefox83, right, try this -- umount it (as root) and mount it as a regular user -- sudo umount /dev/sda1; pmount-hal /dev/sda1 ... and then look in /media to see if it was mounted | 07:33 |
gvsa123 | desertc: yep... i was thinking of a way to just reset to default... just wondering... | 07:33 |
bluefoxx | un0p: ok will do | 07:33 |
desertc | gvsa123: you could create a new account... | 07:34 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: can you ping the server, and vice versus? | 07:34 |
possum_ | un0p: I'm uploading it to rapidshare but it will take a while on my connection | 07:34 |
desertc | gvsa123: you could log out and delete your .gnome directory... | 07:34 |
xTheGoat121x | Ok, so I need a way to display the current state of a file on my computer, or, more specifically, what's inside it.... | 07:34 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: yes, successful ping in both directions | 07:34 |
un0p | xTheGoat121x, gedit /path/to/file ? | 07:34 |
possum_ | un0p: ok here http://rapidshare.de/files/38392549/Screenshot.png.html | 07:35 |
gvsa123 | desertc: delete .gnome and then a new one will be created? you mean on my current account? or on the new account i would make? | 07:35 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: hmmm, weird, no other error messages? | 07:35 |
ouellettesr | hello, I need to figure out how to browse through my windows partition. | 07:35 |
MrMozart | how can i access a windows remote desktop from ubuntu? | 07:35 |
gradin | so yeah i'm trying to figure out a way to boot ubuntu from my usbflash | 07:35 |
ouellettesr | I can see it in /media/sda1 | 07:35 |
ouellettesr | but the folder is empty | 07:35 |

ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about tsclient - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:35 |
desertc | gvsa123: I suppose you would have to login with a new account. Sounds messy though, you sure you can't just add the buttons back? | 07:35 |
un0p | !info tsclient | MrMozart | 07:35 |

gvsa123 | desertc: i'm thinking i could copy from another user... it should be the .gnome directory? | 07:35 |
carl | ouellettesr, then why you cannot brownse ¡ | 07:35 |
carl | ? | 07:35 |
MrMozart | thankts unOp! | 07:35 |
Flannel | gvsa123: Dont need to copy, juts remove the whole thing | 07:36 |
xTheGoat121x | un0p, well yeah, but I'm talking display it somewhere, like on a panel or something.... | 07:36 |
Flannel | gvsa123: It'll get regenerated | 07:36 |
gvsa123 | desertc: i could of course... :) | 07:36 |
gvsa123 | Flannel: i see... i'll try that... | 07:36 |
un0p | xTheGoat121x, on the desktop ok? | 07:36 |
ouellettesr | carl | 07:36 |
carl | ouellettesr, did you hibernate your computer from xp ¡? | 07:36 |
gvsa123 | thanks you two... :) | 07:36 |
ouellettesr | I don't know | 07:36 |
desertc | gvsa123: yes, I agree with flannel | 07:36 |
xTheGoat121x | un0p, you see, the wireless light on my laptop doesn't light but I can monitor it through the ACPI | 07:36 |
ouellettesr | carl no | 07:36 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: not that i can tell, both pc's are right in front of me, on the client i enter ssh -X user@host and the cursor moves down 1 line and blinks until the time out error is shown | 07:36 |
Flannel | gvsa123: since, thats what happened the first time you logged in (it got created) | 07:36 |
carl | ouellettesr, you will not see your xp partition if you have a issues with xp | 07:37 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: and i've shut down and restarted the sshd several times but that didn't help | 07:37 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: I thought the command was ssh -l usernam blah blah blah? | 07:37 |
carl | ouellettesr, I mean, you must have xp without hibernate | 07:37 |
Kira | It's about packing software on CD. You guys know that many software companies put unique product keys with their CD packages. I'm just wondering how they make the arrangement with the CD packager. | 07:37 |
ouellettesr | carl, its windows vista | 07:37 |
carl | ouellettesr, mmm | 07:38 |
Flannel | Kira: #ubuntu-offtopic would be a good place. Well, better than here anyway. I really have no idea though. | 07:38 |
ouellettesr | carl it has worked before, I just haven't used it in a long time | 07:38 |
gradin | so i'm trying to install ubuntu to a usb flash only the bios doesn't support booting from flash is there any easy workaround, like a boot cd that will enable me to boot to the flash? | 07:38 |
visof | can i download some themes for mplayer? | 07:38 |
carl | ouellettesr, maybe ocurre an error in vista, or the energy went off | 07:39 |
Kira | Flannel: thanks. :) | 07:39 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: i don't think you need the -l if you use username@host, -l is for ssh username "space" host | 07:39 |
Kira | I never realised there is an offtopic channel. | 07:39 |
arjuna | gnome or kde is better? | 07:39 |
carl | ouellettesr, do you understand me ? | 07:39 |
bluefoxx | could i hot plug a IDE drive and see it without rebooting?> | 07:39 |
un0p | arjuna, thats like asking if a mercedes is better than a BMW ... | 07:40 |
Tm_T | arjuna: both are good for their own uses, try and find out what is yours | 07:40 |
Flannel | bluefoxx: When you "hot plug" you'll most likely cause your computer to reboot | 07:40 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: Could be? How about machine name. -l username. Maybe the DNS has changed? | 07:40 |
peter5579 | anyone experience with mandriva linux | 07:40 |

Flannel | peter5579: #mandriva probably might | 07:40 |
ouellettesr | carl, yeah that's not it. I used to have sda1 icon on my desktop, but I came in here and asked how to remove it from desktop. and since then I have not tried to acess it. | 07:41 |
carl | ouellettesr, I would prove reentering on vista, and then, reboot, and get into linux, and see if the partition is mounted | 07:41 |
bluefoxx | Flannel: well thats how i got my SATA drive to detect[after over a month of thinking my mobo was burning out] | 07:41 |
un0p | bullgard4, what are you trying to accomplish? | 07:41 |
carl | ouellettesr, did you delate it ??? | 07:41 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: didn't help | 07:41 |
ouellettesr | carl no | 07:41 |
ouellettesr | carl, changed fstab | 07:42 |
carl | ouellettesr, because that folder, it really contain the partition, it is not a link | 07:42 |
bullgard4 | un0p: A good question. Next question please. Or better yet, please an answer to my question. | 07:42 |
ouellettesr | carl I know | 07:42 |
un0p | bullgard4, wanna pay me? :) | 07:42 |
carl | ouellettesr, so, you did change your fstab for what ? | 07:43 |
ouellettesr | so I didn't have a sda1 icon on my desktop | 07:43 |
Zorlin | Anyone need help? :) | 07:43 |
un0p | bullgard4, i dont know the exact answer to this question - which is why i asked what you were trying to accomplish in the bigger picture so i could try and suggest an alternaitve route to a solution | 07:43 |
sn00zer | n2diy_: thanks for your help, i'll try a full reboot tomorrow and see if it fixes it | 07:44 |
carl | ouellettesr, what is your originall language ? | 07:44 |
bluefoxx | ok, so i have a second terminal box set up after my school gave me tha shell of a box they were going to toss, but i dont have enough pc100 RAM to boot a ubuntu CD, but i have gotten a puppy and slax dick to work in it, unfortunatly the mouse isnt working, its a serial mouse thats pluged into a serial>ps/2 adaptor, im wondering, does linux not support serial mice? | 07:44 |
Zorlin | bluefoxx: IDE/PATA specification is not *technically* hot-swappable :P | 07:44 |
gvsa123 | Flannel: desertc: hmmm... my panels didn't get reset... i looked at the contents of .gnome there was only a .trash_entry_cache inside a gnome-vfs directory | 07:44 |

carl | ouellettesr, never mind | 07:45 |
carl | ouellettesr, so, you did change your fstab | 07:45 |
bluefoxx | Zorlin: lol, i figured that, ive unpluged IDE drives from computers while they were running so i wanted to know if i could plug them back in | 07:45 |
carl | and after that, what happened ? | 07:45 |
ouellettesr | carl yes, a long time ago | 07:45 |
n2diy_ | sn00zer: google 73 and ham radio. :) | 07:45 |
ouellettesr | carl I didn't have the icon on my desktop anymore | 07:45 |

sn00zer | n2diy_: ahh, anyway, thanks again | 07:46 |
Zorlin | Bluefoxx: However... the softmod exploit/hot-swapping trick on Xbox'es uses hot-swapping to work | 07:46 |
arjuna | i have x2 processor is it 32 bit or 64 bit? | 07:46 |
Zorlin | and the xbox uses an IDE hard-drive :P | 07:46 |
carl | ouellettesr, did you comment the line changed ? | 07:46 |
Zorlin | so while it doesn't technically *support it* | 07:46 |

ouellettesr | carl http://pastebin.org/16784 | 07:46 |

Zorlin | all you need is a working PC with an IDE cable xD | 07:48 |
bluefoxx | Zorlin: cause i dont have 70$, if i did ide buy a hdd for my second computer, along with RAM and networking cable | 07:49 |
ouellettesr | carl the sda line | 07:49 |
Zorlin | lol. Touche. | 07:49 |
ouellettesr | sorry sda1 carl | 07:49 |
un0p | bullgard4, it's beyond me why you would delve into 'device information files' -- have you ruled out problems with network connectivity and permissions on the network share? | 07:49 |
Zorlin | Bluefoxx: If you use an IDE -> SATA converter, you might be able to pull it off | 07:49 |
Zorlin | as in, use an IDE -> SATA converter on each of the drives you need to hot-swap | 07:49 |
carl | ouellettesr, let me see my fstab and we could rebuild it | 07:50 |
Zorlin | but then you need to buy a SATA PCI card =\ | 07:50 |

sal_paradice | the connection works normally (fullspeed for ten minutes) the crawls at less than 1k/sec for ten minutes. then repeats ad nauseum. Any ideas? | 07:52 |
Zorlin | usually they are like $5-30 | 07:52 |
Zorlin | it really varies. | 07:52 |
pajamian | ok, I'm still having problems ... here's what's happening ... I've installed ubuntu gutsy and it boots up fine, then I run the upgrades and it freezes with a blank screen after logging in (blank is background color with mouse pointer that can be moved) so I think one of the packages that was upgraded is causing problems. Is there a way I can "downgrade" all those packages back to the base version without having to re-install ubuntu aga | 07:52 |
pajamian | in? Then I can experiment with a divide and conquor approach to find out which package is causing the problem? | 07:52 |
carl | ouellettesr, I can't see the problem | 07:52 |
n2diy_ | sal_paradice: network loading? | 07:52 |
carl | ouellettesr, it seems perfect the instruction | 07:52 |
ouellettesr | hmm | 07:52 |

Zorlin | bluefoxx: Found this http://www.cooldrives.com/idehadrtosap.html | 07:53 |
ouellettesr | carl no | 07:53 |
carl | ouellettesr, why did you change fstab ? | 07:54 |
carl | ouellettesr, what it was your purpose ? | 07:54 |
sal_paradice | n2diy: no, the problem only affects this laptop, even when there are no others on the network, or even when i'm on a different network | 07:54 |
jay-oh-en | how come everytime i turn my computer on it says fail to initialize HAL! | 07:54 |
jay-oh-en | failed** | 07:54 |
ouellettesr | carl, so I wouldn't have sda1 automount on my desktop. | 07:54 |
ouellettesr | carl, but no I need to access sda1 | 07:55 |
ouellettesr | but now* | 07:55 |
shady_inc | <jay-oh-en>You are dual-booting windows and ubuntu.? | 07:55 |
n2diy_ | sudo ftab no longer works here! Stand alone box, running Dapper. | 07:56 |
n2diy_ | *ftab/fstab | 07:56 |
carl | ouellettesr, this is my configuration: UUID=3E94FF4B94FF0465 /media/sda1 ntfs defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1 | 07:56 |
qwerty121 | Hi! I installed PHP/MySQL/Apache but can't connect to mysql...Is there some mods i have to make to connect to mysql? | 07:56 |
unop | n2diy_, sudo fstab ?? | 07:56 |
jay-oh-en | shady_inc, no i know it has something to do with hdparm | 07:56 |
unop | n2diy_, fstab is not a command | 07:57 |
possum_ | unop: did you see the screenshot mate? | 07:57 |
carl | ouellettesr, copy the instruccion after ntfs, and let's see if this is mounted | 07:57 |
desertc | pajamian: I think the only way to downgrade is to re-install | 07:57 |
sonicjmc | I need compiz help | 07:57 |
desertc | pajamian: what is exactly going on? you were not clear | 07:58 |
unop | possum_, I tried but i can't seem to get rapidshare to let me download the pic and I had to restart firefox can you send the link again | 07:58 |
unop | please? | 07:58 |
mattinrom | I need help getting qemu working someone help | 07:58 |
jay-oh-en | how come everytime i turn my computer on it says failed to initialize HAL! i looked on google but havent found an answer yet | 07:58 |
pajamian | sorry, I thought I was, not sure how else to explain it, what part was confusing? | 07:58 |
possum_ | unop: http://rapidshare.de/files/38392549/Screenshot.png.html =) | 07:58 |
desertc | pajamian: what is happening that is causing you not to login | 07:59 |
unop | possum_, fta | 07:59 |
n2diy_ | unop: then what is /etc/fstab? | 07:59 |
desertc | jay-oh-en: HAL is a microsoft term | 07:59 |
mopitup | I have ubuntu desktop running in a vmware workstation on a windows xp pro machine - I want to run Kaffeine in ubuntu as a capture app for my tvcard - currently it cant see the card - is what I want to do even possible? | 07:59 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, no it isnt | 08:00 |
qwerty121 | Hi! I installed PHP/MySQL/Apache but can't connect to mysql...Is there some mods i have to make to connect to mysql? | 08:00 |
desertc | jay-oh-en: I am quite certain it is | 08:00 |
unop | n2diy_, it's a non-executable text file containing information for mount to help in mounting volumes | 08:00 |
pajamian | I can login, and then it freezes with just the mouse pointer and a blank screen (background color), and the HDD light is flickering the whole time. I can move the mouse pointer and I can get a console with ctrl-alt-F1 but that's about it. | 08:00 |
shady_inc | <jay-oh-en> hal is hardware abstraction layer.hal.dll is a file in windows | 08:00 |
Starnestommy | mopitup: I don't think so, since most of the hardware is emulated | 08:00 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, search my problem on google and youll only see linux pop up | 08:00 |
possum_ | unop: fta? | 08:00 |
ouellettesr | \quit rebooting | 08:00 |
sonicjmc | /msg nickserv set unfiltered on | 08:01 |
sonicjmc | Can somebody help with Compiz? | 08:01 |
elius | qwerty121> what does 'mysql -u root -p' says? | 08:01 |
bashca | hi all | 08:01 |
n2diy_ | unop: and it used to list my network devices, no it doesn't I guess I've been "upgraded?" | 08:01 |
ntnhan | hi, when connect to ubuntu server (via ssh, http...) , it works fine but ubuntu server stops connection, ssh client kinda freezes | 08:01 |
Breakage | sonicjmc: try #compiz-fusion | 08:01 |
desertc | pajamian: what happens when you let it sit for a while? | 08:01 |
qwerty121 | elius: it's allright. but i can't connect to mysql with php... | 08:01 |
mopitup | Starnestommy ty - i was beginning to think it wasnt possible | 08:01 |
pajamian | nothing, I just let it sit while I went and ate dinner. | 08:01 |
sonicjmc | I haven't used this program ever, how to I change room? | 08:02 |
ntnhan | after some times | 08:02 |
desertc | pajamian: and you can't get to a service console? Can you get to a console before you login? | 08:02 |
ntnhan | anybody has such a problem with ubuntu server? | 08:02 |
pajamian | yes, I can get to a console | 08:02 |
sonicjmc | Oh, hey, figured out room changing | 08:02 |
unop | possum_, nevermind. i got your screenshot - what happens when you run this command (preferably at a terminal) .. killall gnome-settings-daemon && gnome-settings-daemon | 08:02 |
pajamian | both before and after logging in. | 08:02 |
pajamian | with ctrl-alt-F1 | 08:02 |
possum_ | unop: should i try it from within gnome? | 08:02 |
n2diy_ | ifstab used to list my network devices, now it doesn't? How do I see the network devices now, with Dapper? | 08:02 |
unop | n2diy_, fstab ?? perhaps you meant fdisk ? | 08:02 |
desertc | pajamian: what does the log file say? (use my name when chatting so people don't get confused) | 08:02 |
JackMe | see ya | 08:03 |
pajamian | desertc: which log file should I look at? | 08:03 |
ntnhan | my problem is exact same as http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=151180 | 08:03 |
elius | qwerty121> "cat /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini | grep mysql.so" paste results | 08:03 |
n2diy_ | unop: nope | 08:03 |
unop | possum_, try it from a virtual terminal -- press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to VT1 -- and CTRL+ALT+F7 to get back | 08:03 |
desertc | pajamian: let's start with the /var/log/messages | 08:03 |
bullgard4 | file:///usr/share/doc/hal-doc/spec/hal-spec.html#ov_halarch : How can I determine the filenames of my 'Device Information Files'? I believe that /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/ does not contain all necessary 'Device Information Files'. | 08:03 |
unop | n2diy_, afaik, fstab is not a _standard_ unix utility/command | 08:03 |
qwerty121 | elius: i am in windows now. brb | 08:03 |
unop | n2diy_, you probably have it confused for something named similar | 08:04 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, search my problem on google and youll only see linux pop up | 08:04 |
jay-oh-en | oops | 08:04 |
jay-oh-en | how come everytime i turn my computer on it says failed to initialize HAL! i looked on google but havent found an answer yet | 08:04 |
n2diy_ | unop: yes, I could be having a brain cramp. Going to search my CLI history now. | 08:04 |
desertc | jay-oh-en: why don't you tell us what google says, so we can understand your problem as well as you | 08:05 |
possum_ | unop: it returns "gnome-settings-daemon: no process killed" | 08:05 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, simply because i cant paste a bunch of stuff | 08:05 |
pajamian | desertc: I'm looking for something that jumps out at me ... | 08:06 |
desertc | pajamian: it should be at the end | 08:06 |
desertc | jay-oh-en: use pastebin | 08:06 |
unop | possum_, ok, try this again (mind the &s) -- killall -9 gnome-settings-daemon && gnome-settings-daemon & | 08:06 |
pajamian | ok, I will retype the last few lines, then ... | 08:06 |
desertc | !pastebin |pajamian | 08:06 |
ubotu | pajamian: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 08:06 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, or you can look an google and see what im seeing but MORE | 08:06 |
pajamian | heh, right, I'll use the pastebin, let me install a mail app and see if I can mail the log to myself | 08:07 |
unop | possum_, i gotta do something -- i'll probably be back in about 5/10 mins | 08:07 |
desertc | jay-oh-en: but then how would everyone else here be able to help you? | 08:07 |
khatsalano | Hi all. Some commands (ex: useradd, mkdir) I do as sudo get ignored. Nothing happens no error, nothing. I can't even shutdown! Any ideas? (7.10 server) | 08:07 |
arjuna | why do you hate windows? please go back to windows. how dare you install linux? | 08:07 |
possum_ | unop: ok thanks man =D | 08:08 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, but ill bet somebody in here is watching me type and just watching and not helping | 08:08 |
genewitch | is there a stable ubuntu release using a 2.4 kernel? | 08:08 |
desertc | jay-oh-en: that would be me | 08:08 |
genewitch | I suppose what i am asking is "what ubuntu distro uses 2.4.x" | 08:09 |
jay-oh-en | desertc, eff you | 08:09 |
n2diy_ | unop: yes, I could be having a brain cramp. I was looking for ifconfig! | 08:09 |
buffdaemon | hello guys which package should i install to get inittab file? | 08:10 |
void^ | genewitch: none | 08:10 |
Gpalco | Hi, Guys. Does anyone know what is the situation with Pidgin Voice Support for talking to Google talk ??? Is it being developed? Becoming available ??? | 08:11 |
Starnestommy | Gpalco: try asking #pidgin. | 08:11 |
dn4 | wget http://download85.mediafire.com/y3lzn29vrr2g/fzdznvbnlwu/SECRETOX.rar <-- will this work so that I can download ANON documents that the Church of Scientology does not want me to see? | 08:11 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: I assume that the "Pidgin does NOT support voice or video" | 08:12 |
Zorlin | in the name of the topic, would indicate "No" | 08:12 |
genewitch | is there a stable ubuntu release using a 2.4 kernel? | 08:12 |
Zorlin | to both your questions. | 08:12 |
janke | haha, dn4, that'll work fine | 08:12 |
Gpalco | Starnestommy, no such chanel | 08:12 |
Starnestommy | Gpalco: without the . at the end | 08:12 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: #pidgin without the dot | 08:12 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: The topic of #pidgin has "Pidgin does NOT support voice or video" in it, so I assume thats a NO :P | 08:13 |
n2diy_ | genewitch: try asking in #ubuntu-kernel? | 08:13 |
buffdaemon | hello guys i am using ubuntu linux and i dont see /etc/inittab file in there so is there any package that i need to install inorder to get that file? | 08:13 |
genewitch | good point | 08:13 |
Gpalco | Starnestommy, Zorlin, thank you | 08:14 |
_ruben | buffdaemon: inittab is no longer used in ubuntu, it uses upstart instead of init | 08:14 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: You're most welcome. Stick around a while and help out others if you like. Need help with anything else? | 08:15 |
Zorlin | =p | 08:15 |
buffdaemon | thanks a lot | 08:15 |
desertc | pajamian: still there? I forgot you can't do a cut and paste | 08:15 |
arjuna | anybody here still uses windows 98? | 08:15 |
Zorlin | _ruben: Wow, really? Since when? | 08:15 |
pajamian | desertc: yeah, I installed mailutils and am trying to email to myself | 08:15 |
jeffrock | i have a windows 98 vm | 08:15 |
pajamian | but it doesn't appear to be going through | 08:15 |
CentHOGG | arjuna: installed it today on a i586 | 08:15 |
crdlb | Zorlin: edgy | 08:15 |
CentHOGG | or yesterday | 08:16 |
pajamian | I'm trying to think of another way to get it to me ... maybe I can scp it somewhere... | 08:16 |
Zorlin | crdlb: Oh darn, now I feel like a total noob. I tried for hours to get a script running using init on 6.10 | 08:16 |
Zorlin | if init.d is gone, i mean | 08:16 |
desertc | pajamian: interesting! | 08:16 |
Zorlin | :P Thanks crdlb, thanks _ruben | 08:17 |
arjuna | CentHOGG> what's i586 | 08:17 |
sonicjmc | Note, if anybody has the same error I did. Tell them to try installing xserver-xgl | 08:17 |
pajamian | ...or install openssh and just log in from a terminal on this box will work ... | 08:17 |
CentHOGG | arjuna: pentium | 08:17 |
Zorlin | CentHOGG: A CPU architecture? | 08:17 |
Zorlin | oops, arjuna* i mean | 08:17 |
CentHOGG | Zorlin: correct | 08:17 |
Gpalco | Zorlin, aha. I do. I am looking for software in Ubuntu like the KillCopy in Windows - it integrates into Win Explorer and gives you options to resume copy/move, recover broken files etc... Is there an addition like that for NAUTILUS ??? Need it badly. | 08:17 |
pajamian | or is the package sshd? | 08:18 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: Sorry mate, I'm not too sure about that =( | 08:18 |
arjuna | what's the best image burning software for linuxwhat's the best image burning software for linux | 08:18 |
Zorlin | But ask around, there is 1157 people logged in here. :P Someone's gotta know something. | 08:18 |
pajamian | ahhh, openssh-server | 08:18 |
Zorlin | Arjuna: K3b is supposed to be very good, if you are running Kubuntu. | 08:18 |
pier | hi | 08:18 |
Zorlin | Arjuna: I like the one with a mexican name, but I can't remember it... | 08:18 |
Gpalco | Zorlin, there is a stage in Ubuntu starup: after login screen and the desktop itself - it is where Gnome Splash used to be. Is it possible to change the color of that screen ??? I changed the color of GDM Login screen, but it has no effect on the "no-splash-screen"! Any idea? | 08:18 |
stefano_ | are there any usability people around here whom i can talk to? | 08:19 |
pajamian | heh, I do web programming remotely, I'm very comfortable in a console. | 08:19 |
Ademan | i know this is off topic, but the linux mint channel has 7 people in it who apparently aren't talking. Does linux mint share the ubuntu repositories? do they have their own repos on top of that? or what? | 08:19 |
CentHOGG | pajamian: is that easy to learn to do? | 08:19 |
webPragmatist | yea i wish i could get the hang of vim | 08:19 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: Perhaps you'll find it in the gnome-splash settings, if gnome-splash is still integrated but just set to invisible :P | 08:19 |
webPragmatist | i would do the console edity thing | 08:19 |
aroedl | PLEASE! Do not feed this troll arjuna! He's asking the same questions for a while in several channels. | 08:19 |
Ademan | vim = sex, except i'm still having it after my girlfriend left me | 08:19 |
Ademan | lol | 08:19 |
webPragmatist | the only editor i understand is nano | 08:20 |
webPragmatist | :P | 08:20 |
* genewitch can't use vim, no Q key on the laptop!!! | 08:20 |
pajamian | CentHOGG: define easy | 08:20 |
* genewitch is a dyed in the wool emacs fan | 08:20 |
stefano_ | Ademan, ubuntu and mint are not connected officially as far as i know, so i suppose they dont share anything except a lot of source code :-) | 08:20 |
Zorlin | Pajamian: A task done without too much of a struggle. | 08:20 |
CentHOGG | pajamian: something that doesn't cause table pounding frustration :P | 08:20 |
Ademan | stefano_: huh, for some reason i thought mint relied on ubuntu's repositories, but if not, meh, thanks | 08:20 |
webPragmatist | arjuna: Nero Burning Rom | 08:21 |
Zorlin | Or rather, "done without too much of a struggle." | 08:21 |
pajamian | LoL, I've had lots of table pounding frustration in my time, so I guess that's no. | 08:21 |
Zorlin | Pajamian: A task with minimum risk of PEBCAK | 08:21 |
jervine | arjuna is a bot/troll guys... he's asking the same question in multiple channels | 08:21 |
stefano_ | so, noone here is into usability? | 08:21 |
Zorlin | stefano_: What do you mean? | 08:21 |
pajamian | ok, I've got a ssh console open from this computer now, so this should be much easier ... | 08:21 |
stefano_ | Zorlin, well i'm a developer and i work on something, and now i have a hard time deciding how to implement one specific thing, and my solution really sounds bonkers so i thought i'd try to find someone maybe from the openusability project or someone who's into this topic | 08:22 |
pajamian | desertc: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53276/ | 08:23 |
stefano_ | specifically about how to implement a more advanced Undo / Redo, because the one we're all used to really is terrible | 08:23 |
Zorlin | Stefano_: I'm pretty new at Linux, so I might not be the best candidate | 08:23 |
genewitch | stefano_ what about it do you want to fix? | 08:23 |
Zorlin | :P | 08:23 |
pajamian | that's just the end, I can copy/paste the entire thing if need be | 08:23 |
juso | if I have a remote server running smtpd and I want to access it via a ssh tunnel I would create the tunnel from my local desktop to the remote server, or on the remote server itself from port X to port 25? | 08:23 |
genewitch | juso if it's a routed port, either should work | 08:24 |
stefano_ | Zorlin, if you undo something, then type text, you can't redo. so your version you had a couple of seconds before undoing is lost | 08:24 |
stefano_ | thats what annoys me | 08:24 |
Zorlin | hmmmm | 08:24 |
genewitch | stefano_ do you have a working model? | 08:24 |
stefano_ | especially when programming/debugging | 08:24 |
Zorlin | it'd probably be a bit annoying. | 08:24 |
stefano_ | yes i think so, but as i said it might not be as good as i think | 08:24 |
Zorlin | what was your solution? maybe just copy whatever you undid to the clipboard or something | 08:24 |
genewitch | stefano_ seems like the best idea woul... yah, sorta what zorlin says | 08:25 |
Zorlin | Or you could make a variable or at least the equivalent of a variable in whatever language you are using | 08:25 |
genewitch | you could add to it multiple layers of undo clippings... sorta like a macroed control X | 08:25 |
Zorlin | and then temporarily store the change you are undoing, and then have redo call it | 08:25 |
stefano_ | here's my idea: if you undo, then type, then redo, your chanes get undone step by step until youre at the point before you typed in other text, from then on you have a normal redo, if you can understand that (as i said it sounds bonkers). do you think it would feel right? | 08:25 |
genewitch | sounds like photoshop's history tab | 08:26 |
=== tyczek is now known as Tyczek |
genewitch | am i correct in saying that? | 08:26 |
Zorlin | Stefano_: It might. | 08:26 |
arjuna | NightKhaos> where can i find a .deb file for k3b? | 08:26 |
Zorlin | Stefano_: But how about: Make undo store the changes in a variable, then have redo call it from the variable and then clear the variable. | 08:26 |
iceman | who took my nick? i like that nick very much | 08:27 |
Zorlin | The variable is only used by undo/redo so chances are you won't have problems :P | 08:27 |
stefano_ | Zorlin, i take a different approach on undo/redo, i want to save difference-information with every letter you type so that you can go back in time in your document up until the point it was created, even after saving | 08:27 |
pajamian | stefano_: sounds like you want a sort of branching undo history, where you don't loose your changes but they could be saved into a "branch" and you could switch branches later on, etc. | 08:28 |
stefano_ | that sounds good | 08:28 |
genewitch | pajamian i called it a branching tree heirarchy, in a msg to him | 08:28 |
genewitch | it's like photoshop history with "snapshots" of time | 08:28 |
stefano_ | a tree hirarchy | 08:28 |
stefano_ | thats exactly what i need | 08:28 |
Zorlin | Stefano_: Somehow I think Pajamian/Genewitch's suggestion would work better :) | 08:28 |
Zorlin | Good luck, and hope it all works out for you :P | 08:29 |
Zorlin | Anyone else need help/ideas? | 08:29 |
genewitch | Stefano, grab you an opensource editor's source code and get to hacking | 08:29 |
stefano_ | thanks genewitch | 08:29 |
genewitch | I'll betatest for you! | 08:29 |
pajamian | I tend to think of it ... if you've ever worked with a revision control system such as CVS, as branches in that, you can go back to prior revisions and branch off and the other branch you were on is not lost. | 08:29 |
stefano_ | well all that is for the windows platform | 08:29 |
genewitch | that's a good analogy, pajamian | 08:29 |
stefano_ | just nobody uses pascal in linux anymore and my project is pascal related :-) | 08:30 |
genewitch | you know what no one uses anymore? FORTRAN. | 08:30 |
genewitch | but godspeed to your pascal project | 08:30 |
pajamian | anymore, I thought it wasn't until fairly recently that there even was a decent pascal compiler for Linux. | 08:30 |
stefano_ | good point | 08:30 |
mavi- | pascal? | 08:30 |
mavi- | wow, havent heard of that since school | 08:31 |
stefano_ | i think about a year ago, i had the only usable pascal ide | 08:31 |
pajamian | of course, I'm not sure why anyone would use pascal on any platform, heh | 08:31 |
possum_ | unop: That command returned [1] 16210 gnome settings daemon: no process killed | 08:31 |
stefano_ | but then i discovered geany, but on the windows platform, mine is still #1 _> | 08:31 |
pajamian | desertc: did you see my paste? | 08:31 |
Jaggz- | how do I get back into the menu from the command-line grub? | 08:31 |
genewitch | escape | 08:32 |
Jaggz- | I'd like to investigate some things, then go back to the nice edited menu | 08:32 |
Jaggz- | wow | 08:32 |
genewitch | :-) | 08:32 |
genewitch | if you edited anything, b to boot after hitting escape | 08:32 |
stefano_ | k guys i'm going to be working, thanks for your help, appreciate it very much, bye | 08:33 |
Jaggz- | will maps and such remain as the foundation for the menu-ized entries? | 08:33 |
=== stefano_ is now known as stefano|work |
genewitch | Jaggz- just for that boot | 08:33 |
Jaggz- | right, great. | 08:33 |
genewitch | Jaggz- you have to edit menu.lst to make it perminate | 08:33 |
Jaggz- | I'm having a hell of a time getting my 3rd drive to boot (linux on it).. first 2 drives are raid0 | 08:33 |
iceman | is there a channel for non-english speakers learning english | 08:33 |
genewitch | webster.com? | 08:33 |
Jaggz- | iceman, www.voycabulary.com | 08:34 |
Jaggz- | what language do you speak? | 08:34 |
iceman | chinese | 08:34 |
Jaggz- | nowadays there are plugins.. but without those, starting from back in the day, voycabulary was awesome | 08:34 |
genewitch | oh here's a question. anyone heard of an open/closed source locationfree server (for sony's silly clients) | 08:34 |
Jaggz- | I think I provide an English -> Chinese dictionary | 08:35 |
shady_inc | Does anyone know how can I port-forward my router in Ubuntu gutsy for deluge.? | 08:35 |
Jaggz- | gene, server for what? | 08:35 |
genewitch | locationfree | 08:35 |
Jaggz- | oh.. thought that was a term for a decentralized network :) | 08:35 |
genewitch | lets you stream video to PSPs and windows and macs and stuff | 08:35 |
iceman | Jaggz-, you mean you can speak eng and chinese either | 08:35 |
Jaggz- | iceman, voycabulary would only be for reading webpages | 08:36 |
jeffrock | i use media tomb | 08:36 |
jeffrock | haven't got it working right for ps3 though | 08:36 |
Jaggz- | iceman, you want a #ubuntu-with-english-and-chinese-is-okay-too channel? I'm far from an expert on the ubuntu channels :) | 08:36 |
genewitch | it's for the psp my girlfriend has | 08:36 |
Jaggz- | dunno.. maybe vlc? | 08:37 |
Jaggz- | gene | 08:37 |
iceman | Jaggz-, no i just want to learn english | 08:37 |
genewitch | Yeah that's all hacky though (psp side). i don't want to accidently brick her psp trying to get video to work :-) | 08:37 |
Gpalco | Zorlin, What is the command to restart Ubuntu networking deamon ??? | 08:37 |
Jaggz- | iceman, ohh. | 08:37 |
genewitch | iceman, the only thing i can think of that will help you learn english is to watch english television and maybe pick up a copy of rosetta (language software) | 08:38 |
Zorlin | Gpalco: Erm, not too sure... | 08:38 |
pajamian | Gpalco: I always use: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 08:38 |
Zorlin | nm-manager-applet or something is its name, right? | 08:38 |
smackywolf | are there any currently reported issues with the partitioning system in the current stable ubuntu releases? i;m seeing a lot of stupidity | 08:38 |
iceman | genewitch, thank you for advice,but i haven;t had enough time,i need to work | 08:38 |
iceman | Genetics, by the way,what is rosetta,what is it for | 08:39 |
Gpalco | pajamian, thank you | 08:40 |
scguy318 | iceman: Rosetta Stone is a series of foreign-language educational software programs | 08:40 |
pajamian | Gpalco: yw | 08:40 |
unop | smackywolf, is this on the live CD? | 08:40 |
RobotGuy | ~faq | 08:40 |
smackywolf | unop: yup. it's not seeing unpartitioned space on one ntfs partitioned disk or on the EXT3 partitioned one | 08:40 |
iceman | scguy318, you know this software,does that mean, that you are not native speaker | 08:40 |
smackywolf | unop: also, gparted doesn't see it either. | 08:41 |
LL00 | ehlo | 08:41 |
scguy318 | iceman: I am a native speaker, but I know what it is because I have seen advertisements for it | 08:41 |
dn4 | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KZWoGX1cb8 <--- How do I watch this? | 08:41 |
Gpalco | I get this message when trying to enable Compiz Desktop Effects : "Composit extention is not available" What does it mean? Isn't Compiz installed by default ??? I use an ATI video - is it the problem? | 08:41 |
unop | smackywolf, errn, unpartitioned space on a ntfs partition? doesn't seem to make sense :) | 08:41 |
scguy318 | Gpalco: ATI is a problem :P you probably want to fiddle with XGL | 08:41 |
scguy318 | iceman: I wish I wasn't a native speaker, my command in my other language isn't as great as in English | 08:42 |
smackywolf | unop: one disk has an NTFS part and free space, the other has the same but with EXT3 | 08:42 |
smackywolf | it's not seeing any of the free space | 08:42 |
iceman | scguy318, is it good,or did you hear someone used it,got progress?and most important,is it free? | 08:43 |
Gpalco | scguy318, thank you. so just wait for a new driver release ? | 08:43 |
unop | smackywolf, so does the paritioner report the first parition as taking up all the space on the disk ? | 08:43 |
smackywolf | yep | 08:43 |
Jaggz- | I'm a bit confused. My grub install worked.. but when I boot it seems like grub uses the bios' recognition of drives instead of Linux' recognition | 08:43 |
smackywolf | there's two disks. it's doing the same to both | 08:43 |
scguy318 | Gpalco: well, not that, you'll have to install XGL and do other things | 08:43 |
scguy318 | !xgl | Gpalco | 08:43 |
ubotu | Gpalco: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 08:43 |
Jaggz- | first off.. is this true? (I think it is) | 08:43 |
scguy318 | Gpalco: something like that | 08:43 |
unop | smackywolf, I'd report a bug if i were you -- and use something else in the meantime to partition the disks | 08:43 |
genewitch | iceman rosetta is language learning software. they teach you a language like you're a kid learning it for the first time. meaning very little translation to your native language. it's quite awesome. | 08:43 |
LL00 | how I can make maildir/ for ldap with virtual user accounts? right now it's mbox | 08:44 |
smackywolf | unop: cool. thanks. I was wondering if anyone had seen it | 08:44 |
scguy318 | iceman: I hear it's a good program, though you shouldn't take me as the final word, it is unfortunately not free, though there are demo distributions | 08:44 |
Gpalco | scguy318, thank you. got it now | 08:44 |
g011um | Hi ! | 08:44 |
unop | smackywolf, to be honest .. i dont like the partitioner and setup on the live CD -- could be much better | 08:44 |
LL00 | with local database and virtual users it's maildir | 08:44 |
scguy318 | Gpalco: ATI needs to shape up else everyone will defect to NVIDIA :P | 08:44 |
LL00 | damn | 08:44 |
pajamian | smackywolf: are you seeing a different amount of formatted space in windows than you see in the partition editor? | 08:44 |
LL00 | wrong chan | 08:45 |
LL00 | :) | 08:45 |
smackywolf | unop: eh, it's ok. i miss the old curses debian installer | 08:45 |
scguy318 | genewitch: I'm presuming iceman's native language is Chinese via his whois | 08:45 |
unop | smackywolf, you got the alternate CD for that | 08:45 |
pajamian | smackywolf: try the alternate install CD, then | 08:45 |
g011um | Do you know how to clean printing head for a canon i560 printer ? is ther a generic tools ? | 08:45 |
smackywolf | pajamian: nope. partition magic can see the unformatted stuff. but the parted part can't/ | 08:45 |
genewitch | canon... call them they'll tell you | 08:45 |
smackywolf | pajamian: it's like the unpartitioned areas don't exist | 08:46 |
Gpalco | Can OpenOffice.org database of words autocompletion be backed up and imported into new Ubuntu install so long words completion options would be automatically offered when typing. I love this feature, but it starts all over with each reinstall/ Please.... | 08:46 |
g011um | LoL | 08:46 |
Qrawl | !php | 08:46 |
ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 08:46 |
genewitch | g011um it's different for every printer, but there's a key combination you hold down to get a hardware clean and reset | 08:46 |
monkeeofdoom | channel | 08:46 |
pajamian | ok, so that partitioned areas are showing the correct amount of space? | 08:46 |
scguy318 | g011um: on Windows I know you'd fire up their little printer maintenance tool then initiate cleaning, but on Linux i dunno | 08:46 |
smackywolf | pajamian: yup. the partitioned space, at least. | 08:46 |
unop | smackywolf, partition magic does funny things that some other partitoners can't deal with -- did you setup intitial partitions with PM? | 08:46 |
pajamian | smackywolf: how many partitions do you have on the drive currently? | 08:46 |
monkeeofdoom | channel #zero | 08:46 |
scguy318 | unop: oh god Partition Magic :) | 08:46 |
smackywolf | unop: nope, i tried PM after this wouldn't work | 08:46 |
monkeeofdoom | partition magic | 08:47 |
unop | scguy318, you can "oh god" again :) | 08:47 |
g011um | yep in fact the only way i found is to use turbo print only for these maintenance tasks | 08:47 |
monkeeofdoom | ping g0llum | 08:47 |
g011um | so no command line tool ? | 08:47 |
smackywolf | pajamian: there's two drives. one partition on each with free space remaining, unpartitioned. there's no hardware problem, at least that SMART can see | 08:47 |
genewitch | g011um i am thinking of epson, not canon. did you check the user guide on canon.com? | 08:47 |
genewitch | smackywolf there's generally a small amount of unpartitioned space left over (on the magnitude of megabytes) | 08:48 |
g011um | yes. for epson there is a tools include in kde... but not for canon :( | 08:48 |
smackywolf | plus, i've tried with kubuntu, ubuntu, and mythbuntu of the current 7.10. all the same | 08:48 |
napster^ | hello, how to share files by networking? I can ping them, but can't trade(exchange) files | 08:48 |
pajamian | ok, then not what I was thinking. | 08:48 |
smackywolf | genewitch: yeah. in this case, it's not small. it's 30 gig and 20 gig respectively | 08:48 |
unop | smackywolf, tried anything else other than 7.10? maybe even a different distro? | 08:48 |
genewitch | smackywolf are you trying to not lose data on the partitions? | 08:48 |
coolbhavi | often a song tends to get "stuck" on totem movie player and i'm not able to turn it off, unless i shut off the entire computer. Is there another appropriate way to handle this problem? | 08:49 |
smackywolf | unop: anything not debbased doesn't like this machine, other than suse. | 08:49 |
unop | smackywolf, actually -- what does fdisk -l from the live CD report? | 08:49 |
scguy318 | napster^: you could do it client-server way and have one server run an sshd, or you could use Samba or NFS | 08:49 |
smackywolf | genewitch: yup. i'm considering wiping the windows partion | 08:49 |
scguy318 | !samba | napster^ | 08:49 |
bullgard4 | file:///usr/share/doc/hal-doc/spec/hal-spec.html#ov_halarch : How can I determine the filenames of my 'Device Information Files'? I believe that /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/ does not contain all necessary 'Device Information Files'. | 08:49 |

smackywolf | unop: nothing. | 08:49 |
scguy318 | smackywolf: prefix with sudo | 08:49 |
unop | smackywolf, aye, sudo that | 08:50 |
genewitch | sudo make me_a_sandwich | 08:50 |
=== NicoTux2_ is now known as NicoTux2 |
unop | bullgard4, have you tried that gnomevfs command without prefixing sudo? | 08:50 |
smackywolf | reports the correct amount of on primary disk, thought the end block seems a little off | 08:50 |
scguy318 | genewitch: I guess we both read xkcd :P | 08:51 |
napster^ | got dc ;( | 08:51 |
smackywolf | of the partition, i mean | 08:51 |
scguy318 | !samba | napster^ | 08:51 |

scguy318 | napster^: or NFS | 08:51 |
jhend60 | i installed kubuntu | 08:51 |
jhend60 | but now im in tty 5 mode | 08:51 |
jhend60 | how do i change back to normal | 08:51 |
unop | bullgard4, yea, i'm having big problems with freenode today -- repeated disconnect()s | 08:52 |
pajamian | smackywolf: you can always wipe and re-create your partition table. If you do it right you shouldn't loose any data, though that is a very dangerous operation data-wise. | 08:52 |
Jaggz- | why do I want to spend time getting my system to boot into linux when I have my server, already in linux, right next to me and I can just ssh into it and get work done? | 08:52 |
scguy318 | jhend60: X runs on tty5, what do you mean? | 08:52 |
mavi- | jhend60: ctrl-alt-F7 | 08:52 |
iceman | scguy318, you do not need to ,i have said that before,did not i | 08:52 |
genewitch | I learned today that my laptop cannot boot off a flash drive :-) | 08:52 |
jhend60 | ok i will try it | 08:52 |
smackywolf | pajamian: that sounds a little daunting. i've never wiped and restored data before o.o | 08:52 |
scguy318 | jhend60: i stand corrected | 08:52 |
jhend60 | i mean its a console now i want GUI again | 08:52 |
napster^ | thanks guys, I'll try that | 08:52 |
scguy318 | iceman: ? | 08:52 |
arjuna | my dvd drive is not recognizing my dvd rw cds. it just let the light on for a long time!! what's wrong? | 08:52 |
regius | hi is it possible to change the order nautilus download files? If I have a folder with 10 files named 1-10, nautilus start with 10 | 08:52 |
genewitch | jhend60 alt ctrl f7 | 08:52 |
smackywolf | jhend60: try ctl+alt+F7 | 08:52 |
mavi- | jhend60: ctrl-alt-F<what console you want to, 7 is graphics> | 08:52 |
unop | smackywolf, any possibility of !pastebin-ing the output of fdisk -l? | 08:53 |
scguy318 | iceman: oh, I must have missed that, this is a busy channel | 08:53 |
jhend60 | ok thanks | 08:53 |
smackywolf | unop: sure, this room got one? | 08:53 |
jhend60 | but TEXT IS HUGE NOW | 08:53 |
Jaggz- | 7 is usually where X is | 08:53 |
iceman | scguy318, you presume i said english | 08:53 |
unop | !paste | smackywolf | 08:53 |
ubotu | smackywolf: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic) | 08:53 |
Jaggz- | is there still an svgatextmode? | 08:53 |
mavi- | Jaggz-: yeah | 08:53 |
Jaggz- | cool | 08:53 |
Jaggz- | not much like good ol' console. | 08:53 |
BetaTest | Where is the installation path of Mozilla? | 08:53 |
scguy318 | iceman: for what? | 08:54 |
jhend60 | now it is all black with a flashing line | 08:54 |
genewitch | iceman: rosetta software will allow you to learn many languages as if you were born in that country as a kid | 08:54 |
Jaggz- | BetaTest: dpkg -L name_of_package_to_list_install_files | 08:54 |
Jaggz- | okay.. I'm off to focus on me work! | 08:54 |
scguy318 | iceman: ooh, my mistake | 08:54 |
Jaggz- | peace love and humptiness | 08:54 |
genewitch | Jaggz- have fun | 08:54 |
Jaggz- | don't log that forever please | 08:54 |
pajamian | hrmmmm, it looks like desertc went AFK, anyone else care to take a crack at helping me with my problem? | 08:54 |
jhend60 | ctrl alt F7 doesnt work ps i have kubuntu | 08:54 |
Jaggz- | as I'm really not sure what it means | 08:54 |
genewitch | pajamian what is it? | 08:54 |
jibwn | Does anyone have a link to a guide on how to encrypt an entire drive with truecrypt and use ext3? | 08:54 |
genewitch | Jaggz- logging isn;t allowed on this network anyhow | 08:55 |
Jaggz- | jhend, alt-f7? | 08:55 |
BetaTest | Jaggz-: BetaTest: dpkg -L name_of_package_to_list_install_files | Can you explain that? o.O | 08:55 |
pajamian | genewitch: I'll pull it up, one min ... | 08:55 |
smackywolf | pastebin- http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53279/ | 08:55 |
unop | BetaTest, at a terminal -- dpkg -L mozilla-firefox | 08:55 |
genewitch | pajamian just the general problem, so i can say if i can help :-) | 08:55 |
Jaggz- | Beta, like.. dpkg -l '*firefox*' see name of package you want, then dpkg -L mozilla-firefox | 08:55 |
BetaTest | Ah, thank you | 08:55 |
Jaggz- | I've been using linux for 14 yearses! | 08:55 |
genewitch | you got 4 years on me, jaggz | 08:56 |
genewitch | actually, 6, i started in BSD | 08:56 |
iceman | genewitch, i see that you strongly recommend that thing, so i will google it,thank you | 08:56 |
pajamian | yep, I'm just pulling it from my keyboard history rather than re-typing it... | 08:56 |
genewitch | iceman i learned japanese using it (nihongo text, though) | 08:56 |
bullgard1 | unop: "gnomevfs-copy smb://md97600/freigegebenMD /home/detlef; Failed to copy smb://md97600/freigegebenMD to /home/detlef; Reason: Access denied" | 08:56 |
smackywolf | well, gparted made something slightly better. i resized one drives parition (the windows one) and now i'm just missing about 6 gig | 08:56 |
Jaggz- | jhend, usually alt-f# changes console.. alt-f7 is usually where X is. within X you usually need ctrl-alt-F# to view one of the text consoles. | 08:56 |
pajamian | ok, I'm still having problems ... here's what's happening ... I've installed ubuntu gutsy and it boots up fine, then I run the upgrades and it freezes with a blank screen after logging in (blank is background color with mouse pointer that can be moved) so I think one of the packages that was upgraded is causing problems. Is there a way I can "downgrade" all those packages back to the base version without having to re-install ubuntu aga | 08:56 |
pajamian | in? Then I can experiment with a divide and conquor approach to find out which package is causing the problem? | 08:56 |
Jaggz- | well, you have bsd experience over me :) | 08:56 |
Jaggz- | I started in QNX several years before linux, actually.. but I didn't do any admin work so I really didn't learn anything (it was at my work) | 08:57 |
mavi- | Jaggz-: did you start with rh4.2 to? =) | 08:57 |
Jaggz- | no, slackware | 08:57 |
genewitch | pajamian one second | 08:57 |
Jaggz- | I don't think rh was around when I started linux | 08:57 |
pajamian | ok | 08:57 |
pajamian | I started with RH5.2, I think | 08:57 |
mavi- | sure was | 08:57 |
mavi- | RH was earlier then slack iirc | 08:58 |
unop | bullgard1, you sure you got the right permissions on the share \\md97600\freigegebenMD | 08:58 |
unop | ? | 08:58 |
smackywolf | oh hey, and i think PM might be the culprit here. only problem is how to fix it. i get unrecognised disk label errors from gparted when I run it from cl | 08:58 |
Jaggz- | what's up with logging into grub and cat /etc/shadow? | 08:58 |
scguy318 | Jaggz-: worked with embedded real-time stuff? | 08:58 |
smackywolf | which is odd, seeing as the problem was around before PM | 08:58 |
Jaggz- | scguy, no.. multi-line bbs in L.A. | 08:59 |
unop | bullgard1, i don't see "access denied" being applicable to your $HOME dir .. have you tried smbmount/smbget to trouble shoot this? | 08:59 |
genewitch | pajamian upon cursory inspection, it appears that flyback et al are your best choice | 08:59 |
scguy318 | Jaggz-: interesting | 08:59 |
genewitch | but nothing doing about reverting installed packages | 08:59 |
pajamian | flyback? | 08:59 |
unop | smackywolf, how big is the parition at /dev/sda1 ? | 08:59 |
genewitch | pajamian if it's an x issue, try getting the xorg package that everyone spams in here... anyone know it? the one that resets your xorg.conf? | 09:00 |
Jaggz- | mavi, I have some RH systems still, to this day.. but they're being replaced .. well.. not really -- I'm chatting :) | 09:00 |
lxuser | ceck connection | 09:00 |
genewitch | pajamian http://code.google.com/p/flyback/ | 09:00 |
bullgard1 | unop: No, I am not sure. Because I do not know how do you define "the right permissions". The file 'config' which I am trying to access, has the mode 0644. | 09:00 |
smackywolf | unop: i guess you mean hda1/ | 09:00 |
unop | smackywolf, aye,. sorry | 09:00 |
Jaggz- | I installed this ext-fs program in windows, and thus far it's wonderful | 09:00 |
genewitch | unop just disclosed he has too much money. | 09:01 |
Jaggz- | went in, in XP, and edited my grub.lst :) | 09:01 |
Jaggz- | okay.. well I'm going to go.. gotta work on this stuff | 09:01 |
smackywolf | unop: atm, something like 63.50, there's a second partition now that's 11.03 | 09:01 |
smackywolf | Jaggz-: that dirty hack can break things | 09:01 |
smackywolf | it's useful though | 09:01 |
Jaggz- | uhoh | 09:01 |
genewitch | knoppix can do the same thing, can't it? | 09:01 |
genewitch | Jaggz- | 09:01 |
Jaggz- | ta ta gene | 09:01 |
Jaggz- | scguy, before I go.. do you work with embedded systems? | 09:02 |
smackywolf | Jaggz-: it can break things, but i've been using it about a year with one minor issue in that time which was simple to resolve. so don't stress too much | 09:02 |
Jaggz- | thanks :) | 09:02 |
unop | bullgard1, shared folders can have share-level (smb) permissions + whatever permissions are set on the filesystem (by ntfs, extx, etc) .. you should see if that shared folder is freely accessible first | 09:02 |
pajamian | genewitch: any chance of possibly being able to troubleshoot the problem from the other end? desertc was gonna have a look at my messages log to see if anything jumped out. | 09:02 |
unop | genewitch, how did i disclose my financial status here eh? :> | 09:02 |
Jaggz- | I'd like this ventilator company to provide options to vary the rate of breathing | 09:02 |
genewitch | smackywolf Jaggz-: i'd imagine screwing with NTFS in linux is a lot more dangerous than screwing with ext3 in windows | 09:02 |
GeorgeA | Themes doesn't exist in my System menu, how can i get it? | 09:03 |
smackywolf | genewitch: *shrugs* tool was made by OSS devs. so it's not much different | 09:03 |
genewitch | guys, what's the apt-get command to reset xorg? | 09:03 |
bullgard1 | unop: I need to inform myself about smbmount/smbget before I can answer your question. But please note: File transfer works all right in the opposite direction without my deeper knowledge of smbmount/smbget. | 09:03 |
unop | smackywolf, from what i can see, you have some free-space at the end of the disk -- it just doesn't show up in the paritioner because a parition hasn't yet been defined | 09:03 |
Jaggz- | gene, there's some positive thing to learn about privacy of your own internal workings.. but I'm not sure what it is. | 09:03 |
smackywolf | unop: technically it should show as free space, hrm? | 09:03 |

smackywolf | unop: oh, wai. nevermind | 09:04 |
* smackywolf nods to genewitch | 09:04 |
Jaggz- | I guess people don't rely on my private things right? | 09:04 |
GeorgeA | nvm it's "appearance" :| | 09:04 |
smackywolf | well, what's a good tool to fix that with? fsck doesn't want to know about it | 09:04 |
Jaggz- | is there an irc network that automatically msg's you spelling corrections? | 09:04 |
Jaggz- | I mean.. I don't need it myself. ;} | 09:04 |
genewitch | pajamian i'd be willing to lay money on it being an xorg.conf issue. i'd love to help you, but i am trying to get drunk. logs are not conducive to that activity | 09:04 |
smackywolf | Jaggz-: not that i know of. but some clients (like xchat) can have spelling checkers | 09:05 |
genewitch | so so sorry. :-( | 09:05 |

Jaggz- | heh | 09:05 |

Jaggz- | I'd love to get into AI but I never have | 09:05 |
smackywolf | Jaggz-: you can test it on my irc network XD | 09:05 |
bullgard1 | unop: My remote smb.conf file includes a line "read only = no". | 09:05 |
Jaggz- | were I to do something I'd want it to be more than simple spell checking | 09:05 |
Jaggz- | I'm not sure why we don't have AI bots all over irc | 09:05 |
smackywolf | Jaggz-: like destroy the world? | 09:06 |
napster^ | I have xitrix mini-frame(originally installed with ubuntu) computers and, Some in bios hard disk can be detected, while others can't. Now, when hard disk can be detected WinXP can be installed, if not Windows cannot continue. | 09:06 |
genewitch | Jaggz- it wouldn't be AI, it'd be simple search and run a macro. but it'd invade privacy a bit | 09:06 |
pajamian | maybe what I need to do is install again and make a copy of my xorg.conf before upgrading | 09:06 |
smackywolf | Jaggz-: because they are annoying and people abuse them | 09:06 |
Jaggz- | well.. the spelling one would be standard (however standard spell checking works).. | 09:06 |
RobotGuy | What package do I need to install so I can "make xconfig" for kernels? | 09:06 |
smackywolf | pajamian: just look around in your xorg directory. you may find there's automatically backup copies | 09:06 |
Jaggz- | levenshtein distance? | 09:06 |
pajamian | actually, I bet the package that changed it may have made a copy | 09:06 |
pajamian | yep | 09:06 |
jhend60 | ok i fixed the prob i set the bits to 32 manually | 09:06 |
un0p | smackywolf, did you get my last posts? | 09:06 |
jhend60 | that was my problem | 09:07 |
Jaggz- | they should be better than levenshtein (that's the only one I've had any experience with :) | 09:07 |
genewitch | Jaggz- a program loads a hastable with all the properly spelled words and compares each block of text to the hashtable, if there's any mismatches, you'd trigger a /msg to the user | 09:07 |
smackywolf | un0p: nope. if they were pm'd i'm not reg'd | 09:07 |
=== smackywolf is now known as Smacky_Wolf |
genewitch | Jaggz- i could write a bot in java in about 40 minutes | 09:07 |
un0p | smackywolf, well, that would depend on the partitioner (i guess) and/or it's implementation | 09:07 |
un0p | smackywolf, i'd try creating a new partition with fdisk if i were you | 09:07 |
Jaggz- | gene, cool.. make them correct it themselves :) | 09:07 |
un0p | bullgard1, share access (smb/cifs atleast) works only unidirectionally -- if you can access a remote share freely, it doesn't mean the same is true vice-versa | 09:07 |
Jaggz- | TransWorldIRC: Chat in any language | 09:07 |
Smacky_Wolf | un0p: sounds like a plan. but fdisk won't touch my other disk at all | 09:07 |
genewitch | pajamian you chasing a rabbit now (bug)? | 09:07 |
Smacky_Wolf | pajamian: take a dive around /etc/X11/ | 09:08 |
un0p | Smacky_Wolf, not unless you intentionally delete the partition | 09:08 |
Jaggz- | tell me, what should you do before you give someone an idea? | 09:08 |
pajamian | who knows, I'm just praying it's not hardware, I've already replaced the HDD and RAM on this bos. | 09:08 |
genewitch | smacky try doing a knoppix-std boot or something and see if you can't at least back it up before repartitioning | 09:08 |
napster^ | I have xitrix mini-frame(originally installed with ubuntu) computers and, Some in bios hard disk can be detected, while others can't. Now, when hard disk can be detected WinXP can be installed, if not Windows cannot continue. | 09:08 |
pajamian | Smacky_Wolf: I'm looking, only 1 file resembling xorg.conf in there | 09:08 |
pajamian | and that's xorg.conf | 09:08 |
Smacky_Wolf | genewitch: there's windows on there already. | 09:08 |
Jaggz- | like, they stole my car-brake energy reclamation idea -- putting the energy of braking into battery storage | 09:08 |
Smacky_Wolf | pajamian: awh. fail x.x. nothing like 12.3.07xorg? | 09:09 |
un0p | napster^, that's a question to ask in ##windows | 09:09 |
jhend60 | an1 no how to fix huge text on login screen on kubuntu? | 09:09 |
genewitch | jhend60 after you log in does it look normal? | 09:09 |
jhend60 | yes | 09:09 |
rne1224 | hello | 09:09 |
jhend60 | just logon screen(KDM) | 09:09 |
Jaggz- | (which would, I imagine, lessen the load of the alternator and thereby indirectly saving fuel) Or in the case of electric vehicles the return is obvious. | 09:09 |
rne1224 | I have a problem | 09:09 |
Smacky_Wolf | pajamian: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg - may fix your issues. it'll take you to the curse based conf thingy | 09:10 |
rne1224 | I was wandering where can I install the latest drivers for Intel 945 | 09:10 |
pajamian | Smacky_Wolf: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/53280/ | 09:10 |
rne1224 | I want to run crystal space | 09:10 |
rne1224 | but it seems to be a driver issue | 09:10 |
rne1224 | that I can solve | 09:10 |
jhend60 | rne1224 | 09:10 |
rne1224 | yeah | 09:11 |
jhend60 | get xorg video server thing | 09:11 |
jhend60 | it has the drivers for that series | 09:11 |
jhend60 | i just got it | 09:11 |
Jaggz- | gene, thanks for sharing the spelling-error finder method.. so simple. | 09:11 |
jhend60 | ill get link | 09:11 |
genewitch | !enter | 09:11 |
ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 09:11 |
genewitch | jhend60 :-p | 09:11 |
Jaggz- | how many buckets would you use?? | 09:11 |
rne1224 | jhend60: thanks ....let me try that | 09:11 |
genewitch | Jaggz- buckets? you mean hashtables? | 09:11 |
Jaggz- | is, perhaps, some type of tree even more efficient? | 09:11 |
Jaggz- | how many buckets in the hash table | 09:11 |
bullgard1 | un0p: I know that the file transfer is unilateral. But I have set up my Samba in the LAN without any reference to smbmount and smbget, and it works in one direction. I have told you the relevant smb.conf's attribute. -- man smbmout: "smbmount is deprecated and not maintained any longer." Why do you recommend it to me? | 09:12 |
jhend60 | http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/x11/xserver-xorg-video-intel | 09:12 |
Jaggz- | perhaps a percentage of the total vocabulary count | 09:12 |
genewitch | Jaggz- for the dictionaries i've used, java can do a full hashtable search in about .03 seconds | 09:12 |
BetaTest | !vmware | 09:12 |
ubotu | VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 09:12 |
genewitch | If you code it in C, you'd get it in about a tenth of that | 09:12 |
rne1224 | jhend60: thanks so much...you save me from dual booting into windows | 09:12 |
rne1224 | :) | 09:12 |
Jaggz- | yeah, I'd be doing it in C | 09:12 |
knight__ | hi | 09:13 |
pajamian | Smacky_Wolf: ok, I ran that and am now rebooting... | 09:13 |
rne1224 | jhend60: do you run crystal space? | 09:13 |
knight__ | guys | 09:13 |
jhend60 | i am a noob... | 09:13 |
un0p | bullgard1, just as a means of troubleshooting, thats all -- if you can access the remote share and copy files locally with smbmount/smbget, then you can rule out errors with the network and permissions | 09:13 |
knight__ | i need ur help | 09:13 |
rne1224 | jhend60: what kind of card are you using? | 09:14 |
jhend60 | Whats crystal space? i just downloaded kubuntu off their site | 09:14 |
jhend60 | Intel 915M | 09:14 |
jhend60 | mobile | 09:14 |
rekon | !grub | 09:14 |
ubotu | 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 | 09:14 |
pajamian | Smacky_Wolf: no dice, still same problem :-( | 09:14 |
jhend60 | just got xorg video drivers for intel | 09:14 |
rne1224 | ok...thanks | 09:14 |
erUSUL | jhend60: crystal space is a 3d game engine | 09:15 |
jhend60 | oh | 09:15 |
rne1224 | is cool... | 09:15 |
jhend60 | well i probably dont have it | 09:15 |
jhend60 | ill try ctrl alt numpad key | 09:15 |
Ademan | hey is there a way to get a "cleaner" list of the packages you have installed than dpkg -l ? | 09:15 |
genewitch | GREP IS YOUR FRIEND | 09:16 |
jhend60 | grep? | 09:16 |
jhend60 | iam new to all this and i use kubuntu | 09:16 |
Ademan | mmm grep | 09:16 |
napster^ | I have xitrix mini-frame(originally installed with ubuntu) computers and, Some in bios hard disk can be detected, while others can't. Now, when hard disk can be detected WinXP can be installed, if not Windows cannot continue. | 09:16 |
Ademan | jhend60: it's a command line tool to search for text *basically* | 09:16 |
genewitch | oh. i forget sometimes that you new people like graphics. i have no clue how to show you what programs you have installed | 09:16 |
rne1224 | so...is anyone out there that is running crystal space in Gutsy with Intel 945 | 09:16 |
rne1224 | ? | 09:16 |
genewitch | jhend60 add/remove programs, click the radio button that says "installed" | 09:16 |
genewitch | rather than available or all | 09:17 |
Slart | Ademan: I think you can get a list of installed packages from synaptic | 09:17 |
BetaTest | How do I see the Kernel I'm using? | 09:17 |
pajamian | heh, windoze "converts" | 09:17 |
un0p | Ademan, dpkg -l | cut -c 3-20 | grep -i keyword | 09:17 |
Smacky_Wolf | pajamian: suck x.x try apt-get remove xorg --purge or some such? | 09:17 |
Slart | BetaTest: lsb_release -a, or uname -a | 09:17 |
Ademan | uname -a will get you it, and more | 09:17 |
BetaTest | Many thanks | 09:17 |
* Smacky_Wolf isn't really sure, had to mess around with xorg for ages in the early days, and then confing it got reallly easy | 09:18 |
pajamian | ummmm, ok, then install it again, I guess? | 09:18 |
* Smacky_Wolf nods | 09:18 |
Smacky_Wolf | but purge | 09:18 |
rne1224 | so...is anyone out there that is running crystal space in Gutsy with Intel 94 | 09:18 |
genewitch | un0p i knew you'd know, somehow | 09:18 |
Slart | BetaTest: sorry.. lsb_release doesn't say what kernel you're using.. uname -a will though | 09:18 |
pajamian | I suppose I can comment out the updates repos in the sources.list to get the older version from the CD too. | 09:18 |
Smacky_Wolf | pajamian: purge, just in case you don't know, will kill conf files. and recreate them | 09:18 |
un0p | genewitch, know what eh? :) | 09:18 |
Ademan | un0p: lol, thanks, i was looking to avoid all that crap, i cobbled together a solution using awk, but i was wondering if there was an *easy* way, mostly because dpkg -l piles a bunch of crapola at the beggining (a bunch of pipes and slashes and stuff to "dress it up" i guess) | 09:18 |
Smacky_Wolf | when you reinstall | 09:18 |
genewitch | you'd know how to use grep. you seem like an oldschooler | 09:19 |
rne1224 | so...is anyone out there that is running crystal space in Gutsy with Intel 945?...please help | 09:19 |
pajamian | Smacky_Wolf: ok | 09:19 |
Slart | rne1224: wait a couple of minutes before repeating.. people get annoyed if you spam to much | 09:19 |
Smacky_Wolf | genewitch: i can grep and am not an oldschooler o.o | 09:19 |
rne1224 | sorry | 09:19 |
genewitch | pajamian if there's something more i can do for you query me, i have a hard time backtracing the channel text | 09:19 |
pajamian | genewitch: ok, thanks | 09:20 |
Smacky_Wolf | unop: did I miss anything from yo? i'm in my regged nick now, if you want to PM | 09:20 |
Ademan | un0p: just for the record, i discovered dpkg-query (which i think dpkg just backends to anyways) but there's a --showformat option that i can use to define the output format :-) | 09:20 |
rne1224 | by the way I wasn't spaming, but it won't happen again | 09:20 |
genewitch | that goes for everyone, if i said i could help and i'm not responding query me | 09:20 |
un0p | Smacky_Wolf, errm, i dont think i posted anything to you since last :) | 09:20 |
Smacky_Wolf | un0p: cool. thanks for the assist =) | 09:21 |
un0p | Ademan, there's also apt-show-versions | 09:21 |
Slart | rne1224: hehe.. I was using spamming in a broad meaning | 09:21 |
Smacky_Wolf | and to you other guys, too | 09:21 |
rne1224 | cool | 09:21 |
rne1224 | no problems :) | 09:21 |
un0p | Smacky_Wolf, yw | 09:21 |
* Smacky_Wolf goes digging to see if he can find a knoppix iso | 09:22 |
bullgard1 | un0p: The syntax of smbmount is "smbmount {service} {mount-point} [-o options]" What do I have to insert for '{service}'? | 09:22 |
pajamian | ok, rebooting again ... | 09:22 |
Slart | bullgard1: I think that's the share name | 09:23 |
Slart | bullgard1: or.. wait.. perhaps not.. nevermind | 09:23 |
genewitch | Smacky_Wolf i recommend knoppix-std | 09:25 |
Smacky_Wolf | genewitch: i have V5 apparantly | 09:25 |
Slart | bullgard1: here's an example smbmount //server/share /localdir -o username=user,password=pass,uid=500,gid=500 | 09:25 |
pajamian | Smacky_Wolf: nope, same thing still | 09:25 |
un0p | bullgard1, you can accomplish something similar like this -- sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=user,password=pass //host/share /media/mountpoint | 09:26 |
genewitch | un0p i've never had luck with that particular command, but i know that's correct... haven't had to use it in years | 09:26 |
GeorgeA | how can I see which program is using which port? | 09:26 |
un0p | genewitch, yep, doesn't fuse help your poor brain from trying to remember which switch to which command and avoid going through manpages and such :) | 09:27 |
genewitch | un0p i just clicked "network" in the places menu and it came up | 09:27 |
genewitch | GeorgeA type "netstat" in a terminal window | 09:28 |
un0p | genewitch, wait till you come across a desktop that does have a GUI or better, doesn't have "network places" :) | 09:28 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, thanks | 09:28 |
genewitch | GeorgeA that might not be what you're looking for... i'm trying to remember the local packet sniffer i used to use | 09:29 |
genewitch | GeorgeA let me know if that's what you want, if not i can recommend a few other programs | 09:30 |
bullgard1 | un0p: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/31423/ This result is not different from the other two methods. | 09:30 |
napster^ | if my unit doesn't have samba in it, where can i download samba? | 09:30 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, what I want is a program that lets me know which program is using port X, because am trying to run shoutcast and it's telling me the port is being used, i want to know what's using it so i can close it | 09:30 |
genewitch | port 5800 is in use? | 09:31 |
GeorgeA | 8000 | 09:31 |
un0p | bullgard1, you'll need to supply a username and password there -- refer to my last post to you for a howto | 09:31 |
GeorgeA | is the one shoutcast runs off of | 09:31 |
genewitch | GeorgeA there's no way to tell without having data being run through it | 09:32 |
crwlr | i think bullgard1's servers are crashing!!! | 09:32 |
genewitch | 8000 is an alternate web server port though | 09:32 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, lsof -i did the trick | 09:32 |
genewitch | GeorgeA cool, i'll write that down. what was the offending program? | 09:33 |
genewitch | split! | 09:33 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, apparently it was already running lol, but it was showing in my ps aux, which is weird. | 09:33 |
un0p | jeez | 09:33 |
crwlr | WHOA! SPAMMERS!!! | 09:33 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, netsplit | 09:33 |
crwlr | georgea: netsplit? like a banana split? | 09:34 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, it's fine now, i restarted it :) | 09:34 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, true story | 09:34 |
dgjones | !netsplit | crwlr | 09:34 |
ubotu | crwlr: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 09:34 |
genewitch | crwlr slightly less delicious than a banana split | 09:34 |
genewitch | that was lsof -l? | 09:34 |
GeorgeA | -i | 09:35 |
genewitch | i don't have lsof :-( | 09:35 |
crwlr | well i'm ready for a banana split! makin myself hungry... sudo mkme bananasplitwithicecream | 09:35 |
genewitch | su maybe | 09:35 |
napster^ | If my unit doesn't have samba in it, where can i download samba? | 09:35 |
GeorgeA | nope I didn't need to. | 09:35 |
genewitch | napster rpmfind.net | 09:35 |
genewitch | my laptop is running fedora | 09:35 |
genewitch | >.< | 09:35 |
napster^ | how? | 09:35 |
dgjones | !samba | napster^ | 09:35 |
ubotu | napster^: Samba 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. | 09:35 |
genewitch | napster^ http://rpmfind.net | 09:36 |
dgjones | napster^, samba is available in synaptic | 09:36 |
dgjones | !rpm | genewitch | 09:36 |
ubotu | genewitch: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 09:36 |
napster^ | dgjones: I'm already there. | 09:36 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, ah :) heh | 09:36 |
napster^ | genewitch: will try that. | 09:36 |
genewitch | napster^ evidently it's in synaptic... add/remove programs and toss it in | 09:36 |
bullgard1 | un0p: Adding -o and username and password still results in the same Access denied response. | 09:37 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, could the sniffer u used be: nmap? | 09:37 |
genewitch | bullgard1 can you connect to the share from another windows machine | 09:37 |
genewitch | GeorgeA nosir, it's one that's been ported to windows, though. it's on ym laptop's windows drive. ettercap will also work though | 09:37 |
genewitch | although ettercap is a lot more greyhat than the one i am thinking of | 09:37 |
GeorgeA | genewitch, wireshark? | 09:38 |
genewitch | GeorgeA could be :-) | 09:38 |
GeorgeA | hehe | 09:38 |
bullgard1 | genewitch: Not at the moment. My LAN consists at the moment of two laptops only and a router to ADSL. | 09:38 |
crwlr | for what, georgea? | 09:38 |
un0p | bullgard1, if you are positive that you have the correct syntax for the commands you are using there -- then there's a definite problem with how your shared folder //md97600/freigegebenMD is setup -- very tight permissions or no user probably | 09:38 |
genewitch | bullgard1 or it could be a program blocking port 135/139 | 09:38 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, I just wanted to see which program is running on which port (lsof -i did the trick).. but now we're talking about sniffers | 09:39 |
genewitch | lots of stupid consumer firewalls block those ports for no good reason | 09:39 |
Ssam | i dont noe hwo to use my scanner | 09:39 |
Ssam | how* can anyone help me | 09:39 |
pajamian | ok, gonna have to just re-install and go from there, heh, I can't see any other way about it. | 09:39 |
bullgard1 | genewitch: How can I determine what prgram blocks port 135/139? | 09:39 |
kahrytan | Anyone know the VGA code for Grub for 1440x900 resolution? | 09:39 |
crwlr | ahh...i use a different OS for that. trying to remember the name of it... | 09:39 |
genewitch | bullgard1 what OS is on the machine you're trying to get files from? windows xp? | 09:39 |
genewitch | Knoppix-std, crwlr | 09:40 |
bullgard1 | genewitch: Both machines run with Ubuntu 7.10 | 09:40 |
Slart | kahrytan: google for vga display mode or something like that.. there are lists out there | 09:40 |
crwlr | no....genewitch...i cant think of it. hang on, let me look at my cd | 09:40 |
genewitch | un0p isn't there a better way than samba for two linux machins to share? | 09:40 |
pewpewpew | kahrytan: Mode 0x0365: 1440x900 (+5760), 24 bits | 09:40 |
dgjones | genewitch, i use nfs for between linux machines | 09:40 |
genewitch | bull do you have BOTH samba servers running? | 09:41 |
Slart | genewitch: nfs or ssh both work... nfs has some security concerns though | 09:41 |
genewitch | NMBD and SMBD? | 09:41 |
kahrytan | pewpewpew➲ so vga=0x0365? | 09:41 |
un0p | genewitch, I don't consider anything better or worse off -- nfs is an alternative | 09:41 |
crwlr | backtrack 2 genewitch georgea | 09:41 |
pewpewpew | kahrytan: i think so | 09:41 |
genewitch | crwlr i'm reading | 09:41 |
crwlr | there's another one but i'd have to get the name of it and i cant find the cd | 09:42 |
pewpewpew | i'm not a 100%, so if its a life or death situation don't rely on me :} | 09:42 |
TheLynx | anyone here had problems restarting X with ctrl+alt+backspace? the windows are closing but the computer hangs shortly afterwards | 09:43 |
crwlr | thelynx: none so far...got gutsy on there? | 09:43 |
xalanthyr | hi there, anbody knows how to run EUO on ubuntu? | 09:44 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, i had it.. but I'm not gonna install an OS for just one thing :P | 09:44 |
TheLynx | crwlr: yep. gutsy. sadly on a hp laptop with amd64 with ATI radeon graphics | 09:44 |
crwlr | georgea: i just use the livecd | 09:44 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, yeah i guess livecd through a vbox would be fine :) | 09:44 |
bullgard4 | http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/31424/ doesn't set the permissions very tight, right? | 09:44 |
crwlr | thelynx: i have gutsy on a laptop with a p4 and an ati chipset, and i havent had any problems | 09:44 |
genewitch | that's how i run k-std, crwlr | 09:45 |
Jaggz- | okay | 09:45 |
Jaggz- | 7 milliseconds to look up one word | 09:45 |
Jaggz- | "hello" | 09:45 |
Jaggz- | with 100000 buckets | 09:45 |
crwlr | georgea: i didnt use vbox for that...hmmm...course i only set it up as a nat network so it wouldn't detect my network adapter | 09:45 |
genewitch | buckets? | 09:45 |
genewitch | in what language, Jaggz- | 09:45 |
Jaggz- | gene, hash tables store things in buckets | 09:45 |
bullgard4 | un0p: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/31424/ doesn't set the permissions very tight, right? | 09:46 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, oh right.. forgot about that.. man bridging is a pain in vbox... | 09:46 |
TheLynx | crwlr: everything else works. or well.. the graphics flickers etc etc and fullscreen video is only possible using xine. this due to poor amd drivers. still a known issue I suppose | 09:46 |
extern | I can't get direct rendering working on ubuntu 64. I have ATI x700 pro. When I do glxinfo | grep direct, I get a several similar errors, which look like this: libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib32/dri/r300_dri.so failed (/usr/lib32/dri/r300_dri.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32) | 09:46 |
Jaggz- | it's possible to have some other method of handling collisions, but in general they use buckets. | 09:46 |
crwlr | what kind of laptop is it, thelynx? | 09:46 |
genewitch | Jaggz- yeah i get it, what language | 09:46 |
TheLynx | crwlr: hp 6715s | 09:46 |
Jaggz- | ie. "hello" and "mumbojumbo" might hash to the same value | 09:46 |
crwlr | georgea: very true. only thing i vbox is winblows...whenever i need to | 09:47 |
Jaggz- | coded this in C | 09:47 |
TheLynx | crwlr: amd64, ati radeon x1250 | 09:47 |
crwlr | thelynx: hmm...which drivers did you install? | 09:47 |
GeorgeA | crwlr, same here :) | 09:47 |
genewitch | 7 ms seems slow | 09:47 |
Jaggz- | used my existing library of hash tables.. I loaded /usr/share/dict/words into the hash table then timed looking up the word "hello" | 09:47 |
genewitch | java's default can do it faster | 09:47 |
Jaggz- | I also am using gettimeofday() to get the timing but I'm not sure how accurate it is.. this would be better off looking up multiple words | 09:47 |
Ssam | anyone know how i can get my scanner to work? | 09:47 |
genewitch | lemme pastebucket my source for some weird hash lookup, one second | 09:47 |
Slart | Ssam: check if the scanner is supported by sane.. I think the url is www.sane.org... not sure though | 09:48 |
pajamian | Ssam: what brand and model scanner? | 09:48 |
crwlr | thelynx: ATI and linux go together like...nothing. ubuntu barely supports ati, so if you installed the restricted drivers and then the effects started happenin...then u gotta remove those | 09:48 |
Slart | Ssam: sorry.. http://www.sane-project.org/ | 09:48 |
TheLynx | crwlr: the ones from ATI. compiz works but the problem with ctrl+alt+backspace is new to me. been trying to find anything related to the problems on forums, but still confused. does this has something to do with the hibernate issue with ATI and linux? | 09:48 |
crwlr | hrmmm... | 09:49 |
genewitch | Jaggz- http://pastebin.com/m5f873d57 | 09:49 |
Jaggz- | microseconds, excuse me | 09:49 |
TheLynx | crwlr: guess so. do you recommend using the open source driver? | 09:49 |
GeorgeA | that's some difference Jaggz- lol :) | 09:49 |
Jaggz- | did I say ms? :) | 09:49 |
Jaggz- | did you just code that up? | 09:50 |
TheLynx | crwlr: can't do much with the hardware. using a laptop from work. otherwise I would returned it | 09:50 |
crwlr | thelynx: i dont recommend when it comes to ati. i had an ati in my desktop, and i got ticked off at it cause the effects wouldn't work. so...i ditched ati and went with nvidia. you will just have to check wikis and google variations of your problems because i'm not an expert with that | 09:50 |
extern | has anyone had any problems with ATI drivers on Ubuntu 64? | 09:50 |
Ssam | well i was there.....but it didnt help i dont noe how to install it its very complicated for me | 09:50 |
genewitch | Jaggz- nah that's old. million monkeys pounding for a million years simulator | 09:50 |
crwlr | extern: ATI and UBUNTU don't mix well | 09:50 |
* genewitch is afk | 09:51 |
Slart | extern: not just 64-bit.. ati takes some work, I understand | 09:51 |
Jaggz- | lol | 09:51 |
iceman | hi,i like this channel ,and thank jaggz,genewitch,and all other people, | 09:51 |
TheLynx | crwlr: ok. thanks anyway. it's just too bad with the ATI and linux issue. never had any major hardware/driver related problems before | 09:51 |
osfameron | crwlr, Slart: got any reference for that? (I'm thinking of getting an HP S3240, which I think has an ATI graphics card... :-( ) | 09:51 |
Jaggz- | ./dict 100000 hello there test how are you ..... Looked up 6 words in ms:1160 | 09:51 |
extern | has anyone got any useful links about ATI and ubuntu? | 09:51 |
Narlzac85 | has the situation with ATI not improved in the newer driver releases? | 09:51 |
Jaggz- | of course, this is just some hash table implementation I got offline years ago and then modified like mad | 09:51 |
extern | I had it working some time ago, but I reinstalled ubuntu recently | 09:52 |
un0p | bullgard1, what happens when you try this out? smbclient //server/share | 09:52 |
TheLynx | extern: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Main_Page | 09:52 |
Jaggz- | it's faster with less buckets.. ! | 09:52 |
un0p | bullgard1, also - http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/FastStart.html#id327959 | 09:52 |
Slart | osfameron: I'm just going by the number of "ARRGGGHHSS".... and "STUPID PIECE OF S**T GRAPHICS CARD" questions we get here in this channel =) | 09:52 |
crwlr | osfameron: nvidia is a breeze to setup but if you get ati, then ur going to have to fight to install it. i would suggest getting one with nvidia. i threw my ati card in the garbage | 09:52 |
extern | thank you, I'll check it out | 09:52 |
osfameron | Slart: heh :-( | 09:52 |
Slart | !ati | extern | 09:53 |
ubotu | extern: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 09:53 |
Slart | extern: that's the only one I know of | 09:53 |
iceman | Slart, where are you from | 09:53 |
Jaggz- | the dictionary load-time is slower with less buckets.. with 100 buckets it takes several seconds (due to the inefficiency of adding entries to linked lists most likely) | 09:53 |
Jaggz- | afk | 09:53 |
Slart | iceman: Sweden, why? | 09:53 |
TheLynx | yeah. that link is useful | 09:53 |
iceman | curiosity | 09:54 |
TheLynx | I'm from sweden too... (btw) | 09:54 |
larsrohdin | Hi! We are having some troubles with our dhcp-server running on ubuntu server. We have two servers that share a scope of ip-addresses, but the clients get leases from both servers, at the same time (!). They also appaer several time in each servers lease-lists. They get the same IP from both. This creates problems for our thin clients session. Have anyone heard of this? | 09:54 |
crwlr | of course, i found out they blacklisted my ati card, so maybe i am just mad about that scenario. you all other ati users might have better luck | 09:54 |
bullgard1 | un0p: "detlef@Amilo7600:~$ smbclient //md97600/freigegebenMD; Password: ; session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE" | 09:54 |
pajamian | well, the latest news as of a few months ago is that AMD is opening up the specs for ATI cards so here's hoping that we get some better drivers. | 09:54 |
Slart | extern: it's not hopeless getting an ati card to work.. most people actually make it.. but it's just a little more work than nvidia or intel at the moment | 09:55 |
TheLynx | pajamian: sounds like a good idea | 09:55 |
extern | yeah, I had it working some time ago | 09:55 |
extern | but I can't remember which guide I followed | 09:55 |
Jaggz- | iceman, glad to help | 09:55 |
Jaggz- | if I did | 09:55 |
Slart | larsrohdin: you have 2 dhcp servers on the same net? didn't know you could do that.. | 09:56 |
pajamian | I would recommend intel if you're buying new, there are great OS drivers for that, but I wouldn't toss out an nvidia or ATI card that I already ahve. | 09:56 |
kahrytan | Ive got question .. Does Ubuntu uSplash theme even support widescreen resolutions? | 09:56 |
larsrohdin | Slart: sure, they have half the net each | 09:56 |
larsrohdin | otherwise the fastest one gets the lease | 09:57 |
larsrohdin | but these should get half | 09:57 |
Slart | larsrohdin: just out of curiosity.. how do the dhcp servers know which clients to serve? | 09:57 |
