prince_jammyssMonk: ok now be careful because any changes will affect those partitions00:00
prince_jammyssMonk: let's look around first and see what happened00:00
sMonkyup, I just tried to use dolphin on my root folder, and it says permission denied00:00
sMonkbut I can get my home folder00:00
crashedAnyone know how to fix TV Time?00:01
prince_jammyssMonk: ls -ld /mnt/workspace/dev/vboxdrv00:01
sMonkNo such file or directory00:03
prince_jammyssMonk: ok i think what has to be done is to chroot into that partition00:03
sMonkmy home folder has a .Virtualbox folder.. no help?00:04
sMonkbut Dolphin still says that Access is denied to my /root folder00:04
prince_jammyssMonk: close dolphin00:05
sMonkok00:05
stdin/dev is a virtual filesystem created by the kernel, it won't have anything (useful) unless it's on the real root fs00:05
prince_jammysstdin:: is this correct now? mount -t proc none /mnt/workspace/proc00:05
daSKreechprince_jammys: /dev doesn't really exist00:06
stdinthat would work yeah, also "mount -t proc proc /whatecer"00:06
sMonkstdin I have a pastbin of the problem he's helping me with, do you want to see it?00:06
prince_jammysstdin: followed by mount -o bind /dev /mnt/workspace/dev00:06
daSKreechprince_jammys: /proc doesn't really exist either :)00:06
prince_jammysdaSKreech: right, so we chroot into his / partition00:07
stdinsMonk: yeah00:07
sMonkhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57274/00:07
stdinbinding or mounting a new proc doesn't matter, same effect there00:07
prince_jammyssMonk: mount -t proc none /mnt/workspace/proc00:07
sMonkok00:08
stdinsMonk: how long ago did you install virtualbox?00:08
prince_jammyssMonk: mount -o bind /dev /mnt/workspace/dev00:08
sMonkok00:08
prince_jammyssMonk: chroot /mnt/workspace  /bin/bash00:08
karl_anyone know which package is libsdl?00:09
sMonkok00:09
prince_jammyssMonk: export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"00:09
daSKreechsMonk: might want answer stdin  :)00:09
crashedMan, this TV tuner is making me so frustrated.00:09
daSKreechkarl_: I would assume libsdl00:09
stdin!find libsdl*.so00:10
ubotuFound: libsdl-sound1.2, libsdl-sound1.2-dev00:10
sMonkdaSKreech: what?00:10
sMonkok00:10
prince_jammyssMonk: ok now you should be chrooted00:10
sMonkyup00:10
prince_jammyssMonk: ls -ld /dev/vboxdrv00:11
sMonkno such file or directory00:11
stdin/dev/vboxdrv won't be there unless the virtualbox driver is loaded00:11
prince_jammysah00:11
prince_jammysstdin: do you have a clue what happened there?00:12
sMonklol, yeah, can you tell me nicely how I messed up00:12
stdinnot really, but a bit of exploring seems to be in order00:12
stdinwhat's the permissions of /sbin/klogd ?00:12
prince_jammysstdin: he has a separate home partition00:12
stdin(ls -l /sbin/klogd)00:13
sMonkit's      -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 22948 2007-09-17 16:54 /sbin/klogd00:13
prince_jammysstdin: it all probably began because his user is probably not a member of the group vboxsomethingortheother00:13
MandensMonk: What are the permission of /tmp?00:14
prince_jammysmaybe probably00:14
prince_jammys:)00:14
stdinprince_jammys: that doesn't explain "start-stop-daemon : unable to start /sbin/klogd: permission denied"00:14
prince_jammysstdin: no it doesnt00:14
bobesponjahi00:15
sMonkpermissions of /tmp   drwxrwxrwt00:15
prince_jammysgood00:15
bobesponjaafter using airsnort, my wifi card stopped working, it is not detected anymore :/ any idea how to fix this?00:15
prince_jammyssMonk: keep pasting the owners on everything00:15
Mandenpermissions of / ?00:15
prince_jammyssMonk: paste the whole line00:15
sMonkhold on.. I'll give you a pastbin of the whole root00:15
bobesponjaanyone?00:16
MandenIsn't airsnort to decrypt wireless network encryption?00:16
crashedhow do you use insmod?00:16
crashedinsmod card=200:16
sMonkhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57278/00:16
crashedThrows out errors.00:16
bobesponjaManden: yes it is00:16
bobesponjaManden: I'm not using airsnort anymore, but my wifi card doesn't work anymore now, it doesn't even detect other wireless networks00:18
MandenIt probably overwrites the old drivers.00:18
bobesponjaManden: I see, any idea what I could do to get it back? :)00:19
sMonkprince_jammys: did you get the pastbin?00:19
MandensMonk: the permissions there look alright00:19
crashedEek, nearly got this working.,00:19
prince_jammyssMonk: yeah i'm looking at it00:19
sMonkok00:20

Mandenbobesponja: use your distrobutions package manager to reinstall wireless drivers00:20
sMonkbtw, thanks stdin, prince & Manden00:20
crashedIt's in use, how to I unload that module?00:20
stdinsMonk: try "/etc/init.d/klogd start" see if it throws some error00:20
daSKreechstdin: I missed it is he chrooted?00:21
stdinyeah00:21
sMonkhttp://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57279/00:21
bobesponjaManden: I have "Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG", do you know what's the driver for that? isn't it included in the kernel alreaedy?00:22
stdinright00:22
crashedcrashed@crashed-pc:~$ sudo rmmod saa7134_alsa00:23
crashedERROR: Module saa7134_alsa is in use00:23
crashedAnyone, how do I stop that module?00:23
sMonklinux needs a "restore" setting for users like me00:23
Mandenbobesponja: They're usually modules.  What distrobution are you using?  On SuSE a search for "wireless" in YaST finds the rigth driver.00:23
bobesponjaManden: I'm on kubuntu00:24
prince_jammyspermission denied, and you're root00:24
Mandenprince_jammys: I don't think the issue is directly with klogd.  Permissions must be messed up somewhere else and it waterfalling to klogd00:25
prince_jammyssMonk: brb, pasta is overcooking00:25
sMonklol, np00:26
Mandenbobesponja: You can try searching for "wireless" in whatever package manager Ubuntu uses.  It might be easier to Google, proset ubuntu drivers00:26
coreymon77huh? wifi problems?00:26
coreymon77bobesponja: which card?00:26
coreymon77bobesponja: and whats the matter00:26
bobesponjacoreymon77: : I have "Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG"00:26
MandensMonk: did they already look at the permissions on your home directory?00:26
bobesponjathe matter is that network card doesn't work at all00:27
coreymon77bobesponja: let me guess, mac?00:27
sMonkno, I'll paste them00:27
bobesponjacoreymon77: intel inspiron 640000:27
coreymon77oh00:27
bobesponjadell00:27
coreymon77okay00:27
bobesponjacoreymon77: it used to work great, but after using airsnort for a while, it just stopped working, nno idea if it's related00:28
sMonkpermissions of /home/dale is drwxrwxrwx00:28
coreymon77bobesponja: gutsy?00:28
sMonkdo you need the files in the home folder?00:28
bobesponjacoreymon77: yes00:28
MandensMonk: Did you run chmod 777 -R /home ?00:29
coreymon77bobesponja: what driver were you using before?00:29
sMonkyeah00:29
MandensMonk: If so, then I know the permission.  As a note, that was not a good thing to do, but it doesn't break anything right now.00:29
bobesponjacoreymon77: no idea, the one that comes with kubuntu, it was automatically detected like all intel wifi card00:29
sMonkok00:30
sMonk<-- hangs head in shame00:31
coreymon77bobesponja: give this a try, apt-cache search iwlwifi00:31
MandenIt's fixable00:31
daSKreechsMonk: My friend did a chown -R smonk /00:32
coreymon77bobesponja: that give you anything?00:32
daSKreechreally really messed up his system00:32
sMonkouch00:32
sMonk<-- suddenly not feeling so bad00:32
bobesponjacoreymon77: nothing00:32
MandenMaybe you could delete the contents of the /tmp directory00:32
sMonknothing in it00:33
Mandenok, well that won't work then00:33
sMonklol00:33
daSKreechdelete the nothing!!00:33
MandenOn this post you sent to me, the guy did a chmod 755 / , and he said it fixed it.  However, it seems like a bad idea, and your permissions were alright on /00:34
coreymon77hmm00:34
bobesponjacoreymon77: there is libiw2900:34
coreymon77!info iwlwifi00:34

coreymon77well00:34
coreymon77its not that bad00:35
prince_jammyssMonk: hey00:35
coreymon77we just need to find out if the new driver exists on your system00:35
sMonkI'm here00:35
prince_jammyssMonk: you haven't been doing anything radical? :)00:35
prince_jammyssMonk: just glanced at the screens and saw some -Rs and rms00:35
sMonkno, nothing as of late00:36
coreymon77!info firmware-iwlwifi00:36
ubotuPackage firmware-iwlwifi does not exist in gutsy00:36
sMonkthe only thing I have been doing is google"ing" my mistake, and sifting through lots of german and italian pages... still the only page that looks promising is the first one I found00:37
coreymon77well, there is a new driver00:37
coreymon77im not sure if its part of the system00:37
coreymon77!find firmware-iwlwifi00:38
ubotuPackage/file firmware-iwlwifi does not exist in gutsy00:38
tekstacyDo iPods work well w/ k and amarok?00:39
karl_tekstacy: yes00:39
prince_jammyssMonk: yeah googling is good here00:39
coreymon77bobesponja: i dont want to mess it up even more since im not sure if you have the driver preloaded, so heres the ubuntu wiki page ive been using as refference00:40
tekstacyno need for that stupid itunes?00:40
sMonkthis is still the only decent site I found   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=629613&page=200:40
sMonkon page 1 this person seems to have the same problem as me.00:40
coreymonbobesponja: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/iwlwifi_Intel_3945_4965/gutsy?highlight=%28WifiDocs%29%7C%28AND%29%7C%28ManufacturerModel%2900:41
bobesponjak thanks00:41
MandenYeah, but his sollution doesn't seem to work for you.00:41
sMonkoh00:41
sMonkwont I have to do a chmod 755 on my home dir?00:41
sMonkconsidering I oopsed and did a 777 on it00:41
MandenYou already did a 777 of it, which is more permissive than 75500:42
Mandenif 755 worked, then so should 77700:42
sMonkyeah.. but you said I'll have to get it "back" later00:42
sMonkor is that something else?00:42
MandenYeah, but you should change it back because now anyone can change stuff in your home folder00:43
Manden777 on home folder shouldn't break things.00:43
sMonkah00:43
Mandenhmm, try ll -d /00:44
matt__is the "amd64" compatible with intel pentium d processors?00:44
Mandenor ls -ld /00:44
matt__i find it interesting that the ubuntu disk mentions intel 64 bits, but the kubuntu ones' just mention amd00:44
Mandenmatt__: The amd64 kernel?  No00:45
sMonkdrw-rw-rw- 21 root root00:45
Mandenthat's not right00:45
sMonkoh?00:45
matt__Manden: umm....the disk image for download...00:45
sMonkYAY!! head room00:45
Mandenanyone else who uses Kubuntu, can you ls -ld / ?00:45
daSKreechsMonk: umm You mean headway?00:46
sMonkit should have an "x" at the end right?00:46
Mandenmatt__: I think that it's referring to the kernel.  I don't think the amd64 kernel works with Intel00:46
matt__Manden: that's what i mean...hold on..00:46
sMonk... no.. head room.. I had so much google junk in my head. .now I can loose some of it.. lol00:46
Mandenit should be drwxr-xr-x 21 root root I think00:46
Mandenlose*00:46
matt__Manden: look:00:46
matt__http://mirrors.jgi-psf.org/ubuntu-releases/kubuntu/gutsy/00:46
sMonkthat's what I thought00:47
matt__http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download00:47
prince_jammyssMonk: that guy in the link seems to have had the permissions of his mount points wrong00:47
MandensMonk: One sec though.  Don't want to go too fast.  I use SuSE and Kubuntu is a bit differnt00:47
matt__Manden: see...for ubuntu...it mentions intel as well...but it doesn't for kubuntu...if you catch my drift...00:47
sMonkok00:47
Mandenprince_jammys: Did you see the permissions of his / directory?  I think they're wrong.00:48
sMonkdrw-rw-rw- 21 root root00:48
sMonkdrw-rw-rw- 21 root root 4096 2008-01-06 15:53 /00:48
prince_jammyssMonk: that looks like the problem00:48
MandensMonk: when you type mount what does it tell you?00:48
prince_jammyssMonk: same as the problem described in the link00:48
prince_jammysManden: you know he's chrooted, right?00:49
sMonkhere you go   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/57280/00:49
Mandenprince_jammys: ah00:49
prince_jammysMandon: he chrooted into / from the live cd00:50
sMonkprince_jammys: what do you mean?00:50
Mandenmatt__: I see what you mean.  On the Ubuntu page it looks like the amd64 one will work.  Kubuntu is based on Ubuntu, so it should work, but you might want to google it to be sure.00:50
prince_jammyssMonk: in the web link you posted, the person ended up resolving the problem by changing the permissions of his partition mount points, both / and /home00:50
sMonkyeah00:51
sMonkand tmp00:51
prince_jammyssMonk: now if i do   ls -ld /    i get: drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2008-01-05 15:10 /00:51
prince_jammyssMonk: that's 75500:51
sMonkok00:51
prince_jammyssMonk: yours are 66600:51
prince_jammys:)00:51
sMonkyeah..... hey.. just like I first said.. you think I typed it wrong when I tried to chage the permisions of the Virtualbox?00:52
prince_jammyssMonk: maybe00:53
sMonkcause I tried to chage the Vmbox to 666 to let me use it.. (rather than giving myself permission)00:53
sMonkmaybe I hit / instead00:53
prince_jammyssMonk: now before you change this, what are the permissions of your /home00:53
prince_jammyssMonk: excuse me, your /home/youruser00:53
sMonkdrwxrwxrwx  4 root root00:53
sMonkyeah I got what you ment ;)00:54
sMonklol00:54
prince_jammyssMonk: ok you don't need to sudo right now, right? you're root00:54
sMonkyeah00:54
prince_jammyssMonk: here's my home drwxr-xr-x 71 tantalus tantalus 4096 2008-02-24 18:12 /home/tantalus00:55
prince_jammyssMonk: that's 755, you are 777 and wrong owner00:55
sMonkthat's 755 too00:55
sMonkright00:56
prince_jammyssMonk: 777 shouldn't matter (though it's not good)00:56
sMonkright00:56
prince_jammysit means come get me00:56
prince_jammys:)00:56
sMonkdamn00:56
K`zanHi Folks, what is the command to reconfigure xorg (moved HD to a new machine), I thought it was "apt-cache reconfigure xorg" but apparently not.  TIA00:57
prince_jammyssMonk: ok     chown youruser:youruser /home/youruser00:57
sMonkok, so could the / permissions be my problem?00:57
prince_jammysK`zan: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg00:57
prince_jammyssMonk: both00:57
prince_jammyssMonk: the / definitely00:57
sMonkso type this then   chown dale:dale /home/dale00:57
prince_jammysyes00:57
K`zanprince_jammys: Thanks very much Sir!00:57
sMonkcan't access it..00:58
sMonkno file or dir00:58
prince_jammyssMonk: right00:58
prince_jammyssMonk: just realized00:58
sMonkLiveCD00:58
sMonklol00:58
prince_jammyssMonk: ok note that command because after you do your / you're going to type it in the terminal00:59
sMonkok, so do you think I should try to chmod the / ?00:59
sMonkok00:59
sMonkI won't close this window00:59
prince_jammyssMonk: otherwise, we fix your / but your user still won't be able to log in00:59
sMonkok00:59
prince_jammyssMonk: no, the command will have to happen after you reboot00:59
sMonkI won't do anything unless told00:59
prince_jammyssMonk: chmod 755 /01:00
sMonknow01:00
sMonk?01:00
prince_jammysyeah01:00
prince_jammyssMonk: and verify01:00
prince_jammysls -ld /01:01
sMonkbingo!  drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 2008-01-06 15:53 /01:01
prince_jammysgood01:01
prince_jammyswould be nice if we could just mount your home from here01:01
Mandeni think the command should be chown yourname.users   It's a perions not a colon, and it's usually owned by users01:01
Mandenperiod*01:01
prince_jammyswe're not changing the owner, just the permissions01:02
prince_jammysthe owner is fine01:02
sMonkI think he means on the home dir no?01:02
prince_jammyssMonk: on the home dir you do both01:02
MandenYou're not changing the owners of the homedire?01:02
prince_jammysyes, but it's not mounted01:02
Mandenah color or period works, but I think the group should be users01:03
oloughlin75Hey all, I am trying to make something and am getting this error: http://pastebin.org/2109401:03

prince_jammyssMonk: right01:03
prince_jammyssMonk: i just don't know how to un-chroot you01:03
sMonkok, so what's my next step?01:03
prince_jammyssMonk: hold on01:03
sMonkoh01:03
prince_jammyssMonk: the next step is see if we can deal with your home right now without rebooting01:04
sMonkok01:04
Mandenctr+D should leave chroot01:04

sMonk*high 5*01:25
Daisuke-Idothere is also virtually NO reason that you would or should EVER need to.01:25

prince_jammysgood01:25
prince_jammysManden: yeah that whole mounted home thing might have messed it up01:26

prince_jammysno, that should be your users home01:29
MandensMonk: You should have changed /home/dale to dale:dale01:30
MandenAhmuck: Because they add a bunch of unstable junk to it.01:30
prince_jammyssMonk: your /home should be root:root and your /home/dale should be dale:dale01:30
prince_jammyssMonk: which i bet it is, if you're logged in as dale01:30

Daisuke_Idoso is there a /home/dale/gribble/aka/rusty/shackleford ?01:32
sMonkBluesKaj: almost brothers.. lol01:32
MandenHe did a -R do /home/dale.  You can use find to recursively find directories and files and give them different permissions, but as long as /home/dale is 755 I think it should be ok.01:32
derduiok i tried it with apt-get purge ..... what should i type to install the flashplayer nonfree?01:32

prince_jammysManden changed the owner of /home/dale only, not subdirs01:40

prince_jammyswhat a mess01:40
sMonkyour tellin' me01:41
MandenI know, but he never changed the owner to root in the first place.  I think RealPlayer maybe install with root as owner.  I don't have it installed so I don't know01:41
nosrednaekimprince_jammys» oh.. thats easy to fix01:41
prince_jammyssMonk: looks good01:41
nosrednaekimwhats the home dir, and what user does he want it to be owned by?01:41

MandenType this from inside ~ find -type f -exec chmod 600 \{\} \;01:43
prince_jammysbut isn't he done otherwise?01:43
swattonight all01:43
sMonkif there is any problems with my permissions, is that why Firefox won't display flash stuff properly? It puts things behind it and doesn't play the flash all the time.. yet sometimes it does01:43
Mandenactually wait01:43
playstation3ERROR " /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: /opt/firefox/firefox-bin: cannot execute binary file "01:43
prince_jammysManden: what if he has executable files?01:43
Mandenyeah, that's why I said wait01:43
nosrednaekimManden» chmod does have a recursive flag....01:43

Mandenalthough I have no idea what it's for02:04
prince_jammysyeah, if anything they're too lax02:04
nosrednaekimmrunagi» "mounted hard disk volume"02:04

sMonkManden: does it need to be root or dale? and 755?02:05
therealpxcnosrednaekim: that brings me to the next problem... http://www.robertc.com/pxc/images/misc/adept-screen2.png02:05
prince_jammysi don't have a /home/lost+found02:05
Mandenmine are root.root 700 , but you should set yours to whatever prince_jammys has02:05
flealost+found is per fs02:05
therealpxcwhich is what appears upon a reinstall attempt02:05
prince_jammysManden: i don't have one02:05
sMonkshould I just leave it then?02:05
prince_jammyssMonk: what are they?02:05
Mandenflea: Do you know what the default permissions are for ext3 lost+found?02:05
sMonkowner is root, but it appears to be chmod 77702:05
sMonkdrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 16384 2007-12-01 19:26 /home/lost+found/02:06
stdinshould be 70002:06
MandensMonk: is your filesystem ext3?02:06
sMonkyeah02:06
Mandenthx stdin.02:06
Mandenset it to chmod 700 /home/lost+found02:07
nosrednaekimtherealpxc» use apt-get so we can gett a better error message02:07
sMonkso should it be sudo chmod -R 700 /home/lost02:07
therealpxcnosredaekim: of course02:07
Mandendo use -R,  there shouldn't be anything in it anyhow02:07
nosrednaekimtherealpxc» what packages are these anyway? kde4?02:07
Mandendon't use -R i mean02:07
prince_jammyssMonk: yeah no -R02:07
mrunagii would also like for my mounted image to show up in storage media02:07

prince_jammysthat's 70002:08
sd32is ext3 filesystem mandatory for linux install?02:08
prince_jammysso yeah02:08
MandenJust as a general not, recursive operations (like -R for chmod and chown) should be used with caution02:08
sMonkI did use -R .. is that bad?02:08

nosrednaekimmrunagi» are you mounting to /media?02:09
prince_jammyssMonk: if you did -R i would change it back and then do it without -R02:09
therealpxcI don't understand why pidgin makes a new line for each thing I try to paste... is that just something of IRC?02:09
mrunaginosrednaekim: yes02:09
sMonkok, so sudo chmod -R 777 /home/lost   then sudo chmod 700 /home/lost02:09
nosrednaekimtherealpxc» yeah02:09
stdinprince_jammys: it would only matter if there re files in lost+found, and if that's true then there are bigger issues to worry about02:09
MandenI doubt there is anything in the lost+found folder, so -R wouldn't do anything02:09
Mandenit's not lost it should be lost+found02:09
nosrednaekimmrunagi» odd02:09
prince_jammyssMonk: stdin: true02:10
sMonkI just didn't want to type the found02:10
mrunaginosrednaekim: ive never had a manually mounted iso plant itself in storage media or on the desktop02:10
MandenOK02:10
nosrednaekimtherealpxc» run "sudo apt-get update"02:10
Mandenif /home/dale/lost+found is 700 root.root you should be ok02:10
Mandenand you should be all set02:10
philphotojust figured out a problem but I don't know how to fix it:  during an install, /dev/.udev/... isn't created and so i don't have any usb.  anyone know how I might rectify this?02:10
therealpxcnosredaekim: that doesn't change it, I've done it already02:10

sMonkI know I can't access it02:10
sMonktells me access is denied02:10

Stoffernot|root, how would that happen, and will I lose any data by allowing it?03:41
not|rootStoffer: if there was any data loss, it has already happened.  e2fsck is pretty good about knowing what it is doing.  If you want to do a dd backup of the filesystem before attempting to fix, now would be the time.  But minor errors are normal like when a program closed abnormally with open files.03:42

mrunagii hope he didnt misplace a period04:50
mrunagiwe all have to learn the hard way though right?04:50
mrunagithe first time i screwed up xorg i was in hawaii, and the only person that knew how to fix it just quit........i was devastated =)04:51
mrunagihrm.......hes not back yet lol04:52
stansmithi heard there is this new book about X11 that just came out04:52
stansmithits pretty good from the review i read04:53
mrunagiim not too good at it myself04:53
mrunagimost of it doesnt make sense to me04:53
stansmithyea, i wish i could tighten up my xorg.conf instead of the default04:53
mrunagisad considering i edit my xorg alot04:53
mrunagiok hes taking a long time, something must be wrong lol04:54
stansmithhe is probably installing vista right now04:54
mrunagilol he already has it installed04:54
mrunagii told him how to use irssi in case something went wrong....04:54
stansmithwhy not just make a back up04:55
mrunagihe wouldnt know how to cp04:55
stansmitho jeez04:55
mrunagii guess i could have told him to make a backup first04:56
mrunagikubuntu does it anyway04:56
mrunagihope he doesnt write over it lol04:56
stansmithi mean, i was like that once04:56
mrunagime too lol04:56
stansmithbut i never came in IRC, cause i didnt know how to04:56
mrunagiwhen i first started, when x didnt start i was devastated.......04:56

stansmithyou really have to want to learn it04:57
mrunagi lol ok something is definately wrong here =)04:58
mrunagiif he cant run irssi i sure hope hes loading the livecd04:58
mrunagibtw.......dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages ............best command ever!04:59
stansmithwhat does that do?04:59
* stansmith uses pacman04:59
mrunagiit takes your dpk selections and puts it in a text file..........so when you reinstall you can do one command to install everything05:00
stansmitho...i used to do something similiar05:00
mrunagiid like to make my own customized kubuntu installation..........but it looks complicated05:01
mrunagihow long do i wait for spyd3r before i realize he isnt coming back05:02

mrunagii had him install it05:03

ere4siI'd kill it then type startx07:41
crackhead100is there any way to save the xsession, the windows open, so that i can have them restart upon the restart of startx?07:42
ere4sifrom the commandline? - that I don't know...07:42
crackhead100it said kill with signal 15.. then i hit enter.. then it said kill failed.. operation not permitted... ???07:43
crackhead100did i have to type yes when it said "kill with sig 15"?07:43
ere4sitry this - press   q  to stop top - then type    sudo top     and retry07:43
crackhead100it didn't give an error, but top still shows xorg running...???07:45
ere4siall I can suggest is a reboot07:46
ere4sisudo shutdown -r now    for the command07:47
crackhead100anyone else know how to stop/kill/restart X without rebooting the whole machine, if top, kill pid doesn't kill it?07:47
crackhead100ere4si: this keeps happening. everytime i use open office, and i use the mouse to click the topline menu dropdown, it freezes up the xorg, and i have to restart.. i tried searching for why this happens, but i can't find it. do you, or could you find out anything? is this common??07:48

Lynourewalmik: If nothing else helps, you can move away your ~/.kde08:51

kristjan_(if kubuntu hardy will indeed come with kde4 cd also then it's about time to release it for testing)08:52

Lynourekristjan_: oh, anyway, meant the Kubuntu devel channel... or even #ubuntu+108:53
kollais there no >kde-3.5.7 for feisty?08:53
Lynourewalmik: If there is no Restore to default button for the appereance settings, and you don't have lots of custom kde settings, you can restore full default settings by   mv ~/.kde ~/.kde-old   and logging out and back in08:54
Lynourewalmik: it moves all your kde settings to a backup location, new default settings get created automatically. Later if you wish you can pick and choose between the old custom and new default ones08:55
Lynourewalmik: But settings your own unique appereance settings can be whole fun too. I recommend playing with them first :)08:56
walmikLynoure: I d love to but these settings havent turned out the way i thought they would...08:57
walmikLynoure: Maybe i ve goofed upsomewhere08:57
walmikLynoure: I wanted it to look like Mac OS and it does to a large extent but there are lot of glitches08:58
Lynourewalmik: I think it's just that the system is not really an OS X... much more satisfying at least for me was to make it look like OS Lynoure ;)08:58

Lynourewalmik: only if you are ok with restoring all of Kde default settings. I think I recommend that only as a second choice, if you cannot tweak a look you are as ok with as you were with the default09:00
Lynourewalmik: oh, I'm not a compiz expert, so far have happily avoided it.09:01

LynoureZ3U5: It could help, yes.09:40

LynoureZ3U5: It's downloadable through the normal kubuntu download page, but the installing experience is a bit different09:41
LynoureZ3U5: that depends on what error you get... You'll need it to get to at least a command line to do anything.09:42

vltHello. When I load http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ in Firefox I get a "Flas is installed, version 9.0.115" window. Using Konqueror I don't see this message, get an html only version from maps.google.com and can't watch youtube videos, for example. Any ideas what to check first?12:42
vlts/Flas/Flash12:42
vltI installed the flashplugin-nonfree package 9.0.48.0.0ubuntu11~dapper3 from dapper-backports.12:44
ActionParsnipvlt, try sudo cp-ing the .so file to your plugins directory12:45
vltActionParsnip: Where's the .so file and where the plugin dir?12:47
ActionParsnipvlt, if you got the file from adobe, you should extract it to get an installer and a .so file? is that what you have12:47
ActionParsnipvlt, and are you on 32bit or 64bit kubuntu?12:48
Dr_willisHmm. Running ktorrent, and every so often i get an error on a torrent  'too many open files'12:48
vltActionParsnip: No, I installed/used the Kubuntu package12:48
vlt32bit12:48
ActionParsnipvlt, 32bit is good :D12:48
ActionParsnipvlt, get the archive file and copy it to your plugins dir12:49

ActionParsnipvlt, id uninstall what you installed too (saves confusion and space)12:50
ActionParsnipvlt, ive never liked backports myself. This is just how I do it. I use firefox too but konqueror should be similar12:50

Dr_willisI normally compile the latest mame from source. and keep it in my users dir. Then point kxmame to that binary/version.14:24

Dr_willisodd that kxmame wants to remove the newer mame..  Unless the package names/versions are not matching some how14:25
pushaxDr_willis: it considers it a different item as it's not a new version of xmame.  the new mame I have is sdlmame14:26

Creationistmohbana: Well, iwconfig lists eth1 as the wireless card too.  And it worked find until I rebooted.21:57

DrXi can't mount /dev/sda5, dmesg reported "journal inode is deleted" and e2fsck /dev/sda5 reports "Suprblock has an invalid ext3 journal (inode 0)" and I'm stepping outside my comfort zone with all the fixes it suggests... can someone help with this?21:59
storbeckCreationist: What does iwconfig eth1 say22:00
Creationiststorbeck: IEEE 802.11b/g....... "Broadcom 4318" etc... it's the wireless card.22:00
Creationiststorbeck: Need a pastebin of it?22:01
storbeckyes22:01
CreationistOh wait, I can't... I have no internet on that machine ;)22:01
Creationiststorbeck: What info do you need from it?22:02
storbeckDoes it show the ESSID it's connected to?22:02
Creationist"off/any"22:02
storbeckIs that what your router is called?22:02
Creationiststorbeck: Nope.22:02
Creationiststorbeck: I'm trying to avoid having to do this manually (non-gui) because my neighbor is NOT going to be okay having to do that.22:03
storbeckYou're setting this up for your neighbor?22:03
Creationiststorbeck: Last time I started the system it just listed the three networks in range, I picked one, it asked for the key and I was good to go.22:03
CreationistYes.22:03
CreationistIt's his laptop.22:03
storbeckYou tried going to knetwork-manager?22:05
Creationiststorbeck: Right... but even manually entering my ESSID and key don't work.22:05
storbeckHm, is there a wireless switch on the laptop?22:06
storbeckThere's been a few times where I accidently switched it off.22:06
Creationistlol yes, there is... one sec22:07
CreationistHmm... now it's showing me connected at 86% but I can't ping google.com.  There is no connection.22:08
storbeckIs it encrypted?22:09
Creationiststorbeck: Well, it hasn't asked me for the passphrase yet.22:09
DrXany way to undo changes made with e2fsck while it's still running?22:09
CreationistIs there a way to completely reset it all?22:09
storbeckI suppose you could uninstall the drivers, uninstall eth1. Then reinstall22:10
storbeckI'd suggest you set it to ath0 or wifi0 ;)22:11
Creationiststorbeck: It actually is connected to my network, but I don't want my neighbor to be able to do that without having my passphrase...22:11
Creationiststorbeck: Could it have somehow been stored in Ubuntu?22:11
Creationiststorbeck: And I guess my last question would be, how do I set it up so that it automatically connects to HIS wireless network every time he logs in?22:12
logginshow do you install flash?22:12
storbeckSystem -> Administration -> Keyring Manager22:12
Creationistloggins: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree22:13
storbeckCreationist: When he first chooses the wireless network, that will be his default.22:13
Creationiststorbeck: But does that mean the MY network is now HIS default? ;)22:13
logginscool. thx22:14
storbeckEh, at first. But he will change it22:14
Creationistok... and he won't be able to go back to mine without knowing the password, correct?22:15
DrXanyone know how to manually undo a few e2fsck changes (I recorded the original values)?22:15
storbeckAs long as you didn't save it, and he doesn't know how to crack, yes.22:15
Creationisthmm... I don't remember intentionally saving it... don't remember seeing that option.  But okay.  Thanks for your help.22:16

DrXdoes e2fsck commit changes dynamically or at the end?  if you committed changes accidently made to a raw disk image, will that image be suspect/unreliable/unstable or do the changes not affect the raw data?22:29

NickPrestaProdin, you can actually use which you think will work (be it 'nv' for nvidia, 'ati' for ati, etc). Vesa usually works everywhere22:31

NickPrestaopen up a Konsole on the livecd and type in: grep -i driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf22:32
NickPrestaProdin, see which driver you're currently using (there should be things like 'kbd', 'mouse', 'etc). Type them out here (the values of the Driver line)22:32
Prodindriver: kbd22:33
Prodindriver: mouse22:34

NickPrestaProdin, so the 'savage' driver on the LiveCD work for you (obviously). I would select that driver when you reconfigure your display server. It should work.22:34
