| angusb | hey guys I was being helped settin g up amarok with mysql and I installed mysql and ran "create database amarok" and " grant all on amarok.* to amarok@'localhost' identified by amarok". I was then told to leave my hostname as localhost, the port on default, and the database|username|password all set to amarok. It's not working and I am getting a mysql error rported in Amarok | 00:20 |
|---|
| sfears | try it out | 00:20 |
|---|
| sfears | i think that command tells you what process is using the specified directory | 00:20 |
|---|
| angusb | not sure what I should fix | 00:20 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | oboy03, no, aptpn cd does more, it creates the list of packages etc as if a full repo.. | 00:20 |
|---|
| mindheavy | sfears: yes, that worked hah, wonder why that command was keeping the drive busy, i thought 'emerald &' would run 'emerald' and exit | 00:20 |
|---|
| kust3mz | Jack_Sparrow: I am trying to install my drivers right now and its says im in run level 1 and may cause prolbems how do i change to run level 3 | 00:20 |

| sfears | i wouldn't expect emerald to use that directory at all.. but who knows | 00:21 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | kust3mz, I dont know where you are at with that.. all I can suggest is you rad the docs where you got the drivers you want to use | 00:21 |

|---|
| oboy03 | on the same cd that is | 00:22 |

|---|
| heguru | mindheavy: you can use lsof to find out which files are open by which process | 00:22 |
|---|
| mindheavy | i'll have to remember that command, seems like it would come in handy | 00:22 |

| jchagas | Paul, but is it an installation option? | 00:26 |
|---|
| Daisuke_Ido | mugen is probably not in the repos | 00:26 |
|---|
| Pelo | Marius, that's the source, see here for how to install http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/ | 00:26 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | Marius, then you need to look for a readme inside or docs on their site. Most likely you will need to build it from source | 00:26 |
|---|
| chafe | Pelo thats the GDM | 00:26 |
|---|
| chafe | Pelo ....besides using the GDM | 00:26 |

| ubotu | Sindacious: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 00:43 |

| Dr_Willis | ripper666, I mean what you NEED a torrent client to do.. not what files you want to grab. What you want to download. dosent really matter. :) | 00:55 |
|---|
| andguent | sp0ro: the answer is then dependant on your router, but you should have the option to forward | 00:55 |
|---|
| sp0ro | anguent: I am doing a side-project in my CCNA class and I would like to have ssh access to the servers I set up to configure them. The problem is on remote access to the public address, only port 3389 is allowed. | 00:55 |
|---|
| loser | megaqwert: whats it mean if it tells me no file / dir? | 00:55 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: I'll try and figure out what card is in it. If I can't there's a command that will tell me. | 00:55 |

| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Thanks :) | 00:55 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | loser: can you pastebin the output of just running: ifconfig ? | 00:55 |
|---|
| sp0ro | andguent: I won't be allowed to change anything on the router for security purposes, I will only be allowed to forward SSH to port 3389 | 00:55 |
|---|
| andguent | EdinNY: the real answer is to test it yourself with junk files, make two directories in temp, use 'touch' to make empty files, and then rsync them around between one tmp subdirectory and another | 00:55 |
|---|
| heguru | ader10: download the nxclient package http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=57 | 00:55 |

| ubotu | loser: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined 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 channel topic) | 00:56 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | !paste | loser | 00:56 |
|---|
| andguent | sp0ro: two ways to do that, depending on if you can control the router.... one is to play with the 'port' directive in /etc/ssh/sshd_config -- you can have multiple 'Port' lines | 00:56 |
|---|
| sp0ro | andguent: This has to be done server side, unfortunately. If I had access to the router that has remote access permissions setup, it would be easy. :) | 00:56 |

|---|
| dube | ok polishpaul thank you i will do that | 00:57 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Hammer89, metacity --replace is one way | 00:57 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Ah, it's a AirForce 51g.. I'm just not sure how to install the driver | 00:58 |
|---|
| loser | megaqwertyu: but i can just get the values you need to see | 00:58 |
|---|
| Hammer89 | Dr_Willis: wouldn't that just restart it? | 00:58 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | ltcabral, i open up the gnome theme manager tool and drag/drop the archive to it | 00:58 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | TaRDy: I believe you could set that up through Firestarter (sudo aptitude install firestarter) That's the only way I've configured bridges. | 00:58 |
|---|
| Hammer89 | Dr_Willis: er.. wait... that would be compiz --replace | 00:58 |
|---|
| Dr_Willis | Hammer89, it replaces compiz with metacity. thus disabling compiz. | 00:58 |
|---|
| TaRDy | thank you Megaqwerty | 00:58 |
|---|
| polishpaul | dube: windows does not care about other OS's so XP overwrote GRUB.. | 00:58 |

| Dr_Willis | Hammer89, :) | 00:58 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | loser: is it seeing eth0? | 00:58 |
|---|
| andguent | sp0ro: i use port 22 and port XXXXX all the time, two lines, one right after the other, it should read them all when you restart sshd (and it shouldn't kill your connection if you leave the original port 22 active) | 00:58 |

| Gatton | GamingX, I had to do this recently. You can boot to the XP cd and run a Repair. That will get you into the recovery console. You can try running FIXBOOT C: or FIXMBR to rewrite your master boot record | 01:17 |
|---|
| Gatton | that should let you get back into windows. Worked for me | 01:17 |

|---|
| Gatton | GamingX, it rewrites your MBR which is where grub is located. you can google fixmbr and fixboot. that should get you more info | 01:18 |

| TaRDy | Megaqwerty, eth1 is up, however the device isn't always connected to it | 01:18 |

| grizlo42 | im annoyed, i can´t get my port forwarding to work, anyone know what to do for thw WGR614v6 netgear router? | 01:18 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | acee1235: the restricted, multiverse, universe, etc. are optional, and you must enable them yourself. | 01:18 |
|---|
| Gatton | DARKGuy, good point. Recovery console should show where your windows installation is for example C:\WINDOWS before it allows you to get into the recovery console | 01:18 |
|---|
| acee1235 | Megaqwerty: even the main one was disabled | 01:19 |
|---|
| DARKGuy | Gatton, yeah it does, I was careless :p | 01:19 |
|---|
| GamingX | And I get into recovery console? | 01:19 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | acee1235: quite odd indeed | 01:19 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | acee1235: well, at least you can fix it :) | 01:19 |
|---|
| Gatton | GamingX, boot your XP cd and choose the R or Repair option. That will get you into recovery console... | 01:19 |
|---|
| Gatton | it will ask you for your admin password | 01:19 |

| Xcerca | whats the difference between nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-settings ? , whenever i install one it removed the other one | 01:19 |
|---|
| GamingX | Ok. Thanks. | 01:19 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | acee1235: I would certainly hope so as well | 01:19 |
|---|
| GamingX | I'll try this out. | 01:20 |
|---|
| Gatton | then it puts you into a prompt. from there you can try running fixboot c: or fixmbr. again it's not a bad idea to google those to get more info before you try it | 01:20 |

| Gatton | DARKGuy, agreed. I really hope it gets better. They are only at 0.4 though I guess :-) | 01:22 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: hmm, it doesn't look like you even installed it. (At least from the ubuntu repository) but just to check, please pastebin the output of dpkg -l | grep -i ndiswrapper (note that the character after the '-' is an L and the thing after it is a pipe (above the enter key on most keyboards)) | 01:22 |
|---|
| Booh- | LjL: that was the package I was looking for... I didn't remember the name... thanks | 01:22 |

| andguent | grizlo42: are you connecting from inside your own network, and trying to access your external IP? or are you trying this from another location? | 01:24 |
|---|
| sp0ro | andguent: problem is the said servers I was talking about don't actually have access to anything other than the port I specified earlier, so I can't even use aptitude or any other application to download anything from the internet :P | 01:24 |

| kholerabbi | I just installed 7.10 on my laptop and the wired internet is not working, although it says it is you can't use it at all. | 01:27 |
|---|
| andguent | grizlo42: when trying to go from inside your own network, to the outside facing connection of your router, that gets really weird, its unfortunately a poor test -- what you need is to test connecting to your external IP from somewhere else, grc.com has a shieldsUp scanner that will tell you what you have open | 01:27 |

| ubotu | SisyphusINC: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 01:29 |

| damaltor | hello, can anybody tell me what the following means if i want to use the parallel port? ioctl(/dev/lp0, PPCLAIM) failed: 22 Invalid argument | 02:04 |
|---|
| andguent | grizlo42: just turn that port forwarding off whenever possible, enjoy your apache tinkering :) | 02:04 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Anyway, the uncompressed is on my hd | 02:04 |
|---|
| Devourer | FloodBot1, is silly. | 02:04 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | ingo__: huh. No idea then. Sorry. | 02:04 |
|---|
| Alan_M | FloodBot1, is a very helpful bot. | 02:05 |
|---|
| kholerabbi | damaltor: won't help, I'm not using 7.10 at the mo' | 02:05 |
|---|
| Devourer | Alan_M, so how do I keep it from mounting automatically? | 02:05 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: cool. I need you to open up a terminal and navigate to that folder (I assume you know how to do this?) | 02:05 |
|---|
| david_ | HELP! i have an extra sound card that ubuntu didnt install by itself....its a creative live board and im not sure how to install it......HELP! | 02:05 |

| damaltor | oh. so where do you see that it is connected? | 02:05 |
|---|
| damaltor | kholerabbi: oh. so where do you see that it is connected? | 02:05 |
|---|
| Alan_M | Devourer, im not sure of that answer. | 02:05 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Yes | 02:05 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | andguent: thanks, im actually only using it for a few days, then i will turn it off, probably permanately | 02:05 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: excellent. Now that you're there, run sudo make uninstall | 02:06 |
|---|
| Frederick | folks any news concerning netbeans being broken on AMD64? | 02:06 |
|---|
| c0da | hey, i'm using this webcam program and it's asking me to input the serial port of the webcam. lsusb gives me : "Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:08b2 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Pro 4000". what is ther serial port? | 02:06 |
|---|
| Devourer | Alan_M, well, when I unmount it how am I supposed to find the name under /dev? | 02:06 |
|---|
| kholerabbi | damaltor: well heres the story: I put in the 7.10 livecd, it says it connecting at the icon in the tray, then it is connected, but still not working in firefox or anything else - | 02:06 |
|---|
| Alan_M | it should be something like /dev/sdb1 or something similar. | 02:06 |
|---|
| mneptok | Devourer: use "df -h" when it's mounted to learn its /dev entry | 02:06 |
|---|
| Alan_M | but, df -h will tell you for certain what it is. | 02:07 |
|---|
| Devourer | mneptok, neato. | 02:07 |
|---|
| kholerabbi | damaltor: works fine in feisty | 02:07 |
|---|
| Alan_M | Devourer, type that in terminal. | 02:07 |
|---|
| damaltor | kholerabbi: nice. =) sometimes it helps, if you kill that nasty tray icon (didnt work for me either) and then type "dhclient eth0" on console. | 02:07 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: NOTE: Not all installed files are removed, as different distributions install ndiswrapper files at different places. | 02:07 |
|---|
| silas428 | how do i find my source tree? | 02:07 |
|---|
| ingo__ | so ... my problem is that i can't install out of my gutsy- repositories, because apt tries to connect localhost -->Failed to fetch http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/Release.gpg Could not connect to localhost:4001 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused) | 02:07 |
|---|
| ingo__ | anyone a idea??? | 02:07 |
|---|
| kholerabbi | damaltor: really and that works? | 02:07 |
|---|
| Alan_M | I just learned the df -h trick today mneptok, gimme a few days and that ones gonna be implanted in my head :) | 02:08 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: yes, it does indeed say that. It then states that you just have to run it multiple times so it works (not sure why it works like that though) | 02:08 |
|---|
| === CR_cwek_Toket_Gd is now known as coJKT_Maniac_SU2 |
| === cpk1_ is now known as cpk1 |
| damaltor | kholerabbi: well, it worked for me, and the tray icon didnt. so it is worth a try while you cannot brake anything in a live distro =) | 02:08 |
|---|
| Devourer | damaltor, it spit this out at me. :( mkdosfs: Will not try to make filesystem on full-disk device '/dev/sdf' (use -I if wanted) | 02:08 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: How would I know if it's off :P ? | 02:08 |
|---|
| kholerabbi | damaltor: haha true I have to go and I will try it cheers mate :) | 02:08 |

| Alan_M | !sound | quakky_ | 02:12 |
|---|
| ubotu | quakky_: 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 | 02:12 |

|---|
| Frederick | folks I have aproblem with slocate slocate: fatal error: Could not find user database | 02:13 |
|---|
| damaltor | Devourer: but would have been funny too... | 02:13 |
|---|
| quakky_ | The problem originated when i was trying to fix my video i think | 02:13 |
|---|
| mneptok | Frederick: sudo updatedb | 02:13 |
|---|
| Alan_M | Devourer, we wouldnt tell you stuff that would blow your system up, maybe a little smoke while its churning code but nothing blows up :) | 02:13 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: excellent. It should be removed...let me just double check anything you did on the guide | 02:13 |
|---|
| rnartos | mneptok: is it worthy? or almost same as webmin | 02:13 |
|---|
| Frederick | mneptok: same problem | 02:13 |

| polishpaul | ingo__: can't get PMs? anyway, do you have network connectivity on the box? | 02:14 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | php! | 02:14 |

| mneptok | rnartos: it's not at all like Webmin. and it's only available to selected beta testers | 02:14 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | !php | 02:14 |

| 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+) | 02:14 |
|---|
| Frederick | sudo slocate libmawt gives the same error | 02:14 |
|---|
| mneptok | Frederick: sudo updatedb | 02:14 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: How far in the guide did you get? | 02:14 |
|---|
| ingo__ | <polishpaul> yes. email, im, chat, html - no problem | 02:14 |
|---|
| rnartos | mneptok: but as they describe it's a systemAdmn tool / web-based for ubuntu servers | 02:14 |
|---|
| mneptok | Frederick: that will not give a "database not found" error, as that is the command to create the (s)locate db | 02:14 |
|---|
| edju | join #kubuntu | 02:15 |
|---|
| Karsyth | can anyone help me figure out why my sound isnt working in wolfenstein enemy territory? | 02:15 |

|---|
| Frederick | whcich sould be the normal ownsershup to /usr/bin/slocate? | 02:15 |
|---|
| ingo__ | <polishpaul>: i don't know why apt tries to connect localhost - my sources.list is ok - no local entry | 02:15 |
|---|
| oboy03 | how do i bring back the shutdown icon in quit icon? | 02:15 |
|---|
| mneptok | rnartos: it's a monitoring tool. it allows for some system work. but it's not meant to replace sysadmin knowledge. | 02:15 |
|---|
| ingo__ | <polishpaul>: i kicked the tor-module by rcconf - doesn't help ... | 02:15 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: To where I was _looking_ for the driver, however I did run two commands that sYn_0n3 had mentioned | 02:15 |
|---|
| Devourer | Alan_M, I give up on what I'm trying to do with the USB thingy... I tried burning GParted to a CD but it would spin a bit and then the drive would just beep at me... :( | 02:15 |
|---|
| angusb | Can you install a different desktop environment like KDE onto ubuntu? or would that pretty much just be xubuntu? | 02:16 |

| rnartos | mneptok: oh a monitoring tool...ok I'll try it then | 02:16 |

|---|
| mneptok | rnartos: you *can't* try it, unless you have been invited to the beta program. | 02:17 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: check /etc/modules and make sure that ndiswrapper isn't listed there. | 02:17 |
|---|
| cataldus3d | plz | 02:18 |

| FFEMTcJ | Can a usb disconnect cause a reboot of ubuntu? | 02:18 |
|---|
| cataldus3d | i tried, restricted drivers and envy, and apt-get install nvidia-glx-new | 02:19 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: can't find a modules folder | 02:19 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: as long as ndiswrapper isn't listed, you're fine. If it is, just open it as root "sudo nano /etc/modules" and delete it from the file. Just reboot, then you're all set! | 02:19 |
|---|
| polishpaul | ingo__: are you trying via package manager in the GUI or via terminal (apt-get)? | 02:19 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: it's a file, not a folder | 02:19 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: I have to reboot my router, brb in like 5 mins. | 02:20 |

| Birkoff | Does anyone know or a easy way to limit incoming/outgoing tcp/upd traffic via IPTABLES ? | 02:20 |

| oboy03 | i can shutdown my laptop because the shutdown icon was gone how do i restore it? | 02:20 |
|---|
| ingo__ | polishpaul: both - of course, the same problem ... what is the module festival? | 02:20 |
|---|
| oboy03 | i cant* | 02:20 |
|---|
| mneptok | oboy03: try the "System" menu | 02:21 |
|---|
| oboy03 | then? | 02:21 |
|---|
| mneptok | oboy03: i dunno. maybe that big "QUIT" icon? | 02:21 |
|---|
| oboy03 | the quit is there but no shutdown option | 02:22 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: sorry about that. Back | 02:22 |
|---|
| oboy03 | it was there a while ago then poof | 02:22 |
|---|
| oboy03 | gone | 02:22 |
|---|
| mneptok | oboy03: you might try clicking it, just to see what it does. | 02:22 |
|---|
| oboy03 | no shutdown option | 02:22 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: so, did you check the file? | 02:22 |
|---|
| mneptok | oboy03: yes, there is. | 02:23 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: ok, and I checked the file, it's nothing about ndiswrapper | 02:23 |
|---|
| c0da | hey, i'm using this webcam program and it's asking me to input the serial port of the webcam. lsusb gives me : "Bus 003 Device 003: ID 046d:08b2 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Pro 4000". what is ther serial port? | 02:23 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: excellent. Then you're clena | 02:23 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | *clean | 02:23 |

|---|
| sp0ro | Does anyone know the command I would run to open port 3389 on IPTables allowing any IP address to connect through it? Most of the guides I have read haven't really specified anything close to what I need to do. | 02:23 |
|---|
| oboy03 | no its not | 02:23 |
|---|
| oboy03 | :( | 02:24 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Okay, thanks a lot for your help ^^, one more question though, is there a place were you can look at Wireless networks in the area? | 02:24 |
|---|
| david_ | Alan_M, i know that and i am aware of the great service the people here are doing to us...but im just hopeless cuz ive been trying to get this working for a while now and im just getting frustrated.... | 02:24 |
|---|
| polishpaul | ingo__: what happens when you apt-get update ? | 02:24 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: that would be left clicking the Network-Manager-Applet and looking at the list | 02:24 |
|---|
| Karsyth | very stupid question, but i just CANNOT rememer the commands for installing a downloaded zip file? | 02:24 |
|---|
| Karsyth | i wasn wondering if anyone could refresh me | 02:24 |

|---|
| basti | unzip? | 02:25 |
|---|
| Karsyth | there are files inside it | 02:25 |
|---|
| Karsyth | just folders... | 02:25 |

| basti | configure make make install? | 02:25 |

| Karsyth | ./configure ? | 02:25 |
|---|
| mneptok | Karsyth: "installing" a zip file? or extracting it? | 02:25 |
|---|
| damaltor | anybody ever worked with lcd4linux? PLEASE... | 02:25 |
|---|
| Karsyth | installing | 02:25 |
|---|
| Ttech | I found a kill command in Ubuntu. >< | 02:25 |
|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Is that only possible if there are wireless networks in the area? I can't see a list selections :/ | 02:25 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | sindacious: have you heard of wicd | 02:25 |
|---|
| andguent | sp0ro: iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 3389 -j ACCEPT | 02:26 |
|---|
| sp0ro | mneptok: No, but when I added port 3389 to the list of SSH ports to use on a server, it won't allow me to connect even when the router is configured to allow it. So I figured it was something set in IPTables no allowing permission to connect from an outside host to the server via SSH through port 3389 | 02:26 |
|---|
| mneptok | Karsyth: what is this zip file? | 02:26 |
|---|

| ingo__ | <polishpaul> the same problem - it tries to connect to localhost. i installed some stuff && yet try to disable some modules, which may link apt to 127.0.0.1 | 02:26 |
|---|
| Sindacious | sYn_0n3: Yeah, but last time I put it on it didn't work | 02:26 |
|---|
| Birkoff | Anyone can help me with limiting outgoind/incoming traffic on iptables ? | 02:26 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: yes, it would show networks in the area. For example, in the beginning, you saw the network "test" | 02:26 |
|---|
| mneptok | sp0ro: iptables has no restrictions by default | 02:26 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | sindacious are you using encrytion? | 02:26 |
|---|
| jals | i used set compiz-fusion to use ctrl + left/right to move to different desktops then i realised that this conflicted with the function of control when navigating around text, where are the settings to change this back? | 02:26 |

|---|
| Sindacious | Megaqwerty: Okay, thanks then :) | 02:26 |

| Sindacious | sYn_0n3: I wouldn't know :/ | 02:26 |

| HorizonXP | hey, what package do I install in Gutsy AMD64 to get the latest version of Sun's Java? I don't care about the plugin, I need to run programs seperately from Firefox. | 02:27 |
|---|
| ingo__ | <polishpaul> is there a possibility to restart the modules without rebooting? | 02:27 |
|---|
| mneptok | sp0ro: and restart the sshd daemon after any changes to the configs | 02:27 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: np | 02:27 |
|---|
| Karsyth | mneptok, enemy territory 2.60b patch | 02:27 |
|---|
| sp0ro | andguent: Thanks, I'll try that. mneptok: I added 3389 underneath "Port 22" in sshd_config, so I'm not sure what would be causing it. :/ | 02:27 |
|---|
| mneptok | sp0ro: the daemon can listen only on one port. pick one. | 02:27 |
|---|
| andguent | HorizonXP: search for jre or jdk in your favorite package manager | 02:27 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | sindacious.. so your just trying to scan? | 02:27 |
|---|
| sfears | ingo__, rmmod modulename & modprobe modulename ? | 02:28 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | lsusb or lspci where is your wireless card | 02:28 |
|---|
| andguent | mneptok: I would respectfully dissagree, sshd can handle multiple port directives in its sshd_config | 02:28 |
|---|
| polishpaul | ingo__: which modules? Try checking your proxy settings, also, 'cat /etc/hosts' and check for anything funny (see https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/6719) | 02:28 |
|---|
| Sindacious | sYn_0n3: Me ? | 02:28 |
|---|
| ingo__ | <sfears>: no i just want to restart the boot modules | 02:28 |
|---|
| sYn_0n3 | sindacious: yes | 02:28 |
|---|
| polishpaul | ingo__: also cat /etc/resolf.conf | 02:28 |
|---|
| mneptok | andguent: but it's non-trivial, and trhe first thing to eliminate to fix connectivity issues. | 02:29 |
|---|
| Megaqwerty | Sindacious: you could also try iwlist wlan0 scan | 02:29 |
|---|

|---|
| jrib | orudie: ctrl-a k also ctrl-a ? gets you cheat sheet | 03:06 |
|---|
| polishpaul | robilive: while booting, the grub menu should show you a selection of OS's to boot into. I believe if you hit E for edit, you can add parameters. (single or something like /bin/bash) which will let you in the box without authentication | 03:06 |
|---|
| sfears | tonywong.. ctrl+alt+backspace | 03:06 |

|---|
| Y-Town | I notice in Firefox that many websites I visit dont look as good as they do in Internet Explorer...What can be done to make websites look better? | 03:06 |
|---|
| heogen | I have this problem E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 03:06 |
|---|
| Gatton | polishpaul, can you also do something like init 1 at a terminal to get to single user mode? | 03:07 |
|---|
| baalsgate | jrib, finding it hard to find the documentation to get the equivilant of chkconfig to start NTP | 03:07 |
|---|
| xtknight | heogen, your update manager or synaptic is open | 03:07 |
|---|
| jrib | heogen: what were you trying to do? | 03:07 |
|---|
| xtknight | heogen, you can not have two programs using the software package system at once | 03:07 |
|---|
| polishpaul | robilive: can you wait here for a minute while i test it out so i can give you exact instructions? | 03:07 |
|---|
| KNY | quick question: any idea when 7.10 will be getting gnome 2.22? | 03:07 |
|---|
| polishpaul | Gatton: that's a good idea... | 03:07 |

| heogen | ok | 03:07 |

| TonyWong | trying... | 03:07 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | Heya, I have a USB headset pluged in, how can I work out what /dev point it hooks up to? | 03:07 |
|---|
| robilive | ok polishpaul ... then I have to edit the line in GRUB with a /bon/bash at the end? | 03:07 |
|---|
| xtknight | [Neurotic], well it should be detected by alsa. is it? | 03:07 |
|---|
| heogen | jrib when a trying to install a program | 03:07 |
|---|
| jrib | heogen: tell me the exact command | 03:08 |
|---|
| robilive | polishpaul, if is possible, tank you so much :D | 03:08 |
|---|
| polishpaul | robilive: yeah, something like that.. let me double check for you. | 03:08 |
|---|
| TonyWong | What is the default login password for root of Ubuntu LiveCD 7.10? | 03:08 |
|---|
| sfears | [Neurotic], lsusb? | 03:08 |
|---|
| xtknight | [Neurotic], at least as far as i know. usb/pci shouldnt matter. it should appear to alsa | 03:08 |
|---|
| robilive | tnak you polishpaul :D | 03:08 |
|---|
| heogen | jrib show dont let me do it | 03:08 |
|---|
| polishpaul | you would then just use 'passwd' to change root's pass.. one moment plz | 03:08 |
|---|
| TonyWong | Oh, it logs in by itself.... | 03:08 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | !root | 03:08 |
|---|
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 03:08 |

| heogen | dpkg | 03:08 |

| heogen | jrib dpkg | 03:08 |

| kestir | heogen: you can't have two open at the same time | 03:08 |
|---|
| jrib | baalsgate: you installed the ntp package? | 03:08 |
|---|
| kestir | heogen: just told you | 03:08 |
|---|
| sfears | holy deep ubotu | 03:08 |
|---|

|---|
| ubotu | We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-) | 03:08 |
|---|
| heogen | kestir no | 03:08 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | xtknight, it is, but I have some code that is recording on /dev/dsp and I need to change it so it records through the right /dev point | 03:08 |
|---|
| baalsgate | jrib, just want to set NTP service to start at startup , yes NTP is installed | 03:08 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | it does show up on Alsa, yes | 03:08 |
|---|
| jrib | heogen: yes of course "dpkg" doesn't do anything. It will throw errors. | 03:08 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | polishpaul, Please dont suggest that | 03:08 |
|---|
| Y-Town | I notice in Firefox that many websites I visit dont look as good as they do in Internet Explorer...What can be done to make websites look better? | 03:09 |
|---|
| xtknight | [Neurotic], hmm maybe theres a /dev/dsp1 or something. ls /dev/dsp* | 03:09 |
|---|
| heogen | jrib yeah | 03:09 |
|---|
| ingo__ | <polishpaul> yw? - what does it mean? ^^ | 03:09 |
|---|
| Xcerca | is there any tool that i can use to adjust the size and orientation of my display with a gui ? | 03:09 |
|---|
| jrib | baalsgate: iirc, all you need to do is install the ntp package. It will set itself up. Have you found that not to be the case? | 03:09 |
|---|
| xtknight | [Neurotic], or perhaps you can set /dev/dsp to the proper device, elsewhere? | 03:09 |
|---|
| jrib | heogen: what are you trying to install? | 03:09 |
|---|
| TonyWong | Login already, but it is not 1024x768 resolution....800x600? or 640x480 I think.... | 03:09 |
|---|
| heogen | jrib and the system say me lock it | 03:09 |
|---|
| polishpaul | Jack_Sparrow: suggest single user? why not? he does not have a root password | 03:09 |
|---|
| sfears | Xcerca, if your using nvidia drivers nvidia-settings | 03:09 |
|---|
| jals | help, how do i get back ctrl functionality so it moves the cursor one word when used with left/right arrow | 03:09 |
|---|
| xtknight | yw = you're welcome | 03:09 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | xtknight, there is a /dev/dsp1 maybe that is it, I tried that, didn't seem to work. Hmnn.. good point about moving the devide, I will give that a shot | 03:09 |
|---|
| polishpaul | ingo__: yw = you're welcome | 03:09 |
|---|
| heogen | jrib jsut update | 03:10 |
|---|
| heogen | the new program | 03:10 |
|---|
| heogen | jrib | 03:10 |
|---|
| jrib | heogen: you want 'sudo apt-get update' | 03:10 |
|---|
| xtknight | [Neurotic], well i mean like in sound properties it says use this device for recording, use that, etc.. it might be saying "/dev/dsp is this device" | 03:10 |
|---|
| polishpaul | Gatton: i just relized.. init 1 may not work if he's not root? | 03:10 |
|---|
| ingo__ | ah, i see. :-) | 03:10 |
|---|
| |2-bits| | Y-Town: I don't think there is much you can do. Most of that has to do with bad web page design that causes rendering errors on standards-compliant browsers... | 03:10 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | xtknight, I'm trying to get skype-rec to work on my setup (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SkypeRecordingHowto) | 03:10 |
|---|
| jrib | heogen: and 'sudo apt-get upgrade' afterwards | 03:10 |
|---|
| jrib | !apt > heogen (read the private message from ubotu) | 03:10 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | polishpaul, Better to see what he want to do...that he needs root | 03:10 |
|---|
| xtknight | [Neurotic], does skype have options for selecting the device | 03:11 |
|---|

| polishpaul | Jack_Sparrow: ok, i just saw that someone didn't have their root pass so i suggested single usering and setting root. I don't see any harm in that. | 03:12 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | xtknight, yes it does.. I'm going to try setting them all to default.. so in theory it goes through /edv/dsp and see if that works | 03:12 |
|---|
| [Neurotic] | xtknight, thanks | 03:12 |

| Jack_Sparrow | polishpaul, this is not up for debate in this rrom, feel free to discuss in -offtopic .. sudo or gksudo will do what they need | 03:16 |

| iobelisk | hi guys, i have a pretty serious problem, i think. i was in the middle of a update (testy hardy alpha) and the update process showed an error because of missing dependencies. i had to manually restart the computer and now in normal boot mode the system sort of stalls (for loooooong) on 'staring system logs daemon', when i try recovery mode, it drops to bash, asks me for my username, i enter it, hit enter, and nothing, it fails. i restart a | 03:27 |
|---|
| amenado | chuy_max-> type shell --version i think this will tell you | 03:27 |
|---|
| jrib | orudie: screen -r 8924.pts-1.ubuntu | 03:27 |
|---|
| bruenig | iobelisk: this channel is for the current version of ubuntu | 03:27 |
|---|
| amenado | iobelisk-> go see #ubuntu+1 | 03:27 |
|---|
| chuy_max | amenado, command not found | 03:27 |
|---|
| |2-bits| | iobelisk: try ubuntu+1 | 03:27 |
|---|
| bruenig | chuy_max: replace "shell" withh whatever your shell is | 03:27 |
|---|
| bruenig | presumably bash | 03:27 |
|---|
| |2-bits| | * #ubuntu+1 | 03:28 |
|---|
| amenado | chuy_max-> yes but it would have responded with a shell you currently have, most likely bash:.. | 03:28 |
|---|
| iobelisk | bruenig, amenado, |2bits|, thanks | 03:28 |
|---|
| orudie | jrib: right, but how would i actually close putty without stopping the processes ? | 03:28 |

| quakky_ | guys im getting this error when i try to test my playback ...audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing. | 03:28 |
|---|
| sfears | i hope dev gets better at resuming after shut down during update/install.. that's happened to me before | 03:28 |
|---|
| chuy_max | bruenig, I have to know which shell I am currently using | 03:28 |
|---|
| jrib | orudie: just click the x, screen will keep running | 03:28 |
|---|
| bruenig | chuy_max: echo "$SHELL" | 03:28 |
|---|
| chuy_max | bruenig, that didn't work, suppose I use ksh, and do echo $SHELL, that gives me bash path | 03:29 |
|---|
| stevendemorez | i was wondering if anyone could give me a reason as to why particular processes folders show up in my loading of one kernel and not the other and as to how I could get these files to load up (I don't know why they didn't transfer over actually) | 03:29 |
|---|
| bruenig | chuy_max: well SHELL is the login shell | 03:29 |

|---|
| usser | chuy_max: echo $SHELL | 03:30 |
|---|
| bruenig | usser: that is for login shell | 03:30 |

| Y-Town | LogMeIn does not work on Linux, Does anyone know a remote login program for linux that works similar to LogMeIn? | 03:32 |
|---|
| usser | bruenig: I see that's interesting how do you find out your current shell\ | 03:32 |
|---|
| pstv | Does anyone know a soundfont player for ubuntu? | 03:32 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | Y-Town: vnc? | 03:32 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Y-Town: uh, the VNC client of your choice? | 03:32 |
|---|
| Gatton | usser, echo $SHELL works for me | 03:33 |
|---|
| chuy_max | Gatton, that's the login shell, it has been said before ^^ | 03:33 |
|---|
| bruenig | usser: you should just know | 03:33 |
|---|
| mboman | Is there a alfa, beta or release candidate of the Mobile edition that I can download somewhere? | 03:33 |
|---|
| bruenig | I don't see why this would ever be useful | 03:33 |
|---|
| Gatton | chuy_max, well what shell do you suppose I'm in once I'm logged in? | 03:34 |
|---|
| Y-Town | Starnestommy: tonyyarusso Does that work with a DHCP connection? my web host doesnt give me static | 03:34 |
|---|
| chuy_max | bruenig, that's a very interesting question, I was very curious if there was a way to know | 03:34 |
|---|
| bruenig | Gatton: type dash right now in a terminal | 03:34 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | Y-Town: it should as long as you remember the ip | 03:34 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Y-Town: dyn-dns | 03:34 |
|---|
| jrib | orudie: get it? | 03:34 |
|---|
| Gatton | bruenig, i get a dollar sign prompt | 03:34 |
|---|
| bruenig | Gatton: echo "$SHELL" | 03:34 |
|---|
| usser | Gatton: that's login shell | 03:34 |
|---|
| Gatton | bruenig, i get the same shell as before | 03:35 |
|---|
| usser | hehe | 03:35 |
|---|
| bruenig | that is not a login shell, that is the dash shell | 03:35 |
|---|
| bruenig | Gatton: but the shell you are actually using is dash, not bash | 03:35 |
|---|
| bruenig | hence, that method is fail | 03:35 |
|---|
| Y-Town | tonyyarusso: I think that might be the solution :o) | 03:35 |
|---|
| Gatton | bruenig, you learn something everyday :-) thanks | 03:35 |
|---|
| * usser well yea I mean you should know what shell you are running | 03:35 |
| usser | period | 03:35 |
|---|
| Y-Town | Starnestommy: I dont have control of when I loose it :O( | 03:36 |
|---|
| usser | but still | 03:36 |
|---|
| Gatton | bruenig, so is dash supposed to be a compatible replacement for bash? | 03:36 |
|---|
| bruenig | basically here is how I see it, if you haven't explicitly called another shell, you are using the login shell, which you can find out using echo $SHELL. If you have explicitly called another shell, then you know because you called it after all. | 03:36 |
|---|
| bruenig | Gatton: they aren't compatible completely | 03:37 |
|---|
| scott | so how do I disable Xgl? | 03:37 |
|---|
| scott | I'm tired of compiz crashing on me, I want to switch back to pekwm | 03:38 |
|---|
| nickrud | bruenig: when I do dash (learning my daily thing here) env reports _=/bin/dash, is that repeatable with other shells? I don't have another installed to test with at the moment | 03:38 |
|---|
| scott | but I can't quite figure out what's starting xgl, and pekwm seems unable to grab the root window with it running | 03:38 |
|---|
| bruenig | nickrud: when I do env, I get _=/usr/bin/env so... | 03:38 |
|---|
| karuna_bd1 | does anyone know where to learn c++ (for really really beginner) | 03:39 |
|---|
| bruenig | karuna_bd1: a book of course | 03:39 |
|---|
| === ce_sexi is now known as ady |
| karuna_bd1 | bruenig: any good recommendations? books are really expensive in malaysia | 03:40 |
|---|
| nickrud | bruenig: I see that when I'm in my login shell, I guess I'll install a couple others to test. Hope I don't get lost in them :) | 03:40 |
|---|
| bruenig | karuna_bd1: I don't know, you can probably piece it together from online stuff if you wanted to | 03:40 |
|---|
| orudie | jrib: thanx bro, this worked out perfect | 03:40 |
|---|
| * usser zsh FTW | 03:40 |
| bruenig | nickrud: oh I see that when I am in my login shell too | 03:40 |
|---|
| bruenig | zsh is a neat toy | 03:41 |
|---|
| bruenig | scripting in it is silly however | 03:41 |
|---|
| orudie | nickrud: hey, i fixed my database by just simply reinstalling phpmyadmin | 03:41 |
|---|
| nickrud | orudie: heh. Nice | 03:42 |
|---|
| percy | :) | 03:42 |

| S82 | Anyone who can tell me what widgets people use to get full size'd icons on the bottom instead of the regular styled gnome look? | 03:42 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | S82, I use cairo-dock | 03:43 |
|---|
| usser | S82: you a mac style dock? | 03:43 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | yep | 03:43 |
|---|
| S82 | sec ill show you what i mean | 03:43 |
|---|
| usser | S82: awn or kiba-dock if you have compiz | 03:43 |
|---|

|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | I have compiz and cairo | 03:43 |
|---|
| S82 | I guess thats cairo dock? | 03:44 |
|---|
| amenado | is having a program residing in ramdisk run any faster? or it only meant loading it is faster? | 03:44 |
|---|
| usser | S82: that's kiba-dock | 03:44 |
|---|
| crdlb | S82: that is avant-window-navigator | 03:44 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | S82, there are several themes... I use the cairo doc with osx theme | 03:44 |
|---|
| usser | crdlb: is it? looks like kiba to me | 03:45 |
|---|
| crdlb | usser: yes :) | 03:45 |
|---|
| roantreb | hi all. Nice dock etc. S82 Anyone have an idea how to get texlive working | 03:45 |
|---|
| S82 | crdlb, okay avant also known as awn yeh? | 03:46 |
|---|
| roantreb | go on....crdlb...... | 03:46 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | can u get linux for mobile phone | 03:46 |
|---|
| jrib | roantreb: you just install it and it works :/ | 03:46 |
|---|
| crdlb | S82: yup | 03:46 |
|---|
| xtknight | anyone notice KDE seems to be faster than gnome for large amounts of windows/movement? just in general stuff redraws and feels faster, i dont know what it is | 03:46 |
|---|
| amenado | TrustNoOne-> there are claims thats it has been done | 03:46 |
|---|
| karuna_bd1 | TrustNoOne: that would be cool | 03:47 |
|---|
| S82 | cant find kiba nor awn under synaptic though, do i need to cvs it? | 03:47 |
|---|
| chuy_max | xtknight, I actually feel gtk apps are faster than Qt apps | 03:47 |
|---|
| roantreb | ......mmm..... From the distro site or is it meant to be from a repository | 03:47 |
|---|
| chuy_max | at least Qt < 4.0 | 03:47 |
|---|
| xtknight | chuy_max, really. interesting. i have the opposite experience | 03:48 |
|---|
| zero88 | While in working on a file in Vim, how would i save and quit? I cant seem to be able to do it | 03:48 |
|---|
| bruenig | zero88: :wq :x ZZ | 03:48 |
|---|
| bruenig | pick one they all work | 03:48 |
|---|
| xtknight | you have to press escape then type that | 03:48 |
|---|
| xtknight | :wq | 03:48 |
|---|
| bruenig | yes be in command mode for sure | 03:48 |
|---|
| Scunizi | bruenig, it's so easy.. how could we have not known that | 03:48 |
|---|
| xtknight | lol | 03:48 |
|---|
| bruenig | obviously in insert mode, it will just insert | 03:48 |
|---|
| zero88 | bruenig, ive tried that, and hit enter ,but nothing work | 03:48 |
|---|
| scott | what's a good way to tell what's got my root window locked? | 03:49 |
|---|
| scott | even when I kill metacity, I can't start my other window manager | 03:49 |
|---|
| bruenig | zero88: what does it say at the bottom? | 03:49 |
|---|
| zero88 | bruenig, insert | 03:49 |
|---|
| bruenig | zero88: you are in insert mode, see xtknight's message about how to get to command mode: esc | 03:49 |
|---|
| xtknight | zero88, press escape, type :wq the npress enter | 03:49 |
|---|
| S82 | crdlb, or usser does it need to come from cvs or some other rep than the official? | 03:50 |
|---|
| xtknight | get in command mode, :wq (write+quit); enter (acknowledge command) | 03:50 |
|---|
| zero88 | xtknight, bruenig there it is. thanks alot :) | 03:50 |
|---|
| * bruenig uses :x most often | 03:50 |
| xtknight | zero88, i like nano better personally. nano's save is ctrl+W (write) i think and then ctrl+X exit if you find vim confusing. | 03:50 |
|---|
| xtknight | err ctrl+O | 03:50 |
|---|
| xtknight | writeOut | 03:50 |
|---|
| bruenig | depends on what you are doing with it, try programming in nano, not fun | 03:51 |
|---|
| crdlb | S82: it will be in the repos for hardy (the next release of ubuntu), but for gutsy you'll have to use some sort of 3rd party repository | 03:51 |
|---|
| xtknight | i just like gedit mostly, nice highlighting, etc | 03:51 |
|---|
| `LePGeL[BoY] | i miss this place | 03:51 |
|---|
| S82 | crdlb, got any suggestions to any i can use perhaps? i dont wanna abandon gutsy for hardy :O | 03:51 |
|---|
| * nickrud is itching to get his hands on a hardy rc | 03:51 |
| zero88 | xtknight, ya vim is a little confusing i will try nano | 03:51 |
|---|
| xtknight | just depends on what you're used to i guess | 03:52 |
|---|
| bruenig | just run "vimtutor" you will figure it out | 03:52 |
|---|
| Khisanth | block highlights can be very useful | 03:52 |
|---|
| bruenig | once it does click in about 2 weeks, you will be good to go | 03:52 |
|---|
| chuy_max | scott, why don't u logout and choose another wm | 03:52 |
|---|
| `LePGeL[BoY] | is hardy already out? | 03:52 |

| scott | but still, pekwm cannot grab the root window -- yet metacity has no problems. I'm not quite sure what the deal is | 03:53 |
|---|
| amenado | is having a program residing in ramdisk run any faster? or it only meant loading it is faster? | 03:53 |
|---|
| S82 | usser, ah well guessi ll just get the tarball | 03:53 |
|---|
| chuy_max | Scolo, how are you logging in, gdm? | 03:53 |

| scott | yeah I'm using gdm | 03:54 |

| amenado | nickrud i thought so too, i thought someone here mentioned about having a program in ramfs makes it faster, which i doubted..anyhow... | 03:55 |

| scott | chuy_max: I should mention I'm trying to use pekwm with gnome, I had it working previously and have used a setup like that for eons. But I'm trying to switch back from compiz-fusion to pekwm | 03:57 |
|---|
| usser | S82: I assume you have compiz installed and working? | 03:57 |
|---|
| chuy_max | :o | 03:57 |

| S82 | usser, aye ofcourse :) thanks alot :) | 03:57 |
|---|
| usser | S82: no problem | 03:58 |

| ninja | hello people, my question is this, how do i revert my system back to before it was updated? running ubuntu 8.04 | 04:09 |
|---|
| jrib | ninja: reinstall | 04:09 |
|---|
| jrib | !downgrade | ninja | 04:10 |
|---|
| ubotu | ninja: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system. | 04:10 |
|---|
| ninja | seriously thats my only hope huh? | 04:10 |
|---|
| karuna_bd1 | ninja: kill and reinstall | 04:10 |
|---|
| ninja | i dont want to downgrade to an older ubuntu, i just want the updates off | 04:10 |
|---|
| jrib | ninja: then ask in #ubuntu+1. This is support for stable versions only | 04:11 |
|---|
| ninja | the updates killed my sound, so i figure that would fix it | 04:11 |
|---|
| amenado | ninja umm dont run updates ? | 04:11 |
|---|
| ninja | um no shit but i already did | 04:11 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | ninja, come to #ubuntu+1, nobody here cares | 04:11 |
|---|
| Karsyth | is it possible to remove permissions entirely? its getting very tedious having to run commands as root and whatnot | 04:12 |
|---|
| ninja | like i give a fuck if anyone cares lol, someone might | 04:12 |
|---|
| Karsyth | im the ONLY one who is going to be using this PC | 04:12 |
|---|
| jrib | Karsyth: what are you doing that requires sudo so much? | 04:12 |
|---|
| Flannel | ninja: Hardy is alpha software. #ubuntu+1 is the place for Hardy support, thanks. | 04:12 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | ninja, nobody caring means nobody is going to help you here; come to #ubuntu+1, stop the swearing, and I'll help you out | 04:12 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: i have to set permissions in my ET folder for each and every folder, and sometimes the permissions i change dont save. then i have to do it all over agin | 04:12 |
|---|
| orudie | does anyone here have or had any experience with srcds ? i have a rather simple question | 04:13 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: unless its extremely important, i would just rather not have permissions and have myself as the "root" or admin | 04:13 |
|---|
| ninja | i dont have clue one on how to switch channels | 04:13 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | then say that :p | 04:13 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | what program, xchat? | 04:13 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | /join #ubuntu+1 will usually do it | 04:13 |
|---|
| jrib | Karsyth: explain your ET issue. Running as root is dumb | 04:13 |
|---|
| Damon | fuck ubuntu | 04:13 |
|---|
| ninja | is there maybe a forum for noobs like me, i hit everything google spat out and ive got about 200 bucks worth of books that dont help at all | 04:14 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: in order for ET to save my cfg files i need the permissions to write and read | 04:14 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: that way it will save my profiles instead of having to make a new one each and every time i load | 04:14 |
|---|
| Flannel | ninja: Why are you running Hardy? | 04:14 |
|---|
| jrib | Karsyth: so explain what you are doing exactly. What permissions are you setting? | 04:14 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | ninja, hardy isn't ready for general use yet; pretty much every place you would have downloaded it should have had warnings to that effect. Things break on any given day, wireless, sound, x, etc | 04:15 |
|---|
| ninja | it DID work with my hardware, but not now, lost windows cant afford to buy windows again so i thought this linux thing would be cool, but its so broken | 04:15 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: i have to set permissions for my User (Karsyth) to write and read files, that way when i launch ET and make a profile i can SAVE it too. otherwise it doesnt save the profile | 04:15 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: i have to set the permissions for my ET folder and subfolders to be exact | 04:15 |
|---|
| ninja | and ubuntu 7.** wouldnt even install | 04:15 |
|---|
| jrib | Karsyth: type the exact commands you use | 04:15 |
|---|
| Flannel | ninja: Right, but why not use the stable version? Ubuntu 7.10. Hardy isn't fit for human consumption yet | 04:15 |
|---|
| Karsyth | jrib: im just right clicking the folder | 04:16 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | ninja, gutsy was the version to try. Hardy breaks things that _were_ _working_, as thingsare developped | 04:16 |
|---|
| Flannel | ninja: What wouldn't work with the install of 7.10? | 04:16 |
|---|
| cwillu_ | ninja, however, join #ubuntu+1, or reinstall from 7.10 | 04:16 |

|---|
| quakky_ | ninja: I think im giving up on ubuntu....thank god i duel boot..cuz i can go back to XP anytime | 04:51 |
|---|
| stevendemorez | if anyone can think of possible reasoning behind it | 04:51 |
|---|
| ninja | i thought hopefully someone would help you so id know how to fix my issue quakky, oh well, tried alot of forums, came up with nothing | 04:51 |
|---|
| sCOTTo | hey can oneone tell me where to look to find out what would be blocking my SWAT from being viewable in the browser ? | 04:51 |
|---|
| inssight | what about making a whole directory for the group, is this step even necessary? can i just add a list of allowed dirs for the users prexisting group? ? | 04:51 |
|---|
| bazhang | heh and the wrong #channel | 04:51 |
|---|
| ninja | i wish i could, but i cant afford to | 04:51 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: hopefully it will clean up/remove old stuff | 04:51 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: lol, freed 0b of disk space | 04:51 |
|---|
| quakky_ | jrib: u saying 7.10 is not "stable"? | 04:51 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | techno_freak: yeah, but if the user owns the file, can't he/she change the permissions? | 04:51 |
|---|
| jrib | quakky_: ninja is not using 7.10 | 04:52 |
|---|
| jiggy | how do I boot in low res mode? | 04:52 |
|---|
| bazhang | quakky_: he's not using 7.10 ;] | 04:52 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: how about this one ... sudo aptitude clean | 04:52 |
|---|
| ninja | but we have the same issue, so the same fix will work | 04:52 |
|---|
| bazhang | not so ninja | 04:52 |
|---|
| quakky_ | jrib: well i guess that makes 7.10 unstable too..cuz im getting the same error even though sound worked find yesterday lol | 04:52 |
|---|
| techno_freak | prince_jammys, there should be some one able to change permissions, that's why i did not tell anything about user permissions, let him decide | 04:52 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | plus, if you change all files in the user's dir to read-only, the user might not even be able to log in | 04:53 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | Why opens the MCVIEW(1) manpage, if I instruct 'man view' in a Gnome terminal? | 04:53 |

| inssight | techno_freak, what about making a whole directory for the group, is this step even necessary? can i just add a list of allowed dirs for the users prexisting group? ? | 04:53 |
|---|
| jrib | quakky_: "no sound" is caused by many different things | 04:53 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: there was no output referencing drive space.. when i type df -h i still got 100% full | 04:54 |
|---|
| techno_freak | inssight, i do not know the problem you are trying to solve | 04:54 |
|---|
| petercoh7 | Can someone answer - what are some of the things that will prevent compiz "cube" from working ? | 04:54 |
|---|
| bazhang | inssight: could you specify a bit more please? which directory etc | 04:54 |
|---|
| condor | anyone here ever done a netboot with ubuntu? | 04:55 |
|---|
| quakky_ | jrib: well for me, my ubuntu doesnt detect my soundcard..when i do that command to see the audio devices installed i get this.."aplay: device_list:204: no soundcards found..." | 04:55 |
|---|
| bazhang | condor how are you attempting this? | 04:55 |
|---|
| jrib | !sound > quakky_ (read the private message from ubotu) | 04:56 |
|---|
| condor | running a tftp server and then trying to get the laptop to see the server | 04:56 |
|---|
| inssight | ok, well i have a directory on my computer i would like for my friend to be able to browse freely whenever he pleases, via ssh however i only want him to be able to access that directory, and his home dir | 04:56 |
|---|
| jrib | quakky_: I don't know much about sound, but I can point you to the standard sound troubleshooting page | 04:56 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: in the terminal, sudo du -sh /tmp | 04:56 |
|---|
| olskolirc | hi hi | 04:56 |
|---|
| jiggy | how do I boot in vesa? | 04:56 |
|---|
| inssight | and not be able to modify any files or execute anything unless it's in his home dir | 04:56 |
|---|
| olskolirc | anyone know a good pdf reader where I can highlight my text in cool yellow and make notes within the reader? | 04:57 |
|---|
| techno_freak | inssight, and this other directory outside his home directory? | 04:57 |

| inssight | yes, correct | 04:57 |

| quakky_ | jrib: I have done everything but compile my own audio driver | 04:57 |
|---|
| quakky_ | jrib: if that's what i gotta do then im reinstalling ubuntu | 04:57 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: 728k | 04:57 |
|---|
| gan | i compiled a kernel , the aufs compiled for this not loaded perfectly with kernel why? | 04:58 |
|---|
| condor | but when the laptop looks for the tftp it soesnt find the server | 04:58 |
|---|
| olskolirc | reinstall quakky_ ? | 04:58 |
|---|
| ninja | hey quakky, did you download any software or just the updates? | 04:58 |
|---|
| olskolirc | what's wrong quakky_ ? | 04:58 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | I suddenly cannot see video in any video program (totem, mplayer, vlc, cinelerra, etc.) I can hear the audio, but cannot see the video, it doesn't matter on the video type, avi, mpeg, dv, etc. Any ideas what could be wrong? | 04:58 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: use sudo du -sh each directory until you find one is so large, then go there and find the largest file | 04:58 |
|---|
| condor | you dont have the codecs? | 04:58 |
|---|
| olskolirc | sounds like you need the w32codecs Meshezabeel | 04:59 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | condor, I do have the codecs | 04:59 |
|---|
| quakky_ | olskolirc: long story short..sound worked yesterday ..i did something..soundcard doesnt get detected today..followed all steps and searched the forums | 04:59 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | the videos were always working until just recently | 04:59 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | What's the exact command to reconfigure x, I changed gfx cards and x won't start? | 04:59 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: ok, thanks... youve put me on the right path | 04:59 |

|---|
| rabiddachshund | I'm having a problem with vsftp. I can download but not upload. Any ideas? | 05:00 |
|---|
| olskolirc | did you try alsoconf quakky_ ? you have to download it then just run alsaconf in the terminal | 05:00 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | olskolirc, I do have the w32codecs | 05:00 |
|---|
| condor | etc/x11/x11.conf or soemthing | 05:00 |
|---|
| condor | xorg.conf | 05:00 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: alright. good luck in finding it. | 05:00 |
|---|
| jrib | !md5sums > smatt (read the private message from ubotu) | 05:01 |
|---|
| olskolirc | Meshezabeel when all else fails, I dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg then reapply my nvidia restricted driver | 05:01 |
|---|
| quakky_ | olskolirc: no I actually havnt..ill try to figure out how to download it and run it | 05:01 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | condor, my xorg.conf file has not been changed | 05:01 |
|---|
| ninja | shoot i just tried alsoconf, said command not found | 05:01 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: any ones i might wanna check first? | 05:01 |
|---|
| olskolirc | that happened to me before Meshezabeel | 05:01 |
|---|
| condor | no that was for PurpZeY | 05:01 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | olskolirc, okay, thanks will give that a try | 05:01 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | condor: but there is a command sudo dpkg recongfigure xserver xorg or something like that...b/c I need to use a different driver. | 05:01 |
|---|
| condor | sorry didnt spcify | 05:01 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | con-man, ah, sorry :) | 05:01 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel | condor, lol | 05:02 |
|---|
| olskolirc | quakky down load it like this: sudo apt-get install alsaconf | 05:02 |
|---|
| inssight | sorry guys but i have to run.. i'll post on the forums later | 05:02 |
|---|
| smatt | seriously, can someone verify the md5's for me? I can't find them on the ubuntu.com website | 05:02 |
|---|
| condor | oh you mean to totally reconfigure the card | 05:02 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | !dpkg | 05:02 |
|---|
| ubotu | dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. | 05:02 |
|---|
| jrib | smatt: I just linked you to them. Check your private messages | 05:02 |
|---|
| smatt | i even searched "md5 sum" and it yielded no results | 05:02 |
|---|
| pajamian | smatt: they are in the same place where you downloaded th eiso | 05:02 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | How long takes Tracker to index all files (e-mail, /home and /usr/src)? Mine keeps working for hours. It seems to be broken. | 05:03 |
|---|
| olskolirc | anyone know a good pdf reader where I can highlight my text in cool yellow and make notes within the reader? | 05:03 |
|---|
| smatt | jrib: I didn't get a msg | 05:03 |
|---|
| jrib | !md5sums | smatt | 05:03 |
|---|
| ubotu | smatt: See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes for the md5sums of Ubuntu discs. | 05:03 |
|---|
| smatt | ubotu: thanks | 05:03 |
|---|
| ubotu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 05:03 |
|---|
| pajamian | olskolirc: the only program that I know of that lets you make notes on a pdf is flpsed, and it doesn't let you highlight. | 05:03 |

| tritium | bullgard4: it always runs, I believe | 05:03 |
|---|
| henno | any ideas? | 05:03 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | Can someone please tell me the command for reconfiguring x. I just bought a new video card and I can't start x....I know it's sudo dpkg reconfigure, I think it's xserver xorg? Anyone? | 05:03 |
|---|
| smatt | jrib: : thanks :) | 05:04 |
|---|
| quakky_ | olskolirc: sudo apt-get install alsaconf doesnt work | 05:04 |
|---|
| olskolirc | cool pajamian that's a start | 05:04 |
|---|
| henno | q6600 processor | 05:04 |

| prince_jammys | smatt: from the internet, i got d2334dbba7313e9abc8c7c072d2af09c | 05:04 |
|---|
| olskolirc | it doesn't quakky_ ? let me try | 05:04 |
|---|
| ninja | didnt work for me either quakky | 05:04 |
|---|
| olskolirc | wow they took out alsaconf | 05:04 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | How do I know which driver to use for my new card? | 05:05 |
|---|
| pajamian | olskolirc: also, it actually works on .ps files, but it has an internal importer and exporter (which doesn't always work, I've had to manually convert with pdftops at times). | 05:05 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: /var 31G i think i found it.. lol | 05:05 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | tritium: No, this would be evil. Only the trackerd is a process that does not stop. But it usually sleeps. | 05:05 |
|---|
| tritium | bullgard4: I'm not sure. I don't use it. | 05:05 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | How do I know if it's nv or nvidia? | 05:05 |
|---|
| smatt | ok so check this. i burned that iso using k3b with the verify data option checked. i pop it in the desktop to install (with a freshly dban'd hard drive) and i can't get the thing to run. it throws I/O and read errors out | 05:05 |
|---|
| condor | nv is nvidia | 05:05 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | tritium: Thank you for commenting. | 05:06 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I was reading about ps files today. I don't know if I'll ever have any use for them pajamian ? what's it like? | 05:06 |
|---|
| smatt | I've tried with the generic ide options | 05:06 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: that depends on if you want the open-source or proprietary drivers. | 05:06 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: mine is only 184M /var | 05:06 |
|---|
| tritium | bullgard4: sure | 05:06 |
|---|
| smatt | still same thing | 05:06 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | tritium: Whichever works.... | 05:06 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: try nv first, then. | 05:06 |
|---|
| smatt | so can i burn this same iso to my flash drive instead, to rule out it's my cdrom? | 05:06 |
|---|
| quakky_ | olskolirc: i cant see any point in spending over 3 hours trying to solve my sound issue..i could have reinstalled and updated ubuntu 3 times ... | 05:07 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: i.e, they should both work, but if you don't specifically need nvidia, stick with nv | 05:07 |
|---|
| crdlb | PurpZeY: you need nvidia if you want 3d acceleration though | 05:07 |
|---|
| pajamian | olskolirc: the thing about PDF is it's designed to not be modifiable, it's a sort of "electronic paper" format... | 05:07 |
|---|
| olskolirc | quakky_ why don't you try the update button on the update manager. that usually fixes things | 05:08 |
|---|
| pajamian | olskolirc: so you will be hard pressed to find any program that can edit them. flpsed does about as good of a job as I've seen, and it can only add text, it can't remove anything. | 05:08 |
|---|
| henno | can anyone help me out?? q6600, SMP kernel, but only one core showing up | 05:08 |
|---|
| ninja | olskolirc thats what screwed quakky and i up is the updateing thing | 05:08 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: something was filling up by either playing the app or updating went wrong. keep looking in /var especially /var/tmp and /var/cache. depends on what du -sh tells ya | 05:08 |
|---|
| CVD-PR | Hey there, its there a way to know the last time i log-on? | 05:08 |
|---|
| olskolirc | or even go into software sources and find out what broke | 05:08 |
|---|
| smatt | i see the article on lifehacker, but it specifies ubuntu-live. | 05:09 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: something in /var/backup its at 31G also | 05:09 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | crdlb: I have a larger issue though. X failed to start, I believe b/c I specified the card in the wrong location...It's in PCI Express...What would that location be called xserver-xorg ? | 05:09 |
|---|
| blind | hey, can an op PM me, my friend is banned and doesn't know why | 05:09 |
|---|
| olskolirc | ohhh ok ninja | 05:09 |
|---|
| smatt | i figure the same could be done with the desktop? | 05:09 |
|---|
| quakky_ | olskolirc: im pretty sure i have the most updated version of linux,...and like Ninja said I had sound yesterday..updated today (cuz i was having graphics issues) and i couldnt hear anything | 05:09 |
|---|
| jrib | blind: join #ubuntu-ops | 05:09 |
|---|
| blind | k, thanks | 05:09 |
|---|
| olskolirc | then apt-get deselect-upgrade | 05:09 |
|---|
| CVD-PR | ? | 05:09 |
|---|
| ninja | yeah, and i think this holds true for quakky also, but it dosent even recognise that there is a sound card | 05:09 |
|---|
| olskolirc | there was no better release then fiesty fawn if you ask me | 05:10 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: okay. you're getting there. did u use backup app? or script? | 05:10 |
|---|
| ninja | sorry quakky, dont mean to speak for ya, but we are having the exact same issue, i knew i wasnt alone lol | 05:10 |
|---|
| pajamian | olskolirc: and if you print from linux then you use ps files. | 05:10 |
|---|
| olskolirc | ohhh ok pajamian | 05:10 |
|---|
| quakky_ | well apt-get deselect-upgrade doesnt work either | 05:10 |
|---|
| bazhang | ninja yours was an update to hardy; different from quakky_'s issue | 05:10 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oh wow | 05:10 |
|---|
| stevendemorez | could anyone tell me how to access and manipulate my webcam so I don't get a chan error? | 05:11 |
|---|
| quakky_ | i think im gonna go boot up windows xp...*sigh* | 05:11 |
|---|
| condor | xp.... | 05:12 |
|---|
| olskolirc | how is hardy? | 05:12 |
|---|
| persib | -4--] | 05:12 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9 | 05:12 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: apparently so.. lol there are backup files from 1 year ago.. | 05:12 |
|---|
| condor | quakky_, you are using sudo right? | 05:12 |
|---|
| quakky_ | ya | 05:12 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | Can someone help me reconfigure x properly to start with my new video card. I am getting "Failed to initialize device" and Screens found, but none have usuable configuration | 05:13 |
|---|
| quakky_ | im putting sudo apt-get deselect-upgrade ..thats how u do it right? | 05:13 |
|---|
| danny | can anyone help me learn how to install programs | 05:13 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | danny: You can install programs 3 different ways. | 05:13 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | danny: 4 really. | 05:13 |
|---|
| bazhang | jiggy: could you hit ctrol alt f1 when you get the black screen and try this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:13 |
|---|
| Daisuke_Ido | !repositories > danny read the message from ubotu | 05:14 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: ok. you need to decide to remove it or not. or move it to another place such as external drive (if you have one). | 05:14 |
|---|
| bazhang | danny: sudo apt-get install packagename after you have the repos enabled and refreshed/reloaded | 05:14 |
|---|
| henno | anyone have a q6600 and can help a dude out? | 05:14 |
|---|
| Daisuke_Ido | i'm thinking synaptic would be a better way for someone that knows NOTHING about installing | 05:15 |
|---|
| quakky_ | <condor> the only reason i probably going back to xp (for the 2nd time) is because xp doesnt require u to spend 2 days trying to get ur graphics card and sound card to work .... it's all about the drivers.. | 05:15 |
|---|
| condor | ive never had probs with grfx or sound cards | 05:15 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: nah, i just want to delete them im in the directory now as root... whats the command to delete? | 05:15 |
|---|
| quakky_ | well i probably do cuz the hardware i got is pretty new | 05:15 |
|---|
| ninja | what kind of equipment you using condor, or do you have a phd in programming | 05:16 |
|---|
| quakky_ | lol | 05:16 |
|---|
| condor | ive been hacking for 25 yrs... | 05:16 |
|---|
| petercoh8 | hi, can someone help me with compiz ? I have an onboard Intel graphics controller and I'm wondering if it will work at all | 05:16 |
|---|
| ninja | ah ok | 05:17 |
|---|
| condor | its not rocket science | 05:17 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | petercoh8: It can work depending on the card and how much ram you have...it's sort of slow. | 05:17 |
|---|
| thiefness | petercoh8: i have an intel mobile graphics card and it works with compiz | 05:17 |
|---|
| ninja | no its more complex than that | 05:17 |
|---|
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot condor this might help; if not I have one other link for you | 05:17 |
|---|
| condor | bazhang, ill check that out | 05:17 |
|---|
| ninja | like when installing from tar and the dependancies need dependencies | 05:17 |
|---|
| petercoh8 | I've got 1GB Ram | 05:17 |
|---|
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet this is it condor | 05:17 |

| SisyphusINC | how do you enable dvd playback in ubuntu? | 05:18 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | Can anyone help me get x started with dpkg-reconfigure...I just installed a new gfx card and I can't get any GUI at all...I think I gave dpkg the right settings so I don't know why it's failing | 05:18 |
|---|
| jrib | !dvd > SisyphusINC (read the private message from ubotu) | 05:18 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: to play safe .. rm -i *.<filename extension> (it'll ask you before remove) | 05:18 |
|---|
| bazhang | petercoh8: the experts in #compiz-fusion can sort that in no time ;] | 05:18 |
|---|
| condor | ok cool the first one i read not the second thanks bazhang | 05:18 |
|---|
| petercoh8 | hey thanks | 05:18 |
|---|
| ninja | whats this private message from ubotu? | 05:18 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | It's secret. | 05:19 |
|---|
| bazhang | condor sorry to keep you waiting | 05:19 |
|---|
| quakky_ | it's when u do things like !sound | 05:19 |
|---|
| condor | no its cool | 05:19 |
|---|
| ninja | !sound | 05:19 |
|---|
| ubotu | 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).

| SisyphusINC | why is the a diagonal break across my video playback? | 05:20 |
|---|
| bazhang | ah ninja? the sound issue for hardy #ubuntu+1 is a bit different, okay? there are actual people in there right now troubleshooting it if you really want to get that fixed | 05:20 |
|---|
| tritium | ninja: wrong channel for Hardy. You've been told before! | 05:20 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: that's okay ... i will tell you how to remove that dir after you finished empty out /var/backup | 05:21 |

| bazhang | heh | 05:21 |

| PurpZeY | This is the last time I will repeat, so I am sorry...But, is there anyone who can please help me with a dpkg-reconfigure in order to get my new gfx card working...I am stuck in CLI and I don't know how to fix it. | 05:21 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: you stuck with out X? | 05:22 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: state the question | 05:22 |
|---|
| olskolirc | PurpZeY dpkg-reconfigure <your X display | 05:23 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | tritium: I just installed a new graphics card. X will not start. I tried walking through reconfigure to no avail and I don't really know exactly what settings in reconfigure I need to make it work again | 05:23 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | Is 'kill -9 15904' the proper syntax to stop Tracker from indexing? | 05:23 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: i got it now. :D rm -r *.inc | 05:23 |
|---|
| olskolirc | FliesLikeABrick: dpkg-reconfiger xerver-xorg | 05:23 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: did you select nv, as I told you? | 05:23 |
|---|
| stevendemorez | I'm getting a vdiocgchan: invalid argument line after any v4l dov4l queries to my webcam... any ideas as to how to alleviate this? | 05:23 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oops | 05:23 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | tritium: I tried both nv and nvidia | 05:23 |
|---|
| nix_chix0r | I think people should check this link out. http://video.stumbleupon.com/#p=pbrcxtwqob if that doesn't simplify linux nothing will. imo | 05:23 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: then what? | 05:23 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: ok. you got it. :P | 05:23 |
|---|
| olskolirc | my irc just went ballistic on me | 05:23 |
|---|
| olskolirc | ok PurpZeY I have it | 05:24 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9:now i just have to turn off that backup.. thanks a million, i had no idea on how to figure out where all my disk space was going. | 05:24 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | tritium: Then I followed the the reconfigure and I got "Failed to initialize..." "Screens found but no configuration." I can tell you what other erros you need to know but I can't paste it b/c I have no way of doing so. | 05:24 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: got lots of space back now? | 05:24 |
|---|
| tritium | PurpZeY: understood | 05:24 |
|---|
| olskolirc | PurpZeY do: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and then reapply your nvidia driver in restricted drivers | 05:24 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:24 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: but i knew i wasn't crazy when my HD kept getting fuller and fuller... | 05:24 |
|---|
| bazhang | oops | 05:24 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | olskolirc: I am in feisty... | 05:25 |
|---|
| olskolirc | it should still work PurpZeY but I don't know about reapplying the restriced nvidia driver part. I don't remember | 05:25 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: 239M in /var now | 05:26 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: i have seen it quite often at work; sometimes i get paged when the disk is 100% full | 05:26 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | olskolirc: That should not be an issue for me b/c I am in fiesty. I don't have restricted drivers manager...I know the issue you speak of. | 05:26 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: now that looks right. | 05:26 |
|---|
| usurpergoat | IcemanV9: thanks again, time for bed. cya | 05:27 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I loved fiesty but I'm spoiled on Gutsy now. ever think about upgrading PurpZeY ? | 05:27 |
|---|
| quakky_ | alright guys im outta here..thanks for the help.. but 1 last question..should i post on the forums to try to get a solution? | 05:27 |
|---|
| IcemanV9 | usurpergoat: terrific. have a good night. | 05:27 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: indeed would be worth an upgrade | 05:27 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | olskolirc: I'd consider it, but I like my setup and I don't like risking things. That being said atm my priority is to get *something* working | 05:27 |
|---|
| bazhang | quakky_: for alsa? | 05:27 |
|---|
| olskolirc | yes quakky_ post | 05:28 |
|---|
| quakky_ | bazhang: ya | 05:28 |
|---|
| quakky_ | olskolirc: ok | 05:28 |
|---|
| bazhang | quakky_: some really brilliant folks in #alsa | 05:28 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: Like I said, it would be something I'd consider....if feisty was working...atm I have CLI... | 05:28 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oh im sorry PurpZeY i forgot, what was broke again? | 05:28 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: get the alternate cd that will do the trick; www.ubuntu.com | 05:29 |
|---|
| quakky_ | bazhang: oh good idea..ill join that channel see if they can do something | 05:29 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | olskolirc: I just put a new gfx card into my machine...now I got no x. They are both nvidia cards this one is just much better. | 05:29 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: While I appreciate the advice I would hope that the fix for the problem isn't, upgrade, that will fix it for sure. | 05:29 |
|---|
| bazhang | quakky_: a bit quiet at times, but they will get it sorted when they are awake ;] | 05:29 |
|---|
| Karsyth | i cant figure out how to search a folder for all files it contains. can anyone help? | 05:30 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oh yes, PurpZeY : dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg you'll be fine | 05:30 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | olskolirc: I did that | 05:30 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | olskolirc: Perhaps I am missing a step in that process....which is sort of what I've been asking | 05:30 |
|---|
| olskolirc | ewwww bad | 05:30 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: what card is it? | 05:30 |
|---|
| bazhang | finally | 05:30 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I don't know PurpZeY | 05:30 |
|---|
| olskolirc | download nvidia (new) | 05:31 |

| === dgtlchlk is now known as dgtl|screen |
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: That change the situation at all? | 05:32 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I have an issue nobody can solve. I have a projector for my monitor on an 80 inch hdtv wall hang. I want it to spread out more. Do I adjust the params in dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg? I'm scared | 05:32 |
|---|
| olskolirc | to make it wider to fit | 05:33 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: no idea, i'm looking in google :) | 05:33 |
|---|
| bmac2 | I have untunt and kubuntu installed on several machines, but I am having issues with my dell server | 05:33 |
|---|
| quakky_ | bazhang: lol seems #alsa is kinda dead | 05:33 |
|---|
| bmac2 | I can install every distro / OS on it except for ubuntu/kubuntu get a squashfs error | 05:33 |
|---|
| bmac2 | part of the way through the install | 05:33 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: Good idea. If I don't get a fix soon, I'll kick it around tomorrow I guess....But maybe you'll turn up something...Shoulda do it myself. | 05:33 |
|---|
| bmac2 | anyone seen this before? | 05:34 |
|---|
| bazhang | quakky_: hehe well I warned you; but when they are awake they can fix most things in short order | 05:34 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: you don't have envy installed right? | 05:34 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: No. | 05:34 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: ok good. | 05:34 |
|---|
| bmac2 | I tried the aic7xxx.aic7xxx=no_probe switch | 05:34 |
|---|
| bazhang | phew | 05:34 |
|---|
| quakky_ | bazhang: alright..well it wont hurt to post the problem on the ubuntu forums, and thats what im planning on doing. thanks | 05:34 |
|---|
| bazhang | quakky_: okay; sorry I stink at fixing sound problems | 05:35 |
|---|
| ashwini | hi | 05:36 |
|---|
| olskolirc | wouldn't envy be a good thing prince_jammys ? | 05:36 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | !envy | 05:36 |
|---|
| ubotu | envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver » | 05:36 |
|---|
| olskolirc | ohhh i see | 05:36 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: is this what you get?: | 05:37 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device! | 05:37 |

| prince_jammys | (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration | 05:37 |

| grizlo42 | hello | 05:37 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: YES! | 05:37 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | i am having an apache crisis | 05:37 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | i deleted a folder in var/www/ | 05:37 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | and then added a new folder | 05:37 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: you know how to browse the web from CLI? | 05:37 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | No. | 05:37 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | and when i go to local host, the new folder doesn´t appear | 05:38 |
|---|
| quakky_ | btw guys when is the next big upgrade happening to ubuntu? i heard it was like less than a month | 05:38 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: use www-browser or install "elinks" for nicer display | 05:38 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=665018 | 05:38 |
|---|
| chuy_max | PriceChild, w3m? | 05:38 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | and the folder i reset contents of came up with an error, saying index.php can´t be found | 05:38 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | and i know it is in there | 05:38 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | Out of curiosity....Just to complicate the issue...I did more than update my gfx card. I actually rebuilt my machine completely and supplanted the harddrives....Might I be better off just installing over my current install? | 05:38 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | anyone know what to do? | 05:38 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | i reset cache | 05:38 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | everything | 05:38 |
|---|
| chuy_max | prince_jammys, w3m? | 05:38 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | chuy_max: that too | 05:39 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: that can be fixed as well most likely; just need to setup grub again | 05:39 |
|---|
| TonyWong | Is the wifi setup via CLI under Ubuntu and gOS same? | 05:39 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: check out that thread. you can do : www-browser http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=665018 | 05:39 |
|---|
| bazhang | TonyWong: the ifconfig iwconfig sudo dhclient eth0 etc like that? | 05:40 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys, bazhang: grub is working fine. But it is literally a brand new computer....Maybe a fresh install would be better | 05:40 |
|---|
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 TonyWong this is the ubuntu cli way ;] | 05:40 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | pls anyone? | 05:41 |
|---|
| TonyWong | thx | 05:41 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | i really need this by tomorrow | 05:41 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: never reinstall when you can spend hours in here ;] | 05:41 |
|---|
| chuy_max | grizlo42, create an index.html in /var/www | 05:42 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: if you want ... but you should be able to fix this problem without reinstalling. if looking online from CLI is annoying, boot from live CD | 05:42 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | Is 'kill -9 15904' the proper syntax to stop Tracker from indexing? | 05:42 |
|---|
| bazhang | grizlo42: have you tried #apache ? | 05:42 |
|---|
| chuy_max | and type localhost grizlo42 in firefox | 05:42 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: No, I'm serious....I am asking a real question....I built literally scrapped my entire machine except for my hard-drives....Now also Ubuntu isn't recognizing my network card....Is a new install a better way to go? | 05:42 |
|---|
| chuy_max | grizlo42, does it work? | 05:43 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: Ubuntu is not recognizing my network card either. | 05:43 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: I am serious too (except for the length of time); that should be fixable; one problem at a time though | 05:43 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oh hell PurpZeY at that point scrap it all lol | 05:43 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | yeah | 05:44 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | the index.html thing works | 05:44 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I was fooling around with kde4 the other day and messed my system up really bad | 05:44 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel1 | olskolirc, thanks, I ran dpkg-reconfigure, and removed the nvidia proprietary drivers. Video playback now works fine, however, when I re-enable the nvidia drivers, I just get a black screen on videos again. | 05:44 |
|---|
| chuy_max | grizlo42, ok, rename it for index.php, what happens? | 05:44 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I had to uninstall kde and reinstall kde and kubuntu to get it back | 05:44 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | let me try | 05:44 |
|---|
| olskolirc | thank god my files systems were still there and all my hard work | 05:44 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | Different question: If I install without formatting, will Ubuntu still have my files present? | 05:45 |
|---|
| stevendemorez | is there a v4l2 wrapper or something to make your device compatible to v4l programs | 05:45 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: if it is a rather fresh install then just reinstalling would be a good choice, but if you have tons of data you want to save then you might want to try fixing it; just something to consider | 05:45 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: I was under the impression that if I reinstalled without reformatting I wouldn't lose data. | 05:45 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | it still works | 05:45 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: seperate /home partition? | 05:45 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | if rename it | 05:45 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: That the only way....Otherwise if I install over I'm out of it? | 05:46 |
|---|
| chuy_max | grizlo42, ok, so problem solved, isn't it? | 05:46 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | how can i change the permission of /usr/share/azureus so that i can write to it, so that azureus can do updates without running as root? | 05:46 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel1 | any more ideas olskolirc? | 05:47 |
|---|
| bazhang | PurpZeY: if you explicitly created a seperate home partition then a reinstall will leave your data alone; if not then no | 05:47 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, use chmod | 05:47 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: I did not. | 05:47 |
|---|
| olskolirc | sound issue right Meshezabeel1 ? | 05:47 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | let me check | 05:47 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | i don´t think so | 05:47 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | cause if i delete index.html | 05:47 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | then it shows the folders | 05:47 |
|---|
| olskolirc | or video Meshezabeel1 | 05:47 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | chuy_max, yeah i got that far but i dont know the entire command to use | 05:47 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | and it doesn´t show all of the ones it should | 05:47 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel1 | olskolirc, video, yes | 05:47 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, are you aware of permissions?, rwx? | 05:48 |
|---|
| olskolirc | hmmm | 05:48 |
|---|
| olskolirc | can you pull the card? | 05:48 |
|---|
| olskolirc | and reinstall it | 05:48 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | chuy_max, would it be "sudo chmod +w /usr/share/azureus" | 05:48 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | nope | 05:48 |
|---|
| j_ | Is there a command to revmove an synaptic package manager files? | 05:48 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | problem still there | 05:48 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oops, Meshezabeel1 pull the card and reinstall it | 05:48 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, give full permissions with sudo chmod 777 /usrblabla | 05:49 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | bazhang: I have one crucial partition that is NTFS that I would NEED to save. Otherwise, I'd be OK. | 05:49 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel1 | olskolirc, it is my playback of avi, mpeg, dv, wmv videos that don't work when nvidia proprietary drivers are enabled, it used to work fine but suddenly stopped working last week | 05:49 |
|---|
| bazhang | j_: something you installed with synpatic you wish to remove with the cli? is that the thrust of your question? | 05:49 |
|---|
| olskolirc | ohhh ok Meshezabeel1 | 05:49 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | chuy_max, i dont want full permission, just write so it can do updates, so would i use that command i previously mentioned? | 05:49 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | what is the terminal command to remove all php, mysql, and apache stuff from my comp | 05:49 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | so i can re install | 05:49 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: you said you just updated everything ... do you have another hard drive lying around? | 05:49 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, yes, you can also do that | 05:49 |
|---|
| j_ | bazhang yep | 05:49 |
|---|
| olskolirc | let me think a second Meshezabeel1 | 05:49 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: No. But I imagine I could buy one. | 05:50 |
|---|
| bazhang | j_: sudo apt-get remove packagename | 05:50 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | anyone? | 05:50 |
|---|
| j_ | bazhang for example i accidently install this game call abuse | 05:50 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | yeah | 05:50 |
|---|
| j_ | bazhang thanks | 05:50 |
|---|
| olskolirc | Meshezabeel1: cat > /dev/video0 | 05:50 |
|---|
| grizlo42 | but do you know which packages i need to remove? | 05:50 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: Everything except my harddrives...The idea was to save my hard-drives and just supplant them over to the new machine. | 05:50 |
|---|
| olskolirc | smack it around a bit lol | 05:50 |
|---|
| bazhang | olskolirc: not very helpful | 05:50 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: you could also try to copy your files to the ntfs partition and then copy back after reinstall ... | 05:50 |
|---|
| olskolirc | see if he gets scribble bazhang | 05:51 |
|---|
| chuy_max | grizlo42, what is the problem, I thought you couldn't open php scripts | 05:51 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: or burn to cd, if they fit | 05:51 |
|---|
| olskolirc | I'd kill to get my mythtv going | 05:51 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | chuy_max, and so changing permission to write for /usr/share/azureus will only affect azureus folder, not the folders containing it right? so usr and share will not be +w? | 05:51 |
|---|
| olskolirc | im using a pvr card and im running it through vlc | 05:51 |
|---|
| bazhang | olskolirc: mythbuntu? | 05:51 |
|---|
| olskolirc | say what bazhang ? /me mouth hanging open | 05:52 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel1 | olskolirc, I think I just wiped out my /dev/video0 with the > in the line you gave me | 05:52 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, yes, if you want to include files and dirs under that directory, you want to add -R | 05:52 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: I am not so terribly concerned about the files on my ubuntu drive....It's my other drive I want to try to save really. | 05:52 |
|---|
| bazhang | olskolirc: they have a channel for mythbuntu you know | 05:52 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | PurpZeY: the NTFS? that won't be affected | 05:52 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, chmod -R +w /blabla | 05:52 |
|---|
| olskolirc | my issue bazhang is that my config is full screen and my close doesn't close. I have to restart X to get back | 05:53 |
|---|
| olskolirc | what happened Meshezabeel1 ? | 05:53 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | prince_jammys: So, maybe I get a new install...if of course I can get my computer to recognize my SATA disc drive. If it did that, then I'd be reinstalling already. | 05:53 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | chuy_max, ok that will only affect the folders azureus and the folders within it right? not the folders usr or share? | 05:53 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | TrustNoOne: right, the permissions will affect only the file you say (unless you do -R for recursive when changing permissions for a directory). but the parent dirs will never be affected | 05:53 |
|---|
| chuy_max | TrustNoOne, right | 05:53 |
|---|

| Meshezabeel1 | olskolirc, cat > /dev/video0 just hangs, when I try it without the > it says 'no such device', but when I ls, I see a /dev/video0 there | 05:53 |
|---|
| kavik | hello | 05:53 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | TrustNoOne: still seems weird that you would need to do that with azureus, though | 05:54 |
|---|
| bazhang | olskolirc: the channel is #ubuntu-mythtv if you are interested | 05:54 |
|---|
| olskolirc | oh its fine then Meshezabeel1 did you see scribble? | 05:54 |
|---|
| kavik | how do i burn image to cd? | 05:54 |
|---|
| olskolirc | thanks bazhang I'll write that down | 05:54 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | prince_jammys, because it is the newest version which was a zip file that i just extracted to that location, it had no install script, it just has a run script | 05:55 |
|---|
| bazhang | kavik: right click open with cd/dvd creator | 05:55 |
|---|
| Meshezabeel1 | olskolirc, scribble? | 05:55 |
|---|
| olskolirc | errr, its been a long time since I did that Meshezabeel1 did you hear static? | 05:55 |
|---|
| chuy_max | kavik, you can easily do it with k3b/gnomebaker | 05:55 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | TrustNoOne: have you tried running it with sudo instead of changing permissions? | 05:55 |
|---|
| kavik | i'm on vista right now | 05:56 |
|---|
| TrustNoOne | prince_jammys, i do not want to run any program with sudo unless i have to | 05:56 |
|---|
| prince_jammys | kavik: go to places->cd burner and drag the image file into the window. then select "burn as image" | 05:56 |
|---|
| bazhang | isorecorder2 then should work kavik | 05:56 |
|---|
| kavik | I don't have anything to burn the image with | 05:56 |
|---|
| PurpZeY | TrustNoOne: I think the suggestion is you might have to in this scenario. | 05:56 |
|---|
| chuy_max | kavik, download nero | 05:56 |
|---|

|---|
| l815 | SuperQ, do you know where the gnome themes are installed then? so i can copy them over | 06:40 |
|---|
| SuperQ | l815: not sure, you should have the original downloaded files | 06:40 |
|---|
| SuperQ | l815: open those up and the files should have instructions | 06:41 |
|---|
| l815 | SuperQ, okay thanks | 06:41 |

| SuperQ | l815: If you stick to Metacity themes that don't contain "gtk 2.x" code, you won't have to worry about them as much | 06:41 |

| bullgard4 | willfrand: Que quieres? | 06:49 |
|---|
| [dcr] | How can I add AWN to the startup? | 06:49 |
|---|
| Killeroid | vikku_: tar -zxvf tarfile.tar , then ./configure then make , then mak install | 06:49 |
|---|
| willfrand | second, i need install some programs, but the ubuntu, tell me (?) that i need configurate the roxen4, and no have help | 06:49 |
|---|
| Killeroid | *make | 06:49 |
|---|
| vikku_ | <pajamian> suppose binutils-older-versio and after doing ar xvzf do i need to get in some dir ? | 06:50 |
|---|
| Killeroid | [dcr]: http://wiki.awn-project.org/FAQ#How_can_I_make_AWN_run_when_my_desktop_starts_up.3F | 06:50 |
|---|
| willfrand | by example, now i am installing the googleearth, and the synaptic tell me configurate the roxen4, how is this? | 06:50 |
|---|
| [dcr] | ty Killeroid=] | 06:50 |
|---|
| tgcondor | Killeroid, vikku_ : -z to tar only for .tar.gz, otherwise just -xvf if it's just .tar | 06:50 |
|---|
| Killeroid | tgcondor: noted and thnx | 06:51 |
|---|
| pajamian | vikku_: yes, you need to change to the directory that was just created by the tar process. So you mean you are trying to build binutils from source because you want an older version, do I understand correctly? | 06:51 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | willfrand: Please use the program 'Synaptic' to install the two packages 'roxen4' and 'roxen4doc'. | 06:52 |
|---|
| willfrand | aja, and next? | 06:52 |
|---|
| tgcondor | vikku_: like pajamian said, 'cd binutils-older-versio' | 06:52 |
|---|
| vikku_ | yes u r right pajamian | 06:52 |
|---|
| willfrand | then, cancel this installation, and after install roxen4, and then, install at new? | 06:53 |
|---|
| vikku_ | ok lemme try tha | 06:53 |
|---|
| pajamian | vikku_: ok, just out of curiosity, why do you want an older version? | 06:53 |
|---|
| vikku_ | tryiing to do a LFS | 06:53 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | willfrand: You said that you want to install the program 'roxen4'. Then you will have it installed. That is all. | 06:53 |
|---|
| willfrand | thanks bullgard, i go to probe | 06:53 |
|---|
| willfrand | to test | 06:53 |
|---|
| pajamian | vikku_: Linux From Scratch? | 06:54 |
|---|
| vikku_ | thats y i need some older versions | 06:54 |
|---|
| vikku_ | yes | 06:54 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | willfrand: Much fuerte! | 06:54 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | willfrand: Mucha fuerte! | 06:54 |
|---|
| pajamian | vikku_: that's a bit much to take on when you don't know how to build a program from source yet. | 06:54 |
|---|
| willfrand | what bullgard$, can do you spanish? | 06:54 |
|---|
| vikku_ | yes thats y my questn was to help me on buildg software | 06:54 |

| bauer__ | Hey start up with xvnc , just have a grey screen ? Which comman should i put in startup ? | 06:54 |

| bullgard4 | willfrand: Un poco. | 06:54 |
|---|
| vikku_ | :) | 06:55 |
|---|
| vikku_ | Dream big you c | 06:55 |
|---|
| pajamian | vikku_: ok, well before you attempt to build binutils you need to have all the libraries and development packages installed that are needed to build it. building stuff from source requires extra dependancies that you don't need when you just install it from a package. | 06:55 |

| stefano_ | so, is anyone here using rsync to any extend? | 07:18 |
|---|
| tgcondor | phuzion: ic, the alternative CD allows you too boot from HDD | 07:18 |
|---|
| Alan_M | Why? | 07:19 |
|---|
| tgcondor | phuzion: I think with a mod you can make it boot from external | 07:19 |
|---|
| phuzion | tgcondor, the person's BIOS does not support direct boot from USB. | 07:19 |
|---|
| phuzion | I was suggesting a different way to do so | 07:19 |
|---|
| vikku_ | the error i get installing binutils are : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59450/ | 07:19 |
|---|
| tgcondor | phuzion: right, so the person would be booting from CD which then passes control to USB | 07:20 |
|---|
| phuzion | Right | 07:20 |
|---|
| stefano_ | the concept of bios is outdated and i hope that we linux'ers can get our hands on efi soon :\ | 07:20 |
|---|
| stefano_ | without buying a mac that is :-) | 07:21 |
|---|
| phuzion | You want to get our hands onto the Equestrian Federation of Ireland | 07:21 |
|---|
| phuzion | ? | 07:21 |

| bauer__ | xvnc , just have a grey screen ? Which command should i put in startup to start a gnome desktop ? | 07:21 |
|---|
| Alan_M | its an old OLD concept...but...it still works..so..i don't see it changing unless someone seriously seriously finds a better idea. | 07:21 |
|---|
| Alan_M | !efi | 07:22 |
|---|
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about efi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:22 |
|---|
| tgcondor | phuzion: i'm guessing the process would be as follows (automated through a script): boot into a minimal live CD that can access USB, then use linux loader to load the kernel from the USB etc | 07:22 |
|---|
| Alan_M | heh, figures | 07:22 |
|---|
| phuzion | Alan_M, I know what EFI is, I was making a joke | 07:22 |
|---|
| stefano_ | Alan_M, there is a better way to do it, and from my understanding it is pretty well documented. (efi) the big difference is that efi knows about devices and partitions whereas bios doesnt have a clue, all it's doing is running whatever is in the MBR | 07:22 |
|---|
| Alan_M | phuzion......maybe I didn't ;) | 07:22 |
|---|
| phuzion | tgcondor, yeah | 07:23 |
|---|
| phuzion | Alan_M, righto | 07:23 |
|---|
| Alan_M | thanks stefano :) | 07:23 |

|---|
| Alan_M | go figure! | 07:26 |
|---|
| stefano_ | it just seems that linux is approaching the mainstream so much, meaning that the 1 year lag that we were used to gets smaller and smaller, i think EFI should be one of the next steps. but i know it runs on macs, which use efi, but you need some proprietary blobs to get it up and running. | 07:26 |

| bluefoxx | i was wondering...is there something similar to the "make available offline" feature of windows? i want to acess certain websites of information offline when my other computer is hogging my bandwidth | 07:28 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bluefoxx, depends on your browser | 07:29 |
|---|
| bluefoxx | stefano_: is there a command i can use? | 07:29 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bluefoxx, i think firefox should do it, but i can't say for sure as i'm using the beta versions of ff3 | 07:30 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bluefoxx, just safe the page | 07:30 |

|---|
| stefano_ | bluefoxx, it uber dramatically ROCKS! but i wouldnt recommend it yet since it crashes every once in a while which can be annoying. but omg it's so much better than 2 (which i gave up using) | 07:31 |

| stefano_ | souper, i was talking about firefox 3 | 07:34 |

| jaek_eee | i have a usb "control module" i'm trying to use... this is what my /var/log/message looks like when i plug it in | 07:37 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | http://pastebin.com/m67441b89 | 07:37 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | anyone know what i have to do to make a new file in /dev/input/? | 07:37 |
|---|
| stefano_ | the biggest change in FF3 is that pages are now rendered with usage of Cairo, which is absolutely awsome because it gives you nice looks (just like any app), good - hardware accellerated - anti aliasing and so on. i just love it, but i'm pretty sure i'm going to go back to epiphany when it has webkit | 07:37 |
|---|
| stefano_ | jaek_eee, i don't think you would want to do that | 07:37 |
|---|
| stefano_ | jaek_eee, doesn't seem to be a good idea. can you explain your problem further? | 07:38 |
|---|
| * Alan_M erases the ot I had planned. | 07:38 |
| jaek_eee | stefano_, the program i'm using requires a device file something like /dev/input/event0 | 07:38 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | stefano_, but this "control module" doesnt seem to be a known device | 07:39 |
|---|
| stefano_ | jaek_eee, what program is it? | 07:39 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | http://unfix.org/projects/empcd/ | 07:39 |
|---|
| * stefano_ opens channel #private142 for arguing about technology | 07:39 |
| Alan_M | Good idea :) | 07:39 |
|---|
| stefano_ | jaek_eee, what kind of device do you want to use to control empcd? | 07:40 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | it is a usb control module from the early 2000s, it has a play/pause/stop/volume/next/prev buttons | 07:40 |
|---|
| Alan_M | brb, gonna go check out the ubuntu beginner team forum and see what I can help with..bodhi_zazen keeps griping because im on the team and im not really helping cut down the unanswered posts. | 07:41 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | stefano_, but google doesnt yield much help... the model number is pmd-c001 | 07:41 |
|---|
| stefano_ | jaek_eee, i think the program expects the device to be found and ready to use, if you just make a file this file won't point to any device. try and see if you can find out if your control thingy was recognised and what the device file for it is, if you know that, either tinker with the program configuration or create a simlink to the device, but if your device hasnt been recognised, it is much more complicated | 07:42 |
|---|
| jaek_eee | stefano_, yes.... i need to get the right udev "rule" it seems so it knows about this uhci device | 07:44 |

|---|
| bmz | the one it set when I installed is slow, when it works at all | 07:46 |
|---|
| stefano_ | jaek_eee, oh wow, i'm not into udev but i do know that it's incredibly complex. and ubuntu goes a very special route with udev rules, i dont think i can help you ad hoc, you might want to post your problem at the ubuntu forums. be sure to include lots of information. i hope that helps you | 07:46 |
|---|
| ^A^kira | how do i turn on wireless on laptop troguh console? | 07:46 |
|---|
| stefano_ | ^A^kira, why would you want to do that? | 07:47 |
|---|
| ^A^kira | becouse i need internet on my laptop and i don't have any network managers installed... had fluxbuntu now installed kde without NM | 07:48 |

| stefano_ | bmz, could very well be, try to find a mirror nerby, i have one just down the street (not literally...) and it's much faster | 07:50 |
|---|
| souper | ok, i've been having this issue lately... | 07:51 |
|---|
| Alan_M | stefano, same here :) | 07:51 |
|---|
| Alan_M | im getting lightning speed | 07:52 |
|---|
| CVD-PR | stefano_, any way to know the last time i logon? | 07:52 |
|---|
| souper | i installed ubuntu into a single root partition and a swap partition and the swap was working fine and hibernating was working as well | 07:52 |
|---|
| bmz | stefano_: I am now using the main site. I just thought that if ubuntu selected that mirror for me and I am in Australia and it is not working reliably it might give people the wrong impression about ubuntu. | 07:52 |
|---|
| Alan_M | Ubuntu is based in South africa I believe? | 07:53 |
|---|
| Alan_M | I know mark is from there..just not sure about where canonical actually is. | 07:53 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bmz that may be true, but for the most part the official mirrors are fairly fast, if you want to have uber speed - if you care, which most of those who would be frightened as you point out wouldt not - select a mirror nearby | 07:53 |
|---|
| stefano_ | oh my god | 07:53 |
|---|
| souper | last week i resized and moved my root partition so i could have a separate home partition, this changed all the dev references for my partitions which caused some problems with grub but i managed to fix that | 07:53 |
|---|
| ^A^kira | Jaapjan-Work> TNX!!! :) | 07:54 |
|---|
| souper | well the other day i noticed the computer wasn't hibernating | 07:54 |

| stefano_ | CVD-PR, thats not exactly what you want i realise | 07:55 |

| up_the_irons | I have gutsy on my thinkpad t61, i just installed the latest kernel. Used same .config as in /boot (that came with the system). Now that i'm running the latest kernel, I no longer have sound support (only PC speaker). Any tips? | 07:57 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, just boot the old kernel until it gets fixed, you don't need the new kernel of anything particular do you? | 07:57 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: i recompiled so i can get keyspan usb-to-serial support (which is not included w/ ubuntu). I guess I could try a recompile with the older kernel | 07:58 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: better qemu/kvm support would be nice though, thought it might work better with newer kernel | 07:59 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, oh i see, than it seems that you didnt include all the required modules for your sound chip. | 07:59 |
|---|
| Alan_M | well boys n girls..fellow ubuntu enthusiasts and new users..im out! Remember, the forums are your friend if you don't get an answer here, check the forums ;) | 07:59 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bye Alan_M | 08:00 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: doesn't the config file included in /boot have the same config as the kernel that was running? (my older one) | 08:00 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: this new kernel has LOTS of modules compiled it, almost everything enabled (took forever to compile) | 08:00 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, you have to include those modules when you're compiling the kernel, /boot doesnt have anything to do with that. | 08:00 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: i mean, not compiled into the kernel, but the modules are compiled | 08:00 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, did you do all the configuration before compiling the kernel by hand? | 08:01 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: well, the /boot/config-`uname -r` does include a file that i can use as .config in my kernel source tree | 08:01 |
|---|
| pppZero | how can i stop apt-get from install unwanted dependencies? | 08:01 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: the only thing i did by hand was enable Keyspan support, every else was left as it was in .config | 08:02 |
|---|
| CVD-PR | ? | 08:02 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: all the other kernel modules seem to work | 08:03 |
|---|
| bluej774 | Does anyone know of a program that can dump frames from video? I can't find any that work. I've already tried "dumpmpeg". | 08:03 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, did you check your blacklists? | 08:03 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bluej774, do you mean dump as in extract or as in remove? | 08:03 |
|---|
| bluej774 | stefano_: I mean extract. | 08:04 |
|---|
| bluej774 | Extract to a png or jpeg or bitmap format. | 08:04 |
|---|
| === co_cr_teman is now known as uswa |
| up_the_irons | stefano_: blacklists? | 08:04 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bluej774, i think there is a program very similar to virtualdub for linux. but obviosly this wouldnt be so great if you want to exctract a lot and maybe script it | 08:04 |
|---|
| bluej774 | stefano_: I just want to extract maybe 10 to 20 contiguous frames. | 08:05 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, there is a blacklist for kernel modules that won't be loaded, i think it's /etc/blacklist or something like that, maybe your sound modules are listed there | 08:05 |
|---|
| stefano_ | bluej774, allthough very gui-focused, maybe pitivi will do the job | 08:06 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: but if that was the case, wouldn't sound not work on the old kernel also? | 08:06 |
|---|
| bluej774 | stefano_: I'll give it a try. | 08:07 |
|---|
| pppZero | bluej774, transcode will do it, see http://mightylegends.zapto.org/dvd/dvdauthor_howto_animenu.html for syntax to get yourself started :) | 08:07 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, i don't know if it's integrated in any way with what kernel you boot. | 08:07 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: ok | 08:07 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, can't you get just a driver (like a kernel module) for this usb to serial converter that you would just enable with modprobe? would be way easier than building a custom kernel | 08:08 |
|---|
| bluej774 | pppZero: Thanks. | 08:08 |
|---|
| souper | why is it that when i set my swap in the fstab by the UUID blkid gives me swapon -a gives me an error about no such file or directory | 08:09 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: probably, but it's not available on keyspan's site, they say 'recompile the kernel' | 08:10 |
|---|
| stefano_ | souper, you could have a problem with the swap partiton | 08:10 |
|---|
| souper | well when i set it by /dev/sda6 it works fine | 08:10 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: they have kernel modules pre-built for other distros, but complain on their site that the debian/ubuntu distros didn't want to include their modules | 08:10 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, thats too bad :( but you are not sure if you included all the right kernel bits and pieces for your sound are you? | 08:10 |
|---|
| souper | the problem is the hibernate script suspends to the disk by uuid | 08:11 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: if you're interested: http://www.keyspan.com/downloads-files/developer/linux/ | 08:11 |
|---|
| stefano_ | hibernate is a pain :( | 08:11 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: i think i figured it out | 08:11 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: ubuntu includes it's own driver: | 08:11 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/snd-hda-intel | 08:11 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | /lib/modules/2.6.22-14-generic/ubuntu/media/snd-hda-intel/snd-hda-intel.ko | 08:11 |
|---|
| souper | and i'm not nearly experienced enough to understand shell scripts as complex as that | 08:12 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: and it disables it in the regular kernel. I guess I just need to go ahead and enable it. But i'm worried if there's anything special ubuntu did, i'll lose that | 08:12 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, oh is this a binary only driver? | 08:12 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, try to type "sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel" into a console and see if your sound suddenly works | 08:13 |
|---|
| stefano_ | could be | 08:13 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: i don't think so, i see the option to enable it in 'make menuconfig' | 08:13 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: but ubuntu doesn't enable it, i guess in favor of it's own version | 08:13 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, that's good, enable it and hope for the best | 08:13 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, this kernel building business can really be a pain | 08:14 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: yeah i'm going to try | 08:14 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: for sure ;) | 08:14 |
|---|
| souper | up_the_irons: here's a shot in the dark but do you have a sound server like oss installed? | 08:14 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, when i did it the first time, nothing would work. but it turned out that just waiting solved my issue (i needed some high-res tick stuff) | 08:15 |
|---|
| cpk1__ | up_the_irons: you can use oldconfig when you recompile the kernel so you dont risk losing anything that was selected by ubuntu if thats what you are worried about | 08:15 |
|---|
| stefano_ | thats a good tip | 08:15 |
|---|
| souper | snd 54660 11 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm_oss,snd_mixer_oss,snd_pcm,snd_seq_oss,snd_rawmidi,snd_seq,snd_timer,snd_seq_device | 08:15 |
|---|
| souper | i use the same sound driver | 08:16 |
|---|
| [dcr] | Is there anyway to increase graphics hardware accelleration in Ubuntu? | 08:16 |
|---|
| souper | that's what lsmod gives me | 08:16 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], what graphics card do you have? | 08:16 |
|---|
| cpk1__ | and xconfig is pretty friendly for people new to kernel compiling | 08:16 |
|---|
| souper | and my sound has worked from the beginning | 08:16 |
|---|
| === cpk1__ is now known as cpk1 |
| bluej774 | pppZero: How can I use those commands, but specify a start and end point on what to dump? | 08:16 |
|---|
| [dcr] | stefano_: its just a intel gms 970 chipset =[ | 08:16 |
|---|
| icesword | guys | 08:17 |
|---|
| [dcr] | but if theres a way to increase hardware acceleration i want to. | 08:17 |
|---|
| techt0nix | how can i install drivers for nvidia 5500 video card | 08:17 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], does the 3d stuff work in general? (eg can you enable desktop effects) | 08:17 |
|---|
| CVD-PR | how to edit the classpath? | 08:17 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | cpk1: but this kernel was downloaded straight from kernel.org, it doesn't have a ubuntu specific 'oldconfig' | 08:17 |
|---|
| [dcr] | yes stefano_ i can | 08:17 |
|---|
| pppZero | bluej774, i honestly cant remember, its been a while since i played with videos :| | 08:17 |
|---|
| stefano_ | techt0nix, open up the restricted drivers manager (or whatever it's called in the english i18n) | 08:18 |
|---|
| Jaapjan-Work | techt0nix: Or use/install Envy. | 08:18 |
|---|
| bluej774 | pppZero: I just don't want to wait for it to dump the whole movie and use all of my hard drive to do it. | 08:18 |
|---|
| techt0nix | stefano, i have did both and the video card still will not boot with ubuntu | 08:18 |
|---|
| pppZero | bluej774, haha i dont blame you :) | 08:18 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | souper: i'm pretty sure the problem is my new kernel doesn't have Intel HD Audio module built | 08:19 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], then there is not much you can do about it. i have the same graphics chip in my notebook and 3d accelleration is a little sluggish, thats just the way it is, i turned off desktop effects. (since then games are much faster) | 08:19 |
|---|
| d4rkmonkey | How do I mount an ISO in Ubuntu so that my computer will read it as if it were a disk? | 08:19 |
|---|
| Jaapjan-Work | d4rkmonkey: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mount-and-unmout-iso-images-without-burning-them.html | 08:19 |
|---|
| m1r | d4rkmonkey: gmountiso | 08:19 |
|---|
| stefano_ | d4rkmonkey, theres a program called something like gmount-iso (i'm not sure what the name is exactly) - but it will do the job without any command line hacking | 08:19 |
|---|
| d4rkmonkey | Thanks everyone | 08:20 |
|---|
| stefano_ | youre welcome | 08:20 |
|---|
| souper | mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/point | 08:20 |
|---|
| [dcr] | stefano_: ah because i have it on normal and i always have AWN turned off when i play urban terror but i only get about 15~45fps unstable in game =( | 08:20 |
|---|
| m1r | np | 08:20 |
|---|
| cpk1 | up_the_irons: yeah i think its "make oldconfig" and it will tell the new kernel to use your old config and then you can go through and make more changes after importing your old config, its important to note though that the ubuntu kernel usually has support for most everything | 08:20 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], thats normal. but here's a tip, set the resolution down as much as you can (without going nuts), that should increase framerate dramatically. but Urban Terror is a pretty demanding game | 08:21 |
|---|
| souper | oh yea that reminds me: how do i make my bash alias' permanent? | 08:21 |
|---|
| YazzY | hi guys | 08:21 |

|---|
| YazzY | any ideas what that is ? | 08:22 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | cpk1: where does the new kernel get the 'oldconfig' from though? | 08:22 |
|---|
| [dcr] | Jaapjan-Work: games that require windows i just use virtualbox lol.. | 08:22 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], sure. i like warsow, openarena and brutalchess, oh and also foobillard. | 08:22 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | cpk1: isn't it just /boot/config-`uname -r` | 08:22 |

| YazzY | fsck, i cant even sudo | 08:23 |
|---|
| YazzY | or su - | 08:23 |
|---|
| Frogzoo | YazzY: you tried booting recovery mode? | 08:23 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], i just spent two weeks playing Peggle by popcap games, it costs about 20€ and runs well under linux (emulated with wine) - it's a lot of fun if you enjoy puzzle games, check it out at the popcap website | 08:24 |
|---|
| YazzY | Frogzoo: no, how would that help ? | 08:24 |
|---|
| nuknght | can someone please help me? | 08:24 |
|---|
| stefano_ | [dcr], i tried to run Enemy Terretory, but it just doesnt run on intel graphics | 08:24 |
|---|
| Frogzoo | YazzY: it's your first step - to see if you can boot single user | 08:24 |
|---|
| stefano_ | nuknght, sure, just tell us your problem | 08:24 |
|---|
| YazzY | Frogzoo: why would i see if i can boot single user mode? | 08:25 |
|---|
| YazzY | it doesnt make any sense | 08:25 |

|---|
| up_the_irons | cpk1: stefano_ : ok, sound now works, I loaded the newly built snd-hda-intel.ko | 08:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | tarelerulz, i thin some guys have got it running with VLC | 08:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, thats great! | 08:25 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: however, my thinkpad volume up/down buttons don't work. i'm thinking maybe i should stick with the old kernel... | 08:26 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: cuz this could turn into one little thing after another... | 08:26 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, you can have both, if you have to use your converter, boot the custom kernel, otherwise boot the old one | 08:26 |
|---|

| souper | try building a gentoo install | 08:26 |
|---|
| stefano_ | don't ;) | 08:26 |
|---|
| stefano_ | to install gentoo, you need a soldering iron and a very steady hand | 08:27 |
|---|
| stefano_ | :> | 08:27 |
|---|
| souper | hah | 08:27 |
|---|
| nuknght | stefano_: I've tried ubuntu, ubuntu studio, xubuntu and freespire and they all get stuck at the same spot... | 08:27 |
|---|
| nuknght | left it on for 8 hours today just to be sure | 08:27 |
|---|
| d4rkmonkey | Alright, I can mount the ISOs fine, is there any way to make my computer think they're DVDs, because its looking at them like data CDs | 08:27 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: yeah, but that's kinda a pain | 08:27 |
|---|
| nuknght | freepire comes up with multiple errors as well | 08:27 |
|---|
| stefano_ | what spot is that nuknght | 08:27 |

| souper | i spent a week trying to install gentoo and finally gave up because i couldn't get the kernel modules just right | 08:28 |

| zingo | Hi, How can I open/play an online "flash player" streaming video , in my own video player like mplayer or vlc player , so that I can watch it full screen etc. ?? I know that on some streaming content I can copy link and then paste that into my media player , but there is no "copy link" option in a flash streaming video content (for example this video: http://www.ndtv.com/convergence/ndtv/videopod/default.aspx ). Thanks | 08:28 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: i might just have to go that route for now.. | 08:28 |
|---|
| nuknght | Saving vesa state | 08:28 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, how often do you have to use the serial converter? | 08:28 |
|---|
| bluej774 | pppZero: I figured it out, but the program still has to start at the beginning of the file, so that sucks. | 08:28 |
|---|
| pppZero | bluej774, worked out how i did it last time, install avidemux, set A and B points, set it to COPY, and hit save, it'll just save the litle bit of video you want. then use transcode to convert the video into jpeg files. | 08:28 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: not very often | 08:28 |
|---|
| pppZero | lol | 08:28 |
|---|
| bluej774 | It just skips frames until it hits the ones you want. | 08:28 |
|---|
| souper | d4rkmonkey dvd's essentially are data cds | 08:29 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, good, then booting your custom kernel every once in a while shouldnt be too bad | 08:29 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: yeah | 08:29 |
|---|
| souper | try pointing your player to where its mounted | 08:29 |
|---|
| stefano_ | nuknght, i don't think i fully understand it. what exactly do you mean by saving vesa state? is it somewhat like the standby mode? | 08:29 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: regarding the keyspan drivers though, i do 'sudo modprobe keyspan', all i well, but i don't know which /dev/* to use. Is there a way i can find that out programatically? | 08:29 |
|---|
| nuknght | no, its during the install after it mounts ?? (something) .... | 08:30 |
|---|
| vintage_12 | hd' | 08:30 |
|---|
| stefano_ | up_the_irons, run dmesg after you plugged it in, it will show you the information i think | 08:30 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: oh ok | 08:31 |
|---|
| stefano_ | nuknght, i see, do you have any special hardware? (like a raid controller or something like that) | 08:31 |
|---|
| up_the_irons | stefano_: let me try | 08:31 |
|---|
| nuknght | when i put freespire on my drive with xp and ran the live cd it loaded after the whole vesa state thing. i popped my new hdd in and darn thing freezes up | 08:31 |

| nuknght | yeah, I ran the test on em. they are good | 08:40 |

| stefano_ | OsamaK, do you know what graphics card you have? | 08:40 |

| OsamaK | Hum... | 08:40 |

|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, no, i don't sorry, but when you boot up the cd it should offer you to boot in "safe graphics" mode, try that | 08:41 |
|---|
| OsamaK | stefano_, I have tried "noapic" | 08:42 |
|---|
| OsamaK | stefano_, Is this what are you meaning? | 08:42 |

| stefano_ | OsamaK, if you havent got much RAM, the ubuntu live cd might not work. if you want to install ubuntu anyway, you can use the "alternate cd", thats fairly easy, but you have to prepare your hard drive | 09:11 |
|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, do you know how much RAM you have? | 09:12 |

| OsamaK | stefano_, I'm using Ubuntu in my laptop, it's working very well. This Computer is higher RAM than my laptop (1GB) | 09:12 |

| Johnuah | how long will EEEPC power on with out DC | 09:13 |
|---|
| souper | Osamak, you could try installing via the OEM text-based install | 09:13 |
|---|
| OsamaK | What's that? | 09:13 |
|---|
| Johnuah | Asus EEEpc | 09:14 |
|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, well sorry, i don't know why it doesnt work then. but i would recommend that you download the "alternate cd" and use it to install ubuntu on that machine, that would work most certainly | 09:14 |
|---|
| stefano_ | Johnuah, about two hours | 09:14 |
|---|
| OsamaK | stefano_, link? | 09:14 |
|---|
| souper | it's on the live cd one of the other boot options | 09:14 |
|---|
| TUplink | still no DSP tho | 09:14 |
|---|
| Johnuah | tks stefano | 09:14 |
|---|
| OsamaK | Is there a tornet file of it? stefano_ | 09:14 |
|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download there is a little checkbox below the green "start download" button, check this box to get the alternate cd | 09:15 |
|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, yes there is, but i don't know where, you can just use a mirror near you that should be fairly fast | 09:15 |
|---|
| OsamaK | well, sorry for that | 09:16 |
|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, did you get the link? | 09:17 |
|---|
| TUplink | anyways ALSA is sound drivers right? | 09:17 |

|---|
| Johnuah | could anyone give me a guide link of mail server installation based ubuntu server 710 with not only web browser but also pop3 & smtp | 09:18 |
|---|
| Linuxchix0r | the kernel should detect your sound card if its supported | 09:18 |
|---|
| TUplink | its an old mobo so im sure it should have drivers | 09:18 |
|---|
| stefano_ | OsamaK, i don't know, you can search for it with google, there should be one, it should be named ubuntu-7.10-alternate something like that | 09:18 |
|---|
| OsamaK | stefano_, Thanks a lot. let me see you again | 09:18 |

| ugenk_ | hi room | 09:19 |

| saqimtiaz | hey guys, I need some help with a Ubuntu 7.10 and Vista dual boot issue. I had an NTFS partition (X) that I was using in both, as of the last few days the partition is no longer accesible in vista, but works fine in Ubuntu. Vista always runs a chkdsk on it at startup and can see the files, but once booted cannot access the partition giving the error message: 'this drive or folder is corrupted and cannot be accessed'- Any ideas? | 09:22 |
|---|
| Viktorious | when does ubuntu 8.04 come out and what will change | 09:22 |
|---|
| Linuxchix0r | it comes out in april | 09:23 |
|---|
| souper | saqimtiaz i have the same exact problem | 09:23 |
|---|
| d0tk0m | will 8.04 have latest nvidia drivers? | 09:23 |
|---|
| stefano_ | Viktorious, it will come out in april (04) 2008 (8), and it will rock :> | 09:23 |
|---|
| stefano_ | yes | 09:23 |
|---|
| stefano_ | almost | 09:23 |
|---|
| Viktorious | what will be so differnet about 8.04 | 09:23 |

| aing | ? | 09:23 |
|---|
| aing | maneh didieu jir? | 09:24 |

| stefano_ | Viktorious, it will have all the latest version of all the upstream software, better hardware support, basically everything will be even better. and it will include firefox 3 by default | 09:24 |
|---|
| === \tsunade is now known as ita |
| souper | well i've found people saying that when gparted resized the ntfs partition it corrupted it because of the way vista stores data | 09:24 |
|---|
| souper | but i resized in vista first and i still have the problem | 09:24 |
|---|
| stefano_ | souper, that sounds reasonable | 09:25 |
|---|
| Linuxchix0r | souper it might be messed up | 09:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | resizing a partition is always dangerous | 09:25 |
|---|
| ipe64 | stefano_: is that hardy heron | 09:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | especially with vista | 09:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | ipe64, yes | 09:25 |
|---|
| Viktorious | ok kool but i wanna use firefox 3 now lol the beta 4 i used it on windows and luve it | 09:25 |
|---|
| saqimtiaz | souper, stefano_ thing is that my partition was working in both Vista and Ubuntu and stopped without fiddling with the partitions | 09:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | saqimtiaz, vista could have messed it up | 09:25 |
|---|
| souper | i've also read something about vista not liking being loaded by grub and that if you install the bootloader from the windows recovery environment it may work | 09:25 |
|---|
| stefano_ | vista tends to mess things up | 09:26 |

|---|
| saqimtiaz | I've got another bizzare question. I was messing around with Virtualbox and on restarting X got a HAL failure. When I rebooted, the laptops LCD would not switch on though the external monitor works. Now I know that sounds like a hardware problem but the timing is very suspicious. Any ideas? | 09:29 |
|---|
| stefano_ | saqimtiaz, try to run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" it may help | 09:29 |
|---|
| souper | try the function key and f5 | 09:29 |
|---|
| stefano_ | saqimtiaz, do you have intel graphics? | 09:30 |

|---|
| saqimtiaz | stefano_: nvidia | 09:30 |
|---|
| stefano_ | mh | 09:30 |
|---|
| saqimtiaz | thing is the lcd won't turn on even for a second, not even to display the bios | 09:30 |
|---|
| stefano_ | sounds tricky | 09:30 |
|---|
| stefano_ | oh that does sound like a hardware problem indeed | 09:30 |
|---|
| saqimtiaz | so.... not sure how it could be Ubuntu related.. but figured I would ask because of the timing | 09:30 |
|---|
| souper | er not f5 | 09:31 |

| saqimtiaz | stefano_: one more question if I may | 09:31 |

|---|
| saqimtiaz | I'm trying to boot a live cd now, since I've royally broken my Ubuntu install. But right when it should start X the screen goes blank.

| Viktorious | i havt the firefox tar.bz2 on my desktop how do i nistall it | 09:34 |
|---|
| stefano_ | tekknokrat, when you log in, there are two buttons, one is called session and the other one should be language or something like that, there you can select the language you want that session to be in, it also asks you if you want to make that language default. if your language doesnt apear in that list, you need to install the corresponding packages | 09:34 |
|---|
| souper | you didn't do it via apt-get? | 09:34 |
|---|
| stefano_ | Viktorious, don't use the tar.gz it tends to mess things up | 09:34 |
|---|
| Viktorious | thats how it told me to do it coz i did the package one and said updates done and nuting | 09:35 |
|---|
| stefano_ | Viktorious, if you installed it from synaptic, it should be in your menu (as a seperate entry) - it doesnt upgrade your firefox 2 but installed ff3 aditionally | 09:35 |

| techt0nix | ere4si, yes but i can only do that on my onboard video card | 09:48 |

| tekknokrat | stefano_: my locale only looks LANG=de_DE | 09:48 |

|---|
| stefano_ | tekknokrat, 8859 is not exactly up to date | 09:51 |
|---|

| ere4si | techt0nix, shouldn't be if it was disabled in the bios and you dpkg'd the xserver - asuming that was the correct driver | 10:18 |
|---|

| techt0nix | ere4si, right im asuming its the wrong driver | 10:18 |

| ere4si | techt0nix, if you dpkg the xserver it will tell you the driver it is using - so blacklist that one if you don't want it used | 10:19 |
|---|
| techt0nix | X server driver just says Intel | 10:20 |

| yjyjifsdf | bye | 10:21 |

| techt0nix | so just blacklist intel? | 10:21 |

| ere4si | techt0nix, then the line blacklist intel goes in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 10:21 |

| Joelio | hey guys, getting a 403 Forbidden from archive.ubuntu.com when trying to do an upgrade (heron) | 10:33 |
|---|
| Joelio | any info? | 10:34 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | i get error because my program does write or read from /tmp dir.? | 10:34 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | how can i fix this? | 10:34 |
|---|
| zod_ | when is the new ubuntu verson released? | 10:34 |
|---|
| dgjones | zod_, Its due towards the end of April | 10:34 |
|---|
| bazhang | next month zod_ discussion in #ubuntu+1 | 10:34 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | should i use chmod 777 /tmp???? | 10:35 |
|---|
| dneary | ichat: I am not sure that the installer is accessible right now - but I may be behind the times. | 10:35 |
|---|
| ks3 | micadeyeye: /tmp should have 1777 | 10:35 |
|---|
| zod_ | is it stable the new verson, or wait some days before install? | 10:35 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | but i don't wanna screw things up | 10:35 |
|---|
| Polishpaul | hey fellas, i got my laptop setup with ubuntu, when i plug in my headphones, the sound does not come through - any thoughts? | 10:35 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | ks3 so i should use chmod 1777 /tmp??? | 10:35 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | ks3: so i should use chmod 1777 /tmp??? | 10:36 |
|---|
| dgjones | Joelio, Could be that the repo is down at the minute, I'd suggest asking in #ubuntu+1 with you querying about the Alpha version of Hardy | 10:36 |
|---|
| geirha | micadeyeye: that is correct | 10:36 |
|---|
| zod_ | how to get all hardware devices drivers in ubuntu installed? | 10:36 |
|---|
| ichat | dgjones: - ty for the link, - ill start reading it, - - i have lots of people that are blind (or near to it), and who want to explore linux too, yet its rather hard - to support it as im (sadly to say) not a real guru (yet), | 10:37 |
|---|
| ks3 | micadeyeye: If it doesn't have that mode already, yes. If you do 'ls -dl /tmp', it should show as drwxrwxrwt | 10:37 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | thnaks, that reminds me, each time i hibernate my IBM R52 laptop AND RELOAD, I lose sound | 10:37 |
|---|
| geirha | zod_: 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon was realeased 2007, month 10. 8.04 Hardy Heron will be released 2008, month 04 | 10:37 |
|---|
| Joelio | dgjones: I've just changed my sources to gb.archive.. (it was archive..). Working now.. presume they'll fix upstream | 10:37 |
|---|
| zod_ | ah i see | 10:37 |
|---|
| dgjones | ichat, you're welcome, there are some other text to speech app's I've heard mention of, but I can't rememeber what they were called, somebody else may know the answer though | 10:38 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | why? | 10:38 |
|---|
| ProbeDot | i need to connect to it via internet, i have 50 xp stations connected to a 2003 server using roaming profiles (desktop,my documents,registery,etc are stored on the server), the internet gateway is the centos server, so i have a local network with local ip's and the internet network with the internet ip, | 10:41 |
|---|
| ProbeDot | the problem is that i need a laptop using a internet conection to connect to the local area network via internet, i need all windows networking features available, somehow, that laptop must endup connected to the lan with a lan ip | 10:41 |
|---|
| geirha | micadeyeye: the sound drivers probably can't handle the suspend. It's usually fixed by telling acpi to unload the module before suspending, and reload it after the system is back | 10:41 |
|---|
| geirha | micadeyeye: you do this by editing /etc/default/acpi-support, and add the sound driver module to the MODULES="" variable | 10:42 |
|---|
| ere4si | ProbeDot, a windows server question here? | 10:44 |
|---|
| geirha | ProbeDot: sounds like you should read up on VPN | 10:44 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | ks3: can i use chmod 1777 /tmp/*?? cause i want all files to have xrw | 10:46 |
|---|
| zod_ | what program do i use/ get to detect and fix bugs in ubuntu? | 10:46 |
|---|
| ProbeDot | geirha i need to connect a laptop in austria to a local area network in france | 10:46 |
|---|
| ProbeDot | so that the laptop access al network resources of the lan in france, i want the laptop to act as a workstation in the lan, both laptop and lan have internet access, lan has one public ip, laptop same | 10:46 |
|---|
| Joelio | ouch, maybe I shouldn't have done an upgrade... glibc is dead :'( - apt's now broken | 10:47 |
|---|
| bazhang | Joelio: in Hardy? | 10:47 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | can i use chmod 1777 /tmp/*?? cause i want all files to have xrw | 10:47 |
|---|
| Joelio | yea | 10:47 |
|---|
| geirha | ProbeDot: that's what VPN does. | 10:47 |
|---|
| bazhang | #ubuntu+1 for the workaround Joelio | 10:47 |
|---|
| Joelio | any ideas what I can do.. only the running processes are working.. | 10:47 |
|---|
| micadeyeye | can i use chmod 1777 /tmp/*?? cause i want all files to have xrw | 10:48 |
|---|
| ProbeDot | geirha i don't want to move the entire existing lan to vpn, that will take weeks | 10:48 |
|---|
