[00:00] the second one on building tag database [00:00] is that normal? first time I see it is with 8.04 [00:01] nickrud: Hmm, it's called dnsmasq [00:01] RyanPrior, that's an app that provides a nat for a local network [00:01] nickrud: I don't remember installing it - what might be running it? [00:02] how do i uninstall hellanzb?

[00:03] jthacker, I think you're right, I'm mixing it up with ipmasq (usually used together, or conflicting?) been a while since I used it [00:04] Enul3243, you should be able to simply drag it onto the window that opens from system->prefs->appearance, then hit the customize button on the themes tab to change it [00:04] genii: I have no ideas, what about You? [00:05] [00:05] SnakeAr2: Yes, I did, eg: SnakeArt: The current idea I'm having is to make a symlink of /dev/input/tablet to /dev/bus/usb/001/007 since this is the actual physical location it's at. If this seems to work we can make a new udev rule for it in the symlinks section (hopefully) [00:05] how can i setup mysql5 to work with lightpd and install phpmyadmin? [00:05] How can I play a DVD with 5.1 surround? [00:07] genii: You're great. Thanx. I try it now, so disconnecting and see You after a while...

[00:36] BarryToeman: alright..thanks :-) [00:36] CapaH: Assuming youre not on LVM this is. Since, on LVM it's super easy. But, you'll need to boot to a liveCD and then use Gparted (thats easiest, you could use others) [00:37] hey guys, is there any other sort of dock appart from awn? because i only want 2 launch programs from it, no minimise them into it [00:37] witakr, can you get the gpg file from the website?, or skip that step?

Ive gone into the BIOS and told the computer to boot from the cd, but it insists on starting up in windows.

[01:07] theunixgeek, there is no such thing as windows emulator (WINE=wine is not an emulator) [01:07] or virtualbox [01:07] theunixgeek, you can use an x86 emulator and install windows, or emulate the windows api with wine [01:07] Daisuke_Ido: Wine doesn't support the software I want to run [01:07] witakr: you have libdvdread and libdvdcss installed?

[01:10] Starnestommy: here is the correct error: sh: Can't open /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh [01:10] kristofernathan: now you may need to re-config the xorg.conf [01:10] Auctionedllama, sudo modprobe fglrx or something like that?

[01:11] Auctionedllama, it is a X1600 right? [01:11] x1650 [01:11] dmsuperman, for that matter, KDE browsers run in GNOME too... [01:11] chuy_max- and yes, is studio like feisty or gutsy?

[01:11] Auctionedllama, dunno, that depends on which one you installed [01:11] dmsuperman: anyway, try epiphany-browser, midori or kazehakase, i'd say [01:12] Auctionedllama, remember if it is 7.04 or 7.10? [01:12] g3nocide`: just solved that 5 mins ago get wicd [01:12] chuy_max- I installed studip [01:12] LjL, oh, alright. I thought it mattered [01:12] g3nocide`: forget network manager [01:12] So, anyone have experience with Wallpapoz? [01:12] chuy_max- aww crap.. lemme check [01:12] hyperstream: available via synaptic ? [01:12] dmsuperman: it matters, in that installing a KDE browser will result in getting a ton of KDE libraries installed, too. [01:12] Art: using compiz?

[01:23] bazhang: computer [01:23] hellmitre, vlc is the shizzle.. thanks [01:23] hyperstream: you need to tab over the SHMConfig and following parts so it fits in line with the other stuff [01:23] adam_: you're welcome [01:24] mc-george: what chipset on that wifi card [01:24] hellmitre: brb giving that a shot- ctrl alt backspace, or full reboot?

[01:24] does anyone know if ubuntu install supports dual monitor and external monitors? [01:24] errdil, ctrl+alt+backspace - hyperstream [01:25] i remember there was a file you could edit to configure custom windows at predefined positions/sizes to start once you start X, anyone can point me to the right direction? (using xfce if that matters) [01:25] yeah, you can turn it up with the little half-orange (in human theme) bar [01:25] that's the volume [01:25] you can actually get it louder than is probably good for your speakers at full volumes [01:25] mc-george: that would be the brand and model; we need the actual chipset such as broadcom etc what does lspci say about that card? just the one line not all of lspci thanks [01:25] I don't suppose anyone here has experience with communicating with GSM phones through a serial port, eh? [01:26] hellmitre, its really quiet on my lappy [01:26] bazhang: I can't find it [01:26] hey. can someone tell me the biggest changes from 7.10 to .04? [01:26] Does Gutsy have any problems recognizing auxillary batteries? I'm using a Dell Latitude D630 (atg), and I don't think that Ubuntu is accessing my aux battery [01:26] tds5016: there are plenty of links on the web for that [01:27] bazhang, I've been looking, and haven't seen a changelog.

I am having to reinstall Windows.... and well I have a certain issue, I dual-boot with Ubuntu, so it will probably destroy GRUB or something along the lines of that.... so would I just have to find a way to reinstall GRUB afterwards or what [01:29] hyperstream: i grabbed wicd via synaptic, i try to /etc/init.d/wicd start and it doesnt stay running, any ideas? [01:29] or would I have to reinstall Ubuntu [01:30] bazhang: any idea? [01:30] hyperstream, you can do this for ease. sudo aptitude install pastebinit; cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit # and give us the link it returns [01:30] Condoulo: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows [01:30] g3nocide`: i just followed the site, i grabbed the package, and went to Apps Internet Wicd set it up and rebooted to test, worked fine here [01:30] unop: oooo very nice [01:31] that wont run for me when i click that menu item [01:31] looking now mc-george [01:31] i get nada [01:31] bazhang: thanks [01:31] how can i stop my wireless from crashing on me after an hour or so? i have had to reset three times tonight already because my wireless connection crashes, i have looked everywhere i can think of on the Ubuntu wiki and nothing remotley close to my problem is on there [01:31] firefox 3 still gonna be the default? [01:31] yes tds5016 [01:32] Dephenom-> your wireless card is? which chip does it uses? [01:32] Dephenom: is it a bcm43xx?

[01:33] unop: ill upload it now [01:33] Dephenom-> does the wireless card have a sleep mode feature? ie when not in use for so many minutes, it hibernates? === Tuv0k is now known as darthanubis [01:33] sivik will firefox 3 even be stable by that point? [01:34] amenado, not a clue its bundled with the sono viao, all i know is it shuts down when my screensaver is on and nothing but a reboot of the entire laptop will bring it back [01:34] bazhang: just those 2 [01:35] hi guyes [01:35] guys [01:35] hi [01:35] one questo [01:35] SeaPhor, WEP [01:35] does system 76 fixes work in 64 but version?

[01:36] Dephenom: what brand is it, have you checked bios settings?, HP has many settings in bios for wlan/wwan/lan [01:36] hp is probably a broadcom [01:36] I have a general question about performance of Ubuntu. I have installed Ubuntu since 2 years now. I have never got good performace from Ubuntu (or any Linux). Its always been little slugish. [01:36] is it just my computer....? [01:36] Sivik: built into laptop i believe [01:36] harry: yes [01:37] hyperstream: what does lspci tell you? [01:37] I have hp dv5000 with ati radean 200m [01:37] SeaPhor, its a Sony Viao, ill check the bios on next reboot [01:37] graphics card.. [01:37] Sivik: gets errors like: Wlan0: RX non-wep frame, but expected encryption [01:37] harry000, linux can even run on an ipod [01:37] harry000, don't ever expect 3d drivers for that card [01:37] harry000, so your issue may be graphical desktop [01:37] i think, it will be because of driver issue with graphics card [01:37] hyperstream, what wireless card? [01:37] when i go to places then my home folder or Desktop folder it uses Thunar. Open from anywhere else it uses nautilus. where is that setting? [01:37] harry000: that is a really old video card [01:37] harry000: I have 3x performance on my Ubuntu partition, I hate booting into windows now [01:37] Sivik: RaLink RT2500 802.11g cardbud/minipci (rev 01) [01:37] okay [01:38] hmmm... [01:38] Sivik: im thinking of using ndiswrapper:/ [01:38] hyperstream, you probably have to use ndiswrapper for that [01:38] How can I get my soundblaster audigy to play in 5.1? [01:38] Hello [01:38] Sivik: it works every now and then [01:38] hyperstream, i'm trying to get my desktop's pci ralink to work and the only way it will is via ndiswrapper [01:38] so, it is defintely the graphics card... [01:38] Sivik: i had this working using wext [01:38] harry000: you have to set xorg.conf to vesa to get in the first time [01:38] hyperstream, i have never used that [01:39] Dephenom-> yeah thats the weak point right now of ubuntu, hibernation...so try not to get it into screensaver mode.. [01:39] Sivik: where do i locate the driver in the windows folder? [01:39] Was wondering if someone could tell me what is the best Torrent program to use......that has the feel of uTorrnet...Im using kTorrent but it works badly...... [01:39] unop: sorry mate trying to get the laptop back online [01:39] AlabamaHit, best is in the eyes of the person, just look for one and try it [01:39] AlabamaHit: Transmission [01:39] bazhang: you still there? [01:39] no, ubuntu 7.10 automatically installs the drivers (restricted one).. [01:40] amenado, kinda hard when you leave it on all the time ;) but ill check the bios [01:40] i never had isssue with instalation or drivers.. its is just the sluggish performace.. [01:40] can someone tell me if a version of java ships with ubuntu 8.04 [01:40] and if so, whcih? [01:40] i think the card is not very well supported... [01:40] harry000, thats because its a ati and ati and linux don't work well together [01:40] also.. i do get 3d acceleration too.... with relativerly okayish performace... [01:40] harry000: if this isnt fast enough you have some problems: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=741631 === jd_ is now known as linuxpoet [01:41] How hard is it to upgrade to Hardy when it is released? [01:42] mc-george: you still there? that card requires the firmware to be loaded in order for the card to be recognized before ndiswrapper can do its work; here is a link how to do that---> http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?p=2863896#post2863896 [01:42] twistage just use the upgrade manager. its easy. if you are using envy for graphics drivers, you have to uninstall them first [01:42] thanks guys... [01:42] With Wine do the programs run as good (same) as if they where in Windows? [01:42] bazhang: thanks [01:42] AlabamaHit: Not really [01:43] what is ubuntu Terminal Emulator? saw it as a choice in prefered apps [01:43] AlabamaHit: Its hit and miss, some work really well, while others dont [01:43] i will still stick with ubuntu... because... it is getting so good with every release... [01:43] AlabamaHit many programs run as fast as on windows in most aspects. have you tried "Transmission" (bittorrent) [01:43] Stroganoff: nope fixing to try it now :) [01:44] How do I rebuild the xorg.conf that was generated during installation? [01:44] AlabamaHit: Wine is not an emulator. It provides the libraries that windows program needs to run. [01:44] aubrac: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [01:45] so, in most cases, the perormance will be as good as running windows.... [01:45] AlabamaHit: see this: http://wiki.winehq.org/BenchMark-0.9.5 [01:45] Is there usually a lot of trouble with things breaking upon new distro releases? [01:46] twistage: you have a support question or just want to chat [01:46] bazhang: Im just curious [01:46] twistage usually there's not much trouble [01:46] hiya everyone [01:46] No, that's what I said. [01:46] hey I have a question === twistage is now known as Twistage [01:47] is there a 64 bit for intel processors regular server ubuntu version?

That worked once I unplugged my second monitor and rebooted. Otherwise it just asked questions about my keyboard and wrote an nearly empty file. [01:48] Jackx: yes sure [01:48] hmm [01:48] Also how can i mirror my linux? i have it set up great and dont want to lose this is this possibel? i tried Remaster but it failed redicoulsly...v7.10 im using [01:48] KJulian: Press Alt+F4 [01:48] Anyone ever have problems with Gnome not loading correctly upon boot? It seems like once every 10 boots Gnome freaks out and doesn't load my settings [01:48] because whenever I download the intel + amd 64 bit version [01:48] i get the file [01:48] amd64 [01:48] and for some reason [01:48] Jackx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:48] whenever I try to load it [01:48] x86_64 is the one you want Jackx [01:49] Twistage: yeah I have that problem now and then [01:49] ok. [01:49] could you maybe point me at a link please? [01:49] i have been looking for it for a while now [01:49] AlabamaHit: you want to clone it? to have it be ready to copy to another box; what is your goal in this could you clarify please [01:50] bazhang, now the light on the card goes on, but I tried with just wireless and it doesn't work [01:50] how long does it usually take to compile a kernel?

[01:50] Ki11ab33z: azureus [01:51] azureus I think kinda loads slow [01:51] bazhang, I did everything in the guide you linked me to [01:51] bazhang: I want to be able to if(when) I crash this install to be able to reinstall the same way it is now with the updates and programs...and look (theme layout) if possible. [01:51] tailsfan: depends on your system :) and whats 2-3 seoncds? [01:51] tailsfan, hmm,i would say it is not fast,may take an hour or so [01:51] kill [01:51] AlabamaHit: best bet would be to have a seperate /home partition then [01:51] OK [01:51] mistell [01:52] because I have to make my own custom kernel for thsi tutorial I'm following [01:52] Ki11ab33z: i like ktorrent [01:52] Anyone know a solution to broken hibernation/suspend modes.

[01:57] Dephenom, I've never used an excel spreadsheet. Sorry.

[01:59] AlabamaHit: do a google with "ubuntu seperate home partition" in the search [01:59] ok [01:59] computermesh, there should be a button on the toolbar with "a -> z" or "z -> a" highlight the data you want sorted and click one of them [01:59] Dephenom, thank you. I will take a peek and see if I can find it.

Appreciate your help. [02:00] computermesh, no probs [02:01] hyperstream, all i can think of is the touchpad isnt a synaptic touchpad - what does lspci/lshw say about this device?

[02:02] hi, is it possible to instruct grub to boot automatically to a specified kernel just once?, that's so I can make a script that reads something like: restart to windows, restart to kernel 2.6, etc. [02:02] shangwu hao [02:03] you mean something like OpenSUSE? [02:03] AlabamaHit: as do we all; but it needs to be on a seperate partition to be safe from reformatting; bit of a difference there [02:03] !cn | hwy [02:03] hwy: For Ubuntu help in Chinese 您可以访问中文频道： #ubuntu-cn 或者 #ubuntu-tw 或者 #ubuntu-hk [02:04] chuy_max: dunno if that is possible in grub, but if you are booting linux first, you could write a script that modifies your menu.lst file upon boot [02:04] unop: let me upload [02:04] bazhang: you mean on a complete different hard drive?

[02:06] unop: nothing at all to indicate a touchpad [02:07] Hi I just made a presentation in open office and used custom fonts in it. Is there a way to somehow make the fonts work on a windows computer? [02:07] inxane, if you boot windows, for instance, that will not work just once, since windows will not modify menu.lst [02:07] ion what does corel draw linux alternative return for you in a popular search engine of your choice?

[02:17] AutoMatriX: for VoIP calls? [02:18] AutoMatriX: also, the modem would have to have some type of tcpdump for that to work [02:18] inxane, let's say that I want an automatic dump of my incoming voip calls in an asii file [02:18] Can anyone give me some help on the trackerd daemon? Specifically, why is it using 3.1 gigs of ram? [02:19] AutoMatriX: No,the closest you can get without password insertion is just something like: telnet -l username -p port IP/Name and then hope you get a prompt for pasword [02:19] inxane, it can be done by hand, but I always have to enter username and pwd, [02:19] AutoMatriX: are you using ekiga or something?

[02:33] I followed the main tut, which didn't work, which lead a secondary, and a third, and then back to the second one and after 2 hours everything, I got no where [02:33] No.. ther eis [02:33] Auctionedllama, ??? [02:33] Also.. in the midst of everything I can't access my restricted driver thing now [02:34] it says I'm missing a module [02:34] Auctionedllama, lovely, how old is this installation of ubuntu ? [02:34] 7.10 studio [02:34] 7.10 Ubuntu studio [02:34] Auctionedllama, how long ago did you install it ? [02:34] mmh [02:34] 2 days ago [02:35] hi [02:35] Auctionedllama, clean install it , it will take you 30 min and then you can start with a clean slate to install the resteicted drvier and get the proper 3d support [02:35] mmh [02:35] format the whole thing? [02:36] not sure if this is an ubuntu or a gnome question, but how do i make my fonts not look like crap? [02:36] Oh man, it took forever to get the screen even working, but ok [02:36] Auctionedllama, put your /home folder on a seperate partiton, that way you won'T need to format the whole thing, well actualy the first time around you'll need to but from now on you won'T need to [02:36] Ok, can you give me the link to the tut to start out with [02:36] so just format my partition? [02:36] b1n0ry: that's not really a valid question to begin with... "look like crap" is pretty subjective, and i have no idea what you'd mean. [02:36] and save the home folder? [02:36] why would my shell be interpreting (which is to say, sending to perl) the single quote (') character as \xE2 instead of \x27 ? [02:37] Auctionedllama, does the live cd work for you ? [02:37] yes [02:37] or [02:37] they seem to be a bit fuzzy, maybe "bulky" is a better word, and many websites look like i'm trying to read them through one of those stupid magnifier lens things... almost like the DLP "rainbow effect" [02:37] not sure if its live [02:37] what is a good iso mounter for ubuntu [02:37] ?

[02:39] LjL: back, sorry, thanks ;D [02:40] ok, my linux partition is already 9 gigs [02:40] I can't make it any smaller [02:40] Also, there is nothing worth keeping in home [02:40] ok is there an easier noob iso mounter? [02:40] I'll just format my whole partition, and get rid of it [02:40] Auctionedllama then just format [02:40] and start over [02:40] i just tried the -o loop terminal thing and it didnt work [02:40] LjL, rigth click desktopl , chagne wall paper , font tab , for the hinting bit [02:40] ok, gonna format everything I guess..

[02:42] Auctionedllama, then come back here [02:42] Hi, I'm thinking of learning some type of C to work more on linux apps. Should I learn C, C#, or C++ or does it even matter? [02:42] LjL i'm tempted to try kde. everything i'm reading says gnome uses gtk+ to render fonts, which generally look like crap. not sure, i guess pro font designers don't like gtk+ or something. [02:42] iso mounter with a GUI? [02:42] so format the restricted driver? I am very confused ATM D; [02:42] Acoustyk, google cdemu [02:43] b1n0ry, that makes no sense, freetype is used by both gnome and kde. [02:43] kde, on the other hand, uses qt for rendering which i've been told is 'slightly' better [02:43] I just installed Ubuntu on a laptop [02:43] thanks i bunch [02:43] the laptop has 2 wifi cards.. the internal one and the PCMCIA one [02:43] Auctionedllama, start by clean installing ubuntu, then come back here, and we'll walk you through the rest , do not install anything extra until you'Ve come back [02:43] ok [02:43] bbl [02:43] the PCMCIA one is a SMC card that I have gotten working with an atheros driver before but ubuntu keeps defaulting to the internal wifi card and its causing issues [02:43] dont leave pelo [02:44] Pelo: can I pm you?

[02:46] NetEcho_, open a terminal , type lsmod locate the module for your internal wifi in there, make a note of it , then type sudo modprobe -r modulename that will remove it from the list [02:46] ty LjL [02:46] will it remove it permanently? === Adlai_ is now known as Adlai [02:46] Pelo: "disable multible logins for a single user"?

[02:59] Pelo: it was wlan0 [02:59] :D: [02:59] found it [02:59] LjL i found the hinting thing too [02:59] Pelo, haha [02:59] I have a canon mx700 printer/scanner/fax hooked up on my network but i cannot get ubuntu to connect to it. [02:59] No, Pelo, it worked with a clean install, no problems. [02:59] dmsuperman, if you mean "Linux" in general, then exclude any mouse input emulation for a start, because that's clearly impossible, given how any different GUI will use mouse input differently. as for the rest... i think you'll have a hard time writing a keystroke catcher that works universally, with or without X. [02:59] so no one can help me with my wireless issue, or my printer issue,,, how about this, can anyone tell me how to set up my Ubuntu 7.10 machine to be a FTP server as well, just for me and a few friends? [02:59] dmsuperman: closest might be the "lkl" package === M_Roma is now known as Mroma [03:00] on my laptop the screen is all covered properly with the background but the not the taskbar, it's sized as if i had no widescreen [03:00] edaniel, hmm, when you say jump to the top, can you be a little more detailed ? [03:00] i figured i might tell you guys that [03:00] sjovan: ty that worked :) [03:00] !ftp | SeaPhor [03:00] SeaPhor: FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd [03:00] LjL, I wasn't planning on adding mouse support, it isn't in autohotkey and that's what i'm pretty much basing this on [03:00] thats clients,,,??? [03:00] psirly, try restarting x it might reset it , crtl alt backspace [03:01] dmsuperman: i'm still unsure how you'd do the keylogging [03:01] SeaPhor: read the entire line please [03:01] gaspipe1: oh shit... nvm. that's a really old version! i'll finde you a tut on how to get the new version. just rememberd it. btw ---> sudo apt-get autoremove wine --purge <--- will remove it === dusty- is now known as dusty [03:01] it does that from start up [03:01] LjL, the other app I was talking about that had the limited support did basically the same thing, only with python, so I'll see if I can use that source from him [03:01] even live cd too i believe [03:01] SeaPhor: !FTPd the d is for deamon ( server ) [03:01] i think it's a known issue [03:01] i just oculdn't find it in the bug database [03:02] psirly, oh, hold on, type gconf-editor, goto /apps/panel, look under general I think I beleive I've seen a windescreen option there [03:02] psirly, no garanties [03:02] LjL, but his used a seperate C or C++ file that caught all the keys, and I tried it out it works perfectly [03:02] IdleOne: i have tried that and cant make it work, i am still a n00b BTW [03:02] sjovan: dam u'r good the people in #winehq just said that [03:02] Sure, it will skip up, I would guess about 50 pixels at a time intermittently, usually during a page load, or file transfer. It moves left by 4-5 pixels as well. It will repeat this until it gets to the top of the screen, and eventually the top left corner. The more stuff happening, the faster it goes. Like loading the Google home page makes it hit the top really fast. Copying a file will make it jump once, but only sometimes. [03:02] gaspipe1: here is the instructions... http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb [03:02] I accidentally set a password for my root account (used to servers), before discovering the ways of sudo on Ubuntu. [03:02] How do I have it back to how it was? [03:03] hello [03:03] dmsuperman: that's interesting, the only keylogger that's in the repositories (lkl) i haven't even been able to use. [03:03] please help me out [03:03] yea its most definatly running the AR2413 802.11bg NIC when I have a SMC 802.11 EzConnect G SMCWCB-G card [03:03] both of them run on the Atheros Driver [03:03] edaniel, you don'T mean it move in a choppy fashion, it jsut moves on it's own without you touching it ? [03:03] sjovan: ty again [03:03] Ntemis, we can'T we don'T knwo the problem you are having [03:03] LjL, the source wasn't in the repository, it was pretty much just a snippet that somebody else wrote for him [03:03] gaspipe1: np :) [03:03] Pelo: correct, it moves on it's own [03:04] i have removed the nvidia drivers and restarted the pc using the onboard gfx card via unichrome pro [03:04] no go [03:04] edaniel, before it started misbehaving , did you do an update or someting ? [03:04] Pelo: I've still had no joy with my problem. Got a thread here now, I'm hoping someone knows. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=757234 [03:04] system is on command line [03:04] no desktop [03:04] SeaPhor: try this http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-vsftpd-ftp-service-server/ btw google is your best friend :) [03:04] so ijust came to bitch about the widescreen not detecting properly on my intel965 and how my rt2570 isn't supported by default through usb [03:05] i tried edit the etc/x11/xorg.cong but complains no x gedit btw [03:05] Anybody had any experience with gnucash online banking? [03:05] LjL, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=675751 [03:05] psirly: bitching is done in #ubuntu-offtopic [03:05] LjL, that's his [03:05] gaspipe1: after you have followed the instructions, then you can do ---> sudo apt-get install wine <--- :) remember to do sudo apt-get autoremove wine --purge <--- first (just to be shure) [03:05] lol [03:05] Ntemis, put the nvidia card back in , then from the command line , type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , select the vesa driver when askied, and leave the rest on default unless you absolutely know better, then come back here [03:05] Pelo: I usually update whenever the icon shows up. This may have happened after the last one, but I don't remember what that was. I did install a program from the repos, but I have removed that trying to fix this. [03:05] later guys [03:05] IdleOne: yeah i know, right next to the ubuntu forums :-)) [03:05] Either that or I'll have to learn Python...it shouldn't be too hard once you know one scripting language [03:05] i dont have the nvidia card. it was sold [03:05] LjL, and just extend his [03:05] SeaPhor: yup and of course #ubuntu :) [03:05] edaniel, hmm, I have no idea, I thought I might but I don'T , try searching in the forum there might be an answer in there www.ubuntuforums.org [03:06] pelo what is next [03:06] Ntemis, , same procedure but just let it scan for a driver automaticaly first [03:06] Pelo: yeah, i looked there, not a lot of info, maybe I'll post. Can you tell me how I check what the last update was? [03:06] What's the easiest and lightest software I can use to set up a one-page, internal web server on my router? [03:06] How can I get libssl0.9.7 on Ubuntu gutsy? The packages on http://deb.wapper.ru/nginx/ depend on it. [03:06] thttpd [03:07] edaniel, .... /var/log/dpkg.log might five you some info [03:07] How can I install the java runtime environment? [03:07] Cpudan80: www.sun.com [03:07] The package offered up by ubuntu is the wrong version [03:07] Nemesis: thttpd [03:07] Nemesis: nginx is really good [03:07] Orbixx_, no [03:07] where is mysql installed? [03:07] so when my system is at the bash because it cannot boot i write sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? [03:07] Pelo: thank you very much for your help! [03:07] Cpudan80, enable the estra repos and install it from synaptic [03:07] Thanks guys [03:07] Nemesis: If its literally one page, you can get by without a proper webserver, just with a simple script. But that's certainly not easiest. [03:07] decay: the database is /var/lib/mysql [03:07] some command is /usr/ [03:07] Pelo: Estra? [03:07] /usr/bin [03:08] Cpudan80, menu > system > admin > software sources , check all the boxes on the 1st and 3rd tab , then reload [03:08] IdleOne: OK i've installed a bunch of other stuff trying to get a ftp server working,,, this one looks promising,,, how do i get rid of the others? [03:08] start the mysql: use /etc/init.d/mysql start [03:08] branstrom: install libssl-dev or libssl0.9.8 [03:08] so when my system is at the bash because it cannot boot i write sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ? [03:08] Flannel: Really? You think it would just be easiest to do a server, because it literally is one page, hah. [03:08] dmsuperman: hah, uses (or at least used at the time of the first posting) xmacro... [03:08] Pelo: Right - but what is the package? [03:08] and this will solve my problems? [03:08] Cpudan80, then open menu > system > admin > synaptic pacakge manager, search for java, find sun-java6-jre , -bin , -plugin [03:08] IdleOne: the packages seem to demand exactly 0.9.7 though [03:09] SeaPhor: depending how you install the other apps. but leave them for now as they probably have similar dependencies and you can remove the other apps later [03:09] Pelo: I have all those [03:09] Pelo: they are pitifully old [03:09] Nemesis: I think it'd be easiest to just use a server, yes, since it'd be "install a package, put page in", but if I were to write one, I'd just have something that serves that text on port 80 regardless of what is asked for (well, that page + headers and such). It'll get the job done ;) But yeah, go with a real server. [03:09] anyone have any luck with haveing thier ubuntu look like leopard? or is this not the type of Q you ask in here? [03:09] branstrom: then have them update the packages [03:09] I don't think it does anymore [03:09] have to go [03:09] Cpudan80, 6 is the most recent [03:09] thanks for the help though [03:09] Anybody had any experience with gnucash online banking? I have it installed, and working, now I am starting to get an error message. [03:09] LjL, although I could be totally wrong :P [03:10] Pelo: somehow I've gotten an old version in there [03:10] cpotts454, you'd probably have to look for a gnucash channel [03:10] maybe I should uninstall it all? [03:10] Cpudan80, what version of ubuntu do you have ? [03:10] IdleOne: :/ mhm [03:10] Pelo: gutsy [03:10] Cpudan80, what do you mean by old ? [03:10] Pelo: The jdk versions and jre versions dont match [03:10] branstrom: try the -dev package it should work [03:10] one is 1.4 the other is 1.54 [03:10] finally got everything running smoothly. anyone have problems with the screen flickering in and out? i'm using a laptop with geforce go 7000 series [03:10] 1.5* [03:10] Cpudan80, I told you how to eanble the extra repos to get java 6 [03:11] * Pelo sighs deeply [03:11] Pelo: I have those enabled! [03:11] Torrents are going to drive me INsane [03:11] Cpudan80, then you should be able to get java 1.6 ffrom the backport repos [03:11] AlabamaHit, what's wrong ? [03:11] Cpudan80: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [03:11] Pelo: It says I have it [03:11] cant find a program that will let em be conncatible or let more than one action take place at a time [03:11] Cpudan80, then you have the most recent [03:11] one of the torrents Stalled. [03:11] Pelo: well clearly something is wrong [03:11] Pelo: the versions should match [03:11] AlabamaHit, deluge torent [03:12] Pelo: is that a program? [03:12] Cpudan80: What does: java -version report [03:12] Cpudan80, not you might be looking at package versions, those donT' hve to match, their just fixes and such [03:12] LjL: following the instructions on that site and with the package you recommended, my desktop looks PHENOMENALLY better! thanks! [03:12] well dmsuperman, as far as files placement goes, if your intention is to make it packageable, then the main executable should be in /usr/bin, any ancillary scripts the user is not supposed to ever call directly would probably be in /usr/lib, and likely you'd want the configuration file as ~/blah.conf. i don't think there's much else to it really [03:12] AlabamaHit, a torent program [03:12] IdleOne: The following packages have unmet dependencies: nginx: Depends: libssl0.9.7 which is a virtual package. [03:12] (and I do have libssl-dev) [03:12] Hello I have a sony vaoi fz160e and I wish to make my webcam work with ekiga [03:13] AlabamaHit: You can install Deluge from the Applications menu [03:13] Pelo: Let me remove all my java stuff and go from square 1 [03:13] LjL, cool, thanks :D [03:13] Cpudan80: hello, try sudo update-alternatives --config java [03:13] b1n0ry: as i said at the beginning... matter of tastes :) i really dislike that thin Tahoma [03:13] Somehow I have the 5.0 versions too [03:13] this should show the available versions and let you pick one [03:13] I figure if I clear it all out... that'll work better [03:13] Uhh, this is kind of a stupid question, but i just installed thttpd under terminal and I have no idea where the hell it went? [03:13] branstrom: what version of ubuntu? [03:14] Nemesis: dpkg -L thttpd [03:14] exactly, Nemesis [03:14] that's where it went [03:14] Pelo, ok...so after I search for java in the synaptic package manager I can install any of the packages it lists? It listed like 100+ packages [03:14] IdleOne: gutsy [03:14] Nemesis: (why do you care where it "went", anyway? it's a service, so you need to start it with something like « sudo invoke-rc.d thttpd start ») [03:14] kevarm, look for sun-java6-jre , -bin , -plugin , those are all the ones you need [03:14] Pelo: trying it now [03:14] Cpudan80: try update-alternatives as I told you. you can pick the right one there [03:14] thanks [03:14] fedito: alrgihty [03:15] branstrom: libssl0.9.7 is in fiesty repos http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libssl0.9.7 might help you or might not :/ [03:15] kevarm, That is because it lists ALL packages, not one's preselected for users, so sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin and if you want java dev sun-java6-dev [03:15] LjL: Didn't realize it was just a service. [03:15] I mean jdk* [03:15] Pelo: Do you know of a good program to make a backup of my INstallation? so i dont have to install updates and programs again and maybe keep the theme? [03:15] Nemesis, uh... it's a web server. what else can it be? [03:15] LjL: Well, I figured there might be some sort of interface? [03:15] IdleOne: is it safe to add the feisty universe repo in a gutsy install? [03:15] and is it the right way to solve this? :/ [03:16] branstrom: mmmm well it cant be good [03:16] AlabamaHit, just put your /home on a seperate partitions, all your settings and data are in there, and you do want to install the updates when they come but .. [03:16] !backup | AlabamaHit [03:16] AlabamaHit: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [03:16] branstrom: the right way would be for the package maintainer of what you are trying to install to update the package. [03:16] Pelo: The version on the compiler still doesnt match the jre version [03:16] Nemesis: no, a web server is a web server. UNIX programs tend to do one thing and just one. it's possible that there are interfaces (aka front-ends) for it around, although given it's not an extremely popular web server, i doubt it. if you need to configure it, you'll probably want to edit a file in /etc (do type « dpkg -L thttpd », anyway) [03:16] I should probably just get them to update the packages, but I'm too lazy. Lazy got me searching for a package in the first place, I don't want to build with each new version [03:17] sigh [03:17] LjL: Thanks [03:17] its probably a bad thing to have ubuntu hardy and debian lenny share the same home folder right? [03:17] Cpudan80, is java actualy giving you any problems or are you just looking to fix something that is already working ? [03:17] Pelo: oh nevermind - got it [03:17] Pelo: no it was actually not working [03:17] * Pelo goes back to doing his stuff [03:18] I had to do update the alternatives to java6 [03:18] so VERY sorry about that [03:18] branstrom: give it a shot but dont add the fiesty repo just download the package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/libssl0.9.7 and the sudo dpkg -i package-name.deb [03:18] I hit paste, and boom, lots of crap [03:18] IdleOne: ah that would work of course [03:19] I am trying to write a very simple little program that will tell me what an episode name is from a file name.... can someone tell me a good irc room that I can go to talk about stuff like that? I'm sure thats too specific for the main ubuntu room [03:19] malocite: #bash might be useful for that if you're writing in bash [03:20] malocite: what's the file name? [03:20] I'm having trouble with the filezilla client putting files in wrong folders randomly. What other gui ftp clients are there? [03:20] are the items in my "places" menu dynamically created? I'm seeing items in there that I didn't put there [03:20] could somebody please explain this line (output form a mount command) to me: /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro)? what's this about errors remounting the partition in read only [03:21] Randocal, removable drivers will appear in it when you put them in the cdrom or plug them in [03:21] malocite: depends on what you're writing it in [03:21] Randocal, and folders that you bookmark [03:21] branstrom: Hmm... I don't know :) maybe perl? [03:21] Hey ALL [03:21] How do I bookmark a folder? Maybe I've done this unintentionally [03:22] back again from a fresh install.. now I was promised I would be walked through installing my GFX card [03:22] Auctionedllama, welcome back [03:22] malocite: sounds simple enough for bash to do on its own [03:22] sjovan: i fallowed the link.. installed it and updated it [03:22] Auctionedllama: its not a radeon 9000 is it? :) [03:22] but I shouldn't talk, I'll leave it to the more experienced nerds :) [03:22] I don't have a lot of time pelo lets hurry :P and no its a ati x1650 [03:22] Auctionedllama, ok go into menu > system > admin > restricted drivers , see if there is anything there that wants to be installed [03:22] prince_jammys: Hmm... can I pm you for a moment?

Also there may be some entirely more appropriate way than using the commands you asked about. [03:40] PeerGuardian doesn't do anything, even on windows [03:40] Pelo pg blocks more then websites [03:41] And not only that, there's been several occasions where it's blocked legitimate websites from me [03:41] gogeta, you tell him how to then [03:41] can anyone tell me why flash video is very "framey" [03:41] Pelo, it's just an IP blacklist, essentially [03:41] Back [03:41] Pelo the linux version is in the fourms thers also one calleed moblock that uses iptables [03:41] The Kernel complied successfully [03:41] dmsuperman, I'm well aware of what it does [03:41] Pelo its great if your using frostwire [03:42] but now i hate that I can't use Wireless Multiboot [03:42] WOW holy crap.. the new firefox update fucked up so badly it made me use ie..

[03:43] AlabamaHit, netfilder and iptables are already installed btw [03:43] Pelo, well you said it blocks websites with viruses on them, and while it may block some with websites on them, it's just a giant database, so to say that it does so is sort of like false advertisement, because it doesn't do specifically that, it only just so happens that that's a side effect [03:44] people are too scared to trash it up, u have to make mistakes to learn, [03:44] Pelo, just the way you worded it made it seem like it's an antivirus, so i wasn't sure if you really knew [03:44] I was told that Firestart was keeping my torrent from being connectable...is that possible if its not really doing anything but making it easier to manage the firewall? i have not changed antying in it.

[03:53] I'm completely lost [03:53] harriseldon: It is testing. There is also a window that popped up from it which has a many color vertical rainbow-like design with a black/white thing in the right corner like you get on the tv [03:53] MikeyBoy: The short answer is yes. The long anwer is more complicated [03:54] AlabamaHit: what's up [03:54] darksidedelayue: that means it is not working yet. What do you see for plugin and device? [03:54] I'm trying to move my system from my old 80GB HD to a new 400GB HD. I partitioned the drive and marked the proper partition as bootable. But when I try to boot off it I get stuck at "Verifying DMI pool data". I tried turning off the CPU internal and external cache, but no luck. Can anyone suggest a solution? [03:54] MikeyBoy, yes you can [03:54] AlabamaHit: okay... anyways. like som other guy said. by default the firewall in ubuntu doesn't block any ports. if this is a torrent issue, then maby you need to portforward your router [03:54] AlabamaHit: azurus is supposedly quite good at getting through anyway [03:55] anyone?

[03:57] hi folks, anyone playing with beta of 8.04 ? :) I"m trying to get it working on a titanium / ppc. not an easy task. [03:57] decay, so something like that would do mysqladmin -u root password [03:58] Cyberai, did you install a bootloader on the drive after you partitioned it? [03:58] usser: since? i always connect with username 'root' and pw blank [03:58] since when* [03:59] decay, just a guess. i'm probably wrong [03:59] MikeyBoy, if you have empty (unallocated) space, you can just choose it during the partitioning step of the setup [03:59] How do I get nomad2 to recognize the mp3 player plugged into my USB?

Any help would be, well, appreciated [04:05] amenado, in network-admin i had set the domain to something then unset it, the hosts entry had 127.0.1.1 hampe-study.HAMPE which conflicted with the /etc/hostname of hampe-study [04:05] I cant get ANY torrent software to be connectible I know the for sure 100% the port is open on my router and I have Completelyl UNinstalled Firestarter [04:05] can anyon help me with that?

[04:07] AlabamaHit: sound like a portforwarding issue. anyways... firestarter is just a GUI. it doesn't close any ports as long as you don't tell it to do so [04:07] are you referring to restricted drivers manager? [04:07] darksidedelayue: it is an L -- think list modules or lsmod for short [04:07] Because if so, its the first thing I tried [04:07] Auctionedllama, restricted manager is a piece of software that helps u install necessary drivers [04:07] im not exactly using ubuntu though :P arch linux, any clue what i should sub it with? [04:07] gerrybar: sorray, is -R [04:07] sjovan: been told that just wantedto make sure it wasnt that :) [04:07] harriseldon: A list did pop up, what information do you want from it? sorry for the copy/paste [04:07] hi what what software do i need to use to apply theme to the panel? can emerald do this? [04:07] amenado, it resolves when the hostname is looked up... my computer hangs at various points when the entry is not correct and i'm not connected to the internet (it hangs for about 20 sec) [04:07] inutshell ok done, didn't report anything back though, and still unable to open the edit menu [04:08] is there something other special i should be typing in the Application section on Port Forwarding? Im useing Remote in it. [04:08] ;-) [04:08] darksidedelayue: that is why I had 2 commands. You can the use | "pipe" character to send the output of one command to another. It is usually above the enter key. try lsmod | grep -i r5u870 [04:09] AlabamaHit: yes, you have to specify what ports that need to be open and direct them to your local IP [04:09] Ashfire908-> i do not believe one must have a 127.0.1.1 entry in /etc/hosts [04:09] darksidedelayue: both commands should be entered on the same command line separated by the | character [04:10] Ashfire908-> as a test, remove or comment out that 127.0.1.1 entry in /etc/hosts [04:10] harriseldon: I copy/paste into the termianl the lsmod | grep -i r5u870 command, now another list is up [04:10] gerrybar: try "alacarte " from term .. [04:10] darksidedelayue: do you see any results? It should not be blank [04:11] harriseldon: I do see the results [04:11] hi what what software do i need to use to apply theme to the panel? can emerald do this? [04:11] AlabamaHit: and this is not done in linux. this you have to do on your router. connect to your rooter by typeing the gateway ip. [04:11] inutshell alacarte opens, but it wont save changes. it doesnt even seem to be alacarte that opens though, just the regular gnome editor because the one that i open with root is exactly the same, and about says its the regular gnome editor [04:11] AlabamaHit: in firefox, opera or something [04:12] how do i do a file search by file type? [04:12] darksidedelayue: that is good sign. It seems like the driver is loaded. next we will see if the video device is available. type ls /dev/video0 (ls is for list, so it starts with L and that is a zero at the end.)

[04:14] inuteshell: alacarte opens, but it wont save changes. it doesnt even seem to be alacarte that opens though, just the regular gnome editor because the one that i open with root is exactly the same, and about says its the regular gnome editor [04:15] slowlearner, amenado, is there a way for me to compile all these files together?

In the prefs menu [04:26] darksidedelayue: can you try sudo modprobe r5u870 (let me explain first since sudo is very powerful). modprobe will attempt to load a driver. r5u870 is the driver. So this command means super user do (sudo) load driver (modprobe) driver name (r5u870). Tell me the results.

[04:29] AlabamaHit you can be certain that the linux firewall won't be blocking if you type sudo iptables -F , that flushes all the rules. sudo iptables -L wil list them [04:29] Hello, how can i turn off the autonegotiation from a nic? [04:30] spork969: can you cp file.m4p folder with no problems? [04:30] RenatoSilva, english is weird... [04:30] harriseldon: I put in the command, but nothing is happening..

[04:30] slowlearner just use home [04:31] hanophix33 pick one, then alt-f2 emerald --replace . [04:31] nickrud: would flushing them be bad? or is that to just make them Default like when you first insatll? [04:31] slowlearner, yeah, no problem with an image file [04:31] darksidedelayue: now type dmesg (this will list the system log on the screen. Check the last lines to see if the webcam driver was loaded correctly) [04:31] ahhh nice [04:31] AlabamaHit: yeah, sounds like it, but this is really wierd cause like i said. ubuntu don't block anything by default. === Azer_ is now known as Azer [04:31] spork969: bout with the m4p? [04:31] So flushing will put back to Defualt just incase Firestarter changed somethign? [04:32] Anyone know how to delete keyrings? I've set one two years ago for a service that I thought I would never use, but alas, I require it now. [04:32] AlabamaHit I don't run a firewall on my laptop since I run no services that listen to the net and need stateful protection [04:32] AlabamaHit yes [04:32] k === pierre_ is now known as babbe [04:32] hi, I'm looking to purchase a wireless router for a house i'm moving into, and I'm wondering if, in general, the routers that say they work w/ linux, actually DO [04:32] harrisoldon: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63489/ this came up [04:32] lrkr wired [04:32] spork969: sin (of breaking God's laws) + ap (like in 'cap') + teek??? [04:32] lrkr wireless is wireless, the issue will be the chip that linux is using directly [04:33] Anyone know how to delete keyrings? I've set one two years ago for a service that I thought I would never use, but alas, I require it now. [04:33] RenatoSilva, yes, yes, tick as in the little bug or the sound a watch makes [04:33] lrkr wireless + linux = hell [04:33] sin (of breaking God's laws) + ap (like in 'cap') + teek??? This is the right pronounce of synaptic? [04:33] harriseldon: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63489/ this came up when i typed the command [04:33] nickrud: okay, that's pretty much what i figured. First time doing this though, so I thought i'd check [04:33] lrkr: It depends by what "working with linux means" If able to rout linux computers, all of em will. If to run linux itself on the router, different issue [04:33] lrkr: doesn't every router works with linux? the router doesn't care what system you run as long as it has a ip to give (if i'm not mistakeing that is) [04:33] RenatoSilva yes, with accent on the middle syllable [04:34] sjovan yea but alot of your nics whont work [04:34] genii: na, not looking to install linux onto the router, at least not the one i'm looking at [04:34] Any one know how to delete Keyrings? [04:34] RenatoSilva: not teek, tick [04:34] sjovan wireless cards are soo flaky [04:34] i had a wireless card.. take took me weeks to hack it and put up some codes.. that jesus crist.. idk how i am alive because i almost killed my self.. [04:34] lrkr: Then I wouldn't worry much [04:34] darksidedelayue: dmesg only holds the last few lines of the log, unfortunately we are too late to capture the results. try ls /dev/video0 to see if the video device is present now. === soulripper is now known as Soulripper88 [04:34] spork969: humm, really nice, thanks! [04:34] sjovan: yeah, that's what I thought, i'm just a bit paranoid about effectively setting it up [04:35] gogeta: well, wireless card is another issue :) [04:35] genii: okay, good:) thanks [04:35] Anyone know how to delete keyrings? I've set one two years ago for a service that I thought I would never use, but alas, I require it now. [04:35] sjovan burns down the linksys building 8-) [04:35] (Please reply, this is urgent...) [04:35] harriseldon: no such file or directory [04:36] cruddpuppet you can just refresh it [04:36] What do you mean "refresh"...? [04:36] cruddpuppet run the keyring commands again [04:36] lrkr: all of common routers has a html settup. all you need to do is to type the localgateway adress in firefox to edit the router settings [04:36] spork969: English is really weird [04:36] gogeta: I am not using the command line, if that is what you believe. I [04:37] darksidedelayue: let me think a bit. I will get back to you ... [04:37] slowlearner, yeah i can move a single m4p file with no problems [04:37] RenatoSilva: you don't seem to be having problems with it [04:37] its just when im trying to do it with all of them [04:37] slowlearner: tick, like in 'it'? [04:37] harriseldon: ok, thank you [04:37] cruddpuppet it should just repalce the old one [04:37] RenatoSilva no it's not, it's perfect :) /me stops with off topic, gotta practice for next week [04:37] l23twire-> was it bcm43xx chip wireless? [04:37] sjovan: excellent. sorry for the stupid question, i've just never had to work w/ anything wireless before. [04:37] hey why are restricted users able to cd to / and /root [04:37] You mean add a new keyring to replace it? [04:37] RenatoSilva: yes [04:37] cruddpuppet why not [04:37] sudobash restricted? you mean non admin? [04:38] lrkr: np :) anyways... wireless do suck teh balls. [04:38] yes ssh users non admin.. [04:38] gogeta: It does not work. [04:38] cruddpuppet :-( [04:38] that got it :) [04:38] sudobash because the dirs' are listed as readable by all. The ones that matter, like /etc/sudoers don't have read permissions [04:38] AlabamaHit: goodie :D [04:38] lrkr-> if you have toyed with radios, and cell fones, those are wireless :P [04:38] I just had to restart the computer after i cleaard it [04:38] sjovan: yeah, honestly I prefer a wired network, but it's a 3 story house w/ 5 people in it and a cable connection on the third floor:( [04:39] Firestarter must have done something [04:39] or i did and didnt mean to. [04:39] amenado: i actually haven't, at least not from a configuration pov [04:39] but why are they able to go in other users files [04:39] in /home [04:39] cruddpuppet knothing a 50ft cable and a drill bit cant fix [04:39] sjovan hehe [04:39] gogeta: That's the problem.

[04:40] spork969: what did `(backtick) '(single qoute) which did you use? [04:40] what's the Shuttleworth's nick? [04:40] or i use the chmod numbers [04:40] spork969: `(backtick) '(single qoute) which did you use? [04:40] sudobash: Set up user permissions appropriately (so users can't read other users home directories) [04:40] Torrent wasn't connectible...Firewall was blocking it [04:40] AlabamaHit: you really don't need a firewall in linux. anyways... can't really help you there. have never played with firestarter? have you googeld how to firestarter ubuntu maby? [04:41] sudobash because that's the default. The default creation I don't remember where you change it [04:41] slowlearner, single quote [04:41] spork969: use backtick [04:41] AlabamaHit-> ah okay, is it fixed now?

[04:42] flannel how do you do that? [04:42] sudobash-> you have a umask , look at those too [04:42] sudobash you change UMASK in /etc/login.defs , that would change it for any new users [04:42] ahh [04:43] slowlearner, i get really weird errors like "cannot stat 'Free'" and cannot stat 'Bird' [04:43] cruddpuppet have you tryed gnome-keyring-manager [04:43] AlabamaHit-> it is enabled, just that the rule is empty and default is allow [04:43] * jullie tImes GO tO HOme [04:43] or rather ACCEPT [04:43] spork969: what are you trying to do? [04:43] so really like there aint a firewall there, lol [04:43] slowlearner, do i use backtick in the beginning or end or both? [04:43] gogeta: That is the command that takes me straight to the GUI version, which is what I am using. [04:43] spork969: that's because of the filenames having spaces in them or other chars [04:44] AlabamaHit no, it's there just defaults to allow all [04:44] # 027, or even 077, could be considered better for privacy [04:44] # There is no One True Answer here : each sysadmin must make up his/her [04:44] # mind.

[04:46] cparker: The only difference in the flavors is the default GUI; you can have any/all installed at once, etc. Nope just install it (and if you want to remove ubuntu, theres a website iwth a nice and easy command, let me know) [04:46] [TOUCHPAD] hello yes Synaptics Touchpad is reporting no touchpad related stuff detected or/and no repeater device -- in windows its listed as a ps2 / serial mouse- how can i fix this so i can use my laptop touchpad > [04:46] spork969: cp *.mp4 detinationdir [04:46] danage you can also boot from your hard disk, you specify which directory that .iso resides..

[04:49] spork969: type ls and see if they are there [04:49] gogeta: stick 1gb, no drives in computer [04:49] nickrud: and how do i close it then? [04:49] prince_jammys, "5 A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W" [04:49] danage stop being cheap and but a cd drive [04:50] danage under 10$ [04:50] decay close it? stop the server is easiest. [04:50] buy [04:50] danage: did you check to see what it taking up all of the space? [04:50] spork969: there are no mp4s in the directory you're in [04:50] nickrud: thanks. although i just installed openssh-server, i just use ssh to connect to it, right? [04:50] spork969: are they in subdirectories? [04:50] harriseldon: how do i check? it is one partition in the size of 1 gig [04:51] decay: ssh client is installed by defualt in ubuntu. ssh server is not [04:51] zcat boot.img.gz > /dev/sdb1 made it that way [04:51] harriseldon: Ok, now what? [04:51] Odd-rationale: Thanks [04:51] sup [04:51] prince_jammys, yes subdirectories [04:51] AlabamaHit: np [04:51] ok, I´m having some giant problem...I just installed this on a new computer...and it won´t load in regular mode..it just goes completely black and does nothing...so I have to go into recovery mode and use the gdm start command to get it to work...what´s up? [04:51] can i op [04:51] spork969: ah [04:51] danage ubuntu plus usb isnt gonna run very fast [04:51] danage its not made for it [04:51] Flannel: Thank you very much. [04:51] I have an issue with modprobe lol. [04:51] if i upgrade to Hardy by running: update-manager --devel-release [04:51] darksidedelayue: try the multimedia systems selector again. alt-f2 followed by gstreamer-properties [04:51] in what folder are the software that i install??? [04:51] gogeta: i am only trying to install from usb. it has a hard drive [04:52] will i be stuck on the development branch after heron is released? [04:52] when I type modprobe b43 it just freeses [04:52] it´s a 32 bit version of 7.04 if that matters....on a dual core processor on a VIA board [04:52] bpr: npo [04:52] no [04:52] I'm running the newest release === Andres_ is now known as RoAkSoAx [04:52] 8.04 [04:52] decay I apologize, the server doesn't listen to the net by default. edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config , find the line with ListenAddress and uncomment it [04:52] Odd-rationale: thanks. i guess what i was getting at, is openssh and ssh the same thing? [04:52] modprobe b43 [04:52] harriseldon: Same thing as before [04:52] Ongaku: on a normal boot, can you go to ctrl+alt+f2 and log in there? [04:52] danage: thanks [04:52] decay: ssh is the protocal. [04:52] spork969: this:: find . -name '*.mp4' -exec cp {} destinationdir \; [04:52] danage well 1gb probly isnt big enough [04:52] odd-rationale: it doesn´t do anything...it just goes black [04:53] nickrud: great. so i can just commend out Port 22 line and it should be safe right? (after restart) [04:53] sudo modprobe b43 is what I type [04:53] odd-rationale: i have no idea what it could be,,,its weird [04:53] gogeta: yes it is [04:53] Ongaku: even in ctr+altf2? [04:53] decay yes you can do that. [04:53] Can Someone direct me to a P2P prog for ubuntu...Please [04:53] odd-rationale: yeah [04:53] nickrud: but you suggest just stopping the ssh server? okie dokie [04:53] danage well then i would say format it flage it bootable and extrack the iso on it\ [04:53] UMASK didnt work... unless it needs a restart [04:53] darksidedelayue: I am at a loss. What was the laptop model? maybe I can search online. [04:53] Ongaku: how about in ctrl+alt+f8 [04:53] decay you can then test locally..ie ssh localhost [04:53] gogeta: ok never mind. this isn't helping. thank you [04:54] decay although you might want to check the ipv6 stuff, I find my memory is faulty. Time to refresh [04:54] odd-rationale: just goes black so i go to recovery mode and type /etc/indit.d/gdm start and it loads everything right [04:54] spork969: exactly as is with that punctuation and the dot between find and -name [04:54] sudobash you can set it now, and the try to touch a file see if the effect is immediate [04:54] prince_jammys, im changing the file extension and the destination directory hold on a sec [04:54] odd rationale: i have not tried that but idk it just goes black and nothing is there i can´t ctrl alt delete or backspace or anything [04:54] amenado: oh sweet. thanks. === Art is now known as ArtII === ArtII is now known as ArtL [04:55] Ongaku: have you tried? [04:55] can someone answer my question? [04:55] josh_: limewire? [04:55] Hey, I've got a quick question [04:55] prince_jammys, you are a hero. it worked perfectly. thank you [04:55] danage: did you look here http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/09/28/usb-ubuntu-710-gutsy-gibbon-install/ [04:55] that works on linux? [04:55] spork969: no problem [04:55] josh_: google [04:55] Ive gota quick question, why would i want to compile my own kernel? [04:55] danage well if you cant figure out what i said [04:55] josh_: maybe through wine [04:55] odd-rationale: nothing has worked so far, i have no clue lol [04:55] decay: no there is a linux port [04:55] decay: its a java based application [04:56] Does Ubuntu have trouble recognizing aux batteries? [04:56] joshhunt-> to customize to your needs or add special needs items [04:56] alright thank you very much....One more have you heard of FireStarter? [04:56] Ongaku: are you on another machine right now? [04:56] My Latitude D630 aux battery doesn't seem to be used in Ubuntu, only the primary [04:56] josh_: no but im sure if you google it for linux support you'll find out if it can run or not [04:56] thats just the linux firwall right [04:56] amenado: I see. What 'features' could i add, and what would i customise? [04:56] alright think you [04:56] josh_-> a front end to the iptables netfilter [04:56] joshhunt to enable some experimental stuff, maybe change the latency, only include the stuff for your hardware (speeds up booting slightly) , for fun [04:57] odd-rationale: the only thing I did different on my install was add pci=noacpi before i installed because the help said it helps VIA boards...and when I didn´t put that command it wouldn´t work [04:57] oh ok, thanks! [04:57] harriseldon all he needs is bartpe or simple flage and extract it [04:57] Anyone? [04:57] odd-rationale: no im on recovery mode [04:57] harriseldon should boot the install cd direct [04:57] I hope you can help me. I used vista disk mangement to create a partition. It unallocated 69 gigs. I am now in the partiton portion of Ubuntu 64 install. Problem is that its stating whole disk when you attempt to select the drive AND it keeps picking the drive that is other than thw vista partition. Can you help me? Can I just go with what ubuntu selcted for the drive, or should I go on and select the drive that vista partitioned fo [04:57] harriseldon i did that w puppy befor [04:58] UMASK 077 [04:58] harriseldon: It's a sony vaio, VGN-FZ160E (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-VGN-FZ160E-Laptop-Processor-Premium/dp/B000Q3UOZ2) [04:58] joshhunt-> you can compile a kernel that only plays video or multi-media, after boot.. [04:58] darksidedelayue: I will search online and let you know what I find out [04:58] and i could still read all dir including /root and other /home dir [04:58] harriseldon: thank you very much [04:58] Ongaku: did you check the dmesg ? [04:58] Anyone? Please? [04:58] amenado: i see... [04:59] odd-rationale: i´m kind of a newb so i don´t know what that is heh [04:59] odd-rationale: never had problems before i installed on my new computer [04:59] configured a LAMP server last evening and was able to use phpmyadmin ok; now when i try to open links it is telling me that XXX is a script ot XXX is a phtml file what am i missing [04:59] sudobash that is for _new_ users, and only affects stuff that gets created by those users, like home Won't affect current users. And still won't stop users from reading any open file [04:59] At all? Please? [04:59] oops... [05:00] odd-rationale: my old system was a dell with a pentium 4 in it lol [05:00] !ask | ArtL [05:00] ArtL: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) [05:00] Ongaku: try "dmesg | less" in a terminal and scroll to the end and see if there are any suspicious warnings... [05:00] odd-rationale: ok one second [05:00] My Latitude D630 aux battery doesn't seem to be used in Ubuntu, only the primary. Does Ubuntu have a known problem with auxillary batteries? My Vista install doesn't have the same problem [05:00] Sorry, I'm a bit new to IRC ethics [05:01] spork969: is your issue solved? [05:01] nickrud sudo sandwith [05:01] i created a new user [05:01] slowlearner, yes, thanks for all your help [05:01] odd-rationale: lol there´s alot of stuff on this [05:01] [TOUCHPAD] hello yes Synaptics Touchpad is reporting no touchpad related stuff detected or/and no repeater device -- in windows its listed as a ps2 / serial mouse- how can i fix this so i can use my laptop touchpad > [05:01] and ssh and still can read directories [05:01] odd-rationale: do you want me to pastebin it? [05:01] actually i deleted a user and re created him [05:02] sudobash umask is about _creating_ stuff, not reading [05:02] Ongaku: sure [05:02] whats a program as light as gedit, but has options ot make text bold, color, etc (openoffice is too heavy) [05:02] sudobash if you have that new user create a file, you'll see it's readable only by him [05:02] spork969: np, learned something myself..also found the solution to it just now [05:02] well i want a way to restrict viewing of other /home user directories [05:02] decay: a good lightweight word processesor is abiword [05:02] cool [05:03] darksidedelayue: I may have found something! let me read first and try to understand. I will let you know. [05:03] configured a LAMP server last evening and was able to use phpmyadmin ok; now when i try to open links it is telling me that XXX is a script or the link to phpmyadmin is a phtml file what am i missing [05:03] sudobash anything created by that user will not be readable by anyone but him and people with admin privs [05:03] exist a realtime MIDI synthesizer for ubuntu? [05:03] hehe [05:03] decay: gedit is more like a simple text editor. like notepad === arstan is now known as arstanj [05:03] Odd-rationale not really true anymore, with the plugins available it's a pretty powerful editor [05:03] decay: abiword? [05:03] Odd-rationale: i know. and i just googled abiword, too heavy [05:04] dont need all the fancy, just color and text [05:04] Any advice? [05:04] can someone please help me? I can only suspend Gutsy once, the second time the screen just goes black when resuming with a cursor. Any ideas? [05:04] odd-rationale: uh lol wont let me select all [05:04] Hi, all [05:04] harriseldon: ok [05:04] should i use 027 or 077 and is there a way to prevent users from viewing current home files? [05:04] Ok... so i just installed Ubuntu... ive NEVER used it b4, dont know a single thing... is there a chat room on this server that will help me learn ? [05:04] metalstryker: yes, this is the chatroom [05:04] metalstryker your're in it. [05:04] !training | metalstryker A good place to start [05:04] metalstryker A good place to start: A desktop course manual for Ubuntu 7.10 can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training [05:04] here metalstryker [05:04] metalstryker lol [05:04] nickrud: yeah. i know. just trying to make a distinction between a wordprocessor and a text editor [05:05] metalstryker: there is a website with a lot of help for new ubuntu users and covers a lot of things [05:05] metalstryker: do you want me to look for it for you? [05:05] Odd-rationale didn't read back far enough, crdlb's response put me in context ;) [05:05] Ongaku: install pastebinit: sudo apt-get install pastebinit [05:05] sarcasm mmm [05:05] odd-rationale: ok [05:05] My first main question... I have dual monitors... ive been looking around and dont see an option to extend the monitors so both work together [05:06] Ongaku: then "dmesg | pastebinit" [05:06] My Latitude D630 aux battery doesn't seem to be used in Ubuntu, only the primary. Does Ubuntu have a known problem with auxillary batteries? My Vista install doesn't have the same problem [05:06] any website would be nice. lol. [05:06] metalstryker: it has a walkthrough of a lot of things you might be wondering about (terminals, commands, gnome, kde) [05:06] I can explain the code. "sudo" means "superuser do" and essentially (in Linux/Unix) makes the computer do whatever you tell it to. Like delete all your data. (Oh, noes!) [05:06] metalstryker : here you go; http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/ [05:06] !dualmonitor metalstryker [05:06] !dualmonitor | metalstryker [05:06] metalstryker: Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama [05:06] odd-rationale: ok [05:06] I'm a linux newb too, and that website helped a lot [05:07] I have a laptop that has a touchpad, which is installed in windows as a MS PS/2 mouse --- in linux in my 'Device Manager' its down the bottum as: 'Microsoft PS/2-Style Mouse' how do i get this to work, as i believe it is the link to my Laptops TouchPAD_ - been on this issue for hours now, [05:07] thanks everyone.. lol. i know it can be a pain dealing with noobs sometimes [05:07] metalstryker yeah, psychocats has a lot of good stuff [05:07] metalstryker there are no noobs, only future developers here ;) [05:07] hyperstream plug it in? [05:07] odd-rationale: it loaded it up i gues [05:07] even the "pros" will have one now and then [05:07] does anyone here use enlightenment 16? [05:08] Ongaku: did you do "dmesg | pastebinit"? where's the url? [05:08] metalstryker: I haven't even gotten myself on ubuntu yet, but sometimes I just like coming here for a chat and to learn more :) [05:08] I'm trying to figure out how I can start conky when I login without having acommand prompt open and running conky & [05:08] gogeta: its built into the laptop just below the BUILT IN keyboard, its a square pad with 2 buttoms below it, its like a MOUSE system built into the laptop ?? it should be hardwired in yes? [05:08] K4k add it to system->prefs->sessions startup tab [05:08] Any ideas on the partition issue that I m having? [05:08] odd-rationale: http://paste.stgraber.org [05:08] hyperstream or a tuchpad [05:08] hyperstream oh [05:08] nickrud, I'm not using gnome [05:08] hyperstream you said ps2 [05:09] Ongaku: is that what it gave you? [05:09] K4k then how you do it depends on what you're running [05:09] odd-rationale: yeah [05:09] ill be back in a lil , i got alot of website reading to do. thanks all. [05:09] gogeta: it comes up as a ps2 in linux and windows- works in windows but not in linux [05:09] hyperstreamoh [05:09] nickrud, because the way you're telling me to do it will set it to start with gnome only IIRC, I run E16 so I don't think that method willw ork [05:09] synaptics doesnt relise its a device, nor does it in windows [05:09] K4k how are you starting enlightenment? with startx? [05:09] odd-rationale: what´s that mean? [05:09] hyperstream do you have a ps2 connected? [05:10] nickrud, no, gdm [05:10] gogeta: synaptics doesnt relise its a device, nor does it in windows | it thinks its a ps/2 mouse plugged in, no i have a usb mouse [05:10] Ongaku: hmm. try again. that doesn't seem right. do "dmesg | pastebinit" (with out the quotes) and paste the resulting url [05:10] nickrud, does that method of setting startup programs set them to start with gdm? [05:10] hyperstream some usb will show ub as ps2 [05:10] K4k look in ~/.enlightenment, there's probably a dir or file called startup or similar. Haven't run enlightenment for years, but I think I remember one [05:10] hyperstream uses the same driver [05:10] nickrud, thanks [05:11] darksidedelayue: I am looking at http://wiki.mediati.org/Support I am wondering if this would cause ekiga not to work ( Application doesn't support webcam section). [05:11] odd-rationale: usage: /usr/bin/pastebinit [filename|-] [URL] [05:11] Default pastebin: http://paste.stgraber.org [05:11] Version: 0.6 [05:11] K4k you've almost convinced me to install it. Sliding desktops seduced me into linux ;) [05:11] gogeta: ive unplugged it and had al ook at hardware in linux- it still remains, in windows i unplugged it, the usb mouse was under: USB intelloptical Mouse and ms ps/2 mouse was still listed [05:11] Does anyone know how to connect to a linux box remotely? [05:11] harriseldon: What do I use in replace of ekiga then? I really wish to be able to use my webcam [05:12] hyperstream my usb mouse shows up as a genrec ps2 soo [05:12] Sharp12, if the box has sshd, then you can ssh to it [05:12] odd-rationale: it´s 7.04 if that matters, i had some huge issues upgrading and I had to reinstall my old CD [05:12] Ongaku: nvm. just do "dmesg > dmesg.txt && gedit dmesg.txt" copy and paste from there and pastebin the result. [05:12] The kubuntu room is really quiet [05:13] odd-rationale: ok [05:13] hyperstream but that normaly the defuly driver if linux cant tell what it is and most of the time it works out [05:13] how come all the traffic is in the ubuntu room? the kubuntu room is like, all sshhh [05:13] Ongaku: hopefully 8.04 will fix your problem... [05:13] Danish989 all the cool folks hang out here [05:13] does this mean people prefer ubuntu over kubuntu? [05:13] it sure seems that way .. and yeah, I agree with you nickrud ;) [05:13] gogeta: well in /dev/input i have: event1 which runs my keyboard- it also has event2 3 4 right up to 8, and mouse0 and mouse1 [05:14] chmod 700 [05:14] hyperstream so it sees it [05:14] odd-rationale: http://pastebin.com/m337db2d3 and yeah...I gotta get 64 bit too I guess I don´t know if that is causing any conflictions cos i have a AMD X2 [05:14] darksidedelayue: what do you want to do with it? If you want to do video chat, you can try skype 2. It is better supported by non-Linux users. Otherwise I am at a loss at how to get it working. Sorry. I purchased a cheap kinamax usb webcam from tigerdirect and it works. [05:14] How do I use a .png file for a launcher's icon? [05:14] gogeta: i believe so i just dont know how to tell which one is which and how to enable it in the xorg [05:15] pitr256 : How do I ssh to it from windows? [05:15] Creationist right click the launcher, and click the image of the icon [05:15] Sharp12, use putty [05:15] hyperstream well removing the externel should switch to the tughpad [05:15] I'm having problems with Grub Loader because I installed ubuntu on a SATA hard disk :/ [05:15] get an Error 22 each time on boot ... [05:15] nickrud: It doesn't list the PNG files when browsing for an icon. [05:15] gogeta: its currently looking at /dev/input/mice for my usb mouse, can i copy and paste this change the Identifier and change the /dev/input line and restart X ? [05:15] gogeta: it doesnt [05:15] nickrud: I thought I'd just save it to SVG with Gimp, but apparently Gimp doesn't support that filetype. [05:15] Creationist that's not right, nearly all icons are either svg or png already [05:15] odd-rationale: oh i found this in it...if you haven´t gone that far [drm:via_mem_alloc] *ERROR* Attempt to allocate from uninitialized memory manager. [05:16] Danish989-> that has not been resolve yet eh? [05:16] Creationist inkscape is the svg creator [05:16] harriseldon: I did not know skype worked with linux. I just wish to do simple video/voice chat with people who are mainly mac/vista/xp users [05:16] hyperstream yes you can change the dev input line to point to another mouse [05:16] hyperstream like mouse1 [05:16] gogeta: tyvm brb [05:16] and restart and see [05:16] nickrud: Well, I don't know what to tell you, but it will not let me select a PNG file as the icon. [05:16] amenado: nope ... maybe I'll just reinstall ubuntu on another HDD and wipe it out from the SATA hard disk [05:17] Creationist where's the launcher, panel, desktop, menu? [05:17] amenado: and if I still encouter the same problem, then I'll worry about pointing grub in the right direction [05:17] My Latitude D630 aux battery doesn't seem to be used in Ubuntu, only the primary. Does Ubuntu have a known problem with auxillary batteries? My Vista install doesn't have the same problem [05:17] Danish989-> good luck [05:17] Amenado: Thank You :) [05:17] Ongaku: ok i really don't know what's wrong. my suggestion would be to boot normally, then go to ctrl+alt+f2. there, you will find a text login. see if you can login there... [05:17] darksidedelayue skype is multiplatform [05:17] darksidedelayue and a 3rd party yahoo client supports that stuff as well [05:17] how do you clear konsole history? [05:17] nickrud: I've tried both the menu and panel. ANd typing in the filename gives me the most hilarious error message: "error accessing 'file:///home/nrossin/LuxDelux/LuxIcon.png': File exists" [05:17] odd-rationale: ok I will try that...I´ll brb [05:17] pitr256 : you the man!!! now I hope I can find the username and password to it! [05:18] gogeta: do i need to reboot or just restart x? [05:18] nickrud: So, it can't be accessed because it exists? lol [05:18] hyperstream restarting x should work [05:18] nixinwin: rm bash_history [05:18] hyperstream but be ready if it doesent like it [05:18] darksidedelayue: try skype then. Check the repositories first for version 2.0. That version supports video. skype even has an ubuntu download. [05:18] gogeta: got backed up already :) [05:18] thanks, Odd-rationale [05:18] gogeta: is wacom anything to do with touchpad? [05:18] nixinwin: .bash_history [05:18] nixinwin: I forgot the "." [05:18] hyperstreammaybe not a laptop pro [05:19] harriseldon: http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/ So, I just download this and I will be able to do video+voice chat? [05:19] gogeta: i have a listing for wacom with ident as cursor [05:19] Creationist ah, I almost forgot. When you navigate to the directory, hit ok. You will get a selection window [05:19] ah :) [05:19] Odd-rationale, where is the .bash_history located? [05:19] Sharp12, what do you mean? [05:19] Creationist I remember going round and round on that years ago, had forgot how deceptive it is [05:20] hyperstream yea seems like it is [05:20] nixinwin: ~ [05:20] ~/.bash_history ? [05:20] nickrud: That did it. How foolish is that? [05:20] this is odd, i go to certain web sites that can resize my firefox window... is there anyway I can prevent that? [05:20] Wacom tablets are notable for their use with a patented cordless, battery-free, and pressure-sensitive stylus (an on-screen writing pen) [05:20] thanks again [05:20] gogeta: well mouse1 is my usb, and mouse0 is nothing - [05:20] darksidedelayue: I cannot guarantee that it will work. You will have a better chance of connecting to windows and mac users with skype anyway. Be sure to choose the Ubuntu 7.04 version [05:20] harriseldon: Ok I'll try this. Thank you for your help. Have a nice evening [05:20] gogeta: how can i verify if wacom could be my touchpad? [05:20] darksidedelayue: you too. Sorry I could not get it working for you. [05:20] hyperstream try enabling it [05:20] does anyone know where i can get specific help with Thinkpads and Ubuntu aside from thinkwiki? [05:20] nickrud: Thank you. [05:21] i followed their directions but i'm still having problems with suspend/hibernate [05:21] american: what problem u have with tp? [05:21] Creationist no problem. I hadn't changed one on a panel in quite a while, forgot that crappy interface [05:21] when i try to suspend it goes black except for the blinking cursor and does not suspend [05:21] american: oh, not an expert there, my X61 just worked with hibernation out of the box.. [05:21] then i have to hold down power till the laptop turns off [05:21] night all!! [05:21] is there any command line wav player i can simply do "program /path/to/wav" on the console?

Ask every 5 minutes or so, the complete question (I don't use vnc at all, so am no help) [05:28] pitr256 : not at this moment...but I'm remote into a windows box which is on the same network as the linux server. [05:28] when i use ssh, i can run x11vnc without a password, but when i run x11vnc -usepw, it tells me it cannot open the display. this does not happen locally. what gives? [05:28] nickrud: any alternative you used to share your desktop. [05:28] Hey folks, I've got a question about Compiz Fusion/Wallpapoz/Workspaces. I have my desktop to have 4 workspaces, arranged on the cube. My end goal is to have one unique desktop and set of icons per workspace. So far, I've gotten Wallpapoz to switch my wallpaper when I rotate around the cube, but it's laggy, and doesn't offer any option for icons. Ideas? [05:28] Sharp12: That wont do you any good. If you don't know a user/pass, the only way to re-set it is physical access [05:28] beginwebgui I don't share it :) [05:28] gogeta: this is going to be a nasty challenge [05:29] Sharp12, the only way to gain access is to have a user account [05:29] nickrud :D [05:29] hyperstream yea they make both tablet pcs and tuchpads [05:29] hyperstream you suppport is all jumbled [05:29] Flannel : How do I reset it when I have physical access? [05:29] gogeta: ok so next question, does wacom work with synaptics or its either 1 or the other ? [05:30] hyperstream one and the same [05:30] gogeta: thats confuses me ?

[05:32] fn +f7 [05:32] Sharp12: No, just choose recovery console at the GRUB menu [05:32] omg omg omg omg!!! where's the "any key" I'm lost! [05:33] * afallenhope lol kidding [05:33] I just want to change the time on the stupid time! [05:33] hey my desktop isn't show up any ideas? [05:33] Sharp12 if you don't see a menu on boot, hit escape when it says grub 1.5 on the screen [05:33] Sharp12: You want to do what? [05:33] harriseldon: i didn't found x11vnc command in my version of ubuntu. [05:33] i have done cntrl alt backspace to just have a bunch of applet loading errors and no desktop?

[05:38] hyperstream that will turn it on [05:38] i.e. I'm tired of waiting 6 months for updated packages [05:38] larzmaybe this? http://www.wikihow.com/Convert-a-Flash-Video-File-(.flv)-to-MP4-with-FFMpeg :) [05:38] harriseldon: i do not have access to machine physically :( [05:38] were is the subsection "disply" in the xorg file [05:38] specifically, does apt-get have the ability to track source packages? [05:38] beginwebgui: you want to connect to another machine? How is the other machine sharing the desktop? [05:38] gogeta: i think im on to something here brb 10 mins dont go away! :D [05:39] nickrud: Notice my post. I pasted the code said in there, because I'm not rally sure about it. [05:39] lartza_ did you look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iPodVideoEncoding [05:39] lartza_ doing that command is not going to break anything [05:39] lartza_ so give it a shot :) [05:39] harriseldon: i can access them through regular ssh.. but with different port from :1 :2..... [05:39] harriseldon: There was no method for flv [05:40] lartza_ the input file does not matter. The encoding options are on the output [05:41] harriseldon: Oh! So I can replace the place where avi should be with flv? THank you [05:41] lartza_ yes try that [05:41] hyperstream i found alot of info on it [05:41] hyperstream diggin google is your frend [05:41] beginwebgui did you look into X11 forwarding? [05:42] gogeta: well i can get all the tablets loaded now in wacom by pointing it all at mouse0 [05:42] beginwegui this should allow you to run x apps through the ssh session, but display them on your local x.

[05:43] hyperstream does it work [05:43] lol [05:43] gogeta: but in saying that synaptic unloads before wacom kicks in due to it not finding anything [05:43] gogeta: ill upload a pastebin [05:43] does linux have widgets? [05:43] hyperstream yea set it back to defult [05:43] is there any way to customize a ubuntu install? [05:43] Sharp12, yes [05:43] I don't want to wait 6 months for updates to the repos [05:43] hyperstream you have a enable command [05:43] gogeta: well the thing is default is /dev/input/wacom [05:44] gogeta: wacom doesnt exist, but mouse0/1 and event1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8 does [05:44] Sharp12, but it could be a generic user account for all the samba "Windows" shares [05:44] gogeta: so its gotta be one of them surely [05:44] hyperstreamlol [05:44] is the playing of movie .mov done in apache or is it in the browser?

[05:44] Sharp12, it might not have rights to remotely login to the server using ssh [05:44] hyperstream well we need that sys program running [05:44] talcite_ that's the ubuntu release model. If you want more recent packages, you might want to investigate debian unstable or fedora [05:45] talcite_ backports or 3rd party repositories can be used for some apps. It depend on what you want updated that is not part of the standard repositories [05:45] hyperstream at least we knoe it loads [05:45] gogeta: you cant start that synclient thingo without having synaptic running with SHMConfig running, you cant have it running if it doesnt pick up the wacom? [05:45] nickrud: I run gentoo on my laptop, but that's a bit too much customization... It took me a month to compile everything [05:45] talcite_ yeah, you would want something in the middle ;) [05:45] harriseldon: i think i have to vino.. [05:46] hyperstream yea i dont think so [05:46] pitr256 : so should I just use the recovery concole? Is that my only hope? [05:46] What Gives? i can run x11vnc from terminal emulator, but not from tty or through ssh. [05:46] nickrud: so there's no way to track if I compiled a newer package from source? [05:46] hyperstream becides you whant your other one working to [05:46] gogeta: i tried: synclient TouchpadOff=0 results: Cant access shared memory area, SHMConfig disabled?

[05:47] yes its defaul now [05:47] oh... packaging... of course [05:47] Sharp12, if you can get physical access to the server in question, then yes the recovery console is your only hope [05:47] nickrud: any good place to learn packaging skills?

[06:21] stars: reboot into newly installed env hung :( on the blank line immediately after * Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) [ OK ] [06:22] Daisuke_Ido, I know this isnt the videolan channel but they are all dead in there and NO ONE is talking but I have a VLC issue.. you know VLC? [06:22] #awk [06:22] f, you're asking a biased pool [06:22] menloh: no big deal [06:22] you got it to install eh :> [06:22] f the people in #ubuntu-offtopic discuss that stuff, sometimes. This is the wrong channel for asking that question. (see Daisuke_Ido :) [06:22] ehhh... [06:22] now when you are booting, just push escape to get into and edit the grub line, and put whichever bit you needed to before. [06:22] either that acpi=off noacpi ; or the noprobe [06:22] witakr, i know a little, i'll see what i can do [06:22] will do. [06:22] when your booted let me know [06:23] saschahl: i gotta ask is that a vhost? [06:23] the 2001: bit? [06:23] nickrud, I've got dual monitor, each @ 1280 x 1024. Putting in 1380 for the X doesn't put it on the right monitor, how can I do that? [06:23] or are you actually one of the few thats on ipv6 early adaptor [06:23] dmsuperman not sure about dual monitors, never ran one [06:23] darn [06:23] duals are easy [06:23] Daisuke_Ido, well, the default contrast and brightness and gamma settings are way off and i cant get my changes to be saved when i close and restart the VLC player, you know how I can make my changes apply everytime I play a movie? [06:24] nickrud: gnome/ubuntu is correct [06:24] <_Silhouette_> starscalling: any idea how to fix? [06:24] dmsuperman: whats your poison, hardware wise [06:24] i just want my setting to be retained [06:24] is there anyway to see which event1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 is link to what type of hardware? IE mouse/keyboard [06:24] starscalling, i'm trying to get Compiz window placing to work with dual monitor [06:24] _Silhouette_: still looking... [06:24] bid1 you can create the file ~/.gnomerc , and put it there. gnome specific but it works nicely for stuff like that [06:24] Any AWK wizards online? [06:24] starscalling, and I've got a nVidia 7900GS KO with latest drivers [06:24] dmsuperman: ah that only works on active monitor [06:24] is there also a global file ? [06:24] starscalling, darn. [06:24] witakr, that i'm completely lost on [06:25] you could get it going but then you need xinerama, and that makes things maximize to both [06:25] i only really use it for quick-previewing video [06:25] I got a 8800gtx for my computer and now I cant boot the ubuntu live cd neither v7 or v8, is there anything I can do to fix this? [06:25] ask in #compiz-fusion, perhaps they have a better solution [06:25] starscalling, yeah, i'm happy with my current setup [06:25] and if you find it TELL ME :> [06:25] rflol [06:25] Daisuke_Ido, Alrighty then [06:25] Daisuke_Ido, thanks anyway [06:26] Daisuke_Ido, sorry to steal... or ruin your thunder..lol [06:26] starscalling, alright [06:26] heh, no worries [06:26] Is there a way to get bcm43xx working under Ubuntu 8.04?? [06:26] ok [06:27] _Silhouette_: [06:27] <_Silhouette_> ? [06:27] if you normally have to restart: try opening terminal after setting it, and do: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [06:27] tehquickness, you might want to ask in #ubuntu+1 [06:27] [if it normally autoworks after you try to set it manually] [06:27] starscalling, I don't see that happening though, the channel is _dead_ [06:28] Daisuke_Ido: What is ubuntu+1? [06:28] Daisuke_Ido: nvm I got it [06:28] dmsuperman: state problem, and idle [06:28] what makes it so when my regular user creates directories in their home those directories are owned by root and not the user that created it? [06:28] <_Silhouette_> starscaling: okay, but I still can't connect to the router :( [06:28] stars: my bad. :-) the login prompt was appearing before the boot messages were done. all is lovely. [06:28] starscalling, That's what I've done [06:29] yeah i see it [06:29] starscalling, what about moving windows between monitors? I've got Ctrl + Win + Arrows to switch viewports, and Ctrl + Alt + Arrows to switch viewport taking current app with me, but is there a way to just move between monitors? Like, so I could just hit Ctrl + Right and throw the current app on the other window? [06:29] _Silhouette_: if you put in the stuff, then reboot you get into the router that way right? [06:30] stars: can I easily get the install cd out of the sources.list by commenting a line or two? [06:30] benanzo that would only make sense if the user did sudo mkdir [06:30] ctrl+shift+alt+arrow [06:30] <_Silhouette_> starscalling: I try to connect, I put in the password, but it keeps asking me for the password. I have yet to connect to the router. [06:30] you just went from 4 to 1 :> [06:30] goes across cube nicely too [06:30] _Silhouette_: hrmz [06:30] I think it is something with umask [06:30] _Silhouette_, wep? [06:30] I don't know [06:30] how do I get the menu back in Xchat? [06:30] <_Silhouette_> daisuke_ido: yes [06:31] what WEP are you using? [06:31] mkdir $HOME/Testdir [06:31] _Silhouette_: wireless? [06:31] Daisuke_Ido: ive an inkling that it might be to do with hex vs askii [06:31] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: yes [06:31] Starnestommy, same. [06:31] benanzo umask only affects what permissions are given, not owner [06:31] err [06:31] _Silhouette_: you got issues with starting up , you have to manually connect? [06:31] ive gotten stuff like that to work by doing manually in terminal at times.... [06:31] starscalling, doesn't do anything, I probably overwrote it or it's not enabled. Which plugin does that? [06:31] sup? [06:31] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: I can't connect period. [06:31] _Silhouette_, 10 digit wep key? [06:31] <_Silhouette_> Daisuke_Ido: um...I think it's more. [06:31] anyone got a broken compiz too? [06:31] 26? [06:32] dmsuperman: try it wtih ctrl+super+shift+arrow or swap ctrl for alt [06:32] pwuertz define broken [06:32] pwuertz, you really need to define "broken" [06:32] <_Silhouette_> Daisuke_Ido: yes, 26 [06:32] _Silhouette_: try to connect then pastebin what dmesg is saying about your wireless [06:32] starscalling, nothing involving any combination of ctrl, alt, shift, and super [06:32] you would have noticed ^^ [06:32] _Silhouette_, that would be 128-bit hex, i think [06:32] starscalling, all of them do nothing [06:32] :) [06:32] <_Silhouette_> Daisuke_Ido: yes, it is [06:33] !gutsysources [06:33] gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates). [06:33] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: It says "Waiting for network key" when I hover over the icon [06:33] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: then I can't connect [06:33] on my hardy / intel system... compiz is fine... on my hardy / nvidia system, compiz doesn't do anything at all... its like a system without window-manager [06:33] hm [06:33] plugin put has options you can config [06:33] window manager or window decorator? [06:33] but let me find where it is by default [06:33] pwuertz #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release, /j #ubuntu+1 [06:33] _Silhouette_: what does dmesg from a terminal, and how are you configuring the wireless adapter? networks in Sys>Admin> ? [06:33] oops [06:33] fun [06:34] thought this was +1, sorry ^^ [06:34] how do i know the actual size of an archive and not the size uncompressed? [06:34] wonder if it's close enough to release to justify upgrading to hardy on here... [06:34] pwuertz nothing like my dropping into it, and telling them to ask their question in +1. Done that more than once ;) [06:34] already upgraded on the laptop (and what a nightmare it's been) [06:34] ah [06:34] that one is a carry over from gnome [06:35] Daisuke_Ido wait for the rc, friday [06:35] cool [06:35] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: http://pastebin.com/m123f58f5 (dmesg) [06:35] hello guys [06:35] applications > system tools > configuration editor [06:35] Daisuke_Ido and check for/file bugs left and right as you see them.

[06:50] !pastebot [06:50] Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebot - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [06:50] !paste [06:50] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel.

[06:53] yes daisuke [06:53] nickrud, ok, did that, no change [06:53] _Silhouette_: you can fake the numbers if you want but there should be only private ip's. [06:53] perhaps i should have clarified that... what is sharepoint? [06:53] <_Silhouette_> ace_suares: how can I tell the difference? [06:54] is there a good mp3 player that gets rid of dups ?

[07:00] <_Silhouette_> ace_suares: of course I have internet on my laptop. I just need to be connected to the network through my router, not THEIR router. You say I am, but I need to see my network. [07:00] <_Silhouette_> ace_suares: the GUI says I'm connected to theirs. [07:00] _Silhouette_: your connected to your wireless router and your wireless router is ocnnected to the ineternet, you have internet access [07:00] _Silhouette_: ooo now i understand [07:00] _Silhouette_: very confusing [07:00] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: It's not the internet access, it's MY router vs. THEIR router. [07:01] _Silhouette_: you have TWO routers (yours and theirs ?) [07:01] <_Silhouette_> ace_suares: exactly. [07:01] _Silhouette_: now i understand [07:01] <_Silhouette_> sorry for not being clear :) [07:01] _Silhouette_: pfff... [07:01] * ace_suares forgives _Silhouette_ [07:01] _Silhouette_: hehe- ok whats the SSID of there network and yours? [07:02] _Silhouette_: in the gui, can you see BOTH routers if you scan for netwroks ? [07:02] <_Silhouette_> ace_suares: yes, I see both in the GUI. I can't connect to mine though. It says "waiting for network key" and starts to mess with my connection [07:02] is there a download manager for Ubuntu? [07:02] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: I don't know their SSID. mine is "sigler" [07:03] bazzieb: what do you mean by download manager? [07:03] _Silhouette_: ok so you need to enter in a network key most likely wep ? [07:03] _Silhouette_: what keys/security is your router using ? Look in the xp box to know [07:03] well kinda like DAP? [07:03] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: the name is "Academy1", maybe that's the SSID [07:03] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: yes my key is WEP-128 [07:03] _Silhouette_: ASCII or HEX? [07:03] <_Silhouette_> 26 characters [07:03] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: Hex, I think...? [07:04] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: 26 chars, letter/number combo [07:04] _Silhouette_: I can't help you anymore... not to good in wireless where keys involved... sorry !

[07:05] <_Silhouette_> hyperstream: Yes. I put it in, "waiting for network key" and then it times out I guess, breaks the connection, and asks me for the key still [07:05] !ask | noob2000 [07:05] noob2000: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

[07:10] noob2000: a shell sssion ? [07:11] ace_suares: I'm not that of a noob... for instance: ssh -X host set | grep DISP doesn't yield anything either.

[07:14] ace_suares: but it's the same problem. if DISPLAY isn't set for the session, it won't be set for particular commands, either [07:14] noob2000: yeah i just dodn't know it worked als with -X.

[07:52] well, guess I'll go back to the drawing board for now [07:52] how can i tell the last things run? [07:52] interest [07:52] i want to know what is causing this extreme lockup [07:53] I'm having a really rough time with mod_rewrite in dapper(server), and .htaccess. I do sudo "apache2 -l" and it doesn't list the mod_rewrite module. But when I "a2enmod rewrite" it says it's enabled.

[07:54] Intangir: do you use nvidia ? [07:54] there is a file in the user yaoziyuan's trash:/// that yaoziyuan doesn't have permission to delete [07:54] but as root i can't find yaoziyuan's trash [07:55] I think its /home/user/.trash [07:55] ah [07:55] pibb: it says not found [07:55] Tonisius, sorry, that was a vague statement that would be easy to take either way. [07:55] http://www.happypenguin.org/list?sort=approved_date O: game list for linux hehe [07:55] try /home/user/.Trash [07:56] case sensitivity's a bummer [07:56] ace_suares: ya [07:56] Daisuke_Ido: also not found [07:57] ace_suares: is nvidia causing the lockups? [07:57] yao_ziyua1: explore the /home/user/ of your choice, there usually is a .trash folder in the user's directory [07:57] yao_ziyua1: /home/user/Desktop/.Trash .trash [07:57] /home/yao_ziyua1/ maybe? [07:57] yao_ziyua1: hope you are replacing the 'user' portion of the location [07:57] yao_ziyua1, you are replacing "user" with "yaoziyuan" right? [07:58] there are .transmission and .trigger [07:58] but not .trash [07:58] also no .Trash [07:58] kde or gnome? [07:58] Daisuke_Ido: yes, /home/yaoziyuan [07:58] have you done a 'locate'? [07:58] i need some help getting sound out of my pc, music and stuff will play fine on the labtop speakers, but if i send it through the jack output nothing comes out, does anybody have an idea as to why this is happening? [07:58] locate trash or locate Trash ? [07:58] Daisuke_Ido: ubuntu 8.04, Nautilus [07:59] i can't imagine them changing the location of the trash... [07:59] but maybe [07:59] Intangir: probably. Go to www.launchpad.net, make an account, search for bugs relating to nvidia and freeze or lockups... [07:59] maybe these are relevant: [07:59] /home/yaoziyuan/.trash [07:59] sorry, [07:59] that line is wrong [07:59] yao_ziyua1, you could try asking in #ubuntu+1, it just seems very odd that there is no trash :\ [07:59] /home/yaoziyuan/.gnome/gnome-vfs/.trash_entry_cache [07:59] /home/yaoziyuan/.kde/share/config/trashrc [07:59] maybe they just deleted their trash folder =\ [07:59] !urban rsi [07:59] Sorry, I don't know anything about urban rsi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [08:00] !rsi [08:00] Sorry, I don't know anything about rsi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [08:00] that's possible, i suppose [08:00] as yaoziyuan, [08:00] the trash is at trash:/// [08:00] and i can see the junk there [08:00] but how do i delete it as root? [08:01] ah ha [08:01] yao_ziyua1, that's a meta-trash, so to speak [08:01] right click it, check its properties, it will tell you where the file is actually located [08:01] good [08:01] then you can delete it from the command line [08:02] can someone tell me how do i mount a tape drive... [08:02] Daisuke_Ido: it says: Location: trash:/// [08:03] right click on something in the trash [08:03] namely, right click on the thing that you can't delete as your normal user [08:03] Does anyone know of a simple to install bandwith monitor, preferably a GUI that sits in the systray? I don't want to spend hours compiling or messing with settings and libraries. [08:04] sasko, almost nothing in ubuntu requires compiling anymore [08:04] how about something for the panel? [08:04] pibb: i did [08:04] pibb: the right-click Properties dialog box still uses trash:/// as a relative path to refer to its location [08:05] wow, [08:05] Thanks Daisuke. For the panel would be great, but i want a log file to be written. [08:05] so far I'm still trying to install Ubuntu, but I guess the trash has changed a lot in the last 3 years... [08:05] or 2 years.. [08:05] god, it's been a while [08:05] i need some help getting sound out of my pc, music and stuff will play fine on the labtop speakers, but if i send it through the jack output nothing comes out, does anybody have an idea as to why this is happening? [08:05] google is being my friend at the moment [08:05] as yaoziyuan, Nautilus says there is junk in trash:/// [08:06] as root, Nautilus says there is nothing in trash:/// [08:06] sasko, right click the bar, add to panel, choose system monitor, right click the new monitor on your bar, choose perferences, change it to network and close it [08:06] trash is relative to each user..

[08:06] yao_ziyua1: have you checked your mount folder? I remember that things:/// were related to /mount/things [08:07] maybe a link is locaed in your /mount/trash for that user? [08:07] yao_ziyua1: and when is the last time you ran an updatedb for your locate database? [08:07] In my opinion, the best part of Ubuntu for me was the ability to zoom in fluidly using ctrl+wheel. Does anyone know if this is possible (even through some software) in Windows? [08:07] maybe the 'locate' is searching old locations [08:07] i need some help getting sound out of my pc, music and stuff will play fine on the labtop speakers, but if i send it through the jack output nothing comes out, does anybody have an idea as to why this is happening?

And I got it working under Ubuntu. I've played nexuiz with it (with a keyboard along the side), and it played pretty well. But how do i "multiply" the buttons i can use on the bamboo, like can be done on gamepads? Example: You hold one button down, it switches all the other buttons to a "shift" state, so that all the other buttons do different actions now. [09:45] which must be : /linux/arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S [09:45] but there is not such file in the folder!!! [09:46] how can i update my 7.04 to 7.10 with out formating the hard [09:46] with the live cd of 7.10 [09:50] powertool08: testing hilight script [09:50] hey whats the name of the off topic room?

But how do i "multiply" the buttons i can use on the bamboo, like can be done on gamepads? Example: You hold one button down, it switches all the other buttons to a "shift" state, so that all the other buttons do different actions now. How do i do this? [09:53] icesword: i think they want me to pay for nod 32 [09:53] !sound [09:53] 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/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [09:53] crazytalk, then just try it for free [09:53] crazytalk, usually 30 days [09:54] i will i will [09:54] thing is i don't even have windows installed, i just want to scan some questionable files i downloaded to use under wine (i know it's very unlikely they will infect wine). i will have vista again at some point in the future for dx10 === bekim is now known as LaNdi [09:55] is there any help in here? or its just a place for spamin? [09:56] mamazi: its just a bit quiet at the minute, you might have to try again a bit later on [09:57] mamazi: what is the problem [09:58] i cannot find syscall_table.S file in Ubuntu [09:58] i have to change that for adding new system call! [09:59] mamazi: sorry no idea [09:59] ok thanx [09:59] Willizar, I can at least answer to that : did someone answer to you yet ? [09:59] mamazi: /join #ubuntu-kernel [09:59] thanx gregory [10:00] mamazi: there's a mention of it on ubuntuforums that somebody edited theirs, they found it in arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S: Does that help at all? [10:00] Willizar, you open Synaptic, go to menu Configuration repositories and in the write tab you can add CDrom [10:01] anyone here know how to resize the bootup and quit splash screen when it to big? [10:02] DJones, mamazi what is the need for changing a syscall ? [10:02] 5+6,75 [10:02] or that one ? [10:02] uops sorry [10:02] lol dexem [10:02] mamazi: Possibly /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/kernel/syscall_table.S [10:02] melodie: I've no idea [10:03] /usr/src/linux-headers-2.X.XX-XX-generic/arch/i386/kernel [10:03] DJones, weird isn't he ? mamazi : you're weird indeed. [10:03] there is not such file called syscall_table.S [10:03] ;) [10:03] :P [10:04] mamazi, when it works, don't fix it ! ;) [10:04] melodie: nothing is weird with linux. its a system, where you can change everything [10:04] gregory_, I said mamazi is weird, not Linux [10:04] although... :D [10:05] i have to add something Melodie [10:05] melodie: i guess you found him weird because of his question. otherwise you would have to know him personally [10:05] mamazi, wouldn't it be better if you said directly what your aim is ? what do you want do add ? [10:05] I am trying to connect to a network printer that has an ip address and a http://lpd.xxx.xxx:631/printers/xxxx name what is the best way to connect to this? I think printing in the network requires an username and password here [10:06] gregory_, because we don't know yet why he needs doing that (add or change a syscall) [10:06] melodie: i want to add a simple function like addition (int,int) to system call [10:06] I tried every combination I could think of in the Printer configuration screen, but no luck printing a test page yet [10:06] who knows if the method he wants to use is the best and most easy ? [10:06] melodie: i understand ;-) [10:07] Twim4: on new kernel [10:07] Twim4: figure out the solution.. revert my ATI to use vesa [10:07] mamazi, did you ever read the "smart questions" text of E.S.Raymond ?

[10:09] thyko: Try asking in #ubuntu+1, they should be able to direct you to the beta version you need [10:09] How do i make a mouse button (in this case, a button on my tablet) a modifier button that, when pressed, changes all the other buttons on the tablet to something else, and when released, restores their state? [10:09] hello, my new installation starts booting up and then I just get a flashing curser in the top right with a black screen, any ideas ? [10:09] XB23: I would like to disable the tightvncserver password because I use it only in a private network (2 machines) and I have taken care about the security [10:09] thyko: http://www.google.de/search?hl=de&q=kubuntu+download+iso+8.04&btnG=Google-Suche&meta= . trying to brush up your googling skills may also be an option for you [10:09] I've made only swap and / partitions. I wan't to change some options, but shell doesn't recognize my root password? I type su -, and it won't log me as root. Where's the problem, and can I change somehow that passwd? [10:09] Thank you.

[10:10] thks FloodBot2 but that's just a hyperlink ! [10:11] bad floodbot! [10:11] guja_nebeska: did you set a root password? Normally when you use sudo etc, the password it needs is yuor user password [10:11] DracoZA, :p [10:11] DJones, how to set root passwd? [10:11] I type my user pass. [10:11] mamazi, did you get it ? [10:11] But it won't. [10:11] Anyone help me with my flashing curser on startup pls ? [10:11] mamazi, did you catch the two links I've thrown to you ? :D [10:11] yes melodie, thanx :D [10:12] ok mamazi ! :P === KnifeHat_ is now known as KnifeHat [10:12] melodie tow many lines, too fast. FloodBots are unforgiving :) [10:12] !root | guja_nebeska, Root isn't configured, see this info which should help you, [10:12] guja_nebeska, Root isn't configured, see this info which should help you,: 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 [10:13] methinks melody tows too many lines too! [10:13] nickrud, yes, I could have gone to tinyurl.com, I'll do that next time [10:13] actually who is using b43 wifi driver? [10:13] melodie it wasn't the length of lines, but number [10:13] why do i have a lot of interface? [10:13] dem [10:13] sudo passwd root ? [10:13] nickrud, yes, but the link is huge, so... [10:14] * DracoZA needs some basic help please :) [10:14] DracoZA when does the flashing cursor appear, after the loading screen or right away? [10:14] after loading screen goes all the way [10:14] I have to reboot, see you ! [10:14] DracoZA what type of video chip do you have? [10:14] im 99% sure it actualy boots into Ubuntu [10:15] nickrud its an MSI motherboard [10:15] onboard vga [10:15] DracoZA did the live cd work? [10:16] I only have a text install cd atm [10:16] DracoZA ok. Do you know what kind of onboard vga it is? === Biohazard_ is now known as Biohazard === u^A_ is now known as u^A [10:18] nickrud checking [10:19] could someone please explain how i get my wireless card to work with windows drivers? I did visited page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NdiswrapperOnAMD64 but it was quite odd.. they talked about debian folder that i saw no where in ndiswrapper folder [10:19] nickrud Geforce 6100 apparently [10:19] I've got amd64 ubuntu [10:19] muibe: it's easy [10:19] you just use the .ini file [10:20] type ndiswrapper in your terminal [10:20] and it will ask for the .ini [10:20] after playing a dvd on my notebook, the cd tray will not open. I get a message that some other app is using it how do i get it open [10:21] try using another app to open it [10:21] like an audio player or something [10:21] Hello [10:22] DracoZA hm. That's supposed to be a well supported chip, usually that problem is something to do with video. You can try booting into the recovery mode, and when you get the command line enter: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg . Choose the vesa driver, and a reasonable screen resolution. When done, type exit and see if you get a desktop [10:22] nickrud gonna try that now. thx [10:22] debian_ will do thanks. I cannot print PDF docs from evince as well. It worked for 10 pages but wont anymore. [10:23] gavin_ lsof | grep /dev/cdrom should give you an idea about what program is holding the dvd [10:25] I think that u can try this too, ps ax | grep dvd [10:25] nickrud_ Thanks a million [10:25] And then kill the pid [10:26] in other terminal [10:27] rootman_ thanks [10:27] is it always this quiet this time zone? [10:27] nickrud I get a message ...overwriting possibly customised cinfiguration... then back to prompt [10:28] cheers everyone [10:28] DracoZA that's right. It backs up the original, and creats a new one. If you did ls /etc/X11 you should see two [10:28] DracoZA two xorg.conf* that is [10:29] I don't know if this is the right place to ask but, what's the best program to run windows games on ubuntu? Is it really Wine? [10:29] how to use the --purge commamd? [10:29] nickrud: yes, normally quiet until about 11am uk time [10:29] DarkSpirit221 wine, or cedega or crossover office (the last two are wine on steroids) [10:30] nickrud: woo its been 2 years [10:30] nickrud: The last 2 are free? [10:30] cder sudo apt-get remover --purge [10:30] cder sudo apt-get remove --purge [10:30] nickrud it worked without the -phigh [10:30] i was bliis nick i remeber you in your office [10:31] DracoZA it works both ways, without -phigh it asks fewer questions. But anyway, type exit and lets see ;) [10:31] nickrud:you had a broken nose i think [10:31] clap clap it worked [10:31] cder hey. (why does everyone change nicks) [10:31] pardon.. [10:32] is there any way to remove "Secure remote connection" option from GDM's sessions? gdmsetup doesn't seem to provide any options and gdm.conf doesn't even mention it. should recompile GDM's package or is there a hack around? [10:32] am I connected to you? [10:32] setting up 8.04 GDM [10:32] DracoZA now, try system->admin->restricted manager, and get the accelerated restricted one [10:32] cder not recently ;) [10:32] k thanks nickrud [10:32] How can I check my current nVidia driver version? [10:32] Can anyone help me get a brother MFC-685cw connected? Thanks in advance [10:32] barli yep, we see you [10:32] nickrud, do you ever sleep man?

[10:35] cder no :) [10:35] how do you defeat irq opression [10:35] ? [10:35] DarkSpirit221 no, I use windows in a vm rather than wine [10:36] I just tried to install 64-bit ubuntu [10:36] hey all [10:36] nickrud heres a question, I have two pretty similair but not quite identical pc's both MSI, I want to be able to take the hard drive and move it with Ubuntu between the two machine. Is there a way around having to use dpkg-reconfigure every time ? [10:36] how can i fix this. I am connecting to it via massiveatom.com... [10:36] is it normal to get this from uname -a ? [10:36] nickrud: clue hh [10:36] barli and this is one of the most active lists [10:36] nickrud: oh, ok [10:36] Would anyone like to help me with my issue? [10:36] can we talk to the mIRC..?

[10:37] brandon__, yes [10:37] barli many irc clients are available, that's a popular one [10:37] for cedega questions [#cedega] [10:37] nickrud: then its a wek today newelease [10:37] hi, how should i instruct dpkg to leave fallback to previous config? [10:37] consfearacy, so this is actually 64 bit? why does it say generic [10:37] barli: mibbit.com XD [10:37] Brandon_ you succeeded [10:37] ActionParsni1 how complicated is it ? [10:37] brandon__ it's the x86_64 that matters [10:37] brandon__, see it says x86_64 ... [10:37] my friend use mIRC in windows.. [10:37] when I do uname -r specifically, I get "2.6.22-14-generic" [10:37] 5 [10:37] Brandon_, *smack* [10:38] hi, how should i instruct dpkg to fallback to previous config and leave unconfigured packages? [10:38] 4 [10:38] 3 [10:38] i'm having trouble with my b43 Twigathy [10:38] DracoZA: quite but doable, alternatively you could dual boot 2 systems but mount home to the same partition on both boots [10:38] i'm having trouble with my b43 Twim4 [10:38] 2 [10:38] DracoZA: it is an Ubuntu issue [10:38] leeneex: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [10:38] can I talk to him as the same time I use my Xchat>..? [10:38] erwin you mean, default to your altered config? [10:38] helo, i have 2 monitors running as one Desktop: 1920x1200 and 1280x800. When i run mplayer on fullscreen in the second Screen, is grows to 1280x1200 - how can i tell mplayer to use 1280x800 as fullscreen size? [10:38] my rate only 1mb [10:38] nickrud: yes [10:38] and i got a lot of interface [10:38] 1 [10:38] Brandon_, uname -m = arch [10:38] anyone can help me on b43 driver? [10:38] nickrud: i tried installing this software.. and messed up things [10:38] i got wlan0 , wmaster0 === bidget is now known as Bidget [10:38] sbingner, ? [10:38] this is really "the wrong way" to disable it but chmod -x /usr/lib/gdm/gdm-ssh-session seems better than recompiling GDM :-) any better way to disable GDM's "Secure remote connection" option? [10:38] !b43 [10:38] Sorry, I don't know anything about b43 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [10:39] erwin what's messed up? [10:39] how can i update my 7.04 to 7.10 with out formating the hard [10:39] ActionParsni1 k i'll see what I can learn on that one thx [10:39] nickrud: now i cant apt-get anymore [10:39] with the live cd of 7.10 [10:39] !2007 [10:39] Sorry, I don't know anything about 2007 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [10:39] sbingner, I'll try that [10:39] erwin ah. sudo apt-get -f install , if that doesn't fix it, put the complete output on http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org [10:39] hmm, ok [10:39] nickrud: i can't do that.. it will remove the whole system.. [10:39] it just threw me for a loop when I saw that. I thought immediately that the cd doesn't install the kernel I expected it to [10:39] Willizar get another hard drive, its risk free :) [10:40] DracoZA: you could just buy a new hdd and have a usb storage for your files which goes between instead of the OS [10:40] !upgrade | Willizar [10:40] Willizar: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [10:40] k [10:40] next question, what kernel / version of ubuntu would be best to run on a intel core 2 duo? [10:40] let me see [10:40] Is anyone good with printers? [10:40] !atheros [10:40] Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [10:40] GunbladeIV try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=633635 [10:40] brandon__ generic [10:40] meaning, optimized best for intel core 2 duo [10:40] hmm [10:40] ActionParsni1 it's actually being used in a call centre environment for support purposes but the pc specs differ ever so slightly [10:40] brandon__ the generic auto tunes to the processor [10:41] look to it Twim4 .. give me 5 min [10:41] !ask | Crazytom [10:41] Crazytom: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) [10:41] DracoZA: I see [10:41] nothing more specific? like how there is SMP for SMP athlon cards.. ? [10:41] nickrud: i'll paste what it says when i try to issue that command [10:41] nickrud... how ever... thank you very much for the information.. [10:41] K8, whatever that stuff is... [10:41] nickrud: when i do sudo apt-get remove --purge nameofpackage says can;t find package purge [10:41] brandon__ if you look at your uname -a, you'll see you have smp [10:41] gregory, I already asked the question. I was trying to politely ask it again. [10:42] cder that's very odd: sudo apt-get remove --purge , copy and paste that then add the package name [10:42] cder: sudo apt-get remove packagename; sudo apt-get autoremove [10:42] Yeah, I thought that was an error or something. I thought SMP was for athlon cards [10:42] nickrud: i thinked it worked now.. last time i tried its telling me to remove about 777mb, that's like my full installation [10:42] Can anyone help me get a brother mfc-685cw connected via wifi [10:42] ActionParsni1 that doesn't purge (remove config files) [10:42] so there's nothing more optimized for core 2 duo? [10:42] Twim4: nope.. no info... [10:43] nickrud: oic [10:43] brandon_ if you want it optomised then compile your own kernel [10:43] nickrud, hello, good evening. [10:43] hi icesword [10:43] nickrud: i wanna upgrade from a cd not to down load it [10:43] ActionParsni1, hmm, nice, [10:43] ActionParsni1: no i want to remove the config file also remove does not do that [10:44] brandon__ you misunderstand: it has many modules available, and tunes itself. You no longer need to compile kernels to optimize different chips and processors [10:44] !apt-cdrom | willizar [10:44] Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-cdrom - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [10:44] Willizar is it a text install cd? (alternate) [10:44] cder: sudo apt-get purge [10:44] #planeta-ubuntu-brasil [10:44] live nickrud [10:44] icesword howdy! [10:44] did you try this packege http://ubuntuforums.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=30328&d=1177147133 ? [10:44] ActionParsni1, nickrud, so action's suggestion wouldn't give a faster result (compiling it myself)? [10:45] How can i find out what programs are running on what port?

[12:01] do i need to partion the harddrive if i wan to setup ubuntu [12:01] ricanelite, you can reinstall grub after installing windows vista [12:01] !grub > ricanelite [12:01] !grub | ricanelite [12:01] ricanelite: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [12:01] sandraaaa: http://wiki.awn-project.org/Plugins [12:01] ricanelite: check the info from ubotu [12:01] ricanelite, get a 2nd hard drive. Unplug linux hd, install plug in xp drive.. install xp to it.. :) plug linux back in. set up grub to boot windows hd. :) is how i did it last week [12:01] THX [12:01] HellBound: if you have no spare space, yes [12:01] np [12:01] is there any software for ubuntu like tequilla cat bookreader (it makes java from txt for phone) [12:01] um really [12:01] thanks Dr.Willis for that advice. [12:01] ricanelite, also you should try running that windows app over wine [12:01] Hi guys...

I'm planning to build a mythtv box. [12:02] i wan to install it on C drive Xp is installed on E drive and 7 GB free space on C drive [12:02] HellBound, what kind of problem [12:02] DistroJockey: thanks. :) [12:02] ciacon, using wget -R [12:02] Davo_Dinkum: the nv driver (in my view) is not appropriate for hi res TV [12:02] Arelis: you're welcome :) [12:02] darksidedelayue: that's the idea... it works for me, anyways. [12:02] But will it do that resolution? [12:02] HellBound, go for the manual partition [12:02] no im totally new in linux environment thas why facing so much trouble [12:03] Davo_Dinkum: depends on the card and the monitor [12:03] oh, my. that was in scrollback. sorry. [12:03] could anyone tell if any of the releases of ines on this page will work with ubuntu? http://fms.komkon.org/iNES/ [12:03] 24" LCD that does 1920x1200 natively and an nvidia 6xxx series card [12:03] yeah it does not work. I was also thinking of using Virtualbox which I have installed and running Windows Vista. But it does not run all that fast. [12:03] PCI express [12:03] roffe__, there are/were some nes emulators in the repos at one time. [12:03] Davo_Dinkum: it totally depends [12:03] I might show her, but she is the type of person that does not want to learn anything, LOL [12:03] ok im going to setup ubuntu now if i face any problem i will ask u guys again [12:03] :) [12:04] yeah, but I specifically need ines [12:04] HellBound, sure [12:04] on? [12:04] Davo_Dinkum: that card and the monitor [12:04] thx for helping me [12:04] :) [12:04] roffe__, I dont know about INES, but there are NES emulators working on Ubuntu, [12:04] is there a website for the nv driver? [12:04] Davo_Dinkum: xorg [12:04] Davo_Dinkum: x.org [12:04] yeah, I know, but Ines is what I need :) [12:04] I have installed ubuntu and when I choose it its take me this ERROR 17:cannot mount this partition [12:05] "iNES 3.0 Linux (RedHat) binaries for 80x86" this is the closest bet, you think it'd work? [12:05] roffe__: no [12:06] Ok, then that's why it refuses to do anything [12:06] "iNES 0.5 Linux binaries for 80x86 (A.OUT)" maybe this one? [12:06] roffe__: no [12:06] Ok, there's none left... no ines for me :( [12:06] roffe__: but try it, [12:07] already have, but I thought I was doing something wrong [12:07] ubuntu_,did you re-compile the kernel after installation [12:07] roffe__: probably won't work [12:07] roffe__, try it and see. how did you run it? did it give an error... ect... [12:07] arvind_k: he's just installed it [12:07] arvind_k: he can't fix a grub error, do you think he's recompiled his kernel..... [12:07] ubuntu_: you have a linux live cd handy? [12:07] ikonia, are you following him [12:07] I am trying to install ubuntu over network. I have got dhcp server running and my client machine does get an ip from it. Then the client machine looks for the file /pxelinux.0 or something and then just sits there.

I have two cron jobs running that output text files, the files are stamped with a creation date exactly one hour ahead. What do I need to do to sync the system time with the cron job file creation time? === joetheodd_ is now known as joetheodd [12:08] roffe__, that version does not run propelry on this ubuntu box. looks like its a bust. [12:08] Dr_willis: If I didn't do anything wrong it couldn't accept the command ines -help [12:08] ok.. thanks for helping! [12:08] ikonia, shall i help him [12:08] ./ines -help [12:09] Killed [12:09] hi all [12:09] arvind_k: if you want. [12:09] What a lovely error message that is. [12:09] ikonia: Can you please look over my problem? [12:09] small problem [12:09] ikonia i would love to [12:09] haha [12:09] when im doing "clamscan --version" i get "clamscan: error while loading shared libraries: libclamav.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" [12:09] Dr_willis: looks like a very early glibc dependeny === joetheodd is now known as joetheodd_ [12:09] ubuntu_ you around?? [12:09] McJerry, cron is managed by the system clock already [12:09] Mad-Freaky: your missing a libaray === joetheodd_ is now known as joetheodd__ [12:09] yes [12:09] is SATA 3.0Gb/s are SATA II?

[12:10] i change my name ubuntu>MGS88 [12:10] jeah i know that thx but i cannot install it [12:10] sdakak: have you setup the pexeboot daemon and the pexe image to boot it ? [12:10] lamego: what would cause the described behavior then? why are the files being created with times one hour ahead of system time yet the cron jobs are running as scheduled? [12:10] MGS88, were you the one having the grub errror === joetheodd__ is now known as joetheodd [12:10] can mutt or any other text-based email client connect to a microsoft exchange mailbox? [12:10] hcoal: no [12:10] i have to mention im a pretty noob at ubuntu [12:10] I have tried following many howtos I am stuck. Please tell me how to check that. [12:11] anyone tried 8.04 LTS? [12:11] pheriod_: everyone in #ubuntu+1 [12:11] :) [12:11] ikonia: ^ [12:11] sdakak: which how to are you following [12:11] McJerry, are those fast processes ? any change they could take 1h to run ? [12:11] I'm having a weird problem with apache. I have a php file that starts with , but when I load it from apache, it says Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1. How can i debug this? [12:11] tuna: join #apache [12:11] Can you recommend a comprehensive listing of the Gutsy changes towards Feisty? [12:11] arvind_k -->what you mean? [12:11] tuna: bottom line if php is not installed/configrued on your server [12:11] McJerry, did you by any chance override the user TZ by setting the TZ environment variable ? [12:11] bullgard4: change log [12:12] ikonia: php certainly works, I have been working with dynamic pages all day. [12:12] MGS88, there was a guy here having problem with his grub,his name was ubuntu thought it was you [12:12] bullgard4, read the gutsy release notes ? [12:12] yes he is me [12:12] bullgard4: there is a quick summary http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/releasenotes/710 [12:13] tuna: ok - so off to #apache then [12:13] ikonia: this one http://mywheel.net/blog/index.php/ubuntu-network-install/ [12:13] MGS88, ok so boot from your live cd and mount the partition where you installed ubuntu [12:13] sdakak: thats a VERY old how to, it's referencing ubuntu 5.10 [12:13] hello [12:14] Hey can someone get me the command to edit xorg.conf inside of terminal [12:14] I forget it, lol [12:14] Auctionedllama, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf [12:14] MGS88, then chroot onto the mounted partition and say grub-install /dev/hda (assuming the drives are hda) [12:14] Auctionedllama: sudo $editor /etc/X11.xorg.conf [12:14] Auctionedllama: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf [12:14] thanks mates [12:14] how [12:15] MGS88, get a pen and paper and write down these commands [12:15] ikonia: Can you suggest a better one. [12:15] ikonia: jeah i know that thx but i cannot install it [12:15] thanks [12:15] sdakak: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot?action=show&redirect=PXEInstall [12:15] Mad-Freaky: know about what sorry ? [12:15] MGS88, where did you install ubuntu by the way [12:16] sdakak: also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstallServer?highlight=%28pxe%29 [12:16] Lamego: these are fast processes, the run immediately. How can I check the TZ variable for the current user? [12:16] when im doing "clamscan --version" i get "clamscan: error while loading shared libraries: libclamav.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" [12:16] you said missing a library [12:16] McJerry, echo $TZ [12:16] Mad-Freaky yes, your missing shared libraries [12:16] ikonia: Excuse me. I made a typing error. I should have written: "Can you recommend a comprehensive listing of the Gutsy changes towards Hardy?" [12:16] Auctionedllama, use gksu for editing [12:16] ikonia: jeah i know that thx but i cannot install it [12:16] bullgard4: same thing, change log [12:16] Mad-Freaky how did you install clamav ? [12:16] from console [12:16] apt-get [12:16] ikonia DistroJockey arent we supposed to use gksu for editing xorg [12:17] Mad-Freaky: then the library should be installed, you must have deleted it [12:17] arvind_k: only with graphical editors [12:17] how do i re-install it [12:17] ikonia, you mean with gedit?? [12:17] Mad-Freaky: apt-get remove [12:17] arvind_k: no - I mean with any X11 based editor [12:17] Lamego: echo $TZ yields blank, nothing is set [12:17] Arelis: you still there? [12:17] bullgard4: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron/Beta/ [12:17] McJerry, ok, i am out of suggestions :( [12:18] Lamego: no problem, thanks for the input [12:18] does amarok download podcasts? [12:18] ikonia: Thank you. [12:18] ikonia: i get "no such pakket" (freely translated) [12:18] Mad-Freaky: than you've not named the package correcly [12:19] Mad-Freaky: dpkg -l | grep -i clam (see what the package is called) [12:19] DistroJockey: yes [12:19] libclamav3 [12:19] ricanelite: yes it does, check under playlists [12:19] ok [12:19] Mad-Freaky: thats not a package name, thats a library [12:20] DistroJockey: you helped me further. I think i can fit the final piece of the puzzle by installing a program that switches keys around when you press a certain key. Because in nexuiz, modifier keys don't work [12:20] Arelis: nice :) [12:21] DistroJockey: In Nexuiz, modifier keys are just regarded as normal keys [12:21] Arelis: was just about to reply to your post, and just to help others. Add details if you like and mark as solved maybe? [12:22] Arelis: I know nothing about tablets :) [12:23] what does ./ really do? [12:23] roffe__: current directory [12:24] yeah, but like the guy did earlier ./ines to execute the program [12:24] sry, for being unclear [12:24] amarok is not seeing my ipod and Banshee is [12:25] roffe__: means ines would need to be in the current directory, is needed at times [12:25] DistroJockey: what i wrote in the topic: I got a bit further by examining the xsetwacom and wacomcpl tools. Seems you can bind custom keybindings to a key. So you can bind one to a modifier key (such as alt), and then have them behave differently when you hold that key. Problem is, nexuiz (and most other games) use modifier keys as normal keys, so when you, for example, want to assign that modifier key + button1 in nexuiz, it thinks you want t [12:25] ok.. thanks! [12:25] is there any ncurses-like interface with c++ bindings? [12:25] roffe__, for security reasons the 'current directory' is not in the default PATH of executables. Like it is under windows/dos [12:26] roffe__: np, pwd will print the current working directory (for reference) :) [12:26] there's probably a good reason for that... lame people like me =) [12:27] Arelis: ahh [12:27] thanks... All the info I can get... love it :) [12:27] mjanisz: try a devel channel [12:27] Hey guys [12:27] roffe__: :) [12:27] DistroJockey: so do you know the solution to -THAT- one? [12:27] gregory: that would be #ubuntu-devel? [12:28] Arelis: nope sorry, not even know what nexuiz is yet :) [12:28] DistroJockey: it's a first person shooter game. [12:28] I have a question, I installed ATI drivers and I go to run catalayist center and it says that it can't run.. also I try to run aticonfig --initial in terminal and it can't write to xorg.conf.. it says bad descriptor.. please help here guys [12:28] mjanisz: no, its not for application development [12:28] ikonia: thx got it [12:28] Arelis: thought as much, but nope, sorry === ESCAIX_ is now known as ESCAIX [12:29] mjanisz: how about google: ncurses c++ binding [12:30] that gives me ndk-xx, but it doesnt seem to be any working revision [12:30] what [12:30] latest rev is 0.0.1alpha3 [12:31] therefore i'd like to find something ncurses-like, has to display a simple menu [12:31] mjanisz: changes are not good in this channel [12:33] mjanisz: s/changes/chances [12:33] I have a question, I installed ATI drivers and I go to run catalayist center and it says that it can't run.. also I try to run aticonfig --initial in terminal and it can't write to xorg.conf.. it says bad descriptor.. please help here guys [12:34] hi [12:35] MGS88: wb [12:36] its not work [12:36] MGS88: the drive?

Not sure [12:41] so I've been wondering whether anyone encountered this particular sympthom, 'LINU' looks strangely familiar [12:41] i never use hibernate/suspend [12:41] arvind_k--> then [12:41] MGS88, and paste the output in pastebin [12:41] hmm linu... nah doesn't ring a bell [12:41] !paste [12:41] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel.

[12:48] grom358, that would be difficult [12:48] Hi. I'm trying to setup mythtv but I'm getting the message "CANNOT LOGIN TO DATABASE?" Any idea? [12:48] moya, /join #hardy+1 for hardy discussion please [12:48] grom358, if you have a network of ubutnu machines. it may be worth wile to set up a 'caching server' for the updates. they are stored in /var/cache/apt/ if you wanted to copy them to a dofferent machine you could do that. [12:48] moya, /join #ubuntu+1 for hardy discussion please sorry [12:48] bazhang: actually I don't have wifi setup on this network. So I would only be using the 1 ethernet device [12:48] grom358, ive copied /var/cache/apt/ from one machine to other machines befor. [12:49] manos21: have you asked in #ubuntu-mythtv yet? they really rock in that regard [12:49] grom358: and how would the other computers be connected? [12:49] Dr_willis: yeah I'm trying ubuntu out atm. Just wondering in case I decide to replace gentoo with ubuntu [12:49] Dr_willis: got ubuntu on a VMware install [12:49] bazhan: Thanks. I'll try that [12:50] bazhang: I got all the computers connect to hub. The ADSL modem also connects to the hub. The modem has DHCP server and currently acts as the gateway. But I've been having some network problems and I want to monitor all incoming/outgoing traffic [12:52] bazhang: so what you think? [12:53] \j #linuxac [12:53] \j # linuxac [12:55] grom358: ah act as router; I was immediately thinking of an ad hoc connection device--likely can be done let me check the forums for a sec [12:56] yeah.. so I have it be the router to see all traffic right? [12:56] in other words, there no way to listen to other machines traffic? [12:58] grom358: the links I get are for the computer to act as a wireless hub; not sure what to do in your case--you want to shape traffic or somesuch? [12:58] salut francis [12:58] hi all....

After a while (by mymistake) i started playing around with the option of the S.G.D and ithink i've done it worse..i dont have windows installed only ubuntu but because of playing around some thing might not be what it looks like...a guy on irs told me that i'm missing a partition starting at block 1and ending a [13:00] or background process for that matter [13:00] grom358: you said you saw it at work; any reason not to ask the engineers there how they do it?

[13:04] idefixs, it simply says "Firefox can't find the server at www.google.com." [13:04] bazhang: I want to share it :) [13:04] What the hell?? which guide will I choose?: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/internet/C/connect.html I have a USB DSL modem that uses PPoE...? [13:05] Ausmosis, have you tried other google URLs, like www.google.uk or alike [13:05] The PPoE or USB modem? [13:05] Andrew``: then stick in the ubuntu disk, format the suse partition, install to it and you are good to go [13:05] idefixs, my other computers don't have an issue so my router is fine. [13:05] hello [13:05] Yazan`: USB ADSL first, but may aswell look at both [13:05] this that italian ? [13:05] haven't tried the uk versions but the au version does the same thing [13:06] Ausmosis, not saying it's your router. could be a DNS setup problem on your box [13:06] miclen: you wish the italian ubuntu channel? [13:06] What is the best codec for playback of x264 video files? [13:06] bazhang: I understand that.. what I want to know is.. how do I format the external so it isuable by both OS's [13:06] Ausmosis, ok [13:06] just tried uk and get the same response :( [13:07] really strange as this only started yesterday as well. Prior to that I had no issues.

[13:08] x264 [13:09] cause I'm starting to think compiling everything is not worth the (small?) performance increase [13:09] Could someone recommend a GUI application where I can (1) specify a list of file paths, (2) save these file paths, and (3) with the click of a "Backup Now" button copy all of these files to a specified directory? Thanks. [13:09] DistroJockey, pinging google is fine :) [13:09] bazhang: You speak for yourself, I've never used Gentoo, although I did use Slackware for my 1st 6 months of linux experience :) [13:09] DJones: just kidding; my bad ;] [13:09] Ausmosis: what IP number does it give? [13:09] do you can go to room [13:09] bazhang, well yeah me too i started right off with ubuntu [13:09] grom358, I got sick of the compiling and to be honest I feel the speed with Ubuntu is even better than gentoo [13:10] DistroJockey, 64.233.187.99 [13:10] bazhang: I guessed that :) [13:10] just getting the offtopic out of my system before release week ;] [13:10] Ausmosis: would you consider that 4 years glorious with linux [13:10] Ausmosis, same as i get - DNS is fine [13:10] Ausmosis: nods, not the hosts file then I guess [13:11] bazhang: I have no idea.. only got it tonight [13:11] I guess maybe windsows [13:11] MGS88, have you registered yourself [13:11] Ausmosis, try http://64.233.187.99 [13:11] thats google [13:11] bazhang: my other option is to use my brother's windows box as the router cause it has 2 network devices [13:11] Anyone knows a solution for my problem can help me here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=757191 [13:11] also, is there a list of what programs come with ubuntu? [13:11] idefixs, using the ip address works. wtf!!! [13:11] lol [13:11] lol [13:12] grom358: all the more compelling reason to get your situation fixed here [13:12] maybe you didnt set your dns ? [13:12] This is getting more confusing. [13:12] linuxcbon, apparently he/she did [13:12] Andrew``: it is a long list; unless you mean by default [13:12] arvid_k-->what you mean [13:13] bazhang: what comes on the CD/DVD? [13:13] bazhang: any hope? [13:13] actually what I would really like is to have some sort of QoS so I can give certain packets higher priority [13:13] Hi. I have a pctv 310e tv tuner and I'm frustrated as long as I cannot find any drivers for linux. Is thera any possibility to make it? [13:13] Ausmosis, try googling for google and click a link with google.com in it... [13:13] jane_weidlin, Considering I been using linux since 1995... the 4 years were torture lol... well actually it was fun but I now need more time to do real stuff instead of tweaking my systems [13:14] MGS88, i sent you a PM....well get yourself registered .... jus type /msg nickserv register [13:14] MGS88, do that in the server window not here :) [13:14] Andrew``: if you dont know then the external drive is likely either fat32 or ntfs; and as far as the cd/dvd there is big difference--best to run the live cd and see for yourself--way too much to paste here ;] [13:14] idefixs, just tried that and end result is the same error again [13:15] strange how the IP works yet nameserver doesn't [13:15] bazhang: is there not a www link to the list? [13:15] Ausmosis, then i have no clue what this problem is. a workaround: make a bookmark to the IP [13:15] grom358: sounds like traffic shaping [13:15] yeah thats what I am going to do for now :) [13:15] Andrew``: never thought to find out when I could just boot the livecd ;] [13:15] you have dhcp ? what is your /etc/resolv.conf [13:16] Could someone recommend a GUI application where I can (1) specify a list of file paths, (2) save these file paths, and (3) with the click of a "Backup Now" button copy all of these files to a specified directory? Thanks. [13:16] linuxcbon, you talking to me? [13:16] bazhang: yeah.. I would like to setup that. But my immediate goal is to monitor the traffic so I can check for spyware/viruses/ or background downloading [13:16] yes aus [13:16] hello [13:16] does someone know a place where I can find a .deb for clamav-0.93 ?

This happens on both my internal and external harddrive, i am currently defragging my internal as it is very very fragmented, so i suspect thats the problem, but my external isnt fragmented at all, and it is nearly completely on the "left" of the disk and I still get the erro [14:13] Flyzoola: sudo mount -o rw,remount /media/disk/ <<< that's it yes [14:14] Any ideas why I am getting: Failed to modify password entry for user username error whenever I use smbpasswd -a username ? [14:16] if i upgrade my bios then my lice cd will work [14:16] DracoZA: can it talk to the samba backend ? [14:16] erUSUL: ok, so I typed in that command, what exactly did it do? and can i type in sudo rm -r /media/disk/.Trash-root now ? [14:17] ikonia: will the tftp method work with a desktop live cd or do i only need the alternate cd? [14:17] Flyzoola: it remounted (hopefully) the filesystem read write you have to be able to write to delete files (you can not delete on a cdrom; can you?) [14:17] sdakak: should work with any pxe image you create [14:17] Flyzoola: if that failed we have to find out why the filesystem is mounted read only [14:18] hey.. [14:18] ikonia I can only seem to run the command on users already created [14:18] Hellbound, whats when does the livecd hang? [14:18] erUSUL: what do you mean remove from cdrom? I am trying to delete from a mass storage device. [14:18] DracoZA: ahhh so this is on a new user [14:18] My cron keeps on sending me messages even tough i removed my email address.. [14:18] anybody there [14:19] Flyzoola: it was just an example of a clearly read only filesystem [14:19] ikonia yup, do I have to add the user via users and groups first, I just want to give them remote access [14:19] DracoZA: the password does not relate to real unix users and groups [14:20] any idea where can i find a linker for a ALP to work .... [14:20] ikonia *confused look* how would I go about creating a remote access user then ? [14:20] arvind_k: ld is the linker [14:21] I am trying to use the mkraid command, but it doesn't seem to exist on my ubuntu system, what do I use in place of it? [14:21] erUSUL: ok, so now it's telling me it can't find the deirectory? [14:21] DracoZA: I'm not quite understanding, you do need to have a matching unix account for the samba account [14:21] ikonia, so with nasm i create the .obj's and link them with ld??? and then how do i debug?? [14:21] DracoZA: but the samba password does not link to the unix password [14:21] Flyzoola: can you see it (ls /media/disk/* ) [14:21] ikonia ok that answers my question, the user has to be created and then smbpasswd -a... correct ? [14:22] DracoZA: yes [14:22] arvind_k: its' assembl [14:22] arvind_k: its' assembly [14:22] ikonia thanks [14:22] ikonia will an unprivileged account work fine ? [14:22] ikonia, yeah ... [14:22] arvind_k: you don't have to use a linker, but if you really want to then you can use ld [14:22] ikonia: while following that guide, I can't start my dhcp server. It says "fail" [14:22] LjL: yes, i dont plan to replicate all packages, but the list is very useful [14:22] DracoZA: you'll need to be root and run it [14:22] erUSUL: yes I can, which is why I find it weird that the terminal can't [14:23] sdakak: what does the log say [14:23] Q: My ISP is filtering incoming SSH at the protocol level, what options do I have in Gutsy to defeat that? Maybe tunneling within some other protocol, I guess ... but I'm lacking ideas [14:23] ikonia,well in MASM we use a linker [14:23] arvind_k: try using ld [14:23] Flyzoola: check again you havent' made a typo [14:23] ikonia: where will i find it? [14:23] Toznoshio: ssh is what you use to tunnel [14:23] ikonia, sure === MattJ_ is now known as MattJ [14:23] ikonia sorry I meant the new user, for remote can they be unprivileged [14:23] sdakak: /var/log/messages [14:23] ikonia, thanks [14:23] arvind_k: not a problem (I'm basic with assembly - so I'm not going to be too much use) [14:23] ikonia: Oh it's huge. [14:23] DracoZA: totally [14:24] thx again [14:24] ikonia, yes but nobody can get to my SSH server from the internet is my point [14:24] sdakak: so look through it for stuff relating to dhcp [14:24] ikonia, do you know any channerl around for the help by the way [14:24] Toznoshio: so speak to your isp [14:24] hallo [14:24] arvind_k: no idea of the top of my head [14:24] ikonia, :) i like that subject [14:24] any channel around for ALP [14:25] arvind_k: again no idea, this isn't the best place to ask [14:25] is there a way i can make aterm always on top [14:26] erUSUL: ok, I think I got it. Now i have another question, i tried transfering a folder to the removable drive and it's telling me that I don't have permission to write to that folder. How do I copy the file over?? === Pullarotta is now known as Pullarotta^ [14:26] ikonia: I can't find anything useful. [14:26] ikonia: it doesn't talk about any failure with dhcpd [14:26] Flyzoola: can you paste the output of "cat /proc/mounts" on a pastebin ?? [14:27] sdakak: restart dhcp then look at the bottom of the log [14:27] Alp`: a thing you'd possibly find useful would be also to only list those packages which aren't installed as dependencies of other packages. « deborphan -a » should achieve that [14:27] !paste | Flyzoola [14:27] Flyzoola: 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) [14:27] ggeecko_: right click on the window title then choose stay on top [14:27] (should, not necessarily does...) [14:27] gregory: it is borderless [14:27] so type in cat/proc/mounts? === zo0mguy is now known as Crypto [14:28] it doesn't say anything useful just Apr 17 18:57:48 demo-laptop dhcpd: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Server V3.0.5 [14:28] Apr 17 18:57:48 demo-laptop dhcpd: Copyright 2004-2006 Internet Systems Consortium. and more. === Crypto is now known as zo0mguy [14:29] are all you guys using irc from linux? [14:29] ikonia: ^ [14:29] sdakak: does ps -ef | grep dhcpd show it as running ? [14:29] Flyzoola: yep [14:29] siMN: why you ask ? [14:29] yes, but if i try to start and stop it then both steps say fail. [14:30] sdakak: does ps -ef | grep dhcpd show it as running yes/no ? [14:30] ikonia: yes [14:30] sdakak: ok - so it's running and the problem is the init script doesn't know about it [14:30] ikonia: when i say /etc/init.d/dhcp3-server start|stop both steps say fail. [14:30] ikonia: would a reboot work? [14:30] sdakak: yes, because they don't know it's running, dhcpd-server is just a script [14:31] sdakak: a reboot should put it back to a known status [14:31] Does the swap partition help to do so the partitions doesnt get fragmented? [14:31] ikonia: let me try. [14:31] Spydon: no [14:31] Spydon: no [14:31] Spydon, swap has nothing to do with fragmentation [14:31] LjL: thx [14:31] Lamego, ok thx [14:31] !defrag | Spydon [14:31] Spydon: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed. [14:32] i want to host my website my self. what do i need to iiinstall to make my pc as webserver ? [14:32] user1: apache2 [14:32] user1, apache2 or any other web server available on the repositories [14:32] user1: apache, you also need valid dns setup and an ISP that will allow you to host a website, although your performance will be quite poor [14:32] it depends on your needs [14:32] gregorah apache2 is the latest version? [14:33] ikonia why it will be poor [14:33] user1: what ikonia said is very important [14:33] user1: because you'd be on a home DSL connection, that is not a good setup for webhost [14:33] Lamego what choices for web server apps do i have and what is better [14:33] ikonia you mean slow spped? [14:33] user1: what is better is your personal preference, what you need, only you can asnwer that [14:33] speed* [14:34] user1: yes, speed will be slow, and potentially persistant connections will be unstable [14:34] ikonia i need great veriety of features [14:34] user1: you may also get into trouble and "kicked" off your ISP [14:34] user1: apache; cherokee, lighttp etc... [14:34] user1: be specific [14:34] user1: you will also need a static IP address [14:34] ikonia 'i need an app that has most features' [14:35] not really, he can use a dynamic dns service [14:35] user1: your not making any sense [14:35] ikonia dyndns.com can take care of ips [14:35] ikonia web stats, customisation, etc. [14:35] user1: what is your background with computers? whats your experience? [14:35] i installed flash from a tar.gz file, how do i uninstall it? [14:35] user1: "customisation" is not a requirment, what technologies do you require for your website [14:35] ikonia "featurefull app" is the word [14:35] b4l74z4r: rm it [14:35] user1: that is not a requirment [14:36] ikonia: isn't that sort of webserver setup sufficient for a low hit page where only you and maybe a few (~20 or less) use it? [14:36] ikonia, ld is the linker :) [14:36] ikonia i need all suport for future upgrading. e.g php cgi asp [14:36] user1: I want a recipe, I like a wide varity of food and want something that is full of relevant food === RichardL is now known as rml [14:36] ikonia, i don't know where it is [14:36] user1: that is not a webserver [14:36] b4l74z4r: then your screwed [14:36] b4l74z4r: next time use the package manager [14:36] user1: go away, thank about what technologies your website will require then we can map out the packages [14:37] user1: also firstly, contact your isp and make sure you are allowed to host a website on it [14:37] ikonia i am a newbie [14:37] ikonia isp have no problme [14:37] user1: that doesn't' change anything I've just said [14:37] ikonia what points should i consider to look at then [14:37] ikonia what could be my requirments [14:37] user1: all the points I've listed [14:38] ikonia what could be my requirments [14:38] user1: I don't know your requirments, only YOU know YOUR requirments [14:38] b4l74z4r: is there a read or install file in the gz file that says where it is going to install flash? [14:38] legend2440, no, there was no readme file [14:39] does anyone know of a program that can allow me to save multiple file paths and copy them into another directory with the click of a button? thanks. [14:39] ikonia ok. [14:39] b4l74z4r: check ~/.mozilla/plugins/ and /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ for a libflashplayer.so file. Before deleting, check that 'flashplugin-nonfree' is indeed not installed. If you can't find libflashplayer.so, run 'sudo updatedb && locate libflashplayer.so' === _elemental is now known as mentals_Way [14:39] * Ted` http://ircx.forum0.info/ <--- plz register :) thanx [14:39] ikonia i have talked this before too here. just need to see what you have to say about it : using linux,i have some friends sharing my internet. i have 30k vacant and 3 friends. is there a way that i define the combine band limit for 3 users combined as 30 k . not 10k for each. that way if 2 are online they can share 15k each. and if all 3 are online. they will be spreaded 10k each in managed behaviour. any way.i have a dlink switch. and in futer i may tak [14:39] by wondershaper or ebox. or any other, what i have in mind is 30k for 3 users. if all are online 10k is given to each. if 2 are online 15k to each. 1 then 30k to him. and other 4th user gets 20k seperat dedi bandwidth.. how can i do it?

[14:40] Twim4: curses [14:41] ikonia i want to use my pc as router [14:41] user1: you would be much better off with a hardware solution [14:41] ikonia what do u mean? [14:41] user1, if you really want to attempt this, you can check out m0n0wall, but it can be a pain to get everything up and running [14:42] Twim4: yep [14:42] Twim4: its an ncurses app [14:42] ikonia ok but how can i do it with an app [14:42] erUSUL Lainy wants to do this with mouse on one click [14:42] user1: dedicated to only routing?? then use something like ipcop or zeroshell or untangle [14:43] user1: you would need a qos iptables setup, a router solution for a home setup would be more approrpiate [14:43] CoasterMaster monowall is an app or firewal? [14:43] Twim4: yeah and to be able to save all the file paths..sbackup backups the files into a zip file (which I can't even extract), so that isn't helpful [14:43] Twim4: weel i do not even understand exactly what he wants [14:43] erUSUL hm ya [14:43] b4l74z4r: is this the file you used to install? install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz [14:44] user1, it's a firewall + router app for FreeBSD, it's pretty damn advanced (and I don't know if you can use the computer for things other than a firewall when using it), the website is here http://m0n0.ch/wall/ [14:44] erUSUL: i'd like to specify several file paths and to copy all these files into a directory.. and to be able to save this action so in the future, i can hit a "Backup now" button to copy all those specified files automatically [14:44] hi can anybody help me about instaling wus-300 driver to 7.10 [14:44] ?

[14:49] 你们说什么呢 [14:49] user1: what things? routing?

[14:50] CoasterMaster: I don't think it can link into qos modules though [14:50] CoasterMaster: don't quote me on that though [14:50] hi [14:51] ikonia the routing i mean [14:51] i had to downgrade the latest flash to 0.9.48 in order to get hardware acceleration in fullscreen youtube [14:51] user1: yes it can basic routing [14:51] ikonia which hardware you recomend? [14:51] how do I get permission to write to a folder? Does anybody know the command to get root access in the file browser? it was a sudo, I believe [14:51] ikonia no i mean will it do what i want? [14:52] user1: I don't think so [14:52] gksu/gksudo Flyzoola [14:52] gksudo nautilus ? [14:52] CoasterMaster ikonia thinks monowall wont do the combined band limit thing.. true? [14:53] CoasterMaster: what doing you ask a monowall support group, this conversation really isn't anything to do with ubuntu [14:53] seasurf: for gui apps aye [14:53] 你们说啥呢 [14:54] wangdw201: /join #ubuntu-cn [14:54] o. its the only one i know. ^^ [14:54] wangdw201: this is ubuntu support channel; please join #ubuntu-cn [14:54] Flyzoola: gksudo nautilus [14:54] bazhang: how do I open up the file browser from there? what do I type in program? I typed in "file browser" and terminal said "ERROR: cannot open `browser' (No such file or directory) [14:54] " [14:54] CoasterMaster monowall wont do the combined band limit thing.. true? [14:55] ikonia which hardware you recomend? [14:55] user1: again, I don't have a recommendation, shop around. This isn't really anything to do with ubuntu [14:55] type "gksudo nautilus" in terminal. but becareful of what u edit... [14:55] Flyzoola: gnome file browser name is nautilus [14:55] ikonia which hardware router will do the combine ip band limit? [14:55] thank you guys! :D [14:56] 你们怎都用英语说呢 [14:56] bazhang, late reply but doesn't that just install an entire ubuntu desktop system? [14:56] user1 am I not making myself clear to you ? I don't have a recommendation, and your questions are nothing to do with ubuntu [14:56] bazhang, or is it just the GUI enviroment? [14:56] ikonia ok [14:56] m3333: that would be the full desktop aye [14:57] hi all - I am quite new to ubuntu - i currently have 7.10 installed which I know is non lts - do I consider 8.04 an upgrade or is it a separate product being lts and hence I need to wait for 8.10 or do people upgrade from 7.10 - 8.04 and then onto 8.10 later? [14:57] bazhang, is there anyway to keep the server and just install a GUI over top then? [14:57] wangdw201: 类型对键盘 /join #ubuntu-cn [14:57] m3333: sure that will do it [14:57] erUSUL , which one of these will to the combined band limit? qos with ip tables. or pcop or zeroshell or untangle ? [14:57] CoasterMaster you there? [14:57] user1: again, this is nothing to do with ubuntu [14:58] ikonia it has to do with ubuntu apps [14:58] how do i uninstall wine programs they aren't .msi? should i rm -rf /M$_app_folder or is there a better way? [14:58] nickthorley, you can upgrade to 8.04 if you'd like fright from 7.10 but i'd recommend a fresh install [14:58] user1: check their websites they all have a features page [14:58] user1: no it doesn't [14:58] right* [14:58] bazhang, but will that install like OpenOffice and all the stuff that comes with the usual desktop os? [14:58] ikonia dont answer then :) [14:58] user1: don't ask [14:58] powertool08: Apps>Wine>Uninstall wine software [14:58] user1: get the asus W something or other it does all that you can search for it on asustek site; otherwise head to ##hardware as it is offtopic here thanks [14:58] user1: go to the proper place and research the correcct information [14:58] ikonia iam getting conversations. [14:59] ikonia ok [14:59] user1: if you have specific questions around the configuration of these applications on ubuntu then this channel is the perfect place. [14:59] bazhang ok. [14:59] ikonia iam asking , are those apps configurable for the task iam saying. [14:59] torrentflux can be considered to be safe enough to be deployed over the internet? [14:59] user1: and you've been told that answer [14:59] punzada: is it an upgrade though or is it a different product - should you either stay on .10 releases or .4 releases and not mix the two? [14:59] m3333: you want just a gui? does it have to be gnome/kde? there are others as well you know [14:59] hischild: deployed ? [15:00] hischild: it runs on a local machine [15:00] erUSUL: i'm using kubuntu, do you know where it would be with kde? [15:00] hischild: that local machine NEEDS internet conneciton [15:00] nickthorley, doesn't matter regardless, you can go either way [15:00] bazhang, nope just something that means i dont have to interface with the commandline asmuch [15:00] erUSUL if have recomeneded most of them, you would have been knowing what they can do [15:00] for best support, always try to stick with the newest stable release [15:00] that's my advice [15:00] ikonia its a yes? [15:00] ikonia, i'm using it local and haven't forwarded port 80 on the internet. What i would like to know is if it's safe to forward that one as well so i can control it via the internet. [15:00] user1: please stop asking [15:00] Hello, I am desperately trying to fix my sshd server, it suddenly stopped working with no apparent reason, it is not a router/port forwarding issue since I tried with another computer on my network and it works.. I uninstalled sshd, removed its configuration files, installed it again, the port 22 is opened, I don't know where to look anymore.. [15:01] ikonia k [15:01] hischild: it's as save as your connection [15:01] punzada: i am still unsure - is the natural update from 7.10 8.10? [15:01] m3333: what ever you install can be removed if it is too bloated you know you might want to try fluxbox or xfce for very lightweight [15:01] u can go from 7.10 to 8.04 naturally [15:01] user_1, have you tried to ssh locally ? [15:01] correct [15:01] yes and it works [15:01] powertool08: no; sorry launch from terminal... "wine uninstaller" [15:01] i can second fluxbox [15:01] (waht seasurf said) [15:01] ikonia, ok i' shall rephrase. Are there known security holes in it. [15:01] hischild: is't as "safe" as your connection, eg: http/https username/pass strong [15:01] user1, so it is not an sshd issue [15:01] Lamego: no in fact today it doesn't work sorry [15:01] erUSUL: will do, thanks [15:02] >:/ why does it say that my removable drive is read-only? [15:02] bazhang, fluxbox or xfce? [15:02] user_1, have you tried ssh localhost ? [15:02] Flyzoola: mounted with read only options ? [15:02] bazhang, explain [15:02] ikonia, the passwords from my user are strong enough. [15:02] m3333: those are both window managers [15:02] seasurf: is that a path most people do? I presumed that the .04 releases were mainly for servers being lts and the .10 releases were for workstations so hence I thought I would normally wait for 8.10 but I wasnt sure how it went - I am used to fedora when you just get the latest version as it comes out and centos their server version is separate [15:02] hischild: ok, so it's that safe then, I always use it with ssl though [15:02] Lamego: yes, today, since I added an iptables rule for opening port 22, it says ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused [15:02] ikonia: all I did was plug it in etc. is there a way to mount so that I still edit the files? [15:02] Flyzoola: what file system is on it ? [15:02] nickthorley, you are wrong [15:03] hi [15:03] bazhang, easy to use? and contain a file navigator and a textpad app? [15:03] ikonia: what do you mean? it's the directory is /media/disk-1 [15:03] well... i was using 7.10, then now i'm on the 8.10 beta, and loving it. hm.. it s a natural move [15:03] m3333: xfce much more so; fluxbox requires a bit of fiddling [15:03] ikonia, so it's also accessible via another port? or so i have to change something else for it? [15:03] user_, then your issue is with the iptables config, by default all ports are open, if the problem is after using iptables, you probably blocked [15:03] Flyzoola: no, what file system ext3/fat/ntfs is on the disk [15:03] lemego: ok so most people who are on 7.10 will be installing 8.04 when it is released then [15:03] I am not an iptables expert, sorry :P [15:03] Lamego: but when I type ssh 192.168.1.2 (my IP adress), it works.. [15:03] nickthorley, yes [15:03] hischild: the interface is web site, so http or https [15:04] ikonia I don't know:/ is there a way to check? [15:04] bazhang, im guesing apt-get install xfce to use xfce? [15:04] user_1: your file wall is the proble, [15:04] nickthorley: if they choose to upgrade then that is the next step yes [15:04] user_1, presunably you blocked incoming connections to 127.0.0.1 [15:04] Hi, when i use "ifconfig" i get two devices eth0 and eth0:avh, I need eth0 to have the IP address, but it goes to eth0:avh, how do I stop this? [15:04] is there any legal way to play drm'ed wmv's on linux? [15:04] ikonia, ok so if i use port 443 instead of 80 it'll also work. Correct? [15:04] Flyzoola: you must know what file system you formated the disk with [15:04] Ayabara, install windows :p [15:04] Ayabara, kidding [15:04] hischild: if your webserver is set up to host https [15:04] m3333: :-) [15:04] i wouldn't consider the 04's and 10's to be separate.. does that help? [15:04] hi there [15:04] Ayabara: no - as thats the point of drm [15:04] Flyzoola: sudo fdis -l in terminal [15:04] ikonia, alright, that'll do just fine. Thank you for your help. [15:04] Flyzoola: sudo fdisk -l in terminal [15:05] legend2440: thats not going to show a file system [15:05] !xfce [15:05] hischild: no problem [15:05] m3333: not sure about the very minimum; normally one does xubuntu-desktop but that might be more than you want [15:05] Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME.

[15:05] seasurf: yes it does thanks - so .04 is really a steping block to 8.10 then basically but obviously it will be supported for longer - so really the choice is to stay on the lts and have longer release cycles or keep updating every time a .04 or .10 comes out to stay the most upto date [15:06] legend2440, what infomation do I need from that command?? [15:06] nickthorley: no, 8.04 nd 8.10 are totally seperate releases [15:06] Flyzoola: none, that command will not help you [15:06] ikonia: thats what I thought but am I not being told different by the others - I am confused [15:07] yes. for me.. the 10 is very stable, and i usually get help from the forums n irc so - no worries so far =) [15:07] ikonia, hmm well. I must be ntfs [15:07] Flyzoola: why must it be ? [15:07] Flyzoola: ikonia is right is doesn't show filesystem info. is this a usb hdd? [15:07] nickthorley: next release is lts, 8.10 is not; simple [15:07] nickthorley, how about the release date is year month therefore they are seperate [15:07] nickthorley, erm, each release is a tottaly different release, there is no specific relation with the release month [15:07] ikonia: because as far as I know that's what my computer is [15:08] Flyzoola: ok, so you need to use ntfs-3 to mount it read/write [15:08] !ntfs-3g > Flyzoola [15:08] Flyzoola: check the link from ubotu [15:08] ok thanks all - sorry for stupid questions just trying to get into the ubuntu file release cycle from redhat/fedora's [15:08] don't worry.. just upgrade =D heh. [15:08] seasurf: thats not always sage advise from an lts release. [15:09] seasurf: i dont see the point though i may as well just move to version 8.10 and miss out 8.04 [15:09] that's true. [15:09] nickthorley: 8.04 is a different kettle of fish, they are different releases, not sequential like fedora [15:09] see you in six months nickthorley [15:09] ikonia [15:09] Flyzoola: what / [15:10] hey guys i cannot play vbr mp3 in a good way with player that use gstreamer, i get a bumpy sound. PLEASE HELP [15:10] I got no link *sorry for double line* [15:10] 8.04 is really nice [15:10] definitely [15:10] nickthorley, and what do you expect to gain from skipping 8.04 ?

[15:12] nickthorley, if you want to keep a "stable" (old) system, you should install 8.04 since it's an LTS release (supported for 3 years) [15:12] nickthorley, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic [15:12] nickthorley: join #ubuntu-offtopic [15:12] if tou want to have am updated system, then you should upgrade at earch release [15:12] ubuntu release schedule is ot :) ?

[15:55] BVBBQ: you should back up your stuff even if you find a way to do it [15:56] LadyNikon, i dont have a backup drive and one of the many problems with my current system is that it refuses to recognise my cd drive [15:56] BVBBQ: next time consider having a separate partition for /home, perhaps [15:57] LjL, well, when i first started using ubuntu i was a complete novice. now im a bit smarter [15:58] BVBBQ: well, while it's certainly possible (at least using the alternate cd) to reinstall while keeping files, it's definitely something where one can mess up easily. [15:58] hmm, for that i would need to cd. [15:58] of which i cannot burn without the computer recognizing the drive. [15:58] such is life [15:59] BVBBQ: well, why do you want to reinstall ubuntu, anyway? [16:00] because my kernel is FUBARed and is just generally crippled [16:00] BVBBQ: caused by what? [16:00] LjL, a now ex girlfriend [16:00] BVBBQ: ok, what happened specifically though? [16:01] is it really true that a linux filesystem does not need defragmentation? [16:01] LjL, im not sure how she did it. but ubuntu doesnt recognize my cd drive, the graphics card drivers arent working properly, its now slow as hell, etc etc [16:01] I'm trying to get my work deploy an Ubuntu server however they are scared of the CLI and I am not good enough to make it look easy. Their fear is what if I leave? No one will know what to do with it. [16:01] i have switched to kubuntu for 2 months but i'm still not used to this fact [16:01] yao_ziyuan: ext3 yes [16:01] !defrag | yao_ziyuan [16:01] yao_ziyuan: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed. [16:02] Any recommendations on a GUI for the server? [16:02] ReiserFS <3 [16:02] DFM: you can choose gnome or kde; there are others as well [16:02] Dunno why the ext3 is still default [16:03] so there wouldnt by any chance be some highly risky method of wiping out my os and reinstalling it without a cd [16:03] hi can I Edit files on ubuntu already installed by live CD [16:03] I installed urxvt but there is no man urxvt. How do I install it? Thanks. [16:04] I figured as much but if I choose one won't they load all the extra stuff that I don't need? [16:04] BVBBQ: how much do you have to back up data-wise [16:04] bazhang, were looking at about 60 gigs of music [16:04] BVBBQ: i'd recommend 1) making sure your /etc/apt/sources.list is sane (pastebin if you want) - 2) reinstalling the packages "ubuntu-desktop" and "linux" - 3) installing the package "debsums", and running "sudo debsums -s g", which will list files that don't correspond to what should be in their package (pastebin output if unclear) [16:04] DFM: I thought the concern was with the co workers not being able to use cli? if you mean open office or other stuff just remove it === mojo__ is now known as mojo [16:05] LjL, that's a start. [16:05] Lainy: try man rxvt-unicode or something like that [16:06] That is the concern and I know I can remove packages. I myself just want to install the minimum needed to setup and configure it then make changes as needed. [16:06] Good morning. Am I in the right place for an AWK question? [16:06] DFM: well only you can tell what that 'minimal' threshold is [16:06] Trying to strip VT220 control characters from a session capture. [16:07] Would you recommend installing the actual server and then use synaptic to install gnome? [16:07] Particularly, this sequence: ESC[xx;xxH [16:08] Where xx is either a 1 or 2 digit number [16:08] DFM: you might want to look at the series the perfect server done on all the major distros; search terms: ubuntu gutsy perfect server [16:08] DFM: consider using aptitude to install gnome, as its unused dependencies handling is more tested than apt's [16:08] is I can Edit files on ubuntu installed by live CD [16:08] Well my / partition on ubuntu studio 7.10 install just crapped itself. would not boot, claiming sync errors and kernel panick attmepting to load libc6.so or some such. Great timing too, as I was just fixing to back up the package list and /etc after reading about it yesterday. Figures. Well, fsck "fixed" the part (ext3), but it still won't boot. QUESTION: How do I get a package list off that installation? I am booted to an older ins [16:08] tall (7.04, regular ubuntu). Also, if it matters, the crapped root was amd64 arch, and the old one was i386. [16:09] Hi, if my windows partition is fragmented, and im trying to resize it to a smaller size, will the new partition for linux manage to take up free space if it is fragmented, or does all the freespace have to be in one place? [16:09] OllieH: needs to be contiguous [16:09] aptitude install gnome-desktop? [16:09] can someone help me to fix OpenGL Direct Rendering please? [16:10] DFM: that would be gnome-desktop-environment [16:10] DFM: (by the way, how would you "install the actual server" and *then* use *synaptic*...? synaptic without a GUI? :P) [16:10] hello, would like to ask for some help - i cannot set correct resolution for my widescreen lcd [16:10] thought so.. thats probably the problem then.... how do I get the free space contiguous, because I keep defragging on windows and it doesnt seem to help the free space, but the files become defragged which I guess is what its meant to do [16:10] well duh [16:11] * mojo hangs head in dread [16:11] didn't think that through did i? lol [16:11] OllieH: when you defrag, try getting hold of the demo version of "perfectdisk 8" or something similar, that can be set to defrag properly and to consolidate free space, however, take a backup regardless, windows defrag doesn't consolidate the free space [16:11] DFM: you might need to install Xorg separately, besides [16:11] how can I change my tmp dir to another disk? [16:11] okay thanks [16:12] X is where I have had problems in the past. I'm afraid I won't be able to get Xorg installed and configured for the gui to work [16:12] I'm running out od disk space and I would like to temporarily make another disk my /tmp for a while, and then change it back [16:13] buenas [16:13] nevem--> go system>preferences>screen resolution [16:13] tengo un problema [16:14] ubuntu espanol? [16:14] si espa;ol [16:14] hi [16:14] !es [16:14] Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda. [16:14] ubuntu /j #ubuntu-es gracias [16:15] komputes: just mount the other disk on /tmp (and hope no files in /tmp are being used ;) [16:15] hi [16:15] is I can Edit files on ubuntu installed by live CD [16:15] it's posible to install a driver ati-driver-installer-8.41.7-x86.x86_64 in laptop with Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7300 @ 2.00GHz [16:15] ??? [16:15] hello again! would like to ask for some help - cannot set correct resolution for widescreen lcd [16:15] DFM: nowadays it should be the package "xorg", i think, that gives you a working x [16:15] (or x-window-system which only depends on xorg anyway) [16:15] ? For ease of use would it be easier to just install Ubuntu desktop, remove what i don't want then configure the services I need? [16:16] nevem--> go system>preferences>screen resolution [16:16] LjL, noob question, how do i reinstall [16:16] DFM: always best to listen to LjL [16:16] DFM: depends. if there's many things that you don't won't, that might end up being a lengthy process [16:16] BVBBQ: uh - you mean generally speaking? you boot from the CD and install, just as you did the first time [16:16] cant boot from the cd as i dont have one [16:16] lost it somewhere [16:16] MGS88 the needed resolution is not available [16:16] BVBBQ: err, then you don't reinstall [16:17] BVBBQ: have you tried following the steps i gave you? i don't think reinstalling is necessary [16:17] hi! how do i get rid of package dependency in UBUNTU?? [16:17] LjL, i checked the sources list, nothing but the standard stuff. [16:17] echelon_: elaborate [16:17] so, i installed hardy. And now all mp3's play reaylly bad. The sound scratcheds and skips. Anyone know the reason? ogg plays fine [16:17] Thats why I am having a problem deciding. I want to install a server and I can't learn if always try to find an easier way. [16:17] echelon_: get rid of? please clarify [16:17] BVBBQ: ah you have security and updates enabled for all components? (main restricted universe multiverse) [16:17] I stop here (ask some pro) [16:18] tuna #ubuntu+1 please [16:18] LjL, yep. [16:18] BVBBQ: ok, what about debsums? [16:18] LjL, havent gotten to that. installing now [16:18] to make it stop telling me to install such and such packages before i installing the intended package [16:18] I don't really need a LAMP. Is having a LAMP out of the box the only advantage to installing the server? [16:19] echelon_: that sounds like the recipe for a really broken system [16:19] echelon_, if a package has dependencies, it means it needs those dependencies. [16:19] are there source builds for deb packages? [16:19] are you install your video card ? [16:19] DFM: not if you don't need LAMP. [16:19] like rpm src builds? [16:19] LjL, says that the package G is not installed [16:19] I'm running Ubuntu Gutsy Server. Today I did an `apt-get update`/`apt-get upgrade` (which upgraded apache, php, linux-headers, and some other stuff) and I restarted my system. Now, Apache doesn't seem to start up. `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start` gives me an "OK" with no errors, but the website gives a "connection refused" (even when browsing localhost) and when I try `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart` or `stop` it says "httpd (no pid file) not runn [16:19] ing" [16:20] BVBBQ: ? [16:20] my video card is fine - i think [16:20] rylan@rylan-desktop:~$ sudo debsums -s gdebsums: package g is not installed [16:20] anyone? [16:20] BVBBQ: debsums -s -g [16:20] like srpm for debs?? === bekim is now known as bzvz [16:20] MGS88: have i965, is detected and the correct driver is applied [16:21] So if I don't need LAMP I just need basic file and print sharing I should install a desktop version for ease of use? [16:21] !source > echelon_ (echelon_, see the private message from Ubotu) [16:21] LjL, debsums running [16:21] thanks [16:21] Witam, czy mógł by mi ktoś polecić kamerkę internetową do 100, tak abym z nią nie walczył pod ubuntu ?? [16:22] LjL: i know how to get a package source.. i meant a source build file? [16:22] you know source rpms? [16:22] DFM, there's nothing you "should" do. it depends on your goals. "for ease of use", yes, a desktop version is obviously easier to use. but earlier you were saying your goal was to have something minimal. you need to decide yourself [16:22] Need help, the situation: i965 video card, 1280x800@60 lcd screen, the highest resolution ubuntu offers is 1024x768 for some reason - any idea? [16:22] echelon_: no [16:23] Could someone explain what the a and b mean in this color config:"rgb:90/a0/b0" [16:23] I thought there could only be numbers in RGB format. [16:23] anyone have any idea why locking my screen locks my computer up every other try or so? [16:23] Lainy: that's probably hexadecimal [16:23] nevem: what about sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg did you try that? answer the default when you dont know [16:23] LjL: THanks. [16:23] I agree that I need to make the decision. I'm just trying to get an understanding of the benefits of installing the server. I appreciate your input. [16:24] bazhang: did that, no luck [16:24] DFM, the Server Edition (not to be confused with installing a "server" package selection from the alternate CD) has a different kernel. of course nothing stops you, i guess, from installing that kernel on the desktop edition (but then nothing stops you from installing "ubuntu-desktop" on the server edition) [16:24] nevem: how about pastebinning your xorg.conf [16:24] !minimal > DFM (DFM, see the private message from Ubotu) this is something that might come in handy, anyway, if you don't want to download N different CD's while still not sure what to use [16:25] thanks LjL [16:25] <||bass> i thought RC1 was supposed to be today [16:25] !andLinux > dmsuperman [16:25] bazhang: please explain pastebinning... do not understand the word [16:25] !pastebin | nevem [16:25] nevem: 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) [16:25] DFM: remember that even with no GUI, you can just install irssi and join this channel, and ask how to get Xorg running. [16:25] try Administration>Screens and Graphics [16:25] ||bass: tomorrow and discussed in #ubuntu+1 [16:25] /msg nickserv link niuq niuq [16:26] I'm running Ubuntu Gutsy Server. Today I did an `apt-get update`/`upgrade` (which upgraded apache, php, linux-headers, and some other stuff) and I rebooted. Now, Apache doesn't seem to start up. `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start` gives me an "OK" with no errors, but the process doesn't seem to be running. When I try `sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart` or `stop` it says "httpd (no pid file) not running" Any ideas? [16:26] <||bass> moved back to tomorrow? what a drag [16:26] hi, all! does anyone know why WEBMIN is not in the reps? is it a license problem?? [16:26] niuq_: change it (and i wouldn't recommend using the same password as the nickname) [16:26] ebox is the ubuntu way openSea [16:26] lol [16:26] hello [16:26] LjL: ok [16:26] !identify > niuq_ (niuq_, see the private message from Ubotu) [16:26] Bananobot: look into /var/log/apache2/error.log or what is its name and see reason, why it did terminate [16:27] Bananobot: ps aux |grep apache show anything? [16:27] LjL: thank you :) [16:27] [Thu Apr 17 07:38:14 2008] [error] (9)Bad file descriptor: apr_socket_accept: (client socket) [16:28] niuq_: change it...

[16:28] i got a question [16:28] ok i got ati sapphire x1550 + ubuntu 7.10 i installed the restricted drivers automatic when i try to put better visual effects it says "the composite extension is not available", im a new in linux and i dont know what to do [16:29] BVBBQ: then pastebin. [16:29] LjL: done :) [16:29] LjL, http://pastebin.com/d279622c [16:29] ive got a simple problem. ive added Dwell Click panel applet to my panel, now i cant use it or remove it [16:29] 7 days to hour X =) [16:30] Bananobot: well that tells you no apache process is presently running. But I am not sure if it is going to show if you have no connects. I am not sure but i think apache2 gets launched by another daemon when an incoming connection comes, iirc [16:30] BVBBQ: ok, start by typing « sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic linux-image-2.6.22-14-386 » [16:30] Bananobot: o/c you tried connecting locally (http://127.0.0.1/ or http://localhost) to no avail? [16:30] mojo: no, that is wrong, apache2 is normal daemon with many threads [16:31] nevem: how did you install driver? there seems to be a problem with your modelines what about sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg [16:31] pihhan: okay, well i couldn't remember. maybe it is proftpd that does it that way [16:31] can someone help me with at problem? [16:31] i had to download an old version of wine-0.9.58 instead of the latest to correct a warcraft bug. i now have the dir sitting on my desktop, how do i install it? [16:31] i think it is the source code [16:31] http://i26.tinypic.com/2a5n1xl.png [16:31] Bananobot: check logs at /var/log/apache2, check apache -S, if it wont report configuration file error [16:31] LjL, oh yeah i forgot to mention. i cant even use the newest kernel of ubuntu. just doesnt startup on my comp [16:31] bazhang: did that but i try again and post the results again [16:31] apache2 -S for apache 2 :) [16:32] has the release candidate been released yet for hardy? [16:32] Hello everyone. For some reason my desktop manager won't run, when I start the computer I first see the "ubuntu" screen with the progress bar, but then it enters text-mode. I am running irssi from terminal right now. Anyone have any idea why graphic mode won't work?(gutsy) [16:32] nevem: how did you install the driver [16:32] Anyone know how to get a package list off a borked / install? The drive had errors and now won't boot, though it was "fixed" with fsck and is mountable when booting another partiton as root. [16:32] BVBBQ: that would be 2.6.22-14? [16:32] tatters: #ubuntu+1 please [16:32] vlad: just ask the question, don't ask to ask; someone will see it if they know they' ll answer [16:32] Skalle: we dont know, but you can read something about it in /var/log/Xorg.0.log [16:33] Skalle, there is a log file somewhere you can check [16:33] hello there. I use kde and when I try to add .mkv file into new data dvd project with k3b, which is bigger than 4gb I get message: It is not possible to add files bigger than 4,0 GB How can I add files bigger than 4gb in k3b ? [16:33] LjL, im using one that is 2 versions old. [16:33] mojo: cat /var/lib/dpkg/status | grep "install ok" -B 1 | grep Package [16:33] BVBBQ: well, that 2.6.22-14 doesn't work is not surprising, given the modules are broken. the command i gave you above might fix it [16:33] Do I choose SMARTPlacement or consolidate free space? [16:33] LjL, well thats a pretty good start to things then. [16:34] OllieH: for what program [16:34] mojo: dpkg-query -W might report installed packages, but i believe there is some better way i never tried [16:34] LjL: Thanks... is that giving me the same list as that dpkg-list (or whatever) command? a list I can use to re-config a new install to the same packages? [16:34] LjL, might not have to wipe the computer afterall. [16:34] i got ati x1550 pro with restricted drivers intalled when i try to put normal or extra visual effects it says the composite extension is not available how can i fix that [16:34] bazhang: PerfectDisk 2008 [16:34] hi everyone. i want to ask one question. I have a pixelview playtv pro and when i load bttv with card=37 everything seems to work but there's no IR device in /proc/bus/input/devices, but if i load it with other option for example card=50 IR device appears in /proc/bus/input/devices but there's no sound or video is only black and white. what sould i do ? [16:34] thanks, I'll check the log file, I have to go but I'll be back later.... [16:34] Hi. I found the webpage fro 8.04 RC but the download links point to the beta iso's. Are the RC iso's not yet uplaoded ? [16:35] OllieH: that is linux or windows? [16:35] pihhan: yeah, the dpkg-query thing i know works on your active installation, but i hope to extract the list from a error-recovered/non-bootable linux root partiton (not active root) [16:35] i had to download an old version of wine-0.9.58 instead of the latest to correct a warcraft bug. i now have the dir sitting on my desktop, how do i install it? [16:35] Can anyone help me ? [16:35] mojo: you can always use chroot /your/broken/system and do commands there [16:35] BVBBQ: now type also the following command [16:35] BVBBQ: sudo apt-get --reinstall install acetoneiso2 at base-files bc binutils binutils-static bogofilter bzip2 dc dosfstools easycam ed frostwire g++ gaim gij gnupg gpgv initscripts iproute klogd lastfm libaudio2 libbz2-1.0 libbz2-dev libdb4.2 libdb4.3 libdb4.4 libdb4.5 libfontconfig1 libgdbm3 libglib2.0-cil libgnomevfs2-common libgsm1 libgstreamer0.10-0 libhal1 libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libncursesw5 libvte-common linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic linux-image-2.

[16:36] pihhan: thing that might hold that up is the "broken" is amd64 arch, and i am running i386 arch for the "recovery" === tobias_ is now known as tobias [16:36] vlad: in terminal gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf at very bottom of xorg file check Option "Composite" "Enable" make sure it is enabled [16:36] LjL, thanks, im still waiting for the download. im in china and internet here is terrible [16:37] BVBBQ: if it complains that some packages are not available, then remove such packages from the command [16:37] hi [16:37] mojo: dont know, try it and see what happens [16:37] BVBBQ: it will take a while.

[16:37] kk [16:37] LjL, i have plenty of time [16:37] vlad, tommm' s answer was probably right, but is dangerous to edit xorg.conf, easy to break things; do some google 'ing on ATI and XORG, do some study, see if you understand and try from there, if there's no better answer here; but keep trying, someone might know better solution.

[17:08] linux__alien: very little. some time to fix a few more bugs. [17:08] WrOnKeR: probably you have to connect audio-out from tv-card to line-in on soundcard with cable; did you ? [17:09] WrOnKeR: Have You checked configuration of sound server in TVtime? I haven't used that, but there should be something like that. Check also the settings of mixer, take a look at what input and output you have active and what is the sound level on each. === _peda_ is now known as WrOnKeR [17:10] skarface, that means can i download the release candidate and install it in my system ? [17:10] nevem: have you tried enabling desktop effects with that card? [17:10] Leeuw: Yes, i did [17:10] skarface, i ve a laptop which i use daily [17:10] for my work [17:10] then is line volume on mixer open ?

[17:12] skarface: im using php and mysql with apache [17:12] Input source is : Line [17:12] and everything is activated [17:13] vandal2: right... well you could fix that by adding www-data to the mysql users with no password, but it looks like bad coding to me. [17:13] hello [17:13] i am unable to install java in my AMD 64 bits [17:13] how can i do that? [17:13] and on full volume [17:13] Is anybody here familiar with using the "smartctl" command to help diagnose a SMART enabled hard drive? [17:13] Have anyone any experience with wacom Bamboo One with Gutsy. This hell-machine is refusing to cooperate:) [17:13] bazhang: yes [17:13] vandal2: [17:13] but still no sound... sec, i'll be back in 2 mins [17:13] !java > elhoir (read the private message from ubotu) [17:14] i added www-data to the list with no password then i got the error "cannot connect to DB".

Cheers [17:14] please tell me if i delete /home/crazytalk/.wine/ after uninstalling it from applications > add/remove will it delete all the wine settings so i can do a fresh install? [17:14] is your script me thinks [17:14] vandal2: Its a MySQL password/access thing, you've gotta login to MySQL and create your users (and give them privs and stuff) [17:14] hello, i just debootstrapped hardy but it wont boot. kernel initializes haw and just when normally init begins its work, nothing happens. any ideas? [17:14] vandal2, you need to add a user to the mysql database named www-data with a password as defined in your php script [17:15] re [17:15] nevem: well I have to go good luck with getting that fixed--you might want to outline what you did to the next person who helps you--here are a couple of links explaining why that 'wont work' as you said: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=3560572 [17:15] vandal2: or another username, it need not be www-data, because you login with an arbitrary user/pass combo [17:15] http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=580731 and here nevem [17:16] unop, flannel and skarface - im just going to go and double check the script etc Cheers for the help [17:16] thanks bazhang [17:16] Anybody have working Wacom Bamboo tablet with Gutsy?

[17:17] when i connect to a wireless connection with ubuntu, the connection is ridiculoulsy slow 12.1kb, when it try it with windows on the same computer, the connection is fine. [17:17] what's up with ubuntu ? [17:17] hi I want to reinstall grub by live cd but it cant mount select partition [17:17] WrOnKeR: can you try to see if you get sound from tv card using headphones. if you do then the problem is not with card but settings in tvtime or alsa or your sound card [17:18] yes, i get sound! [17:18] LjL: thnks for the help. I made a list with the command you said, and made another list using a different method: dpkg --get-selections --admindir=/media/Ubuntu\ Studio\ AM/var/lib/dpkg |grep -v deinstall >amd64.list [17:18] WrOnKeR: then try the suggestion way back from snake-something, configure sound-server in options, don't ask me how though... ;-) [17:19] ikonia: Are You there? [17:19] LjL: the second way should let me dpkg --set-selections using the text file as input, and then use deselect to install them [17:20] ^dselect [17:20] can i manually edit my applications bar? [17:20] Leeuw: SnakeArt, if You please:) [17:20] to remove a dir with dead shortcuts inside it? [17:20] crazytalk: right click it and choose "edit" [17:20] hello, i just debootstrapped hardy but it wont boot. kernel initializes the hardware and just when normally init normally begins its work, nothing happens. any ideas? [17:20] yeah, snakeart... [17:20] magnetron: i don't get anythhing when i right click the dir [17:20] WrOnKeR: so if you plug speakers directly into line out on tv card you get sound? [17:21] SnakeArt: can you tell him/her how ? [17:21] anyone know a good DVD player for ubuntu? [17:21] yea [17:21] !hardy > vvd [17:21] magnetron: i don't want to edit the props of the shortcuts, i want to remove the entire wine dir. i have already physically removed it from my home dir [17:21] whitekidney: i tend to use vlc 99% of the time [17:21] vlc doesnt work, it crashes. [17:21] crazytalk: right click the menu title "applications" [17:21] How can I install MySQL from Gutsy in Edgy via apt-get? [17:21] it locks up when i load /media/dvdrom0 [17:21] Leeuw: Yeah. [17:21] hi I want to reinstall grub by live cd but it cant mount selected partition [17:21] whitekidney: totem. [17:21] sudo apt-get totem ? [17:21] magnetron: tyvm :) [17:22] whitekidney: no, it's installed by default [17:22] doh [17:22] whitekidney: on any dvd or just that one? or does it crash always? vlc is very stable for me, and my brother who uses the windows release [17:22] WrOnKeR: and you can hear mp3's or other sound files if you play them on computer? [17:22] yes, i do [17:22] LoPMX: go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/apacheMySQLPP [17:22] mojo : it always crashes, it works in windows, but aint working in linux. [17:22] magnetron: is it possible to delete a dir in edit or can i only just disable showing them? [17:22] when i connect to a wireless connection with ubuntu, the connection is ridiculoulsy slow 12.1kb, when it try it with windows on the same computer, the connection is fine. It worked fine on ubuntu on the same laptop yesterday. I tried to connect to wireless at a supermarket, the connection was crap, now i bring the laptop home and i get the same issue ... [17:22] magnetron : how do i open dvd's with totem? [17:23] LoPMX: url should end SQLPHP [17:23] WrOnKeR: what brand tv out card? [17:23] can anyone think of what might be the issue ? [17:23] yeah got it [17:23] !dvd | whitekidney [17:23] whitekidney: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs [17:23] whitekidney: ugh. tried in totem or mplayer? have libdecssv2 or whatever it's called (library to de-CSS (content scramble system) the drive. [17:23] magnetron: right click on delte on each dir does nothing [17:23] I want to reinstall grub by live cd but it cant mount selected partition [17:23] pinnacle [17:24] WrOnKeR: you can also try KDE-tv, maybe that will work, is a more elaborate program with wizards and stuff; worth a try... [17:24] sup? [17:24] whitekidney: due to some crazy laws in USA, ubuntu cannot ship dvd support by default. ubotu gave you some info about how to install it manually [17:24] vandal2: Ok cool, but I know how to install MySQL, but on edgy i get version 5.0.24, and I would like to install newer package from gutsy - 5.0.45 [17:25] hmm k, but i also tried xawtv, didn't work neither [17:25] what application supports importing photos [17:25] not sure [17:25] from a camera connected to usb [17:25] WrOnKeR: Go to gnome-volume-control. You should see some sliders named mic, surround, etc. (don't know your sound configuration and type of soundcard). You should enable all with full volume up, and then disable one by one until You will hear silence. That's the simpliest way. [17:25] harveyd: f-spot [17:25] f-spot is being crappy with me [17:26] Anybody familiar with using the "smartctl" command? [17:26] how do i find the gnome-volume-control? double click on the little speaker symbol? [17:26] magnetron: the wine dir no longer shows up on my application bar, but it's still in the edit application bar applet. it will not let me delete the dirs and programs, only uncheck them to stop them showing. is there a workaround? [17:27] magnetron: it has gone, i had to restart edit app menu a few times, tyvm [17:27] pleas any one: I want to reinstall grub by live cd but it cant mount selected partition [17:27] WrOnKeR: Try it, or You can simply type in terminal gnome-volume-control. Try both. [17:27] * crazytalk cheers and loves ubuntu again [17:28] crazytalk: when you uninstalled it with synaptic, you should choose "uninstall completely". that will remove all settings and similar [17:28] magnetron : i cant make it work, how come ? [17:28] ive installed all the codecs, but i still miss some. [17:28] whitekidney: you need to follow the instructions carefuly, including installing the libdvdcss3 package. it's not in the ubuntu repositories [17:28] everything is activated, but still don't hear sound [17:28] oh snap. [17:29] im new to linux [17:29] BTW: Is there someone with working Bamboo tablet with Gutsy here? [17:29] whitekidney: it's the american laws that imposes this requirement [17:29] magnetron: i didn't have that option because i uninstalled via applications menu add/remove. i am learning that the synaptic package manager is a much better utility [17:30] WrOnKeR: go to system>preferences>sound and under devices tab see sound playback and select oss and see if that helps [17:30] whitekidney: the easiest way to solve this problem is to add the medibuntu repository. however, this is not legal inside USA [17:30] how has ubuntu managed to screw up photo importing completely [17:30] !medibuntu | whitekidney [17:30] it was working perfectly in gutsy [17:30] whitekidney: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [17:30] its me whitekidney, mirc just ran off somewhere, had to start a new session [17:30] okay, so.. [17:31] re message: hi I want to reinstall grub by live cd but it cant mount selected partition [17:31] WrOnKeR: At this point i have no idea what could be wrong. I have a feeling that it could be something wrong with your card, but let's try what legend2440 suggested. [17:31] can you just like.. give me the command to run it within the terminal? [17:32] does anybody know why netboot stuff for amd64 from ubuntu archives does not install a 64bits kernel (not in gutsy nor in hardy; moreover, in gutsy the installer hangs)?

[17:51] babo, in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf around line 18 .. uncomment the line that says "prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;" [17:51] no idea, they should both get the same config from the DHCP server [17:51] i also tried to change /dev/dsp1 in /dev/video0, because somewhere in my kernel, i read that the tv-card is video 0, but then he writes: sox stio: Failed reading `/dev/video0': Unable to reset OSS driver.

[19:02] squid blocks all my acces requests can anyone help me? [19:02] battler: did you setup squid [19:02] ikonia: massively pointless? this is a support channel, are you retarded? [19:02] menloh, from where and to where are you trying to ssh to? [19:03] crazytalk: no, but you've made 10 line post when 2 would have done [19:03] crazytalk: and don't call people names, [19:03] We can't see what the issue is. [19:03] It ends abruptly without addressing the actual issue. [19:03] ikonia: Yes I did, I get a message when I setup my proxy that access has been denied [19:03] ikonia: i didn't call you a name, i enquired after your mental capacity. [19:03] crazytalk: don't be silly, you called me retarded, don't [19:03] battler: what auth method did you setup === eddyMul_ is now known as eddyMul [19:04] ikonia: no authentication [19:04] battler: ok, there must be some as your getting an access error [19:04] ikonia: you're being a jerk, don't [19:04] Could somebody please aid me? My processes are all randomly dying on my Ubuntu. [19:04] hello I'm italian, I have a problem with ubuntu dapper drake on a Apple G4, can anybody help me? [19:04] crazytalk: I'm not, I'm asking you to not spam the channel and put relevane in your post [19:05] Hi unop .... host A is the fresh install that has an issue... ssh to localhost works fine. pinging anything else on the subnet is fine. SSH from Host B (on the same subnet) to Host A, or even a ping, fails miserably. :-| [19:05] i amn't spamming, the guidelines are to put all information on one line. [19:05] battler: have you got anything like tcp wrappers blocking access, or an ip limiting [19:05] crazytalk: yes, and you posted 10 line post 2 times in about 60 seconds [19:05] ikonia: more like 4 minutes, you should enable timestamping [19:05] ikonia: When I check my var/log/squid accesslog it says access denied 403 [19:05] Also, said 10 line post ends in the middle of a sentence. [19:06] crazytalk: just keep it in grip [19:06] ikonia: Sow that would mean its being blocked by squid itself [19:06] battler: thats interesting so it's actually hitting squid and getting knocked back [19:06] battler: so there must be either user/auth or ip/subnet style auth enabled in squid [19:06] Hi... is there a way to mount a drive via ssh in ubuntu? [19:06] dmakalsky: the "mount" command will allow you to mount it on the local mahcine, if you want to export that to your local machine use fuser [19:06] ikonia: My conf is only 4 rows of text, should I copy paste it? [19:06] fuse [19:07] battler: that could be the problem, that $auth is enabled by default unless you put a line in to say "disable" [19:07] will fuser work across diff networks? [19:07] dmakalsky: as long as you have network access, it should do [19:07] dmakalsky: it basiclly tunnels over ssh [19:08] ikonia: acl internal_network src 192.168.1.0/24 [19:08] acl perfect_vista src 192.168.1.50 [19:08] http_access allow internal_network [19:08] http_access allow perfect_vista [19:08] visible_hostname perfect-linux [19:08] battler: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[19:10] ikonia: After I got the access denied message I mad a acl line just for the perfect-vista , you reconmend to remove the perfect vista line?

Make your cam work under linux, then think on stepping forward. [21:33] Nutzebahn: I've never used Dreamweaver, so I wouldn't know. [21:34] buckie i meant dont install it [21:34] arvind_khadri, damn I just accpepted [21:34] fat-head: no. The kernel is not a process, and it has to know about the cpu's 64-bit modes so that it can run processes in the 64-bit mode. [21:34] Nutzebahn: no such good thing on Linux as dreamweaver [21:34] kobor42, it works in linux [21:34] arvind_khadri, but no matter ill uninstall after === tevleV is now known as HearingDisabled [21:34] ( [21:34] buckie, ctrl+z [21:34] Nutzebahn: but they say that NVU is alternative to it... but not as close as good.

[21:36] arvind_khadri, but the problem with the firefox bugs me, mb if you read the tutorial you can figure out what went wrong ? === julle_screen is now known as julle [21:36] !moblock [21:36] info in detail is on this wiki page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MoBlock [21:36] buckie, about your firefox just report a bug === basso_ is now known as basso === julle is now known as julle_ [21:36] will applications for KDE (ex.

[21:38] ill paste in the bin thingy [21:38] damn, I'm too slow [21:38] buckie: worst case scenario you totally screw up your ubuntu, and since there's no lame licensing issues like windows you can just reinstall it :D [21:38] someone told me to start using aptitude instead of apt-get [21:38] aptitude is a front-end to APT [21:38] unop making it the safest and easiest way to protect your privacy on P2P. [21:38] buckie, yeah fine [21:38] skarface where there's a repository for moblock? [21:38] basso: aptitude is for if you don't really know much about the package, or the name, that' you're looking for [21:39] basso: but I find that if you know what you want and what it's called, "sudo apt-get install XXXX" is much faster [21:39] buckie, :) i thought thingy was used only in India in our college [21:39] ok, how do i get aptitude to upgrade from one version of ubuntu to another, without manually editing sources.list?

[22:47] r00tz0r: Would be helpful to print the exact command you are trying to exec, then try it on the terminal --- just to see [22:47] Intangir, well as long as that command tells you you are using a swap device, it's ok .. the less swap used, the better your system is running [22:47] Auctionedllama: It may be that your monitor's sync ranges are not correctly set/detected while using fglrx driver.

[22:50] Auctionedllama: If you are just getting a black screen (x doesn't bail with an error) then that could mean the sync is wrong for the monitor. Haha but X and the driver don't know that's happening. [22:50] ok [22:50] I'll leave it on vesa [22:51] anyone ever deal with a broken software index and a fix that would help so i could receive updates?

[23:01] Auctionedllama: Only thing I can think is to run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and walk it through, selecting fglrx as the driver to use. Be sure to manually set the hsync and vsync ranges. You can easily find some standard values through google. [23:01] Sandraaa, I'm assuming you are using the same port to plug in your speakers/headphones? [23:01] hey anyone, i have vino vnc server ... how do i use it?

Any hard drive useagle? === K4k_ is now known as k4k-laptop [23:05] http://www.petitiononline.com/vent4Lin/petition.html [23:05] http://www.petitiononline.com/vent4Lin/petition.html [23:05] opps sorry [23:05] Prefix: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:05] Hey mate, turns out the vsync and hsync rates were right. so lets hope this driver works [23:06] sandraaaa, Do you know if the headphones were working before you installed Ubuntu? [23:06] Hey dude [23:06] Um, my compiz dies out. My access to programs abruptly dies. The toolbar disappears, along with the toolbars on my programs. The programs then eventually crash one by one. [23:07] take a guess as to what happened.. Black screen... no response to CTRL ALT F1 [23:07] they r still working when i input them [23:07] you get that mate? [23:07] The hal debug turns to read only, killing my ability to get a log. [23:07] i cant hear the sound froem [23:07] speakers [23:08] hurrtin- you get that? [23:08] wha? [23:08] sandraaaa, So you plug in your headphones and the speakers "die" and nothing comes out of your headphones? [23:08] how do I determine the uuid of a partition? [23:08] I got the black screen [23:08] At one point, I lost access to my hard drive in general; it couldn't even be mounted. Ran an fsck on it, which gave me access again, but I still crash. [23:08] Does anyone know of an HCL for Ubuntu? [23:08] and sync rates were correct [23:08] Currently, I don't have access to programs (Such as Firefox), and can't open the pictures on my desktop. [23:09] Fishscene, http://www.ubuntuhcl.org/ [23:09] Auctionedllama: this is a separate computer? [23:09] it comes from headph but not from laptops speakers [23:09] yes [23:09] the whole time I was getting blackscreen [23:09] I couldn't even get on [23:09] Auctionedllama: Is it still up with blank screen? [23:09] yup [23:09] Auctionedllama: ssh to it from your working box. [23:09] doing recovery command so I can do commands [23:09] do what?? [23:10] oh ok. From the recovery terminal do this: tail -10 /var/log/Xorg.0.log [23:10] sandraaaa, so if you plug in your headphones, it comes from headphones, but not from speakers. If you unplug headphones, it comes from speakers? [23:10] mooboo1, Thanks :) [23:11] :) [23:11] i lost windos partition on last update. i get grub error 12 . and i cant mount partition The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't have a valid NTFS. === StooJ is now known as StooJ_ [23:11] mhm [23:11] says no such file [23:11] Cpudan80: Okay -- the ping command is working from console -- but this is the weird thing. In the script, if it pings any local address (10.10.10.x) it will come back as up, but if I ping any external address, it will say its down (when it really is up because I can ping it from terminal) [23:11] no there isnt any sound coming from the speakers at all [23:12] sandraaaa, gotchya [23:12] Auctionedllama: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old [23:12] ok [23:12] now I got a shitload of info [23:12] Auctionedllama: The last several lines should tell you if something went wrong [23:12] mmhmh [23:13] nope talking about the nouse [23:13] *mouse [23:13] How can I make it so that a program also looks for libraries in the directory that it's in?

[23:14] ok I got no response or anything [23:14] just sat [23:14] I can't open the majority of my programs (Such as Mozilla, or even the pictures on my desktop). [23:14] I have both KDE and Gnome installed on my desktop, but I want to try out KDE, without switching completely to it? [23:14] no there isnt any sound coming from the speakers at all [23:14] sandraaaa, I'm unable to find your hardware on the HCL. however: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+question/22073 [23:14] And it just happened, without anything being done to cause it. [23:14] What command can I use to start KDE instead of Gnome, temporarily [23:14] Auctionedllama: grep -i 'fglrx' /var/log/Xorg.0.log [23:15] dmsuperman: select it by pressing "option" at the login screen [23:15] fyreofchaos13: Try going to Applications - Accessories - Terminal. Does that open? [23:15] dmsuperman: just logout and re-login and select option [23:15] jrib, azuki, thanks :D [23:15] Vadi: No [23:15] no file error [23:15] fyreofchaos13: what *does* happen?

ATI is the SUCK for linux :( [23:16] i have a panel applet that i would like to uninstall so that i can reinstall it, does anyone know how to do this? [23:16] Now my taskbar is gone. =) [23:16] aww man [23:16] Ok thanks [23:16] hurrrtin: might not be so after a while though [23:16] Chousuke: I know... its oss now. [23:16] I'll bbl in 20.. dinner.. can you stay on maybe help me find some Wikis or such? Thanks for your help and bai [23:16] fyreofchaos13: Sweet. Save & close your work, and do Ctrl+Alt+Backspace. Hopefully you'll be back and OK [23:17] maybe hardy heron will have better, newer drivers. It comes out in 7 days. [23:17] I'd use ati or vesa until then. [23:17] im having 20-30 second freezeups about 2-3 times an hour on 7.10 [23:17] i dont know whats causing it, or how to debug it [23:17] Wireless is most likely [23:17] so anyone have an opinion on if its worth upgrading from gutsy to hardy in a few days? if vista has taught people anything its that newer is not always better [23:17] ! screen [23:17] screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen [23:17] almostdvs: what is the actual issue? [23:18] hello, I have a problem that I can not fix using the faq or find an answer too in the forum involving multi displays, and a lack of command line linux. [23:18] Cpudan80: Okay -- the ping command is working from console -- but this is the weird thing. In the script, if it pings any local address (10.10.10.x) it will come back as up, but if I ping any external address, it will say its down (when it really is up because I can ping it from terminal) [23:18] MEtaLpREs: I upgraded, and it's quite good for me [23:18] Vadi: are you saying wireless to me? [23:18] ill try thx [23:18] MEtaLpREs: Definitely not xp - vista. [23:18] Intangir: yeah that's what I'm suspecting, given the symptoms. I used to experience the same issue as you. [23:18] mac menu doesn't work in hardy and i would like to try reinstalling it but i can't figure out how to uninstall it [23:18] Vadi: how do i tell? and fix it? [23:19] so upgrading right away should go smooth? seems like sometimes its better to wait till all the bugs are worked out before making the switch [23:19] MEtaLpREs: yes, there will be bugs, what matters is if there are big ones and if you can deal with the little ones. If you're unsure, just wait until it's out [23:20] Intangir: that I don't know. I'd say just hang tight until 8.04 comes out, it solves the issue for me [23:20] yea im going to wait a few days until the final is out, thats what i meant [23:20] Intangir: and be glad it's working as it is atm heh. [23:20] Vadi: should i just get the beta? [23:20] i only just installed this a week ago [23:20] and its been doing it since [23:21] i used 6.10 for a long time without any of this problem [23:21] jrib: mac menu doesn't work in hardy and i would like to try reinstalling it but i can't figure out how to uninstall it [23:21] almostdvs, have you checked the Synaptic Package manager? [23:21] yes [23:21] hey guys, ive just picked up a laptop with windows on, i have booted from live cd and am now installing ubuntu. it said it wanted to replace entire drive, but after it said partition 1 and partition 5. does this mean it will leave the other 3 middle partitions alive? (i want it all linux) [23:21] Hi, I have a problem, I'm trying to install nginx using apt and I download it OK, but then before it finishes install it gives me a error and then I am left with software that I am unable to un-install or use, can anybody help me? (excerpt from my bash session at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63595/) [23:22] lcuk, : no, partition 1 is primary partition, partition 5 logic [23:22] so there is no partitions 2,3,4? [23:23] lcuk : right [23:23] ok thanks, just concerned [23:23] :) [23:23] :) [23:23] SmilyHeKtor: you can't uninstall or install any other programs?

[23:30] pharoh, if its a gnome icon theme archive. You might be able to just drag/drop it to the icon-theme control program window and it should install them. (i think that works under gnome) [23:31] "bash: !aptfix: event not found" [23:31] Dr_willis, where is that?pardon me,i'm a newbie [23:31] corinth: Yes it is [23:31] !aptfix [23:31] If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a » [23:32] ubotu: I did that It didn't work [23:32] Hey all! :) How do you see which video driver is running?
