[00:00] ubuntu-desktop is what i want to cnvert xubuntu into ubuntu correct? [00:00] zaapiel: Yep [00:00] convert* [00:00] Flannel, does that mean it will be slighly slower aswell? [00:00] k ty [00:00] amenado - if I do `lpadmin -h nas -p lp` I get conenction refused.. if I'm logged into "nas" how can I see the socket or prot ot whatever? [00:00] Eyemean: Its only slower when it comes to disk access. And even then, only slightly. [00:00] unop, got it, thank you [00:00] solexious, whats the username you are using to connect to this share? it isn't administrator is it? [00:00] Ok, well, thanks for listening....Maybe I'll try later. [00:00] RonLut: ah and if it is indeed compiz, then we should be able to corner the problem in fast and finish the little sucker off ;) [00:00] solexious, cool [00:01] kevinm_: password protect GRUB, lock your case, remove everything but the HD from boot order, password protect the bios [00:01] can anyone help me set the default applicatin for an ipod? [00:01] kevinm_: And then unplug it from the wall [00:01] i don't like it opening in rhythmbox [00:01] Flannel, thanks i might just do that then, because for some reson ubuntu is acting funny, so installtion time should be alot faster if installed in windows [00:01] maccam94: im using a thinkpad that has features like bios password, could i keep the other boot devices or is a bios password not secure? [00:02] Magicdead: :\ my system stopped again.... I don't know if it's the same problem but I guess so.... [00:02] kevinm_, if someone has physical access to a machine, there really is nothing you can do [00:02] Flannel, is there an easy way to uninstall ubuntu? [00:02] when i log in, my window manager doesn't load and i have to click the fusion icon and select 'reload window manager', how can i fix this? [00:02] is there a way to force a usb-serial device to use a specific /dev/ttyUSBx port? For example, /dev/ttyUSB3 instead of the lowest available port? [00:02] Eyemean: sure, delete the partitions [00:03] maccam94: you're probably right... not using the restricted hardware manager is probably the cause (attribute it to my ubuntu-n00bness... i'm an rhel/fedora guy by training) [00:03] maccam94: problem is [00:03] kevinm_: well you don't want other devices to be before the HD in the boot order, because then someone can boot a livecd and get at your hard drive [00:03] maccam94: i can't seemingly get to that [00:03] unop: really? bios password is beatable? and then removing all kernal boots but my main one and password protecting grub, all that and still they could gain root [00:03] using vlc player in buntu 8.04, settings "adjust vlc priority" needs an offset #, what number should i just to delegate highest priority [00:03] RonLut: hmm. so if it's not compiz, well. difficult to say. have you tried running it for a while without any program open to check if it's cause by a program? [00:03] kevinm_: unless you're using an encrypted filesystem [00:04] RonLut: other than that it could be anything, from some x-server error to god knows what imo [00:04] kevinm_: you don't need to remove all the kernel options, thats what the password protection does. [00:04] Flannel, what about the sectin at the start where u select operating system u want to use? sorry im new to linux [00:04] maccam94: doing the dpkg command resulted in nothing... i even removed the fglrx_drv.so a moment ago, it still locks up [00:04] maccam94: yea but if the bios password came before the boot deviceses shouldnt i be safe from livecd attack? [00:04] Magicdead: :\ [00:04] kevinm_: thinkpad bioses are good, but you need to lock the case shut so they can't reset it [00:04] maccam94: any advice for getting any x to work and then i go the restricted hw mgr route [00:04] Hello??? [00:04] kevinm_, sure, all one has to do is remove the cmos battery for half-an-hour and your BIOS settings are lost - that includes the password you've set [00:04] mattbradshaw: not dpkg, apt-get [00:04] maccam94: good idea [00:04] Eyemean: You'll want to pop in your windows CD, and fix the MBR, and then once you're done with that you'll boot straight into windows. [00:04] Magicdead: Ill do some more checking to see if I can recognize the problem source [00:04] Eyemean: And then after that, just overwrite the ubuntu partitions [00:04] How do i regester a bot? [00:05] unop: i see [00:05] mattbradshaw: it sounds like you're totally hosing the system. you're mixing manual and automatic package handling in the worst ways [00:05] m_newton: What? [00:05] thanks for the suggestions guys [00:05] RonLut: also, have you googled/searched the forums for similar problems? i know it might be hard to find info on this specific topic as it seems to be quite generic, but it's worth a try [00:05] does that mean i seelct repair from windows cd? Flannel ? [00:05] Flannel, well, i want to regester my bot, then give it voice [00:05] Eyemean: Depending on your version, yeah, repair or fixmbr or whatnot [00:05] mattbradshaw: i've gotta go eat dinner now, but if installing the drivers through the restricted-hardware-manager doesn't work, reinstall ubuntu and install them through r-hw-m [00:05] m_newton: Where? [00:06] Flannel, xp [00:06] * maccam94 is GONE [00:06] Flannel, my channel... [00:06] ok cheers Flannel [00:06] Flannel, much appreciated [00:06] m_newton: You register your bot with nickserv, /msg nickserv help register, and then voicing is done by you. [00:06] Hello [00:06] m_newton: and/or with chanserv, if you want to give it privledges. But this is offtopic in #ubuntu [00:06] amenado - if I do `lpadmin -h nas -p lp` I get conenction refused.. if I run nmap I see port 515/tcp is open..... [00:06] Can someone help me with an openssh-server problem with ubuntu gutsy??? [00:07] Flannel, i did, and thanks [00:07] I was hoping someone could help me with a newly installed mythbuntu / grub dual booting problem [00:07] what is the default image viewer in hardy, is it still gthumb? [00:07] quentusrex explain [00:07] FlyingSquirrel31, on the gnome desktop, yes [00:07] is someone using egroupware in ubuntu ? [00:07] thanks to0x [00:07] whats the best prog from .pdf's? [00:07] I just installed mythbuntu, hoping to dual boot with XP. But for some reason when I boot from the hdd and it gets time to load a OS, and hopefully show me the boot menu, the screen just fills up with "grub" over and over again...I had to boot into the LiveCD to get here to ask for help :) [00:07] I'm trying to setup my ubuntu gusty server so that I can ssh into it from my desktop without typing a password [00:07] Vinchenzo28, you mean, to read pdfs? [00:07] unop: yeah [00:08] ubuntu server still contains egroupware 1.2 and there already is 1.4 :S [00:08] Vinchenzo28, acroread - adobe's acrobat reader [00:08] but each time I generate the ssh-keygen -t dsa, and copy it to my remote server. I still get prompted for a password. [00:08] unop: ubuntu compatible? [00:08] unop: I right click on an image and choose open with image viewer it just thinks for a minute and then does nothing. [00:08] Vinchenzo28, there's also evince - both are available on ubuntu, yes [00:08] mattbradshaw: uhm, i didn't follow the whole discussion, but did you try installing the driver with envyng, too? [00:08] unop: thanks [00:09] quentusrex paste the manipulation you do on pastebin.org [00:09] huh? [00:09] FlyingSquirrel31, hmm, try setting the default application back to gthumb and trying again -- if that fails, perhaps reinstall gthumb [00:09] Can some one with basic bash scripting knowledge here help me? :) http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5276296&postcount=7 [00:09] Flannel, well, i have already regestered... How do i regester it [00:09] hello [00:09] MatBoy: egroupware is in universe, #ubuntu-motu is the place to go. However, 1.4 is in Intrepid [00:09] FlyingSquirrel31, it might also be likely that gthumb has crashed - you might want to check that too and kill any instances already running. [00:09] I just scp the id_dsa.pub file into the remote server username@mydomain.com:/home/username/.ssh/authorized_keys2 [00:09] Magicdead: nope === gogi is now known as gogi` [00:10] m_newton: once you register, you don't need to do it again. You need to identify. /msg nickserv help identify [00:10] just having trouble uninstalling it now [00:10] not seeing how to do that even [00:10] bleh [00:10] ati is evil [00:10] Flannel, i am regestered and identified [00:10] m_newton: then whats the question? [00:10] Flannel, i want to register and identify my bot [00:10] Ballena, You can check the number of arguments with $# [00:10] unop: Thanks, that works. I just wasn't sure if perhaps gthumb was supposed to have been replaced with something else. [00:11] mattbradshaw: well, it's sort of a long shot, but the EnvyNG script always did the trick for me when i had display driver probs, just install the package and run envyng [00:11] hello everybody [00:11] m_newton: right, register it just like you would any other nick. And as for automatic identification, that'll depend on the bot [00:11] quentusrex: there is no "2" at the end of the authorized_keys file [00:11] FlyingSquirrel31, cool [00:11] ok, I'll try to change that [00:11] m_newton: you may also need to check your email for account verification instructions [00:11] Flannel, /msg nickserv REGISTER [00:12] Flannel, that will regester me... my nick is diffrent from my bot [00:12] mattbradshaw: it has several options, like automatically installing it, manually installing it, uninstalling drivers and so on [00:12] hi hopefully this'll work now [00:12] m_newton: /join #ubuntu-offtopic [00:12] hello Starnestommy [00:12] quentusrex: and keep in mind that the passphrase for the key would be empty [00:12] i use a Fritz!WLAN USB-Stick on my Sony Vario Notebook PCG-FR415B under Hardy, configured manually and patched fritzusb from launchpad-Forum eingerichtet [00:12] I'm not sure if anyone got my previous msgs of help, but I just installed mythbuntu and am having some problems... [00:12] I just installed mythbuntu, hoping to dual boot with XP. But for some reason when I boot from the hdd and it gets time to load a OS, and hopefully show me the boot menu, the screen just fills up with "grub" over and over again [00:12] hey question is there a way you guys can type the names of people you're talking to instead of actually typing it? [00:12] like do you press any special key combos or whatever [00:12] shubuntu: type the first two or three letters then press tab [00:13] my problem is, ubuntu freezes, after the notebook is a time long idle [00:13] Magicdead, libasound2-plugins depends on libasound2 (>> 1.0.16); however: [00:13] Version of libasound2 on system is 1.0.15-3ubuntu4. [00:13] then how to I execute a remote ssh command without typing the password? [00:13] O [00:13] i tired that [00:13] someone pleeaasee help...I haev a feeling it's a fairly easy fix, I just have no idea how to do it [00:13] that means - if no data wall be transfered on the wlan0, the system make a "powersave" - and all frezzes [00:13] it brings a list of them in the chat window [00:13] I'm trying to script a command to run on my remote server, without having to type the password. [00:13] doesn't come down here in the typing area [00:14] quentusrex: please, when youre talking to me, highlight me [00:14] not enough letters typed [00:14] ok to0x [00:14] i can't follow you [00:14] Lymies: you can't use intrepid packages in Hardy [00:14] now my question: how can i disable the powersave function of the usb-connections? [00:14] oh i got it it has to be unique [00:14] nevermind [00:14] mattbradshaw: read section on uninstall ati https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_cat86-inst.html [00:14] idea two: a tool what sends a ping every 30 seconds [00:15] to0x, I'm trying to setup a script to run a command on my remote server, but without having to type the password each time the script runs. [00:15] Flannel, what does that mean [00:15] Lymies: uhm... well i suggest you first try following the instructions on the forum-link i gave you, and if that doesn't work get all the packages you need from packages.ubuntu.com intrepid repository [00:15] what is possible? [00:15] question: i have an ubuntu hardy desktop i built.... anyway i'm having trouble getting on the interwebs.... i'm connected to a wireless router (with an ethernet cable).... anyway, i tired connecting both via wired & wireless... i get an ip address from the router.... but pinging any service results in "ping: unknown host yahoo.com". this was working fine before... and better yet, i'm connected to the same router on the lap [00:15] top i'm typing to you on. [00:15] Flannel: why can't he/her use intrepid packages? [00:15] Lymies: How did you get that file (libasound-plugins?) through the repos? or what? [00:15] Flannel: the intrepid flash 10 solves a lot of problems with pa [00:15] im eating crumbled bacon in a bowl like cereal [00:15] Magicdead: He can use intrepid files if he's on intrepid. You can't mix/match files like that. [00:16] quentusrex: in order to have access to a machine without password with ssh, you ve to generate a public key from your client server, and then copy this file to the user@server:~/.ssh/authorized_keys file [00:16] quentusrex: but the passphrase need to be empty when you generate your public key [00:16] can nobody helps me [00:16] but I have done this.... [00:16] :( [00:16] can anyone help me...pretty please...grub dual boot problem.... [00:16] that's my problem.... :( [00:16] tareks: whats the problem? [00:16] quentusrex: no you didn't [00:16] connor: I just installed mythbuntu, hoping to dual boot with XP. But for some reason when I boot from the hdd and it gets time to load a OS, and hopefully show me the boot menu, the screen just fills up with "grub" over and over again [00:16] quentusrex: is quite foolproof [00:16] jant, then what am I don't wrong??? [00:17] tareks: if you can, get a ubuntu live cd and boot it [00:17] Magicdead: It happend again... it's not compiz problem, for sure.... [00:17] and try an install to see if that helps [00:17] Flannel: hmm that's the info i found on the forums when i had problems with flash & pa. sure it's a workaround but in this case the flashplugin-nonfree + alsa 1.0.16 works great [00:17] connor: I'm in the live cd right now [00:17] oh [00:17] ok [00:17] um, download the ubuntu iso and burn it [00:17] jant, to0x I'm running ssh-keygen -t dsa and I'm leaving the password field blank [00:18] tareks: how did you install? [00:18] Well the CD I booted into is the Mythbuntu Live CD / Install CD [00:18] hmm [00:18] connor: I just went through the install normally....didn't select anything but default settings [00:18] try reinstalling [00:18] that usually helps me [00:18] what burn speed did you use? [00:18] quentusrex: are you sure you want to ssh with the correct user [00:18] always use the lowest speed on things like this [00:19] quentusrex: then scp .ssh/id_dsa.pub @server_to_connect_to:~/.ssh/authorized_keys [00:19] Can someone please give me a quick answer as to whether you would either install Ubuntu or Kubuntu onto a fresh harddrive? Been using Ubuntu in college, and wondering if Kubuntu is a better option..... or is this all just preference? [00:19] jjjjjfjjfjfj: ubuntu uses gnome and kubuntu uses kde [00:19] I burnt it in 16X [00:19] RonLut: hum, that sucks. well i wonder, if you boot from the install-cd, so you use the standard system on the cd, would the problem still exist. [00:19] tareks: was that the lowest? [00:19] I think it's just something wrong with how the dual loader is setup or something, I can't really say since I'm new at this stuff [00:19] quentusrex: make sure that the directory .ssh on the server to connect to excists [00:19] Magicdead: What you mean? using the live cd? [00:19] tareks: always get comfortable with the live cd first [00:19] jjjjjfjjfjfj: yes you can [00:20] quentusrex: eq scp shouldn't stop with an error [00:20] connor: yes, would your preference be gnome or kde? [00:20] jjjjjfjjfjfj, just prefs bro [00:20] tareks: try uninstalling mythbuntu first and see if that helps [00:20] it doesn't. [00:20] jjjjjfjjfjfj: i use ubuntu personally, it was what i started with [00:20] RonLut: on the linux install-cd is a pre-made complete ubuntu, so you can boot of the cd and use that standard system. [00:20] tareks: uninstalling mythbuntu will remove grub, letting you boot xp [00:20] quentusrex: then you are done [00:20] I'm having troubles getting grub to boot my installation of Windows XP. Windows setup installed the boot loader into a different partition than the XP installation. Can anyone help me get around this? [00:20] jant, but it doesn't work.... [00:20] I am running ubuntu installer and the only choise it gives me is to use entire disk. I want to install it preserving existing partition table. How can I do it? [00:21] quentusrex: so take a look at your ssh config server file and verifiy that this line exists: PubkeyAuthentication yes [00:21] zangabar: what happens? [00:21] who [00:21] connor: Do you know of any advantages/disadvantages over one or the other? [00:21] jjjjjfjjfjfj: no I don't, === root is now known as Guest80110 [00:21] RonLut: now if you have the problems with the standard system, it is indeed weird. if you don't have it on the live-cd system, the problem is most probably due to some changes you made, your installation, which would mean it's fixable :) [00:21] i think my file system just went read only.... how can i checK? [00:21] jjjjjfjjfjfj: try both live cds for about 30 minutes and see which you prefer [00:21] umm.. anyone willing to let me vnc into their computer to test out vnc? [00:21] kubuntu and ubuntu [00:21] or possible xubuntu [00:21] jjjjjfjjfjfj: k comes before u?? [00:21] Right-o then. How, exactly, would I go about putting ubuntu onto an external HDD? Or, better yet, windows XP? When I tried to install xp I got a lengthy message about not being able to install onto a USB drive. [00:21] h [00:22] RSAAuthentication yes [00:22] PubkeyAuthentication yes [00:22] #AuthorizedKeysFile %h/.ssh/authorized_keys [00:22] cyphase: yea in a few mines [00:22] connor: thanks.... yep, thats what im going to test out...... dont know anything about kde, but ive been using ubuntu for 5 years now [00:22] mechyuske: in the install menu your usb drive SHOULD be on the menu [00:22] oh ok [00:22] minutes* [00:22] RonLut: other than that i really have no idea how to find the problem except trial and error. [00:22] so quentusrex you're doing something wrong [00:22] For ubuntu? All right, that's simple enough. [00:22] yep [00:22] thanks for the help guys... but gotta jet === theresa is now known as user1101 [00:22] I think grub or something is just setup incorrectly....I have my XP installation in one physical hdd sdb1 and the linux in another physical hdd which has 2 partitions (one ntfs) and the linux is in sda5 [00:22] guess i'll be reading up on ubuntu's x [00:22] I'd prefer xp, but can't seem to get that working what-so-ever. [00:22] Jester45: thanks, i appreciate that [00:22] mechysuke: does your motherboard support usb booting? [00:22] mine does :D [00:22] Yes. [00:22] good [00:23] then you are set [00:23] connor: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [00:23] to0x, But I'm following all of the steps correctly... [00:23] to0x, Where is the ssh log file? [00:23] im sorry floodbot [00:23] It doesn't work, though. I've tried various different installations. [00:23] quentusrex: no you are not [00:23] mechyuske: what doesnt work? [00:23] I cannot get vista nor xp to install onto my external hdd. [00:23] hmm [00:23] quentusrex: did you verify that the file is correctly created, have to good permissions? all these things [00:24] More specifically, Windows XP is installed on sda5, and the Windows boot loader was installed onto sda2 [00:24] hey people i have xp home edition on my pc and now ubuntu too but i would like to control both of them in one packet how could i put my xp on my ubuntu ??? [00:24] have the good* [00:24] mechyuske: does it not appear in the install menu? [00:24] Can I install ubuntu withouth altering existing partition table? [00:24] tell me how it's suppose to be done, just to double check to0x [00:24] mechyuske: for my ubuntu install, i had to unplug my external hard drive to install to my internal [00:24] quentusrex: i just did [00:24] chmod 600 authorized_keys ? [00:24] XP doesn't let me choose a location. [00:24] hey people i have xp home edition on my pc and now ubuntu too but i would like to control both of them in one packet how could i put my xp on my ubuntu ??? [00:24] mechyuske: you install via a live cd [00:24] And vista doesn't allow you to install to a usb drive. [00:24] bibi__, no [00:24] or wubi [00:24] bibi__, Do you have windows installed? [00:24] mechyuske: the live cd is the preferred install method [00:24] because its much safer [00:25] For ubuntu? [00:25] yes [00:25] quentusrex: ssh log file in /var/log i guess [00:25] I was talking about XP/Vista. I should be able to get ubuntu to install just fine. [00:25] !wubi | bibi__ [00:25] bibi__: Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. [00:25] It creates a partition, rather being installed INSIDE of windows itself, making it more proficient [00:25] hey people i have xp home edition on my pc and now ubuntu too but i would like to control both of them in one packet how could i put my xp on my ubuntu ??? [00:25] can anybody help me fix my sound?? [00:25] tayfun: virtual box or vmware [00:25] or qemu [00:25] SeaPhor: Jordan_U: I have another linux distro. and I want ubuntu to be installed on /dev/sda7 , other partitions unchanged. [00:25] how to Set full permissions (CHMOD 777) on every file inside the "/templates" directory ??? [00:25] quentusrex: the user@server have to read the authorized_keys file correctly [00:25] mattbradshaw: did you read section on uninstall ati? https://a248.e.akamai.net/f/674/9206/0/www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_cat86-inst.html [00:26] virtual box or vmarare ? i dont know what those means can u tell me step by step what should i install or set? [00:26] bibi__: when i installed ubuntu on my old computer it left opensuse11 installed, i dont know why [00:26] aditya1: chmod -R 777 /templates/* [00:26] bibi__, so you have a prepared place for it? [00:26] bibi__: just try installing ubuntu [00:26] bibi__, That can be done easily, just mark /dev/sda7 as '/' in the installer and make sure none of the others are marked to be reformatted ( they shouldn't be by default ) [00:26] to0x: thank you.....and why -R ? [00:26] Mechyuske: Microsoft does not like their OS on external drives. I have read a long web log on forcing XP to install but takes too much effort and its still unstable. [00:26] ok, I think one issue might be with my desktop hostname [00:27] wormux [00:27] quentusrex: like ? [00:27] aditya1: -R for recursive, it will give 777 file permissions to subdirectories [00:27] bibi__, if that is the case then still no unless you also have prepared a swap space [00:27] my hostname in the id_rsa.pub file is: quentusrex@quentusrex-desktop [00:27] aditya1: you probably don't want 777. You probably want a+rwX [00:28] Jordan_U: it insists that I partition my disk before I start installation === m_newton is now known as m-bot2 [00:28] quentusrex: no it doesn't matter [00:28] ok [00:28] bibi__, Do manual partitioning, you don't have to remove your other partitions when you repartition [00:29] bibi__, it will still alter existing partition table, which was your question [00:29] heyya all, got a little problem with ubuntu i would like to get some help with. Anyone got the time? [00:29] then I'm not sure what the problem is.... [00:29] SeaPhor: so there is just no way [00:29] !ask | d3eniz [00:29] d3eniz: 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. :-) [00:29] ? [00:29] how to solve this problem ??? "You don't have permission to access /se/files/install.php on this server."

I just want to install ubuntu say on /dev/sda7 and preserve data thatas on /dev/sda8 withouth having to backup. [00:36] quentusrex: anyway you should regenerate the blacklisted key [00:36] quentusrex, do man ssh-vulnkey , it explains why your key is bad [00:36] hey people how can i change the background picture from my start menu when i open my pc and its ask me my account name and password?

[00:37] tannji: System > Admin > Login Window [00:37] SeaPhor: You mean if I had a free space instead of /dev/sda7 I could install ubuntu there withouth touching /dev/sda8? [00:37] tayfun: that was for you [00:37] tayfun, install gdmsetup, then see Flannel [00:37] lol [00:37] thanks, but i don't find anything there.

[00:39] does anyone know if there's some equivalent set of programs that can simulate the behavior of drobo, e.g. maybe scripts? [00:39] i am assuming its intel computres? [00:39] nick rud [00:39] to0x, the problem was that I had openssl updated, but I didn't have libssl0.9.8 updated [00:39] of a drobo rather [00:39] okay [00:39] i tried to install gmd setup from terminal it says no packet found [00:39] * bubaglobalJ is a nub, pls help [00:39] to0x, you have to update libssl so that the blacklisted keys are fixed. [00:39] what should i write there for to install it ? [00:39] I know what driver I use in this pc, but i dont know what driver I use in a box where a ati card is. [00:39] quentusrex yep ;) [00:39] nickrud: What? Its installed by default [00:39] hi all [00:40] Flannel, I thought I remembered installing it on this machine. [00:40] NetEcho: No, but xchat is in universe, and irssi is in main [00:40] well then if u are sure that /dev/sda7 is where you want it then yes, but you will need to partition for swap, which edits /changes your partition table, which was your question,,, as far as "and preserve data thatas on /dev/sda8 withouth having to backup." never a good idea to mess with partitions without backup [00:40] hello [00:40] NetEcho: and xchat-gnome is in main too, but most don't like that [00:40] Flannel yea I know I'm just trying to introduce a guy who's never touched linux before to ubuntu [00:40] how can I use my webcam and/or my fingerprint reader in ubuntu? [00:40] Flannel, and I saw what you wrote (intended to say the same) but you'd already done so. [00:40] bibi__, no, not what i mean [00:40] nickrud: Just trying to steal my fire ;) [00:41] hey i accidentally put a typo in my user name when i installed, how do i correct my username [00:41] Flannel, I use electric bulbs, what would I need with fire ;p [00:41] what version should I download, using a macbook intel core duo [00:41] how can i install gdm setup and where do i find it after i install it on my pc??? [00:42] pls help me [00:42] bibi__, and yes,,, but would change the partition table that was your original question [00:42] ok, how can i see what hardware i have on my notebook?

[00:42] tayfun: system>administration>login screen [00:42] SeaPhor: jordan_U: basically what I want is following. right now I have two partitions /dev/sda7 and /dev/sda8. my home (GBs of data) is mounted on /dev/sda8 everything else (/etc /boot /log ...) is on /dev/sda7. I want to install ubuntu on /dev/sda7 and I want all the data to be left untouched on /dev/sda8 (mount it later as my home directory). Is it doable with ubuntu installer or would I have to backup entyre home directory and write it bac [00:42] again after installation? [00:42] !askbot version download [00:42] bubaglobalJ: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [00:42] bibi__, but that leaves the question,, where do you install grub?

[00:43] download it from there site [00:43] quentusrex: read the svn book :-) [00:43] hey i accidentally put a typo in my user name when i installed, how do i correct my username [00:43] but why is the apt-get function not working? [00:43] By the way, I don't have my Windows CD anymore, and I'm a total novice. [00:44] d3eniz, Can you pastebin the output from "sudo apt-get install vlc-plugin-pulse" ? [00:44] bibi__, That is doable with the installer [00:44] I am going to download the desktop Intel version, are there any objections? [00:44] thedefender: man usermod [00:44] jant: thx [00:44] bibi__, Just select manual partitioning, make /dev/sda7 "/" and /dev/sda8 "/home" and make sure that /dev/sda8 is NOT marked to be reformatted [00:44] bibi__, yes do-able, never advisable without backup,, but yes [00:45] yes, the ati box has linux ubuntu. But I think that there must be a way to know witch driver is actually in use, with ati i can use 4 different drivers. [00:45] hi ya des francais?

[00:50] i think that after xorg 7.3, the xorg.conf file has nothing more, a least some body specificed this. so, i have nothing [00:50] Tayfun: learn to read [00:50] SeaPhor you're welcome :p [00:50] with windows is ok i copy and then i see file in tv [00:50] arooni-mobile, shittts: the terminal command is route [00:50] thanks [00:50] arooni-mobile: are you sure your router has a DNS server running on it?

Grazie! [00:51] that is a good idea, in my intel box it works, but i have to see this in an ati box. Surly it works :) [00:51] GoetzC: do you have gnome-device-manager installed. it is in Applications>system tools if it is installed. that lists my ati driver as fglrx [00:51] to0x play with me at wormux [00:52] julius tg crétin [00:52] to0x, lol, nice, NOT me that needs ;-) [00:52] read [00:52] GoetzC: well, lsmod as such works for sure, just not sure if ati is listed on the agpgart line as well ;) [00:52] pq tg ? to0x [00:52] Pici, routes are exactly the same [00:53] can anyone tell me how to find the status of my kernel? I need alsa, but this readme says I need the full kernel source installed, and that some distros dont do that by default.... [00:53] i have this not installed, but I i'm downloading it :) [00:53] whats the standard source formatter for linux? [00:53] Jordan_U: SeaPhor: I removed installation CD. booted into existing system. fdisk shows two partitions. The installation CD I am using is ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso . What is the meaning of alternate here? [00:53] to0x tu es francais? [00:54] bibi__, Ahh, you are using the text based install CD rather than the LiveCD based install CD [00:54] jant, to0x if I want www-data to be able to remotely log into my remote server how would I do that? [00:54] I want www-data to login to my remote server using my username and keys [00:54] GoetzC: Magicdead is right lsmod has line like agpgart 34760 2 fglrx,amd64_agp which lists fglrx as my driver [00:54] whats a good iso burner for mac os x? [00:54] suisse [00:54] jordan_u, ok, now i tryed that aswell, it installs something and gives a sign that somethings beeing installed, but when i try to find vlc, there is nothing anywere in the applications menu [00:54] bibi__, alternate cd has more config options in install [00:54] GoetzC: just checked, as long as it's an agp card, it should be there :) agpgart is a basic kernel module for agp cards [00:55] quentusrex why do you want to do that, it's a bit insecure [00:55] and text based [00:55] oh, that is grate! [00:55] to0x, because I want svn to update my sandbox webserver whenever I post a new commit to my svn repo [00:55] hi all. i have gnome set up just the way i like it on my account. is there an easy way to duplicate these settings for another account? [00:55] the remote user account is very restrictive and protected. [00:56] it can only run a single command: svn update [00:56] trying to upgrade 8.04 over 6.06 via alt cd, keep getting prereqs failed error, any ideas? [00:56] so, that is the right way, also, in gnome-device-manager i have not found my driver. [00:56] SeaPhot: If I created some free space on my device, would I be able to install ubuntu there and mount already existing ext3 partitions afterwards? [00:56] quentusrex i guess there is an option in svn to do that [00:56] how do i downgrade my nvidia drivers to work on 2.6.22-14-rt kernel? [00:56] So I just discovered the awesomeness that is acidrip.....I'm so stoked now [00:56] k, so tell me if i'm crazy here, but if i DELETE the xorg.conf and then user nvidia-xconfig and then reboot...that SHOULD get me into X right? [00:56] GoetzC: is it fglrx? [00:56] cuz right now, when i do that, i get caught in the failsafe crap [00:57] and even THEN nvidia-settings thinks i'm not in an nvidia X, probably because i'm in safe mode [00:57] mroc, All options are in configuration files in your home folder, ~/.gconf is where the gnome ( and other ) settings are stored, you can copy them to your other user's home folder and change the ownership to that other user [00:58] Jordan_U: fantastic! thank you. is it just as easy for compiz settings as well? [00:58] i have right know only an intel box to check, but it should work with lsmod :) [00:58] nuuuuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttt !!!!!!!!!!!1 [00:58] mroc, Yes, pretty much everything in *NIX is saved in plain text files :) [00:59] GoetzC: well if it doesn't you can still do just "lsmod" and look through the whole text, but it's a little long ;) [00:59] Hi, I am having screen resolution problems, I was wondering if anyone could help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=842856 [00:59] Jordan_U: much appreciated. thanks. [00:59] SeaPhor: If I created some free space on my device, would I be able to install ubuntu there and mount already existing ext3 partitions afterwards? [00:59] arooni-mobile: you can check with 'dig @192.168.0.1 yahoo.com' if there is one it should return pretty quickly, if not it will hang around for a while [00:59] GoetzC: its kind of tricky in device manager. you have to click View>Device properties then highlight VGA Controller then click properties tab on top of right window [00:59] hello? [00:59] mroc, If you want to transfer all of your settings for all of your user's applications then copy all of the files and folders which begin with '.' in your home folder [01:00] yes it is long, hehe. [01:00] GoetzC: but the driver also has a single line entry, for instance for me "nvidia 7105956 34 " [01:01] its pretty bad when your laptop CPU core temperature is cooler than it is outside right now. [01:01] quentusrex: maybe you want to hire me ? :P [01:01] :) maybe [01:01] salve a tutti [01:01] do you live near Seattle? [01:01] quentusrex: nope I live in The Netherlands [01:01] suprfish, that's an odd problem all right [01:01] :( [01:01] After messing around a bit, I was able to get my desktop resolution properly set to 1680 x 1050, but my screen's resolution is still 1280 x 1024 [01:01] oh well. [01:02] oh, I have not know about this hidden tab :) Tanks [01:02] FurryNemesis, any suggestions? [01:02] let me look at those xorgs a bit closer [01:02] Blaqlight, Wow, you sure you aren't mixing Fahrenheit with Celsius ? [01:03] umm nope [01:03] is there a way to get rid of the .sudo_as_admin_successful for ever? [01:03] core temp is 102 degrees farenheight. [01:03] its 104 degree farenheight now in this city. [01:03] What "runlevel" does ubuntu start in by default? [01:03] if I do a "lsmod |grep intel" there is a intel_agp and a agpgart. [01:03] FurryNemesis, the latest xorg.conf is on post #11 with the commented Screen and Monitor sections uncommented [01:03] thats 38.8 [01:03] :D [01:03] in celsius language [01:03] LOL [01:03] MidnightDevil: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:04] looking at it now [01:04] celcius is for all other countries but the US. cuz we special I guess or something. [01:04] u just dont use the same math as we do [01:04] bibi__, ok, example only!,,, i have a 160gb hd mounted as /home,, another 160gb hd mounted as /var, which are both in the file-system [01:05] GoetzC: well it always depends on the system. if it's a pci card, probably "lsmod |grep pci" would work :P [01:05] neither the binary structure is the same :d [01:05] My mysql database was running a moment ago and now when i try to start it is fails.Any help would be appreciated. [01:05] what!?!?! you mean 1+2=4? [01:05] no [01:05] 1+2=12 [01:05] :D [01:05] Okay, so im having a network issue. The interface loads up fine and was working prior but now..nothing..no packets in no packets out. The switch doesnt even see any arp packets coming from the box. [01:05] I've got no clue... [01:06] and with pciexpress?? :) [01:06] u got urself a stealth box, congrats :) [01:06] GoetzC: lol. go try it out ;) [01:06] suprfish, what is that "virtual" line in the screen section supposed to do? [01:06] SeaPhor: I have both partitions on the same hd. I guess my only option is to make the actual backup. [01:06] t35t0r: I'm working on it :) [01:07] Khisanth, got it working [01:07] does the user www-data have a password set? [01:08] hehe, if I would have one, i will look into lsmod. Many thanks to you and to for your help! [01:08] quent: NO there is no reason for it to have one [01:09] FurryNemesis: I am not certain, is that the res for the 'cloned' monitor? [01:09] bibi__, well, i would suggest that anyway, but, you seem to know what you are doing , and if you know for sure where to install and what to mount others as,,, well its up to you,,, [01:09] got a problem, firefox always starts in offline mode and so does epiphany [01:09] how can i solve that??

[01:58] wine* [01:58] poseidon: no, theres 2 ubuntu releases / year, 1 in april, one in octobre. i don't think they are dependent on debian releases [01:58] DroP-PSyChoSiS /join #winehq [01:58] keithclark: it maybe a bad idea, but i usually backup my info and do a format and reinstall at that point [01:58] Magicdead yes, each release takes a snapshot of debian unstable, then builds on that [01:58] kk ty [01:58] Jack_Sparrow: yea but when I try to "check" i get the same errors as in "apt-get update" [01:58] Anything that I run in OpenGL flickers, is there a fix for this? [01:59] greenthumb: Yeah, I thought running Linux was supposed to stop that nonsense. [01:59] ye [01:59] Keith_M_ usually you have to disable compiz to get decent open gl in my experience [01:59] its coz ur settings are set wrong [01:59] Magicdead, what about the packages? I'm pretty sure that ubuntu packages are dependent on debian packages. Where do they take the packages from (from stable/unstable/testing/etc) [01:59] keithclark: i haven't had to do it since i switched over to Linux though, last time was in windoze [01:59] nickrud: compiz ruins opengl? [01:59] it flickers coz ur visuel effects are set to extra [01:59] set it to noce [01:59] none* [01:59] xai you would be better off with a fresh install of a new release.. there are lots of megs of dl's between where you are and the current release [01:59] Keith_M_ it's been known to, yes [02:00] greenthumb: this will be the third time for me. [02:00] Hi. I am brand new to ubuntu trying to setup wpa_supplicant. I have install teh 8.4 er whatever the kde4 packages are. I have copied over my interfaces file from a working debian install and setup the wpa_supplicant.conf. Now it will not grab an address form dhcp once it connects to the network. What is the problem? [02:00] Keith_M_ if you're running compiz, try getting more info in #compiz-fusion [02:00] keithclark: ouch [02:00] Compiz is horrible. How do a bunch of psuedo bubbles help you effectivley work on your pc? [02:00] Jack_Sparrow: I can't do that.. 2000 miles away. [02:00] greenthumb: Yeah, I never did it once with XP. [02:01] anyone got there 650 to work as a modem on there ubuntu machine? [02:01] xai you can use old-releases.ubuntu.com to get the latest version of the update manager, then you should be able to upgrade. See the following [02:01] !upgrade [02:01] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes [02:01] poseidon: well some compiz stuff actually helps, like the one that arranges all windows. the rest is just to show of ;) [02:01] xai http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ [02:02] greenthumb: nothing but problems since upgrading to 8.04. I think this is Canonical's Vista [02:02] Magicdead, I have dual screens so I don't have a problem with screen space. I would rather show off my new rendering engine or 3d game instead ;) [02:02] keithclark Please take down the attitude a notch and ask your question if you are here for help [02:02] Jack_Sparrow you have issues with hardy? [02:02] I like to show off my work, not others ;) [02:03] Jack_Sparrow I sure don't [02:03] Jack_Sparrow: will do. [02:03] nickrud MOst of my boxes are still gutsy, I have a few hardy.. but no reason to change what is working fine for the most part [02:03] Help: when I use the command: sudo apt-get install it says "E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg received a seg fault" [02:03] help! [02:04] norty_: make sure you have all other instances of apt closed [02:04] norty_ what was the complete error? copy it to paste.ubuntu.com [02:04] I only have to comps. One with debina unstable/xp and another with KfreeBSD/ubuntu hardy :) [02:04] nickrud, that is the complete error [02:04] norty_: synaptic, add/remove, apt-get, aptitude, etc [02:04] norty_ What changes have you made to your sources.list [02:04] Changed http to ftp in sources.list on edgy seems to work well.
