| Jordan_U | Leefmc, Don't know what all the options are here but an example command for x264 is "mencoder input.avi -o output.avi -ovc x264 -x264encopts bitrate=3000 pass=1 nr=2000" | 00:00 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, Ahh, nr is noise reduction, I think the rest are self explanitory | 00:01 |
| tj83 | ryan_, i really dont know... | 00:01 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: Ooo itsactually doing something | 00:01 |
| ryan_ | tj83: no errors in xorg.0 | 00:01 |
| ryan_ | tj83: No problem. Thanks for trying to help. I appreciate it. :D | 00:01 |
| koshari | ryan_ that tainting message is a political statement, not an error | 00:02 |
| ryan_ | koshari: thanks | 00:02 |
| tj83 | ryan_, you see... linux hates non-free software :) | 00:03 |
| koshari | ryan_: so you are running the nvidia restricted driver then, ? | 00:03 |
| tj83 | koshari, yes he is | 00:03 |
| koshari | ryan_ so you installed it withthe automatic driver manager? | 00:04 |
| sun01tech | If Linux becomes popular as windows will there be viruses for Linux | 00:04 |
| koshari | ryan_ what card is it and does glxgears give errors and what framerate in the default size are you getting | 00:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sun01tech no | 00:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !virus | 00:05 |
| ubottu | A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 00:05 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: So does the mov file format need anything? My goal is to not only have it work as flawless for me as it did in windows & QT, but to have it work flawlessly over the web. I assume using .mov is part of this, but is it? | 00:05 |
| koshari | sun01tech sure there will, but they wont do much without root access. | 00:05 |
| Jyrgazud | Trying to get my wireless card up and running, dhclient wlan0 mutters about there already being a pid and killing it, then tries to get a dhcpoffer and goes to sleep. I tried to go up to network manager and go to wlan0 and hit 'configure' and it said, 'this interface does not exist' | 00:05 |
| Jyrgazud | I am trying to use ndiswrapper to connect | 00:05 |
| Jordan_U | sun01tech, Very unlikely, there will however likely be trogans which no operating system can defend against completely | 00:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sun01tech You will always be able to find malicious programs if you download random things off the internet. But staying withing the repos will not be a problem | 00:06 |
| ryan_ | koshari: Yes, automatic driver manager. | 00:06 |
| ryan_ | Koshari: Nvidia 8600gt | 00:06 |
| koshari | ryan_: give glxgears a run | 00:07 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, Quicktime can view h.264 in an avi container just as well as in a quicktime container, mencoder does however seem to support .mov container | 00:07 |
| ryan_ | Koshari: glxgears gives no errors. | 00:07 |
| ryan_ | =~ 6500 fps. | 00:07 |
| koshari | ryan_: framerate? | 00:07 |
| === DarkAudi1 is now known as DarkAudit | ||
| koshari | ryan_: that card should be a LOT faster than that, | 00:08 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: I got an outputted mov, and it seems to play, imma upload it to the web and see if it works on my windows box. (No sound though, i'm vnc'n) | 00:08 |
| ryan_ | koshari: it just jumped to 11k fps. | 00:08 |
| Josdell | hey guys I'm trying to install remastersys but it won't work because i dont have mkisofs so i tried installing cdrtools but i dont think it worked, any help installing remastersys? | 00:08 |
| koshari | ok thats better, well it looks like the restricted drivers are functioning fine, are you using compiz or matacity | 00:08 |
| ryan_ | compiz. | 00:09 |
| ryan_ | koshari: compiz | 00:09 |
| koshari | can you change to metacity and see ifthere is a diffe? | 00:09 |
| GUN-RocketGib | Are you guys talking about getting Compiz to work on an ATI Radeon Xpress card? | 00:09 |
| Josdell | Any help? | 00:09 |
| ryan_ | koshari: how can I change? | 00:09 |
| koshari | btw how did you install compiz? | 00:09 |
| GUN-RocketGib | I need some help getting Visual Effects enabled... I have 8.04 | 00:10 |
| rsk | koshari: it's installed by default | 00:10 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, The most common problem I have had with transcoding ( in quicktime pro ) is that the sound and video did not sync correctly, so make sure you check that | 00:10 |
| GUN-RocketGib | My video card is an ATI Radeon Xpress 200M | 00:10 |
| koshari | rsk i know it is but some people install beryl and also advanced settings manager and enable other pulguins | 00:11 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: K thanks. (Though i actually never had any problems) | 00:11 |
| ilembitov | Hi, all. Are the customized Dell images for 8.04 available somewhere on the Web? I need my Broadcom wi-fi to work out-of-box, otherwise I won't be able to connect to the Internet | 00:11 |
| Josdell | Are there any alternatives to remastersys? | 00:11 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: Also, i hope mencoder can make progressive downloads possible? That is, they download as they play? (mov h264) | 00:11 |
| Josdell | ilembitov: you have to enable the restricted drivers or ndiswrapper | 00:12 |
| Dezine | I'm trying to get dual screens set up. I have an nvidia card, try setting it up via nvidia-settings and I can get them both to work but one of my screens keeps flickering on and off | 00:12 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: Hmm nope, QT Pro on my windows box doesn't recognize the .mov | 00:12 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, I think that is a feature of the player rather than the codec / container but I may be wrong | 00:12 |
| koshari | ryan_ metacity --replace | 00:12 |
| ilembitov | Josdell: the problem is, that I won't be able to download it, since I don't have means for wired connection in my house, only wireless | 00:12 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, :( | 00:12 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: Trying avi in a sec | 00:13 |
| koshari | ryan_ and to change back to compiz , compiz --replace | 00:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dezine Are you trying to use xinerama | 00:13 |
| Dezine | I think it's twinview | 00:13 |
| ryan_ | koshari: sorry, I dropped off internet while you gave explaination. | 00:13 |
| powertool08 | Does anyone here use Enlightenment DR17? I can't copy any output from xterm, right click unhilights it, ctrl-c doesn't types C at prompt | 00:13 |

| Jordan_U | powertool08, Middle click | 00:14 |
| Dezine | Why would this one be suggested on every site I find? | 00:14 |
| ryan_ | koshari: OKay, thanks | 00:14 |
| koshari | ryan_ and compiz --replace to change back | 00:14 |
| Josdell | ilembitov: switch to Windows, dowload the ndiswrapper to a USB Drive and while you're at it, get the drivers from the WIndows system, yes that's where you get them, and then switch to Ubuntu, install ndiswrapper, select the drivers, modprobe ndiswrapper, and you're done, or there might be something else but thats what the internet is for | 00:14 |
| powertool08 | Jordan_U: thanks | 00:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dezine Because xinerama doesnt work with compiz | 00:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | on nvidia | 00:15 |
| ryan_ | koshari: same troubles. | 00:15 |
| Dezine | Ok.. so I should try xinerama? | 00:15 |
| Dezine | I don't need fancy effects | 00:15 |
| Josdell | Are there any alternatives to remastersys or could someone help me install mkisofs | 00:15 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: The avi doesn't seem to be web compatible with QT Pro, and when downloaded, an error occurs. Jeez i hate encoding heh | 00:15 |
| Jyrgazud | I tried to use 'dhclient wlan0' at the command line and it gave me "No working leases in persistent database - sleeping." What might cause this? | 00:15 |
| snova | Dezine: trying to choose a dvd player? i just got here. | 00:16 |
| sonne | Anybody runs Ununtu on a laptop with Nvidia video card? | 00:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !xinerama | 00:16 |
| ubottu | xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead | 00:16 |
| koshari | ryan_: well that would seem to eliminate compiz and restricted drivers.... | 00:16 |
| Bllz | how can i sync a third generation nano with my banshee library? It's one of the ones with the new firmware and I heard there was some sort of workaround, but I really can't seem to find much about it. | 00:16 |
| koshari | sonne yes, here with a 7200go | 00:16 |
| Dezine | snova, trying to set up dual screen.. I get it with nvidia-settings but one of the monitors keeps flickering on and off | 00:16 |
| sonne | koshari: does the hibernate feature works? | 00:16 |
| ryan_ | koshari: Okay. | 00:16 |
| koshari | sonne dont know i dont use it | 00:16 |
| snova | Dezine: ah. for a moment, i thought xinerama was a video player. | 00:16 |
| ryan_ | koshari: Thanks. | 00:16 |
| Dezine | nope | 00:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Josdell That page renders here just fine | 00:16 |
| Dezine | well I don't think so | 00:17 |
| snova | Dezine: but not only do i not have an nvidia card, i only have one monitor, so i can't help. | 00:17 |
| Dezine | thanks anyway | 00:17 |
| koshari | ryan_: try a live session and see if the prob persists, you may have a xorg issue | 00:17 |
| hrodriguess | Can someone help me? I'm having some problems with the openchrome video driver | 00:17 |
| Dezine | I bought an lcd awhile ago and decided to hook up the old crt | 00:17 |
| sonne | koshari: Hibernate and sleep are two useful featurs and they doesn't work after installing nvidia driver | 00:17 |
| ryan_ | koshari: Okay will do. If I have a xorg issue, does that mean copy from the live session? | 00:18 |
| Josdell | Is there another way of creating an ISO of my system without remastersys | 00:18 |
| aguitel | when i run ntfs-config cannot check internal drives | 00:18 |
| Bllz | anybody know how i can sync an ipod nano (third generation = troublesom firmware) with an ubuntu music player? | 00:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sonne Due to known problems in the video driver.. some of them have workarounds.. | 00:19 |
| koshari | Josdell reconstructor? | 00:19 |
| sonne | Jack_Sparrow: I think ubuntu must do better for Laptops. thats a shame | 00:19 |
| Josdell | thanks koshari, i'll look into it | 00:19 |
| sonne | Jack_Sparrow: Perhaps company's shame | 00:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sonne Has nothing to do with ubuntu.. and everything to do with the drivers from nvidia | 00:20 |
| Bllz | josdell: reconstructor is good i've used it before... what exactly are you trying to do? | 00:20 |
| koshari | ryan_ make a copy of the xorg.conf file from the live session , back up your hdd version of it, and then copy the saver one from the live session, and see if that helps | 00:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bllz reconstructor will not create a livecd of his install | 00:20 |
| sonne | Jack_Sparrow: Yes but why they don't test it when they know there are lots of laptops out there with Nvidia cards | 00:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sonne You need to go to #ubuntu-offtopic to continue the discussion | 00:21 |
| sonne | Jack_Sparrow: ok | 00:21 |
| ryan_ | koshari: Okay, I'll give that a shot if it works. Thank you. | 00:21 |
| Bllz | jack_sparrow: is he trying to save his custom config files or just have an installation cd with different apps and such installed? | 00:22 |
| Josdell | Bllz: create an ISO of my system | 00:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bllz I know what reconstructor does.. I worked on it with seveas | 00:22 |
| ryan_ | koshari: what directory is xorg.conf in again? | 00:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | /etc/X11 | 00:23 |
| koshari | ryan_ ect/X11 | 00:23 |
| ryan_ | Thank you much. | 00:23 |
| Bllz | jack_sparrow: didn't mean to challenge you... i was just unclear on what josdell was trying to do, but I guess I'll just buzz off... | 00:23 |
| ryan_ | I'll let you know if it works. | 00:23 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: This looks close, but ofcourse i get some errors ;P http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=643334 | 00:23 |
| Josdell | Bllz: I'm tryying to make an ISO with my configurations and apps but without my home/joseph folder, will it work? | 00:23 |
| Bllz | josdell: i remember seeing a thread in ubuntuforums about something like that. let me see if i can find it | 00:24 |

| quickscript | what version of the madwifi driver comes with ubuntu 8.04? | 00:24 |
| Josdell | Bllz: okay thanks | 00:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bllz np. based on his original question , he was not trying to do what reconstructor can do... YOu can create a custom cd but there are limitations to what will work and it cant take your live install and make a livecd of it | 00:24 |
| Bllz | jack_sparrow: gotcha. yeah i looked into something similar a while back and gave up... and i remember settling on reconstructor so that i could at least have my own apps... | 00:26 |
| Bllz | but it's not perfect... | 00:26 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bllz We worked hard on reconstructor.. but it does have limitations | 00:26 |
| Josdell | so, can either of you help me get to remastersys | 00:26 |
| molgrum | hey, i have to revert back to an older kernel. how do i get the nvidia drivers to work there? | 00:27 |

| Leefmc | Jordan_U: I'm getting an "unknown codec libxvid" and "unknown code libx264" with ffmpeg, are these codecs a separate download? | 00:29 |
| johnfg | Hi folks | 00:29 |
| shaba1 | Well how do I even view my windows partitions in thunar | 00:29 |
| gerzel | Q: Is there a command to enqueue a file or url into rhythmbox from the shell? Say I want to use a program which will pass a shell command to add a radiostream to my current playlist or radio list. | 00:29 |
| CorpseFeeder | Jack_Sparrow: sorry.. I meant "what the frog?!!!" | 00:29 |
| shaba1 | as far as xbuntu is concered its like they are not even on the machine | 00:29 |
| johnfg | What I've been used to using is a combined linux desktop/server. I need to have both on one box. | 00:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CorpseFeeder there was more in there that is not family friendly text | 00:30 |
| gwp | !netbook | 00:30 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about netbook | 00:30 |
| johnfg | So, my question is, which is the best ubuntu for me to install? Server, then add what I need/want? Or desktop, and install from there what I need? | 00:30 |
| gwp | Have any of you tried Ubuntu Netbook? | 00:30 |
| CorpseFeeder | Jack_Sparrow: yes, probably. | 00:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | johnfg INstall server edition and add desktop to it | 00:31 |
| johnfg | Jack_Sparrow: Is that a whole package add-on available after I install server? | 00:31 |
| koshari | shaba1 you will need to mount them first | 00:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | johnfg sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 00:32 |
| etronik | johnfg: I'd say reverse: 1st destop and add server components as needed :-) | 00:32 |
| johnfg | OK. I'm coming from a redhat/fedora/centos background. | 00:32 |
| johnfg | etronik: Why so? | 00:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | etronik either will work fine.. He can use whatever cd he has | 00:32 |
| etronik | my reasoning being - get a complete desktop and fine tune server components, and with a full desktop component you get easier management | 00:33 |
| Josdell | Bllz: does this guide create an ISO of my system without my home/joseph folder but keep all my configurations? | 00:33 |
| johnfg | I've got one burned and will be burning the other here in a few minutes. | 00:33 |
| koshari | etronik i dont think there is a ubuntu-server metapackage, so one would need to install all the server packages individually | 00:33 |
| Bllz | josdell: i don't think so. it makes a copy of your system | 00:33 |
| Bllz | i'm sure there's got to be a way to exclude your home folder | 00:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | koshari correct | 00:33 |
| Bllz | well... you could just delte it from the chroot before you build the CD... that ought to work | 00:34 |
| aguitel | can't enable write support for internal device (ntfs) in ubuntu hardy | 00:34 |
| johnfg | koshari: That's the way we used to have to do it with the early redhats, before they went commercial. | 00:34 |
| Bllz | josdell: it will keep all of your configs though | 00:34 |
| johnfg | with what etronik mentioned, will the install ubuntu-desktop install all of it? | 00:34 |
| Josdell | Bllz: does it all just end up with an ISO? | 00:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | aguitel You can force it.. but with force you run the risk of corruption of files | 00:34 |
| koshari | johnfg mind you most people may only need to add LAMP and maybe quota to a ubuntutu desktop | 00:35 |
| johnfg | It being the desktop? | 00:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | aguitel http://forum.notebookreview.com/archive/index.php/t-211958.html | 00:35 |
| Bllz | josdell yes | 00:35 |
| CorpseFeeder | how come on my other computer, folders like "pictures", "music", "videos" etc appear under "Places->Bookmarks_>pictures" etc, but on this computer they just appear under "Places->pictures"? What is up with that when both computers are runing the same Ubuntu 8.04? | 00:36 |
| Bllz | josdell or it may just burn it directly to a dvd, you'll have to read | 00:36 |
| Bllz | but it looks like what you were describing | 00:36 |
| Josdell | Bllz: i just want to end up with the ISO i don't want to do the rest of the guide though | 00:36 |
| etronik | johnfg: It really depends you know? what do you need desktop for ? and what server components you need ? depending on the most use you'll make then the decision you take... | 00:36 |
| koshari | CorpseFeeder the bookmark obnes are the ones located in the left panel in nautilas, you may have removed/added some in nautilas on one of the machines | 00:37 |
| Bllz | josdell: what rest of the guide? | 00:37 |
| Bllz | and it makes an iso. i just checked | 00:37 |

| Bllz | josdell: kk. btw the easiest way for you to do it will be to back up your home directory (the one you want to omit) and then delte it | 00:38 |
| Bllz | then restore it when you're done | 00:38 |

| saint-takeshi | hotchika: which emulator? | 00:39 |
| hotchika | pocketnester on my mogul | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hotchika No roms are the illegal part of using an emulator and offtopic in here | 00:39 |
| etronik | Jack_Sparrow: I'm sorry ? dd copy ....? didn't folow you | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | etronik dd is a command | 00:39 |
| CorpseFeeder | koshari: I don't understand.. all those folders are located on the left panel on nautilus anyway. But they don't show up under places->bookmarks. | 00:40 |
| saint-takeshi | they're illegal? | 00:40 |
| johnfg | etronik: I appreciate the advice and the good questions. The one I have for you, or whoever is, will the desktop that's installed 'after' the server, be less than if I just installed desktop? | 00:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | etronik Create ISO of CD Rom... dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/YourUserName/Desktop/file.iso bs=2k | 00:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | saint-takeshi yes, unless you actually OWN the game the rom came from | 00:41 |
| etronik | johnfg: no, I don't think so... | 00:41 |
| hotchika | why are u away saint-takeshi | 00:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | johnfg NOpe.. the same | 00:41 |
| johnfg | OK, then I think that clinches it for now in favor of server first, then install ubuntu desktop. | 00:41 |
| etronik | johnfg: but to be honest, I'd be/feel more assured having installed desktop from the get go... since I'm a Linux kinda noob | 00:41 |

| aidy | apt is trying to install a package version that's not there; i installed lib32asound2 through prevu once, but then i got rid of the prevu packages, but it still tries to install the prevu package, which isn't there, even though it displays the ubuntu version number in the synaptic package list | 00:43 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, Ugh, looks like you might need to compile ffmpeg with x264 support | 00:43 |
| soldierboy | i created a keyboard macro with xmacro and i invoke it with: xmacroplay my.macro | 00:44 |

| ProN00b | ZippyP, those are bound to a domain, right ? | 00:47 |
| Flannel | hoarycripple: Please try and at least be helpful | 00:47 |
| hoarycripple | Flannel, my response was perfectly helpful. man pages are a great source of information. | 00:48 |

| FarmerEdit | so Gnome is the default window manager but I installed the Kubuntu stuff earlier through a terminal, but the window manager is still Gnome and im not sure how to swtich?? | 00:51 |
| aidy | can i somehow clear the apt package cache | 00:51 |
| ZippyP | I paid 100 $ a yr for my client that posts SS numbers and Credit Card #s on a form. You have to make the site safe and encrypt the data. What are u trying to secure? | 00:51 |
| aidy | because it thinks there's a package with a higher version avaiable | 00:52 |
| aidy | while that isn't actually there | 00:52 |
| Flannel | aidy: sudo apt-get clean | 00:52 |
| Flannel | aidy: but, apt-cache policy [package] might give you more useful information in troublehsooting why it thinks its there | 00:53 |

| Jordan_U | Leefmc, If you really need quicktime pro it will probably run in wine | 01:08 |
| hoarycripple | aidy, are you mixing apt sources? from where are you trying to install the software? | 01:08 |
| Flannel | aidy: What versions of libasound2 are showing in policy? | 01:08 |

| aidy | hoarycripple: Flannel I once installed it through prevu, but now i got rid of the prevu repository | 01:09 |
| DIL | youze ghize an ghirls iz so smart on this thingy | 01:10 |
| aidy | hoarycripple: Flannel but it's still trying to install the prevu version | 01:10 |
| Flannel | aidy: Ah, you'll need to remove the prevu version that is already installed | 01:10 |
| aidy | so if just could clean that out somewhere | 01:10 |
| Kidfork | How do i get cinelerra to have its titles on only 1 part of the movie not the entire movie | 01:10 |

| aidy | Flannel: that's the thing | 01:10 |
| Flannel | aidy: What did you install via prevu? | 01:10 |
| hoarycripple | aidy, did you apt-get update after removing the source? | 01:10 |
| m1r | Gaming4JC: disable cd-rom from /etc/apt/sources.list then try again | 01:10 |
| aidy | hoarycripple: sure. | 01:10 |
| aidy | Flannel: lib32asound2 | 01:11 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: Mind emailing me, or something when its done? Also, will it have .mov and qt-faststart capabilities? | 01:11 |
| noobuntu | agentjk: did you select root and swap partitions? | 01:11 |
| Flannel | aidy: I imagine you installed libasound2 as well, which is what the issue is with | 01:11 |
| Flannel | aidy: There is no current problem with lib32asound, only its dependencies | 01:11 |
| Jordan_U | Leefmc, If I can figure out how to enable them :) | 01:11 |
| Leefmc | Jordan_U: Any experience with this? | 01:12 |

| GUN-RocketGib | I think it's moreover that ATI expired the shelf life of this particular model. | 01:18 |

| GUN-RocketGib | :p | 01:18 |
| agentjk | let me check | 01:18 |

| L1nc01n | Hey does anyone know what to do once I have un-"tar"ed sauerbraten? | 01:19 |
| noobuntu | agnetjk: when you select your drive (disk) mannually, you must also tell the installer where to mount, and also select swap partition (this must be separated partition from your installation partition) | 01:20 |
| noobuntu | agentjk: the place to mount is / (just type slash sign into field) | 01:20 |
| Bunset | Flannel: it does include ftp server? I dont see | 01:20 |
| Drk_Guy | Hi everybody! | 01:21 |
| Gaming4JC | hi | 01:21 |
| agentjk | noobuntu: okay, will it set the swap for me? | 01:21 |
| noobuntu | agentjk: i'm not sure if these two must be on the same drive, but maybe someone here knows more | 01:21 |
| Flannel | Bunset: You didn't ask about an FTP server, there are a number of FTP servers in the repos. Or you can use sftp, which is extremely simple to set up | 01:21 |
| Gaming4JC | Drk_guy: (or others) would you trust this? http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ | 01:22 |

| poseidon | hvgotcodes, it's probably a javascript that sets the tables to be displayed or something ;) | 01:28 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, Try to remove it, sudo dpkg remove ... --force may help | 01:29 |
| hvgotcodes | poseidon: it most certainly is. whats wierd is noscripts has worked till this point. i think they have a busted newest version | 01:29 |

| brad_ | my internet dropped while trying to update the wlassistant package and it broke, now I can't get internet to work, is there a way i can download the package and transfer? | 01:29 |
| Gaming4JC | probably that modem driver... but eh I dunno what it's package name is called. | 01:30 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, An incomplete configuration of a package won't allow you to install anything else | 01:30 |
| poseidon | Gaming4JC, try running apt-get -f install | 01:30 |
| Gaming4JC | brad_: Yes http://packages.ubuntu.com/ download from there and transfer using CD-Rom or something. :) | 01:30 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, Apt's resolution system is very though on that | 01:30 |

| barslow | hi, im trying to revert to firefox 2.0 in ubuntu 8.04 and i cannot install addons | 01:32 |
| Gaming4JC | Drk_Guy: ok... E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. (running apt-get) | 01:32 |
| barslow | firefox 3 is a complete diasaster | 01:32 |
| Cusoon959 | FriedCPU, no it's real, it restarts Xorg. Ctrl-Alt-Backspace :) | 01:33 |
| Cusoon959 | barslow, yup :|/ | 01:33 |

| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, Can you boot int he old kernel? | 01:33 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, That may help out | 01:33 |
| barslow | Cusoon959: can you help me out | 01:33 |
| Gaming4JC | Drk_guy: doubt it. :-/ | 01:33 |
| norbi | Hello, this is a very weird problem that I have. Been using Ubuntu/Linux since 8.04. Every now and then, when I log in, what I think to be the refresh rate is wrong. Some of the symptoms I get is around the windows the edges seem to shake. There are lines going up and down on the edges, it's very hard to explain. Is there anything I can do to diagnose this problem. As I mentioned, this happens once in about 50 | 01:33 |
| norbi | boot-ups. Thanks for any input. | 01:33 |
| Cusoon959 | barslow, Well what's your problem? :) | 01:33 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, you DO have the kernel headers | 01:33 |
| noobuntu | barslow: works fine for me, no probs what so ever | 01:34 |
| barslow | Cusoon959: i'm trying to switch bak to FF2 and i cant install any addons, tabmix plus, player plugin etc etc | 01:34 |
| clintchance | Guys is it possible to make a dlink do dd-wrt? | 01:34 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, But for an older kernel, if you boot up in that kernel, the headers will coincide, and the package will configure well ;) | 01:34 |
| Gaming4JC | Drk_guy: yes, I have 2.6.24.16.18_i386 on there | 01:34 |
| fritzophrenic | heh, guess not | 01:34 |
| Drk_Guy | Gaming4JC, Think bout it, brb | 01:34 |
| noobuntu | i want to see specific running processes, how to filter them with "top" command in terminal? thx (any way to do this?) | 01:35 |
| DIL | is xen and virtual box the same product | 01:35 |
| avis | clintchance, try #dd-wrt. also go to their homepage this is ubuntu support | 01:35 |
| Gaming4JC | Drk_guy: the header... anyhow how would I boot up in another kenerl | 01:35 |
| Cusoon959 | barslow, sorry I can't help =/ | 01:35 |
| Gaming4JC | ok for brb... | 01:35 |
| Cusoon959 | On occasion (sometimes as frequently as once an hour), gnome-terminal will open with a blank (frozen, not invisible) window, there will be a grey bar where the menus should be, and I have to terminate the process. I've tried waiting it just stays there blank. Once this happens, nautilus, gedit, and even some of the file-related dialog boxes, and possibly the pop-down calendar from the gnome panel all crash in the same way, creating | 01:35 |
| Cusoon959 | a blank box, and in the case of anything associated with the gnome panel, freezing the panel entirely. Restarting GDM doesn't help. I've tried everything. There seems to be nothing logged showing that there was any problem. Rebooting is the only solution. | 01:35 |

| fritzophrenic | okay, so with the command, sudo mount -o loop /path/to/wubbifile /mnt/disk, "/path/to/wubbifile" would be the file containing the "virtual disk" I want to mount, and "/mnt/disk" would be the path I would use to access it after it is mounted? | 01:51 |
| m-c_ | Cusoon959: As a last resort, you can reinstall, after backing up your /home | 01:51 |

| DIL | Leefmc: imho it is best to read and do - learning linux is no like reading a good novel | 01:53 |

| ZippyP | Go figure... Thanks I was following some directions and that is how it was listed. | 02:05 |
| garbarano | thank you | 02:05 |
| yoyon | garbarano: look for the default = line | 02:05 |
| matthew_ | odd-rationale: yes, I remove the module using the recovery console from an older kernel version, because I can't open a Terminal in my current version after I add the module | 02:05 |
| d4t4min3r | what is that | 02:05 |
| d4t4min3r | avis: flashsupport | 02:05 |
| garbarano | aha | 02:06 |
| avis | d4t4min3r, its called libflashsupport | 02:06 |
| garbarano | i don't think i've edited text files since the DOS days | 02:06 |
| Flannel | Bunset: ssh (sftp as well) uses the users of the system. So itd be your login and password | 02:06 |
| yoyon | garbarano: remember it starts at 0 not 1 | 02:06 |
| Ajax | su root, gedit | 02:06 |
| obf213 | hmm, does ff3 open aim links correctly for people? it just does nothing for me | 02:06 |
| garbarano | i still remember the line i used to edit to get expanded memory for Wing Commander 2 | 02:06 |

| Bunset | trying then... Flannel ;) | 02:07 |
| garbarano | got it, yoyo. thanks! | 02:07 |
| Odd-rationale | matthew_: i've heard problems of ndiswrapper doing things like that before... i don't know whether there is a good fix... try googleing your card and see... | 02:07 |
| yoyon | garbarano: np | 02:07 |
| matthew_ | odd-rationale: should I google the card name or the name of the chipset? | 02:08 |

| Odd-rationale | matthew_: hmm. how did you find that out? | 02:16 |
| SeaPhor | matthew_, i got the one that says "works out of the box",,, and it does! | 02:16 |
| matthew_ | odd-rationale: by using it when they didn't have it secured :) | 02:17 |
| Odd-rationale | matthew_: if you want to try for anonymous, use privoxy, tor, and macchanger. | 02:18 |

| Odd-rationale | matthew_: well, i'm not too sure how well your card is supported... | 02:21 |
| Odd-rationale | matthew_: did you follow a howto? which one? | 02:21 |
| matthew_ | odd-rationale: about a 100 HowTos (well, not really, but a large mix), I figured most of it out for myself, played around with the drivers, eventually finding that the RealTek X64 drivers are the only ones that "work", however, they cause my current problem | 02:23 |

| matthew_ | odd-rationale: I _might_ have just figured it out, it appears that I need to blacklist the linux driver, could this be what caused the problem? | 02:25 |

| kaliMastah | Ajax, theres no such thing as free when in terms of hardware | 02:27 |

| matthew_ | odd-rationale: After I modprobe, nothing works, all commands hang, so I have to go into the recovery console of the older Kernel (which doesn't load the module) and remove it | 02:28 |

| LSD|Ninja | Fryguy--: AC'97 in particular (the largest cause of the "no hw mixing" issue) has been around for 10 years, there's simply no excuse for ALSA to not have made the software mixer an integral part of the sound system from the very beginning | 03:16 |
| LSD|Ninja | Fryguy--: as in, enabled by default with no user interaction whatsoever | 03:16 |
| Fryguy-- | LSD|Ninja: there's plenty of reasons to not make it part of the soundsystem from the very beginning | 03:16 |
| marshall | when i click on guest machines in my virtualbox guest window, nothing happens. any ideas why? | 03:16 |
| Fryguy-- | 1. is development effort required, 2. there were other solutions already in place (arts, esd, etc) | 03:16 |
| sargento | Fryguy, ¿can you give me a hand? | 03:16 |
| Fryguy-- | sargento: no | 03:16 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy_: that will show you how to set it up for using an existing windows parition, but it is a bit complicated if you've already installed a bunch of driver because when you create a new hardware profile in windows it is going to copy your old one and you will also have issues with driver software that tries to load at start up not seeing their hardware | 03:17 |
| sargento | FryGuy: Thanks, ¿any suggestions where I can find a solution or the error message that doesn't allow me to start-up normally? | 03:17 |
| Fryguy-- | sargento: no | 03:18 |
| timmy_ | I see.. | 03:18 |
| MrLinux | How do I color the bash ? | 03:18 |
| Fryguy-- | MrLinux: what specifically do you want to color | 03:18 |
| psyber | hello everyone | 03:18 |
| timmy_ | deeceefar2 so it's not even goign to be worth moving the existing partition?! | 03:19 |
| MrLinux | Fryguy-- : to make it color [root@server2 ~]# | 03:19 |
| sargento | ¿Does anybody know another IRC where I can ask my question and get response? | 03:19 |
| GUN-RocketGib | MrLinux: Grab a crayon? | 03:19 |
| Fryguy-- | MrLinux: set PS1 to what you want to set it to, with embedded colorcodes set how you want. Plenty of tutorials available on google for identifying these colorcodes and how to use them | 03:19 |
| psyber | anyone in here know about running 2 monitors with an nvidea card? | 03:19 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy_: also it says not to install guest additions on that guide, but I've had no problems with them, I think that is an outdated warning | 03:19 |
| Itai-Michaelson | people - sorry for being so repetative but i really need a simple favour - send me the unetbootin file to install ubuntu from windows .its blocked here in china | 03:19 |
| GUN-RocketGib | :p | 03:19 |
| timmy_ | okay | 03:19 |
| Fryguy-- | !repeat | Itai-Michaelson | 03:19 |
| ubottu | Itai-Michaelson: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 03:19 |
| Fryguy-- | Itai-Michaelson: saying you are sorry you are doing it doesn't make it right to do it | 03:19 |
| ricotecnico | hi everybody! | 03:19 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy_: it works great for me, I develop in visual studio in windows partition all day long without problems | 03:20 |
| J-a-k-e | hello all, ai anyone able to help me out with grub? | 03:20 |
| timmy_ | okay.. | 03:20 |
| Fryguy-- | J-a-k-e: ask a question, don't ask to ask | 03:20 |
| timmy_ | was fixing the drivers no hassle? | 03:20 |
| Pixeltim1 | Itai-Michaelson: if sourceforge is blocked, inetboot is not gonna work since it gets its files from sourceforge | 03:21 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy_: I just let the driver software crash on start up and close the error messages, not really too much of a hassel, but the ideal way is to reinstall windows and make the hardware profile copy before you've loaded any drivers on | 03:21 |
| Itai-Michaelson | Pixeltim1, i thought it gets it from the apt repo | 03:22 |
| Overand | Is there a good guide for setting up samba shares via commandline, as in on ubuntu-server? | 03:22 |
| Overand | I'd rather not have to use something like webmin | 03:23 |
| Fryguy-- | Overand: install it, create smb.conf, and you are done | 03:23 |
| Fryguy-- | plenty of documentation available for the contents of smb.conf | 03:23 |
| Fryguy-- | both in manpages, /usr/doc, and google | 03:23 |
| Fryguy-- | /usr/share/doc, sorry | 03:23 |
| Itai-Michaelson | Pixeltim1, how about wubi ? i thought that is an official part of ubuntu now | 03:23 |
| timmy_ | mkdir: cannot create directory `/home/timmy/.VirtualBox': File exists | 03:23 |
| timmy_ | I can't find that file | 03:23 |
| timmy_ | it's from my previous attempt to migrate the existing windows | 03:23 |
| Fryguy-- | timmy_: what do you mean you can't find it, it's right there you just found it.. | 03:24 |
| timmy_ | er | 03:24 |
| Overand | It's too bad they don't have a nice frontend like used in the workstation versions of ubuntu, with ncurses | 03:24 |
| timmy_ | it's not showing up | 03:24 |
| Overand | timmy_: if you type 'ls' you won't see it | 03:24 |
| deeceefar2 | I'm trying to change the default shortcut for the home folder from: Alt+Home to Super+E, does anyone know how to do this, I've changed it in keyboard shortcuts but that doesn't change it for some reason | 03:24 |
| Fryguy-- | Overand: there's swat | 03:24 |
| Overand | files with a period in the beginning are 'hidden' | 03:24 |
| sargento | ¿Where Can I Find Start-up errors? | 03:24 |
| timmy_ | thanks | 03:24 |
| Overand | timmy_: ls -a will show even hidden files | 03:24 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy_: anything with . in front of it in ubuntu is a hidden file | 03:24 |
| Overand | and there's probably an equivalent option in the graphical file browser too | 03:25 |
| Fryguy-- | ctrl-h i think | 03:25 |
| deeceefar2 | yip | 03:25 |
| J-a-k-e | ok, well I have 3 hard drives, an ide 160 gig master with windows on it, a 30gig slave with ubuntu 8.04, and a 320 gig sata. Trying to boot ubuntu from the grub menu gives an "error 17" message" and if I try to boot windows off any drive but my 30gig slave (have tried reinstalling grub on to all drives) i get an error 13 message | 03:25 |
| Fryguy-- | J-a-k-e: and have you looked up what those errors mean? | 03:25 |
| Overand | (I'd rather not have to use samba at all, I'm probably going to mostly use NFS, but there are occasionally times i'llwant windows users to be able to read files | 03:26 |
| Overand | after mucking about with NFS, samba is pretty hairy, heh | 03:26 |
| Fryguy-- | Overand: it's harder than nfs, sure, but it's pretty straightforward for basic configurations | 03:26 |
| Overand | Fryguy--: 'swat' looks good | 03:26 |
| Overand | Fryguy--: yeah - i haven't touched it since i was a newbie, ala 2003 on a debian box, so I can probably figure it out | 03:27 |

| timmy | virtualbox ah nvm I'll just google | 03:28 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy: you have to install suns version | 03:28 |
| deeceefar2 | timmy: also some of those commands have capitals in them so make sure you either copy it or type it in exactly as written | 03:28 |
| rwg | Could Ubuntu handle an IRCd? | 03:30 |
| timmy | okay | 03:30 |

| GUN-RocketGib | yes | 03:30 |

| GUN-RocketGib | Ubuntu handles an IRCd quite well, depending on your hardware | 03:30 |
| timmy | what's the apt-get command for installing java? | 03:30 |
| timmy | or is it not in the repositories | 03:30 |
| Leefmc | Question: Is there a list comparing the best linux friendly video formats? I need one that supports frame by frame very well. | 03:30 |
| rwg | Is Ubuntu RPM based? | 03:31 |
| mindrape | rwg - nope... .deb as in Debian. | 03:31 |
| Leefmc | rwg: I'm sure ubuntu server could handle an IRCd, no idea why it couldn't | 03:31 |
| J-a-k-e | Fryguy--: this has only been a problem since I upgraded from 7.10 when 8.04 was released in April, error 17 refers to "can not mount selected partition" and error 13 refers to"Invalid or unsupported executable format" also I have already tried re-installing ubuntu. If I reinstall grub the problem seems to go away until i next restart | 03:31 |
| cgantelope | Hello. I am very new. I have blender 2.45 from the add/remove list on my machine and I'm trying to get 2.46. They (blender) says copy the .blender file to your home file after extraction. But it doesn't seem to be copying it, or extracting it. I can't tell which. And I have no clue. Any help would be really appreciated. It is probably something dumb since,as I said, I am new to Ubuntu. | 03:31 |
| psyber | anyone in here know about dual displays with nvidea? | 03:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | psyber: i do. | 03:32 |
| Leefmc | cgantelope: Not entirely sure what your problem is, but if your trying to get 2.46 it is not in the main ubuntu repos. Download it from blender.org | 03:32 |
| rwg | thanks | 03:32 |
| timmy | oh nvm it's in add/remove | 03:32 |
| psyber | IndyGunFreak: is it possible to configure it to run the same was as windows? Specifically each display is independent? | 03:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | psyber: you mean like each window is its own desktop? | 03:33 |
| cgantelope | Leefmc: Thank you. I have downloaded it from blender.org, but I don't know how to use what I got. | 03:33 |
| psyber | IndyGunFreak: yes, and that the displays have different resolutions | 03:34 |
| Leefmc | cgantelope: When you extract the folder, open it and you will see a blender executable. Simply run that, and you have your blender :) | 03:34 |
| psyber | IndyGunFreak: ATM I have both displays showing me the same thing | 03:34 |
| sweetgu1 | any GTK familiar programmers around to help some quests? | 03:34 |
| Leefmc | cgantelope: There are methods for installing it on the system, but really they are just masks and file placements. I wouldn't be the one to ask about those though, as i am rather new aswell. | 03:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | psyber: you probably could.. but i'm not sure how, i have mine set up w/ twinview(both monitors make 1 big desktop) | 03:35 |
| * timmy makes sweet love with the working sound and wireless. | 03:35 | |
| timmy | you better not break my heart again baby | 03:35 |
| psyber | IndyGunFreak: can you mouse from 1 display to another... because I cannot | 03:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | psyber: with twinview?.. of course | 03:35 |
| SithRee | psyber, you are set to cloned output | 03:36 |
| psyber | SithRee: in my xorg.conf I have twin view | 03:36 |
| SithRee | you must have "Option" "Cloned" set then | 03:37 |

| sweetgu1 | philosophe: i'm unsure if its the best, btu amarok sounds great | 03:38 |
| Leefmc | philosophe: Depends on the desktop, etc. Many like Amarok, i had problems with that on GNOME, im currently using Rhythmbox | 03:38 |
| timmy | nvm | 03:38 |
| mindrape | philosophe: "best" varies from person to person based on their individual criteria. The VLC player meets my needs | 03:38 |
| timmy | So I just have to completely get rid of virtualbox ose? | 03:38 |

| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 03:39 |

| koshari | philosophe imho i beleive amarok to be superion to rytmox and itunes for large librarys, vlc is even good for little playlists | 03:41 |
| Leefmc | cgantelope: And if you right click the file named "blender", nothing happens? | 03:41 |

| poseidon | b4l7424rk, It should be fine. but if you want to be on the safe side, comment out "#" the repos in /etc/apt/sources.list and add the wine repos then apt-get update. Once you've installed wine you could return it back to normal. | 03:52 |
| mindrape | theDarkAura: it's that way for security reasons... if you really want to be root there are ways but it is NOT adviseable. | 03:52 |
| timmy | oh wait nvm | 03:52 |
| poseidon | Though that may cause some dep problems. | 03:53 |
| wols | !no root | 03:53 |

| theDarkAura | i bet those ubuntu people have the password and are looking at my ... stuff | 03:53 |
| wols | !root | 03:53 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 03:53 |

| Seven_Six_Two | theDarkAura, sudo is safer for most people, and having a superuser that can log in is unnecessary and unsafe. It's possible to enable it, but since it's against Ubuntu's security philosophy, I would suggest reading something like the Linux Administration Handbook | 04:00 |

| alpha255 | :) | 04:00 |
| Shaba1 | Is there a command that will work like arrange icons in windows | 04:00 |

| wols | princeOfCode: if you're so happy with utorrent, then use it | 04:03 |

| matthew___ | Seven_Six_Two, its worked before, i mean, I _did_ install linux | 04:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | princeOfCode, the nvidia drivers are better in linux, but that has nothing to do with the quality of the cards. | 04:10 |
| princeOfCode | Seven_Six_Two: im lookin at some midrange cards for a dual boot desktop | 04:10 |
| Seven_Six_Two | matthew___, doing it once doesn't mean it'll last forever. I once had a cat. Now I don't | 04:10 |

| Seven_Six_Two | princeOfCode, look on the nvidia site under linux drivers to see what the closed source binary drivers support. | 04:11 |

| Seven_Six_Two | nickrud, I don't blame linux. They lasted for about 4 years, and I've burned hundreds of disks with each. | 04:13 |
| matthew___ | Seven_Six_Two, its just plain old "single" (no quotes) right on the kernel right? | 04:13 |

| johnfg | just in the process of installing the server, but had one question (so far). | 04:37 |
| nickrud | Seven_Six_Two it's a fine line sometimes, true | 04:38 |
| johnfg | The partitioning, which I'm doing manually is a little different than I'm used to. | 04:38 |
| johnfg | My question is, do I have to set my /boot partition to actually be bootable for ubuntu? I did set the boot flag to on for my windows partition, but don't usually have to set it when installing linux. | 04:39 |
| nickrud | johnfg no, you don't | 04:39 |
| Seven_Six_Two | nickrud, I get in trouble at work for straying from "support boundaries" as well. | 04:39 |
| johnfg | nickrud, OK, I thought probably not, but didn't want to commit the table until I had made sure. | 04:39 |
| Flannel | johnfg: The only thing you have to do is make sure (if you're using LVM), /boot is not on LVM. Everything else can be. | 04:39 |
| WalloO | johnfg, ubuntu use grub to boot and do not use the bootable partition system. | 04:39 |
| timmy | VMDK: could not create new file '/home/me/.VirtualBox/WindowsXP.vmdk' | 04:40 |

| nickrud | Seven_Six_Two luckily my support work isn't computers at work, but more a full service type of thing. Don't have to worry about lines there ;) | 04:40 |
| johnfg | OK, sounds like I'd got everything right. Do you think that I'll have any problem if I preserver my /home partition? | 04:40 |
| Xpistos | bazhang: I guess so. thanks for the heads up | 04:41 |
| nickrud | johnfg I always preserve the home and carry it over | 04:41 |
| johnfg | preserve. | 04:41 |

| clintchance | Hey guys where can i get more repositories? Isnt there a tool on the ubuntu site that does this? | 04:41 |
| johnfg | nickrud, OK, cool. I think that's what I'll try then. | 04:42 |
| === Guest70911 is now known as emo_boys | ||
| bazhang | clintchance, backports or proposed? | 04:42 |
| WalloO | johnfg, you may not have problem | 04:42 |
| johnfg | nickrud, Do you have ubuntu-desktop installed as well? | 04:42 |
| meXeno | Guten Morgen | 04:42 |
| Seven_Six_Two | johnfg, that's a meta-package | 04:42 |
| clintchance | bazhang... backports? what is | 04:42 |
| clintchance | !backports | 04:42 |
| ubottu | If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 04:42 |
| Xpistos | so here is another question: is vmware working in heron? | 04:43 |
| nickrud | johnfg always, makes thinks simpler. Never use evolution, for example, but it just takes up a tiny bit of space. Having ubuntu-desktop installed makes keeping things in sync easier, since the dev's expect it. | 04:43 |

| nickrud | clintchance what do you mean, a new list of sources? | 04:47 |
| bazhang | amenado, seems unlikely as miro uses http | 04:47 |

| bazhang | clintchance, it is no longer. | 04:48 |
| amenado | bazhang-> its not http, if you download the client, I honestly dont know what port it uses to downloads | 04:48 |
| nickrud | clintchance ah, that was discontinued after feisty(?) because the one Odd-rationale gave you just above was built into ubuntu | 04:48 |
| johnfg | nickrud, Don't know if you were here earlier when I was discussing this, but would you install server first, then install desktop? That's what I'm planning to do. | 04:48 |
| nickrud | johnfg primarily a desktop? | 04:48 |
| bazhang | amenado, hmm; are you getting really slow downloads? I am for sure not throttled and it can be very slow at times. | 04:48 |
| clintchance | ah | 04:48 |
| Odd-rationale | :) | 04:48 |
| johnfg | Both, pretty equal, I'd say. | 04:48 |
| nickrud | johnfg then I'd install the desktop. | 04:49 |
| kevin_ | KCrash cannot reach kdeinit, launching directly. | 04:49 |
| johnfg | nickrud, And then just install what server components I need/want? | 04:50 |
| bazhang | lamp johnfg | 04:50 |
| amenado | bazhang it just kills the client rather crashes, and upon looking at the logs, its says too slow ..happens so many times | 04:50 |

| jeriath | i have a rosewill one and cant find any specific drivers for it and was wondering if there were any generic drivers i could use | 05:06 |
| nickrud | johnfg for the kernel, primarily. I've forgotten the details, but the kernels in server/desktop are somewhat tuned for each environment. | 05:06 |

| alpha255 | christoz hummm let me try | 05:30 |
| PsuedoBob | If nothing else | 05:30 |
| TheLorax | I type in my uname and passwd and then nothing | 05:30 |
| fyreme | I have no luck with wine | 05:30 |

| co-PiloT | hi | 05:31 |
| christoz | alpha255, i'm using this bundle "liferay-portal-tomcat-5.5-jdk5-4.4.2.zip" | 05:31 |
| Josdell | Hello guys, um im trying to make an ISO but mkisofs is replaced by genisoimage but genisoimage didnt come with mkisofs, so I can't use mkisofs, any solutions? | 05:31 |
| TheLorax | Josdell, use mkisofs... | 05:32 |
| sauvin | I HAVE had trouble with wmv and mplayer - there is *nothing* I have that'll play Blue Ray captures done on a Windows machine because they use some new codec. | 05:32 |
| === ben_ is now known as ohaidar | ||
| fyreme | mplayer is installed and it wanted a codec | 05:32 |
| Josdell | TheLorax: I don't have mkisofs | 05:32 |
| alpha255 | christoz i d/l apache-tomcat-6.0.16.zip | 05:32 |
| TheLorax | Josdell, why not? | 05:32 |
| clintchance | Hey guys in the main menu applet. On the right side of it how can i add text to it | 05:33 |
| sauvin | fyreme, what was the codec, do you remember? | 05:33 |
| ZippyP | Need some help with installing (nvidia-gtx-new) drivers Envy does not work due to error in removal of old drivers | 05:33 |
| fyreme | one sec | 05:33 |
| christoz | alpha255, ok tell me if it worked under your fingers :P | 05:33 |
| TheLorax | ZippyP, have you trried without x running? | 05:33 |
| Josdell | TheLorax: I have no idea, but when i type in mkisofs in the Terminal, I get a mkisofs is not installed, you can install it by installing genisoimage. So i try to install genisoimage but the Terminal says it's already installed | 05:34 |
| ohaidar | I have a very bad problem. I installed ubuntu on a separate partition and had vista installed on another. Grub loader wont find vista, and when I try to set the boot flag for the vista partition, it tells me bootmgr is missing. | 05:34 |
| ZippyP | I'm fairly new to this. X server? | 05:34 |
| fyreme | gstreamer but it said it might be illegal? | 05:34 |
| TheLorax | Josdell, install mkisofs....it's a standard tool. apt should have it. search for it | 05:34 |
| unop | Josdell, why not use genisoimage instead ? | 05:34 |
| TheLorax | ZippyP, Ctrl+alt+F1....then ctrl-F7 to get back here | 05:35 |
| sauvin | The legality you're talking about is a civil matter - it involves a licensing issue - it's not a criminal matter. | 05:35 |
| alpha255 | christoz got it woking | 05:35 |
| sauvin | fyreme, tell me, what's in your /usr/lib/codecs? | 05:35 |
| alpha255 | woking = working | 05:35 |
| alpha255 | at least for /me | 05:35 |
| alpha255 | ;) | 05:35 |
| Josdell | TheLorax: It might be because i might not have the multiverse repository enabled, i don't i think do. | 05:36 |
| fyreme | one sec please | 05:36 |
| sauvin | fyreme, I'll give you whole MINUTES. :D | 05:36 |
| ohaidar | Can someone please help? I have a new graphics card coming in the mail tomorrow and I really want to use it with my windows games.. | 05:36 |
| TheLorax | Josdell, I dunno. I don't actually use ubuntu...only on here trying to help my sister "P | 05:36 |
| Josdell | unop: because the guide I'm following uses mkisofs, and I don't know how to replace it with genisoimage | 05:36 |
| christoz | alpha255, hmm...what am i doing wrong...i suppose i should install the same packet | 05:36 |
| alpha255 | TheLorax did you got to a west coast school? | 05:36 |
| TheLorax | alpha255, wtf..... | 05:36 |
| TheLorax | alpha255, no | 05:37 |
| alpha255 | TheLorax i knew someone with an email and nickname like yours | 05:37 |
| Josdell | TheLorax: Oh, lol hanks anyway | 05:37 |
| alpha255 | sorry | 05:37 |
| christoz | alpha255, what are the paths you've entered into the .bashc? | 05:37 |
| Josdell | unop: can you help me? | 05:37 |
| LaserLine | ohaidar: you should just be able to pop in and install the restricted drivers and install wine... as long as the games are wine compatable installing the games is the same as in windows | 05:37 |
| alpha255 | christoz i put it in startup.sh | 05:37 |
| fyreme | no such directory | 05:37 |
| christoz | hmm...in which line please? | 05:37 |
| alpha255 | # $Id: startup.sh 562770 2007-08-04 22:13:58Z markt $ right under this line | 05:37 |
| sauvin | fyreme, I don't remember how to get those codecs from the ubuntu repos (W32codecs, maybe?) - what I did was bop over to the mplayer site, downloaded all the codecs and shoved them into /usr/lib/codecs. | 05:38 |
| clintchance | people. Anyone know ow to add text to the mainmenu on the side like a windows. Although it wont say windows | 05:38 |
| christoz | alpha255, ok i'm on it thanks for your time | 05:38 |
| ohaidar | I have some games installed on my external hard drive like world of warcraft. Will i be able to just mess with some settings and be able to play it? | 05:38 |
| === jaros is now known as ritirisi | ||
| TheLorax | ohaidar, are you talking about wine? | 05:39 |
| alpha255 | christoz no worries | 05:39 |
| alpha255 | i learned too :) | 05:39 |
| ohaidar | yeah | 05:39 |
| fyreme | ls on /usr/lib starts with letter l? | 05:39 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, search wine app databse | 05:39 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, then inside that seach for wow | 05:39 |
| ohaidar | im really new to linux, and to be honest i just want to get back to vista, which wont boot because of installing ubuntu. | 05:39 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, what wont it boot? | 05:40 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, no option? | 05:40 |
| Jester45 | ohaidar: if you formated vista's parttiion you will have to reisntall if not grub will let you boot both | 05:40 |
| ohaidar | yes, grub gives me no option. | 05:40 |
| unop | Josdell, genisoimage --cap -o filename.iso /path/to/directory | 05:40 |
| Josdell | unop: how do I use this? | 05:40 |
| ohaidar | and i tried making the vista partition the boot partition, and it gives me bootmgr not found | 05:40 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, I think grub is in /boot/grub/grub.conf, edit it then reintstall | 05:41 |
| unop | Josdell, at the command line | 05:41 |
| clintchance | wow i dont think anyone has attempted this | 05:41 |
| christoz | alpha255, did you instert this "export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06"? | 05:41 |

| fyreme | sauvin can you check what directory you put the codecs in? | 05:41 |
| Josdell | unop: can we take this to personal chat? | 05:41 |
| ohaidar | i really have no clue what im doing in linux, thelorax, can you please tell me step by step and tell me all the commands? | 05:41 |
| clintchance | hey the main menu has a blue bar on it there for it should be able to be eddited. Anyone know where i could find the file | 05:42 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, sudo mount /boot | 05:42 |
| unop | Josdell, we could but this channel exists so other people can provide input and help you | 05:42 |
| clintchance | looks as if theme set | 05:42 |
| sinn2df | having a problem with my / drive filling up after a few hours of running. when i boot my / partion is is only using 6 gigs, now it is 14 gigs. anyreason why this is happening, where the influx of data is located, and why it is being written to my / partion instead of swap? | 05:42 |
| sauvin | fyreme, I DID check, so as not to give you false advise. My /usr/lib/codecs has all kinds of Windows DLL files, which are the codecs mplayer uses for some of the files it can play. | 05:42 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, nano /boot/grub/grub.conf | 05:42 |
| alpha255 | christoz export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun | 05:42 |
| LaserLine | Anyone here using Empathy for their Instant Messaging? | 05:42 |
| christoz | ok | 05:42 |
| fyreme | hmmm | 05:42 |
| Jester45 | ohaidar: you might have erased vista's bootloader | 05:42 |
| alpha255 | christoz is has to match the actual path | 05:42 |
| TheLorax | ohaidar, but then you're on your own since it's system specific | 05:42 |
| alpha255 | in the file system | 05:42 |
| fyreme | why would I have that directory the sauvin? | 05:42 |
| Josdell | unop: the original command is this: sudo mkisofs -b boot/grub/stage2_eltorito \ | 05:42 |
| Josdell | unop: how would I change it? | 05:43 |
| PsuedoBob | Gah! My Ubuntu live cd won't let me run ubuntu with changes. | 05:43 |
| Jester45 | sinn2df: check and see how big /tmp is and /var | 05:43 |
| sauvin | Fyreme, if you used the Ubuntu repos to download and install Windows codecs, I imagine that's where they would have wound up. | 05:43 |
| ZippyP | <TheLorax> what was that supposed to do besides reboot? | 05:43 |
| ohaidar | i tried booting into my vista install disk and repairing, didnt work. | 05:43 |
| christoz | alpha255, BRAVO it worked | 05:43 |
| unop | Josdell, what kind of iso are you making? or should i ask, what are you making an ISO of? | 05:43 |
| alpha255 | christoz sweeeet! :) | 05:43 |
| fyreme | Ubuntu repos sauvin? | 05:43 |
| christoz | :D | 05:43 |
| Josdell | I am making an ISO of a Live CD | 05:43 |
| PsuedoBob | Er, without changes. | 05:43 |
| clintchance | AH NOT FUNNY its a stupid recurring image..... darn | 05:44 |
| ohaidar | so what would be the best course of action to get vista to work then? | 05:44 |
| sauvin | Erm, this IS the Ubuntu channel, yes? (I"m not crosschatting?) | 05:44 |
| unop | Josdell, err, it's easier if you install mkisofs. run this command. sudo aptitude install mkisofs | 05:44 |
| sinn2df | Jester45: is there a command line way to do that. / is at 100% and cannot open file browser. ls -lh is only giving me the size of 4k for the folders. | 05:44 |
| ohaidar | im talking about doing this from ubuntu | 05:44 |
| Jester45 | sauvin: he is trying to dual boot linux/vista | 05:44 |
| Josdell | unop: will try | 05:44 |
| ohaidar | i have no flipping idea what im doing when using linux | 05:45 |
| sauvin | I thought fyreme was dealing with a wmv/mplayer issue. | 05:45 |
| Jester45 | sinn2df: why cant you open a filebrowser? | 05:45 |
| PsuedoBob | Why won't my livecd work?? | 05:45 |
| unop | Josdell, genisoimage can do it too, but it's much more complex and it takes much longer reading it's manpage (its fairly long) | 05:45 |
| nickrud | ohaidar the simplest way to get vista back (you said you don't want ubuntu?) is to download and use the super grub disk. | 05:46 |
| Josdell | unop: Oh my gosh I can't believe I didn't think to use aptitude at this situation, thank you so much | 05:46 |
| ZippyP | What is up here on this IRC is this hit and run help? Second time someone gives u info then logs off. | 05:46 |

| FloodBot1 | Josdell: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:46 |

| Fungusman | the joystick works under jscalibrator | 05:47 |

| fyreme | Train Signal | 05:50 |
| unop | Josdell, ahh, seems like ubuntu no longer provides the real mkisofs package -- guess you will have to make do with genisoimage | 05:50 |
| sauvin | OK, what do trains and their signals have to do with CDs and wmv files? | 05:50 |
| Josdell | unop: can I find the package online? | 05:50 |
| clintchance | guys, what file do i edit to change the main menu icon? | 05:50 |

| carlos | The present kernel configuration has modules disabled.Type 'make config' and enable loadable module support. | 05:52 |
| carlos | Then build a kernel with module support enabled | 05:52 |
| unop | Josdell, I assume you can, but it appears that genisoimage is replacing mkisofs on most distributions -- which could mean that mkisofs is fairly old and no longer maintained actively | 05:52 |
| carlos | how do i enable loadable module support? | 05:52 |
| ZippyP | Need some help please with re-installing (nvidia-gtx-new) drivers. Envy does not work due to error in removal of old drivers and screwed the system up. now only 800x600 available | 05:52 |

| Flannel | newToLinux: xmms isn't in the repos. xmms2 is, and there are some other things similar, like audacious | 06:00 |
| unop | newToLinux, can't you skip the gyachi-xmms plugin ? | 06:00 |
| newToLinux | i´ve installed xmms2 through synaptic and try to install the plugin back, but it still say dependency not satisfiable | 06:01 |
| fyreme | www.pastebin.com? | 06:01 |
| Flannel | newToLinux: thats because to install it you need xmms, which xmms2 isn't. Is there any alternative you can use? | 06:01 |
| sauvin | Oh, gah, there are more pastebins than I care to count. I use pastebin.ca; you may use whatever you like. | 06:01 |
| newToLinux | Flannel: i don´t know other way to use? | 06:02 |
| unop | newToLinux, did you read what i said up there? xmms is no longer available - so try and skip installing gyachi-xmms | 06:02 |
| coolbam14 | i need help everytime i start ubuntu i get the busybox | 06:02 |
| newToLinux | unop: what does xmms for anyway? | 06:02 |

| coolbam14 | anyone? | 06:03 |
| newToLinux | unop: i see, so it´s not a very important plugin then? | 06:03 |
| sauvin | fyreme, you don't have mplayer installed? | 06:03 |

| fyreme | yeah sounds like it | 06:04 |
| newToLinux | i´ll try to skip this plugin and run the messenger through ltsp, see if it working alright | 06:04 |
| unop | Flannel, he could be installing from source or a binary tarball | 06:04 |

| newToLinux | and i just double click on the package | 06:04 |

| fyreme | should i pastebin them? | 06:16 |
| unop | fyreme, they aren't necessarily errors - most of it is mplayers output | 06:17 |
| Varak_ | is there a way to search what apt-get gets | 06:17 |
| Jester45 | fyreme: sure | 06:17 |
| topsakatanner | ctrl + f gets the find box | 06:18 |
| Jester45 | Varak_: what do you mean | 06:18 |
| akahige | I get a lot of missing codec "errors" using Totem on Hardy. are there places to look for other codecs? sometimes Totem will say what it needs, but a codec search won't find anything to play it... | 06:18 |

| ubottu | akahige , install the w32codecs package: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 06:23 |

| akahige | esac: thanks. will do... | 06:24 |
| unop | Varak_, according to http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=contents&keywords=qmake you need libqt4-dev | 06:24 |

| fyreme | jester45 no go | 06:24 |
| fyreme | maybe i need a codec? | 06:24 |

| fooks | hello there, i just upgrade my video card from a legacy to a modern one, and the new nvidia driver doesn't seem to be loading | 06:28 |
| unop | adityag, there is no log of such actions unfortunately -- unless someone had to use sudo - in which case consult /var/log/auth.log - all sudoed commands are logged here | 06:28 |
| fooks | in fact, im locked out of xserver altogether since it won't load | 06:28 |

| tony810 | j41n, right click mouse on desktop to set wallpaper | 06:29 |
| Jester45 | fooks: run sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change your driver to vesa, it will be slow but it will work | 06:29 |
| klenz87 | Jester45: well do i really need raid my system just wont let me install and new programs using synaptic it says i have no space | 06:29 |
| esac | gnax; turn on compression and/or add more disk | 06:29 |
| nickrud | topsakatanner you need to make sure that you have the hardy-updates repo enabled, see following | 06:30 |
| unop | Jester45, careful, that's trying to execute /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:30 |
| nickrud | !hardysources > topsakatanner | 06:30 |
| ubottu | topsakatanner, please see my private message | 06:30 |
| Jester45 | lol | 06:30 |
| klenz87 | my setup is the os is on a 20gig disk everything else is blank | 06:30 |
| gnax | and just change my smb.conf to point at the new disk? | 06:30 |
| j41n | tony810: i can change it in there. but wallpaper is not showing on desktop | 06:30 |
| Jester45 | klenz87: sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:30 |
| fyreme | http://www.pastebin.ca/1058789 | 06:30 |
| adityag | unop: but i have not changed it...some1 else changed it....i have never heard of viruses on ubuntu but i guess it must be virus | 06:30 |
| fyreme | got an error when i tried to install the codec | 06:30 |
| bogui | if I'm trying to use aircrack, madwifi drivers, kismet etc. should i remove nm-applet | 06:30 |
| klenz87 | jester45: then what? | 06:30 |
| sauvin | What error? | 06:31 |
| adityag | sauvin: the default folders i get when i log in......../home/Music | 06:31 |
| fyreme | http://www.pastebin.ca/1058789 | 06:31 |
| sauvin | adityag, I don't believe changes to that folder will be logged. | 06:31 |
| Jester45 | klenz87: you can add the the 3 other drives into a software raid for extra speed (if they are the same speed and storage) | 06:31 |
| unop | adityag, what exactly happened tho? and did you check /var/log/auth.log -- maybe you did inadvertently change permissions yourself | 06:31 |
| PradeepDebata | Hi | 06:31 |
| PradeepDebata | Anybody can say ,what is the command for network config | 06:32 |
| * sauvin looks | 06:32 | |
| Jester45 | klenz87: then all 3 will act as 1 larger drive if they arent the same speed or size put them into a LVM, and that will act the same way | 06:32 |
| adityag | sauvin: its this user's folder and some1 changed its permission only...hows that possible ? | 06:32 |
| tony810 | j41n, try a diff image from background setting? | 06:32 |
| Jester45 | PradeepDebata: ifconfig | 06:32 |
| gnax | ifconfig? | 06:32 |
| bogui | if I'm trying to use aircrack, madwifi drivers, kismet etc. should i remove nm-applet | 06:32 |
| pazia10 | kjo | 06:32 |
| sauvin | adityag, I normally use chmod | 06:32 |
| Jester45 | gnax: it allows you to config your interfaces | 06:33 |
| sauvin | fyreme, do you have non-free enabled? | 06:33 |
| fyreme | ? | 06:33 |
| klenz87 | jestert45: im pretty sure they are not the same speed nor are they the same size two 40gig one 80gig and two 20gig, one of which holds the os | 06:33 |
| gnax | yeah i know was responding to pradeep | 06:33 |
| sauvin | Can somebody have the bot refer fyreme to a set of directions to follow for enabling non-free? | 06:33 |
| j41n | tony810: tried. i can see the wallpaper on startup... just before panel and icons comes. after that, no wallpaper. | 06:33 |
| klenz87 | jester45: ok how do i go about making a software raid?? | 06:34 |
| unop | sauvin, non-free what tho? | 06:34 |
| PradeepDebata | Jester45: that is for looking at ip and mask | 06:34 |
| sauvin | unop: w32codecs. | 06:34 |
| fooks | Jester45: to no effect! | 06:34 |
| adityag | sauvin: unop:: i used chown now to revoke the permission | 06:34 |
| unop | !w32codecs | fyreme | 06:34 |
| ubottu | fyreme: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 06:34 |
| lainy | hello, do i use primary or logical partition for the swap partition? | 06:34 |
| PradeepDebata | Jester45: like in rhel we hav netconfig and sysconfig | 06:34 |
| Jester45 | fooks: could you pastebin the error then | 06:34 |
| adityag | sauvin: unop: now anyway i can find out changed the permission for that folder ? | 06:35 |
| unop | adityag, have you checked your own bash history file to see if you changed permissions by mistake? | 06:35 |
| Jester45 | lainy: you can use either or neither :) you can use a swapfile if you want | 06:35 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | what is a repository? | 06:35 |
| Ntemis | /msg NickServ identify fedora | 06:35 |
| lainy | Jester45: what is the most common option? | 06:35 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | !repository | 06:36 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 06:36 |
| Ntemis | hello | 06:36 |
| sauvin | dstrbdfrk1, a place where collections of things are stored, usually for distribution. | 06:36 |
| unop | adityag, one other possibility is that the filesystem that your /home directory resides on is corrupted - which can have strange effects on permissions and ownership | 06:36 |
| Jester45 | lol Ntemis you had a space infront of your / | 06:36 |
| lainy | i read that "swap should be a logical partition" is that correct? | 06:36 |
| Ntemis | i cannot make a voice call on pidgin over yahoo messenger | 06:36 |
| adityag | unop: i have never played around with the folder Music ever....... | 06:36 |
| Jester45 | Ntemis: we all saw your password | 06:36 |
| Ntemis | is it possible? | 06:36 |
| tony810 | j41n, might try changing themes | 06:36 |
| Ntemis | so? | 06:36 |
| Ntemis | am an old user dude | 06:36 |
| Ntemis | before ubuntu | 06:36 |
| Jester45 | Ntemis: so what... me 2 | 06:37 |
| fyreme | w32codecs command not found | 06:37 |
| Ntemis | that time that distro was the shining one | 06:37 |
| Ntemis | so i used that name for my pass | 06:37 |
| Jester45 | fyreme: you install w32codecs and mplayer will use it you dont have to run the command | 06:37 |
| unop | adityag, strange things happen sometimes, and you might not have intentionally gone out of your way to cause things, they can happen by mistake or inadvertently | 06:37 |
| lainy | wait, i can install ubuntu (root / mount point) in an extended/ logical partition?? | 06:37 |
| sauvin | In fact, w32codecs is NOT a command. | 06:37 |
| Ntemis | so is it able to use voice chat for yahoo messenger on pidgin | 06:38 |
| nickrud | lainy any,either | 06:38 |
| unop | lainy, yes | 06:38 |
| lainy | thanks | 06:38 |
| adityag | unop: possibility of virus attack ? | 06:38 |
| sauvin | lainy as far as I'm aware, if it's a partition, you can install linux init. | 06:38 |
| lainy | ok | 06:38 |
| unop | lainy, and swap is not restricted to a logical/extended partition either | 06:38 |
| lainy | unop: great, thanks | 06:38 |

| Zigtown_ | what are like the best programs for ubuntu? | 06:39 |

| nickrud | Zigtown_ the help menu item has a description of what some thought were 'best' and added to the default ubuntu install | 06:40 |

| rubydiamond | where is JAVA_HOME in ubuntu | 06:52 |
| adityag | unop: i pasted it as there were 2 lines,,sorry...there are only 4 lines ...and another of them are the same | 06:52 |
| unop | adityag, maybe /var/log/mail.{err,log,info} | 06:54 |
| rambo123 | rubydiamond>u can set your JAVA_HOME | 06:54 |
| GreatestGatsby | I tried installing 8.04 on a newer machine, and for some reason I get a very poor connection to the internet in Ubuntu. On the same PC however, I get a great connection when running Windows using the same card. Why is the connection so weak in Ubuntu? It is preventing me from getting new updates and from browsing as well. | 06:54 |
| rubydiamond | rambo123, where is my java home directory but | 06:54 |
| rubydiamond | I have java installed | 06:54 |
| unop | adityag, if you get nothing in there, try sending a test mail using the mail/sendmail command - see if that gets through | 06:54 |
| rambo123 | rubydiamond>find it in /usr/lib/jvm | 06:54 |
| Jester45 | rambo123: type echo $JAVA_HOME to see what that variable is | 06:55 |
| Jester45 | rambo123: wrong person | 06:55 |
| adityag | unop: mail/sendmail ::::::no such file or directory | 06:55 |
| Jester45 | rubydiamond: type echo $JAVA_HOME to see what it is | 06:55 |
| unop | adityag, sorry :) i meant either mail or sendmail - didn't realize you would read it literally :) | 06:56 |
| Jester45 | rubydiamond: mine is nothing so i guess the defualt is nothing | 06:56 |
| rubydiamond | its nothing | 06:56 |
| rubydiamond | but Jester45 I want to set it | 06:56 |
| adityag | unop: even i am sorry for such a mistake | 06:57 |
| unop | adityag, it's not your fault at all, it's mine | 06:57 |
| adityag | unop: i tried sendmail | 06:57 |
| Jester45 | rubydiamond: then type JAVA_HOME=where/youwant/the/home | 06:57 |
| adityag | unop: but nothings opening,its waiting for something i guess | 06:57 |
| aRahim | hi guys | 06:58 |
| aRahim | i have a problem with xine player | 06:58 |
| sauvin | Uh oh. | 06:58 |
| rubydiamond | Jeruvy, its not like that | 06:58 |
| aRahim | whenever i open a video file with it, it open with Volume all the way down. | 06:59 |
| aRahim | I have to increase the volume manually all the time | 06:59 |
| rubydiamond | Jester45, its not like that | 06:59 |
| Zigtown_ | is there like a "system profiler" for ubuntu? | 06:59 |
| unop | adityag, sendmail requires you use it in this way. sendmail user@domain.org # then type your message out, when you have finished place a . on it's own line and hit RETURN | 06:59 |
| * sauvin reads !/.xine/config | 06:59 | |
| rambo124 | Jester45>it actually depends on how u install java | 06:59 |
| aRahim | i have already deleted .xine folder from my home directory but the problem persists | 06:59 |
| fyreme | thanks again sauvin and jester45 | 07:00 |
| aRahim | help me | 07:00 |
| rambo124 | Jester45>it is always better to home urself | 07:00 |
| Jester45 | rambo124: he said he wanted to set it and thats how you set it | 07:00 |
| fyreme | yall have a great night | 07:00 |
| Jester45 | fyreme: np and you 2 | 07:00 |
| adityag | unop: ok wait | 07:01 |
| rambo124 | jester45>oh i got disconnected and missed some messages | 07:01 |
| sauvin | aRahim, you may want to put that .xine directory back. | 07:02 |
| adityag | unop: wait i'll try | 07:02 |
| aRahim | why? | 07:02 |
| sauvin | aRahim, I found the following in my .xine/config: "audio.volume.mixer_volume:100" | 07:02 |
| aRahim | sauvin, but i have deleted it | 07:02 |
| aRahim | sauvin, ok | 07:02 |
| rubydiamond | Okay ppl | 07:02 |
| rubydiamond | got it, my java home iexport JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun | 07:03 |
| Jester45 | aRahim: into trash or a real delete | 07:03 |
| rubydiamond | export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun | 07:03 |
| rubydiamond | hi adityag | 07:03 |
| rubydiamond | from India? | 07:03 |
| rubydiamond | Pune? | 07:03 |
| Jester45 | !enter | 07:03 |
| ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 07:03 |
| sauvin | aRahim, xine has the following command line option: --session volume=100 | 07:03 |
| mebaran151 | my ubuntu livecd won't boot: it hangs without error during the install process around the time it initializes either my harddisks or my usb devices. What should I do? | 07:04 |
| rubydiamond | ppl | 07:04 |
| aRahim | sauvin, restore volume level at startup | 07:04 |
| aRahim | # bool, default: 0 | 07:04 |
| aRahim | #audio.volume.remember_volume:0 | 07:04 |
| adityag | unop: i guess it require something more as an input.........its still waiting for something | 07:04 |
| rubydiamond | source ~/.bashrc does not work in ubuntu... you have to close and start new bash | 07:04 |
| koshari | mebaran151 try disconnecting them | 07:04 |
| adityag | rubydiamond: i am from mumbai... | 07:04 |
| sauvin | aRahim, you can change that, if you like :) | 07:04 |
| mebaran151 | koshari, but dont' I need a keyboard? | 07:05 |
| aRahim | sauvin, which line? | 07:05 |
| rubydiamond | adityag, okay fine | 07:05 |
| mebaran151 | and the harddisks are just regular sata | 07:05 |
| unop | adityag, when you have finished typing the message, place a . on a line of it's own and hit enter or press CTRL+D | 07:05 |
| SwedeMike | I'm considering creating a kernel of my own to see if it'll solve a driver issue I have, any known issues with taking the latest 2.6.25 and using the .config from ubuntu stock kernel and doing "make oldconfig" and then do the regular create-kernel-package (only done it in debian before) | 07:05 |
| sauvin | aRahim: the "remember volume" line looks like a boolean. Try changing =0 to =1 | 07:05 |
| aRahim | sauvin, yes | 07:05 |
| rambo124 | i think its better to set JAVA_HOME in /etc/envoironment file for IDE can see it | 07:06 |
| aRahim | sauvin, should i chabge this line too audio.volume.remember_volume:0 | 07:06 |
| sauvin | aRahim, that's the line I was talking about. | 07:06 |
| unop | rambo123, but that affects all users, something which isn't recommended in the unix world if you can help it by doing it in your own environment | 07:06 |
| unop | rambo123, and ~/profile or ~/.bashrc were created for just this purpose | 07:07 |

| rambo124 | unop>all users on one envoironment are recommended to work on same jvm | 07:07 |

| HZ | hello everyone, do you now how to mount a U3 USB stick on ubuntu ? | 07:09 |
| adityag | unop: it was successful but i dint receive the mail | 07:10 |
| aRahim | sauvin, Thanks a lot. It works | 07:11 |
| sauvin | You're very welcome. | 07:12 |
| aRahim | sauvin, also i chabged this line #audio.volume.mixer_volume:90 | 07:12 |
| sauvin | aRahim, yea, that looks reasonable. | 07:13 |
| lainy | how do i get my network manager icon back on the panel? it just disappeared | 07:13 |
| lainy | i logged out and logged back in and it's still not there. | 07:13 |
| sauvin | aRahim, I never knew any of this; you made me go look. Now I know how to fix a minor annoyance *I* have with Xine :D | 07:13 |
| unop | adityag, run the mail command, see if you got any "Mail Delivery" errors | 07:13 |
| adityag | unop: its asking me to install mailx........command not found! | 07:15 |
| aRahim | sauvin, hehehe, i myself is a newbie with conf files :D | 07:16 |
| adityag | unop: should i pastebin mail.info ? | 07:16 |
| unop | adityag, if you feel it has information that could help in troubleshooting, sure | 07:16 |
| adityag | unop: i received the mail.......successful | 07:16 |
| pist0l-fish | Hi there. When I change resolutions in ubuntu (using the ubuntu screen resolution tool) it gives me a 20 second confirmation time. Can I change the 20 seconds to a smaller number? | 07:17 |
| adityag | unop: but i dint receive the text what i wrote in there | 07:17 |
| sauvin | aRahim, I'm not a n00b with config files, but every major application will have unique requirements for its configs. | 07:18 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | pist0l-fish, can i ask y? | 07:18 |
| unop | adityag, sounds good, maybe you didn't format the text properly when typing the message - but that's not important, what's important is that sendmail is able to send mail properly | 07:18 |
| pist0l-fish | |v|4s7e|2: It just would make things easier, I'm trying to fiddle with some stuff at the moment | 07:19 |
| adityag | unop: right.. | 07:19 |
| unop | adityag, try your php script again -- if it doesn't successfully send mail, you might want to see how to debug the script | 07:19 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | neone in here use medibuntu? | 07:19 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | pist0l-fish, i believe so, gimmie a sec | 07:19 |
| pist0l-fish | don't want to use randr and i'm changing some stuff in xorg.conf and i don't want to run into to much trouble | 07:19 |
| adityag | unop: ok ,thanks , brb | 07:20 |
| unop | adityag, also, you might want to check the spam/junk mail folder on your remote destination - maybe the php script isn't placing the right FROM address or SUBJECT line and some mail daemons consider mails that don't have these to be junk | 07:20 |
| adityag | unop: ok....how do i set the right FROM field in the sendmail cmd ? | 07:22 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | neone help me with some info on medibuntu?? | 07:22 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | !medibuntu | 07:23 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 07:23 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | pist0l-fish: idk, somethin with the gnome-display-properties application | 07:24 |
| billeniu1 | When i try to updated from 7.10 to 8.04 the installer seems to... crash or something... it lags and then the installation window goes white... Is there another way to upgrade? | 07:24 |

| baegle | I'm trying to do a netinstall from a USB stick. However, I have run into several problems. I believe that the heart of the problem is that the net installer is confusing the USB stick and the primary hard drive. | 07:47 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | |v|4s7e|2: ??, i just need it so ubuntu soesn't ask me for a pasword when performing administrative tasks | 07:48 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | fyrestrtr: ??, i just need it so ubuntu soesn't ask me for a pasword when performing administrative tasks | 07:48 |
| baegle | During the step "download installer components" I get the error "apt-mirror-setup failed for unknown reasons". I can't find anything about this on the google. I have a feeling it's trying to download the components to the stick and running out of space | 07:48 |
| baegle | is there anyway I can confirm this? | 07:48 |
| TeslaTony | Does the Ubuntu 8.04 LiveCD include enough utilities to do some hardware diagnosis for a possibly dead computer? | 07:48 |
| fyrestrtr | |v|4s7e|2: oh for that -- you need to edit the sudoers file with visudo | 07:48 |
| AcidEyE | hi, i've install virtualbox but i can't make bridge networking between host and guest os, host says brctl command not found. someone help me pls.. | 07:48 |
| fyrestrtr | baegle: could just be a net problem. | 07:49 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | fyrestrtr: i got that far but i cant figure out how to save changes with visudo | 07:49 |
| OddishB | TeslaTony: If your internet access works on the livecd, you can use apt-get and expand it as much as you need (within the constraints of the ram drive). Otherwise, I don't know. | 07:49 |
| baegle | fyrestrtr: everything else appears to download fine | 07:49 |
| fyrestrtr | |v|4s7e|2: esc, then :wq | 07:49 |
| fyrestrtr | esc = escape key | 07:49 |
| baegle | fyrestrtr: also, I've run into this problem multiple times over many days. What possible net problem would I be having? | 07:49 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | ok, ill try that, whats :wq? | 07:49 |
| fyrestrtr | : = command mode w = write q = quit | 07:50 |

| |v|4s7e|2 | ok, thx | 07:50 |

| fyrestrtr | baegle: you could just run it from the shell and see what you get. | 07:50 |
| baegle | fyrestrtr: run what? | 07:51 |
| fyrestrtr | baegle: apt-mirror-setup | 07:51 |

| JaysonK | Hi. I am making a php upload script. I want to filter out any harmful extensions. Are there any extensions that can be indeed harmful for linux ? | 07:52 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | JaysonK: .666 | 07:52 |
| baegle | fyrestrtr: apt-mirror-setup doesn't appear to be a valid command | 07:52 |
| sauvin | "extensions"? | 07:52 |
| Flannel | JaysonK: extensions don't mean anything in Linux | 07:52 |
| fyrestrtr | JayDee: extensions are meaningless in linux when you are talking about the shell. A file could have an extension .txt and it could be a rootkit | 07:52 |
| sauvin | They DO, but only to some applications, and the smarter ones use filemagic when in doubt. | 07:53 |
| fyrestrtr | JayDee: extensions -- or rather, the act of executing a default action on a particular extension, is a feature of the GUI. | 07:53 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | question, whats a loopback interface | 07:53 |
| offline | your localhost | 07:53 |
| * sauvin notes that the ls command uses extensions and filetype to determine how to colourise a listing | 07:54 | |
| offline | your own comp | 07:54 |
| fyrestrtr | |v|4s7e|2: a network interface that points to the same machine that is hosting it, creating a loop. localhost, 127.0.0.1 etc. | 07:54 |
| unop | |v|4s7e|2, in terms of networking, it's an interface that points back to itself, so if you send something down it, the data returns back to you | 07:54 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | offline: as in 127.0.0.1, localhost, etc.? | 07:54 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | ok cool | 07:54 |
| offline | |v|4s7e|: yup | 07:54 |
| * fyrestrtr waits for opensuse to download | 07:55 | |
| JaysonK | My other question then, what mime types are harmful for linux? | 07:55 |
| sauvin | |v|4s7e|2, yes. It's often used during development to test intermediate programs. | 07:55 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: none =) Its the permissions. | 07:55 |
| unop | JaysonK, none, all, depends really | 07:55 |
| sauvin | JaysonK, what are you thinking of when you say "harmful"? | 07:55 |
| JaysonK | meaning that can contain malicious code, for example code that 'deletes' something | 07:55 |
| * sauvin is thinking JaysonK has way too much Windows experience | 07:55 | |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: in linux, its all about the permissions on a node, not the file (or directory, or device) that is actually there. | 07:56 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: code that deletes something -- is useless if you cannot execute it. | 07:56 |
| Chousuke | fyrestrtr: hm, so hardlinks have all the same permissions? :P | 07:56 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: the security is in the permissions and sandboxing. | 07:56 |
| sauvin | JaysonK, what fyrestrtr is saying is related to why apache and suchlike are usually run as normal users; even if they get trashed, they can only trash their own workspaces and (theoretically) can't trash anybody else's, or linux itself. | 07:57 |
| fyrestrtr | Chousuke: no? | 07:57 |
| Chousuke | fyrestrtr: well then I probably misunderstood you | 07:57 |
| JaysonK | ok then thanks, seems that I wont be filtering any extensions/mime types then | 07:57 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: you should do that anyway. | 07:58 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | how would i stream audio over my local network?? | 07:58 |
| Chousuke | fyrestrtr: you didn't mean "inode" with your "node" then? | 07:58 |
| JaysonK | well extensions are pretty much useless, maybe filter some mime types, but which ones fyrestrtr | 07:58 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: chances are wherever you are uploading it to, has the permission of '777' (a very bad idea). So whatever is uploaded there, will be executable if its accessed. | 07:58 |
| Chousuke | JaysonK: there's no need to filter mime types. | 07:58 |
| fyrestrtr | Chousuke: no, I meant a node in a tree, as in the directory tree. | 07:58 |
| Chousuke | right. | 07:58 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: in other words, if someone uploads a file with the extension .php, and then browses that file (assuming your save location is in the web root), then whatever code is there will execute. | 07:59 |
| Chousuke | if you accept user uploads you must be *very* careful | 07:59 |
| unop | JaysonK, what are you filtering? email attachments, file uploads to servers, etc ? | 08:00 |
| fyrestrtr | JaysonK: so, to prevent that -- fix the permissions on the directory, use a permissions mask, or store the stuff outside your web root so its not accessible from a user agent. | 08:00 |
| baegle | is there anyway to configure LVM on a specific partition and not on the entire disk? | 08:00 |
| Chousuke | you should set permissions to 644 at most | 08:00 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | whats icecast? | 08:00 |
| JaysonK | ok, will modify permission to 644 upon upload | 08:00 |
| fyrestrtr | |v|4s7e|2: audio streaming server | 08:00 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | |v|4s7e|2: good, im tryin to stream audio over my local network | 08:01 |
| Chousuke | JaysonK: that means rw-r--r-- btw | 08:01 |
| JaysonK | php's chmod uses octal | 08:01 |
| Chousuke | you might also want just 444 or even 400 | 08:01 |
| JaysonK | so 0644 for me | 08:01 |
| JaysonK | thanks for the help then | 08:01 |

| offline | lainy: go to system>administration>synaptic package manager and search for ndiswrapper | 08:22 |
| ubottu | antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus | 08:22 |
| dushy | Flannel: its a sub menu in the applications. System tools is created for opening vmware. but mine is currupt and cannot be opened. so i need to delete | 08:22 |

| fyrestrtr | dushy: just re-install it. | 08:23 |
| lainy | offline: you're right it's not installed. is it on the install cd? because the computer doesn't have a wired connection | 08:23 |
| Rayyan | does anyone know if linux AV software can scan my windows drives? have some viruses on windows i need to get rid of | 08:23 |
| Flannel | dushy: You installed VMWare from a package, correct? Use synaptic, and remove the package completely (complete removal). That should fix both of those issues | 08:23 |
| joaopinto | Rayyan, the linux AV will not remove virus, it will just scan | 08:23 |

| joaopinto | dushy, just run the vmware uninstall script.. there is a vmware uninstall script (I am not sure of the path now) | 08:25 |

| mhall | hey i'm having some odd xinerama problems here on an nvidia graphics card... it starts the server but the main screen is blank and the secondary goes to sleep... has anybody else witnessed this in hardy? | 08:32 |
| Mercuree | what are your system specs? | 08:32 |
| mhall | also, i'm from the debian world, so what is the ubuntu equivalent of "unstable" | 08:32 |
| Mercuree | ottoshmidt, ^ | 08:32 |
| dushy | joaopinto: i could locate the menus. but i could see the icons alone. the icons reside at applications > system tools > vmware. if i delte vwmare will my system tools get deleted too? | 08:32 |
| joaopinto | mhall, on ubuntu you only have current and development, the development is intrepid, you can ask about it on #ubuntu+1 | 08:33 |
| Flannel | mhall: There is none. Ubuntu releases a new release every six months, those package versions that were released, stay with that release (except for bugfixes and security updates). And then the next versions development starts. | 08:33 |
| joaopinto | dushy, every menu entry is provided by a .desktop on /usr/share/applications, you just need to find it and remove | 08:33 |
| ottoshmidt | Mercuree, CPU 2.26,RAM 1 GB, VGA 256 mb | 08:34 |
| Flannel | mhall: You get new versions of software by upgrading versions. Of course, there are exceptions, but thats a pretty decent summary. | 08:34 |
| dushy | joaopinto: i removed the icons. let me see if i can search for system tools too :) | 08:34 |
| Mercuree | heh thats odd. pretty much the same specs as me and I have no probs. Have you tried different browsers? | 08:34 |
| dushy | joaopinto: yep its gone automatically :) | 08:34 |

| baegle | alright, I'm completely lost as to what has happened. Installed Ubuntu from USB stick. Told it to use the hard drive for / and /home and swap/, it looks like Grub was installed on the USB stick and NOT the HDD, I can't boot from the hard drive. However, I can boot from the USB stick and it mounts the HDD in / and /home as specified | 08:47 |
| baegle | however, it appears varrun, varlock, udev, devshm, and lrm are all on the USB stick | 08:47 |

| === bug is now known as buggy1986 | ||
| baegle | I was told to go buy a USB optical drive and install from there, but I think that's kind of ridiculous that I should have to go buy new, useless-after-the-fact hardware to do the install, so I tried to install from a USB stick | 09:02 |
| baegle | unfortunately, the USB stick is being read as HD0 during installation, while the target drive is being read as HD1. So when the grub installation step happens, it automatically installs on HD0 because it's apparently hardcoded. I can't figure out how to change that. | 09:03 |
| baegle | Now, I can only boot into my HDD installation if my USB stick is in at power-on and my bios is set to boot from it. I'm at my ropes end here. | 09:04 |

| baegle | DJones: Yes on the first one. And several other ones that I needed to combine advice from in order to get it to work at all. I don't believe that the second link is relevant to me. | 09:07 |
| baegle | DJones: I have a hunch that the problem is that my mobo recognizes my USB stick as a hard drive, and then in order to boot from it I have to set the boot order to put the USB stick before the HDD. This appears to have the effect of making the USB stick HD0, which is where the installer seems to be hardcoded to install grub into the MBR. | 09:09 |

| Ketara | /server irc.blufudge.com | 09:09 |
| DJones | baegle: Ok, I was just wondering if you'd done something unusual in the installation, if ubuntu has installed on hd1 as you wanted, but its only put grub on hd0 (the usb drive), the only suggestion I can think of is to reinstall grub (but I've not done it myself so you'd need to ask somebody else in the channel for advice on that), maybe using a supergrub disk/usb install, that might solve the problem, sorry I can't suggest anything more than that tho | 09:10 |

| Zaronn | I am thinking about changing my office from xp to unbuntu, but am scared of using the server. How touch will it be to set it up? Mostly as a firewall/proxy and cache | 09:36 |
| Zaronn | touch = tough | 09:37 |
| eftex | Zaronn: why not use the normal desktop distribution? | 09:37 |
| eftex | where is the need for the server on your desktop? O_o | 09:37 |
| Zaronn | yes we will but we also have a server | 09:37 |
| eftex | and setting up ubuntu server as firewall/proxy is now no more harder than using the jana-proxy-software on windows | 09:38 |
| eftex | its pretty comfortable to set up | 09:38 |
| magentar | zzorn_laptop, top or system monitor | 09:38 |
| eftex | i've also a problem i try to run counter-strike source since 2 days but it doesnt work | 09:38 |
| Zaronn | i guess i will try it at home first before setting it up here in the office :)( | 09:38 |
| eftex | i get this errormessage in the terminal from wine | 09:38 |
| eftex | http://paste.ubuntu.com/23898/ | 09:38 |
| eftex | could it be that wine is not compiled with opengl support? i used the one from the repos | 09:38 |
| ROKO__ | palavkata | 09:39 |
| eftex | wine-0.9.59 <--- is my version | 09:39 |
| ROKO__ | are you here ??? | 09:39 |
| magentar | eftex, did you try -dxlevel 81 ? | 09:39 |
| eftex | i allready googled, wiki and steam-tutorials | 09:39 |
| eftex | magentar its to enable the directX? | 09:39 |
| user__ | ROKO__: he/she is, yes | 09:39 |
| magentar | eftex, try installing the newest binary version of wine from http://wine.budgetdedicated.com | 09:39 |
| ROKO__ | palavkata write | 09:40 |
| zzorn_laptop | magentar, hmm, can I show system load for applications with top? It's just showing the CPU% | 09:40 |
| eftex | magentar: not better to compile it from sources like they did? http://lhl.linuxgames.com/howto/half-life-HOWTO-0.5.html | 09:40 |
| zzorn_laptop | (I assume system load is time used by system calls or such?) | 09:40 |
| neeto | I have a nvidia 9800 GXT, and the proprietary drivers will not stay installed... wtf? | 09:40 |
| magentar | eftex, it limits directx to version 8.1, which is supported better by wine (select properties/launch options in the game tab) | 09:40 |
| nad | i there an internet download manager for ubuntu | 09:40 |
| Zaronn | what is the minimum partition size needed to install unbuntu on a machine with windows?I want to test it first | 09:40 |
| neeto | nad: try downthemall for firefox | 09:40 |
| eftex | same error magentar | 09:41 |
| user__ | Zaronn: i believe 4GB, more info at !install | 09:41 |
| eftex | do i need to install any directX stuff on wine before? | 09:41 |
| magentar | zzorn_laptop, no i don't think so, but the system load is calculated from cpu% | 09:41 |
| magentar | eftex, the guid you are using seems to be quite old | 09:41 |
| zzorn_laptop | magentar, hmm, ok | 09:41 |

| eftex | magentar: no the one from the page you gave me | 09:49 |
| eftex | 1.1.0 for ubuntu 8.04 | 09:49 |
| magentar | ok | 09:49 |
| eftex | the strange thing is i cant use glxinfo | 09:49 |
| eftex | since it "crashes" my system | 09:49 |
| magentar | is opengl configured properly? try running glxgears | 09:49 |
| eftex | and i end up on the loggin-screen | 09:49 |
| eftex | but compiz works (i dont get that) | 09:49 |
| soundray | I need to switch to version 4.1 of gcc and friends from 4.2 temporarily. How do I make sure, after installing the 4.1 packages, that the links are correct? gcc doesn't seem to be managed through update-alternatives. | 09:49 |
| magentar | okay, so the problem is really gfx related | 09:49 |
| magentar | which graphics drivers are you using? | 09:50 |
| eftex | geforce 8800 gts 512 (the 512 mean not the amount of RAM but that the card is allredy using a G92 instead of the old G80 chip) | 09:50 |
| wols | soundray: manually checking gcc, g++ and cpp... | 09:50 |
| wols | last installed sets the /usr/bin/ symlinks to itself | 09:50 |
| magentar | eftex, try running nvidia-settings and see what happens | 09:51 |
| wols | eftex: a card is not a driver | 09:51 |
| wols | eftex: dpkg -l |grep nvidia | 09:51 |
| eftex | magentar: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23900/ | 09:52 |
| wols | oh, envy | 09:52 |
| eftex | yes | 09:52 |
| magentar | does the nvidia-settings tool work properly? | 09:53 |
| eftex | installed via envyn-gtk | 09:53 |
| soundray | Thanks wols | 09:53 |
| eftex | magentar: no it says something like that --> You dont appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run "nvidia-xconfig" as root). and restart the X server | 09:54 |
| eftex | maybe its because i (accidentially) replaced the xorg with that xgl-thing | 09:54 |
| magentar | what about your /etc/X11/xorg.conf ... does it have the nvidia driver in it? | 09:54 |
| magentar | could be... you should not be running xgl if your on nvidia, it doesnt make sense ;) | 09:55 |
| magentar | and most opengl apps don't work with xgl | 09:55 |

| tofaffy | I have an external hard drive that I want to mount at startup, and also network it via samba. Then I want to map it as a network drive on the laptop. Could anyone help me? | 09:56 |
| wols | eftex: uninstall xgl | 09:56 |
| Bl4ckcomb | tofaffy, you can do that in your /etc/fstab | 09:56 |
| wols | tofaffy: put it in your fstab and share it via samba (edit smb.conf) | 09:57 |

| Unislash | hey guys :). For some reason, my windows installation wants to name it's root drive G: instead of C:. Is there any way to fix this? I am totally willing to reinstall :P. I know this is totally a windows question, but if you guys have no suggestions... then i'd ask about how windows decides to name it's drives, followed by how to affect this from ubuntu (hence, it's an ubuntu question in disguise) | 09:58 |
| Unislash | hmmm, wow. tell me where my last message got cut off :/ | 09:58 |
| Bl4ckcomb | windows? | 09:58 |
| wols | Unislash: we don't care. this is #ubuntu. we don't do windows | 09:58 |
| Unislash | lol | 09:58 |
| Unislash | continue reading :P | 09:58 |
| === jmibanez_ is now known as jmibanez | ||
| wols | it's not a ubuntu question no matter who you think it is. now please ask ubuntu questions or go away | 09:59 |
| wols | s/who/how | 09:59 |
| Bl4ckcomb | ubuntu has nothing to do with your windows drive letters Unislash ... | 09:59 |
| Unislash | meh, woa there buddy... | 09:59 |
| wols | I am not your buddy | 09:59 |
| Unislash | i should not have even mentioned windows. gosh... i didn't know you guys hated dual booters :/ | 10:00 |
| kaliMastah | they hated bill | 10:00 |
| Unislash | lol | 10:00 |
| kaliMastah | he is the root of all this linux | 10:00 |
| soundray | Unislash: there is no emotion involved in this. It's just that your question is inappropriate for here. Why not ask in ##windows ? | 10:01 |
| wols | Unislash: we don't. we hate people asking windows questions in #ubuntu tho | 10:01 |
| freewilly | why not answer window questions, if it has to do with dual boot etc | 10:01 |
| wols | freewilly: we do | 10:01 |
| Unislash | well, here's my situation | 10:01 |
| Bl4ckcomb | dual boot =/= ubuntu freewilly -_- | 10:01 |
| kaliMastah | are we not opensource based people | 10:01 |
| freewilly | ok =) | 10:01 |
| Bl4ckcomb | boot level is beyond the OS | 10:01 |
| kaliMastah | windows is cheesy...its just a low level os | 10:02 |
| wols | kaliMastah: OT | 10:02 |
| kaliMastah | lmao | 10:02 |
| Unislash | i'm trying to dualboot, and right now, i can't even get ubuntu to boot because my windows overrode grub | 10:02 |
| Bl4ckcomb | and actually drive letters have nothing to do with dual boot either | 10:02 |
| wols | !grub > Unislash | 10:02 |
| ubottu | Unislash, please see my private message | 10:02 |
| Unislash | thanks | 10:02 |
| magentar | Unislash, try using google ;) http://www.petri.co.il/change_system_drive_letter_in_windows_xp.htm : I guess you could very easily break your installation with messing around with the root driveletter | 10:02 |
| wols | magentar: OT | 10:02 |

| Unislash | so, now i'm trying to reinstall it, but instead of trying to fix it once it's installed, i'm trying to fix it before and get it to have a normal letter | 10:03 |
| SlimG | Is there aac playback capabilities in Ubuntu 8.04 out-of-box ? | 10:03 |
| Unislash | therefore, i'm asking how to affect drive letters from ubuntu | 10:03 |
| kaliMastah | Unislash, is your windows drive an ntfs? | 10:03 |
| wols | SlimG: it's a restricted codec | 10:03 |
| wols | Unislash: stop your windows questions | 10:04 |
| Unislash | because i can boot from ubuntu before i reinstall it | 10:04 |
| wols | kaliMastah: continue this conversation in ##windows | 10:04 |
| kaliMastah | lol | 10:04 |
| osh_ | How do I do rewrite email-addresses in postfix. Feel free to answer wols. ;-) | 10:04 |
| SlimG | wols: Does that mean it isnt installed out-of-box? | 10:04 |
| freewilly | just install xp & linux on separate disks | 10:05 |
| === yacc_ is now known as yacc | ||
| Unislash | wols: sorry, but i'm asking a totally valid ubuntu question... how do you affect drive letters using ubuntu? you should be able to | 10:05 |
| wols | SlimG: yes | 10:05 |
| user__ | osh_: i am sure this is on of postfix FAQ | 10:05 |

| Unislash | god | 10:06 |

| eftex | but it looks pretty ugly compared to playing on windows | 10:06 |
| wols | kaliMastah: and he was answered by the factoid | 10:06 |
| osh_ | wols: Yep. Gotten that far. Now apache sends me mails like this <apache> some.good@email.addr.com. I want to replace the <apache>. Can't find that anywhere. Bloody annoying. | 10:06 |

| Radit | hi, i'm using ubuntu 8.04 and a nvidia graphics card; how do i setup a dual monitor? | 10:07 |
| kaliMastah | Radit, where did you get your driver for nvidia? | 10:07 |
| Unislash | myrtti: is it effected by the order of the partition? i think that's where i went wrong :/ | 10:07 |
| gnumm | does anyone have problem with firefox + nvidia driver? | 10:07 |
| wols | Unislash: windows question again | 10:07 |
| Unislash | wols, ok, fine | 10:07 |
| Radit | kaliMastah: from "enable restricted drivers" | 10:08 |
| equiv | hi, I have a nvidia geforce 4 440 go and i can't get compiz to work :( | 10:08 |
| wols | Unislash: ##windows | 10:08 |
| Myrtti | Unislash: yes, but you should be able to change that with Windows | 10:08 |
| Unislash | would anyone care to help me with my plea in a PM? | 10:08 |
| wols | equiv: what drivers? | 10:08 |
| kaliMastah | hmmm thats something i like to learn...anyway im upgrading my ubuntu 5.04 to 8.04 | 10:08 |
| Unislash | i'm dual booting, and having a question. is it that hard to complrehend? | 10:08 |
| Unislash | (and help) | 10:08 |
| elky | wols, lay off. | 10:08 |
| wols | the question is not about ubuntu however | 10:08 |
| equiv | wols: nvidia but i don't think they work | 10:09 |
| Unislash | wols, my god, you are an antagonist now aren't you | 10:09 |
| wols | elky: can you please tell me how this is ubuntu related? | 10:09 |
| kaliMastah | Radit, is it available with the cd ubuntu 8.04 | 10:09 |
| Flannel | kaliMastah: You can't upgrade that in one go. You'd have to reinstall. To uprade you'd have to go 5.04 -> 5.10 -> 6.06 -> 8.04 | 10:09 |
| magentar | Radit, you can configure dualview (twinview f.e.) with "gksu nvidia-settings" | 10:09 |
| SlimG | Is there a videodecoder for x264 installed in Ubuntu out-of-box ? | 10:09 |
| suprie | wols, i'm also think same as elky | 10:09 |
| kaliMastah | flannel...im erasing my old 5.04 then ill install the 8.04 | 10:09 |
| suprie | it's still ubuntu related | 10:09 |
| Flannel | kaliMastah: Ah, fresh install will work fine. | 10:09 |
| elky | wols, it's a dual boot. we're not going to strand him once the topic leans towards the windows side of a dualboot configuration. | 10:10 |
| wols | elky: he's been told about a dozen times by 4-5 people that this is nothing ubuntu can fix and that he should wask ##windows. his grub problem got the appropriate factoid by ubottu | 10:10 |
| suprie | now Unislash , you want to boot to your ubuntu again right | 10:10 |
| wols | elky: we told him how to get hir grub back long ago | 10:10 |
| tofaffy | Okay I used diskmounter to setup automount for my external hard drive. When I right click the drive and go to properties to try to share it, there is no share tab and it says permissions can't be identified. What does this mean and how can I fix it? | 10:10 |
| wols | but we cannot influence windows driev letters | 10:10 |
| Radit | magentar: gksu nvidia-settings doesn't run anything; sudo nvidia-settings: command not found. is it possible it isn't installed yet when i enabled restricted drivers? | 10:10 |
| wols | Radit: yes possible | 10:11 |
| magentar | just install nvidia-settings then | 10:11 |
| DJones | wols: from what I've read, Unislash has asked how to change the name of an ntfs partition using Ubuntu, although as Myrtti has said, its not possible in ubuntu, but to my mind, its a fair question to ask in the channel | 10:11 |

| Unislash | well, i was mainly asking how they were named in the first place... now how to change them | 10:12 |
| wols | equiv: which restricted ones. there are 3 diferent nvidia restricted drivers | 10:12 |
| Unislash | but, i would have accepted information on how to change them :) | 10:12 |

| equiv | wols: i think it's the generic | 10:12 |
| wols | Unislash: ntfs-utils changes labels. and you were asking how to make G:\ to be C:\. that's not naming | 10:12 |
| DaLiang | Flannel:you means that i must use comand line? | 10:13 |
| wols | equiv: define "generic" | 10:13 |
| Unislash | and at the time, i didn't even know that ubuntu didn't use drive letters | 10:13 |
| elky | wols, once again, lay off. you're off that case, you're not to mention it again. | 10:13 |
| Flannel | DaLiang: Sort of. Its the grub program for some of it, not the cmmand line (although you do type into it) | 10:13 |
| tofaffy | Okay I used diskmounter to setup automount for my external hard drive. When I right click the drive and go to properties to try to share it, there is no share tab and it says permissions can't be identified. What does this mean and how can I fix it? | 10:13 |
| equiv | wols: how do i chek witch driver i have? | 10:13 |

| Magicdead | my network doesn't connect at boottime anymore, seems like a dhclient error/bug of some kind. http://paste.ubuntu.com/23903/ (everything from minute 10:53 onward is me doing sudo dhclient manually, which works just fine) i'm using ubuntu hardy 2.6.24-19-generic, the problem is on my regular network card which has worked flawless for ages, and it started some 3-4 days ago, i suspect due to some update installed | 10:13 |
| Unislash | will do. next time don't be so damn sharp please :) | 10:14 |
| DaLiang | Flannel: thank you i will learn it myself | 10:14 |

| nocturn | I tried to put Xen on my Ubuntu 8.04 server, but it seems to have broken the install | 10:18 |
| Cyrus25801 | freewilly: what do you mean | 10:18 |
| nocturn | I did aptitude install ubuntu-server-xen and rebooted | 10:18 |
| freewilly | if you have probs w screen resolution etc, you have to find the right "modeline" in xorg.conf | 10:19 |
| nocturn | the kernel loaded, but the machine is so slow, I can hardly log in | 10:19 |
| nocturn | Any ideas? | 10:19 |

| freewilly | use "xvidtune"" as root | 10:21 |
| soundray | Cyrus25801: don't go down the modeline route just yet -- freewilly's suggestion shouldn't be the first line of approaching this problem. | 10:21 |

| Silverzrishi | hi all why do u guys use ubuntu? | 10:48 |
| jagggy | vlt, gnome | 10:48 |

| alexei | Hi, what is the name of that application that sits in the tray and informs about new updates available? | 11:11 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: The du command prints 6392 versus 14432 kB size. The first level of subdirectries is identical. Many files in the former are in compressed (extension .gz) form while they are in expanded form in the latter. So the documentation is not so much different as you seem to suggest. | 11:12 |
| enouf | bullgard4: so use zless on the gz files to inspect them, also see if there are symlinks in each dir, pointing either to the other, or somewhere else | 11:13 |
| Kleeravitc | I have a linksys network adapter, found if Itype 'lsusb'. Nevertheless it's not in the networklist. Anyone knows how I can fix this? | 11:14 |
| enouf | Does this channel have a bot that one could query for iwlwifi information? | 11:14 |
| enouf | i tried ubottu, but it doesn't know anything | 11:14 |
| enouf | or my queries sucked | 11:15 |
| madmn | i tried to update my gcc | 11:15 |
| checkpoint | hi all | 11:15 |
| madmn | but that did not work | 11:15 |
| madmn | my gcc is still not working | 11:15 |
| Bracki | How can I strip my Desktop to a Server configuration? | 11:15 |
| bullgard4 | !iwlwifi | 11:15 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about iwlwifi | 11:15 |
| [edge] | madmn, do you have installed gcc? | 11:15 |
| madmn | yeah | 11:15 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: I don't think that there another Bot here active at the moment. | 11:16 |
| enouf | bullgard4: i tried in PM many things related | 11:16 |
| [edge] | what version of gcc you have | 11:16 |
| enouf | bullgard4: ok | 11:16 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: Do you mind that I use the mc reader instead of zcat? | 11:17 |
| Bracki | Is there any meta package I can apt-get remove to ged rid of gnome,X,openoffice etc.? | 11:17 |
| enouf | bullgard4: not at all | 11:17 |
| madmn | there is a sudo line that will update it | 11:17 |
| checkpoint | does zone alarm good ? | 11:18 |
| madmn | i have asked here before just can't remember the line | 11:18 |
| enouf | bullgard4: or .. you could just gunzip the whole lot of them and then compare, once you see if any symlinks exist | 11:18 |
| SliMM | hello | 11:18 |
| SliMM | I cannot share my files | 11:18 |
| [edge] | madmn, sudo aptitude | 11:19 |
| enouf | bullgard4: zcat is equivalent to 'gunzip -d' so when you use it, it makes a copy and decompresses that copy | 11:19 |
| SliMM | this is the error I get: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied | 11:19 |

| microwaver | gaminggeek, good performance under wine? | 11:26 |
| gaminggeek | microwaver: that all depends on your system | 11:27 |

| piti | hi here. I'd like to set up a customized splash screen on an eeepc 701, and, as the native resolution is 800x480, I tried using 915resolution, so it seems to support this resolution (hwinfo --framebuffer tells modes with 800x480), but when I try to set it in grub (menu.lst) grub complains that the mode is not supported. may I miss something ? | 11:30 |
| kaliMastah | koshari: i am burning a new version of ubuntu...does gnomebaker do the trick? | 11:30 |

| dmox | Quick question, can anyone refer me to a HOWTO on configuring 8.04 to set my hardware clock (the hour, specifically) to the time in my time zone rather than UTC? I dual-boot into Windows and it's getting annoying to have to manually re-sync the clock in order to make scheduling work. | 11:32 |

| lejonet | Hi, I got a problem with grub, I recompiled a own kernel and surprisingly it didnt work, but what it did is it remove my other kernel from the list, how do I get the old kernel back in the list? | 11:34 |
| SliMM | user__: I use samba... | 11:35 |
| [edge] | lejonet, use livecd to restore your grub | 11:35 |
| lejonet | edge do I have to restore grub? Okay, will do that | 11:35 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: How to use the command 'sudo gunzip *.gz'? "detlef@MD97600:/usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.24/Documentation$ sudo -r gunzip *.gz; sudo: illegal option `-r'; usage: sudo -h | -K | -k | -L | -l | -V | -v..." | 11:35 |
| user__ | SliMM: just for background info: you connect ubuntu to ubuntu? | 11:36 |
| [edge] | lejonet, you can mount your partition from livecd and edit menu.lst | 11:36 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: recursively | 11:36 |
| SliMM | user__: yes | 11:36 |
| lejonet | edge okay, but my partitions are encrypted, it will just prompt for the passphrase and let me mount it? | 11:37 |
| enouf | bullgard4: no, one sec .. show me what's in the dir | 11:37 |
| henux | Hello. I am manually partitioning my HD from Ubuntu install. I am installing Ubuntu for dual-boot with Windows. The Windows partition is currently taking the whole HD. Is it safe to resize the partition from the usual "edit partition" button from this partitioning system of Ubuntu install, and set the partition size to smaller than it currently is, without destroying any previous data on the partition? | 11:37 |
| user__ | SliMM: hmm, i would recommend ssh for that, samba though is !samba | 11:37 |
| lejonet | henux, unless youve filled up ur whole windows partition, its safe to resize it and shrink it | 11:37 |
| henux | Ok thank for this kind answer. | 11:38 |
| SliMM | user__: so, how can I setup ssh on both computers? | 11:38 |
| enouf | bullgard4: gunzip -dr /path/to/top/dir | 11:38 |
| henux | The partition has 28 gigs of data, and I am resizing it to 50 gigs... Good to go! | 11:38 |
| user__ | SliMM: its described in the url i gave you | 11:38 |
| enouf | bullgard4: add c to show you output - so -dcr | 11:38 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/380361/ | 11:38 |
| SliMM | user__: ok, thanks | 11:38 |
| lejonet | henux yeah, it should be good to go, seeing as they remove from the end of the partition, where you dont have files put at yet | 11:39 |
| enouf | bullgard4: there are NO gz files there | 11:39 |
| |v|4s7e|2 | neone here have experience with icecast | 11:39 |
| user__ | SliMM: for a start you could also read in wikipedia about ssh to get a better understanding | 11:39 |
| henux | lejonet: What about in the case if the partition is defragmented and some parts of some files might be in the end of it? | 11:39 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: But in the subdirectories. | 11:39 |
| enouf | bullgard4: and always show me ls -l output, not ls | 11:39 |
| enouf | bullgard4: so, show me | 11:39 |
| SliMM | user__: ok, and for a general LAN what should I use? | 11:40 |
| henux | lejonet: Is this system intelligent enought not to overwrite anything silly? | 11:40 |
| enouf | ls -l /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.24/Documentation/* | 11:40 |
| [edge] | lejonet, try this manual: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Cryptoloop-HOWTO/mounting-filesystem.html ? | 11:40 |
| user__ | SliMM: what is a general lan? mixed windows and ubuntu clients? | 11:40 |
| enouf | bullgard4: from your output, i can't even tell which are dirs | 11:40 |
| anto | Whats the command to findout where a usb is before its mounted in /dev ? | 11:40 |
| enouf | bullgard4: ls -l /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.24/Documentation/* <-- in case you missed it | 11:40 |
| lejonet | henux, defragmentation is not a problem unless you got a fat32 disk, seeing as defragmentation is a memory long gone with NTFS (not entirely true, but true enough) | 11:41 |
| SliMM | user__: yes, via a router | 11:41 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/380362/ | 11:41 |
| lejonet | edge okay, thanks | 11:41 |
| SliMM | user__: some wireless clients as well | 11:41 |
| enouf | lejonet: NTFS gets EXTREMELY fragmented | 11:41 |
| user__ | SliMM: it doesnt matter if wireless or not, windows and linux mixed? | 11:42 |
| SliMM | user__: yes | 11:42 |
| lejonet | enouf, Never have in my experience, because defragmentation hardly helps on ntfs systems, where as on fat/fat32 systems it can give 10% more space in ntfs that one is <1% | 11:42 |
| enouf | bullgard4: that's not the command i asked you to run .. or are you just a little late seeing and doing what i asked?? .. i mean | 11:42 |
| user__ | SliMM: ok, samba then. more info: !samba | 11:42 |
| Kleeravitc | !apt-zip | 11:42 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-zip | 11:42 |
| bullgard4 | enouf: I was late. | 11:42 |
| enouf | lejonet: i've seen teh nastiest fragmentation on NTFS HDDs in screenshots from others - i never did, nor will use ntfs | 11:43 |
| enouf | lejonet: i'm talking 97% or more | 11:43 |
| IdleOne | lejonet, so the fact that defragmenting only gives you back 1% in NTFS to you means that it is not a problem. I see that as the defragmenting process in NTFS is broken and does not work properly.... | 11:43 |
| enouf | lejonet: in the output of whatever that XPoop tool is that shows you that | 11:44 |
| lejonet | enouf, I can say that I have never seen a fragmented ntfs system, and enouf if you ever have used XP or Vista youve used ntfs sorry to say :P | 11:44 |
| lejonet | and then ive repaired computers for 5 years, soon 6 years | 11:45 |
| enouf | lejonet: guess what - i haven't :-P | 11:45 |
| lejonet | enouf, good, stick with linux, I prefer it :P by far | 11:45 |
| sarmisak | lejonet: you are a lucky one, i've lost about 1.5 Gigs of email due to fragmentation | 11:45 |
| Alrem | Why my Gnome use xorg.conf keyboard settings? | 11:45 |
| enouf | lejonet: and also - by never used; i meant not on any MY boxen .. | 11:45 |

| lejonet | sarmisak, then the guy that recovered that disk was using wrong tools | 11:46 |
| enouf | lejonet: but it's just wrong to say NTFS doesn't get fragmented | 11:46 |
| enouf | lejonet: complete and utter nonsense | 11:46 |
| lejonet | enouf, I change that to hardly fragmented | 11:46 |
| enouf | lejonet: it'll get REALLY bad if you let it | 11:46 |
| user__ | bsusa: you could check bugreports in ubuntu launchpad. maybe its already reported as an issue | 11:46 |

| kaliMastah | just wondering what it looked like | 11:53 |
| user__ | bsusa: did you install savage from ubuntu repositories? | 11:53 |
| Oli`` | kaliMastah: download the live cd and play with it. Gnome has hundreds (if not thousands) of tweaks and updates to it, so you'll likely notice a significant difference | 11:53 |
| IdleOne | kaliMastah, you can google for screeenshots of Ubuntu 8.04 | 11:53 |

| newton^^ | that howto | 12:22 |
| furious_joe | Im looking there, thanks | 12:22 |
| soundray | Kartagis: it's not exactly wrong, but I agree the factoid could be split | 12:22 |

| soundray | ezoner: resizing normally works very well. You should have a backup nevertheless, since an unusual event such as a powercut can trip up a resize operation. | 12:52 |
| Pici | ezoner: Well, theres always a slight risk that there will be issues resizing NTFS paritions. The least amount of risk, however, would be to resize withing Vista, as it actually has that capability. | 12:52 |

| Dr_willis | jeriath, the 3 i have tried in the past have always had the drivers allready in the kernel. | 12:58 |

| Jack_Sparrow | jeriath most if not all of those are proprietary.. try this though run a live cd and at the first menu hit F6 ..and add.. let me find it.. one sec | 12:58 |

| Avi | i'm having problems with my display after manually installing a new nvidia driver | 12:59 |
| tmroland | yes | 12:59 |
| Avi | anyone know how i can roll back the driver? | 12:59 |
| Pici | ezoner: You might want to ask about this in ##windows , I don't want to reccomend using gparted to rezise your parition only for you to have irreperable problems later. | 12:59 |
| Jeeves__ | avi: what driver did you install? | 12:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jeriath To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add all_generic_ide before the "--" | 12:59 |
| Avi | the latest one off the nvidia webstie jeeves | 12:59 |
| ezoner | pici: but you said that it might by e very low risk of data lost if i try the ubuntu live cd ? | 13:00 |
| jeriath | alright....thanks Jack_Sparrow, im burning a live cd now and ill give it a try | 13:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jeriath HOpe it helps | 13:00 |
| Avi | ubuntu isn't recognizing it | 13:00 |
| Pici | ezoner: Correct. | 13:01 |
| newton^^ | tmroland: why is enable printering commented? | 13:01 |
| Jeeves__ | avi: did you install it from the instructions on nvidia.com from the .rpm file? | 13:01 |
| newton^^ | tmroland: ; load printers = yes | 13:01 |
| knightwise | hey newton^^ , according to this manual it should be like this : sshfs#me@remoteserver:/remote/folder/ /media/myserver fuse port=123,noauto,user 0 0 | 13:01 |
| newton^^ | tmroland: its commented, maybe uncomment it | 13:01 |
| tmroland | what line | 13:01 |
| ezoner | pici: okey i will try the channel, great thanks to you :) | 13:01 |
| newton^^ | tmroland: 160 | 13:01 |
| Avi | i didn't do that jeeves...can i try it again doing that? | 13:01 |
| newton^^ | knightwise: try it:) | 13:01 |
| tmroland | dont think that makes any difference but lets try | 13:02 |
| tmroland | it wasby default that way | 13:02 |
| Jeeves__ | avi: i would. give me the model number and i'll link the page i'm talking about | 13:02 |
| newton^^ | tmroland: i thiink it might be cause the printer wont be loaded | 13:02 |
| Avi | thank you jeeves it's the geforce 7 series | 13:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jeeves__ rpm's in ubuntu? | 13:02 |
| knightwise | is there a way to parse the fstab without having to reboot ? | 13:02 |
| Avi | really appreciate it | 13:02 |
| newton^^ | knightwise maybe reload the fstab | 13:03 |
| eaglestar83 | hi how do i install the wine 1.0 i don't see it in repositories | 13:03 |
| ia | could you tell me please, will be possible some conflicts in programs, if i use apparmor and selinux at the same time? is it unsafe for system to use them together? | 13:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | knightwise mount -a ? | 13:03 |
| newton^^ | ty Jack_Sparrow | 13:03 |
| knightwise | ok , i'll try Jack_Sparrow | 13:03 |
| eaglestar83 | and how do i make it so the old version is not conflicting | 13:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eaglestar83 /join #winehq | 13:03 |
| Tyreus | The backup is made but he still complains bout the owner rights of $home/.dmrc | 13:03 |
| magentar | eaglestar83, wine.budgetdedicated.com | 13:03 |
| Jeeves__ | Jack_Sparrow: hmm...true that, and envy doesn't work with it either...you could always load the drivers from the xorg editor | 13:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | knightwise Im still half asleeep here | 13:03 |
| eaglestar83 | thanks | 13:04 |
| tmroland | newton^^ : after that restart samba and cups | 13:04 |
| tmroland | or what | 13:04 |
| Avi | i think i can handle it actually | 13:04 |
| Jeeves__ | avi: k | 13:04 |
| eaglestar83 | magentar if i install from that site it automagically updates the wine i have? | 13:04 |
| newton^^ | tmroland: restart samba & cups i suggest aswell | 13:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jeeves__ A big issue is how the monitor settings are detected. Manually editing xorg moniotr settings seem to help on many cards | 13:04 |
| Avi | saw something about it when i tried the same for debian | 13:04 |
| Avi | thanks! | 13:05 |
| magentar | eaglestar83, better uninstall it first | 13:05 |

| joaopinto | jpastore, ;) | 13:27 |
| ankit | how can i use restricted driver? | 13:27 |
| jeriath | i ended up adding it to the menu.lst, since i saw that that could be done and while i was at it i fixed grub so it would boot to the right volume anyway :P | 13:27 |
| jpastore | bazhang, thanks a restart got it working...I should have tested that before bothering you guys... | 13:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | ankit: restricted driver for what? | 13:27 |
| Avi | i think there's something wrong with the nvidia kernel | 13:27 |
| bazhang | jpastore, nicely done :) | 13:27 |
| jpastore | it would be nice to get an indication to the screen that something bad happened | 13:28 |
| LimCore | ikonia: and there perhaps is a bug that one can not go back to previous installation step, but I will see later | 13:28 |
| ankit | for default | 13:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jeriath well done.. I just had you use the live way as a test.. glad you got the rest done | 13:28 |
| joaopinto | Avi, you should not use the driver from NVidia's honme page, you should use the one provided on the repositories | 13:28 |
| troythetechguy | When I run the command "lastlog", it shows user 2 **never logged in**. However, I know user 2 has logged in as recently as yesterday. I tried running the command as sudo, thinking other user login was only displayed to root, but this did not make a difference. Ideas? This appears only to be an issue under Ubuntu. | 13:28 |
| ikonia | LimCore: his livecd install is probably just lagging a little | 13:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: have you not tried to enable the restricted driver? | 13:29 |
| Avi | i tried reinstalling all the packages i found after searching for nvidia in the synaptec | 13:29 |
| zeeq | anyone install asterisk on ubuntu 8.04??? pleez reply...just a couple of settings req | 13:29 |
| Avi | but i can't get it back | 13:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: you do't know how to answer a question do you | 13:29 |
| bazhang | heh | 13:29 |
| ikonia | troythetechguy: how are they logging in ? | 13:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | LimCore Did you ever answer my question... if you run gparted from the menu and not the installer.. and remember it is slow.. do you see the partitions | 13:29 |
| Avi | i opened the restrictd driver window | 13:30 |
| Avi | but nothing is listed there | 13:30 |
| === sokrazy is now known as feuj | ||
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: ok, thats all you had to say, which nvidia device are you using? | 13:30 |
| dv_ | there's no way to add custom servers to xchat-gnome? | 13:30 |
| zeeq | anyone install asterisk on ubuntu 8.04....pleez reply...just a couple of settings req | 13:30 |
| troythetechguy | ikonia: both via gdm and terminal. | 13:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zeeq Please hold down the repeats | 13:30 |
| LimCore | ikonia: we are sure that previously installer skipped the question whether to partition manually etc. Is there any such condition? Perhaps if ubuntu thinks that disc is not formated (no part. table yet) | 13:30 |
| Avi | geforce 7 series | 13:30 |
| ikonia | troythetechguy: if you do a "last" do you see them ? | 13:30 |
| user__ | !anyone > zeeq | 13:30 |
| ubottu | zeeq, please see my private message | 13:30 |
| zeeq | sure jack... | 13:30 |
| bazhang | zeeq, we see your question; when someone knows they will reply-->however best to give a lot more info | 13:31 |
| ikonia | LimCore the disk probably lagged and he pressed next twice | 13:31 |
| LimCore | Jack_Sparrow: thanks, but now we are still trying other solution | 13:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: very weird, because i have a 7900 and its fine | 13:31 |
| ikonia | LimCore: thats quite common, people think it's done nothing and hit next a few times | 13:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ikonia agreed | 13:31 |
| Avi | it worked fine for me til i upgraded the driver | 13:31 |
| === lordleemo1 is now known as lordleemo | ||
| Avi | foolish | 13:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: why did you upgrade the driver? | 13:31 |
| troythetechguy | ikonia: Yea, I did not know there was a "last" command, cool! Another tool for me to add to my utility belt. | 13:31 |
| Gatonegro | Hello all. I'm trying to get my Wacom working in Ubuntu Studio 8.04, but the cursor doesn't move at all with the tablet. Any help? | 13:32 |
| ikonia | troythetechguy: and they do show up in "last" ? | 13:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | IndyGunFreak but you didnt try to install the driver from an rmp | 13:32 |
| zeeq | in ubuntu there are 35 packes for asterisk...how many needs to be installed in order for asterisk to work on ubuntu?...thanks | 13:32 |
| Avi | does ubuntu upgrade automatically? | 13:32 |
| troythetechguy | ikonia: Yes, they show up in "last" | 13:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | Jack_Sparrow: lol, very good point... i didn't realize he actually tried that | 13:32 |
| LimCore | ikonia: then it would be good to indicate it, if this is inedeed a common error | 13:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !info asterisk | 13:32 |

| IndyGunFreak | Avi: usually... maybe not the day of a new release, but you'll get updated in due time. | 13:32 |
| ikonia | emefarr_1: just apt-get install asterisk" | 13:33 |
| Avi | Indy: how can i roll back the driver | 13:33 |
| Avi | ? | 13:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zeeq sudo apt-get install asterisk | 13:33 |
| bazhang | zeeq, first, what have you done? second, what errors did you get; third what is asterisk, and lastly, you should pastebin all this at paste.ubuntu.com | 13:33 |
| ikonia | LimCore: people just need to be a little more patient when running a livecd in ram | 13:33 |
| kdubois | in regards to man pages, what does the number (i.e. man(8) ) mean? | 13:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: did you use the RPM to install the updated driver? | 13:33 |
| Avi | no | 13:33 |
| Avi | .run | 13:33 |
| LimCore | ikonia: or, program should be more patient with users perhaps? Whats best place to discuss installer | 13:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: i'm still curious why you were upgrading the driver in the first place | 13:34 |
| Avi | LOL | 13:34 |
| ikonia | LimCore: you can't make them more patient - it's running in ram, it's down to the users individual machine, there is nothign wrong with that - it's not a bug" | 13:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: i'm not really sure how to remove that driver | 13:34 |
| Avi | Was a link to a new driver on a website | 13:34 |
| joaopinto | kdubois, manpages are organized into sections, (8) is the section number, you can have several man pages on different sections for the same keyword | 13:34 |
| user__ | kdubois: man man ;-) | 13:34 |
| Avi | I was thinking of reinstalling Ubuntu | 13:34 |
| Avi | what a headache | 13:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | Avi: well, that should fix it | 13:35 |
| Avi | LOL | 13:35 |
| Avi | thanks india | 13:35 |
| Avi | indi | 13:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | learn to be a little more cautious about the instructions you follow | 13:35 |
| Avi | you confirmed my feats | 13:35 |
| Avi | fears | 13:35 |
| kdubois | so how can i access a man page that isnt default? | 13:35 |
| zeeq | bazhang: there are no error for now...I m just wodering if someone already installed asterisk on ubuntu...coz there are 35 packages I m sure not all of them are needed... | 13:35 |
| ikonia | zeeq just install the asterisk package, it will install anything else thats needed | 13:35 |
| user__ | kdubois: man 1 man | 13:36 |
| bazhang | zeeq, no idea never used it. | 13:36 |
| ikonia | zeeq: you've been told 3 times now, is something not being made clear to you ? | 13:36 |
| kdubois | user__: ah, ok. thanks | 13:36 |
| zeeq | ikonia: its being installed as we speak...just one thing then...do u manually start asterisk? if you do what the command will look like? | 13:37 |
| ikonia | zeeq: it's on the applications drop down menu | 13:37 |
| ikonia | zeeq: I suggest you read some of the documentation on it | 13:37 |
| sarmisak | zeeq: try installing asterisk and asterisk-config | 13:37 |
| sarmisak | zeeq: it should run automatically | 13:37 |
| zeeq | ikonia: thanks...will do...thanks once again | 13:38 |
| zeeq | sarmisak: thanks..thats all I needed to know... | 13:38 |
| LimCore | I liked 7.04 partitioner better | 13:39 |
| deStone | i have ubuntu server and it keeps auto-gening a dhcp interfaces | 13:39 |
| LimCore | faster to edit all parts quickly | 13:40 |
| deStone | anyt thoughts on how to statically change that? | 13:40 |
| sarmisak | zeeq: keep in mind that asterisk is not a standalone application | 13:40 |
| deStone | i mean, i've done that | 13:40 |
| ikonia | deStone: disable dhcpd ? | 13:40 |
| deStone | but every reboot, a new interface file is created | 13:40 |
| sarmisak | zeeq: it's a server and does not have much interactivity through xwindows. | 13:40 |
| deStone | is having dhcpd doing that? | 13:40 |
| ikonia | deStone: what do you mean a new interfaces file ? | 13:40 |
| ikonia | deStone: as in /etc/network/interfaces ? | 13:40 |
| Ziroday | LimCore: the older partitioner is still there, its called 'Partition Editor' | 13:40 |
| LimCore | qoq | 13:41 |
| LimCore | wow. | 13:41 |
| LimCore | new users are SO confused by smallest things | 13:41 |
| LimCore | like, "jfs" is not "jfs - with journaling" | 13:41 |
| LimCore | someone should do a study on this and invent improvments to installer imho | 13:42 |
| oldenglis1 | My panels both moved to a bottom orientation randomly on a reboot and now I can't get the top one back to the top, anyone seen that before? | 13:42 |
| Ziroday | LimCore: there has been | 13:42 |
| ikonia | LimCore: stop blaming ubuntu | 13:43 |
| troythetechguy | ikonia: Sorry, I stepped away for a moment. Should I just be content I'm able to view information with "last" and not worry about why the user doesn't appear using "lastlog", or does the user appearing using "last" but not "lastlog" indicate an what the issue might be? | 13:43 |
| LimCore | Ziroday: user that did used ubuntu is totally confused when installing 8.04 | 13:43 |
| LimCore | ikonia: Im not | 13:43 |

| LimCore | ikonia: well, try reading what I actually write, and I written now that I see room for improvment | 13:43 |

| babolat | user__: Dr_willis I'm wondering if it's possible to embed a VLC stream into an HTML file or a PHP script | 13:46 |
| user__ | babolat: you can include any link into a php. question is if the browser can display it. that depends on the codec being used i guess | 13:47 |
| Dr_willis | babolat, check the vlc homepage, and the companion vlc tool vls (i think thats the name) | 13:47 |
| babolat | user__: Dr_willis i've found this --> http://www.videolan.org/doc/play-howto/en/ch04.html#id310965 but i'd prefer it if I could use java or flash | 13:48 |

| Dr_willis | babolat, no idea. check the vlc forums | 13:49 |

| Pici | knightwise: When you boot, or when you login? | 13:51 |
| guano | mainly stability issues, if heron is too experimental or if it is good, vs gutsy's libraries being outdated | 13:51 |
| wackarnolds | ok | 13:51 |
| user__ | babolat: so dont use java .. ;-) | 13:51 |
| guano | i only have experience with debian, equating this with etch vs lenny | 13:52 |
| knightwise | bazhang, im using xfce | 13:52 |
| joaopinto | guano, hardy is not experimental, is the current stable release | 13:52 |
| guano | how etch is too outdated and a hastle to install anything | 13:52 |
| livingdaylight | anyone use arial2? | 13:52 |
| guano | i was just wondering how stable heron is | 13:52 |
| guano | oh | 13:52 |
| bazhang | knightwise, you may want to ask in #xubuntu then | 13:52 |
| babolat | !hardy | guano | 13:52 |
| guano | i was not aware of that | 13:52 |
| knightwise | ok , thanx | 13:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | guano very stable, but you can always dual boot gutsy and hardy | 13:52 |

| matteo_ | hi all anyone knows how to reformat ubuntu? i'd lke a blank system :) | 13:53 |
| guano | i'll stick with heron then | 13:53 |
| guano | i tried it briefly with no problems | 13:53 |
| racarter | is the correct package kubuntu-kde4-desktop? | 13:53 |
| racarter | rather than kubuntu-desktop | 13:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | matteo_ gparted livecd can erase the entire hard drive | 13:53 |
| Ziroday | matteo_: you can use gparted sometimes called the "partition editor" | 13:53 |
| racarter | kubuntu-desktop has problems, unresolved dependencies they say... | 13:53 |
| SliMM | hello | 13:53 |
| guano | i'm just tiredo f everything being too much work in debian to install packages i want, and i like how ubuntu has vware support right out the box | 13:54 |
| SliMM | how can I make my touchpad deactivate automatically | 13:54 |
| guano | i dont know what it uses, but without even installing vmware tools it already has something.. | 13:54 |
| SliMM | ? | 13:54 |
| adityag | i am in live mode of kubuntu, i want to format one of the drives,how do i do that??? | 13:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adityag gparted ot qtparted | 13:55 |
| bazhang | guano, with gutsy vmware, with hardy vbox are the easiest solutions | 13:55 |
| guano | i noticed ubuntu would grab/ungrab the vmware window straight off the live cd, so it must have some vmware drivers built in | 13:55 |
| bazhang | guano, in the canonical partner repos, not the live cd though | 13:55 |
| adityag | how do i run , gparted ?? | 13:55 |
| guano | if i try running some other distro where i cant easily install vmware tools, my vmware has really bad mouse handling | 13:56 |
| Ziroday | adityag: open a terminal and type 'gparted' | 13:56 |
| matteo_ | i know there is a command like mkfs that is preetty easy isnt it? I'd like to reformat without using partition and so on :) is it possible? | 13:56 |
| guano | i liked that ubuntu did that out the box | 13:56 |
| bazhang | guano, if you are used to debian then gutsy/hardy will be very familiar and easy to use. | 13:56 |
| Ziroday | matteo_: try gparted | 13:56 |
| guano | if it wasnt for that bad vmware bug it wouldnt be an issue | 13:56 |
| === ara_lunch is now known as ara | ||
| guano | no one seems to know anything about it either, i tried #vmware | 13:56 |
| matteo_ | is a package? | 13:56 |
| adityag | where is the terminal ??? | 13:57 |
| guano | but as long as i got the vmware mouse driver its cool | 13:57 |
| Ziroday | adityag: or you can press alt-f2 and then type in gparted | 13:57 |
| bazhang | guano, best to try both live cds though, just to be sure :) | 13:57 |
| adityag | could not run the specified command ??? | 13:58 |
| furious_joe | Other than "shred" from coreutils, are there any other shredders for linux? I have a good one for windows that can shred directories and overwright the free space on a drive. Something like that would be nice | 13:58 |
| Ziroday | adityag: are you using ubuntu or kubuntu? | 13:58 |
| adityag | kubuntu | 13:58 |
| matteo_ | k i downloaded gparted now how to reinstall ubuntu? :) | 13:58 |
| user__ | furious_joe: there are special mini distros for shredding | 13:59 |
| Ziroday | adityag: try typing in qtparted instead | 13:59 |
| rsk | matteo_: insert cd and reinstall ? | 13:59 |
| Ziroday | adityag: also kubuntu support in #kubuntu | 13:59 |
| guano | just different things with deb has left a bad taste in my mouth, like doing dist-upgrade to lenny, and getting broken g++ | 13:59 |
| guano | it was crashing frequently on me | 14:00 |
| matteo_ | so i need to format my hd with NTFS and then reinstall ubuntu with cd? | 14:00 |
| furious_joe | I was mainly after the clear free space stuff, so I can clear my drives when going overseas | 14:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | matteo_ why format to ntfs | 14:00 |
| furious_joe | without removing the data | 14:00 |
| Ziroday | matteo_: you can just reinsert the cd and run through the installer again | 14:00 |
| guano | that was like the first 4 times i installed it, the last 2 i didnt have a problem, aside from the apt-get/upgrade issues | 14:00 |
| [\dan\] | user__: or do dd if=random of=/dev/urandom as root. creates a data file full of random data until the disc runs out of space. run it as root as the system reserves a small amount | 14:00 |
| [\dan\] | only cryptographic nuts would get stuff back after that | 14:00 |
| [\dan\] | fills free space | 14:00 |
| guano | i somehow got a bad g++ package in lenny, 4.2.4, and still had the darn 2GB fstream bug | 14:01 |
| guano | that was actually when i first tried ubuntu, to see if it worked there, which it did | 14:01 |
| guano | then i installed etch again and it worked there too, so it was something bad from lenny | 14:01 |
| bazhang | guano welcome to ubuntu :) www.ubuntu.com/dowload | 14:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 14:01 |
| [\dan\] | ubuntu as a desktop os is brilliant, ubuntu server is a waste of time | 14:02 |
| matteo_ | sry i am noob :P so wot i do with gparted? | 14:02 |
| user__ | [\dan\]: that would overwrite the whole disk, and not onyl the free space, as furious_joe needs? | 14:02 |
| [\dan\] | no no | 14:02 |
| g0tcha | hey guys, can someone help me to set a static ip on my ubuntu so the ip stays the same always even after rebooting? | 14:02 |
| [\dan\] | that would be dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/urandom | 14:02 |

| kane77 | anyone had broken package for transmission lately? I get: "trying to overwrite `/usr/share/icons/hicolor/16x16/apps/transmission.png', which is also in package transmission" and the upgrade of the package fails... I tried to remove and install once again, but now it fails to install... | 14:02 |
| guano | because a compiler in lenny that still has the darn 2GB bug is kinda fail, i suspect it was something that installed an older library version and apt-get would never update it | 14:02 |

| furious_joe | [\dan\] wouldn't that destroy the /whole/ drive? the one I found cleans out the free space, so if you non-securley deleted stuff in the past, you can remove it without damaging current data | 14:06 |

| Ziroday | g0tcha: sorry I mean 192.168.1.1 | 14:06 |
| troythetechguy | ikonia: I think I found something that might be helpful. Here is a line from the "last" command: pts/0 :0.0 Tue Jun 3 08:27 - 09:35 (01:08) Notice the date and time. Is it possible the "last" and "lastlog" command are pulling the incorrect date and time? | 14:06 |
| g0tcha | Ziroday, ok, one second | 14:06 |
| Ziroday | g0tcha: sure | 14:06 |
| [\dan\] | furious_joe: no, it only destroys the whole drive if you specify a *device* instead of a filename | 14:06 |
| amenado | matteo_-> a blank ubuntu? what is that? like a new formatted drive? | 14:06 |
| furious_joe | oh right, I see now. Thats pretty clever. Thanks | 14:07 |

| Ziroday | g0tcha: it didn't work | 14:29 |
| _FeniX_ | is it able to upgrade 6.10 to 8.4 | 14:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | anyone]: that is irrelevant, what type of laptop its on. | 14:29 |
| WalloO | _FeniX_, personnaly, i prefer fresh install, it's better. Sometime, in an upgrade, issues from one version stay in the new one. | 14:29 |
| anyone] | 1330 | 14:29 |
| Ziroday | g0tcha: and you can try yourself by doing ssh -p port user@ipaddress | 14:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: make sure you have a reasonably current backup(or that you don't care about losing stuff), then yes, youc an try and install | 14:30 |
| WalloO | _FeniX_, but just try, if the CD propose you to upgrade, it means it will upgrade... :) | 14:30 |

| anyone] | IndyGunFreak: what ur idea for this problem | 14:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: correct, burn it as an image to a CD(look for burning images in your burn software)... burn it slow(2-4x) then boot the cd | 14:31 |
| kaliMastah | do i have to mount it then burn the files to the cd? | 14:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | anyone]: well considering you've not answered myq uestion, i have no idea | 14:31 |

| kaliMastah | do i have to login in a gnome environment? | 14:43 |
| soundray | josh__: I suggest you try the (not yet released) 0.10 version of the madwifi driver. You can use the instructions for the Eee PC: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EeePC/Fixes | 14:43 |
| Pici | kaliMastah: And if you're running 5.04 we really can't help you. | 14:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: no, k3b is a KDE program, but that is irrelevant. | 14:43 |
| kane77 | does anyone else have broken transmission update - package transmission-gtk? (the torrent client) It tries to overwrite file that belongs to other package and fails, neither uninstalling help... | 14:43 |

| erUSUL | kane77: sudo dpkg -i --force-all file.deb | 14:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: you've not burned it as an image.. you've burned the file to the disk, it needs to be burned as an image | 14:46 |
| LimCore | all kde applications that need passwords, are unusable in ubuntu 8.04 for me | 14:46 |
| kane77 | erUSUL, does the --force-all work also for apt-get? | 14:46 |
| amenado | kaliMastah-> you have to burn it at the lowest speed like 1x, anything higher somehow corrupts the burn | 14:46 |
| F_NOOK | pici : can i ask you in private channle? | 14:46 |
| Pici | F_NOOK: sure | 14:46 |
| erUSUL | kane77: i do not see it on the man page | 14:46 |
| soundray | F_NOOK: run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' | 14:46 |
| kaliMastah | ive burned the image... | 14:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: how did you burn it? | 14:46 |
| Pici | F_NOOK: but soundray's advice should help you | 14:46 |
| kaliMastah | using this | 14:47 |
| kaliMastah | Insert a blank CD into your burner. A "CD/DVD Creator" or "Choose Disc Type" window will pop up. Close this, as we will not be using it. | 14:47 |
| anyone] | rofl | 14:47 |
| nyuu | sorry | 14:47 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: i don't think nautilus burns images, thats the thing. | 14:47 |
| nyuu | I get a "MPlayer interrupted by signal 6 in module: decode_video" | 14:47 |
| nyuu | error | 14:47 |
| nyuu | what should I do | 14:47 |

| kaliMastah | im going to install k3b by force using apt-get | 14:48 |
| phil | when im in partition manager part do i just the correct partition to /home but not format | 14:49 |
| __ryan__ | what's wrong with Brasero | 14:49 |
| soundray | kaliMastah: can you right-click on the iso file in nautilus and see if there is a 'Write to CD' option | 14:49 |
| hccmb | brasero burn images | 14:49 |
| hccmb | its default on ubuntu 8.04 | 14:49 |
| kaliMastah | theres none | 14:49 |
| soundray | __ryan__: we're talking about some prehistoric version of ubuntu | 14:49 |
| kaliMastah | soundray, it prompt to cd/dvd creator | 14:50 |
| hccmb | no brasero? | 14:50 |
| __ryan__ | oh.. | 14:50 |
| __ryan__ | wasn't paying attention sorry | 14:50 |
| Pici | kaliMastah: We cannot help you if you are running 5.04 The support ended for that in 2006. | 14:50 |
| Ian_Daniher | is /dev/dsp used? | 14:50 |
| kaliMastah | have to drag the iso to that nautilius and start burning it | 14:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | hccmb: he's using 5.04 the problem isn't he can't burn, he doesn't have a program to burn, and 5.04's repos' are closed | 14:50 |
| Ian_Daniher | I"m trying to configure mp3blaster | 14:50 |
| Ian_Daniher | get an error saying that it can't open /dev/dsp | 14:50 |
| morgan | Can someone please give me some advice | 14:50 |
| LimCore | How to quickly tell system (mostly KDE) that I want program XYZ to open all graphical files? | 14:50 |
| kaliMastah | pici, im trying to upgrade this thing to 8.04 | 14:50 |
| amenado | kaliMastah-> next time you partition your 40gig, i suggest / partition about 8-10gig /home about 10gig /swap 1gig the rest unused for growth | 14:51 |
| morgan | i want to setup a mail server to use with openprotect | 14:51 |
| hccmb | hmm, ok , on 5.04 maybe try to install gnomebaker | 14:51 |
| morgan | what is best to use? | 14:51 |
| soundray | kaliMastah: no, that won't work | 14:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | hccmb: thats the prob, he can't, the repositories are closed | 14:51 |
| kaliMastah | or atleast install 8.04 | 14:51 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: do you have a friend that would let you burn a CD at their house or something? | 14:52 |
| kaliMastah | amenado, i will thanks but for now ill try to figure out how to burn the cd | 14:52 |
| morgan | how do i configure sendmail for receiving mails and how would you setup a mail account? | 14:52 |
| kaliMastah | IndyGunFreak, theres a computer shop nearby...they can burn | 14:52 |
| amenado | kaliMastah-> you still have your 5.04 cdrom? | 14:52 |
| ikonia | morgan: sendmail will auto recive hosts to user@hostname | 14:52 |
| kaliMastah | ill try it there right now | 14:52 |
| ikonia | morgan: thats it's default setup | 14:52 |
| kaliMastah | amenado, yes | 14:52 |
| kaliMastah | amenado, i can burn right here | 14:53 |
| morgan | how would you go about configuring a mail client to retrieve? | 14:53 |
| phil | so yah can i just name the correct partition /home and it will become my /home partition without formatting it? | 14:53 |
| amenado | kaliMastah-> then if you have your 5.04, re-install and resize the partitions, to leave you a separate partition for the new 8.04 | 14:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: you can burn, but you can't burn it as an image.. thats the problem | 14:53 |
| kaliMastah | oh well im going out and ask someone to burn it | 14:53 |
| ikonia | morgan: you'd need a pop3/imap server setup to read the mail | 14:53 |
| ikonia | morgan: thats not sendmails job | 14:53 |
| kaliMastah | IndyGunFreak, ill burn it at the nearby computer shop | 14:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: just make sure its burned as an image... | 14:53 |
| morgan | would the pop3 read from the sendmail info store? | 14:53 |
| amenado | kaliMastah-> you dont need to bother no one else :P | 14:53 |
| ikonia | morgan: the mail is held in the users home directory by default | 14:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | kaliMastah: and if they make you pay for it, i'd tell them to test boot it. | 14:54 |
| morgan | right ok do you have any recommendations? | 14:54 |
| kaliMastah | IndyGunFreak, uhmm thats the problem they are linux nooby | 14:54 |
| ikonia | morgan: I rate dovecot as a imap server, and it is fine as a pop3 server, there are others though | 14:54 |
| Dedi | whats the best way to crate own global shortcuts in gnome? | 14:54 |
| morgan | can i set it up to interact with openprotect? | 14:54 |
| ikonia | morgan: thats not very wise | 14:55 |
| foutrelis | Hello. How can I get vzdump on Ubuntu Hardy? | 14:55 |
| ikonia | morgan: are you on an home connection, DSL/Cable ? | 14:55 |
| morgan | lease line at work test network | 14:55 |
| amenado | kaliMastah-> you got the idea? re-install the 5.04, have a separate partition just for 8.04..then you come back and lets install your 8.04 iso from hd | 14:55 |
| ikonia | morgan: ok - then speak to a mail administrator before doing anything as if your smtp server is "open" your ip range could get black listed | 14:55 |
| morgan | ikonia : will do, but theoretically how would i go about it in an offline situation? | 14:56 |
| nooga | sic | 14:56 |
| foutrelis | nevermind my question, I think I've found a repo that has vzdump :) | 14:56 |
| ikonia | morgan: you don't in an offline situation | 14:57 |
| morgan | as in using openprotect on a gateway forwarding to a pop3? | 14:58 |

| neverwas | I am trying to write a script that uses a PicoLCD that connects to my computer over usb, I want to write stuff out to the screen as certain things happen at boot time, my problem is that the device is HID and as soon as the USBHID mod is loaded it grabs the device and won't let me write to it, if I disable hid I can write to it fine, but as soon as I enable HID again it finds the device and my udev rule runs again (begin infinite loop). | 15:52 |

| davvs_ | How can I change the backdrop picture with a terminal in X ? | 15:56 |
| ASULutzy | Anyone have a link readily available for Intrepid Alpha1? | 15:56 |
| joaopinto | cjohnson, you can setup vnc with it's own X session | 15:56 |
| weezelding | davvs_: depends on your terminal | 15:56 |
| gabbler | cjohnson: you can use the nohup keyword so it run in the background | 15:56 |

| m3talgod_ | hi, unfortunatly the wireless still doesn't work ... | 15:56 |
| badcloud | bainan, can you elaborate? | 15:57 |
| m3talgod_ | i configured the ssid and wpa ... but it doesn't work | 15:57 |
| gabbler | cjohnson: good question, i know you can with bash but have never tried it for x | 15:57 |
| cjohnson | joaopinto, but I want to separate it from X, that's what I'm saying. | 15:57 |
| davvs_ | weezelding: I have gnome-terminal as well | 15:57 |
| cjohnson | gabbler, I'll give that a try when I get home though, thanks :) | 15:57 |
| bainan | print --h | 15:57 |
| gabbler | cjohnson: np, if i find any more i'll let you know | 15:58 |
| badcloud | I'm printing via x | 15:58 |
| badcloud | regular print dialog | 15:58 |
| weezelding | any clue what's wrong with intel driver in Xorg. The screen goes blank after random time. Killing kdm and restarting won't bring it up neither loading i915 module again. Logs doesn't show anything special regarding the blanking. | 15:58 |
| badcloud | don't want to have to open a dialog each time | 15:58 |
| badcloud | dialog=terminal | 15:58 |

| boupartaC | Anybody know how to upgrade apache2 and php5 to the latest version? (2.2.9/5.2.6). Please come in private. | 15:59 |
| badcloud | it's just that the print spooler doesn't seem to load | 15:59 |
| weezelding | or about positioning the terminal? | 15:59 |
| davvs_ | weezelding: yes | 15:59 |
| m3talgod_ | hello, thanks to ASULutzy I was able to find out what kind of wireless board I have and installed the driver, but now, that I've configured the SSID and WPA it still doesn't work ... | 15:59 |
| davvs_ | the background picture of the window-system | 15:59 |
| m3talgod_ | any suggestions? | 16:00 |
| badcloud | this is in 8.04 btw | 16:00 |
| Bogaurd | I'm running ubuntu feisty on a box of mine, I'd like to install a newer version of smartmontools, the version is provided in gutsy. How can I do this? | 16:00 |
| weezelding | have you tried google with this: xterm +background +image | 16:00 |
| ASULutzy | m3talgod_: I've actually not been able to get WPA set up using ndiswrapper and that card, though admittedly I haven't tried that hard. I just set up MAC filtering and called it a day | 16:00 |
| === acid_ is now known as kisela | ||
| weezelding | Bogaurd: by apt-pinning | 16:00 |
| m3talgod_ | how do I do that? | 16:01 |
| badcloud | bainan, 'print --h' did not do much | 16:01 |
| Bogaurd | weezelding: I've not heard of that - I figured I'd need to use a backport..? | 16:01 |
| weezelding | aye | 16:01 |
| weezelding | for example | 16:01 |
| Buckeye | I'm having problems with the install :( The installer isn't showing any partitions for me to install to. it's a 750gb sata drive with windows vista already installed on it. Wanted to move the partition to have space for the install | 16:01 |
| Buckeye | I've tried to google and browse around a bit but I'm not having any luck | 16:01 |
| davvs_ | weezelding: no... i haven't, ill try that, thanks | 16:01 |
| boupartaC | Anybody knows how to upgrade apache2 and php5 to the latest version? (2.2.9/5.2.6). Please come in private. | 16:02 |
| m3talgod_ | the important thing for me right now is get the wireless going, it doesn't matter if it is with or without WPA .. | 16:02 |
| ASULutzy | m3talgod_: Mine works perfectly using no encryption and MAC filtering (though this isn't 100% secure, someone who knows what they're doing could snoop/hop on, but 99/100 users won't be able to) with WEP and that card it works, but I experienced significantly slower speeds, and I was unable to get WPA-PSK working, so take your pick ;) | 16:03 |
| badcloud | anyone? how is it that I can print a test page but printing via x dialog not working? | 16:03 |
| gabbler | bcjohnson: having looked a bit further, it seems that what you would like, a screen for x, seems not possible at the moment due to how x works, the closest people have come is via vnc | 16:03 |
| joaopinto | boupartaC, you should keep with the package versions provided from your repositories... | 16:03 |
| soundray | Bogaurd: you're right -- look for a backport | 16:03 |
| soundray | !backports > Bogaurd | 16:03 |
| ubottu | Bogaurd, please see my private message | 16:03 |
| Bogaurd | thanks guys | 16:04 |
| m3talgod_ | oh, so I just don't fill in anything at WPA? | 16:04 |
| m3talgod_ | what about at SSID? | 16:04 |
| ASULutzy | m3talgod_: These are all things you setup on your router | 16:04 |
| weezelding | or has someone actually found solution for cracking sound with intel sound card? modprobe and "options snd_hda_intel model=macmini position_fix=2 probe_mask=1" parameters doesn't seem to have any affect | 16:05 |

| weezelding | but let's see | 16:06 |
| m-c | Buckeye: Have you tried the manual partitioning? | 16:07 |
| Anarhist | hi, my sound just "stopped" after some idiotic banner on the webpage tried to do the sound effects and i closed the firefox, i've tried restarting alsa-utils but that didn't help, what can i do (i don't want to restart) | 16:07 |
| weezelding | Anarhist: kde/gnome ? | 16:07 |
| badcloud | what do I do to read the print manager messages? | 16:08 |
| Anarhist | weezelding, gnome | 16:08 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, cracking sound? have you made sure that none of your mixer volumes are at 100%? My sound crackles when my mixers are maxed out. | 16:08 |
| weezelding | ah, dunno about it's sound system. kde uses artsd, and it gets jammed sometimes | 16:08 |
| msinani | m,iuh | 16:09 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: only way to recover working sound is boot up (few) times | 16:09 |
| Solet | anyone know of an sftp/scp client that allows the user to throttle the speeds of up/down loads? | 16:09 |
| kinus | hi ppl, how can i install ubuntu 8.04 into existing reiserfs partition (deleting content of this partition is no such big problem)? | 16:09 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, do you use kde? | 16:09 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: yep | 16:09 |
| taes81 | Hi, I just partitioned my hard drive for a logical ext2 partition but when i tryed to install. Its telling me theres no root directory any lead me in the right direction? | 16:09 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, have you turned down the time that arts holds on to the sound card for? | 16:10 |
| Anarhist | kinus, i think that at some point the install asks you where to install, you can just select the one you like | 16:10 |
| badcloud | how to diagnose print spooler/manager? anyone? | 16:10 |
| joaopinto | taes81, you must set one of the partitions mount point to "/" | 16:10 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: hmm? | 16:10 |
| bastid_raZor | Solet; scp can throttle the speed but it is a one time set per scp. | 16:10 |
| soundray | badcloud: look in /var/log/cups | 16:11 |
| badcloud | thanks | 16:11 |
| Anarhist | kinus, do what badcloud just told taes81, set the mount point to '/' when asked | 16:11 |
| kinus | Anarhist:: no such question.. when i choose "expert" or smth like that, there is only one hard drive, no logical partitions | 16:11 |
| Solet | bastid_raZor: scp is a client? | 16:11 |
| badcloud | don't think I said that, but thanks for the credit :) | 16:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, sound & multimedia >> soundsystem >> autosuspend if idle after "" | 16:11 |
| bastid_raZor | Solet; command line | 16:11 |
| Anarhist | oh, well, somebody did | 16:12 |
| kinus | and gparted wants to make new table, destroying everything | 16:12 |
| dbmoodb | hi ah does shutdown -r -f --- still work for rebooting and fscking the file system ? | 16:12 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: ah, noup | 16:12 |
| dbmoodb | its not in the man file on ubuntu | 16:12 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: let's see | 16:12 |
| taes81 | im pretty new to linunx how would i mount it | 16:13 |
| Solet | bastid_raZor: do you know of a gui app to do it? | 16:13 |
| soundray | dbmoodb: I don't think it does (didn't when I last tried), but 'sudo touch /forcefsck ; sudo shutdown -r now' works | 16:13 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: thanks for in advance | 16:13 |
| LimCore | kde wallet doesn't work... splended | 16:13 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, well if it works, you're welcome. | 16:13 |
| dbmoodb | soundray: why was -f removed ? | 16:13 |
| soundray | dbmoodb: I don't know | 16:13 |
| weezelding | that Xorg blanking is still a mystery | 16:13 |
| joaopinto | taes81, you dont mount it, during install, when you create the partition you can also define its "mount point", on that field you must set "/", which means that will be the root (base) of your system | 16:13 |
| badcloud | soundray, '/var/log/cups' has 'access_log cups-pdf_log error_log page_log', all empty | 16:14 |
| joaopinto | taes81, and you choose use ext3 instead of ext2 | 16:14 |
| bastid_raZor | Solet; http://linuxreviews.org/software/ftp-clients/ a good place to look | 16:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, sorry, I missed that problem. I just dragged my lazy @$$ out of bed. | 16:15 |
| feers | hi all | 16:15 |
| gizmobay | Does anyone know which package includes ernno.h? | 16:15 |
| taes81 | joaopinto: so windows will be second in line i already made the partition with partition magic though | 16:15 |

| feers | i have trouble with driver for canon FAX-L120 where i can get it? | 16:15 |
| Werdna | Hi! I'm unable to have webcam conversations in kopete. I've traced the problem to an ICMP packet my machine is sending out which states that the connection is being 'administratively filtered'. Is there some firewall in ubuntu by default which I don't know about? I checked hosts.allow/hosts.deny already. | 16:15 |
| jpds | !apt-file | gizmobay | 16:16 |
| ubottu | gizmobay: apt-file is a program that can tell you which package(s) contain(s) a given filename. To install it and generate the database it needs, run "sudo apt-get install apt-file && sudo apt-file update" | 16:16 |
| LunarLinuxKitten | ummm | 16:16 |
| weezelding | Seven_Six_Two: getting a blanked screen after random time in Xorg. restarting kdm won't do anything, neither loading i915 again. only way to get it up and running again is boot | 16:16 |
| soundray | gizmobay: there doesn't appear to be an ernno.h, but plenty of errno.h -- I guess you should install build-essential | 16:16 |

| Pici | LunarLinuxKitten: What do you mean by 'allow ssh'? | 16:17 |
| soundray | LunarLinuxKitten: sudo apt-get install ssh | 16:17 |
| joaopinto | LunarLinuxKitten, you need to install the ssh server | 16:17 |

| sivelwork | weezelding: I ran into a similar issue. Running "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg --frontend=gnome" and reconfiguring xorg seemed to fix the problem | 16:17 |
| OddishB | Bogaurd: Depends. Do you have any drivers that aren't in the kernel that you use? | 16:18 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, it sounds to me like apm isn't working for you. you should be able to adjust the power settings in kde | 16:18 |
| soundray | Bogaurd: it's normally okay if you follow the instructions. Do have a backup, though, especially if you're worried. | 16:18 |
| weezelding | sivelwork: i actually have kde | 16:18 |
| Bogaurd | ehm, sorry jamiejackson, Hardy I guess :P | 16:18 |
| sivelwork | well then replace that with kde | 16:18 |

| micd198 | hello | 16:19 |

| Seven_Six_Two | berent, the graphical login screen? it's supposed to, but you can turn it off if you want. | 16:19 |
| ASULutzy | Bogaurd: Be careful | 16:19 |
| ASULutzy | Bogaurd: Ubuntu loves to not boot from degraded arrays | 16:20 |
| gizmobay | the build-essential has the errno.h file I need? | 16:20 |
| OddishB | Bogaurd: For the most part, everything should be fine. NDIS NICs may have to be set up again, NVidia proprietary drivers will have to be rebuilt. As far as the RAID, I have no idea. | 16:20 |
| soundray | gizmobay: probably# | 16:20 |
| fr4nk-k | Anarhist: I had the same problem some months ago; in the end it was just a wrong-configured alsamixer; so maybe try to set all channels in the alsamixer to 100%? | 16:20 |
| Seven_Six_Two | weezelding, that's odd. what video card do you have? | 16:20 |
| weezelding | it might be that sucky video shadow memory what they use with intel mac mini's | 16:20 |
| Bogaurd | ASULutzy: yeah, I've run into that a bunch of times now :( | 16:20 |

| kane77 | *psi | 16:20 |
| OddishB | Bogaurd: But if it's just a server, I think the only thing you have to worry about are the RAID and the NIC. | 16:21 |

| aata | ASULutzy i checked the makefile. it says mkdir -p $(MODPATH)/net^M | 16:25 |
| aata | cp $(MODULE) $(MODPATH)/net^M | 16:25 |
| joaopinto | aata, that ^M is from a windows editor, you should remove it | 16:25 |
| aata | ASULutzy i think it doesnt know where $(MODULE) is, so the cp command is left incomplete | 16:26 |
| Seven_Six_Two | aata, is modpath being set? can you echo that var? | 16:26 |
| javatexan | is there an embedded version of ubuntu? | 16:26 |
| aata | joapinto i opened it in vi | 16:26 |
| aata | Seven_Six_Two which variable | 16:26 |
| Seven_Six_Two | aata, $MODPATH | 16:27 |
| weezelding | aata: replacing ^M in vim, would go like this: vim -b filetoopen and after vim has opened: :%s/\r\n/\n/gi | 16:27 |
| ASULutzy | aata: Yea, you need to get rid of the ^M's, there are lots of ways to do this, vim works, I think there's a dos2unix that basically does it, you could use tr to do it.... | 16:28 |

| mistergibson | thanks | 17:00 |
| irega | yes | 17:00 |
| irega | connecting all the time | 17:00 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: okay it could just be a bad .iso file, try donwloading again, except try with a download manager | 17:00 |
| weezelding | mistergibson: or if you need a console based, use aptitude | 17:01 |
| === Jimboez is now known as stony | ||

| FloodBot3 | !netsplit | 17:01 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 17:01 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: i bilieve that the initramfs is to load the kernek into the ram memory, so perhaps i have some problem with that hardware... | 17:01 |

| === pteague_laptop is now known as pteague_work | ||
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: i've checked the md5sum of my iso | 17:02 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: if it stops at busybox it is more indicative of a bad .iso, run a md5 check if you know how | 17:02 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: ah so the md5sum is fine? | 17:02 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: yes | 17:02 |
| legend2440 | miguelrsilva: are you using Wubi? | 17:02 |
| Seven_Six_Two | miguelrsilva, do you have a computer from mdg or some other low cost oem? | 17:03 |
| weezelding | pteague_work: why not to use /away | 17:03 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: but yet i hat to burn a second CD to get to this ponit. the firt one chached evean erlyer | 17:03 |
| ASULutzy | miguelrsilva: Checking the md5 of the .iso and checking that it burned properly are two totally different things, did you choose the verify CD option from the boot menu? | 17:03 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: sory. whats mdg? | 17:04 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: hmm im not sure, in my opinion to be safe I would get another copy of the .iso and burn another cd | 17:04 |
| pteague_work | weezelding: /away ? for what? | 17:04 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: that was Seven_Six_Two question | 17:04 |
| ASULutzy | miguelrsilva: checking the md5 of the .iso means it downloaded properly. Just because it downloaded properly does not mean it burned properly. You should check the cd integrity from the boot menu | 17:04 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: i think it is a low cost machine... :-O | 17:04 |
| Seven_Six_Two | miguelrsilva, yes. my gf had that problem on a low cost machine. she had to fiddle in the bios to get ubuntu to boot. otherwise it was all busybox all the time. | 17:05 |
| definitely | Anyone are useing FireStarter Firewall ? | 17:06 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: freezing at busybox usually means that necessary files could not be loaded into the memory and therefore the livecd could not be loaded, this usually happens when there is a bad disc/.iso and the necessary file is missing or corrupted | 17:06 |
| Seven_Six_Two | I think it was a proprietary bios issue | 17:06 |
| === linux_ is now known as Guest75821 | ||
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: however it could also mean that you have some very incompatible hardware | 17:06 |
| Ziroday | definitely: what is your problem? | 17:06 |
| weezelding | definitely: i've used | 17:06 |
| ASULutzy | miguelrsilva: Again, you should really test the cd integrity from the live-cd itself, when it boots up pick test-cd integrity. Dropping to busy box usually points to a bad burn. If you're 100% sure the CD is good, then we could start trying to figure out what's up hardware wise, but you definitely should check the CD integrity first. | 17:06 |
| Gyver | Does anyone know how to repair a bios | 17:07 |
| definitely | Ziroday: Just dont understand the events, what they exatcly means.. | 17:07 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, how is it broken? | 17:07 |
| Ziroday | definitely: gimme a sec to install it | 17:07 |
| adac | I have a problem with munin. The munin node cannt connect to the server. This is what munin-node.log says: http://pastebin.com/m449db169 | 17:07 |
| definitely | ziroday: Ok, coz i am watching "Blocked Connection" and there seems very very much.. | 17:08 |
| Gyver | the only screen that dispalys is please insert floppy | 17:08 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: is there a way to check the CD from my windows machine? | 17:08 |
| weezelding | Gyver: maybe you've run out of bios battery? | 17:08 |
| javatexan | I am trying to find a toolchain and embedded linux for development on a http://www.vortex86sx.com/default.htm. I am new to embedded linux and it looks like most of the budding distros have died out. Could I use Ubuntu for this board, if so, where to start reading :) | 17:08 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, have you checked the boot order in BIOS? | 17:08 |
| ASULutzy | Gyver: Before you reflash them, I would try switching your CMOS jumper to reset them. If that doesn't work, you'll have to flash them with the latest BIOS from manufacturer's website | 17:08 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: besides the md5sum check nope, you could try a disc integrity check but that depends on your disc vurning app | 17:08 |
| Gyver | you cant boot into bios at all just please insert floppy | 17:08 |
| === _stony is now known as stony | ||
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, if you're not given the opportunity, then your bios is pooched. It should do the POST, then give you the option to enter the bios setup | 17:09 |
| Ziroday | definitely: just finished installing, I have a feeling that those are just your current connections, not what is blocked | 17:09 |

| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, do you get beeps when you turn your computer on? | 17:10 |
| weezelding | definitely: it just shows you are blocking packets. that doesn't mean anything special. normal behaviour though. | 17:10 |
| Ziroday | definitely: however I am not sure | 17:10 |
| Gyver | i know (sadly) that's why i asked about the broken bios | 17:10 |
| === onebeer is now known as Onebeer | ||

| yowshi | how do i get the vm machine able to access things like the usb drive and my actual harddrive? | 17:10 |
| weezelding | yowshi: be more pedantic | 17:11 |
| Gyver | the first screen was no cmos battery so i put one in | 17:11 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, the beeps at the beginning tell you what's wrong. | 17:11 |
| yowshi | weezelding: huh? | 17:11 |
| weezelding | which virtual machine | 17:11 |
| Ziroday | definitely: have a look http://www.fs-security.com/docs/events-page.php | 17:11 |

| Gyver | tell me more | 17:11 |
| Ziroday | michael: hi | 17:11 |
| yowshi | i am running a windows box on innotek virtualbox | 17:11 |
| ASULutzy | yowshi: The open source edition of virtualbox doesn't allow for direct disk passthrough to hard drive(this is dangerous and I wouldn't recommend it) the smarter thing to do would be to just setup a shared folder. For example I am sharing /home/$USER/share with my Windows guest OS in Virtualbox | 17:11 |
| yowshi | ASULutzy: yeah i was kind of asking how to do that | 17:12 |
| weezelding | for example using samba | 17:12 |

| scorpionglitch | How do I get my NTFS auto-mount again, like in gutsy? | 17:13 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, one beep followed by 3, 4 or 5 beeps indicate motherboard problems. usually dma, cmos setup, timer or system bus | 17:13 |

| bluefoxicy | anyone know how to fix a broken sound juicer? | 17:13 |

| Scunizi | Jack_Sparrow: on WOP install of .run files is it sh <filename.run> or sudo sh <filename.run>.. It's been a while since I delt with .run files. | 17:14 |
| michael | how i can run program windows in ubuntu | 17:14 |
| scorpionglitch | thanks I'll try that | 17:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, if there are no beeps at all, it's either the processor, bios or motherboard. | 17:14 |
| kacheng | anyone tried to install ubuntu Brainstorm locally? i need some help configuring it up. | 17:14 |
| Gyver | it was a constant beep | 17:14 |
| bluefoxicy | the "output format" field is blank, and all types (i.e. lossy Ogg CD quality) are not there | 17:14 |
| ASULutzy | yowshi: If you mouseover something it tells you how to do it. If it's windows you just use net view or whatever the command is | 17:14 |
| bluefoxicy | i tried a different user, same thing | 17:14 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, that's a power supply problem | 17:14 |
| Scunizi | michael: you mean can you run Windows XX in ubuntu? | 17:14 |

| Scunizi | michael: or do you want to run a windows program in Ubuntu? | 17:15 |
| miguelrsilva | Ziroday: is there a way to check if the CD has the same contents of the iso from windows? | 17:15 |
| michael | run windows vista program in ubuntu | 17:15 |
| ASULutzy | yowshi: Once you open your VM, click Devices, and then shared folders, right click on the shared folder, and hit "what's this" and it has info on how to set it up | 17:15 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gyver, constant, or continuous? beep beep beep beep...etc or beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep | 17:15 |

| Scunizi | *kind | 17:15 |
| Soul_Sample | Scunizi: trust wireles deskset 3010A | 17:15 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: under brasaero it is called a "intergrity check" however I am not sure of an app that can do it in windwos | 17:15 |
| Ziroday | miguelrsilva: I recommend try a new iso on a new cd | 17:16 |
| yowshi | ASULutzy: by which i mean i didnt understand the instruction i tried entering that command into the cli in windows with home\blah\sharedfolder in place of share | 17:16 |
| Soul_Sample | i rarely use it only as a remote to pause a movie, or to skip a part of it, but it's almost impossible because it keeps doing other things | 17:16 |
| Scunizi | michael: probably not but you could ask in #winehq or check prog. compatibility under wine on the Wine website. | 17:16 |

| Scunizi | Soul_Sample: when I was running it for my Comfort Curve I had to ctrl+alt+f2 .. login.. then sudo shutdown now to get the system to shutdown correctly. | 17:19 |
| Ziroday | fg3: try just overwriting the permissions with the same | 17:19 |
| fg3 | Ziroday, ok | 17:19 |

| _niek_ | ah, Ziroday was it, thank you Ziroday | 17:19 |
| Ziroday | _niek_: no problem, have fun | 17:19 |

| legend2440 | Gyver: which bios award ami? | 17:20 |
| Gyver | so i thought the bios was damaged went to the manufacturer site and tried to flash it but no luck (no experience) | 17:20 |
| elliotjhug | Ziroday: ah ok, I've heard of that one before - what's the generally used way to search using it? (and configure it so it indexes all the right places) | 17:20 |
| Soul_Sample | Scunizi: tried that, and didn't really work. it's especially annoying that the arrow keys act as print screen when using it. | 17:20 |
| fg3 | Ziroday, same --> http://dpaste.com/59980/ | 17:20 |
| weezelding | Scunizi: ./file.run | 17:20 |

| Ziroday | SrgSantos54: to do what? | 17:22 |
| hylje | greetings; for some reason my other laptop fails to obtain IP addresses for network interfaces (wired/wireless); other machine with less updated ubuntu works fine with the same uplink | 17:22 |
| legend2440 | Gyver: here are the Award BIOS Beep Codes: http://www.bioscentral.com/beepcodes/awardbeep.htm | 17:23 |

| Ziroday | fg3: dunno not familiar with selinux sorry | 17:24 |
| weezelding | so count it out | 17:24 |
| Soul_Sample | Scunizi: maybe this will help to find the problem - when the num lock is off, the arrow keys work okay, but when it's on, then they act like print screen | 17:24 |
| SrgSantos54 | mmm i have no idea it is integrated in my desktop | 17:24 |
| SrgSantos54 | where can i find that | 17:24 |

| Seven_Six_Two | SrgSantos54, but not all cards' drivers are compatible with monitor mode | 17:26 |
| magnetron | SrgSantos54, install the aircrack package and run the "airmon-ng" command in a terminal. that's all | 17:26 |

| Bodsda | greenfishx3, try rm | 17:28 |
| Soul_Sample | Scunizi: yes, i had that problem, killed all assistive technologies. i should maybe note that my wired keyboard behaves well, it's only the wireless one that's confusing arrow keys for print screen | 17:28 |
| wildman4god | Can anyone in here help me with a gnome problem | 17:28 |
| hylje | weezelding: i'll check up however, lemme find a solution for that | 17:28 |
| Seven_Six_Two | greenfishx3, because this isn't DOS | 17:28 |
| greenfishx3 | Bodsda: yes I know hehe, but I mean why is "del" not there? I know del is just rm -i | 17:29 |
| magnetron | greenfishx3, "del" was never a part of any unix. | 17:29 |
| Ziroday | greenfishx3: I think that was a dos command, you can always alias it | 17:29 |
| Bodsda | greenfishx3, and you would need to complain to bash, its not ubuntu's fault. | 17:29 |
| greenfishx3 | ohhhhhhh | 17:29 |
| weezelding | greenfishx3: you might do this way: alias del="/bin/rm -i" | 17:29 |
| Scunizi | Soul_Sample: sorry beyond that I'm stuck.. | 17:29 |
| greenfishx3 | sorry my bad then, I just assumed it was a function in the past, thanks weezelding | 17:29 |
| hylje | Bodsda: ubuntu ships the bash and its environment, it's not too much of a stretch | 17:29 |

| Soul_Sample | wildman4god: it would maybe help us figure out if we can help if you would be so nice to state the problem | 17:30 |
| Bodsda | fma243, you need to add a line in /etc/fstab | 17:31 |
| Ziroday | fma243: look into /etc/fstab | 17:31 |
| junix-br | ndiswrapper and NetworkManager don't work fine together =/ | 17:31 |
| Scunizi | Soul_Sample: there are a couple of programs that will do this for you.. you'll need to google them though or ask an open question here.. I've forgotten the names of them.. sometimes you have to use both.. occationally dmesg at terminal will reveal things. | 17:31 |
| hylje | weezelding: hold on, i'll shut down this machine and use my phone for irc instead | 17:31 |
| greenfishx3 | according to "linux cookbook 2001" del is a unix funciton | 17:31 |
| tvrtko | fma243: check on google about /etc/fstab | 17:31 |
| fma243 | what line should i add | 17:31 |
| Seven_Six_Two | SrgSantos54, I don't see a wireless card there. is it usb? | 17:31 |
| weezelding | hylje: ok | 17:31 |
| Ziroday | junix-br: thats cause ndiswrapper is a mess | 17:31 |
| LunarLinuxKitten | halp | 17:31 |
| wildman4god | my dell latitude d600 with ubuntu 8.04 updated some software after I enabled the bottom two options in the update tab of software sources (backports and something else) I then did a restart but gnome won't start I just get a cli and I try to manually start gnome but it fails | 17:31 |
| Ziroday | LunarLinuxKitten: we need to know how | 17:31 |
| wasob | Hey guys | 17:31 |
| junix-br | Zigtown_, humm | 17:32 |
| tvrtko | del doesn't work for me | 17:32 |
| weezelding | greenfishx3: linux is not unix | 17:32 |
| LunarLinuxKitten | how do i add write access to something | 17:32 |
| greenfishx3 | weezelding: I know that | 17:32 |
| wasob | Got a weird problem here...I upgradded from Feisty, ot Gutsy, and now I get "No screens found" | 17:32 |
| greenfishx3 | but the author said its used in linu as well | 17:32 |
| greenfishx3 | linux* | 17:32 |
| junix-br | Ziroday, and there is a solution? | 17:32 |
| weezelding | neither my openbsd has that command | 17:32 |
| Buckeye | Well this stinks | 17:32 |
| tvrtko | just use rm | 17:32 |
| greenfishx3 | I KNOW that | 17:32 |
| tvrtko | :) | 17:32 |
| weezelding | why not to do alias? | 17:32 |
| weezelding | problem solved. | 17:32 |
| Bodsda | fma243, look at the existing lines in your /etc/fstab to help understand what you need to add | 17:32 |
| SrgSantos54 | Seven_six_two > no it is a integrated wifi card | 17:32 |
| greenfishx3 | It wasnt a problem in the first place | 17:33 |
| Ziroday | junix-br: dont know sorry, I am aware that ndiswrapper does not play nice with anything | 17:33 |
| Scunizi | !who | weezelding | 17:33 |
| weezelding | ? | 17:33 |
| greenfishx3 | Im just curious why Michael Stutz claims its used in linux | 17:33 |
| greenfishx3 | he started using linux in 1990 | 17:33 |
| Bodsda | bots a bit slow today | 17:33 |
| junix-br | my wifi doesn't work with free drivers :( | 17:33 |
| Buckeye | The partioner won't recognize my partition when the sata controller is set to IDE mode. It will recognize it in AHCI mode but then my vista installation won't boot :< any suggestions? | 17:33 |
| Seven_Six_Two | SrgSantos54, is there a switch on the laptop to turn it on and off? because there isn't one listed in the devices (even one that linux doesn't recognize) | 17:33 |
| Flannel | greenfishx3: Because he's wrong in the book. It happens. | 17:33 |
| tvrtko | yeah | 17:33 |
| tvrtko | del is a dos command | 17:34 |
| tvrtko | maybe he had some alias in his bash profile | 17:34 |
| tvrtko | :) | 17:34 |
| tvrtko | and forgot about it | 17:34 |
| wildman4god | is there a ubuntu support chat with less people in it i'm getting lost | 17:35 |
| codazoda | Hi all. My "Add / Remove Programs" menu item went away. I suspect maybe my sudo settings could have caused this. True? | 17:35 |
| greenfishx3 | I see | 17:35 |
| codazoda | I've tried to restore them to default. Sudo is working fine, for most things, but I'm not sure why that menu item went away. | 17:35 |
| greenfishx3 | 5.6.2 "A Safe Way to Remove a file" | 17:35 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: doubt it, you probably deleted it from your menu | 17:35 |
| codazoda | I don't think so. | 17:35 |
| legend2440 | greenfishx3: http://www.faqs.org/docs/linux_intro/app2.html | 17:36 |
| greenfishx3 | like I said its not a problem I was just curious, regardless thanks for telling me it never was a nix command | 17:36 |
| Bodsda | the bots dead? | 17:36 |
| hylje | weezelding: problematic lines: drivers sd and sr need updating, bus_type methods suggested in message | 17:36 |
| codazoda | Ziroday: In fact, I see it if I go to edit the menu's. But, if I check the box, it only stays checked for 2 seconds, then unchecks itself. | 17:36 |
| SrgSantos54 | i think it was off check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/24033/ | 17:36 |
| greenfishx3 | legend2440: ah yes, obviously the author was wrong | 17:36 |
| moshe_ | hi, the networkmanager service leaks memory, so i have to restart it once in a while, but i didn't find specific service in /etc/init.d for networkmanager, so have to restart dbus, but then it restarts guidance/power, and it breaks the systray icon | 17:36 |
| fma243 | can any one help me with my problem about mounting hard disks on boot up because on the web it looks that it can be dangerous | 17:36 |
| moshe_ | how to restart just networkmanager service? | 17:36 |
| tvrtko | codazoda: don't know, but why not use synaptic manager | 17:36 |
| tvrtko | ? | 17:36 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: open a terminal | 17:36 |
| weezelding | hylje: sd and sr? | 17:36 |
| yowshi | grrrr net use fails even when i try to set up a network by that name | 17:36 |
| SrgSantos54 | Seven_Six_two > it a desktop pc | 17:37 |
| codazoda | Well, the synaptic manager icon is also missing. | 17:37 |
| Bodsda | fma243, pastebin your fstab file, the output of sudo fdisk -l && sudo blkid | 17:37 |
| tvrtko | moshe_: sudo etc/init.d/networking restart | 17:37 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: and type in sudo gnome-app-installer | 17:37 |
| hylje | weezelding: yes, that is what it reads | 17:37 |
| fma243 | how to paste bin it? | 17:37 |
| moshe_ | tvrtko: this restarts only interfaces, not networkmanager | 17:37 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: does the program you are looking for popup? | 17:37 |
| hylje | weezelding: eth0 is e100 | 17:37 |
| Bodsda | !paste | 17:37 |

| tvrtko | ifconfig <interface> up | 17:37 |

| Seven_Six_Two | SrgSantos54, is it firewire? the one listed is the firewire controller, not a wifi card | 17:38 |

| greenfishx3 | thanks Pici, Bodsda | 17:41 |
| evilbug | gunny17- and when you talk to a specific person, start with their nick name (like i am doing). | 17:41 |
| carrera | what was the German OpenSource VM that was ment for running Win XP called again? | 17:41 |

| Seven_Six_Two | SrgSantos54, sorry, that's not a valid argument for anything. do you have an antenna sticking out of the back of your computer? | 17:41 |
| codazoda | Ziroday: I just tried "sudo apt-get install gnome-app-installer" and it can't find the package. Might it be part of something else or another name? | 17:41 |
| carrera | Ziroday, I think that's it. Thanks dude! | 17:41 |
| gunny17 | evilbug, ok, will do, thanks | 17:41 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: its gnome-app-install not installer | 17:41 |
| Bodsda | fma243, i also need you to pastebin the output of this command sudo fdisk -l && sudo blkid | 17:42 |
| fma243 | on terminal right | 17:42 |
| Bodsda | fma243, correct | 17:42 |
| SrgSantos54 | Seven_Six_Two > yes is wlan | 17:42 |
| Ziroday | carrera: have fun | 17:42 |
| Bodsda | codazoda, tab complete is your friend, write half of the package name then hit tab twice | 17:42 |
| codazoda | Ziroday: Okay. I can run it from the terminal now. Still not in my menu's, for some reason. | 17:42 |
| tvrtko | codazoda: apt-get install synaptic | 17:43 |
| Seven_Six_Two | SrgSantos54, and it's enabled in the bios? Was it working in linux before, or just windows? | 17:43 |
| Flannel | greenfishx3: It does, but its not. http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/unix_for_dos_users.html is the first reference I can find on google about it | 17:43 |
| weezelding | codazoda: or use apt-cache search term | 17:43 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: try checking the tick box again, and did you uninstall a bunch of stuff? | 17:43 |
| SrgSantos54 | linux | 17:43 |
| tico | is there a better place to go to ask my question? | 17:43 |
| fma243 | here it is http://paste.ubuntu.com/24035/ | 17:43 |
| Ziroday | tico: about what? | 17:43 |
| tico | Hi, I'm new to Ubuntu but have been a debian user for years... what are my options for a high-mem kernel for a 32bit system? apt-cache searching hasn't been fruitful... I have 8G of ram | 17:43 |
| codazoda | Bodsda: Thanks, I didn't realize tab complete could be used with apt-get. | 17:44 |
| Bodsda | fma243, and which drive do you want automounted? | 17:44 |
| weezelding | tico: i cannot parse a question | 17:44 |
| codazoda | Ziroday: I didn't uninstall anything, that I can recall. | 17:44 |
| fma243 | all of them | 17:44 |
| Bodsda | codazoda, it can be used for most things, including firefox's url bar | 17:44 |
| tico | what are my options for a high-mem kernel on a 32bit system? | 17:44 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: did reticking the checkbox in the menu editor make add/remove programs reappear? | 17:44 |
| Bodsda | fma243, then your gonna have to write each line, can i pm you? | 17:44 |
| tvrtko | codazoda: try installing synaptic ---> sudo apt-get install synaptic | 17:44 |
| fma243 | sure | 17:44 |
| codazoda | Ziroday: Although I can do it from the terminal now, I still can't get it in the menu. When I check it, it unchecks itself, still. synaptic is already installed. | 17:45 |
| codazoda | tvrtko: Says synaptic is already installed. | 17:45 |
| codazoda | Okay, so my real problem... Which I suspect is related. | 17:45 |
| Ziroday | codazoda: not sure what you have done there | 17:45 |
| weezelding | tico: it's kernel related | 17:45 |
| codazoda | When I try to add a printer, it prompts for a password. | 17:45 |
| skate92 | how do i close all apllications? | 17:45 |

| tvrtko | codazoda: etit menus and add it aggan, or create shortcut on desktop :) | 17:46 |
| tico | weezelding, right, that's why I asked "what are my options for a high-mem kernel" | 17:46 |
| codazoda | tvrtko: I don't mind using the command line. | 17:46 |
| definitely | Do i need to care about getting hacked, when i am useing Ubuntu | 17:46 |
| definitely | ? | 17:46 |
| skate92 | how do i end all applications? | 17:46 |
| LSD|Ninja | skate92: hit the power button :P | 17:46 |
| Seven_Six_Two | skate92, shutdown -h now | 17:46 |
| weezelding | definitely: you always have to take care | 17:46 |
| tvrtko | lol | 17:46 |
| Ziroday | definitely: as long as you have a secure password, and dont leave stuff like ssh open to the outside world and keep your system updated then nope | 17:47 |
| tico | definitely, you need to worry about getting hacked when running any network-connected OS | 17:47 |
| greenfishx3 | Im reading the book right now, he claims if you delete a hard link+original file both files gets deleted? example test a (source) test b (hard link) I tried removing test b, and guess what a is still there | 17:47 |
| weezelding | Ziroday: i'm even paranoid while using openbsd :) | 17:47 |
| kamal | salut les gars | 17:47 |
| Ziroday | weezelding: lol | 17:48 |
| Flannel | legend2440: Its not a command, its an alias | 17:48 |
| weezelding | Ziroday: :D | 17:48 |
| weezelding | hehe | 17:48 |
| tico | weezelding, should I assume that no one here knows the answer to my question? | 17:48 |
| codazoda | I think my printer issue is related, however. If I add a printer, select it from the list, select the HP driver, give it a name, and then it prompts with "password for joel on localhost?". I enter my password, and it asks again. Ideas? | 17:48 |
| Seven_Six_Two | greenfishx3, I suggest a different book. that one seems to have lots of bad info. maybe you should try "linux administration guide" | 17:48 |
| weezelding | tico: i still cannot find out what you are looking for | 17:48 |
| kamal | hi | 17:48 |
| hylje | network fails to work after driver goes up before getting Ip/settings info. concerned driver is e100 and a intel wireless driver | 17:48 |
| weezelding | tico: high mem? how much | 17:48 |
| selocol | Hello, while my wireless connection works on Ubuntu, it is noticeably more laggier, especially because I can't even enter an online game (through game) because of high lag. This would seldom happen if I played it in Windows. How do I debug this problem? | 17:48 |
| legend2440 | Flannel: oh ok that explains it. would that be in .bashrc? | 17:48 |
| Ziroday | tico: you can always come back later, but you may have more luck on the forums or with googling | 17:48 |
| tico | weezelding, 8G like I said | 17:48 |
| selocol | through wine* | 17:48 |
| tico | >4 is all that matters though I think | 17:48 |
| Flannel | legend2440: It is | 17:48 |
| legend2440 | Flannel: ok thanks | 17:49 |
| greenfishx3 | Seven_Six_Two: so this is yet another bad part from the author? creating a hard link and removing it will NEVER remove the source as well? | 17:49 |
| tico | Ziroday, I've been googling :) irc is always a last resort | 17:49 |
| weezelding | tico: compile your own kernel to support it? | 17:49 |
| codazoda | I'm going to reboot, now that I've got sudo working... TTYL | 17:49 |
| kamal | salut les gars | 17:49 |
| weezelding | tico: and pack it up same way than in debian | 17:49 |
| tico | weezelding, sure, I was hoping to do things the Ubutnu way | 17:49 |
| greenfishx3 | then whats the diff between a hard link vs symbolic? I thought the main diff was that a hard link deletes both files, while a symbolic link retains the source? | 17:49 |
| Ziroday | tico: I know what you are asking for, I have some debian systems. But I doubt there is a 'ubuntu' way in this case | 17:50 |
| tico | and the ubuntu wiki says something like avoid doing your own kernel at all costs | 17:50 |
| tico | ok thanks | 17:50 |
| tico | have a good day all | 17:50 |
| Ziroday | tico: you too | 17:50 |
| hylje | no, wireless is Intensil Prism 2.5 which had a working driver earlier | 17:50 |
| weezelding | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile | 17:51 |
| weezelding | damn, he went | 17:51 |
| Ziroday | weezelding: youre too late | 17:51 |
| greenfishx3 | then whats the diff between a hard link vs symbolic? I thought the main diff was that a hard link deletes both files, while a symbolic link retains the source? | 17:51 |
| Ziroday | weezelding: but I think he had already found that wiki | 17:51 |
| weezelding | hope so | 17:52 |
| sipior | greenfishx3: a hard link is another reference to the same file, and cannot point across filesystems. a symbolic link simply contains the path to another file as its contents, and is treated specially by the operating system | 17:52 |
| SwedeMike | greenfishx3: the hard link increases a counter in the fs and points directly to the file, a symbolic link points to another filesystem pointer | 17:52 |
| hylje | greenfishx3: deleting a hard link removes that link to the file. so long any of the hard links stand, the file exists | 17:52 |

| Jack_Sparrow | neurobuntu You need to get your video card setup correctly | 18:01 |
| === Kopfgeldjaeger2 is now known as Kopfgeldjaeger | ||
| neurobuntu | Jack_Sparrow: so my card is running correctly. I have the nvidia-glx-new running correctly | 18:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neurobuntu and composite is an extension of that | 18:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neurobuntu /join #compiz | 18:03 |
| neurobuntu | Jack_Sparrow: in #compiz they say its because I have xinerama enabled | 18:03 |
| neurobuntu | I just went there. thanks | 18:04 |
| asmo[B] | is there a good VNC in the packages? | 18:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neurobuntu You cannot have xinerama and nvidia | 18:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | and run composite | 18:04 |
| grobda24 | asmo[B] ... already installed on default install :) | 18:04 |
| BlackRece | hiya ppl, why can't i ping my internal router via eth0? | 18:04 |
| asmo[B] | grobda24: what's it called? | 18:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neurobuntu It just wont work | 18:04 |
| sipior | BlackRece: that's a rather open-ended question | 18:04 |
| neurobuntu | ok thanks | 18:04 |
| asmo[B] | grobda24: and is it a VNC server? | 18:05 |
| grobda24 | asmo[B] .. apps --> internet --> remort desktop | 18:05 |
| grobda24 | remote* | 18:05 |
| karllenz | anyone help with lvm?? | 18:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !raid | 18:05 |

| grobda24 | asmo[B] .. not sure. I think it is VNC. | 18:05 |
| adamb_ | So I am doing a rsync -a to a remote host via ssh, and sometimes I get a error of: "delete_file: rmdir Directory not empty" Im confused why its trying to delete, rsync should just transfer changes from src to dst, no --delete flag i am using. Could anyone shed some light? | 18:05 |
| asmo[B] | grobda24: it's just a viewer... I need a server that I can connect to with any other VNC client... a lot of them seem to make it so that the client has to be the same as the server | 18:06 |
| Dr_willis | asmo[B], Huh.. Ive never had any issues with about any client i grab.. they all seem to work with about any server i try to connect to | 18:07 |
| neurobuntu | anybody here use synergy? | 18:07 |
| Dr_willis | asmo[B], i tend to use the vnc4server package and viewer however. | 18:07 |
| grobda24 | asmo[B] .. really. lol. I wondered why I could'nt connect back into my Ubuntu box :P thanks for that | 18:07 |
| Dr_willis | neurobuntu, its better to ask the real question.. not 'does anyone...' | 18:07 |
| BlackRece | sipior: I have a cable modem into this feisty box via eth1, then via eth0 to a linksys (wrt54gs v5.1) router to wired xp pc and 2 wireless xp laptops. but i can't ping router from feisty box and don't get traffic from eth0 to router. any ideas? | 18:07 |
| Unislash | how do i set it so that ubuntu saves its /home stuff on a specified partition? | 18:07 |
| Dr_willis | Unislash, mount /home to the new partition. | 18:07 |
| asmo[B] | Dr_willis: vnc4server shows up in the applications list after installing the package? | 18:08 |
| Dr_willis | Unislash, or link it to the new partition mount point | 18:08 |
| Dr_willis | asmo[B], its a server and does not have an icon. :) | 18:08 |
| Unislash | thanks :) | 18:08 |
| borgista | BlackRece: why don't you just connect the modem to the router directly? | 18:08 |
| codazoda | I changed my systems hostname to ubuntell. In /etc/hosts I have "localhost" as 127.0.0.1 and "ubuntell" as 127.0.1.1. I think ubuntell should also be 127.0.0.1. Can I just change this in the hosts file? Or, should I configure it elsewhere? | 18:08 |
| asmo[B] | Dr_willis: where do I go to configure it then? | 18:08 |
| neurobuntu | I used synergy a ton under Gutsy but now under Hardy I find that the client gets really jumpy and tends to lag everynow and then.... I head that if you run synergyc with sudo it should take care of it, but I'm still getting some lag.... anybody else experience this or know how to fix it? | 18:09 |
| neurobuntu | heard* | 18:09 |
| skate92 | i can't download anything it says i need to close all my applications how do i do that? | 18:09 |
| sipior | BlackRece: could you pastebin the output of the following commands: "/sbin/ifconfig", "/sbin/route -n" | 18:09 |
| borgista | skate92: What are you trying to close? | 18:09 |
| Dr_willis | asmo[B], the various vnc servers have config files in the user home dir they read, or the system wide config files. The man pages normally detail what the specific config files are. | 18:09 |
| Pici | codazoda: That should be correct, make sure that you've also modified /etc/hostname | 18:09 |
| Pici | codazoda: Rather, what you have there is correct, no need to change it | 18:09 |
| Dr_willis | asmo[B], or give it command line options | 18:09 |

| ubott2 | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 18:10 |
| borgista | skate92: software management tool? Is that Synaptic? | 18:10 |

| Dr_willis | mien07, or any title either? try alt-f2 -> metacity --replace | 18:10 |

| mien07 | dr_willis nothing happens | 18:12 |
| codazoda | sipior: In this case, the services dialog. Same thing happens in the "Users and Groups" dialog. | 18:12 |
| BlackRece | sipior: pastebin as follows, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24042/ | 18:12 |
| skate92 | so how do i close synaptic or aptitude? | 18:12 |
| Unislash | hmmmm... ubuntu doesn't seem to be recognizing my other partitions... i am dualbooting, and have 4 partitions: Windows|Ubuntu Data|Ubuntu Install|Swap. It's not really recognizing anything. Gparted is just showing one big unallocated space | 18:12 |
| Tukotih | just close it | 18:12 |
| borgista | skate92: you can always log in and out. | 18:12 |
| skate92 | yeah i tried that | 18:13 |
| skate92 | i restarted it | 18:13 |
| mien07 | dr willis its still the same..nothing happens..i deleted my title bar..where the minimize,maximize and exit button is found..how can i bring it back??? | 18:13 |
| Tukotih | then turn off your comp... | 18:13 |

| Starnestommy | mien07: how did you delete it in the first place? | 18:13 |
| Dr_willis | mien07, what do you mean by 'delete titlebar' perhaps you are confiusing the issue. if the window manager crashes you will lose all the window decoration. Normally this is due to compiz crashing, running metacity should restore it. It may be easier to just logout/back in | 18:13 |
| borgista | BlackRece: yes, I just had to make some changes to my router set up. PortForward which ever port you use to your home server. For example, I foward port 80 (which is http) | 18:14 |
| codazoda | sipior: Also having trouble adding printers. I get prompted for a password, enter it, then the prompt appears again. Also, The "Add/Remove Programs" menu item is missing. Something on my system can't authenticate me. Sudo works from the command line. | 18:14 |
| Tukotih | My atheros card still dont work | 18:14 |
| Tukotih | xD | 18:14 |
| borgista | BlackRece: most new routers have this option. | 18:14 |
| skate92 | ok so what am i supposed to do? | 18:14 |
| Tukotih | Ive tried everything now :p | 18:14 |
| borgista | skate92: Log out, then log back in and try what you're trying do again. | 18:14 |
| mien07 | the bar on the top of every window.. | 18:14 |
| skate92 | i tried that already | 18:15 |
| borgista | Tukotih: Do you have the restricted modules for your kernel? | 18:15 |

| tyranos | tukotih , are u on 64 or 32 bit | 18:15 |
| skate92 | it didnt work so now what? | 18:15 |

| superzombie | what type laptop? | 18:15 |

| mien07 | ok | 18:16 |
| BlackRece | borgista: so do you have ur firewall and webserver on the same pc? or do u just have ur router handle firewall stuff and let your server handle the web stuff? | 18:16 |
| === hfsdo_ is now known as hfsdo | ||
| borgista | Tukotih: make sure you have the corresponding modules for your kernel. Very important. | 18:16 |

| Jack_Sparrow | skate92 Do you know what a terminal is? | 18:30 |

| praveer_cool | What is the status of obextool on hardy heron for nokia smart phones> | 18:32 |
| greenfishx3 | http://students.estrellamountain.edu/larson/help/symlinks.htm "ln seattle emerald-city RET" This command makes a hard link from an existing file, `seattle', to a new file, `emerald-city'. You can read and edit file `emerald-city' just as you would `seattle'; any changes you make to `emerald-city' are also written to `seattle' (and vice versa). If you remove the file `emerald-city', file `seattle' is also removed. <-- they cahnged | 18:32 |
| greenfishx3 | this in linux? | 18:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !aptfix | 18:33 |
| praveer_cool | It seems i cannot have write permissions somehow | 18:33 |

| Jack_Sparrow | ne np | 18:33 |

| praveer_cool | infact obextool is a gui | 18:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Josdell look into reconstructor | 18:34 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, thats a specific command, thats common under unix/linux and similer os's. specifically thats a feature of the filesystems also. | 18:34 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, and it does work that way.. if its the LAST hard link to the file. :) | 18:34 |
| BlackRece | sipior: thats the result of firestarter, ipmasq dnsmasq and installing a netgear wireless addapter!!! | 18:34 |
| sipior | greenfishx3: try it out. it will become immediately apparent that that is not the case :-) | 18:34 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, if a file has 4 hard links to it from different places. it will only get deleted if all are deleted. | 18:35 |
| greenfishx3 | Dr_willis: sipior i did and the file still remains | 18:35 |
| raghav_ | hi all | 18:35 |
| raghav__ | hi all | 18:35 |
| greenfishx3 | Dr_willis: I followed the example, but my file still remains | 18:35 |
| praveer_cool | it seems i have to figure it out myself | 18:35 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, theres also a differance btween a hard link and soft link.. the file has its original name also. | 18:35 |
| raghav__ | i just upgraded to hardy | 18:35 |
| greenfishx3 | Dr_willis: yes but I followed the example and it doesnt work, thats why im really confused | 18:35 |
| sipior | greenfishx3: there is an error in the text, i'd guess | 18:35 |
| === bsolar_ is now known as bsolar | ||
| raghav__ | everything is working fine except sound | 18:36 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, the 'original' name - i guess you can consider identical to the hard link name. s | 18:36 |
| sipior | BlackRece: when you turn the firewall off, can you ping the router? | 18:36 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, all the linux books ive read explain it how i mention. | 18:36 |
| greenfishx3 | Dr_willis: are you telling me if I remove the hard link the original will also be deleted (like the text states) ? | 18:36 |

| NickoBravo | why is the gnome-keyring-daemon taking 45 Meg of ram to run. I got maybe 5 saved passwords in there..... | 18:37 |
| BlackRece | sipior: network tools won't start so, how do i ping via terminal? its not "ping ip/host" is it? | 18:37 |
| the-herby_ | no gui | 18:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | the-herby_ right click the iso and write to disk | 18:37 |
| raghav__ | the-herby: k3b | 18:37 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, make a hard link to a file. and it really is identical to the 'original' name. the filesystem cant tell the differance.. because there really is no differance | 18:37 |
| === jacques is now known as Guest52406 | ||
| sipior | BlackRece: thatt's it | 18:37 |
| greenfishx3 | Dr_willis you see I removed the hard link, but my original file still remains, but the book/example claims it should be deleted | 18:37 |
| miguelrsilva | if my md5sum is ok i don't have to worry about downloading the iso again, rigth? | 18:37 |
| sipior | greenfishx3: the book is wrong, my friend | 18:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | miguelrsilva correct | 18:37 |
| tilgovi | My amarok is freezing everytime I try to play a wav file. Any ideas? (xine backend) | 18:37 |
| Bliepo | correct | 18:37 |
| Dr_willis | greenfishx3, the book is wrong then. the 'original' name is technically a hard link also . i guess you can say | 18:37 |
| BlackRece | sipior: can't start a terminal!!! | 18:38 |
| greenfishx3 | Dr_willis, sipior thanks guys for the clarification | 18:38 |

| Pici | greenfishx3: dvd::rip or k9copy | 19:08 |
| ASULutzy | greenfishx3: So you want to convert the files to .avi ? | 19:08 |
| trashguy | greenfishx3, DD but, im assuming your HD is > dvd | 19:08 |
| trashguy | i read that backwards | 19:09 |
| greenfishx3 | ASULutzy: no, just rip my data dvd over to my hdd | 19:09 |
| greenfishx3 | trashguy: no sir my HD is my HD | 19:09 |

But I don't think that taking all the GPL'd work and selling it commercially is in the interest of the developers, unless you pay or donate to those developers. | 19:09 |
| greenfishx3 | whats dd? | 19:09 |
| ASULutzy | greenfishx3: I always take "rip" to mean take the DVD files and make them compressed .avi's, if you just want to make an iso you can just use dd in a command line | 19:09 |
| trashguy | greenfishx3, a command that comes with base linux | 19:10 |
| Gallez | greenfish3: if it's data dvd then why can't you just put it in and copy the contents to your hd? | 19:10 |
| ASULutzy | laslavic: I didn't say what would make me feel warm at night, I said that it's not illegal to sell Ubuntu CD's for 20 bucks a pop. | 19:10 |
| greenfishx3 | no no I dont want to make any iso lol.. I have lots of data dvds laying around.. I want to transfer the content onto my external, copy wont do, I need rip (more functions) | 19:10 |

| laslavic | ASULutzy: Depends on the country. | 19:10 |

| thegeekguy | Installing 8.04 Server connection to san using LSI DS3000 Drivers anyone have any issues with this type of install. Will RDAC work with 8.04? | 19:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | joanki123 No it is not sudo apt-get install firefox .......be patient for a minute or two | 19:24 |
| Unislash | RonLut: well, iirc... every program keeps its settings in /home | 19:24 |
| RonLut | copying .compiz and then pasting it in the new system will work? | 19:24 |
| drea242120 | anyone know how to make the uvc-stream work with vlc | 19:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Unislash fdisk partition info looks fine.. odd fstab though | 19:24 |
| Unislash | RonLut: not really sure, but that's my answer :) | 19:24 |
| Unislash | Jack_Sparrow: isn't it, though? :/ | 19:25 |
| RonLut | Unislash: copying .compiz and then pasting it in the new system will work? | 19:25 |
| RonLut | ok.. | 19:25 |
| greenfishx3 | when youre copying a dvd (data) by cp -r bla bla bal is it possible to view ETA percentage etc by a command? | 19:25 |
| Unislash | RonLut: i'm just giving a suggestion. I don't know if it will work. | 19:25 |
| Unislash | RonLut: It should, because people do keep their /home on a separate partition so that their settings stay when re-installing | 19:26 |

| greenfishx3 | trashguy are you sure theres no command or maybe a text (graphical) thing I can use? I prefer to use terminal as much as I can.. | 19:30 |
| afallenhope | jack-desktop, basically when I started on laptop I got 3 errors, one about my volume panel not working, the others were other things that Idon't know | 19:30 |
| Unislash | i think so too... | 19:30 |
| Unislash | jack_sparrow: what should i do with the gparted live cd? (other than run it :P) | 19:30 |
| greenfishx3 | trashguy i use bmon to print my network speed in console, you see what I mean? | 19:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Unislash see if it sees all your partitions.. 50 meg download and a handy tool to have in your box | 19:31 |
| trashguy | greenfishx3, i think there is a tool called midnight commander | 19:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Unislash does the ubuntu live cd see all your partitions | 19:32 |

| ASULutzy | adityag: Again, unrar | 19:35 |
| joanki123 | Jack_Sparrow, it still hasn't updated.... can i follow the instructions you were going to give me? | 19:35 |
| matthew_ | ASULutzy: i'm not sure, but I put it in lots of places, the lib folder, the program's lib folder, the lib64 folder, the lib32 folder, everywhere | 19:35 |
| trashguy | greenfishx3, you shouldnt have to use size | 19:36 |
| ASULutzy | joanki123: He's gone. If you're running hardy it should be as simple as doing sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 19:36 |
| Onebeer | adityag: rar and/or unrar | 19:36 |
| greenfishx3 | trashguy how do I find out the size of my 4GB folder then? again I dont want to use the gui :) | 19:36 |

| joanki123 | EvilDennisR, do you have any idea how i get it if i have gutsy? | 19:46 |
| ikonia | melter: right so - how are you identifying machines to the server for hostname setting - mac address or dns ? | 19:46 |
| melter | ikonia, dns | 19:46 |
| EvilDennisR | joanki123: No idea.. it might be in backports | 19:47 |

| gizmobay | I have a winmodem and I'm using the martian drivers. The dev is ttySM0 and I'm using it with efax. If I try to access the device as non-root, I get a permission denied so I do a chmod 666 and the device works as non-root. The only problem is that the chmod doesn't stick so if I get a fax I need to chmod again to gain access as non-root. Anyone know how to fix this? | 19:47 |
| Eoi | Hi guys. Got trouble with my sound card: It won't work anymore... | 19:47 |
| ASULutzy | jessica: Why are you root out of curiosity? It'd be much safer to use your regular login and use sudo | 19:48 |
| melter | ikonia, no clue, i just need to run a dhcp client, get the ip address and hostname | 19:48 |
| jessica | i did | 19:48 |
| jessica | sudo -i | 19:48 |
| jessica | :) | 19:48 |
| adityag | m-c: ok, let me check out | 19:48 |
| m-c | joanki123: Use the firefox in Synaptic repository, for the best ubuntu integration. | 19:48 |
| Eoi | I want to trouble shoot it but I don't know where to start. | 19:48 |
| ikonia | melter: ok - so to get a hostname you need to identify to the dhcp server - the most common method is mac addresses | 19:48 |
| joanki123 | m-c, it doesn't work | 19:48 |
| ikonia | melter: I assume you want a machine to maintain a specific hostname | 19:48 |
| ikonia | not assign a random hostname | 19:48 |
| ASULutzy | jessica: There's a dpkg command I think you can run to fix it, but I don't remember offhand, have you tried restarting? ;) | 19:48 |
| melter | ikonia, not really, it can change on reboot, that's ok | 19:49 |

| ubott2 | 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 » | 19:49 |
| ikonia | melter: so what is the hostname getting set to ? | 19:49 |

| turkmen | Enter text hehire... | 19:50 |
| turkmen | hi | 19:50 |
| ikonia | melter: do you get an ip address- just not hostname ? | 19:51 |
| melter | ikonia, yes, exactly | 19:51 |
| asmo[B] | VampBoy: both, but if no envy then obviously just the nvidia drivers | 19:51 |
| ikonia | melter: one moment please. | 19:51 |

| ubott2 | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 19:54 |
| asmo[B] | Does the "Remote Desktop Server" that comes with Ubuntu work with the Remote Desktop Client that comes with windowsXP? | 19:54 |
| trashguy | mumrah, and your user table inst populating | 19:54 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: no | 19:54 |
| asmo[B] | jameslr: recommendations? | 19:54 |
| th0r | asmo[B], rdesktop I think is installed by default and it does rdp for windows | 19:54 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: get a VNC client for the client windows machine | 19:54 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: TightVNC is goood | 19:55 |
| jameslr | good* | 19:55 |
| mumrah | trashguy: the db seems fine, just /home/vmail/domain.com/user is not getting created | 19:55 |
| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: You can use apt-get install tsclient to connect to other Windows RDP servers, but that might be the reverse of what you want | 19:55 |
| th0r | asmo[B], rdesktop is faster than vnc | 19:55 |
| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: Although if you want to go the other way, I find VNC to be very unnecessary, all you need to go the other way is ssh -CX | 19:55 |
| trashguy | mumrah, does dovecot have permission to wriote to that dir/ | 19:55 |
| jameslr | rdesktop is an RDP client | 19:55 |
| * m_newton is away: loligaging at the wee hours of nite; just to say hi to all and host my server. | 19:55 | |
| mumrah | trashguy: it should | 19:56 |
| * m_newton is back (gone 00:00:10) | 19:56 | |
| th0r | jameslr, my bad...you're right | 19:56 |
| mumrah | trashguy: it runs as user "vmail" and vmail can write just fine | 19:56 |
| asmo[B] | well I've been screwing around with SSH+VNC to get it to work with no luck, I've tried just the rdesktop and I've tried tightvnc and have not been able to get any of them to work :\ | 19:56 |
| pawan | hi | 19:56 |
| napauleon | anyone here using bluetooth devices under linux? | 19:56 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: Are you trying to use remote desktop capabilities of ubuntu? | 19:57 |
| asmo[B] | jameslr: I've tried them yes, and I've tried setting up tightvnc on both machines | 19:57 |
| fadai | how to install google earth when double clicking doesn't work? | 19:57 |
| jessica | has anyone else got any idea's for my apt problem | 19:57 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: can you open a VNC session to localhost:5901 (screen :1)? | 19:58 |
| mumrah | trashguy: looks like postfix cannot write to the mail home | 19:58 |
| mumrah | trashguy: could that be a problem? | 19:58 |
| asmo[B] | jameslr: it disconnected on me | 19:58 |
| Jane_ | I have a Canon Lide 20 scanner. When I use xscan it'll only scan a certain a certain area of the scanner (202*150). How do I adjust this so I can scan 4*6 pictures? | 19:58 |

| asmo[B] | jameslr: yes I went through all the steps that I could, I tried following a few tutorials to no avail | 19:59 |
| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: Are you sure you need VNC? I used to have a VNC server setup on my home machine, but honestly ssh -CX seems to do everything I need it to | 19:59 |
| === Bodsda|AFK is now known as Bodsda | ||
| eftex | joanki123: i just updated from gutsy to hardy it was easy via the updater | 19:59 |

| joanki123 | eftex, well, ican't even get darned firefox 3.0 installed on gutsy, but with hardy it's just a matter of update so i assume it is much more current | 19:59 |
| kaushal__ | yes | 19:59 |
| joanki123 | eftex, how do i do that? | 19:59 |
| Frogzoo | joanki123: hardy is later, so... | 19:59 |
| eftex | joanki123: on hardy firefox3 is standart | 19:59 |
| asmo[B] | ASULutzy: when I do ssh -CX nothing happens... gives me a list of ssh commands | 20:00 |

| jameslr | asmo[B]: did you use the GUI to enable the VNC server? | 20:00 |
| kaushal__ | yes i do | 20:00 |
| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: You need to install an ssh server on the server machine. Then from the client you would do ssh -CX the.ip.address.ofserver | 20:00 |

| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: If you are doing windows to ubuntu I would recommend just setting up an ssh server on the ubuntu machine. And I think you can use ssh -CX to forward the output of whatever app y ou want | 20:03 |

| greenfishx3 | anyone know why when I try to cp -r /media/cdrom0 to my home folder it wont copy and the file is 4k ? | 20:03 |

| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: You didn't setup the server correctly :) | 20:05 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: sounds like it's firewalled. | 20:05 |
| jameslr | asmo[B]: after you get back send me a pastebin of sudo iptables -L | 20:05 |
| asmo[B] | ASULutzy: that's what I'm assuming, must have missed something somewhere | 20:05 |
| melter | ikonia, i only have a small number of ips allocated to me, so when i run servers just for my own testing, i just use dynamic ips, although i'm having the same issue with the desktop | 20:05 |

| VampBoy | jack: ok, lemme look in my xorg | 20:05 |

| VampBoy | jack: can I just add more modes to that line? | 20:07 |
| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: DMZ means, hey, all traffic that isn't set to go to a specific machine go here. You can't have 2 machines setup to do that? | 20:07 |

| freda | (it seems impossible to boot from the ubuntu live cd- my computer, even when i tell it to boot from cd, doesnt accept it) | 21:31 |
| mercutio22 | RainCT: cannot comply | 21:31 |
| arooni | ASULutzy, you're right@! | 21:32 |
| RainCT | mercutio22: strange... and if you start it (sudo /etc/init.d/g15daemon start) and then try to remove it? | 21:32 |
| ASULutzy | arooni: go me ;) | 21:32 |
| mercutio22 | RainCT: LEMME SEE | 21:32 |
| greenfishx3 | i accidently typed sudo mv blalalal but I forgot to tell where, where are my files now? | 21:32 |

| Frijolie | anybody know of an editor to create your own .pdf forms? pdfEditor doesn't work, evince doesn't support forms, xpdf is just a viewer | 21:32 |
| RainCT | EverettGM1819: I'm not sure what you mean.. | 21:33 |
| unop | greenfishx3, is that the exact command you used? sudo mv blalalal | 21:33 |
| cherwin | greenfishx3: You'll get an error message | 21:33 |
| Packman_e | hello all | 21:33 |
| greenfishx3 | no error message | 21:33 |
| greenfishx3 | I did sudo mv John Williams <-- thats all | 21:34 |
| EverettGM1819 | RainCT: it doesnt have the checkboxes to select what you want to add, it just has an add button and stuff, and when i click add, it pops up the directory and i really dont kno what a program is on linux | 21:34 |
| mercutio22 | RainCT: I am still getting the same error: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 21:34 |
| RainCT | mercutio22: and it started correctly? | 21:34 |
| greenfishx3 | cherwin: , unop I did sudo mv John Williams <-- thats all and the original folder is now empty | 21:34 |
| cherwin | greenfishx3: You renamed the file "John" to "Williams". Or if you have a directory Williams, you've moved it to that directory. | 21:34 |
| Stormx2 | greenfishx3, you moved a file called "John" to "Williams" | 21:34 |
| RainCT | EverettGM1819: ah. the executables are in /usr/bin (or /usr/games for games) | 21:34 |
| unop | greenfishx3, well, that would have copied a file named John to a new file named Williams -- but it wouldn't have done anything to a file named "John Williams" | 21:35 |
| Packman_e | does anyone here use gmail? | 21:35 |
| JASONCO | bogey-, i created the directory -- it doesnt throw the error now - but it still wont let me access windows shares --- and konqueror will -- so i know the smbfs is workin | 21:35 |
| Stormx2 | Packman_e, aye. | 21:35 |
| EverettGM1819 | RainCT: oh ok thanx i think i will experiment with it, couldnt hurt much | 21:35 |

| Packman_e | nice, i just started using it and i find it a bit annoying that if you are reading a message and then delete it, it kicks you back to the inbox rather than move you onto the next message. does anyone know how to go about changing this please? | 21:37 |
| mercutio22 | RainCT: ok.. thanx. I'll read that | 21:37 |
| unop | greenfishx3, find ~ -iname "*john*" -o -iname "*williams*" | 21:37 |
| RainCT | mercutio22: it doesn't say how to fix it though.. best would be to ask in #ubuntu-motu | 21:37 |
| WhoaTotalWipeout | Packman_e: That's gmail support, not ubuntu support :P | 21:37 |
| unop | greenfishx3, or use the gnome-search-tool | 21:38 |
| WhoaTotalWipeout | Packman_e: but in either case, you can go through the settings menu in gmail. | 21:38 |
| mercutio22 | RainCT: ok, wilco | 21:38 |

| carrera | can someone help me get VirtualBox please? Sun wouldn't let me d/l | 21:40 |
| unop | tim2, echo "tet" >> file | 21:40 |
| AskHL | Makuseru, you have to install the plugin, not just the runtime environment | 21:40 |
| WhoaTotalWipeout | Packman_e: I can suggest for you to use IMAP in evolution to get your gmail. And Evolution is an open source alternative, not a clone ;) | 21:41 |
| Makuseru | AskHL: i belive i had that installed to, let me check | 21:41 |
| AskHL | e.e. sun-java6-plugin or similar, Makuseru | 21:41 |
| WhoaTotalWipeout | carrera: Sure, give me a sec | 21:41 |
| AskHL | (i.e.) | 21:41 |
| RainCT | Makuseru: do you have package sun-java6-plugin? | 21:41 |
| carrera | WhoaTotalWipeout, Thanks dude... You're Awesome!!! | 21:41 |

| Makuseru | RainCT: AskHL: yes, its installed | 21:42 |
| Packman_e | WhoaTotalWipeout, yeah sorry, thats what i meant to say :-) | 21:42 |
| Stormx2 | malex, you really think I'd know that? | 21:42 |
| carrera | WhoaTotalWipeout, as soon as Sun bought MySQL they banned Iran | 21:42 |
| malex | Stormx2: sorry, i was going to reply to your note about the 386 kernel and accidentally asked the above :) | 21:42 |
| Stormx2 | Google it ;_; | 21:42 |
| Stormx2 | Oh heh | 21:42 |
| carrera | WhoaTotalWipeout, now Sun did the same with VirtualBox | 21:42 |
| tim2 | so sudo echo deb http://repository.(ie) >> /etc/apt/sources.list | 21:42 |
| EverettGM1819 | google rox | 21:42 |
| Packman_e | WhoaTotalWipeout, is the imap support/speed good with google and evolution? | 21:42 |
| EverettGM1819 | has anyone read about that rumor of google making a linux os distribution? | 21:43 |
| WhoaTotalWipeout | Packman_e: IMAP is to POP as jets are to cars. | 21:43 |
| AskHL | Makuseru, hmm, then I don't really know. You may be able to find some information in the firefox settings | 21:43 |
| unop | tim2, no, that woudlnt work .. echo deb http://repository.(ie) | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list | 21:43 |
| carrera | WhoaTotalWipeout, how long will u be? going to the kitchen to grab some fruit | 21:43 |

| linuxpwns | ASUlutzy: Really? i never knew that. | 22:09 |
| FlyingWV | giacomo_carissim, I think icons are placed in /usr/share/icons | 22:10 |
| joaopinto | IntoxikCat, just: mount /dev/dvd /media/cdrom0 | 22:10 |
| joaopinto | without all those options, and pastebin the result | 22:10 |

| joaopinto | mryanbrown, sudo is required, since you don't own it | 22:13 |
| FlyingWV | giacomo_carissim, to install the icons, browse to the folder where the main folder is located, then drag and drop it onto the themes tab under pref/appearance, it should install it under custom | 22:14 |
| ASULutzy | mryanbrown: Yea, you need to be root to do it (to be fair it's always safer to try things not as root, and if it doesn't work because you need higher privileges, then rock the root ;)) | 22:14 |

Not a big deal but it confuses my wife. lol | 22:39 |

| row | Anyone know if ICH8R onboard raid will work on the hardy heron dvds (running off the kbuntu 32bit) need to access a partition in the raid set up | 22:39 |
| joaopinto | taes81, you clearly are new to linux, installing the Nvidia's driver manually may get you into troubles on the next kernel upgrade | 22:39 |
| bullzeye95 | hey guys. I have a question. I had installed Ubuntu on my computer, and then broke it... I also managed to break GRUB. So, I installed Ubuntu again onto another partition, while leaving the old, broken one. This also fixed my GRUB or installed it again. If I were to delete my broken partition of Ubuntu, would I have any issues with my current GRUB? | 22:39 |

| Marce_ | Hello, my apache stopped working instantaneously, any help over here? | 22:43 |
| joaopinto | Marce_, have you checked the logs ? | 22:43 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, yep, nothing strange | 22:43 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, apache.log returns this | 22:44 |
| joaopinto | what happens when you start it ? | 22:44 |
| Slart | frozenknight: found it? | 22:44 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, it starts well, just i can't see the webpages | 22:44 |
| frozenknight | ya | 22:44 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, all pages loads in blank | 22:45 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, tried restarting apache and restarting the system, nothing happens | 22:45 |
| joaopinto | Marce_, does the request get logged into access.log ? | 22:45 |
| Marce_ | joapinto, what should i get into access.log? | 22:45 |
| frozenknight | ok got it working now thanks | 22:45 |
| joaopinto | Marce_, your page requests | 22:45 |
| joaopinto | did you checked error_log ? | 22:46 |
| chao1 | usplash anyone | 22:46 |
| robuntu | i just recently installed my graphics drivers, and now my log in screen is 640x 512ish and it cuts off 3/4 of the screen. | 22:46 |

| asmodai[B] | what is the name of the default package installed for remote desktop? is the package just called rdesktop ? | 22:46 |

| Rincewynde | Hi all, would someone be so kind as to help me configure Ubuntu to output sound via Coax out? This works in XP fine, but I select "ALC880 Digital" in sound preferences, and test it, and there's no output. I've tried the #ALSA channel, and had a good look around the forum but am at a loss. any help would be greatly appreciated | 22:47 |
| asmodai[B] | and with rdesktop do I need any other packages to be able to connect with the rdp that comes with XP? | 22:47 |
| frozenknight | I deleted all the keys so that it matched my other hd and it started working like before | 22:47 |
| chao1 | Can anyone tell me how to get my usplash to show | 22:47 |
| Slart | frozenknight: ah. nice | 22:48 |
| robuntu | anyone? | 22:48 |
| cara | ASULutzy: it didn't work | 22:48 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, error.log doesn't show me anything | 22:49 |

| sebablu1 | Hi, I am getting the following error when executing a program: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_thread-gcc41-mt-1_34_1.so.1.34.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ... I think I am missing this library ... anyone knows how to get it installed? | 22:49 |
| joaopinto | Marce_, I have no further options, never had issues not logged into error log | 22:49 |
| Slart | frozenknight: when you specify a mountpoint in the "properties"-thingy for a drive you only decide what the last part of the mountpoint should be.. so if you write "mybackupdrive" for mountpoint it will be mounted in /media/mybackupdrive... you can't change the first part using that settings window | 22:49 |
| joaopinto | sebablu1, what program is it and how did you install it ? | 22:49 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, it seems that the dns doesn't works, thank you for your time | 22:50 |
| sebablu1 | it is a robot control engine ... running though an sh script | 22:50 |
| joaopinto | Marce_, you dont need dns to browse local pages, your server host should be on /etc/hosts | 22:50 |
| ASULutzy | cara: Hmmm? | 22:50 |
| arooni-mobile | how big should my / partition be on my new hard drive? currently its set at 18.63GB ... and i'm using 10.42GB.... (running ubuntu hardy) | 22:50 |
| ASULutzy | cara: What didn't work? | 22:50 |
| joaopinto | I mean, I was assuming you were browsing locally | 22:50 |
| ASULutzy | arooni-mobile: Personal preference, no one can tell you how much space to devote to your Ubuntu install. | 22:50 |
| robuntu | i just recently installed my graphics drivers, and now my log in screen is 640x 512ish and it cuts off 3/4 of the screen. | 22:50 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: if you have /home on another partition you only need about 10-15 | 22:51 |
| Slart | GB | 22:51 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, i have a web server in my intranet that i work, i just see the pages by internet trough the .com domain | 22:51 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: but it's really up to how you use your computer | 22:51 |
| joaopinto | sebablu1, it depends on a specific library, libboost, you can install the one available for ubuntu, but it may not be compatible with the one used to link that app | 22:51 |
| frozenknight | Slart, my original goal was to attempt to give the HD a permanent mount point so that i could link firefox and thunderbird to my windows firefox and thunderbird so that any bookmarks or e-mails i have are in the same spot | 22:51 |
| joaopinto | Marce_, ok :) | 22:51 |
| Marce_ | joaopinto, thank u :> | 22:52 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, so 20gb is more than enough? | 22:52 |
| Slart | frozenknight: hmm.. don't really think you can do that.. but I'm not sure | 22:52 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: for regular use, yes | 22:52 |
| robuntu | anyone? | 22:52 |
| sebablu1 | thanks joaopinto, I can not find it from the program installer ... where should I look for please? | 22:52 |
| joaopinto | sebablu1, doesn't that soft come with the source ? | 22:52 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, would there ever need to be more? | 22:53 |
| joaopinto | It would be better to built it from source | 22:53 |
| sebablu1 | yes it does | 22:53 |
| ASULutzy | cara: You alive out there? | 22:53 |
| eric_ | Does this sound possible to anyone: I upgraded my kernel with virtualbox ose stuff and now my system is acting all whacked, compiz stopped working and my sound no longer works, I haven't installed anything else recently | 22:53 |
| joaopinto | so you should compile | 22:53 |
| joaopinto | !compile | sebablu1 | 22:53 |
| ubott2 | sebablu1: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 22:53 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, what should i format the root partition to? ext3? | 22:53 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: sure, if you install lots of software... download lots of source code etc you'll eventually fill that partitin | 22:53 |
| sebablu1 | all right, will do, thanks a lot | 22:53 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, i guess i can always resize later right? | 22:53 |
| ASULutzy | arooni-mobile: Yes, ext3 | 22:53 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: ext3 is the safe middleroad when it comes to file systems.. it's nice enough | 22:54 |
| robuntu | i just recently installed my graphics drivers, and now my log in screen is 640x 512ish and it cuts off 3/4 of the screen. | 22:54 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, what about primary or logical parittion? | 22:54 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: go with primary if you can | 22:54 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, do i want to check round to cylinders? | 22:54 |
| eric_ | is it possible to go back to my previous kernel image before virtualbox patched it with the ose stuff? | 22:54 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: you can only have 4 primary partitions on a hard drive | 22:54 |
| linuxpower1 | veronica, you here? | 22:54 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: as you wish.. doesn't really make a big difference | 22:54 |
| ASULutzy | eric_: Huh? What exactly do you mean | 22:55 |
| eric_ | Does this sound possible to anyone: I upgraded my kernel with virtualbox ose stuff and now my system is acting all whacked, compiz stopped working and my sound no longer works, I haven't installed anything else recently | 22:55 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, what is reiserfs? | 22:55 |
| frozenknight | Slart, I've managed to get thunderbird to access my E-mail in windows as though it's it's own by using "thunderbird -profilemanager" | 22:55 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: another file system.. good with many small files | 22:55 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, so /home partitions should be the same (primary + ext3)? | 22:55 |
| microwaver | what's a command to reset the layout ? | 22:55 |
| eric_ | i didn't want to go with vmware, after i installed virutalbox it told me i needed to add ose stuff, now i have a whole bunch of problems | 22:55 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: if you have to ask that question here then yes.. use ext3 for everything =) | 22:55 |
| ASULutzy | eric_: As in you did sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-modules-2.whatever kernel you have? | 22:56 |
| car1 | ASULutzy: yeah it didn't work | 22:56 |
| === car1 is now known as cara | ||
| arooni-mobile | Slart, got it; thanks! | 22:56 |
| eric_ | i did whatever command it asked me to do, but i think it was that | 22:56 |
| eric_ | i beleive it said to use generic actually | 22:56 |
| cara | I'm getting the same thing I've been getting all day | 22:56 |
| Slart | frozenknight: ah.. sweet.. haven't even thought about it.. good to knoe | 22:56 |
| joaopinto | eric_, and you added your user to the vbox group ? | 22:56 |
| ASULutzy | cara: You sure you did it right? | 22:56 |
| eric_ | would that affect sound? | 22:56 |
| ASULutzy | cara: lol, what happened after you told ndisgtk to use the .inf file? | 22:56 |
| ASULutzy | eric_: I can't think of how installing virtualbox could hose your system | 22:57 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, how big should my swap partition be? (i have 2gb of ram right now; but may add a gig or two in the future ) ...... | 22:57 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: laptop? | 22:57 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, desktop | 22:57 |
| joaopinto | eric_, are we talking about using virtualbox, or a sound issue ? | 22:57 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, its a 300gb drive | 22:57 |
| eric_ | i don't care about sing Virtualbox at this point | 22:57 |
| frozenknight | Slart, ya that is why i'm trying to get a perm mount point so that i can have FireFox and Thunderbird both act that way at startup | 22:57 |
| eric_ | i just want my system to work | 22:57 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: I would go with 2GB of swap.. there's an old rule that says to use 2xRAM for swap.. but it's old.. very old | 22:57 |
| OB1FoShoB | eric_: try xvm version | 22:57 |
| eric_ | compiz gave me the white screen of death no matter how many times i reinstalled | 22:57 |
| cara | I clicked on the button to setup the network, everything was grayed out, even the Unlock button, also, the device didn't show up in the NetworkManager. | 22:57 |
| joaopinto | eric_, virtualbox is not related to your sound issue | 22:57 |
| microwaver | what's a command to reset the layout ? gnome / xfce / kde i mean | 22:57 |
| cara | This is the same thing I"ve been getting all day | 22:58 |
| eric_ | how do i diagnose the sound issue first and foremost | 22:58 |
| joaopinto | !resetapplets | microwaver | 22:58 |
| ubott2 | Factoid resetapplets not found | 22:58 |
| Slart | arooni-mobile: it's different if you're using a laptop where the swap will be used to store the contents of the memory when hibernating.. then you have to have at least as much swap as ram | 22:58 |
| eric_ | the volume button says no device, but device manager lists it (internal intel hd audio (actual sigmatel i believe) on a dell laptop | 22:58 |
| arooni-mobile | Slart, i guess i can always resize swap later | 22:58 |
| NW2190 | hey, does anyone know how to install/set-up a logitech usb microphone? | 22:58 |
| Slart | !swap | 22:58 |
| ubott2 | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 22:58 |
| eric_ | are you guys sure that it didn't modify the kernel and that is why all this stuff started to happen? | 22:58 |
| microwaver | joaopinto, my dear chairman, it isn't seem to be working :p | 22:59 |
| Slart | check that link, arooni-mobile | 22:59 |
| ASULutzy | cara: Did you actually do what I said? | 22:59 |
| ASULutzy | cara: Installing ndisgtk and the the windows driver (the .inf file) | 22:59 |
| cara | yes yes | 22:59 |
| cara | pointed it to the inf file | 22:59 |
| cara | the one you told me to get | 22:59 |
| ASULutzy | !who | 22:59 |
| ubott2 | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 22:59 |
| joaopinto | eric_, it just added new kernel modules, it is not expected to affect other modules, if you do believe it did, just revert the change and remove the vbox modules | 22:59 |
| cara | lol sorry ASULutzy | 22:59 |
| eric_ | how to do that exactly? | 23:00 |
| ASULutzy | cara: So you pointed it to the .inf file, what does iwconfig say now? | 23:00 |
| * cara will prefix comments with ASULutzy | 23:00 | |
| cara | ASULutzy: it shows my device but nothing can be done with it | 23:00 |
| eric_ | i want to go back before the vbox changes first before i diagnose everything else | 23:00 |
| cara | ASULutzy: I even tried manually pointing it an access point and it didn't work | 23:00 |
| joaopinto | eric_, go to the package manager, and remove all the virtualbox* packages | 23:00 |

| frozenknight | another question, the tempature for my area is always off by a lot,right now it's in the mis 80's outside and the temp shows that it's 51.8 | 23:01 |
| ASULutzy | cara: So does it see any access points? Have you tried using iwconfig to manually hook it up to an AP? (and is the AP using WPA-PSK or anything like that?) | 23:01 |
| eric_ | i already did that | 23:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ Were you trying to install a version other than the one available in our repos | 23:01 |
| arooni-mobile | i have two 300 GB seagate drives.... drive a is currently being used and has /root/ and /home/ on it... and is named /sda/ but is currently dying... drive b is not being used. what i want to do is insert drive b and duplicate drive a to drive b. then i want to start booting from drive b so i can rma drive a. both drives are now in my system and i've formatted drive b with 3 partitions (sdb1 for /root @ 20gb, sdb2 for /hom | 23:01 |
| arooni-mobile | e @ 264GB, and sdb3 for linux-swap). what should i do now? | 23:01 |
| cara | ASULutzy: yes lol (I just said that) | 23:01 |
| cara | ASULutzy: dmesg reports that the link is down for some odd reason | 23:01 |
| arooni-mobile | i.e. how should i move the data? | 23:02 |
| ASULutzy | cara: I thought you meant you manually pointed it to an AP using network manager, which isn't quite as trustworthy as using iwconfig in the command line | 23:02 |
| eric_ | i beleive i used apt-get install virutalbox, ran it, it told me to run a command to patch the kernel | 23:02 |
| eric_ | i did what ti told me | 23:02 |
| cara | ASULutzy: I don't think its related to the ssb thing because my driver is the tg3 driver | 23:02 |
| eric_ | then when after my next reboot, compiz stopped working (white screen) and audio no longer works | 23:02 |
| eric_ | since its too seemingly unrelated issues out of the blue, i assume it has to do with virtualbox | 23:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ Did you change any sources before the apt-get | 23:02 |
| joaopinto | eric_, have you installed virtualbox from the repositories, or from the VB site ? | 23:02 |
| eric_ | for the repos | 23:02 |
| eric_ | *from the repos | 23:02 |
| eric_ | i have 3rd party sources, yes | 23:03 |
| eric_ | but they are application specific | 23:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ doesnt matter... | 23:03 |

| eric_ | so is that neccesarily what boinked me here? | 23:07 |
| eric_ | and if so, what should i do now | 23:07 |
| eric_ | or should I just reinstall? | 23:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ It may nave been what got you... I have no way of knowing.. I would remove # the gutsy repo update, upgrade and hope for the best | 23:08 |
| eric_ | okay i will try that and come back in a few | 23:08 |
| phreaker-RoT | hello! | 23:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ You know a single command in a terminal will backup everything for you.. | 23:08 |
| eric_ | but if i remove the repos for gutsy then it only see the hardy and replaces them? | 23:08 |
| eric_ | back everythign up in terms of what | 23:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ yes | 23:08 |
| eric_ | i can just ghost... | 23:09 |
| eric_ | or can't i just copy my ~ dir | 23:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eric_ If you after you reinstall.. you can doa system backup very easily | 23:09 |
| eric_ | or is there other stuff i should back up, i don't want to save my apt-get install list because i probably have the wrong stuff installed because of it, no? | 23:09 |

| Sneedly | hello, I have a drawing tablet i bought off of woot the other week and i was hoping there was a way to use it, with out installing windows | 23:18 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, bigger partitions in both cases | 23:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arooni read that page I linked or use part image | 23:18 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, whats easier? i'm a linux noob | 23:19 |
| joaopinto | dd will copy unused areas, it will take longer than partimage | 23:19 |
| arooni | so sounds like partimage is better? | 23:19 |
| joaopinto | partimage is easier, it provides a text interface | 23:19 |

| sirelfman | amenado-> I managed (i think) to at least the linux box in the right workgroup by editing smb.conf. I can see the windows network, and the workgroup MSHOME, but when I click on MSHOME, nothing shows up in the window | 23:23 |
| arooni | The option "bs=4k" is used to specify the block size used in the copy. The default for the dd command is 512 bytes: use of this small block size can result in significantly slower copying. However, the tradeoff with larger block sizes is that when an error is encountered, the remainder of the block is filled with zero-bytes. | 23:23 |
| arooni | what size block size should i use? | 23:23 |

| trashguy | victor__, its like short not much of what id expect ina normal xorg.conf | 23:34 |
| victor__ | oh | 23:34 |
| gnull0 | victor__: because I don't know that will work as reliably as using a for loop will work. Plus on commands such as mv and cp you'd end up with all the files listed thrown together into a large blob (whatever you list as the target); which is not what I'd want. | 23:34 |

| mroc | hi. i changed my login password after entering the key for an encrypted network. now i'm prompted to unlock the keyring every time. how do i fix this? | 23:50 |
| rusod | in the notebook keyboard is all right | 23:51 |
| ShinjinAkage | RoinCT: They are still the same. | 23:51 |
| ShinjinAkage | RoinCT; Just to make sure I was to type "compiz --replace" | 23:51 |
| philsf | unop: it was them that told me to use LC_* | 23:52 |
| rusod | but in my logitech coordless ex100 keyboard not | 23:52 |
| philsf | unop: btw, dpkg-reconfigure locales only sets the whole LC_* bunch to the desired locale, | 23:52 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage what are you actually trying to do? are you saying the basic compiz settings dont work? | 23:52 |
| demism | how can I find out where and what it is a package installs and has? | 23:52 |
| === demism is now known as DemisM | ||
| rusod | demism: apt-file | 23:53 |
| unop | philsf, ok, LC_* aside, does your keyboard have the ability to type in the c-cedilla character without '+ c' i.e. a dedicated key ? | 23:53 |
| sun01tech | my firefox version says 3.0b5 is that the latest version...add/remove already has it checked | 23:53 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: I'm trying to get some desktop effects to make it look better. The default ones wouldn't load so I tried to download some from add and remove programs. | 23:53 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | rusod - ubuntu recognized the logitech wireless keyboard without you doing anything else (no drivers to install)? | 23:53 |
| philsf | unop: my desktop has a localized keyboard. my laptop doesn't | 23:53 |
| OB1FoShoB | sub01tech: 3.0 is final on hardy | 23:54 |
| philsf | unop: it's the laptop that's giving me the pita in this case | 23:54 |
| sun01tech | OB1FoShoB: i already have hardy i had the beta that came with it...do i uninstall it and reinstall? | 23:54 |
| RainCT | ShinjinAkage: and if you right click on the desktop, change background and go to the tab 'desktop effects', are they enable? | 23:54 |
| rusod | ubuntu recognized a generic keyboard | 23:54 |
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: sudo apt-get upgrade | 23:54 |
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: its final in Hardy | 23:55 |
| === ecanto is now known as edson | ||
| unop | philsf, and editing gtk.immodules does nothing constructive? | 23:55 |
| OB1FoShoB | sun01tech: sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade | 23:55 |
| === edson is now known as ecanto | ||
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: (hardy)gnomefreak@Development:~$ policy firefox-3.0 3.0+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1 | 23:55 |
| philsf | unop: If I ignore gtk's devels recomendations, and change the gtk immmodules config, I still don't get a coherent locale configuration (for example, wish/tk apps still print ć) | 23:55 |
| rusod | seems that philsf have a similar problem | 23:55 |
| ShinjinAkage | RoinCT: No, they won't enable. That's why I was looking for some in the add and remove programs thing. Is there not a set of separate ones I can download if those don't work. | 23:56 |
| OB1FoShoB | sun01tech: included in the repositories | 23:56 |
| philsf | rusod: nice to hear. more ppl looking, easier to find a solution | 23:56 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage you will need to get the default ones to work first, then after the compiz engine is configured you can then get the advanced desktop manager and use the additional things like cube, and scale ect. | 23:56 |
| RainCT | ShinjinAkage: ah. no. Ubuntu comes with all plugins (from the repos) by default, most of them are just disabled. but as koshari says, you first need to get compiz itself running | 23:57 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: How do I get the default ones to work? | 23:57 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage lets get abck to basics, what video chip do you have and have you got 3d working, to test this try running glxgears. | 23:57 |
| philsf | unop: I guess I could try to do this for every major lib... or I could try to set LC_* vars ;) | 23:57 |
| philsf | unop: unfortunately it's not an easy thing to google for | 23:57 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: It's running fine. | 23:57 |
| philsf | unop: do you at least know which of them *should* do what I want? | 23:58 |
| PaulM | silly question here: I know I can specify filenames with spaces using quotes or \ to escape the character, but I'm not sure how I copy with wildcards. Specifically, I want to do something along the lines of: cp -R * /media/endpoint | 23:58 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage ok so your getting good fps with glxgears? | 23:58 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: Yeah, it's running fine. | 23:58 |
| unop | philsf, well that's expected gtk.immodules affects just gnome/gtk apps -- what i would recommend you do is install the portuguese locales and set the LANG and LC_* variables in your ~/.profile -- the variables you need to change are defined here - http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xbd/envvar.html | 23:59 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: No pauses or anything like that. | 23:59 |
| koshari | so go to system > pref > appearance and click on the effects tab | 23:59 |
| sun01tech | gnomefreak: i did that but it says 0 upgrade and 0 for the rest | 23:59 |
| ShinjinAkage | Koshari: It's already open. | 23:59 |
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: apt-cache policy firefox-3.0 what version does that give you (only the version) | 23:59 |
