| MonkeysUncle | Jack_Sparrow: so Ubuntu does not love Windows? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Jetts | wondering if anyone has some experience with Grub, I'm having a very strange problem, just re-installed a system (due to a dead hard drive), and for some reason I'm getting suck at "GRUB loading, please wait..." with no error messages | 00:00 |
| Skyrail | Jack_Sparrow: okay, I'll write that down and look into it :) | 00:00 |
| Jetts | I've tried re-installing grub about 10 times, and even double checking boot order and the bootable flags on the partitions | 00:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jetts Are you mixing ide and sata drives | 00:01 |
| _xyz | can you run WINE alongside Cedega without problems? | 00:01 |
| Skyrail | Lets hope I can get this sorted, be back later, hopefully | 00:01 |
| Jetts | Jack_Sparrow yes, I have 4 sata drives in the box and 1 IDE with the IDE containing my root partition - the sata drives are set up in LVM for data storage | 00:01 |
| askand | What could be wrong if I cant satisfy Build-dependencies with apt-get? | 00:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jetts There is alot of info on how that can cause problems | 00:02 |
| Seveas | Jetts, and the bios is configured to boot from the ide one? | 00:02 |
| Jetts | Seveas: yes, nothing has changed - I was using an IDE drive before without problems | 00:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | askand What changes have you made to sources? and what exactly are you trying to install | 00:02 |
| Seveas | Jack_Sparrow, well, if it boots from the ide disk, and / lives there that shouldn't give any problems afaik | 00:02 |
| presly | hola | 00:03 |
| Seveas | Jetts, is it hard to disconnect the sata disks for a test? if not, can you try that? | 00:03 |
| owner | HEY GUYS I AM DOING A NET INSTALL OF UBUNTU GOT TO THE PART WHERE I SPECIFY A MIRROR SITE AAND I AM KINDA STUCK THERE BAD MIRROR SITE ANY HELP | 00:03 |

| Jetts | Seveas: I'll take a look, just have to label the cables - will let you know though, thanks | 00:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | askand and what changes have you made to sources | 00:04 |
| Flannel | !mirrors | owner | 00:04 |

| owner | SORRY THE INSTLALLER IS ASKING FOR THIS WHAT DO I PUT IN THEN | 00:05 |
| owner | OK | 00:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | owner STOP using CAPS | 00:05 |
| owner | sorry | 00:05 |
| fad | Hello - I downloaded ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386 and tried to install it but after the initial screen where I select my language and the ubuntu graphic it kicks me to a (initramfs) and I can't seem to make it past... | 00:06 |
| askand | Jack_Sparrow: You mean softwaresources? I have added som PPA:s but none that contains rhythmbox | 00:06 |
| Jetts | Seveas okay now I'm getting Error 21: Selected disk does not exist, which makes sense because when I installed grub there were other disks in the system - any suggestions on how I can get the system running with the sata drives plugged in? | 00:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | askand Pastebin your sources list. | 00:07 |

| Jetts | Seveas how will re-installing grub after I plug it all back in cause a problem, won't I end up with the same freezing problem? | 00:07 |

| Jack_Sparrow | bbl personal business | 00:10 |
| Skyrail | So, after doing what you said Jack_Sparrow fdisk shows my drives. However it seems slightly suspicious and I believe you may be right Seveas about broken/missing drivers for it | 00:11 |
| Seveas | Skyrail, what did Jack_Sparrow say? | 00:11 |
| Skyrail | F6 during bootup, remove quiet + splash and put all_generic_ide before the -- | 00:11 |
| Drk_Guy | Hi guys! | 00:12 |
| Skyrail | It worked but I missed loads of it as it goes fast, does it save a log anywhere of it? | 00:12 |
| Drk_Guy | How can i compile some code for windows inside linux? | 00:12 |
| Drk_Guy | It won't use any windows API | 00:12 |
| Drk_Guy | I just need to create an EXE out of it | 00:12 |
| Seveas | Skyrail, interesting. In that case I'm interested in the output of dmesg now and the output of dmesg after a reboot without doing that. Maybe we can isolate the problem | 00:12 |
| Seveas | !enter | Drk_Guy | 00:12 |
| ubottu | Drk_Guy: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 00:12 |
| Drk_Guy | Sorry Seveas | 00:13 |
| Flannel | Drk_Guy: MingW/Msys and gcc | 00:13 |
| Seveas | Drk_Guy, and you're looking for mingw. | 00:13 |
| AlexJP | hello, i am having trouble with a network interface (eth0) it ha been working, and suddenly disappeared from ifconfig and lshw -C network. Any ideas? | 00:13 |
| Drk_Guy | Flannel, Compiling inside wine? | 00:13 |
| Drk_Guy | XD | 00:13 |
| Flannel | Drk_Guy: no | 00:13 |
| Drk_Guy | Flannel, sudo apt-get install mingw? | 00:13 |

| famelix | Hello everyone! | 00:13 |
| linduxed | is there anyone who knows how to get a akm02se keyboard running? | 00:13 |
| Flannel | Drk_Guy: come to #ubuntu-offtopic, and stop using the ente rkey as punctuation | 00:14 |
| aceer | hey everyone | 00:15 |
| Skyrail | Seveas: okay, I've piped it to a file, I'll upload the file and I'll restart and do the same thing :) | 00:15 |
| famelix | I just installed Famelix on my IBM Thinkpad and would really like some help with it.. does anyone have experience with this distro | 00:15 |
| === \\dan\\_ is now known as \\dan\\ | ||
| sohocoke | what should i look at if an entry in /etc/cron.d doesn't get run? | 00:15 |
| famelix | Theres a few problems Im having, and have a few general questions.. anyone? | 00:15 |
| Seveas | famelix, this is ubuntu support, not famelix support | 00:16 |
| goodseed | hi | 00:16 |
| aceer | I'll throw my question out there - My laptop motherboard died, kept the hd, reinstalled ubuntu on new computer, was wondering if there was a easy way to copy over all my settings | 00:16 |
| user__ | hi, question, can Ubuntu be used to work on an Pentium Four 64 mb ram computer? Hardy Heron ? | 00:16 |
| notwist | user__: you should use xubuntu | 00:16 |
| notwist | user__: uses less cpu and memory | 00:17 |
| Seveas | user__, pentium 4 with 64mb? that's a weird configuration... | 00:17 |
| jeimuzu | this a help room for ubuntu? | 00:17 |
| Seveas | jeimuzu, yes :) | 00:17 |
| Jetts | Seveas okay I plugged it all back in, re-installed grub, and the important part of the menu.lst is root (hd4,0), but now I'm getting the same problem I was before... at least now I know its the sata drives that are messing it up... wonder if I switch to lilo if I'll have the same problem | 00:17 |
| nickrud | aceer, all of your personal settings are in the /home/<username> directory in the files and directories that begin with a period. Copy those over | 00:17 |
| AlexJP | anyone know why my ethernet device would stop working? | 00:18 |
| user__ | ok thanks | 00:18 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, You need to be a bit more specific. | 00:18 |
| jeimuzu | k why don't i have themes under prefrences | 00:18 |
| aceer | nickrud - just copy over the new /home/username dir? would that copy over my firefox settings and all that? | 00:18 |
| Seveas | Jetts, (hd4,0) seems wrong to me, try changing that to (hd0,0) | 00:18 |
| notwist | jeimuzu: its called "appearance" i think | 00:19 |
| Seveas | Jetts, and yeah, lilo is all in the MBR and doesn't need to load parts of itself from other places on the disk, making it more likely to succees | 00:19 |
| Ahadiel | jeimuzu, System => Preferences => Appearance | 00:19 |
| nickrud | aceer, yes, along with any data you saved for yourself | 00:19 |
| jeimuzu | k tghanks | 00:19 |
| jeimuzu | so you download new themes to that folder? | 00:20 |
| aceer | nickrud - ok thanks, all the other files and folders are they worth keeping, or are they all just duplicate stuff now | 00:20 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, well, i have been usig it to connect to my router and set it up for wifi access. yesterday i typed ifconfig, and i only see wlan0 and l0. eth0 has vanished. it is also not listed when i do lshw -C network | 00:20 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, anything about it in dmesg? | 00:20 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, also, ifconfig -a? | 00:20 |
| Seveas | jeimuzu, no, you can simply download them to wherever you want and use the appearance dialog to install them | 00:20 |
| jeimuzu | you guys know anything about yaho chat? | 00:20 |
| nickrud | aceer, not sure what you mean: if you mean all the stuff that's not in your $HOME , don't worry about them on the original install. | 00:20 |
| notwist | jeimuzu: download them to ~/.themes/ | 00:21 |
| jeimuzu | k | 00:21 |
| sysop1972 | to do an installation of LAMP and Ubuntu 8.04 server with a GUI do I click other options before install? | 00:22 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, ill check... | 00:22 |
| aceer | nickrud - sorry, little vague, basically all the info i need would be kept in the home/username directory, what about any other stuff I have installed, is there a easy way to apply all that? | 00:22 |
| kyncani | AlexJP: there has been a kernel update two days ago or so, you may try with the previous kernel (assuming you have updated of course) | 00:22 |
| nickrud | aceer, once you copy all them over from the first disk into your home on the new disk, they apply as soon as the app is started. Say you had firefox closed, copied over the old .mozilla dir, as soon as you open firefox the old settings would be seen | 00:23 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, can you have a look please? http://pastebin.com/m2d15deb9 | 00:24 |
| linduxed | is there anyone who knows how to get a akm02se keyboard running? | 00:25 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, And eth0 didn't show up in ifconfig -a? | 00:25 |
| Seveas | linduxed, have you tried the forums? | 00:25 |
| Bizzeh | is there a patch for grub available that ubuntu uses to add the "quiet" command to it? | 00:25 |
| AlexJP | nope | 00:25 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Wireless? Bluetooth-type, or usb? | 00:25 |
| AlexJP | just l0 and wlan0 | 00:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bizzeh Edit your grub/menu.lst | 00:26 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, Hrm, as someone mentioned earlier, you may want to try a previous kernel. (From the grub menu) | 00:26 |
| === sean is now known as Guest80460 | ||
| Bizzeh | Jack_Sparrow: no, iwant the patch, so i can add it into grub on my LFS | 00:26 |
| Seveas | Bizzeh, yes, if you 'apt-get source grub' it's in grub-0.97/debian/patches/quiet.diff | 00:26 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, will i have to type a certain command to get a previous kernel? | 00:26 |
| jpastore | hi I just installed a wireless N card in my laptop, but it looks like I'm still using 802.11g when I do iwconfig. is there anyway to force it to use N instead of G? | 00:26 |
| threeseas | trying to run eric4 but it seems it doesn't make the tcp connection to the shell it is started from..... any help? | 00:27 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, When you get to the grub menu, there should be several Ubuntu options. | 00:27 |
| Bizzeh | Seveas: and, if i dont have an ubuntu install :) ? | 00:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bizzeh I have never heard of a patch | 00:27 |
| Seveas | Bizzeh, | 00:27 |
| AlexJP | yeh like press C for command line, etc.? | 00:27 |
| Ahadiel | Bizzeh, I thought you just add quiet? | 00:27 |
| RoAkSoAx | jpastore, is your access point an N based standard? | 00:27 |
| Seveas | Bizzeh, http://people.ubuntu-nl.org/~dennis/quiet.diff | 00:27 |
| Baughn | jpastore: 802.11n still isn't finalized, and.. last I checked, the few n cards that are even supported in linux are only supported in g mode. That was a few months ago, though; you should keep checking | 00:27 |
| wigren | hi all! i have a nvidia GForce 6100 that i'm not to fond of. I'm looking for a new graphics card. i don't need any thing special, just compiz and simple games. any suggestions? | 00:27 |
| Bizzeh | Ahadiel: you do, when you have a patched version of grub from ubuntu, when you have vanilla ubuntu, it doesnt exist | 00:28 |
| Bizzeh | ty Seveas | 00:28 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, Uhh, The topmost option should be the most recent kernel you have installed. So at the menu just use your arrow keys to go to a lower one. | 00:28 |
| Baughn | wigren: What's wrong with the one you have? | 00:28 |
| Seveas | I assume you mean vanilla grub? :) | 00:28 |
| Ahadiel | Vanilla ubuntu is debian, yes? | 00:28 |
| Baughn | Ahadiel: No, ubuntu | 00:28 |
| Starnestommy | Ahadiel: it's based on debian but isn't | 00:28 |
| Skyrail | Seveas: any idea how to compare to files (or large text blocks) quickly and easily? And I'm sure dmesg doesn't show all of the messages shown at boot up :/ | 00:28 |
| aceer | nickrud - last question i hope, the .mozilla dir would be in the home/username dir? | 00:28 |
| Seveas | Bizzeh, please note that this patch is applied after some other patches so it might not apply cleanly on a vanilla grub | 00:29 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, oh yeah! wondered why there were two all of a sudden! | 00:29 |
| AlexJP | brb then | 00:29 |
| Baughn | Skyrail: diff -u file1 file2 | 00:29 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, thanks! | 00:29 |
| Skyrail | Oh nevermind, maybe it does | 00:29 |
| Bizzeh | Ahadiel: you have no idea what im asking, and Seveas solved my problem | 00:29 |
| wigren | Baughn, compiz doesn't work on it. or i should say it does, but it makes my sound all distorted. and dvd play back is hit or miss | 00:29 |
| nickrud | aceer, yes | 00:29 |
| Bizzeh | Seveas: its ok, i was gonna use the patch to manually mod the code anyway | 00:29 |
| Ahadiel | Bizzeh, How can you just assume that? | 00:29 |
| Bizzeh | thanks very much for this :D | 00:29 |
| threeseas | what tools might I use to check local tcp connections? | 00:29 |
| Skyrail | Baughn: I'll give that a try, thank you, so many commands I never knew about heh | 00:29 |
| Baughn | wigren: That sounds more like a motherboard issue, tbh | 00:29 |
| Seveas | Bizzeh, have fun with it | 00:29 |
| Baughn | wigren: AGP card? | 00:29 |
| sysop1972 | When you add a new hard drive to a Ubuntu system is it the same as adding a drive to a windows system? Does it automatically detect it and then it just needs to be formatted? | 00:29 |
| Seveas | threeseas, netstat, tcpdump, iptraf, bwm | 00:29 |
| Bizzeh | Ahadiel: because of what you have said.. it relates in no way to what im trying to do and what Seveas has helped me do | 00:30 |
| threeseas | tlks | 00:30 |
| Seveas | threeseas, depends on what information you want :) | 00:30 |
| threeseas | thanks | 00:30 |
| Jetts | Seveas no dice with lilo - it hangs as well if I have the sata drives plugged in | 00:30 |
| Ahadiel | Bizzeh, I only said one thing to you | 00:30 |
| kyncani | sysop1972: yep | 00:30 |
| Jordan_U | Jettis, What is the problem you are having? | 00:30 |
| Seveas | Jetts, with grub, edit menu.lst to use (hd0,0) | 00:30 |
| Ahadiel | Bizzeh, And that was to try adding quiet. | 00:30 |
| Baughn | wigren: (Sounds like it isn't allocating sufficient PCI bandwidth to the sound card, or dvd.. er, that takes a bit, but I doubt it's the card, at least not by itself | 00:30 |
| Jetts | Seveas going to switch back to grub and try changing the menu.lst like you suggested | 00:30 |
| wigren | Baughn, to be honest i'm not sure. how can i tell with out taking it apart. i bought it in 2005. | 00:30 |
| aceer | nickrud - thanks alot | 00:31 |
| Jetts | Jordan_U I have a mix of IDE and sata drives, specifically 1 IDE (primary boot drive) and 4 sata drives (for storage), if I unplug the sata drives life is dandy to boot up, if I plug them in both lilo and grub freeze without any error messages | 00:31 |
| Baughn | wigren: Run lspci, see how many different numbers there are on the very first column | 00:31 |
| wigren | Baughn, 00:00.0? | 00:32 |
| Baughn | wigren: No, just 00: | 00:32 |
| === Exteris is now known as Exteris^ | ||
| Baughn | wigren: It goes bus:device.subdevice | 00:32 |
| === Exteris^ is now known as Exteris | ||
| Jordan_U | Jettis, Is there any output from either? | 00:32 |
| Baughn | wigren: You presumably have more than one pci device, but I'd like to know how many busses there are | 00:32 |
| Baughn | wigren: If it's /all/ 00, that means they're all on the same pci bus, and you've got a /pci/ gfx card - that would definitely be a problem. If everything but the card is 00: and the card is 01:, that means it's agp, pretty much. If there are lots of them, pci express.. or some more unusual pci setups, but those are mostly in laptops | 00:32 |
| Jetts | Jordan_U nope, just stuck at Loading Grub, Please wait... (can't remember the exact message) | 00:32 |
| linduxed | Baughn: Seveas: its a usb based wireless RF-connection mouse+keyboard combo that is totally dead when used under linux | 00:33 |
| threeseas | Saveas: I'm trying to see the local connection between eric4 IDe and the shell/terminal from which it was started from and perhaps get it going it not | 00:33 |
| Seveas | Jordan_U, basically: grub looks for its rootdevice in the wrong place :) | 00:33 |
| linduxed | Baughn: Seveas: or so it seems | 00:33 |
| wigren | Baughn, the last on e is 04 | 00:33 |
| Skyrail | Oh man, wish I understood this diff file haha | 00:33 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Do other usb-based mice/keyboards work? | 00:33 |
| sysop1972 | kyncani: The system I am making is a file server wo there are shared folders. What I am wondering is how it will work when more storage is needed and I add a drive. Will I need to create new shares on that drive or does it somehow add the new drive space to the old shares? | 00:33 |
| Sp0tter | I'm having problems with occasionaly i cannot remotely connect to my ubuntu server after a restart. This has happened intermitantly since I added my taps and bridge for VitualBox. This is my interfaces file: http://pastebin.com/m40e0464c , are there any ovbious problems with it? I have onephysical nic and want to have two bridged virtual ones. | 00:33 |
| Baughn | wigren: Ah hmm. Can you type lspci -vv and paste the output somewhere? | 00:33 |
| Seveas | linduxed, does it work in windows *without* additional drivers? | 00:33 |
| linduxed | Baughn: well yeah ive got a razer plugged in now | 00:33 |
| Sp0tter | Doh, i broke the paste rule. Edit: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28367/ | 00:34 |
| linduxed | Seveas: have not tried that yet, but the shit says PnP | 00:34 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Then if we assume HID is working, the obvious conclusion is that your mouse is broken and doesn't support HID properly. Not good. | 00:34 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Does it require drivers to work in windows? | 00:34 |
| Seveas | linduxed, can you plug it in now and see what dmesg reports about it? | 00:34 |
| linduxed | Baughn: dont know yet havent tried it there | 00:35 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Does it /come/ with drivers? A CD? | 00:35 |
| kyncani | sysop1972: you may take a look at lvm. Wikipedia and google are your friends. | 00:35 |
| linduxed | Baughn: yupp a cd | 00:35 |
| Seveas | Baughn, (probably for keys with extra functions) | 00:35 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Too bad. If it didn't, that wouldn't be it. | 00:35 |
| linduxed | Seveas: ive plugged it in now | 00:35 |
| Jetts | Seveas you're gonna love this, changed menu.lst to hd0,0 and still same behavior | 00:35 |
| Baughn | Seveas: *nod* | 00:35 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Can you paste the last few lines of dmesg output, then? | 00:35 |
| Seveas | Jetts, well sh!t :) | 00:35 |
| vices | i'm having trouble understanding what the numbers here mean (related to the diff command) http://pastie.org/236855 | 00:36 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, nah still not got it man | 00:36 |
| Baughn | Jetts: Can you check if you happen to have a menu.lst /and/ a grub.conf? | 00:36 |
| Jetts | Seveas ya, if it was something relatively simple, I probably would've gotten it by now ;) | 00:36 |
| Jetts | Baughn sure, give me a minute to boot into rescue mode again, but I'm fairly certain I just have a menu.lst | 00:36 |
| Seveas | Jetts, I'm running out of clues... are there things in the bios that allow you to change bios order? Or can you try installing with sata unplugged and booting with sata plugged in? | 00:36 |
| wigren | Baughn: is this ok? http://www.mediafire.com/?ngtqkj1nmz0 | 00:37 |
| jpastore | Baughn, where do I check? | 00:37 |
| kyncani | sysop1972: without lvm, either 1) you will need to create a new share or 2) you can mount the drive in a directory within your share, so that that specific directory will be hosted on a new drive. | 00:37 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, Hrm, that's trange. What ethernet card do you have? | 00:37 |
| d600 | when i try to move a 4.3gb file to my external hdd it says no more space but my hdd is 20gb and empty | 00:37 |
| Baughn | vices: They're meant for patch input; you don't want to try reading them | 00:37 |
| jpastore | RoAkSoAx, yes I have a linksys wrt110 N router | 00:37 |
| Baughn | vices: diff -u will give nicer output, though. Decimal, at least. | 00:37 |
| Baughn | vices: diff -u -c 3, nicer yet | 00:37 |
| linduxed | Baughn: http://pastebin.com/m25561962 | 00:37 |
| Ahadiel | strange* | 00:37 |
| Jetts | Seveas I think part of the problem is I'm using PCI - Sata cards to load in two extra sata drives, because my bios is set to boot hd-0 first and sata drives second | 00:37 |
| vices | Baughn: ohh, ok, I wanted to try inputting the lines myself by hand | 00:37 |
| jpastore | My biggest problem is that azureus or any large file transfers causes my wireless to hang and I have to reconnect to the wireless network...some times restart | 00:37 |
| jpastore | it's very frustrating | 00:37 |
| Baughn | wigren: That's silly. Use a pastebin - rafb.net, maybe | 00:37 |
| linduxed | Seveas: http://pastebin.com/m25561962 | 00:38 |
| vices | Baughn: so those aren't line numbers or anything? | 00:38 |
| jpastore | with a g router I'm ok though | 00:38 |
| Seveas | Jetts, then the trick with installing grub with sata unplugged might actually work | 00:38 |
| Baughn | vices: They are. Or something. | 00:38 |
| Sp0tter | Could someone using bridged networking with more than one virtualbox please pastebin their interfaces file? | 00:38 |
| Baughn | vices: diff -u -c 3 really is nicer. Use that. ;) | 00:38 |
| vices | Baughn alright, thanks :) | 00:38 |
| d600 | when i try to move a 4.3gb file to my external hdd it says no more space but my hdd is 20gb and empty | 00:38 |
| Jetts | Seveas okay I'll give that a whirl - at this point, just booting would make me happy | 00:38 |
| aceer | are there any good lists or sites for things to do after a fresh install of ubuntu | 00:38 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Well, according to this output it's working | 00:38 |
| wigren | Baughn: http://rafb.net/p/sbEheq35.html | 00:39 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Are you /sure/ your mouse isn't working? If you cat /dev/input/mice and move the mouse, does it have no effect on output? | 00:39 |
| linduxed | Baughn: well yeah and lsusb lists it too | 00:39 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, its a netgear fa31 | 00:39 |
| Seveas | linduxed, did you do weird things to your xorg.conf? | 00:39 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, fa311***** | 00:39 |
| Baughn | wigren: Ah heh. PCI Express. | 00:39 |
| Seveas | linduxed, does the keybosrd work in rescue mode? | 00:39 |
| notwist | Seveas: um yeah im pretty sure | 00:39 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, Did you have to download any special drivers for it, or did it just work out of the box? | 00:39 |
| RoAkSoAx | jpastore, i don't think you are gonna be able to get it working on N standard | 00:40 |
| Baughn | wigren: I don't know what may be causing the problems, then. I /guess/ going into your bios and resetting to "safe" setting might do something; you should try that | 00:40 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, just intalled linux and it was there | 00:40 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, installed* | 00:40 |
| Baughn | wigren: But as for a replacement.. well, try to borrow one to make sure it isn't your mobo first | 00:40 |
| Seveas | notwist, ? | 00:40 |
| wigren | Baughn: alright will do. thanks | 00:40 |
| jpastore | RoAkSoAx, ok that kinda sucks...any ideas why my wireless would just stop working on large file transfers? | 00:40 |
| Baughn | wigren: Beyond that, ATI cards should be getting good support.. er, sometime next year, maybe. Old ones already work well with the open-source driver, but then we're talking 9800 or so. | 00:41 |
| Baughn | Which I doubt you'll find in pci-express form | 00:41 |
| RoAkSoAx | jpastore, try blacklisting ipv6 | 00:41 |
| max_ | For some reason, sound plays out of my computer (and speakers, but sometimes only from my computer). I tried muting everything in alsamixer, with no success. How do I disable my built in speakers? | 00:41 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: ok i just fired up the mouse now (as this is a mouse+keyboard combo, i didnt put batteries into the mouse before as ive got a superior mouse, just wanted the keyboard) | 00:41 |
| Baughn | max_: Cut the speaker wires. No, seriously. | 00:41 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: and it works | 00:41 |
| jpastore | RoAkSoAx, modify /etc/modules/blacklist right? and jsut add ipv6? | 00:41 |
| Seveas | max_, the pcspeaker beeps or actual sound? | 00:41 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, When was it last working? | 00:41 |
| Baughn | max_: Oh, or google://ubuntu+system+beep | 00:41 |
| sysop1972 | kyncani: I heard LVM was not very reduntant and if it fails you will have a hard time recovering the data. | 00:42 |
| AlexJP | yesterday | 00:42 |
| cottima | hello, I am trying to config my bios, should HPET (High Precision Event Timer) be enabled? Does it make a difference? | 00:42 |
| glitsj16 | aceer: http://linuxondesktop.blogspot.com/2008/04/things-to-do-on-your-new-ubuntu-804.html could be a starting place for that | 00:42 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: so apparently the connection is ok, but theres something strange with the keyboard | 00:42 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Righto. Then you just have to get X pointed at it. | 00:42 |
| Seveas | linduxed, maybe the batteries in the keyboard are empty/connected the wrong way around? | 00:42 |
| aceer | glitsj16 thanks! | 00:42 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, or maybe the day before, cant remember. it was definitely working on wednesday anyway | 00:42 |
| Baughn | linduxed: I imagine the "strange" thing is that you have two keyboards connected, and linux doesn't know which to use | 00:42 |
| Baughn | Though sure, check for batteries | 00:42 |
| kyncani | sysop1972: lvm is not redundancy, as is a single standard drive. You should keep making backup. | 00:42 |
| linduxed | Seveas: nope, its got an inbuilt calculator and its on | 00:42 |
| Seveas | Baughn, linux can deal with multiple keyboards just fine | 00:43 |
| glitsj16 | aceer: no problem, enjoy the ubuntu :) | 00:43 |
| Seveas | I regularly have 3 connected :) | 00:43 |
| max_ | Sound still comes from my computer. | 00:43 |
| Baughn | Seveas: Depends on X setup though, doesn't it? | 00:43 |
| aceer | love it! | 00:43 |
| linduxed | Baughn: well this is a laptop.... | 00:43 |
| Baughn | linduxed: Doesn't mean you can't rip out the old one | 00:43 |
| Seveas | linduxed, drat. Maybe not synced with the basestation? There's usually a sync button on both base and keyboard | 00:43 |
| Baughn | linduxed: No, as Seveas says, it /should/ work fine. Might just need a little extra setup. | 00:43 |
| Seveas | Baughn, default X | 00:43 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, any clue? | 00:43 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, That's strange. Maybe the card somehow came loose or it just died. -_- | 00:44 |
| chriswr | i just downloaded corkys screenlet , how do i make it stick to the desktop instead of all my applications going under it? | 00:44 |
| linduxed | Baughn: Seveas: just pressed the reset button on the keyboard, no effect | 00:44 |
| AlexJP | the card is in because the light on it is on | 00:44 |
| sysop1972 | kyncani: I does access multiple drives as a single drive though, correct? Kind of like a striped raid? So if one drive fails you are in big trouble? | 00:44 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, yeah the card light is on, and ethernet connection indicator on router is on too | 00:44 |
| RoAkSoAx | jpastore, in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist add: blacklist ipv6 and then reboot and verify if it has been blacklisted | 00:44 |
| Seveas | linduxed, hit <ctrl><alt><f2> and see if it works there. TO get back to the gui, hit <alt><f7> | 00:45 |
| Baughn | ..why would you want to disable ipv6? | 00:45 |
| kyncani | sysop1972: yeah, but what if you don't use lvm and one drive fails ? | 00:45 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, Hrm, well the card itself could be defective. How long have you had it for? (And just to clarify, it doesn't show up in ifconfig -a?) | 00:45 |
| linduxed | Seveas: nope it didnt work there | 00:45 |
| Seveas | Baughn, some nasty providers have such a crappy setup that your connection slows down a lot if you enable it | 00:45 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, ive had it a few weeks | 00:46 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, it works fine in windoze | 00:46 |
| Seveas | linduxed, ok, so it's not an X problem | 00:46 |
| chriswr | can anyone help i just downloaded corkys screenlet (i allredy have the editing file in my home folder) , how do i make it stick to the desktop instead of all my applications going under it? | 00:46 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, just not in linux | 00:46 |
| Baughn | Seveas: Also known as "old routers that handle ipv6 in software.. on 30MHz processors" | 00:46 |
| Baughn | But yeah, I guess | 00:46 |
| sysop1972 | kyncani: it is quite a bit easier to recover because reconstucting data that is spread over multiple drives is not fun. | 00:46 |
| Baughn | That only happens if you also /use/ it, though | 00:46 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, Oh -_- Well that's not good. | 00:46 |
| owner | need help with installer | 00:46 |
| bobertdos | AlexJP: Does it show up in lspci? | 00:46 |
| Seveas | Baughn, or dns fuckups, though that can be remedied with a firefox tweak (the primary victim of that) | 00:47 |
| Jordan_U | owner, What problem are you having? | 00:47 |
| owner | I am stuck in the menu | 00:47 |
| owner | chose a mirror site | 00:47 |
| Baughn | Seveas: Me, I don't /have/ an ipv4 address. Pity me. | 00:47 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: ok so status is: RF-link works fine with mouse, but not with keyb. keyb doesnt work in neither X nor in shell, it has been reset a couple of times | 00:47 |
| notwist | owner: choose one close to you | 00:47 |
| Seveas | owner, choose this: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu | 00:47 |
| Baughn | Well, unless "10.14.3.171" is supposed to count | 00:47 |
| Seveas | Baughn, you still have 127.0.0.1 :) | 00:47 |
| kyncani | sysop1972: afaik, it's not any easier. In fact, it's the same. | 00:48 |
| owner | i have it just comes back whit the same | 00:48 |
| owner | chose a mirror | 00:48 |
| Jetts | Seveas I'm ready to throw this computer across the room - I just installed grub on the ide drive with only that drive in, and it boots fine, as soon as I plug in even one sata drive the system hangs on "GRUB loading, please wait..." | 00:48 |
| Jordan_U | owner, Are you using the alternate install CD? | 00:48 |
| Seveas | Jetts, stop using the IDE drive? :) | 00:48 |
| __yy | Hi all, I installed flashplugin-nonfree in an attempt to make flash use less cpu. Now I get no sound with flash with or without flashplugin-nonfree installed. What have I done????? | 00:48 |
| AlexJP | no not in lspci | 00:48 |
| owner | i am doing a networkinstall | 00:48 |
| Seveas | __yy, you broke it :) | 00:49 |
| Jordan_U | Jettis, Are you sure it's not a hardware problem? | 00:49 |
| AlexJP | __yy there are some issues with flashplayer 9 | 00:49 |
| Jetts | Seveas if only it were that simple, my 4 sata drives are each raid-1 with lvm on top of the raid... and I'm out of sata ports | 00:49 |
| Baughn | __yy: The nonfree plugin does /not/ use less cpu, either | 00:49 |
| owner | have the menu eveythinglooks good | 00:49 |
| Jetts | Jordan_U far as I'm aware everything was working fine up until my IDE drive died | 00:49 |
| Baughn | Quite the opposite | 00:49 |
| __yy | Seveas: obviously, I'm really looking for what part of it I broke. | 00:49 |
| owner | dhcp running ok | 00:49 |
| AlexJP | --yy try the beta version of flash player 10 | 00:49 |
| Ahadiel | AlexJP, I'm not sure what else to tell you. Maybe try posting on the forum about it to see if anyone else is having the problem. | 00:49 |
| __yy | AlexJP: I will try that | 00:49 |
| AlexJP | Ahadiel, ok thanks mate | 00:49 |
| owner | according to the installer at least | 00:50 |
| __yy | Baughn: yes, I've noticed that | 00:50 |
| AlexJP | --yy ive heard its worked for some poeple | 00:50 |
| owner | now i am stuck here | 00:50 |
| Baughn | __yy: Oh, but you might try dpkg --purge flashplugin-nonfree | 00:50 |
| Seveas | owner, I've given you an answer 3 times now. Have you even tried it? | 00:50 |
| __yy | AlexJP: I assume the beta flash player is not in the repos? | 00:50 |
| owner | i know bro tried it didnt do anything still came back with the same | 00:50 |
| owner | menu | 00:51 |
| jmarsden | /leave | 00:51 |
| AlexJP | __yy you can get it from macromedia website | 00:51 |
| AlexJP | __yy or bobertdos may know the url | 00:51 |
| Seveas | owner, the menu that says 'pick a mirror' or the one that has a list of instaler steps? if it's the latter, just go for the next step | 00:52 |
| __yy | AlexJP: ok, just making sure there isn't a package before I go installing manually | 00:52 |
| AlexJP | __yy i dont think so | 00:52 |
| AlexJP | __yy dont forget to uninstall all other flash first | 00:53 |
| BrandonS | Hi all!!! | 00:53 |
| BrandonS | God damn lots of people in here | 00:53 |
| Seveas | BrandonS, about 500 below our record right now | 00:53 |
| Seveas | so it's not too bad yet :) | 00:53 |
| BrandonS | lol | 00:53 |
| BrandonS | Well Hi I'm Brandon I'm 17 and I'm from California | 00:54 |
| Jetts | Seveas interesting - just reset my bios settings to default and apparently I'm getting an Error 21 now - I'm going to try re-installing grub with everything plugged in | 00:54 |
| BrandonS | And I just wanted to say I discovered Ubuntu a year ago and thought it was great | 00:54 |
| chriswr | plzzz help , i need a screenlet to stay under everything instead of always on top (the screenlet is corkys) and i dont know what to put in the file to command it to do that | 00:54 |
| BrandonS | But I can't use it because Microsoft Flight Simulator won't work with it | 00:54 |
| td123 | so, I was wanting to switch somebody to ubuntu, (nub) but I'm having difficulty getting wmv support that is embedded in web pages. Is there anything that I can use? | 00:54 |
| BrandonS | But! I'm bored with Flight Simulator and want to go back to ubuntu! But I need a good linux tutorial | 00:55 |
| freebse | lol of course MS Flight Sim does not work :) | 00:55 |
| Seveas | td123, w32codecs (http://www.medibuntu.org) and ubuntu-restricted-extras | 00:55 |
| Skyrail | Seveas: well there were definitely a large number of changes, it's a matter of going through them and knowing what to look for I guess? | 00:55 |
| Dr_willis | BrandonS, linuxlinks.com is a good place to start. :) | 00:55 |
| owner | it list the steps and its on the mirror step right now | 00:55 |
| Seveas | BrandonS, http://help.ubuntu.com should get you started :) | 00:55 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: ok so status is: RF-link works fine with mouse, but not with keyb. keyb doesnt work in neither X nor in shell, it has been reset a couple of times | 00:55 |
| BrandonS | thank you very much sirs | 00:56 |
| td123 | Seveas: I think I have tried those, but they don't actually let me pause the vids while on the webpage. | 00:56 |
| BrandonS | Or mams | 00:56 |
| Seveas | owner, what happens if you simply pock the next step? | 00:56 |
| Seveas | td123, install mozilla-mplayer and get rid of totem-mozilla | 00:56 |
| Dr_willis | td123, ive seen that a lot depends on the specific web page. Some sites just do things oddly at times. | 00:56 |
| owner | next is dloadd instalaer components | 00:56 |
| owner | then execute a shell | 00:56 |
| Dr_willis | td123, i second Seveas in the 'use mozilla-mplayer' idea also. :) | 00:57 |
| Seveas | BrandonS, and if you want to play a flightsim, try flightgear. It's nowhere near MS flightsim but at least it flies :) | 00:57 |
| owner | then abort install | 00:57 |
| harpreet | how do i set up an ftp server? | 00:57 |
| _xyz | help: unable to get sound in WINE apps with ALSA (Creative SB X-Fi card) | 00:57 |
| Dr_willis | !ftp | harpreet | 00:57 |
| ubottu | harpreet: FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd | 00:57 |
| Seveas | !ftpd | harpreet | 00:57 |
| ubottu | harpreet: FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd, MuddleFTPd, wzdftpd - Graphical front-ends: PureAdmin, GProftpd (for GNOME), KcmPureftpd (for !KDE) - See also !FTP | 00:57 |
| Dr_willis | oops :) | 00:57 |
| Seveas | :) | 00:57 |
| BrandonS | (16:56:59) (Seveas) BrandonS, and if you want to play a flightsim, try flightgear. It's nowhere near MS flightsim but at least it flies :) | 00:57 |
| BrandonS | Nah I'm bored with Flight Sim | 00:57 |
| owner | <Seveas>thats it | 00:57 |
| freebse | besides old versions of MS flight sim are working with this commercial wine | 00:58 |
| Seveas | BrandonS, ok, then try xmoto :) | 00:58 |
| owner | Seveas, you there | 00:58 |
| BrandonS | What's that? Seveas? | 00:58 |
| Seveas | BrandonS, motor stunt game | 00:58 |
| super-6-1 | Hello, I have 2 problems if anyone can help. Ok, can a ubuntu laptop pick up a Windows AD HOC network, and, how can i make a updaye from 7.04 to 8.04 faster? | 00:58 |
| freebse | but work does not mean it runs really, so it is really buggy etc | 00:59 |
| BrandonS | Well I recently bought a new computer to handle fs but I got bored with it fast :P | 00:59 |
| Seveas | super-6-1, (q1) it can (q2) get a faster network connection :) | 00:59 |
| BrandonS | os: Windows XP Professional, SP2 (installed on July 2 2008) :: uptime: 9h 53m 21s | 00:59 |
| BrandonS | os: Windows XP Professional, SP2 :: cpu: Intel Core2 Duo E6850 3.00GHz (at 2992 MHz) :: mem: 935/2048 MB (45%) :: gfx: nVidia GeForce 8800 GT (1280x1024x32bit 60Hz) | 00:59 |
| Seveas | BrandonS, don't do that in here please | 00:59 |
| BrandonS | Oh I'm sorry | 00:59 |
| td123 | super-6-1: (q2) just download the ubuntu 8.04.1 cd and use that instead of the upgrade | 01:00 |
| AlexJP | BrandonS how did u do that | 01:00 |
| super-6-1 | td123 my laptop wont go above 800x600 res and when im on 7.04 it can | 01:00 |
| BrandonS | It's built in to my MIRC Client AlexJP | 01:00 |
| BrandonS | For Windows :P | 01:01 |
| Seveas | AlexJP, there are similar scripts for xchat and irssi. But we don't tolerate such scripts in here | 01:01 |
| linduxed | Seveas: are there any things i have not tried that i may try? | 01:01 |
| Seveas | linduxed, none that come to mind, not knowing the hardware. | 01:01 |
| super-6-1 | Well, here a better question. Can i add resolutions to ubuntu 8.04 | 01:02 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, Yes, most likely your problem with not having the correct resolution is a driver issue though | 01:03 |
| Blaqlight | Im curious as to why this program (E16) wants to remove ubuntu-desktop. problem is this, its supposed to be a dummy/virtual file and it would be safe to remove, so when I tried it said it was going to remove 142MB os stuff... hence NOT a dummy file. | 01:03 |
| CyberCod | Blaqlight: is that all it said it was going to remove? | 01:03 |
| Jordan_U | Blaqlight, Are you using aptitude or apt-get ? | 01:03 |
| Dr_willis | Blaqlight, are you installing use aptitude? | 01:03 |
| Dr_willis | Ive seen aptitude do some...odd things. | 01:04 |
| Blaqlight | Im using aptitude. | 01:04 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, I have a intell | 01:04 |
| Blaqlight | not apt-get | 01:04 |
| Jordan_U | Blaqlight, Use apt-get | 01:04 |
| Dr_willis | like remove 200+mb of things.. then reinstalled them | 01:04 |
| Baughn | Blaqlight: Package foo pulls in bar, remove foo and it will try to remove bar, even if bar doesn't depend on foo, simply to avoid cluttering your system with unused packages you didn't explicitly ask for | 01:04 |
| Blaqlight | well Im on dial-up so 145MB of stuff would make my system unusable. | 01:04 |
| Baughn | Here ubuntu-desktop is "foo" and 142MB of stuff falls under "bar" | 01:04 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, Can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 01:05 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: ok im sorry for the trouble i made a morons mistake | 01:05 |
| linduxed | Seveas: | 01:05 |
| CyberCod | Blaqlight: try doing it with apt-get and see if it still wants to remove all that... my guess is "no" | 01:05 |
| Seveas | linduxed, heh | 01:05 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, im not on ubuntu, havn't installed it yet. | 01:05 |
| Shane_ | Hi. I am duel booting my mac osx box with ubuntu using EFI is there a way to boot this partition using vmware ? | 01:05 |
| Baughn | linduxed: ..what'd you do? | 01:05 |
| Shane_ | or vmfusion on the mac so I dont have to reboot all the time | 01:05 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, So you were just having a problem getting the correct resolution on the LiveCD? | 01:06 |
| purp | What is the best program for making an exact duplicate of a disc, with a dual burner setup? | 01:06 |
| Blaqlight | CyberCod, this is what it still says. : The following packages will be REMOVED: | 01:06 |
| Blaqlight | pulseaudio-esound-compat ubuntu-desktop | 01:06 |
| CyberCod | Shane_: chances are it will depend on your vm client... if you can mount a real partition into the vm, then yeah, you can probably make it work | 01:06 |
| Shane_ | i got kicked... what was that? | 01:07 |
| Blaqlight | apt-get and aptitude does the same thing. | 01:07 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, no, I have installed it before, i could never get it above the 800x600 res, | 01:07 |
| CyberCod | Blaqlight: but it doesn't say that it's going to remove all the dependant packages, no? | 01:07 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, What version of Ubuntu ? | 01:07 |
| CyberCod | Blaqlight: does it say it will free up all that space? | 01:07 |
| Flannel | Blaqlight: right. Those are packages that depend on it, not that it depends on. | 01:07 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, 8.04 | 01:07 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, 7.04 works perfectly | 01:07 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: not only did one have to press the keyboards reset button....apparently one needed to press a setup button on the reciever too to get the keyb working (in contrast to the mouse which ran automatically)....I guess it all boiled down to some good old RTFM as i found the solution in the manual | 01:08 |
| AlexJP | Seveas, how would i do it in xchat? | 01:08 |
| CyberCod | Blaqlight: if you use synaptic it will make more sense to you | 01:08 |
| AlexJP | Seveas, i wont do it in here | 01:08 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: i feel pwnd.... | 01:08 |
| simard | I have 00:02.0 and 00:02.1 when running lspci, first one is VGA compatible controller, second one is Display controller. I have a laptop, so I am wondering if one of the two is the screen and the other the VGA outlet, can it be ? | 01:08 |
| * Blaqlight crosses fingers and hits enter at the (y/n) prompt | 01:08 | |
| FarmCretin | anyone use screen here? | 01:08 |
| glitsj16 | Shane: have you seen http://laurentbois.com/2008/04/26/install-ubuntu-804-using-vmware-fusion-on-mac-os-x/ ? | 01:08 |
| * linduxed hides in a corner.... | 01:08 | |
| zabecki-tech | I am back with the same file sharing problem. However, when I try to access from myself it says Unable to mount location, Failed to mount windows share. | 01:08 |
| Baughn | linduxed: ..we told you, in fact. | 01:09 |
| Flannel | Blaqlight: foo depends on bar and bar depends on baz, installing foo installs bar and baz, removing bar removes foo, but not baz. | 01:09 |
| Seveas | linduxed, I even told you to press those buttons :) | 01:09 |
| CyberCod | does anyone know of a good "wake-to-music" alarm clock type application that's easy enough for the wife to use? | 01:09 |
| Blaqlight | CyberCod, actually its the other way around, synaptic is far from "making more sense" frankly. | 01:09 |
| Baughn | linduxed: As punishment, you will cosplay as a maid for the rest of your stay in this channel. | 01:09 |
| Gnea | !rtfm | 01:09 |
| ubottu | Acronyms or statements like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period. | 01:09 |
| CyberCod | Blaqlight: but synaptic will tell you every single package that is going to be removed | 01:09 |
| Seveas | Baughn, he might enjoy that. I suggest watching the sound of music 10 times in a row :) | 01:10 |
| Baughn | Seveas: Cruel and unusual, man. Cruel and unusual. | 01:10 |
| Seveas | Baughn, that's me :) | 01:10 |
| linduxed | Seveas: Baughn: well i pressed the keyb-button frantically, but the reciever button actually looked like a hatch to open the damn thing >:-( | 01:10 |
| zabecki-tech | So as far as I can tell all the files are unmountable | 01:10 |
| * linduxed puts on dress... | 01:11 | |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, let me install ubuntu ok? | 01:11 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, Odd, perhaps try your 7.04 xorg.conf in 8.10, did you check if 8.04 was using the "intel" driver, if not then changing the driver from "vesa" to "intel" in your xorg.conf should do the trick, like you were asking before, also as you were asking, you can manually specify a resolution in your xorg.conf but that should not be necessary | 01:11 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, OK, I can also just as easily help from the LiveCD so you don't have to commit if you can't get it working | 01:12 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, alright. give me a hour be back on | 01:12 |
| Shane_ | glitsj16: I am trying to open ubuntu from mac osx with out rebooting they are on two sepreate Partitions | 01:12 |
| Shane_ | its not a vmdx | 01:12 |
| Shane_ | can vmware mount a physical disk? | 01:12 |
| Jordan_U | super-6-1, OK, I may or may not be here | 01:13 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: what problem are you having? | 01:13 |
| super-6-1 | Jordan_U, okey. | 01:13 |
| CyberCod | Shane_ some can | 01:13 |
| d600 | how do i change permissions of a mounted drive using terminal | 01:13 |
| glitsj16 | Shane_: i see, can't confirm the physical disk mount sorry | 01:13 |
| CyberCod | Shane_: not sure about that one.. | 01:13 |
| owner | guys i am stuck in the main menu of this installer what to do it wont let me go on | 01:14 |
| Dr_willis | d600, it can depend on what filesystem is mounted on the drive. | 01:14 |
| zabecki-tech | Well I am trying to share files from my ubuntu box to a windows network. I can see all there shares and files, They can see my computer in the network and the folders that I have shared, they just can't see the files or access the folders. | 01:14 |
| d600 | ext3 | 01:14 |
| zabecki-tech | So they end up getting an access denied. That they don't have permission. | 01:14 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: ok, so first off, what version you using, and 2nd, how did you go about setting up the share? | 01:15 |
| SinII | zabecki-tech: What is the exact error message? | 01:15 |
| FarmCretin | lets say i have lots of files in a folder, and i use ls. since im in screen, most of them get cut-off. how can you scroll up in screen? (CLI) | 01:15 |
| owner | saids chose a mirror onf the ubuntu archive and have trid more that 20 of them but it still give me bad mirror chose anather one the give me the same | 01:15 |
| zabecki-tech | I am using hardy 8.04 and i set up the shares using the share options in the right click and shares-admin | 01:15 |
| Striking7 | Woo! Just got a shiny new macbook pro - slapping Ubuntu on it as we speak! | 01:15 |
| Ahadiel | FarmCretin, ls | less | 01:15 |
| * Striking7 is stoked | 01:15 | |
| Baughn | FarmCretin: Or read the screen manual for log/copy commands.. | 01:16 |
| CyberCod | Owner what installer? be more specific | 01:16 |
| zabecki-tech | Exact error is that the user does not have permission to access and to contact the server admin. | 01:16 |
| bobertdos | AlexJP: Here's a good thought, you should see if eth0 functions in a live session. | 01:16 |
| Dr_willis | d600, I normally change the mode/ownership of the files/directories on the ext3 filesystem. Not sure if theres a way to 'override' the permissions for all files/dirs. | 01:16 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: ok, have you rebooted since sharing it? | 01:16 |
| FarmCretin | thanks Ahadiel , i think that will do the trick | 01:17 |
| zabecki-tech | yes | 01:17 |
| Haldrie | hello everyone | 01:17 |
| Aaron_Mason | hey all, having a strange issue with audio - I always get a delay when a sound is played... the message I get from VLC is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/28369/ and my audio controller is an ATI IXP SB400 AC'97 | 01:17 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: ok, what you need to do is set up the share the SAME EXACT WAY only use nauilus in root mode to do it | 01:17 |
| Haldrie | I have the new ubunut 8.04 and I'm trying to get the latest svn of brasero installed can anyone help me? | 01:17 |
| zabecki-tech | Ok how do I do that. | 01:17 |
| Delano | Hi... I use Ubuntu 8.04 default but I also installed KDE and now it overwrote gnome's login screen... how do I change back to gdm and take out kdm? | 01:18 |
| sdls | Has anyone tried suspending Ubuntu running off a USB pen drive and then resuming? | 01:18 |
| Shane_ | My intel mac on ubuntu the mouse keeps going nuts | 01:18 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: so unshare it, and then Alt+F2... type gksudo nautilus enter | 01:18 |
| CyberCod | brb | 01:18 |
| freebse | Delano: dpkg -reconfigure gdm | 01:18 |
| Delano | Anyone? | 01:18 |
| Dr_willis | sdls, ive heard in in here, that 'feature' dosent work very well. | 01:18 |
| Delano | freebse: in a terminal? | 01:18 |
| td123 | Delano: yes | 01:19 |
| Haldrie | looks like there are at least 5 thing going on at once in here | 01:19 |
| sdls | Dr_willis: yeah, I was afraid of that. I just tried it today and it, well, didn't work. | 01:19 |
| Dr_willis | Haldrie, i would guess more like 50 | 01:19 |
| yao_ziyuan | in upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04, the upgrader stalls at "About 4 minutes remaining" and the last console text is "Generating locales... en_AU.UTF-8..." | 01:19 |
| Delano | I tried that, but I don't understand the text | 01:19 |
| freebse | Delano: ya, another way is to uninstall gdm and reinstall it by synaptic if you are unsure about the dkpg thing | 01:19 |
| Dr_willis | sdls, i cant even get it to work with internal drives very well.. Even under windows :) | 01:19 |
| CyberCod | back | 01:19 |
| sdls | Dr_willis: k. Suspend is a bit hit or miss unfortunately! | 01:19 |
| yao_ziyuan | it seems the console will not roll out new text anymore (it has been staying there for hours) | 01:20 |
| yao_ziyuan | how do i rescue this upgrade? | 01:20 |
| zabecki-tech | ok after I do that what do I need to do reboot | 01:20 |
| Delano | freebse: isn't there a way to just bring up gdm and just set it back to default? | 01:20 |
| Dr_willis | sdls, yep. My laptops really get confused - reguardless of the os. when i suspend them - take them to work. and plug in a bunch of different hardware. :) | 01:20 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: shouldn't | 01:20 |
| Haldrie | I am trying to install the lastest SVN of Brasero on Ubuntu 8.04. PM me if you can help. | 01:21 |
| CyberCod | try it | 01:21 |
| CyberCod | see if you can see the files | 01:21 |
| zabecki-tech | Well I don't see the shares | 01:21 |
| CyberCod | refresh | 01:21 |
| yao_ziyuan | help! | 01:21 |
| CyberCod | yao_ziyuan: whats wrong? | 01:21 |
| freebse | Delano: ??? I told you to reinstall gdm, this will let you choose again | 01:22 |
| Delano | Okay thanks | 01:22 |
| yao_ziyuan | CyberCod: in upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04, the upgrader stalls at "About 4 minutes remaining" and the last console text is "Generating locales... en_AU.UTF-8..." it seems the console will not roll out new text anymore (it has been staying there for hours) how do i rescue this upgrade? | 01:22 |
| Candale | im bored what is something cool I can mess with? | 01:22 |
| Baughn | yao_ziyuan: At this point.. it would be best if you don't. Install from scratch if you can - you did have a backup of /home, right? | 01:23 |
| Ahadiel | Candale, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:23 |
| Baughn | yao_ziyuan: (If you don't, it's not to late to make one now) | 01:23 |
| zabecki-tech | I tried to refresh still can't see the folders now | 01:23 |
| freebse | Candale: format and reinstall if you are bored, this will make you busy for a while :) | 01:23 |
| CyberCod | yao_ziyuan: I don't know the answer, but I can ask some more questions... how old is this machine? if you look in the system monitor, what is taking up all the processing power? Is there a dropdown triangle? maybe it's waiting for you to answer a question | 01:23 |
| Delano | freebse: I tried, didn't work | 01:24 |
| Candale | freebse, funny | 01:24 |
| CyberCod | zabecki-tech: ok, when you shared it, did it get a orange shared icon on the folder? | 01:24 |
| Shane_ | How can ubunutu write to mac osx partition | 01:24 |
| freebse | Delano: what did not work | 01:24 |
| Delano | freebse: I reinstalled gdm in synaptic, didn't work | 01:24 |
| freebse | Delano: remove kdm | 01:25 |
| yao_ziyuan | Baughn: it seems some packages still need setting up. can i close the upgrader and manually run something to continue/redo package setting up? | 01:25 |
| Baughn | yao_ziyuan: Yes. But I can't tell you over irc what, and since you're asking, you won't manage either. :/ | 01:25 |
| Baughn | yao_ziyuan: You can certainly /try/, but it's likely to break things even worse | 01:26 |
| cappicard | this is very annoying. I cannot connect to mediabuntu.org | 01:26 |

| lenswipe | readable and writable | 01:26 |
| Seveas | cappicard, it's medibuntu | 01:26 |

| lenswipe | I want to make /var/www when im a samba user | 01:27 |
| Delano | freebse: still doesn't work | 01:27 |
| lenswipe | I want to make /var/www when im a samba user | 01:27 |
| FloodBot1 | lenswipe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:27 |
| cappicard | it resolved that time... time warner's havng issues evidently | 01:27 |

| Bizzeh | Baughn: as a developer, and a user, and, pretty much anything you can do with computers and/or software.. im saying.. software sucks, but computers in general suck even more | 01:28 |
| lenswipe | I want to make /var/www when im a samba user | 01:28 |
| Delano | freebse: then what? | 01:28 |
| yao_ziyuan | Baughn: there is a Power Manager tray icon running which can't normally be closed which i highly suspect caused the endless delay | 01:28 |
| Baughn | Bizzeh: Yeah, well.. abstraction does work. It's a pity we can't seem to use them properly | 01:28 |
| freebse | Delano: it can not be bustet, the worst that can happen is that X does not start automatically anymore | 01:29 |
| genii | lenswipe: Make the samba username into the group of the web server | 01:29 |
| genii | lenswipe: Add it to the group rather | 01:29 |
| Bizzeh | Baughn: the whole design of how computers work is flawed and unscalable, it takes hack on hack on hack, to make a computer actualy turn on | 01:29 |
| freebse | Delano: then it will start gdm | 01:29 |
| sdls | I'm going to play with suspend for a bit, see if I can get it working on the usb drive. | 01:29 |

| Baughn | Bizzeh: But hey, EFI's not too bad | 01:30 |
| Blaqlight | Gnome will not load at all. so how do I fix esound to work or gnome. | 01:30 |
| bobbob1016 | PiTT, It might be better to say your problem as clearly as you can, as in what are your major problems. | 01:31 |
| Bizzeh | Baughn: with the exception of bespoke hardware computers, which even excludes super computers like deap blue... computers require to much effort to do something on... even a simple boot loader and kernel takes some of the most horrible hacks in the world, to just run, and load | 01:31 |

| bobbob1016 | PiTT, That isn't specific. What is failing? Does it work without desktop effects? How are they connected, VGA or DVI? Are you using crossfire? I don't know about nvidia cards, I have a personal grudge against them since one burned out on me, same model burned out on two friends, and I missed out of months of Earth and Beyond, but someone else here or in #compiz should be able to help you. | 01:34 |

| norbi | Hello, hopefully I can ask this sort of a question in here. I am looking for a screen recording software. I used to use Fraps on a Windows based machine, but can't seem to find any for Linux. Any help will be appreciated. | 01:36 |
| nikin | Baughn: i see but something is filling my RAM .. and i want to know what it is | 01:36 |
| purpzey | Baughn: Will lame encode from OGG to MP3? | 01:36 |
| Ahadiel | norbi, I think "recordmydesktop" is in the repos. | 01:37 |
| Baughn | nikin: Um, yeah. Cache. This is a /good/ thing. | 01:37 |
| Baughn | nikin: Memory that's marked as "free" might as well be marked as "burning power with no benefit to you" | 01:37 |
| mneptok | !info recordmydesktop | 01:37 |
| ubottu | recordmydesktop (source: recordmydesktop): Captures audio-video data of a Linux desktop session. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.6-1 (hardy), package size 45 kB, installed size 136 kB | 01:37 |

| puff | Firefox crashed a little while ago. I restarted irefox, restored sessions, firefox started doing *something* that swamped my router and crashed it, then firefox dies. The default ubuntu firefox. | 01:37 |
| yao_ziyuan | Baughn: i started system monitor and killed a single process responsible for setting up new locales and the upgrader now continues. | 01:37 |
| nikin | Baughn: i see but there is no reason for such an amount of uffers and cache the servers load is technicaly zero | 01:37 |
| Baughn | nikin: Exactly | 01:38 |
| Blaqlight | so then does anyone know how to fix gnome so that it will load or where to go to find out why it won't load? | 01:38 |
| Baughn | nikin: Cache is what linux used memory for if it can't figure out something better to do with it | 01:38 |
| benjamin_ | hey, im new to ubuntu, and i was wondering if anyone ad any software theyd like to suggest to me | 01:38 |
| norbi | Ahadiel, Flannel: Thanks for that, I am specifically looking for a tool that will record a specific window, as opposed to the whole desktop. Any way I can narrow down my search within those apps that were suggested? | 01:38 |
| yao_ziyuan | Baughn: and the upgrader reported a message (which does not prevent it from continuing): The upgrade will continue but the 'locales' package may be in a not working state. Please consider submitting a bugreport about it. | 01:39 |
| Baughn | nikin: And it /will/ fill all of memory if you let things run long enough. This is /good/. It means any disk reads that have happened before will be memory reads instead. | 01:39 |
| nikin | Baughn: i understand but what is in that cache? | 01:39 |
| Baughn | nikin: Stuff linux read from disk earlier | 01:39 |
| Flannel | norbi: I'm not familiar with those apps personally. I'd check the wiki page, some might do just that (specific windows only) and that page may mention it | 01:39 |
| yao_ziyuan | Baughn: now the question is how do i manually install/setup the "locales" package? | 01:40 |
| nikin | Baughn: if i understand you right linux uses all free memory for disk cache? | 01:40 |
| Baughn | nikin: Yes | 01:40 |
| norbi | Flannel: Thanks a lot, I will look into it. Gave me a start anyways :) | 01:40 |
| nikin | Baughn: is there a way to flush that? | 01:40 |
| Baughn | nikin: Why would you want to? | 01:40 |
| nikin | Baughn: to see how much memory i get freed | 01:41 |
| strix | i just had an odd experience | 01:41 |
| Baughn | nikin: Um. Just count the "cache" tag in free as free memory. | 01:41 |
| Baughn | nikin: Cache /is/ free memory, effectively. It can be dropped on the floor in a heartbeat, since the same data is on disk it can just be read back in at need. | 01:41 |
| Baughn | nikin: Oh, and incidentally, any programs that still have an existence on disk run from cache. Remove the cache, and they'd have to read the executable back in. | 01:42 |
| Baughn | Well, the parts that aren'T dynamically linked anyhow | 01:42 |
| strix | my ubuntu box seemed alive, or rather the kernel was, but I could not log into a text console. It just hung. the X session, more or less was alive. i once got a terminal, but it locked up after i tried to look in /var/log. i shut down using sysrq-s/u/b and rebooted. it seems a little slow to boot, but otherwise it's okay. no sign in the logs. | 01:42 |
| nikin | Baughn: i understand that :) | 01:42 |
| nikin | but the full os with everything is around 700 MB including all data for now.. and i have 900 MB of memory used | 01:43 |
| Flannel | nikin: How do you figure 700mb? | 01:43 |
| nikin | Flannel df -h | 01:43 |
| Baughn | nikin: I doubt all of that 900MB is for cache | 01:44 |
| Baughn | nikin: Run free. See what is what. | 01:44 |

| CostaRicanQuaker | td123: amarok | 01:54 |
| JDStone | almost every time there is a new kernel, and after rebooting to it, my drive assignments change. For example, my software RAID drives will change from sdb and sdc to sda and sdb and my root drive will change to sdc and then back again at the next kernel update. | 01:54 |
| JDStone | why is this? | 01:54 |
| Corkster | amarok is great | 01:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | DeFirence Nope, you just need to wit for the right people to show up in those rooms | 01:54 |
| td123 | CostaRicanQuaker: type that in then | 01:54 |
| Corkster | even handles the ipod well | 01:55 |
| DeFirence | Jack_Sparrow, i have - for weeks | 01:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JDStone Sounds like you are mixing ide and sata drives | 01:55 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | td123: type in what? | 01:55 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | it says it wont play mp3s | 01:55 |

| gmachine24 | Any recommendations on which IPOD program to use with Ubuntu? | 01:55 |
| DeFirence | Jack_Sparrow, one night someone helped me for hours but we just cant figure out why its not working | 01:55 |
| td123 | CostaRicanQuaker: oh, you need the codecs then | 01:55 |
| Gnea | DeFirence: what routing script? | 01:55 |
| DeFirence | ive noticed :/ | 01:55 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | yes | 01:55 |
| chubs | gmachine24: amarok | 01:55 |
| gmachine24 | Sorry... any recommendations for a PODCAST program to use with Ubuntu | 01:56 |
| JDStone | Jack_Sparrow: yep, that's right | 01:56 |
| td123 | CostaRicanQuaker: search for mp3 codec in the add/remove or synaptic and install, and enjoy :D | 01:56 |
| jpastore | so azureus keeps knocking off my wifi...I've replaced my router, I've replaced my network card...I've blacklisted ipv6...any ideas why I would lose my wireless connection? it's also impacted by large file transfers | 01:56 |

| DeFirence | Gnea, a simple routing script i wrote to forward packets from a port to another ip via an IF | 01:56 |

| gmachine24 | chubs: cool. thanks. | 01:56 |
| chubs | no problem | 01:56 |
| td123 | CostaRicanQuaker: you mean search for the mp3 codec? | 01:56 |
| JDStone | alright, thanks, will do | 01:56 |
| JDStone | :) | 01:56 |
| JDStone | hmm, Jack_Sparrow any ideas on what I would search for | 01:57 |
| gmachine24 | have a good evening all | 01:57 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | td123: yes and install it | 01:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JDStone One sec... | 01:57 |
| douye | glitsj16: are those the header files and all ? | 01:57 |

| Jack_Sparrow | JDStone I put this into yahoo and got some good hits.. problems mixing ide and sata drives in ubuntu | 01:58 |
| JDStone | thank you | 01:58 |
| glitsj16 | douye: those and the linux-image-* packages yes | 01:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JDStone http://www.mepis.org/docs/en/index.php/Grub_with_IDE_and_SATA_Drives | 01:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JDStone It makes it quite clear | 01:59 |
| JDStone | but would that be a grub problem? | 01:59 |
| JDStone | the system boots just fine | 01:59 |
| glitsj16 | douye: launch a search in synaptic for the linux-image-xxx you want to remove and anything related that you can remove will show up in the filter box on the left | 02:00 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | td123: i installed the plugins and amarok still says it cant read it | 02:00 |
| douye | glitsj16: yeah im just searching for the numbers of the old kernels and removing their files | 02:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JDStone It is where I would start | 02:01 |
| Corkster | CostaRicanQuaker one way of resolving those issues quickly is by installing ubuntu-studio package | 02:01 |

| CostaRicanQuaker | ok so i am downloading this ubuntu studio thing | 02:14 |
| glitsj16 | douye: great :) .. and a smaller grub menu now ? | 02:14 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i should be able to open any mp3 files on ubuntu/kubuntu afterward right? | 02:15 |
| douye | glitsj16: yep, still some weird ones in it but atleast the linux one is alright | 02:15 |
| Flannel | CostaRicanQuaker: er... you're installing Ubuntu studio just to enable mp3 playback? | 02:15 |
| schasi | arvind_khadri: None of them worked | 02:15 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | yes...? or not? i just want to be able to play mp3s i'm on hardy and i can't play them for some reason | 02:16 |
| Corkster | flannel its the most bloat worthy way :) | 02:16 |
| douye | glitsj16: due to having a acer laptop it has a "back up" part on the drive which it sees, and there was another option windows xp i thought.. which i dont have installed xD | 02:16 |
| genii | Corkster: Heh | 02:16 |
| arvind_khadri | schasi, there is no need to follow that thread....just install apmd and you can do it | 02:16 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | is ubuntu studio a completely different distro or a different desktipo envrrionment and once it starts downloading | 02:16 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | how do i stop it | 02:16 |
| Flannel | CostaRicanQuaker: Thats a horrible reason to install Ubuntu Studio (nothing wrong with studio though) | 02:16 |
| radar1976 | .. | 02:16 |
| radar1976 | hello all | 02:17 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | Flannel: how do i stop it from downloading/installing, and how do i make ubuntu able to play mp3s? | 02:17 |
| Flannel | CostaRicanQuaker: Studio is sort of similar to the difference between ubuntu and kubuntu | 02:17 |
| glitsj16 | douye: i see .. i guess you can live with the acer one, if you don't have xp any longer you can always manually comment that out | 02:17 |
| arvind_khadri | schasi, sudo apt-get install apmd | 02:17 |
| Flannel | CostaRicanQuaker: Is it just downloading? then yeah, you can stop it. If its starting to install, its best not to | 02:17 |
| douye | glitsj16: guess i just gotta try out what it boots into, is it btw possible to change the order the options are in? | 02:17 |
| rafaelscj | I like Sound Juice. Does It rip mp3s? | 02:18 |
| mneptok | rafaelscj: with LAME installed, yes | 02:18 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | Flannel: how do i stop it¿? and before i do that, does that mean that after it's installed i can choose if i want to be on it, just the same way i choose if i want to be on xfce or kde or gnome at the begining of a session? | 02:18 |
| ivan_ | hello, i cant find my driver for my ati radeon x1200, abyone can tell me what to do please?? | 02:18 |
| glitsj16 | douye: yes you can change the order, look inside the /boot/grub/menu.lst, there's some comments on how that works | 02:18 |
| Flannel | CostaRicanQuaker: ctrl-c will stop (do only if downloading packages) | 02:18 |

| CostaRicanQuaker | IndyGunFreak: then how do i do it right? i don't like using adept, can someone give me jst the command to paste it on the shell.. to get the mp3 plugins that is | 02:21 |

| SeveredCross | CostaRicanQuaker: What Jack_Sparrow said. | 02:24 |
| Mr_Bad_News | how do i list it Jack_Sparrow | 02:24 |
| Flannel | douye: That means your vista option is inside of the ### debian automagic lines, right? | 02:24 |
| * IndyGunFreak said it way before Jack_Sparrow :) | 02:25 | |
| Mr_Bad_News | 02:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless LAN 2100 3B Mini PCI Adapter (rev 04) | 02:25 |
| douye | flannel: uhm, yeah.. its the 2nd now in the list | 02:25 |
| Mr_Bad_News | does that help Jack_Sparrow ? | 02:25 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | Corkster: so what do i do? | 02:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mr_Bad_News sudo lshw or lspci or if you do "sudo lshw -C network" in a terminal it will show the networking card/chipset | 02:25 |
| Flannel | Administrator_: for chatting, please go to #ubuntu-offtopic, this is for support. Thanks | 02:25 |
| Mr_Bad_News | dmesg | tail never outputs anything usefel | 02:25 |
| * CostaRicanQuaker closes adept | 02:25 | |
| * Corkster senses troll | 02:25 | |
| Flannel | douye: that won't work. You *cannot* have anything else in between those two lines (it'll get erased) | 02:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mr_Bad_News Fine, now try forming a complete question with that info | 02:26 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | ubuntu-restricted-extras is already the newest version | 02:26 |
| douye | flannel: so i cant make vista be the 2nd option in the grub list? :/ | 02:26 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | ^then why won't it play? | 02:26 |
| Mr_Bad_News | i already asked my question , my wireless card keeps quitting after 40 -60 minutes whats wrong and how to i fix it | 02:26 |
| Flannel | douye: Not really, no. | 02:26 |
| glitsj16 | douye: only if you leave the one ubuntu kernel | 02:27 |
| bj_ | throwing this out for all - I have a fresh install of ubuntu and I also have on another drive my old ubuntu info (old computer died) I am wanting to copy "all" of my settings and info over, I copied my /home/(username)/ anything else? wheres firefox info kept? | 02:27 |
| Flannel | glitsj16: Even choosing to only display one kernel version will leave it third (after recovery console) | 02:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mr_Bad_News Fine now put the two together, your question and your hardware info.. all on one line.. and while waiting, do a little research on your own | 02:27 |
| notwist | what are you guys talking about, vista cant be first place in grub? :S | 02:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | notwist sure it can | 02:27 |
| Flannel | bj_: Everything personal is in your homedir | 02:27 |
| glitsj16 | Flannel: true, didn't thin of that one .. sorry | 02:28 |
| Flannel | notwist: It can, just not second. Manually added things can be before and after the generated ones, but not in between | 02:28 |

| Flannel | douye: You can have it temporarily as the second option, except every time you get a new kernel, you'll need to re-do it. | 02:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mr_Bad_News much better | 02:29 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | help: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/28371/ | 02:29 |

| douye | flannel: can i do this?: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28372/ | 02:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | CostaRicanQuaker: you didn't run sudo apt-get update after adding medibuntu... so it hadn't loaded the new repository | 02:31 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !lamp | 02:31 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 02:31 |
| zachera | Jack_Sparrow: How? | 02:31 |
| Flannel | bj_: Did you copy all the files? or just the non-hidden ones? | 02:31 |
| zelrikriando | hello | 02:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | zachera look up | 02:31 |
| bj_ | flannel - maybe thats my problem, how do i copy the hidden ones? | 02:32 |
| Flannel | douye: paste the whole file | 02:32 |
| Flannel | bj_: In nautilus, ctrl-H will show hidden files/folders | 02:32 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | question: is there a flash editor for linux available on ubuntu that is equal or better as window' programs? | 02:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CostaRicanQuaker no | 02:32 |
| Mr_Bad_News | CostaRicanQuaker, open synaptic package manager > settings > repositories and check all the boxes under the software tab | 02:32 |
| douye | flannel: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28373/ | 02:33 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | Mr_Bad_News: do i wait for the terminal to finish downloading? last command was sudo apt-get install w32codecs and it's currently doing htat now | 02:33 |
| bj_ | flannel - thank you, ill try that now | 02:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CostaRicanQuaker yes, wait | 02:33 |

| Inazad | someone knows the loosing pounds ways great ? | 02:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !ot > Inazad | 02:34 |
| Mr_Bad_News | and that should do it although you might need to install some of the codecs i sent you in pm | 02:34 |
| ubottu | Inazad, please see my private message | 02:34 |
| Flannel | douye: You can do that, except the next time you install a kernel update, you'll need to recopy the vista one up to under the ubuntu one. | 02:34 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | Jack_Sparrow: why is there no flash editor better than those in windows? that question comes from someone else who i was trynig to convince to switch to ubuntu today | 02:34 |
| douye | flannel: yeah okay, doesnt matter that much tbh.. used to that i have to do a few things everytime i need to update the kernel | 02:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | CostaRicanQuaker It isnt a ubuntu support question.. try offtopic of ##Flash | 02:35 |
| notwist | douye: the most logical thing would be to put vista as number 1 and if you want linux as the default boot just put "2" as the default. why do you have to have vista on second place? | 02:35 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | Mr_Bad_News: it finished downloading, i just closed the terminal, what do i do now? run adept? | 02:35 |
| XenThraL | anyone know what could be causing me to have segmentation faults in all my opengl programs? | 02:35 |
| XenThraL | everything was working fine until about 2 days ago | 02:35 |
| douye | notwist: uhm... just have to change less stuff as i want ubuntu as default boot ? | 02:35 |
| Mr_Bad_News | CostaRicanQuaker, open terminal back up and sudo apt-get install all the codecs i pm'ed you | 02:35 |
| Mr_Bad_News | - the w32codecs you already installed of course | 02:36 |
| notwist | douye: did you read what I said? why not have ubuntu has place 2 and default boot? | 02:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Back to my dinner.. Flannel pm me if needed. | 02:36 |
| Mr_Bad_News | that should get you all audio and video playback working | 02:36 |
| douye | notwist: i'll have to change the default boot number.. and now it stays the same? so why bother to do more changes then needed.... | 02:36 |
| notwist | douye: it's one number! jesus christ | 02:37 |
| nixn00b1 | hi | 02:37 |
| douye | notwist: i know its not much of a difference but im always "why do more if you dont need to do it" | 02:37 |
| notwist | douye: what's the most logical, set it up so that it will be OK permanently or set it up so you have to fix it when you get a kernel update? | 02:37 |
| nixn00b1 | i installed ubuntu on my macbook and the mouse is going crazy | 02:37 |
| nixn00b1 | I used a config off of unbutu/macbook but its still an issue... any idea | 02:38 |
| notwist | douye: you're acting irrational and im very annoyed by that, I'm sorry if I'm being rude | 02:38 |
| superfirelord42 | nixn00b1, like randomly moving, or moving alot for a small movement of hte mouse... | 02:38 |
| douye | notwist: ah well didnt know i wouldnt have to change it if i put it on first place.. | 02:38 |
| douye | notwist: in that case its indeed better to put it on first place as in the end it will require less changes | 02:38 |
| notwist | douye: 1) put vista first 2) put ubuntu 2:nd 3) choose 2:nd as default boot | 02:39 |
| notwist | douye: if you don't do that it will fuck up when you install a new kernel and you'll have to reconfig the default boot again | 02:39 |
| nixn00b1 | superfirelord42: its moving back and forth and very hard to control | 02:39 |
| nixn00b1 | i got a usb mouse now thats how im able to work | 02:39 |
| bobertdos | I just want people's opnions. How reliable is Ubuntu as a DHCP server? My hope would be, "very much so" :D | 02:39 |
| douye | notwist: btw default was on 0, so shouldnt it be 1 then for the 2nd option ? | 02:39 |
| superfirelord42 | nixn00b1, so basicly, the mouse pad is reacting to much to movement? | 02:39 |
| notwist | douye: i dont think so. 0 just means "theres no default" | 02:39 |
| notwist | douye: so in this case 0 is basically the same as 1 because when you have 0 it starts at position 1 | 02:40 |

| icesword | Mr_Bad_News, what is that | 02:41 |
| Mr_Bad_News | nothing wrong window sorry | 02:41 |
| notwist | douye: renaming "windows vista" to "WUNDUWS VUSTUH" etc | 02:41 |
| FarmCretin | arvind_khadri: not the "dist-upgrade"? | 02:41 |
| Mr_Bad_News | its a pretty cool video though icesword | 02:42 |
| douye | notwist: btw.. does the grub or something try to auto login to vista? as since i installed ubuntu i always get the message when it loads vista that i gave a wrong password o.0 | 02:42 |
| AcIk | hi...i having problem with my wireless..i already install ndiswrapper and it load at startup but..when i check in terminal..just found eth0 only..how to fix it?why wireless atheros not support in kardy? | 02:42 |
| notwist | FarmCretin: "update" gets the new lists of packets. "dist-upgrade" actually downloads and installs | 02:42 |
| AcIk | *hardy | 02:42 |
| notwist | FarmCretin: first to update then dist-upgrade | 02:42 |
| arvind_khadri | FarmCretin, that will upgrade your distribution!!! | 02:42 |
| notwist | douye: no, it does not | 02:42 |
| Flannel | arvind_khadri: no it wont | 02:42 |
| chriswr | how do i check my glib version? | 02:43 |
| arvind_khadri | Flannel, cool i didnt know that .... | 02:43 |
| notwist | douye: it's possible you just forgot it or mistyped it | 02:43 |
| douye | notwist: hmm weird then, guess it must be some setting in vista itself then altho i havent changed anything for that in there xD | 02:43 |
| Flannel | arvind_khadri: hmm, it might. depending on your definition of "upgrade distribution" | 02:43 |
| DarkAudit | isn't dist-upgrade for something like going from gutsy to Hardy? | 02:43 |
| Flannel | DarkAudit: No | 02:43 |
| notwist | arvind_khadri: "update" gets the LIST of packets. it doesn't do ANYTHING else. | 02:43 |
| Flannel | DarkAudit: It can be used as such, but isn't its only/primary purpose | 02:43 |
| notwist | DarkAudit: dist-upgrade downloads and installs. update just refreshes the lists. | 02:44 |
| ivan_ | hello, how do i identify what keyboard i have in my toshiba 215? | 02:44 |
| douye | notwist: no.. when i boot vista it just tries to auto login somehow.. but as i've got a password set it says its the wrong pass.. i dont want it to auto boot anyhow so its no big deal | 02:44 |
| arvind_khadri | notwist, Flannel, see :) am sure... sudo apt-get dist-upgrade is related to the distro upgradation | 02:44 |
| DarkAudit | Flannel: so what's the difference between apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade (assuming I've already done apt-get update) | 02:44 |
| hurricaneharry | apt-get update | 02:44 |
| hurricaneharry | apt-get upgrade | 02:44 |
| hurricaneharry | should be the definite sequence. | 02:44 |
| notwist | arvind_khadri: bottom line -----------> "sudo apt-get update" DOES NOT UPDATE YOUR PACKETS WHAT SO EVER | 02:44 |
| Flannel | DarkAudit, arvind_khadri, "upgrade" will give you the newest package versions. "dist-upgrade" will install the newest package versions and bring in any new depends that are needed. "upgrade" can have packages held back, "dist-upgrade" won't (except for things that are broken) | 02:45 |

| IndyGunFreak | just use restricted driver, install nvidia-settings, and set up dual screens there. | 02:51 |

| Lions\Spawn | I've only got sound on one side, how can I fix this? | 02:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | XenThraL and opengl segfaults makes one think the driver is the problem | 02:52 |

| XenThraL | then I went a little crazy and just killed any nvidia files from my root | 02:52 |
| XenThraL | and then reinstalled the drivers | 02:53 |
| XenThraL | problem still persists | 02:53 |

| btfx | Guys, my ndiswrapper interfaces did not connect properly, how do I /release or /renew with ifconfig? | 02:53 |
| XenThraL | it just wasn't there before at all, and I'm starting to suspect it coincided with the .19 kernel | 02:53 |
| OpenMindDJ | notwist: I tried the whole creating a sym link to 10-autohint.conf and that didnt seem to do much | 02:53 |
| notwist | OpenMindDJ: sounds wierd that it only happens in FF3 | 02:54 |
| Lions\Spawn | I've only got sound on one chennel through the jack output, how can I fix this? | 02:54 |
| notwist | weird* | 02:54 |
| OpenMindDJ | actually this is not a vid card issue because I have another computer here with an intel card and FF looks just as bad | 02:54 |
| OpenMindDJ | notwist: doesn't FF3 have known bugs with font rendering? | 02:54 |
| btfx | Lions\Spawn: You did check the equalizer... | 02:54 |
| === maco_ is now known as maco | ||
| btfx | right? | 02:54 |
| Lions\Spawn | yea, both chans are set to the same level | 02:54 |
| OpenMindDJ | notwist: all the text on IRC looks good :) | 02:54 |
| IndyGunFreak | Lions\Spawn: i fixed it by switching from pulse audio back to alsamixer..... i had lots of issues like that w/ Pulse... YMMV | 02:54 |
| btfx | Lions\Spawn: =\ Sorry man... | 02:55 |
| notwist | OpenMindDJ: sudo apt-get install lynx ;) | 02:55 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, so it works with everything but wine? | 02:55 |
| Lions\Spawn | I am using the alsamixer IndyGunFreak | 02:55 |
| Lions\Spawn | worked just a few days ago | 02:55 |
| IndyGunFreak | hmm, strange, haven't had that prob w/ alsamixer | 02:55 |
| _xyz | superfirelord42: yes | 02:55 |
| OpenMindDJ | notwist: :) | 02:55 |
| _xyz | superfirelord42: when I try to run 'Test Sound' in the audio tab, it returns an error, saying 'Audio test failed!'. that's why i want the error's output in the terminal | 02:56 |
| OpenMindDJ | notwist: I have a new vid card (GeForce 6200 AGP) on order...maybe DVI will help :/ | 02:56 |
| AcIk | still working with my wireless..Headache!! | 02:56 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, it isnt in the terminel when you do that? | 02:56 |
| _xyz | superfirelord42: well someone on ubuntu forums told me to run it from the terminal and get the output but i guess it cant be done. do you have any ideas? | 02:57 |
| zro | OpenMindDJ: u have msttcorefonts ? | 02:57 |
| notwist | OpenMindDJ: i doubt it :P | 02:57 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, i think he ment goto a terminal, and just run winecfg... it should automaticly output all errors and fixmes | 02:58 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: i do as this was installed with the bad evil scary restricted packages | 02:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | _xyz /join #alsa | 02:58 |
| _xyz | superfirelord42: as in, 'sudo winecfg'? i did that, all it does is launch the GUI winecfg and outputs nothing to the terminal | 02:58 |
| _xyz | ok | 02:58 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, no, not sudo, wine is not a sudo app | 02:58 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, wine should not be run as root | 02:59 |
| _xyz | well whatever, just winecfg | 02:59 |
| _xyz | ohhhh | 02:59 |
| _xyz | still no output | 02:59 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, major thing... by running it as root, you make him owner of .wine... and put your computer at risk... | 02:59 |
| _xyz | i make 'him' owner of .wine? | 02:59 |
| zro | OpenMindDJ: did u post a screen shot? What are yr fonts set as ? ( System > Pref > Appearance > font tab ) ? | 03:00 |
| superfirelord42 | yeah.... when you run wine as root | 03:00 |
| _xyz | well what do you mean 'run'. i never really 'run' it except for winecfg which launches just fine w/o root | 03:00 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, run winecfg in hte terminal, and then try the sound test, see if it outputs anything | 03:01 |
| _xyz | nada | 03:01 |
| _xyz | no output | 03:01 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, hold on, im getting the command | 03:01 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: mostly sans 10 with LCD smoothing and 96 dpi, full hint, order is RGB | 03:02 |
| zro | same in FF pref? | 03:02 |
| zro | OpenMindDJ: (edit > pref > content tab > advanced button) | 03:03 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: western, serif 16, mono 12 allow pages to choose their font | 03:04 |
| chupy | i put a black them for my ubuntu but in oppen office the word processor is also black what can i do | 03:04 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: its notall web pages either...yahoo.com is especially annoying though | 03:05 |
| superfirelord42 | _xyz, WINEDEBUG=warn+all winecfg | 03:05 |
| _xyz | alright i'll try that, thanks | 03:05 |
| zro | really... | 03:06 |
| zro | hmmm | 03:06 |
| zro | can u post a screen shot to imageshack or something? | 03:06 |

| arvind_khadri | super-6-1, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 03:07 |
| super-6-1 | thanks | 03:07 |
| XenThraL | screw it | 03:07 |
| XenThraL | time to nuke the computer | 03:07 |
| arvind_khadri | super-6-1, you wanted to start X right?? | 03:07 |
| XenThraL | thanks for the help anyways | 03:07 |
| zro | OpenMindDJ: you have you have doen this right? sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts | 03:07 |
| pip | I have a really stupid question. | 03:07 |
| russianzilla | Hey, is anyone here familiar with using an Xbox 360 wired controller with Hardy? | 03:08 |
| arvind_khadri | pip, ask | 03:08 |
| btfx | russianzilla: not likely =\ | 03:08 |
| superfirelord42 | pip, whatever it is, i have heard worse | 03:08 |
| zelrikriando | pip, there is no stupid question, only stupid people | 03:08 |
| [TiZ] | Hi there, guys. Unfortunately, I have another tough one for you all. I've installed drivers for my Sony EyeToy, and I want to use it as a microphone. If I set the input device in Audacity to OSS: /dev/dsp1, it works great. But I use ALSA to play sound throughout the system. How would I go about setting this device as my default input device, AND THEN, setting Wine up to use it as well? | 03:08 |
| bastid_raZor | super-6-1; or maybe you wanted to edit the xorg.conf file? sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:08 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: I think I just figured something out...it could be the KVM switch | 03:08 |
| btfx | poor pip.. | 03:08 |
| russianzilla | btfx: Not likely it'll work? | 03:08 |
| === Jippen is now known as jippen_ | ||
| pip | I've just started on ubuntu, but for some reason, I can't do shit with it, because it says I'm not the owner. | 03:08 |
| zro | OpenMindDJ: ha! | 03:08 |
| === jippen_ is now known as jippen__ | ||
| russianzilla | It's very weird, I used a guide on the Ubuntu wiki. | 03:08 |
| pip | (that was worded really badly, I'm sorry) | 03:08 |
| lwizardl | can someone help me with transcoding a mkv into another file | 03:08 |
| btfx | russianzilla: Not likely someone here has done it | 03:08 |
| arvind_khadri | bastid_raZor, maybe people should be more specific :) | 03:08 |
| btfx | oh | 03:08 |
| russianzilla | Which worked the first time, but after I unplugged it once I plugged it in again it stopped working. | 03:08 |
| pip | but since I'm not the " owner" I can't install anything | 03:08 |
| === jippen__ is now known as jippen | ||
| btfx | russianzilla: I may be wrong... | 03:09 |
| super-6-1 | I mean how do i configure the xorg | 03:09 |
| zro | ... i love when im barking up a totally wrong tree.. | 03:09 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: when flipping back and forth between computers the video goes a little haywire | 03:09 |
| soldats | pip: you need to use sudo | 03:09 |
| bastid_raZor | arvind_khadri; getting into xorg can be translated in many ways. | 03:09 |
| Pici | !sudo | pip | 03:09 |
| ubottu | pip: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 03:09 |
| btfx | russianzilla: how many times did you reboot =P | 03:09 |
| zelrikriando | pip, that sounds backwards, you didnt get to choose a password? | 03:09 |
| russianzilla | So far once. | 03:09 |
| btfx | hehheh | 03:09 |
| [TiZ] | super-6-1, use "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" in a terminal or run box | 03:09 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: right now, when i type i hear a beep for every letter i press...what the heck did i just do now!!! | 03:09 |
| arvind_khadri | bastid_raZor, yeah thats why after answering him i thought what did he mean :) | 03:09 |
| pip | I chose a password for my user account, but it says my user is not the owner | 03:09 |
| russianzilla | I tried to redo the guide a few times but it didn't get me anywhere. | 03:09 |
| * pip looks up sudo stuff | 03:09 | |
| russianzilla | Here's something more general then. | 03:09 |
| btfx | sorry, I have no idea really =\ | 03:09 |
| bastid_raZor | arvind_khadri; heh, i thought the same thing after reading your response. | 03:09 |
| superfirelord42 | pip, when you use the console, or when you open apps such as synaptic? | 03:10 |
| russianzilla | I found a different guide, but it says I need to make sure that the old module I was using for the controller has been removed. | 03:10 |
| zro | OpenMindDJ: ee.... thats a weird one. | 03:10 |
| pip | when I use the console | 03:10 |
| btfx | ok | 03:10 |
| zro | Ok,... I got a question, im uploading an inordinate amount of data to a server (using scp). i didnt use the l flag or anything,... the files are going one by one up to the server @ 430KB/s or there abouts... i then started 2 more "scp -Cr " sessions and they are all going @ 430KB/s .... where would one suppose this magical bottle neck is? If I can transfer 3 @ 430, shouldn't one be able to go @ 1290? | 03:10 |
| superfirelord42 | pip, sudo then... | 03:10 |
| arvind_khadri | bastid_raZor, :) crazy people ... | 03:10 |
| russianzilla | I went into the joystick kernel modules and deleted the xpad file, so does that mean it's been unloaded then? | 03:10 |
| pip | thanks | 03:10 |
| superfirelord42 | pip, it asks for a password, you use your own... | 03:10 |
| btfx | russianzilla: AFAIK yes | 03:10 |
| arvind_khadri | pip, one way around this is use the recovery mode and then adduser <username> admin | 03:10 |
| btfx | again, I may be wrong as hell | 03:10 |
| btfx | =\ | 03:10 |
| russianzilla | Alright, because modprobe -r hangs whenever I use it. | 03:10 |
| pip | recovery mode is way beyond my skills. | 03:11 |
| OpenMindDJ | zro: by the way, pressing the auto button on the monitor seems to clear up the fonts...for some reason this issue was only noticible in FF and well, i read alot of junk about FF3 with fonts.... | 03:11 |
| OpenMindDJ | beep beep beep | 03:11 |
| OpenMindDJ | brb | 03:11 |
| pip | I've only just installed last night | 03:11 |
| superfirelord42 | arvind_khadri, he didnt know how... i think it took a password... let him try sudo.... | 03:11 |
| pip | and i'm stumbling about trying to figure it all out on a horrid dialup connection | 03:11 |

| CrocoJet | the problem "hdparm" that damage harddisk, is fixed in ubuntu 8.04 ? | 03:17 |

| Guest101 | Today, I have attempted to install Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop editon. I have burnt the disc myself, and I have checked, it has no errors. It all goes fine until the partitioning part . Here, I choose the the option where you can drag along the amount of space you want. I allow Ubunto 12gb (i have 100gb free). I press next and it says 0% for about 30 secs. and then a little box comes titiled... | 03:17 |
| Guest101 | ..."Re-size operation failure", witht he message, "An error has occured while writing changes to the storage devices. The re-size has been aborted.". From then it only gives me the other two options of using all the space available and manual... I dont know what to do in manual and I want to dual boot.. Please help, and I know it is not the disc. | 03:17 |
| lwizardl | glitsj16, i just did apt-get install | 03:17 |

| superfirelord42 | Guest101, in a terminal, type mount | 03:18 |
| [TiZ] | Guest101, I find that BootIt NG is actually a really, really good partitioning tool. Just burn it to a CD (don't bother installing it), and do your partition work from the CD. | 03:18 |
| martosurf | bobertdos: hi and tnx 4 replying -- well you'll see, i actually need to manually delete a them so i need to know where those files lies =D | 03:18 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, please pastebin the output | 03:18 |
| dr_Willis | Guest101, if resizign a ntfs partition, you may have to defrag/scandisk it beforhand so gparted can resize it.. if using vista. Use vista to resize the partition. it will do it much faster then gparted. | 03:18 |
| chriswr | arvind_khadri: that worked to show them but they still appear as offline | 03:19 |

| [TiZ] | Guest101, this is what you want to do. Get the partitions all set up the way you want from BootIt NG's CD. And then, use the Ubuntu install CD, and pick the partition you want Ubuntu on. | 03:21 |

| glitsj16 | lwizardl: okay, you will have the needed ffmpeg in that case to go over the instructions on how to proceed at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r19571065-SOLVED-ffmpeg-mkv-to-xvidac3 | 03:23 |
| pip | sorry | 03:23 |
| zelrikriando | pip, watch your language around here | 03:23 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, it runs OK, just that it asks me everytime | 03:23 |
| pip | i *messed* up somewhere | 03:23 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, set it as executable | 03:23 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, no problem, did you get to the terminal? | 03:23 |
| l815 | is preload bad to use? on the comments of this page (http://news.softpedia.com/news/Optimize-Ubuntu-8-04-for-Speed-86405.shtml), someone said it was | 03:23 |
| Guest101 | No :/ | 03:24 |
| bobertdos | pip: Heh, well that's what we try to do, help clean up botched jobs. It's easy enough to do in Ubuntu. | 03:24 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, is it a script??? | 03:24 |
| dr_Willis | jeeves_, simple way may be to use 'sing' in a script. its a programable ping variant. | 03:24 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, run has got several meanings please be clear... | 03:24 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, on hte top left-hand corner, on that menu, under accessories, look for terminal | 03:24 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, when it opens, type in exactly... sudo mount | 03:24 |
| Yazan` | i have installed my video card drivers, and i need to try and change the brightness and contrast of the screen like in windows...how can i do that? | 03:24 |
| Guest101 | superfirelord42... to do that I will have to leave windows though.. Im currently in windows.. | 03:25 |
| jeeves_ | dr_Willis, hummm, my ISP "claims" that all my latency, poor cnnections, and other "downtime" is my server (ie., me not using their "hosted" services), and I'd love to shove it back in their face | 03:25 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, hold on.... | 03:25 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, ok, it's a program i downloaded, i created a shortcut on my desktop for it ... everytime i try to click the shortcut, it asks me what i want to do... i choose RUN and it works ... | 03:25 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, do you have another computer you can do irc on? | 03:25 |
| owner | any one on here done netboot b4 | 03:25 |
| lwizardl | glitsj16, yeah but that is for xvid, i want to keep it HD and leave it as either the file types I need to be able to make it into a HD-DVD mini disc (.TS .MPG or M2TS) | 03:25 |
| Guest101 | superfirelord42... no :/ | 03:25 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, my question is: is there a way to set the shorcut to choose RUN all the time without asking me? | 03:25 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, that way some people online can help you as you work with it if you encounter errors? | 03:25 |
| pip | I'm following these instructions: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Multimedia-Codecs-in-Linux-39555.shtml and at the cp all-2006blahblahblah command, I get " missing destination file operand after all-20061022blahblah | 03:25 |
| dr_Willis | jeeves_, good luck proving any of that.. and you will need a Mirical to get the ISPs to actually do anything if you did prove it.. :( | 03:25 |
| superfirelord42 | Guest101, unfortunatly I must go offline [TiZ] are you still there? | 03:26 |
| [TiZ] | I'm here. | 03:26 |
| [TiZ] | I guess it's lucky I have my own problem, hmm. | 03:26 |
| dr_Willis | jeeves_, but i guess ya could check out 'sing' anyway - its an overlooked tool :) | 03:26 |
| superfirelord42 | [TiZ], can you help Guest101 i must go offline | 03:26 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, ok you need it to sym link it with the executable frm where you created the shortcut | 03:26 |
| jeeves_ | dr_Willis, well, I know the owner personally, and he figures he dosn't have to be afraid of me. He owes me $$ anyways, so I took hosting in leu of payment | 03:26 |
| [TiZ] | I'll help out and then I'm going to start asking about my own stuff again. | 03:26 |
| tma | how do i do that? | 03:26 |
| owner | hey how are you doing | 03:26 |
| superfirelord42 | [TiZ], what where you having trouble with? | 03:26 |
| pip | ooh i forgot the space. | 03:27 |
| [TiZ] | Guest101, where do you stand right now? | 03:27 |
| superfirelord42 | hey owner... | 03:27 |
| xborgy | tma: most things exec are /usr/share/bin look in there and make a shortcutt from one of those. | 03:27 |
| [TiZ] | Here, I'll go ahead and c/p it real quick. | 03:27 |
| jpastore | sorry for the repeat msg but I lost network again...so azureus keeps knocking off my wifi...I've replaced my router, I've replaced my network card...I've blacklisted ipv6...any ideas why I would lose my wireless connection? it's also impacted by large file transfers | 03:27 |
| [TiZ] | Hi there, guys. Unfortunately, I have another tough one for you all. I've installed drivers for my Sony EyeToy, and I want to use it as a microphone. If I set the input device in Audacity to OSS: /dev/dsp1, it works great. But I use ALSA to play sound throughout the system. How would I go about setting this device as my default input device, AND THEN, setting Wine up to use it as well? | 03:27 |
| jeeves_ | dr_Willis, so if I can have a script run every 5 mins or so to ping a big name domain, then record the latency, etc and log it, then I can prove it | 03:27 |
| owner | idid the net boot | 03:27 |
| bobertdos | pip: I don't think I was here when you were explaining your original problem, but is there a reason you're using these as opposed to everything available in the repos? | 03:27 |
| Guest101 | [TiZ], so I should install a partition with Bootit first, then go through the linux disc? | 03:27 |
| Jippen | Jeeves: Have you tried running a bandwith/response/uptime monitor on the box? Charting the response times of pings from home to the box, vs home to thier page, 1 per minute for a day could give some backing to your argument. | 03:27 |
| owner | now iam stuck in the menu | 03:27 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, im guessing you didnt manage to get ubuntu installed... | 03:27 |
| [TiZ] | Wrong, Guest101. Do NOT install BootIt NG. | 03:27 |
| glitsj16 | lwizardl: hang on, i'll check if winFF offers that option | 03:27 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, sudo ln -s /path/to/app /path/to/executable | 03:27 |
| Guest101 | Oh.. ok [TiZ] | 03:27 |
| jeeves_ | dr_Willis, any sudgestions on a syntax for it? | 03:27 |
| [TiZ] | Download it, burn it to a CD or floppy drive | 03:28 |
| superfirelord42 | [TiZ], i could have sworn i saw a google tut for that once.. a while back... but i have no knowledge in the area... | 03:28 |
| lwizardl | glitsj16, on my winff i don't have them | 03:28 |
| Yazan` | guys, when you want to configure the brightness/contrast of your screen, how do you do it? | 03:28 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, what is the menu? | 03:28 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, let me try it | 03:28 |
| [TiZ] | And then run it from the CD, and use its partitioning tool | 03:28 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, i feel it would work... lets try | 03:28 |
| bastid_raZor | jpastore; possibly try something other than azurues? transmission ktorrent deluge are all great *nix native applications that don't use java | 03:28 |
| [TiZ] | After you're done partitioning, you can choose which partition to install Ubuntu on from the installer. | 03:28 |
| owner | the install main menu | 03:28 |
| styfle | hello | 03:28 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, what options do you have... and are you using hte floppy method? | 03:28 |
| Wolvenhaven | dont listen to styfle, he's a mean person | 03:28 |
| owner | netboot | 03:28 |
| Yazan` | guys, when you want to configure the brightness/contrast of your screen, how do you do | 03:28 |
| owner | it workeked | 03:29 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, IT WORKED!! what was making it not work? | 03:29 |
| [TiZ] | Yazan`, is it a laptop screen, or just a normal monitor? | 03:29 |
| owner | its now asking me for the mirror site | 03:29 |
| jpastore | bastid_raZor, it happens during big file transfers as well...like downloading iso's | 03:29 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, hold on... | 03:29 |
| glitsj16 | lwizardl: just found that out myself .. seems more complex than i thought .. sorry to be of no help whatsoever | 03:29 |
| dr_Willis | jeeves_, nope. I recall using it a year or so ago to 'test' some issues over a long time. | 03:29 |
| owner | ok | 03:29 |
| Guest101 | [TiZ], is there a partiton program I dont have to burn to disc to use? Because surely that would be easier? | 03:29 |
| lwizardl | glitsj16, no preoblem atleast you tried :) | 03:29 |
| Yazan` | TiZ: it's a monitor | 03:29 |
| [TiZ] | Guest101, That's what I'm trying to recommend to you. Have you not been listening? | 03:30 |
| styfle | can someone help me out with a wireless adapter??? | 03:30 |
| jeeves_ | dr_Willis, fun. I'll have a look. thanks. | 03:30 |
| [TiZ] | BootIt NG can be run FROM THE CD to do partitioning. | 03:30 |
| bazhang | Guest101, just use gparted in the installer disk no need for bootit ng (never heard of it and not recommended here) | 03:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | styfle: depends on the adapter | 03:30 |
| bastid_raZor | jpastore; how are you downloading them? azurues? | 03:30 |
| Yazan` | TiZ: i want to use the configuration like in windows, where i change brightness/contrast | 03:30 |
| [TiZ] | You download it, and run a program that burns it to a cd or makes a floppy disk | 03:30 |
| pip | okay. I need point and click | 03:30 |
| Guest101 | [TiZ] oh, ok... | 03:30 |
| jpastore | bastid_raZor, no from website's like trixbox | 03:30 |
| bazhang | [TiZ], gparted is a much better option here | 03:30 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, what was it again, asking for a mirror? | 03:31 |
| owner | yeah | 03:31 |
| Guest101 | bazhang, where do I get gparted from? | 03:31 |
| [TiZ] | Sorry, Yazan`. I've never configured a monitor that way from in Windows. Can't you just use the monitor controls? | 03:31 |
| styfle | indygunfreak: i have a WPC54G Ver2 and it wont let me connect to a WEP 64 hex connection | 03:31 |
| owner | on the main install menu | 03:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | styfle: can you see the network? | 03:31 |
| [TiZ] | bazhang, why is that? gparted does not work nearly as well as BootIt NG has, at least for me. | 03:31 |
| bazhang | Guest101, it is on the live cd; also you can use the manual partitioning scheme in the installer process | 03:31 |
| Flannel | pip: that's fine. | 03:31 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, ok, i just did that ... here is what i get when i dbl click the link "Do you want to run "Link to apb, or display its contents?" | 03:31 |

| superfirelord42 | owner, i thought you said you got the netboot to work? | 03:33 |
| Jippen | jeeves> Bash script? If you are saving the files with a timestamp in the filename, you can do it with a little math | 03:33 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, however you did it last time.. hehe... | 03:34 |
| owner | yeah | 03:34 |
| [TiZ] | So I will resume my inquiry on my own dilemma now. | 03:34 |
| styfle | indygunfreak: do you know someone who can help? i am a compete noob with linux | 03:34 |
| bazhang | [TiZ], you may wish to read the ubuntuguide or ubuntu wiki for more info on this; bootit ng is not on the list there. | 03:34 |

| tma | xborgy, i wanted to get rid of the prompt and RUN automaticly ... is it possible? | 03:35 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, i am going to go eat... do the netboot how you got it work lastime, then try the mirror http://mirror.its.uidaho.edu/pub/ubuntu/ | 03:35 |

| xborgy | tma: yes its very easy but what is the app? | 03:35 |
| bazhang | Guest101, you are using gparted on mounted partitions? or going through a live cd environment to do so | 03:35 |

| Bubalooshi | Or do I need it? | 03:37 |
| arooni | is there a dyndns auto updater for ubuntu hardy? | 03:37 |
| bazhang | Guest101, that would be the reason then; do you have the ubuntu live cd? or is this through wubi | 03:37 |
| xborgy | tma: right mouse click your desktop and choose create link | 03:37 |
| Guest101 | bazhang... the cd i am using is a burnt iso from the ubuntu site.. not wubbi | 03:37 |
| Jippen | well, you still ACTUALLY need it to boot the system, so I would recommend setting the timeout to, say, 1 second, rather than removing it completely | 03:37 |
| [TiZ] | I've installed drivers for my Sony EyeToy, and I want to use it as a microphone. If I set the input device in Audacity to "OSS: /dev/dsp1", it works great. I have to use that option, as ALSA's input device doesn't work, and neither does "USB Audio" from sound properties. But I use ALSA to play sound throughout the system. How would I go about setting "OSS: /dev/dsp1" as my default input device, AND THEN, setting Wine up to use it as well? | 03:38 |
| tma | xborgy, link is there already | 03:38 |
| tma | xborgy, now what? | 03:38 |
| xborgy | tma: run it | 03:38 |

| tma | xborgy, ok, prompt again | 03:38 |
| bazhang | Guest101, you run the installer, then get to the guided partitioning section and then it fails? | 03:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bubalooshi: hit esc before the timer runs out? | 03:39 |
| tma | xborgy, i click run and it runs the app | 03:39 |
| IndyGunFreak | that will bring up your grub menu | 03:39 |
| Guest101 | bazhang, yes | 03:39 |
| xborgy | tma: yes i know because you're running something that isnt even installed into correct folders to make it run automaticly. | 03:39 |
| bazhang | Guest101, and it just goes back to the livecd desktop or what | 03:39 |
| Guest101 | yes. | 03:39 |
| Bubalooshi | Well, that's my only reason besides Windows because of this... my wireless keyboard won't work with my bootloader stuff. | 03:39 |
| Jippen | Buba> If you are booting via the windows bootloader, then it prolly gives you a choice between "windows" and "other OS", right? | 03:40 |
| sysop1972 | When installing Ubuntu Server what is the best choice of disk partition types? The system is mainly a Samba file server for Windows clients. | 03:40 |

| bazhang | Guest101, that was an A or B question, you have to choose one | 03:40 |

| arvind_khadri | Yazan`, no ..what are you trying to achieve | 03:43 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, yes | 03:43 |
| Yazan` | i want to open /etc/X11/xorg.conf with admin privilage | 03:43 |
| kcman | so is this the only chat room on this thing or is there other to chat in? | 03:43 |
| jeeves_ | Jippen, I guess the best way would be to rewrite the script to do that for each location (make directories for year>month>day, but that' a LOT of rewriting (there is over 300 feeds) | 03:43 |
| bazhang | Guest101, you fiddled with the slider, or left it as ubuntu suggested | 03:44 |
| tma | xborgy, ok, this is just 4.7 k, but it seems to be a script to check on something and then run another app (included in the same folder) | 03:44 |
| tma | xborgy, it says #!/bin/bash on top | 03:44 |
| Jippen | jeeves: What it sounds like, is that you want to grab location-$year-$month-$day-hour-minute.jpg, with the $ being vars, and encode into a movie, right? | 03:44 |
| Wolvenhaven | styfle fix the cod4 server | 03:44 |
| sysop1972 | jippen: Is it reliable though? If one drive crashes do they all go down? | 03:44 |
| Guest101 | bazhang, I fiddled with it.. giving ubuntu 12gb of partition | 03:44 |
| glitsj16 | kcman: freenode has loads of channels, what are you looking for exactly ? | 03:44 |
| bazhang | Guest101, this is a dual boot or ubuntu only | 03:45 |
| kcman | glitsj16 i guess for now just social stuff is there a search or a page to choose from? | 03:45 |
| Yazan` | how can i open /etc/X11/xorg.conf with admin privilege from the terminal, if not: sudo /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:45 |
| Yazan` | ??? | 03:45 |
| arvind_khadri | tma,were you able to run the file | 03:45 |
| jeeves_ | Jippen, yes. it's traffic cams, and right now, I have the script downloading the pictures, and renaming the files to include the date/time they were downloaded. then I encode them by hand later. I'd like to have it run in the background, and once it's done, it moves the pictures to an eternal HDD. That way, I can archive the pictures, and be left with the encoded videos | 03:45 |
| bazhang | Yazan`, gksudo gedit | 03:45 |
| wfarr | Anyone in here dual-booting a macbook? | 03:45 |
| arvind_khadri | Yazan`, gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:45 |
| Guest101 | bazhang, i want/need it to be dual boot. | 03:45 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, file runs fine, it's just the prompt i want to get rid of | 03:45 |
| Jippen | sysop> If you need the reliability, go for raid. raises cost, setup time, and hurts performance, but it does give you hardiness. Then again, if the box crashes via power spike or something, you may still be hosed. | 03:46 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, ok did you navigate the right click menu?? | 03:46 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, yes | 03:46 |
| Jippen | jeeves: You can prolly patch something together with a loop, and using `date`, then | 03:46 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, any success?? | 03:46 |
| xborgy | tma: it's got to be a sh script./ | 03:46 |
| btfx | Guys, I have multiple network interfaces, Ubuntu automatically connacts to th ewired, but when I try to connect with one of the wireless, it disconnects the wired interface, how can I use both? | 03:46 |
| tma | xborgy, so, is there a command ... like exec apb ... or ./sh apb | 03:47 |
| glitsj16 | kcman: depending on the irc client you use you can get the complete list of channels, or look at www.freenode.net | 03:47 |
| tma | xborgy, something like that? | 03:47 |
| xborgy | tma: can you not send me teh file ? | 03:47 |
| Jippen | btfx: Why would you need to? If they are both going over the same line, you won't get any faster speed. | 03:47 |
| tma | xborgy, i dont think i can | 03:47 |
| bazhang | Guest101, you backed up the important stuff from windows? also, are you going to have a separate /home partition? if the manual partitioner in the installer disk is giving you fits you may wish to dl the gparted live cd and do it from there | 03:47 |
| sysop1972 | jippen: My concern is that LVM works like a striped raid so that if one drive were to crash it would take down the others as it works like 1 large drive. Is that how LVM works? | 03:47 |
| kcman | glitsj16 thank you | 03:47 |
| tma | xborgy, totally new to linux | 03:47 |
| Yazan` | ok, after installing the drivers for s3 gamma prosavage video card, how can i now configure the brightness/contrast?? | 03:47 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, if its a script then set it as executable!! | 03:47 |
| btfx | Jippen: they are going over separate lines =P | 03:47 |
| glitsj16 | kcman: no problem, hope you can find what you need, goodluck | 03:48 |
| xborgy | tma: right mouse click on the file make it exec | 03:48 |
| tma | arvind_khadri, xborgy it is set to executable already | 03:48 |
| Jippen | sysop: Yes, but you can layer LVM over a mirror raid. Easy expansion, just add 2 drives, then run a few LVM commands to take up the new space | 03:48 |
| bazhang | Guest101, you need to exercise great care when doing it however | 03:48 |
| [TiZ] | I've installed drivers for my Sony EyeToy, and I want to use it as a microphone. If I set the input device in Audacity to "OSS: /dev/dsp1", it works great. I have to use that option, as ALSA's input device doesn't work, and neither does "USB Audio" from sound properties. But I use ALSA to play sound throughout the system. How would I go about setting "OSS: /dev/dsp1" as my default input device, AND THEN, setting Wine up to use it as well? | 03:48 |
| xborgy | tma: you might have to chmod the file for privlages | 03:48 |
| styfle | can someone please help me with a wireless adapter linksys WPC54G Ver2. it discovers networks but when trying to connect it doesnt accept the password and then the icon disappears at the top | 03:49 |
| kcman | glitsj16 O:-) | 03:49 |
| mneptok | tma: /path/to/scrpit.sh > /dev/null | 03:49 |
| Guest101 | bazhang, yeah... all backed up. I just want to partitions.. One for ubuntu and one for vista.. i think it was me thta is makking the normal manual partitioner have a fit.. :/ | 03:49 |
| xborgy | tma: and them make a symbolic link to /usr/share/applications or whatever thats if its in there | 03:49 |
| btfx | Guys, how do I get the network manager to use more thn one network interface? | 03:49 |
| arvind_khadri | xborgy, thats also done :) | 03:49 |
| Yazan` | for all ubuntu users here, whenever you want to configure the brightness of your screen, how do you do it?? | 03:50 |
| xborgy | gotcha =_ | 03:50 |
| tma | mneptok, what does this command do? | 03:50 |
| Striking7 | Rawr! I'm having some trouble getting Hardy booting on my macbook pro. | 03:50 |
| sc0tt_ | i have ubuntu 8.04 and am using the gnome desktop, i can send files from my PC to my mobile phone but not vice versa | 03:50 |
| Jippen | jeeves> http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/timedate.html | 03:50 |
| mneptok | tma: runs the script and directs any output ot /dev/null | 03:50 |
| bazhang | btfx, from a cable connection and a dsl one (ie two different sources)? | 03:50 |
| Striking7 | I can get the liveCD booted and it installs. | 03:50 |
| mneptok | *to | 03:50 |
| arvind_khadri | Yazan`, use the monitor's menu | 03:50 |
| Striking7 | reFIt sees the partition | 03:50 |
| btfx | bazhang: yep | 03:50 |
| sc0tt_ | i have receive files enabled in preference->administration | 03:50 |
| hittingpilot | Hello, Firefox 3.0.1 won't display full screen youtube videos | 03:50 |
| Striking7 | I tell it to adjust the mbr... | 03:50 |
| [TiZ] | Yazan`, doesn't your monitor have any brightness controls? | 03:50 |
| btfx | bazhang: One wired connection (working) and two wireless(not) | 03:50 |
| Striking7 | and when I try to boot Linux it just hangs at the reFIt penguin screen :\ | 03:50 |
| tma | mneptok, but it's text executable file ... not a .sh file | 03:51 |
| Yazan` | YES IT DOES. and it's set on max | 03:51 |
| Yazan` | brb | 03:51 |
| tma | mneptok, no extension to it | 03:51 |
| mneptok | tma: it's still a shell script | 03:51 |
| styfle | how do you force quit??? | 03:51 |
| sysop1972 | jippen: I believe backups will be kept so I don't believe we need a raid setup I just worry if we have 3 drives and one crashes in LVM we will lose the OS | 03:51 |
| Jippen | hitting: Its a flash problem, not FF. Have you tried manually installing flash 9? That fixed it for me. | 03:51 |
| bazhang | btfx, you have two dsl accounts and one cable account? | 03:51 |
| styfle | im frozen right now | 03:51 |
| tma | mneptok, ok, let me try this | 03:51 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, you want to stop a partcular app or whole X?/ | 03:51 |
| btfx | bazhang: I have three routers =) each with a separate conection, one connects via LAN, two are wireless | 03:51 |
| xborgy | styfle: sudo killall appname in term | 03:51 |
| Guest101 | bazhang... do you think i should just use wubbi... cos tbh.. i dont trust myself with the partitones.. :/ | 03:51 |
| sc0tt_ | i have ubuntu 8.04 and am using the gnome desktop, i can send files from my PC to my mobile phone but not vice versa | 03:52 |
| btfx | bazhang: whenever I use the net manager to start one of the wireless ones, the wired connection is dropped =/ | 03:52 |
| styfle | im a nub: first time using ubuntu and i tried to update with update manager and its just frozen, i click the x and nothing | 03:52 |
| bazhang | Guest101, you can certainly try; the gparted live cd is fairly intuitive but partitioning can be fairly intimidating for newer users | 03:52 |
| xborgy | styfle: open a terminal | 03:52 |
| hittingpilot | jippen: no thanks for the tip | 03:52 |
| xborgy | styfle: sudo killall appname in term | 03:52 |
| Jippen | sysop: The only way to prevent losing the OS from a disk crash is to use raid, and raid is not a replacement for backups. | 03:52 |
| styfle | xborgy how do i open terminal? | 03:52 |
| sysop1972 | jippen: Whay would you partition the drive with that will be used for only windows data | 03:53 |
| xborgy | find it in your menu | 03:53 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, Alt+F2 sudo killall update-manager | 03:53 |
| Guest101 | bazhang.. i think im gonna go with wubbi.. thanks for your help though :D | 03:53 |
| Guest101 | bai | 03:53 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, use the run in terminal option | 03:53 |
| bazhang | btfx, network manager is not your friend in this instance, you will need to go cli for this | 03:53 |
| xborgy | arvind_khadri: ty | 03:53 |
| btfx | cli? | 03:53 |
| arvind_khadri | xborgy, :) welcome | 03:53 |
| Jippen | sysop: ext3. Since its going to be over a network, ext3 basically has all the features of NTFS, and is very stable on linux. | 03:53 |
| btfx | bazhang: vli? | 03:53 |
| btfx | **cli? | 03:53 |
| bazhang | btfx, the command line | 03:53 |
| btfx | bazhang: Which command =( | 03:54 |
| Jippen | And, since you are accessing over the network, you don't need to worry about FS compatability between systems | 03:54 |
| styfle | well the terminal wont open :( | 03:54 |
| btfx | bazhang: I assume the man pages will take it from here? | 03:54 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, press Alt+F2 | 03:54 |
| d600 | i have a wireless cars ralink r73usb but the max speed is only 1mb/s it should be 54mbps | 03:54 |
| mneptok | Jippen: saying "ext3 has all the features of ntfs" is like saying "natalie portman has all the sexiness of ernest borgnine" | 03:54 |
| bazhang | btfx, let me look for a link relevant to that | 03:54 |
| arvind_khadri | !tab | styfle | 03:54 |
| ubottu | styfle: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 03:54 |
| btfx | bazhang: Thankies! | 03:54 |
| glitsj16 | mneptok lol | 03:55 |
| === u is now known as Charitwo | ||
| styfle | ubottu: oh ok thanks, i tried alt f2 and it didnt do anything | 03:55 |
| ubottu | styfle: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 03:55 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, it would have opened a box ... | 03:55 |
| sysop1972 | Jippen: WHat I was thinking of doing (Tell me if I am wrong) was to make a 100gb? partition for the OS and then once everything was configured and working fine I would image the partition for a backup in the case that the drive crashes. For the data we would keep regular backups. | 03:55 |
| styfle | arvind_khadri: i tried alt f2 and it didnt open anything | 03:55 |
| Jippen | mneptok: As far as working as a FS for a samba share in a SOHO environment, its equivialnt. | 03:55 |
| TRON | Can one tell me why my comma sepertaed chans are not joined on startup? | 03:55 |
| tma | mneptok, xborgy arvind_khadri thanks, it works now ;) | 03:55 |
| xborgy | tma: sweet! | 03:55 |
| mneptok | tma: smashing | 03:55 |
| arvind_khadri | tma, welcome : | 03:55 |
| d600 | i have a wireless cars ralink r73usb but the max speed is only 1mb/s it should be 54mbps | 03:56 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, ok Applications->Acessories->Terminal | 03:56 |
| mneptok | tma: my PayPal address is ... | 03:56 |
| Jippen | sysop: 100gb for the OS is a whole lot more than you need, unless you are saying 100gb is os and data. | 03:56 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, sorry for typo's | 03:56 |
| styfle | arvind_khadri: i tried that too and still nothing | 03:56 |
| styfle | i cant even turn it off lol | 03:56 |
| xborgy | mneptok: lol | 03:56 |
| styfle | arvind_khadri: i think i'll just hold the power button | 03:56 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, ok use Ctrl+Alt+Backspace | 03:57 |
| sysop1972 | jippen: sorry I am a windows guy. lol What would you suggest for OS and aps? | 03:57 |
| xborgy | styfle: hit control + alt+ backspace | 03:57 |
| styfle | xborgy: nothing | 03:57 |
| tma | mneptok, hahahah ok | 03:57 |
| Jippen | sysop: Planning on it running on a command line, or would you be running a GUI on the box? | 03:57 |
| arvind_khadri | styfle, what the?? are you using Ubuntu??? | 03:57 |
| Wolvenhaven | styfle is a noob | 03:57 |
| ekontsevoy | I have a question regarding aptitude repository. How do I find out who maintains ruby/jruby packages and how do I cooperate with these people to help them include the latest stuff into Ubuntu's update? | 03:57 |
| sysop1972 | jippen: GUI for this newbie. | 03:58 |
| arvind_khadri | Wolvenhaven, :P but X should restart on that keystroke | 03:58 |
| mneptok | sysop1972: laptop or desktop? | 03:58 |
| ekontsevoy | Let's say I want apt-get install ruby to install the latest 1.8.7, who do I talk to? Who makes those decisions? Can I become a maintainer myself? | 03:58 |
| sysop1972 | Desktop | 03:58 |
| mneptok | sysop1972: how much physical memory? | 03:58 |
| mneptok | sysop1972: and do you care about hibernation? | 03:58 |
| sysop1972 | 2GB Intel Quadcore | 03:58 |
| Jippen | 2-3 gig should be more than enough. 5 if you wanna be really safe. Then partition the rest of your space for /home | 03:58 |
| mneptok | Jippen: 2-3GB is nowhere near enough | 03:59 |
| gluer | hi all, how do i reset my alsa-base file? | 03:59 |
| bazhang | btfx, check this out and the linked webpage there as well as the faq at that second link http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/admin/balance | 03:59 |
| Jippen | mneptok: For gnome, X, and samba? Its plenty. | 03:59 |
| mneptok | gluer: sudo dpkg-reconfigure alsa-base | 03:59 |
| btfx | bazhang: Thanks! | 03:59 |
| AngryPunk | anyone know why ubuntu thinks theres a blank disc in my drive after every reboot? "sudo hdparm -w /dev/cdrom1" gets rid of it and allows me to work with the drive, but its anoying to have to reset every reboot | 04:00 |
| mneptok | Jippen: for /boot with a few kernels and a reasonable apt cache, it's not. and we recommend at least 7.5GB. | 04:00 |
| mneptok | (for /) | 04:00 |
| mneptok | AngryPunk: any firmware updates for the optical drive? | 04:01 |
| gluer | mneptok: i just did that but its not there | 04:01 |
| glitsj16 | ekontsevoy: search for those on ubuntu.packages.com, the maintainers and contact info is available there | 04:01 |
| xborgy | mneptok: how do i flush out and get rid of all the old kernels in the GRUB list,i have several in there from doing updates all the time. | 04:01 |
| styfle | Wolvenhaven: nothing came up under hardware drivers | 04:01 |
| mneptok | xborgy: sudo apt-get autoremove | 04:01 |
| Wolvenhaven | you ought to have a restricted wireless driver styfle | 04:01 |
| ekontsevoy | glitsj16: yes, I see that - but do these guys actually make decisions regarding including their updates into official ubuntu's update cycle? not for a next version, but for apt-get update? | 04:01 |
| Wolvenhaven | you're most likely going to have to use ndiswrapper | 04:02 |
| Striking7 | sysop1972: I usually allocate 10 gigs for the / partition. I've never had to increase the amount, so I know that's more than enough | 04:02 |
| xborgy | ah thank you now will this also remove the kernnels themself? | 04:02 |
| AngryPunk | mneptok: latest firmware | 04:02 |
| styfle | Wolvenhaven: ok is it hard? | 04:02 |
| Wolvenhaven | not really | 04:02 |
| mneptok | xborgy: yes, but it will leave some fallback choices. | 04:02 |
| Sitherae | Is there a way to remove iTunes protection so I can play them in Ubuntu without losing quality? | 04:02 |
| xborgy | thanks alot bro! | 04:02 |
| mneptok | Sitherae: burn the tracks to CD and re-encode them | 04:02 |
| glitsj16 | ekontsevoy: i guess that depends, can't say anything decisive on that one sorry | 04:02 |
| Jippen | Well, mneptok, since you are obviously far surperior to me in every way, and breathe ubuntu, perhaps you would like to take over? | 04:02 |
| xborgy | mneptok: ty | 04:02 |
| Sitherae | mneptok: I believe that removes a bit of quality. | 04:03 |
| mneptok | Jippen: /whois mneptok before you start with the attitude, please. | 04:03 |
| mneptok | Sitherae: yes, it does. | 04:03 |
| Striking7 | Jippen: he's just offering his two cents... don't take it personally. | 04:03 |
| [TiZ] | I've installed drivers for my Sony EyeToy, and I want to use it as a microphone. If I set the input device in Audacity to "OSS: /dev/dsp1", it works great. I have to use that option, as ALSA's input device doesn't work, and neither does "USB Audio" from sound properties. But I use ALSA to play sound throughout the system. How would I go about setting "OSS: /dev/dsp1" as my default input device, AND THEN, setting Wine up to use it as well? | 04:03 |
| Sitherae | mneptok: I need a way to do it without removing quality :\ | 04:03 |
| Striking7 | Jippen: it's all about choice and variety here, right? | 04:03 |

I have to use that option, as ALSA's input device doesn't work, and neither does "USB Audio" from sound properties. But I use ALSA to play sound throughout the system. How would I go about setting "OSS: /dev/dsp1" as my default input device, AND THEN, setting Wine up to use it as well? | 04:10 |
| johanenjoke | hallo ik wil chaten | 04:11 |
| johanenjoke | hoi sagen | 04:11 |
| D1 | file is called setup.bat = kinda like extracting and creating files. How would I be able to run this is DosBox? | 04:11 |
| arvind_khadri | owner, the site clearly says that the method is broken in Hardy!! | 04:11 |
| bazhang | johanenjoke, english here | 04:11 |
| Blaqlight | arvind_khadri, and the best way to do that in a terminal is? | 04:11 |

| gluer | complete sound failure... | 04:12 |
| chubs | johanenjoke: #ubuntu-de (or similar), actually that looks scandinavian, i don't know | 04:12 |
| arvind_khadri | Blaqlight, the logs are in /var/log so check up there :) ... there check the syslog and faillog | 04:12 |
| D1 | i typed mount C root and it does not work.... | 04:12 |
| bazhang | D1, for dosbox? | 04:13 |
| chubs | you're from the netherlands so i'll go with dutch | 04:13 |
| D1 | yes | 04:13 |
| bazhang | D1, read the help within dosbox itself | 04:13 |
| owner | ok | 04:13 |
| johanenjoke | yes i am nederlands | 04:13 |
| owner | so what do i do | 04:13 |
| D1 | don't give me one of those answers ... anyone else know? | 04:13 |
| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: besides checking the logs you can try starting it in safe-mode and rule-out an incompatible add-on or a conflict with those etcetera .. | 04:13 |
| johanenjoke | what you do now? | 04:14 |
| owner | what does that even mean | 04:14 |
| Jippen | ah... found a new compiz feature... win + r = massive zoom. Anyone know the shortcut to reverse it? | 04:14 |
| arvind_khadri | owner, either use a older version and then update to Hardy or get a live cd and install Hardy | 04:14 |
| bazhang | D1, you want me to run dosbox and type out the exact command here? is that about the size of it? | 04:14 |

| Blaqlight | glitsj16, nope no good. | 04:17 |

| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: "killall firefox" will bring 'em all down, hopefully that improves your situation | 04:21 |
| Blaqlight | actually it was running like 10 times over. | 04:21 |
| glitsj16 | :) | 04:21 |
| [TiZ] | gnome-sound-recorder must be made of fail or something, though! It won't start. It just says, "Your capture settings are invalid, please correct them in multimedia settings" | 04:22 |

| linkmaster03 | Where can I find a memory editor for ubuntu like ArtMoney or Tsearch on Windows? | 04:45 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, i didnt think HAL handles if a dvd is in a drive... i thought the linux kernel handles that... | 04:45 |
| Flannel | Sitherae: any jabber client will work with google talk. If you want the voice, youneed a client that supports Jingle, a list is available here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jingle_%28protocol%29 | 04:45 |

| codiferous | porkchop, what wireless card do you have? | 04:47 |
| arvind_k | xborgy take this all to OT :) | 04:47 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: what video card do you have? | 04:47 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, geforce 6150 | 04:47 |
| porkchop | well, i have a different problem first. ubuntu wont even load for me now. | 04:48 |
| xborgy | arvind_k: hehe | 04:48 |
| Sitherae | How do I fix the SSL issue with Pidgin? | 04:48 |
| dr_Willis | xborgy, yea. I like some of the features of xfce. but thats the way linux is at times.. You like bits and peices of different tools. :) | 04:48 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, ive been using ubuntu since edgy, the problem is with hardy, i even made a fresh install, updated the nvidia driver, etc | 04:48 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, you need to install gnu-tls and then recompile!!! | 04:48 |
| xborgy | dr_Willis; exactly | 04:48 |
| porkchop | it gets to the load screeen with the sliding orange box, then the screen turns black withsome white writing | 04:48 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: Can't find that package :\ | 04:48 |
| porkchop | what did i do? | 04:48 |
| superfirelord42 | arvind_k, hmm, this is a very interesting situation... do you think it would be ok if we went one release lower than hardy and then did an internal upgrade? | 04:48 |
| arvind_k | superfirelord42, thats what the documentation suggests :P | 04:49 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: it could easily be the nvidia driver causing X to segfault, but I don't know of any way to reliably determine that | 04:49 |
| superfirelord42 | arvind_k, sorry, wrong term, dist-upgrade | 04:49 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, hang on | 04:49 |

| superfirelord42 | owner, what are the options on the menu? | 04:50 |
| dr_Willis | xborgy, been using jwm + rox lately | 04:50 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, no, and that "2d-only" part sounds more like a problem than a solution | 04:50 |
| murlidhar | arvind_k, did u mean libuclibc-dev ? | 04:50 |
| === mike is now known as Guest52862 | ||

| xborgy | dr_Willis: cool i havent even tryed jwm how is it? | 04:50 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, that is libgnutls and install its -dev too ... that would be sudo apt-get install libgnutls libgnutls-dev | 04:50 |
| owner | choose a mirror of ubuntu archive | 04:50 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: I'm not suggesting it as a solution. I'm suggesting it as a diagnostic | 04:51 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, ive disabled 3d effect (even tried uninstalling everything compiz related and commenting out compisiting in xorg.conf | 04:51 |
| porkchop | busybox v1.1.3 built in shell | 04:51 |
| owner | then a long list of countries | 04:51 |
| dr_Willis | xborgy, very very.. minimal. :) and can take some tweaking. | 04:51 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, and you choose one and it doesnt work? | 04:51 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, hey sorry there is only -dev just install that | 04:51 |
| xborgy | dr_Willis: nice,if you like minal you should try out Awesome you might like it. | 04:51 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, so you enter your country and choose a mirror, and it always doesnt work, no matter which one? | 04:51 |
| owner | tried almost all of them | 04:51 |
| RadicalR | Alright, looks like I have to amend my question. | 04:51 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: Alright got it. But now pidgin isn't compiling :( | 04:52 |
| owner | yea no mater with one i just get | 04:52 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, ok, then its the bug... i think, since its unassigned, and really annoying, i may see if i can fix that bug... but for now.. lets look at a version lower | 04:52 |
| owner | Bad archive mirrorThe specified Ubuntu archive mirror is either not available, or does not have a valid Release file on it. Please try a different mirror. | 04:52 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, we are going to install gusty | 04:52 |
| RadicalR | Apparently now only one of my DVD drives is giving the no medium found | 04:52 |
| zro | anyone know how to pad digits in a sed regex? | 04:52 |
| owner | ok | 04:52 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, it started happening with hardy, same system i had back from edgy, 3 different nvidia drivers | 04:52 |
| RadicalR | And there is nothing funny in the dmesg | tail | 04:52 |
| arvind_k | murlidhar, it would be this libglib2.0-0 | 04:52 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, did you try the dmesg | tail ? | 04:52 |
| zro | like s/\(\d\)/00\1/ | 04:52 |
| owner | i can gget net boot to run now no prob there so thats good | 04:53 |
| RadicalR | Yes | 04:53 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: which all share quite a bit of code | 04:53 |
| owner | part | 04:53 |
| crd1b | nvidia doesn't rewrite it for each version | 04:53 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, id go as far as trying the nvidia driver that shipped with gutsy if you tell me how | 04:53 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: Getting this error: make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 04:53 |
| gluer | im almost pulling my hair out to try and get my sound card to work its an alc861vd, the most i can get working is crappy noise through pc speaker, can someone point me in the right direction? | 04:53 |
| RadicalR | And it showed it mounting the master DVD | 04:53 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, i think you should just install from the repo...it has got no problems | 04:53 |
| xborgy | awesome is a floating and tiling window manager initialy based on a dwm code rewriting. It's extremely fast, small, dynamic and awesome. | 04:53 |
| Sitherae | alright | 04:53 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: try the 'nv' driver; that will tell you whether it's an X problem or an nvidia one | 04:53 |
| lginn02 | ok i cant get any of these desklets or mouse pointers installed | 04:53 |
| RadicalR | but not the slave DVD drive... | 04:53 |
| Chipsa964 | how do I install the firefox 3.0.1 package from the firefox web site? | 04:54 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: That did not fix the SSL problem :\ | 04:54 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, how. tell me how. or better, tell me how to install the gutsy nvidia driver because i had no problem on gutsy. if it doesnt work with that its the same diagnose right | 04:54 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, first uninstall the compiled version | 04:54 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, from http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/gutsy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/, redownload all the mini.iso, linux, and initrd.gz | 04:54 |
| gluer | chipsa964: make sure u copy your plugins into the new version of FF | 04:55 |
| l3d | ok why is it after a full install when I try to update from a wirless pc on the network after like 23 updates my internet connection dies and I have to reboot the router to get it back | 04:55 |
| murlidhar | arvind_k, gotta download a 2 mb file . will take some time | 04:55 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, and pxelinux.cfg files | 04:55 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: Using Synaptic? | 04:55 |
| murlidhar | arvind_k, oops 870kb to be exact | 04:55 |
| Candale | so is the ubuntu MID version actually on and devices yet? | 04:55 |
| glitsj16 | lginn02: try looking for instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy, it has a specific section on chenging mouse cursor themes | 04:55 |
| owner | ook | 04:55 |
| Chipsa964 | gluer, i downloaded the file, but im just not exactly sure how to install it | 04:55 |
| superfirelord42 | Chipsa964, is it a .tgz? | 04:56 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, no use sudo make uninstall ...assuming that you had successfuly installed/compiled it | 04:56 |
| superfirelord42 | Chipsa964, or a tar.bz2, or a tar.gz? | 04:56 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: I never installed it LOL | 04:56 |
| arvind_k | murlidhar, and after that install the -cli too for it :) | 04:56 |
| Sitherae | arvind_k: Kept getting errors with compiling | 04:56 |
| Chipsa964 | yeah tar.bz2 | 04:56 |
| gluer | Extract it and copy the folder as sudo...i forget the path..then copy your existing plugins across to the new plugins folder | 04:56 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: gutsy's nvidia driver wouldn't help since you'd expect it to fail with that too. Trying 'nv' is easy: just open /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find Section "Device", and set the Driver line to Driver "nv" | 04:56 |
| superfirelord42 | Chipsa964, where did you save it? | 04:56 |
| murlidhar | arvind_k, k ;) | 04:56 |
| Chipsa964 | desktop | 04:56 |
| arvind_k | Sitherae, then delete the source and use synaptic to install pidgin | 04:57 |
| superfirelord42 | Chipsa964, in the terminal, do cd Desktop... | 04:57 |

| fr05tbyt3 | hello all, i was wondering if it is possible to run two different desktop enviroments on two different monitors on one computer | 05:02 |
| gluer | copy the folder across to /usr/lib | 05:02 |
| owner | afraid i might lose the file structure if i do it manually | 05:03 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: that doesn't matter. It allows you to test user-switching with a non-nvidia driver | 05:03 |
| gluer | then copy the existing plugin files across to the new plugin folder | 05:03 |
| Squee__ | d600: sudo apt-get install ntfsutils. Then you can use mkfs.ntfs | 05:03 |
| wols_ | murlidhar: a header file | 05:03 |
| daggerx | can some1 help me | 05:03 |
| xborgy | d600: what i always use is the package manager search and i would type ntfs | 05:03 |
| fr05tbyt3 | so each monitor has their own virtual desktops and whatnot | 05:03 |
| scifiguy951 | how do i veiw deleted and saved texts andd any other useful info on moto4lin?? | 05:03 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, strange... you said its usb? can you unplug, then plug it back in, then give me a dmesg | tail | 05:03 |
| RadicalR | Nope. | 05:03 |
| fr05tbyt3 | two different xservers? | 05:03 |
| === mike is now known as Guest78610 | ||
| |Juan| | crd1b, the problem is not really user switching. its random | 05:03 |
| RadicalR | It's on IDE cables. | 05:03 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, oh.. sorry... | 05:03 |
| zcat[1] | fr05tbyt3, should be. probably tricky to set up though | 05:03 |
| murlidhar | Sitherae, edit the menu by right clicking on applications | 05:04 |
| === Guest78610 is now known as guy4286 | ||
| gluer | chipsa964: then point the icon path to the new path | 05:04 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, what brand and model cd drive is it? do you know? | 05:04 |
| Chipsa964 | gluer, copy the .tar.bz2 file to /usr/lib? | 05:04 |
| murlidhar | wols_, and where can i get the header file ? | 05:04 |
| Sitherae | murlidhar: No I meant like in /home/user/Programs/Pidgin | 05:04 |
| gluer | chipsa964: no extract it to the desktop | 05:04 |
| RadicalR | I can find out. One sec. | 05:04 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, so are you downloading the tree again then? | 05:04 |
| owner | what will be the core diffference in gusty and hardy | 05:04 |
| owner | uknow | 05:04 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, if i lock my session and go to "change user" sometimes it crashes without even changing the user, which lets me to think that it happens whenever gdmflexiserver is invoked | 05:04 |
| owner | i hopping not | 05:04 |
| gluer | then use nautilus as sudo to copy the folder across to /usr/lib | 05:05 |
| Squee__ | Sitherae: /home/user/Programs/ isn't generated by anything I know in ubuntu | 05:05 |
| murlidhar | Sitherae, is it there in applications menu? | 05:05 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, the core diffrence, is once you get gusty working.. (which works pretty well), you will dist-upgrade to hardy | 05:05 |
| Chipsa964 | gluer, ok, one sec | 05:05 |
| Sitherae | murlidhar: Yeah. even after I removed it with Synaptic | 05:05 |
| owner | hehe | 05:05 |
| Sitherae | murlidhar: And it still starts Pidgin. So pidgin is still installed :\ | 05:05 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, the major issue i know major diffrent that causes issues, is that hardy uses pulseaudio, which hates wine... | 05:05 |
| Squee__ | Is there a way I can take a variable In bash and get the size in bytes without dumping it to a file first? | 05:05 |
| gluer | chipsa964: thats just the way i got it working ;-) | 05:05 |
| owner | thats a good one I needed that | 05:05 |
| scifiguy951 | how do i veiw deleted and saved texts andd any other useful info on moto4lin?? | 05:05 |
| fwaokda | whats the cmd to list all usb drives to see where they are mounted at??? | 05:06 |
| angah | i uninstall driver but still can see in lsmod..any idea? | 05:06 |
| superfirelord42 | angah, have you rebooted? | 05:06 |
| gluer | chipsa964: maybe rename the existing ff folder you dont want to overwrite it ;-) | 05:06 |
| xborgy | btw i just looked in gparted and it does have ntfs | 05:06 |
| aent | hey.... I'm trying to setup vmware-server on my server, and I'm trying to understand the networking setup... I have a server have many static IP addresses on there (i.e. eth0:0-eth0:30), and I want to assign one to a vmware server... do I use bridged or NAT? | 05:06 |
| xborgy | so he needs to look harder | 05:06 |
| superfirelord42 | bridged takes one, nat creates a virtual internal | 05:07 |
| angah | superfirelord42: yes | 05:07 |
| murlidhar | Sitherae, got not idea then :( | 05:07 |
| angah | superfirelord42: let me try again | 05:07 |
| aent | so how do I assign which one the bridged one takes? | 05:07 |
| superfirelord42 | aent, if you want to set up to use a certine interaface, you want bridged... | 05:07 |
| ^Juan^ | crd1b, it happened right on gdm after locking! | 05:08 |
| superfirelord42 | aent, not sure on that... it should be in the vmware manuals on net... they may be able to help you more on the vmware channel... (i think we have one) | 05:08 |
| Sitherae | I removed Pidgin with Synaptic but it's still installed. And can be executed with the "pidgin" command | 05:08 |
| RadicalR | superfirelord42, LG (FOR) DVD-ROM DRD8160B | 05:08 |
| aent | ok thanks | 05:08 |
| ^Juan^ | crd1b, with the nv driver | 05:08 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, hold on.. | 05:08 |
| RadicalR | What's interesting is the the system detects the drive | 05:08 |
| scifiguy951 | how do i veiw deleted and saved texts andd any other useful info on moto4lin?? | 05:08 |
| RadicalR | but no media | 05:08 |
| enterneo | suggest a dreamweaver alternative? | 05:08 |
| ^Juan^ | crd1b, now what | 05:08 |
| trucMuche | Quanta+ | 05:09 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, strange.... | 05:09 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, their is a filed bug about that drive running very slowly in hardy | 05:09 |
| RadicalR | well, perhaps I should file a bug that it doesn't work at all! XD | 05:09 |
| RadicalR | But what's odd is that it used to work before | 05:09 |
| === ^Juan^ is now known as |Juan| | ||
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, it may work, im just saying.. i noticed that... lets look a little longer first | 05:10 |
| |Juan| | crd1b, it happened right on gdm after locking with the nv driver | 05:10 |
| xborgy | scifiguy951: which phone? | 05:10 |
| crd1b | |Juan|: I really have no idea where the problem could be now :/ | 05:10 |

| Dr4k3n | hi, i'm having troubles booting ubuntu hardy, someone told me that could be a problem with my wide screen and the frecuency some one have more info about it? | 05:15 |
| superfirelord42 | angah, hehe... openSolaris? anyways, is your wireless card in your machine? | 05:15 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: from the boot menu, boot into rescue mode, see if that works | 05:15 |
| wols_ | Dr4k3n: not until you give more info | 05:16 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: can you be more specific about what the problem is? | 05:16 |
| angah | superfirelord42: yes | 05:16 |
| superfirelord42 | angah, thats why then... if its in your machine, its using the driver, and it cannot be removed from the kernel | 05:16 |
| levander | angah: if you are using OpenSolaris, this isn't the right channel | 05:16 |
| superfirelord42 | levander, i think that was a joke | 05:16 |
| superfirelord42 | levander, the shell prompt looked ubuntuish... | 05:17 |
| angah | superfirelord42: ic..it's not openSolaris..i just named it | 05:17 |
| levander | angah: 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop' to turn off your network connections. | 05:17 |
| === murlidhar is now known as Guest51535 | ||
| superfirelord42 | angah, are you doing irc from that machine at the molment | 05:17 |
| superfirelord42 | ? | 05:17 |
| levander | angah: then maybe you can remove wlan | 05:17 |
| angah | superfirelord42: i use eth0 right now.. | 05:17 |
| Dr4k3n | well my problem is that when i boot from live cd i can select languaje and get in the menu.. i select install and there is no more.. it give me a black screen | 05:17 |
| bullgard4 | "~$ LC_ALL=C sudo make menuconfig; make: *** No rule to make target `menuconfig'. Stop" What do I wrongly? | 05:18 |
| angah | levander: cannot remove..show fatal error | 05:18 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: if i boot in rescue mode it works fine | 05:18 |
| levander | angah: did you shut down networking? | 05:18 |
| angah | levander: nop | 05:18 |
| superfirelord42 | angah, then if you follow levanders command you will be disconnected untill you do sudo /etc/init.d/networking start afterwards | 05:18 |
| RadicalR | superfirelord42, did you happen to find anything? | 05:18 |
| RadicalR | Or were you waiting for me? | 05:18 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: Are you seeing a graphical or text display when you use the LiveCD? | 05:18 |
| angah | superfirelord42: i know that | 05:18 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, yeah, waiting for you dmesg | grep sr1 please.. | 05:19 |
| levander | angah: That's probably what's using wlan so that you can't remove it is your network connection. | 05:19 |
| superfirelord42 | angah, just ckecking | 05:19 |
| superfirelord42 | levander, hehe, he went offline | 05:19 |
| === murlidhar_ is now known as murlidhar | ||

| Sitherae | My buddies in Emesene do not show up | 05:20 |
| murlidhar | phew | 05:20 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: Do you know what I mean when I say graphical vs. text on the screen? | 05:20 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, any luck | 05:20 |
| Dr4k3n | i understand | 05:20 |
| levander | superfirelord42: Think he's figured out that when he turns off networking that he loses his internet connection yet? | 05:20 |
| superfirelord42 | levander, i made sure to tell him first | 05:21 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: i understand what u mean | 05:21 |
| jbroome | i found that when i turn off the monitor i can't see things | 05:21 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: Do you ever get to a graphical screen from the LiveCD? | 05:21 |
| owner | i might have some netwrok issues | 05:21 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, same errors? | 05:21 |
| murlidhar | jbroome: really ? ;) | 05:21 |
| wols_ | Dr4k3n: | doesn't work | 05:21 |
| Blaqlight | this seems to be getting worse and worse by the minute, now nothing will start everything crashes on launch except xchat, pidgin and eterm. | 05:21 |
| Dr4k3n | sometimes but i have tu restart a lot if times | 05:21 |
| owner | my ft client is not working | 05:21 |
| murlidhar | jbroome: i see a black screen on my monitor. the rest can be seen perfectly by me | 05:22 |
| l815 | is there a way to fix the flash sound issue? | 05:22 |
| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: did you cleanout the session cache ? | 05:22 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, how did you get it to work yesterday? | 05:22 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: on a command prompt, try this: 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh' - that reconfigures X-Windows (the program responsible for the low-level graphical stuff) | 05:22 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, sorry, the day before yesterday | 05:22 |
| owner | may its bcos i have the tftp server running | 05:22 |
| cpierce | l815: is it just one site or like youtube too? | 05:22 |
| fwaokda | qemu isn't working well for me so I'm wanting to find another program to run winXP on ubuntu with... what would any of you recommend??? | 05:22 |
| Blaqlight | glitsj16, how do I do that? | 05:22 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: ok i'll try | 05:23 |
| levander | fwaokda: kvm is the recommended one | 05:23 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, could be, but i doubt it... | 05:23 |
| levander | fwaokda: it's what ubuntu has put the most work into integrating | 05:23 |
| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: look for a the .cache/sessions dir in you user dir and remove them | 05:23 |
| Blaqlight | glitsj16, the system log is mysteriously empty. I mean completely empty not on word. | 05:23 |
| l815 | cpierce, i mean when i play flash in firefox, I can't play music or any other audio without closing firefox first | 05:23 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, tftp is UDP, FTP is TCP, one is not routable, the other is able to be used across the web, i doubt they are interfearing... | 05:23 |
| fwaokda | levander, well I can't get any of my usb devices to load on a consistent basis | 05:23 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration | 05:23 |
| Dr4k3n | file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20080718222323 | 05:23 |
| superfirelord42 | owner, if anything is, its hte dhcp server... | 05:23 |
| owner | well it was a matter of the folders and how the boot file was named | 05:24 |
| Dr4k3n | so i restart now? | 05:24 |
| owner | yeah | 05:24 |
| owner | ur right | 05:24 |
| owner | i will turn it off | 05:24 |
| fwaokda | levander, I need a usb external hdd to load up and a zune device I have but it always says it can't load them. | 05:24 |
| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: odd indeed .. try clearing the sesson files you see in there, not the dir itself | 05:24 |
| levander | fwaokda: USB is tricky through emulation. I'm using VirtualBox (about to switch to kvm) and I had to monkey around with it to get it to work. | 05:24 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: that could fix my problem? | 05:25 |
| murlidhar | cya buddies . gotta go . | 05:25 |
| levander | fwaokda: Does the zune device talk UMS? I couldn't get an MTP device to talk to virtual box. | 05:25 |
| fwaokda | levander, have no idea that sounds like it's over my head. | 05:25 |
| superfirelord42 | levander, i thought zune was USB? | 05:25 |
| angah | levander: i remove modules but it still show in lsmod | 05:25 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: If you're having trouble getting a graphical display, that problem, every single time I've seen it, has been configuring X. | 05:25 |
| eitreach | can anyone here help me a bit with acidrip, or perhaps give me another channel where someone can? | 05:25 |
| fwaokda | superfirelord42, ya it is usb | 05:26 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: Very rarely I've seen graphics cards that just won't work with X. I've never seen a monitor that won't work with X. | 05:26 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: look i already installed ubuntu | 05:26 |
| Dr4k3n | when i try to boot | 05:26 |
| levander | angah: You 'sudo rmmod wlan' and wlan is in the output of lsmod? | 05:26 |
| superfirelord42 | levander, qemu and VBox have a way to pipe USB through | 05:26 |
| Dr4k3n | in normal mode it give me a black screen too | 05:26 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: That very well could be a problem in your X config. Did you try the dpkg-reconfigure command? | 05:27 |
| eitreach | Dr4k3n: it is most probably because of settings with your graphics adapter, not with your monitor. | 05:27 |
| fwaokda | superfirelord42, well I read your supposed to use this command, "-usbdevice host:bus.adr but it always says it can't open it. | 05:27 |
| Dr4k3n | ok i understand | 05:27 |
| levander | superfirelord42: Yeah, I got VBox to do it, but only with UMS devices, not with an MTP device. | 05:27 |
| angah | levander: need to reboot back.. | 05:27 |
| l815 | my laptop screen has 2 refresh rates (58 and 60), which should I choose? | 05:27 |
| === lulz is now known as Guest30374 | ||
| Dr4k3n | well i'll try to reboot again.. with the change that u give me levander | 05:27 |
| levander | superfirelord42: Your external hard drive will be UMS, I don't know what zune uses. | 05:27 |
| superfirelord42 | fwaokda, i think thats the command for QEMU | 05:27 |
| fwaokda | superfirelord42, ya thats what im currently using | 05:28 |
| eitreach | Dr4k3n: try having someone give you a plain vanilla xorg.conf. | 05:28 |
| SeveredCross | l815: 60. | 05:28 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: no, don't reboot | 05:28 |
| superfirelord42 | fwaokda, oh, i thought yall where using vbox | 05:28 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: ok | 05:28 |
| l815 | SeveredCross, thanks | 05:28 |
| Blaqlight | omfg I think I found the problem. I tried to open up audacious and guess what.. says there is a GTK Engine issue. | 05:28 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: directly after running that command, you should be able to do a 'startx' and see if X-Windows is working. | 05:28 |
| Dr4k3n | look i'll try to explain more.. i have a ati radeon 9200 se of 128 mb | 05:28 |
| SeveredCross | You're welcome l815. | 05:28 |
| fwaokda | ppl in the qemu channel aren't usually "talkative" when it comes to questions would ppl in the kvm channel mind if I asked them qemu questions you think? | 05:29 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, did it work? | 05:29 |
| SeveredCross | Dr4k3n: Sounds like you want the radeon driver. | 05:29 |
| Blaqlight | so then how do I fix the GTK engine to display right? | 05:29 |
| Dr4k3n | levander: right now i'm in graphical mode | 05:29 |
| Dr4k3n | it works fine | 05:29 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: well, what's the problem then? | 05:29 |
| Dr4k3n | the problem is booting | 05:29 |
| Dr4k3n | y only can boot in recovery mode | 05:29 |
| superfirelord42 | fwaokda, probably, the smaller channels take more patiance, i have seen people go over an hour in #winehq for someone to get on | 05:29 |
| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: well that's something to work with i guess, i gotta go to the work .. hope you can get things back to normal, goodluck | 05:29 |
| glitsj16 | bye all | 05:29 |
| Dr4k3n | when i boot in recovery mode.. then select boot normal.. it work fine | 05:29 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: have you played with your usplash screen at all? | 05:30 |
| owner | i am going to reboot my machine i will be back | 05:30 |

| superfirelord42 | CoolFox, did you install the vmware tools? | 05:30 |
| Blaqlight | this window manager uses various elements from Gnome including the GTK theme engine. I can't change the GTK theme engine from within here and I can't get Gnome to fully load. what do I do now? | 05:31 |
| CoolFox | not gonna. | 05:31 |
| CoolFox | its not stable. | 05:31 |
| CoolFox | it crashes every damn time i try to install it. | 05:31 |
| AMDpenguin | is ext3 better than ntfs? | 05:31 |
| mneptok | AMDpenguin: yes | 05:31 |
| superfirelord42 | CoolFox, the OS crashes, or the install crashes? | 05:31 |
| AMDpenguin | I find ext3 survives more crashes than ntfs | 05:31 |
| CoolFox | which os? | 05:31 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | could someone explain to me the usage of ~ and where it leads? like ~/.ssh ? | 05:32 |
| CoolFox | ubuntu boots incorectly. | 05:32 |
| superfirelord42 | CoolFox, when you install the vmware tools, the guest | 05:32 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: you can try editing the grub menu and taking off the 'splash' and 'quiet'off the boot options for the normal boot grub profile. I think maybe change splash to nosplash is what I've done in the past. | 05:32 |
| superfirelord42 | DJ_HaMsTa, that expands to your home dir | 05:32 |
| Flannel | DJ_HaMsTa: its an alias to your homedir | 05:32 |
| mneptok | DJ_HaMsTa: ~ = "my user home directory" | 05:32 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | ah i see | 05:32 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | thank you | 05:32 |
| levander | Dr4k3n: that way, the splash screen isn't hiding any errors | 05:32 |
| superfirelord42 | DJ_HaMsTa, so ~ == /home/DJ_HaMsTa | 05:32 |
| Blaqlight | anyone have any idea how to fix this GTK theme engine problem? | 05:32 |
| Sitherae | how do I switch between compiz and x? | 05:32 |
| CoolFox | ubuntu crashes on the reboot right after installing. | 05:33 |
| levander | Sitherae: compiz runs on top of x | 05:33 |
| DJ_HaMsTa | after creating a /.ssh how come when im home i type dir or ls and i dont see .ssh ? | 05:33 |
| mneptok | Sitherae: you don't. they always run at the same time | 05:33 |
| levander | Sitherae: you don't switch between the two | 05:33 |
| a_robot | wo xiang zhi dao zen me da zi | 05:33 |
| CoolFox | I follow the instructions to the letter, and this is off of a VIRGIN install. | 05:33 |

| mneptok | !cn > a_robot | 05:33 |
| ubottu | a_robot, please see my private message | 05:33 |
| levander | Sitherae: get rid of what? | 05:33 |
| SeveredCross | DJ_HaMsTa: Because . folders are hidden. | 05:33 |
| SeveredCross | Anything prefixed with a . is hidden from normal ls. | 05:33 |
| a_robot | chinese | 05:33 |
| Sitherae | levander: How do I stop compiz? | 05:33 |
| SeveredCross | You need ls -a to see hidden folders. | 05:33 |

| Sitherae | SeveredCross: ty | 05:34 |
| superfirelord42 | CoolFox, strange, i have used them before, well have you installed only peices of it before, like just the mouse driver? | 05:34 |
| levander | Sitherae: In Gutsy (I'm not on Hardy yet), go to System -> Preferences -> Advanced Desktop Effect Settings and choose "None". | 05:34 |
| levander | Sitherae: I think that's what you want. | 05:34 |
| unsungx | hey anyone know how to change my grub splash with hardy!? | 05:34 |
| l815 | SeveredCross, oh okay, just asking because 58 was default | 05:34 |
| CoolFox | mouse driver? | 05:34 |
| cobber2005 | Anyone gets flickering after waking up from suspending in Hardy? I don't have nVidia... | 05:34 |
| fwaokda | blah I think I'm gonna go with virtualbox over qemu see if it works for me better. Can I keep my windows.img I've already installed to use with virtualbox or do I have to reinstall it for Vbox? | 05:35 |
| superfirelord42 | CoolFox, yeah, basicly the VMware installer installs a bunch of drivers | 05:35 |
| jerome1232 | unsungx: easiest way is to sudo apt-get install startup-manager | 05:35 |
| levander | fwaokda: reinstall | 05:35 |
| CoolFox | i've been using it without anything. | 05:35 |
| superfirelord42 | CoolFox, you can just install the mouse driver... i dont remember how though... | 05:35 |
| fwaokda | levander, how do I uninstall all the qemu stuff on my computer and get rid of the windows.img ? | 05:35 |
| CoolFox | to transfer files, i've set upa little network. get a little slow since it has to go across my wireless router, but its been sufficent | 05:35 |
| namire | hey I just installed Hardy Heron and it's being a bitch, wtf: http://www.pastebin.org/52592 | 05:35 |
| namire | why are those packages not installable | 05:36 |
| levander | fwaokda: 'sudo apt-get remove qemu', and you can just remove the windows.img like a regular file | 05:36 |
| namire | it does it for other programs too | 05:36 |
| namire | i.e. samba | 05:36 |
| fwaokda | levander, where is the .img likely located at? | 05:36 |
| CoolFox | meh, i'm gonna make a new install and try to install it again. | 05:36 |
| RadicalR | superfirelord42, did what work? | 05:36 |
| RadicalR | You didn't tell me to do anything ~_~ | 05:36 |
| CoolFox | experiment around a bit. | 05:36 |
| sysop1972 | mneptok: You still here? | 05:36 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, did the command return a list of events for sr1? | 05:36 |

| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, dmesg | grep sr1 | 05:37 |

| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, hehe... its hard to catch stuff in here sometimes... | 05:37 |

| RadicalR | Hmm, that's strange. | 05:39 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, do you know its ide? if so, that could be the issue | 05:39 |
| CoolFox | you know, i really love how fast ubuntu installs. | 05:39 |
| RadicalR | It should be IDE | 05:39 |

| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, is it a dell? | 05:40 |
| RadicalR | Thankfully no. | 05:40 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, i thought it assigns all drive names as scsi | 05:40 |
| RadicalR | However, it's a custom computer I built. | 05:40 |
| superfirelord42 | RadicalR, it could, that could be the root of the issue | 05:40 |

| Shinpo | superfirelord42. thanks, that's kinda what I figured but didn't think the transfer speeds would take such a hit. | 06:02 |
| superfirelord42_ | Shinpo, but it doesnt explain hte timout though... | 06:03 |
| gnub | legend2440, volumes visable is checked, I have 2 other paritions on my desktop just not this oen | 06:03 |
| superfirelord42_ | Shinpo, i think that could be a bug | 06:03 |
| superfirelord42_ | Caphi, the thing is, if that was the most recent system change, there is a good chance the problem came from them... | 06:03 |
| Shinpo | superfirelord42, Hrm, I'll try installing a different FTP server and see what happens. | 06:03 |
| superfirelord42_ | so if we know what they are, we narrow down the possible problems | 06:04 |

| legend2440 | gnub: if you want to paste /etc/fstab i can take a look. as you know if its mounted in /media it should show | 06:05 |

| Caphi | And now, I take my leave. | 06:11 |
| legend2440 | gnub: or try sudo mount -a | 06:11 |
| gnub | did that too | 06:11 |
| legend2440 | gnub: how about sudo umount -a then sudo mount -a | 06:12 |
| r2s | if a Access Point served as a Repeater.. will I be able to connect a wifi client to it?? | 06:12 |
| fwaokda | anyone here use a lapboard to place their laptop on while sitting on the couch? Looking for a recommendation. | 06:12 |
| sysop1972 | I am just install 804 server. I am doing a manual partition on a 320GB drive for a file server to windows workstations. Could someone please give me info as to what partitions to make? | 06:13 |
| r2s | sysop1972: only one hard drive?? | 06:14 |
| r2s | not configured in raid?? | 06:14 |
| gnub | legend2440, that worked | 06:14 |
| cappicard | hmm... i have firefox 3 on 64-bit hardy, and i got no sound in flash | 06:14 |
| gnub | So where am I normally supposed to create mount points, in /mnt or /media | 06:14 |
| r2s | a file server needs a nice raid setup for security of data | 06:14 |
| gnub | like whats the difference | 06:14 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: I will be adding another 320gb later for more storage. So I would like some of the primary drive to work as data storage also | 06:15 |
| legend2440 | gnub: as far as i know /media | 06:15 |
| superfirelord42 | r2s, what was that about an access point? | 06:15 |
| r2s | sysop1972: I mean RAID... like mirroring 3 320GB hard drive | 06:15 |
| r2s | superfirelord42: if a Access Point served as a Repeater.. will I be able to connect a wifi client to it?? | 06:15 |
| superfirelord42 | you should be able to... | 06:15 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: I know but we arent doing the raid thing.. just backups and an image of the drive when it is all working | 06:16 |
| superfirelord42 | r2s, you should, it partially depends whether you its repeating to another access point, or its just acting as an extender | 06:16 |
| Shinpo | r2s, I would look into WDS if your looking into extending the range of your wifi, I've got that setup to connect my xbox to my wifi network without buying their expensive adapter. | 06:16 |
| r2s | superfirelord42: I got this setup => bldg A (AP)---> Bldg B...(AP=Repeater) | 06:16 |
| r2s | ok | 06:16 |
| r2s | sysop1972: hmm | 06:16 |
| legend2440 | gnub: The /mnt directory and its subdirectories are intended for use as the temporary mount points for mounting storage devices, such as CDROMs, floppy disks and USB (universal serial bus) key drives. | 06:17 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: could you help me with the partitioning? | 06:17 |
| r2s | sysop1972: sure.. but if you wish it's expandable later.. I suggest you a LVM setup | 06:17 |
| gnub | I thought it was the other way around | 06:17 |
| gnub | isnt /media for that | 06:17 |
| legend2440 | gnub: http://www.linfo.org/mnt.html | 06:17 |
| superfirelord42 | gnub, if i recall, media is for more permante mount points | 06:18 |
| r2s | r2s: like 200MB = /boot 4GB=SWAP the rest in LVM | 06:18 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: With the lvm I worry that if one drive goes it will also take down the 2nd drive | 06:18 |
| r2s | sysop1972:like 200MB = /boot 4GB=SWAP the rest in LVM | 06:18 |
| superfirelord42 | gnub, so your cdrom drive would goto media... if you where making a quick iso, it would goto mount | 06:18 |
| superfirelord42 | gnub, and diffrent distros treat it diffrently, if you use feather linux (a debian dirivitive), you fill find no /media and all mountpoints are in /mnt | 06:19 |
| r2s | sysop1972: no lvm is use to make the main partition .(example home) expandable later if you want to add new drives later) | 06:19 |
| l815 | while playing music my laptop gets hotter, is this normal behavior? | 06:19 |
| amenado | sysop1972-> try lvm and limit the partitions (8e) to like 40gig each to make it flexible | 06:19 |
| gnub | I see | 06:19 |
| andra | hui | 06:19 |
| superfirelord42 | andra, ? | 06:20 |
| User__ | I heard that from a friend that with 8.04, you can install ubuntu without making a seperate partition and that you can uninstall it in "Add/Remove Programs" | 06:20 |
| User__ | Is this true? | 06:20 |
| superfirelord42 | User__, you are talking about wubi | 06:20 |

| agentjon | http://wubi-installer.org/ | 06:20 |
| r2s | sysop1972: example setup:.... 200MB ext3 /boot 4GB swap 20GB ext3 / or root the rest create an LVM group and logical volume like basys and use the rest of HDD | 06:20 |

| sysop1972 | Is it hard to add a drive later on if I don't use lvm? | 06:21 |
| gnub | What should my fstab entry look like for another ext3 partition | 06:21 |
| r2s | exampke you still got 240GB free.. you c | 06:21 |
| gnub | I have /dev/sda5 /media/name but what do I put after that | 06:21 |
| derekS | anyone want to help me wiht a networking question? I do a hostname -d and it provides my isp's hostname. Because of this, i am not able to ping other computers in my network (behind a router) by hostname. any suggestions on how i can solve this? | 06:21 |
| nickrud | gnub UUID=<device uuid> /media/name ext3 defaults 0 2 | 06:22 |
| nickrud | gnub you can find the device uuid with sudo blkid | 06:22 |
| r2s | sysop1972: yeah.. in case your current /home (which users store all their data) are full.. and you just add another drive.. you might create another directory like /home2 .. but cannot be /home | 06:22 |
| r2s | sysop1972: but in LVM you just add the new drive in you LVM group and nothing more to be done | 06:23 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: so without lvm I would need to create new shared folders? A new drive would not increase the space in the old shares? | 06:23 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | hi how cna I make my wine menu show? | 06:23 |
| Chipsa964 | my sound gets disabled when coming back from hibernation....how can i fix this? | 06:23 |
| amenado | derekS-> how many interfaces does your host have? | 06:24 |
| gnub | nickrud, What if the folder I created in /media has a space so its /media/Data 2 | 06:24 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: and with LVM adding a new drive would automatically increase the storage in my old shares? | 06:24 |
| gnub | fstab doesnt like that when I try to mount it | 06:24 |
| r2s | sysop1972: in LVM you can maintain the same directory like all user uses /HOME... even adding new space for hard drive | 06:24 |
| nickrud | gnub /media/Data\040\2 | 06:24 |
| r2s | sysop1972: r2s: and with LVM adding a new drive would automatically increase the storage in my old shares? ----- YES | 06:24 |
| AutoMatriX | hi folks | 06:25 |
| nickrud | gnub erm, /media/Data\0402 that is, no second slash | 06:25 |
| Flannel | r2s, sysop1972, not automatically. | 06:25 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: is it stable? | 06:25 |
| superfirelord42 | nickrud, what does \0402 tell fstab to do? | 06:25 |
| derekS | amenado: what do you mean how many interfaces does my host have? | 06:25 |
| derekS | amenado: i have one nic card | 06:25 |
| nickrud | superfirelord42 it's ascii for SPACE | 06:25 |
| r2s | Flannel: r2s, sysop1972, not automatically. Yeah need to do some partition management.. and volume management | 06:25 |
| superfirelord42 | nickrud, ah, ty.. | 06:25 |
| Shinpo | derekS, look in the file /etc/hostname and see what it says in there. That should hold the desired hostname, then make the appropriate changes in /etc/hosts | 06:25 |
| nickrud | superfirelord42 if my memory serves | 06:26 |
| jerome1232 | boot | 06:26 |
| r2s | sysop1972: r2s: is it stable? --he'll yeah | 06:26 |
| Flannel | r2s: Even if you add it to your volume group, logical volumes need not increase in size | 06:26 |
| l815 | while playing music my laptop gets hotter, is this normal behavior? | 06:26 |
| amenado | derekS-> if you have one interface, what is its ip address? and is it the gateway or better yet, can you elaborate on your network layout? | 06:26 |
| btfx | Hey guys, I'm trying to configure my three network interfaces via the network manager, after messing with the manual configuration tool, I think I got them all to work, but now my wireless interfaces won't connect. Either nothing happens, or they get a 169.254 address, anyone know what I can do? The vantage point is great, I've had measly internal laptop wifi connect from worse places.... | 06:26 |
| btfx | ...http://pastebin.com/m2ac7c394 | 06:26 |
| r2s | Flannel: Flannel: r2s: Even if you add it to your volume group, logical volumes need not increase in size -- Yeah | 06:26 |
| derekS | Shinpo: /etc/hostname has the right information, and i don't want to hardcode | 06:26 |
| gnub | nickrud, yep that did it | 06:26 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | hi installed wine but the menu aint showing in my ubuntu how cna I make it show? | 06:26 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: Ok this might be a lot to ask but I am at the setup screen.. could you step me through this so I dont screw it up? | 06:27 |
| btfx | l815: CD music? | 06:27 |
| gnub | Thanks guys, I think I understand mounting a partition and fstab much better now | 06:27 |
| nickrud | gnub if I may, I really suggest not using spaces in directories, they can be a pain | 06:27 |
| l815 | btfx, no banshee | 06:27 |
| superfirelord42 | Baby_Shambl3s, have you installed apps into wine yet? | 06:27 |
| btfx | l815: mp3 encoded? | 06:27 |
| r2s | sysop1972: hmm... | 06:27 |
| gnub | nickrud, how so | 06:27 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | superfirelord42: yeap plenty of them which dont show or act as they are supposed to | 06:27 |
| Spaceraver | can anyone tell me why generating locales takes up 100% cpu, but as far as i can see there is no disk io | 06:27 |
| derekS | amenado: i have one router (old netgear) with 4 ethernet ports. I then have 4 computers attached to the ethernet ports. They all have hostnames setup properly in /etc/hostname. I want to ping comp1 from comp2 and have it go throuhg | 06:27 |
| r2s | sysop1972: I'll be gone in a minute or two.. seek help for other in here... | 06:27 |
| btfx | l815: mp3s take more cpu to decode than you may think, your comp is far fro idling when you play music | 06:27 |
| derekS | without using ip address | 06:27 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: so can we keep the system information in a partition that doesnt use the lvm so I cam image the partition? | 06:28 |
| amenado | gnub-> spaces are not normally used for filenames or directory names in linux systems | 06:28 |
| nickrud | gnub like cp <file> /media/Data 2 won't work as you expect, you'd have to remember to use /media/Data\ 2 every time. | 06:28 |
| l815 | btfx, yah mp3's and such. So I guess the answer is yes. Thanks :) | 06:28 |
| Shinpo | derekS, when you are trying to ping the other systems on the network are you trying to ping their hostnames or IP addresses? | 06:28 |
| r2s | sysop1972: and LVM cannot be performed using the LiveCD of ubuntu | 06:28 |
| btfx | n/p | 06:28 |
| superfirelord42 | Baby_Shambl3s, to get them to show up, most people make .desktop files, but hte most common way of execing a wine program, is wine program.exe | 06:28 |
| derekS | Shinpo: hostnames, obviously | 06:28 |
| arvind_khadri | gnub, because while deleting them you will have to use escape sequences :P | 06:28 |
| btfx | Hey guys, I'm trying to configure my three network interfaces via the network manager, after messing with the manual configuration tool, I think I got them all to work, but now my wireless interfaces won't connect.

| HappyHater | Spaceraver, it's a bug, happened to me while upgrading | 06:28 |
| gnub | So I should just change them so there are no spaces basically | 06:29 |
| nickrud | yep | 06:29 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | superfirelord42: i wnat it to show in my app menu it creates the desktop icons but it doesnt show in my app menu | 06:29 |
| Spaceraver | is there a workaround HappyHater? | 06:29 |

| superfirelord42 | Baby_Shambl3s, have you tried dragging the icons into your app menus? | 06:29 |
| amenado | derekS-> what is the ip address of your host? | 06:29 |
| jordan | Spaceraver, There are conflicting reports, see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/langpack-locales/+bug/249340 | 06:29 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 249340 in langpack-locales "Gutsy->Hardy upgrade hangs in localedef" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 06:29 |
| HappyHater | I had to 'sudo killall locale-gen' for the install to complete... it finally sorted the locale out later when I installed something with apt | 06:30 |
| derekS | amenado: i have 192.168.0.1 as router, and 2-5 as computers | 06:30 |
| amenado | derekS-> the one you are having issues with | 06:30 |
| sysop1972 | r2s: How do you know if it is the live cd? I downloaded this from ubuntu.com | 06:30 |
| Ahadiel | Baby_Shambl3s, sudo apt-get install alacarte, then right-click on "Applications" and go to "edit menu". | 06:30 |
| derekS | amenado: all | 06:30 |
| derekS | i can't ping any via hostname | 06:30 |
| Dial_tone | what can I use to save a portion of a video to another video file? example from 45 minutes in to 50 minutes in? | 06:30 |
| Ahadiel | Baby_Shambl3s, From there you can add/edit/remove things from your Applications' menu. | 06:30 |
| Shinpo | derekS, Well then comp1 will not know of comp2's hostname unless it is either listed in the /etc/hosts file or you have a DNS server setup on one of you systems on the local network. If you do have a DNS server installed locally then you would add it's IP to your /etc/resolv.conf. Then you will be able to ping the hostname and not have to hard code it in every machine. (just the dns server) | 06:30 |
| gnub | I changed the directories in /media and in fstab to match and remounted but they still have the same name is before | 06:31 |
| jordan | Ahadiel, avidemux | 06:31 |
| gnub | Did they get a volume label? | 06:31 |
| Ahadiel | jordan, Dial_tone* | 06:31 |
| derekS | Shinpo: i assume my router has one? it is a typical netgear router for home... | 06:31 |
| nickrud | gnub could be. ls -l /dev/disk/by-label will show | 06:32 |
| amenado | derekS your router does not have a name server with hostname for all those connected to it | 06:32 |

| Shinpo | derekS, I know on my router at home I was not able to ping any hostnames, perhaps some routers do, but my experience has been otherwise, that's why I installed bind on one of the servers. | 06:33 |
| sysop1972 | amenado: yes | 06:33 |
| tyler_ | k | 06:33 |
| arvind_khadri | tyler_, paste your /etc/sources.list on pastebin | 06:33 |
| amenado | sysop1972-> okay, you can start the install, and upon selection of which drive to use, use a manual partitioning | 06:33 |
| derekS | Shinpo: i figured it did, though my router is about 8-10 years old | 06:33 |

| Jordan_U | CyberCod, What problem are you having? | 06:42 |
| BonezAU | Jordan_U, arvind_khadri, it does not detect my card. If I choose to manually install, it fails when I reboot (get a blank screen) | 06:42 |
| CyberCod | I wrote a script to start a playlist with audacious... cron will run the script but refuses to run the audacious part of it... it runs everything else in the script though | 06:42 |
| arvind_khadri | BonezAU, oopsy daisy ... hang on :) | 06:43 |
| CyberCod | when starting the script via CLI or via nautilus it works just fine | 06:43 |
| Jordan_U | CyberCod, Can you pastebin the script? | 06:43 |

| sysop1972 | amenado: now I should make a /boot partition? | 06:45 |
| BonezAU | arvind_khadri, I have tried to build driver from nvidia.com also - but I did not do the disabled modules part, I will try again | 06:45 |
| Jordan_U | CyberCod, If superfirelord42 is right you could try adding "export DISPLAY=:0.0" to the script and see if that gets it to work ( though hard coding :0.0 may fail if you use fast user switching ) | 06:45 |

| superfirelord42_ | CyberCod, i see two choices, use a non graphical such as mpg123 and see if it works, or add export DISPLAY=:0.0 before xmms or your media player | 06:49 |
| nickrud | tyler_ how's it going there? | 06:50 |
| superfirelord42_ | CyberCod, if you use fast user switching, it may not always work, but otherwise, i think it *should* fix it... | 06:50 |
| sysop1972 | amenado: for /root /boot I have them partitioned with ext 3 and I would assume the /swap should be partitioned with swap area? | 06:50 |

| superfirelord42_ | CyberCod, cron is a proccess that is always running, so it may not have your DISPLAY var when it executes... | 06:51 |
| milan | hi all | 06:51 |
| amenado | sysop1972-> yes , anyhow you dont need a /root in a separate partition | 06:51 |
| enry | does ubuntu-server have some sort of blocking mechnism setup by default??? | 06:51 |
| nickrud | tyler_ ok, do sudo ls , what error do you get? | 06:51 |

| CyberCod | is there some way of testing what the current display is? | 07:11 |
| Flannel | sysop1972: No. Alternate CD is the old "install" CD, it uses debian-install (like the server CD), and installs a regular install, OEM, CLI only, etc. And can set up LVM | 07:11 |
| superfirelord42 | sure, in a terminal, echo $DISPLAY | 07:11 |
| CyberCod | just in case it's not 0.0? | 07:11 |
| CyberCod | k | 07:12 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, its not 0.0, its :0.0 | 07:12 |
| CyberCod | yeah... :0.0 | 07:12 |
| sysop1972 | flannel: 8:04 server does give the option of LVM partitioning. So should I do that instead of setting up manually? | 07:13 |
| CyberCod | DISPLAY=:0.0 audacious -p /home/fayte/Desktop/Playlists/MorningMusic.pls 2> /home/fayte/MorningPlayer/MP.log | 07:13 |
| CyberCod | thats the current command | 07:13 |
| Flannel | sysop1972: Server CD should offer LVM options | 07:13 |
| Flannel | sysop1972: Oh, you said that. Yeah. If you're doing a fresh install, during install is the easiest way | 07:13 |
| komputes | In 8.04, how do you keep the preference of which monitor is the primary monitor? | 07:14 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, hmm... | 07:15 |
| sysop1972 | flannel: would it make sense for me to keep the system files in a non-LVM partition on its own so I can image the partition after it is setup? This alway did wonders with windows in the case that the drive crashes. | 07:15 |
| CyberCod | I'm going to look at audacious --help and see if there are any display switches | 07:15 |
| Flannel | sysop1972: What? | 07:15 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, can we split that command up... on the line above, put export DISPLAY=:0.0 | 07:15 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, and take it off of the next line | 07:16 |
| CyberCod | audacious has a display switch | 07:16 |
| l815 | what's the best choice for a video player? | 07:16 |
| CyberCod | gonna try that | 07:16 |
| sysop1972 | flannel: Should I create the /root partition outside of the LVM so I can make an image of it for backup? | 07:16 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, awesome... | 07:16 |
| CyberCod | l815: VLC is my fave | 07:16 |
| superfirelord42 | VLC, hmmm, would you rather do this script with VLC? | 07:17 |
| l815 | CyberCod, ah yah I forgot about that one | 07:17 |
| Flannel | sysop1972: /root won't matter (doesn't have anything in it), /boot needs to be off of it (this has already been said). You can make a backup with it being on LVM just fine. | 07:18 |
| Ahadiel | CyberCod, Maybe try mplayer instead of audacious? | 07:18 |
| CyberCod | audacious: cannot open display: :0.0 | 07:18 |
| CyberCod | maybe try it without the : | 07:18 |
| sysop1972 | flannel: I will just let ubuntu take care of it then since it has automated LVM installation. | 07:19 |
| CoolFox | does anybody know where the GNOME theme artwork is kept in the Ubuntu filesystem? | 07:19 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, i wonder if the X server is set to block stuff launched by the cron jobs... | 07:19 |
| l815 | CoolFox, try ~/.themes | 07:19 |
| jaddaway | coolfox: search for the gnome artwork package and see its file list | 07:19 |
| CyberCod | hmmm | 07:20 |
| CyberCod | if so its a new thing | 07:20 |
| CoolFox | l815, how? thats a hidden directory. | 07:20 |
| Vyom1 | Hi | 07:20 |
| sysop1972 | flannel: Or not... it came up with an error.. LVM failed because an error occurred while creating volume group | 07:20 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, actually it would be an old thing, just a new configuration setting normally not active on ubuntu | 07:20 |
| l815 | CoolFox, press CTRL + H | 07:21 |
| CyberCod | ah | 07:21 |
| Ahadiel | CyberCod, give mplayer a try as it doesn't require X. | 07:21 |

| Vyom1 | I need to setup Ubuntu for someone who does not have a internet connection (my parent's place actually). Is Ubuntu 8 desktop version all I need to burn on CD to do the setup properly? | 07:21 |

| l815 | CoolFox, oh sorry then :/ | 07:22 |
| CyberCod | with the display switch | 07:22 |

| superfirelord42 | owner_, yes i am | 07:22 |
| braden_ | gnub: thats really wierd, have you tried removing it from command like seamonkey | 07:23 |
| owner_ | ok gusty was a breez | 07:23 |
| Vyom1 | superfirelord42, would that be a problem? that PC is never going to be connected to internet | 07:23 |
| l815 | CoolFox, must hold themes only installed by the user | 07:23 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, i thought so... you now have Gusty, congrats!!! | 07:23 |
| Vyom1 | it would just serve as a desktop OS... | 07:23 |
| superfirelord42 | Vyom1, means they will not get updates and the ability to apt-get new applications | 07:23 |
| owner_ | ok I am on partitioning i need some help on the options | 07:23 |

| Ahadiel | CyberCod, Umm, try mplayer? Probably better since it doesn't require X. | 07:42 |

| Decepticon | superfirelord42 did you say i want to mv ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys ##### on the remote machine? | 07:44 |
| superfirelord42 | your choice | 07:44 |
| CyberCod | fwaokda: the #vbox chat room could probably help you better, those guys are awesom | 07:44 |
| Decepticon | ok but i thought authorized_keys2 was for ssh2 | 07:45 |
| Ahadiel | CyberCod, An mplayer playlist is just full paths to each file. | 07:45 |
| Decepticon | and authorized_keys was for ssh1 | 07:45 |
| Decepticon | and that sshd should be able to tell the difference? | 07:45 |
| fwaokda | CyberCod, its a little dead atm so thats why I figured I'd try here right quick | 07:45 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, thats if you have ssh1 isntalled, they dont install ssh1 on ubuntu unless youg et it from apt | 07:45 |

| ubottu | glacier: 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 | 07:46 |
| nickrud | glacier no, it will appear on all desktops | 07:46 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, if you want to block to SSH2, you use "Protocol 2" in your config file | 07:46 |

| Decepticon | superfirelord42, i already have Protocol 2 in my sshd_config so im not sure whats wrong | 07:48 |
| haelen | Hi. I have a problem with xine (I think) ... | 07:48 |
| Ahadiel | CyberCod, This is a longshot, but maybe try this: DISPLAY=:0.0 audacious -blah -blah -- :0 | 07:48 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, that should work... take a look at http://www.g-loaded.eu/2005/11/10/ssh-with-keys/ | 07:48 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 isnt there a way i can test its working ? | 07:48 |
| haelen | Amarok and Movie Player are crashing when I try to play mp3's. | 07:48 |
| haelen | I can play on Miro which uses Gstreamer. | 07:48 |
| btfx | Mine is working fine, but doesn't connect to an AP unless it's REALLY good signal. I have had measly laptop internal cards connect from further. | 07:49 |
| btfx | Anyone? | 07:49 |
| superfirelord42 | btw, Decepticon what is the mode of the .authorized_keys file? if its wrong, then the server doesnt accept it | 07:49 |
| owner_ | and its been there for a while is that normal its at 82% | 07:49 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, let it... | 07:49 |
| owner_ | ok | 07:49 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, sometimes its hard for it to get the status while doing that stuff.. its very complex at some points | 07:49 |
| owner_ | oh ok | 07:50 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, i think i have it.. do chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/* | 07:50 |
| owner_ | good its moving now | 07:50 |
| afana | where can i get a firewall | 07:50 |
| owner_ | i almost got a heart attak | 07:50 |
| Ahadiel | afana, sudo apt-get install firestarter | 07:50 |
| Spaceraver | how do i kill a process with pid 11272?? | 07:50 |
| Decepticon | drwxrwxrwx 2 bizinichi bizinichi 4096 2008-07-19 08:50 .ssh/ | 07:50 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 i have drwxrwxrwx 2 bizinichi bizinichi 4096 2008-07-19 08:50 .ssh/ | 07:50 |
| owner_ | i have not had a decent sleep in four days | 07:50 |
| Jordan_U | Spaceraver, kill 11272 | 07:50 |
| Ahadiel | !firewall | afana | 07:50 |
| ubottu | afana: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 07:50 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, ok, that should be chmod 0700 ~/.ssh | 07:50 |
| Spaceraver | thx | 07:50 |
| btfx | Spaceraver: kill 11272 | 07:50 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, and then chmod 0600 ~/.ssh/* | 07:51 |
| CyberCod | nope, same output | 07:51 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, in order to change it later, you will have to chmod it again... | 07:51 |
| Spaceraver | :( still runs... | 07:51 |
| btfx | Spaceraver: man kill if it fails | 07:51 |
| owner_ | this must be one expensive penguin | 07:51 |
| Ahadiel | CyberCod, -_-, tried mplayer yet? | 07:51 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, reload and try it... thats the one that kept catching me when i was having problems with it... | 07:51 |
| btfx | "man kill" | 07:51 |
| CyberCod | ah well, I'll work on it tomorrow, I'm barely keeping my eyes open | 07:51 |
| CyberCod | my bucket of fail has arrived | 07:52 |
| haelen | Anyone? | 07:52 |
| btfx | Spaceraver: I think you have to kill -9 it or something | 07:52 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 nope... | 07:52 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, you reloaded hte config after doing the modes like that? and it still wouldnt work? | 07:52 |
| CyberCod | thanks a lot guys for trying so hard to help | 07:52 |
| ganes | i installed linux-image & linux-ubuntu-modules in my customised filesystem , why the live cd is not booting if i select the option boot=casper | 07:52 |
| CyberCod | this is borderline bug material | 07:53 |
| ganes | the kernel image i took it from gutsy (2.6.22-14-386) | 07:53 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, are you sure the connecting computer has the right key? | 07:53 |
| btfx | Spaceraver: read this: http://sial.org/howto/shell/kill-9/ | 07:53 |
| Spaceraver | bah... ill just restart the server then... tried to kill it with -9 and using htop... | 07:53 |
| CyberCod | Decepticon: if you changed your keys it won't connect until you go in and remove the old key | 07:54 |
| btfx | don't get too trigger happy with -9 | 07:54 |
| Decepticon | CyberCod i have not changed keys | 07:54 |
| CyberCod | if you updated your ssh packages then you might've | 07:54 |
| superfirelord42 | CyberCod, it never was working the first time | 07:54 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 ive uploaded the key from my debian machine (this is the machine that wants to connect without passwords) with scp ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub bizinichi@myserver.com:.ssh/authorized_keys2 | 07:54 |
| Spaceraver | btfx... i wont... it's just that locale bug im trying to get rid of... | 07:54 |
| CyberCod | ah | 07:54 |
| CyberCod | k | 07:54 |
| CyberCod | I"m out... can't stay awake | 07:54 |
| btfx | Spaceraver: =) | 07:54 |
| CyberCod | nite folks.. good luck | 07:55 |
| btfx | night | 07:55 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, and then we renamed that to authorized_keys | 07:55 |
| Decepticon | yes | 07:55 |
| btfx | Hey guys, my wireless interface only connects when there's a very high signal. Anything I can do to make it work with lower signals? | 07:55 |
| Decepticon | on the ubuntu machine, where i want to login without passwords | 07:55 |
| AemX | lol | 07:55 |
| AemX | cyber | 07:55 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, its close.. we are missing something simple.... | 07:56 |
| superfirelord42 | what? i dont know, but its something simple | 07:56 |
| Decepticon | does it matter i made the keys on my debian machine with ssh-keygen -t dsa | 07:56 |
| Decepticon | instead of rsa | 07:57 |
| Decepticon | and upped the dsa one | 07:57 |
| superfirelord42 | did you ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_dsa on hte debian machine? | 07:57 |
| owner_ | choose software to install | 07:57 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 no i ahve not yet | 07:57 |
| superfirelord42 | i dont think so | 07:57 |
| owner_ | any reccomndatiobns | 07:57 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, that loads it to allow | 07:57 |
| bogeyman | !ntfs | 07:57 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 isnt that supposed to be run on the ubuntu machien (where the sshd is) | 07:57 |
| ubottu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For NTFS write access, see /msg ubottu NTFS-3g or /msg ubottu FUSE | 07:57 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, what are the options? | 07:57 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, nope, thats on the client... it adds it to hte agent | 07:57 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42, my debian machine wants to connect to ubuntu without passwords | 07:57 |
| superfirelord42 | that way it knows to use the key | 07:57 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 im not using that sort of command for my other logins | 07:58 |
| Decepticon | how is it working without that | 07:58 |
| Decepticon | for my other logins on other remote servers | 07:58 |
| gnomefreak | you will/can run into issues taking ssh keys from one set up to another | 07:58 |
| owner_ | alot of software unbuntu software | 07:58 |

| CoolFox | does anybody know where the GNOME theme artwork is kept in the Ubuntu filesystem? | 07:59 |

| CoolFox | i wanna dig up a certain icon | 07:59 |
| Flannel | CoolFox: Which icon? | 07:59 |
| superfirelord42 | gnomefreak, he needs to know the defaults for ubuntu | 07:59 |
| superfirelord42 | gnomefreak, hes doing an alternate install | 07:59 |
| gnomefreak | superfirelord42: defaults of what? | 07:59 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 that command "ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_dsa" run on the debian machine gives "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent" | 07:59 |
| CoolFox | Flannel, no, i really wanna know where its all kept. | 07:59 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, your right, i did get that command confused... | 08:00 |
| gnomefreak | alternate installs same software as destkop | 08:00 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 in any case, ive run that command on the ubuntu sshd computer as well | 08:00 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, and it has the same error | 08:00 |
| gnomefreak | superfirelord42: there is a page on what packages are installed by default for each install and each *ubuntu | 08:00 |
| superfirelord42 | gnomefreak, do you know where that page is for gusty? | 08:01 |
| Decepticon | and ive gotten the message.. of sucess.. wait im looking for the mesasge | 08:01 |
| gnomefreak | superfirelord42: i havent seen it in a year or so so im not sure where it is | 08:01 |
| CoolFox | i wanna start making my own themes, really. | 08:01 |
| Chipsa964 | my sound gets disabled when coming back from hibernation....how can i fix this? | 08:01 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, what options are there... | 08:01 |
| Flannel | CoolFox: that depends on what you're looking for. Try /usr/share/pixmaps or /usr/share/icons | 08:01 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, there should be a ubuntu-desktop | 08:01 |
| CoolFox | k, tnx | 08:01 |
| gnomefreak | i can get it back on monday, or if you give me 10 minutes ill search for it when i get back insaide | 08:01 |
| Flannel | CoolFox: Theres theme tutorials on the net all over. They might solve your first problem too | 08:01 |
| arooni | how do i convert .gsm to .mp3 ? | 08:01 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 yes thats right, i got the same message "Could not open a connection to your authentication agent." when doing ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_dsa on ubuntu machine | 08:01 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, what you could do... you said you have servers doing it correctly... you can compare the config and setup of hte machines | 08:02 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, i have a feeling its something small and simple | 08:02 |
| Decepticon | :( | 08:02 |
| lixtl | 有人吗？ | 08:03 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, the other option, is try to regen the keys.... | 08:03 |
| Decepticon | ive also tried that haha | 08:03 |
| Decepticon | i re created the key on the debian machine, re upped it to ubuntu via scp | 08:03 |
| Decepticon | renamed it to authorized_keys | 08:03 |
| Decepticon | and restarted sshd | 08:03 |
| Decepticon | and tried to login | 08:03 |

| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, it prob is.. did you run that command above? | 08:23 |
| superfirelord42 | specifiying the type | 08:23 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, its using a shell mount command... so that means its going to be less leanient for us | 08:23 |
| giacomo_carissim | the type of sda1? | 08:23 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, yeah, like ext2, or reiserfs | 08:24 |
| giacomo_carissim | what do you mean by type? | 08:24 |
| giacomo_carissim | ooohh | 08:24 |
| giacomo_carissim | ook, its ext3-fs i guess | 08:24 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, parition format.. do you nkow? | 08:24 |
| giacomo_carissim | where do i throw that in? | 08:24 |
| superfirelord42 | ok, then put mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /tmpmnt | 08:25 |
| giacomo_carissim | mount ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt | 08:25 |
| giacomo_carissim | oh okay | 08:25 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, ? i think you need hte -t and tmpmnt instead of hte other | 08:26 |
| giacomo_carissim | hmmm, says JBD: no valid journal superblock found | 08:26 |
| owner_ | i think i have a boot issue | 08:26 |
| giacomo_carissim | and EXT3-fs: error loading journal | 08:26 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, sounds like if its ext3, its blown its beads | 08:26 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, what happened? | 08:26 |
| giacomo_carissim | oh shoot | 08:26 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, are you sure its ext3? | 08:27 |
| giacomo_carissim | positive | 08:27 |
| owner_ | it froze on running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) | 08:27 |
| name_name | when I sign into a network drive it mounts it on my desktop, is there anyway I can prevent this? | 08:27 |
| owner_ | stus ok | 08:27 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, give it a bit... it may not be frozen | 08:27 |
| owner_ | oh ok | 08:28 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, we are in luck.. | 08:28 |
| owner_ | grub | 08:28 |
| giacomo_carissim | yeah? | 08:28 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, busybox has an fsck | 08:28 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, fsck /dev/sda1 | 08:28 |
| giacomo_carissim | oh sweet | 08:28 |
| giacomo_carissim | thats what i was wondering | 08:28 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, wait | 08:28 |
| giacomo_carissim | oh, okay | 08:28 |
| DistroJockey | name_name, mounts it on Desktop or just displays it there? | 08:28 |
| owner_ | sounds like something you wonna eat | 08:28 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, sorry, e2fsck | 08:29 |
| giacomo_carissim | okay | 08:29 |
| giacomo_carissim | will that work even though i have ext3? | 08:29 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, e2fsck /dev/sda1 | 08:29 |
| name_name | displays/mounts, unmount is in the option there | 08:29 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, yeah, its both | 08:29 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, still frozen? | 08:29 |
| name_name | but whenever I got to it in network (i.e smb://) it shows up again | 08:29 |
| l815 | with swappiness, set the number higher for systems with a lot of ram (2gb my case)? | 08:29 |
| name_name | I'd like my desktop unmessy | 08:30 |
| DistroJockey | name_name, you could try using gconf-editor and goto apps - nautilus - desktop and untick volumes_visible | 08:30 |
| AemX | !seen idk | 08:30 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about seen idk | 08:30 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, does it seem to work? | 08:30 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, still frozen? | 08:30 |
| giacomo_carissim | says e2fsck: not found | 08:31 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, ok, fsck /dev/sda1 | 08:31 |

| owner_ | but my hd lights and not showing any activity | 08:31 |
| giacomo_carissim | im downloading knoppix so i can do this... but i was wondering if there was a way to do it in busybox | 08:31 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, this is a really cut down version then, hehe... im looking at http://busybox.net/downloads/BusyBox.html | 08:31 |
| superfirelord42 | says it should have it | 08:32 |
| giacomo_carissim | which i dont understand why it wouldn't with as many pepole that have had this same problem | 08:32 |
| giacomo_carissim | yeah | 08:32 |
| owner_ | ok blnak screean | 08:32 |
| giacomo_carissim | ubuntu must not care | 08:32 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, do you still have the live cd? | 08:32 |
| giacomo_carissim | well, im not at my house atm, im visiting family, so i dont have it | 08:33 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, actually, they do, they are not supposed to crash into busybox... if it does.. they expect something simple | 08:33 |
| name_name | <DistroJockey> =) thanks that worked | 08:33 |
| giacomo_carissim | :) | 08:33 |
| DistroJockey | name_name, cool, you're welcome | 08:33 |
| pierre_ | hello all. major problem with my RAID+LVM... i have(had) RAID5(3 disk) /dev/mod0 ->mapped to phy vol/logical vol->formatted to JFS and mounted at /media/mydata. one of the disks failed, and when i replaced it, restarted, all the raid/LVM entries were gone!! i am trying to manually put entries in raidtab etc , but it doesn't seem to work. which files should i edit so tha i can start with the2 disk RAID5 under depcreated mode. any help is deeply appreciated | 08:33 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, well basicly, any bootable cd with fsck... | 08:33 |
| name_name | it got rid of two external drives I have | 08:33 |
| DistroJockey | name_name, yep | 08:33 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, has this computer been injured recently? or any possiblity of a failing hardrive | 08:33 |
| name_name | but I can add those with launchers | 08:33 |
| ganes | what is file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed why we need this | 08:33 |
| name_name | right? | 08:33 |
| superfirelord42 | its strange for a fs to spontaniously explode | 08:33 |
| giacomo_carissim | i dont think so, everything was working fine an hour ago | 08:34 |
| ganes | what is file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed why we need this in isolinux.cfg file | 08:34 |
| DistroJockey | name_name, they are still mounted, just no longer visible on the Desktop | 08:34 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, give it a bit | 08:34 |
| snarkster | i have 2 computers that boot directly into busybox from live cd | 08:34 |
| giacomo_carissim | well, it froze sorta, and i ended up hardbooting superfirelord42 | 08:34 |
| Spiro | How do I install a driver for my netwrok card? | 08:34 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, was it updating when it froze or something? | 08:34 |
| Spiro | How do I install a driver for my netwrok card? | 08:34 |
| mad_max02 | should I use update or envy to update nvidia driver ?? | 08:34 |
| superfirelord42 | Spiro, what is your network card | 08:34 |
| superfirelord42 | Spiro, what is your network card | 08:34 |
| giacomo_carissim | but yeah, fsck, e2fsck, and fdisk didn't show up under the help menu under busybox | 08:34 |
| bogeyman | hey guys got a ? is there a firewall installed by default in 8.04 which would cause me to have unopen ports? | 08:35 |
| giacomo_carissim | no, it wasn't updating | 08:35 |
| l815 | is there a better kernel image for intel core duo than the generic? | 08:35 |
| DistroJockey | name_name, yeah, a launcher will do the job (I use a command like: nautilus /mnt/sdb1) | 08:35 |
| Spiro | nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev f3) | 08:35 |
| Flannel | l815: no | 08:35 |
| giacomo_carissim | i was just chatting and playing a game under wine | 08:35 |
| Spiro | superfirelord42, nVidia Corporation CK804 Ethernet Controller (rev f3) | 08:35 |
| l815 | Flannel, ok, thanks | 08:35 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, well its not uncommon for this to happen, i had a box go through a hard boot, lost its fstab file and wouldnt finish booting | 08:35 |
| superfirelord42 | it was a fedora.... | 08:35 |
| giacomo_carissim | oh | 08:35 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, it just doesnt like hard boots.... | 08:35 |
| giacomo_carissim | yeah | 08:36 |
| snarkster | haha fedora... the windows of linux | 08:36 |
| superfirelord42 | sorry, hard reboots | 08:36 |
| giacomo_carissim | this is the first time this has ever happened to me | 08:36 |
| giacomo_carissim | just strange | 08:36 |
| superfirelord42 | snarkster, yeah, it was when i was just getting into linux... | 08:36 |
| giacomo_carissim | ill know not to do it again | 08:36 |
| bogeyman | does ubuntu come with a firewall by default? | 08:36 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, well, hopefully it wont be the last... | 08:36 |
| bogeyman | bc i got unopen ports hooked direct to modem | 08:36 |
| bogeyman | makes no sense | 08:36 |
| owner_ | ok igoing to reboot again | 08:36 |
| superfirelord42 | bogeyman, i dont think it does... but i think you can apt-get install firestarter | 08:36 |
| snarkster | i have an awesome puter in houston that has fedora 8 on it.. | 08:37 |

| pierre_ | ed | 08:37 |
| bogeyman | hmm wonder why i got un open ports then | 08:37 |
| snarkster | fedora is the only drawback for it. | 08:37 |
| superfirelord42 | bogeyman, do an sudo apt-get install firestarter | 08:37 |
| giacomo_carissim | why fedora? | 08:37 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, give it a bit | 08:37 |
| luser | ubuntu sycks linux sucks | 08:37 |
| giacomo_carissim | if i wasnt using ubuntu, i'd probably use debian | 08:37 |
| DistroJockey | bogeyman, by default firewall is not enabled, but there are also no listening ports | 08:37 |
| superfirelord42 | snarkster, its not really a bad os, i just didnt like it... | 08:38 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, i use both... :P | 08:38 |
| Chrysalis | how do you match all files in a directory with "*"? * doesnt seem to pick up '.' hidden files | 08:38 |
| bogeyman | so i gotta install firestarter and open em huh? | 08:38 |
| Jordan_U | Chris|, ".* *" | 08:38 |
| superfirelord42 | bogeyman, its a popular tool for confuring it... | 08:38 |
| DistroJockey | bogeyman, or use ufw which should be there already | 08:38 |
| superfirelord42 | ufw? | 08:38 |
| Jordan_U | !ufw | superfirelord42 | 08:39 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ufw | 08:39 |
| DistroJockey | superfirelord42, yep | 08:39 |
| superfirelord42 | DistroJockey, when did they start putting that in? | 08:39 |
| snarkster | i didnt know there was an installed firewall by default. hmm i have no problem connecting anything | 08:39 |
| giacomo_carissim | man, g3 sucks this year... i dont want to buy any of the systems :\ | 08:39 |
| Jordan_U | superfirelord42, Uncomplicated FireWall | 08:39 |
| superfirelord42 | !info ufw | 08:39 |
| DistroJockey | superfirelord42, Hardy maybe earlier, not sure | 08:39 |
| ubottu | ufw (source: ufw): program for managing a netfilter firewall. In component main, is standard. Version 0.16.2.1 (hardy), package size 22 kB, installed size 204 kB | 08:39 |
| FloodBot1 | !netsplit | 08:39 |
| 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 | 08:39 |

| snarkster | firewall not loaded by default | 08:41 |
| owner_ | it wants me to use sudo command | 08:41 |
| ogzy | is there any way ti decrease the backlight voltage to make it dim? | 08:41 |
| superfirelord42 | DistroJockey, must have been hardy, i would remember it from the others... | 08:41 |
| owner_ | i am not good at that | 08:41 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, for what? | 08:41 |
| DistroJockey | superfirelord42, yeah. probably | 08:42 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, do you see a graphical desktop? | 08:42 |
| Jordan_U | ogzy, Right click a panel and add the backlight applet | 08:42 |
| owner_ | no | 08:42 |

| superfirelord42 | owner_, login... | 08:43 |
| giacomo_carissim | i thought nvidia made video cards, not ethernet... but maybe im just noob | 08:43 |
| ogzy | Jordan_U, is it backlight applet or brightness applet? i brightness one it is not working for me i am just able to change the brightness using nvidia-setting which is not what i want, want a dimmer screen | 08:43 |

| superfirelord42 | owner_, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 08:44 |
| CaptainMorgan | how can I increase the number of terminal/bash history lines? I'm not looking for scrolling lines, which can be set in the terminal profile gui... but when I do: -bash-3.20$ history, it only shows appox 500 lines... this is a product of bash correct? and not terminal? | 08:44 |
| Jordan_U | ogzy, Yes, I meant the brightness applet, not sure what to try if that doesn't work | 08:44 |
| owner_ | I think i probably did no choose to install a desktop | 08:44 |
| CaptainMorgan | ie: the "history" command | 08:44 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, thats what that command fixes... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 08:45 |
| ogzy | Jordan_U, i have been searching for different things but couldn't find a solution yet | 08:45 |
| giacomo_carissim | i uninstalled ubuntu-desktop one time... that was crappy | 08:45 |
| owner_ | ok should i type thaat and where | 08:46 |
| superfirelord42 | in the console | 08:46 |

| superfirelord42 | owner_, when it asks yes or no, tell it yes.... | 08:49 |
| owner_ | yes | 08:49 |
| mkquist | owner_: might take a bit of time | 08:49 |
| owner_ | ok | 08:49 |
| giacomo_carissim | hahaha | 08:49 |
| DistroJockey | Landon, you could try editing /etc/gnome/defaults.list to set what you want | 08:49 |
| giacomo_carissim | did he just uninstall gnome? | 08:49 |
| superfirelord42 | owner_, when it finishes and gives you a line, tell it halt -p | 08:49 |
| mkquist | how are u online if u dont have gui? | 08:49 |
| superfirelord42 | giacomo_carissim, no, he did not.. he forgot to select it | 08:50 |
| Landon | DistroJockey: thanks! that's exactly what I needed | 08:50 |

| ampedesign | i actually just got ubuntu up and running, i had to upgrade my BIOS first though | 08:52 |
| giacomo_carissim | oh god, bios scares me | 08:53 |
| DistroJockey | !yay | ampedesign | 08:53 |

| CaptainMorgan | how can I increase the number of terminal/bash history lines? I'm not looking for scrolling lines, which can be set in the terminal profile gui... but when I do: -bash-3.20$ history, it only shows approx 500 lines... this is a product of bash correct? and not terminal? | 08:53 |
| CaptainMorgan | ie: the "history" command | 08:53 |
| ampedesign | yeah, for some reason without the latest BIOS version, the mouse would freeze, but now that problem is solved | 08:53 |
| giacomo_carissim | CaptainMorgan: what terminal are you using? | 08:53 |
| DistroJockey | CaptainMorgan, found this in man history: int history_max_entries The maximum number of history entries. This must be changed using sti‐fle_history(). | 08:54 |
| CaptainMorgan | giacomo_carissim, Accessories > Terminal | 08:54 |
| CaptainMorgan | DistroJockey, found that too.. but not sure how to make changes... | 08:54 |
| DistroJockey | CaptainMorgan, me either sorry :( | 08:54 |
| nonZero | Hi all! anybody knows how to restart usb devices? my webcam is not detected my lsusb hangs (but full restart will solve this) | 08:55 |
| CaptainMorgan | nonZero, mount/umount ? | 08:55 |
| ampedesign | if your usb is hanging, consider upgrading the bios, that just solved my problems | 08:56 |
| Crshman_ | hi all, is there something i have to do to get the emerald theme manager to download themes? | 08:56 |
| ampedesign | but maybe you don't want to try something that drastic | 08:56 |
| nonZero | CaptainMorgan, video is not mounted AFAIK | 08:57 |
| zachera | Can I get support here for Ubuntu Server Edition? Or is that a different channel? | 08:57 |
| CaptainMorgan | is it usb? it *should* be mounted nonZero check in /dev or run the mount command without any switches | 08:57 |
| DistroJockey | Crshman_, there are no emerald themes in the default repos. I guess you need to find and add a repo that has them. (Not sure why they aren't there when emerald is though) | 08:57 |
| CaptainMorgan | zachera, what is your question ? | 08:58 |
| CaptainMorgan | zachera, or problem, rather... | 08:58 |
| zachera | Where can I find my USB flash drive? | 08:58 |
| Crshman_ | i had it on another computer and i just re-found the post on the forums that shows me how to do it....something about an SVN this that or the other...thanks for your help though | 08:58 |
| zachera | I plugged it into my server. | 08:58 |
| zachera | It's not in /media | 08:58 |
| zachera | :| | 08:58 |
| === strange is now known as monkeyboy | ||
| DistroJockey | Crshman_, no problem. There may also be a .deb somewhere that won't require SVN | 08:59 |
| zachera | CaptainMorgan: To rephrase a bit: How do I access files from a USB flash drive I plugged into my server? | 09:00 |
| CaptainMorgan | zachera, I'm echoing myself tonight... I just told ampedesign to try running the mount command without any switches to find mounted devices | 09:00 |
| zachera | CaptainMorgan: How do I run the mount command? How does it work, that is. | 09:00 |
| CaptainMorgan | zachera, use google please... commands are run in a terminal - if your usb device is not showing up on the interface upon plugging it in, something is wrong inside your system - for internal work, learn to use the terminal ;) | 09:01 |
| zachera | CaptainMorgan: There is no interface. | 09:02 |
| CaptainMorgan | actually, it could also be your device too.. | 09:02 |
| zachera | It's SSH... server edition. | 09:02 |
| zachera | slushpuppy\: :O | 09:02 |
| DistroJockey | zachera, and also check man pages of commands you don't know about (e.g. man mount ) | 09:02 |
| Polysics | meee miser | 09:03 |
| bluef00t | is there any way to invert the colors on screen?? | 09:03 |
| Polysics | anyone has had all sorts of weird looping problems with mod_rewrite on apache on 8.04? | 09:03 |
| slushpuppy\ | zachera: :o | 09:03 |
| DistroJockey | bluef00t, yes | 09:03 |
| bluef00t | DistroJockey: How can I do it?? | 09:03 |
| zachera | DistroJockey: How do you exit the manual.... | 09:04 |
| ^Azerthoth | q | 09:04 |
| DistroJockey | bluef00t, the whole GUI or just a terminal? | 09:04 |
| DistroJockey | zachera, q | 09:04 |
| zachera | Thanks. | 09:04 |
| bluef00t | whole GUI. | 09:05 |
| Chrysalis | hmm, what does it mean when a package is no longer on the servers? looks like they replaced libungif with giflib but pacman wont do anything about it | 09:05 |

| leoncamel | hey. folks. how can I detect the encoding of a file ? I can detect the file encoding by "vim" currently. use the ":set" and it show the "fileencoding". is there any other tools could detect the file encoding ? | 09:05 |
| bluef00t | DistroJockey: That requires compiz right?? I dont wanna use compiz. It makes my comp really slow. | 09:06 |
| DistroJockey | bluef00t, it's a plugin that compiz adds | 09:06 |
| bluef00t | DistroJockey: Any other method, without using compiz?? | 09:07 |
| DistroJockey | bluef00t, the only other way would be to change your theme | 09:07 |
| DistroJockey | bluef00t, System - Preferences - Appearance | 09:08 |
| bluef00t | I dont wanna do that. Ill try something else then. | 09:08 |

| bogeyman | interesting ubuntu actually dont run too bad | 09:09 |
| * bogeyman likes | 09:09 | |
| joe_chat | hi all, just after grub kicks in there is an unrecognized partition is there a place where the boot log is saved | 09:09 |
| bluef00t | sisto: trying to invert screen colors. I like to read white text on black background. | 09:09 |
| bogeyman | im loving compiz fusion | 09:09 |
| fwaokda | how can I edit my grub menu so that my ubuntu is my default os and not vista? | 09:09 |
| sisto | bluef00t, oh I see... is intrepid ibex going to have that? | 09:10 |
| mkquist | fwaokda: change the order they are listed...cd / | 09:11 |
| DistroJockey | fwaokda, change the default = 0 line in /boot/grub/menu.lst to the entry you want. 0 = the first title line it sees, 1 the 2nd etc. | 09:11 |
| bluef00t | sisto: no idea | 09:11 |
| fwaokda | thanks | 09:11 |
| l3d | if I install enlightenment in through synaptic I should be able to remove it fine with no bad side effects if I dont like it right? | 09:11 |
| sisto | bluef00t, let me look for some screenshots for you | 09:12 |
| DistroJockey | l3d, theoretically | 09:12 |
| mkquist | l3d: i hope so, cause i'm using enlightenment now... =p | 09:12 |
| ph8 | hey all; i'm copying and pasting three files over a network - the first one gets more of the available bandwidth than the 2nd, the 2nd more than the 3rd etc. - Is there a way to prioritize one particular 'file operation'? (hardy) | 09:12 |
| l3d | so what I should do then is well enough alone huh | 09:12 |
| l3d | lol | 09:12 |
| mkquist | why? | 09:12 |
| lixtl | wo shi zhuogongren | 09:13 |
| lixtl | ni men shi na lire | 09:13 |

| Panda_ | Wow, Xchat 2.8 seem to be much worse than 2.1 | 09:14 |
| l3d | oh here is a good ? why is it when I reformat and install ubuntu and I have to grab the updates why does it only d/l so much and then kill my wireless internet and I have to reboot the router to get it back | 09:14 |
| fwaokda | could someone edit the menu.lst for me so I don't do something stupid and screw it up? I just want my ubuntu as the default -- currently vista is. http://pastebin.com/m27884a47 | 09:15 |
| l3d | that so not fair | 09:16 |
| gnomefreak | !grub | fwaokda one of htese links has instructions for what you want to do | 09:16 |
| ubottu | fwaokda one of htese links has instructions for what you want to do: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 09:16 |

| bogeyman | like which category im confused there is so many | 09:18 |
| bogeyman | like gtx maby? | 09:19 |
| kholerabbi | my default keyring isn't unlocked when I use a timed login? Can I change this? | 09:19 |
| bogeyman | and 1.0 or 2.0? | 09:19 |
| zachera | mount: you must specify the filesystem type | 09:20 |
| zachera | Whats the file type name for FAT32 ? | 09:20 |
| DistroJockey | bogeyman, metacity and icons are the ones I mainly look at for a gnome desktop | 09:20 |
| dorins | zachera: I think it's vfat, try -t vfat | 09:21 |
| bogeyman | ty | 09:21 |
| bogeyman | was curious | 09:21 |
| bogeyman | so gtx wont work? | 09:21 |
| DistroJockey | bogeyman, and gtk 2.0 | 09:21 |
| DistroJockey | 2.x rather^ | 09:21 |
| bogeyman | kk ty | 09:21 |
| DistroJockey | np | 09:21 |
| amon__ | anybody here good with xvmc on an intel 945 | 09:21 |
| fwaokda | i created a menu.lst.old does that mean if for some reason the grub doesn't work after my edit that the system will automatically use this one or is it just there for me to boot with live cd and copy it back? | 09:21 |
| DistroJockey | fwaokda, you will need to copy it back | 09:22 |
| DistroJockey | fwaokda, I'd change you timeout to something like 5 instead of 01 so you have time to change manually if needed | 09:23 |
| bogeyman | ohh nice | 09:23 |
| bogeyman | :P | 09:24 |
| bogeyman | lot better themes then winblows | 09:24 |
| * bogeyman is so glad he switched | 09:24 | |
| fwaokda | DistroJockey, y a I am... trying to figure what all has to be changed to make ubuntu the default os | 09:24 |
| DistroJockey | fwaokda, just the default = 0 to default = 1 probably | 09:25 |
| joe_chat | why cant i connect to dalnet in xchat (identity file) | 09:25 |
| fwaokda | do I have to edit anything at the bottom of the file or just the default number? | 09:25 |
| bogeyman | one thing im wondering if there is a program made to convert xvid to dvd format? | 09:25 |
| bogeyman | like convertxtodvd on windows | 09:25 |
| DistroJockey | fwaokda, nope, just default and timeout (if you want longer time to chose manually) | 09:25 |
| fwaokda | ok thanks! | 09:25 |
| DistroJockey | no problem | 09:26 |
| bogeyman | i rly dont wanna have to wine it :( | 09:26 |
| bogeyman | there has to be a prog made | 09:26 |
| bogeyman | lol | 09:26 |
| DistroJockey | bogeyman, I'd google something like: convert xvid to dvd ubuntu | 09:27 |
| elkbuntu | does lvm require journaling or is a non-journaling fs (such as ext2) fine? | 09:27 |

| meoblast001 | i have cups set up on my server and on my computer to use the server as a print server... im getting one problem... when i connect on my server with localhost:631 everything works..... when i connect on this laptop with 192.168.1.100:631 it fails | 09:30 |
| meoblast001 | how do i fix this? | 09:30 |

| kaktuskatta | if you type sudo chmod +ax /path/ how does that work out for you? | 09:30 |
| fulio | Hi Everyone, can someone help tell me how to install pidgin on ubuntu 7.04 | 09:30 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: i know a website | 09:31 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: one sec | 09:31 |
| fulio | meoblast001, ok | 09:31 |
| kaktuskatta | I need help with the following error message: Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume 'usbdisk'. | 09:31 |
| kaktuskatta | an external disk | 09:31 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: http://www.getdeb.net/app/Pidgin | 09:31 |
| fulio | meoblast001, i have gaim running but i want to install gfire which pidgin requires | 09:31 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: try the gutsy and hardy versions | 09:31 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, what command did you issue? | 09:32 |
| kaktuskatta | dmesg gives [ 104.014358] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk | 09:32 |
| kaktuskatta | [ 104.034254] sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0 | 09:32 |

| kaktuskatta | [ 104.704373] Unable to identify CD-ROM format. | 09:32 |
| kaktuskatta | that's the end | 09:32 |
| fulio | meoblast001, will it work for 7.04? | 09:32 |
| kaktuskatta | I could post the entire thing, but I forgot the link for the paste site | 09:32 |
| kaktuskatta | it's an auto-mount function | 09:32 |
| DistroJockey | !paste | kaktuskatta | 09:33 |
| ubottu | kaktuskatta: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 09:33 |
| kaktuskatta | It works fine if i type sudo mount -t ext2 /path/ | 09:33 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: one of them will most likey work.... if not... you'll have to find the dependencies it cant get off the ubuntu package website | 09:33 |
| kaktuskatta | the thing is that the comp doesn't recognise the correct file system.... | 09:33 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: until you have every unsatisfiable package (packages not in 7.04) | 09:33 |
| fulio | meoblast001, ok ty. | 09:33 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: everytime i've done it it only requires me to it a few times... like 2 extra packages | 09:33 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: if it says anything about libc6.... i havent found a way aorund that | 09:34 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28413/ | 09:34 |
| fulio | meoblast001, so then i would have to upgrade to gutsy or hardy? | 09:34 |
| meoblast001 | but i only have problems with that for backwards compatibility not forward compatibility | 09:34 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: or use pidgin source | 09:34 |
| bogeyman | sweet deevede works nicely | 09:34 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: which i can help you with.... i got good at it recently | 09:34 |
| meoblast001 | pidgin source will work on pretty much anything | 09:35 |
| fulio | meoblast001, you should help me then =D | 09:35 |
| meoblast001 | well try the deb first | 09:35 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, was this CD created on another system and maybe a multi session or not closed? | 09:35 |
| fulio | meoblast001, question; will gaim work with gfire? | 09:35 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk -->voilla | 09:35 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: dont know what gfire is.. ill check | 09:35 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, ok, not CD, sorry | 09:36 |
| fulio | meoblast001, gfire = xfire | 09:36 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: :) | 09:36 |
| kaktuskatta | That's the main issue :) | 09:36 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: hmmm... it looks like it does | 09:36 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: i am curious why your on Fiesty though lol | 09:36 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: Manual mount works perfect, automount does not on this comp.... :( Works fine on another one though | 09:36 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, sounds like a wrong entry in /etc/fstab to me | 09:36 |
| kaktuskatta | yup | 09:37 |
| kaktuskatta | but where to begin? | 09:37 |

| === kenami is now known as Quenami | ||
| meoblast001 | fulio: O_o if you would have upgraded when gutsy came out the upgrade wouldnt have lost anything | 09:37 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: a ubuntu upgrade is far different from a windows upgrade | 09:37 |
| === Quenami is now known as quenami | ||
| meoblast001 | although sudo apt-get dist-upgrade might still work | 09:38 |
| meoblast001 | i think thats the command | 09:38 |
| === quenami is now known as qenami | ||
| fulio | meoblast001,so if i upgrade from fiesty to gutsy would i loose the things or would it stay the same? | 09:38 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28414/ | 09:39 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: well upgrading up from feisty to hardy will be harder now that hardy is out.... you would need an alternative install cd of ubuntu gutsy.... then stick it in your drive.... upgrade off that.... then upgrade to hardy from that | 09:40 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: /dev/sda1 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec :P | 09:40 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: unless for somereason it has an upgrade option in your update manager | 09:40 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, yep, that looks to be the one | 09:41 |
| fulio | meoblast001, is there way were i can save everything i have now and stick in a hardy cd which i have | 09:41 |
| meoblast001 | hmmmm | 09:41 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, usb drive? | 09:41 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: So I switch that line with /dev/sda1 /media/usbdisk ....? | 09:42 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: Indeed | 09:42 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: not sure..... i know you can do this... if you have a big enough flash disk... you can copy your entire home directory into it | 09:42 |
| meoblast001 | fulio: rename some files.... like .gaim should be .purple | 09:42 |
| stefan_ | hey | 09:42 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, I believe the udf,iso9660 is the bit confusing it | 09:42 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, but yeah, that location change also | 09:43 |
| fulio | meoblast001, k | 09:43 |
| meoblast001 | why cant i connect to cups from anything other than localhost? | 09:43 |
| meoblast001 | im so confused | 09:43 |
| meoblast001 | not even 192.168.1.100 will work | 09:43 |

| bogeyman | stuck at setting up gnomebaker | 09:43 |
| meoblast001 | cups is failing on me | 09:43 |
| stefan_ | ive got a wireless-lan problem. i have 8.04 running on a thinkpad t41. everthing worked fine until i a few days ago, synaptic installed about 89 updates. since then there is no wlan-device in networkmanager oder ifconfig | 09:44 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: What should I replace udf with? | 09:44 |
| DistroJockey | meoblast001, check /etc/cups/cupsd.conf | 09:44 |
| meoblast001 | ahhh | 09:44 |
| meoblast001 | found it | 09:44 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, I'd comment out that line totally (#) | 09:44 |
| zoreau | how come the search function in nautilus is worthless? and how do I get it to find anything without using gksu nautilus and then searching | 09:45 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: And add no replacement? Hope that it detects the info correctly? | 09:45 |
| meoblast001 | gots me a 403 error | 09:45 |
| meoblast001 | lets see if it stil prints though | 09:45 |

| Tazergnome | Hey #ubuntu, My system crashed I'm in need of some help. | 09:47 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, make a backup just incase, but you are only going to comment it out and not delete it :) | 09:47 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: Hmm.....might be the fact that this comp has 2 CD-ROM drives | 09:48 |
| zoreau | how do I get nautilus' search to actually do something? it willnever ever find anything | 09:48 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: So maybe they won't work after this.... | 09:48 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: but /dev/sda1 is not a cd-rom... | 09:48 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, they should be fine | 09:48 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, exactly, but fstab is telling it it is | 09:49 |
| kaktuskatta | DistroJockey: I see that now in fstab.....never mind. Thanks for all your help :) | 09:49 |
| DistroJockey | kaktuskatta, you're welcome | 09:49 |
| BlueLaguna | How do I disable ufw? | 09:50 |
| SitUbuntuSit | is there a way to run a command in the terminal and have a pause so that the results are only displayed a page at a time? | 09:50 |
| BlueLaguna | Or at least unblock eth2 | 09:50 |
| DistroJockey | BlueLaguna, ufw disable ? | 09:50 |
| orphean | SitUbuntuSit: whatever command you want to run here | less | 09:51 |
| SitUbuntuSit | orphean, thank you so much :) | 09:51 |
| DistroJockey | BlueLaguna, check out man ufw | 09:52 |
| Phase | I've got a program that needs `mcs`, which I'm guessing to be something related to Mono (as it says to run with "mono <blah>", but apt-get install mono doesn't give me anything. | 09:52 |
| orphean | Phase: apt-get install mono-gmcs | 09:52 |
| orphean | Phase: well wait. if it wants 'mcs' then mono-mcs | 09:53 |
| Phase | Thanks. | 09:53 |
| orphean | Phase: aptitude search <pkg> works well for this kind of crap | 09:53 |

| BlueLaguna | DistroJockey: The thing is, it's still starting at boot | 09:55 |
| BlueLaguna | Even after I do that | 09:55 |
| BlueLaguna | DistroJockey: and /etc/ufw/ufw.conf has it set to disabled | 09:55 |
| DistroJockey | BlueLaguna, hmm | 09:55 |
| BlueLaguna | DistroJockey: Nothing shows up when I do ps aux | grep ufw | 09:55 |
| BlueLaguna | but... | 09:56 |
| DistroJockey | BlueLaguna, what do you see when it starts? Or how are you seeing that? | 09:56 |
| BlueLaguna | I'm trying to share a connection | 09:56 |
| DistroJockey | ahh | 09:56 |
| BlueLaguna | but it doesn't work until I do /etc/init.d/ufw stop | 09:56 |
| BlueLaguna | Which shouldn't be started in the first place... | 09:56 |
| BlueLaguna | but it stops anyway... | 09:56 |
| BlueLaguna | and when I do /etc/init.d/ufw start, it complains that it's disabled | 09:56 |
| DistroJockey | BlueLaguna, odd. To be honest I've never really played around with it | 09:57 |

| meoblast001 | jeeves__: i had the install disk but gave it to a friend who never used it =( | 10:17 |

| jeeves__ | so are you running some systems as a VM? | 10:20 |
| jeeves__ | Scorp_, here, try this one. | 10:21 |

| === Brunera is now known as Bruners | ||
| Bonfirefliz | Hi Jeeves | 10:22 |
| jeeves__ | Bonfirefliz, so what is it that you're trying to do? | 10:23 |
| Bonfirefliz | When I am logged into VPN, I want to bypass the vpn connection for chat (gtalk) ports | 10:23 |
| Bonfirefliz | so I figured I could just forward the gtalk port to eth0 instead of the vpn interface | 10:23 |
| jeeves__ | Bonfirefliz, ok, so you want all of the data (except the gtalk data) to flow through the VPN? | 10:23 |
| Bonfirefliz | yeah | 10:24 |
| Bonfirefliz | im using vpnc | 10:24 |
| meoblast001 | jeeves__: should i get edubuntu live cd or ubuntu? | 10:24 |
| === master_o1_master is now known as master_of_master | ||
| jeeves__ | Bonfirefliz, yea, I'm thinking that you could set up an IP rule to forward data on a specific port range to the eth0 (or whatever the adaptor) is, and then set a secondary rule to forward the rest of the data through the VPN | 10:24 |
| Bonfirefliz | would I do that via iptables? | 10:25 |
| jeeves__ | meoblast001, standard works better. I've plastered the Ubuntu stickers all over the local MAC user's car along with a "cored" apple sticker set. | 10:25 |
| jeeves__ | Bonfirefliz, as far as I know that's the simplest way | 10:25 |

| jeeves__ | meoblast001, lol, now you're getting into a LOT of stuff that I'd need to know how the network is setup. most of the time the "remote storage" is just a very large SAN that's mapped to everyone, and the systems are configured as "thin clients" to boot off the network.

| jeimuzu | ok | 10:38 |
| jeeves__ | jeimuzu, you have to be in the same directory where the file exists. | 10:38 |

| netsrot | DistroJockey: free tells me I have a lot of swap, and I think the kinit error at boot is before it starts logging? | 10:48 |
| lordmetroid | Could anyone have any idea why my wireless network refuses to login? | 10:49 |

| jeimuzu | jeeves__ the install file is in a folder called zinc-1.1.7 on my desktop | 10:49 |
| wols_ | lordmetroid: there is none and never will be a root password | 10:49 |
| Samiux | lordmetroid, may be your wireless router requires your MAC address | 10:49 |
| DistroJockey | netsrot, I forgot what error kinit gave you and I don't do KDE much | 10:49 |
| Uplink | owner_, System<Administration<Hardware Drivers | 10:49 |
| jeeves__ | jeimuzu, so you'll have to do a "cd zinc-1.1.7", THEN run the install script | 10:50 |

| ubottu | lordmetroid: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 10:51 |

| testdisck2 | is there a ushare channel in here? #ushare is only 2 users | 10:53 |
| netsrot | DistroJockey: I don't what the kinit error means. | 10:53 |
| meoblast001 | testdisck2: what do you need help with | 10:53 |
| jeeves__ | meoblast001, corect. you map the DNS gateway to be the server that's running it. that way, all the systems are channeling it's data through the server that does the package inspection | 10:53 |
| DistroJockey | netsrot, me either really. But what is the issue/reason for asking? | 10:53 |
| meoblast001 | jeeves__: so i can just forget about content control since its already taken care of? | 10:54 |
| testdisck2 | meoblast001: ushare works great, but if I stop my wmvhd movie or restart my 360, it wont resume the movie | 10:54 |
| bonespur | hi is there a better alternative to banshee in ubuntu?? | 10:54 |
| netsrot | DistroJockey: it displays that message just after I select kernel on boot and it makes a wait for about 10secs. | 10:54 |

| testdisck2 | meoblast001: its just a black screen, nothing happens | 10:55 |
| meoblast001 | testdisck2: hmm... i use it with PS3 so i wouldnt know... hmm | 10:55 |
| testdisck2 | meoblast001: hmm oh okay | 10:55 |
| jeeves__ | meoblast001, yea. Dansguardian is a pain in the butt to install and configure. so, as long as you have a content filter installed, just make sure that all the "client" systems are point to it. in reality, it should be ahead of your default gateway to the internet | 10:55 |
| meoblast001 | jeeves__: ok... next step.... what programs are available that allow a teacher to monitor the screens of about 20 computers? | 10:56 |
| DistroJockey | netsrot, I assume it's looking for a resume image on a swap partition. Maybe your /etc/fstab file is not quite correct | 10:56 |
| jeeves__ | meoblast001, on Linux, I'm not sure. | 10:56 |
| meoblast001 | jeeves__: do you have any idea what i should put in google cuz words are comming to me | 10:56 |
| meoblast001 | arent* | 10:57 |
| jeeves__ | meoblast001, ubuntu realtime monitor screen? | 10:57 |
| DistroJockey | netsrot, if the UUID in /etc/fstab does not match what you get from sudo blkid for a particular device (mainly swap) then it may be that | 10:58 |
| Commie_Jebus | can I make firefox trasparent | 11:00 |
| bazhang | Commie_Jebus, using compiz? | 11:00 |
| netsrot | DistroJockey: is there any tool for configuring fstab correct? =) | 11:00 |
| DistroJockey | Commie_Jebus, hold Alt and scroll towards you with the mouse wheel (if you have compiz/Visual Effects enabled) | 11:01 |
| Commie_Jebus | bazhang: yes, but I dont want to make the webpage trasparnt... just the firfox part :P | 11:01 |
| DistroJockey | netsrot, not that I know of (doesn't mean there isn't though) | 11:01 |
| bazhang | Commie_Jebus, the firefox part? the web page not? not sure what you mean there | 11:01 |
| Commie_Jebus | bazhang: I mean... just the toolbars and menus | 11:02 |
| bazhang | Commie_Jebus, you can ask in #compiz but I seriously doubt it-->has never worked for me | 11:02 |
| Commie_Jebus | ok | 11:02 |

| ogzy | Samiux, how will i understand whether is can be dimmed or not? | 11:33 |
| waltervos | Distrojockey: I set up a FAT32 partition to hold personal folders | 11:33 |
| DistroJockey | waltervos, ahh | 11:33 |
| waltervos | I have umask=003 | 11:33 |
| waltervos | Works for all folders except for those that are linked to the personal folders in Vista | 11:34 |
| bazhang | Uplink, after reading the install docs (in docs folder) it seems fairly simple; be sure to have build-essential installed and then follow the instructions there | 11:34 |
| Uplink | bazhang, roger that | 11:34 |

| ogzy | Samiux, gnome-applet is not working either, it even is not flickering nor giving an error, i can set the levet from the gnome-applet but it doesnt effect the brightness | 11:35 |
| DistroJockey | waltervos, links to FAT should be fine, and access to them from Vista should also be painless | 11:36 |
| Samiux | ogzy, oh I see. Try "system" > "preference" > "screen protection" to disable the dimming function. | 11:36 |

| ogzy | Samiux, is it 8.04? | 11:39 |
| Uplink | bazhang, "sudo ./configure; make; make install" | 11:39 |
| Samiux | ogzy, yes, it is 8.04. | 11:40 |
| ogzy | Samiux, i think you are talking about screen saver | 11:40 |
| Lvl21nerd | ok here goes....i have Ubuntu 8.04 64bit....when im installing how do i setup the swap partition? | 11:40 |
| Samiux | ogzy, bingo. My worst translation :-) | 11:40 |
| DistroJockey | waltervos, not sure on bumping rules but it has been a while, so worth a try | 11:40 |
| DistroJockey | waltervos, good luck | 11:40 |
| ogzy | Samiux, so it is activated what should i change at there? | 11:40 |
| waltervos | Thanks! | 11:41 |
| bazhang | Uplink, that was not what the install doc said to do | 11:41 |
| Uplink | bazhang, i dont understand it :( | 11:41 |
| lixtl | ?? | 11:41 |
| emorris | anyone? | 11:41 |
| bazhang | Uplink, what is the purpose of installing this? there may be a better solution in the repos | 11:41 |
| _sam_ | RattX, sorry no luck.. | 11:42 |
| Uplink | bazhang, there is no SARA on the repos | 11:42 |
| Lusule | where can i get help regarding customising my bash prompt? | 11:42 |
| bazhang | emorris, you went to awn home page? | 11:42 |
| _sam_ | apt shows its installing.. but no config files in /etc/asterisk | 11:42 |
| LordMetroid | Bahh, I can find my network but I can not connect to it, It seems that the router refuses the password even though it is correct | 11:42 |
| bazhang | Uplink, I know that; still does not answer my question though | 11:42 |
| DistroJockey | Lusule, #bash probably | 11:42 |
| _sam_ | i'd deleted them after uninstalling | 11:42 |
| Uplink | bazhang, its an audit security scanner :D | 11:42 |
| _sam_ | its an apt-get issue... | 11:42 |
| bazhang | Uplink, what do you need it for | 11:43 |
| Uplink | bazhang, vuln scanning | 11:43 |
| Lvl21nerd | is there a good way to get help with ubuntu in a less...crowded...way | 11:43 |
| Samiux | ogzy, "power management" > "on AC power" > "display" to adjust | 11:43 |
| emorris | bazhang: well i found this page http://wiki.awn-project.org/Awn_Extras but half the links are dead, and it doesn't tell you how to get them | 11:43 |
| RattX | Lvl21nerd - the library? | 11:43 |

| RattX | Lvl21nerd - i'm sure if you ask nicely, you get people to leave the room until the population level was to your satisfaction? | 11:44 |

| Lvl21nerd | RattX : no need to be so rude | 11:45 |
| Uplink | Lvl21nerd, get used to it... it gets worse | 11:45 |
| AaronH | Lvl21nerd, you can just ask you question and ask for help though PM | 11:45 |

| digitaltao | allright guys i used ndisgtk to install some drivers for this new netgear wireless adapter i just got, the drivers install and then the USB adapter shows activity however it is not showing any available networks to join | 11:47 |
| Uplink | bazhang, this is hard bro | 11:47 |
| digitaltao | any ideas? | 11:47 |
| ogzy | Samiux, there is not much thing to try only one part and i tried it already | 11:47 |
| bazhang | Uplink, but you are choosing to install it | 11:47 |
| ogzy | Samiux, is your gnome-applet working? | 11:47 |
| Uplink | bazhang, am quite a bit of a babystep dude | 11:48 |
| Lvl21nerd | 2 hard drives / both SATA II / Vista on one and Hardy 64bit on the other / have yet to get a decent explanation anywhere on the net | 11:48 |
| Samiux | ogzy, I am also using nVidia GForce 8500 GT but I have no similar problem as you. Because I love brighter screen. | 11:48 |
| ogzy | Samiux, i can make brighter too, i am just trying to set a dimmer screen, i am asking again is your gnome applet workin and making yoru screen darker with a low voltage so that you can save power | 11:50 |
| Samiux | ogzy, I tried and it does not work at my side. | 11:51 |
| ogzy | Samiux, so you have a problem | 11:51 |
| Lvl21nerd | ok i guess my next question is how to get flash plugin for firefox to work | 11:52 |

| MaximLevitsky | Lvl21nerd, assuming that you use ubuntu, you just need to install it, just open add/remove applications window select "all avi flashable applications", and search for | 11:55 |
| DistroJockey | Lvl21nerd, I'd solve both issues by removing the Vista HDD and installing 32bit Ubuntu on the 1st HDD (then when done, plug in the Vista drive as the second and add a GRUB entry to boot it) | 11:56 |
| MaximLevitsky | all aviable applications", and search for flash I mean | 11:57 |
| Lvl21nerd | thx DistroJockey....but how do i add the grub entry....sry im very new at this | 11:57 |
| MaximLevitsky | Lvl21nerd: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 11:57 |
| Lvl21nerd | ty MaximLevitsky i will try that | 11:57 |
| jfsc | is there a way to get DD to back up the data on a partition but not the empty space? | 11:58 |
| Lvl21nerd | do i just input that command or do i have to put something else in once that is input | 11:58 |
| MaximLevitsky | Lvl21nerd: I tested that flash works fine on 64-bit too | 11:58 |
| DistroJockey | Lvl21nerd, an entry like the following in /boot/grub/menu.lst should do the job: http://pastebin.com/ma64d0d7 | 11:59 |
| Lvl21nerd | very good ty | 11:59 |
| tinity | etzt aba | 12:00 |

| olimpico | I have a very weird problem since I updated to the last Ubuntu kernel. My LAN card is changing the MAC Address every time I reboot. And every time a new eth(X+1) is detected. Someone has an idea why this is happening? | 12:06 |
| MaximLevitsky | olimpico, it has to be something with udev, try to search the web | 12:07 |
| wols_ | clarezoe: 13:07 <dpkg> If your network card keeps changing its name each time (eth0, then eth1, then eth2, etc) and you are using the forcedeth driver, then edit /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules and replace the MAC address with "00:00:6c:*". | 12:07 |
| olimpico | MaximLevitsky: But do you know how it is possible that the MAC address is modified? | 12:08 |
| olimpico | MaximLevitsky: I though it was fixed | 12:08 |
| MaximLevitsky | olimpico, I was going to ask about this too, this seems to be kernel bug, isn't it | 12:08 |
| JohnC- | hello room, for editing crontab, i used to do "export EDITOR=pico" and then edit the crontab file, is there anyway to permanently set the editor to Pico so that i wouldn't need to type 'export EDITOR=pico' again and again | 12:09 |
| uvok | hello | 12:09 |
| Flannel | JohnC-: in your .bashrc, at the bottom, add "export EDITOR=nano" | 12:09 |
| olimpico | MaximLevitsky: How can I prove or test what is making this? | 12:09 |
| superchicken | hello | 12:09 |
| JohnC- | ok Flannel, nano or pico ? | 12:10 |
| Flannel | JohnC-: nano | 12:10 |
| uvok | I have a question regarding my Wireless LAN. I don't know if it's encrypted: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/28431/ | 12:10 |
| uvok | But actually I set up wpa_supplicant... | 12:10 |
| JohnC- | ok | 12:10 |
| Flannel | JohnC-: pico doesn't exist in Ubuntu, it's a symlink to nano | 12:10 |
| JohnC- | ok ty | 12:10 |
| Flannel | JohnC-: (because pico isn't Free) | 12:10 |
| chloe | hallo | 12:10 |
| MaximLevitsky | olimpico: boot with very minimal system probably with rdinit=/bin/sh | 12:10 |
| ben_ | <JohnC-> you can edit /etc/alternatives , there is a link for "editor" | 12:11 |
| JohnC- | ben_ that sounds too advanced for me ;b | 12:11 |
| wols_ | ben_: don't. use update-alternatives | 12:11 |
| itai-michaelson | i have a win98 iso on my desktop, can i install it with vm-ware or something else without burning it into disc? | 12:11 |
| ben_ | <JohnC-> sorry ;) | 12:11 |
| Flannel | JohnC-: sudo update-alternatives --config editor | 12:11 |
| wols_ | itai-michaelson: only in a VM then | 12:12 |
| JohnC- | okie | 12:12 |
| Flannel | ben_: that's probably nano already though, actually. | 12:12 |
| ben_ | Flannel thanks for the hing | 12:12 |
| ben_ | hint | 12:13 |
| itai-michaelson | wols_ ok so i apt-get vmware and then direct it to install from the directory? | 12:13 |
| wols_ | itai-michaelson: I don't think there is vmware in ubuntu | 12:13 |
| Qhestion | i played around with the xterm settings via the xrdb utility, something (??) went wrong, now the fonts look a bit ugly. disabling TrueType in the xterm menu helps, but how do i make this permanent? | 12:13 |
| wols_ | itai-michaelson: VM software usually can mount ISO files | 12:13 |

| n00b | Hi guys! Before i upgraded to Hardy didn't my mounted drives get an icon on the desktop, but now they does. I thought that Ubuntu only placed icons on the desktop for drives mounted in /media ? | 12:30 |
| zoreau | doesnt matter | 12:30 |
| zoreau | you just wont be able to install a package if you dont haveits dependencies installed | 12:30 |
| golak | i am using fiesty | 12:31 |
| DistroJockey | n00b, check in gconf-editor under apps - nautilus - desktop (untick volumes_visible) | 12:32 |
| LhiQuer | hey, i'm having a very nice little issue... whenever i open the "Appearance Preferences", it freezes and stops working | 12:32 |
| DistroJockey | LhiQuer, that doesn't sound very nice at all | 12:33 |
| LhiQuer | aparrently after some deep searching on the forums, it's to do with the kernel | 12:33 |
| n00b | DistroJockey: But If I uncheck that one, will icons be visible for USB, external HD etc. ? | 12:33 |
| zoreau | anyone know why the search function of nautilus never fins anything, ever, unless i run naut with ''gksu nautilus' and then try to search? | 12:34 |
| DistroJockey | LhiQuer, does it do the same thing if you create a new user and log in and try as that user? | 12:34 |
| LhiQuer | DistroJockey, i'll check | 12:34 |
| DistroJockey | n00b, nope, they will probabably disappear too | 12:34 |
| LhiQuer | ouch... add user is blanked out | 12:34 |
| DistroJockey | LhiQuer, Unlock button? | 12:35 |
| * LhiQuer is ashamed | 12:35 | |

| n00b | DistroJockey: Ok, you don't know any other way? In the earlier version I think it helped to mount the volumes in any other place then /media, but now it seems like it doesn't work anymore.. | 12:37 |
| LhiQuer | hmm, DistroJockey, it works now | 12:37 |
| DistroJockey | n00b, I thought only stuff in /media showed but I may be wrong | 12:37 |

| Skyrail | So neither ubuntu nor SUSE will 'find' my SATA hard drives normally therefore not allowing me to install ubuntu, I've no idea what the problem is, well I guess it's to do with the kernel and drivers, anyone know of any...eugh...work arounds or hacks so I can at least install ubuntu and work from there? | 13:13 |
| DistroJockey | Skyrail, used the Alternate CD? | 13:14 |
| tech_for_you | ben42 what is swat ... iam new in ubuntu | 13:14 |
| Guest88806 | spsneo: i thin yes. | 13:15 |

| Skyrail | mhm, sorry about that, looks like xserver just crashed, at a guess | 13:17 |
| DistroJockey | Skyrail, or legacy something or other | 13:17 |
| ben42 | tech_for_you install the package swat with synaptic and after that you can configure samba with a webbased tool, which is reachable under http://localhost:901 | 13:17 |

| kdavid | Bogh The reason I ask is because when I run a program in wine it appears I am running out of memory | 13:54 |
| vuongngoctrungdu | hi evrybodi | 13:54 |
| Bogh | hypercity: yeah, looks strange, are the files removed when you delete them? | 13:54 |
| hypercity | Bogh: i cant see them anymore but the space isn't freed | 13:56 |
| Bogh | hypercity: have you tried reboot to single usermode and unmounting the drive and run a fsck check? | 13:56 |
| legend2440 | RIT_Steve: i guess some have got it to run with Wine http://anojrs.blogspot.com/2008/03/digsby-on-linux-revisited.html | 13:56 |
| hypercity | Bogh: how do i do that? | 13:57 |
| RIT_Steve | legend2440, not looking to run it in wine, just wondering if anyone had any insider info :P | 13:57 |
| Bogh | hypercity: from terminal type 'sudo 1' this makes your system go in singleuser mode (rescue), next 'umount /dev/sda2' and run 'fsck /dev/sda2', might want to backup important data first ;-) | 13:59 |
| RIT_Steve | what are the most useful irc commands? | 13:59 |
| Bogh | hypercity: sudo init 1 | 13:59 |
| hypercity | Bogh: thx | 13:59 |
| Bogh | hypercity: to exit singleuser mode type exit | 13:59 |
| legend2440 | RIT_Steve: oh ok. do you ever attend any lugor meetings at RIT? i have been meaning to see how they are for a while now | 13:59 |

| klerfayt | Fazayro: this isn't channel to express your feelings, this is to ask technical questions | 14:19 |
| Fazayro | have you tried wine? | 14:19 |
| Himura | no | 14:19 |
| Fazayro | give wine a go | 14:19 |
| Fazayro | i run windows office through it | 14:19 |
| Himura | But, emulation is not so the kind i want to use | 14:20 |
| Bogh | Himura: xmms is much like winamp but like Fazayro says, install it with wine | 14:20 |
| Himura | I'll try xmms | 14:20 |
| Fazayro | does anybody know if itunes will work through wine? | 14:20 |

| === Fazayro is now known as Fzero | ||

| Fzero | will itunes work through wine? | 14:20 |
| Himura | i think | 14:21 |
| Fzero | I will give it a shot | 14:21 |
| Himura | I read a little about wine | 14:21 |
| Himura | It's an windows emulator | 14:21 |
| Himura | That emulats the windows files, to use win applications | 14:21 |
| sansan | yes basically | 14:22 |
| unop | Himura, Wine is not an emulator (infact that is its acronym) | 14:22 |
| Fzero | I'm testing winamp on ubuntu now | 14:23 |
| Fzero | it's installing | 14:23 |
| sansan | but there are natvie mp3 players | 14:23 |
| gluer | fzero: it works | 14:23 |

| === lipsin_ is now known as lipsin | ||
| RIT_Steve | Fzero, why not just use xmms or any of the xmms based players? they can use winamp skins | 14:24 |
| unop | xmms is being phased out | 14:25 |
| sansan | Q: i tried foobar with wine it works fine, but it dont reproduces any music. i read this is becuase i dont have restricted codecs. any ideas ? how can i make it work | 14:25 |

| maltem | candive: "killall metacity" is a command. But actually, "metacity --replace" looks like the easier way to try | 15:08 |

| troythetechguy | The monitor just appears to be extremely bright. I adjusted the brightness on the monitor, but that did not help - that's why I think it has something to do with how the video card or monitor is working with the OS. | 15:12 |

| foo_ | when i used envy it never let me get to X server settings | 15:19 |

| CrocoJet | how do I know that my harddisk (notebook) will not get problems short lifetime in ubuntu 8.04 ? | 15:19 |
| masterclimby | well its got a longer life than windows will | 15:19 |
| CrocoJet | masterclimby, I read that exist one problem .. hdparm .. something like that | 15:20 |
| foo_ | okay guys how should i setup these hard-drives.. they used to be raid+1 total 75 gigs for just the os and i figure thats more then enough for just ubuntu... but i never got the raid setup on install....how would i go bout using the 2nd drive would i beable to just mount it there? | 15:21 |
| masterclimby | hdparm is a command line utility for the Linux operating system to set and view IDE hard disk hardware parameters. | 15:21 |

| bobbyd | mattgman: just extract the 7zip and then compress it with rar | 15:21 |
| bobbyd | mattgman: you could write a little script to do that :) | 15:22 |
| mattgman | bobbyd: says archive manager don't like it | 15:22 |
| bobbyd | mattgman: you need to install 7zip support | 15:22 |
| masterclimby | mattgman: sudo apt-get install p7zip in termenal | 15:22 |
| CrocoJet | masterclimby, do you think that of good idea use "hdparm -B 254 /dev/sda" ? | 15:23 |
| masterclimby | and for rar do sudo apt-get install unrar | 15:23 |
| masterclimby | CrocoJet: what is -B for | 15:23 |
| icqnumber | !rar | 15:23 |
| ubottu | rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 15:23 |
| matt___ | Is there a peice of software that will list all the directories of an http site? Like, on linuxhack3r.com/ there is a directory called Images/, could I find a peice of software that when I type in linuxhack3r.com, it'll show the directories, subdirectories, etc? | 15:23 |
| bobbyd | archive manager should really ask you if you want to install those things if you try and open something that support exists for, but that isn't installed | 15:23 |
| mattgman | thx masterclimby | 15:23 |
| bobbyd | matt___: wget | 15:24 |
| masterclimby | mattgman: no prob | 15:24 |
| matt___ | bobbyd: it'll support that? Never new that, but I'll take a look at the man page | 15:24 |
| milligan | Anyone else that doesn't get sound on i.e youtube? sound works perfectly on everything but flash. | 15:24 |
| candive | maltem, the buttons are back. Thank You Very Much! | 15:24 |
| bobbyd | matt___: use the recursive get options. There has to be a list of files accessible for it to spider, it can't find files that don't have links to them :) | 15:25 |
| matt___ | bobbyd: So lets say I wanted to download everything I could find on linuxhack3r.com/, like a backup, how would i do this? | 15:25 |

| ubunubi | Xzerious: sounds like your gdm config maybe messed up | 15:58 |

| Wolfman2000 | Morning. I am planning on moving my website to a VPS hosting server, where I will have to choose a Linux OS. I've heard some opinions say Ubuntu is a recommended version of Linux for this sort of thing. Can some of you try to explain to me why I should use Ubuntu versus other flavors? | 15:59 |

| caarika | i edited the win98 ver as shown in the guide, but after 5th step, it said Hardware present: NO | 16:01 |
| ubunubi | Xzerious: login to the text tty...and mv ~/.gconf ~/.gconf_old && mv ~/.gconfd ~/.gconfd_old | 16:01 |

| amenado | ohertel-> did you look for a syslog.conf? | 16:13 |
| os2mac | GeekChick|: I honestly don't know the answer to that. | 16:14 |
| ohertel | postfix has a /usr/lib/postfix/master, a pickup and a qmgr in the process list ... | 16:14 |

| os2mac | caarika that would do it. :) | 16:15 |
| td123 | GeekChick|: don't upgrade to 8.10, it's still in alpha. you should be instead looking at 8.04 | 16:15 |
| bazhang | GeekChick|, that is still under development; not released until October-->discussion in #ubuntu+1 | 16:15 |

| ubunubi | LhiQuer: compiz --replace & | 16:16 |

| LhiQuer | i just need to run it so i can see if there are any errors to why it wont start | 16:16 |
| waseidel | it looks than nobody know about squid | 16:17 |
| amenado | waseidel-> not too much, what issues are you having? | 16:17 |
| td123 | GeekChick|: your not upgrading to 8.10 right? cause it will almost certainly break at some point at this stage in developement. | 16:17 |

| whitegourd | amenado, such as social sites like myspace, facebook. Should not be accessed at work. | 16:27 |

| waseidel | whitegourd, look my squid.conf the file /etc/squid/bloqueados r the pages that are locked to navigate | 16:31 |

| snadge | it looks like its stored on the windows ntfs file system.. and uses a seperate boot loader which is not linked to the packaging system? | 16:39 |
| waseidel | whitegourd, I put before the blocked sites than the permited IPs because it firs filter the unathorized sites and if there are permited now it comes to see if the ip its allowed to go internet | 16:39 |

| LhiQuer | Linux joe 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Feb 12 07:42:25 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 16:40 |
| linos | fyrestrtr, pardon my ignorance, but what did you mean by that | 16:40 |
| amenado | snadge-> btw, wubi is pretty recent isnt it? you can even download just the wubi.exe and let it download needed files for install | 16:40 |
| whitegourd | waseidel, do you know of a way to wget a pre-defined blacklist so I can just use it in place of /etc/squid/blacklist? something like "urlblacklist"? | 16:40 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, Linux joe 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Tue Feb 12 07:42:25 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 16:41 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, any reason not to? if you dont like the newer one you can always revert back in grub menu | 16:41 |
| snadge | amenado: wubi is a feature in hardy | 16:41 |
| fyrestrtr | snadge: and the kernel inside the ntfs filesystem is stored in what? Buckets? | 16:41 |
| CarlFK | snadge: grub can read files from the fs - it has some drivers built in | 16:41 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, how do i upgrade? | 16:41 |
| waseidel | whitegourd, i've read about squidguard to make that but i not used yet | 16:41 |
| capiira | hi is there a nice comfortable way to get gnome apps to ask for root password instead of user password ? | 16:41 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, just normal update upgrade | 16:41 |
| snadge | i will reboot and see if the new kernel works, it just didnt on a friend of mines wubi install | 16:41 |
| amenado | snadge-> come again? wubi is for windows install base system not for linux.. | 16:41 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, cant see it | 16:42 |
| whitegourd | waseidel, yeah, I'll have to look deeper into squidguard. | 16:42 |
| fyrestrtr | linos: ping the broadcast address to get a response from all hosts on a network. | 16:42 |
| bazhang | capiira, use sudo not root | 16:42 |
| snadge | wubi just means you can run ubuntu off an ntfs filesystem.. without having to create a dedicated partition for ubuntu | 16:42 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade (in terminal) | 16:42 |
| capiira | i prefer traditional linux way | 16:42 |
| bazhang | capiira, that is not ubuntu way | 16:42 |
| LhiQuer | The following packages have been kept back: | 16:43 |
| LhiQuer | rss-glx | 16:43 |
| LhiQuer | 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded. | 16:43 |
| capiira | maybe by removing the alias to root in /etc ? | 16:43 |
| bazhang | capiira, what do you need root for? | 16:43 |
| waseidel | capiira, what is do you need? | 16:43 |
| capiira | i want to remove user admin rights and let the administra applications ask for root pass | 16:43 |
| bazhang | capiira, that way lies disaster | 16:44 |
| waseidel | like if you get in as root? | 16:44 |
| capiira | for synaptic for example | 16:44 |
| glandu | hi | 16:44 |
| bazhang | capiira, not a good idea at all. | 16:44 |
| tinyardy | hey | 16:44 |
| whileimhere | Is xchat significantly lighter than PIDGIN? | 16:44 |
| waseidel | capiira, thats not a good idea | 16:44 |
| CarlFK | capiira: I think you just want to create normal users that are not admins | 16:44 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, the main reason being that i need my kernel headers to install the nvidia drivers, so i need a newer kernel | 16:45 |
| bazhang | whileimhere, it is very light | 16:45 |
| waseidel | i let's your ubuntu without protection | 16:45 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, envyng-gtk will do that for you iirc | 16:45 |
| LhiQuer | ? | 16:45 |
| amenado | capiira-> but if you are just experimenting and like to pull hairs...go do, just be patient :P | 16:45 |
| db92 | for some reason my synaptic has recommended and unsupported repositories on and the others are off, and i cant do anything about it. any clues? | 16:45 |
| tinyardy | have a ? regarding fdisk here. wondering if anyone would help | 16:45 |
| whileimhere | bazhang: Is PIDGIN that heavy? | 16:45 |
| bazhang | db92, you want to pastebin your sources.list | 16:46 |
| fyrestrtr | whileimhere: pidgins are quite light. | 16:46 |
| fyrestrtr | tinyardy: unless you ask the question, you'll keep on wondering. | 16:46 |
| amenado | tinyardy-> ask away and be specific | 16:46 |
| bazhang | whileimhere, not used pidgin for irc; but since it is multi-use will likely be heavier | 16:46 |
| db92 | bazhang, remind me the dir again? | 16:46 |
| capiira | they way ubuntu is configured the main user could easily break the whole system | 16:46 |
| tinyardy | i am trying to use fdisk to remove the partition on a toshiba laptop (a305-s6858) | 16:46 |
| bazhang | db92, cat /etc/apt/sources.list and paste to paste.ubuntu.com | 16:47 |
| capiira | need to fix this | 16:47 |
| tinyardy | it wont write the partition | 16:47 |
| Ganandorf | hi good day guys my uncle wants to get ubuntu 64 i have 64 bit installed on my system, but my processor is amd his is intel should he download the 64 bit cd for amd, will it work for intel | 16:47 |
| bazhang | capiira, then you are on your own | 16:47 |
| amenado | capiira go ahead try it, but if you get into trouble, there is the option to re-install | 16:47 |
| whileimhere | bazhang Since you know this are there any good light browsers out there that offer similar things to Firefox but are lighter or are they all based on the same engine and thus as heavy? | 16:47 |
| Senbee | /msg NickServ identify hotmay | 16:47 |
| hydrogen | Ganandorf: yes | 16:47 |
| amenado | !who | tinyardy | 16:47 |
| ubottu | tinyardy: 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 :) | 16:47 |
| bazhang | Senbee, do that in server window and not here | 16:48 |
| db92 | bazhang, http://paste.ubuntu.com/28464/ | 16:48 |
| Senbee | Ooops sorry | 16:48 |
| hydrogen | whileimhere: opera! | 16:48 |
| Ganandorf | ok cool thank you hydrogen | 16:48 |
| bazhang | db92, reading now | 16:48 |
| db92 | Senbee, i suggest that you do a password change :PP | 16:48 |
| tinyardy | i was not speaking to someone in particular, just asking for help... | 16:48 |
| whileimhere | Hydrogen: Isnt opera closed source? | 16:48 |
| hydrogen | yes | 16:48 |
| fyrestrtr | tinyardy: what is the partition type? | 16:49 |
| hydrogen | but worth every penny you don't spend to get it | 16:49 |
| whileimhere | Is firefox closed source? | 16:49 |
| hydrogen | no | 16:49 |
| hydrogen | I'm sure jesus will still like you if you use closed source software, however | 16:49 |
| bazhang | db92, 56 and 57 are 3rd party; also you have backports enabled | 16:49 |
| whileimhere | I am not worried about jesus I am worried about Buddha! | 16:49 |
| whileimhere | LOL | 16:50 |
| db92 | bazhang, normally, no i had turned this off in the past | 16:50 |
| LhiQuer | why do i get the feeling that Envy will damage my system? | 16:50 |
| Sansan | whileimhere: you can try ephiphany web browser | 16:50 |
| db92 | bazhang, the 3rd party ones i know :PP | 16:50 |
| LhiQuer | !envy | 16:50 |
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 16:50 |
| Senbee | Sure now I change it | 16:50 |
| Senbee | Thank you | 16:50 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, envyng is supported by ubuntu | 16:50 |
| xiaobao | hehe | 16:50 |
| hydrogen | epihipany uses gecko as well | 16:50 |
| fyrestrtr | bazhang: its not support by ubuntu | 16:50 |
| whileimhere | Sansan for some reason Ephiphany doesn't work with all websites I visit. | 16:50 |
| xiaobao | thank you | 16:50 |
| bazhang | fyrestrtr, that is not correct | 16:50 |
| whileimhere | Is opera free on linux? | 16:51 |
| bazhang | !info envyng-gtk | fyrestrtr | 16:51 |
| ubottu | fyrestrtr: envyng-gtk (source: envyng-gtk): install the ATI or the NVIDIA driver. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.1ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 93 kB, installed size 324 kB | 16:51 |
| fyrestrtr | bazhang: it has community support, which is not ubuntu support. | 16:51 |
| hydrogen | yes | 16:51 |
| bazhang | fyrestrtr, see above | 16:51 |
| Sansan | whileimhere: reaaly ?' oops | 16:51 |
| fyrestrtr | bazhang: I suggest you read !envy | 16:51 |
| whileimhere | Sansan yep. | 16:51 |
| bazhang | fyrestrtr, will be in linux-restricted-modules for ibex | 16:51 |
| emosamurai | I have a weird problem with my computer. My laptop's iwlist detects my home's wiresless router, and I even typed in the password, but it doesn't connect. | 16:51 |
| xiaobao | it is not support// | 16:52 |
| Senbee | Changed ^_^ | 16:52 |
| fyrestrtr | bazhang: then it is not supported. | 16:52 |
| whileimhere | So Opera is free on Linux but not on Windows? | 16:52 |
| bazhang | envy is not fyrestrtr ; envyng is | 16:52 |
| fyrestrtr | whileimhere: its free everywhere. | 16:52 |
| Sansan | whileimhere: you can try IE with wine. :P | 16:52 |
| GC| | This is officially a weird error. i tried "gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade" on the alternate cd and got this error "SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSegmentation fault (core dumped)" | 16:52 |
| fyrestrtr | GC|: you have a bigger problem. | 16:53 |
| whileimhere | Okay so how does Opera stay alive as a closed source web browser if its free? Does it make the user watch ads or something? | 16:53 |
| bazhang | whileimhere, offtopic here | 16:53 |
| GC| | The system is still alive though. | 16:53 |
| LhiQuer | wow, envy chucks errors at me | 16:54 |
| fyrestrtr | whileimhere: opera.com | 16:54 |
| Sansan | there are a lot of freeware closed sourcesoftware. | 16:54 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, dont use envy; envyng is what you need | 16:54 |
| LhiQuer | it' swhat i'm using | 16:54 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, gutsy? | 16:54 |
| GC| | I swear. I should just nuke ubuntu and stay with XP. | 16:54 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, yeah | 16:55 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, restricted drivers manager | 16:55 |
| LhiQuer | GC|, then youa are considered satin | 16:55 |
| LhiQuer | *satan | 16:55 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, nope | 16:55 |
| LhiQuer | 8800gt no can do | 16:55 |
| fyrestrtr | GC|: If you feel so strongly, then do so. Its all about choice. | 16:55 |
| emosamurai | Has no one ever encountered my problem? | 16:55 |
| GC| | fyrestrtr, yah, I'd love to run it but when the network card doesnt work to 1/10th the speed,and distro upgrades fail badly.... | 16:56 |
| fyrestrtr | emosamurai: not me. | 16:56 |
| rtu3478 | GC|: your installed ubuntu version is 8.04 or 7.10? | 16:56 |
| GC| | 7.10 | 16:56 |
| rtu3478 | GC|: okay, that's why the rt2500 card is slow | 16:56 |
| LhiQuer | so i WAS going to upgrade the kernel, so i could get some headers for it | 16:56 |
| LhiQuer | but i need to do that | 16:56 |
| rtu3478 | GC|: the new ralink driver is in kernel 2.6.24 | 16:57 |
| LhiQuer | but i dont know the details of what to do | 16:57 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, look in synaptic | 16:57 |
| emosamurai | Why would my computer detect a wireless network but not be able to log onto it? | 16:57 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, is the essid hidden | 16:57 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, my headers arent there | 16:57 |
| GC| | rtu3478, have they fixed grub's nasty tendency to install itself on the nearest PATA drive rather than the BIOS assigned master (an SATA)? | 16:57 |
| emosamurai | How do I find that out, bazhang? Do I iwlist again? | 16:58 |
| rtu3478 | GC|: don't know. i have only one hard disk in my comp | 16:58 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, that would be set in the router | 16:58 |
| frankg | when I minimize xchat on ubuntu 804 -- I don't see a system tray icon for xchat ?? | 16:58 |

| LhiQuer | bazhang, so how would i go about upgrading it? | 16:58 |
| emosamurai | How do I access my router if my desktop's plugged into it, bazhang? | 16:59 |
| emosamurai | 192.168.0.1? | 16:59 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, any reason not to use hardy? | 16:59 |
| Sansan | yes | 16:59 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, through a java-enabled browser | 16:59 |
| rtu3478 | GC|: and btw, you can always fix grub install errors with a live system and some command line knowledge | 16:59 |
| emosamurai | So, 192.168.0.1? | 16:59 |
| LhiQuer | bazhang, i AM | 17:00 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, you tried yet? | 17:00 |
| javb | is there i way i can play any baseball game in ubuntu? | 17:00 |
| emosamurai | Yeah, the connection times out. | 17:00 |
| bazhang | javb, native or via wine | 17:00 |
| emosamurai | And yet I still have access to the internets. | 17:00 |
| javb | bazhang, anyway, but playable ! | 17:00 |
| javb | any recommendation? | 17:00 |
| === crowbar is now known as johnny_ | ||
| bazhang | emosamurai, wait; you want to use wireless and wired? | 17:00 |
| LhiQuer | brb | 17:01 |
| LhiQuer | changed my hostname | 17:01 |
| Sansan | javb you should search for a native one. if you dont like any try wine | 17:01 |
| bazhang | javb, you can check ubuntuforums gaming section and playonlinux website | 17:01 |
| emosamurai | Okay, here's my setup. My modem's hooked up to my router, my router has a wired connection to my desktop. My desktop's wired connection's working through my router, and yet 192.168.0.1 returns a timeout. | 17:01 |
| emosamurai | My laptop's iwlist detects my router and even its essid, and yet it does not connect. | 17:01 |
| emosamurai | Is it because my router's fubared? | 17:02 |
| LhiQuer | back | 17:02 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, what chipset for the wireless card | 17:02 |
| hydrogen | if your router is foobared, then that maybe the problem | 17:02 |
| fyrestrtr | emosamurai: does your router have DHCP? | 17:02 |
| emosamurai | broadcom. | 17:02 |
| emosamurai | How do I find out if my router has dhcp? It's netgear, so it's pretty much standard. | 17:02 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, what does ifconfig show in terminal; two entries or three | 17:02 |
| hydrogen | emosamurai: if you set the essid of the router does it stay? | 17:03 |
| hydrogen | iwconfig wlan0 essid blah; iwconfig wlan0 | 17:03 |
| LhiQuer | here's why i need the headers... | 17:03 |
| LhiQuer | No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you li | 17:03 |
| LhiQuer | ke the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel f | 17:03 |
| LhiQuer | rom the NVIDIA ftp site (ftp://download.nvidia.com)? | 17:03 |
| emosamurai | @bazhang: it shows four. lo, eth0, wlan0, and wmaster0-00. | 17:03 |
| chazco | Hi... can anyone recommend an app to test hardware (CPU, NICs etc) on Hardy? | 17:03 |
| waseidel | thanks 4 ur help | 17:04 |
| frankg | found my system tray - never mind | 17:04 |
| emosamurai | @hydrogen: I can't access my router, but the essid shows up the same every time I iwlist scan. | 17:04 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, what does sudo dhclient wlan0 return (dhcpoffers or none, sleeping) | 17:04 |
| hydrogen | emosamurai: right, but when you set it does it work? | 17:04 |
| hydrogen | or does it still say off/none | 17:04 |
| \kG | hello can anyone help me setup my wireless card on ubuntu i got a new laptop and im having some issues im not really sure how to setup the wifi | 17:04 |
| hydrogen | does it stay set, not does it work | 17:04 |
| emosamurai | Actually, it doesn't show up on scans anymore. | 17:04 |
| db92 | bazhang, still having trouble with the repos :\ any clues about how to fix it? instead of having backports and updates on alone, i want security and updates instead | 17:04 |
| Ganandorf | hi guys does wine allow you to install yahoo messenger i want to be able to call and use cam so i want to install it on linux or is there a app that does that | 17:04 |

| LhiQuer | lol@floodbot | 17:12 |
| fyrestrtr | emosamurai: then of course 192.168.0.1 won't work, your network is 192.168.1.0/24 | 17:12 |
| bazhang | emosamurai, so try 1.1 for router | 17:12 |
| LhiQuer | there we go | 17:12 |
| fyrestrtr | LhiQuer: update your kernel. | 17:13 |

| takhs_o_asxhmos | any ideas? | 17:46 |
| bazhang | LhiQuer, having the bad sources.list, using envy, along with the wrong kernel, you might consider reinstalling | 17:46 |
| emosamurai1337 | I didn't install anything yesterday. | 17:46 |
| superfirelord42 | LhiQuer, should you what? replace the sources list with the one bazhang said, yes... | 17:46 |
| bazhang | emosamurai1337, update broke it? | 17:46 |

| TheRandom | paf, only Movie Player will play any sound for me. | 18:15 |
| paf | TheRandom, you have a problem with sound too? | 18:15 |
| acke_n | TheRandom, thought amarok was for kde? does it work in gnome as well? | 18:15 |

| j800r | yo, how can a remove an installed deb package that isn't from the package manager? | 18:15 |
| TheRandom | acke_n, it does work for gnome | 18:15 |
| thenotsoemokid | thx | 18:15 |
| acke_n | fyrestrtr: aah banshee might be a good idea thx | 18:15 |
| sebrock_ | fyrestrtr, the 250GB disk is never mounted by uuid. I dont understand... | 18:15 |
| Chipsa964 | thenotsoemokid, http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 18:15 |
| TheRandom | paf, i've got no desktop sound, no sound in any apps and none in VLC or Amarok | 18:15 |
| TheRandom | paf, Xine is having a hissy fit i think | 18:16 |
| acke_n | fyrestrtr: i hope it works on ubuntu 6.06 for my old mac mini ;) | 18:16 |
| === acke_n is now known as acke | ||
| Sansan | acke_n: you should try exile | 18:16 |
| paf | baegle, TheRandom, I tried mplayer and vlc, they don't play any sound | 18:16 |
| fyrestrtr | superfirelord42_: libgtkhtml2-0 you probably also want libgtkhtml2-dev | 18:16 |
| TheRandom | paf, check System->Preferences->Sound | 18:16 |
| superfirelord42_ | fyrestrtr, thanks... | 18:16 |
| TheRandom | paf, and also right click on the sound icon and go preferences (from toolbar) | 18:17 |
| fyrestrtr | sebrock_: what does your fstab say? | 18:17 |
| baegle | paf: nothing plays sounds for me. Basic sound tests don't work, no sound if I cat a file /dev/audio | 18:17 |
| j800r | yo, someone? how do i remove an installed package that isn't from package manager or apt-get :\ | 18:17 |
| Sansan | acke_n: itś a amarok clon for gnome | 18:17 |
| thenotsoemokid | Whitor: http://paste.ubuntu.com/28484/ | 18:17 |
| Chipsa964 | paf, try restarting alsa | 18:17 |
| baegle | j800r: You use the method provided by that package | 18:17 |
| TheRandom | baegle, I get Device or resource busy when trying to do speaker-test | 18:17 |
| Fructose | Anyone know a way to get Tranmission to behave even slightly more intelligent in regards to local data verification? There is NO reason it should be verifying all of the data every time I open it. | 18:17 |
| sebrock_ | fyrestrtr, somehow my disks are beeing mounted as wrong UUID. Looks like my system disk has now gotten the UUID of the 250GB disk. WHich is strange as I have not changed it but the upgrade did I guess | 18:17 |
| anyedie | j800r: if right click uninstall | 18:17 |
| TheRandom | Chipsa964, how does one restart alsa? | 18:17 |
| paf | Chipsa964, how do you do that? I just rebooted. | 18:17 |
| Whitor | thenotsoemokid, thx reading | 18:18 |
| j800r | um, ok.. tnx, i'll try that now | 18:18 |
| Chipsa964 | sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart | 18:18 |
| thenotsoemokid | thx | 18:18 |
| acke | Sansan: its not include in the apt-get for ubuntu 6.06 i believe. i might get it from somewhere else? | 18:18 |
| Zmax | hi.. I installed xfce4 but, removing it, I'm not able to remove dipendency not installed explicitely. How can I remove them? Is it possible to automate this process? Thanks. | 18:18 |
| fyrestrtr | sebrock_: this is one reason I stopped upgrading :// | 18:18 |
| Chipsa964 | thats what i do when my sound craps out on me | 18:18 |
| Chipsa964 | might not be the same issue though | 18:18 |
| fyrestrtr | Zmax: try aptitude | 18:18 |
| sdakak | I run ubuntu 8.04 on Dell Inspiron 1525. Since the last few days I am getting this message: usb 1-1: unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start | 18:18 |
| sdakak | usb 1-1: can't read configurations, error -71 | 18:18 |
| sebrock_ | fyrestrtr, what is the other? It actually went fine today except these minor things | 18:18 |
| sdakak | ^ Before the 'reading files needed to boot' | 18:19 |
| fyrestrtr | sebrock_: I always forget to mount /home separately :) | 18:19 |
| paf | Chipsa964, it didn't change anything | 18:19 |
| Whitor | thenotsoemokid, are you certan the winxp install is on the 2nd partition ? | 18:19 |
| Chipsa964 | :( | 18:19 |
| paf | TheRandom, I tried all the "tests" in sound preferences, nothing works. | 18:19 |
| TheRandom | paf, mine work, but nothing else works | 18:19 |
| fyrestrtr | paf: restart alsa | 18:19 |
| thenotsoemokid | well, the xp install read the partition between the ubuntu partition and the swap space | 18:19 |
| Chipsa964 | fyrestrtr, he already did that | 18:20 |
| baegle | TheRandom: speaker-test just keeps testing Front Left over and over | 18:20 |
| HappyUser | awfully sorry the previous paste is not intentionaly | 18:20 |
| sdakak | Who put 'tt' in ubottu? | 18:20 |
| sebrock_ | fyrestrtr, :) why mounting by uuid anyway? I'm guessing I could just remove the UUID and uncomment the /dev/sdc1 and everythings gonna be fine= | 18:20 |
| Whitor | thenotsoemokid, a quick trial and error thing to do would be to 'e' the line in grub and change the 1 to 2 then 3 then 4 ... just incase its hanging out on some weird partition number | 18:20 |
| TheRandom | baegle, you get sound? | 18:20 |
| Zmax | fyrestrtr, aptitude remove xfce4 removed only xfce4 pkg. | 18:20 |
| agentjon | Zmax - I had that same problem - you uninstall xubuntu-desktop and xfce4-desktop and still you have a bunch of leftover stuff, right? | 18:20 |
| baegle | TheRandom: no | 18:20 |

| agentjon | Zmax - yeah i think aptitude can help you out there...it's "smarter" than apt-get in that regard | 18:22 |
| TheRandom | paf, mine worked for awhile, and now nothing | 18:22 |
| LhiQuer | how come all of a sudden i become arrogant when i boot into windows? | 18:22 |
| fyrestrtr | LhiQuer: ask in #ubuntu-offtopic | 18:23 |
| TheRandom | LhiQuer, because you have experienced a better operating system | 18:23 |
| paf | TheRandom, is your problem related to a recent upgrade? | 18:23 |
| TheRandom | paf, I installed straight to 8.04 | 18:23 |
| LhiQuer | TheRandom, may i add vista | 18:23 |
| paf | TheRandom, my 8.04 was working fine until now. | 18:23 |
| LhiQuer | ok fyrestrtr | 18:23 |
| paf | until this morning's update. | 18:23 |

| baegle | j800r: how did you install it? | 18:26 |
| j800r | via a ubuntu deb package | 18:26 |
| paf | baegle, I tried all of them in "sound preferences", and I tried auto-detect. Nothing worked. | 18:26 |
| superfirelord42 | trigsenior, ? did you tell it to take up the whole drive? | 18:26 |
| LhiQuer | IT HAS DOWNLOADED!!! | 18:26 |
| Sansan | acke: ?? | 18:26 |
| baegle | j800r: what command did you use? dpkg? | 18:26 |

| superfirelord42 | HappyUser, i think there is a command to do a pastebin from the command line, but hte easy way, is copy it, and paste it inside a pastebin, such as pastebin.ubuntu.com | 18:28 |
| legend2440 | j800r: if you installed with a deb package then it will be in synaptic | 18:29 |

| j800r | yo, thanks for the help guys, i got my original deluge version back on and everything's running smoothly again | 18:33 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, because of some package diffrences, it could be quite difficult.. and the livecd method will erase you data... | 18:33 |
| HappyUser | <superfirelord42> Okay here is the url : http://paste.ubuntu.com/28486/ | 18:34 |
| HappyUser | yeah | 18:34 |
| CartoonCat | I know the live cd will, as I asked, 'pain free' | 18:34 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, the best method is to backup your data, delete everything from a fresh install from a livecd and put your stuff pack | 18:34 |
| HappyUser | I think y will enjoy this :-) | 18:34 |
| amenado | CartoonCat-> whats pain free? you take tylenol? :P | 18:34 |
| bazhang | CartoonCat, as in changing repos etc? | 18:34 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, do you have a seperate /home paritions? | 18:34 |

| amenado | Blaze_Boy-> it depends if its supported by ubuntu, | 18:35 |
| paf | baegle, which one was it? | 18:36 |
| CartoonCat | superfirelord42, nope, so its going to be painful. I hate having to get out the backup hd is all. | 18:36 |
| sebrock_ | fyrestrtr, thank you anyway pal :D | 18:36 |
| superfirelord42 | HappyUser, LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose | 18:36 |

| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, sorry, i guess so... | 18:36 |
| fyrestrtr | sebrock_: no problem, glad its sorted. | 18:36 |
| baegle | paf: fresh install | 18:36 |
| CartoonCat | bazhang, yea changing repos would be nice, I didnt think it was likely but worth a shot | 18:36 |
| Blaze_Boy | amenado-> from celeron 2.4 to pantium 3.1 ? | 18:36 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, there is one other way.. but its more painfull | 18:36 |
| fyrestrtr | XTron: have you installed the -dev equivalent? | 18:37 |
| bazhang | Blaze_Boy, anything intel is golden | 18:37 |
| CartoonCat | superfirelord42, we might have diffrent ideas of painful, what ya got | 18:37 |
| amenado | Blaze_Boy-> pantium 3.1 ? ummmm..you try and see | 18:37 |
| paf | baegle, my problem is, most of my devices disappeared this morning after I rebooted after an upgrade. | 18:37 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, in hte live cd, resize your partions, add a /home partition, transfer data, then install... that would transfer youre /home data without using a backup disk | 18:37 |
| paf | :-( | 18:37 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, but unless you *really* dont want to get out your backup disk... thats probably harder... | 18:38 |
| paf | and I don't have any Input Source in Volume Control -> Options | 18:38 |
| superfirelord42 | and a small chance the resize can fail | 18:38 |
| baegle | paf: what got upgraded? | 18:39 |
| paf | baegle, I don't remember. | 18:39 |
| paf | the kernel, maybe? | 18:39 |

| benanzo | I need to forward local connections from port 80 to port 9980 so I can accept SSH connections despite my company using a proxy server than forbids anything but http, https, smtp, pop and imap | 18:41 |
| superfirelord42 | HappyUser, hmm, strange... it didnt accpet the var, do "export LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose | 18:41 |
| superfirelord42 | " | 18:41 |
| baegle | paf: that shouldn't be a software issue. Open up the case and make sure the connections are good | 18:41 |
| paf | baegle, the cable is right, but it seems the upgraded muted the front output, and I don't know how to fix it. | 18:41 |
| superfirelord42 | HappyUser, without the quotes of course... | 18:42 |
| benanzo | I have a computer at home that listens on 9980 for SSH | 18:42 |
| XTron | nope, didn't work =/ | 18:42 |
| XTron | it's troubling because no one seems to know the answer to this issue | 18:42 |
| CartoonCat | superfirelord42, well the issue is that the backups are miles away (and its a holiday weekend here). Maybe ill just wait till next week, im getting a 1tb usb backpack drive for the laptop | 18:42 |

| baegle | paf: weird. Well, I kind of have sound now. so I'm off to poke around some more. later | 18:42 |
| paf | later | 18:42 |
| benanzo | yes | 18:42 |
| baegle | we'll meet again and talk sound | 18:42 |
| amenado | benanzo-> then use port 80 at your home instead of 9980 | 18:42 |
| anyedie | hello all, my all of the folders on my desktop disappeared and i cannot open any folders from anywhere now (expect for terminal) | 18:43 |
| benanzo | Well, I'd rather just have something forward localhost:80 to localhost:9998 so I don't have to restart sshd all the time | 18:43 |
| bazhang | anyedie, did you use gksudo nautilus? | 18:43 |
| glitsj16 | hi all | 18:43 |
| benanzo | is that possible? | 18:43 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, hehe, i want a TB usb drive, im still on a 512... yeah, think your best route it is to wait... | 18:43 |
| anyedie | bazhang: what is that? | 18:43 |
| fyrestrtr | benanzo: iptables can take care of that. | 18:44 |
| CartoonCat | superfirelord42, buy.com special for 150 | 18:44 |
| bazhang | anyedie, you have root enabled? | 18:44 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, realy? cool, i will have to look at that, anyways, we are ot.... | 18:44 |
| benanzo | I tried to do it with nc but could never get authenticated after connection | 18:44 |
| CartoonCat | just can not pass it uphehe | 18:44 |
| CartoonCat | ooh my bad | 18:44 |
| amenado | benanzo-> yes use iptables NAT | 18:44 |
| cvelasquez | hi | 18:45 |
| anyedie | bazhang: I have nautilus on, and i just tried sudo'ing on | 18:45 |
| cvelasquez | I just messed up my computer boot | 18:45 |
| anyedie | i booted up this time and my folders were on my desktop, but there icons were different, and when i clicked them they vanished | 18:45 |

| cvelasquez | it won't start | 18:45 |
| overturn | ºº£¿ | 18:45 |
| cvelasquez | any help? | 18:45 |
| DjViper | where is the "extract here..." code stored for nautilus? | 18:45 |
| ph8 | cvelasquez: any errors? | 18:45 |
| anyedie | and now i cannot access anything through a gui and cannot right cilck on my desktop | 18:46 |
| benanzo | instead of messing with iptables (which I'm really not very familiar with) can this be done using SSH port forwarding? | 18:46 |

| bazhang | anyedie, dont do that | 18:46 |

| sam555 | hello all! | 18:49 |
| sam555 | i just downloaded the iso for ubuntu 8 and was wondering what program I could use to burn it to a cd | 18:49 |
| cvelasquez | ph8: thx for helping. The thing is that I wanted to install ubuntu instead of debian but the computer won't boot CDs (hardware problem, not BIOS, unfixable by now), so I was going to use wubi or sth like that but there was too little space allocated for linux. I tried to expand it but I had to delete linux partitions first, which, I know its a problem but I intended to do everything in the same moment so that when I restarted the computer | 18:49 |
| cvelasquez | go into the installer. But vista's shrink option wouldn't allow more than 4 GB when I have almost 40 free GB, so I thought maybe I should restart. When I realized what a terrible mistake I had done GRUB was printing error 22. | 18:49 |
| amenado | sam555-> do you have an existing linux on your machine? | 18:50 |
| cvelasquez | ph8: sorry for taking so long | 18:50 |
| CartoonCat | mmm, does the livecd support installing to a USB HD enclosure? | 18:50 |
| sam555 | amenado: no, winxp | 18:50 |
| Dr_willis | sam555, i like the tool 'burnatonce' theres others out also | 18:50 |
| sam555 | amenado: trying to use winxp to burn the iso and then ultimately dual boot winxp and ubuntu | 18:50 |
| sam555 | Dr_willis: thanks! | 18:50 |
| Dr_willis | CartoonCat, i hear it can.. but external usb drives can be.. tricky :) | 18:50 |
| ph8 | cvelasquez: So you're trying to get back into your debian partition? Did you do anything to it in the windows partitionner? | 18:51 |
| === kalpik is now known as icanhascheezburg | ||
| CartoonCat | Dr_willis, true, part of why I asked, i think i have a 100GB hd someplace and I know ive a usb/ide adapter | 18:51 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, it does, but sometimes, computers choose not to obey the bootloader | 18:51 |
| === icanhascheezburg is now known as kalpik | ||
| amenado | sam555-> not sure what windows xp product to burn such iso | 18:52 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, and since a 1TB USB is newer, its more likly to have troubles with the bios | 18:52 |
| sam555 | amenado: Dr_Willis gave me a suggestions, thanks man | 18:52 |
| cvelasquez | ph8: impossible to do so, I deleted that partition and extended vista's to use everything, I'm looking for a way to restore boot, only that. | 18:53 |
| fyrestrtr | cvelasquez: boot with the vista dvd | 18:53 |
| CartoonCat | superfirelord42, I wont be using the TB for booting, its for media storage for the laptop when I travel. | 18:53 |
| fyrestrtr | cvelasquez: and repair the MBR from there. | 18:53 |
| ph8 | cvelasquez: So you want to boot to vista? | 18:53 |
| cvelasquez | fyrestr: I don't have it | 18:53 |
| ph8 | do you know which (hd) device it resides on? | 18:53 |
| cvelasquez | ph8: is the only operating system on the computer right now | 18:54 |
| cvelasquez | but wait | 18:54 |
| cvelasquez | I have now found out that it was able to boot CDs | 18:54 |
| superfirelord42 | CartoonCat, then it should work if your comptuer supports it... i have used alot of bootable distros, they generally work great, then you will have one or two computers, that choose not to read it... | 18:54 |
| cvelasquez | I had to do some weird key combinations but it works. | 18:54 |
| elo | what's a good program for web designing to use on linux? similar to what homesite used to be like (now dreamweaver [FAIL]) | 18:55 |
| cvelasquez | fyrestr: pls if you could point me where to download vista's recovery disc.. | 18:55 |
| === greenfish is now known as soundnor | ||
| cvelasquez | damn | 18:55 |
| cvelasquez | I'm so stupid today | 18:55 |
| cvelasquez | fyrestr: not a problem | 18:55 |
| cvelasquez | fyrestr: nevermind | 18:55 |
| soundnor | when I try alsamixer it only gives me audio type but not the actual chipset info, and I only have one volume bar to change why is that? isnt ubuntu detecting my audio card properly? | 18:55 |
| cvelasquez | what I need to know now is if ubuntu 8.04 install CD can resize vista's ntfs partition safely | 18:56 |
| CartoonCat | superfirelord42, thats fine, it will just be used on this box (I realy should nuke everything on this one anyhow, my storage method broke down and ive junk all over including 2 ntfs drives) | 18:56 |
| cvelasquez | I'de be very glad if so | 18:56 |
| MaximLevitsky | soundnor: how about gnome-volume-control? | 18:56 |
| ph8 | cvelasquez: You can definitely run gparted on it, I don't know how NTFS is organised though | 18:57 |
| datalus | When will ubuntu update its package for ruby from 1.8.6 to 1.8.7? | 18:57 |
| CartoonCat | ! duh, stupid me, why use the usb/ide, ive a spare port on the promise | 18:57 |
| ubottu | CartoonCat: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:57 |
| ph8 | better to use the live cd to fix grub, then resize vista, from vista | 18:57 |
| MXIIA | How do I make a package stop appearing on the update list? | 18:57 |
| unop | cvelasquez, gparted (on the CD) does resize partitions quite well -- but that isn't good enough, you must always have a backup of your data | 18:57 |
| soundnor | MaximLevitsky: i cant use it, im not using any x right now, im in bash with no x | 18:57 |
| cvelasquez | ok | 18:58 |
| Fezzler | My nvidia driver is not working or showing up in Hardware Drivers (Hardy), should I start from scratch? | 18:58 |
| cvelasquez | thx a lot guys | 18:58 |
| molgrum | hardy-security is listed as third-party software for me, and i can't tick the checkbox.. any ideas? | 18:58 |
| MaximLevitsky | soundnor: I didn't understand you first, what you see in alsamixer | 18:58 |
| glitsj16 | elo: http://www.designvitality.com/blog/2007/10/25-open-source-web-design-programs-and-tools-you-should-already-know-about/ has a nice overview | 18:59 |
| elo | thanks a lot every1! | 18:59 |
| Dr_willis | datalus, unless theres some security issues.. it will most likely get updated in the next release. | 18:59 |
| Dr_willis | datalus, not normally befor then. | 19:00 |
| soundnor | MaximLevitsky: Card CA0106 Chipset: blank and everything else is blank except for one volume bar | 19:00 |
| datalus | ah, because according to the ruby site there are some security issues w/ ruby 1.8.6 | 19:00 |
| Ducas | I just installed ubuntu to dual-boot, is there a ubuntu tool I could use to completely defrag my NTFS partitions? | 19:00 |
| MaximLevitsky | soundnor: try just for case alsamixer -Dhw:0 | 19:01 |
| Dr_willis | datalus, watch the packports and security repositories then. Ive seen befor where ubuntu keeps an older version, but patches them to remove security issues. | 19:01 |
| datalus | okay, thanks. | 19:01 |

| cvelasquez | one thing | 19:01 |
| yoyoned | how do I make emerge skip dependencies I don't want installed. For instance, I want to install gnome without firefox or evolution | 19:02 |
| MaximLevitsky | soundnor: I suspect that alsamixer might pick the pulseaudio mixer | 19:02 |
| Dr_willis | superfirelord42, i know better then to try to deftag ntfs from linux. :) heh . but Ducas may want it. heh | 19:02 |
| unop | yoyoned, emerge? are you on gentoo ? | 19:02 |
| cvelasquez | is it possible to restore boot loading with a live cd (sth like installing grub exclusively in the MBR without another disk partition)? | 19:02 |
| superfirelord42 | Dr_willis, yeah, same here... ill let windows do what windows wants on that.... | 19:03 |
| yoyoned | unop: oops, wrong window | 19:03 |

| palomer | I have an nvidia card, but when I try to use the proprietary drivers I can only set it to 640x480, it's a super fresh install | 19:04 |
| Fezzler | MaximLevitsky> Use synaptic to uninstall? | 19:04 |
| MaximLevitsky | soundnor: probably this is kernel isuue | 19:05 |
| MaximLevitsky | soundnor: try to ask at #alsa | 19:05 |

| HappyUser | something like vi ? | 19:32 |

| superfirelord42 | HappyUser, gedit filename | 19:32 |
| HappyUser | okay | 19:32 |
| superfirelord42 | that lets you edit graphicly... | 19:32 |
| Bogh | HappyUser: sudo gedit filename | 19:32 |
| XTron | because 6.10 works fine | 19:32 |

| SegFaultAX | Jack_Sparrow: the build version for python-twisted | 19:51 |

| DeadKennedy2880 | hello again all!!! i have a logitech wireless mouse with a built-in "search" button. under gutsy i found 'btnx' to be great with setting up all my buttons to my likeing, including the "search" button. since installing hardy the search feature is recognized on plug-in. i want to get rid of the search feature though, and set the "search" button to whatever i choose with 'btnx' but cant find a way to do that. "search" started | 19:51 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | until i uninstalled 'tracker', and now it opens 'search'. i want it to do nothing by default. any suggestions?? | 19:51 |

| integrand | when installing? | 19:52 |
| integrand | I forgot if I did when I was setting the partitions | 19:52 |
| ph8 | if you want to ssh from debian to ubuntu, i think the default ubuntu settings will look for the contents of id_rsa.pub in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys | 19:52 |
| integrand | there's no way of checking it? | 19:52 |
| ph8 | although the file name depends on your SSH config - /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 19:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | integrand http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome are the basics | 19:53 |

| nickrud | rflol | 20:33 |
| unop | rsl, use sudo -i # what does $PATH contain then? | 20:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | je anything will work, right clicking the iso and write to disk works just fine | 20:33 |
| jazzwhiz | anirudh0, its not in /dev/video0 | 20:33 |
| jazzwhiz | there are no video dirs | 20:33 |
| fwaokda | anirudh0, exited rhythmbox and it still doesn't work | 20:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sam555 if windows is installed, the installer works just fine for setting up dual boot | 20:34 |
| rsl | unop: how? sudo -i by itself returns me to prompt. sudo -i $PATH the same. | 20:34 |
| je | Jack_Sparrow, 11.7 is slowest it gose | 20:34 |
| anirudh0 | fwaokda, post output of command | 20:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | je try that | 20:34 |

| sam555 | Jack_Sparrow: winxp is installed | 20:34 |
| unop | rsl, sudo -i # logs you on as root. echo $PATH then | 20:34 |
| sam555 | Jack_Sparrow: so your saying just boot to the iso and it should be self explanatory? | 20:35 |
| unop | rsl, sudo -i like sudo -s | 20:35 |
| fwaokda | anirudh0, lsof: WARNING: can't stat() usbfs file system /proc/bus/usb/.usbfs Output information may be incomplete. | 20:35 |

| twentysix | I am using Hardy Heron, I have it intsalled correctly, I have a Belkin Wireless G F5D7000 PCI card, I have Googled to try and figure out how to install drivers offline and can not find anything. I can not connect an RJ45 to the router. Would someone please help me out? | 20:35 |

| anirudh0 | fwaokda, sudo lsof /dev/snd/* | 20:35 |
| sam555 | Jack_Sparrow: thanks much! | 20:35 |
| anirudh0 | alami, look at camorama | 20:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sam555 yes, it will offer you different options on partitioning etc, but it will set it up for you, single drives work easiest, dual next best externals harder | 20:36 |
| je | Jack_Sparrow, is there a spacific writing mode i should use | 20:36 |
| alami | anirudh0 i have install it but they don't know l | 20:36 |

| anirudh0 | fwaokda, i mean firefox not showing up in the command output | 20:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cruddpup1et some cards have issue with hidden networks | 20:37 |
| capiira | ha i managed to let gnome admin apps to ask for root password instead of sudo | 20:37 |
| twentysix | Can anyone tell me if it is possible to install ndiswrapper by downloading it via Windows and installing it in Linux? | 20:38 |
| cruddpup1et | Jack_Sparrow: I mean, assuming my card supports it fully, will iwlist show even hidden networks ? | 20:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | cruddpup1et should | 20:38 |
| cruddpup1et | Jack_Sparrow: Thank you. | 20:38 |
| unop | rsl, sudo su - | 20:38 |
| capiira | gconf-editor gksu sudo mode remove [x] | 20:38 |
| anirudh0 | twentysix, you mean downloading the deb? | 20:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | unop bad choice | 20:38 |
| === Awsoonn_ is now known as Awsoonn | ||
| unop | Jack_Sparrow, I am perfectly aware | 20:39 |
| rsl | unop shows up then. | 20:39 |
| anirudh0 | capiira, nice | 20:39 |
| twentysix | anirudh0 - I was told it's on the CD-ROM but can't find it in the package manager | 20:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | unop then please dont suggest it to others | 20:39 |
| unop | rsl, check $PATH now | 20:39 |
| rsl | why would it not show up via sudo which whatever? | 20:39 |
| rsl | ugh | 20:39 |
| unop | Jack_Sparrow, please follow the conversation -- he has problems with sudo -i | 20:39 |
| icedwater | I need help getting my Sony music player to work on Hardy... I can't get access to the files inside even though it shows as connected | 20:39 |
| rsl | 15 times added. | 20:39 |
| anirudh0 | twentysix, manually downloading deb should work fine | 20:39 |
| unop | rsl, because sudo -s loads your environment not root's | 20:39 |
| rsl | unop: which of the 15 places i added that directory is the _right_ on. | 20:39 |
| anirudh0 | icedwater, it has a usb storage interface? | 20:39 |
| twentysix | anirudh0 - forgive my n00bishness, not sure what you mean by manually downloading deb | 20:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | unop that still is not the solution to the problem | 20:39 |
| icedwater | I believe so | 20:40 |
| NW2190 | Hi, I just updated the to kernel 2.6.24-19 through the update manager, and when I restarted a message popped up saying that the computer was in low graphics mode. Now I have 640x480 resolution. Does anyone know how to fix that? | 20:40 |
| rsl | unop: how do i add to root's though? | 20:40 |
| anirudh0 | twentysix, download the deb via firefox | 20:40 |
| icedwater | anirudh0: which module should be loaded? | 20:40 |
| anirudh0 | twentysix, google for "ndiswrapper deb" | 20:40 |
| icedwater | Another USB stick on the same computer works fine | 20:40 |
| rsl | so i can just call sudo sometask and relie on sudo finding any system call that sometask uses. | 20:40 |
| anirudh0 | icedwater, err..i meant is it a usb storage device? | 20:40 |
| twentysix | thank you anirudh0 | 20:40 |
| palomer | hello | 20:40 |

| palomer | how do I find the specs I need for my monitor | 20:40 |
| anirudh0 | icedwater, or a custom protocol? | 20:40 |
| palomer | to put into my xorg.conf? | 20:40 |

| icedwater | But I believe it is the standard | 20:41 |
| twentysix | anirudh0 - how do i install the .tar.gz package once i get back into Ubuntu? | 20:41 |
| unop | rsl, try what? | 20:41 |

| anirudh0 | icedwater, when you plug it in, does something show up in "computer"? | 20:41 |
| capiira | brb | 20:41 |
| icedwater | Nope, not at all. | 20:41 |
| anirudh0 | twentysix, download the deb package..not the source | 20:41 |
| unop | rsl, see if logging out and logging back in changes anything .. you need to be able to sudo -i | 20:41 |
| anirudh0 | twentysix, double click on the deb | 20:41 |

| PeterP24 | Hi, I have a problem with vmware; it won't start without the help of the sudo command; does anyone have a solution? | 21:14 |
| TheCount | Bonfirefliz: any non-meta-questions? | 21:14 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, one of the major things to look out for is the linux kernel names | 21:14 |
| anirudh0 | Bonfirefliz, do "man ssh"...look at the -L flag | 21:14 |
| bobbob1016 | I'm trying to get VNC working over Hamachi, but when I do "VNC" from the list, I get (terminal output) "vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection refused" even though I started vncserver through on the computer. Any ideas? | 21:14 |
| nalioth | Bonfirefliz: that is not necessary | 21:14 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, it is using kernels from a diffrent version, you need to use yours and make sure to use hardy instead of edgy.. im still reading | 21:15 |
| Bonfirefliz | what is not necessary | 21:15 |
| rubystallion | I can't listen to the audio stream on www.skyrock.com in firefox. I tried it with epiphany and it works there. Is anything wrong with the firefox audio plugin? | 21:15 |
| __yy | bobbob1016: are you connecting to the right display? | 21:15 |
| TheCount | superfirelord42: never mind, I'll just try that way .. maybe I'll debconf into the chroot | 21:15 |
| Bonfirefliz | um i dont think ssh -L is what i want | 21:15 |
| kapace | i just installed VNC, how do i connect to my current display, instead of a separate X display | 21:15 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, it will work i think | 21:15 |
| cruddpuppet | How Does anyone know if it's possible to evaluate mathematical expressions through a shell script ? | 21:16 |
| __yy | kapace: use x11vnc | 21:16 |
| TheCount | superfirelord42: sounds like, right? | 21:16 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, the thing is some phrases need ajusting | 21:16 |
| awell | Good Afternoon | 21:16 |
| Bonfirefliz | im connected to vpn, and I dont want google talk to go through the vpn pipe | 21:16 |
| TheCount | cruddpuppet: tryp apcalc | 21:16 |
| rubystallion | Oh, the link is http://player.skyrock.com/V4/skyrock/skyrock_live_V2.html | 21:16 |
| Flannel | cruddpuppet: How complicated of expressions? | 21:16 |
| Bonfirefliz | i want it to be routed directly to eth0 | 21:16 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, kernel ubuntu-edgy/vmlinuz-2.6.17.10-generic | 21:16 |
| superfirelord42 | will fail | 21:16 |
| anirudh0 | cruddpuppet, what kind? | 21:16 |
| kapace | __yy: ok, but what if i wanted tight server | 21:16 |
| TheCount | superfirelord42: yeah, but that's mostly obvious stuff :) | 21:16 |
| cruddpuppet | anirudh0: Things like calculating simple percentages | 21:16 |
| awell | I need help setting up a shoutcast internet radio station on my ubuntu computer | 21:16 |
| cruddpuppet | (x/y) * 100 | 21:16 |
| cruddpuppet | etc | 21:16 |
| bobbob1016 | __yy, I think I am. There is no display option, come to think of it, the command I used was vncserver :1, I wasn't thinking programming wise, as in 0, 1, I was thinking 1 was the first... Let me try that. But when I start the Remote Desktop Viewer and connect, it still doesn't work. | 21:16 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, i think it should work, with a bit of teaks like that here and there... | 21:16 |
| CharlieMFC | Hi, I'm very new to Ubuntu and need help do I just ask my question? | 21:16 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, i belive its worth a try | 21:16 |
| superfirelord42 | CharlieMFC, yup, just ask... | 21:17 |
| __yy | kapace: you can't as far as I know | 21:17 |
| kriss | Anyone know of a good tool that creates video dvd's from xvid? | 21:17 |
| Murrlin | genii: ok! *looks* | 21:17 |
| TheCount | Bonfirefliz: well, add a static route. route add <ip> dev eth0 | 21:17 |
| __yy | bobbob1016: start the viewer with vncviewer remothemachine:1 | 21:17 |
| kapace | __yy: ok | 21:17 |
| awell | Has anyone set up a shoutcast internet radio station on their ubuntu computer? | 21:17 |
| TheCount | superfirelord42: I'll just try. been doing this kind of things some times, but I thought there might be a 'nice' way with ubuntu | 21:18 |
| Dr_willis | kriss, you may want to try 'DeVeDe' there are other tools also. | 21:18 |
| Flannel | awell: Check out icecast | 21:18 |
| Murrlin | genii: I've already tried that :( | 21:18 |
| * Murrlin tries 8 now | 21:18 | |
| kriss | Dr_willis, thanks | 21:18 |
| awell | What's icecast? | 21:18 |
| Kyle__ | awell: open source shoutcast | 21:18 |
| superfirelord42 | TheCount, ok, good luck... | 21:18 |
| bobbob1016 | __yy, :1 means a new desktop or something? I just have a terminal. | 21:18 |
| TheCount | superfirelord42: thanks :) | 21:18 |
| CharlieMFC | Cool :) Right, I've installed Ubuntu within my Win XP installation as I'm very interested in changing to Linux, the install has gone fine, but I can't get my wireless adapter to work. I look into installinh Ndiswrapper, nut it says I should have a wired connection to do this. Unfortunately, I only have a wireless connection... Am I screwed? | 21:18 |
| Kyle__ | has some addictional features, like one icecast daemon can host multiple streams | 21:18 |
| DJGummiku1 | lol @ thsi nig0rz guy.. I will never understand what's going on in such fried brains... | 21:18 |
| awell | is it easy to use? | 21:19 |
| bogeyman | got a ? how come i try to load a mp3 file and amarok says it dont have the required codec or something but ive installed ubuntu restricted extras? | 21:19 |
| superfirelord42 | CharlieMFC, what is the wireless card model and brand? | 21:19 |
| TRON | hy! | 21:19 |
| DJGummiku1 | good night everyone | 21:19 |
| anirudh0 | DJGummiku1, probably wanted to be banned | 21:19 |
| bogeyman | and it plays most of my mp3 files just some it wont | 21:19 |
| CharlieMFC | it's a USB D Link DWL G122 revision B1 | 21:19 |
| zoreau | isnt "| less" after a command supposed to allow to keep running even if you close the terminal window? | 21:19 |
| __yy | bobbob1016: :1 is the displaynumber, if you start vncserver with vncserver :1 it starts a display called :1 (:0 is the default display), you need to connect to the correct display with vncviewer or it won't work | 21:19 |
| TheCount | cruddpuppet: apcalc is your friend. | 21:19 |
| Flannel | zoreau: no. It collects the output for you | 21:19 |
| Kyle__ | awell: the output plugin you want should be both icecast and shoutcast | 21:19 |
| anirudh0 | zoreau, no..try cat | 21:19 |
| Wyoming_Jim | what port do I use for telnet ... Thanks | 21:19 |
| cruddpuppet | bash: apcalc: command not found | 21:20 |
| superfirelord42 | CharlieMFC, ouch... D-Link... i never got mine to work... but it was a diffrent model, and ill admit, i was lazy and just gave up... | 21:20 |
| Kyle__ | cruddpuppet: calc? | 21:20 |
| CharlieMFC | lol | 21:20 |
| acke_n | hey | 21:20 |
| TheCount | cruddpuppet: apt-get install apcalc ; calc 17+4 | 21:20 |
| awell | Does that takes the place of the shoutcast server? | 21:20 |
| Flannel | awell: Yes | 21:20 |
| acke_n | how do i set script permissions | 21:20 |
| TheCount | awell: yes. | 21:20 |
| anirudh0 | acke_n, chmod | 21:20 |
| awell | OK | 21:20 |
| acke_n | chmod a+x file? | 21:20 |
| acke_n | hehe | 21:20 |
| rtu3478 | CharlieMFC: you don't need ndiswrapper for that card. it has the ralink rt2570 chipset, which is supported by the rt2570usb driver. | 21:20 |
| anirudh0 | acke_n, y | 21:20 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, i seem to recall there was an issue with that driver... he may need to compile it from source... but lets see if it works... | 21:21 |
| cruddpuppet | thanks kyle__ + TheCount | 21:21 |
| CharlieMFC | thanks rtu3478, can I go into windows and download the drivers for it, then reboot into Ubuntu and install? | 21:21 |
| rtu3478 | superfirelord42: rt2570usb is in mainline kernel since 2.6.24 | 21:21 |
| imaginativeone | I would like to have an intranet that is separate from the Internet. how do I do that? | 21:21 |
| imaginativeone | do I need two routers? | 21:22 |
| acke_n | gaaah how so i do a unrar smb://fileandpath . ? | 21:22 |
| __yy | imaginativeone: no, generally you need one router | 21:22 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, since what ubuntu release, as of one below hardy... it wasnt working | 21:22 |
| rtu3478 | CharlieMFC: you don't need to download the driver. kernel 2.6.24 should have it already | 21:22 |
| rtu3478 | superfirelord42: really? | 21:22 |
| Bonfirefliz | TheCount: is there a way I can do it based on the port rather than the IP? | 21:22 |
| Beavis | wow | 21:23 |
| PeterP24 | how do you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to nothing? | 21:23 |
| imaginativeone | yy: would you know how to set up the network? | 21:23 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, yup, the forums said recompile with rtXX where XX is a number i dont remember | 21:23 |
| Dr_willis | acke_n, you could copy the file locally and do it.. or mount the share to a local directory. smb:// sort of 'browses' the shares , not mounts them | 21:23 |
| TheCount | PeterP24: unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH | 21:23 |
| nbake | hello | 21:23 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, how do you modprobe it for him? | 21:23 |
| Beavis | this is gonna be cool! | 21:23 |
| __yy | imaginativeone: if you have a router you should have an intranet, do your computers have 192.168.x.x ip addresses? | 21:23 |
| zoreau | CharlieMFC: just to let you know, your wireless adapter isnt 64-it compatible...i learned that the hard way because not one damn thing documents it | 21:23 |
| nbake | how do i tell if x server is running? | 21:23 |
| imaginativeone | yy: yes | 21:23 |
| Bonfirefliz | TheCount: is there a way I can set up the route based on the port rather than the IP? | 21:23 |
| m3sser | hi, what is the most recommended kernel to compile my Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy ? | 21:24 |
| __yy | imaginativeone: congrats, you have an intranet | 21:24 |
| CharlieMFC | thanks guys, going to have a fiddle about, hopefully be back using Ubuntu instead of Windows :) | 21:24 |
| rtu3478 | superfirelord42: no need to modprobe. the module should be loaded when plugging in the card. | 21:24 |
| imaginativeone | I'm trying to make my intranet less hackable | 21:24 |
| Beavis | wtf are you talking about | 21:24 |
| PeterP24 | TheCount: thank you | 21:24 |
| TheCount | Bonfirefliz: yes, but that's advanced voodoo, and beyond what I'm willing to elaborate on right now :) | 21:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Beavis Please dont use rude shorthand.. | 21:24 |
| nbake | i've downloaded the latest nvidia drivers package, but i can't seem to load it into the package manager - any help? | 21:24 |
| Bonfirefliz | o | 21:24 |
| TheCount | Bonfirefliz: there's acceptable documentation on the net, though | 21:24 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, strange, its not working for him... | 21:24 |
| __yy | imaginativeone: in that case, swtich your router for an old computer running a properly configured openbsd | 21:24 |
| acke_n | Dr_willis: thanks, i did a "connect to server" thing to the samba share. but thats not like mounting it? how would i mount it? smbmount -t smbfs smbshare mymediashare. didnt do it.. | 21:24 |
| bobbob1016 | __yy, It says :0 doesn't exist. How can I get my current desktop running over VNC? vncserver :0 says already running on :0 | 21:24 |
| === azulcita is now known as azhe | ||
| imaginativeone | so if I had an internal net...and then some sort of "internet server" - that's what I'm after | 21:25 |
| Beavis | hey | 21:25 |
| __yy | bobbob1016: you need to use x11vnc instead of vncserver to do that | 21:25 |
| rtu3478 | superfirelord42: i don't have the card anymore. i just have the c1 revision, which has rt73 chipset. that one works. | 21:25 |
| Bonfirefliz | TheCount: so for the IP based route, I should just do: route add IPADDRESS dev eth0 ? | 21:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Beavis Are you talking to someone in particular | 21:25 |
| Beavis | i wanna meet chicks | 21:25 |
| Dr_willis | acke_n, with the proper smbmount command sort of like what you did. I would gyess ya did the command wrongly. I tend to use the fusesmb tool to 'mount' the whole network. | 21:25 |
| genii | Beavis: Since this is the Ubuntu support channel, the discussion is about that. | 21:25 |
| nbake | i've downloaded the latest nvidia drivers package, but i can't seem to load it into the package manager - any help? | 21:25 |
| TheCount | Bonfirefliz: correct. you may be able to do this automatically, have a look at man interfaces (post-up) | 21:25 |
| __yy | bobbob1016: vncserver is for creating new displays, x11vnc is for sharing existing displays | 21:25 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, thats what it was rt73... they had me recompile it | 21:25 |
| rtu3478 | superfirelord42: but his card has rt2570 | 21:26 |
| acke_n | Dr_willis: thanks, cool ill try that | 21:26 |
| superfirelord42 | rtu3478, is it just me, or did he leave? | 21:26 |
| genii | Jack_Sparrow: Heh you booted him already however | 21:26 |
| rtu3478 | superfirelord42: he left | 21:26 |
| awell | I'm some what new to ubuntu. I found icecast server and icecast2 listed is that what I want to mark for installation? | 21:26 |
| bobbob1016 | __yy, Just curious, does x11vnc require a reboot? I'm no where near the computer I want to VNC into now, about 800 miles away. | 21:26 |
| Bonfirefliz | TheCount: thanks | 21:26 |
| __yy | bobbob1016: no, not at all | 21:26 |
| kapace | is x11vnc started automatically once installed? | 21:27 |
| duelboot | hello all | 21:27 |
| maemo | hi | 21:27 |
| __yy | kapace: no | 21:27 |
| Kyle__ | bobbob1016: what what? | 21:27 |
| imaginativeone | do I want some sort of firewall solution instead? | 21:27 |
| kapace | __yy: how can i make it do that? | 21:27 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, what what, what? | 21:27 |
| Kyle__ | bobbob1016: x11vnc is a program that connects to the running X server | 21:27 |
| __yy | kapace: read man x11vnc | 21:27 |
| kapace | ok | 21:27 |
| robert__ | oin ubuntu-pl | 21:28 |
| Kyle__ | bobbob1016: you might have to be logged in locally for it to work, the other vnc servers create virtual X servers just for VNC | 21:28 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, Yes, it is... and? I am running Hamachi, I am considered local. | 21:28 |
| === robert__ is now known as Guest82405 | ||
| acke_n | Dr_willis: the fusesmb wasnt found in my aptitude.. :( found fuse-utils, is that the right package? | 21:28 |
| Kyle__ | i guess you could run x11vnc as root | 21:28 |
| Kyle__ | !hamachi | 21:28 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hamachi | 21:28 |
| Kyle__ | me neither ;) | 21:29 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, I'm ssh-ed to it now. | 21:29 |
| Kyle__ | bobbob1016: x11vnc is great if you want to mess with a program you left running | 21:29 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, It's a vpn program, free one. No need to play wuth static IP's or forwarding. | 21:29 |
| awell | Which do I want to install icecast2 or icecast-server? | 21:29 |
| porkchop | hey all. i installed 8.04 from the live cd "to run like a program in windows" or what ever they called it. i was wondering how i remove that? | 21:30 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, Actually, I need to mess with VNC on the computer I am connected to, to VNC into another machine I have there.... yeah. | 21:30 |
| Kyle__ | uh | 21:30 |
| bobbob1016 | porkchop, Add-remove programs, same as a normal program. | 21:30 |
| Kyle__ | why would you chain vnc sessions? | 21:30 |
| AlexJP | sorry, where can download mousepad 0.2.2? | 21:30 |
| Dr_willis | acke_n, it may be fusesmb, or smbfuse.. those crazy fuse guys like to do stuff like that. :) | 21:31 |
| Dr_willis | !info smbfuse | 21:31 |
| ubottu | Package smbfuse does not exist in hardy | 21:31 |
| Dr_willis | !info fusesmb | 21:31 |
| ubottu | fusesmb (source: fusesmb): filesystem client based on the SMB file transfer protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.7-1 (hardy), package size 30 kB, installed size 140 kB | 21:31 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, Because I can't connect to the machine I need to. My VPN goes to my desktop, not my server. Hamachi gives you a 5.x.x.x ip, so I'm connecting to the other machine running hamachi, then using it to get to the 192.x.x.x | 21:31 |
| LordMetro | Okay, I have gotten the necessary WinXP drivers for my Zonet USB WLAN adapter, used ndiswrapper and so on... | 21:31 |
| obidiah | hello all. I'm trying to install a mail server from source, using qmail/vpopmail/courier-authlib/courier-imap/squirrelmail. I've followed the same procedure I have used for years on RH (CentOS) boxen, making adjustments as needed. I was able to install mysql, php, apache2, etc without a problem. In this case, everything compiles and installls file. unfortunately, courier-authlib does not seem to work. I've already disabled appa | 21:31 |
| obidiah | rmor but it still doesn't authenticate users properly. Has anyone else encountered a similar problem with courier-authlib and ubuntu? | 21:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nathan__ A minute of your time please | 21:32 |
| PeterFA | When installing Tomcat5.5, the dependencies produce lots of the same kind of error during their configurations:/var/lib/scrollkeeper/oc/scrollkeeper_extended_cl.xml:3588: parser error : Premature end of data in tag ScrollKeeperContentsList line 2 | 21:32 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, never got around to installing Hamachi on the server | 21:32 |
| zoreau | anyone know how i can use the backtrack livecd just by mounting it (ive got it mounted but the cd contents are confusing considering its meant to be booted from) | 21:32 |
| LordMetro | everything checks out alright, and I modprobed ndiswrapper and added it to /etc/modules | 21:32 |
| hou5ton | This laptop running Hardy refuses to have anything to do with wireless ... but a previous version of ubuntu worked wireless out of the box. What's up with that? | 21:32 |
| kapace | __yy: i can't find the option to make it start on boot up | 21:32 |
| LordMetro | however lsmod says nothing is using the module, how do I make rt2500usb use my ndiswrapper? | 21:32 |
| Kyle__ | bobbob1016: ah, well can you ssh to the one computer and then port forward it? | 21:32 |
| acke_n | Dr_willis: haha thanks | 21:32 |
| porkchop | hou5ton, im having the same problem. what laptop do you have? | 21:32 |
| === crd1b is now known as crdlb | ||
| LordMetro | hou5ton, Yeah, I am getting quite aggrevated myself about this | 21:33 |
| __yy | kapace: you could try putting it in /etc/rc.local | 21:33 |

| obidiah | lordmetro: I just got ndiswrapper going on my laptop, I might be able to help out | 21:33 |
| rsl | one more try: i'm trying to solve this problem. i need to be able to run a program using sudo which is outside of the default PATH. i do not need to spawn another shell using sudo su -, or login as root. i just need to be able to run the program using the sudo command and have it correctly find the program. what one file will be responsible for the PATH that sudo uses as it clearly is not using my own path. http://pastie.org/237177 | 21:33 |
| porkchop | hou5ton, mine is too. | 21:33 |
| rsl | thanks in advance. | 21:33 |

| LordMetro | obidiah, I could copy those | 21:34 |

| Shubbar | I was trying to get my Nikon recognized by ubuntu | 21:34 |
| coz_ | PeterFA, sorry wrong person") | 21:35 |
| rsl | superfirelord42: one sec. let me rephrase my question so it eliminates that reply. | 21:35 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, I'm not sure what you mean, well I know what you mean, but I don't know if it'll work. Hamachi isn't a server, or DHCP or anything, it is kind of like a "back to my mac" thing, as in I can browse my remote machines, and SSH them. I can vnc them too, but it isn't working too well. | 21:35 |
| LordMetro | obidiah, shall I use them instead? | 21:35 |
| PeterP24 | Hi, I have a problem with vmware; it won't start without the help of the sudo command; does anyone have a solution? | 21:35 |
| superfirelord42 | rsl, ok... | 21:35 |
| acke_n | Dr_willis: will ubuntu wiki said fusesmb but my ubuntu 6.06 (on old ppc system) doesnt want to recognize it... bummer. | 21:35 |
| zoreau | Jack_Sparrow: its us vs them, one day they will submit, or fall :) | 21:35 |
| Shubbar | searched online, and found recommendation to update firmware, but I have the latest firmware and it still not recongnized | 21:35 |
| coz_ | soulchild, what do you mean a "linux handy" ? | 21:35 |
| bobbob1016 | Kyle__, I got it to work though, I'm on the remote machine now. Thanks. | 21:35 |
| Dr_willis | acke_n, thats the issue then... :) time to upgrade. | 21:35 |
| bobbob1016 | And thanks to __yy too. | 21:36 |
| obidiah | lordmetro: when you install the driver with ndiswrapper -i driver.inf, does it reject you right there? | 21:36 |
| Shubbar | anyone has a Nikon? | 21:36 |
| LordMetro | obidiah, no everything works fine | 21:36 |
| rsl | superfirelord42: one more try: i'm trying to solve this problem. i need to be able to run a program using sudo which is outside of the default PATH. i do not need to spawn another shell using sudo su -, or login as root, or specify the full path [since the ruby file might want to call other programs located in this same non-default directory]. i just need to be able to run the program using the sudo command and have it correctly find the prog | 21:36 |
| obidiah | when you enter the command ndiswrapper -l does it show the device present with a hex id and "device" present" | 21:36 |
| zoreau | _yy i was tryin to run it in wine | 21:36 |
| clarezoe | Hi, I have to run amarok under root, otherwise it will say dbus connection error, how can I change this? | 21:36 |
| superfirelord42 | rs1, hmmm, you can try ./command | 21:37 |
| rsl | superfirelord42: again... | 21:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shubbar I have a D70 but I just pull the chip and use a reader | 21:37 |
| __yy | zoreau: ahh, I was hoping they'd finally ported it :( | 21:37 |
| acke_n | Dr_willis: yeah, wouldve if there wasnt an issue with the upgrade tool not allowing me to do the upgrade.. hurrays... :O hehe ill do a local unrar on the file.. thanks | 21:37 |
| rsl | tht's not going to solve system calls from the main command not finding the path. | 21:38 |
| rsl | i need to add to path. | 21:38 |
| rsl | that's all | 21:38 |
| obidiah | lordmetro: you are usually better off using the win98 driver instead of the winxp driver for a wireless card | 21:38 |
| rsl | i really need it. | 21:38 |
| LordMetro | http://rafb.net/p/n7zKV458.html | 21:38 |
| zoreau | anyone know of a good channel for help with wine? | 21:38 |
| superfirelord42 | rsl, i think i have it... hold on | 21:38 |
| LordMetro | It is not a wireless card it is an usb-adapter | 21:38 |
| Shubbar | Jack_Sparrow, so its not recongnized by ubuntu also? | 21:38 |
| rsl | that's all. not loging in as root. not spawning a subshell. just adding to path. | 21:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shubbar I never tried | 21:38 |
| zoreau | also wth is Cedega? is it a commercial version of Wine that possibly works better, slash supports more games? | 21:39 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 what do i do about my ssh keys problem :/ i have sshd_config of two machines (1 which allows key login, and 1 of my ubuntu machine which doesnt care and asks me for pass prompt) would you like to compare | 21:39 |
| superfirelord42 | rsl, so to edit the .bashrc file so that you have a diffrent path when you start up? | 21:39 |
| fwaokda | I have a folder in my trash bin that I can't get rid of... how can i get rid of it? :) | 21:39 |
| obidiah | lordmetro: it should work anyway | 21:39 |
| rsl | superfirelord42: i've tried adding just plain PATH in /root/.profile, /root/.bash_profile, /root/.bashrc, /etc/profile, /etc/environments, my own path... | 21:39 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, this is going to sound odd in a linux forum, do you have a widows machine nearby? | 21:39 |
| rsl | via export PATH. | 21:40 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 yes i do | 21:40 |
| rsl | but none work. | 21:40 |
| obidiah | lordmetro: based on the link you sent, you should be in business | 21:40 |
| superfirelord42 | rsl, and you do not want to move it to a system path area? | 21:40 |
| AlexJP | superfirelord42, do you know where i can download kate? cant find it anywhere! | 21:40 |

| rsl | superfirelord42: this is a server not a local computer. | 22:13 |

| superfirelord42 | rsl, a server? you are sshd in? do you have root login enabled? | 22:14 |
| LhiQuer | Jack_Sparrow, it turns out that all of the nvidia drivers, ubuntu or official, have severe issues detecting the monitor, so we need to install the nvidia GUI configuration tool, which detects the right monitor, but also allows manual configuration of the driver and xconf directly | 22:14 |

| orphean | twentysix: that doesn't necessarily mean its not there. network-manager brings it up and down on its own | 22:20 |
| LhiQuer | palomer, one sec | 22:20 |
| takhs_o_asxhmos | help? | 22:20 |
| twentysix | orphean - network-manager is the utility that also lists the point to point and wired network connections, correct? | 22:20 |
| LhiQuer | palomer, did you do sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings? | 22:20 |
| superfirelord42 | rsl, sorry, i assumed you where local, and where editing through visudo.. | 22:20 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: popup reads "You do not 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 | 22:21 |
| twentysix | orphean - if so, the card is not showing up in there at all either | 22:21 |
| KleRoi | mmm hello I just managed to reinstall a copy of windows xp on a partition, but my problem is that grub loads windows on default and I have to press ESC to access the menu in wich i can choose to load ubuntu. How can I make it the other way round so that ubuntu loads on default? | 22:21 |
| orphean | twentysix: which is why I suggest trying WICD | 22:21 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, what card do you have again? | 22:21 |
| rsl | superfirelord42: like you assumed that line you told me would work, would actually work? | 22:21 |
| twentysix | orphean - how do i go about doing that? | 22:21 |
| palomer | LhiQuer, | 22:21 |

| monk12 | perplexing | 22:41 |
| LhiQuer | just try ctrl+alt+backspace | 22:41 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42, chmod 770 /home/bizinichi screws it up | 22:42 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42, it asks me for a password | 22:42 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: what am I trying to alter in nvidia settings? | 22:42 |
| trey_ | hello | 22:42 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, interesting... what about creating a shared directory for them? | 22:42 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, thats very strange, i have never seen that requirement before... | 22:42 |
| Decepticon | you mean a specific dir inside /home/bizinchi/shared ? | 22:42 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, you are trying to get your display p-e-r-f-e-c-t and stable | 22:43 |
| CharlieMFC | back again superfirelord. I think I'm going to give up, I can't even seem to make the driver now, when I go into /module/ and type Make, I get another load of errors :( | 22:43 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, no, that would not work... i mean like /home/shared ? | 22:43 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: sorry didn't catch that, just did ctrl-alt-backspace | 22:43 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, you are trying to get your display p-e-r-f-e-c-t and stable | 22:43 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 im afraid the shared dir has to be inside my /home/bizinichi/some_place/here | 22:43 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: ok same error, im going to try restarting | 22:43 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, try reinstalling nvidia settings | 22:44 |
| nickrud | monk12 not really, root doesn't have authority to use the X display. A hammer is xhost +localhost , but it's a security risk. You can do some stuff with the Xauthority authorization, I'm hazy on details but google Xauthority will probably pull up some howtos | 22:44 |
| LhiQuer | through synaptic | 22:44 |
| trey_ | bye | 22:44 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, thats an interesting situation... i wonder if there is an overide for that behaviour | 22:44 |
| AlexJP | anyone know about python | 22:44 |
| adamcube | Sorry nickrud, I still can't find .mplayer. Could you try to clarify for me? | 22:44 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: what should i search for? | 22:44 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, i do, what do you need? | 22:44 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: it's already installed, so remove it and add it again? | 22:45 |
| SebNaitsabes | AlexJP: wel a tiny bit | 22:45 |
| nickrud | adamcube if you do cd && ls -ld .mplayer , you should see it. | 22:45 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 i sure hope so. if i understand correctly if /home/bizinichi/ is chmod 700, then even if /home/bizinichi/shareddir is 777, the other users cannot write to /home/bizinichi/shared ? is this correct | 22:45 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: nvm got it | 22:45 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, it works? | 22:45 |
| pheeror | Decepticon: sure | 22:45 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, correct, but what if you set it to 660? | 22:45 |
| monk12 | nickrud: thanks ill take a look | 22:45 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, would it still error out? | 22:46 |
| nickrud | adamcube or, in the file manager, hit view->hidden files on the menu bar, you'll see it in your home directory (assuming mplayer has been run at least once) | 22:46 |
| adamcube | nickrud, run that through the terminal? | 22:46 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: no, same error, i just meant that i reinstalled nvidia-settings. should i try restarting? | 22:46 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 set chmod 660 to /home/bizinichi? i will try one sec, | 22:46 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, the only diffrence is 6 is read and write only | 22:46 |
| nickrud | adamcube yes, or use the second method I gave | 22:46 |
| bj_ | hey all, I was trying to get my s-video to work this morning for the first time and am running in to problems, no plug and play, its a ati video card, is there anything i need to do? | 22:46 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, what did you need to know about python? | 22:46 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, ctrl+alt+backspace should have the same effect | 22:47 |
| adamcube | nickrud: could you tell me the path from FileSystem, so I can follow it in the GUI rather than the terminal? | 22:47 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 660 does not let me passwordless logins either, 640 does | 22:47 |
| nickrud | adamcube /home/<your username>/.mplayer | 22:47 |
| Decepticon | correction.. | 22:47 |
| Lusule | Rebooting didn't help :( Still looking for help with the fact that I have no sound :( | 22:47 |
| adamcube | nickrud: Haha, it's not there. Now I'm confused.. | 22:47 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, its the write part it doesnt like then... it doesnt like the ability to write in the directory | 22:47 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: same error :( | 22:48 |
| Decepticon | 660 doesnt, 640 doesnt, 740 does | 22:48 |
| nickrud | adamcube if you don't turn on viewing hidden files, you won't see it. And, mplayer has to have been run at least once to create the configuration | 22:48 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, I bet 650 works to... | 22:48 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, we have one more solution to try | 22:48 |
| nbake | ok | 22:48 |
| Decepticon | 650 does not | 22:48 |
| AlexJP | superfirelord42, im just doing a python tutorial, im onto the exercise at the bottom of this page: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Non-Programmer%27s_Tutorial_for_Python/Count_to_10 | 22:48 |
| LhiQuer | right, uninstall nvidia-glx-legacy | 22:49 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, ok, here is waht I am thinking, do either 740 or 640.... then in an internal directory, do 660.. see if its writable... | 22:49 |
| AlexJP | and i cant work out how to get the code to kep running | 22:49 |
| adamcube | nickrud: How do I turn on hidden files. Sorry - I'm used to Windows... | 22:49 |
| pheeror | To access (=do anything in) directory you have to have +x in all parent dirs | 22:49 |
| usrnrp | damn lag... i cant get this to work | 22:49 |
| je | Can some one help me 1 on 1 please | 22:49 |
| usrnrp | anyone else have centurytel? | 22:49 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: uninstalled | 22:49 |
| usrnrp | how do you get irc to work with them? | 22:49 |
| pheeror | adamcube: ls -a ;-) | 22:49 |
| nickrud | adamcube on the file manager menu bar, view->hidden files | 22:49 |
| AlexJP | ive got it to ask for user and pass, then just sit until lock command, then ask for user and pass again, but after that it quits, i need it to loop or something? | 22:49 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, one sec please | 22:49 |
| Decepticon | superfirelord42 640 doesnt work for some reason either ahaha | 22:49 |
| nbake | ok | 22:50 |
| pheeror | adamcube: or ;-) | 22:50 |
| bj_ | anyone know about setting up s-video output with ati video card? | 22:50 |
| AlexJP | like a goto 10 kind of thing | 22:50 |
| Decepticon | 740 does though | 22:50 |
| Decepticon | i havent tried internal dirs yet | 22:50 |
| adamcube | nickrud: I feel stupid now. ^^;; Thanks, though. | 22:50 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, ok, do 740... and inside, do a 660, see if it works | 22:50 |
| funkyHat | je: you need to disable compiz | 22:50 |
| superfirelord42 | Decepticon, so like /home/user/shared where shared is 660 | 22:50 |
| Decepticon | as i dont have another user on this system to test with | 22:50 |
| nickrud | adamcube don't sweat it, the details you learn will add up fast ;) | 22:50 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, so you are on password.py? | 22:50 |
| usrnrp | perhaps its going to work this time :) | 22:50 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, http://onlinedarkzone.com/nvidia.txt | 22:50 |
| je | funkameleon, how | 22:50 |
| AlexJP | superfirelord42, under neath that it says exercises in bold, im on the exercise | 22:51 |
| funkyHat | je: after logging in and getting a white screen, switch to a console using ctrl+alt+1 and log in, then run pkill compiz | 22:51 |
| adamcube | nickrud: Whilst I'm at it, what's the easiest way to edit a protected file (one that wants my password first), without having to go through the terminal? | 22:51 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, please pastebin your code... what is it doing wrong again? its quiting after a lock command? | 22:51 |
| funkyHat | je: then switch back to tty7, click applications, go to accessories, terminal, and run metacity | 22:52 |
| AlexJP | hang on ill pastebin it i cant explain properly | 22:52 |
| nickrud | adamcube I _always_ use the terminal to edit protected files, it makes me aware that I'm messing with system stuff. Keeps my stuff and system stuff visually separate | 22:52 |
| AlexJP | http://pastebin.com/m157d65d | 22:52 |
| adamcube | Yeah, I suppose maybe it's better that way. | 22:53 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: first command, error at bottom: "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 resource temporarily unavailable)" and "Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?" | 22:53 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, yup, you need a biiiig while loop | 22:53 |
| AlexJP | while loop? | 22:53 |
| nickrud | adamcube take a look at gscripts.sourceforge.net , I think there's a script there you can add to nautilus that will give you a 'open with gksu' option | 22:53 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, is add/remove applications open? | 22:53 |
| adamcube | nickrud: Ah, all that just to point vo_driver at "x11".... :p | 22:53 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, yup... | 22:53 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, hold on... | 22:53 |
| funkyHat | je: once you've done that you should have a working desktop with window borders, close the terminal window and the borders will blink | 22:53 |
| AlexJP | ok | 22:53 |
| funkyHat | je: next click on system, go to preferences > appearance | 22:54 |
| AlexJP | oh i think i get it | 22:54 |
| pheeror | adamcube: at least, you can add new association for text file - "root gedit" and associate command gksu gedit | 22:54 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: package manager was, closed, proceeding... | 22:54 |
| je | funkyHat, can you pm this to me | 22:54 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, okay, keep me up to date | 22:54 |
| funkyHat | je: then on the visual effects tab, click on 'normal', the screen will go white again for 30 seconds, and then appear again | 22:54 |
| AlexJP | if at the top i put somethin = "blah", then while something != "this" it will keep looping | 22:54 |
| pheeror | adamcube: or right click the file open with->open with other application ->use a custom command->gksu gedit | 22:54 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, hold on... | 22:54 |
| AlexJP | yep | 22:55 |
| pheeror | adamcube: but it would be neat if there was this option automatically added for text files you don't have permission too and can sudo | 22:55 |
| LhiQuer | pheeror, you could always make a valuable contribution to the ubuntu project if you had the time | 22:55 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, i updated the pastebin, try that... | 22:55 |
| AlexJP | ty | 22:56 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, basicly, i put your vars in the front... makes code more readable | 22:56 |
| pheeror | LhiQuer: i'm no obligated a little, otherwise i'd be digged in code already ;-) | 22:56 |
| pheeror | s/no/now/ | 22:56 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: ok, on reconfigure: asks "rather than communicating directly with the video hard ware, the x server may be configured to perform some operations via the framebuffer driver...snip...use kernel framebuffer device interface? yes/no" | 22:56 |
| dbbolton | what is the architecture of an AMD Athlon XP 3200+ ? | 22:56 |
| adamcube | x86? | 22:57 |
| Z0rg | Hey | 22:57 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, i'd go with the default selected option | 22:57 |
| adamcube | Also, pheeror, thanks for the ideas. | 22:57 |
| dbbolton | 486 or 686? | 22:57 |
| pheeror | 686 at least, maybe it's x86-64 | 22:58 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, I also made a loop that will never exit | 22:58 |
| pheeror | you can also check /proc/cpuinfo for additional info | 22:58 |
| superfirelord42 | (bad practice, but works in this) | 22:58 |
| AlexJP | superfirelord42, hmm ok i see | 22:58 |
| suneet | somebody can help me with the installation of NS2 on ubuntu 8.04 LTS | 22:58 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, to make it even better, you can change the lock to a do while loop | 22:58 |
| AlexJP | so instead of lock as a var | 22:59 |
| AlexJP | ? | 22:59 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, i dont remember the syntax for python, but basicly, do, lock = raw_input() | 22:59 |
| AlexJP | wouldnt that mean lock was anything? | 22:59 |
| suneet | somebody can help me with the installation of NS2 on ubuntu 8.04 LTS | 22:59 |
| superfirelord42 | if lock == exit: exit = true, break | 22:59 |

| nbake | LhiQuer: I don't see the ability to select the nvidia driver from the x server driver list | 23:00 |
| AlexJP | hmm yeah cool | 23:00 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: doesn't appear to be any lists | 23:00 |
| Flannel | !repeat | suneet | 23:00 |
| superfirelord42 | AlexJP, then while != "lock" as your end qualifing statement | 23:00 |
| ubottu | suneet: 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 | 23:00 |

| firefox | so | 23:07 |
| firefox | i installed firefox but no audio on html pages | 23:08 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: is this attempting to get Nvidia's drivers working or a precursor to installing ubuntu's nvidia driver? | 23:08 |
| firefox | i was working around it all day... nothing to do | 23:08 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, this is getting the proven-to-work-best drivers | 23:08 |
| firefox | no audio coming up with an html page with intro | 23:09 |
| firefox | some idea ? | 23:09 |
| raistlinmaje7 | this may not be so much of a ubuntu question, but here goes: is it possible to get a pseudo dual monitor set up by creating a separate monitor in xorg that's not connected to a local device, and then use a different computer (a laptop in this case) to intercept the other monitor in your xorg configuration? | 23:09 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, sudo nvidia-xconfig | 23:09 |
| LhiQuer | brb | 23:09 |
| AlexJP | Pici yeah it would but theres noone alive in #python | 23:10 |
| AlexJP | nevermind ill send him a pm | 23:10 |
| raistlinmaje7 | i hope that question wasn't completely incomprehensible | 23:10 |

| Lusule | SebNaitsabes - my onboard sound had decided to switch headphone jack sockets since my last install... | 23:12 |
| SebNaitsabes | Lusule: oh right nice one | 23:12 |
| SebNaitsabes | firefox: have you got audio for other stuff? | 23:12 |
| LhiQuer | Lusule, are you sure? | 23:13 |
| firefox | yes i have | 23:13 |
| SebNaitsabes | firefox: try Youtube or some other flash video to see if you have sound there. probably not | 23:13 |
| firefox | utube is working fine | 23:13 |
| npope_ | test message | 23:13 |
| SebNaitsabes | firefox: oh I guess it's not a pulseaudio issue then | 23:13 |
| firefox | seems a problem with html or so | 23:13 |
| LhiQuer | WE HAVE RECEIVED YOUR TEST MESSAGE | 23:13 |
| firefox | it's a common problem.. not just mine.. even some friends have it | 23:14 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: now im getting the same error i previous got, "Your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly" and im back to 800x600 | 23:14 |
| SebNaitsabes | firefox: ok well worth a try doing this | 23:14 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, now try the nvidia-settings | 23:14 |
| SebNaitsabes | firefox: and then trying that flash intro again it may do something or it may not | 23:14 |
| SebNaitsabes | firefox: killall pulseaudio in the terminal | 23:15 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: same error | 23:15 |
| LhiQuer | hmmm | 23:15 |
| LhiQuer | this seems like a very strange issue | 23:15 |
| Smilder | I don't know why. I've tried reinstall ALSA libs but.. nothing.. | 23:15 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: is there a way to bypass this and just install the Ubuntu nvidia drivers? | 23:15 |
| pheeror | i guess that what's not working for firefox isn't flash | 23:15 |
| SebNaitsabes | Smilder: sound problems? | 23:15 |
| === arooni________a is now known as arooni | ||
| LhiQuer | nbake, this sounds like a bad install to me | 23:15 |
| pheeror | but some ie-only lame audio in html | 23:15 |
| SebNaitsabes | pheeror yeah that could be it | 23:16 |
| arooni | ubuntu hardy has been crashing once or twice a day (usually seems to be triggered by a lot of RAM /cpu being used).... how can i find out whats causing this, and eliminate it? | 23:16 |
| pheeror | i wonder why (s)he cares | 23:16 |
| firefox | what will happen if it doesnt work ? | 23:16 |
| SebNaitsabes | arooni: oh right yeah sounds a bit like something I had/have | 23:16 |
| nbake | LhiQuer: oh? I validated the integrity of the CD before i installed it. do i need to download it again and reinstall? | 23:16 |
| SebNaitsabes | arooni: do you use FIrefox? | 23:16 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, no | 23:17 |
| pheeror | i suspect nautilus more than firefox | 23:17 |
| arooni | sebastien29, yes sure | 23:17 |
| arooni | sir | 23:17 |
| pheeror | for thouse crucial memory leaks | 23:17 |
| LhiQuer | i am using the power of google atm | 23:17 |
| SebNaitsabes | pheeror: well my Firefox likes to crash, and people in IRC before were saying how Firefox 3 on Ubuntu has slowness isuess and lock up issues basicalley | 23:17 |
| AlexJP | anyone know a good usenet client which i can use with my usenext account | 23:17 |
| LhiQuer | nbake, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 23:17 |
| firefox | my firefox is fine | 23:18 |
| firefox | what is killall pulseaudio | 23:18 |
| SebNaitsabes | it will stop pulseuadio from being used | 23:18 |
| SebNaitsabes | it may make your intro sound work | 23:18 |
| SebNaitsabes | ,but probably not on this one | 23:18 |
| Sansan | arooni: open a terminal. write: top and see what is running in your system and how much cpu or ram is consuming | 23:18 |
| SebNaitsabes | probably some crappy IE only sound code | 23:19 |
| SebNaitsabes | like pheeror said | 23:19 |

| LhiQuer | Lusule, then oo.org all the way | 23:39 |
| Bonfirefliz | is there a way that you can pragmatically retrieve the current gateway? | 23:39 |
| pheeror | Zanie: also some wifi cards whose manufacturers don't support linux directly can be persuade to work by some explicit work, but besides these exceptions it doesn't pay off trying to get something work yourself | 23:39 |
| Zanie | my Laptop runs some sucky ATI Mobility 128 graphics, cant even find a de ent Ms driver for it :P | 23:39 |
| Bonfirefliz | like referring to 127.0.0.1 as localhost | 23:39 |
