| Bert_2 | ikonia: check this, sda3 is the original, sdb6 is the copy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/31057/ | 00:00 |

| Bert_2 | ikonia: it's really odd | 00:01 |
| koshari | Bert_2 wtf 8 parttiions? | 00:01 |
| glitsj16 | Blaqlight: indeed, the impact of using spaces in filenames even convinces terminal apps in linux to try to live with them .. | 00:01 |
| ikonia | koshari: can you calm it down please - we know what "wtf" means and we dont need to see it | 00:01 |
| dustrial | mlLK: as far as they need direct X they will not run in VM !! | 00:01 |
| koshari | mlLK vm is not a good solution for gaming | 00:01 |
| nvrpunk | how do I upgrade all packages? | 00:02 |
| nvrpunk | not dist-upgrade | 00:02 |
| nvrpunk | like upgrade all old versions to new ones etv | 00:02 |
| mlLK | koshari, dustrial ya wine seems to cover it pretty well | 00:02 |
| Flannel | nvrpunk: You want to be up to date with the repo, right? | 00:02 |
| rconan | hey guys, I'm having some wierd boot problems | 00:02 |
| mlLK | koshari, dustrial haven't really ventured there yet tho | 00:02 |
| elexodus__ | ikonia: Ok, I swapped back to the default file. start/stop/restarted the server. then performed a syntax check on proftpd.config. This is what I got: http://pastebin.ca/1084676 | 00:02 |
| neothecat | in Heron, whenever i try to mount a ufs partition, it says unknown type, and even "depmod ufs" says it can't find the module, even though it exists? | 00:02 |
| nvrpunk | Flannel: yeah after apt-get update | 00:02 |
| Flannel | nvrpunk: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:03 |
| koshari | mlLK i have found wine very hit and miss, some apps are really good, some not so, | 00:03 |
| rconan | my root is lvm2 within dmcrypt/luks and I have a nvidia dmraid as well. When I install dmraid and do update-initramfs it wont recognise the key for the dmcrypt/luks bootup authentication | 00:03 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: ok - so it can't get an IP address when it trys to resolve your server hostname | 00:03 |
| elexodus__ | ??? | 00:03 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: what part of that is not clear ? | 00:03 |
| nvrpunk | Flannel: apt-get dist-upgrade updates all older packages? | 00:04 |
| mlLK | koshari, i'm only running 80gigs and dual-booting was just a waste of time for school work | 00:04 |
| lexeaus | Hi all | 00:04 |
| elexodus__ | everything is setup properly. How do I get it to resolve my hostname? | 00:04 |
| Flannel | nvrpunk: yes | 00:04 |
| elexodus__ | ikonia, everything is setup properly. How do I get it to resolve my hostname? | 00:04 |

| clayg | if i want to copy my home directory to my ipod, can i just drag the folder over to it or do i need to issue some special command to make sure no hiddens are left behind? | 00:05 |
| mlLK | koshari, it sucks cuz i have all sorts of space on my desktop, but always get my laptop the way i want everything setup | 00:05 |
| koshari | mlLK i guess if you were seeking a VM solution using windows as a host and ubuntu as guest may be viable, | 00:05 |
| ikonia | lexeaus: vmware doesn't have a good direct hardware interaction | 00:05 |
| elexodus__ | ikonia, found it: MasqueradeAddress | 00:05 |
| ikonia | lexeaus: so hardware needed for visual effects is not esay to setup | 00:05 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: ??? what | 00:05 |
| kitche | clayg: cp -a or cp -r | 00:05 |
| lexeaus | @ikonia that means ? i cant active it ? or is there any way ? | 00:06 |
| mlLK | koshari, windows is boring | 00:06 |
| filthpig | hi, what kind of tool do you recommend for CPU temp monitoring? | 00:06 |
| ikonia | lexeaus: not really | 00:06 |
| Bert_2 | koshari: what's so special about my partitioning table ? | 00:06 |
| clayg | kitche, both do the same? | 00:06 |
| elexodus__ | Ikonia: The DNS... I need to add the MasqueradeAddress123.45.67.89 line into proftpd.conf | 00:06 |
| lexeaus | @ikonia okey thanks anyway ;) | 00:06 |
| Bert_2 | ikonia: any idea how to change the UUID ? | 00:06 |

| elexodus__ | Ikonia, can't I judt do it with my NAP IP? | 00:07 |
| elexodus__ | *NAT | 00:08 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: thats not dns/name resolution | 00:08 |
| mlLK | koshari, i was using cygwin for quite awhile, but, it, is still not nearly as complete | 00:08 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: change your hosname for your ip address will the quick and dirty fix your looking for | 00:08 |
| elexodus__ | Ikonia, we've lost cabin pressure | 00:08 |
| elexodus__ | Ikonia, how do I do that? | 00:08 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: just put your ip in the config | 00:08 |
| ikonia | elexodus__: don't reference the hostname in the config - reference your ip | 00:09 |
| elexodus__ | Ikonia, ex: MasqueradeAddress123.45.67.89 | 00:09 |

| koshari | Bert_2 for your backups have a hidden dir owed by root on the data dir and use partimage to back up the other partitions, because your inside the primay partition barrier and dont then need an extended partition your partitions wil survive a mbr failure | 00:11 |

| sfire | ikonia: running any public service and not knowing about it isn't all that smart | 00:19 |
| koshari | Fezzler however it is better to leave it as it give you access to a recovery console if you have probs, you could give it a nice splash screen if you perfer to not see the basic text screen | 00:19 |

| Ashfire908 | liquid89, you will probaly get a thousand different answers to that question, as with all distro vs distro questions. | 00:57 |
| Blaqlight | hou5ton: use the default ones. | 00:57 |
| hou5ton | Flannel: wacom tablet app | 00:57 |
| ptn107 | hou5ton: the /opt folder is common for custom software | 00:57 |
| Flannel | hou5ton: Does it look like all the stuff belongsin the same folders? | 00:57 |
| Blaqlight | hou5ton: chances are if your using a linux app there are standard installation locations. | 00:57 |
| simard | hou5ton you should understand that an app installs in many directories at once | 00:57 |
| sn4k3 | yes its nice but i have agp | 00:57 |

| Kohlrak | is there a way to start vino? | 01:07 |
| ikonia | Blaqlight: yes, all your problems are down to the fact that your not connected to the wirless lan. The question is what happens when you open an application with a need for sudo/gksudo | 01:07 |

| dez5y | zerogate, It definitely doesn't. It was acting up about an hour ago, then I completely re-installed. | 01:09 |

| ikonia | smellynoser: I doubnt that | 01:09 |
| kitche | sn4k3: put this in your xorg.conf Option "AGPMode" "4" under your video card driver section | 01:09 |

| sn4k3 | kernel makes problem? | 01:12 |
| kitche | sn4k3: the kernel sets it to 4x but xorg will change it to 8x it will disable the kernel agpart so xorg can override the 4x | 01:12 |

| dez5y | zerogate, Well, it stopped earlier today. All I did was unplug the monitor, and plug it up about 5m later. I wanted to clean the screen.. and once i plugged it back up i restarted .. and then that's when it started. so i did a complete reinstall, and it still doesn't work | 01:13 |
| ptn107 | Kohlrak: ifconfig | grep 'inet addr' | 01:13 |
| Shpook | ikonia: Yes, that worked | 01:13 |
| sn4k3 | or need another command? | 01:13 |
| zerogate | dez5y, do you have another os on your system? like windows or sth | 01:14 |
| ikonia | Shpook: ok, thats great news, so the really obvious one is ticked off, so it looks like the initial suggestion of some damage has been done in the drop | 01:14 |
| elexodus_ | ikonia, got it. Thanks for all your help. | 01:14 |
| smellynoser | Nevar! | 01:14 |
| ikonia | elexodus_: ok | 01:14 |
| dez5y | zerogate, Windows is installed on a separate partition | 01:14 |
| dez5y | but it's been installed the whole time, even when it did work. | 01:14 |
| Shpook | ikonia: is there a chance that a bunch of files were just corrupted? | 01:14 |
| dez5y | ohh, reboot to windows to see if it'll do the resolution | 01:15 |
| Kohlrak | Hm, my vnc doesn't seem to work. Does anyone know how to force start vino? | 01:15 |
| zerogate | dez5y, are the drivers still running fine on windows? | 01:15 |
| ikonia | Shpook: no idea of the top of my head, your disk looks "ok" in that it's booted | 01:15 |
| Shpook | I don't mind if I have to try to re-install | 01:15 |
| kitche | sn4k3: if you do set UseInternalAGPGART to no in xorg.conf but you need to look that up to get the exact way to use it sicne I've never had to mess around with agp sicne all my computers use pci or pci-x | 01:15 |
| dez5y | I'll check. Hold on. | 01:15 |
| smellynoser | Shpool: You could try fsck | 01:15 |
| Shpook | smellynoser: fsck fails for me | 01:15 |
| ikonia | Shpook: ok, what does fsck say ? | 01:15 |
| dez5y | zerogate, Yes, it just booted with 1440x900 in Windows. | 01:16 |
| sn4k3 | kitche: ok, thx for the infos | 01:16 |
| dez5y | zerogate, I'm trying to install the new driver. Nvidia won't install unless i go to runlevel 3, but runlevel 3 starts x. How do I get out of X completely but stay at run level 3 ? | 01:16 |
| Shpook | ikonia: Unable to resolve 'UUID= | 01:16 |
| ikonia | Shpook: what command did you do ? | 01:16 |
| Shpook | then of course the UUID | 01:16 |
| Kernel | hello all. is there any kind of app that something that will give me a list of the most unused files/folders in my /home dir? | 01:16 |
| zerogate | dez5y, do you use gnome? | 01:16 |
| dez5y | zerogate, No. Kde. | 01:16 |
| Shpook | ikonia: Just plain fsck | 01:17 |
| Kernel | i think it could be done with ls and grep but i have no idea how to | 01:17 |
| ikonia | Shpook: fsck - no other options ? | 01:17 |
| ptn107 | Kohlrak: try running /usr/lib/vino/vino-server | 01:17 |
| dez5y | zerogate, If I use the open source driver that comes with a ubunt install, it'll let me go up to the 1300 resolution | 01:17 |
| ikonia | Shpook: what happens if you reference it via device file | 01:17 |
| Kohlrak | i'll try that, thanks | 01:17 |

| bhoo | hi how can I get error messages from splash screen? | 01:20 |
| ptn107 | Kohlrak: if you just want to set up your computer so you can access it via remote desktop (vinagre), then you can just go to System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop (which is a shortcut to vino-preferences) | 01:20 |
| zerogate | dez5y, you are sure that there is no program "kde" in /etc/init.d/ ? | 01:20 |

| deebus | I'm running 2.6.24-19 with nVidia Corporation CK804 AC'97 Audio Controller. I had sound awhile ago, but now I have none. I'm pretty sure I upgraded the kernel, perhaps, before the sound stopped working | 01:21 |
| Shpook | ikonia: and it's found errors. Actually, it just aborted because of "can't read next inode" Hard drive? | 01:21 |
| zerogate | dez5y, hmm in gnome i do it with /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 01:22 |
| deebus | does anybody know why my sound just stopped working all of a sudden? | 01:22 |

| bhoo | harpreet: what am i supposed to right click? | 01:23 |

| Shpook | ARGH. So I finally get my network connected, and now my FTP client won't open for me to back everything up. | 01:54 |
| TiredWolf | xttocs, i believe the only possible way to achieve it is a bell, which is what i made you try. see in your terminal emulator's settings if there is a way to turn the audible bell into a visible flashing. if you can do that, then you can most likely also configure irssi to do it. | 01:54 |
| Nutzebahn | No. | 01:54 |

| Lloydie-t | Case you missed it ->I have a cron script which uses lame to convert wav files. but the files never seem to be created. The directories are set to 777 and the script runs fine manually. Any ideas? | 02:06 |

| johncoltrane | Flannel, duiu thanks, I'll try that. My has been freezing since an update a couple of weeks ago, we'll see if that fixes it | 02:08 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | quick question, im trying to install HP printer support, and i need 'pyqt' for GUI support. does it matter if i install pyqt 3 or pyqt 4? | 02:08 |
| duiu | johncoltrane: you could also try sudo apt-get upgrade | 02:08 |

| Shpook | Would dpkg-reconfigure help any? I'm running in X right now, it just won't open most programs. | 02:10 |
| TiredWolf | xttocs: well i think you can just just about everything with echo -e, where \E is the escape character, and \xNNN can be an (hexadecimal) ascii character | 02:10 |
| nickrud_ | DeadKennedy2880 according to the apt-cache depends hplip-gui, you want python-qt3 | 02:10 |

Using the nvidia driver 173.14.09 with my 8500GT - ubuntu will no longer use the resolution i was using (1440x900, which still works under Windows.) i tried re-installig the drivers with envy, no dice. the driver is loaded, x displays, but the biggest resolution i can get it to use now is 1024x768.. | 02:50 |
| quentusrex | I have a computer that I connect to HDMI for the audio and video. It's an Nvidia chipset. Is there a way to automate the detection and configuration of the hdmi interface? | 02:50 |
| nickrud | Fezzler you could use gksu nautilus (using your sudo powers ;) but you still need to remember about changing owners | 02:50 |
| quentusrex | Rather than manually configuring the devices? | 02:50 |

| ubottu | dez5y (note that it's unsupported): envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 02:50 |

| dez5y | jackdaw, No, my xorg contains no lines regarding specific resolutions. But using nvidia's setting manager, it won't use 1440x900. Does the xorg.conf have to contain the 1440x900 in it for nvidia's setting manager to be able to support it? | 02:52 |

| LunarOrca | apache guis | 02:55 |
| harpreet | Fezzler thats true | 02:55 |
| nickrud | DeadKennedy2880 not really a waste, it's important knowledge. First, copy that stuff into a file called hosts on your desktop. Then recovery mode reached by hitting escape when you see something about grub during boot. You'll see a menu with recovery mode. Boot into that. When it's booted, do cp /home/dk/Desktop/hosts /etc/hosts . Then type exit. You'll go to the gui login | 02:55 |
| tkach | tritium, jackdaw thank you, that worked...unfortunately it doesn't seem to have solved my problems. | 02:55 |

| edju | Couldn't get this HP lap to sleep, so messed with /etc/default/acpi-support. Still no sleep, but acpi-support is now so far from what it was that I can't go back. So, renamed it and rebooted, thinking it might regenerate. It didn't. How might I get the original file back? | 03:08 |
| nickrud | DeadKennedy2880 yeah, that should let you sudo | 03:08 |
| a13x | how do i force a file system check at reboot (sudo touch /forcefsck doesn't work) | 03:08 |
| alliecat | i'm trying to install a creative live webcam, and i have it kind of working in camorama, except the image is split into 3 and black and white | 03:08 |
| bef0rd | Hello, is there anyway to set the built in 'pdf printer' to print in landscape mode? | 03:08 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | nickrud: ok should i try the 'hp-setup' command again? | 03:08 |
| Kabal | asda | 03:08 |
| arrenlex | edju: What does "dpkg -S /etc/default/acpi-support" say? | 03:09 |
| nickrud | DeadKennedy2880 try sudo ls , make sure sudo is working | 03:09 |
| dasickis | edju: I tried getting sleep to work a year ago and I tried everything i couldn't get anywhere | 03:09 |
| sliverchair | can I remove the log on screen and automatically use my account? | 03:09 |
| alliecat | why would you want to do that o.O | 03:09 |
| dasickis | edju: i was hoping the scene changed but i never revisited | 03:09 |
| icesword | nickrud, hi, uncl | 03:09 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | nickrud: looks good, no error messages | 03:09 |
| arrenlex | !fsck | a13x | 03:09 |
| ubottu | a13x: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 03:09 |

| nickrud | Charruaenojao not a clue, what repo are you getting gambas from? They should have instructions | 03:19 |
| Sp0tter | bazhang, someone in another help channel said ti couldnt be done too, but it clearly states that a 100% automated install i possible jsut by editing the isolinux.cfg to timeout on your default, and appending your detailed preseeeding file.

| citizen42alpha | erm, vlc should do the trick. | 03:48 |
| virus | to stream out? | 03:48 |
| debian_akroyd | virus, try icecast? ive never used it but i hear that its basically like shoutcast | 03:48 |
| arrenlex | szal: I use it because I only have to start one program this way.. | 03:48 |
| citizen42alpha | jah, vlc supports streaming out. | 03:48 |
| Blaqlight | szal: IRC has been around LONG before instant messeging | 03:49 |
| szal | Blaqlight: that's the exact reason | 03:49 |
| russ | bazhang, one is a usb hard drive that I never remove - that one is showing up twice in the "tree" list | 03:49 |

| bazhang | russ, is it your fstab correctly | 03:49 |
| virus | with vlc is there another repo that i would need to stream out. | 03:49 |

| amadle11 | hello | 03:50 |
| amadle11 | hi wagner | 03:50 |
| bazhang | amadle11, that is vista, correct? what do you need to do with it | 03:50 |
| russ | bazhang, how do I check that? | 03:50 |
| virus | you have a site for that russ | 03:50 |
| bazhang | !fstab | 03:50 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 03:50 |
| bastid_raZor | how do i see from CLI how much space a directory has in it? for example /mp3 | 03:50 |
| Sylphid | bastid_raZor, du -h | 03:51 |
| russ | virus I'm sure I got it from synaptic package manager (system - > administration) | 03:51 |
| bastid_raZor | Sylphid; thanks. | 03:51 |
| amadle11 | bazhang i want to get the i phone thekme on it | 03:51 |
| Blaqlight | bastid_raZor: df -h | 03:51 |
| virus | stream tuner.. kk.. i'll see if i can find it. | 03:51 |
| riegersn | Is there an application to create pdfs with chapters & bookmarks ? | 03:51 |
| bazhang | amadle11, that is using vista, correct? | 03:51 |
| amadle11 | yes bazhang | 03:51 |
| arrenlex | bastid_raZor: du -sh directory/ <-- to produce only a total rather than listing all files | 03:51 |
| bastid_raZor | Blaqlight; df actually pulls all mounted drives.. du -h gives me what i want :) | 03:52 |
| bastid_raZor | arrenlex; okay | 03:52 |
| virus | russ do you know if that programs allows for media to be streamed out to a shoutcast server.. | 03:52 |
| amadle11 | bazhang are u there | 03:52 |

| amadle11 | idk how | 03:55 |

| russ | bazhang, the /etc/fstab file doesn't list any of my removable drives | 03:56 |

| szal | russ: I'd be worried if it did.. | 03:57 |
| amadle11 | can someone help me get the i phone theme on my htc touch plz | 03:57 |
| debian_akroyd | Adondai, thats the thing i hate about WUBI, you have to reinstall wubi in order to increase the size allocated to ubuntu | 03:57 |
| russ | szal, ok that's good then! | 03:57 |
| Adondai | seriousss | 03:58 |
| Adondai | grrrrrrr | 03:58 |
| Adondai | rararara | 03:58 |
| szal | russ: you can, probably for simplicity's sake, put a USB hard drive into fstab, but I doubt that this'd make much sense for pendrives or cameras or whatever | 03:58 |
| szal | normally fstab is for mounting stationary devices | 03:58 |
| Shak- | is there property list (.plist) editor for linux available? | 03:59 |
| dutch | russ: yeah fstab is really for shit that you want your computer always connected to | 03:59 |
| szal | Shak-: if it's plain text, any text editor will do | 03:59 |
| gene2 | does anyone know udev well enough here? | 03:59 |
| gene2 | like really well | 03:59 |
| russ | szal, I don't want to, I'm just trying to figure out why nautilus persists in listing a usb flash drive that has been physically removed. | 03:59 |
| Shak- | szal: I tried gedit and it wouldnt recognize it, vim gave me a bunch of garbage.. so Im pretty sure its not plain text | 03:59 |
| debian_akroyd | note that the admins of this room dont really like cussing at all | 04:00 |

| hackmo | anyone got any idea on where to start looking for a problem? | 04:03 |
| Blaqlight | Shak-: I imagine vim or emacs might. | 04:03 |
| Sydero | well.... you could try winamp | 04:03 |
| Sydero | or whatever | 04:03 |
| dutch | Shak-: what are these plists? what generates them? | 04:03 |
| Sydero | an app that supports pls | 04:03 |
| ranfea | Hackmo, try opening a console and typing "LOL WUT" | 04:03 |
| Shak- | dutch: iphone config files | 04:03 |
| Sydero | should be able to create and edit | 04:03 |
| arrenlex | !alsa | hackmo | 04:03 |
| ubottu | hackmo: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 04:03 |

| will00 | why does apache2 say apache2: could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.1.1 for ServerName...? | 04:05 |
| === sea is now known as sea4ever | ||
| dutch | Shak-: sounds like you're looking for a hex editor. are you modding it with a guide or something? | 04:05 |
| riegersn | irisht, i've tried most of these apps, none of them support adding chapters and bookmarks to pdf. | 04:05 |
| jhb1608 | I have to ask this, but how do I update Labyrinth Mind-mapping to 0.4.1? | 04:05 |
| arrenlex | will00: It can't find a ServerName directive so it's warning you that it's using localhost as the servername. If you expect it to use localhost for the servername, put "ServerName localhost" into /etc/apache2/apache.conf | 04:05 |
| Shak- | dutch: pretty sure I don't need a hex editor, I just think its in some #(*$ propietary apple format so nothing is able to read it properly | 04:05 |
| Flannel | will00: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP#Troubleshooting | 04:05 |
| jhb1608 | I have to ask this, but how do I update Labyrinth Mind-mapping to 0.4.1? I have 0.4.0 now. | 04:06 |
| dutch | Shak-: oh. well in that case you're probably SOL. but i dunno, have you googled thoroughly? | 04:06 |
| arrenlex | will00: Typically a server that is intended to be reached at floobaz.com will have floobaz.com as its server name | 04:06 |
| Shak- | dutch: yep, scoured the ubuntu forums as well | 04:06 |
| Blaqlight | Shak-: why not call apple's tech support, Im sure they'll be happy to help | 04:06 |
| Shak- | Blaqlight: funny | 04:06 |
| Shak- | dutch: I think I might have to get a windows app and use wine | 04:06 |
| Sydero | jhb: sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade should work | 04:06 |
| Flannel | jhb1608: Your version is. | 04:07 |
| bazhang | Shak-, for what | 04:07 |
| jhb1608 | ok | 04:07 |
| russ | riegersn, there is no good substitute in Linux for Adobe Acrobat professional. it's a real problem IMHO. | 04:07 |
| Shak- | bazhang: a plist (properly list) editor | 04:07 |
| dutch | Shak-: as long as you KNOW you dont want to edit the binary with a hex editor, then i dont think theres much you can do. | 04:07 |
| riegersn | crap, im gonna have to use my windows box | 04:07 |
| bazhang | Shak-, game editor or other please specify | 04:07 |
| tanath | jhb1608: have you tried kdissert? | 04:07 |
| riegersn | russ, don't care if its 'good' lol, just need some chapters ;) | 04:07 |
| Sydero | riegersn: why not check synaptic | 04:07 |
| Shak- | bazhang: plist, its some config file format that apple uses on their products, its like xml but much more retarded | 04:07 |
| russ | riegersn, can you create a document in OpenOffice or in TeX with chapters and bookmarks, and then export to pdf? just guessing here. | 04:08 |
| riegersn | Sydero, installed them all, none of them support creating chapters | 04:08 |
| Sydero | :/ | 04:08 |
| bazhang | Shak-, what is the purpose of editing this plist? maybe there is another way to do it | 04:08 |
| jhb1608 | weird. | 04:08 |
| riegersn | russ, tried that as well, OO gives you the option but when you open them up in adobe reader, no chapters found | 04:08 |
| dutch | anyone here use nvidia-settings and have trouble changing their resolution? | 04:08 |
| Shak- | bazhang: nah I need to get into it directly and add some lines for a mod im working on (for my iphone) | 04:08 |
| guest808080 | Shak you could try PListEdit-Pro (FatCatSoftware) or PListEdit (RixStep)but you have to pay for them | 04:09 |
| debian_akroyd | dutch, i did too, but i just use ubuntus resolution switcher now and it works fine on my card | 04:09 |
| russ | riegersn, that is one of the high priority projects for the FSF. Maybe we should send them some money. | 04:09 |
| bazhang | Shak-, not really an ubuntu issue; you might check lifehacker.com and see if they have something | 04:09 |
| gene2 | is there a channel where some technical talk occurs? | 04:09 |
| guest1 | hello i am new | 04:09 |
| gene2 | or this is the only channel with people crying about how they don't know how to use linux? | 04:09 |
| jhb1608 | lol. | 04:10 |
| riegersn | dutch, i just installed ubuntu on my laptop (again), this time around i noticed that nvidia-settings would only give me 1 option for resolution, used to be 2-3 usable options | 04:10 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | !attitude | gene2 | 04:10 |
| ubottu | gene2: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 04:10 |
| dutch | debian_akroyd: ah, interesting. back when i was using VGA, only nvidia-settings would work. now that im using DVI, i figured i should use it as well | 04:10 |
| debian_akroyd | gene2, welcome to the list lol | 04:10 |
| dutch | debian_akroyd: ill try that out | 04:10 |
| bazhang | !irc | gene2 check this list at the end | 04:10 |
| ubottu | gene2 check this list at the end: A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 04:10 |
| jhb1608 | I know linux, but just get confused with linux a lot | 04:10 |
| szal | gene2: define 'technical talk' | 04:10 |
| Shak- | bazhang: its more linux as I cant find a suitable editor (there are windows applications that can open it) | 04:10 |
| Blaqlight | gene2: good way to get people to help you | 04:10 |
| riegersn | russ, yes shame though, this doesn't help tonight | 04:10 |
| Shak- | guest808080: the first one looks like its just for os x | 04:10 |
| Sydero | gene2: try irc.astalavista.net | 04:10 |
| debian_akroyd | dutch, well i use vga on my nvidia...idk maybe you will have some luck | 04:10 |
| irisht | riegersn: have you tried Open Office? Supposedly it will generate table of contents correctly. Not sure about bookmarks though. | 04:10 |
| jhb1608 | Hm.... | 04:10 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | gene2: if you have a question, ask. or were you never a new user? perhaps you came out of the womb with guru-like knowledge of linux? | 04:10 |
| bazhang | Shak-, but not a ubuntu support issue, more of a chat item; please take to #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:10 |
| riegersn | russ, oh well, time to fire up the old windows box | 04:11 |

| jhb1608 | I agree. | 04:12 |

| szal | Sydero: what do you expect in a channel w/ >1200 ppl? o0 | 04:13 |
| debian_akroyd | Sydero, thats why we pm each other if the problem is that critical. plus we use their names at the beginning of the line so we know who were tlaking too | 04:13 |

| irisht | riegersn: If that doesn't work you might just have to get yourself a copy of the Adobe tools. There are several programming APIs that will do what you want, but doesn't sound like you want to be writing software to get this done. :-) | 04:13 |
| Shak- | bazhang: got it - http://scw.us/iPhone/plutil/ - not a clean solution but it'll work | 04:13 |
| tanath | jhb1608: doesn't look like it. supports .kdi, .mm, and .kno | 04:13 |
| Atomicsunset | but all i can get is a similar style that displays what windows i currently have open | 04:13 |
| bazhang | Shak-, nice work | 04:14 |
| jhb1608 | it is ok | 04:14 |
| jhb1608 | is it is easy to use? | 04:14 |

| tanath | jhb1608: yep | 04:14 |
| Atomicsunset | i was under the impression that u could use it like a quick launch bar | 04:14 |
| bazhang | Atomicsunset, that is awn | 04:14 |
| debian_akroyd | well im saying if its that critical | 04:14 |
| riegersn | irisht, not really i need this tomorrow for work. oh well | 04:14 |
| Atomicsunset | im using awn i believe | 04:14 |
| jhb1608 | ok I'll try it now :) | 04:14 |
| debian_akroyd | ive had some people pm me because it was that critical of a problem | 04:14 |

| jhb1608 | I just want to tell you, I love Ubuntu! | 04:15 |

| will00 | now it returns the error (98 | 04:15 |
| jhb1608 | I'll try it anyways | 04:15 |
| tanath | jhb1608: but i imagine the package will update to point to it at that time | 04:15 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: ubuntu with fluxbox. | 04:15 |

| guest1 | also restart | 04:22 |
| riegersn | will00, are you trying to auto launch an app at login that requires a sudo pass? | 04:22 |
| bazhang | leave it in and restart with it in and then try ifconfig and see if there are three entries or two guest1 | 04:23 |
| will00 | riegersn: yes, more specifically grpoftpd | 04:23 |
| riegersn | will00, you can add a line to your sudoers file to allow specific users to launch without a pass | 04:23 |

| Blaqlight | your barking up the wrong 1200+ limbed tree here with windows man. | 04:27 |
| tkach | This is weird, and kind of annoying. The first time I installed Hardy, i could see my networked computers (under Windows Network), I recently did a fresh install and now networking doesn't work (but I can connect to the internet). Vista, on the same machine, sees the network just fine. | 04:27 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | Spotter: LiveCD just choose guided, on empty drive, works for me | 04:30 |
| irisht | acp_: postgres password is randomly generated. Assuming you can sudo, become the postgres user and you can then connect and do what you need. | 04:30 |
| bazhang | Sp0tter, if you dont get an answer here you might also ask in #ubuntu-server | 04:30 |
| jhb1608 | yup I'm serious | 04:30 |
| jhb1608 | XD | 04:30 |
| greg__ | I had too much trouble trying to configure Firestarter | 04:30 |
| Sp0tter | ah bazhang, ok thank you | 04:30 |
| tanath | jhb1608: i prolly have it installed. i have a couple kde apps: kdissert, & k3b | 04:30 |
| bazhang | greg__, nothing easier, man iptables is much harder :) | 04:31 |
| irisht | acp_: If you absolutely have to have it for some reason you can always change it, but I've found it's rare that you'd need it. | 04:31 |
| tanath | and maybe one or two others i'm forgetting | 04:31 |
| jhb1608 | hm. | 04:31 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: I have all of the kde-games package installed without kde, along with all of gnome, in the fluxbox menus. | 04:31 |
| timlarson_ | I force-quit'ed a terminal, which make all of the terminals disappear | 04:31 |
| tanath | jhb1608: so it's not letting you run kdissert? | 04:31 |
| timlarson_ | then I started a new terminal, which auto-greyed | 04:31 |
| timlarson_ | and froze | 04:31 |
| acp_ | @irisht i need to execute initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data | 04:31 |
| greg__ | But when I set up Firestarter it wipes out my network! | 04:32 |
| timlarson_ | so I cannot even start a new terminal after killing the old ones | 04:32 |
| wols | greg__: why do you need a firewall in the first place? | 04:32 |
| === robert__ is now known as Guest90902 | ||
| acp_ | coz its a fresh installation and I need to create a db | 04:32 |
| Blaqlight | greg__: firestarter is only a frontend for iptables | 04:32 |
| greg__ | wols, for obvious reasons, namely security. | 04:33 |
| irisht | acp_: "sudo su - postgres" | 04:33 |
| wols | greg__: BS | 04:33 |
| wols | greg__: adding complexity never increased security | 04:33 |
| bazhang | irisht, why su | 04:33 |
| greg__ | Ok, thanks Wols. | 04:33 |
| Blaqlight | !iptables | greg__ | 04:34 |
| ubottu | greg__: 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). | 04:34 |
| bazhang | !sudo | irisht | 04:34 |
| ubottu | irisht: 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) | 04:34 |
| irisht | bazhang: He wants to become postgres without reseting the password. | 04:34 |
| filac | i was wondering if someone had a moment to assist me with a renewing ip issue on my wireless card ? | 04:34 |
| filac | anyone have a moment ? | 04:34 |
| bazhang | filac, ask away | 04:34 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | sure filac | 04:34 |
| tanath | will installing firestarter interfere with an existing firewall script? | 04:35 |
| filac | great, finished a new install recently. Additionally setup my wireless card with updated drivers | 04:35 |
| Blaqlight | tanath: like which one? | 04:35 |
| tanath | Blaqlight: a custom one | 04:35 |
| filac | I connect to my internal network fine however it doesnt appear Im getting an ip assigned nor can i get out externally | 04:35 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | filac: did your wireless work before you upgraded the drivers ? | 04:36 |
| filac | i checked my ip setings and they are all blank, ip/gway/ etc | 04:36 |
| wols | tanath: installing it won't. using it will | 04:36 |
| filac | no it didnt | 04:36 |
| tanath | wols: does 'using' include 'running'? | 04:36 |
| filac | but does now for internal net | 04:36 |
| wols | filac: if there is no IP assigned you can't use your internal network either. | 04:36 |
| wols | tanath: no | 04:37 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | filac: check in System/Administration/Network on the mnuebar | 04:37 |
| wols | filac: they are certainly not blank. ifconfig -a | 04:37 |
| joe_chat | lates kernel update 2.6.24.20 loads gdm but not gnome any ideas | 04:37 |
| tanath | wols: does it configure itself to apply changes at boot | 04:37 |
| tanath | ? | 04:37 |
| filac | I understand the internal comment, however when i check to see what has been assigned its blank , but still connects to my wap | 04:38 |
| tanath | wols: if so, would it not affect the existing custom script? | 04:38 |

| jhb1608 | I'm trying to understand before I do something. | 04:50 |
| Gnea | uh | 04:50 |
| jmichaelx | i recently installed ubuntu on an older PC for a friend. after the installation, 3D acceleration was not working properly (this PC has an onboard intel video adaptor), so i ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and to my great surprise, it did not ask any questions pertaining to the video driver or the monitor. why would this be? | 04:50 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: here | 04:50 |
| jhb1608 | k | 04:51 |
| hhp2k | Hey guys, here's an interesting problem for you. | 04:51 |
| Gnea | Bergwolf: are you doing anything specific when it happens or is it more random? | 04:51 |
| wols | jhb1608: cause X config changed | 04:51 |
| jhb1608 | huh? | 04:51 |
| hhp2k | I've had this problem for a while, and had previously concluded that it was a hardware issue - but I'm not sure. | 04:51 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: do this type apt-cache show khelpcenter it will tell you what and where it is. | 04:51 |
| wols | jhb1608: glxinfo | 04:51 |
| wols | jmichaelx: cause X config changed | 04:51 |
| jhb1608 | ok | 04:51 |
| jhb1608 | I'll do that blaq | 04:51 |
| Bergwolf | Gnea, it happens for a while since my last upgrade to hardy | 04:51 |
| wols | Blaqlight: it only shows what khelpcenter IS: dpkg -L khelpcenter will tell you where it is | 04:52 |
| jmichaelx | wols: it apparently has changed a lot. i also saw that xorg.conf did not have the info i was used to seeing. | 04:52 |
| jhb1608 | it's ok I just need to know what it is | 04:52 |
| io__ | I want to run an experiment to see if ufw is somehow, broken. It says port 137 is open, iptables has no mention of 137 being open. Can I issue a command to iptables to open only 137? | 04:52 |
| tanath | jhb1608, Blaqlight, 'khelpcenter' is a package in the repos | 04:52 |
| Blaqlight | wait it proves my point about what is required for it. | 04:52 |
| hhp2k | When I press the # key, I get /. When I press the ? key, I get É. When I press other symbol keys.. sometimes I don't get anything at all. It's become pretty confusing, and is making my computer very hard to use - does anyone know why this is happening* | 04:52 |
| jmichaelx | wols: what method does one use now to reconfigure X? | 04:52 |
| tanath | hhp2k: keyboard layout | 04:52 |
| Gnea | Bergwolf: ouch... only thing i can think of is to back stuff up and reinstall hardy from the get-go instead of upgrading... i've had upgrades slip up on something minor or major now and then.. but haven't seen that one | 04:53 |
| Blaqlight | ... I should have never mentioned fluxbox, this wouldn't be happeneing right now ... | 04:53 |
| will00 | should my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf file be empty? | 04:53 |
| wols | jmichaelx: edit by hand if the autodetect screws up | 04:53 |
| wols | will00: yes | 04:53 |
| bogeyman | anyone ever burn a .dmg image on ubuntu? | 04:53 |

| hhp2k | tanath: It's set to Apple (I have this stupid mac keyboard right now), Canadian 105 key. What should it be? | 04:53 |
| jhb1608 | ok it is not install, how do I install it? | 04:53 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: did you type apt-cache show khelpcenter into a terminal? | 04:53 |
| jmichaelx | wols: how would a person know how to edit by hand to enable 3D acceleration, or other tweaks? | 04:53 |
| wols | jhb1608: like any other package | 04:53 |
| jhb1608 | yes | 04:54 |
| tanath | hhp2k: not sure, but you can try different ones | 04:54 |
| obidiah | bazhang: thx. looks like he made some bot angry | 04:54 |
| wols | jhb1608: by reading manuals. and to enable 3D it'S supposedly not needed. I told you a command to run | 04:54 |
| jmichaelx | dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg kept setting the video driver to 'vesa' | 04:54 |
| guest808080 | you have canadian multilingue installed hhp2j | 04:54 |
| bazhang | obidiah, it was the piracy talk actually; not allowed here | 04:54 |
| tanath | jmichaelx: try gksu displayconfig-gtk | 04:54 |
| obidiah | bazhang: ah ok | 04:54 |
| will00 | wols: iv just been trying to ditch the error message (98) Address already in use,: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80 no listening sockets available, shutting down | 04:54 |
| jhb1608 | give me that command dpkg -l right? | 04:54 |
| jmichaelx | ty tanath | 04:54 |
| tanath | jmichaelx: even has a test button | 04:54 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: type sudo aptitude install khelpcenter | 04:54 |
| wols | will00: something is already running on the port. netstat -anp as root to find out | 04:55 |

| jhb1608 | it's fine | 04:55 |
| Blaqlight | including kdebase. | 04:55 |
| jhb1608 | it's ok | 04:55 |
| mrtech | not yet i dont know how .im still new to al this | 04:55 |
| Blaqlight | which I said 30 minutes ago already. | 04:56 |
| Awsoonn | what is the best way to find out what package an installed program belongs to? | 04:56 |
| jhb1608 | I just need it to load khelp thing | 04:56 |
| seanp2k2 | i'm having a problem with gusty gibbon x86 on an IBM laptop, pentium 3 | 04:56 |
| jhb1608 | :) | 04:56 |
| Blaqlight | how big is the download? | 04:56 |
| jhb1608 | ok done | 04:56 |
| Gnea | mrtech: okay, are you familiar with the terminal/command line yet? | 04:56 |
| seanp2k2 | on the boot loader screen for the installer, i hit enter on "install ubuntu" and the cd spins up, then nothing happens | 04:56 |
| jhb1608 | ok I'm opening kdissert | 04:56 |
| filac | Anyone know why my wireless card continues to ask for the wep passphrase ? | 04:56 |
| filac | I enter it and it accepts then it pops back up in about 5 minutes.. Additionally I cannot seem to connect via wireless although it appears Im connected by the looks of the status | 04:56 |

| harpreet | filac: its not going thru..restart | 04:57 |
| mrtech | i know how to get to the terminal | 04:57 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: that solve your problem? | 04:57 |
| will00 | wols: ok i found that it was cherokee that was soaking it up, which would explain why the web page works, but ampache doesnt | 04:57 |
| jhb1608 | hold on | 04:57 |
| Gnea | mrtech: do you know how to find out what the partition name is? | 04:57 |
| Blaize | hi, I want to upgrade a gutsy install that doesn't have access to the internet. Is there a way I can download the files necessary to install onto a usb drive and upgrade it that way? | 04:57 |
| timlarson_ | gnome-terminal freezes, the "System Log" tool freezes, but xterm is happy | 04:57 |
| jhb1608 | yay! | 04:57 |
| timlarson_ | what would cause this? | 04:57 |
| tanath | Blaqlight: why does kde have such crazy dependencies? reminds me of windows... :-/ | 04:58 |
| mrtech | i dont | 04:58 |
| jhb1608 | it works | 04:58 |
| SilentHive | sorry bazhang, I was experiencing some problems with my system | 04:58 |
| wols | tanath: gnome isn't different | 04:58 |
| tanath | jhb1608: :) | 04:58 |
| SilentHive | so what other info do you need | 04:58 |
| Blaqlight | tanath: I told you it would. kde4 is unpopular for that and a few other reasons. | 04:58 |
| hosk | I moved my computer today, physically. Now my username is not in the sudoers file and my root account seems to have magically changed, any suggestions short of hoping for a miracle on the next restart? | 04:58 |
| jmichaelx | Blaize: are you wanting to upgrade to hardy? | 04:58 |
| jhb1608 | Hm | 04:58 |
| tanath | wols: no? :-/ | 04:58 |
| Blaize | jmichaelx: yes | 04:58 |
| hosk | root account password, i mean | 04:58 |
| jhb1608 | now I need ot find that handbook for kdissert | 04:58 |
| tanath | Blaqlight: such as? | 04:58 |
| filac | sorry that wasnt intended to be a repeat, my connection dropped i wasnt sure it posted, thx | 04:58 |
| Gnea | mrtech: okay - there are a couple of ways to find out, but we'll go with the easiest, since it will help you out in the long run. :) run this command in one terminal: tail -f /var/log/syslog | 04:58 |
| Gnea | mrtech: then open another terminal | 04:58 |
| Bergwolf | Gnea, ooohhh, no... I don't want to reinstall... It cost too much time.... I searched in google and only find ubuntu users reporting this bug, so I think I should wait a while to update again | 04:59 |
| tanath | jhb1608: handbook? it's easy enough to use... | 04:59 |
| jmichaelx | Blaize: i think you should just download the hardy CD, and upgrade using that | 04:59 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: you need kde docs now too | 04:59 |
| tanath | jhb1608: what for? | 04:59 |
| jhb1608 | ok | 04:59 |
| mlLK | anyone here use fuse? | 04:59 |
| tanath | er, Blaqlight, what for? | 04:59 |
| mrtech | ok hold on pls | 04:59 |
| jhb1608 | so I can able to understand how to use kdissert | 04:59 |
| mlLK | w/ samba | 04:59 |
| jhb1608 | :) | 04:59 |
| Blaqlight | jhb1608: you got the reader now you need the book. | 04:59 |
| io__ | ok I ran the following: "sudo iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT" what would I have to do to enable ICMP ? | 04:59 |
| mlLK | !fuse | 04:59 |
| ubottu | FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE. Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems | 04:59 |
| seanp2k2 | i'm stuck at this screen: http://taqeem.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/vista_ubuntu_05article-width.jpg ....what other boot options should I try? | 05:00 |
| jhb1608 | ok how do i install that kde docs? | 05:00 |
| tanath | jhb1608: i don't find it complicated.. | 05:00 |
| mrtech | ok | 05:00 |
| jhb1608 | I try to make a box with text and tried to edit it | 05:00 |
| jmichaelx | i use sshfs a lot, so i guess i would count as a fuse user | 05:00 |
| tanath | jhb1608: works similarly to labyrinth | 05:00 |
| nitrus1 | i just did an upgrade from dapper drake to hardy and my ethernet interface is getting mapped to eth2 instead of eth1, im supposed to change that in /etc/udev/rules/70-persistent-net.rules right? i think i managed to get it back to eth1 but now if i do ifconfig eth1 up i get SIOCSIFFLAGS invalid argument | 05:00 |
| Gnea | !iptables | io__ | 05:00 |
| ubottu | io__: 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). | 05:00 |
| tanath | jhb1608: double-click | 05:00 |
| jhb1608 | Hm. ok | 05:01 |
| mlLK | should cvs repos work w/ svn? | 05:01 |
| tanath | jhb1608: then you just click on it to edit | 05:01 |
| tanath | jhb1608: you select a box, and edit at the bottom | 05:01 |
| Gnea | mlLK: no, they are 2 entirely different repository types | 05:01 |
| Blaize | this gutsy install has an atheros card... the restricted driver is installed and the ath_pci module was loaded, but the interface doesn't appear for some reason... Do you think an upgrade to hardy will fix this? | 05:01 |
| Lordgreggreg1 | is ubuntu a 2.6.x kernel? | 05:01 |
| Gnea | Lordgreggreg1: yes. | 05:01 |
| jhb1608 | oh! | 05:01 |
| Lordgreggreg1 | ty :) | 05:01 |
| jhb1608 | duh | 05:01 |
| tanath | jhb1608: title, description, and even links to other docs on the right | 05:02 |
| mrtech | ok i did it | 05:02 |
| jmichaelx | Blaize: it would certainly be worth a try. | 05:02 |
| Sydero | Could anyone recommend any packages or links for hardening ubuntu? | 05:02 |
| tanath | jhb1608: and you can make links to seperate boxes with middle-click & drag | 05:02 |
| nalioth | bogeyman: google "dmg2iso" | 05:02 |
| jhb1608 | Hm. | 05:02 |
| bogeyman | will the macbook recognize it with that? | 05:03 |
| bogeyman | bc i burned one on windows and my macbook would not recognize it | 05:03 |
| jhb1608 | HOW DO i MAKE A LINE? | 05:03 |
| Gnea | Sydero: http://www.itsecurity.com/features/ubuntu-secure-install-resource/ , http://www.linuxforums.org/security/locking_down_ubuntu.html | 05:03 |
| jhb1608 | sorry | 05:04 |
| jhb1608 | my keyboard caps was on | 05:04 |
| tanath | jhb1608: like i said, middle-click & drag | 05:04 |
| jhb1608 | oh | 05:04 |
| mlLK | is fuse dangerous? | 05:04 |

| wols | boggystudios: my guessi s you used nvidia.com installer or envy or such after you installed nvidia-glx | 05:05 |
| wols | !ccsm | silas_ | 05:06 |

| io__ | yes. it told me to RTFM | 05:06 |
| mrtech | ok i waited 10sec | 05:06 |

| Gnea | no, man iptables would be RTFM :) | 05:06 |
| silas_ | cheers win :P | 05:06 |
| Gnea | io__: there's also #iptables and #netfilter, which are much more situated to deal with individual questions regarding how to use firewall software | 05:07 |

| boggystudios | wols: http://pastebin.com/m190f708e no I just tried 'apt-get install nvidia-glx' instead of the auto installer | 05:07 |
| Blaqlight | io__: you don't need to use such language. | 05:07 |
| wols | boggystudios: that's not what I said | 05:07 |
| jhb1608 | g2g | 05:07 |
| crimsun | io__: note that if you use hardy, you can use ufw, too. | 05:08 |
| io__ | not my intention to offend. | 05:08 |
| tanath | Read The Friendly Manual??? :P | 05:08 |
| Gnea | yeah really | 05:08 |
| boggystudios | wols: sorry, I misread your post. but no I haven't used the envy installer or the official nvidia installer at all | 05:08 |
| io__ | ok. I started this thread using ufw, which as far as I understand is a frontend to iptables. when I disable ufw, I can ping a machine on my LAN. when I enable it I can't | 05:09 |
| tanath | io__: you'll need rules to allow pinging | 05:09 |
| crimsun | io__: err, are you dropping outbound by default, too? | 05:09 |
| io__ | that means firewall yes? So then I go and add the ports I think are supposed to be open on a windows XP network for normal communication (ie 137, 138, 139 etc.) | 05:10 |
| Gnea | io__: seriously, that website, #iptables and #netfilter will be able to provide you with a much more definative answer than we will be able to. | 05:10 |
| seanp2k2 | I have an ibm 2652-35u laptop (p3 1Ghz) and have debian 4.1 loaded on it, yet ubuntu 8 will not get past cd loader screen. I select an option and it spins the cd, then does nothing. The menu is still active, it does not freeze or change screens. | 05:10 |
| Rat409 | io__: firestarter might be easier its another gui-front end to iptables | 05:10 |
| Blaqlight | seanp2k2: did you checksum/errorcheck the dvd/cd's | 05:10 |
| seanp2k2 | no, however, this problem also occurs with a ubuntu 7 disc | 05:11 |
| bazhang | seanp2k2, did you md5 the iso and do disk integrity check | 05:11 |
| crimsun | io__: by default, ufw enable + ufw default deny => does not drop outgoing by default | 05:11 |
| mrtech | * | 05:11 |
| sjovan | seanp2k2: you could always download the alternate cd... | 05:11 |
| io__ | thanks gnea. Think I'll try there. Appreciate the help offered | 05:11 |
| bazhang | seanp2k2, then you need to fiddle with the boot params | 05:11 |
| Gnea | io__: good luck | 05:11 |
| seanp2k2 | the disc integrity check does the same thing, screen doesn't change but cd spins up | 05:11 |
| io__ | thanks | 05:11 |
| seanp2k2 | i have tried a few boot options | 05:11 |
| bazhang | seanp2k2, remove quiet and splash and see the exact errors | 05:12 |
| honeykiss | hi | 05:12 |
| Blaqlight | seanp2k2: I had so many problems with that that the only way I could get a useable ubuntu system was to install kubuntu 6.04 and upgrade. | 05:12 |
| honeykiss | is there someone important | 05:12 |
| bazhang | ask away honeykiss | 05:12 |
| tanath | can anyone help me with gpg? running 'gpg --clearsign *' wants to use the wrong key... | 05:12 |
| FAJALOU1 | !ask | tanath | 05:13 |
| ubottu | tanath: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 05:13 |
| tanath | FAJALOU1: i did ask the question | 05:13 |
| seanp2k2 | Blaqlight, yes, i was wondering if there was a way to upgrade from debian etch to gusty gibbon, but i'm thinking not since that is a different kernel and distro | 05:13 |
| tanath | FAJALOU1: albeit indirectly | 05:13 |
| mrtech | its pluged up | 05:13 |
| bazhang | seanp2k2, not to my knowledge | 05:13 |
| seanp2k2 | removing quiet and splash has no effect | 05:13 |
| cratel | join #dataflow | 05:14 |
| bazhang | seanp2k2, you could also try alternate cd, minimal iso or unetbootin | 05:14 |
| seanp2k2 | i am currently downloading the alternate CD and will give that a whirl and report back here and possibly post a forum note on this | 05:14 |
| Blaqlight | seanp2k2: this was awhile back, I tried all the cd's I could find (6 total) and none of them worked.. I had to use an old cd I had laying around that had worked. | 05:14 |
| crimsun | seanp2k2: it's known as a cross-grade, and while it's most certainly not supported, it's very much possible. | 05:14 |
| Blaqlight | seanp2k2: I never did figure out the problem | 05:14 |
| Rat409 | seanp2k2: try nolapic noapic acpi=off apm=reboot panic=5 | 05:14 |
| seanp2k2 | crimsun, i figure if i can just boot it possibly single user, unmount the file system, then manually install it | 05:15 |
| daniele | ..... | 05:15 |
| seanp2k2 | Rat409, this also yields no effect | 05:16 |
| Rat409 | mileage varys | 05:16 |
| Rat409 | seanp2k2: might add noscsi other than that no more ideas ftm | 05:16 |
| Rat409 | seanp2k2: bad download or bad burn maybe | 05:16 |
| mrtech | what do i do after i wait 10 sec | 05:17 |
| harpreet | mrtech: u wait more | 05:17 |
| tanath | no one familiar with gpg? | 05:17 |
| Gnea | mrtech: plug it back in | 05:17 |
| mortis_ | Ugh. I'm having a problem | 05:17 |
| seanp2k2 | Rat409, i have never had a bad disc burned from this pc / drive / disc spindle, however I will not discard the possibility of corrupt media. I will however try the alternate CD in a moment and report the results here. Thank you for your input. | 05:17 |
| mrtech | i mean i, i did | 05:18 |
| santiago | Hello | 05:18 |
| Dedi | anyone managed to get ubuntu-modules running with a custom compiled kernel? (what i did yet: http://tinyurl.com/5szfrd ) | 05:18 |

| silas_ | /sigh, i just installed an emerald skin and the panels arn't changing to what it looks like within the printscreen preview... | 05:22 |
| silas_ | The fix would be? | 05:22 |
| Gnea | choose a different skin? | 05:23 |
| Blaqlight | silas_: close and reopen the window. | 05:23 |
| unewbie | anyone installed ebox? | 05:23 |
| Blaqlight | silas_: also if that doesn't work, use the import funtion instead. | 05:23 |

| Blaqlight | silas_: thats the gnome-panel | 05:24 |

| Blaqlight | emerald doesn't change anything with that except the overlays and such, not the colors. | 05:24 |
| armr | #backtrack | 05:24 |
| silas_ | Blaqlight: How would i go about customizing the gnome-panels? | 05:25 |
| Rat409 | silas_: try alt+F2 gnome-panel --restart | 05:25 |
| Gnea | mrtech: er, yeah, pasting isn't a good idea here - try this command: sudo e2fsck /dev/sdf1 | 05:25 |
| Blaqlight | silas_: System > Appearence | 05:25 |
| santiago | Which X-server do u recomend me to install compiz-fusion? AIGLX, Xgl or Xgl simple (i'm not an experienced user) | 05:25 |
| Blaqlight | err System > preferences > appearence | 05:25 |
| Blaqlight | santiago: all will work I belive | 05:26 |
| santiago | no big difference between them? i mean isnt there one more advanced and more complicated to install? (asking so i dont choose that one :D) | 05:26 |
| silas_ | This didn't change the panel, also is there a shortcut to put someones name ie username: msg rather than typing there username? | 05:27 |
| Blaqlight | I don't think so, I might be wrong. | 05:27 |
| Blaqlight | silas_: tab | 05:27 |
| santiago | well i'll choose one randomly :P | 05:27 |
| sjovan | santiago: compiz is installed by default... | 05:27 |
| mrtech | its says try running e2fsck-b 8193 device | 05:27 |
| Blaqlight | santiago: use aiglx | 05:28 |
| santiago | i was recomended to install it by the add/take applications | 05:29 |
| Blaqlight | santiago: yeah | 05:30 |
| silas_ | sorry about all the questions -.- here's another one, i installed the media player XMMS but i don't know how to launch it i did the whole ./ocnfigure make make install but i can't find the launcher, don't tell me i newb out and it's a thirdparty addon to a media player =/ | 05:30 |
| santiago | oh lol :) i'm new at ubuntu | 05:30 |
| Blaqlight | !xmms | silas_ | 05:30 |
| ubottu | silas_: xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious instead. | 05:30 |
| santiago | Blaqlight: thanks for ur help :) | 05:31 |
| === thunderstruck is now known as gnomefreak | ||
| silas_ | That would explain it, cheers. | 05:31 |
| Blaqlight | silas_: btw, there is a package called xmms2 | 05:32 |
| Blaqlight | its installed/required for xmms2tray | 05:32 |
| === Shubbar_________ is now known as Shubbar | ||
| Blaqlight | silas_: its nothing like the old xmms though, just a daemon | 05:32 |
| rkvirani | Anyone know which WM will give me clean simplicity like OSX? | 05:32 |
| gardar | doesn't fsck work with fat32? | 05:33 |
| Blaqlight | rkvirani: how simple | 05:33 |
| Sydero | Is grsecurity available as a ubuntu package or do I have to install by hand? | 05:33 |
| silas_ | Right, but with audacious it doesn't playback any sound from my mp3s unlike rythmbox, any reason why | 05:33 |
| rkvirani | Blaqlight: you know, the finder doc type deal | 05:33 |
| silas_ | also the tab key to talk back doesn't work -.- | 05:33 |
| rkvirani | awn like dock with a simple file-manager, kind of like finder | 05:33 |
| rkvirani | I would run ume-launcher but... it requires drivers that I dont have access to (HP 2133) | 05:34 |
| santiago | anyone knows how to add that 3d cube effect + other efects with compiz? | 05:34 |
| Blaqlight | xfce is your beat, unless you want really simple then flux/open/black-box is your thing | 05:34 |
| silas_ | ohh i know this one :D | 05:34 |
| santiago | do i only have to check the box cube? | 05:34 |

| pavan | hi all.. recently did a dist upgrade to 8.04 .. now i see 3 packages in my Update Manager.. which just doesn't get upgraded.. and they are listed as part of "dist upgrade".. | 05:34 |
| gardar | Nobody that knows if fsck works with fat32? | 05:34 |
| pavan | any ideas how i can upgrade themm | 05:34 |
| santiago | ok ty | 05:34 |
| rkvirani | Blaqlight: hrm.. its been a while since I used xfce I will give it a shot. | 05:35 |
| Blaqlight | xfce uses thunar | 05:35 |
| Blaqlight | rkvirani: open/black/flux-box use gnome or kde stuff. | 05:35 |
| pavan | the 3 packages are "libglib1.2-dev" .. "libgtk1.2".. "liborbit0" | 05:36 |
| tkach | This is weird, and kind of annoying. The first time I installed Hardy, i could see my networked computers (under Windows Network), I recently did a fresh install and now networking doesn't work (but I can connect to the internet). Vista, on the same machine, sees the network just fine. | 05:36 |
| pavan | any suggestions.. anyone?? | 05:37 |
| FAJALOU1 | I am looking for a wireless usb adapter that will work basically right out of the box; does anyone have any suggestions. i hear that atheros is the best b/c they are in the restricted adapters, but my usb one is not supported, does anyone have any suggestions? | 05:37 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: what are you looking for? | 05:38 |
| irisht | pavan: Try it from the command line and see what it says? | 05:38 |
| rkvirani | dasickis: OSX :D | 05:38 |
| Gnea | mrtech: i may have missed something... is that disk formatted for ext3 or ntfs? | 05:38 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: ooo i have a great tutorial | 05:39 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: bb | 05:39 |
| Rat409 | gardar: sudo /sbin/fsck.vfat | 05:39 |
| Gnea | pavan: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:39 |
| jmichaelx | FAJALOU1: i would recommend the belkin wireless G usb network adapter (i don't kow about the wireless N version) | 05:39 |
| Blaqlight | dasickis: he doesn't want it too look like OSX, he wants it too funtion like it. | 05:39 |
| FAJALOU1 | jmichaelx: did it work out of the box for you? | 05:39 |
| rkvirani | bb | 05:39 |
| rkvirani | blackbox | 05:39 |
| Blaqlight | dasickis: big difference. | 05:39 |
| jmichaelx | FAJALOU1: there are 3 different versions of that USB adapter, with three different chipsets, but they all three will work in ubuntu. | 05:39 |
| FAJALOU1 | jmichaelx: i know they will work, but will they work out of the box, no setup? | 05:40 |
| dasickis | Blaqlight: he wants the GUI to function like it? | 05:40 |
| Blaqlight | rkvirani: Im using fluxbox. but to search for files I have to use nautilus (because I have gnome installed) | 05:40 |
| jmichaelx | FAJALOU1: yes, mine worked out of the box. it has the rt73 chipset, which has support built into the 2.6.24 (and up) kernel | 05:40 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: http://www.taimila.com/?q=node/11 take a look at that | 05:41 |
| bazhang | FAJALOU1, ralink possibly | 05:41 |
| jmichaelx | FAJALOU1: mine worked out of the box, no setup | 05:41 |
| rkvirani | dasickis: I;ve seen it :D | 05:41 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: ok cool | 05:41 |
| cellofellow | nm-applet is storing keys in the "default" keyring and requires me to enter a password to unlock it at login. On top of that it often forgets passwords and requires entering them manually, often several times. I have a little script that I use to restart the NetworkManager daemon and the ndiswrapper module, and that often helps. How do I get nm-applet to not forget keys and to use the "login" keyring? | 05:41 |
| rkvirani | Maybe I dont know what I want | 05:41 |
| rkvirani | anyways | 05:41 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: so exactly what are you trying to do ? | 05:41 |
| FAJALOU1 | bazhang: i am on an airlink usb, and all it needed was ndiswrapper... | 05:41 |
| rkvirani | thanks for the suggestions | 05:41 |
| rkvirani | perhaps I will give XFCE a look. | 05:41 |
| dasickis | rkvirani: i missed your last things | 05:42 |
| dasickis | messages* | 05:42 |
| jmichaelx | FAJALOU1: what chipset does that card use? | 05:42 |
| Blaqlight | lol | 05:42 |
| bazhang | FAJALOU1, for out of the box ralink is the most likely | 05:42 |
| jmichaelx | ralink used to suck in linux, but now it is great | 05:42 |
| FAJALOU1 | jmichaelx: atheros, but madwifi doesn't support usb... | 05:42 |
| FAJALOU1 | bazhang: ralink? i'll check on it | 05:42 |
| Blaqlight | dasickis: I think I confused him with all the options available.. | 05:42 |
| bazhang | FAJALOU1, it is the rt73 that jmichaelx was talking about | 05:42 |
| cellofellow | anyone know what is up with nm-applet keys? | 05:43 |
| jmichaelx | FAJALOU1: i see. that may be changing. atheros is fixing to GPL a lot of their driver info.... most of it will wind up in the linux kernel | 05:43 |
| tkach | This is weird, and kind of annoying. The first time I installed Hardy, i could see my networked computers (under Windows Network), I recently did a fresh install and now networking doesn't work (but I can connect to the internet). Vista, on the same machine, sees the network just fine. (Would switching to xubuntu or kubuntu make any difference?) | 05:43 |
| peepsalot | can anyone help me configure audacity for my sound device? I can't get it to play anything | 05:43 |
| dasickis | Blaqlight: haha that's one problem with Linux or ... choice | 05:43 |
| mrtech | its ntfs | 05:43 |
| FAJALOU1 | jmichaelx: that's convenient | 05:43 |
| cellofellow | peepsalot: try using pasuspender -- audacity | 05:43 |
| Blaqlight | tkach: as for the part in parentheses no it wouldn't | 05:43 |
| FAJALOU1 | bazhang: you think that ralink is a good idea/ | 05:44 |
| peepsalot | cellofellow, i don't know what that is | 05:44 |
| cellofellow | peepsalot: use the script pasuspender to tell the PulseAudio daemon to let Audacity access the soundcard directly. | 05:44 |
| jmichaelx | what i would like to find, is a good express-card wireless adaptor that works outof the box | 05:45 |
| cellofellow | peepsalot: in a terminal run `pasuspender -- audacity`` | 05:45 |
| Blaqlight | dasickis: some of use consider that an asset, as opposed to one look deal with it attitude. | 05:45 |
| peepsalot | cellofellow, ah ok thanks. didn't realize it was already installed | 05:45 |
| === stonewon is now known as smokewon | ||
| dasickis | Blaqlight: no definitely it's an asset if you know what Linux is about but for people coming in, it's very overwhelming | 05:46 |
| SamSamSam | which one of these would I need to install to get xvid codec onto hardy? http://ftp.debian-unofficial.org/debian/pool/main/x/xvidcore/ | 05:47 |
| cellofellow | peepsalot: http://paste.ubuntu.com/31159/ | 05:47 |

| cypha | or is it stand-alone | 05:55 |
| bazhang | !awn | cypha read here | 05:55 |
| ubottu | cypha read here: Avant Window Navigator is a dock-like navigation bar for the Linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ Awn-Manager can be found the Gutsy !backports repository and in Universe in Hardy | 05:55 |
| davitosan | kushalsejwal: i think thats a temp file, the one you are currently using | 05:55 |
| newbe1 | blaqlight xubuntu | 05:55 |
| newbe1 | bazhang what | 05:56 |
| cellofellow | cypha: there's two, Avant-Window-Navigator (AWN) and Cairo-Dock, and don't use the ones in the repose they're way old. And yes they use compositing so you need at least xcompmgr or compiz. | 05:56 |
| bazhang | newbe1, when you login change the session | 05:56 |
| newbe1 | ok | 05:56 |
| cypha | oh, i was trying to avoid compiz...causes too many random problems! | 05:56 |
| kushalsejwal | davitosan: yes you are right because I even dont see that file when I unhide the hidden files | 05:56 |
| Rat409 | cypha: might google sim-dock also | 05:56 |
| cypha | does that require compiz? | 05:57 |
| kushalsejwal | davitosan: no need to worry about that temp file?? isnt it ? | 05:57 |
| Rat409 | cypha: not sure sorry | 05:57 |

| newbe1 | guess | 06:00 |
| Blaqlight | cypha: awn does not require compiz | 06:00 |
| cypha | no? | 06:00 |
| Blaqlight | awn is standalone | 06:00 |
| bazhang | http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist check here newbe1 | 06:00 |
| cellofellow | cypha: it does require a compositing desktop environment, which compiz provides but isn't the only provider. | 06:01 |
| cypha | cool, thanks blaqlight | 06:01 |
| cypha | blaqlight, i am not running and window manager, just the default gnome that comes with ubuntu | 06:01 |
| cellofellow | cypha: without a composited environment it'll just be invisible. | 06:01 |
| newbe1 | thanks bazhang | 06:01 |
| cellofellow | cypha: if you want AWN but not Compiz, try xcompmgr. | 06:02 |

| bazhang | vozniakBR, this is normal? what is the problem then | 06:07 |
| cellofellow | zelrikriando: yeah, but flash and compiz don't like eachother. There's something to do with disabling ARGB (transparency) visuals that helps. | 06:07 |
| santiago | at synaptic package manager what do i do? | 06:07 |
| bazhang | santiago, search for flash | 06:08 |

| Mr_Giraffe | oh, just that i'm looking for a media player that plays chiptunes (mod, sid, xm, it, etc) and such. what media player should i use? | 06:28 |
| cellofellow | ManualOverDozer8: wait, not quite you need to do apt-get install blahblah | 06:28 |
| tlove | Alright i need to make a script button for the following: "#!/bin/sh SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz --replace" and im just lost on how to do that. | 06:28 |
| zelrikriando | KevinOO, and you got the extras packages? | 06:28 |
| MooCows | How do you setup things to autorun when you login , such as on windows under "startup" in the start menu | 06:28 |
| dee | ahh mod files | 06:28 |
| Agent_bob | does anyone here know where "mkinitramfs" gets it's information of what device node to create as "/dev/root" ??? i have rebuilt my initramfs image five times now each time trying to change something that might help "fstab, /dev/root /dev/.static/dev/root /etc/mkinitramfs/initramfs.conf /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/*" nothing seems to help. | 06:28 |
| * dee reminises | 06:28 | |
| dee | :) | 06:28 |
| trashguy | Anyone compile wine 1.1.0 ? | 06:29 |
| zelrikriando | KevinOO, youtube doesnt ask you to install anything? | 06:29 |
| cellofellow | tlove: save the script somewhere, and make a custom app launcher on the panel that runs that file. | 06:29 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | cello ok | 06:29 |

| tlove | cellofellow: alright thanks. | 06:29 |
| kernco | Ok, I fixed the login window resolution problem by editing xorg.conf | 06:30 |
| bj_ | hey? | 06:30 |
| bj_ | what happened | 06:30 |
| dee | Is it possible to resize an image file created with DD, while maintaining the boot sector and partition table??? | 06:30 |
| Agent_bob | it's really anoying to have to setup a device node in the middle of the boot process every boot up. | 06:30 |
| cellofellow | tlove: oh, and make it executable. chmod +x foo/boar | 06:30 |
| KevinOO | zelrikriando, it did at first, and i installed gnash, but it wasnt working so i disabled it, and tried to download flash from adobe | 06:30 |
| bob3213243_ | Okay, I'm dual booting Vista/Ubuntu (Vista was first install) and Now my Vista is unable to boot and has to be reinstalled. I want to install xp but my issue is that I can't lose anything on my Ubuntu side of things. Is there a way to copy an entire ubuntu install and reload it after I format the hard drive. Any ideas? | 06:30 |
| cellofellow | boar, haha, meant bar | 06:30 |
| plouffe | I don't even get the Ubuntu startup sound | 06:30 |
| zelrikriando | Mr_Giraffe, I am sorry, I dont know, did you try searching with google? | 06:30 |
| cellofellow | bob3213243: you could use dd to image your partitions onto an external hard drive | 06:31 |
| dblick | okay. i realize a problem with my solution... so, i want to set up mysql with TCP/IP support and SSL. is there a good faq for this? (haven't found one) | 06:31 |

| bob3213243 | cellofellow okay, I'm really new to this so if you could explain a little more it would really help. | 06:32 |
| Rat409 | whoops same link | 06:32 |
| LSD|Ninja | bj_: I was hooping to avoid that, heh. It's completely unacceptable in a distro like ubuntu to have to hand edit xorg.conf for something like this. | 06:32 |
| dee | thanks, cellofellow | 06:32 |
| dee | but, my image contains only 90MB data | 06:32 |
| dee | but is the size of the drive of course | 06:33 |
| dee | I want to shrink it (remove the free space) | 06:33 |
| dee | and keep the boot sector in tact | 06:33 |
| cellofellow | dee: lossless compression like gzip, bzip2, or lzma should see that all that empty space is redundant and compress it out. | 06:33 |
| cellofellow | dee: I've been meaning to try that, tell me how it works out. | 06:33 |
| dee | yes sir cellofellow | 06:33 |
| dee | you are correct | 06:34 |
| zelrikriando | KevinOO, try sudo apt-get remove --purge gnash .... then sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras libflashsupport | 06:34 |
| dee | but I aim to use these images ultimately for pxe booting workstations | 06:34 |
| dee | so shrinking them with gzip don't help me | 06:34 |
| dee | :) | 06:34 |
| Mr_Giraffe | hmm | 06:34 |
| bob3213243_ | Okay, I'm dual booting Vista/Ubuntu (Vista was first install) and Now my Vista is unable to boot and has to be reinstalled. I want to install xp but my issue is that I can't lose anything on my Ubuntu side of things. Is there a way to copy an entire ubuntu install and reload it after I format the hard drive. Any ideas? | 06:34 |
| dee | (not enough ram in the terminals for all the empty space) | 06:34 |
| cellofellow | dee: I think that syslinux can uncompress bzip2 and gzip images. | 06:34 |
| santiago | zelrikriando, new question :D | 06:34 |
| Mr_Giraffe | well then zelrikriando, i tried exaile and it's in theory supposed to work with gstreamer, right? | 06:34 |
| zelrikriando | santiago, hmm ? | 06:34 |
| Mr_Giraffe | well i have gstreamer's good, bad, and ugly plugins installed | 06:34 |
| cellofellow | dee: but, that's kernel images these are filesystem images, right? | 06:34 |
| Mr_Giraffe | which cover chiptune support | 06:34 |
| zelrikriando | Mr_Giraffe, I dont know :) | 06:35 |
| Mr_Giraffe | but it's not opening the files :o | 06:35 |
| Mr_Giraffe | oh, what | 06:35 |
| santiago | zelrikriando, how do i get other gnome themes and then how do i change them? | 06:35 |
| dee | yes whole drive filesystem | 06:35 |
| Mr_Giraffe | well does anyone? | 06:35 |
| Rat409 | !grub | bob3213243_ | 06:35 |
| ubottu | bob3213243_: 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 | 06:35 |
| FloodBot1 | Mr_Giraffe: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:35 |
| dee | yes whole rive filesystem. I have a pxe boot system setup already with tftpd. syslinux creates ramdisk and loads image file into it | 06:35 |
| cellofellow | dee: I'm not sure what you're trying to do with it. PXE is something I haven't messed with but I know the basics of how it works. | 06:35 |
| x_Emma_x | ndergroundsoundz.net | 06:35 |
| dee | I boot thinstation linux to some clients already | 06:35 |
| dblick | i'm a little surprised that the available documentation on using mysql with tcp/ip and ssl looks so thin | 06:35 |
| zelrikriando | santiago, I suggest you to watch this : http://fr.youtube.com/watch?v=jmA0VMd0w1E | 06:36 |
| altair | I'm in the process of installing ubuntu from the livecd... when I put it in and selected the install option it goes to a colorful screen with 4 bands of mixed colors which slowly contract.... then top contracting. Is this meant to happen or is there a problem? | 06:36 |
| bob3213243 | Rat406 I know what grub is I need a solution to the loss of grub on the install. | 06:36 |
| KevinOO | zelrikriando, thanks that worked :) | 06:36 |
| santiago | zelrikriando, ok watching | 06:36 |
| zelrikriando | santiago, that might help , you can still ask questions after (if I am not in bed :p ) | 06:36 |
| cellofellow | altair: what video card do you have? sounds like the isolinux bootloader is not happy with it. | 06:36 |
| dee | PXE is awesome, cellofellow... when you got a pile of IBM terminals like me hehehe :) | 06:37 |
| zelrikriando | KevinOO, glad it worked...wasnt so sure it would do it :) | 06:37 |
| Relaed | 1 | 06:37 |
| dee | I've been running thinstation on them for a good while | 06:37 |
| cellofellow | dee: so, you have the PXE NIC doing everything? No NFS or something like that happening? | 06:37 |
| dee | but I been trying to build my own image on a hard drive | 06:37 |
| * zelrikriando will get some tea | 06:37 | |
| altair | cellowfellow: I don't honestly know what video card I have... what could I do to bypass this? The livecd loaded just fine and went ok until I selected install | 06:37 |
| dee | and dd it and boot that by pxe | 06:38 |
| dee | hehehe | 06:38 |
| cellofellow | hmmm | 06:38 |
| dee | no, the PXE nics download syslinux, create a ramdisk | 06:38 |
| dee | and then download the real file | 06:38 |
| dee | because the PXE spec only allows for 512KB technically :) | 06:38 |
| dee | that's why syslinux hehe | 06:38 |
| mhz128 | hello world | 06:39 |
| Rat409 | bob3213243: live-cd>chroot>run grub>root (hdx,y)>setup (hdx) or setup (hdx,y) for root part. >quit | 06:39 |
| altair | cellofellow: I know in backtrack I have to run xconf first... is there an equivilent I can run here? | 06:39 |
| mhz128 | Does an application similar to "Lime Wire" exist for Ubuntu? P2P........? | 06:39 |
| bob3213243_ | Okay, I'm dual booting Vista/Ubuntu (Vista was first install) and Now my Vista is unable to boot and has to be reinstalled. I want to install xp but my issue is that I can't lose anything on my Ubuntu side of things. Is there a way to copy an entire ubuntu install and reload it after I format the hard drive. Any ideas? I want to increase the size of the Ubuntu partition anyway I guess I need to "dd" it but i have no idea wha | 06:39 |
| bob3213243_ | t that means and I am not comfortable doing this without a little idea of what I am to expect and what to do when format the hard drive. | 06:39 |
| dee | don't reinstall vista, bob | 06:39 |
| cellofellow | dee: it downloads syslinux, which then grabs the kernel image and initramfs, right? That then can mount a remote NFS read only for the root. I think that's how it's supposed to work. | 06:39 |
| dee | yep | 06:39 |
| sisto | nice video zelrikriando, nice music | 06:40 |
| nickrud | bob3213243 the best way to handle that is to backup the data in your home, and use !clone during a reinstall | 06:40 |
| nickrud | !clone | bob3213243 | 06:40 |
| ubottu | bob3213243: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 06:40 |
| dee | bob, use your windows vista cd | 06:40 |
| dee | and urn the startup repair option | 06:40 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | cello: what is the difference between hardy and hardy-staging at Medibuntu.org ? | 06:40 |
| cellofellow | bob3213243: you can install Windows in your existing Windows partition. It'll overwrite the GRUB in your MBR but you can fix that with the Ubuntu CD. | 06:40 |
| dee | might have to run it 3 times to succeed | 06:40 |
| dee | but that will fix yoru vista | 06:40 |
| zelrikriando | sisto, thanks | 06:40 |
| dee | then these guys can help you get your linux back | 06:40 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | moreso which one i need ? | 06:40 |
| dee | and make you a boot loader selection :) | 06:40 |
| rand0m- | i think i made a dumb mistake, when installing ubuntu on a laptop (dual-boot with xp) and when prompted to choose the partition size, i chose 45% of my drive for linux, and left 45% for windows - is there as easy a way to resize that as there was to set it ? (ie: slider-bar to define partition size )? | 06:41 |
| cellofellow | ManualOverDozer8: No idea what hardy_staging is, but sounds like experimental packages I just use hardy. | 06:41 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | ok | 06:41 |
| bob3213243 | cellofellow but I need to increase the ubuntu partition anyway. | 06:41 |
| cellofellow | well, I got to go to bed now. Nice talking everybody. | 06:41 |
| cellofellow | bob3213243: backup your data and just do a flat out reinstall, windows first then ubuntu | 06:42 |
| mikere | bob3213243: what dee is saying is good - but still backup any important data and do what nickrud says in case of catastrophe. | 06:42 |
| TeslaTony | mhz128: Yes. LimeWire has a Linux version, but I haven't had much luck installing it. Ktorrent, Azureus, and RTorrent are torrent handlers...not the same as LimeWire, but pretty good | 06:42 |
| dee | good night cellofellow | 06:42 |
| itai-michaelson | anybody has experience with setting thin clients on ubuntu | 06:42 |
| dee | thanks for the ear | 06:42 |
| dee | doh missed 'im :) | 06:42 |
| === DBO is now known as semievolvedsimia | ||

| Borg^Queen | any ideas how to get the proper video driver to work? | 06:44 |
| nickrud | rand0m- install gparted , it uses a similar interface to the install for partion sizing | 06:44 |
| LSD|Ninja | Borg^Queen: what video card is in it? | 06:44 |
| zelrikriando | hi nickrud | 06:44 |
| Borg^Queen | ati rage mobility using the r128 | 06:44 |

| LSD|Ninja | mhz128: FrostWire might be available somewhere, it's a fork of LimeWire | 06:45 |
| itai-michaelson | mikere, i mean clients with no hard drive ( i could be using the wrong wording), we have an office that needs 4 computers but has no space for them, just has space for monitors and keybords | 06:45 |
| zelrikriando | nickrud, I just made some tea...it's almost 1am | 06:45 |
| tech0007 | need your opinion, which is the best antivirus that i can install in hardy? i have windows PCs i want to scan for virii...thanks | 06:45 |
| Sidd | Anyone here with a Compaq/HP Laptop (Presarios or DV6000, etc) with Suspension and Hibernation that doesn't work? I've found a fix.. on the ubuntu forums I've posted it in the hardware/laptop section | 06:46 |
| nickrud | zelrikriando I'm checking mail prior to bed | 06:46 |
| Borg^Queen | tech0007: I do that a lot | 06:46 |
| LSD|Ninja | Borg^Queen: Tried manually setting the r128 driver in displayconfig-gtk or does it flat-out not want to work? | 06:46 |
| mhz128 | LSDNinja: cool, thanks bra | 06:46 |
| Borg^Queen | avast, clamav, | 06:46 |
| nickrud | Sidd what nick did you put it under, so I can refer people? | 06:46 |
| tech0007 | Borg^Queen: so which one do u think is better? | 06:46 |
| Sidd | nickrud: SidStudios | 06:46 |
| Borg^Queen | LSD|Ninja: flat out doesn't want to work... | 06:46 |
| rand0m- | nickrud, do i need to be logged in as root to resize partition? | 06:46 |
| mikere | itai-michaelson: ah. There's a server system I've used in the past. One server, up to 20 or so clients. Damned if I can remember the name to night though. | 06:47 |
| Borg^Queen | tech0007: both have their different strengths | 06:47 |
| zelrikriando | santiago, you ok ? | 06:47 |
| nickrud | rand0m- run gksu gparted (and yes, you must use admin privs) | 06:47 |
| mikere | itai-michaelson: ah, got it - ltsp - linux terminal server project. | 06:47 |
| Borg^Queen | clamav has caught things avast has missed and Vice versa | 06:47 |
| itai-michaelson | mikere, ltsp . great , let me google it | 06:47 |
| tech0007 | Borg^Queen: so u both have installed in one ubuntu machine? | 06:47 |
| aaltan | helloo! can anyone help me with a little database problem? prob the wrong place to ask but i use ubuntu.. what the hey.... | 06:47 |
| rand0m- | nickrud, im sorta noob.. not sure what u mean by "run gksu gparted" | 06:47 |
| mikere | itai-michaelson: but generally have only used it to allow use of old hardware including a box for client. | 06:48 |
| Borg^Queen | tech0007: On my primary machine Ark Linux | 06:48 |
| Borg^Queen | but I have used it on kubuntu | 06:48 |
| Borg^Queen | use them in concert | 06:48 |
| aaltan | anyone? | 06:48 |
| itai-michaelson | mikere, i need it because there is no space for harddrive | 06:48 |
| nickrud | rand0m- applications->accessories->terminal, you would type gksu gparted there, it will ask for your password and won't echo any chars, type blindly :) | 06:48 |
| tech0007 | Borg^Queen: ok tnx, appreciate that | 06:48 |
| TeslaTony | marmelaati: Nice quit message | 06:48 |
| mikere | itai-michaelson: you could just join #ltsp here although there's not always someone awake there this time of night. | 06:48 |
| Borg^Queen | tech0007: aye lad, good luck | 06:48 |
| Borg^Queen | LSD|Ninja: I have tried to edit it in nano with no success | 06:49 |
| itai-michaelson | mikere, thanks (its day time here,shanghai) | 06:49 |
| Borg^Queen | thought it might be a res problem, no luck, it wasn't | 06:49 |
| mikere | itai-michaelson: if jammcq or similar knowledge level is around they'll know where to point you. | 06:49 |
| yaris123456789 | why is it that when i go to the page, and look at source, i can see the forms. however doing mech-dump on that page, will detect no form fields....what is going on ? | 06:49 |
| Agent_bob | nobody knows ;/ | 06:50 |
| Borg^Queen | ? | 06:50 |
| BeepII | Hey I got a question... | 06:50 |
| itai-michaelson | mikere, thank you, we are talking GUI here right? | 06:50 |
| BeepII | When I shut down, my computer sometimes gives me some messages about a connection I think...\ | 06:51 |
| BeepII | anyway, it just stops on a terminal-like screen and won't shut down | 06:51 |
| BeepII | It's not terminal though | 06:51 |
| rand0m- | nickrud, i must be doing something wrong, as it won't let me resize anything it seems. | 06:51 |
| BeepII | ... I mean, when I push a button, it'll come up w/ symbols | 06:51 |
| Borg^Queen | BeepII: do you have any open apps? | 06:51 |
| Borg^Queen | Like a video app? | 06:51 |
| BeepII | No... | 06:51 |
| BeepII | Pidgin maybe | 06:52 |
| Borg^Queen | try shutting down all the apps manually before shutting down | 06:52 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, when we say that we mean open applications before you shut down...do you have any? | 06:52 |
| nickrud | rand0m- if I remember correctly, you can't move the beginning of the ext3 partition, or the ntfs partition. You can only stretch them | 06:52 |
| BeepII | I know | 06:52 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, just making sure ;) | 06:52 |
| BeepII | xD thanks | 06:52 |
| rand0m- | nickrud, basically i want to shrink my ext3 drive so i have more room on ntfs, since i can access the ntfs while running linux but not the other way around | 06:52 |
| Borg^Queen | Alan_M: thanks | 06:52 |
| rand0m- | ... not as easily anyways | 06:53 |
| Rolcol | Are there any major problems to using 64 bit Ubuntu rather than 32 bit? | 06:53 |
| BeepII | Ok, second question. Does Ubuntu have anything similar to the task manager in windows | 06:53 |
| BeepII | where I can track CPU & RAM usage? | 06:53 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, yup | 06:53 |
| Borg^Queen | top | 06:53 |
| BeepII | and what's using how much | 06:53 |
| BeepII | ALan_M What is it? | 06:53 |
| nickrud | rand0m- sure you can access both, use fs-driver.org in windows. It allows access to the ext3 partition | 06:53 |
| BeepII | :) | 06:53 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, top or system monitor :) | 06:53 |
| tech0007 | BeepII: system monitor | 06:53 |
| BeepII | how do I access that? | 06:53 |
| Rolcol | BeepII: System > Administration > System Monitor | 06:54 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, its under system admini....blah yeah :) | 06:54 |
| rand0m- | nickrud, still - i'd rather have all my media on one partition, and the vast majority is already on ntfs.. so id rather just like like 10gb or 15gb for the linux partition | 06:54 |
| BeepII | ooh. | 06:54 |
| Alan_M | heh, i got a little lag here :) | 06:54 |
| rand0m- | and have the rest ntfs | 06:54 |
| BeepII | ok, Thanks guys | 06:54 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, sure thing buddy :) | 06:54 |
| Borg^Queen | ok I can't find any info on this video problem | 06:54 |
| BeepII | Ok, on the system monitor, it has a memory & swap history | 06:55 |
| BeepII | .. what's swap mean? | 06:55 |
| nitrus^ | i just upgraded to hardy from dapper and my tulip card keeps giving me SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument when i do a simple ifconfig eth1 up | 06:55 |
| nitrus^ | anyone know what would cause that? | 06:55 |
| Alan_M | BeepII, that means an extra space of your hard drive if your ubuntu memory gets full. | 06:55 |
| nickrud | !staff | 06:55 |
| ubottu | Hey nalioth, jenda, rob, SportChick, seanw, Dave2, Christel, tomaw, Gary or PriceChild, I could use a bit of your time :) | 06:55 |
| zelrikriando | grrr | 06:55 |
| Borg^Queen | oh this is fun | 06:55 |
| Alan_M | whoa | 06:55 |
| Rolcol | BeepII: swap is like windows' pagefil.sys (i may be wrong on the name). Like alan_m said, it's like RAM on your hard drive. It's slower than actual ram though. | 06:55 |
| seanp2k2 | what is happening | 06:55 |

| BeepII | oooh ok. | 06:56 |
| TeslaTony | Hrm...my guess is DOS attack | 06:56 |
| Alan_M | just chill everyone, its probably gonna be over soon :) | 06:56 |
| BeepII | also, is there a way to see what's using up all my CPU power? | 06:56 |
| Rolcol | can we set the channel to registered nicks only? | 06:56 |

| TeslaTony | BeepII: Double-click the system monitor. There's a task manager in there that shows processes and usage | 06:57 |
| Rolcol | It might continue after -R | 06:57 |
| Borg^Queen | Alan_M: I think I suffered a work related injure during that. I'm suing! | 06:58 |
| Alan_M | Rolcol, we will deal with it then, for now just go back to what you were doing before the guy with too much time on his hands got in :) | 06:58 |

| rand0m- | gonna be impossible to get help now | 06:58 |
| nitrus^ | ok lets try again. i just upgraded to hardy from dapper drake and i have a tulip card that was initially set as eth2. i edited the udev rules and now it's on eth1, which is what i want. but anytime i do ifconfig eth1 up it gives me an invalid argument error "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Invalid argument" anyone have any ideas? i really need to get this fixed | 06:59 |
| rand0m- | am i able to resize my 35gb ext3 partition down to 15gb to free up space on the ntfs partition ? | 06:59 |
| nitrus^ | it was doing the same even when it was on eth2 | 07:00 |
| Borg^Queen | rand0m-: parted, with either gparted and qtparted as a gui | 07:00 |
| Borg^Queen | word of warning, USE windows to expand the ntfs | 07:00 |
| Rolcol | Borg^Queen: I learned that the hard way | 07:00 |
| Rolcol | many hours lost | 07:00 |
| hotmonkeyluv | rand0m-: I'd suggest using partitionmagic, it's an ISO from norton, really nice utility! | 07:00 |
| Borg^Queen | Rolcol: I've seen it, never used windows | 07:01 |
| Rolcol | I imaged the external hard drive before I messed with it though. | 07:01 |
| Borg^Queen | only repair them | 07:01 |
| nickrud | rand0m- just remember, you can't move the beginning of the ext3 partition | 07:01 |
| Borg^Queen | well retrieve the data anyway | 07:01 |
| Borg^Queen | hotmonkeyluv: aye, nice choice | 07:01 |

| nitrus^ | anyone else have an issue with the tulip driver? | 07:10 |
| murlidhar | Rolcol: all core2duo's are 64bit | 07:10 |
| zelrikriando | xTheGoat121x, try reinstalling the compiz packages | 07:10 |
| Rolcol | I know that now. I'm an idiot, murlidhar | 07:11 |
| nickrud | xTheGoat121x zelrikriando's idea has merit | 07:11 |

| nickrud | chalcedony are you using gnome? | 07:11 |
| murlidhar | Rolcol: while core (1) duo is not | 07:11 |
| chalcedony | Rolcol 64 bits is faster, there is less software for 64 bits and flash is a pain | 07:11 |

| zelrikriando | xTheGoat121x, tell me how it goes | 07:12 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | rolcol: i have seen some say, some things work no longer after upgrade. i myself, would do a complete fresh install | 07:12 |
| TeslaTony | Rolcol: I do clean installs, but I also happen to be a little weird. Having said that, sometimes bugs crop up with updates | 07:13 |
| chalcedony | nickrud yes | 07:13 |
| nickrud | chalcedony in a terminal, ps -A | grep NetworkManger (caps matter) do you get back a line saying NetworkManager ? | 07:13 |
| xTheGoat121x | zelrikriando, workin on it even as we speak. | 07:13 |
| _2 | TeslaTony my boot issues came with a security update http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d80b31d8 | 07:14 |
| nickrud | chalcedony that was ps -A | NetworkManager (typo) | 07:14 |
| cypha | do you need compiz for screenlets? | 07:14 |
| chalcedony | the history is a bit long but ive replaced and rebooted router, wires, switch and i'm about to make comcast replace the modem. since i got the router last night, it won't connect to the web. nor will my husband's computer | 07:14 |

| cypha | does Beryl and GTK themes install with aero?? | 07:16 |
| chalcedony | nickrud it's grepping | 07:17 |
| rand0m- | murlidhar: shareware is fully functional or what ? | 07:17 |
| murlidhar | rand0m-: we have gparted which can do most of the works that partition magic can do | 07:17 |
| zelrikriando | cypha, what do you mean? | 07:17 |
| rand0m- | oh | 07:17 |

| rand0m- | murlidhar: i was just in here and was told to resize ntfs drive while in windows | 07:17 |
| _2 | random- if you are trying to resize a windarz partition boot windows set pagefile off and defrag. then resize it. | 07:17 |
| cypha | there you go zelrikriando | 07:17 |
| chalcedony | er nickrud Process ID list syntax error | 07:18 |
| itai-michaelson | cypha yes | 07:18 |
| nickrud | chalcedony helps if I give correct comands. It's late here: ps -A | grep NetworkManager <--- this one is correct | 07:18 |
| _2 | random- the "resizing" can be done from gparted | 07:18 |
| cypha | cool...have you done that itai-michaelson ? | 07:18 |
| neil_d | with sound juicer, under the 'Output format' MP3 isn't listed, but when I 'edit profiles' MP3 is listed and active, how do I set the output format to MP3 ? | 07:18 |
| chalcedony | nickrud okies :) | 07:18 |
| murlidhar | rand0m-: there are several application in windows that can resize ntfs partitions | 07:18 |
| itai-michaelson | cypha no... | 07:18 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | partition magic works real nice for windows, and can create linux partitions as well | 07:18 |
| zelrikriando | cypha, I think by 'beryl' they meant emerald theme | 07:18 |
| _2 | random- but you need to run windows and defrag with pagefile turned off | 07:18 |
| itai-michaelson | cypha but you need a good graphic card for the 3d efects | 07:18 |
| cypha | not sure what you mean? | 07:18 |
| itai-michaelson | cypha, what version of ubuntu are you running? | 07:19 |
| zelrikriando | cypha, the window decorator... you need to use emerald I think | 07:19 |
| cypha | 8.04 | 07:19 |
| chalcedony | nickrud 4942? 00:00:00 NetworkManager and 4956? 00:00:00 NetworkManagerD | 07:19 |
| murlidhar | rand0m-: wait i will u the link | 07:19 |
| cypha | not sure what a window decorator is | 07:19 |
| rand0m- | _2: not sure waht you mean by "pagefile turned off " | 07:19 |
| nickrud | chalcedony ok, good so far. Now, do you have the network control icon in your systray? | 07:20 |
| itai-michaelson | cypha, as far as i know "beryl" is not used in 8.04. they use something called "compiz fusion" | 07:20 |
| zelrikriando | cypha, in the compiz options...there is a 'window decorator' tab | 07:20 |
| cypha | yeah, i used to have compiz | 07:20 |

| === Ademan_ is now known as Ademan | ||

| nickrud | chalcedony you can hit alt-f2 and run nm-applet --sm-disable to get one. | 07:21 |
| itai-michaelson | cypha, to change the appearence of compiz you have two option one is "metacity" (the default option" and one is "emarald" (which you nee dto enable" | 07:21 |
| zelrikriando | cypha, 'beryl' is obsolete...and named like this in gnome-look for emerald type of theme | 07:21 |

| cypha | itai-michaelson, how do you enable emerald? | 07:22 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | _2 i am very experienced in windows, unlike linux, in which i am not so familiar. besides, that is for #windows | 07:22 |
| cypha | ok itai, i won't follow it then | 07:22 |
| nickrud | chalcedony a little computer screen. if you run alt-f2 nm-applet --sm-disable, you should get one. If you have two, well, we'll fix it :) | 07:22 |

| xTheGoat121x | zelrikriando, there's an understatement. | 07:31 |
| nickrud | chalcedony no, I'm waiting to see if you have the network control applet. You never said one way or the other | 07:31 |
| nickrud | chalcedony but I'm not keeping an eye on the scroll, you need to use my nick | 07:31 |
| xTheGoat121x | zelrikriando, me either. | 07:32 |
| zelrikriando | xTheGoat121x, paste your pastebin again to everyone, I cannot help you much more than that | 07:32 |

| rand0m- | chalcedony: add $nick to your notify list | 07:34 |
| nickrud | chalcedony good. Now, unplug the network cable from the computer. We're going to see what the system does when you plug it back in. After you unplug it, type tail -f /var/log/syslog in a terminal, then plug it back in. You'll get a lot of messages, wait about 15 seconds then put the output on paste.ubuntu.com | 07:34 |

| Smegzor | Do I need the avahi daemon? Will my network/internet work without it? | 07:34 |
| xTheGoat121x | Er0x, seriously? | 07:34 |
| Er0x | xTheGoat121x: ya | 07:34 |
| LSD|Ninja | nerketur: the Intel display drivers are open source so as long as you're up to date with xorg you're fine | 07:34 |
| nickrud | chalcedony at least, you'd better get a bunch of output ;) | 07:34 |
| rand0m- | murlidhar: not sure if you got my last response. the download link for the 2nd program was dead | 07:35 |
| === robert__ is now known as Guest540 | ||
| chalcedony | nickrud ok | 07:35 |
| zelrikriando | xTheGoat121x, if you get to solve it at some point let me know | 07:35 |
| Er0x | xTheGoat121x: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_compiz-fusion, thats all u need | 07:35 |
| Guest540 | the linux kernel upgrade can't boot. I have to use *.19* to get on. where do i begin to diagnose the problem? | 07:35 |
| murlidhar | rand0m-: then probably u have to download from the first link | 07:35 |
| zelrikriando | Er0x, isnt it a gentoo page? | 07:35 |
| Er0x | zelrikriando: do u see any diff in configs? is linux man | 07:36 |
| wbmj | Smegzor: you should have network connection without the avahi-daemon....however Gnome uses it to run some internal services | 07:36 |
| tovella1 | xTheGoat121x: your output (pastebin) looks like the nvidia driver is not installed (or not working). | 07:36 |
| zelrikriando | Er0x, yeah...but but but...ok | 07:36 |
| murlidhar | rand0m-: it is a shareware but i guess should care of ur needs | 07:36 |
| Er0x | tovella1: thats becouse xorg no aigl xgl configed | 07:36 |
| zelrikriando | tovella1, he doesnt have nvidia but AiT | 07:36 |
| Adondai | can anyone suggest a more windows, or vista like file manager for gnome? dont like the dedault for ubuntu too much | 07:36 |
| zelrikriando | tovella1, ATI even | 07:36 |
| xTheGoat121x | tovella1, what zelrikriando said. | 07:36 |
| Er0x | with ATi ive played like 4h xD | 07:36 |
| Smegzor | wbmj: hmm.. well my network keeps turning to custard and going no faster than 5k/sec for hours on end. The only likely cause I can find is Avahi. | 07:36 |
| rand0m- | murlidhar: im just telling you the link you provided me had no download .. showed the page offering download but the download link gave 404 error.. in process of downloading the first program you recommended. no harm, no foul | 07:37 |

| zelrikriando | Er0x, seems like ATI is still not working out of the box :) | 07:37 |
| tovella1 | xTheGoat121x: which ATI card? | 07:37 |
| Er0x | xTheGoat121x: after u make it to get only missing mipmaps textures error and more 2 about screen let me knot | 07:37 |

| Er0x | zelrikriando: ya | 07:38 |
| sysdoc | Adondai, Thunar | 07:38 |
| Er0x | zelrikriando: mimaps are broken on ATi | 07:38 |
| xTheGoat121x | tovella1, ummm... good question, not sure. It's a mobile radeon, I know that much. | 07:38 |
| rand0m- | murlidhar: actually... download link for both programs failed | 07:39 |
| nickrud | chalcedony heh. can you use a usb stick to move the data to the machine you're on? Or, what you're looking for are the dhcp messages, talking about offers, getting ip addresses, or not getting an offer and sleeping (that means no offer of connection from router) | 07:39 |
| tovella1 | xTheGoat121x: which model of notebook? | 07:39 |
| zelrikriando | xTheGoat121x, I am not sure but I think if you type something like : lspci | grep ATI it will tell you what ATI it is | 07:39 |
| Adondai | sysdoc, thanks | 07:39 |
| xTheGoat121x | tovella1, it's a Gateway ML3109 | 07:40 |
| Adondai | what advantages do you have by installing ubuntu in its own partition rather then through wubu? | 07:40 |
| chalcedny | nickrud: i take it back, it WORKS http://paste.ubuntu.com/31186/ | 07:40 |
| zelrikriando | Ademan, Wubi is more parasitic I would say | 07:40 |
| tovella1 | xTheGoat121x: ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M ? | 07:41 |
| xTheGoat121x | Sounds right. :) | 07:41 |
| nickrud | chalcedny ah, good. | 07:41 |
| zelrikriando | ok I should go to bed now | 07:43 |

| zelrikriando | bye all | 07:44 |
| mib_5idsbz | is the current ati driver ok wit suspend, 3d, compiz, no video tearing? | 07:44 |
| chalcedny | nickrud: is this ok or what do i need to do to other boxes and will it keep working? | 07:44 |
| koshari | anyone know he to use crontab? | 07:45 |
| chalcedny | robert-woes: try System > Administration > System Log | 07:45 |
| nickrud | chalcedny the key is to check for NetworkManager (ps -A | grep NetworkManager) and make sure the network applet is running (alt-f2 nm-applet --sm-disable) . Once those are running once, they should run each time you reboot, so you shouldn't have to check them more than once per machine | 07:46 |
| tovella1 | xTheGoat121x: can you send your xorg.conf to pastebin? | 07:46 |
| * nickrud is tired, cannot compose a single coherent sentence | 07:46 | |
| chalcedny | nickrud: awesome, i was planning to take the linksys back | 07:46 |
| xTheGoat121x | tovella1, sure, but hold on one second | 07:46 |
| robert-woes | chalcedny, thanks | 07:47 |
| nickrud | chalcedny if the NetworkManager isn't running, run sudo NetworkManager in a terminal | 07:47 |
| chalcedny | nickrud: ok :) | 07:48 |
| xTheGoat121x | I think I got it running... though I don't think it's using direct rendering. | 07:49 |

| R0b0t1 | But it will be where apt-get placed it? | 08:20 |
| mgolisch | R0b0t1: use apt-get source packagename this downlaods the packages source code to the current directory | 08:20 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: You download the source package, modify it, then build it, and that produces a deb, then you install that deb with dpkg | 08:20 |

| R0b0t1 | sauerbraten-numbers.dfsg | 08:28 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: What command did you use to get the source? | 08:28 |
| R0b0t1 | sudo apt-get source sauerbraten | 08:28 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: don't use sudo. All your stuff (in that source package) is owned by root right now | 08:28 |
| R0b0t1 | Oh, damn :D | 08:28 |

| hovo | i got booted off | 08:29 |
| R0b0t1 | Could you tell me the chown command? | 08:29 |
| Flannel | joobaby: PID is the second column in ps aux | 08:29 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: sudo chown -R username:username /path/to/source/dir | 08:29 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: be very careful with that, make sure you've got the right directory | 08:30 |
| mgolisch | hehe | 08:30 |
| blogi | whats a LDAP? | 08:30 |
| Flannel | !ldap | blogi | 08:30 |

| blogi | tnx | 08:30 |
| joobaby | thanks dudes | 08:31 |
| R0b0t1 | So, Flannel, I can compile it by doing 'cd dir; make install' | 08:32 |
| R0b0t1 | Like normal? | 08:32 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: the makefile provided will build the package as a deb, yes. | 08:33 |
| R0b0t1 | Ah | 08:33 |
| R0b0t1 | And then install the deb ;) | 08:33 |
| Flannel | R0b0t1: with dpkg or gdebi (or clicking on it), yeah | 08:34 |
| R0b0t1 | I'm all for clicking :D | 08:34 |

| Gemmie78 | Hello | 08:39 |
| NPerez | hi | 08:39 |
| Gemmie78 | Currently using firefox, when I click hyperlinks there are now arrows at the top and bottom of the dialog box | 08:40 |
| Gemmie78 | Beforehand, there were no arrows at the top and below. How do I get rid of these arrows | 08:40 |
| Gemmie78 | It's as if they appeared out of nowhere | 08:41 |
| PrEdaToR`X | just wanna ask general question, can one kind of softphone call another kind of softphone? | 08:41 |
| cypha | why do i always have to do "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" in the terminal window so that my Wireless works? (i have a broadcom) | 08:43 |
| === lauritza is now known as cvetic | ||
| jamus | how do i edit grub menu (i have too meny kernels there ) | 08:44 |
| Empty_ | cypha - put "ndiswrapper" in /etc/modules and that should stop | 08:44 |
| Flannel | jamus: Just remove the old kernels through your favorite package manager | 08:44 |
| cypha | where is ndiswrapper now? | 08:44 |
| Empty_ | jamus, it's in /boot/grub/menu.1st but you are better off uninstalling unused kernels | 08:45 |
| cypha | Empty_, where is ndiswrapper now? locate ndiswrapper gives like a 10000 results | 08:45 |
| raboof_ | ubuntu docs tend to mention things like 'choose System->Administration->Printing', but I use ion3, so I don't have the gnome panel | 08:45 |
| Empty_ | cypha, it's with the hundreds of other kernel modules you don't use- /etc/modules just causes that modprobe to happen at boot time | 08:45 |
| KintaRo | how can i set default gnome desktop? | 08:45 |
| raboof_ | is it always possible to start those applications from the commandline? How do I find out to which application such a menu corresponds? | 08:46 |
| Empty_ | cypha, `man modules` | 08:46 |
| cypha | i don't even have a modules folder in /etc | 08:46 |
| cypha | i do have an ndiswrapper folder though | 08:46 |
| raboof_ | /etc/modules should be a file | 08:46 |
| cypha | oh, it is | 08:47 |
| g3org3s | hello, i installed compiz ... then i removed it , but now , everytime i restart my computer i have to write : metacity --replace so i can get my 2 desktops and normal setting ... how can i program metacity on startup ? | 08:47 |

| Gemmie78 | Anyone have any answer for me question? | 08:47 |
| Gemmie78 | Basically arrows have appeared in the right click menu when before there were no arrows | 08:47 |
| Empty_ | cypha, that's a text file- `sudo nano /etc/modules` and add ndiswrapper on its own line | 08:47 |
| Gemmie78 | Now these arrows are greyed out, as the menu fully displays | 08:47 |
| Gemmie78 | But I don't understand how these arrows suddenly appear | 08:47 |
| raboof_ | can I start the printer administration application from the commandline? what's it called? | 08:48 |
| Gemmie78 | I don't recall selecting an option like that | 08:48 |
| Empty_ | raboof_: /usr/bin/system-config-printer | 08:49 |
| DistroJockey | raboof_, I believe it's system-config-printer | 08:49 |

| Gemmie78 | And I did ask my question clearly enough, basically when you rightclick a hyper link, arrows now appear on the dialog box | 09:03 |
| theunixgeek | !google | Viper111 | 09:03 |
| ubottu | Viper111: google is the helpers' friend; many newer users dont have the google-fu yet; For GNU/Linux: http://google.com/linux | 09:03 |
| Gemmie78 | Similar to the arrows you get in firefox in the favourites bar when there are too many favourite links for the screen | 09:04 |
| g3org3s | DistroJockey, yes i have 3 things : none ( selected ) , normal , and expert , now what ? | 09:04 |
| Gemmie78 | So the arrows allow you to basically scroll up and down | 09:04 |
| DistroJockey | Gemmie78, you could create another user and see if it does the same thing for that user | 09:04 |
| DistroJockey | g3org3s, None = turn it off | 09:04 |
| Gemmie78 | Yet the right link dialog box is not very large | 09:04 |
| SitUbuntuSit | Gemmie78, do you have any extensions installed | 09:04 |
| Gemmie78 | Hence why these arrows are greyed out | 09:04 |

| wols | ra21vi_: are you running debian or ubuntu? | 09:08 |
| DistroJockey | g3org3s, only suggestion is to reconfigure metacity using apt-get/aptitude, but that may be too harsh | 09:08 |
| LSD|Ninja | cr0w: you have to fiddle about with xorg.conf afaik | 09:08 |
| laughtear | XiXaQ: i tried to share that folder on local network to copy files from another notebook ubuntu. but permissions denied after installing file sharing.. | 09:08 |

| DistroJockey | g3org3s, tis ok, I'm looking into the correct command that will reconfigure metacity (but as I said, it may not be the best course to follow) | 09:13 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja not for me it's not. | 09:13 |
| artagnon | wols: The erros are returned by the post-install script | 09:13 |
| wols | ra21vi_: and "can someone help me" without specifics is simply, dumb | 09:13 |
| SitUbuntuSit | crow, you can extract the gdm theme, open the background in gimp and scale it, then repackage it | 09:14 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: ok, here is the problem scenario... | 09:14 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja that's how udev keeps permissions screwed up ;/ | 09:14 |
| g3org3s | DistroJockey, i appreciate the help :) alot , just tell me if you find anything | 09:14 |
| wols | artagnon: I told you what I need. until you can provide this: have a nice day and please don't bothre me anymore. thank you | 09:14 |
| cr0w | how I shape the xorg.conf? | 09:14 |
| artagnon | wols: too many files are missing for me to manually ar extract the dev files and put them in the right directories | 09:14 |
| LSD|Ninja | Agent_bob: no, the permissions are screwed because you fail in creating proper rules | 09:14 |
| laughtear | XiXaQ: okay, but i need you to explain what it is a little bit more (you know, filesharing, must be careful..) if you could. | 09:14 |
| pawan | what is wubi | 09:14 |
| XiXaQ | laughtear, ssh is the Secure Shell. It's used for remote logins, but can also be used to transfer files. The users will have to enter your username and password though, but that's ok if you want to share the files between your own users on your own computers. | 09:14 |

| cr0w | how i configure the xorg.conf ?! | 09:14 |
| artagnon | wols: configration file texmf.cnf not found and several /etc/texmf/language.d/00tex.cnf not found errors >> I thought you read that | 09:14 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | is #xchat on the ubuntu server? | 09:15 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja no. i didn't create any rules. so if that's the case the perms are screwed because of ubuntu default settings. | 09:15 |
| Starnestommy | spiel_mit_feuer: it's on this one | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | g3org3s, this may do it: sudo apt-get install --reinstall metacity | 09:15 |
| LSD|Ninja | SitUbuntuSit: It's not a problem with the theme, it's because gdm assumes a larger virtual res than the physical res. Only way around it is messing with xorg.conf afaik | 09:15 |
| HotGirl | hi can ne1 help me set up my router?/ lu | 09:15 |
| LSD|Ninja | Agent_bob: Then fix the rules | 09:15 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: I have a Ubuntu Hardy lastest updated system on Intel Core 2 Duo, with 1.23 GB Memory, and it is primarily used for my development work, using Gnome, X, and eclipse... as well as Internet surfing... Now the requirement is to install the jdk, ant and cruise control build system on it as per the project requirement | 09:15 |
| HotGirl | ill send u nekkid pix if u do | 09:15 |
| SitUbuntuSit | ah, misunderstood LSD|Ninja | 09:15 |
| XiXaQ | laughtear, it's encrypted, so it's very nice when you've connecting over an insecure connection. | 09:15 |
| Starnestommy | spiel_mit_feuer: technically it's on freenode but irc.ubuntu.com points to freenode | 09:15 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja easier to have static device nodes | 09:15 |
| rxdeath | i got everything black but that left most menu bar that is the file explorer, where or what is the control for that frame called? its not an input box (although the text acts like it) | 09:15 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: so I am configuring a chroot, since I don't want my system be messed with these experiments and people dont come out of chroot | 09:16 |
| laughtear | XiXag: ok, thank you very much. can you help me about another thing if i'd ask? | 09:16 |
| LSD|Ninja | Agent_bob: If you want that then slackware is over there --> | 09:16 |
| DistroJockey | g3org3s, if you want to pastebin the output before you say y/n I'll take a look | 09:16 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | so ill just be able to hit server, join channel, and type that in? | 09:16 |
| Starnestommy | spiel_mit_feuer: just type /join #xchat | 09:16 |
| cr0w | how i configure the xorg.conf ?! | 09:16 |
| rxdeath | and the list of names in ubuntu | 09:16 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | well i made it there | 09:17 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: and the progress till now is: chroot installation in progress, debootstrap is downloading packages | 09:17 |
| Starnestommy | spiel_mit_feuer: yes, I yhink so | 09:17 |
| Starnestommy | *think | 09:17 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja are you intimating that one does not have the right to configure a ubuntu box the way they want ? but before this goes any farther ot. i'll drop it. | 09:17 |
| ra21vi_ | cr0w: with any editor like vim or nano or even gedit | 09:17 |
| LinuxIST | ndiswrapper irq disable http://rafb.net/p/ByQagi98.html | 09:17 |
| LSD|Ninja | cr0w: I *think* you have to remove everything larger than your normal res from teh screen sections but having never bothered with it, I don't know | 09:17 |
| XiXaQ | laughtear, possibly. By the way, if you press tab when you're entering a nickname, then it'll be completed. | 09:17 |
| DistroJockey | cr0w, there is a command listed near the top of /etc/X11/xorg.conf that is a good place to start | 09:17 |
| laughtear | i also have some ntfs partitions on this pc, and thanks to ubuntu that it can mount them whenever i need. but i want those partitions mounted on desktop when i turn on my computer and start ubuntu automaticaly. how can i do it? | 09:17 |
| LSD|Ninja | Agent_bob: You can configure udev how you want. With udev rules. It's not Ubuntu's problem if you can't be bothered learning them. | 09:17 |

| wols | artagnon: not anymore | 09:18 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | xchat is dead though | 09:18 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: any comment on previous msg | 09:18 |
| wols | laughtear: put them in fstab and set the options to mount the by default on bootup | 09:18 |
| Agent_bob | cr0w the first listing of a rez on the line is the one xorg rties to use. put your default as first per line | 09:19 |
| wols | ra21vi_: yes. state a problem. I doN't see one | 09:19 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: problem still to come, download is in progress. | 09:19 |
| laughtear | wols: fstab? (i'm too new for that fstab thing buddy, but i can use the configuration editor if would help) | 09:19 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: i was just thinking, If i can use the jdk preinstalled in ubuntu or i will have to install one in chroot | 09:19 |
| wols | ra21vi_: untill you know how to state a specific problem: please don't talk to me anymore cause I don't care what you or your PC are doing right now. thank you. | 09:20 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: and i figured it out, i will have to install it | 09:20 |
| wols | theoretically possible to use the one in ubuntu btu it will be a bIG hassle | 09:20 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: why are you so rude | 09:20 |
| wols | ra21vi_: cause this is a support channel and not a chat channel goodbye | 09:20 |
| ra21vi_ | wols: and who knows what the specific problem statement means' | 09:20 |
| === crummygummy_ is now known as CrummyGummy | ||
| wols | ra21vi_: it means: I try to do X and when I do Y to accopmlish this I get error Z | 09:21 |

| ra21vi_ | wols: and what if i ask, how can I do this, even before I would really do that, thats just curiosity, not getting support. | 09:21 |
| cr0w | i have a problem...i want install SPLASH screen and my GDM themes is too much large..how i change the resolution ? | 09:22 |
| artagnon | cr0w: scale the image using an image editing program? | 09:22 |

| a13x | i am getting this error: dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute post-installation script: Exec format error | 09:22 |

| g3org3s | DistroJockey, ohh i already did it n closed console , i will try that , and if doesnt work after restart , i will come back :) thakns alot !! | 09:22 |
| artagnon | laughtear: /etc/fstab | 09:23 |
| DistroJockey | g3org3s, k | 09:23 |
| ra21vi_ | so it means, this is just a channel where people should only come when they get error. Let me put, how good the support is. | 09:23 |
| wols | laughtear: man fstab. /etc/fstab | 09:23 |
| DistroJockey | g3org3s, you're welcome | 09:23 |
| g3org3s | DistroJockey, thanks alot , i appreciate the help | 09:23 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja and ffr you could have just said "edit /etc/init.d/udev" | 09:23 |
| artagnon | laughtear: Look at the lines in the file to learn from them. And write your own after the ones already present (if any) | 09:23 |
| wols | a13x: what package? | 09:23 |
| a13x | actually, i had a file system crash from which i recovered | 09:24 |
| a13x | gstreamer library files were damaged | 09:24 |
| Shish_ | hey, this is really weird (for me), i just plugged in my external harddrive and it says unable to mount... and thats that?! what do i do? please | 09:24 |
| wols | Shish_: what did you do? | 09:25 |
| a13x | i wanted to reinstall, so i tried, and go the error dpkg (subprocess): unable to execute post-installation script: Exec format error | 09:25 |
| wols | a13x: I guess gstreamer wasn't the only thing damaged? | 09:25 |
| laughtear | artagnon, wols, XiXaQ: thanks everyone..:) | 09:25 |
| artagnon | Shish_: paste the dmesg | tail's lines relevant to this issue | 09:25 |
| Shish_ | wols: nothin, just plugged in the usb, and normally it mounts.. but an error popped up sayin unable to mount... | 09:25 |
| XiXaQ | laughtear, you're welcome, and have fun :) | 09:25 |
| Shish_ | artagnon: im sorry, im not sure what u mean... | 09:25 |
| LSD|Ninja | Agent_bob: That's not the way it's supposed to work. If you want to bypass the proper way of doing things because you;re too lazy to learn it then that's your problem | 09:25 |
| wols | Shish_: try to mount manually | 09:25 |
| artagnon | type dmesg|tail in the terminal | 09:25 |
| a13x | wols: correct | 09:25 |
| artagnon | and show us the output | 09:26 |
| Shish_ | wols: no idea how to mount manually...:S sorry... im basic! | 09:26 |
| Shish_ | artagnon: ok did that, what exactly do u want me to paste? | 09:26 |
| artagnon | Shish_: paste everything actually to rafb.net/paste or similar | 09:27 |
| a13x | wols: how can i fix this error | 09:27 |
| Agent_bob | LSD|Ninja i only asked how to stop it from mounting on /dev didn't ask for a attitude. i have one of my own thank you. | 09:27 |
| wols | Agent_bob: with your own ubuntu you can do whatever your heart desires, good things, bad things or building baby mulching machines. however if you help someone in here, you can ONLY tell the ubuntu approved way. e.g. no envy for videocards and the like | 09:27 |

| wols | a13x: I asked you something else | 09:28 |
| LSD|Ninja | You can do some pretty neat stuff with udev, the trouble is that people aren't willing to learn it so get all pissy when it doesn't work the way they want | 09:28 |
| wols | Agent_bob: doing that is simply stupid | 09:28 |

| Shish_ | artagnon: k did that, but it says only root can do that | 09:35 |
| artagnon | right, just add a sudo in front of it | 09:35 |
| Shish_ | artagnon: im sorry for testin ur patience here... im sure that has a simple fix...? | 09:35 |

| DistroJockey | cr0w, can you post a screenshot of it please? | 09:48 |
| mgolisch | its the gnome splash screen probably | 09:48 |
| mgolisch | but it shouldnt be enabled by default as it sucks | 09:49 |
| cr0w | come si cattura la immagine ? con STAMP ? | 09:49 |
| cr0w | how capture the image? with STAMP? | 09:49 |
| DistroJockey | cr0w, ahh, sorry, I thought you ment after you login | 09:49 |
| ActionBoy | I'm pretty new to linux, and my Hardy install on my laptop has decided to stall at "starting up..." and I don't really know how to go about troubleshooting it, anyone have any ideas? (I believe it has to do with an update that I now realize probably came from the ubuntu-proposed repository which I turned on a few days ago for something unrelated) | 09:50 |
| cr0w | one is before the login. how I make? | 09:50 |
| DistroJockey | cr0w, not sure you can at that stage | 09:50 |
| ajay | <ajay_> Hi guys | 09:50 |
| ajay | Im a starter in the linux world | 09:50 |
| ajay | I could handle basic stuff so i dont know if i could ask simple questions to you guys | 09:50 |
| ajay | meaning do i have to to use a channel for beginners | 09:50 |
| FloodBot1 | ajay: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:50 |
| rconan | ActionBoy, mine does that with kernel 2.6.24-20, have you tried booting an older kernel? | 09:50 |
| rconan | 2.6.24-19 works fine for me | 09:51 |
| ActionBoy | rconan - Nope, but that's exactly the update I was referring to, how do I go about booting an older kernel? (I have tons of windows experience, and barely any with linux, trying to learn...) | 09:51 |
| DistroJockey | cr0w, Print Screen button works after logging in, but probably not before | 09:51 |
| gordonjcp | ajay: no, just ask away ;-) | 09:51 |
| ajay | thanks alot | 09:51 |
| ajay | ill start with a very simple one hehe | 09:52 |
| rconan | ActionBoy, if you press escape when grub is counting down from three to one you will get a menu | 09:52 |
| ajay | when i di uname -a am i suppose to see what is the version on linux i have | 09:52 |
| rconan | ajay, it shows you the kernel version among other things yes | 09:52 |
| ajay | i mean uname -a | 09:52 |
| ajay | i want to know like if its feisty | 09:53 |
| ajay | or hardy stuff like that | 09:53 |
| mgolisch | lsb_release -a | 09:53 |
| ActionBoy | rconan - Well, that was a lot easier than I expected, lol, and it seems to have done the trick :) is there anything I need to do to make that the default? | 09:53 |
| ajay | thanks | 09:53 |
| transistor_x | hi | 09:54 |
| ajay | rconan im reading on beryl | 09:54 |
| rconan | ActionBoy, change "default 0" to "default 2" in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 09:54 |
| ajay | i want to know how could i verify its already set up | 09:55 |
| ActionBoy | rconan - great, thanks, you're a lifesaver, really appreciate it | 09:55 |
| rconan | ajay, what version of ubuntu are you running? | 09:55 |
| Roro_ | join #wiwiland | 09:55 |
| ajay | 2.6.24-16-generic | 09:55 |
| Roro_ | err... wrong window -_- | 09:55 |
| rconan | no... as in gutsy or hardy? | 09:55 |
| mgolisch | lsb_release -a | 09:56 |
| mgolisch | should tell you | 09:56 |
| ajay | aaw sorry | 09:56 |
| ajay | its hardy | 09:56 |
| ajay | 8.04 | 09:56 |
| rconan | it should be set up by default | 09:56 |

| mgolisch | why beryl? hardy ships with compiz-fussion | 09:56 |
| ali1234 | hi. i just tried to burn a 4GB iso to DVD but i only had 2.7GB free on /. so i moved the image to another partition and then deleted it from / yet i still have only 2.7GB free. what is going on? | 09:56 |
| ajay | thats the thing guy im a starter im reading alot on the graphic thing | 09:57 |
| ajay | i dont know where to start | 09:57 |
| rconan | compiz-fusion which is installed by default is probably your best best | 09:57 |
| mgolisch | ali1234: how did you delete it? using your filemanager? the filemanager just moves/copies it to a hidden trash directory | 09:57 |
| mgolisch | ali1234: it wont realy delte the file unless you clean your trashcan | 09:57 |
| a13x | DistroJockey, thanks, that last forum linked helped | 09:58 |
| ajay | i selected the extra option in the visual effect option there | 09:58 |
| ali1234 | mgolisch: i used the shell, rm -rf "the_directory" | 09:58 |
| mgolisch | ali1234: strange | 09:58 |
| mgolisch | it should be gone then | 09:58 |
| ali1234 | yes, isn't it? do you think i should run fdisk? | 09:58 |
| DistroJockey | a13x, ahh cool :) You're welcome | 09:58 |
| mgolisch | maybe try flush | 09:58 |
| mgolisch | and if its still not freed do a filesystem check | 09:58 |
| ajay | i could see some of the great graphic options (my terminal is waving when i move it) | 09:58 |
| ali1234 | mgolisch: "flush: command not found" - i already tried sync | 09:59 |
| konsep | h | 09:59 |
| ajay | but basically thats it I would like to be able to have the cube option there like i saw on youtube | 09:59 |
| mgolisch | ali1234: aehm thats what i meant | 09:59 |
| mgolisch | :) | 09:59 |
| rconan | you need to install compiz config settings manager | 09:59 |
| ajay | btw sorry for asking you all these questions | 09:59 |
| ajay | ok | 09:59 |
| DistroJockey | ali1234, you could also check df -h | 09:59 |
| ajay | what about the emeral manager | 09:59 |
| ali1234 | DistroJockey: that is what i am looking at | 10:00 |
| ajay | i have this installed but do i need it | 10:00 |
| mgolisch | if you want to use emerald themes get one too | 10:00 |
| DistroJockey | ali1234, then I assume the place you moved it to is still under / ? | 10:00 |
| ali1234 | DistroJockey: no the place i _copied_ it to is a USB external drive | 10:01 |
| ajay | it tells me that its already installed | 10:01 |
| ali1234 | DistroJockey: after copying i md5 both files to check them, then deleted the original | 10:01 |
| ajay | so i executed the compiz in terminal | 10:01 |
| ali1234 | DistroJockey: but the space was not freed | 10:01 |
| DistroJockey | ali1234, ahh. hmm | 10:02 |
| rconan | ajay, if ccsm is installed you just need to run it and turn on the cube effect if that's the one you want | 10:02 |
| ali1234 | ok then, what is the correct way to run fsck on /? | 10:03 |
| Kucuk | What command would I need to mount /dev/hda2 to /home | 10:03 |
| utilisateur | hi folks | 10:03 |
| utilisateur | is there a graphical ubuntu equivalent to kinternet to start/stop pppoe connections graphically? | 10:04 |
| ajay | i started the compiz in terminal | 10:06 |
| ajay | it changed my display screen | 10:06 |
| neil_d | I would like to join 4 audio files into 1, what format should I use, how could I do this ? | 10:07 |
| ajay | but i did a ctrl+c in the terminal to close compiz and it jammed all my windows | 10:07 |
| LSD|Ninja | ajay: did you run compiz from that terminal? | 10:07 |
| ali1234 | neil_d: i recommend audacity for doing that with a GUI. format choice depends on the sounds and what you plan to do with them | 10:07 |
| ajay | yes | 10:08 |
| LSD|Ninja | ajay: then that's why | 10:08 |
| LSD|Ninja | ajay: you probably forgot to run it as a background (&) process | 10:08 |
| ajay | sorry :S im a starter thats why | 10:09 |
| ajay | well is there a tutorial that i should read | 10:09 |
| ajay | because i dont know the differnce between compiz or beryl | 10:09 |
| LSD|Ninja | ajay: they;re the same now | 10:09 |
| ajay | ok | 10:09 |
| LSD|Ninja | ajay: to enable compiz you go into System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Desktop Effects and pick your poison | 10:09 |
| neil_d | ali1234: thanks, will try that | 10:09 |
| bozy | hello,test | 10:09 |

| bidossessi_ | anyone, gnome equivalent to kinternert? | 10:10 |
| ali1234 | AH i see the problem. the file is still open for rw :) | 10:10 |
| ajay | LSD|Ninja: i dont see that | 10:11 |
| DistroJockey | ali1234, ahh :) | 10:11 |
| ali1234 | needed to shutdown bittorrent, of course | 10:11 |
| ajay | me the only thing that i did in there was to set the EXTRA option in visual effect | 10:11 |
| ajay | LSD|Ninja: now i see like my terminal waves when i move it stuff like that | 10:12 |
| mgolisch | yeah | 10:12 |
| LSD|Ninja | ajay: that's compiz at work | 10:12 |
| ajay | but how could i get like the cube effect | 10:12 |

| ubottu | ajay: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 10:12 |
| ajay | ok guys thanks alot u rock everybody | 10:13 |
| ajay | ill try that right now | 10:13 |
| LSD|Ninja | Why isn't that installed by default anyway? If you enable compiz it's almost a requirement so making it part of the base system isn't such a bad idea | 10:13 |
| DistroJockey | LSD|Ninja, yeah, I agree (mostly) :) | 10:13 |
| ali1234 | LSD|Ninja: the default compiz config is quite good if you just want a usable system. you only need ccsm if you want to make your desktop look like some youtube video atrocity | 10:14 |
| KintaRo | how can i hide my ip like unaffiliated ? | 10:14 |

| cr0w | on login a small right window appears me low with the written Gnome - Nautilus and is three folders. all it is celestial and white how it is removed? me it is not never appeared before | 10:15 |
| ali1234 | actually imo the only good plugin that isn't on by default is shelf... and i went through the whole of ccsm and tried everything about two days ago | 10:15 |
| DistroJockey | ajay, and the ccsm will be in System - Preferences - Advanced Desktop Effects Settings | 10:15 |
| LSD|Ninja | ali1234: I agree, but to do any real tweaking with it you need to have it installed so it doesn't make an awful lot of sense to have it seperate - especially given that so many people come in and ask questions where it's the answer | 10:16 |

| chronographer | where user is you | 11:55 |
| pulseezar | ok i can probs manage that | 11:55 |
| soldering_x | hi, i use to have a win pc for file sharin at home, but a installed ubuntu server 8, everything is working good but i would like to know if it secure, i installed samba, and it work faster and better i think | 11:55 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, be carefull with both those commands | 11:55 |
| pulseezar | i'll give it a try. thanks! | 11:55 |
| pulseezar | i'll try... | 11:55 |
| veoveo | 'Morning people~ | 11:55 |
| pulseezar | nothings gonna explode is it? | 11:56 |
| chronographer | nope, just make sure you don't chown important places | 11:56 |
| chronographer | chown means change owner, user:user is 'user=user' 'group=user' right? | 11:56 |
| pulseezar | is the path to your second hdd just /hdb? | 11:56 |
| chronographer | probably sdb | 11:57 |
| unohu | hi...my system crashed and now few of the files in my home directory are corrupted ...what should i do now? | 11:57 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, chronographer : best not to chown a whole drive (especially if it's a system drive) | 11:57 |
| pulseezar | oh yeah | 11:57 |
| soldering_x | mmm | 11:57 |
| pulseezar | it's not a system drive | 11:57 |
| chronographer | you can use chmod eh? | 11:57 |
| pulseezar | i formatted my second hdd to ext3 from ntfs but now I don't have permission to use it! | 11:57 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, best bet is to mount it with the correct umask | 11:58 |
| soldering_x | the thing is that i folowed intruction from a website, and i did some those thing chown | 11:58 |
| unohu | hi...my system crashed and now few of the files in my home directory are corrupted ...what should i do now? | 11:58 |
| soldering_x | but i dont really know how thats work | 11:59 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, via /etc/fstab if you want it permanent | 11:59 |
| chronographer | unoho: what is happening which is bad? | 11:59 |
| m0u5e | when setting compiz opacity settings, anyone been able to do it so that youtube fullscreen videos are not translucet? | 11:59 |
| soldering_x | :-( | 11:59 |
| unohu | few of my configuration files got corrupted .... | 11:59 |
| m0u5e | for some reason a youtube fullscreen is considered a type=DropdownMenu... | 11:59 |
| pulseezar | mount with correct umask? | 12:00 |
| chronographer | you can back them up, get rid of them, and let the program make new ones? | 12:00 |
| === morda is now known as mug | ||
| pulseezar | i can't find /etc/fstab | 12:00 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, but I'm not up on that really so can't direct (but a chown/chmod is maybe not the best way to go) | 12:00 |
| pulseezar | ahh ok | 12:00 |
| === mug is now known as Nefilim | ||
| unohu | i lost firefox configurations and all my addons | 12:00 |
| pulseezar | chown didn't work cos it couldn't find sdb | 12:00 |
| pulseezar | what would the full path for your second hdd be? | 12:01 |
| chronographer | if you go "gedit /etc/fstab" and find the line in it which points to your hard drive | 12:01 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, sdb is the drive, not a filesystem/partition | 12:01 |
| pulseezar | soz I haven't got it all figured out yet! | 12:01 |
| pulseezar | ahh ok | 12:01 |
| === Nefilim is now known as mug` | ||
| pulseezar | that complicates things! | 12:01 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, sdb1 would be a partition | 12:01 |

| soldering_x | Install the Samba packages: | 12:03 |
| FloodBot1 | soldering_x: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:03 |
| unohu | huh ....this is worse than windows ...just one crash and i have to reinstall all my firefox addons !!!! and i lost all my saved passwords and history :-( | 12:03 |
| pulseezar | aww itt doesn't exist | 12:03 |
| stmartin | can I ask u how can I make, to stop lighting up the diode of the Scroll Lock, when I press ALt+Shift? | 12:03 |
| jpds | !noroot | solid_liq | 12:03 |

| soldering_x | sorry i did this | 12:04 |
| DistroJockey | pulseezar, sudo fdisk -l will list all drives and partitions | 12:04 |

| CyclonB | Welcome | 12:04 |
| CyclonB | I can't see Trash on 8.04, I moved some files in Trash, but I can't find Trash anywhere, help me!!!! | 12:04 |
| DistroJockey | !ask | stmartin | 12:04 |
| ubottu | stmartin: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 12:04 |
| stmartin | ok | 12:05 |
| legend2440 | !trash | CyclonB | 12:05 |
| CyclonB | what legend2440? | 12:05 |
| stmartin | When I press Alt+Shift, my Scroll Lock diode lights up. How to disable this? | 12:05 |
| CyclonB | I don't see trash ANYWHERE!!!!!!!!! | 12:05 |
| unohu | can somebody help me recover my firefox profile......i am new to ubuntu | 12:05 |
| stmartin | unohu this is not firefox support | 12:05 |
| stmartin | ask google | 12:05 |
| chronographer | you can add an icon to your desktop with gconf | 12:05 |
| blairy | no matter what I do I cant seem to get my system loaded with ubuntu correctly, the updates never seem to be loaded without errors | 12:06 |
| legend2440 | CyclonB: its in /home/<yourusername/.local | 12:06 |
| CyclonB | ok | 12:06 |
| ubottu | CyclonB: The location of Trash has changed in 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash | 12:06 |
| DistroJockey | stmartin, did you ask google? | 12:06 |
| stmartin | yes | 12:06 |
| geirha | CyclonB: by default it's on the bottom panel, to the far right. If you have accidentally removed it, right click one of the panels, and choose add to panel, then add the trash icon again | 12:06 |
| stmartin | and unfortunately he didn't help me | 12:06 |
| Adantan_Alex | hi | 12:06 |
| stmartin | that's why I am here | 12:06 |
| unohu | stmartin: but ubuntu crashed and i lost all my configuration...thats why im asking here | 12:06 |
| pulseezar | ok so the partition on my second hard disk is sdb1, so would this command be correct: sudo chown me:me /dev/sdb1? | 12:06 |
| zaapiel | is ubuntu the most popular linux distro now? | 12:06 |
| zaapiel | as far as those things can be recorded | 12:07 |
| DistroJockey | stmartin, sounds like a keyboard config issue to me (maybe language preference?) | 12:07 |
| Adantan_Alex | i installed ubuntu while i was running windows | 12:07 |
| CyclonB | Will Delete from trash, move item back on it's previous place or will it delete it from HD?!?!?! | 12:07 |
| Adantan_Alex | pretty good | 12:07 |
| chronographer | unohu: I have firefox configuration settings left over from my first debian instal, ubuntu crashing never broke any of those! | 12:07 |
| blairy | no matter what I do I cant seem to get my system loaded with ubuntu correctly, the updates never seem to be loaded without errors | 12:07 |
| geirha | CyclonB: it will remove it from the harddrive | 12:07 |
| Adantan_Alex | if i un installed ubuntu would that delete the partition? i in stalled it while i was running windows | 12:07 |
| legend2440 | CyclonB: it will delete it from HD | 12:07 |
| soldering_x | is it a bad configuration ? | 12:07 |
| unohu | chronographer: then may be ubuntu is not for everyone..... :-( | 12:08 |
| chronographer | pulseezar: a better way is to set it up in fstab properly. Post your /etc/fstab to pastebin | 12:08 |
| DistroJockey | blairy, sounds to me like you need better sources/mirror | 12:08 |
| pulseezar | so when i type the command and hit enter, what should happen next? | 12:08 |
| pulseezar | ok | 12:08 |
| CyclonB | I faked up my google earth somehow, DAMN!!!!!!!!!! | 12:08 |

| === fde_ is now known as fde | ||
| Adantan_Alex | if i un installed ubuntu would that delete the partition? i in stalled it while i was running windows | 12:08 |
| chronographer | unohu: have you got your settings in windows still? you can move them over again | 12:08 |
| blairy | sources/mirror? | 12:08 |
| chronographer | yep adantan, you're screwed =) | 12:08 |
| chronographer | =D | 12:08 |
| fde | Adantan_Alex: via Wubi? | 12:09 |
| DistroJockey | blairy, yeah, where you get your packages from | 12:09 |
| Adantan_Alex | .... i got a 15 gigabyte partition | 12:09 |
| blairy | I got the CD from the website | 12:09 |
| Adantan_Alex | would that delete the partition and give the 15 gigabytes to windows? soz for the enter | 12:09 |
| fde | Adantan_Alex: Did you use Wubi or the regular installer? | 12:10 |
| naz | a fresh install of ubuntu looks nice on my monitor, but when i install the nvidia binary drivers, the screen fonts are changed, and they look pretty nasty... they're all bold and larger than necessary and the sizes are all mismatched | 12:10 |
| Adantan_Alex | ah i put the disc in | 12:10 |
| thinman1189 | I'm having some trouble with flash in firefox. I'm running 8.04 64bit on intel dual. sometimes flash stuff won't load, like youtube, and sometimes it will take a while before it loads. slacker.com loads the initial screen but then won't play, and clicking on other stations brings up their info but doesn't even load the playlist. | 12:10 |
| Adantan_Alex | and it loaded up i picked install on windows | 12:10 |
| fde | Adantan_Alex: Ok... then it'll likely return the space back to Windows | 12:10 |
| Adantan_Alex | phew | 12:10 |
| Adantan_Alex | :P ty | 12:10 |
| fde | Adantan_Alex: Does it show up in your Add/Remove Programs list on Windows? | 12:11 |
| Adantan_Alex | sec | 12:11 |

| DistroJockey | blairy, yep | 12:11 |
| Adantan_Alex | yes it does it saying its 15 gigabytes lol | 12:11 |

| CyclonB | Now now now, I have 1 Terabyte HD on my laptop, how to run .bin files btw? | 12:12 |
| fde | Adantan_Alex: Then yeah... just remove it from there, it's just a virtual disk... | 12:12 |
| chronographer | pulse, copy and paste it in, that one was empty | 12:12 |
| Adantan_Alex | few ty | 12:12 |
| DistroJockey | blairy, they don't include updates. And if you are directing something at me, tis best to prefix it with my name | 12:13 |
| pulseezar | really? i shall try again? | 12:13 |
| chronographer | CyclonB: i think you can run them from terminal | 12:13 |
| blairy | oh ok | 12:13 |
| blairy | DistroJockey I ran updates and they didnt run good | 12:13 |
| Adantan_Alex | o0 | 12:13 |
| Adantan_Alex | ubuntu owns all | 12:13 |
| chronographer | pulseezar: uyeah. go "alt F2" then type "gedit /etc/fstab" then copy paste that it | 12:13 |
| DistroJockey | blairy, I am suggesting that your apt sources may not be the most reliable | 12:13 |
| chronographer | *in | 12:13 |
| blairy | distroJockey, "apt" sources? | 12:14 |
| Adantan_Alex | and windows owns all but linux and windows have there up sides | 12:14 |
| Adantan_Alex | ok | 12:14 |
| DistroJockey | blairy, but we would need an error message | 12:14 |
| pulseezar | kk | 12:14 |

| inhortte | Does anyone have experience with getting an (old) sony vaio (pcg fx220 to be specific) screen to run 1024x768? | 12:15 |

| pulseezar | i dunno why it didn't work before | 12:15 |
| blairy | well Im confused now so I will have to deal with this later | 12:15 |
| soldering_x | does anyone know where can i get more info about ubuntu server? | 12:16 |
| blairy | goodbye | 12:16 |
| DistroJockey | blairy, ok. Sorry :( | 12:16 |
| blairy | quit | 12:16 |
| chronographer | can you check that link and tell me if its all there? | 12:16 |
| Pici | soldering_x: What sort of info are you looking for? | 12:16 |
| pulseezar | yeah that looks right | 12:17 |
| pulseezar | NOOOOOOOO | 12:17 |

| VeryBigNude | hi, I'm runing ubuntu 8.04 server but something happend and I cant resolve urls from it anymore, any ideas how to solve this? | 12:18 |
| soldering_x | i am new to linux, i used windows for a long time, so i need anything that i can use to secure my home server, i dont know if there is a firewall for ubuntu | 12:18 |
| Pici | pulseezar: I know its not really busy here right now, but can we keep the random chatter in #ubuntu-offtopic and leave this place for support. | 12:18 |
| pulseezar | aye sozlike | 12:18 |
| naz | VeryBigNude are you using dhcp? can you ping IPs? | 12:19 |
| pajamian | VeryBigNude: what happens when you do a command such as: dig www.google.com | 12:19 |
| VeryBigNude | I can ping and wget with ip but not url | 12:19 |
| chronographer | ok so you are sure that your hard drive is sdb1 ?? | 12:19 |
| naz | soldering_x if you're only after a firewall, then ipcop is the distribution you're after | 12:19 |
| Pici | soldering_x: Ubuntu has firewall capabilited built in, which can either be managed by the cli utility iptables or by installing a graphical firewall manager like Firestarter | 12:19 |
| === bloodboy is now known as exhort | ||
| naz | VeryBigNude cat resolv.conf to see if you're using the right dns server | 12:19 |
| pulseezar | not totally sure | 12:20 |

| === sea is now known as sea4ever | ||
| VeryBigNude | when I runned dig then it worked | 12:20 |
| chronographer | type sudo fdisk -l | 12:20 |
| naz | VeryBigNude in a terminal type cat /etc/resolv.conf | 12:20 |
| VeryBigNude | but apt-get cant' resolve ursl, or wget | 12:20 |
| pulseezar | yeah did that | 12:20 |
| pajamian | VeryBigNude: so it gave you an IP address (or probably a few of them) for google? | 12:20 |
| chronographer | it giave one called sdb1 ?? | 12:20 |
| DistroJockey | !firewall | See that, but you are pretty safe by default (ufw may also be worth a look at) | soldering_x | 12:20 |
| pulseezar | thats why i'm pretty sure! | 12:20 |
| ubottu | See that, but you are pretty safe by default (ufw may also be worth a look at) | soldering_x: 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). | 12:20 |
| chronographer | /dev/sdb1 /media/STORAGE ext3 defaults 0 2 | 12:20 |
| chronographer | add that to your fstab at the bottom | 12:21 |
| soldering_x | so ubuntu server does not have a firewall by default?, | 12:21 |
| Ghufran | hi there | 12:21 |
| chronographer | with /media/STORAGE replaced with where you want it mounted | 12:21 |
| Pici | soldering_x: Yes, it does. Its called iptables. | 12:21 |
| Ghufran | i need some info | 12:21 |
| pulseezar | i don't have the permissions to save the file :( | 12:21 |
| inhortte | does anyone know if there is a way to recongigure your X/gnome setup after install? ie, a gui of sorts? i am new here, by the way... | 12:22 |

| Ghufran | anyone knows about support for penryn processors in the new kernel? | 12:22 |
| AljosHa | Anyone here have openvpn server? | 12:22 |
| pajamian | VeryBigNude: hang on a min... | 12:22 |
| VeryBigNude | pajamanian I have serach XPL.net and some nameserver | 12:22 |
| chronographer | ok... type "alt F2" again, then put in "gksu gedit /etc/fstab" this gives you 'root' permissions | 12:22 |

| pajamian | Ghufran: you get somewhat better performance with 64 bit, but if you're running a desktop you will have difficulty with things such as flash, java, and 32 bit video codecs, etc. | 12:36 |
| Ghufran | because as far as i know it doesnt support my processor yet | 12:36 |
| Pici | mien07: Use the method that the bot advises, and not a third party installer. | 12:36 |
| ForsakenSoul | doesn anyone have any ideas how I can fix it | 12:36 |
| Guest86488 | brb | 12:36 |
| DistroJockey | Ghufran, well, I stick with 32bit as there is more support/less hassles | 12:36 |

| mien07 | ok | 12:36 |
| mien07 | thanks | 12:36 |

| riz0n | i am using apache on ubuntu to host web sites off of my PC. for whatever reason when i put a new file on the site i have to change its permissions in order for it to work without displaying 403 in client browser. is there a tag i can add to my apache conf file that will eliminate having to chmod every file i upload to the server? thanks. | 12:37 |
| Ghufran | yes ive stuck with that too for now.. | 12:37 |
| Ghufran | DistroJockey i have T9300 penryn processor | 12:37 |
| wols | Ghufran: of course it's supported | 12:37 |
| Ghufran | which really really drains the battery | 12:38 |
| pajamian | VeryBigNude: try changing your DNS servers, then. You can use opendns if you need. Chances are, though, that it's a temporary problem with you're ISPs DNS servers and it will clear up by tomorrow. | 12:38 |
| Pici | ForsakenSoul: User configurations (those in ~/) are not deleted if you purge a package. | 12:38 |
| Ghufran | wols: with cpufrequency scaling? | 12:38 |
| ForsakenSoul | Pici: ok thanks | 12:38 |

| thinman1189 | I'm having some trouble with flash in firefox. I'm running 8.04 64bit on intel dual. sometimes flash stuff won't load, like youtube, and sometimes it will take a while before it loads. I can load short music videos but anything like a game trailer just won't load. slacker.com loads the initial screen but then won't play, and clicking on other stations brings up their info but doesn't even load the playlist. | 13:02 |
| ikonia | Guest9569: if you do ifconifg -a can you see "eth0" yes or no | 13:02 |
| Guest9569 | south africa has limited bandwidth:/ | 13:02 |
| DistroJockey | Guest9569, maybe : http://docs.google.com/?pli=1#all | 13:03 |
| rconan | Guest9569, for future reference pastebin is better for this sort of thing. Goto http://rafb.net/paste and paste it in and then give us the link | 13:04 |
| pajamian | !pastebin | 13:05 |
| ubottu | 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) | 13:05 |
| pajamian | use that pastebin | 13:05 |
| stmartin | DistroJockey, on the another user it works | 13:05 |
| gnomefreak | billgoldberg: can you please join #ubuntu-ops | 13:05 |
| rconan | oh yes... i always forget ubuntu have their own pastebin | 13:05 |
| Guest9569 | lol my point is i can only do ipconfig when on ubuntu and i am not ubuntu | 13:05 |
| Guest9569 | and so i can't open the document | 13:05 |
| Guest9569 | with the saved output | 13:06 |
| DistroJockey | stmartin, k, then it's one of those . directories as you mentioned | 13:06 |
| ikonia | Guest9569: goto ubuntu, do "ifconfig -a" report back if you have an eth0 device, with a "yes/no" response | 13:06 |
| pajamian | Guest1357: DistroJockey gave you a link just now which will help. | 13:06 |
| pajamian | errr Guest9569 | 13:06 |

| stmartin | DistroJockey, what do u mena? | 13:08 |
| stmartin | mean* | 13:08 |
| ikonia | Guest9569: I will ask you one last time. Boot into ubuntu, do "ifconfig -a" and repond with yes/no to if you have an eth0 device | 13:08 |
| rconan | Guest9569, was that with a "-a" on it? | 13:08 |

| WelshDragon | Hey, is there a way i could route all outgoing connections through a different IP address (So that when using the web browser it would use the IP i want, not the one it currently uses) ? | 13:09 |
| Rafn | Well i'am kinda new on linux so i where wondering if there are a mp3 player i can get for Ubuntu where i can add a albumlist just like i used to in Winamp? kinda hard to handel lots of album as singel track on one big long playlidt | 13:09 |
| Rafn | list* | 13:09 |
| stmartin | I press Alt+Shift to change into cyrillic support. So the diode of Scroll Lock on my keyboard, lights up. How to fix this? | 13:09 |
| ikonia | WelshDragon: iptables could do that if your machine is connected to 2 interfaces with different IP's | 13:09 |
| DistroJockey | stmartin, as I need to sleep now and would only end up googling things. Good luck. | 13:09 |
| krazy-h | i want that my terminal speak everything i type in | 13:10 |
| WelshDragon | ikonia, the intefaces are eth0 and eth0:0, Does that count as 2 interfaces? | 13:10 |
| billgoldberg | krazy-h: espeak | 13:10 |
| ikonia | WelshDragon: do they both have different IPs ? | 13:10 |
| WelshDragon | There's only 1 actual physical interface | 13:10 |
| stmartin | DistroJockey, ok. Thanks for the help. | 13:10 |

| mr-retard | m0u5e, when i try the exact same pages or functions on another computer they work just fine.. its mostly when "posting" stuff | 13:17 |
| junglecrazd1 | billgoldberg, that's what i thought. | 13:17 |
| billgoldberg | A plugin that's a .dll sounds very dubious by the way | 13:17 |
| m0u5e | mr-retard: does it work sometimes in firefox (in linux) | 13:18 |
| junglecrazd1 | it is a security program my bank uses. now way around it. | 13:18 |
| m0u5e | mr-retard: or do all pages time out? | 13:18 |
| krazy-h | i want that, espeak speech everything i type withing the "espeak+words" commands | 13:18 |
| mr-retard | no not all pages time out, just several . | 13:18 |
| m0u5e | junglecrazd1: you could always try installing firefox for windows and using wine? :D | 13:18 |
| m0u5e | mr-retard: and these pages work fine on different computers? | 13:18 |
| Guest9569 | http://rafb.net/p/AVSC1e56.html | 13:18 |

| m0u5e | cr0w: sorry? xD | 13:19 |
| mr-retard | m0u5e, as of now all i noticed is that its mostly pages with a form post method.. | 13:19 |
| m0u5e | mr-retard: hrm, thats bizarre | 13:19 |
| cr0w | compiz.. something of similar exists ? | 13:19 |
| m0u5e | cr0w: well, theres cpu composite rendering, but thats slow... | 13:19 |

| Guest9569 | http://rafb.net/p/AVSC1e56.html is my ifconfig | 13:20 |
| m0u5e | cr0w: for gnome, its a little more of a hassle to enable, and it doesnt work all that well yet | 13:20 |
| mr-retard | m0u5e, i figured its bizar., brb going to try and fix this. | 13:20 |
| m0u5e | cr0w: even if there was an alternative, it doesn't sound like your gpu is powerful enough to support it :( | 13:20 |

| mgolisch | ra21vi_: no from outside | 13:40 |
| ra21vi_ | ok, | 13:40 |
| pajamian | Discerer: and also keep in mind that umask is sort of the opposite to chmod. If you want the files to come up 777 then the umask would actually be 000. | 13:41 |

| Heliquebec | I'm unsure, its an hawking wtc54g | 14:07 |
| cwillu | pogay, most people have no interest in running more than one connection at a time; for instance, if you're on wireless and then plug in a network cable, the best thing to do is disable the wireless and use the wired connection instead. If you don't want it to manage a particular connection, you need to change the settings on it | 14:08 |

| cwillu | central, which version number | 14:20 |
| central | ok so i reinstall firefox3 and i will see if i got the problem again i will tell you | 14:20 |
| cwillu | (synaptic -> flashplugin-nonfree - > installed version) | 14:20 |
| ruphy | wols: I knew of a trick of adding the sources and setting their priority to very low in some way, and install just that package explicitly telling it to install it from intrepid, but now I can't figure it out anymore | 14:20 |
| wols | central: clear your firefox profiles completely | 14:20 |
| TiredWolf | wols: i'd be careful saying it's illegal in the EU, the EU is made of many countries, and not all of them interpret EU laws quite the same way | 14:20 |
| pytechd | soundray: I tried that, too. The two 2GB dims are identical and dual channel is disabled | 14:20 |
| ruphy | wols: hmm... backport? you mean taking it from p.u.c and installing it with dpkg? | 14:21 |
| wols | ruphy: that is no trick but a way to break your ubuntu | 14:21 |
| cwillu | central, wols, well, just making a new profile (via firefox -P) should be sufficient | 14:21 |
| isakey | TiredWolf: i installed bandwidthd, how to run it? (and ubuntu guided me tru few steps to configure it, so it is probably ready to run) | 14:21 |
| central | ok | 14:21 |
| wols | ruphy: you will install the dependencies of intrepid ruby as well and that's bad | 14:21 |
| TiredWolf | isakey, it's most likely already running, type "ps aux | grep bandw" | 14:21 |
| wols | ruphy: no I mean compiling your own .deb from sources | 14:21 |
| ruphy | wols: oh | 14:21 |
| soundray | pytechd: oh, there goes my nice theory. I don't have any more suggestions, except that you might ask in ##hardware | 14:21 |
| central | 9.0.124 flash | 14:21 |
| cwillu | ruphy, install the tarball from the ruby source, it'll install under /usr/local/... which is fine | 14:21 |
| isakey | TiredWolf: yes, how to use it? | 14:21 |
| pytechd | soundray: Thanks =) | 14:21 |
| ruphy | wols: that's the exactly the reason why I'm doing with packages now, it didn't work :P | 14:22 |
| ruphy | wols: well, actually, it worked | 14:22 |
| cwillu | central, 9.0.124.0ubuntu2? | 14:22 |
| ruphy | wols: just, then QtRuby and other things I installed didn't work anymore | 14:22 |
| TiredWolf | isakey, i guess it's just producing HTML files somewhere, possibly in /var/www | 14:22 |
| central | yes | 14:22 |
| fiction | I've been having a problem with the open windows and the application bars flickering after I come back from the monitor being turned off(the whole screen doesn't flicker, I can still see conky and the background), any suggestions? | 14:22 |
| wols | ruphy: I didn't say you should compile the ruby.com or whatever upstream source, but you compile intrepid sources to debs as do the intrepid developers | 14:22 |
| cwillu | central, run ff3 via firefox -P, create a new profile, and see if you can duplicate the crash from there | 14:22 |
| ruphy | wols: and, ruby doesn't have a make uninstall, I had to remove by hand stuff... which is... bad | 14:22 |
| ruphy | wols: haha | 14:22 |
| ruphy | wols: ok | 14:22 |
| isakey | TiredWolf: ok thanks... | 14:22 |
| wols | ruphy: I am not joking | 14:23 |
| ruphy | wols: I got you're not joking =) | 14:23 |
| ruphy | wols: my 'haha' was like 'eureka' =) | 14:23 |
| cwillu | central, if you can, then enable the backport repository, update flash to 10.*.* that's available there, and then disable the backport, restart firefox the same way, and try it again | 14:23 |
| wols | ruphy: I think you do. have a nice day | 14:23 |
| ruphy | wols: no, really, don't get me wrong man | 14:23 |

| wols | Araen: when is the screen going black? | 14:25 |
| ruphy | Heliquebec: ? | 14:25 |
| gnomefreak | and ff2 for that matter | 14:25 |
| zyx386 | best multi ISP client for ubuntu user? which one :) | 14:26 |
| Heliquebec | ruphy: it's a saying that have been popularized in Quebec for a french branch of pharmacy | 14:26 |
| soundray | apinunt: that's fine. You may need to ask someone else for help if it still doesn't work, as I won't be around for much longer | 14:26 |
| cwillu | gnomefreak, of course. But not every extension is available via synaptic, and not every user installs their extensions via the package manager firefoxsupport even if its there | 14:26 |
| gnomefreak | in the intrest of support the mozilla team asks that you use our packages | 14:26 |
| Araen | wols: never... | 14:26 |
| ruphy | Heliquebec: ahah, ok, I'm not quebequian, but I guess it has the same meaning ;-) | 14:27 |
| jcarouth | how do i install emacs without installing emacs22-gtk. i.e. i want it "command line only" | 14:27 |
| gnomefreak | cwillu: there are alot in archives. | 14:27 |
| wols | Araen: do you see a grub menu? | 14:27 |
| Araen | wols: No | 14:27 |
| jcarouth | sudo aptitude install --simulate --without-recommends emacs22-bin-common emacs, doesn't work | 14:27 |

| xnv | jcarouth: I can only suggest apt-get install vim :-) | 14:27 |
| wols | Araen: then fix your grub | 14:27 |
| cwillu | gnomefreak, not to draw this out :p But if all he had was repository packages installed, I'd doubt he'd be having a crashy ff3 :) | 14:27 |
| wols | Araen: or is this the live cd that has problems? | 14:27 |
| ForsakenSoul | has anyone used chm2pdf ? | 14:28 |
| cwillu | gnomefreak, (libflashsupport isn't installed) | 14:28 |
| jcarouth | xnv, haha well played. i'm about at that point | 14:28 |
| gnomefreak | will00: what app "needs" root to run? | 14:28 |
| Araen | i've tried to install windows, then i remove this partition because it doesn't work, and now i've a black screen | 14:28 |
| apinunt | soundray: Will do, and thanks for taking the time either way as we didn't know anything else to try. | 14:28 |

| legend2440 | Abed: is that toshiba bluetooth still working? | 14:29 |
| cwillu | gnomefreak, yes, I know. I was just saying that he doesn't have it installed, and his ff3 still crashes, so I'm suggesting that he might have done the 'force ff2 extensions to run in ff3' trick, together with extensions that weren't installed via the repository | 14:29 |

| will00 | gnomefreak, yes normally i would agree with you but this is for a server i wont have the time or ability to type the password in whenever it restarts | 14:30 |
| Abed | legend2440 yeah thnx but when i reboot i have to rmmod omnibook thenmodprobe | 14:30 |
| cwillu | will00, how did you install it? | 14:30 |
| gnomefreak | start with new profile than use safemode is the best route sinc emost see new profile is the fix | 14:30 |
| will00 | i used apt-get i think | 14:30 |
| cwillu | will00, anything running via /etc/rc.*/ will run as root | 14:30 |
| legend2440 | Abed: hmm thats odd | 14:30 |
| jabba_ | if one reads with the read() or recv() function from a socket in a select-loop for synchronous multiplexing and read fails to read all data which was send how to i recognize that there is still data to read? (blocking socket) | 14:31 |
| cwillu | gnomefreak, that's what I told him to do | 14:31 |
| jcarouth | xnv, ha, i can't believe i missed that | 14:31 |
| sisto | I've set up a second user account on my PC | 14:31 |
| cwillu | gnomefreak, glad we agree :p | 14:31 |
| * jcarouth must be blind | 14:31 | |
| gnomefreak | btw changing from ff2 to ff3 ff3 to ff2 is bad and can cause major profile issues | 14:31 |
| jcarouth | thanks | 14:31 |
| sisto | and that second user account can't run firefox | 14:31 |
| Abed | legend2440 np | 14:31 |
| sisto | firefox will only run if I type sudo firefox | 14:32 |
| gnomefreak | sisto: that is why | 14:32 |
| sisto | the first account can run firefox without problems | 14:32 |
| gnomefreak | sisto: now replace your profile and hope all is good | 14:32 |
| gnomefreak | sisto: that is a big NEVER to do | 14:32 |
| Abed | can i connect to my bluetooth device through terminal ??? | 14:32 |
| sisto | firefox just didn't run at all so I had to run it as root | 14:33 |
| gnomefreak | sisto: no you didnt | 14:33 |
| gnomefreak | sisto: it doesnt run there is an issue | 14:33 |
| sisto | what should I try if firefox doesn't run? | 14:34 |

| gnomefreak | junglecrazd1: did you unmount it before unplugging it? | 14:36 |
| ForsakenSoul | TiredWolf: thanks | 14:36 |
| TiredWolf | junglecrazd1: are you doing the "Safely remove" action (or whatever it's called in GNOME) before unplugging? | 14:36 |
| Gillpy | 14:36 | |
| junglecrazd1 | tiredwolf, how do i do that? | 14:37 |
| fwaokda | wols, which folders do i copy over and to where? | 14:37 |
| gnomefreak | junglecrazd1: right click the icon and select unmount | 14:37 |
| wols | I wouldn't copy over folders | 14:37 |
| TiredWolf | junglecrazd1: i don't use GNOME, but it's most certainly a menu entry in the right-click. | 14:37 |
| TiredWolf | junglecrazd1: do it, or you'll end up trashing your external drive. | 14:37 |
| will00 | cwillu, i didnt find gproftpd in any of the /etc/rc*.d folders | 14:37 |

| cwillu | will00, (and look for proftp, gproftp is just a frontend) | 14:38 |

| gnomefreak | cwillu: yep | 14:40 |
| TiredWolf | junglecrazd1: absolutely not. you need to tell your computer that you're about to unplug the drive *before* unplugging it, or it might try to read/write just while you're unplugging, resulting in data loss and/or physical damage to the drive. | 14:40 |

| cwillu | will00, not dead sure then, it should be running (have you started it or rebooted since you installed?) | 14:43 |
| engrxyz | what's the distinguishing difference between dual-head and xinerama | 14:44 |
| soundray | engrxyz: see if you can set it up via System-Preferences-Screen Resolution. You may have to reboot with the external monitor connected | 14:44 |
| wols | shah: well? | 14:45 |
| will00 | cwillu, yes the power cuts out occasionally, and the backup normally covers it but we had a 3 hour outage a few weeks ago | 14:45 |
| will00 | but it was working after that | 14:45 |
| cwillu | will00, "sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start" should start it, but the two may not be communicating (gproftpd might be doing something independant of the actual ftp config stored in /etc or whever proftpd normally stores it) | 14:45 |

| Flats | Hello, I have 8.04 as a dula boot setup wiih winXP. My primary of course is XP but I need to reinstall XP. Is there something I can backup from within Ubuntu so that once my XP is rebuilt, it will allow me to use the grub bootlaoder and have the same boot options as I do prior to reformatting winXP? I hope this makes sense | 15:04 |

| ice_cream | hi; i have this strange issue w/ a new ubuntu vm install --> my .ttf (truetype) fonts all seem to look blurry in something like gvim | 15:05 |
| sipior | maxrogers: okay, could i get you to pastebin the network numbers, along with the ouput of /sbin/route -n, and /sbin/ifconfig? | 15:05 |
| ice_cream | is this because of monitor configuration, or because i have forgotten some package? | 15:05 |
| geirha | markturnip: Make sure the harddrive is powered up before you connect the usb cable to the computer | 15:05 |

| panfist | hi, i'm trying to configure keyboard shortcuts to use the windows key. whenever i use the gnome system > preferences > keyboard shortcuts, the instant i press the windows key it captures "win L" as a shortcut, but I would like to use "win + letters" to configure a lot of shortcuts, for example amarok has "win + c" to play or pause | 15:07 |
| genii | stormzen: The values of that switch are gauged in KB per sec. So a number between 100 and 250 is pretty reasonable | 15:07 |
| genii | stormzen: Another useful switch can be --block-size=<number> where for that I usually use 1024 or 2048 | 15:08 |
| markturnip | geirha, yup, it's definitely powered up fine. | 15:09 |
| ice_cream | or to put my question another way.. i think the problem is anti-aliasing --> how do i turn that off? (cli please) | 15:09 |

| newbe1 | hi | 15:10 |
| karol^ | is there some easy way to update intel gma driver in hardy to xf86-video-intel-2.3.1 without breaking stuff? | 15:10 |
| geirha | markturnip: then unplug the usb, and plug it back in. Then run "dmesg" in a terminal and see what it says. Possibly paste it to a pastebin | 15:10 |
| newbe1 | any one from IL | 15:10 |
| gnomefreak | karol^: not likely | 15:10 |
| stormzen | thanks, genii. I've used ionice to put the shell requests at supposedly 'idle' level, restricted bwlimit to 150, and blocksize to 1024. Appreciate the help. | 15:10 |
| entropy51423 | I have a problem with a script that is one line, but it starts a new x session and is supposed to start a game in the x session, but only starts the x session | 15:10 |
| entropy51423 | I will show you the script | 15:11 |
| genii | stormzen: np | 15:11 |
| geirha | markturnip: if you connect the usb cable before the drive is powered up, the system won't detect that it is a harddrive | 15:11 |
| karol^ | gnomefreak: will they update it at some point or do I have to wait for new distro release? | 15:11 |
| entropy51423 | xinit /media/disk/UrbanTerror/ioUrbanTerror.i386 $* -- :1 > /dev/null | 15:11 |

| C0p3rn1c | what can cause ubuntu to randomly go into low-grafic mode?(I have rebooted several times without changing anything) | 15:12 |
| gnomefreak | if not there than not likely to happen. I suggest filing a bug that you want it backported against project hardy backports | 15:12 |
| gnomefreak | C0p3rn1c: your xorg.conf | 15:13 |

| maxrogers | sipior: http://pastebin.com/m5a3c33b5 | 15:13 |
| gnomefreak | C0p3rn1c: you asked what can cause it and i told you. most likely its not set up correctly for the driver you are using. not sure what you upgraded though | 15:13 |
| entropy51423 | Can anyone help with this script, it is supposed to start a game in a new x session, but instead only starts a new x session, here is the script: xinit /media/disk/UrbanTerror/ioUrbanTerror.i386 $* -- :1 > /dev/null | 15:14 |

| C0p3rn1c | gnomefreak, i have done a complete system update a while back, but today my linux box isnt connected to my lan | 15:17 |
| markturnip | geirha, it's a powered USB 2.5 interface. I have a spare 5v AC adapter. So I've plugged it in, then waited a few seconds, then the USB. This doesn't show up in Disk Utility on my mac, however it knows the interface is there in the system profiler.... In Ubuntu, It shows as an unmounted drive. I ran dmesg and the last line is: Attached SCSI generic sg2 type 0 | 15:17 |

| bluey | hi | 15:18 |
| sipior | maxrogers: yeah, having two gateways in the routing table can be problematic :-) can you at least access the other network over the wire after you plug it in? | 15:18 |
| bluey | i have a question | 15:18 |
| entropy51423 | What is a good IRC for Unix commands help? | 15:18 |
| geirha | markturnip: And if you open gparted, can you select it in the dropdown box? | 15:18 |

| jeeez | hey, how do i install CUDA? i've downloaded .run files, not able to do anything with them! some pls help | 15:19 |
| sipior | maxrogers: okay, looks like the only problem is that an extra gateway gets added to the routing table when you plug the ethernet cable in. could you pastebin the contents of /etc/network/interfaces? | 15:20 |
| genii | jeeez: sudo chmod +x name-of-file.run then ./name-of-file.run | 15:20 |
| markturnip | geirha, it spends along time scanning, then doesn't appear in the drop down. | 15:20 |
| bluey | can i make ubuntu take a iso file as a source for upgrading my system? | 15:21 |
| jeeez | genii: thanks! | 15:21 |
| bluey | Please, someone help | 15:21 |
| IdleOne | bluey, you need to burn that iso to cd | 15:22 |
| oskude | bluey, you can just mount the iso | 15:22 |
| bluey | i mounted the iso using the mount script | 15:22 |
| entropy51423 | I have a script on a flash drive that should start a game in a new x session, the game is also on the same flash drive. It successfully starts the x session, but not the game. What could cause this? | 15:22 |
| geirha | markturnip: "sudo fdisk -l" does that command show it? | 15:22 |
| entropy51423 | Do you need the script as well | 15:22 |
| delfic1 | damit, looks like I'm gonna have to reinstall the whole os :( | 15:23 |

| genii | bluey: You should be able to, yes. | 15:24 |
| geirha | markturnip: Do you have sata ports in your machine? If so, try connecting it there and see if it shows up then. It may simply be that the harddrive is defective | 15:24 |

| santiago | guys i got a problem... I had windows installed on my computer with some very important files, but i wanted to have linux in one of my two drives so i tried to install it on the D: disc where i had no files when i was installing linux i chose to format that disc and to install it there anyways, when i enter into the grub theres no windows Xp option i only have ubuntu and some recovery modes | 15:26 |
| markturnip | mmm, thing is, it's a IDE laptop. I had SATA in my iMac, but the batty thing had no access to it! There's only one laptop with SATA - which my Mother is using at the moment. You think that may be the last option? Otherwise could the disk be bad? - It is brand new? (could it really be defect?) | 15:26 |
| maxrogers | sipior: I did most of that so anything can go/change I don't need anything to be static unless you think it should | 15:26 |

| geirha | markturnip: last time I bought a harddrive, I also bought an external case for it to connect it to usb. I got similar results as you, and my drive turned out to be defective (didn't work even when I connected it directly to the motherboard) | 15:28 |
| sipior | maxrogers: you can either modify your dhcp server so that it doesn't give out a default gateway, or just make the entry in /etc/network/interfaces static. | 15:29 |
| sipior | maxrogers: (the entry for eth0, i mean) | 15:29 |

| santiago | anurdh0: what do u mean by that? (i'm new at linux) | 15:30 |
| sipior | maxrogers: in fact, just deleting the default route associated with eth0 should allow both connections to work. you'll want to modify the interfaces file so you don't have to do this everytime, though :-) | 15:31 |
| maxrogers | sipior: similar to what I did on my wireless (wlan0) ? | 15:31 |
| snarkster | capricorn800: sorry to hear that, I cant help you but i got error 22 yesturday, now Im just limping along.. | 15:31 |

| el_Nacho | i'm currently running xubuntu hardy live cd and want to install the os but during the process at about 64% it always stopps. my cd or the drive might be broken ... | 15:46 |
| el_Nacho | is there a way to tell the installation to just download the software instead of trying to read the cd? | 15:46 |
| el_Nacho | help! :) | 15:46 |
| lakis1982 | my bandwith is very good | 15:46 |
| FloodBot1 | el_Nacho: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:46 |
| lakis1982 | i told you .. i can see videos very smoothly in normal screen | 15:46 |
| BonezAU | wols, I didnt add anything last time, I just used qgrubeditor to remove all old entries (eg, when i get a new kernel and am happy with it I remove the old ones) | 15:46 |
| sipior | maxrogers: well, the netmask and broadcast should be the same for every host | 15:46 |
| wols | lakis1982: and I told you what is most likely wrong | 15:46 |

| el_Nacho | can someone help me, need to know how to tell the installation to get the software from the internet and NONt from the cd ... | 15:47 |
| wols | BonezAU: I jsut told you. uninstall the old kernels | 15:47 |
| geirha | BonezAU: the "best" way to remove kernel entries is to uninstall the kernel packages (except the kernels you want to have in the list of course) | 15:47 |

| geirha | BonezAU: the update-grub script depends on the comment-lines ### BEGIN AUTOMAGIC... and ###END AUTOMAGIC... When you run the script it removes all entries between those comments, and adds all currently installed kernels | 15:49 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297261 capricorn800 | 15:50 |

| BonezAU | geirha, thank you, i've just removed all of them except .19 and .20, i will rerun update-grub and then add my vista entry | 15:50 |
| xirov | wols, ive already tried it.. What about the other 2 files? | 15:51 |
| geirha | BonezAU: make sure you add the vista entry, either before or after the comment-lines I mentioned earlier, or update-grub will remove it again | 15:51 |
| sipior | maxrogers: no trouble, hope you get it up and running. | 15:51 |

| geirha | Guest9569: You'll also need dns come to think of it, can you find the dns servers you are currently using in windows? | 16:11 |
| Drk_Guy | Digg, Weird, does suse put any kind of lock into swap drive? | 16:11 |

| entropy51423 | game | 16:24 |
| m0u5e | ndumac: well if you type ifconfig eth0 | grep -i HWaddr you get the mac address for your eth0 device | 16:24 |

| OsamaK_ | Hello! I created a new user using System -> Administration -> Users and Groups -> Add user -> Inserting username and password -> OK. How to make this users a 'limited account' (In Windows XP) who can edit, view files but not install programs, using sudo.. etc | 16:28 |
| entropy51423 | bye | 16:28 |
| Gnea | OsamaK_: that's the beauty of it - user accounts are limited accounts by default | 16:29 |
| m0u5e | OsamaK_: i think thats just "desktop user" | 16:29 |
| m0u5e | OsamaK_: unless you specify administrator, his account doesnt get added into sudoers i think | 16:29 |
| Gnea | OsamaK_: the *only* administrator account will ever be root | 16:29 |
| Apollo_ | err? | 16:29 |
| m0u5e | Gnea: "administrators" are added into sudoers though | 16:30 |
| m0u5e | Gnea: which serves pretty much the same purpose :) | 16:30 |
| Gnea | m0u5e: correct, but the account itself never gets a uid/gid of 0 :) | 16:30 |

| Xman | can anyone plz tell me that how can i rescue my ubuntu gutsy? | 16:50 |
| C0p3rn1c | cool, sorry I misread you question, pmount is for connectiong usb drives | 16:50 |
| Gnea | dimitri: your best bet is to not edit the file directly, but to use the network configuration GUI | 16:50 |
| ASULutzy | Xman: what do you mean by rescue, what's the problem with it? | 16:50 |
| dimitri | Gnea: you speaking about manual configuration of net utility | 16:51 |
| Odd-rationale | Blais1: that looks fine... can you install packages with apt-get? | 16:51 |
| Blais1 | Odd-rationale: Yes, just tried that | 16:51 |

| Odd-rationale | Blais1: can you do "sudo aptitude update? | 16:52 |
| mamooth | plop | 16:52 |
| dimitri | my interfaces file has the eth0 configuration only | 16:52 |
| Blais1 | Odd-rationale: yes, that works well | 16:53 |
| Xman | ASULutzy: it says "could not find device for /boot: not found or not a device" | 16:53 |
| Odd-rationale | Blais1: so just "sudo apt-get update" doesn't work... ? | 16:53 |
| Blais1 | Odd-rationale: yes, that seems to be the case | 16:53 |
| Blais1 | Odd-rationale: E: Problem executing scripts APT::Update::Post-Invoke-Success 'touch /var/lib/apt/periodic/update-success-stamp 2>/dev/null || true' | 16:54 |

| mamooth | I can't figure how to reload table partition after having added a new part with fdisk. fdisk -l could map it, but it's not present in /dev/ . Is there any way to reload the table without rebooting ? | 16:54 |
| jarjarsphyn1 | what is another rpm converter other than alien, becuase i dont have the cd and it says you need the cd to install alien | 16:54 |
| SeveredCross | jarjarsphyn1: Just disable the CD in System -> Administration -> Software Sources. | 16:54 |
| Gnea | jarjarsphyn1: no you don't, just change your repository to use the internet | 16:54 |
| SeveredCross | You may need universe/multiverse for alien though, not sure. | 16:55 |
| geirha | mamooth: the table will only be updated without rebooting if no partitions on that drive is mounted when you partition it | 16:55 |
| geirha | mamooth: so if / is on that drive, you have to reboot | 16:55 |
| mamooth | geirha, ho, ok thx, so I-ve had to reboot :) | 16:55 |
| mamooth | thanks geirha :p | 16:56 |
| Odd-rationale | Blais1: i don't know about this one... sorry. one thing you might try is use aptitude to reinstall apt... | 16:56 |
| jarjarsphyn1 | Gnea: how do i do that | 16:56 |
| Blais1 | Odd-rationale: ok, thanks for the help | 16:56 |
| Odd-rationale | Blais1: let me know if that fixes it, if you decide to try that... | 16:56 |
| Gnea | jarjarsphyn1: system->adninistration->synaptic | 16:56 |
| Xman | ASULutzy: r u there? | 16:57 |
| ASULutzy | jarjarsphyn1: Click system -> administration -> software sources, and change your sources from cd to internet, then you can just sudo apt-get install alien, but I'd make sure that there's not a debian installer first before you use alien | 16:57 |

| ejsilver26 | Sidd: Yup. Dell Inspiron 1000 (please stop laughing...) | 17:46 |

| Nutzebahn | Hello. What sudo blkid said does not match fstab, what should I do? Do you think there is any way to have it rewrite fstab properly? | 17:47 |
| devil | ej have you tried sudo apt-get update and upgrade then sudo apt-get --reinstall install alsa | 17:47 |
| ejsilver26 | Sidd: It worked perfectly with 7.10. Aparently other people have had the same issue and have fixed it. I've been following what it has said on various sites, but nothing has worked. | 17:47 |
| Gnea | devil: i think you're thinking about aptitude, since apt-get doesn't support the --reinstall option | 17:48 |
| Sidd | ejsilver26: Did you do an upgrade through synaptic or a clean install? | 17:48 |
| ejsilver26 | devil: I have done those commands, yup. Several times. | 17:48 |
| artagnon | I want to moiunt my lvm parititions on livecd | 17:48 |
| artagnon | how do I do it? | 17:48 |
| ejsilver26 | Sidd: Synaptic. It told be it was available and I went for it. | 17:48 |
| devil | hmm | 17:48 |
| Gnea | ejsilver26: i would try the livecd, just to make sure the hardware still works right | 17:48 |
| mysticdarkhack | ejsilver26 it would be a good idea or option to just install hardy fresh and all might work | 17:49 |
| artagnon | ubuntu livecd doesn't seem to have lvm support | 17:49 |
| Sidd | ejsilver26: Try the Hardy LiveCD and see if the stuff in the "examples" folder play correctly | 17:49 |
| ejsilver26 | Gnea: I still have my 7.10 live CD. I should probably do that. perhaps I will. | 17:49 |
| devil | you probably have to change your kernel | 17:49 |
| devil | a kernel that supports your sound card | 17:49 |
| ejsilver26 | mysticdarkhack: True... but that would mean admiting defeat! Can't do that. | 17:49 |
| Gnea | ejsilver26: or just make an 8.04 cd and try that ;) | 17:49 |
| devil | or use the kernel you had before ? | 17:49 |
| mysticdarkhack | although kernel 2.6.24 doesn't like my machine but I manage to compile 2.6.24 | 17:49 |
| mysticdarkhack | I meant 2.6.26 | 17:50 |
| tkach | I'm adding a network printer (Canon MF311) but the driver isn't listed among the canon models list. It "recommends" the "Bj-5 Foomatic" driver, should I just go with that? | 17:50 |
| Sidd | ejsilver26: Actually, that'd be more like getting a fresh army? :p | 17:50 |
| Sidd | tkach: No | 17:50 |
| Gnea | tkach: try it and see if it prints the test page | 17:50 |
| Sidd | tkach: I have an Canon Mf8180C and it recommends that. Your printer isn't supported, no matter how much you try :-( | 17:50 |
| bonespur | hi..i just connected my camera usb to my ubuntu box..but it is not detected..any thoughts on how to get it working?? | 17:50 |
| Sidd | tkach: Mine had no drivers available for linux anywhere at all | 17:50 |
| tkach | Sidd so I'm SOL with that | 17:51 |
| Sidd | tkach: the bj series are completely different | 17:51 |
| Sidd | tkach: What's SOL? | 17:51 |
| ejsilver26 | Gnea: If the live CD for 8.04 works, than it's something to note. | 17:51 |
| devil | I would try different models til I found the best one then configure it the best I can | 17:51 |
| ejsilver26 | Sidd: A replacement army still needs to be trained... bah.. this analogy is dying fast. | 17:51 |

Nothing ahppens, nothign will install. | 17:54 |
| ejsilver26 | devil: Ah.. ok... sec... can't kill the system, right? :) | 17:54 |
| devil | try that then update upgrade and reinstall alsa | 17:54 |
| devil | then reboot | 17:54 |
| m0u5e | there needs to be a system package integrity checker | 17:55 |
| mysticdarkhack | <hyperair>no it not intrepid kernel, I compile my kernel. The newest kernel has the latest update and new modules | 17:55 |
| m0u5e | to see if a package has been installed incorrectly, or if the files in an app have become corrupted | 17:55 |

| Sydero | Tranmission is fast | 18:11 |
| Sydero | changing clients won't help | 18:11 |
| DRebellion | Sydero, exactly. | 18:11 |
| Sydero | you have to know how to setup it up properly | 18:11 |
| Gnea | Sydero: then show cr0w what to do. | 18:12 |
| danand | Nutzebahn - don't give a download link, just post the plain pastebin address to your info :) | 18:12 |
| Sydero | he's ignoring me | 18:12 |
| Gnea | that's not our problem. | 18:12 |
| ejsilver26 | Sidd: What's wrong with Vista? *duck and cover* He he he | 18:12 |
| Sidd | Sydero: Yeah, but from my experience it is easier to set up uTorrent. The higher your upload cap, the higher your download speed. | 18:12 |
| Zillios | I installed a simple mud client using wine and i've noticed a significant difference that how it is with my xp box. I was wondering wine worked well with heavy games like WoW, or Warcraft3:FT | 18:12 |

| Sidd | ejsilver26: I never said anything was wrong with it, I just said I wasn't converting any user :p IMO, Vista is great, as is any other operating system out there | 18:12 |
| DRebellion | Zillios, apparently, wine runs wow very well. | 18:13 |

| ZmAY | can someone help me connect phone to PC, to transfer data | 18:14 |
| Sidd | DRebellion: Fair enough, but I was explaining how to increase speed using uTorrent, which I found easy to do (I used to get 3-10KB/s, and a simple trick got me to 100-200KB/s, believe it or not) | 18:14 |

| deadbeef | Hi, I have a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop with a flash memory card reader. I have an old 64 mb card that works (tested on multiple readers on Windows) and a 1GB card. The weird thing is, Ubuntu's driver mounts the 1 GB card, but it can't see the 64 mb card. Anyone ever see this? | 18:15 |
| twocarlo_ | Sidd: True... I like them all i also use both of it | 18:15 |

| Sidd | ejsilver26: Hah, I find dual/triple/etc booting a little strange, it seems a bit "impure" :-p | 18:16 |
| Zillios | DRebellion, its probably the only reason why I haven't changed my main OS to ubuntu, fear of having problems with it. Is there anything I should be aware between WoW and wine? How about ventrilo? | 18:16 |
| Sydero | trashguy: PAE makes your PC unstable | 18:16 |

| Sidd | Trashguy: I don't know about you, but to me, it just seems a little more supported and live, as well as snappier since it doesn't have to load executables which are larger, but that just might be my paranoia | 18:17 |
| Sidd | Zillios: No, only 3.1GB is | 18:17 |
| SNuxoll | Sidd: the desktop kernel doesn't have PAE enabled | 18:17 |
| SNuxoll | Sidd: you need the server kernel for that | 18:17 |
| Sidd | Gnea: I'm pretty sure at boot time there is a flag like PAE=4GB or something which you can add to recognize 4GB | 18:17 |
| trashguy | yea if u dont run PAE you will only see 3.5gb | 18:17 |
| Gnea | trashguy: okay, you're right about that - i was thinking of the PAE workaround in m$ earlier - sorry. but 4GB is the limit to 32bit ubuntu. | 18:17 |

| SNuxoll | Sydero: it all depends if the app can take advantage of 64bit math really | 18:22 |
| deadbeef | so 64-bit chips still have all the 32-bit framework? i.e., no translation is done to 32-bit instructions? | 18:22 |
| Sydero | yeah | 18:22 |
| Sidd | deadbeef: lol, the only difference is seen when you do something which requires intense calculations; the 64-bit version would run faster than the 32bit (From what I've read) | 18:22 |

| Sydero | yeah = agree | 18:22 |
| deadbeef | I thought it added an extra layer of indirection | 18:22 |
| trashguy | seems to be the sanest way | 18:22 |
| jazzkutya | Flannel: i use java un 64bit but SNuxoll said there is some problem with it | 18:22 |
| SNuxoll | deadbeef: all x86_64 is x86 with 64bit support tacked on | 18:22 |
| SNuxoll | naftilos76: are you using Ubuntu or Kubuntu? | 18:22 |
| Sidd | Trashguy: Why do you need that 4GB extra anywys? | 18:23 |
| deadbeef | neato | 18:23 |
| trashguy | Sidd, why not? | 18:23 |
| deadbeef | it's nice for a VM | 18:23 |
| Nutzebahn | This is important. | 18:23 |
| trashguy | its plugged in | 18:23 |
| trashguy | Sidd, i run a few vms from time to time | 18:23 |
| SNuxoll | more than 4GB is also useful when you are doing some heavy compiling | 18:23 |
| thebishop | Firefox closes unexpectedly when opening flash files, and it works after i reload the session.. what's up with that? | 18:23 |
| wols | trashguy: from what I remember there is no WINE 64bit version. ie WINE is not a 64bit windows | 18:23 |
| naftilos76 | <SNuxoll> Sorry man, don't mind me.....i found it... | 18:23 |
| deadbeef | what are the minimum requirements in terms of ram for XP? | 18:23 |
| deadbeef | like 256 mb? | 18:23 |
| Gnea | the memory is plugged in, it's just going to wate if it's not being used - might as well throw it in a kegger | 18:23 |
| SNuxoll | deadbeef: they say 256mb | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | how well does it run on 512? | 18:24 |
| naftilos76 | <SNuxoll> thanks! | 18:24 |
| wols | deadbeef: ##windows for windows questions | 18:24 |
| Sydero | 256 is not min | 18:24 |
| trashguy | wols, yes, but im trying to recompil;e my own patched version | 18:24 |
| SNuxoll | deadbeef: but it's more like 1GB these days, with all the extra stuff you have to run | 18:24 |
| Sydero | 256 is recommended | 18:24 |
| Sidd | trashguy: I don't know, I've got 4GB (3.1Gb recognized) and I use VirtualBox with XP with 2GB memory quite well | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | I see | 18:24 |
| SNuxoll | naftilos76: no problem | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | just wondered how much to give it | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | in a VM | 18:24 |
| Sydero | give it 512 | 18:24 |
| Sydero | well depends | 18:24 |
| Sydero | on what you run in it | 18:24 |
| SNuxoll | naftilos76: that's what I'm here for :) | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | yeah | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | Visual Studio and Photoshop | 18:24 |
| deadbeef | probably a gb | 18:24 |
| SNuxoll | deadbeef: visual studio needs a GB alone | 18:24 |

| Wallgod | Sidd, Hi again... I have followed the instructions and rebooted. The network icon shows 76% connected | 18:26 |
| deadbeef | anyway, back to my question: does anyone know why Ubuntu won't mount a 64 MB SD card, but will have no problem mounting a 1 GB SD card? (the 64 MB one works, for sure) | 18:26 |
| naftilos76 | <SNuxoll> Just imigrated from fedora 8-9 kde to ubuntu 8.04....don't mind me.... | 18:26 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, But it doesnt connect to the internet | 18:26 |
| wols | !errors < deadbeef | 18:26 |
| ubottu | wols: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 18:26 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, Do u think i m doing something wrong | 18:26 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: That's strange | 18:26 |
| trashguy | compiling own kernel for the loss its nice not having to recompile every update | 18:26 |
| deadbeef | !errors | 18:26 |
| m0u5e | so anyone know why my fast find for nautilus isn't working? | 18:26 |
| ubottu | If you have problems or errors, you will need to describe/paste them. Please use the !pastebin for errors that cannot be quoted in a single IRC message | 18:26 |
| wols | !errors | deadbeef | 18:26 |
| ubottu | deadbeef: please see above | 18:26 |
| mibocote | Sydero: I did try that, that is what caused the problem to start | 18:26 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: No, mine says 35% and it works | 18:26 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, Oh.... | 18:27 |
| Sydero | try reinstalling it :P | 18:27 |
| m0u5e | does anyone have problems with fast find for nautilus | 18:27 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, that means the installation has gone right | 18:27 |
| Sydero | then uninstalling | 18:27 |
| m0u5e | where yout ry to type a file name so it selects that file name | 18:27 |
| m0u5e | but nothing happens? | 18:27 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: Yeah, 76% is the signal strength | 18:27 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, maybe i should do something about the manual config | 18:27 |
| deadbeef | ah, it's not really an error wols. "nothing happens" when you insert the 64 MB card, there's nothing to paste :o unless there is a log somewhere? I dont' know where though | 18:27 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: Yeah, check if you need a specific proxy to be used on firefox, etc | 18:27 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, i had first put WPA 2 Personal and then WEP | 18:28 |
| mibocote | Sydero: I tried reinstalling it and it gives the same error | 18:28 |
| Dedi | anyone managed to get ubuntu-modules running with a custom compiled kernel? (what i did yet: http://tinyurl.com/5szfrd ) | 18:28 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, do u think its got something to do with that | 18:28 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: No, if you're connected, that should have nothing to do with it | 18:28 |
| Sidd | wallgod: What does it say when you open Firefox? | 18:28 |
| cratel | I like the hidden taskbar in Gnome (Hardy) but it takes too long to show up and appears too slowly when I put my cursor over it. Any way to make that appearing faster? | 18:28 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, couldnt find server etc.. | 18:28 |
| RxDx | was the problem that reduces the hd life-time already fixed? | 18:28 |
| Wallgod | Sidd, the stuff it shows when we connect without the internet connection working | 18:28 |
| trashguy | cratel do you have an Nvidia card? | 18:29 |
| === intreq1 is now known as intreq | ||

| naftilos76 | <SNuxoll> do you happen to know subtitleeditor app? if i right click on a str file the respective app opens up but it does not load the subtitles...if i manually open the app and use the open menu and stuff...it open subtitles just fine....any idea why this is happening? it even happens when i try to open a susbtitles file through the terminal...that is... if i type "subtitleeditor file.str" the only thing that happens is that the app | 18:30 |
| naftilos76 | opens up but no subtitles file is opened... | 18:30 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: Ok let's try this: Go to Firefox-> Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced (The gear icon) -> Network (it's a tab) -> "Settings" button | 18:30 |
| cratel | trashguy: no, it's Intel. video is fast and 3D accel works fine. | 18:30 |
| Wallgod | Sidd ok | 18:30 |
| Sidd | Wallgod: Do that and tell me what option is selected (e.g. direct connection to the internet, etc) | 18:30 |

| jazzkutya | xFlipx: you can try amarok | 19:02 |
| mahesh | karan:: iam skilled in those and iam also ready to learn new languages..so help | 19:02 |
| xFlipx | jazzkutya, yeah tried it - sucks just the same. :( | 19:03 |
| Karan | ... | 19:03 |
| entropy51423 | Okay, is metacity a WM? | 19:03 |
| Starnestommy | entropy51423: it is | 19:03 |
| jazzkutya | xFlipx: what's you problem with rhythmbox and amarok? my problem was missing the possibility to select sound output | 19:03 |
| jazzkutya | xFlipx: amarok solved this one | 19:03 |
| entropy51423 | Okay, I can use xinit /usr/bin/metacity and it would start metacity in a seperate x? | 19:03 |
| xFlipx | randomly disconnecting from streams - not responding to inputs - etc etc... just all around crappy software. | 19:04 |
| Mr_Giraffe | entropy51423, metacity is a WM, like fluxbox (more lightweight, no icons) | 19:04 |
| Mr_Giraffe | however, GNOME is not | 19:04 |
| entropy51423 | xFlipx: What do you mean | 19:04 |
| trashguy | isnt metacity gnome | 19:05 |
| trashguy | ... | 19:05 |
| trashguy | essentially | 19:05 |
| simplexio | xFlipx: try mplayer and vlc | 19:05 |
| mahesh | karan:: post ur ideas for me...http://magesh.freehostia.com/myboard/ | 19:05 |
| Starnestommy | trashguy: no, it is part of gnome | 19:05 |
| SeveredCross | metacity is gnome-s minimalistic window manager. | 19:05 |
| xFlipx | entropy51423, I'm speaking about rhythmbox - not metacity the WM. | 19:05 |

| wols | Schnook: you can differentiate by MAC | 19:10 |
| erUSUL | abadr: use cron (or is the script a daemon?) | 19:10 |
| nkriz | can someone help me create a share folder to use over a network? | 19:10 |
| erUSUL | !cron | abadr | 19:10 |
| ubottu | abadr: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm | 19:10 |
| entropy51423 | When I used xinit /usr/bin/metacity it gave me this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/31382/plain/ | 19:10 |
| genii | Schnook: It doesn't randomly assign. It starts at the highe end of the range you gave and counts downwards | 19:11 |
| entropy51423 | Any clues as how to start a new x with Metacity? | 19:11 |
| abadr | erUSUL: using cron makes it more complicated, because different input files take different amount of time to process | 19:11 |
| deker | hi all, i need some help with automounting in /etc/fstab | 19:11 |
| deker | my boss created a credential file with his username and password | 19:11 |
| deker | he's trying to mount a samba share upon startup | 19:11 |
| entropy51423 | By default when you plug things into Ubuntu it mounts them | 19:11 |
| acp_ | mudzereli: you may check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiTroubleshooting | 19:11 |
| deker | the mount part works, but some directories that he is supposed to have access to do not open | 19:12 |
| mudzereli | I just want my wired connection before I even mess with wireless | 19:12 |
| Schnook | genii, can u help configure it to start from the lowest end of the range and count up? | 19:12 |
| mudzereli | or is the wireless easier? | 19:12 |
| deker | says permission denied | 19:12 |
| entropy51423 | How can I start a new x running Metacity? | 19:12 |
| cweagans | I have a Microsoft Optical Wheel Mouse (3 button) -- how do I get it to work in 8.04? I plug it in and the red light doesn't even come on -- I'm assuming it's probably a driver issue, but I have no idea how to fix it. | 19:12 |
| genii | Schnook: No, thats just the way it does it | 19:12 |
| deker | if he mounts it manually from the interface, under the places menu, it works fine | 19:12 |
| erUSUL | abadr: so your script is a daemon and you want it started with the system ? | 19:12 |

| cweagans | entropy51423, you want to start a separate X session? or you just want to switch to metacity? | 19:14 |
| erUSUL | abadr: move it to /etc/init.d/ make it executable and then add it with default conf to startup like this: «sudo update-rc.d scriptname defaults» | 19:14 |
| abadr | erUSUL: will it automatically restart if it crashes? | 19:14 |

| Gnea | Abed: what command? | 20:15 |
| Abed | sudo rmmod omnibook && sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14 | 20:15 |
| maybeway36 | GOTFrogqc: not much | 20:15 |
| EvilDennisR | Abed: add it to /etc/rc.local | 20:15 |
| maybeway36 | just have a live cd handy | 20:15 |
| Abed | Gnea sudo rmmod omnibook && sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14 | 20:15 |
| Flare183 | !who | maybeway36 | 20:15 |
| ubottu | maybeway36: 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 :) | 20:15 |
| Abed | thnx EvilDennisR | 20:15 |
| Gnea | Abed: no need. just add the option ectype=14 to /etc/modutils/ | 20:15 |
| EvilDennisR | Abed: rc.local is the last script to get run when the box starts up | 20:15 |
| GOTFrogqc | cool cause I wrecked my wondows, and don't want to have to redo linux too | 20:15 |
| krazy-h | You know i had many problems with Windows that why i leave it :D | 20:16 |
| Gnea | Abed: er, sorry that should be /etc/modprobe.d/options | 20:16 |
| GOTFrogqc | maybeway36 and how would I do that? | 20:16 |
| Abed | Gnea I edited rc.lcoal as EvilDennisR said | 20:17 |
| EvilDennisR | Abed: Yeah, if its modules and such then add it to modprobe.d | 20:17 |
| Abed | and i will see | 20:17 |
| EvilDennisR | Abed: fyi, if you keep it in rc.local you don't need sudo infront of the commands | 20:17 |
| Gnea | Abed: well, that's one way to do it. the modprobe.d method takes less time. | 20:17 |
| maybeway36 | GOTFrogqc: on a live CD termial: sudo grub root (name,of,ubuntu.partition) setup (hd0) | 20:17 |
| Abed | ok EvilDennisR thnx | 20:17 |
| Abed | Gnea after modprobe.d wut??? | 20:18 |
| Gnea | Abed: just edit the options file and add it toward the end. the syntax is easy to figure out if you look at the others there. | 20:18 |
| smaila | is there any linux drivers for huawei e220 hsdpa out there ? | 20:18 |
| LordDicranius | when checking the processes via command-line via "ps", what's the difference between processes with brackest and those that do not? | 20:18 |
| GOTFrogqc | ok thx | 20:18 |
| Abed | Gnea the problem is that after the reboot i type lsmod | grep omnibook and i see omnibook but it doesn't work until sudo rmmod omnibook && sudo modprobe omnibook ectype=14 | 20:19 |
| Gnea | Abed: i realize that. that's why, if you add the ectype=14 option to the options file, the system will automatically load it correctly, the first time, without having to reload it like that, and it will simply *work* | 20:20 |
| giacomo_carissim | i followed this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EncryptedHomeFolder and i think i didnt add the user to fuse and now i cannot login to my user account... how can i fix this? | 20:20 |
| Abed | Gnea how to add ectype = 14? | 20:20 |
| Gnea | Abed: as i explained: edit the /etc/modprobe.d/options file | 20:20 |
| Abed | Gnea ok but i dunno how!! | 20:21 |
| rconan | giacomo_carissim, boot to an elevated prompt then add your user to the group | 20:21 |
| rconan | giacomo_carissim, theres the recovery option in grub which should give you a root prompt | 20:21 |
| giacomo_carissim | rconan, im sorry, but im not exactly sure that that means | 20:21 |
| Gillpy | Abed: emacs ftw | 20:21 |
| Abed | Gillpy wut? | 20:21 |
| Gnea | Abed: nano, vim or emacs will do it - be sure to preceed with sudo | 20:21 |
| giacomo_carissim | rconan, i booted to root from grub | 20:21 |
| b\6 | what package provides GL/gl.h? | 20:22 |
| Abed | !emacs | 20:22 |

| fyre|work | smaila: yes, there are. | 20:22 |
| Gillpy | Abed: on second thoughts dont use emacs | 20:22 |
| Abed | Gnea i know but the syntax? | 20:22 |
| rconan | giacomo_carissim, do "gpasswd -a username groupname" | 20:22 |

| * delcoyote hi | 20:23 | |

| bttb | Hi all | 20:33 |
| demasrv | In order to get packet injection working with my iwl4965 driver I've been trying to upgrade my linux-headers to 2.6.26 | 20:33 |
| Gillpy | cruddpuppet: or try 'fuser /dev/dsp' | 20:34 |

| demasrv | and I installed them, but uname -r is still giving me the older headers even after restart | 20:34 |
| Flare183 | grindhold_: Oh Then that means that sh or bash didn't start, it alost means that your computer can't boot the live CD correctly | 20:34 |
| Vlet | sjovan: yeah, this isn't a production system... more of a 'trying some screwey stuff out' system ;) | 20:34 |
| cruddpuppet | Gillpy: Is that supposed to return any text ? | 20:34 |

| Abed | thnx a lot | 20:35 |
| sjovan | Vlet: but it looks like Starnestommy had a bether awnser for you | 20:35 |
| grindhold_ | Flare183: any idea for a reason of that? | 20:35 |
| Vlet | sjovan: agreed; trying that route instead :) | 20:35 |
| Flare183 | grindhold_: Old computer, bad cd, or bad CD-ROM drive | 20:35 |
| Gillpy | cruddpuppet: it's meant to return the PID of the process using /dev/dsp | 20:36 |

| Flare183 | grindhold_: Then it could be that the kernel can't boot on that computer (I have the similar problem, but with a computer that already has Ubuntu installed) | 20:37 |

| TiredWolf | blockhd: pastebin the output of "amixer" and i can try to guess what the right setting is, if any | 21:07 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: you cant do that from the repos you need to source and headers from kernel.org and you need to compile and instal the kernel | 21:07 |
| spiel_mit_feuer | well no one could give me an answer to my origional question so i asked another | 21:07 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: and the headers as well | 21:07 |
| Mr_Bad_News | um i installed stardict and now i keep getting this damn popup randomly | 21:07 |
| Mr_Bad_News | how do i turn that off | 21:08 |
| sjovan | seanh: aaaaa, f*ck. my bad :/ I rememberd incorectly. I think amarok and a lot of other music aps can add last.fm radiostations | 21:08 |
| spiongraz__ | demaserv: actually you could try out the 2.6.26 kernel, put in your sources.list instead of hardy intrepid everywhere | 21:08 |
| Mr_Bad_News | i dont see anything in prefs | 21:08 |
| spiongraz__ | but be warned this is highly experimental | 21:08 |
| sjovan | seanh: but i haven't tryed, so i'm not shure. google it :) | 21:08 |
| orgthingy | http://www.23hq.com/23666/3059572_ef7085c0ea60414640e563e5d20559a6_standard.jpg <<< how can i get this theme? it's a XFCE one though :( | 21:08 |
| seanh | sjovan, thanks I'll try a few | 21:08 |
| cypherdelic | ubuntu rockz | 21:08 |
| EvilDennisR | orgthingy: the icon theme? | 21:09 |
| nixnoob_ | spiongraz__: i tried to scare him with compiling and you give him the easy and extremely risky version, nice. | 21:09 |
| orgthingy | EvilDennisR: windows borders | 21:09 |
| blockhd | TiredWolf: http://pastebin.com/d6b4fdddd | 21:09 |
| spiongraz__ | i know nixnoob_ , hihi =) | 21:09 |
| blockhd | TiredWolf: http://pastebin.com/d6b4fdddd | 21:10 |
| nixnoob_ | spiongraz__: its not that he shouldnt be able to try it, its just that when he does you will be helping him undo the mess :) | 21:10 |
| demasrv | spiongraz: you mean put the 2.6.26 kernel in my sources.list? | 21:10 |
| spiongraz__ | umm sry demasrv | 21:11 |
| spiongraz__ | i was wrong | 21:11 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: he means to put the intrepid repo in your sources.list | 21:11 |
| spiongraz__ | forget what i said | 21:11 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: but you shouldnt do that | 21:11 |
| nixnoob_ | spiongraz__: lol | 21:11 |
| TiredWolf | blockhd: i don't think i see the right setting, unless it's "Analog Mix", but i doubt it | 21:11 |
| demasrv | not even to just get the headers? | 21:11 |
| === root is now known as Guest76730 | ||
| blockhd | nope its not | 21:11 |
| anachoret | how can i reset a user's settings to the ubuntu installation defaults? | 21:12 |
| EvilDennisR | Guest76730: Not the best idea to irc as root... | 21:12 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: i dont understand why do you need the new headers if you are not going to install the new kernel? | 21:12 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: they are useless unless you are using the new kernel | 21:12 |
| demasrv | If I want the new kernel I'd have to compile a vanilla kernel though wouldn't I | 21:12 |
| fyre|work | ...or you are compiling against another kernel version, but I doubt that's the case here. | 21:13 |
| === danieluccio is now known as hjkl | ||
| simotempler | what would be the 2nd best browser for linux after firefox? | 21:13 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: well like spiongraz__ said, you could just add the intrepid repos to your sources.list and get the deb pacakge but its risky because its not compiled for hardy | 21:13 |
| === matthew_ is now known as Talcite | ||
| demasrv | good chance of kernel panic | 21:13 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: i would advise against it, the only other option would be to compile from vanilla | 21:14 |
| TiredWolf | blockhd: another possibility is a program that steals the dsp output and writes it to a file, except the name of it escapes me right now. (alsa can possibly also do that, but i have no idea about the configuration to achieve it) | 21:14 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: im not sure what the changes are so i cant advise you on the chances of kernel panic | 21:14 |
| blockhd | oh | 21:14 |
| demasrv | have people had a lot of success using ubuntu compiling from vanilla? | 21:14 |
| danieluccio | !scan | 21:14 |

| simotempler | Anyone know what would be the 2nd best browser for linux after firefox as i want a 2nd one for my proxy settings? | 21:15 |
| spiongraz__ | in fact theres a tool that helps compiling kernel under ubuntu | 21:15 |
| spiongraz__ | google for kernelcheck | 21:15 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: i have used vanilla kernels before in ubunt without problems but YMMV make sure to use the .config from your current kernel, i think there are some patches to apply if u want a truly ubuntu kernel | 21:15 |
| spiongraz__ | but if you use 3d acceleration the chances are pretty high your drivers will be broken | 21:15 |
| TiredWolf | blockhd: i suppose that skype doesn't just have a function to send an audio file? | 21:16 |
| simotempler | wud opera be the 2nd best? | 21:16 |
| blockhd | TiredWold... i would like to sing for my friend | 21:16 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: spiongraz__ is right, most video drivers and wifi drivers will break because they arent supported yet | 21:16 |
| blockhd | and capture both audio from my mic and my Rythmbox music player | 21:16 |
| channeling | simote | 21:17 |
| demasrv | well I'll ggive it a shot, need to learn somehow right | 21:17 |
| nixnoob_ | demasrv: is there any reason why you need the new kernel specifically? | 21:17 |
| channeling | simotempler, Ekiga, maybe | 21:17 |
| TiredWolf | blockhd: well, do you absolutely have to do it real time, can't you pre-record the whole thing for him? | 21:17 |
| rocker | hi... guys. | 21:17 |
| blockhd | lol........ :D | 21:17 |
| simotempler | cheers thought that was voip? | 21:17 |
| blockhd | i sing over skype a lot of times | 21:17 |
| LinuxIST | how can delete the ssb kernel module completely? | 21:17 |
| blockhd | for fun, you know | 21:17 |
| rocker | I am really getting disappointed with my Lenovo 3000 N200 laptop.. | 21:17 |
| demasrv | I've been playing around with packet injection, but under the current kernel a certain kind of attack isn't working with my drivers | 21:17 |
| rocker | I have intel 965 .. chipset. | 21:18 |
| blockhd | its not so important to fix it, but id like to. | 21:18 |
| demasrv | but its working with the 2.6.26 | 21:18 |
| TiredWolf | blockhd, i can't say it's impossible, but at least it's not trivial. as much as i hate hardware solutions, an actual loop cable is a cheap solution | 21:18 |
| IcyPolecat | blockhd: TiredWolf sorry for wading in but jack would enable recording of both | 21:18 |
| spiritssight | Does any one know where I can get help with wine and running a simple program | 21:18 |
| channeling | simotempler, I was wrong. I meant Epiphany | 21:18 |
| Mr_Bad_News | can someone help me with tor | 21:18 |
| TiredWolf | IcyPolecat: i think he wants to "record" straight into Skype, though | 21:18 |
| rocker | but the display is not that great..I checked the X org logs and its loading vesa drivers. | 21:18 |
| Starnestommy | Mr_Bad_News: try asking in #tor | 21:18 |
| Mr_Bad_News | im completely new to it | 21:18 |
| nixnoob_ | LinuxIST: locate ssb.ko and use sudo rm | 21:18 |
| rocker | I changed the xorg.conf file and it is still now working... | 21:18 |
| simotempler | cheers | 21:18 |
| blockhd | but..... in windows it possible doing it with software | 21:18 |
| rocker | any idea how to make intel 965 work ? | 21:18 |
| Starnestommy | spiritssight: maybe in #wihehq | 21:18 |
| demasrv | Its with the iwl4965 drivers | 21:18 |
| blockhd | not with hw solutions | 21:18 |
| channeling | Mr_Bad_News, have you installed Privoxy? | 21:18 |
| TiredWolf | blockhd: how? | 21:19 |
| LinuxIST | nixnoob_, how can i find it | 21:19 |
| IcyPolecat | TiredWolf: blockhd: Yup but you can wire your inputs and virtual devices pretty much any which way | 21:19 |
| spiritssight | thanks very much | 21:19 |
| LinuxIST | or where can i find it? | 21:19 |
| nixnoob_ | LinuxIST: locate | 21:19 |
| TiredWolf | IcyPolecat: and then Skype can use JACK as in input device? or JACK works as an ALSA input? | 21:19 |
| Mr_Bad_News | no channeling | 21:19 |
| TiredWolf | s/in/an/ | 21:19 |
| Mr_Bad_News | do i need to? | 21:19 |
| blockhd | oh...... | 21:19 |
| blockhd | you mean jack.... :) | 21:19 |
| demasrv | Anyway, I'll try kernelcheck. Thanks for the help. | 21:20 |

| EvilDennisR | soliban: Most likely those written in fstab are wrong.. | 21:21 |
| soliban | wow... | 21:21 |
| EvilDennisR | soliban: and I don't _think_ grub can use the UUID, but I'm not sure | 21:21 |

| channeling | xz- to install ubuntu you have to create a partions formatted in ext3 for your Ubuntu and set the mointpoint to / | 21:43 |
| leveld | erUSUL: probably, I'll let him know | 21:43 |
| grindhold_ | okay thx, rconan | 21:43 |

| sugi | Gnea: How do you bring up "Display" from the terminal? It should still be there *installed with Hardy*? | 21:44 |
| channeling | xz- then you have to create a swap artition, which you simply make as swap and it should be as great as your RAM | 21:44 |

| unop | LinuxIST, have you seen this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 23:00 |
| deadbeef | er machine name | 23:00 |
| crimsun | LinuxIST: it definitely works with ndiswrapper. | 23:01 |
| crimsun | LinuxIST: and /should/ work with current b43. | 23:01 |
| mbrigdan | hey, are the forums down? I get a 503 error when I try to view the page. | 23:01 |
| unop | deadbeef, setup a DNS server or add the hostnames you want resolving to /etc/hosts | 23:01 |
| deadbeef | oh snap | 23:01 |
| LinuxIST | crimsun, nope ndiswrapper disable the irq | 23:01 |
| deadbeef | I thought it would be easy :X | 23:01 |
| LinuxIST | and b43 drivers causes a freeze | 23:01 |
| unop | deadbeef, /etc/hosts is quick and easy | 23:01 |
| trigpin | mbrigdan: yes i think they are , or atleast very slow | 23:02 |
| arooni | say i want to print 4 open office documents... is there a faster way than opening each of them, and selecting print? | 23:02 |
| crimsun | LinuxIST: interesting. It definitely worked on the machine I tried yesterday. | 23:02 |
| Nocturrrnal | deadbeef: unop's method is way less work, but i know it's possible automatically... search for winbind | 23:02 |
| LinuxIST | crimsun, you have the bmc 4319 | 23:02 |
| LinuxIST | ? | 23:02 |
| deadbeef | ty unop, I'll google around | 23:02 |
| deadbeef | unop, this is a per-linux-machine solution yes? | 23:03 |
| gutonjusa | any BR here | 23:03 |
| trigpin | forums are fine now just looked | 23:03 |
| crimsun | LinuxIST: on another machine, yes. | 23:03 |
| LinuxIST | what machine | 23:03 |
| LinuxIST | ? | 23:03 |
| unop | deadbeef, well, you can share /etc/hosts using something like NIS/NIS+ .. but usually it is a per machine setup, yes | 23:03 |
| deadbeef | thank you sir | 23:03 |
| deadbeef | hopefully I won't kill my install | 23:03 |

| trigpin | zvacet: don't apologize you have already been a great help =) | 23:08 |
| unop | deadbeef, use a name resolution server like bind (dns) or winbind (netbios) | 23:09 |
| zvacet | trigpin : O.K. then | 23:09 |
| deadbeef | I'll try, ty again | 23:09 |
| unop | deadbeef, i'd say use the latter -- as name resolution is automatic -- with DNS, the clients need to update the server on their hostnames | 23:10 |
| deadbeef | so NetBIOS is the best choice? | 23:10 |
| unop | only with windows machine or unix machines running nmbd | 23:10 |
| deadbeef | ty for the help | 23:11 |

| Blaqlight | Ruben: then yes your going to need crossover. | 23:57 |
| XStylus | Any way to derrive and usefulness from that? | 23:57 |
| mohshami | GT1: :), well, the thing is ALL sound blocks till I kill pidgin, but pidgin won't get sound back till I restart X | 23:57 |
| XStylus | and -> any | 23:57 |
| fyre|work | XStylus: never heard of it tbh, I used that wiki entry when I had the AD as PDC and just adjusted it as I went along, and I was not one to complain when we completely got rid of AD. | 23:58 |

| GT1 | mohshami - I really don't know what to tell you, but it might work to go into Preferences > Sound and switch everything away from Pulse. | 23:59 |
| fyre|work | XStylus: are you trying to setup just a SSO for your linux machines that authenticates against AD? Or is this the first step to something more ... grand. | 23:59 |
| mohshami | GT1: I really appreciate your help, the thing is, there is no pulse option in pidgin | 23:59 |
