| debCarlos | soundray: ok... anyway to avoid that fan problem? | 00:01 |
| chuy_max | histo, im googling how to, thanks | 00:02 |
| Tumie | does a offtopic of the #ubuntu channel exists ?? | 00:02 |
| alraune | VexiK: sudo apt-remove --purge <packagename> | 00:02 |
| soundray | debCarlos: it's not a typical problem. Just an example for a failure which would show in rapidly increasing temperatures. | 00:02 |
| soundray | Tumie: yes | 00:02 |
| histo | bazookatooth: and it won't run in wine ... well You can run your current xp install in a vm but its a pita because of the changing hardware. There are howtos on the net if you google. You need to do something with the hardware profiles in the registry. | 00:02 |
| Flannel | Tumie: #ubuntu-offtopic, yes | 00:02 |
| alraune | VexiK: just came in , what ati prob ? | 00:02 |
| debCarlos | soundray: oh, ok... it scared me a bit :) | 00:03 |
| histo | chuy_max: there are wiihack and wiidev irc channels on efnet I believe | 00:03 |

| chuy_max | histo, roger, thanks, I will take a look at both channels | 00:03 |
| soundray | debCarlos: one thing you should check for is how your hard disk behaves when you're on battery power. If it powercycles every minute or so, it's using a manufacturer-selected mode that will eventually harm it. | 00:03 |
| histo | chuy_max: wiihacks.blogspot.com may be a worth a look. I know you can use it as a pointer but you need an ir LED of somekind for reference. | 00:04 |
| AlgorithmicContr | !networking | 00:04 |

| CarlFK | what is the debconf thing that re-builds xorg.conf? | 00:06 |
| TiredWolf | !xconfig | CarlFK | 00:06 |
| ubottu | CarlFK: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes | 00:06 |
| CarlFK | TiredWolf: bingo. thanks | 00:06 |
| unop | CarlFK, if you're using a newer version of xorg .. the command is unlikely to do much for you | 00:07 |

| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 00:07 |
| soundray | CarlFK: that's for 7.10 and earlier. If you're on hardy, use 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk' | 00:07 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Yeah, i have been doing some hard (almost know all about hds now) research about that "problem" :) | 00:08 |

| soundray | caitsith: yes -- unless you install to a non-LVM root partition, in which case you can setup LVM post-hoc | 00:09 |
| RequinB4 | Loganhoup: right click it | 00:09 |
| Eyes`Only | soundray: i noticed that dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg did very little but didn't know there was a new method. THanks! | 00:09 |

| soundray | debCarlos: I think smartctl has modes where it destroys data during testing. Very heavy use of smartctl might damage the hardware, too, in the long run | 00:39 |

| TiredWolf | debCarlos: no, unless you run active tests with them. | 00:39 |
| darwin | rosegarden still tells me Jack isn't working I installed Jack and also linux-image-rt, what else could I do? | 00:40 |

| sytheticz | Well ubuntu just seems to randomly freeze, usually alot more when on second life, but it also does it when its just on desktop, I did a RAM test and there were no errors. I switched graphics cards to my nvidia 7600 and it stopped freezing as frequently, but it still does it so much that I cannot use ubuntu for long periods of time. | 00:53 |
| soundray | VexiK: not ATI, the name of the open-source driver is lowercase ati | 00:53 |

| VexiK | soundray: safe to reboot :)? | 01:01 |
| CaptainMorgan | anyone know of how I can remove individual firefox cache's ? for example, I'm looking to remove only the single cache: www.domain.com and leave intact everything else.... the caches listed in .mozilla/profile/Cache does not on the face show these links, I'm onlyable to view them via about:cache in the browser... any ideas? | 01:01 |

| sytheticz | core tempreature, 59 degrees | 01:03 |

| maxhrk | a interesting bit though, it didnt have gksudo to nivida-settings. so assume that you are not in superuser when using it. So that why i added gksudo next to nvidia-settings command. | 01:03 |
| darwin | CaptainMorgan, why do you want to do that? you can us ctrl+F5 | 01:03 |
| === tot_to-drummond is now known as tottto-drummond | ||
| TiredWolf | cygoku: *probably* "rm -r $HOME/.Trash", but i can't bet on it, and given that removing stuff is always potentially dangerous... | 01:03 |
| darwin | that would refresh the page with out using cache | 01:03 |
| TiredWolf | andrei_: at which stage of the guide did "everything disappear"? | 01:04 |

| TiredWolf | no. | 01:11 |
| Vexiq | soundray: you still here? :) | 01:11 |
| perlmonkey | orgthingy: yes | 01:11 |
| TiredWolf | andrei_: hit ctrl+c, type "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list", remove the line that refers to the CD-ROM (probably the first), and type "sudo apt-get -f install" again | 01:11 |

| Vexiq | no | 01:13 |

| histo | Vexiq: Hey your getting close sry had to go take the dog for a walk. | 01:14 |
| darwin | I need help with jack and rosegarden | 01:14 |
| soundray | Vexiq: I suspect that the white screen problem is not graphics related | 01:14 |
| ace_suares | darwin: sorry, i don't understand that myself... yet! | 01:14 |
| histo | soundray: he needs to remove fglrx it was installed from restricted driver manager and borked his system. I'm not familiar with ati enough to help him. | 01:14 |
| darwin | heh | 01:14 |
| soundray | Vexiq: failsafe gnome wouldn't have worked either otherwise | 01:14 |
| darwin | :( | 01:15 |
| Vexiq | soundray,histo: I got 1 step closer atleast :) | 01:15 |
| alraune | histo :who has ati prob ? | 01:15 |
| ace_suares | darwin: well sometimes you wont get an answer at all, and at least now you know your irc is working :-) | 01:15 |
| soundray | histo: Thanks. Vexiq: can you run 'gksudo jockey-gtk' and see if the driver there is disabled now | 01:15 |
| pkhalid | hi | 01:16 |
| darwin | would it be a problem running sonar 4 with winw | 01:16 |
| darwin | wine | 01:16 |
| s3a | how do u no which drive is like sde or sda or wtv those names r | 01:16 |
| darwin | * | 01:16 |
| histo | alraune: Vexiq installed restricted driver and it borked things up. So we got him to atleast load open driver for now. He needs to remove fglrx now to keep it working for a while. | 01:16 |
| Vexiq | soundray: in terminal? | 01:16 |
| andrei_ | Tiredwolf i still get the same thing | 01:16 |
| histo | Vexiq: in X | 01:16 |
| alraune | s3a: fdisk -l | 01:16 |
| andrei_ | Maybe I do need the cd | 01:16 |
| soundray | Vexiq: yes, or go through Sys-Admin-Hardware Drivers, same thing | 01:16 |
| darwin | I know ace_suares | 01:16 |
| andrei_ | But will this make my linux go back to the way it was? | 01:16 |
| darwin | it happens | 01:16 |
| histo | andrei_: ? | 01:17 |
| Vexiq | it says "Enabled" | 01:17 |
| perlmonkey | darwin: does your name come from the OS by Apple by any chance? | 01:17 |
| Vexiq | with a "Yes" sign in it | 01:17 |
| jack-desktop | when changing my panel background color, how can i make it change all the applet background colors too? | 01:17 |
| TiredWolf | andrei_: sigh. you don't need the stupid cd. you need to remove the line that refers to it. and no, it won't make your linux "go back" to anything, it'll just ATTEMPT to fix the broken package. | 01:17 |
| alraune | Vexiq:go ahead with soundray now, i might help you further | 01:17 |
| darwin | no perlmonkey it's my real name | 01:17 |
| andrei_ | Well i removed the line | 01:17 |
| ace_suares | perlmonkey: I hope he/she was born way before that! | 01:17 |
| Blaqlight | perlmonkey smith? | 01:17 |
| andrei_ | Maybe I need to restart? | 01:17 |
| histo | jack-desktop: the applets shouldn't have backgrounds unless they are really old. | 01:17 |
| soundray | Vexiq: interesting... well, maybe it is. What framerate does 'glxgears' report? | 01:17 |
| perlmonkey | darwin: how cool | 01:17 |
| TiredWolf | andrei_: maybe you need a lot of things. | 01:17 |
| Vixus | Hey, how can I delete all files that end with ~? ...seeing as gedit doesn't do it. | 01:17 |
| jack-desktop | histo: well, even my menu bar applet has a black background | 01:18 |
| darwin | perlmonkey, anyway that's a good one | 01:18 |
| TiredWolf | andrei_: but don't count on me, since you aren't even doing what i ask you to try. | 01:18 |
| histo | Vixus: rm *~ | 01:18 |
| perlmonkey | darwin: did you run Darwin? I could not get it to install but always to try it | 01:18 |
| glitsj16 | darwin: have you tried getting help in #jack and/or #rosegarden yet ? | 01:18 |
| andrei_ | I did do what you said. I removed the line's because there were actually two. I saved | 01:18 |
| ace_suares | Vixus: waht about 'rm *~'. Be carfeull. Try 'ls -la *~' first ! | 01:18 |
| debCarlos | Flannel, TiredWolf, soundray: I was thinking about it.... Windows set the power save mode to 128, so, it will waste more disk than if i set the power save mode to 254 in Ubuntu when charger is plugged and 180 when it's unplugged... so... then... Ubuntu enchances the lifetime of laptops HDs if it's correctly set up, right ? | 01:18 |
| Vixus | histo.. what if I want it to look in directories too? rm */*~? | 01:18 |
| andrei_ | I then did the sudo install command that you gave me and the same thing happened | 01:18 |
| Vixus | ace_suares, ok | 01:18 |
| TiredWolf | andrei_: fine, so now type "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -f install". don't restart anything. | 01:18 |
| Flannel | debCarlos: does windows set it to 128? | 01:19 |
| debCarlos | Flannell: Yes | 01:19 |
| TiredWolf | not the slightest idea, fortunately i don't have a laptop :P | 01:19 |
| darwin | didn't know there was a cheannel jack | 01:19 |
| histo | Vixus: no that wouldn't work for directories | 01:19 |
| Flannel | debCarlos: then yes, setting it to 254 and 180 would give you longer disk lifetime | 01:19 |
| Flannel | debCarlos: or at least, less aggressive head parking | 01:19 |
| Vixus | histo, I don't want to delete directories, just look for files ending in ~ inside them | 01:19 |
| Vexiq | soundray: it averages at about 300 fps | 01:19 |
| bobertdos | Vixus: Yup, feel free, they're just backups after all. If you want to branch through directories, it's probably better to use -R for recursive removal. | 01:19 |
| ace_suares | histo: directories with a ~ at the end ? weird ! | 01:19 |
| debCarlos | Flannel: If you boot from WIndows, then restart (Without shutdown) and in Ubuntu do a hdparm -i you'll see it :) | 01:19 |
| cjones | can you apt-get mkdistro? | 01:20 |
| andrei_ | ugh... the same thing. Why did I even bother trying to make my desktop look like Mac! I hate mac! | 01:20 |
| hiptobecubic | i'm trying to create an ad-hoc network but none of the computers are connecting to one another, how does this work | 01:20 |
| ace_suares | bobertdos: -r not -R | 01:20 |
| histo | ace_suares: no he wants files that end in ~ nested in his home I assume as well as ones just inside. | 01:20 |
| debCarlos | Flannel: So, Linux have actually a solution and not a problem :D | 01:20 |
| ace_suares | andrei_: I like cairo dock. Makes look like mac a bit :-) | 01:20 |
| bobertdos | ace_suares: yes, yes ;) | 01:20 |
| sytheticz | soundray: It may be worth mentioning I once tried overclocking my graphics card and i think it damaged it somewhat, it used to freeze up the os in windows but it would unfreeze, perhaps it is the same but ubuntu wont unfreeze? | 01:20 |
| soundray | Vexiq: that sounds like the open source driver. I would untick the ATI box in Hardware Drivers and let it do its thing. Then reboot and see if you can log into normal gnome (hoping I was wrong) | 01:20 |
| soundray | sytheticz: sounds possible | 01:21 |
| debCarlos | ace_suares: haven't tried AWN? It rocks :) | 01:21 |
| ace_suares | histo: 'rm -r ~/*~' ? not sure. | 01:21 |
| histo | !info mkdistro | 01:21 |
| ubottu | Package mkdistro does not exist in hardy | 01:21 |
| sytheticz | so maybe it fixed the problem but the fact it is damaged is giving me an identical problem | 01:21 |
| histo | cjones: nope | 01:21 |
| histo | cjones: try apt-cache search mkdistro maybe | 01:21 |
| s3a | can sum1 plz explain y adding my hd /dev/sdc to pmount.allow is not making my hd work?? it worked in debian! (with another partition) | 01:21 |
| bobertdos | ace_suares: It's different for every command, couldn't remember which for rm :p | 01:21 |
| Dex-Freudii | I am having trouble installing libglib-2.0-dev | 01:21 |
| cjones | histo thanks | 01:21 |
| histo | Vixus: I believe you will have to use find I'm not too good with this stuff. | 01:22 |
| sytheticz | Is a Nvidia Geforce 8400 better than a 7600? | 01:22 |
| Vexiq | if not you owe me flowers ;) | 01:22 |
| ace_suares | bobertdos: -R is for the ch* and for ls... | 01:22 |
| soundray | sytheticz: better ask in ##hardware | 01:22 |
| Vixus | histo, ace_suares, bobertos: alright, cheers.. i just thought they'd go away by themselves. | 01:22 |
| ace_suares | bobertdos: yeah an you might post to linux haters blog :-) | 01:22 |
| Dex-Freudii | libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.16.3-1) but 2.16.4-0ubuntu2 will be installed | 01:22 |
| sytheticz | ok thanks, thanks for the insight, :) | 01:23 |
| Dex-Freudii | any help please??? | 01:23 |
| ace_suares | Vixus: be gald they don't ! Very usefull if you fsck'ed up! | 01:23 |
| bobertdos | ace_suares: Why would I do that?? | 01:23 |
| Vixus | ace_suares, yeah, definitely | 01:23 |
| ace_suares | Dex-Freudii: wahrt is yr problem ? | 01:23 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:2.16.4-0ubuntu2 will be installed, whats wrong with that ? | 01:23 |
| ace_suares | bobertdos: OT: it's a great blog. | 01:23 |
| lunch | anyone know if radeon 9550 supports 90 degree screen rotation? | 01:23 |
| MrVampy | how difficult is settin up for a dual boot with XP and Ubuntu | 01:24 |
| Dex-Freudii | that after that it does not install libglib-2.0-dev | 01:24 |
| alraune | lunch: try it... | 01:24 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: that after that it does not install libglib-2.0-dev | 01:24 |
| Vexiq | soundray: power to you :) | 01:24 |
| sytheticz | ok question about irc, how would I change to the hardware channel? lol | 01:24 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: With Ubuntu? It's so difficult as walk :) | 01:24 |
| Dex-Freudii | sytheticz: /join #hardware | 01:24 |
| soundray | !dualboot > MrVampy | 01:24 |
| ubottu | MrVampy, please see my private message | 01:24 |
| Vexiq | soundray: it works fine again | 01:24 |
| sytheticz | thanks | 01:24 |
| bobertdos | ace_suares: If you say so. So ch* and ls are the only ones that use capital R. Huh, I'll remember that. | 01:25 |
| histo | Vixus: you can try something like rm -rf `find . -type d -name *~` | 01:25 |
| histo | Vixus: there ahs to be an easier way though. | 01:25 |
| Vexiq | soundray: I'll think twice before going anywhere near ATi drivers for a while ;) | 01:25 |
| soundray | Vexiq: I'm glad | 01:25 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:what do you need libglib-2.0-dev for ? | 01:25 |
| histo | Vixus: be vary carefull though. | 01:25 |
| soundray | Vexiq: flowers cost a fortune where I live ;) | 01:25 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: compiling a source | 01:25 |
| ace_suares | lunch: http://www.google.com/search?q=%2Bradeon+9550+%2B"screen+rotation" | 01:25 |
| Vexiq | soundray: But now I have to go to bed, it's 02:25AM for me :) | 01:25 |
| ace_suares | bobertdos: the ones I use :-) | 01:25 |
| Vexiq | soundray: thanks for the help and goodnight | 01:25 |
| Vixus | histo: I probably just won't bother :P | 01:25 |
| soundray | Vexiq: mainland europe? | 01:25 |
| Vexiq | soundray: western Europe | 01:26 |
| alraune | Vexiq;I'll think twice before going anywhere near ATi drivers for a while | shure ? | 01:26 |
| soundray | Vexiq: oh, tot ziens ;) | 01:26 |
| ace_suares | histo I would use xargs then if you formulate it like that. | 01:26 |
| bobertdos | ace_suares: I see ;) | 01:26 |
| histo | Vixus: you can add a i to the -rf to ask you so it would be rm -rfi `find . -type d -name *~` | 01:26 |
| Vexiq | soundray: Oh you're Dutch? :) | 01:26 |
| ace_suares | Vexiq: nederlands ? | 01:26 |
| soundray | Vexiq: no | 01:26 |
| histo | Vixus: then it would prompt you for permission | 01:26 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:2.16.4-0ubuntu2 won't suit ? | 01:26 |
| Dex-Freudii | This is the error message:: libglib2.0-dev: Depends: libglib2.0-0 (= 2.16.3-1) but 2.16.4-0ubuntu2 will be installed | 01:26 |
| soundray | Vexiq: just a Nits fan | 01:26 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: it is an error message that I get | 01:27 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:what do you try to compile ? | 01:27 |
| histo | Vixus: your best answer may come from #linuxhelp | 01:27 |
| Vexiq | soundray: You must be old :P | 01:27 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: a source code | 01:27 |
| ace_suares | soundray: The Nits? R U Kidding ? | 01:27 |
| soundray | Vexiq: very | 01:27 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:indeed ? what do you try to compile ? | 01:27 |
| soundray | ace_suares: no, I'm dead serious | 01:27 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: gnutella | 01:28 |
| Overand | Hm, the ubuntu-server "rescue mode" doesn't seem to be OK with rescuing a non-ext3 partition | 01:28 |
| Vixus | histo: ok | 01:28 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:check that out, brb | 01:28 |
| ace_suares | soundray: OT what was there biggest hit again? | 01:28 |
| Overand | I need to boot a live-CD on a system with 160 megs of ram - all I really need is DD and ssh | 01:28 |
| Vexiq | ace_squares: Yeah I'm Dutch.. you're from the Antillen I see | 01:28 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: what? | 01:28 |
| soundray | ace_suares: where I grew up? "In the Dutch Mountains" and "J.O.S Days" | 01:28 |
| Overand | "Riplinux" also seems to fail. Suggestions? Options for the ubuntu-server rescue mode maybe? | 01:28 |
| ace_suares | Vexiq: I live there yeah :-) 29 celsius now. | 01:29 |
| histo | Vixus: but the -r will try to remove directories not sure that it would go in to directories. So you shouldn't need it. the find command should go deep in to directories and search | 01:29 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Which one is the HD temperature, therm 1 or therm 2 (My HD seems to not work above 55 C ) | 01:29 |
| debCarlos | ? | 01:29 |
| KlrSp1 | Overand: how well is your linux-fu? | 01:29 |
| Vexiq | ace_squares: 17 now, was 33 degrees the other night | 01:29 |
| soundray | debCarlos: neither | 01:29 |
| soundray | debCarlos: your HD doesn't have a sensor, remember? | 01:29 |
| ace_suares | histo: the -r won't remove dirs, because no dir ends in ~ if you have a sane system./ | 01:29 |
| histo | Vixus: either way let me know if you get a better answer i'm interested in the solution now. | 01:29 |
| soundray | debCarlos: one is the CPU temp., one is the system temp. | 01:29 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Oh !? So, what are they? | 01:29 |
| Vexiq | ace_squares,soundray: Goedenacht en tot ziens ;) (Good night and see you) | 01:30 |
| Overand | KlrSp1: pretty good =] | 01:30 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:gnutella client ? which ? download link ? | 01:30 |
| soundray | debCarlos: it can be difficult to tell which is which | 01:30 |
| dubby | apt:page | 01:30 |
| soundray | Vexiq: bye | 01:30 |
| KlrSp1 | Overand: then i suggest the gentoo minimal cd | 01:30 |
| Overand | I'm planning on doing a dd if=/dev/sda | ssh "cat > ..." | 01:30 |
| ace_suares | Vexiq: I can see that in gnome-weather. I keep that runnign to see how lucky I am L:) | 01:30 |
| Overand | KlrSp1: actually, that's not a bad idea | 01:30 |
| Overand | KlrSp1: will that be useful for an installation as well? | 01:30 |
| Yach2 | I'm not very familiar with yaboot, but i want to configure it to let me use the CD drive as the bootdisk, how do i do that? I run ubuntu 8.04 on a PowerBook G4 (PPC architecture). | 01:30 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:brb= be right back | 01:30 |
| Vixus | histo: rm: missing operand? | 01:30 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:which client ? | 01:31 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: that's not the point... I want to know why i cannot install libglib-2.0-dev from synaptic | 01:31 |
| ace_suares | alraune: apt-get install gtk-gnutella | 01:31 |
| hiptobecubic | i'm trying to connect adhoc to an XP box but having no luck, any one have any ideas? | 01:31 |
| histo | Vixus: hrm... hold up trying to find a better way | 01:31 |
| Overand | Yach2: i seem to recall that openfirmware has issues with booting from alt drives, but yaboot might let you - sorry that i don't know it better =/ | 01:31 |
| KlrSp1 | of ubuntu? mmm not really.. too many custom scripts you'd have to figure out and execute, etc etc... just best to take it as it is and use the actual install cd for that | 01:31 |
| debCarlos | soundray: ohh, ok. So, HD temp have to be at least 10 C below CPU right? Because CPU does all work... well, maybe 20 C ... ? | 01:31 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:ace_suares: alraune: apt-get install gtk-gnutella ?? | 01:31 |
| Overand | KlrSp1: nono- for gentoo. I have like 7 ubuntu and debian machines, figure i might branch out | 01:31 |
| soundray | debCarlos: no, it doesn't work like that | 01:31 |
| KlrSp1 | Overand: oh you mean to actually install gentoo? | 01:32 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: i want to install latest source code | 01:32 |
| Yach2 | overand: because i'm trying to install OS X on an Apple laptop that's got ubuntu 8.04 on it, but it keeps telling me it's unable to mount the volume | 01:32 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Do you know how it works? Or any page i should read? | 01:32 |
| Overand | Yach2: you might want to do it 'the other way' | 01:32 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:which client ? | 01:32 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: I want to know why it won't install libglib-2.0-dev from synaptic | 01:32 |
| Yach2 | overand: and what's "the other way"? | 01:32 |
| Overand | Yach2: hold down "c" when you turn it on to get it to boot from the CD | 01:32 |
| soundray | debCarlos: all that you can say is that you have two sensors. One is probably closer to the CPU, so it'll be influenced by how much numbercrunching you do. | 01:32 |
| KlrSp1 | Overand: i was thinking of going back to gentoo; but I'm currently too lazy | 01:33 |
| Overand | Yach2: but if you install OSX 'on top of' ubuntu you'll probably end up screwing up the bootloader (yaboot) | 01:33 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii:I#m the almighty god... which client ? download link to the source ?? | 01:33 |
| Yach2 | overand: oh THAT way.. i tried that... i get the Apple error screen telling me i need to restart my comp | 01:33 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: what??? | 01:33 |
| mattwynne | hi - I need some help with file permissions. I installed transmission 1.22 from source but it can't write it's blocklist when it downloads it | 01:33 |
| alraune | Dex-Freudii: which client ? download link to the source ?? | 01:33 |
| Dex-Freudii | alraune: I don't care about gnutella... I care about libglib-2.0-dev | 01:33 |
| soundray | debCarlos: there are no Intel or AMD CPUs that actually have a sensor *inside*, so you cannot know what the real CPU temperature is. | 01:33 |
| mattwynne | I think i need to give transmission more rights so that it can unzip the blocklist | 01:33 |
| mattwynne | I tried running it as sudo but it didn't help | 01:34 |
| soundray | debCarlos: so those values are merely an approximation, suitable to show a tendency, but nothing else. | 01:34 |
| mattwynne | can anyone help me debug it please? | 01:34 |
| alraune | mattwynne:ran it as root ? | 01:34 |
| ace_suares | mattwynne: transmision ? apt-get or what url ? | 01:34 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Ok, i don't do too much :). I have only compiz and pidgin running... well, screenlets and bluetooth too... | 01:34 |
| mattwynne | alraume - I did 'sudo transmission' at the terminal | 01:34 |
| ace_suares | mattwynne: where did you get transmission ? | 01:35 |
| Overand | Yach2: when i installed OSX and ubuntu on my G4, i installed OS X first, and made a seperate partition, thebn had to modifythat partition | 01:35 |
| mattwynne | ace_suares: I downloaded the source from http://www.transmissionbt.com/download.php | 01:35 |
| Overand | Yach2: there are guides out there, but i seriously think you're going to want to install OS X first, then ubuntu second | 01:35 |
| soundray | debCarlos: if you want to bring your CPU temperature up, install cpuburn and run burnP6. Read the warnings, though | 01:35 |
| soundray | !info cpuburn | debCarlos | 01:35 |
| Yach2 | overand: so then i must reformat the entire hard drive? | 01:35 |
| ubottu | debcarlos: cpuburn (source: cpuburn): a collection of programs to put heavy load on CPU. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.4-26 (hardy), package size 14 kB, installed size 116 kB (Only available for amd64 i386 hurd-i386 kfreebsd-i386 kfreebsd-amd64) | 01:35 |
| Overand | Yach2: you probably don't *need* to - but it'll likely be useful | 01:35 |
| cplx | anyone here used APC rack air removal unit's (for SX racks) | 01:36 |
| Yach2 | overand: i see | 01:36 |
| mattwynne | I found that apt-get didn't install the latest version, which has the blocklist feature I want | 01:36 |
| ace_suares | mattwynne: try 'sudo apt-get install transmission and report the results... | 01:36 |
| Overand | Oo, 950k/sec - i like my innernets | 01:36 |
| debCarlos | soundray: doesn't look tooooo safe, i think it's better left him quiet :) | 01:36 |
| MrVampy | ok so if i run a dual boot i have multiple hard drives, will ubuntu install support for those addinational disk drives | 01:36 |
| mattwynne | ace_suares: I did that - it install 1.02 or something which is an old version | 01:36 |
| mattwynne | maybe I need to update my sources? | 01:36 |
| Overand | mattwynne: apt-get will only install the most-recent version of transmission that's in ubuntu's repositories | 01:36 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: It should | 01:37 |
| histo | Vixus: find . -type f -name "*~" -exec rm {} \; | 01:37 |
| ari_stress | morning all | 01:37 |
| bobertdos | MrVampy: Absolutely (if all goes normally) | 01:37 |
| MrVampy | debcalros : even with the filesysystem as NTFS? | 01:37 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: You mean, if you can read them? | 01:37 |
| soundray | debCarlos: on the other hand, if your laptop is under warranty still, you might want to burn it in now to bring out any flaws | 01:37 |
| alraune | MrVampy:: yup | 01:37 |
| Overand | mattwynne: you might want to compile the latest version, or see if there are unofficial .deb fikles out there | 01:38 |
| histo | Vixus: you can also try find . -type f -name "*~" -exec ls {} \; to see what its going to get rid of | 01:38 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: Or you want to install it on NTFS? | 01:38 |
| MrVampy | deb : yes.. one of them has movies and music on them.. and if i can no more then read and play those files.. i'm happy enuf. | 01:38 |
| mattwynne | overand: I have compiled the latest version, and I think it's running OK - it's just this permissions issue | 01:38 |
| RequinB4 | what is the program name of document viewer (i want to open a pdf via CLI) | 01:38 |
| MrVampy | well it will be a dual boot with XP installed first then ubuntu as the howto explains to do | 01:38 |
| ace_suares | RequinB4: don't know. | 01:38 |
| mattwynne | I don't understand enough about linux permissions yet to know what's going on | 01:38 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: yeah, you can read them :) | 01:38 |
| hellcat-- | Hi all | 01:38 |
| Overand | mattwynne: ah - i misunderstoood | 01:39 |
| Overand | mattwynne: what's the issue? | 01:39 |
| bobertdos | RequinB4: Evince | 01:39 |
| hellcat-- | is there a podcast reader/ | 01:39 |
| alraune | MrVampy:: install ubuntu least on a single partition, better on a single drive... | 01:39 |
| Overand | You said "i think it's running ok" = what's not working? | 01:39 |
| ace_suares | okay guys | 01:39 |
| Overand | mattwynne: note - don't try to use a port # below 1024 | 01:39 |
| alraune | MrVampy:: ubu reads and writes ntfs fine | 01:39 |
| ace_suares | & dolls | 01:39 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: And write too, it works good for me, and i have vista on the other partition | 01:39 |
| ace_suares | going to sleep | 01:39 |
| RequinB4 | bobertdos: thanks | 01:39 |
| * ace_suares is out of da house in 5. | 01:39 | |
| hellcat-- | the podcasts that I have in itunes, I found there but the websites list rss subscriptions which go to firefox by default, what should I use as another program? | 01:39 |
| mattwynne | so when I hit hte 'update blocklist' button, it downloads the blocklist file (i think) and then after some time i see this error in the console: gzip: stdout: No space left on device | 01:40 |
| mattwynne | but I have room on my drive | 01:40 |
| Overand | hellcat--: try 'miro' | 01:40 |
| MrVampy | so i should creaete indenptent parts for each os? | 01:40 |
| Overand | !podcast | 01:40 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Well, you might be right, but actually i can't do that :). I think warranty removes if i install linux :( | 01:40 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about podcast | 01:40 |
| Overand | !podcasts | 01:40 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about podcasts | 01:40 |
| Overand | gr | 01:40 |
| Vixus | histo: I get ./.dbus: permission denied | 01:40 |
| mattwynne | so I figure it's that transmission just doesn't have permission to write the files | 01:40 |
| alraune | mattwynne:trashbin full ? | 01:40 |
| histo | Vixus: even with the ls command | 01:40 |
| mint2 | hiya | 01:40 |
| alraune | mattwynne:nope, would be permission denied | 01:40 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: You should install Windows in a partition and Ubuntu in another one. | 01:41 |
| mattwynne | a;raume: na - loads of room | 01:41 |
| mint2 | can anyone help me ? | 01:41 |
| Overand | mattwynne: type df -h at a console | 01:41 |
| Overand | and paste the output to pastebin and give me the URL | 01:41 |
| Vixus | histo, yeah | 01:41 |
| Overand | also do df -i | 01:41 |
| alraune | !ask>mint2 | 01:41 |
| ubottu | mint2, please see my private message | 01:41 |
| MrVampy | kk.. that works.. i can resize my partitation before the install.. | 01:41 |

| histo | Vixus: Make sure you copy this and paste it | 01:41 |
| soundray | debCarlos: I'd never accept that. It might even be illegal for HP to reject a warranty claim on those grounds -- depends on where you are | 01:41 |
| histo | Vixus: find . -type f -name "*~" -exec ls {} \; | 01:41 |
| ace_suares | histo far too complicated ! | 01:42 |
| Vixus | histo: Nope :) | 01:42 |
| mint2 | hi. ok, so basically i got my pc which is amd 64 bit, so i downloaded the 64 bit version for amd of ubuntu. when i installed it , all went went. When rebooted once finished, i get to the login name where i put name and password. when i type it in, it makes as if its loading then a small blur and then back to login screen | 01:42 |
| ace_suares | histo cd ~; rm */*~; rm */*/*~ would be enough. | 01:42 |

| dubby | hey is anyone here a part of canonical or something and has the ability to get stuff done I have made a script you can send an http string and when people follow it (which it should highlight) it will help people who have no idea how to install with apt-get to over ride that http://paste.ubuntu.com/33823/ | 01:43 |
| histo | ace_suares: Yeah but you don't know how deep the files could be | 01:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | LOL | 01:43 |
| debCarlos | soundray: Ok, i know it too, i'll check in the website... But know what? Fujitsu quits warranty if you modify something in laptop, like installing linux... | 01:43 |
| histo | Vixus: find . -type d -name "*~" -exec ls {} \; | 01:43 |
| debCarlos | MrVampy: nop, you can pm me :) | 01:43 |
| soundray | dubby: does your keyboard not have commas and periods? | 01:43 |
| ace_suares | histo if it;'s more then 2 deep he's doing somethng wrong :-) | 01:43 |
| alraune | mint2: tried failsafe/recovery mode3 ? | 01:43 |
| dubby | soundray, doesn't have enter either :-) | 01:44 |
| capri | I have installed the latest ubuntu and i am trying to install something and it says i have to type "make" but when i do that it comes many choices what do i have to write after make | 01:44 |

| vic_ | doesnt' seem to exist | 01:44 |
| histo | Vixus: no | 01:44 |
| histo | Vixus: you shouldn't have to run with sudo in your home folder. You own it. | 01:45 |
| yoyoned | capri what choices | 01:45 |
| mint2 | alraune yeah why is it happening | 01:45 |
| alraune | mint2: tried to change session to terminal ? | 01:45 |
| jbroome_ | capri: what are you trying to compile? Have you installed build-essential? | 01:45 |
| bobertdos | capri: It sounds like you are trying to build source code. If you're new to Ubuntu, I wouldn't recommend that. What are you trying to get? | 01:45 |
| Vixus | histo, then why am i getting permission denied? | 01:45 |
| mint2 | thought i thought id b straight forward | 01:45 |

| alraune | mint2:can get a terminal ? | 01:46 |
| denverdave | FQDN question | 01:46 |
| yoyoned | capri: what are the options | 01:46 |
| mint2 | i got rid of it alraune, can i pm u | 01:46 |
| histo | Vixus: because we must be using the find command improperly | 01:46 |

| nathan | Segmentation Faulting* | 01:48 |

| denverdave | I change hostname to mail, domain to myd8.mobi, but when I hostname -f all I get is mail. | 01:48 |
| glitsj16 | mattwynne: there's a ubuntu repository at http://repository.debuntu.org/ (fully authenticated) that has the latest stable release of transmission (1.22) .. not a real answer to you permissions problem i realize, just for reference | 01:48 |
| nubie69 | I'm a new user - having printing problem. Ubuntu seems to recognize my printer (auto-recognized, actually), but no printer shows up under printer status and items sent to the printer never show up, although the document print status shows the document as printed.

| capri | did u get it? | 01:48 |
| nathan | weechat works.. elinks... screen.. htop.. but right at the start of nautilus firefox or epiphany, it seg faults, this is from memory, right? | 01:48 |

| nathan | Cpudan80: i bet it works better on 86 bit stuff | 01:49 |
| Cpudan80 | nathan: I've had trouble with banshee before --- it doesn't autodetect songs properly? | 01:50 |
| Overand | !overflow | 01:50 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about overflow | 01:50 |
| Overand | Does anyone here know about the "overflow" filesystem? | 01:50 |
| Overand | His /tmp drive looks like it's 1 meg =/ | 01:50 |
| Cpudan80 | nathan: like you know - if I add 10 songs to a folder that is monitored for changes, those 10 might not show up | 01:50 |
| capri | i got error msg | 01:50 |
| nathan | Cpudan80: hmm... well... audacious? that will never seg fault on you ;) | 01:51 |

| mattwynne | overand: that makes sense actually, I can also see something in the message logs from transmission that it's using /tmp paths for the unzipping | 01:52 |
| Overand | mattwynne: ew, fakeraid | 01:52 |
| bobertdos | nathan: Does everything still seg fault the moment you start up or just after Firefox and other programs? | 01:52 |
| nathan | bobertdos: the moment I start | 01:52 |
| histo | Vixus: now the problem is spaces in file names | 01:52 |
| nathan | bobertdos: I try to log into gnome, and nothing starts | 01:52 |
| histo | hrm.. | 01:52 |
| nathan | bobertdos: go into failsafe terminal and lauch apps, everything seg faults | 01:52 |

| RequinB4 | histo "word1 word2 word3.file" or word1\ word2\ word3.file | 01:53 |
| bobertdos | nathan: You know, as unlikely as this sounds, maybe you've got an infection. There aren't many out there, but they do exist. | 01:53 |
| Devourer | Do certain applications use ESD rather than ALSA? | 01:53 |
| nathan | bobertdos: A VIRUS??!! | 01:53 |
| denverdave | use alsa | 01:53 |
| yomer1 | there is a big problem with the policys with the last updates | 01:53 |
| alraune | Devourer: which app ? | 01:54 |
| MrVampy | how does ubuntu handle dual monitor setup's and is it mirroring or independent | 01:54 |
| mattwynne | Overand: fakeraid - I know. I was scammed! | 01:54 |
| Devourer | alraune, maybe flash player? | 01:54 |
| mattwynne | when I bought the motherboard, they said RAID! | 01:54 |
| Overand | mattwynne: i'm using software raid on one of my systems, and am actually surprisingly happy with it | 01:54 |
| mattwynne | little did I know... | 01:54 |
| bobertdos | nathan: yeah, it is a possibility, remote, yes, but it is a possibility | 01:54 |
| Overand | mattwynne: does the system dual-boot to windows? | 01:54 |
| alraune | Devourer: uses alsa commonly | 01:54 |
| nubie69 | I'm a new user - having printing problem. Ubuntu seems to recognize my printer (auto-recognized, actually), but no printer shows up under printer status and items sent to the printer never show up, although the document print status shows the document as printed. Printing a test page fails; it's a USB printer with a device URI of hp://usb/[printer type]?serial=[serial#]. Ideas, anybody? | 01:54 |
| yomer1 | i updated and now I the automonunt does not work anymore | 01:54 |

| histo | Vixus: this is really annoying i'm not going to sleep now untill I learn this. | 01:54 |
| nathan | bobertdos: could I have got it from the internet? is my only option a reinstall? | 01:54 |
| RequinB4 | It's far more likely something's messed up with the install | 01:54 |
| nathan | RequinB4: thats what I'm thinking | 01:55 |
| mattwynne | overand: yes it does, though I'm happy enough with linux that i'll never go back to windows now | 01:55 |
| Overand | mattwynne: yeah - if you need to re-use those drives, there's no 'smooth' way to move from fakeraid/dmraid to software raid | 01:55 |
| Overand | mattwynne: that's the main advantage to sticking with the 'fakeraid' setup - you can share the fakeraid array with windows | 01:55 |
| mattwynne | overand: I need to fork out for a USB 1TB drive | 01:55 |
| Devourer | alraune, in PIdgin, when I select it to use Automatic, it is quiet, but when I select ESD it is louder, and when I select ALSA it doesn't play at all. What does automatic mean? | 01:55 |
| RequinB4 | literally, you would have to have some really smart enemies who hated you a lot to get one. It's just not feasible to get one through normal browsing | 01:55 |
| nathan | RequinB4: well, should I reinstall with alternate cd? | 01:55 |
| paul__ | Hi - just put ubuntu server on my media pc to serve my PS3 and network .. I installed mediabomb then 'sudo medoabomb' and I get error code -203 ... any ideas? | 01:55 |
| RequinB4 | nathan: can't hurt, backup your /home | 01:55 |
| Overand | mattwynne: i bought four 750 gig drives, and set up a mix of raid 1 and raid 5 | 01:55 |
| nathan | RequinB4: k. well, this is a fresh install.. I might switch back to Arch Linux as I had no problems with that... :P | 01:56 |
| Overand | mattwynne: I set up all 4 drives with the same partition table - this'l lshow you why I like software raid | 01:56 |
| RequinB4 | nathan: but unless there is a time issue, i always say get a second opinion | 01:56 |
| bobertdos | nathan: Unless there's a CLI antivirus program out there, you won't be able to run Clam or AVG, so yeah, you might get stuck reinstalling. | 01:56 |
| yomer1 | who talks who? who this works? | 01:56 |
| RequinB4 | nathan: did you check the md5sum | 01:56 |
| nathan | RequinB4: nope. dang it. | 01:56 |
| denverdave | nubie69 are you paying attention? | 01:56 |
| histo | Vixus: ahh hah | 01:56 |
| alraune | Devourer: mine is using alsa, might depend on the soundcard | 01:56 |
| mattwynne | Overand: yeah i really like the sound of it - it's just having the headroom to move my data around... | 01:56 |
| nathan | RequinB4: but if it was an ISO flaw it would have screwed up earlier, right? | 01:56 |
| kitche | bobertdos: well ClamAv is cli | 01:57 |
| nubie69 | denverdave: haven't seen a response yet. | 01:57 |
| Overand | mattwynne: 150 meg /boot, 2 gig 'raid array' parition, and 748 gig 'raid array' partition | 01:57 |

| Overand | mattwynne: i created 4 'raid volumes' md0 = raid 1 mirror, all 4 150meg partitions | 01:57 |
| RequinB4 | nathan: if you still have the iso, might just try mounting it in a VM | 01:57 |
| Overand | (for /boot) | 01:57 |
| nubie69 | denverdave: didn't see it. stand by | 01:57 |

| nathan | RequinB4: no idea how to do that from cli.. how about I just pop it in and run the CD integrity check? | 01:57 |

| Overand | mattwynne: glad to help! | 01:58 |
| nathan | OK OK, I'll do a CD integrity test :] | 01:58 |
| RequinB4 | nathan: i guess that would work. To be honest, since its a new install i'd just reinstall if you have the time | 01:59 |

He would have to have someone send him something and use his password to install it manually for it to be a virus. read !virus | 02:00 |

| === ding is now known as viezerd | ||
| kane | please | 02:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | histo: it supports "possibly illegal".. formats, i believe is the big issue. | 02:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | !broadcom | 02:37 |
| ubottu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx | 02:37 |
| cybane | so if I format it with fdisk I will get it all back? | 02:37 |
| bazhang | kane, you need to do some reading and stop repeating every 30 seconds | 02:38 |
| Jewfro-Macabbi | cybane, if you format there will be nothing to get back | 02:38 |
| IndyGunFreak | bazhang: i think he just wants someone to do it for him | 02:38 |
| arooni-mobile__ | how do i wget an entire front page of a website (including any css & etc) that they might have) | 02:38 |
| kitche | kane: you know the .sys and .inf files you have from broadcom cd you get the firmware from thoses | 02:38 |
| kane | ok i am using Kubuntu now | 02:38 |
| histo | ahh | 02:39 |
| kane | Hope my broadcom shows up | 02:39 |
| histo | Just didn't know if it was shunned like other third party repos were | 02:39 |
| bazhang | kane /join #kubuntu | 02:39 |
| Jewfro-Macabbi | arooni-mobile__, from the page you want to save - in your browser - file - save page as | 02:39 |
| IndyGunFreak | if it doesn't show up in Ubuntu, why would it show up in Kubuntu? | 02:39 |
| lisa_ | IndyGunFreak, youtube plays in Opera, but in firefox it says flash missing. anyway to fix? | 02:39 |
| IndyGunFreak | lisa_: yes, install flash | 02:40 |
| freak_ | try gnash | 02:40 |
| alraune | Devourer: did you choose alsa in the setup ? | 02:40 |
| Devourer | alraune, yes. | 02:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | isn't that kinda like saying will a red truck go faster than a blue truck? | 02:40 |
| freesoul | . | 02:40 |
| Jewfro-Macabbi | lisa, cp the libflash.so file to .mozilla/plugins | 02:40 |
| lisa_ | IndyGunFreak, how? heh | 02:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | lisa_: when you went to youtube in firefox, there was a link there.. click it, and read the instructions | 02:41 |
| alraune | modprobe -l | grep snd | grep pci ,output ? | 02:41 |
| Devourer | alraune, http://asdui.pastebin.com/m2d0fed86 | 02:42 |
| kbrosnan | lisa_: version of ubuntu? | 02:42 |
| lisa_ | IndyGunFreak, ok thanks! but I foudn a better way. apt-get install flash-nonfree | 02:42 |
| lisa_ | kbrosnan, it works now | 02:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | lisa_: well, i've never done it that way, congrats | 02:42 |
| scribawf | What's the equivalent in Linux to ipconfig /renew ? | 02:42 |
| tzadik | when creating a launcher, how do you find the icon for the program? | 02:42 |
| the7thmagus | where do programs install to in the filesystem? I need to find the root folder to Eclipse, which I installed via apt | 02:42 |
| cwill747 | lisa_, yeah firefox does that with the link. haha | 02:42 |
| bfallik | anyone have any suggestions on how I can log in? | 02:42 |
| lisa_ | cwill747, :_) | 02:43 |
| bfallik | is there a better place to ask? | 02:43 |
| lisa_ | brb | 02:43 |
| kitche | scribawf: dhclient <interface> | 02:43 |
| cwill747 | the7thmagus, you can find folders by using the whereis command, type in whereis Eclipse and you can find the folders you need | 02:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | bfallik: how you can log in? | 02:43 |
| histo | bfallik: what do you mean? | 02:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | perhaps w/ a username and password | 02:43 |
| kitche | scribawf: need to put sudo infront of dhclient | 02:43 |
| Jewfro-Macabbi | scibawf - the equivalent program is ifconfig - not sure the switches - try the man page | 02:43 |
| bfallik | right. ask a stupid question... | 02:43 |
| cwill747 | !whereis | 02:43 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about whereis | 02:43 |
| scribawf | Kitche; Thank you | 02:43 |
| bfallik | for an unknown reason, i can't log in anymore | 02:43 |
| bfallik | xsession fails | 02:44 |
| histo | bfallik: can you elaborate a little more as to what happens when you try | 02:44 |
| histo | ty | 02:44 |
| scribawf | Kitche; Yup Thanx Much | 02:44 |
| filo1234 | !python | 02:44 |
| ubottu | python is a popular Object Oriented scripting language included in Ubuntu. For more on Python please see http://www.python.org | 02:44 |
| tzadik | specifically, i am trying to make a launcher for Vim | 02:44 |
| histo | bfallik: does it give you an error? | 02:44 |
| tzadik | and i can't find the Vim icon anywhere | 02:44 |
| lisa_ | im running Vista, but now I am runnung Ubuntu as a guest in virtualbox. Can a virus, spyware, keylogger from Vista jump over into ubuntu? | 02:44 |
| bfallik | i get a dialog window about the sesison lasting < 10 seconds | 02:44 |
| bfallik | no other obvious errors | 02:44 |
| jbroome_ | lisa_: no | 02:44 |
| bfallik | i don't think I've reconfigured or changed any settings | 02:44 |
| histo | Is there a way to tell why a package is being kept back from upgrading? | 02:44 |
| amenado | lisa_-> it may jump but has not effect :P | 02:44 |
| cwill747 | lisa_, viruses don't affect linux | 02:44 |
| tzadik | i want to use the same icon that shows up in the panel | 02:44 |
| Devourer | alraune, hmmm... | 02:45 |
| amenado | no* | 02:45 |
| lisa_ | amenado, hehe cute | 02:45 |
| histo | !virus | lisa_ | 02:45 |
| ubottu | lisa_: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 02:45 |
| kitche | lisa_: well no a keylogger could if written correctly but most keyloggers are not programmed correctly | 02:45 |
| lisa_ | so I can load virtualbox and run ubuntu from MS Vista, and it wont get infected at all by anything that MS Windows may have? | 02:45 |
| histo | bfallik: are you at a console on the machine now? | 02:45 |
| bfallik | i can't startx from the command line either (complains "Failed to setup write-combining range" | 02:45 |
| bfallik | .xsession-errors contains nothing of obvious value either | 02:46 |
| bfallik | histo: yes | 02:46 |
| histo | lisa_: well the ubuntu image won't but the vista probably will. | 02:46 |
| lisa_ | kitche, what if I use Ubuntu as a virtualbox and switch to Ubuntu. Can there be a keylogger in memory from running Vista as a host and then key log whatever I type in ubuntu? | 02:46 |
| kitche | lisa_: correct since windows viruses don't effect Linux but Linux does have viruses and there is some that aren't even noticed unless you run a packet sniffer or something | 02:46 |
| sakis | hi all | 02:46 |
| histo | bfallik: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE | 02:46 |
| Kaspersky_ | Both of my hard drives are sd's instead of hd's. My master (or wha'ts supposed to be my master) is named sda instead of hda. | 02:46 |
| kitche | lisa_: well the keylog will get anything from the virtual machine as well | 02:46 |
| Kaspersky_ | Could that affect how Ubuntu loads? | 02:46 |
| histo | Kaspersky_: thats perfectly normal | 02:46 |
| histo | Kaspersky_: no | 02:46 |
| kitche | lisa_: due to the virtual machine uses hooks into the Windows kernel | 02:46 |
| cwill747 | lisa_: as long as virtualbox works, then nothing will affect ubuntu | 02:47 |
| mint2 | can anyone help me connect to the net on ubuintu | 02:47 |
| Kaspersky_ | My GRUB is messing up itself. | 02:47 |
| Kaspersky_ | It won't boot. | 02:47 |
| Kaspersky_ | Sends me straight to busybox. | 02:47 |
| bogdan | is there any way to create a "restart in windows xp" button because I can't select that option in the GRUB menu due to my wireless keyboard | 02:47 |
| cwill747 | lisa_: The only way it could mess up ubuntu is if the virus affected virtualbox itself | 02:47 |
| bfallik | histo: nada, except for a line "(II) Loading extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER" | 02:47 |
| histo | bfallik: no errors hrm... | 02:47 |
| histo | bfallik: has the system ever worked? | 02:47 |
| amenado | Kaspersky_-> what error you get if any before it gives you busybox prompt? | 02:47 |
| lisa_ | kitche, so if there is a keylogger in MS Windows, and I run ubuntu as a vritualbox, my text written into Ubuntu can be logged? is that right? | 02:47 |
| alraune | Devourer: hmm, searching | 02:48 |
| bfallik | histo: yes, perfectly. This is a dell with Hardy pre-installed | 02:48 |
| Kaspersky_ | Nothing really. GRUB just says it's loading and the ubuntu loader takes really long. | 02:48 |
| Devourer | alraune, alright. :) | 02:48 |
| Kaspersky_ | then sends me to busybox. | 02:48 |
| bfallik | histo: also of note, restricted mode does no better | 02:48 |
| amenado | Kaspersky_-> has it ever booted before? | 02:48 |
| kitche | lisa_: yes, but not from Ubuntu its the Windows that is infected still though you sort of need to know how a virtual machine works in Windows a bit | 02:48 |
| Kaspersky_ | Never. | 02:48 |
| kitche | lisa_: to actually understand what I m talking about | 02:48 |
| Kaspersky_ | I just installed it using the livecd. | 02:48 |
| cwill747 | Kaspersky_: I had this problem before... did you try to run in recovery mode? | 02:49 |
| amenado | Kaspersky_-> may i suggest a re-install | 02:49 |
| Kaspersky_ | No. | 02:49 |
| Kaspersky_ | I have re-installed many many times. | 02:49 |
| Kaspersky_ | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=878942 | 02:49 |
| Kaspersky_ | More information is there. | 02:49 |
| lisa_ | kitche, out the infections aside for a minute.... what I need to know is... can whatever I type into a Ubuntu firefox webpage be keylogged from a keylogger stored in Vista memory? | 02:49 |
| Kaspersky_ | I can't seem to get it to work. | 02:49 |
| cybane | Well when I try to format the disk I see I only have 317mb of stuff to format | 02:49 |
| npope | lisa_: not if it is its own machine... but if it is a virtual machine running in vista then yes | 02:50 |
| Samus_Aran | does anyone know how to stop Ubuntu from erasing the /var/cache/apt files ? | 02:50 |
| Samus_Aran | I want to keep them, permanently, always. | 02:50 |
| Samus_Aran | I hate not being able to downgrade when some app is broken | 02:50 |
| lisa_ | npope, im running Vista as a host. Ubuntu as a wm and guest. So if Vista is infected with a keylogger, the keylogger will be able to keylog everything I do in ubuntu too? | 02:51 |
| alraune | Devourer:what does: lsmod say ? | 02:51 |
| bfallik | histo: any ideas? i'm completely stumped | 02:51 |
| DINKDINK | I've booted up in a livecd but my hard drive is mounted as readonly, how do I change the read write permissions to allow me to save data to my drive | 02:51 |
| Kaspersky_ | Lisa: If you're not booting Vista then there should be no reason for the keylogger to boot. | 02:52 |
| npope | lisa_: yes because your still running Vista, and it logs every keystroke there, so it logs the key strokes going to the VM | 02:52 |
| Devourer | alraune, http://asdui.pastebin.com/m3a081578 | 02:52 |
| lakcaj | Samus_Aran, my /var/cache/apt/archives is never purged. Not sure why yours would be. | 02:52 |
| m00t | lisa_: for sure. it is like you are connected to linux from a windows infected machinee | 02:52 |
| lisa_ | kitche, i thought ubuntu was immune to keyloggers? | 02:52 |
| lisa_ | npope, thats bad news then | 02:52 |
| npope | Samus_Aran: create a cron job to backup the files in the /var/cache/apt/archives to your home directory | 02:52 |
| npope | lisa_: dual boot instead of running the vm | 02:53 |
| Samus_Aran | npope: that is a kludge as opposed to fixing the problem, though | 02:53 |
| npope | or run vista in ubuntu | 02:53 |
| lisa_ | m00t, well i was hoping to use Ubuntu with confidence, but now I cannot if I run it as a WM | 02:53 |
| cwill747 | lisa_, it is, but because you are using vista it isn't | 02:53 |
| npope | Samus_Aran: :) it works though | 02:53 |
| Samus_Aran | npope: and it doesn't guarantee that when the cronjob is not running that new files won't be erased | 02:53 |
| cwill747 | lisa_, you'd have to be booted into ubuntu, so try that | 02:53 |
| lisa_ | npope, yeah i was hoping to avoid that | 02:53 |
| mmcji | howdee | 02:53 |
| kitche | lisa_: no it's not just that the keylogger inside Windows will still keylog a virtual machine that is running inside Vista but yes Linux does have keyloggers | 02:53 |
| m00t | lisa_: boot from a Linux live cd. | 02:53 |
| LeeAdama | DINKDINK, do a "gksu nautilus", you'll launch nautilus as root, you will be able to change the permission of your drive by right-clicking on it and choosing Properties | 02:53 |
| mmcji | has anyone here made a custom live ubuntu cd? | 02:53 |
| npope | Samus_Aran: when are the files being delted? Are you running the gui version of apt of the cli ? | 02:54 |
| Samus_Aran | it seems that once I upgrade, I lose some of my old files, as I checked right after an upgrade for my old kernel files and it was gone | 02:54 |
| lakcaj | Samus_Aran, Set the APT::Archives::MaxAge and/or APT::Archives::MaxSize parameters in apt.conf | 02:54 |
| m00t | lisa_: your vm is like any other Windows process | 02:54 |
| bazhang | !remaster | mmcji | 02:54 |
| ubottu | mmcji: Interested in remastering the !Ubuntu !LiveCD? See: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization or use Tools such as http://uck.sourceforge.net/ or http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/DRU_Disc_Remastering_Utility | 02:54 |
| Samus_Aran | npope: command line 90%, GUI 10% | 02:54 |
| Flannel | Samus_Aran: check synaptic and update manager for a configuration option. | 02:54 |
| histo | bfallik: sry got distracted what type of video card do you have? | 02:54 |
| Samus_Aran | lakcaj: I will check that. | 02:54 |
| npope | Samus_Aran: kernel's should definetly not disaaper ... are you running low on disk space? | 02:54 |
| Flannel | Samus_Aran: apt-get won't do that unless you run autoclean | 02:54 |
| mmcji | thanks, i already have and have a several working images. | 02:54 |
| lisa_ | i was hoping to avoid using liveCD and install it as dual boot. and instead run it as a WM. but now I realise thats a security risk as any keylogger that infects Windows will also keylog anything I type into Ubuntu :( thats bad news for me | 02:54 |
| Samus_Aran | npope: I have 5.45 TiB =p | 02:54 |
| bfallik | histo: unsure. Intel 965, i think? Of note, I can login via the failsage gnome sesison | 02:55 |
| mmcji | i have a few questions not covered in there doc's | 02:55 |
| DINKDINK | LeeAdama thanks | 02:55 |
| lisa_ | m00t, thats bad news | 02:55 |
| Samus_Aran | lakcaj: do you mean /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/ ? | 02:55 |
| npope | Samus_Aran: found the solution to your problem | 02:55 |
| npope | Samus_Aran: http://paste.ubuntu.com/33836/ | 02:55 |
| lisa_ | <npope> lisa_: yes because your still running Vista, and it logs every keystroke there, so it logs the key strokes going to the VM <-- BAD NEWS :( | 02:56 |
| mmcji | one question, how do you customize the desktop so when you boot into the live cd, you have a pre-configured desktop. ie, at the moment, i just boot to cli and then run startx | 02:56 |
| lakcaj | Samus_Aran, looks like there is an archive file in there with one of those parameters, they must have split up the conf file | 02:56 |
| npope | mmcji: persistane USB would fix that | 02:56 |
| Samus_Aran | npope, lakcaj: thank you both, it should be fine now | 02:56 |
| histo | bfallik: yeah somethin got borked withyour video driver | 02:56 |
| lisa_ | so running Ubuntu as a virtualbox and WM, really doesnt bypass the security threats, eg keyloggers from Windows :( damn, thats not good | 02:56 |
| histo | bfallik: you can lspci and see what card you have for sure. Then perhaps someone in here can get you going in the right direction. | 02:57 |
| bfallik | wee. Turned out I had a bad .Xdefaults file | 02:57 |
| npope | lisa_: just things that run at low level like that... | 02:57 |
| mmcji | second question, squashfs is cool, but i have ubiquity installed and when i install i do not want a live enviornment, i want a reg install just like the ubuntu live cd. | 02:57 |
| histo | lisa_: No because you are still running windows | 02:57 |
| npope | lisa_: its not a security breach in ubuntu just in windows | 02:57 |
| bfallik | logging in as Gnome Failsafe was the clue, since it bypasses my settings/scripts | 02:57 |
| lisa_ | npope, yeah i understand, thanks for explaining ! bad news though :( | 02:57 |
| mmcji | yeah, i have several usb images as well | 02:57 |
| mmcji | and bsd images | 02:57 |
| lisa_ | histo, yeah i understand. not good :( | 02:58 |
| npope | lisa_: install ubuntu to a thumb drive and boot off of that | 02:58 |
| lisa_ | npope, i tried that but i can never get the thumbstick to boot lol | 02:58 |
| mmcji | just seeing if there is anyone in here that has been down this road already. | 02:58 |
| bfallik | i'm really surprised no errors were logged anywhere | 02:58 |
| npope | lisa_: make sure the bios is set to boot from usb first | 02:58 |
| fluffman | lisa_: pendrivelinux.com has some great tips for that | 02:58 |
| lisa_ | npope, unless I run a windows securioty program that checks for keyloggers? | 02:58 |
| mmcji | not the persistant usb path | 02:58 |
| juannicolas | Hi, I was wondering if someone can point me to the right dirrection in how to do internet failover with ubuntu. | 02:58 |
| kitche | lisa_: a lot of machines can't boot from usb | 02:58 |
| Kaspersky_ | http://img170.imageshack.us/img170/4465/screenshotqa5.png - Using this screenshot, which partitions need mounting and how would I go about mounting them? | 02:59 |
| lisa_ | fluffman, i followed pendrivelinuxx but one step never works, hence the usb weont boot. oh well, | 02:59 |
| alraune | Devourer:using gnome or kde ? | 02:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | kitche: i would think a machine that has vista could though... i'd suspect a bios, or her not putting the iso on the thumbdrive right | 02:59 |
| Devourer | alraune, GNOME. | 02:59 |
| lisa_ | kitche, mine can, but i mess up the installation part | 02:59 |
| mmcji | i will revisit the remaster site too | 02:59 |
| cwill747 | lisa_, http://www.adoko.com/keyloggers.html has some useful information | 03:00 |
| lisa_ | would it still be safer to use netbanking etc through a Ubuntu virtual machine, than using Vista itself for doing it? | 03:00 |
| alraune | Devourer:apps>preferences>soundcard ? | 03:00 |
| npope | lisa_: yea but it wont help with key loggers | 03:00 |
| mmcji | i had not see the dell remaster site. thanks! | 03:00 |
| kitche | IndyGunFreak: a lot of machines can't but myself I see booting from usb a security risk anyways | 03:00 |
| Devourer | alraune, I don't have a soundcard option. | 03:01 |
| hellcat-- | Ok I tried amarok but I didn't like it and removed it with synaptic(installed same method) how do I get rid of those dependencies it installed too? | 03:01 |
| Devourer | alraune, or rather, I don't have a preferences option under that. | 03:01 |
| lisa_ | kitche, besides keylogger, what else could cause a problem if running Ubuntu as a guest and vm through Vista? What else can affect security of ubuntu doing it this way? | 03:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | kitche: i agree with you, but most machines that are going to have vista, will boot a USB device.. | 03:01 |
| rrittenhouse | How do I get Ubuntu to stop connecting to this very close "linksys" AP. Sometimes I'll look up and itll be connected to Linksys instead of my encrypted connection! =/ | 03:01 |
| npope | lisa_: packet sniffing :) | 03:01 |
| lisa_ | npope, besides keyloggers. anything else that can be a security breach? | 03:01 |
| lisa_ | npope, so keyloggers and packet sniffing. anything else? lol | 03:01 |
| lisa_ | npope, what is packet sniffing? heh | 03:01 |
| alraune | Devourer:apps>system>preferences>soundcard ? | 03:02 |
| bazhang | lisa_, vista problems should be discussed in ##windows | 03:02 |
| npope | lisa_: your running ubuntu right now right? | 03:02 |
| Devourer | alraune, it says I'm using Sound Blaster Audigy. | 03:02 |
| npope | lisa_: open a terminal and type 'sudo tcpdump' | 03:02 |
| newguy4124 | I found an issue with Nautilus | 03:02 |
| fluffman | rrittenhouse: right click on the network manager (near the clock) and click edit wireless networks | 03:03 |
| alraune | Devourer:so least the driver is installed, any more options on that tab ? | 03:03 |
| npope | lisa_: open a terminal and type 'sudo tcpdump -vv' | 03:03 |
| Fezzler | I have a USB printer on my main computer on my home network. Can my Ubuntu PC, on the same network, access that printer via Samba or something similar? If yes, how do I do that? | 03:03 |
| fluffman | rrittenhouse: click on the unencrypted linksys then click "remove" at the bottom to make it stop connecting | 03:03 |
| rrittenhouse | fluffman, Ok. thank you | 03:03 |
| Devourer | alraune, under Sound Preferences? | 03:04 |
| kitche | newguy4124: which is? | 03:04 |
| alraune | Devourer:yup | 03:04 |
| lisa_ | npope, ok brb | 03:04 |
| Devourer | alraune, yeah, there are ... Haha. Yeah. There are other options. | 03:04 |
| Samus_Aran | thanks again, npope and lakcaj | 03:04 |
| npope | Fezzler: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-November/055493.html | 03:04 |
| alraune | Fezzler: I#m busy right now, but YES, that works | 03:05 |
| lisa_ | npope, I typed sudo tcpdump -vv. nlow what? | 03:05 |
| npope | lisa_: basically tcpdump takes the packets off the wire... read 'man tcpdump' | 03:05 |
| newguy4124 | kitche, a problem with copying files | 03:05 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: yes. | 03:05 |
| alraune | Devourer: alsa..., default card... | 03:05 |
| Devourer | alraune, there's Sigmatel, Playback: ALSA PCM, Capture: Monitor Source, Capture: ALSA PCM. | 03:05 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: is the printer in windows? | 03:05 |
| newguy4124 | kitche, after failing to copy a file to a folder, that folder becomes unusable | 03:05 |
| newguy4124 | kitche, nautilus crashes when trying to access it | 03:05 |
| kitche | newguy4124: you sure it's a nautilus problem | 03:06 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: Yes, Vista HP | 03:06 |
| newguy4124 | kitche, Not sure, happened when I was copying | 03:06 |
| newguy4124 | kitche, using nautilus interface | 03:06 |
| fluffman | ok, share the printer by going to "Printers" in control panel | 03:06 |
| fluffman | rightclick and click share | 03:06 |
| Fezzler | BTW, switched from Pidgin to Xchat and like Xchat better | 03:06 |
| Kaspersky_ | What should be the mount point for the ext3 file system? | 03:06 |
| Flannel | Kaspersky_: Depends on where you want to mount it. If its your only one, / | 03:07 |
| npope | Fezzler: try out 'irssi' | 03:07 |
| kitche | newguy4124: sounds like just an odd error one of those that just effects you really happens sometimes usually a reboot fixes those | 03:07 |

| Kaspersky_ | swap doesn't need a mount point? | 03:07 |
| Flannel | Kaspersky_: swap doesn't get a mount point | 03:07 |
| Devourer | alraune, the option that says Audigy says it's using ALSA. | 03:07 |
| newguy4124 | kitche, okay | 03:08 |
| Fezzler | npope: I have tried irssi, very cool, a little too complicated | 03:08 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: then click New Printer and then Windows Printer via SAMBA. | 03:08 |
| alraune | Devourer: so why alsamixergui won't start ? | 03:08 |
| DUG | how do set the downloader to save image files at their highest resolution | 03:08 |
| Kaspersky_ | For Ubuntu to load, does the ext3 need to be mounted? | 03:08 |
| Devourer | alraune, not sure. | 03:08 |
| npope | Fezzler: have you checked out 'BitchX'? | 03:08 |
| Devourer | alraune, gives me this "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device". | 03:08 |
| DUG | i set my file to reiser and nobody could touch me | 03:08 |
| Fezzler | fluufman | 03:09 |
| alraune | Devourer: apps>multim.>alsamixer ? sound not found ? | 03:09 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: you may be able to browse for it from there, or just type the name of the Vista computer as the server (type "hostname" from the command prompt in Vista to found out what that is) | 03:09 |
| cellofellow | anybody use TrueCrypt? I want to know if I can encrypt my already-existing /home partition in-place. (Can't back it up, no medium to back it up on.) | 03:09 |
| Kaspersky_ | Alright file system ext3 is being formatted and mounted to /. | 03:09 |
| Devourer | alraune, yeah, the alsamixergui will tell me that. | 03:09 |

| chalcedny | i had to reboot my ubuntu box before, for years it's rebooted fine.. but last time i got a gray screen. my son had me press control alt something. i rebooted again for upgrades and ive got the gray screen again. control alt backspace and control alt delete and control f1 do nothing. what can i do? | 03:10 |
| cellofellow | cwill747: turn my /home partition into a TrueCrypt volume. | 03:10 |
| cellofellow | Probably can't be done without backing up. | 03:11 |
| cellofellow | I was just wondering. | 03:11 |
| cwill747 | cellofellow, the whole partition? | 03:11 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: what kind of printer is it? | 03:11 |
| cellofellow | The /dev/sda5 (or is it six?) file. | 03:11 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: also, are you sure it's shared correctly from Windows, and it's on, and the windows computer is on, etc? | 03:12 |

| cwill747 | cellofellow, i don't see why you wouldn't be able to do it... what have you tried? | 03:12 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: PC on, printer on | 03:12 |
| cellofellow | Is there a better volume encryption solution than TrueCrypt? | 03:12 |
| cellofellow | I'd like to keep my data, cwill747. :) | 03:12 |

| Fezzler | fluffman | 03:13 |
| fluffman | yes, Fezzler | 03:13 |
| Devourer | alraune, nope. It'll give me that error. | 03:13 |
| Devourer | alraune, alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | 03:13 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: Where in Ubuntu do I check that the Ubuntu PC is named to the same workgroup as the PC? | 03:13 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: You know, they have the same name | 03:13 |
| cellofellow | Maybe when Ibex comes out I reinstall with encrypted volumes. | 03:14 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: it shouldn't matter, but I think that you can change that in either your samba settings or from network manager | 03:14 |
| alraune | Devourer:did you set the audigy as default in the preferences ??? | 03:14 |
| Devourer | alraune, not sure, how would I do that? | 03:14 |
| Kaspersky_ | When I try mounting my partition it tells me it doesn't exist. | 03:15 |
| Devourer | alraune, yeah. I think did. | 03:15 |
| Devourer | alraune, is there a .conf file I should edit? | 03:15 |
| alraune | Devourer:I'm just sitting in front of a kde desk right now, so cannot exactly say, where to look, play a little, or I will have to boot gnome .. | 03:15 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: Said another way, step by step, where do I enter my "Workgroup" name in Ubuntu | 03:15 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: try deleting the printer in Vista, then re-add it, then double check that you've Shared it properly (and note the name so you can add it manually) | 03:16 |
| bobertdos | Fezzler: You must edit it in /etc/samba/smb.conf | 03:16 |
| Fezzler | npope: What's BitchX | 03:16 |
| Devourer | alraune, should I do asoundconf? | 03:16 |

| FlipFalcon | i have a tablet and i wanna rotate the screen display like it does automatically in linux | 03:18 |
| lisa_ | cwill747, do you run ubuntu only? or another OS? | 03:18 |
| Kaspersky_ | what kind of partition should swap be, primary or logical?\ | 03:18 |

| Kaspersky_ | should it be at the beginning or the end? | 03:19 |
| Devourer | alraune, oh. What should the parameter be for set-default-card? | 03:19 |
| cellofellow | Kaspersky_: my swap is logical and since I never actually use it I don't notice any performance loss. My /home is logical too and I don't notice any performance loss. I'd say it doesn't matter | 03:19 |
| lisa_ | cwill747, ok great. im running Vista and need to check it for keylogers, spyware etc,. what program for windows is known to be pick up the most? | 03:19 |
| bobertdos | Fezzler: Just text search for it. It shouldn't be that difficult to find. By default, it's mshome. | 03:20 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: Can I tell windows to share the printer without reinstalling it? | 03:20 |
| lisa_ | cwill747, is kaspersky one of the best? | 03:20 |
| cwill747 | lisa_, well i use symantic anti-virus, and i've used avast! antivirus | 03:20 |
| Flannel | Kaspersky_: beginning is better. But also, closest to your linux partition. | 03:20 |

| Devourer | alraune, yeah. :) | 03:22 |
| Fezzler | fluffman: got it, doing it now | 03:22 |
| bobertdos | Fezzler: Then yes, you can share it on the windows side without reinstalling it. The first time you configure it in Ubuntu though, it will need to install its own drivers of course. | 03:22 |
| Flannel | DINKDINK: Not quite. You only get devices that exist. Try this though: ls dev | grep sd | 03:22 |
| FlipFalcon | i wanna change my screen orientation here | 03:22 |
| Fezzler | bobertdos: With samconfig edited, do I need to reboot Ubuntu to take effect? | 03:23 |
| dwhsix | so maybe this is offtopic, but is there a significant difference in performance for different wireless cards, using same protocll (e.g. 802.11g)? | 03:23 |

| Ziroday | FlipFalcon: have a look at xrandr or screen resolution | 03:23 |
| fluffman | Yud_Zroc: then click file > export as mp3 | 03:23 |
| bobertdos | Fezzler: either reboot completely or just restart samba | 03:23 |
| Ziroday | dwhsix: shouldn't be | 03:23 |

| Ziroday | michalski: like VNC over SSH? | 03:24 |
| Yud_Zroc | i want it to be an midi...not an mp3 | 03:24 |
| dwhsix | Ziroday: ok, that helps... then maybe I've got configuration a little wrong... | 03:24 |
| DINKDINK | most are sd* | 03:24 |
| fluffman | Fezzler: to restart samba without restarting the computer, type "sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart" | 03:24 |
| Fezzler | bobertdos: How do I restart just samba | 03:24 |
| bobertdos | Fezzler: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart | 03:24 |
| h00k | dwhsix, no, there shouldn't be. "shouldn't" as a keyword. Some have proprietary software like "ReadyBoost" | 03:24 |

| Fezzler | fluffman: printer on Windows shared | 03:24 |

| h00k | dwhsix, not ReadyBoost - 'er..whatever it's called | 03:24 |

| michalski | Ziroday: im looking for something more like im at tty1 on a computer and want to have an X session | 03:27 |

| alraune | Devourer:dont know, checked all alsa channels for raised voice and not being muted (icons above sliders have to be green) ?? | 03:28 |

| Fezzler | fluffman: So choose "Generic"? | 03:30 |
| Yud_Zroc | it wont let me do midi fluffman | 03:30 |
| Devourer | alraune, well, right now I can hear sound from Amarok, and the only setting that seems to do anything in alsamixer is the Master channela nd the PCM Front channel. | 03:30 |
| seth_slade | I plan to test html and php on it without having it available to the "outside world" | 03:30 |
| bobertdos | FlipFalcon: Hmm, that could be tricky. I don't know if there are proprietary drivers for Trident cards. | 03:30 |
| dick-richardson | anyone know what port the apcupsd-cgi web interface uses? | 03:30 |
| Devourer | alraune, do you think Pidgin would be using a different channel? | 03:30 |

| DUG | well i did ask one an hour ago | 03:43 |
| Fezzler | Crap. Ha. :) I have the one printer that doesn't work with Ubuntu via Windows. Lexmark P4350 | 03:43 |
| bazhang | DUG, then ask again | 03:44 |
| alraune | Devourer: should check it with a static file like the amarok | 03:44 |
| fluffman | visf: cd to the directory you want, then type "file-roller *.tar" | 03:44 |
| DUG | how do i get my images files to be saveed at their highest resolution | 03:44 |
| visf | thanks fluffman | 03:44 |
| histo | visf: that will just pop up file roller | 03:44 |
| Devourer | alraune, what do you mean? Play the same file with Amarok? | 03:44 |
| Devourer | alraune, it sounds like it's having trouble keeping the buffer going. | 03:45 |
| bazhang | DUG, from which site; that is somewhat dependent on what they allow | 03:45 |
| visf | is there a all in one command histo? | 03:45 |
| fluffman | visf: otherwise, to untar, type "tar -xvzf *.tar" once you're in the directory | 03:45 |
| alraune | Devourer: streaming is addicted to various circumsatnces... download a song file ? static, stream=dynamic | 03:45 |
| DUG | no it is dependent on file type and resolution | 03:45 |
| visf | thanks again fluffman | 03:45 |
| Devourer | alraune, well, I wasn't streaming a file. I was just playing an mp3. | 03:45 |
| FlipFalcon | nickrud: i just get bash when i do that | 03:45 |
| nickrud | DUG heh. probably a few thousand lines through here in an hour, no one remembers the question ;) | 03:45 |
| bazhang | DUG, you are talking about downloading from a website? which one. | 03:45 |
| DUG | google images | 03:46 |
| alraune | Devourer: buffer is a problem of 1)server 2)connection 3) browser ) your hardware | 03:46 |

| FlipFalcon | nickrud?? | 03:46 |
| histo | nickrud: not like you can't change them back | 03:46 |
| histo | DUG: right click on the image and save the file | 03:47 |
| alraune | Devourer: crackling as playing a file from hd ? cpu overload (e.g. hundrets of differntprogs in background ?) | 03:47 |
| nickrud | FlipFalcon last time I did that, my panel stuff got all messed up | 03:47 |
| histo | DUG: do you want to download all of them at once? | 03:47 |
| DUG | its aves it at gimps lowest reasolution | 03:47 |
| RequinB4 | DUG - are you opening the file before saving it? just save the file. If you do that (or use wget) you'll get the same quality as is hosted on the server | 03:47 |
| Devourer | alraune, it says VLC is only using around 3% of the CPU, and nothing else is taking up and CPU. | 03:47 |
| FlipFalcon | nickrud why can't i change my screen orientation | 03:48 |
| Devourer | alraune, any significant chunks anyways. | 03:48 |
| DUG | save image ass | 03:48 |

| alec | im not sure, again not the most linux savy, i start the computer with the ubuntu disk in, it gives me the choice of how i want to run it, when i tried to install it got a long way through and then froze, so i tried to run from the disk, i installed from there, it got a long way through the install and i got that error message | 05:12 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: Do you have all the gstreamer codecs installed? | 05:12 |
| Stormx2 | thiefness, you're compiling the source, not the package itself. | 05:12 |
| binskipy2u | been on youtube, mplayer plugin, stuff like that | 05:12 |
| binskipy2u | its shotty in 64bit | 05:12 |
| Stormx2 | thiefness, did you check backprots like I suggested/ | 05:12 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: yeah the mp3 plays but there is no sound coming out | 05:12 |
| binskipy2u | in 32bit EVERYTHING works | 05:12 |
| binskipy2u | even my scanner | 05:12 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: except on youtube | 05:12 |
| binskipy2u | but NOT in 64bit | 05:12 |
| thiefness | i already had backport repo enabled, synaptic didn't find any easycam packages | 05:13 |
| nickrud | alec don't need to be linux savvy, just give a good description of what you do, and what you see at each stage ;) | 05:13 |
| binskipy2u | but 64bit SEES all ram,, but my scanner wont work | 05:13 |
| Stormx2 | binskipy2u: So what do you want us to do? | 05:13 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: but do you KNOW if you have all the gstreamer codecs properly installed | 05:13 |
| binskipy2u | ok ill type it again | 05:13 |
| Pici | !enter | 05:13 |
| ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:13 |
| murlidhar | !ops ads mircbraad | 05:13 |
| ubottu | murlidhar: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:13 |
| nickrud | alec but I'd suggest starting by running the disk check on the boot screen, make sure no files were corrupted | 05:13 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: well, ubuntu asked me if I wanted them installed and I said yes (there were 2 of them with that similar name) | 05:13 |
| Pici | murlidhar: ? | 05:13 |
| binskipy2u | is there any "realworld" advantage to installing a 32bit OS for ubuntu, THEN installing the server kernel to see ALL THE RAM, ? | 05:14 |
| binskipy2u | or just install the 32bit, and the hell with the 750mb of ram | 05:14 |
| murlidhar | Pici: i got a pm giving ads | 05:14 |
| alec | nickrud: ok, after i went through all the install, the partitioner opened and didnt finish and i got the error message i wrote out earlier | 05:14 |
| Pici | murlidhar: That user isnt in this channel. | 05:14 |
| hackmo | anyone here having any issues with sound? | 05:14 |
| nickrud | ah, so it happened during the partitioning phase of the install? | 05:14 |
| Pici | murlidhar: its being reported in #freenode though. | 05:14 |
| Stormx2 | murlidhar, take it to #freenode. Everyone's been getting it. | 05:15 |
| nickrud | alec (the install actually takes place after partitioning, you mean you booted to the desktop and started the install). So, run that disk check, make sure it's good | 05:15 |
| murlidhar | he might have changed his name since he gave me two ads the first one from gary andrews then after changing his name to mircbraad | 05:16 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: Did you restart the player after the install? | 05:16 |
| Stormx2 | binskipy2u; How is the server kernel going to let you see all your RAM? Have you even investigated why you can't see the 750MB? Do you even need it? | 05:16 |
| alec | nickrud: ok, how do i do that exactly? is it possible or likely that when i downloaded ubuntu i had a problem? | 05:16 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: yeah I rebooted the box | 05:16 |
| binskipy2u | 32 bit has a 3.2gig limitation | 05:16 |
| Stormx2 | murlidhar, #freenode please. | 05:16 |
| rot | hello...anyone have an idea why NetworkManager isn't place inside the init.d??? | 05:16 |
| binskipy2u | ive booted up with a server kernel live cd | 05:16 |
| binskipy2u | and it sees it all | 05:16 |
| binskipy2u | so the SERVER kernel sees it all | 05:16 |
| nickrud | alec boot the cd, and on the start screen there's an option to check the disk. If it's bad, do the md5sum check (I'll give you a link) of the iso you downloaded. If it's good, burn again, but slowly | 05:17 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: I assume the drivers work well since it's playing stuff on youtube | 05:17 |
| nickrud | !md5 | alec | 05:17 |
| ubottu | alec: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 05:17 |
| binskipy2u | does it utilize it all? and is it worth doing a full install of 32bit and installing the se4rfver kernel so y7ou can see and use all the ram | 05:17 |
| murlidhar | Stormx2: yes saw it but i have tried sudo apt-get update --fix-missing too. | 05:17 |
| thiefness | Stormx2: it doesn't actually have any make files or anything o_0 | 05:17 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: Yeah, that would mean Pulseaudio is fine. You're running Hardy, right? | 05:17 |
| alec | nickrud: i did burn at the slowest speed possible | 05:18 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: 8.04 indeed | 05:18 |
| Stormx2 | thiefness: lemme have a look, one tik. | 05:18 |
| alec | nickrud:im checking disk | 05:18 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: flash 9 or 10? | 05:18 |
| inhuma1 | I had an amateur radio related question... trying to find and install a FSK decoder any ideas? Does this tiny little thing not make for anyone else ? http://www.ele.uva.es/~jesus/rtty/rtty-2.0/rtty-2.0.tar.gz | 05:18 |
| binskipy2u | ok 1162 people in here, ill type it again.. would there be a performance advantate to installing a 32bit Ubuntu, then installing a server kernel so the OS see's all my ram, and will it make use of the extra 700mb it will then see??? | 05:18 |
| Stormx2 | thiefness, are you SURE this is the only way you can install your cam? | 05:19 |
| CShadowRun | apt-get crashed my system :O (Setting up package kvm.) | 05:19 |
| thiefness | Stormx2: nope, not even sure it would work, but supposedly it's generally the easiest option if it works.. :P | 05:19 |
| Stormx2 | Uhg | 05:19 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: the latest version I presume but it's a "gnash flash" or something ( a choice given by firefox when you install flash players) | 05:19 |
| Stormx2 | Well | 05:19 |
| Stormx2 | it never helped me | 05:19 |
| Stormx2 | I've only ever set up 2 webcams mind. | 05:19 |
| Stormx2 | What's your webcam make/model, thiefness? | 05:20 |
| nickrud | binskipy2u probably 30 or 40 (at most) actually watching. | 05:20 |
| thiefness | Stormx2: dynex webcam, don't know the make | 05:20 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: oi! Okay, that doesn't help me. What are your settings in System->Preferences->Sound? | 05:20 |
| murlidhar | binskipy2u: u mean u want to use ubuntu server? | 05:20 |
| Stormx2 | thiefness, it doesn't say anywhere? There's not a sticker on the bottom? | 05:20 |
| binskipy2u | NOOOOOOOOOOO i want to utilize the server kernel in my 32bit install that works perfectly.. so itll then see ALL MY RAM | 05:20 |
| sunny | Hello............... please look at this picture: http://img112.imageshack.us/img112/6294/52847386hf4.jpg is there anyway to make that smaller? when i open anything on ubuntu, it takes my whole screen because of the sizes of these bars... any solutions? | 05:21 |
| thiefness | Stormx2: nope | 05:21 |
| nickrud | binskipy2u I think you might get some better insight on the server kernel on #ubuntu-server. Maybe | 05:21 |
| Stormx2 | binskipy2u: Why do you need so much RAM? Up until a week ago I was running on the same amount of RAM that your machine isn't seeing. | 05:21 |
| binskipy2u | why not use it all if you can?????????? | 05:21 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: autodetect almost everything (except sound capture (ALSA) and Default Mixer Tracks (Nvidia CK804)) | 05:21 |
| Stormx2 | binskipy2u, because you're bloody annoying? | 05:21 |
| nickrud | Stormx2 he's been asking a rational question, just getting frustrated at no answer :) | 05:21 |
| purplestar | how do I remove GRUB from my external USB HDD? | 05:22 |
| Stormx2 | >.> sorry. | 05:22 |
| thiefness | Stormx2: lsusb gives this: Bus 002 Device 004: ID 05a9:8519 OmniVision Technologies, Inc. | 05:22 |
| binskipy2u | gee thanks | 05:22 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: pls settle down and be nice to others | 05:22 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: Okay, and can you hear the test beeps? | 05:22 |
| scarface88 | God I love ubuntu minus the fact that I can't connect to my ubuntu machine (iron) from my mac (Zinc) any clues on how to get the mac to be able to read and write to shared directories on the ubuntu box? | 05:22 |
| nickrud | binskipy2u no one is sure about an answer for you. I know a few things about the server kernel, but have never timed the differences. | 05:22 |
| Stormx2 | purplestar, wow, your first input since I joined this channel. Please settle down and help people and not look for people to tell off. | 05:22 |
| sunny | Hello............... please look at this picture: http://img112.imageshack.us/img112/6294/52847386hf4.jpg is there anyway to make that smaller? when i open anything on ubuntu, it takes my whole screen because of the sizes of these bars... any solutions? | 05:23 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: be nice now please | 05:23 |
| meoblast001 | HOME | 05:23 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: Im not sure what you mean ? there are beeps emenating from my pc case, is that what you mean ? | 05:23 |
| purplestar | how do I remove GRUB from my external USB HDD? | 05:23 |
| Stormx2 | purplestar: What do you want it replaced with? | 05:23 |
| meoblast001 | its home in here | 05:23 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: nothing | 05:23 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: empty | 05:23 |
| binskipy2u | so EVERYONE in here is using ubuntu and sees ALL THEIR RAM | 05:23 |
| binskipy2u | so NO ONE IN HERE has over 3.2 gigs ram? | 05:23 |
| binskipy2u | right? | 05:23 |
| Flannel | !caps | binskipy2u | 05:24 |
| Stormx2 | binskipy2u: Turn off caps lock for pete's sake. | 05:24 |
| binskipy2u | that CAME with their computer | 05:24 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: i removed Ubuntu from it, no need for GRUB there anymore. Im now running ubuntu from virtualbox | 05:24 |
| meoblast001 | me and some Yud_Zroc guy are haning out in ##windows doing a service to the Ubuntu community if you knwo what i mean | 05:24 |
| bobertdos | No, I mean, when you test the settings in the Sound menu, do they work? | 05:24 |
| purplestar | binarydigit: I have 2GB RAM | 05:24 |
| sunny | Hello............... please look at this picture: http://img112.imageshack.us/img112/6294/52847386hf4.jpg is there anyway to make that smaller? when i open anything on ubuntu, it takes my whole screen because of the sizes of these bars... any solutions? | 05:24 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about remove grub | 05:25 |
| murlidhar | purplestar: is ur grub written in the external HDD mbr? | 05:25 |

| binskipy2u | what??????????thats what i just copy'd and pasted | 05:25 |
| binskipy2u | i didnt shought | 05:25 |
| thia | allow | 05:25 |
| Roy_Muzz | binskipy2, you need to use a 64 bit version of linux in my opinion | 05:25 |
| murlidhar | !grub | purplestar | 05:25 |
| ubottu | purplestar: 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 | 05:25 |
| nividiauser412 | Hello i am having sound stuttering when playing music. How can i fix this | 05:25 |
| purplestar | murlidhar: yes. when I boot my PC, i press f9, and then it gives me menu. I choose my exrternal USB HDD which then loads grub menu | 05:26 |
| binskipy2u | i know roy.. but the codecs and multimedia dont play like they do in 32bit | 05:26 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | terminal command to flush the IPv6 routing table please | 05:26 |
| Stormx2 | purplestar: The Super GRUB disk can do it. | 05:26 |
| binskipy2u | there's only 3 codecs in the codec folder for 64bit, there's many many many more in 32bit | 05:26 |
| Yud_Zroc_ | 8 gigs of ram....kinda need 64bit | 05:26 |
| sunny | scarface88, no i mean the size of the screen... like on windows, things are much smaller... | 05:26 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: yeah I got that CD too :) i forgot | 05:26 |
| murlidhar | Stormx2: yes saw it but i have tried sudo apt-get update --fix-missing too. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 05:26 |
| Roy_Muzz | binskipy2u, unfortunately you may need to choose :( | 05:26 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: but im scared it will remove my C: MBR which I need | 05:26 |
| murlidhar | Stormx2: sorry unwanted oe | 05:27 |
| purplestar | i guess it can just keep GRUB on my external USB HDD! wont do any harm :P | 05:27 |
| nickrud | sunny gconf-editor /desktop/gnome/interface , look at the keys toolbar_icon_size and toolbar_style | 05:27 |
| binskipy2u | so use 64bit and have online streaming freeze, blank screen or not work at all, but Ill see all my ram | 05:27 |
| binskipy2u | or use 32bit see everything beautifully, and miss over 700mb | 05:27 |
| meoblast001 | Yud_Zroc_: hi wuts up.... your in here now too =P | 05:27 |
| Stormx2 | purplestar: How many disks do you have? | 05:27 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: its good to see you not abusing people for awhile, good boy :) | 05:27 |
| alec | nickrud: checked the disk and there are no errors | 05:27 |
| sunny | nickrud, will look for it now.. thanks,,,,, | 05:27 |
| Stormx2 | binskipy2u, we know! Can you stop saying the same thing over and over again | 05:28 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: 2 HDD. one internal, and one external USB HDD. I been loading Ubuntu fromm the external one | 05:28 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: but I dont need it anymore | 05:28 |
| vjl | anyone know anything about port 113? | 05:28 |
| nickrud | alec not sure then. | 05:28 |
| murlidhar | binskipy2u: doesn't all ur ram recognised by 32 bit ? | 05:28 |
| binskipy2u | no | 05:28 |
| Stormx2 | purplestar, you're going straight onto my ignore list. Thanks a lot. I just spent the past 5 minutes googling your problem and you treat me like a child. What is with you? | 05:28 |
| binskipy2u | over 700 is missing | 05:28 |
| dEagLE | hi all | 05:28 |
| purplestar | Stormx2: pls behave. and sit in the corner until you stop being so abusive towards others. thanks | 05:29 |
| nickrud | binskipy2u no one has the answer, so chill for a bit. Ask the complete question every 15 minutes or so, if someone knows the answer they will answer | 05:29 |
| sjovan | !ask | vjl | 05:29 |
| ubottu | vjl: 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. :-) | 05:29 |
| dEagLE | i need to enable my desktop icons .. how can i enable it.. | 05:29 |
| nickrud | purplestar that is not helpful | 05:29 |
| alec | nickrud: the computer im trying to put it on is pretty old and slow, i use ubuntu so i dont know about other distos, is the another one i should install? | 05:29 |
| coz_ | dEagLE, gnome or kde | 05:29 |
| Stormx2 | nickrud: my god, that has to be the most selfish person ever. | 05:29 |
| murlidhar | binskipy2u: and how much ram do ya hve? | 05:29 |
| binskipy2u | 4gigs | 05:29 |
| dEagLE | gnome | 05:29 |
| Yud_Zroc_ | !rude | purplestar | 05:29 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about rude | 05:29 |
| Wickerman | hi guys | 05:29 |
| vjl | i'm not asking to ask a question. that was the question? do you know anything about port 113? | 05:29 |
| nickrud | Stormx2 not the worst. | 05:30 |
| coz_ | dEagLE, and did you do something in gconf to turn them off say apps/nautilust/shoe_desktop and disable t hat? | 05:30 |
| sol1dus | how do i changed the permissions my usb device is mounted with? is this done via udev rules? | 05:30 |
| coz_ | dEagLE, show_desktop | 05:30 |
| Stormx2 | nickrud, ehh I know. I'm just irritable. People across the street are leaving for work and I'm still not tired. | 05:30 |
| vjl | i can elucidate by asking...does anyone know the security vulnerabitlities of port 113 and/or should i worry about it when i join an irc program that firestarter detects hits on that port | 05:30 |
| dEagLE | yea .. exactly | 05:30 |
| dEagLE | so i want to get back in there n enable the desktop | 05:30 |
| bobertdos | bogdan: I'd recommend installing the rest of the gstreamer codes and maybe rebuilding the gstramer registry. | 05:31 |
| coz_ | dEagLE, go to gconf-editor maneaunver to apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop | 05:31 |
| Stormx2 | sol1dus, you talking about a usb pen drive? GNOME automatically mounts them and you SHOULD have full r/w permissions if the driver allows it. | 05:31 |
| coz_ | dEagLE, make sure show_desktop is enabled | 05:31 |
| sunny | nickrud, so what do change... there is no numeric value to change to lower????????? gconf-editor /desktop/gnome/interface | 05:31 |
| murlidhar | binskipy2u: strange i thought any 32bit distro could read upto 4 gigs of ram | 05:31 |
| binskipy2u | i guess not, i'm using ubuntu 8.04.1 | 05:32 |
| Jaredu | quick question guys | 05:32 |
| HappyHater | murlidhar, nah, what kernel you using? | 05:32 |
| nickrud | sunny no, the acceptable values will show in the description when you select the keys. Changing toobar_style to icons helps a lot | 05:32 |
| Jaredu | im trying to setup my dual monitors but it wont let me save to my xorg.conf to keep settings because it cant delete my backup xorg.conf | 05:32 |
| Jaredu | so how do i get rid of the backup | 05:32 |
| sol1dus | stormx2: im talkin about my sandisk mp3 player.. i'm actually using xubuntu | 05:32 |
| murlidhar | HappyHater: would be better if u ask binskipy2u | 05:33 |
| binskipy2u | 2.6.24-19 generic | 05:33 |
| HappyHater | heh sorry | 05:33 |
| bogdan | bobertdos: ok ok, very very shamefully, I will admit I have found the problem: in the sound preferences, I had let the playback device to autodetect instead of finding the right one... so.. sorry for all the fuss :( | 05:33 |
| binskipy2u | that installs with 8.04.1 | 05:33 |
| Jaredu | can anyone help? :) | 05:33 |
| Stormx2 | sol1dus, unfortunately I don't know anything about xubuntu auto-mounts. | 05:33 |

| nickrud | binskipy2u #ubuntu-server , or maybe #ubuntu-offtopic. the latter often has dev's floating around, and if they're not playing too much they answer that kind of question | 05:34 |

| thiefness | If I downloaded a source package from synaptik, where would I find it? | 05:35 |
| Stormx2 | Jaredu, the backup will most likely be in /etc/X11. Open a terminal, navigate there, then move the backup to a safe place (mv is move) | 05:35 |
| sunny | nickrud, i changed them, but did not see any change, does require a reboot? | 05:35 |
| Stormx2 | thiefness, check your home directory? | 05:35 |
| nickrud | sunny no, just changing the key to icons is sufficient | 05:36 |
| HappyHater | binskipy2u, depending how much ram you have you might need to use the bigmem kernel... had a problem with my all my ram not showing before, but it was because of a 486 kernel | 05:36 |
| Jaredu | i found the backup but how do i delete it? what do you mean by safe place o.O | 05:36 |
| hackmo | who wants to see naked pictures of my girlfriend? | 05:36 |

| jack-desktop | is there anyway to check what java you have installed? | 05:38 |
| C0nn0R | Stormx2: I haven't many pages on the bug but i'll find a link. | 05:39 |
| mentat | quick question | 05:39 |
| tritium | jack-desktop: java-version (at the cli) | 05:39 |

| legend2440 | Jaredu: sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup or whatever its called. you need sudo for root permission to delete it | 05:40 |
| jack-desktop | is OpenJDK the recommended one? i think i read somewhere that sun was better? | 05:40 |
| Jaredu | ah | 05:40 |
| Jaredu | lemme see | 05:40 |
| murlidhar | Jaredu: safe place means so that if u ever require it u could again use it | 05:40 |
| Jaredu | now it gives me Unable to create new X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'. | 05:40 |
| therealnanotube | jack-desktop: if everything works for you, no reason to change. | 05:40 |
| Jaredu | ugh >.< | 05:40 |
| jack-desktop | therealnanotube: well some java apps are buggy, like windows will appear to be huge, like 10 times the size of the screen | 05:41 |
| murlidhar | damn with the advertisements !!!!!!!!!! | 05:41 |

| Stormx2 | LinuxIST, sounds like the archive is corrupt | 05:42 |
| shivk | just a script for http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=400236 which i also did but it didn't work either | 05:42 |

| murlidhar | Jaredu: just manually check from nautilus or whatever file manager ur are using if the back up is at /etc/x1 | 05:44 |
| Stormx2 | murlidhar, means /etc/X11 | 05:44 |
| acrousey | gravitica: noting, it just freezes. I've left it going for a few hours once because I was thinking it could be a larger file, but it didn't do anything. | 05:44 |

| acrousey | i haven't tried getting it through the command line because I don't know what to get there | 05:45 |
| Stormx2 | Jaredu: sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup-old | 05:46 |
| Jaredu | now it tells me unable to remove old xorg.conf.backup | 05:46 |
| Jaredu | when i do that it says it cannot create new | 05:46 |
| Stormx2 | Jaredu, you ARE running this program using sudo/gksudo, right? | 05:46 |
| Jaredu | im using terminal | 05:46 |
| mentat | could someone tell me what the command is to install and enable REMOTE DESKTOP on my ubuntu server that i have ssh access to please | 05:46 |
| Stormx2 | Jaredu: Ah ha. Did you run it with sudo/gksudo? | 05:46 |
| Jaredu | im not running the nvidia thing with it | 05:46 |
| Jaredu | how would i do that? o.O | 05:47 |
| Stormx2 | Jaredu, gksudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings | 05:47 |
| Yud_Zroc | how do i make it so i can alt-tab | 05:48 |
| Jaredu | ahh | 05:48 |
| Jaredu | that worked lol | 05:48 |
| gravitica | Just to be clear, did you click on the triangle to open the black console in synaptic and it wasn't asking y/n on anything? | 05:48 |
| Jaredu | sweet | 05:48 |
| mentat | anyone know how? | 05:48 |
| Stormx2 | mentat: So you want to install an SSH server? Or an RDP server? | 05:48 |
| Jaredu | whats the quickest way to restart x btw? | 05:48 |
| Stormx2 | Jaredu Ctrl + Alt + Backspace I suppose. | 05:49 |
| Yud_Zroc | ctrl alt backspace | 05:49 |
| Jaredu | kk | 05:49 |
| Jaredu | brb | 05:49 |
| Stormx2 | Be sure to save work! | 05:49 |

| untraceable | does anyone know of a trusted driver for an atheros 5008 for ndis wrapper | 05:49 |
| mentat | Stormx2: i want to set it up thru ssh and then beable to remote desktop from my home pc to the server | 05:49 |
| mentat | that make sense? | 05:50 |
| Stormx2 | mentat, you need to be clearer about what you want. You want to tunnel X over SSH? Or just plain ol' SSH? | 05:50 |
| Yud_Zroc | how do i make it so i can alt-tab in ubuntu | 05:50 |
| mentat | let me back up | 05:50 |
| Stormx2 | Yud_Zroc, hold alt. press tab. | 05:50 |

| Fezzler | My main routers for my home network are downstairs. I have a wire up to my iMac (ubuntu) upstairs. I want to put upstairs printer on network. Do I need a small "hub" or router upstairs that splits port thers? | 05:50 |
| meoblast001 | that was the best IRC adventure ever | 05:50 |
| meoblast001 | Yud_Zroc: lets do it again | 05:51 |
| mentat | before i could remote desktop from my ubuntu desktop to my ubuntu server hosted overseas | 05:51 |
| Jared1 | what was the command to get to nvidia settings again via gksudo? | 05:51 |
| meoblast001 | oh wait | 05:51 |
| mentat | using the remote desktop viewer | 05:51 |
| meoblast001 | this isn't #off-topic O_o | 05:51 |
| Yud_Zroc | oh lol when did they add that | 05:51 |
| mentat | i uninstalled it i think on the server side | 05:51 |
| mentat | now wasn to re-enable or install it | 05:51 |
| Stormx2 | mentat, ubuntu server doesn't come with X. You'd need to install a desktop environment before you can use remote desktop. | 05:51 |
| Jared1 | nvm got it | 05:52 |
| mentat | Stormx2: when i say server i mean the "server" is really running ubuntu desktop | 05:52 |
| Stormx2 | So, not a server? | 05:52 |
| meoblast001 | how do i add pulse support for ADoBEEE fLASHEr? | 05:52 |
| mentat | no | 05:52 |
| untraceable | does anyone know of a trusted driver for an atheros 5008 for ndis wrapper | 05:52 |
| mentat | its just another desktop with a 100/100 connection | 05:52 |
| mentat | i was able to remote desktop view earlier today | 05:53 |
| mentat | but not now | 05:53 |
| Stormx2 | mentat: Well, GNOME's default VNC server is vino | 05:53 |
| mentat | ah | 05:53 |
| mentat | i removed it | 05:53 |
| mentat | :( | 05:53 |
| mentat | just re-install ? | 05:53 |
| FloodBot1 | mentat: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:53 |
| mentat | and it works by default? | 05:53 |
| Stormx2 | mentat, yeah. | 05:53 |
| mentat | let me try | 05:53 |
| mentat | sudo apt-get vino | 05:53 |
| Yud_Zroc | is it possible to use ubuntu server ed for a reguar computer and the differences | 05:53 |

| Stormx2 | Ah, kay. | 05:54 |
| mentat | Stormx2: do i need to conifg anything once its installed? | 05:55 |
| Stormx2 | theRealBall, A google search for "userbase statistics on ubuntu vs opensuse?" reveals http://www.starryhope.com/tech/2007/ubuntu-just-how-popular-is-it/ as the first result | 05:55 |
| Johnny | damn bots | 05:55 |
| Stormx2 | mentat: Possibly. Its configured under gconf, so you'll need to muck around with gconftool to configure it I think. | 05:56 |
| theRealBall | thanks | 05:56 |
| murlidhar | i am using openbox session . and i want to see my network connection on my desktop . how do i do that ? | 05:56 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | murlidhar: do you mean a shortcut(link) to Network Manager ? | 05:57 |
| mentat | Stormx2: what is gconf ? | 05:57 |
| acrousey | what's up with all the spam? | 05:57 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | gconf-editor | 05:57 |
| Starnestommy | acrousey: who did you get it from? | 05:57 |
| smguy | do .exe files work on ubuntu? | 05:57 |
| murlidhar | ManualOverDozer8: no i need the status of network like graphing etc | 05:58 |
| Stormx2 | mentat, gnome configuration repository. the gnome equivilent of the windows registry, but better organised. | 05:58 |
| Starnestommy | smguy: you need wine for that, but yes | 05:58 |
| smguy | okay | 05:58 |
| smguy | is wine pretty easy to set up? | 05:58 |
| Stormx2 | ManualOverDozer8: He's over SSH. gconf-editor is GUI. No good. | 05:58 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | murlidhar: maybe something like NetMonitor, cant say it works perfect for all cards though | 05:58 |
| acrousey | Tyler_Number_1 | 05:58 |
| Starnestommy | smguy: yes | 05:58 |
| Stormx2 | smguy, yep. | 05:58 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | murlidhar: i have seen it work, and sometimes not. | 05:58 |
| acrousey | another was a Tutu something | 05:58 |
| smguy | okay, thanks | 05:58 |
| Stormx2 | smguy, most configuration is done under "wineconfig" after you've installed. | 05:59 |
| Starnestommy | acrousey: thanks for letting me know. I'm one of this network's staff members who is trying to eliminate this spammer | 05:59 |
| acrousey | and another was about IRC idol | 05:59 |
| smguy | okay | 05:59 |
| smguy | can i find it in synaptic? | 05:59 |
| acrousey | yeah, no prob man | 05:59 |
| Starnestommy | smguy: yes | 05:59 |
| Stormx2 | Starnestommy; His IP is 12.207.127.233 | 05:59 |
| murlidhar | acrousey: just /quote mode acrousey +E | 05:59 |
| Stormx2 | 12.207.127.233: it's just the one guy. | 05:59 |
| smguy | okay thanks | 05:59 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | Tyler_Number_1 last one to spam me with the typical BRA junk | 05:59 |
| Stormx2 | Gah. Damn you copy & paste & tiredness. | 05:59 |
| mentat | is there a command line to enable VINO to accept remote desktop connections? | 05:59 |
| Stormx2 | mentat: Again, you'll need to use gconftool | 06:00 |
| dfg | . | 06:00 |
| mentat | that will config the remote system? | 06:00 |
| Stormx2 | It'll allow you to configure vino on whatever system you're running gconftool on. | 06:00 |
| acrousey | murlidhar, i'm kind of new to IRC. What will that do? | 06:00 |
| Starnestommy | acrousey: mode +E blocks all messages from users that have not identified to nickserv | 06:01 |
| acrousey | oh | 06:01 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | Stormx2: that helps, i been blocking them as they go along, but doesnt seem to use the same screenname, so prob useless to even block them | 06:01 |
| newuser_ | is it possible to boot ubuntu from a usb drive using grub. My computer does not support booting from usb | 06:01 |
| murlidhar | acrousey: that will change ur mode to E . that means u won't get any personal messages unless identified my nickserv | 06:01 |
| Starnestommy | acrousey: you may need to register before doing that. See /msg nickserv help register | 06:02 |
| Lvl21nerd | how is Xfce different from KDE? | 06:02 |

| luis | i was trying to save some files on it but i cant because of it can u help me pls?? | 06:03 |
| murlidhar | Starnestommy: i mean i am registered but haven't identified to nickserv | 06:03 |
| Stormx2 | Yud_Zroc, yes. | 06:03 |
| debasys | if everyday i have to use two different networks [work/home] with both having static IP n DNS setiings, what is the best way to save and switch between them? | 06:03 |
| murlidhar | geeze | 06:03 |
| Yud_Zroc | so i can switch when i log out then :) | 06:03 |
| Lvl21nerd | Stormx2: i just got my Ubuntu install setup how i like it....i dont want to have to do that again | 06:03 |
| Stormx2 | Yud_Zroc, just install the following packages: ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop | 06:04 |
| Yud_Zroc | ah oik | 06:04 |
| Yud_Zroc | tyvm | 06:04 |
| Stormx2 | Lvl21nerd, okay. who's making you do it again? | 06:04 |
| debasys | my net admin saved nameserver of Work network in /etc/resolv.conf , but i think i have to delete that to use my Home network | 06:04 |
| HappyHater | that's gonna be a mess | 06:04 |
| Stormx2 | HappyHater, what is? | 06:04 |
| Lvl21nerd | Stormx2: making me do what? | 06:04 |
| debasys | so is there a proper way to save and switch between both networks? | 06:04 |
| debasys | both are wired networks btw | 06:05 |
| HappyHater | having all those apps from those 3 DE's | 06:05 |
| Stormx2 | Lvl21nerd: Seriously, what's your attention span, like, a few seconds? You just said "I don't want to setup ubuntu how i like it again" and I asked "who's making you?" It's really not hard to follow. | 06:05 |
| Stormx2 | That's beside the point anyway | 06:05 |
| luis | so let me refresh my question, i need to save some files to carry on with me on a usb memory stick, but my xubuntu just dont detect it, is there any way i can fix this, can someone help me pls?? | 06:05 |
| Stormx2 | because installing another DE won't uninstall your existing DE. In short, you won't lose your setup. | 06:05 |
| [z]neo | anyone here already using nomachine? nxserver and nxclient? | 06:06 |

| Lvl21nerd | Stormx2: u dont have to be so rude, and i didnt say anyone was making me do anything...but i a most familliar with Ubuntu right now so its likely that i would go back after trying out some other distro | 06:06 |
| Stormx2 | HappyHater, it's more files, but it's not really messy | 06:06 |

| Lvl21nerd | johnny: did u just get a message about caskets? | 06:07 |
| Starnestommy | Lvl21nerd: from who? | 06:08 |
| Stormx2 | Lvl21nerd, okay. But seriously, the only way you can find out the differences between xfce and kde is by using them. Screenshots only go some of the way. | 06:08 |
| Johnny | yes | 06:08 |
| Lvl21nerd | Starnestommy: shite i dont remember | 06:08 |
| Lvl21nerd | johnny: so did i....was all black and green | 06:08 |

| mbrigdan | Starnestommy: OPERSERV does, most of the time | 06:14 |
| Stormx2 | I've had a dozen messages tonight. | 06:14 |
| jhenisethe4th | hey can anyone help someone completely brand new and clueless about ubuntu | 06:14 |
| Starnestommy | mbrigdan: in anope but not atheme | 06:14 |
| mbrigdan | oh | 06:14 |
| Stormx2 | jhenisethe4th, sure. What do you need? | 06:14 |
| remote | jhenisethe4th: ask | 06:14 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | giving them notice, that they are bothering you is what they want, dont give them what they want i just ignoree them, and all is good | 06:14 |
| jhenisethe4th | where do i start... | 06:14 |
| bitfrost | is there a way that can kill the connection from those | 06:14 |
| HappyHater | at least the opers here are fighting it... the same tired old spambots have been on undernet for the past 5 years | 06:14 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jhenisethe4th: help.ubuntu.com may be a place to start. | 06:15 |
| remote | jhenisethe4th: you boot | 06:15 |
| Stormx2 | At the beginning of course :O | 06:15 |
| mbrigdan | remote: For the commands and stuff that X runs to start gnome for example | 06:15 |
| jhenisethe4th | how do i boot back to windows? | 06:15 |
| Starnestommy | bitfrost: staff are working on it, including myself | 06:15 |
| Stormx2 | Hahaha | 06:15 |
| Stormx2 | A sensible first question | 06:15 |
| Keppi | I have a printer shared thru cups and i can access cups thru http;//localhost:631, but I can't access it from another workstation. Any ideas? | 06:15 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jhenisethe4th: there is an option in GRUB to boot to another OS | 06:15 |
| remote | mbrigdan: .xinitrc | 06:15 |
| remote | man xinit | 06:15 |
| jhenisethe4th | is that where you hit escape during boot? | 06:15 |
| mbrigdan | remote: GDM doesn't load that if it loads a session | 06:15 |
| Stormx2 | jhenisethe4th, when you boot your computer, you should get a message like "Press Esc to show GRUB". Press Esc. Go to the bottom of the list (where windows is) and press enter. | 06:15 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jhenisethe4th: that screen yes | 06:15 |
| bitfrost | If anything I can do for help tell me meanwhile good luck! | 06:15 |

| remote | mbrigdan: did you read the gdm doc? | 06:16 |
| mbrigdan | remote: I have edited the file before, its called gnome.desktop, but I can't find where it is | 06:17 |
| Stormx2 | !firewall | Keppi | 06:17 |
| ubottu | Keppi: 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). | 06:17 |
| remote | mbrigdan: you can. | 06:17 |
| jhenisethe4th | thats what im thinking may have happened.. but there are like 50 gb of unaccounted for data which i think is the windows partition | 06:17 |
| newuser_ | I am having problems with nautilus, after logging in there is an error message about bonobo and something about a problem with a server... Any experienced this issue??? | 06:17 |

| evo | i was just about to ask if the image had been corrupted | 07:31 |
| evo | or possible rather | 07:31 |
| murlidhar | evo: are u sure it is a grub not installation menu where the first option is "load linux" or something like that | 07:32 |
| evo | grub> | 07:32 |
| evo | that is the first thing i am greeted with | 07:32 |
| murlidhar | evo: does ur grub show any image ? | 07:32 |
| tovella | evo: ... then again, it could be that the CD, itself was somehow corrupted, during it's creation. | 07:32 |
| evo | image as in a picture? | 07:32 |
| murlidhar | yes | 07:32 |
| murlidhar | of ubuntu | 07:33 |
| evo | nope | 07:33 |
| evo | just cli | 07:33 |
| evo | well, ill burn another. any small apps to burn iso's? | 07:33 |
| evo | im on xp btw | 07:33 |
| murlidhar | evo: starburn is the best option in xp | 07:33 |
| gravitica | newuser, is the wireless network already set up and named, encrypted, etc.? | 07:34 |
| evo | k. i used iso-burner. going to delete that... | 07:34 |
| tovella | evo: i have a 52x cd-burner, but i can't get good burns of ubuntu at anything more than 18x speed. | 07:34 |
| evo | ok. i bumped mine back to 32 the last time. ill set at 18 and use starburner | 07:34 |
| Ziroday | Hi, how do I get xscreensaver to just display images from a file? | 07:35 |
| murlidhar | evo: also after burning load it in xp and what is inside. most probably u will get wubi installer which is pretty easy | 07:35 |
| evo | will do | 07:35 |
| evo | hmm. is this a trial | 07:36 |
| HappyHater | Ziroday, use the Pictures folder option | 07:36 |
| evo | starburn? | 07:36 |

| Hovefirse | Hiya folks. I'm upgrading from g to h, and ran into the following snag. I got the messages "Setting up locales (2.7.9-4); Installing new version...iso-639.def; Generating locales; en-AU.utf-8", and then the installation hung. It's been stuck for about 30 minutes, and I'm getting worried... What can/should I do in this situation? | 07:36 |
| murlidhar | evo: no | 07:36 |
| murlidhar | evo: before burning it u can load the iso too from starburn | 07:37 |
| evo | holy crap you guys have some bots in here. lol | 07:37 |
| Ziroday | HappyHater: dont see it, note that I am using xscreensaver not gnome-screensaver | 07:37 |
| evo | it wants me to restart but im going to have to pass | 07:37 |
| murlidhar | evo: if it is about bras then just change ur user mode to +E | 07:38 |
| murlidhar | evo: k | 07:38 |
| === marco is now known as ThinkLINUX | ||
| HappyHater | Ziroday, my bad... should read more carefully | 07:38 |
| Ziroday | HappyHater: no worries | 07:39 |
| tovella | evo: you might even consider a slower speed than 18x. that works on this really nice plextor i have, but some other burner's i've used would produce a crappy cd at anything above 8x. i had to play around and scrap several blanks to find my "optimum" speed/reliability... | 07:39 |
| evo | ive burned lots of cds in this one at 32 with no problems | 07:39 |
| evo | but ill try just in case | 07:39 |
| evo | btw, how do you set mode? im not that versed in irc | 07:40 |
| murlidhar | evo: type /quoto mode evo +E | 07:40 |
| Hovefirse | ...and to make it shorter...what should one do if an upgrade freezes in the middle? Would it be safe to reboot and restart the process...? | 07:40 |

| murlidhar | evo: it is always better to burn distro disk at 4x if possible | 07:45 |
| HymnToLife | te: you want libncurses5-dev, for compilaion that is | 07:45 |
| evo | you guys have more patience than me. :p | 07:45 |

| evo | another cd rom | 07:46 |
| evo | burner | 07:46 |
| murlidhar | u mean starburn is a shareware | 07:46 |
| murlidhar | afaik it is a freeware for now | 07:46 |
| HymnToLife | Junkee: then add the infomation ;) Debconf does create so minimalist xorg config files it's a wonder they sometimes work | 07:47 |
| tovella | murlidhar: i think he means the hardware device. | 07:47 |

| DP | I am using the livecd | 08:33 |
| bazhang | mapreduce, md5 the iso, burn at low speed then do disk integrity check; you may also wish to try alternate cd | 08:33 |

| meganwoulffe | true. | 08:34 |

| bazhang | mapreduce, the live cd has one as well; you would be wise to use it | 08:35 |
| tovella | dp, ahh, that's why. the drivers are restricted, and nvidia won't allow them to be included with any GNU/Linux projects. you'll have to install the drivers via the internet, before you can get the higher resolutions for that card. blame nvidia. | 08:35 |
| mapreduce | bazhang: I'm running from the live cd right now - where in there can I find that? | 08:35 |
| bazhang | at any rate lets take the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:35 |
| ra21vi | anyone enlighten me | 08:36 |
| mapreduce | I used brasero to burn the iso, on another (working) Ubuntu install. | 08:36 |
| DP | hum... so just download the driver from nvidia.com and install? | 08:36 |
| tovella | DP: actually, you'll have to install linux onto your hard drive, first. if you download and install the drivers while running from the live-cd, you'll have to re-boot before the changes will take effect. | 08:37 |
| tovella | DP: you don't have to download them from nvidia. | 08:37 |
| DP | eh.. I don't want to install linux on my computer. | 08:38 |
| tovella | DP: ubuntu makes it really easy to download the "restricted" drivers from ubuntu's online repository, but you'll have to install ubuntu to a hard drive first because of the need to reboot, after installing this particular video driver. | 08:39 |
| DP | uhm.. so where do I get the drivers from if it's not from nvidia... | 08:39 |
| abien | using a private mirror i am recently getting "Hash Sum mismatch" on my clients when using apt-get update. I have confirmed the mirror is in sync with upstream so im out of ideas. Anyone ? :x | 08:39 |

| bazhang | DP, whatever you install will disappear when you end the livecd session | 08:40 |
| DP | that's fine | 08:41 |

| DP | all I want is a higher resolution than 800x600... | 08:42 |
| bazhang | DP, read that link. | 08:43 |
| DP | isn't 1024x768 a standard vesa mode!? | 08:43 |
| bazhang | DP, the livecd is for a tour; this is a support channel for installations | 08:43 |
| tovella | DP: if you install the drivers, the change won't take effect until after a re-boot (causing your driver installation to be lost) ...unless you install ubuntu on a hard drive. | 08:44 |
| bazhang | DP, might as well install to usb persistent and boot from that | 08:44 |

| ParkerW | legend2440: how do I install that tar.gz thingy? | 08:46 |
| tovella | DP: like i said... it's really the fault of nvidia. for some other graphics adaptors, you can install the drivers, restart the session (without a reboot), and get the results you're looking for... not with nvidia, though. | 08:46 |
| punkrockguy318 | What does the UpdateGP() function even do? | 08:46 |

| chuy_max | can I shutdown my PC from console without root permission?, I could add shutdown to sudoers, but there must be another way, I mean, GNOME shuts down the PC without entering a root password | 08:47 |
| floreal | why does not shutdown work properly on login screen? | 08:48 |
| Bert_2 | DP: no we can't, it's restricted and we first of all can't get permission to install the drivers by default from nvidia | 08:48 |
| legend2440 | ParkerW: in terminal sudo apt-get install libnotify-bin | 08:48 |

| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: your wireless in not detected at all, only your ethernet, Ubuntu cant do anything about it, until it can see it. | 09:37 |
| ubottu | _rubystallion: 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 | 09:37 |

| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: lol oh no, yes they do refurbish them | 09:40 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: there might be a slight chance of this | 09:40 |
| lokuaz | ok | 09:41 |
| pundo | raymie: perhaps resetting panel to defaults will help gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel | 09:41 |
| gaten | how can you start up/move an application to another desktop via the command line in gnome? | 09:41 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: get into your CMOS/BIOS settings and see that it is enabled, only thing i can think of other than hardware failure | 09:41 |
| pundo | raymie: then pkill gnome-panel | 09:41 |
| lokuaz | thx | 09:41 |
| lokuaz | if not | 09:41 |
| lokuaz | i will ope it i dont care | 09:41 |
| lokuaz | its a 300 computer | 09:41 |
| lokuaz | lol | 09:41 |
| FloodBot1 | lokuaz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:41 |
| raymie | pundo ok..i'll try now | 09:41 |
| cbau_ | 09:41 | |
| lokuaz | brb | 09:42 |
| tauren | i just installed 8.0.4 on a newly built system. The mobo has an eth port, but ifconfig only shows lo, no eth0. The eth port on mobo has the LED lit and my switch shows that port active as well. Why would the OS not see the port? | 09:42 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: ok | 09:42 |
| lokuaz | thx dozed | 09:42 |
| lokuaz | brb | 09:42 |
| raymie | pundo : what is the code again | 09:42 |
| pundo | raymie: gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel | 09:43 |
| gaten | tauren: does ifconfig -a show anything? | 09:43 |
| pundo | raymie: then pkill gnome-panel | 09:43 |
| tovella | tauren: there are a few possibilities.... | 09:43 |
| tauren | gaten: no. just lo again | 09:43 |
| gaten | that is odd. what kind of mobo? | 09:43 |
| tauren | i looked for anything related to eth in the BIOS, but nothing. | 09:44 |
| tauren | cheapo ECS | 09:44 |
| tovella | tauren: the BIOS was my first guess. | 09:44 |
| === tomph_ is now known as tomph | ||
| tauren | hmm.. so maybe the port is bad on the mobo? | 09:44 |
| tovella | tauren: which network device comes on that motherboard? | 09:45 |
| tauren | tovella: what do you mean? it has a 10/100 lan port. | 09:45 |
| tovella | tauren: which ECS motherboard is it? | 09:46 |
| proteusguy | Is there a good KDE file manager that anyone can recommend to replace this abomination called dolphin?? </flame> | 09:46 |

| raymie | pundo: still not working | 09:46 |
| [z]LinuX | anyone here using freeNX server? | 09:47 |
| pundo | raymie: just to check. you've restarted X right? ctrl-alt-backspace? | 09:47 |
| raymie | pundo:yup | 09:47 |
| tovella | tauren: yeah, that setup with the VIA chipset should definitely work. | 09:47 |
| tauren | hmm... | 09:47 |
| raymie | pundo: but i type the code on alt+ctrl+f3 terminal | 09:48 |
| Arodon | I'm experimenting with dualhead on my Intel i915 card (Hardy). It's working great except that every time I launch a GUI program, the VGA output flashes black for a second. Does anybody have information on this issue? | 09:48 |
| pundo | raymie: the only other thing I could suggest then is to search the hidden directories for your session files and rename or delete them then relog | 09:48 |
| pundo | raymie: other than that I'm stymied | 09:48 |
| reza_ | hi | 09:48 |
| tovella | tauren: wait, i found something. | 09:48 |
| pufi | hi! anyone playing L2? i need some help to start it... | 09:48 |
| tauren | tovella: cool... i'm googling too... | 09:49 |
| raymie | pundo: i think its the session file? where is it in ubuntu? | 09:49 |
| pundo | raymie: .gconf .gnome .gnome2 | 09:49 |
| tovella | Re: VIA VT6103L LAN Mobo:ECS P4M800PRO-M (v2.0) | 09:49 |
| tovella | with my pc chips motherboard i had to replace eth0 with eth1 in /etc/network/interfaces to get my lan working properly. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5221980 | 09:49 |
| tauren | my /etc/network/interfaces doesn't even mention ethX | 09:50 |
| tauren | just lo | 09:50 |
| tauren | auto lo | 09:50 |
| tauren | iface lo inet loopback | 09:50 |
| raymie | pundo: i did rm -rf .gnome2 .gconfd and everything on /home , still not working | 09:50 |
| IceRaven | Hi, I am trying to remove pulseaudio form hardy... does anyone have any links to guides on how to remove it. I have been through the perfect pulseaudio setup and various other articles so I don't believe pulseaudio can be saved on my system. | 09:50 |
| pundo | raymie: you'd have to reboot or restart x to check | 09:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | tovella: in terminal this will show all aliases of adapters > ifconfig -a (things like eth0/eth1/wlan0/etc) | 09:51 |
| tovella | DozedOnLinux: not my words... i was sending a quote. | 09:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | ok | 09:52 |
| raymie | pundo: did that alrewady last night... found some tutorial on web, thsts why i try to gethelp here | 09:52 |
| pundo | raymie: I dunno then raymie :( | 09:52 |
| raymie | pundo: thanks pundo for helping | 09:52 |
| hyprv | is there an application for ubuntu that is like parallels for OSX ? | 09:53 |
| hyprv | so i can run winXP | 09:53 |
| raymie | anybody know to to reset gnome session? | 09:53 |
| pundo | raymie: sorry I couldn't be of any help | 09:53 |
| hyprv | dual boot isn't working out | 09:53 |
| tovella | tauren: it's likely that network-manager is controlling your ethernet device. do what DozedOnLinux said. ... ifconfig.... | 09:53 |
| raymie | pundo: its okay, may be someone know how | 09:53 |
| tauren | tovella, DozedOnLinux: when I do ifconfig -a, only the lo inteface is listed. | 09:54 |
| zvacet | hyprv : you can try virtual box or vmware server but how dual boot doesn´t work | 09:54 |
| raymie | anybody know to to reset gnome session,please? | 09:54 |
| [z]LinuX | can someone help me how to install freenx for hardy? | 09:55 |
| tauren | i think i need to try to update the bios. that url you sent tovella has a reference to a new bios providing network on/off configuration. | 09:55 |
| hyprv | my computer is kind of fucked up and for some reason is not making it through the install.. it fails at strange times | 09:55 |
| hyprv | i think is a hardware problem | 09:55 |
| hyprv | except linux runs good | 09:55 |
| FloodBot1 | hyprv: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:55 |
| hyprv | so it's very weird | 09:55 |
| ikonia | hyprv: I need you to please self moderate your language | 09:55 |
| hyprv | oi | 09:55 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: if your card isnt listed in (sudo lshw -C network) it is not detected, you can also try in terminal > sudo lspci | 09:56 |
| hyprv | sorry dad | 09:56 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: you can hunt through to see if anything even resembles a network card | 09:56 |
| ikonia | hyprv: it's a family based channel, so keep it clean and polite please. | 09:56 |
| rsc___ | hey guys. I currently have (on one HD) XP and Ubuntu. I'd like to install Vista -- are there any implications to this? will my ubuntu partition be safe? | 09:56 |
| tovella | tauren: now i'm seeing lots of sites that say that particular VIA chipset has been a pain for many linux users. | 09:56 |
| hyprv | heh anything you say | 09:56 |
| ikonia | rsc___: main issue is grub will be overwritten as a boot loader and need putting back on | 09:56 |
| raymie | anybody know to to reset gnome session, or any sites please? | 09:57 |
| ikonia | hyprv: thanks, appriciated | 09:57 |
| hyprv | sure it is.. | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | yo all | 09:57 |
| rsc___ | ikonia: then I just use my ubuntu cd right? | 09:57 |
| ikonia | rsc___: yup, thats an easy way of putting it back | 09:57 |
| ActionParsnip | raymie: do you mean, gnome settings etc? | 09:57 |
| ikonia | !grub > rsc___ | 09:57 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: ok, i'm checking through the output of those commands now. | 09:57 |
| ikonia | rsc___: check out ubottu's pm also for more info | 09:57 |
| raymie | actionparship: yes | 09:57 |
| Kartagis | how do I change the default font? | 09:58 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: nothing in sudo lspci | 09:58 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: ok let me know what you find | 09:58 |
| pufi | anyone playing L2? | 09:58 |
| ubottu | rsc___, please see my private message | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | raymie: http://linuxfud.wordpress.com/2007/02/14/how-to-reset-ubuntugnome-settings-to-defaults-without-re-installing/ | 09:58 |
| rsc___ | alright. | 09:58 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: let me see if i can find something else for you to try, the options are winding down though | 09:58 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: how do I use the other command? It shows output, but all on one line, and then when done the new command prompt replaces the same line. | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | raymie: dont rm them though, just use mv to rename' | 09:58 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: give me min | 09:58 |
| kernel_ghost | anybody know what the debian-tor user is??? | 09:58 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: ok, thanks. | 09:59 |
| raymie | ActionParsnip: I did followed them last night, already did rm | 09:59 |
| ActionParsnip | tauren: you dont have to sudo lspci, users can lspci | 09:59 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: this one ? > sudo lshw -C network | 09:59 |
| mr_daniel | I installed gnochm, but then removed again because it had some bugs | 09:59 |
| tauren | tovella: that's not good to hear... Well, I do have an extra pci network card if i can't get it working.. | 09:59 |
| IceRaven | Hi, I am trying to remove pulseaudio from hardy... does anyone have any links to guides on how to remove it. I have been through the perfect pulseaudio setup and various other articles so I don't believe pulseaudio can be saved on my system. | 09:59 |
| mr_daniel | I removed it with a 'apt-get autoremove gnochm' to also remove packages which are not needed anymore | 09:59 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: yes, that one. | 09:59 |
| mr_daniel | here is the list of removed packages from the /var/log/apt/term.log http://rafb.net/p/Mmsg8093.html | 10:00 |
| mr_daniel | now my ubuntu is not able to detect my graphics-card, wireless, etc. | 10:00 |
| raymie | hmm.. maybe i have to reinstall gnome? | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | raymie: id get into the habit of renaming instead of rm so you can roll back | 10:00 |
| mr_daniel | does apt-get removed some important packages? | 10:00 |
| ikonia | mr_daniel: apt-get removes / installs what you tell it to | 10:00 |
| D47 | hello room | 10:00 |
| ActionParsnip | hi D47 | 10:00 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: you'll get more info in #debian on that | 10:00 |
| mr_daniel | yea, and I told apt-get to autoremove | 10:00 |
| ikonia | mr_daniel: that will only remove uneeded packages | 10:01 |
| D47 | i'm a x-linux user :( | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | mr_daniel: that mean itll remove orphaned librarys too | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | D47: how do you mean? | 10:01 |
| ikonia | ActionParsnip: ex | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | oic | 10:01 |
| D47 | since a game i use to play stoped working on wine, i went back to windows | 10:01 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: you can look through this to see there was ever reference to wlan0/ath0/wifi0 (maybe it was installed at some point)>cat /etc/modprobe.d/aliases | 10:02 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: example > alias wlan0 rt61pci | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | D47: ive no need for it due to my minute system usage | 10:02 |
| olgem | What information is there regarding fitting Ubuntu onto the 4G eee? Can I put / on the 4G internal flash, and just use the SD slot for /home? I'm not aware how much space the default install takes up | 10:02 |
| D47 | what? | 10:02 |
| IceRaven | D47:What game? | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | D47: i dont use my pcs much | 10:03 |
| intreq | hi guys, doing good? | 10:03 |
| D47 | conquer | 10:03 |
| olgem | D47, C&C? What one? | 10:03 |
| D47 | Conquer Online 2.0 | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | olgem: im sure there arte walkthroughs on how to move /home to another partition etc | 10:03 |
| D47 | to move /home, u just need to update ur fstab | 10:03 |
| D47 | to its new location | 10:04 |
| ubun2Junky | wondering how ubuntu server compares to Win2K3 as a domain controller, just wondering if anyone has had any experience in this? | 10:04 |
| olgem | ActionParsnip, I don't need help doing so, I was just wondering how large a default ubuntu install is, and if I would need to move /usr to the SD card or anything to squeeze it in | 10:04 |
| ikonia | ubun2Junky: depends what domain functionality you want | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | ubun2Junky: depends on your needs | 10:04 |
| D47 | a really custyomized install should only take up 800mb | 10:04 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: a grep of /etc/modprobe.d/alias has no "wlan", "eth", or "wifi" in it. | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | olgem: its a few gig, id check eeeXubuntu, it does a lot for the eee pc | 10:04 |
| aurax | excuse me, i have a linux problem, can you have a look at: http://pastebin.com/f1497699a | 10:05 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: any log of last lease used (really running out of suggestions)? > cat /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.leases (or) cat /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.wlan0.leases (may be different on your machine) | 10:05 |
| D47 | that also using fluxbox as the gui | 10:05 |
| ikonia | D47: the size depends on what you want, a customised install could take up 2Gig | 10:05 |
| D47 | :) | 10:05 |
| ubun2Junky | ikonia: file sharing, printer and being able to configure users like you do in active directory would be nice | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | D47: i use fluxbox, its the nuts :D | 10:05 |
| D47 | this is true | 10:05 |
| D47 | that and conky roxs! | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | ubun2Junky: yeah it'll do it well, check samba | 10:05 |
| ikonia | ubun2Junky: it will be exactly the same in that respect as long as you don't want active directory intergration, you just want ldap/domain services | 10:05 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: dhclient.leases is empty | 10:05 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: i am lost for suggestions other than if under warranty to bring back to where you bought it. it sounds like a hardware issue | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | D47: not bothered for conky really, i just want my DE to do the job, none of this compiz garbage for me | 10:06 |
| iopk | I'd like to replace "search" by "replace" in all files in one dir + it's subdirs. I know how to do it with perl for one dir ("perl -pi -w -e 's/search/replace/g;' *.php") or with sed for 1 file ("sed 's/search/replace/g' ./test.txt > ./test2.txt"), even with sed for all files, but then I have to write it to a new file each time (otherwise the files become empty). What is the correct solution? | 10:06 |
| wols_ | ikonia: please don't push people running ubuntu to debian. we natives don't appreciate it :) | 10:06 |
| IceRaven | Is pulseaudio used by kubuntu? | 10:06 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: ok, thanks for helping troubleshoot. that is actually what i was thinking too. | 10:06 |
| ikonia | wols_: huh ? which one ? | 10:06 |
| HappyHater | compiz garbage? | 10:06 |
| olgem | ActionParsnip, I could, but I'd rather just run straight ubuntu, and GNOME. It runs well from what I hear, just space can be a problem. Also, there are going to be some improvements merged to the next ubuntu release from various sources that will make running it on the Eee much nicer, possibly making those eee specific distribution spings obsolete | 10:06 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: what Distro of linux ? > lsb_release -a | 10:06 |
| wols_ | 11:01 < ikonia> kernel_ghost: you'll get more info in #debian on that | 10:06 |
| D47 | yea, im lost too | 10:06 |
| lokuaz | thx a lot dozed... you rule dude.. it was the bios.. lan was disabled.. wtf.. how in the world that happen.. | 10:06 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: I will try to update the BIOS and see if there is a network option though. | 10:06 |
| ikonia | wols_: he was asking about the debian tor package, was that not what he wanted ? | 10:06 |
| ubun2Junky | can ubuntu server control the domain client settings like AD then? | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | olgem: what it does is Ubuntu, you just get a lighter DE which suits the EEE better | 10:07 |
| D47 | samba is very good at that | 10:07 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux: 8.04 | 10:07 |
| ikonia | ubun2Junky: certain ones work the same as a "policy" | 10:07 |
| Sevensins | Hello, I have trouble getting the Soundcard to work on my system. I own an EMU0404 PCI and the kernel I m running can be read in the pastebin. I think if ound a bug but i dont know who to ask to fix this Look in Pastebins: http://pastebin.ca/1091865 http://pastebin.ca/1091869 for more details | 10:07 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: ok come back if you need more assistance with Ubuntu, there are lots of users that may be able to help you | 10:07 |
| ubun2Junky | ikonia: and this is done with Samba? | 10:07 |
| wols_ | #debian supports debian only. no derivatives, no matter where they get the packages. and #debian cerrainly doesn't in any way endorse mixed packages. whoever mixes them from distro is on his own. there be dragons | 10:07 |
| D47 | be righ tback | 10:07 |
| tauren | DozedOnLinux, tovella: thank you both for your assistance. | 10:07 |
| ikonia | ubun2Junky: samba+ldap | 10:07 |
| [z]LinuX | anyone here tried using freenx on hardy? | 10:07 |
| lokuaz | im not the kind of guy that come here to ask for help for anything, i like to research and learn.. but this time i had not idea at all.. | 10:07 |
| tovella | tauren: no problem. | 10:08 |
| ikonia | wols_: agree %100 - I was under the impression he was using debian and wanted info on the debian tor package | 10:08 |
| ubun2Junky | ikonia: sweet... I'll go do some reading then... thx for pointing me in the right direction! | 10:08 |
| lokuaz | but it was so simple.. now i wonder how is that it was disabled on bios.. | 10:08 |
| ikonia | ubun2Junky: not quite as advanced, but for core functions the same | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Sevensins: http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ubuntu+Audigy2+Value&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a | 10:08 |
| lokuaz | thats weird.. anyway.. thanks a lot dozed | 10:08 |
| wols_ | ok. misunderstanding then. why people come here about debian questions I never understand :) | 10:08 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: was it disabled ? | 10:08 |
| lokuaz | yeah lan was disabled lol | 10:08 |
| ikonia | wols_: neither do I, hence why I thought I'd pushed him to the right place | 10:08 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: the system may have been reset | 10:08 |
| D47 | back | 10:09 |
| lokuaz | how that happen? no idea at all | 10:09 |
| D47 | is short hand allowed here? | 10:09 |
| lokuaz | hmmm thats weird | 10:09 |
| lokuaz | maybe | 10:09 |
| kernel_ghost | its an ubuntu question, because I am running ubuntu right? | 10:09 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: hey we all done it | 10:09 |
| seekingtruth | hello sinners :) | 10:09 |
| Kartagis | where is the control panel? I can't find it | 10:09 |
| lokuaz | yeah | 10:09 |
| pufi | anyone playing Lineage2? | 10:09 |
| seekingtruth | Kartagis: lol | 10:09 |
| kernel_ghost | i was asking what the user debian-tor is, its been sudoing to root in my auth log | 10:09 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: your running ubuntu, but your asking about a debian package. The debian guys can tell you about the physical package | 10:09 |
| Sevensins | ActionParsnip: i know that its working under feisty cos it used to... now i run hardy it wont work again | 10:09 |
| D47 | sweet | 10:09 |
| seekingtruth | pufi: whATS Lineage2? | 10:09 |
| lokuaz | i didnt get it... and the solution was so simple.. thanks to think simple | 10:09 |
| D47 | i hate spelling out everything | 10:09 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: well they said they cannot.... | 10:09 |
| lokuaz | i would never guess | 10:09 |
| pufi | a game :) | 10:09 |
| seekingtruth | pufi: free? | 10:09 |
| pufi | lineage2.com | 10:09 |
| pufi | no | 10:10 |
| joakim-lappy | lokuaz, hate to say i told you so ;) | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Sevensins: then redo whatever you did and it'll go | 10:10 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: that is why i didnt want you to make changes till you were sure of the issue, otherwise you would have to do it all over | 10:10 |
| seekingtruth | then forget it lol | 10:10 |
| D47 | lineageII | 10:10 |
| seekingtruth | pufi: :) | 10:10 |
| pufi | i play on a rogue free server, but oficial is not free | 10:10 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: are you running "tor" ? | 10:10 |
| lokuaz | cause i have xubuntu on my macbook as well.. and its the same wifi card as the asus eeepc | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | Sevensins: http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=731290 | 10:10 |
| Kartagis | seekingtruth: ? | 10:10 |
| lokuaz | and it was working with the same exact configuration | 10:10 |
| D47 | what broke conquer online was the new login screen, its flash | 10:10 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: and they both perform well with Ubuntu ? | 10:10 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: not intentionally, its a stock install what exactly is tor | 10:10 |
| lokuaz | yeah.. actually xubuntu.. almost the same.. i just prefer xfce than gnome | 10:11 |
| Sevensins | no i never had an error like PCI IRQ assignment so ppl @ 'alsa told me it must be st flaky in the kernel | 10:11 |
| lokuaz | and mousepad over gedit | 10:11 |
| lokuaz | thats it | 10:11 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: can't be a stock install as tor is not on a stock install | 10:11 |
| seekingtruth | Kartagis: there is no "control panel", thats Windows | 10:11 |
| zvacet | !tor | 10:11 |
| ubottu | TOR is a project aiming to provide anonymous connections via specialized !proxies - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR for information and help - Note that TOR is blocked on most Ubuntu IRC channels, please see !hostmask and !tor-gpg | 10:11 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: well now you can enjoy it on both :) | 10:11 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: please show me "uname -a" | 10:11 |
| lokuaz | yeah | 10:11 |

| Kartagis | seekingtruth: http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r18679095-Changing-the-default-fonts-in-UbuntuFFawn says there is | 10:11 |
| kernel_ghost | hmmm, i dont understand what installed it unless it is a dependancy of something else i have installed | 10:11 |
| lokuaz | actually i have tripleboot on my macbook :).. windows, linux and mac.. the boot gui its cute. lol | 10:11 |
| seekingtruth | Kartagis: in ubuntu? | 10:11 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: please show me the output of uname -a | 10:11 |
| Kartagis | all i want is to change the default font | 10:12 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: macOS is based on FreeBSD | 10:12 |
| kernel_ghost | Linux ubuntu 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 23:41:49 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 10:12 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: i had that at one time, now i have it on its own drive. but i have had up to 4 :P | 10:12 |
| Kartagis | seekingtruth: yes | 10:12 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: one moment | 10:12 |
| seekingtruth | Kartagis: where? prove it :) | 10:12 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: np | 10:12 |
| lokuaz | i have 3 OS on my macbook.. 100gb for linux. 100gb for leopard and 50 for windows crap | 10:12 |
| lokuaz | seekingtruth actually macOS its unix | 10:12 |
| lokuaz | macOS its cool. but the HW its overpriced | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | mac hardware is too pricey | 10:13 |
| lokuaz | yes | 10:13 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: yeah originally, you are right | 10:13 |
| D47 | agreed | 10:13 |
| Kartagis | anyhow, how do I change the default font? | 10:13 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: but isnt macOS based on freebsd? | 10:13 |
| HappyHater | Kartagis, system > prefs > appearance > fonts | 10:13 |
| Sevensins | thee funny thing is i can change values of the card after boot in mixer on gnome and alsamixer shows the card but i dont hear a sound when its playing altough i see playtime going further and see alll these animations from eq | 10:13 |
| notabene | how do i add shortcut to start menu? i have a shell script which launches application and want to add shortcut to it to the start menu... | 10:13 |
| seekingtruth | Sevensins: you are the 8th sin | 10:13 |
| Sevensins | and i am not so studid that wouldnt have come to the conclusion a value might be set to 0 in mixer | 10:14 |
| zvacet | seekingtruth : on darwin | 10:14 |
| lokuaz | seekingtruth, i didnt know about it.. freebsd its a unix like os just as linux.. macos its actually unix cetified | 10:14 |
| Flannel | guys, take the OSX discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks. | 10:14 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: have you changed anything in your /etc/apt/sources.list? | 10:14 |
| Kartagis | HappyHater: how do I get it to use dejavu fonts? | 10:14 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: the mythbuntu repos. is tor something mythtv uses? | 10:15 |
| seekingtruth | zvacet: darwin? | 10:15 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: no, it's not. | 10:15 |
| lucas2 | hey. I got my wireless card to run using ndiswrapper as /dev/wlan1. ubuntu still also tries to control it trough a native driver as /dev/wlan0. I want that to stop. Does anybody know how I can figure out what dirver is controlling /dev/wlan0, so I can disabe it? | 10:15 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: ok shows u how much I know lol | 10:15 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: i wonder why the hell it is on here | 10:15 |
| kernel_ghost | should be safe to remove then | 10:15 |
| lokuaz | i dont believe in wine or virtual machines.. i had try everything.. even cedega.. i believe in multiple boots.. | 10:15 |
| HappyHater | Kartagis, they aren't listed when you try to change on of the fonts? | 10:15 |

| [z]LinuX | anyone here can help me how to install freenx on hardy? | 10:15 |
| IceRaven | if i needed help removing pulseaudio from ubuntu is there another channel I should ask for help in or just this one? | 10:15 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: if you have the "debian-tor" package on your system it's good to remove it, if it complains it's needed by something at least you'll know what installed it | 10:15 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: true that | 10:16 |
| kernel_ghost | thanks | 10:16 |
| Kartagis | HappyHater: all i see is font names | 10:16 |
| === ubuntu_ is now known as linux1 | ||
| HappyHater | Kartagis, click on one | 10:16 |
| lokuaz | seekingthetruth.. lol its just basic things.. i dont not that much earthier, just learning new stuff | 10:16 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: well it didnt say anything needed it or would be removed as a result | 10:17 |
| Kartagis | HappyHater: how do i know if my system uses dejavu fonts? | 10:17 |
| themill | ikonia: isn't he asking about the debian-tor user not a debian-tor package? | 10:17 |
| ikonia | themill: we cracked that a while ago thanks | 10:17 |
| Sevensins | can someone read the output i genrated and tell me how it can be fixed ...the last thing i wanna do is roll back to feisty | 10:17 |
| HappyHater | click the button for the font you want to change, application font for instance, when the 'pick a font' gui opens, choose whatever font you want | 10:17 |
| Sevensins | not that i dont like it but i wanted hardy badly | 10:17 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: find the common MAC addy and you should be able to figure it out in terminal > sudo lshw -C network and ifconfig -a | 10:17 |
| themill | ikonia: if you think you have, that's nice. "[10:15] <ikonia> kernel_ghost: if you have the "debian-tor" package on your system [...]" | 10:18 |
| ikonia | themill: re-read the question | 10:18 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: IN the words of Einstein, "....Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am righ" | 10:18 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: :) | 10:18 |
| lucas2 | DozedOnLinux: I found the device in lshw. there is no driver= entry in the configuration line however. | 10:18 |
| kernel_ghost | ikonia: i could safely remove the debian-tor user now hey? | 10:19 |
| lokuaz | and the reason that macos its insanely fast.. its cause its programmed for only 1 type of hardware configuration lol.. leopard boots in about 20 seconds, no joke.. but this is the reason | 10:19 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: then check in terminal (to see which is aliased) > cat /etc/modprobe.d/aliases | 10:19 |
| themill | ikonia: have I missed something: 09:58kernel_ghostanybody know what the debian-tor user is??? | 10:19 |
| ikonia | kernel_ghost: sounds good to me | 10:19 |
| lokuaz | lol seekingthetruth, thats true | 10:19 |
| ikonia | themill: you've missed a lot of conversation, the debian-tor user is trying to sudo on his system, he doesn't want tor - so hence "remove the tor" package | 10:19 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: my Vista and ubuntu boot in 20 secs too | 10:19 |
| themill | ikonia: then stop telling him to remove the debian-tor package. | 10:20 |
| themill | (which doesn't exist) | 10:20 |
| ikonia | themill: what ?/?? | 10:20 |
| lokuaz | vista? hard to believe it | 10:20 |
| lokuaz | really | 10:20 |
| D47 | vista dosen't even boot that fast on my system | 10:20 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: yes, but I tweaked it and disabled all communicsation with MS servers and disabled many services that slow boot times | 10:20 |
| lucas2 | DozenOnLinux: not sure what to look for in that file. I don't see anything stand out that looks related to wireless network. | 10:20 |
| ikonia | themill: he's installed "a" tor package he needs to remove that as he doesn't want tor | 10:20 |
| seekingtruth | D47: thats because you dont know how to tweak it | 10:20 |
| ikonia | themill: as he's got external repo's enabled it's quite hard to work out the exact one | 10:21 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: i have seen that issue before somewhere in the forums, i just need to recall where | 10:21 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: maybe search forums | 10:21 |
| D47 | i guess so | 10:21 |
| seekingtruth | D47: I tweaked it and disabled all communicsation with MS servers and disabled many services that slow boot times! vista boots in 20secs for me too, no problem | 10:21 |
| lucas2 | DozenOnLinux: willdo, thanks, | 10:21 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: i will look as well | 10:21 |
| D47 | i would rather remove windows... | 10:22 |
| seekingtruth | D47: most of the time vista boots is due to uneeded services checking this and that! disable them and Vista boots in under 30 secs easy | 10:22 |
| HUNTER_byt1 | I need a command line calculator that supports shifts(<<,>>) and bitwise AND, XOR, OR. Any suggestions? I tried dc and bc but they appear to not support that. | 10:22 |
| lokuaz | well i use sysv-rc-conf to do that.. i gain some seconds... my eeepc is booting in around 40 seconds | 10:22 |
| lokuaz | but i didnt want to disabled some services that i was not sure | 10:22 |
| lokuaz | i was kind of worry lol | 10:22 |
| D47 | i compiled a kernal once that was perfect. | 10:22 |
| seekingtruth | D47: Vista Manager is a good start | 10:22 |
| lokuaz | ahh i want to learn that | 10:22 |
| D47 | system only used 78mb of memory and was set to my hardware only | 10:23 |
| lokuaz | how to compiled the kernel | 10:23 |
| D47 | of course that was at pure idle | 10:23 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: use vista manager for starters | 10:23 |
| Flannel | !offtopic | 10:23 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 10:23 |
| seekingtruth | lokuaz: and use vispa to disable all communication with MS servers | 10:24 |
| D47 | acculy, compiling a kernel on ubuntu is easyer than doing it on fedora or slackware for me | 10:24 |
| seekingtruth | Flannel: sorry | 10:24 |
| olgem | lokuaz, how do you have your eeepc set up, with regards to SD cards and partition layout? | 10:24 |
| D47 | sorry | 10:24 |
| * dextone bbl, send init 6 to my eyes | 10:24 | |
| tovella | Sevensins: what about from the live-cd? does sound work ok then? | 10:24 |
| Sevensins | tovella | 10:26 |
| Sevensins | i never downloaded one so i actually cant tell | 10:26 |
| Mushrooms | Hi everyone, I have run into some problems with mapping a remote drive. Can anyone please lend me their expertise? | 10:26 |
| Sevensins | i always take the alternate so i cant really tell | 10:26 |
| lokuaz | i dont have a sd card.. but i want to buy one and install another distro there. the set up was easy.. i didnt use swap at all. instead i create a swap file.. and i get my swappines to level 100.. cause the limited ammount of ram as you know | 10:26 |
| tovella | Sevensins: i would test using a live-cd. | 10:27 |
| Sevensins | but i gues even that wont work because my emu card needs the firmware from medibuntu repo to work right | 10:27 |
| olgem | lokuaz, Don't you think any kind of swap will wear down the internal flash? A stick of 1GB ram is about 20 USD online. | 10:27 |
| tovella | Sevensins: ahh, i see. | 10:27 |

| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: thats 3 links if its hard to see | 10:28 |
| Sevensins | now the next thing you come round to telll me is that its got st to do with the firmwareloaders from the medibuntu repo right? | 10:28 |
| === [ID]-2392 is now known as georgezl | ||
| lokuaz | yeah i know. actually i doubt you need a swap at all never try it | 10:29 |
| Sevensins | now beacause as a check says its 0.16 and with this i had it running fine on feisty | 10:29 |
| elmargol | you need swap for suspend | 10:29 |
| lucas2 | DozenOnLinux: thanks, reading. | 10:30 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: that is just to give you an idea, please dont take that as a fix. you need to know what card is what first | 10:31 |
| lokuaz | thats true margol.. but i only have 4gb on my eeepc :) i prefer to not use suspend | 10:31 |
| lokuaz | until now i had not detect any problem not using it | 10:31 |
| === dextone is now known as De[X]tone | ||
| lucas2 | DozenOnLinux: no worries, any leads are welcome. | 10:32 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: tell me when you are done reviewing and maybe i can help you out from there, if not, someone else in here prob can | 10:33 |
| lokuaz | olgem do you want to buy the eeepc? | 10:34 |
| lucas2 | DozedOnLinux: it looks like the ubuntu wireless guide had the missing link. it mentinos a few drivers to blacklist. on a first inspection that seemed to have worked. | 10:34 |
| DozedOnLinux | oy yes | 10:34 |
| lokuaz | its like a pocket pc.. im very glad with my purchase | 10:34 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: in terminal > cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 10:34 |
| olgem | lokuaz, I'm considering it, and it looks(due to other superior subnotebooks in the same price range) that it might go down in price. a 299$ laptop is a steal. | 10:34 |
| lucas2 | DozedOnLinux: I added 4 drivers to that file just a minute ago. | 10:35 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: funny you say that, that was my next comment lol | 10:35 |
| lucas2 | seemed to have done the trick. | 10:35 |
| DozedOnLinux | lokuaz: wonderful | 10:35 |
| olgem | lokuaz, if you don't have an SD card, and you are using ubuntu, what did you do about fitting it into 4gb? | 10:35 |
| DozedOnLinux | lucas2: oops wonderful | 10:35 |
| swilky | hey does any one know how to make pptpd use ubuntu user accounts insted of using the /etc/ppp/pptpdsecret file | 10:36 |

| bschussek | I got the remote mounting of the /home directories to work, but I need to share the user passwords and IDs as well and don't know how to do this | 10:37 |
| olgem | lokuaz, sounds good, how much ram is it taking up right about now? How much space on your 4G flash? | 10:37 |

| swilky | bsch | 10:38 |
| lokuaz | 3gb | 10:38 |
| rocko | how do i share files between ubuntu computers ? | 10:38 |
| olgem | lokuaz, very nice, thanks. | 10:38 |
| lokuaz | i use the eeepc just for basic stuff. browsing.. etc | 10:39 |
| Flannel | !nfs | rocko | 10:39 |
| swilky | rocko: why not move the file into the apache directory | 10:39 |
| lokuaz | for the resolution just use.. displayconfig-gtk and select the 800x480 | 10:39 |
| swilky | then wget fromthe other pc? | 10:39 |
| olgem | lokuaz, if you take a look at eeeuser.com you might find that you can push it to play some relatively modern 3d shooters. | 10:40 |
| ubottu | rocko: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 10:40 |
| lokuaz | 640x480 also works good | 10:40 |

| olgem | lokuaz, very cool. | 10:41 |
| lokuaz | i just suck.. with mouse and keyboard.. im 10 times better with ps controls | 10:42 |
| lokuaz | but its just me. some people prefer mouse and keyboard.. i have issues with mouse and keyboard gaming. i dont know why | 10:42 |
| lokuaz | lol | 10:42 |
| olgem | lokuaz, heh yeah. I find that I already have a computer, and there are many free games out there, so I don't tend to bother with a dedicated gaming machine. | 10:43 |
| olgem | Anyway, this if off-topic | 10:43 |

| adac | rick-u64: U know I ported a ubuntu installation from one pc to another...Can i just install the Ati proprietary drivers and then It works? | 10:56 |
| DozedOnLinux | tauren: ok | 10:56 |
| moDumass | TerrorBite the instructions say to cd to the dir | 10:56 |
| rick-u64 | adac: only if its the same card | 10:56 |
| adac | rick-u64: Same Card on both pc you mean? | 10:57 |
| rick-u64 | yeah | 10:57 |
| TerrorBite | moDumass, yes, that means you need to type "cd path/to/directory" replacing path/to/directory with the path to the folder you want | 10:57 |
| moDumass | TerrorBite then ./configure and then make and then make install , but when i do it says no make file found | 10:57 |
| Starnestommy | moDumass: check the output of ./configure | 10:57 |
| TerrorBite | moDumass, did the ./configure part work? | 10:57 |
| moDumass | Terrorbile, yeh the ./configure part wors | 10:58 |
| moDumass | works | 10:58 |
| TerrorBite | moDumass, then the make part ought to work as well | 10:58 |
| TerrorBite | type this: ls Makefile | 10:58 |
| TerrorBite | and see if it says "File not found" | 10:58 |
| mlevitt | Hi. Can someone answer a basic question from a fedora switcher? :) | 10:58 |
| adac | rick-u64: No that isn't the case unfortunately | 10:59 |
| moDumass | TerrorBite http://pastebin.com/m14845145 this is whats happenin | 10:59 |
| moDumass | thanks for the help btw | 10:59 |
| adac | rick-u64: So I probably need to modify xorg.conf too? | 10:59 |
| rick-u64 | adac: ah well if you know its an ATI card in the new box then you can try installing the ati drivers; but I'd recommend you first find out what card it is. | 10:59 |
| naxxtor | hm, got a problem with the sound card on my X31, http://pastebin.com/d26945163 there's all the relevant information - it's not being picked up by asound but the modules appear to have loaded | 11:00 |
| adac | rick-u64: Ok I just try it out...may it works | 11:00 |
| wols_ | adac: lspci | 11:00 |
| wols_ | adac: don't | 11:00 |
| rick-u64 | I have only nvidia cards in my boxen, so I'm not sure how well ATI will handle it | 11:00 |
| TerrorBite | moDumass, if you'd read the output of ./configure you'd see it complaining | 11:00 |
| TerrorBite | It wants you to install a couple of things first | 11:00 |
| adac | rick-u64, wols_: Well I can uninstall the ati drivers later if it don't works | 11:01 |
| moDumass | TerrorBite, im on it, sorry dont really know enough yet | 11:01 |
| TerrorBite | moDumass, I suggest trying: sudo apt-get install libxtst-dev | 11:01 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: Envy covers both ATI/nVidia | 11:01 |
| TerrorBite | then rerun ./configure | 11:01 |
| moDumass | but im guessing all the checks with no, are the ones i want | 11:01 |
| rick-u64 | DozedOnLinux: oops I completely forgot about Envy | 11:01 |
| rick-u64 | adac: yeah try Envy | 11:02 |
| TerrorBite | moDumass, everything there was fine until line 53: "Can not link with Xtst /usr/lib/libXtst.so library!" | 11:02 |
| moDumass | coolbhavi, thanks | 11:02 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 11:02 |
| TerrorBite | you'll need to install that missing file with the command I just gave you | 11:02 |
| adac | DozedOnLinux, rick-u64: I tried out envy once also on an ati card. It was a disaster ;) but now probably the program is better? | 11:02 |

| rick-u64 | a tip for anyone who may try to add too many fonts....DONT. :P I just brought my killer system to its knees by adding 9000+ fonts to my ~/.fonts folder | 11:12 |

| havocstorm | Hey, have you guys seen the intrepid ibex mockups? | 11:13 |
| lat | I'm needing to use 'su root' for the first time, and I'm being asked for a password. I thought the password was the same as for my account, but obviously not. I don't remember being asked for a root password when installing. Was I asked? or is there a default root password? | 11:13 |
| jsquared | say I've got a bookmark to an FTP or SFTP site in Nautilus. how do I navigate there from the command line? | 11:13 |
| havocstorm | Hey, have you guys seen the intrepid ibex mockups? | 11:13 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: is that because they all load into memory ? | 11:13 |
| havocstorm | http://willwill100.deviantart.com/art/Interpid-Ibex-Mockup-Part-2-93584910 | 11:13 |

| ubottu | malazaka: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 11:15 |
| rick-u64 | DozedOnLinux: yeah apparently they do all load into memory.....so my solution is to only copy over the fonts I need to use to my fonts folder when I need them :D | 11:15 |
| rick-u64 | an extra step, but worth it to not crash the system | 11:15 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: i have seen that in multiple OS's , there may be a way to load them in "sets" or "blocks" i know i have heard of such | 11:16 |
| lat | TerrorBite, bingo. All it takes is knowing what to do. Many thanks! | 11:16 |
| jsquared | how do I navigate to Nautilus-mounted ftp/sftp bookmarks from the command line? | 11:16 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: might be possible to make a script that does just that, but, i cant be sure | 11:16 |
| jsquared | are they mounted in some specific folder? | 11:16 |
| rick-u64 | hehe well I know for a fact that windows can't load 9000+ fonts...the system will never boot :D | 11:16 |
| rick-u64 | I'm not worried about the extra step; as long as I can use my fonts then I'm happy. | 11:17 |
| jsquared | because they don't show up in /mnt or /media any place else that would be obvious to me | 11:17 |
| TerrorBite | lat, you're welcome, by default there is no root password meaning that the root account can't be logged into. However it is possible to set a root password once you have a root shell. | 11:17 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: there has to be a workaround | 11:17 |
| lat | TerrorBite, I see. Very good to know. Thanks again! | 11:18 |
| DozedOnLinux | TerrorBite: there is no match to physical access to a box ;) | 11:18 |
| rick-u64 | O_o wow just found an interesting side-effect in compiz ... scroll wheel on the mouse rotates the desktop cube if you scroll on the desktop...did not know that..just kinda freaked myself out there a sec..heh sorry for being offtopic. | 11:18 |
| HappyHater | rick-u64, you can turn that off | 11:19 |
| TerrorBite | rick-u64, yeah I discovered that one a while ago myself and still do it accidentally | 11:19 |
| DozedOnLinux | rick-u64: its my understanding you can mix and match different effects | 11:19 |

| rick-u64 | yeah I've got a lot of customizations in compiz; I just never realized that you could rotate using the scroll wheel (I use a laptop and just started using a mouse with a scroll wheel in compiz) I always rotate the cube with the keyboard... | 11:20 |

| Mushrooms | sorry this might but an uber stupid question, but, can we install something that's made for fedora core in ubuntu? | 11:22 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: actually yes | 11:23 |
| gublet | well i intend to use this for basic web browsing and solitaire heheh, im very new to ubuntu, just installed it yesterday | 11:23 |
| kernel_ghost | but what is it firstly | 11:23 |
| HappyHater | DozedOnLinux, I'm sure some of it would run fine for you... you don't really need a top of the line system to run CF | 11:23 |
| TerrorBite | ompaul, mode -d? | 11:23 |
| rick-u64 | gublet: you should try a minamalist window manager like fluxbox or openbox | 11:23 |
| ompaul | TerrorBite, see freenode.net ;-) | 11:23 |
| crdlb | Mushrooms: it would be a very bad idea to instal the binary package from fedora, but the software should be possible to install | 11:23 |
| gublet | okay rick thank you | 11:23 |
| rick-u64 | gnome is hefty on such small ram specs | 11:24 |
| Mushrooms | crdlb: so, even though i could install it, it probably won't run, and will quite possibly break the computer? | 11:24 |
| DozedOnLinux | HappyHater: yes maybe. i am not for all that eycandy even if it could, getting old, has its cons, sight gets worse, so i prefer clean/fast | 11:24 |
| HappyHater | heh | 11:24 |
| naxxtor | hey, i'm having some alsa problems with xubuntu, my sound card isn't getting detected, here are some relevant details http://pastebin.com/d26945163 anyone got any ideas? | 11:24 |
| rick-u64 | it _works_ but its very resource intense if there isn't enough ram to load the processes it needs | 11:24 |
| gublet | yeah, ill check out these window managers and see about getting some more ram | 11:25 |
| naxxtor | also, where did alsaconf go? | 11:25 |
| TerrorBite | ompaul, I guess it's similar to unreal's ~r: extended bantype, i.e. +b ~r:New?Now?Know?How | 11:25 |
| DozedOnLinux | HappyHater: actually i do have a monster sitting over there with windows on it, collecting dust. ncie system, but its sitting the bench right now. my coder machine, i will eventually fire it up, for linux programming, but it will have to wait till i learn enough. | 11:25 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: what is it | 11:25 |
| ompaul | TerrorBite, your there already | 11:26 |
| Mushrooms | kernel_ghost: it's a VPN software that i need to use to connect to the university from home | 11:26 |

| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: its for feisty but i am sure it will help | 11:27 |
| znh | lisa_, is possible, but not as usual | 11:28 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: im running Ubuntu as a guest to Vista being the host. So nothing from Windows can "jump over" and infect Ubuntu? | 11:28 |
| lisa_ | znh: possible? has it ever happened? | 11:28 |
| Mushrooms | kernel_ghost: oh cool. Thanks! i'll have a read of this now :) | 11:28 |
| rick-u64 | its not possible | 11:28 |
| rick-u64 | the code cannot execute to do damage | 11:28 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: point is u can compile the client from source package worst case | 11:28 |
| rick-u64 | linux has no "registry" to mess up | 11:28 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: u might even be able to find someone has packaged it | 11:28 |
| znh | rick-u64, of course it can. If the virus has access to the partition carying the linux installation it certainly can do damage | 11:29 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: ok! but if Vista has an active keylogger, will it keylog everything I type into Ubuntu firefox? | 11:29 |
| DozedOnLinux | lisa_ i belive only if you run applications such as Wine, can a windows infect a linux box. i may be wrong, but then i am sure there is a way to do anything given enough efffort | 11:29 |

| lisa_ | DozedOnLinux: ok | 11:29 |
| Ayabara | anyone know of some nice software to create wedding/baptism/birthday invitations? | 11:29 |
| adac | Does someone know a command line script for network connection (wireless and lan)? I found a nice onwe some time ago, but I forgot the name of it :( | 11:29 |
| jsquared | rick-u64: if you run something in an insecure host, everything inside the host is by definition insecure | 11:30 |
| rick-u64 | znh: that would not be a windows virus/trojan then. it would have to be a special crossplatform attack thing..which you just plainly do not see in the mainstream of viruses. | 11:30 |
| DozedOnLinux | adac: just a min, i may have a sample | 11:30 |
| Mushrooms | kernel_ghost: i see, it's just that the university has already set up the parameters for the VPN ready to go, and all that users need to do is to authenticate using username / password. so.... it might be a little bit more complicated | 11:30 |
| znh | rick-u64, the question was if it's possible. It is | 11:30 |
| Eck | Trying to run an IRCd on ubuntu, Although I can connect via local host.. but hm? | 11:30 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: i cant see how it could be much more complicated, what did u get in the package from the university? | 11:30 |
| znh | Eck, which daemon? | 11:30 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: just one rpm?? | 11:30 |
| rick-u64 | wait.. lisa_ are you running ubuntu IN vista? or accessing vista trhough ubuntu? | 11:30 |
| jsquared | rick-u64: trivial example: say you're running an Ubuntu VM in a Vista host. you get a virus on the Vista host that deletes everything in your virtual machines folder. your Ubuntu VM is now destroyed | 11:30 |
| Eck | UnrealIRCd | 11:30 |
| rick-u64 | I might have misread | 11:31 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: im using Virtualbox by Sun. Is there any exploit in vbox that can infect Ubuntu from vista? | 11:31 |
| rick-u64 | ah | 11:31 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: Vista is my host and main OS. im running ubuntu "inside" Vista | 11:31 |
| rick-u64 | can't infect ubuntu. can mess up vista. | 11:31 |
| Mushrooms | kernel_ghost: it's a tar file | 11:31 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: what is in the tar file | 11:31 |
| rick-u64 | can ruin the harddrive; but cannot 'keylog' it unless its keylogging vbox | 11:31 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: so I can use Ubuntu inside Vista safely for netbanking? | 11:31 |
| znh | Eck, good luck :) | 11:31 |
| jsquared | lisa_: define "safely" | 11:31 |
| joaopinto | lisa_, using ubuntu inside vista will not improve your security | 11:32 |
| rick-u64 | lisa_: boot an ubuntu live cd and use that | 11:32 |
| hiptobecubic | has anyone had any luck making ad-hoc networks with ubuntu/xp | 11:32 |

| jsquared | lisa_: your environment is only as secure as what encloses it. if you run Ubuntu in a VM inside Vista, you are not necessarily more secure than if you just ran Vista =/ | 11:32 |
| lisa_ | jsquared: good question. is it as secure as I can get it, uysing ubuntu to do netbanking? Or should I use another OS? | 11:32 |
| hiptobecubic | i'm in vista right now because i can't get ubuntu to connect | 11:32 |

| lisa_ | rick-u64: give reasons for your statement please/ | 11:33 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: so what leads you to believe it is a fedora package then? | 11:33 |
| balle_ | i have a problem with my flash player it appears, it only plays like 5 seconds of a given video and then stops loading any more, does anybody know how to solve this problem? | 11:33 |
| === EcKstasy is now known as EcKsTaTiC | ||
| Mushrooms | kernel_ghost: because the university website calls it "for fedora core" | 11:34 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: reasons please? state why you would not recommend it | 11:34 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: ok, maybe they have only tested building it on fedora | 11:34 |
| rick-u64 | you are using an insecure OS (vista) and vbox IN this insecure OS; meaning that if there is any keylogger on vista, then it _could_ record what vbox is sending to the virtual OS (ubuntu) | 11:34 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: what instructions are u provided with | 11:34 |
| lisa_ | balle_: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 11:34 |
| jsquared | lisa_: then no, it is not secure. because your VM is using your host's network connection, anything that is snooping your host (e.g. a Vista virus) can see exactly what traffic is going to and from your Ubuntu VM | 11:34 |
| Mushrooms | kernel_ghost: if i may send you a pm? | 11:34 |

| lisa_ | rick-u64: lets assume, hypothetically that Vista is clean and has no keylogger. Would you then use it for netbanking? | 11:35 |
| lisa_ | jsquared: and if Vista is clean? what then? | 11:35 |
| rick-u64 | only if you had control over the vista security and had it maxed out. | 11:35 |
| jsquared | lisa_: fallacious. how do you know it's clean? presumably you wouldn't use the VM to begin with if it wasn't | 11:36 |
| kernel_ghost | Mushrooms: yes | 11:36 |
| rick-u64 | such as you knew exactly what traffic was being sent/recvd | 11:36 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: define "maxed out" pls | 11:36 |
| balle_ | i have a problem with my flash player it appears, it only plays like 5 seconds of a given video and then stops loading any more, does anybody know how to solve this problem? | 11:36 |
| rick-u64 | but | 11:36 |
| lisa_ | jsquared: how do you know with 100% certainity that your ubuntu is 100% clean? | 11:36 |
| rick-u64 | netbanking itself is insecure | 11:36 |
| hiptobecubic | lisa_ "uninstalled" | 11:36 |
| jsquared | lisa_: I don't. but I have a higher level of confidence than if I used Vista that it is | 11:36 |
| lisa_ | balle_: use the comman I gave u | 11:36 |
| rick-u64 | because as soon as the signal leaves your system you are open to attack from the outside between your system and the bank. | 11:36 |
| jsquared | lol hiptobecubic | 11:36 |
| lisa_ | jsquared: so you are not certain either then | 11:36 |
| hiptobecubic | :D | 11:37 |
| jsquared | lisa_: no, but I'm *more* certain than if I used Vista | 11:37 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: would u use ubuntu confidently for netbanking? | 11:37 |
| jsquared | lisa_: that is why I don't have any qualms about visiting E*Trade on my Ubuntu box | 11:37 |
| balle_ | lisa_: i have done that and it is already installed and fully updated | 11:37 |
| rick-u64 | I do not do netbanking period. Its too great a risk. | 11:37 |
| lisa_ | balle_: rebooted? | 11:37 |
| znh | lisa_, the reason why Ubuntu is more safe, is because it's not commercial. | 11:37 |

| hiptobecubic | banks do net banking | 11:37 |
| hiptobecubic | with your money | 11:37 |
| rick-u64 | I keep $50 in my account I use online. | 11:37 |
| lisa_ | how can I check for any security breaches that you talk about? | 11:38 |
| rick-u64 | between your system and the bank? you can't. | 11:38 |
| balle_ | lisa_: well i have done that a couple of times (not right now hough) but it is a long time since i installed the flash plugin | 11:38 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: if I installed a fresh Vista and then used Ubuntu as guest using Virtualbox. are you saying that its still too risky? | 11:38 |
| balle_ | lisa_: reboot is the way to go | 11:38 |
| rick-u64 | betwwen your system and your router/modem you need to have a good hardware firewall properly configured and have your network monitored | 11:38 |
| DozedOnLinux | adac: i seem to have misplaced them. i cant seem to find them, that part of my notes needs organization. i will get to them soon | 11:39 |
| rick-u64 | fresh vista is an open door | 11:39 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: how do I close vista then? | 11:39 |

| Galatolo | lisa_ lol | 11:47 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: I have ccleaner already. you recommend avast too? | 11:47 |
| sytheticz | hi | 11:47 |
| rick-u64 | yeah | 11:47 |
| lisa_ | Galatolo: its a start ;) | 11:47 |
| mjg | hey i have a sound questions for anyone knowledgeable or interested..and it goes like this: | 11:47 |
| ng1338 | lisa_ other types work but this is the newest one their is and I'm a newb to linux and I had purchased this one before I swithed. Now I'm in Iraq and can't do much about buying a different one | 11:48 |
| mjg | i recently needed to use USB headphones for my laptop, so i changed all sound configurations to "USB sound device" and it seemed to work fine | 11:48 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: once per week I run eset NOD32 and Kasperky free online scan. Is that just as good? saves me installing avast. I never install new software anywway | 11:48 |
| Galatolo | lisa_ : I can speak English | 11:48 |
| lisa_ | ng1338: what you doing in Iraq? | 11:48 |
| mjg | i now have reverted to the regular input/speakers...but i frequently get 'sound device' busy why i play amarok, then switch to totem, and firefox | 11:48 |
| lisa_ | Galatolo: me too :-) | 11:48 |
| sytheticz | I have been having a problem with my ubuntu, freezing randomly, usually more often when playing games, I ran a RAM test and there were no errors, and it stopped doing it as much when i changed graphics cards, on the forums they reccomended I look in the logs after a crash, so i saved the logs just after a crash, what should I do with them? | 11:48 |
| ActionParsnip | ng1338: http://www.linuxquestions.org/hcl/showproduct.php/product/382 | 11:48 |
| ng1338 | lisa_ I'm with the U.S. Armed Forces | 11:49 |
| mjg | so i'm wondering - what is the default ubuntu sound configuration for 'sound playback' | 11:49 |
| x_hunter | Hello | 11:49 |
| rick-u64 | lisa_: kaspersky is not bad; I like avast more (mainly cause of cosmetic appeal and low system resource usage), but use what you want to. | 11:49 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: sorry offtopic, but what Vista firewall would you recommend? | 11:49 |
| mjg | oss / also / or other | 11:49 |
| mjg | b/c before i changed them it was fine | 11:49 |
| mjg | or a quick fix would be...how do i reset then to default | 11:49 |
| rick-u64 | lisa_: you mean hardware, or a vista-compatible software one? | 11:49 |
| mjg | is there a terminal code i can type for this? | 11:49 |
| mjg | i've googled it and can't find anything :*( | 11:49 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: using eset NOD32 and Kasperky free online scan saves me installing something. so I will keep using them. They have uptpdate scans anyway | 11:49 |
| x_hunter | hey guys ^^, i download a john the ripper it is .tar.gz extension but i want to install it help me please | 11:50 |
| lisa_ | rick-u64: software. i cannot afford hardware :P | 11:50 |

| balle_ | ActionParsnip: smart! | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | balle_: i dunno if thats the adobe one but its not hard to install really, try reinstalling from repos if its no good, get the adobe one | 12:12 |
| ActionParsnip | balle_: you can do it with all commands and filenames in the current directory | 12:13 |
| ActionParsnip | balle_: it helps if the file has spaces in as they are managed for you in the tab completion | 12:13 |
| balle_ | ActionParsnip: well.. the flash thing is still working(bad) after the purge, could it be that i might be running multiple flash players? is that even possible | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | you can if you have multiple youtube windows open at same time then visit www.rathergood.com | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | lotsa flash | 12:15 |
| balle_ | ActionParsnip: i am only trying to run 1 | 12:15 |

| balle_ | ActionParsnip: i just dont understand how i can play flash videos if i don't have a flash player. i have uninstalled everything i know of, but there obviously is one left somewhere, the bad one | 12:17 |
| balle_ | ActionParsnip: checken repos | 12:17 |

| shuboBE | How do i organize multiple Harddisks in ubuntu? Let say i have a OS-Hdisk and a data Hdisk. Where do i mount the data Hdisk? /data ? is there a standard place for it? | 12:36 |
| naxxtor | Slart: hmm, don't think it is but i'll poke it and see if it can help me anyway | 12:36 |
| hwilde | shuboBE, you can mount it wherever yo ulike | 12:36 |
| ActionParsni1 | shuboBE: you can mount them ANYWHERE | 12:37 |
| hwilde | shuboBE, if it's removeable media there is a /media directory | 12:37 |
| unop | shuboBE: preferably under /media/data perhaps | 12:37 |
| Slart | shuboBE: I would say any folder in /media/ would be fine.. I have a /media/storage for exampel | 12:37 |
| kernel_ghost | shuboBE: there is no standard place. u could mount under /media if u liked, but u can make a folder anywhere and mount it there | 12:37 |
| ActionParsni1 | shuboBE: you could mount it in /this/is/a/mount if you want | 12:37 |
| Slart | shuboBE: but there is nothing keeping you from mounting stuff anywhere in the normal file tree.. (avoiding /proc/ and such of course) | 12:38 |
| shuboBE | ah k, so there is no standard place | 12:38 |
| shuboBE | i'll just mount it in /media then | 12:38 |
| shuboBE | thx | 12:38 |
| ActionParsni1 | shuboBE: most opt for /mount | 12:38 |

| bazhang | balle_, how did you install flash | 12:48 |
| hwilde | balle_, do you have all the updates? that issue was resolved i thought | 12:48 |
| balle_ | hwilde: yes i do | 12:49 |
| balle_ | bazhang: sudp apt-get install and it is fully updated as well | 12:49 |
| ActionParsni1 | balle_: did you sort it? | 12:49 |
| hwilde | balle_, I heard lotsa people with that issue but I thought it was fixed... | 12:49 |
| bazhang | balle_, this is embedded flash or directly from youtube site | 12:49 |
| SlantS | can you connect to #gamesurge from this beast or what | 12:49 |
| balle_ | bazhang: all flash videos are a problem, other video streams work perfectly | 12:49 |

| ActionParsni1 | negge: not necessarily | 12:50 |
| ActionParsni1 | negge: its just another folder | 12:50 |
| bazhang | balle_, yes, I have been experiencing this in the past day or so as well | 12:50 |
| negge | ActionParsni1: yeah I know that, but the drive icons are clean | 12:50 |
| ActionParsni1 | negge: clean? | 12:51 |
| mib_czbuhp | thnx rocko :) | 12:51 |
| balle_ | bazhang: found a workaround or anything? | 12:51 |
| negge | ActionParsni1: it looks better + if I link it to a folder on my desktop I can't see it in the left pane in Nautilus nor in the Places menu | 12:51 |
| negge | that's why I want the icon there | 12:51 |
| mib_czbuhp | rocko | 12:51 |

| negge | ActionParsni1: what do you mean? | 12:52 |

| ActionParsni1 | negge: make the same symbolic link in /media | 12:53 |
| HappyHater | so quick to reboot | 12:53 |
| bazhang | balle_, still the 2 seconds and stop; may be an issue on the youtube end as the buffer fully loads (ie dragging the progress bar shows entire video) | 12:53 |
| balle_ | bazhang: that is correct, but i have been checking other sites as well.. same thing | 12:54 |
| mib_czbuhp | rocko, is your restricted drivers enabled now? | 12:54 |
| negge | ActionParsni1: what should I link? I still don't understand:D | 12:54 |
| hwilde | balle_, if you close all of your browsers and open one does the first one play correctly | 12:54 |
| bazhang | balle_, also lost sound after recent update but fiddling in sounds preferences brought it back--will look for any fixes | 12:54 |
| ActionParsni1 | negge: just like you ln -s before | 12:54 |
| rocko | mib_czbuhp: yeah it says its enabled. | 12:54 |
| balle_ | bazhang: sound is good on mine... | 12:55 |
| balle_ | hwilde: checking... | 12:55 |
| mib_czbuhp | mine doesn't XD | 12:55 |

| negge | ActionParsni1: I created a link from /media/WS09 to /media/test but I still don't get no icon | 12:58 |
| ra21vi | uhh, that was bad | 12:58 |
| bazhang | balle_, this is after the recent update, correct? | 12:58 |
| balle_ | Bazhang: exactly | 12:58 |
| ra21vi | ln -s /target/dir /new/dir/sym/name is working.. last time I actually used the trailing / | 12:58 |
| ActionParsni1 | negge: if its already in /media you dont need the symlink | 12:58 |
| ActionParsni1 | balle_: bah | 12:58 |
| negge | ActionParsni1: yes the mount is in media and it works and everything, I just don't get the usual drive icon | 12:58 |
| bazhang | balle_, I am guessing adobe as they are so bad the past eight months or so | 12:58 |

| balle_ | bazhang: yea well it might be, but kinda bad update as it messes up the program... | 12:59 |
| negge | ActionParsni1: I've been googling for some time now and it I haven't found an answer. I've seen a couple of threads on Ubuntuforums.org where people are asking the same question but they get no answer. Why can't the icon just appear whenever you mount something (this share is mounted with the cifs filesystem, is that what's doing this?) | 13:01 |
| ActionParsni1 | negge: well when you read or write to the device go to /media and track from there | 13:01 |
| ActionParsni1 | negge: or make a symlink in ~/ | 13:01 |
| ActionParsni1 | as the first place to save docs is ~/ | 13:02 |
| ActionParsni1 | ~/ == home | 13:02 |

| blessed_guess | hello naxxtor | 13:13 |
| Feldegast | what command would i use to set a path in ubuntu so i can then run apt and uninstall a package that is not letting me use my system, apt is not functioning due to path issues? | 13:13 |
| goldys | teisei : hmm... safe mode also cannot right click..hmm...weird, i don't think it compiz related | 13:13 |
| naxxtor | hi blessed_guess | 13:13 |
| blessed_guess | are you still there? | 13:14 |
| Teisei | Goldys: Does anything happen if you hold CTRL+ALT and press arrow buttons ? | 13:14 |
| gabriel__ | rapaziada, to com um problema aqui | 13:14 |
| Teisei | Like switching desktop | 13:14 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: yep, until i get this sound card working >_< | 13:14 |
| goldys | teisei : no, nothing | 13:14 |
| Ron-Na1 | I made a USB bootable from a live-CD! QUESTION: I need some packages, before I can use the Ethernet, can I pack the build-essential (including dependent packages) into the USB tree? If so where to put the .deb packages for use on the new machine? | 13:14 |
| gabriel__ | alguém aqui fala em portugues?? | 13:14 |
| goldys | i broke my gnome desktop..bahh | 13:14 |
| blessed_guess | my laptop uses intel 3945abg | 13:15 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: well, unless someone has come up with some hackery, i don't think you can put that into intrastructure mode | 13:15 |
| ActionParsni1 | Ron-Na1: find -name *.deb should give some indication | 13:15 |
| Teisei | goldys: go to safe mode and remove compiz from there ... apt-get remove compiz-gnome | 13:15 |
| Teisei | Try that one | 13:15 |
| Teisei | It worked for me | 13:15 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: you could try a zydas wireless card, or an atheros | 13:15 |
| lisa_ | !lisa | 13:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about lisa | 13:16 |
| hckblack_ | ActionParsni1, i try it ok? it seems to be working | 13:16 |
| goldys | teisei : wait, i try now | 13:16 |
| blessed_guess | do i need it to be in that mode to work | 13:16 |
| gabriel__ | do you speak portguese? | 13:16 |

| cr0w | the headphone do not work ,when I insert them . , is not usb but with jack | 13:16 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: you might be able to work out a way to make it work in adhoc mode, but i don't really know that'd work | 13:17 |
| blessed_guess | with due respect I work in adhoc mode to share internet connection in windows | 13:17 |
| goldys | teisei : removed compiz, so what next? | 13:17 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: oh, well, fair enough then :p i've never needed to make adhoc connections before | 13:17 |
| Teisei | Try entering gnome now | 13:17 |
| goldys | teisei : restart ctrl+alt+bckspace? | 13:18 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: i don't know how the N95 supports adhoc either | 13:18 |
| [z]neo | im just wondering why is it when i enable skydome the image not showing up but instead its only gradient color that show | 13:18 |
| blessed_guess | I have tried the little i know but keep getting no gateway reply | 13:18 |
| Teisei | Are you in text or graphical mode ? | 13:18 |
| goldys | graphical | 13:19 |

| Teisei | What is it ? | 13:21 |
| blessed_guess | also some scripts from the web about nat,masquerading | 13:21 |

| KINGABAN | im always getting a black screen after i restart my pc | 13:22 |
| KINGABAN | why is that? | 13:22 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: yeah, you will need to be masquerading .... should be easily enough done with IPtables | 13:22 |
| naxxtor | blessed_guess: can you ping the N95? | 13:22 |
| naxxtor | (i think they respond to ping ...) | 13:22 |
| Teisei | kingaban, what drivers are you using ? | 13:22 |

| R4ND0M | does someone know how to make wow run smoothly? I get only 25 fps when in XP my average was ~50 | 13:22 |
| Vexiq | KINGABAN: You mean you get a logo screen with a loading bar and then it goes black? | 13:22 |
| Feldegast | what command would i use to set a path in ubuntu so that apt can run? | 13:22 |
| Teisei | did you download them from nvidia website ? | 13:22 |
| KINGABAN | yes i always get that | 13:22 |
| blessed_guess | no | 13:23 |
| blessed_guess | I don't think so | 13:23 |
| KINGABAN | but what is the right nvidia driver for my geforce2 mx 400? | 13:23 |
| Vexiq | KINGABAN: You need to remove the drivers! I assume you use a live CD? (I had the same problem with the restricted drivers) | 13:23 |
| DIFH-iceroot | KINGABAN: the legacy driver | 13:23 |
| Teisei | you need nvidia-glx | 13:23 |
| Teisei | I suppose | 13:23 |
| KINGABAN | where can i find legacy driver and nvidia glx? | 13:23 |
| Teisei | nvidia-glx-new is for newer cards | 13:23 |
| DIFH-iceroot | Teisei: legacy, because gf2 is not in the normal driver | 13:23 |
| DIFH-iceroot | KINGABAN: apt-get | 13:23 |
| Teisei | I see | 13:23 |
| KINGABAN | i see | 13:23 |
| blessed_guess | but it is giving destination host unreachable | 13:23 |
| R4ND0M | can someone help me? | 13:24 |

| KINGABAN | now im getting segmentation faulty tree...73% | 13:27 |
| Teisei | "<KINGABAN> but what is the right nvidia driver for my geforce2 mx 400?" it needs legacy driver, just like DIFH-iceroot said | 13:27 |
| KINGABAN | why is that? | 13:27 |

| sindre | question: I got 2 500gb SATA + 60 and 13 gb PATA system disk. I want a easy solution for backup, ive been using one of the SATA for som time so its about 120 gb's on it that i cant delete. I have been thinking if setting it up in RAID, but i have never done it before. For a RAID setup, do i have to format both disk's? | 13:39 |
| tavi | show me java flash pplugin , runtikme enviroment but no shockwave | 13:39 |
| tavi | and on miniclip site still requires me plugins | 13:40 |
| Feldegast | sindre generally setting up raid requires 2 or more empty drives | 13:40 |
| stapel | I'm looking for a cheap NAS for home use. I need to share it between Ubuntu, Mac OS X, and Windows XP. There seems to be plenty of options but as soon as I start reading users reviews it looks to be not as promised by the manufacturer. Can anyone suggest a good option to look at? | 13:40 |
| Algyz | did you finish install? | 13:40 |
| Vexiq | did you do what Algyz been trying to tell you? | 13:40 |
| tavi | on ubuntu-ro noone answer...great | 13:40 |
| Vexiq | cause I did and it's still installing here ;) | 13:40 |
| anto9us | sindre, you first create raid partitions, then a container for those partitions and then format the container e.g. md0, make sure your /boot is outside the container though, I usually create a 1gb /boot partition | 13:41 |

| temoto-ds | ikonia, i did sudo apt-get install swat. It installed something. It even mentioned something about inetd. Browser doesn't connect. Should i run something by hand? | 14:27 |
| Slart | Vexiq: well.. then the soundcard actually works.. no need to think about drivers and such then | 14:27 |
| ikonia | temoto-ds: you'll have to enable the service in /etc/xinetd.d | 14:27 |
| soundray | ikonia: thanks -- I think I can read the file line by line, increase a counter for each matching line, and write out each string to a new file numbered by the counter. | 14:28 |
| hwilde | what is the "Right" way to make mysqld not run on boot? can I just delete the /etc/rc2.d/*mysql* | 14:29 |

| ikonia | hwilde: but your way works fine | 14:29 |
| hwilde | ikonia, and where is the runlevel now that inittab is gone? is 2 default | 14:30 |
| ikonia | hwilde: you want to delete it from run level 2 as ubutu uses run level 2 by default | 14:30 |
| hwilde | ikonia, where is that stored | 14:30 |
| soundray | hwilde: just 'sudo update-rc.d -f mysql remove' | 14:30 |

| c03 | hi | 14:34 |
| hwilde | ikonia, the correct answer is /etc/event.d/rc-default | 14:34 |

| praveen_ | I am unable to edit menus | 14:35 |
| c03 | hwilde: I can't find the program on the list | 14:35 |
| hwilde | c03, what program do you want | 14:35 |
| ikonia | hwilde: there is a --configure option to set a file, so that does make sense | 14:35 |
| c03 | hwilde: the math program, Maple 12 | 14:35 |

| Pici | darwin_: What are you trying to install and how are you installing it? | 14:47 |
| juano_ | kbrosnan: oops missed the "i have restarted part" | 14:47 |
| unop | mm2000, put your user in the www-data group .. now any files or directories that are owned by the www-data group are accessible by you - what access you have depends on the permissions given to the group obviously.. | 14:48 |
| darwin_ | terminal rosegarden 1.7.1 | 14:48 |
| darwin_ | using cmake . | 14:48 |
| soundray | chazco: the keyword you want to look for is 'panning'. Apparently you have to use the Virtual keyword in xorg.conf (but my X won't start when I try). Have a look at http://forum.eeeuser.com/viewtopic.php?id=8242 -- perhaps it'll work better for you | 14:48 |
| darwin_ | Pici, ^^ | 14:48 |
| Pici | darwin_: rosegarden is in the repositories, is there any reason you are trying to do so from source? | 14:48 |
| juano_ | kbrosnan: but still your wrong because if you reboot you sometimes login to cached sessions | 14:48 |
| td123 | is there an option during the ubuntu install where you can set up a raid-0 ? | 14:48 |
| darwin_ | of course the release version | 14:49 |

| haris_ | and firefox still won't opne | 14:49 |
| chazco | soundray - Thanks... i've had a go with the virtual command in xorg... it starts up, but there is no way to change to the virtual resolution (which isnt listed anywhere) | 14:49 |
| darwin_ | also can't make it sound | 14:49 |
| cratel | darwin_: there's already a .deb for this: http://www.rosegardenmusic.com/getting/ | 14:49 |

| Armored_Azrael | This may be the wrong place to ask, but what's the rationale behind not installing -dev packages by default, given how much space people have on their drives these days, and the inconvenience that not having them causes? | 15:01 |
| aestrivex | the microphone on my VF0410 Creative Live! Cam Video IM Pro does not appear to be functioning. i have the UVC driver working. the video works fine. the audio device is not being recognized, leading me to suspect that there is some problem with the audio driver. i have no idea what the problem is. | 15:02 |

| carrot9 | helper, I boot the ubuntu5 livecd, can't recognize my sata CDROM when booting. How to treat it? | 15:02 |
| hwilde | Armored_Azrael, the majority of users will never need a -dev package so why would you want to make the install take longer | 15:02 |
| haris_ | but i'm sure the process is not running | 15:02 |
| bazhang | haris_, install pastebinit | 15:02 |
| haris_ | i already check ps -e and top | 15:02 |
| haptiK | kevin083: and that didn't answer my question | 15:02 |

| haris_ | several times | 15:02 |
| kevinO | Armored_Azrael, dev files are only needed for development i believe | 15:02 |
| haris_ | how do you check the lock file? | 15:02 |
| kbrosnan | haris_: did the Mozilla Support document not work? | 15:02 |
| hwilde | haris_, follow this link and delete the .parentlock http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox+is+already+running+but+is+not+responding | 15:02 |
| Armored_Azrael | kevinO: Or for building any software that isn't prepackaged. | 15:03 |
| house2 | hey, i'm trying to use the ubuntu-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso, when booting it hangs on "starting Hardware abstraction layer hald", any idea how to solve that? or is there a simple way to boot without hald enabled? | 15:03 |
| robf_ | I think I need more ram | 15:03 |
| haris_ | hwilde, i can't open that | 15:03 |
| Armored_Azrael | hwilde: Header files are small, will take at most another one or two seconds to copy, and at least in my experience end up causing you pain when you don't have them later | 15:03 |
| kevinO | Armored_Azrael, indeed. | 15:03 |
| darwin_ | unop, build is taking longer than usual apt-get | 15:03 |
| robf_ | have ddr3 prices dropped any? | 15:03 |
| hwilde | haris_, it's umm .mozilla/firefox/*default/.parentlock | 15:03 |

| aestrivex | the microphone on my VF0410 Creative Live! Cam Video IM Pro does not appear to be functioning. i have the UVC driver working. the video works fine. the audio device is not being recognized, leading me to suspect that there is some problem with the audio driver. i have no idea what the problem is. | 15:04 |
| Armored_Azrael | kevinO: For example, try installing a development version of pidgin for a new feature sometime. You'll find that you need to install about 20 packages to get the headers for libraries you already have to get it to build. | 15:04 |
| unop | darwin_, well, quite obviously :) building something (i.e. compiling from source) takes much longer than just unpacking files from an archive | 15:04 |
| Armored_Azrael | kevinO: I understand having a non-header version available for ultra-small systems, and it may have made sense back in the day, but it seems a bit overkill now... | 15:04 |
| unop | darwin_, why do you think ubuntu is a binary distro? and not a source based one? :) | 15:04 |
| Reformer81 | robf_: So if I just autoremove kde-base, I should be good? | 15:05 |
| kevinO | Armored_Azrael, then pidgin should have it documented somewhere the files you require | 15:05 |
| darwin_ | good point unop | 15:05 |
| bazhang | Reformer81, what are you trying to do | 15:05 |
| Armored_Azrael | kevinO: You're missing the point--they do have it documented, but I shouldn't have to install more things to make a library that I have already work. | 15:05 |
| Ron-Na1 | I created the USB flash drive with Unetbootin-linux-248. Is it a USB installation or just a live-CD? | 15:05 |
| darwin_ | source based is cool for me | 15:05 |
| Reformer81 | bazhang: Remove KDE without losing Amarok, Ktorrent, etc. | 15:05 |
| kevinO | Armored_Azrael, and is so, installing all the required dev files is as simple as 1 copy and paste | 15:05 |
| bazhang | Armored_Azrael, this is better in #ubuntu-offtopic | 15:05 |

| kevinO | Armored_Azrael, well many of us do not want a hd full of un-necessary -dev files... I get your point man | 15:06 |
| tbic | I have a Acer Aspire 5610, running Ubuntu, if I leave it sit for just a few minutes with out moving the mouse or pressing a key, the WiFi will quit working any ideas? | 15:06 |

| adityag | something is wrong with my panel, when i press the CLOSE button on any window like pidgin, it quits entirely instead of being there in the panel, what do i do ? | 15:38 |
| ogzy | bytecode, yes i toggled the options, still not able to detect the dongle | 15:38 |
| bytecode | ogzy: which services are you running? ( bluetooh preferences -> services tab) | 15:38 |
| unop | rubystallion, actually this might be better. dpkg --get-selections | sed -n 's/deinstall\|purge/install/p' | sudo dpkg --set-selections | 15:39 |
| ogzy | bytecode, audio and input | 15:39 |
| HymnToLife | adityag: that's what the close button is supposed to do : close it... pidgin should still be in the systrau, yhough | 15:39 |
| wasabi | It is mostly funny that in this day and age, I still can't get my Ubuntu desktop to print to a windows network printer while on a domain, properly. | 15:39 |
| hwilde | wasabi, why not it's so easy | 15:40 |
| mien07 | GUYS | 15:40 |
| adityag | HymnToLife: but it should be there in the panel next to the time,right ? | 15:40 |
| bytecode | ogzy: same as my settings... I would normally expect you to be able to scan for your computer via your device and see it's name, suffixed by the adapter number (0,1,2 etc depending upon how many adaptors are present - count is from 0) | 15:40 |
| wasabi | hwilde: the authentication is all screwed up somehow. the pritners require kerberos. | 15:40 |
| dtcrshr | hi people, iv got a little issue regardind to my samba server, the public folder asks for password, and the private ones are working just fine | 15:40 |

| HymnToLife | adityag: yes, that's called the system tray. whixh environment are you using ? | 15:41 |

| Guest65814 | hi | 15:45 |
| adityag | how do i enable system tray ? | 15:45 |
| Ash-Fox | No, I don't know what device it will appear has, so you will need to type 'dmesg' to find out | 15:45 |
| nixnoob_ | adityag: right click on panel and add a notification area | 15:45 |
| hacker2k8 | nixnoob_how about manually | 15:45 |

| Some_Person | Is there a way I can capture DV video from a camcorder connected to the computer via USB? | 15:48 |
| AaronHall | gorski, that should revert tvtime back to default settings and should allow it to start up for you again | 15:48 |
| bytecode | ogzy: sorry my friend - you have stumped me - other than to check the list of packages that you have installed, maybe ensure you have the obex-data-server package installed, I'd also expect the following to be installed: bluetooth bluez-gnome bluez-utils gnome-bluetooth, but I'd expect everything to already be installed if you have it working as far as you do.. | 15:48 |

| Ash-Fox | Mavs, yes. | 15:51 |
| kappaccino | a | 15:51 |
| bazhang | joseph_cheah, best to just the question; the experts are not about right now | 15:51 |

| ogzy | bytecode, ok thanx anyway | 15:52 |
| AaronHall | unsure, gorski. sorry. It's been a long time since I've even ran tvtime. | 15:52 |
| bazhang | Mavs, for vista? | 15:52 |
| Ash-Fox | Mavs, yes, you could copy the mbr from another windows vista system and stick that into your MBR | 15:52 |
| gorski | ok | 15:52 |
| soundray | Mavs: don't know if NTLDR has changed much, but in the XP days, you'd just have to remove the Linux entry from C:\BOOT.INI | 15:52 |
| Guest65814 | jhjksdfjsdfj | 15:52 |
| Mavs | boot.ini is unavailable at vista :( | 15:53 |
| Ash-Fox | soundray, I believe he is complaining about GRUB though. | 15:53 |
| lovok | How do I partition my hdds using LVM ? | 15:53 |
| Mavs | not about grub | 15:53 |
| soundray | Mavs: are you trying to remove wubi? | 15:53 |

| soundray | Ash-Fox: see? | 15:53 |
| Ash-Fox | Mavs, oh, there is a operatign system editor in the system control panel item | 15:53 |
| soundray | :) | 15:53 |

| ePhil | does anyone have some experience with unison? I need it to sync two directorys in a way that will add files on both sides (not delete them on one side). | 15:54 |
| === Asday is now known as Asday|dead | ||

| os2mac | Ash-Fox: thanks.... how do I append to the env variable.. I.E. I just want to add something not overwrite it. | 15:54 |
| Mavs | which shows ubuntu and vista there | 15:54 |

| Ash-Fox | os2mac, export PATH=$PATH:addedpath | 15:55 |
| hacker2k8 | foes anyone has the idea of remote desktop ubuntu from xp? | 15:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mavs did you install ubuntu from inside windows? | 15:55 |
| ePhil | mien07: telnet 127.0.0.1 80 (Exit with Crt + 5) | 15:55 |
| kenkku | os2mac: /etc/environment if you want it systemwide | 15:55 |

| Mavs | yes | 15:56 |
| Mavs | I used wubi to install it | 15:56 |
| Guest65814 | fetch mail is fetch mail from remote mail server? | 15:56 |
| bazhang | !info fetchmail | 15:56 |
| ubottu | fetchmail (source: fetchmail): SSL enabled POP3, APOP, IMAP mail gatherer/forwarder. In component main, is optional. Version 6.3.8-10ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 364 kB, installed size 1796 kB | 15:56 |

| Ash-Fox | Would anyone know I can change the font encoding of a console (ctrl + alt + f1/f2/f3 etc.) to use the CP437 character encoding? Additionally, how does one turn off the screensaver on the console too? | 15:56 |
| Guest65814 | yup ubuntu | 15:56 |
| Mavs | I removed the files only thing remaining is the boot entry | 15:56 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !wubi > Mavs | 15:57 |

| os2mac | kenkku: one more question. how do I reread /etc/environment after the change? | 15:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mavs Did you remove ubuntu with uninstall or did you manually delete the file | 15:58 |
| oshua86 | #remote-exploit | 15:58 |
| fevel | good mornin | 15:58 |
| Mavs | the uninstall failed | 15:58 |
| lovok | Does anyone want to help me with partitioning my hdd ? | 15:58 |
| Mavs | so the files are manually removed | 15:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mavs You need to go find help from wubi | 15:58 |
| bjb1959 | wireless connection but no webpages any idea? | 15:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mavs or from windows | 15:59 |
| Mavs | does wubi has a chan in this server? | 15:59 |
| soundray | os2mac: good question, I'd like to know that, too. For a single shell session, you can just '. /etc/environment', but to do it for gnome or the entire system, I don't know a way other than to reboot. | 15:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mavs no idea | 16:00 |
| fevel | has anyone had dificulties syncing photos to the ipod touch? fter syncingg the album appears on the ipod but when I choosse it the frame no photos on this Ipod appears. Any ideas? | 16:00 |
| hlfshell | so i pulled out an sd card by accident without unmounting it first, and now no machine can mount the one partition on it htat i need. does anyone have any idea how to make it mountable again? | 16:00 |
| kenkku | os2mac: source /etc/environment | 16:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hlfshell what type of partitiopn | 16:01 |
| kenkku | well, ok, that'll just affect the current shell session | 16:01 |
| phoenix_ | Hi folks, On my Ubuntu-Desktop I have a nice notification gizmo, that tells me when updates and security-updates are available, can anyone give me some pointers for servers? I want to know, if a server has updates and especially security updates pending. | 16:01 |
| kenkku | most probably | 16:01 |
| hlfshell | SD card is partitioned into 4 partitions. the biggest is sdb4, Primary part type, FS is Linux JFS | 16:01 |
| os2mac | shoot! that didn't work. | 16:01 |
| td123 | Is there an option to set-up lvm (raid 0) during the ubuntu alternate install? | 16:01 |
| soundray | os2mac: . /etc/environment | 16:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hlfshell you should find an jfs room. our default is ext3 and is used by most here | 16:02 |
| hlfshell | Jack_Sparrow - any ideas? | 16:02 |
| soundray | os2mac: I take it back, it's the same as source | 16:02 |
| hlfshell | Jack_Sparrow - it has very important data that i need and i need to recover it asap. can you at least point me in the right direction? | 16:03 |
| eraldo | anyone got the e160 usb datamodem to work yet ? | 16:03 |
| joaopinto | phoenix_, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 16:03 |
| soundray | hlfshell: maybe 'man jfs_fsck' | 16:03 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hlfshell I did.. look for a channel on jfs.. It is not our default type and we cnat help much | 16:04 |
| phoenix_ | joaopinto: I know how to perform the task - but I want to be notified, I want to monitor it... I don't want to run that all morning on all my servers... | 16:04 |
| os2mac | ok here is the real problem. I installed perl 5.10 to /opt/ but there is already a distro in /usr/bin so when I type perl -v it gives me the version in /usr/bin rather that /opt | 16:04 |
| hlfshell | alright well thanks for the help | 16:04 |
| wishie | _most_ of my laptops 'extra buttons' work by default, but some dont. the ones that dont, dont even show up using xev.. any ideas on how i would get them to work ? | 16:05 |
| kenkku | phoenix_: I'd say run apt-get update with cron every day and then run a script that finds upgradeable packages (probably can be done with aptitude or something) and f.ex. mails them to you | 16:05 |
| joaopinto | phoenix_, you can create a script to send you the email based on the sudo apt-get upgrade output... | 16:05 |
| soundray | wishie: you'd have to get (or write) a driver for those | 16:05 |
| kenkku | phoenix_: another way is to just enable the security update repos and make cron upgrade automatically | 16:05 |

| Operator | oh thats the guy i needed lol ^ | 16:09 |
| soundray | phildbole: ISO files are disk images. You can mount or burn, but not run them | 16:09 |
| anhdh | i found a device audio in /dev --> i use mount command to mount a mp3 file to this device but the sound is weird??? how can i configure it??? | 16:09 |

| phildbole | soudray - right i have downloaded iso for 8.04 but dont know how to use it....,.new to linux and ubuntu | 16:10 |
| Chousuke | that... sounds wrong :) | 16:10 |
| soundray | anhdh: very creative use of linux. Why don't you use player software? | 16:10 |
| soundray | !player | anhdh | 16:10 |
| ubottu | anhdh: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 16:10 |

| phildbole | soundray sorry important phone call please wait one min please if youcan | 16:20 |
| fde | percyraw: gksudo gparted | 16:20 |
| soundray | percyraw: don't edit the partitions in a running system. Boot from a live CD. | 16:20 |
| DJ|P3nd1nG | hello! | 16:20 |
| nibsa1242b | percyraw: you may need to boot from the live CD; can't edit partitions while they are mounted | 16:20 |
| fde | percyraw: I'd advice using it in the Ubuntu Live CD though... uhhh as soundray points out | 16:20 |
| DJ|P3nd1nG | who could i hide my ip in irc??? | 16:20 |

| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: is the basement machine connected wirelessly or by wire? | 16:30 |

| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b, wireless | 16:31 |

| bjb1959 | yes | 16:31 |
| fde | chase_: ahh, 'grub-mkrescue' sorry | 16:32 |
| chase_ | soundray: yes, but I was going to use the tut that the bot linked me to, unless you want to help me with another way | 16:32 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: and they are all running Ubuntu? | 16:32 |
| soundray | nemo: have a look at the gimp-plugin-registry package | 16:32 |

| fde | chase_: master boot record... it is how PC's boot. | 16:33 |
| nemo | soundray: yep. that was it. thanks | 16:33 |
| nixnoob_ | chase_: MBR = master boot record, a special place on the beginning of your harddisk that contanis information for booting each operating system. | 16:34 |
| chase_ | fde: oh, I havent seen it abbreviated before | 16:34 |
| godzirra | legend2440: don't think so. How do I check to be sure? | 16:34 |
| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b, sorry tried to run router wizard again to see if that fixes anything | 16:34 |
| chase_ | yes I know what it is, I didnt know the abbreviation | 16:34 |
| ckg | can anyone tell me why my xchart does not display the tail of every sentence | 16:34 |
| soundray | chase_: I understand you've put quite some time in your package selection and compiz configuration. Have you got lots of user data, too? | 16:34 |
| fde | chase_: on Windows, the 'format' command even takes /mbr as an option :/ | 16:34 |
| fde | chase_: has since MS-DOS 3 or something | 16:35 |
| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b, didn't change anything | 16:35 |
| nibsa1242b | nibsa1242b: thats fine; I'm just thinking about where the problem would be... | 16:35 |

| nixnoob_ | chase_: what do you mean windows can use with hardy? | 16:35 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: is there anyway you can connect one of the problem machines via a cable and see if that would resolve the issue? | 16:35 |
| soundray | chase_: I'm trying to help you, am I not? | 16:35 |
| nemo | nixnoob_: yeah. no kidding given linux has pretty good support for NTFS these days | 16:36 |
| bjb1959 | not close to a cable | 16:36 |

| chase_ | soundray: you are, sorry. how can I set up a FTS (I think its FTS) partition for windows, using hardy | 16:36 |
| nemo | nixnoob_: I tend to use C:\ as my windows partition for linux to access these days :) | 16:36 |

| Pici | anhdh: Its a program, not a person. | 16:37 |
| LSD|Ninja | anhdh: it's not that hard to be on irc all the time... | 16:37 |

| soundray | chase_: I understand you've put quite some time in your package selection and compiz configuration. Have you got lots of user data, too? | 16:37 |
| nixnoob_ | chase_: you cant setup NTFS partitions with hardy you have to use the windows disk | 16:37 |
| nemo | nixnoob_: heck. under linux I even have Firefox pointed to the profile under /media/Windows/Documents and Settings/nemo/ etc | 16:38 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: ok... | 16:38 |
| chase_ | soundray: yes, I would rather not have to lose any linux data | 16:38 |
| anhdh | LSD|Ninja, what is irc :(?? | 16:38 |
| nixnoob_ | nemo: i stopped using windows completely a year ago, I have an XP VM but i rarely ever use it. | 16:38 |
| chase_ | soundray: I have both the ubuntu hardy and XP boot disk | 16:38 |
| soundray | chase_: okay, in that case, whichever way you go, make sure you backup your work first. | 16:38 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: can you pastebin the results of an ifconfig for me? | 16:38 |
| LSD|Ninja | anhdh: <- ^ -> is all IRC | 16:39 |
| chase_ | soundray: I have only been using linux for 3 days so I dont know how I would back up my data with linux | 16:39 |
| soundray | chase_: what do you get from 'df -h /'? | 16:39 |
| bjb1959 | sure give me a couple minutes | 16:39 |
| soundray | chase_: I'm helping you with that, too | 16:39 |

| hwilde | anybody ever use the usbmon module ? | 16:40 |
| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b on the wired or wireless? | 16:40 |
| phantomas | how can i open an img file? | 16:40 |
| soundray | nixnoob_: he wants a dual boot XP/Ubuntu system, starting from a Ubuntu-only. | 16:40 |
| chase_ | soundray: I got Filesystem size used avail use$ Mounted on | 16:40 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: on the wireless (problem machine); but the wired might be nice to compare if its not too much trouble | 16:40 |
| fde | phantomas: mount -t raw -o loop the.img /somewhere | 16:40 |
| chase_ | soundray: /dev/sdal 145G 3.6G 135G 3% | 16:40 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: this may be somewhat similar to your problem? http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com/msg889015.html | 16:41 |
| nixnoob_ | soundray: why doesnt he shrink his existing partition with gparted and install windose on the empty space and then reinstall grub? | 16:41 |
| anhdh | dual boot is easy install xP first and then ubuntu | 16:41 |
| chase_ | soundray and the last one i forgot is / | 16:41 |
| ffm|sh | how do I start my own vpn on ubuntu? | 16:41 |

| ompaul | !openvpn | ffm|sh | 16:41 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about openvpn | 16:41 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: lol; true | 16:41 |
| soundray | nixnoob_: we might get to that, but he's put a lot of work into config and stuff, so the sensible first step is to have a backup. | 16:41 |
| godzirra | legend2440: thats -exactly- my problem. But its not middle mouse button for me. | 16:41 |
| lufis | I've got a thumbdrive that isn't being recognized at all by hardy. Sometimes it will recognize it momentarily, but then instantaneously unmount it. Other usb devices work fine in the same ports, i.e., webcams, a usb audio device, etc. But thumdrives of any sort don't seem to be recognized (not even in lsusb) and if they are, they aren't automounting. These thumdrives work fine on my laptop, oddly enough, but on this desktop system it's a no go | 16:41 |
| godzirra | But the rest of iti is exactly the same | 16:41 |
| darwin_ | just installed rosegarden 1.7.1 also jack and everything it asked me to, nevertheless, I can't hear a single note. any clue ubottu ? | 16:41 |
| ompaul | ffm|sh, use a program called openvpn the howto on the website is brilliant it just works (if you follow it exactly ;-)) | 16:42 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: you have ati card? | 16:42 |
| ffm|sh | ompaul: kk. | 16:42 |
| nixnoob_ | soundray: copy his $HOME to DVD and let him be on his merry way, use dd to create an image... | 16:42 |
| soundray | chase_: okay, so you have 3.6GB of your 145 GB in use. Do you have an external hard disk drive? | 16:42 |
| godzirra | legend2440: It is an ATI card. | 16:42 |
| nixnoob_ | soundray: sorry if im being captain obvious | 16:42 |
| chase_ | soundray: yes I do | 16:42 |
| soundray | nixnoob_: thanks -- I want to use a slightly different approach, and I know what to do. | 16:43 |
| * fde ponders why chase_ is worried about backing up 3 days worth of stuff... it'd take less time to just re-do it | 16:43 | |
| chivas | hi | 16:43 |
| soundray | chase_: does it have ~3GB of free space? | 16:43 |
| chase_ | fde: its because I am not linux savy and it would take me a long time to set it back up | 16:43 |
| chase_ | soundray: yes | 16:44 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: have you made any changes to xorg.conf or tried new drivers lately? or maybe hardy did some update lately regarding xorg? | 16:44 |
| phantomas | fde i mounted to /mnt/sth | 16:44 |
| ompaul | !openvpn | ffm|sh | 16:44 |
| ubottu | ffm|sh: openvpn is OpenVPN is a vpn technology for which there are packages in Ubuntu and most other GNU/Linux Distributions, see http://openvpn.net/ and see the documentation "HOWTO" | 16:44 |
| phantomas | and when i go there | 16:44 |
| soundray | chase_: here's my recommendation for backing up: | 16:44 |
| phantomas | its empty | 16:44 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959 I wish I could help more... but I'm not really sure where to go from here. | 16:44 |
| godzirra | legend2440: ITs my wife's laptop, she said she updated with whatever was in the update list. | 16:44 |
| godzirra | legend2440: so I'm not 100% positive. | 16:44 |
| ompaul | ffm|sh, you can install it with "sudo apt-get install openvpn" on both ends | 16:44 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: I think what is going on is your wireless machines aren't accessing DNS properly, however, your wired machine is. I have no idea why. | 16:44 |
| fde | phantomas: how big was the initial .img file? | 16:45 |
| soundray | chase_: boot from a live CD and 'sudo apt-get install partimage'. Plugin the external HD and make sure you know where it's mounted. | 16:45 |
| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b, I will pastebin now give me a minute | 16:45 |
| phantomas | about 4 MB | 16:45 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: ok | 16:45 |
| chase_ | what do you mean by know were it is mounted? | 16:45 |

| anhdh | chase_, why don't you use gparted to creat a new partion from old one??? | 16:46 |
| godzirra | legend2440: I'm not sure where its enabled or how to turn it off so its not loading by default. I looked in sessions, but its not there as far as I can see. | 16:46 |
| soundray | chase_: something like /media/DISK probably. Run 'partimage' and create an image of your /dev/sda1 and write it to /media/DISK/sda1-partimage.img | 16:46 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: if you disable compiz does it still crash? | 16:46 |
| chase_ | anhdh: I dont know what gparted is, I am just going by what the ppl helping me are saying. | 16:46 |
| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b, here it is http://pastebin.ca/1092593 | 16:46 |
| fde | phantomas: there should be files there, idk why theres not. | 16:46 |
| godzirra | legend2440: disabling compiz kills me gnome bars, so not sure. :) Since I can't minimize it after killing compiz. | 16:46 |
| yao | 就是在那里没找到答案 | 16:46 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: do you have a dns server listed in /etc/resolv.conf on the problem machine (you can just cat the file and let me know what is there) | 16:46 |
| bjb1959 | yes om.cox.net | 16:47 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: system>preferences>appearance>visual effects tab | 16:47 |
| kenkku | yao: this channel is english only | 16:47 |
| anhdh | chase_, gparted is just like partion magic | 16:47 |
| soundray | chase_: that'll take a few minutes, after which you will have a full backup of your current system, just in case. | 16:47 |
| chase_ | soundray: can i check were it is mounted to by pluging it in now? | 16:47 |
| yao | 中文的在哪里呀请问 | 16:47 |
| phantomas | fde: ok anyway thank you | 16:47 |
| phildbole | is soundray still around | 16:48 |
| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: give me a min... comparing your ifconfig with one from one of my machines | 16:48 |
| kenkku | is there anyone who can tell that guy that this is english? | 16:48 |
| soundray | chase_: yes. Plug it in and run 'mount' in a terminal. The line containing /media/... is it | 16:48 |
| fde | kenkku: the bot already did, he's just ignoring it | 16:48 |
| soundray | phildbole: yes | 16:48 |
| kenkku | I guess. I'm not sure if that's chinese though | 16:48 |
| kenkku | could be japanese too, I guess | 16:48 |

| phildbole | soundray in cdrm0 browser there is just the iso | 16:49 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: in system>admin>hardware drivers is there a entry regarding ATI and if so is the box checked? | 16:49 |
| db92 | its chinese im almost certain, i almost recognize the symbols :p | 16:49 |
| newuser_ | hello, I was asking for help yesterday on a problem while loading nautilus: There was a problem registering the panel with the bonobo-activation server. The error code is: 3 The panel will now exit. Anyone has a solution for this problem? Already tried to fix the date and time and restart gdm, but still got the problem | 16:49 |
| soundray | phildbole: what I suspected | 16:49 |
| fde | kenkku: some characters are exactly the same, so I'd guess he understood. | 16:49 |
| godzirra | legend2440: yes and yes. | 16:49 |
| soundray | phildbole: you have to create a CD from the iso, not just copy the ISO to a CD. | 16:49 |
| soundray | !burniso | phildbole | 16:49 |
| ubottu | phildbole: To burn an ISO image of a CD in Linux, Mac OS or Windows, read the howto at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 16:49 |
| phildbole | soundray ahh so i need to go get nautilus and write to new cd | 16:50 |
| godzirra | legend2440: okay, when I Went into the preferences and chose "none" under visual effects, I can't seem to reproduce the error. | 16:50 |
| ninix | hi, if i got an ati 9200, it ati or radeaon i should use ? | 16:50 |
| soundray | phildbole: or right-click the iso on your desktop and select "Write image" | 16:50 |
| godzirra | legend2440: compiz decorator is still running though. | 16:50 |
| chase_ | soundray: ok it is mounted on /media/FreeAgent Drive type fuseblk | 16:50 |
| soundray | phildbole: yes, you will need a new CD-R | 16:50 |
| bjb1959 | nibsa1242b, I just figured it out. believe it or not all I had to do was add the 192.168.0.1 dns server back into my dns server list. duh.... Thanks for the help | 16:50 |
| phildbole | soundray - thanks i'll be back later... | 16:51 |
| soundray | chase_: okay, so you will know when you set up partimage where to write your disk image: /media/FreeAgent/sda1-partimage.img | 16:51 |
| godzirra | legend2440: I guess for now I'll just run without compiz. :) Thank you for your help. | 16:51 |
| nixnoob_ | anyone know of a good alternative to irssi or is irssi the best? | 16:51 |
| soundray | chase_: in principle, you could do this from where you are, but imaging a mounted partition is not quite as reliable, so I always boot from a live CD. | 16:52 |
| godzirra | "Best" is relative. | 16:52 |
| legend2440 | godzirra: here is more info on the bug. but i don't see a definitive fix yet https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/241145 | 16:52 |

| nibsa1242b | bjb1959: is that working for you now? | 16:52 |
| chase_ | soundray: ok so all that I have to do now is boot to my live cd then partimage to /media/FreeAgent/sdaL-partimage.img | 16:53 |
| bjb1959 | yep, just had to add that line. somehow got removed, probably an update | 16:53 |

| godzirra | I've tried a few of them, and its been my favorite for years. | 16:54 |

| chase_ | soundray: but how? | 16:55 |
| chase_ | soundray: would I put in my live CD, boot from it, but what would I do from there? | 16:56 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 16:56 |
| soundray | chase_: but when you're in the live CD, you could try using gparted to move your partitions around a bit and make space for Windows. | 16:56 |
| chase_ | soundray: ok I will try to do that | 16:56 |
| nixnoob_ | no1r: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 16:56 |
| soundray | chase_: that way, you preserve your Ubuntu installation and won't have to restore. | 16:56 |

| energY | onats: rtorrent | 16:58 |
| zvacet | onats : try rtorrent | 16:58 |
| energY | onats: libtorrent | 16:58 |
| energY | rtorrent is the text based frontend | 16:58 |
| jeek | Why not just write a perl script to fetch the .torrent via http then start up a normal commandline client? | 16:58 |
| zvacet | energY : that is what he is asking for | 16:59 |
| bastid_raZor | why not have your torrent program monitor a directory and when a .torrent is put in there it starts the download. | 16:59 |
| onats | jeek, because i am not an expert in perl | 16:59 |
| energY | zvacet: rtorrent or libtorrent? | 16:59 |
| no1r | is there any other way nixnoob? i get the restricted drivers window, but i cant seem to find ndisgtk to bring windows drivers over | 16:59 |

| zvacet | greatdane77 : why do you need it | 17:02 |
| nixnoob_ | no1r: do you have an interface called ath0 when you do ifconfig in console? | 17:03 |
| greatdane77 | How do I access the Firewall that's built in with Ubuntu? | 17:04 |
| bazhang | iptables greatdane77 | 17:04 |
| no1r | no nix i dont. | 17:04 |
| zvacet | greatdane77 : Ubuntu comes with ufw (uncomplicated firewall) | 17:04 |
| chase_ | soundray: I am on my live CD and it says partimage inst installed, I try to install and it says you will have to enable the component called "universe" | 17:04 |
| no1r | just eth0 and lo | 17:04 |
| soundray | chase_: you can do that in System-Administration-Software Sources | 17:05 |
| nixnoob_ | no1r: hmm, does it list your atheros card when you do lspci ? does it give you a model number? | 17:05 |

| nixnoob_ | no1r: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=863777 | 17:08 |
| chase_ | soundray: what image file to creat/use? | 17:09 |
| wols_ | omar_: wget or curl definitely don't hand out a python trackback. please paste the wget command and its full output | 17:09 |
| soundray | chase_: I've told you all you need to know -- I won't tell you again. Happy to confirm your choices, though. | 17:10 |
| kenkku | lakitu: the server image does not include any graphical environment, please use the desktop version | 17:10 |
| wols_ | bazhang: my guess: a small beowulf | 17:10 |
| Pinas_ | i have a little problem too. Some times my bunjee Musik Player dont wants to play my music. I simply press Play an it happens nothing | 17:10 |
| lakitu | kenkku: thanks. then what's the server for? | 17:10 |
| kenkku | lakitu: it's for.. well, servers :) | 17:10 |
| Pinas_ | same with other players | 17:10 |

| ruzz311 | I have also tried on windows and am still getting errors. anyone have experience with errors installing inside windows? | 17:11 |
| lakitu | kenkku: like, pardon my ignorance, really, but a http server? ftp? | 17:11 |
| bazhang | harron, you can /msg ubottu irc for a link to all freenode channels | 17:11 |
| bazhang | wols_, thanks | 17:11 |
| soundray | chase_: yes | 17:11 |
| nixnoob_ | no1r: in terminal sudo apt-get install ndisgtk | 17:11 |
| xnv | tgpraveen: Why do you need an IDE when you have vim? | 17:11 |
| lakitu | kenkku: other? | 17:11 |
| tgpraveen | is eclipse ok for a noob? | 17:11 |
| omar_ | wols_: Okay, my problem is not about wget itself, it's about easy_install, it seems like it needs a module with the name "webob", which I have no clue where to get. | 17:11 |
| wols_ | omar_: we don't either | 17:11 |
| harron | thanks | 17:11 |
| zetheroo | I want to put videos on my PDA but I want to first downsize them because they are about 700MB each | 17:11 |
| kenkku | lakitu: just a server generally. servers can run all kinds of stuff, like HTTP, FTP, SSH, IRC... | 17:12 |
| wols_ | omar_: it's not in ubuntu | 17:12 |
| wols_ | omar_: what software is this you try to install? | 17:12 |
| kenkku | lakitu: HTTP and FTP servers are programs that are installable on the operating system | 17:12 |
| xnv | Anyone know where I can find an explanation for the colors used by gnome-terminal, e.g. why something would be red when doing an ls? | 17:12 |

| Pinas_ | tgpraveen depends what you wanna do with eclipse | 17:12 |
| ruzz311 | The last time I've tired to install ubuntu inside windows the error said "The download was interrupted with the following error" and then it did not give an error | 17:12 |
| omar_ | wols_: A python module. | 17:12 |
| lakitu | kenkku: ok, & i think i want to run a http server. but i also want a graphical interface. is that possible? | 17:12 |
| ruzz311 | but it seemed like it did it right after the checksum | 17:12 |
| nixnoob_ | chazco: my hardy is much faster than xp and i havent done anything to it. | 17:12 |
| wols_ | omar_: I KNOW it's a python module. more info needed | 17:12 |
| bazhang | chazco, this is for msi wind or other | 17:13 |
| danhs | I have a weird problem with my monitor hooked up to my laptop | 17:13 |
| xnv | lakitu: Yes, it is. | 17:13 |
| wols_ | lakitu: yes | 17:13 |
| nixnoob_ | chazco: you can try eliminating some unnecessary services. | 17:13 |
| chazco | bazhang - Msiwind and others | 17:13 |
| danhs | when I'm starting my computer the ubuntu logo and the progress bar appear on my external monitor | 17:13 |
| lakitu | ok - is it 'doable' for a beginning linux user? | 17:13 |
| lordleemo | omar_: http://ubuntu.interlegis.gov.br/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/python-webob/?C=S;O=A | 17:13 |
| kenkku | lakitu: yes, of course, all the packages are available for both the server and desktop versions. only difference is what's on the CD | 17:13 |
| chazco | I've already tried to fix the Hardy clocksource issue, but its still quite slow to boot | 17:13 |
| danhs | but sometimes, the monitor goes blank when I get to the login screen, and for my entire session | 17:13 |
| wols_ | lakitu: yes. install a norma desktop ubuntu and then install apache2. instant webserver | 17:13 |
| danhs | laptop monitor is the only one working | 17:13 |
| lakitu | wols: great | 17:13 |
| danhs | seems strange to me that it'd work for boot up but not when I get to login screen | 17:14 |
| danhs | also works when I do shutdown and ubuntu logo and progress bar come back again | 17:14 |
| zetheroo | what app is good for resizing video? | 17:14 |
| lakitu | wols: so i don't need ubuntu server to run a http server? | 17:14 |
| wols_ | no you don't | 17:14 |
| nixnoob_ | zetheroo: avidemux | 17:14 |
| lakitu | ok | 17:14 |
| danhs | lakitu: sudo apt-get install apache2 | 17:14 |
| lakitu | thank you, you three | 17:14 |
| lakitu | four ;) | 17:14 |
| G-Mod | danhs... try backing down your video resolution | 17:14 |
| fde | lakitu: you maybe would like to check out 'rapache' for an easy way to setup and configure apache also... | 17:15 |
| zetheroo | nixnoob: can I use it to resize the actual size of the video picture as well as the size of the file? | 17:15 |
| Pinas_ | somone any idea whats wrong with my computer ?? | 17:15 |
| kenkku | lakitu: the server cd just has different packages. you can download them all from the internet | 17:15 |
| danhs | G-Mod: what do you mean, "backing down" | 17:15 |
| nixnoob_ | zetheroo: yes | 17:15 |
| soundray | Pinas_: the problem sits at the keyboard. Safe diagnosis in the majority of cases ;) | 17:16 |
| bazhang | Pinas_, what is bunjee | 17:16 |
| danhs | G-Mod: do you mean System --> Preferences --> Screen resolution ? | 17:16 |
| Pinas_ | oh Banshee | 17:16 |
| danhs | When I play with that, and then do a shutdown, restart it seems to sometimes fix it, but sometimes not | 17:16 |
| omar_ | lordleemo: Thanks a lot, now it needs another module named: "tempita" | 17:16 |
| abchirk | can I unpack with tar in a special dir? | 17:16 |
| zetheroo | nixnoob: there are two versions in Add/Remove .... gtk+ and qt .... which one is good? | 17:16 |
| danhs | it's a crapshoot whether external monitor will work on restart or not | 17:16 |
| Hybrid | My GRUB wont find my vista is there any simple solution to this problem? | 17:16 |
| danhs | seems very odd to me | 17:16 |
| G-Mod | danhs- when the ubuntu screen appears you have an option at the bottom of the screen (F4 I believe) press it and select a lower resolution | 17:16 |
| nixnoob_ | zetheroo: depends on what DE you are using.. gnome or KDE, if gnome then gtk if KDE then qt | 17:17 |
| danhs | G-Mod: but it's very odd that sometimes monitor boots and works perfectly and sometimes it doesn't work at all | 17:17 |
| Pinas_ | soundray i think that you a right, but i really dont know whats wrong. I start Banshee Musik Player an everything works fine. I Close Banshee and start it again and nothing works any more | 17:17 |
| fde | zetheroo: -qt for kde/kubuntu -gtk for gnome/ubuntu | 17:17 |

| zetheroo | nixnoob: oh ok ... I am using Ubuntu | 17:17 |
| Teisei | Doesn't ndiswrapper help ? | 17:17 |
| nixnoob_ | zetheroo: then gtk :) | 17:18 |
| zetheroo | nixnoob: fantastic ... installing now | 17:18 |
| nixnoob_ | Teisei: I linked him and told him to install ndisgtk but he is stil having poblem. | 17:18 |
| G-Mod | danhs: may be a monitor problem then | 17:18 |

| CShadowRun | how to i burn a img file in ubuntu to cd? | 17:48 |
| bastid_raZor | RequinB4; no, but sure makes a good chance for corrupted data | 17:48 |
| scribawf | CD-R/RW not recognized how do I fix, Please!? | 17:48 |
| soundray | CShadowRun: is it an iso image? | 17:49 |
| velvithammer | bin cue | 17:49 |
| bazhang | phildbole, did you get the iso yet? | 17:49 |
| gregge | CShadowRun: use brasero | 17:49 |
| pomtidom | double click, the rest should go automagically if it's an iso | 17:49 |
| CShadowRun | soundf_ no, it's a .img file | 17:49 |
| soundf_ | ? | 17:49 |
| unop | Jakal, your xinitrc might be constructed differrently -- the point is to have the line echo ":1" > /path/to/your_file somewhere after the command that launches your X app/session. | 17:49 |
| phildbole | got it but not familiar with md5bazhang - been looking it up | 17:49 |
| RequinB4 | bastid_raZor: Ok, i can deal with that (Just wanted to to double check i won't have some angry people knocking down the door) | 17:49 |
| CShadowRun | soundf_ sorry i meant soundray | 17:49 |
| bazhang | phildbole, let me get you a bot link | 17:49 |
| bazhang | !md5 | phildbole | 17:49 |
| ubottu | phildbole: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 17:49 |
| CShadowRun | gregge brasero does not burn the .img file | 17:50 |
| bastid_raZor | CShadowRun; i tend to use k3b which is a kd3 app but it works well | 17:50 |
| CShadowRun | it says its an invalid image. | 17:50 |
| RequinB4 | Cshadowrun | 17:50 |
| soundray | CShadowRun: can you run 'file file.img' on it and see what it says | 17:50 |
| phildbole | bazhang - groovy thnks | 17:50 |
| bazhang | phildbole, you can use isorecorder2 or nero for windows to burn it | 17:50 |
| RequinB4 | why do you have a .img file and not an ISO | 17:50 |
| gregge | CShadowRun: then it probably is an invalid image too. Maybe it's broken | 17:50 |
| bazhang | phildbole, once that is done insert the cd and boot up; be sure to set in bios to look for cd first | 17:50 |
| CShadowRun | soundray it says it's data | 17:51 |
| nixnoob_ | anyone know how to turn off join/part messages in irssi? is it even possible? | 17:51 |
| phildbole | bazhang - is isorecorder for ubuntu | 17:51 |
| CShadowRun | gregge not a broken image, i loaded i checked it. | 17:51 |
| bazhang | phildbole, thought you were using windows | 17:51 |
| soundray | CShadowRun: how did you load and check? | 17:51 |
| bazhang | phildbole, for ubuntu just right click open with cd/dvd creator | 17:51 |
| CShadowRun | soundray pointed pcsx at it. | 17:51 |

| rabby | hello | 17:53 |
| phildbole | aska me to write to disk but for options i only have file system...even then nothing happens | 17:53 |
| phildbole | 7.1 i guess | 17:53 |
| rabby | after dist upgrade there is a eth1 disturbing my eth0 configartion or route table :-( | 17:53 |
| rabby | i use a static ipconfig: http://nopaste.info/2062393f80.html | 17:53 |
| bazhang | phildbole, right click on iso open with cd/dvd creator does not bring up a write window? | 17:54 |
| rabby | and ifconfig and route -n look like http://nopaste.info/fc8539dc76.html | 17:54 |
| cygoku | seahorse nautilus module shutdown" ... What is that ?? | 17:54 |
| velvithammer | oh no | 17:54 |
| chase_ | soundray: ok I have the partimage done now can you help me with gparted? | 17:54 |
| RandyboY | Is aMSN supposed to be with no sound? Installed aMSN cause i liked the design. But it seems to be without any sound... No other programs is without sound. So i guess my soundcard/setting is working | 17:54 |
| rabby | the route is wrong. it should be 192.168.1.103 (eth0) and not the other device. eth1 is not even connected with any lan cable! | 17:54 |
| smev81 | i have a delicate problem: i want to grub a windowsxp on a logical partition. Any clues? | 17:55 |
| phildbole | negative...sorry to have mislead you...ive been exploring ubunto on this macine...hate windows. but ignorant to most linux jargon | 17:55 |
| CShadowRun | velvithammer that method appears to corrupt the image. | 17:55 |
| velvithammer | sorry | 17:55 |
| rabby | can You tell me, please, how to change the route constantly to do roght work like it did before dist upgrade? | 17:55 |
| phildbole | im self thought little by little | 17:55 |
| CShadowRun | velvithammer lol its ok i have it backed up, just saying it didn't work :( | 17:56 |
| cygoku | When I launch Nautilus as user or root, I always get this error message, why ?? "" WARNING **: Unable to add monitor: Operation not supported "" | 17:56 |
| unop | rabby, what does /etc/network/interfaces look like? can you pastebin that too? | 17:56 |
| bazhang | phildbole, you have 7.10 currently installed? | 17:56 |
| chase_ | what filesystem does windows XP use? | 17:56 |
| pwizard88 | Hi, I have a few files on my NTFS partition, which have been marked hidden using windows. Can I remove this hidden attribute using any windows command? | 17:56 |

| Aval0n | so what is the current project name for what beryl was | 17:57 |
| Aval0n | compiz-fusion? | 17:57 |
| bazhang | phildbole, insert a blank cd then right click on the iso file | 17:57 |

| pomtidom | since I upgraded to the latest LTS ubuntu, everything at the login screen is way to big; if i open the menu, only a few words fit on my screen. As if my resolution was very low (some other things look normal though). Does anyone know why that is, and how I can fix it? | 17:58 |
| linxeh | HeartLinux: http://www.transgaming.com/support/ - they will know more about their fork of wine | 17:58 |

| lovok | I have Ubuntu on one hdd, and I would like to install a second copy on the same hdd | 18:12 |
| bazhang | opteek, you have the drivers set ? | 18:12 |
| nixnoob_ | Deepthought: theres nothing in the GUI configuration that allows you to turn those messages off? | 18:12 |
| phildbole | This is by far the most difficult ive delt with so far...no hope of figuring it out on my own yo know | 18:12 |
| DaveG| | hey, how do i upgrade to the alpha version of 8.10 in console? | 18:12 |
| Bruners | Gnea: thanks :) | 18:12 |
| Gnea | opteek: have you checked their printing configuration and made sure they're sending to the proper default printer set at system->administration->printing ? | 18:12 |
| LogicalDash | lovok, probably the easiest thing would be to boot from your install disc, run the partition editor, shrink your existing partition and do a new install into the empty space | 18:12 |
| opteek | bazhang, Yes, I have LDP drivers with a cups wrapper, such that I can print a test page and printing w/ firefox works fine | 18:12 |
| bazhang | phildbole, any reason not to update via the net? | 18:12 |
| Gnea | Bruners: cheese | 18:12 |
| Gnea | Bruners: cheers! | 18:13 |
| bazhang | opteek, what does not work? ie what app | 18:13 |
| nixnoob_ | Deepthought: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=417131 says it works. | 18:13 |
| Gnea | the lag from this massive update is.... blah | 18:13 |
| opteek | bazhang, Document viewer is the one I am concerned with at the moment | 18:13 |
| lovok | LogicalDash, would I loose and information? | 18:13 |
| LogicalDash | lovok, probably not, but best to back up just in case | 18:13 |
| opteek | bazhang, evince, specifically | 18:13 |
| bazhang | opteek, for pdfs? | 18:13 |
| maybeway36 | DaveDJ: probably change sources.list then "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 18:13 |
| opteek | bazhang, yes | 18:13 |
| nixnoob_ | I'm out to lunch | 18:13 |
| lovok | LogicalDash, thanks for the leads, I'll give it a try | 18:13 |
| LogicalDash | lovok, you're welcome! | 18:13 |
| Deepthought | nixnoob_, nope, that' s why I' m asking, there' s not a whole lotta options in thre, but since it' s such a hardheaded nix-app I figured there might be some extra' s in a conf file or something; anyway, the /ignore joins works fine, tried /ignore parts just now and it seems to work ! | 18:14 |
| Kohlrak | does anyone know i can disable an account from getting root access through sudo? | 18:14 |
| opteek | Gnea, yes, I have one printer set up and it is set as the default printer | 18:14 |
| linxeh | Kohlrak: visudo | 18:14 |
| Kohlrak | thank you | 18:14 |
| linxeh | Kohlrak: its essentially a change in /etc/sudoers - but use visudo to change it | 18:14 |
| Gnea | opteek: make sure that the output for them is set to letter, not A4 | 18:14 |
| phildbole | yes ive upgraded three times now but every time it gets to the point of configuring the locales it just stops...then my system can not reboot to my desktop...it hangs up after logon | 18:15 |
| maybeway36 | in Debian at least, visudo launches nano | 18:15 |
| alphis | cwillu: does anyone know for sure? how can i tell if the desktop edition supports quad core or not after i install it? | 18:15 |
| maybeway36 | ironicaly | 18:15 |
| phildbole | permenantly!? | 18:15 |
| linxeh | maybeway36: it depends on what your EDITOR env variable is set to | 18:15 |
| opteek | Gnea, it is set to Letter | 18:15 |
| maybeway36 | oh | 18:15 |
| cwillu | alphis, the desktop kernel in 6.06 supported 8 cores, I can't imagine they reduced it | 18:15 |
| DaveG| | maybeway36, and where would i find the other repos? | 18:15 |
| Gnea | alphis: cat /proc/cpuinfo <-- how many CPU's are listed? | 18:15 |
| qr_ | alphis: you can check how many processors show up in top, or in /proc/cpuinfo | 18:15 |
| bazhang | phildbole, was this feisty to gutsy now to hardy that it hung on locales? | 18:15 |
| linxeh | maybeway36: or VISUAL - depends on the platofrm which it uses | 18:15 |
| RequinB4 | Trying to get my usb printer working - It is listed in lsusb, and it can't be found, so i went to the CUPS interface and found the 'location' input is blank. How can I tell what to put in the location bar (actually, just learned it's easier through system - admin - printing) | 18:16 |
| maybeway36 | DaveDJ: change every time of "hardy" to "intrepid" in /etc/apt/sources.list\ | 18:16 |
| linxeh | maybeway36: there is a command to do that properly | 18:16 |
| Gnea | opteek: is your user part of the lpadmin group? | 18:16 |
| Kohlrak | linuxeh: what would i change in there to make account "guest" not have sudo access? Or what line would it be to make "kohlrak" the only one who can sudo? | 18:16 |
| ultrahex | hey | 18:16 |
| Deepthought | wols_, nixnoob_, I take back that ignore thing, it doesn' t work, there were just no leavings and joinings for a while... I do get an info line that doesn' t make much sense | 18:16 |
| DaveG| | maybeway36, ok thanks | 18:16 |
| phildbole | im sorry i have no idea what you said ;-) | 18:16 |
| maybeway36 | linxeh: i don't know it. What is it? | 18:17 |
| alphis | oh ok. thanks a lot guys | 18:17 |
| Deepthought | nixnoob_, wols_ the line does hold some promise however, I just can' t seem to figure the mask thing out | 18:17 |
| qr_ | Kohlrak: you can edit who has sudo rights with the visudo command (make sure you know how to use vi first) | 18:17 |
| phildbole | too meaty you mea ust too much? | 18:17 |
| linxeh | maybeway36: do_release_upgrade I think | 18:17 |
| bazhang | phildbole, was this 7.04 to 7.10 now 8.04 you tried to upgrade from? | 18:17 |
| Kohlrak | thanks | 18:17 |

| Gnea | phildbole: i did one of those this past weekend. are you having issues? | 18:18 |
| bazhang | phildbole, try it from the 14 kernel (choose in grub menu) | 18:18 |
| opteek | Gnea, yes it is | 18:18 |
| Gnea | opteek: and.. there's plenty of ink? | 18:18 |
| opteek | Gnea, yes, I can print a test page without any problems, same thing with firefox | 18:19 |
| phildbole | now this is where the jargon or terminoligy soars above my head....s | 18:19 |

| wishie | i have confirmed with xev, that the left CTLR key is still sending a code, but isnt assigned the keysym Contrl_L | 18:20 |

| phildbole | yes | 18:21 |
| tech404 | Is there a method for displaying binary files as binary? I have found many resources for hex and octal with man hexdump, man od, man dd but I need something that will display in 1's and 0's | 18:21 |
| wishie | where can i see the default keysyms for each key on my keyboard | 18:22 |
| linxeh | enneth: if you plan to have more than 2GB of RAM any time soon it is definitely worth going 64bit, as well as if you want to do a lot of crunching (encoding audio/video etc) | 18:22 |
| bazhang | phildbole, it will let you get into the grub menu, but you have to hit esc quickly (three seconds iirc) | 18:22 |

| danand | mylesmadnes - type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in a terminal. This should ask you a bunch of questions about how you want X to be configured. You can stick to the default (or current) settings for most things. It should however ask you what resolution you want X to use. Set that to what ever you want. Be warned however - if you mess up you can screw up your X config... but unlikely you'd be that silly :) | 18:40 |

| danand | mylesmadnes - ATI?? | 18:41 |
| arthur_ | good | 18:41 |
| CShadowRun | Still stuck with my img file i'm trying to burn, it is most definatly a valid image. I've tried k3b, brasero, and ccd2iso. All 3 failed. Any more suggestions? | 18:41 |
| HeartLinux | goddamnit I can't get WoW to run with Cedega | 18:41 |
| HeartLinux | could someone help me? I am pretty darn desperate | 18:42 |
| danand | arthur_ - probably not... | 18:42 |
| CShadowRun | Preferably something that converts it to an iso so i can test it first. | 18:42 |
| DozedOnLinux | arthur_ just because the port is open doesnt mean they are doing that . run packet sniffer if you are in doubt | 18:42 |
| bazhang | HeartLinux, that is not an ubuntu issue; also no cursing here | 18:42 |
| mizipzor | i tried to compile a program from source but it says zlib.h is not found, so i guess that library isnt installed, i installed the package zlibc... but still the same error, what must i do? (its a c++ program btw, compiled with g++) | 18:42 |
| arthur_ | it just shows up as a blocked connection on firestarter | 18:42 |
| danand | CShadowRun - type "file image_name" to see what kind of image file you havew | 18:43 |
| magnetron | jonah, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu_OEM_Installer_Overview | 18:43 |
| bazhang | HeartLinux, cedega is payware and thus has support forums etc. check those. | 18:43 |
| arthur_ | is packet sniffer installed by default | 18:43 |
| jonah | magnetron, thanks man | 18:43 |
| arthur_ | or do i have to apt-get install something? | 18:43 |
| magnetron | arthur_, no, but it is VERY easy to install it in ubuntu | 18:43 |
| CShadowRun | danand data | 18:43 |
| HeartLinux | bazhang I know it's not related to this but maybe someone could help me :) | 18:43 |
| danand | CShadowRun - hmmm :) | 18:44 |
| bazhang | HeartLinux, offtopic here so please stop. | 18:44 |
| magnetron | arthur_, tcpdump and wireshark are the most famous packet sniffers | 18:44 |
| CShadowRun | danand i know it's valid because it's an image of a playstation game, and pcsx (playstation emulator) can read it. | 18:44 |
| CShadowRun | but whatever i use to try and burn it, fails :( | 18:44 |
| DozedOnLinux | arthur_ search SPM for "sniffer" you should get the two mentioned )tcpdump and wireshark) | 18:44 |
| danand | CShadowRun - how did you create the image?? | 18:45 |
| CShadowRun | danand i didn't :p | 18:45 |
| ga-ma | hi all anyone anderstand german or polish? | 18:45 |
| RequinB4 | my printer was detected but how do i figure out the location: !printing is no help, it just tells me to put in the location | 18:45 |
| Fishscene | CShadowrun, I imagine that's because of copy-protection. A bit of corrupted data that can't be burned.. | 18:45 |
| bazhang | ga-ma, which do you prefer | 18:45 |
| arthur_ | how do i start tcpdump . its already installed? | 18:45 |
| Fishscene | Unless there's some kind of "raw" burning mode | 18:45 |
| CShadowRun | Fishscene but it works fine in the emulator | 18:46 |
| danand | CShadowRun - bah :) ... not sure how to proceed with that one then.. | 18:46 |
| CShadowRun | danand :( | 18:46 |
| geirha | ga-ma: #ubuntu-de for german, #ubuntu-pl for polish. | 18:46 |
| Fishscene | CShadowRun. Correct. But your operating system and CD drive don't like to burn corrupted data. (Built-in protections against burn failures). So for you to burn, I would think you would need a way to bypass those built-in protections. | 18:47 |
| bazhang | CShadowRun, this is a pirated image? | 18:47 |
| arthur_ | or is wireshark the frontend? | 18:47 |
| Kasle | does anyone know how to sniff network? | 18:47 |
| CShadowRun | bazhang sorta, i have the original version of the game, but it died. | 18:47 |
| DozedOnLinux | arthur_ in terminal window type this for manual > man tcpdump | 18:47 |
| CShadowRun | so i downloaded a replacement. | 18:47 |
| danand | CShadowRun - you could try mounting the image using the loopback device... but not sure that would help you out with burning it to CD.... | 18:47 |
| Muhammad_Saad | Hi, I want to install Ubuntu on my flash drive and I have read the tutorial at http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/08/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-via-the-live-cd/ . Can someone tell me whether I can use ext2 file system on both partitions or not? Will it cause any problem if I use ext2 on first partition instead of fat16? | 18:47 |
| mylesmadnes | danand, I ran the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and it never asked me for a screen resolution | 18:48 |
| DozedOnLinux | arthur_ that will give you a list of commands and how you can use it, even then, wireshark may be easier to look at for new users. | 18:48 |

| qr | billybigrigger: it depends what you want to do, if you want a remote desktop use vnc, if you just want to run a few graphical programs then X over ssh is easier IMO | 19:07 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, forward vnc port and run vnc-client locally with ssh -X -C -L 5900:localhost:5900 | 19:07 |
| Vi5in | any idea how I can get it to use /dev/sda1? | 19:07 |
| billybigrigger | ssam, im using strictly vnc right now and it seems kind of sluggish even over my lan | 19:07 |
| Teisei | bazhang: There _are_ other channels on IRC | 19:07 |
| padlefopt | listen, i cant get security.ubuntu.com to update with apt.. is it just me? | 19:08 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, or maybe port 5901, depending how vncserver is run | 19:08 |
| ssam | billybigrigger, vnc seems to handle high latancy better than x forwarding | 19:08 |
| TiredWolf | Vi5in, it's not a Kubuntu-specific problem, so there is no problem at all asking here (nor there is in general, for that matter). | 19:08 |

| anto9us | billybigrigger, forward vnc port and run vnc-client locally with ssh -X -C -L 5901:localhost:5901, open a new terminal window on your local machine and connect vnc to localhost:5901 | 19:09 |
| TiredWolf | Vi5in: i've never used foremost. does it actually require the use of "<"? can't it just take the device name as a parameter? if not, try: sudo sh -c "foremost ... < ..." | 19:09 |

| bazhang | hyw, what is the issue | 19:09 |

| Moose1981 | HI everyone | 19:12 |
| nemo | under ubuntu hardy, I get a hiss of static, which I blame on esd | 19:12 |
| hyw | bazhang: also this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=683661 | 19:12 |
| TiredWolf | Vi5in, in any case, if the hard drive is physically damaged, you *really* should take an image of it and then never touch the actual drive | 19:12 |
| Vi5in | TiredWolf: well.. it seems to be running now. if you don't supply foremost any arguments, it just takes data from stdin | 19:12 |
| bazhang | hyw, seems that some others do in fact support it; checking on ubuntu now | 19:12 |
| MrCraig | hi bobertdos :-) Well if you could tell me how to do a disk check on my data drive /sdc1 would be helpful - I try fschk from the command line but can't find the tool | 19:12 |
| Moose1981 | New to Ubuntu and IRC,, go me | 19:12 |
| Vi5in | TiredWolf: Oh, the drive isn't damaged. It's just that I accidentally deleted a bunch of crap off it. | 19:13 |
| nemo | who triggered ubottu, 'cause medibuntu does not seem useful to this | 19:13 |
| TiredWolf | Vi5in: alright then. just don't mount it, especially not read/write. | 19:13 |
| Ketsuban | Hi, I have rather a serious problem. Once my system has been up for a day things start going wrong - Firefox refuses to open, Terminal crashes on load. Can I fix this behaviour? | 19:13 |
| hyw | bazhang: its the most popular tv pci card in the world | 19:13 |
| bad_alloc | hi, i've got a rather basic question: how do i connect to a server that isnt in my server list (xchat) | 19:13 |
| nemo | I'm trying to find information on esound possibly playing an ordinary 16bit wav as static | 19:13 |
| qr | bad_alloc: /server theserveraddress should work | 19:14 |
| nemo | here is the firefox code: | 19:14 |
| nemo | http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/widget/src/gtk2/nsSound.cpp | 19:14 |
| Vi5in | TiredWolf: yup, that's why I put in the livecd as soon as i could. it's mainly pictures taht I'm looking for. i hope most of them have survived | 19:14 |
| xdcx | having some trouble with wireless here (not really a surprise). i have the ipw2200 drivers installed (comes with hardy, right?) but i see nothing in iwconfig | 19:14 |
| Yamaneko | does someone know how to play .rmvb? what i have to do? (for gutsy ribbon) | 19:14 |
| xdcx | lol, ribbon | 19:14 |
| Vi5in | heh ribbon :p | 19:14 |
| bazhang | hyw which version? 2.7 or other | 19:14 |
| bobertdos | MrCraig: The best way to force a check is on bootup. This is accomplished by typing: sudo tune2fs -c 2 -C 1 /dev/sdc1 into the terminal and rebooting. | 19:14 |
| Vi5in | TiredWolf: thanks for the help once again! | 19:15 |
| dEagLE | i have connected my webcam but i'm unable to view it | 19:15 |
| MrCraig | thanks bob | 19:15 |
| arooni | with compiz fusion + screenlets, nearly 1GB of memory is used on ubuntu hardy (geforce fx 7950). questions: (1) when my available memory is < 100MB and no swap is being used, things start *crawling* and it seems like the system might lock up... is this normal? (2) is there a way to have compiz-fusion take up less than about 1G of memory but still have screenlets? thanks! | 19:15 |

| ubottu | Yamaneko: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 19:15 |
| HelgeS | Is it easy to download a package in source format, and then compile it myself? Perhaps with a *.deb as the result? Where can I learn how to do it? | 19:15 |

Once my system has been up for a day things start going wrong - Firefox refuses to open, Terminal crashes on load. X-Chat is the only program I have open, and if I close it I will lose the ability to use it completely. Can I fix this behaviour? | 19:17 |

| anto9us | Ketsuban, my first guess would be a hardware fault causing the problem, maybe overheating, is the processor fan working ok? | 19:19 |

| jazzkutya | Ketsuban: keep a terminal open and wait until this happens again, then start another terminal or any other app from the already open terminal. this way you will see the error message | 19:20 |
| phantomas | when i open my tvtime it shows no signal... my tv card is AVerMedia AverTV Hybrid+FM PCI A16AR please help me | 19:21 |

| phantomas | backuup: i am trying to make my card work ... i already have the name | 19:21 |
| Ketsuban | jazzkutya: The problem is it's not something which just goes away. I'm currently in it, and I'd really like to deal with it so I don't have to reboot all the time. If it went away of its own accord I'd happily do that. | 19:21 |

| jazzkutya | Ketsuban: maybe you can try this already from x-chat: /exec gnome-terminal or something | 19:22 |
| anto9us | backuup, it should be automatic, you can see what's detected after connection if you type dmesg | 19:22 |

| Ketsuban | jazzkutya: No error message AFAICT from using /exec. | 19:22 |

| Moose1981 | Alright, I have a question, when running some programs and my webcam it flickers badly, any reason for this? | 19:24 |
| anto9us | phantomas, is that card a dvb card and are you sure tvtime supports dvb? | 19:24 |
| jazzkutya | Ketsuban: otherwise my only advice is reboot and keep a terminal open for next time it happens | 19:24 |
| phantomas | anto9us: it is analogue dvb and fm radio | 19:24 |
| Ketsuban | jazzkutya: xterm works. | 19:24 |
| jazzkutya | Ketsuban: okay try start gnome-terminal | 19:24 |
| phantomas | anto9us: but nothing works | 19:25 |
| backuup | phantomas have you seen this http://mcentral.de/wiki/index.php5/Main_Page I'm not good w/ tv cards, but the linuxtv.org site helps! | 19:25 |

| nemo | oh. unrelated error. I can play the wav just fine with mplayer -ao esd - I just need to be playing it as a user in audio group (oops) | 19:26 |
| nemo | hm. so back to why firefox is failing. | 19:26 |
| Ahadiel | nixnoob_, Yes it is possible. sudo apt-get install scrot, then from the ssh connection do: DISPLAY=:0.0 scrot | 19:27 |
| nemo | perhaps the wav decoder just sucks | 19:27 |
| phantomas | anto9us: i ve seen that | 19:27 |

| Gnea | xdcx: who made the card? is there a model number? what sort of interface does it use to connect to the computer? what is the interface name that shows up in ip l? what driver is it using? what driver should it be using? | 19:36 |
| tazz | Pici, are you sure its the entire hardy repository? because its just 3.7 gb | 19:37 |
| xdcx | it's an intel 2915abg, internal pci (laptop), nothing shows up for it in ip l, it's using ipw2200, ipw2200 | 19:37 |
| Greenbear | is it possible that i can make my own translation for ubuntu? | 19:37 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Greenbear Yes it could be possible. But this is the wrong place for information about HOW to do it | 19:38 |
| remoteCTRL | linkmaster03: nope i wouldnt do that, i suggest you primarily dont install things that are not in the repos cos that can go very wrong... | 19:38 |
| xdcx | gnea: lenovo 3000 c100 | 19:38 |
| Greenbear | ohh...., | 19:38 |
| Pici | tazz: No, its not the entire repositories. I don't believe there is an easily downloadable file of every file in the repos. | 19:39 |
| Greenbear | where is the right place then jack_sparrow? | 19:39 |
| remoteCTRL | linkmaster03: second you gotta have another binary that is called something similar, just change the line in the launcher accordingly | 19:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Greenbear That is for you to research and decide for yourself. | 19:39 |
| remoteCTRL | can anyone tell me why i cant choose mp3 codec in sound-juicers properties? | 19:39 |
| Greenbear | :\ | 19:39 |
| linkmaster03 | remoteCTRL: lol, there is totally absolutely nothing wrong from compiling programs outside of the repo. i found that editra was saving to /usr/bin/Editra and /usr/bin/editra was the old version | 19:39 |
| remoteCTRL | its there but i cant pick it | 19:39 |

| Hans-Martin | remoteCTRL: I'm basically looking for someone who knows how this can be done (preferrably using the package tools) | 19:42 |
| remoteCTRL | Hans-Martin: i can tell you this much: i didn#t get it to run cos the xen kernel allways gets kernel panik so i chose debian etch for that purpose | 19:43 |
| Hans-Martin | remoteCTRL: did you try with hardy or with an earlier version? | 19:43 |
| remoteCTRL | Hans-Martin: you can try installing an older kernel or have a try with the generic version | 19:44 |
| hyw | bazhang: any luck | 19:44 |
| remoteCTRL | nope with hardy | 19:44 |
| mneptok | Hans-Martin: what are you trying to achieve? | 19:44 |

| remoteCTRL | Hans-Martin: but i can assure you that i had it running with debian etch in like 5 minutes, its really easy, especially considering that xm tools install a host via debootstrap in less then 5 mionutes | 19:45 |
| mneptok | Hans-Martin: stay away from Xen | 19:45 |
| mneptok | Hans-Martin: you want KVM or Virtualbox | 19:45 |

| remoteCTRL | nownot: you said you cant connect to it with your iphoen, so? | 20:58 |
| remoteCTRL | nownot: so why cant you? | 20:59 |
| TiredWolf | random-guy: are they so many? there is the one with gnome and the one with kde, which seems reasonable given they're the two dominant desktops. then there's the server edition, which i'm sure many people appreciate. then sure there are a couple specialized flavors, but. | 20:59 |
| nownot | remoteCTRL: exactly, vpn uses cert files, you cant do those on the iphone | 20:59 |
| nownot | remoteCTRL: has to be pptp or ipsec with login / password | 20:59 |
| debian_akroyd | random-guy, some people who want certain desktop environments or who have old computers, or who have hand held compuers can choose from what variation they want. it just makes it easier for those who want ubuntu to work right out of the box or who are new to linux | 20:59 |
| remoteCTRL | nownot: that you meant, gimme a sec | 20:59 |

| Gnea | i've used ushare and it works, and it's supported in ubuntu. | 21:12 |
| debian_akroyd | Gnea, are you on twonkyvision.de? | 21:12 |
| cupantae | eax: try a different distro, maybe? :P Seriously, though, if it's not working for you, you could compile it | 21:12 |
| nownot | remoteCTRL: manual keys no help. and yes im aware, but i dont know what port the game runs on so it would be easiest to just to get a vpn going so all traffic is there | 21:12 |

| servant74 | are there driver somewhere that might help? | 21:12 |
| Gnea | debian_akroyd: less hassle with ushare, it just works. | 21:13 |
| eax | cupantae: They won't work either :/ And compiling has some dependencies that aren't in Feisty (Like libgnome-2.0) The reason I can't move to another distro is that they use the same kernel version that won't work for me :/ | 21:13 |
| stumpy | remoteCTRL: i have some proposed updates installed. i have unticked proposed updates. i want to downgrade all my proposed packages | 21:13 |
| debian_akroyd | well twonky isnt open source | 21:14 |

| stumpy | remoteCTRL: i can not work out to list all the proposed packages. i know i can use "force version" but i need to do that to each package in turn. | 21:14 |
| Gnea | debian_akroyd: it's sort of like the whole nvidia driver issue - you don't use the install script version from their site, you use the .deb | 21:14 |
| robf | what would I need to remove that are inherent to ubuntu desktop pkgs | 21:14 |

| cupantae | eax: right. That's quite a pickle you're in. Sorry, I was just looking up some stuff there. The dependencies that aren't in feisty....do they trace back to a dependency on the kernel that doesn't work for you? | 21:16 |

| remoteCTRL | stumpy: google for apt-pinning that has a possibility to set the "weight" of the downloaded packages in a way that it even dowwngrades packages if the version in the repos is older than the installed one | 21:19 |

| falstaff | Is there a way to "overwrite" an applications shortcut? I cant do it in the application | 21:53 |
| efes27 | no | 21:53 |
| Slart | lakitu: the boot loader have to be installed on one of the hard drives.. the mbr.. I think you can select which hard drive it selects | 21:53 |
| alpinestr | and it also plays choppy | 21:53 |
| channeling | aLeSD_, you want to burn the CD Ubuntu image to a DVD, right? | 21:53 |
| efes27 | ı install to cd | 21:53 |
| lakitu | Folk_Theory & Slart: what's the diff? is this which OS it loads by default? | 21:53 |
| efes27 | ı am not working windows | 21:54 |
| pjvandehaar | how are you guys on here? i can't figure out how to get on irc without "Konverstaion". sorry, i know im a noob. | 21:54 |
| Folk_Theory | no its the OS loader. if you install windows itll delete it. so you usse that to reinstall it | 21:54 |

| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 22:03 |
| lakitu | jason101: you probably downloaded a virus. i would do a system restore, virus scan, & unplug from the net until you have completed the virus scan. | 22:03 |
| DozedOnLinux | users can refer to RAM as memory or something that is stored on their computer in memory or some other such device. its the same as calling their machine a "box", "ram", or "memory" , ... | 22:04 |
| Stormx2 | jason101: Please stop saying you downloaded RAM. Are you even using ubuntu? | 22:04 |
| ross | i currently using ubuntu and windows, i realize that when i access the same websites, different messages come up | 22:04 |

| * Slart wonders if he's still in #ubuntu | 22:04 | |
| PinguinDude | Jack_Sparrow, well I didn't change the sources list. That is the problem. I used apt-get install gtk2-themes I think | 22:04 |
| jason101 | What is ubtu | 22:04 |
| jason101 | ? | 22:04 |
| ross | for example, ubuntu security measures has the power to detect websites that are under attack | 22:04 |
| mrpull | compressed memory... silly program | 22:04 |
| PinguinDude | and suddenly all hell brakes loose and programs can't boot anymore, giving me that libstdC++ error | 22:04 |
| lakitu | jason101: join #windows | 22:04 |
| Slart | OzFalcon: there are some utilities.. paman, padevchooser, pavucontrol | 22:04 |
| Stormx2 | jason101, I don't know. Who said anything about ubtu? | 22:04 |
| ikonia | ross: no OS has that ability out of the box | 22:04 |
| RequinB4 | jason101: www.ubuntu.com :) | 22:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | PinguinDude Use the pastebin and post your sources.list for us | 22:04 |
| joaopinto | ross, that's a firefox feature :) | 22:05 |
| ross | ok | 22:05 |
| ross | well it's strange | 22:05 |
| ross | because i have installed the same version of mozilla on both OSes | 22:05 |
| PinguinDude | Jack_Sparrow, are you sure that has to do with it ? ( It seems like a different issue to me, but sure I'll post it. ) | 22:05 |
| OzFalcon | Slart, Hi Slart. Yes. Ihave installed paman padevchooser, pa volume contrl but they don't let me "Select" the source. | 22:05 |
| ross | and only when i'm in ubuntu, my firefox can detect the site that's under attacked!!! | 22:05 |
| ross | so my question is, since now that i know what sites are under attacked, what should i know about them? | 22:06 |
| ross | should i take my chances and visit those sites or stay away from them? | 22:06 |
| OzFalcon | Slart, (tybartfast?) Have you tried these utils? | 22:06 |
| ikonia | ross: thats your choice to follow firefox's opinion or not | 22:06 |
| Slart | OzFalcon: in pavucontrol, right click on an input device and select it as default.. | 22:06 |
| Stormx2 | ross, what kind of attack are we talking? DDoS? | 22:06 |
| carcotasu | NetworkManager: nm_device_is_802_11_wireless: assertion `dev != NULL' failed what that means/ | 22:06 |
| PinguinDude | Jack_Sparrow http://pastebin.com/m71ec4f3c | 22:06 |
| joaopinto | ross, again, the website security detection is not a ubuntu specific feature, it's a firefox function | 22:07 |
| EdAndEin | Hello, I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 on my laptop and It seams to be continuously accessing the HDD and going slow, I am using 70% of my memory 512 | 22:07 |
| SlimG | How do I detect (CLI) the audio and/or video codec info within a .ogg file? | 22:07 |
| EdAndEin | any ideas how to speed things up? | 22:07 |
| Slart | OzFalcon: (yes.. one uncreative weekend 15 years ago, it still haunts me today=), I use them.. but I haven't tried them with any inputs yet.. skype is the only audio conferencing tool I use and it doesn't use pulseaudio | 22:07 |
| Stormx2 | EdAndEin, 70% of 512MiB memory wouldn't be unusual. | 22:07 |
| Gnea | EdAndEin: you should see if there are any processes that are eating up resources | 22:07 |
| EdAndEin | try useing mplayer | 22:07 |
| ross | stormx2: i don't know what kind of attack, but you can check out the sites yourself. ex. www.teamfleet.com | 22:07 |
| OzFalcon | Slart, Make no change. When I open Gnome-sound-recorder - input opens on the wrong source (checking by PA manager/devices) | 22:08 |
| jprosvi | /server irc.freenode.net | 22:08 |
| ross | why doesn't the security feature work in pc? | 22:08 |
| EdAndEin | Gnea: The most is firfox | 22:08 |
| Slart | OzFalcon: ok, let me check.. gnome-sound-recorder.. I'll give it a try | 22:08 |
| ikonia | jprosvi: your already on that server | 22:08 |
| EdAndEin | Stormx2: I need more ram :( | 22:08 |
| DozedOnLinux | EdAndEin: if you have 512mb of ram and you are using most of it, buy more ram (of the same type and speed) or you can use "lightweight" applications in replacement of the more demanding applications, there is a few ways to go | 22:08 |
| meoblast001 | i need more ram =P | 22:08 |
| Gnea | EdAndEin: you should probably upgrade to 8.04 then and use firefox 3.0.1 | 22:08 |
| Gnea | !upgrade | EdAndEin | 22:08 |
| OzFalcon | Slart, Yes. I use skype as well. And it works fine (Exept the gspca cam driver that needs to be patched) | 22:09 |
| s1_ | hello | 22:09 |
| ubottu | EdAndEin: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 22:09 |
| Slart | OzFalcon: yes, it works.. but it doesn't use pulseaudio.. it just uses alsa | 22:09 |
| ross | what should i know (and I mean precautions to take) about attack sites? | 22:09 |
| joaopinto | ross, just don't visit them | 22:09 |
| s1_ | can I do something about the size of the windows, theyre so big & bulky and I dont mean resize them.. is there a preference I can set for smaller windows ? | 22:10 |
| ross | joaopinto: there are no ways to secure my visit? | 22:10 |
| Gnea | EdAndEin: my laptop has the same amount of memory - when i upgraded it the other day, i noticed the system was running smoother, especially when firefox 3 was on | 22:10 |
| OzFalcon | Slart, You have to change gnome-sound-properties and select Pulse audio(s). | 22:10 |
| EdAndEin | Gnea: I liked the version before 7.10 it seams better even though thugh 7.10 has the drive support, is 8.04 much better, I might go back to the one before 7.10 | 22:10 |
| ross | joaopinto: check out www.teamfleet.com | 22:10 |
| DozedOnLinux | ross: in Firefox , there is an Add-On called something of sort Block-Site, you can add offending sites there, and firefox wont access them no longer till you remove them from the "blacklist" | 22:10 |
| EdAndEin | I just downloaded FF3 | 22:10 |
| ross | joaopinto: and tell me that you get the same message that i get | 22:10 |
| joaopinto | ross, this is not a general internet security help channel, please visit google.com and search for general internet security usage guidelines | 22:10 |

| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, Yes. Select recording source as PulseAudio - But how to change PulseAudio source. | 22:21 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: maybe you can look at your volume settings and ensure the input sources are enabled and not muted | 22:21 |
| anirudh0 | adilson, check if speaker is muted under alsamixer | 22:22 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, Done all the standard stuff. But the problem is Pulse is not selecting the correct audio source. | 22:22 |

| joaopinto | newuser, using the partition editor ? | 22:24 |
| blarg | i think | 22:24 |
| anirudh0 | blarg, hope it was'nt /dev/mouse :) | 22:24 |

| adilson | anirudh0: whihc sound am i looking for PC speakers? I ahve already sued that to increase master etc sound but still nothing so only one left is pc speakers but i have external sound? | 22:24 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, Do you know how to configure it (At the device level)? | 22:24 |
| anirudh0 | adilson, i'm never sure myself..i just set everything to 100 percent :) | 22:25 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: you are asking a Hardware question, there is a channel for that #Hardware | 22:25 |
| newuser | joaopinto, how? | 22:25 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, No. Im asking a config question. Not a hardware Q. | 22:25 |
| blarg | im glad it lets you choose your session at startup if it wasnt for this terminal i would be screwed lol | 22:25 |
| peeps[work] | is it possible to use arrow keys while in insert mode in vi? when i try it, it inserts new lines with capital letters on them | 22:25 |
| anirudh0 | newuser, check gparted docs on wiki.ubuntu | 22:25 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: confguring it at device level, maybe even #linux-coders might have something for you | 22:25 |
| blarg | now hopefully i can repair whatever i broke... | 22:25 |
| anirudh0 | peeps[work], install "vim-full" | 22:25 |
| adilson | anirudh0: well masters are done, PCM, CD, Center & pc speakers are done so let me hope but i think the problem is that no sound module is being found | 22:26 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: what type of configuration you speaking of ? | 22:26 |
| joaopinto | newbyx86, Add/Remove gparted | 22:26 |

| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 22:26 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, No. I am configuring PulseAudio to use a specific device. | 22:26 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: and what device might hat be ? | 22:26 |
| adilson | anirudh0: when i installed ubuntu my sound was disabled in bios but i have reactivated so that was the reason why the sound wasnt working but now i have no clue | 22:27 |

| DozedOnLinux | ubottu out to lunch :) | 22:27 |
| catbird | I'm trying to unstall ubunto and am running into some errors. Was hoping to get some help here? | 22:27 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, Ok. This is what happens. I have audio set to use Pulse (Works fine). I open gnome-sound-recorder, And it uses Pulse for input and output (Fine) - What's not fine is it uses the WRONG input from pulse. | 22:28 |
| Infinito- | quit | 22:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flare183 the bot is still finding its way back | 22:28 |
| blarg | How do i reinstall whatever package controlls the mouse? | 22:28 |
| joaopinto | catbird, just describe your errors | 22:28 |
| Flare183 | ok | 22:28 |

| * anirudh0 wonders if mouse is controlled directly by xorg | 22:28 | |
| unop | peeps[work], or. :set term=$TERM | 22:28 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, And so. I want to configure the sound source (input) for Pulse audio. | 22:28 |
| unop | anirudh0, quite obviously | 22:28 |
| blarg | I cant do anything without a mouse - how do i reinstall xorg from terminal? | 22:29 |
| catbird | I try to install from a CD and get "ata1.01: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen" | 22:29 |
| anirudh0 | unop, then perhaps you should help blarg | 22:29 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: one of two things : configure gnome-sound-recorder to use the correct input source, and/or configure from System/Preferences/Sound | 22:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | blarg I usually do this to re-init my mouse sudo modprobe -r psmouse ; sudo modprobe psmouse | 22:29 |
| peeps[work] | anirudh0, would vim-full replace the executable for vi | 22:29 |
| catbird | followed by two other lines... repeat | 22:29 |
| offline__ | if i change my mainboard, do i have to reinstall ubuntu ? | 22:29 |
| anirudh0 | peeps[work], not sure..check for installed files in synaptic..my guess is no | 22:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | offline__ no | 22:29 |
| unop | peeps[work], it enhances the vim that is installed by default | 22:30 |
| anirudh0 | offline__, no | 22:30 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: the "and/or" means you may have to do both, or select something other than pulseaudio. maybe pulseaudio does fine on playback, but not recording. or vice-versa | 22:30 |
| blarg | echo " sudo modprobe -r psmouse ; sudo modprobe psmouse " >> mouse | 22:30 |
| blarg | er sorry | 22:30 |
| zvacet | blarg : sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 22:30 |
| peeps[work] | unop, nocompatible works, thanks | 22:30 |
| offline__ | Jack_sparrow & anirudh0 thanks | 22:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 22:30 |
| peeps[work] | what advantage is vim-full? | 22:30 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, Your skirting around the problem. The Problem is I want to change the PulseAudio "Source". | 22:31 |
| blarg | What was the command to reinstall xorg? | 22:31 |
| newuser | is there a security forum? | 22:31 |
| anirudh0 | peeps[work], well..i use emacs..but vim-full is supposed to iron out some irritations in the default vim-tiny package | 22:31 |
| blarg | sudo modprobe -r psmouse didnt help ;/ | 22:31 |
| peeps[work] | unop, oh, how can i persist that setting? | 22:31 |
| unop | peeps[work], you might want to put :set nocompatible in ~/.vimrc to keep it permanent | 22:31 |
| joaopinto | newuser, Have you checked the ubuntu forums ? | 22:31 |
| peeps[work] | ah | 22:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | blarg sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 22:31 |
| peeps[work] | thanks ;- | 22:31 |
| adilson | anirudh0: when i installed ubuntu my sound was disabled in bios but i have reactivated so that was the reason why the sound wasnt working but now i have no clue | 22:31 |
| adilson | any one can help me with my sound problem plz | 22:31 |
| unop | peeps[work], vim-full is just a transitional package for vim-gnome | 22:31 |
| adilson | any one can help me with my sound problem plz? | 22:31 |
| unop | peeps[work], aka gvim | 22:32 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: i wear no skirt, and i already said i dont play with the settings on my box, as they work just fine. i cant tell you how to best do it, if i havent done it myself. besides, i have no way of knowing if you changed from defaults or not. sorry i cant help you with that issue | 22:32 |
| blarg | k .. brb | 22:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | adilson please hold down the repeats | 22:32 |
| adilson | Jack_Sparrow: just figure i should add a question mark as i had forgotten but yeha no problem | 22:32 |
| peeps[work] | unop, so it wouldn't affect running vi in a terminal? | 22:33 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, NP | 22:33 |
| adilson | Jack_Sparrow: was there an ubuntu-sound-help channel or something close to that? | 22:33 |
| DozedOnLinux | OzFalcon: if i could i would, i can merely suggest on topics i have little experience in. | 22:33 |
| catbird | I'm trying to install ubuntu. When I try to check the cd for errors I get the following line: "ata3.00; revalidation failed (errno=-5)" | 22:33 |

| Jack_Sparrow | adilson /j #alsa | 22:33 |
| OzFalcon | DozedOnLinux, Is ok. I'm reading PulseAudio wiki at the moment to try and pickup any clues. | 22:34 |

| sashimi | would someone be so kind as to tell me what options I have to specify in fstab to mount an EXT3 partition with a specific forced GID ? | 22:39 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: concerning the laptops, are them fresh drives, or did you have to partition them while installing Ubuntu ? | 22:39 |
| anirudh0 | Kaspersky_, did you try everything on the thread?..are you sure about the master and slave? | 22:39 |
| unop | riegersn, hmm. try mounting the volume with pmount -- see if helps. sudo umount /dev/sdXX; pmount /dev/sdXX | 22:39 |
| Kaspersky_ | Not even sure there. | 22:39 |
| Kaspersky_ | ATA Maxtor is the one I'm booting from. | 22:40 |
| unop | sashimi, as far as i can tell, ext3 does not have the UID/GID mount options -- you set permissions normally | 22:40 |

| OzFalcon | adilson, Any progress on your sound problem? | 22:51 |
| sashimi | unop> chown/chgrp with the sticky bit, OK, but on what directory ? | 22:52 |
| unop | shermeco, :-s never paste in here.. use a pastebin instead | 22:52 |
| shermeco | a what | 22:52 |
| unop | sashimi, to the directories you want this behaviour propagated too | 22:52 |
| sashimi | surely not on the mount point, the permissions are overidden, aren't they ? | 22:52 |
| Slart | shermeco: if you're new to linux/ubuntu you really shouldn't install stuff "from some website".. use the software from the repos.. it's tested and works without problems | 22:52 |
| shermeco | how do i do that | 22:52 |
| adilson | OzFalcon: nope they redircted me here, blamed gnome and said to try here alsa mixer picks up card but there is no sound :/, any suggestions which i ahvent tried out yet? | 22:52 |
| FlipFalcon | anirudh0 is there any microsoft onenote type programs | 22:52 |
| DozedOnLinux | use http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ | 22:52 |
| RaverWild | DozedOnLinux: yes - i could without problem boot the backup xp partition and the installed xp partition, i could also boot the linux. in fact everything is functional (i installed text-only ubuntu7 in order to have at least grub installed properly, since it fails on install with others ubuntus). yep -- 2gb for /home and i think they were about 10gb for / - this should be enough i think | 22:53 |
| glitsj16 | shermeco: try installing the mozilla-mplayer package, that has great windows media player plugin support for firefox | 22:53 |
| anirudh0 | FlipFalcon, no idea what ms onenote is | 22:53 |
| shermeco | i have done that | 22:53 |
| shermeco | all ready | 22:53 |
| glitsj16 | shermeco: and remove what you have if you go that route | 22:53 |
| luz3r | Sorry I haven't been talking much with updating my backups. | 22:53 |
| shermeco | just would like to get rid of the terminal | 22:53 |
| anto9us | FlipFalcon, try tomboy | 22:53 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: oh yes, that looks to be plenty. now refresh the initial issue please ? | 22:53 |
| unop | sashimi, you can set it to the mount point too if you want .. if you use chmod in this way. chmod g+s /path/to/mount_point # existing permissions should stay intact, only the setgid bit is set | 22:54 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: you updated and then.... | 22:54 |
| unop | shermeco, disable/remove this plugin. in firefox. Tools > Add ons > Plugins .. | 22:55 |
| anirudh0 | FlipFalcon, if note taking is what you are looking for, then there is an applet for the panel as well | 22:55 |
| shermeco | its not in there i have checked | 22:55 |
| shermeco | i think it installed though wine | 22:55 |
| fritz | decompressing uharc file with wine upgraded, system is hanged a bit now but i don't get any signal from HDD. subfolders of uharc file are made BUT files aren't | 22:55 |
| bluetouff | hi there | 22:55 |
| anirudh0 | shermeco, cant be | 22:55 |
| unop | shermeco, hmm. is it listed when you navigate to about:plugins ? | 22:55 |
| shermeco | no it is not | 22:56 |
| timte | I installed kubuntu-kde4-desktop on ubuntu 8.04 - now when I boot up I get "Error 16: Incompatible filesystem structure" from grub. What can I do about this? | 22:56 |
| adilson | OzFalcon: nope they redircted me here, blamed gnome and said to try here alsa mixer picks up card but there is no sound :/, any suggestions which i ahvent tried out yet? | 22:56 |
| unop | shermeco, not sure what this is then. | 22:56 |
| RaverWild | DozedOnLinux : well first i had ubuntu7 not being updated 2-3 months. i fully updated everything - and it was ok. then upgraded to the latest LTS as was the button in update manager and then it broke. changed the videomode of text tty-s too so i got pissed off and tried fresh install (with partition format) to all linux partitions. then noticed that x/k/ubuntu 8.04.1 plus the interpid versions fails on install "select and install software" step. | 22:56 |
| fritz | has anybody experienced by "wine Uharc.exe"? | 22:57 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: i read up to find you post . you had partial install by the looks of it. sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 22:57 |
| anirudh0 | shermeco, your errors seem like javascript errors.... | 22:57 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: are you seeing any GUI at all or just console prompt ? | 22:57 |
| Flannel | RaverWild: That particular error sounds like a bad burn. Did you verify the integrity of the CD? | 22:57 |
| BeardWand | timte: I'm not an expert, but if I were you, I'd boot up with a live CD and check what happened with your disks | 22:57 |
| RaverWild | DozedOnLinux : noticed that when i select my country (bulgaria), language "english", after it passes the famous percent 6% goes some errors since too fast goes to around 80% and reports error. if i choose USA it goes ok to 85% and fails there | 22:57 |
| shermeco | i download a file from a web site called wmpfirefoxplugin.exe and installed it though wine and the website is working now i just cant get this terminal go to away | 22:58 |
| timte | BeardWand: I did that and I ran fsck on the partition, but it reported no errors | 22:58 |
| anirudh0 | RaverWild, are you connected to the net during install? | 22:58 |
| RaverWild | Flannel man i tried several CDs with x/k/ubuntu installations | 22:58 |
| unop | shermeco, that plugin is not really meant for linux systems -- see if you can uninstall this from within wine | 22:58 |
| sashimi | unop> | 22:58 |
| FlipFalcon | tomboy allows you to write like with a tablet right? | 22:58 |
| RaverWild | anirudh0 -- yes | 22:58 |
| nootrope | Ok, so I've moved the application I downloaded and ungzipped into /opt. How do I get it to launch from a panel launcher so I don't have drill down into /opt/... ? | 22:58 |
| unop | sashimi, yes? | 22:58 |
| anirudh0 | RaverWild, disconnect and try | 22:58 |
| shermeco | i have tried no luck | 22:58 |
| Flannel | RaverWild: But did you verify any of them? | 22:58 |
| Flannel | nootrope: You'll need to add it to your path | 22:59 |
| shermeco | wondering if i can delete it some how manualy from the hard drive and fix this issue ? | 22:59 |
| Guest63 | hi | 22:59 |
| Guest63 | I used a live cd to recover my files | 22:59 |
| unop | nootrope, create a launcher with the full path to the executable? | 22:59 |
| Guest63 | how can i see my files from an old installation the one is not working anymore! | 22:59 |
| nootrope | unop, yeah but no-go | 22:59 |
| unop | nootrope, why not? | 23:00 |
| nootrope | unop, it doesn't do anything | 23:00 |
| anirudh0 | Guest63, mount it first..use file manager for that | 23:00 |
| === freqk|away is now known as freqk | ||
| nootrope | Flannel, what file contains the environment vars? | 23:00 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: i would almost be inclined to believe you may have bad sectors on your HDD. if you have XP dual booting , try doing scandisk and verifying that. choose to fix bad sectors, or you can use a very nice program called SpinRite. i am not sure i can suggest much else. very irratic that locales makes a difference. but then not all that much 5% might want to scan drive for errors first | 23:00 |
| RaverWild | DozedOnLinux : on install i cant finish the installation at all. since i got pissed off i installed 7.04 text-only system to just get the grub installed and so the xp could boot in order my wife to use the laptop. no 8.04.1 or newer install could get to finish at all | 23:00 |
| anirudh0 | unop, type the path out in terminal first | 23:00 |
| sashimi | unop> ok, so what I did is : 1) before mounting : sudo chgrp 100 /mnt/share && sudo chmod g+rw && sudo chmod g+s | 23:00 |
| unop | nootrope, ~/.bashrc | 23:00 |
| unop | anirudh0, redirect .. :) | 23:00 |
| joaopinto | shermeco, have you tried the wine uninstaller as suggested ? Applications -> Wine -> Uninstall | 23:00 |
| nootrope | unop, that's why i'm scratching my head. i can launch it from /opt/... but not is i put a launcher with the full path on the panel. | 23:01 |

Both PCs use the Intel GMA 950 | 23:01 |
| billybigrigger | is there a bot here where i can search on a topic? ie vnc ssh tunnel? | 23:01 |
| billybigrigger | !vnc | 23:01 |
| joaopinto | shermeco, are you running a regular firefox, or you are running it from wine ? | 23:01 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: ok if you have 7.04, you may be able to do this > sudo apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop | 23:01 |
| Flannel | RaverWild: Please boot a CD and verify it. | 23:01 |
| anirudh0 | nootrope, does full path work from terminal? | 23:01 |
| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: that will install the GUI | 23:01 |

| DozedOnLinux | RaverWild: try this first, if you have internet access from console (text-only) >apt-get install gdm ubuntu-desktop | 23:02 |

| jussi01 | Stormx2: back soon ;) | 23:02 |
| fritz | does uharc decompressing take long time really ? should i keep waiting? | 23:02 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, what's your vnc/ssh question? | 23:02 |
| joaopinto | sashimi, mount point permissions are replaced with the FS root permissions during mount | 23:02 |
| Flannel | RaverWild: Assuming those fail, check the md5 of the iso, and burn again at 4x | 23:03 |
| unop | sashimi, can you repeat the steps -- but use an ls -ld /mnt/share after each .. and then put what you have there to a pastebin? | 23:03 |
| nootrope | anirudh0, lemme check | 23:03 |
| nach | Stormx2: for me launcher is the ubuntu kicker on the main pannel | 23:03 |

| hyw | any one knows how to disable digital output in ubuntu.. it is just something we untick somewhere in ubuntu | 23:09 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, you should use an ssh client that supports compression, will help things considerably, don't ask me to recommend one though | 23:09 |
| anirudh0 | adilson, sorry, no clue | 23:09 |
| cliff | sweet, thanks pici, ok simple problem, I installed a sound card because my onboard sound is just to hard to get to work, now ubuntu recognized and installed the card when I did a fresh install, however I am unable to hear ANYTHING!! the card registered as a cmi8738 and I have it selected with alsa, any ideas? | 23:09 |

| Slart | hyw: are you talking about sound? I've got a checkbox in my gnome-volume-control for that... | 23:10 |
| Stormx2 | okapi14, can be a load of things. Nearby speakers, magnetic interference with the video card inside the case, problems with the monitor internally, etc | 23:10 |

| Stormx2 | reportings, what version of ubuntu are you using? Hardy? | 23:10 |
| anirudh0 | reportings, should happen automatically....an upgrade preserves your stuff | 23:10 |

| reportings | Stormx2, yep | 23:11 |
| billybigrigger | anto9us, ok, and my other question is, i think im confused with ssh tunnelling, all im doing is opening putty, setup the tunnel, leaveing putty open and then vnc'n to localhost as the ssh tunnel is setup in putty no? | 23:11 |

| Slart | hyw: also "installation & upgrades" could work | 23:27 |
| unop | sashimi, well, since you want to affect permissions and ownership of the content on the volume -- you need to make changes _after_ mounting the volume, not before .. because, think about it, if i set some insecure permissions on a mount point and mounted someone else's stuff, i'd have complete access to the volume - the permissions of the mount point are changed on mount | 23:27 |
| wrzaskd | This ain't a hardware issue - I'm having the same behaviour on two totally different machines. | 23:28 |

| pjvandehaar | sorry, but how do i change channels? i know, im a total noob at this. | 23:34 |
| RyanPrior | ALL_: Otherwise, you'll need to learn how Firefox translations work in the build system. If that's your goal, perhaps ask in #firefox | 23:34 |
| Slart | KevinO: I think quiet will remove some of the text spam.. but unless you also remove "splash" you won't see it anyways,.. but I'm not sure | 23:35 |
| RyanPrior | pjvandehaar: /join #whateverchannel | 23:35 |
| kindofabuzz | Slart: remove splash or quiet? or both? | 23:35 |

| jamesrfla | anybody have that problem before? | 23:38 |

| Slart | kindofabuzz: hang on.. let me check the man page for grub | 23:38 |
| kindofabuzz | Slart: defoptions= doesn't have the splash option even there. | 23:39 |
| jzsmith | Who should I talk to if I think Ubuntu has a security flaw? Is there a channel for that? | 23:39 |
| BusMaster | RyanPrior, indeed...but those countdown timers are progs where you set a particualr tiem and it start counting down.. | 23:39 |
| RyanPrior | jzsmith: Open a bug in the Ubuntu bug tracker, unless it needs to be confidential, in which case you should probably contact the maintainer of the insecure software. | 23:39 |
| unop | jzsmith, file a bug | 23:39 |
| strixv | So is there a program for video conversion where you don't have to do a bunch of research about video codecs to use it? | 23:40 |
| pjvandehaar | #ubuntu | 23:40 |
| BusMaster | RyanPrior, I want something like, "Deadline to hand in project in XX days YY hours ZZ minutes" and then I would like to keep this on my desktop | 23:40 |
| RyanPrior | BusMaster: You mean, they're egg timers sort of? Like, it counts down from 20 minutes? | 23:40 |
| unop | !test | 23:40 |
| === pjvandehaar is now known as n00b | ||
| BusMaster | RyanPrior, precisely...and I *don't* want egg timers | 23:40 |
| n00b | kick n00b | 23:40 |
| hwilde | BusMaster, you could do that real simple in javascript | 23:40 |
| Slart | kindofabuzz: you can always try adding "nosplash" .. | 23:40 |
| RyanPrior | BusMaster: Well, if you know Python, you could create an app pretty easily. | 23:40 |
| BusMaster | RyanPrior, and even if I restart my computer...the timer should so me the time left for handing in the project.. | 23:41 |
| RyanPrior | BusMaster: Otherwise, just look for a more comprehensive countdown timer app. | 23:41 |
| kponds | any easy way to expose block devices into chroots? ex: i have a device /dev/sda that i need to access from a chrooted environment | 23:41 |
| ubottu | Failed! | 23:41 |
| c1rcuit | so i got into the live cd | 23:41 |
| BusMaster | RyanPrior, If only I were a coder...but I knwo nothing about programming :( | 23:41 |
| c1rcuit | and its starting up the partitioner | 23:41 |
| Xonk61 | I have a question about accessing my files on a partition set up for slackware, but now my OS is ubuntu. can someone point me in the right direction? | 23:41 |
| c1rcuit | why is it stuck at 66% | 23:41 |
| kindofabuzz | Slart: ok, another question, i installed Debian on another drive and of course it used it's grub, how can i place ubuntu's grub back into mbr? | 23:41 |
| unop | kponds, you need to bind mount /dev and /proc (and perhaps /sys too) into the chroot | 23:41 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: corrupt drive? | 23:42 |
| phantomcircuit | is there a reason that the version of aircrack-ng in the repos is 1.0-beta and not 1.0-rc1? | 23:42 |
| Slart | !grub | kindofabuzz, it's somewhere in these links... | 23:42 |
| ubottu | kindofabuzz, it's somewhere in these links...: 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 | 23:42 |
| unop | kponds, the --bind option is documented in the mount manpage | 23:42 |
| c1rcuit | wtf am i supposed to do | 23:42 |
| kponds | unop: thanks! | 23:42 |
| RyanPrior | BusMaster: well, you've got two options then: start learning a scripting language like Python, or keep searching for your dream apps. :-) | 23:42 |
| kindofabuzz | k | 23:42 |
| BusMaster | RyanPrior, :) | 23:42 |
| AAGG | i just installed ubuntu how do i get the wifi to work? | 23:42 |
| glitsj16 | strixv: you can install ffmpeg form the medibuntu repository (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu) and use a nice GUI frontend called winFF (www.winff.org) with that | 23:42 |
| hyw | legend2440: thanks but i really do not have that knowledge about linux to compile stuff dont even know what compile is i just installed wubi couple of weeks ago | 23:42 |
| Slart | kindofabuzz: I think RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows might work for a recovering from a debian install too =) | 23:42 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: what kind of install are you ding? | 23:42 |
| RyanPrior | !wifi | AAGG | 23:42 |
| ubottu | AAGG: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 23:42 |
| l3d | ok i can get the dvd copied to avi with k9copy after that how would i change the format to something a dvd player will read? | 23:43 |
| strixv | glitsj16, beautiful, thanks a lot. I tried installing gtranscode but I get errors about "please insert the cd in the drive with ubuntu gutsy gibbon release candidate..." from synaptic | 23:43 |
| roberto | http://xdccing.com | 23:43 |
| meoblast001 | anyone interested in defending Ubuntu from ppl calling it immoral for having non-free software, go to #gnu | 23:43 |
| legend2440 | hyw: there are detailed instructions in the README file inside the .tgz. anyway without the drvers it won't work under Linux | 23:44 |
| c1rcuit | the starting new partition completely dl 100% but i cant get past step 3 | 23:45 |
| hyw | legend2440: yeah reading the readme it says bash: cd: v4l-dvb-0276304b76b9: No such file or directory | 23:45 |
| Taceo | hello | 23:45 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: you're doing this from the liveCD, correct? | 23:45 |
| c1rcuit | the starting new partition completely dl 100% but i cant get past step 3 | 23:45 |
| c1rcuit | yes | 23:45 |
| glitsj16 | strixv: seems like your cd-rom is still in your sources list for ubuntu repositories, use the menu in synaptic > settings > repositories > third-party sofware tab to take that out | 23:46 |
| Mecha25 | hm... the drive you're reformatting, what OS did it have on it before? | 23:46 |
| c1rcuit | Windows XP | 23:46 |
| Mecha25 | and it's your main hard drive in the computer? | 23:46 |
| legend2440 | hyw: did you do step 1? which is wget http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/archive/0276304b76b9.tar.bz2 | 23:46 |
| hyw | legend2440: yeah | 23:46 |
| meoblast001 | ubotu: free | 23:46 |
| meoblast001 | tell me | 23:47 |
| c1rcuit | i dunno | 23:47 |
| meoblast001 | !free | 23:47 |
| ubottu | freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing | 23:47 |
| meoblast001 | ahh there we go | 23:47 |
| strixv | glitsj16, thanks, I just found that in sources.list. very weird because this hasn't happened before | 23:47 |
| _Zeus_ | there | 23:47 |
| legend2440 | hyw: did you do step 2? tar xfj 0276304b76b9.tar.bz2 | 23:47 |
| c1rcuit | Partman crashed with exide code 10 | 23:47 |
| hyw | legend2440: i typed tar xfj 0276304b76b9.tar.bz2 didnt work i extracted the file my self then typed cd v4l-dvb-0276304b76b9 | 23:47 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: uh oh. that means one of 2 things, either you have a bad drive, or you have a bad live-CD | 23:47 |
| Mecha25 | can you cancel the install? | 23:47 |
| arthur_ | tar -xfj 0276304b76b9.tar.bz2 | 23:47 |
| c1rcuit | dyck | 23:47 |
| c1rcuit | fuck | 23:47 |
| glitsj16 | strixv: always possible the unexpected :) .. easily fixed though | 23:48 |
| Mecha25 | !language > c1rcuit | 23:48 |
| c1rcuit | lol | 23:48 |
| ubottu | c1rcuit, please see my private message | 23:48 |
| Mecha25 | sorry, it's the rules, I know you're frustrated. ok, can you abort the install? | 23:48 |
| c1rcuit | ill just install the previous version | 23:48 |
| hyw | arthur_: even with -xfj tar: j: Cannot open: No such file or directory | 23:48 |
| c1rcuit | wait | 23:49 |
| hwilde | c1rcuit, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=765958 | 23:49 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: it might be a problem with the drive, did you do a fsck? | 23:49 |
| c1rcuit | no | 23:49 |
| arthur_ | try chmod 777 the dir | 23:49 |
| hyw | arthur_: lol the file has a different name actually 1712.tar.bas | 23:49 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: how old is the computer you're installing ubuntu on? | 23:49 |
| hyw | arthur_: tar.bzs | 23:49 |
| c1rcuit | pretty old | 23:49 |
| c1rcuit | 4-5 years maybe | 23:50 |
| legend2440 | hyw: is the folder v4l-dvb-0276304b76b9 on your Desktop? | 23:50 |
| arthur_ | i got hardy on a 600 mhz gateway | 23:50 |
| Mecha25 | c1rcuit: that's when drives start having problems. here's what you can do. abort the install, and go into your System, Administration menu, and select Partition Editor | 23:50 |
| hyw | legend2440: v4l-dvb-0276304b76b9.tar.bz2 on my desktop and 1721.tar.bz2 from http://linuxtv.org/hg/v4l-dvb/archive/0276304b76b9.tar.bz2 | 23:51 |
| shermeco | hello i have a question if any one can help | 23:51 |
| thehackman | is it possible to merge an empty ext3 partition with the current partition Ubuntu is on? | 23:51 |
| Mecha25 | thehackman: have you checked if gparted can do it? | 23:51 |
| cwill747 | shermeco: what's your question? | 23:52 |
| arthur_ | you can shrink or graow a partition | 23:52 |
| shermeco | my wife wants to use the website pogo.com and play a game on there and when i download plugins for java though firefox it still is not working | 23:52 |
| shermeco | any ideas | 23:52 |
| arthur_ | grow* | 23:52 |
| cwill747 | shermeco: did you restart firefox? and are you sure you have the right plugins? | 23:52 |
| arthur_ | gparted is wat i use to resize partitions | 23:52 |
| shermeco | yes i have restarted firefox | 23:52 |
| erUSUL | !java | shermeco | 23:52 |
| ubottu | shermeco: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 23:52 |
| Mecha25 | thehackman: wait a sec. what you might be able to do is copy the files from the second partition onto another disk, delete it, extend the ubuntu partition into that space, then copy the files back | 23:53 |
| erUSUL | shermeco: you need sun-java6-plugin installed | 23:53 |
| AndyB | Could someone help me compile amsn package? i have used svn to get the latest, but the tutorial says to run ./configure but that isnt a file/command | 23:53 |
| thehackman | just tried that but when I try to resize the existing partition its not a clickable option | 23:54 |
| legend2440 | hyw: pm? | 23:54 |
| Mecha25 | thehackman: you have to do it from a live CD, you can't resize or modify a partition that you're using at the time | 23:54 |
| sashimi | unop> still here ? | 23:54 |
| lyn_net | hi all | 23:55 |
| AndyB | Could someone help me compile amsn package? i have used svn to get the latest, but the tutorial says to run ./configure but that isnt a file/command | 23:55 |
| Mecha25 | AndyB: are you in the directory that you got when you used svn | 23:56 |
| unop | sashimi, yep, step in pm. | 23:56 |
| hiptobecubic | Hello froggetts, does anyone know why ubuntu doesn't connect to ad-hoc networks? | 23:56 |
| unop | AndyB, does a file named configure exist in the directory you are working in? are you in the source directory even? | 23:57 |
| filthpig | hi, I'm using hardy on an old (but still kickass) HP Compaq nx7010, nd from what I can tell it's using an ATi Radeon Mobility 9200 gfx card. I remember from gutsy that this card should be automatically detected and installed with 3D support enabled, but this does not happen in hardy. Any ideas what I can do? There is nothing in the restricted drivers area :( | 23:58 |
| Taceo | is there a way to force boot in Ubuntu,.. | 23:58 |
| === matthew__ is now known as _bash3ll_ | ||
| linxeh | AndyB: are you in the directory you downloaded the source in ? | 23:58 |
| shermeco | ok i have installed it and now what do i need to did the stuff that web page said to do and still no go | 23:59 |
| crdlb | filthpig: what does 'glxinfo | grep direct' say? | 23:59 |
| AndyB | unop / linxeh : Gah sorry i never changed directory. Works now for configure but "make deb" doesnt | 23:59 |
| filthpig | crdlb, "yes" | 23:59 |
| linxeh | AndyB: why would make deb work? | 23:59 |
