| marenostrum | I am a user of Xubuntu and what's more a bug assignee. For the reason to see what's going on about the bugs, I'mtrying to find a way/address to download the latest very very unstable relase(nightly lets say) but from Web via ubuntu > xubuntu etc. I couldn't do it. I'm devoting my "old" machine to this task. I'll install the nightlies. So, where are they? | 00:54 |
| marenostrum | Isn't here any Xubuntu developer. Come on, you are about to hire a very devoted tester! | 00:59 |

| marenostrum | i am waiting | 01:02 |
| marenostrum | thanks for voice | 01:02 |
| Odd-rationale | marenostrum: what you are trying to get the latest 4.6 ? | 01:03 |
| marenostrum | sorry? what is after 8.04... ibety or something like yhat. | 01:04 |
| marenostrum | 8.10 | 01:04 |
| marenostrum | nightlies of 8.10 | 01:04 |
| Odd-rationale | 8.10 intrepid ibex | 01:04 |
| marenostrum | yessssss | 01:04 |
| cody-somerville | http://cdimages.ubuntu.com | 01:05 |
| Odd-rationale | oh ok. i thought you meant xfce 4.6 | 01:05 |
| marenostrum | lets check. thanks. but coddy-summerville will be still usefull if she/he is in charge of such things because I'm tired of talking about bugs AFTER the release, I want to be a tester. | 01:07 |
| * cody-somerville is right here. | 01:07 | |
| marenostrum | hello | 01:07 |
| cody-somerville | Hello :-] | 01:08 |
| marenostrum | in short: iwant the nightlies... | 01:08 |
| marenostrum | i want to install them... | 01:08 |
| cody-somerville | To download the latest daily cd build, see http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu | 01:08 |
| marenostrum | and tell you about them. | 01:08 |
| Odd-rationale | hopefully, xfce 4.6 will be ready for 8.10. I'm glad they timed it nicely.. :D | 01:09 |
| marenostrum | i am sure talking about xubuntu | 01:09 |
| marenostrum | Iso.... | 01:10 |
| marenostrum | if i download the nightlies.... | 01:10 |
| * NCommander tackles cody | 01:10 | |
| marenostrum | will the way be to assign a bug? | 01:10 |
| marenostrum | there are many bugs still not handled. | 01:11 |
| marenostrum | or is therea more direct way? | 01:11 |
| * cody-somerville flails. | 01:11 | |
| marenostrum | sorry? | 01:12 |
| cody-somerville | marenostrum, What you'll want to do is make sure to report them against the correct package | 01:12 |
| cody-somerville | marenostrum, We generally don't assign a bug to someone unless they specifically are working on a fix | 01:12 |
| NCommander | cody-somerville, we're all packaged | 01:12 |
| NCommander | :-) | 01:12 |
| cody-somerville | marenostrum, If the package doesn't automatically subscribed xubuntu-team, subscribe xubuntu-team manually | 01:13 |
| cody-somerville | marenostrum, If the bug still doesn't get attention from Xubuntu folks, poke us in #xubuntu-devel or mail the xubuntu-devel mailing list. | 01:13 |
| marenostrum | i can showyou someproblems which are valid and not corrected for the last 2 or 3 releases. I want to test and let you know for 8.10.... forget about the past. | 01:14 |
| * cody-somerville nods. | 01:15 | |
| cody-somerville | Splendid. | 01:15 |
| NCommander | cody-somerville, care to test it as soon as I copy all the binaries | 01:17 |
| marenostrum | cody-somerville, I am trying to think on your replies for about 10-15 minutes. Although tey ate not new ways, Ok, I'll do so. Thanks for your kind replies. | 01:27 |
| Odd-rationale | hey, thunar can restore from trash and nautilus can't?! | 01:27 |
| cody-somerville | Correct | 01:29 |

| ThinkMinus | I ran xubuntu live cd and tried running internet.....but ended with failure | 16:46 |
| nubuntu | i just downloaded LAMPserver, and now trying to download magentocommerce from page http://www.magentocommerce.com/download/noregister , could someone help me thru this? | 16:46 |
| ThinkMinus | also I'm a newbie to linux | 16:46 |
| nubuntu | i've installed on a fair amount of boxes and usually no prob with internet configs | 16:48 |
| nubuntu | at any rate, theres always ppl here to help | 16:48 |
| nubuntu | just like the government | 16:48 |
| nubuntu | i'm with the government, and i'm here to help ... kind of thing :) | 16:49 |
| ThinkMinus | I will try dual booting X wid windows xp just to connect to internet else I will format xp partition:) | 16:50 |

| ThinkMinus | and goodbye | 16:51 |
| nubuntu | k, you don't have another machine to stay connected during the install? | 16:58 |
| nubuntu | gotta go, brb | 16:58 |
| nubuntu | i just downloaded LAMPserver, and now trying to download magentocommerce from page http://www.magentocommerce.com/download/noregister , could someone help me thru this? | 17:08 |
| nubuntu | need help to know which format to download and then install | 17:09 |
| nubuntu | three formats available: zip, tar.gz, and tar.bz2 | 17:17 |
| Grrai | I run xubuntu gutsy, have all repos enabled but can't find package module-assistant. any suggestions? | 17:17 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, it shouldn't matter I suppose | 17:18 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, they are just different formats for collections of files and Xubuntu can open them all | 17:18 |
| vinnl | (I haven't worked with Magentocommerce though) | 17:18 |
| vinnl | Grrai, you can download the package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/module-assistant | 17:19 |
| Grrai | vinnl: thanksalot | 17:19 |
| nubuntu | vinnl, so ones not easier than another? | 17:20 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, the tar.bz2 is the smallest and thus quickest to download ;-) | 17:20 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, wait, I'll check out the page | 17:21 |
| nubuntu | ya, i'm more worried about how to extract it after the download | 17:21 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, ah, no, it doesn't matter indeed | 17:21 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, just double-click, or right-click and select "Extract to" | 17:21 |
| nubuntu | vinnl, so for purposes of extracting/executing? | 17:22 |
| nubuntu | vinnl, where will i extract to? | 17:22 |
| nubuntu | desktop? | 17:22 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, yeah, I don't know how long you'll need those files, if you just need them temporarily you can also download them to /tmp | 17:23 |
| nubuntu | vinnl, well i want to have it installed on the machine, do i just delete them after the extraction, or do they need to stay on the desktop? | 17:24 |
| vinnl | Let me see... | 17:24 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, you want to install it on your local machine? | 17:25 |
| nubuntu | yes, want to play around with it before i go to hosting | 17:26 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, then you'll want to extract it to /var/www | 17:26 |
| nubuntu | ok, lemme try | 17:26 |
| vinnl | That's probably not going to work right away | 17:27 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, can you open a terminal window? | 17:27 |
| nubuntu | vinnl, ya i can, should i do that before i extract to /var/www? was just about to press the red button | 17:28 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, no, you just need to create a folder there and make sure you can extract the files there :) | 17:28 |
| nubuntu | uhhhh, ok ... how do i create the folder :) ? | 17:29 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, have you opened a terminal? | 17:29 |
| nubuntu | on the extract box it has boxes checked that say 're-create folders' and another says 'overwrite existing files' | 17:31 |
| nubuntu | ya, i have terminal open also | 17:31 |
| vinnl | OK, type "sudo mkdir /var/www/magento" | 17:32 |
| nubuntu | k, should i close the 'extract' box? | 17:33 |
| vinnl | Then type "sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/magento" | 17:33 |
| vinnl | No | 17:33 |
| nubuntu | k, hold on | 17:34 |
| vinnl | After you've entered those commands (which create the directory /var/www/magento and sets write permissions for everybody) you can extract the archive to /tmp, make sure re-create folders is checked | 17:34 |
| nubuntu | hmmmm ....ok, so i'm no longer extracting to /var/www ? | 17:36 |
| vinnl | No :) | 17:36 |
| vinnl | Well, in a minute, sort of :P | 17:37 |
| nubuntu | so, i should close the extract box, and reopen it and extract to /tmp ? | 17:37 |
| vinnl | Yep, that'll do :) | 17:38 |
| * nubuntu confused | 17:39 | |
| vinnl | ? | 17:39 |
| nubuntu | ok, lemme try | 17:39 |
| nubuntu | k, i guess it is extracting to tmp ... i hope so | 17:40 |
| vinnl | Is there a dialog box with a throbber? | 17:40 |
| nubuntu | uhhhh, what's a throbber? is that appropriate language for the room :) | 17:41 |
| vinnl | :P | 17:41 |
| vinnl | A progress bar | 17:41 |
| nubuntu | sry. couldn't resist | 17:41 |
| vinnl | Hehe | 17:41 |
| nubuntu | ya, there was a progress bar, but i think its done and gone... | 17:42 |
| nubuntu | ya, its gone | 17:42 |
| vinnl | OK, then if you look at /tmp, there should be a magento folder, right? | 17:42 |
| nubuntu | is terminal sposed to be open still? | 17:43 |
| nubuntu | lemme go look in filesys | 17:43 |
| vinnl | Yeah, I forgot something just now so keep it open a bit | 17:43 |
| nubuntu | yes, there is a magento in /tmp | 17:44 |
| vinnl | Great, copy the contents of that directory to /var/www/magento | 17:44 |
| nubuntu | uhhhhh, ok .... how :P ? | 17:44 |
| vinnl | Press Ctrl+A to select all, then Ctrl+C to copy, then move to /var/www/magento and press Ctrl+V to paste | 17:45 |
| nubuntu | k, so first i click on the magento file ? | 17:45 |
| vinnl | Oh sorry, you first move to /tmp/magento | 17:46 |
| vinnl | Then do the above | 17:46 |
| nubuntu | omg, lemme see if i can | 17:47 |
| vinnl | I believe in you ;-) | 17:48 |
| vinnl | (We have to hurry though, dinner's ready) | 17:48 |
| nubuntu | ok, its copying to var www mag | 17:49 |
| nubuntu | k, | 17:49 |
| vinnl | Done? | 17:49 |
| nubuntu | ya, seems to be | 17:49 |
| vinnl | Cool, then you run "sudo chmod -R 777 /var/www/magento" in the terminal window again | 17:50 |
| vinnl | After that you should be able to visit localhost/magento in a browser and start the installation | 17:51 |
| nubuntu | k, done | 17:51 |
| vinnl | I really gotta go now, though | 17:51 |
| vinnl | Good luck :) | 17:51 |
| nubuntu | k, thx | 17:51 |
| nubuntu | :) | 17:51 |
| vinnl | Bye :) | 17:52 |
| nubuntu | k, bye | 17:53 |
| nubuntu | i report later | 17:53 |
| nubuntu | uhhh, vinnl just helped me download magento, and we placed it into var www magento, but when i point my browser to localhost/magento , i get a box axing me to to 'open with' (browse), or 'save file', but the file is already saved isn't it??? | 18:00 |
| nubuntu | do i have to spell out more than localhost/magento ??? | 18:01 |
| nubuntu | i had someone in xubuntu room help me load magento into a file called var/www/magento , but he/she had to go to dinner on way out said i had to put 'localhost/magento' into a browser to start install process, but when i put that in i get a box with choice to 'open with' or save ... can anyone help me? | 18:10 |

| japherwocky | what do I use to check balance settings for my audio? | 18:38 |
| nubuntu | when i entered 'localhost/magento' got a box to 'open with' or save | 18:39 |
| vinnl | japherwocky, I know nothing about audio, but do you mean xfce4-mixer? | 18:39 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, and what do you get if you do ls in /var/www/magento? | 18:39 |
| japherwocky | the xfce4-mixer doesn't seem to have a left/right balance adjuster | 18:40 |
| steven_ | hello | 18:40 |

| s_Even | hmm.... | 18:46 |

| s_Even | sometimes live-CD really s*cks | 18:46 |
| vidd | im in the middle of my 6th time | 18:46 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, that sounds like a Magento issue, I'd recommend you to look at their support | 18:46 |

| nubuntu | k, thx | 18:47 |
| s_Even | hmm... | 18:47 |

| vidd | wasnt the intention | 18:47 |
| s_Even | and now windows 's on it? | 18:47 |
| vidd | nothing loads anymore | 18:48 |
| vidd | the strange thing is, when i just went into the manual, | 18:48 |
| vidd | partition, it said the bulk of the drive wqs ntfs...not ext3 | 18:49 |
| s_Even | i'm sorry, but i really don't know how to help you | 18:49 |
| vidd | i just set it to ext3....see what happens | 18:49 |
| vidd | well....i am dl'ing the alt cd | 18:50 |
| vidd | heh....i should have done that 3 hours ago! | 18:50 |
| s_Even | :p | 18:50 |
| s_Even | true | 18:50 |
| s_Even | you can also order an official disk | 18:51 |
| s_Even | those also work correctly | 18:51 |
| vidd | changing the file system to ext3 instad of leaving it ntfs solved it | 18:51 |
| vidd | there is no "official" disk for xubuntu to order | 18:51 |
| vidd | only ubuntu and kubuntu, and edubuntu | 18:52 |
| s_Even | damned, true | 18:53 |
| s_Even | forgotten :$ | 18:53 |
| vidd | we're to "new age" for them =] | 18:53 |

| Prikolchik | hi everyone! Could someone please help me configure Atheros AR5700EG wireless card? | 19:14 |
| nubuntu | get a page that says: IT Works! what's that mean? | 19:14 |
| vidd | nubuntu, that means your apache is configured correctly | 19:14 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, that your webserver works properly :) | 19:14 |
| vidd | try this nubuntu | 19:15 |
| nubuntu | zoredache, i think it does need php, but isn't that part of the server? | 19:15 |
| zoredache | no... you need to install it | 19:15 |
| vidd | sudo chown 33:33 -Rf /var/www/magento | 19:15 |
| nubuntu | vidd, i is all ears | 19:15 |
| zoredache | well you may need to install it... it kinda depends on what you have done so far... anyway try 'sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5' | 19:16 |
| zoredache | you'll probably need to restart apache after php is installed | 19:16 |
| vidd | then follow it up with sudo chmod -Rf 777 /var/www/magento | 19:16 |

| vidd | nubuntu, your magento working? | 19:27 |
| vidd | Prikolchik, you have mad wifi installed? | 19:27 |
| Prikolchik1 | i have tried that but it seems to be using ath5k_pci instead of ath_pci (madwifi) driver | 19:27 |
| Prikolchik1 | if i install madwifi i get same result as i have now | 19:28 |
| vidd | and that is? | 19:28 |
| Prikolchik1 | doesnt see any networks | 19:28 |
| nubuntu | vidd, no .... http://imagebin.org/24866 | 19:28 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, when asked to can for networks it doesnt find any | 19:29 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, even if i configure manual connect it fails to connect | 19:29 |
| vidd | is there a stupid power button for your wifi card? | 19:29 |
| Prikolchik1 | there is. but it seems me be on by default (it is software controlled, im on Aspire One) | 19:30 |
| vidd | Prikolchik1, push the power button | 19:30 |
| vidd | do you connect now? | 19:30 |
| Prikolchik1 | 1 sec | 19:30 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, what if you go to localhost/magento/index.php? | 19:31 |
| nubuntu | lemme try | 19:31 |
| vidd | nubuntu, please pastebin ls -al for the directory /var/www/magento | 19:31 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, still same. No scan results. Doesnt see any networks | 19:31 |
| nubuntu | vidd, what is complete command? | 19:32 |
| Prikolchik1 | also lshw says: | 19:32 |
| Prikolchik1 | *-network | 19:32 |
| Prikolchik1 | description: Wireless interface | 19:32 |
| Prikolchik1 | product: AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter | 19:32 |
| Prikolchik1 | so it mustbe on | 19:32 |
| vidd | what does /etc/network/interfaces list it as? (or pastebin /etc/network/interfaces | 19:32 |
| vidd | nubuntu, cd /var/www/magento | 19:33 |
| vidd | then ls -al | 19:33 |
| nubuntu | k, lemme try ... vinn1, no that index.php din't work either | 19:33 |
| vinnl | OK, too bad | 19:34 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, that is what that file says: auto lo [[new line here]] iface lo inet loopback | 19:34 |
| nubuntu | shoot, whats the dang pastebin address agin? | 19:35 |
| vidd | so network interfaces does not show your eth0 or your wifi card | 19:35 |
| vidd | !pastebin | 19:35 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 19:36 |
| vidd | do you have an icon for "manual network configuation"? | 19:37 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, http://paste.ubuntu.com/40226/ | 19:37 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, i have network manager? is that what u ask? | 19:38 |
| vidd | yes | 19:38 |
| Prikolchik1 | well, if i enter a network SSID "Dlink1" that i know is broadcasting and it has no encryption, it fails to connect | 19:39 |
| vidd | set a static IP | 19:39 |
| nubuntu | http://imagebin.org/24867 | 19:39 |
| vidd | preferably outside the DHCP range of the network you are connecting to | 19:40 |
| nubuntu | vidd, and vinn1, http://imagebin.org/24867 | 19:40 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, ah | 19:41 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, try visiting localhost/magento/install.php | 19:41 |
| vidd | vinnl, you type too fast =] | 19:41 |
| nubuntu | k, lemme try | 19:41 |
| vinnl | vidd, ^.^ | 19:41 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, same result. dosnt connect | 19:41 |
| nubuntu | ??? :P | 19:41 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, try visiting that in your browser | 19:42 |
| vidd | Prikolchik1, do you have physical access to this router your trying to access? | 19:42 |
| Prikolchik1 | like 192.168.0.1? | 19:42 |
| vidd | can you lay hands on the device you are attempting to access? | 19:43 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, what do u mean by that? | 19:44 |
| vidd | ???? | 19:44 |
| vidd | can you TOUCH it | 19:44 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, yup | 19:44 |
| vidd | can you pick it up and move it across the room? | 19:44 |
| nubuntu | i din't know this was a religious channel .. isn't laying hands a little desperate??? :) | 19:44 |
| vidd | that is physical access | 19:44 |
| nubuntu | http://imagebin.org/24869 | 19:44 |
| vidd | nubuntu, lol | 19:44 |
| vidd | Prikolchik1, can you | 19:45 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, ok =P. yes i have physical access. And i've also added the MAC address to the whitelist\ | 19:45 |
| Prikolchik1 | i can connect to router with windows no problem (im dual boot) but fail to in Xubuntu | 19:45 |
| vinnl | OK now that's just annoying | 19:45 |
| nubuntu | tell me about it | 19:46 |
| vidd | nubuntu, ive had this issue...... | 19:46 |
| vidd | restart apache | 19:46 |
| vinnl | Hmm, nubuntu, I'm not sure how outdated this is but some of the things listed at http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/general/installing-magento-on-slicehost-with-ubuntu might help if vidd runs out of useful advice ;-) | 19:47 |
| vidd | sudo /etc/ini.d/apache2 restart | 19:47 |
| vinnl | *init.d | 19:47 |
| nubuntu | uhhhhh, ok .....u type too fast | 19:47 |
| vinnl | sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 19:47 |
| * vidd needs a new keyboard | 19:48 | |
| vidd | Prikolchik1, im drawing a blank now.... | 19:48 |
| nubuntu | restarting webserver apache2 | 19:48 |
| nubuntu | command prompt | 19:48 |
| vidd | try access again | 19:49 |
| vidd | Prikolchik1, ive never had that card myself | 19:49 |
| * nubuntu has a garage full of keyboards; wonders where vidd be | 19:49 | |
| vidd | its eather that or i need to put my fingers on a diet! | 19:50 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, well, i've had my friend's same laptop with this card and i somehow made the wireless work for him. But i failed to recreate thesuccess on my laptop | 19:50 |
| * nubuntu needs a new piano | 19:50 | |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, i tried ndiswrapper and windows drivers, but it just crashes Network Manager and doesnt help... also I've read somewhere that ath5k_pci (that is the driver that is currently active for wireless) automatically disables ath_pci (madwifi) if it is installed | 19:52 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, so to get madwifi to work it seems like i need to remove ath5k driver... and how do i do this? | 19:52 |
| Prikolchik1 | vidd, it comes in some sort of a package, i believe | 19:52 |
| vidd | add it to your blacklist | 19:53 |
| hajhouse | i would like to use dnsmasq to cache dns requests on my notebook, which moves around to different networks and so uses different automatically configured dns servers at different times (/etc/resolv.conf is updated by dhclient i would assume). i think the logical way to do this is to configure dhclient to write the configured dns server addresses to some other file than /etc/resolv.conf, then set /etc/resolv.conf to localhost, and co | 19:53 |
| nubuntu | so after apache restart, ive tried in the browser 'localhost', and localhost/magento ... nothin doin | 19:53 |
| Prikolchik1 | i've tried that before with no luck | 19:53 |
| vidd | have you REMOVED it from the blacklist? | 19:54 |
| nubuntu | gotta run out 4 mins ... brb | 19:54 |
| Prikolchik1 | i have installed madwifi, didnt work. Added ath5k to blacklist, desnt work, then i removed it from blacklist. | 19:55 |
| vidd | Prikolchik1, i need to go smoke now...bb in a bit | 19:55 |
| Prikolchik1 | ok | 19:55 |
| Prikolchik1 | i'll try again for now | 19:55 |
| Prikolchik1 | brb in 5mins | 19:55 |
| Prikolchik | does anybody know if there is any way i can reset the configuration of the wireless card? | 20:00 |
| Prikolchik | even if i add drivers to the blacklist it still recognizes it at AR270x, whereas it is AR5007EG | 20:00 |
| nubuntu | vidd, and vinn1, i is baaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaccccccccccccck | 20:04 |
| vinnl | wb :) | 20:04 |
| nubuntu | any suggestions? | 20:06 |
| vinnl | nothin doin, does that mean that it's still trying to download the file? | 20:07 |
| nubuntu | well, the file is already downloaded right? | 20:07 |
| nubuntu | i get the box offering to open with or save file, but the file is aready saved | 20:08 |
| vidd | yes...but its asking ya to download it | 20:08 |
| vidd | im thinking its an apache config issue' | 20:08 |
| nubuntu | so am i sposed to 'save file' again?? | 20:08 |
| nubuntu | god, i am going crosseyed | 20:09 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, no | 20:09 |
| nubuntu | over the last year i have convinced many friends to switch to linux. some of them still speak to me. | 20:10 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, the file you have locally is "on the webserver", when you visit a webbrowser you're asked to download it to the visiting client, which in this case (since you're using localhost) happens to be the same as the webserver | 20:10 |
| vidd | nubuntu, it is not a linux issue...it is an apache issue | 20:10 |
| vinnl | vidd, or a Magento issue I suppose | 20:10 |
| vidd | no....apache does not know how to properly serve that php file | 20:11 |
| nubuntu | vinn1, wait a minute; so you mean i AM sposed to 'download' it? | 20:11 |
| vidd | nubuntu, no | 20:11 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, no | 20:11 |
| * nubuntu is confused | 20:11 | |
| vinnl | nubuntu, what you're seeing is what a visitor of your website would see | 20:11 |
| vinnl | If it were on a public server | 20:12 |
| nubuntu | over the last year i have convinced many friends to switch to linux. some of them still speak to me. <---- was just a joke | 20:12 |
| vinnl | ^.^ | 20:13 |
| nubuntu | ahhhhh, in other words, they would prolly not hang around long ... | 20:13 |
| nubuntu | :( | 20:13 |
| vinnl | "Linux" is a broad term ;-) | 20:13 |
| nubuntu | yup | 20:14 |
| vidd | nubuntu, basically, you need to get your web server to properly display php | 20:16 |
| nubuntu | apparently, from what i am reading, i still havent really 'installed' magento; just downloaded it to a homefile huh... | 20:16 |
| vidd | that is correct | 20:16 |
| nubuntu | aaaaarrrrrrrrgggggghhhhh | 20:17 |
| nubuntu | you guys have been so patient, i appreciate it, sorry to be such the pain | 20:17 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, can you execute the following command in a terminal: | 20:17 |
| vinnl | echo "<?php echo \"Yay\";" > /var/www/magento/t.php | 20:17 |
| vidd | id be interested in seeing your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf file | 20:17 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, and then visit localhost/magento/t.php | 20:18 |
| nubuntu | no output from: echo "<?php echo \"Yay\";" > /var/www/magento/t.php | 20:19 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, that's correct | 20:19 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, but if you visit localhost/magento/t.php? | 20:19 |
| vinnl | (In your browser) | 20:19 |
| nubuntu | get 'Yay' on blank page | 20:20 |
| vinnl | OK, so PHP is working correctly and can be served | 20:20 |
| vinnl | (You can delete /var/www/magento/t.php now) | 20:20 |
| nubuntu | ??? what u mean, delete??? | 20:21 |
| vidd | vinnl, nice work.....(let me write that trick down....) | 20:21 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, that command before created the file /var/www/magento/t.php to test | 20:21 |
| vidd | nubuntu, he had you create a file named t.php | 20:21 |
| vinnl | vidd, hehe, first time ever I used that ;-) | 20:22 |
| nubuntu | ummmm, ok ... so i go to /var/www/ .... and just delete? | 20:22 |
| vidd | this tested that your web server DOES know how to properly display | 20:22 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, you have to go to /var/www/magento and delete the file t.php | 20:23 |
| vinnl | (Check the contents of that file if you like) | 20:23 |
| vidd | sudo rm /var/www/magento/t.php | 20:23 |
| vinnl | (And then read the command above) | 20:23 |
| Prikolchik | oes anybody know if there is any way i can reset the configuration of the wireless card? so it uses the new drivers and recognizes it as right type or something? | 20:23 |
| vinnl | That'll do too :) | 20:23 |
| vinnl | Prikolchik, how have you configured it? | 20:23 |
| nubuntu | k, so : >sudo rm /var/www/magento/t.php will do the trick then? | 20:24 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, sudo isn't needed, but yes :) | 20:24 |
| Prikolchik | vinnl, by configuration i mean that xubuntu recognizes it as the wrong card. it says it is AR242x, but it is AR5700EG | 20:25 |
| vinnl | Prikolchik, oh, sorry, wouldn't know then :( | 20:25 |
| nubuntu | k, done | 20:25 |
| vinnl | Prikolchik, though it sounds like something people in #ubuntu will know | 20:25 |
| Prikolchik | vinnl, im there too atm, and they dont | 20:25 |
| vinnl | OK, now we just wait for vidd to think of a clever solution because I'm out of options nubuntu :( | 20:26 |
| vinnl | Prikolchik, :( | 20:26 |
| nubuntu | k, i was out long time now | 20:26 |
| * vidd is on the phone with a customer | 20:26 | |
| vinnl | Say hi to him :P | 20:26 |
| nubuntu | that reminds me, i gotta get an email off to a client. later. | 20:27 |
| nubuntu | i mean that i'll email him later. always have to make sure you speak precisely on these channels, huh | 20:29 |
| nubuntu | gonna run throw some frozen drumsticks in a pot to sweat a while | 20:30 |
| vidd | ok....im back | 20:44 |
| vidd | nubuntu, you back? | 20:44 |
| nubuntu | yup. | 20:45 |
| vidd | try this : | 20:45 |
| nubuntu | did you have an epiphany? whats an epiphany? is it cathartic? | 20:46 |
| vidd | sudo chmod -Rf 755 /var/www/magento | 20:46 |
| vidd | cross your fingers, pray....=] | 20:46 |
| vidd | epiphany is a web browser i think | 20:47 |
| nubuntu | i will do anything to get obama elected | 20:47 |
| vinnl | That's #xubuntu-offtopic talk :) | 20:48 |
| nubuntu | including sudo chmod -Rf 755 /var/www/magento if i have to ... now what | 20:48 |
| vidd | saying things like that to die-hard-republicans trying to help you ia a BAD thing! | 20:48 |
| vinnl | xD | 20:48 |
| nubuntu | omg. | 20:48 |
| nubuntu | i sorry :) | 20:48 |
| vidd | now that you changed permissions, try to run the install.php file again | 20:49 |
| nubuntu | ummmm, ... ok. lemme try (and find it) | 20:50 |
| vidd | nubuntu, dont worry...im not going to walk you thru formating your hard drive =] | 20:50 |
| vinnl | xD | 20:51 |
| nubuntu | when you say 'run' the install.php , do you mean goto browser localhost/magento/install.php ? | 20:51 |
| vinnl | Yep | 20:52 |
| vidd | yes | 20:52 |
| vidd | survey says? | 20:52 |
| Flannel | don't chmod 755.... chmod +rX | 20:53 |
| vidd | Flannel, we are working on things that are already 777 | 20:54 |
| nubuntu | no dice. | 20:54 |
| Flannel | vidd: They shouldn't be 777 to begin wih, but alright. I agree that 755 is better than 777. | 20:54 |
| vinnl | Flannel, that's what the Magento documentation said | 20:54 |
| vidd | Flannel, any input on how to make this guy's apache properly display php pages? | 20:55 |
| nubuntu | i'm sure its WAY over my head | 20:55 |
| vinnl | Specifically Magento | 20:55 |
| Flannel | vidd: That documentation is horrible then. | 20:55 |
| Flannel | vinnl: Do you have libapache2-mod-php5 installed? | 20:55 |
| vinnl | Flannel, I do, but it's nubuntu's problem ;-) | 20:55 |
| vidd | Flannel, nubuntu is the one in need | 20:55 |
| vinnl | And he has, I believe | 20:55 |
| vidd | hehe | 20:56 |
| nubuntu | i believe that's the one that installed ... | 20:56 |
| vinnl | <nubuntu> nubuntu@ubuntu:/var/www$ sudo chown 33:33 -Rf /var/www/magento nubuntu@ubuntu:/var/www$ sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5 Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done libapache2-mod-php5 is already the newest version. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. nubuntu@ubuntu:/var/www$ | 20:56 |
| vinnl | So yes | 20:56 |
| vidd | so.... | 20:56 |
| nubuntu | how do i verify ... nvr mind ... u type too fast | 20:56 |
| Flannel | nubuntu: Alright, and `ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | grep php` returns two files, right? | 20:58 |
| nubuntu | sry, mom called. i don't unnrstand the question ... | 21:01 |
| vidd | type ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | grep php | 21:01 |
| vidd | it should return 2 files....yes or no? | 21:02 |
| nubuntu | do you mean for me to : ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | grep php into the term? | 21:02 |
| vinnl | Yep | 21:02 |
| vinnl | Should look like this: | 21:02 |
| vinnl | $ ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | grep php | 21:02 |
| vinnl | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2008-06-19 12:45 php5.conf -> ../mods-available/php5.conf | 21:02 |
| vinnl | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2008-06-19 12:45 php5.load -> ../mods-available/php5.load | 21:02 |
| nubuntu | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2008-08-24 11:27 php5.conf -> ../mods-available/php5.conf | 21:03 |
| nubuntu | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 2008-08-24 11:27 php5.load -> ../mods-available/php5.load | 21:03 |
| nubuntu | nubuntu@ubuntu:/var/www/magento$ | 21:03 |
| nubuntu | ok, so yes, two files | 21:04 |
| vidd | nubuntu, is this box your working on world facing? | 21:04 |
| nubuntu | you mean live?? no. | 21:05 |
| vidd | no...not live...world facuing | 21:05 |
| vidd | can you access it from outside your network? | 21:05 |
| nubuntu | hmmmm ...not that i know of, do you want to access it? | 21:05 |
| nubuntu | i have no prob with that. | 21:06 |
| vidd | no...i wasnt YOU to access it | 21:06 |
| vidd | the issue may be that you are too close to the app | 21:06 |
| nubuntu | ??? i don't unnrstand ??? | 21:06 |
| vidd | you have another machine on your network? | 21:07 |
| nubuntu | theres another computer in the room, if thats what you mean? | 21:07 |
| nubuntu | but they're not really 'networkd', just on the same router | 21:08 |
| nubuntu | i'm guessing that's *not* what u meant | 21:10 |
| vidd | on that other machine ... go to [server ip address]/magento/install.php | 21:11 |
| vidd | nubuntu, actually, that was EXACTLY what i meant | 21:11 |
| nubuntu | wait, so i need to determine my server ip? | 21:12 |
| nubuntu | like, numerically? | 21:12 |
| vidd | yes | 21:12 |
| vidd | usually something like 192.168.1.101 | 21:12 |
| vidd | in a terminal type ifconfig | 21:13 |
| vidd | it would be the inet address | 21:13 |
| nubuntu | some website just told me its 76.109.0.83 | 21:14 |
| Ben_Cs | good evening | 21:14 |
| nubuntu | does that sound right | 21:14 |
| vidd | nubuntu, that is your world-facing ip address | 21:14 |
| nubuntu | so that's the one? | 21:15 |
| vidd | no...your INTERNAL ip address | 21:15 |
| vidd | ifconfig | 21:16 |
| vidd | that will tell you | 21:16 |
| nubuntu | k, 192.168.0.107/magento/install.php <---- like that, in the other machine? | 21:17 |
| vidd | yes | 21:17 |
| vidd | do you get the same "download" message? | 21:18 |
| nubuntu | k, should i open the chat from there? | 21:18 |
| vidd | no need | 21:18 |
| nubuntu | ok, gimme couple mins not sure if she left it on | 21:18 |
| vidd | unless you are going to ssh into that machine | 21:19 |
| vidd | hehe | 21:19 |
| nubuntu | OHHHHHH MYYYYY GOOOOOOOD. Welcome to Magento's Installation Wizard ... So I did, I did taw a puddy tat! | 21:24 |
| vinnl | \0/ | 21:24 |
| vidd | told ya you were too close to it | 21:25 |
| nubuntu | How come it's showing up on THAT machine?? | 21:25 |
| vidd | cuzz its a different machine | 21:25 |
| vidd | use the ip and not localhost on yours | 21:25 |
| nubuntu | what do u mean too close to it??? so you mean input the same way on this one now? | 21:26 |
| vidd | yes | 21:26 |
| nubuntu | so does that mean that all 3000 people in the room can now hack into my computer???? | 21:26 |
| nubuntu | lol | 21:27 |
| nubuntu | or not lol :( | 21:27 |
| LoCaLMaChIn1 | anyone know why the ubuntu channel screwed up? | 21:27 |
| nubuntu | what about the state secrets? | 21:27 |
| nubuntu | im pluggd into ubuntu, seems to be working fine | 21:28 |
| LoCaLMaChIn1 | hmmm everytime I try to switch it freezes big time | 21:29 |
| nubuntu | vidd, and vinn1 ... question ... so if i downloaded the lampserver to that other machine i could access from either one?? | 21:31 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, they'd be different installations | 21:31 |
| vinnl | nubuntu, btw, the last letter of my name is an "l" ;-) (You can also type "vin" then press <tab> :) | 21:32 |
| nubuntu | so as i save pages onto this machine, they would not be accessible on that one? | 21:32 |
| vinnl | Save pages? | 21:33 |
| vidd | nubuntu, on the acual machine, go to 192.168.0.107/magento/install.php | 21:33 |
| nubuntu | then how come the install wizard shows up there? | 21:33 |
| vidd | instead of localhost/magento/install.php | 21:33 |
| nubuntu | ya, i am on it | 21:33 |
| nubuntu | haven't started anything with it yet cuz i'm still dumbfounded. dumb, anyways. | 21:34 |
| Ben_Cs | btw guys why use nubuntu and not backtrack? | 21:34 |
| LoCaLMaChIn1 | anyone else having problems with the Ubuntu channel | 21:34 |
| vidd | Ben_Cs, what do you mean? | 21:35 |
| Ben_Cs | vidd: you're discussing nubuntu scripts no? | 21:35 |
| vidd | no, we are talking to the user nubuntu | 21:36 |
| Ben_Cs | vidd: oh i see :) | 21:36 |
| nubuntu | vidd, and vinnl, can i access the page from anywhere? do i need to password protect it? | 21:36 |
| nubuntu | i mean like, i'm my own live server now? | 21:37 |
| LoCaLMaChIn1 | is glitsj6 here or has anyone seen him | 21:37 |
| nubuntu | Ben_Cs: what are nubuntu scripts? | 21:37 |
| vidd | as long as you are not forwarding http traffic via your router to that specific machine, you should be good | 21:38 |
| Ben_Cs | nubuntu: scripts in "nubuntu" linux for phishing info and hacking +security | 21:39 |
| nubuntu | guys gonna run have a smoke (and check on the drumsticks) don't leave (unless you gotta :) | 21:39 |
| vinnl | Ben_Cs, ah, I've actually heard of that :) | 21:40 |
| vinnl | Wasn't Backtrack nubuntu with a new name? | 21:40 |
| LoCaLMaChIn1 | whats going with the ubuntu channel | 21:41 |
| Ben_Cs | vinnl: backtrack is slax based and supposed to be better than nubuntu | 21:41 |
| vinnl | Ah | 21:41 |
| vidd | vinnl, any idea why his thing will display by ip addy and not with localhost? | 21:42 |
| vinnl | vidd, nope, but I'll be sure to remember it since I've had that problem with my own PHP scripts sometimes | 21:42 |
| Prikolchik | vidd, are u here? | 21:55 |
| Prikolchik | vidd, just want to let u know that i got the wireless card to work, lol. Once again, im not 100% sure how i've done it =D | 21:56 |
| totalwormage | :D | 21:56 |
| vidd | Prikolchik, glad to here it | 21:57 |
| Prikolchik | yea, it is funny. In Windows u have no idea how u broke something and in Linux u have no idea how u fixed something... | 21:57 |
| vinnl | xD | 21:57 |
| vidd | Prikolchik, did you reboot? | 21:57 |
| Prikolchik | nope | 21:57 |
| vidd | that is the ultimite test | 21:58 |
| Prikolchik | uh oh | 21:58 |
| Prikolchik | i added it to /etc/modules/ so it should work... lemem restart and i brb | 21:58 |
| liquidmetal | hello | 22:01 |
| vinnl | Hey liquidmetal | 22:02 |
| liquidmetal | I have a problem that i have been trying to fix for 2 days now | 22:02 |
| liquidmetal | I had windows xp media center edition 2005 on a sata drive which is now not working. I have a backup ata drive which has xubuntu on it | 22:03 |
| liquidmetal | i have no cd drive on this computer, i know you can install windows straight from the hard drive from within windows (i have done it before) | 22:04 |
| liquidmetal | i am a programmer and i need windows to test my programs on it. Is there any way i can install windows from within linux? | 22:04 |
| vinnl | I don't think so | 22:05 |
| liquidmetal | i have tried partitioning and using wine, but the windows install program runs into a error with wine | 22:05 |
| cody-somerville | Yes | 22:05 |
| Ben_Cs | vmware | 22:05 |
| vidd | liquidmetal, yes....but only to a virtual image | 22:05 |
| vinnl | Ah of course | 22:05 |
| * cody-somerville nods at Ben_Cs | 22:05 | |
| liquidmetal | vmware? | 22:05 |
| vinnl | !vmware | 22:06 |
| ubottu | VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", only for Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 22:06 |
| Ben_Cs | virtual pc inside linux | 22:06 |
| liquidmetal | ah, ok. | 22:06 |
| liquidmetal | now if its a virtual pc, will i be able to save to it? or will my data be lost everytime i reboot? | 22:07 |
| vidd | liquidmetal, you should be able to save to it | 22:07 |
| liquidmetal | ok, one last question | 22:09 |
| vidd | yes? | 22:10 |
| liquidmetal | is there any way i can have my comp boot to a executible? or have grub point to a file and run it? | 22:11 |
| vidd | like auto-launch an app? | 22:12 |
| liquidmetal | yeah | 22:12 |
| vidd | that is set by the OS, not the bootloader | 22:12 |
| vidd | the only thing your computer can boot is a bootloader.... | 22:13 |
| vidd | grub is a bootloader | 22:13 |
| vidd | windows has their own bootloader | 22:13 |
| Prikolchik | hey, it all works great! I even make the led blink + off/on switch work | 22:14 |
| liquidmetal | ok, thankx | 22:14 |

| dsl | Hello? | 23:02 |
| vinnl | Hey dsl | 23:02 |
| dsl | I have a quick question | 23:02 |
| dsl | On the xubuntu website there is mention on the download page of minimum RAM | 23:03 |
| dsl | What is minimum processor? | 23:03 |
| dsl | (I speak of version Ɏx) | 23:03 |
| dsl | (I speak of version 8) | 23:03 |
| Ben_Cs | 300nhz | 23:03 |
| Ben_Cs | but 450 is recommended | 23:04 |
| dsl | Ben_Cs, in your experience would 500MHz PIII with 384 MB RAM provide a responsive system? | 23:05 |
| Flannel | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements | 23:06 |
| Ben_Cs | dsl: yes | 23:06 |
| dsl | Thanks | 23:07 |
| Ben_Cs | dsl: but you should prefer apps that don't need much ram and cpu. ie: don't use k3b. use brasero instead , etc. | 23:08 |
