[00:10] hola [00:11] quine anda ahi [00:11] Good night, and good luck [00:31] what would cause a server to actively refuse your connection on IRC? [00:32] may be a ban? [00:32] not that I am aware of [00:33] the server having problems. [00:33] look for any informational messages also.. :) could be it dont like you [00:34] [19:33] [Info] Looking for server irc.freenode.net:6667... [00:34] [19:33] [Info] Server found, connecting... [00:34] [19:33] [Error] Connection to Server irc.freenode.net lost: connection actively refused. Trying to [00:34] It's probably just one of the servers in the rotation having issues [00:34] and/or you have too many connections open to the server at once [00:34] ask #freenode [00:43] stupid ipod shuffle :( [00:43] * Dr_willis hands Daisuke_Ido a hammer. [00:56] i *might* have found a solution, but it's a very very long shot [00:56] it was completely borked [00:57] my fiancee's is fine [00:57] so... you see where i'm going with this, right? [00:58] Buy a real media player? [00:59] i have a sansa, but i got the ipod on an impulse buy [00:59] but no, that's not where i was going [00:59] dd hers to a backup, and dd the backup to mine [00:59] worth a shot [01:00] it probably won't work [01:01] but i don't have any better ideas at this point [01:03] my monitor is going nuts after enabling compiz my screen is stuck at top right area while the bottom is covered by some other wallpaper due to this i'm unable to view my lower area to change my resolution. can i open system settings through konsole ? [01:05] kcontrol [01:05] Daisuke_Ido: actually you might be able to restore it with itunes, but unfortunately you need a windows system or a mac [01:06] how can i open kcontrol from konsole [01:06] just type it aaron1 (?) [01:07] just type kcontrol [01:07] geek_: yeah, but for now, i don't have either of those :) [01:07] ok oh kewl i'm at work now i'll try when i get home [01:07] lol man i though my install was screwed up [01:07] didn't feel like reinstalling thanks a million dbizzle my nizzle [01:08] there's a mac lab and eight or nine large windows labs on campus, so i'll have to check that out *if* this doesn't work [01:08] oh it will still be a wreck, but at least this will get you in the right direction [01:08] lol [01:08] yea [01:08] Daisuke_Ido: bleh. thats one of the two reasons i keep a few windows systems of various vintages around (one 98 one XP.. else i'm all linux) ;p [01:09] geek_: what's messed up is that i have win2k running in vbox *right now* [01:09] hola [01:09] Daisuke_Ido: does vbox have USB passthrough? [01:09] but itunes requires xp, and vbox-ose doesn't do usb passthrough [01:09] so a double ouch there [01:09] Daisuke_Ido: the former is fixable, the latter, no [01:09] i even tried itunes under wine [01:09] donde cojo wine [01:09] itunes under wine dosen't handle USB right [01:10] donde bajo wine [01:10] pagina [01:10] any change of my bluetooth motorola headphones working on kubuntu [01:10] geek_: so i've noticed :\ [01:11] Daisuke_Ido: i suppose you could use VMware and get a copy of XP from somewhere... i'd note it dosen't even need to be activated [01:12] this is a possibility [01:12] or a (ewww) vista preview version [01:12] but i'll go for using the mac lab at school to fix it [01:12] i will NOT touch vista. [01:12] lol [01:16] Vista touched me inappropriately. [01:20] vista touching anything is inapporopriate, except bins and shredders [01:21] mneptok: you obviously let it ;p [01:21] I'm not letting vista touch my /bin [01:24] yeah, dding from the flash is a lot quicker than dding TO the flash [01:24] lol [01:24] did it work? [01:24] dunno yet [01:24] 2gb flash, still going [01:30] kubuntu-kde4 on aa1: #1 :D [01:30] that dd is still going [01:31] You did tell it a bs argument? [01:31] nope [01:31] because i don't know what the original blocksize was [01:31] or does that not matter? [01:31] if it doesn't matter, i'll be very upset :\ [01:31] but it's still going [01:32] just telling dd a bs=1024 or somthing argument will double the speed it works at. :) or similer. [01:32] it makes it much faster. ;) up to a point. [01:32] i'm just hoping it works [01:33] though i'm really not very hopeful [01:33] Im not sure what the origial problem is. [01:36] ipod shuffle. hosed. [01:36] dded my fiancee's to a backup image [01:36] dding the image to mine [01:36] i don't expect it to work [01:36] dont those things have special serial #'s that bought songs get encoded/tagged with? [01:37] or am i thinking of some other player/drm? [01:37] i use my own tracks [01:37] does anyone know how to test for bad sectors on a disk? [01:37] Yep. All it takes it to get burnt ONCE at the apple store.. and you realize its better go buy the real cd and rip. :) [01:37] badblocks command, which can also be ran by the fsck command shadowhywind [01:38] Dr_willis: that tests the blocks, i want to test sectors (unless they are the same) [01:38] sectors are in the blocks.. or is it the othe rway... i forget... [01:39] Dr_willis: using cds to rip have a lot of advantages over DRMed crap [01:39] egads. old skool info here... :) and i cant rember . [01:39] like the option to use a lossless format and convert ;p [01:39] geek_: yeah, i like choosing my quality [01:39] Dr_willis: hehe, the reason i am asking i have ran badblocks and all checked out, however useing dban nuke cd it errors out with saying bad sectors [01:40] I thought the badblocks command tagged specific blocks as being bad - so they were not used.. dban may be ignoring that info [01:40] at least i THINK thats how badblocks works [01:49] how do I force rsync to include dot files, it seems to ignore them by default [01:58] Does OpenOffice.org have a channel here? [02:00] hi [02:02] i'm using konversation and am trying to add irc.freenode.net [02:02] but i'm getting a lookup error [02:02] when trying to connect to it [02:06] ...he was here wasn't he? [02:06] wow alot of people dislike vista [02:07] works like a charm on my system been using it since beta 1 [02:07] You are one of the lucky then [02:07] lol [02:07] Its all about the 'little' stupid annoyances that it does. [02:07] works great on my old system also [02:07] athlon 3200 [02:07] no problems [02:08] You are one of the lucky ones then [02:08] bet you won't use windows 7 either huh [02:08] or unlucky - depending on how you look at it.. [02:09] well if you call loving every feature mce desktop search game explorer live photo sidebar unlucky [02:09] thats sor tof a big 'issue' really.. there wont be much choice except TO use windows7, since ms will kill off the older os's to force ptople into using W7 [02:09] HELL YEA [02:09] The game explore thing dosent work very well for my system. it misses half my games.. and do i really need a 'special' thing to launch games that have icons in the menus... [02:10] Plus it came filled with 'demoware' of popcap games. :) that i cant figure out how to remove. [02:10] i have the same problem with my games would have been nice if it was xbox live clone [02:11] Anyone have much experience in setting up network printers? [02:11] "Jim, think of something we can put the word 'Game' into the name. Something the kids will like and want." [02:11] which sort of points out My big issue with Windows -> i feel as if im being treated as some 'cash cow' the companies just want to sell/market more stuff to... [02:11] lol [02:11] Omoikane, i normally use the cups web interface to do that. [02:11] "I KNOW! GAME EXPLORER!" [02:11] M$ is a ass of a company but hey you either love em or have em [02:12] "because, you know, Microsoft products need to use the word 'Explorer' more." [02:12] Dr_willis Yeah, I'm trying to get my network printer to print but to no avail. I can get it to print via a direct USB connection but using http doesn't seem to work. [02:12] i'm beyond exploring just hope there shit work on my pc lol [02:13] !language aaron1 [02:13] Sorry, I don't know anything about language aaron1 [02:13] bah [02:13] !language > aaron1 [02:13] aaron1, please see my private message [02:13] Omoikane, i normally use 'smb' or that hp netdirect or whatever its called method. depends on the printer/printserver [02:13] my bad sorry [02:13] crappy* [02:13] hi [02:13] Omoikane: what make/model of printer? how does it present itself on the network (SMB, http, Appletalk...) [02:14] i need help please? :( [02:14] * reid nub === reid is now known as Reid [02:14] later guys going to play Braid [02:15] Ok, so I just got Kubuntu Remix and updated it so now i got KDE4.1 i think, but I didn't get all the new KDE apps, and I didn't get retard dragonplayer uninstalled, etc. [02:15] Kubuntu Remix? [02:15] yeeps :d [02:15] where can i dl it [02:15] :) [02:15] erm, sec [02:16] ty [02:17] http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-kde4/releases/8.04/release/kubuntu-kde4-8.04.1-desktop-i386.iso [02:17] np <3 [02:17] so what kind of goodies are in this remix [02:17] kde 4.0 :o [02:18] mneptok Brother MFC 7240 [02:18] so can somebody help me please? :[ [02:18] just read a revoew [02:18] review* think i'll pass [02:19] okies :P [02:19] Omoikane: RJ-45 built-in? [02:19] so can somebody help me please? [02:20] mneptok RJ-45? not sure. [02:20] Omoikane: "network plug" [02:21] !kde4 [02:21] KDE 4.1.0 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. Packages can be found at http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-4.1 - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 [02:22] mneptok oh, it a usb built in the router [02:22] Can you help me doc? [02:23] Reid, with kde4? no. [02:23] like the bot says - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 [02:23] Omoikane: i doubt it will work at all, then [02:24] mneptok oh. Why? [02:24] mneptok should I connect with ethernet? [02:25] o [02:25] ty [02:26] Omoikane: i have a Brother laser printer that is built to be networked. it is auto-detected and recognized by Ubuntu without effort. i see no .ppd for the 7240, and it is not even detected. this tells me that it's probably not going to be easy. [02:27] Reid: KDE4.1 is not on Hardy [02:27] check cups.org - perhaps to see how well the printer is supported [02:27] Reid: you'll need the PPA to get 4.1 [02:29] is kde 4.1 default on intrepid? [02:29] mneptok it's a 7420 sorry [02:29] darwin_: yes [02:30] thank you mase_work [02:30] np [02:34] * Daisuke_Ido yawns [02:34] mneptok will it still not work? [02:35] Omoikane: no idea. check out http://openprinting.org [02:36] how would i know if someone hacked into my computer??? [02:36] devo_: you may not notice at all [02:36] but how will i know though, that's the thing? [02:37] you'll have to dig through logs. [02:37] like what kind of logs??? [02:37] devo_: you would have to look and know what you are looking for. why do you expect to know? [02:38] oh ok, cuz i think someone has hacked into my computer already that's why i wanna know [02:38] what makes you believe someone hacked you first off... [02:38] anyway pretty much an off topic topic, but kubuntu comes with no ports open as no services are installed by default, so via network there is no way to get in [02:38] devo_: well, you kind of answered the question yourself. why do you think someone has hacked you? .. [02:39] cuz the cursor moves by it's self, i can't open up some of my programs that i have on my computer & more [02:39] its a ghost! [02:39] :) [02:39] more likely something is just wrong with your computer rather than a hacker [02:40] devo_: well the first 1 we an look at, the other stuff could be anything and could of been done by you [02:40] any hacker worth his salt wouldn't move your mouse :) [02:40] i don't have anything person on my computer, i don't know why someone would hack me that's the thing though [02:41] theres 'paranoid' then theres 'Paranoid' then theres... 'TinFoilHat PARANOID' :) [02:41] yeah rite [02:41] holy crispy crap on a well-smoked stick [02:41] devo_: feel free to pastebin netstat -an | grep -i listen; netstat -tap | grep -i estab and i'll have a look to see if someone is on there heh [02:41] the dd worked. [02:42] ive seen where some dust on my mouse can make it mvoe by itself.. (at least it thinks its moving) [02:42] through the terminal? [02:42] devo_: do it in konsole then paste it into a pastebin [02:42] The pastebinit command will be handy for this task devo_ [02:42] !info pastebinit [02:42] pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9-0ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 8 kB, installed size 84 kB [02:42] ok i'll try [02:43] i cannot believe this. [02:43] it actually worked [02:43] i love linux :D [02:43] Daisuke_Ido, Egads! [02:43] Daisuke_Ido, marry it! [02:43] but i'm already getting married :\ [02:43] my real wife would get jealous [02:44] and she was laughing enough at me last night when i was refreshing a web page every 5 minutes in anticipation of a game's release [02:44] Dont do it! [02:44] I've been having this problem with my kubuntu for like 6 months now, nothing i try helps but maybe someone here can help. whenever i install the nvidia drivers x locks up hard. [02:44] :) its not too late! [02:45] * Dr_willis clears the screen befor his wife walks in [02:45] mneptok couldn't find anything [02:45] flaccid: how do i do the thing that u want me to do, i've been use'n linux for 2 week's so i really don't know that much about terminal command's [02:46] hola [02:47] ok instead of trying to find out if someone has hacked into my computer, how can i make it so that ppl CAN'T hack into my computer??? [02:47] hello jhojan [02:47] um, use Firestarter, iptables, etc etc [02:47] no ingles [02:47] espanol? [02:47] !es [02:47] En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [02:48] gracias favro [02:48] :) [02:48] oh ok [02:48] de nada jhojan [02:48] devo_- have you considered just not running servers that you don't know how to handle? [02:48] but i don't know how to use firestarter though sothat's the thing [02:48] ... install it, set it up, ignore it [02:48] ok gracias [02:49] yeah i have thought of that but then again, i wanna try to make my computer virturally unhackable but don't know how to, can anyone help me out??? [02:49] devo_: switch it off [02:50] what, my computer? [02:50] yeah ;) [02:50] i wanna be able to have my computer virurally unhackable while i'm on my computer though that's the the thing [02:50] lol [02:51] well keep it offline then ;p [02:51] i don't wanna do that ither [02:51] more practically though a nat router isn't a bad start, as is not running any unneeded services [02:51] devo_: goto the kmenu - system and select konsole. paste the command i gave into konsole and then it will output, select it with your paste and copy it then goto http://paste.ubuntu.com and put it in and then give URL back === flaccid_ is now known as flaccid [02:52] what's the command again??? [02:52] devo_: and as for your second question. linux is secure. [02:52] devo_: scrollback === miguel is now known as Guest87619 [02:54] devo_: its [11:42] devo_: feel free to pastebin netstat -an | grep -i listen; netstat -tap | grep -i estab and i'll have a look to see if someone is on there heh and if you had of listened before i mentioned how now ports are open by default. also everything is hackable. security is an abitrary word [02:54] where does the command start from though??? [02:54] netstat -an | grep -i listen; netstat -tap | grep -i estab [02:55] Judging by this conversation, I get the feeling that there's nothing on your computer that anyone would be interested in [02:56] hehe [02:56] and that its probably a faulty mouse :O [02:57] * flaccid brb [02:57] everytime i type in the command line it tell's me this [02:57] devo@devo-desktop:~$ netstat -an | grep -i listen: netstat -tap | grep -i estab [02:57] grep: invalid option -- t [02:57] Usage: grep [OPTION]... PATTERN [FILE]... [02:57] Try `grep --help' for more information. [02:58] i don't get it [02:59] devo_: I get the same error with that command... [03:00] did i type it in wrong or what does it mean??? [03:00] well besides the error thing [03:01] Did you copy/paste the command? [03:02] devo_: you put a : instead of a ; [03:02] netstat -an | grep -i listen; netstat -tap | grep -i estab - needs a semicolon after listen [03:02] oh ok i'll try that then [03:04] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-es [03:04] like this [03:04] netsat -an | grep -i listen: netstat -tap | grep -i estab [03:04] hola [03:05] buennas noches [03:05] español??? [03:05] !es [03:05] En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. [03:05] devo_: netstat -an | grep -i listen; netstat -tap | grep -i estab [03:06] got it [03:07] this is what show's up [03:07] devo@devo-desktop:~$ netsat -an | grep -i listen; netsat -tap | grep -i estab [03:07] bash: netsat: command not found [03:07] bash: netsat: command not found [03:07] devo_: netstat, not netsat [03:09] got it [03:09] there are actually people herre? [03:10] ruth- nope, just a lot of bots [03:10] mmmmmmm [03:10] still tell's me bash command not found [03:10] Hi! I can't believe I forgot this, but, what's the command to list all disks and partitions? [03:10] hhhmmm...... [03:11] Red_Wraith- from a shell? df is probably what you want [03:11] fdisk -l Red_Wraith [03:11] do the people here help others? [03:11] Thank you. [03:11] Red_Wraith: Nothing.... [03:11] devo_: to prevent typos, in future simply copy and paste the command :) [03:11] yes ppl in here do help out other's [03:11] ruth- no, we just abuse clueless people [03:12] Hmm... And to check free space? [03:12] i tried it wont let me [03:12] df [03:12] can I sign up for abuse? [03:12] i just copied and pasted the command devo_and it worked fine [03:12] devo_: how are you trying? [03:12] Red_Wraith: df -kh [03:12] Oh. Okay, thank you very much, both of you. [03:12] devo_: select it in konversation, the press shift+insert to paste it into konsole. i pretty much do this all day here [03:12] i'm just typ'n [03:13] guess not [03:14] ok i got something here it is [03:14] hehe [03:15] devo_: i showed you the pastebin before [03:15] !pastebin | devo_ [03:15] devo_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #kubuntu channel topic) [03:15] you can only paste up to 3 lines in this channel ok [03:15] srry about that ppl [03:15] any people instaled Enlightment Desktop ? [03:17] how do i pastebin??? [03:17] devo_: please start reading what we advise. ubottu just told you [03:18] ok i'm srry [03:21] devo_: do you not understand?

[03:25] yes and you only have bittorrent, cups and smtp open/listening [03:25] flaccid [03:26] ok & what does that mean? [03:26] and just connections to bittorrent and web. nothing suspicious there. so you probably have a faulty mouse or needs cleaning and the other problem we can look at one by one [03:27] oh ok [03:27] because linux is secure, the best thing you can do is use strong passwords. thats the best advice [03:29] got it, anything else that i should know of? === matrix is now known as Brazilian_boy [03:29] yeah, stop freaking out and making assumptions about being hacked :) === Brazilian_boy is now known as Brazilian_Boy [03:30] i need help [03:30] got it [03:30] what's the problem?

[03:42] i have even tried safe video mode install, i get into the os but there are 1 million mouse cursurs on the screen. and its glitched beyond recognition [03:42] i would suggest asking in #ubuntu [03:43] k thanks [03:44] I definatly wouldent know the answer im fresh over from the fedora side === tomaz is now known as Guest68032 === ubuntubob is now known as genius === genius is now known as genius_ [03:46] i was woundering is keepassx a good program? [03:49] hi when trying to nun fsck it stops at Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes and nothing else happens... the fs seems fine when I browse it and such but I'm wondering what could be causing this [03:50] todz: did you give it a decent amount of time to see if it would progress? [03:51] ppal [03:51] devo_: why don't you give it a try. note that kubuntu already uses something similar called kwallet [03:51] really? [03:51] ya I've done a scan of that partition before so I know it should be progressing, and it is giving no indication that it is doing anything [03:52] i didn't know that i guess i'm an idot when it come's to linux & i have been use'n linux for the past 2 to 3 week's now wtf is wrong with me [03:53] devo_: just relax and enjoy it perhaps [03:53] todz: weird [03:53] hhe I've been using linux for 5 years and still need to ask questions devo_ [03:53] flaccid, you there :D [03:53] yeah i know i was putt'n myself down instead of have'n someone else do it for me lol [03:54] no im not [03:54] flaccid, hehe can you help me for a minute :p [03:54] always ask the channel instead of hassling helpers [03:54] flaccid, oh well it was in reference to yesterday [03:55] sure. no reason to ask, just say, it saves a lot of typing for both parties [03:55] hey your right flaccid it's at the next step, usaully doesn't take anywhere near this long, like it should be totally done a couple times by now [03:55] I changed the linux hdd to be the Master ide boot one, connected directly to the motherboard, and now the xp/vista drive is placed on the pci card. So i reinstalled ubuntu on the main hdd now, using ext3 FS, and it installed grub, but when i start up I now get error 17 [03:55]
