| rrrmanion | hi i was told to use xubuntu an went to this website: http://torrent.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/hardy/release/ which option should i choose? | 00:51 |
| unop | rrrmanion, desktop if you wish for the live CD .. alternate if not | 00:52 |
| rrrmanion | how much ram does live cd require? | 00:53 |
| a_ | olivetreeprorhet | 00:53 |
| unop | rrrmanion, for xubuntu i think it's 192 MiB -- you might be able to scrape by with less | 00:53 |
| rrrmanion | like 191? | 00:54 |
| SlimeyPete | you'll struggle with less than 192 for xubuntu... hell you'll sturggle with 192 | 00:54 |

| bofh80 | rrrmanion, your machine from what i can see looks fine for ubuntu. if it needs more memory, i'm quite sure it would be cheap enough to double or more your memory | 01:01 |

| rrrmanio1 | sorry i thinked some how i dced | 01:05 |
| carandraug | floppyears: I was thinking about fluxbox which I'ma lready used or maybe try ratpoison which as intrigued me for a long time | 01:05 |
| lwizardl | hi | 01:06 |
| Samus_Aran | carandraug: I recommend ICEWM if you want functionality/features, XFCE4 if you want a "full desktop" or Fluxbox if you want pretty and don't care about a lack of features/usability | 01:06 |
| lwizardl | whats a good application to browse usenet and support ssl downloads? | 01:06 |
| floppyears | carandraug: any of those will work just fine. Just don't try using gnome or kde since it will make the machine a bit slow | 01:08 |
| carandraug | Samus_Aran: IceWM looks very windowish, not looking for a desktop. I use fluxbox and don't think it's featureless. Anyway in that computer I want to experiment so I'll probably go for ratpoison or Ion | 01:08 |
| Samus_Aran | lwizardl: perhaps try Pan. I used to like it a lot more in earlier versions, it annoys me now. | 01:08 |
| lwizardl | Samus_Aran: yeah but doesn't support SSL and more than 4 connections | 01:09 |
| RifleEyes | i need help installing ubuntu when it sees my partitions as unallocated space | 01:09 |
| Samus_Aran | carandraug: if you compare the feature sets of ICEWM and Fluxbox, Fluxbox is featureless | 01:09 |
| Samus_Aran | carandraug: everything in ICEWM is configurable, and it has full keyboard support | 01:09 |
| Tanuck | what would you suggest as a good ftp client for ubuntu | 01:09 |
| bofh80 | Samus_Aran, ice-wm is outdated somewhat, compared to lightweight desktop environment, LXDE. you should check it out sometime | 01:10 |
| Samus_Aran | Tanuck: ncftp or lftp on the console, most people use gftp in X. I think Filezilla may be available, it's better | 01:10 |
| Samus_Aran | bofh80: I haven't heard of that one before, I'll take a look | 01:10 |
| Tanuck | kk cheers | 01:10 |
| Samus_Aran | carandraug: Fluxbox for instance does not have more than basic keyboard support | 01:11 |
| bofh80 | Samus_Aran, don't get me wrong, when it coems to light window managers, icewm rocks, i had it as favorite setup on debian for ages . :) | 01:11 |
| Samus_Aran | carandraug: you can do everything with the keyboard in ICEWM, easily | 01:11 |
| Samus_Aran | there is also FVWM, worth checking out | 01:11 |
| Samus_Aran | can be a pain to setup FVWM, but it has a lot of feautures | 01:11 |
| === dVs is now known as Guest24095 | ||

| carandraug | Samus_Aran: FVWM you say? Ok, I'll check it out. Thanks | 01:12 |
| Samus_Aran | carandraug: I recommend installing every window manager available in Ubuntu, and trying them all for a bit | 01:12 |

| RifleEyes | i need help installing ubuntu when it sees my partitions as unallocated space | 01:13 |
| a_ | I'm back. | 01:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | RifleEyes: just format the unallocated space. | 01:14 |
| RifleEyes | dude, my other OSs are on it. | 01:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | RifleEyes: if the space is unallocated, thre's nothing on it. | 01:14 |
| RifleEyes | thats lies | 01:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | it doesn't even have a filesystem | 01:14 |
| a_ | how do I do that? fomat unallocatted space? | 01:14 |
| RifleEyes | there is obviously stuff on it because i'm running on it right now | 01:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | RifleEyes: ok.. then well good luck w/ your problem | 01:15 |
| RifleEyes | anyone else know something about this? | 01:15 |
| bubbles123 | hello | 01:15 |

| Error4o4 | dmraid question, i have 2 non sytem disks that are in mirroring on the Gigabyte motherboard's "hardware" raid. Ubuntu sees the disks as seperate. I installed dmraid. dmraid -s shows one active set. http://pastebin.com/m48916dc4 but its not working correctly, any idea?? | 01:15 |

| carandraug | Samus_Aran: I find the problem with trying all possible alternatives to something a bit tricky. Most of times the best features an application takes some time to get used to. "Zapping" through all doesn't give enough time evaluate them decently | 01:17 |

| dmsuperman | Also, as you can see I clearly redirect stderr and stdout and it ignores that | 01:18 |
| MeVsTheVoices | Its not hard and its not complex, get what it requires, configure it the way you wan't, make it, test it, install it, hell deb it if you wan't | 01:18 |
| IndyGunFreak | rrrmanio1: wubi is not really a good way to insall ubuntu.. and its far from 100% | 01:18 |
| minimaxed | rrrmanio1: that uses virtualbox, correct? | 01:18 |
| IndyGunFreak | minimaxed: no, it doesn't use virtualbox | 01:19 |
| minimaxed | or does it use a special linux that can run in usermode? | 01:19 |
| RifleEyes | i don't really want to "try out" linux | 01:19 |

| php6th | help, how to make DVD's from avi files with ubuntu? | 01:21 |
| rrrmanio1 | IndyGunFreak i havent actually used my brothers computer so i dont know | 01:22 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/40804/ | 01:22 |
| anto9us | php6th, devede is quite easy to use | 01:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | rrrmanio1: it works for some, not for others.. | 01:23 |
| minimaxed | IndyGunFreak: I checked it out, it doesn't really explain /how/ it goes about running Ubuntu as an application | 01:23 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: clearly fdisk is identifying the partitions.. | 01:23 |
| rrrmanio1 | my bro was using vista home premium with sp1 | 01:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | minimaxed: f i recall correctly | 01:24 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: i know. the ubuntu installer and partition editor don't see them though. | 01:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | you install Ubuntu inside of windows(you give it say, 20gigs, and it creates a 20gig folder for Ubuntu.. just as an example).. then it creates a windows boot loader(note, not grub).. and it lets you choose ubuntu from there(if my understanding of it is correct, i've not used it) | 01:24 |
| Samus_Aran | rrrmanio1: "Windows has nothing on it" means that in comparison to Windows, ICEMW is godly. Just because it happens to have a taskbar at the bottom in the default configuration doesn't make it "like Windows" | 01:24 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: does it even show different partitions or a single unallocated partition? | 01:25 |
| minimaxed | IndyGunFreak: oh, I guess it does modify the boot loader | 01:25 |
| Bullterd | Hey, Im looking to create an encrypted file server using ubuntu. What would the best way of doing it be ? | 01:25 |
| Kharnov | Hey everyone, I seem to be having a bit of a problem. My memory usage is bizarrely high, and I've already checked all running processes. Nothing could possibly be using this much memory. | 01:25 |
| Reformer81 | I followed a tutorial to convert .daa to .iso and then mount it (http://www.ubuntugeek.com/mount-and-unmount-isomdfnrg-images-using-acetoneiso-gui-tool.html). But now when I mount an ISO, I'm unable to do anything with it because I don't "have permission." Even trying to cd or ls the mounted directory gives this error. Any ideas? | 01:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | minimaxed: ys.. it does(again, to my knowledge... never used it) | 01:25 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: it shows almost the entire contents (approx 230gb) of my harddrive as unallocated and nothing else. | 01:25 |
| Jakob_the_liar | how do i open a .EEG file? | 01:25 |
| rrrmanio1 | IndyGunFreak ithink i just makes it easier (or tries to) to dual boot | 01:26 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, are running any windows apps? | 01:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | rrrmanio1: thats the goal.... | 01:26 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, no. | 01:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | rrrmanio1: also makes it easier to remove if you decide you don't want it. | 01:26 |
| minimaxed | Jakob_the_liar: check it with 'file' chances are you can't | 01:26 |
| anto9us | Jakob_the_liar, I'm not familiar with that filetype, what does typing file <filename>.eeg say about it? | 01:26 |
| Jakob_the_liar | SR000001.EEG: data | 01:26 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, if you bring up system monitor, and check the virtual memory colum . . . do you see anything? | 01:26 |
| Samus_Aran | rrrmanio1: every aspect of ICEWM is configurable, you can do everything without the mouse, including some neat things like spatial window placement. fullscreen any app, turn any app into an icon [system tray], extremely fast, full control over window properties, etc. | 01:27 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: what are your other OSs and partitions? | 01:27 |
| minimaxed | Jakob_the_liar: is it actual EEG data, or how did you get it? | 01:27 |
| Jakob_the_liar | its on disc | 01:27 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, I don't see a virtual memory column. | 01:27 |
| Jakob_the_liar | SR000001.EEG: data | 01:27 |
| Samus_Aran | rrrmanio1: I can't stand using Gnome, it always has windows that you can't resize, can't move, can't close, don't appear in the taskbar, etc. ICEWM gives you full control over everything that's running | 01:27 |
| Jakob_the_liar | well i copied it to my /home | 01:27 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, goto Edit > Preferences in the system monitor | 01:28 |
| rrrmanio1 | amus_Aran i might try what you suggest seem as how i an havibg trouble with 5.10 | 01:28 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, and the little list in the bottom of the box, you can put a check box in virtual memory | 01:28 |
| minimaxed | Jakob_the_liar: "SleepScan and Ceegraph EEG Data" according to filext.com | 01:28 |
| jimmio | Where do terminal applications reside? | 01:29 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: i have XP and Vista, there is an extended partition that came with the drive and houses another NTFS partition, next to that inside the extended partition is a logical for linux and the swap, as well as FAT32 for common data. anything else must house the "recovery partition" | 01:29 |
| carandraug | jimmio: binaries are at /bin/ or /sbin/ | 01:30 |
| anto9us | jimmio, type which <command> to see where it lives | 01:30 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, Okay, I enabled it. A lot is being used by Epiphany, but I already cleared the cache for it. | 01:30 |
| bubbles123 | need help with error message | 01:31 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, does it appear to be the culprit? ie the exessive use you mentioned? | 01:31 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, Yeah. Nearly 200 MB being used up. | 01:32 |
| s3a | any1 no an app that can turn a cd into an iso? | 01:32 |
| minimaxed | s3a: dd | 01:32 |
| === ksatria-yakuza is now known as co | ||
| minimaxed | s3a: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=some.iso | 01:32 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, do you have many web pages open in it? | 01:32 |
| minimaxed | s3a: alternatively there is dd_rescue, in package dd-rescue I think | 01:33 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, No. Only one page running, and I cleared the cache. | 01:33 |
| Samus_Aran | anto9us: a better command to use than "which" is the Bash built-in "type" | 01:33 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: did you create those partition? or was it like that when you got the computer? | 01:33 |
| Samus_Aran | anto9us: it gives more valuable information than which does | 01:33 |
| jimmio | i586-mingw-msvc-gcc is what I'm trying to find... it's not in bin or sbin... | 01:33 |
| anto9us | Samus_Aran, noted, thanks | 01:33 |
| Stargazer | Anybody know how to mount *.mdf ? | 01:33 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, if you change that to a simple page like www.google.com does the memory amount remain that high? | 01:33 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: it came with a vista partition, a "Lenovo" partition (which is inside the extended partition), and possibly one other partition | 01:33 |
| Samus_Aran | anto9us: more valuable because it can identify aliases, functions and system commands | 01:33 |
| Reformer81 | I've copied an executable to /usr/bin/ using sudo... but when I try to run it, it says permission denied. How do I fix this? | 01:33 |
| Reformer81 | ...it's poweriso, by the way. | 01:33 |
| minimaxed | Stargazer: use mdf2iso | 01:34 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, Yes. Only lowers by about 20 MB, but still high. | 01:34 |
| carandraug | jimmio: you tried "whereis i586-mingw-msvc-gcc" | 01:34 |
| === ksatria-yakuza is now known as co | ||
| s3a | minimaxed, wat part of that command do i edit? just the some part? | 01:34 |
| carandraug | Reformer81: I believe you have to make it executable | 01:34 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, do you like ephinany that much? don't want to use firefox or opera ? | 01:35 |
| Reformer81 | carandraug: It was executable before I copied it. Would it have lost that after copying it? | 01:35 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: what laptop do you have? | 01:35 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: lenovo ideapad y510 | 01:35 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, I'm on Epiphany because I'm trying to reduce my memory usage, but for some reason it's actually using more. What the heck. | 01:35 |
| Reformer81 | carandraug: Nevermind... yes, it did :) Thank you. | 01:35 |
| bofh80 | Kharnov, ah i see, i read something somewhere i can't remmeber . lemmie seee . . . | 01:35 |
| Stargazer | Thanks minimaxed :) | 01:36 |
| jimmio | carandraug: Thanks! Found it. /usr/bin... and I only got 15 errors compiling for Winblows.... AHEM, excuse me, Windows. | 01:36 |
| minimaxed | s3a: just the of=???.iso, unless it's on a machine with more than one cdrom drive | 01:36 |
| carandraug | Reformer81: ok. Glad it's fine now | 01:36 |
| carandraug | jimmio: no problem | 01:36 |
| minimaxed | s3a: what are you trying to copy? | 01:36 |
| tominglis | hi, i am having problems getting php to work | 01:37 |
| tominglis | i have installed apache2, mysql, php | 01:37 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: did you create the linux partitions or was it there from before? | 01:37 |
| tominglis | including the prefork, php-gd / mysql modules | 01:37 |
| php6th | thanks! | 01:37 |
| tominglis | i've changed the permissions on var/www to www-data | 01:38 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: i created them, of course. | 01:38 |
| tominglis | and when i put a php file in there it tries to download a phtml file | 01:38 |
| jrib | tominglis: don't use enter to break up your thoughts as it makes it harder to follow what you are saying | 01:38 |
| tominglis | i''ve tried reinstalling php and i have restarted apache several times | 01:38 |
| jrib | !lamp > tominglis | 01:38 |
| ubottu | tominglis, please see my private message | 01:38 |
| Kharnov | bofh80, I tried using Opera a few times but got annoyed because I was so used to Firefox, which I've been using for years now. Epiphany was similar enough, so I tried it out. Any other good pseudo-Firefoxes? | 01:38 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: ok.. you might need to try running windows checkdisk to check the partition tables.. | 01:38 |
| minimaxed | tominglis: make sure you are sending the right content type | 01:38 |
| jrib | tominglis: follow the troubleshooting steps on the wiki page ubottu has just linked you to | 01:38 |
| RifleEyes | djhash: it only sees some of them, like, not the linux ones | 01:39 |
| jrib | tominglis: check if it does the same if the extension is just .php as well | 01:39 |
| DrHalan | hey, what happend to the "blue remote"-plugin for rhythmbox? | 01:39 |
| tominglis | jrib: the extension is just php | 01:39 |
| jrib | tominglis: k then just follow the wiki then | 01:39 |

| rebel_kid | i have problems with the live disc install (only got a 800*600 rez in live, but my keyboard wont work in the alternate (usb with no adapter) is there a way to install with terminal in the live disc? | 01:40 |
| Kharnov | minimaxed, What's it like? | 01:40 |
| ericboehs | Wow.. why have they made it so hard to install flash? | 01:41 |
| minimaxed | Kharnov: or Seamonkey now | 01:41 |
| Kharnov | minimaxed, Are either available in .deb packages, or will I have to compile? Compiling is a royal pain. | 01:41 |
| jrib | ericboehs: you mean visiting a page that requires flash and clicking on the yellow bar? | 01:41 |
| carandraug | SlimeyPete: that's funny. Usually people struggle to make it work, not to stop it. I think System > Preferences > Appearance > set effects to none maybe | 01:41 |
| Reformer81 | I am having trouble mounting an ISO image. It seems to mount just fine, but when I try to access it, I get a "Permission Denied" error! | 01:41 |
| minimaxed | Kharnov: seamonkey should be. I'd be surprised if it wasn't in APT | 01:42 |
| minimaxed | Kharnov: and yes, compiling Mozilla is a real PITA | 01:42 |
| ericboehs | jrib: Yeah it fails | 01:42 |
| SlimeyPete | carandraug: it works fine but I don't really like it | 01:42 |
| jrib | ericboehs: make sure you've enabled the -security and -updates repositories | 01:42 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: your best bet is to use testdisk but unfortunately you need to know precisely how to use it.. the info from fdisk is helpful though. There might be someone here to guide you through using testdisk to fix the partition tables.. | 01:42 |
| carandraug | SlimeyPete: then just uninstall it. You'll end up with metacity | 01:43 |
| SlimeyPete | carandraug: for a start, it interferes with a lot of games ;) | 01:43 |
| SlimeyPete | actually what you said worked | 01:43 |
| rlc | no | 01:43 |
| SlimeyPete | so I'll stick with that for now thanks | 01:43 |
| ericboehs | jrib: where?" | 01:43 |

| carandraug | SlimeyPete: but what I said only disabled. You can just get rid of it and get some disk space. For games I usually just temporarily switch to metacity with "metacity --replace" and then go back to compiz with "compiz --replace" | 01:44 |
| richiefrich | DrHalan: what phone | 01:44 |
| jrib | ericboehs: system -> administration -> software sources | 01:45 |

| Samus_Aran | goodnight | 01:45 |
| minimaxed | Kharnov: oh, I've tried that. really seems no different than firefox | 01:45 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: alteast you can go through the Analysis portion of the testdisk on your own and see if it tells you that it finds any errors. | 01:45 |
| ericboehs | jrib: Yeah firefox never askes to install flash | 01:45 |
| DrHalan | richiefrich: sony erricson w850i (there was a plugin for rhythmbox called "blue remote" but it seems to be gone) | 01:45 |

| jrib | !ask | ajassat | 01:49 |
| ubottu | ajassat: 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. :-) | 01:49 |
| richiefrich | DrHalan: i cant say for sure i would google if i were you | 01:49 |
| jrib | tominglis: not just installed, but you've checked that the files it should create actually exist? | 01:49 |

| pxwebdev | Greetings everyone | 01:50 |
| pxwebdev | Is it possible to email an attachment via SMTP through a bash script? | 01:51 |
| ajassat | If a website specifies it's own font via css it seems to get overidden | 01:51 |
| richiefrich | ajassat: i suggest opera but thats imho | 01:51 |
| templaedhel | so I'm dual booting ubuntu and windows but when I boot windows it gets to here http://www.theeldergeek.com/images/HT0_000/SP32-20040627-224048.gif and then gets stuck there. any ideas? | 01:51 |
| richiefrich | ajassat: not truw | 01:51 |
| richiefrich | if you do it from the config | 01:51 |
| richiefrich | or change it so CSS cant change it | 01:51 |
| DrHalan | richiefrich: thanks for the advidse but i already did that. i hoped to find someone who could help me here but i may better look into a gnome oriented channel | 01:51 |
| richiefrich | DrHalan: yeah sorry | 01:51 |
| anto9us | pxwebdev, yes, you need to install an email server though | 01:51 |
| minimaxed | are the proper fonts installed into X, or does firefox not use X fonts? | 01:51 |
| anto9us | !postfix | pxwebdev | 01:52 |
| ubottu | pxwebdev: postfix is the default !MTA and !MDA on Ubuntu. For help, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto - See also !MailServer | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | minimaxed: it uses X fonts | 01:52 |
| ajassat | richiefred: How do you change it from the config? | 01:52 |
| Kharnov | minimaxed, I'm on Seamonkey now, and I'm actually really liking it. Thanks for the recommendation. | 01:52 |
| pxwebdev | I already have a remote SMTP server | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | ajassat: in preferences | 01:52 |
| jrib | tominglis: what does this return: ls -l /etc/apache2/mods-*/*php* | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | in FF | 01:52 |
| jrib | richiefrich: thanks! | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | ajassat: you can override use the site font | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | jrib: ? | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | jrib: ooh the bot | 01:52 |
| pxwebdev | can someone point me in the direction to doing that, I have googled it but all say to use sendmail | 01:52 |
| richiefrich | pxwebdev: postfix | 01:53 |
| richiefrich | is way better | 01:53 |
| anto9us | pxwebdev, I'd do it this way myself, far less complicated | 01:53 |
| Ketsuban | Hi there. I'm using the proprietary Flash plugin for Firefox, and when I try to visit the Homestar Runner website Firefox crashes, and it has a tendency to cause other Flash websites to start crashing. I collected a crash log; is there a known fix? | 01:53 |
| pxwebdev | ok so say I setup post fix, then what? | 01:53 |
| richiefrich | pxwebdev: then install procmail to filter | 01:53 |
| richiefrich | and sort | 01:53 |
| richiefrich | then use like mutt or squirrelmail | 01:54 |
| tominglis | jrib: yes the files are there | 01:54 |
| richiefrich | or pine | 01:54 |
| ajassat | richiefred: Which preference name in about:config | 01:54 |
| ajassat | ? | 01:54 |
| pxwebdev | it sounds so complicated. | 01:54 |
| richiefrich | pxwebdev: it isnt hard | 01:54 |
| pxwebdev | ok, well then | 01:54 |
| pxwebdev | gives me ideas | 01:54 |
| richiefrich | ajassat: that idk i know if you search for fonts or even in the fonts config there is an override button | 01:54 |
| richiefrich | ajassat: i have it in opera and they arent much different but opera is faster | 01:55 |
| pxwebdev | so would you install postfix as internet site or as a satellite system? | 01:55 |
| === Kernel is now known as Wicked | ||

| richiefrich | pxwebdev: if you follow something like http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PostFix_Howto | 01:55 |
| richiefrich | pxwebdev: and just use apt-get install .. instead of pacman -S | 01:56 |

| _Zeus_ | egc: just remove em all then | 02:26 |
| sander | please, some know about tvtime YUY2 overlay support error??? | 02:26 |
| _Zeus_ | bdubnc: sorry didn't notice that | 02:26 |
| hrast | Can someone help me on monitor sleep? | 02:26 |
| egc | _Zeus_: ok, thanks for the help | 02:26 |
| minimaxed | bdubnc: I've never ever had X fail completely. Is it just impossible for you to get a particular resolution? | 02:26 |
| Gnea | hrast: what's the problem? | 02:26 |
| chris127 | Anyone ever installed mysql under ubuntu ? | 02:26 |
| _Zeus_ | egc: sure | 02:26 |
| droopsta915 | thanks, k3b is installing. | 02:26 |
| hrast | Gnea: Hi, after enter sleep mode, it does not return.. | 02:26 |
| bdubnc | Nope, the most I can set the LCD is to 800x600 | 02:26 |
| Gnea | chris127: yes. | 02:27 |
| Gnea | hrast: laptop or desktop? | 02:27 |
| hrast | I must logoff wiht cntr, alt, back | 02:27 |
| sammy04 | ive had x fail a lot.. especially when you run one of these "updates" and it oses your friggin drivers and leaves you with the error "NO SCREENS FOUND" | 02:27 |
| richiefrich | hrast: no you dont have too | 02:27 |
| chris127 | Gnea, i use apt-get (which is kind of like yum) but it set it up and i do not see a mysql database with a table 'users' | 02:27 |
| VipOrX | droopsta915: you need to install another packaage to burn mp3s in k3b | 02:27 |
| hrast | laptop Hp Dv 6451, with Nvidia driver | 02:27 |
| richiefrich | hrast: how did you login | 02:27 |
| richiefrich | hrast: windows login manager or startx | 02:27 |
| chris127 | Gnea, now i can log in, but i cant create table, etc. | 02:27 |
| droopsta915 | viporx: is that in the apps? | 02:27 |
| minimaxed | sounds very much like the monitor itself doesn't support more, or supports only a weird resolution you haven't found | 02:28 |
| bdubnc | Yeah, I know it's not the ATI drivers it's the LCD. | 02:28 |
| hrast | windows.. | 02:28 |
| firefly2442 | chris127: did you login as root? | 02:28 |
| sander | chris127: sudo apt-get install mysql-server | 02:28 |
| catpys | Anyone got AC97 on a via mobo to work in Hardy? I have no sound after a fresh install. | 02:28 |
| chris127 | i did that | 02:28 |
| chris127 | have mysql server | 02:28 |
| richiefrich | did you make a user chris127 | 02:28 |
| chris127 | runs fine for the tables it came with | 02:28 |
| chris127 | id ont have reload permissions or i would | 02:28 |
| Gnea | chris127: oh i'm quite familiar with apt :) you should check out /usr/share/doc/mysql-common/README.Debian it will give you a quickstart on what to do to get it setup with passwords 'n stuff | 02:28 |
| hrast | see, after 3 minuts, the monitor enters into sleep mode.. and it does not return | 02:28 |
| minimaxed | or you don't have the proper resolution lines in your xorg.conf | 02:28 |
| firefly2442 | chris127: I would recommend something like phpmyadmin for interfacing with it | 02:28 |
| chris127 | id ont = i dont | 02:28 |
| VipOrX | droopsta915,: yes, its libk3b2-extracodecs | 02:28 |
| chris127 | firefly2442, i am very good with mysql usually | 02:29 |
| egc | _Zeus_: actually, i see elsewhere that packages with the yellow star are new-available packages | 02:29 |
| chris127 | i've just never seen it packaged like this | 02:29 |
| bdubnc | chris127: if that doesn't work, try a lamp install like xampp | 02:29 |
| sander | someone here know about tvtime???? | 02:29 |
| droopsta915 | thanks | 02:29 |
| egc | s/new/newly | 02:29 |
| _Zeus_ | egc: really? i was under the impression that the * was upgradeable | 02:29 |
| minimaxed | sander: broken for you too? | 02:29 |
| chris127 | apt-get mysql-server should work | 02:29 |
| egc | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=237552 | 02:29 |
| djhash | chris127: did you select a database? | 02:29 |
| firefly2442 | chris127: what doesn't work exactly? just the login? yeah I would just install via the deb package | 02:29 |
| egc | _Zeus_: just from above link | 02:30 |
| chris127 | ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) | 02:30 |
| sander | minimaxed: im having the YUY2 overlay support error | 02:30 |
| richiefrich | chris127: i would use postgresql | 02:30 |
| chris127 | now i can log in using my system account | 02:30 |
| chris127 | richiefrich, that isn't an option | 02:30 |
| richiefrich | chris127: it is more standard complient | 02:30 |
| _Zeus_ | egc: i realize that the ubuntu logo means that. I'm pretty sure you mentioned a "*" | 02:30 |
| sander | minimaxed: the tvtime appear and instantly close | 02:30 |
| richiefrich | chris127: why not ? | 02:30 |
| firefly2442 | chris127: well, that's probably why, you're not specifying a password | 02:30 |
| _Zeus_ | not an ubuntu logo | 02:30 |
| sander | minimaxed: needing the gatos drive... did you know about? | 02:30 |
| mourad | salut | 02:30 |
| Gnea | chris127: check that README file, it'll tell you everything you need to know | 02:30 |
| francois | Hi, I have a question about mounting if someone is able to help me. | 02:30 |
| chris127 | Gnea, path? | 02:30 |
| chris127 | NOTHING is the same, lol | 02:31 |
| Gnea | chris127: /usr/share/doc/mysql-common/README.Debian | 02:31 |
| richiefrich | chris127: whats not an option | 02:31 |
| chris127 | there is no /etc/httpd ? | 02:31 |
| chubs | hm | 02:31 |
| Gnea | !mysql | chris127 | 02:31 |
| ubottu | chris127: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 02:31 |
| egc | _Zeus_: yes, i mentioned a star...lower in forum it says "Packages with a yellow star are newly-available packages." | 02:31 |
| Gnea | chris127: that's a good resource, too | 02:31 |
| _Zeus_ | egc: ah | 02:31 |
| minimaxed | sander: http://gatos.sourceforge.net/ | 02:31 |
| chris127 | Gnea, that's what I read to do it. | 02:31 |
| egc | _Zeus_: thanks anyways | 02:31 |
| francois | Is anyone able to help with automounting a driver? | 02:31 |
| chris127 | Gnea, that is HOW i have it even installed was i followed that | 02:31 |
| mourad | frensh | 02:31 |
| francois | drive* | 02:31 |
| mourad | ?? | 02:31 |
| sander | minimaxed: i already have then installed in my ubuntu, but tvtime still not working | 02:32 |
| Gnea | chris127: oh ok :) | 02:32 |
| djhash | chris127: when you installed mysql you should've created a password.. did you? | 02:32 |
| sander | minimaxed: did you know how to use the gatos driver? | 02:32 |
| minimaxed | sander: use lsmod to make sure you really have it loaded | 02:32 |
| catpys | Has anyone got AC97 audio to work in Hardy Heron? I have no sound after a fresh installation. | 02:32 |
| sander | minimaxed: how can i load this? | 02:32 |
| kat | catpys, do you have alsa installed | 02:33 |
| Gnea | chris127: if you set a password, mysql -p should at least prompt you for it if you didn't get it placed into ~/.my.cnf | 02:33 |
| bdubnc | chris127: when installing mysql in ubuntu, the system should have came up with a screen after apt-get was completed saying you needed to run mysqladmin | 02:33 |
| minimaxed | sander: do you know what card you use? | 02:33 |
| richiefrich | sander: if it is a module you can -> sudo modprobe FOO | 02:33 |
| catpys | Isn't ALSA installed by default with a clean Hadry install? | 02:33 |
| chris127 | ahh, i should have read over the section: "Set mysql root password" | 02:33 |
| kat | catpys, yes | 02:33 |
| Gnea | catpys: yup | 02:33 |
| richiefrich | chris127: heh | 02:33 |
| sander | minimaxed: yes, it is a saa7133 and my vga is a ati radeon x1650 | 02:34 |
| Gnea | chris127: see, it's good to ignore us now and then ;) | 02:34 |
| chris127 | bdubnc, i didn't have access to run it | 02:34 |
| kat | catpys, if you go to System > Preferences > Sound , Under the Device tab, is everything in Alsa .. it should be, instead of auto | 02:34 |
| catpys | I'm thinking it's not supported by the kernel, which leaves me up a creek, unless there is a bug fix coming? | 02:34 |
| chris127 | Gnea, thanks for link | 02:34 |
| Gnea | chris127: cheers | 02:34 |
| sander | richiefrich: did you know how to load a module of gatos driver or enable this ?? | 02:34 |
| chris127 | Gnea, i didn't know that LAMP accronym either | 02:34 |
| richiefrich | sander: modprobe | 02:34 |
| francois | Okay so, I've got all my music on my windows drive, so I linked amarok to the correct folders, however, everytime I reboot, the drive automatically unmounts and amarok looses it's scanned database items. How do I keep my windows drive mounted? | 02:35 |
| sander | richiefrich: i have installed with sudo apt-get install gatos but i dont know how to use this or enable | 02:35 |
| hkl | exino | 02:35 |
| sander | richiefrich: modprobe for what? | 02:35 |
| hkl | hello | 02:35 |
| catpys | I just tried it kat, still no sound when it tested the pipeline. | 02:35 |
| richiefrich | sander: sudo modprope -l | grep gatos | 02:35 |
| Gnea | chris127: it's been around for the better part of this decade - most open source dynamic websites use that model, although postgresql is starting to gain a better foothold since Sun is throwing mysql under the bus | 02:35 |
| richiefrich | whats that say | 02:35 |
| richiefrich | sander: ? | 02:35 |
| richiefrich | sander: modprobe loads your module | 02:36 |

| sander | richiefrich: dont find anything man | 02:36 |

| === vincent is now known as Guest73664 | ||
| francois | Gnea: Yes, I believe I had to put a password the first time I double clicked the windows partition. | 02:56 |
| rrrmanio1 | do random stuff till you get it right | 02:56 |
| scifiguy951 | shadowbane: use a router | 02:56 |
| Gnea | francois: okay, then you need to follow the directions on getting the smb_credentials setup | 02:56 |
| francois | rrrmaniol: Last time I tried that with mounting I ended up corrupting my bootloader somehow. | 02:56 |
| H0T_R0D | is there a way to make a .exe file into a .img file | 02:56 |
| shadowbane | ok, ill try that out | 02:56 |
| _Zeus_ | H0T_R0D: what is a .img file> | 02:57 |
| velvithammer | can you ping your router | 02:57 |
| rrrmanio1 | shadowbane crosssover cable | 02:57 |
| H0T_R0D | bootable floppy | 02:57 |
| shadowbane | i have a crossover cable | 02:57 |
| scifiguy951 | use a router! | 02:57 |
| velvithammer | can you ping your router? | 02:57 |
| _Zeus_ | H0T_R0D: i don't think you can do that. you need a special setup to make something bootable | 02:57 |
| scifiguy951 | softmodding is easy! | 02:57 |
| francois | Gnea: Okay, will try that. Also //server/sharename do I leave those as is? If not how do I determine what to put for each? | 02:57 |
| velvithammer | xbox sorry | 02:57 |
| scifiguy951 | ?? | 02:58 |
| shadowbane | k one sec | 02:58 |
| Gnea | francois: well whatever your remote system is called in windows networking lingo is what //server is | 02:58 |
| scifiguy951 | is there a way to use .mp3 files instead of .wav files for your log in sound? | 02:58 |
| rrrmanio1 | rancois yeh well when i tried doing random stuff i ended up spending 3 days only to find out i had done it right in the first place | 02:58 |
| Gnea | francois: just replace //server/sharename with your real values | 02:58 |
| majnoon | note to self::::no fart with head under covers | 02:58 |
| Ictinike | scifiguy951, I should hope so, using lamer windows formats sucks. | 02:59 |

| Rolaulten | Hello, I'm running into some issues with my wireless not working with a wep (yes I know) key-as in there is no response I can see from the router. So,,,anyone good with troubleshooting ndiswrapper out there? | 03:09 |
| francois | Gnea: Okay, this seems to be working =]. Also, if you have any ideas as to why my log out button seems to hang with just the desktop showing and not logging out, that'd be great. I've been googling if for a while now. | 03:09 |
| chris127 | so... how do i get vim to be the same as my slackbox ? | 03:09 |
| chris127 | like, how can i do terminal colors, etc. | 03:10 |
| Gnea | francois: no idea.. seen it happen sometimes when there were a lot of processes running.. i usually just wait awhile and it will finish up and logout | 03:10 |
| tico_ | Hi. I'm going to be making a computer to send to family in another country. They have no idea how to use a computer so in case the system breaks I want to make a backup cd that they can just pop in and it will format the hdd, and copy all files back (including OS). So basically, after I set it up I'll make an ISO of the whole HDD with the programs they need, and so I need a script that will... | 03:10 |
| tico_ | ...format the first HDD and copy the iso to the hdd. Is this possible. | 03:10 |
| Gnea | chris127: edit your .bashrc, and in vim... :syntax enable | 03:10 |
| francois | Gnea: Yeah, I've been leaving if for about 5 minutes. Might be a little impatient on my part :S. I'll see if it finishes up next time. Anyways, thanks again, finally got this sucker working >:D | 03:11 |
| Midtronic | also :colorscheme | 03:11 |
| Gnea | tico_: yeah, you should be able to hack together a special disk based on clonezilla - www.clonezilla.org | 03:11 |
| favro | sudo do-release-upgrade -d Midtronic | 03:11 |

| loquitus_of_bor1 | Hey people. I own a copy of Xplane but I don't have an internal dvd drive on my laptop. So whenever I want to play xplane, I need to connect an external dvd drive just to start the damn game! It checks for the dvd to run. So I thought of just mounting an ISO file with loopback to get around this. No go. Xplane seems to not notice that. So what can I do now? I want to be able to play xplane without using that damn drive. | 03:12 |
| favro | Midtronic: shouldn't have to - check in #ubuntu+1 | 03:12 |
| Gnea | loquitus_of_bor1: please watch your language. | 03:12 |
| Midtronic | thanks | 03:12 |
| tico_ | Gnea: Thank you for that. If the backup cd doesnt fit on on DVD, will it work with two? | 03:12 |
| Gnea | tico_: i have NFC, I've never actually set it up like that | 03:13 |

| chris127 | both toolbars are freezing | 03:14 |
| Midtronic | favro: after consulting the topic of #ubuntu+1, I think I'm going to stick with HH | 03:14 |
| chris127 | what do i do? | 03:14 |
| jimmio | loquitus_of_bor1: It's called a no-cd crack.... and may be illegal where you are. It involves replacing the main executable of the program with a patched executable that doesn't attempt to check for the disc-protection... | 03:14 |
| chris127 | using gnome / ubuntu (full updated) | 03:14 |
| Gnea | Midtronic: HH is very nice. | 03:14 |
| Gnea | chris127: toolbars? you mean on top/bottom of the screen? | 03:14 |
| chris127 | nvm, it was lagging out trying to connect to my samba share, day | 03:14 |
| chris127 | Gnea, yeah | 03:14 |
| Midtronic | Gnea: insofar as it won't wreck my existing 64-bit install? | 03:14 |
| Gnea | chris127: ah | 03:14 |
| chris127 | i rather like ubuntu, its like debian and kinda like slackware too | 03:15 |
| Gnea | Midtronic: i don't understand what you mean... what 64-bit install? | 03:15 |
| frank23 | loquitus_of_bor1: acetoneiso can create a fake drive. maybe it would work | 03:15 |
| RAdams | trying to reconfigure an nvidia card using nvidia-glx-new with a new viewsonic monitor that uses 1680x1050 resolution... everytime i dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, it gives only options to set the keyboard, not any display settings. tried a modeline generated using gtf, that didn't work. Tried nvidia-settings, cant click anything because im in 640x480 resolution. Any ideas? | 03:15 |
| loquitus_of_bor1 | jimmio: I don't really care about the legality. I just want to be able to play the game I payed for without lugging around an external drive, which is utterly moronic | 03:15 |
| Midtronic | Gnea: I want to upgrade from GG 64-bit to HH 32-bit | 03:15 |
| ThersiT | is a file descriptor part of a program or part of an os? | 03:16 |
| Gnea | chris127: lol, i've yet to see a similarity between ubuntu and slackware | 03:16 |
| dwhsix|laptop | RAdams: lol, I'm in similar xorg.conf hell... -sigh- | 03:16 |
| Gnea | Midtronic: oh - not possible, you can only go from 32-32 or 64-64 | 03:16 |
| Midtronic | gotcha | 03:16 |
| Gnea | Midtronic: otherwise you have to reinstall | 03:16 |
| jimmio | loquitus_of_bor1: Since it's of questionable legality, I will not and can not discuss it here. Google is your friend. | 03:16 |
| Gnea | ThersiT: usually the OS | 03:17 |
| chris127 | okay, i got colors using ls/grep/etc | 03:17 |
| loquitus_of_bor1 | jimmio: how can you say it is of questionable legality when you don't know where I am? | 03:17 |
| ThersiT | is there any way i can look at it? | 03:17 |
| Gnea | chris127: ccze rocks too | 03:17 |

| hkl | rsi | 03:19 |
| chris127 | so anyone know how to change bgcolor of terminal window to black? | 03:19 |
| Midtronic | chris127: depends on what terminal emulator you're using | 03:19 |
| chris127 | i luv in gnome how u can zoom out on the terminal screen | 03:19 |
| Midtronic | xterm? Eterm? | 03:19 |
| chris127 | how do i tell Midtronic ? | 03:19 |
| Midtronic | are you in gnome? | 03:20 |
| Gnea | tico_: well, i'm not sure if i'd use a DVD for the backup - a friend of mine had a dell awhile back - they had shipped it with a special partition on the hard drive that allowed him to do a full restore - basically, they had thrown norton ghost on there with an image of the OS on there - in a matter of less than 5 minutes, the system could be restored to the exact way that it was at when he bought it. | 03:20 |
| chris127 | "terminal" under accessories (gnome) | 03:20 |
| chris127 | yeah | 03:20 |
| BeRRyBoY | Can someone help me when you get the chance... | 03:20 |
| BeRRyBoY | i can wait :P | 03:20 |

| grndslm | question... i have a bunch of .avi files i need to put on a cd/dvd, 3 or 4 at a time, so that they are playable in a dvd player.... | 03:20 |
| Midtronic | I think it's in profiles. don't quote me on that | 03:20 |
| grndslm | what should i use? | 03:20 |
| chris127 | i like gnome terminal cause of ctrl+shft+v | 03:20 |
| chris127 | Midtronic, nope, no profiles | 03:20 |
| chris127 | Midtronic, i've seen profiles on fedora box | 03:20 |

| Gnea | grndslm: k3b | 03:20 |
| grndslm | Gnea: o really? | 03:20 |
| Gnea | grndslm: yeah - just create a new dvd project, drag your files to the area, click burn, voila! | 03:21 |
| thedlw | hello. I've been having an issue attempting to install ubuntu off the cd. No matter what i've tried i always get this error. rcS main process killed by segv system. I found this on the forum and for that person burning it to a cd not a dvd fixed thier issue. I've burned this to two cds and two dvds all 4 do the exactly the same thing. I've also looked up some boot parameters and none really seem to help me much at all. I'd | 03:21 |
| grndslm | Gnea: not all standalone dvd players suppor .avi files, tho | 03:21 |
| hkl | get new cd | 03:21 |
| warriorforgod | thedlw: Have you run an md5 check on the iso? | 03:21 |
| thedlw | yes | 03:22 |
| thedlw | its fine. | 03:22 |
| Pici | grndslm: You could try using devede | 03:22 |
| warriorforgod | thedlw: Burned at the slowest speed? | 03:22 |

| cn28h | Ububegin, the problem is it's linked to a shared library that you don't have. libstdc++, which you certainly have, but probably it's a different version. The best solution is to compile jad, whatever it is, on your local machine. If you can't do that, you may need to do some mucking with symlinks, or install the version it wants as well. | 03:50 |

| Quiescent | i'm using an ssh tunnel to access the internet, but i have to manually configure every application to use it. is there any way to configure ALL network traffic to go through the proxy? | 04:00 |
| droopsta915 | anyone know how i can burn a cd directly from one cd to the other using k3b? | 04:00 |
| shingen | Quiescent: System > Preferences > Network Proxy | 04:00 |
| wilrecar | droopsta915, im on windows right now but there should be a copy option | 04:00 |
| shingen | Quiescent: that will cover most gnome aware applications | 04:01 |
| cn28h | droopsta915, if you have two CD drives you can try using the raw device for one as an ISO image to burn on to the other (assuming it's a data CD) | 04:01 |
| ApOgEE- | hi, i have Intel Corporation 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) but cannot enable desktop effect. any ideas? | 04:01 |
| === mehteenager is now known as MrObvious | ||
| Quiescent | shingen: will it also route DNS lookups? | 04:01 |
| Scunizi | I got what seemed to be a kernel update today but the kernel ID number (2.6.24-19) is the same as what I had installed. Any idea what this was all about? | 04:01 |
| droopsta915 | thanks | 04:01 |
| cn28h | Scunizi, perhaps a change in the ubuntu patchset only | 04:02 |
| Scunizi | cn28h: ah.. ok.. I was worried about having to recompile VMWare server.. thanks. | 04:02 |
| legend2440 | Scunizi: update was from linux-image-2.6.24-19-generic (2.6.24-19.36) to 2.6.24-19.41 | 04:03 |
| cn28h | Scunizi, probably not, but it's easy if you do need to.. just run vmware-config.pl | 04:03 |
| ogre | wondering if there was a faq for NEW computer users that will help them get started. selling my old lappy with ubuntu installed (also has xp and vista install disks which make great coasters) | 04:03 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: does 'glxinfo | grep direct' say yes? | 04:03 |
| j0Hn | yes, a normal pc as router, that has 2 nic | 04:03 |
| Quiescent | ogre: if you're selling it, wouldn't it be more appealing if you sold it with something that people know how to use already installed on it? | 04:04 |
| Scunizi | cn28h: yea.. I've had to do that in the past several times on different Ubuntu releases. It's a pain but not difficult. | 04:04 |
| shingen | Quiescent: good question, not sure... I know that if you do a nslookup from CLI, it will use whatever local network settings you have, because that network proxy setting is only for applications that are gnome aware. if you want a transparent proxy, look into iptables | 04:04 |
| j0Hn | some say, ipmasq, and do i do that | 04:04 |
| cn28h | j0Hn, well yes, you can provide all the same services.. look up: routes, ipchains, dhcpd, named to start with | 04:04 |
| tsuna27 | how can i make log ins ezer, like a remember me or just that it remembers administrator and i dont need to type it | 04:04 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, this is the output: apogee@apogee-persiasys:~$ glxinfo | grep direct | 04:05 |
| ApOgEE- | direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose) | 04:05 |
| ApOgEE- | OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect | 04:05 |
| unop | tsuna27, you can configure the GDM to autolog you in | 04:05 |
| Quiescent | shingen: i was hoping i wasn't going to have to dive that deep, but thanks. here i go to read up on iptables | 04:05 |
| AndyML | j0Hn: not hard to do. if you install webmin, there is a 'Linux Firewall' module that will help you to configure iptables. Thats where I started... | 04:05 |
| ogre | Quiescent, its for my friends uncle. he has never used a computer before and I figure I'd start him off right before he got corrupted by an inferior OS | 04:05 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: ok, that's a no :) Please pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 04:05 |
| j0Hn | webmin? | 04:05 |
| j0Hn | okay, i'll look webmin | 04:06 |
| AndyML | j0Hn: yeah - www.webmin.com - its a web configuration GUI for most Linux distribs. it works in ubuntu. it won't solve all your problems, but the 'Linux Firewall' module can get you started | 04:06 |
| Melancholia | does anyone use Stardict? | 04:06 |

| AndyML | I installed ubuntu 8.04 with wubi and now cannot get Gnome to load. I login, the screen goes orange, and i hear the music - then i'm back at the login screen. | 04:07 |
| cn28h | hi toilet paper | 04:07 |
| j0Hn | okay, thanks Andy | 04:07 |
| sam_delta | Melancholia ive used it, why? | 04:07 |
| Melancholia | i don't recommend Wubi | 04:07 |
| tsuna27 | unop: not auto i want to see the log in screen | 04:07 |
| Melancholia | at least for now | 04:07 |
| tsuna27 | melancholia: wats wrong w/ wubi | 04:07 |
| unop | tsuna27, i must have misunderstood your intentions then. | 04:08 |

| Melancholia | @tsuna i just gave it couple of shots..and it wasn't that pleasant | 04:08 |
| wilrecar | mguthrejr. sudo apt-get instal bluez-tools | 04:08 |
| wilrecar | or something close | 04:08 |
| sam_delta | melancholia, let me se if i can make it work, just a sec | 04:09 |
| Melancholia | many errors..like the famous Busybox one | 04:09 |
| Melancholia | @sam thanx :) | 04:09 |
| tsuna27 | melancholia: i am using ubuntu from wubi and it works fine other then the fact that in the begging it says partion fail but it still works | 04:09 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: you're using the 'vesa' driver, which is a generic driver providing no acceleration | 04:09 |
| Melancholia | well that wat happened to me with Wubi after 2 installations i get a Busybox boot | 04:10 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | cn28h, I just booted into Ubuntu and ran the command, and also ran LSPCI. Are those both fine to paste for that code thing? | 04:10 |

| crdlb | ApOgEE-: the 'intel' driver, which is installed by default | 04:11 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, i've installed xserver-xorg-video-intel but no change | 04:12 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | cn28h. http://rafb.net/p/rmBLcm49.html | 04:12 |
| cn28h | I find the i810 driver is still better than the intel driver, at least on my laptop | 04:12 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: edit your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and find Section "Device"; change the Driver line to Driver "intel" | 04:12 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, shouldn't it be xorg.conf? | 04:13 |
| crdlb | cn28h: what doesn't work on 'intel'? | 04:13 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: bah, yes | 04:13 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 04:13 |
| cn28h | crdlb, the hardware accel is much slower.. compiz barely runs with it for me | 04:14 |
| cn28h | Guitarrassdeamor, ok, looks like it's not having a network device.. but I'm not familiar with this card.. let me see | 04:14 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | Okay. | 04:15 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, what is the correct name for Identifier? | 04:15 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: identifier doesn't matter | 04:15 |
| francois | can someone help me please | 04:16 |
| francois | i'm getting no sound from firefox | 04:16 |
| cn28h | Guitarrassdeamor, good news is your chipset is supported. Try "sudo moprobe rtl8187" and then check ifconfig -a again | 04:16 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: that's just use to match the Device section to a 'Device "foo"' section in the Screen section | 04:16 |
| === dmsuperman is now known as AgtSmith | ||
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: so it's fine as long as you don't change it :) | 04:16 |

| Melancholia | francois, try installing flash player | 04:17 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, thanks | 04:17 |
| cn28h | Guitarrassdeamor, yes we're using a native driver, which is a much better solution when available. This will try to lad the kernel module for your card | 04:17 |
| cn28h | load | 04:17 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | Okay. | 04:17 |
| === AgtSmith is now known as dmsuperman | ||
| Guitarrassdeamor | Then I shall reboot and try that, and after, reboot again and see if it picks up signlas cn28h? | 04:17 |
| cn28h | Guitarrassdeamor, reboot? why? | 04:18 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | Im not in Hardy | 04:18 |
| cn28h | :S ok | 04:18 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | IIm dual booting | 04:18 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, ok.. restarting x | 04:18 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | Thats why I want to get it solved asap :( | 04:18 |
| cn28h | well before you go then | 04:18 |
| cn28h | you can use lsmod to see the modules that are loaded | 04:18 |
| cn28h | lsmod | grep rt | 04:18 |
| cn28h | that might help | 04:18 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | oaky | 04:18 |
| Guitarrassdeamor | Okay* | 04:18 |
| tsuna27 | so how do i make it that i dont need to type in administrator every time i log in | 04:18 |

| corigo | I am trying to prepare my system to install Ubuntu. I do not have a drive with an OS. I have an 80GiB drive that I need to copy all the files off of to my new 250GiB drive, so that I can format the 80GiB drive and install the OS on it. Unfortunately with the Live CD Ubuntu will not let me copy some of the files. Any suggestions? It tells me that the File Size is too big for the File Type. | 04:21 |
| snip3r | my bad still new to linux | 04:21 |
| leo_rockw | corigo: what's the filesystem on the 250gb drive? | 04:21 |
| corigo | I have formatted as a single primary partition in ext3 | 04:22 |
| snip3r | so is there a site where i can get a good shell account, I've looked on the internet and i have found blinkshell and freebsd | 04:22 |
| mguthriejr | i am trying to connect a bluetooth mouse and i installed the bluez packages in synaptic but i can't find any gui's for adding a device i tried adding the launcher to the top panel but i couldn't find any bluetoth tools i am using xubuntu is there a tool that is easy to use | 04:23 |
| unop | snip3r, what do you need a shell account for? | 04:23 |
| bullgard4 | The ThinkPad computer T42 has a test program called 'PC-Doctor for DOS'. You can detect errors by running the diagnostics test included in PC-Doctor. Is there a similar Linux program available? | 04:23 |

| unop | leo_rockw, sure there is -- but it's some huge number | 04:23 |
| hiptobecubic^ | Does anyone know what user Network-Manager runs as? | 04:24 |
| corigo | One of the files is an .ISO and the other is my old PST Outlook file. Both are over 500MB. But both are fully functional. | 04:24 |
| mguthriejr | i am trying to connect a bluetooth mouse and i installed the bluez packages in synaptic but i can't find any gui's for adding a device i tried adding the launcher to the top panel but i couldn't find any bluetoth tools i am using xubuntu is there a tool that is easy to use | 04:24 |
| zod21 | snip3r thats such a vast thing to wanna learn | 04:24 |
| leo_rockw | unop: well, yeah. i meant it's not something really low like 4gb on fat | 04:24 |
| zod21 | you can really call anyone who knows more about a system than most people a hacke | 04:24 |
| djhash | !repeat | mguthriejr | 04:24 |
| ubottu | mguthriejr: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 04:24 |
| zod21 | r | 04:24 |
| corigo | I could probably do without the ISO (though for legal reasons I'd rather not), but the PST is pretty important | 04:24 |
| unop | leo_rockw, it's 2 TiB which isn't as much as i though it was | 04:25 |
| crdlb | hiptobecubic^: NetworkManager runs as root and nm-applet runs as user | 04:25 |
| snip3r | well i really don't knw where to start, so i thought id tackle it all at once and search the net for lessons | 04:25 |
| zod21 | but honestly the best place to start snip3r is google | 04:25 |
| TornadoChas3r | Hey i need Big Help. I give host hosting and i kinda messed up mysql server I tried to make the var area not access able to the FTP users and i kinda Messup Mysql So people cant access there databases or edit them How to i fix this without reinstalling MYsql | 04:25 |
| snip3r | all i knw is that the first thing is to get a shell account | 04:25 |
| leo_rockw | unop: still is a whole lot | 04:25 |
| shingen | hiptobecubic^: no, but if you ran ps aux | grep nm-applet you'd find out | 04:25 |
| zod21 | snip3r are u using ubuntu | 04:25 |
| therealnanotube | TornadoChas3r: change the permissions on var back to what they were? | 04:25 |
| snip3r | zod21: yea ubuntu hardy | 04:26 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: go to console, that's just like a shell account | 04:26 |
| hiptobecubic^ | crdlb, so if i need nm-applet to run a script with root permissions, is there anything i can do? | 04:26 |
| zod21 | cool well what are you trying to learn, and are you familiar with google search coding | 04:26 |
| snip3r | zod21: do u mean the terminal? | 04:26 |
| TornadoChas3r | therealnanotube: to what right now i have them site as root can read and right group root can read and write and other can acccess files | 04:26 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: yeah, the terminal | 04:27 |
| TornadoChas3r | and Still no luck We can acccess the database but not edit ro add stuff | 04:27 |
| crdlb | hiptobecubic^: how would nm-applet run a script? | 04:27 |
| TornadoChas3r | So Forums blog ect dont wokr | 04:27 |
| snip3r | so in ubuntu a shell account is unnecessary | 04:27 |
| TornadoChas3r | sorry lots of typos lol | 04:28 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: not unnecessary, you can use it as test ground | 04:28 |
| therealnanotube | TornadoChas3r: where is the db located? is it in /var? | 04:28 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: but it's not really necessary either | 04:28 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: some shell accounts provide hosting, which is cool | 04:28 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: i c | 04:28 |
| shingen | snip3r: you have a shell account, since it's local, it's also running x windows on top of it | 04:28 |

| zod21 | whatever | 04:29 |
| zod21 | and then search | 04:29 |
| zod21 | you can also use it to find things you arent supposed to find, if you see what i mean | 04:30 |
| therealnanotube | TornadoChas3r: so, make /var/lib/mysql read/writeable by the mysql user. | 04:30 |
| teq | hi do any of you guys know a way to jailbreak iphone 3g with ubuntu? Thanks!! | 04:30 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: you don't neccesarily need to move onto a shell account. you can just use your comp. if you don't use root/sudo then you can't really break the system | 04:30 |
| zod21 | so google, google code, read up and search for the things you wanna learn and read read read | 04:30 |
| leo_rockw | teq: offtopic question is offtopic | 04:30 |
| zod21 | then hack hack hack | 04:30 |

| leo_rockw | snip3r: there are many terminal manuals out there | 04:32 |
| hiptobecubic^ | crdlb, when a device changes status networkmanager runs the scripts in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/ | 04:32 |
| killemall | do i modify ntp.conf? i cant see which lines is for frequency of the checking | 04:32 |
| snip3r | i think hacking is interesting and learning it might prove useful and beneficial later on, i knw u have to learn UNIX | 04:32 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: start doing man man in terminal | 04:32 |
| therealnanotube | snip3r: you want to learn how to use the terminal, and how to script bash? | 04:32 |
| crdlb | hiptobecubic^: I'd think that NetworkManager would run those, not nm-applet | 04:32 |
| snip3r | if thats what it called then yea | 04:32 |
| therealnanotube | snip3r: i kinda missed your original question, i just came in recently, so... what was it? :) | 04:33 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/10/11/7-must-read-linux-tutorials/ | 04:33 |
| zod21 | snip3r not to be rude, but you also cant really be taught hacking cause you have to train your mind on your own | 04:33 |
| hiptobecubic^ | crdlb, i thought so too, but for some reason it doesn't seem to run with root privileges. I'm trying to make it alter the routing table and it can't do it. I know the script works because when i run it as sudo it has no problems | 04:33 |
| zod21 | learning to think like a computer and understand the code and being able to manipulate is really difficult | 04:33 |
| snip3r | well don't want to be taught, i just want to learn it | 04:33 |
| TornadoChas3r | therealnanotube: THANK YOU WOOT LOL now i just have to make it so they cant have access to it since the websites are in the /var/www I dont know how to block the ftp users out from that or getting to other parts of my server lol | 04:33 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: read the terminal manual and some bash, you'll figure the rest on your own | 04:34 |

| therealnanotube | snip3r: well, if you have a linux computer, yea, that's your shell account - a shell account is just an account on a remote or local unix comp. you have one, so there it is. | 04:37 |
| shingen | terminal manual? lol, first place to start is read the linux system administrator's guide :P Good old sag... then you switch to reading NAG... I'll let you figure out what NAG stands for :) | 04:37 |
| === hiptobecubic^ is now known as hiptobecubic | ||
| snip3r | and where can i get system admin guide and then NAG? | 04:38 |
| shingen | google for it | 04:38 |
| djhash | bullgard4: what does PC-Doctor do | 04:38 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: check out the link I gave you, there are many manuals there | 04:38 |
| jigp | therealnanotube : thanks..ill go for that package then.. :) | 04:39 |
| snip3r | yea im looking at it right now | 04:39 |
| bullgard4 | djhash: You can detect errors by running the diagnostics test included in PC-Doctor. | 04:39 |
| crdlb | hiptobecubic: have you tried getting the output of whoami and writing it to a file in that script? | 04:39 |
| Guitarras | http://paste.ubuntu.com/40824/ | 04:39 |
| Guitarras | can someonje help? | 04:39 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: in what way? | 04:39 |
| djhash | bullgard4: more details.. what kind of diagnostics? what type of errors? | 04:39 |
| zSoilworker | Guitarras: the command is modprobe | 04:39 |
| Guitarras | zsoil | 04:40 |
| Guitarras | Isnt that what i typed? | 04:40 |
| hiptobecubic | crdlb, whoami! that's the command i was looking for earlier. thanks i'll try it | 04:40 |
| Guitarras | damn | 04:40 |
| zSoilworker | Guitarras: You'll be amazed. | 04:40 |
| therealnanotube | jigp: well, does it hurt to try it, and if it doesn't work, upgrade? | 04:40 |
| Guitarras | Zsoil i feel like a tard haha. | 04:40 |
| Guitarras | ill be back. | 04:40 |
| dhenry | snip3r: if you have no experience on the command line, the man pages might be a bit overwhelming. If you want an easier introduction, you might try something like http://gd.tuwien.ac.at/linuxcommand.org/. If you want to learn "hacking" you should look into learning C and prolly some X86 assembly. | 04:40 |
| Freedom | hi | 04:40 |
| snip3r | ok | 04:41 |
| DEdwards | i need some quick advise | 04:41 |
| therealnanotube | TornadoChas3r: well, if i understand you correctly, you can make /var/lib/mysql accessible to them, but /var/www inaccessible, just by setting the permissions? | 04:41 |
| DEdwards | my ubuntu cd freezes during format | 04:41 |
| snip3r | another thing am i stuck in the ubuntu irc or can i log onto others? | 04:41 |
| therealnanotube | TornadoChas3r: otherwise, describe where exactly do youwant your ftp users to have access to, and where not. | 04:41 |
| dhenry | snip3r: are you using xchat? | 04:42 |
| therealnanotube | snip3r: you can log into any irc. | 04:42 |
| crdlb | snip3r: this network is called freenode, and yes, you can join whatever network you want | 04:42 |
| mneptok | snip3r: i would suggest installing zsh and changing your login shell to that | 04:42 |
| andersonorui | hi there, does anyone know how can i share internet connection from leopard to ubuntu with a crossover cable? | 04:42 |
| DEdwards | that is i am formating my HDD as EXT3 and it locks up at 33% | 04:42 |
| TornadoChas3r | therealnanotube: i never chaged permission to /var/www plus thats where the site are but they can access more than Just that and or JUST there site | 04:42 |
| bullgard4 | djhash: http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?Indocid=MIGR-46464 | 04:42 |
| therealnanotube | snip3r: to learn about the terminal, a good starter site is "linuxcommand.org" | 04:42 |
| leo_rockw | mneptok: why do you recommend zsh over bash? | 04:42 |
| TornadoChas3r | therealnanotube: i just dont know how to get proftpd to deny them acces to other places than there home area or there site | 04:42 |
| mneptok | leo_rockw: it offers the same featureset as bash, but also includes much more than does bash (e.g. completions) | 04:43 |
| dhenry | DEdwards: How long has it been stuck at 33%? How big is the partition its trying to format? | 04:43 |
| therealnanotube | look around in proftpd manuals, it's been a long time since i've even looked at it, but as i recall, it has pretty robust permissions specifications. | 04:43 |
| leo_rockw | mneptok: thanks, I'll look into it then | 04:43 |
| TornadoChas3r | ok | 04:43 |
| TornadoChas3r | Thanks | 04:43 |
| mneptok | leo_rockw: basically, if someone does not have a history and familiarity with bash, i think zsh is a better choice in 2008. | 04:44 |
| Reformer81 | For the past month or so I've noticed that my internet browsing is slower than it used to be (and MUCH slower than the "up to 6mbps" advertised by AT&T Yahoo, my ISP). How can I go about diagnosing what is eating up my bandwidth? | 04:44 |
| snip3r | mneptok: is zsh in the installing manager? | 04:44 |
| persept | i was wondering if the LAN would automatically configure in ubuntu-server edition? | 04:44 |
| mneptok | snip3r: certainly | 04:44 |
| crdlb | mneptok: bash-completion? :) | 04:44 |
| djhash | bullgard4: that link doesnt work.. check it | 04:44 |
| mneptok | snip3r: sudo apt-get install zsh zsh-doc zsh-lovers | 04:44 |
| persept | so once i install the server edition i could connect to something and then be able to install packages? | 04:44 |
| TornadoChas3r | therealnanotube: one more question What about IP bans on proftpd I had trouble installed the ban module is there any other way sorry i sound annoying lol | 04:44 |
| leo_rockw | mneptok: crdlb is right, there is a bash-completion package | 04:44 |
| mneptok | leo_rockw: does bash auto-complete package names from your apt cache? zsh does. | 04:45 |
| bullgard4 | djhash: Only after you answered the question which I have put. | 04:45 |
| crdlb | mneptok: yes | 04:45 |
| mneptok | crdlb: natively, or do you have to install completions? will it complete filenames on remote hosts? | 04:46 |
| snip3r | i really need to learn how to use the terminal | 04:46 |
| Guitarras | zSoilworker: http://paste.ubuntu.com/40826/ | 04:46 |
| snip3r | thanks for the sites guys | 04:46 |
| Freedom | Hi All, I am enjoying Ubuntu a LOT. The one question I have: is there an audio program that can import my audio files and sort them into directories based on their ID3 tags (like iTunes does) and change the file names and directory names if the tag changes? | 04:46 |
| mneptok | snip3r: you don;t leatn to use a terminal. you learn to use the shell software running inside it. | 04:46 |
| zSoilworker | Guitarras: So, what's the deal? | 04:46 |
| leo_rockw | mneptok: it autocompletes apt-get install packages names | 04:46 |
| Guitarras | Zsoil- Its still not working (wireless) | 04:46 |
| DEdwards | dhenry, an hour and 4GB | 04:47 |
| snip3r | ok then that | 04:47 |
| djhash | bullgard4: what do you mean? | 04:47 |
| Guitarras | Thats what cn28h told me to do. | 04:47 |
| snip3r | just want to knw something other than how to talk to ppl online | 04:47 |
| therealnanotube | TornadoChas3r: you could do it through your firewall, i guess. | 04:47 |
| snip3r | can i use c and other languages in the terminal? | 04:47 |
| TornadoChas3r | i guess good idea lol | 04:47 |
| therealnanotube | mneptok: what's the benefits of zsh vs bash? | 04:47 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: no, to run C programs they need to be compiled first | 04:48 |
| therealnanotube | snip3r: yea, you can code stuff in the terminal, in c, or any other language you have installed.. | 04:48 |
| shingen | it's amazing what google can find http://friedcpu.wordpress.com/2007/07/24/zsh-the-last-shell-youll-ever-need/ :P | 04:48 |
| linxuz3r | snip3r: you can only use bash in the terminal | 04:48 |
| linxuz3r | or csh | 04:48 |
| cutandbrused | hello all | 04:48 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: you can call a python interpreter. python is easier to learn than C | 04:48 |
| linxuz3r | hi cut and bruised | 04:48 |
| leo_rockw | cutandbrused: hello | 04:48 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, this computer cannot use intel driver. when I reboot, it appear low res and reverted back to vesa | 04:48 |
| kc8pxy | if i want to ftp/sftp into my ubuntu server, what package do i need? | 04:48 |
| mneptok | therealnanotube: that's a politically charged subject. and it has been answered on the lazyweb far better than i could. | 04:49 |
| G3N0 | okay im really sick of not being able to play any kind of flash videos and or music. is there any kind of fix whatsoever? i cant even play youtube | 04:49 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, any ideas on how to fix it? | 04:49 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: xserver-xorg-video-intel is definitely installed? | 04:49 |
| mneptok | linxuz3r: there are more shells than just bash and csh ;) | 04:49 |
| therealnanotube | snip3r: see this ubuntuforums programming talk thread for a bunch of resources on learning to program: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=832449 | 04:49 |
| cutandbrused | can anyone tell me what cool stuff i can do with ubuntu | 04:49 |
| snip3r | wat do u mean i have to compile the language? | 04:49 |
| Freedom | you need to install flash | 04:49 |
| G3N0 | its installed. | 04:49 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, yes installed | 04:49 |
| kc8pxy | G3N0: what arch? | 04:49 |
| linxuz3r | yes | 04:49 |
| linxuz3r | hi mneptok | 04:49 |
| leo_rockw | G3N0: install swfdec | 04:49 |
| G3N0 | ubunut 8 | 04:49 |
| shingen | ewww, zsh is 'mostly' compatible with bash | 04:49 |
| chris127 | is there a way to upgrade: VIM - Vi IMproved 7.1 (2007 May 12, compiled Jan 31 2008 12:15:03) | 04:49 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, you need to install flashplugin-nonfree and libflashsupport | 04:50 |
| Guitarras | Somebody please help me with my wireless. | 04:50 |
| G3N0 | swfdec is better than the actualy shockwave flash? | 04:50 |
| chris127 | like yum upgrade xxxxx | 04:50 |
| leo_rockw | G3N0: define betetr | 04:50 |
| dhenry | DEdwards: Any error messages? Any luck restarting the install? Is the HDD light on? I have had installs freeze but its been a couple releases since anything like that has happened. | 04:50 |
| leo_rockw | G3N0: er... better* | 04:50 |
| zelrikriando | leo_rockw, swfdec doesnt work with pulse audio on hardy | 04:50 |
| kc8pxy | G3N0: i386 or x64? | 04:50 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: you can try the i810 driver I guess (xserver-xorg-video-i810) | 04:50 |
| G3N0 | i386 | 04:50 |
| leo_rockw | zelrikriando: ooo, i use aRTs | 04:50 |
| linxuz3r | so you guys heard | 04:50 |
| snip3r | another thing guys, i have this problem when my comp hibernates or is suspended | 04:50 |
| favro | !apt | chris127 | 04:50 |
| ubottu | chris127: APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) | 04:50 |
| snip3r | i get a message telling me that it failed to sleep | 04:50 |
| zelrikriando | leo_rockw, what is aRTs? | 04:51 |
| DEdwards | dhenry, no errors the HDD light does not come on, ive tried 3 times, and ive used this CD on multiple systems | 04:51 |
| leo_rockw | zelrikriando: KDE 3.5.9 sound system | 04:51 |
| Unidentified4823 | Anyway I am going to go hope i have no other problmes if not i will be back lol | 04:51 |
| zelrikriando | leo_rockw, oh ok I see | 04:51 |
| === Unidentified4823 is now known as TornadoChas3r | ||
| leo_rockw | zelrikriando: i switched to swfdec because it manages resources better and because it's free | 04:51 |
| RB2 | Evening all. I'm trying to fix an issue. I built and installed drivers for my cable tuner card. When I rebooted, X-Windows wan't functioning. So, I booted into Recovery Mode and chose "Fix X-Server". That worked, but now whenever I take a screenshot, my machine locks, When using Compiz (instead of Metacity), I have no window headers, etc. Can you suggest where I start looking short of a full re-install? | 04:52 |
| zelrikriando | leo_rockw, I wish I could...I have had issues with it | 04:52 |
| GrnFraggle | any palm guru's on? | 04:52 |
| G3N0 | zelrikriando: i have flashplugin-nonfree and libflashsupport both installed and its still messing up. | 04:52 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, reinstall them :) if that doesnt work...then I am not sure | 04:52 |
| G3N0 | whats command for that? :) | 04:52 |
| dhenry | DEdwards: success on the other systems? Were there any issues with this system before install Ubuntu? You might have an HDD going bad. | 04:53 |
| G3N0 | sudo apt-get remove? | 04:53 |
| chris127 | i like apt | 04:53 |
| leo_rockw | zelrikriando: the good thing is that I use konqueror and there is no swfdec for konqueror yet, which means I browse the web flash free. if i really want to see the flash things i call iceweasel | 04:53 |
| chris127 | it's like yum | 04:53 |
| chris127 | simple and finds dependancies | 04:53 |
| chris127 | not like slackware | 04:53 |
| leo_rockw | !botsnack | 04:53 |
| chris127 | pkgtool is tough | 04:53 |
| ubottu | Yum! Err, I mean, APT! | 04:53 |
| ApOgEE- | crdlb, xserver-xorg-video-i810 is already the newest version. | 04:53 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, go to your synaptic package manager....it's more well less....command line style | 04:53 |
| snip3r | finished with the zsh installment and got this error: /var/cache/apt/archives/zsh-lovers_0.5-0ubuntu3_all.deb | 04:53 |
| snip3r | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 04:53 |
| chris127 | i like yum too for the hat versions | 04:53 |
| crdlb | ApOgEE-: ok, now set your xorg.conf to use it | 04:53 |
| therealnanotube | mneptok: well, that link that shingen posted is pretty convincing... :) | 04:54 |
| snip3r | anybody knw what it means? | 04:54 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, you might wanna install ubuntu-restricted-extras as well | 04:54 |
| shingen | therealnanotube: I"m not too big a fan of half broken bash scripts though :P | 04:54 |
| G3N0 | zelrikriando: already have it as well D: | 04:54 |
| GrnFraggle | Any Palm guru's on? | 04:54 |
| kc8pxy | chris127: this is more than sorta offtopic, but i left "deadrat" distros long before there was yum. BECAUSE apt made things simpler. | 04:54 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, ok ... | 04:54 |
| knoppix | guys , where is the fonts folder in hardy? (i dont need to install i need to copy with knoppix) | 04:54 |
| G3N0 | zelrikriando: im gonna reinstall and see how that goes... | 04:55 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, yeah.. | 04:55 |
| therealnanotube | shingen: well, that's nothing a bash shebang line won't fix, no? :) | 04:55 |
| snip3r | anybody? | 04:56 |
| therealnanotube | knoppix: probably in "/usr/share/fonts" | 04:56 |
| shingen | therealnanotube: I suppose, but that might be alot more crap editing than I expected, just to fool with a new shell :) | 04:56 |
| DEdwards | dhenry, i suspect the HDD is bad | 04:56 |
| chris127 | kc8pxy, but for servers? i mean, it's hard to beat centos | 04:56 |
| bullgard4 | ThinkPad computers have a test program called 'PC-Doctor for DOS'. You can detect errors by running the diagnostics test included in PC-Doctor. Is there a similar Linux program available? | 04:56 |
| sekyourbox | does anyone know where to get the patch so I can use vmware? | 04:56 |
| chris127 | kc8pxy, a hardened centos is one of the best production servers | 04:56 |
| DEdwards | i added an old 4.3GB hadd for a root partition | 04:56 |
| dhenry | DEdwards: If you're running the Ubuntu live disc, you might try running badblocks and see what it turns up. Might take a long time though. Try here for more help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=695892 | 04:57 |
| chris127 | (shortly followed by debian) | 04:57 |
| zelrikriando | G3N0, make sure you have one flash plugin in firefox , you can check that in about:plugins | 04:57 |
| shingen | sekyourbox: google vmware-any-any and you can find 17d pretty easily | 04:57 |
| GrnFraggle | snip3r try sudo apt-get autoremove then apt-get autoclean. then install what your trying | 04:57 |
| sekyourbox | i use Centos | 04:57 |
| DEdwards | dhenry, in using text installer | 04:57 |
| knoppix | therealnanotube, you are right, do you know if i need "true type" or "type1" (i want to copy to a windows box) | 04:57 |
| therealnanotube | shingen: heh well... i always start my shell scripts with that anyway... so if i do try out zsh, i don't think i'll be running into any problems with the scripts. i feel your pain, though. :) | 04:57 |
| djhash | bullgard4: the link you gave me was not working.. you need to send me a proper link to give you a similiar software in ubuntu | 04:57 |
| therealnanotube | knoppix: well, truetype will definitely work on windows. don't know whether type1 will. why not copy both and try? :) | 04:57 |
| shingen | therealnanotube: I suppose I can write a script which looks at script headers at execution and modifies them prior to... :P | 04:58 |
| knoppix | therealnanotube thank you | 04:58 |
| sekyourbox | what any any patch is the one I need? | 04:58 |
| kc8pxy | chris127: best can be very relative. open chan is not the plae for it, but if you want to tell me why, I'll gladly talk to you in /msg | 04:58 |

| therealnanotube | shingen: or you could just run your scripts with "bash yourscript.sh" ;) | 04:59 |
| GrnFraggle | snip3r did you sudo? | 04:59 |
| dhenry | DEdwards: I think badblocks is still there. Try typing badblocks at the prompt and see if you get a usage message. If so then its installed. You can still run the commands on the last link I sent. | 04:59 |

| dhenry | DEdwards: Is this a flash drive or a spinning platter HDD? You should google installing to a Flash drive as there are some considerations to be aware of. If its a spinning hdd, check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=885862 for some pointers. | 05:08 |
| m_IRC_o | silly noob-question: need to install java, can download file.bin, .rpm.bin, x64.bin and x64.rpm.bin... which one shoul I choose, and how to install it?? | 05:08 |
| shingen | therealnanotube: yah, I've been looking for non-propaganda links too from a bash perspective | 05:08 |
| GrnFraggle | Anyone help with Palm sync? | 05:09 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: what are you trying to do now? | 05:09 |
| puff | I need to wipe a hard drive via USB before returning it (it was replaced under warranty). | 05:09 |
| snip3r | anybody i tried installing zsh and got this error /var/cache/apt/archives/zsh-lovers_0.5-0ubuntu3_all.deb | 05:09 |
| snip3r | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 05:09 |
| GrnFraggle | Can anyone help with Palm sync :) | 05:09 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: trying to figure out wat went rong | 05:09 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: you are installing something else | 05:09 |
| therealnanotube | m_IRC_o: install it from the repos, don't need to download from the web. | 05:09 |
| shingen | snip3r: do you have multiple copies of synaptic package manager or the upgrade manager running? | 05:09 |
| snip3r | shingen: no | 05:10 |
| therealnanotube | shingen: heh, yea, shell propaganda.. what's the world coming to? :) | 05:10 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: you can only run 1 session of apt / synaptic / aptitude / adept / add remove programs at a time | 05:10 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: does that support ntfs file system? | 05:10 |
| shingen | therealnanotube: heh, wasn't that always the case? I seem to recall having very lengthy discussions in my past about ksh vs csh vs tcsh before bash came along | 05:11 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: well before i used he system package to install xchat | 05:11 |
| richiefrich | tico_: if it is in your kernel it does | 05:11 |
| linxuz3r | sup mang | 05:11 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: i was told zsh was better | 05:11 |
| SuperDuperCowCOw | Also, what would be something like AnalogX's netstat live, to monitor bandwidth usage ? | 05:11 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: ok | 05:11 |
| leo_rockw | shingen: add to the confussion that /bin/sh points to dash in ubuntu | 05:11 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: better then> | 05:11 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: anyway I can check?> | 05:11 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: yea, look at "man mkfs.ntfs" for details. | 05:11 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: didn't find java on synaptic :| | 05:11 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: did you close the system package? | 05:11 |
| richiefrich | tico_: sure grep the .config | 05:12 |
| therealnanotube | m_IRC_o: look for package "sun-java" | 05:12 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: yea | 05:12 |
| snip3r | its not open anywhere | 05:12 |
| dhenry | leo_rockw: lol. Dash has bitten me a few times when building things that really want bash but specify /bin/sh | 05:12 |
| snip3r | let me try it again | 05:12 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: nt for man mkfs.ntfs | 05:12 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: looking up... | 05:12 |
| richiefrich | tico_: or if ubuntu has it -> zgrep -i ntfs /proc/config.gz | 05:12 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: where is that? | 05:12 |
| leo_rockw | dhenry: there is even a bug report about that in launchpad, it was a problem for a lot of people when that changed | 05:13 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: no such file | 05:13 |
| rredd4 | can i update my iphone 3g via ubuntu and wine and itunes? | 05:13 |
| _Zeus_ | rredd4: no | 05:13 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: what are you using to install? | 05:13 |
| richiefrich | tico_: then look in /usr/src/linux/.config.old | 05:13 |
| richiefrich | tico_: then look in /usr/src/linux/.config | 05:13 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: clarify what you said? what do you mean "nt for man mkfs.ntfs" ? | 05:13 |
| richiefrich | tico_: or look in /boot/ | 05:13 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: still nothing :| | 05:13 |
| rredd4 | _Zeus_ why not? | 05:13 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: man for that returns nothing | 05:14 |
| _Zeus_ | rredd4: cause stupid apple doesn't support itunes on linux | 05:14 |
| therealnanotube | m_IRC_o: packages sun-java6-jdk, sun-java6-jre, you have to enable "universe" repository | 05:14 |
| RifleEyes | can anyone help with partitions who knows about testdisk? | 05:14 |
| rredd4 | _Zeus_ but itunes is opened via wine | 05:14 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: how about "man mkntfs" | 05:14 |
| dhenry | leo_rockw: I came across that bug report in my hunt for a solution. Now I just move the link to bash whenever I get an error remotely shell related during a build. | 05:14 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: im using the terminal | 05:14 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: looking up again | 05:14 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: aptitude or apt-get? | 05:14 |
| _Zeus_ | rredd4: that doesn't mean it will work with the device | 05:14 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: zsh isnt better thats an opinion | 05:14 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: what command did you use? | 05:15 |
| _Zeus_ | rredd4: go ahead and try, but i'm telling you it won't work | 05:15 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: nothing | 05:15 |
| rredd4 | _Zeus_ probably can't use the latest itunes tho | 05:15 |
| leo_rockw | !better > snip3r | 05:15 |
| ubottu | snip3r, please see my private message | 05:15 |
| rredd4 | _Zeus_ ok, ty | 05:15 |
| _Zeus_ | !itunes | 05:15 |
| ubottu | itunes is not available on Linux, but there are many audio player alternatives (see !players). For Daap clients (sharing music with other iTunes clients on the network), install banshee | 05:15 |
| _Zeus_ | :-D | 05:15 |
| richiefrich | tico_: sudo modprobe -l | grep -i ntfs | 05:15 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: you also have to install package 'ntfsprogs' | 05:15 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: nothing on that too | 05:15 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: aptget | 05:15 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: do you have that one installed? | 05:15 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: sudo apt-get install zsh | 05:16 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: let me check | 05:16 |
| snip3r | ubottu: where is ur message? | 05:16 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: he needs the module 1st, unless it is build in | 05:16 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: that returns something | 05:16 |
| richiefrich | tico_: what | 05:16 |
| csyntax | i download wine and itunes.Does anyone know how to get my iphone to work with itune or does itune will pick up my iphone? | 05:16 |
| richiefrich | tico_: ooh sorry you can check like | 05:16 |
| snip3r | leo_rockw: is zsh worth the installation? | 05:16 |
| richiefrich | tico_: cat /proc/filesystems | grep ntfs | 05:16 |
| leo_rockw | snip3r: I never tried zsh | 05:17 |
| richiefrich | tico_: i forgot that one | 05:17 |
| csyntax | anyone use wine and itunes? | 05:17 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: for some yeah, for some no | 05:17 |
| RifleEyes | can anyone help with partitions who knows about testdisk? | 05:17 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: I get nothing on that | 05:17 |
| richiefrich | csyntax: itunes is horrible | 05:17 |
| therealnanotube | richiefrich: should be on there on a recent ubuntu by default, no? | 05:17 |
| tico_ | richiefrich: /lib/modules/2.6.24-19-generic/kernel/fs/ntfs/ntfs.ko i got that on the other one | 05:17 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: any major differences? | 05:17 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: no clue | 05:17 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: nothing at all, nothing called "sun-java" anywhere... | 05:17 |
| csyntax | richie,I know but i need it to update my cell phone. | 05:17 |
| csyntax | iphone | 05:17 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: sure there is if you use the functionality | 05:17 |
| therealnanotube | m_IRC_o: what version of ubuntu are you running? | 05:18 |
| richiefrich | csyntax: why just unlock it | 05:18 |
| therealnanotube | richiefrich: well, his ntfs.ko listing shows that it's loaded. :) | 05:18 |
| csyntax | what you mean | 05:18 |
| richiefrich | csyntax: why use apple firmare just jailbreak it | 05:18 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: sorry not familiar, functionality? | 05:18 |
| richiefrich | and then you are free | 05:18 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: I need to see if it has it on a boot cd im making | 05:18 |
| csyntax | can you do that in linux | 05:18 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: eeexubuntu 7.10 if I'm not wrong... don't ask me to upgrade coz If I would do so the wifi would stop living :( | 05:19 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: it has better tab completition and some other things but it isnt by default | 05:19 |
| richiefrich | csyntax: google it | 05:19 |
| csyntax | ok | 05:19 |
| snip3r | richiedfrish: so u have to set them up | 05:19 |
| therealnanotube | m_IRC_o: 7.10 is recent enough, it should be there. aha, it's in multiverse, not universe. proof: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/sun-java6-jre :) | 05:19 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: you always do | 05:19 |
| RifleEyes | can anyone help with partitions who knows about testdisk? | 05:20 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: let me find something for you | 05:20 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: ill try it, but if i don't like it what command can i use to remove it | 05:20 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: thanks | 05:20 |
| m_IRC_o | therealnanotube: thanx, which extension to choose? | 05:20 |
| the-erm1 | Has anyone here ever had a problem using ssh over wireless/ | 05:20 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: well, if it's not, that's what you need. ntfsprogs. | 05:20 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: did you try going through the Analyze part of testdisk? | 05:20 |
| therealnanotube | m_IRC_o: what do you mean "which extension" ? | 05:20 |
| rredd4 | csyntax get a windows or mac box for iphone update | 05:21 |
| RifleEyes | djhash! yes, i did. i don't know quite what i found, though. | 05:21 |
| therealnanotube | the-erm1: not me... but i suppose if your connection is crappy, you'd have a problem. | 05:21 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: ok | 05:21 |
| dhenry | the-erml: I haven't had that happen... doing it right now | 05:21 |
| deserteagle | anyone here use hidpoint? | 05:21 |
| dhenry | the-erml: whats the ping time to the server you're connected to? | 05:21 |
| the-erm1 | therealnanotube: I don't think it is, everything else works. | 05:22 |
| puff | My usb enclosure mounted my old drive properly before, now it appears not to: http://pastebin.com/me0d486d | 05:22 |
| === selocol_ is now known as selocol | ||
| therealnanotube | the-erm1: so, what happens if you try wired - do you still have the same problem? or is it exclusive to wireless? | 05:22 |
| puff | I'm only mounting it to overwrite it before sending it back (was replaced under warranty)... | 05:22 |
| deserteagle | no one here has an MX 1000 laser mouse? | 05:22 |
| the-erm1 | dhenry: ping: < 0.239 ms | 05:22 |
| csyntax | you say it will not work with linuix | 05:22 |
| djhash | RifleEyes: msg me in private maybe we can walk through it.. | 05:23 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: i need to figure out how to get that on the boot cd now lol. I just need the boot cd to format a parition and copy files from an iso to it. backup/restore | 05:23 |
| the-erm1 | therealnanotube: actually that's the weird part, wired it connects no problem. wireless it asks for the password, I enter it, and then it sorta sits there. | 05:23 |
| puff | Sigh. | 05:23 |
| the-erm1 | Like it's getting the wrong key. | 05:23 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: are u still looking? | 05:24 |
| pedro | hey anyone know something about desktop cube? im trying to make it as all the 6 sides of the cube are desktops | 05:24 |
| therealnanotube | the-erm1: hrm, weird indeed... can't think of what it could be... could you run "ssh -vvv" for maximum verbosity, maybe the debug messages will be helpful? | 05:25 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: i got it | 05:25 |
| shingen | anyone know about the thinkpad thumbprint reader? I noticed gnome-keyring-manager doesn't acknowledge it | 05:25 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: wat u find? | 05:25 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: why does the partition need to be ntfs, anyway? maybe it would be easier to just use ext3, or fat32? | 05:25 |
| pedro | but if i put 6 desktops, it turns into a hexagon | 05:25 |
| the-erm1 | therealnanotube: I'll try that. | 05:25 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: wget http://infectious.cc/-/zshrc.avi ; mplayer zshrc.avi | 05:25 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: thats my buddies avi on zsh | 05:26 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: its for windows | 05:26 |
| Radikal_Edward | Yo | 05:26 |
| bullgard4 | ThinkPad computers have a test program called 'PC-Doctor for DOS'. You can detect errors by running the diagnostics test included in PC-Doctor. Is there a similar Linux program available? | 05:26 |
| tico_ | therealnanotube: its for someone whos just starting off with computers in a diff. country, and if somethings messes up I want them to be able to restore it by just putting in one cd | 05:26 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: thanks and i can find zsh here? | 05:27 |
| shingen | wtf does bullgard4 repeat the same question every 10 to 15 minutes? :P | 05:27 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: i should be fast i have a great connection | 05:27 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: no it is a video about it | 05:27 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: shows what there is you can do | 05:27 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: so try fat32 - windows should have no problems with it? | 05:27 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: o | 05:27 |
| therealnanotube | tico_: unfortunately i don't know how to make a custom livecd, so i'm suggesting what i know. :) i'm sure it's possible to include ntfsprogs in there, i just don't know how. | 05:28 |
| jimjam | I'm having trouble getting Flash to work... which is odd because I've installed it no problems on previous systems. | 05:28 |
| dhenry | bullgard4: I'm not familiar with what PC Doctor can do. What specifically does it check? | 05:28 |
| richiefrich | jimjam: 64bit? | 05:28 |
| jimjam | richiefrich: no, 32bit | 05:28 |
| jimjam | I've tried flashplugin-nonfree, I've tried ubuntu-restricted-extras | 05:28 |
| richiefrich | jimjam: just get it from adobe | 05:28 |
| richiefrich | it is one file | 05:29 |

| snip3r | richiefrich: the video it was about terminal commands? | 05:30 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: it is about zsh | 05:30 |

| leo_rockw | snip3r: bash is the default one in pretty much all the gnu/linux distros | 05:31 |
| richiefrich | zsh is supierior for some if you use it right | 05:32 |
| richiefrich | but i still like bash | 05:32 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: did you mean zfs? | 05:32 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: or no | 05:32 |
| snip3r | no | 05:32 |
| richiefrich | ok | 05:32 |
| snip3r | zsh | 05:32 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: thats one of my sites | 05:32 |

| richiefrich | JimmyB_: you dont add and ip address unless you mean route? | 05:34 |
| puff | leo_rockw: Yeah, it says | 05:34 |
| richiefrich | JimmyB_: you wanna add a route | 05:35 |
| richiefrich | JimmyB_: or a another interface>? | 05:35 |
| puff | leo_rockw: "can't set config #1, error -110". http://pastebin.com/me0d486d | 05:35 |
| richiefrich | like link them | 05:35 |
| snip3r | therealnanotube: well i knw so much | 05:35 |
| richiefrich | err bridge them | 05:35 |
| JimmyB_ | i have 1 interface that will use two ip addresses and two gateways.. | 05:35 |
| therealnanotube | JimmyB_: to add a gateway, look at command "route" | 05:35 |
| jimjam | richiefrich, therealnanotube: You guys are amazing! Thanks! | 05:35 |
| JimmyB_ | i have the first setup, how do i add the second ones? | 05:35 |
| therealnanotube | JimmyB_: "man route" for details | 05:35 |

| richiefrich | JimmyB_: i knows in gentoo not in unbuntu | 05:36 |
| jakah | please help me | 05:36 |
| therealnanotube | JimmyB_: something like "route add gw yourgateway" should do it, but read man page to make sure | 05:36 |
| spanther | which programming language do i have to learn and which tools to use that i can write applications/software for free at linux for linux? :) | 05:36 |
| jakah | how to change ident | 05:36 |
| jakah | ? | 05:36 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: you cant change it | 05:36 |
| jakah | xchat | 05:36 |
| therealnanotube | jimjam: enjoy :) | 05:36 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: you can del sda2 and make a single part | 05:36 |
| Starnestommy | jakah: try asking in #xchat | 05:36 |
| dhenry | redrobin: the partition number is determined by your partition table | 05:36 |
| snip3r | when i do autoclean i get | 05:36 |
| leo_rockw | puff: google will know more about that than me | 05:36 |

| richiefrich | snip3r: your not root | 05:37 |
| therealnanotube | richiefrich: i think route should be in gentoo as well. it's a standard linux/bsd command. :) | 05:37 |
| puff | leo_rockw: Unfortunately, google doesn't seem to know much abou tit. | 05:37 |
| shingen | redrobin: this isn't for the faint of heart, but you can change the pointer of the sector for sda1 to start/end where sda2 start/ends and vice versa... I've done it, but not in linux before | 05:37 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: sudo -H -i | 05:37 |
| puff | leo_rockw: Or I wouldn't be asknig here :-) | 05:37 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: no i meant in the configs i can set it | 05:37 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: I am willing to delete all other partitions except that one | 05:37 |
| therealnanotube | richiefrich: ah yea, the configs are prob all in different places. :) | 05:37 |
| leo_rockw | puff: then you're better off asking the channel, I have no idea what to do to solve that problem, sorry | 05:38 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: wat can i change to be root | 05:38 |
| Starnestommy | snip3r: put sudo before the command | 05:38 |
| favro | !root | 05:38 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 05:38 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: simple question. why? there are few advantages to doing it. | 05:38 |
| puff | leo_rockw: Thanks anyway. | 05:38 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: like routes_bond0=("default via 192.168.55.2 via 192.168.1.2") | 05:38 |
| shingen | sudo passwd allows you to set your root password | 05:38 |
| snip3r | o | 05:38 |
| alistair_ | Help: Heron was working on another PC fine. I changed the memory, and now it comes up with screen abherations. Memory tests OK and if I boot the Live CD that comes up OK too as long as I select F4 VGA option. Please advise? | 05:38 |
| shingen | sudo so you can su afterwards | 05:38 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: you can just do that with route or if you can idk how | 05:38 |
| shingen | or you can always sudo su :P | 05:39 |
| Starnestommy | shingen: that's strongly not recommended | 05:39 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: i know from a config :Pp | 05:39 |
| kindofabuzz | better off just sudo su | 05:39 |
| therealnanotube | richiefrich: yea, all that's "really" done with 'route' in the backend. :) | 05:39 |
| Starnestommy | or sudo -i | 05:39 |
| richiefrich | sudo /bin/bash | 05:39 |
| redrobin | kc8pxy: I need to make windows sda1 and ubuntu sdb2 not vice versa as it is now. I am willing to re-install ubuntu if I have to | 05:39 |
| leo_rockw | shingen: I was told sudo -i is better, and it makes sense | 05:39 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: worked no error | 05:39 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: yeah i know but i have no clue myself | 05:39 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: why is that required? | 05:40 |
| hyperair | hello there. has anyone managed to get iwlwifi working for the intel 5100wifi card? | 05:40 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: i can add one thats all not multipule | 05:40 |
| alistair_ | Help: I guess a better way to pose the question is how do I force it to run VGA mode? | 05:40 |
| richiefrich | snip3r: :D | 05:40 |
| shingen | Starnestommy: it just depends on how security conscious you are when choosing your passwords... mine are all 12+ characters, with alpha upper/lower, numeric & symbols in it | 05:40 |
| redrobin | kc8pxy: It's a complicated reason. Is it possible? | 05:40 |
| * richiefrich and to think i was getting yelled at eariler for helping ppl, seems you all like my help now | 05:40 | |
| richiefrich | redrobin: what you trying to do | 05:41 |
| Kohlrak | wow, a really bad time to enter tis room | 05:41 |
| snip3r | richiefrich: indeed | 05:41 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: windows is on sda2? and you want it on sda1? | 05:41 |
| snip3r | im done | 05:41 |
| spanther | Kohlrak: why? | 05:41 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: it's possible, but it's delicate, and risky, so finding someone with the exp to guide yu is gonna be tough. | 05:41 |
| Kohlrak | spanther: seems to be anger... | 05:42 |
| spanther | ah | 05:42 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: ? | 05:42 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: I am trying to make my windows partition from sdb2 to sdb1. It is the only partition on the hard drive but it still shows up as sdb2. | 05:42 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: why though grub ca boot it form any one | 05:42 |
| therealnanotube | alistair_: well, you could boot into safe mode, and then put driver=vesa in xorg.conf... | 05:42 |
| richiefrich | windows doesnt have to be on the 1st partition | 05:43 |
| richiefrich | you do know that ? | 05:43 |
| === hwdyki_ is now known as hwdyki | ||
| Kohlrak | redrobin: windows and linux don't don't have a common file system. Use one and it'll break the other. | 05:43 |
| hwdyki | how do i convert an flv file to 3gp? i get Unknown codec 'aac' when i run ffmpeg -i 1.flv -s 176x144 -vcodec h263 -r 28 -b 96k -ab 64 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 44100 1.3gp | 05:43 |
| the_other_brand | hey all, im on 8.04 and i just got an amd radeon 4870, tried a fresh install, compile from source, and a .deb, everything doesnt work (black screen but vsync signal sent to screen). Anyone have an idea? | 05:43 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: if there is another reason please tell me | 05:43 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: yes I know how to do that, but I need to change it to sdb1 for a reason that is hard to explain. Is this possible? | 05:44 |
| richiefrich | hwdyki: http://blog.fakap.net/mp3toflv/flvto3gp.sh | 05:44 |
| redrobin | sda1 I mean | 05:44 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: i agree with richiefrich. worst case, is you change your master/slave jumpers, and make is sda2 and sdb1 :) | 05:44 |
| Kohlrak | redrobin: it's posible, but it would require changes that might not be quite legal | 05:44 |
| rubydiamond | Hi ppl | 05:44 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: sure you can boot to a love cd and use dd | 05:44 |
| richiefrich | live* | 05:44 |
| Yasumoto | hey guys, can brasero really burn .avi or .mpg files to a DVD that I can play in a DVD player/TV? | 05:44 |
| redrobin | Richefrich: what's dd? | 05:45 |
| richiefrich | Kohlrak: i hope sda1 is as big as sda2 | 05:45 |
| zSoilworker | Yasumoto: really, really. | 05:45 |
| therealnanotube | hwdyki: use libfaac instead of 'aac' for the -acodec argument. | 05:45 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: it copies bit by bit | 05:45 |
| Yasumoto | zSoilworker: dude, sweet. thanks :) | 05:45 |
| richiefrich | therealnanotube: or the script i posted | 05:45 |
| Kohlrak | richiefrich: i think he's trying to merge the partitions, but that wuold take alot of work, maybe even by hand... | 05:45 |
| richiefrich | :P | 05:45 |
| JulioNeto | folks, I'm trying recode some video tutorial about GIMP here. What programs could I use to do that? | 05:45 |
| dhenry | redrobin: If you really want to play with fire (strong possibility of losing data!!!) you need to fire up fdisk. Write down the start and size of the second partition. Then delete the partition and recreate it with the exact same start and size numbers, but as the first partition. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS!!! BACK UP ALL DATA AND BE PREPARED TO REINSTALL WINDOWS. | 05:45 |
| Dillo_of_Faeo | in VLC or MoviePlayer, is there a way to select which codec pack to use? | 05:46 |
| richiefrich | Kohlrak: the way i understand it he wants to move sda2 to sda2 and install linux on sda2 | 05:46 |
| richiefrich | Kohlrak: i could be wrong | 05:46 |
| seb90210 | hi room | 05:46 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: does sdb2 take up the whole drive? | 05:46 |
| blane | hello and good nite (been a long day to get to this point) | 05:46 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: how could it | 05:46 |
| richiefrich | it is sda2 | 05:46 |
| hiptobecubic | why do you want to change your partition order | 05:46 |
| therealnanotube | richiefrich: well, acodec mp3 works too (from your script). either way :) | 05:46 |
| richiefrich | :P | 05:46 |
| Kohlrak | richiefrich: aw heck, why not just do some fancy renaming then? however even that is kinda dangerous... | 05:46 |
| amenado | what is the name of today Security update for the kernel? | 05:46 |
| richiefrich | Kohlrak: dd would work | 05:47 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: ?? | 05:47 |
| seb90210 | question: how to solve the pulseaudio single sound at a time issue and why is it there in the 1st place | 05:47 |
| redrobin | kc8pxy: yes it takes up the whole drive except for some unallocated space at the end. Would it help if I got rid of this unallocated space? | 05:47 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: kc8pxy> redrobin: does sdb2 take up the whole drive?...... how could it | 05:47 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: DOH. | 05:47 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: if he has two partitioins it CANT | 05:47 |
| richiefrich | gah | 05:47 |
| richiefrich | thin k about it | 05:47 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: DOH. | 05:47 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: well you asked it | 05:48 |
| richiefrich | :D | 05:48 |
| konstanty | question: how do I increase the maximum volume in hardy? It is much quieter than it was in windows. | 05:48 |
| therealnanotube | amenado: linux-image-somethingorother... | 05:48 |
| danielm_mc | anyone ever get this error when installed pdt : Cannot complete the request. See the details. | 05:48 |
| danielm_mc | Cannot find a solution satisfying the following requirements Match[requiredCapability: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.wst.web_ui.feature.feature.group/[3.0.1.v200807220139-7R0ELZE8Ks-y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF,3.0.1.v200807220139-7R0ELZE8Ks-y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF]]. | 05:48 |
| Kohlrak | konstantly, check the top right hand corner for a speaker | 05:48 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: how much free space is on that drive? i mean, how much non-file space inside the partition? | 05:48 |
| ghindo | Is there a way I can determine my MAC address through the command line? | 05:48 |
| danielm_mc | even after you install the all of the WST and WTP :-P | 05:48 |
| kc8pxy | aka, is it more than half empt? | 05:48 |
| amenado | people do not forget to do a security update... | 05:49 |
| therealnanotube | konstanty: double-click the volume icon to get into the detailed settings, and see if it's maxed out where you want it. | 05:49 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: i still would like to understand what your trying to do | 05:49 |
| danielm_mc | ghindo : ifconfig | 05:49 |
| redrobin | kc8pxy: about 20 gig. It'l less than half empty | 05:49 |
| amenado | therealnanotube-> okay, i think see that now.. | 05:49 |
| ghindo | danielm_mc: Cool, thank you | 05:49 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: how big is sda1 | 05:49 |
| Kohlrak | amenado: i just checked for updates, but i didn't see anything. | 05:49 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: how big is sda2 | 05:49 |
| Dillo_of_Faeo | how would I go about debugging a video playback error on my system? | 05:49 |
| danielm_mc | eclipse help - need it. | 05:49 |
| richiefrich | df -lha | 05:49 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: do you see where I'm headed? | 05:49 |
| therealnanotube | amenado: cool :) | 05:49 |
| seb90210 | getting rid of stupid pulseaudio wants to remove gnome too !?!? | 05:50 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: nope .. not until he tells me how big each is | 05:50 |
| amenado | Kohlrak-> a blurb i read, says it affect even version as far back as 6.06 | 05:50 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: what's wrong with eclipse? | 05:50 |
| redrobin | richiefrich:there is no sda1, sda2 is 40GB, unallocated space is 30 GB | 05:50 |
| dhenry | JulioNeto: I found a couple different solutions to this a year or so ago. None were perfect but they did work. One recorded to a VNC type format that required a special player. There was an application to turn the VNC into a flash video. | 05:50 |
| alistair_ | therealnanotube, thanks, to boot safe I press [Esc] right then select safe option? | 05:50 |
| the_other_brand | hey all, im on 8.04 and i just got an amd radeon 4870, tried a fresh install, compile from source, and a .deb, everything doesnt work (black screen but vsync signal sent to screen). Anyone have an idea? | 05:50 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: heh so dd it ... | 05:50 |
| Kohlrak | amenado: shouldn't i see it as an update in the update manger though? | 05:50 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak - installed ganymede today and trying to get the php plugin installed (PDT) - have all of the rquired packages installed, but i keep getting this error message Cannot complete the request. See the details. | 05:50 |
| danielm_mc | Cannot find a solution satisfying the following requirements Match[requiredCapability: org.eclipse.equinox.p2.iu/org.eclipse.wst.web_ui.feature.feature.group/[3.0.1.v200807220139-7R0ELZE8Ks-y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF,3.0.1.v200807220139-7R0ELZE8Ks-y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF]]. | 05:50 |
| therealnanotube | alistair_: yea, press esc to enter grub menu, choose safe mode | 05:51 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: i assume sda2 is windows? how much room does windows say is free on sda2? | 05:51 |
| JulioNeto | dhenry, I was reading about it :D | 05:51 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: i have no idea how he did what he did but thats funn7 | 05:51 |
| richiefrich | funy | 05:51 |
| therealnanotube | Kohlrak: yes, yous hould... i run feisty, and i got it today. | 05:51 |
| amenado | Kohlrak-> you should, its a kernel | 05:51 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: It means it isn't installed. | 05:51 |
| spanther | amenado: still feisty o.o | 05:51 |
| Kohlrak | amenado: lemme check synaptic | 05:51 |
| alistair_ | therealnanotube, any change of giving me the cmd to edit conf file from boot line? Ill write it down then go do it if possible | 05:51 |
| redrobin | kc8pxy: It is almost full. Is it possible to rename it to sda1? | 05:51 |
| spanther | amenado: do you still get updates for feisty? Oo | 05:51 |
| * richiefrich thinks sda1 isnt needed it is no big deal | 05:51 | |
| dhenry | JulioNeto: Good. I think that was the solution I eventually went with. Audio synchronization was a problem and I think I ended up using a different program then merging them later. It was kinda klutzy. | 05:52 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: im still not understand why he cares | 05:52 |
| amenado | spanther-> i dont know, if repository still updates those | 05:52 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: maybe one day | 05:52 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak yes, one would think that however it is intalled : root@baikinman:/home/danielm/workspace/.metadata# locate y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF | 05:52 |
| danielm_mc | /usr/lib/eclipse/features/org.eclipse.wst.web_ui.feature.source_3.0.1.v200807220139-7R0ELZE8Ks-y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF | 05:52 |
| danielm_mc | /usr/lib/eclipse/features/org.eclipse.wst.web_ui.feature_3.0.1.v200807220139-7R0ELZE8Ks-y8HYiQrw5ftEC3UBF | 05:52 |
| JulioNeto | I'm trying use 2 programs till now: Xvidcap and Istanbul. But both have one big problem. When I select the wish screen part it close =/ | 05:52 |
| seb90210 | < cannot play audio from multiple sources simultaneously, pulseaudio to blame, any ideas hot to fix (i've heard many ppl have this problem) | 05:52 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: i agree at your bewilderment. | 05:52 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: sorry man. It's because of a windows boot/grub problem with some stuff | 05:52 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: yeah sda1 2 3 4 6 doesnt matter | 05:52 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: i need numbers. how many gb free. | 05:52 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: then you have grub wrong | 05:53 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: grub can boot windoes on any part | 05:53 |
| redrobin | kc8pxy: sda2 has about 10 gigs free | 05:53 |
| Kohlrak | what's the current version? | 05:53 |
| danielm_mc | what do you mean? | 05:53 |
| therealnanotube | alistair_: hey, actually.. you could have it easier, i think. from the grub screen, you can edit the boot options directly, and add 'vga=771' to boot into vga mode. see here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 05:53 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: then you CAN switch it.. but the edge of it might be a little weird. | 05:54 |
| therealnanotube | alistair_: that one should walk you through it step by step. | 05:54 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak what current version ? | 05:54 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: I don't want grub. I just want windows to boot without grub popping up. | 05:54 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: kernel | 05:54 |
| seb90210 | JulioNeto there's recordmydesktop package | 05:54 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak 2.6.24-19-generic | 05:54 |
| JulioNeto | seb90210, but it recode all screen... I would like (and would be better) recode only a part of it. | 05:54 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: so this is all a "i hate grub" issue? | 05:55 |
| JulioNeto | like Xvidcap and Istanbul does | 05:55 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: then reinstall windows | 05:55 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: gah | 05:55 |
| seb90210 | o | 05:55 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: looks like you hit the nail on the head | 05:55 |
| Jordan_U | redrobin: What problem are you having? | 05:55 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: that's really odd.. i have 2.6.24.16.18 | 05:55 |
| dhenry | redrobin: You need to boot with the windows disk and start the recovery console. Run fixmbr http://amazingrando.wordpress.com/2007/04/05/fixmbr-is-your-friend/ You won't be able to boot into anything else after doing that. | 05:56 |
| seb90210 | JulioNeto you can zoom in w/ compiz and do it | 05:56 |
| redrobin | kc8py: I don't want to reinstall windows because I would lose my data then. I want to have ubuntu installed on my computer with windows, but only boot ubuntu using grub on a memory key. I want windows to boot up automatically when I turn on my computer | 05:56 |
| bullgard4 | dhenry: http://www.anotherworld.eu.org/docs/thinkpad_manual_t40-41-42p.pdf | 05:56 |
| alistair_ | therealnanotube, thanks that sounds like me | 05:56 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: my idea was a gradual file trans, using a sysrescuecd(gentoo-based livecd that i have yet to find an issue i can't fix with it), and gparted(on the cd). | 05:56 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak you have ganymede running pdt ? | 05:57 |
| JulioNeto | seb90210, ¬¬ HAHAHAHA thank you man, but I don't have a graphic card good enogh to compiz | 05:57 |
| JulioNeto | =/ | 05:57 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: not that i know of =p | 05:57 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: ahh i see i think he could just install ubnutu and resize windows and then boot to windows by default and change the time=0 in grub.conf | 05:57 |
| seb90210 | yeah, it wasnt an elegant solution | 05:57 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: but what do i know | 05:57 |
| grumpy | have any of you actually had day to day experience using the h470b printer from HP? | 05:57 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak - haha, you need to update your kernel, huh ? | 05:58 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: i guess so, but it says it's up to date for some reaon... | 05:58 |
| alistair_ | therealnanotube, what dir is xorg.conf in anyway pse? | 05:58 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: how do I do all that? | 05:58 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: IIRC, your solution is this simple. boot windows, and run chkdsk /mbr | 05:58 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: you boot to the liveCD.. install ubuntu it will ask you to resize windows if you want and then you change the size to how you want it and then let it work | 05:59 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: i just did it on my bosses vita box | 05:59 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: it works i was amazed | 05:59 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: but then ubuntu puts grub on my hard drive and that's not what I want | 05:59 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: so you dont want to install ubuntu at all ? | 06:00 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: im again lost | 06:00 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: why ubuntu w/o grub? | 06:00 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: how do you have grub on there now | 06:00 |
| danielm_mc | kohlrak guess you have no idea about the eclipse problem then huh | 06:00 |
| richiefrich | if you have no linux | 06:00 |
| richiefrich | im totally loost | 06:00 |
| richiefrich | lost | 06:00 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: whats he have now windows and grub? | 06:01 |
| spanther | redrobin: whats the problem with grub :) | 06:01 |
| Melancholia | any Stardict users here? | 06:01 |
| danielm_mc | does anyone know where to get eclipse help from? | 06:01 |
| Kohlrak | danielm_mc: nope... Are you running standard eclipse package? | 06:01 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: not sure yet. | 06:01 |
| richiefrich | windows is obsolete | 06:01 |
| leo_rockw | danielm_mc: i'm gessing there's #eclipse | 06:01 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: yes I want ubuntu. Here is the configuration I want. I want a dual boot with windows and ubuntu. When I switch the computer on, I want it to boot straight into windows. The only way I want to be able to boot ubuntu is if I run grub off my super grub cd. | 06:01 |
| richiefrich | move on | 06:01 |
| seb90210 | rich its so true | 06:02 |
| danielm_mc | redrobin thats not the best configuration, vmware server = windows on linux | 06:02 |
| dhenry | bullgard4: rebooting and selecting the memtest86 option in grub will test you RAM fairly well. fsck and badblocks should take care of your file systems and hdd. | 06:02 |
| leo_rockw | redrobin: no, you can have grub in mbr and make it boot to windows | 06:02 |
| danielm_mc | redrobin dual booting with dual partitions is so 1992 | 06:02 |
| barbara | anyone if there is a photoshop chan? | 06:02 |
| Jordan_U | redrobin: You can choose not to install Grub from the installer, it's under "advanced" | 06:02 |
| texas_ | hey hows it goin yall | 06:02 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: why the super secert grub thing? | 06:02 |
| kc8pxy | redrobin: ok.. why don't you want grub booting the computer? you could have it on a one-second delay, and only if you catch it RIGHT at boot, would it go to ubuntu, at your say so. | 06:03 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: why noot make a dual boot like normal ppl? | 06:03 |
| robert1 | hello every body | 06:03 |
| Kohlrak | wow, apparently alot of hte servers for updates and stuff weren't selected... that's why i couldn't update | 06:03 |
| bullgard4 | dhenry: This is not the functionaliy of PC-Doctor. It may be only part of it. | 06:03 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: i know it isnt his and the person would kill him if he installed linux | 06:03 |
| dhenry | bullgard4: I'm not aware of a comprehensive suite similar to PC Doctor, but the pieces are there. | 06:03 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: it's a complicated reason | 06:03 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: i bet thats it | 06:03 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: can it be done? | 06:03 |
| danielm_mc | freaking NO ONE is responding in eclipse ; how whack | 06:03 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: not your pc | 06:03 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: my conclusion also. | 06:03 |
| dhenry | bullgard4: Is there a specific problem you were having? | 06:03 |
| djhash | bullgard4: "sudo apt-get install hwtest hwtest-cli" then you'll find it in system->administration | 06:03 |
| seb90210 | anyone has luck (intelligence) on how to fix pulseaudio to play multiple sources simultaneously? | 06:03 |
| texas_ | richiefrich: i dont dual boot, am i not normal? | 06:03 |
| texas_ | seb, i use alsa | 06:04 |
| Jordan_U | danielm_mc: What problem are you having with eclipse? | 06:04 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: sure it can but thats dumb .. and i have no idea howto install the windows boot loader .. unles you install ubuntu 1st then windows | 06:04 |
| redrobin | richiefrich: it's mine. It's a really complicated reason. | 06:04 |
| leo_rockw | danielm_mc: most channels aren't as populated as #ubuntu, leave your question there and wait... probably 3 hours, then you are allowed to rant | 06:04 |
| texas_ | pulse audio wouldn't work for me neither, so i got a fix for using alsa | 06:04 |
| richiefrich | texas_: no your not, but are any of us | 06:04 |
| richiefrich | :D | 06:04 |
| Jordan_U | seb90210: I am guessing that it's just a flash problem | 06:04 |
| redrobin | ok, thanks for your help guys | 06:04 |
| richiefrich | redrobin: thats the only way i know | 06:04 |
| Kohlrak | redrobin: the problem is that windows is really not going to like the journalizing disk system IIRC | 06:04 |
| * m_IRC_o fall asleep on the keyb########################################## | 06:05 | |
| seb90210 | texas i reconfed the settings to use alsa, top says pulse still running i guess it needs a reboot (yuck, so windows) | 06:05 |
| bombshelter13 | Which is easier, on a system that was only installed a day or two ago and thus doesn't have huge piles of critical data or stuff to back up: removing Gnome from a Ubuntu Desktop install, or fragging the thing and reinstalling from the Ubuntu Server disk? | 06:05 |
| rebel_kid | how can i find my network address in ubuntu like the ip of my router and then the address it assigns me | 06:05 |
| richiefrich | well night gents | 06:05 |
| csa3d | how can I remove a loaded environment variable w/o rebooting? | 06:05 |
| robert1 | i have a asus f6a i try to install a dualboot (vista + ubuntu) system. ubuntu works fine, but as soon as i try to boot vista, in runs in recovery mode and deletes the mbr and the linux partitions | 06:05 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: have fun! | 06:05 |
| spanther | which programming language do i have to learn and which tools to use that i can write applications/software for free at linux for linux? :) | 06:05 |
| leo_rockw | rebel_kid: ifconfig | 06:05 |
| richiefrich | kc8pxy: night | 06:05 |
| tenbytes | how do i store the grep results into a file | 06:05 |
| kc8pxy | richiefrich: night. | 06:05 |
| robert1 | does any body know how i can fix this? | 06:05 |
| texas_ | c# i believe | 06:05 |
| Kohlrak | spanther: any programming language, however mostly C is used it seems. | 06:05 |
| leo_rockw | spanther: any language | 06:05 |
| danielm_mc | leo_rockw : yeah 142 members all idle | 06:05 |
| eTiger13 | is there a decent image editing/drawing program similiar to paint.net? and no gimp cuz it sucks | 06:05 |
| richiefrich | robert1: throw a rock at it! | 06:05 |
| francois | can someone please tell me how to find a keycode? | 06:05 |
| m_IRC_o | ...it's 7 in the morninf here, I forgot to sleep tonight °_° | 06:05 |
| seb90210 | no probs w/ flash, just say youre listening to music and want to play some game, the last one will have audio disabled | 06:05 |
| * richiefrich wonders off | 06:05 | |
| francois | xev isn't working | 06:05 |
| leo_rockw | danielm_mc: it's late at night, people need to sleep | 06:06 |
| Jordan_U | bombshelter13: Probably installing ubuntu server | 06:06 |
| texas_ | seb90210, download and install alsa, it fixes it | 06:06 |
| bombshelter13 | Jordan_U: Hm, mm'kay, seemed like that might be the case. | 06:06 |
| spanther | okay which GUI software for linux uses C ? (editor with issue checks) | 06:06 |
| blake_ | sup | 06:06 |
| texas_ | spanther, google is your friend | 06:06 |
| Kohlrak | spanther: gui can be used with any programming language. However, ASM can access any programming language's resorces ;) | 06:06 |
| seb90210 | texas thanx | 06:06 |
| csa3d | tenbytes: add a "> out.txt" without quotes after the grep line | 06:07 |
| csa3d | then cat out.txt | 06:07 |
| blake_ | wow, what a bunch of losers in here | 06:07 |
| bullgard4 | dhenry: Yes. I would like to get into operation the 4 special keys 'AccessIBM' and 3 others (volume related). Ubuntu provides a DEB program package 'tpb' for it. But installing tpb requires me to deinstall all other key combinations and the DEB program package 'ubuntu-desktop'. Synaptics discourages de-installing ubuntu-desktop. So I am in a dilemma. | 06:07 |
| blake_ | only a loser would use linux i think | 06:07 |
| Blank101 | im having trouble compiling aircrack-ng on ubuntu 8.04 | 06:07 |
| spanther | Kohlrak: well for real i just need a name of an powerful editor to write code hehe :) | 06:07 |
| leo_rockw | spanther: what kind of application do you have in mind? | 06:07 |
| texas_ | seb90210, when you install alsa, unless it's already installed, just got to your sound prefs, and choose alsa | 06:07 |

| spanther | leo_rockw: nah not just a text editor i mean something which can analyze the code and check for possible errors (typos or something not working) so that i can learn it and prevent bad code :) | 06:10 |
| dhenry | bullgard4: I don't have an IBM thinkpad so I'm afraid I can't help you out much there. Furthermore, the package dependency sounds very weird and slightly suspicious. Anyone else want to chime in? | 06:10 |

| rebel_kid | djhash: its connecting, taking forever | 06:32 |
| bazhang | CyberWolf, have you asked in #winehq yet? | 06:33 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: ok.. change 5900 to 5800 | 06:33 |
| CyberWolf | yes....they helped with my video issues but refered me here for mouse issues | 06:33 |
| sekyourbox | cant be root in ubuntu? | 06:33 |
| bazhang | sudo sekyourbox | 06:34 |
| rebel_kid | djhash: just letting ya know i got somebody that can edit settings on the remote | 06:34 |
| bazhang | !sudo | sekyourbox | 06:34 |
| ubottu | sekyourbox: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 06:34 |
| leo_rockw | sekyourbox: yes you can | 06:34 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: are the two computers in the same network or are you accessing through internet? | 06:34 |
| rebel_kid | sekyourbox: yes and no, u cant log in as root but u can use sudo or sudo su | 06:34 |
| sekyourbox | U know that, but i want to use su. | 06:34 |
| rebel_kid | djhash: internet | 06:34 |
| sekyourbox | i* | 06:34 |
| CyberWolf | so yeah i dunno what to do | 06:34 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: is the remote computer behind a router? | 06:34 |
| bazhang | sekyourbox, sudo , but if you must then sudo -i | 06:34 |
| rebel_kid | djhash: pretty sure the setup is dsl router -> wireless router -> computer (wired) | 06:35 |
| seb90210 | anyhow this whole pulseaudio thing in ubuntu was a serious error to an otherwise nice distro, akin to maybe halving your network speed or displaying 1/2 of the desktop....playing 1 audio source at a time plz...what morons thought this was good | 06:36 |
| sekyourbox | I get this... | 06:36 |
| sekyourbox | Unable to open the installer database /etc/vmware/locations in read-mode. | 06:36 |
| sekyourbox | Execution aborted. | 06:36 |
| CyberWolf | should i seek elswhere for help? | 06:36 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: you need to forward port 5900 in the router | 06:36 |
| sekyourbox | should I change /etc/vmware/locations with execute priveledges? chmod or whatever | 06:37 |
| rebel_kid | djhash: ok how? | 06:37 |
| mysteriousways__ | I have ubutun installed on my laptop, and during the boot the screen remain black until the X start with the login screen, what I need to do to see all the kernel menssages at the boot ? | 06:37 |
| === francois is now known as barqs | ||
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: ctrl+alt+f8 | 06:37 |
| barqs | okay as i was saying, how do I find keycodes for my next track button? it doesn't showup in xev. | 06:37 |
| sekyourbox | ? | 06:38 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: every router is different.. but usually you use te browser to access the router's IP address, then there should be a section there to do port forwarding. just do a google search on the model of the router or if the manual is handy, it'll show you how. | 06:38 |
| PauloRicardo | One last try... Anyone know where are saved my NTP servers list? I tried to find with grep command but it tooked many hours with no results nor end. =/ | 06:38 |
| rebel_kid | djhash: thanks so much, once i do that its just ip:port in the vnc viewer? | 06:39 |
| CyberWolf | so anyone know how to fix mouse lag with WoW? | 06:39 |
| mysteriousways__ | leo_rockw, during the boot process I mean. I think it is something to do with the grub conf | 06:39 |
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: yeah, during the boot process | 06:39 |
| barqs | Can someone please help me? I've been at this for hours. | 06:39 |
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: if you want to read that now do dmesg | 06:40 |
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: but ctrl+alt+f8 will show you scrolling messages | 06:40 |
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: or Fx for x != 7 | 06:40 |
| barqs | Anyone have a clue how to get keycodes? | 06:41 |
| sekyourbox | barqs: did you try apt-get keycodes ;) | 06:41 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: here are a few pointers:- if you didnt change the port number, then you dont need to add port.. second.. in ubuntu it would be ip::port there are 2 : ... if you are running multiple X-sessions, then you'd do ip:displaynum:port (eg. 123.456.789.123:0:5900)... | 06:41 |
| amirman | what is the edubuntu channel? i can't seem to join #edubuntu | 06:42 |
| barqs | sekyourbox: it's not a program. It's the code that a button sends the computer when it's hit. | 06:42 |
| amirman | nevermind | 06:42 |
| mysteriousways__ | tks leo_rockw ... and using grub, what can edit to make it show by default, with out the need to type control alt F8 ? | 06:42 |
| rebel_kid | djhash: thanks so much | 06:42 |
| sekyourbox | just a bad joke | 06:42 |
| psychoman | hi, how can I be in root | 06:42 |
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: take the "quiet" out of the equation | 06:42 |
| barqs | sekyourbox: Oh, sorry lol. | 06:42 |
| sekyourbox | psychoman, i just asked that, scroll up | 06:43 |
| leo_rockw | mysteriousways__: and maybe smth else... usplash maybe? i'm not on ubuntu atm | 06:43 |
| psychoman | I've just entred here | 06:43 |
| leo_rockw | barqs: xev | 06:44 |
| bazhang | !sudo | psychoman | 06:44 |
| ubottu | psychoman: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 06:44 |
| sekyourbox | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 06:44 |
| bazhang | psychoman, use sudo | 06:44 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: also, make sure you have setup a password in the remote machine... i belive a blank password would deny any connections.. also check the settings in system->preferences->remote desktop.. make sure in General, at least the first two check boxes are checked, and in advanced the first check box is unchecked.. | 06:44 |
| barqs | leo_rockw: I've tried xev, it's giving me the wrong keycodes | 06:44 |
| sekyourbox | !root | 06:44 |
| psychoman | ok tnx | 06:44 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 06:44 |
| djhash | rebel_kid: good luck | 06:44 |
| jayde_drag0n | hey i just hosed my GRUB because i had to install stupid windows for school.. can someone please walk me thru? I'm apparantly inept at following directions since i've done it twice with no results except windows loading | 06:45 |

| sekyourbox | how do you close a window in irssi? | 06:46 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: yah i've done that.. TWICE | 06:46 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: like i said it's STILL booting to windows.. no grub | 06:46 |
| rebel_kid | sekyourbos: you mean u want to close a connection to one channel but not the rest? | 06:47 |
| seb90210 | grub appears to be a common issue among many users, its powerful and perhaps that's its problem | 06:47 |

| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: i think you don't understand me.. i did that first.. i've followed those exact directions TWICE | 06:48 |
| ansichart | Last night my update manager found several Kernel updates, so I downloaded them and rebooted my system. After that, my wireless card can't be found. I am using an Atheros card, and it appears that other people are having this same problem. Google has been finding a lot of people having this same problem, but no solutions. | 06:48 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: i'm not an idiot.. i know how to use terminal and follow directions and i followed them precisely | 06:48 |
| leo_rockw | jayde_drag0n: ok | 06:48 |
| ansichart | Is there a quick fix to this problem? | 06:48 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: just because i'm a girl does not pre-determine my grey matter to be non existent | 06:49 |
| LaW19z | i need help wit apollon can't anyone help me | 06:49 |
| leo_rockw | ansichart: my guess is that you installed a module for the kernel, new kernel means reinstalling the module | 06:49 |
| sekyourbox | has anyone installed a mouse patch in irssi? | 06:49 |
| leo_rockw | jayde_drag0n: english is not my mother tongue, I didn't even know jayde was a girl's name. so save it | 06:49 |
| thevor | Can I access my windows partition from Ubuntu 8.04 to get to a file I need? | 06:49 |
| bullgard4 | LaW19z: You better put a specific question here in this channel. | 06:50 |
| bullgard4 | thevor: Yes. | 06:50 |
| seb90210 | worst case scenario for grub, boot a live cd system, see /boot/grub/menu.lst, copy to a piece of paper then reboot to any grub and pass those parameters | 06:50 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: the only thing i can come up with is i have a partitioned drive.. i installed windows onto the secondary drive.. i did the fdisk -l linux is on sda1, windows on sda2.. the find command shows my MBR ad hd0,0.. i've done all of that | 06:51 |
| thevor | bull: I need to access some drivers to get my wireless card going. I haven't been able to transfer it over using a burned cd (ubuntu doesn't recognize that there are files on the cd). | 06:51 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: nothing gave errors and reported all worked fine | 06:51 |
| LaW19z | i need help configuring apollon on 8.04 | 06:51 |
| thevor | I tried sudo apt-get install wine but it says that wine isn't there. | 06:51 |
| ansichart | leo_rockw, So are you saying that the module I installed is the problem... is it easy to revert back to the module I was using? | 06:51 |
| leo_rockw | jayde_drag0n: ok, do the following... boot from a live cd, mount your ubuntu partition and pastebin your menu.lst | 06:51 |
| rebel_kid | thevor: just mount the partition | 06:51 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: okay give me a few minutes | 06:52 |
| leo_rockw | ansichart: what I mean is that everytime you install a new kernel you need to tell reinstall the module. i believe the new kernel is in fact the same version as the old one so you can't really go back to the old one | 06:52 |
| leo_rockw | ansichart: just reinstall the module | 06:53 |
| dumbdum | Just install 3 x 40gb hdd's in an old ubuntu box but it says they cant be mounted? any help please | 06:53 |
| ansichart | leo_rockw, I am not sure how to do that. My update manager did everything for me, it found some updates so I downloaded them and rebooted. | 06:54 |
| Rob | hello my fellow ubuntuers | 06:54 |
| leo_rockw | jayde_drag0n: another thing... I don't know if it says it in the instructions, but grub starts counting from 0, meaning that if your ubuntu partition is sda3 it will be (hd0,2) | 06:54 |
| leo_rockw | ansichart: i reckon you will have to do that again. i don't have an atheros card so google will know more about that than i | 06:54 |
| CarlosB | hey does neone know a terminal command for changing the screen resolution | 06:55 |
| LaW19z | can anyone help me i am trying to install and configure giftui i have it stalled right now but it won't connect to the networks can someone help | 06:55 |
| barqs | guys this is really bizarre... My previous track button works and so does my play/pause. however, when I try to configure next track, it doesn't work. Xev gives me the wrong keycode... | 06:56 |
| neeto | Does linux handle multiple core processes assymetrically or symmetrically? | 06:56 |
| CarlosB | does anyone know a command for changing the resolution in terminal | 06:56 |
| bullgard4 | thevor: /usr/share/doc/linux-doc-2.6.22/Documentation/filesystems/ntfs.txt has information and mount options for the NTFS filesystem (Windows NT) for Linux. (Replace 2.6.22 with your current kernel version.) | 06:56 |
| ansichart | leo_rockw, I'm not even sure to know what to Google. But basically I would need to reinstall the module that the kernel uses for my wifi card. How do I know what module I had? I can't really go back and time and use lsmod. | 06:56 |
| leo_rockw | LaW19z: you probably need to update the servers it connects to... good luck with that, I tried and tried and not succeeded, now i just use torrents | 06:56 |

| leo_rockw | jayde_drag0n: in what drive is your ubuntu installed? | 07:11 |
| the_other_brand | well i compiled a version it still black screened | 07:11 |
| ansichart | leo_rockw, I think this should work. I am re-installing the madwifi driver, which is compatible with my Atheros card. Hopes this works. | 07:11 |
| jayde_drag0n | leo_rockw: it should be sda1 the second largest drive..... the 20G is windows.. the 320 is my external | 07:11 |

| _Martin_ | I speak in english and russian | 07:11 |
| leo_rockw | ansichart: madwifi rings a bell. i believe that's exactly what you need | 07:12 |

| leo_rockw | djhash: master got changed? | 07:30 |

| ubottu | AeronTS: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 07:38 |

| orgthingy | HELP! | 07:39 |
| orgthingy | i was compiling hydra and it said make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 07:39 |
| orgthingy | configure worked fine, but README says that i have to write make first | 07:40 |
| orgthingy | and it says make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 07:40 |
| AeronTS | what do i with the apache2 that's already on there and running? can i simply just stop that one,and proceed with installation of the LAMP version? or will there be problems? | 07:40 |
| Jordan_U | AeronTS: If you installed it via the package manager then it's just the same thing, it will no it's already installed and not try to re-install it | 07:41 |
| djhash | AeronTS: you can.. sudo apt-get install mysql php5 apache2 | 07:41 |
| seb90210 | see ya | 07:42 |

| === hiptobecubic is now known as hiptobecubic^3 | ||
| Jordan_U | AeronTS: Do you plan on using MySQL, if not then it's not really necessary to install it if you just want to mess with PHP | 07:44 |
| AeronTS | wols: i installed apache2 with apt | 07:44 |
| === hiptobecubic^3 is now known as hiptobecubic | ||

| AeronTS | Jordan_U: i am sorta thinking of using MySQL, i have a weight loss program i've been doing on paper, that i'd like to convert to a program | 07:44 |
| orgthingy | or GTKhydra? | 07:44 |
| AeronTS | could i just remove apache2 with apt, then? if i'm going to use LAMP, i'd rather everything be clean, and install the whole enchilada :) | 07:45 |
| djhash | AeronTS: you could get on a fsater connection, download the package, put it on a CD or a thumbdrive, then install it on ur computer | 07:46 |
| wols | AeronTS: purge apache2.2-common rather | 07:46 |
| wols | AeronTS: but if you used the apache2 package from ubuntu it shouldn't be necessary | 07:46 |
| djhash | AeronTS: there is no LAMP package.. you are going to simply install each package seperately.. so dont remove apache so you only have to reinstall it.. | 07:47 |
| funkbrain | yo | 07:47 |
| djhash | AeronTS: LAMP is just an acronym.. its not a real package.. | 07:47 |

| magnetron | orgthingy, i have the link, but i much recommend you to use medusa instead. same functionality | 07:47 |
| AeronTS | but, with that tar file everything would be in one place, good enough for me | 07:48 |
| speener | df -h | 07:48 |
| orgthingy | magnetron : oh, thanks, ill try both | 07:48 |
| djhash | AeronTS: what tar file? | 07:48 |
| AeronTS | the one here -> http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html | 07:48 |

| wols | AeronTS: that tar file is not supported in any shape or form. if you then have problems with it, #ubuntu is the wrong place to ask | 07:49 |
| wols | AeronTS: and we STRONGLY tell you not to use that tar file | 07:50 |
| AeronTS | oh, well that is LAMP, isn't it? i thought you all were suggesting i get that | 07:50 |
| VipOrX | xampp is NOT LAMP | 07:50 |
| AeronTS | ok | 07:50 |
| wols | AeronTS: no one did. ever. not in #ubuntu | 07:50 |

| === ePax_ is now known as ePax | ||

| magnetron | orgthingy, in debian and ubuntu, there's ALWAYS a manpage for every CLI app | 07:57 |
| Jordan_U | AeronTS: You can actually install anything from main ( which includes all of the things shown by default in Applications -> Add / Remove ) but *Run a security update immediately if you are going to be connected to the internet* there was a serious ssl vulnerability in gutsy | 07:57 |
| djhash | VipOrX: link please? | 07:57 |

| wols | budmang: what "drivers"? | 08:01 |
| hischild | budmang, doesn't it work by default for you? | 08:01 |

| acrousey | how can I force quit an application in ubuntu? | 08:02 |
| wols | AeronTS: you can install it manually by installing apache2, mysql-server and php5 | 08:02 |
| asnarang | I want to read pdf files | 08:02 |
| magnetron | asnarang, first of all, you don't need adobe reader to read PDF files. there's already a PDF reader included in ubuntu, just doubleclick a pdf and see for yourself. | 08:02 |
| blogi | Could not download all repository indexes | 08:02 |
| blogi | The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct. | 08:02 |
| wols | asnarang: there are tons of pdf readers in ubuntu. and I'm sure evince is installed by default | 08:02 |
| alistair_ | Jordan_U, tks I get the picture anyway I'll be back in 15 mins if u still around to advise. I did try to set it from grub screen eg vga=874 but that was no good | 08:02 |
| hischild | asnarang, double click on a pdf to open it, you don't need special software for it, just like for just about any filetype. | 08:02 |
| blogi | i have an error downloading repository | 08:03 |
| wols | blogi: WHICH one | 08:03 |
| AeronTS | wols, with apt, how do i get it to install the packages off the dvd instead of looking elsewhere? | 08:03 |
| blogi | i dont know | 08:03 |
| asnarang | Still i want it. Earlier also i had installed it. But now I am facing difficulty. I want to intall it. | 08:03 |
| hischild | blogi, check the error message. Scroll up if needed. | 08:03 |

| alistair_ | One thing drives me crazy about Ubuntu is it is really fiddly with video - cannot seem to get it right - this is happening for 3 x PC of different types. | 09:00 |
| VipOrX | belkinhelp2: Ubuntu Hardy? 32 or 64 bit? | 09:00 |

| belkinhelp2 | Gutsy | 09:00 |
| VipOrX | ahhhh | 09:00 |
| belkinhelp2 | this problem has been persistant. I did not have it with Feisty | 09:01 |
| Guest67728 | Can anybody help with installing awn | 09:01 |
| richard | belkinhelp2, just try sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree and see if that works | 09:01 |
| xnv | OK, Firefox doesn't close properly and sound isn't working. Was there any problems with the kernel update yesterday? | 09:02 |
| richard | belkinhelp2, if that doesn't work run the purge command again and download and install the newest flash player from adobe's website | 09:02 |
| richard | I'm running ubuntu on my hdtv with hdmi and I can only get it to run 1080i and not 1080p so it's not quite full screen :( I'm using this video card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductReview.aspx?Item=N82E16814121259 it is reported to work fine at 1080p... do I need to modify my xorg.conf to get true 1080p or is it a driver issue? This is my tv: http://www.vizio.com/productDetails.aspx?id=1674&pid=1504 | 09:03 |
| ikonia | richard: I'm sorry to say you have chosen the card maker with the worst drivers and worst support for linux | 09:04 |
| notwist | goddamnit! i told iptables to accept all/anywhere on output, input and forward, why won't it let traffic through? | 09:04 |
| belkinhelp2 | testing it now | 09:04 |
| ubuntu_ | rg | 09:05 |
| belkinhelp2 | E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 09:05 |
| ikonia | richard: your TV also doesn't appear to be a noted/named brand, so you'll need to check what EDID information it gives out over HDMI (I assume your using HDMI) | 09:05 |
| Kartagis | I used ssh -X user@example.com and I logged in, then I issued the command gedit and I got 'cannot open display'. how come? | 09:05 |
| notwist | belkinhelp2: close other packet handler | 09:05 |
| notwist | Kartagis: gedit is graphical | 09:05 |
| richard | ikonia, yes I am | 09:06 |
| notwist | Kartagis: use nano | 09:06 |
| richard | ikonia, how do I do that? | 09:06 |
| Terralthr2 | I compiled a new kernel for myself so I could use the ath9k driver, but now nvidia's restricted driver isn't working, even though synaptic has it as installed | 09:06 |
| VipOrX | Kartagis: maybe the SSH server isnt allowing X11Forwarding | 09:06 |
| Terralthr2 | how do I get it to work again? | 09:06 |
| Kartagis | VipOrX, I checked, it does | 09:06 |
| ikonia | richard: richard you'll need to install some xorg packages, as I recall the command was edidinfo, but I don't remember the package | 09:07 |
| ikonia | richard: you should also be able to see it in your xorg log file | 09:07 |
| Kartagis | notwist, that's why I used ssh -X | 09:07 |
| ikonia | richard: be aware though the video card you have selected is not a good choice for any linux system, and in my opinion your in for a fight | 09:07 |
| notwist | Kartagis: why do you have to use gedit? | 09:08 |
| Terralthr2 | so, assuming synaptic/apt-get is right, and I have the modules on my system, how do I enable them again? | 09:08 |
| ikonia | Kartagis: make sure X11 forwarding is enabled on both sides | 09:08 |
| VipOrX | Kartagis: try -Y | 09:08 |

| notwist | anyone with experience of "webmin"? is it good? | 09:08 |

| tenbytes | anyway to grep an ftp file I mean | 09:09 |
| tenbytes | http | 09:09 |
| ikonia | notwist: it's not supported by ununtu | 09:09 |
| tenbytes | ug | 09:09 |
| ikonia | tenbytes: grep index.html | 09:09 |
| notwist | ikonia: why is it terrible? | 09:09 |
| ikonia | notwist: doesn't work well, unsecure, etc etc | 09:09 |
| dexem | !webmin | 09:09 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 09:09 |

| === mandragor is now known as weedar | ||
| ikonia | alistair_: it should do that on its own, if it can't work with your driver display, it will load fail safe drivers | 09:11 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, I wished! | 09:12 |
| Kartagis | VipOrX, http://pastebin.com/f57dd4bf5 | 09:12 |
| Guest67728 | help with awn installation please | 09:12 |
| ikonia | alistair_: just explain the issue | 09:12 |
| ikonia | Guest67728: what's the problem ? | 09:13 |
| Ritalin` | ? | 09:13 |
| Guest67728 | how do i get it to start when ubuntu starts | 09:13 |
| ikonia | Guest67728: how did you install it | 09:13 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, have installed Heron on 3 pc each has had some form of video problem and one gave me major it was an integrated VIA board I had to use Safe Video Mode on the install disk, then eventually install when it was running from the desktop that finally worked | 09:13 |
| Guest67728 | terminal | 09:14 |
| VipOrX | Kartagis: I see you are allowing root login, are you SSHed into root and trying to run remote gedit? | 09:14 |
| ikonia | Guest67728: from the ubuntu repo's ? | 09:14 |
| notwist | I sort of thought webmin could help me with getting my router up, can ebox do that as well? | 09:14 |
| notwist | my server as a router, that is | 09:14 |
| ikonia | notwist: no | 09:14 |
| richard | ikonia, ok I see the information in the xorg log with the modeline information... | 09:14 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, there is an issue with Heron recognising video the forum is full of such comments | 09:14 |
| Kartagis | VipOrX, no, I am logged as user | 09:14 |
| ikonia | notwist: well, depands how you chose to confgire it | 09:14 |
| === t33x is now known as tee | ||
| Guest67728 | i dont really know what that means | 09:14 |
| Guest67728 | yeah | 09:14 |
| ikonia | alistair_: those video cards are known to be bad | 09:14 |
| VipOrX | Kartagis: did ssh -Y user@box work? | 09:14 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, (well fairly full)! | 09:14 |
| Guest67728 | some guy had me run it directly from the terminal | 09:15 |
| PenguinLover | hey people, one silly question, i want ubuntu based distro that runs from the USB Flash and doesn't take a lot of space :D | 09:15 |
| ikonia | alistair_: if you use the vesa driver - I'm sure it will work | 09:15 |
| PenguinLover | and with instructions | 09:15 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, I am just having a battle with a PC which worked before, now it has stopped I tried device = vesa but now the resolution is rubbish | 09:15 |
| belkinhelp2 | using the synaptic package manager worked...installed libflash0c2, libflash-mozplugin and libflash-swfplayer | 09:15 |
| fatsug | Guest67728: try reading this: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=180712 | 09:15 |
| belkinhelp2 | seems to have cleared up the problem | 09:16 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, max resolution now is 800x600 before it was 1024 x 768 or thereabouts | 09:16 |
| belkinhelp2 | hard to troubleshoot because it doesnt always skip...have to watch videos now to find out | 09:16 |
| belkinhelp2 | lol | 09:16 |
| belkinhelp2 | but so far so good | 09:16 |
| ikonia | alistair_: what did you change | 09:16 |
| Kartagis | VipOrX, no it didn't work | 09:16 |
| alistair_ | just device = vesa | 09:16 |
| belkinhelp2 | thank all for your support | 09:17 |
| ikonia | alistair_: yes, thats teh fail save driver | 09:17 |
| ikonia | alistair_: so it won't support high res | 09:17 |
| Guest67728 | thank you so much | 09:17 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, Im just about to reinstall Ubuntu on this machine because been mucking around for ages | 09:17 |
| ikonia | alistair_: ok? | 09:17 |
| notwist | ikonia: how do i add more modules to ebox? | 09:17 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, Im not sure if you are on dev team?? | 09:17 |
| ikonia | alistair_: I'm not | 09:17 |
| dexem | notwist: which modules do you need? | 09:18 |
| dexem | it should be as simple as apt-get install ebox-foo if they exist | 09:18 |
| ana | anna | 09:18 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, pity, I was going to suggest that there is some methods used to failsafe when the failsafe system doesnt work! | 09:18 |
| notwist | dexem: some to make my computer a working router with maybe some nice features. got dhcp3 already so not that | 09:18 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, for example: | 09:18 |
| ikonia | alistair_: that would be a pointless suggestion | 09:18 |
| notwist | dexem: so which ones should i get? | 09:18 |
| jamil_13579 | my boot menu comes very late | 09:19 |
| dexem | notwist: you can see some features here: http://ebox-platform.com/product/features/ | 09:19 |
| alistair_ | On the PC in question, if it boots normally, the screen is corrupt. If boot disk is used and F4=Safe Video then it loads up, resolution is fine, and shes sweet | 09:19 |
| VipOrX | Kartagis: if SSH server is allowing X11Forwarding and your using -X or -Y to run remote gedit, it should work unless you made some custom xorg.conf setting or other customizations | 09:19 |
| notwist | dexem: ok i got "network" and "samba", lets see if it works | 09:20 |
| dexem | notwist: if that looks ok for you, then you can go to #ebox and ask about you current configuration and how to migrate to ebox | 09:20 |
| ikonia | alistair_: it's pointless explaining this | 09:20 |
| alistair_ | Then if you install from that desktop, it will install with the correct resolution eg much higher than can get currently | 09:20 |
| ikonia | alistair_: thats not how it works, and I don't think it should be changed so it's pointless to continue explaining it | 09:20 |
| alistair_ | ikonia, ok tks anyway | 09:20 |
| VipOrX | Kartagis: is your ssh client running -X on linux? | 09:22 |

| === sean is now known as Guest81959 | ||

| ActionParsnip | francois: have you tuned and fine tuned? | 09:44 |
| francois | ActionParsnip: I don't think so. How would I go about doing that? | 09:44 |
| salaz | visik7: do u know how to get into an ssh server? | 09:44 |

| salaz | yes | 09:45 |
| francois | ActionParsnip: Cable | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | francois: ok, hmm id check in the settings. I use a tv card back in the day and did some fine tuning | 09:46 |
| ActionParsnip | francois: id flick through settings to make sure its all ok | 09:46 |
| francois | ActionParsnip: Okay, will do. It probably just takes a little snooping around. Thanks you =] | 09:46 |

| asare | thanks man | 10:00 |
| * ActionParsnip expects a compiz question | 10:00 | |
| immy123 | asare, i'm pretty new too | 10:00 |
| salaz | i have question, how to install others package like .rpm in ubuntu? do i have to install the rpm package manager first? or can i convert the .rpm file to .deb? | 10:00 |
| immy123 | good to see someone like me :) | 10:00 |
| Flannel | !alien | salaz | 10:00 |
| ubottu | salaz: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 10:00 |
| asare | so i love what am experience so f | 10:01 |
| immy123 | salaz, u can use alien to convert from one package to another | 10:01 |
| salaz | Flannel: do u know that .rpm also can be installed in ubuntu? | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: try and find a deb | 10:01 |
| Flannel | salaz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RPM/AlienHowto | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: what you installing? | 10:01 |
| salaz | oh | 10:01 |
| salaz | ok | 10:01 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: whats the rpm install? | 10:01 |
| Flannel | salaz: They won't work well together though. rpm won't know about apts packages and v.v. | 10:01 |
| immy123 | hey, salaz r u jst checkin our knowledge in linux or r u serious? | 10:02 |
| immy123 | rpm doesn't wrk in ubuntu right? | 10:02 |
| salaz | nope..its my task to do the research on that and implement it | 10:02 |
| salaz | can work | 10:02 |
| immy123 | i once tried to install one n it ddnt wrk | 10:02 |
| asare | i have few questions to ask is there any one who is familar with Unbuntu server | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: you can convert but its STRONGLY advised not to bothe | 10:02 |
| Flannel | immy123: Ubuntu is a deb distro, yes. | 10:02 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: ask away, its the same as the desktop essentially | 10:02 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: why it is not encourage to do so? it will corrupted the system? | 10:03 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: it can, yes | 10:03 |
| Flannel | salaz: one doesn't know what the other is doing. | 10:03 |
| asare | ok will i have to server installed but it only gave me a command line no graphics | 10:03 |
| Flannel | asare: Correct | 10:04 |
| JabberWalkie | so, it seems that ubuntu is slow to get my usb keyboard and mouse to work. It takes about 10 seconds after the desktop is loaded untill they light up and start working. It never used to do this, any one know what might be causing it? | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: then you need to install x and a desktop environment | 10:04 |
| salaz | Flannel: oh ok..i guess its dangerous | 10:04 |
| immy123 | but dnt wry Jabber | 10:04 |
| immy123 | they'll fix it in the next release | 10:04 |
| asare | its there any way i can get it go like desktop? | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: why did you get the server version if you want a desktop? | 10:04 |
| immy123 | ubuntu is improvin at a very fast pace | 10:04 |
| asare | i know | 10:04 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: sudo apt-get fluxbox should sort you out | 10:04 |
| asare | well i want to run a sever | 10:04 |
| JabberWalkie | immy123: well, it depends if it is a problem the devs know about | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: desktop can run a server | 10:05 |
| Flannel | asare: Is this your main box? | 10:05 |
| immy123 | n windows is going backwards in terms of improvement ;) | 10:05 |
| immy123 | vista da best example | 10:05 |
| Flannel | !u | immy123 | 10:05 |
| ubottu | immy123: Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officer, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun. If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you". The same goes for "are", "why", "because", "anyone", and so on.. | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: you can install any ubuntu app on any of the other multitude of ubuntus | 10:05 |
| salaz | Flannel: whats the probability the rpm package will disturb the system? is highly not encourage or is it just not encourage to do so? | 10:05 |
| Savion_ | OH MY GOD | 10:05 |
| Savion_ | ubottu, you my friend win | 10:05 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 10:05 |
| immy123 | hmm then that means i can't use shorten forms | 10:05 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: id say high | 10:06 |
| Savion_ | Damn it | 10:06 |
| Flannel | asare: Linux makes no differentiation between a "server" and a "desktop" they're both just programs. If you're looking to run a few server programs on your regular box, you're better off installing desktop, and then adding them. | 10:06 |
| hateball | So... does Ubuntu (or the kernel in general) support RAM hotplugging? | 10:06 |
| immy123 | ok, ok i won't do it in the future | 10:06 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: ok | 10:06 |
| Flannel | immy123: Thta's correct. It's extremely difficult for non-native speakers to follow. | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: youve made yourself a tonne of extra work and at the end you're going to have a desktop install just slower | 10:06 |
| immy123 | ok, but i'm a non-native speaker as well. ;) | 10:06 |
| asare | well i will try that and see | 10:06 |
| OmgItsAshark | how do i remove programs? | 10:07 |
| immy123 | add/remove in the main menu | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: the command i gave you will install fluxbox and all its dependancies which will include x | 10:07 |
| salaz | me too non-native english speaker ;0 | 10:07 |
| Flannel | asare: If you're going to use it for a regular desktop, after you install ubuntu-desktop, you'll also want to install linux-generic, and then next boot remove linux-server | 10:07 |
| immy123 | uncheck it and hit apply button | 10:07 |
| asare | ok | 10:07 |
| OmgItsAshark | i swear i am blind | 10:07 |
| ActionParsnip | OmgItsAshark: you can use synaptic or apt-get | 10:07 |
| immy123 | is it apt-get remove | 10:08 |
| immy123 | or apt-get install --remove | 10:08 |
| asare | well i will install desktop to be free from all this pbl am getting ma self into | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: you need ssudo for apt-get | 10:08 |
| asare | well is later here guys i ga to bed up | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: sudo apt-get --purge remove <program>; sudo apt-get clean | 10:08 |
| asare | work in the morning | 10:08 |
| Flannel | ActionParsnip: no need to clean | 10:08 |
| asare | yaw_asare@hotmail.com | 10:08 |
| immy123 | why does purge come there | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Flannel: was meant to be autoremove but had a brain spazz | 10:08 |
| asare | later actionparsnip later | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: it removes the configs for the app, a proper remove | 10:09 |
| Flannel | ActionParsnip: autoremove probably isn't what you want anyway. | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | asare: peace | 10:09 |
| immy123 | oh, then how about the GUI removal | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Flannel: why not? it removes orphaned deps | 10:09 |
| immy123 | i usually do that way | 10:09 |
| asare | peace to ya'll | 10:09 |
| salaz | Flannel: is it if i convert the rpm file to deb, it will be much more safer? | 10:09 |
| Flannel | immy123: in synaptic, "complete removal" is the same as purge | 10:09 |
| salaz | purge in DoTa?huhu | 10:09 |
| Flannel | salaz: yes, but you should try and find a deb. | 10:09 |
| immy123 | oh, then what im doing is also ok. | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: what is the name of the deb you have? | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | heres a question...why can only root run alien?? | 10:10 |
| Flannel | ActionParsnip: I know what it does, but doing that automatically can sometimes remove things you don't want removed. | 10:10 |
| immy123 | only sudo can but not root right? | 10:10 |
| salaz | Flannel: thanx, like i told u be4,its just a task 4me to do, i'm not gonna install it ;-) | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: to you, sudo == root | 10:11 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: i dont want to install it, juz want to know how to install n convert it, thanx to both of u | 10:11 |
| immy123 | but i read somewhere that root and super user are two different things | 10:11 |
| Flannel | sudo is a means by which you become root temporarily. It's not root. | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: do try and find a deb | 10:11 |
| asare | http://yci.takingitglobal.org/ind/yawasare | 10:11 |
| immy123 | oh, so that's it, thanks for explanation Flannel. | 10:11 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: damn, i've told u many times haha..i'm not gonna install it! ;-o | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Flannel: to a user its the same deal, it gves them the acces they need. You are right it isnt ACTUAL root, but its equivelant access | 10:12 |
| Flannel | asare: Please don;t do that here. | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: good | 10:12 |
| Flannel | ActionParsnip: it's an important distinction. | 10:12 |
| immy123 | by the way, why doesn't ubuntu have a good site so that users can download s/w and share it among them? | 10:12 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: I have gens installed from rpm but I dont care if my system falls over and I wanted some fun | 10:12 |
| Mithsir | Hi! I cant get DPMS to work correctly on my MSI Wind laptop - after the timeout, the screen blanks for 1 second, but then comes back up. How do I fix/debug this? | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: they do, they are the repos | 10:13 |
| salaz | ok2..now i'm asking about nfs...what is it actually do? | 10:13 |
| immy123 | hmm. | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: nfs == network file system? | 10:13 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: haha..u r a hardcore | 10:13 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: yes | 10:13 |
| Flannel | salaz: You should ask that in another channel, perhaps #ubuntu-offtopic, this channel is for support related questions, not general info stuff. | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: between what and what? | 10:13 |
| salaz | Flannel: sorry, just asking | 10:14 |
| immy123 | but i recently saw in a blog, some users ranting that ubuntu doesn't have a good site that'll help users to download and share s/w | 10:14 |
| salaz | ActionParsnip: server and client? | 10:14 |
| immy123 | i know that the repos is available | 10:14 |
| ActionParsnip | salaz: im not hardcore im just familiar with the stupid acronymns in this industry | 10:14 |
| immy123 | but that doesn't let a user to download a s/w and then give it to his friends | 10:14 |
| immy123 | just like burning an iso image of ubuntu and giving to his friends | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: check apt-get switches, you can simply download the rpm but not install it | 10:15 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: it downloads to /var/apt/cache | 10:15 |
| Flannel | immy123: You can do that with the repositories, yes. See aptonCD | 10:15 |
| Mithsir | ActionParsnip: I did install all updates, but that didnt fix my DPMS problems | 10:15 |
| immy123 | you mean we can download s/w installation files? | 10:15 |
| Flannel | immy123: deb packages are software installation files | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | Mithsir: what vga card you got? | 10:16 |
| gaurav__ | which one is good for multimeda purpose ubuntu , fedora or any othjer version please do suggest me | 10:16 |
| immy123 | aha, so that's good. | 10:16 |
| Mithsir | ActionParsnip: Intel 945GME | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | gaurav__: all are fine | 10:16 |
| bazhang | gaurav__, they are all good; this is ubuntu support however | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | gaurav__: your requirement is very generic so any distro wil do | 10:17 |
| immy123 | ubuntu is good, but you'll have to download the codecs | 10:17 |
| gaurav__ | which one is best for like sound forge and all heavy multimedia support | 10:17 |
| salaz | another question, do you all everheard about ftec laptop? it seems have problems with the graphics, did ubuntu support all types of graphics? | 10:17 |
| gaurav__ | or any specific linux version | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | gaurav__: again, all | 10:17 |
| bazhang | !studio | gaurav__ | 10:17 |
| ubottu | gaurav__: UbuntuStudio is a collection of packages for the artist who wishes to use Ubuntu as their Digital Audio Workstation. It contains all the best Audio/Visual components from the Ubuntu repositories. For more info and install instructions, join #ubuntustudio or see http://ubuntustudio.org | 10:17 |
| Slart | gaurav__: I think there's a multimedia version of ubuntu available.. medibuntu perhaps? | 10:17 |
| Slart | gaurav__: ah.. that was the one | 10:17 |
| immy123 | ah yeah, i've heard about ubuntustudio. that would do. | 10:17 |

| justin__ | or where I could look to find out | 10:18 |
| as | the output of mount? | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Mithsir: have you got Option "DPMS" in your xorg.conf? | 10:18 |
| Flannel | salaz: Ubuntu supports a great deal of graphics chipsets. As for that particular laptop, it will depend on its hardware. | 10:18 |
| fatsug | Slart: i think you mean ubuntu studio | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Mithsir: should be in Section "Monitor" | 10:19 |
| Mithsir | ActionParsnip: yes | 10:19 |
| Flannel | salaz: You'll have to check it out yourself, or at least google around for it. | 10:19 |
| immy123 | hmm. aptonCD seems to be cool. but what if there's a site for users to get to know about various s/w | 10:19 |
| immy123 | the latest ones as well | 10:19 |
| salaz | Flannel: ok, i'll look after it | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | immy123: again websearch round to see what you can find | 10:19 |
| immy123 | they also can rate them. and give their comments | 10:19 |

| Nom- | Hi all. Can anyone recommend a package for having centranlized authorization to login to a server? | 10:23 |
| ActionParsnip | Nom-: an ssh server? | 10:24 |
| simmerz | ActionParsnip: so why would automount not mount with user-write? | 10:24 |
| jpds | !ssh | Nom- | 10:24 |
| ubottu | Nom-: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 10:24 |
| Dzero | authentication against a windows domain? | 10:24 |
| ActionParsnip | simmerz: depends how your system is setup | 10:24 |
| justin__ | Dzero what is lshw? | 10:24 |
| simmerz | ActionParsnip: meaning? it's almost a default setup... upgraded from gutsy to hardy | 10:25 |
| salaz | cryingtux: try this https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-September/093780.html | 10:25 |
| Nom- | No, as in centralized authorization to who can connect either locally or via ssh. An access control system. | 10:25 |
| Dzero | justin__, its a command that tells you about your hardware | 10:25 |
| justin__ | ok | 10:25 |
| Chousuke | Nom-: I'm not familiar with the technologies per se, but isn't some PAM module usually used for that? | 10:25 |
| justin__ | thanks | 10:25 |
| Dzero | also have a look at the output of mount | 10:25 |
| Nom- | Probably... i'm looking into pam_ldap at the moment | 10:26 |
| Chousuke | Nom-: googling for that might get you started. | 10:26 |

| gaurav__ | can linux system can be worked remotely on windows working system | 10:26 |
| gaurav__ | ? | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | simmerz: you can have all sorts of weid and wonderful setups in linux, you need to remount | 10:26 |
| Chousuke | gaurav__: yes? | 10:26 |
| gaurav__ | could you please ellebrote me sir | 10:26 |
| gaurav__ | how to do so ? | 10:26 |
| ActionParsnip | gaurav__: do you mean share a linux folder to the network? | 10:26 |
| salaz | gaurav_what do you mean, like remote desktop? or webmin? | 10:27 |
| Chousuke | gaurav__: if I understood you correctly, then all you need is and SSH client (and a server on the linux machine) or VNC. | 10:27 |
| Chousuke | an* | 10:27 |
| gaurav__ | no sir i wanna view my linux system remotely some where else on the machine which has os win | 10:27 |
| rrrmanion | morning guys | 10:27 |
| Chousuke | gaurav__: "view" how? :) | 10:27 |
| rrrmanion | (and maybe girls?) | 10:27 |
| ActionParsnip | gaurav__: there are tools for reading linux partitions, Linux can read and write to ntfs | 10:27 |
| simmerz | ActionParsnip: I know that. I'm asking why, if I have a default ubuntu setup (the only change to /etc/fstab is proc/usb stuff), I can't mount my external drive as writeable by double clicking it in Places -> Computer... | 10:28 |
| gaurav__ | i mean like remote servers | 10:28 |
| Chousuke | gaurav__: well you can log in to it with SSH | 10:28 |
| gaurav__ | how to get ssh | 10:28 |

Anyone know much about this kind of error msg | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=198614 | 10:30 |
| ActionParsnip | simmerz: ^ | 10:30 |
| Dzero | justin__, is your xbox chiped then? | 10:30 |
| scuser | Dzero: so should I specify sda# and not sda only ? | 10:30 |
| justin__ | yes it is | 10:31 |
| salaz | cryingtux: if u google it i confirm theres monet threads and forum about it..coz i've repaired my grub and fixed the grub error 17 before | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: sda is a physical hard drive, sda1 is the first partition, sda2 is the nexgt | 10:31 |
| justin__ | well not chipped but flashed | 10:31 |
| salaz | *many ..dem | 10:31 |
| Dzero | yes but make sure you specify the right partition | 10:31 |

| Dzero | justin__, try running: dmesg | grep dvd | 10:31 |
| cryingtux | salaz: i could too previously, but this time all i get on reboot is >grub | 10:31 |
| Dzero | scuser, if its a new disk you might need to create the partitions | 10:32 |
| salaz | cryingtux: theres no grub loader? | 10:32 |
| scuser | Dzero: another problem "mkfs.lustre: according to /etc/mtab /dev/sda8 is already mounted on /0" should I umount sda8 ? | 10:32 |
| justin__ | just that line in the terminal? | 10:32 |
| ActionParsnip | simmerz: nice websearching. default install doesnt always mean everything works dude | 10:32 |
| Dzero | scuser, yes | 10:32 |
| Dzero | scuser, but make sure your writing to the right partition | 10:33 |

| ubottu | fsloke: 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. :-) | 10:34 |
| justin__ | yes | 10:34 |
| bazhang | fsloke, what about them | 10:34 |

| zxxd | hi | 10:34 |
| justin__ | otherwise they will ban your box for life | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: box or ip? | 10:35 |
| Dzero | i think the banning is per box | 10:35 |
| justin__ | what? box or ip? what do you mean? | 10:35 |
| Dzero | ip is the internet address you use | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: do they ban your xbox or your WAN IP | 10:36 |
| justin__ | ya your box is forever locked out | 10:36 |
| Dzero | box will be the serial number(GUID maybe) | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: just trying to get more info. I think consoles are useless | 10:36 |
| simmerz | ActionParsnip: clearly... shame really. | 10:36 |
| salaz | ! nfs | 10:36 |
| ubottu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 10:36 |
| Dzero | ActionParsnip, not if you want to play games | 10:37 |
| justin__ | ya but I heard you can sader a point inside the console to block that from happening but it seems scetchy | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | Dzero: im no gamer | 10:37 |
| scuser | Dzero: another issue with lustre http://paste.ubuntu.com/40864/ could you help me with that ? | 10:37 |

| echo6 | !vmware | 10:38 |
| 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 | 10:38 |
| Dzero | scuser, sounds like its the wrong partition | 10:38 |
| justin__ | dzero: i saw on a site to check /etc/fstab but that didnt seem to have the right info.....have you done this before? | 10:38 |
| fsloke | My problem is | 10:39 |
| scuser | Dzero: could you please explain what does wrong or right means ? | 10:39 |
| rrrmanion | !fstab | 10:39 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 10:39 |
| fsloke | there is not libldap_r.so.2 file but I have /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.4.so.2.0.5 | 10:39 |
| Dzero | justin__, did you try: dmesg | grep dvd | 10:39 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: if you sudo fdisk -l do you see the sda8? | 10:39 |
| fsloke | how can I use symbolic link to link them together? | 10:39 |
| zxxd | i have a problem with usplash returning to the console before loading X | 10:39 |
| zxxd | so the background appears | 10:40 |
| zxxd | of the console | 10:40 |
| ActionParsnip | fsloke: indeed | 10:40 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: yes | 10:40 |
| ActionParsnip | fsloke: if its needed in /usr/lib you will need sudo | 10:40 |
| justin__ | I typed that in but what is that between dmesg and grep dvd? | 10:40 |
| rrrmanion | !hda1 | 10:40 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hda1 | 10:40 |
| Dzero | you can just copy and paste it into a terminal | 10:41 |
| rrrmanion | !ext1 | 10:41 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ext1 | 10:41 |
| Flannel | !botabuse | rrrmanion | 10:41 |
| ubottu | rrrmanion: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubottu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids. | 10:41 |

| fsloke | when the application want to use the libldap_r.so.2 how can I point this libldap_r.so.2 to /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.4.so.2.0.5 | 10:41 |
| fsloke | Can I do this? | 10:41 |
| wariskampar | how do I know whether my SAMBA is secured by SSH or not | 10:41 |
| Dzero | KazaLite, yes | 10:41 |
| ActionParsnip | fsloke: yes | 10:41 |
| ActionParsnip | KazaLite: yes it would | 10:41 |
| fsloke | It installed | 10:41 |
| Dzero | KazaLite, but if its LGPL your ok | 10:41 |
| fsloke | but the version different... Now I try to point the old version to the new version | 10:42 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: should I format sda8 only or any other partition, and with which filesystem ? | 10:42 |
| fsloke | I try to "Cheat" The application... | 10:42 |
| justin__ | thank you i found that but when I adjust the code in terminal for the burn this is what comes up unable to open64("cd/rw",O_RDONLY | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: id use ext3 | 10:42 |
| fsloke | How can I do this? | 10:42 |
| ActionParsnip | fsloke: it sometimes has to be done that way | 10:43 |
| ActionParsnip | fsloke: cd to the folder in terminal | 10:43 |
| ActionParsnip | sudo ln -s ./existingfilename ./filenameyouwantto exist | 10:43 |
| fsloke | then | 10:44 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: I used parted utility to format and found that sda8 is formatted ext3, what do you think I should do ? | 10:44 |
| justin__ | it also says directory doesnt exist | 10:44 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: can you mount it? | 10:44 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: No, mount: can't find /dev/sda8 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab :( | 10:45 |
| Dzero | scuser, you sure your pointing to the right game image? | 10:45 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: doesnt need to be in either | 10:45 |
| Dzero | scuser, sorry confused you with justin__ | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: sudo mkdir /mnt/test; sudo mount /dev/sda8 /mnt/test | 10:46 |
| nnull | if i cant mount a networked drive is it possible the drive is fooked? ive been playing with shares on it and i think the drives had it, its like a 120gig drive and ive had it packed with 119 gig left on for many months :s? | 10:46 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: you dont need fstab or mtab for that, you can mount anything anyplace | 10:46 |
| nnull | thats bad for drives right | 10:46 |
| justin__ | the game image is on the desktop | 10:46 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: well those commands worked fine, but how can this help my problem ? | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | nnull: very full partitions arent advised | 10:47 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: i jst wanna make sre you can write to the partition | 10:48 |
| justin__ | when I originally typed the command that works for my friend like a charm it came up with this....:-( "/dev/hdc=": unexpected errno:No such file or directory | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: cd /mnt/test; touch andy.txt; ls | 10:48 |
| nnull | ActionParsnip, its not a partition, unless ubuntu considers it one when mounting? | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | nnull: you can ONLY mount partitions | 10:48 |
| nnull | spose its on one lol | 10:48 |
| Dzero | justin__, give the full command line | 10:48 |
| justin__ | growisofs -use-the-force-luke=dao -use-the-force-luke=break:1913760 -dvd-compat -speed=2 -Z /dev/hdc= /home/justin/Desktop/TigerWoods.iso | 10:48 |
| nnull | its a NTFS partition | 10:48 |
| ActionParsnip | nnull: yes, a disk with 1 partition is still a partition | 10:48 |
| nnull | ActionParsnip : indeed lol | 10:49 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: andy.txt is now found at /mnt/test | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | nnull: and the partition is in the same local machine? | 10:49 |
| nnull | nope its a windows share on the local network | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: ok then the disk is healthy. rm ./andy.txt | 10:49 |
| ActionParsnip | nnull: ok so whats your issue? | 10:49 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: this means that I can write to the /dev/sda8, so ?? | 10:50 |
| KazaLite | actually i want to write an application that will not be open source and will be sold to clients but this application would use/rely upon libraries that fall under GPL like libpart etc so if i use these GPLed libraries will i have to make all my code open source? | 10:50 |
| linxeh | KazaLite: correct | 10:50 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: it means the drive is healthy and being read correctly | 10:50 |
| linxeh | KazaLite: this is the good thing with the GPL :) | 10:51 |
| nnull | ActionParsnip: i cant mount it, just says unable to mount, or mount failed, so i run a chkdsk on it and it gets to phase 4of5 and basically feezes does about 1% every 2 hours i left it for about half a day | 10:51 |
| KazaLite | then how to make money?:P | 10:51 |
| eventmaster | hello can someone help me with multisync | 10:51 |
| linxeh | KazaLite: write the code yourself | 10:51 |
| ActionParsnip | KazaLite: if you release it too, ten folks might add stuff to your project and help you make it better | 10:51 |
| eventmaster | http://rafb.net/p/jSbo4X47.html this is my settings | 10:51 |
| bazhang | KazaLite, this is offtopic here. | 10:51 |
| linxeh | KazaLite: or sell support to your code etc, but go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:51 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: so could you help me how to fix the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/40864/ ? | 10:51 |
| justin__ | Dzero, what do you think? | 10:51 |
| KazaLite | ok...join #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: do you have the module it asks for? | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | KazaLite: try /j #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:52 |
| nnull | so what do you think ActionParsnip, think the drive is buggered? | 10:52 |
| KazaLite | thanks:) | 10:52 |
| ActionParsnip | nnull: sounds like its on its way out. Doesnt help its sol overloaded | 10:53 |
| scuser | ActionParsnip: yes, aptitude search lustre gives "i lustre-ldiskfs - ldiskfs backend file system" | 10:53 |
| Dzero | justin__, not sure. Should there really be a space after the =? | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: hmm, it it modprobed? | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: ive never set this up | 10:53 |
| ActionParsnip | scuser: http://osdir.com/ml/file-systems.lustre.user/2007-01/msg00006.html | 10:54 |
| justin__ | I tried without the space and it said this....:-( "/dev/hdc=/home/justin/Desktop/TigerWoods.iso": unexpected errno:No such file or directory | 10:54 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: what you trying to do? | 10:55 |
| Dzero | burn the iso to his dvd | 10:55 |
| justin__ | burn a 360 iso on to a dual layer disc | 10:55 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: k3b gnomebaker etc? | 10:56 |
| justin__ | copy that into the terminal? | 10:56 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: no those are apps to use to burn cds | 10:57 |
| ActionParsnip | and other optical media | 10:57 |
| Dzero | i think he's using options not supported by the gui's | 10:57 |
| justin__ | think that would work also for the 360 iso to the dual layer disc? | 10:57 |
| justin__ | but my friend uses the same command in the same gui | 10:58 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: should be fine yes | 10:58 |
| ActionParsnip | !burn | justin__ | 10:58 |
| ubottu | justin__: CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, brasero, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus-CD-Burner, GToaster, xcdroast (GNOME), wodim (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 10:58 |
| Dzero | ActionParsnip, he's using -use-the-force-luke options though does k3b or the others support this? | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: id use those or get your buddy to email you the command he uses | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Dzero: no idea man, sorry | 10:59 |
| Dzero | justin__, you sure your dvd writer is /dev/hdc? | 10:59 |
| justin__ | i have no clue if that supports it | 10:59 |
| Dzero | i doubt it | 10:59 |
| justin__ | thats what I am saying I dont know how to find out where my dvd writers path is | 11:00 |
| Dzero | put a normal dvd in there | 11:00 |
| Dzero | then open it | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: file /dev/cdrom | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: should tell you | 11:00 |
| justin__ | ok the dvd is in there....where will it say? | 11:01 |
| Dzero | dmesg | 11:01 |
| Dzero | check the last few lines | 11:01 |
| ceue_15_menggila | add fs ku ya... mee@lavd.you thank you =) | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | justin__: the file /dev/cdrom is a symlink | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | or if you want help with dzero's thing: dmesg | tail | 11:02 |
| Dzero | he might have more then one drive though | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | Dzero: true | 11:03 |
| NineTeen67Comet | Hello all, is it the /etc/hosts file or the /etc/hostname file that will reflect my boxes name on my network? I usually almost always add my computer name to hostname and the ip boxname.networkname.com boxname .. to my hosts file .. but got to thinking a minute ago where else I can tag things to make roaming the network easier? | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | NineTeen67Comet: hostname | 11:03 |
| incorrect | hi, what group do you need to be in for the add/remove apps menu option to appear? | 11:03 |
| Dzero | actualy scrap the dmesg idea dmesg has no info about the device name | 11:03 |
| justin__ | YES!!!!! ITS WORKING!!!!! | 11:03 |
| incorrect | or can i add a group | 11:03 |
| NineTeen67Comet | ActionParsnip: thank you much .. I like when I'm on the right track .. =) | 11:03 |
| justin__ | you guys rock!! | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | NineTeen67Comet: hostname specifies hostname | 11:03 |
| incorrect | ideally i would like to add a group for add/remove apps | 11:03 |
| template_ | dobarden | 11:03 |

| FuRom | I just downloaded Open Office 3.0 beta, and it was a tar ball full of .deb files inside a folder labeled "DEBS", it also has a couple of other folders, and one file labeled "update"... the update file appears to be some sort of script... I was just wondering, how should I go about installing this? | 11:05 |
| justin__ | I figured out that it wasnt dev/hdc it was dev/sr0 | 11:05 |
| NineTeen67Comet | ActionParsnip: Thanks much none the less, I just had a minute and it's a question that's burned in the back of my mind from my Gentoo days and could have "sworn" the hostname file is where my machine showed it's colors on the network .. | 11:05 |
| ActionParsnip | FuRom: sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb | 11:05 |

| ActionParsnip | *you | 11:07 |
| FuRom | ActionPasnip, I should be doing "sudo dpkg -i ./*.deb" inside the folder with all the debian files, right? | 11:08 |
| rw | i, I want to run something by you guys. I have set up "ufw" using "gufw". I added ufw to "sessions". Am I correct to think that next time I start my computer, ufw will be correctly configured and running the background? | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | FuRom: yes and it will install the deb files | 11:08 |
| FuRom | ActionParsnip, thanks a million ^_^ | 11:08 |
| ActionParsnip | FuRom: if they need deps run sudo apt-get -f install | 11:08 |
| justin__ | the other thing is I have been mencoding mkv files to avi so I can watch high def movies on my PS3 but for some reason they dont want to seem to play anyone had this issue? its a standard xvid avi file | 11:08 |

| NineTeen67Comet | Savion: since your installation of Ubuntu isn't "really" installed you might be better to just re-install it. I've never used Wubi but your error seems to point to it's use of ram in some way. | 11:20 |

| ActionParsnip | adilson: type your password, you are now the more powerful user | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | adilson: you can su back to the limited user or you can close the terminal and the user will be limited once more | 11:29 |
| adilson | ActionParsnip: oh thanx will try hopefully that will work but the file permission will belong to them, I hope it does otherwise back to square 1 | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | adilson: you can sudo so you can do anything | 11:29 |
| ActionParsnip | benjamin: is this a bash script? | 11:30 |
| sylvia | hi - I just have a question | 11:30 |
| adilson | ActionParsnip: ok but what about the file permission, i wish to change a file but have that file with their permission, do i have to change permission afterwards manually or it keeps the user account permission? | 11:31 |
| benjamin | ActionParsnip - nope | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | benjamin: what is it? | 11:31 |
| jrib | benjamin: what arch are you on? | 11:31 |
| benjamin | amd64 | 11:31 |
| sylvia | I am not a techno-geek :D I am a (reformed) windows user - self taught - I use my computer to play games, watch movies, surf the internet, do my homework etc. is kubuntu right for this? | 11:31 |
| ActionParsnip | adilson: edit the file, then use sudo chown <limited users username> <file to change ownership> | 11:32 |
| benjamin | and another thing thats odd, is if I leave the computer idling for awhile, the screen goes and nothing Ican do gets it back | 11:32 |
| benjamin | goes black* | 11:32 |
| benjamin | without hard reboot | 11:32 |
| ActionParsnip | sylvia: yeah should be fine | 11:32 |
| adilson | ActionParsnip: ok im out going to change account | 11:32 |
| benjamin | but I didn't have these problems on the original release, only after updates | 11:32 |
| jrib | benjamin: you are missing some file that junglediskmonitor looks for probably. It's not that junglediskmonitor is missing. Are you sure you can run it? | 11:32 |
| sylvia | I ask this because I installed ubuntu, and the display was skewed badly so I installed kubuntu - or rather did the apt-get command... and am running kde - and games still do not work properly and I cannot play dvd's its just getting very frustrating | 11:33 |

| linxeh | chuy_max: as in synthesis? | 11:59 |
| Slart | samphippen: and lets not forget.. they can put a bag over your head and tickle your feet until you tell them all your passwords.. | 11:59 |
| negge | being able to login as root without a password in recovery mode is the least you should worry about when it comes to security. If some malevolent guy manages to sit down at your computer and wants to do something nsty with it he'll probably take the whole computer anyway... | 11:59 |
| samphippen | Slart, YAY FOR truecrypt-hidden-mode | 11:59 |
| chuy_max | linxeh: I want to specify frequency and hear that wave | 12:00 |
| linxeh | samphippen: if it was top secret stuff you'd be working in an acredited SCIF, so the chances are this wouldnt be an issue | 12:00 |
| Bobb | modify the partition meaning create a new linux partition out of the shortened windows partition | 12:00 |
| negge | chuy_max: you can do that easily with Audacity | 12:00 |
| samphippen | linxeh, i didn't say it was expensive top secret stuff | 12:00 |
| vatts | Bobb: search for "wubi" on cd | 12:00 |
| Slart | jrib: then they will just go in via a vent and use some high tech gear to hang in a wire from the ceiling (not dropping sweat drops on the pressure sensitive floor) and hack it from there.. =) | 12:00 |
| chuy_max | negge, oh really?, I'm downloading it right away | 12:00 |
| negge | chuy_max: just use the Generate Tone thing in the menus and choose which Hz you want it on | 12:00 |
| Slart | samphippen: you think truecrypt will save you when they start tickling?.. | 12:01 |
| negge | chuy_max: it's really easy, I used it to test how deep base my speakers could play | 12:01 |
| negge | and how high too | 12:01 |
| linxeh | samphippen: if it is "top secret" then cost doesnt come into it, although maybe you didnt mean that | 12:01 |
| Bobb | vatts: but does this create a new linux partition? | 12:01 |
| ActionParsnip | vatts: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=164233 | 12:01 |
| samphippen | linxeh, its top secret to me, the individual | 12:01 |
| vatts | Bobb: wubi asks you all | 12:01 |
| samphippen | as it could be a major cashcow for me one day | 12:01 |
| Bobb | vatts: from the previous screen to that one is says it doesn't modify the windows partition, it just makes room for ubuntu | 12:01 |
| Slart | samphippen: if you just have some things you want to keep hidden use truecrypt.. they can still boot the system but your secret stuff will be a little harder to get | 12:03 |
| negge | remember guys, when installing new operating systems which in some way alter your partitions you should always back up your important files just inc ase anything goes wrong... | 12:03 |
| samphippen | Slart, if they start ticlking my feet I give them the password that opens the hidden volume | 12:03 |
| chuy_max | negge, do you think it is accurate?, I'm generating a 30khz wave and I can still hear it perfectly | 12:03 |
| samphippen | Slart, it has some old credit card numbers and stuff in there that are now invalid | 12:03 |
| gaurav__ | negge you are exactly right | 12:03 |
| ActionParsnip | negge: should have a regular backup anyways | 12:04 |
| negge | chuy_max: I have no idea, maybe it depends on the bit-depth you chose for the track and what kind of sound card you have. If you put it to 440 Hz it sounds quite accurate to me (although I'm not that good at this) | 12:04 |
| Slart | samphippen: if someone comes after you they probably have a pretty good idea of what they are searching for.. I don't think they will stop because they find some credit card numbers.. but this is getting very very offtopic | 12:04 |
| chuy_max | negge, also it happens below 20 hz, humans are not supposed to hear below 20hz and above 20khz | 12:04 |
| negge | ActionParsnip: indeed | 12:04 |
| nesw | chuy_max: it's probably aliasing. that's beyond human hearing range and besides, you'd need >60khz sample rate for that | 12:05 |
| chuy_max | negge, mmm, I think you are right, probably it is my audio card | 12:05 |
| Bobb | so is there an a ubuntu installer that creates a linux partition from free windows space anymore? | 12:05 |
| chuy_max | nesw, :o | 12:05 |
| negge | chuy_max: well if you put it to 1 Hz and crank up the volume real high you'll see that th woofers are moving exactly once a second. | 12:05 |
| jrib | samphippen: actually, it would be a pretty good idea if you could have a "compromise-password" that if entered would delete all the data | 12:05 |
| chuy_max | that's interesting | 12:05 |
| Slart | Bobb: the regular one can shrink ntfs partitions, afaik | 12:05 |
| jrib | Bobb: the one on the desktop cd should be able to do that | 12:05 |
| samphippen | jrib, the problem with that is taht the could install a write blocker | 12:05 |
| ActionParsnip | negge: i love these idots with gigs of MP3s and zero backup. Then come whining and crying when the partition fails. Hilarious every time | 12:05 |
| samphippen | jrib, you really need to strap a magnesium flare to your drive for that kind of thing | 12:05 |
| negge | jrib: if someone went as far as to put a bag on his head and tickle his feet until he told them his password I think erasing all the data would make the situation way worse | 12:06 |
| Bobb | jrib: the livecd says "install and uninstall ubuntu like any other application, without the need for a dedicated partition.." | 12:06 |
| japheth | hi there, does any one know of a good alternative to DBDesigner, now that it no longer has an installation candidate in the repos? | 12:06 |

| ActionParsnip | !ask | ronin13 | 12:08 |
| ubottu | ronin13: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 12:08 |
| chuy_max | negge, :(, i'll have to wait til tomorrow to get another pair of speakers, this ones are protected by a cloth | 12:08 |
| ronin13 | i am new in ubuntu | 12:08 |
| chuy_max | I want to see they moving at 1 hz | 12:08 |
| Bobb | jrib: i'm in windows now. but even when i try to boot from the livecd is takes me to a terminal. strange. | 12:08 |
| jrib | tinloaf: there is. Don't know the name offhand, but poke me if you still can't find it | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | chuy_max: you can use a strobe light to see it as well | 12:08 |
| Bobb | jrib: dapper didn't do this IIRC | 12:08 |
| jrib | Bobb: try the alternate cd. You do need to boot from the cd though | 12:09 |
| jrib | !alternate | Bobb | 12:09 |
| ubottu | Bobb: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 12:09 |
| ronin13 | and i have installed amsn, but when i am trying to change my picture there the pc reboots | 12:09 |
| OculusAquilae | hi | 12:09 |
| BoltClock | will intrepid continue to ship with pidgin or will it now include empathy instead? | 12:09 |
| chazco | Hi... how can I view my Ubuntu laptop (1024x600) on my desktop but use the full desktops resolution for it (1440x900)? Used to be able to do this on Windows with VNC or rdesktop, but the VNC stuff built into Ubuntu wont allow it | 12:09 |
| japheth | anyone know of a good alternative to DBDesigner? | 12:09 |
| OculusAquilae | Is there a ubuntu alternate-cd available containing only ubuntu-minimal? | 12:09 |
| ActionParsnip | ronin13: wow crazy. never seen that one. I dont use amsn, you ried pidgin? | 12:09 |
| Bobb | ubottu: that's what i'll do then. thanks | 12:09 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 12:09 |
| wols | chazco: virtual screen sizes. X can do this | 12:09 |
| Bobb | jrib: thanks for the help | 12:09 |
| ronin13 | yes | 12:09 |
| wols | !minimal | OculusAquilae | 12:10 |
| ubottu | OculusAquilae: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 12:10 |
| ActionParsnip | ronin13: any better? | 12:10 |
| chuy_max | ActionParsnip, ok, thanks for the suggestion | 12:10 |
| ronin13 | but i think pidgin doesn't support video-chat | 12:10 |
| chazco | wols - Actually it cant... not in the newer versions. The latest X and modesetting intel driver dont allow virtual resolutions (tried that to make the laptop 1024x768, no luck at all) | 12:10 |

| quaal | i have to sudo eject /dev/cdrom1 | 12:10 |

| ActionParsnip | quaal: unmount it and press the button on the drive | 12:11 |
| ronin13 | :-S | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | quaal: or right click the cd icon on desktop and select eject | 12:11 |
| lukosanthropos | quaal: you could change the permissions to the script | 12:11 |
| OculusAquilae | wols: it seems as there isn't ubuntu-minimal on the cd. I want to use this to build a custom install cd, containing only a few programs and using ubuntu-server and xubuntu-alterate is a bit wasting space | 12:11 |
| OlderGuy_ | Hi anyone know how to increase the font sizes in the menu's of the opera web browser - without changing the screen resolution - I think my eyes are shrinking! | 12:11 |
| quaal | lukosanthropos, where is the script | 12:12 |

| lukosanthropos | I want to install ubuntu on a machine with no cd drive, is there an easy way of installing ubuntu from a flash memory stick | 12:12 |

| ActionParsnip | yao_ziyuan: did you install from repos? | 12:14 |
| yao_ziyuan | ActionParsnip: yes | 12:14 |
| Slart | OlderGuy_: you can change the default font size in system, preferences, appearance, fonts, details.. large values for the dots per inch means larger characters | 12:14 |
| yao_ziyuan | ActionParsnip: but it's not the latest offcial | 12:14 |
| ActionParsnip | yao_ziyuan: then sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade will pull down and update the one you have | 12:14 |
| OculusAquilae | Or does somebody know a possibility to build an install iso from scratch? | 12:14 |
| OculusAquilae | and a tutorial :) | 12:15 |
| ActionParsnip | yao_ziyuan: then if you are using a deb id remove the old | 12:15 |

| Xavura | Pici: Come again? | 13:26 |
| ssdt | is there any other way to do this | 13:26 |
| Pici | Xavura: Do you have the libflashsupport package installed? | 13:26 |
| ssdt | with function keys? | 13:26 |
| Xavura | How would I check? | 13:26 |
| scientus | pici so its just the sound---can you get it without that? | 13:26 |
| meekolope | Zhane: im not familiar with wubi | 13:26 |
| scientus | sound i mean | 13:26 |
| meekolope | !wubi | 13:26 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 13:26 |
| Pici | Xavura: apt-cache policy libflashsupport | 13:27 |
| ssdt | @wuottu, i know that | 13:27 |
| ssdt | i needed the solution to the problem | 13:27 |
| ssdt | there is not any channel for wubi | 13:27 |
| scientus | i think it comes with ubuntu-resstricted-extras | 13:27 |
| uaa1 | hello I've question about synaptic "Generate Download Script" feature | 13:27 |
| scientus | i have that | 13:27 |
| Xavura | Pici: http://pastie.org/260890 | 13:27 |
| ssdt | so i cme here | 13:27 |
| ssdt | came* | 13:28 |
| Pici | ssdt: see http://wubi-installer.org/support.php | 13:28 |
| Zhane | meekolope: i'm not sure what's the problem though.. i just unzipped a file.. and deleted the original file away.. but on my usr.disk... more than the unzipped volume is taken up | 13:28 |
| ssdt | i looked at that | 13:28 |
| ssdt | but no help | 13:28 |
| Pici | Xavura: Heres the deal: If you remove that package, the crashing will probably stop, but you may have issues with concurrent sounds | 13:28 |
| === uaa1 is now known as uaa | ||
| scientus | sddt the windows boot loader is being funky? | 13:29 |
| Xavura | Pici: With sounds for Flash, or with sounds in general? | 13:29 |
| Pici | Xavura: Sounds for flash | 13:29 |
| Xavura | Why is it that there can be no "it works" | 13:29 |
| Xavura | Why does it have to be "you can have either broken sound or crashes" | 13:29 |
| ssdt | no scientus | 13:29 |
| === uaa is now known as Guest30181 | ||
| scientus | will sound work just not all the time pici? | 13:29 |
| Xavura | That's pretty bad for something as common as Flash. | 13:29 |
| scientus | well then i have no idea ssdt | 13:29 |
| Flynsarmy | Xavura, You have adobe to thank for that | 13:29 |
| Blinny | Any reason why autofs wouldn't unmount a share when left un-accessed overnight? | 13:29 |
| Pici | Xavura: Because Adobe can't make a version of Flash that works with modern sound processing. | 13:29 |
| ssdt | it just don't show the option screen | 13:29 |
| ssdt | of ubuntu and windows | 13:29 |
| wols | Xavura: tell it to adobe | 13:29 |
| Xavura | They can | 13:29 |
| Xavura | See: Windows, Mac OS | 13:30 |
| Pici | Xavura: They aren't then. | 13:30 |
| scientus | yeah Xavura they contyrol it | 13:30 |
| Pici | Xavura: Windows isn't linux. | 13:30 |
| Xavura | I know that | 13:30 |
| ssdt | it does right into the windows | 13:30 |
| Xavura | You said they can't make a version of .... etc. | 13:30 |
| === ubuntu is now known as dpxu1 | ||
| Xavura | I said they can, for Windows and Mac OS, so why not Linux -_- | 13:30 |
| scientus | OHHH ssdt go to system-->advanced-->ahh | 13:30 |
| Pici | Xavura: I'm talking about Linux, that should be a given. | 13:30 |
| Xavura | Or why not a community package for Flash, like Ubuntu does for other things? | 13:30 |
| scientus | your bootloader settings in windows ssdt | 13:30 |
| Ienorand | scientus, Xavura: When libflashsupport is installed flash becomes unstable, when it is uninstalled, you can't use sound with both flash and for example VLC, so you'll have to close and restart before switching what aplication you want sound with, this is the sucky part of Hardy... | 13:30 |
| scientus | thats your problem | 13:30 |
| error404notfound | from where can I get official sources.lst? | 13:30 |
| scientus | you ahve to set it to allways show the bootloader probably | 13:30 |
| wols | Xavura: there are several. gnash, swfdec, etc | 13:30 |
| Xavura | Ienorand: But one app using sound at a time will work? | 13:30 |
| scientus | i forget exactally where that is but it is in settings | 13:31 |
| scientus | i mean system | 13:31 |
| Flynsarmy | Xavura, There are a few of them they just arent up to scratch yet | 13:31 |
| Ienorand | Xavura: Normally yes... | 13:31 |
| Xavura | Flynsarmy: wols: Thanks, I'll wait until they mature | 13:31 |
| Xavura | Ienorand: Define normally. | 13:31 |
| scientus | Ienorand, before in gutsy i had flash where flash liked to use another sound card, but i fixed that and everyhting worked | 13:31 |
| Xavura | I only ever use one application that uses sound at once | 13:31 |
| Xavura | I can deal with that, depending on what you mean by "normally". | 13:32 |

| Xavura | wers: #compiz-fusion | 13:32 |
| ssdt | scientus, is it in windows? | 13:32 |

| jrib | P3X-018: you avoid doing so. Use APT | 13:38 |

| tlm | I'm installing hardy on an Eee PC 1000. It has no CD drive so I'm installing from a USB stick with "ubuntu-8.04.1-alternate-i386.iso". Everything is fine until it tries to set up postfix, which fails with this error: "postfix/sendmail[2769]: fatal: could not find any active network interfaces". I tried going on to install GRUB, but that just repeats the postfix configuration and fails again. I disabled the "Ma | 13:40 |

| unop | soulchild, the newer xorg tries to automagically detect and configure hardware .. there is little need for xorg.conf | 14:48 |

| meekolope | bnix: in syntax or parameters | 14:48 |
| bnix | it does the same thing with a bash script | 14:48 |
| erUSUL | soulchild: modern xservers do all the runtime autodetecting/configuration the can. So a verbose xorg.conf is not needed | 14:48 |
| incorrect | Pici: nope i do not want to do that | 14:48 |

| xintron | unop: why 20 2? | 16:25 |
| unop | xintron, priority and runlevel | 16:25 |
| xintron | unop: so, can I use update-rc.d to add apps to run at boot (for example unrealircd)? | 16:25 |

| ulaas | unop: i have problems with my wireless device on my laptop. it locks the my system when it is enabled. i testet intrepid alpha and it seems to be ok | 16:30 |
| unop | yao_ziyuan, that supports unix permissions atleast | 16:30 |
| unop | xintron, the better way would be to use update-rc.d there .. as apache is already installed as a service | 16:30 |
| unop | xintron, the problem with the /etc/rc.local is that it is not aware of runlevels | 16:31 |
| jesus_christoffe | jag mår så jävla bra vid midjan och i midjan som hon sa till mig | 16:31 |

| xbxb | Hey, I want to install Windows on my system that has already ubuntu on it. What should I do so that I'm able to reinstall the linux bootloader after WinSetup has overwritten my MBR? | 16:41 |
| Pici | !grub | xbxb | 16:42 |
| ubottu | xbxb: 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 | 16:42 |
| xbxb | thank you Pici | 16:42 |
| joanki123 | what version of ubuntu is currently out tnow? | 16:43 |
| Entropy51423 | Here is the script that is giving me trouble http://paste.ubuntu.com/40936/plain/ | 16:43 |
| uffo | do ubuntu let laptop lower cpu to 900mhz when idle (little activity) or that depends only of windows, how that works. Esprimo 5535 core2duo | 16:43 |
| TJ-Linux | Hey I want to run a basic web server for testing my website, but I don't want to run it in my main ubuntu installation for fear of opening up my computer to attackers (I'm sure the software is secure, it's my configuration of it that may not be so). Would virtual box or vmware with ubuntu server be a good option? | 16:44 |
| MikeSeth | uffo: depends on your settings | 16:44 |
| uffo | default ubuntu install 8.04.1 | 16:44 |
| Entropy51423 | tj-linux, you don't have to bring your site live | 16:44 |
| xintron | unop: ok, what runlevels would you recommend me setting on unrealircd and anope? | 16:45 |
| typedestereo | on hh, I had to use ndiswrapper and a certain driver to hook up my wireless card...the signal strength is listed as 85%, but I can't connect to anything and my router lists it as an ethernet device (though at one point, I was able to use firefox with no issue...chat programs were a no-go) | 16:45 |
| Entropy51423 | you could test it locally on a different port | 16:45 |
| typedestereo | suggestions? | 16:45 |
| TJ-Linux | entropy: and prevent any remote access? | 16:45 |
| TJ-Linux | do you know of a guide for doing this? | 16:45 |
| Entropy51423 | Yes | 16:45 |
| user339 | hi. I need help. I'm trying to get my ubuntu 8.04 with dualsceen to work (ati x800). One 24" on dvi output and one 15" on vga. The thing is i installed the ati drivers with envyng successfully and am able to configure the graphicscard using the catalyst control center, but everytime i use the option big desoktop wich sould enable dualscreen and not clne mode onece I restart everything is back to clone output | 16:45 |
| Entropy51423 | just about any website development book | 16:45 |
| [0x41] | when i try to view files in my cdrom drive it tells me, couldn't display /media/cdrom0 .... also won't eject the cd any ideas ? | 16:46 |
| Entropy51423 | I learned of this trick at my local library | 16:46 |
| unop | xintron, 2 - 5 .. thought you would probably need to create initscripts for both those. | 16:46 |
| TJ-Linux | heh ok, i'll figure it out, thank Entropy51423 | 16:46 |
| TJ-Linux | thanks I mean | 16:46 |
| xintron | unop: yeah, I know. Got a good site on how to create initscripts? | 16:46 |
| user339 | and somehow big desktop seems to work while i'm in the logon screen.. which means I can move the mouse from one desktop to another | 16:46 |
| Abracadabra | hi, can someone tell me what {} stand for? | 16:47 |
| unop | xintron, not really though you can have a read in these two files /etc/init.d/{README,skeleton} | 16:48 |
| unop | Abracadabra, in what context? | 16:48 |
| Abracadabra | I am wondering what this command does: "sudo rm -rf {} \;" | 16:48 |
| Abracadabra | APPARENTLY TO DELETE DIRECTORIES RECURSIVELY | 16:48 |
| Abracadabra | ooops< sorry for the caps | 16:48 |
| unop | Abracadabra, on its own.. that command means nothing .. but i presume that is part of a find command | 16:48 |
| user339 | any idea? | 16:49 |
| theom3ga | hi there | 16:49 |
| * Alan_M shakes head and looks down | 16:49 | |
| qtguy | #webkit | 16:49 |
| unop | bazhang, was that warranted? | 16:49 |
| [0x41] | when i try to view files in my cdrom drive it tells me, couldn't display /media/cdrom0 .... also won't eject the cd any ideas ? | 16:49 |
| xintron | unop: so, I can basically copy /etc/init.d/skeleton and make my own (with the corresponding functions for unrealircd {start|stop|etc...} and then use the "update-rc.d unreal start 20 3"? | 16:49 |
| unop | xintron, right, exactly | 16:50 |
| kc8pxy | unop: i would hope so. because sudo rm -rf is probably the most dangerous combo, in the wrong context :) | 16:50 |
| xintron | unop: oh, good. So, if I set unreal to 20 3, should anope have like 21 3 (starting just afterwards? | 16:50 |
| unop | xintron, though you might want to start these much later in the boot process .. so update-rc.d unreal start 70 2 3 4 5 . | 16:50 |
| bazhang | kc8pxy, please dont type that here | 16:51 |
| unop | kc8pxy, that could quite legitimately been a very valid command. | 16:51 |
| unop | have* | 16:51 |
| xintron | unop: ah, could you write what you would use for unreal and anope then (anope should start later than unreal) | 16:51 |
| FreddyGonzo | Hi folks. I have really bad audio performance with mplayer/smplayer. It's like half the volume I have with totem (doesn't matter if I use totem-gstreamer or totem-xine). Why is that and how can I change that? | 16:51 |
| unop | xintron, update-rc.d anope start 75 2 3 4 5 . | 16:51 |
| GleepGlop | I got a problem with Nautilus and SMB shares | 16:52 |
| xintron | unop: ok, thanks :) | 16:52 |
| user339 | at least a suggestion? :( | 16:53 |
| yao_ziyuan | what does it mean when apt-get says "xxx packages are kept back" | 16:53 |
| Entropy51423 | I need help with running a script here is the script, here is the script: http://paste.ubuntu.com/40936/plain/, here is the errors it gives me http://paste.ubuntu.com/40940/plain/, and here is my source for the process http://forums.urbanterror.net/index.php/topic,10232.0.html | 16:53 |
| unop | xintron, actually .. there is more to this update-rc.d command .. it does not stop the services when rebooting .. read the update-rc.d manpage for some examples | 16:53 |
| GleepGlop | When I go to Places --> Connect to Server. and enter a share: No Application is registered as handling this file | 16:53 |
| xintron | unop: how is that possible? | 16:54 |
| Pici | yao_ziyuan: It usually means that you used apt-get upgrade and those files have new dependencies, which would only get pulled in if you used apt-get dist-upgrade. | 16:54 |
| yao_ziyuan | Pici: ok | 16:54 |
| unop | xintron, because when you issue a reboot .. init actually changes runlevel to 6 .. and there is no action for your service in runlevel 6 | 16:55 |
| arno | hello all | 16:55 |
| xintron | ah. ok | 16:55 |
| unop | xintron, update-rc.d anope start 75 2 3 4 5 . stop 25 0 1 6 . | 16:55 |
| user339 | is it possible that it has something to do with the ati drivers? anyone? | 16:56 |

| Entropy51423 | nnulll, try alt + f2 and type xkill and then hit enter, click on the program giving you problems | 17:08 |
| digifuzz | nnnulll: You can also type: killall -KILL <prog.cmdname> | 17:08 |
| Kipposaurus | Hello | 17:09 |
| user339 | TJ-Linux, ok thanks, I'll try it | 17:09 |
| Pici | Entropy51423: Depending on what you're trying to do, #bash might be a better place, but try asking your actual script question here. | 17:09 |
| TJ-Linux | that's about the extent of what I can help with, but if you still have difficulty, try asking again | 17:09 |
| digifuzz | nnnulll: or find the process id: (px aux) and kill the process by pid (kill -KILLL <pid>) | 17:10 |
| user339 | TJ-Linux, ok :) | 17:10 |

| scientus | i would have to drop out of gdm even to rename the executable | 17:26 |

| Crowley2 | phoenixz: ndiswrapper + original driver | 17:37 |
| unop | drojan1, your router might be accessible by ssh - in which case it probably doesn't portforward properly. | 17:37 |
| nnull | lol why do u need t use gconf for that | 17:38 |
| phoenixz | kitche: crap.. well, thanks anyway | 17:38 |
| usser | drojan1, hm, and port 22 is forwarded? | 17:38 |
| kitche | Studiosus: you don't since desktop effects doesn't have anything to do with gnome, unless you mean gnome's desktop effects | 17:38 |

| gdsx | Hi, all. I'm trying to compile some 32-bit code, and it's complaining about not finding libs, which is happening because libFoo.so links don't exist under /usr/lib32/. How do I get them to be created? (I already tried manually adding /usr/lib32 to ld.so.conf and rerunning ldconfig, but that didn't do it) | 17:38 |
| drojan1 | usser: I guess because it prompts a message to put the password, so it means that ssh on 22 is being forwarded... | 17:38 |
| usser | gdsx, u probably need to install 32 bit libraries from the repositories | 17:38 |
| Studiosus | I mean desktop effects which can be enabled in GNOME thru System > Preferences > Appearance | 17:39 |
| gdsx | usser: the libraries are there; the appropriate symlinks are not | 17:39 |
| Studiosus | kitche: I mean desktop effects which can be enabled in GNOME thru System > Preferences > Appearance | 17:39 |
| vipaca | Im hoping to find out what "Unexpected error: Internal error" really means | 17:39 |
| ShackJack | Studiosus: You can disbale them in the same manner.... If you want to you GNOME's compositing, that is in gconf | 17:39 |
| usser | gdsx, are u on 64 bit system? | 17:39 |
| drojan1 | unop: I don't know what you mean... my router is a comtrend 536 | 17:39 |

| drojan1 | unop: it is accesible through the browser on 8080 port but I don't know about ssh | 17:40 |
| Studiosus | ShackJack: I can't disable them thru menu, navigation is broken when effects activated | 17:41 |
| usser | drojan1, what hes trying to say is that your router may have built in ssh server which responds to your outside request and since you never set the password for it, it just disconnects u | 17:41 |

| ShackJack | Studiosus: (Alt+F2, then gnome-terminal) | 17:42 |
| unop | drojan1, try this. ssh router | 17:42 |
| usser | gdsx, how do you compile your code, can u give me your gcc line? | 17:42 |
| Studiosus | thx, will try | 17:42 |
| ShackJack | Studiosus: Or alt+f2 then that program I just said ;) | 17:42 |
| unop | drojan1, or. ssh $ip_address_of_router | 17:42 |
| vipaca | I guess thats a no one knows | 17:42 |
| gdsx | usser: the issue is that, for instance, /usr/lib32/libX11.so doesn't exist (though /usr/lib32/libX11.so.6 does). so doing something like `gcc -L/usr/lib32 -lX11 foo.c -o foo` won't work, because the symlink from libX11.so.6 to libX11.so doesn't exist | 17:43 |

| * P3L|C4N0 o/ | 17:44 | |
| drojan1 | unop: but my question is...doesn't it happen because the router is told to forward incoming connections on 22 to the linux box? | 17:44 |
| unop | drojan1, right, so your router uses ssh as an alternate way of accessing it .. perhaps you need to disable ssh or use another port to listen on | 17:45 |
| usser | gdsx, i see... can u try to compile with -m32 switch? | 17:45 |
| unop | drojan1, yea, but your router is confused about what to do when it encounters ssh traffic -- whether to forward them to it's ssh server or to forward them to your server .. it looks like it does the former | 17:45 |
| dashnu | genius: put the password right after the -pS3cr3tpass | 17:46 |
| Studiosus | ShackJack: effects became 'workable' after switching from X (Ctrl-Alt-F1) and back to X | 17:46 |

| unop | drojan1, hmm, that's odd. you should be prompted for the router's password there | 18:27 |
| wasup | bliz0r, I don't think you know what full screen means... the bottom and top navigation bars dissapear | 18:27 |
| unop | drojan1, or perhaps not .. the router might not be listening for ssh connections on the WAN interface. | 18:28 |

| carandraug | pedro: when you run "aptitude search unrar-free", an "i" in the begining means it's installed. A "p" means it's not | 18:53 |
| Xcerca | vishzilla awseme , thanks | 18:54 |

| holyguyver | danbhfive, Hello, years ago when I used Windows I installed a freeware virtual printer with ghostscript at it's core. This VP allowed me to not only print to PDF but also que print jobs up so that I could later merge them into one pdf document. Now is there any way that I can make a VP on linux give me the option to merge print jobs? | 18:54 |
| unimatrix9 | here is the url to check out http://wifi-radar.systemimager.org/ | 18:54 |
| Zamadatix | thank you!!!!! | 18:54 |
| danbhfive | holyguyver: its ok, just dont ask too often. The point is, if no one knows the answer, then they won't say anything. They arent ignoring you | 18:55 |
| hdz | !password | 18:55 |
| unimatrix9 | i hope it helps | 18:55 |
| ubottu | Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 18:55 |
| carandraug | pedro: then I don't know why you can't use Karchiver. I don't use KDE but from what I read it should support rar files. At least you can do it in the terminal | 18:55 |
| holyguyver | Well danbhfive can you help me then? | 18:55 |
| pedro | carandraug: can i uninstall karchiver now? | 18:55 |

| lee_ | unimatrix9: yeah, the program is called unrar, unrar e <rarfile> | 18:56 |
| unimatrix9 | or kde terminal | 18:56 |
| danbhfive | holyguyver: all you want to do is merge a pdf file? | 18:56 |
| holyguyver | danbhfive, No | 18:56 |
| fbc | unop, is line 2 supposed to read 'set -x' or 'set -x #' ? | 18:56 |
| lee_ | unimatrix9: oh, read that wrong and thought it was a question :| | 18:56 |
| holyguyver | danbhfive, I can already do that | 18:56 |

| holyguyver | danbhfive, It is called simplicity & ease of use. | 18:58 |
| carandraug | pedro: no idea. I use mplayer to watch movies and I recommend it in favor of totem. Since you use KDE, you can try SMplayer which is probably the best skin for mplayer if you want a GUI for all the options | 18:58 |
| unop | lee_, update-rc.d takes care of removing links for you | 18:58 |

| unimatrix9 | use__ edit xorg config and set it to nv driver | 19:00 |
| unop | fbc, i'm sorry .. i forgot that set -e let's the script run even if it encounters errors .. so what has happened is cheese has successfully been installed, so we need to try this out on another postinst script | 19:00 |
| lee_ | so, if I move /etc/init.d/mysql to a backup location, and then run update-rc.d mysql remove - mysql will be disabled at startup? | 19:00 |

| carandraug | php6th: check if Wine is using wine. Try switching for oss | 19:21 |
| usser | php6th, run it from the terminal, see what errors it spits out, also make sure u have latest wine wine --version should report 1.1.3 | 19:21 |
| babo | danbhfive, why would it matter ? it works fine at other access points ... | 19:21 |
| babo | works fine at home | 19:21 |
| php6th | DEViUS: usser ive installed ATI using the ubuntu ENVYNG | 19:21 |
| babo | danbhfive, why would it connect like that and then not be able to access it's own network ? | 19:21 |
| babo | i lose hours on ubuntu ... | 19:22 |
| Lemont | how can you change what driver ubuntu uses for a video card? I can't find it under Applications > System > Hardware drivers | 19:22 |
| babo | solving issues like this :-( | 19:22 |
| php6th | wine-1.0 oh shit | 19:22 |
| danbhfive | babo: you said the problem was that it works on windows, not ubuntu, right? | 19:22 |
| usser | uffo, oh sorry, cpu scaling should be enabled by default u dont have to do anything special but if u want to manually control it u have to install a program\ | 19:22 |

| babo | danbhfive, sorry. i dual boot the laptop. the windows boot works fine. the linux boot will access the net no problem at home, but on this access point it seems to login but not actually access anything ... | 19:23 |
| crdlb | Lemont: make sure that the 'linux-generic' package is installed, then check the Hardware Drivers manager again | 19:23 |
| unimatrix9 | php6th , it should work with ubuntu 8.04 and default wine, yust copy your windows install of frozen throne and the latest patch wich removes the need of the cdrom | 19:23 |
| php6th | unimatrix9: where should i copy it from? i dont have windows | 19:23 |
| danbhfive | babo: so, it works ok on other access points? and which driver are you using? | 19:23 |
| Lemont | crdlb: ok, and I can confirm that in synaptics? right? | 19:23 |
| kalkan | how does automount work? | 19:23 |

| cdecarlo | last I heard there was a bug with the 8.04 Network install, is there still a problem with it? | 19:24 |
| uffo | usser: in windows i did not installed anything, i tought that bios regulates cpu speed depending of how much power it needs, it has 2 modes 900mhz 50% of power 1.5 ghz full activity | 19:24 |
| danbhfive | babo: well, anyway, this is just a guess. I have found that if your connection sucks, windows can reconnect like a champ, whereas ubuntu sucks great big balls of cheese. I was having ubuntu lockup over this issue. I solved it by picking a different channel for the router, one that gave a stronger signal | 19:25 |
| DEViUS | rambo3 could you please assist me in editing my fstab file http://pastebin.com/d76530015 | 19:25 |
| unimatrix9 | php6th oh, hehe | 19:25 |
| babo | danbhfive, it's an intel 3945ABG Network connection, how can i find the router ? | 19:25 |
| Dedicated | crdlb: thx i will google now a round again :) | 19:25 |
| babo | err ... driver | 19:25 |
| usser | uffo, well its not the bios that scales the cpu its the job of an operating system windows itself cannot do it, u probably had some drivers installed that allowed it, such support is built into linux u just have to install a tiny applet that should allow u to do it | 19:25 |

| php6th | usser: i tried, the problem is that... the windows became black i cant do nothing, ill try again | 19:28 |
| babo | danbhfive, i don't get it. why would it work with one access point and not another ? surely that would be driver indepedent ... ? | 19:28 |
| danbhfive | babo: what release are you running? | 19:28 |

| AALEX | thnks | 19:31 |
| rambo3 | DEViUS, yeah , but what are you trying to do ? If you want rw on windows parition you need ntfs-3g , | 19:31 |
| danbhfive | babo: well, you d/l the cd in windows (I assume you are in windows now), and then do a clean install, if you have a separate /home, all your settings will be saved | 19:31 |
| carandraug | kalkan: you start Ubuntu it checks a file named fstab to automount your partitions. If you switched them you'll have to edit that file. I can give you a hand if you want | 19:31 |
| php6th | WTF WORKS | 19:31 |
| gaintsura | could anyone help me get ATI Catalyst to function again? it worked a few months ago, had it configured right and then after an upgrade (I don't know how long ago that might have been) it stopped functioning 'Either there is no ATI driver, or the driver is not configured properly'. I reconfigured xorg.conf following the setup for compiz | 19:31 |
| danbhfive | babo: do you want to upgrade to hardy? there is another option | 19:31 |
| php6th | gaintsura: use NVIDIANG | 19:32 |
| Dedicated | crdlb: did once some months ago, because the whole compiz thing was broken, but came back today, removed any compiz related file or folder and installed it from the repos. its now running except the keybinding (and the icons in the config listing) | 19:32 |
| gaintsura | php6th: uhm.. ATI | 19:32 |
| gaintsura | not nvidia | 19:32 |
| babo | danbhfive, not really | 19:32 |
| rambo3 | DEViUS, UUID is for if you changed drive to some other cable , like from /dev/sda to sdb it would still be mounted , so use one or the other | 19:32 |
| Dedicated | crdlb: i wonder too why it will take something from local/ | 19:32 |
| kalkan | carandraug: yes i need help, but i have other problems too, so i think it could be solved at the same time. Problems appeared when I installed opensuse | 19:32 |
| php6th | gaintsura: i know, the application is called NVDIANG | 19:32 |
| crdlb | Dedicated: well, ccsm is still installed in /usr/local, which means that's the install from source | 19:32 |
| DEViUS | rambo3: because of this (i guess) my partitions dont mount on startup | 19:32 |
| babo | danbhfive, surely there's a better way ? isn't it possible to just debug the issue ? | 19:32 |
| carandraug | kalkan: what problems? | 19:32 |
| gaintsura | php6th: and where can I get it? and what does nvidiang have to do with ATI catalyst? | 19:33 |
| foo | hm, I can't seem to get my dell latitude c610 with ubuntu/fluxbox to suspend when I close the lid. I've tried some googling without much luck. It just freezes when I run the suspend command, when I close the lid it just blacks the screen and doesn't really suspend. Any ideas? Thanks | 19:33 |
| danbhfive | babo: well, yeah, but the fix would be added to a later release, like hardy | 19:33 |
| st1650 | How can I know which console apps start at boot ? In gentoo there was the rc-update application, what's the ubuntu equivalent ? | 19:33 |

| MolePrince | Howdy, I have a weird question. I have a machine dual-booting Ubuntu and Vista. There is one large shared data drive I need to access from each. Would it be more reliable to format it as fat32 so Ubuntu can read it as vfat, or as ext3 and try to use one of the ext2fsd drives for Windows to read it that way? | 19:39 |
| DEViUS | rambo3: affirmitive | 19:39 |

| php6th | MolePrince: yeah, it will corrupt and destroy your hard drive, but this happens to all ubuntu systems that contains Vista | 19:40 |
| rambo3 | DEViUS, check if there are those maps in /meida folder arch windows , and so on , if they are not there create them | 19:40 |
| gaintsura | php6th: got that right | 19:40 |
| carandraug | MolePrince: no problem | 19:40 |
| usser | MolePrince, it works although certain features are missing for instance u cant run vmware virtual machines off of ntfs driver or run certain games under linux from it, but general read write support is pretty nice | 19:40 |
| MolePrince | usser: It's my media library and data dump. Only gaming I do is under Windows. | 19:41 |

| TJ-42 | does the root user have a trash in ubuntu 8.04, and if so, how do I empty it? | 19:50 |
| JohnK | GrnFraggle I might | 19:50 |
| mantise | hi again | 19:50 |
| kalkan | carandraug, but i have pasted | 19:50 |
| php6th | usser: im in battlenet ! WOHOO!! | 19:50 |
| mantise | if i want my normal user to be able to write in /var/www, what do i do ? | 19:50 |
| mantise | im in the user setttings and group settings now, right ? | 19:50 |
| GrnFraggle | Yeah JohnK. i've tried the basics, lsusb shows the palm but i can't get gnome-pilot or jpilot to connect | 19:50 |
| Flannel | mantise: add them to the www-data group, and then make /var/www writable by groups | 19:50 |
| unop | TJ-42, root shouldn't have a trash .. unless you used a graphical application under sudo | 19:50 |
| carandraug | kalkan: open the link that ubotu gave you. Paste the output of the command I gave you for that window, put your nick and then click in the button past. Then give me the URL of the page that appears | 19:50 |
| or4n | mantise: are you sure userdir isn't enough for you? | 19:51 |
| usser | php6th, great does it lag? | 19:51 |
| mantise | or4n: i need to edit my www files as user.. not as root | 19:51 |
| rambo3 | DEViUS, ok now arch , options are: users,rw,auto dump is: 0 and pass is: 0 | 19:51 |
| unop | TJ-42, sudo rm -r /root/.local/share/Trash/* perhaps | 19:51 |
| Dedicated | usser: i have, but when disabling the window decoration module in ccsm (which loads the emerald) i dont have any window decoration at all | 19:51 |
| mantise | or4n: when i need to upload pages | 19:51 |
| carandraug | kalkan: I need the link for that page now | 19:51 |
| JohnK | GrnFraggle it drove me crazy. have you installed j-pilot? | 19:51 |
| mantise | Flannel: so make a new grp or mana www-data grp ? | 19:51 |
| wx9j_ | how can I download a flash video from a site ? | 19:51 |
| mantise | Flannel: or add grp www-data ? | 19:51 |
| GrnFraggle | JohnK yup, same behavior as gnome-pilot. | 19:51 |
| DEViUS | rambo3: by the way i have arch linux installed there, is it goin to be affected in anyway? | 19:52 |
| mantise | Flannel: and add my user there ? | 19:52 |
| Flannel | mantise: adduser username www-data | 19:52 |
| rambo3 | DEViUS, no | 19:52 |
| Flannel | mantise: www-data already exists (as a user, and a group) | 19:52 |
| GrnFraggle | isn't this an ubuntu chat? | 19:52 |
| davy | tux | 19:52 |
| mantise | Flannel: no it doesnt | 19:52 |
| Flannel | GrnFraggle: no, chatting is in #ubuntu-offtopic, this is a support channel | 19:52 |
| DEViUS | rambo3: done, | 19:52 |
| JohnK | GrnFraggle did you use install user in j-pilot? | 19:53 |
| usser | Dedicated, i suggest u try fusion-icon | 19:53 |
| Flannel | mantise: Do you have apache2 installed? | 19:53 |
| GrnFraggle | JohnK it won't install | 19:53 |
| mantise | Flannel: yep, installed and using apache2 | 19:53 |
| usser | Dedicated, its a nice little app that sits in systray allows you to control alot of compiz options | 19:53 |
| jpotex | Does Ubuntu have a firewall activated as default? | 19:53 |
| Flannel | mantise: then www-data exists... unless they've changed the username for Hardy. do this: groups www-data | 19:53 |
| GrnFraggle | JohnK should i hit hotsync b4 i open jpilot? | 19:53 |
| Flannel | mantise: you should get www-data : www-data | 19:53 |
| John0Neil | I need help finding file on a NTFS drive. The MBR/Partition seem to be fucked up. The drive is mounted in Ubuntu 8.04 but no file appear on it. Same if I mount manually with ntfs-3g.

| php6th | carandraug: DEViUS usser im in Battlenet, THANK YOU!! | 19:54 |
| carandraug | jpotex: yes. It's iptables | 19:54 |
| usser | jpotex, yes every linux distibution comes with a firewall called iptables | 19:54 |
| mantise | Flannel: in a terminal ? | 19:54 |
| Flannel | John0Neil: please watch your language | 19:54 |
| Flannel | mantise: yes | 19:54 |
| DEViUS | php6th: anytime | 19:54 |

| usser | jpotex, yes | 19:54 |
| uffo | Flannel: i installed ndiswrapper with gui from synaptic and loaded my atheros wifi drivers but it still not showing wifi hotspot on network browser, i have hardware present and card enabled | 19:54 |
| mantise | Flannel: i get this answer: www-data | 19:54 |
| carandraug | jpotex: yes | 19:54 |
| jpotex | usser: How may I turn that off? | 19:54 |
| mantise | Flannel: yes | 19:54 |
| rambo3 | DEViUS, ok you deleted CDrom line . put it back there (2lines) and paste so i can see new one | 19:54 |
| GrnFraggle | Flannel, is it ok to private chat someone in here? | 19:54 |
| Flannel | mantise: yeah, you have a www-data user, who is in www-data group. It might not show up in users and groups, but that's fine. sudo adduser username www-data | 19:55 |
| JohnK | GrnFraggle that part is hazy to me now, I think so | 19:55 |
| GrnFraggle | johnk ok, i'll try again | 19:55 |
| usser | jpotex, install a frontend that lets u modify it easily something like a firestarted | 19:55 |
| usser | jpotex, err firestarter | 19:55 |
| Flannel | GrnFraggle: Assuming they're ok with it yes. But we try and keep support stuff in the channel, it's safer that way. | 19:55 |
| jpotex | usser: But I want to turn it off :) | 19:55 |
| mantise | Flannel: and then the user can write in /var/www ? | 19:55 |
| carandraug | jpotex: "man iptables". You mwy want to install shorewall as iptables can be a bit tricky to work with. Shorewall is just a front-end for iptables | 19:55 |
| kalkan | carandraug, http://paste.ubuntu.com/40984/ | 19:55 |

| jikuty | hi .. what is the best way to save/view .doc and .docx files in ubuntu? i work on group projects where we share these kinds of files, and i need a very reliable way (formatting wise) to view and save them in ubuntu. any suggestions? | 19:56 |
| Flannel | mantise: No, then you still need to modify permissions of those things (/var/www is actually owned by root) but then everything else defaults to 644, you need to make it 664, so people in the group (you) can write to it. | 19:56 |
| DEViUS | rambo3: what about the <dump> <pass> for both ntfs partitions http://pastebin.com/d5df8da76 | 19:56 |

| jpotex | usser: Ok, good :) | 19:56 |
| Flannel | mantise: so, chown /var/www to www-data:www-data and then g+r them | 19:56 |

| carandraug | kalkan: how did you exited cfdisk? After the changes you have to select write so it saves them. Also, I'm sorry but I gave you a command wrong. The "f" in the "ls" command" should be a "F" could you do it again "ls -lF /dev/disk/by-uuid/" and the "sudo fdisk -l" after you made sda2 bootable? | 20:16 |
| GrnFraggle | no, it's an M130. LSUSB shows the device, nothing connects to it | 20:17 |
| JohnK | GrnFraggle: Can you go to a computer where you have not tried a palm connection yet? If so try this: 1.install modprobe visor 2. Install j-pilot 3. run mode probe visor 4. start j-piolt. 5. clik on File ---> install 6. sync your Palm to the desktop and do a backup | 20:17 |
| unop | DEViUS, that still doesn't address the fact that you don't have permissions over the volume -- and if you change permissions you upset your arch install | 20:17 |

| amal029 | gaintsura: isn't it just restarting X, if you use gdm: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 20:19 |
| carandraug | kat: your problem has most likely something to do with pulseaudio. Take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio | 20:19 |

| jonaskoelker | Hi all. My USB keyboard doesn't work on my ubuntu laptop. Anyone care to help me find out what the problem is and how to fix it? | 20:20 |
| carandraug | kalkan: did you start cfdisk with sudo? Is sda2 mounted? | 20:20 |
| kat | carandraug, thanks. i know im using alsa though. so its weird that it has something to do with pulseaudio. but ill check it out | 20:20 |

| Bucketface | Oh well | 20:29 |
| carandraug | kalkan: ok. See you in a minute then | 20:29 |
| remoteCTRL | gaintsura: there is a switch in the esplanations to the command, something like --initial-config or so, it is one of the very first, that one makes sure that the apropriate values to use the driver on startup a set in xservers configuration file | 20:30 |
| DEViUS | rambo3: it did, i even booted my arch to check functionality, everything is stable | 20:30 |

| GrnFraggle | bofh80 ok, i tried (based on info from this post) to verify that i have a port mapped under /dev for the palm. when i do ls -l it shows me a list of folders, none of which pertain to palm anything | 20:32 |

| andriy | there is a problem with 1280x800 screen resolution | 20:32 |
| jonaskoelker | <---- is marvin the paranoid android atm | 20:32 |
| remoteCTRL | ProximaCent: your graphics adapter has to support audio output on the hdmi card, probably your nvidia card does not so you need to use an additional audio cable in case... | 20:33 |

| GrnFraggle | bofh80 please explain how i can view the ports /ttyUSB1 or /ttyUSB0 | 20:34 |
| remoteCTRL | gaintsura: do you have a second section device in there with its driver named vesa? | 20:34 |
| GrnFraggle | bofh80 i don't think i have them. no error when unhooking palm from computer | 20:34 |
| remoteCTRL | gaintsura: did you do that just now or was that in there before? | 20:34 |
| ProximaCent | remoteCTRL: thanks for the note, yes i thought this is related to the graphic card, i installed latest nvidia driver from nvidia , something like 17xx . cat /proc/asound/cards does not show hdmi out, is the kernel not supporting because its not shown there ? | 20:35 |
| bofh80 | GrnFraggle, ignore that part, i would just go through the motions he suggests, which is to connect it, start the gnome-applet, disconnect it, wait, reconnect it, then manually kill of the processes, then start them again | 20:35 |
| ProximaCent | ati is shown there as hdmi on another laptop | 20:35 |
| gaintsura | remoteCTRL: no there was no driver named vesa, and I did fglrx yesterday | 20:35 |
| kat | carandraug, well thanks anyway. if anyone knows the answer i hope to hear it :D | 20:35 |
| remoteCTRL | gaintsura: if option one logout and in again then it is supposed to work | 20:35 |

| gaintsura | remoteCTRL: it didn't thats what I'm telling you. which is why I'm asking to begin with, if it worked after logout/login, I wouldn't be asking | 20:36 |
| remoteCTRL | ProximaCent: as said before first of all your graphics card needs to support that on the hardware side, as it is an nvidia card chances are that it doesn't | 20:36 |
| kalkan | carandraug, ok i have reboot | 20:36 |
| carandraug | kat: have you considered other MSN clients? | 20:36 |
| ProximaCent | remoteCTRL: ok good, so far it needed to be supported from nvidia. thats bad.. thanks anyway | 20:37 |
| hanif | mp4 now read only cannot delete or write to, also cannot change permissions, even under root. Any ideas? | 20:37 |

| gaintsura | remoteCTRL: my applogies... it just seems like I get the same answer over and over no matter what I tell people | 20:37 |
| remoteCTRL | ProximaCent: sorry for the bad news, but as said the solution is an additional audio cable to connect your computer with what ever other device... | 20:37 |
| kat | carandraug, could try some others | 20:37 |
| kat | carandraug, what do you use? | 20:37 |

| gaintsura | remoteCTRL: I reinstalled ubuntu about 5 months ago. configured the drivers and they worked fine.. between then and now, upgrades were performed, and it stopped working. I reset the xorg.conf to original installation, and started over, which is where I'm at now | 20:46 |

| ubottu | 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. :-) | 20:55 |
| amal029 | that's because xinit uses the Xinitrc file, I don't use a gdm or kdm or anything you can put whatever you want in your ~/.xinitrc file and that will startup when you start X with xinit, if you are looking gdm/kdm support ask someone else. | 20:55 |

| gaintsura | remoteCTRL: which ones? | 20:59 |
| pkaps | gaintsura: actually i idid that. I deactivated the preset -non-ubuntu-supported-drivers, installed the latest madwifi and "modprobed" ath_pci but i couldn't get any wireless networks to negotiate. | 20:59 |
| remoteCTRL | gaintsura: can you once more define what actually is not running? | 20:59 |
| amal029 | Dabbu: A hack would be /etc/rc.local: /etc/init.d/networking restart | 20:59 |

| remoteCTRL | gaintsura: well there are about 15 in there and from about 10 i have no idea what it does... | 21:00 |
| pkaps | is there any possibility hp g7060 has a specific/problematic wireless adapter that is not covered by this workaround with madwifi, or is it definitely my fault for not making it work? | 21:01 |
| carandraug | kalkan: sda4 which was once an ext3 partition is now swap. You also need to change it | 21:01 |
| spunk | Hello, I have a slightly unrelated question; do you know of any website that post news about FOSS releases. Like freshmeat.net... Sorry if OT. | 21:01 |
| gaintsura | pkaps: check the madwifi site to make sure your specific atheros card is listed | 21:01 |

| ubunubi | how can i easily see what driver ubuntu is loading for my sound card? | 21:03 |

| Dabbu | i have to restart "/etc/init.d/networking" everytime when i start ubuntu any help to avoid this | 21:03 |
| MrJeff | I have a problem with my secondary hard drive, everytime i restart it demounts the hard drive | 21:04 |
| carandraug | kalkan: What I did was to correct the UUID from sda2 and sda4, erase the entry from the old swap partition and in the sda4 line switch "ext3" to "swap" and "defaults" to "sw". I think it's correct that way | 21:04 |

| scythefwd_ | sevas, I have the cd from ubuntu. I can't install from it though, it doesn't seem to like my ide hd | 21:31 |
| marekt | will02, do you have one partition only? | 21:31 |
| Seveas | marekt, you're installing crap from a ppa. Please stick to official sources only unless you know what you're doing. | 21:31 |
| basicshwa | ok, now all i need to know is how do I add that program to my fluxbox menu, also, how do i get fluxbox to start as soon as i power up my computer | 21:32 |
| scythefwd_ | hendrixski, and how large would that be? and where would I get one :) | 21:32 |
| marekt | seveas i know, i just wanted to try new libraries | 21:32 |
| Seveas | marekt, well, don't, that causes these problems :) | 21:32 |
| divinebovine | btw, hello seveas | 21:32 |
| arquebus | princesa- I cant find anything useful on the net, but if its only for an icon, have you tried right clicking on the "applications" menu icon? you can access new icons that way | 21:32 |
| kalkan | can anybody help with fstab? | 21:33 |
| hendrixski | scythefwd_: I know ondisk.com used to do those, for like $10 or so... I got a free copy a few months ago and it was exactly what a friend needed who lives out in the boonies without fast internet | 21:33 |
| tsuna27 | i got an eeepc and was wondering wats the best distro | 21:33 |
| marekt | ok so should i remove theese lines from sources.list | 21:33 |
| divinebovine | kalkan just ask | 21:33 |
| marekt | then apt-upgrade and it will wor? | 21:33 |
| greywhind | does anyone know of a way to install the entire kernel source without access to the internet? | 21:33 |
| Seveas | marekt, yes, and then run apt-get clean :) | 21:33 |
| divinebovine | tsuna27 google the eeepc ubuntu project | 21:33 |
| will02 | marekt, yes, only one | 21:33 |
| arquebus | tsuna27- you should check at #eeepc | 21:33 |
| divinebovine | they did all the work for you | 21:33 |
| basicshwa | sabayon has a preinstall for the eee pod, if your looking for something easy | 21:33 |
| marekt | will02 can you paste the result of df | 21:33 |
| greywhind | or what this error could be solved by: Missing File: arch/x86/boot/bzImage | 21:33 |
| will02 | marekt, actually it does have two, but ones swao | 21:33 |

| d4r1os54_ | hi all | 21:34 |
| princesa | arquebus: you mean changing icon permission? that would take long... thats why i was hoping for that method, instead i would make the folder accessible "instead of picking icons one-by-one", oh well if thats the case i will do it next time cause tonight this is as much as i can take unless you can think of soemthing | 21:34 |

| rebel_kid | can a standard ubuntu desktop install be modified to be a basic web server (im just trying to set up a test server for cgi python scripts) | 21:43 |

| guntbert | will02: ok, pastebin it plesae | 21:47 |
| divinebovine | rebel_kid well you install apache most likely and then configure it properly. its the configuration that will get you. look for ubuntu specific apache config info online, its the same for all distros just the paths change so if you look for ubuntu specific info it will save you a few minutes. | 21:47 |
| carandraug | lohvik: no idea. I don't usually bother with that | 21:47 |
| divinebovine | rwaite sudo poweroff | 21:47 |
| rwaite | um. no? | 21:47 |
| danbhfive | divinebovine: I got one msg saying that xorg just autodetects at startup now. Thus, xorg.conf can be blank now, but you can add directives as needed. SO, it would make sense that reconfiguring doesn't work, since its an onboot detection for the most part now | 21:47 |
| kalkan | carandraug, ok thanks, so let me reboot now? | 21:47 |
| rwaite | theres a green guy. but he gives me no shutdown option. system also displays no shutdown command. | 21:48 |

| billybigrigger | i have a quick question here, im vnc'ing into my ubuntu box via tightvnc and using fluxbox as the wm, everytime i close the session it doesn't save my appearance, like i pick a background and set up some launchers on the desktop and when i close the session and start a new one everything is back to default | 22:23 |
| billybigrigger | is it fluxbox? or is there a better wm i can use for vnc sessions? | 22:23 |
| === trojatra is now known as trojatra^work | ||
| lohvik | iiiiiiiiii: in desktop and documents but in xorg drivers i cannot | 22:24 |
| WebLOCH | Bill_Michaelson, openbox | 22:24 |
| emorris | billybigrigger: if you want to control your actual desktop (rather than it creating a new one each time) you can use x0vncserver instead of vncserver | 22:24 |
| Bill_Michaelson | WebLOCH, excuse me? | 22:25 |
| iiiiiiiiii | lohvik xorg drivers meaning /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 22:25 |
| iiiiiiiiii | lohvik you want to edit this but your denied? | 22:25 |
| lohvik | iiiiiiiiii: yes, i want copy sis driver files there | 22:26 |
| billybigrigger | emorris, but the sessions are resumbable, i can leave transmission runing, close the session and come back and it will be done downloading, so why cant it save my appearance preferences | 22:26 |
| kalkan | carandraug, ok, i will try reboot. one more question, in /media why are still there sda7, sda8, sda9? | 22:26 |
| lohvik | iiiiiiiiii: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers | 22:26 |
| iiiiiiiiii | did you try the sudo switch... ie sudo cp /folder to /folder | 22:27 |
| emorris | billybigrigger: do you log in with the same user you log in locally with by any chance? | 22:27 |
| lohvik | iiiiiiiiii: i want overwrite sis_drv.so file | 22:27 |
| iiiiiiiiii | sudo should do it | 22:27 |
| iiiiiiiiii | or better yet type sudo nautilus | 22:28 |
| carandraug | kalkan: the folders are probably empty right? If so, you can delete them "sudo rmdir /media/sda7" and repeat for sda8 and sda9 | 22:28 |
| lohvik | iiiiiiiiii: i mean GUI way, no skills with sudo thing | 22:28 |

| kalkan | carandraug, also with sda4 (swap)? | 22:28 |
| billybigrigger | emorris, well i dont log into the machine locally, its sitting beside me with no mouse/keyboard, i just vnc in all the time | 22:28 |
| ThersiT | I've been installing everything using Synaptic, is that gonna bite me in the end? | 22:29 |
| iiiiiiiiii | lohvik open a terminal and type "sudo nautilus" it will open a root GUI | 22:29 |
| Pici | !gksudo | iiiiiiiiii lohvik | 22:29 |
| billybigrigger | emorris, i dont sit down at the machine and log in, all logins are remote, vnc, ftp, ssh blah blah | 22:29 |
| ubottu | iiiiiiiiii lohvik: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 22:29 |
| carandraug | kalkan: you can remove that one as well | 22:29 |
| emorris | billybigrigger: hmm, well i was thinking that however you log in, it will be accessing the same config files in your home folder | 22:29 |
| WebLOCH | Bill_Michaelson, sorry got the wrong guy | 22:29 |
| WebLOCH | billybigrigger, you tried openbox? | 22:29 |
| billybigrigger | WebLOCH, nope i will though | 22:30 |
| Bill_Michaelson | WebLOCH, OK | 22:30 |
| billybigrigger | where do i set the default wm for vnc sessions? | 22:30 |

| gaspard | unop: and with firefox something like that : Error: cannot open display: :0.0 | 22:36 |

| foxhop | My drives don't auto mount at startup. I'm forced to click on them to mount them | 22:36 |
| foxhop | ntfs | 22:36 |
| unop | Dedicated, i believe if you reconfigure x11-common .. you can set a nice value at which X will run | 22:37 |
| gaspard | unop: same thing | 22:37 |
| manolis | I have ordered a brand new PC with Nivdia 9800.Ubuntu Fully Support it? | 22:37 |
| favro | isn't there a renice command? | 22:37 |
| Expl0ited | unop why would nice values really matter? | 22:37 |
| gaspard | unop: maybe i should share xhost rights | 22:38 |
| Dedicated | unop: yeah but was looking for a more common method to do that (so i can also change other nice values static) | 22:38 |
| sagredo | Alright. Someone has to know how to help me reach my Apache2 serv from the outside Internet. Why can't I figure it out... Port 80 is forwarded... What configuration do I need to change? | 22:38 |
| kalkan | carandraug, it dosent work yet, when i chose opensuse from menu, it puts: bad file or directory type | 22:38 |
| Gendolookin | hey everyone | 22:38 |
| manolis | I have ordered a brand new PC with Nivdia 9800.Ubuntu Fully Support it? | 22:38 |
| lohvik | iiiiiiiiii: thanks it worked but i hope i do now right thing and i replace right file, sis_drv.so is that some old sis graphics file i do not know but i downloaded new drivers there http://ncc-1701a.homelinux.net/WikiBerd/?page=LinuxSis67x , hope that they work with esprimo v5535 | 22:39 |
| Dedicated | unop: but yeah was x11-common to set it for X | 22:39 |
| Gendolookin | real quick question what does this mean? When i do any "sudo" command i get this sudo: unable to resolve host (username) | 22:39 |
| Gendolookin | ?? | 22:39 |
| Expl0ited | manolis: you having ordered it already implies its too late if it isn't. | 22:39 |
| unop | Dedicated, well, everything else that X launches then has the same nice value - or can use the same nice value | 22:39 |
| unop | Expl0ited, because sometimes you want your X apps to have a lower nice value than system services | 22:40 |
| Gendolookin | i can't run update either | 22:40 |
| Gendolookin | and i think it has something to do with that message | 22:40 |
| manolis | ok i heard that it is not supported,do you know if 9800 will be supported in 8.10? | 22:40 |
| unop | gaspard, you shouldn't need to | 22:40 |
| KrimZon | Gendolookin: have you been trying to change hostname? | 22:40 |
| Expl0ited | unop: oh I see... | 22:40 |
| Gendolookin | i only have this one | 22:40 |
| Gendolookin | unless i log in as root | 22:41 |
| Gendolookin | oh you mean just change it alltogether? | 22:41 |
| Mr_Fixit | i have a problem with hearing flash sound ie: youtube, I fixed the problem before with alsa and some file changes but i re-installed and forgot what to do.... | 22:41 |
| manolis | ok i heard that it is not supported,do you know if 9800 will be supported in 8.10? | 22:41 |
| Dedicated | unop: i have a lot of not X related stuff running which it seems i cant permanently set a nice value :( | 22:41 |
| kalkan | carandraug, i cant start OpenSuse yet | 22:41 |
| unop | gaspard, you are logged on the machine how exactly? in fluxbox? | 22:41 |
| guntbert | gaspard: you could do it with ssh -X gaspard2@localhost IF you have ssh-server running | 22:42 |
| KrimZon | Gendolookin: i mean _were_ you trying to do that - that's the only thing I know that can cause that sort of error (but then I don't know much on the subject) | 22:42 |
| Gendolookin | no i haven't been | 22:42 |
| Gendolookin | its just when i do a SUDO | 22:42 |
| carandraug | kalkan: can you give me your menu.lst now that you added those lines? | 22:42 |
| Gendolookin | and the SUDO works | 22:42 |

| _TechNeck_ | ok.... here's what I want to do.... multiple forwarding databases, per nic | 22:43 |
| Gendolookin | oh ok, sorry, i didn't mean to be annoying | 22:43 |
| KrimZon | that is weird | 22:43 |
| duiu | Gendolookin: Maybe something's screwy in your sudo file | 22:43 |
| duiu | *sudoers file | 22:43 |
| Gendolookin | must be | 22:43 |
| manolis | Do you know if Nividia 9800 will be supported in Ubuntu 8.10? | 22:43 |
| Gendolookin | i haven't changed anything in it.......but even though it shows me that message, the sudo still works | 22:43 |
| _TechNeck_ | aparently, the system uses a single forwarding database, which is why traffic send to eth0 is being responded to out of eth1 | 22:44 |
| unop | Dedicated, do you want to set a higher value for these apps or a lower one - note higher as in lower priority ? | 22:44 |
| gaspard | i am locally connected to the same machine, just different sessions under the same computer, one session under gnome (not running) and one under fluxbox (current one), I'd like to launch apps from the other session using the session's parameters (log into my pidgin accounts stored under my gnome session) | 22:44 |
| kalkan | carandraug, of course http://paste.ubuntu.com/41034/plain/ | 22:44 |

| chetanska | hello? | 22:46 |
| bobbob1016 | manolis, First off, (Please answer me!) isn't usually a way to get a response, I am responding out of boredom. Secondly, there is no way to know. Nvidia has to release drivers, it isn't that Ubuntu doesn't want to support the card. | 22:46 |
| Mr_Fixit | alistair: try another nvidia driver from the repository | 22:46 |
| genius | Hello! Do you know any package that can make MD5 snapshots of filesystem to check, what files has been changed between boots or smth else | 22:46 |
| chetanska | can someone help me....I just installed a linux os for the first time.....total noob | 22:46 |
| basicshwa | I installed ubuntu server edition. then I installed fluxbox via apt-get to my fluxbox menu. then I did sudo apt-get install menu and update-menus. now all i need to know is how do I add that program to my fluxbox menu, also, how do i get fluxbox to start as soon as i power up my computer. | 22:46 |
| Gendolookin | well my hostname in the /etc/hostname file | 22:46 |
| Gendolookin | is correct | 22:47 |

| duiu | genius: Your best bet is md5deep, but that'll take forever. It's kind of impractical. | 22:47 |
| alistair | Thank you that probably answers my question re resolution. | 22:47 |
| billybigrigger | im having problems with vnc resolution, right now its at 800x600 and i would like it to be 1280x1024, where do i set this? | 22:47 |
| Gendolookin | darnit, i'm sorry about that guys, i'm so used to IM chat...i like to use the enter as punctuation | 22:47 |

| xintron | I've mounted my iPod using "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/ipod". Now I can't write to my iPod and I can't change permission either "sudo chown <user> /media/ipod". How should I do to get write access to my iPod? | 22:47 |
| duiu | Billbigrigger: Either in the display properties or xorg.conf | 22:48 |
| sagredo | Alright. Someone has to know how to help me reach my Apache2 serv from the outside Internet. Why can't I figure it out... Port 80 is forwarded... What configuration do I need to change? | 22:48 |
| Mr_Fixit | alistair: also check to see if the current driver is supporting your card via system>admin>hardware drivers | 22:48 |
| Gendolookin | ok | 22:48 |
| duiu | xintron: What kind of iPod? | 22:48 |
| bobbob1016 | billybigrigger, The VNC resolution is based on the resolution of the remote machine. If you set the resolution higher there, it should be higher in VNC | 22:48 |
| xintron | duiu: Classic (6th gen) | 22:48 |
| Gendolookin | taylor-desktop.workgroup | 22:48 |
| xintron | duiu: but that shouldn't matter. | 22:48 |
| unop | genius, there's debsums which could help | 22:48 |
| billybigrigger | bobbob1016, ok well its headless, what config file do i set resolution? | 22:48 |
| Gendolookin | thats what it says in the "hosts" file | 22:48 |
| alistair | Mr_Fixit, yes did that and it seems to be - however unsure if its correct will try the options as described on previous url first. | 22:49 |
| duiu | xintron: Install GTK-pod | 22:49 |
| billybigrigger | bobbob1016, xorg? | 22:49 |
| xintron | duiu: I have that installed | 22:49 |
| Gendolookin | it just started in the last couple days....could it have anything to do with synergy? | 22:49 |
| bobbob1016 | billybigrigger, Oh, that could be the issue. Yeah, I'd say take everything else out of xorg.conf, but make sure to back it up before you do. | 22:49 |
| duiu | hrmm | 22:49 |
| unop | Gendolookin, does this give you anything? grep -i $HOSTNAME /etc/hosts | 22:49 |
| carandraug | kalkan: do you get something when you enter "less /media/sda2/boot/grub/menu.lst" ? Can you get that as well? | 22:49 |
| billybigrigger | Mr_Fixit, you from calgary? | 22:49 |
| duiu | xintron: You could trk Amarok, but other than that I'm out of help. I could help you more if it was a ipod touch. | 22:49 |
| unop | gaspard, is the DISPLAY variable set in your session? echo $DISPLAY | 22:49 |
| Mr_Fixit | yes.. | 22:50 |
| Mr_Fixit | why you ask?? how you know???? | 22:50 |
| xintron | duiu: I use rhythmbox and manually mounting it (leavning no rights to my own user and I can't change that :( ) | 22:50 |
| Gendolookin | it says 127.0.1.1 taylor-desktop.workgroup | 22:50 |
| billybigrigger | Mr_Fixit, whois | 22:50 |
| billybigrigger | Mr_Fixit, thought you were my cousin, he used to rock the name Mr_Fixit a few years ago | 22:51 |
| unop | Gendolookin, and what does this give you? hostname | 22:51 |
| Gendolookin | the output from the grep gave me 127.0.1.1 taylor-desktop.workgroup | 22:51 |
| duiu | xintron: add yourself to the mount group | 22:51 |
| unop | Gendolookin, and what does this command give you? hostname | 22:51 |
| billybigrigger | Mr_Fixit, your name isn't warren is it? | 22:51 |
| duiu | xintron: Then you could mount it without sudo. | 22:52 |
| Gendolookin | taylor-desktop | 22:52 |
| unop | duiu, mount group ? | 22:52 |
| duiu | there's some group that lets you use mount and not be root | 22:52 |
| sagredo | how can I open up my apache2 serv to the internet | 22:52 |
| unop | Gendolookin, so there you go .. you don't have an entry for taylor-desktop in /etc/hosts | 22:52 |

| jrib | sagredo: install the apache2 package and make sure your firewall or router does not interfere | 22:53 |
| unop | Gendolookin, taylor-desktoop.workgroup is not taylor-desktop | 22:54 |

| Gendolookin | i see, well......should i delete the .workgroup or add it to the other? | 22:54 |
| kalkan | carandraug, there is only menu.lst.old | 22:54 |
| Gendolookin | OH | 22:54 |
| Gendolookin | hahahah i can't get sudo rights to edit the "hosts" file | 22:55 |
| carandraug | kalkan: pastebin the menu.lst.old then | 22:55 |
| jrib | Gendolookin: reboot into recovery mode | 22:55 |
| Gendolookin | nope wait, it worked | 22:55 |
| Gendolookin | would setting up samba have changed that? | 22:55 |
| Gendolookin | because i added my windows vista machine to my linux network | 22:56 |

| nDuff | What needs to be done to get Flash to work in Firefox on Hardy amd64 other than installing flashplugin-nonfree? | 23:11 |
| histo | nDuff: what do you mean other than? thats it. | 23:11 |
| histo | !flash > nDuff | 23:11 |
| ubottu | nDuff, please see my private message | 23:11 |
| greenfishx3 | quick quiz: where do i locate my settings for locale, timezone, what keyboard layout i use etc in a config file? | 23:11 |
| danbhfive | histo: he said that he was running amd64 | 23:12 |
| skeeel | hello | 23:12 |
| histo | danbhfive: so thats the proceedure | 23:12 |
| histo | danbhfive: i'm runnign 64bit as well. | 23:12 |
| danbhfive | I don't think it is, you need some sort of rapper, I thought | 23:13 |
| Digit | hey all | 23:13 |
| histo | danbhfive: not anymore | 23:13 |
| histo | danbhfive: I'm running 64bit myself. | 23:13 |
| nDuff | histo, hrm... if I read that correctly, I need to install and use a 32-bit browser. Eww -- IIRC, Gentoo has had a shim for allowing 64-bit browsers to use 32-bit plugins for quite some time now. | 23:13 |
| molgrum | hi, i'm having trouble with gnome always making my fullscreen apps go windowed whenever another app is flashing.. do you know what i mean? | 23:14 |
| arlinju_ | can i make 2 different application to work with 2 different vlans? | 23:14 |
| skeeel | i have a problem , with any prog that i can use on full screen (mplayer, 3d games) when i'm on fullscreen and i want to switch on windowed mode it scramble my screen , i need to quit the prog to have my screen well | 23:14 |
| histo | nDuff: firefox works fine here. | 23:14 |
| skeeel | any idea ? | 23:14 |
| histo | nDuff: if you go to a site like youtube it will prompt you for a flash plugin you can just use the gui to instlal it. | 23:14 |
| danbhfive | !flash64 | nDuff histo I don't know, but here is the factoid | 23:14 |
| ubottu | nDuff histo I don't know, but here is the factoid: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 23:14 |

| molgrum | skeeel: what gfx drivers? | 23:15 |
| Digit | I installed a fresh Hardy and it hangs after reboot "Loading, please wait..." common problem on forums, but no real solution | 23:15 |
| Digit | works live though | 23:15 |
| kalkan | carandraug, it still doesnt work | 23:15 |

| skeeel | ati ones molgrum , i just updated it and same with new drivers | 23:15 |
| carandraug | kalkan: what's the error? | 23:16 |
| nDuff | hrm; I already have npwrapper.libflashplayer.so already installed (incl. in about:plugins), it just doesn't seem to be working correctly. | 23:16 |
| molgrum | skeeel: ok my suggestions were to try with the repo driver and the envy driver, neither works? | 23:16 |
| histo | nDuff: danbhfive And i'm running a 64bit version of firefox | 23:16 |
| molgrum | ati on linux is a pain | 23:16 |

| danbhfive | markus_: do you have windows? | 23:27 |
| markus_ | yes | 23:27 |
| danbhfive | markus_: then, why dont you follow the instructions? | 23:28 |
| markus_ | windows is installed on this partition | 23:28 |
| danbhfive | markus_: from Choice 1 | 23:28 |
| markus_ | and the next problem is ... | 23:28 |
| markus_ | i can't turn it on at the moment ... | 23:28 |
| danbhfive | markus_: you can't boot windows? | 23:29 |
| markus_ | sp3 made a mistake and copied a file in a system directory | 23:29 |
| markus_ | and now i wanted to use linux | 23:29 |
| markus_ | to alter the file-name | 23:29 |
| markus_ | it worked the last time too | 23:29 |
| danbhfive | well, it looks like you don't have many options, since it was probably uncleanly mounted because of the same problem that prevents windows from booting | 23:31 |
| lauchax | hola | 23:32 |
| lauchax | hohohoohohlaa | 23:32 |
| danbhfive | markus_: I suggest you run chkdsk after you do whatever choice you make | 23:32 |
| markus_ | no ... the problem is a wrong copied file :) ... but danbhfive, ... i'll be back in minute ... i will try something new ... i found something on a website that could work | 23:32 |
| markus_ | http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/fastFaqLiteDocument?lc=de&cc=de&docname=c01458965&dlc=&printable=yes&encodeUrl=true& | 23:32 |
