| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: but look another problme is dual boot. | 00:00 |
|---|
| unop | tvanover, don't parse ls like that.. the output of ls wasn't meant to be parsed. find . -user tvanover -exec chown anotheruser {} \; | 00:00 |

|---|
| unop | timo, wrong use of sudo | 00:01 |
|---|
| unop | timo, no. shopt -s extglob; sudo rm -r !(home) | 00:01 |
|---|
| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: I don't care about the OS but do I gonna be able to get into the ubuntu again and save it ? | 00:01 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | gabbar We use a livecd that does not install so people can test thier hardware on this is | 00:01 |
|---|
| spunk | g'nite all! | 00:01 |
|---|
| Syslq | Heh, dual boot in age of virtual machines :). Just makes no sense | 00:01 |
|---|
| timo | Files are still there | 00:01 |
|---|
| PHAZE | i was just kinda of confused with the ubuntu file structure like in windows all your new install go in program files where do your new installs go in ubuntu ? | 00:01 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | Iris save /home and you are well on your way to recovery | 00:02 |
|---|
| tvanover | unop: thanks | 00:02 |
|---|
| Alpha232 | ls | 00:02 |
|---|
| onx | gabbar, just burn it to cd and try it out. it will boot without making any changes to your system yet | 00:02 |
|---|
| unop | timo, did the command give you any errors? | 00:02 |
|---|
| tulimaq | Syslq: its still needed if u want to play games under windblows and have compiz working under linux... | 00:02 |
|---|
| timo | im root now http://pastebin.com/m2857de8a | 00:03 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | PHAZE the apt-get debs are in /var/cache/apt/archives but the installed files are all over | 00:03 |
|---|
| timo | unop: no errors just no result | 00:03 |
|---|
| airtonix | PHAZE, having all your logs in one section of the harddrives lends it self to better hardrive peformance...wouldnt you agree? | 00:03 |
|---|
| PHAZE | oh really there isn't just one directory | 00:03 |
|---|
| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: so let see if I undertood pop the live cd and after when it opens my files will be there... | 00:03 |
|---|
| gabbar | onx so u mean i can go to website and download ubuntu and burn it then just insert the cd and ubuntu will start?> | 00:03 |
|---|
| timo | its ok i do it by hand | 00:03 |
|---|
| gabbar | Jack_Sparrow oh i didnt know it ! | 00:04 |
|---|
| PHAZE | true antonix | 00:04 |
|---|
| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: sorry to ask too many silly question as you see I'm not good on that. | 00:04 |
|---|
| onx | gabbar, yes | 00:04 |
|---|
| unop | timo, try this command first. set +H | 00:04 |
|---|
| timo | sudo nautilus and delete the folders | 00:04 |
|---|
| unop | timo, then that one again | 00:04 |
|---|
| timo | wile im root | 00:04 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | Iris it may take more work but that is where you start | 00:04 |
|---|
| unop | timo, don't use sudo with graphical applications.. use gksudo for that | 00:04 |
|---|
| unop | timo, i.e. gksudo nautilus | 00:04 |
|---|
| timo | ok | 00:04 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | timo gksudo nautilus.. never sudo nautilus | 00:04 |
|---|
| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: the main problem is how can I do the job... :( | 00:04 |
|---|
| gabbar | onx where would i get the drivers for ethernet card grpahic drivers sound card drivers etc., | 00:04 |
|---|
| PHAZE | i love ubuntu but the file structure is confusing to me | 00:05 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | Iris one step at a time | 00:05 |
|---|
| Syslq | tulimaq I like windows just fine I just dislike their insane licensing policys etc... But ubuntu seems to be very fine alternative :) | 00:05 |
|---|
| Syslq | PHAZE file structure is as in every other linux I think | 00:05 |
|---|
| PHAZE | but windows is so dummy down to anyone can use it | 00:05 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | gabbar if supported you wont need to get them yourself | 00:05 |
|---|
| Syslq | Filesystem hirarchy standard I mean | 00:05 |
|---|
| Syslq | FHS | 00:05 |
|---|
| timo | thank you done! | 00:06 |
|---|
| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: right let see what I can do... | 00:06 |
|---|
| Dormie | how do I connect to a wifi? my card is detecting my router, i'm in KDE | 00:06 |
|---|
| Iris | Jack_Sparrow: but thanks anyway... | 00:06 |
|---|
| airtonix | PHAZE, no reason windows is so simplified is to reduce the amount of help desk requirements and make it easier to employ 'anyone' in the help desk role | 00:06 |
|---|
| Syslq | PHAZE you can read a nifty pdf on it, just google, and I think | 00:06 |
|---|
| gabbar | Jack_Sparrow ok. | 00:06 |
|---|
| PHAZE | on what | 00:06 |

| keen101 | Dormie, I havent tried kubuntu in awihle, so i woulden't know. | 00:08 |

|---|
| PHAZE | true | 00:08 |
|---|
| keen101 | Is the network manager in kde like in the gnome version? | 00:08 |
|---|
| Dormie | can I do so in terminal, keen101? | 00:08 |
|---|
| Dormie | no | 00:08 |
|---|
| gabbar | Jack_Sparrow Do i need to learn some commands to operate ubuntu? | 00:08 |
|---|
| Syslq | Airtonix, PHAZE sorry but simplified is positive in my book. But hey, about anyone doing it, well that's simply bullshit. Managing any enviroment requires certain amount of knowledge and I mean general computing knowledge | 00:09 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | gabbar no | 00:09 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | most people that come here have at least some idea of what they're doing | 00:09 |
|---|
| PHAZE | i been trying to learn linux ubuntu for a while on and off through VMware workstation 6 its a really easy way to test it out i have also install it on my system when i had my other hard drive working lol | 00:09 |

| DARKGuy | x) | 00:11 |
|---|
| gabbar | Syslq hey hi and is linux = ubuntu ? | 00:11 |
|---|
| Syslq | BBLake Ubuntu uses gnome, Kubuntu uses KDE desktop enviroments. | 00:11 |
|---|
| Syslq | gabbar linux is kernel not os | 00:11 |
|---|
| gabbar | OK | 00:11 |
|---|
| BBLake | and edubuntu? same thing kde? | 00:11 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | I have ubuntu 7.10 | 00:11 |
|---|
| PHAZE | ok whats the difference in KDE and gnome | 00:11 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | Should I upgrade? | 00:11 |
|---|
| BBLake | So the ONLY difference is desktop environment? | 00:11 |
|---|
| PHAZE | can't you install KDE on ubuntu? | 00:12 |
|---|
| mneptok | BBLake: Edubuntu uses GNOME but bundles a lot of the KDE educational software | 00:12 |
|---|
| Tulimaq | PHAZE: yes u can | 00:12 |
|---|
| mneptok | PHAZE: yes, but then why not just install Kubuntu? | 00:12 |
|---|
| PHAZE | true | 00:12 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | Or rather *should* i upgrade? | 00:12 |
|---|
| gabbar | So what should i install? ubuntu or kubuntu or edbuntu??? iam totally new to his | 00:12 |
|---|
| PHAZE | could you switch back and forth? | 00:12 |
|---|
| mneptok | PHAZE: yes | 00:12 |
|---|
| Syslq | PHAZE KDE is desktop enviroment that has is based on qt or omething and it's applications need it's librarys, GNOME is based on GTK, if you want to install GNOME app on kde you allso need to install a shitload of librarys that that app depends on | 00:13 |
|---|
| PHAZE | kool how so? | 00:13 |
|---|
| BBLake | i think i have my BUNTU's mixed up | 00:13 |
|---|
| PHAZE | oh so its not easy i can see | 00:13 |
|---|
| mneptok | Syslq: "a lot" is preferabel int his channel | 00:13 |
|---|
| mneptok | *preferable | 00:13 |
|---|
| keen101 | Phantom, you should at least upgrade to 8.04 since it is a LTS release. It will be supported until the next one. | 00:13 |
|---|
| PHAZE | unless you know linux | 00:13 |
|---|
| BBLake | i downloaded a kde theme i think, and it messed with my gnome enviroment, taking forever to load | 00:13 |
|---|
| Scunizi | gabbar: install ubuntu and after that you can install kubuntu and xubuntu and then on the username screen when booting choose which one you want to use that day. | 00:13 |
|---|
| Dormie | keen101, if I connect to my router in gnome will it carry over to kde? | 00:13 |
|---|
| Syslq | PHAZE you can consider them as framework if you like | 00:13 |
|---|
| PHAZE | what did they change in 8.04 ? | 00:14 |
|---|
| Syslq | But that could be argued I guess | 00:14 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | 8.04 LTS the one I want? | 00:14 |
|---|
| PHAZE | yea | 00:14 |
|---|
| keen101 | Dormie, possibly. but, i really don't know. | 00:14 |
|---|
| damijit | I want to replace 2 files, but I am getting "permission denied". How do I override this? | 00:14 |
|---|
| gabbar | thanks bye | 00:14 |
|---|
| PHAZE | how do you do that syslq? | 00:14 |
|---|
| Syslq | PHAZE what? | 00:14 |
|---|
| Scunizi | damien_: use "sudo" when issuing the command | 00:14 |
|---|
| Syslq | I'm watching tv beside chatting :) | 00:15 |
|---|
| BBLake | scunizi, from what your saying, maybe the theme isn't my problem. Whatever happened destroyed my ability to boot up..takes forever | 00:15 |
|---|
| PHAZE | sys: how do you consider them as a framework | 00:15 |
|---|
| damijit | I am in the GUI, how do I sudo? Or do I need to use the command line? | 00:15 |
|---|
| keen101 | dormie, put this in terminal: network-admin | 00:15 |
|---|
| Scunizi | BBLake: once loaded change the theme back to the original and see what happens. | 00:15 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | Is it true what I hear, that linux is better for editing video files than windows? | 00:16 |
|---|
| BBLake | change out of the themes, then reboot? good idea...going to try that | 00:16 |
|---|
| BBLake | do i need to delete, or just not select as an option? | 00:16 |
|---|
| Tulimaq | damijit: what program u want to run ? | 00:16 |
|---|
| Scunizi | damijit: what files are you trying to replace and where are they located? | 00:16 |
|---|
| unr3a1_ | hey all | 00:16 |
|---|
| Syslq | PHAZE well it's deskop enviroment and as any desktop enviroment has a lot of librarys available to you wich you can use to build your own apps. And a whole lot of librarys designed to make your coding productive in some direction would be definition of framework, but as said that's arguable, framework is JAVA or .net and they both implement virtual machine but that's out of the topic | 00:17 |
|---|
| unr3a1_ | I know this is a question for firefox, but no one in there seems to know the answer to my question, so I figure I would try here | 00:17 |
|---|
| Scunizi | BBLake: just make the change and apply.. that should do it.. or CTRL+ALT+Backspace which restarts the gui but doesn't really reboot the machine. | 00:17 |
|---|
| BBLake | yep,....be back in 10 (or 2 minutes if this works) :) Crossing fingers. | 00:17 |
|---|
| unr3a1_ | I am running firefox 3. I have the smart bookmarks plugin installed to allow bookmarks in my bookmarks toolbar to only display the webpage icons | 00:17 |
|---|
| Tulimaq | Scunizi: restarts X server u mean | 00:17 |
|---|
| unr3a1_ | this toolbar is full | 00:18 |
|---|
| damijit | Tulimaq and Scunizi: I downloaded the game "Enemy Territory" and installed into /usr/local/games. I downloaded the patch, and apparently what I'm supposed to do is replace the .x86 files with the patched ones. It is when doing this that I am getting permission denied. | 00:18 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Tulimaq: right.. but for a newbee it looks like a gui reboot | 00:18 |
|---|
| PHAZE | well is this task a big one to do if i wanted to mess with it? | 00:18 |
|---|
| Syslq | Btw, I was asking for real what would be the best way to install codecs on ubuntu, (something like codecs pack on windows), is there entire package that covers it all or something? | 00:18 |
|---|
| unr3a1_ | is there a way for me to expand that toolbar to a second bar? | 00:18 |
|---|
| Scunizi | damijit: and you're trying to use the file manager to drag and drop? | 00:18 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | Is 8.04 LTS the version I will want to upgrade to? | 00:18 |
|---|
| damijit | yes | 00:18 |
|---|
| oklinux | hey Jack_Sparrow I got ubuntu install | 00:19 |

| keen101 | damijit, you may need to use the chown command. | 00:19 |
|---|
| === _LordC is now known as LordC |
| * nullcool_ say hello! :S ......WTF i had never enter this chanel...:P | 00:19 |
| Scunizi | damijit: then you need to start the file manager as "root".. sudo nautilus .. copy your files then close the file manager because it too dangerous to leave open.. | 00:19 |
|---|
| bobertdos | PHAZE: I don't mean to patronize you, but you are aware that the bookmarks expand into a dropdown meu at the end, right? You could also reorganize the bar to bring the ones you use most often back to the front....... | 00:20 |
|---|
| nateeeee | *sigh* ok, i've got no internet in a FRESH install of ubuntu. i'm not at all familiar with linux. i've suplied dns servers, tried static and automatic ip's... i don't understand why i would have no net :( pls help | 00:20 |

|---|
| Goosemoose | so i installed ubuntu over the network, add to late_command to join an AD domain, the computer shows up in AD and domainjoin-cli query shows it's on the domain. But I can't login as a domain user. Any suggestions? | 00:21 |

|---|
| nateeeee | i don't understand any of that stuff. though iu did try, "/sbin/ifconfig -a" which made very little sense to me as it was merly a readout of what was connected where and the current status'. | 00:22 |
|---|
| joshuajtl | keen101: talking about windows, not Windows | 00:22 |
|---|
| Jack_Sparrow | joshuajtl I agree with keen101 | 00:22 |

|---|
| Tulimaq | ^Phantom^: yes | 00:25 |
|---|
| Scunizi | OsamaK: other than Jack_Sparrow 's suggestion you could also right mouse click on the top bar and choose "add to panel" then choose "System Monitor".. that will give you access to processes and let you kill them. | 00:25 |

| keenscreen | upon starting up ubuntu i saw: "there is an error starting the gnome settings daemon" error message: "Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken." .... how to fix? | 00:29 |
|---|
| bobertdos | KiLl3rCaM: Actually, I think that might be normal because I get that too and all my sound works. What are your settings in System->Preferences->Sound? | 00:29 |
|---|
| drazak | Persica: is your syntax right? | 00:30 |
|---|
| KiLl3rCaM | its all oss | 00:30 |
|---|
| bobertdos | KiLl3rCaM: So do Pulse and Alsa not work for you at all? | 00:31 |
|---|
| Persica | It's failing on creating the directory for the mount within the autofs. | 00:31 |
|---|
| KiLl3rCaM | no | 00:31 |
|---|
| Persica | drazak: "mount(nfs): mkdir_path /net/sww failed: No such file or directory" | 00:31 |
|---|
| BBLake | What is the best way to diagnosis problems with boot-up. Something changed with my boot-ups now taking forever, not the KDE them as we had thought | 00:31 |
|---|
| drazak | Persica: it looks like your local mount path is wrong | 00:31 |
|---|
| Persica | drazak: seems odd. It can create the original /net, but then it won't create the subdirectories to mount on. | 00:31 |

| darren__ | Tulimaq, like i say two laptops both with built in wifi the usb wifi works on one laptop but not mine also works on desktop but not my laptop, tryed a diffrent driver from aircrack can connet to internet but it does not show signal strength, is it the hardware in my laptop that is bad | 00:31 |

| darren__ | Tulimaq, dont think i need to past it because it just says Interface doesn't support scanning. no scan results | 00:37 |
|---|
| tom_ | artti: if compiz is running you need 4 horizontal destops and the cube plugin running and that should give you a cube | 00:37 |

| Jack_Sparrow | darren__ That is a limitation of marginally supported hardware | 00:41 |

| leachim6 | I know I can use idesk for icons and still use gnome-panel | 00:56 |
|---|
| Scunizi | dtolj: beyond my abilities.. sorry.. the only thing I can relate it to is apache2 which is done by "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop | 00:56 |

|---|
| luis__ | what else do i need to give you?? erUSUL? | 00:58 |
|---|
| leachim6 | also...I hate gconf , it's way too much like the windows registry | 00:58 |
|---|
| leachim6 | what happened to "everything is a file" | 00:58 |
|---|
| darren__ | Tulimaq, i have the linux driver on a cd that comes with the wifi i but i have to compile it and that i have no idear what so ever | 00:58 |
|---|
| myles7897 | sorry xchat crashed did you get that last message? | 00:58 |

|---|
| viaken | Anyone have any ideas?= | 00:59 |
|---|

|---|
| luis__ | is for two but still if i use only laptop won't reconize it or whatever the word might be | 00:59 |
|---|
| leachim6 | sielnt_, I did a few gentoo installs, it's not worth it... | 00:59 |
|---|
| leachim6 | binary packages all the way | 00:59 |
|---|
| viaken | sielnt_: I like Arch. It adheres pretty well to K.I.S.S. | 01:00 |
|---|
| viaken | And is good to learn with. | 01:00 |
|---|
| Tulimaq | darren__: u can check maybe they have some update for it | 01:00 |
|---|
| sielnt_ | leachim6: I'll always have debian to fall back on. I try out ubuntu every now and then, but it feels to bloated for my taste | 01:00 |
|---|
| leachim6 | so nobody knows how to create icons with no name ? | 01:00 |
|---|
| leachim6 | sielnt_, tried ubuntu server ? | 01:00 |
|---|
| mneptok | distro preferences are best taken to #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:00 |

| skylar | how can I set-up a wireless router behind a 4-port? any clues | 01:01 |
|---|
| viaken | Also, I've done a bunch of Gentoo installs. I tend to have a more stable system from it, but it's definitely slow and laborous. | 01:01 |
|---|
| skylar | the 4-port was working good.. still is | 01:01 |
|---|
| Tulimaq | darren__: what driver u have on cd, for windows ? | 01:01 |
|---|
| sielnt_ | leachim6: I've always used etch for my server needs... I'll give the server distro a go for desktop | 01:01 |
|---|
| skylar | I plug the wireless router behind it | 01:01 |
|---|
| leachim6 | 4-port what ? | 01:01 |
|---|
| viaken | Anyone have any ideas what to do with this error? http://viaken.udderweb.com/error.jpg | 01:01 |

|---|
| leachim6 | tried it... | 01:06 |
|---|
| leachim6 | no dice | 01:07 |
|---|
| viaken | So, no one's got any ideas on that error? | 01:07 |

| pokpok | daklan: i have a key with a $ sign on... i would like it to work.. but I'm lost | 02:32 |

| icedtea | pokpok: does the $ key work in any apps? | 02:33 |
|---|
| daklan | phpcurious: try installing ndisgtk. you might find it easier to work in gui | 02:33 |
|---|
| pokpok | icedtea: nowhere... at all | 02:34 |
|---|
| icedtea | pokpok: go to the system menu->Preferences->keyboard | 02:34 |
|---|
| daklan | pokpok: does the $ key work in other programs? and did you set the correct keymap in your system settings? | 02:34 |
|---|
| phpcurious | daklan: cool downloading from apt-get now | 02:34 |
|---|
| icedtea | pokpok: you'll have to choose the right keyboard for you from there | 02:35 |

| haydn1 | Could someone help me understand if it is possible to repartition my HDD to include /var /usr /boot etc. after I have installed using the guided method. | 02:39 |

| Azazel-A2 | better than web min, run ssh -X and install gnome-desktop packages. realyl sweet | 02:44 |

| rootlinuxusr | whenever I try that it freezes the term. | 02:45 |

| daklan | Azazel-A2: bandwidth-intensive. not much fun | 02:45 |

| pokpok | daklan: if you try to bind a key with gnome-keybinding-properties it detect alle keys.. even the special "web" and "mail" hot keys works... But no response on the $ sign key... is there something missing in the kernel? | 02:45 |

| jschiff | phpcurious: if it says something like, Driver loaded, hardware detected then modprobe it | 03:11 |
|---|
| tom_ | danbh_intrepid: ahh makes sense will try that thx | 03:11 |
|---|
| jschiff | phpcurious: if it doesn't then you have the wrong driver | 03:11 |

|---|
| jschiff | Jack_Sparrow: do you represent a part of ubuntu development? | 03:12 |

| Azazel-A2 | jacobian. ayou can leave it running and run static/dynamic, but you can shut it down in firestarter | 03:12 |

|---|
| phpcurious | jschiff: but not hardware detected. | 03:12 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Jacobian: no need to uninstall the dhcp package, just configure your network interface to have a static ip (e.g., through the gui). leave the router as is. | 03:12 |
|---|
| Jacobian | Thanks Azazel. I've already changed my /etc/network/interfaces file according to the universe instructions on the web... but I'm not able to communicate with my router, even so. | 03:12 |
|---|
| phpcurious | jschiff: what to do next? | 03:13 |
|---|
| tom_ | Xcerca: assuming your not using lvm then its trickey but you can do it from a liveCD, just backup anything important | 03:13 |
|---|
| jschiff | phpcurious: you modprobed successfully? | 03:13 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Jacobian: did you set your comp to be in the same subnet as the router's dhcp subnet? | 03:13 |
|---|
| Jacobian | Yes, thank you | 03:13 |
|---|
| phpcurious | jschiff: it just asked for sudo password then nothing. | 03:13 |
|---|
| Xcerca | tom_ whats lvm ? | 03:14 |

| Jacobian | My router is 192.168.0.1, and my computer is 192.168.0.2, both with 255.255.255.0 masks. | 03:14 |

| PDF_q | I need to convert realplayer files into flv files through command line, does anyone know a good tool? | 03:14 |
|---|
| jschiff | Jacobian: sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.x gateway 255.255.255.0 | 03:14 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | try http://192.168.0.1 in firefox | 03:14 |
|---|
| jschiff | Jacobian: sudo dhclient eth0 | 03:14 |
|---|
| iFvwm | flv!! | 03:14 |
|---|
| phpcurious | jschiff: nothing | 03:14 |
|---|
| Jacobian | So I'll be okay if my router is using DHCP? I can set my static IP address within Ubuntu, and as long as that IP address is available, then I can request it from the router? | 03:15 |
|---|
| jschiff | phpcurious: then you need to find a different driver | 03:15 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Jacobian: that looks about right. does "route -n" show the router as the default gateway? | 03:15 |
|---|
| phpcurious | jschiff: lo Interface doesn't support scanning, eth0 interface doesn't support scanning | 03:15 |

| darren_ | hi could some one please explain why my usb wirless dows not show signal strength in network manager but i can still connect | 03:15 |
|---|
| jschiff | phpcurious: yeah you have the wrong driver | 03:15 |
|---|
| tom_ | Xcerca: a volume manager that makes resizing and moving partions about easy, but has to be installed at install time, so unless you choose it when you installed ubuntu its not much use | 03:15 |

| Nutzebahn | Flannel: http://pastebin.com/d3557ca1e | 03:15 |
|---|
| PDF_q | ok how about convert realplayer files to avi? | 03:15 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Jacobian: set your static ip to be outside the dhcp range (i.e., if the router is handing out ip addresses of 192.168.0.2-100, give yourself 192.168.0.150, then you should be ok. | 03:16 |
|---|
| iFvwm | PDF_q: mencoder | 03:16 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | routere should be gateway. gateway should be 192.168.0.1 your gateway in interfaces should be gateway 192.168.0.1 to get name lookup from router | 03:16 |
|---|
| ^Phantom^ | yep it got stuck | 03:16 |

| darren_ | hi does any one know why my signal strength does not show in network manager | 03:28 |
|---|
| bbeattie | Jacobian: I don't have X running, so using the gui config tool is not possible, do you know what repos dkms can be found in for feisty? packages.ubuntu doesn't reference it. | 03:28 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | using mad wifi or ndiswrap? | 03:29 |
|---|
| darren_ | also one last thing in network-manager can i get it to read signel strength in a diffrent form | 03:29 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | bbeattie: in hardy, it's in universe. in feisty (which i'm also running), it doesn't seem to be available in any of the official ubuntu repos. | 03:30 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | bbeattie: apt-cache search dkms | 03:30 |
|---|
| Scunizi | bbeattie: Gutsy had it.. http://linux.dell.com/dkms | 03:30 |
|---|
| darren_ | I have a usb wireless wifi with alfa network rtl8187 driver and it does not show signal strength in network manager | 03:30 |
|---|
| bbeattie | Yup, seems like it's in anything beyond 7.04 but I need it for feisty | 03:30 |
|---|
| jschiff | bbeattie: download the source | 03:30 |
|---|
| Scunizi | bbeattie: do you want the source to build it? | 03:31 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Scunizi: i'm using feisty, not hardy. so no fancy xrandr hardy stuff for me... | 03:31 |

| BBLake | I'm trying to load a theme for login window, that i know is installed on my computer for ubuntustudio..but i can't find it..how do i re-add a login theme? | 03:31 |
|---|
| Jacobian | Hey bbeattie, you can get the *.deb file from the Ubuntu repository website using "links" or "curl" from the command line. | 03:31 |
|---|
| Jacobian | Do you need the URL for the *.deb file? | 03:32 |
|---|
| jschiff | BBLake: System -> Administration -> Login Window | 03:32 |
|---|
| BBLake | it's not there as an option unfortunately, but i treid to reinstall and it says it's already installed. Not sure where it's stored | 03:32 |

| Scunizi | bbeattie: wget http://linux.dell.com/git/dkms.git | 03:32 |

| SebNaitsabes | this is ubuntu suppourt not gos suppourt however | 03:39 |
|---|
| jrib | cherico: the nvidia drivers work fine for me in hardy from the repositories | 03:39 |
|---|
| iFvwm | right | 03:39 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | gotcha.. i thought it was based on ubuntu | 03:39 |
|---|
| daklan | cherico: the nvidia drivers in hardy work fine with me | 03:39 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | sorry | 03:39 |

| Scunizi | therealnanotube: check out http://paste.ubuntu.com/47312/ it's from some old notes I made getting xinerama to work on Dapper and will probably work on Feisty.. it's been a while | 03:40 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | i need to access my c: drive and am running a live cd. i can't even eject the cd to access my cd rom | 03:40 |
|---|
| jigp | kelvin911 : you bet | 03:40 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | pickthecrowdup. Thats why I use ubuntu :) | 03:41 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: ah i see | 03:41 |
|---|
| cherico | not for me cuz i get a big black empt spot on the right side of the desktop its as if it cant use the whole screen i cant use the resolution i use to use and i cant see the bottom of my screens i open | 03:41 |
|---|
| mn | mk, thx jrib | 03:41 |
|---|
| cherico | makes it hard to install stuff... | 03:41 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: what you need to do is mount your windows partition | 03:41 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | i think i tried that | 03:41 |
|---|
| juan-intrepid | if my kernels are missing from /boot how do i put them back there, ive done update-initramfs but i dont think thats enough | 03:41 |
|---|
| BBLake | question: I have a dedicated linux hard drive. Should my grub.lst have ANYTHING that states windows/vista longhorn in it? (trying to determine reason for long boot times) | 03:41 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | hi qweerty | 03:41 |
|---|
| jigp | kelvin911 : how to put a icon dock there in the bottom? | 03:41 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: type fdisk -l | 03:41 |
|---|
| daklan | oh wow, geos looks cool... in a windows 95 kind of way :) | 03:41 |
|---|
| BBLake | jigp..avant window manager | 03:41 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: and let me see the output | 03:41 |
|---|
| BBLake | check it out | 03:41 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | ok, I have step by step instructions if you want to add tehe awn dock | 03:41 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | type that here? | 03:41 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | hardy? | 03:41 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: in a terminal | 03:42 |
|---|
| jigp | BBLake : i dont have avant window manager in System :( | 03:42 |
|---|
| vbman11 | does anyone here use stormbaan, this is the error I get when I run it: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47306/ | 03:42 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | my c: drive is sda1 | 03:42 |
|---|
| jschiff | ok so | 03:42 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | you have to add repository to bottom of sources.list in /etc/apt then they will show up | 03:42 |
|---|
| daklan | BBLake: won't make a difference. you can update your menu.lst and run update-grub if you want to test your guess | 03:42 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt | 03:42 |
|---|
| juan-intrepid | BBLake: when is the delay in the boot bios? grub? spashscreen? login? | 03:43 |
|---|
| Darkkish | yarr, I just plugged in my WUSB54G is it supposed to auto-recognize it or something? | 03:43 |
|---|
| BBLake | no idea? i just believe an older kernel when i choose as default, boots quickly | 03:43 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: then your windows partition should be mounted on /mnt | 03:43 |
|---|
| Scunizi | jigp: AWN = Avant window navigator.. it's in the repos.. | 03:43 |
|---|
| BBLake | don't have access to any grub boot menu, or any start-up scripts..just black screen until the login window | 03:43 |
|---|
| BBLake | tried to use the grubeditor, and start-up manager. (still working on the latter) | 03:44 |
|---|
| daklan | BBLake: take a look at the contents of /var/log/messages. see if any errors were logged | 03:44 |
|---|
| leighaquarius | jschiff, if his c: drive is ntfs.. won't u need to mount it with ntfs3g? | 03:44 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | is awn the best dock? | 03:44 |
|---|
| BBLake | can i just take out the most current kernels, and try to re-update? | 03:44 |
|---|
| SebNaitsabes | no | 03:44 |
|---|
| SebNaitsabes | cario dock is good | 03:44 |
|---|
| jschiff | leighaquarius: no mount handles it fine | 03:44 |
|---|
| BBLake | kelvin..i think so, there is cairo dock as well | 03:44 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | which one uses less resources? | 03:44 |
|---|
| leighaquarius | jschiff, sweet thnx | 03:45 |
|---|
| juan-intrepid | if you install BUM it should let you choose to see a verbose startup without splash that will give you lots of text, if you look at what it slows down on that will give you a good place to start looking at | 03:45 |
|---|
| jschiff | leighaquarius: if you want to be specific you can mount -t ntfs /dev/xxx /xxx | 03:45 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | ok.. it says can't find /dev/sda1/mnt in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab | 03:45 |
|---|
| jschiff | ah | 03:45 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | do i have to sudo su? | 03:45 |
|---|
| jschiff | you need a space | 03:45 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | never tried others, I run awn | 03:45 |
|---|
| jschiff | between the /dev/sda1 /mnt | 03:45 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | oh | 03:45 |
|---|
| tritium | pickthecrowdup: don't use sudo su. Use sudo -i. | 03:45 |
|---|
| Darkkish | how do i make my WUSB54G work? | 03:45 |
|---|
| juan-intrepid | BBLake: that may work, but i doubt it sudo aptitude reinstall linux-image-generic would be the command | 03:46 |
|---|
| carandraug | jschiff: leighaquarius should you use -t ntfs-3g ? | 03:46 |
|---|
| carandraug | Darkkish: you'll need ndiswrapper | 03:46 |
|---|
| Darkkish | seriously? | 03:46 |
|---|
| Jacobian | kelvin911: If I remember right, AWN requires compiz. I don't use compiz myself, because I don't to give the system resources. You might look into Cairo... | 03:46 |
|---|
| carandraug | !ndiswrapper > Darkkish | 03:46 |
|---|
| ubottu | Darkkish, please see my private message | 03:46 |
|---|
| Darkkish | crap | 03:46 |
|---|
| jschiff | carandraug: man mount and check the types if you want | 03:46 |
|---|
| leighaquarius | carandraug, not sure.. i usually do all my windows partition mounting in fstab | 03:46 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | but the icon in awn is always changing position when u click it | 03:46 |
|---|
| carandraug | Darkkish: I did with mine. It's version 4 | 03:47 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | hey ubuntu with compiz is only pulling 600 megs of ram, :( | 03:47 |
|---|
| BBLake | juan...what about a more current update...would that possibly resolve it? | 03:47 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | very annoying, it doesnt do that before | 03:47 |
|---|
| BBLake | i'm on 19, but i hear .24 is in the repos? | 03:47 |
|---|
| daklan | mount should try to autodetect the filesystem type | 03:47 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | mount is denied because NTFS is marked to be in use | 03:47 |
|---|
| Esquilo | I'm having a little problem with FlyBack... I configured it to backup my files in /media/disk-1, but it shows me that it can't found this device | 03:47 |
|---|
| Darkkish | carandraug, how do i check what version mine is? | 03:47 |
|---|
| BBLake | not sure which way to go. i don't want to have to stay on .14 for the faster boot if i can resolve it | 03:47 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | I don;t think linux can reset ntfs dirty flag | 03:47 |
|---|
| Esquilo | but it is configured and done | 03:47 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: hmm then it may already be mounted | 03:47 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | let me add that the reason i am even using this is because windows took a dump | 03:47 |
|---|
| Dusti[n] | Azazel-A2 its not pulling that much on mine maybe you should kill it and restart | 03:47 |
|---|
| ushimitsudoki | Jacobian: awn requires a composting window manager in general, not compiz specifically | 03:47 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: what does mount say | 03:47 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: just plain simple mount | 03:47 |
|---|
| daklan | Azazel-A2: you can force-mount it, but the flag will remain | 03:47 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | BBLake: if you are talking kernels, yes, please update. The upgrade wont get rid of old kernels, so you can always fall back | 03:48 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | mount | 03:48 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: sudo mount | 03:48 |
|---|
| juan-intrepid | if my kernels are missing from /boot how do i put them back there, ive done update-initramfs but i dont think thats enough | 03:48 |
|---|
| BBLake | quickest way to update? | 03:48 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | awn, compiz, gnome, and all my eyecandy, thats about right | 03:48 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | BBLake: update-manager | 03:48 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: if there is something in there that says /dev/sda1 then it's already mounted | 03:48 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn | Flannel? | 03:48 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | how do i copy and paste from xterm? | 03:48 |
|---|
| carandraug | Darkkish: check around the wireless adaptor. Mine has it written beneath the sliding piece with the thing to glue to some place. There's loads of tutorials on how to get it working on the net | 03:48 |
|---|
| jschiff | BBLake: apt-get update, apt-get upgrade | 03:48 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | juan-intrepid: where did they go? | 03:48 |
|---|

| therealnanotube | Scunizi: yea, besides some nvidia-specific stuff, that's basically what mine looks like as well. the thing is, it basically works, just doesn't use the correct resolution on the external monitor... so i'm guessing i need to figure out what some of those warnings coming out of xorg.0.log mean... | 03:49 |
|---|
| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: highlight over what you want, then right click on this window | 03:49 |

|---|
| pickthecrowdup | ok thanks for trying! | 03:52 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | if wrong kernel is loading you can change the /boot/menu.list file to boot correct kernel | 03:52 |

| jschiff | pickthecrowdup: no prob, hope you get the problem fixed | 03:52 |
|---|
| jschiff | bye all | 03:52 |

| carandraug | Darkkish: I don't think so. But if you got it working with ndisgtk (which sounds like a GUI version of ndisdwrapper), why are you asking? Did you made a fresh install? | 03:52 |

|---|
| favro | gnychis: try sudo update-grub | 03:53 |

| Azazel-A2 | it should. but things happen. I used apt-get to install server, remvoe generic and had to manually correct menu.list, so it doesn't always work | 03:53 |

| kelvin911 | i just dont want them to appear on the desktop for some user account | 03:57 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | yes. but move the mount from media which is auto to /mnt/c and /mnt/d which will not show on desktop | 03:57 |
|---|
| mneptok | Grenyaris: PATA? SATA? SCSI? | 03:57 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | .. /media/anything puts an icon on desktop | 03:58 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | SATA, the real hardware controller thing, not the fake raid... | 03:58 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | ok | 03:58 |
|---|
| carandraug | kelvin911: Azazel-A2 wouldn't it be easier to just tell nautilus to not show mounted partitions in the desktop? Gimme a minutes and I'll find that option in gconf-editor | 03:58 |
|---|
| LSD|Ninja | Grenyaris: 3ware have a decent rep | 03:58 |
|---|
| daklan | Grenyaris: can't remember the model, but it's got 8 SATA ports and great linux support | 03:58 |
|---|
| mneptok | Grenyaris: PCI? PCI-E? | 03:58 |
|---|
| DxC | Hi guys, me again...Heh...Anyway, I was wondering if there's a way to change my username in ubuntu? (*Not* my 'Real Name') | 03:58 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | but what if i want them to show on my account but not the account for others? | 03:58 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | carandraug, perhaps, but its not correct solution for a perminately mounted drive | 03:58 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | PCI or PCIe | 03:58 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | windows c and d are part of his file system not media | 03:59 |
|---|
| LSD|Ninja | Grenyaris: 3ware do both now I believe | 03:59 |
|---|
| mneptok | Grenyaris: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816116030 | 03:59 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | because i dont want my gf mess with c: and d: | 03:59 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | if you put them in mnt make a private directory and chown it to just you and she can't get to them | 03:59 |
|---|
| LSD|Ninja | Grenyaris: If you're serious about this though you may want to consider a SAS RAID controller. You can put SATA discs on it to begin with but have the option to go SAS later on | 03:59 |
|---|
| amrik | Hi I need a little help with firefox | 04:00 |
|---|
| carandraug | Azazel-A2: you think? Why not? I may be wrong but it doesn't matter where it is mounted, it's gnome who's configured to show an icon on the desktop, you just turn that option off. | 04:00 |
|---|
| amrik | the mimetype for opening rm files is set to realplayer but i uninstalled realplayer; how can I reset it back to the way it was ie. get it to default to totem? | 04:00 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | because he might want to see his mp3 player someday | 04:00 |
|---|
| Jacobian | DxC: It looks like this will help you change the username: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-change-rename-user-name-id/ | 04:00 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | carandraug: how to trun it off? | 04:00 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | turn* | 04:00 |
|---|
| DxC | Jacobian - I'll check that out | 04:00 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | you turn it off, you loose usb drives on desktop | 04:01 |
|---|
| mneptok | Azazel-A2: "lose" O:) | 04:01 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | noted ;) | 04:01 |
|---|
| mneptok | (pet peeve) | 04:01 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | maybe i will figure this out later | 04:01 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | anyway how come movie has screen tearing? | 04:02 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | is it the compiz? | 04:02 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | kelvin, my suggestion is fstab and mount them off something like /mnt/windows/what ever and make windows chown for you only so gf can;t see mount points | 04:02 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | Thanks guys, I will look into the 3ware ones, they have a raid 6 and 10 supporter, and that is where I was going to go...also one with SAS, but I don't really wanna spend over $800...however...well, I gotta do what I gotta do... | 04:02 |
|---|
| carandraug | kelvin911: Azazel-A2 is right. You'll also lose usb drives on desktop. If you want to, open gconf-editor and go to Apps > Nautilus > Desktop | 04:02 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | Next question... | 04:02 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | Is there a "parental control" suite for Linux? | 04:02 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i dont wanna lose usb | 04:02 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i have many usb external drives | 04:02 |
|---|
| mneptok | Grenyaris: to filter web content? | 04:03 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | kelvin fstab | 04:03 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | only viable solution | 04:03 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | yes mneptok I know | 04:03 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | yes | 04:03 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | I need to filter web stuff... | 04:03 |
|---|
| mneptok | Grenyaris: http://www.opendns.com/ <--- do it at the DNS level | 04:03 |
|---|
| Jacobian | amrik: Did you get your question answered yet? | 04:03 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | I have heard about "Dan's Guardian" ... | 04:03 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | Grenyaris: you should look into the Christian Ubuntu. It has lots of censorship apps | 04:04 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | UUID=6AA0A5CBA0A59DD7 /media/sda1 ntfs defaults,umask=007,gid=46 0 1 <------- do i change /media/sda1 to /mnt/c ?? | 04:04 |
|---|
| mneptok | Grenyaris: don't bother. use OpenDNS and protect any and all devices on your network. | 04:04 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: no not as yet | 04:04 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | ok, first make /mount/windows then make /mnt/windows/c and d | 04:04 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | you;ll understand the /windows in 1 sec | 04:04 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: basically my real problem is i made the mistake of installing real player | 04:04 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | and do i have to manually mkdir /mnt/c ?? | 04:04 |
|---|
| Grenyaris | Ok, thanks, I will look into OpenDNS... | 04:05 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | sudo -s | 04:05 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | mkdir /mnt/windows | 04:05 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | mkdir /mnt/windows/c | 04:05 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: and now i am trying to get rid of the last traces of it. one of these traces is that it tries to default to /home/amrik/RealPlayer/realplayer to playback real media files | 04:05 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | why /mnt/windows? | 04:05 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | chown root:your_user_name /mnt/windows | 04:05 |
|---|
| Jacobian | amrik: You can set this in Firefox, by going to: Edit->Preferences, and then Applications | 04:05 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | why not just /mnt/c and /mnt/d ? | 04:05 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | chmod a-rwx /mnt/windows | 04:05 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | gf can't see them now | 04:06 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: oh i see the menu. but it isnt letting me get rid of the realplayer option | 04:07 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | chmod ug+rwx /mnt/windows | 04:07 |
|---|
| SebNaitsabes | !mount | 04:07 |

| iFvwm | !fdisk | 04:08 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about fdisk | 04:08 |
|---|
| Jacobian | amrik: There should be two columns, Content Type on the left, and Application on the right. If you click on the line with Application, are you able to change the Application that is used? | 04:08 |
|---|
| amrik | oh i see now | 04:08 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | if i delete file in c: by deleting it using gui, does it move the file to c:\.trash ? | 04:08 |
|---|
| Jacobian | amrik: Ah, excellent :) | 04:08 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: however it still has RealPlayer as the default value | 04:08 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: not quite sure what the realplayer install script did to make it this way but I would like to undo that | 04:09 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | and what if i do rm /media/sda1/myfile? does it gone 4ever? | 04:09 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | no I beleive it will be ~/.local/share/Trash/files as mnt is part of your filesystem and not media | 04:09 |
|---|
| Jacobian | amrik: I would manually change Firefox back, to make sure that it opens with the Application you like. Then you can go to Synaptic, and see if there are any other files that could be deleted. By default, Ubuntu leaves the configuration files when you uninstall a program. But you can remove them through Synaptic (or the command line). | 04:10 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | kelvin. I suggest you add an alias line to .bashrc | 04:10 |
|---|
| pickthecrowdup | help sudo apt-get | 04:10 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | what alias line? | 04:10 |
|---|
| vaportrail124 | anyone know how to use ssh in ubuntu, namely with a haxed iphone | 04:11 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | in alias section add alias rm='mv --target-directory=~/.local/share/Trash/files' then if you use rm is moves delted files to trash barrel and you can empty them on desktop. good for accidental rm *'s and stuff | 04:11 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | my c: now is mounted to /media/sda1, if i do rm -r /media/sda1/* what happen? | 04:11 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | bad idea. umount /media/sda1 | 04:11 |
|---|
| amrik | Jacobian: alright I guess I can live with having an entry in that menu that does nothing. =\ but lesson learned, never install crapware knowingly | 04:11 |
|---|
| Jacobian | amrik: There should be an option to Open with another application... you should be enter Totem there | 04:12 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | even if the file is moved to ~/.local/share/Trash/files if i undelete will the file goes back to the original dir? | 04:12 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | .. /media/sda1 folder is not a real mount point and will disapear after umount | 04:12 |
|---|
| emanuel1 | hello | 04:12 |

| nkei0 | anyone here use vuze? | 04:17 |
|---|
| pancho | i have seen other people using the voice thing, but can't find any tutorial | 04:18 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | nkei0: azureus?? | 04:18 |
|---|
| oupa | Hi. I'm trying to create an openssl CA, following this howto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSSL. I get an error: Unable to load config info from /home... The file is there, so why can't openssl find it? | 04:18 |
|---|
| daklan | pancho: if that's the case, there's gotta be someone who cared to write about it | 04:18 |
|---|
| BBLake | OK, so why do some kernel's take forever to boot, and other kernel | 04:18 |
|---|
| nkei0 | kelvin911: nah, Vuze, it's basically the same thing though, Vuze is the java version that's all pretty | 04:19 |
|---|
| BBLake | 's boot quick | 04:19 |
|---|
| BBLake | ?? | 04:19 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i installed vuze in windows in a new pc. i think it has lots of useless feature | 04:19 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | the old 1 is a lot better | 04:19 |
|---|
| nkei0 | i just liked how easy it was to access all of the HD content on vuze with it | 04:20 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: It might be that there is a problem with the data inside the CA that is preventing it from being loaded. Is there any way you could check the contents? | 04:20 |
|---|
| daklan | any bittorrent feature other than file sharing is useless | 04:20 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | daklan: yes | 04:20 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | hey guys, I'm getting LBA and CHS mismatch errors after I partition my dual boot setup and when I rewrite the MBR using testdisk it skips my grub bootloader and boots right to windows... | 04:20 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | any ideas or anyone come across this problem before? | 04:20 |
|---|
| carandraug | daklan: selective download is not useless | 04:21 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | daklan: thanks for your opinion, but thats not true, nor particularly relevant to #ubuntu | 04:21 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i like torrent client jsut be torrent client, not file browser or internet browser | 04:21 |
|---|
| blogger08 | any good, firefox extension to download youtube video? | 04:21 |
|---|
| oupa | jacobian: I don't know of a way. only eyeballs. it looks right to me | 04:21 |
|---|
| nkei0 | daklan: Yeah, but all of the content on vuze is legal, so i like that part... | 04:21 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | or even media player | 04:21 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | daklan... newcomer to bittorrent huh? | 04:21 |
|---|
| Azazel-A2 | they all beat the windows dock | 04:22 |
|---|
| oupa | jacobian: the openssl site says that this erro means that the file is not found | 04:22 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: Well, the main things I can think of that might prevent the file from opening are unexpected permissions or a file path problem. Could either of those be the problem? | 04:22 |
|---|
| daklan | gbear14275: not quite. just don't care about "features" | 04:22 |
|---|
| nkei0 | danbh_intrepid: Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knew of a sound way to get vuze to work with ubuntu 8.04, i had it working earlier today but my dual boot with windows crashed everything so now i'm ubuntu only | 04:22 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i dont use torrent anymore | 04:22 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | torrent is slow most of the time | 04:22 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | what do you consider "features"? | 04:22 |
|---|
| blogger08 | anyone | 04:22 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | torrents are slow? compared to what kelvin? | 04:22 |
|---|
| chubs | blogger08, search the firefox extensions page | 04:22 |

| iFvwm | kelvin911: benliud is good software on bottorrent. | 04:23 |

| kelvin911 | rapidshare | 04:23 |

| Azazel-A2 | not for firefox 3 or better :( | 04:23 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i can download rapidshare at 1250 KB/s | 04:23 |

| iFvwm | or rtorrent | 04:23 |

| kelvin911 | compare to torrent 60KB/s most of the time | 04:23 |

| blogger08 | its not there, but there is one i use but cant remember the namechubs, | 04:23 |

| oupa | jaconian: the file is in my home directory and I'm running openssl as me and I'm using the full path | 04:24 |
|---|
| oupa | jacobian: the file is in my home directory and I'm running openssl as me and I'm using the full path | 04:24 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | well if you can find everything on rapidshare at 1250kbps then i'd go for it then | 04:24 |

| Wolf23 | hello friends | 04:26 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | i dual boot | 04:26 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: I wonder if you could check the logs, and see if there was an access attempt at another location? | 04:26 |
|---|
| oupa | jacobian: I cut and paste the path from the error message and open the file with nano | 04:26 |
|---|
| bazhang | gbear14275, did you install xp second | 04:26 |
|---|
| BBLake | !kernels | 04:26 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about kernels | 04:26 |
|---|
| Wolf23 | somebody help me please! | 04:26 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | kelvin, you ever run into any chs and lba mismatch errors? | 04:26 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: That would tell you where the certificate was expected to be | 04:26 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | no, xp first then ubuntu afterwards | 04:26 |
|---|
| chubs | !anyone | Wolf23 | 04:26 |
|---|
| ubottu | Wolf23: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 04:26 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: Hmm, I see | 04:26 |
|---|
| kelvin911 | gbear14275: what? | 04:26 |
|---|
| bazhang | gbear14275, what is the exact prob then | 04:26 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | partition out some extra space and run testdisk.... come back with a slew of chs and lba mismatches | 04:26 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: All right, you're running this from your own user, and the file was also created by you? | 04:27 |
|---|
| oupa | jacobian: yes | 04:27 |
|---|
| gbear14275 | would like to fix them but this is the second time that after rewriting the mbr its killed my boot partition | 04:27 |
|---|
| Wolf23 | chubs: thanx : ) , but please i have a video .avi and i want to cut from it the begining of the movie,how can i do this on ubuntu plz? | 04:27 |
|---|
| Jacobian | oupa: Is there any chance the certificate is being accessed by root? I know with apache, the server is started by root, and then switches over the user account that you specify. | 04:27 |
|---|

|---|
| BBLake | so i just default my system to the old one to boot from, and leave everything else as is? | 04:35 |

|---|
| carandraug | nlksg: you can check if you have it installed or not by running "gnome-app-install" in the terminal | 04:35 |
|---|
| Guest16753 | BBLake, no. Unless you switch between two, you probably only use one and the others have just not been removed. At least, that was true in debian. | 04:35 |

|---|
| Flannel | bullgard4: as of FF3 (and the advent of the awesomebar), everything is kept in a database (which is accessed via SQL), I believe including the bookmarks. | 05:20 |
|---|
| baber | when i want installed ubuntu 8.4 don't ask me any pass for root but now when i want use root have to type pass what's pass? | 05:20 |

| hwilde | !root | baber | 05:21 |

| ubottu | baber: 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 | 05:22 |

| hwilde | Kompuntu, have you used the mouse on both machines | 05:29 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Error 22 eh | 05:29 |
|---|
| cheeky | hwilde: from wat i started to read .. and gain .. knowledge ..was as a security measure you could actually move your home directorey to a different partition ..which i thought was hella neat | 05:29 |
|---|
| Kompuntu | well...i have two boxes: XP and Ubuntu Hardy. XP being the Synergy server. When i switch the kbd/mouse to Ubuntu - the side buttons on the mouse no longer work. | 05:29 |
|---|
| acrousey | walking asterisk: do you know what error 22 is? | 05:29 |
|---|
| Kompuntu | And on XP the mouse works fine, probably because the drivers are installed on XP... | 05:30 |

| hwilde | Kompuntu, does the mouse work on both machines independently | 05:30 |

| WalkingAsterisk | acrousey, are you still using a live cd or did you install ? | 05:31 |

| hwilde | acrousey, it means grub is pointing at the wrong partition, did you see the message from ubottu | 05:31 |

| Kompuntu | Ok, hang on, i'll try that. brb | 05:31 |
|---|
| vocx | acrousey, you should not ask questions about intrepid in this channel. Go to #ubuntu+1 for more support. Booting errors are common in unstable releases. | 05:31 |

|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Are you running the latest live cd acrousey ? | 05:32 |
|---|
| acrousey | WalkingAsterisk: the cd isn't in the drive, I removed it so that I could get into 8.04 | 05:32 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | acrousey, if its a live cd you need the cd in the drive | 05:33 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | it needs to read from the disc to run | 05:33 |
|---|
| acrousey | walkingasterisk: I have 8.04 installed on the computer | 05:33 |
|---|
| acrousey | i'm not on that computer now | 05:33 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | so is it the 8.04 thats installed giving an error or the live cd ? | 05:33 |
|---|
| acrousey | no live cd | 05:34 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | ..... | 05:34 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn_ | Flannel? | 05:34 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn_ | Sorry. | 05:34 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | based on google. The grub config is borked. Its pointing to the wrong drive or not seeing a master. I really dont know how to springboard you though. Maybe someone else mite know. | 05:35 |
|---|
| acrousey | i restarted the computer from the live cd... it then asks you to remove the cd and push enter... I did that... upon the reboot, i get the Error 22 | 05:35 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn_ | Flannel: I was disconnected, the last message I got was the one saying that you need to take a look for a workaround. | 05:35 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Why do you need a live cd if you have ubuntu installed acrousey | 05:35 |
|---|
| Monotoko | hiya guys | 05:35 |

|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | it is the installed os thats giving the error ? | 05:36 |
|---|
| acrousey | walkingasterisk: I wanted to see if there were any differences between 8.04 and the new alpha of 8.10 | 05:36 |

| Monotoko | im having a few problems mounting my drives, i just get "unable to mount drives" whenever i try and access my drives | 05:36 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Again its your grub config file. Its pointing to the wrong drive | 05:36 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Im unsure of how a live cd would make that happen though. | 05:36 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Try not putting the cd in at all and doing a clean reboot | 05:37 |
|---|
| jthan | I'm trying to reconfigure my fileserver, and It's going well up to this point, but when I plug in my external hard drive it auto-mounts it. I want to unmount it, but it keeps saying "umount: /: device is busy" can someone please help me? | 05:37 |
|---|
| Monotoko | how do i fix that? (im running vista and ubuntu) | 05:37 |
|---|
| acrousey | sounds good | 05:37 |
|---|
| Monotoko | ahh | 05:37 |
|---|
| acrousey | same live cd? | 05:37 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Dont put any cd in | 05:37 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Just reboot with no cd and see if your installed OS boots. | 05:37 |
|---|
| acrousey | i tried it about three times... same results | 05:38 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | Unfortunately beyond that. I don't have the skill to aid you further. All i can suggest is google. If all else fails a clean install maybe. | 05:38 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | If there are things on the drive you dont want to loose. You mite be able to mount it in another computer and pull the data | 05:39 |
|---|
| vocx | acrousey, you can most probably edit the grub file with the live cd, you may have to check the UUID of the partition. | 05:39 |
|---|
| acrousey | UUID? | 05:39 |
|---|
| vocx | WalkingAsterisk, doing a reinstall seems a little excessive. | 05:40 |
|---|
| vocx | !uuid | acrousey | 05:40 |
|---|
| ubottu | acrousey: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) | 05:40 |
|---|
| WalkingAsterisk | It would be vocx, I just ment that as a last resort if he cant fix it. Its better then a dead machine | 05:40 |
|---|
| Monotoko | guys, how do i mount my drives, as my C drive sint showing >.> | 05:40 |
|---|
| Monotoko | well, its showing | 05:40 |
|---|
| acrousey | vocx: sound i'd just have to run that command from the a live CD? | 05:40 |
|---|
| Monotoko | i just get "unable to mount drive" | 05:40 |
|---|
| linux_ | hello there | 05:41 |
|---|
| Monotoko | hi | 05:41 |
|---|
| acrousey | vocx *so i'd just have to run that comman from the shell in the live CD? | 05:41 |
|---|
| linux_ | need help | 05:41 |
|---|
| linux_ | would like to set up an ubuntu print server with lpd service | 05:42 |
|---|
| vocx | acrousey, the UUID appears in the file /etc/fstab, maybe when you ran the Live CD, the UUID changed, so now when you try to boot normally, grub doesn't find the correct disk because of it. Then you need to change the file. | 05:42 |
|---|
| linux_ | is there a howto I can refer to? | 05:42 |
|---|
| skylar_ | my dyndns name sends a browser in my network to the modem set-up page/screen/IP. What do I need to do to get "It Works!"? | 05:43 |
|---|
| linux_ | you see it's important that the other linux clients be able to find the printers within the network via queue names | 05:44 |
|---|
| vocx | acrousey, I would advice on reading "man fstab" for more information. Also, grub sometimes throws errors because something happened to the drive. Try unplugging it, and plugging it back. Check the BIOS for changes. Seems odd that it would just stop working like that. | 05:44 |
|---|
| skylar_ | for anywhere on the www.... | 05:45 |

|---|
| Flannel | evilGUI: That'd be a topic for #ubuntu-offtopic, not here. Thanks. | 05:45 |
|---|
| vocx | acrousey, you may also reinstall grub with the aid of the live cd, or with supergrub disk. I would try this first. But you need to read on it, since I don't reinstall grub every day, I don't remember the exact commands off the top of my head. | 05:46 |

| bullgard4 | Flannel: I find it difficult to subscribe my Irssi to yet another IRC network. Otherwise I would be glad to discuss in #firefox. (It is also rare to get help in #irssi: Answers yes, but help rarely.) | 05:56 |
|---|
| Flannel | Nutzebahn: Oh, the bug report solution has a typo. Try this instead: sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libsasl2* | 05:56 |
|---|
| Flannel | bullgard4: you want /connect [server] (/server [server] disconnects you from this one) | 05:57 |
|---|
| Flannel | bullgard4: then in your status window, you can use ctrl-x to switch between them (to specify which server to join channels on) | 05:57 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn | Flannel: Successfully installed libsasl.. :) | 05:58 |

| skylar_ | Trying 127.0.0.1... telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused Anyone got an idea? | 05:58 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn | Flannel: WHat now? | 05:58 |
|---|
| iFvwm | bullgard4: better way is use opera | 05:58 |
|---|
| Flannel | bullgard4: But, as for the helpfulness of #firefox, I'm not sure. But google should help (and trying .db files in your firefox profile ought to be short too, there can't be too many) | 05:58 |
|---|
| Flannel | Nutzebahn: try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 05:58 |
|---|
| Flannel | Nutzebahn: theoretically, that'll work (so says the bugreport) | 05:59 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn | Flannel: Do you think it will take more hours? I don't have hours. | 05:59 |

| jigp | fyrestrtr : like a dock icons that can be found in the bottom of the desktop...how to do it?i.e when you open mozilla it will display in the dock bottom... | 06:02 |
|---|
| jim_p | Kompuntu: kde or gnome? | 06:02 |
|---|
| iFvwm | bullgard4: an embeded irc client within opera. it's very simple to use. irssi is not so pleasure to use. | 06:02 |

|---|
| Nutzebahn | Thank you. :) | 06:04 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | iFvwm: I believe, it is much a matter of preference if one uses Opera or not. I like Irssi's small footprint. I dislike that there is no comprehensive User manual for Irssi. | 06:04 |
|---|
| Kompuntu | already there, what am i looking for? VM? | 06:04 |
|---|
| EvolutionXtinct | i would hopefully think atleast 1 person otuta 100 would know | 06:04 |
|---|
| jigp | fyrestrtr : yes but how to remove the duplicated session? when i open mozilla, i have 1 mozilla icon in dock and i have also 1 icon in the left bar... :( | 06:05 |
|---|
| jim_p | Kompuntu: go to apps > nautilus > desktop and uncheck the "volumes_visible" setting | 06:05 |
|---|
| EvolutionXtinct | plus adaptec is something atleast people in the IT industry should know. | 06:05 |
|---|
| J-n | EvolutionXtinct: yeah but you've only given those people 2 min to respond to your questions. i see about 1200 users.. but most are probally afk.. only see about 20 actively talking. | 06:05 |

|---|
| vocx | Guest83520, why do you want to install glib 2.7? | 06:08 |
|---|
| Guest83520 | glibc 2.7 is required for fakeroot which is required for qt-x11 which after all that i can fianlly compile and install smplayer-0.6.2 | 06:10 |
|---|
| Flannel | Nutzebahn: Let me know if it works | 06:10 |
|---|
| iFvwm | smplayer need compiled? | 06:10 |
|---|
| Nutzebahn | I will. | 06:10 |
|---|
| Guest83520 | running ubuntu 5.10 so yes | 06:10 |
|---|
| Flannel | bullgard4: Theres plenty of information out there for irssi. #ubuntu-offtopic is generally a good place to ask | 06:11 |
|---|
| iFvwm | ... | 06:11 |
|---|
| Flannel | Guest83520: You need to upgrade. | 06:11 |
|---|
| Remorse_ | hi | 06:11 |
|---|
| Guest83520 | they only have .deb for ubuntu 7.04 | 06:11 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | Flannel: OK. | 06:11 |
|---|
| Guest83520 | minimum requirements are too high | 06:11 |
|---|
| Flannel | Guest83520: 5.10 is no longer support (and hasn't been for over a year), you should upgrade to 6.06. and then consider upgrading straight from 6.06 to 8.04 | 06:11 |
|---|
| Guest83520 | my machine only has 266mhz processor and 128mb memory | 06:12 |
|---|
| iFvwm | Flannel: 6.06 can directlly upgrade to 8.04? | 06:12 |
|---|
| Flannel | iFvwm: LTS to LTS, yes. | 06:12 |
|---|
| Kompuntu | nope, same story, as soon as i mount it - its back on the desktop... | 06:12 |
|---|
| jim_p | iFvwm: i think its already packed to a .deb | 06:12 |
|---|
| Flannel | Guest83520: You should think about xubuntu then. But 6.06 should be fine with Ubuntu for your machine. | 06:12 |
|---|
| crd1b | Guest83520: so use Xubuntu; the system requirements of ubuntu have not changed dramatically between 5.10 and 8.04 | 06:12 |
|---|
| vocx | Guest83520, but you don't even need glib 2.7, you can use 2.6 or a previous version, right? | 06:13 |
|---|
| Flannel | crd1b: Between breezy and hardy, yes they have. | 06:13 |

|---|
| jim_p | Kompuntu: do your other partitions appear on the desktop? | 06:14 |
|---|
| Flannel | Guest83520: regardless of that package, you really do need to upgrade to 6.06. You've got a number of vulnerabilities that will never be patched | 06:14 |
|---|
| Kompuntu | nope, just this one...i found a second drive, plugged it in, created an ext3 partition, formatted and mounted | 06:14 |

| Jordan_U | anom01y: growisofs is in the repos | 06:38 |
|---|
| anom01y | hmm I don't see it in mine | 06:38 |
|---|
| anom01y | yeah it is not there.. | 06:39 |

| Jordan_U | anom01y: The package name is not always the same as the command ( many packages contain multiple commands ), to find a package to go along with a command either try running the command and Ubuntu's command not found magic should tell you what to install or use "apt-file search <command>" | 06:41 |
|---|
| num1 | shishio: run pa -aux to find the process number of the process, then run kill -kill [process number] | 06:41 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | Please tell me where is yast in ubuntu? If no Yast what is the ubuntu proggy | 06:41 |
|---|
| shishio | num1, ty ill try now | 06:41 |
|---|
| iFvwm | sfer3: perhaps you lauched some QT software. and which occupied your sound card? | 06:42 |
|---|
| shishio | num1, ty it works | 06:42 |
|---|
| num1 | shishio: no problem | 06:42 |
|---|
| sfer3 | iFvwm: Nope, not any software I launched... have restarted several times. | 06:42 |
|---|
| iFvwm | .. | 06:43 |
|---|
| anom01y | Jordan_U: I had that makedvd+rtools package installed, and, apt-file search give me command not found | 06:43 |
|---|
| iFvwm | or you had upgraded kernel? sfer3 | 06:43 |
|---|
| Flannel | BimmerBoy: YaST isn't in Ubuntu | 06:43 |
|---|
| anom01y | Jordan_U: nm I got apt-file now duhhh | 06:43 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | no Yast? I changed display drivers and cant boot properly. gives me the tty everytime. | 06:44 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | How do I change display settings then if there is no setup program ? | 06:44 |
|---|
| iFvwm | BimmerBoy: nvidia' card? | 06:44 |
|---|
| iFvwm | ati? intel? | 06:45 |

| BimmerBoy | intel 915 laptop HP nx6110 | 06:45 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | BimmerBoy: sudo dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh | 06:45 |
|---|
| tyler_ | how do i remote another compputer? | 06:46 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | BimmerBoy: Sorry, that should be "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" | 06:46 |
|---|
| iFvwm | tyler_: vnc/ssh | 06:46 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | BimmerBoy: You can also accomplish the same thing by booting into "recovery mode" and choosing fix X | 06:47 |
|---|
| === edwinmmoore_ is now known as edwinmmoore |
| tyler_ | what? | 06:47 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | booting into recovery - howto please? | 06:48 |
|---|
| iFvwm | !ssh | 06:48 |
|---|
| ubottu | 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/ | 06:48 |
|---|
| iFvwm | !vnc | 06:49 |
|---|
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 06:49 |
|---|
| negativerad | Is there a program for linux that does this? http://mion.faireal.net/BES/ | 06:49 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | Ok gotit - jusst hit esc - simple | 06:49 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | BimmerBoy: When you see "GRUB" at boot hit escape, choose the "recovery mode" option ( you will also be given the option to boot into any older kernels you still have installed, choose the first recovery mode option ) | 06:50 |
|---|
| iFvwm | :D | 06:50 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | OK, I got the prompt. Now what? | 06:50 |
|---|
| sfer3 | iFvwm: Yes, I think it was after I updated something with the kernel... | 06:51 |
|---|
| sfer3 | (sorry about such a delayed reply) | 06:51 |
|---|
| J-n | negativerad: which features spesifically are you looking for? | 06:51 |
|---|
| chipr | how do i reconfigure X server for my hardware? i ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org but it gives a failsafe config that does vesa 800x600 | 06:52 |
|---|
| ushimitsudoki1 | negativerad: have you already looked at 'renice' and 'cpulimit'? | 06:52 |
|---|
| iFvwm | sfer3: sometimes when kernel upgraded, would bring hardware problem. uname -r. show your kernel version plz. | 06:52 |
|---|
| negativerad | ushimitsudoki1... cpulimit for each process | 06:52 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | chipr: What GPU ? | 06:52 |
|---|
| sfer3 | uname -r results: 2.6.24-19-generic | 06:53 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | recovery mode takes me to the cmd prompt. It now expects some kind of input. Why is there a pain with display settings? Everytime I try to change it I end up at the cmd prompt. | 06:53 |
|---|
| iFvwm | sfer3： so find if linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic has been installed. | 06:54 |
|---|
| ushimitsudoki1 | negativerad: cpulimit lets you target a pid i'm not sure what more you need | 06:54 |
|---|
| === ushimitsudoki1 is now known as ushimitsudoki |
| negativerad | ushimitsudoki... oh so there is something on linux called cpulimit ? | 06:54 |
|---|
| negativerad | sweet | 06:55 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | BimmerBoy: What version of Ubuntu are you using? It shouldn't take you to a command prompt in hardy IIRC. Either way, while you are there try running "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" | 06:55 |
|---|
| ushimitsudoki | negativerad: yes. please check out 'renice' and 'cpulimit'. One or the other may do what you need | 06:55 |
|---|
| sfer3 | iFvwm: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic is not installed, should I install it? | 06:55 |
|---|
| iFvwm | sfer3: yes | 06:55 |
|---|
| negativerad | ushimitsudoki... thanks ! | 06:55 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Okay | 06:55 |
|---|
| Remorse_ | sup? | 06:56 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | sfer3: You should install the package "linux" that way your kernel and restricted modules will automatically stay up-to-date | 06:56 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | Hi Jordan_U. I tried your command, but it did not fix this. After a reboot I still hang up at the 'Running local boot scripts )/etc/rc.local). | 06:56 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | BimmerBoy: It may not be a graphics problem then | 06:57 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | chipr: Have you tried System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers ? | 06:57 |
|---|
| orifice | what happens when you write an MBR from a drive to a larger drive directly (i.e. with dd) | 06:57 |
|---|
| Remorse_ | I'll think about it | 06:58 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | from cmd? thats all I have now | 06:58 |
|---|
| orifice | will the partitions be created and leave left over free space ? | 06:58 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Installed - should I restart? | 06:58 |
|---|
| sfer3 | I will. | 06:58 |
|---|
| iFvwm | :D | 06:58 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | I will try to goto recovery mode choosing an even earlier version: Ubuntu 7.10 kernel 2.6.22-14-generic (recvery mode) | 06:59 |
|---|
| schnoowork | anyone know of a good program on ubuntu to view .flv files ? | 06:59 |
|---|
| Seveas | orifice, iirc yes | 06:59 |
|---|
| Seveas | schnoowork, mplayer | 06:59 |
|---|
| jim_p | schnoowork: mplayer +some frontend | 07:00 |
|---|
| comicinker | schnoowork: vlc media player | 07:00 |
|---|
| iFvwm | brower with plugin also do it. schnoowork | 07:00 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | Takes me straight to the cmd prompt... | 07:00 |
|---|
| iFvwm | BimmerBoy: kaiwen use intel' card. you can ask him. | 07:02 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | I tried your command again. Tells me it is over writing the custom config. I think this may work - let's reboot | 07:02 |
|---|
| iFvwm | simplly delete xorg.conf. maybe more easy | 07:03 |
|---|
| BimmerBoy | Thanks all, I have to leave now. I will have to return later to wrap it up - i am late... | 07:03 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Problem solved - thanks iFvwm! | 07:05 |
|---|
| iFvwm | :D | 07:06 |

| ubottu | the_zemo: 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. :-) | 07:07 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | hey i got a question | 07:08 |
|---|
| the_zemo | ok, sounds good. I am downloading ubuntu 8.04 i386 and I want to know how is the flash player working on it? I used it before and was unable to view youtube videos in full screen. Is it still the same? | 07:09 |
|---|
| J-n | !ask > malcolm_ | 07:09 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | flash player works fine | 07:09 |
|---|
| ubottu | malcolm_, please see my private message | 07:09 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | yea i read your message | 07:09 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | ill try fit it in one line | 07:09 |
|---|
| Ububegin | I have a password for a sudo user... So i typed sudo -s.. But the console says " John is not in the sudoers file. This incident will be reported." .. So shld i use someother sudo command | 07:10 |
|---|
| sfer3 | sudo su for the superuser? | 07:10 |
|---|
| rofl | no sudo su for the soup user | 07:10 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | i have installed lamp , in a directory /opt/ when i save a file it saves to /home/malcolm/ how do isave it to /opt/lamp/ | 07:10 |

| haelen | Hi. How do I "unblacklist) something (i.e. my sound card) after blacklisting it? | 07:11 |
|---|
| cosmo | I am fairly new to ubuntu and clueless when it comes to setting up Samba so that the windows xp machines on my home network can share files back and forth, anyone have a guide or willing to walk me through it? I tried using GSAMBAD but I think I might have just made things worse | 07:11 |
|---|
| J-n | the_zemo you do have to install the non-free flash player and the plugin for firefox, if i recall.. but i can watch youtube in fullscreen np | 07:11 |
|---|
| pen | do you have any favorite to-do programs? | 07:11 |
|---|
| Ububegin | iFvwm: my colleague just told me to type "su" .. and it works... :D | 07:12 |
|---|
| pen | have anyone here know any to-do programs for ubuntu? | 07:12 |
|---|
| the_zemo | J-n: how do I know which is the non-free flash player? | 07:12 |
|---|
| iFvwm | Ububegin: of course, su also can do it | 07:13 |
|---|
| thenetduck | I was wondering if anyone here has experience with a ThinkPad? I get clicking from my hard drive is that normal? | 07:13 |
|---|
| Flannel | su won't work on Ubuntu, because there's no root password. Use sudo instead. | 07:13 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | has anyone beaten the pc in four in a row ? | 07:13 |
|---|
| J-n | !flash | the_zemo | 07:13 |

| ubottu | the_zemo: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 07:13 |
|---|
| Flannel | Ububegin: did you mess up your groups on that user/ | 07:13 |
|---|
| iFvwm | sudo su | 07:13 |
|---|
| J-n | that should talk ya through it pretty well :) | 07:13 |
|---|
| pen | have anyone here know any to-do programs for ubuntu? | 07:14 |
|---|
| the_zemo | thanks to all who commented. I really appreciate it. I find using the IRC better than the forums. | 07:14 |
|---|
| Flannel | iFvwm: No. | 07:14 |
|---|
| iFvwm | gtodo? pen | 07:14 |
|---|
| waan | Ububegin, you can use "sudo su" | 07:14 |
|---|
| iFvwm | Flannel: ? | 07:14 |
|---|
| Flannel | Use sudo -i instead. | 07:14 |
|---|
| Flannel | or sudo -s, depending on what you're looking for. | 07:15 |
|---|
| iFvwm | i like echo xxx|sudo -s. :D | 07:15 |
|---|
| Ububegin | waan: so many sudo commands.. so whats the difference. | 07:15 |
|---|
| pen | iFvwm, ? | 07:15 |
|---|
| pen | iFvwm, is that really for ubuntu? | 07:15 |
|---|
| Flannel | iFvwm: please don't give out bad information in this channel. | 07:15 |
|---|
| waan | Ububegin, sudo uses root, su just uses elevated priviliges | 07:15 |
|---|
| Flannel | waan: No, that's backwards. | 07:15 |
|---|
| thenetduck | can anyone help me understand what's going on with my hard drive? | 07:15 |
|---|
| iFvwm | pen: you can search software by excute aptitude search ~dtodo | 07:15 |
|---|
| waan | Flannel, Ububegin ohh my bad | 07:15 |
|---|
| pen | iFvwm, ~dtodo?? | 07:16 |
|---|
| pen | iFvwm, why ~d | 07:16 |
|---|
| iFvwm | Flannel: bad infor? | 07:16 |
|---|
| iFvwm | ~d is search in descript | 07:16 |
|---|
| pen | iFvwm, k thx | 07:17 |
|---|
| waan | Ububegin, the other way around | 07:17 |
|---|
| Ububegin | waan: huh... :S ... i think i just stick to su... | 07:18 |
|---|
| Flannel | Ububegin: no, stick with sudo. | 07:18 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | what does changing the home folder within managing users do ? | 07:18 |
|---|
| J-n | ububegin - better just use sudo it's safest and probally all you'll need. | 07:18 |
|---|
| waan | Ububegin, sudo is safer | 07:19 |
|---|
| chubs | it's not like su will kill him | 07:19 |
|---|
| thenetduck | is it normal for my hard drive to make clicking sounds? | 07:19 |
|---|
| sfer3 | malcom_: Change the user's home folder location | 07:19 |
|---|
| waan | chubs, it might.. | 07:19 |
|---|
| u-haul | thenetduck: I don't know about yours, but mine doesn't click normally. | 07:19 |
|---|
| Ububegin | Flannel: but sudo -s... alone .. doesnt let me enter the password | 07:19 |
|---|
| J-n | thenetduck depends... does it usually do it? ;) ... to me that sounds like a bad thing, but it could be that your drive is just noisy? | 07:19 |
|---|
| Flannel | chubs: this channel, and many other Ubuntu resources, assume you have the root account locked. We don't support enablingthe root account. | 07:19 |
|---|
| Flannel | Ububegin: What? | 07:19 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | how do i grant my self access to change files not within my home folder ? like /file/ | 07:20 |
|---|
| J-n | ububegin do "sudo -s thingyouwannado" | 07:20 |
|---|
| Flannel | No. sudo -s is like sudo -i | 07:20 |
|---|
| sfer3 | malcom_: sudo chmod 0777 (directory) | 07:20 |
|---|
| sfer3 | From terminal | 07:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | It gives you a shell. If oyu wnat to do a single command, sudo [command] | 07:21 |
|---|
| J-n | oh | 07:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | sfer3, malcolm_: no, DO NOT do that. | 07:21 |
|---|
| J-n | my mistake | 07:21 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Really? | 07:21 |
|---|
| chubs | don't forget your -r for recursiveness | 07:21 |
|---|
| sfer3 | I suppose all I do is pretty insecure... | 07:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | !stop | 07:21 |
|---|
| ubottu | NOTICE - Please stop this discussion NOW. See !offtopic for things that are inappropriate to discuss in this channel. Continuing will result in action being taken. | 07:21 |
|---|
| chubs | and don't do that on / | 07:21 |
|---|
| iFvwm | :D | 07:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | er, dag nabbit | 07:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | wrong one. Anyway, *dont* chmod, use sudo. | 07:21 |
|---|
| sfer3 | But he said he wants to grant himself access? I thought he meant more than just a one-off. | 07:22 |
|---|
| Flannel | Sorry sorry, everyone whos wondering what that factoid is for, its just me being stupid. | 07:22 |
|---|
| Flannel | sfer3: that would be done through other means, and likely should *not* be done on a permanent basis to begin with. | 07:22 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Flannel: Just out of interest, what should I use instead? | 07:23 |
|---|
| thenetduck | J-n, well it's a new ThinkPad and I didn't think it was noisy, but I installed ubuntu and I and worried if it has something to do with improper heads being loaded/unloaded. See this bug here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acpi-support/+bug/59695 | 07:23 |
|---|
| iFvwm | maybe all newbie would use gui instead it. ：D | 07:23 |
|---|
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 59695 in dell "High frequency of load/unload cycles on some hard disks may shorten lifetime" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 07:24 |
|---|
| chubs | It's still good to know. malcolm_ there are certain situations where chmod and chown (change owner) are appropriate, but in most cases shouldn't be used on files outside of your home directory | 07:24 |
|---|
| Flannel | sfer3: If it really is on a permanent basis (which it likely isn't), it depends on what you're doing, but you'd likely set the groupto somethign appropriate, and add yourself to said group. | 07:24 |
|---|
| iFvwm | install nautilus-sudo script. | 07:24 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | so whats the solution ? | 07:24 |
|---|
| Flannel | malcolm_: What file is it? Why do you need to access it? | 07:24 |
|---|
| chubs | malcolm_, sudo gedit file if it's a text file. or whatever program you need. It depends alot on where and what the file(s) is | 07:25 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | im doing web development and everytime i want to save a file i have to logon as root , copy to the directory and then reload ? | 07:25 |
|---|
| Flannel | malcolm_: so, this is inside /var/www | 07:25 |
|---|
| KinGBaKeRo | #urbanterror | 07:25 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | it gets a bit much after a while | 07:25 |
|---|
| KinGBaKeRo | yo! | 07:25 |
|---|
| chubs | malcolm_, you should probably set up a separate user for a webserver | 07:25 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | no i installam lamp in its own directory | 07:25 |
|---|
| Flannel | malcolm_: Why'd you do that? | 07:25 |
|---|
| kohv | Hi. I'm looking for help for creating an Intrepid boot USB stick, where should I go with that? | 07:25 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | didnt know any better | 07:25 |
|---|
| Flannel | chubs: www-data already is set up. | 07:25 |
|---|
| Ububegin | hi folks, i have used sftp to login to a remote server via the nautilus windows.. but i said save the password forever.. how can i logout from the sftp | 07:26 |
|---|
| chubs | malcolm_, you should probably use www-data :) | 07:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | kohv: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid support | 07:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | chubs: No, that's still not the solution. | 07:26 |
|---|
| skiquel | hi, I'm trying to permanently change the time on my ubuntu server but it keeps changing on reset, is there a tutorial you can point me to? | 07:26 |
|---|
| iFvwm | malcolm_: you also can sudo ln -s ~/log/xxx /var/www/xxx | 07:26 |
|---|
| kohv | Thanks, Flannel :) | 07:26 |
|---|
| chubs | Flannel, and why not? | 07:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | chubs: use the www-data group, not the user. Wait and see. | 07:26 |
|---|
| iFvwm | malcolm_: add to www group | 07:27 |
|---|
| rkvirani | What is a good reliable dynamic dns service out there? | 07:27 |
|---|
| J-n | thenetduck did ya read all the way down on that page you sent me, it looks like maybe people have posted some solutions? | 07:27 |
|---|
| iFvwm | www-data group | 07:27 |
|---|
| chubs | just adding yourself to a group is strange for a webserver, but i guess it doesn't matter | 07:28 |
|---|
| malcolm_ | iFVwm: is thta as a user ? | 07:28 |
|---|
| iFvwm | www-data ← | 07:28 |
|---|
| Flannel | malcolm_: Alright, first, you'll want to use apache (and the rest of LAMP if you need it) from the repos. Then, your stuff will go in /var/www by default, which is a reasonable enough place for it. you'll want to add yourself to the www-data group (adduser username www-data) and then make it so /var/www is writable by group (chmod g+w /var/www) | 07:28 |
|---|
| rkvirani | any ideas? | 07:29 |
|---|
| Flannel | rkvirani: I've never had problems with dyndns | 07:29 |
|---|
| rkvirani | Flannel: cool thanks | 07:29 |
|---|
| Flannel | skiquel: What is it changing to? what timezone are you in? | 07:29 |
|---|
| Flannel | malcolm_: Also, if this is just for hosting stuff from you, you can make use of userdir, which allows stuff in ~/public_html to be visible at host/~username/ | 07:30 |
|---|
| iFvwm | someone type is so faster... | 07:30 |
|---|
| cheeky | hey does any one have a script to clear .. your current iptables settings ? | 07:30 |
|---|
| naughtykid001 | hi, can I have users which sharing the same home directory??? | 07:31 |
|---|
| skiquel | central, I think I may have found something, is it about setting up a symbolic link to /etc/localtime... and central | 07:31 |
|---|
| Flannel | naughtykid001: What are you hoping to accomplish? | 07:31 |
|---|
| sfer3 | naughtykid001: Probably, set it in users/groups - but you may have some sort of conflict with programs. Why do you need to do this? | 07:32 |

| kevin_ | Jordan_U, the chatting program is called SecondLife | 08:31 |

| Jordan_U | kevin_: You should try to find a .deb, that way it will stay automatically updated and tracked by the package manager | 08:31 |
|---|
| b4b3 | sure | 08:31 |
|---|
| kevin_ | Jordan_U, as it turns out -- the program is entirely out of box -- in that no install is required. | 08:31 |

| Jordan_U | kevin_: I am pretty sure there is a .deb for second life available, and I wouldn't call it a chatting program :) | 08:32 |

| danbh_intrepid | os2mac: well, you can always try dselect-upgrade But, if you are running -proposed, or intrepid, you may not want to force the install of the package. Sometimes it depends on other packages updating themselves | 09:09 |
|---|
| Guest59408 | couldn't find package mplayer | 09:09 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Hmm, It's in my synaptic... :/ | 09:10 |

| sfer3 | What is the problem with it? | 09:18 |
|---|
| jokibroki | http://www.hellanzb.com/trac/ | 09:18 |
|---|
| sfer3 | jokibroki: Can you just do this to install it? Open Terminal, then type "sudo apt-get install hellanzb" | 09:18 |
|---|
| sfer3 | It's in the repos | 09:18 |
|---|
| A[D]minS | sfer3, i have no GUI | 09:18 |

| sfer3 | Aah, okay | 09:19 |

| jokibroki | ok, did that | 09:19 |
|---|
| jokibroki | and where do i find it now | 09:19 |
|---|
| jokibroki | to open it | 09:19 |
|---|
| sfer3 | It should be in one of the menus.... | 09:19 |
|---|
| sfer3 | Uuhhh... | 09:19 |
|---|
| jokibroki | thats the thing | 09:20 |
|---|
| jokibroki | looked at all application menus | 09:20 |
|---|
| orifice | I've seen some terminals in text mode (i.e. ctr-alt-F1) that have been customized with a background image and different text colors | 09:20 |
|---|
| jokibroki | and no hellanzb | 09:20 |
|---|
| orifice | where can I set those options ? | 09:20 |

| orifice | Err grabit with wine | 09:22 |
|---|
| jokibroki | grabit can be used on ubuntu hardy 8.04 | 09:22 |
|---|
| jokibroki | ? | 09:22 |
|---|
| bakarat | it states in processes that vmware is taking up like 1.5G of ram, but in the resources tab it says that it is using 400 meg | 09:22 |

| locke | man the spawn soundtrack is so awesome | 09:34 |

|---|
| Xeppo | ah. | 09:39 |
|---|
| locke | in fact, i've installed it on macs with apple hardware that were suppoesed to be falwless because the OS was made by the same company as the hardware, and it took like 45 mins to install OSX correctly and had to install one driver off the net afterwards, but I installe dubuntu on the same hardware with the disc in like 15-17 mins with full hardawre support and didnt have to install any updates and it worked perfectly | 09:40 |
|---|
| Xeppo | I was looking through the hoops you had to jump through to get linux working on the macbok | 09:40 |

| centyx | miccantino: just keep apt-get dist-upgrade'ing | 10:00 |

|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: when you boot the cd, choose the alternative to check the disc. There is a built in function for it. It might take a little while but then atleast you'll know that the disc is 100 % ok and can look for other problems | 10:29 |

| Pizarro | notwist, I already did that, and the same message, I am going to burn it again | 10:29 |
|---|
| DannyKing | I mean my X display logs on my system :) | 10:30 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: you got an error message while checking the disc? That pretty much settles it. Try burning it at a lower speed | 10:30 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | DannyKing: /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 10:30 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: lower speed takes more time but it lowers the risk of data corruption | 10:30 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | DannyKing: also try dmesg | tail | 10:30 |
|---|
| DannyKing | thanks :) | 10:30 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, yes, I get the same messasge trying to check it, I am burning another new one | 10:30 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: if the other one fails as well you probably need to look for a reason on the computer you're burning on. Maybe bad type of CD-Rs or too high speed, etc. | 10:31 |

| MaxJay | erUSUL, my computer does not have anything to open, the card is plugged in on a extensiocard on my motherboard. | 10:33 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: probably not in your case. but sometimes brands of burners work bad with certain brands of CDs | 10:33 |
|---|
| MaxJay | brb.. it can be bios.. | 10:34 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, the recorder I am using is a Lightscribe one (DVD/CD, etc..) | 10:34 |
|---|
| erUSUL | MaxJay: then check there. the card does not show on lspci that means that the problem is phisical there is no conection | 10:34 |

|---|
| nandemonai | No, Hardy. | 10:35 |

| notwist | ganesh: did you change any configuration? | 10:35 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, once ubuntu server is installed, how stable is it? I mean, am I goint to get some weird surpraises like this in the future?? | 10:35 |
|---|
| notwist | ganesh: install any new packages? | 10:35 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | nandemonai: well if the repos are offering it then i'd take it, you should run updae-manager with gksu too | 10:35 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: I'm running it on my router box right now and it's been running for 20 days atleast :P | 10:36 |
|---|

|---|
| nandemonai | (I am testing under vmware though but I'm talking about my hardy desktop) | 10:36 |
|---|
| mgolisch | thats why | 10:36 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, I am asking because I spent 2 days trying to install this without success, and it is not the first time I installa Linux | 10:36 |
|---|
| nandemonai | Ohh right. | 10:36 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: one great tip is to install the package called "ebox", that helped me a lot. It's a web interface that lets you configure the server with network sharing and stuff | 10:36 |
|---|
| ganesh | notwist: dont remember...how can i check which is the last installed package? | 10:36 |

| Pizarro | notwist, OK, I was thinking about installing somethign to let me control the server from other network computer, like VNC, etc.. taht might work | 10:37 |
|---|
| notwist | ActionParsnip: I heard webmin was insecure | 10:37 |
|---|
| erUSUL | !webmin | notwist | 10:37 |
|---|
| ubottu | notwist: 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. | 10:37 |
|---|
| ganesh | notwist: how do i do that? | 10:37 |
|---|
| notwist | erUSUL: yeah, what about it? | 10:37 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | notwist: not sure, i just know of it. I just use ssh :) | 10:38 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, ok a new CD ready!, I am going to tray again the isntallation | 10:38 |
|---|
| notwist | ganesh: if you go into a command prompt like shift+F1 or something, you can apt-get remove the gnome-desktop package and then install it again | 10:38 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: you should use SSH for text based remote admin and ebox for the network config (or just iptables if you're good at it, which im not) | 10:38 |
|---|
| notwist | ActionParsnip: ebox saved my day, i tried to get my computer up as a router for an entire day and with ebox it just worked | 10:39 |
|---|
| notwist | ActionParsnip: I wanted to kill myself over all the iptables documentation | 10:39 |

| Pizarro | notwist, now it didn't hang after selecting the isntallation language, but when the "Choose language" text windows appear....I give up | 10:40 |
|---|
| notwist | ganesh: sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop and then replace "remove" with "install" | 10:40 |
|---|
| erUSUL | notwist: iptables is to low level for most uses... just use something like shorewall; firehol or other firewall script | 10:40 |

| === Liubing is now known as Sipingal |

| notwist | erUSUL: firewall is not only for port blocking but also for forwarding (ie routing) right? | 10:40 |
|---|
| ganesh | notwist: E: Couldn't find package gnome-desktop | 10:41 |
|---|
| erUSUL | notwist: yep firehol and dhorewall do all that stuff (or a firewall distribution like ipcop or zeroshell) | 10:41 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, yes, the same issue, same message, and hangs again | 10:41 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: when you boot there is an option to check the CD, that hangs it? | 10:41 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, yes | 10:42 |
|---|
| freaky[t] | ah now it seems like i got a huge lag | 10:42 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip | ganesh: try tab completing the package name | 10:42 |
|---|
| Pizarro | notwist, if the issue was in the cd, the cd-reader should be working, however it's off, no light | 10:42 |
|---|
| notwist | Pizarro: maybe its broken? Not impossible even if its new | 10:42 |
|---|
