|---|---|---|
| jimv2000 | it's a cache file, not ram | 00:00 |
| unop | ReadyBoost? isn't that something off of vista? | 00:00 |
| jimv2000 | it could be as big as it wants | 00:00 |
| aldaek | Yes, | 00:00 |
| erUSUL | arooni-pocketpc: so depending on conf you may be able to use 3.2 or 3.6 GB or whatever | 00:00 |
| aldaek | In fact, thats the mode I'm mentioning. | 00:00 |
| chubs | This has turned into a convoluted conversation of misinformation | 00:00 |

| roukoun | i have a mounted hard drive nad it doesnt appears in /media, so what file i have to change to make it appears there and why? | 00:00 |
| unop | aldaek, depends on what you mean by "flash memory" there | 00:00 |
| chubs | aldaek, not really, just everyone seems to be confused about it | 00:01 |
| Phreaks | hey | 00:01 |
| Phreaks | pff | 00:01 |

| Phreaks | i have compact flash , when i try to mount it says bad superblock of filesystem . its file system JFS , any ideas ;) | 00:01 |
| aldaek | readyboost for vista counts against that 4 GB. MS and Dell answer to lack of full 4 GB system memory issue when 4 GB is in the system. | 00:01 |

| Scunizi | acirhax: not sure where you're going with this.. but what I've seen is that most on Linux are trying to do many more things than the average Win user, thus more topics of conversation. | 00:11 |

| Phreaks | erUSUL, aa | 00:21 |
| Aval0n | so if sshd is not configured for tcpwrappers would I be getting the symptoms I am now? | 00:21 |
| mylogic | what's the compiz setting called that allows you to view all the current windows at once (not desktops) similar to os x's feature? | 00:21 |
| erUSUL | Phreaks: the problem is not bs but a corrupted superblock afaik | 00:21 |
| bobertdos | Boxici: sudo -i or sudo -s is better to use if you insist on having a constant root mode. | 00:21 |
| Scunizi | mylogic: expose? | 00:21 |
| Phreaks | erUSUL, aha | 00:21 |
| erUSUL | Phreaks: good luck. | 00:22 |
| Cheek1 | chuy_max: soi dont need to install envyng or anything just clicking the restricted drivers and it should work? | 00:22 |
| Phreaks | erUSUL, so how can i recover the superblock from dd image ?? | 00:22 |
| mylogic | Scunizi: I'm looking at expose, but the only options I see are letting me see all the desktops at once | 00:22 |
| daklan | Aval0n: i don't know why it would matter if sshd is not configured with tcp wrappers | 00:22 |
| fbc | Is there any way to center the wallpaper on screen 0? Instead of sharing it with screen 1? I'm using twinview. | 00:22 |
| bobertdos | Boxici: but for the record, we don't recommend using the root login in ANY form :p | 00:22 |
| Murlis | so the idea is to join the first partition sda1 which is boot with sda2, any ideas is that possible? | 00:22 |
| chuy_max | Cheek1, it should | 00:22 |
| AbstractScrollLo | Huh, nice, connecting to windows shares is just plain not working trough gnome file manager | 00:22 |
| Aval0n | hmm | 00:22 |
| jorrit | chuy_max, I'll paste it on the pastebin, just a sec. | 00:22 |
| Boxici | bobertdos: when i try to type sudo su now it gives me " sudo nautilus " | 00:22 |
| AbstractScrollLo | But it works trough bash | 00:22 |
| erUSUL | Phreaks: i really dunno. you should try askin on the jfs mailing list https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jfs-discussion | 00:22 |
| AbstractScrollLo | Bullshit | 00:22 |
| daklan | Aval0n: i suppose you can try eliminating that problem first | 00:22 |
| eido | what is the easiest way to remove a ubuntu install on a dual boot system? | 00:22 |
| daklan | Aval0n: and try something else if it still fails | 00:23 |
| Scunizi | mylogic: "super e" in expose should show all open windows on one desktop | 00:23 |
| Cheek1 | chuy_max: ok ..i did it and its installing the hardware ..iis that all you have to do ? | 00:23 |
| chuy_max | eido, reformat the partition, or erase it and expand your windows partition | 00:23 |
| bobertdos | Boxici: If you want root access to Nautilius, it is best to use: gksudo nautilus | 00:23 |
| chuy_max | Cheek1, run glxinfo | grep irect | 00:24 |
| AbstractScrollLo | eido you just delete ubuntu portion from windows diskmgmt.msc and than you boot with recovery cd and run fixmbr | 00:24 |
| chuy_max | Cheek1, if you have something like direct rendering = yes, you are ok | 00:24 |

| Scunizi | Who was asking about alias' earlier? I have a link for you http://www.linux.com/feature/147568 | 00:28 |
| Aval0n | but the hostname DOES resolve | 00:28 |
| Aval0n | via ping | 00:28 |
| djhash | Murlis: try gparted | 00:28 |
| Aval0n | does hosts.allow not support hostnames?! | 00:29 |

| daklan | Aval0n: try nslookup myhosts.com and see if it resolves | 00:29 |
| eido | chubs: or is there a way I can change the ubuntueee install to include the standard sources that ubuntu uses for example I couldn't install xchat synaptic does not know of this app in ubuntueee | 00:29 |
| Aval0n | okay | 00:29 |
| Phreaks | chubs, mount -t jfs /dev/sdb1 /media/flash1 | 00:29 |
| airtonix_ | Aval0n, i think hosts.allow & hosts.deny are read before resolving | 00:29 |
| Murlis | djhash: yeah, gparted allows me to delete the boot partition, the question is what heppens after? ;) | 00:30 |
| Aval0n | daklan: yes it does | 00:30 |
| daklan | Aval0n: and btw, i stand corrected. hosts.allow and .deny only works for tcp-wrapped services | 00:30 |

| jorrit | chuy_max, Whoa, such a lot lines, what sort of lines are you looking for (obviously related to my VIA chipset)? | 00:30 |
| bobertdos | Boxici: Now please, from now on, use sudo when you need admin privileges in the terminal and gksudo when you need it with graphical applications. | 00:30 |

| Cheeky | chuy_max: no wat i mean is that .. the icon .. is still present ... the one that mentions about the restricted drivers .. | 00:37 |
| nachomania | Does anyone here have a Toshiba L300? | 00:37 |
| daklan | Aval0n: my suggestion is to hard-code the domain name into your hosts file, and allow (or block) through hosts.allow | 00:38 |
| Boxici | bobertdos: i installed apache2 server and php and all the posible functions i think, i don't know if i did it in the right way but i will find out when i get a error or two :) | 00:38 |
| djhash | !ask | nachomania | 00:38 |
| ubottu | nachomania: 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. :-) | 00:38 |
| ^Phantom^ | i'll say right now, though, that win98 is a complete nightmare on vbox | 00:38 |
| daklan | Aval0n: or you can hardcode the ip into hosts.allow | 00:38 |
| ^Phantom^ | it makes ubuntu shine | 00:38 |
| Aval0n | but then I have the problem of the dynamic ips | 00:38 |
| jorrit | RomanaMentalis, I have some general knowledge about SSL-certificates, please ask. | 00:38 |
| daklan | Aval0n: sorry, i forgot the dynamic IP :) | 00:38 |

| jorrit | RomanaMentalis, You know that such a certificate wil only work for one dhostname, no aliases? | 00:39 |

| RomanaMentalis | jorrit - so if I have a virtual host, will it work for that site? | 00:40 |
| tech_ | \#ubuntu-es | 00:40 |
| chubs | eido, you can go to synaptic and set the repositories to the main ubuntu ones. there may be conflicting packages though, so i'd disable them before running an apt-get update | 00:41 |
| droopsta915 | So its just a popup wanting me to get the virus remover, thats what i thought. | 00:41 |
| jorrit | RomanaMentalis, it also depends if you still use the same webserver software, like Apache. Virtual hosts should not be a problem here, as long as there is only one hostname bonded to one IP-address | 00:41 |

| Murlis | djhash: format as ext3? | 00:53 |
| chubs | Phreaks, i don't use ndiswrapper | 00:53 |
| Scunizi | Murlis: djhash then what I'd suggest is just leave it alone until you can get/borrow an external HD or another internal temporarily.. copy /home to it/them .. then reformat the entire drive and create 3 partitions 8-12 gigs for / .. 1 gig for /swap and the rest /home.. then copy everything from the old /home back to the new location. | 00:53 |

| chubs | Phreaks, not sure then. sorry, as i said I don't use ndiswrapper | 00:54 |
| Scunizi | Murlis: djhash make them all primary partitions .. nothing extended.. it's not necessary unless you need more than 4 partitions on the drive. | 00:54 |

You'd tell your isp to forward the domain name to the one given you by dydns.com and it will direct everything to your computer on your lan.. you also have to set port forwarding on your router to something other than port 80 | 01:02 |
| ^Phantom^ | i need to what the who? | 01:02 |
| Boxici | Scunizi: i have a static ip and when i put my ip in the browser the webserver works, but i want to use my domain not my ip... | 01:03 |

| J-n | ^Phantom^: The path you are telling ubuntu to mount the share folder, needs to exist. | 01:03 |
| jorrit | Boxici: In order to setup your domain, you need to have a webserver, like Apache. Do you have a working Apache yet? Can you access the Apache server locally? | 01:03 |
| ^Phantom^ | fuck the shared folder, i'll use dvds | 01:03 |
| eido | chubs: yes | 01:03 |
| Scunizi | Boxici: your static ip is probably 192.xxx.xxx.x or something like that.. that's not the ip I was referring to. That's an internal (lan) ip. The one assigned to you by your isp is recognized by your router only. | 01:04 |

| jorrit | Boxici: try www.whatismyip.com to get your current WAN (external) IP | 01:05 |
| kevinO | lol | 01:05 |
| Scunizi | jorrit: Boxici does have a working apache2 but wants to assign his domain to it.. I just assumed he's running this out of his house which typically has a dynamic IP assigned by the isp | 01:05 |

| jorrit | DasEi, I know that there is sort of a solution for it, but it still complicates things. | 01:08 |
| Boxici | jorrit: no it is with 86 | 01:08 |

| J-n | try /home/username/desktop/shared | 01:11 |

| jorrit | Boxici, you can define a VHost within Apache to a directory that represents the root of your website, for instance the directory /var/www/vhosts/boxici.ro | 01:11 |
| Boxici | jorrit: so how can i do that? | 01:12 |
| ^Phantom^ | k got the mount part figured out | 01:13 |
| jorrit | Boxici, you can create a httpdocs directory there to represent www.boxici.ro and possibly a httpsdocs directory for your SSL-secured content. | 01:13 |

| dmoerner | Raylz, why? because mozilla makes you agree to a one-time license agreement when you first start firefox 3.0.2 which was deemed "un-ubuntu" | 01:34 |
| Remorse_ | I'll think about it | 01:34 |
| MERLiiN | dunno | 01:34 |
| zeroshade | what happens in the network manager? it thinks you're still connected? | 01:34 |
| jorrit | Boxici, try this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47627/ | 01:34 |
| Boxici | jorrit: so there is nothing i can do to make this work right? | 01:34 |
| airtonix | dewente, yes....the ip address you saw is the ip of your router as seen from the internet..so it is what external people will see you as...I think you need to read up on how network-address-translation works if you wnat to understand what is going on in your network | 01:34 |
| Boxici | jorrit: i am talking about the domain and webserver now... | 01:35 |
| Raylz | dmoerner: the EULA? whats so particulary bad about it? | 01:35 |
| DasEi | slew: sudo mkdir /mnt/vistapc | 01:35 |
| farva | zeroshade ok got it | 01:35 |
| jorrit | Boxici: Did you look at my suggestions for DNS records? | 01:35 |
| nkei0 | Raylz: It's a EULA, open source software shouldn't have EULA's normally. | 01:35 |
| chubs | Raylz, that there is one | 01:35 |
| airtonix | dewente, but i dont even know what your original problem is or what your trying to achieve | 01:35 |
| slew | DasEi, done | 01:35 |
| Boxici | jorrit: and what can i do with that? | 01:35 |

| Boxici | jorrit: i am looking at it right now but i don't know what to do with that info!!! | 01:36 |

| airtonix | dewente, have you setup samba on your ubuntu machine and have you opened the ports for samba? | 01:36 |

| farva | use sudo | 02:10 |
| lana | asterisk | 02:11 |
| smokie | farva, if i use that it will b owned by the user that uses sudo or root, not the test user | 02:11 |
| farva | oh my bad just guessin | 02:11 |
| evilGUI | Yeah I would stay away from the source but you can't get anything new the other way | 02:11 |
| farva | im still real new to this stuff | 02:11 |
| jrib | smokie: where is it trying to install to? What error are you getting? | 02:11 |
| unop | smokie, if you add the user to the admin group, the user can use sudo | 02:11 |

| pianoboy3333 | J-n: I can't find anything help full there, the autodetect thing doesn't do monitor/video driver in hardy | 02:13 |
| zeroshade | farva: if you really don't wanna use sudo you can use sudo su - to be root. but i don't reccomend it | 02:13 |
| unop | smokie, adding the user to the admin group does not give the user any special capabilities, except maybe the ability to use sudo | 02:13 |
| carandraug | C0L7: you have ntfs-3g installed? Could you pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l"? | 02:13 |
| J-n | What video card driver are you using? | 02:13 |
| Denise | omg | 02:13 |
| zeroshade | farva: if you do run "sudo su - " to be root, then make sure you type "exit" before you do other things to log out of root | 02:13 |
| jrib | smokie: and my other question? | 02:13 |
| unop | smokie, you could circumvent the admin group and make an entry for the user in /etc/sudoers - but that's as good as adding the user to the admin group | 02:14 |

| knoppix_ | TheSheep, this is nubuntu, i was here earlier talking to you about this issue. Changing to a usb keyboard helped somewhat on this machine, but still can't boot xubuntu or ubuntu live cd for some reason. i put this knoppix live disk on and i wonder if anyone could help me retrieve my friends windows files using knoppix. the hard drive partition that contains the files is appearing on this desktop, but i'm kind of a newb. to retrieve and copy the file | 02:17 |
| knoppix_ | s, i need to 'mount' that partition, right?? could anyone help me walk through this? | 02:17 |
| pianoboy3333 | J-n: I've got a nvidia GT 7600, and right now I have the nvidia-glx-new package installed | 02:18 |

| ldiamond_ | I cant make the "pound" sign... | 02:18 |
| ldiamond_ | or "pond" | 02:19 |
| qmemo | knoppix_, you say it appears on your Desktop an Icon of The Partition ? | 02:19 |
| ldiamond_ | watever, that number sign. | 02:19 |
| DasEi | knoppix_: do you have an external drive to backup to ? | 02:19 |
| vinicius | airtonix: good! but i found a topic on ubuntuforums at least to turn it back into the gnomes default | 02:19 |
| ldiamond_ | My keyboard layout is so messed up, its not even a real keyboard layout | 02:19 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: check: glxinfo |grep rendering | 02:19 |
| airtonix | vinicius, same thing i think then | 02:19 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: a bunch of Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".\ | 02:19 |
| J-n | pianoboy3333: then you should be good to do the 2nd part in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto to manually set it, if you can't get it to set right with the gui tools i guess. | 02:19 |
| DasEi | ldiamond_:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a | 02:20 |
| knoppix_ | so, actually i've tryed right clicking to mount the partition, and it says 'mount failed, maybe another app is accessing the filesystem' but i'm not running anything else, just the knoppix live. does anyone know of another way in to save these files? | 02:20 |
| MasterShrek | i shoudl know this but where would a log be located that shows all my services starting? | 02:20 |
| carandraug | C0L7: which one can't you mount? Have you tried mounting sda5? | 02:20 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: J-n: brb, trying something | 02:20 |

| Syco54645_AAO | hello, something that i have put into startup programs is not starting when gnome starts. is there any way to get the error that is produced? i tried making a bash script that would run it and dump the error to a file, but that didnt work | 02:20 |
| vinicius | airtonix: much better than the ugly ubuntu one at least... that was freaking me out for 3 years.... | 02:20 |

| qmemo | or do dmesg | more to see what's the name of your harddrive | 02:22 |
| airtonix | jyotsna, ctrl + alt + drag left mouse button on desktop | 02:22 |
| carandraug | jyotsna: you can configure that shortuct. Look under the menu I told you to install. It's there | 02:22 |
| qmemo | then as root or just use sudo mount /dev/sda1 or hda1 or what ever that would be to /mnt/usbstick or your choosen dir | 02:22 |
| airtonix | jyotsna, or ctrl + alt + left/right arrow keys...if you dont have the cube plugin turned on you need to do so with the ccsm | 02:22 |

| justizin | i'm trying to create a liveusb installer from within parallels in macosx, anyone have experience? the program was running but then just decided there were no usb devices attached after some time.. | 02:24 |
| pianoboy3333 | J-n: iFvwm: do either of you know how to use the GUI that reconfigures X? | 02:24 |
| qmemo | sweet then (sudo root mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/usb or like I said) | 02:24 |
| airtonix | Rev, forensically the safest way would be to install 1.5 within a virtual machine | 02:24 |
| justizin | it was a lot of pain to install new packages into the livecd environment so rather seek someone else w/ experience than try to repro | 02:24 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: you cannot entre X? | 02:24 |
| Rev | airtonix, i dont have a virtual machine, and i dont intent to install one. does that mean its over for me? | 02:24 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: no I can, I'm on the desktop right now | 02:25 |
| justizin | my mac's burner is not working, it's quite old, and not under warranty, and i want to install into a bootcamp partition from the usb stick.. | 02:25 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: so you need 3D? | 02:25 |
| iFvwm | need opengl? | 02:25 |
| airtonix | Rev, no. just your going to have to be careful. and spend some time scouring the ubuntuforums | 02:25 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: I'm just stuck in 800x600 and I want to make my resolution 1280x1024, getting 3D would be nice, but resolution first | 02:25 |

| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: nvidia-settings says run nvidia-xconfig | 02:45 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | hey all, trying to connect to my VNC setup on my ubuntu machine at home, but it won't let me in... I've tried TightVNC, and RealVNC, both mention something about security types... anybody know of a vnc program that works for connecting to ubuntu's supplied vnc server? | 02:45 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: ? so strange? | 02:45 |
| genius | pibe86: no, alt cd have better text gui for advanced users. but imho it will not help to avoid this problems. | 02:45 |
| iFvwm | not another indicate? | 02:46 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: and dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work, cause md5sum can't find xorg.conf | 02:46 |
| knoppix_ | DasEi, i restarted qparted and now on the left hand panel it is showing /dev/hda and below that /dev/sda ... is the sda the usb flashdrive? | 02:46 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, any reason you cant use ssh x forwarding? | 02:46 |
| pianoboy3333 | haha | 02:46 |
| DasEi | harley : what about : sudo apt-get intstall /home/harley/Desktop/neroblabla.deb ? | 02:46 |
| pianoboy3333 | crap | 02:46 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: now your status is: all ok but 3D? right? | 02:46 |
| pibe86 | genius: i dunno, i will tried this, if it works i ll be happy xD | 02:46 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: yea | 02:46 |
| RediXe_ | Aaron_Mibbit: I COULD get and burn the CD but would be a little bit of a pain. | 02:46 |
| DasEi | knoppix_:yes, thats fine so far, is the ntfs seen by qtparted ? | 02:46 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | airtonix: it's behind a firewall and I don't have access to it at the moment, though I could do that | 02:46 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, there is a piece of software for windows called xMing, i was using it on XP to have remote x forwarding from windows to a gnome desktop | 02:46 |
| thinkfast | hey guys im having problems finding the "erase entire disc" option in the installation | 02:47 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: so just add some parameter lines into xorg.conf. | 02:47 |
| thinkfast | ive got fedora installed and i just want to wipe it off | 02:47 |
| iFvwm | as i paste | 02:47 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | RediXe_: a little pain now can save a lot later on, trust me | 02:47 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: I don't have an xorg.conf right now | 02:47 |
| pianoboy3333 | I don't know how I can even be on my desktop | 02:47 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | airtonix: and that would go over the internet, not just on a LAN? | 02:47 |
| DasEi | pianoboy3333:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, you can manually generate an xorg (empty) before | 02:47 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, so i could use putty, setup x forwarding and loginto my ubuntu machine, then i could run anything that would normally require a x server, which xMing handles since it is an x server for windows | 02:47 |
| RediXe_ | Aaron_Mibbit: Well, I have the CD but it's an hour drive 1 way away from me so .... was hoping to avoid that much trouble. | 02:48 |
| knoppix_ | DasEi, it seems to be, in the main panel to the right? has these partitions listed: first is /dev/hda1 type fat16, then /dev/hda2 type ntfs status active | 02:48 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, it's connection abilities are using ssh... so anything you can setup ssh to connect to | 02:48 |
| autumn | so I'm fighting with a driver for a GE (sonix) Minicam Pro webcam (SN9C103 and ov7630 chipset) | 02:48 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: so as DasEi said, you try it | 02:48 |
| harley | DasEi it say couldnt find package i renamed it to 123.deb to reduce all the typeing.. :-( | 02:48 |
| autumn | and I've downloaded a "recent" release driver for it | 02:48 |
| autumn | that is binary | 02:48 |
| autumn | and should load | 02:48 |
| pianoboy3333 | oh now there's one | 02:48 |
| pianoboy3333 | ok | 02:48 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, it was the easiest way for me to get gedit running on windows | 02:48 |
| DasEi | knoppix_:yes, thats fine , close qtparted, open a terminal... | 02:48 |
| iFvwm | right | 02:49 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: ok now I did the reconfigure, what's next | 02:49 |
| autumn | but I get an error: dependency is not satisfiable: linix-image-generic | 02:49 |
| autumn | which I have | 02:49 |
| thinkfast | can anyone point me in the right direction? | 02:49 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, this was when i was using dapper though | 02:49 |
| PDF_q | it also gives me this message [cook @ 0xde0c00]MC_COOK not supported! | 02:49 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | airtonix: ah, i get you now, ssh into the box, forward the X11 ports | 02:49 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, ja | 02:49 |
| PDF_q | its weird | 02:49 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: new xorg.conf here? | 02:49 |
| knoppix_ | DasEi, does it have to close or can i leave it open to refer to? | 02:49 |
| PDF_q | I can run it directly but not through a program | 02:49 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | airtonix: cool, I'll try it when i get home | 02:49 |
| DasEi | harley: cd to Desktop then, first, try ls to see if it's there | 02:49 |
| sjovan | what is the command for findeing out the routers ip? you know... gateway. don't you have something like ipconfig in linux? | 02:49 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, better peformance than vnc | 02:49 |
| DasEi | knoppix_:if you got enough ram... | 02:49 |
| PDF_q | ifconfig | 02:50 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47642/ | 02:50 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | airtonix: would xMing support xdm? | 02:50 |
| Phreaks | hey | 02:50 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, but im not sure about sessions...you could incorporate the use of 'screen' in there somehwere | 02:50 |
| knoppix_ | DasEi, closed it :) | 02:50 |
| sjovan | PDF_q: ifconfig doesn't give me the information i need | 02:50 |
| ldiamond_ | Wow, how long is sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a supposed to take...? | 02:50 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, i dont know what xdm is | 02:50 |
| knoppix_ | DasEi, looking for a terminal, gimme second | 02:50 |
| ldiamond_ | still havent fixed my keyboard | 02:50 |
| harley | DasEi i under stood cd to destop then what | 02:50 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, is it like gdm? | 02:50 |
| harley | DasEi and thanks your vert very very helpfule | 02:51 |
| chubs | Aaron_Mibbit, I don't see why not | 02:51 |
| DasEi | harley : ls (l=L) | 02:51 |
| Denise | ok | 02:51 |
| Aaron_Mibbit | airtonix: it is a blanket term for gdm and kdm for gnome and kde | 02:51 |
| Denise | night roomies | 02:51 |
| DasEi | harley : see 123.deb ? | 02:51 |
| harley | ya | 02:51 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, the act of logging in via ssh does the same thing that you would do via gdm/kdm/xdm | 02:51 |
| St0rmcr0w | sjovan: try 'route' | 02:51 |
| iFvwm | pianoboy3333: so simple one? now lauch nvidia-settings | 02:51 |
| DasEi | harley : sudo apt-get install 123.deb | 02:51 |
| St0rmcr0w | sjovan: or 'netstat -r' | 02:52 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: it says run nvidia-xconfig | 02:52 |
| airtonix | Aaron_Mibbit, once you are at the remote servers prompt, you just run stuff like : # gedit or # nautilus --no-desktop | 02:52 |
| iFvwm | .. | 02:52 |
| pianoboy3333 | iFvwm: should I do that? | 02:52 |
| iFvwm | just wait | 02:52 |

| knoppix_ | DasEi, Konsole ok? | 02:52 |
| sjovan | St0rmcr0w: thanx, netstat -r did the trick | 02:52 |

| danopia`` | hi Styles | 03:03 |
| elexodus | MyNameIsZohan: what is it that you want it to do? | 03:04 |
| MyNameIsZohan | i want to add the system preferences and system adminstration to cairo dock | 03:04 |
| rabinito | elexodus, no.. only my webcam... It apparently works, but no image.. all black | 03:04 |
| MyNameIsZohan | since i have no more panel | 03:04 |
| elexodus | MyNameIsZohan: oh, I read that wrong. I thought you said "cairo clock" | 03:04 |
| danbh_intrepid | elexodus: have you checked the link that ubottu gave you? | 03:05 |
| Denise | cairo no good | 03:06 |
| elexodus | danbh_intrepid: Yes, I've gone through it times and times before. I have a melfunction in my smb.conf that needs to be addressed. Never had this problem before with Vista... | 03:06 |
| Denise | only extra situations | 03:06 |
| rabinito | danbh_intrepid, I tried.. it "works" with v4l... but the captured image is all black | 03:06 |
| MyNameIsZohan | cairo no good? | 03:06 |
| MyNameIsZohan | works well for me | 03:06 |
| elexodus | rabinito: ctrl+Alt+Backspace. Save your work before you do it. See if that helps. | 03:06 |
| elexodus | I like cairo too. | 03:07 |
| rabinito | elexodus, no.. never worked in ubuntu... | 03:07 |
| MyNameIsZohan | does work | 03:07 |
| MyNameIsZohan | running it right now | 03:07 |
| Denise | okay then | 03:07 |
| elexodus | rabinito: have you restarted since making changes to the drivers/settings? | 03:07 |

| rabinito | elexodus, thank! I will check on that | 03:16 |
| Boxici | elexodus: i have a domain name and i don't know how to make it work with my apache2 server... | 03:17 |
| Denise | do a purge genius | 03:17 |
| Denise | it is out anyway | 03:17 |
| elexodus | Boxici: I've tried an apache2 server before, and I can assure you that I'm not the right guy to be asking. I gave up. Sorry | 03:18 |

| elexodus | Need help with Samba. My Vista Box can see my Ubuntu box, but Samba won't authenticate the login. I am using username "HappyTrees/elexodus" as my username (Server/Uname), and of course the password I set up using 'smbpasswd'. Any ideas? | 03:18 |
| airtonix | Boxici, if you apache server is connecting to the internet via router that doesnt have static ip, then you need to investigate the use of dyndns | 03:18 |
| Denise | I have an apache 2 un deletable | 03:18 |
| favro | is there a fuzzy clock in gnome yet? | 03:18 |
| genius | Denise: there is nothing to purge :) package is unknown | 03:18 |
| Boxici | airtonix: but my ip is static | 03:18 |
| elexodus | favro: cairo clock? | 03:19 |
| bex_ | elexodus: your forward slash should be a backslash | 03:19 |
| Denise | how come i cant remove apache2 | 03:19 |
| airtonix | then you need to discuss with your domain name provider on how to point the domain name to your ip | 03:19 |
| danbh_intrepid | Denise: whats the error? | 03:19 |
| elexodus | bex_: you know what I mean. Sorry, I'm tired. | 03:19 |
| Denise | I deleted it all | 03:19 |
| favro | elexodus: does that use words for the time instead of numbers? | 03:19 |
| Denise | and it is still running on my top | 03:19 |
| airtonix | Boxici, usually this can be done via a web interface provided by the domain name providor | 03:19 |
| Denise | on my screen | 03:20 |
| bex_ | elexodus: sorry mate no worries.. are you logging on at the ubuntu boxes text console, gdm, or ssh from vista. | 03:20 |
| danbh_intrepid | Denise: reboot? | 03:20 |
| bex_ | ? | 03:20 |
| Denise | wait | 03:20 |
| elexodus | favro: I think there may be an option, but it's more like the clock you see docked on the Vista desktop. | 03:20 |
| Boxici | airtonix: i know because i have access to that page, but when i try to change the old nameservers with my ip address it tell's me that the name of the nameservers are incorrect | 03:20 |
| favro | elexodus: heh never seen vista... thnx tho :) | 03:20 |
| elexodus | bex_: My Ubuntu box is the central backup point. I have a Lenovo Vista partition that I want to connect into my Ubuntu box. | 03:21 |

| Denise | I dont control my root | 03:22 |
| Denise | but how come I cant remove it? | 03:22 |
| airtonix | Denise, then your out of luck till the person who does can recitfy the problem | 03:22 |
| Boxici | airtonix: i know because i have access to that page, but when i try to change the old nameservers with my ip address it tell's me that the name of the nameservers are incorrect | 03:22 |

| === Tulimaq__ is now known as Tulimaq | ||

| desaints | any reason why desktop is only letting me run at 51hz instead of 61hz at any resolution (running 1400x1050 atm) | 03:33 |
| desaints | using nvidia drivers | 03:33 |
| elexodus | desaints: are your drivers restricted or otherwise blacklisted? | 03:34 |
| danbh_intrepid | desaints: its a bug in the nvidia drivers related to twinview | 03:34 |
| Boxici | airtonix: i think that i can make this work... well i am new but i want to learn more... :) | 03:34 |
| desaints | im using the restricted nvidia drivers | 03:34 |
| Boxici | airtonix: i think that i must edit the files from bind and create some nameservers for my apache2 hosting, after that just update the nameservers from my domain | 03:35 |
| airtonix | Boxici, have you ever use dyndns.org before? | 03:35 |
| elexodus | desaints: because iNvidia resticts usage of the driver, sometimes the developement on the opensource end is well, "restricted." | 03:35 |
| Boxici | airtonix: no what's with that? | 03:35 |
| desaints | elexodus: so i can only get 51hz due to restrictions? | 03:35 |
| crd1b | desaints: it's not really 51Hz | 03:36 |
| crd1b | it just _reports_ 51Hz, which may confuse apps that try to sync to the refresh rate | 03:36 |
| Scunizi | Boxici: airtonix I mentioned that 2 hours ago... :( | 03:36 |
| airtonix | Boxici, it's for people that are behind adsl connections which are not having static ip addresses. you use a program on your server called ddclient which 'pings' the dyndns server with your username and password, in return dyndns updates your record with the ip address it detects via the pings | 03:36 |
| desaints | how do i find my true rf rate? | 03:37 |
| elexodus | Need help with Samba. My Vista Box can see my Ubuntu box, but Samba won't authenticate the login. I am using username "HappyTrees/elexodus" as my username (Server/Uname), and of course the password I set up using 'smbpasswd'. Any ideas? | 03:37 |

| Boxici | Scunizi: lol still here huh | 03:38 |
| pibe86 | elexodus: i dont know any thing about samba, but ehat do you mean when you say "my ubuntu box" | 03:38 |
| crd1b | desaints: it's a command, you may need to install it | 03:38 |
| Boxici | airtonix: i am not geting alarmed :)) sorry! | 03:38 |
| airtonix | Boxici, have you tried looking on the website of your domain name providor and checking all its help files? | 03:38 |
| pibe86 | elexodus: what* | 03:38 |
| Scunizi | Boxici: just got back from dinner.. if you have static Ip into your router then just contact the folks that sold you the domain name and have them forward it to your ip.. then you're done.. | 03:38 |
| Boxici | airtonix: they are pore in that... | 03:39 |
| airtonix | Boxici, yeah you see the common element there,, in dyndns the server does the ip -> domain name association, in your case its the people running the domain name servers you have to contact | 03:39 |

| Jordan_U | isiah: Just do System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers | 03:50 |
| isiah | Boxici: ubuntu, edubuntu | 03:50 |
| cgentry72 | I just installed kde 4.1 and was wondering if I can use emerald with it because the windows decorations look like windows 3.1 | 03:50 |
| N4cht | I just set up a server running 8.04, enabled port forwarding, etc,etc, and i can resolve/view my site from inside my local network, but no one can see it externally. is there some sort of default firewall in 8.04? | 03:50 |
| carandraug | N4cht: iptables | 03:50 |
| isiah | Jordan_U: ok i did that | 03:51 |
| dunas | So I figured out my X problems, but now, when I go to log in or shut down with the Gnome Panel applet or the option in the menu- Gnome crashes, Metacity crashes, I can't alt-tab I can't do squat except hold in my computer's power button or reset the X server to log out. What gives? :S | 03:51 |
| St0rmcr0w | Ububegin: Then I would suggest 'locate' | 03:51 |
| Boxici | isiah: i find it strange because when i had the ubuntu 7.10 madwifi worked for me, but now when i have ubuntu 8.04 it worked only with ndiswrapper | 03:51 |
| Jordan_U | cgentry72: More likely to get an answer in #kubuntu, though I don't think that the window decorations should look like windows 3.1 | 03:51 |
| N4cht | carandraug, .... a little more verbose? | 03:51 |
| izinucs | N4cht, you might be experiencing the filtering of your isp.. most won't pass port 80 which is the default for Apache.. you'll need to change it to something like 8080 | 03:51 |
| cgentry72 | Jordan_U, they do :( | 03:51 |
| cgentry72 | Jordan_U, sorry how do i change channels here | 03:52 |

| carandraug | !iptables | N4cht | 03:52 |
| ubottu | N4cht: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 03:53 |
| nkei0 | What's a good program to convert large video files? | 03:53 |

| izinucs | crd1b, sorry.. you're right cairo-doc .. my bad | 04:15 |

| hellcattrav | and not the bottom dock itself? | 04:15 |

| airtonix | hellcattrav, if you say the panel is the thing up top with the apple symbol then yes the two are different....when i said panel i was refering to the panel avant craetes....i call it panel because it doesnt extend right across the desktop..it merely sizes itself based on the contents | 04:23 |

| AaronMT | bye | 04:39 |
| daklan | Cheeky: you might want to install the non-free flash plugin, and uninstall or disable other flash plugins | 04:39 |
| vypadkovyy | Jordan_U, does this unmount or does it list all processes using the device? | 04:40 |
| === bknox is now known as bknoxx | ||
| vypadkovyy | Jordan_U, because I saw no output and the problem persists | 04:40 |
| Jordan_U | vypadkovyy: Lists all processes using the device, and kills them if you tell it to | 04:40 |
| Cheeky | daklan: i already installed the ubuntu restricted extra stuff package .. hoping it would work | 04:40 |
| daklan | vypadkovyy: lsof lists open files, you're looking specifically for a process that's still grabbing on a file inside /media | 04:40 |
| daklan | vypadkovyy: are there any other processes in the output? | 04:41 |
| vypadkovyy | daklan, no | 04:41 |
| daklan | Cheeky: i solved my problem with .flv by uninstalling other flash plugins and reinstalling flash-nonfree | 04:41 |
| ^Phantom^ | well, actually the win98 is broken worse | 04:41 |
| daklan | vypadkovyy: paste the output of lsof|grep /media somewhere, so i can take a look | 04:42 |
| Guest55657 | hi | 04:42 |
| airtonix | daklan, vypadkovyy that was my first thought too, use lsof with grep, but i cant even find reference to a text file i have open | 04:42 |
| Jordan_U | vypadkovyy: What error do you get when you try to unmount? | 04:42 |
| vypadkovyy | that's the wierd thing... i'm no longer getting an error | 04:42 |

| vypadkovyy | but the drive is still mounted... if i go to /media/drive and ls | 04:43 |
| Jordan_U | vypadkovyy: Make sure you try "sudo fuser /mountpoint" as well | 04:43 |
| vypadkovyy | I still can access all the files on the drive | 04:43 |
| === AaronMT is now known as Guest46784 | ||
| airtonix | vypadkovyy, you might find that your problem was to do with having no indication of the mounting progress...sometimes it takes awhile for things to come round | 04:43 |

| vypadkovyy | and | 04:44 |
| vypadkovyy | if i go into thunar, and select *eject disk* it states that it's still in use | 04:44 |

| daklan | Cheeky: use Synaptic to uninstall all flash plugins | 04:45 |
| vypadkovyy | it will unmount if i turn off the laptop tho... so i think i will just stick with doing that for now. it's late and I will try to solve this tomorrow | 04:45 |
| vypadkovyy | thanks for everyones help! | 04:45 |
| vypadkovyy | (even if i didn't solve the problem, i still learned some cool terminal commands) | 04:45 |

| izinucs | N4cht, yep.. works.. powered by e104 | 04:47 |
| asmo[B] | !alsa | 04:47 |

| airtonix | daklan, yeah i had a text file in my home folder open with leafpad...but '# lsof | grep filename.txt ' shows no reference to the file, lsof | grep txt | grep $USER doesnt either | 04:49 |
| J-n | ^Phantom^: Honestly, what i would do, if you have a few hours, is download the newest version of ubuntu and make a new virtual drive, there's no real need for you to sweat about upgrading from 7.X to 8.04 if you don't have to... again this is my opinion.. and how i'd solve he problem :) | 04:49 |
| daklan | Cheeky: i can't really walk you through uninstalling all your flash plugins. you can try going to firefox' plugins menu, and disable all flash plugins except the non-free one | 04:49 |
| airtonix | daklan, i need to experiment more with lsof | 04:49 |
| daklan | airtonix: tried grepping for the process itself? | 04:49 |
| Jordan_U | ^Phantom^: You sure that's the link you meant to paste? | 04:49 |
| daklan | airtonix: see if it lists anything | 04:49 |
| ^Phantom^ | no | 04:49 |
| ^Phantom^ | :P | 04:50 |
| airtonix | daklan, oh i can see leafpad there... you think that the textfile is there? but listed with leafpads pid? | 04:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | and i have to type it in | 04:50 |
| Winston_SmithVT | N4cht: Have you checked to make sure it's not your router that's blocking 80? If it uses NAT it won't allow a outside connection to connect to a server behind it | 04:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | can't just copy-paste <_< | 04:50 |
| Jordan_U | ^Phantom^: Why? | 04:50 |
| N4cht | Winston_SmithVT, i set it to forward 80 though.. wouldn't that fix that problem? | 04:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | couldn't get the stupid shared clipboard to work | 04:50 |

| asmo[B] | if I remove PulseAudio should it default to alsa? or will I have to do some playing around? | 04:51 |
| Winston_SmithVT | N4cht: I would think so yes | 04:51 |
| Prose_ | anyone have a ftp client on hand, I need someone to test and see if my ftp works properly | 04:51 |
| daklan | emacs is supposed to have /home/daklan/test.txt open | 04:51 |
| airtonix | daklan, yeah i see leafpad and all its open files but the text file i have open isnt listed | 04:51 |
| droopsta915 | hello, im having a hard time adding an image to the bottom face of my 3d cube, can anyone help me? | 04:51 |
| izinucs | Prose_, sure.. gftp | 04:51 |
| ZMR | Prose_, what's your ip? | 04:51 |
| daklan | airtonix: which is why it's better to grep for the folder in question (sometimes) | 04:52 |
| airtonix | daklan, maybe leafpad doesnt lock the file? which is why it wouldnt show up on lsof? | 04:52 |

| izinucs | viktorkAZ, sudo updatedb then use ... locate <filename> | 05:02 |
| desaints | http://th3r0b.deviantart.com/art/SlicknesS-83117411 | 05:02 |
| speedy | seems like the gateway IP is not detected | 05:02 |
| viktorkAZ | izinucs: huh? | 05:02 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | no font change, no icons, no nothing, i have never been able to get the whole theme for some reason. i won't make a fuss but it is everytheme i try | 05:02 |
| daklan | viktorkAZ: or you can use "find", very powerful. "info find" for more information | 05:03 |
| izinucs | viktorkAZ, locate is a find utility for terminal | 05:03 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, btw all icon packages go in ~/.icons , all theme packages go in ~/.themes and all fonts go in ~/.fonts | 05:03 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, back to checking this out | 05:03 |
| viktorkAZ | daklan: i dont want to use terminal.. i mean if there is a GUI program like | 05:03 |
| viktorkAZ | to find files, etc | 05:03 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, have you got the font he is using in those screenshots? | 05:04 |
| daklan | viktorkAZ: oh, sorry. i won't be able to recommend any gui app | 05:04 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | i don't see it. nothing changed | 05:04 |
| iFvwm | viktorkAZ: gnome-search-tools? | 05:04 |
| daklan | viktorkAZ: you'll do better if you practice using command-line, though | 05:04 |
| Pnux | !fonts | 05:04 |
| ubottu | Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 05:04 |
| J-n | viktorkAZ: if you have ubuntu 8.04 installed if you click places then near the bottom should be a "search for files" button... if you've got a nonstandard install someone else would be best at suggesting | 05:05 |
| Ububegin | I used xchat for my irc... but it doesnt have multi-line input... which irc client has multi -line input | 05:05 |
| Prose_ | how am I supposed to know what app is listening to what port ? | 05:05 |
| iFvwm | Ububegin: opera' irc | 05:05 |
| Pnux | !themes | 05:05 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, ok first thing. | 05:05 |
| ubottu | Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy | 05:05 |
| daklan | Prose_: sudo netstat | 05:05 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: so do i have to pull the theme apart and install all the icons in ~/.icons and ~/.fonts for fonts and so on? | 05:06 |
| Prose_ | daklan: thanks | 05:06 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, that file you downloaded, needs to have its filename changed so you extract it properly | 05:06 |
| viktorkAZ | J-N: IM USING XUBUNTU 8.04 | 05:06 |
| Pnux | !storethemes | 05:06 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about storethemes | 05:06 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: i did. i adusted the commands accordingly | 05:06 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, so, see how it has .gz at the end of its file name? change it so its .tar.gz | 05:06 |
| Pnux | does anybody know in which folder my personalized theme is stored? | 05:06 |
| Ububegin | iFvwm: i mean chatzilla (firefox) also has multi line.. but i was looking for a standalone irc client not linked to the browser | 05:06 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, what that will do is extract it properly when you use nautilus right click : extract-here | 05:07 |
| Jordan_U | ^Phantom^: For converting .daa to iso: http://aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz/daa2iso.zip | 05:07 |
| iFvwm | Ububegin: irssi? | 05:07 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, the folder you get after that, just move to ~/.themes | 05:07 |
| viktorkAZ | izinucs: OMG i type.. locate + a filename and hundreds of lines appear! i dont want that.. i just want to search for the file and open it! | 05:07 |
| viktorkAZ | omg | 05:07 |
| J-n | viktorkAZ: if it's a standard install, then there is a handy search function there already... on your menubar you should have applications places system .. no? click on Places, near the bottom should be "search for files" or similar. | 05:08 |
| geocacher | anyone know any good website that walk you through on building a customized kernel? | 05:08 |
| iFvwm | viktorkAZ: locate support regex | 05:08 |
| Pnux | airtonix: thanks a lot | 05:08 |
| Flannel | !kernel | geocacher | 05:08 |
| iFvwm | viktorkAZ: locate support regex search | 05:08 |
| ubottu | geocacher: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages | 05:08 |
| Prose_ | daklan: so something like netstat | grep vsftpd would tell me where it's listening? | 05:08 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | ok it's there | 05:08 |
| Ububegin | iFvwm: okie.. will chk it out.. | 05:08 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: it's there | 05:08 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, i just did what i described and enabled it in the theme manager...i get glossy black panels on my gnome-panel | 05:08 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, theme-manager is at system->preferences->appearance | 05:09 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: and that is it right? | 05:09 |
| === AaronMT is now known as Guest36200 | ||
| J-n | viktorkAZ: oh didnt see Xbuntu - all caps sometimes throw me off . | 05:09 |
| daklan | Prose_: no, netstat isn't what you need, then | 05:09 |
| modpauper | ls | 05:09 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: got it | 05:09 |
| viktorkAZ | iFvwm: what you mean with locate support regex search? | 05:10 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: i have done that but i have got no farther than you. you got no fonts right? no background like he is describing | 05:10 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, looks like the theme entry in that one describes some icon theme i dont have...check the webpage to grab the one he suggests if you wnat all his theme. | 05:10 |
| viktorkAZ | oh god.. i just want a GUI utility to search my files!!! | 05:10 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: no icons | 05:10 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, that is correct | 05:10 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: ok one sec | 05:10 |
| viktorkAZ | i install tracker search tool.. but its not working.. maybe there is some way to make it work? | 05:10 |
| iFvwm | viktorkAZ: if you want more accurary find. locate -r "someregex", will do it. | 05:10 |
| AaronMT | Airtonix sorry I missed out on your message, how do I force pidgin to use pulseaudio | 05:10 |
| geocacher | thanks flannel | 05:11 |
| iFvwm | viktorkAZ: gnome-search-tools, just try | 05:11 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, dont follow his instructions for installing. | 05:11 |
| cjsstables | hey all. while booting I see a fail message that scrolls to fast for me to read. where do I find this in the log files | 05:11 |
| daklan | Prose_: i take that back... netstat --listen should give you the output you want | 05:11 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: i have the icons | 05:12 |
| iFvwm | beagle and tracker are all large things. bad one. viktorkAZ | 05:12 |
| Prose_ | daklan: thanks again :) | 05:12 |
| airtonix | AaronMT, my suggestion wasnt about forcing pidgn to use pulseaudio, as i assume it already does that...my suggestion was about getting "sound using apps" that make use of oss to operate in parralell. as the alsa driver only allows one apps to access it at a time | 05:12 |
| daklan | Prose_: you're welcome | 05:12 |
| AaronMT | What do you suggest I do. Any sounds played through pidgin and it crashes. | 05:13 |
| airtonix | AaronH, ie...when i ran wow and ventrilio, i had to prefix both with aoss or only the first app gets access to the alsa driver | 05:13 |
| === kiosk is now known as indra_ | ||
| AaronMT | I'm using pulseaudio though not alsa | 05:13 |
| airtonix | AaronMT, not sure sorry, i dont use sounds in pidgn | 05:13 |
| harley | hey guys can ubuntu extracy tar files? | 05:14 |
| maria26 | hi | 05:14 |
| harley | im a noob | 05:14 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: so i extract that to ~/.icons | 05:14 |
| daklan | Prose_: most daemons listen on specific ports, unless you change them. you can grep /etc/services for a particular service and its corresponding standard port | 05:14 |
| izinucs | harley, yep.. right mouse click and "extract" | 05:14 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, yep. | 05:14 |
| harley | izinucs thanks ive use manly vector linux soo im a lil out touch with other linux distros | 05:15 |
| daklan | harley: of course it can. the "tar" command does exactly what you want | 05:15 |
| izinucs | harley, np. | 05:15 |
| Prose_ | daklan: yeah but I made some changes to the weird vsftpd.conf and Im trying to find out if it's listenting to the ports I told it to listen to | 05:15 |
| harley | daklan i know bear im mind ive used windows for ever and dont even have 3 months working with linux well ubuntu atleast | 05:16 |
| daklan | Prose_: hmm, maybe you can compare the output of "netstat -l" and "netstat -ln"? | 05:16 |
| izinucs | Prose_, are you behind a router? do you have the same ports forwarded to your machine? you might need to change the configured port if your isp block the standard ones | 05:16 |
| daklan | harley: my bad. archive manager opens tar files, i think | 05:16 |
| BunTai | how to connect on LCD projector using UBUNtu? | 05:16 |

| izinucs | BunTai, not good to plug in a dvi or vga thing without the power off | 05:20 |
| harley | Razer ya | 05:20 |

| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: woops. i mean, what is that gizmo on the right side of his screen with the clock, cpu and ram montior thing? | 05:20 |

| ^Phantom^ | >_> | 05:31 |
| ^Phantom^ | i navigated to the directory containing the poweriso file and the .daa | 05:31 |
| harley | only40 seconds left | 05:31 |
| Macrosoft | iFvwm, quickest way would be to apt-get update | 05:32 |
| iFvwm | Macrosoft: i use a locate repository. it ok. hehe | 05:32 |
| iFvwm | BunTai: nvidia-settings | 05:32 |
| Macrosoft | iFvwm, which one | 05:32 |
| Macrosoft | ? | 05:32 |
| xtrememertx | hi ifvwm | 05:32 |
| iFvwm | Macrosoft: www.cn99.com | 05:32 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: Alright, and whats your problem? And we can live without the extra lines too. They aren't really necessary. | 05:32 |

| the_zemo | thunder: I changed it to one I know works, it was set to a high resolution, like 1600 x 1200 and I changed it to 1152 x 864. then the log on screen turned the way it did. | 05:33 |
| bobboy | How can I make my screen larger? It seemed Vista had a bigger screen size. | 05:33 |
| gord_ | bobboy, probably using the screen resolution option | 05:33 |
| Razer | harley: I right clicked the dvd then copied as target image, then burned the image to a dvd | 05:33 |
| ^Phantom^ | i navigated to the directory containing the poweriso file and the .daa in terminal and tried to get the poweriso file to output | 05:34 |
| bobboy | gord_ , i am on the top resolution as is and it still is small compared to vista | 05:34 |
| ^Phantom^ | output any info* | 05:34 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: what line did you use? | 05:34 |
| harley | Razer throw it in you dvd player and see if it works if it said its done | 05:34 |
| gord_ | bobboy, try changing your appearance settings to find a more compact theme. I always found default settings to be a bit bloated as well | 05:35 |
| Realcoolguy | bobboy: have you installed any ati/nvidia drivers asuming you have one of those cards? | 05:35 |
| Razer | harley: butit's right in the process of doing whatever "local image checksum" is | 05:35 |
| * ^Phantom^ d'ohs again | 05:35 | |
| ^Phantom^ | <_< | 05:35 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: where was the fonts directory again? ~/.fonts isn't working for me | 05:35 |
| gord_ | bobboy, also that ^ (Realcoolguy) | 05:35 |
| the_zemo | do I have to set the resolution so high again to fix this problem? | 05:35 |
| Flannel | !font | SchmittyDoesIt | 05:35 |
| ubottu | SchmittyDoesIt: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 05:35 |
| harley | RAzer then chill and wait | 05:35 |
| ^Phantom^ | hang on i gotta type it all out | 05:35 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: copy and paste works fine. | 05:36 |
| harley | hey how do i acces my usb drive | 05:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | NO IT DOESN'T | 05:36 |
| ^Phantom^ | not when the shared clipboard doesn't work | 05:36 |
| Macrosoft | harley, goto places>computer and see if it shows up | 05:36 |
| Razer | harley: k, but damn it's slow :( | 05:36 |
| bobboy | Realcoolguy , I have an Intel GMA X3100 and default installation of Ubuntu 8.04 | 05:36 |
| harley | Razer we must be paitent young grass smoker | 05:37 |
| Macrosoft | harley, if it doesnt, you'll have to mount it manually | 05:37 |
| bobboy | gord_ , I have an Intel GMA X3100 and default installation of Ubuntu 8.04 and changed the appearence but it does not really help | 05:37 |
| Flannel | harley: eh? | 05:37 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, if it doesnt exist, create it | 05:37 |
| Realcoolguy | bobboy: i think there's some sort of intel driver too, also you might need to edit xorg.conf to add your specific resolution to it | 05:37 |
| harley | Macrosoft it showed up before | 05:37 |
| Razer | harley: haha, kk | 05:37 |
| gord_ | bobboy, are you running at native resolution? | 05:37 |
| ^Phantom^ | phantom@phantom-laptop:~Desktop/Shared$ poweriso vista.daa | 05:37 |
| bobboy | gord_ , yes | 05:37 |
| ^Phantom^ | bash: poweriso: command not found | 05:37 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, ~/.fonts is the place users can install fonts and make use of them without hassling the sysadmin | 05:38 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: ok | 05:38 |
| bobboy | Realcoolguy , ill have to try to hunt down that intl driver than | 05:38 |
| OdaintyI | Quick question. New to Linux. I'm trying to get an apt but when I type in the command, it says unable to lock the administration directory. Arey ou root? | 05:38 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: In the future, we only need the stuff after the $, and also, you need to prefix it with ./ so, ./poweriso [whatever] | 05:38 |
| gord_ | bobboy, how exactly is it larger? do you mean by having 2 "task bars"? you can customize that | 05:38 |
| Flannel | OdaintyI: prefix the command with sudo (sudo apt-get whatever) | 05:38 |
| OdaintyI | Thanks. | 05:38 |
| |thunder | the_zemo; make a back up of /etc/X11/xorg.conf then run "sudo sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg", if it fails you will have to manually restore your old xorg.conf which is not straight forward for those new to nix | 05:39 |
| OdaintyI | And if it's unable to find it, I have to manually download and install? | 05:39 |
| Flannel | OdaintyI: Probably not. What are you trying to install? is this a fresh install? | 05:39 |
| harley | ok how do i mount a usb floash drive | 05:39 |
| ^Phantom^ | now it says /poweriso: No such file or directory | 05:39 |
| iFvwm | floash.. | 05:39 |

| bobboy | gord_ the website says by that 1280x800 but i think vista can go past that | 05:41 |
| OdaintyI | Thanks, Flannel. | 05:41 |
| karayan | harley, it should mount automatically | 05:41 |
| dekushrub | does firefox use gstreamer? | 05:41 |
| karayan | harley, which version are you using | 05:41 |
| WildCaterpillar | argh....my touchpad just froze...anyway to restart it without restarting | 05:41 |
| |thunder | harley; should be mounted automatically, try "mount -l" to see wether it was | 05:41 |
| oneal | Flannel - What !ru ? | 05:41 |
| gord_ | bobboy, I know it can't, and if it tried it would need to scale and would look like garbage on an lcd display | 05:41 |
| |thunder | harley; it will be mounted in /media/disk most likely | 05:41 |
| harley | karayan i did before but now it wont | 05:41 |
| Flannel | oneal: This channel is english only, if you want to speak russian, /join #ubuntu-ru | 05:41 |
| Macrosoft | harley, you need to find out the drive location (sda, sdb, etc) | 05:41 |
| oneal | ïî ðóññêèé áîçàðèò êòîíèáóòü ? | 05:41 |
| Macrosoft | and the partition number | 05:42 |
| harley | i know its sda | 05:42 |
| arooni | i have two identical boxes with a geforce 8600 GTS and i can't get ubuntu to work with it. box 1: boots up and says "Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode: your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly." ... box #2: box has a white box frozen on the screen that follows the mouse, and i cant get into text console. nvidia-glx-new is installed on both boxes, and xorg config was made with nvidia-xconfig | 05:42 |
| WildCaterpillar | eg, can I do /etc/init.d/something restart to get my synaptics touchpad working again? | 05:42 |
| gord_ | bobboy, screen size was one of the main reasons why I switched to fluxbox. I'm a minimalist person | 05:42 |
| karayan | harley, are you sure? I think it will be sdb. | 05:42 |
| oneal | What is 50 cent ? | 05:42 |
| bazhang | oneal, please stop. | 05:42 |
| Flannel | oneal: Do you have a support question? | 05:42 |
| Macrosoft | harley, then try sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/disk | 05:42 |
| |thunder | arooni; make sure in xorg.conf the driver is nvidia, not just nv | 05:42 |
| harley | 100% i had it working before when i just plugged it in | 05:42 |
| gord_ | arooni, try installing the nvidia drivers | 05:43 |
| |thunder | harley; did you unplug it with out unmouinting it first ? | 05:43 |
| === lordfdisk is now known as LordFDisk | ||
| oneal | bazhang - no ! | 05:43 |
| arooni | |thunder, yes its 'nvidia' not 'nv' | 05:43 |
| ^Phantom^ | the permission denied error is probably something from that faulty 8.04 upgrade <_< | 05:43 |
| harley | um i think? | 05:43 |
| bobboy | gord_ , it doesnt make sense though, i have a 1024x768 desktop wallpaper that is too big for ubuntu yet in vista I had to stretch the image | 05:43 |
| |thunder | arooni; and you restarted Xwindows ? | 05:43 |
| ^Phantom^ | hi | 05:43 |
| gord_ | arooni, alternatively you can try using nv or use vesa as a backup while you fix the driver issue... just edit the "Driver" property in xorg.conf | 05:43 |
| |thunder | harley; you probably did not. and if you, you may have ruined it | 05:44 |
| arooni | |thunder, yes have restarted | 05:44 |
| |thunder | arooni; thats weird...... | 05:44 |
| dekushrub | hey does anyone know if firefox use gstreamer because i have problems when i have rhythmbox and firefox open at the same time | 05:44 |
| mot | question | 05:44 |
| Macrosoft | answer | 05:44 |
| karayan | gord_, in hardy, the ubuntu folks have modifieds xorg.conf drastically? | 05:44 |
| LordFDisk | Q: is there a command I can type ... to see what kind of hardware I have ? | 05:44 |
| iFvwm | Macrosoft: :D | 05:44 |
| gord_ | bobboy, if you need to scale that image downward then you are not running at 1280x800 | 05:44 |
| mot | i just bought the dell mini last week and i'm wondering if there's an ISO of the modified "mini os" version of ubuntu (8.04?) floating around? | 05:44 |
| ^Phantom^ | why is the stupid bash denying me permission to modify MY filea? | 05:44 |
| Flannel | LordFDisk: lspci and lsusb | 05:45 |
| harley | thunder theres a led light on it when i plug it in the light come on for a lil bit but then it turns off | 05:45 |
| |thunder | dekushrub; your audio card probably does not support multiple audio streams playing simultaniously.... this is a sympton of old hardware. | 05:45 |
| Razer | harley: didn't work | 05:45 |
| Macrosoft | LordFDisk, try lspci | 05:45 |
| arooni | if i have 4GB of RAM should i be running ubuntu 64 bit? | 05:45 |
| LordFDisk | Flannel, Thank you | 05:45 |
| bobboy | gord_ but ubuntu says i am | 05:45 |
| Timberwolf5578 | What distro you all use? | 05:45 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: You're either doing it wrong, or your permissions are messeed up. | 05:45 |
| harley | Razer google nero for linux | 05:45 |
| gord_ | karayan, they did? I never noticed. But I'm stubborn | 05:45 |
| harley | brb i need to grab my laptop | 05:45 |
| LordFDisk | Macrosoft, Thank you | 05:45 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: first of all, what command are you using? | 05:45 |
| iFvwm | LordFDisk: sudo lshw or gnome-device-manager | 05:45 |
| === kiosk is now known as andara_m | ||
| Macrosoft | LordFDisk, flannel beat me to it | 05:46 |
| dekushrub | |thunder, no i have a new computer and it will do other streams playing at the same time, i have only had this problem with firefox playing media(youtube, etc...) and rhythmbox | 05:46 |
| LordFDisk | iFvwm, THank you | 05:46 |
| airtonix | arooni, you can use the server kernel to make use of all your ram...this gives you the added benefit of having a kernel that will be upgraded when you use apt-get | 05:46 |
| ^Phantom^ | i fsking give up with the poweriso | 05:46 |
| xyblor_ | When I mount a network share using nautilus, what directory does it mount to? | 05:46 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: again, watch your language. | 05:46 |
| karayan | gord_, I cant find what video driver I am using. All they say in xorg.conf is configured video device | 05:46 |
| gord_ | bobboy, try entering "xrandr" into terminal | 05:46 |
| airtonix | arooni, there are guides out there that suggest you compile your own kernel, but this isnt required and precludes your kerenel from being updated during "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade" | 05:47 |
| |thunder | harley; yes..... restart your system and plug it in..... it may have been that you didnt unmount it properly..... and before you unplug it, click "Places at the very top and click the drive, when it opens rightclick the drive on the left of the window and click unmount. | 05:47 |
| ^Phantom^ | gonna find a windows program that won't deny ME permission to modify MY files | 05:47 |
| rroblak | does anybody know how to turn off the nagios web service? | 05:47 |
| harley | thunder ya i was about to say it works in my laptop | 05:47 |
| |thunder | harley; other than that i'd say test it on another system..... | 05:47 |
| airtonix | arooni, besides...64bit isnt all its cracked up to be... | 05:47 |
| gord_ | karayan, You can specify the driver under the video device section | 05:47 |
| rroblak | I installed the apt package, and now the nagios web service is on my server | 05:47 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: Good luck, we wish you the best, but if youre going to be belligerent, please do it elsewhere. | 05:48 |
| |thunder | harley; it should be working automatically...... | 05:48 |
| rroblak | but I can't find any obvious way to disable it, while still retaining nagios | 05:48 |
| airtonix | rroblak, most services can be turned off via the system -> admin -> services | 05:48 |
| Razer | harley: haha it's playing in spanish audio but no video | 05:48 |
| rroblak | airtonix: I using ubuntu server | 05:48 |
| harley | thunder what do you mean by that | 05:48 |
| ^Phantom^ | i'm fed up with ubuntu saying this is broken, that won't work, permission denied at every corner i turn | 05:48 |
| rroblak | airtonix: do services=init.d scripts? | 05:48 |
| airtonix | rroblak, have you tried using : sudo /etc/init.d/nagios stop | 05:48 |
| ^Phantom^ | I'm quite frustrated at the moment <_< D: | 05:48 |
| Macrosoft | harley, he means it should mount automagically | 05:48 |
| J-n | ^Phantom^: What is the DAA of? if it's ubuntu, i'm pretty sure they distribute it on an ISO not a DAA file. If you've got a torrent client setup, the dl via torrent is VERY fast. | 05:48 |
| bazhang | ^Phantom^, /join ##windows then | 05:48 |
| |thunder | harley; it should auto mount and be available in the file manager (nautilus) | 05:49 |
| harley | Razer hhmmm....im not shere what you can do tghen | 05:49 |
| gord_ | karayan, alternatively if you install the drivers directly from the nvidia website, they will create a new xorg.conf for you. I'm not sure if the more experienced ubuntu users would recommend this route however. | 05:49 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: You haven't made it exactly easy to help you. But this is off topic for this channel. | 05:49 |
| bobboy | gord_ ok.. im at 1280x800 and max is 1280x1280, says VGA disconnected, says LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 | 05:49 |
| karayan | gord_, there is no video device section in my xorg.conf | 05:49 |
| * ^Phantom^ goes to #vent | 05:49 | |
| |thunder | lol | 05:49 |
| gord_ | karayan, can you put your xorg.conf in a pastebin? | 05:49 |
| airtonix | bobboy, the max resolution of your screen will be limited by the linux drivers of your video card. | 05:49 |
| harley | idk im gonna restart my system | 05:49 |
| Razer | harley: I'm using Brasero, why does every linux have a problem with everyday things | 05:50 |
| bobboy | airtonix , so what do i do, i have an intel GMA x3100 | 05:50 |
| gord_ | bobboy, do you have the option of selecting 1280x1280 in the screen resolution menu? That seems like an odd resolution... I've never seen a 1:1 monitor | 05:50 |
| Macrosoft | he could have tried running gparted or something first | 05:50 |
| airtonix | bobboy, lots of investigation and imploring to your hardware vendors | 05:50 |
| ^Phantom^ | k i'll try this again | 05:51 |
| bobboy | gord , no i dont have that option.. biggest option is what im on.. 1280x800 | 05:51 |
| ^Phantom^ | i got the poweriso file from here: [22:46] <^Phantom^> i'm fed up with ubuntu saying this is broken, that won't work, permission denied at every corner i turn | 05:51 |

| * ^Phantom^ kicks his clipboard :( | 05:51 | |
| Macrosoft | ^Phantom^, use sudo | 05:51 |
| Flannel | No, don't use sudo. | 05:51 |
| rob__ | pidgin randomly crashes, is there a fix for this at all? | 05:51 |
| gord_ | bobboy, I'd recommend you leave it at 1280x800. Make sure you have the appropriate drivers installed for your video card | 05:51 |
| Macrosoft | sudo chown <user> /stuff | 05:52 |
| * iFvwm funny ^Phantom^ | 05:52 | |
| gord_ | rob__, Depending on what is causing the crash, most likely there is | 05:52 |
| xtrememertx | even my pidgin and firefox crash randomly | 05:52 |
| airtonix | bobboy, usually (providing the linux driver of your video card allows it) the next limitation on obtaining your desired resolution is the lack of frequency settings...there is a prog you can use to fullly cat out the capabilities of your card whilst under the influence of the linux drivers | 05:52 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-do-i-open-daa-direct-access-archive-files-under-linux-or-unix-oses/ explains a few ways to use poweriso | 05:52 |

| ubuntutlups | i follow so many tutorials that i dont know what i have done | 05:54 |
| gord_ | bobboy, I'm going to assume you haven't gone out of your way to install drivers, so depending on what video device you have installed (find out with lspci), there is most likely a better driver than the one you are currently using. | 05:54 |
| airtonix | bobboy, in a debug kind of way yes....it may have just been the cat command used on the right /dev path | 05:54 |
| iFvwm | xtrememertx: of course, video, game, important thing | 05:54 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | how do i put a terminal on hotkey? | 05:54 |

| Macrosoft | ubuntutlups, if its working i would just leave it as is, no need to have to beta version | 05:55 |
| Flannel | ubuntutlups: Especially if you aren't sure what you've done. | 05:55 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, alt + f2, then type : gconf-editor | 05:55 |

| tony_ | Can anybody help me out, I can't get my wireless card working in Ubuntu | 05:56 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | ok thanx | 05:56 |
| gord_ | commands you recieve here will 99% of the time need to be in a console | 05:56 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, navigate to : apps -> metacity -> keybinding_commands | 05:56 |
| xtrememertx | oh | 05:56 |
| gord_ | (whenever they cant be done using a run dialogue) | 05:56 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: and in the directory with poweriso, and the .daa file (if you were to use those command directly) | 05:56 |
| ubuntutlups | -.- | 05:56 |
| xtrememertx | anyways even a small avi file is laggy :( | 05:56 |
| iFvwm | xtrememertx: so sad | 05:56 |
| ubuntutlups | can some one take 5 minutes | 05:56 |
| Macrosoft | ubuntutlups, what did you mean you cant run firefox? can you give more detail? | 05:56 |
| ronnald | I'm getting something that looks like codec problems while playing movies, how do i fix it? | 05:57 |
| ^Phantom^ | i got poweriso 1.1 from softpedia.com in a .tar.gz file | 05:57 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, actually (close all that ) easier way is : system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts | 05:57 |
| ubuntutlups | on once i click on the firefox icon it says Failed to execute child process "firefox" (No such file or directory) | 05:57 |
| gord_ | xtrememertx, you're probably missing video drivers, or the codecs you're using are horrid. try either getting new drivers if you havent already, and for the love of FSM get VLC | 05:57 |
| iFvwm | SchmittyDoesIt: need keybind? xkeybinding is good one. | 05:57 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, scroll about 1/3 the way down till you find " Run a terminal" | 05:57 |
| physically_fit | !wifi | tony_ | 05:58 |
| ubottu | tony_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 05:58 |
| bobboy | gord_ how would i find such drivers? and if i have them installed? lol | 05:58 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, you can set your keybind to open a term there | 05:58 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: excellant | 05:58 |
| Macrosoft | ubuntutlups, open a terminal window and type firefox, it might give some more info | 05:58 |
| xtrememertx | gord_ i tried using i810 and intel drivers .. i cant even watch youtube or play simple games like bzflag | 05:58 |
| tony_ | physically_fit: I've tried that already | 05:58 |
| bobboy | airtonix , im looking at his posts now | 05:58 |
| gord_ | bobboy, try "lspci|grep video" | 05:58 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, the gconf way i was about to lead you through is for other keybindings you cant find in that simple gui | 05:58 |
| favro | ubuntutlups: did you unpack the tar.gz? | 05:58 |
| bazhang | http://maketecheasier.com/how-to-extract-daa-files-in-ubuntu/2008/06/19 ^Phantom^ | 05:58 |
| ubuntutlups | The program 'firefox' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 05:58 |
| ubuntutlups | sudo apt-get install firefox | 05:58 |
| ubuntutlups | bash: firefox: command not found | 05:58 |
| gord_ | xtrememertx, what is the card and what drivers are you currently using? | 05:58 |
| SchmittyDoesIt | airtonix: and you know i like simple | 05:58 |
| Netham45 | I'm trying to put a bunch of files into a tarball, but I can't get it tarred. Anyone got an idea? | 05:58 |
| bobboy | gord_ comes up blank lol | 05:59 |
| xtrememertx | gord_ integrated i810 chipset | 05:59 |
| ubuntutlups | but i just installed it | 05:59 |
| iFvwm | xtrememertx: nnn, i remember sth, but not skill at intel video card. | 05:59 |
| ubuntutlups | look this tutorial please. | 05:59 |
| Macrosoft | ubuntutlups, yeah, if you run that command it gave you it will download and install it for you | 05:59 |
| airtonix | SchmittyDoesIt, that gui really needs a blank etry down the bottom that is for entering a path to a script and designating a hotkey | 05:59 |
| ubuntutlups | mmm.. i cant execute FFX | 05:59 |
| gord_ | bobboy, probe "lspci" yourself then, check for things that might resemble a video device | 05:59 |
| gord_ | the list wont be that long | 05:59 |

| gord_ | ubuntutlups, Do you have an update or a synaptic open? | 06:01 |

| ubuntutlups | i did open the terminal | 06:11 |
| gord_ | bobboy, then everything should be working correctly. My only explanation is that windows set an incorrect resolution or that your system is for some reason defaulting to a lower resolution. Xrandr should give you your current resolution, however you can check by opening an image of a known size and comparing it at 100% size to the area of your desktop | 06:11 |

When I try to use the Live CD version 8, the system goes through the loading phase on my external screen, but then the screen goes blank, as if it defaulted over to the laptop monitor. However, on the Live CD version 6, the external monitor wor | 07:02 |

| qwerfd | hello | 07:05 |
| qwerfd | i recently rebooted my box and turned on SMART monitoring in the bios and some other minor settings, then when i loaded xubuntu again the networking wasnt working | 07:05 |
| airtonix | sfer2, you also have to wade through quite a bit of text before you find the not so obvious words that represent your distro version | 07:06 |
| qwerfd | when i do a sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart i get a lot of errors with /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/sendmail | 07:06 |
| _2 | 99% of the time someone comes in here asking how to install tar.gz there is a .deb in the repos of what they are trying to do the hard way. | 07:06 |

| ubottu | http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation. | 07:06 |
| qwerfd | and /etc/netowrk/if-up.d/sendmail | 07:06 |
| sfer2 | airtonix: Yes, but it is a simple way to find it without opening terminal etc. | 07:06 |
| brolly81 | favro it unmounted and i did the command and an error came back No such file or directory | 07:07 |
| brolly81 | failed to change ownership of `/media/disk' to anthony:anthony | 07:07 |
| fallore | I'm trying to play mp3 files with Rythmbox. The files are on a partition used by my Windows XP boot, sda5. They will often play but sometimes instead of playing it skips over them as if they are not there. Does anyone know why this sometimes happens and/or how to fix it? Happens with all media players and even if i attempt to copy the mp3 to the ubuntu partition. | 07:07 |
| qwerfd | it appears that certain commands and scripts are not found... such as: /usr/share/sendmail/dynamic, update_interface, update_provider, update_host, update_sendmail... does anyone know how to fix this? | 07:07 |
| qwerfd | i am using exim4 instead of sendmail on my system | 07:07 |
| favro | brolly81: you can make a dir - sudo mkdir /media/anthonys_troublesome_disk | 07:07 |
| iFvwm | qwerfd: or perl script can do send mail well. | 07:08 |
| iFvwm | perl module | 07:08 |
| favro | brolly81: then chown it - it might be easier if it was an "always connected" disk to add an entry to fstab | 07:08 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, i dont understand what you mean.... these errors were generated when i tried to restart networking... the problem is that i cannot connect to my network | 07:09 |
| iFvwm | oo | 07:09 |
| iFvwm | just connect problem? | 07:09 |
| sfer2 | Ugh, now I need to ask a question... | 07:09 |
| sfer2 | Applications like Rhythmbox, VLC and Movie player just won | 07:09 |

| harley_ | ok im on the serg of going insanr\e i cant burn a iso my usb flash drive dont work my laptop cant go online so i can download the iso and burn it with that | 07:10 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, when i boot up it is not automatically connecting to the LAN, when i manually add auto eth\n iface eth0 inet dhcp to /etc/networking/interfaces and restart networking it gives those errors with sendmail | 07:10 |
| sfer2 | airtonix: Nope, I don't think so - my sound is working, though (just recently fixed it) | 07:10 |

| phantomcircuit | there aren't any rabbit's ears | 07:12 |

| phantomcircuit | no it's bluetooth that's the problem | 07:13 |

| favro | brolly81: do you still have the partitioner open? | 07:14 |
| _2 | harley_ there is a nero for linux but why do you want nero ? | 07:14 |
| iFvwm | not xbuntu here. qwerfd | 07:14 |
| Taiga-SK | sfer2, what is the error msg it complaints about? | 07:14 |
| brolly81 | no it was unmounted and then i saw it under my places and double clicked it and then it poped up on my desktop, wth? | 07:14 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, when my computer starts it will not automatically connect to the wired LAN | 07:15 |
| phantomcircuit | harley_, applications->sound/video>brasero | 07:15 |
| sfer2 | fallore: Yeah, I was referring to my previous problem | 07:15 |
| thinkfast | wow thats awesome, ubuntu is only using 200mb of ram with two instances of firefox open | 07:15 |
| iFvwm | i donot know how it works during start | 07:15 |
| sfer2 | Taiga: It doesn't give any message, it just won't start playing. | 07:15 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, wait where you serious? | 07:15 |
| CatEater | if it's the bt interface that's absent and not just the mouse, hardware reset | 07:15 |
| brolly81 | partitioner is still open, i just deleted my it and now it unallocated | 07:15 |
| Taiga-SK | thinkfast, how come? | 07:15 |
| harley_ | what | 07:15 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, i already restarted the system | 07:15 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, when i click on the little networking icon in the taskbar and select wired network i see the little green dots as if its trying to connect but it always fails | 07:15 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, did a full reboot | 07:15 |
| _2 | thinkfast why is it so heavy ? | 07:16 |
| CatEater | "reboot" = power off? | 07:16 |
| phantomcircuit | yes | 07:16 |

| Flannel | Kingbuzzo: you don't want to. Use sudo instead. | 07:16 |
| Taiga-SK | harley_, don't use it - simple as that | 07:16 |
| harley_ | well duh | 07:16 |
| brolly81 | fresh start favro so what now, dude i would have never of thought it would be this complicated | 07:16 |
| phantomcircuit | harley_, Applications --> Sound & Video --> Brasero CD Burning | 07:16 |
| sfer2 | harley_: the best burning software I've found is k3b | 07:17 |
| cHa | hmmm | 07:17 |
| Kingbuzzo | then how do I save files to my /usr | 07:17 |
| CatEater | that might do it, but just rebooting sometimes doesn't reset pci devices | 07:17 |
| iFvwm | qwerfd: what' the name of the network icon in xubuntu? | 07:17 |
| sfer2 | It burns iso images easily too | 07:17 |
| iFvwm | the soft name qwerfd | 07:17 |
| CatEater | i would remove power and battery for 10s | 07:17 |
| _2 | harley_ but why do you want nero ? xcdroast "nautilus burring app" k3b devede there are lots of apps native to linux. | 07:17 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, it is the 'nm-applet' it is not specific to xubuntu.... | 07:17 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, alright well i guess ill power down and unplug the power? | 07:17 |
| iFvwm | nm-applet? | 07:17 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, version 0.6.6 of the nm-applet | 07:17 |
| iFvwm | qwerfd: ok. | 07:17 |
| Taiga-SK | imo xubuntu is way too broken for regular use. | 07:18 |
| Kingbuzzo | how can I save files to /usr/local/share/games/mame? | 07:18 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, this should be a standard applet installed with all ubuntu 8.04 versions | 07:18 |
| harley_ | ok simple qestion if i download a nero for windows run it in wine will it work | 07:18 |
| CatEater | also briefly disconnect battery from both laptop and mouse | 07:18 |
| phantomcircuit | harley_, i already said no | 07:18 |
| _2 | Kingbuzzo save to home and sudo mv file /new/path | 07:18 |
| harley_ | o | 07:18 |
| harley_ | why not? | 07:18 |
| Taiga-SK | Kingbuzzo, only under root unfortunately. but you could try changing the ownership of the folder | 07:18 |
| qwerfd | Kingbuzzo, sudo cp what_ever_file_you_have /usr/local/share/games/mame/ | 07:18 |
| favro | brolly81: clean disk? - make it ext3 | 07:18 |
| iFvwm | qwerfd: so, you can right click it. and select "editor" | 07:19 |
| CatEater | harley_: same reason you can't run windows drivers in wine | 07:19 |
| Kingbuzzo_ | how can I save files to /usr/local/share/games/mame? | 07:19 |
| phantomcircuit | harley_, because wine doesnt support sending ACPI msgs over ATA | 07:19 |
| harley_ | k then | 07:19 |
| Flannel | Kingbuzzo: use sudo to copy them there. | 07:19 |
| favro | brolly81: is this a disk in the comp or a usb etc disk? | 07:19 |
| Cm101 | might anyone be able to render assistance with regards to an external monitor not working when booting from a live cd (version 8) on a laptop? | 07:19 |
| Taiga-SK | Kingbuzzo, use chown | 07:19 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, i have 4 options when i right click: enable networking, connection information, edit wireless networks, and about | 07:20 |
| harley_ | sorry iuf i was kinda a jerk when i logged on just im like going crazy | 07:20 |
| _2 | harley_ you "might" be able to use it in a vmware vbox or qemu vertual machine but again i have to wonder why. | 07:20 |
| qwerfd | Kingbuzzo_, sudo cp what_ever_file_you_have /usr/local/share/games/mame/ | 07:20 |
| harley_ | the iso or i could burn a cd in it | 07:20 |
| brolly81 | favro: logical, primary, extended partion? | 07:20 |
| iFvwm | qwerfd: and check if "roaming mode" is in your "manaul config" menu. | 07:20 |
| Kingbuzzo_ | thanks | 07:20 |
| favro | brolly81: is this a disk in the comp or a usb etc disk? | 07:21 |
| brolly81 | its in the comp | 07:21 |
| _2 | harley_ linux can natively mount .iso files and there are serveral good burning apps. | 07:21 |
| favro | brolly81: logical is what I'd use | 07:21 |
| harley_ | ya but the one that on linux ubuntu 5.10 yes its old dosent work | 07:21 |
| qwerfd | iFvwm, yes it is enabled | 07:21 |
| Flannel | harley_: have you considered just upgrading? | 07:22 |
| Flannel | harley_: you can go from 5.10 to 6.06, and then straight from 6.06 to 8.04 | 07:22 |
| harley_ | are you being smart i cant i cant burn a friggin iso | 07:22 |
| Flannel | harley_: You don't need an iso to upgrade. | 07:22 |
| _2 | harley_ cd or dvd iso ? | 07:22 |
| harley_ | cd | 07:22 |
| brolly81 | favro: i dont have that option with my partition editor only primary is available, does it matter? | 07:22 |
| phantomcircuit | harley_, this is very easy to do | 07:22 |

| Flannel | harley_: When you upgrade, you'll get newer drivers whcih may work, *or* you'll be able to successfully burn a CD | 07:23 |
| airtonix | harley_, shipit.net | 07:23 |
| favro | brolly81: nope- just went with what you gave - you can only have 4 primary partitions | 07:23 |
| harley_ | hhmm.... how do i upgrade | 07:23 |
| CatEater | did you disconnect battery from both laptop and mouse? | 07:24 |
| airtonix | harley_, https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ | 07:24 |
| harley_ | ok so i order a cd wait 8 weeks hget then a nother upgrades out | 07:24 |
| Taiga-SK | doesn't sudo aptitude dist-upgrade do the trick | 07:24 |
| Flannel | harley_: Which state do you live in? | 07:24 |
| Taiga-SK | -?- | 07:25 |
| airtonix | harley_, wont be that soon | 07:25 |
| WIGGMPk | so today I decide to leave my laptop suspended, come home from work, open the lid.. as I expected the graphics were messed up so I restarted the GDM via CTRL+ALT+Backspace.. it hangs.. restart the computer and now the root LVM is missing... wtf is going on??? | 07:25 |
| harley_ | minnasota | 07:25 |
| Flannel | harley_: contact the minnesota LoCo team, they can get you a CD a lot quicker. | 07:25 |
| sfer2 | harley: Up the top you should be able to see an "Updates Available" icon, then when you click that just follow the steps (because it will say there is a newer distro available) | 07:25 |
| Taiga-SK | wow he lives in us&a | 07:25 |
| harley_ | were did you think i lived | 07:25 |
| _2 | harley_ most of these guys don't remember all the breakage in upgrading from 5.10 to 6.6 if you aren't prepared to fix things, i can't with a clear conciense advise upgrading from 5.10 to 8.4 reguardless of the number of steps. | 07:25 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, i did for the laptop | 07:25 |
| Taiga-SK | harley_, europe at least | 07:25 |
| Flannel | harley_: #ubuntu-minnesota | 07:25 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, bluetooth device is still not even registered on the laptop though | 07:26 |
| CatEater | preemptive warning, after all the physical stuff i know 0 about bt | 07:26 |
| harley_ | dude i dont even want ubuntu this was like a emergency i want to burn my puppy linux iso and use that | 07:26 |
| Flannel | _2: There wasn't any breakage going from Breezy to Dapper | 07:27 |
| Taiga-SK | harley_, btw what's a puppy linux? | 07:27 |
| ASrock | when using audacity with ubuntu i cant hear anything...audio works for everything exept audacity, any ideas? | 07:27 |
| CatEater | next i'd try messing with the battery in the mouse and placing it farther than six inches away from the base at two different angles | 07:27 |
| harley_ | i personaly would rather use bck tracks then this | 07:27 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, crap i think it's physically broken | 07:27 |
| _2 | Flannel heh then why were the channels swamped with people asking how to fix things ;/ | 07:27 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, lspci doesn't list it | 07:27 |
| WIGGMPk | Can ANYONE help me.......!!!!?????? My computer NO LONGER see's my ROOT partition.. after coming back from "suspend" | 07:27 |
| harley_ | google it its a linux for slower computers and there like a billion versoins | 07:28 |
| CatEater | won't klist the interface or the mouse? | 07:28 |
| Taiga-SK | ASrock, audacity seems unstable try using XMPP or BMP. they're similar | 07:28 |
| CatEater | s/klist/list/ | 07:28 |
| Flannel | _2: Because they used third party repositories, and did other unsafe things. Breezy to dapper was no worse than any other upgrade. But we're getting offtopic. | 07:28 |
| phantomcircuit | CatEater, lspci should list the bluetooth mini pci controller | 07:28 |
| phantomcircuit | but it doesnt | 07:28 |
| Taiga-SK | WIGGMPk, mount -a | 07:28 |
| ASrock | Taiga-SK: what exactly is XMPP and BMP? | 07:28 |
| WIGGMPk | Taiga-SK: im sorry can you be more specific...? | 07:29 |
| Taiga-SK | ASrock, programs of course. alternatives to audacity | 07:29 |
| ASrock | oh | 07:29 |
| CatEater | since it's mini pci, you could check that it's still socketed | 07:29 |
| Taiga-SK | WIGGMPk, well just try using the mount -a command | 07:29 |
| _2 | Flannel "no worse than any other upgrade." != "no breakage" but rather == the usual amount of breakage | 07:29 |
| ASrock | srry i thought you said it seems unstable using xmpp or bmp | 07:29 |
| WIGGMPk | Taiga-SK: it returns with no feedback.. im in the liveCD right now | 07:29 |
| ASrock | Taiga-SK: which do you think i should try first? | 07:30 |
| Flannel | _2: Your earlier statement implied there were more issues than normal going to dapper. But again, we're getting offtopic, if you'd like to continue, I'm in #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:30 |
| Taiga-SK | WIGGMPk, oh then mount it the usual way then | 07:30 |
| harley_ | ok i have the k3b thing now what | 07:30 |
| Wicked | when i install lirc...it just freezes up when it goes to load the lirc modules....and i see this in dmesg: http://pastebin.com/m783c5f28 | 07:30 |

| brolly81 | favro where? | 07:41 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, i dont believe it automatically adjusts the prospective swap size according to the amount of ram you have | 07:41 |
| Flannel | illmortal_: That'll work, yes. | 07:41 |
| favro | brolly81: that should be the file that you pasted earlier | 07:41 |

| BunTai | somebody help me...ive install nvidia setting for my LDC projector.....then the dialog at nvidia setting come out like this | 07:43 |
| BunTai | You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. | 07:43 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, because when you suspend or hibernate the contents of ram are poured into the swap drive...then re-poured back to ram when you return. if you cant save all the ram to the swap drive you will be missing somethings...possibly system operations taht where in ram... | 07:43 |
| brolly81 | do i still need to add this any where /dev/hda1 /media/newdisk ext3 defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0 1 | 07:43 |

| Taiga-SK | psypher246, hardy is my first linux and i thing it §s just great. (not xubuntu though) | 07:44 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, just something to think about | 07:44 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: system operations is one thing.. what about missing paritions? | 07:44 |
| favro | brolly81: you can add it at the bottom if you like | 07:44 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: well i appreciate the knowledge but that acctually doesnt give me anything useful | 07:44 |
| psypher246 | Taiga-SK: so you are perfectly happy, no issues at all, feel like i'm running Win 3.1 on a 286, it's terrible | 07:44 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, isnt lvm controlled by a daemon? that lives in ram? | 07:45 |
| xInCasinoOutx | psypher246: hardy is also my first linux and ive been pretty happy with it so far; whats so bad about it that you dont like it? | 07:45 |
| Taiga-SK | psypher246, i can'ŧ acces my printer but it's a linux-wide problem. | 07:45 |

| BunTai | iFvwm: are you there? | 07:45 |
| airtonix | psypher246, i've been using ubuntu since breezy...hardy is the best out of them all... | 07:45 |
| Hamled | what is the correct way to switch between several alternative versions of an executable? (is it okay to just recreate the symlink in /etc/alternatives?) | 07:46 |
| harley_ | and link :-) | 07:46 |
| airtonix | harley_, sudo apt-get isntall k3b | 07:46 |
| Flannel | Hamled: update-alternatives | 07:46 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: even so, restarting would correct the issue... it does.. my root partition is GONE.... 10 7 | 07:46 |
| Hamled | thanks | 07:46 |
| psypher246 | nautilus crashes bout 6 times a day, usb copies are terrible slow, can't browse windows pc that have passords, firefox crashes and is terrible slow, apps constanly grey out when you do anything related to disk access | 07:46 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: err it doesnt... | 07:46 |
| Taiga-SK | arooni, that envy works and is good enough | 07:46 |
| ganes | what about the swap space if i boot the live cd | 07:46 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: i sit there and watch a splash screen.. eventually it tells me that it cant find my ROOT partition | 07:46 |
| xInCasinoOutx | psypher: i haven't had any of those problems; you tried hardy on another machine? | 07:46 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, have you tried booting up wit ha livecd and looking to see what might be occuring? | 07:46 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: im on the LiveCD right now | 07:47 |

| BunTai | somebody help me...ive install nvidia setting for my LDC projector.....then the dialog at nvidia setting come out like this | 07:47 |
| BunTai | You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. | 07:47 |
| psypher246 | airtonix: also been using it since breezy, and gutsy was the most stable, hardy is a TERRIBLE | 07:47 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, just ideas since i dont use lvm... | 07:47 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: but i dont know what to look for? or how for that matter | 07:47 |
| airtonix | psypher246, strange gutsy was the worst for me | 07:47 |
| psypher246 | i feel bad everytime i i convince someone to use it | 07:47 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: LVM is nothing more then a partitioning scheme | 07:47 |
| harley_ | ok how about virtual box for ubumtu 5.10 | 07:47 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, first you can check if you root partition is acutally gone | 07:47 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: its just logical instead of physical. | 07:47 |
| psypher246 | and worries that i'm going to have to support them if they do | 07:47 |
| marlun | I want my server to access a shared folder on my other computer but I don't want the server to have my username and password. I want to create a specific user for the server to access this folder. However I don't want the new user to have a home directory and all that. | 07:47 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: well i see the paritions with "sudo fdisk -ls" but i cant mount them | 07:48 |
| Taiga-SK | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c81bcjyfn6U breezy video. a little off-topic though. :) | 07:48 |
| harley_ | do they even make virtual box for 5.10 | 07:48 |
| xInCasinoOutx | by the way, anyone know of a way to keep windows from going below cairo-dock? im talking about having some sort of barrier for example to keep them above it | 07:49 |
| psypher246 | so no-ones nautilus crashes when u look at it funny? your whole pc does not freeze when you copy something anywhere, samba, usb, the same hard drive | 07:49 |
| brolly81 | favro http://paste.ubuntu.com/47679/ | 07:49 |
| Taiga-SK | marlun, it's possible. | 07:49 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, have you thought about using fsck on the partition? | 07:49 |
| xInCasinoOutx | psypher246: samba has never worked for me; always crashes | 07:49 |
| === jim_p_busy is now known as jim_p | ||

| harley_ | what ever im done | 07:49 |
| Taiga-SK | xInCasinoOutx, it works for me. used it trough a guide. | 07:49 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: what exactly is that? im not familiar with the command sorry | 07:50 |
| psypher246 | xInCasinoOutx: what crashes? | 07:50 |
| xInCasinoOutx | samba | 07:50 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, it stands for filesystem check | 07:50 |
| psypher246 | copying to or from? | 07:50 |
| airtonix | WIGGMPk, it also might pay to search through the ubuntuforums for similar cases | 07:50 |
| favro | brolly81: my bad - the /etc/fstab line needed hda1 changed to sda1 | 07:50 |
| xInCasinoOutx | either, it won't let me get any further than opening a file | 07:50 |
| marlun | Taiga-SK: any ideas? :) | 07:50 |
| Taiga-SK | what do you think is better? reiserfs or ext3 | 07:51 |
| incadudeF | Hey im tired of pirating vista. How do i start using Ubuntu? | 07:51 |
| WIGGMPk | airtonix: already been at the forums.. google.. tried system check and boot returns fine but the other error | 07:51 |

| Taiga-SK | marlun, it could be done in console. i read a samba guidde a while ago and i can't help you but i know it's possible so search the net | 07:53 |
| psypher246 | and anyone else having this slow usb copy problem i reead so much about on the forums and bug reports that just does not seem to be getting fixed? | 07:53 |
| Taiga-SK | airtonix, why ext3? | 07:53 |

| saintbo_ | everything | 08:24 |
| balrog | Guest53985: as far as i can tell, the guide you used is for drawing tablets (or tablets that have a usb interface). it should be as easy as uncommenting the lines in xorg.conf and then hitting ctrl+alt+backspace to restart X. it may be best to use a livecd first. | 08:24 |
| Guest53985 | ok so how do i do that? | 08:24 |

| Guest53985 | i dont understand what ur asking me | 08:35 |
| Guest53985 | well i installed it it ddint work | 08:35 |

| Guest53985 | how am i suppose to look at sommething that never worked in the 1st place | 08:35 |
| balrog | Guest53985: tablets arent automatically detected in ubuntu, but they make it as easy as possible to manually enable them. | 08:35 |

| hoonteke | is there a canonical way to change cron tab entries? As opposed to mucking about with the /etc/cron.*/ dirs and files? | 08:39 |
| Cheeky | how do get ride on envy and redtricted driver for nvidia from my computer so i cant start from scratch with the driver installation ? | 08:39 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: System->Administration->Synaptic | 08:40 |
| balrog | Guest53985: i would boot from the liveusb. then, goto Accessories > Terminal and type in "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" (without the quotes) and hit enter. a text editor will popup with a file loaded. at that point, come back here and pastebin (copy and paste) the file here: http://paste.ubuntu.com | 08:40 |
| hoonteke | search for nvidia and envy | 08:40 |
| thenetduck | can someone help me load a module into my kernel for ubuntu? I haven't done this before and am not sure what I should/shouldn't be doing | 08:40 |
| ushimitsudoki | hoonteke: crontab -e ? | 08:40 |
| saintbo_ | I'm also looking for a good explanation of the command line instruction in terminal mode? | 08:40 |
| balrog | Guest53985: after that, i will be able to tell you the edits to do to the file, and then you should apply those edits (theyre removing 3 characters, its easy). then after you hit ctrl+alt+backspace, it should logout, log you back in, and the tablet should work | 08:41 |
| hoonteke | ushimitsudoki: for non-ubuntu system, yes. But ubuntu is using anacron and things are a bit ... different | 08:41 |
| waan | thenetduck, man modprobe | 08:41 |
| balrog | Guest53985: sounds a lot more convoluted than it actually is | 08:41 |
| Cheeky | hoonteke: thats for envy only right ? | 08:41 |
| favro | brolly81: don't know why you get the bad superblocks bit unless your format went wrong - someone else might know more | 08:41 |
| Guest53985 | ok so once i pop in the USB it c> | 08:41 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: try a search for nvidia as well | 08:41 |
| brolly81 | favro i thought this would as simple as you telling me, "all you need to do it right click and hit use to save file or something" but jesus | 08:41 |
| Guest53985 | it pop up 3 optiob and i gotta pick the first right? | 08:41 |
| balrog | Guest53985: i dont understand, what happens? | 08:42 |
| thenetduck | waan do I need to unpack the module first? It's called hdaps_ec im running hardy heron | 08:42 |
| brolly81 | favro its cool whatever man you tried, ill give you props you know more then me | 08:43 |
| favro | brolly81: I've never had issues - but I am not working long distance doing it here | 08:43 |

| m_e_abbott | can anyone help me with arpwatch localmail? | 08:45 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: as far as I know, envy only uses apt, so whatever you remove, it's cool. Envy be able to reverse whatever you do | 08:45 |
| thenetduck | waan ThinkPad R61 | 08:45 |
| Cheeky | Taiga-SK: how do i that ... i mean i did install envy through synaptic | 08:45 |
| hoonteke | my suggestion, whatever nvidia packages are installed, just flat remove 'em. | 08:45 |
| saintbo_ | checking it out thanks and still looking for the window app to do a full backup of linux to a shared drive. | 08:45 |
| hoonteke | if it doesn't work, here's the recipe you'll need to get it back from the commandline | 08:46 |
| waan | thenetduck, ok, and the module is for active protection system right? | 08:46 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: apt-cache search nvidia | less | 08:46 |
| thenetduck | waan correct :) | 08:46 |
| Taiga-SK | Cheeky, ok run it | 08:46 |
| hoonteke | that's a pipe character, usually above the \ key on the keyboard | 08:46 |
| thenetduck | waan I was using thinkwiki for informait n | 08:46 |
| thenetduck | waan information | 08:46 |
| Sertse | heh | 08:46 |
| hoonteke | then apt-get install whatever-packages you-need | 08:46 |
| balrog | Guest53985: so the liveusb works when you are logged into windows? | 08:46 |
| Cheeky | hoonteke: it spat out a lot of stuff .. which one do i download ? | 08:47 |
| waan | thenetduck, hehe yeah that's what I'm reading, but I only found a t60 wiki | 08:47 |
| Taiga-SK | alt+w is pipe | 08:47 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: this is the rough part of Linux / Ubuntu. You'll have to experiment. | 08:47 |
| Taiga-SK | right alt+w * | 08:47 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: it depends on what hardware you've got, what exactly you're trying to do, etc. | 08:47 |
| thenetduck | waan It should be the same, they all use the same hardware, at least that I am aware of... Apples and ThinkPads ... | 08:48 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: google is your friend as well, if "the right" people aren't on this channel to help right now. | 08:48 |
| Cheeky | hoonteke: iam trying to get my dirvers for my nvidia 6600 working | 08:48 |
| hardaysknight | can anyone help me with irssi channel autojoin? | 08:48 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: I'm surprised that Envy didn't "just work" then? | 08:48 |
| thenetduck | waan I found the module when I typed in dpkg -S hdaps_ec but I don't really know where to go from there | 08:48 |
| Guest53985 | yea balrog | 08:49 |
| waan | ok, you just need to add it to /etc/modules then I think | 08:49 |
| thenetduck | waan I unpack it? configure it? then install it with modprobe? | 08:49 |
| balrog | Guest53985: does the usb work before windows boots? | 08:49 |
| Guest53985 | no | 08:49 |
| Guest53985 | but i can get another comuter to do that | 08:50 |
| Cheeky | hoonteke: could i pm if you dont mind ? | 08:50 |
| hoonteke | Cheeky: fire away | 08:50 |
| Guest53985 | since i have a cd with linux | 08:50 |
| waan | thenetduck, no, just try adding to /etc/modules | 08:50 |
| ikt | test | 08:51 |
| waan | thenetduck, gksu gedit /etc/modules | 08:51 |
| Guest53985 | so what should i do | 08:52 |
| zhaozhou | Guest53985, boot it? | 08:53 |
| waan | thenetduck, then just add hdaps_ec to the bottom | 08:53 |
| balrog | Guest53985: how did you install linux in the first place? did you boot into windows first and install it from there, or did you boot into the livecd? | 08:53 |
| thenetduck | waan ok | 08:54 |
| Taiga-SK | how can you install linux under windows. that's nonsense | 08:54 |
| Guest53985 | on this one i booted from the window xp using the live USB | 08:54 |
| zhaozhou | Oh, hdaps_ec <3 | 08:54 |
| thenetduck | waan what does modeprobe do then? | 08:54 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, loads it at boot-time | 08:54 |
| hax0r | can some1 help me to configure kopote to connect through proxy | 08:54 |
| waan | thenetduck, it's for adding modules on the fly | 08:54 |
| balrog | Taiga-SK: its called wubi, and its far from nonsense | 08:55 |
| thenetduck | waan is it the same thing as me just adding it to /etc/modules? | 08:55 |
| Taiga-SK | waan, no but i coud help you with pidgin. what say you? | 08:55 |
| zhaozhou | hax0r, modprobe loads it for now, /etc/modules loads it next time you boot aswell | 08:55 |
| KoN3838 | greetings! | 08:55 |
| Taiga-SK | balrog, why should i have windows just to install linux? | 08:55 |
| Guest53985 | well what do you think i should do | 08:55 |
| Guest53985 | should i just go too the boot option where i dont install anything | 08:56 |
| balrog | Taiga-SK: you dont have to have windows to install linux. wubi is meant to allow people to install linux without going through the pain of repartitioning their hard drive. | 08:56 |
| waan | thenetduck, as zhaozhou said, modprobe loads it now, /etc/modprobe loads it for each boot | 08:56 |

| Guest53985 | ok 1 sec | 08:57 |
| balrog | Taiga-SK: repartitioning is better by any measure except for ease of use. its not easy for newbies to repartition. | 08:57 |

| Taiga-SK | waan, explain! | 08:58 |
| thomasite | I have a question: What is/are the difference/s between Kubuntu and Ubuntu? I know that the former is KDE and the latter is Gnome, but which of the two is better? Thanks. | 08:59 |
| waan | thenetduck, no probs | 08:59 |

| Er_Killo_2008 | lo se | 09:02 |
| Er_Killo_2008 | pero | 09:02 |
| Guest77608 | ok balrog boot from my live usb now | 09:02 |
| thomasite | Ogzy, what is in the desktop of Kubuntu? I've been using Ubuntu for months now. | 09:02 |
| chubs | !es | Er_Killo_2008 | 09:02 |
| ubottu | Er_Killo_2008: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 09:02 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, :D | 09:02 |
| Er_Killo_2008 | quiero poner el virtualbox | 09:02 |
| Er_Killo_2008 | y me da un problema | 09:02 |
| Er_Killo_2008 | quiero emular windows dentro de linux | 09:02 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, Come back to me if you axises arent right, you can try those out with hdaps-gl | 09:02 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, if you have hdaps-utils installed | 09:02 |
| ClarenceHuang | My ubuntu 8.04 booting speed is too slow, so I was return the 7.10 | 09:02 |
| chubs | Er_Killo_2008, /join #ubuntu-es | 09:03 |
| ClarenceHuang | someone tells me can use that file, but I found that's a text tile, and I don't know how to edit | 09:03 |
| ogzy | thomasite, KDE is the desktop of Kubuntu | 09:04 |
| Guest77608 | when i boot from a live usb after it retarts it asks me whcih OS do i want to use to i click XP or UBUNTO | 09:04 |
| Taiga-SK | what does K in KDE mean? | 09:04 |
| === sean is now known as Guest28369 | ||
| thomasite | Yes, but would the desktop look better in KDE? | 09:04 |
| thenetduck | zhaozhou, I think they are in reverse or maybe thats a game thing? hey when you tilt your laptop can you hear your cpu fan grinding? | 09:04 |
| zhaozhou | Taiga-SK, kewl desktop enviroment ;) | 09:04 |
| thomasite | (Pardon my ignorance on these matters.) | 09:04 |
| chubs | Taiga-SK, K | 09:04 |
| dinesh_ | >anyone send me link for dowloading broadcombcm94311mcg | 09:04 |
| dinesh_ | >anyone send me link for dowloading broadcombcm94311mcg | 09:04 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, Err, no. But i can if my CD is spinning. | 09:05 |
| Taiga-SK | what does kewl mean? | 09:05 |
| zhaozhou | Taiga-SK, That was a joke, kewl is just an acronym. | 09:05 |
| dinesh_ | >anyone send me link for dowloading broadcombcm94311mcg | 09:05 |
| zhaozhou | dinesh_, Stop it. | 09:05 |
| chubs | thomasite, it's really a matter of preference. what looks better to you may not to me or anyone else. i'd suggest looking at screenshots from both | 09:05 |
| dinesh_ | zhaozhou: no one is answering me | 09:06 |
| zhaozhou | dinesh_, noone know's where it is | 09:06 |
| chubs | thomasite, they're identical past the deskstop environment so if you don't like gnome you can uninstall it and try kde and vice versa | 09:06 |
| zhaozhou | dinesh_, If they knew, they would, the first time. | 09:06 |
| thomasite | Okay. Thanks. :) | 09:06 |
| thomasite | I have a real bad problem: Rhythmbox has been behaving oddly these days. It just freezes. :( | 09:07 |
| dinesh_ | zhaozhou: ok it means that no one knows the link | 09:07 |
| zhaozhou | dinesh_, Exactly. What are you trying to accomplish. | 09:07 |
| le_mischa | thomasite: if you want to install kde try amarok ;) | 09:07 |
| thenetduck | zhaozhou, when you tilt your machine forward does your neverball go back and visa versa ? mines this way, not sure if thats normal | 09:08 |
| Guest77608 | CALROG ARE U STILL HWEW | 09:08 |
| Junkee | amarok is the only reason why I'd run KDE :P | 09:08 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, Ah, then you have same as i have, wait a minute, i'll get you a link | 09:08 |
| dinesh_ | zhaozhou : i want the link for downloading broadcom bcm94311mcg | 09:08 |
| === sacul_out is now known as sacul | ||
| thenetduck | zhaozhou, sweet thanks :) | 09:08 |
| Taiga-SK | Junkee, what about smplayer? | 09:08 |
| Junkee | I don't think I have ever actually ran smplayer lol | 09:09 |
| chubs | Guest77608, no he's not | 09:09 |
| Guest77608 | oh | 09:09 |
| Taiga-SK | imo smplayer is cute | 09:09 |
| thenetduck | stupid fan ... I think it hits my laptop case when I move my computer. I am still under warrenty I wonder if I can get a new fan | 09:09 |
| sinan | I am having permission problems with my partitions. I can't create files correctly on my FAT partitions. I think the problem is with fstab, anyone can help? | 09:09 |
| Guest77608 | damn i need help with my tablet PC | 09:09 |
| Guest77608 | im trying to use Linux | 09:09 |
| Junkee | I just reinstalled ubuntu after a brief relapse of having to use Windows | 09:10 |
| Junkee | I plan on trying new things now that I am back, I'll add smplayer to the list :) | 09:10 |
| dinesh_ | zhaozhou: hey what happen | 09:10 |
| Taiga-SK | sinan, can'ŧ you just edit fstab? if not paste it here | 09:10 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Tp_smapi#HDAPS_axis_orientation there you have the orientations you can use, in the file /etc/modprobe.d/options you insert the line "options hdaps_ec invert=number" | 09:10 |
| Taiga-SK | to pastebin | 09:10 |
| chubs | amarok is still the best | 09:10 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: pastebin your fstab | 09:10 |
| sacul | chubs: new banshee is amazing | 09:10 |
| zhaozhou | thenetduck, you can just try everyone out, for me it was 1, for a friend it was 6 | 09:11 |
| Junkee | I would install it, but don't feel like downloading/installing a ton of kde libs and other packages | 09:11 |
| chubs | sacul, how new? | 09:11 |
| Junkee | just to run one application | 09:11 |
| sinan | Taiga-SK, danbh_intrepid: I do not have enough experience to deal with fstab. Find it here: http://pastie.org/273957 | 09:11 |
| sacul | chubs: running 1.3 from svn | 09:11 |
| sinan | the problem is with /media/files | 09:11 |

| magnetron | !paste > bhindi | 09:11 |
| ubottu | bhindi, please see my private message | 09:11 |
| chubs | sacul, have you tried amarok 2 beta? | 09:11 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: so, the folder is /media/windows? | 09:11 |
| sacul | chubs: no | 09:11 |
| chubs | sacul, it is also amazing | 09:12 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: no, /media/files/ | 09:12 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: well, i guess both :) but i am now facing the problem with /media/files/ | 09:12 |
| dinesh_ | bhindi: is bhindhi means lady finger | 09:12 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: and you want full permissions? | 09:12 |
| sacul | chubs: will have to take a look. i hack plugs on gnome-do and we had a lot of problems with amarok. banshee is working with us now :) | 09:12 |
| sacul | chubs: they wrote a dbus interface with us in mind | 09:12 |
| danish | plz sir | 09:12 |
| dinesh_ | bhindi: send me link for dowloading broadcombcm94311mcg | 09:12 |
| Taiga-SK | sinan, omg mine is much simpler | 09:12 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: yes. I want it to act "normal" :) | 09:13 |
| chubs | sacul, well that was kind of them. Yeah amarok and gnome don't always seem to go together as well as i'd like | 09:13 |
| sinan | Taiga-SK: can you help me make mine simple ? :P | 09:13 |
| hischild | How can i take a screenshot of my login screen? | 09:13 |
| sacul | chubs: one of the reasons why i started playing with other players and ended up on banshee | 09:13 |
| Junkee | hischild: print screen button? | 09:13 |
| Junkee | then paste into an image editing program | 09:13 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: well, you can try changing the umask to 000 | 09:14 |
| danish | plz help me | 09:14 |
| hischild | Junkee, the login screen .... not the normal screen .... prntscreen wont work then ... | 09:14 |
| === danish is now known as bhindi | ||
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: ... doesn't that cause a security problem? | 09:14 |
| bhindi | plz help me | 09:14 |
| chubs | sacul, the one thing about banshee that i hated was its startup time, having to wait for all my music files to load in that one playlist. I really like the tree style of amarok | 09:14 |
| hischild | !ask | bhindi and danish | 09:14 |
| ubottu | bhindi and danish: 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. :-) | 09:14 |
| Remorse_ | Hi | 09:14 |
| hischild | !pm | bhindi | 09:15 |
| ubottu | bhindi: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 09:15 |
| sacul | chubs: one thing i miss from amarok was mysql integration | 09:15 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: yeah, but isnt that what you are looking for? | 09:15 |
| visik7 | is there a way to cheat update-manager that I've do a reboot ? | 09:15 |
| hischild | visik7, why would you want that? | 09:15 |
| sacul | sacul: that made amarok uber fast | 09:15 |
| sacul | chubs: ^ | 09:15 |
| Remorse_ | no | 09:15 |
| Flannel | visik7: update-manager doesn't care if you reboot or not. It won't ever force you. | 09:16 |
| visik7 | hischild: 'couse it ask me for reboot when I don't need it | 09:16 |
| Taiga-SK | sinan, my fstab http://paste.ubuntu.com/47701/ | 09:16 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: i don't want to compromise my system, i want it to act "normal" :) | 09:16 |
| hischild | visik7, when it asks you to reboot it has a reason for it. | 09:16 |
| chubs | sacul, yeah, I use that on my music server. amarok 2 got rid of most of their support for other db's so it's mysql only now. hopefully that means even further optimizations | 09:16 |
| visik7 | Flannel: it display that stupid icon | 09:16 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: "normal"? | 09:16 |
| Flannel | visik7: just kill update manager. | 09:16 |
| visik7 | hischild: I can do the restart of my services by myself, I don't need to reboot for an hal or network manager or even a driver upgrade | 09:16 |
| visik7 | Flannel: in that way I'm no more notified of any upgrades | 09:16 |
| bhindi | ok sir can i pm u plzzz sir hischild | 09:17 |
| sacul | chubs: will definately have to play.. though no do plugin love till its released :) | 09:17 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: just like an EXT3 partition would act. | 09:17 |
| hischild | bhindi, no. Please ask your question in this channel. | 09:17 |
| Flannel | visik7: you could restart it later. It'll also restart when you reboot your comptuer | 09:17 |
| bhindi | can i paste it | 09:17 |
| hischild | bhindi, on a pastebin, yes. NOT in this channel. | 09:17 |
| chubs | sacul, oh well. I'm using kde 4.1.1 right now anyways :) don't tell ;) | 09:17 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: and what exactly do you mean? please just be direct. fat32 is fat32, its not ext3 | 09:17 |
| sacul | chubs: kde always felt bloated to me | 09:18 |
| bhindi | when i install some software thiss error found | 09:18 |
| g33k_gir1 | so, I used "free -g" to display my ram, and it says 9 GB for swap, 13GB in total? thats not right... I only installed 8GB, and surely that ratio of swap to regular ram isn't optimal? | 09:18 |
| chubs | sacul, agreed. I heard kde4 was less so and I gave it a try. It's now less bloated than gnome i daresay, I'm loving it | 09:18 |
| nbjayme | hello all. i am doing port forwarding ssh -L. How do i prevent it from asking me a linux password in remote box? thanks in advance. | 09:19 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: my applications are not being able to read my files. I want my applications to be able to read my files, without having to run them in sudo, and without making my files 777. | 09:19 |
| danish | sorry | 09:19 |
| danish | for dc | 09:19 |
| IamSOG | I think you can't really control your connection :D | 09:20 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, make sure it's executable | 09:20 |
| Junkee | chubs: how less bloated is 4 compared to 3? | 09:20 |
| hischild | nbjayme, you can use public / private key if the issue is concerning logging in on the remote box. | 09:20 |
| pan__ | can xchat ctcp like mirc? | 09:20 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, well, the directory the application needs to be executable anyhow | 09:20 |
| Junkee | pan__: yes | 09:20 |
| danish | hischild: | 09:20 |
| sacul | Junkee: thats a loaded question | 09:20 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, the file should only be readable as the application user | 09:20 |
| chubs | Junkee, I think there were figures online saying in most places up to 40% smaller footprint | 09:21 |
| Junkee | hmm, time to do some research lol | 09:21 |
| danish | sir this error found | 09:21 |
| chubs | Junkee, it feels amazing though. I'll see if i can find it | 09:21 |
| danish | hischild: | 09:21 |
| pan__ | how do i ctcp with xchat? | 09:21 |
| sinan | zhaozhou: what do you mean by "the application user"? | 09:21 |
| pan__ | if given triggers? | 09:21 |
| Junkee | i usually am a minimalist, but cant stand running window managers like flux, etc. | 09:21 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, All applications are run as a user | 09:22 |
| pan__ | fluxbox is awsome | 09:22 |
| danish | plz hischild will u see this | 09:22 |
| pan__ | gots to learn to use it | 09:22 |
| hischild | !pm | danish | 09:22 |
| ubottu | danish: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 09:22 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, if it's a daemon then most has his own user, otherwise it's often you | 09:22 |
| danish | thanxs | 09:22 |
| Junkee | enlightenment would be the only other window manager I would consider trying | 09:22 |
| sinan | zhaozhou: this is what is confusing, how come my applications can read my files, then ? | 09:22 |
| Junkee | sinan: they have hax | 09:23 |
| Junkee | :P | 09:23 |
| danish | u told me pm me danish | 09:23 |
| balrog | Guest77608: | 09:23 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, For example, i assume you are in x-chat right now? x-chat is run as you, therefore, all files _you_ can read, x-chat can read. All files _you_ can edit, x-chat can edit. | 09:23 |
| balrog | Guest77608: sorry, stepped out for a bit | 09:23 |
| danish | is that any other person which plz me | 09:23 |
| danish | plz | 09:23 |
| chubs | Junkee, fluxbox is so fantastic | 09:24 |
| hischild | danish, i have done no such thing. | 09:24 |
| balrog | Guest77608: youre the guy with the tablet issues, no? | 09:24 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, It's as simple as that, always. | 09:24 |
| danish | wats thing | 09:24 |
| danish | mr hischild | 09:24 |
| hischild | danish, tell you to pm me. | 09:24 |
| Junkee | chubs: I have ADHD and its hard for me to sit there and config fluxbox to my liking :P | 09:24 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, With one exception, applications can't use a non-executable directory. | 09:24 |
| danish | i do pm u | 09:24 |
| sinan | zhaozhou: i am in weechat-curses. I understand you point (now). For some reason, the files I am creating are not being read by my applications (probably after each restart, although I am not 100% positive). There is a problem. Can you help me find it and solve it? | 09:24 |
| danish | then u said why pm me | 09:24 |
| danish | is this joke | 09:24 |
| danish | ha hischild | 09:24 |
| XDi | hello all | 09:25 |
| hischild | danish, please don't pm me without asking first in this channel. I have not asked you to PM me. | 09:25 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, Hopefully. What files are the applications making? | 09:25 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, Some kind of configuration files? | 09:25 |
| Junkee | chubs: I found some numbers on kde 3.5.9 vs 4 | 09:25 |
| Junkee | it does look promising | 09:25 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, Oh. What files are _you_ making. :-) | 09:26 |
| chubs | Junkee, link me | 09:26 |
| n3nvidia | #null@irc.irchighway.net | 09:26 |
| sinan | zhaozhou: one of the problems i am facing, for example, is related to checking out from svn. I'll make a pastie. | 09:26 |
| Junkee | http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/12/13/2314206 | 09:26 |
| hischild | Junkee, can you link me as well? curious. | 09:26 |
| Junkee | i meant 3.5.8 not .9 | 09:26 |
| Junkee | sorry | 09:26 |
| * xnv doesn't understand why people are so sensitive about PMs. | 09:26 | |
| * zhaozhou neither | 09:26 | |
| chubs | Junkee, yeah I remember that article, that one is actually misleading so I was trying to find a different one. | 09:27 |
| sacul | xnv: zhaozhou: cuz the people in here that answer questions a lot would be inundated with them constantly | 09:27 |
| zhaozhou | sinan, Sure... although i do now know nearly nothing about svn. | 09:27 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: the utf8 option is for ntfs filesystems, not fat32... | 09:27 |
| hateball | Any way I can get Evolution to stop opening a new mail when I delete a currently opened one? | 09:27 |
| xnv | sacul: So ask them not to. No need for the whole channel to hear about it. | 09:27 |
| hischild | xnv, zhaozhou, the thing for me personally is that if i am helping someone and make a mistake, everyone here can correct me. | 09:27 |
| sinan | zhaozhou: http://pastie.org/273959 | 09:28 |
| XDi | when 8.10 is released stable would hardharon update automatically? | 09:28 |
| hischild | XDi, no. It will give you the option to. | 09:28 |
| sinan | danbh_intrepid: should i just delete this option? | 09:28 |
| XDi | I see | 09:28 |
| zhaozhou | sacul, inundated... thank's for that. : D /me learns english | 09:28 |
| Taiga-SK | XDi, i don't think so | 09:28 |
| XDi | So there really isn't a reason to wait for stable version then | 09:28 |
| balrog | Guest77608: alright, so, now that you are booted into the liveusb, you need to go to Accessories > Terminal. Type in "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" without the quotes and hit enter. A text editor with a file loaded should pop up. You will need to remove the # symbols from the lines that look like InputDevice "stylus""SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "cursor""SendCoreEvents"... | 09:29 |
| balrog | ...InputDevice "eraser""SendCoreEvents" Then save the file, and hold down the ctrl and alt keys as you press the backspace key. you will be logged out, logged back in (after a countdown) and the tablet should work. | 09:29 |
| chubs | Junkee, here's a better one: http://www.linux.com/feature/142661 | 09:29 |
| XDi | if it's pretty simple to upgrade anyway | 09:29 |
| Junkee | ty chubs | 09:29 |
| danbh_intrepid | sinan: I suppose so. I dont think I can help you without knowing the actual error that happening | 09:29 |
| zhaozhou | The only reason why i would'nt do PM is if i could'nt help... then i would be a waste of time and a dissapointment. | 09:29 |

| xnv | hischild: It's just weird when people take their PM convo into the channel instead of just responding to the PM by asking to ask again in the channel. It's like some people avoid PMs at all costs. That's what I don't understand. | 09:30 |
| XDi | flannel I mean, I want to install ubuntu but I suppose not waiting for 8.10 and install 8.04 again is fine because an upgrade would be simple | 09:30 |

| AkshunBoi | All of a sudden my xubuntu hardy install is getting stuck right after the GRUB bootloader (message is "Starting Up...", it just hangs there indefinitely). I recently installed some updates using the automatic updater, none of them required a restart, system worked fine until the battery died, on restart it began hanging. Any ideas? | 09:34 |
| dust_t | hi i installed ubuntu 7.10 on acer desktop x1200. its not detecting my lan card. I did lspci and ethernet controller is shown as nvidia corporation unknown | 09:34 |
| zhaozhou | a_l_e, The soundservers in ubuntu sucks, i and many others hate them. | 09:34 |
| danbh_intrepid | AkshunBoi: are you sure it hangs indefinitely? | 09:35 |
| dust_t | what module do i need to load ? or what driver do i need to install ? | 09:35 |
| nbjayme | hello hischild, yes i have generated a private/public key and can connect successfully. but everytime i connect it's asking me for the remote linux box's password (not the ssh passphrase). | 09:35 |
| gnuskool | le_mischa: lspci didnt show the card though? | 09:35 |
| AkshunBoi | danbh_intrepid: at least an hour or so :P | 09:35 |
| le_mischa | AkshunBoi: tried reparing package-management (grub - recovery mode) | 09:35 |
| danbh_intrepid | AkshunBoi: literally? | 09:35 |
| dust_t | nbjayme, check the file permissions on the .ssh dir and the private key on local and remote machine | 09:35 |
| XDi | thanks for the info guys, night | 09:35 |
| zhaozhou | a_l_e, the problem with ubuntu is that it enables alot of sound servers by default, OSS, alsa and pulse audio are 3 of them. If an application is using OSS for example, then that is fine, until another application tries to use alsa | 09:35 |
| zhaozhou | a_l_e, that wont work | 09:36 |
| AkshunBoi | danbh_intrepid: I plugged it back in and started it up and left the room, when I came back it was still hanging there | 09:36 |
| a_l_e | zhaozhou: well, yes... i think i can join you in that ate them :-) | 09:36 |
| dust_t | anyone knowns how to enable nvidia on board ethernet in ubuntu 7.10 | 09:36 |
| AkshunBoi | le_mischa: I tried hitting escape during grub and choosing the (recovery mode) option for the latest kernel (.21) and it hangs during startup, I can tell you what line it hangs at if you think it'll help. | 09:36 |
| danbh_intrepid | AkshunBoi: well, I had a computer that would hang for 10 minutes, literally, and consitently, but would start up eventually... Upgrading to intrepid solved it | 09:36 |
| zhaozhou | a_l_e, there is thus three ways of solving this; the first is too shut down the applications using the existing soundserver | 09:37 |
| gnuskool | if the restricted driver manager shows 'lw' is enabled, but not in use, how do I GET MY WIRELESS TO WORK? | 09:37 |
| a_l_e | i guess that the blocking program is pidgin... but i can't restart it atm :-( | 09:37 |
| le_mischa | AkshunBoi: it wont help me ;) | 09:37 |
| danbh_intrepid | svn --help | 09:37 |
| gnuskool | ooops 4 caps :D | 09:37 |
| danbh_intrepid | wc | 09:37 |
| zhaozhou | a_l_e, the second is too get the new applications using the already existant soundserver | 09:37 |
| zhaozhou | a_l_e, and the third is to completly disable all the soundserver except alsa. | 09:37 |
| AkshunBoi | danbh_intrepid: this system has worked without an issue for the last several months, though, did that behavior develop all of a sudden for you? | 09:37 |

| pan__ | so say i were to get wicd | 09:43 |
| pan__ | sudo apt-get install wicd | 09:43 |
| sacul_sleep | pan__: is cleaner too. (leaves less garbage lying around) | 09:43 |

| zhaozhou | arschofsong, Wait... is'nt there only none, normal or extra? | 09:51 |
| le_mischa | pvh_sa: you have to run wireshark as root. | 09:51 |
| zhaozhou | sacul_sleep, Ew. almost 11am here. :-) | 09:51 |
| arschofsong | the normal one | 09:51 |
| zhaozhou | pvh_sa, That's normal. You should be in the wireshark group | 09:51 |
| pvh_sa | le_mischa, is there no part of the system where i can give non-root users permissions to capture traffic? | 09:52 |
| zhaozhou | pvh_sa, You need raw access to the interfaces. :-) | 09:52 |
| balrog | comput3r: look for QCad in Synaptic | 09:52 |

| pvh_sa | wireshark uses raw sockets to listen to traffic, right? to get raw sockets you need to be root or "the process needs the CAP_NET_RAW capability" | 09:56 |
| airtonix | rajec, because you might not be aware of how apt-get and repositories work | 09:56 |

| le_mischa | rajec: if you want to | 10:06 |
| airtonix | rajec, for ultra bleeding edge versions you going to have to compile them, but if you want to install it in a way that allows for updating via apt-get you will need to investigate the use of checkinstall | 10:06 |
| thefoolonthehill | rajec: why don't u install and update pidgin via the repos? | 10:06 |
| airtonix | !checkinstall | rajec | 10:06 |
| ubottu | rajec: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 10:06 |

| airtonix | rajec, in that case if your not presented with updates there and you want even more up2datev versions the compile que calls you | 10:10 |
| exoa | DistroJockey: well how would i go about determining where i need to install grub at this time? | 10:10 |
| thefoolonthehill | currently i have pidgin 2.5.0 and 1 update available in the update manager | 10:10 |
| le_mischa | airtonix: why? ;) | 10:10 |
| thefoolonthehill | so there is the update for ubuntu, definitely | 10:10 |
| le_mischa | airtonix: pidgin 2.5.0 is in hardy backports. | 10:11 |
| airtonix | le_mischa, well because apt-get doesnt give him the new version he desires....neither does getdeb nor does any other source other than compiling it from the pidgin svn | 10:11 |
| DistroJockey | exoa, from that livecd, you could do the following to see which drive to install it to : sudo fdisk -l | 10:11 |
| vev | #ubuntu.fr | 10:11 |
| le_mischa | airtonix: he wants v2.5.1 and that version is to be found here http://www.getdeb.net/release/3140 | 10:12 |
| DistroJockey | exoa, if it says sda then that would be hd0 | 10:12 |
| airtonix | le_mischa, then can you help rajec through that please? | 10:12 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: hey man .. did you forget about me? | 10:12 |
| DistroJockey | exoa, in most cases | 10:12 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, woops | 10:12 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: lol you were busy .. | 10:12 |
| rajec | thefoolonthehill: http://www.picamatic.com/view/1026489_Screenshot/ | 10:13 |
| exoa | this is the first actual linux partition: /dev/sdb5 1 5362 43070202 83 Linux | 10:13 |
| thefoolonthehill | type "sudo apt-get update" | 10:13 |
| exoa | would that be hd1,5? | 10:13 |
| le_mischa | thefoolonthehill: your version is in the backports | 10:13 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, i havent used envy since when i was in feisty with my ati cards...seems i was fortunate enough not to require anything other than the drivers presented to me via the restricted-driver-manager | 10:13 |
| weyer | hi, i need to run add variables to environment, and the provide script uses "setenv" | 10:14 |
| weyer | how can i convert this to ubuntu ? | 10:14 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, i was under the impression envy was for ati....although looking now im not sure why i had that impression | 10:14 |
| thefoolonthehill | le_mischa: means? | 10:14 |
| Vialas | locke: how do i make a dns host? | 10:14 |
| Vialas | locke: ps sorry for late reply, had someone at the door :( | 10:14 |
| locke | Vialas, with a dns server | 10:15 |
| locke | duh heh | 10:15 |
| le_mischa | thefoolonthehill: means that rajec will need to add/uncomment them to/from his sources.list | 10:15 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: yeah its for nvidia as well | 10:15 |
| locke | Vialas, you ever listen to ugly kid joe? | 10:15 |
| DistroJockey | exoa, you would need to put grub in the MBR of the drive that Vista is booting from, or change the drive priority in the BIOS to boot from the sdb drive | 10:15 |
| locke | back in the eraly 90s | 10:15 |
| jan500 | hi... can i exclude a dir when i use cp? i want copy /media/sda1/* to /media/sdb1/ but i dont want to copy /media/sda1/users | 10:15 |
| thefoolonthehill | le_mischa: that does make sense, indeed, XD | 10:15 |
| locke | 'i'm the godd*mn devil!' this job pleases me! | 10:15 |
| DistroJockey | exoa, put grub in the mbr of the vista drive may break vista though | 10:15 |
| bazhang | locke, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:15 |
| DistroJockey | exoa, putting^ | 10:15 |
| airtonix | weyer, i think in the bash shell to set a global variable its : EXPORT variableName="valueString" | 10:16 |
| chrisbrl88 | really - how can I tell if the system sees my TV card? | 10:16 |
| locke | bazhang, i'm not allowed in #ubuntu-offtopic for anohter 2 days i think | 10:16 |

| Popz | hello | 10:17 |
| airtonix | !envy | Cheeky | 10:17 |
| ganesh | mouse left click is not working..i tried with different mouse..same problem | 10:17 |
| ubottu | Cheeky: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 10:17 |
| sfer3 | !offtopic > locke | 10:17 |
| locke | sfer3, i'm not talking about it | 10:17 |
| Popz | anyone got any ideas why "top" is only showing processes from the current user, not all users? | 10:17 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, now i do remember it being just something that would determine your video card correctly and then based on that it would retreive the correct video driver... | 10:17 |
| airtonix | Popz, are you running it like thus : sudo top | 10:18 |
| Cheeky | sudo apt-get install envy-gtk....? | 10:18 |
| bname | any best algorithms yahoo messenger encryption? | 10:18 |
| airtonix | Popz, you might also like to have a look at htop | 10:18 |

| bname | any best algorithms yahoo messenger encryption? | 10:19 |
| airtonix | Popz, so you have another ubuntu desktop and running top without sudo allows you to see process from all users? | 10:19 |
| Popz | yea | 10:19 |
| bazhang | Vialas, there is a channel for that: #ubuntu-offtopic , does not matter if others are. | 10:19 |
| Popz | ubuntu server though | 10:19 |
| airtonix | bname, not sure if it works with yahoo messengar but there is a few for pidgn like off therecord | 10:20 |

| airtonix | Cheeky, try out some 3d apps | 10:25 |
| Guest48936 | any 1 know socks search software for ubuntu | 10:25 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, or had you noted the fps from glxgears before you made any changes you could run it now and see if your getting more fps than before | 10:26 |
| Vialas | anyone know why i cant ping a computer on my own network? (no firewall is not on) | 10:26 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: i did.. glxgears .. | 10:26 |
| Vialas | (cant ping via computer name) | 10:26 |
| Popz | anyone know any good memory/cpu benchmark software for ubuntu? | 10:26 |
| bname | <airtonix> you know, yahoo messenger use a very simply an dangerous connection | 10:26 |
| airtonix | Vialas, your using avahi maybe? | 10:26 |
| MrD1 | Ok not sure if this is really a ubunttu question or not, does any one know about the 4 way handshake methods? | 10:26 |
| airtonix | bname, its why i dont use it | 10:26 |
| bname | <airtonix> any body can see your data | 10:27 |
| bname | <airtonix>yea | 10:27 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: no i didnt and .. when i did that command .. it didnt even ask me to restart i didnt even see a splash screen of nvidia .. | 10:27 |
| airtonix | bname, read up on TOR...and have a look into using offtherecord together your dataz will be virtually untraceable and unreadable to anyone expect your intended target | 10:27 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: when i tried to turn on effects in ubuntu .. they asked me to turn my restricted driver .. but i didnt do it .. coz i installed envy | 10:27 |
| Vialas | avahi?? | 10:28 |
| Ziroday | Popz: phoronix test suite, or I know there is a package in the repos | 10:28 |
| airtonix | !avahi | Vialas | 10:28 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi | 10:28 |
| airtonix | Vialas, its bascially bonjour | 10:28 |
| Ziroday | Cheeky: you can enable effects manually by typing in a terminal compiz --replace | 10:28 |
| bname | <airtonix>good | 10:28 |
| Ziroday | Cheeky: and another reason why you shouldn't use envy :) | 10:28 |
| Cheeky | Ziroday: i didnt have to do that earlier .. when i installed .. envy | 10:28 |
| DosKey | For some reason i can't get video overlay without sacrificing the composition module... in xorg.conf | 10:28 |
| DosKey | Any ideas? | 10:28 |
| airtonix | Ziroday, envy is about dirvers yeah? so if he just ran the driver installer then surely to get the Xserver to use it a restart of the Xserver is order | 10:29 |
| Popz | Ziroday: do you know if that is gui or command line based? (or both) | 10:29 |
| Cheeky | Ziroday: then wat the hell am i supposed todo ..coz .. this is my secodn install in a one day :-$ | 10:29 |
| Ziroday | Popz: I believe phoronix test suite is command line, the one in the repos (name escapes me) is gui | 10:29 |
| Ziroday | Cheeky: run the command in the terminal compiz --replace | 10:29 |
| Taiga-SK | Cheeky, you're lucky you're not installing gentoo | 10:29 |
| Popz | ok thanks, i'll search around :) | 10:30 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, if you just ran the envy thingo....log out and back in again....force it with ctrl+alt+backspace | 10:30 |
| Taiga-SK | 2 gentoo installs a day - nightmare | 10:30 |
| Ziroday | airtonix: yes however the effects dialoge in appearance iirc checks to see if the drivers are installed. Since envy installs them manually they appear uninstalled | 10:30 |
| vev | hi, how to use usb headset/microphone with teamspeak? | 10:30 |
| Cheeky | airtonix: yeah i did .. do that should i try to .. umm dosomething with xorg file.. toset to the envy driver? | 10:30 |
| le_mischa | afaik you have to reboot when envy has finished successfully | 10:31 |
| DosKey | For some reason i can't get video overlay without sacrificing the composition module... in xorg.conf | 10:31 |
| jigp | i tried to install eye candy dock.now its missed up..i cannot see icons in the desktop and also the menu like System,Menu etc...how to restore it? | 10:31 |
| DosKey | please help!!! | 10:31 |
| le_mischa | Cheeky: what is xorg.conf saying? | 10:31 |
| yanainux | #ubuntu-fr | 10:32 |
| Guest48936 | help me | 10:32 |
| Cheeky | le_mischa: i dont know i dont knwo where it is .. but i heard or read in some forums that where your video setting are present ? | 10:32 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, touching your xorg without sufficent research can be dangerous...to tell the truth..without standardised hardware xorg.conf will be your biggest bane...but its also a blessing that we can even edit stuff to that degree... | 10:32 |
| Popz | hmm, apt-get has frozen on 'Connecting to security.ubuntu.com' @.@ | 10:32 |
| le_mischa | Cheeky: yes. | 10:32 |
| Ziroday | Popz: I believe the gui system is called hardinfo | 10:32 |
| le_mischa | Cheeky: /etc/x11/xorg.conf afair | 10:32 |
| Popz | ok | 10:32 |
| Popz | i'm looking for web based/cli as its on a server | 10:32 |
| rajec | Where are installed programs installed from repository | 10:33 |
| airtonix | Cheeky, in any case...this is the website of the envy author : http://albertomilone.com/wordpress/?cat=12 | 10:33 |
| Ziroday | Popz: then phoronix test suite is for you | 10:33 |
| Ziroday | rajec: what program? | 10:33 |
| Taiga-SK | rajec, that's quite a difficult question | 10:33 |
| Cheeky | le_mischa: wat do i do with it open it in gedit? | 10:33 |
| le_mischa | if you want to. | 10:34 |
| le_mischa | you could open it with less, nano, ... | 10:34 |
| airtonix | Popz, some reason i believe epsxe did a benchmark test on my setup when i first ran it....at least i think it did | 10:34 |
| le_mischa | you're running nvidia? | 10:34 |
| rajec | Ziroday: in general for example in windows you have program files as default | 10:34 |
| airtonix | Popz, i found a benchmark.txt in my home folder with some awesome stats | 10:34 |
| rajec | Taiga-sk are you from Slovakia ? | 10:34 |
| Cheeky | le_mischa: yeah iam | 10:35 |
| le_mischa | look for driver in xorg.conf | 10:35 |
| Ziroday | rajec: program launchers or the actual places where the program files are installed or the source code? | 10:35 |
| Taiga-SK | rajec, jasne | 10:35 |
| airtonix | rajec, to locate the files of a program...(it wont be neat) try : locate filenameOrFolder | 10:35 |
| Popz | airtonix: like what? :o | 10:35 |
| thefoolonthehill | rajec: you can look that up in synaptic | 10:36 |
| airtonix | Popz, see if its still in my trash and i will pastebin | 10:36 |
| rajec | Taiga-sk: ok ahoj :D proste nainstalujem program a chcem vediet kde je. | 10:36 |
| Popz | heh ok | 10:36 |
| le_mischa | if it says "nvidia" envy has edited your xorg.conf successfully and you'll be running the restricted driver as soon as you restart your x-session | 10:36 |
| Taiga-SK | rajec, no proste sa ti nainstaluje tam kde chce. najlepsie bude zadat prikaz typu: whereis mplayer. nazov programu zmen :D | 10:37 |
| Cheeky | le_mischa: can i pm you i missed your postes | 10:37 |
| le_mischa | Cheeky: if you want to | 10:37 |
| airtonix | Popz, mmm doesnt seem to be there...but i was looking at things like disk access speeds memory speeds...all sorts of tests | 10:37 |

| ActionParsnip | Bend0r: then it wont "just work" | 12:01 |

| DistroJockey | LeeJunFan, sudo blkid should give you the correct UUID | 12:23 |
| LeeJunFan | DistroJockey: it's not that I don't have the new UUID for it, it's that mount complains that one isn't there. ie. blkid shows the old UUID. | 12:24 |
| bastid_raZor | LeeJunFan; then the old one is the one you need to use. | 12:24 |
| LeeJunFan | err, sry - blockid doesn't - it shows the right one, but /dev/disk/by-uuid/ has the old one. | 12:25 |

| thefool-diffpc | Nike__: don't ask to ask, just ask | 12:27 |
| Nike__ | I want know if I running ubuntu with CD can I use linux programs ? | 12:28 |
| thefool-diffpc | Nike__: sure. when you're using a ubuntu liveCD u can use any Linux Program, that runs under ubuntu | 12:29 |
| Nike__ | I've other question | 12:29 |

| Osaris | !dpkg | 12:29 |
| ubottu | dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. | 12:29 |
| Nike__ | can I use this compiled in others linux? for exemple freebsd | 12:29 |
| Nike__ | or have re-compile ? | 12:30 |
| koshar1 | Nike__ not freebsd as thats unix not lunux, but a binary compiled for another linux platform may run if you have the librarys it calls | 12:30 |
| thefool-diffpc | Nike__: but then you have to turn it into a package | 12:31 |
| thefool-diffpc | afaik | 12:32 |
| Osaris | what is the command again too check if a package is installed? (like the rpm query command but for .deb )? | 12:32 |
| Nike__ | and if I compile in ubuntu 8.0.4 can I run in ubuntu server ? | 12:32 |
| koshar1 | you dont need to turn it into a package if you meet all the dependencies, however it could be messy, and packages are a lot better way to deploy proggies | 12:32 |
| thefool-diffpc | if you compile it to a .deb pkg u can use it in any distro that uses deb-packages | 12:33 |
| Pici | thefool-diffpc: Package names are not always the same accross distributions, thus dependencies do not work the same and debs cannot be deployed across distros. | 12:34 |
| thefool-diffpc | pici: hmm, didn't know that, thx | 12:34 |
| Pici | Osaris: dpkg -l packagename OR apt-cache policy packagename | 12:34 |
| Nike__ | Ubuntu server is a good chooise to run servers ? | 12:35 |
| Osaris | ty | 12:35 |
| Nike__ | or freebsd is better | 12:35 |
| Pici | !best | Nike__ | 12:35 |
| ubottu | Nike__: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 12:35 |

| Chousuke | emorris: it should automount; and ext2 keeps track of permissions in the filesystem | 12:49 |
| Chousuke | emorris: just use chmod :) | 12:49 |
| emorris | Chousuke: OK, it does automount now. Won't I have to CHMOD every time it mounts though? | 12:50 |
| Chousuke | the permissions will be persistent across mounts. However, when using the drive on an another system, the permissions may not match because they're based on gid | 12:50 |
| Chousuke | er | 12:50 |
| Chousuke | gid/uid | 12:50 |
| emorris | Chousuke: OK, doesn't hal or whatever delete the mount point when you unmount it from nautilus though? | 12:51 |
| Chousuke | your UID on your current system is probably 1001 or something; when you chmod permissions for your user and mount the drive on another system, the user with UID 1001 will have those permissions | 12:51 |
| Chousuke | emorris: yeah | 12:51 |
| Chousuke | but the mountpoint is just an empty directory | 12:51 |
| emorris | Chousuke: ok, so i need to chmod the device not the mountpoint | 12:52 |
| Chousuke | not the device | 12:52 |
| emorris | what am i chmodding then? | 12:52 |
| Chousuke | the files *inside* the mountpoint will matter | 12:52 |
| Chousuke | when mounted | 12:52 |
| emorris | oh, ok | 12:52 |

| koshar1 | jpastore basically these modules are for the closed source version as the ose version has yet to exceed V1.5 but when it does the modules are ready for it | 12:58 |
| koshar1 | emorris depends on the permissions, by default anything created in your home dir will have your reads and write permissions | 12:59 |

| jpastore | koshar1, so have i...just noticed them again wiht recent updates this morning and thought I'd get clarification.... | 13:02 |
| koshar1 | emorris but at the end of the day its doesnt matter where you mount the partition as long as it meets your need, it is nice to follow some conventions though as far as uniformity goes, if i were mounting a partition for personal resources it makes sence to mount it off your home simply because the permissions are already set correctly | 13:02 |
| emorris | ok, fe | 13:03 |
| emorris | thanks anyway | 13:03 |
| koshar1 | jpastore have you noticed the ose version in the repos is <1.6 and the comercial version is >2 | 13:03 |
| jpastore | koshar1, no I had not. I had downloaded the commercial version a while back to test getting usb support to the VE....but that didn't work out so well for me | 13:04 |
| dr3mro | I installed ubuntu with WUBI but i just boot into console and not gnome and i have to login then type startx to startgnome then it tells me it didn't detect the monitor but if i killed X it thenlogin but ther is no shutdown or restart buttons what can i do to fix this | 13:05 |
| koshar1 | jpastore well like yourself the OSE version works fine for me so i cant be bothered changing, i dont need usb support | 13:05 |
| jpastore | koshar1, I was just about to go check it out and see if I need to do anything....I'm fine with the ose version ....I just use it to run IE to test web apps I write...because MS != standards... | 13:05 |
| C0p3rn11 | sudo apt-get install kernel-image-x.x.x-xx = all you need to install an other version of the ubuntu kernel? | 13:05 |
| jpastore | koshar1, oh I gave up on usb support...I was trying to get sync sw for my phone working...I'm now using scheduleworld.com | 13:06 |
| koshar1 | jpastore yes and i jsut keep an ol w2k partition for australian Tax pack and printing labels direct to my canon printer | 13:06 |
| jpastore | I still have a windows box for outlook/crackberry support... I could eliminate it if evolution picked up it's a game a little and rim was willing to write linux support | 13:06 |
| Dawson | hey all:) | 13:07 |
| afeijo | why this dont work? for i in 'ls *.gz'; do tar -zxvf $i; done | 13:07 |
| jpastore | koshar1, you ever try getting that to work with wine? | 13:07 |
| Ohkie | hey guys. just downloaded the ubuntu installer and tried to run it on my new machine but it just seems to end up at the busybox console no matter what i do? | 13:07 |
| Dawson | with ubuntu, i am trying to mount like follows /sqwidge/ 0.0.0.*(rw) but with my ip address ... but the * wildcard isnt functioning and i cannot access from where ever on my network | 13:07 |

| fogobogo | hi eight | 13:23 |
| jnusa | no - just data :) | 13:23 |
| rootsnatch | ya it is actually pretty incredible | 13:23 |
| jnusa | (for god sake!) | 13:23 |
| rootsnatch | just install mythbuntu, and then install mdadm and reboot, and mdadm will see your drives as an array and recreate it | 13:23 |
| `kevinX | heyyy | 13:24 |
| rootsnatch | literally thats it | 13:24 |
| jnusa | no shit - with out any interaction? | 13:24 |
| rootsnatch | yep, that is what I have found to be true and I have done it 3 or 4 times | 13:24 |
| rootsnatch | I mean if you can, backup the data before hand of course, but ya | 13:24 |
| `kevinX | does xchat have a lot of the same commands as mirc? | 13:24 |

| thinkfast | its really annoying | 13:28 |
| LorenXo | thinkfast, the non gnome version displays them all the time | 13:28 |
| kelder | thinkfast: try xchat instead of xchat-gnome | 13:28 |
| rootsnatch | i don't know anything about chat, sorry | 13:28 |
| thinkfast | ok ill give it a go | 13:28 |
| Ohkie | root: it shows the ubuntu screen loader with the icon bouncing back and forwards and then just falls into the busybox console | 13:28 |

| thinkfast | ah thats better | 13:29 |
| thinkfast | hehe | 13:29 |
| thinkfast | thanks for that :D | 13:29 |

| g0tcha | hey guys, i need a little help.. i followed this guide to setup postfix https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixAmavisNew ,, after im done and i run telnet localhost 10024 to test if things are going fine i get this error: telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused | 13:29 |
| rootsnatch | that should give you actual events that are going on | 13:29 |
| g0tcha | anyone know why im getting that? | 13:29 |
| kelder | thinkfast: and you can put the channels as tabs at the bottom in prefs | 13:30 |

| thinkfast | i tried logging in to my MSN account on it, it just sat there saying connecting for around 3 minutes | 13:32 |
| thinkfast | now when i run it it prompts for a password, i enter and click ok - then it disappears | 13:33 |
| thinkfast | dosnt load | 13:33 |
| rootsnatch | I know this is a stupid but did you put the right password in for the msn account | 13:33 |
| rootsnatch | ? | 13:33 |
| thinkfast | yeah of course hehe | 13:33 |
| thinkfast | but now the app isnt even loading | 13:33 |
| Ziroday | thinkfast: try editing the account directly | 13:33 |
| rootsnatch | that is odd | 13:33 |
| thinkfast | yeah | 13:34 |
| thinkfast | might have to use meebo | 13:34 |
| Ziroday | thinkfast: if the program does not start up run it in the terminal and pastebin the output please | 13:34 |
| thinkfast | ah in terminal | 13:34 |
| rootsnatch | ya | 13:35 |
| thinkfast | does nothing | 13:35 |
| milligan_ | jnusa, sounds like a shit idea mate :P Shouldn't ubuntu be handling this automatically when I have set up everything in the respective config files ? | 13:35 |

| askand | Ziroday: I see..I'm in Sweden | 13:38 |
| rootsnatch | yep? | 13:38 |
| jnusa | sure it's a hack - however some things needs to be handled like this (have a ton of sdparm entries in a seperate script). Haven't really been messing with static routes in Ubuntu, so I don't know if this volatile behavior is normal | 13:38 |

| Sorlag | Jack_Sparrow, ubuntu | 13:54 |
| gnomefreak | Taiga-SK: yes but unsupported here | 13:54 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Sorlag Got that | 13:54 |
| gnomefreak | sort of | 13:54 |
| Taiga-SK | also it sais that it has "abiword" is it odt/msword compatible? | 13:54 |
| gnomefreak | Taiga-SK: yes IIRC | 13:55 |
| Ziroday | Taiga-SK: you can always in openoffice.org | 13:55 |
| hwilde | Taiga-SK, depends on what file format you save it. | 13:55 |
| gnomefreak | Taiga-SK: did you try in #fluxbuntu | 13:55 |
| SuperLag | I apologize if this question has been asked ad nauseum already... but the forum posts I'm finding are quite old. I'm trying to update, and dpkg is telling me that linux-libc-dev cannot be authenticated. I chose not to update, when I saw that. Has this package been compromised? | 13:55 |
| thinkfast | hey Ziroday - any way of stopping the debug messages in the console for pidgin? | 13:55 |
| thinkfast | or do i have to close it down and open it again without -d | 13:56 |
| Ziroday | thinkfast: you have to stop, and then restart pidgin | 13:56 |
| thinkfast | ah ok i get ya | 13:56 |

| Jack_Sparrow | sacabonos yes it does | 14:05 |

| seagullman | so does anyone know a good application to record my desktop? | 14:06 |

| v_kujat | sorry, wo muss ich hingehen, um die seite in deutsch zu bekommen? | 14:08 |
| Taiga-SK | sacabonos, envyng is a driver installer for ati and nvidia cards. it should change your vesa driver into something more reasonable | 14:08 |

| sacabonos | Taiga-SK: Thanks will do the "sudo aptitude install envyng" command now | 14:09 |
| Rimen | oke | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !who > Rimen | 14:09 |
| ubottu | Rimen, please see my private message | 14:09 |
| Rimen | so ~install acidrip will do | 14:10 |
| edp | Rimen, aptitude install acidrip yeah | 14:10 |
| HesterTheJester | acidrip better than k9copy? | 14:10 |
| jim_p | sacabonos: in case you experience problems, tell me. i have become an expert in ati's problems :( | 14:10 |
| edp | HesterTheJester, i think so, he is speedy and highly configurable | 14:10 |
| nnull | is there much difference between 16bit and 32bit color for playing movies? | 14:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jim_p Write up a tutorial on the cards and tricks you have found and pastebin a copy for me. | 14:11 |
| edp | nnull, the color depth? mdr | 14:11 |
| nnull | yea | 14:11 |
| HesterTheJester | edP: Thanks I will have to try it.. Does it need libcss to handle the decryption? | 14:11 |
| nnull | mdr? | 14:11 |
| edp | nnull, 32bits is normal | 14:11 |
| Taiga-SK | nnull, pretty much. but it's barely noticable in cartoons. pretty much with films tho | 14:11 |
| Hasanibrahim | which program can i use instead of Flash ? | 14:11 |
| beniamino | anyone know of a gcc 4.0 package for IA64 hardy? | 14:11 |
| edp | HesterTheJester, i don't now | 14:11 |
| jim_p | Jack_Sparrow: in fact, the only 100% troublefree way is install fglrx from the repo and configure xorg properly | 14:12 |
| seagullman | edp, sorry were you correcting me? i should be saying screencast rather than record? i thought screencast was an application | 14:12 |
| Taiga-SK | Hasanibrahim, try searching repo. i'm sure you'll find one. | 14:12 |
| nnull | Taiga-SK, so u cant watch avi/dvds with 16 bit color? | 14:12 |
| adac | Have some problems to install ubuntu. Vista is installed and the partitions are ntfs. Now I wanted to install ubuntu but when I try to rezie the partitions then an error occurs and it is not possible to contiune. any ideas? | 14:12 |
| popey | seagullman: screencast is a term | 14:12 |
| nnull | like u can but u wouldnt want to? | 14:12 |
| Taiga-SK | nnull, you can but it looks kinda bad | 14:12 |
| edp | seagullman, screencast is a soft | 14:12 |
| popey | seagullman: there are various screencasting applications | 14:12 |
| adac | *resize | 14:12 |
| nnull | :<<<<<< | 14:12 |
| HesterTheJester | WOW, a few dependencies.. | 14:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jim_p xorg has been a real issue, nvidia cant detect a lot of monitors correctly etc. | 14:12 |
| seagullman | popey, what do you recommend? | 14:12 |
| seagullman | edp, oh | 14:12 |
| HesterTheJester | and yes it does need libdvdcss.. | 14:13 |
| popey | seagullman: gtk-recordmydesktop | 14:13 |
| sacabonos | jim_p: thanks for the offer, anyways I installed the envyng package how can I run it now? | 14:13 |
| Hasanibrahim | Taiga-SK, repo can be use instead of Flash, can't it ? | 14:13 |
| Taiga-SK | adac, try finding errors on the windows partion and also free som disk space | 14:13 |
| edp | seagullman, popey is right ^^ | 14:13 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Ohkie # To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--" | 14:14 |
| adac | Taiga-SK: Well it is a fresh installation. I wanted to set 40 gigs for vista on the installation process of ubuntu and 450 for ubuntu...But it breaks and says that resizing is not possible | 14:14 |

| hateball | JDahl: either use find with -delete, or pass stuff to xargs | 14:18 |
| heidi | is there someone who can help me with my ubuntu installing drivers for brother printer (maybe over VNC) | 14:18 |
| jrib | JDahl: read find's man page about the -iname and -delete switches | 14:18 |
| jim_p | since morning, i filled up my terminal with wgers and curls and now i have to press up ~50 times to get to the command i want. Is there a way to remove the unwanted commands from the terminals history? | 14:18 |
| ne2k__ | JDahl: don't need to use grep, as find does it by itself. look at man find. | 14:18 |
| JDahl | hateball, jrgp thanks | 14:18 |
| Sirius | hi to all, some know how i can send to black list de sound to bios in a notebook?? | 14:18 |
| seagullman | absolute gold popey thanks for that | 14:18 |
| adac | Taiga-SK: It says: there were errors while trying to write on the partitions. Operation was aborted. Not very specific huh? ;) | 14:18 |
| ne2k__ | JDahl: hateball: the xargs advice is bad advice, because it breaks if there are more than a certain number of files to delete | 14:19 |
| jim_p | Sirius: like disable the onboard card? | 14:19 |
| zxcvbs | hi, anyone knows how to redirect tty/ethernet traffic through an eth interface? | 14:19 |

| snirp | What issues might I run into if I choose AMD64 distro? Will it offer an advantage in speed? | 14:19 |
| ne2k__ | zxcvbs: meaning what exactly? what are you trying to do? | 14:19 |
| Taiga-SK | adac, well try to perform a check of the partition either with fsck of through gparted | 14:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | snirp Stick with 32 | 14:19 |
| ljf | install maya? | 14:19 |
| snirp | Jack, thx, will take your advise | 14:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 14:20 |
| adac | Taiga-SK: Ok I try that | 14:20 |
| jrib | snirp: you won't have some apps like sun's java plugin (they don't offer one).... No, not really. You'll just be able to use >4gb of ram | 14:20 |
| Sirius | Not i like use blacklist. | 14:20 |
| adac | Taiga-SK: thx for the moment | 14:20 |
| snirp | argh, no big speed advantages either? | 14:20 |
| snirp | I hate Java, but it is necessary | 14:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | not really | 14:20 |
| Taiga-SK | what is a blacklist? | 14:20 |
| jnusa | Jack_Sparrow, snirp: how about 3gb barrier - is there anyway to get around this? | 14:20 |
| heidi | can anyone help me with a basic ubuntu driver installation problem? | 14:20 |
| hwilde | jnusa, 64bit | 14:20 |
| lovinglinux | Hi. I'm looking for a simple application to monitor incoming and outgoing connections on my network. I'm currently using Firestarter for this, but since it runs with sudo, it's not advised to use it for this. Any ideas? | 14:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jnusa INstall the server kernel | 14:21 |
| zxcvbs | use in a tty as default gw an eth interface | 14:21 |
| jrib | snirp: you get the java jre, but for a plugin, you'll either need to use icedtea (open source java) or use 32bit firefox | 14:21 |
| sukuri | thank y'all very much. You've been most helpful | 14:21 |
| sukuri | ttfn | 14:21 |
| ne2k__ | JDahl: the -exec option to find is very powerful, and should be able to do pretty much anything you'd like to with a list of file. If, however, you need to do something even more complex, use find ... |while read FILENAME; do <complex stuff> $FILENAME; done | 14:21 |
| snirp | Jack_Sparrow: thx, hitting download button on 32 bit now | 14:21 |
| jrib | heidi: best to just ask the channel your question | 14:21 |
| Taiga-SK | jnusa, either by using 64bit system or PAE memory adressing. also ubuntu server is said to remedy. | 14:21 |
| Jack_Sparrow | snirp let us know if you need help | 14:21 |
| jnusa | any downsides by using server kernel (using it with Mythbuntu) | 14:22 |
| jnusa | ? | 14:22 |
| heidi | how do i install printer drivers for Brother DCP-115C on the newest Ubuntu? | 14:22 |
| ne2k__ | lovinglinux: you will always need special privileges to see what is going on with the raw network card. you can add your user to an appropriate group if you trust it | 14:22 |
| Taiga-SK | dunno | 14:22 |
| snirp | Jack_Sparrow: I will manage with 32bit no problem. Wondering if 64 was worth the extra effort | 14:22 |
| JDahl | ne2k__, thanks | 14:22 |

| FD_F | dont have more than 640-400 resolution - (appearance working) thanks for help | 14:25 |
| jrib | Taiga-SK: retail? what do you mean? | 14:25 |
| heidi | jrib: Sorry how do i join a channel in XChat? | 14:26 |
| jrib | heidi: /join #channel | 14:26 |
| Taiga-SK | jrib, opposite of beta | 14:26 |
| ne2k__ | heidi: probably something like /join #channel | 14:26 |
| Hasanibrahim | is there anybody who is using WINE ? | 14:26 |
| hateball | Taiga-SK: Depends if you're prepared to tackle the few quirks... I run 64-bit on one machine tho, no problems apart from Java | 14:26 |
| ne2k__ | Taiga-SK: I think you mean release | 14:26 |
| jrib | Taiga-SK: "stable release", not "retail" | 14:26 |
| Taiga-SK | heidi, type /join #fluxbuntu or any other channel name | 14:26 |

| g0tcha | its a permission denied problem | 14:27 |
| Taiga-SK | jrib, what's the difference? | 14:27 |
| Winston_SmithVTT | jim_p: Not sure if you got an anwser to your question, got DC'ed. but you can use history -c to clear all the commands | 14:27 |

| Taiga-SK | ne2k__, but e.g. in windows directx has retail and beta versions | 14:28 |

| ne2k__ | g0tcha: dovecot is a mailserver, right? it looks as though the server is trying to create that directory and doesn't have permission to. perhaps you need to create it in advance or change the permissions of /home/test or... something like that. does /home/test actually exist? | 14:29 |
| hateball | Taiga-SK: I rather refuse using non 64-bit stuff until it's available :p | 14:29 |

| Jaco1 | bobertdos: yes | 15:17 |
| onthefence928 | and i spent the rest of the dream trying to install spore on to it | 15:17 |

| HesterTheJester | lol@Spore on an eeePC.. Spore runs bad enough on wine on a desktop.. | 15:17 |
| mEck0_ | HesterTheJester: okay, but aren't the keyboard on 900/901 a bit larger than 700/701? | 15:17 |
| thebackdrifter | ball state has wireless all over campus and having the eee is perfect | 15:18 |
| thebackdrifter | im not sure | 15:18 |
| HesterTheJester | No, the screen is bigger, keyboard is the same. | 15:18 |
| mEck0_ | HesterTheJester: okok | 15:18 |
| HesterTheJester | (they reduced the bezel on the screen ) | 15:18 |
| zd | keyboards should be as big as screens nowadays | 15:18 |
| sarmisak | its as big as a 12" notebook | 15:18 |
| thebackdrifter | yeah now that i think about it they have that big space around the screen for the speakers | 15:18 |
| sarmisak | the keyboard i mean | 15:18 |
| thebackdrifter | the keyboard is super tiny and its really hard to get used to | 15:19 |
| Rimen | is there any program that is better then wine and is also free | 15:19 |
| thebackdrifter | but now that i have played with it for a month it totally feels natural to type on | 15:19 |

| HesterTheJester | rimen: Depends on what you are trying to do. I use Virtualbox for some stuff.. | 15:20 |
| thebackdrifter | yeah thats my only complaint is the fact im not running atom | 15:20 |

If it's 2 then only a reboot will clear it, if it's 1 then you follow the parent's up to kill the one the fails to catch the termination. | 15:41 |

| allquixotic | bobertdos, spiritssight: PulseAudio is _not_ ALSA's successor. PulseAudio extends ALSA's functionality to be network transparent and provide software mixing and dozens of other features; ALSA still provides (and will always provide) driver level functionality which pulseaudio does not | 15:41 |
| Rewt | scampbell, I'm pretty sure it's #1. I have FF waiting on a Zombie, and I can't terminate either of them | 15:41 |
| jrib | babaklinux: you could disable your -updates repository (best to keep -security enabled) and then use your system that way | 15:42 |
| allquixotic | bobertdos, spiritssight: There is no concept of successor or overlap between pulse and alsa; they are complimentary. PulseAudio sits on top of ALSA. | 15:42 |

While this works fine for the most part, sometimes my cellphone likes to reboot, and of course kppp crashes out. I'd like to switch it over to a 'permanant' connection, whereas if the OS can't find the EVDO modem, it just retries in a few moments again to establish connection. Ideally, then, i'd not have to 'dial up' each time, just plug the phone in. suggestions? | 15:42 |

| allquixotic | bobertdos: PulseAudio can't impact ALSA's performance; it only uses ALSA public APIs. If you are getting sound quality or latency issues, that's not PulseAudio "interfering" per se, it's just latency introduced by virtue of pulseaudio having its own buffer and mixer and so on | 15:45 |

| scampbell | Rewt: no filesystems got unmounted (usb keys, etc) while ff was running? My though here is you can clear the kernel call hang by put the resource back if that's what really caused it. | 15:48 |
| allquixotic | SilentDis: It really depends on what sort of connection you use to your EvDO though -- I've heard of using your phone as a USB modem; bluetooth DUN; and even having the phone act as a wifi ad-hoc network and linking that to the WWAN | 15:48 |
| Salsero_Nash | hello I need a help with something in ubuntu | 15:49 |
| allquixotic | SilentDis: Chances are, 8.10 will support ONE of those three methods really well and the other two will be faulty or broken. Just Murphy's law | 15:49 |
| scampbell | Rewt: this is really common with NFS mounts that have hard mount options for example. Lose the mount and the programs with open files there can be kernel locked. | 15:49 |
| v4vijayakumar | "ctrl + alt + l" also works | 15:49 |

| ubottu | cosmos: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 15:53 |

| Tulimaq | wizardslovak: "chown" | 17:41 |
| hyperair_ | danbh_intrepid: yes i have | 17:41 |
| jyri | kysyisin sellaista asiaa että onko mitään muita hyviä ohjelmia millä anysee toimii kun kaffeine | 17:41 |
| valros | again, how does firefox find/use java, installed openjdk-6-jre.bin but no go on firefox | 17:41 |
| wizardslovak | how should it look like? i mean chown file newowner? | 17:41 |
| hyperair_ | soundray: i'll find out the details, but if it turns out to be gigabit ethernet won't the bottleneck end up as the hard disk? | 17:41 |
| DRebellion | valros: that's the wrong one | 17:41 |
| soundray | wizardslovak: what directory ownership do you want to change? It's best to leave system directories alone | 17:41 |
| valros | ah... | 17:41 |
| soundray | hyperair_: no | 17:41 |
| valros | k | 17:41 |
| hyperair_ | soundray: how fast can a hard disk go? | 17:42 |
| wizardslovak | its not system directory | 17:42 |
| wizardslovak | its shared folder btw suse and ubuntu | 17:42 |
| nkei0 | whats the command to show all processes? | 17:42 |
| DRebellion | valros: don't worry, i'll look it up for you :) | 17:42 |
| Tulimaq | wizardslovak: chown username filename | 17:42 |
| valros | k | 17:42 |
| hyperair_ | soundray: ah nevermind. i've done some calculations. guess i'll stick with ext3 then. | 17:43 |
| DRebellion | hyperair_: depends on how good your harddrive is | 17:43 |
| soundray | hyperair_: mine here does cache reads at 4+ GB/s, but that's irrelevant | 17:43 |
| hyperair_ | DRebellion: something that comes in an average pentium 4 pc. | 17:43 |
| hyperair_ | DRebellion: could be IDE for all i know. | 17:43 |
| amenado | hyperair_-> just because you have a gigabit ethernet, your network access via your ISP maybe only DS3 if that...44.736MBps | 17:44 |
| danbh_intrepid | hyperair_: I bet more ram will be what would help the most. That way, you can cache the files. | 17:44 |
| hyperair_ | amenado: i'm talking campus network here. there are ubuntu users within campus | 17:44 |
| favro | nkei0: top | 17:44 |
| soundray | speaker`: explain your problem | 17:45 |
| amenado | hyperair_-> even at your campus, are they all fiber connected? | 17:45 |
| hyperair_ | amenado: no? | 17:45 |
| knoppix_ | how do you know if /etc/files are on your harddisk on on your boot CDRom? | 17:45 |
| kibibyte | hi | 17:45 |
| knoppix_ | I mean, they're in your / but where are they?! | 17:45 |
| hyperair_ | amenado: but we're talking about not just one ubuntu user, but many. | 17:45 |
| kibibyte | i have propblem with mplayer install | 17:45 |

| danbh_intrepid | gribouille: I don't know, thats a good question. If you want to experiment, it looks like its in the gutsy repos.. You can get it there | 17:51 |
| amenado | Prose-> a server masquerading its ip address? how do you expect the client to see it? | 17:51 |
| DRebellion | !info megatunix | 17:52 |
| ubottu | Package megatunix does not exist in hardy | 17:52 |
| digao | hi! I'm a new linux user and just install ubuntu | 17:52 |
| Prose | amenado: yeah thats the thing, the server is behind a firewall | 17:52 |
| soundray | Scunizi: none of the modules that I know have capital letters in their names, so that could be a problem | 17:52 |
| Scunizi | soundray: ok.. I'll try with lower case.. | 17:52 |
| valros | still no sun-java5-plugin | 17:52 |
| digao | now the system is updating | 17:52 |
| amenado | Prose-> then you have to be creative in your firewall to let it forward through | 17:52 |
| Odd-rationale | digao: welcome. i hope you enjoy the experience :D | 17:52 |
| wizardslovak_ | soundray: owner is still root :( | 17:52 |
| soundray | Scunizi: having said that, I don't have a snd-ich5 module on my system either | 17:52 |
| Prose | amenado: and I think that when it sends informatino to the client as to where the data port is, it also sends its ip address (its local LAN address) and not the router address who would then forward it | 17:53 |
| digao | Thanks Odd-rationale | 17:53 |
| andriy | I have a problem with sudoers: in my /etc/sudoers file there is "andriy ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" but it still asks me for a password | 17:53 |
| Scunizi | soundray: same result maybe it should be sudo modprobe snd-intel? | 17:53 |
| soundray | wizardslovak_: sorry, my mistake | 17:53 |
| Drx | Enter text here...Türkçe bilen arkada015f varm0131 burada | 17:53 |
| amenado | Prose-> so the masquerading has to be done in the firewall and not where your vftpd is located | 17:53 |
| soundray | wizardslovak_: erm, no, I got it right | 17:53 |
| Prose | amenado: I already forward the control port for ftp and it works but it stops working when the client is given port and ip for data. Im pretty sure server is given internal ip | 17:53 |
| danbh_intrepid | valros: you could try: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras assuming you are running ubuntu btw, openjava is broken | 17:54 |
| soundray | wizardslovak_: what do you get when you enter 'sudo chown owner:group /path/to/dir'? | 17:54 |
| amenado | Prose-> thas the way it supposed to be, server responds with its own ip address | 17:54 |
| wizardslovak_ | nothing | 17:54 |
| wizardslovak_ | soundray: nothing | 17:54 |
| afeijo | do you guys know any good site to measure my site speed? | 17:54 |
| Prose | amenado: well no, because the information sent to the client says "the data port is 2054 and my ip is [internal ip]" and internal ip can't be seen from the internet | 17:54 |
| Odd-rationale | andriy: try: andriy ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL | 17:54 |
| digao | in firefox there is "ubuntu-firefox-modification"... how it is work? | 17:54 |

| soundray | !intelhda > Scunizi | 17:55 |
| ubottu | Scunizi, please see my private message | 17:55 |
| Prose | amenado: yeah but if server responds with 192.168.0.102, that wont help the client find it.. it should respond with router as-seen-from-exterior ip address | 17:55 |
| Odd-rationale | andriy: also, be sure to backup your original sudoers file!! | 17:55 |
| amenado | Prose-> you are not following me, i said all the response by the server is its own ip address(could be internal 192.168.x.x) | 17:55 |
| afeijo | danbh_intrepid: speekeasy or speedeasy? | 17:55 |
| valros | restricted is a bunch of java 6 packages | 17:55 |
| afeijo | found! thanks danbh_intrepid | 17:55 |
| amenado | Prose then as i have said you have to be creative in you firewall fronting your vsftpd server | 17:55 |
| danbh_intrepid | afeijo: np | 17:55 |
| === Evill_ is now known as Evill | ||
| soundray | spiritssight: you'd have to open a file manager with sudo privileges, e.g. 'gksudo nautilus'. Be careful, you can wreck your system with that. | 17:56 |
| Scunizi | soundray: nope I'll check it out.. snd-intel8x0 might work as it's in the same class as ich5.. at least according to the Alsa site. | 17:56 |
| afeijo | danbh_intrepid: oh, that measure my conection, I want to test my site (host) speed | 17:56 |
| wizardslovak_ | soundray: check private | 17:56 |

| ubottu | wizardslovak_: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 17:56 |
| Prose | amenado: but ... server tells client that the ip address the client should be trying to connect to is 192.168.x.x I argue that instead, it should be giving soomething like 89.32.34.21 which is router ip address | 17:56 |
| === bradleyprice861 is now known as bradleyprice86 | ||
| danbh_intrepid | afeijo: heh, maybe ssh into your site, and connect from the server itself | 17:57 |
| amenado | Prose nope, your firewall is acting as the client for the vsftpd, not your client outside the firewall | 17:57 |
| wizardslovak_ | soundray: i know i just dont want them to know my files ETC | 17:57 |
| valros | damn, still nothing | 17:57 |
| afeijo | danbh_intrepid: I can use ssh, what shell command should I use? | 17:57 |
| Falcons_roost | any answers on sound blaster x-fi fatality drivers for ALSA | 17:57 |
| babaklinux | how can underestand now i am in kede or gnome environment? | 17:58 |
| danbh_intrepid | afeijo: start a wget of one of the ubuntu iso? I think that those test websites also try a bunch of small files, but I think that would give you an idea | 17:58 |
| Prose | amenado: you mean to say that the server does not see the real client ip ? as in, IRL, different clients have different ips but for the server, every client seems to be originating from the gateway (Router)? | 17:58 |
| valros | ok seriously how do you get java working in firefox | 17:58 |
| danbh_intrepid | valros: whats wrong with java6? | 17:59 |
| genii | babaklinux: As a general rule if you're background is brown, Gnome, if blue, KDE | 17:59 |
| afeijo | valros: oh not easy, I found it on a forum | 17:59 |
| amenado | Prose correct, the firewall is the one interacting with the vsftpd server, | 17:59 |
| afeijo | valros: google for it | 17:59 |
| genii | (on unaltered kubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-desktop packages) | 17:59 |
| valros | what are the base and plugin package names for java 6 | 17:59 |
| Prose | amenado: but when I look at ftp logs, the logs clearly contain the (different) ips of different connections attempts | 17:59 |
| danbh_intrepid | valros: if you remove the other versions of java, and install the package I suggested, it should work... | 17:59 |
| Prose | amenado: and ssh logs also see the 'real' ip of the clients trying to connect | 18:00 |
| amenado | Prose-> which logfile are you looking at? | 18:00 |
| soundray | babaklinux: also, KDE has a Start button displaying a cog wheel in the lower left corner | 18:00 |
| Prose | amenado: Im pretty sure the router is forwarding the packets along with the original ip it got the from | 18:00 |
| danbh_intrepid | !java > valros if you keep multiple version of java on your machine, you will have to look at this help doc | 18:00 |
| ubottu | valros, please see my private message | 18:00 |

| Prose | amenado: and auth.log | 18:01 |
| amenado | Prose-> yes the firewall forwards the packets, and look carefully at what firewall rules is getting incremented on your firewall | 18:01 |

| Prose | amenado: well, the only rules I set up are to port forward the packets | 18:02 |
| trans | never mind, sorted it out | 18:02 |
| Prose | amenado: no port forwarding --> server can't be reached | 18:02 |
| amenado | Prose right, so those should get incremented everytime an outside client hits your vsftpd server | 18:02 |
| andriy | thanks to man that helped me with /etc/sudoers | 18:02 |
| Prose | amenado: I dont understand the use of the word incremented here | 18:03 |
| amenado | Prose then again, i suggest you have to create rules on your firewall to forward the packets | 18:03 |
| robnyc|amd | !nvidia | 18:03 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 18:03 |

| Prose | amenado: oh ok, so that means that packets are simply counted, as in "I am forwardin this packet, did it forward ? it did! good, I'll write in the logs that that was the 485th packet" ? | 18:05 |
| valros | im being told java 5 then java 6 | 18:05 |

How can i make it either remember my settings or completely disable bluetooth? i don't like this "open by default" policy. | 18:06 |
| Vladimir | amenado: *will die, sorry for my bad english | 18:06 |
| amenado | Prose yes | 18:06 |
| bobertdos | valros: You only need one version, and I would suggest 6. | 18:06 |
| Vladimir | amenado: it writes all information to 2 hards | 18:06 |
| amenado | Vladimir-> then look at software RAID | 18:06 |
| Vladimir | amenado: yes, what software raid is best? | 18:07 |
| Prose | amenado: ok good, there already are rules to port forward and I dont see how counting the packets affects port forwording | 18:07 |

| mib_0fdxp1 | ? | 18:07 |
| amenado | Vladimir-> i dont do raid right now..if i did, i would have used hw | 18:07 |
| amenado | Prose-> it should only increment up if the packet forwarded successfully | 18:08 |
| bobertdos | mib_0fdxp1: Top left corner of the screen | 18:08 |
| amenado | Prose if unsuccessful, it should not increment | 18:08 |
| mib_0fdxp1 | ty bobertdos | 18:08 |
| soundray | Vladimir: it's called mirroring (not miracle) | 18:09 |
| Prose | amenado: ok I get that, but still, it remains that: the only way to reach the server for the client is to reach the router ip address and the router then forwards the packets to the server on LAN | 18:09 |
| adac | bobertdos: nvidia geforce 9800GT | 18:09 |
| amenado | Prose affirmative | 18:09 |
| Prose | amenado: so when the server gives the client the data port, it also specifies at which ip address it is found | 18:09 |
| Prose | amenado: now, it says "im at 192.168.x.x" when it whould be giving out the router ip, the ip which originally allowed connection | 18:10 |
| bobertdos | adac: That card is too new for Ubuntu's restricted drivers. Read this-> | 18:10 |
| amenado | Prose correct and vsftpd will respond with its own ip address not the exterbak address of your firewall | 18:10 |

| pibe86 | hello i have downloaded intrepid-alternate-i386 beta 5, does it have more support for laptops? | 18:10 |

| CarlFK | how do I disable the "crash report detected" gizmo that i think is crashing... | 18:11 |
| Prose | amenado: what I am going to attempt to do is to tell vsftpd that it should stop giving it's address and start giving the address I tell it (the external router ip address) or I'll apt-get remove it's ass | 18:11 |
| danbh_intrepid | adac: I think that card is supported in intrepid | 18:11 |
| danbh_intrepid | adac: you may want to give the alpha a test | 18:11 |
| adac | bobertdos: envy is now official? | 18:11 |
| amenado | Prose good luck with that, as I suggest, its the firewall rules you have to manipulate | 18:11 |
| soundray | adac: envyng is | 18:12 |
| Prose | amenado: suggesting taken | 18:12 |
| adac | was buggy a lot when I tried first time | 18:12 |
| pibe86 | soundray: is #ubuntu+1 a channel to talk about any beta relase? | 18:12 |
| soundray | pibe86: no, it's about upcoming releases, whether pre-alpha, alpha or beta | 18:12 |
| adac | danbh_intrepid: intrepid? what is that? | 18:12 |

| adac | bobertdos: i guess I try envy yes | 18:14 |
| danbh_intrepid | bobertdos: is envy supported during the upgrade process now? | 18:15 |

| soundray | newbb: run 'tail -f /var/log/messages', then plug it in, and see if any error messages appear in the log | 18:17 |
| Glady | compartimented information and knowledge | 18:17 |
| bobertdos | rothchild: 9 or 10? | 18:17 |
| === deressy is now known as SportChick | ||
| newbb | soundray: there's a message that appear... i dunno if it's an error | 18:18 |
| bobertdos | danbh_intrepid: and I think it might still be, but I use the dkms method for my card, so again, I would not know | 18:19 |
| rothchild | bobertdos: 9 from the repo (flashplugin nonfree) | 18:19 |
| soundray | rothchild: it's rock-stable here. Do you have another flash plugin installed? Check 'about:plugins' in firefox | 18:19 |
| newbb | soundray: the only thing that can seem an error could be this Write Protect is off | 18:19 |
| bobertdos | rothchild: what soundray said :D | 18:19 |
| Pizarro | I have set a VPN server, the clients can connect but they only can ping the server, PLEASE I NEED HELP, thanks | 18:20 |
| b0rkb0rk | rothchild: i havn't had any problems and i'm using the adobe flash install.. did you use a different flash plugin? | 18:20 |
| valros | apt-get cant find the package sun-java5-plugin but its listed on ubuntu documentation | 18:20 |
| soundray | newbb: none of the messages indicate anything clearly wrong? | 18:20 |
| b0rkb0rk | Pizarro: you have to set up routes on the server to be able to see anything beyond the server itself | 18:21 |
| carandraug | valros: try "aptitude search java5" to make sure you're not making any typo | 18:21 |
| rothchild | soundray good call there's two in there, not sure how the other one got in there? How do I remove just one of them? | 18:21 |
| soundray | rothchild: what's the unwanted one called? | 18:21 |
| b0rkb0rk | i think there is a setting in openvpn for that... but it escapes me at the moment... | 18:21 |
| newbb | soundray: not apparently you want me to pastebin it? | 18:21 |
| soundray | newbb: no, you'd know if there was | 18:22 |
| valros | no plugin for firefox.... | 18:22 |
| Pizarro | b0rkb0rk, how can I do that? I only want the VPN clients to see other lan computers, not the wan | 18:22 |
| Pizarro | b0rkb0rk, I am using POPTOP | 18:22 |
| bobertdos | valros: If you type sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun 63 and that still doesn't change anything, you will want to create a symbolic link from the plugin to firefox. | 18:22 |
| rothchild | soundray: File name: libflashplayer.so Shockwave Flash 9.0 r115 | 18:22 |
| soundray | newbb: do you see your flash device when you run 'sudo fdisk -l'? | 18:22 |
| valros | sun-java5-plugin is the plugin for firefox, but its dissapeared from the repositories.... | 18:22 |
| Tanubis | Pizarro - you need to enable switching between devices | 18:23 |
| soundray | rothchild: what's the other one? | 18:23 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, and how can I do that please? | 18:23 |
| newbb | soundray: what's "sudo fdisk -l" for? it sounds like i'll format my disk lol | 18:23 |
| soundray | newbb: it's good that you're careful | 18:23 |
| MSI-Wind | pastebin | 18:23 |
| MSI-Wind | link to pastebin please | 18:24 |
| carandraug | newbb: it will list all your disks and partitions | 18:24 |
| Tanubis | Pizarro type this into a console as root... echo "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" > /etc/sysctl.conf | 18:24 |
| soundray | newbb: see 'man fdisk' to understand what it does (produces a listing of all partitions on all visible drives) | 18:24 |
| rothchild | soundray: File name: libflashplayer.so Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124 (this is the one that is in the repo) | 18:24 |
| bobertdos | valros: Do you have all the repos enabled? Because sun-java6-plugin SHOULD be there if you do. | 18:24 |
| Tanubis | Pizarro I'm assuming it's an ipv4 scheme | 18:24 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, ok, just a sec | 18:24 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, I installed POPTOP | 18:24 |
| soundray | rothchild: see if you can remove the old one via Tools-Addons-Plugins | 18:24 |
| ubuntutlups | Hi there.. | 18:24 |
| ubuntutlups | does some one knows how to enable my second monitor its on Clone mode. | 18:25 |
| soundray | rothchild: or at least disable | 18:25 |
| ubuntutlups | and i dont know how to fix this.. | 18:25 |
| bobertdos | rothchild: Yeah, because that's DEFINITELY your problem. Did you install Hardy via a distro upgrade? | 18:25 |
| Tanubis | Pizarro not sure what poptop is... if you're running openvpn as a service though, the server needs to have that configuration setting or it wont pass information between the openvpn interface and the regular network | 18:25 |
| Pirate_Hunter | does the command check .configure become registered in synaptic so i can remove the app afterwards? | 18:26 |
| rothchild | soundray: of course, thankyou I wouldn't have realised to look in there, yes this machine has been brought up from and upgrade | 18:26 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, POPTOP is ppt | 18:26 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, done | 18:26 |
| b0rkb0rk | Pizarro: i'm not familiar with poptop... but generally when vpn clients cannot see anything beyond the vpn server itself... it is because the clients don't know the network that is behind that server. For example, suppose Your VPN server is 10.1.1.50 and your LAN is 10.1.1.0/24. Well the client has to know that 10.1.1.0/24 is reachable via 10.1.1.50. Your clients don't know that... but from a vpn perspective they can ping 10.1.1.50 because it is the end | 18:26 |
| ubuntutlups | Hello. | 18:26 |
| ubuntutlups | does some has 5 min | 18:26 |
| soundray | rothchild: let's hope that this cures your crashes | 18:26 |
| bobertdos | rothchild: Yeah, I figured so. There's no other way you would have 115 and 124 on there, unless you had installed 115 manually. | 18:26 |
| Pizarro | b0rkb0rk, I understand, | 18:27 |
| soundray | ubuntutlups: nobody ever does. See if you can describe your problem in such a way that it attracts help. | 18:27 |
| Pizarro | Boredcollegekid, I understand the problem, but I don't know how to solve it | 18:27 |
| Beryllium | soundray: Exactly, he should totally sex it up some | 18:27 |
| b0rkb0rk | Pizarro: there should be a way to add that route to the clients when they log in | 18:28 |
| Tanubis | pizarro you familiar with the route command pizarro? | 18:28 |
| ubuntutlups | I need to activate my Second monitor. i am using a ATI Radeon Card, its on Clone mode and i heard that i gotta modify some xorg.conf but i dont really know what im doing... | 18:28 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, not actually | 18:28 |
| soundray | Beryllium: oops, I missed the actual question :) | 18:28 |
| Pirate_Hunter | how do i make a compiling package show up in synaptic? | 18:29 |
| valros | i cant understand this, theres no reason i cant find sun-java5-plugin in the ubuntu repositories | 18:29 |
| rothchild | hmm still crashing with iplayer.......how do I actually uninstall it rather than just un-enable it from FF? | 18:29 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, http://pastebin.com/m77a7420a | 18:29 |
| soundray | ubuntutlups: you've set it to Clone mode, but it's not displaying? | 18:29 |
| Tanubis | Pizarro you'll need a basic grasp of how it works... man route is pretty complete. Inside your openvpn .conf file, you can add in route commands to the configuration setting using route-up "command" | 18:29 |
| valros | http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-247487.html | 18:30 |
| soundray | rothchild: look at about:plugins again and do a 'locate' on the filename | 18:30 |
| bobertdos | valros: Have you reloaded the mirror list lately (or done sudo apt-get update)? Try searching for 6 too, not 5. | 18:30 |
| Pizarro | Tanubis, but I am not using OpenVPN, I am using POPTOP, pppt | 18:30 |

| crashymir | Anyone know what sound preferences tool is used in gOs 3 beta? Its better than the one in Ubuntu studio. You can select between hw / alsa / oss / pulseaudio. | 19:55 |
| crashymir | I want that in my Studio | 19:55 |
| valros | help, i have a package but gdebi says its the wrong architecture, its not, any other program? | 19:55 |
| KaiForce | KaiForce: my last message for fathead | 19:55 |
| crashymir | I just dont know what gOs used for the sound preferences. I do know the desktop is modified Gnome 2.2.2, but the sound preferences isnt from gnome. In fact, its the best sound preferences tool in any linux I have used. | 19:56 |
| daniel99 | Scunizi, awesome thanks allot i figured its the last possible thing i could do to save readwrites on my ssd built into my eeepc | 19:56 |
| fathead | KaiForce, your client has an active nfs mount on /home/partimage | 19:56 |
| fathead | ? | 19:56 |
| KaiForce | correct | 19:56 |
| Scunizi | daniel99: probably.. how large is the sdcard? | 19:56 |
| valros | help, i have a package but gdebi says its the wrong architecture, its not, any other program? | 19:56 |

| Scunizi | daniel99: cool.. | 19:57 |
| Scunizi | Alaskan_Dragon: what kind of card? | 19:57 |
| Scunizi | Alaskan_Dragon: 8800gt right? just saw it. | 19:57 |
| daniel99 | Scunizi, i could have bought more but i figured 4 is just enough for an os but since this thing doesent seem to want to boot off my sd card ill just dump my home dir on it instead. | 19:57 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | 8800 Geforce gts or gtx | 19:58 |
| Scunizi | daniel99: good idea | 19:58 |
| Scunizi | Alaskan_Dragon: have you done any updates to your install yet? | 19:58 |

| Scunizi | Alaksan_Dragon: yep | 20:07 |
| ejer | go for it lashi | 20:07 |
| valros | as for the architecture | 20:07 |
| Scunizi | Alaksan_Dragon: use tab to complete nicks | 20:08 |

| valros | if fucking intel but gdebi and dpkg dont think so... | 20:08 |
| zveroboy | Vladimir: are you still there? | 20:08 |
| bparks2 | valros: assuming i interpreted your question correctly, anything you want should be there | 20:08 |
| lashi | the idea was to burn a DVD of some of my photos, say so it takes up sectors 0 to 4000 | 20:08 |
| levene | keenscreen: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/dual-monitors-with-nvidia.html | 20:09 |
| lashi | then fill 4001 to 4324 with /dev/random | 20:09 |
| valros | i have i386 sunjava6 plugin | 20:09 |
| ejer | lashi: trying to hide stuff will only get you more attention imo | 20:09 |
| lashi | then have an XFS filesystem that's encrypted and "burn" that from 4325 to the end of the disc | 20:09 |
| valros | but gdebi wont install it because my system is"amd" | 20:09 |
| jedimind | can someone please for the love of christ help me figure out why ubuntu wont let me set a resolution properly and keeps defaulting to 640x480 | 20:09 |
| lashi | well, they won't know it's hidden | 20:09 |

| Phloam | Odd-rationale, is there no other way? I sort of only have the chance to do this tonight... | 20:27 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | trying to understand what people are telling me :D | 20:27 |
| Slade | lookin at iwconfig, it says TX power 0dbm and Not associated with access point (tho i did put in the key) | 20:27 |

| geirha | The binary is called gnome-app-install | 20:28 |
| Odd-rationale | Phloam: not that i know of... in fact, i never heard of your case before... it is a strange one... the alt cd usually has less problems booting... | 20:28 |
| geirha | jokkaa: ^ | 20:28 |

| Alaskan_Dragon | i just am FED FED FEDUP!!!!!!!!!! with crap windows | 20:28 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: put the name of the person in your line so that it hilights them... | 20:29 |
| Phloam | Odd-rationale, the thing is, I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware thing. I know of people with the exact same laptop who used the same CD. Is it still possible that only the alt will help? | 20:29 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | got windows VISTA ultamate and i got a HIGH HIGH end system and it cant run for crap | 20:29 |
| _Zeus_ | chubs: yes it is. it's just useless banter | 20:29 |
| chubs | dontchoke_, 32bit for most people. how much ram do you have? | 20:29 |
| valros | so 64bit pcs just dont use java.....because apparently there is no support on ubuntus forums or this channel | 20:29 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Scunizi you there? | 20:29 |
| amenado | Phloam-> before the very last part ie remove the cdrom and reboot, open up a terminal and look around for where the installation took place, fdisk -l, ls -la /boot/ , mount | 20:29 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | put it in my line how? | 20:29 |
| ejer | valros: java works fine here | 20:29 |
| chubs | _Zeus_, assuming he's confused over which one to get, it's not useless banter | 20:30 |
| g0tcha | anyone knows how to point ubuntu server host to a subdomain i created? | 20:30 |
| valros | you have 6 installed? | 20:30 |
| Odd-rationale | Phloam: it there is a work around, i have to admit that i am not of aware of it... | 20:30 |
| _Zeus_ | chubs: he's just asking who uses what, not what he should use | 20:30 |
| keenscreen | when i try to start up ubuntu i see this in xorg: (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extension (Compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) ... i've tried (1) using restricted rivers and (2) compiling the driver myself .... and i get this error on both solujtions.... how do i fix? | 20:30 |
| ejer | valros: yes | 20:30 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: like how i do. see. i put Alaskan_Dragon in my line <--- | 20:30 |
| g0tcha | if i named the mail server server1.balls.com and i created the subdomain server1.balls.com and pointed it to the ubuntu host which is ubuntu.homeserv.com? | 20:30 |
| Phloam | amenado, sorry man, I've never used linux before. no idea what youre saying... | 20:30 |
| chubs | _Zeus_, he said he was ordering a server and asking what version he should get | 20:30 |
| _Zeus_ | oh missed that | 20:31 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Ohh | 20:31 |
| _Zeus_ | well, i use x64, pretty happy with it. how much ram do you have? | 20:31 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: it will appear hilighted (red) for you. because that is you nick.... | 20:31 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-Rationale like this? hey erm i enabled the desktop cube but dont know what else to do. | 20:31 |
| ejer | g0tcha: you need to create an apache virtual host most likely | 20:31 |
| valros | ejer: you have java 6 installed, what packages? | 20:31 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | nothing different on my desktop | 20:31 |
| amenado | Phloam-> you can try a tutorial on linux, those commands I gave you are spot checking commands | 20:31 |
| g0tcha | ejer, then it should work like this? i mean its possible to do what im trying to do? | 20:32 |
| Phloam | Allright. Thanks... | 20:32 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: close, except you need to type the exact nick... i.e. my R is not caps... also, often you can use the tab key. like odd-<tab> | 20:32 |

| lawnninja | Hey guys, I installed ubuntu 8.0.4 using the live cd and had to install dmraid in order for it to recognize ich9r controller with raid 5 configured. After it installed and rebooted it hung after loading grub | 20:33 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, like this? | 20:33 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: for the cube, try ctrl+alt+left/right arrow | 20:33 |
| lawnninja | when I readd the error it can't find module raid45 | 20:33 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, nope nothing happened | 20:33 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: yes excatly, now everyone knows who you are talking to... and my irc client will give me an alert saying that someone is talking to me... | 20:33 |

| _Zeus_ | keenscreen: have you tried using vesa driver? | 20:34 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Scunizi, you there? | 20:34 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: do you have compiz enabled? System --> Preferences --> Appearence --> Visual Effects and select custom, or extra? | 20:34 |
| keenscreen | _Zeus_, yes i'm on it now, but i cant get dual monitor to work with that :( | 20:35 |
| === root is now known as Guest21302 | ||
| lawnninja | It worked on the live cd so I'm wondering if it loads modules from the cd and I just need to build a new kernel | 20:35 |
| _Zeus_ | keenscreen: hmm... what GPU? | 20:35 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, yep changed the settings to 4, 1, 1, 1, on the desktop size | 20:35 |
| mib_upbly9ik | ahhhh, help I broke my dual-boot windows and ubuntu laptop, by deleting the linux partition | 20:35 |
| keenscreen | _Zeus_, geforce 8600gts | 20:35 |
| Slade | anyone? | 20:35 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, and and exited and nothing happened, i had enabled deskop cube aswell | 20:35 |
| daklan_schl | mib_upbly9ik: that's gonna hurt | 20:35 |
| Odd-rationale | Alaskan_Dragon: ok. have you enabled rotate cube as well? | 20:35 |
| _Zeus_ | keenscreen: hum... | 20:35 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | keenscreen, i have the 8800 and am having trouble getting it to work right on my games | 20:35 |
| daklan_schl | mib_upbly9ik: it's quite possible you hosed the data in that partition already | 20:35 |
| mralexandro | i was going to download dictionaries for star dict, but some did not work. their file paths ended with .xdxf. those who did work had the ending .dz and .idx and .ifo | 20:36 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, umm let me check | 20:36 |
| amenado | lawnninja-> once you have your raid5 install and configure, you should have chrooted to the new installed system and then re-install dmraid again so it is in the raid5 and not just the livecd(ram) | 20:36 |
| keenscreen | Alaskan_Dragon, can you get nvidia drivers working with it at least? | 20:36 |
| mib_upbly9ik | daklan_schl I already backed it up | 20:36 |
| daklan_schl | mib_upbly9ik: either way, try to recreate that partition again, and see if it gets recognized, and all data intact | 20:36 |
| g0tcha | ejer, thanks for that guide, but it only shows how to run apache and create more websites.. i already done that and apache is running fine | 20:36 |
| hasanibrahim | Hello | 20:36 |
| daklan_schl | mib_upbly9ik: time to reinstall maybe? | 20:36 |
| hasanibrahim | All | 20:36 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | keenscreen, go to system/prefs/hardware drivers and see if the driver ist there for you should be there with a box unchecked enable it and you should be better | 20:36 |
| ejer | g0tcha: you need to create a new website to point the domain name to your IP, or else apache does not know it is supposed to respond to that new domain | 20:36 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, ok got the rotate cube inabled | 20:37 |
| mib_upbly9ik | daklan_schl ahhhh, what I was trying to do, I had old version of ubuntu installed. I wanted to consolidate, and install the latest version with wubi | 20:37 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | Odd-rationale, ok got the rate to work | 20:37 |
| gogzmer | Is there any way to hand-enter, or specify a particular route from host to host? | 20:37 |
| keenscreen | Alaskan_Dragon, theres no box there; i think i uninstalled restricted moudles packages | 20:37 |
| lawnninja | amenado, I had to do that to mount all the partitions when it didn't boot on it's own | 20:37 |
| hasanibrahim | i installed vbox on ubuntu | 20:37 |
| mib_upbly9ik | daklan_schl what I want to do right now is rescue Win2k, and I think I can do that by creating boot floppies | 20:37 |
| daklan_schl | mib_upbly9ik: that's probably not the best thing to do. start fresh with a new install, and copy any pertinent data to your fresh installation | 20:37 |
| lawnninja | that should build a new initrd with the needed stuff right? | 20:38 |
| hasanibrahim | and i couldn't install any driver of OS (Win XP sp2) | 20:38 |
| spo0ner | hey everyone...I jacked up my GUI config by using ATI Catalyst Control Center and can't figure out how to restore everything back | 20:38 |
| daklan_schl | mib_upbly9ik: ah, or a live cd | 20:38 |
| hasanibrahim | help please.. | 20:38 |
| lawnninja | It didn't seem to work so I'm trying to find out if I need to build a new kernel | 20:38 |
| spo0ner | It apparently is ignoring my xorg.conf file or something | 20:38 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | keenscreen, well im on my frist day with linux so we both up shit creek without a baddle LMFAO | 20:38 |
| spo0ner | it was working find until I tried to use the ATI Catalyst contol center to setup dual display BigDesktop | 20:38 |
| amenado | lawnninja-> i dont think so, reloading the mdadm does not recreate the initrd , its a different command to recreate it | 20:38 |

| SebNaitsabes | I rarely bother attempting to theme Ubuntu myself, but I have done so in the past with previous versions of Ubuntu etc, where if I remember it was much easier just download and install it by selecing it into the themeing thing, however with hardy this does not seem the case, and it seems themes aren't using theme files which are the ones that system preferences, apperance would like to use. why does it have to | 20:40 |
| SebNaitsabes | be so hard to theme Ubuntu? or am I just doing it wrong | 20:40 |
| Diaruemnus | as a side note, my BIOS does have support for USB boot devices, and I used to have an x86 Ubuntu install on it | 20:40 |

| bluefox83 | any ideas how to fix the static? | 20:40 |

| bluefox83 | neither alsa nore pulseaudio work for me, only oss works :( | 20:43 |
| daklan_schl | Cheeky: experiment with different audio devices for your sound out setting | 20:43 |

| guntbert | badfish: cd /etc/apt | 21:19 |
| badfish | ah ty | 21:19 |
| badfish | one more question | 21:19 |
| badfish | i opened up universe and multiverse | 21:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sorry out of answers | 21:19 |
| badfish | lmao | 21:19 |
| badfish | sucks for me | 21:20 |
| badfish | i took the # off universe and multiverse | 21:20 |
| badfish | ran sudo apt-get update | 21:20 |
| guntbert | !enter | 21:20 |
| ubottu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 21:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | badfish you then need to sudo apt-get update | 21:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | k | 21:20 |
| badfish | i did that | 21:20 |
| alex65 | somebody told me to sudo echo "id:6:initdefault:">/etc/inittab and that it will make ubuntu faster. I was excited and i tried it but now my ubuntu is weird and reboot by itself. wat should i do ? | 21:20 |
| raz | hrm. i'm trying to install this package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/libevent1 on my hard-box but apt-get says it doesn't know it. anyone know what could be the reason? | 21:21 |
| badfish | now when i do apt-cache search bitchx the only thing that comes up is still pork | 21:21 |
| chubs | alex65, don't do commands if you don't know what they do. | 21:21 |
| kitche | alex65: well first of all your dumb for doing that, and second boot to a livecd mount your partition and fix your /etc/inittab | 21:21 |
| chubs | alex65, your runlevel should never be 0 or 6 | 21:21 |
| HaZ | badfish i think it was taken out | 21:21 |
| Daisuke_Ido | alex65: was it here that someone told you to do that? | 21:21 |
| badfish | alex65: in windows it's alt+f4 that makes it go faster | 21:21 |
| badfish | that would explain it | 21:21 |
| Vezir | hey does anyone know why i can't see anything in /media/ that used to be ther when i was in gnome, now that i'm using kde 3.5.9 | 21:22 |
| kitche | alex65: pretty much you told ubuntu to reboot all the time | 21:22 |
| raz | why does apt-get not see some packages that aptitude sees? | 21:22 |
| alex65 | Daisuke_Ido: No, I saw it on a blog ! | 21:22 |
| kitche | Vezir: probably because kde doesn't use /media for mounting | 21:22 |
| Vezir | where does kde use for mounting? | 21:22 |
| rubystallion | I played around a little with custom kernels, but now I want more time for my other hobbies. So how can I revert to Ubuntu automatically taking care? | 21:22 |
| alex65 | I will try the live cd thing, i am going to download a live cd if i can find one. thank yall | 21:22 |
| chubs | alex65, 3 is multi-user text. 4 or 5 is graphical, I don't remember which one it is for ubuntu. someone else can probably check | 21:22 |

| d4de | Hey guys. When running the ubuntu update manager I'm presented with one package to update: libmirage1. When I try and update it is telling me "You are about to install software that can't be authenticated....yada yada". - Is this something that should concern me? | 21:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jedimind pastebin your xorg but yea, you need that monitor info to be correct.. get a pdf spec on your make and model of monitor | 21:46 |
| bobertdos | lusepuster_: Maybe you should just try reconfiguring gdm orubuntu-desktop.......... | 21:46 |
| chubs | ubuntutlups, if you've got an active internet connection you can try the minimal cd, and download the packgaes as you need them. saves lots of time and is console mode | 21:47 |
| aguitel | d4de, no | 21:47 |
| Reformer81 | d4de: You should be cautious. It usually means it's coming from a 3rd party repository that you've added. | 21:47 |
| jedimind | Jack_Sparrow: when i install the -old drivers, it works fine; and i can set it to 1680x1050 @ 61 hz | 21:47 |
| chubs | jedimind, do the old drivers work well for you? | 21:47 |

| lusepuster_ | bobertdos, one more clue... My wife's account works fine, in gnome, only login to my own account doesn't work | 21:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Goosemoose you cant have home on a windows share | 21:47 |
| jedimind | gf 8500gt | 21:47 |
| d4de | Reformer81: Yeah, I've definitely installed some third party repos but I'm fairly certain they're all reputable ones. Which file contains a list of my repos so I can check they're all legit? And are they the only places updates can come from? | 21:48 |

| Goosemoose | Jack_Sparrow, why not? I'm using likewise-open to authenticate the users against AD | 21:48 |
| keithclark | hmm, envy did not do it for me! I know this card is capable of 3D. | 21:49 |
| Goosemoose | Jack_Sparrow, or at least their documents folder | 21:49 |

| jedimind | monitor resolution settings offers that res, but not the right refresh rate | 22:01 |

| chubs | then paste that to pastebin | 22:02 |
| Glady | what refresh u need? | 22:02 |

| Glady | 60 hz is there | 22:02 |
| jedimind | not for me... | 22:02 |
| bobertdos | lusepuster_: Here are my thoughts: Delete those directories (which should NEVER have done anything to your Evolution, by the way), try sudo dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop and sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm. Also, if you have to, you can create a fresh user account for yourself and transfer your personal data over to your new home directory. | 22:02 |
| brolly81 | i hear sound but my control panel volume does not work | 22:02 |
| starn | anybody know why on ubuntu i can only get a refresh rate of 51hz? but when i am on windows i get 75hz. | 22:02 |
| Glady | thats what I got with the same resolution as urs | 22:02 |
| jedimind | ifi had that option i wouldnt be here | 22:03 |

| CXU1 | there isn't a ndiswrapper equivalent for non-network drivers on ubuntu? | 22:05 |
| jedimind | chubs: however, none of those options are available to me when i go to display resolution | 22:05 |
| lusepuster_ | bobertdos, soddy to bother you but what were the dirs to delete again? .gconf, .gnome2? | 22:05 |
| regeya | that would be incredibly difficult, CXU1, but wouldn't that be nice for those bothersome proprietary pieces of hardware? | 22:05 |
| Rim3nX | Who is the man that I can tell something important about the updates | 22:05 |
| Jordan_U | keithclark: If it does you may just need to install fglrx, AFIK the only reason that mandrivia tends to work better OOTB with some hardware is that they include proprietary drivers by default, but I may be wrong | 22:06 |
| chubs | jedimind, paste /var/log/Xorg.log | 22:06 |
| keithclark | Jordan_U: not a problem. Let me see. | 22:06 |

| jedimind | theres only Xorg.0.log and Xorg.9.log | 22:07 |
| keithclark | Jordan_U: I ran Mandriva under a VM on another machine and it was pretty sweet. Lets see how it does as the primary. | 22:07 |

| bobertdos | roukoun: The version available on the website is more current than the repos anyway. Go to jedit.org and download the latest deb of their development release (4.3pre15). Use sudo dpkg -i <filename> in the terminal to install it. You'll need at least Java 5. | 22:22 |

| roukoun | bobertdos: thanks.... i will use it and i'll tell tou my opinion! | 22:23 |
| tonyyarusso | kabads: hrm... Well, if need be you could umount it and remount manually, or create an fstab entry | 22:23 |
| bobertdos | roukoun: Well, that depends on what you want to do. Usually, the only reason to dig really deep into the filesystem is when you're trying to fix something. | 22:23 |

| bobertdos | brolly81: If you please, we need to know if you've gone into the terminal and tried alsamixer. | 22:24 |
| hewhocutsdown | i'm having a bizarre sound issue too....as in, no sound. nothing. i've tried every combination in the Sounds preferences under System>Preferences>Sound but none of them work | 22:24 |
| Jordan_U | keithclark: Ok, do you see the line # 65 which says Driver "ati"? Change "ati" to "fglrx" | 22:24 |
| hewhocutsdown | they DID work a week ago, and only thing I can think of that changed is that I applied the security updates for the OS as usual | 22:25 |
| brolly81 | i dont know how to use the terminal | 22:25 |
| bobertdos | hewhocutsdown: Have you read the wiki entry yet? | 22:25 |

| brolly81 | commands or keywords or format or anything | 22:25 |
| roukoun | bobertdos: i use text editors as a web developer and my favorite one is bluefish but when you want to modify a file like logs, from the console, then you have to use something flexible and easy to use... so i'm trying to find something like this. i'm using nano for now | 22:26 |

| Scunizi | roukoun: nano works great, gedit for the gui environment.. there's always vi if you can figure it out.. there's others too. | 22:27 |
| JL1213 | Is there a guide anywhere on how to correctly compile and install the most recent Linux Kernel in Ubuntu Hardy (8.04.1) ? | 22:27 |
| bobertdos | roukoun: vi and vim are more robust, but in my opinion they're a bit awkward. You can use gksudo with graphical editors when you're editing config files too. | 22:27 |
| tonyyarusso | roukoun: vim, joe, and emacs are also common options, although frankly I've stuck with nano. btw, if you read the man page you'll see that it can do syntax highlighting. | 22:28 |
| keithclark | Jordan_U: Line is:Driver"ati" | 22:28 |

| rrowell | Previous to my upgrade to hardy when I'd go to "places" then "computer" I'd see drives that I didn't have mounted, cameras that were plugged in, etc, but now I always have exactly 3 entries: cdrw/dvdrw drive, scsi drive (which I can not mount), and Filesystem... Any way to get back the old functioanlity? | 22:44 |
| daklan | mdmkolbe: you can't really get the exact color of something on your screen. the color you see in the screen is controlled by the color scheme, and may or may not be the same as what "screenshot" will capture | 22:45 |
| daklan | mdmkolbe: and even if they are the same, different monitors have different ways of displaying color | 22:46 |

| amt2 | hi, I am having problems with my sound/video. When I use the comptuer after a while, for no apparent reason my videos/sound stop working. It has also happened to me that, say, a firefox active window turns gray, and then it kind of freezes, like if the graphics card were having an issue. Any help? THanks | 23:58 |
| |thunder | Alaskan_Dragon; really, you should ask in #compiz-fusion. they are very knowledgable in graphics. try again, they are there | 23:58 |
| _Zeus_ | mralexandro: whoa whoa? you need an x64 system to adress >3 i think GB of ram. if you have 2gb, you'll be fine | 23:58 |
| _Zeus_ | the other guy is just lying to you | 23:58 |
| _Zeus_ | a high-memory kernel won't fix anything | 23:59 |
| Alaskan_Dragon | ok ty | 23:59 |
