[00:22] Scunizi: I'm looking at expose, but the only options I see are letting me see all the desktops at once [00:22] Aval0n: i don't know why it would matter if sshd is not configured with tcp wrappers [00:22] Is there any way to center the wallpaper on screen 0? Instead of sharing it with screen 1? I'm using twinview. [00:22] Boxici: but for the record, we don't recommend using the root login in ANY form :p [00:22] so the idea is to join the first partition sda1 which is boot with sda2, any ideas is that possible? [00:22] Cheek1, it should [00:22] Huh, nice, connecting to windows shares is just plain not working trough gnome file manager [00:22] hmm [00:22] chuy_max, I'll paste it on the pastebin, just a sec. [00:22] bobertdos: when i try to type sudo su now it gives me " sudo nautilus " [00:22] But it works trough bash [00:22] Phreaks: i really dunno. you should try askin on the jfs mailing list https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jfs-discussion [00:22] Bullshit [00:22] Aval0n: i suppose you can try eliminating that problem first [00:22] what is the easiest way to remove a ubuntu install on a dual boot system? [00:23] Aval0n: and try something else if it still fails [00:23] mylogic: "super e" in expose should show all open windows on one desktop [00:23] chuy_max: ok ..i did it and its installing the hardware ..iis that all you have to do ? [00:23] eido, reformat the partition, or erase it and expand your windows partition [00:23] Boxici: If you want root access to Nautilius, it is best to use: gksudo nautilus [00:24] Cheek1, run glxinfo | grep irect [00:24] eido you just delete ubuntu portion from windows diskmgmt.msc and than you boot with recovery cd and run fixmbr [00:24] Cheek1, if you have something like direct rendering = yes, you are ok [00:24] Phreaks: or even directly on linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org or linux-fsdevel@vger.kernel.org === djhash_ is now known as djhash [00:24] daklan: tyvm I'll keep playing [00:24] Phreaks: writte an email explaining the issue and asking for help [00:24] AbstractScrollLo: I was hoping not to use a recovery cd since this is a eeepc with no disk drive [00:24] erUSUL, thank you ;) [00:24] bobertdos: i understand but what can i do now? i've put a password for root, what can i make to go back to be more secure or something like that.... [00:24] Cheek1, I don't know what's your expertise on linux, but you have to type that in a terminal [00:24] Aval0n: what are the contents of your hosts.allow file again?

[00:25] Boxici: type sudo passwd -l root [00:26] what would happen if I just kill the partition with knoppix and reinstall ubuntu. I installed ubuntueee and do not like the nbr interface and the limited repository sources [00:26] eido, then you'd be happy I assume :) [00:26] so are there any good tools for dvd2xvid? [00:26] guys [00:27] like gordionknot [00:27] Phreaks [00:27] anyone knows how to join partitions in less painfull way? http://paste.ubuntu.com/47607/plain/ [00:27] chubs, yep:) [00:27] would it mess up the mbr? is there something specific about what ubuntu image is mounting as the second? === el_macnifico is now known as ensarman [00:27] bobertdos: i get this when i type sudo su Your account has expired; please contact your system administrator [00:27] and login [00:27] eido, if by mess up you mean remove completely than yes. but if you're reinstalling ubuntu it doesn't matter [00:28] chubs, when i try to mount my compact flash , it says wrong fs type or superblock [00:28] s/than/then [00:28] chubs, the file type is jfs [00:28] hey daklan [00:28] so get this [00:28] if I manually enter the IP into hosts.allow [00:28] it works fine [00:28] chubs he gave up, I'll bet you he wont be reinstalling :) [00:28] when I do the hostname it does not [00:28] Who was asking about alias' earlier? I have a link for you http://www.linux.com/feature/147568 [00:28] but the hostname DOES resolve [00:28] via ping [00:28] Murlis: try gparted [00:29] does hosts.allow not support hostnames?! [00:29] I can't belive that's the case [00:29] Aval0n, dont think so [00:29] Boxici: Please DO NOT use sudo su. Lock the root account by typing what I have above.

[00:29] bobertdos: ok i've done it now [00:29] Aval0n: try nslookup myhosts.com and see if it resolves [00:29] 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] okay [00:29] chubs, mount -t jfs /dev/sdb1 /media/flash1 [00:29] Aval0n, i think hosts.allow & hosts.deny are read before resolving [00:30] djhash: yeah, gparted allows me to delete the boot partition, the question is what heppens after? ;) [00:30] daklan: yes it does [00:30] Aval0n: and btw, i stand corrected. hosts.allow and .deny only works for tcp-wrapped services [00:30] eido, i think there should be a way. I've never used ubuntueee but i'll check the site for you [00:30] chuy_max, Whoa, such a lot lines, what sort of lines are you looking for (obviously related to my VIA chipset)? [00:30] 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] airtonix_: not the case. the ip is resolved before the rules are applied [00:30] bobertdos: sudo: unable to resolve host SyNaPsE === Carnage` is now known as Carnage\ [00:30] daklan: when I do ALL:ALL in hosts.deny and sshd:73.77.77.77 in hosts.allow it works [00:30] Murlis: what do you mean? my response was to your question about joining partitions.. [00:31] bobertdos: ok so from now on i will use gksudo [00:31] If I put the hostname it does not, and yes nslookup resolves to it [00:31] chubs, .. ? [00:31] bobertdos: thank you very much [00:31] and sorry for my english [00:31] Boxici: Okay, go into System->Administration->Network [00:31] every "hosts.allow example" that I find on google is using hostsnames [00:31] Aval0n: myhosts.com resolves to 73.77.77.77? [00:31] yes [00:31] well that's just an example IP [00:31] djhash: please see my partition table http://paste.ubuntu.com/47607/plain/, I want to get join or use sda1 and get rid of winxp on sda1 [00:31] bobertdos: done i am there [00:31] obviously it resolves to something real [00:31] Boxici, here is an explanation on why to use gksudo for gui apps rather than sudo : http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo [00:32] Boxici: Now, unlock it and go to the Hosts tab. [00:32] chuy_max: hey man i did restart my computer and when i did i got a yellow balloon that poped up next to the time .on the right sayinh "restricted driver in use" [00:32] chubs, any idea? [00:32] Murlis:whats your problem ? [00:32] jorrit, maybe look for game, or something like that, sorry but I have never used a gameport, lshw lists all your hardware, and lspci all devices on the pci bus [00:32] Phreaks, run sudo jfs_fsck /dev/sdb1 [00:32] chuy_max: does that mean i works? wats the command you gave me to run.. ? [00:32] Hello. I want to become a Cisco Certified Network Associate, but, the CD that came with that book does not work with Linux, help? [00:32] airtonix_: so you think hosts.allow happens before dns resolving? [00:32] djhash: the best option for me would be to join sda1 and sda2, but other options also would fit [00:33] bobertdos: i am there on hosts tab [00:33] Aval0n: do you have any entries in /etc/hosts that have different values for myhosts.com [00:33] Cheeky, glxinfo | grep irect [00:33] eido, which ubuntu eee are you using?

[00:33] The /etc/hosts/ is default [00:33] Murlis: just delete sda1 and expand sda2 to fill the empty space [00:33] Phreaks: do not paste here. use http://paste.ubuntu.com [00:33] jrgp, sorry :) [00:33] Aval0n: try adding an entry for myhosts.com, change /etc/hosts.allow to myhosts.com and try connecting [00:33] all: I installed winxp on first partion and after installed ubuntu, now I wanna get rid of winsp and use that partition for ubuntu [00:33] Murlis: you might consider making sda1 /home and moving over some of sda2 to make it larger. [00:34] Now, add a host with the IP Address 127.0.1.1 and the alias SyNaPsE [00:34] daklan: I'm sure that will work [00:34] Phreaks, yeah, your cf disk filesystem got messed up. you may have unmounted it cleanly. If there is nothing on it your best bet would be to reformat [00:34] the problem this IP isn't static [00:34] djhash: it doesnt matter if the sda1 is boot partition? [00:34] chubs: http://www.ubuntu-eee.com/index.php5?title=Get_Ubuntu_Eee [00:34] <^Phantom^> srsly, ubuntu is being a pain in the rear <_< [00:34] eido, thanks [00:34] 8.04.1 [00:34] which is why I am wanting to use hostsnames to begin with [00:34] chubs, i have some valuable data on it and i don't want to waste it [00:34] Aval0n: then the problem is somewhere between the translation of the domain to IP, and passing the IP back to the ACM [00:34] chubs, any another way : ? [00:34] <^Phantom^> it won't mount my shared vbox folder, 'C:\ubuntu' [00:35] chuy_max, I tried to filter out the lines that I thought might be useful for perusal: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47608/ [00:35] bobertdos: i've done it, also i have a question: i have a domain name, how can i make it work with my new webserver that i've just installed right now? [00:35] Murlis: just change the boot partition to your linux partition.. you can set partition and boot flags in gparted.

[00:35] djhash: hmm, oki, I will try, hope it works... [00:35] Aval0n: are there entries in resolv.conf that point to your dynamic IP's nameserver? [00:35] chubs, any good channels? [00:36] chuy_max: yeah it says yes ..so i guess it works.. but why is there an icon .. on the top right corner .. still there .. ? === funkyHat is now known as funkyHat|off [00:36] Aval0n: your problem might be translating your domain name to its dynamic IP [00:36] Boxici: Do you need to set that domain name in Ubuntu? If so, that's under the General tab. [00:36] #ubuntu-es [00:36] daklan: most likely not [00:36] Cheeky, what do you mean with an icon?, you are ok, you are using the proper drivers, you can now play games, use beryl, etc... [00:36] <_anthonyc> anyone here interested in writing articles for a slashdot-style news website? [00:37] Phreaks, you could try #linux and ask how to recover a corrupted jfs filesystem [00:37] daklan: if I do an nslookup or a ping it's resolving correctly however === datacrusher is now known as dtcrshr [00:37] I have a question about SSL certificates and Ispconfig - can I use my certificate that I bought for my domain with ISPCONFIG if it is the only website on the ip address? [00:37] I can ssh myhost.com and be fine [00:37] chuy_max: no wat i mean is that .. the icon .. is still present ... the one that mentions about the restricted drivers .. [00:37] Does anyone here have a Toshiba L300? [00:38] Aval0n: my suggestion is to hard-code the domain name into your hosts file, and allow (or block) through hosts.allow [00:38] 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] !ask | nachomania [00:38] 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] Aval0n: or you can hardcode the ip into hosts.allow [00:38] <^Phantom^> it makes ubuntu shine [00:38] but then I have the problem of the dynamic ips [00:38] RomanaMentalis, I have some general knowledge about SSL-certificates, please ask. [00:38] Aval0n: sorry, i forgot the dynamic IP :) [00:38] !anyone | nachomania [00:38] nachomania: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."

[00:39] Does anyone use virus remover 2008 fir ubuntu? [00:39] Boxici: I'm not much of an Apache expert, unfortunately. [00:39] Murlis: sda2 is extended, see if you can change it to a primary EXT3 partition [00:39] RomanaMentalis, You know that such a certificate wil only work for one dhostname, no aliases?

[00:40] \#ubuntu-es [00:41] 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] So its just a popup wanting me to get the virus remover, thats what i thought. [00:41] 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] djhash: no, I cant change the type :( [00:41] right [00:41] chubs, could i ask u 1 more question ? [00:41] Phreaks, yes [00:41] jorrit - ok that's the case, I'm jsut having a tough time lining up the certificates I guess - thanks' I'll keep researching :) [00:41] Cheeky, almost everything is possible, you might have to remove the applet, I'm not using a restricted driver so I can't tell [00:42] RomanaMentalis, Comodo has a really nice CSR-viewer that might help you.

KIIIB is also very nice [00:45] Phreaks, I'm not really sure then, maybe someone else can help you out. it's always worked for me [00:45] harley:try kr3b or nero [00:45] it says insert a blank cd witch there was a bran new cd in and i know it can burn cd's [00:45] Boxici: Romanian?

[00:45] djhash: looks like Murlis sda2 is an extended partition and sda5 is / & /home with sda6 as /swap [00:45] Murlis: what you can do.. is reformat what was sda1 into an ext3 primary and copy the files over (hopefully if the size is not too small) [00:46] Are there any router emulators for Linux?

[00:51] djhash: might try expanding sda5 instead.. not sure if it will work or not.. Murlis [00:51] Murlis: how about formating that extra 20GB, and then just mounting it onto a folder? [00:51] chubs, aha :) thnx [00:51] djhash and Scunizi: I would like to avoid reinstall as I have everything setup and no time for install, I need to work on this pc [00:51] like ive seen people boot ubuntu and open a window that runs XP at the same time without restarting [00:51] <^Phantom^> useless mount command is useless [00:51] bobertdos: AH, think i may have found m problem [00:52] uriel_ a.c you mean a vm [00:52] we will try this [00:52] !vm > uriel_ [00:52] uriel_, please see my private message [00:52] uriel_: you are looking for Virtual Machines [00:52] Is there any gui tool to tweak laptop cpu frequency scaling, like I can do by poking around in /sys ? [00:52] djhash: is there a safe way for me to proceed with the Scunizi suggested change? I mean step by step as Im not very advanced in linux. [00:53] chubs, im using ndiswrapper for my wireless driver [00:53] like this [00:53] hey once i get my iso burnt and installed (hopefully) i have a pentium 4 1.6 ghz with 512 mb ram would i be able to run halflife 2 in wine? [00:53] ^phantom^ i suspect it has much less to do with the mount command than with what you are trying to mount and where :) Which instructions are you using for setting it up? [00:53] djhash: format as ext3? [00:53] Phreaks, i don't use ndiswrapper [00:53] 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. [00:54] Phreaks, did you test the fix? [00:54] harley: This might be better for #winehq, but those are awfully low specs for HL2....... [00:54] chubs, i have braodcom wireless , HP pavilion 6500 ee [00:54] hmmm that didn't work I deleted the ubuntu logical partition in manage under windows, copied eeebuntu to a usb but I get dumped to busybox when trying to boot usb [00:54] chubs, yes i already try before , but no use [00:54] harley, HL2 seems to run pretty good in Wine. It depends if you have a video card that is working smoothly under ubuntu. [00:54] Phreaks, not sure then. sorry, as i said I don't use ndiswrapper [00:54] Murlis: djhash make them all primary partitions .. nothing extended.. it's not necessary unless you need more than 4 partitions on the drive. [00:55] eido, did you copy all the boot files? [00:55] uriel_ running hardy ? [00:55] eido, i thought you were trying to reinstall full ubuntu? [00:55] chubs, what alter drivers i can use? === LSD|Ninj1 is now known as LSD|Ninja [00:56] Murlis: you can format sda1 to ext3 in gparted.. and i'd agree with Scunizi, if its something that can wait, just get yourself another hard drive.. otherwise, trying to change root paritions and then changing mount positions is kinda risky.. [00:56] <|thunder> Can someone please help me add "cd ~/Alex\ Jones/ && streamripper http://www.infowars.com/stream.pls -t 14400" to cron to be run as a user(not root) on weekdays at noon ? [00:56] Phreaks, ndiswrapper uses proprietary drivers, you most likely need to use it [00:56] <^Phantom^> mount is unuseful [00:56] mount isi suis [00:56] chubs: i had an iso of eeebuntu already downloaded so i thought i would give that a try first since it was built to support all the hardware out of the box [00:56] I formated the 20gb as sda1, here is the current situation http://paste.ubuntu.com/47615/plain/ [00:56] im running 8.04 [00:56] now I need to do what to mount it as folder? [00:56] ^Phantom^: Try the PDF here, page 61 has detailed instructions on how to setup a shared folder between a host and guest OS in Virtual Box. [00:56] ^Phantom^: http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/2.0.2/UserManual.pdf [00:56] uriel_ :having a win-vista cd ? [00:57] chubs, should i try network manager? [00:57] ^Phantom^: Are you trying to mount a Samba share? Do you have Samba filesystem installed? [00:57] eido, oh I was under the impression that it was already installed. did you extract all of the files in the iso to the drive? [00:57] <^Phantom^> i have been TRYING that method [00:57] i already have vista buisness installed i just wanna run it like the guy in the vid did exept with vista [00:57] Phreaks, i honestly do not know. try it out, see if it works [00:57] Murlis, what are you trying to do? [00:58] bobertdos: He is trying to share a folder on Virtual box from his Guest (ubuntu) and host (Windows). [00:58] chubs, ok thnx :) [00:58] Murlis: you'll need the UUID of the partition.. type blkid in terminal for all the uuid's of the drives. [00:58] Phreaks, try lspci to see which Broadcomm model is in your laptop. Some models are better supported than others. Try lspci | grep Ethernet [00:58] Scunizi: do you know something about apache? [00:58] good luck [00:58] <^Phantom^> '/me is vboxing ubuntu on winxp [00:58] chubs: actualy now Im not sure anymore... ;) [00:58] help me i do not know how to download using ubunto [00:58] anyone know where the Sources.bz2 package data is stored [00:58] Boxici: a little.. played with it some but not a huge amount. [00:58] or all package data is stored [00:58] <^Phantom^> it keeps saying "unknown filesystem: C:\ubuntu" === wobblyw1 is now known as wobblywu [00:58] Murlis, heh, alright. well let me know if you need help with partitioning [00:58] chubs, i had the wicd working good in 7.4 but on 8 it sux D: [00:59] Phreaks: wicd works fine for me [00:59] not the newer version though [00:59] Scunizi: well i have a domain name for example, boxici.ro and i want to make it work with my webserver that i installed on ubuntu right now [00:59] can you help me with that? [00:59] <^Phantom^> <_< [00:59] notyjoey, it was ok for me too :) but since i upgraded to latest dist , it doesn't :S [00:59] 1.4.2? [00:59] ^phantom^ it's not the name of the folder on your system, it's the name that Virtualbox shows in the bottom left corner by the shared folder (it'd be "shared folder name" or something then the name, in bold... that's what you use [01:00] i have a fresh install of ubuntu and i just finished installing my drivers;i was wondering if installing the “ubuntu-restricted-extra" advisable or should i install my plug ins in a different way ? [01:00] chubs: i used unetbootin to create a bootable usb [01:00] ^Phantom^: not the actual path to it. [01:00] Boxici, is your DNS for your domain setup properly yet? [01:00] eido, and it just dumped you to a busybox terminal? [01:00] chubs: yeah, sure, with partiton deleting and formating Im quite experienced, what I lack is doing it properly... [01:00] uhh [01:00] that sounds bad :) [01:00] uriel_:googel for vmware workstation, i once got a free trial, so you can create an own vm of vista, the player is free but has less functions than the non-free version, also make shure you have approx 10gig of hd and large ram for it === Kabaka[A] is now known as Kabaka [01:01] hmm, my friend is getting this error when running sudo apt-get update [01:01] W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/multiverse/source/Sources.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch [01:01] * Phreaks brb :) [01:01] <^Phantom^> now i'm getting mount point does not exist [01:01] im not sure where the sources.bz2 is so i cant get him to delete that stuff [01:01] eido, did you use these? http://www.ubuntu-eee.com/index.php5?title=Unetbootin_Eee_Builds [01:01] chubs: check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev Alert does not exist dropping to shell [01:01] ^Phantom^: You need to create the mount point locally before using it as a place to mount stuff at, so create your mount point first then you should be all good [01:02] ok thanks will a 2gig ram work? [01:02] chubs: i had ubuntu-ee then i tried eeebuntu just now [01:02] jorrit: i don't know so much about that, you've lost me there, can you help me with this? and explain step by step what i have to do [01:02] Boxici: you're domain name was purchased from someone.. they can point it anywhere you want. The problem is you probably have a dyanmic IP from your ISP. You need to use a service like dynamicdns to track your ip.. 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? [01:03] 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] uriel_:think is alower border for vista, as you haven't got it for hardy nomore, then, don't now about minimal vista specs [01:03] eido, so eeebuntu is giving you that error? [01:03] hi, is it possible to make the text size in a given gtk application be smaller? I'm using Quod Libet, and I just noticed the only thing that bugs me about it -- the text is much bigger than it needs to be! === eric is now known as Guest99849 [01:03] <^Phantom^> again the stupid unknown filesystem [01:03] *know [01:03] ^Phantom^: The path you are telling ubuntu to mount the share folder, needs to exist. [01:03] 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] chubs: yes [01:04] 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] !wtf | ^Phantom^ [01:04] ^Phantom^: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. [01:04] ok thanks [01:04] ^Phantom^: the shared folder setup is very simple i thin you're missing something small, what is the exact command you're typing in? [01:04] ^Phantom^, i warned you yesterday about your language :| [01:05] <^Phantom^> sudo mount -t C:\Ubuntu ubuntu /root [01:05] <^Phantom^> that ^ [01:05] Boxici: try www.whatismyip.com to get your current WAN (external) IP [01:05] lol [01:05] 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 === m_newton is now known as m_newton|hw [01:05] ubottu, hello [01:05] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [01:05] chubs: thanks for the help i think it might just be easier to copy xp to a usb and start from scratch [01:05] ^Phantom^: okay i see your problem! [01:05] ubottu, thanks [01:05] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [01:06] ubottu, i know that [01:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about i know that [01:06] <^Phantom^> i can put up a live feed of the terminal window.... [01:06] ubottu, thats ok no problem [01:06] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [01:06] ^Phantom^: no need for a live feed of terminal window [01:06] <^Phantom^> >_> [01:06] I feel silly, I'm trying to delete files in my ~/public_html that don't belong to me. rm -rf and chown doesn't seem to work, unless I'm missing a switch. [01:06] Scunizi: dynamic IP's are hard to get working for a webserver. Boxici, do you have a more or less static IP or a dynamic IP from your ISP? [01:06] <^Phantom^> i'm so stupid [01:07] jorrit: and Scunizi i have a static ip address [01:07] anyone use synergy with windows for a gaming pc and ubuntu as main? which would i want to be the server? i would think the windows machine since i would want least amount of mouse lag... ideas? [01:07] <^Phantom^> i'll never get the computer career if i can't work a SIMPLE, SIMPLE linux command <_< [01:07] jorrit: Scunizi: google dyndns [01:07] Boxici, is the *external* IP address static as well? 192.168.x.x is internal. [01:07] eido, i think i may have found a solution [01:08] eido, still here? [01:08] * ^Phantom^ pets his cat, Tigger [01:08] djhash: Im preparing backup now, I have external drive (should have done that before), I will copy the home to it and then Im ready for experiments ;) [01:08] ^Phantom^: sudo mount -t is good. the rest is formated wrong. - the "sharename" part is in bold in the bottom right hand corner of Virtual box, if i recall it will start with // [01:08] DasEi, I know that there is sort of a solution for it, but it still complicates things. [01:08] jorrit: no it is with 86 [01:08] ^Phantom^: and the mountpoint part is a folder that has already been created on your ubuntu system [01:08] <^Phantom^> oh? [01:09] \ [01:09] jorrit: do you want me to give you my ip address and check it out? i have this ip address for a long time [01:09] <^Phantom^> ubunyu won't let me create a folder [01:09] ubuntu won't let you create any folder? [01:09] <^Phantom^> oh nvm it did [01:09] hello i'm using hardy and am trying to connect to my wife's vista laptop to place files upon said laptop. is this possible with ubuntu? [01:09] <^Phantom^> k [01:09] Boxici: Not necessary, just checking to see if you have a dynamic or static IP-address on the WAN side. [01:09] <^Phantom^> created folder 'Shared' on the desktop [01:10] Boxici, if it starts with 86.x.x.x, that's quite ok. [01:10] jorrit: i have a static ip address [01:10] ok [01:10] do me a favor [01:10] jorrit: so how can i make it work with my domain name? [01:10] <^Phantom^> "mount point /desktop/shared does not exist <_< [01:11] chubs: yes [01:11] sorry reading [01:11] <^Phantom^> >_> [01:11] try /home/username/desktop/shared [01:11] where username is your username :) [01:11] 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 [01:12] jorrit: so how can i do that? [01:13] <^Phantom^> k got the mount part figured out [01:13] 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] <^Phantom^> now it says the mount name is unknown filesystem [01:13] * ^Phantom^ ughs and starts to give up [01:13] jorrit: ok but can you tell me step by step how can i make it work? [01:13] slew, im quite new to linux my self but i think its possible with a program called samba to share files between ubuntu and vista [01:13] Boxici: Did you already assign a full hostname to your computer? === chrislupo is now known as spoo [01:14] ^Phantom^: show me the command you're typing in again :) [01:14] slew, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba [01:14] Boxici, it is also know as a FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) Host [01:14] jorrit: first of all i want you to know that i am a new user of ubuntu and i installed it today. i don't know so much about all of this [01:14] <^Phantom^> sudo mount -t //ubuntu Ubuntu /home/phantom/Desktop/Shared [01:14] jorrit: you've lost me... [01:14] darren, i agree, i have samba and can ping the laptop but cannot get the shared folders on vista to display in linux. [01:15] eido, http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5061465&postcount=29 [01:15] Boxici, in that case, start by reading howto documents on Apache. [01:15] <^Phantom^> i need to be to the school in like 15 minutes <_< [01:15] slew, like i say im new to linux and have never used samba sorry i can not help [01:15] <^Phantom^> so, i'll suspend my computer at this point and come back when i get home [01:16] thanks darren i appreciate the heads up. [01:16] Boxici, Apache is a nice webserver, but it takes some study to setup correctly. [01:16] ^Phantom^: I'll be here, just ask for me, i'll make a few screenshots and somethin' for ya so we can get ya going :) [01:16] <^Phantom^> k well thanks [01:16] jorrit: when i type my ip address in a browser it shows me it works! === funkyHat is now known as funkyHat|off [01:16] <^Phantom^> bye for now [01:17] slew:ntfs-3g installed ? no firewall on laptop? eneabled file n foldersharing on vista ?

[01:17] chubs: i cant get back into xp to change that file [01:17] eido, take out your flash disk [01:17] jorrit: i don't know but we can try [01:18] i need to do an advertise about skincare & manicures... itś right if i say "i do nails and skin cleaning?

[01:21] everything i google wants me to use bartpe [01:21] Hi there. I might have what some consider a stupid question. If I select in the GDM to use an x session script does that eliminate the overhead of a desktop like GNOME? [01:21] dewente, thats not a question, it's a statement [01:21] jorrit: so what now? [01:22] i am agree with you [01:22] slew:you have to disable vista-fw or least allow hardy-ip, then you could try places>network.... can you see vista-pc in there ?

[01:23] i need a little help with my wireless card connection [01:23] Boxici: www.boxici.ro A 86.126.168.234 [01:23] dewente, in terminal type this : wget https://secure.internode.on.net/webtools/showmyip?textonly=1 [01:23] Emmett, ? [01:23] i have an Intel pro wireless and I can only get it to briefly associate with my ap [01:23] dewente, it will tell you what your ip is as seen from the internet [01:23] ok [01:24] dewente: 192.168.*.* will be inaccessible from the internet as it's not a real IP. [01:24] Has anyone here tried the program PCSX2? Whether it's through WINE or using the source code? [01:24] hola [01:24] farva: which version of the card? [01:24] Boxici: Those records have to present at your nameservers ns3.krond.org and ns4.krond.org for it to work properly. [01:24] i have an Intel pro wireless and I can only get it to briefly associate with my ap. Any takers on helpin me out [01:24] mathias, yes i have tryed it [01:24] alguien español? [01:24] Boxici: ... to >be< present ... [01:24] Was it any good? [01:24] airtonix, i have some ip now.. let me try out [01:25] wat codecs do i need to get my codecs working ? i used .. ubuntu restricted extra stuff package .. the first tme i installed ubuntu and ppl said that it may cause problems with firefox; so thisismy second installation and i was wondering wat if ishould install the codecs in a different way ? [01:25] i'll take a crack at it farva, i've had to solve that problem with my own intel card. which version of the card do you have? [01:25] marina: #ubuntu-es [01:25] jorrit: so i have to change both ns3.krond.org and ns4.krond.org with my ip address? [01:25] 3945? 4965? [01:25] Emmett, those are real IP addresses - just inaccessible over the internet as they are private [01:25] 2200 [01:25] using ipw220? [01:25] thx zeroshade [01:25] yea [01:25] unop: and hence not Internet Protocol. [01:25] Emmett, heh, what do you mean? [01:26] it had to do somthing with a the font in firefox.. but i didnt experience anything [01:26] is it using WEP or WPA? [01:26] or open? [01:26] Boxici: Probably your provider has a nice control-panel for that. It is hazardous to try and edit the zone-tables yourself if you don't know what you're doing. [01:26] i have tried all 3 and same thing but i use wpa [01:26] emma, 192.168.0.1 is a valid IP address. [01:26] hey every one, I have a HP dv4t laptop, I was having sound issues which were resolved using the "pci=noacpi" kernel option, however now I do not have brightness control, I was also thinking of undervolting the processor to get increased battery life, but I believe that I need acpi in order to do that....does anyone know what I can do to get working audio alongside atleast working brightness controls? [01:26] ok, associate with it, wait for it to break. then immediately run 'dmesg | grep ipw' [01:27] airtonix, so.. this ip should be my internet ip ?

[01:32] Boxici: Plesk is nice on one hand, but restricts you a lot. You'll need a license for that. [01:32] yes, using hardy [01:32] hi, why isnt iceweasel in the repos?

[01:33] no [01:33] hi [01:33] DasEi, yes, i can ping her lappy by ping herpcname [01:34] dmoerner: why? [01:34] 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] I'll think about it [01:34] dunno [01:34] what happens in the network manager? it thinks you're still connected? [01:34] Boxici, try this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47627/ [01:34] jorrit: so there is nothing i can do to make this work right? [01:34] 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 [01:35] jorrit: i am talking about the domain and webserver now...

[01:36] got the error? or got network manager showing the break? lol [01:36] hey I installed vlc 9.0.2 yesterday and it can't play a few of my files I installed it with the debian sources and can't uninstall it it says it's not installed [01:36] how would I go about removing it? [01:36] airtonix, i copy that ... how about i am trying make a connection from windows and is givining error [01:36] dmoerner: so what are the considering to do? use iceweasel?

[02:14] 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] zeroshade, don't suggest sudo su .. sudo -i [02:14] Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System [02:14] /dev/sda1 1 14593 117218241 f W95 Ext'd (LBA) [02:14] /dev/sda5 1 1288 10345797 7 HPFS/NTFS [02:14] /dev/sda6 1289 14593 106872381 83 Linux [02:14] unop: his user shouldn't need to use sudo to install to his home directory, right? [02:14] unop: oh. ok thanks [02:15] jrib, errm, depends if the target requires setting things like setuid, etc - but usually no [02:15] evilGUI: What new can't you get as a .deb? [02:16] like coreavc for linux and things like that [02:16] farva: is it working now? [02:17] pianoboy3333: First thing is to be sure you're using the right driver for video, then set monitor specs. If you know what your video card, and what driver you are using that would be a start. [02:17] hi all, Can any one translate this lines into an understandable language to me http://www.pastey.net/96261 [02:17] I used tail -n 15 /var/log/messages [02:17] 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] s, i need to 'mount' that partition, right?? could anyone help me walk through this? [02:18] J-n: I've got a nvidia GT 7600, and right now I have the nvidia-glx-new package installed [02:18] xorg.conf says I'm using "nvidia" [02:18] vinicius, http://daniel1992.wordpress.com/2008/03/02/changing-the-libnotify-theme/ [02:18] I cant make the "pound" sign... [02:19] or "pond" [02:19] knoppix_, you say it appears on your Desktop an Icon of The Partition ? [02:19] watever, that number sign. [02:19]  knoppix_: do you have an external drive to backup to ? [02:19] airtonix: good! but i found a topic on ubuntuforums at least to turn it back into the gnomes default [02:19] My keyboard layout is so messed up, its not even a real keyboard layout [02:19] pianoboy3333: check: glxinfo |grep rendering [02:19] vinicius, same thing i think then [02:19] iFvwm: a bunch of Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".\ [02:19] 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. [02:20] ldiamond_:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a [02:20] 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] i shoudl know this but where would a log be located that shows all my services starting? [02:20] C0L7: which one can't you mount? Have you tried mounting sda5? [02:20] iFvwm: J-n: brb, trying something [02:20] pianoboy3333: the section headed with "Undetected Monitor Specs" [02:20] vinicius, supposedly you can change the colour by changing one of the colours in the system-preferences-appearance-colours [02:20]  knoppix_: do you have an external drive to backup to ? [02:20] 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] airtonix: much better than the ugly ubuntu one at least... that was freaking me out for 3 years.... [02:20] airtonix: humn.. ill look for it... [02:20] DasEi, i bought a 4gb flash usb [02:21] pianoboy3333: check: glxinfo |grep rendering, if you see "Yes" [02:21] knoppix_, DasEi asked you if you have any external drive or medium to backup your rescued files to? [02:21] any way, you can run in your terminal dmesg | grep hdd [02:21] hey guys....new to ubuntu....just wanted to know the keyboard shortcut for launching the cube effect [02:21] iFvwm: he left he'll be back he said :) [02:21] quemo, and dasei, i just bought a 4gb flash usb [02:21] hi every one i have ubuntu 5.10 i know its old but i want to burn a iso and every time i try to burn it its says insert a blank cd im useing black cd's [02:21] J-n: oo [02:21] airtonix: thanks ! [02:21]  knoppix_: you're in knoppix now ? up-to date version (ntfs-support ?) [02:22] or do dmesg | more to see what's the name of your harddrive [02:22] jyotsna, ctrl + alt + drag left mouse button on desktop [02:22] jyotsna: you can configure that shortuct. Look under the menu I told you to install. It's there [02:22] 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] 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] DasEi, someone told me they haven't updated knoppix since 2004, i am running a disk i burned sometime back [02:23] iFvwm: there he is [02:23] anyone know how I can enable a driver that I compiled (got a .ko out of it) [02:23] can some one please help me [02:23] qmemo, it seems to be called hda2 [02:23] does someone know if i can decently and easily (i mean without screwing everything up) downgrade my firefox 3.0 to firefox 1.5 ?

[02:24] J-n: iFvwm: do either of you know how to use the GUI that reconfigures X? [02:24] sweet then (sudo root mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/usb or like I said) [02:24] Rev, forensically the safest way would be to install 1.5 within a virtual machine [02:24] 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] pianoboy3333: you cannot entre X? [02:24] airtonix, i dont have a virtual machine, and i dont intent to install one. does that mean its over for me? [02:25] iFvwm: no I can, I'm on the desktop right now [02:25] 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..

[02:46] airtonix: it's behind a firewall and I don't have access to it at the moment, though I could do that [02:46] 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 [02:47] hey guys im having problems finding the "erase entire disc" option in the installation [02:47] pianoboy3333: so just add some parameter lines into xorg.conf.

[02:47]  pianoboy3333:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg, you can manually generate an xorg (empty) before [02:47] 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 [02:48] 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] 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] Aaron_Mibbit, it's connection abilities are using ssh... so anything you can setup ssh to connect to [02:48] so I'm fighting with a driver for a GE (sonix) Minicam Pro webcam (SN9C103 and ov7630 chipset) [02:48] pianoboy3333: so as DasEi said, you try it [02:48] DasEi it say couldnt find package i renamed it to 123.deb to reduce all the typeing.. :-( [02:48] and I've downloaded a "recent" release driver for it [02:48] that is binary [02:48] and should load [02:48] oh now there's one [02:48] ok [02:48] Aaron_Mibbit, it was the easiest way for me to get gedit running on windows [02:48] knoppix_:yes, thats fine , close qtparted, open a terminal... [02:49] right [02:49] iFvwm: ok now I did the reconfigure, what's next [02:49] but I get an error: dependency is not satisfiable: linix-image-generic [02:49] which I have [02:49] can anyone point me in the right direction? [02:49] Aaron_Mibbit, this was when i was using dapper though [02:49] it also gives me this message [cook @ 0xde0c00]MC_COOK not supported! [02:49] airtonix: ah, i get you now, ssh into the box, forward the X11 ports [02:49] Aaron_Mibbit, ja [02:49] its weird [02:49] pianoboy3333: new xorg.conf here? [02:49] DasEi, does it have to close or can i leave it open to refer to? [02:49] I can run it directly but not through a program [02:49] airtonix: cool, I'll try it when i get home [02:49] harley: cd to Desktop then, first, try ls to see if it's there [02:49] what is the command for findeing out the routers ip? you know... gateway. don't you have something like ipconfig in linux?

[03:34] desaints: its a bug in the nvidia drivers related to twinview [03:34] airtonix: i think that i can make this work... well i am new but i want to learn more... :) [03:34] im using the restricted nvidia drivers [03:35] 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] Boxici, have you ever use dyndns.org before? [03:35] desaints: because iNvidia resticts usage of the driver, sometimes the developement on the opensource end is well, "restricted." [03:35] airtonix: no what's with that? [03:35] elexodus: so i can only get 51hz due to restrictions? [03:36] desaints: it's not really 51Hz [03:36] it just _reports_ 51Hz, which may confuse apps that try to sync to the refresh rate [03:36] Boxici: airtonix I mentioned that 2 hours ago... :( [03:36] 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 [03:37] how do i find my true rf rate? [03:37] 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] desaints: nvidia-settings [03:37] crd1b: where is that located? [03:37] airtonix: but i have a STATIC IP address!!!! [03:37] crd1b: i have been looking for such cp or area [03:37] hi, im having a strange problem, im randomly getting a mounted cd drive i cant unmount it, it also makes my cd drive useless since i cant unmount it [03:38] Boxici, yes its ok, nothing to get alarmed about... [03:38] Scunizi: lol still here huh [03:38] elexodus: i dont know any thing about samba, but ehat do you mean when you say "my ubuntu box" [03:38] desaints: it's a command, you may need to install it [03:38] airtonix: i am not geting alarmed :)) sorry! [03:38] Boxici, have you tried looking on the website of your domain name providor and checking all its help files? [03:38] elexodus: what* [03:38] 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.. [03:39] airtonix: they are pore in that... [03:39] 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] what ubuntu program can I use for ripping a dvd? [03:40] airtonix: i get it now... [03:40] slashzul: I like dvdbackup, but there are many [03:40] slashzul: dvd:rip [03:40] hi, im having a strange problem, im randomly getting a mounted cd drive i cant unmount it, it also makes my cd drive useless since i cant unmount it [03:40] desaints: the package name is 'nvidia-settings' [03:40] slashzul:k3b or nero or... [03:40] I just installed KDE 4.1 on ubuntu and was wondering how to change the window decorations because I don't like the default window settings [03:40] slashzul, apt-cache search dvd | grep rip [03:40] slashzul: acidrip [03:40] thankyou [03:40] slashzul: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DVD::Rip [03:40] jrib, where is the error log for cron? [03:41] I am having a problem with my display settings being saved after reboot. I am using the nvivia restricted drivers. I have to run display-gtkcongfig (or something to that effect) in order to change the settings back when I reboot. It's not that bad as I do not need to reboot often :) what could be causing this? [03:41] craig__: it gets mailed to you, run mutt [03:41] when network manager runs scripts in /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d i have it running a python script which calls libnotify but it doesn't show up. When i run the python script manually it works. [03:41] craig__: or 'mail' I guess [03:41] whats the best out of the box ubuntu wireless card? [03:41] Scunizi: well i have more problems now... for example i don't know if my vga driver is installed... i have to read the linux bible i think:)) i have to learn more about this OS [03:41] !bet [03:41] Sorry, I don't know anything about bet [03:42] !best [03:42] 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. [03:42] isiah, i have broadcom and works fine [03:42] pibe86: Ubuntu box: Slang term used to portray a machine (box) that runs Ubuntu, as aposed to the Vista box (machine running Vista) [03:42] what model? [03:42] Scunizi: what do you think about this ? http://ulyssesonline.com/2007/11/07/how-to-setup-a-dns-server-in-ubuntu/ [03:43] Boxici: well.. if your resolution is ok. then "a driver" is working.. If you're looking for the special effects you'll need something that supports glx. If you have nvidia and you enabled the restricted drivers then you're set. [03:43] isiah: Atheros cards are usually well supported [03:43] i have an atheros card [03:43] nothing but nightmares from it [03:43] I am having a problem with my display settings being saved after reboot. I am using the nvivia restricted drivers. I have to run display-gtkcongfig (or something to that effect) in order to change the settings back when I reboot.

[03:44] isiah: what driver u are using ? [03:44] Boxici: what did you have too do? [03:44] * ^Phantom^ shakes J-n [03:44] Boxici: if you want "behind your router" domain names go for it. If you want access from outside.. well. like we mentioned before.. dydns.com or just point the domain to your ip [03:44] errrr [03:44] isiah: well that deppends on the driver that you use [03:44] TUlimaq: i tried a bunch of stuff i found online nothing worked [03:45] -bash /dev/null: permission denied [03:45] ???? [03:45] hey ^Phantom^ [03:45] * ^Phantom^ whips win98 with a Linux Brand Whip [03:45] <^Phantom^> k [03:45] <^Phantom^> I'm right at where we left off :D [03:45] LinuxKitten: change permissions in nautilus [03:45] ^Phantom^: http://img182.imageshack.us/img182/3306/sharefoldervboxdo2.jpg [03:45] isiah: What model? [03:45] Scunizi: this is my static ip from my provider 86.126.168.234 if you put it in your browser you will see that the server works [03:45] isiah: have u tryed ndiswrapper yet ? [03:46] ^Phantom^: i think that might help :) [03:46] Lets say i am in the root... whats the diff between these 2 commands. find . -name folderName and whereis folderName [03:46] Tulimaq: ndiswrapper worked for me [03:46] Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) [03:46] i can't [03:46] it won't load [03:46] yes i tried ndiswrapper about 4 months ago [03:46] * ^Phantom^ clicks [03:46] ??? [03:46] is it possible to use ssh key generation for all users but 1? [03:47] isiah: after you installed ndiswrapper the wireless card worked? [03:47] Boxici, for now just send an email to your domain name providor and tell them you want your domain names associated with that ip address [03:47] Ububegin: Whereis only looks for files associated with installed applications. man whereis [03:47] so still have one users on passwords [03:47] no i didnt work [03:47] Ububegin type man whereis [03:47] 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 [03:47] inside of nvidia-settings i get error: unable to create new X config backup file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf/backup'. when saving my X configuration file [03:48] desaints: Did you start it with gksudo ? [03:48] no i just ran the program from system [03:48] Jordan_U and J-n : actually, issuing find \ -name folderName seems a bit slow.. actually i wonder whether there is a much faster command [03:49] Ububegin: locate [03:49] isiah: have you tried madwifi? [03:49] Jordan_U: danke [03:49] anyone here have experience with steam and aoss? I can't seem to find any info that actually helps... [03:49] Ububegin: bite [03:49] Boxici: I was planning on trying it tonight [03:49] Ububegin: what are you searching for? [03:49] isiah: what os do you have? [03:50] Boxici: but i thought it would be easier just to find a wifi card that already works [03:50] St0rmcr0w: just in general... [03:50] <^Phantom^> k still not getting it right... [03:50] isiah: Just do System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers [03:50] Boxici: ubuntu, edubuntu [03:50] 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] 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] N4cht: iptables [03:51] Jordan_U: ok i did that [03:51] 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] Ububegin: Then I would suggest 'locate' [03:51] 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] 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] carandraug, .... a little more verbose? [03:51] 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] Jordan_U, they do :( [03:52] Jordan_U, sorry how do i change channels here [03:52] 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? [03:52] Ububegin: there is but not all linux distros have it the command is locate [03:52] cgentry72: /join #kubuntu [03:52] izinucs, that would make me really angry. why the hell would verizon fios do that? lol [03:52] <^Phantom^> wait i think i got it [03:52] * ^Phantom^ places a file to test it [03:52] N4cht: it's the firewall that comes installed by default. You can install a frontend for it. I've read very good reviews about shorewall [03:52] <^Phantom^> Fixed Drives Total:[107GB] Free:[50.4GB] Used:[56.7GB] [47.04% free] [03:52] <^Phantom^> omg i got it [03:52] !iptables | N4cht [03:53] 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] What's a good program to convert large video files? [03:53] N4cht, because part of their agreement with providing you "standard" service it that they will not allow you to run a server.. [03:53] ^Phantom^: Grats :) did that picture help? [03:53] <^Phantom^> i was leaving the vboxsf part out, my bad <_< [03:53] 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 [03:53] <^Phantom^> yes, thankies much :D [03:53] Hey Freetown. [03:53] brb. gonna go sit at the server and try using firestarter. [03:53] N4cht, so you change the port number or buy "business" class service. [03:53] if have a script that uses pynotify but when it's called by Network Manager the notification doesn't show up.

[03:56] LinuxKitten: Maybe it has to do with your caps lock key being broken [03:56] anyone here have experience with steam and aoss? I can't seem to find any info that actually helps... [03:57] whahey just freshly re-installed ubuntu and it looks nice! out of the box! [03:57] asmo[B]: steam, like counter strike steam? [03:57] asmo[B]: Might ask in #wine [03:57] asmo[B]: try PlayOnLinux. [03:58] <^Phantom^> Thank you so very much! ^_^ [03:58] <^Phantom^> N [03:58] elexodus: PlayOnLinux for gaming? or for streaming audio? [03:59] <^Phantom^> Now I can quickly and easily copy files back and forth for modifying in both OSes :D [03:59] * ^Phantom^ hugs J-n \o/ [03:59] asmo[B]: gaming. try Wine (winehq.com) for streaming audio. [04:00] the issue is sound on 2 audio streams... ie; game+music=whatever opened first gets the sound... was directed to use aoss, read up on what I could seemed straight forward but doesn't seem to work :\ [04:01] desaints: ping!! I found an answer [04:01] asmo[B]: have u installed "alsa-oss" ? [04:01] Tulimaq: yes, aoss :) [04:01] <^Phantom^> uh oh [04:02] danbh_intrepid: yes?

I'm running hardy. [04:34] danbh_intrepid: http://pastebin.com/d121c6311 [04:34] jitu3485, tha lag your having is to do with the time it takes to keep trying to resolve hostname that dont match up [04:34] vypadkovyy, do you have a file that is open that is stored on that drive? [04:34] no I only changed /etc/hostname thanks guys [04:34] izinucs no, i've closed everything that i think could be affecting the file [04:34] Amerikan: whats your hostname? [04:34] <^Phantom^> http://pastebin.com/m26b72227 [04:34] vypadkovyy: lsof | grep /media/disk . look for the process that's keeping it open, and either wait for it to exit or kill it manually [04:34] vypadkovyy, work out what programm is still accessin the drive and stop it...try unmounting when you done that [04:34] pibe86: u have Santa Rosa ?

[04:38] daklan, the only commands that came up were bash, lsof and grep. i tried to end every one with "kill ####" but that command only worked on the bash on. all the rest returned "no such process" and i still can't unmount the drive [04:38] <^Phantom^> broken things everywhere :( [04:38] daklan: video like google and megavideo as well === AaronMT is now known as Guest102 [04:38] <^Phantom^> this is really starting to turn out like my win98 vm :( [04:38] vypadkovyy: For future reference, 'fuser' is easier: fuser /path/to/mountpoint [04:39] ^Phantom^: Can you pastebin the output? [04:39] hi [04:39] ^Phantom^: aptitude purge all broken packages [04:39] bye [04:39] Cheeky: you might want to install the non-free flash plugin, and uninstall or disable other flash plugins [04:40] Jordan_U, does this unmount or does it list all processes using the device? === bknox is now known as bknoxx [04:40] Jordan_U, because I saw no output and the problem persists [04:40] vypadkovyy: Lists all processes using the device, and kills them if you tell it to [04:40] daklan: i already installed the ubuntu restricted extra stuff package .. hoping it would work [04:40] vypadkovyy: lsof lists open files, you're looking specifically for a process that's still grabbing on a file inside /media [04:41] vypadkovyy: are there any other processes in the output? [04:41] daklan, no [04:41] 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 [04:42] vypadkovyy: paste the output of lsof|grep /media somewhere, so i can take a look [04:42] hi [04:42] 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] vypadkovyy: What error do you get when you try to unmount? [04:42] that's the wierd thing... i'm no longer getting an error [04:42] * ^Phantom^ watches the screen continue to scroll [04:43] but the drive is still mounted... if i go to /media/drive and ls [04:43] vypadkovyy: Make sure you try "sudo fuser /mountpoint" as well [04:43] I still can access all the files on the drive === AaronMT is now known as Guest46784 [04:43] 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: What happens when you run "sudo umount /mountpoint" ? === Guest55657 is now known as AaronMT [04:44] daklan: i am not that good and setting things with ubuntu as of yet; and i just had to re-install; so how do i do that ? [04:44] Is there any way to use my computer as an answering machine for my regular landline via router? [04:44] Jordan_U, nothing. no error. it seems as if it has been unmounted, but if i cd to /media/disk and ls, i still see all the files in the drive [04:44] and [04:44] if i go into thunar, and select *eject disk* it states that it's still in use [04:44] plouffe: if you have a modem, there is a way, but not via most routers. as far as i know. [04:45] ADSL router [04:45] Cheeky: use Synaptic to uninstall all flash plugins [04:45] 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] thanks for everyones help! [04:45] (even if i didn't solve the problem, i still learned some cool terminal commands) [04:45] vypadkovyy: "sudo fuser /media/disk" returns nothing as well? [04:45] :) [04:45] Jordan_U, right. but don't worry about it. g'night [04:45] vypadkovyy, try again tommorow [04:46] :) [04:46] okay. i think i have my apache/iptables/port forwarding issues all figured out. any chance someone could test for me? http://thewretched.ath.cx:85 [04:46] hello [04:46] daklan: would i pm you if you dont mind [04:46] anybody running pulseaudio and pidgin [04:47] why does it lock up when a sound is played [04:47] how do I change my sound playback from "PulseAudio Sound Server" to alsa? [04:47] N4cht, yep.. works.. powered by e104 [04:47] !alsa [04:47] If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [04:47] sweet.

[04:48] OrangeKyo: No [04:49] <^Phantom^> http://pastebin.com/d53c8695f [04:49] N4cht, I just submitted a new item for review.. :) [04:49] 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] ^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] 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] daklan, i need to experiment more with lsof [04:49] airtonix: tried grepping for the process itself? [04:49] ^Phantom^: You sure that's the link you meant to paste? [04:49] airtonix: see if it lists anything [04:49] <^Phantom^> no [04:50] <^Phantom^> :P [04:50] 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] 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] ^Phantom^: Why? [04:50] 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] I have dynamips and dynagen now, but, want to know if Cisco charges for the router images? If so, where can I get free ones? [04:50] <^Phantom^> so meh [04:51] airtonix: this is similar to your case: emacs 6360 daklan cwd DIR 8,1 4096 1744899 /home/daklan [04:51] if I remove PulseAudio should it default to alsa? or will I have to do some playing around? [04:51] N4cht: I would think so yes [04:51] anyone have a ftp client on hand, I need someone to test and see if my ftp works properly [04:51] emacs is supposed to have /home/daklan/test.txt open [04:51] daklan, yeah i see leafpad and all its open files but the text file i have open isnt listed [04:51] hello, im having a hard time adding an image to the bottom face of my 3d cube, can anyone help me? [04:51] Prose_, sure.. gftp [04:51] Prose_, what's your ip? [04:52] airtonix: which is why it's better to grep for the folder in question (sometimes) [04:52] daklan, maybe leafpad doesnt lock the file? which is why it wouldnt show up on lsof? [04:52] <^Phantom^> http://pastebin.com/d3c51d264 [04:52] <^Phantom^> there [04:52] can anyone tell me the best game in ubuntu?

[04:56] BunTai, i think eve-online has a linux client [04:56] * ^Phantom^ smiles [04:56] owh [04:56] BunTai, i was able to run wow flawlessy too [04:56] <^Phantom^> how much does it cost, and what is it? [04:56] i've had great success with World of Warcraft using Transgaming's 'Cedega' [04:56] airtonix: where? [04:57] daklan: yeah, that's not what i'm looking for [04:57] is there Yahoo Widgets for ubuntu? [04:57] N4cht, results vary across systems, but on mine vanilla wine from ubuntu repos was great [04:57] daklan: i'm looknig for the tool that gnome uses to mount LABEL=foo to /media/foo, for example [04:57] buntai, one sec [04:58] BunTai, explore this website : http://gaming.gwos.org/doku.php [04:58] ^Phantom^: poweriso [04:58] eightyeight: all mounting utilities, whether gui or console, use mount as a backend [04:58] can someone explain to me how to properly install a theme for gnome. I have read all of the instructions for doing this but still what i see on gnome-look.org and what i actually end up with are two very different things [04:58] BunTai, poweriso should be free [04:58] ^Phantom^: the linux version was free [04:58] eightyeight: so whatever you need to do as far as mounting can be handled by mount === AaronMT is now known as Guest83879 [04:58] ok [04:58] daklan: yeah, i'm aware of that. i need to know what gnome is doing specifically [04:58] * ^Phantom^ wonders [04:59] eightyeight: ah, that's a different question entirely [04:59] SchmittyDoesIt, you often find that the authors will make screenshots as an afterthought, or they will dress them up like game companies do with there beta release screenshots... [04:59] airtonix, i ran it on a system with two 2ghz xeons, 512mb ram, and a 128mb video card pretty well with plain 'ol wine. i was impressed. i'm still a fan of cedega's game-specific settings though. === Guest46784 is now known as AaronMT [04:59] N4cht, and i just got bored of wow [05:00] why when I try to remove the PulseAudio package does it want to remove ubuntu-desktop?

[05:00] BunTai: http://www.eve-online.com/download/linux.asp [05:00] sometimes the icons don't change, sometimes thetoolbars don't change... i would like the slickness theme but it only turned my toolbar's black [05:00] BunTai, that site i linked you will have all you need to know about ubuntu gaming...

"info find" for more information [05:03] viktorkAZ, locate is a find utility for terminal [05:03] SchmittyDoesIt, btw all icon packages go in ~/.icons , all theme packages go in ~/.themes and all fonts go in ~/.fonts [05:03] SchmittyDoesIt, back to checking this out [05:03] daklan: i dont want to use terminal.. i mean if there is a GUI program like [05:03] to find files, etc [05:04] SchmittyDoesIt, have you got the font he is using in those screenshots? [05:04] viktorkAZ: oh, sorry. i won't be able to recommend any gui app [05:04] i don't see it. nothing changed [05:04] viktorkAZ: gnome-search-tools? [05:04] viktorkAZ: you'll do better if you practice using command-line, though [05:04] !fonts [05:04] 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 [05:05] 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] I used xchat for my irc... but it doesnt have multi-line input... which irc client has multi -line input [05:05] how am I supposed to know what app is listening to what port ? [05:05] Ububegin: opera' irc [05:05] !themes [05:05] SchmittyDoesIt, ok first thing.

[05:06] daklan: thanks [05:06] SchmittyDoesIt, that file you downloaded, needs to have its filename changed so you extract it properly [05:06] J-N: IM USING XUBUNTU 8.04 [05:06] !storethemes [05:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about storethemes [05:06] airtonix: i did. i adusted the commands accordingly [05:06] SchmittyDoesIt, so, see how it has .gz at the end of its file name? change it so its .tar.gz [05:06] does anybody know in which folder my personalized theme is stored? [05:06] iFvwm: i mean chatzilla (firefox) also has multi line.. but i was looking for a standalone irc client not linked to the browser [05:07] SchmittyDoesIt, what that will do is extract it properly when you use nautilus right click : extract-here [05:07] ^Phantom^: For converting .daa to iso: http://aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz/daa2iso.zip [05:07] Ububegin: irssi? [05:07] SchmittyDoesIt, the folder you get after that, just move to ~/.themes [05:07] 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] omg [05:08] 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] anyone know any good website that walk you through on building a customized kernel? [05:08] viktorkAZ: locate support regex [05:08] airtonix: thanks a lot [05:08] !kernel | geocacher [05:08] viktorkAZ: locate support regex search [05:08] 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] daklan: so something like netstat | grep vsftpd would tell me where it's listening? [05:08] ok it's there [05:08] iFvwm: okie.. will chk it out.. [05:08] airtonix: it's there [05:08] SchmittyDoesIt, i just did what i described and enabled it in the theme manager...i get glossy black panels on my gnome-panel [05:09] SchmittyDoesIt, theme-manager is at system->preferences->appearance [05:09] airtonix: and that is it right? === AaronMT is now known as Guest36200 [05:09] viktorkAZ: oh didnt see Xbuntu - all caps sometimes throw me off . [05:09] Prose_: no, netstat isn't what you need, then [05:09] ls [05:09] airtonix: got it [05:10] iFvwm: what you mean with locate support regex search? [05:10] 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] 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] oh god.. i just want a GUI utility to search my files!!! [05:10] airtonix: no icons [05:10] SchmittyDoesIt, that is correct [05:10] airtonix: ok one sec [05:10] i install tracker search tool.. but its not working.. maybe there is some way to make it work? [05:10] viktorkAZ: if you want more accurary find. locate -r "someregex", will do it. [05:10] Airtonix sorry I missed out on your message, how do I force pidgin to use pulseaudio [05:11] thanks flannel [05:11] viktorkAZ: gnome-search-tools, just try [05:11] SchmittyDoesIt, dont follow his instructions for installing. [05:11] 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] Prose_: i take that back... netstat --listen should give you the output you want [05:12] airtonix: i have the icons [05:12] beagle and tracker are all large things. bad one. viktorkAZ [05:12] daklan: thanks again :) [05:12] 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] Prose_: you're welcome [05:13] What do you suggest I do. Any sounds played through pidgin and it crashes. [05:13] 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 === kiosk is now known as indra_ [05:13] I'm using pulseaudio though not alsa [05:13] AaronMT, not sure sorry, i dont use sounds in pidgn [05:14] hey guys can ubuntu extracy tar files? [05:14] hi [05:14] im a noob [05:14] airtonix: so i extract that to ~/.icons [05:14] 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] harley, yep.. right mouse click and "extract" [05:14] SchmittyDoesIt, yep. [05:15] izinucs thanks ive use manly vector linux soo im a lil out touch with other linux distros [05:15] harley: of course it can. the "tar" command does exactly what you want [05:15] harley, np.

[05:16] 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] harley: my bad. archive manager opens tar files, i think [05:16] how to connect on LCD projector using UBUNtu? [05:17] help me plz [05:17] izinucs: yeah Im working on that, Im not sure what ports my ISP is blocking and Im port forwarding as much as I can [05:17] daklan: ill do that netstat thing now === IamSOGnickused is now known as IamSOG [05:17] Why does top show all my ram as used on a fresh install with just an IRC client and add/remove applications open?

[05:20] SchmittyDoesIt, is that the name of the font? [05:20] ok [05:20] not reboot. just ctrl-alt-backspace. [05:20] BunTai, not good to plug in a dvi or vga thing without the power off [05:20] Razer ya [05:20] BunTai, if you do, X will autodetect the projector, and theres a good chance it will work [05:20] airtonix: woops. i mean, what is that gizmo on the right side of his screen with the clock, cpu and ram montior thing?

I am using 8.04. Cant find anything useful in xorg.conf. [05:40] nope [05:40] !ru | oneal [05:40] oneal: Пожалуйста посетите #ubuntu-ru для получения помощи на русском языке / Pozhalujsta posetite #ubuntu-ru dlya polucheniya pomoshi na russkom yazyke [05:40] how do i mount a usb flash drive [05:41] gord_ the website says by that 1280x800 but i think vista can go past that [05:41] Thanks, Flannel. [05:41] harley, it should mount automatically [05:41] does firefox use gstreamer? [05:41] harley, which version are you using [05:41] 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] Flannel - What !ru ? [05:41] 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] karayan i did before but now it wont [05:41] oneal: This channel is english only, if you want to speak russian, /join #ubuntu-ru [05:41] harley, you need to find out the drive location (sda, sdb, etc) [05:41] ïî ðóññêèé áîçàðèò êòîíèáóòü ? [05:42] and the partition number [05:42] i know its sda [05:42] 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] eg, can I do /etc/init.d/something restart to get my synaptics touchpad working again? [05:42] bobboy, screen size was one of the main reasons why I switched to fluxbox. I'm a minimalist person [05:42] harley, are you sure? I think it will be sdb. [05:42] What is 50 cent ? [05:42] oneal, please stop. [05:42] oneal: Do you have a support question? [05:42] 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] 100% i had it working before when i just plugged it in [05:43] arooni, try installing the nvidia drivers [05:43] <|thunder> harley; did you unplug it with out unmouinting it first ? === lordfdisk is now known as LordFDisk [05:43] bazhang - no ! [05:43] |thunder, yes its 'nvidia' not 'nv' [05:43] <^Phantom^> the permission denied error is probably something from that faulty 8.04 upgrade <_< [05:43] um i think? [05:43] 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] 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 [05:44] <|thunder> harley; you probably did not. and if you, you may have ruined it [05:44] |thunder, yes have restarted [05:44] <|thunder> arooni; thats weird...... [05:44] 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] question [05:44] answer [05:44] gord_, in hardy, the ubuntu folks have modifieds xorg.conf drastically? [05:44] Q: is there a command I can type ... to see what kind of hardware I have ? [05:44] Macrosoft: :D [05:44] bobboy, if you need to scale that image downward then you are not running at 1280x800 [05:44] 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? [05:45] LordFDisk: lspci and lsusb [05:45] 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] harley: didn't work [05:45] LordFDisk, try lspci [05:45] if i have 4GB of RAM should i be running ubuntu 64 bit? [05:45] Flannel, Thank you [05:45] gord_ but ubuntu says i am [05:45] What distro you all use? [05:45] ^Phantom^: You're either doing it wrong, or your permissions are messeed up. [05:45] Razer google nero for linux [05:45] karayan, they did? I never noticed. But I'm stubborn [05:45] brb i need to grab my laptop [05:45] Macrosoft, Thank you [05:45] ^Phantom^: first of all, what command are you using? [05:45] LordFDisk: sudo lshw or gnome-device-manager === kiosk is now known as andara_m [05:46] LordFDisk, flannel beat me to it [05:46] |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] iFvwm, THank you [05:46] 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] When I mount a network share using nautilus, what directory does it mount to? [05:46] ^Phantom^: again, watch your language. [05:46] gord_, I cant find what video driver I am using. All they say in xorg.conf is configured video device [05:46] bobboy, try entering "xrandr" into terminal [05:47] 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] does anybody know how to turn off the nagios web service? [05:47] 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] arooni, besides...64bit isnt all its cracked up to be... [05:47] karayan, You can specify the driver under the video device section [05:47] I installed the apt package, and now the nagios web service is on my server [05:48] ^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] but I can't find any obvious way to disable it, while still retaining nagios [05:48] rroblak, most services can be turned off via the system -> admin -> services [05:48] harley: haha it's playing in spanish audio but no video [05:48] airtonix: I using ubuntu server [05:48] 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] airtonix: do services=init.d scripts? [05:48] rroblak, have you tried using : sudo /etc/init.d/nagios stop [05:48] <^Phantom^> I'm quite frustrated at the moment <_< D: [05:48] harley, he means it should mount automagically [05:48] ^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] ^Phantom^, /join ##windows then [05:49] <|thunder> harley; it should auto mount and be available in the file manager (nautilus) [05:49] Razer hhmmm....im not shere what you can do tghen [05:49] 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] ^Phantom^: You haven't made it exactly easy to help you. But this is off topic for this channel. [05:49] gord_ ok.. im at 1280x800 and max is 1280x1280, says VGA disconnected, says LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 [05:49] gord_, there is no video device section in my xorg.conf [05:49] * ^Phantom^ goes to #vent [05:49] <|thunder> lol [05:49] karayan, can you put your xorg.conf in a pastebin? [05:49] bobboy, the max resolution of your screen will be limited by the linux drivers of your video card. [05:49] idk im gonna restart my system [05:50] harley: I'm using Brasero, why does every linux have a problem with everyday things [05:50] airtonix , so what do i do, i have an intel GMA x3100 [05:50] 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] he could have tried running gparted or something first [05:50] bobboy, lots of investigation and imploring to your hardware vendors [05:51] <^Phantom^> k i'll try this again [05:51] 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^> DANGIT [05:51] * ^Phantom^ kicks his clipboard :( [05:51] ^Phantom^, use sudo [05:51] No, don't use sudo. [05:51] pidgin randomly crashes, is there a fix for this at all? [05:51] bobboy, I'd recommend you leave it at 1280x800. Make sure you have the appropriate drivers installed for your video card [05:52] sudo chown /stuff [05:52] * iFvwm funny ^Phantom^ [05:52] rob__, Depending on what is causing the crash, most likely there is [05:52] even my pidgin and firefox crash randomly [05:52] 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] ^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] hi there i got a serious problem [05:52] gord_ where can I find the source of it? [05:52] Macrosoft: no, that's not necessarily right either. === craig__ is now known as cwraig [05:52] my Firefox does not execute. [05:52] gord_, please chech this http://pastebin.com/d1d7612c9 [05:53] xtrememertx: perhaps you can try opera instead of firefox. [05:53] bobboy, bu i forget what that command is since inow have a nvidia 8800gt [05:53] rob__ you can try running an strace on it, have it pipe its output to a file for later viewing and find the critical errors causing the crash [05:53] can some please be kindfull and help me. [05:53] i love firefox [05:53] karayan ... [05:53] i like opera [05:53] how do i run a strace? [05:53] rob__ "strace pidgin 2> errortrack.txt" , or something like that [05:53] ifvwm, yea i was thinking of that [05:53] gord_ how can i check if i have the proper drivers install for my video card? [05:53] sorry i got 2 hours on Ubuntu [05:53] then just run it as usual until it crashes [05:53] but i'm planning to move on to windows [05:53] i have no oteher option :( [05:53] ubuntulups, yes [05:53] ubuntulups, i wish i hadnt upgraded to 3.0.1, it segfaults all the time and other weird crap [05:53] . [05:54] airtonix , so that proggie will help me? [05:54] i cant watch vidoes or play games :( [05:54] i updated to i dont know version [05:54] i follow so many tutorials that i dont know what i have done [05:54] 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] bobboy, in a debug kind of way yes....it may have just been the cat command used on the right /dev path [05:54] xtrememertx: of course, video, game, important thing [05:54] how do i put a terminal on hotkey? [05:55] Can anybody help me out, I can't get my wireless card working in Ubuntu [05:55] bobboy, you should examine the post made by tselliot on the ubuntuforums [05:55] xtrememertx: but why need windows [05:55] bobboy, posts* [05:55] ubuntutlups: That's not a good place to be. We can't really help much with software that you got outside of the repos. [05:55] i'm getting low fps on ubuntu [05:55] ubuntutlups, if its working i would just leave it as is, no need to have to beta version [05:55] ubuntutlups: Especially if you aren't sure what you've done. [05:55] SchmittyDoesIt, alt + f2, then type : gconf-editor [05:55] SchmittyDoesIt, I believe gnome has its own hotkey program, but xbindkeys is a more classical solution [05:55] u were there yesterday right ? [05:55] i cant run firefox [05:55] <^Phantom^> i need to be typing this in terminal, right? [05:55] ^Phantom^: yes [05:56] ubuntutlups, any error message [05:56] xtrememertx: yes, but i forgot sth. [05:56] ? [05:56] Can anybody help me out, I can't get my wireless card working in Ubuntu [05:56] ok thanx [05:56] commands you recieve here will 99% of the time need to be in a console [05:56] SchmittyDoesIt, navigate to : apps -> metacity -> keybinding_commands [05:56] oh [05:56] (whenever they cant be done using a run dialogue) [05:56] ^Phantom^: and in the directory with poweriso, and the .daa file (if you were to use those command directly) [05:56] -.- [05:56] anyways even a small avi file is laggy :( [05:56] xtrememertx: so sad [05:56] can some one take 5 minutes [05:56] ubuntutlups, what did you mean you cant run firefox? can you give more detail? [05:57] 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] SchmittyDoesIt, actually (close all that ) easier way is : system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts [05:57] on once i click on the firefox icon it says Failed to execute child process "firefox" (No such file or directory) [05:57] 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] SchmittyDoesIt: need keybind? xkeybinding is good one. [05:57] SchmittyDoesIt, scroll about 1/3 the way down till you find " Run a terminal" [05:58] !wifi | tony_ [05:58] tony_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs [05:58] gord_ how would i find such drivers? and if i have them installed? lol [05:58] SchmittyDoesIt, you can set your keybind to open a term there [05:58] airtonix: excellant [05:58] ubuntutlups, open a terminal window and type firefox, it might give some more info [05:58] gord_ i tried using i810 and intel drivers .. i cant even watch youtube or play simple games like bzflag [05:58] physically_fit: I've tried that already [05:58] airtonix , im looking at his posts now [05:58] bobboy, try "lspci|grep video" [05:58] SchmittyDoesIt, the gconf way i was about to lead you through is for other keybindings you cant find in that simple gui [05:58] ubuntutlups: did you unpack the tar.gz?

You can install it by typing: [05:58] sudo apt-get install firefox [05:58] bash: firefox: command not found [05:58] xtrememertx, what is the card and what drivers are you currently using? [05:58] airtonix: and you know i like simple [05:58] I'm trying to put a bunch of files into a tarball, but I can't get it tarred. Anyone got an idea? [05:59] gord_ comes up blank lol [05:59] gord_ integrated i810 chipset [05:59] but i just installed it [05:59] xtrememertx: nnn, i remember sth, but not skill at intel video card. [05:59] look this tutorial please. [05:59] ubuntutlups, yeah, if you run that command it gave you it will download and install it for you [05:59] 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] mmm.. i cant execute FFX [05:59] bobboy, probe "lspci" yourself then, check for things that might resemble a video device [05:59] the list wont be that long [05:59] Greetings Friends, I created a hello world program in C, when I compile it using CC hello.c and then ./a.out its works fine but today I installed Geany and then when I clicked Compile its showing some kind of error [05:59] ubuntutlups, run sudo apt-get install firefox in a terminal [06:00] <^Phantom^> i can't understand why i'm being denied permission to modify MY files [06:00] i have been trying to get it run properly for about a month now [06:00] ^Phantom^, what files specifically?

[06:10] Does anyone here know anything about raid and setting it up with mdadm [06:10] Cyb3rAssasin, an OS [06:10] ubuntutlups, you could try "sudo apt-get install firefox-gnome-support" but i doubt it will help [06:10] favro, what do you think? [06:10] really? who knew? [06:10] gord_ if you look at the pastebin, http://pastebin.com/d596ae7d0 , it looks like it installed the right drivers.. in wikipedia it says it is those ie GL960 and GM965 [06:10] Cyb3rAssasin, this is the support channel; #ubuntu-offtopic for chat [06:10] :'( [06:10] okay [06:10] ubuntulog: change your source.list [06:11] i dont understand why... [06:11] ubuntutlups, open a terminal [06:11] i think ill just move to windows [06:11] brolly81: not much to go on - can you paste your /etc/fstab file? [06:11] !paste | brolly81 [06:11] brolly81: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [06:11] ~~ [06:11] gotta format my hard drive again :'( [06:11] ubuntutlups, help in ##windows then [06:11] :D [06:11] i did open the terminal [06:11] 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] what do i do now ? [06:12] ubuntutlups: What happens when you try to run "firefox" in a terminal? [06:12] ubuntutlups, you still here? [06:12] i dont know how to run FFX on a terminal [06:12] ubuntulog: if you know how to open ssh. we can help you. [06:12] ubuntutlups: type "firefox" and hit enter [06:12] ubuntutlups, you simply type "firefox" and hit enter [06:12] i get 148gb media on my desktop [06:12] ubuntutlups, its just "firefox" === AaronMT is now known as Guest37391 [06:13] i remember sometime, fx is "firefox-3.0" [06:13] I think that's when 3.0 was still in beta [06:13] I may be wrong [06:13] favro, what the command so i can get that info [06:13] ? [06:13] gord_ alright thx man [06:13] perhaps [06:13] iFvwm, he just installed the non 3.0 verion [06:13] ooo [06:13] brolly81: gedit /etc/fstab [06:14] 2.whatever-it-used-to-be [06:14] ubuntulog: so learn how to open ssh first. [06:14] Macrosoft, ancient software [06:14] or learn open vnc [06:14] brolly81: it's just a system file - you can browse and open it [06:14] bobboy, no problem [06:14] all things will be done, while you sleep. [06:14] ubuntu gods i need some wireless help, anyone knowledgeable in linksys wmp54g cards?? [06:15] iFvwm, what will? [06:15] maybe someone here can help him thr ssh [06:15] erat123: Do you know the chipset? [06:15] erat123 there are probably several ubuntu forum threads on the subject which would be easier to find than the random change that some one here knows the driver/ndiswrapper driver to use [06:15] chance, even [06:16] can i ssh into a box when no user has logged in yet? (i.e. login screen shows) [06:16] arooni: Yes [06:16] arooni: yes [06:16] there may be a restricted driver for it === daklan_hmw is now known as daklan [06:16] of course [06:16] arooni: ssh is logging in (even before the login screen shows, actually) [06:16] theres one for my atheros [06:16] http://paste.ubuntu.com/47662/ [06:16] What is the diffrence between the 8.04 desktop and server editions? Could one just upgrade to server via packages or should one just grab the server edition? [06:16] how to install a tarbz file to ubuntu? [06:16] J-n: yep. The difference between any flavor/edition is just the default packages installed. [06:17] i can browse and open it but i cant move files, movies or anything into it [06:17] Flannel, ssh: connect to host 192.168.0.103 port 22: Connection refused ... shows ... though i'm pretty sure thats the box's ip address ( i cant get x to start so i'm trying to debug from another comp) [06:17] J-n, i think server is less gui and more utilities [06:17] J-n: you can turn one into the other (or add one to the other, etc) without any trouble [06:17] i want to use it as my download spot [06:17] dude this is soo not cool i cant get my falsh drive to work my sound to work flash player,java omg [06:17] arooni: try ctrl-alt-f1 on the original computer (with the issues) [06:17] Flannel: Cool, i figured as much but.... being lazy i figured i'd ask lol [06:17] http://paste.ubuntu.com/47662/ [06:17] gord_: thanks for the comment. i understand that ubuntu ships w/ the needed drivers and ndiswrapper is not necessary for this card. ubuntu recognizes it, but i cant get it to connect. i'm running an lsusb command now to find out info... [06:17] Flannel, no results; it looks forzen :( [06:18] favro: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47662/ [06:18] what's the best way to disable an init script on ubuntu server? [06:18] harley, have you tried using it on another machine to make sure the drive isnt the problem [06:18] ? [06:18] rroblak: update-rc.d
