[01:49] <mathiaz> dendrobates: what do you think about moving partman-auto-raid to main ?
[01:49] <mathiaz> dendrobates: that way RAID installation could be preseeded.
[01:50] <dendrobates> mathiaz: I think that is fine.

[08:14] <sander__> Hello everyone
[08:14] <kgoetz> allo
[08:14] <sander__> ive set up share folders on two ubuntu systems but as yet all they see is the windows computer.
[08:15] <sander__> i want to share deb files from one ubuntu system to the other
[08:15] <kgoetz> what sort of share?
[08:15] <sander__> folder
[08:15] <kgoetz> ...
[08:15] <kgoetz> smb/nfs?
[08:17] <sander__> ok in nautilus I right clicked the folder i wanted to share clicked 'properties' and then 'share' clicked all three boxes and then the 'share' button. samba was downloaded and installed
[08:18] <sander__> i also rebooted after that
[08:19] <sander__> oh and im running hardy heron
[08:19] <kgoetz> this is an #ubuntu question, not one for -server
[08:20] <sander__> well i gathered that server would mean networking
[08:20] <sander__> lets say i wanted my second ubuntu system as a server
[08:21] <kgoetz> when its running as a server, come and ask again. while its a 'i clicked in nautilus' question, its not relevent here
[08:21] <sander__> meh
[08:23] <kgoetz> sydneysiders.
[08:26] <\sh> did anyone tested heartbeat2 (but with V1 config style) together with bonding interfaces? I have a problem with it, that heartbeat doesn't recognize when all cables are removed from the NICs and kernel just saying: "ok, bond interface doesn't have any active net connections anymore"...
[08:43] <ghaleb>  hello, how can I print a list of directories and the size of each one ?
[08:43] <_ruben> dh -h *
[08:43] <_ruben> df -h *
[08:43] <_ruben> (fat fingers)
[08:53] <\sh> df -h is more on filesystem basis....
[08:56] <\sh> ls -ladh * lists all directories from . including human readable sizes....
[08:59] <\sh> and "find  / -type d -exec ls -lhd {} \;" just prints all directories in longformat + human readable sizes
[08:59] <\sh> or "find  / -type d -exec ls -shd {} \;" just prints all directories in short format + human readable sizes (like: 4.0k <dirname>)
[09:33] <Roy_M> Hi I am trying to configure westwood congestion control on ubuntu server. You do this by just changing the name in this file /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control . The problem is that for some reason, even running as root, it says that I do not have permission to modify this file. Does anyone here have any experience with this?
[09:39] <_ruben> Roy_M: how are trying to alter that 'file' ?
[09:41] <Roy_M> _ruben, I have tried modifing it with vi and also doing echo "westwood" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_congestion_control
[09:43] <_ruben> /proc entries being 'special', vi tends to no work .. with echo you'd need to do echo "westwood" | sudo tee /proc/....
[09:45] <Roy_M> _ruben, that seems to work, what is special about this file that requires tee?
[09:46] <_ruben> its not the file that requires tee .. when doing 'sudo echo blaat > /some/file', the echo is done as root, but the output redirection is done by your own unprivileged user
[09:46] <_ruben> using 'sudo tee' works around that
[09:47] <Roy_M> ahh, well thanks a lot for your help _ruben
[09:47] <_ruben> no problem
[09:58] <didrocks> jdstrand: around?
[11:22] <esbek> hi
[11:23] <esbek> what cpu's are supported by ubuntu 8.04 standard linux-image-server kernel?
[11:25] <esbek_> is Celeron D 215/220 (1.2GHz) supported?
[11:33] <hads> Should be fine.
[11:36] <esbek_> thanks
[12:08] <ghaleb> hello, I want to backup 200 GB into 40G tapes using cpio, how can I make parts or multiple tapes ?
[12:13] <henkjan> ghaleb: http://linux.ncl.ac.uk/backup/
[12:13] <henkjan> ghaleb: see the 'backup on cdr' part
[12:14] <henkjan> its about splitting your backup into volumes of 650Mb. Its easy to take that script/oneliner and modify it for your usage
[12:19] <ghaleb> henkjan: thank you
[12:50] <esbek_> how to switch computer to use grub? or standard ubuntu kernel? i have slightly modified ubuntu (by ovh) with 2.6.24.5-grsec-xxxx-grs-ipv4-32 kernel and lilo ; installed grub, but system still uses lilo
[12:50] <esbek_> sorry for my english :(
[13:08] <soren> esbek_: ovh?
[13:12] <esbek_> ovh.com - french hosting
[13:13] <esbek_> ubuntu 8.04 lts distro that they install (choosen in their web manager) is modified that way
[13:25] <sommer> morning
[13:45] <ScottK> esbek_: Ubuntu uses grub normally, so if it's using lilo, that's something they've changed and you'll probably have to ask them.
[13:46] <esbek_> :(

[16:11] <mathiaz> zul: samba 3.2.4 has been realeased - only a bug fix apparently.
[16:12] <mathiaz> zul: should we try to get it into intrepid ?
[16:12] <mathiaz> zul: I'm not sure if debian will take it.
[16:12] <RediXe> Anyone have success installing the DMS KnowledgeTree on 8.04 server?
[16:13] <ScottK> Since Debian is in freeze for Lenny, we should probably worry about will they take it less than usual.
[16:13] <Lamba> (joined at request from #ubuntu-motu)  - where would be the right place to request deb rolling of some code ? ebox has a deb in ubuntu repos together with a few of its modules, but ebox svn has code for other modules.
[16:13] <mathiaz> Lamba: foolano is using a PPA IIRC
[16:14] <mathiaz> Lamba: you may wanna ask him about it - (he is one of the ebox dev).
[16:14] <Lamba> yea but i bugged him enough today about ebox coding :)
[16:17] <zul> mathiaz: yeah we should according to the changelog Ive asked slangasek about it
[16:19] <zul> mathiaz: ill poke it with a stick this afternoon
[17:17] <RediXe> Anyone have success installing the DMS KnowledgeTree on 8.04 server 64 bit?
[17:35] <RediXe> Trying to install a filename.bin and I chmod +x and then run it but it doesn't do anything. No errors just puts me on a fresh line. Ex: $sudo ./file.bin [enter] $
[17:36] <RediXe> Is there any way to figure out what the issue is?
[17:37] <sommer> RediXe: what kind of file is it?  try file filename.bin
[17:39] <RediXe> sommer, it's the knowledetree stack installer. On the site it says to run the chmod +x and then to run ./file.bin ... if I just try file.bin I get command not found
[17:40] <RediXe> sommer, tried file file.bin and I see ELF 32-bit LSB executable ... i'm trying to install on 64-bit server
[17:40] <sommer> RediXe: that would be an issue... you'll need a 64 bit install file, or install knwoledge tree on a 32 bit system
[17:41] <RediXe> guess I have to try and install from source :(
[17:41] <sommer> RediXe: that'd probably work too
[17:42] <RediXe> sommer, Yeah I thought the bin would work for both 32 and 64 but guess not
[17:42] <_ruben> installing ia32-libs *might* help
[17:42] <RediXe> _ruben, I can give it a shot
[17:45] <RediXe> _ruben, Woot that seems to have helped it along :) .. got "Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file" but seem's to be just font issue nothing important??
[17:52] <_ruben> sounds warning'ish
