dr_willisdelilaz,  they have to be in the right sudoers list and groups.00:00
dr_willisI think theres a gui user admin tool that can enable that.. but i dont rember where.00:00
delilazwouldn't that mean to give the new user sudo power? which I don't want to do00:01
bdheemanHow is about I install the beta right now and update/dist-upgrade it after a stable release comes up00:02
delilazIs there a command that the root user can use to update apt in another user??? Anyone know?00:05
dr_willisI tend to just wait a week or 2 after the release and do clean installs. :)00:05
dr_willisLess of a hassle thta way00:06
bdheemandelilaz: create group and allow only a set of commands to this groups in the /etc/sudoers00:06
bdheemandr_willis: you are right00:08
Nythainquick problem... in intrepid, im trying to change my refresh rate from 85 to 75, and every time i do, it defaults to "auto" and stays at 85, any suggestions???00:09
delilaz Is that done through System Settings? I'm still learning this OS :)00:09
Nythainyeah, system settings --> display00:09
Nythainbut like i said, it just sets it to "auto" and stays at 85 :(00:09
dr_willisHmm...00:22
dr_willisThis is a CRT monitor or LCD?00:22
NythainCRT00:22
dr_williscould be its thinking the crt cant handle 85, and you may need to put in a proper modeline in the xorg.conf00:23
Nythainwell, it handles 85, just wont switch to 75... xrandr tells me its supported, and even when trying to set it manually in xorg.conf it keeps defaulting to 8500:24

=== sgallinger is now known as splooge
_2three things about ubuntu linux i don't like.   1. the installer is bloated.  supose i want to install on an older box with only 128m ram.    2. the release cycle expects everyone to have a bzillion terabytes of bandwidth to dl a new cd iso worth of data each day.   3. they try to hard to make the "reboot will fix anything" crowd feel at home. (i.e. linux != M$  never has, never will, and, we don't want it too, so stop trying.)   <01:55
=== yurimxpxman is now known as Darth_YuriMxPxMa
=== Darth_YuriMxPxMa is now known as Darth_Yuri
Daisuke_Ido_2: 1. alternate install is great for those with limited ram, but to be honest, an amount of ram like that would be better suited to a distro like DSL or Puppy Linux.  2. That's what LTS releases are for, three years of security updates on the desktop.  3. Agreed, though I rarely even need to reboot aside from a kernel update02:06
_2Daisuke_Ido why so.  i hardly ever use that much ram from a console ?02:07
Daisuke_Idofrom a console02:07
_2yep02:07
Daisuke_Idoubuntu is by its very nature a graphical distro02:07
_2nope02:07
_2it's linux.02:07
Zorixhow does everyone like kde 4 so far in intrepid?02:08
_2or should i say GNU/Linux02:08
Daisuke_Idoit's a linux distro aimed at the "everyday" user, which is a group (a majority) that uses a graphical environment02:08
_2<Daisuke_Ido> ubuntu is by its very nature a graphical distro <<< sounds very "reboot will fix anything" oriented02:09
Daisuke_Idono02:09
_2Daisuke_Ido answer me this.   if it's so gui oriented why are there 7 active tty's on your box and only one of them has a gui in it ?02:10
Daisuke_Idobecause the everyday user has no need for seven different guis02:10
=== Darth_Yuri is now known as yurimxpxman
_2so why are the other six running ?02:10
_2:)02:10
Daisuke_Idowhich is why it activates the one that HAS a gui by default02:10
=== diego is now known as Guest24844
Daisuke_Idofor those that choose to use them.02:10
_2exactly02:11
kalorinsorry I'll take the gui any day02:11
Daisuke_Idoif you choose to use them, you're provided for, but not necessarily the target audience02:11
_2so it's not "by its very nature a graphical distro"   it's simply GNU/Linux02:11
kalorincommand shells are easy to open and it's nice to be able to see them side by side02:11
kalorinthat alone makes the gui >>>02:11
Daisuke_Idoif you prefer a straight console install, use the server install, which also takes care of the ram limitation02:11
kalorin_2: I agree, linux is linux, X by it's nature is GUI02:11
Daisuke_Idoi find it interesting that you continue to quote the original, and not revised statement02:12
Daisuke_Ido[21:08:01] <Daisuke_Ido> it's a linux distro aimed at the "everyday" user, which is a group (a majority) that uses a graphical environment02:12
* _2 looks for the revision02:12
_2oh was that a revision ?02:13
_2ok.02:13
Daisuke_Idooi02:13
_2i thought that was supposed to be an explanation.  sorry, my bad.02:13
_2Daisuke_Ido will the server installer in hardy run in 128m ?02:14
Daisuke_Idoit's basically debian's text-based installer02:15
Daisuke_Idono reason it shouldn't02:15
_2i thought they said the minimum was 192 now...02:15
_2because of extensive use of ramfs or somethin.02:16
Daisuke_Idoi know the livecd uses a ramdisk, but i don't think the alternate installer does02:16
Daisuke_Idobut don't quote me on that02:17
_2hmmm i may be misinformed on that.  i'll do some research.   i know that 64m was not enough for hoary02:17

kalorinI can get to the port and others using the windows client can02:18

kalorinis there a log for the knetworkmanager vpn connections that I can see what's going on there?02:19

mario_A camera storage is much like a usb pendrive filesystem isn't it?05:28
mario_has anybody used a projector or beamer with (k)ubuntu05:29
DaskReecHmario_: I'll hazard a wild guess and say yes05:30
mario_daskreech: it's kind of messy cause normally they have a lot less resolution than a screen05:31
bdizzleyes, it is05:32
bdizzlefor a temp fix, I just took out the SD card and put it in the SD card slot05:32
DaskReecHmario_: So you need dualhead controls?05:34

geremywell, my only remaining suggestions would be to get an ssh client on the server, generate an RSA keypair there, add the rsa pubkey to your .ssh/authorized_keys, then copy the id_rsa file to your laptop06:22
geremyits a backasswards way of doing it, but it will work06:22

dfaureis it a known bug that the numeric keypad doesn't work in vim-in-konsole? (works everywhere else though). I get newline+letter instead of a number there.12:52
dr_willishmm12:53
dr_willisYou may want to try the 'vim-full' package, the default vim-tiny - may have some limits12:53
* dfaure closes his eyes on the fact that this installs vim-gnome ;)12:54
dr_willisbecause its working here fine.. I always install the vim-full package first thing however.12:54
dfaurehmm I see, it's due to kde4-konsole. Works ok in kde3-konsole.12:54

dfaurethat's your choice, I'm just saying that I'm interested in any filemanager crash you find in 4.1.2 or later.13:01

peacecan anyone teach me how to unrar..i have a hard time with it...again :D13:15
Tm_Tpeace: use ark13:15
dr_willisunrar e file.rar13:16
dr_willisi belive13:16
dr_willisor install and use 'unp'13:16
peaceunrar x filename works.. if i unrar a thing that has many parts..then the unrared stuff has the size of the part.. example 15mb... thats lame...and ark doesnt work with .rar13:16
dr_willisif you install the proper rar packages - ark should work13:17
* dr_willis is not clear on what peace said about the 'parts' stuff...13:17
geekdr_willis: multipart archives13:17
peaceif i would have installed the proper rar packages..then i would have succeded. what packages are for ark to unrar rars? :)13:17
dr_willisive unrar'ed multipart archives just fine13:17
dr_willisI belive you want to use e, not x.13:17
geekpeace: unrar-nonfree works with arc for me13:17
geekark13:18
dr_willisor it may depend on the archive13:18
peacei think i installed both..nonfree and free unrar13:18
peaceeh..13:18
dr_willisI think the 2 may have some differnt command line options also13:19
peacein adept..yes rar is installed..in synaptic...unrar and unrar free is also installed13:20
peaceany other advice?13:21
peaceok..i managed somehow.. for the love of god please remember to advice to those who gets same problem... ( to select all rars and check them as executable ) this solves the mistery of suffering :|13:29

BluesKajKosmofield, there's an issue with K3B and KDE3 , for some reason the libk3b3 upgrade needs kde4 not kde3 ,... why this is so is a mystery to me.14:49
NikLPghostcube: not sure what you mean about php restrictions there mate?14:49
ghostcubelook on google u can disallow many php functions only needed for exploiting an xss14:50

compilerwriter2OK you gurus out there I started up an internet update to the Ibex last night.  Somewhere in the middle of the mess my dsl connection took a crap.  I now have a machine that will only boot into single user mode.  I have a usb stick installed on the back that I want to use to backup my data and then I will do a cdrom clean install.  How do I get the blasted usb stick mounted? I can't remember how manually mount an17:12
Picisudo mount /dev/devicename /media/mountname17:12
compilerwriter2pici what should I call the thumbdrive in devicename?17:13
compilerwriter2pici I am doing something wrong it says that mount point doesn't exist.17:15
=== darlio is now known as XMan
Picicompilerwriter2: no, you need to create the mountpoint.17:15
Piciits just an empty directory.17:16
XManDonde estoy....17:16
compilerwriter2Pici so I just need to mkdir in /media?17:16
Pici!es | XMan17:16
ubottuXMan: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es.17:16
Picicompilerwriter2: yep.17:16
Picicompilerwriter2: sudo mkdir /media/something17:16
XManHello...17:17
XManbye17:17
compilerwriter2now the device doesn't exist pici17:18
compilerwriter2pici I have the mount point now how do I get the machine to see the drive17:20
compilerwriter2pici Can I get a cdrw to write from the comand line?17:21
jmuxcompilerwriter2: cat /proc/partitions shoud show you the detect devices and partitions17:22
The-Compilerhi vaiursch :)17:23
compilerwriter2jmux I havd sda sda1 sda2 sda5 and then I think these are the thumb.  I have sdb and sdb117:24
compilerwriter2jmux should then try to mount sdb to the mountpoint I created?17:25
jmuxcompilerwriter2: no, sdb is the disk, sdb1 is the partition17:25
compilerwriter2jmux so I should then try to mount sdb117:26
jmuxcompilerwriter2: yes17:26
compilerwriter2Now then I just need to copy my home directory etc to the thumb and I can start over. Am I correct Jmux?17:28
jmuxcompilerwriter2: If the thumb is using any linux file system (means no fat32) you should be fine17:29
compilerwriter2jmux how would I check that out?17:30
jmuxcompilerwriter2: mount17:30
thedarkhello everyone17:31
compilerwriter2jmux is vfat ok?17:31
jmuxno - that's fat32, as all sticks are normally formatted for win, which doesn't know most unix file attribs17:32
thedarkI am trying to use Mplayer to "rip" rm streams, but for some reason it Mplayer as a standalone player won't play them (which would let me dump them to wave), but they will play in the Firefox plugin17:33
compilerwriter2I need to format the stick then don't I jumux17:34
compilerwriter2s/jumux/jmux17:34
jmuxcompilerwriter2: you should be fine, if you use tar17:34
compilerwriter2just create a tarball and write it to the stick in vfat?17:35
jmuxcompilerwriter2: simply tar it to the stick, somethink like tar -cf /media/stick/my-backup.tar /home/myhome17:36
jmuxcompilerwriter2: check out the tar manpage - I guess you would also need --preserve and probably compress it (-z or -j)17:39
compilerwriter2will do jmux17:39
compilerwriter2thanks jmux17:40
compilerwriter2One more thing jmux how does one suspend and then restart a job in the background.  I think it is a ^z and then one does something to put the process back into motion in the background.17:41
compilerwriter2jmux does one just type bg jobnumber?17:42
Picifg to bring a process to the foreground again17:42
jmuxcompilerwriter2: jobs list all jobs, bg + fg <jobid> puts them where you want17:43
compilerwriter2Thanks jmux it is amazing how much one forgets when one doesn't have to use the terminal on a daily basis.17:49
thedarkso nobody knows how I can get Mplayer to play .rm streams?17:58
NickPrestathedark, mplayer isn't play the real media stream by default?17:59

thedarkbut how do I make sure that mplayer doesn't overwrite the previous stream when it moves to the next stream, since they are all the streams are set to be saved with the same filename?18:18

thedarkis there a way to set it to save it with a variable filename?18:21

ImLizok using sudo useradd -m user_name didn't work because the user_name already exists... anyone else know how I can make a non-root user have access to adept????20:12

JampiterHi, I'm having trouble with Kubuntu freezing in KDE4, mainly when I'm using firefox. I'm forced to restart every time this happens. Any ideas on how to remedy this?20:19
favroImLiz: afaik since adept makes changes to the system the user would need to be in the admin group20:20
webasvga is okay? jampiter?20:20
Jampiterwebas: I'm not sure what that is :(20:21

nprestadarn, beat by a second ;)20:21
JampiterThanks :)20:21
JampiterI'll ask there20:21
ImLizfavro: wouldn't that give the user total access like the root user???20:24
favroImLiz: yes it would20:25
ImLizyet I wouldn't want the second user to be able to mess around with the system20:25
favroImLiz: it would need those rights as it writes files systemwide20:26
favroafaik20:26
ImLizfavro: I see, and there's no other way? Not even a way that the root user can install those applications for the second user?20:27
favroImLiz: if the app is installed and the user starts it it should work20:28
ImLizok, because I have flash installed but when I sign in as the other user, I still have to install flash again :/20:31
