[01:23] <Faust-C> how would one "install" a new device in ubuntu server?
[01:23] <Faust-C> i want to have my home server use a linksys wifi card
[01:34] <Faust-C> or maybe i could "route" my existing wifi to my lan card then to the router for now
[02:04] <tonyyarusso> Faust-C: Plug in.  Reboot.  Configure the card just like your other interfaces.
[02:09] <techsupport> is anyone here familiar with hlstatsx ?

[09:47] <orogor> hi here ,anyone use lvm2 ?
[12:08] <orogor> hi here ,anyone use lvm?
[12:08] <Nafallo> orogor: you might be better of asking your actual question.
[12:09] <orogor> lvm doesnt  activate at boot and that causes the boot process to be interupted it ask to press ctr-d to continue
[12:10] <orogor> then i finish the boot process and active the lvm partitiona nd mount them and it s ok ... but that su*ks a bit
[12:10] <Nafallo> hmm. I can't reproduce that.
[12:24] <orogor> Nafallo, if you can tell me some info helpfull for yout o help me , i can do a reboot and give you back the infos
[12:26] <Nafallo> orogor: I'm quite tied up at the moment. sorry.
[12:27] <orogor> ok
[13:25] <orogor> hi here
[13:25] <orogor> can anyone help me tracking a bug in startuip script/udev/lvm ?
[13:31] <_ruben> stating the actual problem/question might yield more responses, orogor
[13:32] <orogor> lvm doesnt  get activated at boot
[13:32] <orogor> activation is done by an udev rule
[13:32] <orogor> restarting udev does activate the rule and the lvm
[13:33] <orogor> but at the system startup udev start doesn t seems tyo do that
[13:33] <orogor> i dont know what to check
[13:33] <_ruben> so you installed without lvm, and added it later on i guess?
[13:33] <orogor> yes
[13:34] <orogor> but not for system
[13:34] <_ruben> perhaps rebuilding the initrd would help (in case it lacks some lvm stuff or so) .. never had that happen to me
[13:34] <orogor> system is on a separate disk and the other one is full lvm
[13:34] <orogor> already tried
[13:34] <_ruben> no errors during boot process?
[13:36] <orogor> one
[13:36] <orogor> something like exec env 34  error
[13:36] <orogor> plus i tried to get bootlogd workign , but i dont have the logs yet
[13:38] <_ruben> last i checked bootlogd was known to be broken
[13:38] <_ruben> (which was quite a while ago)
[14:24] <Jeeves_> Hi all
[14:36] <SmokeyD> ﻿hey people. A question about running tripwire on hardy heron server. Should it be safe to change the monitoring of /var/log from $(SEC_CONFIG) to $(SEC_LOG)?
[15:31] <nijaba> kirkland: if you are around, I just pushed the toggles to fix bugs LP: #315884 and LP: #315885
[16:08] <peter_> hello all
[17:01] <aibo> hi, question about MTA, i installed exim4 as Internet Site, just, didn't configure sasl, etc. I need possibility to send mails from my servers and doesn't need to be able to get replies (not spam), THE QUESTION IS: is such installation safe? I checked smtp port is listened locally, not opened to all world..
[17:17] <aibo> anybody alive?
[17:19] <ScottK> Yep.
[17:19]  * ScottK uses postfix though.
[17:20] <aibo> :(
[19:10] <xinel> I'm having a little problem with firewall rules, I've explained it best on the forums here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6534264#post6534264
[19:59] <Sylphid> Im trying to convert my single disk install to a 2disk raid 1 setup folloing instructions here http://www.howtoforge.com/software-raid1-grub-boot-debian-etch however when i try to reboot into the raid volume it fails to an initramfs prompt and also fails when trying to boot to the original volume... i believe that the  update-initramfs -u command screwed it up but im not sure how to repair this
[20:00] <ball> Sylphid: software RAID?
[20:01] <Sylphid> ball, yes
[20:05] <ball> I'm cold.
[20:06]  * ScottK hands ball some fire.
[20:50] <frojnd> hello there
[20:50] <frojnd> anyone willing to help me establish connection ?
[20:52] <frojnd> no voulenteers ?
[21:50] <Logi_Khoo> Hi, i'd like to have subdomains creation GUI, just like cpanel. Is it possible for ubuntu?
[22:00] <ScottK> !ebox > Logi_Khoo
[22:53] <frojnd> Where is the package list ?
[22:53] <frojnd> in ubuntu 8.4 ?
[22:54] <owh> frojnd: Which package list?
[22:55] <hads> "the package list"?
[22:55] <frojnd> whre is the repository list ?
[22:55] <frojnd> owh: sorry reposiotry list
[22:55] <owh> frojnd: What are you trying to do?
[22:55] <frojnd> owh: to see what repository are commented and which are not
[22:55] <hads> /etc/apt/sources.list
[22:56] <frojnd> hads: thanx
[22:56] <owh> Yup
[22:58] <frojnd> I have put in the server extra 200gb ata disk, how can I format it ? with cfdisk ? sfdisk ?
[22:58] <frojnd> is it possibnle to format it into ext4 already ?
[22:59] <owh> frojnd: You can partition it with cfdisk or sfdisk and use mkfs to create a file system. Don't know about ext4.
[22:59] <ScottK> frojnd: The installer for Jaunty includes an option for ext4.
[22:59] <frojnd> ScottK: I'm on 8.4
[23:00] <ScottK> I don't know if you can.  I'm fairly certain you don't want to unless you know what you are doing.
[23:00] <dazman> I'm sure ext4 is still marked as experimental isn't it? in the kernel?
[23:00] <frojnd> dazman: dunno
[23:00] <frojnd> but I heard nothing but faster and more stable
[23:01]  * hads has doubts
[23:01] <ScottK> For the 8.04 kernel it is definitely experimental.
[23:01] <dazman> Hmm, faster would be good, but in terms of stability I've never had a problem with ext2 or ext3.
[23:01] <ScottK> For 2.6.28, it's not.
[23:02] <frojnd> ScottK: 8.04 can upgrade to 2.6.28 so I don't see any problem with that
[23:02] <frojnd> ...it's just kernel upgrade
[23:02] <ScottK> OK.  Well once you're using a different kernel than the one we released with, I think you're on your own.
[23:03] <owh> frojnd: Yeah, unless you have a compelling reason to run a server with that, I'd recommend against that.
[23:03] <frojnd> owh: nope :)
[23:03] <dazman> In a server, I'd probably be recommending ext3.
[23:03] <frojnd> I wait untill it's in repos
[23:03] <dazman> At this point.
[23:07] <frojnd>  Wrote partition table, but re-read table failed.  Reboot to update table.
[23:07] <frojnd> reboot the system ?
[23:08] <frojnd> also it wouldn't let me write untill selecting boot flag to the only partition I've created
[23:08] <frojnd> with cfdisk
[23:08] <frojnd> is this normal ?
[23:08] <frojnd>       sda1              Boot              Primary        Linux
[23:09] <frojnd> can I make filesystem with mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda1 now or should I reboot ?
[23:09] <erichammond>  /join #lilax
[23:09] <frojnd> erichammond: why ?
[23:09] <erichammond> sorry, apparently there was a leading space in my input buffer
[23:35] <frojnd> anyone here that know how to automount partitions ?
[23:35] <frojnd> I have now 2 disks
[23:35] <frojnd> one is internal /sda1 and one is external /sdc1
[23:36] <hads> fstab
[23:36] <hads> Oh, external
[23:36] <frojnd> hads: one is internal and one is external
[23:38] <frojnd> any ideas ? or any useful howtos ?
[23:54] <jmarsden> frojnd: Partitions in /etc/fstab get automounted, basically.  So stick your new partitions in there.
