BLZjedimindlappy:  hmmm that is odd...00:00
Until_It_SleepsBut I will take the easy fix for now until I can nail down how to use Terminal00:00
jedimindlappyBLZ: could it be because im connected wirelessly? i dont see why that should matter though00:00
BLZgnufs:  i guess the dirty hack would be to install ubuntu and remove everything you don't want00:01
BLZjedimindlappy:  maybe that's just to configure vpn servers?  i dunno00:01
nempcan someone help mi with compiling driver for graphic card?00:01
nempme*00:01
BLZUntil_It_Sleeps:  oh you'll definitely want to be familiar with the terminal lol00:01
skinofstars1gnufs: or to do a minimal install and build up from there00:01
jedimindlappyBLZ: well its to connect to VPN Since all the other options are networking options as opposed to daemons...00:01
Until_It_Sleepslol00:02
BLZjedimindlappy:  right.  i really don't know00:02

exodus_msI need to convert some html documents to plain text. I've been using html2text to convert downloaded web pages to plain text. Is there a way to use wget, w3m or lynx to download a web page as a text file?00:04

Until_It_Sleepsyeah. I've used Windows XP for quite a long time. I've only used ubuntu for a month or 2, and even then, I still have a laptop with both versions of XP on it.00:06
YankDownUnderAnyone know about how much of a d/l it takes to apt-get all the KDE stuff?00:06
jedimindlappythis much |----------------------------------------|00:06
ryanpriorgnufs: The Free Software Foundation's gNewSense project has spawned a collection of scripts which can be used to remove non-free bits from Ubuntu, however.00:06
YankDownUnderjedimindlappy, Wow...way cool... ;)00:06
carpiiYank, its not a huge amount00:07
ryanpriorgnufs: Get in contact with them to get a sense of how up-to-date it is with the latest Ubuntu releases.00:07
carpiiim guessing maybe 140 meg or something00:07
jedimindlappyin 8.10 in the network manager at the top i click and goto VPN Conntection > Configure VPN - and it pops up the Network Connections dialogue, except that i cant click "Add" in the VPN tab, its grayed out - all the other networking options let me Add connections .... am i missing something ? anyone want to venture a guess?00:07
YankDownUndercarpii, Not huge - er...ok...I'm not huge...so in relation to er...?00:07
gnufsryanprior: i _am_ a gNewSense user and contributor :-)00:07
YankDownUnder140mb is alright...200mb is actually all right...more? Nah...not all right...00:07
jedimindlappyyou draw the line at 200mb?00:08
Burlynnits a 100 megs just for the kde libs00:08
[kEvn]can someone put about:plugins in their firefox and tell me what you have under Showkwave Flash00:08

jedimindlappyi can add at will00:09
jxanderi am using moblock... is there any way to use it without root access, so that it won't prompt me for root password each time i start or stop it?00:10
jedimindlappydoes vpn have any dependencies im not aware of ?00:10
timobjedimindlappy: maybe you need some extra packages ...00:10
jedimindlappytimob: any idea what those might be ?00:10
timobjedimindlappy: whats the vpn software you are trying to connect to?00:10
* YankDownUnder is getting decaffinated00:10
YankDownUnderY'all have a good one...ciao00:10
jedimindlappytimob: does it matter? its some corporate one from work - no idea ; but it wont let me click on "Add" at all so i havent even gotten that far00:10
timobjedimindlappy: i think there are packages for each ie, you could add the openvpn package ...00:11
trimetaI'm about to do something dangerous that might wipe my system. My /home partition is backed up, as is my /etc folder; is there anything else I should save? If I lose everything, what would I need (in addition to /home and /etc) to recreate my system? In particular, how do I back up my list of installed programs?00:11
timobtrimeta: /var/log/dpkg has a log of installed packages00:12

OrphisIs there any autofs/automount guru here ? I've got a bug with it that occurs in Ubuntu and Debian even though it seems I'm using it in a regular and simple way00:19
usr13[kEvn]: Shockwave Flash  See: http://pastebin.ca/132009200:19
OrphisEven the guys in #debian couldn't solve it, maybe you can ?00:19
phasegenkitche: it says I own it and can edit and delete files00:20
JesperHansenOrphis: state the bug :)00:20
OrphisSo JesperHansen, I'm trying to access to my Win box through Samba and autofs00:21
[kEvn]usr13, thanks....weird thats exactly what i have..but my flash player won't play flash objects :(00:21
kitchephasegen: well something like this drwx------ for the permissions?00:21
usr13[kEvn]: May need java as well, not sure tho.00:22
OrphisI've created my credential file in /etc/auto.smb.hostname and it works fine (like running mount directly and supplying the credentials option)00:22
phasegenkitche: I even deleted the whole .mozilla directory once and logged out, logged back in, and restarted firefox to be sure...00:22
usr13[kEvn]: Are you current with updates?00:22
=== Until_It_Sleeps is now known as Nobody
[kEvn]usr13,  yea i've sudo apt-get update00:22

OrphisThe problem is JesperHansen that ls /smb/myhost/sharename doesn't work... I've looked at the debug output but nothing seems to tell what's the problem00:23
usr13[kEvn]: Did you let it get behind and just caught up?00:23
carpiiwow i cant believe i used evolution under kde for past 6 months. KMail is sooo much nicer00:23
[kEvn]usr13, i just installed ubuntu yesterday... so ...00:23
* JesperHansen hates people without a letter as the first character of an irc nick. Makes it harder to tab nick :P00:23
usr13[kEvn]: 8.10 ?00:24

[kEvn]usr13, the object does not appear on the page00:25
carpiirods, or find the setup.exe yes00:25
rodsk00:25
[kEvn]usr13, as if the actual <div> containing the object is filtered out00:25
usr13[kEvn]: Does it give an error?  Or just blank white space where the video should be playing?00:25
puntohi.. will I have to upgrade my ubuntu version to have the new KDE?00:26

ubuntuuser234234geoffrian, it is often easier to just ask the question. Don't know if I can help until I know what you need :)00:29

fluitfries_i've installed xubuntu fine on my SATA drive, but when i hook up my IDE drives afterward, i can't boot into xubuntu anymore.  what gives?00:31
matt____When can I apt-get upgrade to KDE4.2?00:31
holyguyverI started this 20 hours ago & this is what it says now: Checking for blocks (read-only test): 12999928/12209599900:31
usr13fluitfries_: Sounds like a hardware issue.00:31
geoffrianI did that.  It said 599Mhz00:31
puntoyour bios thinks that the IDE drive is hda00:32
usr13fluitfries_: Make sure your PC is set to boot the correct drive.00:32
walbertmatt: probably when kubuntu 9.4 comes out00:32
puntothey usually have an option to swap them00:32
fluitfries_punto: my BIOS is set to boot the sata master with xubuntu as the first boot device.00:32
matt____walbert: What? No way...I don't know if I like the way this works...00:32
cypher1does anybody use logitech audiohub with ubuntu ?00:32
JesperHansengeoffrian: And you're bios info also says 1.2GHz or 599MHz?00:32
puntofluitfries_: yeah, but when there's an ide present, it shows up as hda, so even if you boot from the sata one, it'll think the ide is hda00:33
fluitfries_punto: how can i change that?00:33
puntofluitfries_: you should check if the bios has an option to invert them, they usually do00:33
robertzhow do i make my webcam framerate faster? is it possible?00:33
walbertmatt: You can download/install Kubuntu 9.4 right now, it's still alpha and probably not entirely stable, but it has kde 4.200:33
ubuntuuser234234robertz, it is never going to be faster than it says on the box...00:33
geoffrianThe BIOS says that it is a 1.2Ghz processor along with the Gnome System Monitor, but typing that code into the terminal says 599.8Mhz00:34
usr13fluitfries_: You may have to unplug the drives and change the grub menu list and more than likely a bunch of other stuff too.00:34
matt____walbert: Hmm..when is it supposed to come out?00:34
fluitfries_punto: ok, i'll look again, thanks.00:34
robertzoh man. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr00:34
robertzthanks00:34
walbertMatt:  8.4 is 4/2008, 8.10 is 10/2008, 9.4, therefor, is 4/200900:34
fluitfries_usr13: when i first installed linux i tried to install grub to the first boot device, but it never worked until i unplugged all the ides and just installed grub to the sata.00:34
usr13fluitfries_: In other words, unplug the new drives and make the changes and then plug them back in.  But be suer and take a snapshot of the current configuration to see what needs to be done.00:34
matt____walbert: sO NOT MUCH LONGER...I'LL WAIT!00:34
JesperHansengeoffrian: I am thinking it was just a fluke00:35
usr13fluitfries_: That's interesting.00:35
fluitfries_usr13: is there a way i can just reinstall grub from the xubuntu cd without reinstalling everything?00:35
fluitfries_usr13: that way i could try putting it on all the drives until i find one that works.  :P00:36
=== Hunt_e107 is now known as hacker_web
usr13fluitfries_: Well, you may only need to boot from a live boot CD and fix grub.00:36
geoffrianThe gnome applet CPU Freq Scaling Monitor says 599Mhz.  That is when I first discovered it00:36
fluitfries_usr13: ok, so if i boot off the live cd, i can use the gui to manage grub?00:37
usr13fluitfries_: You may have a hardware issue.  Something configured wrong, jumper in wrong place,  defective hardware, etc.00:37
geoffrianJesperHansen: It's confusing why Ubuntu doesn't use the full power.00:38
fluitfries_usr13: possibly, but i'm pretty sure it's not that.  i haven't tinkered with it enough to declare a hardware issue, since i don't even know how to reinstall/manage grub.  :)00:38
usr13fluitfries_: Try the recovery option and look at the situation, see that all the drives are accessable and what order they are in and how they are named, etc and just go from there.00:38
occynothing in topic about kde 4.2 ?00:38
fluitfries_usr13: recovery, ok will give it a shot.  thanks!00:39

Aspiredmsuse: I'm back.  Your boot device is usually managed by grub or lilo.  These do not support reading linux software raid devices.  However, you can use a usb boot stick or similar to get into an early boot environment that ubuntu could use to start up the software raid 5 and finish booting.  Essentially its a similar problem to the encrypted root partition03:04

Aspireun_dave: I imagine that a suspend to ram system should last hours to days on minimal battery.  technically only the dram should be refreshed during this time, if you're waiting for some timer to expire, you're waking up the processor or some special logic circuit to do the calculation to wake-up03:41
root______kaimerra maybe blacklist ata_piix and rebuild the initramfs ?03:42
ryanpriorun_dave: If you feel like digging, mess with the WinXP driver and see what signals it sends when you suspend, then try duplicating them in the Linux driver and see what works.03:42

ryanpriorun_dave: I'm not a very knowledgeable Windows hacker, but you might find one in ##windows.03:44
StarheroThe flickering, seems to look like a refresh as in it lasts only maybe 100 to 300 milliseconds. It has no obvious cycle (not repeating in any logical order) just that is repeat between 30 seoncds to 1 min. It does not do anything like that before boot or at the login screen(least I haven't really noticed it at the login screen) The device is a nvidia 7700 GO in a Asus G1,and the drivers in use are the recomended (177).03:45
ryanpriorStarhero: are you using Compiz? If so, does the flickering still happen in Metacity?03:46
StarheroYes I am using compiz, but what exactly is metacity and how do I test that. (assuming that it is x server with out compiz?)03:47

primeok cheers04:27

carpiitar xzvf filename.tar05:04
m0zonei just clicked file05:04
carpiior drop the z if its not a tar.gz05:05
trimetadubi: I believe Brasero will convert them into a format your car CD player can use, if you select an Audio project.05:05
Louishow do i figure out a particular group id if i want to use the usermod command?05:05
monjaroTo phrase that in a simpler way, does anyone know how my /etc/passwd could say that zsh is my default shell, but whenever I start a shell rc comes up (with $SHELL set to rc)?05:05
Flannelubundude: You make LVM partitions on your physical harddrives (formatted as LVM), those are Physical Volumes.  You group Physical Volumes into Volume Groups (which because 'pretend' hard drives) and then you can partition the VGs into Logical Volumes, which are akin to regular partitions (which you then format as ext3, etc)  http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lvm/  explains it in paragraphs (more importantly, with pictures)05:05
dubitrimeta, aight thanks man will do so now :)05:05
trimetadubi: No problem.05:05
Snipes44carpii I have the server setup to shoe a gui login screen. Is that not x server showing that?05:06
trimetaLouis: What are you doing with usermod? Adding someone to groups? Changing their default group?05:06
ubundudeFlannel: YES I GOT IT, I didn't notice i had to use the spacebar to mark which volume i wanted to use. now that its selected i -think- i'm good so far05:07
Louistrimeta:  i want to add a user to the group "lpadmin"05:08
ubundudeFlannel: actually that page does make more sense of it too, thank you05:08
trimetaLouis: Probably best to use gpasswd instead of usermod for that.05:08
Louistrimeta:  what would the syntax be for that command?05:08
trimetaTo add user "foo" to the group "lpadmin," you'd run "gpasswd -a foo lpadmin"05:08
roger_m0zone : it says tar: You must specify one of the `-Acdtrux' options05:08
roger_Try `tar --help' or `tar --usage' for more information.05:08
Louistrimeta:  thanks a bunch05:09
trimetaLouis: No problem.05:09

ennteeHello all, I'm building a server to run Ubuntu 8.04 LTS and am trying to choose a motherboard with support onboard LAN. Is there a website I could check or can anyone recommend a motherboard that works well?05:11
trimetaenntee: You mean, just to make sure that the onboard ethernet will work with Ubuntu? Pretty much any modern board would work, I'd think...05:12
trimetaOr are you looking for wake-on-LAN or something fancy?05:12
kazagistarmy joystick has the proper module installed, but jscalibrator does not see it, and it does not show up under /dev/input/... what could be wrong?05:12

BooNGala2Bah, for some reason I can't apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`05:12
ennteetrimeta: no, nothing fancy. just need it to work :)05:12
BooNGala2it says linux-headers-2.6.24.22-generic has no installation candidate05:12
trimetaenntee: I built a server from scratch for my 8.04 LTS box, and the cheapest mobo I bought worked. I might have gotten lucky, I guess.05:13
BooNGala2maybe I don't have the right apt source enabled?05:13
cellofellowBooNGala2: it's linux-headers-2.6.24-22-generic05:13

jef_bunturdw200169: well I followed the howto but the server wont start and its saying me too look in a syslog which i havent found a clue where it should be05:18
trimetaplytheman: Samba is a file-sharing protocol...it shouldn't be preventing your computer from connecting to your wired connection.05:18
geniiplytheman: You can restore the "factory" smb.conf file by:    sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf.old ; sudo cp /usr/share/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba.conf                      But it sounds like something other than just a messy samba conf file.05:18

rdw200169jef_buntu, also, you set the interface in /etc/default/dhcpd?05:19
geniiplytheman: Apologies, the second command path should be /etc/samba/smb.conf   and NOT /etc/smb.conf05:19
trimetaplytheman: So the wired connection goes where, a windows machine? Anyway, try the command genii suggested and see if that helps.05:19

jef_bunturdw200169: ok! i see, thanks for the tip05:22
nickrudcarpediem, if the version numbers are identical, the first repository wins05:22
carpiiok thankyou05:22
rdw200169jef_buntu, for example, i did pastebinit /etc/default/dhcp3-server and it returned a link: http://pastebin.com/f333a621705:22

trimetaFezzler: Don't worry about the configure.* files. While you're in the source directory, type "./configure" Note the leading . and /.05:29
werdnumlinux_guy: Step 1. sudo nano /etc/hosts, Step 2. Change it. Step 3, you have a modified hosts05:29
jessieShanix: So which version of Ubuntu?05:29
Fezzlertrimeta: sudo?05:29
Shanixjessie, hardy05:29

lstarnesFezzler: sudo apt-get install bison05:31

Fezzlertrimeta: Need pilot-link05:32
rdw200169jef_buntu, you need to assign the gateway to the interface; i.e. ip addr add 192.168.1.254/24 dev <device_name>05:32
chronofirehey my sound was working fine the other day now it is not. What are some possible causes?05:32
trimetalinux_guy: You can just edit their modified hosts file to work in Linux.05:32
Shanixjessie, cuz I know it works under Intrepid... so it might be backported to Hardy05:32
prahal_Fezzler, you should install build-essentiel05:32
rdw200169jef_buntu, then the dhcp server should start05:32
=== dzup-beback is now known as dzup
Fezzlertrimeta: So sudo apt-get install pilot-link?05:33
werdnumlinux_guy: well, hosts files are the same format, but you should probably just use AdBlock in Firefox.05:33
NimbleRabitwhat I would like to be able to do is put things into a folder and then when I mount something have all that stuff automatically get added to the mounted directory, is that possible?05:33
Shanixjessie, that was the answer I was hopping for...05:33
jef_bunturdw200169: ok05:33
trimetaFezzler: Try what prahal_ said, installing build-essential.05:33
rdw200169jef_buntu, think about it... the gateway needs to exist, right?05:33

prahal_chronofire, sudo lsof /dev/dsp and gnome-volume-control05:34

Fezzlertrimeta: second report no such directory05:41
linux_guyprahal_, thanks to you also05:42
plythema1genii: not sure why it knocked out my wired connection05:42
trimetaYou could try running "./configure --with-pilot-link=/usr/share/pilot-link" and see if that works.05:42
rdw200169jef_buntu, this is the same ip you set manually for gateway05:42
nickrudLouis, iirc edit /etc/cups/cups.conf and edit Listen localhost:631 to :63105:42
* linux_guy will no longer make lame jokes05:42
Louisnickrud:  ooh... not *:631 ...05:42
jef_bunturdw200169: ok05:42
KeLaGood time, Give me how to make changes to sudoers05:42
rdw200169jef_buntu, it's the ip that points to the router that gets out of the LAN subnet into another network; which could be the internet or something, doesn't really matter05:42
chronofireprahal_ i think i had just entere the informatiion in to the terminal wrong. now it says /dev/dsp: permission denied05:42
nickrudLouis, an old memory, it may be bitrotted05:43
prahal_chronofire, that because you forgot the sudo in the last attempt05:43
Louisnickrud:  sorry, what?05:43
ohzieWhat's the easiest way to share my printer with samba? :|05:43
ohzieI'm bad at this stuff.05:43
Fezzlertrimeta: pilot-link is in usr/share05:43
nickrudLouis, just a caveat that it might not work. I haven't set that up for a few years. Have done so, looking at docs in case05:43
jef_bunturdw200169: default route in ubuntu connection information?05:44
mnguyenWhat's a good application to use to burn an ISO image?05:44
prahal_sudo is switch user (and do ... well I don't know, probably it was cool) . By default it switch to admin (root) user05:44
trimetaFezzler: Try both and see which makes the ./configure script stop complaining.05:44
Fezzlertrimeta: How do I pass the path to ./configure when I run it05:44
Halobecbrasero works for iso's05:44
jtajimnguyen: right click in the file manager, and select write to disc...05:44
rdw200169jef_buntu, yeah, sort of; you have to point the gateway to the ip assigned to the *other* interface, the LAN interface05:44
trimetaFezzler: "./configure --with-pilot-link=/usr/share/pilot-link"05:44

chronofireprahal_ well i tried with the sudo stillg ot an error i see the volume controll in ubuntu system try but nothign is muted05:45
trimetamnguyen: If you're using KDE, the K3B burning program can also burn iso's.05:45
rdw200169jef_buntu, let linux deal with routing LAN -> WAN; the clients don't know and don't care how to get to the WAN; they set THEIR default route pointing to your LAN interface... make any sense?05:45
Louisnickrud:  oh okay.  would you mind glancing over my cupsd.config file ... i think i'm missing something dead simple05:45
jtajimnguyen: indeed, I see, we usually assume ubuntu-desktop here unless otherwise indicated ;)05:45

nickrudLouis, sure. No promises like I said it's been a while since I've used anything but the default installation05:46
mnguyenFlannel: thanks05:46

Louisnickrud:  sure, i understand.  let me pastebin it.  and thanks!05:46
cast|lir///join ##engineering05:46
rdw200169jef_buntu, imagine you're a client on a subnet; for example, you just set up a new linksys wireless router... what ip do you get? 192.168.1.2.  what ip did your router tell your computer was the default route (gateway)?  192.168.1.1.  same subnet.  make sense?05:46
Fezzlertrimeta: error "You must install pilot-link including its development files to use pilot-mailsync."05:46
trimetamnguyen: http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialCDBurn.html05:46
otarajessie: i paste oledi05:46
prahal_chronofire, set sound to low and try cat /bin/bash > /dev/dsp. (those will be crackling noises if any)05:46
Fezzlertrimeta: maybe development file is missing?05:47
geniiplytheman: Unfortunately I am not going to be around long enough to assist properly. But you should use the pastebin to post results of commands:  ifconfig         and: route         so that someone can study what interfaces you have, which is being used, and which one the computer thinks it should direct traffic through05:47
rdw200169jef_buntu, then the router figures out how to get that traffic to the internet.  first, though, the client has to know how to get to the router (gateway IP address.)05:47
trimetaFezzler: Yea, normally I'd advise installing pilot-link-dev, but that doesn't exist.05:47
prahal_chronofire, if you get permission denied. type : "groups" annd check you are in the audio group05:47
rdw200169jef_buntu, the trick here is that the gateway IP address can be *anything* that fits within the available IP range.  it's just customary to use the first available IP05:47
Louisnickrud:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/110679/     as of right now, that's not allowing me access from a client on the local network05:48
Louiswhich is what i'm trying to do =)05:48
plythemangenii: so just type ifconfig, paste results, then route into the terminal?  should it be connected to my wired network or while on my neighbors wifi?05:48
trimetamnguyen: Note that the page I cited refers to a command-line program "cdrecord," but that's been renamed to wodim in newer versions.05:48
Fezzlertrimeta: we're so close!05:48
mnguyentrimeta: thanks05:48
jef_bunturdw200169: well i forgot to tell you that the server will work online when disconnected from internet and will supply for now only one client....so my laptop will be directly connected to an old desktop.  So the router should be my laptop right?05:49
chronofireparahal_ it says nate adm cdrom plugdev lpadmin admin sambashare when i typed groups05:49
Halobecanyone having trouble downloading from repos ?05:49
rdw200169jef_buntu, wait, wouldnt' the router be the desktop?05:49
jef_bunturdw200169: the desktop is a client05:50
jef_bunturdw200169: and the laptop is the server05:50
trimetaHalobec: To check, I just ran an update && upgrade, and everything's working fine for me.05:50
geniiplytheman: The one it's supposed to be using. And do not paste results here. Use pastebin05:50

HalobecThanks05:50
plythemanright right, thanks05:51
rdw200169jef_buntu, well then, yes, (just making sure we weren't backwards).  you have your (i'm assuming) wlan0 plugged into the internet.  the ip's there don't matter05:51
macordw200169: wlan0 would be wifi05:51
macordw200169: eth0?05:51
HalobecI've installed the nvidia drivers before, but it's not working this time05:51
nickrudLouis, nothing jumps out at me.05:51
rdw200169jef_buntu, what DOES matter is that, for internet to work, you have to set ip_forward, and NAT, (you know all this, right?)05:51
trimetaFezzler: Short of finding the sources to pilot-link and installing it manually as well, I'm not sure the best way to get the necessary development files.05:51
Louisnickrud:  okay.. back to square one.  lol thanks though05:51
trimetaAnd it's really messy to have more than one or two things installed like this.05:51
Fezzlertrimeta: :(05:52
rdw200169jef_buntu, well, let's play with this scenario, i'm assuming it's yours.  don't let me make this too complicated ;)  internet -> wlan0 -> eth0 -> client05:52
rdw200169jef_buntu, right?05:52
nickrudLouis, ubuntu has made me lazy. I haven't had to actually configure much of anything in years.05:52
Louisnickrud:  haha ubuntu is still a challenge for me at times05:53
jef_bunturdw200169: i wont push that far for now, since i cant be connected to internet and my new network at the sametime05:53

trimetaFezzler: Could be; read the configure script, I guess.06:08
riz0npan_: unplug the power and see if it stays on or not06:08
pan_it stays on06:08
pan_but it stays at 006:08
pan_so its battery?06:08
riz0npan_: for how long?06:08
pan_not sure haven't tested06:08
Louisjessie:  not to take advantage of your kindness or anything, but I configured samba (sort of... I think) and windows still isn't seeing the printer share... could you take a look at my smb.conf and tell me if there's anything obviously wrong?06:08
riz0npan_: thats the only way to test06:08
pan_but tells me battery is low06:08
pan_so my problem is just battery?06:09
jessieLouis, of course. :)06:09
Louisjessie:  thanks. let me pastebin it for you06:09
riz0npan_: could be one of 3 things: bad battery, bad voltage checker built in the battery, bad communication between battery and laptop making laptop "think" battery is at 0%06:09
jessieLouis: Sounds good.06:09
riz0npan_: when i worked on cellphones i run into some phones that had a bad volt meter built in them.. the battery could be fully charged but the phone would always report that the battery was low06:10
pan_so they only way to figure out is to get a new battery06:10
riz0npan_: the only way to figure out is to do some testing.. unplug the AC adapter and let it sit and drain06:11

Louisjessie:  how do you mean?  sorry... i'm still learning06:13
riz0nif you notice on your battery it has several connectors.. in all reality you should only need 3 connectors, two for positive (one for normal power use, one to charge) and a negative06:13

chex_Hey everyone06:13

krield-b: afaik. I don't see a firewall app running on the kubuntu box and it's a default sshd config.06:14
riz0npan_: its possible that one of those connectors is bad in your battery or on your computer.. the only way to figure out what is going on is to let it sit for a while06:14
Louissure thing hang on06:14
Louisjessie:  do i replace "user" with my username?06:14
riz0npan_: if you get an hour or two without AC I'd say your battery is good, but depending on your laptop the volt meter is either in the battery or in the cpu itself (or maybe both)06:14
pan_i c06:14
pan_did i kill it with static?06:14
jessieLouis: Yes06:15
pan_or droping it?06:15
riz0npan_: if the battery lasts a good bit, then you could try replacing the battery (just to get a new volt meter) and that will resolve it.06:15
d-bkriel: dns issue ? or network...06:15
pan_sweet06:15
Fezzlertrimeta: Well, I see the reference to openSLL in ./configure06:15
krield-b: doing the actual ssh via IP. can ping. there's just a switch between the boxes.06:15
riz0npan_: its just like a car with a bad gas meter.. most people just live with it because replacing a whole car over a bad gas meter, in most peoples eyes, doesn't seem like an economical thing to do06:16
krield-b: yeah, you're about as stumped as me.06:16

Louisjessie:  i'm getting the following output:  "failed to find entry for user louis      failed to modify passwprd entry for user louis"06:16
pan_is it cause battery is getting old?06:16
riz0npan_: then again, replacing the battery may NOT resolve it.. like i said, it just depends on what is actually wrong.06:16
pan_i've had thils laptop for 4 years06:16
trimetaFezzler: Yea, probably a developer typo. Anyway, try running it again and see if it'll work now.06:16
pan_yeah06:16
riz0npan_: it could be a bad battery, the static you mentioned, or dropping it like you mentioned.06:16
riz0npan_: when you hook the AC to it, does it ever report that the battery is "fully charged"06:17
riz0nor does it just say "Charging (0%)" all the time?06:17
pan_i think it was static06:17
pan_my sis was using and she claims there was static06:17
jtajipan_: that's pretty old for a lithium-ion battery06:17
riz0npan_: also, is it the battery meter in ubuntu or windows that is showing the 0%, or both?06:17
pan_both06:17
pan_both ubuntu and windows06:17

riz0npan_: ok... usually, even though a battery gets old, it should still give you some sort of a meter, letting you know that the battery is progressively running out of energy.06:18
Louisjessie:  I agree =)  cups and samba are odd...06:18
riz0npan_: you just got to go through the process of elimination from here on out.06:18

riz0npan_: once you have let the battery drain, and you have determined that the battery is physically good (or bad) here are your next diagnostic steps... if you know someone who has the same laptop, swap out batteries.. if the 2nd laptop reports your battery as 0% and your laptop reports the 2nd battery as charged then there is a volt meter/communications error within that battery. while the battery may be good, you will never know when06:19
Louisjessie:  i'm not too clear on why i need a samba password though06:19
Louisjessie:  yes.  i'm logged in as that user06:19
Fezzlertrimeta: here is the object it is testing for "LIBS="$LIBS -L$ssl_libloc -lssl -lcrypto""06:20
riz0npan_: if you put your battery in 2nd laptop and it properly reads the battery, then your laptop has an issue with reading batteries.06:20
pan_i hope it's just battery ><06:20
riz0npan_: and at that point, unfortunately, there is no amount of battery replacing you can do to fix your issue.06:20
riz0npan_: that's all you can hope :)06:20
pan_^^06:20
jessieLouis: Shoot, never mind. You have "Guest only" set to yes in smb.conf06:20
pan_thx riz06:20
Fezzlertrimeta: followed by an "else" statement that generates the openSLL error06:20
riz0npan_: no problem. hope i have given you some things to test with06:20
pan_u've helped me plenty06:21
jessieLouis: I'll pastebin my smb.conf06:21
Louisjessie:  aah makes sense.  is that also preventing me from printing?06:21
Louisjessie:  yes, please do! lol =)06:21
jessieLouis: I don't think so, no.06:21
Louisi'm about to rip my hair out lol06:21
riz0npan_: depending on the cost of a battery, the amount of money you are willing to spend to replace it, and the amount of time you actually spend using your laptop off the charger... well you can logically determine whether or not it will be economical for you to replace the battery.06:21
Fezzlertrimeta: maybe I give up for tonight?06:21
pan_or i could buy a netbook haha06:22
trimetaFezzler: I'm grabbing a copy of the source now...but yea, I don't see any openssl-dev package you'll be able to install.06:22
pan_for cheap06:22
riz0npan_: that works too :)06:23
riz0npan_: might be time to retire your laptop into a desktop (attach a keyboard/mouse/lcd to it and sit the laptop on a shelf)06:24
pan_i a gree06:24
ozzloyhey, sound stopped on my laptop.  how do i find out why?06:24
pan_i agree06:24
Fezzlertrimeta: it is looking for something because in ./configure the LIBS variable is the output of a locate method06:24
pan_my dad wanted to do that anywayz O_O06:24
trimetaFezzler: The line that does the locating is the one which reads:06:25
trimetafind_libloc "ssl" "/lib /usr/lib /usr/lib/openssl /usr/local/lib /usr/local/openssl/lib"06:25
trimetaYou have a file called /usr/lib/ssl, right? I think that's what it's looking for...06:25
riz0npan_: i have a laptop that is older (around 5 years old) and it has been pretty reliable except for dust getting in the cpu fan and overheating (easy fix)... but my hinge on the LCD broke and i had no choice but to retire it to a desktop.. believe it or not the battery in it still lasts like its fairly new.06:25
d-bkriel: mmm reboot rofl06:25
jessieLouis: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/110700/06:25
riz0npan_: so you can say that you have a desktop that has a built in APC ;)06:25
pan_i've seen lcd flicker into weird colors06:25
pan_in laptop06:25
pan_an old inspiron06:26
pan_i'd have to beat the screen06:26
pan_for it to turn back06:26
d-bunless you use something like fail2ban  /denyhosts06:26
pan_or maybe something was loose06:26
pan_and i hit it back in place?06:26
calliopeok after I make some changes to xorg.conf what do I do to active that change or reload the xserver?06:26
riz0npan_: even though your APC doesn't give you a readout of how long its going to last when there is no power, at least it will last long enough if your power flickers or someting06:26
pan_yeah06:26
riz0npan_: i just replaced the LCD in my old inspiron laptop... i guess it somehow got jarred in the laptop bag and just cracked.06:27
Louisjessie:  and yours is configured to allow all users on the network to print?06:27
pan_its ok i guess its time for me to retire this laptop06:27
sunny256I think there is something fishy going on in Ubuntu 8.10, so can anyone help me out with a test: Can someone post the result of a "uuidgen -t"? It seems as the clock isn't properly randomized.06:27
pan_amd turion 64 ml-3406:27
riz0npan_: if you "hit it back in place" then you probably just have a wire lose or the wire itself may have a small pinch in it06:27
trimetaFezzler: Wait...hmm...maybe this is a bug in their script? I think they're looking to find /usr/lib/libssl.so, but you actually have a /usr/lib/libssl3.so06:27
riz0npan_: usually those cables that hook the LCD to your laptop motherboard are not expensive06:28
pan_ah06:28
xxx_xim runing hardy heron now i got the ibex can i install on top of the other without erase anything? is it possible?06:28
pan_but i dont want to fix the inspiron though its old enough06:28
Fezzlertrimeta: edit ./confige script?06:28
jessielol. Louis, no idea. :S it's too late to think. lol06:28
pan_its 700 mega hrz06:28
Louisjessie:  i hear that...06:28
riz0npan_: yeah its definitely time to retire it06:28
pan_haha06:28
pan_how fast do net books go?06:29
pan_i just know they're cheap06:29
trimetaFezzler: It's worth a shot; find the line which reads as follows and replace the ssl with ssl3:06:29
trimetafind_libloc "ssl" "/lib /usr/lib /usr/lib/openssl /usr/local/lib /usr/local/openssl/lib"06:29
Louisjessie:  any idea what the semi-colons (;) mean in the config file?06:29
riz0npan_: my inspiron is Pentium 3 1GHZ, i upgraded the ram in it to 512MB ram, and put a 60 GB hard drive in it, the battery is 100% toast (lasts 0 seconds when unhooked from AC) but it works great in Ubuntu and Windows XP (which is rarely booted on it, usually just use ubuntu)06:29
jessieLouis: there a type of comment06:29
jessieLouis: #=regular comment ;= code comment06:30
pan_ah i c06:30
riz0npan_: but right now my finances can not afford to purchase a new laptop so i will continue to fix this one till something major goes bad on it (like the motherboard goes bye bye)06:30
Louisjessie:  okay, so they aren't "active" so to speak06:30
jessieLouis: http://paste.ubuntu.com:80/110702/ this is what you want, i think06:30
pan_what do u think about net books?06:30
pan_i just dont like how they have 4 gigs of hdd space06:30
Louisjessie;  you're a lifesaver... that looks like it...06:30
pan_on most of them06:30
jessieLouis: lol. I hope so. :)06:31
macopan_: the use case they serve is for when you dont store much locally, you just want to be able to access remote web services, like your email, facebook, maybe music on last.fm or tv on hulu...06:31
riz0npan_: my laptop with the broke hinge is a toshiba satellite, pentium 4 3.02 ghz, upgraded ram to 768 MB, and put a new 100 GB hard drive in it.. if i could find a cheap and easy way to replace the hinge in it, then i'd probably unretire it from being a desktop. not to mention ive had to resolder the end of the power cable back on the wire countless times (why spend ~ $100 on a power adapter when all thats wrong with it is a broke end06:31
riz0npan_: i have never heard of a net book06:32
macoi would not want to use a netbook for programming. too tiny of a keyboard.06:32
pan_its like a minture laptop06:32
macoriz0n: you know those mini laptops for just online stuff? like the EeePC or the HP Mini Note?06:32
sunny256Can someone with Ubuntu/Kubuntu 8.10 help me out with a test? Please post the result of an "uuidgen -t", it seems as the clock isn't properly randomized. You can censor the last 12 digits if you want, if you don't want to show the MAC address. It's just the fourth field I'm interested in.06:32

riz0nthey look like they'd be perfect for someone in middle school/high school/college that needs a laptop that fits in their backpack with no weight06:33
pan_or pentesting06:33
macoriz0n: seeing the screen isnt a problem for me in the sense of the size. the trouble is that the screen would be *even lower* because now the top of the screen would be 6" below where it current is and UGH its *hard* to see more than 2 or 3 inches below the top of my current screen06:33
trimetaFezzler: You did do "apt-get install build-essentials," right?06:34
macoi use a 13" laptop. the smallest you can go and have a full-size keyboard06:34
riz0ni think this inspiron i got has a 15" in it06:34
macoits half the weight of my 15"06:34
trimetaAnd yea, as werdnum said, check the config.log file.06:34
jessieLouis: How did that go?06:34
riz0nbelieve it or not, the inspiron (older laptop) has more real estate (screen resolution) than my newer toshiba satellite06:35
Louisjessie:  about to try it out06:35
bullgard4'ip a' lists for ath0 the property 'link/ether' and for wifi0 the property 'link/ieee802.11'. Where are these properties described, what do they mean?06:35

adminngot it07:06
cast|lirfoxwoods: the liveusb image? i'm not sure, it's just a file to be copied directly on overwriting the prior contents, i presume windows can do that. it's a pretty basic operation07:06

Adam-85ubuntu1963UC:  it require lib files  and downloaded it , after that  install other lib....deb , install codeblock debug and other files07:38

laegcast|lir: why?07:46
xjkxFlannel: is it worth upgrading ? I mean, i'm a desktop user, and its not like i need that much stability to love old and over-tested packages, but 8.10 is supported only until 2010, whike 8.04 is supported to 2012. Anyway, ubuntu 8.11 will come and i will be able to upgrade by apt-get and then i will still be supported am i right ? I just DON'T want to download cds and reinstall it, thats all i don't wanna do07:46
ubuntu1963UCupgrading to 807:46
cast|lirlaeg: otherwise it'll copy the entire drive to the mbr.bin file07:47
scizzo-xjkx: you mean 9.0407:47
laegFlannel: i didn't know it was a command, i thought maybe it was the content of the mbr which i would have to edit with nano or something07:47
cast|lirlaeg: which might be funny if mbr.bin is on a filesystem on the drive, but anyway...MBR is only 512 bytes IIRC07:47
Flannelxjkx: 8.11 wont't come out.  10.04 will come out, and you'll be able to upgrade from 8.04 straight to 10.04.  It's up to you.  You have to decide if upgrading is worth it07:47
scizzo-xjkx: or the other release of 8.10?07:47
ubuntu1963UCever wanted to release version07:47
danielitohawodi: well, then probably another instance is already running ;) normally it's no problem to run more instances of apache as long as they listen on different ports07:47
Flannellaeg: No, that's a command that'll back up your MBR to a file.  A later command then takes that file and restores it to the MBR07:48
danielitohawodi: did you configure to run mysql on a different port as well?07:48
stonesFlannel: 9.04 will come out...07:48

Kealbecause the original version of x only used 2kb of machine code11:03
cwilluoCean_, or at least, I thought I was :p11:03
Slartsarmisak: oh.. does that work these days? my nvidia drivers used to mess that up but perhaps it's fixed now11:03
cwilluKeal, linux was written originally to take advantage of the abilities of a 386, a system noted for being able to use more than 640k on a pc :p11:03
SlartKeal: I think the system requirements for any ubuntu these days are more in the range of 64 MB or more11:04
cwilluKeal, a 16kb system is a different problem11:04
sarmisakSlart: it had major problems with my old ATI card connected through DVI, but now its gone.11:04
Kealanyone want to hop on a retro project of mine to make a unix that runs in 16kb?11:04
cwilluSlart, it's worked for me for the last couple releases, presuming you're running a recent'ish driver11:04
sarmisakSlart: nvidia is a better choice in my opinion11:04
alpakaon the keyboard what's the "third level modifier"?11:05
Slartcwillu, sarmisak: oh.. it works.. how nice =)11:05
aoupi_hi, my keyboard 5etting5 are very wrong. keyboard work5 fine in gdm but after 1ogin it'5 1ike the fn key i5 5tuck. If I ho1d the fn key down i can type mo5t 1etter5. i5 there 5ome config fi1e5 i can de1ete to fix thi5?11:05

cwilluaoupi_, find the numberlock key, and hit that and fn- at the same time11:06
Slartaoupi_: laptop?11:06
oCean_cwillu: np, I haven't had enough coffee yet, and it seemed a lot of lines. Sometimes I think, who am I to judge, let the floodbots sort'em out! :)11:06
brieyeeah11:06
aoupi_ Slart ye511:06
Slartalpaka: hmm.. one of the windows keys?11:06
KealSlart how many ctrl, alt, shift, numpad keys do you have?11:06
Slartaoupi_: sounds like you've got numpad enabled11:06
aoupi_cwillu: :D awesome11:06
Kealalso do you have 2 windows keys or 1?11:06
KealSlart*11:06
alpakaSlart: thank you11:07
aoupi_Slart: yea, now it's fixed :)11:07
aoupi_cwillu: thanks!11:07
cwilluSlart, Keal, aoupi_, why ask for more info when you can just guess right the first time? :p11:07
Kealthis problem often happens on laptops that don't have both left and right of all keys11:07
KealSlart*11:07
root______well i'm totally at a loss,  i have a user account that i can not ssh into, and the username is in the  AllowUsers  line of /etc/ssh/sshd_config  the private and public keys were copied over from one box to the other.   the ownership and permissions are correct on .ssh and .ssh/*         ?11:07
SlartKeal: 2 ctrl, 2 shift, one alt, one altgr, 2 windows keys (with flags), 1 weirdo key with some kind of menu on it11:07
cwilluroot______, passwd -u <username> on that machine?11:07
root______it keeps asking for a password.   and there isn't one.11:07
cwilluroot______, account might just be locked11:08
sarmisakcwillu: S key is on the left of the keyboard, the messages were mixed with 5, it's on the letter I usually11:08
root______cwillu of course it's locked11:08
Kealwhere is the 'altgr' located Slart?11:08
root______cwillu all accounts are locked on all my boxen.11:08
SlartKeal: right side of space11:08

cwilluroot______, check /var/log/auth.log on the box11:09
cwillusarmisak, ^^^ I win :p11:09
SlartKeal: yes.. (one more question and I'm googling for "keyboard" and sending you the url)11:09
asadhackeri have a problame in iptable11:09
asadhacker-bash: iptables: command not found11:09
KealSlart: you have "left-ctrl, fn, windows, space, left-alt, menu, right-ctrl" correct?11:09
sarmisakcwillu: applause :D11:09
Kealerm Slart i mean...11:09
KealSlart: you have "left-ctrl, fn, windows, left-alt, space, alt-gr, menu, right-ctrl" correct?11:10
asadhackerno body answer me11:10
root______cwillu ah i see it.  the change in  /etc/passwd is not updated.   it's looking for a non-existant shell11:10
SlartKeal: I have no keys marked fn.. Ctrl Windows Alt Space AltGr Windows WierdMenuKey Ctrl11:10
KealSlart that is a really messsed up layout11:11
Kealthat layout was only used from 92 thru 9611:11
Keali think if i recall correctly11:12
Keallook up your layout by year for ibm keyboards11:12
Kealit is either an ibm or memorex layout11:12
Kealif i recall correctly11:12
SlartKeal: that's the way it came from the store.. here's a pic http://img.hexus.net/v2/gaming/steel/s6g_large_1.jpg11:12
shams<oCean_> there is no support of this type of tv tuner. I've tried to install other device of aver, but no solution...any idea, how to get that work?11:13
Kealyeah that isn't a 102us keyboard11:14
Kealyou are using the 102us driver11:14
SlartKeal: nope11:14
Kealyou are either using the 102us or the 135us driver11:14
Keali forgot what the actual number of keys is for the '135' us tho11:14
Kealyou want to use a british driver11:15
SlartKeal: and googling for "keyboard" and looking at the pictures they all use the same layout as I have..11:15
SlartKeal: and I lied a bit.. my keyboard doesn't look exactly like that.. it's a swedish keyboard11:15
oCean_shams: If there is no support.. that's about it. You can try to get it to work, sure, but it might take a long time before you find anyone that has a working configuration.11:15
Kealthe tilda key is missing and it has a british pound sterling instead of a $11:15
Kealit has 3 alternate keys instead of tilda11:15
Kealin te upper left below esc11:15
Kealin the* Slart11:16
Kealalso it has a different bottom row layout11:16
Kealalt gr could mean grave11:17
shams<oCean_> thks11:17
KealSlart11:17
root_____hmmm no joy.11:17
Keal` <- is a grave, this is the tilda -> ~ they are the regular and shifted versions of the upper left key below esc11:17
SlartKeal: are you going somewhere with this?11:17
root_____i seem to have somewhere disarmed one account in sshd on three boxes   ;/11:18
Kealalso the 3 keys in the row that notches into the carriage return / enter key are wrong, Slart11:19
Kealthey are supposed to be ;: '" and the third key on the right isn't even supposed to be there11:20
Kealthe numeric row should be: `~ 1! 2@ 3# 4$ 5% 6^ 7& 8* 9( 0) -_ =+11:20
KealSlart11:20
Kealalso Slart, your numpad lacks a = key11:21

Slartchristheferal_: and you don't have noscript/adblock/flashblock or such hiding it?11:34
christheferal_can't see any errors11:34
cwilluubundude, look up the debian policy guide, the section on the folder structure, it's good information11:34
christheferal_nope, don't have any extensions installed11:34
christheferal_let me double check though11:34
Slartchristheferal_: and you're using the latest ubuntu? 8.10?11:35
ubundudecwillu: where do i find that?11:35
christheferal_slart: yes11:35
cwillugoogle11:35
cwilludon't have the link handy11:35
nellchristheferal_:what i do was download flash plugin from adobe n installed from terminal11:35
Slartchristheferal_: and you didn't forget one firefox window somewhere? try running pkill firefox in a terminal to kill any processes left behind11:35
xiroVHi all.. I just installed 8.10, and I got problems with making my Graphics driver work.. I have a nvidia 7000m, and apparently it's set as "supported" in both nvidia-glx-177 and nvidia-glx-180, but they doesn't work?11:35
cwilluxiroV, define 'doesn't work'11:36
christheferal_nell: they don't offer AMD64 support for flash11:36
christheferal_slart: I'll try that, hold on11:36
Slartchristheferal_: actually there is the flash 10 beta for 64bit.. but you'll have to go to Adobe labs and download it from there11:37
christheferal_slart: restarted firefox, still isn't working.11:37
nelloh..i don't know then11:37
christheferal_slart: should I uninstall it and go to adobe labs?11:37
xiroVcwillu, well.. they act like nothing happened.. I download and install with synaptic, and when thats done, i restarted, just in case it needed that. And then it just booted up as usually.. i don't see any change at all.. and besides i still only got the 800x600 as the highest resolution.11:37
christheferal_nell: thanks anyway11:37
KealSlart christheferal_ why are you talking about not being able to find something there is no indication of running in the first place?11:37
Slartchristheferal_: nah, using the repos is easier.. you'll get updated versions automatically and so on11:38
edgycwillu: then why all the info in google for dsa says there is no encryption in it!11:38
christheferal_slart: okay, I'm very new to ubuntu, I don't understand how to do this xD11:38
edgycwillu: as if rsa for signing and encryption but dsa for signing only. this is what I, at least, understood11:38
ubundudecwillu: if i said i wanted to use an LVM partition for installing windows XP what would i set this screen to for that partition11:39
ubundudehttp://linuxbsdos.com/wp-content/uploads/ubuntulvm/modifylv/modifylv3.png11:39
cwilluedgy, dsa is a signature algorithm, used to authenticate to ssh.  Encryption happens using symmetric key encryption negotiated afterwards11:39
KealSlart christheferal_ stop talking about not being able to find a process that doesn't exist and there is no evidence at all it does anyways11:39
xiroVcwillu, besides, the last time i tried to get one of the drivers, it said there was a error installing the package..11:39
cwilluubundude, you can't install windows on lvm, windows doesn't have an lvm driver that I know of11:39
nellanyone know to to disable dsl/pppoe?11:39
christheferal_slart: huh??!11:39
Slartchristheferal_: when you install software from the repositories (that is using apt-get, synaptic or Add/Remove) you can update that software very easily.. and also it's checked to work with your version of ubuntu11:39

Slartchristheferal_: when you install it in some other way you'll have to check for updates and such yourself.. so we recommend using the repositories unless you have a special reason11:40
edgycwillu: and this encryption is not part of dsa, unlike rsa, right?11:41
KealSlart keeps baiting the channel and causing massive walls of text11:41
jarcois compiz also available for kde?11:41
christheferal_slart: okay, so to get the beta of the 64-bit version for ubuntu, how should I go about it?11:41
ubundudecwillu: but you can even change the file system to fat32, only linux OS's can exist on an LVM hdd?11:41
bazhangKeal, please stop11:41
cwilluedgy, rsa isn't doing the encryption for the session either11:41
rn0308982i dont see "massive walls of text" here11:41
elkbuntuKeal, you are the problem, not Slart11:41
christheferal_thats what I was thinking lol11:42
Slartchristheferal_: first, uninstall the flashplugin you just installed.. run "sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree"11:42
cwilluedgy, public key encryption is really really slow.  You only use it to exchange the private keys needed to use symmetric encryption, which is way way faster11:42
ubuntu-11:42
christheferal_Slart: okay, done11:42
cwilluubundude, indeed, but that doesn't mean windows can read them.  lvm is kind of a 'meta' fs type11:42
Slartchristheferal_: then you download a file from adobe labs, hang on.. I'll get the url for you11:42
xiroVany guesses about what could be wrong with my graphic card/driver?11:42

root_____not sure if anyone still interested in that tho11:46
cwilluubundude, okay, so make 4 normal partitions11:46
Slartchristheferal_: ok, put that file into the folder ~/.mozilla/plugins11:46
cwilluubundude, you don't need lvm to do that11:46
tom_eats_livesanyone mange to get ubuntu working on an " asus eee top" ?11:46
Keal... balle_11:46
edgycwillu: when I read the two articles about rsa and dsa in wikipedia for example, encryption is mentioned in rsa entry with details but for dsa entry no encryption is mentioned at all. this confused me, so now you are saying rsa and dsa are only for signing then ... still confused ;)11:46
christheferal_Slart: k, newb question, where do I find that folder xD11:46
Slartchristheferal_: that is the .mozilla folder in your home folder.. it might be hidden if you're using Nautilus.. press ctrl+H to see hidden folders11:46
ubundudecwillu: the idea of resizing any of those was the solution to guessing how much i would need or not need11:46
Kealballe_ is this mythtv for ubuntu or myth3d for ubuntu?11:47
Slartchristheferal_: ~ = your home folder11:47
cwilluedgy, they're only used for authentication in ssh11:47
Slartchristheferal_: ie /home/christheferal or whatever your username is11:47
christheferal_Slart: that's what I thought, wasn't showing11:47
christheferal_Slart: got it now11:47
cwilluubundude, gparted should be able to handle what you need11:47

cwilluubundude, it's also on the ubuntu live/install cd11:47
edgycwillu: and what's used for encryption in the connection?11:47
Slartchristheferal_: then try to restart firefox and see if youtube works11:47
balle_Keal: well it is like xubuntu but with the mythTV thing i guess...11:48
christheferal_Slart: .mozilla/extensions? I can't find a plugins folder11:48
cwilluedgy, man ssh, then type:  /encrypt<enter> and use n and N to skip forward and back11:48
Slartchristheferal_: then try creating it , "mkdir plugins" in a terminal11:48
christheferal_Slart: k, restarting ff11:49
ubundudecwillu: i mean resizing partions down the road after i already have everything set up and OSes installed11:49
root_____edgy <root_____> ok after several changes made and testing ubuntu dapper and debian lenny    scp user1@host1:file user2@host2:path    will work with passwordless public keys   but not with password protected public keys. <root_____> not sure if anyone still interested in that tho11:49
cwilluubundude, gparted can resize stuff :p11:49
christheferal_Slart: Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.11:49
Slartchristheferal_: ok.. go to Tools, Add-ons in firefox.. look at the "plugins" tab11:50
root_____edgy i don't like passwordless public sshkeys   but it does work that way11:50
christheferal_Slart: oh, maybe its not enabled11:50

christheferal_Slart: I see many plugins, I see Shockwave Flash, but its 9.0, not 10 beta11:50

allquixoticIf I have 4GB of RAM and (running linux-generic kernel) 'free' reports 3GB of RAM, is the other 1GB being used by the kernel? Or is 1GB of my physical RAM not being used by any process?12:16
Samus_AranBoohbah: no, it is not.  look it up in a dictionary  =)12:16
Samus_Aranallquixotic: if you have more than around 3.5GB of RAM on a 32bit kernel, you need to use PAE12:16
SlartBoohbah: just google for "virii".. I think wikipedia has a pretty decent page about it12:16
jaspionhi... i don't start fingerprint on my notebook..... somebody help me?12:17
Samus_Aranallquixotic: the only way to get PAE on Ubuntu 32bit is to either recompile the stock kernels, or use the server kernel package12:17
Samus_Aranallquixotic: the server kernel package has some other downsides, however (no preempt, a I/O scheduler which is not good for desktop responsiveness, etc.)12:17
Samus_Aranallquixotic: upgrading to 64bit if possible is a far better solution12:17
Gautamroot i want asked another thing if any case virus in my pantdrive than virus will not enter my system or not12:17

bazhangGautam, into ubuntu? no.12:18
allquixoticSamus_Aran: I was aware of the effects of -server kernel, as well as 64-bit... thanks for info... my question was mainly about what the kernel configs say is the 3G/1G split, i.e. the kernel gets 1GB of address space and userspace gets 3G... I was wondering if it could actually address all 4GB of RAM without HIGHMEM_64G enabled (i.e. PAE)12:18

Samus_Aranallquixotic: you can't use a full 4GB without PAE.  if I recall correctly, you lose ~800MB of the 4GB12:19
allquixoticSlart: my Crestline chipset is on UMA, so it steals 128MB of the 4GB address space... ah... no wonder it can't address the full 4GB with only 32-bit pagetables! :)12:19

Samus_Aranallquixotic: in Firefox, about half the time when a YouTube video loads, there is no picture, just audio.  reloading sometimes takes 6-7 tries to get a picture, once this happens12:23
allquixoticSamus_Aran: Actually I'm sort of a power user hacker on Second Life :) I am talking to Michelle2 Zenovka (the maintainer of omvviewer) on EFnet right now... capitanterrex maintains a PPA of SL release candidates, native 64-bit builds for Ubuntu >= 8.04, based on Michelle's source code.12:23

bazhangjaspion, please dont recommend that here12:25
allquixoticSamus_Aran: As you probably know, SL is open source now, so Michelle and anyone else is free to create their own builds :) Michelle has integrated OpenAL instead of FMOD, more system libs instead of shipping the world with the package, native system fonts... it works great12:25
jaspionbazhang why not?12:25
hatter243quik__, just make a cron line that says something like "echo test > /home/<yourname>/testfile.txt" without the quotes12:25

bazhangjaspion, no need for it; ubuntu uses sudo12:25
Samus_Aranallquixotic: I did not know it was open source now, no.  I don't see how that could work, when it is a commercial program which is earning tons of money12:25
allquixoticSamus_Aran: All you have to do, to install it on Ubuntu, is bring up capitanterrex's PPA and install omvviewer12:25
bazhang!sudo | jaspion12:25

allquixoticSamus_Aran: The profit potential, for Linden Lab, is all bundled-up in the wire protocol and the effects that network activity have on their servers (you know, people buying stuff...) so they couldn't care less if someone modifies the viewer. The protocols are hard to fudge.12:26

BoohbahSamus_Aran, Slart: on a related note, did you know the plural of forum is fora?12:30
Samus_Arandoes anyone know why a real text console (e.g. TTY2) might not have high intensity colours, remapping the bright colours to their darker counterparts ?  (e.g. yellow -> brown, white -> bright grey, dark grey -> black)12:30
Samus_AranBoohbah: nope12:31
scuniziCpplus, ah.. gotcha.. I never really looked for that.. it's like that on my hardy and intrepid install.  no native resolution that is.12:31
allquixoticSamus_Aran: Exactly. The basic "simulator" software is open source too; however, a large part of the server side is still very much LL's secret. The protocols for interfacing with the grid are well-understood now (see the libsecondlife project), but people who try to run SL servers have no integration into the main grid; no physics engine; no scripts... lots of limitations.;12:31
jribCpplus: what does your /etc/initramfs-tools/modules contain now?12:31
SlartBoohbah: nope.. but after looking it up just now I do =)12:31

Samus_Aranallquixotic: e.g. Quake 4 or Savage 212:34
scuniziCpplus, not a big issue for me.. I don't live at the console but do like to take a trip there once in a while.12:34
allquixoticSamus_Aran: I'm on Jaunty x86 -server (PAE) with 6GB of RAM, Core i7, running x86 build of omvviewer, Nvidia GTX 280... I can get steady FPS with maximum graphics settings in SL... it almost never dips below 20 FPS, and average is about 4012:34
allquixoticSamus_Aran: Sure, it's not able to hit the vsync dead-on, but it's imperceptibly slow because I've always used 3d games at about 20 - 40 fps... this is my first chance at having high end hardware :)12:35
Samus_Aranallquixotic: what is a GTX 280 in comparison to a GeForce 8600 GTS ?12:35
Gotu1>sudo su after press enter12:35
Samus_Aranallquixotic: and I would find it heavenly to get 20 FPS.  it's so annoyingly slow that I don't use Second Life12:36
allquixoticSamus_Aran: 1 GB of VRAM and ~930 Gigaflops versus 256MB of VRAM and ~113 Gigaflops12:36
Samus_AranI just load it up now and then to see if it still is pathetically slow12:36
allquixoticSamus_Aran: The bigger stats being the GTX 280 obviously ;)12:36
Samus_Aranthe graphics are not impressive enough to require a super-computer12:37
Gotu1and giving the password after press enter and got massege cammand not found12:37
allquixoticSamus_Aran: For the purposes of SL and the OpenGL extensions it uses, both your card and mine support the same OpenGL extensions natively on the chip... the only difference is the raw processing power available12:37
jribCpplus: did you try the suggestions at the end regarding using uvesafb instead of vesafb?12:37
Samus_Aranmy system is above average and Second Life still runs pathetically slowly12:37
paul68Samus_Aran: how do I do this upgrade to openoffice from the console?12:37
Cpplusscunizi, me neither, but a working tty is handy from time to time :P12:37
scuniziCpplus, yep.. just got mutt up and working with my gmail account..12:37
jribGotu1: did you do what I asked?  Did you pastebin the command you ran and the output?12:38
Samus_Aranpaul68: download the .tar.bz2 file from openoffice.org for .deb (32bit or 64bit).  extract the package: tar xvjf something.tar.bz2, then cd into the directory it creates, then: dpkg --install *deb */*deb12:38
scuniziCpplus, nice to know  a few apps that run at terminal level just in case the gui takes a dump12:38
allquixoticSamus_Aran: I don't think Nvidia's Linux drivers are very efficient. They're quite featureful, but not terribly efficient. On a tiny Intel 965GM with the new Jaunty graphics stack (Intel GEM, Mesa 7.3), which is about 30x slower than a GTX 280, I can get steady 25 FPS in omvviewer...12:38
Samus_Aranpaul68: but first make sure you uninstall OpenOffice.org 2.x, so there are no overlapping files12:38
allquixoticSamus_Aran: The raw processing power of the 965GM is _tiny_, and it's running on an ultraportable laptop with only 4GB of RAM on a 667Mhz bus... but it's performant!12:39
allquixoticSamus_Aran: The Intel drivers are very efficient though12:39
Cpplusjrib, yup I did. I'm beginning to wonder if specific videocards are bugged by this12:39
paul68Samus_Aran: ok12:39
christheferal_slart I g2g now12:39
Cpplusscunizi, yup12:39
jribCpplus: In my case, I had the issue in gutsy and never again since then12:39
christheferal_slart thanks for the help though :)12:39
Samus_Aranallquixotic: as I said, I can run other new games without any slowdowns.  it's just second life that is crap.  =/12:39
jribCpplus: what card do you have?12:39
filmoreOooohhh! New kernel out. And it looks like they've been working on backlight issues! Yay!12:40
Samus_Aranallquixotic: I have been thinking to buy an Intel next time, as I love the open source nature of their drivers.  truly open source, not just pretend open source like AMD/ATI  =p12:40
allquixoticSamus_Aran: Try omvviewer. I wouldn't be surprised if Nvidia has performance problems with running 32-bit 3d games on a 64-bit kernel. omvviewer has performance improvement patches to begin with, but running on the native architecture would be an additional boost :)12:40
ari_stresshi guys, how do i prevent bash to record duplicate command line?12:40
Samus_Aranallquixotic: can you give me the URL again so I can look into that ?12:40

ari_stressXk2c_: i notice in .bashrc it's already there, but why duplicates are still occuring?12:43
allquixoticnicolae_: It's not quite like that. It's called help and be helped. I ask questions all the time, and answer them all the time. Share what you know and ask what you don't.12:43
scuniziadub, you can try with ndiswrapper.  I've never done it but I understand it can be a pain.. broadcom in not always good for compatibility.. might be less frustration if you get something with an atheros chipset..12:43
allquixoticnicolae_: It's almost like a wiki, except real-time.12:43

I have to share a linux app. data file with the community but I dont't like the megaupload like sites because of the little respect for the intellectual property of this kind of sites. Ufortunately I don't have my own host to share it, do you have any suggetion for this problem?12:43

allquixoticGianpon: As long as you are _reasonably_ certain that you aren't violating any international laws or anything, and you don't want access control (i.e. anyone can go download it), I can host your file over HTTP, while allowing you to modify/upload it again over FTP12:49
jribslap_stick: sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun   sorry12:49
DapperDanielI guess I'll ask my question then. I've been trying to install freeNX on 6.06, which meant installing ConsoleKit. I finally got all the prereqs installed but it keeps giving me errors when I compile about dbus_g_type_struct being undeclared. Obviously I do have dbus installed though. Any ideas?12:49
scunizimick02, might also try ##linux12:50
slap_stickjrib: ok, wow there's quite a lot to this12:50
gfatheris there a # for ubuntu mid ?12:50
allquixoticDapperDaniel: dbus_g_type_struct sounds like it's part of dbus-1-glib library, you need to have the -dev packages installed12:50
jribmick02: I'm merely telling you, that you should repeat your question later instead of saying "can anyone help me?" since people who just read "can anyone help me?" have no idea what you are talking about12:50

allquixoticGianpon: Sourceforge, PPA, etc. tend to be for sharing software, yes... I'm not sure about "data", or "content", it depends on what type. Most services want to charge you a fee for that.13:05

catbootedBoohbah: how do i check if it's my machine's software fault?13:06
allquixoticDapperDaniel: My research indicates that the libdbus-glib-1-dev package which you installed _should_ have the requested dbus_g_type_struct type, but it doesn't _because_ the version of that package in 6.06 is too old: http://rafb.net/p/2soVUd48.html13:07

scunizicatbooted, did you try to set a static ip at one point?13:11
catbootedscunizi: not at all13:12
allquixoticDapperDaniel: You do realize, that it's not your package manager which is providing an out of date version of the library; it's your _distribution version_ (6.06) which is providing an outdated version of the library. If you want to compile it from source using the upstream, you could get it from http://dbus.freedesktop.org/releases/dbus-glib/13:12
catbootedscunizi: i use a home ADSL connection and my dns is allocated dynamically every time i start my computer13:12
catbootedscunizi: just after today's package upgrade (mainly kde 4.2 packages) and a reboot, my network can't directly resolve domain names13:13

scunizicatbooted, looks to be because it's not listing the dns servers in resolf.conf.. you could just plug them in there and be done with it probably.13:14

syockitI accidentally downloaded desktop iso instead of alternate. How do I enable LVM in the installer?13:15
DapperDanielallquixotic: Fair enough. I'm only using 6.06 until a new serverbox comes in. This is an old beater box that didn't want anything higher than 6.06 running.13:15
scunizisyockit, I don't think you can on the desktop cd.. I think that is specific to the alternate.13:15

hatter243catbooted2, sudo network-admin13:18
catbooted2hatter243: command not found13:18
scunizimmm4m5m, you have to manually add it to /etc/fstab13:18
lostboy1mmm4m5m: try "sudo udevadm trigger" then "sudo udevadm settle"13:18
scunizimmm4m5m, use sudo blkid to find the uuid of all your partitions.. pick the new one and list it in fstab13:19
hatter243catbooted2, bleargh. Alright, in resolv.conf enter nameserver 208.67.222.222 and nameserver 208.67.220.220   those are both the nameservers of opendns13:19

hatter243catbooted2, after that "sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0" without the quotes, provided your internet connection is named eth013:20

catbooted2hatter243: good! it works now13:20
jribperlsyntax: apt-cache search -n python wxgtk13:20
hatter243catbooted2, one more step, you need to edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf and add the following line to it "prepent domain-name-servers 208.67.222.222,208.67.220.220;" so that it'll stick around if you reboot13:21

fosco_!sound | rn030898213:21

mmm4m5mlostboy1: udevadm - command not found13:21
lostboy1mmm4m5m: yes, udev doesn't know when you create new partitions, so it doesn't create the by-uuid etc... if you want to be sure, do the udevadm trigger and settle, that simulat3es a reboot (as far as new partitions go)13:22
lostboy1mmm4m5m: it will force udev to reread all the disks and recreate the by-uuid and other symlinks13:22
hatter243catbooted2, ah, don't worry about that eth0=eth0 thing13:23
hatter243catbooted2, but you will need that prepend line13:23
mmm4m5mlostboy1: I think I will reboot. Looks like bug in gparted. I did not "delete,create,format" - it works, yesterday I did that way. Today, I just click on another ntfs partition and select "format as ext3"13:23
catbooted2hatter243: i just think all this manual hack is weird. is there a way to get a fresh-out-of-the-box network configuration? i guess "sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-manager"?13:24
askandIn what log can I check what is causing a kernwlpanic?13:24
lostboy1mmm4m5m: why not run udevadm trigger and udevadm settle?13:25
mmm4m5mlostboy1: udevadm - command not found13:25
lostboy1mmm4m5m: that's really the only reason to reboot13:25
lostboy1mmm4m5m: what version of ubuntu?13:25
mmm4m5mgutsy13:25
hatter243catbooted2, hrm... I don't know, it might be that wherever you're getting your dhcp from has some terrible ideas about which dns servers you should be using. In that case, it's not anything wrong with your computer at all13:25
lostboy1mmm4m5m: then try udevtrigger13:26
lostboy1mmm4m5m: and udevsettle13:26
catbooted2hatter243: last question: how long can these opendns ips remain working?13:26
hatter243catbooted2, if you don't type that prepend line into your dhclient.conf then it will remain in effect until you restart your computer.13:27
catbooted2hatter243: since the bad dns server was generated by NetworkManager, could it be that my NetworkManager needs some fix?13:27
catbooted2hatter243: i mean, these opendns servers, will they go down or blocked?13:27
Picicatbooted2: OpenDNS has been online for a few years now, no problems thus far13:29
gmathewsscunizi: No problems - I found what i was looking for - wanted to see from what servers ubuntu is connecting to update etc13:29
hatter243catbooted2, the opendns servers won't go away. I doubt that networkmanager generated that bad dns server. That resolv.conf file is generated when you get a dhcp address with the dns servers that the dhcp server tells you. Either your dhcp server isn't telling you anything or it's telling you the wrong thing. Check with your router and see what it thinks the dns servers should be.13:29
mmm4m5mlostboy1: can you please tell me how to run udevtrigger with subsystem (--subsystem-match=subsystem)13:29
catbooted2Pici: i guess my NetworkManager, resolv.conf and dhclient.conf need reconfiguration to revert to their initial states13:29

catbooted2another question: this "resolv.conf", is it updated every time i restart computer?13:35
Cpplusjrib, uvesafb was loaded but from dmesg I got that it couldn't reserve video memory, so vesafb kept overriding it13:35

hatter243catbooted2, yes it is, with the results of the dhcp request. With that "prepend" line, it will put those entries first in resolv.conf whenever a dhcp server replys with dns addresses13:36

booksbuggyshadesslayer, what exactly are you trying to do? reconfigure shortcut keys?14:10
Slartshadeslayer: oh, come on.. let that enter key rest a while14:10
hatter243ubuntu234, debian will not recognize any of those packages as compatible with it. The ubuntu packages are tagged as "Intrepid Main" or somesuch, much different from Debian's.... Lenny was it?14:10
shadeslayerlol14:10
ubuntu234I am not on debian14:10
h1v3hatter243: i have it as a package available in synaptic, if this is what you mean. i even tried splashy, which is based on another libs, it behaves almost the same, only the booting freezes a little after enabling the nice image (rather than before), so i get to see the image. this certainly means it's a lower-level problem, like driver-related, what do you thinK?14:10
ubuntu234let me explain14:10
nickrudshadeslayer, you'd need to use xmodmap14:10
shadeslayerjust that the keyboard gets screwed up in long sentences14:10

booksbuggywell at least i haven't found any14:16
booksbuggynickrud, shadeslayer, this computer can only do wired connection XD14:17
nickrudshadeslayer, anyway, if you identify some you can go to  /apps/metacity/keybindings and keybindings_commands and associate apps to those. Use 0x000 as keybindings14:17
shadeslayer??14:17
Sega_Dudeyour kidding?14:17

Veratyr9Sega_Dude: i never got it to work, but ther are people that did with ndiswrapper14:19
shadeslayeri am in console right now14:19
h1v3hatter243: what if i add not vga=, wouldn't that default to a resolution that is low enough?14:19
moepmaneverytime i close the lid of my laptop, the screen goes dark and will not return to a working state, no matter what i try14:19
nickrudshadeslayer, but the idea is the same, #kubuntu can give you the right tool names to assign actions to keys14:19
shadeslayerno one responds there14:19
booksbuggyshadeslayer, alt+ F2 is suppose to open run14:19
fosco_fw1: yes, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade && lsb_release -a14:19

shadeslayermaboughey: whats the laptop OEM14:20
nickrudshadeslayer, the basic idea is to assign the value provided by xev to an action; when you press the key the action will happen. Find the tool, shadeslayer  ;)14:20
booksbuggyshadeslayer, alt+ F2 gksudo gedit gconf-editor14:20

Sega_Dudeyes. If I click enable it says download driver for like a second then goes away even if i;m connected to the internet.14:27
Circlefusionkhuraam: so you have ubuntu server and you want to setup WAMP with cpanel? Are you starting from scratch?14:27
Veratyr9nickrud: compiz? i've never done anything outside the basic realm of ubuntu, it's always worked on other machines flawlessly for me14:27
Circlefusionkhuraam: scratch that.........I meant LAMP :-)14:28
moepmaneverytime i close the lid of my laptop, the screen goes dark and will not return to a working state, no matter what i try14:28
nickrudVeratyr9, usually compiz (wobbly windows, shadows, etc) are enabled whenever you install fglrx. And often it exposes bugs with particular chip sets.14:28
h1v3moepman: just kidding. :P you may want to take a look at ubuntu menu / system / preferences / screen actions. please return and tell me if this helped you.14:29

prince_jammysjhava1: ask again. and you don't have to wait as long as an hour17:34
unopJesman, errm, not really .. fetchmail was designed to just download mail to a local mailbox - that's what it does primarily, but it can also be configured to forward mail on to another account .. in which case, it uses the MTA (which can be postfix, but not necessarily) to send mail.17:34

LakesProsea931bw: is your audio card usb or pci ? cause what you posted ealier indicated you have nvidia and you claim having realtek17:52
bbeebbooppdefine big17:52
jim_pa931bw, nvidia is the maker, realtek is the chipset provider. will you give me some time? your card is 100% alsa supported, do you use pulseaudio?17:52

LakesProsea931bw: what jim_p, I'm only half-smart..17:53
jim_pdmi3on, debian stable is older compared to ubuntu, both for the server part, but debian stable is rock stable. depends on what you need and on your hardware sometimes17:53

pike_dmi3on: im not going to argue that ubuntu is as security conscious but really the only time youd notice is when looking in /etc/apt/sources.list17:54
LakesProsejim_p: nothing, I forgot that realtek was the chipset provider..17:54
jim_pa931bw, go to System > Preferences > Sound and set everything to alsa17:54

LakesProseharlemdavvey1:  so preceise ey!18:01
pike_Marvin1: no the cli tool is apt-get18:02

Marvin1pike_: apt-get for package management.... how about general config?18:02
harlemdavvey1LakesProse: ok.. i'll tell you when i'll have found18:02
jim_pis it true that the devs kicked network manager out of 9.04?18:02
pike_Marvin1: not that im aware.  the thing is in a debian type distro if you want to reconfigure something you typically just do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure <packagename>18:03
LakesProseharlemdavvey1:  all right, sorry for confusion, I dont have a linux OS in front of me right now :(18:03
a931bwHOW?18:04

jim_pa931bw, i dont have mixxx or vlc. and please highlight me next time18:04
LakesProseharlemdavvey1: I hate this keyboard - anyways - it's extra special effects18:05
pike_Marvin1: there are a ton of front ends in the repos though for specific stuff18:05
ubuntu1963UCin front of it ?18:05
LakesProseharlemdavvey1: oh yeah! it also depends what version of ubuntu you have, older ones don't have 'special effects' installed by default18:05
jim_pmanu__, !!! hi mate !!!18:06

Izinucsburg: that should get you to the live cd desktop.. at least it did on my machine.  Once installed you have to use the live cd to edit /boot/grub/menu.list to add the same thing to the kernel lines listed there.18:28

ubottuTo replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --disable-columns --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate19:43

Louis_I'd like to be able to turn off my server just by hitting the main power button once (without having to confirm or anything... just one push and it turns off).  I have pastebinned my /etc/acpi/powerbtn (http://paste.ubuntu.com/110975/) and /etc/acpi/powerbtn.sh (http://paste.ubuntu.com/110977/) scripts here.  Can anyone help?  I can only modify this via the command line as it is a mythv server.19:45

TheFunkbombmaco, are you talking about cgmail or thunderbird?19:49
Izinucsmaco: thanks.. that was my next step19:49
z32kyleI have a machine with 6gb or ram and program that is 32bit, i need to limit the ram to 3gb while i use this program. Can I edit the kernel boot params at boot time to do this?19:49
macoTheFunkbomb: cgmail is "check gnome mail" (works in xfce too i believe) and it can check a pop or imap server for new mail every few minutes and tell you there's a new mail. i used it for a long time without a desktop mail client to check my gmail19:49

ubuntu_ok so im a total noob here, and im in the middle of an install, im trying to save all my data which i have on /dev/sda6, i need to format /dev/sda5 as /boot, when i went to do that, i got a pop up message stating "the file system on /dev/sda5 assigned to /boot has not been marked for formatting. directories containing system files(/boot,/ect,/usr,/var,...) that already exist under any defined mountpoint will be beleted during the in19:51

EmericaIs grub capable of sending commands to a serial port before loading an os? I know console output can be redirected on serial, but can I send custom data without the redirection? I just need to send a single string @ 115200bps, 8 databits, no parity, 1 stop bits, no flow control19:51

excosince some recent update my krusader looks like this (no titlebar) http://img90.imageshack.us/my.php?image=krusadernq4.png (or is that just some fullscreen mode I don't know how to get out of?)19:52
macoubuntu_: its just telling you to hit the "format" checkbox on the /boot line19:52
Izinucsz32kyle: I don't run 64bit but I remember "listening" here that you need something like ia32libs and a setup so you can run 32 bit on a 64 bit system. nothing is involved with the kernel line19:52
ubuntu_maco: thats not going to delete any data on any other partitions correct?19:53
ubuntu1963UCi'm fairly new partitions, so it might depend on how to upgrade from 819:53
macoubuntu_: only the ones you mark for formatting will be formatted.19:53

j-b-r8.1020:32
lantjieisn't anybody there20:32
leonardo_forceflow: i thought about that... but, if i've the files.. why i cant play it exactly as with the DVD? (on the computer)20:32
forceflowthe Video_TS folder should contain the MPEG files, I think20:33
macdj-b-r, open a console type "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy"20:33
leonardo_forceflow: no there isnt mpeg files, just .VOB20:34
macdVOB =mpeg.20:34
leonardo_forceflow: if I do, xine VIDEO_TS/20:34
Soletmacd: if i change XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="%HOME/Desktop/" in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs, will that make ~/Desktop my desktop directory?20:34
leonardo_it plays =)20:34
mihahello guys, if i print pdf from evince, i get extra trash like @PJL SET MANUALFEED ON... it's HP LaserJet 6L, using Foomatic/ljet4 driver, any ideas? (remote printing over samba from windows using ....adobe postscript driver i think works)20:34
macdleonardo_, burn the video_ts and audio_ts to the root of a DVD, iot will play in any DVD player.20:34
forceflowbecause VOB is indeed MPEG20:34
MercHi, I just did sudo apt-get install proftpd, during installation I got prompted with two choices, standalone and some other, I chose the other.. now /etc/proftpd.conf does not exist, and when I do /etc/init.d/proftpd restart I get ProFTPd is started from inetd/xinetd20:34
mihaand there is random line of character over each page20:34
leonardo_macd: ok =)20:34

macdSolet, that doesnt sound too dangerous, and should give you what you want20:35
j-b-rI had to install a different package than nvidia-glx-legacy20:35
sweetgumif ive installed the ubuntu tftp server where can i find the folder to put my files i want stored on it? i cnat find a folder called tftp20:35
leonardo_for all, to play dvd files do: xine VIDEO_TS/20:35
j-b-rBecause that one doesn;t exist, it's just a virtual package or whatever20:35
leonardo_then with xine's menu20:35
leonardo_you select the subtitle, audio and chapters =)20:36
leonardo_it's working fine for me here20:36

j-b-rWhy don't I see the driver in the driver manager like I'm supposed to anyway?20:43
baz_what the apt package name for *OpenSSH*?20:43
macdj-b-r, try just changing the driver directive to "nv", OR try using "nvidia-settings" (also installable via apt)20:44
skinofstars1baz: ssh20:44
Picibaz_: Er, the client and server are both in main20:44
macdj-b-r, I dont think the drive manager relly supports the older cards, aside from that, its not perfect software.20:44
j-b-rI've done the nvidia settings thing, but let me try doing that again and then changing it to nv20:44

baz_Pici, so excuse my idiocy but how come I need a client too? I have been ssh'ing into remote boxes using the command-line "ssh"... is that not a client?20:47
Picibaz_: That is the client20:47
Izinucsmacd: i had no idea.. new to all this transcoding stuff.20:47
macdIzinucs, uncheck the box, as well Izinucs in the prefernces area there is a check for all required software and directory rip premissions, Id run that test.20:47

jaapvisserdoes any body know what the default buildir (--builddir) is for ubuntu when compling C applications ?20:48
baz_Pici, ok, so the client comes by default with ubuntu... so when i "apt-get ssh" it just checks that its there, see it, then only installs the server since I already have it.... right?20:48
macdIzinucs, again if I had one in front of me I could check a few more things, maybe Pici has a workstation with it installed ;)20:49

jimi_hendrixskinofstars1, flashplugin-nonfree21:24
jef_buntu_ViperBorg: didn't find?21:24
PodMan99a1guntbert, so none of the old packages are hosted ne more?21:24
skinofstars1jimi: what sites aren't working21:24
skinofstars1jimi:er, what distro do you have? 64?21:24
ViperBorgjef_buntu_, Nope, nothing yet. Sorry. Have you tried posting a thread on the forums about it?21:24
PodMan99a1!upgrade21:24
ubottuFor upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes21:24
^Migs^where can I find Ubuntu 1.0?21:25
ViperBorg^Migs^, BitTorrent, maybe?21:25
guntbertPodMan99a1: I don't know how long they provide the old repos, but see !eol21:25
jimi_hendrixskinofstars1, hardy 6421:25
macd^Migs^, the oldest available officially is Dapper, 6.06 based on the 2.2 series of kernels.21:26
_Vi_Does anyone here have issues with Kubuntu 8.10 going into a (this is the best i can describe it)...."graphic glitch loop" where it shows only like half the screen and continues to "roll" the screen in a loop?21:26
skinofstars1jimi: 64 has had problems with the flash plugin in the past. do you know if you are using the 64 version? perhaps get the 64 version from adobe21:26
jef_buntu_ViperBorg: i think that's the only hope left21:26
shizumasa14I'm having a problem with terminal.  Can someone help me?21:26
UnknownFearhi21:26
Cpudan80not till we know what the problem with the terminal is! :-)21:27
UnknownFeardoes anyone know how to play music from your iPod Touch using Amarok?21:27
ViperBorgjef_buntu_, It might be your best bet. Your post may be seen by someone more knowledgeable. Not everyone hops on IRC here. Best of luck to you.21:27
j-b-rOk, still having nvidia problem, but at least now I have the relevant error messages to put in the pastebin21:27
shizumasa14When I try to do sudo I get an error that says:  E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct this problem.21:28
fanfinifinfonhi. i added "* * * * * /etc/init.d/samba start" to crontab of root, stopped samba and observed the result. samba did not start again. why?21:28
_Vi_shizumasa14: so try 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'  NO quotes21:28
macdfanfinifinfon, I cant think of any reason you would ever want todo that21:28
jimi_hendrixskinofstars1, i went to their site and downloaded the .deb...its for i38621:28
Cpudan80fanfinifinfon: Why would it restart ?21:28
jef_buntu_ViperBorg: thanks, ill be trying a forum for the first time now21:28
^Migs^you have to samba start after you stop it21:29
guntbertfanfinifinfon: why would you want to start samba every minute?21:29
Cpudan80fanfinifinfon: It should only restart - given that config - when you reboot the computer21:29
shizumasa14thx21:29
sampointonhi, I'm having some performance troubles with Hardy. After a little while of usage (1-2 hours) the system's bogged down and slow to do anything. The only thing so far to fix it is a reboot (restarting gdm doesn't fix the problem; at first I suspected some kind of memory leak because Xorg looked like it was hogging resources, but that might just be how it is). How do I track down what the problem is? top doesn't show anything imme21:29
sampointondiately suspicious besides Xorg21:29
fanfinifinfoni did it because if samba stops somehow, i want it to restart automatically21:29
ThexLeopardhello all, i recently changed my sound card and now i can only get rhythmbox to play sound... is there any way i can enable the new sound card and disable the onboard one?21:29
ofix-comphello21:29
christian__hey hi21:29
skinofstars1jimi: you need x86_6421:29
fanfinifinfoni want it to be up everytime.21:29
^Migs^uh...21:29
Cpudan80oh nevermind that was wrong21:29
fanfinifinfoneven if it stops accidentaly, it should restart immediately21:29
^Migs^I wouldn't do that21:29
Cpudan80I read that config line wrong ..21:29
^Migs^why would it stop accidentally?21:29
macdfanfinifinfon, then you need to write a schell script to check for sambas PID, then restart if its stopped, and run that every few minutes.21:29
ofix-compdoes anyone know any nice program to create nice fliers21:30
^Migs^yeah, macd has the right idea21:30

fanfinifinfonblushadem: i'm not going to be next to the samba server. it has to restart immediately if it fails. i'll check the results possibly at the end of the day21:32

Soletis there a good article that anyone (or the bot) knows of for getting hibernation to work right in intrepid (using gnome), i've read up on it a little and so far all i see are problems out the wazoo21:41
ofix-compscribus looks nice21:41
macdSolet, welcome to linux ;)21:41
schnitzpaul: look up kdenlive in your repositories. but it will probably not open an ogg.21:41
macdSolet, suspend to disk seems to work better, though not quite hibernating still pretty loe power use21:42
princeduganxrandr shows I only have one screen21:42
youseiHow would I get to a terminal window when my monitor can't show the resolution macd ?21:42
Ubundudeif I boot into ubuntu and after the login screen it displays only my background and desktop, how do I get my panels to come up?21:42
macdyousei, reboot into non-graphical mode.21:42

zubairHi ... How do i cancel ping response in bash?21:43
step21hey, is there a x86 to x86_64 cross compile somewhere in ubuntu repos?21:43
Soletmacd: when i hit suspend thismorning and put laptop in bag, it was quite warm when i pulled it out. i dont always use it, i woudlnt want to keep it suspended in it's bag for 3-4 days. that'd be bad21:43
youseiI'll just stop asking how here.. I don't think I'm going to get this running anyway21:43
IndyGunFreakUbundude: did you delete them?21:43
youseithanks anyway macd21:43
smhi, where can I get a postgresql 8.2 package for intrepid ?21:43
macdSolet, for sure. I havent had any luck with hibernate + ati/nvidia drivers, or intel wifi.21:43
UbundudeIndy: no they just don't display once I'm awhile after I log in21:44
schnitzsm: you could look up the deb archive found through debian.org21:44
guntbertzubair: <ctrl>c21:44
Soletmacd: do you know what vid drivers eeebuntu uses?21:44
zubairguntbert... thanks21:45
schnitzit should be an inteldriver21:45
smschnitz: I have been searching the ubuntu packages on launchpad and packages.ubuntu.com, they are confusing and all seem to end up at hardy packages. Might those work ?21:45
guntbertzubair: np:)21:45
schnitzsm:yes they might.21:45
macdSolet, Solet what model eee pc?21:45
smI guess I'll try adding hardy to sources.list and install, thanks21:46
schnitzsm:or you could try to download the deb-archive itself.21:46
macdSolet, nevermind, I see Intel GMA 9xx gfx, and intel wifi, good luck with that one ;)21:46
macdSolet, try the ubuntu forums for eeebuntu yet?21:47
macdsm, intrepid only has pgsql 8.3.21:48
skinofstars1solet: for eeepc use the array.org kernel21:48
smmacd: yes, that's my problem21:48
smneed to try an older pg21:48
macdsm, then I suggest installing from source.21:48
LakesProseso, I can't seem to find, even with Google helping around, how to implement 2 factor security: public/private key + password. Anyone have a lead for me ?21:48
macdsm, or dont use intrepid21:48
kev_whats the latest kernel version for 8.10? 2.6.28.2?21:49
smtoo late.. thanks21:49
macdLakesProse, the same process for key based ssh logins, ONLY supply the password during that process of creating a key.21:49
guntbertkev_: I have 2.6.27-9-generic21:50
Soletskinofstars1: i am using the array.org kernel, that's what comes with eeebuntu now21:50
kev_i thought there was a 2.6.29?21:50
Soletmacd: checked lsmod, my vid driver is intel_agp21:50
kev_www.kernel.org21:50
LakesProsemacd:  that wouldnt work because server can't enforce number of tries for example. I mean, I'd want to have a system where someone must have the key and also a password whose validity is confirmed by the server21:50
Soletcant figure out what the wifi one is21:50
skinofstars1solet: oh, i'm using normal intrepid with array.org and it works well on my 90121:51
LakesProsemacd: sorta like the normal user/password challenge you get in ssh but add in having to have the key21:51
macdLakesProse, yeah using a password protected key isnt good enough?21:51
macdLakesProse, are you want to enforce login attempts, etc as well21:51
guntbertkev_: I wouldn't know, I just take the offered updates :)21:51
LakesProsemacd: I don't know, is it ? isn't in more breakable than having a user/password challenge from server (with something like OSSEC to take care of brute forcing) ?21:52
Soletskinofstars1: what did you have to do to get hibernate to work on the 901?21:52
sweetgumhow do i find the name of a usb floppy drive21:52
macdLakesProse, the only other real idea I could give you is radius.21:52
macdLakesProse, key based login is most secure than password based, it could never be brute forced.21:52
schnitzcarlsberg21:53
LakesProsemacd: I know but I mean, isn't it easier to find the password from the key when it was generated that find a password that is on the server where you can't brute force it ?21:53
macdLakesProse, only if you have the capability of cracking the keys encryption method, which is HIGHLY UNLIKELY21:54
skinofstars1solent: for the lid close thing system>preferences>power management21:54
LakesProsemacd: the point is, if evil person has the key, should he be more afraid of the key having that 'embedded' password or a having the server challenge him with the password ?21:54
LakesProsemacd: oh!21:54
PDG1okay... so I'm still having a hard time with this external HDD21:54
LakesProsemacd: oh ok21:54
macdLakesProse, yeah a passworded key doesnt matter who has the key, the pass is still safe.21:55
smschnitz, macd: looks like I got lucky, two hardy pg debs downloaded from launchpad work fine on intrepid. Thanks for the help21:55
macdLakesProse, now if the attacker gets the public and private keypair your in trouble.21:55
Soletskinofstars1: i want it to hibernate instead of suspend, so that i can leave it for a few days at a time then boot back into what i had open21:55
Robyhello people!21:55
PDG1it says it's filesystem type is MSDOS21:55
macdsm, good luck, and next time you apt-get upgrade you may run into problems unless you "pin" those packages.21:55
* Izinucs just installed the latest nvidia driver 180.22 .. wow .. what an improvement over the 180.11 w/gforce 820021:56
Soletskinofstars1: but hibernate isnt on the poweroff list, and the internet says it screws things up unless you do it right, yet i see no where telling me how to do it right. have you gotten hibernate to work on the eee 901?21:56
Robyive got a problem with my instalation21:56
Robycould anybody help me?21:56
macdLakesProse, then again in order to get the private key, your server is already copromised.21:56
skinofstars1solent: there is an option in the power management section for lid close21:56

htrejhjoin21:58
LakesProsemacd: what do you mean ? if someone got the private key, it means the client is compromised AFAIK21:58
PDG1I'm trying to share an External HDD on an SMB share. my other files share no problem... but this one always asks for a username and password. why?21:59
macdLakesProse, sorry I was backwards, yes you are right.21:59
macdLakesProse, nothing else changes however, your still secure with passworded keys.21:59
LakesProsemacd: okay cool, I'll take a look at RADIUS . but maybe I'm just paranoid21:59
LakesProsemacd: actually I'm looking for that extra 'it-takes more than finding the private key' step22:00
LakesProsemacd:  but I guess it's already there.. I mean, how much time could it take to find the password on a private key ?22:01
macdThats what Im getting at, just having the key isnt enough it still has to be cracked22:01
macdLakesProse, realistically with 2048bit rsa, years?22:01
macdmaybe a decade ;)22:01
macdless time with ps3's ;)22:01
LakesProsemacd: okay, so cut that in half since it doesn't mean the last password it tries to guess it the good password22:02
LakesProsehehe, yeah ps3, cool and uncool22:02
Ubundudetrying to install drivers for my videocard, it says I can't install while "an X server" is running22:02
PDG1can I even share an MSDOS filesystem type and allow read write access to anyone on the SMB share?22:02
LakesProsemacd:  still, I dont know, I am under the impression that a server with decent anti-brute forece components is safer than private key with its password22:03
LakesProsehow crazy am I?22:04

FJ_SanchezHello22:11
ScottG489Ok so I'm having problems hibernating a lot in ubuntu. It frequently says I don't have enough swap space available, so I usually close down quite a few programs before I hibernate so that this doesn't happen, which sort of defeats the purpose of hibernating. A day or 2 ago I close down most programs and when I went to hibernate it gave me the error that I didn't have enough free swap space. I when I got back to the gui I ran "free -m" and got this result:22:11
ScottG489http://pastebin.com/d6ea91938    .    I don't understand how I could not hibernate when between my used memory and used swap space, its less than my total swap space. Any help?22:11
