| gaby | ahem, somebody know how to forcefully mount something? | 00:00 |
| oCean_ | gaby: mount has a force option, but the preferred/recommended way is to go through windows | 00:00 |
| _Whipper | gaby: so.. you are changing From ub ?-) | 00:00 |
| gaby | i cant access windows | 00:00 |
| ActionParsnip | caleb_: nice, sometimes they take a while to connect | 00:00 |
| thewrath | hey | 00:01 |
| gaby | ill probably have to go back to factory settings | 00:01 |
| caleb_ | ActionParsnip: It's kind of weird, seeing how I had this open all night. | 00:01 |
| gaby | but i need my files first | 00:01 |

| cypher1 | does anybody have the same problem of cpu usage being 95-100% with flash in firefox ? | 00:01 |
| ActionParsnip | gaby: sudo mount /dev/<partition anme> /mount/point -t ntfs-3g -o uid=1000,force | 00:01 |
| BuckyBunny | Evening everyone. | 00:01 |
| ActionParsnip | cypher1: firefox is a memory hog imho | 00:01 |
| oCean_ | gaby: Ok, you can try the forced mount, but when it still gives the "..in use" or "..not cleanly shutdown" message, you have to go through windows anyway, or install ntfs progs | 00:01 |
| gaby | thanks a lot, im going to try this, hold on | 00:02 |
| cypher1 | ActionParsnip, ok.. what is the better alternative then ? | 00:02 |

| jonathan__ | enigma: it doesn't, i don't believe. You can get a .deb package from adobe's website. | 00:39 |
| space_cadet | CyberSurfer, backup your usb stick, then install with unetbootin, you'll get the idea... | 00:39 |
| enigma | oCean_, alright. | 00:40 |
| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, ahhh, what I meant is instead of burn the ISO to a cd, burn it to a USB stick | 00:40 |
| enigma | nado, what software? | 00:40 |
| enigma | jonathan__, alright. | 00:40 |
| nado | enigma, it's a player they provide that you need to install before you can view their videos | 00:40 |
| jonathan__ | enigma: or install restricted-extras | 00:40 |
| oCean_ | enigma: it is in the repos, so no need to download deb from any site | 00:40 |
| Nephilus | ikonia: am i unbanned or is this a server error? | 00:40 |
| nado | enigma, and they only have it for windows and mac | 00:40 |
| jimi_hendrix | i dled a .deb and am about to install it, but it says i am advised to dl it from the channel, what does that mean | 00:40 |
| enigma | nado, what is the name of the player? | 00:41 |
| space_cadet | CyberSurfer well... this use is possible for that, but you will have a different menu at the start | 00:41 |
| nado | enigma, although flash is necessary, in the case of ABC it is not enough :( | 00:41 |
| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, I see, how different? | 00:41 |
| oCean_ | nado: yes it is, I can see abc shows | 00:41 |
| jtaji | jimi_hendrix: all you need to do is: sudo apt-get install pan | 00:41 |
| Nephilus | ABC? | 00:41 |
| Tophu | is there a tool I get get to scan an IP range like say 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.130 and return which IP addresses are in use? | 00:41 |
| enigma | jonathan__, I already have that. | 00:41 |
| phaer | jimi_hendrix: that means the same program is also in a repository, install it trough the jannel, updating will be easier | 00:41 |
| jtaji | jimi_hendrix: no need to download the .deb seperately | 00:41 |

| Nephilus | megabyte | 00:41 |
| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, ah | 00:41 |
| Nephilus | or maybe bit | 00:42 |
| jrib | landanimal: wikipedia knows | 00:42 |
| landanimal | not a man in black? | 00:42 |
| oCean_ | enigma: I can see the shows | 00:42 |
| Tophu | I have a remote client that I reboot on occasion and don't want to give it a static IP so I need to be able to scan for it so I can connect to it | 00:42 |
| Nephilus | landanimal: it is a megabit | 00:42 |
| CyberSurfer | Nephilus, I think it's bit | 00:42 |
| Nephilus | yeah | 00:42 |
| nado | oCean_, through their website ? how | 00:42 |
| Nephilus | byte would be Mb | 00:42 |
| Nephilus | i think | 00:42 |
| oCean_ | nado: flashplugin, that's it. | 00:42 |
| space_cadet | CyberSurfer, this may be a little bit better... http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-from-usb-stick.html | 00:42 |
| jrib | landanimal: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mebibit | 00:42 |
| enigma | nado, oCean_ jonathan__ it would appear that I have everything installed that I need. But whatever the deal is with that player ABC requires, I am just missing that. Do you know a way around this? | 00:42 |

| phaer | space_cadet: they are discussing how to watch abc series *on ubuntu* | 00:44 |
| nado | oCean_, no that is not enough. I have flash player installed. ABC says : Our new video player is only available for Windows (IE Firefox) and Mac(Firefox,Safari). Please download the appropriate browser. | 00:44 |
| phaer | space_cadet: so thats on topic, if you ask me ;) | 00:44 |
| nado | oCean_, what do you get when you go here : http://fep.abc.go.com/fep/player?src=abccomjs&show=186439 ? | 00:44 |
| space_cadet | aah... srry oCean_ enigma | 00:44 |
| shadowblade | can anyone help me set up port forwarding with iptables? | 00:45 |
| enigma | space_cadet, we are on topic. Don't worry. It's about trying to get ABC videos to work with firefox on Ubuntu. | 00:45 |
| space_cadet | oCean_, enigma have you tried hulu.com? | 00:45 |
| oCean_ | nado: I get "only viewers withing US can watch blah blah" | 00:45 |
| nado | oCean_, ah sad | 00:45 |
| Nephilus | I have a problem with my dock. i found the command for my pandora app. and added it and it doesn't have an icon so i gave it one. Now everytime the dock starts i have to reapply the image (i use AWN and i have tried png and ico) | 00:45 |
| Nephilus | any ideas? | 00:45 |
| enigma | space_cadet, my friend, whom I just recently converted to Ubuntu from WIndows watches Ugly Betty on ABC.com every day. This is the issue. To allow her to keep viewing in Ubuntu. | 00:46 |
| KeithBilly | could someone please offer some direction to replacing vlc 0.9 with vlc 0.8 on intrepid? This isn't b/c of some silly interface issue but rather a very bad memory leak in the streaming wizard that was introduced in 0.9, we need to be able to run our stream with 0.8.6 until vlc can fix this. | 00:46 |
| space_cadet | oCean_, try a proxy service | 00:46 |
| nado | oCean_, so where do you watch the shows if not on ABC ? | 00:46 |
| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, hehe sorry for being a noob but, "Copy the installer kernel and the initramdisk into this folder (Download source below.You need the files ?vmlinux? and ?initrd.gz?)." what does he mean with kernel? | 00:46 |
| ozzloy | i'm looking to move my company from visual source safe to bazaar. i tried contacting canonical about this and haven't heard back. any suggestions on support for this? | 00:46 |
| oCean_ | enigma: ok. Also make sure, the flashplugin-nonfree is set as default. | 00:47 |
| zagabar | How can I remove a program from wine? I tried the default uninstaller for the game, but it did nothing. Then I removed the files in program files manually, but it still thinks the program is installed. | 00:47 |
| Nephilus | go to wine config | 00:47 |
| stallon | hello | 00:47 |
| Nephilus | it is in the wine section in applications | 00:47 |
| enigma | oCean_, set as default? Is that a setting in Firefox? | 00:47 |
| Nephilus | and i htink there is also an add or remove application | 00:48 |
| oCean_ | enigma: Use the 'alternatives' method: "sudo update-alternatives --config firefox-flashplugin" | 00:48 |
| space_cadet | CyberSurfer, scroll down, you will see images of the files that need to be on the usb | 00:48 |
| CyberSurfer | ah okay | 00:48 |
| nado | oCean_, enigma : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=67916 that's it. No other solution | 00:48 |
| CyberSurfer | that's not what I mean space_cadet | 00:48 |
| space_cadet | the "installer kernel" is what he's referring to... | 00:49 |
| CyberSurfer | should I just cpy ?vmlinux? and ?initrd.gz?to install? | 00:49 |
| oCean_ | enigma: you will get a list of available plugins. And you can set the default there. Mine is set to the flashplugin-nonfree | 00:49 |
| CyberSurfer | or I need to do something else with it | 00:49 |
| enigma | oCean_, alright. It's default. But it was already default. Do you know why online videos are so freaking choppy in fullscreen mode? | 00:49 |

| stallon | PLease can somebody give me and idea how to set up my skype audio | 00:49 |
| zagabar | Nephilus: What to do in the config? | 00:49 |
| zagabar | I tried the wine unintall utility. It didn't work. | 00:49 |
| enigma | nado, that link you gave doesn't work. | 00:50 |
| a5x7 | stallon; try going to system > synaptic package manager and download/install from there | 00:50 |
| space_cadet | From the installation iso image you downloaded, copy the folder “isolinux” to the root directory of your USB device (right-click on the .iso file, choose “extract here”). Rename “isolinux” into “syslinux”. Go inside the directroy “syslinux”. There, rename the file “isolinux.cfg” into “syslinux.cfg”. | 00:50 |
| oCean_ | enigma: sorry, no. Mine seem pretty ok | 00:50 |
| space_cadet | CyberSurfer, ^^ | 00:50 |

| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, thanks | 00:50 |
| enigma | oCean_, I've had that problem on every single Ubuntu box I've run. Online video runs way better in reduced mode. Sometimes even the case with Totem. But in fullscreen, it becomes unbearably choppy. | 00:51 |
| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, but that's not what I meant, I'm talking about step 1 | 00:51 |

| CyberSurfer | space_cadet, with this I'll be able to boot like a live cd right? | 00:57 |
| hmsims | missing something...this is the code to get pentoo to accept some saves What you can do is creating a bigger root ext2 fs : | 00:57 |
| hmsims | Code: | 00:57 |
| hmsims | dd if =/dev/zero of=root2.img bs=1M count=50 | 00:57 |

| patrlck | If you are certain that fancontrol is not running, then you can delete | 01:02 |
| patrlck | /var/run/fancontrol.pid manually. | 01:02 |
| FloodBot1 | patrlck: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 01:02 |
| gouki | kanzie, give vsftpd a try. | 01:02 |
| patrlck | sorry | 01:02 |
| stallon | in the sound control i notice that at RECORDING, is disabled , i have enabled it several times but it will still go back to disable | 01:02 |
| jtaji | kanzie: vsftp is popular, and in the main repo | 01:02 |
| stallon | what do i do | 01:02 |
| dn4 | shadowblade: basically I have to go from /home/dn4/.wine/drive_c/ <-- right here is where when I try to alt-tab I cannot get Program Files | 01:02 |
| landanimal | !best | 01:03 |
| ubottu | Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 01:03 |
| dn4 | wait I mean just tab | 01:03 |
| kanzie | jtaji: you reckon that is easier to set up for me than going with proftpd | 01:03 |
| patrlck | is it safe if I kill fancontrol.pid while I generate the configuration file? | 01:03 |
| dn4 | so what I did was move all the files to .wine | 01:03 |
| dn4 | then moved them to Maps/Downloads | 01:03 |
| shadowblade | dn4: tabbing only works when theres one directory in a folder or when you've already typed part of something | 01:03 |
| jtaji | kanzie: not sure about that.. do you really need an ftp server? because ultimately ssh/scp/sftp is easier if only users with system accounts need to upload | 01:04 |
| space_cadet | dn4, hit tab twice? | 01:04 |
| jtaji | kanzie: s/upload/access/ | 01:04 |
| lbayas | ubuntu rocks! | 01:04 |
| landanimal | lol | 01:04 |
| space_cadet | yap | 01:05 |
| landanimal | bestbot is missing from #ubuntu-bots | 01:05 |

| lstarnes | kanzie: unzip | 01:31 |
| Sylphid | raylu, hmm that doesnt seem to work either as it is grabbing mrxvt (my terminal emulator) that i know is not a standard package | 01:31 |
| kanzie | no installed | 01:31 |
| kanzie | and couldn't find in repos either | 01:31 |
| lstarnes | kanzie: sudo apt-get install unzip | 01:31 |
| jonathan__ | kanzie: it is installed by default | 01:31 |
| kanzie | my bad | 01:31 |
| kanzie | jonathan__: not in HH 8.04LTS it isn't | 01:31 |
| jonathan__ | hmm | 01:32 |
| Titan8990 | so20f, after that try: sudo aptitude full-upgrade | 01:32 |
| so20f | Titan8990, still pukes. http://pastebin.com/m19109b86 | 01:32 |

| raylu | Sylphid: um, that's what it should do then | 01:33 |
| patrlck | if there is no fancontrol file does it mean my system uses the BIOS settings to control the fan? | 01:33 |
| Titan8990 | so20f, continue with trying the full-upgrade command but that is my last idea | 01:33 |
| raylu | Sylphid: the -v means 'not' | 01:33 |
| so20f | Titan8990, it's working, i'l llet you know | 01:33 |

| BadHorsi1 | Hi, friend changed "intrepid" to jaunty at work and then did apt-get update && apt-get upgrade, went through the screens configuring stuff but the system is pretty broken | 01:34 |

| marcus_ | Was just wondering how to change interface language on a per user basis? | 01:34 |
| marcus_ | nm I think I know how. Sorry. | 01:35 |
| BadHorsi1 | there's an unconfigured package, linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic (which couldn't be removed) and fails with cpio ./sbin/udevadm No such file or directory | 01:35 |
| Sylphid | raylu, maybe my explanation was unclear .... im looking to generate a list of packages that are installed in a clean ubuntu install | 01:35 |
| acton | perform a clean ubuntu install and then do dpkg -l | 01:36 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | ive been wondering for a while, how come SCREEN doesnt terminate when you close your terminal ? | 01:36 |
| acton | because it detaches | 01:36 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | any other program halts immedeately when I close putty | 01:36 |
| acton | that's the point of screen. you can recompile to make it close when you close the terminal | 01:36 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | nono, its cool the way it works. Its just something Ive been wondering | 01:37 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | what does it do to detach | 01:37 |
| acton | nods. it just detaches. you can use screen -r to reattach | 01:37 |
| acton | I'm not sure. same principals as nohup. | 01:37 |
| BadHorsi1 | !udevadm | 01:37 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about udevadm | 01:37 |
| raylu | Sylphid: oh, then take off the -v | 01:38 |
| raylu | Sylphid: except that's not quite what you want | 01:38 |
| raylu | Sylphid: that's a list of automatically installed packages. so when you installed something on top of the base system, any dependencies it pulled in are in that list | 01:39 |
| Sylphid | raylu, right because it doesnt include packages i may have removed | 01:39 |
| raylu | Sylphid: oh... | 01:39 |
| raylu | Sylphid: i think ubuntu-desktop depends on | 01:39 |
| raylu | Sylphid: everything in the base system. maybe. | 01:39 |
| MK-ubuntu | hi, i was wondering | 01:40 |
| Orbixx | Is there any support for Jmicron raid drivers? | 01:40 |
| MK-ubuntu | how do i select boot settings? | 01:40 |
| Tokenekie | hi, how can I search for core utility commands using wildcards? | 01:40 |
| jonathan__ | MK-ubuntu: you mean in grub? | 01:40 |
| Sylphid | raylu, so do i need to reinstall ubuntu-desktop to get the list or is there a way to determine the entire dependancy tree without installing? | 01:40 |
| MK-ubuntu | yes | 01:41 |
| micca | LOL earlier abt the problems with all the audio programs | 01:41 |
| MK-ubuntu | i heard i could change that from gdm. | 01:41 |
| Tokenekie | How do I search for commands using wildcards? | 01:41 |
| MK-ubuntu | ? | 01:41 |
| Orbixx | Sylphid: If you just do a "apt-get install -s ubuntu-desktop" | 01:41 |
| kanzie | how can I apt-get install the GD2-plug for my php | 01:42 |
| jonathan__ | MK-ubuntu: I don't know about from gdm. however you can edit /boot/grub/menu.list to change them, but be careful. | 01:42 |
| Orbixx | kanzie: apt-get install php-gd | 01:42 |
| MK-ubuntu | any links i could look into? | 01:42 |
| gaby | hello, i just finished mounting an external hard drive that ¨couldnt be mounted¨ (because of windows, but it really wasnt on windows) and now i got this message: The folder contents could not be displayed. You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "sdb1". | 01:42 |
| kanzie | Orbixx: thanks | 01:42 |
| jonathan__ | MK-ubuntu: you can also access them on boot, normally with escape. | 01:42 |
| Qblabla | Why are all desktop launchers in the guest session "not trustworthy"? (Jaunty, edited /skel/ to put starters on the guest session desktop) | 01:43 |

| ChotaZ|Idle | How can I use MySQL tools with Ubuntu 8.10? | 01:43 |
| Tokenekie | gaby: try putting sudo before what you are trying to do. You need to be root. | 01:43 |
| kanzie | Orbixx: is there anyway to tab to see what is available in the repos? | 01:43 |
| Tokenekie | How do I search for commands using wildcards? | 01:44 |
| MK-ubuntu | jonathan__, i know but right now, i installed 8.10 from vbox in xp but when i ran | 01:44 |

| MK-ubuntu | apt-get update/upgrade | 01:44 |
| Tokenekie | gaby: or you can use chmod somehow to change the permissions on what you are trying to view | 01:44 |
| MK-ubuntu | it also updated the kernel to 2.6.27-11 | 01:44 |
| MK-ubuntu | thats y | 01:44 |
| Sylphid | Orbixx, raylu, thanks that gets me what i need | 01:45 |

| gaby | chmod? | 01:45 |
| Qblabla | where are the positions for the desktop icons stored (appearantly not in /home/)? | 01:45 |
| kanzie | I created a user and chown -R www to that | 01:45 |

| Tokenekie | How do I search for commands using wildcards? | 01:46 |
| jasballz | qblabla: i think /home/your_user_name | 01:46 |
| Sylphid | Orbixx, raylu, hmm thats odd and doesnt sound right .... apt is showing up in the list of post install apps | 01:46 |
| fosco_ | Tokenekie: many ways, ls /bin/*command* or ls /usr/bin/*command* for example | 01:46 |
| lstarnes | Tokenekie: or type part of the command then press tab | 01:46 |
| jonathan__ | MK-ubuntu: running sudo update-grub will regenerate the config file based on what ever kernels etc you have. | 01:47 |
| Tokenekie | fosco_: Are those the only two places to find core commands? | 01:47 |
| Orbixx | What did you expect? | 01:47 |
| MK-ubuntu | thanks | 01:47 |
| Tokenekie | lstarnes: Omg Im so stupid. Thanks | 01:47 |
| jasballz | tokenekie: i know the "locate" command automatically ascribes wildcards to w/e word you have after it | 01:47 |
| fosco_ | Tokenekie: yes for most of them | 01:47 |
| fosco_ | Tokenekie: use find path -name *command* to seacrh wherever you want | 01:47 |
| kanzie | how can I set up my webserver to use https? | 01:47 |
| fosco_ | whereis command | 01:48 |
| fosco_ | locate command | 01:48 |
| lakeoftea | hi | 01:48 |
| Qblabla | jasballz you be right, but than a guestsession seems to handle the desktop specially (re-/notarranged icons and all starters are "not trustworthy") | 01:48 |
| Tokenekie | fosco_: Yeah, I tried it with whereis but it doesnt let you use wildcards | 01:48 |
| lakeoftea | i have a question. i have 150gb drive but for some reason it seems ubuntu is taking up 70gigs which i know isnt true | 01:48 |
| alexmhso | i need help mounting/managing my media library. I am converting from windows so i have an itunes library consolidated onto an external harddrive | 01:48 |
| Qblabla | jasballz "you might be right" was what I wanted to say | 01:49 |
| Tokenekie | fosco_: But anyway, problem solved. just use tab complete. Maybe Ill try locate too, dunno if I have yet | 01:49 |
| lakeoftea | i can't find any big files on my drive using gnome-search-tool | 01:49 |
| lakeoftea | how can i figure out where all of this disk space has gone? | 01:49 |
| jasballz | lakeoftea: try running applications/disk usage analyser | 01:49 |
| jasballz | lakeoftea: or "sudo apt-get gparted" / "gparted" | 01:49 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea: use the diskspace explorer | 01:49 |
| fosco_ | lakeoftea: type df -h in a terminal | 01:50 |
| lakeoftea | diskspace explorer? | 01:50 |
| lakeoftea | k | 01:50 |
| jasballz | alexmhso: since its itunes its already nicely organized so it should be just a matter of connecting it to your pc | 01:50 |
| kanzie | what steps do I need to take to have my server allow https? | 01:50 |
| Qblabla | do whaat jasballz said lakeoftea | 01:50 |
| Qblabla | I mixed up the names | 01:50 |
| lakeoftea | i have gparted, it just tells me what % is used | 01:51 |
| lakeoftea | i wanna know where it's at | 01:51 |
| alexmhso | jasballz: well for one, i havent mounted the harddrive, so i just have it sitting on my desktop in gnome. banshee isnt letting me drag/drop into it's library, and they're consolidation file organization is different to some extent. | 01:51 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea use the /disk usage analyser | 01:51 |
| lakeoftea | when i search w gnome-search-tool for files over 100mg it dont pull nothing up! | 01:51 |
| jasballz | alexmhso: you may have a problem of permissions when you try to access them if its hfs / mac | 01:51 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea use the disk usage analyser... | 01:51 |
| lakeoftea | how do i do that? | 01:52 |
| alexmhso | jasballs: ntfs doesnt have permissions right? | 01:52 |
| Qblabla | applications - accesories (or something simmilar) - disk usage analyser | 01:52 |
| lakeoftea | there it is | 01:52 |
| alexmhso | jasballz: ntfs doesnt have permissions right? | 01:53 |
| lakeoftea | word up this program looks pretty cool lol ;) | 01:53 |
| Jeruvy | alexmhso: sure it does. | 01:53 |
| alexmhso | okay well is it worth mounting a dedicated folder within my external drive to /home/username/music? | 01:53 |
| alexmhso | can i even mount a folder to another folder? | 01:53 |
| bonez46 | I have 8.10 installed.. I need to run xp pro.. er.. install it so my boys can play a few games.. should I a) install it natively with dual boot and if so, how, when linux is the first OS on the drive, or b) install virtual box and then load XP into it? | 01:54 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea found the evil? | 01:54 |
| dan457 | for games, boot. VB is not so hot for gaming | 01:54 |
| jonathan__ | lakeoftea: how bout something like "ls -R /your/dir | du | sort -nr | less" | 01:55 |
| lakeoftea | no it didn't i'm in even more confused | 01:55 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: ask ubottu about !dualboot and !wubi, take your pick :) | 01:55 |
| lakeoftea | the program worked very nice | 01:55 |
| alexmhso | jeruvy: well should i mount the drive with permissions or can i use it sort of like an external drive in windows? | 01:55 |
| bonez46 | !wubi | 01:55 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 01:55 |
| lakeoftea | but it doesn't add up to approx 70ish missing gigs | 01:55 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea no big chunk anywhere? | 01:55 |
| hhp2k | Hey everyone! | 01:56 |
| Jeruvy | alexmhso: I would mount it as a cifs or nfs drive. You can also use ntfs3g | 01:56 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea what does the small text under the toolbar say how much space is used? | 01:56 |
| dan457 | Using ext3? then a it will format with some missing..... | 01:56 |
| lakeoftea | it says my / is 7.4 gig | 01:56 |
| bonez46 | Jeruvy: but.. see.. I only have UBUNTU on my hard drive.. not I have windows and want to install unbuntu.. | 01:56 |
| alexmhso | yeah i was told to use fstab | 01:56 |
| alexmhso | jeruvy: yeah i was told to use fstab by a friend. | 01:56 |
| lakeoftea | and my home is 4 gig | 01:56 |
| dan457 | fstab will mount things for you automaticaly at boot. | 01:56 |
| Jeruvy | alexmhso: thats a good way to do it automagically, but your choices remain | 01:57 |
| lakeoftea | maybe i'll just wait til 9.04 stable comes out and reformat lol | 01:57 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea maybe you did what I did: deleting files as root and not emptying the trash? | 01:57 |
| alexmhso | i dont want to do it auto so i was going to use noauto, but so that it would end up at the same folder all the time. | 01:57 |
| hhp2k | I have a quick question: Since recently reinstalling Ubuntu 8.04 after some time not using it, I've spent the last couple of days customizing it to my liking. If I ever needed to reinstall Ubuntu, would there be a way to save all of the packages, commands, and settings into an executable/archive that would make my system fully customized right out the door? | 01:57 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: well then don't even bother..I'm kinda confused what you need help with? | 01:57 |
| lakeoftea | how do i empty trash as root | 01:58 |
| jonathan__ | hhp2k: you could keep a copy of all the config files in your home directory as a start | 01:58 |
| alexmhso | jeruvy: can i just add noauto to the command and mount it to the same folder everytime? | 01:58 |
| hhp2k | jonathan__: I've got that down, yes. | 01:58 |
| lakeoftea | sudo take out the trash plz | 01:58 |
| bonez46 | Jeruvy: I have only ubuntu installed.. my boys want to play SOME windows based pc games.. so I want to figure out whether to natively install xp pro. and if so HOW.. or whether to set up virtual box and install xp in there? | 01:58 |
| Jeruvy | hhp2k: your /home folder should have most of the important stuff, but you should verify with any packages you were using for any specific locations of any possibly important files. | 01:59 |
| lakeoftea | i know how to empty it from .local in my home dir | 01:59 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea if you dont know how to empty the trash as sudo you probably did not fill it with sudo or gk sudo either | 01:59 |
| jonathan__ | hhp2k: have a list of the packages you just installed, and write a script that installs them and restores your config files | 01:59 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: ah, sorry I missed that. Depending on 'what' games, wine may be a better idea than virtualboxing or dualbooting | 01:59 |
| bonez46 | oh, these are games that I have already looked up in wine... | 02:00 |
| bonez46 | they require win xp.. | 02:00 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: then you don't have a question. You have a direction :) | 02:00 |
| Tophu | is there any way to get an ideazon MERC ZBoard and a 7 button logitech mouse working like they do in windows? | 02:00 |
| hhp2k | jonathan__: Good enough. :) Thanks! | 02:00 |
| lakeoftea | i's like disk anayiser helped me find approx 13 gigs but wheres the like other 55 gigs i cant find lol | 02:00 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: virtual boxing is not ready for gametime in most cases | 02:00 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea: you could type "gksudo nautilus" in the terminal and search for the trash bin and empty it (but dont delete anything, in this window you can do much harm) | 02:01 |
| bonez46 | ok, then.. how would I proceed installiing xp pro.. to the hard drive then? it wants to see the MBR as all its own.. how can I install it? | 02:01 |
| lakeoftea | true what would it be called? trash? | 02:01 |
| Qblabla | yes | 02:01 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: either: dualboot. That means installing xp first, then ubuntu, or use wubi, which is install xp, then install wubi. | 02:02 |
| lakeoftea | couldnt i do a gnome-search-tool for it too? | 02:02 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea: maybe the 55GB are many smaller files, what would you search for? | 02:03 |
| lakeoftea | dunno | 02:03 |
| lakeoftea | is there some sort of strange temp directory like in windows? | 02:03 |
| Jeruvy | Tophu: mine is seen as a keyboard, and actually works. | 02:03 |
| jonathan__ | lakeoftea: trash is sometimes stored in .Trash. You can use Ctrl-H in nautilus to see files starting with . | 02:03 |
| Jeruvy | Tophu: but I've only alpha tested it with jaunty. So I don't know if it's properly supported at this time. | 02:04 |
| bauruine | i am trying to run a miredo server but i always get "Error (87.98.244.xx): Cannot assign requested address." :-/ | 02:04 |
| bonez46 | I wont' rip ubuntu out and reinstall just to put xp pro on here.. I guess I won't install it then.. | 02:04 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea: guess I cant help you any further and I need to sleep | 02:04 |
| Jeruvy | bonez46: backup /home, trash the rest and go. Unless your running server apps you should be ok | 02:05 |
| thebest | hi | 02:05 |
| Qblabla | lakeoftea: good night and luck | 02:05 |
| lakeoftea | lol k thx | 02:05 |
| thebest | there are some one? | 02:05 |
| gaby | how can i change the ¨permission¨ on a hard disk? i get this http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/5710/screenshottrashfilebrow.png | 02:05 |
| Qblabla | thebest no, 1333 = 0 | 02:05 |
| Tophu | @Jeruvy: my keyboard works fine but the special gaming area on the left with the QWEASD area doesn't want to work | 02:05 |

| Tophu | @cory8092 if you go to www.nvidia.com you can download and compile the latest drivers | 02:14 |
| jonathan__ | patrlck: I don't know, but there some interesting stuff about it in /proc/acpi | 02:14 |

| kanzie | where do I change the home-path for a user | 02:16 |
| oood | i've heard about this zeitgeist tool. does anyone know about similar thing? is there something out there with same functionality? | 02:16 |
| Tophu | if you need help message me I just went through all that today ;-) | 02:17 |
| janedoe_ | will ubuntu's installer create and size a new partition to allow an existing OS (e.g. Vista) to be left in place and functional? | 02:17 |
| Brandon_ | man i've been getting so frustrated with this os | 02:17 |
| Brandon_ | every time i try to add somthing i get a new error | 02:17 |
| TunnlRat | Janedoe_: Yes it will you can set it to dual boot when you first install | 02:17 |
| chris__ | how can I make firefox spoof ie7 for login purposes | 02:18 |
| TunnlRat | it gives you the option to change the sizes of the partition before it does anythin | 02:18 |
| jonathan__ | Brandon_: why? | 02:18 |
| janedoe_ | so no need to remove existing OS then, right? (to restate pretty much the same darn thing;) ) | 02:18 |
| TunnlRat | Jane: no you don't have to, it can be left alone so that if you want to be able to chose to boot in windows you still can | 02:18 |
| oood | i've heard about this ZEITGEIST tool. does anyone know about similar thing? is there something out there with same functionality? | 02:18 |
| TunnlRat | It will setup a bootloader for you so that you can select either Vista or Ubuntu to start up | 02:19 |
| janedoe_ | great, thanks TunnlRat! | 02:19 |

| Brandon_ | so is every one having as much fun as i am with all this??? (sarcasm) | 02:28 |
| Jeruvy | micca: mysql root doesn't have a password by default install, So if you set one, explicitly tell it 'mysql -u root -p' | 02:28 |
| eseven73 | micca, you should try channels with 30 people like #puppy, you'll never get help, #Ubuntu is a paradise for help compared to that, why i switched back to Ubuntu ;) | 02:28 |
| pymike | woah .macromedia/ has a ton of crap | 02:29 |
| micca | hehe eseven73 .. ye thx.. and Jeruvy : hence I am confused why I can't start it with mysql -u root (I havent set any password.. i can run it wihtout specifying root but if i try to run as root it gives me access denied) | 02:29 |
| Jeruvy | micca: you have to specify -p | 02:29 |
| TunnlRat | Can ubuntu scan for wifi networks like windows and if so how? i can't seem to see my wifi router had to hardwire in | 02:29 |

| kanzie | jonathan__: I want /var/www to be the home-dir of one user | 02:30 |
| micca | eseven73, does that mean I must forget about all the root stuff in ubuntu? and just set a pssword for me as the admin user? (jeruvy.. if i specify -p wihtout having set a password I wont be able to log in) | 02:30 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ nm-applet on the panel should list all available networks when you click it (in a drop-down) | 02:30 |
| Gnomie | oh cause im in the wrong channel sorry | 02:30 |
| micca | TunnlRat, yes it does.. but the wireless driver must be enabled and working | 02:30 |
| pymike | no projects though | 02:30 |

| Jeruvy | micca: correct, but it's one or the other, it cannot be both :) | 02:30 |
| jonathan__ | kanzie: try "man adduser" | 02:30 |
| TunnlRat | hrmmm i don't think my wifi card is working then | 02:30 |
| kanzie | jonathan__: I changed /etc/passwd to link to /var/www instead of home/username, howdever it does not trigger... still end up in the /home/username-foder when I log in over sftp. | 02:30 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ which wifi card do you have? (Check with 'lspci' in terminal, if required) | 02:30 |
| kanzie | Thinking now of removing the folder and symlink /var/www to /home/username | 02:30 |

| micca | jeruvy: lets say my username is plonker : when i run this: mysql (it starts), if i run : mysql -u plonker... it works.. but absoilutely NOT if i specify root | 02:33 |

| MenZa | Mobius_thought→ sudo apt-get install build-essentials | 02:33 |
| micca | can i just disregard root account or will this be a security hole (i.e. root with no password set ) | 02:34 |
| micca | im not used to not being able to go root with sudo | 02:34 |

| TunnlRat | Unbuntu 8.10 | 02:34 |
| micca | Jeruvy | 02:35 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ perfect. Just to describe the process - you need to install the ath5k module (which suits your card), blacklist the old ath_pci module and set the new one up to load automatically on boot. I'll guide you through it | 02:35 |
| micca | you are the best | 02:35 |
| micca | yup.. it needed the host appendix to accept it... cheers mate!!! | 02:35 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ start by running sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid-generic and wait for that to install | 02:35 |

| kaveh | someone at my place decided to update my xubuntu from 8.04 to 8.10 - firefox started not working properly, the back and forward would be greyed out, it wouldnt put proper home page etc.. - so i googled, several solutions said to remove "xyz.default" and profiles.ini in the .mozilla/firefox folder and then remove / install firefox again. i did that and now firefox wants to make a profile, i dont know how to edit the permissions | 02:36 |
| kaveh | so that it can make the profile folder in the .mozilla/firefox folder and when i make the profile elsewhere it says the profile is in use. then i made the profile on a folder on desktop, firefox loads but it wont work at all and a message pops up telling me "Could not initialize the applications security component" | 02:36 |
| Jeruvy | micca: see bind-address for details on that | 02:36 |

| TunnlRat | menza: ahhhh understoo | 02:39 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ save the file with ctrl + w | 02:40 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ when you're done with that, edit /etc/modules in the same manner, and just add ath5k to the bottom of that list. then reboot and remove your ethernet cable. feel free to pop in and let me know if that worked after :) | 02:40 |
| micca | Jeruvy.. but grant optipon is for new users no? i mean given I can log in as root@localhost , surely I must create a password for that account by set password no? | 02:40 |
| jonathan__ | type_generic: I was thinking that perhaps dns isn't working, so you could try 209.85.171.100 which is google and see what happens | 02:41 |
| micca | although even back years ago.. i think PASSWORD was somewhat obsolete or osmething.. and rather use a simila rocmmand hmm | 02:41 |
| MenZa | setting the root user password should be done with the following, micca: SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('yourpassword'); | 02:41 |
| type_generic | jonathan_: yeah, just thought to do that, and it works. I noticed the problem when it couldn't resolve stuff in synaptic | 02:41 |
| TunnlRat | menza: aight one problem lol it won't let me save it says permission denied | 02:41 |
| kaveh | anyone having absurd problems with firefox since updating to 8.10? | 02:42 |

| MenZa | TunnlRat→ so sudo nano <files> | 02:42 |
| TunnlRat | menza: ahhhh okay | 02:42 |

| jonathan__ | type_generic: a dns server can be specified in /etc/network/interfaces. but I'm not sure | 02:43 |
| SvenZ | anyone with patience willing to Private chat with me to get me up and running? | 02:43 |
| dotkite | *hey anyone know how i can send a message to another person on my WAN network via terminal?* | 02:43 |
| jonathan__ | type_generic: why it would stop working in your case. | 02:44 |
| micca | ok MenZa but i just installed LAMP through the apt-get something something tesl? | 02:44 |
| SvenZ | need help mounting partitions with NTFS and getting audio to work | 02:44 |
| TunnlRat | Menza: will that stop my wired network from working? | 02:44 |
| micca | I could only enter with root user to mysql by specifying root@localhost | 02:44 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ no, not at all - they're seperate adaptors. | 02:44 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ I have that wireless card, and I'm on a wired network right now :) | 02:44 |
| Jeruvy | micca: try 'root'@'localhost' | 02:44 |
| wonderpoop | does anybody know how i can change login options from terminal? | 02:44 |
| jonathan__ | type_generic: I had a similar problem in FreeBSD but it just solved itself after a reboot and I never bothered with it. | 02:44 |
| dotkite | *hey anyone know how i can send a message to another person on my WAN network via terminal?* | 02:45 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ basically, ath_pci is the name of an old module for that card. It just doesn't work in Intrepid. | 02:45 |
| type_generic | jonathan_: so I should append my interfaces file to include the DNS servers as supplied by my ISP? Would I just put "DNS 123.456.789.10"? | 02:45 |
| MenZa | !patience > dotkite | 02:45 |
| ubottu | dotkite, please see my private message | 02:45 |
| TunnlRat | Menza: Good cause i got so tired of my stupid windows machines not working i just spent the last two days converting them all to Ubuntu and getting world of warcraft up and going | 02:45 |
| micca | !root | 02:45 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 02:45 |

| andy_ | im about to do a dual boot on my pc.with xp and ubuntu..i already did it before on my old pc..i was just inquiring on issues with regards with 2 sata hdd | 02:45 |

| micca | lol at ice-nine 's solution: why so bad to set a root password ;p | 02:45 |
| MenZa | andy_→ there shouldn't be an issue. I have two. | 02:45 |
| wonderpoop | nobody knows do they? | 02:45 |
| TunnlRat | Alright hopefully my computer doesn't go up in smoke if not i'll be back in a couple mins lol | 02:46 |

| andy_ | ok..thanks..and with dual monitors? | 02:46 |
| MenZa | andy_→ should work excellently - which graphics card do you have? | 02:46 |
| type_generic | jonathan_: alright, found some info on the internet, thanks for the help! | 02:46 |

| micca | hmmm, where are alternative lampo installations of mysql MenZa , because now when I follow that guide.. I cant start mysqld as its not in user/sbin or so | 02:47 |

| andy_ | ok thanks.. | 02:48 |
| YellowRed | Would someone be able to assist me with a printer issue? | 02:48 |
| MenZa | micca→ it should be in /etc/init.d/mysql | 02:48 |
| micca | oki | 02:48 |
| MenZa | YellowRed→ Might want to ask the question stating which printer, which issue, and what you've done to resolve it first | 02:48 |
| MenZa | YellowRed→ that way, people can buy in if they know anything about it | 02:48 |
| micca | still command not found :/ | 02:49 |
| andy_ | seaphor channel pls? | 02:49 |
| kaveh | anyone able to help me with firefox? it wouldnt save any user data, a few googled solutions said to delete a folder "leters/numbers.default" and "profile.ini" then completely remove and install firefox. i just updated ubuntu from 8.04 to 8.10 and my graphics driver was removed - reinstalling it will remove xserver-desktop and firefox is now not working because it wants to create a user profile, once created (wont create in its | 02:49 |

| micca | MenZa, negative: commmand not found | 02:49 |
| TunnlRat | lol one question now though | 02:49 |
| MenZa | micca→ ...where did you install mysql from? | 02:49 |
| micca | one sec | 02:50 |
| MenZa | micca→ assuming you installed it from the repositories, that is where the binary should be. | 02:50 |
| TunnlRat | how do i tell the wireless card what network to connect to i have the wpa key for my router | 02:50 |
| micca | MenZa, I used this command: sudo tasksel install lamp-server | 02:50 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ you click it and press the wireless network you wish to connect | 02:50 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ then you insert the key when asked for it | 02:50 |
| MenZa | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP?action=fullsearch&context=180&value=linkto%3A%22ApacheMySQLPHP%22 <- micca, I don't know much about tasksel, but I've used this guide numerous times to get MySQL, Apache and PHP running. | 02:51 |
| TunnlRat | hrmm there are no wireless networks showing and i know there are at least 4 within range including mine | 02:51 |
| micca | okidokie.. cheers | 02:51 |
| Jeruvy | MenZa: mysqld | 02:51 |
| MenZa | Jeruvy→ positive? | 02:51 |
| MenZa | I'm pretty sure it's not mysqld | 02:51 |
| SvenZ | I have a Soundblaster Audigy 2 soundcard, how do I configure it to work on ubuntu? | 02:51 |
| MenZa | !soundblaster | SvenZ | 02:51 |

| SvenZ | thanks MenZa | 02:52 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ and... you're connected how, currently? | 02:52 |
| SvenZ | :thumbsup: | 02:52 |
| TunnlRat | still wired | 02:52 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ can you connect to your wireless networks if you connect to one specifically? | 02:52 |
| micca | MenZa, this is the one I used: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP the one you linked didnt give a specific goot hit | 02:52 |
| MenZa | micca→ well, that's what I mean | 02:52 |
| TunnlRat | i could with windows though maybe not this way | 02:52 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ you should have a list of networks when you click it. | 02:53 |
| micca | yup but according to that one MenZa I use the ocmmmand I gave you.. then it says to do mysql -u root (which I couldnt until I added @localhost) then I can get in.. then when I try to set the password witht hat command SET PASSWORD etc.. it just wont work :/ | 02:53 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ could you pastebin the following: output of `dmesg`, as well as /etc/modules and /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 02:53 |
| MenZa | sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ath_pci.conf | 02:53 |
| MenZa | err. | 02:53 |
| TunnlRat | on the front of my laptop there is a slide button that you can us in windows enable/disable the wifi | 02:54 |
| micca | and when I went to that reset page.. I could stop the daemon.. but for some reason | 02:54 |
| MenZa | ignore that | 02:54 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ and it's enabled? | 02:54 |
| micca | I do whereis mysqld it is indeed in /usr/sbin, yet it doesn't want to start from there | 02:54 |
| ghang | what should i do when this hapen ? ----> mount: /media/cdrom0 is not a block device | 02:54 |
| lakeoftea | much love to ubuntu lol | 02:54 |
| micca | i guess maybe my shell has wrong start | 02:54 |
| micca | blah | 02:54 |
| micca | ok brb | 02:54 |
| MenZa | the only real advice I can give you is to remove the task, micca | 02:55 |
| MenZa | and install each package manually | 02:55 |
| TunnlRat | you want me to paste that in a private window right | 02:55 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ no, use a pastebin | 02:55 |
| lstarnes | ghang: flip /dev/devicename and /media/devicename in the command | 02:55 |

| micca | i did | 02:59 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ back. | 03:00 |
| micca | OK progress | 03:01 |
| TunnlRat | menza: alright when i did dmesg it comes up with so much stuff i couldn't even see it all | 03:01 |
| micca | I did instead | 03:01 |
| micca | sudo /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root@localhost password "password" then I got a reply: /usr/bin/mysqladmin: Can't turn off logging; error: 'Access denied; you need the SUPER privilege for this operation' ideas Jeruvy ? | 03:01 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ a word of advice; you can output the stuff from dmesg to a file with `dmesg > filename.txt` - then you can open it in gedit (gedit filename.txt) | 03:01 |

| FrozenFire | Is it possible to, using SSH, launch a session on a remote system, and then use Gnome? X11 forwarding seems to work quite well on a single application basis, but I want to launch my entire workspace. | 03:05 |
| TunnlRat | hehe true | 03:05 |
| MenZa | FrozenFire→ No. You need VNC for that. | 03:05 |

| micca | SeaPhor, no i know.. I just put words into the bot's mouth | 03:06 |
| Doonz | someone point me to a tutorial? | 03:06 |
| SeaPhor | FrozenFire, Tightvnc works well | 03:06 |
| FrozenFire | MenZa: Are you sure? If I cannot do it via Gnome, I'll just launch single applications with X11 | 03:06 |
| micca | ok Jeruvy : what is the name of the grant table in which root resides? I ll try to update the fricking entries manually | 03:06 |
| FrozenFire | I don't want to use VNC, in this case. | 03:06 |
| MenZa | FrozenFire→ For what reason? | 03:06 |
| CHC | i'm having a strange problem in ubuntu 8.10 where some programs because full screen and i cannot exit it without alt-tabbing because there is no exit, etc, this happed to me on firefox(its not using its full screen option) and KRDC, the only way i got firefox out of it was going to view > fullscreen then unsetting it, because F11 seemed not to do anything, as for KRDC i don't know what i can do about it | 03:07 |
| MenZa | FrozenFire→ Security? | 03:07 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ one second. | 03:07 |
| FrozenFire | MenZa: There are a few, but I'd rather not get into them. | 03:07 |
| TunnlRat | kk | 03:07 |
| MenZa | FrozenFire→ Right. If it's security you're worried about, you can tunnel VNC through ssh. | 03:07 |
| Jeruvy | micca: I'm out of ideas. Maybe the experts in #mysql can be more help. | 03:07 |
| FrozenFire | MenZa: It's not a security issue. The systems will be on a closed network, via a switch | 03:07 |
| * micca hits his head... thanks for all the help Jeruvy and MenZa | 03:07 | |
| micca | eh.. i cant join the channel??? | 03:08 |
| opera | 退格建 | 03:08 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ It appears to time out when attempting to connect to your hardware. Try running sudo iwconfig and pastebin the output (you can, like I mentioned before, run sudo apt-get install pastebinit, then simply run: sudo iwconfig | pastebinit) | 03:08 |
| Jeruvy | micca: you need to be identified to join certain channels on freenode | 03:08 |
| FrozenFire | Next question. Is there a simple interface for setting up and managing a router from within Ubuntu. That is, Ubuntu running a DHCP server, firewall, etc. | 03:08 |
| micca | got ya | 03:08 |
| MenZa | there's ipcop, FrozenFire, but I'm not sure how it works. | 03:10 |
| SeaPhor | TunnlRat, just type the fiest 3-4 letters of the nick you're talking to and hit the Tab key, example: type tunn and hit the Tab key | 03:10 |
| MenZa | FrozenFire→ oops, apparently, it's a distro. My bad. | 03:10 |
| bobbob1016 | Anyone know if powertop saying Ihave 150+/- interrupts per second is a bad thing? And how I can fix it? It gives me U - USB Suspend, but when I hit U it stays there. | 03:10 |
| SvenZ | MenZa, I entered some lines in gedit for the audio device, and saved and exited, but got this response | 03:10 |
| eseven73 | FrozenFire, i think theres specific distros just for firewalls check distrowatch.com | 03:10 |

| FrozenFire | Also, is there a way to configure my wireless connection as the preferred connection? Whenever I have my wireless network active, and my wired network active, network manager insists on using the wired connection. | 03:10 |
| MenZa | SvenZ→ I don't know anything about SoundBlaster cards, personally - sorry :( | 03:11 |
| MenZa | SvenZ→ try using a different editor - like nano. | 03:11 |
| MenZa | (and make sure you run it as sudo) | 03:11 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, http://paste.ubuntu.com/143225/ | 03:11 |
| SeaPhor | FrozenFire, thats because the wired is supposedly faster | 03:11 |
| SvenZ | i have no idea what im doing | 03:11 |
| FrozenFire | SeaPhor: In this case, wired is 256Kb/s, whereas wifi is 2MB/s | 03:12 |

| TunnlRat | MenZa, lawl no thats my neighbours mine is "Masterrat" | 03:12 |
| Doonz | Ok not sure exactly what i need here. What is the best way to share folders from my Ubuntu-Server to my Windows machines and my Ubuntu laptops? | 03:12 |
| micca | hmm by the way.. when one is browsing through files with the GUI and wants to open them as root (sudo) how can I add that as an option within the gui? | 03:12 |

| Ububegin | I intend to upgrade from fiesty to gutsy.... do I need to backup my data... and are there any potential problems to take note of | 03:12 |
| micca | Doonz, Samba perhaps? | 03:12 |
| micca | !samba | 03:12 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 03:12 |
| mrwes | micca, run gksu nautilus | 03:12 |
| Doonz | is that the best one? | 03:13 |
| MenZa | micca→ you could write a script, or you could run nautilus with sudo - gksu nautilus | 03:13 |
| MenZa | absolutely, Doonz | 03:13 |
| Doonz | micca: is that the best option for me? | 03:13 |

| SeaPhor | FrozenFire, do they both connect to the same router?, same default gateway/dhcp-server? | 03:13 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, when i left click the wireless networks thing is greyed out | 03:13 |
| Doonz | so now that i have samba installed and running on my fileserver. and i can access my share no problem on my vista/xp computers. How can i get it mapped on my ubuntu laptop | 03:13 |
| Jeruvy | Ububegin: upgrades are never recommended, but backup your /home directory to ensure nothing important dies. If your running server you may need to be aware of other dirs in /var or /usr for instance. | 03:13 |
| micca | cheers mrwes and MenZa : and how do i Add that tha option as I only have the folders through the places in the taskbar (do i change it in my profile file or osmething?) | 03:14 |

When i print anything with colour, the colours are not aligned whatsoever. i plugged the printer into a xp machine, and it prints fine. I thought doing an alignment while plugged in to the windows machine would fix it, but after reconnecting the problems are the same. Help? | 03:29 |

| MenZa | progenitus→ there's about 20 of them. Depends what kind of development you're interested in contributing to :) | 03:34 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, maybe my router needs to be changed | 03:34 |
| Doonz | mrwes: still doesnt like it | 03:34 |
| eseven73 | progenitus, i believe its #Ubuntu-devel or -dev | 03:34 |

| dcamp25 | anyone see java say Applet JVMDetect notinited | 03:34 |
| Doonz | yep | 03:34 |

| TunnlRat | MenZa, nope i don't see any there at all its empty | 03:34 |
| progenitus | MenZa, programming :D | 03:34 |
| MenZa | progenitus→ I think your best shot is checking out launchpad | 03:35 |
| mrwes | Doonz, what fs is the share? ntfs or ext3? | 03:35 |
| MenZa | !launchpad > progenitus | 03:35 |
| ubottu | progenitus, please see my private message | 03:35 |

| TunnlRat | MenZa, shouldn't it automatically show every network within range? | 03:35 |
| mrwes | Doonz, hrmm..same here | 03:35 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ sounds like the card to me. The funny thing is, it appears to find a network with iwconfig | 03:35 |
| MenZa | it should, TunnlRat | 03:35 |
| Ropechoborra | MenZa, is there other way of contributing besides programming ? | 03:35 |
| progenitus | MenZa, thank you sir. Will check that out thoroughly :) | 03:35 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ try disabling the security on your router, temporarily | 03:35 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | what file logs SSH remote connect attempts ? | 03:35 |
| MenZa | Ropechoborra→ there's marketing, translation, helping in here... | 03:36 |

| MenZa | TunnlRat→ I have a similar switch, only mine is on... do you have an Fn keyboard shortcut that toggles it? | 03:36 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | adfev: I'd say stick with 8.10 unless you're an expert linux user | 03:36 |
| jonathan__ | adfev: probably 8.10 | 03:36 |
| Doonz | can i get you the info somehow | 03:36 |

| micca | ok this must be a fooking stupid question but i just started using ubuntu... how can i find in the synaptics like phpadmin etc... when i do a quick search i never get anything up :/ | 04:04 |
| CerberusChimera | MenZa: can I install ubuntu via command line? | 04:04 |
| MenZa | micca→ you mean phpmyadmin? | 04:04 |
| slerder | Hey guys is there any way to how long a network interface card has been up and running? thanks | 04:04 |
| biggestchops | micca: quick search is no good | 04:04 |
| MenZa | CerberusChimera→ you can install it using the alternate CD | 04:04 |
| MenZa | !alternate | CerberusChimera | 04:04 |
| ubottu | CerberusChimera: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 04:04 |
| micca | ye MenZa .. and ok biggestchops so just how DO I FIND a package sigh | 04:05 |
| biggestchops | micca: instead of doing the quick search where you type in the field that is immediately present | 04:05 |
| MenZa | micca→ personally I use apt-cache search | 04:05 |
| micca | ok | 04:05 |
| micca | ye os far ocmmandline has seemed vastly better | 04:05 |
| biggestchops | micca: click search, and use the dialog box that comes up | 04:05 |
| micca | ok biggestchops | 04:05 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ status? | 04:06 |
| biggestchops | i don't understand that quick search at all | 04:06 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, still doesn't show the card under the wifi networks | 04:06 |
| micca | does the dialiogue search the hoghlighted sub settin on th eleft or if if im highlighting 'all' will it then search everywhere? also does * work as a wildcard? | 04:06 |
| * MenZa collapses. | 04:06 | |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, though i can try connect to hidden wifi again lol | 04:06 |
| CerberusChimera | The gnome crash when I try to install ubuntu... | 04:06 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ let me google for a sec | 04:06 |
| biggestchops | i think it only searches installed packages micca. i think if you use the drop down you can pick | 04:06 |
| micca | poor MenZa , i really dont know how u do it? do u get paid for this? :pp | 04:06 |
| TunnlRat | Shhhhh | 04:06 |
| TunnlRat | don't bother him | 04:06 |
| micca | installed? LOL i want to search anything BUT installed :p | 04:07 |
| micca | oki biggestchops cheers | 04:07 |
| TunnlRat | he's converting me from windows xpism | 04:07 |
| biggestchops | later micca | 04:07 |
| micca | TunnlRat, i meant in general keeping it up to all of us | 04:07 |
| micca | not just you | 04:07 |
| micca | thanks biggestchops | 04:07 |
| MenZa | micca→ No, I just like the warm, fuzzy feeling I get when I resolve an issue. | 04:07 |
| TunnlRat | micca, oh i know i wish with the help he's given me so far already i could at min hand that man a steak!! | 04:08 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ blacklist ath_pci is still in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist, yes? | 04:08 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, yup yup | 04:08 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ there's a list of things you could try. first, the switch on your computer. flick it. "on" might mean "off" and vice versa. it's fairl confusing. | 04:09 |
| joshjtl | hey all, does anyone use prelink, or preload? | 04:09 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, yeah its a spring loaded switch | 04:09 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, in windows it will spam on the screen in big green wifi enabled and the light comes on | 04:09 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, there is a blue tooth one beside it both are dark and cold and mocking me | 04:10 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ another option could be the keyboard switch I mentioned earlier, which you press in addition to the Fn key | 04:10 |
| micca | MenZa, you go girl!!!! :D good stuff | 04:11 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ and yeah, it won't do that in Linux | 04:11 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, when i go to system>admin>hardware drivers there is an activated driver for my wifi card listed with a green light beside it | 04:11 |
| micca | and wow.. the search thing is starting to come together woohoo | 04:11 |
| micca | looks like comman line is not the only way to go | 04:11 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ aye, that should be deactivated by the blacklist-line in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist - although I suppose it wouldn't hurt to hit 'deactivate' | 04:11 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, ZOMG YOUR A GENOIUS!!!!!! | 04:11 |
| biggestchops | micca: watch your mouth! | 04:11 |

| biggestchops | or thats my constipation face | 04:13 |
| TunnlRat | MenZa, oh i will now for the last and final very hard and probably not fun part lol | 04:13 |
| MenZa | TunnlRat→ I'm a bit sad you're running the ndiswrapper driver, though. If you're ever up for it, you could re-try the ath5k driver. It might've been the same issue causing it. | 04:14 |

| TunnlRat | erimpressed | 04:18 |
| micca | evilGUI, if the file is a windows binary you shoudl be fine.. given you are not runnign it through wine.. even then it shouldnt really be toooo dangerous as such but | 04:18 |

| bcowan | slerder, you could use `grep eth0 /var/log/messages` that would probably show u it going up and down | 04:48 |
| cdm101 | jon23d: on my system, on Windows, I have a desktop shared across the screens... not sure what you mean. | 04:48 |
| c0l2e | how can use start-stop-daemon to start svnserve?? | 04:48 |
| jon23d | cdm101: I kind of figured dual monitors would be like different sides of the cube | 04:48 |
| cdm101 | jon23d: it's more like one big monitor you can drag stuff across. I'm fairly sure, though, that there was some option... something like "Separate X Screens"... that kinda did what you want to do. | 04:50 |
| micca | hmm whats the differencne between sqlbudy and phpmyadmin | 04:50 |
| jon23d | cdm101: yeah, that's what I'm finding. I guess I'll just get used to it -- though it sure does cause a lot of clutter on my taskbar | 04:51 |

| norman_ | jon23d, you just need to turn off twinview (xinerama) and each monitor will be its own desktop (own cube)... I have three monitors set up this way. | 04:53 |

| random12 | grubisevil, then DO IT! | 05:25 |
| grubisevil | i cant | 05:25 |
| random12 | bummer | 05:25 |

| grubisevil | no what is is | 05:25 |
| ziroday | theweeks: hmm, its an intel graphics card so there shouldn't be much of an issue | 05:26 |

| random12 | grubisevil: well thats differnet =P | 05:26 |
| grubisevil | what is the iso | 05:26 |
| random12 | grubisevil: grub uses files from the ubuntu partitions to boot properly | 05:27 |
| random12 | grubisevil: google it | 05:27 |
| Haki | grubisevil: www.supergrubdisk.org | 05:27 |
| ziroday | theweeks: so you bootup, it doesn't even get to a login screen? | 05:27 |

| ziroday | bimzee: why are you compiling make from source? You should uses packages instead | 05:40 |
| ziroday | !packages | 05:40 |
| ubottu | You can browse and search for Ubuntu packages using !Synaptic, !Adept, "apt-cache search <keywords or regex>", or online at http://packages.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu has about 20000 packages available, so please *search* for an official package before installing things in awkward ways! | 05:40 |
| ynk | ziroday, i meant comparing GIMPshop to Gimp. =) | 05:40 |
| bimzee | its not make | 05:40 |
| bimzee | its gmake | 05:40 |
| ziroday | ynk: oh, well its meant to photoshopify gimp. Personally I prefer it the other way around but thats just me | 05:40 |
| ziroday | bimzee: make *is* gmake | 05:40 |
| ziroday | bimzee: http://www.gnu.org/software/make/ | 05:41 |

| ynk | ziroday, yeah. i'll try my best to get used to gimp, i guess.. | 05:41 |
| bimzee | no i tried | 05:41 |
| doink1212 | no problem | 05:41 |
| ziroday | bimzee: for the last time. make is gmake. You already have make installed. You should NOT compile make from source | 05:41 |
| bimzee | make is not working | 05:41 |
| doink1212 | i think ubottu might have helped me with the cache search | 05:42 |

| Geoffrey2 | anyone know what the ubuntu equivalent of libxul-unstable and mozilla-plugin would be? | 05:50 |

| nado | alexmhso, can't you point to that location in banshee... i'm guessing here i have no clue | 05:52 |
| alexmhso | well | 05:52 |
| alexmhso | nado: i created a folder on my external drive | 05:52 |
| Geoffrey2 | nado, I see four different files, but libxul-unstable is not among them | 05:53 |
| alexmhso | nado: called banshee music, and i set banshee to keep it's library there, but im concerned that if i removed the drive and put it back, banshee wont find it in the same pathway. also, for some reason i cant copy the music from the drive in the itunes music folder into banshee | 05:53 |
| nado | Geoffrey2 what do you need it for ? | 05:54 |
| eternal | Hi Just updated to 8.04 should the java be updated or do i need to re-install it? | 05:55 |

| nado | Geoffrey2, ./config should give you a minimum version for libxul | 05:56 |

| Geoffrey2 | nado, remind me, what file would have all that information in it? | 05:59 |
| arunreddy | My System hangs for 3-4 secs pretty frequently what might be the problem.. As and when i open firefox its more frequent.!!! Using 8.10 ... | 05:59 |
| krishnan | John`1: relax its easy | 05:59 |
| nado | Geoffrey2, the standard when building from source is to run ./configure | 05:59 |
| John`1 | k | 05:59 |
| nado | Geoffrey2, when configure has a failed dependency it should tell you what is missing and possibly the minimum version that is required for that specific library to meet the dependency | 05:59 |

| arunreddy | ny idea about 9.04 | 06:01 |
| arunreddy | did you give it a try | 06:01 |
| John`1 | so Krishnan how do i do this? | 06:01 |
| krishnan | arunreddy: 9.04 will be LTS and hence it should be good | 06:01 |
| Geoffrey2 | nado, the message is "No package 'libxul-unstable' found" | 06:02 |

| zoerb | How does gcc search for include files? I installed clutter, and the clutter-dev package, but I have to include the whole "clutter-0.8/clutter/clutter.h" in order to get it to compile. How is this normally done? | 06:02 |
| krishnan | John`1: u need to relax, take deep breath and think hard,if u dnt get then search in google, if not ask here if everything fails, bang ur head on the wall and think if tht too fails, thant get over it buddy | 06:02 |
| John`1 | krishnan thats not much help idiot | 06:03 |
| alexmhso | nado: thanks it's working...copying is going to take all night or longer, but thank you | 06:03 |
| nado | zoerb, -Ipath_to_include_files (that is a big i at the beginning) | 06:03 |
| mafsi | krishnan: so 9.04 is LTS? good | 06:03 |
| krishnan | John`1 relax john i was cheering u up. | 06:04 |
| krishnan | see | 06:04 |
| theweeks | so, no ideas then? | 06:04 |
| nado | so zoerb you need to add something like -Iclutter-0.8/clutter/ | 06:04 |
| John`1 | im not upset and if u wanna joke maybe this isnt the room for u.. this is a support channel | 06:04 |
| nado | zoerb, but isnt there a configure script ? | 06:04 |
| nado | alexmhso, no problem | 06:05 |
| krishnan | John`1: insert the ubuntu CD and restart and try to repair it. if that does nt work then i would suggest you to take back up and reinstall cos wen u remove some package the ones related to ubuntu might have been affected. this is the only possible way. and pls do not teach me manners. hope this solves ur problem | 06:05 |
| eternal | Nado: If i have all up to date java is there a reason a applet isn't showing in firefox? | 06:05 |
| zoerb | I thought something should have been configured so that I could have just done #include <clutter/clutter.h> | 06:06 |
| krishnan | mafsi: it should be | 06:06 |
| theweeks | am i silenced or something? | 06:06 |
| krishnan | mafsi: cos LTS versions are more robust than other normal versions | 06:06 |

| tyler_d | o0Chris0o: is it http or https? | 07:01 |
| o0Chris0o | tyler_d→ I don't have to enter http or https, it registered fine on the website, the program isn't accepting it for some reason | 07:02 |
| tyler_d | o0Chris0o: program? | 07:03 |
| o0Chris0o | tyler_d→ yes Ekiga | 07:03 |

| tyler_d | o0Chris0o: so did you go through the wizard? or is this an after the setup that you registered? | 07:09 |

| tyler_d | mhiku: try google. | 07:10 |
| o0Chris0o | tyler_d→ next to my account details it says "could not register (unauthorized) | 07:10 |
| tyler_d | o0Chris0o: have you tried a different username for registration? | 07:11 |
| o0Chris0o | tyler_d→ not really, I want to keep what I have | 07:11 |
| o0Chris0o | tyler_d→ odd, after I deleted the account on ekiga app and restarted, re-entered the information, it now works | 07:14 |
| tyler_d | ok, o0Chris0o, from what I read, this is due to an invalid certificate ie. web related | 07:15 |
| tyler_d | o0Chris0o: I would simply e-mail them and use the new account for a time being | 07:15 |

| timboy_ | TheFunkbomb, no more getting smashed for you! | 07:26 |
| TheFunkbomb | lol | 07:27 |
| TheFunkbomb | I can't figure out how to get it back | 07:27 |

| oliver_ | Hi all, just wondering am i able to share my Ubuntu's internet connection with my WM6.1 phone via bluetooth? | 07:28 |
| timboy_ | When you get GPG key error : the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY FC6D7D9D009ED615 | 07:28 |
| timboy_ | you can use the following to add the key: | 07:28 |

| TheFunkbomb | okay, I'll try | 07:28 |
| land | tyler_d, what do you mean? | 07:28 |
| Kartagis | MikeyPooh, is it your gateway? | 07:29 |
| tyler_d | land: commands in the cli(command line interface) are typically bash commands..... bash is a programming language | 07:29 |
| MikeyPooh | the server is our gateway yes | 07:29 |
| TheFunkbomb | now it just keeps requesting a key | 07:29 |
| land | oh | 07:29 |
| TheFunkbomb | and nothing | 07:29 |
| timboy_ | TheFunkbomb, wierd works for me... | 07:29 |
| tyler_d | land: my best suggestion is to google for specific commands... when in doubt google as well as from within the cli type man "command" | 07:30 |
| timboy_ | are you getting a GPG error? | 07:30 |
| TheFunkbomb | weird | 07:30 |
| Kartagis | MikeyPooh, it should bbe whatever IP you access it with | 07:30 |
| TheFunkbomb | oh, it worked. I just needed to be patient | 07:30 |

| timboy_ | frybye, doubt that will work... ;) | 07:31 |
| elluce | one thing is killing me: i want ubuntu to restore all my windows after logging in. i can'ty find it! | 07:32 |
| John`1 | how do i disable the splash during boot and when im shutting down the system on Ubuntu 8.04?? | 07:32 |
| unimatrix9 | is there an fix for the fact that synaptic quick search does not find packages? | 07:32 |
| frybye | so who has a real tip - azureus yells at me that I need to download flash and i have the 64bit alpha von adobe already and generally it works fine.. | 07:32 |
| timboy_ | elluce, go to system preferences sessions | 07:32 |
| Jordan_U | elluce, System > Preferences > Session | 07:32 |
| frybye | so there is going to be a config some place that i need to alter or?? | 07:32 |
| timboy_ | elluce, in the options check that box | 07:32 |
| timboy_ | frybye, probably more of an azureus mailing list question... | 07:33 |
| elluce | timboy_, thanks. i am trying it now ;-) | 07:34 |
| jhass840 | Does anyone else get white noise when hovering over music files sometimes? | 07:34 |
| unimatrix9 | john'1 is it not in system / administr / login , that you can set the options for splash? | 07:34 |
| jhass840 | this is in the Jaunty beta | 07:34 |

| Surlent777 | ...wow. /names took almost five seconds to get through all of this...anyway, I found a Genesis emulator called Gens/GS, and it worked wonderfully. Now, it suddenly doesn't want to give me any sound, for no apparent reason. It also has an annoying habit of not showing any information whatsoever when running in a terminal. Does anyone have any idea of what I might do to fix this? | 07:40 |
| timboy_ | Surlent777, gen/gs mailing list | 07:40 |
| timboy_ | Surlent777, if normal ubuntu sound works we can't help | 07:41 |
| Surlent777 | timboy_: I figured it was a long shot anyway | 07:41 |
| timboy_ | Surlent777, sorry... one good question is did you install an ubuntu deb | 07:42 |
| timboy_ | or did you do a source build? | 07:43 |
| Surlent777 | timboy_: I seem to have had a deb file, as it shows up in Synaptic | 07:44 |
| Surlent777 | timboy_: Is there a simple way for it to double-check whether all of the dependencies are met, in case I accidentally deleted something essential? | 07:45 |
| timboy_ | Surlent777, if you have the deb installed then all the dependencies have to be met in order to install properly. I was just making sure it was the maintained version. You could try to install from source... or see if there is a newer version on the maintainer's site... | 07:46 |
| Surlent777 | timboy_: What I find strange is that it WAS working. Now, when I go to tick off "Enable Sound", it refuses to be ticked | 07:47 |
| timboy_ | Surlent777, sounds like an app bug to me. look for update or build from source | 07:48 |
| Surlent777 | timboy_: ok, thanks for the advice | 07:49 |

| hirange | nice. i tried 4.0.1 or somesuch and didn't care for it | 08:28 |
| hirange | but i'm sure 4.2 will be nicer | 08:28 |
| a | cheers frog, if it's likely to be fixed, then fair enough, thanks again | 08:28 |
| frogonwheels | sebsebseb: cool - I'm finding it quite stable even now - not really extending it but still.. | 08:28 |
| frogonwheels | sebsebseb: a few 'glitches' but nothing too untoward. | 08:28 |
| kyledr_ | why is ubuntu so gnome-centric? so many things people just rely on it auto-working, and if you don't take the stock install, it won't work eaily at all, i mean gentoo is easier to get wireless working for christ's sake | 08:29 |
| sebsebseb | frogonwheels: no my KDE went all weird after upgrading to the alpha and remians weird in the beta, but this isn't really the channel to talk abot 9.04 | 08:29 |
| Flannel | Guys, take Jaunty to the Jaunty channel. Thanks. | 08:29 |
| sebsebseb | #ubuntu+1 to talk about Jaunty | 08:29 |
| frogonwheels | no | 08:29 |
| hirange | I'm wondering if i'm totally going to mess things up if i install the latest version of ntfs-3g from source on Kubuntu 8.04? | 08:29 |
| frogonwheels | Flannel: np. | 08:29 |
| Flannel | kyledr_: #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support questions, thanks. | 08:29 |
| ziroday | hirange: at least remove your currently installed version of ntfs-3g first | 08:30 |
| hirange | ziroday: ok | 08:30 |
| kyledr_ | Flannel: how do i get wpa_gui working? | 08:30 |
| kyledr_ | Flannel: I can't use network-manager apparently | 08:30 |
| sebsebseb | I am in #ubuntu+1 so join guys and we can continue | 08:30 |
| Jordan_U | hirange, Why do you want to install the latest version? | 08:30 |
| nado | kyledr, install wicd | 08:30 |
| kyledr_ | sudo apt-cache search wicd returned nothing | 08:31 |
| swoop5713 | how can I install gimp-2.2 additionally on 8.10? | 08:31 |
| Jordan_U | kyledr, Do you have universe enabled? | 08:31 |
| kyledr_ | should, last i checked | 08:32 |
| nado | kyledr, add this line your /etc/apt/sources.list : deb http://apt.wicd.net intrepid extras | 08:32 |
| nado | kyledr, then : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install wicd | 08:33 |

| ftab | Hi Where can I find the Ubuntu Humun Theme icons? | 08:35 |
| hirange | sweet. i uninstalled ntfs-3g and installed the new one from source. had to install libtool before the autogen.sh would work tho | 08:35 |
| hirange | now to see if i can still use my ntfs drive | 08:35 |
| kyledr_ | nado: is there a gui for this? | 08:35 |
| nado | yes | 08:35 |
| DigitalKiwi | gui for package management? yuck | 08:35 |
| nado | should be in the top right once installed | 08:35 |
| nado | or it's at reboot | 08:36 |
| kyledr_ | top right of what? i'm using ion | 08:36 |
| nado | well in your panel | 08:36 |
| kyledr_ | my nonexistent panel? | 08:36 |
| nado | where your running programs are | 08:36 |
| choice | can some help me- i have dependency problem installing smbfs : choice@choicegrow:~$ sudo apt-get install smbfs http://paste.ubuntu.com/143323/ | 08:36 |
| kyledr_ | i've tried running: wicd and it just says "/var/run/wicd/wicd.pid" | 08:37 |
| nado | wicd-client | 08:37 |
| kyledr_ | or wicd-client which does "attempting to connect tray to daemon... success. done." | 08:37 |
| hirange | sweet. it's working. I highly recommend upgrading your ntfs-3g on ubuntu if you use ntfs drives a lot. I tried to do a backup to my ntfs drive the other day and after about 75GB it was using 100% of my CPU and copying maybe 0.5-1 MB/s | 08:37 |
| kyledr_ | but it makes no programs show up | 08:37 |
| hirange | the revision of ntfs-3g in the ubuntu repositories is way out of date | 08:37 |
| kyledr_ | i have no tray first of all | 08:38 |
| nado | it's in the "task bar"... no panel no gui .. you can uninstall | 08:38 |
| hirange | there's been like 8 releases since the most current ntfs-3g in the repos and a couple fixed major bugs | 08:38 |
| kyledr_ | nado: so can i get wpa_gui working? | 08:38 |
| IronWilliamCash | simple question: is there a keyboard shortcut to open a terminal ? | 08:39 |
| SrEstroncio | umm, hello, I was wondering if someone could help me with something | 08:39 |
| nado | i don't know what that is.. never used it | 08:39 |
| Rytmis | IronWilliamCash: I don't think so, but I'm fairly sure you can configure one. | 08:39 |
| kyledr_ | does anyone know if it's possible to get wpa_gui working with ubuntu? | 08:39 |
| kyledr_ | IronWilliamCash: in ion it's f2 :P | 08:39 |
| Rytmis | IronWilliamCash: or, if you feel like typing, alt+f2 opens the run dialog | 08:39 |
| IronWilliamCash | Rystmis: thx I'll look into that | 08:39 |
| hirange | ironwilliamcash: if you run KDE i recommend katapult | 08:39 |
| IronWilliamCash | oh oki that might do it | 08:39 |
| nado | kyledr_, did you try installing it ? | 08:40 |
| IronWilliamCash | hirange: nah I'm on gnome | 08:40 |
| nado | kyledr, i mean what's the problem with it ? | 08:40 |
| jbu311 | hi all, i recently changed my linux user's password, and now everytime I log in, it asks me to type in my (old) password for the keyring for the wireless...how do I get it to stop asking? | 08:40 |
| mib_t625dk | can someone running 8.10 or 9.04 confirm if pmount works with removable media such as a flash drive. it seems to be broken under 8.10 | 08:41 |
| c0l2e | how can i check who's connecting my ubuntu using netstat ?? | 08:41 |
| kyledr_ | nado: i uninstalled wicd. i figured out my problem, wpa_supplicant needs to be running for wpa_gui to work, duh | 08:41 |
| wartalker | when i log out then log in, the knetworkmanager icon not dock in tray, but become a widget, why? | 08:41 |
| LostChain | does anyone know why i cannot see my ubuntu share in windows | 08:41 |
| johnf | anyone have any tips for upgrading a feisty box using do-release-upgrade? I somehow need it to use old-releases for backports rather than $country.archive.org | 08:42 |
| hirange | ironwilliamcash: you might try gnome + do - do.davebsd.com | 08:42 |
| sebsebseb | !upgrade | johnf | 08:42 |
| ubottu | johnf: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 08:42 |
| Flannel | johnf: yes, you do. Switch your repos over to old-releases and do a fully update, and then you can use the regular upgrade tools | 08:42 |
| hirange | c0l2e: type 'sudo netstat -an | more' | 08:42 |
| IronWilliamCash | hirange: thx mate :) | 08:43 |
| nado | LostChain, more details please ? Are you trying to access over the network. Or on the same machine ? | 08:43 |
| jbu311 | ok, how do I configure the password used to access my keyring? | 08:43 |
| LostChain | over the network | 08:43 |
| hirange | ironwilliamcash: you're welcome :) i use katapult for kde and I find it way useful | 08:44 |
| LostChain | nado: i have made my share folder shareable in ubuntu but windows doesnt reconize | 08:44 |
| LostChain | dawg LOL | 08:44 |
| IronWilliamCash | hirange: I'm on the do website now and downloading :) Hope it works well | 08:44 |
| sebsebseb | LostChain: Samba is more for viewing WIndows partitions in Linux, than the other way round | 08:45 |
| sebsebseb | !samba | 08:45 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 08:45 |
| LostChain | nado: well doesnt that suck | 08:45 |
| sebsebseb | LostChain: partitions? I meant shared folders | 08:45 |
| shivamib | LostChain: nope it's quite alright | 08:45 |
| LostChain | nado: yea i can see windows shares from ubuntu but i just cant do it the other way around, i thought maybe someone else knew | 08:45 |
| SrEstroncio | Um, I have a problem, I want to save some files from a dual boot box (XP and ubuntu), right now windows is dead, I wanted to take out the data using a an external HDD, but ubuntu mounts the drive as Read only and I can't move the data, could someone help me please? | 08:46 |
| shivamib | LostChain: you need to have smbd running | 08:46 |
| shivamib | (samba daemon) | 08:46 |
| sebsebseb | LostChain: why would you want Windows to have access to Ubuntu anyway? | 08:46 |
| hirange | SrEstroncio: to clarify, ubuntu is mounting your external HDD as read only? | 08:46 |
| jbu311 | anyone know how to change a keyring password? | 08:46 |
| swoop5713 | is gimp 2.2 still in the repo? | 08:46 |
| SrEstroncio | Yes | 08:46 |
| LostChain | shivamib: ok... | 08:46 |
| SrEstroncio | hirange: Yes | 08:46 |
| jbu311 | you can access your linux partitions using the program explore2fs (I think that's how you spell it) | 08:47 |
| === boy is now known as Guest58551 | ||
| hirange | srestroncio: you may need to unmount it and then use a command line switch to make it mount as read/write. I believe the reason it is mounted as read only by default is because the devs weren't certain the ntfs support in ubuntu was stable when they put that feature in. | 08:47 |
| xun | hello, I have dual monitors, when I play flash video full screen in a browser(such as youtube), it always goes to the secondary screen, is there a way for me to change that? | 08:47 |
| simplexio | SrEstroncio: ntfs3g is magic word | 08:47 |
| hirange | srestroncio: i'll see if i can find you a webpage that explains it | 08:48 |
| shivamib | mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/hda1 -o force | 08:48 |
| gamla_kossan | hai guise :> | 08:48 |
| LostChain | sebsebseb: well i have an hp touchsmart in the other room, and i use it as a tv and movie viewer | 08:48 |
| gamla_kossan | is there a metapackage for installing kde4? | 08:48 |
| simplexio | SrEstroncio: assuming that hd is in ntfs format, i could be also fat32 which is another magic word | 08:48 |
| gamla_kossan | (I'm running gnome atm) | 08:48 |
| glitsj16 | swoop5713: according to packages.ubuntu.com gimp 2.2.x is only available for dapper .. gimp 2.6 not working for you ? | 08:48 |
| SrEstroncio | Simplexio and hirange: What do you mean by "magic word"? | 08:48 |
| LostChain | sebsebseb: i want to make my ubuntu system be my movie server for the house | 08:48 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: yes of course | 08:49 |
| Flannel | gamla_kossan: Which version of Ubuntu are you using? | 08:49 |
| gamla_kossan | Flannel: 8.10 | 08:49 |
| gamla_kossan | sebsebseb: sweet :> | 08:49 |
| SrEstroncio | Would you mind guiding me step by stem through the process of mounting it as read/write? | 08:49 |
| Flannel | gamla_kossan: then install the kubuntu-desktop package | 08:49 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: gamla old in Swedish, are you Swedish? you can sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop for KDE 4.1 or get the PPA for KDE 4.2 | 08:49 |
| gamla_kossan | Flannel: ah, right, thanks :> | 08:49 |
| shivamib | LostChain: no problem, just make sure you have samba installed | 08:49 |
| gamla_kossan | sebsebseb: yep :> | 08:49 |
| swoop5713 | glitsj16, I need it too, because I read a book about it. | 08:49 |
| shivamib | LostChain: service samba status | 08:50 |
| yazden | ihave a question as i am new to ubuntu | 08:50 |
| LostChain | shivamib: how would i be able to determind that | 08:50 |
| sebsebseb | yazden: ok just ask the question | 08:50 |
| sebsebseb | !ask > yazden | 08:50 |
| ubottu | yazden, please see my private message | 08:50 |
| NimbleRabit | Anyone know how I can "lock" my mouse into one monitor while using TwinView? | 08:50 |
| gamla_kossan | oh, I thought 4.2 was in the standard repos | 08:50 |
| yazden | i am havin trouble with my wifi card | 08:50 |
| kwork | can i mark package installed somehow, when it failed at configuration because i removed some files, but otherwise the application is working okey, but when i try to add something that depends on it, it yells at me because of "broken dep" can i mark that packet working somehow ? | 08:50 |
| gamla_kossan | so if I want to run 4.2, I need to add another repo? | 08:50 |
| LostChain | shivamib: i checked my processes and smbd is running | 08:50 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: no Ubuntu only does security updates, 4.2 does not class as one | 08:50 |
| simplexio | SrEstroncio: google search word | 08:50 |
| b3rz3rk3r | NimbleRabit, have u tried synergy. i know how to do so with that | 08:50 |
| gamla_kossan | sebsebseb: ah | 08:50 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: no you do the PPA | 08:51 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: or wait untill 9.04 where you get KDE 4.2 by default | 08:51 |
| hirange | srestroncio: try this http://www.swerdna.net.au/linhowtontfs.html | 08:51 |
| shivamib | LostChain: so the easy way now is you right click on a folder, choose sharing options | 08:51 |
| shivamib | (the folder you want to share, a-la windows) | 08:51 |
| gamla_kossan | sebsebseb: hm...... nah, wanna try it out right away actually. | 08:51 |
| glitsj16 | swoop5713: fair enough .. i don't know if it's possible to have both 2.2 and 2.6 side by side on the same ubuntu though, try to get it from packages.ubuntu.com from dapper section (usual dependency hell warning activated) | 08:51 |
| NimbleRabit | b3rz3rk3r: isn't synergy a thing for going between more than 1 computer? I'm wanting to lock into one monitor on the same computer | 08:51 |
| shivamib | share this folder, guest account | 08:51 |
| gamla_kossan | so PPA huh? *googles* | 08:51 |
| LostChain | shivamib: done. the folder is shared | 08:52 |
| shivamib | see if it works | 08:52 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: i'll get a link hold on | 08:52 |
| shivamib | now try to find it on windows | 08:52 |
| hirange | srestroncio: the 'rw' and umask flags on the mount commant are important to make sure it is writable | 08:52 |
| lepassive | how can i set metacity instead of openbox in LXDE ? | 08:52 |
| yazden | is it my driver? | 08:52 |
| Fitch | Hi guys I just installed ubuntu on a laptop never used it before, and I have some questions about wireless connections, drivers, and management of hardware in general | 08:52 |
| b3rz3rk3r | NimbleRabit, ah.. i thought thats what twinview did.. n/m then.. sry | 08:52 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: and if you don't know what a ppa is, well | 08:52 |
| gamla_kossan | sebsebseb: 's alrgight, just found it :) | 08:52 |
| sebsebseb | !ppa > gamla_kossan | 08:52 |
| ubottu | gamla_kossan, please see my private message | 08:52 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: yeah on the Kubuntu site some where etc yeah | 08:53 |
| hirange | srestroncio: the relevant part of that link is the 'Temporary Mounts for Internal Drives' section | 08:53 |
| b3rz3rk3r | NimbleRabit, power down the monitor when u want it locked? | 08:53 |
| swoop5713 | glitsj16, ok, thanks! what do you mean by dep hell warning activated? | 08:53 |
| shivamib | !ask > Fitch | 08:53 |
| ubottu | Fitch, please see my private message | 08:53 |
| gamla_kossan | sebsebseb: I'm really a fedora guy, but am switching to ubuntu. | 08:53 |
| b3rz3rk3r | NimbleRabit, have u tried asking on the twin forums? | 08:53 |
| gamla_kossan | so no, I'm not really familiar with ppa. | 08:53 |
| shivamib | LostChain: did it work? | 08:53 |
| SrEstroncio | hirange: Wait, what? | 08:53 |
| LostChain | shivamib: windows can see the server but the folder does not apear | 08:53 |
| shivamib | uh... | 08:53 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: how come? and yeah I started with Fedora Core 2 and 4, then went Ubuntu, and been with since the second release | 08:53 |
| kyledr_ | why does sudo iwlist scan give me no results? | 08:53 |
| NimbleRabit | b3rz3rk3r: haven't tried asking there yet no, thought I would come here first. | 08:54 |
| hirange | srestroncio: before you get started you might want to run 'sudo fdisk -l' which will give you a list of all your drives and partitions so you can identify what linux has named the external drive | 08:54 |
| sebsebseb | gamla_kossan: we are starting to go off topic, plus I wanted to since your a Sweed :D I was going to pm you, or you can pm me first | 08:54 |
| LostChain | shivamib: this is what i have been dealing with, i feel i am forgetting somethig | 08:54 |
| glitsj16 | swoop5713: well, if you have gimp 2.6 already installed, it will probably complain when you try to install 2.2 ... dependency hell refers to things that might crash if you mix packages for dapper on intrepid | 08:54 |
| shivamib | LostChain: hang on | 08:55 |
| LostChain | shivamib: ok | 08:55 |
| Fitch | How do I get my wireless card to work? The option to find networks in my area is always greyed out. I have tried using ndiswrapper to get the drivers installed using information from 3 different tutorials I found and it still wont work | 08:56 |
| yazden | i cant get my built in wifi to work on my Eee pc? | 08:56 |
| glitsj16 | swoop5713: only alternative i see is trying to build gimp 2.2 manually and giving it a slightly different package name via the checkinstall package | 08:56 |
| marcel1607 | yazden, what kind is it? | 08:56 |
| yazden | what kind is what? | 08:56 |
| nhasian | dang both of you guys messaged at the same time about wifi adaptors? :) | 08:57 |
| marcel1607 | yazden, brand of wifi | 08:57 |
| yazden | idk its built in | 08:57 |
| Fitch | heh its been really bugging me today, and I just installed Ubuntu so Im not up to speed on it | 08:57 |
| nhasian | yazden, Fitch open a terminal and type "lshw -C network" | 08:57 |
| swoop5713 | glitsj16, well I will try it. but I have no idea of checkinstall | 08:57 |
| Fitch | ok hand on let me get my laptop in here | 08:57 |
| marcel1607 | yazden, can you do "lspci -v" and lookup the exact wifi info | 08:57 |
| kyledr_ | my network interface eth1 is up but it won't give any scan results, any ideas? | 08:57 |
| nhasian | yazden, Fitch also are you running ubuntu 8.04 or 8.10? | 08:57 |
| yazden | how do i do that? | 08:58 |
| nhasian | Open a Terminal from the menu Applications → Accessories → Terminal | 08:58 |
| marie_blubb | I changed the rights of smb.conf to 644 to work in it how do I return to the attributes that were entered before. which number was that (just the owner was allowed to write & read) | 08:59 |
| glitsj16 | swoop5713: checkinstall is used to replace the usual "sudo make install" step (with "sudo checkinstall) .. you will get extra options in that step to change package name, version # etc. and the added benefit of being able to uninstall via the regular command or synaptic integrate in dpkg | 09:00 |
| yazden | what am looking for? | 09:00 |
| LostChain | shivamib: do you think maybe this problem i am having has anything to do with the fact that my share on ubuntu is an ntfs partition | 09:00 |
| c0l2e | how can I check connected clients to my machine using netstat ?? | 09:01 |
| Equs | yazden this may help you a lot:http://www.array.org/ubuntu/ | 09:01 |
| swoop5713 | glitsj16, ah, thanks that helped I will give it a try. | 09:02 |
| BrixSat | hello | 09:02 |
| BrixSat | anyone here with eggdrop experience? | 09:02 |
| glitsj16 | swoop5713: that way actually it would be possible i believe to have both gimps side by side if you rename gimp 2.2 package to something like swoop-gimp or anything, goodluck | 09:02 |
| shivamib | LostChain: it is? | 09:02 |
| shivamib | LostChain: probably not, but i'd recommend using ext3 | 09:03 |
| LostChain | shivamib: yes, i have a dual boot system and my 1.5 terabyte is an ntfs partition | 09:03 |
| swoop5713 | glitsj16, ok ty | 09:03 |
| shivamib | LostChain: you can repartition it on the live cd using gparted | 09:03 |
| Fitch | ok typed in lspci -v, what am I looking for? it says access denied by capabilities fuessing thats not good | 09:03 |
| creator-cdsc | i am currently using gnome, which are the good pdf readers available? | 09:03 |
| Fitch | er guessing | 09:03 |
| LostChain | shivamib: yes but that would become a problem if i need to access that drive in windows xp | 09:03 |
| wakwe | i'm confused by an aspect of python, maybe you all can help. I have a set of objects in a list. these objects have an instance var count. for some reason when i try to decrement the count var by a class method, it'll update inside the class, but the changes won't be passed back to the array. if i just call element.count=0, in the main fn, the changes are reflected. why is this? | 09:04 |
| Flannel | wakwe: Try ##python or #ubuntu-offtopic | 09:04 |
| wakwe | Flannel: will do | 09:04 |
| rbo_ | hello! | 09:04 |
| shivamib | LostChain: no, they're separate partitions, it's how it's supposed to be | 09:04 |
| rbo_ | what's the difference between Hardy and Gutsy? | 09:04 |
| shivamib | you shouldn't have to access ubuntu partition under windows... | 09:04 |
| Flannel | rbo_: Gutsy is 7.10, Hardy is 8.04. Hardy is an LTS, supported for 3 years on the desktop. Gutsy isn't. It's also actually just about to go end of Life. You definately should not be installing Gutsy at this point in time. | 09:05 |
| _StelaNinja_ | Hello.. | 09:06 |
| yazden | should i copy and paste the whole thing? | 09:06 |
| nhasian | marie_blubb, does this help? -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11653 2009-01-05 23:44 smb.conf | 09:06 |
| glitsj16 | creator-cdsc: evince and epdfview are some of your options | 09:06 |
| BrixSat | anyone here with eggdrop experience? | 09:06 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: LTS? | 09:06 |
| nhasian | BrixSat, that sounds familiar... is that an irc thing? | 09:07 |
| Flannel | rbo_: Long Term Support. | 09:07 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: why is it supported for 3 years? | 09:07 |
| _StelaNinja_ | Anyone here who knows how to set the preferences for the new notifications in Jaunty?? | 09:07 |
| Flannel | rbo_: Because it's an LTS release. | 09:07 |
| Flannel | _StelaNinja_: #ubuntu+1 for Jaunty support, thanks. | 09:07 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: what's going to happen after 3 years? | 09:07 |
| _StelaNinja_ | Thanks.. | 09:07 |
| kraut | moin | 09:08 |
| Fitch | :nhiasian running 8.10 | 09:08 |
| Flannel | rbo_: well, the server is supported for 5. But, when stuff goes EOL (end of life, at the end of the support term) it's not updated anymore. No more security fixes, etc. Non-LTS versions are only supported for 18 months. | 09:08 |
| sebsebseb | rbo_: no more security updates | 09:08 |
| BrixSat | nhasian yes | 09:08 |

| rbo_ | sebsebseb, Flannel: and if i reinstall it, i will have an updates again? | 09:09 |
| shivamib | in 3 years duke nukem forever should be released | 09:09 |
| Peddy | How do I open a .jar file with openjdk? | 09:09 |
| Flannel | rbo_: If you reinstlal what? | 09:09 |
| nhasian | BrixSat, i thought so.... man i havent heard eggdrop since i ran bitchx via telnet like 15 years ago | 09:09 |
| shivamib | eggdrop is da bomb | 09:10 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: the new copy of it | 09:10 |
| Flannel | rbo_: Oh, a newer version? Yes. Although most people upgrade instead of reinstalling. | 09:10 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: or it doesn't matter as it's term of Hardy? | 09:10 |
| marie_blubb | nhasian sorry I#M beginner I wanted to use udo chown root:admin /etc/samba/smb.conf and then sudo chmod 664 /etc/samba/smb.conf. and instead of 644 I need a number with less rights | 09:10 |
| BrixSat | nhasian wooowwww to many years man | 09:10 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: term of life | 09:11 |
| Flannel | rbo_: Hardy will be supported until 2011 (April). 10.04 will come out, and also be an LTS in April of 2010. You can upgrade straight from LTS to LTS, so you can upgrade to 10.04 in a year when it comes out. | 09:11 |
| shivamib | rbo_: by then you'll be using a newer release | 09:11 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: ok, i go for Hardy | 09:11 |
| sebsebseb | rbo_: I would recommend staying with 8.04 | 09:11 |
| k1en | how can i find out where is the wallpaper directory in ubuntu? | 09:11 |
| sebsebseb | rbo_: and then doing a clean install for the next LTS | 09:11 |
| rbo_ | sebsebseb: i need ec2 version | 09:11 |
| Flannel | k1en: It's... /usr/share/artwork/? /usr/share/ definately. After that its hazy. | 09:12 |
| rbo_ | sebsebseb: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EC2 | 09:12 |
| sebsebseb | rbo_: then Ext4 the new file system, should be nice and stable :d. anyway I missed some of your chat | 09:12 |
| Fitch | nhasian: did you want me to copy and paste you the information from putting lspci -v into the terminal? | 09:12 |
| === croppa_ is now known as croppa | ||

| rbo_ | Flannel: tnx | 09:12 |

| BrixSat | i cant telnet to my bot :( | 09:12 |
| rbo_ | Flannel: i'd go for Gentoo, but we don't have a time | 09:12 |
| nhasian | Fitch, no we dont need all the info, just the line that says what chipset your wifi is | 09:12 |
| k1en | Flannel, thanks backgrounds... | 09:13 |
| shivamib | rbo_: you can always go with debian ;) | 09:13 |
| rbo_ | shivamib: we did | 09:13 |
| yazden | what line am i looking for, for the chipset? | 09:13 |
| Fitch | nhasian: oh its a broadcom BCM4311 | 09:13 |
| nhasian | the command "lshw -C network" might be easier to work with than lspci | 09:13 |
| nhasian | Fitch, good thats what we needed. did you say what OS you were running? | 09:14 |
| Fitch | yeah 8.10 | 09:14 |
| c0l2e | in awk | 09:14 |
| c0l2e | how can I get $5 and $6 ?? | 09:15 |
| c0l2e | with spaces in between them? | 09:15 |
| nhasian | Fitch, just out of curiosity, have you tried the new beta of ubuntu 9.04? just boot off the livecd and see if your wifi works | 09:15 |
| c0l2e | like awk {'print $5 $6'}... but with space between them | 09:15 |
| Fitch | I have the driver .inf and tried to apply it that way using ndiswrapper | 09:15 |
| zagibu | is anyone skilled with kvm? I have a problem that a just-installed winxp guest can't find it's disk at boot | 09:15 |
| zagibu | its disk, i mean | 09:15 |
| yazden | is it the hardwre lister linee? | 09:16 |
| Fitch | no I havent would probably have to downlad it and mount it to install again | 09:16 |
| nhasian | Fitch, since we're only 2-3 weeks away from the next version of ubuntu you might give it a shot. | 09:16 |
| creator-cdsc | in linux, are there any applications available which install a software for you? (like windows installer in windows) (apart from Synaptic packet manager or apt or aptitude) | 09:16 |
| nhasian | Fitch, no you dont need to install it. you just burn it to a blank CD or put it on a thumbdrive and boot directly off the media. | 09:16 |
| amigo_rich | marie_blubb: 0600 would just be read and write for the user that owns the file | 09:16 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: synaptic is apt, and apt is your manager | 09:17 |
| knat | i cant seem to install apache, i uncommented all the repos in /etc/apt/sources.list | 09:17 |
| nhasian | yazden, did you find your chipset? | 09:17 |
| yazden | i am wondering what line to look at | 09:17 |
| marie_blubb | amigo_rich thanks and what would it be if the owner can read and write and the others just read (thats how it was before | 09:17 |
| Fitch | where do I find the download? only see 8.10 and 8.04 on the site | 09:17 |
| georgg | hello,i have a question about dedicated server hosting...i have a dedicated server at rackspace , i am veery very pleased with the quality but i cant afford the bill anymore...any other cheaper but reliable solution? | 09:17 |
| joneskoo | on the main page there's a huge try 9.04 beta | 09:18 |
| nhasian | yazden, it will says product:something | 09:18 |
| Fitch | oh lol | 09:18 |
| amigo_rich | marie_blubb: 0644 | 09:18 |
| sebsebseb | Fitch: not much point bothering with 9.04 Beta for various reasons | 09:18 |
| dixon_ | I have a wierd problem with my screen. *Sometimes* on keyboard input the screen goes black. It have been working correctly for years. But suddenly this happens. When I boot to windows I have no problem with this... Any ideas? | 09:18 |
| Fitch | Ill bother with it if it gets my wireless working | 09:18 |
| jeffchang | hello,:) | 09:18 |
| nhasian | yazden, like product: PRO/Wireless 4965 or product: RTL8111 | 09:18 |
| glitsj16 | creator-cdsc: gnome-app-install is another option, all of the above are tied in with dpkg, the central un/install system used in many linux distros | 09:18 |
| sebsebseb | Fitch: probably not | 09:19 |
| sebsebseb | Fitch: if it won't work in 8.10 just like that, it probably won't in 9.04 either | 09:19 |
| === Album is now known as Album|Awy | ||
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: ok, there are a lot of packages which are not available in the repositories, so if i download their source code from the net, are there any applications which would give me a GUI to install the software? | 09:19 |
| marie_blubb | amigo_rich but I just changed it to 644. the group shouldnt be able to read and write. they can do that at the moment | 09:19 |
| yazden | whats the command prompt again? | 09:19 |
| nhasian | Fitch, if you have a fast wifi you can download the iso in like 5 mins, burn it in 5 mins, and boot up and test it. worst case scenario you just lost a blankCD and half an hour | 09:19 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: you just compile and run | 09:19 |
| amigo_rich | marie_blubb: what does ls -l show you for the file? | 09:20 |
| Fitch | yeah doing it already worth a shot for sure | 09:20 |
| yazden | the network controller? | 09:20 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: but see if you can find a .deb package, it's usually better | 09:20 |
| nhasian | yazden, yes | 09:20 |
| Fitch | thanks for your help btw | 09:20 |
| nhasian | yazden, also please put my name before each reply to me or i may miss your message. (it auto highlights) | 09:21 |
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: yes i just have to compile and run, but is there any application availabe which would let me just click on a button and do it? for example in windows, you just have to click on the install icon and it does the rest for you | 09:21 |
| yazden | ralink uknown device 0781 sub system ralink uknown device 2790 | 09:21 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: no | 09:21 |
| Fitch | oh while Im here what does the Hardware Drivers applet do? I cant seem to figure out any options for installing drivers, or really doing much with them at all | 09:21 |
| nhasian | yazden, you may have more than one network line. do you have any others? | 09:21 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: on windows you're not compiling from source | 09:21 |
| nhasian | Fitch, its for restricted drivers | 09:22 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: that's what a debian package would be, more or less | 09:22 |
| yazden | pci bbridg? | 09:22 |
| nhasian | Fitch, meaning if nvidia, or broadcom or some company provides proprietary drivers that are not open source | 09:22 |
| shivamib | you install it using dpkg -i package.deb | 09:22 |
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: right, you don't get the source, but then what does the install do in windows? | 09:23 |
| shivamib | installs the binary | 09:23 |
| Fitch | so how do you install drivers manage hardware etc? is there an equivalent to the management applets in windows? disk manager device manager etc? | 09:23 |
| shivamib | and messes with registry | 09:23 |
| yazden | im not to sure what im looking for | 09:23 |
| nhasian | yazden, so you dont flood the channel, why dont you just /msg me the output | 09:24 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: but you dont really need to "install" anything | 09:24 |
| yazden | ok | 09:24 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: usually you put those programs on /var/opt/ | 09:24 |
| Crazylink | does anyone know how to run Power ISO ? | 09:25 |
| nhasian | Crazyguy, you dont need powerISO in linux | 09:25 |
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: i was thinking of a project idea for the summers, and i started thinking about why people in general don't use linux. they don't want to type in commands, so if there is some GUI for that as well, then it would be useful | 09:25 |
| Crazylink | nhasian: what can i use to run FFXI on? | 09:25 |
| nhasian | Crazylink, try gmount-iso | 09:25 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: that's what synaptic is about. but once you leave the repositories, you're on your own | 09:25 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: and really, the console is your friend | 09:26 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: you'll get used to it | 09:26 |
| abchirk | hi, is there a way to install intrepid kernel on Hardy? I only found 2.6.24 as newest kernel. | 09:26 |
| sebsebseb | Crazylink: what do you want to do? burn an ISO? | 09:26 |
| nhasian | ouch yazden got kicked for flooding me | 09:26 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: no not really, and you should just use the kernel that hardy repo has given you | 09:27 |
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: yes, but can something be built which would make it easier for the not-so-familiar-console guy to install applications not availabe in the repositories? | 09:27 |
| Crazylink | sebsebseb: no i want to run final Fantasy 11 ISO files from my comp | 09:27 |
| nhasian | Crazylink, you already installed wine right? | 09:27 |
| sebsebseb | Crazylink: that might not even work in Wine or commercial versons of it | 09:27 |
| Crazylink | yes | 09:27 |
| shivamib | creator-cdsc: yes, you build a deb package for that specific app | 09:27 |
| shivamib | and if it's useful it could be integrated to the repository | 09:28 |
| sebsebseb | Crazylink: and those games are 3D? | 09:28 |
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: oh ok, can you tell me some project idea if you hace a | 09:28 |
| Crazylink | sebsebseb: yes | 09:28 |
| Crazylink | MMORPG | 09:28 |
| creator-cdsc | shivamib: oh ok, can you tell me some project idea that i could pursue? it should be somethign that would make it easier for a normal person to use linux | 09:28 |
| nhasian | Crazylink, http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2739 | 09:29 |
| sebsebseb | Crazylink: ok I don't think your going to gert much luck with those games in Ubuntu or any other Linux distro, at this stage. ,but apparnatlly Codeweavers Games a commercail version of Wine, will soon have proper Directx10 supopurt | 09:29 |
| nhasian | according to winehq FFXI works great in wine | 09:29 |
| Crazylink | thanks i will read this link | 09:29 |
| Fitch | I would imagine FFXI would use DX9 its not that new a game | 09:29 |
| raylu | creator-cdsc: by 'normal person,' you mean windows user | 09:30 |
| creator-cdsc | raylu: yes | 09:30 |
| raylu | creator-cdsc: which translates to someone infected with the notion that the mouse is some sort of universal tool for manipulating the computer | 09:30 |
| creator-cdsc | raylu: precisely | 09:30 |
| nhasian | yazden, hey did you get kicked when you messaged me? | 09:30 |
| raylu | creator-cdsc: if you want windows, use windows. why are you looking to linux for something that duplicates windows? | 09:30 |
| sebsebseb | creator-cdsc: people that aren't that good at computers, can get on rather nicely with Ubuntu, from help with someone that knows :) ,but yeah it can take 3 weeks | 09:31 |
| shivamib | linux is not that hard. the concepts are different but the make a lot of sense | 09:31 |
| shivamib | *they | 09:31 |
| abchirk | sebsebseb hm but my wlan stick is only supported on newer kernels... | 09:31 |
| shivamib | it's a real operating system | 09:31 |
| nhasian | creator-cdsc, usually you can just download a program (with an .deb extention) right click and install. its really easy | 09:31 |
| ActionParsnip | shivamib: depends what you are gauging as hard | 09:32 |
| sebsebseb | shivamib: well by the majority of computer users, so is Windows :D | 09:32 |
| creator-cdsc | raylu: i don't want windows, i am happy with linux. the only reason people use windows is that it is easy to use. but it does cost a lot of money. so if you can get a windows type functionality on linux, it would be good | 09:32 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: well you could get a later kernel in hardy, but it might be a bit complacted to install, and usauly woudn't be recommended | 09:32 |
| ActionParsnip | creator-cdsc: depends on what the system is for | 09:33 |
| nhasian | creator-cdsc, but you should invest some time in learning how to install programs via synaptic package manager. its very powerful. i dont know why we have add/remove program tool. its like synaptic lite | 09:33 |
| raylu | creator-cdsc: no. what you're looking for is http://www.reactos.org/en/index.html | 09:33 |
| ActionParsnip | creator-cdsc: if windows suits our needs better than linux, why change | 09:33 |
| abchirk | hm sebsebseb or should I upgrade to intrepid? Is it possible over synaptic? | 09:33 |
| raylu | nhasian: which in turn is like apt-get/aptitude lite | 09:33 |
| nhasian | abchirk, which os do you have now? | 09:33 |
| abchirk | nhasian hardy | 09:33 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: staying with 8.04 has it's advantages, and upgrading to 8.10 dosan't have that much advantages really | 09:33 |
| abhishekiitd | kushiitd:i will be here monitoring! | 09:34 |
| sebsebseb | nhasian: he is on 8.04, wants a later kernel, so his wireless will apparnatly work | 09:34 |
| abchirk | sebsebseb but my wlan stick. :( | 09:34 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: well that's native sure, what about ndiswrapper? | 09:34 |
| Abracadabra | hello | 09:34 |
| nhasian | abchirk, then yes, you can upgrade to 8.10 or 9.04 when it comes out. go to system/admin/software sources and change the upgrade option | 09:34 |
| sebsebseb | Abracadabra: hi | 09:34 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: you can also get a later kernel in hardy though | 09:34 |
| abchirk | hm sebsebseb sure.. but ndiswrapper... and on my other pc on intrepid its working | 09:35 |
| abhishekiitd | whois kushiitd | 09:35 |
| nhasian | abchirk, go to the updates tab, then change it to say normal releases | 09:35 |
| abchirk | nhasian so only use instead of hardy intrepid there? | 09:35 |
| pretender | Created DVD from AVI with DeVeDe in the repo's running ubuntu 8.10and the DVD has no sound | 09:35 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: well ok upgrade to 8.10. also kind of off topic, but for the optional Ext4 file system, that is an option in 9.04, but had a data loss issue etc. for it's full functioantly peole have to start over, and get rid of Ext3. or do something to Ext3 for limited suppourt | 09:36 |
| nhasian | abchirk, you can upgrade your existing installation by changing the upgrade option in the software sources from LTS to normal releases | 09:36 |

| Aperculum | raylu: what I want is more highlevel | 09:41 |
| raylu | dotch: do you reconnect often? or are you on a stable wireless connection | 09:41 |

| dotch | raylu, im on a laptop so i switch between wired ethernet and wifi a lot and its annoying popping up all the time, the swirling connection thingy is quite enough for me-no need for the huge bubble | 09:42 |
| zagibu | i get a problem after installation, it can't find its disk | 09:42 |
| Aperculum | also, does ubuntu 9.04 fix the ubuntu networkmanager so that it does remember my fixed ip settings | 09:42 |
| happydaisy | thanks | 09:42 |
| Aperculum | instead of always falling back to dhcp on reboot | 09:42 |
| raylu | Aperculum: where did you set those settings? | 09:43 |
| abchirk | ok its upgrading sebsebseb and nhasian :) | 09:43 |
| sebsebseb | Aperculum: probably not and you can find out more in #ubuntu+1 | 09:43 |
| nhasian | abchirk, great. you know its gonna upgrade again in like two weeks right? hehe | 09:43 |
| sebsebseb | nhasian: nah only if he says to intall 9.04. | 09:43 |
| abchirk | nhasian hmmm, I guess I will stay with intrepid. :P | 09:43 |
| raylu | dotch: no easy way comes to mind. we were talking about http://vidner.net/martin/software/cnetworkmanager/ , but it's pretty disappointing | 09:43 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: I think staying with 8.10 untill 9.10 would be a good idea for many people, for various reasons | 09:44 |
| abchirk | :) | 09:44 |
| raylu | dotch: i suspect there's a way to configure it with knotify... if you were using knetworkmanager | 09:44 |
| nhasian | abchirk, i cant wait to upgrade to 9.04 | 09:44 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: only major imporvement in 9.04 is optional Ext4 suppourt. and that's not exactly stable. ,but by 9.10 :d | 09:44 |
| abchirk | nhasian yes.. but thats only my laptop.. on my desktop I will try it. | 09:44 |
| sebsebseb | nhasian: I am using the beta now, I am not exactly impressed | 09:45 |

| dotch | raylu, thank you for your contribution. I'm afraid its gnome for me :) | 09:45 |
| abchirk | maybe the same as with 8.10 :P | 09:45 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: 8.10 was ok | 09:45 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: no KDE 3 in the repo though :( | 09:45 |
| raylu | dotch: you can still use it. i use amarok in gnome | 09:45 |
| abchirk | sebsebseb but when it was released it was very buggy here. | 09:46 |
| nhasian | sebsebseb, its not gonna be a major revolution in a six month development cycle. think of it more like a windows service pack :) | 09:46 |
| Palace_Chan | im able to connect to the internet wirelessly but only local apparently when i use ethernet cable (happens to me both in ubuntu & windows) and started randomly today after my laptop came back from sleep mode, any ideas what it could be ? | 09:46 |
| nhasian | sebastien, newer versions of gnome, xserver, faster boot times, latest kernel ext4 filesystem support, etc. | 09:47 |
| nhasian | woops i meant sebsebseb | 09:47 |
| abchirk | but ext4 isn't stable yet? | 09:47 |

It was easy and all: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba#Graphical%20Configuration But when I want to access to it, it asks for a password (althought the doc said it won't). I've been searching the net for an hour... Can you help me ? | 09:47 |
| sebsebseb | abchirk: there are still issues with Ext4 yes | 09:48 |
| nhasian | abchirk, its been moved from the development branch to the stable branch of the linux kernel | 09:48 |
| choice | hi, i'm editing fstab to mount smb shares on boot, under "server" can i put an IP? | 09:48 |
| Abracadabra | looks like I do have a question in fact :). I can't understand lzm. Can someone shed some light ? | 09:49 |
| nhasian | abchirk, there is an issue about losing data when the power goes out due to the way gnome/kde handles files in the home directory | 09:49 |

| Jimi_Neutral | Hi all | 09:49 |
| nhasian | hello Jimi_Neutral | 09:49 |
| chap | hi I'm tying to install gimp 2.2 on 8.10 besides 2.6. is this possible? | 09:49 |
| abchirk | hehe ok I'll wait with ext4 then... | 09:50 |
| tavi | command to see the name of the modem? | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: to have 2 versions of gimp do you mean? | 09:50 |
| Jimi_Neutral | nhasian: I finally got 8.10 fully installed and am exploring the new and exciting world of lINUX :) | 09:50 |
| popey | sebsebseb: what issues? | 09:50 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, exactlly | 09:51 |
| UbuntuUser | hi all | 09:51 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Is there a general chat room? | 09:51 |
| nhasian | Jimi_Neutral, congrats! it is fun and exciting to learn a new OS. try to be patient and not get frustrated, we will be happy to help | 09:51 |
| dotch | raylu, true that! I shall think about it and the download is not too hefty. I appreciate your input | 09:51 |
| popey | Jimi_Neutral: #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 09:51 |
| Jimi_Neutral | nhasian, Ty :) | 09:51 |
| UbuntuUser | could you help me resolve my memory stick problem? | 09:51 |
| Jimi_Neutral | popey, ty :) | 09:51 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: hmm, not sure about that, you could use a chroot to have the other version on the chroot. that could work | 09:51 |
| fungin | Hi. I have written a script http://paste.ubuntu.com/143353/ that should update local copy of svn repo and it does when launched manually from shell, yet it won't work while triggered by cron. It seems that performing svn update >> file.log stucks/is not performed/i-don't-know-what but the result file is empty (filled with \n characters, one per each launch) and no update is performed. Anyone can help how to correct that script so that it would work. Restarti | 09:51 |
| sebsebseb | popey: lol at asking me here, anyway apparantly it maybe isn't quite the case anymore according to #ubuntu+1 | 09:52 |
| sebsebseb | popey: apparnatlly the major dataloss issue got fixed, but maybe not in the best way | 09:52 |
| nhasian | sebsebseb, but it wont be merged into the kernel till 2.6.30 right? | 09:52 |
| UbuntuUser | my card reader in my notebook can`t detect my memory stick card in lastest ubuntu relase | 09:52 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, I got the hint to install 2.2 from etch from source with checkinstall. but configure failed | 09:53 |
| sebsebseb | nhasian: nah therre will be optional supourt in 9.04 find out mroe in #ubuntu+1 | 09:53 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: etch is debian, this is #ubuntu | 09:53 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, I know, but this could be my error | 09:54 |
| pyxi | good day, i am having trouble connecting redhat to tiscali ADSL. | 09:54 |
| pyxi | I have put the modem in to bridge mode and have tried pppoe but i | 09:54 |
| pyxi | think the connection needs to be pppoa, i have tried the module | 09:54 |
| pyxi | but no success, has anybody tried this before (and yes i should | 09:54 |
| pyxi | upgrade but this is for something that i need the old redhat for) | 09:54 |
| FloodBot1 | pyxi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:54 |
| popey | pyxi: this isnt a Red Hat support channel :) | 09:55 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: i'd say it was, debian debs are compiled for debian, ubuntu debs are compiled for ubuntu. do not mix them or you WILL get trouble with yuor system | 09:55 |
| raylu | chap, ActionParsnip: chroot is overkill. you can compile it from source without 'install'ing it and just run it from your home directory | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | raylu: thats another option too | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | raylu: always more than 1 way to skin a cat | 09:56 |
| chap | raylu, so where do I get a gimp 2.2 for ubuntu? | 09:57 |
| funginpl | sorry, did anyone answer my question, my connection broke down | 09:57 |
| raylu | chap: the source from here: http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ | 09:58 |
| Palace_Chan | if my ethernet stopped providing me with more than a local connection but my wireless still works (in both windows and ubuntu) and my roomates are not facing the same issue, should i guess some sort of hardware failure is most likely ? | 09:58 |
| abhishekiitd | will i be able to upgrade to 9.04 final from 9.04 beta?without actually downloading 9.04? | 09:58 |

Anyways what I have been doing in windows is using rev tuner to underclock my video card by about 5%... Since then I have had windows running almost 30 days now not one crash.. Before I was crashing 5-10 times a day. | 10:00 |

| zagibu | spaceboy: got an entry in /etc/hosts? | 10:01 |
| popey | pyxi: which specific modem | 10:01 |
| amigo_rich | fungin: Is the svn command in your path for the crontab? | 10:02 |
| spaceboy | zagibu: yes | 10:02 |
| zagibu | like what? | 10:02 |
| spaceboy | zagibu: this is from multiple boxes | 10:02 |
| zagibu | well, it sounds like a dns problem, then | 10:03 |
| spaceboy | zagibu: i guess my ? is why would thet change thier A record | 10:03 |
| pyxi_ | ubottu: running it in console based and ADSL | 10:03 |

| g33k_gir1 | i can't get my windows share to be writeable... any ideas? | 10:04 |
| g33k_gir1 | !windows share | 10:04 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about windows share | 10:04 |
| g33k_gir1 | !samba | 10:04 |
| ubottu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 10:04 |
| zagibu | spaceboy: i have no idea, i'm not exactly savvy when it comes to dns | 10:04 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: how did you share it? | 10:04 |
| spaceboy | zagibu: cool | 10:05 |
| g33k_gir1 | @ziroday erm -- I edited the samba conf file | 10:05 |
| ekenix | when i boot up, i got this msg 'unable to enumerate USB device on port 1'. did anyone encounter the same situation? | 10:05 |
| zamba | i have made a mistake in the /etc/sudoers file.. so when i now try to issue 'sudo su' i'm given an error.. how can i fix this? | 10:05 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: can you pastebin that please? | 10:05 |
| ekenix | i had my ubuntu installed in my usb disk | 10:05 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, same error here on configure | 10:06 |
| zagibu | zamba: you can always boot from a live cd, mount your disk and edit the file there | 10:06 |
| Ubersoldat | zamba: or reboot on level 1 | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: do you have the -dev dependancies? | 10:06 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: http://paste.ubuntu.com/143362/ | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: and have you install build-essential | 10:06 |
| ActionParsnip | hi g33k_gir1 | 10:06 |
| g33k_gir1 | ActionParsnip: hey :D | 10:06 |
| zagibu | if you can't boot from a live cd, you can try to hit esc at grub menu, hit e to edit boot entry and change init=bla to init=/bin/bash, then hit enter and b to boot into a shell | 10:07 |
| zamba | zagibu: aki | 10:07 |
| zamba | Ubersoldat: 'telinit 1'? | 10:07 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: try writeable = yes | 10:07 |
| Ubersoldat | yes | 10:07 |
| zamba | Ubersoldat: won't that prompt for a password? | 10:07 |
| zamba | Ubersoldat: the root password hasn't been set, since this is ubuntu :p | 10:08 |
| Ubersoldat | wait, not telinit 1, if you start the server on init 1 it wont ask for a password | 10:08 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, dont know what you mean for deps. here is the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/143363/ | 10:08 |
| zamba | Ubersoldat: i have to do this in grub? | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: well clearly you need the glib development package | 10:08 |
| Taus | g33k_gir1, also make sure that the windows share actually has ticked "users can change files in this folder" option in the settings pane | 10:09 |
| Ubersoldat | yes | 10:09 |
| Ghabit | Hello. Is it ok to try ext4 or reiser4 fs? Or they are not really ready? | 10:09 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: just like firefox depends on xul-runner, you need the development packages for the source code for all the things needed to compile the app | 10:09 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: I did it just like this, which works perfectly (although its a different drive): http://paste.ubuntu.com/143366/ | 10:09 |
| g33k_gir1 | Taus: I'm working from the command line only? | 10:09 |
| Ubersoldat | To temporarily boot on runlevel 1, append 1 as kernel parameter by editing grub menu before you execute a boot target. | 10:09 |
| zamba | Ubersoldat: ok | 10:09 |
| asfjio | hello, how can i tell apt-get to install older version of program? | 10:10 |
| ziroday | Ghabit: they are both not used by default, if its system critical then don't trust 'em | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: what is the output of: dpkg -l | grep libglib | 10:10 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, yes. what are their names, so I can install them throug apt-get? | 10:10 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: heh, this is why I hate samba. NFS is soo much easier | 10:10 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: yes but you need to know what to get with websearching | 10:11 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: lol, well, I'm willing to do it any way. its the office server, running ubuntu server... | 10:11 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: I don't suppose you have "security = user" set in your samba config? | 10:11 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: sharing to just unix computers? Or are windows computers involved too? | 10:11 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, the output is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/143368/ | 10:12 |
| g33k_gir1 | Rytmis: its commented out... | 10:12 |
| abhishekiitd | kushiitd:welcome | 10:12 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: try replacing that with "security = share" | 10:12 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: apparenlty, user is the default value. | 10:12 |
| pyxi_ | g33k_gir1: if you put the security to share ? | 10:12 |
| Rytmis | apparently, too | 10:12 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: unix, serving our internet, sharing to 1 ubuntu machine and 5 windoze | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: ok well you are compiling and its looking for glib, you have libglib2.0 installed so you need: sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev | 10:13 |
| pyxi_ | in the new config there was something else you need to change to before windows could see the share | 10:13 |
| g33k_gir1 | Rytmis: but still leave it commented? | 10:13 |
| === happydaisy is now known as happy | ||
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: wait, samba over the internet? | 10:13 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: and you will need this for ALL the things it moans about until you satisfy it | 10:13 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: no, I mean replace the commented-out line with an uncommented "security = share" | 10:13 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: I suspect changing comments alone would do little to help. :) | 10:14 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: no, samba over the internal network | 10:14 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: right, well I have no idea why the first share works and the second doesn't. Sorry. | 10:14 |
| g33k_gir1 | :) | 10:14 |
| xieUbt | l can not start my netbeans,who have met this problem? | 10:15 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: yes, neither did my "gentoo expert" I have on hand | 10:15 |
| ziroday | xieUbt: errors? | 10:15 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: sounds like a fun workplace | 10:15 |
| Rytmis | Samba has a lot of moving parts | 10:15 |
| kushiitd | hi i am new here.I want help to make my windows default operating system.I edited menu.lst file and now when i choose windows i get error 12 invalid device requested.Please provide a solution for this | 10:15 |
| ziroday | kushiitd: you broke it | 10:16 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, can you help me about that, I am new to this. | 10:16 |
| ziroday | kushiitd: okay, you can either a) Recreate your grub or b) try to repair it from within grub | 10:16 |
| xieUbt | who can help my netbeans problem? | 10:16 |
| magnetron | kushiitd→ please restore the original menu.lst, then give it to us | 10:16 |
| Jimi_Neutral | Im having major trouble with Clonezilla still. As far as I can tell everything was set up right but when I start the process on the laptop that the image is to be taken from I get a fatal error stop. 'Failed to mount root file system!!' anyone come across this before | 10:17 |
| Rytmis | xieUbt: nobody if you won't tell us what the errror is. | 10:17 |
| ziroday | magnetron: I don't think he can even boot into his machine | 10:17 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: no. its not. its soul destroying. because i "know a bit about computers", I provide low level tech support. I think i might scream the next time someone asks me to show them, once again, how to burn a C | 10:17 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: you need to attempt the ./configure again and see what is missing, then websearch the error you get to see what -dev you need | 10:17 |
| g33k_gir1 | ziroday: CD, that is | 10:17 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: gack! | 10:17 |
| ziroday | g33k_gir1: heh, probably #ubuntu-offtopic is the best place to whine about it :) | 10:17 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: I'm a software developer, been doing this for about eight years now, and whenever I tell that to a person I've never met, they assume I find it interesting to fix their borked, ancient Windows machine :P | 10:18 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: this is why i suggested the chroot, as you can use packages but compile will allow you to have one version of gimp installed with package and one sat compiled but not installed to /etc and the like | 10:18 |
| pyxi_ | g33k_gir1: whats the permissions on the shared folder (the one that does not want to be shared) | 10:18 |
| xieUbt | the netbeans just doesn't show and l got a exception BufferUnderflowException | 10:18 |
| amigo_rich | kushiitd: What did you change in menu.lst? Could you post the file someplace? | 10:18 |
| Ubersoldat | xieUbt: are you using sun's jvm? | 10:19 |
| xieUbt | l got the exception when l run netbeans --help in terminal | 10:19 |
| xieUbt | yes.you are right | 10:19 |
| xieUbt | but my environment is correct | 10:20 |
| Fitch | nhasian: Well I upgraded to 9.04 and the option to view wireless networks is still greyed out | 10:20 |
| xieUbt | Ubersoldat:you think l should change another jvm? | 10:20 |
| kushiitd | http://www.mibbit.com/up/PoQNCysv.menu file kushiitd | 10:21 |
| xieUbt | Ubersoldat:use openjdk? | 10:21 |
| Ubersoldat | no, I think you should use sun's jvm | 10:21 |
| g33k_gir1 | pyxi_: 0755 | 10:21 |
| abhishekiitd | kushiitd: please paste the file at nopaste.org | 10:21 |
| Ubersoldat | if you're, then it's something else | 10:21 |
| g33k_gir1 | Rytmis: changing security to shared gives me "unable to retrieve mount share from server" or something liek that | 10:22 |
| Ubersoldat | anyway, I'll try to download and reinstall netbeans since the error it's kind of weird | 10:22 |
| nhasian | Fitch, there are no restricted drivers available for you? | 10:22 |
| kushiitd | here is the file http://www.nopaste.org/p/aNT51ACeY | 10:23 |
| Fitch | whoa hey there is now | 10:23 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: OK, well, it was guesswork anyway. Be a lot easier if I actually had an Ubuntu machine here to try things with. :) | 10:23 |
| Rytmis | g33k_gir1: sorry :) | 10:23 |
| Ghabit_ | Is there some way to do sort of a network installing without CD-ROM? | 10:23 |
| ziroday | Ghabit_: yep! | 10:23 |
| ziroday | !install | Ghabit_ one of these links should have it | 10:24 |

| Ghabit_ | ziroday: Thanks a lot! X) | 10:25 |
| Rytmis | erwin_: I've seen that issue, something to do with window manager settings. Can't recall the specifics, though. :( | 10:25 |

| ziroday | |_ocke: what drivers do you have installed currently and where has it failed at? | 10:30 |
| chap | ActionParsnip, do I have to add supprt for every fileformat? | 10:30 |
| Rytmis | erwin_: just checking, but are you sure you're running metacity, and not, say, compiz? | 10:30 |
| kushiitd | magnetron: ok thanks let me try it. | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: ive never compiled gimp, nor do i use it so I couldnt comment | 10:31 |
| ActionParsnip | chap: you could ask in #gimp maybe | 10:31 |
| erwin_ | Rytmis: Just metacity is running, yeah. | 10:32 |
| |_ocke | currently i used envyng to install the 96 drivers and its the same with the 179 or whatever, i have compiz, but when i rotate the cube i just see the outline and its all white with the apps projected off the planes but also all white | 10:32 |

| ziroday | |_ocke: which version of the drivers are you using? | 10:33 |
| |_ocke | cause i had ati x1300 and compiz fusion worked perfect | 10:33 |
| thefeds | GPL license requirement of Linux make it illegal for graphic card manufacturers, printer manufacturers, sound card manufacturers, and various other device manufacturers to develop and distribute closed source binary drivers. | 10:33 |
| |_ocke | but nothing else | 10:33 |

| |_ocke | i wanted nvidia for that and everything else | 10:33 |
| |_ocke | but i nstal it and i dont have any real hardware accel now lol | 10:33 |

| thefeds | damn it! | 10:34 |
| |_ocke | an\d its a really big bad card | 10:34 |

| thefeds | did you read what I posted | 10:34 |
| |_ocke | takes 2 ide power connectors into one 6 pin connector for power on the vidcard | 10:34 |
| thefeds | scroll up | 10:34 |
| ziroday | |_ocke: this isn't a soapbox. We are trying to help you. What drivers do you have installed currently? | 10:34 |
| clearscreen | thefeds: that's incorrect | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | thefeds: why would that make it illegal? | 10:35 |
| thefeds | I was thinking of going a different distro because ubuntu supplied religious software | 10:35 |
| thefeds | I don't agree with it | 10:35 |
| clearscreen | thefeds: GPL license only prohibits the development of closed-source software when GPL-licensed source is being used, which is clearly not the case | 10:35 |
| rhalff | thefeds: so go.. :p | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | thefeds: nvidia have been making closed binary drivers for years and have had no action taken on them | 10:36 |
| clearscreen | ActionParsnip: because it's not illegal | 10:36 |
| ActionParsnip | thefeds: then dont install the religious software, simple (surely) | 10:36 |

| rhalff | thefeds: so create your own distro | 10:37 |
| thefeds | how? | 10:37 |
| clearscreen | ActionParsnip: not only that but he's factually wrong too... it is not illegal to develop closed source drivers for an open-source operating system.. it's just not true | 10:37 |
| bazhang | !ot > thefeds | 10:37 |
| ubottu | thefeds, please see my private message | 10:37 |
| ActionParsnip | if I use partimage to create a backup of a partition, do I need to create the destination partition the image is going to be used to the same size as the source? | 10:38 |
| ActionParsnip | clearscreen: true | 10:38 |

| no-go | mib ?? | 10:57 |

| no-go | mib that is a problem I have not encountered yet, maybe Action Parship can help here | 10:58 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | What? what is that | 10:58 |
| no-go | someone in the chat here | 10:58 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | Oh | 10:59 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | Well basicly I need to find a way to edit the sudoers file | 10:59 |
| no-go | besides he did if I read correctly | 10:59 |
| no-go | he said !adduser | | 10:59 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | what? | 10:59 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: please direct you text, see how your name highlights when i address you. thats not an accident | 11:00 |
| no-go | use adduser option | 11:00 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: you need to read the factoid and how to add the user to the admin group, this will allow them to use *sudo | 11:00 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | !adduser | 11:00 |
| ubottu | To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo | 11:00 |

| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: again, target yor speech | 11:01 |
| no-go | mib then let the admin user do this | 11:01 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: you could boot to recovery root console and edit the users there | 11:01 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, what are you trynt to install jaunty on? | 11:02 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | no-go i AM the admin user, i just naffd the admin user to heck | 11:02 |
| Ghabit | PrebenR: Sorry? | 11:02 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, I mean why do you do it that way? | 11:02 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: fine, boot to recovery root console, promote a new user to be able to use sudo then you can resolve the issue | 11:02 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, if it is a netbook (like the asus eee) then it is easier to make a usb stick to install | 11:03 |
| Ghabit | PrebenR: Because of I have very expensive internet traffic and cannot download live cd or alternate cd here. But I have mirror for rree. | 11:03 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | How do I do that ActionParsnip? | 11:03 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, ah | 11:03 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: reboot, press esc LOADS and then select recovery mode for your kernel, you will see the boot messages then a menu, choose root console and you will then be dumped to a root prompt, you can then promote a user there | 11:04 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, so you want to install from the mirror? Not sure I understand how you avoid the internet traffic | 11:04 |
| Jordan_U | Ghabit, Have you considered shipit? | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: reboot to logon screen, log on as the NEW user then yu will be able to sudo and fix the OLD user | 11:04 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | actionparsnip so when I get to that console, what is the command for promting user/ | 11:04 |
| Ghabit | PrebenR: I have free access to the mirror here. | 11:04 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: read the factoid that ubottu gave you | 11:05 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | !adduser | 11:05 |
| ubottu | To add new users to your Ubuntu system, follow the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddUsersHowto - For administrative privileges, users need to be made members of the group "admin" - See !sudo | 11:05 |
| Ghabit | Jordan_U: Just looking for network installation X) | 11:05 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, so all traffic to the mirror is not charged? | 11:05 |
| Jordan_U | !minimal | Ghabit | 11:05 |
| ubottu | Ghabit: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 11:05 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, could you then download an image to the mirror ? | 11:05 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | thanks actionparsnip | 11:06 |
| ActionParsnip | mib_2ozkgxvl: np man | 11:06 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | be | 11:06 |
| mib_2ozkgxvl | bye | 11:06 |
| PrebenR | Ghabit, as ubottu says MinimalCD is probably what you want. If you want Jaunty then you do an upgrade after installing 8.10 | 11:06 |
| Jordan_U | Ghabit, You can get a minimal CD for jaunty too, though for any jaunty talk please use #ubuntu+1 | 11:07 |
| Ghabit | PrebenR, Jordan_U, thanks a lot for info and help! | 11:08 |

| scibotic | crdlb, head #0: 1280x1024 @ 0,0 | 11:25 |
| ActionParsnip | Jimi_Neutral: ubuntu cd or ultimatebootcd will help | 11:25 |
| Saturn2888 | Jimi_Neutral: use GParted or a Linux LiveCD | 11:25 |
| Jimi_Neutral | ty both | 11:25 |
| s3r3n1t7 | So i'm trying to run a 64bit VM on my 32bit host with a 64bit CPU. According to what i've read here ( http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08%2F12%2F22%2F167238 ) I should be able to do this. Virtualbox OSE is telling me I can't. Am i missing a vital part? | 11:26 |
| mason_ | 64bit should definitely be able to run a 32bit Virtualbox | 11:26 |
| mason_ | What exactly is Virtualbox saying? | 11:27 |
| s3r3n1t7 | mason_, read again please. My host is 32bit, my guest is 64bit. | 11:27 |
| Jimi_Neutral | and that will do an NTFS format so i can put the image of xp back on? | 11:27 |
| dayo | saerg: so ng *is* the upgrade? | 11:27 |
| mason_ | Ah | 11:27 |
| mason_ | You can't then | 11:27 |
| s3r3n1t7 | mason_, read the link please. | 11:27 |
| Saturn2888 | Any way to mount a drive and have it mount at boot from then on? | 11:28 |
| buzzinh | install webmin! do it from there | 11:28 |
| s3r3n1t7 | !webmin | buzzinh | 11:28 |
| ubottu | buzzinh: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 11:28 |
| Saturn2888 | buzzinh: I use eBox | 11:28 |
| ActionParsnip | !webmin | 11:28 |
| saerg | dayo: ng == next generation | 11:28 |
| erUSUL | s3r3n1t7: which version of VBOX are you running? | 11:28 |
| Saturn2888 | lol s3r3n1t7 | 11:28 |
| dayo | saerg: upgrade. right? come on. put me out of my misery. lol | 11:28 |
| s3r3n1t7 | erUSUL, 2.1.4 | 11:28 |
| scibotic | crdlb, All I did was : xrandr --output LVDS --off --output VGA --mode 1280x1024 | 11:29 |
| mason_ | S3r3nlt7, apparently you still need 64-bit hardware | 11:29 |
| c0l2e | can I install novell iManager in ubuntu? | 11:29 |
| erUSUL | s3r3n1t7: if you are sure your CPU is 64 bit ask in #vbox | 11:29 |
| s3r3n1t7 | mason_, please read the question again, twice if you don't mind. As said, my CPU is 64bit capable, my host is 32bit, my VM is 64bit. It should work, however VBox will not start it up. | 11:30 |
| s3r3n1t7 | mason_, and don't PM please. | 11:30 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: maybe | 11:30 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: what type of program is it? | 11:30 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: and it does not have a Linux version? | 11:30 |
| c0l2e | It's a eDirectory Manager | 11:30 |
| mason_ | Eh, whatever then | 11:30 |
| s3r3n1t7 | erUSUL, hmm i guess i don't have that many options other then that. I'll do that, thanks for your time. | 11:30 |
| c0l2e | eDirectory is novell's LDAP | 11:30 |
| buzzinh | lol i got web min on my vm machines and it works fine!? | 11:31 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: what's a LDAP? | 11:31 |
| c0l2e | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LDAP | 11:31 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: if there's a Linux version you can install it, if not well it dosan't sound like the kind of app people would run under Wine | 11:31 |
| s3r3n1t7 | buzzinh, it _can_ cause unexpected issues, i've seen them happen more then once. You might be the lucky guy who has no problems. | 11:31 |
| buzzinh | saturn2888 is ebox easy to install??? | 11:32 |
| erUSUL | !ebox | 11:32 |
| ubottu | ebox is a web-based GUI interface for administering a server. It is designed to work with Ubuntu/Debian style configuration management. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/eBox | 11:32 |
| c0l2e | well it's sure a linux app but for suse and opensuse in support description | 11:32 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: ok is there a .tar.gz? | 11:32 |
| Saturn2888 | buzzinh: Yeah. The forums are very helpful, but eBox has a different application | 11:32 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: and I guess there is no deb | 11:32 |
| s3r3n1t7 | c0l2e, if you can find a deb for the package, just grab it from them. Otherwise you might be very lucky and grab the .rpm and convert it, but it won't be the same and might break. Best bet probably is call your supplier and ask for it. | 11:33 |
| c0l2e | sebsebseb: yeah it's an rpm and can easily alienate it | 11:33 |
| Saturn2888 | Webmin is GUI in brower. eBox is server/router/fileserver/webserver in browser | 11:33 |
| buzzinh | lol well i only use webmin to ease apache horrors | 11:33 |
| buzzinh | ok | 11:33 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: alien isn't really recommended | 11:33 |
| Saturn2888 | buzzinh: I used that in Gentoo, but eBox is better for what I was using | 11:33 |
| sebsebseb | !alien | 11:33 |
| ubottu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 11:33 |
| buzzinh | ok | 11:33 |
| === tiagofalcao[AWAY is now known as tiagofalcao | ||
| buzzinh | will ebox manage apache? | 11:33 |
| c0l2e | well my problem is that I've tested it few times before and I failed.. maybe there's a better way to make it work in ubuntu | 11:33 |
| marie_blubb | samba-question. I entered # none in the host allow line of SWAT, now I cannot enter SWAt (god I'm stupid) I cannot go straight into the smf.conf as if I try to cange something I dont have the rights for it, and I cannot change the rights in Konquerer. I guess I have to deinstall samba and install it again, right? | 11:33 |
| Saturn2888 | buzzinh: yep | 11:34 |
| sebsebseb | buzzinh: yeah is there a .tar.gz or something like that for it? | 11:34 |
| Saturn2888 | buzzinh: what DO you need? | 11:34 |
| saerg | dayo: upgrade implies some kind of compatiblity. it don't know if that's true. let's say successor | 11:34 |
| c0l2e | well iManager is free when your using their eDirectory | 11:34 |
| buzzinh | want it for managing apache / etc we b service ftp etc | 11:34 |
| c0l2e | but as I've said.. not tested in ubuntu nor any debian based distro | 11:34 |
| dayo | saerg: ok thanks | 11:34 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: right well, is there only a RPM for it? or is there like .tar.gz as well? | 11:35 |
| c0l2e | it's rpm | 11:35 |
| crdlb | scibotic: hmm, it seems ok :/ | 11:35 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: I think there is some way to convert a RPM to Deb without using Alien. well if I remember correctly Alien only runs RPM's on Ubuntu anyway | 11:36 |
| s3r3n1t7 | c0l2e, you're trying to make a novell app work on ubuntu right? | 11:36 |
| c0l2e | well gotta check chatroom again if there's some story that they installed is successfully in ubuntu | 11:36 |
| c0l2e | yeah | 11:36 |
| crdlb | scibotic: you're using xfce, right? I guess this is a bug in xfwm4 | 11:36 |
| Saturn2888 | ok bye | 11:36 |
| scibotic | crdlb, I'll look into it. | 11:36 |
| c0l2e | well that's my problem... coz I wish to work with ubuntu.. but tied up to that iManager that's why still using suse/opensuse for that app.. | 11:36 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: if you got enough RAM, you could always Virtualmachine a RPM based distro, but for that app hummmm | 11:36 |
| s3r3n1t7 | c0l2e, don't bother, it'll break. there's too many issues with that stuff to get it working, licensing networking configurations dependencies | 11:37 |
| c0l2e | s3r3n1t7: yeah.. that's what I've encountered | 11:37 |
| buzzinh | well thanks for your help guys! | 11:37 |
| buzzinh | ill check out ebox | 11:37 |
| sebsebseb | c0l2e: opensuse/suse in a vm for the app? | 11:37 |
| s3r3n1t7 | c0l2e, best bet is to either contact your supplier for a .deb or source, or as sebsebseb suggested run it in a VM (which is what we do here at my place) | 11:37 |
| c0l2e | thanks guys.. as they said.. if it ain't work... it ain't work | 11:37 |
| c0l2e | yeah problem in VM is that the iManager itself need 512 ram... | 11:38 |
| c0l2e | my laptop runs with 2GB total ram only | 11:38 |
| sebsebseb | you will be fine | 11:38 |
| sebsebseb | to do it in a vm | 11:38 |
| s3r3n1t7 | c0l2e, Vbox runs it rather smoothly, you'll be fine. | 11:38 |
| sebsebseb | vm meory isn't quite like psyical anyway | 11:38 |
| sebsebseb | memory | 11:39 |
| c0l2e | hmm thanks then | 11:39 |
| s3r3n1t7 | c0l2e, best of luck. Gotta run | 11:39 |

| antiPoP | so, where are the 40GB difference?? | 11:40 |
| sebsebseb | antiPoP: hummmmm not sure, but you can always use pydf to find out about your partitiosn in terminal, or use a graphical program such as gparted | 11:40 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: K3B is nice, but that needs KDE stuff on there, if it's not already | 11:41 |
| erwin_ | antiPoP: There's a certain percentage of the disk reserved for root | 11:41 |
| sebsebseb | !burner | Jimi_Neutral | 11:41 |

| erwin_ | antiPoP: The default is 5%. see man tune2fs. | 11:42 |
| antiPoP | ok | 11:42 |

| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: yep I triggered the bot | 11:45 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: heh nevermind | 11:45 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: by the way Ubuntu already has a resoanble burner built in | 11:45 |
| antipop2 | -m reserved-blocks-percentage | 11:45 |
| Jimi_Neutral | sebsebseb: so which one works well with ubuntu, i d ont mind what it looks like or anything just so long as it works...and i dont have any kde stuff on here i removed it after installing it | 11:46 |
| Jimi_Neutral | sebsebseb: ah whats it called | 11:46 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: the default Brasero Disk Burner should do the trick. have you looked in the applications menu, at what you got installed? | 11:46 |
| Jimi_Neutral | sebsebseb: just looking now, my apologies | 11:47 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: nevermind | 11:47 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: and some of the KDE apps are pretty nice, and so worth having in Ubuntu/Gnome | 11:47 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: ,but you don't need the whole of Kubuntu installed for them | 11:47 |
| Jimi_Neutral | sebsebseb: well i installed kde desktop last night but then uninstalled it....i have ly just gotted used to the new ubuntu desktop, i dont need anything else compliating this at the moment! ;) | 11:48 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: you did a puregnome remove? of Kubuntu | 11:49 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: if not you got KDE stuff left on there | 11:49 |
| sebsebseb | !puregnome | 11:49 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE packages, type « sudo apt-get remove kdelibs4c2 ; sudo apt-get remove kdelibs5 ; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » | 11:49 |
| Jimi_Neutral | i just follwed an online thing and did this line sudo apt-get purge kdelibs5 | 11:50 |
| Jimi_Neutral | and yeah i have still seen some things left on there | 11:50 |
| sebsebseb | Jimi_Neutral: well then the command the bot gave | 11:50 |

| dust_t | Hi i want to install ubuntu 8.04 on a server running intel xeon processor. I want the 64 bit version from here http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt Which torrent should I download ? | 13:41 |
| grawity | dust_t: I guess server-amd64? | 13:43 |
| amigo_rich | Oli``: lsmod will show you a list of modules being used by the kernel | 13:43 |
| dust_t | grawity, ok cool. I got confused thinking its only for AMD | 13:43 |
| Oli`` | amigo_rich: cheers | 13:43 |
| grawity | dust_t: from what I know, amd64 == x86_64 (I might be wrong though...) | 13:44 |
| oCean_ | dust_t: grawity that is correct | 13:44 |
| dust_t | grawity, the download page doesn't say anything. | 13:44 |
| benchew | if i want to search certain content, how do i type in terminal(if i already inside the directory that i want to search)? thanks | 13:44 |
| grawity | dust_t: What page, and what shoud it say? | 13:44 |
| dust_t | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt | 13:45 |
| dust_t | ok ok found this page http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ which clearly mentions EM64T Xeon | 13:45 |
| amigo_rich | xdriinfo might work too. | 13:45 |
| n8tuser | benchew-> look into using grep | 13:45 |
| grawity | dust_t: Anyway, http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04.2/ubuntu-8.04.2-server-amd64.iso.torrent is probably the one you want. | 13:46 |
| grawity | benchew: maybe: grep -ir "text" * | 13:47 |
| oCean_ | dust_t: it's just a name. The x86-64 specification was designed by amd. It has been renamed amd64 | 13:47 |

| dust_t | thankyou oCean_ grawity | 13:47 |
| oCean_ | benchew: generally, "grep <string> <file>" will search for string in file. (And output if found) | 13:47 |
| ubuntu | hello | 13:48 |
| * grawity looks at ubuntu | 13:48 | |
| sebsebseb | ubuntu: hello what would you like help with? | 13:48 |
| oCean_ | benchew: there are some more options to grep you might need. Like -R for recursive (searches subdirectories also) and -i (for case insensitive grep) | 13:48 |

| sebsebseb | sirderigo: afternoon here | 13:49 |
| === ubuntu is now known as EagleSn | ||
| sebsebseb | ubuntulog: Ext4 is in 9.04 not 8.10 | 13:50 |
| benchew | oCean_, grep -R " content " ? | 13:50 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntu: see above | 13:50 |
| sirderigo | sebsebseb, oops here is 7:50 AM | 13:50 |
| grawity | benchew: grep -R -i "content" * | 13:50 |
| sebsebseb | sirderigo: 2:50pm here | 13:50 |
| sirderigo | you are from somewhere in europe right? | 13:50 |
| sebsebseb | sirderigo: UK | 13:51 |
| sebsebseb | ubuntu: I think you want #ubuntu+1 | 13:51 |
| oCean_ | benchew: no: "grep -i -R benchew *.txt" will recursively search for the string (case insensitive) benchew in every *.txt file | 13:51 |
| erUSUL | EagleSn: no if you reformat the fiels are lost. you can mount an ext3 partition as ext4 without reformatting it thought or so i heard | 13:51 |
| ephoenix | Is there anyone having problem with audio from the browsers. And the browsers freezes up once video comes up sometimes. | 13:52 |
| fudanchii | @erUSUL: yeah, but a lot of ext4 feature wont be there, so it's practically useless | 13:52 |
| sebsebseb | ephoenix: sure, Flash in Firefox, can have such issues | 13:52 |
| erUSUL | fudanchii: i know. but EagleSn is more worried about his files that the fs speed :P | 13:53 |
| benchew | oCean_, why does it so long? i still haven't got the result | 13:54 |
| EagleSn | yes, I forgot copy an important file before format >D | 13:54 |
| oCean_ | benchew: I don't know in how many files you are searching, nor how large the files are | 13:54 |
| ephoenix | sebsebseb: This problem happen after I install Kubuntu 9.04 beta | 13:54 |
| oCean_ | benchew: besides that, if you don't have the right syntax, it might sit there all day | 13:54 |
| EagleSn | I think there are special programs that recovery files from old filesystems, I ised tham years ago for FAT32 and NTFS | 13:54 |

| benchew | grawity, i found it. thank you and oCean as well | 13:58 |
| ynk | grep only searches in the current dir, right? | 13:58 |
| EagleSn | I am already playing with testdisk, is there a better application that you know_ | 13:58 |
| grawity | ynk: Unless you use -R | 13:58 |

| mafsi | kreouzis: weechat :) | 14:07 |
| sebsebseb | !best | kreouziz | 14:07 |
| ubottu | kreouziz: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 14:07 |
| randum_user | kreouzis: irssi is the best client. | 14:07 |

| mafsi | randum_user: weechat :) | 14:08 |

| grawity | VibeFm: What's your problem? | 14:11 |
| SSL9 | The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured. | 14:11 |
| SSL9 | You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu. | 14:11 |

| Foor | :( i hate just hitting a channel and askign a question does anyone have any idea on my HDMI problem | 15:34 |
| shawn_ | BoltClock: haha, well you could put in 4 GB but you won't technically be able to use all of it | 15:34 |
| keystr0k | in Ubuntu, I can run wget just fine to pull from an FTP location. On my centos server, wget with the same parameters returns a "No such file" error (even though I am looking for a directory. any ideas? | 15:34 |
| hooloovoo | Yo, i'm getting some kernel crashes when using the 2.6.28-3-rt kernel and ubuntu 9.04 | 15:34 |
| hooloovoo | Anyone know what could be the cause? | 15:34 |
| grawity | BoltClock:I believe 32-bit OSes can use more than 4 GB of RAM - it's just that a _single_program_ won't get more than 4 GB. | 15:34 |
| eternal | hi i have been tryin to setup irc for a hour now and it isn't showing to anyone outside my network netstat shows "0 0.0.0.0:6667" | 15:34 |
| shawn_ | grawity: no, the way 32 bit processors is set up, their limit is 3.5 GB | 15:34 |
| shawn_ | grawity: they don't know what to do with more | 15:35 |
| grawity | shawn_: Ever heard of PAE? | 15:35 |
| Ubersoldat | thebaypp: so... you've got pretty good examples in the sudoers file | 15:35 |
| SSL9 | psicobra | 15:35 |
| thebaypp | Ubersoldat: www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL - however this gives the user sudo access what all scripts | 15:35 |
| aloneinthedark | do they know any operating system linux without graphic interface? | 15:35 |
| BoltClock | shawn_: 32-bit processor? mine's intel c2d, which from what i heard is 64-bit, is it still up to the OS? | 15:35 |
| psicobra | yes SSL9 | 15:35 |
| thebaypp | Ubersoldat: i only want to accept sudo calls from one specific php scirpt | 15:35 |
| SSL9 | thank you the sound works like charm... but I still have one more problem | 15:35 |
| shawn_ | grawity: that's not very well implemented in 32 bit, its mostly done in 63 and only goes up to about 6 GB in 32 | 15:36 |
| hooloovoo | No one? | 15:36 |
| grawity | thebaypp: then I don't think that's possible. | 15:36 |
| === arvind_k is now known as arvind_khadri | ||
| psicobra | SSL9, that is? | 15:36 |
| shawn_ | BoltClock: well its more about the OS than the CPU, if you're running 32 bit Ubuntu then you're limited to what a 32 bit processor | 15:36 |
| SSL9 | tiny one... I can't add volume control... it gives me an error when i try | 15:36 |
| aloneinthedark | do they know any operating system linux without graphic interface? | 15:36 |
| Mathmech_ | What MSN-Client would you recommend? I don't really liek aMSN, cuz it's buttugly xD | 15:36 |
| psicobra | just use alsamixer from terminal | 15:36 |
| Ubersoldat | thebaypp: maybe you're asking the wrong question | 15:36 |
| grawity | Mathmech_: Pidgin. | 15:36 |

| grawity | shawn_: Quoth the Wiki, "In computing, Physical Address Extension (PAE) is a feature of x86 and x86-64 processors that enable the use of more than 4 gigabytes[1] of physical memory to be used in 32-bit systems, given appropriate operating system support.' | 15:37 |
| BoltClock | grawity: 'given appropriate operating system support' my windows is 32-bit... | 15:37 |
| shawn_ | grawity: yes I know, its technically possible, but its virtually unnecessary | 15:37 |
| sipior | aloneinthedark: sure, you can install linux without an attached graphical interface, if you want. grab the server version of the ubuntu cd, or whatever linux you like. | 15:37 |
| psicobra | SSL9, if not there are a million and one gui mixers you can install brows package manager | 15:37 |
| SSL9 | so I can't use the last controler? | 15:37 |
| grawity | BoltClock: Well, my 32-bit XP *does* have the PAE-compatible kernel installed... I think. | 15:38 |
| hooloovoo | here's some logs | 15:38 |
| hooloovoo | http://pastebin.se/197870 | 15:38 |
| shawn_ | BoltClock: Windows XP has the feature he's talking about, its just not fully implemented in all of them | 15:38 |
| SSL9 | thank you man ! :) | 15:38 |
| grawity | BoltClock: But yes, XP has a limit of 4 GB itself - it just uses PAE for other things. | 15:38 |
| psicobra | SSL9, no problwems glad i could help | 15:38 |
| BoltClock | grawity: ah i see | 15:38 |
| s3r3n1t7 | grawity, xp is around 3.5 actually. | 15:39 |
| psicobra | any one want to buy a server | 15:39 |
| SSL9 | :) have a nice day | 15:39 |
| Mathmech_ | Oh, aMSN has skins xD | 15:39 |
| thebaypp | Ubersoldat: I will explain. I am running apache2 with www-data as it's user. I have a php script that has a line "exec(udo sh /home/seren/seren_drop.sh 2>&1)" - which uses iptables commands... currently I can use these files fine with the ALL notation in the sudoers... however, I'd rather not leave www-data to run wild. So, how can i make sure that either www-data can only run that .sh file (and iptbales) - or only execute comm | 15:39 |
| Familie_ | hello! | 15:40 |
| grawity | BoltClock, shawn_: I think if the CPU suports PAE, then instead of ntoskrnl.exe you will have ntkrnlpa.exe (it's the kernel with PAE support). And WIndows uses that for NX support (google for "data execution prevention"). </offtopic> | 15:40 |
| hooloovoo | No one is brave enough to fix my kernel krashes? | 15:40 |

| Familie_ | sorry i dont know anything about the kernel | 15:40 |
| aloneinthedark | the graphic interfaces and effects are a shit | 15:40 |
| aloneinthedark | the effects is for noobs | 15:41 |
| grawity | aloneinthedark: shut up. If you don't want a GUI, just REMOVE it >:| | 15:41 |
| shawn_ | grawity: meh, but I think its still only technically mapped out to about 4 GB | 15:41 |
| shawn_ | grawity: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension#Microsoft_Windows | 15:41 |
| s3r3n1t7 | grawity, calm down please. | 15:41 |
| grawity | shawn_: Like I said, Windows XP has a limit of 4 GB too - but technically PAE does allow using more than that. | 15:41 |
| aloneinthedark | ? | 15:42 |
| s3r3n1t7 | shawn_, you can use up to 64GB with PAE. | 15:42 |
| sawyer__ | shawn_, for some reason i now have the partition again... | 15:42 |
| aloneinthedark | xp? | 15:42 |
| aloneinthedark | hahah | 15:42 |
| sawyer__ | sometimes, usb ca be weird | 15:42 |
| sawyer__ | thanks for the help :) | 15:42 |
| grawity | shawn_: For example, the table you just pointed to says Win Server can use up to 64 GB. | 15:42 |
| shawn_ | sawyer__: weird, same here | 15:42 |
| grawity | s3r3n1t7: Sorry. I'm not troll-resistant. | 15:42 |
| shawn_ | s3r3n1t7: its dependent upon processor architecture and OS support, not just theoretical limits | 15:42 |
| s3r3n1t7 | grawity, it happens. Would you be so kind to try that for me? | 15:42 |

| sebsebseb | Familie_: to some extent I do | 15:43 |
| === eternal is now known as eternal-ub | ||
| grawity | shawn_: If it has PAE, it allows up to 64 GB. Then it's just the matter of having a capable OS (such as WinServer.) | 15:43 |

| Neaai | hooloovoo: to what I saw, there didn't seem to be any crash there. Reporting messages during the boot/start process. | 15:45 |
| sebsebseb | Familie_: your card it to old for 8.10 and 9.04 | 15:45 |
| s3r3n1t7 | hooloovoo, check the last 50 or so, that should be a good start. Neaai | 15:45 |
| aloneinthedark | the topic is interesting :) | 15:45 |

| cemerick | genii: what I mean is, shouldn't xinetd kill any process it starts to respond to an incoming connection when that connection is dropped? | 16:53 |
| JbL_Sound | thanks it works! | 16:54 |
| genii | cemerick: Since it's being called by a local app (vncserver or so) ? | 16:55 |
| abhishekiitd | hey people...i cant access internet from synaptic or terminal | 16:55 |
| cemerick | genii: xinetd is what's invoking Xvnc, not the other way around... | 16:55 |
| abhishekiitd | though i can use firefox... i actua;;y use a proxy authetication on a static ip | 16:55 |
| ubuntu | I'm resizing a disk with gparted, it's taking a while. Is there any way I can view the progress? It just says resizing, nothing about progress. | 16:56 |
| palmje | abhishekiitd: there are proxy settings in synaptic and also global gnome proxy settings that you can use | 16:56 |
| genii | cemerick: I would suspect if it's not getting input it will just idle, go to screensaver, etc until more input is received. Unless specifically told to shutdown | 16:56 |
| abhishekiitd | palmje:but i have done it and still cant install anything from there | 16:57 |
| genii | ( X itself) | 16:57 |
| palmje | abhishekiitd: which have you tried? | 16:58 |
| palmje | abhishekiitd: the synaptic proxy or the gnome one? | 16:58 |
| benchew | defrysk, checked. found out PCM is the one that disabled. Now my sound card is working!!! Thanks a lot!! | 16:58 |
| abhishekiitd | palmje:i have put in my proxy informtion in synaptic...and i cant still search for programs, or install them | 16:58 |
| abhishekiitd | palmje:what is the gnome one? | 16:59 |
| thebaypp | ok - i am totally stuck... can any one think why this line in my sudoers file would still ask www user for password when doing an iptables command? www-data ALL= NOPASSWD: /home/seren/, /sbin/, /bin/ | 16:59 |
| benchew | defrysk, didn't know what is PCM, so didn't unmute PCM | 16:59 |
| riwa | When i try to connect to msn with pidgin it says: "The root certificate this one claims to be issued by is unknown to Pidgin". Is that dangerous? | 16:59 |
| defrysk | benchew, a muted channel can spoil a lot ;) | 16:59 |
| palmje | abhishekiitd: you can't even search for programs? | 16:59 |
| abhishekiitd | palmje:hey i got it i had to edit apt.conf and bash.bashrc file, and now i cant...thanks anyway! | 17:00 |
| palmje | abhishekiitd: the gnome proxy settings are in: System->Preferences->Network Proxy | 17:00 |
| abhishekiitd | palmje:yah but doing that didt help | 17:00 |
| defrysk | benchew, some apps use pcm for more volume , others master , 100% master and 100% pcm might destort sound a bit , better to keep them <= 90% | 17:01 |

| starsunflower | i think i saw winamp listed in wine-doors | 17:10 |
| palmje | soso: you can try using wine, but the question is why? | 17:11 |
| starsunflower | install wine, then wine-doors and it will bring up a little programs list of things you can install | 17:11 |
| bignos | xmms is pretty much a clone of winamp | 17:11 |
| starsunflower | audacious is very similar | 17:11 |
| bitterblackale | If you like winamp, you might have more luck with xmms | 17:11 |
| starsunflower | yeah, and i think you can skin it with winamp skins | 17:11 |
| grawity | xmms isn't being developed anymore, I think. | 17:11 |
| palmje | soso: amarok is probably a better choice | 17:11 |
| starsunflower | it's called audacious now | 17:11 |

| chaosfactory | hi - was wondering if anyone could help me get my touchpad working on my acer aspire one on ubuntu? | 17:13 |
| Rogir | the only other program I have running are firefox and gaim | 17:14 |
| palmje | Rogir: find the window(s) and close them | 17:14 |
| jdu | Rogir: close out the ones you aren't using or let them finish and then start up the one you want | 17:14 |
| grawity | nicklas_: I would recommend using OpenVPN if possible ... or L2TP with IPsec (which is unfortunately quite hard to configure). PPTP isn't very bad, but on some setups it lacks security. | 17:14 |
| Rogir | right now I have three windows: firefox, gaim (this one) and Add/Remove applications | 17:14 |
| thantalos | I wanna give Ubuntu 9.04 a try - do I still have to use the alternate install in order to encrypt the hard drive or is this now integrated into to the desktop cd? | 17:15 |
| grawity | Rogir: Gaim? :o (Not related to your problem, but it's been renamed to Pidgin long ago) | 17:15 |
| JbL_Sound | download manager in terminal? | 17:15 |
| nicklas_ | grawity, ok, because it seems like most vpn services that i find on the net, only supports PPTP | 17:15 |
| grawity | nicklas_: PPTP is supported by all Windows systems from Win95. | 17:15 |
| Rogir | well, I still use 7.04..., will upgrade when the new cd arrives here | 17:15 |

| o0Chris0o | sebsebseb→ I know what I need to do, but the rar file wont open up in Archive Manager | 17:39 |
| sebsebseb | o0Chris0o: why are you using a RAR anyway? RAR's are a bad closed source format from the Windows world. also WinRAR itself is not that good | 17:40 |
| WaSrD | may i inquire about a wireless issue here? | 17:40 |
| o0Chris0o | sebsebseb→ because thats how I received a file I got from a friend | 17:40 |
| sebsebseb | o0Chris0o: 7-zip or whatever could open them. only for the terminal in Linux, but the GUI version would run in Wine | 17:40 |

| Lint01 | mneptok: rar files have best compression around | 17:44 |
| sebsebseb | o0Chris0o: maybe you should get your friend to send you stuff as a .zip or a tar.gz :D then you woudn't have these kind of issues. and he can create both files in 7-zip http://www.7-zip.org and that programs is so much better than WinRAR on Windows | 17:44 |

| sebsebseb | mneptok: ,but I guess you can get away with it no problem, since your an op :D | 17:44 |

| grawity | mneptok: avi is a container, like you said - the data isn't always compressed much. | 17:45 |
| sebsebseb | grawity: [17:42] <mneptok> and may i say, for the record, .rar files are oretty much a license plate on your computer that read "I=IDIOT" | 17:46 |
| mneptok | grawity: 99% of the time .avi is containing DivX or Xvid. that's MP4. MP4 is compressed. | 17:46 |
| sebsebseb | grawity: and Chris didn't agree with that comment. and then it shows who has the op etc. see above | 17:46 |
| grawity | mneptok: Xvid != MP4 ... | 17:46 |
| chaosfactory | hey again - xinput is recognising my touchpad but the touchpad isn't working | 17:46 |

| ActionParsnip | furenku: you can download the 32bit tar.gz and extract the .so file to ~/.mozilla/plugins | 17:58 |
| genii | Foloex: sh instead of bash shouldn't matter | 17:58 |

| iceroot | krammer_: use sudo instead of a real root-account | 18:39 |
| Steeley | exaile | 18:39 |
| Brandie | you can use sudo, and for managing files as root | 18:39 |
| iceroot | !sudo | krammer_ | 18:39 |
| ubottu | krammer_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 18:39 |

| ka6sox | is this the right place to ask about broken dist-upgrades? | 18:40 |
| Guest14136 | hi | 18:40 |
| iceroot | ka6sox: yes | 18:40 |
| iceroot | Guest14136: hi | 18:40 |
| PerryArmstrong | ActionParsnip; i want to do this autologin for just on time..that is during this restart | 18:40 |
| ka6sox | I have a number of Xen instances that are on edgy and I'm trying to take them to hardy. | 18:40 |
| iceroot | Guest63441: yes you can but vmware is not in the repos | 18:40 |
| ActionParsnip | PerryArmstrong: sudo shutdown -r +m 20 will reboot the system in 20 mins | 18:41 |
| ka6sox | I have done dist-upgrades manually to get to gutsy but I'm getting circular unmet dependencies on console-common and console-setup | 18:41 |
| psychic | that means something is continuously and neccassarilly using 42 megs at all times? | 18:41 |
| Guest63441 | iceroot: What do you mean by its not in the repos ? :) | 18:41 |
| PerryArmstrong | ActionParsnip; thank you and the autologin that follows after this? | 18:42 |
| iceroot | Guest63441: that vmware is not in the repos (apt-get) you have to download it from the website | 18:42 |
| spaceBARbarian | can i download banshee from apt ? | 18:42 |
| Steeley | yes | 18:42 |
| ActionParsnip | !autologin | 18:42 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about autologin | 18:42 |
| nyaa | wow there is a graphical version. I can see why the command line is better when you accidentally give something -20 priority! | 18:43 |
| iceroot | spaceBARbarian: apt-cache search banshee will tell you | 18:43 |
| Guest63441 | iceroot: Okay, but if i install windows 7 in it, can i play call of duty and such games in it then ? | 18:43 |

| krammer_ | I am trying to configure ndiswrapper just installed the package what do I need to do next? | 18:45 |
| nyaa | kramer you need to find the .sys and .inf files for the driver you want to use | 18:46 |
| krammer_ | nyaa, where do i start | 18:46 |
| nyaa | Jimbo__ do you mean a tty or the gui terminal? | 18:47 |
| chaosfactory | not sure if anyone can help me with this - but my xorg.conf file doesn't have any entries for input devices (just monitors and screens) and my touchpad is no longer working | 18:47 |

| nyaa | kramer_: I'm not a total pro at it, but what equipment do you want to install a driver for exactly? | 18:48 |
| nyaa | Jimbo__ may try ctl + shift + T | 18:48 |
| harpreet | How do I make USB work in virtual machine XP? | 18:48 |
| nyaa | kramer_: I know there is a place within windows that will have it, but I don't remember where (I had to show hidden files in windows to get mine there), I had an easier time googling for the .sys and .inf files in my case lol | 18:49 |
| === xxx__ is now known as _iron | ||
| iceroot | harpreet: virtualbox? | 18:49 |
| grawity | nyaa: Maybe %SystemRoot%\inf (usually C:\WINDOWS\inf) | 18:49 |
| Jimbo__ | nyaa, well that gives me an extra tab. What I'd really like to do is split the window into thirds so that I can have three terminals open | 18:49 |
| nyaa | Jimbo__ then press it again lol | 18:50 |
| harpreet | iceroot: u dont know what that is? | 18:50 |
| Dreamglider | harpreet: i have been trying tha same thing today, my solution: Run VirtualBox as root! :P | 18:50 |
| nyaa | Jimbo__ you can do it as many times as you like | 18:50 |
| iceroot | harpreet: i have asked if you are suing virtualbox | 18:50 |
| harpreet | iceroot: yes | 18:50 |
| Jimbo__ | nyaa, that doesn't split it though.. It adds a tab | 18:50 |
| iceroot | harpreet: usb only works in the nonfree version of virtualbox | 18:50 |
| mib_9u3wglzc | hi , i need help on turing on my wlan0, none of the usual buttons work, is there a work around ? | 18:50 |
| harpreet | Dreamglider: how do i run it as root? | 18:50 |
| Dreamglider | harpreet: in terminal sudo VirtuaBox | 18:51 |
| Steeley | Jimbo_ the only thing gnome-terminal can do is open new windows or new tabs, you'd have to find a different shell to do that | 18:51 |
| Jimbo__ | I'dlike to cut the window in half/thirds/quarters and have 2/3/4 terminals open in one window | 18:51 |
| nyaa | Jimbo__ I'll open a dialogue since I don't fully understand the problem and don't want to spam the channel | 18:51 |

| quibbler | PerryArmstrong-> i have not used that, just the auto login...but i think it is self explanatory | 18:51 |
| Dreamglider | harpreet: you have to use the VirtualBox not virtualbox-ose as far as i know. | 18:51 |
| PerryArmstrong | quibbler; but this autologin always works..i want it to work only once...any shell program to be written for this?? | 18:52 |
| nighstalker | Dreamglider is right | 18:52 |

| Dreamglider | to the ose it "os" so it's just a matter of time till someone adds the usb thingie (I hope) | 18:53 |
| quibbler | PerryArmstrong-> why only once? | 18:53 |

| Steeley | right, now try sudo ifup wlan0. it seems that NM takes priority over the scripts that allow bringing up interfaces | 19:16 |
| Tiffer9000 | hello can anyone help me with using my usb stick in ubuntu | 19:16 |
| nikitis | LjL, is the way the data comes from the gps | 19:16 |

| Steeley | when I try to ifdown wlan0 on my computer, I get the error as you unless network-manager isn't managing the connection | 19:16 |
| mib_9u3wglzc | nyaa:it sees my wifi as it has the name, and last time the option "Wirless" was not then | 19:16 |
| genii | japanfred: So they are mounting under correct folders but also the old mountpoints are also appeaing? | 19:16 |
| cybertexx | Need some help, anyone? | 19:17 |
| Tiffer9000 | how can i access my usb stick anyone | 19:17 |
| japanfred | genii: in Nautlis as my user, yes. If i do a gksudo nautilus, they appear correctly... Which made me think it was a setting in the .nautilus folder under my user, so i deleted it, rebooted, same problem. | 19:17 |
| Tiffer9000 | please help | 19:18 |
| genii | japanfred: Well, /media dirs are also auto created by same name as devices it finds | 19:18 |
| japanfred | genii: i noticed, i commented out the mount in fstab, and the Storage/Download folder appeared, along with a another folder with an underscore appended | 19:19 |
| Tiffer9000 | can anyone help me here | 19:19 |
| japanfred | genii: but why is it OK when i do it under gksudo in nautilus? hmm. | 19:19 |
| japanfred | Tiffer9000, it should appear in Nautilus when you insert it | 19:19 |
| mib_9u3wglzc | when i type in the terminal "iwconfig" it shows me my wifi, but i still cant use it, or turn it on using the command given to me | 19:20 |

| quibbler | kronos84-> in a terminal do: sudo apt-get update and paste the error | 19:50 |

| keystr0k | it might sound a little 'anal', but is there a way so that when I double click my title bar on a window, it resizes but not nearly full screen... poorly formed question, I know. | 19:52 |
| shane__ | cbone: You can on most aircards, but usually you half to use a dial up tool so its not really that great. I sent my sprint aircard back because it was hit and miss to get it working | 19:52 |
| quibbler | MenZa-> no problems...we are all here for the same thing | 19:52 |
| jasballz | ShinyHat: I can relate, for some reason in VMWare I couldnt use my host wifi for XP in Ubuntu | 19:53 |
| kronos84 | menza have been there no luck identifying that area where I can issdue that command | 19:53 |
| keystr0k | When I double click the title bar or click the Maximize window button (middle) I'd like it to be a smaller sized window... it comes up just barely smaller than fullscreen. | 19:53 |
| jasballz | gartral: sounds gr8 thx | 19:53 |
| naftilos76 | jasballz - Do not instist on ndiswrapper. I've tried it extensively and it worked ok but the return value of the signal indication was 10% instead of 90% which of course is not a problem but as i said i'd rather stay with module rt2500pci! Anyway, the problem is not really of crucial importance! All i'm facing is that i have to do 'sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M', every time i boot, in a terminal. What i'm asking is whether anybody knows | 19:53 |
| naftilos76 | how i can force 54Mbits in a constant manner! | 19:53 |
| keystr0k | nevermind. duh. heh | 19:53 |
| quibbler | MenZa-> you are just a faster typist!!;) | 19:53 |

| MenZa | quibbler→ It has its advantages. :) | 19:54 |
| jasballz | naftilos76: I've had good experiences with ndiswrapper for my artheros AR5006EG, while slower than XP pretty good | 19:54 |
| naftilos76 | Has anybody got an idea regarding the above??? | 19:54 |
| MenZa | jasballz→ Why don't you use the native ath5k driver? | 19:54 |
| MenZa | jasballz→ I have an AR242x chip; it works like a charm. | 19:55 |
| jasballz | ShinyHat: Yah, but VMware is better than virtualbox since it can run WIn7Beta and MacOs (still working on the MacOs) most of the time, I have no problem with that | 19:55 |
| shane__ | no prob man, there great inventions but honestly 5Gb cap, 2 year contract plus lack of linux support, not to great | 19:55 |
| jasballz | MenZa: I do, now that I'm running Jaunty Alpha 6 or 7, but b4 I had to use Ndiswrapper, at least in Heron | 19:55 |
| gartral | jasballz: im sure you have, but for clarities sake, did you open up your firewalls too allow FTP BOTH ways? | 19:56 |
| ShinyHat | jasballz: is windows 7 worth running though? | 19:56 |
| MenZa | jasballz→ the ath_pci module worked fine for me back in Hardy. Intrepid forced me to use the ath5k driver, though. | 19:56 |

| elik | I just booted Unbutu 8.10 and was asked for a pw.. thought it was weird. I rebooted and landed right in ubuntu (what I expected it to do)... Searching the web, I see that some ppl had mem issues.. could it be why it acted wierd first time? or could it be an option... | 19:57 |

| gartral | jasballz: connection timed out | 19:58 |
| naftilos76 | jasballz - You are absolutely right! Atheros works great with ndiswrapper! You can say that again...It's just that the only thing i must do is force it to 54Mbits. Be reminded that the desktop is one meter from the wireless router which implies that i can use a god dam utp cable which i have done and it works flawlessly but as i said, i need to do this work..It's not a crime, is it? | 19:58 |

| Nithrin | Is KDE Ubuntu or Kbuntu or whatever? | 20:23 |
| akis | chat.hellasirc.net | 20:23 |
| grawity | Nithrin: Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE. | 20:23 |
| Nithrin | Then I imagine 99% of people end up using the K one tho | 20:23 |
| Nithrin | Seems like everything needs KDE | 20:24 |
| * verme has to go | 20:24 | |
| grawity | I use the Gnome one :/ | 20:24 |
| Nithrin | I like Gnome, but it lacks a really kickbutt MUD program | 20:24 |
| mason_ | I love Gnome | 20:24 |
| mason_ | All the other desktops I've tried just don't cut it for me | 20:24 |
| Nithrin | I am looking for a nice program to play MUDs with. | 20:25 |
| * shadeslayer looks at everyone,he uses every DE,where does that put him? | 20:25 | |
| syockit | Nithrin: that usually happens because some kde packages are recommended by others, although not really needed. I get to use many qt apps without installing kde parts at all | 20:25 |
| grawity | Nithrin: How about tt++ on terminal? | 20:25 |
| Nasra | jasballz: gartral: the " sudo lshw" did that trick ....thanks alot all | 20:25 |
| Enigma | shadeslayer, i use gnome, ldxe and xfce | 20:25 |
| Nithrin | does tt++ allow you to make travel scripts and fighting scripts and whatnot? | 20:25 |
| shadeslayer | Enigma: add KDE to that | 20:26 |
| jasballz | i got lost, idky but ubuntu has been crashing on me like windows. lots | 20:26 |
| Enigma | i could do it | 20:26 |
| Enigma | not a big fan of KDE, i tried using it, but i couldnt bring myself to do it | 20:26 |

| jasballz | to the guy who wanted his system specs from ubuntu: i ran lshw and it shows more than youd probably ever even need to know, | 20:28 |
| Taijiquan | hi | 20:28 |
| jasballz | lenswipe: weird. | 20:28 |
| gartral | Enigma: that's because the network manager is a seperate app, and doesnt rely on much to run | 20:28 |
| jasballz | lenswipe: i've never tried changing resolution via terminal | 20:28 |
| lenswipe | jasballz: well i know the resultion that i need (1280 x 1024) but its not in the list | 20:28 |
| jasballz | lenswipe: google it and tell me what you find | 20:28 |
| lenswipe | i did | 20:28 |

| kantor | jasballz, a network traffic generator (flooding program) I'm just asking because I've created a for for mausezahn . . . and I wanted some opinions . . . | 20:32 |
| GodfatherofEire | Quibbler, thanks | 20:32 |
| jasballz | gartral: thx for trying, definitely firewallled ISP, will do some homework on dns hacking, etc. Hopefully I can get a faculty member to sponsor my distro so Bonas opens a port for Linux FTP from my laptop | 20:32 |
| lenswipe | that because you dont use the CIFS protocol, you need to use the SMB protocol.... | 20:33 |
| quibbler | GodfatherofEire-> you are welcome | 20:33 |
| Bam_Bam | jasballz, I dialogged you | 20:33 |
| jasballz | kantor: is it to test network bandwidth? | 20:33 |
| aryah | hi! regarding imap service of gmail im having trouble with, if I try telnet imap.gmail.com 993 i also get Connection refused. This shouldnt be happening i presume? | 20:33 |
| aris | Please | 20:33 |
| jasballz | shadeslayer: you got it. Funny thing is kcmwifi works in gnome, but not the other way around. I like the acoustic scanner. lol, its like metal detecting for wlans | 20:33 |
| aris | How to know if the network is shared | 20:33 |
| aris | ? | 20:33 |
| aris | Like under Windwos | 20:33 |
| aris | I can make NBTSTAT -A 213.137.129.229 | 20:34 |
| mrwes | Aris: Places | network -- do you see anything? | 20:34 |
| Bam_Bam | Also, is there some sort of graphic EQ I can use to modify ALSA output? | 20:34 |
| shadeslayer | jasballz: my wifi works under GNOME but not under KDE,tho it has the same settings | 20:34 |
| aris | But under Linux which command can I use ? Please answer | 20:34 |
| gartral | Bam_Bam: see the speaker in the corner? | 20:34 |
| kantor | jasballz, not exactly, it is used for Dos attack (of course only for testing purposes), to test OS security, cpu load n the target machine and such things . . . | 20:34 |
| cccharles | aris: please be patient. | 20:35 |
| jasballz | Bam_Bam: shadeslayer: same for me, idky. | 20:35 |
| Bam_Bam | gartral, mine doesn't have an EQ in there that Ive seen | 20:35 |
| gartral | Bam_Bam: theres a drop box at the top with all availible sound drivers | 20:35 |
| jasballz | anyone know how to get Ubuntu to stop crashing like its windows? I'm running alpha dev versions of Jaunty | 20:35 |
| aris | Mrwes: I'm just a biginner under Linux | 20:35 |
| cccharles | aris: jdfoote3 made a suggestion above | 20:35 |
| gartral | jasballz: ask in ubuntu+1 | 20:36 |
| Bam_Bam | gartral, those are only input / output gains though | 20:36 |
| jasballz | or how to have firefox stop freezing when uploading heavily >4g to megashares or bazaar? | 20:36 |
| Bam_Bam | I want to cut frequencies | 20:36 |
| Flannel | jasballz: You're running a development version. To have it be stable, run a stable version. | 20:36 |
| jasballz | gartral: ok, I'm guessing it has to do with the devving, I'm sure by Apr 24 the the kinks will be ironned out | 20:36 |
| jasballz | Flannel: thx | 20:36 |
| gartral | Bam_Bam: ohh, no, EQs are handled by programs, youll have to set them all up yourself | 20:36 |
| aris | cccharles: what suggestion ? | 20:36 |
| shadeslayer | bye all | 20:36 |
| aryah | aris, if you want a console comamnd, perhaps try smbclient on yourself? smbclinet -L hostname ? | 20:37 |
| mrwes | Bam_Bam, there is not a system wide EQ | 20:37 |
| cccharles | aris: <jdfoote3> aris: nmblookup -h? | 20:37 |

| gartral | mrwes: um... didnt ESD have a "master EQ plugin" or some such? | 20:38 |

| Xpistos | Hey can somebody help me figure out why I can't get to my linux shares from my windows box. says I don't have permissions | 20:39 |
| jasballz | administrator: Im having trouble with apache and dropbox. Whats x server | 20:39 |
| gartral | administrator_: silly question, but what happens when you hit ctrl+alt+F7? | 20:39 |
| jasballz | Xpistos: linux "shares"? what do you mean by shares? | 20:39 |
| gartral | jasballz: X.org server, you wouldnt have ANY guis without it | 20:39 |
| gouki | Hi. Anyone has a debootstrap script for jaunty? | 20:39 |
| aris | I have to try | 20:39 |
| Bam_Bam | GodfatherofEire, I just wanted some control over the mix | 20:39 |
| kantor | jasballz, denial of service when you flood a machine where a server is running and the server could not answer to valid requests because it is overwhelmed with invalid, "malicious" packets | 20:39 |
| Xpistos | jasballz: I have some folders set to share to the network, but when I try to access them from a windows box, it won't take my user password | 20:39 |
| GodfatherofEire | Bam_Bam, ah | 20:39 |
| Bam_Bam | and to tweak a mic input | 20:39 |
| Bam_Bam | like suck out the mids a bit | 20:40 |
| administrator_ | gartral nothing happens now, do you meen after i install that driver and get black screen | 20:40 |
| Xpistos | jasballz: I can go into the windows folders from my linux box but not backwards | 20:40 |
| Bam_Bam | its this screachy awful sounding cacophony of everything | 20:40 |
| aris | After a trace rout of the server or a ping of the server how can you do to exploit the results ? | 20:40 |
| GodfatherofEire | Ah | 20:40 |
| jasballz | Xpistos: so you have two computers, ext3/4 or Linux Ubuntu and Windows and you want to access the ext3 filesystem via a network in Windows? Tell me if I'm wrong, but it might be a problem of filesystems? | 20:40 |
| Picassotamus | Bam_Bam: r u using alsa/tried alsamixer? | 20:41 |
| joshjtl_ | can I downgrade intel drivers back to intrepid? | 20:41 |
| Bam_Bam | yeah I am | 20:41 |
| Bam_Bam | its a creative xfi xtremegamer card | 20:41 |
| jasballz | Xpistos: you might have to download w/e drivers or software you may need to access ext3 filesystems in windows. I've never tried it | 20:41 |
| Bam_Bam | which has really poor linux support | 20:41 |
| usser | joshjtl_, why would you do that, intel driver in jaunty is wonderful | 20:41 |
| Xpistos | jasballz: Yes. hm. So you think I ned to have the ext convert in windows? | 20:41 |
| administrator_ | is there better driver fxgrl in jaunty than in intrepid now | 20:42 |
| joshjtl_ | usser: not on my machine its not... causing unrecoverable lockups | 20:42 |
| joshjtl_ | usser: theres a known bug | 20:42 |
| Picassotamus | Bam_Bam: so u tried alsamixer, and it didn't work? | 20:42 |
| jasballz | Xpistos: definitely. ITs worth a shot. Probably'll work after that I'm guessing, and you shouldn't have problems with permissions after either. | 20:42 |
| Finnish | administrator_: Yeah | 20:42 |
| administrator_ | Finnish, how can i get that | 20:42 |
| ogre | do I need to run ubuntu server to setup an asterisk pbx? will regular ubuntu work for this if I have all the packages? | 20:43 |
| === administrator_ is now known as apadox | ||
| jasballz | administrator_: Jaunty is the shi**. I'm running it now, you want it. But I guess moderators told me not to suggest "sudo update-manager -d" in terminal so I won't. | 20:43 |
| Finnish | I guess you should first have jaunty, and then check repos or hardware drivers-section | 20:43 |
| Bam_Bam | Picassotamus, it doesn't have even a two band eq | 20:43 |
| SvenZ | mighty quiest | 20:43 |
| Bam_Bam | just gain control | 20:43 |
| erUSUL | ogre: the later should be true | 20:43 |

| quibbler | Xpistos-> look here: http://www.fs-driver.org/ | 20:44 |
| Bam_Bam | channels* | 20:44 |
| jasballz | administrator_: then again, you could always just try a clean install. Maybe back up with remastersys but dont install from that livecd, just back up w/e data you need | 20:44 |
| lenswipe | lol | 20:44 |
| Xpistos | quibbler: Thanks, I was just looking at it myself. | 20:44 |

| apadox | this is clean install so i have all the data backuped | 20:44 |
| apadox | than i will try jaunty and see what happens | 20:44 |
| aris | Answer please ! | 20:45 |
| jasballz | themiddleman: IDK, but you can get daily builds thru "sudo update-manager -d" in terminal | 20:45 |
| SvenZ | quiet | 20:45 |
| SvenZ | id pick yalls brains, but im about to head out | 20:45 |
| Xpistos | aris: You can't | 20:45 |
| themiddleman | jasballz, yeah, I want to do a clean install though | 20:45 |
| jasballz | aris: IDK, if it requires a password you have to put one in, if not, you shouldnt have to. Did you try Places/connect to server? | 20:45 |
| jasballz | apadox: I love jaunty, but thats just me. | 20:46 |

| Martyr2k6 | or rather just plain old backing up? | 20:48 |
| Xpistos | jasballz: I have the folder showing up in windows, when I try and connect it says it is not accessable and I might not have permission. I am trying to login with the same usr and pwd as my laptop, but no luck | 20:48 |
| erUSUL | Martyr2k6: what do you want to bckup? personal data? package selections? | 20:48 |
| jasballz | matrixblue_: Most USB flashes don't have to worry about wear since they're flash. They're peanut linux. I don't think file system type matters but Iwould go with plain FAT or FAT32 | 20:48 |
| gartral | matrixblue_: your kinda restricted to the vfat thats alrady on the drive, though a loopback etx2 will probably suit your needs | 20:49 |
| Xpistos | jasballz: I was trying to play a podcast from my gpodder folder on my wife's windows box while I was cleaning the bed room | 20:49 |
| MrElendig | jasballz: flash is horrible when it comes to wear.... | 20:49 |
| gartral | matrixblue_: ext2* | 20:49 |

You can get a list of your currently-installed packages with dpkg --get-selections, copy that file to the new drive, use dpkg --set-selections and download the packages from that. There's a factoid for it, but I don't remember it. | 20:53 |
| jasballz | egc: Use HFS journaled but not extended I think, theres something about it, don't "index" it when format, that allows Linux to mod the files, but if its "indexed" or "extended" or something like that it can view but not mod. | 20:53 |
| aris | jasballz: yes, when I put a distance computer IP it's moves me on the Terminal Server Client ask me to Log On to Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition: User name:.......... ; Password I try with my Linux user name and password but it does not work. What can I do please ? Can you propose me something please ? | 20:53 |
| DJones | !cloning | Martyr2k6 | 20:53 |
| ubottu | Martyr2k6: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --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 !automate | 20:53 |

| eseven73 | MenZa, what do you use to copy /home to a new hd? Ive tried clonezilla and partimage with no luck | 20:54 |
| jasballz | aris: try going Places/Connect to server. Or did you already try that? If its FTP and theres an IP do "ftp that_address" in terminal | 20:55 |
| Martyr2k6 | I prefer the setup as it stands from intrepid ibex | 20:55 |

| frostburn | Igglyboo, yes, but that would require the ubuntu cd and adding the cd to your repo | 21:26 |

| jasballz | dust_t: uh, I have no idea. Maybe try another OS on another partition and see what luck you have | 21:26 |

| Igglyboo | can i throw the file on a flash drive? | 21:27 |
| casper_ | how the hell u do that | 21:27 |
| jasballz | Igglyboo: you can add software sources in system/admin and synaptec. Also in terminal "sudo apt-get install" w/e. Google what you want and generally there are terminal commands for them | 21:27 |
| Igglyboo | im not really sure how to install programs outside of the add/remove | 21:27 |
| Igglyboo | jasballz: without the internet tho | 21:27 |

| Martyr2k6 | iggy, I am new as well, but you need to not be affraid of using command line (makes me squeemish thinking about it) and also using synaptic. there are many different ways to install different applications in linux | 21:27 |

| jasballz | MrElendig: what distro? hopefully u r not talking about buddhabuntu.8m.net ?? ;-) | 21:28 |
| Martyr2k6 | unfortunately, as far as I have found, there is no ONE way that is RIGHT for all applications.. correct me if I am wrong, anyone | 21:28 |
| casper_ | wat if i just click them all? | 21:28 |
| Martyr2k6 | aside from in terminal | 21:28 |

| Martyr2k6 | yeah installing things in linux are a big wooky, but you get used to it | 21:29 |

| Lordievader | hey | 21:40 |
| showers | all however, is not joy. i can't get connected from firefox in ubuntu | 21:41 |
| joe-mac | so say you accidentally nuke /etc/apache2. When you re install apache2.2-common the mods-available folder is empty, yet dpkg -s or whatever the switch is says the folder is owned by apache2.2-common. Is there something other than a standard re install you need to do to re-populate the available modules directory? | 21:41 |
| frostburn | joe-mac, you can extract the modules from the deb | 21:41 |
| joe-mac | frostburn: i appreciate your suggestion and it is valid, however it's more of a workaround | 21:42 |
| Lordievader | shower, you mean you can't connect to the internet through FF? | 21:42 |

| joe-mac | like there were no .confs or .loads at all | 21:43 |
| ikonia | casper_: if there is an update available ubuntu will offer one | 21:43 |
| joe-mac | i had to actually copy them over from another wwwserver | 21:43 |
| casper_ | it didnt | 21:43 |
| ikonia | casper_: then there is not an update available from ubuntu | 21:43 |
| showers | what kind of connection do you have? you ask. ethernet. hooks to a wire at the back of the computer. said wire leads to a square ariel thing on the roof. which points at a tower over on the hill. maybe there is a group just for getting connected | 21:43 |
| casper_ | 2.0 | 21:43 |
| jdu | casper_ is the version outdated? | 21:43 |
| ikonia | casper_: current ubuntu stable is 1.2.5.2 | 21:44 |

| frostburn | joe-mac, the /etc/ directory structure is still there, there's a apt-get option to force reinstall, but i don't recall what it is | 21:45 |
| starsunflower | sagredo you talking about something like "recordmydesktop"? | 21:45 |
| showers | the only time i did manage to get connected was when i edited the connection and set everything manually. that was last night. today when i fired it up it had reset to automatic and even when i reset to manual and punch in all those delightful numbers it still won't connect. | 21:46 |
| joe-mac | frostburn: sweet, i'll look into that, i just kinda wanted reassurance that i could do it with the PM and that it wasn't a bug | 21:46 |

| oCean_ | happy-dude: well, a repository provides packages and their dependencies. If it's that new, I don't think there is a 3.0.8 in any repo | 22:57 |
| bo7amny | kubuntu live cd is asking me for a user name and a password . what should i but ? | 22:57 |
| ryanakca | Is there a way I can set a limit to the amount of memory a certain process uses? I know of nice, but that only affects scheduling / CPU usage, no? | 22:57 |
| FabParma | How to make changes in the "system setting" (control panel like). Thanks | 22:57 |

| etfb | I want my laptop to work with a screen resolution of 1280x800, because that's its default. I don't want to use the proprietary ATI driver, because it's broken and stupid. What are my options? | 22:58 |
| happy-dude | oCean_ -- yeah-- I believe that's the case too-- think you can personally look into the tar.bz file and check it out if you know how to compile ? | 22:58 |
| ryanakca | bo7amny: try Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, see if it'll fix it for you | 22:58 |
| oCean_ | happy-dude: I found http://download.tuxfamily.org/ has swiftweasel/swiftdove repo. See this http://www.kubuntuway.net/forum/showthread.php?t=241 how that would work. | 22:58 |
| ron2010 | blackwater: so in bios turn off apci or turn on apm? | 22:58 |
| bo7amny | i will try | 22:58 |
| ryanakca | bo7amny: if not, go Ctrl-Alt-F1, type in passwd<enter>, set a password, and then go Ctrl-Alt-F7 and login with ``ubuntu'' as the username and the password you just set | 22:59 |

| oCean_ | happy-dude: let me have a look. There should be some install/compile documentation in the archive though | 23:00 |

| themiddleman | can I install jaunty on ext4? | 23:04 |
| kitche | jatt: because one is built with gnomelibs and the otehr gtk what's so hard to understand that? | 23:04 |
| happy-dude | jacobyles :: try changing its permissions? | 23:04 |
| jdu | jatt, it would take a lot of space for vim-full to be included by default | 23:04 |
| glaksmono | helppppppppppppp | 23:05 |
| jacoblyles | happy-dude: how would I do that? | 23:05 |

| h4ck3rs0nly | ow ok... | 23:05 |
| oCean_ | happy-dude: apparently, there is no need to compile. Unpack the archive (tar xvfz filename.tar.gz) See the README.txt - it seems mozilla specific- chapter "installing mozilla" and the paragraph called "To install Mozilla by downloading the tar.gz file" | 23:05 |
| MK-ubuntu | hum... | 23:05 |

| glaksmono | i created a new file using emacs, and idk where did i put that file. i just have it on the default location. | 23:06 |
| h4ck3rs0nly | the weird thing is | 23:06 |
| themiddleman | how can I install jaunty to ext4, it's not an option in the partitioner | 23:06 |

| oCean_ | happy-dude: after unpacking, I can "cd" into the directory called 'swiftweasel' and then start it by executing ./swiftweasel | 23:06 |
| ron2010 | hey blackwater: i check bios for setup | 23:06 |
| the10nitro | In the shell, how do I determine if something is a file or folder. Also, how do I tell if it is a symlink? | 23:06 |
| kitche | jatt: gtk can be used everywhere the gnome interface is built using gnome specific stuff really I have never heard of it myself but think there is one | 23:06 |
| ron2010 | but my bios doesnt have that options | 23:06 |
| h4ck3rs0nly | 8.10 and 9.04 dont see the card but use it with desktop effects | 23:06 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: search for it using whatever search tools you know how to use | 23:06 |
| ron2010 | it has power management | 23:06 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, example? | 23:06 |
| happy-dude | oCean_ alright -- which package did you get? | 23:06 |
| ron2010 | but no apci or apm | 23:06 |
| jacoblyles | happy-dude: the permissions window says I can't change the permissions on it because I'm not root | 23:06 |
| h4ck3rs0nly | so what do i have to do? | 23:06 |
| etfb | I just tried dpkg-reconfigure and all it did was set up the keyboard. WTF? How do I reconfigure my video??? | 23:06 |

| thebackwash | ron2010: i don't have a methodical way to fix that problem | 23:08 |
| ron2010 | if i can get the error. at least i can google it or ask in this channel | 23:08 |

| ron2010 | how do i view errors logs in ubuntu | 23:09 |

| happy-dude | oCean_ :: that link is broken for me: /usr/lib/libxul.so.0d apparently isn't there | 23:15 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: did you save the file in emacs? | 23:15 |
| the10nitro | If I symlink to another symlink, does it follow them both, or automatically link to the final target? | 23:16 |
| MenZa | the10nitro→ without knowing, I would *assume* the former | 23:16 |
| coolmadmax | the backwash: do i need one router ? | 23:16 |
| |f| | how do I switch to the 2.6.27 kernel? I have 2.6.24 now even after upgrading from 8.04 to 8.10 | 23:16 |

| coolmadmax | thanks | 23:17 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, i just do a new file | 23:17 |
| thebackwash | but you don't hit C-x C-s? | 23:17 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, i type a file and then press enter, i'm not sure whether emacs create a blank file already or not, but i didn't do save after that | 23:17 |
| temporarytao | hi, just want to know; is anybody else's internet connection spotty? | 23:17 |
| WhyteWolf | Anyone got problems with Alsa in 9.04? | 23:17 |
| Seeker` | "spotty"? | 23:18 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: you should make sure you save the files | 23:18 |
| temporarytao | my internet is kind of slow | 23:18 |
| metalfan_ | hi | 23:18 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: that's why you might not be able to find them | 23:18 |
| Seeker` | WhyteWolf: 9.04 is still beta, not supported here yet | 23:18 |
| happy-dude | oCean_ :: oh, and xulrunner is installed (with firefox and is at 1.9) | 23:18 |
| WhyteWolf | OK Tks | 23:18 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, hmm.. well actually i just wanted to try out using emacs, but i'm not sure on how it works | 23:18 |
| metalfan_ | why does "sudo aptitude search avrdude" not find avrdude? its listed here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/avrdude/5.5-3 | 23:18 |
| oCean_ | happy-dude: oh, indeed | 23:18 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: there's a definite possibility that emacs saved a backup file | 23:18 |
| temporarytao | i'm kind of thinking, maybe its got something to do with conficker. not that i think i'm infected. i'm in ubuntu after all | 23:19 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, so basically i create a new file, it ask me to type a name. i'm wondering if emacs write a file at that time. | 23:19 |
| recon69 | WhyteWolf: think you need #ubuntu+1 | 23:19 |
| MenZa | metalfan_→ might need to run sudo apt-get update | 23:19 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: look for a filename with a ~ appended at the end, or surrounded with # marks | 23:19 |
| temporarytao | maybe there's some congestion going on because of the conficker "hosts" trying to contact their webhosts and being blocked | 23:19 |
| metalfan_ | MenZa, its in there since 2008 | 23:19 |
| WhyteWolf | Tks will try there | 23:19 |
| MenZa | metalfan_→ maybe you haven't updated since 2008. | 23:19 |
| metalfan_ | WhyteWolf, tks? | 23:19 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: are you using xemacs or console emacs | 23:19 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, can't find ~test2 | 23:20 |
| metalfan_ | MenZa, no | 23:20 |
| |f| | anyone? | 23:20 |
| WhyteWolf | Thanks | 23:20 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, i'm using emacs, not xemacs | 23:20 |
| MenZa | metalfan_→ It's the best I can suggest. | 23:20 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: it would be test2~ | 23:20 |
| metalfan_ | WhyteWolf, thx is the shortcut | 23:20 |
| glaksmono | thebackwash, it got GUI | 23:20 |
| thebackwash | or #test2# | 23:20 |
| oCean_ | happy-dude: sorry, I don't know. You could try to create a link called libxul.so.0d to the actual /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.8/libxul.so | 23:20 |
| glaksmono | can't find it either | 23:20 |
| WhyteWolf | Ham radio speak easier in morse code | 23:20 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: make sure you use the save feature to save a file | 23:20 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: honestly | 23:20 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: emacs is overrated | 23:21 |
| _Brun0_ | Anyone help: I changed some compiz settings using the GUI and now my program windows are placed initially with the title bar out of the screen. I have to move windows back to screen area using Alt+Drag everytime. How can I fix that? | 23:21 |

| blue112 | How can I create a vfat filesystem on my device ? | 23:21 |
| blue112 | (actually, fat32) | 23:21 |
| glaksmono | i thought that gedit is much easier to use lol.. | 23:21 |
| themiddleman | I'm trying to install jaunty on ext4, I have a partition formatted with it but in the installer, in the manual partitioning there is no ext4 option | 23:22 |
| oskar- | blue112: mkfs.vfat -F 32 | 23:22 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: yeah for simple text editing, definitely | 23:22 |
| blue112 | I'm trying. | 23:22 |
| taz | i try to bet 8.10 to 9.04 i been try and but couldnt get upgrade or update | 23:22 |
| happy-dude | oCean_:: hm ... my /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.8/ directory does not have a libxul.so file [o.O] ... shall I reinstall xulrunner? | 23:22 |
| blue112 | Fine, it seems to work :) | 23:22 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: if you want a lightweight environment which lets you remotely connect to another machine via ssh then it's good | 23:22 |
| oCean_ | themiddleman: since jaunty is still beta, all discussions/issues go in channel #ubuntu+1 please | 23:23 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: but i believe it's more out of sentimentality for the old days that people cling so tightly to emacs | 23:23 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: not that it doesn't definitely have its merits | 23:24 |
| oCean_ | happy-dude: I don't know, my xulrunner-1.9 has. | 23:24 |
| happy-dude | oCean_ :: the terminal command for reinstall is sudo apt-get reinstall xulrunner-1.9 right? | 23:25 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: it's good if you become proficient in the command line tools that are available | 23:25 |
| glaksmono | kk, thanks a lot thebackwash | 23:25 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono: np | 23:26 |

| |PaperTiger| | XenoPhoenix, how do I remove config? | 23:29 |
| oCean_ | !panels | |PaperTiger| | 23:29 |
| ubottu | |PaperTiger|: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 23:29 |
| cory8092 | poppa: open terminal and do "ifconfig" without teh quote pastebin.com your results | 23:29 |
| XenoPhoenix | |PaperTiger|, you can use: rm -r ~/.gconf/apps/panel | 23:29 |
| glaksmono | how do you switch workspace? i can't click the workspace switcher for some reason | 23:29 |
| happy-dude | oCean_ :: ah, I've found it, how can I make a link to it/ correct the existing link? | 23:29 |
| cory8092 | poppa: also whats your manufacturer for your wireless card | 23:29 |

| oCean_ | happy-dude: well, it really is a long shot, this way. However creating the link: "ln -s /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.0.8/libxul.so /usr/lib/libxul.so.0d" | 23:30 |

| Lint01 | patapouf_: no, try forums | 23:43 |
| |PaperTiger| | XenoPhoenix, I've moved from a Windows Dual-boot to a full Ubuntu install | 23:43 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono_: i might consider trying xcompmgr and other such utilities | 23:43 |
| glaksmono_ | ah kk.. | 23:43 |
| oCean_ | patapouf_: if you have an ubuntu-related technical question, this is the place | 23:44 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono_: you can get a composited desktop and drop shadows without having to whore out your graphics card | 23:44 |
| Cl0p1n | I could actually use some help: Im currently looking on some files from a DVD, and appearently the files (the icons of the files) have got some kind cross in the upper right corner, what does that mean? | 23:44 |
| Ienorand | gopp: I got problems recently with the 180.37 driver and the 180.44 getting jumbled up, removing all nvidia packages and then reinstalling the same driver seemed to work for me... | 23:44 |

| patapouf_ | So, here my question then. Witch kernel module I'm supposed to have to support my bluethoot headset ? | 23:45 |

| thebackwash | glaksmono_: it should come with it | 23:45 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono_: ok then try sudo apt-get install xcompmgr | 23:46 |
| glaksmono_ | ah i got it | 23:46 |
| glaksmono_ | yeah | 23:46 |
| crdlb | glaksmono_: xcompmgr shouldn't be used except as a last resort | 23:46 |
| Cl0p1n | oskar-: Could that be the reason why I can't open the .exe in Wine? (Trying to install WoW Lich King) | 23:46 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono_: i was going to say what crdlb just said | 23:46 |
| crdlb | glaksmono_: if you're using metacity, there's a builtin XRender compositing manager thant you can enable in gconf-editor | 23:46 |
| W4N73D | hey whats up room im having some problems with ubuntu... its not picking up any devices such as mp3's flash cards or flash drives. can anyone help me? | 23:47 |
| thebackwash | glaksmono_: it's buggy and unmaintained, and there are better ways to composite, but i forget what they are | 23:47 |
| oskar- | Cl0p1n: starting a file in wine requires read and not write permissions... check, if you have these | 23:47 |
| gartral | oskar-: depends, it might be a game... | 23:48 |
