[00:03] ActionParsnip: hmm, or maybe it was, nevermind [00:03] khc: ;) [00:03] acidicbase, Probably some program that doesn't play well with pulseaudio. You can try forcing everything to use pulseaudio or disable pulseaudio entirely [00:04] Cl0p1n: copy installer.exe to oyur home dir and run it from there [00:04] it should at least tell me why [00:04] any1 have any experience with esd?

[00:06] gartral, There are some ( very few now ) that simply cannot use pulseaudio, I think that wine can but I am not sure how buggy it is ( as I understand it though any bugs would effect only wine, and not the rest of the apps using pulse ) but needs to be configured to use pulseaudio [00:07] or, put differently, hw do i start memtest86+ at all?

[00:08] cory8092: if its an older IPod.. use Rockbox! :P [00:08] Piet: reboot, press esc to view grub menu, its there [00:08] crdlb: is this the only usable way? [00:08] ActionParsnip: thanks [00:08] ok new developments on the postfix mail deal anyone actually use this mutt client that can help?

[00:10] I need to downgrade package cryptsetup, on an encrypted computer, i was just going to remove it via synaptic and then compile the version i need from source...while also 'make distclean'...is there a better way to do it? [00:11] gartral, I am not sure which is the best way for wine. You can try running "asoundconf set-pulseaudio". That should prevent wine from grabbing the sound card from pulse but it may not work, if it doesn't you can try setting wine to use OSS in winecfg and start wine with padsp, or try just setting wine to use esd which is compatible with pulse [00:11] ActionParsnip, sensors gives me a bad value [00:11] I'm trying to install Rise of Nations under Wine and it says that it has a problem starting pidgen.dll. Is there a workaround or is this a common problem? [00:11] ActionParsnip, it tells me that the temp is about 54 degrees. a reboot and check in bios tells me 40 degrees [00:11] gartral, By may not work with the asoundconf set-pulseaudio I mean that wine may not be able to play sound, it almost certainly will prevent wine from grabbing the sound card [00:12] Jordan_U: part of it, is that i have two cardsd, and the intergrated one really doesnt work, but everything wants to use that [00:12] nasso: thats all i got [00:13] ActionParsnip, okay. thanks anyway [00:13] JorgeJorgesson: try channel #winehq [00:14] gartral, You might just need to set the correct sound card as default with "asoundconf list" ( to find the names of the cards ) and "asoundconf set-default-card " [00:14] hi all i ahve a problem with nxclient... i am runing ubuntu 8.10 and i have installed the .deb nxclient and in trying to connect to my ubuntu 8.10 server desktop but when the server starts to load the screen closes and it disconects but this works fine if i run it from my xp machine? [00:15] it dose the same if i try to connect from remote desktop viewer from ubuntu [00:16] hi. i spilled a liquid on my new eee pc. any hopes a technician can fix it? [00:18] jabbaJOE: probably, try asking in #hardware or #eeepc [00:19] Jordan_U: ive blacklisted the internal, and it still insists, on being the main card, even though it isnt really loaded [00:19] gartral, Have you tried asoundconf set-default-card ?

Jauny has an expanded driver package database. Ok, so all but this work. so its specific to the usb drive? [01:10] mrwes: any complaints about 64-bit problems/compatibility issues? [01:10] sagaci: I do "sudo update-manager -d" in terminal [01:11] neruda, hrmm...64 bit seems pretty stable now, dunno what gains you'll get from it unless you have like 4gb of RAM [01:11] jasballz: Yes, I absolutely think it is specific to this drive. [01:11] Sagaci: make sure you have KDE installed first "sudo apt-get install kde" [01:11] ok, and how do i get applications on my taskbar so i can switch betwen them [01:11] mrwes, so ur not really sure on anything else? my main goal is to kick off vlc remotely via ssh and then forward the audio with it [01:11] anyone install mandriva on the acer aspire one aoa150 ? about to go and buy one, want to make sure it works [01:12] mrwes: even though i'm testing it at home it might make its way onto a production system later that'll be maxed out as far as ram is concerned [01:12] mrwes: that's why i ask about 64-bit [01:12] Hello [01:12] phocus: im running ubuntu linux on acer aspire 4720z, i don't know about mandriva [01:12] or any distro, lol [01:12] Swede: well, maybe google your drive make and ubuntu and see what comes up [01:12] Sagaci: did you lose your lower GNOME panel or something? [01:13] Sagaci: theres a number of dock packages. I use cairo [01:13] grkblood13, you can stream with VLC, but mt-daapd will do the same...sorta [01:13] jasballz: One strange thing is that when I put the memory in one slot then lsusb give me a name of something that wasn't there before. But when I put the memory in another usb-port, then lsusb doesn't show the info. [01:13] guys!who are familiar with wumi [01:13] because i have a question [01:13] Hey, does anyone know of an application that will let me (from the command line, not a GUI) take an MP3 file and export a copy of it that is only 20 seconds from a specific starting point? E.g. from 60 seconds to 80 seconds, export clipped.mp3 [01:13] neruda, how much ram do you have? [01:13] mrwes: so you recommend 8.04 (64bit) server edition to get an accurate picture? [01:13] hi, i just inserted a command using crontab -e, can anyone tell me where this command is stored? [01:13] it's not in /etc/crontab as i expected [01:13] shingouz: i think mplayer will do it [01:13] neruda, are you planning on running a server? headless per se [01:13] mrwes: 4 on home, 16 at work [01:14] mrwes: sr admin wants to move to ubuntu eventually [01:14] neruda, 64 bit then [01:14] any help me please? who used wumi to install ubuntu here? [01:14] l7: in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/YourUserName [01:14] jasballz: Another strange thing is that it sometimes used to work the first 10 times I connected it, but then suddenly it stopped showing up. The drive worked sometimes, sometimes not, but now it never works. [01:14] l7: however, the preferred way to "see" it is "crontab -l" [01:15] hi. can anyone tell me why my SATA disk (ok, 2.5" but still?) has about 2.5mbyte/s read speed max? hdparm -I http://pastebin.com/m26c60fce here. This is an AMD SB700 SATA controller running Ubuntu Hardy, 2.6.24-23-generic kernal, x864_64. [01:15] neruda, I run the 32 bit on my home server [01:15] How can i see wich internet DNSs i got? [01:15] Ropechoborra: cat /etc/resolv.conf.auto [01:15] neruda, you want a good how to? [01:15] Ropechoborra: er, /etc/resolv.conf [01:15] LSD200, Thanks :) [01:15] oCean_: aha, i see it now, thanks :) [01:16] mrwes: you probably don't utilize the server aspect as much though right? [01:16] neruda, yah correct, mainly file and print server [01:16] neruda, http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-server-ubuntu8.04-lts [01:16] USB flash disk to make it bootable does it need to be vfat16 or 32 [01:17] I don't feel safe using ubuntu [01:17] thefeds, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [01:17] thefeds: you're just sturing the bot [01:17] swebe: that's goofy. It sounds like maybe Ubuntu is listing or recognizing all your ports. Whats your window manager? Kde, gnome...? [01:17] mrwes: thanks, that looks great [01:17] because of the SSL keys exploit [01:17] neruda, sure. np [01:17] thefeds, fixed long ago [01:18] who's to say it won't happen again [01:18] jesus [01:18] thefeds, stop it. [01:18] raVen1: what's wumi? [01:18] Amyone-------------> USB flash disk to make it bootable does it need to be fat16 or 32 [01:18] neruda, BTW...it's rock solid :) [01:18] heh [01:18] ugliefrog: I don't think it makes a difference [01:18] I'm trying to use gcc, and it says unrecognized option when i Copy paste from a file written from someone else... [01:18] gcc -O2 -o ventriloctrl ventriloctrl.c -lX11 [01:18] Shirow: so you're looking for a sound clipper? thats neat. IDK, did you try google? tell me what you find. [01:18] l7: what do you mean "where the command is stored"? [01:19] jasballz, yes, that's what I'm looking for. Used google, everything I found is gui based. Guess maybe I am looking wrong. Thanks for the tip though. [01:19] raVen1: what's wumi? [01:19] scunizi: Well dangit...this simple task isnt working out for me [01:19] nvm just figured out from pasting that the -lX11 was done wrong [01:19] Swede: when did it first work? and what has changed since it has stopped (like what have you installed or modded?) if youre really desperate it sounds like a clean install will fix [01:19] jasballz: i wanted to see which text file my new cron job was written to. it turns out it was in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ === Commie_Cary is now known as Lenin_Cat [01:20] chx: hmmm, I have SATA and I don't have a problem. IDK if 2.5 mbytes is fast but I'm pretty sure that I can ge tup to 10 [01:20] thefeds: y not? [01:21] mrwes: i'm coming from a gentoo background where pkg mgmt is derived from FreeBSD's "ports", how well does ubuntu resolve package dependencies etc when upgrading to newer versions of programs? [01:21] Shirow: why does it have to be from terminal? just wondering. [01:21] l7: nice [01:21] neruda: very well. [01:21] jasballz, because I need to script it to parse 45 gigs worth of MP3s [01:21] hey guys [01:21] why this doesn't work [01:21] glaksmono@glaksmono-laptop:~$ deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free [01:21] bash: deb: command not found [01:21] flannel: experiences? [01:21] glaksmono: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:21] ok FloodBot2 [01:21] glaksmono: that isn't a command. You're supposed to add it to /etc/apt/sources.list [01:21] neruda: pretty sure that if you run update-manager it takes care of itself, but if you download from repositories you have to find depencies and download those too [01:22] Shirow: what for? [01:22] jasballz, creating short clips of files for my website. [01:22] galksmono: bad source? did you try wget? [01:22] neruda: We don't do ports though. Just use the repos and you won't have any issues. Ubuntu isn't a rolling release type thing. Each version of Ubuntu has a set version of each package, which only gets fixes, not upgrades. [01:22] http://smekaren.mybrute.com [01:22] neruda, well if your using the apt-get package manager all dependencies will be met [01:22] glaksmono: sounds like theres nothing there there's another thing, ekiga if you're looking for voip [01:22] jasbaltz: gentoo portage system would automatically find and download and compile those dependencies (which is sometime not the best thing) does pkg mgmt in ubuntu compare? [01:23] flannel: i see [01:23] neruda: When you try and install something, it automatically installs the depends, yes. [01:23] flannel: good [01:23] jasballz: Well, it worked sometimes from the very first beginning. Just after I bought it. Then I formatted it but after a while it stopped. It didn't work well from start. Sometimes it did, sometimes it didn't. Now it doesn't work at all. [01:23] Shirow: ahh. Thats nice, i might do that for something...thats why you want terminal, right, to automate it? [01:23] jasballz, right, I want to run a script that parses through directories, finds all the mp3s, creates a 20 second 64k clip and outputs it to my web server [01:24] that's what I said :) [01:24] heh [01:24] Anothe rquestion. Is it possible to use a portable mp3-player that Ubuntu recognize as a mp3-player as a USB drive to boot from? [01:24] 8.04 server download is a LiveCD right? [01:24] hi, i have Gateway tablet CX200X with ubuntu 8.04 but the stylus does not work [01:24] neruda: hmmm, I don't think theres a pkg mgmt binary, but I do know that using apt-get or software sources or update manager takes care of them, but not if you download from http depositories thru firefox [01:24] where can i find the driver? [01:24] neruda, don't think it's a LIVE CD, no === vij_ is now known as v-p [01:25] Swede: so, did you format in win or ubuntu? other than formatting it did you do anything to your distro? like install new packages? is it run consistently on other computers? [01:25] jasballz: I formated it in both Ubuntu and then Windows. [01:25] shirow: thats pretty neat. Are you hosting mp3s clips? neato. hmmm, well there are ways...let me think [01:26] how do you uninstall program? [01:26] using command line? [01:26] mrwes, jas: gentoo has what's called a "portage tree" which is just a list of currently installed packages and their interconnectedness, so a sysad can look before leaping and also get a concise picture of what's on the system, any counterpart in ubuntu? [01:26] swede: yeah, Ive had ubuntu recognize mp3 players as harddrives. But idk if you could boot from it. Probably [01:26] glaksmono: sudo apt-get remove [01:26] jasballz, I run an Internet radio station, looking for a way to add low quality 20 second clips to my request system [01:26] my cat /proc/bus/input/devices show two of the same mice and two of the same keyboard i only have one of each hooked up ... how to fix? [01:26] mrwes: shit i wanted a LiveCD [01:26] jasballz: I installed updates and maybe some other software, can't remeber, but something got installed. It didn't stop working right after an install though. [01:26] Jolinatum: neato. IDK if ubuntu has tablet capabilities. Prolly? Maybe google tablet, packages, and ubuntu or touch screen and tell me what you find. [01:26] glaksmono: or ... purge to remove settings as well [01:27] jasballz: It runs good on Windows XP, no problem at all. [01:27] Swede: obviously your problem started after formatting it in windows. Can you back up the data and reformat in ubuntu on next good read? [01:27] swede: not the best solution, but I suggest maybe booting from a livecd and seeing if it recognizes it [01:27] Jolinatum: it does support tablets.. depends on the tablet as to how easy or difficult it will be [01:27] neruda: it is, virtually all linux (installation) cd's are "live" cd's [01:27] glaksmono: there's add/remove in applications [01:27] is it possible to get the new 9.04 notification icon style in 8.10? [01:28] my cat /proc/bus/input/devices show two of the same mice and two of the same keyboard i only have one of each hooked up ... how to fix? [01:28] kk thanks jasballz [01:28] thanks Ienorand [01:28] ocean: thanks i was trying to think what it was if not a LiveCD (thinking back to Slackware 1.1 install many years ago) [01:28] jasballz: About boot from mp3-player. I want to reinstall Linpus on my netbook. The mp3 player have 512MB of memory but the Linpus guide says Linpus needs 1GB. Do you think it will work? === chris__ is now known as Can0CCAC [01:28] neruda: that's a nice feature. I may want to port that or have something for my ubuntu distro buddhabuntu at buddhabuntu.8m.net ... hmmm, idk there's synaptec package manager but its not a tree thing. Anyone else know? Ask around, and plz google and let me know what you find. I dont thinks [01:29] neruda, yah I don't think the server editions come as a LIVE CD [01:29] gparted wont make a usb bootable right?...is it a terminal command then [01:29] scunizi: thanks. i checked gateway website but there is no linux driver for the pen [01:29] ocean: how does a sys ad or power user get a complete list of currently installed programs/libraries etc [01:29] jasballz, I think mencoder might do it actually [01:29] mrwes: then what is it? [01:30] jasballz: [17:21] chx: hmmm, I have SATA and I don't have a problem. IDK if 2.5 mbytes is fast but I'm pretty sure that I can ge tup to 10 <= i would say 2.5 mbytes is unbearable slow? [01:30] shirow: I like it. Do you have any Macs? If you could write it to a CDRW or DVD RW and pop it in a mac, you could write a quick 'macro' with automator. Automator's ok, sometimes itworks, its alittle goofy. IDK if theres an analogue in ubuntu...let me check [01:30] mrwes; im downloading an iso [01:30] does anyone still use windows here? [01:30] neruda: commandline: "dpkg -l" to list all your packages. "dpkg -L packagename" to list content of a package [01:30] what is the preferred way to do a dist upgrade to jaunty nowadays? [01:30] neruda, goog luck! [01:30] mrwes: i assume its got to boot\ [01:30] thefeds: unfortunately, yes [01:30] jasballz, nah, I need to be able to run it frequently anyway so don't wanna have to move the files.. I am trying with mencoder right now, it outputs a file but its 0bytes, not sure why [01:30] jasballz: The mp3-player use FAT16. [01:30] thefeds: I'm only running Ubu off a usb stick so yes, core is still win [01:31] Swede: I knew that much. Its pretty obvious to me that you modded something on accident that makes it no longer work. Can you google ubuntu drivers for it and tell me what you find? [01:31] jasballz: Maybe the USB memory have to be formatted in FAT16, not FAT32? [01:31] bernhard, #ubuntu+1 for jaunty and see the topic when you join [01:31] neruda, yah it's bootable :P [01:31] Nexuiz 2.5 Is out! :D Get it now! http://alientrap.org/nexuiz/ http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4821677 [01:31] Jordan_U: ty [01:31] * neruda is relieved [01:31] bernhard, np [01:31] ok [01:31] heh [01:32] Shirow: that'd be nice...google mp3 parser ubuntu , maybe include package and tell me what you find [01:32] jasballz: Well, I don't think so. The usb memory started to fail on three different computers, two Ubuntu 8.10 and one Ubuntu 8.04, so then it had to be something that comes with automatic updates? [01:32] ocean: thanks for the command btw [01:32] damn, this has always been a problem for me [01:32] i couldn't setup Skype correctly [01:33] i could hear but i can't record my voice [01:33] jasballz: I can use another usb memory without any problems on two of the computers (one 8.10 and one 8.04) [01:33] Swede: hmmm, obviously not. I recommend peanut linux, or the smallest linux you can find, I know one will fit... there are other things... [01:33] Shirow: ok, tell me how it goes! [01:34] jasballz: Well, I tought that Linpus say 1GB but 512Mb maybe willl work too? [01:34] chx: hmm, IDK about unbearably slow...I mean, it depends on your expectations, I know that for me 2.5 mybts can transfer 8 g in about 30 min to an hour, thats pretty fast... [01:34] could anybody help me? [01:34] !ask | glaksmono [01:34] thefeds: I virtualize windows and am going to install it temporarily to try spherexp [01:34] glaksmono: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [01:35] !skype | glaksmono [01:35] glaksmono: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga [01:35] neruda: there's automatix, but IDK...what's the package you ran in your other linux? maybe you could easily port to ubuntu? idk [01:35] bernhard: I do in terminal "sudo update-manager -d" [01:35] bazhang, i'm reading that already [01:35] i need help ;_; [01:35] neruda, automatix? [01:35] Shirow: have you seen http://www.wains.be/index.php/2007/11/23/cut-mp3-under-linux-ubuntu/ yet ? it mentions a command mp3cut inside package poc-streamer ... [01:35] !ask | Taijiquan [01:35] Taijiquan: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [01:35] jas: ebuild [01:35] what's your problem Taijiquan? [01:36] I'm out! [01:36] jasballz: I have to use Linpus on my 512MB or get my usb to work, because I have to use the distro on my netbook. [01:36] jas: emerge, eix [01:36] jasballz, i don't think automatix exists for ubuntu anymore [01:36] jasballz: No, there isn't automatix. Don't ever suggest that. [01:36] jasballz: [01:36] Swede, how does linpus relate to ubuntu? [01:36] jasballz: well, the problem is , i cant watch an 1080p film with that [01:36] while doing ./configure for Warzone 2100 source I get this error: configure: error: Package requirements (openal >= 0.0.8) were not met: [01:36] jas: all tools that compromised "portage" in gentoo [01:36] comprised [01:36] jasballz: well, i will make a try with my mp3-player, but I still want the usb flash drive to work on my Ubuntu computers. [01:36] Taijiquan: did you try installing those dependencies? [01:36] yeah [01:36] they're already installed [01:37] although my original sentence might be considered a freudian slip to gentoo haters [01:37] lol [01:37] Kålrot...ehm Swede: Linpus Lite seems to require only 512mb: http://www.linpus.com/products_1.php?pid=4&gid=1 [01:37] Taijiquan: have you checked if Warzone 2100 is available in a .deb anywhere? [01:38] no i will now [01:38] hey, anobody knows bash/sed here? I need some help... === justin_ is now known as badpenguin86 [01:38] Taijiquan: that is usually a good idea to do first [01:39] how do I figure out what version of Ubuntu I'm running? [01:39] i think it's the latest [01:39] Roland-: Bits and pieces, what are you after? [01:39] is it 8.10?? [01:39] I need some help I need to create a script that should extrat ip adresses from a file with this format: http://pastebin.com/m6e79b733 [01:39] Taijiquan: lsb_release -a [01:39] In the jaunty installer Oslo is in the wrong timezone (GMT+2), should be +1, has this been fixed? [01:39] basicaly is a simple thing to do but I don't know anything about scripting.

[01:40] glitsj16, thanks for the link, I will check it out [01:40] Does anyone know why I would have files that I can see in Nautilus and not in BASH? [01:40] Guest55096: starts with "."?

[01:41] iceroot: That gives the same output as ls -al [01:42] Swede: its your usb drive [01:42] swede: idk, try linpus. I don't think that it will work [01:42] please help xorg.conf wot change always [01:42] swede: dvd-rs are only 5$ for 10 === Commie_Cary is now known as Lenin_Cat [01:42] hi is there anyone on here who is like a ubuntu god [01:43] need help badly [01:43] !anyone | linux_ [01:43] sorry but please help xorg.conf wot change always empty [01:43] linux_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [01:43] bazhang: what i meant is really that i my voice doesn't come out on the "test call" [01:43] linux_: just ask your real question [01:43] hi guys ive rented an ovh server with a static kernel could someone direct me to some info on how to recompile to the vanilla ubuntu modular kernel ? [01:43] Guest55096: give an example which file is not shown in bash [01:43] some1normal, xorg.conf is used for hardly anything, atleast that I know of, in 8.10 [01:43] Roland-: it is allways the second "word" ? « awk '{print $2}' file » [01:43] ok i have ubuntu 8.10 installed and i cannot get it to boot, it wont boot using hd or using live cd [01:44] anyone have any ideas what to do [01:44] glitsj16, that worked perfectly, thanks a ton! now I just have to find something to fade in the audio at the beginning and end :) [01:44] linux_: ha ha, what do you need help with? [01:44] !kernel | linny1 [01:44] linny1: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [01:44] linux_: thats weird. how did you install it? [01:44] The file is called Atomix, Nautilus was opened from the command line with "nautilus . &" and the directory was listed with "ls -al" [01:44] !kernel | linny1 [01:44] I've just built the file [01:44] linux_: did you check the md5 checksums? maybe you got a bad iso? [01:44] i installed it using live cd [01:45] i cant boot into any of the kernels, yeah i checked the md [01:45] linux_: but if you have vista download bcdedit and add an entry for neolinux and see if that works [01:45] linux_, do you get any error msgs ? [01:45] no boycott it just hangs [01:45] linux_: So the livecd booted? or did you use xp to install? you cant boot into linux if you installed in vista or higher. [01:46] linux_, does it get past trying to boot into it, does it hang while its loading? [01:46] shows the boot from hdd 0,0 then hangs from there === v-p is now known as codelearner [01:46] Alright I need somebody to PM me if they know how to use and setup proftpd and I really would preffer it to be PM than public so if anyone knows please PM me. [01:46] jasballz: I don't have a CD/DVD drive on my netbook. That's why I have to use usb flash drive too boot from. [01:47] cant even boot ubuntu using live cd, im currently usin different distros live cd just to try and c if anyone can help [01:47] linux_, are you booting any other OS's? [01:47] iceroot: Interestingly enough, when I do "touch Atomix" I get another file called Atomix (two as seen by Nautilus). [01:47] Roland-: ooops i forgot about port numbers.... this time with cut « cut -d' ' -f2 test.txt | cut -d: -f1 » [01:47] no waffle, just ubuntu [01:47] jasballz: And I also want to use my completely new flash drive on my Ubuntu computers, not only on Windows. [01:47] the ubuntu method of kernel update/recompiling documented in the wiki will that work even tho i dont have a standard ubuntu kernel atm ? [01:47] Roland-: test.txt is the file in question [01:48] Anybody have some experience of a-data usb flash drive on Ubuntu 8.10? [01:48] linux_, did you format your hard drive? if its hanging right after the boot, then it could be a problem with the boot sector. [01:48] linux_, did you say you can't boot off the livecd anymore? [01:48] linux_: If you can't boot the liveCD, have you tried the "check CD for defects' or "verify integrity of the cd" options on the CD boot menu? [01:48] yeah waffle and yeah flannel [01:48] linux_: And what happened? [01:48] the liveCD should start unless it's damaged [01:48] linux_: i would use the base install to get a terminal the use apt to install the desktop [01:49] i find it strange how i cant even boot from live cd [01:49] linux_: did you check your bios to make sure booting from cd is enabled [01:49] linux_, do you have any other liveCDs to try to boot from ? [01:49] linux_, when you say you can't even boot from the livecd, do you mean you can't even get to the menu, or you can't get to the live ubuntu from the CD? [01:49] sorry waffle got confused, i havent formatted, trying to see if there is a way of fixing first [01:49] yeah number7, i currently using opensuse now just to get online [01:50] so this CD works [01:50] linux_: it's entirely likely that the Ubuntu CD you have isn't a good CD. Try reburning, verify the md5, etc. [01:50] linux_:sounds like bad media [01:50] then I guess you have a bad image [01:50] yup opensuse works [01:50] yh, or just a bad disc [01:50] :) we all agree [01:51] :( lol there is nothing else you guys can think of trying at the boot screen or editing on the boot parameters [01:51] hi all. how do I make sure I have the latest possible packages? i want zend-framework 1.7.8, but apt-cache search gives me 1.5.3....

[01:54] Shirow: very welcome, sox really is a gem indeed [01:54] jasballz: network boot, I mean? [01:54] kpuljek, you could terminate the dhclient process. [01:54] linux_, check the iso image again, if it's good then burn it and reinstall [01:54] unop: when i terminate it, my net goes down O.o [01:55] unop: it used to work like that in ubunu 8.10, but in 9.04 it kills my net [01:55] kpuljek, that's strange [01:55] I have ubuntu running on my PC, my wife has Ubuntu live running on hers right now but we can't see each other on the network to transfer files between our computers? Anyone know a quick fix? [01:55] kpuljek: i think #ubuntu+1 is for 904 [01:55] lighttitan, scp is the easiest to setup [01:56] guys, i'm using embedded microphone on the webcam on my laptop, would that be a problem for Skype in Ubuntu?

[01:56] i'm wondering if anybody could help me? [01:57] Jordan_U: scp? How do I install it, I don't see it in Synaptic? Do I need to DL it and install manually? [01:57] im moving files unzipped from a 7z, ive tried unzipping onto the xp part as well, and still missing alot of files [01:57] nigtv: do you get any errors retuened in the terminal [01:57] no, said everything is okay [01:57] I cant seem to boot my ubuntu off live cd.. when it does that thing where the orange box bounces back and forth before booting, then it actually loads, it stops right before the 3rd group and the disk stops spinning :< [01:57] nigtv: try mv or cp then unzip [01:57] the disk is fine, as it worked before [01:57] tried both of those [01:57] cp and mv, as root and as normal [01:58] hold on you know what [01:58] lighttitan, No, install openssh-server on the computer you want to get files from and then run: "scp /path/to/file remote_username@remote_ip:/path/to/destination" [01:58] kpuljek, i'm not sure this behaviour your experiencing is normal .. can you request your admin extend the DHCP lease for your machine? or use a static assignment? [01:58] hey i upgraded my ubuntu to 8.10 and reatarted...after i login i get this error http://pastebin.com/m1c5fc8f8...i restarted the system more than once now but still i get this error...can anyone help me [01:58] aha i think i just figured it out whats the syntax for recursive move again [01:58] nigtv: so are you losing files in the cp or mv or on the unzip ? [01:58] mv -t dest source [01:58] right [01:58] -R [01:58] well i dont think im doing recursive mv [01:58] that would explain it [01:58] lighttitan, I think you can also setup samba graphically and that might be easier for you but I don't personally have much experience with it [01:58] unop: i can't request anything from him :S ... i just need to make sure that, once my lease expires, dhclient doesn't swarm my syslog with requests, so that he doesn't disconnect me [01:58] so mv -R dest source [01:59] i think so [01:59] man mv [01:59] righteo ;) [01:59] tx [01:59] Jordan_U ok I will try, thanks for your help [01:59] lighttitan, np [01:59] unop: i had the same issue with ubuntu 7.10, 8.04, 8.10 and now 9.04 [02:00] unop: but previous ubuntu's did it since the first connection, and this one does it after the lease expires [02:00] I cant seem to boot my ubuntu off live cd.. when it does that thing where the orange box bounces back and forth before booting, then it actually loads, it stops right before the 3rd group and the disk stops spinning :< [02:00] the disk is fine, as it worked before [02:00] Harry``: maybe it's not fine anymore? [02:00] kpuljek, what could have happened? I didnt touch it [02:01] Harry`` yea hes right in 99% of these cases its bad disk [02:01] Harry``, i have discs die for no reason al the time [02:01] glitsj16, just got exactly what I needed with sox+lame, i really appreciate your help, it's working perfectly and very easy to implement :) [02:01] Harry``: i don't know, just guessing [02:01] hey i upgraded my ubuntu to 8.10 and reatarted...after i login i get this error http://pastebin.com/m1c5fc8f8...i restarted the system more than once now but still i get this error...can anyone help me [02:01] okay [02:01] well I didnt even move it [02:01] it was in [02:01] working fine [02:01] Harry``: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[02:04] okay, there is no -R option [02:04] i guess there is no way to recursively mv, but uhm [02:04] maybe if i find -exec mv [02:04] but im thinking that would put them all into one big directory [02:04] nigtv, why would you want to recursively mv something .. if you move the parent dir, you move all children anyway [02:04] well no, not exactly [02:05] ive unzipped this 7z, its about 8.6gb, otherwise i would love to try things out [02:05] but it takes about an hour whether it works or not [02:05] and im moving it from the ubuntu part to the xp part [02:05] even as sudo, mv only moves with depth 1 [02:05] nigtv, so, wait, you want to move all files in subdirectories into a single destination? [02:06] no [02:06] mv and preserve path [02:06] nigtv, mv folder NewLocation [02:06] and if i find -exec mv /media/disk/blahblah [02:06] no, tried that [02:06] doesnt work [02:06] hey i upgraded my ubuntu to 8.10 and reatarted...after i login i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/143792/...i restarted the system more than once now but still i get this error...can anyone help me [02:06] not like you think it would [02:06] PerryArmstrong: hmm i found a thread on forums http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=577946 [02:06] nigtv, mv is recursive [02:07] well, then why isnt it moving recursively on my machine, argusususus [02:07] nigtv, but it moves the whole folder, with all file paths [02:07] nigtv, find -depth path/to/somedir | cpio -pdumv path/to/another_dir [02:07] linny1; thanks..i am checking that thred [02:07] *thread [02:08] nigtvit could be the way the win drive is mounted is it the first ime you mounted it ? is it ntfs etc [02:08] lemme check that out [02:08] yea, its mounted the same time every time [02:08] by me by hand === XenoP is now known as XenoPhoenix [02:09] unop: i might need a little more specific example, as i cant really just try it, you know? because its 9~gb, maybe in pm, i could give you more specific information [02:09] This is insane.

[03:07] or is it 256 [03:07] PerryArmstrong, no you should create a directory that is empty and give the "path" to it [03:07] networking question. I have a gigabit NIC. ethtool sees it's capable of 1000 mbit. It's only negotiating to 100 mbit. Cat6 cable and gigabit switch on the other end. Any ideas? You can see this thread for further details. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-networking-3/gig-nic-only-connection-100-mbit.-connecting-to-gig-switch.-716341/ [03:07] SantiG: Yes, it should support amd64. Intel specifies that on their product pages. Look up your model. Any recent processor (2004 onward?) should support it. Don't listen to the 128 bit thing.... [03:08] anyways the core2 quad can run 64bit stuff [03:08] PerryArmstrong, eg /home/yourusername/windowsharddrive [03:08] hehe well thank you very much [03:08] hwilde, then explain what you're trying to do. [03:08] i'm changin my widnows for linux ubuntu [03:08] When I play a mp3 totem crashes [03:08] i want to play kasteroids. [03:08] it tends to be called amd64 because the were first [03:08] I think I explained my position pretty clearly [03:08] hwilde, from what? a tarball, a .deb? [03:08] psywiped: actually it's because the 64-bit code is owned and licensed by AMD. [03:09] PerryArmstrong, sorry I can be back in at most ten minutes. [03:09] hwilde: it was sporatic, try limiting it to one line [03:09] do u think it is a good idea changing from windows vista to linux ubuntu 8.10 [03:09] for others to help you [03:09] durt is not helping [03:09] huuf so they were first? [03:09] i don't ownz anybody [03:09] SantiG, changing from Vista to anything is a good thing. [03:09] hey guys, am not able to start ubuntu in gnome, can someone help me fix it?

[03:11] thefeds listen to this podcast http://goinglinux.com/shownotes.html#glp055 [03:12] thefeds, I'd recommend reading up on Samba on the web. Look for setups in help.ubuntu.com [03:12] spaceBARbarian: Define nothing. [03:12] thefeds: not samba server, not by default [03:12] !samba > thefeds [03:12] thefeds, please see my private message [03:12] thefeds, no you need to install it [03:12] how do I install it [03:12] !samba > thefeds [03:12] apt-get install samba [03:12] Huufarted: i ran into a HDD problem due to loose connections in the power cord, some data corrupted [03:12] thefeds: these are all questions you can find by a simple google search, bud. "samba install ubuntu" and "samba setup ubuntu" [03:12] gigabites2: when i moved both acceleration and sensitivity bars to 0 and my mouse is still ridiculously fast [03:12] thefeds listen to this podcast http://goinglinux.com/shownotes.html#glp055 [03:12] Huufarted: once i fixed it, its been working fine but i ran fsck on a mounted partition once [might be a problem?] [03:13] when I play mp3 via totem it crashes any ideas [03:13] thefeds it explains it all for you [03:13] jeeez, are you still seeing issues? Or is the issue that you can't load Gnome? [03:13] Huufarted: no issues now [03:13] exit [03:13] spaceBARbarian: Maybe there's a setting somewhere in x? I'm not sure since they stopped using xorg.conf. [03:13] Huufarted: it was just a loose power cord, i stuck it to place now, i dont get HDD errors anymore [03:13] dcamp25_: you can try running it in a terminal [03:13] oh [03:13] jeeez: so I guess my question is, what problem(s) are you having right now? Or questions? [03:14] ldiamond: get it working? [03:14] hey guys, i have a couple of distros set up on my harddrive and now i want to install xp again (already exists on a partition). but when i boot up the cd it says "setup is inspecting your hardware configuration. i looked this up and apperently linux is causing that. is that possible? [03:14] Huufarted: gnome doesn't start! [03:14] jeeez: any error messages? [03:14] Huufarted: how else can i restart X ? [03:14] Huufarted: i tried KDE too, that doesn't either, but e16 and fluxbox work [03:14] jeeez: sudo apt-get install ubuntu [03:14] i forwarded ports for proftpd, thats all i should do right? [03:14] I have a wireless PCIMIA card. If I plug it in, ubuntu may eventually find it, and it will start working. Is there a command that will cause ubuntu to reload PCI cards and wireless drivers so I don't have to wait. [03:15] spaceBARbarian: the easiest way is to just do this from a terminal (because I'm lazy with describing GUI solutions): sudo reboot (will reboot your computer entirely) [03:15] so nobody knows how to get kasteroids back? I am going to downgrade to 8.04 then [03:15] psywiped: wont that make me lose everything i already got? [03:15] if i upgrade to the juanty beta when it becomes official will i have to change my sources.list or will it just install updates as if i already am using jaunty [03:15] psywiped, not yet, I'm trying to log from Cygwin, but I cant remove the .ssh folder because I dont have permissions [03:15] spaceBARbarian, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart [03:15] jeeez: Try booting into recovery mode in grub and try to repair packages. [03:15] jeeez: no it just installs the gnome desktop [03:15] Huufarted: An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for firefox. Some of your configuration settings may not work properly. <-- replace firefox with most gnome app names [03:15] spaceBARbarian, this will restart gnome display manager [03:15] so just opening ports 20-21 should allow proftpd right? === Richard is now known as Guest42241 [03:16] jasballz: forwarded ports in what, are you trying to allow ftp access to ubuntu from the internet? [03:16] Huufarted: i tried that, dint work! [03:16] jeeez: i now have gnome kde and xfc or somthing like that on my system [03:16] jeeez: I'm not an expert, but it still sounds like you have some filesystem issues. And like psywiped said, his command won't hurt anything. You can try: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop [03:16] hehe that works to ^ [03:17] Huufarted: did that already, no effect! [03:17] when i watch a movie using smb and burn a disc on my ubuntu box it just kills smb how do i fix that? [03:17] jeeez, you did: sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop ?? [03:17] yeah, i tried that a while back [03:17] hello i have a question, i am currently using ubuntu 9.04 with encrypted lvm, i encrypted home also, now i am using vmware and there is disk activity in the machine, it automatically spikes my cpu to 100% all the time resulting in slow performance. [03:17] jeeez: as psywiped said, try: sudo apt-get install ubuntu [03:17] hi! how can i keep my ubuntu from doing ipv6 auto configuration and/or accept configurations from router advertisements? [03:18] hey i am in need of some assistance... How do i install Geektool in Ubuntu 8.10?? [03:18] sudo apt-get install geektool [03:18] madman, you might try #ubuntu+1 [03:18] thx!!

[03:19] I could always make my desktop background a blue screen. [03:20] mdmkolbe: restore it from where? [03:20] Huufarted: yeah thats the first thing i said, that setting doesnt have any reflection on the device for some reason [03:20] I think I have a bug from 9.04b, I unmute my capture from the volume control box, but when I close it, it reverts back to being muted.

[03:21] Windows doesn't use CUPS [03:21] it uses SAMBA [03:21] Huufarted: a file containing the meta-data and the actual file data. that is to say that the meta-data must berecorded inside the backup file as bytes and not as meta-data on the backup file [03:21] psywiped: same error! [03:21] thefeds: windows does not use samba. it uses File and Print Sharing. Linux uses Samba. [03:21] cups is the answer [03:21] thefeds have you listend to the podcast yet? [03:21] duan! [03:22] jeeez are you connected to the net? [03:22] thefeds, you can share a printer from ubuntu to windows by enabling printer sharing on ubuntu and then adding the printer on windows [03:22] psywiped: er how else would i be on IRC? :( [03:22] mdmkolbe: a tar.bz2 file is probably your best bet. /shrug... try looking into rsync as well [03:22] jeeez: if the problem was on another PC. We're only trying to help you. [03:22] jeeez another computer like i do [03:22] rsync rocks. [03:22] Mikaze: Oh so true. :) [03:23] thefeds, when you add the printer, you'll have to enter the ip address like http://192.168.0.2/printers/DeskJet_882C or something like that [03:23] jeeez try apt-get install gpg [03:23] jeeez, reinstall Ubuntu over your current installation. [03:23] psywiped, Huufarted: no, i've got only one pc! [03:23] Anyone know where to download pgp v2.6.2? [03:23] jeeez: with data corruption like you've got, I think your only safe alternative is to get an Ubuntu live CD and reinstall over top of the currently existing one. [03:23] jeeez i have a clasic ibm laptop i can send you whats your address [03:24] psywiped: lol [03:24] Mikaze: why don't you use gpg from the repositories? [03:24] Mikaze: gpg is the open source version of pgp [03:24] Huufarted: heh, I've been wrangling tar file formats all night. Every different implementation seems to support only some subset of the meta-data (e.g. acls) so I was coming here in hopes I might find an easier to just do it myself [03:24] just wire 45.95 for shiping and handling [03:24] Because I want the one the govt is hiding from the public. [03:24] psywiped: Uhh.. no. [03:24] mdmkolbe: help a noob out. What's 'acls'? [03:25] Mikaze: Probably out there on sourceforge [03:25] Mikaze: you watch too much X-Files [03:25] can someone help me convert a xorg.conf file to the HAL/fdi format ? [03:25] mdmkolbe: the metadata of linux files? there are flags in tar to keep the permissions and ownerships intact [03:25] hey guys can you tell me how to burn a disc without interrupting samba everytime? [03:25] spaceBARbarian: that doesn't really make sense [03:25] Huufarted: acls = access control lists [03:25] thefeds: cups has a nice browser-based admin interface at http://localhost:631/ to set things up according to your liking [03:25] mdmkolbe: *files on a linux filesystem [03:26] Yeah, and WinXP didn't have their firewalls turned off when browsing microsoft.com. [03:26] mdmkolbe, gotcha. tar will preserve all permissions and ownerships on files. [03:26] jrib: i mean the contents, i am trying to confgire my mouse but all i can find from googling is xorg.conf settings, which no longer apply [03:26] Mikaze: do you have a question about ubuntu support?

[03:26] hi im here to help im an intermediate user [03:26] mdmkolbe: example: tar cvjf ~/backup.tar.bz2 /etc (this will back up your entire /etc directory, including perms and ownership, into the compressed tarball) [03:27] Huufarted: I don't think the version of tar that comes with ubuntu will do acls (/me double checks) [03:27] can anyone help me with this: http://i40.tinypic.com/2f054s2.png [03:27] Huufarted, psywiped: thanks for the help guys, need to leave! adios [03:27] jrib: my razer mouse, it is way to sensitivity and so i am trying to lower the DPI (resolution) using the xorg.conf settings [03:27] damn it... evolution keeps giving me a core dump when i try starting it [03:27] Yes. Which version of 'edbrowse' is supported. I'm blind and can't use Firefox via gnome-orca, since it's crap. [03:27] jrib: mouse settings in preferences or "xset m" command dont bring the sensitivity down low enough [03:27] cappicard guess thats better than kernel panics [03:27] can someone help me with this whine problem: http://i40.tinypic.com/2f054s2.png [03:27] i can't get it to start... it's my primary email client [03:27] spaceBARbarian: logitech? [03:28] mdmkolbe: I'm not sure, but as far as I know, the only metadata you need are the permissions, owner, and group. What else is there? This is an honest question. [03:28] jrib: no its a Razer Diamondback [03:28] mdmkolbe: acl's? as in AD acl's? isn't that stored in the ntfs filesystem?

[03:30] Just wanna know if the latest version of edbrowse is being supported by Ubuntu, because I'm ditching Debian...the last distro to support the handicapped. [03:30] Huufarted: ACLs are not part of the standard permissions. So unless your tar was specifically compiled to support acls, they will not be preserved. (Ubuntu's version doesn't appear to be.) [03:30] spaceBARbarian: an input driver different than "mouse" [03:30] Ubuntu+1 is dead, we are back. [03:30] Huufarted: also if you are on SELinux, you need to store the security context for the files that are stored in the extended file attributes. These won't be saved by a naive tar either. [03:31] acce2451: ubuntu+1 is where you can get jaunty support [03:31] jrib: yeah id rather go out and buy a different crappy mouse than go through a 500 page ubuntu manual for something so elementry [03:31] Hello, I am currently having a few problems with my graphics card *Laptop onboard intel* not running correctly, If somebody could /msg me would be great [03:31] mdmkolbe: understood.

[03:31] Trying to decide to go with you guys now, or GRML.

Thanks, guys. [03:32] jrib: the link you sent me is for xorg.conf files, soemone here told me they have no effect anymore [03:32] Let's take a wider approach. [03:33] spaceBARbarian: the link I gave you is not for xorg.conf files... [03:33] what wider than his mom? [03:33] acce2451: musikgoat|main is right. Most people in here (not all) don't use the betas.

Did you see the examples on the wiki? [03:37] Anybody know a good place to find Ubuntu video tutorials [03:37] spaceBARbarian: If you want a general xorg.conf, dpkg-reconfigure xorg-xserver [03:37] networking question: Have a gigabit ethernet card that's only negotiating to 100 mbit. Any suggestions? [03:37] ok, sorry got disconnected fixed ports i think [03:37] !screencasts | badpenguin86 [03:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about screencasts [03:37] !screencast | badpenguin86 [03:37] badpenguin86: Some programs to capture your screen are recordmydesktop, Istanbul, Wink, Gvidcap, Xvidcap, vnc2swf, demorecorder. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. [03:37] THanks [03:37] huuf its your network make sure that all other devices are gigabit [03:37] Huufarted: have you tried forcing the negotiation? [03:38] psywiped: cat6 cables and a gigabit switch. === meanburrito920_ is now known as zigggggy [03:38] musikgoat|main: I've tried using: sudo ethtool -s eth1 speed 1000 duplex full [03:38] musikgoat|main: and the link goes dead 5-10 seconds, then comes back as 100 mbit again [03:38] Is there documentation for the fields pam-auth-update expects in its config files (under /usr/share/pam-configs)? === zigggggy is now known as meanburrito029_ [03:38] whats the diffrence between cat 6 and cat 5e === meanburrito029_ is now known as meanburrito920_ [03:39] musikgoat|main: if I try and additionally set autoneg off, it stays dead [03:39] Huufarted: and you have other devices that connect to this switch at 1000/full? [03:39] its a switch that doesnt effect it [03:39] Cat 6 is 250MHz, cat 6a is 500MHz [03:39] musikgoat|main: yes. Correction, only one other PC is currently gigabit and it connects just fine. [03:39] user2 / developers [03:39] 67.54.196.212 [03:39] please connect so i can debug proftpd [03:39] jasballz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [03:40] psywiped: yes it does [03:40] spaceBARbarian: is there anything in particular that you aren't sure about? [03:40] hello guys..i need help here..or what i mean..a question... [03:40] musikgoat|main: only the switch needs to negotiate with the NIC [03:40] !ask | raven [03:40] raven: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [03:40] jrib: is this what i should be looking at ? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Input [03:40] Huufarted: i understand that [03:40] spaceBARbarian: yes [03:40] musikgoat|main: either way, this NIC used to connect at gigabit just fine [03:40] hehehehe...ok ubottu...guys..if i installed ubuntu 8.10 using wubi, can i update ubuntu to 9.04? [03:41] yes raven [03:41] raven when its out sudo apt-get distro-upgrade [03:41] "update-manager -d" [03:41] raVen: ubottu is just a bot that tells people things that get asked very frequently. Please don't think it's intelligent. [03:41] Huufarted: i would start to guess drivers, but I wouldn't know what to suggest, take a look into what module is controlling your nic, and make sure its best [03:42] please take note psywiped, i installed it using wubi...it wont affect my old windows xp os?..camradekingu: is that for me? huufarted..sorry..coz im new to ubuntu and irc chatting [03:42] musikgoat|main: where can I find information on modules? I don't know what a module is in Ubuntu [03:42] hey, i use urxvt and for some reason it autostarts in a directory in my home dir. what is the deal? it used to start in ~ and now it is this other dir. I haven't touched any config files [03:42] how do i make a cron job? [03:42] Huufarted: its just a supplicant to the kernel [03:42] raVen: just trying to keep you from looking funny, that's all. :) [03:42] raven it cant touch your xp install only you can [03:42] !cron | psywiped [03:42] psywiped: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto - There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm [03:43] Huufarted: Then you should probably wait till the final release comes out (in about two weeks time) [03:43] musikgoat|main: how would I determine which module is associated with it? [03:43] Hello, I am currently having a few problems with my graphics card *Laptop onboard intel* not running correctly, however works pefect in root but could do with some help using it in wine games If somebody could /msg me would be great [03:43] comradekingu: what are you talking about? I don't use beta. [03:43] FloodBot1: thx [03:43] Would someone mind trying to connect so I can debug proftpd? [03:43] Huufarted: lsmod [03:43] aw i was hoping the bot would tell me [03:43] NickUK: No one will pm you. This is a public channel. [03:43] jasballz pm [03:43] ok [03:43] However, you may get regular help. [03:43] Anon - Well could somebody lend me a hand [03:43] Huufarted: But updating now would mean getting the beta [03:43] psywiped: he did tell you [03:44] comradekingu: You can't dist-upgrade to a beta, can you? [03:44] NickUK: try running glxgears as regular user. [03:44] doesnt count if someone invokes it [03:44] huufarted: thank you so much from saving me from embarrassment..lol...psywiped: ok..thank you so much.because im worried that i installed wubi 8.10 for ubuntu 8.10..i thought that having wubi 8.10 and updating ubuntu to 9.04 would cause some problems [03:44] Huufarted: you can look at lspci to see what nic card is being used [03:44] comradekingu: you lost me. My issue is with networking, has nothing to do with that. [03:44] I have an issue with autodownload on Doom 3, when I try and download files from my server i get an error saying "cannot cd to home" the server OS is ubuntu and I am using pro ftpd with the filepath /home/FTP-doom3/annihilationx if anyone could help that'd be great [03:44] psywiped: that's the only way ubottu speaks [03:44] Yes Anon - That works [03:44] Huufarted: which nic manufacturer? [03:44] musikgoat|main: checking those now [03:45] k [03:45] Oh, wine games. Sorry. [03:45] musikgoat|main: Realtek RTL8169 [03:45] huufarted: thank you so much from saving me from embarrassment..lol...psywiped: ok..thank you so much.because im worried that i installed wubi 8.10 for ubuntu 8.10..i thought that having wubi 8.10 and updating ubuntu to 9.04 would cause some problems. [03:45] musikgoat|main: actually the mfgr is Netgear [03:45] raven all wubi does is make a vrutural partition on you computer and put ubuntu onto it [03:45] Huufarted: then type, lsmod | grep rt [03:45] NickUK: the fact is, lag in wine is commonplace. It's rare for a game to play without lag in wine. [03:45] Anon - This had a problem with linux native games [03:45] openarena would not work unless i ran it under root [03:46] i am in need of some help agian... i am running Ubuntu 8.10...how do i get 4 desktops and compiz? [03:46] psywiped: oh ok..so..except that it is a virtual partition, what else are the restrictions or disadvantages of using wubi?and a comparison to the real installation and repartition... [03:46] NickUK: perhaps post the terminal output? [03:46] raVen: Slow. [03:46] nickUK check if the regular user is missing any groups [03:46] Huufarted: sorry, the nic chip is different than the manufacturer, i used the wrong name [03:46] gigabites2: may i beg your pardon? [03:46] How would i do that? [03:46] is there a group for gfx access? [03:46] musikgoat|main: none of them relating to that. :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/143834/ [03:46] its slower and if windows breaks it can to and if you dont exit windows corectly you have to boot into it first [03:46] the realtek is what you want [03:47] musikgoat|main: I know. [03:47] Gruelius: he runs glxgears fine as regular user. [03:47] Huufarted: whats the output of lsmod [03:47] raVen: Wubi is slow. You take a performance hit by having to run off a file in an ntfs partition? [03:47] ah k [03:47] musikgoat|main: stand by (and thanks a ton for the help. :) [03:47] Huufarted: sure [03:47] jrib: how bad will it be if i configure the fdi badly and try to run it ? [03:48] and if windows crashs before you can go into ubuntu you have to boot and shutdown windows again [03:48] RTFM...lol [03:48] musikgoat|main: http://paste.ubuntu.com/143835/ [03:48] j/k [03:48] happens on my laptop alot [03:48] psywiped: oh ok...so..the chance of messing is up is low,right? [03:48] gigabites2: yeah...but i havent noticed any slowing down or performance problems (for now)... [03:48] and you cant make ubuntu autoboot [03:48] Hello, my Firefox on Ubuntu simply crashes (no warnings, etc, nothing on stderr either) when I try to install ANY Firefox Add-on. What could be causing this problem? I have tried clearing my ~/.mozilla folder but to no avail. [03:48] spaceBARbarian: X might not start? (I don't see how that could happen though) Worst case scenario, you drop to a shell and delete your custom fdi... [03:48] raVen: Fair enough. [03:48] ok so how do i get 4 desktops on my Ubuntu 8.10 OS? [03:49] yea windows can break the ubuntu install but ubuntu cant break windows [03:49] I use Ubuntu with KDE4.1.2 and Firefox is 3.0.8 [03:49] Intrepid Ibex [03:49] heardcameron: in the lower-right corner of the default desktop and panel setup, you have 2 rectangles. right-click, choose properties, and choose 4 columns instead of 2. [03:49] Huufarted: r8169 is the driver [03:50] musikgoat|main: understood. So what do I do with that info now? [03:50] heardcameron: install compiz and goto compiz-settings / general and increase desktop size [03:50] qwertymaniac: weird. IDK, what version of ubuntu are you running? [03:50] Huufarted: so i would suggest looking for ways to either update that, or recompile [03:50] musikgoat|main: understood. [03:50] jasballz: Intrepid Ibex, 8.10 [03:50] did we just get gentoo spill over? [03:50] musikgoat|main: another piece to the puzzle that MIGHT have bearing... http://paste.ubuntu.com/143837/ [03:50] psywiped: oh...thank you so much for your help..to summarize it..i can update/install or do anything to this ubuntu OS just like a real installation? [03:50] gigabites2: it took me hours to know how to install ubuntu without repartitioning my drives. trial and errors. someone told me about wubi....so finally... [03:50] Huufarted: what kernel do you have (uname -r) [03:51] musikgoat|main: I have a second NIC also RTL. Getting uname -r for you now [03:51] musikgoat|main: 2.6.27-11-generic [03:51] yep raven thats why you have to reboot to get into it [03:51] qwertymaniac: did you always have this problem? [03:51] Huufarted: do you have the negotiation problem on the other NIC? [03:51] musikgoat|main: yup... :( [03:52] just like pinico its a real os [03:52] hi, it;s very serious now . i installed some ubuntu lcd patches which is said can improve font renderring, but now it just fucked my fonts renderring ... even if i uninstall all of them , things don't change ... how to i go back to my font config ? [03:52] jasballz: no, been facing it since yesterday [03:52] psywiped: well...im new to all of this stuff..so i dont know much... [03:52] only windows makes it ride on the short buss [03:52] whats gentoo? [03:52] how do i find port ownership with netstat? [03:52] ok thx for that jazzballz... but how do i get them in a cube?? [03:52] jasballz: Updating the kernel was my last apt action. [03:53] who uses a lexmark printer here?how did you install the driver for it? [03:53] any buddy could help ? [03:53] jasballz an install that takes a year from your life in exchange [03:53] musikgoat|main: booting up my other laptop as well so I can start screwing with the NICs in this PC and not have to worry about losing IRC [03:53] Huufarted: comradekingu suggests this link, have you seen it? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=579312 === heyuxiang is now known as iamjustin [03:53] jrib: is this output from "cat /proc...devices" in hex ? "I: Bus=0003 Vendor=1532 Product=0002 Version=0110" or do i have to convert it ? [03:54] musikgoat|main: no, I have not but I'm reading it now. [03:54] spaceBARbarian: you shouldn't need any of that really [03:54] iamjustin: try clearing ~/.fontconfig folder and go back to the font options of your DE and set it to the desired ones? [03:54] jrib: well im just doing what it said in the example [03:55] Huufarted: it could be a bug with realtek drivers, but its odd that you say that it worked in the past [03:55] maybe it worked before a kernel update? [03:55] QwertyManiac: ok,i'll try [03:55] spaceBARbarian: I don't remember needing to convert anything, but I'm not sure [03:55] musikgoat|main: that's kinda what I'm thinking, but I'm not sure exactly when I upgraded the kernel. === heardcameron is now known as heardcameron|BRB === Huufarted is now known as Huufarted_ [03:56] Huufarted: do you keep old kernels? catch the grub prompt and test the old kernel [03:57] musikgoat|main: The nic was also reportedly running at non gigabit speeds in the past [03:57] musikgoat|main: good call. [03:57] hmm, i thought Huufarted said it worked at gig speeds in the past, is this not the case? [03:57] Huufarted: kernel version? [03:58] Hi. I run out of free HD space in my main partition. This is weird. /tmp and /home use other partitions. How can I find why I run out of space? [03:58] If I have several lines of text, each with a number, how can I use a shell script to find the biggest number? === heardcameron|BRB is now known as heardcameron [03:58] is there a way to reconfigure my keyboard settings in Jaunty? I think something went wrong during keyboard detection [03:58] musikgoat|main: it did work in the past. That's why I miss my 50-60 MB/sec transfer speeds. :( [03:58] Huufarted: what was a good call? [03:58] i need some help how do i get my Ubuntu 8.10 desktop into the cube [03:58] musikgoat|main: Huufarted: The posters in the thread reported 10Mbit and 100Mbit speeds [03:59] comradekingu: unfortunately there is no resolution in that thread [03:59] musikgoat|main: good call about bumping back to an older kernel. My PC is also making me out to be a liar. lol the on-board NIC is linking up at gigabit... *sigh* [03:59] weell that was a big deadzone [03:59] Huufarted: interesting [03:59] it doesn;t help removing ~/.fontconfig [04:00] musikgoat|main: As a last resort you could try ndiswrapper if all else fails. [04:00] musikgoat|main: so I could have been wrong about that NIC connecting at 100 mbit. I'm not 100% [04:00] any body know where does ubuntu lcd patches changes the whole system ? [04:00] comradekingu: an ndiswrapper seems like a cop-out solution. :( It doesn't seem proper to me [04:00] Huufarted: well, its something to keep an eye on, expansion cards can sometimes be a problem, if IRQ assignments are not properly used [04:01] musikgoat|main: gotcha [04:01] Hi. I run out of free HD space in my main partition. This is weird. /tmp and /home use other partitions. How can I find why I run out of space? [04:01] iamjustin hua? [04:01] man froze [04:01] gasull: du -h [04:01] iamjustin please run an expanson function on your question [04:01] gasull: graphically applications -> accessories -> disk space analyzer [04:02] anyone tried updating to 9.04? are there any bugs? [04:02] *disk usage analyzer [04:02] gasull its probly /var [04:02] gasull: musikgoat|main has a solution better than mine. :) [04:02] musikgoat|main: thanks. I can't run X [04:03] psywiped: libxft-ubuntu or something fucked up my fonts [04:03] HI ALL! im trying to install server 8.10 from a usb drive, I can boot into the setup as per usual then it tells me it cant find a cd drive, so i made a syslink to /dev/sdb (usb drive) called /dev/cdrom/cdrom0 but it still wont work.... anyone got any idears... i thought it mite be becasue the file system is fat32 but so is the install cd. [04:03] raVen: join #ubuntu+1 [04:03] * gasull is running du -h [04:03] ok comradeking [04:03] raVen, you might ask over in #ubuntu+1 [04:03] gasull: sorry, then i would suggest du -h --max-depth=1 [04:03] iamjustin sudo apt-get uninstall libxft-ubuntu [04:03] heardcameron: install "Advanced Desktop Effects Settings (ccsm)" from the Add/Remove... menu. I can't identify the package name for apt-get. [04:03] hoe [04:04] oe [04:04] gasull: then you can traverse down the folders that are the culprits [04:04] thanks guys [04:04] ./quit linux [04:04] the10 just install it from there [04:04] gasull: you may want to do it as root though [04:05] musi it asks you for your sudo password [04:05] psywiped: you aren't on the same page as me [04:05] musikgoat|main: he's on page 42. Which page are you on? [04:05] oh god.. this made my day [04:05] * gasull is running sudo du / -h --max-depth=1 [04:05] thats how i did compiz and the icon [04:05] Appendix B [04:05] you guys have to see this === vita is now known as santi [04:06] como instalo et on linux [04:06] just make sure your on ubuntu lol its some kind of windows tom foolery it made me lol http://scanner.av1-best-click.info/scan.php?campaign=mmb_934922303&landid=4 [04:06] oh noooeeezzzz im infectd [04:06] !ot | UbbyCD [04:06] UbbyCD: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[04:08] Anyone try ubuntu portable yet? [04:08] really is that not funny as heck to see on UBUNTU [04:08] jeesz yeh [04:08] sorry :S [04:08] i was browsing and that popped up and i about died laughing [04:08] jasballz: explain the problem [04:08] WTFsure--: no worries. :) It's all good [04:09] UbbyCD: it's offtopic. Please stop. [04:09] guys...are these 283 updates for ubuntu 8.10 safe? [04:09] jrib: this hal stuff doesnt work :P tried a whole bunch of different settings but mouse is still sensitivity as hell [04:09] raVen: yes [04:09] raVen: as long as you're not using third party repositories, you should be good to go [04:09] it is recommended to install it right now?this is not ubuntu 9.04 right? [04:09] raVen: if you haven't touched your repositories, then you are only getting updates from ubuntu [04:09] what do you mean by 3rd party repositories? [04:09] raVen: if you have 8.10 installed, it will not bump you to 9.04 [04:09] spaceBARbarian: check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log . You restarted hal and X? [04:10] raVen: if you don't know what a third party repository is, then you're in the clear. :) [04:10] wahahahaha...lol..just for the sake of being ignorant...what is it [04:10] !repo | raVen [04:10] raVen: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [04:10] hmm hello , is it possible to install ventrilo in ubuntu 8.10 32 bits yet? [04:11] WTFsure--, use wine.. [04:11] raVen: 3rd party, of course, means not ubuntu [04:11] oh my...there are a lot of things to learn about linux T_T [04:11] how about wubi?is it one? [04:11] raVen: wubi is just a method of installing [04:11] i managed to install with wine , but it wont open, its just shows me the ventrilo main window and wont run [04:11] raVen: the best explanation is, it's a server you pull programs from. In Windows, you find a company's website, download a package, hope it installs. In Linux, you run one command and it's installed. It downloads it from these repositories. [04:11] dang heck of a time for the battery to go dead [04:12] oooooooooohhh....ok i get it..thanks guys..hope you are not mad.. [04:12] raVen: mad for what? Every single person in here had limited knowledge in here at one point. Asking is the best way to find that info. [04:13] did anyone else get a kick out of that link? [04:13] except jrib :-) [04:13] my pc died [04:13] *battery [04:13] therefore, i should accept these 283 updates... [04:13] Huufarted: thank you..because im a newbie..its my very first time to touch linux, specifically ubuntu... [04:13] UbbyCD: no. You're attempting to link malware infested links and that's not tolerated. [04:13] UbbyCD: Again, it's offtopic for this channel. [04:13] raVen: I would recommend installing those updates. I doubt it will hurt anything. [04:14] musikgoat|main psywiped Huufarted: 5.7G /var, 7.6G /usr . Should I empty /var? How? [04:14] lighten up were on ubuntu .. it was poling fun at windowz [04:14] ok then..^_^ thank you again huufarted and musikgoat [04:14] raVen: any package that makes it into the official repositories (where the updates come from) are deemed stable. [04:14] UbbyCD: please stay on-topic here [04:15] gasull: your apt cache could be taking up alot of space [04:15] oh..so the update manager releases ONLY stable updates and stuff.. [04:15] raVen: correct... UNLESS you've added third party repositories, which you have not done and therefore don't need to worry about that quite yet. :) [04:16] gasull: you can run sudo apt-get clean [04:16] gasull: then check the size of /var [04:16] alas! now i get it ^_^ is it true that every installation in ubuntu doesnt require any reboots... [04:16] seriously though im skeered i have viruses now [04:16] What version of nautilus does Ubuntu use? [04:16] musikgoat|main: OK. Thanks [04:16] * gasull running sudo apt-get clean [04:16] raVen: no thats incorrect... any kernel update requires a reboot [04:16] also is there some kind of exploit in firefox now? [04:16] Ashfire908: Which version of Ubuntu? [04:16] raVen: no. If you upgrade the kernel, it will require a reboot [04:16] UbbyCD, stop that [04:17] raVen: but kernel updates are very rare. [04:17] Flannel, 8.10 [04:17] uhm..and what is a kernel now ^_^ [04:17] like it was kinna hijacking my firefox a bit [04:17] !kernel | raVen [04:17] raVen: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [04:17] asked if i wanted to download a bunch of stuff without me even clicking on things [04:17] musikgoat|main: It changed from 5.7G to 5.6G [04:17] Ashfire908: 2.24 [04:17] raVen: the kernel is just the very core of Linux. It's something that's transparent to most users. They don't know it's there. [04:17] i felt violated is there a patch for firefox to fix that [04:17] UbbyCD: stay on topic. #ubuntu-offtopic for chat [04:18] im on topic [04:18] so kernel is like the system32 of windows? [04:18] UbbyCD: /join #firefox [04:18] UbbyCD: no, you are not [04:18] gasull: hmm then something else is it up, change your du command to /var instead of / [04:18] raVen, no. [04:18] hehe one more user for my ignore list [04:18] Ashfire908: er, 2.24.1 [04:18] gasull: and work your way down to determine what sub directory is the culprit [04:18] raVen: it's way lower level than that, but you've got the idea. :) [04:19] I got a question, everytime I download wubi to install ubuntu, it downloads ubuntu 8.10 -64 bits, and gives me no chance to choose another one, I want a wubi-like program to download and install ubuntu 8.04 -32bits?? from windows xp, thanks for help. [04:19] hello there, my ubuntu installation seems to be broken ;( I cna boot into single mode, but not regular [04:19] raVen: when you install these updates you're doing now, it will require a reboot because one of those updates will be the kernel, being the first time you've updated since installation [04:19] Ubutntu 9.04 beta: compiz: missing transparency effeccts on all windows. everything else in compiz works great. any ideas? [04:19] intel graphics [04:19] WTFsure--: you need to download the 32-bit .iso, not the 64-bit [04:19] aw..ok then...coz i hate reboots..hehehe...well..no choice...thank you so much [04:19] quantumkenny: #ubuntu+1 [04:19] ashfire,huufarted and musikgoat..thanks [04:19] quantumkenny: just FYI, you won't find much help on betas in this channel. [04:20] i see [04:20] thanks [04:20] huufarted, yeh but i didnt downloaded it by .iso just download the program wubi [04:20] musikgoat|main: I see the problem now: /var/backup and /var/backups. I was using sbackup for trying to back up my system, unsuccessfully [04:20] in synaptic package manager, when I click reload, I get this: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY FC66403D8670A035 [04:20] ouch] [04:20] gasull: ahh, then delete what you need to :-) [04:20] musikgoat|main: I will just delete those directories [04:20] hello there, my ubuntu installation seems to be broken ;( I cna boot into single mode, but not regular [04:20] musikgoat|main: Thanks a lot :-) [04:20] sure [04:20] What do you guys use for backups? [04:20] raVen: our pleasure. :) Linux is a great operating system, especially once you start learning it more. This is really nerdy... but I daresay it's fun. [04:20] tar [04:20] tar [04:20] gasull: I use rsync [04:21] Its two against one :p [04:21] isnt there a direct download for wubi-8.04-32bits? [04:21] guy waht is the best boock to learn linux [04:21] ndshacker: would you tar up 360 GB of music? :) [04:21] yeah..that is why this got my attention because it requires a lot of things before understanding it Huufarted.. [04:21] Ubuntu Kung Fu [04:21] in synaptic package manager, when I click reload, I get this: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY FC66403D8670A035 <-- why? [04:21] o man i just had a picture in my minde of raven trying to install gentoo [04:21] huufarted: id add a exclude [04:22] psywiped...now..what is gentoo [04:22] kidding? [04:22] isnt there a direct download for wubi-8.04-32bits? [04:22] ndshacker, why an exclude? The music is what I'm backing up. :) [04:22] raVen: that is offtopic, its another version of linux [04:22] raven its a do it yourself linux distro [04:22] !ppagpg > ariqs [04:22] ariqs, please see my private message [04:22] huufarted: then id use tar [04:23] raVen: You're correct. Linux requires a lot of knowledge to really master (far more than I've got) but requires virtually none to be an end-user of. [04:23] isnt there a direct download for wubi-8.04-32bits? [04:23] Huufarted: rsync is great for making mirrors, but most people aren't looking to back that up, they want to backup the OS [04:23] yes thereis [04:23] check the sourceforge page [04:23] wtf no you chose it inside of wubi [04:23] hhhiiiii [04:23] musikgoat|main: will tar backup all of the files on the mounted primary partition? [04:23] that wasnt very nice.. I rly had serious question [04:23] nah it gives no option to choose [04:23] pwd [04:23] Huufarted: yes [04:23] so musikgoat...coz psywiped mentioned it...psywiped: oh...well..if i have time..il check on it..il get to know ubuntu 1st....Huufarted: yeah..i first heard of linux at my school. coz our school made its own version of linux..its called Lorma Linux [04:24] wtf just make a 30gig partiton on your hdd and install it there [04:24] oops..that's "sorry musikgoat" [04:24] Last questions guys: I still use Ubuntu 8.04. Is it worth the headache to upgrade to the latest one? It wouldn't be the first time I screw up my system in the upgrade the the latest Ubuntu, and I end up doing a clean install :-) [04:24] no worries [04:24] hp bruto mas obio no pues weon [04:25] gasull that upgrade has no issues just do it [04:25] gasull: upgrades can be troublesome sometimes, but mostly, 8.04 -> 8.10 is painless [04:25] gasull: stick with 8.04 [04:25] its an LTS [04:25] ndshacker: doesn't 8.10 become LTS when 9.04 hits? [04:25] ofc it does [04:25] Huufarted: No. [04:25] I tried to lighten the atmosphere with a something I saw as being funny but who cares I didnt realize this room was so uptight.. I seriously want to know if all those popups that happened without me asking was some kind of exploit in Firefox and if it is fixable [04:25] ndshacker: Yeah, that's why I'm still w/ 8.4 [04:25] thats only a good thing in a corprate viro [04:25] Flannel: what determines if a version is LTS or not/ [04:25] (I meant 8.04) [04:25] huufarted: no [04:25] ofc it does [04:25] psywiped: oh...well..if i have time..il check on it..il get to know ubuntu 1st....Huufarted: yeah..i first heard of linux at my school. coz our school made its own version of linux..its called Lorma Linux [04:26] Huufarted: Theyre decided beforehand. 6.06 is LTS, 8.04 is LTS, 10.04 will be the next one. [04:26] canonical decides, usually every 3rd release [04:26] musikgoat|main: fourth [04:26] or 4th? [04:26] every fourth i think [04:26] Flannel: understood. Why are some LTS? [04:26] 4th] [04:26] 3v3 et med+ server on [04:26] because it would be a waste of resources to make them all that way [04:26] huuf for corprate viros [04:27] psywiped: viros? [04:27] Huufarted: Because some people don't want to upgrade every few months. LTS allows you to upgrade once every few years. [04:27] enviroments [04:27] UbbyCD, and why are so many non LTS instead of a few LTS ? [04:27] Flannel: gotcha [04:27] cubicals make me sick so viro [04:27] wow, t3rra its 3v3 et med+ serv on [04:27] because some people like cutting edge [04:27] i have a busted dvd/cd drive how can is it possible to install ubuntu [04:27] its cutting edge vs stability [04:27] WTFsure--: Please stop that. [04:28] ok [04:28] cast use a usb loader [04:28] was a private question anyways [04:28] ok [04:28] cast do a search for install ubuntu from usb drive [04:28] ofc it does [04:28] um, is there a way too look at active memory, and get a live map of the alignments? [04:28] non lts versions are basically so they can give you the cutting edge without wholly commiting to it [04:28] WTFsure--: if it was private, why announce it in a channel, open a pm [04:28] or yahoo if your into that sort of thing [04:29] Guys, can we take the LTS discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic? Thanks. [04:29] UbbyCD: didn't follow all your messages, but i take it you have your firefox preferences set to block popup windows ? [04:29] Castawayz: you might be able to install from a USB drive [04:29] ubbycd was a troll [04:29] someone is in a pissy mode [04:29] mood [04:29] !gnome icons [04:29] Sorry, I don't know anything about gnome icons [04:29] is it bad to always reboot and switch from one OS to another OS? [04:29] im trying to help and i get flamed [04:29] !installing icons [04:29] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [04:30] heh [04:30] no raven [04:30] raVen: no [04:30] hi [04:30] just timeconsuming [04:30] how do i install icons on gnome? [04:30] lol im a troll... [04:30] I must have misconfigured my keyboard when I installed Jaunty and some keys do not work. Is there a way to fix it without a reinstall? [04:30] you send me dirty pictures psywiped [04:30] black have your tried google? [04:30] Flannel: it's on-topic, IMO. If there's a valid enough reason for 8.04 over 8.10, it may be beneficial to downgrade [04:30] UbbyCD: stop [04:30] I am running Ubuntu in virtualbox [04:30] raVen: since they are on separate partitions or disks, it is fine [04:30] t3rra [04:30] Pollywog i'm runnning ubuntu on host :) [04:31] psywiped:if i'm here it's perhaps i'm not able to goole for some reason [04:31] blackcoffee just put it in /usr/share/pixmaps [04:31] I run Hardy on the host [04:31] oh...thanks psywiped and musik...well..one is a virtual partition....ok then ^_^ and one more question guys...what causes RAM to be malfunctioning...(hardware) [04:31] what should /var/www be owned by? [04:31] pollywog k [04:31] racecar:thanks man [04:31] raVen: just life of the ram [04:31] blackcoffee no problem :) [04:31] raVen: if it's defective hardware is the first guess. You can boot to a LiveCD and use memtest [04:31] I must have made a mistake during kb detection [04:31] for any additional help type in: sudo google.com [04:31] what should /var/www be owned by? it's owned by root currently [04:32] woot..i can learn a lot in here ^_^ thank you again guys [04:32] racecar56, that's normal. [04:32] no i think its sudo apt-get install google.com [04:32] Huufarted, lol, k [04:32] haha [04:32] racecar56: just make sure it's got 755 permissions [04:32] psywiped: please don't do that. [04:32] racecar56: if you don't like it, make a new user wwwuser and appoint it to that user: sudo chown -R wwwuser:wwwuser [04:32] do what? [04:33] damn that was suposed to be a private msg sorryz [04:33] psywiped: google type things. [04:33] installed system updates, system restart required. now cannot boot computer--setup and boot menu's stall--cannot access command prompt, any ideas? [04:33] ok then sudo apt-get install yahoo.com [04:33] for reals, though... sudo apt-get install w3m [04:33] then: w3m http://www.google.com [04:33] Huufarted: It's already installed, actually. [04:34] i like the links more [04:34] mountainma1: are you using ubuntu 9.04? [04:34] Flannel: I dont' know why... but I love that program. it makes Ubuntu that much more useful. And 'irssi' [04:34] no [04:34] huufarted...may i know what program is that [04:34] Huufarted, psywiped: Please take offtopic things elsewhere. This channel is for Ubuntu support. "Go google it" (or whatever search engine you prefer) is not proper support. [04:35] savvas - no, hardy heron i think...unless it was updating to 9.04 [04:35] they have been helping people too [04:35] raVen: w3m is a command line interface (otherwise known as CLI) web browser. 'irssi' is an IRC client, kinda like you're probably using XChat right now. [04:35] raven w3m is a text web browser for command line and irssi is a irc program [04:35] mountainma1: well it doesn't by default, did you click to upgrade to a new release? [04:35] anyone have suggestions for games I can install for my 7 year old sister on Kubuntu? [04:36] savvas: no, just upgrades. i usually do new distro's from scratch [04:36] gonorrea sacame otra vez y te mando a zicario [04:36] must resist bad idea [04:36] gotcha huufarted and psywiped..hmm...correct me if im wrong..everytime a message is for me, (with my nick) the color of your names become brown? [04:36] Heimark: I only use more advanced games, but just do a google search for "Top 25 linux games" and see which ones are more appropriate for a younger audience. :( [04:36] well I guess it will be a reinstall :( [04:37] raVen: its called highlight [04:37] mountainma1: when you boot you are prompted with several kernel options, did you try "recovery console" ? [04:37] raven thats because i type your name at the start of the the message [04:37] raVen: you've got it. Here's another tip in Ubuntu Command line and IRC. Start typing a name and press Tab and it will auto-complete it [04:37] Huufarted: thank you [04:37] raVen: tab at the command line will auto-complete filenames and directories. Comes in VERY handy [04:37] Huufarted thanks i didnt know that [04:37] Huufarted: WTF! i was manually typing your name guys T_T now i know.... [04:37] psywiped: one single button that makes so many lives that much easier. ;P [04:38] ctrl+v was my friend tll now [04:38] savvas: no i get the DELL screen, and it shows progress bar and stalls at last little bit. If I use F2, F12 for Setup or Boot Menu--it stalls further [04:38] thanks psywiped...^_^ [04:38] wahahahahahaha.....lol psywiped [04:38] hi all, downloaded and trying simdock but when i try to add an icon say for firefox launcher I get an "no handler found for image type" and the image type is png (firefox icon) [04:38] many programs in Ubuntu are TAB key friendly [04:38] Huufarted: into the first hour of Kubuntu, and only a month or so into Ubuntu on my own computers. Get to have fun on the young ones a little before I install it on my netbook when 9.04 comes out. [04:38] uhh whoops [04:39] Heimark: there's a package called edubuntu-addon-young with educational software and games for children that might have some .. [04:39] is there an iso recorder for ubuntu? [04:39] mountainma1: reboot it, and press "Esc" every second or so [04:39] what is that doing [04:39] and "error could not load image"...this on ubuntu studio 8.10 [04:39] hu5h_huff3r huxtxu Huufarted [04:39] what the heck is that [04:39] Heimark: I honestly don't know of games for younger audiences, though. :( I apologize [04:39] savvas: ok, at boot: [04:39] mountainma1: it will show up the boot options, where you can choose the recovery option, at least to debug what went wrong :) [04:39] UbbyCD: its showing you all the nicks starting with hu [04:39] redfish where areyou trying to do that? [04:40] thats sick i didnt know that [04:40] anyone know how to enable the gnome splash for ubuntu? [04:40] UbbyCD: Now you do. :) And knowing's half the battle! [04:40] i always thought you were typing in the name when you did that [04:40] intrepid* [04:40] no way, laziness ftw [04:40] Huufarted: that will help [04:40] yeah, I had some on my netbook.

[06:42] ziroday: I noticed that they buzztard has pre compiled pkgs for open-suse and RPM's as well, but that isn't a deb file. [06:42] PerryArmstrong: if it works on a livecd then yes [06:42] well you cannot change them, since they are un-resizable [06:42] ziroday: though I'm not a developer just a compiler, I don't know what I need, I just know when i need it. [06:42] marshall007, there is no such workaround i know of to get this done [06:42] him89_: like ./some_file -> /home/the10nitro/some_file [06:43] filename, rather [06:43] the10nitro, you want it auto change or something? [06:43] him89_: alright, thanks i was hoping there might be a way to force windows to not be over a specific length and instead use scrollbars but i guess not [06:43] ziroday; it didnt work on the live cd...and the surprising fact is i installed with the same live cd on my friends lappy and it installed perfectly with no resolution problems [06:43] I have a script that will not work with relative addresses [06:43] i got my source list but its blank [06:44] you will have to change the script and define the relative functions in it [06:44] ziroday; didnt work on the live cd in the sense..the same screen resolution appeared on this system [06:44] relative address functions [06:44] PerryArmstrong: I don't know sorry [06:45] ziroday..okk now i want to downgrade...do you know how??

[06:51] yes majishn that was it [06:52] Now...can you tell me how to give it a more meaningful name? "data" would describe it much better than "sda11"! [06:52] make a few change in the commands change sda11 to data [06:52] majishn, it should read like mount /dev/sda11 /media/data [06:53] Do I have to unmount it before I can mount it again? [06:53] ok one more time on the command to get the ubuntu desktop [06:53] yes [06:53] majishn, key in umount /dev/sda11 [06:54] I tried a "umount /dev/sda11" earlier, and it told me it was busy.

[06:58] well yes there physical is a floppy drive right in front of me...does it work? that's up for question [06:58] where can i go to find these "theme packages" ubuntu mentions in the appearance tab ?

I could copy the entry for sda9 or sda10, but don't know what to put in for UUID. [06:59] psychic: sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop.

[07:37] Auslegung: There are instructions here, but it looks like the site might be temporarily down: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MobileTeam/Mobile/HowTo/ImageWriting [07:37] if u want nautilus to open in sudo mode, edit menu entry for that to have "gksudo" prefix (this is how I would do it) [07:37] ok, thanks [07:38] I just installed Ubuntu but for some reason it's not detecting my Internet. Any thoughts? [07:38] HawkLion→ more details, please. [07:38] HawkLion cables unpluged? [07:39] Cables are plugged -seems like Ubuntu detects my ethernet card, but it seems like I'm missing something here... [07:40] HawkLion dhcp? [07:40] psywiped don't know? [07:40] HawkLion: Are you using a router? Do other machines work on this network? [07:41] yes, I do have a wireless router hooked up. I'm running my laptop off it right now. [07:41] dam this road is bumpy [07:41] hello, any good mount manager that would allow me to mount nfs shares? [07:42] or permanently adding them to fstab? [07:42] ghindo: do you think my disconnect has to do with my Linksys router? [07:42] gona have to ask google akuma [07:42] HawkLion: If your other machine is working fine, then probably not. I was just asking to get more details. [07:43] No sweat...what other details might be helpful in troubleshooting? [07:43] HawkLion: Try opening up a terminal on the machine that doesn't work and write ping "google.com" and let me know what you get back [07:43] psywiped: yea, didn't give me any good answers, people tend to be more reliable than machines as far as knowledge goes [07:43] run ipconfig [07:44] ghindo: OK, just a sec... [07:44] psywiped, please stop that [07:44] hua? [07:44] what [07:44] psywiped, you were asked not to tell people to google earlier. [07:44] lol, ipconfig to mount nfs shares, that's a good one [07:45] psywiped, and ipconfig is not a correct command. [07:45] !ifconfig [07:45] Sorry, I don't know anything about ifconfig [07:45] bazhang OK whats the right one then? [07:45] ghindo: ping: unknown host google.com [07:45] guido [07:45] psywiped, dont recommend google. [07:45] bazhang and why is that? [07:46] psywiped, people know about google already. stop it. [07:46] cuil.com them [07:47] HawkLion: Hrm. What makes you think that Ubuntu detects your ethernet card? [07:47] hello [07:48] hi... === anonymous1112 is now known as luqman [07:48] ghindo: went to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers [07:48] how do i setup my intrepid ubuntu to join my windows workgroup..? [07:48] well anyhow is it a fts drive or ntfs? [07:48] morning all [07:49] hi Mez [07:49] !hi | Mez [07:49] Mez: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!

[07:50] ghindo: it says no networks available [07:50] yea i rembered the command [07:50] psywiped, what is that command going to do? [07:51] HawkLion: What happens when you type "ifconfig" into the terminal? [07:51] make sure you install samba first HawkLion [07:51] tell if he has a ip address [07:51] HawkLion type: sudo apt-get install samba [07:51] HawkLion: Post the output into past.ubuntu.com [07:51] ghindo i think the same thing ipconfig does in windows [07:51] luqman: That's not really his problem. He doesn't have internet access [07:52] psywiped: bash: ipaddr: command not found [07:52] oh sorry... so his network drivers arent working? [07:53] luqman were not sure [07:53] luqman: I'm not sure at this point.

[07:54] ghindo, maybe he should download the samba package onto his desktop and then transfer it to a USB drive [07:55] and then on to the machine that has no internet [07:55] him89; there?? [07:55] hmm [07:55] luqman why whould that help if he doesnt have a ip address? [07:55] PerryArmstrong, yes i am here [07:55] luqman: He isn't really asking about Samba [07:56] him 89; i restarted but to no effect..wait my system is asking me restart again...i'll do that and then get back to you [07:56] what is Samba? [07:56] !samba | HawkLion [07:56] HawkLion: 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. [07:56] maybe we have language miscommunication. because you say he has no internet but he is on internet. it is strange that he is trying to get onto a 'microsoft' network if he is unable to get a local ip address. [07:56] PerryArmstrong, sure np [07:56] because first priority is getting a ip address for local computer... [07:56] luqman OR HE HAS 2 COMPUTERS [07:56] luqman: He's using another laptop to chat with us now [07:57] Ah...my desktop has Ubuntu completely installed on it. [07:57] can't be on internet with no ip [07:57] I have a Motorola modem to a Linksys Wireless router...thus, my internet connection on my laptop right now. [07:57] oh ok, my bad, i was thinking something different. i assume because he was on here that he had internets on that computer and wanted samba.... [07:58] HawkLion what do you get back for ifconfig -a ? [07:58] so your linksys router doesnt give an IP address to your computer, is it hard wired or wireless? [07:58] HawkLion: Also, if we are unable to help you here today, try your luck on the Ubuntu forums [07:58] luqman were not even sure right now if ubuntu is seeing his nic [07:59] ghindo: thank you. Everyone has been so very helpful to this newbie. [07:59] Hey, guys. I am installing ubuntu 8.10. After I configuring the keyboard layout, I press "forward".

After I configuring the keyboard layout, I press "forward". A window pop out saying "partman failed with exit code 10" and a lot of stuff. What am I gonna do? [08:03] eternal→ they are called 8.04 and 8.10 , and they are infact both stable and supported [08:03] eternal: you mean 8.10 not stable? so better the lts 8.04 ?

Cnat isntall UBUNTU! [08:05] HawkLion: are all the lights on your router for the machine you are trying to connect lit up. [08:05] o0Chris0o i dont know 8.10 is the first time ive goten the linux bsod the blinking caps lock [08:05] Alex_, whats the problmem? [08:05] luqman: yes [08:06] HawkLion: Are you using wireless? [08:06] psychosmose_→ have you tried another keyboard? [08:06] bluer what os are you doing it inside of? [08:06] HawkLion: Hrm. I'm really stumped. I would definitely recommend the Ubuntu Forums. [08:06] psychosmose_→ sorry [08:06] psywiped→ have you tried another keyboard [08:06] HawkLion: is there a "network" connection status icon on your gui anywhere [08:06] eternal: for my laptop right now yes -but my desktop is wired to the router [08:06] psywiped: Now I am under ubuntu. [08:06] downlaoded iso, burned to cd, boots up ok. when i choose install, i see the loading screen, then when the bar fills up the screen goes black, i hear the intro music then it stays black [08:06] psywiped: ubuntu is inside of windows xp [08:07] HawkLion: From your pastebin looks like ur ethernet device is not recognized. [08:07] o0Chris0o a blinking capslock indicats a kernel panic [08:07] i can see and move the white mouse but that is all [08:07] him89; http://paste.ubuntu.com/143938/ [08:07] Alex_, is the md5 sum alrgiht? [08:07] yes [08:07] HawkLion: can u paste lspci o/p for me ? [08:07] luqman: yes, and it says 'No network devices available' greyed out then VPN Connections [08:07] debia: here's what I got: usage: top -hv | -bcisSH -d delay -n iterations [-u user | -U user] -p pid [,pid ...] [08:07] HawkLion: i am on a wireless connection to router and it took me about a day just to get a stable connection, I was told some routers don't like linux but yer [08:07] i have also tried choosing to run ubuntu directly of cd , same result [08:08] HawkLion: then you need to figure out what type of card you have in your machine and then manually install the drivers. you'll need to see if you can find a debian package for the device and get that package on to the system somehow (usb) [08:08] debia: sure, just a minute... [08:08] !top [08:08] Sorry, I don't know anything about top [08:08] PerryArmstrong, is this all the xorg.conf file is? [08:08] Qrius, just type the one word "top" (without quote), at the prompt [08:08] him89; ya why?? [08:08] just after the loading screen, it loads the background(orange) and its shows me a little black X in the center of the screen, then it goes black [08:08] its pretty incomplete [08:09] HawkLion try seting up the connecion manuly it may be dhcp issue on the router [08:09] nothing defining it right [08:09] Alex_: usually it takes a while to load. if you are running it off a CD [08:09] left it for 1 hour at a time. on both options [08:09] Alex_, what Graphics card have you got? [08:09] debia: I'm at around 31% [08:09] him89; dont know much about that..i upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 by using the terminal [08:09] command [08:09] also i have a brand new clean unpartitioned HDD in there [08:10] well i am trying to get ubuntu on a Compaq nx9010 laptop [08:10] PerryArmstrong, wait i ll find you a good config file [08:10] Qrius, is your package manager still hanging [08:10] give me the to the bug report again [08:10] i think that may be the problem, it runs WIndows XP just fine on the other HDD [08:10] that you uploaded on the ubuntu site [08:10] debia: There's nothing specific in 'lspci o/p', just command options?... [08:10] debia: yep [08:10] Alex_, that cannot be a prolem [08:10] problem [08:10] bluer try runing wubi again [08:11] him89; ya but make sure you send me soon because i am going to have a power cut....and in case if you dont manage to...just mail me to jose_roshan@yahoo.com [08:11] HawkLion, sorry my mistake: just type lspci [08:11] Hi guys.

[08:15] debia: I've got over 100 sleeping. 1 or 2 running. Should I be looking for a particular task? [08:15] him89; you must be from the north...UP?? [08:16] Qrius, you said u had 2 zombie tasks. can u give me the name of these tasks ? [08:16] i am from delhi staying in B'lore u? [08:16] Qrius, btw what is a "Brother printer" [08:16] him89; my native is Kerala...but i am in hyderabad [08:16] ahhhh [08:17] HawkLion: if it is too big, you can run a shorter version : lspci -C network [08:17] thats nice :) [08:17] ok you 2 back on topic [08:17] him89; and i have been facing this problem since long [08:17] him89; yup [08:17] debia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/143944/ [08:17] i ll check it up :) [08:17] him89; :)thanq [08:17] ikonia; [08:18] PerryArmstrong: yes? [08:18] Hi all..how can I get Ubuntu repositories with rsync ?? I want to get only ubuntu hardy and Intrepid repositories. [08:18] luqman: what did you mean by debian package for the card? [08:18] ikonia; see my pm [08:18] Natilous: have a look at apt-mirror [08:18] debia: Not sure how I'd identify the two zombie tasks. Everything in System Monitor is sleeping. Brother is the brand name of the inkjet printer I'm trying to install. [08:19] debia: The only task that continuously uses CPU is compis.real [08:19] how comei went to #ubuntu--proxy--users [08:20] ikonia: I use it but apt-mirror can't delete unuseful files ! the partition of mirror is limit. [08:20] mib_oygbxj: you're using a proxy ? [08:20] mib_oygbxj: Because you're on mibbit. [08:20] Natilous: rats, ok then use rsync with the --exclude option [08:20] debia: ...besides Pidgin and System Monitor, that is. [08:20] is it ok to mibbit? [08:21] Qrius, package manager is synpatic right ? running ubuntu or kubuntu ? [08:21] Anybody know how I can run VirtualBox after I installed it from an official .deb? [08:22] ikonia: debian repositories haven't distinctive folders. [08:22] HawkLion have you tried restarting? [08:22] Qrius, in any case I dont see any option but to force quit it [08:22] Natilous: the dirctory layout is standard === mafsi_ is now known as mafsi [08:23] ikonia: sorry for bad english . what do mean ? [08:23] psywiped: I did earlier, but I can do it again. [08:23] Natilous: why can't you use the --exclude option ? [08:23] or mibbit is notok? [08:23] ikonia: would you please give an example? === sukke_ is now known as sukke [08:24] HawkLion have you tried restarting? [08:24] rsync rsync://location --exclude hardy $target [08:24] How do I find out what ethernet card I have? [08:24] psywiped: restarting now [08:24] HawkLion: if you do an "lspci" you'll see the chipset [08:24] debia: I'm not sure if this is the synaptic package manager. The recent security update took a bit of time, but it installed OK. I force quit this several times but when I re-try, it asks if I want to re-install. The latest flash player does the same hang. [08:24] ikonia; my synaptic says that my network is not configured correctly but still i get my internet. [08:25] ok ubuntu rocks realy great but why is the driver for a 3d card never good enough? [08:25] stevendc: because that is nothing to do with linux - ask your hardware vendor [08:25] thats the only one thing i need to search for [08:25] ikonia: because the packages are in Packages.list files and apt select any package from a folder !! [08:25] PerryArmstrong: check things like your sources.list are fine [08:25] ikonia: Chipset is VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105/VT6106S [Rhine-III] (rev 86) [08:25] ah...so that's why debia wanted me to lspci... [08:26] Natilous: you can edit Packages.list once you've mirrored [08:26] HawkLion: One more paste for me pls, this time: lshw -C network [08:26] ikonia: but I don't get it...Ethernet controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105/VT6106S [Rhine III] (rev 86) [08:26] HawkLion: what don't you get ? [08:27] ikonia; whats the command to check it [08:27] hiii [08:27] debia: sure...just a minute...still rebooting [08:27] PerryArmstrong: open it with a text editor and make sure the URL's are vaid/active [08:27] ikonia: see this link http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/liba/libapache-mod-auth-kerb/ this link content for ubuntu (i386,amd64) for ubuntu hardy and gutsy and ... [08:27] ikonia: is that my Ethernet card? [08:27] HawkLion: yup [08:27] ikonia: I have'nt enough space to get all packages. [08:27] Natilous: ok, I see what your saying now [08:27] hallo. i need some live cd with diagnostics cause i am about to buy a used pc. anyone knows any? [08:28] ikonia; sure i do know that...but its located /etc/... somewhere..i dont know the exact location?? [08:28] Natilous: let me grab apt-mirror as I have done this with apt-mirror [08:28] Hello. Simple question. How do I know if my Ubuntu server supports UTF8? [08:28] ah...so I can track to the manufacturer to get driver? [08:28] PerryArmstrong: /etc/apt/sources.list [08:28] ikonia: thank you ! [08:28] what kind of chicken in my server?

I'm experiencing what i think is a bug in the network manager. For the wired connection, the ip details must be manually set everytime on reboot [09:08] to work [09:08] him89; when did we add the modes and how?? [09:08] PerryArmstrong, its added in the xorg.conf file [09:08] when I remove a file in command can i recover it back? [09:08] It's happening on every machine that i've installed xubuntu [09:08] avishek, thats not a bug thats how it works [09:09] HawkLion: nvm the "Updating connection failed" error since we didn't change any setting. [09:09] debia: left-click on network manager icon shows no network name...No network devices available is grayed out. [09:09] if you dont have a DHCP you need to enter manually [09:09] debia: ok [09:09] him89; ohh yes...but i am surprised why...is there no way now [09:09] HawkLion: the last thing I can think of doing now is to restart networking service [09:09] it much be compatability with some software [09:09] Are there other Virtual Machines instead of Virtual Box? [09:09] him89, is there anyway to save the ip addresses once manually entered ? [09:10] HawkLion: pls open a terminal and type : sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [09:10] debia: ok [09:10] yes right click on the network manager and edit connections [09:10] HawkLion: do mind the spaces, there are 3 parts separated by space [09:10] and edit the connection to make it static ip [09:10] and it should work if configured properly [09:11] him89, yes, i edit connections, enter ip, gateway, netmask, dns, and close. everything works fine, but when i reboot, all settings are cleared off [09:11] him89; so no alternative [09:11] HawkLion: if you can paste the output I can see if there is more I can do [09:11] anybody know how to get power management to work properly on laptop [09:12] ikonia; any help?? [09:12] avishek, did you save it right? [09:12] but this problem doesn't happen with the wireless settings, only the wired connections [09:12] Hello. I have problems with mounting cifs network share and make utf8 to work properly. What am I doing wrong with the iocharset option? I have tried utf8, iso88591-1 and cp850 but they don't work any of them. I man mount.cifs is claims that iocharset option is not used if the server doesn't support utf8. How can I check if the server supports utf8? [09:12] him89, yes [09:12] PerryArmstrong, nope nothing i can think of [09:12] avishek, wireless have names so there is no problem [09:12] debia: ok just a minute... [09:12] him89; thank you very much...for putting your effort to help me [09:12] wired connections dont [09:12] PerryArmstrong, NP [09:12] you might wanna get back to 8.04 or wait for 9.04 :) [09:13] him89, but on ubuntu and kubuntu, once saved, i don't have to set them again. [09:13] hmmmm then looks like something is wrong [09:13] him89, very sorry to trouble you, but i'm out of my league here. [09:14] avishek, not a problem [09:14] is there any config file that i have to update now that i have swapped my dual core cpu for a quad core?

I remember that installing a package (something like i915) from apt fixed a minor resolution problem once in hardy or so [09:18] avishek: you should add the interface you are using e.g. eth0 or eth1 [09:18] natschil, he has i915 running [09:19] it was shown in lsmod [09:19] debia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/143972/ [09:19] lvlefisto: i'm not familiar on this procedure; i'll google it up. many thanks for your help [09:19] him89: PerryArmstrong: what is the resolution now?

[10:00] italian === bruno is now known as Guest71666 [10:00] Hi all [10:00] "windows causing it to break" too late for that. i am re-synching as we speak! i guess ill find 2TB somewhere to back up all data and recreate raid in ubuntu [10:00] server film emule [10:00] linky0ne maby on a dedicated system but not on user systems [10:00] PerryArmstrong: I saw ur post. in the xorg.conf, there are 2 screen sections. 2 monitor sections, 2 device sections etc [10:00] it will be a dedicated file server [10:00] can the virtualbox 2.14 edition and the ose 2.0 edition exits the same time ? [10:01] i just purchased an intel server grade board for this system [10:01] linky0ne im a little supprised that it doesnt have onboard raid5 [10:01] PerryArmstrong: the 2nd Screen section has more info than first, so can u delete the first ? (from Section "Screen" until EndSection) [10:01] can the virtualbox 2.14 edition and the ose 2.0 edition exits the same time ? [10:01] Can someone give me a clue on uninstalling virtualbox properly? I removed it with apt-get uninstall virtualbox* --purge, but even if the software is gone, at startup I still have the kernel trying to load a module and failing to do so, and I still have users and groups generated by the vbox installer. [10:02] PerryArmstrong: the same for monitor and device [10:02] is there a way to use the macbooks multitouch guesteres like to fingers for scrolling etc. on ubuntu? [10:02] myth keep asking the same question and the answer will endup being no [10:02] ok [10:02] with HW raid controller failures is it possible to "see" raid on a replacement system? [10:02] PerryArmstrong: I mean Section "Device" and Section "Monitor" [10:02] ghindo, quick question, after doing the dd there's nothing on my usb drive. Why is that? [10:02] can the virtualbox 2.14 edition and the ose 2.0 edition exits in a computer the same time ? [10:03] myth: yes [10:03] linky0ne yes because it is set up as one drive before the os loads [10:04] um wait [10:04] linky0ne you mean if the card breaks? [10:04] exactly [10:04] rio,i get the ose editon from the apt-get, and the 2.14 edition from the webdite [10:04] Auslegung: Wait, I thought you said that you had got the image onto the USB drive? [10:04] i know sw, you can re-import cause raid info is stored on all drives [10:05] debia; done i think even InputDevice is also repeated [10:05] linky0ne im not sure i guess it depends on how it tells the raid setup [10:05] i am nervous that hw raid is proprietary [10:05] PerryArmstrong: InputDevice is repeated only for "wacom" a few times, the kbd and mouse should be there [10:05] debia; i actually copied the second part of code fromubuntuforums...which one of friends provided me [10:05] ghindo well, I ran the code and didn't check in the USB, I assumed it worked [10:05] debia; ok..now whats to be done.... [10:06] linky0ne yea cause the windows implamntation totaly isnt [10:06] PerryArmstrong: wait. InputDevice is not repeated [10:06] Auslegung: I thought you had mentioned that the USB drive was empty to begin with? [10:06] debia; there are 2 input devices..but the identifiers are different [10:06] ghindo yeah, it was, and it still is [10:07] PerryArmstrong: only the Screen, Monitor and Device has duplicate. pls backup ur xorg.conf first. then edit xorg.conf as root remove duplicate sections and save and exit [10:07] psywiped - ok, well thanks for clearing that up, now im off to find 2TB extra of storage! thanks again! [10:07] Auslegung: Hm. Have you tried viewing hidden files or booting from the USB drive? [10:07] PerryArmstrong: second set in the duplicates has more detail, so I suggest remove the first one for each [10:08] debia; i have done that as you said before [10:08] ghindo, yeah, both, and there's nothing there. When booting from it says cannot locate file Linux or something to that effect [10:08] nathan7-> I installed ati driver from their site and Hardy works perfectly. Works better then nvidia actually [10:09] debia; now whats to be done? [10:09] PerryArmstrong: restart X-server [10:10] debia; it says command not found [10:10] PerryArmstrong: after closing all programs and saving all data etc, as a shortcut to login/logoff you can try Ctrl+Alt+Backspace [10:10] hi, how can i solve a font problem? not a big deal, but after installing word processor software some font settings are now changed and i don't like it, how do i perform some detailed font configuration with nice gui? [10:10] Auslegung: I'm not sure. I'll look around a bit, but I'm almost out of ideas [10:11] debia; so should i just logoff [10:11] debia; and then login back?? [10:11] PerryArmstrong: for the new config to take effect, you have logout and login (shortcut as above) [10:11] debia; ok i'll do that then [10:12] Can someone give me a clue on uninstalling virtualbox properly?

[12:24] I want to run Ubuntu, Vista, and 7 all on my computer [12:24] erUSUL: ok thanks. then ill just go the apt-get update && dist-upgrade way [12:24] Lint01: sudo aptitude install linux-source [12:24] Empathy, so what's the problem? [12:24] I'm confused by the Windows Vista bootloader and how it works. It seems like 7 and Vista share the same bootloader [12:25] theres no boot data for 7 stored on its partition that i can find === jean is now known as Guest82206 [12:25] Well Grub is going to be the bootloader in the end [12:25] and I really dont wanna mess things up [12:25] So I don't see the problem [12:25] should it be relatively easy to get grub to load both vista and 7? [12:26] Empathy: just install ubuntu last of the three [12:26] and you can always use Windows' recovery console to restore the Windows bootloader [12:26] Empathy, yes [12:26] Chowder: h opefully i can do that from my 7 disc if i need to, Vista came preinstalled >< [12:26] Empathy: key things you need are an Ubuntu live CD [12:26] other OS cd's [12:27] This is how I do it [12:27] Install Ubuntu first [12:27] Load live CD after Ubuntu and resize partition to give free space to other operating systems [12:27] Windows usually takes up the rest [12:27] i dont have the luxury of installing Ubuntu first [12:27] lyhana8: Je suis fatigué, so leaving now.. [12:27] true [12:28] my lappy is a Vista preinstall :) === Guest82206 is now known as Jean [12:28] well then just resize the Vista partition [12:28] same thing, different order [12:28] ubuntu should be last [12:28] okay. [12:28] bazhang, it doesn't matter === Jean is now known as Guest1153 [12:28] Chowder, sure it does. [12:28] I've multibooted many times. In the end the outcome is the same [12:29] you reinstall GRUB [12:29] I'm chopping off my 7 partition right now, do i just leave it unformatted? [12:29] hi [12:29] can anyone help with the following error message [12:29] gedit has not been able to detect the character coding [12:29] im trying to install ET [12:29] Empathy, you could make an NTFS partition if you wanted to but I personally prefer it if the OS does it on its own [12:30] well i dont wanna format it since im probably going to use ext2 [12:30] Could not open the file /home/XXXXXX/Desktop/et-linux-2.60.x86.run using the Unicode (UTF-8) character coding. [12:30] anyone help? [12:31] Empathy, why would you format your whole drive? [12:31] Windows doesn't use ext2 [12:31] nono just the portion opened up by the partition shrink lol [12:32] you can use an ext2 driver [12:32] Chowder: Windows can use ext2, fs-driver.org [12:32] grawity: not for the boot! [12:32] exactly [12:32] also, what is a suggested size for a minimal install of Ubuntu? [12:32] Lint01: I have heard fs-driver supports booting... [12:32] Empathy, a minimal install? [12:32] hi all, i got this irritating prob lem, my internet connection dies after every 10 or so mins.....i have not configured it as susch it auto detects the setting [12:33] how to solve this prob [12:33] Empathy: as in no GUI. [12:33] no [12:33] just for minimal use [12:33] Lint01: Ah, wait. it doesn't. [12:33] Empathy: how big is your hard drive? [12:33] i.e. im only going to be booting into it to do a few things, but i do need a GUI [12:33] 320GB, Currently 120 Vista (mostly Used) 120 Seven (little used) [12:33] !minimal [12:33] 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 [12:33] er [12:33] sorry [12:33] 160 160 [12:34] im thinking ill chop 10 off the Seven partition to give to Ubuntu [12:34] should be fine [12:34] remember that you're going to need a swap partition, though [12:34] Hi there, can someone help me get my system running? [12:34] how much for Swap? [12:34] vixus, please explain your problem in detail [12:35] Empathy, how much RAM do you have? [12:35] 4GB (if I use a 64 bit install im not sure if i will yet, my school network is a little peculiar) [12:36] Empathy, in that case you probably don't even need a swap. If anything make the swap space small like 256MB [12:36] Nexuiz 2.5 Is out! :D Get it now! http://alientrap.org/nexuiz/ http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/4821677 [12:36] can anyone help me [12:36] Tiffer9000, just ask [12:36] I've got both the generic and rt kernels installed. Of course there's that issue with nvidia drivers where they can only work on one kernel at a time. This is fine as I'll only be using the rt kernel for music production. Problem is it keeps booting in low graphics mode and I want to stop this. I'd love to use my second monitor as well, but I'm not getting my hopes up :) [12:36] tiffer@CADDY:~$ dir Desktop [12:36] et-linux-2.60.x86.run windows_vista_with_service_pack_1_x86_dvd_x14-29594 [12:36] my\ new\ os [12:36] tiffer@CADDY:~$ sudo sh ./et-linux-2.60.x86.run [12:36] sh: Can't open ./et-linux-2.60.x86.run [12:36] Tiffer9000: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[12:37] Empathy, np [12:37] vixus, google [12:37] Chowder, yeah, well I was messing with nvidia drivers all last weekend [12:37] im trying to install Enemy Terrortry [12:37] Tiffer9000, use the pastebin next time. [12:37] territory [12:38] i just did [12:38] i didnt know [12:38] Chowder, I'm thinking there probably is no solution.. I might just dual-boot ubuntu, one with the rt kernel and one with the generic. [12:38] im new sorry [12:38] its ok [12:38] vixus, you could do that [12:38] but im thinking, as im running on 64bit that ET wont run at all [12:38] I'm just currently weighing the pros and cons of reinstalling everything :P [12:38] have a second root partition for one kernel [12:39] and share a /home partition inbetween the two [12:39] yeah [12:39] my whole system's a mess right now though. I need to do something about those windows partitions. [12:39] i just got warcraft going on ubuntu took me only 15min! [12:39] Tiffer9000: Enemy Territory? [12:39] erUSUL #> yes [12:39] Also I have to ask a bit about driver support in the 9.04 beta... I couldn't get my wireless driver (Atheros N wireless) working in 8.10, in all my ASUS M50 had pretty sketchy driver support, how's things looking in 9.04? [12:39] just make sure the /home/$USER dirs are different so you don't get any errors regarding config files [12:40] ok [12:40] Tiffer9000: at least with nvidia should be no problem. install the 32 bit comp libs [12:40] ok so im having skype issues in 8.10 my quickcam messenger wont work [12:40] how do i do that as im new to ubuntu [12:40] Empathy, I only use the LTS releases so I really wouldn't know. However you might try reading the release notes. [12:40] thats for erUSUL [12:40] mkay. [12:41] Tiffer9000: when you install flashplugin-nonfree they get installed to. [12:41] hopefully i can access the package libraries from behind my school's access restriction agent with the beta, its a bit of a pain :\ [12:41] Empathy, also try searching the wiki for how-to's on wireless [12:41] alright, well I'm going to give my PC setup a good long think. Cheers guys [12:41] erUSUL #> you mean flash plugin like for firefox? [12:42] Tiffer9000: yes; that plugin is 32bit too [12:42] erUSUL #> i have that installed [12:42] Tiffer9000: then you should be ok [12:43] ho un problema con evolution che fino a ieri sera riceveva correttamente la posta mentre ora nn ne vuole saper [12:43] e [12:43] !it [12:43] Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese.

(now that you are on the point) [12:57] a5x7: a .sh file is a 'shell script' - shell scripting is actually very powerful [12:57] PerryArmstrong: great...

[12:59] irmandos: I'm not very sure it's a good place to *start*, but a comprehensive bash guide can be found at http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ [13:00] salve [13:00] a5x7: the shebang (e.g. #!/bin/bash or #!/usr/bin/env bash) determines what is used to interpret whatever is in the file [13:00] a5x7: that's one way, but you can do much more [13:00] Piople,exist compiler Visual C++ for Linux?

However, since the bash shell is very powerful - you can also create extensive scripts. In that case you might want to follow some scripting conventions [13:02] that didnt work [13:02] int_: both gcc and Visual C++ use THE SAME language -- C++ . [13:02] int_, of course its not.. but it compiles the c++ source [13:02] MusicGenious: make sure you goto the settings and turn the cube on [13:02] clearly [13:03] Yes, i clearly see how much more powerful the bash shell is compared to DOS [13:03] i got it, and now i dont.... hmmm [13:03] a5x7: bash is a shell - dos is an operating system [13:04] ikonia: And DOS shell is command.com [13:04] ok, so a shell script could operate the same as bash? say I could create my own "bash shell"? [13:04] a5x7: You know .bat/.cmd files? They are shell scripts for DOS. [13:04] grawity: I didn't say it wasn't === peter_ is now known as Guest47858 [13:05] grawity: yes i am new to linux though [13:05] a5x7: a script is just a set of commands that the shell executes, there is a good guide on http://www.tldp.org [13:05] a5x7: a shell is merely an interpreter. Use the interpreter of your choice to create a script [13:05] Can I get some help. I'm totalt newb in using ubuntu [13:05] whats super button?

[13:21] !bluetooth > ohletmeinnowjesu [13:21] ikonia; but i did get 4 desktops by changing those settings [13:21] ohletmeinnowjesu, please see my private message [13:21] Lint01: no [13:21] PerryArmstrong: yes, because they are THE CUBE settings [13:21] lonejack: no it wont [13:22] PerryArmstrong: Horizontal virtual size : set this value to 4 - "virtual desktop" eg: the cubes sides [13:22] lonejack: the next LTS is Karmic Koala, coming in October 2009 [13:22] ikonia; ohh...so if i enable cube then it gets so...so without the cube we have to try this way....now i understand [13:22] PerryArmstrong: correct [13:22] SiDi: thx [13:22] ikonia; thank you....i had the wrong info before [13:22] greetings earthlings [13:22] PerryArmstrong: no problem, thats why I went through this to explain [13:23] land: Greetings from planet earth. How can we help you? [13:23] * land smiles [13:24] is there any way i can create a minimalist version of linux from scratch? [13:25] Lint01: this is not LFS support [13:25] Lint01: this is ubuntu support [13:25] hey guys well, my ubuntu 8.10 is installed on a dell vostro and the adapter doesnt show up in the system tray blueetooth manager [13:25] whois land [13:25] i am [13:25] land: I realise that [13:25] the link that ubottu gave says this early on in the article : "For Gutsy Gibbon (7.10) and above most of the instructions below are obsolete" [13:26] ikonia? [13:26] what LFS has to do with it? === Mud|afk is now known as Mud|lerenfietsen [13:26] Lint01: sorry - I meant that from lint01 [13:26] land: sorry, I meant that for lint01 [13:27] sure [13:27] * land smiles [13:27] land: You might be interested in Xubuntu. It is lighter, and more efficient than Ubuntu with GNOME or KDE, since it uses the Xfce Desktop environment, which makes it ideal for old or low-end machines, as well as thin-client networks. [13:27] What does this mean? ou just need to have mplayer, mencoder and ffmpeg binaries on your path (the more recent, the better) [13:27] christian_: those commands have to be in the $PATH enviornment variable [13:28] usr13, what DE does xUbuntu use? [13:28] land: xfce [13:28] oki [13:28] i see [13:28] christian_: if you install them they will automatically be put in the path [13:28] Hi [13:28] no other way i can create a minimal version? [13:28] land: use minimal iso [13:29] land: remove the packages you don't want [13:29] scunizi: oki. thanks! how do i chack if i have them or not? [13:29] http://rafb.net/p/HKijcT58.html please look at my fglrx problem [13:29] land : there also are lxde / awesome / openbox / e17 / fluxbox available [13:29] ikonia; i need you to have a look upon this from the second post onwards...http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7011467#post7011467 [13:29] land : but xubuntu has official canonical support [13:29] tech0007, where can i get one? [13:29] christian_: System> Admin> Synaptic Package manager and search for those names [13:29] ikonia; remember the second post...the 1st is solved [13:29] land: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [13:29] is there any stupid reason UBUNTU is not finding the directory to restart the cups server via /etc/init.d/cupsys restart ? !!!! [13:30] great thanx! [13:30] hi @all [13:30] need to check that out! [13:30] how to create a bootable flash disk drive from XP? [13:30] Agiofws: "sudo" ? [13:30] land: You can roll your own, but it's difficult. You have to open the ISO image and start editing and redoing and experimenting. [13:30] scunizi: is this the same as the add/remove menu ? [13:30] i want to know the main difference between antivir and clamav [13:30] i will [13:30] christian_: more flexable.. more detail.. etc.. === cloud__ is now known as cloud [13:31] w/ minimal iso [13:31] land: You copy the ISO image to your hard drive and mount it and start working with all the many various files therein. [13:31] Marcelinho87: clamav is an antivirus [13:31] yeah [13:31] scunizi: oki.. i can install the packages from here too? [13:31] christian_: yes [13:32] scunizi: and it is normal that i get a list of many things to install? [13:32] i have a squid proxy and want to filter malware in the net at the proxy? i have only a local solution at the moment === patrick is now known as Guest83203 [13:32] christian_: those are called dependancies.. in add/remove they just don't show them to you. [13:32] land: But there is some info about just that... let me see if I can find it. BRB [13:32] okay, clamav is an antivirus, but antivir too, isn't it ? [13:33] usr13, what do you mean? [13:33] Marcelinho87: maybe.. never heard of antivir.. google has though :) [13:33] scunizi: ok.. and if i search up the names i showed you in the first "post" and install them like this. Everything os ok? [13:34] okay, what do do you think which antivirus software should i take ? [13:34] christian_: yes.. search tag for install, search for the next, tag. etc.. and then click the apply button [13:34] i have a proxyserver (ubuntu server distibution with squid) [13:34] Marcelinho87: if you need an antivirus for a router for a network containing windows machines, i'd say you block the ports used for blind attacks, and voila [13:35] Marcelinho87: but i think clamav has the ability to scan local windows networks === duff is now known as dt3k [13:35] scunizi: is it ok to search up name, mark for installation, search up new name, mark, and press apply in the end? [13:36] christian_: yes.. that's what I was getting at in the last post. [13:36] i want to block www.virus.com for example [13:36] scunizi: oki.. thanx for the help! [13:36] so that the users aren't allowed to go to the website [13:36] christian_: np :0 [13:36] land: See: http://www.fwlug.org/fwlug-forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=347&p=1243&hilit=+iso#p1243 [13:36] :) [13:36] Marcelinho87: use DNS rules for that [13:36] usr13, k [13:36] christian_: :) I'm typing in the dark.. [13:37] Marcelinho87: or IPTABLES if you want to block port ranges [13:37] is there a better program than brasero for burning audio cds? it just crashes everytime on two different computers [13:37] Tetsuo: k3b [13:37] dns rules ? [13:37] what is it ? [13:38] Marcelinho87: i wouldn't be able to explain you as i never did that myself, but if your linux box is the router, then you can have it forward the DNS requests to your ISP's DNS server [13:39] Marcelinho87: (this is something related to bind9, i let you search), and then you can add DNS rules on your linux box, that will forward www.virus.com to localhost/forbidden.html for instance [13:39] no, my linux box isn't the router [13:39] i have the proxy between the clients and the rouer [13:39] Marcelinho87: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -p tcp -s ###.##.###.## -j DROP [13:39] whats the best applet program to use ? [13:39] for desktop eyecandy goodness? [13:39] screenlets probably [13:40] Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". How to fix it please? [13:40] Marcelinho87: Where eth1 is the ethernet port from which your unwanted url is coming. [13:40] does anyone know how ubuntu implements hardware detection on boot? [13:40] jdu: basiclly through the kernel probing your hardware [13:40] sorry usr13, what do you mean ? [13:40] jdu: same as most other distros [13:41] ikonia, is there a way I can manually do it [13:41] jdu: just load the modules you want [13:41] ikonia, thanks [13:41] clients --- switch -- proxy -- router --inet [13:41] jdu modprob [13:41] Marcelinho87: Was just giving you a command that would implement a firewall rule to block a specific URL. [13:41] usr13: thanks for the tip :) didnt know we could filter domains with iptables [13:42] Marcelinho87: You might be interested in firestarter [13:42] ablyss, thanks modprobe is what I need, I think [13:42] jdu: dmesg | grep to see if the system loaded it [13:42] SiDi: you can't filter domains with iptables [13:43] why isn't it possible with clamav ? [13:43] Marcelinho87: Firestarter will create and enable a firewall script for you, and you can go from there and edit the script as you so desire. [13:43] Marcelinho87: clamav is for virus detection. [13:43] bandung [13:44] Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". How to fix it please? [13:44] hey guys, having a hard time detecting my bluetooth adapter on my vostro 1400, can someone help me out? [13:45] yes and when i go to www.badscript.com the clamav will block the site, correkt ? [13:45] can anyone help me setting up my USB to load my miniiso setup? it fails. [13:45] SliderMan: what miniiso ? [13:45] can clamav block sites, which have viruses ? [13:45] ohletmeinnowjesu: that's one of the things that I've never tried on my vostro.. not even sure I opted in for that option. :/ [13:46] Marcelinho87: If you use IPcop or Smoothwall there is a URL filter add-on [13:46] hi all, does anyone know if there is some java channel? I can't find any [13:46] MrSoundless: ##java [13:46] ohletmeinnowjesu: usb adapter? bypassed any usb hubs? [13:46] ikonia someone gave me this to setup since i dont have a cd-rom device https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [13:46] d some help over here-- [13:46] !install > SliderMan [13:46] SliderMan, please see my private message [13:46] when i install an ATI driber i get this --> ./ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run -c|--check [13:47] no wait [13:47] ty ikonia, but it says You need to be identified to join that channel where can I do that >_< [13:47] SliderMan: that is the wrong URL - that URL ubottu has just sent you will show you have to make a bootable image [13:47] !register > MrSoundless [13:47] MrSoundless, please see my private message [13:47] Error: ./default_policy.sh does not support version [13:47] default:v2:i686:lib::none:2.6.28-11-generic; make sure that the version is being [13:47] correctly set by --iscurrentdistro [13:47] what schould i do?

[13:47] scunizi: its built in if you have a rletively new vostro [13:47] i use ubuntu server [13:47] Marcelinho87: You only need to worry about virus if you are a MS Windows user. [13:47] ablyss: its a a built in card [13:48] and a normal telekom router [13:48] ablyss: it doesnt show up on bluez [13:48] ohletmeinnowjesu: yep.. christmas '07 .. 1400. windows use to blow up on it regularly.. but the ubuntu side was always stable.. now no issues with the win side.. weird.. [13:48] ikonia mind if i PM you? [13:49] yes, windows vlients surf about the proxy (squid) [13:49] SliderMan: just ask in the channel, more people will see it then [13:49] ok thanks anyway ;) [13:49] scunizi: yeah thats about the same time when i got my vostro, so you dont know if yours works? [13:49] ohletmeinnowjesu: never tried it.. [13:49] ohletmeinnowjesu: i've had more luck using Kde bluetooth software than gnomes. if it's realistic, try kde [13:50] ablyss: well [13:50] ohletmeinnowjesu: ablyss or just add the kde bluetooth stuff to gnome.. :) [13:50] ohletmeinnowjesu: or try blueman [13:50] ikonia for the setup you gave me i need 700mb usb which i dont, i only have 128mb [13:50] hi, when using smtp.web.de i get smtp: "401 - sorry, server maintenance". is this true? web.de status page lists no outages. this happens since hours. [13:50] ablyss: well how do i know if linux is even recognizing the hardware? [13:50] scunizi: that's always possible too :) [13:51] SliderMan: DSL Linux or puppy linux might fit on that [13:51] SliderMan: ok - so apply the same technique with the minimal cd [13:51] Marcelinho87: What kind of firewall router do you have? [13:51] does this mean I need to upgrade my bios: [ 0.436109] weird, boot CPU (#0) not listedby the BIOS. [13:51] brasero sucks, and whoever recommended me K3b before, it doesnt even support mp3 files [13:51] how to check what 3d drivers do i have installed [13:51] ablyss: before i go kde splunking i wanna know if its not just a linux-bluetooth compatibility issue [13:51] ikonia UNetbootin will work? [13:51] scunizi thanks but i am interested in ubuntu [13:51] SliderMan: apply the same technique in the URL ubottu sent you with the minimal cd [13:51] Tetsuo: it does.. maybe you don't have the right libraries installed.. [13:52] SliderMan: then if the minimal ubuntu install will work.. ikonia is the one to guide you properly.. I haven't played with it. [13:52] I've been trying to configure a static ip address in network manager in 8.10 and network manager initially forgot the static configuration. Then it appeared to bring the interface up, but there wasn't a connection. I pinged my gateway, but it told me it was unreachable. The light on my gateway is showing a connection - lshw is telling me I'm connected - I,ve filled in resolv.conf with the necessaries. Can someone tell me where I've go [13:52] ne wrong [13:53] scunizi, thanks for your replay anyway <3 [13:53] arborhelp: what static IP did you set ? [13:53] ohletmeinnowjesu: 'dmesg | grep Bluetooth' [13:53] arborhelp: Are you sure you did the configuration for the right interface? [13:53] arborhelp: does your router WANT to give you a dhcp address ? [13:53] hi all [13:53] ohletmeinnowjesu: could be just a bluetooth thing.. [13:53] Did you type in the IP address correctly? [13:54] it was a static ip for my laptop [13:54] arborhelp: does your router WANT to give you a dhcp address ? [13:54] tech0007: the grep doesnt return anything [13:54] anyone know what channel to find help with a ext3 problem? [13:54] arborhelp: what static IP did you set ? [13:54] dijenerate: are you using ubuntu ? [13:54] yes [13:54] the static ip was 192.168.1.88 [13:54] dijenerate: see if we can help [13:54] arborhelp, NetworkManager in 8.10 ignores /etc/network/interfaces which would be a usual place to define static ip addresses [13:54] jaunty amd64 [13:54] alles scheisse [13:54] ohletmeinnowjesu: did u enable bluetooth in the bios? what vostro is it? [13:54] arborhelp: ok - so thats a private address, is that reserved in your routers dhcp pool ? [13:54] ohletmeinnowjesu: don't forget that there is an on/off switch for lots of stuff on the vostro in the bios [13:54] Someone knows a good video-cut-software for Linux? [13:54] arborhelp: see if the correct interface is using it. Go to CLI terminal and type: ifconfig eth0 [13:55] trying to format a 16TB volume in ext3 as a single LUN using 4k bs [13:55] Cruelty, I have found it all somewhat flaky [13:55] no it's not reserved in my dhcp routers pool [13:55] bad idea or good idea or what should I look out for as far as problems go? [13:55] Cruelty, might be that I ran it on a ca. 700 MHz pc [13:55] arborhelp: ok - so first thing, can you ping the address on your localhost eg: ping [13:55] arborhelp: (where eth0 is the device that is connected to your network) === Aegiron is now known as Virk [13:55] arborhelp: eg: ping 192.168.1.88 [13:55] i ifconfig'd already and it's happily telling me i'm connected on 192.168.1.88 [13:56] dijenerate: do you need a 16TB volume ? [13:56] I just need some simple shit where I can add Text to a Video... Like an URL as an Watermark. ;) [13:56] dijenerate: that's what will dictate if it's a good idea or not [13:56] arborhelp: Are you using a IP that is outside of the DHCP pool? [13:56] yes I can ping localhost [13:56] it's in a Drobo http://www.datarobotics.com so don't want to have to break it down [13:56] arborhelp: no - not localhost, can you ping 192.168.1.88 [13:56] tech0007 & scunizi: i. its enabled ii. its "binded" to the wireless switch(ie turning on the wifi adapter should turn it on) [13:56] arborhelp: from your localhost [13:56] dijenerate, you might try a different filesystem all together [13:56] Cruelty: title software.. [13:56] being lazy but if that will cost me... I'll do 8TB [13:57] yes I can ping 192.168.1.88 [13:57] title software? [13:57] What does that mean? [13:57] dijenerate: it won't cost you anything, don't understand what being lazy has anything to do with it [13:57] Is it a name? [13:57] arborhelp: and what is your gateway address ? [13:57] it lets me format it, but I want to make sure I'm not setting up for disaster [13:57] dijenerate: it supports 16TB so thats fine [13:57] 192.168.1.254 [13:57] Cruelty: you want to put "titles" on the video.. text. watermarks etc.. [13:57] ext3 does? [13:57] arborhelp: And you can not ping the router? If so, check your cable. [13:57] arborhelp: and from localhost that can't be pinged [13:57] dijenerate: yes [13:57] ok... cool [13:57] oooaaaooo: a [13:57] thanks [13:58] tech0007: i. its enabled ii. its "binded" to the wireless switch(ie turning on the wifi adapter should turn it on) [13:58] nope 100% packet loss [13:58] I just saw a lot of chatter on the web about the max being 8TB with 4k bs, but I was allowed to do 16TB without even a warning so just wanted to be sure [13:58] arborhelp: Is your router 192.168.1.1? [13:58] arborhelp: ok, please pastebin the output of "netstat -rn" [13:58] can I backup my home folder of ubuntu 8.10 and use it with 9.04? [13:58] Tetsuo: yes, [13:58] dijenerate, wikipedia says 16tb is max [13:58] ok [13:59] thanks a lot [13:59] my router is on 192.168.1.254 - can you tell me how to pastebin [13:59] [04/04/09||14:57:27] Cruelty: you want to put "titles" on the video.. text. watermarks etc.. <- Yes, right...

I was just cruzing Synaptic Package manager to locate something however I think that ubuntuforums.org or www.google.com/linux might be quicker to find what you need.

[14:14] im having a little trouble with the 9.04 install, my asus laptop has an ambient light sensor and the installer seems to activate it and then turn my monitior's birghtness to dead minimum, causing the screen to be nigh impossible to see [14:14] cremetorte: #linux [14:15] hett: audacity [14:15] oh [14:15] nlh, do you see the file if you type: ls [14:15] thanks, usr13 [14:15] I will try it :) thanks man [14:15] Empathy, Try installing from a 8.10 upgrade :x [14:15] no, i only see desk doc ...

I installed it once, but couldn't find that plugin [14:16] oh, ok...sry [14:16] yo what can i use thats like windows live messenger for a webcam [14:16] :P do you have ubuntu 8.10 on your lappy already Empathy ?

All the help ive seen on the web points to installing windows and then installing the windows drivers to enable bluetooth support before it can be detected by linux. I dont have the $$ to buy a copy of xp just to enable something that I already paid for ...Ive enabled it in the bios but it doesnt show up on "bluez" or most of the cli comman [14:17] Empathy, That sucks =[ [14:17] usr13: as I see audacity is converting my pl3 file right? [14:17] austin, amsn has webcam support [14:18] yeah it just stalled out after my screen went dark, ill give it a shot from 8.10 though [14:18] *crosses fingers* [14:18] hett: Sorry, I don't even know what a pl3 file is. [14:18] :P good luck Empathy [14:18] usr13: uh, sorry, mp3 I mean :) [14:18] nlh, so is "Desktop" not in your home directory? [14:18] jmz: yeah ill need it, im going to be trying to boot Vista, 7, and Ubuntu 9 on here [14:18] :0 [14:19] i think i might try the 9.04 on my desktop but use fluxbox instead of gnome : [14:19] usr13: like winamp has...it's just a plugin for that goddammed player [14:19] /home/nlh/Bureau jdu it is right [14:19] Empathy, I don't discrase my systems with the evul M$ softwarez [14:19] xD [14:19] i donno if i understand right [14:19] hett: What are you talking about? [14:19] nlh, oh sorry [14:19] i do, theyre a necessary evil for me being a regular lan-party attending gamer lol [14:19] nlh, I was assuming english addition of ubuntu [14:19] :P [14:20] Empathy, my system is a gaming desktop :o [14:20] usr13: i'm talking about a plugin which can make my song run 2x faster, for example [14:20] oh CRUD. my 8.10 disc is X86, and my 9.04 is AMD64 [14:20] woops [14:20] rofl [14:20] redownload time eh [14:20] nlh, so if you go in the Bureau, where I assume the .run file resides, then type ./et ... [14:20] i think you can play songs faster 2x 4x etc in VLC [14:20] yep [14:21] hmm...k, will try that dt3k, thanks. [14:21] np [14:21] nlh, you said you don't know if you understand: what do you need to know? [14:21] hett: If you are just wanting an mp3 palyer that will speed up ar slow down the playback, I do not know of one. Sorry. [14:22] Nautilus does not recognize this type of place. jdu [14:22] ^bump [14:22] nlh, I was assuming english addition of ubunt [14:22] usr13: ok, thanks, anyway :) [14:22] I'm trying to configure my firewall without learning iptables [14:22] any suggestions? === ninstaah is now known as ninstaah-at-koen [14:23] thesnark: firestarter [14:23] jmz: welp got unetbootin doing its thing now :) [14:23] People that have the PulseAudio Manager installed, could you tell me how much latency you get on your sink inputs? [14:23] Empathy: what is that unetbootin?> how does that work? [14:23] thanks usr13 [14:23] :P [14:23] thesnark: Are you talking about firewall on your desktop computer? Or a stand alone firewall router? [14:23] hi folks - Is anyone else having trouble accessing the Ubuntu wiki [14:23] unetbootin makes your usb thumb drive a bootable live disc [14:24] ScotEng: yeah it's down [14:24] Only thing im doing atm is messing with GIMP and listening to music :x [14:24] empathy.. cool.. [14:24] usr13 my own pc [14:24] I have a project to finish up later though rofl [14:24] nlh, sorry, I just assumed, since you said ~/Desktop doesn't exist but ~/Bureau exists, that you weren't using english version of ubuntu [14:24] thesnark: Ok, try firestarter [14:24] Oli``:thanks, any idea how long? [14:24] right jdu i use french version [14:24] wiki.ubuntu down? [14:25] yeah error404notfoun1 === MadMax is now known as Guest42606 [14:25] daftykins: hmm, strange... [14:25] can someone help me with getting my bluetooth adapter on my vostro 1400 detected? All the help ive seen on the web points to installing windows and then installing the windows drivers to enable bluetooth support before it can be detected by linux. I dont have the $$ to buy a copy of xp just to enable something that I already paid for ...Ive enabled it in the bios but it doesnt show up on "bluez" or most of the cli comma [14:25] Mornin' folks [14:25] nlh, so since you downloaded it to the desktop, it should be in the appropriately named directory. Once you are in it, you can make sure it is there by typing: ls [14:26] !firestarter > thesnark [14:26] thesnark, please see my private message [14:26] anyone know if there's a way to set a max size on the trashcan and/or disable it all together? [14:26] ohletmeinnowjesu, is there any kind of wireless switch which turns off wireless LAN and bluetooth at the same time? [14:26] ScotEng: it's hopefully just a reboot. I'm sure somebody's on it [14:26] hett usr13: are you talking about an application to play MP3s or a physical portable media device? if you just want an a application to speed up/slow down playback, VLC and ALsaplayer will do the job. For a portable media device, my Samsung U3 had the ability to change playback speed. pretty crap in every other regard (horrible sound quality) but I'm guessing it's not the only samsung MP3 player to include such a feature [14:27] I assume audacity can do it? [14:27] Aquahallic: you can add an option to your right click menu to delete a file immediately [14:27] etnlIcarus: Thanks for the info. [14:27] If I have a fold not permited to I read,execute or write: "---" But inside the fold there are files with permition: -rx for me.. Can I read this file??? how could I do it? if I'm not permited to read the fold where the file is [14:27] daftykins: ive "softwired" the wifi and bluetooth into a single switch command via the bios options [14:27] henry_BR: no [14:28] nlh, did you get it to runN? [14:28] daftykins: and i currentyly have that switch in the on position but only my wifi adapter is showing up in "network manager" while nothing is showing up in "bluez" [14:28] jrib: so, why does exist the comand: chmod -R ? [14:28] how is it "softwired" exactly? [14:29] henry_BR: to recursively set permissions. I don't see how it's related to your question [14:29] henry_BR: sudo chmod +w file.name.here [14:29] kodok_terantok_pintu [14:29] jrib: the problem with that is... I have a frontend program that runs on the box as an appliance and when deleting stuff it just fills the trash up... I don't use a mouse with this appliance so I can't exactly right click... would be best if there was a way to just disable everything from going to the trash [14:30] Aquahallic: umm, I'm not sure I understand. Why don't you use « rm » then? [14:30] henry_BR: But what file is it? [14:30] henry_BR: You can use sudo to read it. [14:30] Aquahallic: you mean you press the delete button after highlighting a file? [14:31] henry_BR: sudo less file.name.here [14:31] ohletmeinnowjesu, i always disconnect the battery and mains from a laptop so it has no power source to reset all internal features, see if that makes it reappear. obviously have your switch in the "on" position once you restore power [14:31] henry_BR, or you can change permissions of directory. In order to enter a directory, it must have executable permissions [14:31] no JDStone i was smoking [14:31] can u repeat all step to make it run pls? [14:32] jdu: But that directory had better be one of his own. [14:32] jrib: no... I have mythtv running on a box... so there's no mouse connected to it.. .only an IR remote.. so when you highlight a movie and delete it you have a 3 or 4 gig file that sits in the trash [14:32] usr13, sure [14:32] Hi. I accidentally modified the file associations for fonts. How can I make the fonts automatically open with the standard font viewer? [14:32] nlh, first cd into directory, then type: ./name_of_file_you_want_to_run [14:32] jdu: A novice user can wreck a system just by changing permissions. [14:33] cd what's that? [14:33] daftykins: it never appeared in the first place... ive never used it... [14:33] sry i didn't understand, i'm a newbie of linux [14:33] usr13, but a user can also fix the system... [14:33] usr13: like -x /bin/chmod ? [14:33] jrib: i'm trying say(i speak portuguese :\ ).. for example. If I set /home/henry/Docs "go=" and "u=wrx"... The file.odt is in Docs. But the file.odt is set to ugo="wrx". Can another account write or read the file.odt? Because if none can acess the files in home... why would I use to the chmod -R? [14:33] nlh: And use the tab key to auto complete. In other words, use ls to verify the name of the file and start typing it in but use tab key to finish. [14:33] nlh, its alright. cd is a command to move into a directory (folder) when you are at the command line [14:34] join /#rails [14:34] nlh, it means change directory [14:34] grawity: hahah, yea. [14:34] henry_BR: Directory permissions don't apply to files inside. If directory has +r, you can list files. If it has +w, you can create/rename/delete files. That's all. [14:35] henry_BR: no, no one can read file.odt that doesn't have execute permissions on the parent folder I believe. chmod -R means change the permissions on this directory and everything under it. [14:35] ohletmeinnowjesu, it's possible you've got a laptop without bluetooth but the motherboard BIOS etc etc refers to it due to other laptop variations of the same model possessing it [14:35] grawity: Yea, that is correct. Unless you use -R switch. [14:35] nlh, once you are in /home/nlh/Bureau or where ever you saved the file. From the command line, you can type: ./name_of_file [14:35] jdu: i must write in on terminal ? [14:35] nlh, yes [14:35] usr13: But then it will apply permissions to files too, so it's still correct. [14:35] then i just must write cd? [14:35] it say nothing when i do it [14:36] nlh, sorry cd alone will move you to /home/nlh [14:36] nlh: Where is this file? [14:36] on my desk [14:36] nlh: ls -l [14:36] daftykins: ok, how do i know whether i do indeed have a bluetooth adapter on my laptop mobo? [14:36] henry_BR: what are you actually trying to accomplish? [14:36] nlh, so you want "cd /home/nlh/Bureau" right? [14:36] nlh: See that it is actually executable. [14:36] Aquahallic: ok, well I understand now but I don't know how to do what you ask [14:37] jrib: ok, thank you :) I'm set wrx --- --- to my logs folds. But I ask me if I create a new file log.. if it will be permited or not to group and others [14:37] yeah jdu [14:37] nlh, as usr13 said "ls -1" will allow you to see if the file is actually executable [14:37] nlh: If not, first do chmod +x file.name.here [14:37] nlh, I mean "ls -l" [14:37] ohletmeinnowjesu, i used to remove the small covers underneath the laptop to locate a bluetooth module, but i wouldn't recommend that really. it sounds like you should've checked all hardware was working in the Windows install before nuking it? if it came with it... i guess you got it with ubuntu preloaded or something? [14:37] nlh: sudo chmod +x file.name.here [14:37] henry_BR: it will not [14:37] i write l -l or smth and it make it : drwxr-xr-x 3 nlh nlh 4096 2009-04-04 14:36 Bureau (bureau = desk) [14:38] jrib: ok, thank you :) [14:38] what must i do now? [14:38] nlh: Where is the file? [14:38] nlh, you want to run "chmod +x file_name" on the file [14:38] on the desk [14:38] nlh: cd to the directory where you saved the file. [14:38] nlh: cd Desktop [14:38] daftykins: no i got it without windows [14:39] usr13, he's using french version [14:39] Aquahallic: I have a semi-solution: you can go to edit -> preferences -> behavior -> include delete command that bypasses the trash and then use shift-delete to delete the file (I think this works) [14:39] what must i write after it? [14:39] does ubuntu have big mem kernel support for rt [14:39] daftykins: and when i looked at the invoice it says clearly BLuetooth [14:39] daftykins: so [14:39] nlh, after you are the right directory, check to see that it is there with the command: ls [14:39] Aquahallic: actually, you don't even need to enable the menu, shift-delete seems to work anyway [14:39] when i write cd desk it say /Desk$ [14:40] daftykins: i think its a linux thing, not being compatible with the bluetooth adapter on this mobo [14:40] nlh, if it is there, you can run it. [14:40] jrib: the problem with that is... there's no mouse or keyboard connected... it's all controlled by an IR tv remote [14:40] DarkSideRemix2.tar.gz et-linux-2.60.x86.run mumble-1.0.0 xchat-gnome.desktop [14:40] nlh, thats from "ls", right? [14:40] does ubuntu have big mem kernel support for rt? [14:40] yeah jdu [14:40] ohletmeinnowjesu, do you see it under 'lspci' or relevant terminal command? [14:41] nlh, so now run "./et-linux-2.60.x86.run" [14:41] nlh: ./et-linux-2.60.x86.run [14:41] permision denied usr13 [14:41] nlh: sudo ./et-linux-2.60.x86.run [14:42] does ubuntu have big mem kernel support for rt? [14:42] Good evening / morning. [14:42] nlh, but you might need to run: chmod +x et-linux-2.60.x86.run first [14:42] how can I remove unused old kernels from system? [14:42] when i write sudo ./et-linux-2.60.x86.run it ask for my pw but i can't write nothing :x [14:42] usr13: [14:43] ubuntu wiki dead?

[14:47] I just took an update that had a kernel update.. this always breaks my nvidia driver install.. .I'm doing this remotely so I can't bounce the box until I compile the kernel driver for the new kernel... isn't there a way for me to be booted into kernel X and then repoint to my newer kernel sources and compile my driver for my new kernel?

[14:51] some people get problems Erasmus but i find it works fine for my 8800GT on two DVI displays [14:51] hello there [14:51] how are u [14:51] k for some reasons with 8.10 and 177 drivers i can boot in gdm [14:51] brings me to prompt [14:52] if i use 8.04 with the 169 drivers it works fine [14:52] what is ur name [14:52] one way i tried was to install from the hardware drivers app [14:53] and activated it from there that didnt work [14:53] so next step i tried to install all 177 packages from synaptic [14:53] ohletmeinnowjesu, if you got it with ubuntu i'd recommend pursuing support [14:53] then did sudo apt-get nvidia-glx-177 [14:54] restarted and boom same thing [14:54] you restarted after installing from hardware drivers yeah? [14:54] yes [14:54] what's your card? [14:54] then it wont let me in gdm [14:54] 8800gt [14:54] works fine in 8.04 with 169 drivers [14:55] should i try 180 drivers instead [14:55] there's 'nvidia-glx-173' as well [14:55] that doesn't work either [14:55] what about ATI 3200 driver in 8.04 [14:55] daftykins: no i got it with freeDOS [14:55] I'm trying to figure out how to automount a partiton the "ubuntu way" i.e. not using fstab. currently it mounts as soon as I click it in nautilus, but I'd like to automate that on login so that other programs can access it immidiately as well... How to do? [14:56] Ienorand: using fstab what do you mean by "ubuntu way" ?? [14:56] you may as well try every version Erasmus , though why change if 169 works? === Sepheebear is now known as sephee [14:57] erUSUL: Think it uses FUSE in some way, since there is no entry in fstab, but it's still able to automount on nautilus-click. [14:57] dt3k: thanks man, I've done it with VLC and scaletempo audio filter. [14:57] Hey, I want to do a full install to a flash drive and it seems to go well but at 94% I get a grub fatal error. Anyone knows how to fix this? [14:58] dt3k: see ya. gtg [14:58] Ienorand: if you want something mounted without you mounting it (by using double click on nautilus you are mounting it under the hoods) you either use fstab or kernel automounter afaics [14:58] Any way to do something like this? [14:58] find . -name '*.txt*' | rm [14:58] Python1320: by doing it? [14:59] jrib, how would I put the find results there? [14:59] daftykins: hey if the drivers dont work it there a way to revert back without reinstalling ubuntu? [14:59] Python1320: what you probably actually want to do is use the -exec switch with find [14:59] thats what i do everytime lol [14:59] hmm thanks [14:59] Erasmus, sorry i've no idea, i've never tried running more than one driver at once [14:59] hi everyone [15:00] Hello Starlong.

[15:32] I set a root password... [15:32] bercik: oops 9.04* [15:33] Green-Dragon: how did you set a root password ? [15:33] usr13: its kinda hard to find requested info online [15:33] PsynoKhi0: yes, as i remember good [15:33] anyone else having issues with download speeds via wireless in jaunty === serenity is now known as s3r3n1t6 [15:33] when I sudo the password I entered their is the same as my account and the same on last.fm (well, used to be) === Virk is now known as virk === s3r3n1t6 is now known as s3r3n1t7_ [15:33] Green-Dragon: how did you set the root password [15:33] mib_ocd07ecd, what does NetworkManager say when you try to connect to a wireless network or does it do anything at all? [15:33] dn5a-b: I can not help you with cable issues, only Ubuntu. Sorry. [15:33] dreamcoder: jaunty chat is in #ubuntu+1 [15:33] Hi guys, need help getting my bluetooth up and running in ubuntu 8.10 on a vostro 1400 : http://pastebin.com/m521683e9 [15:33] dn5a-b: cat 6 is a wire spec, rj 11 and rj45 are connector specs [15:33] oh yeah sorry i totally forgot [15:33] lol [15:34] dn5a-b: But what you more than likely need is cat5 cable. [15:34] jdu: it does nothing at all, the option for wireless is there but nothing happens [15:34] bercik: ok then, that's your problem: fglrx won't support anything older than the HD2xxx series in X 1.6 and later... X 1.5 and fglrx 9.3 is the best you cen get, or go for the opensource drivers === Hasnain is now known as hasnain[dead] [15:34] ?? I think I am confused... what do you mean? When I sudo that password used to be the same as my user password. [15:34] dn5a-b: cat 6 is gigabit enet cable [15:34] Green-Dragon: what did you do to set the root password [15:34] n.it [15:34] okay, maybe root password was the wrong word. [15:34] Green-Dragon: you cannot use the root account - so tell me what you did to use the root account [15:34] mib_ocd07ecd, so it doesn't show any wireless networks etc? [15:34] LargePrime: is there a chance there's something wrong with the cable? [15:34] Hi, has anyone gotten a2dp bluetooth audio to work on jaunty? I could pair fine at first, but never connect, even though pavucontrol displayed the bluetooth headset. Now however, I can't even pair at all! [15:34] The password for when I sudo. [15:34] PsynoKhi0: how could i downgrade to 1.5? [15:34] jdu: nope, not a single thing [15:34] bercik: btw AMD doesn't support X 1.6 in their official releases yet afaik [15:35] Green-Dragon: right - then the root password is disabled - and no-one is using the root account [15:35] mib_ocd07ecd, and networks aren't hidden? [15:35] Hey all, I have a question about bluetooth. I have never been able to run bluez-utils, although my bluetooth seems to be detected. It works in another OS. I'm using 8.10, on a vostro 1510 [15:35] hola algun latino?, [15:35] Press "unlock" on the little box. [15:35] Green-Dragon: what little box [15:35] dn5a-b: But what you more than likely need is cat5 cable, and not a crossover cable but just standard cat5 straight cable. [15:35] dn5a-b: i have not read your question, i just answered cause what i saw you asked. let me read up or pm me you posts [15:35] Green-Dragon: your changing your story every minute [15:35] dreamcoder, will PyKeylogger play things back in a different app? [15:35] jdu: nope, it can be found by anyone using a wireless device [15:35] Can anybody help me please? [15:35] i dont know read the manuals [15:35] Green-Dragon: let me assure you the root password is locked by default, so no-one is using it, [15:35] bercik: I'd stick to Hardy Heron or Intrepid Ibex, running X server 1.5 on top of Jaunty is well beyond my knowledge, sorry [15:36] Green-Dragon: if you feel your machine has been compromised re-install your OS [15:36] System -> Administraton -> Users and Groups [15:36] !ask |mathmec [15:36] mathmec: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [15:36] The box their. But that was unimportant. [15:36] hehe [15:36] Green-Dragon: if you are worried - you have to re-install your OS [15:36] ikonia: he's looking at the users and groups window, i believe [15:36] LargePrime: He is trying to connect via wired connection to a cable modem and is in Poland. [15:36] bercik: but as I said, the open source ATI drivers should work just fine [15:36] PsynoKhi0: oh. Thank You for help :) [15:36] mib_ocd07ecd, the output of iwconfig suggests to me that your wireless card works. if you run "sudo lshw" what information does it show about your wireless card? [15:36] I considered that. And I proabally will. [15:36] bercik: np [15:36] What is the command to reverse dns from the cli [15:36] ? [15:36] But here is the thing: Why is my encrypted partion unmounted? [15:36] Green-Dragon: then there is nothing more to discuss, I assure you though no-one is logging in as root on your machine [15:36] LargePrime: But he also has a WiFi connection going at the same time. [15:36] PsynoKhi0: i dont think so.. i need good 3D for games [15:36] e3co: same as a forward lookup [15:37] e3co: host 12.34.56.78 [15:37] e3co: like normal DNS -- 'host', 'nslookup', 'dig'. [15:37] LargePrime: So he has eth1 and eth0 [15:37] im trying gnomeboy advance but it says error: dependency is not satisfiable: python [15:37] thanks [15:37] Let me look for some of the strange things in the system log. [15:37] Green-Dragon: there is nothing strange in your system log that you pasted [15:37] I have restricted ubuntu how do I install from it? [15:37] bercik: meh... I feared I was about to get that kind of comment heh [15:37] dn5a-b: can you try another cable?. i dont know if ubuntu will use two connections [15:37] LargePrime: See: http://pastebin.com/da56bfe3 [15:37] Green-Dragon: and even if there is - it doesn't matter you have to re-install [15:37] jdu: http://www.mibbit.com/pb/LulDGl [15:37] PerryArmstrong: u there ? [15:37] I've copied my .tomboy folder over to a new installation. My notes aren't showing up in the new Tomboy. I've still got the backups in .tomboy/Backup, how do I restore those? [15:38] LargePrime: you mean disconnect the one connected and connect a different cat cable? [15:38] Green-Dragon, everythign seems fine. Ubuntu sometimes acts up. Perhaps re-install and see if that fixes your strange unmount? or try updating. [15:38] bercik: Hardy Heron, HD4830 and fglrx 9.3 here... it screams! compiz, wine, mplayer at the same time, not a sweat [15:38] LargePrime: just wanna clarify [15:38] LargePrime: And he is not sure if he has proper cable installed. [15:38] mib_ocd07ecd, thats pan0 you want ath0 [15:38] I would like to use the dell BH200 bluetooth headset, is it still not supported ? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=804607 [15:38] dn5a-b: i am thinking it will show if cable is the problem [15:38] PsynoKhi0: pretty nice [15:39] jdu:mine has never been pan0 [15:39] modem shows theres a weak or non existant pc link [15:39] LargePrime: [15:39] Rytmis, u there? Today it booted up properly twice, without a problem, and I thought it was the wifi switch (it was off both times) but the third time it failed again.

I would suggest trying to manually connect with iwconfig.

[15:56] yeh something like that [15:56] mib_ocd07ecd, quoting "ESSID (or Network Name - in some products it may also be called Domain ID). The ESSID is used to identify cells which are part of the same virtual network" [15:56] that 1 thx c0p3rn1c [15:56] mib_ocd07ecd, so yes [15:56] KenYoung: I thought so. but you can install it. apt-get install nmap [15:57] LjL jmz so you cannot invite someone to a private chat?

[15:59] Empathy, Linux is strange :) [15:59] who has ubuntu 9.04 [15:59] jmz: nope. it crashed after the drives got partitioned [15:59] KenYoung: FYI you can also check on your own machine: netstat -pantu [15:59] I used it [15:59] !9.04 > commander_ (commander_, see the private message from ubottu) [15:59] Didnt like it [15:59] And Empathy thats gay =/ [15:59] Mathmech: Wish I could help, but that is not an area I am experienced in [15:59] Empathy, try the alternate cd [15:59] usr13 is irssi in your applications list? i installed it and cant find it. prolly have to command line right? [15:59] badpenguin86, Okay, thanks anyway :) [16:00] I tried 9.04 but i didnt like it [16:00] KenYoung: Then it should work. I do not know why not. Did you run nmap from the client machine? [16:00] jdu: then from what i just read the essid would be the name of the network but on the side of the router it is called ssid [16:00] the loading screen looks better though [16:00] Tiffer9000: after that you can just logoff and your video drivers should work like that [16:00] rofl === ROSHA is now known as RoozbehOnline [16:00] How can I transfer some unpartitioned space to my current partition? [16:00] jmz: and i had to use the graphics safe installer for the first time ever, the last time i installed it i didnt need the graphics safe version [16:00] ok all saved [16:00] <_bam> Could someone recommend video editing software? [16:00] mib_ocd07ecd, same as far as I know [16:00] who has timevault? [16:00] so i just need to logout and log back in? [16:00] and my laptop hasnt changed one bit since i last installed ubuntu [16:00] _bam: "best" is too vague :) [16:00] LargePrime: irssi is a CLI irc client. Runs from console or terminal. [16:00] I tried different software, but it makes another partition [16:00] I want my main one to grow [16:00] Empathy, Just stick to 8.10 ? :P [16:00] Aynone have a good guide to making my ATI Radeon Drivers work... I have problems when I try running Games in Wine [16:01] KillGutza have you tried gparted ? [16:01] my laptop has poor support under 8.10 :\ [16:01] Awh [16:01] debia, that's what I am using :D [16:01] jdu: oh right ok then , the network essid/ssid is called SKY62856 [16:01] maybe try a diffrent distro Empathy ? [16:01] any other good software to install in ubuntu for performance ???? [16:01] I would like to change the default group of a new file/folder I create with Nautilus. In the terminal it is easy to change the default group. I simply type chgrp and all folders I create with mkdir will have the new default group. But how can I change the default group for a nautilus session? Anybody knows? [16:01] KillGutza with that you can grow existing partition to include adjacent empty space [16:01] c0p3rn1c, I installed it, but can't find the blueman icon in the menu. what do i type? [16:01] usr13, no I ran nmap on the server machine. However I know outgoing ssh works on the client - I have numerous open sessions on it. [16:01] mib_ocd07ecd, good now you know what you are trying to connect to. [16:01] Matmech if you come across any links could you please forward them to me as well? I am having some headaches with it as well. [16:01] _bam: I use Kino for simple tasks and cinelerra for more advanced stuff [16:01] cant access the software repositories for any other distro on my campus network [16:01] unless im logged in [16:01] so id need sun java installed by default [16:01] !gparted [16:01] gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php [16:01] in another distro [16:01] I have kubuntu & ubuntu loaded on the same computer. I have sound out of kubuntu, but no sound out of ubuntu. Will they clash, or should they both work. [16:01] swiftarrow: it should be in your sys tray [16:01] KenYoung: Did you do: netstat -pantu [16:02] how can i install a bigmem kernel? [16:02] <_bam> PsynoKhi0: Thanks. I will research them. [16:02] Should I turn to 9.04 beta or wait for official ? [16:02] swiftarrow: system -> preferences -> bluetooth manager [16:02] so jmz: if you know another distro that has sun java installed by default i'd like to give it a shot :) [16:02] jdu: i knew what i was trying to connect to , the thng that is the probelm is that it says "unknown interface" for "ath0" [16:02] !pastebin [16:02] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [16:02] I don't think I can demount the running partition [16:02] KillGutza which way do you want ur partition to grow ? [16:02] _bam: otherwise avidemux (only heard of it) [16:02] mib_ocd07ecd, you might try NetworkManager again and act like you are connecting to a hidden network [16:02] _bam: np [16:02] mib_ocd07ecd, hmm [16:02] hi, how can i run .jar files [16:02] debia, the main one [16:02] usr13, "sudo netstat -pantu | grep ssh" returns "tcp6 0 0 :::22 :::* LISTEN 7031/sshd" [16:02] Empathy, it isnt to hard to get java installed :P [16:02] It has everything installed in it [16:03] jmz: it is when you cannot download it due to your school's absolutely ridiculous network policies [16:03] KillGutza "the main one" has ubuntu installed already ? is that one you are booted into ? [16:03] debia, yep [16:03] mib_ocd07ecd, .... a hidden network called SKY62856 [16:03] KillGutza what size is it currently ? [16:03] how can i direct firefox to use a specific net connection to retreve a page? [16:03] cant access package managers for any other distro w/o being logged in (requires sun java) except for ubuntu [16:03] c0p3rn1c, walmis, nope. do you know the command line? Perhaps I should mention that I'm using Xfce, but it's not showing up in settings, or in system [16:03] Empathy, how do you download the Ubuntu ISO's then ? :o [16:03] ~25GB [16:03] hi, how can i run .jar files [16:03] does ubuntu not use inetd or xinetd? [16:03] any good server packages that install php, apache, phpmyadmin ect (AUTOMATIC) [16:03] jmz; im logged into the network from my windows boot right now ;) [16:03] KillGutza is there free space next to it ? how much ? [16:04] KenYoung: Run nmap -p 22 from client. [16:04] Ahh [16:04] swiftarrow: blueman-applet then [16:04] jdu: no the network is not hidden, i cannot find other networks as well, there should be a min of 3 networks i should find [16:04] Tiffer9000, for development, use xampp [16:04] something like Xampp [16:04] swiftarrow: blueman-manager [16:04] 1.7GB [16:04] KenYoung: Your firewall could be blocking incomming port 22 [16:04] Aynone have a good guide to making my ATI Radeon Drivers work... I have problems when I try running Games in Wine [16:04] jdu: my computer is a amilo 1718 [16:04] c0p3rn1c, cool! that worked... [16:04] i just want to run a little website on my server which requires php, mysql ect [16:04] It has an minimum space requirement? [16:04] KillGutza you can't modify size of partitiion when you are booted into it [16:04] hi, how can i run .jar files [16:04] swiftarrow: great :-) [16:05] KillGutza because it is in use. You need to use the gparted "live" CD for that [16:05] mib_ocd07ecd, did you try though, NetworkManager is quirky sometimes and it may be that it simply isn't showing them but you could connect if you acted like they were hidden networks [16:05] debia, would booting on a live CD and using Gparted work? [16:05] nevermind :D [16:05] !gparted ! KillGutza [16:05] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [16:05] ohletmeinnowjesu, has it worked for you? try installing blueman, then run blueman-applet [16:05] Thank you debia :) [16:05] Mathmech: which drivers? [16:05] hi, how can i run .jar files? [16:06] can enybody help me plz [16:06] have 2gb of ram and for some reason everything dumped into ram and filled swap too [16:06] insan: java -jar filename [16:06] !of [16:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about of [16:06] usr13, I think it probably is a firewall issue, but I don't know which of the 6000 different firewall Unix-familly firewall schemes Ubuntu uses be default. What type of firewall does Ubuntu active with a plain-vanilla installation? [16:06] !ot [16:06] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [16:06] PsynoKhi0, I have a ATI Radeon Gigabyte HD4670, and I tried installing 9.3 from ATi's website. [16:06] Tiffer9000: just google "ubuntu apache php mysql" [16:06] KillGutza, gparted has it's own live CD, if you want. It is available as a small ISO online... just search. Also, most Ubuntu install cds also have a live part, which has gparted, though not perhaps the latest version [16:06] KillGutza be sure to unmount this partition. make a note the name of the disk and the partiton before shutting down, you cna check this using command: "mount" (without quotes) and checking what device is mounted at / [16:06] swiftarrow: no, did it you? [16:06] I would like to change the default group of a new file/folder I create with Nautilus. In the terminal it is easy to change the default group. I simply type chgrp and all folders I create with mkdir will have the new default group. But how can I change the default group for a nautilus session? [16:06] KillGutza you are welcome, goodluck [16:06] KenYoung: Do you have firestarter installed? [16:07] Mathmech: ok, what's wrong? [16:07] ohletmeinnowjesu, yes, or I think so. I have no bluetooth device to check it with right now. [16:07] ohletmeinnowjesu, have you installed blueman? [16:07] swiftarrow: then how do you know? [16:07] swiftarrow: yeah [16:07] PsynoKhi0, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7011836 [16:07] swiftarrow: do i need to restart/. [16:07] try hitting alt-f2 and type blueman-applet [16:07] So, I am completely a rookie to linux based anything. Presently I have downloaded a bunch of programs and have been using them but what areas would be most helpful to learn? [16:07] ohletmeinnowjesu, try hitting alt-f2 and type blueman-applet [16:07] usr13, I have no idea. I certainly didn't explicitly install it, or any other firewall, but if it comes with Ubuntu by default, I have it. ps ax does not show any process named firestarter running. [16:07] Help please [16:08] KenYoung, iptables [16:08] swiftarrow: yeah the applet is running, but nothing shows up [16:08] s3r3n1t7, Thanks. [16:08] hey, how do i stealth a port? [16:08] ohletmeinnowjesu, ok, you have the icon in your systray? [16:08] KenYoung: Well, you could just flush all iptables rules: sudo iptables -F [16:08] have 2gb of ram and for some reason everything dumped into ram and filled swap too i have tryed already sudo swapoff && sudo swapon -ae [16:08] mib_ocd07ecd, unfortunately I have little experience with amilo. Probably the end of my help is: 1) try to use iwconfig or (2) act like they are hidden networks or (3) disable/reenable wireless from NetworkManager or (4) kill NetworkManager or (5) you may need to ask someone else [16:08] swiftarrow: well i had bluez launched and it hasnt changed to a diff icon [16:09] usr13, OK, I'll look into what iptables is doing. Thanks very much for your help! [16:09] swiftarrow: ill try to restart [16:09] ohletmeinnowjesu, close bluez. [16:09] KenYoung: It would not show a firewall in running processes. [16:09] can I boot ubuntu server from a cd on a headless server and then ssh into it and do the install? [16:09] KenYoung: iptables -l [16:09] ohletmeinnowjesu, and then re-launch using blueman-applet [16:09] Mathmech: the drivers look fine [16:09] hello [16:09] Mathmech: what version of Wine are you using? [16:09] KenYoung: But if you type firestart you should find out if firestarter is installed. [16:09] how do I add servers in xchat on ubuntu? [16:09] I would like to use the dell BH200 bluetooth headset(only 35 euro), is it still not supported ? (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=804607) Would you recommend another stereo bluetooth headset ?

Nor is the a command firestart in my path. [16:10] __HELLO__What type of financial programs are best? (Anyones) [16:11] mib_gq9fdptn, sorry. unfortunately I have little experience with amilo. I suggest 1) try to use iwconfig or (2) act like they are hidden networks or (3) disable/reenable wireless from NetworkManager or (4) kill NetworkManager or (5) you may need to ask someone else [16:11] PsynoKhi0, I just typed Apt-get install Wine [16:11] hi, i set up a postfix mailserver with virual users saved in mysql, everything works fine, except the "forwarding" . log say unknow user , but there is a foo@domain.tld forward rule in database [16:11] !swap [16:11] swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info [16:11] hi, i know you should answer this everyday, but i'm writing a tutorial, and I want to know exactly which codec pack I should download to run .mkv (matroska) files without having future problems. :-) [16:11] xsbyme: after a fresh boot? [16:11] Jgouldie: I only know of 2.. gnucash and.. ahem.. one other that I can't remember the name of right now [16:11] Jgouldie: depends on your application, I use Homebank and have used Gnucash in the past [16:11] mib_gq9fdptn, you may want to look up information specific to your wireless card. [16:11] Jgouldie: search in synaptic for finance, money or something like that [16:11] even afther a reboot yes :/ [16:11] !alternatives [16:11] To change the default applications system-wide, use 'sudo update-alternatives --all' in a terminal.

[16:13] wont allow me to exec that command [16:13] Mathmech: so Wine 1.0 or so... http://www.winehq.org/download/deb [16:13] KenYoung: But you might also have a router on your network that is blocking prot 22 [16:13] mib_gq9fdptn, sorry for not being able to really help. good luck! [16:13] please, does anybody know the answer to my question? [16:13] hello I am using Ubuntu 7.10 and I like it a lot. I really don't want to upgrade. [16:13] PsynoKhi0, I checked, it's 1.0.1 [16:13] But, is there a way I can get the latest packages for it? [16:13] usr13, Would that disable iptables? THe last thing I want to do is run two firewall systems, since I don't know how to configure one. [16:13] is there a stream for it? [16:13] hai [16:13] KenYoung: If so, you could have sshd listen on another port. Maybe 222 [16:13] swiftarrow: no [16:14] Jgouldie: why don't you check http://www.linuxrsp.ru/win-lin-soft/table-eng.html [16:14] swiftarrow: i see the applet, but none of the buttons/options are selectable [16:14] Led_Zeppelin, you may need to enable unofficial repositories / backports [16:14] PsynoKhi0 i also tryed sudo swapoff && sudo swapon -ae [16:14] Mathmech: Guild Wars worked like junk in 1.0.1 for me, upgraded to the latest development version and it's fine [16:14] Led_Zeppelin, 7.10 is getting pretty old though [16:14] KenYoung: YOu probably do not have even one. [16:14] Led_Zeppelin: you can add new repos in /etc/apt/sources.list [16:14] PsynoKhi0, Okay, I'll try uppgrading :) [16:14] Check to see if you have a firewall script. If you don't, then chances are that you do not have a firewall. [16:14] i uninstalled pulseaudio and now X is crying, how can i remove that from my session ;p [16:15] I would like to change the default group of a new file/folder I create with Nautilus. In the terminal it is easy to change the default group. I simply type chgrp and all folders I create with mkdir will have the new default group. But how can I change the default group for a nautilus session? [16:15] Heh, found a fix for my problem. It was a stupid mistake. I forgot to switch over a motherboard setting for primary video. It was set to PCI but the only video I had was onboard. [16:15] why can I get my wireless network activated. I did install the driver via ndiswrapper, but when it try to connect, nothing happens. [16:15] I'm a total new in using ubuntu. Before I was a vista guy. :-S [16:15] swiftarrow: what do you see that makes you think it works now/. [16:15] usr13, Then why don't incoming ssh sessions work? If there's no firewall, what is blocking ssh from a remote machine? [16:15] KenYoung: I do not think that the defalut install of Ubuntu includes a firewall package. [16:15] whats the link for multi line [16:15] xsbyme: does "top" show anything specific burning up your RAM? [16:15] no [16:15] jdu, its old but everything simply works for me. I upgraded to 8.10 lots of things were broken such as Virtualbox which hangs my windows xp. Which is def a no go for me... [16:15] KenYoung: Search me...??? It should work. Did you run nmap -p 222 from a client machine? [16:16] KenYoung: Sorry, I meant -p 22 [16:16] ohletmeinnowjesu, actually, I just see an applet in the task bar, that provides me with a window that I can use to scan for (nonexistant) bluetooth devices. I can scan, but there's nothing around. [16:16] debia, that is helpful [16:16] xsbyme: where do you see you ram and swap are full? [16:16] Take care folks and have a great day.

[16:17] usr13, Yes, on the client machine namps said "Host seems down, if it is really up, but blocking ping probes, try -P0" [16:17] swiftarrow: if you can scan that means your bt adapter's detected [16:17] Led_Zeppelin, then you want to research the correct repositories to add to /etc/apt/sources.list. When you are done with that, run "sudo apt-get update" to update your sources. [16:17] KenYoung: Again, you can flush all iptables rules with command: /sbin/iptables -F [16:17] ohletmeinnowjesu, yes, my adapter has always been detected. isnt yours? [16:17] Debia, i tried to log into a classroom this morning using Xchat on fedora but I could not get in. Is there a particualr reason why it might have not worked? [16:17] anyone help with server package install??????? [16:17] swiftarrow: no...that was my problem to begin with [16:17] KenYoung: Then port 22 is being blocked somwhere. [16:17] i uninstalled pulseaudio but it still tries to start when i login, throwing errors and not letting me in, how do i get rid of the session reference to it? [16:18] jdu, thanks. [16:18] usr13, Yes, I tried iptables -F, but that didn't fix the problem. [16:18] KenYoung: And it could also be a router that is between you and the client machine.

[16:18] i uninstalled pulseaudio but it still tries to start when i login, throwing errors and not letting me in, how do i get rid of the session reference to it?

[16:18] Jgouldie: sure, no problems [16:18] does any one know about amilo 1718 laptops [16:18] ohletmeinnowjesu, oh dear. then you need to find the kernel module. My bluetooth works in windows. do you see it in lsusb | Bluetooth ? [16:19] ohletmeinnowjesu, sorry: lsusb | grep Bluetooth [16:19] i uninstalled pulseaudio but it still tries to start when i login, throwing errors and not letting me in, how do i get rid of the session reference to it? [16:19] note the capital [16:19] KenYoung: If so, connect via crossover and try. Or, try a switch or hub instead. [16:19] i uninstalled pulseaudio but it still tries to start when i login, throwing errors and not letting me in, how do i get rid of the session reference to it? [16:19] anyone help with Xampp [16:19] When I try to open several different types of programs often times they are larger than the my screen but my screen is oversized [16:19] usr13, I doubt it's a router. I have the client and server are on the same LAN, for testing. It seems like the server machine is blocking the request. [16:19] is there a simple answer to this? [16:20] Tiffer9000, it's really easy. You dont need to install it. www,lmgtfy.com/?q=xampp [16:20] KenYoung: Check sshd's config file to see what port sshd is listening on.

[16:20] yes [16:20] KenYoung: /etc/ssh/sshd_config [16:20] usr13, It's listening to port 22. [16:20] Jgouldie: do you use compiz ? if that doesn't make sense, have you enabled desktop effects ? [16:20] ohletmeinnowjesu, try lsusb [16:21] i'm writing a tutorial and I want to know exactly which codec pack I should download to run .mkv (matroska) files without having future problems. can someone tell me which i should download or what i need to do? thank you :-) [16:21] If I say I do not know would that mean you would think less of me? [16:21] Something is blocking port 22 [16:21] I'm having a strange problem with synaptics touchpad in xorg, ubuntu hardy. lshal, dmesg, Xorg.0.log all seem to recognise it, but I can't move the pointer. What can I be missing [16:21] KenYoung: Switch to 222 [16:21] when I try to run firefox 3.0 I keep getting, "./run-mozilla.sh: 442: ./firefox-bin: not found" [16:21] Jgouldie: of course not. which version of ubuntu are you using ? [16:21] has anyone seen this before? [16:22] xbuntu [16:22] usr13, OK, I'll try that. [16:22] what verizon do you use? [16:22] version [16:22] someone here know how to install the Glabal Menu Applet http://gnome2-globalmenu.googlecode.com/svn/wiki/GlobalMenuWindows.png I was in this page but I don't understand the instrution very help, can someone help me? [16:22] Jgouldie: ubuntu [16:22] KenYoung: Something somewhere must be blocking port 22 Switch to 222 But first test to see if 222 is open. nmap -p 222 192.168.x.x from client. [16:23] swiftarrow: what am i looking for? [16:23] Kattollikisd, it's really easy. I did it awhile ago, and it's gotten easier. you can install it from synaptic, I believe. [16:23] I feel like I have jumped into the open source pool and I am drowning [16:23] Jgouldie: again I have little experience with xubuntu and don't think I can help much. In my case it used to happen because of some settings in "desktop effects" [16:23] desktop effect? [16:23] s [16:23] KenYoung: Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and change Port 22 to Port 222 and connect with: ssh -p222 user@192.168.x.x [16:23] Jgouldie: which is relevant only if you are running ubuntu. 3-d effects [16:23] !compiz [16:23] Compiz (compositing window manager), for a howto see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager and more help #compiz-fusion [16:23] hmm [16:23] !compiz | Jgouldie [16:23] Jgouldie: please see above [16:23] anyone know of an app that can take a long mp3 and break it into segments? [16:24] how do you force eject a cdrom drive? [16:24] (what us compiz [16:24] ) [16:24] oh [16:24] KenYoung: But remember to restart sshd [16:24] hi guys, my server is very slow lately and I'm trying to decide if it needs upgrading.. It's an Intel Core-Duo 1.6Ghz with 1GB of ram, i'm running apache2 and mysql.. can someone explain about the columns on "top"... VIRT = swap memory usage? what about RES? [16:24] keres-> eject [16:24] keres, typing eject is a terminal will usually do it [16:24] swiftarrow, I don't think so, but i gonna check it out, brb [16:24] VIRT 126m RES 18m SHR 5144 (my "top" values for mysqld) is this bad? [16:24] I would like to change the default group of a new file/folder I create with Nautilus. In the terminal it is easy to change the default group. I simply type chgrp and all folders I create with mkdir will have the new default group. But how can I change the default group for a nautilus session? [16:24] KenYoung: etc/init.d/ssh restart [16:25] swift then how do i run it [16:25] the reason i want pulseaudio gone: alsamixer doesn't let me tweak all of the volume settings when it is enabled - i've removed pulseaudio and now can't log in - either tell me how to get ubuntu to stop trying to start pulseaudio automatically or else tell me a tool that can raise the front speaker volume from 80 to 100 while running in pulseaudio [16:25] usr13, Sadly, that doesn't work either. I changed the port to 222 in ssh_config, did "sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart" and then tried ssh -p 222 xxx.xxx.xx.xxx on the client. No joy. [16:25] ezerhoden__: well it always says device busy. I'm installing a game in wine that has a platinum rating, i assume this is a problem with ubuntu as i am _sure_ you can force eject it [16:25] What can cause a touchpad not to work when xorg.log reports that the driver is loaded? synaptics_drv.so [16:25] Kattollikisd, otherwise, it should be just downloading the file and adding it to the panel using the add applets window [16:25] KenYoung: Did you do nmap -p 222 from client? [16:25] usr13, The most frustrating part is that this used to work smoothly. It just stopped working a few months ago. [16:26] how do i kill my wired network ? [16:26] i cant put the files in opt as it says i dont have permissions [16:26] usr13, Yes, nmap -p 222 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx on the client times out, with the same message as before. [16:26] how can i direct firefox to use a specific net connection to retreve a page? [16:26] mib_kq8tyhzf: ifconfig eth0 down? [16:27] Good morning [16:27] swiftarrow, add applets windows? it is a program? [16:27] dings: says permission denied [16:27] mib_kq8tyhzf: yes, needs to be root [16:28] dings: thanks just realised [16:28] how can one change the default group for new files/folders? [16:28] hi [16:29] KenYoung: Try sudo /sbin/iptables --flush ; sudo /sbin/iptables --delete-chain [16:29] how can i direct firefox to use a specific net connection to retreve a page? [16:30] the firefox guys have no idea [16:30] does my wired network need to be down for my wireless to work ? [16:30] dudette: help umask [16:30] KenYoung: Are you sure you are using the right IP address? [16:30] I need a program that obtain who ip that my computer connected to it and obtain speed of live sent/receive , how can I do that?(terminal or apache and php base) [16:30] dudette: err, you said group? no [16:30] mib_kq8tyhzf: if you get an answer will you let me know [16:30] KenYoung: Can the client PC ping that IP? [16:31] i have installed mysql in ubuntu via command "sudo apt-get install mysql" but i dont know where is mysql.sock ? [16:31] largePrime: sure, whats the problem you are having ? [16:31] rvn: what version of ubuntu are you running? [16:31] usr13, ping works from the client machine, pinging the server. [16:31] dudette: you can use "newgrp" to log yourself into another group... you can probably also change your default group somehow, but are you sure that would be a good idea? [16:32] hello [16:32] LargePrime: look at about:config network section [16:32] Mark_ILB: hi === nathan7 is now known as ``` === ``` is now known as ` === ` is now known as `|` === `|` is now known as `-` [16:34] KenYoung: And what about nmap -p 222 192.168.x.x ? [16:34] * grawity kicks `-` [16:34] what does "unknown interface" mean, is it to do with the .inf file ? [16:34] KenYoung: from client? [16:34] usr13, That just times out. [16:34] mib_kq8tyhzf: i am trying to get firefox to look at my wired router for setting it up while wireless connected to inet === `-` is now known as nathan7 [16:34] ezerhoden__: egads ! greeks in my firefox [16:34] KenYoung: Then you just need to open a port, or find one that is open and use it. [16:35] got some simple quetsions... i am currrently running smoothwall as firewall appliance... what compares that I can setup on ubuntu that is not overly challenging [16:35] KenYoung: Did you flush iptables rules? [16:35] usr13, How do I open a port? [16:35] Mark_ILB: firestarter [16:35] usr13, Yes, I issued both of the commands you suggested. Still no joy. [16:36] usr13, Is it possible that the server machine has bad keys? [16:36] thats not an overly simple on is it [16:36] LargePrime: i just read some on a site, that both connat be up, but i dont no how true it is [16:36] i like some granular control [16:36] like my smoothwall [16:36] KenYoung: But what did nmap -p 222 say, from client? [16:36] hey folks... quick quesiton [16:36] mib_kq8tyhzf: this seems like the place to check [16:37] basically its a gateway/firewall [16:37] KenYoung: You first need to find out if something is blocking the port you are trying to use. [16:37] LargePrime: well i have been trying for 4 days to get my wifi working and still no luck [16:37] ezerhoden__: i opend about:config and got a "network filter" [16:37] quick question, I'm using xubuntu 9.04 beta, and when I plug my iPod in, nothing happens, with lsusb it shows it is connected, but it doesn't automount or show up in banshee [16:37] usr13, It sat for a while, and finally said "Note host seems down. If it is really up, but blocking our ping probes, try -P0" . But pings work. [16:38] !jaunty | lukeqsee [16:38] lukeqsee: Jaunty Jackalope is the codename for Ubuntu 9.04, due April 23rd, 2009 - Schedule in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyReleaseSchedule - Lots of breakage between now and April 23rd - Please join #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support. [16:38] KenYoung: Ok, then the keys are not an issue because you haven't gotten that far. [16:38] mib_kq8tyhzf: took me a few days to get mine. i had to update synaptic and install a propriety firmware. but it worked [16:38] KenYoung: From client try: nmap -p 113 192.168.x.x [16:38] KenYoung: Where 192.168.x.x is correct IP of server. [16:39] mib_kq8tyhzf: if you find an answer let me know. very curious here [16:39] usr13, If I add -P0 to the nmap command, I get "PORT STATE SERVICE\n22/tcp filtered ssh" (I have changed the port back to 22). [16:39] KenYoung: Sounds like your firewall is blocking it. Find out what firewall you are using and open. [16:39] morning all [16:39] im having some problems with sensors. when i run it i get this output: http://pastebin.com/m4a485f5e . but when i reboot and check the temperature in bios i read about 30.0C [16:39] is there a textfile or something that keeps a log of all applications installed on my PC? [16:40] ook... I have a silly Hardy issue. Trying to install sun-java6-jdk, but it's expecting a newer version of sun-java6-bin. However, sun-java6-bin won't upgrade. anyone else solve this problem? [16:40] usr13, I have not installed any firewall, and I guess by default Ubuntu uses iptables, right? [16:40] does anyone know what might be causing this? its as if systemp and cputemp is switched but then the coretemps is just wrong and wierd [16:40] KenYoung: Did you try sudo /sbin/iptables --flush ; sudo /sbin/iptables --delete-chain ? [16:40] shutterbc: did you reload synaptic? [16:40] usr13, Yes, I issued both of those commands. [16:41] did apt-get update before trying this, yes [16:41] !sensors | nasso [16:41] nasso: You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto [16:41] KenYoung: All linux distos use iptables, (if it is isntalled), a firewall package is just a front end that writes iptables rules for you. [16:41] erUSUL, how does that answer my questing? [16:41] LargePrime: and I'm pointed to the Hardy repos (this was upgraded from Feisty) [16:42] KenYoung: Check to see what has been installed on that system in the period of time in question. [16:42] usr13, So is all of that hosts.allow and hosts.deny stuff inactive by default? [16:42] shutterbc: did you reload synaptic [16:43] usr13, I'll never figure that out. I think I'd bebetter off doing a clean install of Ubuntu. [16:43] LargePrime: I ran apt-get update, reloaded synaptic -- yes. [16:43] KenYoung: Install firestarter [16:43] KenYoung: No need for that, just fix what you have. [16:43] usr13, OK, I guess that couldn't make it any worse. [16:44] LargePrime: oh wait, I think I misread my problem. Looks like sun-java6-jdk depends on an OLDER java bin than is installed: "sun-java6-jdk: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-06-0ubuntu1) but 6-07-3ubuntu2 is to be installed" [16:46] hi, i set up a postfix mailserver with virual users saved in mysql, everything works fine, except the "forwarding" . log say unknow user , but there is a foo@domain.tld forward rule in database [16:49] bah [16:49] hi [16:50] how do I use sed to turn : ar jeu = "Overlord II" [16:50] into only "Overlord II" [16:52] Hey anyone able to help with an issue i am having with storing display settings / [16:53] usr13, firestarter doesn't seem to do anything helpful. I think I'll do a clean install of Ubuntu. Then I'll at least be at a known starting point. Re-installation will take less time than I've already spent on this problem. Thanks again for your help!

[17:30] ok thanks guys, guess it's no solution [17:30] LargePrime: Either way, just put the IP address of the wired router into the address bar of your browser and there you go. [17:30] Hi, i'm having some trouble connecting to a samba share using nautilus. [17:30] media: Sorry, but I gave you the only 3 possible solutions I have.

[17:33] LargePrime: Do you have the ethernet device that is connected to the router set to an IP that is in the same subnet as the router? If so, that is all that is needed. [17:33] unop: if my wireless connection gateway is the same address (say 192.168.1.1) as my wired router that i want to configure, how does it know i want my wired router and not my wireless gateway [17:33] darkvertex ... im not aware of many development books for linux/oss stuff [17:33] hey, how to boot ubuntu into command line mode? its version 8.10 [17:33] kinda expect that if your going to do it on these platforms you already know how to dev [17:33] un canal en español [17:33] _Commander_ is truetype the standard?

[17:38] LargePrime: if 2 people have the same phone number, does using 2 different phones in your house to dial the number help? [17:39] usr13: mneptok perhaps i do not. i know i have used servers with many nic in them and one needed to be specific what nic a connection was using to get what you wanted done [17:39] LargePrime: Why don't you just change the IP address on one of the devices? [17:39] LargePrime: You can not have two devices on the same network with same IP address. [17:39] usr13: because i learn nothing that way? I should just do that [17:39] Hi everyone !

Additionally with those settings I can run dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null to load the system.. and the flicker then completely dissapears. [18:48] ikonia, what am i doing wrong?

This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. [18:54] I typed in "sudo ntpd" and nothing happened [18:54] It just went to a new line [18:54] what does that mean? [18:54] wtv: may be that will help. you may also check out the ati wiki [18:54] quibbler: i just set the default java to java 6 coz i have already 5 installed and was the default java path [18:54] Artelus: sudo ntpdate tick.usno.navy.mil [18:54] Artelus: open the package manager - search for the package ntpd - mark it for install [18:54] oldgeek i mean [18:54] hey how do you get to a pure console to install the Nvidia Drivers 180.** [18:54] anyway [18:54] quibbler: yes.

I have scoured the wiki, google for days... none of those options clear this up.. heck none of them describe my problem. [18:55] aah wow geez i should've thought of that LOL [18:55] mneptok: daemon should be ntpd [18:55] If I have home on a separate partition can I just install ubuntu64 over the top of reg ubuntu [18:55] thanks ikonia :) [18:55] Artelus: then you are running the NTP daemon [18:55] yup_: your in an Ubuntu suppourt channel, so why's that?

[18:57] jack|ass: #ubuntu+1 for jaunty discussion [18:57] i downloaded the rt2500 driver via wget. i just don't know how i install it. [18:57] Artelus: You simply need to set the hardware clock to same time as your system clock. [18:57] ikonia: hokay. [18:57] jack|ass: you could always set up the raid by hand, and then tell the installer to use those partions [18:57] usr13: I've told you four times already. I have done that 3 times, and it keeps resetting itself after I reboot.

[19:23] whats a good light weight file browser for an X Session [19:23] I was using 7.04 and it used rt2500 out of the box but i installed 8.04 and it uses rt2500pci driver [19:23] lanoxx-: while $GID is usually set to the gid of your primary group [19:23] Iceman_B|SSH: if you have write permissions I think you should be able to change the name as with any other file [19:23] yup_, more than likely, it can't hurt to try it [19:23] paragonc, pcmanfm, thunar etc. [19:23] Iceman_B|SSH: Just do it from the localhost, should be no problem. [19:23] I simply want to rename a file from within Windows, since I have a GUI there. but I get an error saying "Access is denied" [19:23] paragonc: thunar is what xfce uses afaik [19:23] how can I get openssl-0.9.8j ? [19:23] MrElendig, echo $GID results in an empty string :s [19:24] ndegruchy... hurt to try what ? [19:24] MrElendig, anyway, it works now exactly how i wanted it to [19:24] it's not always set [19:24] MrElendig, so thank you very much [19:24] ibeekman: what version is in the repos? [19:24] yup_, the directions on that page ... otherwise you could try a newer version of Ubuntu like 8.04 or 8.10 [19:24] don't remember if it's required by POSIX or not [19:24] I've been trying to get my new install of ubuntu to connect to the Internet, but no can do so far....any thoughts? [19:24] How to remove pending talks for dpkg? [19:24] HawkLion: can you ping your router? [19:25] I have a pending package that is causing a lot of problems... [19:25] MrElendig, one more question, the manpage of ntfs-3g says umask only affects files and folders that are NOT present, but infact it affects all the files and folders present or newly created [19:25] MrElendig: ah...haven't tried that yet... [19:25] !info openssl [19:25] openssl (source: openssl): Secure Socket Layer (SSL) binary and related cryptographic tools. In component main, is optional. Version 0.9.8g-10.1ubuntu2.2 (intrepid), package size 389 kB, installed size 836 kB [19:25] The pending triggers are causing a lot of problems. [19:25] usr13: thats the thing, I want my share to integrate seamlessly into Windows. THis is hardly seamsless. anyway, the file permissons are "-rw-r--r-- 1 ravi ravi 121651200 2009-04-04 19:41 Majora's Mask Orchestrations(2000)" [19:25] slart: openssl-0.9.8g [19:25] ndegruchy... i don't want to install 8.10. im just a newbie when it comes to installing drivers [19:25] *Slart [19:26] I need it to connect to some HPC resources [19:26] hi, i try to configure canon pixma mp630... i have installed the drivers . but when i try to print something, i have only the printer display, that the data are beeing printed, but the printer doesn't do anything [19:26] brb [19:26] Iceman_B|SSH: You need to change to writeable = Yes in samba share in file /etc/samba/smb.conf [19:26] ibeekman: if it's an important fix it will show up in the regular repos.. you could try find a package with the newer version but it's not recommended [19:26] for some reason nautilus doesnt work over ssh -X [19:26] and i cant get nomachine working either [19:27] Iceman_B|SSH: there are permissions in samba too.. the most restrictive is what you will see as a samba user [19:27] lanoxx-: I think it refers to files that don't already have a access bitmaks set (that is the case of all files in ntfs, since it don't store unix style bitmask permissions) [19:27] anyone running a comcast 1 megabit line out there? [19:27] MrElendig, ah i see, quite missleading [19:27] how do you get warsow to work with pulseaudio? [19:27] !anyone | kronos84 [19:27] kronos84: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [19:28] jacob_95: if it only uses alsa you can try running it with "padsp" [19:28] jacob_95: so in a terminal you'd run "padsp warsow" or something like that [19:28] Slart: I think the file creation permiisons are set to 0644, isnt that enough to change filenames [19:28] MrElendig: tried to ping router, but got connect: Network is unreachable [19:29] i read on wiki that files are usually masked against 666 and folders by 777, but since i set umask to 0077 both files and folders have 700 permissions, thats strange [19:29] tar -xzf what do i put for the driver name ? [19:29] lanoxx-: why is that strange? [19:29] can anyone please help? I'm kinda new to ubuntu... how do I see the configuration options that the packages I 'apt-get' were compiled with? [19:29] hi!, i'm currently using vista, but i dont like it at all i've used linux ubuntu a couple of times.... and it convinced me.... i'm going to change to linux.... but first i think i should learn the basics.... does anyone know any tutorial i could read on the internet? [19:29] Iceman_B|SSH: I don't really know.. there are lots of settings in samba, perhaps you've missed one or two.. I had it working on my server so I know it can be done.. it's just a matter of doing the configurations correctly [19:30] MrElendig: I think when I installed ubuntu completely on my desktop I lost the ethernet driver. [19:30] Iceman_B|SSH: unfortunately I can't give you any more specific advice since I don't really remember it all any more [19:30] SantiG, you should probably do some research on your hardware to make sure the transition is smooth [19:30] gb-or: apt-get source packagename will give you the full source for a package including the stuff that compiles it [19:30] in gnome, I click 'places' and then click on 'sq...' to mount my windows partition. if I wanted to search through my windows partition through the terminal, how would I do that? [19:30] jrib, because the wiki article gives the impression that even you a umask of 077 is used, files would still be masked agains a maximum of 6 which would turn exection right of, but thats not the case [19:30] santiG... ubuntu is way easy now for most common stuff [19:31] SantiG, also, the Wiki is a good place to look for common tasks to get yourself situated [19:31] what u mean? i need some good hardware to be able to run ubuntu? [19:31] Slart: alright, thanks anyway [19:31] Iceman_B|SSH: you're welcome [19:31] I think Ive found the prolem though [19:31] SantiG, no. it is just recommended that you check it works _before_ you install. You can do this by booting and using a LiveCD. [19:31] LjL, thanks, I'll try that [19:31] lanoxx-: is this for a mounted drive? [19:31] SantiG: Download or order an Ubuntu CD - it acts as an LiveCD - and start your computer from it. Then look around, test programs, etc. Check if the internet connection works (wireless is still a little problematic.) [19:31] I keep getting the error update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic everytime I try to use apt-get [19:32] yup_: i believe the rt2500 driver is available in ubuntu by default, with no need to compile it from a tarball...? [19:32] i've told to download the 64 bits ubuntu 8.10... [19:32] I keep getting the error 'update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic' everytime I try to use apt-get [19:32] i got an intel core 2 quad processor [19:32] ikonia; there?? [19:32] jrib, yes im mounting a nfts drive [19:32] lanoxx-: no, umask sets the mask on both files and directories. If you want something different to happen, use fmask and dmask instead of umask [19:32] SantiG: Should be more than enough. [19:32] SantiG: if this is your first time messing with linux I'd suggest the 32bit version [19:32] SantiG: unless you've got more than 3GB of memory [19:32] i've got 4gb ram [19:33] hey all, I'm having a problem with permissions and neither myself or two other friends can figure it out [19:33] jrib, ok will do that, it seems more secure to have no execution on files set [19:33] I keep getting the error 'update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic' everytime I try to use apt-get. [19:33] SantiG: then go with 64bit, that way you'll be able to use that last GB too =) [19:33] SantiG: just go for 64bit, there isn't really any reason not to do it now [19:33] lanoxx-: yes, it makes more sense to do that [19:33] How do I install ethernet drivers? [19:33] Any idea? [19:33] HawkLion: for what card? [19:33] can someone pm me with some help? [19:33] !pm | Slick666 [19:33] Slick666: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [19:33] ok perfect, i'll start downloading the 64 bits then :P [19:33] HawkLion: you have an unsupported ethernet card? [19:33] ok [19:34] HawkLion: if it is a wired card, then there is a 95% chance that the driver you need is included in the kernel [19:34] where is my windoze XP partition located in the filesystem? [19:34] ghi [19:34] so there's this partition on my harddrive that I want to mount everytime I log in [19:34] free1_: it isn't, unless you mount it [19:34] HawkLion: Do you know for sure it is not working? [19:34] can you set a "create mask = 0644" parameter in a Share definition in the Samba config ? [19:34] MrElendig: right [19:34] radau: add it to /etc/fstab [19:34] what command should I add to startup apps? [19:34] I have a binary I want executed only by a group of users, the file is marked 750, owned by root and part fo the special group I made [19:34] ok [19:34] free1_: if you've mounted it in the gui, it usually ends up in /media somewhere [19:34] HawkLion: What do you see listed in the network manager? Anything? [19:35] Any idea? [19:35] MrElendig: VIA Technologies VT6105 [19:35] I keep getting the error 'update-initramfs: failed for /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-11-generic' everytime I try to use apt-get. [19:35] free1....have fun mounting that lol [19:35] I added myself and root to the group and I can't execute [19:35] whats the "wiki" site someone told me about? [19:35] i'll take a look so i learn some stuff [19:35] is there ay reason why? [19:35] theDigitalAngel: pastebin complete output [19:35] jrib: can I mount it in the terminal? [19:35] usr13: There are no connections in the connection manager. [19:35] free1_: sure [19:35] SantiG, in the topic [19:35] hello, could someone please tell me what package in ubuntu provides the default wallpapers? [19:35] free1... yes you can [19:35] jrib: can you kindly tell me how? [19:35] Slick666: you don't need to add root to the group, just the user [19:35] SantiG, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ [19:35] thanks!! [19:35] !ntfs| free1_ [19:35] free1_: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE [19:36] Slick666: also, you need to logout and login again for the group change to take effect [19:36] MrElendig, jrib, why can't i modify permissions with chmod when i used a {u,f,d} mask [19:36] anyone know of a good app to apply ID3 tag files to mp3s? [19:36] free1_: basically: mount -t ntfs /dev/whatever /mount/point [19:36] HawkLion: Go to the terminal and type: lspci |grep ernet [19:36] lanoxx-: because ntfs doesn't have unix style permissions [19:36] free1.. also try downloading ntfs config gui. [19:37] jrib: thanks I will try it [19:37] jrib, so i have to decide on what i want and then stick with it? [19:37] jrib; any idea as to this post.. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7011467 ikoni can you also check [19:37] lanoxx-: the permissions are set at mount time, since ntfs don't support unix style permissions [19:37] lanoxx-: yea [19:37] lanoxx-: yeah. Or use a different filesystem [19:37] theDigitalAngel, do a 'sudo apt-get install -f' then try again. [19:37] ubottu: thanx [19:37] You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) [19:37] !es \ Nasra [19:37] Sorry, I don't know anything about es \ Nasra [19:37] paragonc: try mp3info [19:37] usr13: how do I make the vertical line? [19:38] PerryArmstrong: not really. Check that the package that provides that module is installed [19:38] marrow: does it auto lookup? [19:38] HawkLion: hold Shift, then press the key with \ | written on it. [19:38] !info id3 [19:38] id3 (source: id3): An ID3 Tag Editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.15-1 (intrepid), package size 10 kB, installed size 64 kB [19:38] HawkLion: Probably above the Enter key, upper case. [19:38] jrib, guess i will do that some time, do you consider unix style permissions supperior to the nfts style btw? or is that not comparable because the concept is so different? [19:38] paragonc: I don't remember. I haven't used it for quite some time [19:38] if i want to convert ma4 to mp3 do i have to rename every song ? [19:38] jrib; which package?? [19:38] having an issue, Well I have a dual system linux on one hdd and windows on another drive, I had to reinstall windows(go figure) and windows wiped grub and I was wondering what you all would suggest? I tried trowing in a livecd but when I reinstall grub no changes are really made? [19:38] HawkLion: It looks like a colon : but it's lines instead of dots. [19:39] HawkLion: It is the pipe command. [19:39] usr13: Not always - in many keyboards it's a solid line. [19:39] lanoxx-: I don't know anything about ntfs permissions. But if I am using linux, I definitely want to stick to unix permissions ;) [19:39] ubottu: are you sure about that link? [19:39] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [19:39] ah...thanks. [19:39] PerryArmstrong: I don't know offhand [19:39] devin.... don't use windows..... [19:39] jrib, thats for sure ;) [19:39] HawkLion: grawity says that on some keyboards it is just a vertical line. [19:39] jrib; what does offhand mean?? [19:39] jrib: Well, permissions must be supported by the filesystem, so if NTFS doesn't support them... [19:39] PerryArmstrong: it means I would have to look it up [19:40] HawkLion: What ethernet card do you have? [19:40] jrib; okk thanks i'll try [19:40] easytag looks promising too [19:40] Slart: I need openssl-0.9.8j in order to connect to the clusters I need to work on. [19:40] PerryArmstrong: is there a reason you are using a custom xorg.conf? My macbook has an intel card and I didn't have to muck about with the xorg.conf [19:41] devin... why do you need windows ? [19:41] I can't find any .deb packages [19:41] PerryArmstrong: xserver-xorg-video-intel is my guess [19:41] jrib; i am in desperation to get my desktop work well...dont want to see it clumsy..... [19:41] HawkLion: ifconfig eth0 (What does that say?) [19:41] ibeekman: then you either get the source directly and compile or find a packaged version.. have you checked what jaunty uses? [19:41] PerryArmstrong: what do you mean by "clumsy"? [19:41] i cant find any tutorial to start learning how to use ubuntu :S [19:41] yup_ I run software that doesn't run well on wine yet and I game [19:42] no how do I do that? [19:42] SantiG: help.ubuntu.com [19:42] VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105/VT6106S [Rhine - III] [19:42] SantiG: hang on.. I've got a url for you [19:42] Devin.. just givin ya a hard time [19:42] Slart: the problem was that I had put the share as "read-only". of course, then I shouldnt have been able to save the file there in the first place, but I downloaded it from linux, so that was no problem. [19:42] Iceman_B|SSH: ah.. good [19:42] I think this is the driver for it http://www.viaarena.com/default.aspx?PageID=2&OSID=45&CatID=3160 [19:43] HawkLion: What ethernet card do you have? [19:43] Devin... so grub is gone ? and ubuntu boots ? [19:43] usr13: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6105/VT6106S [Rhine - III] [19:43] SantiG: take a look at this.. it's downloadable for free http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ [19:43] Why does ubuntu fall back to the 'don't show window contents when resizing' when upgrading to proprietary video drivers (and enabling compiz effects in the process)? [19:43] yup_ nope ubuntu doesn't boot at all boots into windows [19:43] slart how do I check what version jaunty has? [19:43] jrib; when you install XP and you dont install your drivers..and you find that your screen resolution is not matching and every icon looks large making the desktop look clumsy....here desktop doesn't mean just what you get when you finish logging in but it means your OS screen [19:43] ibeekman: packages.ubuntu.com would be one way [19:44] HawkLion: ifconfig eth0 (What does that say?) [19:44] PerryArmstrong: so you have a problem changing the resolution? [19:44] DeviN: ok you need to restore Grub [19:44] !grub | DeviN [19:44] DeviN: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [19:44] when I try to run something in System Tools, I keep getting 'Error' 'Could not launch menu' 'Failed to execute child process...No such directory' [19:44] what do I do? [19:44] usr13: bash: ifconig: command not found [19:45] HawkLion: /sbin/ifconfig [19:45] HawkLion: ifconfig [19:45] jrib; that package is installed already..xserver-xorg...intel....... but when i checked...packages only upto i810 is available i910 is not available as i put in the code [19:45] HawkLion: Yes /sbin/ifconfig [19:45] HawkLion: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 [19:46] Hello, has somone time to answer a quick question? [19:46] In samba, I have added 7-8 options to a share I defined, but testparm only retuns 4 of those. Does that mean Samba disregards the others ? and can I remove them from my smb.conf ? [19:46] devin... i had that prob once, when i used windows. it seemed to be the way my hard drives were set up, if i configured them from slave to master or vice versa it did the trick but i don't know if that's that problem with u [19:46] PerryArmstrong: the -intel driver should support all intel cards [19:46] PerryArmstrong: why don't you start over with the default xorg.conf [19:46] pqb: yep just ask [19:46] Slart: no openssl-0.9.8j in any ubuntu packages [19:46] !ask > pqb [19:46] pqb, please see my private message [19:46] HawkLion: What does that say? /sbin/ifconfig eth0 ? [19:46] Hm, has anyone ever experienced a problem like this before? I install the proprietary FLGRX video driver then reboot. Then when I reboot and use hardware testing it fails the test. "Resolution impossible for flgrx" and etc. [19:46] Slart: for any distros [19:46] im using filezilla to download some files from one computer to another on my LAN. the transfer is reported to be going on at about 10MB/sek in filezilla. if i use iostat to check how much is written to the harddrive each second i get 2.44MB/sek. How is that possible? [19:46] but if I disable and restart the test goes through without a hitch. [19:46] disable the driver+ [19:47] usr13: I will pastebin it...hold on a bit... [19:47] Slart: maybe I should go to the debian website and check there? [19:47] ibeekman: then you would have to download the source and compile it yourself.. you'll have to take care of updates, keep up to date on security issues and such yourself after that, ubuntu cannot update stuff you've compiled yourself [19:47] jrib; thats what i said in the beginning of the thread...my ubuntu screen doesn't fit in the monitor screen...the ubuntu screen appears much smaller.... [19:47] HawkLion: The important thing is that the card is working. [19:47] nasso, probably the hard drive cache swallows the data as long as it can [19:47] what do I do when I try to run something in System Tools and it says 'Error' 'Could not launch menu' 'Failed to execute child process...No such directory'? [19:47] PerryArmstrong: that's fine. We willl try to fix the resolution instead of trying to load a non-existant driver [19:47] MrElendig; if you check this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7011467 [19:47] ibeekman: debian packages shouldn't really be installed on an ubuntu system.. there might be differences and if stuff stops working it might be hard to find out why [19:48] usr13: The card worked before I did the complete Ubuntu install. [19:48] sebsebseb: Thanks, I'm using Ubuntu for the first day, and it's goign well. just I'd like to know how to instal new programs from terminal. [19:48] HawkLion: Do you have it connected to a router that is turned on? If so, just do /sbin/dhclient eth0 [19:48] pqb, see 'man apt-get' [19:48] Slart: so no hope of finding a package somewhere? The security stuff should be OK, I need it to connec t to some very powerful machines so if a vulnerability is found they will make me upgrade (probably by hand again before anyone packages it :( [19:49] pqb: sudo apt-get install programname [19:49] pqb, you have more options; if you know the package name, sudo apt-get install package-name; if not, sudo aptitude or sudo dselect [19:49] anyway, i need help installing the rt2500 driver. [19:49] If i install Ubuntu over XP, will i lose the files i have on that partition? also, will I lose files on my D, E, and F, partitions? [19:49] HawkLion: If you have a good cable connected to a working router you should be able to get a connection, (that is if the DHCP server is turned on). [19:49] SVB: yes [19:49] sebsebseb: this is for progs I have already downloaded? [19:49] i lose it all? [19:49] Slart: the DoD has an rpm of the package I need but I don't think that will help me on Ubuntu... [19:49] jrib; i think you where trying to a few hours back....the problem is that i need it to be fixed in a few hours because i need to start preparing for my exam....and i can't keep fixing this system all time.....i hope you can understand my plight [19:49] SVB: yes if you go over XP, it goes bye bye [19:49] pqb, try synaptic from the applications menu first. [19:49] HawkLion: sudo /sbin/dhclient eth0 [19:49] how do i make it not go bye bye?? [19:50] usr13: I was working on this earlier this morning with some folks...and in checking things, we did something to change eth0 to etha...don't know how to change it back [19:50] jrib; i can't think of more than an hour to fix it... [19:50] SVB: by dual booting? [19:50] ibeekman: the internet is a big place.. but if you're being security concious you really shouldn't trust some 3rd party to build your software [19:50] jrib; but i am desperate to get it fixed [19:50] HawkLion: What did you do? [19:50] ibeekman: rpms can be more problems than they're worth.. [19:50] PerryArmstrong: I really have no control over that. I would fix it in a second if I could... [19:50] oh, i see [19:50] life sucks [19:50] durt: I read about synaptic, but it isn't there...\ [19:50] HawkLion: Paste what /sbin/ifconfig /sbin/eth0 says [19:50] jrib; anyways i kept a backup of this code...so where do we start from?? [19:50] SVB: in fact if your compuer has enough RAM, and depending on if you need XP, and what exactly you need it for. you could just back up your data, and run XP inside Ubuntu, fine for everything pretty much except 3D games [19:50] !pastebin | HawkLion [19:50] HawkLion: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [19:51] PerryArmstrong: if I were you, I would restore the default xorg.conf and then follow ubottu's advice.

[19:51] I gotta run thanks for your help [19:51] SVB: I see ok [19:51] HawkLion: Did you try: sudo /sbin/dhclient eth0 ? [19:51] ibeekman: good luck [19:51] I'm trying to install Ubuntu. Every time the install finishes, it fails boot and says: mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on /root failed: No such device [19:51] cheers [19:51] i also ran Combofix and malwarebytes [19:51] to clean it up [19:51] attis84, what do you mean? istat doesnt report what is written to cache? [19:51] SVB: Avira resuce CD, heh that's kind of interesting [19:51] and that worked like a charm [19:52] It's supposed to get the root system from /dev/sdc1, not /dev/sda1 [19:52] but i figured for good measure id run Avir [19:52] How can I switch it? [19:52] SVB: ok you don't need to worry about maliciosu programs if you run Ubuntu [19:52] jrib; i saw the ubottu message..now how do i get the default code?? [19:52] SVB: as long as you got a hardware firewall and a good user account password [19:52] tar -xzf what do i put in for the driver name ? this is the drive i downloaded rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz [19:52] PerryArmstrong: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [19:52] it drops me to BusyBox, so if I can get help with that that would be most appreciated. [19:52] hardware firewall as in router? [19:52] Durt: ah yes, I was looking in programs... many thanks. [19:52] usr13:http://paste.ubuntu.com/144368/ [19:52] sebsebseb: thanks too. [19:53] SVB: yeah hardware firewall in the router will do it. make sure you got one of those, and a good password for UBuntu, keep the crackers/blackhats out (using the correct terms here, media have it wrong with hackers) and you will be fine. otherwise someone bad could come in and put a rootkit on or something really nasty [19:53] pqb, in a general sense it's a bad idea to install stuff manually, only as a last resort and only if you know what you are doing. [19:53] #testy [19:53] HawkLion: But what does /sbin/ifconfig eth0 say? [19:53] Hmm, so anyone here have any experience with multiple OS's installed on a system? [19:53] pqb: and you can access the Windows XP partition, using the Ubuntu Live CD [19:53] ok [19:53] brb [19:54] !lastlog nkei0 [19:54] Sorry, I don't know anything about lastlog nkei0 [19:54] i downloaded this driver rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz how do i install it anybody ? [19:54] SVB: above that was for you [19:54] slart What's lastlog? [19:54] durt: yes, I wd rather use the installer for the moment. cheers [19:54] jrib; i did it and i only got the code which i had modified [19:54] oh [19:54] i will need to figure that out soon [19:54] Anyone know of good packet sniffing software for ubuntu? ( for my home network) [19:54] nasso, sorry, I don't know... it's just the only thing I could think of. BTW 2MB/s is not much of a hard drive [19:54] jdu: Wireshark is pretty sweet. [19:54] i wish i could just have a friend come over and fix my computer for me [19:54] jdu... for wifi ? [19:54] nkei0: nevermind that.. it's just a command to show what you've said so far in the channel.. did you have a "real" question about multi-os machines? [19:54] jdu: wireshark [19:55] jdu: google shields up [19:55] jdu: wireshark [19:55] sebsebseb: thanks... I have ditched Windows, though, so that won't be necessary :-) [19:55] SVB: ok pm me [19:55] yup_, yes [19:55] jdu... aircrack-ng is cool [19:55] attis84, i know it seems wierd. downloading in 10MB/sek and only writing to the disk at 2MB/sek. seems impossible :P [19:56] wireshark and aircrack-ng it is then, thanks!! everyone [19:56] Anyone? [19:56] does ubuntu need any antivirus programs [19:56] PerryArmstrong: right. You got an xorg.conf without your modifications, correct? [19:56] jedi06, no [19:56] Slart: Yeah, I've been running Ubuntu 8.10 and my wife needed to use a new printer she got but it doesn't work. I partitioned 15GB for an XP install. I installed it and it turns out I have to unload some drivers to it to get the internet and all of that to work. I went to restart to boot into Ubuntu so I could D/L them to a thumbdrive but it doesn't give me the option to choose. It just... [19:56] ...goes right back to XP. I'm currently running off of the live cd. [19:56] yup_, jdu: specifically, airodump to log packets, aireplay to inject & do known wifi attacks, and aircrack to recover passwords from logged traffic by airodump [19:56] pqb: yeah I messaged wrong guy I think [19:56] jrib; no with the modifications [19:56] also if i were running windows in a vm would that vm need antivirus? [19:56] usr13:http://paste.ubuntu.com/144372/ [19:57] PerryArmstrong: what was the output? [19:57] nasso, try running sync in a tight loop, like while true; do sync; done ... then the caching will make no difference [19:57] clearscreen.... can you help with installing a driver ? [19:57] clearscreen, awesome [19:57] does that mean ubuntu is immune to viruses? [19:57] jrib; i just got the xorg.conf file [19:57] i sneazed on ubuntu once and gave it some antibiotics [19:57] yup_: what driver? [19:57] rt2500 [19:57] where can I find mkvsplit ? [19:57] jedi06, it is much more secure, not immune. [19:57] HawkLion: lsmod |grep rhine [19:57] nkei0: installing windows probably wiped grub.. windows does that (no respect for other software=).. type !grub here in the channel to get some links with howtos.. it's a pretty common problem [19:58] jedi06: It's not immune, it's just that no one currently writes them for it. Also, being as that no one normally logs in as root, most viruses can't do anything. [19:58] yup_: isn't that a wireless PCI card? I think it works out of the box, at least it does for me [19:58] clearscreen... this is what i downloaded rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz [19:58] Slart: Thanks. [19:58] !grub [19:58] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [19:58] oksc, antibiotics don't kill viruses ;) [19:58] HawkLion: lsmod |grep rhine Tell me what it says. [19:58] Bye, thanks for help. [19:58] jedi06, I run AV in my virtual Windows XP box [19:58] jedi06, linux is well enough designed that it is unlikely that a virus could spread very well.

[19:59] oksc, for linux, you have rootkits rather instead of viruses [19:59] HawkLion: Ok, good. Show us what /sbin/ifconfig eth* says. [19:59] PerryArmstrong: yes, the commands you ran and the output [19:59] attis84 i didnt know this [19:59] usr13: ok [20:00] HawkLion: Or just: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 [20:00] yup_: why? :P [20:00] how can I link https://mysite.com to https://www.mysite.com so it can use the same certificate? (apache) [20:00] SliderMan, Do you hear the login sound? [20:00] attis84, running sync didnt help. its at 3.02 MB/sek [20:00] Daremonai, serveralias should work [20:00] jordan_u thanks for replay, no i dont hear any sound. [20:00] attis84: are these rootkits common? [20:00] Shirow, it's not for 443 [20:00] what do these rootkits do? [20:01] attis84, is it possible to write something to disk, unlimited ammount of times. like cat /dev/random > testfile (that didnt work) [20:01] clearscreen... cause that driver won't let me do what the rt2500 will let me do [20:01] joran_u its not muted as well. [20:01] SliderMan, Do you have more than one sound card on your computer? ( if you don't know you can check with asoundconf list ) [20:01] SliderMan: What kind of Sound card do you have? With the one I have installed I had to disable digital sound. [20:01] usr13: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 returns eth0: error fetching interface information: Device not found [20:01] For sound to work.+ [20:01] nasso, it should have, why not? [20:01] nasso: like appending the same file ? [20:01] HawkLion: Tru: /sbin/ifconfig eth1 [20:01] HawkLion: Try: /sbin/ifconfig eth1 [20:01] nasso, If you want all random then use /dev/urandom not /dev/random [20:01] Jordan_U, yes i have more then one ( i know one of them is broken ) but i already changed the mixer to work with the one that SHOULD work. [20:01] jrib; i just cross checked..it was the original one [20:02] Hello there, I have a problem of my ATI Xpress 1100 graphic card. I have installed ATI graphic driver for my graphic card but there is problem when I play 3d game, 3d chess & also google map [20:02] Hariharakadan ess 1938 or something. [20:02] yup_: unpack it first.. tar -xzf driver.tar.gz [20:02] usr13: same error [20:02] nasso: if you want to write something over and over again - you have to do it in a loop, catting /dev/random gives you one random number ... [20:02] oksc, I don't think you will have a problem if you don't go around giving random people and programs root access. [20:02] Jordan_U, what's the difference? [20:02] clearscreen... ive downloaded rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz driver just don't know the steps involved in installing it [20:02] oh. ok [20:02] HawkLion: sudo /etc/init.d/networking start [20:02] jrib; http://paste.ubuntu.com/144379/ [20:02] Hello there, I have a problem of my ATI Xpress 1100 graphic card.

[OK] [20:03] attis84, /dev/random just gives one small chunk of randomness, /dev/urandom gives an unending stream [20:03] PerryArmstrong: right. that file has none of your modifications, right? For example, there is no mention of "intel" or whatever [20:03] Jordan_U, there is a speaker icon on top of my screen, i duble clicked it and it opened the mixer and there i choosed the one that should work. [20:03] jrib; yes [20:03] Anyone know of a home design (or something that can be used as a home design) app that can run on an ubuntu web server?

I have installed ATI graphic driver for my graphic card but there is problem when I play 3d game, 3d chess & also google map, anyone please help me.. [20:04] attis84: how would these systems be already cracked? [20:04] SliderMan, That just changes which card's volume is controlled [20:04] jordan_U how should i change it then? i didnt see anything else. [20:04] yup: go into the extracted folder, cd rt2500-cvs-daily [20:04] attis84, this is so wierd. i copied i big file from my desktop to another place on the same harddrive. iostat still didnt report more then 3MB/sek written [20:04] gylan1979, did you get a message at some time saying that restricted drivers were available? [20:05] HawkLion: Did it acquire IP information and start working? [20:05] SliderMan, There may be a graphical way, but via the terminal you do "asoundconf list" and find the names of the cards then "asoundconf set-default-card name" [20:05] usr13: it hasn't done anything else [20:05] jrib; so whats next?? [20:05] PerryArmstrong: k, now see what your X is lik [20:05] like [20:05] nasso, What file system? [20:05] Jordan_U how do i open a terminal? [20:05] oksc, the idea is to exploit security problems in services running on the system; usual way is feeding it malformed input crafted in a way so that arbitrary code can be injected; then, you get access to the system with the privileges of the cracked service [20:06] HawkLion: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 (What does it say now? Same error?) [20:06] jrib; how do i see x is like?>> you mean restart it?? [20:06] Jordan_U, it should be ext3 [20:06] PerryArmstrong: yeah [20:06] SliderMan, Applications > Accessories > Terminal [20:06] i have success running google sketchup under wine on intrepid 64bit [20:06] nasso, when you copy files on the same filesystem, they don't actually move [20:06] jdu: thanks for help, yes i do. and I downloaded and installed the vendor driver and it seems ok... [20:06] nasso, I begin to distrust this iostat :) [20:06] HawkLion: If so, do: /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up [20:06] usr13: same error [20:06] jrib; Ctrl+Alt+Backspacekey ?? [20:06] clearscreen... what do you mean ? [20:06] PerryArmstrong: if you want [20:06] attis84 so you have to be running services and have a bad firewall? [20:06] gylan1979, good [20:06] yup_: exactly what i said: 'cd rt2500-cvs-daily' [20:06] I just installed Ubuntu Jaunty on my laptop and can not get my webcam to work. Cheese crashes, Camorama crashes, skype crashes.

[20:07] clearscreen... i did that and it says cd: rt2500-cvs-daily: No such file or directory [20:07] jdu, okay. but it didnt copy faster then 3mb/sek. i cant understand why. i checked with du -sh too. its really slow [20:07] jdu: but whenever I tried up the 3d my screen is blinking....what is the problem then? [20:07] nasso, For 9.04 help ask in #ubuntu+1 ( you are correct that ext3 is the default though ) [20:07] HawkLion: Ok, we probably need to take a look at /etc/network/interfaces [20:08] usr13: ok [20:08] HawkLion: Just look at the file: less /etc/network/interfaces [20:08] Jordan_U it still wont play any sound =( [20:08] Heres dmesg after i plug in my webcam http://pastebin.com/m5bca81a8 [20:08] gylan1979, unfortunately, you are going to have to ask some else about that. [20:08] yup_: do an ls -l and check what new directory you got.. I dont know the actual name [20:08] SliderMan, Try logging out and logging back in, I am not sure if it is immediate or not [20:08] nasso, so the copy was slow on the same filesystem? [20:08] usr13: auto lo [20:08] oksc, in my understanding, yes; a machine with all ports closed or filtered is not vulnerable unless it downloads something nasty; but attacks like cracking the router/gateway/ISP to trick the system into, say, downloading updates from a malicious repository are possible [20:09] HawkLion: You should see auto eth0 & auto eth1 etc. [20:09] usr13: iface lo inet loopback [20:09] Jordan_U OK, thanks.

[20:09] jdu, yes [20:09] oksc, do a sudo hdparm -t [20:09] Ill be back! =) [20:09] nasso, actually I should correct myself: when moving files from one directory to another, they do not physically move on the hard drive.

[20:10] what's the most secure distron of linux? is it ubuntu or debian or neither? [20:10] gylan1979, this is with compiz fusion, right? [20:11] jdu: yes...

[20:11] jrib; i lost it while restarting the system..can i have it again if you don't mind?? [20:11] nasso, can you do iostat while hdparm -t is running? [20:11] jdu: but before I installed compiz fusion, it is also the same.. [20:12] gylan1979, so its not just 3d accelerated graphics?

If it doesn't play the test sound the second time then I am out of ideas [20:27] when I try to run something in System Tools, I keep getting 'Error...Could not launch menu...Failed to execute child process...No such directory' [20:27] jdu: yes....http://paste.ubuntu.com/144397/ [20:27] clearscreen.. how do i make a pastebin ?

All that happens when I set a higher resolution is that the width and height of the screen is increased. I have to scroll to see all of the desktop....What do I do wrong? [20:28] jtaji, wow. thats an awsome applications :) it tells me 0B/s both read and write. iostat tells me 0.74 MB read/s and 3.68 write/s. cant understand this [20:28] jrib; i didnt understand that Modeline in adding resolutions [20:28] PerryArmstrong: then try using xrandr first. [20:28] hi, I have an installation issue - the alternative installer is asking for media change [20:28] jdu: yes....http://paste.ubuntu.com/144397/ [20:28] gylan1979, sadly, recent versions of ubuntu put so little in xorg.conf [20:28] gylan1979, yes [20:28] it froze Oo [20:28] Slart: Heya man, I looked at that grub howto and got grub back on my master boot record so now I can boot Ubuntu. However, it doesn't give me the option to boot to the windows partition now and I'm not sure which option would work for me after that... [20:28] jrib;i tried this roshan@roshan:~$ xrandr --addmode S-video 1024x768 [20:28] xrandr: cannot find output "S-video" [20:28] can someone help me with my system tools problem? I can't get programs to run [20:29] PerryArmstrong: you aren't reading the page [20:29] jdu: so, u mean it must be the problem of my x.config, isn't it? [20:29] nasso: iotop is instantaneous, iostat is since you booted or last ran iostat [20:29] Jordan_U the irq 16 one works how to setup ubuntu to use this one? [20:29] nasso: check the man page for iostat [20:30] it asks for the cd which is actually in the drive and no reaction [20:30] gylan1979, as you can see, the module glx is loaded. What happens if you change glx to aiglx and restart X. Just an idea? [20:30] jtaji, that explains alot. lol. thanks :) [20:30] gylan1979, that may break X as that is really just an experiment [20:30] nasso: no prob.. and actually you can get iostat to run continuously [20:30] nkei0: you have to add a couple of lines to the grub configuration file for that [20:30] SliderMan, To be clear, did the test sound with "automatically detected" fail and the one with ALSA succeed? [20:31] clearscreen... hey thnx for trying to help me. i will figure this garbage out somehow [20:31] gylan1979, the other option is to change the driver line "flgrx" to something else [20:31] nkei0: try running this in a terminal "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" you should get an editor window with the grub configuration file [20:31] yup_: just make a pastebin :P [20:31] Jordan_U both failed but i tried more, and the 7th one worked [20:31] Jordan_U somewhy it gives an error, and then freeze. [20:31] jdu: ic, then...i try to change it now? do i need to restart my linux? [20:31] clearscreen.. i don't know how to. === christian_ is now known as Chris__ [20:32] gylan1979, I mean: from what you told me, it would seem that it might be possible to solve with xorg.conf === Chris__ is now known as Chris_123 [20:32] jdu: flgrx? change to what? [20:32] how do i set up duel head accross 2 seperate gfx cards [20:32] gylan1979, you could do that. but you wouldn't have to restart [20:32] Slart: Oh alright, what lines do I add? [20:32] Jordan_U youtube.com still dosent play anything. [20:32] jdu: ic.. [20:32] gylan1979, some other driver.

Any way I can get this to work without a new kernel? [20:33] jdu: actually, to restart X: ctrl+alt+backspace... ctrl+alt+f4 will only put you in a different runlevel [20:33] gylan1979, then you can manually restart it. [20:33] yup_, the idea is you copy the relevant data/error message etc. Paste it at pastebin.com or paste.ubuntu.com etc. then copy the URL and paste that here for us to see. [20:34] clearscreen, good point, I was going to suggest editing xorg.conf, then restarting x from command line.

[20:35] yup_, me too, head cold n'all. *cough* [20:36] mrwes, I was under the impression that starting with 9.04, it will know longer be accessible. [20:36] jdu: this is #ubuntu though, people should be in #ubuntu+1 for jaunty support [20:36] Slart: I saw one example, but I'm not sure about it yet, going to look at some google results. [20:36] clearscreen, I meant: it is best not to teach something that will stop working [20:36] hi all [20:36] jdu: it seems like working good now....i am testing with the 3d chess game...it do not blinking anyway.. :) thx so much [20:36] jdu: hrmm.. I thought it was just during alpha and beta stages..shrug [20:36] nkei0: ok, let us know if you need any help [20:36] purvesh, there is a wonderful word in english : "to". you cant create files onn your own in /var/www since you're not root. use "sudo cp" command, or give your user some write rights over /var/www [20:36] jdu: well, if it fixes their problem :P [20:36] =\ [20:37] mrwes, maybe you are right, i'm not sure? [20:37] gylan1979, I'm glad! what exactly were the steps you took? === whuffor_ is now known as whuffor [20:38] jdu: the simple step that u ask me to change glx to aiglx only [20:38] gartral, you didnt answer but i have to leave now. if you use two nvidia cards it is possible to setup a dualhead display with the application nvidia-settings. make sure you install the nvidia drivers from system -> administration -> hardware drivers. then just run "sudo nvidia-settings" from a terminal or click nvidia settings in system -> administation -> nvidia [20:38] jrib; http://paste.ubuntu.com/144406/ [20:38] gylan1979, good! then I will suggest that only, next time someone asks. [20:40] should I assume that there is no gui available in ubuntu to change the locale settings? [20:40] jdu: thank you anyway for help... :) i am still doing testing with other 3d accelerated programs n c 1st.. [20:40] PerryArmstrong: read from the top [20:40] nasso: one nvidia, one internal no name [20:40] SliderMan, I need to go, I will probably be here 1:00 UTC tomorrow, and there are other smart people in this channel that can probably help you before then :) [20:40] jesusra: I don't know of one.. I might be wrong though [20:40] \server localhost [20:40] PerryArmstrong: you need to choose teh output [20:40] Jordan_U have a great day! thanks for helping ;) [20:40] hello all...anyone experience with the ALSA update script (to 1.0.19) [20:41] jrib; there's no newmode?? [20:41] SliderMan, np, and good day to you to :) [20:41] PerryArmstrong: I don't know. Does the help say there is? [20:41] i have two monitors, ide like to setup duelhead, my computer has one internal card, and one old nvidia card [20:42] Slart: Okay, one quick question... How do I tell which drive/partition my Windows install is on? I've only got one HD (laptop) and I've got two partitions. sda1 is linux and sda2 is windows, but how do i translate that into (hd#,#)? [20:42] gylan1979, aiglx stands for accelerated indirect glx, so it makes since that it would make a difference. [20:42] Slart, thanks for your feedback [20:42] jrib; the man pages say it exists [20:42] gartral, okay. i dont think you can use nvidia-settings then. install the driver anyway if you havnt had look around in nvidia-settings. if you cant configure it there you probably have to edit your xorg.conf. do a search for xinerama on google. i have to leave now. sorry that i cant help you more. [20:42] nkei0, from linux's perspective? [20:42] nkei0: sda1 = hd(0,0) [20:42] jrib; can we have an ssl connection?? [20:42] nkei0: grub starts counting at zero.. first drive, first partition is hd0,0 the first number is driver number, second is partition [20:42] (hd0,0) ** [20:43] nkei0: so sda2 would be hd0,1 [20:43] Slart: yes... [20:43] and sdb4 would be (hd1,3) [20:43] jdu: ic, I just finish tested my google earth....i doesn't work....it blinking and quit itself...it that cause by the google program itself? [20:43] nasso: already looked through nvidia-settings, i might se if xinerama has anything, thanks [20:43] Slart: Thanks, I'll give this one a go and I'll be back soon hopefully! [20:43] ok, im starting to think kubuntu sucks compared to ubuntu [20:43] nkei0: If there is any question, the breakout is shown in /boot/grub/device.map [20:43] nkei0: good luck =) [20:43] gylan1979, for google earth, I would suggest not using compiz with it. [20:43] How do I find my default runlevel when there is no /etc/inittab? [20:44] glick: It is not as polished [20:44] Slart: sorry....thought you asked about the hd0,1...it was nkei0...:) [20:44] toomai: =) [20:44] like in kubuntu i cant just right click on files and folder and select add to archive [20:44] jdu: ic, so how to turn compiz off n on? [20:44] what the hell? [20:44] where can i get a mirror file for my package manager ?

[20:59] drmelon: I use totem [20:59] PerryArmstrong: did you use xrandr --newmode MODELINE? [21:00] its a shame there are some really nice high quality kde apps out there [21:00] gylan1979, because google earth can't use its own lib, it will use /usr/lib/libcrypto.so [21:00] jdu: ic..i'm on the way solving it :) [21:00] i bed kde is more polished on distros where kde is the default desktop [21:00] like suse [21:00] mwh: Totem should work. [21:00] g2g all, i hope mwh can fix his prob [21:00] ./join #Ubuntu-es [21:00] bed = bet [21:00] SiDi: copied thanx for help now i'm configuring php or apache so if any help i want then u can help me i'm new user. [21:01] xcv: well, your system sees it, do you have cheese or camorama [21:01] oh well, looks like ill be installing ubuntu later [21:01] I guess what I really want to know is how to install drivers, since I've never done it before. [21:01] * glick sighs [21:01] jrib; http://paste.ubuntu.com/144427/ [21:01] purvesh, i'm not *really* available but feel free to highlight me and i'll see if i can help [21:01] igge, you might look at boot options to pass to linux [21:01] glick: Maybe, I didn't experience more polish with kde on suse though [21:02] really Stupendoussteve? [21:02] igge, basically all you want is to run in single user mode [21:02] thats a shame === joop is now known as joo_p23 [21:02] PerryArmstrong: I assume you need to use the entire line for the modeline. Look at the help output [21:02] maybe its because kde is MUCH more complex than gnome [21:02] igge, if you have root, you can do that by running telinit, but as you don't, you can enter single user mode on start up [21:02] so its harder to polish [21:02] cause there are so many components [21:02] hmm .. I can import the mp3 to Audacity and it plays okay there .. let me see if I can convert it back to mp3 and see if I can play it [21:02] jdu: do u have any idea how to search it's directory...i can't remember where I installed it.. [21:02] gartral no cheese. installed camorama but haven't launched it yet... http://paste.ubuntu.com/144428/ [21:02] gylan1979, it will be in your home directory [21:03] PerryArmstrong: i'll be back later [21:03] gylan1979, find -name libcrypto.so.0.9.8 ~ [21:03] jdu: but i don't think i can make it enter single user mode either.. there is no keyboard or screen on the device [21:03] jdu: :O is it.... ic ok...then [21:03] jrib; ok [21:04] jdu: i tried to just remove the password.. will see if it works.. [21:04] its a shame, cause kde looks very pretty in screeshots [21:04] igge, good idea. [21:04] glick, it still looks pretty on ubuntu, what version do you have? [21:05] xcv: i know aMSN will support the cam, so will kopete if your not against using kde code [21:05] Slart: Thanks man, everything is working now. [21:05] glick, of ubuntu and kde? [21:06] jdu: of kubuntu [21:06] glick, sure [21:06] gartral, not against kde, or even wine if a win client can access the hardware...

[21:08] korogiannos: proftp [21:08] glick, 4.2 is better (still not perfect) [21:08] jdu: exactly [21:08] Flare183: many thanks [21:08] xcv: do you have the V4L package(s) [21:08] korogiannos: best and easiest rarely equals the same thing [21:08] yeah proftp [21:08] korogiannos: Np [21:08] gartral no idea [21:08] or throw together your own ftp using python and twisted :) [21:08] get em [21:08] igge, does it boot? [21:08] ftp server that is [21:08] !v4l [21:08] Sorry, I don't know anything about v4l [21:08] it now looks like: root::0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh in /etc/passwd so it shouldn't even ask for a password [21:09] korogiannos: proftp has a good reputation when it comes to security..

[21:10] no default server menu... weak... [21:10] jdu: that's exactly what i have done [21:11] jdu: i fail to find it...i seems like do not appear in my home dir... [21:11] jdu: so now i can edit the /etc/passwd file to change the password [21:11] jdu: problem is i don't know what to put there [21:11] jdu: i mean the lib file.. [21:11] igge: If you chroot to your ubuntu install you can change the password using passwd [21:12] igge, can you get to the file where the kernel is started by the boot loader? [21:12] igge: /etc/passwd does not contain any passwords [21:12] xcv: np, easycam might be useful in your case particular [21:12] igge, it may be that my ignorance of /etc/passwd shows then [21:13] igge, still if you add Single to the kernel parameters, you'll be root [21:13] Stupendoussteve: hmmm.. interesting.. how would i do that if the usb stick is in /media/disk/ [21:13] I'm looking for a simple GUI tool that can record webcam and audio to avi (etc), I've tried cheese and camstream, neither works. [21:14] alaz: yes it does.. it contains encryped passwords unless /etc/shadow is used.. isn't that right? [21:14] gylan1979, sorry. where have you looked? [21:14] igge: chroot /media/disk, or whever your install is. You will want to be root first (sudo su) [21:14] igge: try cat /etc/passwd [21:14] jdu: i fail to find it...i seems like do not appear in my home dir... [21:14] ubuntu 8.10 started hanging a few days ago, only thing changed are updates. when i try to restart i get a screen with showing http://paste.ubuntu.com/144435/ [21:14] jdu: i mean the lib file.. [21:14] jdu: but how can i change the kernel parameters? there is no keyboard when i boot [21:14] Thanks, disabling the sound card through the bios helped.

[21:16] Help please. I plugged in an external 250Gb HD into an Ubuntu Machine, safely removed it but now it wont show up in windows? It worked just fine before I plugged into Ubuntu? Any reason why? [21:16] LjL: thanks. [21:16] i'm using 64bit flash and when I go full-screen my CPU temps skyrocket, does anyone else have that issue? [21:16] hey i think i have that conficker thing what do i do to get rid of it. [21:16] acerone, you are sure you safely removed it? [21:16] how do I find out what version of ubuntu I have installed [21:16] hajmola: Linux + flash causes cpu usage to skyrocket period [21:16] mike12: what operating system are you running? [21:16] acerone if you changed the partion it wont show in windows [21:16] jdu yes [21:16] linux [21:17] Stupendoussteve, that sucks. [21:17] dn4: lsb_release -a in a terminal [21:17] alaz: yeah i can do that... it says "root::0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh" [21:17] acerone windows dosent have a support for ext partions type [21:17] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/349794 -> how can I find the bug referenced here? I can't seem to find it [21:17] acerone, its ntfs? [21:17] SliderMan: I didnt change the partition, It is an NTFS partition, I wrote one file, and then safely removed it and now it doesnt show up in windows [21:17] Slart linux [21:17] alaz: i thought that would disable the password for the root user.. but apperantly there has to be a password or something... [21:17] slacker_nl, I installed 8.04 but upgraded to 10 something why does it not show it [21:17] acerone linux dosent even have a support for ntfs [21:17] mike12: didn't know if infected linux machines.. what makes you think your computer is infected? [21:17] how to make sed replace anything that appears in <> (including the <>) with space???? [21:18] SliderMan: yes it does [21:18] SliderMan: yes it does, you can read and write to NTFS [21:18] hajmola: thats normal. your cpu can handle high temps and still last 100 years [21:18] xcv: heads up, i looked for your device in the USB Drivers registry, and it didnt show up directly, but there are other handycams there, so may hit some small bug somewhere... [21:18] acerone: indeed that guy was wrong [21:18] mike12: conficker is a windows worm [21:18] gylan1979, try the command: mv ~/google-earth/libcrypto.so.0.9.8 ~/google-earth/libcrypto.so.0.9.8-bak [21:18] alaz: before it said "root:F1CMP5WlDPU/o:0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh"... can u crack that for me? :) [21:18] acerone you can try rewriting the partion but you might loss your data [21:18] SliderMan: ntfs-3g works well [21:18] how to make sed replace anything that appears in <> (including the <>) with space???? [21:18] alaz, thanks. It's just annoying because my fans get loud [21:18] sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /mnt <-- ntfs support [21:18] it might be somthin else but all my anti spyware, anti malware and firewalls are goin off and everytime it tries to fix the problem it shutsdown [21:18] SliderMan: I dont need to, everything is fine, it shows up in ubuntu, but nwo it doesnt show up in windows [21:18] thats neat :p [21:19] jdu: yes i did look into the .googleearth in my home dir....but didn't c the lib file.. [21:19] gartral, acknowledged. no support for it in vista either, not even sony released drivers :P [21:19] mike12: What are you using for anti-syware, anti-virus and firewalls? [21:19] xcv: is this an older one? [21:19] acerone i bet its soemthing about the partion type [21:19] mike12: anti adware? for linux? what software are you running? [21:19] gylan1979, paste the output of : ls ~/google-earth [21:19] igge: aye. your passwords is indeed in shadow [21:19] gylan1979, ":" is not part of it.

[21:20] igge: they are hashed and unretrivable. [21:20] Slart AVG [21:20] Slart Kaspersky [21:20] alaz: there is no /etc/shadow file... and no "x" in the /etc/passwd [21:20] mike12: a enabled hardware firewall, and a good Ubuntu password, and you will be alright. You have to know what your doing to install bad programs into a Linux distro such as Ubuntu, or had someone crack into your computer [21:20] jrib; here http://paste.ubuntu.com/144440/ [21:21] PerryArmstrong: you keep on spamming the channel with links for jrib, I guess he is away [21:21] can someone remind me what the channel for ubuntu 9.04 is? [21:21] sebsebseb ok thanks [21:21] SliderMan: I plugged it into a windows xp machine and it showed up fine, so it must be my vista machine.

[21:24] thewrath: Your very welcome [21:24] igge, and it is installed on the card? [21:24] igge: `sudo passwd -l root` (thats a lowercase L) [21:24] igge, or rather a usb stick/ [21:24] ?

[21:26] jdu: no won't work.. i can't boot that usb stick in a "normal" pc because the nslu2 has a different processor [21:26] igge: As far as the original problem, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword will walk you through resetting your password [21:26] igge, duh [21:26] alaz: Please stop giving bad advice. [21:26] igge, arm? [21:27] igge, its clear to me now. [21:27] Flannel: why is that bad? [21:27] Flannel: you are missunderstanding me.. it's not on my desktop PC i have lost the password... it is on a nlsu2 like this one: http://www.ostertag.name/HowTo/NSLU2_USB-SD_GPS.jpg [21:27] would it be difficult to increase my swap size? [21:27] alaz: Because if your advise is not correct, then you could totally mess up their machine [21:27] alaz: Because that's the wrong way to do it, and can cause problems with other normal operations [21:27] ariqs, use gparted [21:27] !gparted | ariqs [21:27] ariqs: gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program.

[22:31] is it odd that my laptop fan doesnt turn on much with a new version of ubuntu installed? [22:31] igge: you can use vlc player with themes i think [22:31] excess21: probably nothing else than code thats been rewritten demanding less cpu power [22:31] excess21 is your system running better with ubuntu [22:31] ? [22:32] ubuntu_, yes. overall much better, it gave life to an old laptop. but it does seem to get hot.

[22:53] Help Please. After upgrading alsa my function keys no longer control my volume? What do I need to do to fix them? They worked fine before I upgraded alsa. [22:53] ubuntu__: that's because the windows installer overwrites the grub mbr.. basically replacing it with it's own bootup routine [22:53] ubuntu_, you need to reinstall Grub, because windows erased it. [22:53] !grub [22:53] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows?

[22:53] ubuntu_, check the link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub [22:53] even tho its in 2 seperate partions? [22:54] ubuntu__: mm, I don't think windows shows "weird" partitions.. and anything not fat or ntfs is by definition weird in windows afaik [22:54] jdu, if it was that simple, do you think I would be in here? :-p [22:54] keith, sorry [22:54] ubuntu_, the boot loader is located in the very beginning of the HDD, so unless you install windows on another HDD, it will erase grub which is in the beginning of your HDD [22:54] so is there about specific to that [22:54] ? [22:54] ubuntu__, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub [22:54] ubuntu__: but your partition is probably still there waiting.. it's just a couple of quick commands and you'll be back in ubuntu [22:55] jdu, Lexmark has drivers for it, but it doesn't seem to work after I install them. and Adding through the method you suggested causes an error. === Vaylor is now known as Lacriole [22:55] hi!

[22:55] I've done it before, but I can't remember how... [22:55] mlissner: edit the partitions label.. there are different tools for different file system types [22:55] mlissner: easiest is probably to edit the label using gparted [22:56] mlissner: NOTE!!.. there are two labels.. editing the wrong one will erase everything on the drive [22:56] what is there on http://localhost:631/printers [22:56] ubuntu__ a grub restore program :) there are several ways (with ubuntu livecd), and there even is a grub livecd [22:56] Help Please.

[22:57] mlissner: yes [22:57] Slart, Huh. That doesn't sound familiar for some reason. [22:57] grub === Eghie`afk is now known as Eghie [22:57] mlissner: if you give it the label "usbdrive" it will be mounted as /media/usbdrive [22:57] to get a bot? [22:57] ubuntu__: !grub.. [22:57] Slart, this is for ubuntu server, so I think I have to edit fstab as well? [22:58] mlissner: nope [22:58] mlissner: you could of course edit fstab too.. that's another way [22:58] Slart, odd...I /have/ edited fstab. [22:58] keith, yeah I am not sure how to help with that. You might use the http://localhost:631/ interface rather than the ubuntu pygtk one [22:58] Slart, (I'm trying to recreate my old steps) [22:59] Has anyone used nilfs with ubuntu? [22:59] Slart, I have this line in fstab: /dev/IOMEGA /media/IOMEGA ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 0 [22:59] mlissner: I think it first checks fstab... if it doesn't find anything in there it uses the label [22:59] Slart, I assume that means fstab knows to find the disk at /dev/IOMEGA? [22:59] !grub [22:59] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [22:59] mlissner: mm.. that depends on the drive getting detected as /dev/IOMEGA [22:59] ok thanks [22:59] mlissner: you might have done some fancy stuff with udev to make that work.. not sure [23:00] jdu, it shows 0 of 3 printers when I click to manage [23:00] Slart, hmm...I might have. Anyway to tell? [23:00] Help Please. After upgrading alsa my function keys no longer control my volume? What do I need to do to fix them? They worked fine before I upgraded alsa.

[23:01] Slart, it works, but I want to convert the disk to TrueCrypt, and I have a feeling I'm going to have to sort this out again when I do. [23:01] one more thing can i change these grub commands while i am using a ubuntu cd in my drive [23:01] mlissner: when I edit system files like that I always make sure to add a comment with my name, date and what I changed.. then you can search for that later on [23:01] its how i am not on xp right now [23:01] okey ubbun [23:01] you live cd distro [23:01] Slart, yeah, I generally do too, but this was a while ago, plus, I'm not sure even which files to look for my traces in. [23:01] well you ar welcome here [23:02] keith, what model number was it? [23:02] im know contact live op [23:02] mlissner: I don't really know how truecrypt does it's magic so I can't say if you'll have to edit it again, sorry [23:02] mlissner: grep is wonderful for doing searches like that [23:02] jdu, Lexmark Z2300 [23:02] can someone help me fix my wirelss i did "sudo ifconfig wlan0 down" and now woreless wont come back up again get a resource error [23:02] Slart, you over estimate my ability to comment consistently. [23:03] Slart...and in a consistent fashion. [23:03] Slart, udev rules would be in /etc/udev, right?/ [23:03] Is there anywhere I could ask low level questions about ext2? [23:03] mlissner: hehe..

After upgrading alsa my function keys no longer control my volume? What do I need to do to fix them? They worked fine before I upgraded alsa. [23:04] Yodas: Banshee is also a nice video and music player [23:04] jdu, don't think so... but the system has been restarted. Shouldn't that do the same thing?

[23:05] sebsebseb: Okay, but its just cause i want a program there can download video's from facebook , that the only reason i want that program cause i have heard that it can do that.

[23:05] ok so when i do as the help tells me i get this "rub> find /boot/grub/stage1 [23:05] (hd0,0) [23:05] " [23:06] Slart, well, there's a file called /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_usbmout.rules that was modified at a different time than all the others, it doesn't look like my handiwork, but it could be. [23:06] mlissner: that sounds like a likely candidate.. I can pastebin my version if you want something to compare with [23:06] Slart, maybe I should broaden my question, and ask if people know how to automount truecrypt so it's always mounted in the same place. [23:06] Slart, that'd be great. [23:06] yodas if you use firefox downloadhelper addon can download videos from several different sites like youtube [23:07] keith, so I am not sure, as far as I can tell, it should be working . Perhaps uninstall and then use the .tar.gz instead. [23:07] fusa_: Hi, yes i got that, but it cant download videos from facebook :( [23:07] yea yodas there are plenty of firefox addons to download streaming vids [23:07] keith, the website only mentions support for 8.04, but I wouldn't think it would matter [23:07] good ny people.. i m newb here....and wanna know howto upgrade by back port?

[23:08] okkkkkkkkkk [23:08] Does anybody know how to mount a truecrypt drive automatically on boot to the same location every time? [23:08] mlissner: hmm..

[23:13] Just to clarify, I have read that Ubuntu is supposed to have an option during the installation which, if enabled, only installs free software (as in fsf.org), but I have never spotted this, when, during the installation, is this option given you? [23:13] now i just need to figure out how to send files [23:14] meoblast001, do share [23:14] Aizawa, isnt that gobuntu? [23:15] deany: do you know any progrmas that file transfer with it? [23:15] Aizawa, are you using the alternate install cd? [23:15] Nah, since they gave up Gobuntu (the latest version of Gobuntu is a beta of 8.04) they've included an option to install only free software. (Read this on the Gobuntu wikipedia page) [23:15] I'm not, I'm using the live cd. [23:15] Am I supposed to use the alternate one? [23:15] yes [23:15] nope.. im at a loss with bluetooth... ubuntu lets me down again === Mud|afk is now known as Mud|ZzZzZ [23:16] Aizawa: wouldn't that be the same as only using the main repository? [23:16] "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." any ideas how I do that.. :) as I dont wanna restart the system [23:16] Aizawa: I'm not sure though [23:16] luckily I dont need it.. but its a stain that needs cleaning.. windows has no trouble.. [23:16] Downing: run "pkill -9 firefox" in a terminal [23:16] Aizawa, pretty sure at any rate. It has a number of options such as ltsp, command line, free software only [23:16] hi all [23:16] Slart: I guess, but by default it installs things that aren't free software.. [23:16] Aizawa: isn't that under "Boot options" ? (select language and press F6 twice if my memory isn't gone completely) [23:17] thanks [23:17] glitsj16: Ah, perhaps. I'll check it out! Thanks! [23:17] Aizawa: ah.. it does? are you sure? [23:17] slart: Positive [23:17] segin|kvirc, connection trouble? [23:17] Is there any benefit to compiling a custom kernel with standard options, or would it be more or less the lame as using the generic kernel? [23:17] Aizawa: hmm.. then I don't really know of a way.. perhaps there is a customized version somewhere [23:18] deany: yes [23:18] anyone got an easy way to run a shell script at startup? preferences > sessions doesn't want to work properly === segin|kvirc is now known as segin [23:18] keith: unless you're trying to squeeze extra battery time out of a laptop.. or running something very special I doubt you'll gain much by compiling your own [23:18] Slart: As said, and as someone replied, there IS an option to only install free software, I just had trouble finding it. Apparently it's a boot option, I'll check it out. [23:18] Bobbino, rc.local? [23:18] * Aizawa waves [23:18] Bobbino: it does it you do it right =) [23:18] Slart: Thanks [23:18] !session | Bobbino [23:18] Bobbino: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot [23:18] Bobbino: be more specific [23:19] is their a boot disk with a very new kernel? my laktop is not supported by the kernel current Ubuntu is using [23:19] i'd like to file transfer via bluetooth with my phone... what applications can help me with that? [23:19] it's a script that starts up my conky on my desktop. it runs the script and puts the info on the desktop, then about 5 seconds later it dissapears [23:19] <|MaNoWaR|> how can i install theme's ? [23:19] meoblast001: obexftp or something like that [23:19] meoblast001: and of course, the regular bluetooth packages [23:19] Slart: is that a GUI... i don't want some Nautilus binding [23:20] Bobbino: that's probably because nautilus draws over it [23:20] yeah [23:20] Bobbino: so tell nautilus not to do that [23:20] how? [23:20] meoblast001: I'm not really sure.. nautilus uses it.. but I don't know if obexftp is just a background service thing [23:20] How would I install Kubuntu (or Ubuntu, since this is #ubuntu) in a chroot? debootstrap and then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ? [23:20] Bobbino: in gconf-editor unclick show_desktop for nautilus preferences [23:20] Bobbino: sounds like the script is running as intended.. it's probably a conky configuration problem [23:21] ok i'm in [23:21] thanks [23:21] Slart: it runs find when I run the script manually... just not at startup [23:21] Bobbino: can you pastebin the script? [23:21] yes [23:21] and jrib - going to try that... [23:22] does anyone know if this is legitimate? http://digg.com/d1ntd2 [23:22] http://pastebin.com/m446f1c12 [23:22] Slart: won't let me copy files [23:22] How do I do a forced quit in terminal?

[23:23] how can I change the priority for update-alternatives [23:24] meoblast001: hmm.. not sure what else might be needed.. I thought that was it [23:24] I have nano with a + next to it, and my default is vim, so when I do certain things, it uses nano [23:24] Slart: i looked up the error.... i think it's a nautilus problem [23:24] AD233AD: get your VNC fixed? [23:24] anyone have a knowledge of bind 9 on ubuntu server [23:25] does anyone know if this is legitimate? http://digg.com/d1ntd2 [23:25] Mark_ILB: what's your question? ...not that i'll be able to help, but without a a specific question, it's unlikely that anyone else can either. [23:26] tony2009: It is, but I couldn't get the dumb thing to work [23:26] badpenguin86: hehe ok ;) [23:26] i tovella i have a ubuntu server setup and am in the process of setting up bind9 on it... when i try and do a nslookup for anything local in my network it can't be found... when i try manually restart bind it keeps failing [23:26] badpenguin86: I got 8.10 running off my 1GB USB stick anyway [23:26] :( bluetooth doesn't like Ubuntu i suppose [23:27] were can i get the PhysicsFS-dev package? [23:27] tony2009: Yeah. This is like a mini virtual machine version [23:27] hows that tovella [23:27] jrib: if i turn draw background off, I don't get a background image though? [23:27] Mark_ILB: i'm not all that familiar with bind9 installation/configuration, but does the log file give any indication as to why it failed? [23:27] badpenguin86: ok cheers big ears :) [23:27] Hello, i'm having a small problem [23:27] no clue where to find the log files [23:28] Manny2268: do you really want everyone to know about your "small problem"? :) [23:28] No, i'm being serious [23:28] were can i get the PhysicsFS-dev package? [23:28] !ask > Manny2268 [23:28] Manny2268, please see my private message [23:29] no idea where the log files are tovella... do you know where they are? [23:29] Mark_ILB: probaly in /var/log/syslog. ...try the command, "tail -n 25 /var/log/syslog" [23:29] <_mnemonic76> Does the ubuntu installation process build a kernel, or just install a default one that is pre-compiled for the architecture you choose? [23:29] hello [23:29] _mnemonic76: the second option [23:29] problem regarding my cd/dvd devide [23:29] device [23:30] anyhelp please [23:30] hai zslashz [23:30] hey [23:30] hello, how can i share a file with virtualbox. I installed addon and shared a file [23:30] but i couldn't see shared file :( [23:30] glen_: i think that's in the regular repo's, libphysfs-dev [23:30] cd is detected normally/ dvds are not detected [23:30] mind that i do have a dvd read write [23:31] Okay well, i got a new 320gb Western Digital MyBook external Hard Drive,and i'm going to install Ubuntu into a partition on it. Well, i booted up my 8.04 Live CD, and GParted won't let me create a partition on the external Hard Drive, Can Ubuntu not be installed onto an External Drive or what? [23:31] <_mnemonic76> Ok, so if I would like to 'downgrade' to an older kernel (as a boot-time option) is there a howto that anyone is aware of for me to follow? I am using grub, so I understand there will be some configuration there... other than that is it as simple as downloading an old kernel and putting it in the right place? [23:31] glitsj16, ahh its called physfs :P [23:31] How would I install Kubuntu (or Ubuntu, since this is #ubuntu) in a chroot? debootstrap and then apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ? [23:31] glitsj16, thanks [23:31] tonsofpcs [23:31] this is my data using the lshw -class disk [23:32] glen_: apparently yes, confusing sometimes these differences [23:32] cdrom [23:32] description: DVD writer [23:32] product: DVD-RW GWA-4082N [23:32] vendor: HL-DT-ST [23:32] physical id: 0.0.0 [23:32] zslashz: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[23:34] Hi, very new linux user here, looking for help setting up my system, the online documentation isn't helping enough. [23:34] theantited: What do you need to know? [23:34] So can any one answer my problem? [23:34] i don't wanna switch to Fedora [23:35] meoblast001: They all (can) use the same software [23:35] Bobbino: your script seems to work nicely on my testbox [23:35] Stupendoussteve: what can? [23:35] meoblast001: Linux distros [23:35] bobbino: but it seems you've left already. =/ [23:35] is there a specific driver i can install for the cd/dvd [23:35] ? [23:35] Stupendoussteve: ok..... i thought Fedora was just by default the best with hardware [23:35] meoblast001: It uses the same kernel, which is where the majority of the drivers come from [23:35] Stupendoussteve: i googled my problem and it appears only Ubuntu users are having the problem [23:36] _mnemonic76: oh.. if you don't find a suitable kernel in the repos and you download your own, take a look at the command "update-grub".. it might help you with the grub configuration.. it needs to be run as root [23:36] meoblast001: have you tried blueman yet ? [23:36] zslashz: What is the problem? [23:36] theantited: I can help you with newbie questions [23:36] glitsj16: one sec let me find out [23:36] my cd/dvd [23:37] only cds are detected and mounted [23:37] dvds are not [23:37] :S [23:37] glitsj16: E: Couldn't find package blueman [23:37] i do have a burner [23:37] meoblast001: hang on, i'll check where i got that from [23:37] hi all, can you have python 2.5 and 3 installed at the same time ? [23:37] and i verified usinf lshw -class disk [23:37] Does transmission allow for traffic encryption? [23:37] sharperguy: afaik transmissions is pretty basic... so I doubt it [23:38] <_mnemonic76> Slart: Thanks again... I have tried to compile my own custom kernel, and I always do something wrong... I have two problem pieces of hardware and I think they're both kernel related... one I think may be solved by the downgrade, and the other may need a custom kernel.. [23:38] tlm2024, I believe so, although I'm not 100% sure on how the version is determined when you type "python" [23:38] sharperguy: but you can read all about it at their site, http://www.transmissionbt.com/ [23:38] Hello. === pheco is now known as david- === david- is now known as david0 [23:39] Slart, thanks [23:39] _mnemonic76: ouch.. well.. I hope jaunty brings some relief for you [23:39] meoblast001: its in a ppa at http://philip.magicalforest.se/ === david0 is now known as feekoh [23:39] glitsj16: found the PPA [23:39] I just purchased the retail copy of Enemy Territory Quake Wars. I can't get my dvd drive to mount the disc. Any ideas? [23:40] anyone knows a good c++ ide that i can compile win apps and dlls? [23:40] Ingsoc: worked nicely for me... bad dvd perhaps? does it work on other computers? [23:40] i only have one comp, dvd looks fine. brand new [23:41] SliderMan: take a look at anjuta.. or eclipse [23:41] glitsj16: blueman won't come up... appears i have to download the deb manually [23:41] slart, are they in ubuntu? [23:41] glitsj16: hmm... strange... Synaptic bug.... works in APT [23:41] SliderMan: sure [23:41] hello [23:41] !code | SliderMan [23:41] SliderMan: Programming editors/suites: Terminal-based: vi/vim, emacs - KDE: Kate, KDevelop, Quanta+, Umbrello - GNOME: gvim, gedit, anjuta, pida, monodevelop, geany - Others: eclipse, netbeans [23:41] meoblast001: turning into a real adventure your bleutooth heh [23:41] thanks [23:41] Ingsoc, what about other DVDs ? Does your drive read DVD-roms ? ET:QW's dvd works just fine here [23:42] glitsj16: i already have to sell my bluetooth headset and buy a new one because mine wont work [23:42] glitsj16: but i'm not selling my cell phone :P [23:42] Ingsoc: hmm.. do you get any error messages when you insert it? (the error messages can be seen by writing "tail -f /var/log/syslog" in a terminal.. ctrl+c to exit the log viewing thing [23:42] got it tovella [23:43] SLart let me check the logs. just a sec [23:43] when i play video in totem, i get a purple bar on the left side of the video, and it seems like one of the colors isnt aligned correctly. Anyone know how to fix? [23:43] Ingsoc, btw the linux isntaller isnt on the dvd, you have to grab it from enemyterritory.com (but you'll need the DVD in your drive in order for the install to work) [23:43] cez, you might be missing codecs [23:43] !codecs [23:43] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [23:43] meoblast001: i never used bluetooth before personally, just helped out a friends setup once, that's when blueman turned up in the conversations .. all the best [23:43] glitsj16: still won't work [23:43] Yeah i downloaded the latest full version client, i get to the part where it says to insert the disc and i click ok nothing happens [23:44] Ingsoc, go to /media/cdrom0, do you see the files there ? [23:44] Mark_ILB: great. [23:44] meoblast001: too bad, out of possible ideas here i'm afraid [23:44] glitsj16: i blame Ubuntu..... like i always do [23:45] meoblast001 what was the problem? Sorry just come in [23:45] slart, do you know if they have auto filling and stuff like vs2008 has? [23:45] SiDi ,no [23:45] susieemma: Ubuntu won't let me send files to my cell phone [23:45] meoblast001: heh, hopefully that'll stimulate someone into solving your issue ;) [23:45] meoblast001: is it detecting your phone okay? does sending files work on a different operating system? [23:45] meoblast001, my mother's phone and my mouse and my own phone work fine :P and i didnt install anything.. [23:45] glitsj16: i've wanted to get rid of Ubuntu many times.... but what options do i have..... no operating system works.... best i can get i'm afraid [23:46] rww: detects it [23:46] Ingsoc, can your drive detect *another* DVD-ROM ? [23:46] rww: haven't tried a different operating system [23:46] SliderMan: generally speaking development in linux is more "emacs" and less "visual basic".. some of the IDEs have these functions.. some don't.. you'll have to try them to see if they offer the right amount of hand-holding [23:46] meoblast001: some phones don't allow sending files (mine, for example). It's a limitation of the phone, not Ubuntu. [23:47] rww: but mine has FTP on it [23:47] rww: it even says it in the phone's settings [23:47] slart, visual studio not visual basic, and what is emacs? [23:47] meoblast001: So does mine. It only works one way for me. [23:47] SiDi: yes drive reads other dvds fine [23:47] got problems with a "one A110" netbook. it can not start firefox after "apt-get upgrade" but /var/cache/apt already deleted [23:47] SliderMan: That wasn't the point ;) [23:47] rww: oh.... how do i find out [23:47] SliderMan, emacs is an OS (this is a troll xD, its a very complete IDE, but i very dislike it) [23:47] Ingsoc, and do you have any friend who could test the DVD-ROM ? [23:47] SliderMan: emacs is a text-editor.. like a small fiat with a rocket engine.. nasty to look at but does a lot of things [23:48] Ingsoc, also, try to type "sudo mount /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0" in a console [23:48] Oh noes... not emacs vs vim again :D [23:48] slart, i need debuging [23:48] meoblast001 there was a regression with lots of bluetooth stuff in Intrepid, there's a launchpad bug about it but LP is down at the mo [23:48] meoblast001: dunno. I ended up trying it on Ubuntu, OS X, and Windows. It didn't work on any of them, so I figured it from there. [23:48] clearscreen, i sometimes use vim but my preference goes to gedit :p i like graphical apps [23:48] gvim [23:48] SiDi: same here, I use gedit [23:48] SliderMan: I think you'll like eclipse.. give it a try.. if the version in the repositories doesn't work for you, try downloading a version from their website [23:49] Stupendoussteve, gvim doesnt have a latex plugin afaik ;P [23:49] Slart, thanks alot. [23:49] How do I know what my default window manager is? [23:49] SiDi: the only thing I dislike about gEdit is how it handles indentation when the width of a line exceeds the width of the gEdit window [23:49] SliderMan, directly get the site's version, the repo's one is quite outdated, and eclipse's auto update system usually fails. [23:49] SiDi, thanks. [23:50] clearscreen, i must agree :) [23:50] rww: won't let me copy from it either [23:50] anyone knows about the "one A110 netbook" configuration? [23:50] anyone knows of a good httpd i could use? or just use apache? [23:50] meoblast001 do you have the gnome-bluetooth package installed? [23:50] SliderMan, lighttpd, apache, and there are more lightweight ones but i dont remember the name [23:50] susieemma: i think [23:50] * Slart is off to bed.. good night everyone [23:50] Night, Slart [23:51] susieemma: yeah [23:51] Ingsoc, did you try that command ? [23:51] meoblast001 is there an app called Bluetooth File Sharing in Accessories? [23:51] Sidi, do lightttpd has php support? [23:51] SliderMan, its a very complete one, afaik, so it should have php5 [23:51] Sidi, apache is kinda lame to configure i like GUIs [23:51] Sidi, thanks ;) [23:51] susieemma: yes [23:52] SliderMan, good luck to find an httpd with a configuration GUI :) those things are designed for servers (and apache is easy to configure ;P) [23:52] SliderMan: i believe lighthttpd only offers cgi support for PHP [23:52] Sidi, I dont like wirting too much to a configuration files. [23:52] meoblast001 I'm guessing that doesn't help then :) [23:53] SiDi: this is what I mean: http://i43.tinypic.com/2rz8gf8.png :P [23:53] SidI & SLart : here is the logs http://pastebin.com/m6df12383 [23:53] susieemma: face it... ubuntu hatesm e [23:53] clearscreen, i know :) i agree with you its sometimes annoying (but sometimes practical, too :) ) [23:53] susieemma: not much stuff in the world likes me : [23:53] OP [23:53] annoys the hell out of me :P [23:53] susieemma: i guess my keyboard doesn't either [23:54] omg! [23:54] Sidi, do you know if eclipse is open sourced? [23:54] ok heres my setup [23:54] Does Anyone Know of a Fix for the ata1 exception Emask 0x10 error? [23:54] How do I know what my currentl window manager is? I have ubuntu 8.10 is there a command that tells me this [23:54] meoblast001 I'm sure ubuntu is indifferent, I had to buy a new dongle before bluetooth would work properly in Intrepid for me and it worked fine in Hardy [23:54] can i overide this?: configure: WARNING: Requested 'sqlite3 >= 3.6.10' but version of SQLite is 3.5.9 [23:55] I found a laptop LG x300 ati, 2 gig ddr2, centrino, its 2-3 years old [23:55] SliderMan: "A project aiming to provide a universal toolset for development.

[23:55] or things I shuoldknow [23:55] LOL [23:55] Ingsoc, i googled (very fast) about sr0, it can mean that your DVD drive is having failures / the DVD-rom is buggy / your DVD drive can't properly read some DVD-ROMs (this scenario is ofc the worse :p) [23:55] hi, I have a laptop & 2nd monitor, the laptop's lcd screen is broken, so I'm trying to force ubuntu to use the 2nd one only. I do have image on this, but I seem to have problems with anything 3D/full screen related, any tips on how to set it up? Monitor resolution tool won't recognize the screens either [23:56] lewench: What environment are you in? Default Ubuntu is gnome which uses metacity [23:56] SliderMan, eclipse is opensource (its from sun if i remember well). you'll need some plugins for c++, check their website [23:56] meoblast001 there are a couple of other packages that do help but you probably have the installed already - I normally go to synaptic package manager, search for bluetooth and install everything that comes up :) [23:56] can i overide this?: configure: WARNING: Requested 'sqlite3 >= 3.6.10' but version of SQLite is 3.5.9 [23:56] Sidi, thanks i am not going to compile it tho :P i just like reading sources. [23:57] hi good people [23:57] What is the per-user equivalent of /etc/xdg/autostart ? [23:57] SliderMan, i think they have .debs anyways [23:57] eazel7, hi there [23:57] eazel7: Hi. :) [23:57] Sidi, they do [23:57] SiDi: could it be a bad disk? I have a friend that has a copy and I could try his. Or is it definitely the drive? [23:57] Stupendoussteve, well I got some metacity themes, but I cannot add it when I go to appearence. So thats why I am asking, so I can make sure I have the metacity window manager [23:57] when i play video in totem, i get a purple bar on the left side of the video, and it seems like one of the colors isnt aligned correctly. Anyone know how to fix? --- after installing ubuntu-restricted-extras it hasnt made a difference [23:57] i like ubuntu :P [23:57] Ingsoc, i suggest you check both the drive (with a similar DVD-ROM) and the DVD, possibly return the DVD to your shop saying it's having failures. [23:57] does ubuntu has any kind of 'auto-shutdown the system if temperature gets too high' or sortof? [23:58] Ingsoc, try your friend's copy, it can come from the drive or DVD. And if he has an install, you can grab his install and put it on your PC (just dont forget the libSDL file in /usr/lib, for multithread binary) [23:58] eazel7: Unless it's a hardware feature, I don't think so. [23:58] eazel7, this is hardware-side feature ;) [23:58] eazel7: You could probably write a program to do that in software if you wanted.
