| SerialNo | hi all | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| eazel7 | what happens is that after some time of using my laptop it starts shutting down, and that is much more likely to happen when I do CPU intensive tasks like running a VM | 00:00 |
| SerialNo | i heard that bsd is better than ubuntu | 00:00 |
| MikeyPooh | Does Anyone Know of a Fix for the ata1 exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 Serr 0x90000 action 0xe frozen error? | 00:00 |
| SerialNo | is it true? | 00:00 |
| mrsteveman1 | anyone know if its possible for Nginx to support multiple domains backed by apache vhosts? | 00:00 |
| jrib | !ot | SerialNo | 00:00 |
| ubottu | SerialNo: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 00:00 |
| SiDi | Ingsoc, check the etqw wiki, too, there is a way to install from a windows install / local files, if i remember well. | 00:00 |
| Stupendoussteve | I believe the linux kernel does have support for shutting down if it's getting too hot | 00:00 |
| MikeyPooh | seems to be the same with 8.04,8.10,9.04 | 00:01 |
| SerialNo | i use ubuntu | 00:01 |
| SerialNo | and a want to know | 00:01 |
| SerialNo | is ubuntu better then BSD | 00:01 |
| SiDi | Ingsoc, i'm giving you two links on the community forums, you might want to read them once you installed : its about linux client tweaking, there are cool things there : http://community.enemyterritory.com/forums/showthread.php?p=399431#post399431 and http://community.enemyterritory.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14144 | 00:01 |
| SerialNo | sooooo | 00:01 |
| jrib | SerialNo: cool. But discussing bsd vs linux is not an ubuntu support question. Please move the discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic | 00:01 |
| glitsj16 | glen_: the jaunty repo's have sqlite3 3.6.10 packages, download those from packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ and you'll be fine (you'll need libsqlite3-0, libsqlite3-dev and sqlite3) | 00:01 |
| Nikola | SerialNo: You allready know our answer... | 00:01 |
| SiDi | SerialNo, ubuntu and bsd are different OSes with different objectives | 00:01 |
| SerialNo | ahha | 00:01 |
| SerialNo | ok | 00:02 |
| Stupendoussteve | SerialNo: No. But BSD is not better either. Use what works for you | 00:02 |
| Stupendoussteve | If you like graphical tools you wouldn't like a BSD much anyway | 00:02 |
| SerialNo | ok | 00:02 |
| SerialNo | thanks | 00:02 |
| Nikola | SerialNo: Ask in BSD channel which is better, and they will say BSD is better, ask here and we will say Ubuntu is better... | 00:02 |
| SliderMan | Sidi, eclips only has tar.gz files =\ | 00:02 |
| SiDi | eazel7, your CPU gets too hot. if you're under warranty, get your laptop replaced, either dont buy from the same manufacturer again :) | 00:02 |
| SiDi | SliderMan, hf compiling then :p | 00:02 |
| SliderMan | ahh | 00:03 |
| SliderMan | i really hope it wont fail | 00:03 |
| SiDi | SliderMan, if it fails it means you'll have to install one or two -dev packages, nothing to worry about | 00:03 |
| eazel7 | SiDi: it does, but I don't care, and it's outside the warranty term. the only thing I want is ubuntu to stop shutting itself down when I use it, without even asking me | 00:03 |
| SliderMan | i just had 2 folders disapier on my desktop LOL | 00:04 |
| MikeyPooh | heh | 00:04 |
| Hariharakadan | Were they named Copperfield and Houdini? :) | 00:04 |
| SiDi | eazel7, its not ubuntu, it's your motherboard, to prevent your laptop from burning. | 00:05 |
| Joikus | what is the BEST thing about ubuntu | 00:05 |
| Joikus | if you had to say | 00:05 |
| Joikus | in 1 sentence | 00:05 |
| SliderMan | sidi what do i need to do to compile it? | 00:05 |
| SiDi | Joikus, the SABDFL of course | 00:05 |
| eazel7 | SiDi: sure it is not ubuntu, it doesn't happen in 8.04, neither on windows | 00:05 |
| Joikus | SABDFL ? | 00:05 |
| SliderMan | it says i need jdk | 00:06 |
| SliderMan | lol | 00:06 |
| Joikus | some kind of filesystem I guess | 00:06 |
| krolis | hi | 00:06 |
| SiDi | SliderMan, extract the .tar.gz, there is a README and an INSTALL file there ;) usually just type ./configure && sudo make && sudo make install | 00:06 |
| Stupendoussteve | Joikus: SiDi, SliderMan you do not need to be root to run make | 00:06 |
| SliderMan | sidi, its the binary | 00:06 |
| MikeyPooh | Does Anyone Know of a Fix for the ata1 exception Emask 0x10 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x90000 action 0xe frozen error?, I Get the same From Ubuntu Server 8.04,8.10,9.04 | 00:06 |
| Stupendoussteve | er | 00:06 |
| Stupendoussteve | Joikus ignore that ;) | 00:06 |
| SliderMan | sidi, just need jdk =) | 00:06 |
| SiDi | eazel7, then the cpu heat problem comes from ubuntu + your vm stuff causing the machine to overheat, i guess :P | 00:06 |
| Stupendoussteve | Joikus: I was going to say, I like that it runs quick on my netbook and works out of the box. Gentoo is my most used distro otherwise | 00:07 |
| andysky | for weeks now, I haven't been able to access blogspot.com pages, is this happening f other people here, too? | 00:07 |
| CyberAngel | Qustion: my system seems to have lost the Eth0. I know the card is there (shows in lspci -v). JHow do I get Ubuntu to reconize it again? | 00:07 |
| SiDi | Stupendoussteve, usually when you install an app that will put files in /usr/lib, /usr/bin and so on, you need to can write there | 00:07 |
| andysky | i'm trying this one now: http://google-code-updates.blogspot.com/2009/03/doug-crockford-javascript-good-parts.html | 00:07 |
| Joikus | I need the best answer | 00:07 |
| eazel7 | what I want is not to cool my cpu down, is to prevent the shut down when it does | 00:07 |
| Joikus | im just too curious :] | 00:07 |
| Joikus | the BEST thing about ubuntu | 00:07 |
| Joikus | that you can say | 00:07 |
| Stupendoussteve | SiDi: Yes, you should be root to run make install, building as root is not required and thus discouraged | 00:07 |
| Nikola | My laptop is always overheating when on Vista... when on Ubuntu, it runs cool :D | 00:07 |
| SliderMan | i really like the font of ubuntu :P | 00:07 |
| Joikus | screw windows and the rest | 00:07 |
| eazel7 | when it overheats | 00:07 |
| jrib | Joikus: #ubuntu-offtopic please | 00:08 |
| glitsj16 | andysky: that link shows up just fine here ... | 00:08 |
| CyberAngel | no one has any ideas? | 00:08 |
| SliderMan | btw can anyone help me install hebrew, the setup script failed | 00:08 |
| jrib | !helpme | CyberAngel | 00:08 |
| ubottu | CyberAngel: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 00:08 |
| SiDi | eazel7, i cant help you on that, i don't know any software-related thing that does that, sorry. | 00:08 |
| SliderMan | and now i have russian isntead | 00:08 |
| meoblast001 | http://rafb.net/p/5bdpVT25.html | 00:08 |
| meoblast001 | there's an error | 00:08 |
| SliderMan | instad** | 00:08 |
| CyberAngel | !helpme | 00:08 |
| SliderMan | and i cant type in hebrew :( | 00:08 |
| Stupendoussteve | CyberAngel: lspci shows hardware even if the card doesn't have a driver | 00:09 |
| andysky | glitsj16: man, could it be that so dns cache poisoning ? | 00:09 |
| SiDi | SliderMan, system -> administration -> language support :P | 00:09 |
| andysky | that so -> some | 00:09 |
| SliderMan | Sidi, tried that. it just made my desktop look "hebrew" like | 00:09 |
| SliderMan | but its not | 00:09 |
| SliderMan | and i can still only type in english/russian | 00:09 |
| CyberAngel | Stupendoussteve: I know. The driver WAS installed and working. | 00:09 |
| glitsj16 | andysky: i can't judge that i'm afraid | 00:09 |
| SliderMan | it says hebrew but its not :( | 00:10 |
| Stupendoussteve | CyberAngel: What is the card? | 00:10 |
| andysky | i'm using pdnsd, does anyone know of a way to clear its dns cache? | 00:10 |
| SiDi | SliderMan, check scim, you might need a file that adds hebrew support to scim (dont ask me how, i don't know ;p) | 00:10 |
| CyberAngel | Stupendoussteve: Realtek RTL-8139 | 00:10 |
| andysky | glitsj16: sure, no prob. at least i know it's on my side | 00:10 |
| SiDi | Good night everyone. | 00:10 |
| archman | hello | 00:10 |

| the10nitro | I need a shell script to loop through all the files in a directory, oldest change to newest change | 00:11 |
| SiDi | archman, there is a PPA : https://launchpad.net/~jerome-guelfucci/+archive/ppa | 00:11 |

| jrib | the10nitro: tried looking at the options in ls? | 00:12 |
| SiDi | Em3raldMcSquizzy, check the packaging guide, or download a package such as human-icon-theme and look at how its built | 00:12 |
| glitsj16 | andysky: there's a more selective way to clear pdnsd cache in the manpages i believe, you might want to keep everything that works besides blogspot | 00:13 |
| Em3raldMcSquizzy | SiDi: thanx, I will check that out Thanks. | 00:13 |

| Raylz | hi, i have to execute an autostart script with root rights, where to put it? | 00:13 |

| ubottu | Raylz: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab.

| SiDi | archman, its experimental, hehe :) You can also wait 19 days and have 4.6 shipped in jaunty | 00:13 |
| andysky | glitsj16: it works now! :) ty very much! | 00:13 |
| Raylz | jrib: root rights | 00:13 |

| wolter | michal_, i have the same problem, and as well as you did, i researched. I found that there is a really big bug which remains unsolved. | 00:15 |
| Iceman_B|SSH | is it normal that I need to install "make" on a server system ? I thought it came with it | 00:15 |
| SiDi | archman, you might want to ask in #xubuntu-devel then, there you'll find the xfce hackers. Jérôme (owner of the PPA) is under Debian, afaik, so he might not be able to help you with your Intrepid issues | 00:15 |

| raylu | Frijolie: sftp/scp, of course | 00:21 |
| xsg | i need some war games | 00:21 |

| Frijolie | raylu, yes it's installed | 00:22 |
| Raylz | which package do i need for iwl3945 firmware? | 00:22 |
| Em3raldMcSquizzy | xsg: yup, erm, I can't remember the help page about that stuff; I am sure others here know the help page. enabling the other repositories is rediculously easy though. you can choose Software Sources from your system/administration panel | 00:22 |
| wolter | michal_, if you want to, you can give me your email and ill tell you whenever i find a fix, but do so in pm if you desire me to notice you | 00:22 |

| cez_ | ill show another pic | 00:50 |
| michal_ | archman: what do you mean by Volume Applet 2.24.1? and there is no boost box in preferencies | 00:50 |
| archman | michal_ I have that version...hmm...strange you don't have it...then it's maybe soundcard dependent... | 00:50 |

| Stupendoussteve | cez_: Does every video have that? | 00:52 |
| archman | michal_, yes, it's soundcard dependent, I switch it to other, and I don't have a boost anymore... :-/ | 00:52 |
| cez_ | Stupendoussteve, yes | 00:52 |

| cez_ | ive tryed all i can think to fix the video, it just seems like one color layer is off from the rest | 00:54 |
| Stupendoussteve | dmeth: Yes, the windows PC should receive an ip address from the router dhcp server | 00:54 |
| dmeth | do i need to serve the dhcp or use my router? | 00:55 |
| Frijolie | the documentation for proftpd SUCKS! | 00:55 |
| Stupendoussteve | Just the router. The laptop (I'm assuming) is transparent | 00:55 |

| cez_ | Stupendoussteve, got any ideas? | 00:56 |
| happy-dude | can anyone help diagnose my -swiftweasel-not-starting-even-though-installed issue? | 00:56 |

| raylu | happy-dude: run it in a terminal | 00:56 |
| Stupendoussteve | cez_: Not if it's every video. I was trying to rule out it just being encoded badly | 00:57 |
| dmeth | over my internal wired network | 00:57 |
| glitsj16 | happy-dude: if you start swiftweasel from terminal, does it throw up any errors ? | 00:57 |

| emoXodus | its a trendnet tew-623pi | 01:01 |
| meoblast001 | raylu: why would it not support file transfer if it has FTP on it? | 01:01 |
| raylu | meoblast001: your phone doesn't have ftp... | 01:01 |
| Iceman_B|SSH | raylu: okay. thanks. I'll isntall the needed components as I go then | 01:01 |
| meoblast001 | fayyes it does | 01:01 |
| nasso | emoXodus, please type my name first when you write to me. its alot easier for me to see your messages that way | 01:01 |
| Shadow121 | oh my word | 01:01 |

| emoXodus | nasso, okay sry | 01:02 |
| glitsj16 | pwnedulongtime: command-not-found and command-not-found-data packages is what you are looking for perhaps ? | 01:02 |
| nasso | emoXodus, no problem :) | 01:02 |
| Iceman_B|SSH | but yeah, using SFTP to transfer files is really slow. I'm going from an external hdd hooked up to this XP laptop, over samba, to my linux server, all LAN. 1.9 MB/s tops :( | 01:02 |

| pwnedulongtime | glitsj16: no, there is a script that generates a list of every file installed from all installed packages, using apt-file i believe, then checks you system to make sure that file is still there | 01:03 |

| nasso | emoXodus, the user SonicSteve posts a link to a guide that tells you how to install it | 01:06 |
| raylu | Iceman_B|SSH: and you said you get 1.9MB/s with samba. did you mean sftp in that one? | 01:06 |

| Iceman_B|SSH | Im using the default -server config btw, I only added a share of mine | 01:08 |

| ubottu | happy-dude: 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. :-) | 01:09 |
| dmeth | Detrix: if the burner burns it as bootable, and your bios is set to boot to it | 01:09 |
| nasso | emoXodus, that guide doesnt look all that "new user"-friendly. dont hesitate to ask :) | 01:09 |

| happy-dude | flannel: responsiveness was a bit slow | 01:11 |
| emoXodus | nasso, whats the build essentials package? | 01:11 |

| nasso | emoXodus, you open up a terminal and write what is in the "Code:" section in the guide | 01:12 |
| nasso | emoXodus, the terminal can be found under applications -> accessories -> terminal | 01:13 |
| ogelami | sudo apt-get install ssl doesn't work :/ | 01:13 |
| happy-dude | I believe on a P3 machine, I can get better responsiveness (not necessarily benchmarks, just reponsiveness) | 01:13 |
| raylu | happy-dude: what does running "uname -a" give you? | 01:13 |

| glitsj16 | raven: have you seen the x264 and libx264-59 packages yet ? i have the latter and winFF apparently uses that to convert to mp4 h.264 | 01:51 |
| nillo | PCTeacher012: I see what the deal is with Xabacus; one for Motif, one for plain X. Not sure that's the issue on others. Thought the description was identical. | 01:51 |
| raylu | meoblast001: try #ubuntu+1 | 01:51 |

| platypus73 | left windows | 01:54 |
| PCTeacher012 | nillo: The menu that has all your programs, and where you go into to look for programs, is it duplicted in there? or do you want to remove the package itself? | 01:54 |
| raylu | Guest28187: um, how large is your windows partition? | 01:54 |
| elros_azothi | lol - completely? i mean really, i use ubuntu and windows because after all we live in a windows world | 01:54 |
| raylu | Guest28187: o.0... you could have told me. i would have tried to come up with other ways to get the data to me | 01:54 |
| Guest28187 | well at first i had a 160GB, then i "shrink volume" and it was about 30GB or so | 01:54 |
| elros_azothi | ubuntu is an extension of my computing life | 01:55 |
| Guest28187 | i got the second partition at 30gb | 01:55 |
| raylu | elros_azothi: i know of a few other people who are completely windows-free | 01:55 |
| platypus73 | can i start a company wit it based in ubuntu? | 01:55 |
| safruhani | i don't use windoz | 01:55 |
| PCTeacher012 | elros_azothi: I removed windows completly, and went to Ubuntu Intrepid, i jst use wine to run windows programs | 01:55 |
| glitsj16 | raven: still no go ? i use winFF frontend to ffmpeg, there it shows in the prefs and works .. can't remember what/if i had to install anything else .. if my memory returns i'll let you know | 01:55 |

| FabParma | Please, how to copy files from a ms-wimdows share by shell? | 01:55 |
| nillo | PCTeacher012: I think the Xabacus listing is just confusing in the Add/Remove programs app; seems to be two distinct packages. MountManager, OTOH, I think has two identical entries...checking. | 01:56 |
| platypus73 | Guindos | 01:56 |
| PCTeacher012 | elros_azothi: Yes, i know some people like that | 01:56 |
| Hemebond | raylu: Where did you get your Flash plugin? | 01:56 |
| raylu | Guest28187: oh. actually, that 30gb at the end is unpartitioned space | 01:56 |
| raven | glitsj16 yes i tried also winff but it does not works ... | 01:56 |
| raylu | Hemebond: from the adobe website | 01:56 |
| PCTeacher012 | nillo: Xabacus has multiple types, from what i understand, and ill check too | 01:56 |
| Guest28187 | raylu: ok... | 01:56 |
| Hemebond | Ah, I might try that then. I'm currently using the one from the repository. | 01:56 |

| nillo | PCTeacher012: Agreed on Xabacus. It's just confusing to someone less familiar, like me. Not sure what the deal is with MountManager. | 01:57 |

| raven | glitsj16 hm do not know... i'll keep trying ;) | 01:58 |
| Enigma | but Wine? | 01:58 |
| Enigma | i thought it was just a windows emulator | 01:58 |
| Frijolie | why, whenever you launch gedit--for example--from a terminal it "hangs" the terminal. Meaning it's in use until you close the program? | 01:58 |
| raylu | Guest28187: so selecting use largest contiguous free space replaces the entire thing with ubuntu? that's kind of strange | 01:58 |
| PCTeacher012 | nillo: Some people like different versions, and sometimes it is an addon | 01:58 |
| Guest28187 | yes. when i click that option | 01:58 |
| Guest28187 | it has the before picture | 01:58 |
| Guest28187 | and then the after picture | 01:58 |
| Guest28187 | and the after is 100% ubuntu | 01:58 |
| PCTeacher012 | Enigma: Oh, oen of my friends made a browser called that, Wine can run under any, and emulates other OS's programs | 01:59 |
| PCTeacher012 | Enigma: http://www.winehq.com | 01:59 |
| nillo | PCTeacher012: So it is normal to have separate packages in a default install? That's confusing to me. | 01:59 |
| === partira53482 is now known as Roi_des_Philosop | ||

| raylu | Guest28187: you could do manual partitioning | 02:00 |
| PCTeacher012 | nillo: Sometimes, depending on the install, Xabacus "Motif Version" is just an addon to have extra functionality, while the plain X version is the orignal, both are stand alone, but one can add to the other | 02:00 |
| Guest28187 | so wat should i do?? | 02:00 |
| PCTeacher012 | Enigma: I use wine everyday, what are you tyring to emulate? | 02:00 |

| Guest28187 | one second raylu lemme get it started up | 02:03 |
| PCTeacher012 | slicker: Can you do a search on your computer? It is possible that it was installed in a different location by accident and wine runs it from there. | 02:04 |

| PCTeacher012 | Guest: Have to install a partition manager, cant seem to find the one preinstalled lol | 02:24 |
| Guest28187 | o ok. well i got time | 02:24 |
| PCTeacher012 | scv: Which bus are you plugging it into? | 02:24 |
| PCTeacher012 | guest: kk, my comp is fast at downloading, it wont be too long | 02:24 |
| Guest28187 | kk. | 02:24 |
| Spence_ | lol, sorry. I just installed Ubuntu, i guess one could say i'm a noob. I Have ran Windows up until now, i figured i'd try linux. however, when i goto "Computer" under places, my C drive is not listed. How can i access it? | 02:24 |
| _d0c_F-TC | i need help using a dvd rom with ubuntu 8.10..nothings coming up | 02:25 |
| Flannel | Spence_: Ubuntu (and Linux) does things differently. everything is under '/', drives don't have letters, etc. What are you looking for in your computer? | 02:25 |
| Guest28187 | ok doc | 02:25 |
| xcv | PCTeacher012: i've got 2 usb ports on this rig. i'm plugging it into !=the other one | 02:25 |
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: this is a DVD Rom Drive right | 02:25 |
| Guest28187 | so you sure it burned right? | 02:25 |
| Spence_ | Nothing in specific, just music files and pictures i have with windows | 02:26 |
| _d0c_F-TC | no WoW game dvd | 02:26 |
| Guest28187 | well _doc does it show up when you look in explorer? | 02:26 |
| PCTeacher012 | xcv: fingerprint reader... nice lol, gonna look into it at detail | 02:26 |
| Guest28187 | that is if your on windows at fist | 02:26 |
| Guest28187 | *first | 02:26 |
| _d0c_F-TC | no | 02:26 |
| Guest28187 | well id get a new disc | 02:26 |
| Flannel | Spence_: ah. Did you dual boot? | 02:26 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, you should install neft-3g drivers to access your "c:/" Drive tho Ubuntu/linux does not use letters for the drive | 02:26 |
| Guest28187 | fresh, then burn it. | 02:26 |
| ^Einstein | hey, quick question, how might I be able to CP across a filesystem that Linux can't execute stat on? | 02:26 |
| Spence_ | Yeah, i dual booted | 02:27 |
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: I mean this: Is your CD Reader (Visable part on on computer.. Hardware) Is that a DVD/RW drive? | 02:27 |
| _d0c_F-TC | i kinda wanna go back to windows xp or vista...but idn were to anyone no how? | 02:27 |
| Dreamglider | ntfs-3g ** | 02:27 |
| Spence_ | Where can I install neft-3g drivers, and what exactly is it? | 02:27 |
| Guest28187 | wernt u already on windows? | 02:27 |
| _d0c_F-TC | no im on ubuntu | 02:27 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, it's a driver that allows linux to access NTFS filesystems | 02:28 |
| Raylz | Spence_: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g | 02:28 |
| _d0c_F-TC | i f'ed up and deleted windows wen i dl'ed ubuntu.. | 02:28 |
| Flannel | !ntfs-3g | Spence_ | 02:28 |
| ubottu | Spence_: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 02:28 |
| Iceman_B|SSH | Flannel: oh, that worked better than I thought. | 02:28 |
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: Okay, do you have install CD? | 02:28 |
| _d0c_F-TC | yes | 02:28 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, is it really that big of a problem ;) | 02:28 |
| Raylz | _d0c_F-TC: mounted partition? | 02:28 |
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: Just put that in, then isntall | 02:28 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, you can install it by typing in terminal: sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g | 02:28 |
| _d0c_F-TC | it wont pop up.. | 02:28 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, you can try data recovery | 02:29 |
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: Is this a new CD Drive? | 02:29 |
| _d0c_F-TC | no space..were would i do that? | 02:29 |
| Spence_ | alright, thank you. I will try it dreamglider. | 02:29 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, well if i read correctly and yo accidentally deleted your windows partition? | 02:29 |
| _d0c_F-TC | yes..only ubuntu on my hardrive | 02:30 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, you can get something akin to @active undelete (don't use that, it sucks) | 02:30 |
| space_cadet | and... | 02:30 |
| _d0c_F-TC | i deleted my windows xp i guess | 02:30 |
| space_cadet | if you totally erased your HDD and wrote ubuntu OVER your windows partition | 02:30 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, np :) | 02:30 |
| ^Einstein | I need to cp files from ntfs to ext3, and of course I get the "cannot stat" error... how does nautilus do it (out of curiosity), and how might I do it in a script, even if not with cp (out of necessity), given that I can't stat files on said fs? | 02:31 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, good luck getting it back because 10 to 1 you probably wrote over everything that used to be in the windows partition. | 02:31 |
| _d0c_F-TC | ya i did space | 02:31 |
| fusa_ | anyone know what causes a windows "Launching http cache" to appear occasionally in my taskbar? and how to stop it? | 02:31 |
| _d0c_F-TC | bahh..gay | 02:31 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, do you still have a windows disk? | 02:31 |
| === fusa_ is now known as fusa | ||
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: AGain, is this a NEW CD/DVD Drive? | 02:31 |
| LjL | _d0c_F-TC: what, your computer likes other computers of its same gender? | 02:32 |
| space_cadet | !recovery | 02:32 |
| ubottu | To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" | 02:32 |
| _d0c_F-TC | nop =/ i was wondering if maybe i gcould use a torrent windows? | 02:32 |
| space_cadet | !undelete | 02:32 |
| ubottu | Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Recovering deleted files on !ext3 filesystems can be virtually impossible, although methods that might work is some cases are described at at http://www.xs4all.nl/~carlo17/howto/undelete_ext3.html and http://projects.izzysoft.de/trac/ext3undel | 02:32 |
| Spence_ | Dreamglider, i did what you said and i was reported, "ntfs-3g is already the newest version. | 02:32 |
| Spence_ | " however, i still do not see my windows partition under computer..? | 02:32 |
| vavoysh | questtion: how can i find out the name of a hard drive? | 02:32 |
| Raylz | Spence_: maybe you didnt shutdown cleanly | 02:32 |
| vavoysh | and is there a trigger list for ubottu? | 02:32 |
| Spence_ | sorry if i'm being a pain in the ass, haha, i'm 200% windows orintated | 02:32 |
| Raylz | Spence_: did you "crash" windows? | 02:32 |
| LjL | !bot > vavoysh (vavoysh, see the private message from ubottu) | 02:32 |
| vavoysh | thank you | 02:33 |
| Raylz | Spence_: boot windows up and restart | 02:33 |
| Spence_ | i do not think so? i shutdown cleanly everythime | 02:33 |
| Guest28187 | hey pcteach012, hows it coming? | 02:33 |
| Spence_ | every time* | 02:33 |
| _d0c_F-TC | how do i mount an "mdf" file? | 02:33 |
| PCTeacher012 | _d0c: Yes you can, but you cant update | 02:33 |
| Spence_ | Raylz, is there a way to boot up windows without restarting my computer, no? | 02:33 |
| PCTeacher012 | Guest: 5 minute download left | 02:33 |
| PCTeacher012 | Spence:No | 02:33 |
| Guest28187 | ok | 02:33 |
| Raylz | Spence_: no^^ | 02:34 |
| PCTeacher012 | Spence: Unless you have Mac LOL | 02:34 |
| Raylz | _d0c_F-TC: try mdf2iso | 02:34 |
| Spence_ | ah, alright. i will try that now, i'll be back xD | 02:34 |
| === Guest28187 is now known as Jay | ||
| Jay | ok pcteacher012, now im: Jay | 02:34 |
| PCTeacher012 | Spence: kk | 02:34 |
| vavoysh | LjL: how can i find out the name of an unmounted hard drive? | 02:34 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, well... this may get you started... if you wish to regain any important data, you may want to stop using the HDD until you can put it in another system as a slave, using windows, and then try one of many utilities.. . http://www.google.com/search?q=undelete+a+ntfs+partition | 02:34 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, sudo ntfs-3g /dev/ice /mount/point -o force should mount the windows partition after an unclean shutdown | 02:34 |
| === Jay is now known as Guest83795 | ||
| mattcen | Raylz: mdf2iso doesn't "mount" does it? I thought it only converted | 02:34 |
| LjL | vavoysh: "fdisk -l" might give you a clue | 02:35 |
| PCTeacher012 | Jay: Thank you for shorter name :P still waiting on download | 02:35 |
| Raylz | mattcen: yep, then you mount the iso | 02:35 |
| ^Einstein | I need to cp files from ntfs to ext3, and of course I get the "cannot stat" error... how does nautilus do it (out of curiosity), and how might I do it in a script, even if not with cp (out of necessity), given that I can't stat files on said fs? | 02:35 |
| mattcen | Raylz: right | 02:35 |
| vavoysh | LjL: just type in sudo fdisk-l ? | 02:35 |
| peepsalot | what do i use to make a data dvd? | 02:35 |
| mattcen | ^Einstein: can you describe the full error? I Don't think I've ever seen it | 02:35 |
| LjL | vavoysh: "fdisk -l", not "fdisk-l". you might need sudo in front, depending on the ubuntu version | 02:36 |
| peepsalot | just copying files from my filesystem over? | 02:36 |
| LjL | vavoysh: try without first | 02:36 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, this may also be of some help.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCapEFNZAJ0&feature=PlayList&p=E470E7505DE52C20 | 02:36 |
| vavoysh | LjL: ok | 02:36 |
| space_cadet | anything along those lines would be a god send _d0c_F-TC | 02:36 |
| ^Einstein | mattcen: $ cp /path/to/mounted/ntfs/partition/whatever.file /path/to/another/partition's/directory will return cp: cannot stat: bla bla bla no such file or directory. | 02:37 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, if you want to maximize the data you can recover... stop using the drive immediately. | 02:37 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, remember, you can run ubuntu from the cd... in live mode. | 02:37 |
| meoblast001 | can someone help me set up bluetooth with my cell phone on Ubuntu 8.10... i've been trying since 5 o clock to get this to work | 02:38 |
| ^Einstein | mattcen: really quite simple, but a critical fault that I can't cp across filesystems, or at least from ntfs even when it's mounted rw. Wanna see that line in fstab? | 02:38 |
| meoblast001 | it denies retriving or sending files to or from it | 02:38 |
| mattcen | ^Einstein: if you like. Perhaps PM it to me | 02:38 |
| Dreamglider | _d0c_F-TC, you might want to have a look at testdisk and photorec to recover your data. | 02:39 |
| PCTeacher012 | Jay: 2 minutes, but the ext3 format takes up 99% of it, (im finding exact percent) but the swap format i am not 100% sure how much it uses (till i check, 1 min) | 02:39 |
| Guest83795 | ok | 02:40 |
| Guest83795 | i dont get what your saying but ok | 02:40 |
| Spence_ | I booted up Windows and successifully shut down, now what? | 02:40 |
| meoblast001 | am i the only person who expects ubuntu to work? | 02:40 |
| Raylz | meoblast001: it works ye :) | 02:41 |
| _d0c_F-TC | im just gonna throw my comp out the dam window..lol | 02:41 |
| space_cadet | it works | 02:41 |
| PCTeacher012 | meoblast: What do you mean? Yes, Ubuntu works like a charm | 02:41 |
| PCTeacher012 | Spence: What is your questiong exactly? | 02:41 |
| meoblast001 | Raylz: am i the only person who actually does stuff in ubuntu? | 02:41 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, pls don't you could get a ticket | 02:41 |
| Spence_ | Ralyz, now what? | 02:41 |
| space_cadet | _d0c_F-TC, i have.. | 02:41 |
| Raylz | meoblast001: no | 02:41 |
| _d0c_F-TC | lol | 02:41 |
| xcv | meoblast001: not all bluetooth devices support file transfer | 02:41 |
| PCTeacher012 | meoblast: I do a ton in Ubuntu xD | 02:41 |
| meoblast001 | xcv: but mine does | 02:41 |
| RPS | Hello Guys, I have a question that maybe someone will know. I'd like to capture the audio off an Adobe Flash Player audio clip. I'm hoping someone might have tackled this one or might be able to point me in the right direction. I'm 8.10 Ubuntu user | 02:41 |
| _d0c_F-TC | im hating ubuntu..lol | 02:41 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, sudo fdisk -l will list your disks/partitions | 02:41 |
| Spence_ | Oh, i was wondering how to access my Windows drive/partition, it doesnt even show up under computer | 02:42 |
| meoblast001 | xcv: because last i checked, FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol | 02:42 |
| Raylz | RPS: what about audacity :) | 02:42 |
| Dreamglider | Spence_, pm me | 02:42 |
| Raylz | RPS: and link the outgoing sound to incoming | 02:42 |
| meoblast001 | brb have to restart | 02:43 |
| meoblast001 | bluetooth won't work | 02:43 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, ftp = Failure to Pay | 02:43 |
| RPS | I'll check it out Raylz ....the outgoing/incoming sound sounds promising! | 02:43 |
| xcv | meoblast001: thought i saw you were trying to transfer using bluetooth to cell, not ftp. sorry if i misunderstood | 02:43 |
| Raylz | RPS: i guess you can set that in your mixer | 02:43 |
| xcv | oops, guess he didn't see that | 02:43 |
| mtn_welfare | Hey gang, I have a question for you all. I'm having a problem running apt-get update.. etc. I keep getting failed to fetch errors. The box was running 6.10 but was upgraded to 7.04. The upgrade appeared to go smoothly. Except now apt-get fails.. | 02:43 |
| space_cadet | mtn_welfare, you have to update sources.list | 02:44 |
| space_cadet | or lst | 02:44 |
| space_cadet | i keep getting that mixed up | 02:44 |
| PCTeacher012 | RPS: I use Ardour, it is equivalent of Adobe's thing lol | 02:44 |
| space_cadet | mtn_welfare, basically change your sources from the old to the new | 02:44 |
| PCTeacher012 | Jay: Finished downloading, installing now | 02:44 |
| Guest83795 | okie dokie. | 02:44 |
| teethdood | how do I display firefox's File Edit View menus when sites hide it from me? | 02:44 |
| mtn_welfare | space_cadet do mean changing instances of edgy to fiesty? | 02:44 |
| space_cadet | yep | 02:44 |
| mtn_welfare | OK... brb | 02:45 |

| BigMoopies | Hello, when I just booted I got a "routine check of drives /dev/sda5" , is this like a chkdsk ? /dev/sda5 I believe is my NTFS partition for WindowsXP | 02:45 |
| RPS | PCTeacher012, I found a small audio clip about 30 seconds long that I want to grab and it's running in Flash Player | 02:46 |
| teethdood | PCTeacher012: MSNBC, showing space pics. They hide everything | 02:46 |
| xcv | meoblast001: thought i saw you were trying to transfer using bluetooth to cell, not ftp. sorry if i misunderstood | 02:46 |
| space_cadet | PCTeacher012, bad sites :p | 02:46 |
| meoblast001 | xcv: idk... bluetooth ftp | 02:46 |
| Guest83795 | by bad sites... | 02:46 |
| jdu | BigMoopies, it can't be ntfs if is checking it, I don't think | 02:46 |
| mtn_welfare | bazhang - the urls for the sources should still work though? correct? | 02:46 |
| blackmist | darn my firefox is not working i have to reinstall it now | 02:46 |
| PCTeacher012 | RPS: Audacity is best in that :P | 02:46 |
| teethdood | Alt+down doesn't do anything | 02:46 |
| mooseman447 | does anybody know if there is any way to login to a shell to a computer connected via usb? | 02:47 |
| bazhang | mtn_welfare, you need to read the upgrade guide; let me give you a link | 02:47 |
| BigMoopies | jdu, yeah sorry about that. it's not | 02:47 |
| PCTeacher012 | teethdood: Okay, send a link so i can try some stuff | 02:47 |

| BigMoopies | jdu, was this check actually needed? I skipped it | 02:48 |
| mtn_welfare | bazhang ~ thx | 02:48 |
| PCTeacher012 | are you using firefox @teethdood | 02:48 |
| teethdood | PCTeacher012: yes I am (well technically Shiretoko 3.5pre4) | 02:48 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, your prolly looking for something obex commander related | 02:48 |
| PCTeacher012 | but basically firefox correct? @teethdood | 02:49 |
| teethdood | PCTeacher012: yes | 02:49 |
| sebsebseb | 02:49 | |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, if it's a bt phone, it prolly uses obex push | 02:49 |

| meoblast001 | space_cadet: obex fails | 02:49 |
| space_cadet | really... | 02:49 |
| space_cadet | what kinda phone? | 02:49 |
| teethdood | PCTeacher012: it is firefox. Firefox for ubuntu is n ow called Shiretoko (like Debian's Iceweasel) | 02:49 |
| space_cadet | shiretoko? | 02:50 |

| sebsebseb | sounds like that guy | 02:50 |
| space_cadet | i have firefox | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | sounds like that guy is on about a developmention version of Firefox 3.1 | 02:50 |
| space_cadet | Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; | 02:50 |
| PCTeacher012 | teethdood: Really? I have latest (8.1 is latest right?) and it is called firefox | 02:50 |
| teethdood | Firefox 3.5 is Shiretoko under ubuntu (well jaunty anyway) | 02:50 |
| space_cadet | PCTeacher012, yep | 02:50 |
| sebsebseb | teethdood: Shiretoko is the Firefox development version | 02:51 |
| xcv | from wiki: shiretoko = The code name for Mozilla Firefox 3.5. | 02:51 |
| mtn_welfare | space_cadet: we changed all instances of edgy to feisty, still getting same errors. bazhang, thanks for the link, but we are working remotely and we dont have access to the gui | 02:51 |
| PCTeacher012 | xcv: Oh! I have firefox 3.0.3 :p can u send link for upgrade? I want latest :) | 02:51 |

| space_cadet | meoblast001, i suppose you could use the datacable... i grabbed my sd card out and did it that way.. | 02:59 |

| Jay555 | it said install | 03:04 |
| Jay555 | then i rebooted | 03:04 |
| PCTeacher012 | ya, it should give 2 options for install | 03:04 |
| Jay555 | and it said windows vista or ubuntu | 03:05 |
| johni | techqbert, I think they use windows media player drm | 03:05 |

| blue112 | glitsj16: Thanks. | 03:06 |
| Axan | sebsebseb: cant find /boot/grub/stage1 nor /grub/stage1, even if when i mount my fs i can see the file in /media/disk/boot/grub/stage1, i tried chrooted to /media/disk but it doesnt work neither. | 03:06 |
| Jay555 | but... | 03:06 |

| sebsebseb | Axan: is Grub there when you boot up? | 03:07 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: why am i not authorized to copy images off | 03:07 |
| PCTeacher012 | you must choose by: F8 between manufacturers logo and windows boot screen, return to OS choosing screen, choose ubuntu | 03:07 |
| glitsj16 | blue112: no problem, sometimes this can be quite handy from a script as well | 03:07 |

| PCTeacher012 | Okay, then, it asked you to boot into ubutnu? but took forever? | 03:10 |
| Jay555 | now i have no cd in, and am booting, then i clicked ubuntu and now im waiting, for a looong time | 03:10 |

| sebsebseb | Axan: you can install Ubuntu onto a small partition, and make it even smaller by getting rid of everything, but /boot where Grub is. I have done that before, but then the kernel updates update the grub that is part of the install and such | 03:10 |
| psykus | dragged it from the folder and held down shift/ctrl/whatever. but just now I used the "create a launcher" thing from the desktop menu and it seems to work now | 03:10 |
| Flannel | Axan: Why not just move /home to a separate drive? | 03:10 |

| ubottu | Spence_: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux - More information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine - Search the !AppDB for application compatibility ratings - Join #winehq for application help - See !virtualizers for running Windows (or another OS) inside Ubuntu | 03:25 |
| LaikeSF | I'm reading it as an automatic install, but I may be just misreading that whole message | 03:25 |
| oscurochu | However, Spence_, not all programs will work the same, its the closest thing to running windows programs | 03:25 |
| johni | Spence_, I recommend trying to use only linux apps and only when you do not have any other alternatives try wine | 03:26 |
| oscurochu | I am trying to get the sphere to work for desktop cube. | 03:26 |

| space_cadet | LavaHot, basically the only difference, windows 7 will destroy your grub... | 03:26 |
| Joikus | I just installed ubuntu | 03:26 |
| Joikus | where do i go to update everything | 03:26 |
| LavaHot | space_cadet: I already read through that. this is on a single drive laptop. I'll need to repartition then install 7, but i don't quite know how to do that. | 03:27 |
| johni | Joikus, Update Manager | 03:27 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, so is mine... | 03:27 |
| ammagendut | am i invisible here? | 03:27 |
| Joikus | thank you | 03:27 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, that's all on one drive... | 03:27 |
| PCTeacher012 | amma: No | 03:27 |
| PCTeacher012 | amma: What do you need? | 03:28 |
| LavaHot | ... okay, I'll re-read that then | 03:28 |
| meoblast001 | i just killed skype | 03:28 |
| meoblast001 | but it wont stop rining | 03:28 |
| meoblast001 | nvm | 03:28 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, the way I am thinking should happen... install windows 7 (your grub will be destroyed..) | 03:28 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, restore grub, but you have no way to boot to windows 7 | 03:28 |
| glitsj16 | oscurochu: you'll need to activate/configure the "enable cube reflection and deformation" plugin in ccsm (compizconfig-settings-manager) | 03:28 |
| oscurochu | Is anybody familar with compiz that can help me? | 03:29 |
| ariqs | how much memory am I allowed per process? | 03:29 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, boot to vista, and follow the guide.. | 03:29 |
| vocx | ariqs, all of it? How much do you need? | 03:29 |
| johni | Joikus, if you are new to ubuntu I recommend reading forums and documentation; give google a try; not only that you find the information that you want but you will also find additional useful things | 03:29 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, it *should* be enough to get you going.. | 03:29 |
| lstarnes | ariqs: usually as much free ram as you have | 03:30 |
| ariqs | vocx: well, I'm getting "bad alloc" at around 2.5 gigs | 03:30 |
| space_cadet | LavaHot, from what I figured out, when i did all that, i had vista installed then win7 then ubuntu.. windows' boot loader was on the win7 partition.. | 03:30 |

| ubottu | JJSmith260: 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) | 03:33 |
| rvn | in the gnome session thing, i set xfdesktop to start - it doesn't. | 03:33 |
| glitsj16 | ariqs: /etc/security/limits.conf might have a way of setting it to unlimited, not sure | 03:33 |
| rvn | if i run it manually it works | 03:33 |
| ariqs | glitsj16, thanks. I'll look into what I can do with that. It does look promising | 03:34 |
| oscurochu | glitsj16: I have enabled cube reflection and deformation and i still see a cube. | 03:34 |
| Flannel | JJSmith260: You'll need to paste that to pastebin, and then give us the link. | 03:34 |
| JJSmith260 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/144560/ | 03:34 |
| JJSmith260 | I think that's the link | 03:34 |
| glitsj16 | oscurochu: set the prefs of that plugin to sphere (deformation, last tab i believe) | 03:35 |
| Flannel | JJSmith260: it is. And yes, it appears that you've deleted your windows | 03:35 |
| JJSmith260 | Do you know if there's any way I can recover the lost files? | 03:35 |
| oscurochu | glitsj16: I have. Why is your text showing up in a different tab and it doesn't allow me to type into it without a command? I don't understand what is going on./ | 03:35 |
| Flannel | JJSmith260: Unfortunately no, there really isn't. | 03:36 |

| glitsj16 | oscurochu: me neither, besides highlighting when i put your name into a reply line i don't do voodoo :) | 03:37 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | and then within that share, define more users and set quotas | 03:37 |
| PerryArmstrong | when i run sudo apt-get update i get this error E: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. | 03:37 |
| Flannel | PerryArmstrong: pastebin the output of that command. | 03:37 |
| vocx | JJSmith260, yes you can recover lost files, but it is not for everyone, you need to use software that reads the disk for pieces and put them together. | 03:37 |
| JJSmith260 | What software? | 03:38 |
| glitsj16 | oscurochu: you might have "only deform on mouse rotate" box checked in the deformation tab perhaps ? | 03:38 |
| PerryArmstrong | Flannel; http://paste.ubuntu.com/144561/ | 03:38 |
| oscurochu | glitsj16: Im using chatzilla, and its a tab labeled "freenode" (without the quotes). Anyway, I have "desktop cube", "rotate cube " and "cube reflection and deformation" turned on and it isnt working when i press control+alt+left-click. i see a cube, not a sphere. | 03:39 |
| PerryArmstrong | Flannel; alternately just check this video problem at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7015500#post7015500 | 03:39 |
| Flannel | PerryArmstrong: That's likely a temporary error due ot network issues or whatnot. It'll only affect -backports | 03:39 |
| Pyles17 | My wireless doesn't work. lshw -C network says the card is "unclaimed". But the driver comes with Ubuntu. I don't know what to do | 03:39 |
| oscurochu | glitsj16: I've tried changing that with no luck. | 03:40 |
| Pyles17 | p.s. it's an intel 3945 card | 03:40 |
| PerryArmstrong | Flannel; but then i am not able to do the update | 03:40 |
| vocx | JJSmith260, I really don't know more. You'll have to search for yourself. When you delete a file it is not actually erased, only made unaccessible for the operating system, so the magnetized sectors remain and it is possible to recover that information unless the formating of the disk completely overwrites everything. | 03:40 |
| JJSmith260 | vocx; what software can I use to recover the pieces of data? | 03:40 |
| JJSmith260 | hmm | 03:40 |

| Flannel | PerryArmstrong: The update problems wouldn't affect/cause those errors. | 03:41 |
| oscurochu | glitsj16: Any other ideas? | 03:41 |
| PerryArmstrong | Flannel; no but ubuntu is running in low graphics mode and it asks me to update drivers | 03:42 |
| Level15 | eseven73: no, I am using luks for full HD encryption, but I need an extra layer of security for certain files so that they are encrypted even if the computer is on. | 03:42 |
| glitsj16 | oscurochu: i see, not familiar with chatzilla ... as for the sphere topic: try websearching for exact settings, compiz has so many i can't get my head around it (or ask in #compiz-fusion) | 03:42 |

| eseven73 | Level15, ok, well truecrypt is very nice even has a GUI, it encrypts just about everything really easily | 03:43 |
| jdu | lewench, goes to gnome still? | 03:43 |
| wat | im in windows so i dont know :) | 03:43 |
| lewench | jdu, yes | 03:43 |
| jdu | lewench, you can add a file .xsession in your home directory | 03:43 |
| jdu | lewench, in it you can put fluxbox | 03:44 |
| glitsj16 | oscurochu: probably some interfering setting in compiz, goodluck | 03:44 |
| jdu | lewench, and then select xclient script instead | 03:44 |

| dman | mike12: wrong place. try somewhere else. | 03:56 |
| vocx | Gobby, best bet is to download one theme, and try to get the feeling of it. Then make small changes. Reading the specs helps in this case. Elemental changes like picking a different picture my be more than enough. | 03:56 |

| ariqs | my program is terminating because of bad_alloc. It's going heavily into swap before it does it, but it runs out of memory way before it runs out of swap so I think it's a limitation set by the OS. I was told that limits.conf might have sometihng to do with it, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to edit it without some guidance. I see a max resident set size of 1 gig, but I don't see how that would be the limiting factor since that doesn't keep it from expand | 03:58 |

| jdu | space_cadet, with dd? | 04:01 |

| jdu | space_cadet, i'm not sure about that, what do you need it for? | 04:02 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: A desktop PC? | 04:02 |
| Pyles17 | usr13: laptop | 04:02 |
| space_cadet | to make a usb flash disk a 98 boot disk. | 04:02 |
| jdu | jdu, obviously | 04:03 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: A pcmcia card? | 04:03 |
| Gobby | vocx: If i download a theme. Can i simply change the background picture? | 04:03 |
| vocx | ariqs, I think I remember something along the lines, but I'm not sure. If you post the code to other programmers they may tell you in a minute what's wrong. | 04:03 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: or built in? | 04:03 |
| Huufarted | space_cadet: what purpose would a 98 boot disk serve? No NTFS support, no Ext2/3 support, etc. | 04:03 |
| FARIO_COW | MALANG | 04:03 |
| Pyles17 | usr13: built in | 04:03 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, not needed. | 04:03 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: Is there a keyboard sequence to toggle it on and off? | 04:03 |
| vocx | Gobby, probably yes, as long as it is the same resolution and has the same name. | 04:03 |
| Huufarted | space_cadet: then you're asking in the wrong channel as this is the support channel for Ubuntu | 04:03 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, no | 04:04 |
| soluxione | #soluxione | 04:04 |
| Huufarted | space_cadet: yes | 04:04 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, if you were to read my question. | 04:04 |
| ariqs | vocx: it's not an issue of a memory leak or anything. I'm dealing with a lot of data. The data simply isn't "fitting" | 04:04 |
| FARIO_COW | HI.................................................. | 04:04 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, you would understand the problem | 04:04 |
| _mnemonic76 | There is nothing listed in the Applications menu on my 8.04 desktop, however the Places and System menus are ok... how can I fix this? | 04:04 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: Or just some button you push to turn it on? | 04:04 |
| Gobby | vocx: Awesome, thanks for all your help. It will be sweet if i get the right setup i want :) | 04:04 |
| Pyles17 | usr13: yes, and it's on. i just turned it off to see if it would work | 04:04 |
| ariqs | which is why, if anything, it's an OS question :) | 04:04 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, so please stop flaming me | 04:04 |
| Pyles17 | usr13: it's a keyboard sequence | 04:04 |
| Huufarted | space_cadet: I understand the question. You want to take a .ima/img floppy image and make it bootable on a USB device and that is off topic in relation to Ubuntu. | 04:04 |
| ariqs | if I can't fix it by changing a limit, I'll have to get messy and write to files | 04:04 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, really. | 04:05 |
| Jay555 | Is there any reason that i should actually install Ubuntu? Or just run it off the cd??? | 04:05 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: So you just toggeled it off and back on again just now? | 04:05 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, because I thought i wanted to do this from within linux | 04:05 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, now that changes everything. | 04:05 |
| dman | Jay555: It is a lot faster installed? Easy persistent data? | 04:05 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, so please, stop flaming | 04:05 |
| durt | Jay555, It'll be faster off an HD | 04:05 |
| Jay555 | ok | 04:05 |
| Huufarted | space_cadet: changes nothing. That is off topic. Please ask that in #ubuntu-offtopic | 04:05 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, no it's not. | 04:05 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: Try the keyboard sequence, wait a few seconds and do iwconfig again. | 04:06 |
| Jay555 | well im having a world of problems with installing so... the other option looks good, | 04:06 |
| FARIO_COW | HI....................... | 04:06 |
| omniter | hello. does anyone know why my monitor's refresh rate is limited to 50? | 04:06 |
| omniter | in windows i had up to 85 | 04:06 |
| Huufarted | Jay555: what problems are you having? | 04:06 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, the point is, it does not matter what I want to do with the disk... the point is I want to extract an IMA to a usb drive from within linux | 04:06 |
| durt | Jay555, Try the alternate install Cd. | 04:06 |
| vocx | ariqs, you may think that your code is right but then you may be forgetting something. Seriously, post the code. | 04:06 |
| Jay555 | well. | 04:06 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: May even need to do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 04:06 |
| Pyles17 | usr13: toggled it off in case it was backwards :-) just turned it on again | 04:06 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, so please again, stop flaming | 04:06 |
| jdu | space_cadet, created channel called #bootdisk | 04:06 |
| Huufarted | space_cadet: That is not an #ubuntu question, just ask asking questions about Compiz and usage for it are off topic | 04:06 |
| smacfarl_ | so if I have an intel Q9550 which iso build do i use? | 04:06 |
| Jay555 | well when i get to step 3 of installation and i choose "guided - use largest continuous free space" after shrinking my vista volume | 04:07 |
| space_cadet | Huufarted, so asking how to extract an IMG file to a usb disk in ubuntu is not ubuntu related? | 04:07 |
| Jay555 | it says in the preview that after ubuntu will be 100% | 04:07 |
| ariqs | vocx: I know it's not the code, persay, as it works fine when I use less data. The fact is, the data isn't fitting due to some limitation. Either OS or something inherent in the compiler | 04:07 |
| dreamy | can anyone help me with this error : "no monitor supporting ddc/ci available " ( This was when i wanted to run gddccontrol) | 04:07 |
| usr13 | Pyles17: Ok, well have someone else pick up on this, sleep time is here (for me). | 04:07 |
| Huufarted | Jay555: are you sure it's not just saying 100% of the free space instead of 100% of ALL of the space? | 04:07 |
| smacfarl_ | in other words why os there only an amd64 build and not an intel 64 build. Probaly a stupid question but i'm asking anyway | 04:07 |
| dreamy | i just want to inscrease brigthnesss | 04:08 |
| Jay555 | Huufarted: idk, but i don't want to take the chance! | 04:08 |
| Huufarted | smacfarl_: There is no Intel64. AMD owns the 64 bit architecture, even on Intel chips | 04:08 |
| johni | smacfarl_, google will definitely answer that question for you | 04:08 |
| mattgyver83 | When i view a folder on my network (which I have co-owner privelages for) I cannot add new folders through nautilus however I may copy/move files over. Anybody know why? | 04:08 |
| delfick | hi, does anyone know how to cap the memory usage of a program ? so if it reaches a certain limit it is automatically killed before the computer has to be hard reset (again :p) ?? :) | 04:08 |
| Huufarted | Jay555: I see what you mean. Jay555 you may want to burn a gparted live CD to adjust the partitions if you don't want to take that chance. | 04:08 |
| rfsalder | Hello all! I'm looking for some help setting up ubuntu repositories using apt-move and apt-mirror. Is this the right forum to ask? | 04:08 |
| Jay555 | details? | 04:08 |
| smacfarl_ | Huufarted: so I want to download the amd64 build then for my new quad core machine? | 04:09 |
| Pyles17 | usr13: thanks | 04:09 |
| Huufarted | smacfarl_: if you want to run 64 bit, that is correct | 04:09 |
| Huufarted | smacfarl_: Just ask Intel owns the x86 architecture, AMD owns the 64 bit half of that. | 04:09 |
| vocx | ariqs, from experience, I've seen memory leaks, where one process takes absolutely all my free space and swap. So that's all I can say. But my memory is 2.5 GB total. Perhaps, as you say, the limit is larger than that. | 04:10 |
| Huufarted | smacfarl_: and if you want to use more than 3.75 GB of RAM, then I'd recommend 64-bit. | 04:10 |
| btw0rm | rfsalder: it's a community not a forum lol | 04:10 |
| meoblast001 | 6 hours down the drain | 04:10 |

| hazard | Anyone happen to have any suggestions for installing to a PS3 without a CD? I thought I saw a link yesterday about doing it from USB, but I can't find it now. | 04:11 |
| Jay555 | huufarted: "you may want to burn a gparted live CD" whatd u mean by that? | 04:11 |
| meoblast001 | mattgyver83: obex | 04:11 |
| meoblast001 | mattgyver83: using blueman | 04:12 |
| mattgyver83 | Jay555, google Gparted Live CD' you can just burn the ISO to disc and run it at boot | 04:12 |
| Huufarted | Jay555: gparted is a program similar to Partition Magic in Windows. It allows you to resize and move partitions and does an incredible job of it. | 04:12 |
| smacfarl_ | huufarted: case in point OCZ SSD drives. Need to update the firmware before I align the partition. | 04:12 |
| Jay555 | ok | 04:12 |
| tim_ | is there anyway that I could get some help on setting up a vpn client please | 04:12 |
| vocx | smacfarl_, the names intel x86 or amd64 are just a convention. Basically AMD extended the intel architecture to 64 bit first, so they got the name first. | 04:12 |
| Jay555 | how do i edit my BIOS, like when do i get to the step to change it | 04:13 |
| mattgyver83 | meo, i think i still have a link for the guide i used, let me check that for you | 04:13 |
| Pyles17 | does anyone know why an intel 3945 wireless card, which works in windows and the driver comes with Ubuntu install, wouldn't work? lshw -C network says "network UNCLAIMED" | 04:13 |
| ariqs | vocx: I only have 1 gig of real physical memory, however, I increased my swap to 3 gigs, and I get bad_alloc at around 2.5gigs total | 04:13 |
| Huufarted | Jay555: it runs on a live CD, just like the Ubuntu installation CDs. It gives you a very good graphical representation of what it's going to do BEFORE it actually does it so you will know for sure what will be moved, resized, or removed before it's written to disk. | 04:13 |
| Huufarted | smacfarl_: I'm sorry but I'm not going to obe much help with updating the firmware. :( I apologize. | 04:13 |
| onats | has anyone here used opengeu/geubuntu? | 04:13 |

| vocx | Joeseph, as a matter of fact "a brown screen but nothing happens" is exactly a bug, that may be caused by video drivers | 04:19 |
| Joeseph | vocx: Oh, okay... I'll search for the solution.... It would be nice if you could point me to one also. | 04:20 |

Then, the other ubuntu boxes on my network would update from the "production" repository. | 04:21 |

| big_chill | anyone knows unetbootin - can i use it to boot an alternate cd? | 04:22 |
| vocx | Joeseph, the solution depends of course on the drivers, if that is the case. I could suggest you use "vesa". For that you'need to modify /etc/X11/xorg.conf, etcetera... there could be different things. | 04:22 |
| Joeseph | vocx: I'm in the grub menu. How do you get to the "single user" mode? | 04:22 |
| rfsalder | This would give me a way to test updates before I deploy them. | 04:22 |

| ariqs | vocx: "The 2GB memory limit is imposed by the kernel-- 2.4 kernels on 32-bit systems used a 2G/2G virtual memory boundry between kernel memory and process memory. I believe that Windows uses a similar split, but I may be mistaken." | 04:31 |
| SR71-Blackbird | Order deny,allow \n Deny from all \n Allow from <IP> doesn't seem to work | 04:31 |
| mattgyver83 | Ubuntu hates me too, it wont let my wifi-card tether my phone internet connection ';\ | 04:31 |
| Joeseph | ha! okay. Now I have a terminal. | 04:31 |
| lstarnes | SR71-Blackbird: try making order, deny, and allow lowercase | 04:31 |
| vocx | ariqs, aaah, yes, I believe I read something like that too. That's what I'm talking about. | 04:32 |
| YixilTesiphon | I can't get out of a terminal | 04:32 |
| SR71-Blackbird | lstarnes, all of them? | 04:32 |
| YixilTesiphon | doing an install and it just gives me "ubuntu@ubuntu:~$" | 04:32 |
| lstarnes | SR71-Blackbird: yes | 04:32 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | tea_ovedose: that must be some very tough codec then. So far vlc played everything ive thrown at it for me. The extension .asf usually only defines the multiplexing, not the codec | 04:33 |
| Xeron | can anyone tell me hwy when i load supertux its animation is super slow motion? also with my zsnes games :( | 04:33 |
| SR71-Blackbird | lstarnes, still denied | 04:33 |
| Xeron | my firstperson shooter game works fine tho | 04:33 |
| vocx | Xeron, you don't have hardware acceleration? | 04:33 |
| jdu | Xeron, I found the newest version of supertux to be slow | 04:33 |
| Xeron | i dunno lol i play fps fine tho | 04:33 |
| Xeron | ok how do i fix it ? | 04:33 |
| mattgyver83 | meoblast001, is gnome-obex-server what your using? (dont know if you caught my earlier post) | 04:34 |
| SR71-Blackbird | lstarnes, here's the thing, if I try it's name xx.example.com i get access, but if I use www I don't | 04:34 |
| meoblast001 | mattgyver83: i think so | 04:34 |
| tea_ovedose | d_1nev1tab1e: probably it's because I am watching it via stream | 04:34 |
| jdu | Xeron, perhaps try the supertux wiki | 04:34 |
| Xeron | ok | 04:34 |
| shutterbc | Question about apt-get... does the following message mean that I should try to *downgrade* my installed java version? | 04:34 |
| Xeron | thanks anyway guys | 04:34 |

| lstarnes | SR71-Blackbird: I'm not sure what would be causing that. Try asking in #apache | 04:34 |
| mattgyver83 | meoblast001, do you have an icon in the top-right of the task bar with a triangle with signals coming out of it? | 04:34 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | tea_ovedose: what kind of stream? | 04:35 |
| meoblast001 | mattgyver83: now i do.... and it still doesnt work | 04:35 |
| mattgyver83 | meoblast, okay so were using the same thing (not sure if theres any other version). Technically if thats up, you can pair the device. Then your good for a transfer. | 04:35 |
| mattgyver83 | If you dont have the icon up you cant. | 04:35 |
| mattgyver83 | Is the error on your phone, or on your computer? | 04:36 |
| vocx | Joeseph, is that intel? Mmm. Check ubuntuforums.org for similar reports on your problem. | 04:36 |

| PCTeacher012 | I need help | 04:42 |

| PCTeacher012 | i need help xD | 04:43 |
| sebsebseb | PCTeacher012: with? | 04:43 |
| stevr1it | n8tuser, i think grub is looking for a different partition now | 04:43 |
| space_cadet | lighttitan, you might want to throw a sudo at the beginning of that | 04:43 |
| Mr_Orange | Where can I get vlc 0.9.9? I think it is supposed to be in the repos, but it's not there for me | 04:43 |
| lighttitan | k | 04:43 |
| stevr1it | i need to reconfigure it | 04:43 |
| PCTeacher012 | My computer has NO sound now, it is not playing System sounds, Music, or youtube video sounds | 04:43 |
| PCTeacher012 | what do i need to do? | 04:43 |

| sebsebseb | PCTeacher012: which Ubuntu? | 04:44 |
| PCTeacher012 | 8.10 | 04:44 |
| Mr_Orange | PCTeacher012: if you are using alsa, try "sudo alsa force-reload" | 04:44 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: did you ever have sound or did it just crash? | 04:44 |
| n8tuser | stevr1it-> when you re-installed did you try to tell ubuntu to reformat the partition where / resides? if not, you must, so re-install correctly | 04:44 |
| sebsebseb | PCTeacher012: ok good you didn't get the other one | 04:44 |
| vocx | stevr1it, you can "update-grub" or optionally reinstall it with "grub-install" | 04:44 |
| PCTeacher012 | I had sound when i first installed it | 04:44 |
| sebsebseb | !sound | PCTeacher012 | 04:44 |
| ubottu | PCTeacher012: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| vocx | stevr1it, those commands take parameters, so you need to read the manual. To reinstall it is something like "sudo grub-install (hd0) --root-directory=/" | 04:45 |

| sebsebseb | PCTeacher012: so your going to learn Ubuntu, and then teach people Ubuntu? | 04:45 |

| Joeseph | So I checked my install cd cause I thought it looked scratched..... It says it's fine, so I go ahead and boot. but... IT can't read the disk! So it was an even longer waste of time in something that was supposed to save time. anger. | 05:05 |
| stevr1it | vocx it says error in syntax ( | 05:05 |
| space_cadet | Joeseph, does it have IO errors? | 05:05 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: this thing should support MP3 right? | 05:05 |
| Joeseph | space_cadet: yes | 05:06 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, not for ring tones | 05:06 |
| vocx | stevr1it, try without the parentheses. hd0 not (hd0) | 05:06 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: oh | 05:06 |
| space_cadet | Joeseph, try burning at 4x or slower | 05:06 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, it's sprint | 05:06 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: i cant get mine to play from the file browser | 05:06 |
| YixilTesiphon | so when I type "sudo ed xorg.conf" in terminal it just says "1053", any idea why that would be? | 05:06 |

| space_cadet | meoblast001, remember what I was telling about 3gpp ? | 05:07 |
| vocx | YixilTesiphon, if you want and editor use "nano" or "vim" | 05:07 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, that's what mine uses for ring tones. | 05:07 |
| === error404notfoun3 is now known as error404notfound | ||
| Joeseph | space_cadet: My point was that I ran the "check cd for defects" so It wouldn't crash in the middle of booting...... which it did. | 05:07 |
| YixilTesiphon | ah thanks vocx | 05:07 |
| space_cadet | Joeseph, did you burn faster than 4x? | 05:07 |
| Joeseph | space_cadet: This cd was made a while ago... I don't know. | 05:08 |
| vocx | Sir_Brizz, what Monitor and what card? | 05:08 |
| Swede | space_cadet: Well, I don't know if it does. How do I know if the computer can use network boot? | 05:08 |
| Swede | space_cadet: Or PXE, I mean. | 05:08 |
| Sir_Brizz | it's a 17" generic brand CRT on an nVidia 8800GTs | 05:08 |

| space_cadet | Joeseph, do you have another blank? | 05:09 |
| Swede | space_cadet: Ok, I will, thanks. | 05:09 |
| YixilTesiphon | so if xorg.conf contains nothing but things like "Generic Monitor", that means that it hasn't recognized any of my hardware? | 05:09 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: should i put it in the folder Music/ | 05:10 |
| Joeseph | space_cadet: Yeah.... I'm downloading a copy of the iso right now...... I suppose It'll be done 24 minutes.... If firefox is to be believed. | 05:10 |

| stevr1it | media | 05:10 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, for music, sure... | 05:10 |
| vocx | Sir_Brizz, you can add another resolution in some entry of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and maybe it is detected correctly, that's what I did with my setup. | 05:10 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, for ringtones, you need to have your phone create a dcim folder. | 05:10 |
| Frijolie | or a shared directory where my user account can drop files for a remote user account to be able to access | 05:10 |
| meoblast001 | my phone locked up | 05:11 |
| stevr1it | vocx sorry, in /media/ i have only a direcotry called disk, can i mount grub on it? | 05:11 |
| Sir_Brizz | vocx: I'll give it a try, thanks | 05:11 |
| space_cadet | Joeseph, just make sure to burn at =<4x | 05:11 |

| meoblast001 | space_cadet: and the music player can't find the filetofish.mp3 | 05:11 |
| vocx | stevr1it, you don't "mount grub" you mount the root directory | 05:11 |
| Joeseph | Out of curiosity.... has anyone else been using compiz fuzion and while moving a window around randomly have it disappear? I did that today and noticed I could still see it if I zoomed out to the desktop cube... but I couldn't grab the window. | 05:11 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, meoblast001 yes in that folder, and to be a ringtone, it must follow a specific naming convention. | 05:12 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, mine is something like v_000007.3g2 | 05:12 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: oh yay... whats that? | 05:12 |
| vocx | Joeseph, found the solution to the video problem? | 05:12 |
| stevr1it | the cd have mounted the root on /media/ disk and now? | 05:12 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: what formats are acceptable | 05:12 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, take a vid, and see what the filename turns out to be. | 05:12 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Joeseph: do u have wobbly windows on? I used to get things like that with wobbly windows. compix --replace should get ur window back | 05:13 |

| amikrop | Is there an /etc/apt/apt.conf? | 05:13 |
| Joeseph | d_1nev1tab1e: Thanks for the advice. | 05:13 |

| vocx | stevr1it, then run something like "sudo grub-install hd0 --root-directory=/media/disk" | 05:13 |
| amikrop | Is it somewhere, though? | 05:13 |

| space_cadet | meoblast001, you also should make it a video file with at least a picture in it. | 05:14 |
| sebsebseb | !permissions | Frijolie | 05:14 |
| Joeseph | d_1nev1tab1e: That command didn't work for me though.... | 05:14 |
| ubottu | Frijolie: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 05:14 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, that's what a 3g2 is. | 05:14 |
| stevr1it | only one: it is not a XFS filesystem | 05:15 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: so how is a 3g2 a rngtone? | 05:15 |
| vocx | Joeseph, do you have the bug report you mentioned | 05:15 |
| Frijolie | sebsebseb, I know what they are and how they can be manipulated but I need some help from a sys admin point-of-view | 05:15 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, it's soo much easier in windows, just open with quicktime, add a picture, then export as mp4, bring it to my converter, and bam 3g2 | 05:15 |
| stevr1it | and tells me to check the /grub/device/map | 05:15 |
| sebsebseb | Frijolie: what are you trying to do? | 05:15 |
| Frijolie | sebsebseb, per se | 05:15 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, it's a video ringtone | 05:15 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: how do i make a non video rington? | 05:15 |
| stevr1it | i try to restart | 05:15 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, take a video, and see if you can assign it as a ringtone | 05:15 |
| meoblast001 | space_cadet: can i just pop a MID in there? | 05:15 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Joeseph: its supposed to restart compiz, so if the window still is gone it might not be a compiz problem. | 05:16 |
| Frijolie | sebsebseb, ok, I've recently set up an ftp server which is allowing connections via a user account 'userftp' | 05:16 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, maybe, that I haven't tried | 05:16 |
| meoblast001 | no | 05:16 |
| space_cadet | meoblast001, but you gotta remember, it' | 05:16 |
| Frijolie | sebsebseb, userftp's primary group is userftp | 05:16 |
| meoblast001 | doesnt come up as ringtone | 05:16 |
| space_cadet | s sprint meoblast001 | 05:16 |
| sebsebseb | Frijolie: ok I haven't done my own ftpserver before, anyway I guess your issue isn't really distro specific and so you can try this general channel #linux | 05:16 |
| Joeseph | vocx: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/278431 | 05:16 |

| Joeseph | d_1nev1tab1e: Alright.... thanks. | 05:16 |
| Frijolie | sebsebseb, uh, ok I guess that's right... | 05:16 |

| Spence__ | yess i do | 05:18 |
| space_cadet | Swede, mind you, my experience with PXE was from windows, to windows. | 05:19 |
| vocx | stevr1it, maybe it cannot boot from the second disk, you need to install it in sda1. I'm still unsure of your setup. You should explain how many disks you have, are they IDE or SATA, what OSes they have, etc. | 05:19 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Spence__: enable the propietary drivers and use the nvidia config tool | 05:19 |
| Nephilus | aren't kde and gnome, xubuntu etc. called window managers? | 05:19 |
| sebsebseb | Nephilus: KDE and Gnome are desktop environments and XFCE is a window manager | 05:19 |
| Spence__ | oh yeah, i forgot to mention, i'm new to Ubuntu, so idk how to do much | 05:19 |
| stevr1it | vocx i ahve 4 hardisks, and only one sata with controller, it occupied sda1 and the root is on sdb1 | 05:20 |

| sebsebseb | Nephilus: if it's just a GUI it's a WM, if it's a GUI and apps it's a DE | 05:20 |
| space_cadet | Swede, legacy device means really old hardware. | 05:20 |
| stevr1it | the 3 partions are on one hardisk, | 05:20 |

| stevr1it | vocx, sdb is hosting sdb1 root, sdb2 home sdb3 swap | 05:21 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Spence__: go to system->administration ->hardware drivers | 05:21 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Spence__: make sure your recommended nvidia drivers are enabled | 05:22 |

| Roasted | Can somebody fill me in on how linux handles hard drive identification? I'm using FOG and Gparted in this instance. When I write a file system on a blank drive using GParted, which the hard drive is an IDE drive, GParted reads the drive as /dev/hda, yet when I try to clone it using FOG (linux based) it finds it as /dev/sdb... so when I try to run FOG on a drive that has the GParted file systems on it, it errors out. I dont understand | 05:55 |
| Roasted | why FOG, being linux based, sees it as sdb when GParted finds it as hda | 05:55 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: just warnings, i guess they are meaningless. also they happen before alsa got terminated. And since alsa crashed anyways its not a surprise if it had errors | 05:55 |

| vocx | Briandb1222, I figured. Most S3 integrated graphics card are in low-end laptops. | 05:56 |
| PCTeacher012 | Rythmbox wont open | 05:56 |
| Kimi | i need something alternate MULTISIM .. i tried from !quivalents and didnt satisfy me like Multisim.... does anyone know any excat and equal alternate ? | 05:56 |
| Flannel | Roasted: Any recent Ubuntu version shouldn't give you a hd* but should give you a sd* name. | 05:56 |
| PCTeacher012 | im using Exaile right now | 05:56 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: try killall rhythmbox | 05:56 |
| Briandb1222 | vocx: yeah. I'm trying to get a new one. But as we all know, that takes some time. :P. | 05:57 |
| Roasted | Flannel - so you're saying FOG is correct while GParted is naming the drives via an old standard? Cause I thought IDE = HDA and SATA = SDB. | 05:57 |
| btw0rm | Flannel: jante does that but it's not well developed yet | 05:57 |
| Briandb1222 | It's a Gateway | 05:57 |
| Flannel | Kimi: What part of Multisim do you use? | 05:57 |
| Flannel | btw0rm: What? | 05:57 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_...: "No process killed" | 05:57 |
| _jonesy_ | no one? Is Ubuntu just completely retarded when it comes to Gigabit networking | 05:57 |
| PCTeacher012 | Jonsey | 05:57 |
| PCTeacher012 | no | 05:57 |
| vocx | Kimi, I don't think you'll find it. Specialist software mostly only exist on windows. | 05:57 |
| Tugle | Briandb1222: try what is listed in this forum post, the xorg.conf on the second page might help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=76037 | 05:58 |
| PCTeacher012 | Are you transfering from windows Josey? | 05:58 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | _jonesy_: is ur mac fast when communicating with other computers? | 05:58 |
| Flannel | Roasted: No. They could/are both correct. hd* are PATA drives, sd* are SATA. Recent Linux versions have merged everything into sd*, and on some hardware IDE comes first, others IDE comes second. | 05:58 |
| Kimi | Flannel, i use and or not nor nand xor and all basics ..... and i need to convert boolen expression to truth table , truth table to circuit , circuit to expression , circuit to truth table and all such | 05:58 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n...: "rythmbox: no process killed" | 05:58 |
| PCTeacher012 | ill try opening again | 05:58 |
| PCTeacher012 | still not opening | 05:58 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: try opening it in terminal, check for errors | 05:59 |
| Flannel | Roasted: So, under the old style, you have sda and hda, and then under the new one, one of those is sda and the other is sdb. Obviously in this case, sda -> sda and hda -> sdb | 05:59 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay, thnx, trying now | 05:59 |

| Roasted | SDA, SDB, SDC, SDD... my 4 SATA drives | 06:00 |

| Flannel | Roasted: ok. And whats the question then? | 06:00 |
| Roasted | SDA has Vista/Intrepid, the other 3 are network backup drives. | 06:00 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: open an terminal, type rhythmbox and see what happens | 06:01 |
| PCTeacher012 | kk | 06:01 |
| Briandb1222 | Tugle: Checking it out now, thanks. | 06:01 |
| PCTeacher012 | as root? | 06:01 |
| Kimi | Flannel, is that possible software in ubuntu for multisim ? | 06:01 |
| Roasted | Flannel - I thought you were insinuating that in the "new age" naming scheme with Linux that SDB was the "new age" name for HDA drives... aka PATA drives... | 06:01 |
| _jonesy_ | d_1nev1tab1e: the only restricted drivers it seems to find are for the Nvidia card that is in the box. | 06:01 |
| Roasted | whcih is why I got confused considering I have an SDB drive which is certainly not PATA | 06:01 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: no just as ur standard user | 06:01 |
| PCTeacher012 | ill send a pastebin | 06:01 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n...:http://paste.ubuntu.com/144624/ | 06:02 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | _jonesy_: well u either are having driver issues or maybe its a return of ipv6 problems. I suggest googling it | 06:02 |
| PCTeacher012 | that is all it does | 06:02 |
| Kimi | does anyone know about alternate to multisim ??? | 06:02 |
| Flannel | Roasted: Yes. hd* won't appear on newer kernels, they've got a sata emulation layer in there. | 06:02 |
| Kimi | I tried !equivalents too | 06:02 |
| Flannel | Roasted: Now everything is sd* | 06:02 |
| Roasted | Flannel - can it be assumed that if I get a newer version of GParted that it too would recognize the hda as sd*? | 06:03 |
| PCTeacher012 | woah! | 06:03 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: running as root game me some output! LOL | 06:03 |
| Flannel | Roasted: Newer kernel, yeah. | 06:03 |
| Kimi | bye :( | 06:03 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: killall python | 06:03 |
| _jonesy_ | d_1nev1tab1e: I've been googling this issue for 2 days. If I swap my server back over to windows, which I don't want to do, I don't have this issue at all | 06:03 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | _jonesy_: it could be anything to be honest, u can try blacklisting ipv6, but i would be surprised if that worked | 06:05 |
| PCTeacher012 | should i run "killall python" as root? | 06:05 |
| raVen | can some1 help me how to install gtk2::TrayIcon and Crypt::SSLeay | 06:05 |
| vocx | Sagaci, have you installed an icons theme? Maybe it's broken? | 06:05 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: no | 06:05 |
| PCTeacher012 | since it did nothing as user (im not in admin account) | 06:05 |
| PCTeacher012 | because rhythmbox is still not coming up | 06:06 |
| raVen | can some1 help me how to install gtk2::TrayIcon and Crypt::SSLeay | 06:06 |
| PCTeacher012 | I see in the Menu app (shows all apps open) something open for a split second | 06:07 |
| lighttitan | how do I disable the proprietary hardware tool? | 06:07 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: its very unusual for rhythmbox to behave this way, try logging out and in again. I think this error wont be easily reproducible | 06:07 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay d_1n... trying logging out now | 06:07 |

| raVen | guys..can you help me install crypt::ssleay and gtk2::trayicon | 06:10 |
| Briandb1222 | Tugle: I've tried what the poster did. However, When I tried wget ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/kudos/hoary/via_drv.o.bz2, it timed out on me. Tried it twice to no avail. Any other way I can retrieve the download? | 06:10 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: you had it running while restarting the sound driver, it must have crashed something | 06:10 |
| Tugle | Briandb1222: let me check | 06:11 |
| PCTeacher012 | Yea, i did, lol, well, what is the code again so i can save as file? (Is there something like .bat for ubuntu 8.1) | 06:11 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: i suggestu create a launcher, right click desktop and follow the gui, its sudo alsa force-reload | 06:12 |
| Briandb1222 | Tugle: Roger | 06:12 |
| raVen | guys..can you help me install crypt::ssleay and gtk2::trayicon | 06:12 |
| vocx | PCTeacher012, you can save any commands as shell scripts, which you can execute. Typically they end with .sh | 06:12 |

| raVen | guys..can you help me install crypt::ssleay and gtk2::trayicon | 06:13 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay, when/if it messes up again, ill run it. One more question. My bro's account (one i am on for troubleshooting) is not administrator. So when i did sudo *** the first time, it said "Member *** is not a member of the sudo family" or something along the lines of that | 06:13 |
| vocx | vavoysh, trying to understand your question. What you need is to partition your current free space. Use the program called gparted. | 06:13 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: actually it should be gksudo for the launcher and not sudo, sorry | 06:14 |
| raVen | vocx: hey...are u familiar with ssleay and trayicon | 06:14 |
| vavoysh | vocx, i want to load it into an already existing partition | 06:14 |
| vocx | raVen, nope | 06:14 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay, i did this. | 06:15 |
| PCTeacher012 | New Document --> Text File --> sudo alsa force-reload --> Restart Sound.sh | 06:15 |
| PCTeacher012 | will that work? | 06:15 |
| raVen | vocx: ok thanks | 06:15 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: you can open a shell in ur account by using su username (atleast that how i remember it) | 06:15 |
| raVen | guys..can you help me install crypt::ssleay and gtk2::trayicon | 06:15 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay, so do this? | 06:15 |
| PCTeacher012 | Su (Enter Password) also force-reload? | 06:15 |

| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: What would the exact code be? | 06:16 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: ehm lets keep one thing after the other, if you are happy with a launcher, similar to shortcut in windows right click desktop, click create launcher | 06:16 |
| raVen | guys..can you help me install crypt::ssleay and gtk2::trayicon | 06:16 |
| PCTeacher012 | o, i ddint see that xD | 06:16 |

| raVen | then? | 06:18 |
| PCTeacher012 | he is regular user, not admin, so how could i make it work for him d_1n? | 06:18 |
| vocx | PCTeacher012, the shell script is to be run from the terminal, like "sh MyScript.sh" but a launcher does that in a graphical way. So it's your choice. | 06:18 |
| raVen | Briandb1222: then what sir | 06:18 |
| PCTeacher012 | rather the gui way | 06:19 |
| vocx | vavoysh, what kind of partition is that? Is it NTFS? Who is the owner, what is the group? | 06:19 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: the only possibility is see is that eitehr u leave him the password in clear text, or you give him priviledges to control alsa, which will also be a security issue | 06:19 |
| Briandb1222 | raVen: It depends. Do you already have it installed? | 06:19 |
| Briandb1222 | Tugle: I tried once, though I don't think I did it correctly...trying again. | 06:19 |
| raVen | Briandb1222: my problem is, i dont know how to install both of them..coz im planning to install check gmail | 06:20 |

| PCTeacher012 | okay, d_1n so how can i run it as me from his account? is it even possible? | 06:21 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: it is possible but ur brother could easily retrieve ur password as you would need to store it as clear text | 06:22 |
| vocx | mattgyver83, the link is a file itself. But some applications treat is as a regular file, and others always redirect to the "real" file. So having the size of the link depends on what program, are you using nautilus, or the terminal? | 06:22 |
| PCTeacher012 | or he could call me in? but can it run from his account without logging off? | 06:22 |
| flaco | I got a 3G modem running in linux, I got internet connection but the IP Address is 10.135.5.168 wich is not an internet IP, so... how can I connect other computer (with "normal" internet connection) to the 3G connected computer? | 06:22 |
| mattgyver83 | vocx, nautilus. | 06:22 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: yes you can | 06:23 |

| psywiped | artscience_ ask the people in the #gentoo forum they for sure have done that | 06:23 |
| mattgyver83 | vocx, i have a directory i wanted to break down by alphabet and then have a folder with them all in a list so i used links. I just want to make sure i didnt eat up the same amount of space. | 06:23 |
| Briandb1222 | Tugle: thanks. My resolution is default set at 1600x1200. I lower it where it should be and I get lines. Also, info in xorg.conf is not there. I think that it isn't reading my driver, was my issue | 06:23 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: for that u need to open a terminal and type su PCTeacher012 and then do the usual step | 06:23 |
| artscience_ | thanks psywiped | 06:23 |

| Briandb1222 | checkgmail* | 06:24 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: not that i know off, but there is one other option | 06:24 |
| PCTeacher012 | and that is? | 06:24 |
| vocx | mattgyver83, oh no. I believe links are only really small files, like 4 bytes or so. | 06:24 |
| psywiped | flaco that is a normal ip | 06:24 |
| doubleleecoco | ..hi | 06:24 |
| mattgyver83 | vocx thanks, now if i could just figure out a way to quickly remove all the 'Link to' in the file name... ;) | 06:24 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: you can give your brother full access to audio devices. That is potentially a security issue as your brother would effectively have full admin rights to handle audio | 06:25 |
| flaco | psywiped, normal?? the 10.x.x.x are for locals networks not for internet | 06:25 |
| doubleleecoco | does anyone interesting in lacoste polo shirt? | 06:25 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: he will only be limited to audio tho | 06:25 |
| vavoysh | vocx, sorry, another question: whats the terminal command for copy paste? | 06:25 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay, can i chmod the file? or no? and i think that is good enough :) He is not smart with computers | 06:25 |
| psywiped | flaco get verizon then | 06:25 |
| vocx | mattgyver83, how did you create them? You can mass-rename using "rename" and basic knowledge of regular expressions. | 06:25 |
| vocx | vavoysh, "cp something somewhere" | 06:26 |
| PCTeacher012 | so how do i change that from his account? in terminal do " su cody (password)" then go to users while having it open? | 06:26 |
| mattgyver83 | vocx, ive just created them in nautilus. Just a few though, i didnt do all of them yet. | 06:26 |

| MrPockets | any other ideas? | 06:28 |
| misteralexander | PCTeacher012: "ALSO" or "ALSA" | 06:28 |

| MrPockets | Briandb1222, like i said, i'm sure if i bounced the box it'd be fine. But i'm trying to avoid that | 06:30 |
| Spence_ | hey guys. if someone has patience for a noob(my first day on Ubuntu), i need help with installing unetbootin. | 06:31 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: did u do su PCTeacher012 before? if yes, try leaving sudo out | 06:31 |
| Briandb1222 | I don't suggest prying it | 06:31 |
| Spence_ | Ubuntu 8.10 | 06:31 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: and then press the unlock button | 06:32 |
| MrPockets | Spec, I'm assuming you've downloaded it? | 06:32 |
| Briandb1222 | MrPockets: I had a CD stuck in a stereo. I tried forcing it out with a pair of tweezers...now the CD player on it don't work anymore heh. | 06:32 |
| SoS11 | I have a QoS script...how do I make it auto-run as root after I connect to the internet (I'm using NetworkManager) ? | 06:32 |

| Spence_ | i'm not sure, me and Dreamglider been at it for an hour. error after error. this is the last one when i ran, "sudo apt-get install unetbootin | 06:33 |
| Spence_ | "... E: Couldn't find package unetbootin | 06:33 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: http://paste.ubuntu.com/144639/ | 06:33 |
| MrPockets | yeah, its not in the repos anymore | 06:33 |
| MrPockets | go to the website and download it for Ubuntu | 06:33 |
| mikere | Briandb1222: with PC's all you have to do is unfold a paper clip and push an end into the hole under the tray to emergency eject | 06:33 |

| Briandb1222 | MrPockets: that's odd. I never would think something like that would happen hehe. | 06:33 |
| Roasted | there isnt any way to see that in the same listing as ip, gateway, etc? Suddenly I'm missing a windows feature... never thought I'd say that | 06:33 |
| Spence_ | what website exactly? | 06:33 |
| mattgyver83 | vocx, your the best. Thanks for your help. | 06:34 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1 doing that now, imma probably have you walk me through allowing only audio administering lol, logging off unless u can tell me how to fix that problem? | 06:34 |
| psywiped | Roasted ifconfig -a | 06:34 |
| Briandb1222 | Mikere: I'm aware of that, but emergency holes are for emergencies only heh. Last resort ya know? | 06:34 |
| Spence_ | mr pockets, may i PM you? | 06:34 |
| vocx | mattgyver83, it is true. | 06:34 |
| Roasted | ifconfig -a isn't seeming like what I want.. | 06:34 |
| MrPockets | Spec, go ahead | 06:34 |
| psywiped | Roasted it is | 06:34 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: well this a one time configuration to allow ur brother to restart alsa himself without using sudo | 06:34 |
| psywiped | Roasted cant break anything so give it a shot | 06:35 |
| Roasted | I'm definitely looking at ifconfig -a right now, and I do not see the DNS servers listed that resolv.conf gave me. It most definitely is not what I was hoping for. | 06:35 |
| Briandb1222 | Tugle: Intrepid ibex, to be exact. | 06:35 |
| Roasted | we have a windows network at work with an e merging amount of linux machines, and ipconfig /all is a command I use all the time, and If ound I didnt know how to do the same simple command in ubuntu | 06:35 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1 yes, and i got it to work, i know i am not supposed to, but i ran users-admin as root, and am now in it as root, how to change bros thing to only allow audio administering? | 06:35 |
| psywiped | Roasted your gona make me google for the command arnt you | 06:35 |
| chetnick | Roasted: i can give you a custom script that will give you what you need, hit me on priv so i can paste the script | 06:35 |
| mikere | Roasted: can you ping by ip but not by domain name? | 06:35 |
| Roasted | I have been googling for the command | 06:35 |
| Roasted | the only answer I'm finding is ifconfig | 06:36 |
| ZeroByte | is there a place where I can get the monitor configurations used in displayconfig? autodetection can't find my monitor so I'm really limited in my screen res | 06:36 |
| Roasted | not anything for ifconfig "all" | 06:36 |
| btw0rm | how can i get a cloak without askine a staff for one? | 06:36 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: just go the properties of your brothers username | 06:37 |
| mikere | Roasted: man ifconfig tells us ifconfig -a is what you want | 06:37 |
| PCTeacher012 | i did, which checkbox do i click? | 06:37 |
| PCTeacher012 | @ d_1 | 06:37 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: then click user priviledges and check audio devices | 06:37 |
| Roasted | well, by typing ifconfig -a into terminal its not showing everything I want | 06:37 |
| btw0rm | any ideas? | 06:37 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1: use audio devices? | 06:37 |
| Roasted | I just found a post on ubuntu forums that kind of confirms something... that the true ipconfig /all doenst exist in ubuntu | 06:37 |
| Roasted | but more like it exists in two locations | 06:37 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: yes, that one | 06:37 |
| Roasted | ifconfig + cat /etc/resolv.conf | 06:37 |
| PCTeacher012 | already checked | 06:37 |
| Roasted | kinda lame :/ | 06:37 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: and he still cant restart alsa without using sudo? | 06:38 |
| psywiped | Roasted http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=837631 | 06:38 |

| misteralexander | PCTeacher012: Watched a bunch of YouTube videos & then tried to view an .AVI, no audio . . . did your little thing & it works GREAT! Thanks! | 06:39 |
| Roasted | which confirms what I just said, basically | 06:39 |
| JakeTwoZero | My ubuntu says my restricted drivers are in use, but they aren't. | 06:39 |

| PCTeacher012 | mister: Your welcome, i learned it from d_1n, so thank him too :p | 06:39 |

| psywiped | roasted has left the building | 06:41 |
| mikere | Roasted: or create an alias | 06:41 |
| Out_Cold | what is the difference between the server wifi and the desktop wifi installation? I have installed a vanilla DE and am having troubles with the wireless.. it's noted as wlan0 but i can't seem to get it to connect to the router | 06:41 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | does anyone know which group one has to be member of to be able to force restart alsa? | 06:41 |
| mikere | thanks, psywiped, I never read that stuff =) | 06:41 |
| PCTeacher012 | i think root. Me (as admin) can not run it, but when i did su and logged in, it allowed me to | 06:42 |
| chetnick | <Roasted> most of the time I'm sitting back looking at windows wondering "what | 06:42 |
| chetnick | were they thinking" but this is the first time I'm kinda surprised in | 06:42 |
| chetnick | a negative manner towards linux | 06:42 |
| psywiped | mikere i dont eather but i cant tab his name | 06:42 |
| chetnick | dont see the big deal there? | 06:42 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: yes root can do everything but there are several lower priviledged groups that can do some specific things without being able to do everything | 06:43 |
| mikere | psywiped: too bad - taking 10 seconds to create an alias for it and he'd be home free. | 06:43 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: I will test around with one | 06:43 |

| Out_Cold | any ideas on how to get my server wifi going without installine the gnome-desktop?? | 06:44 |
| psywiped | Out_Cold please just locate the server next to the router and use cat6 | 06:44 |
| vocx | steve29730, extremely old, please install a new version. 8.04 at least | 06:45 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: users-admin does not let one add a user to group, i need to look up how to do it | 06:45 |
| Flannel | Hi steve29730, how can we help you? | 06:45 |
| Out_Cold | psywiped i wanted an unbloated laptop.. for desktop use.. | 06:45 |
| PCTeacher012 | i have 30 types :( | 06:45 |
| steve29730 | Is there away to put a notification icon on the desktop somewhere that shows I am connected to a network? | 06:45 |
| psywiped | Out_Cold install gentoo? | 06:45 |
| === dragon` is now known as vocket | ||
| dli | steve29730, networkmanager | 06:46 |
| Flannel | steve29730: If you install a newer version (I recommend 8.04) you'll easily have that capability, yes. | 06:46 |
| btw0rm | hi | 06:46 |
| Out_Cold | psywiped let me rephrase.. i wanted an unbloated ubuntu laptop... | 06:46 |
| btw0rm | are there any staff members here that can cloak me? | 06:46 |
| safruhani | hi, in terminal i can't look in a folder, becouse its name has spaces trying to use same keywords like \/ , what can u recommend? | 06:46 |
| Flannel | btw0rm: This isn't the channel for that. | 06:46 |
| thecommutist | safruhani: enclose the folder name in " " | 06:47 |
| safruhani | ok | 06:47 |
| Out_Cold | safruhani use the tab key as you type and it will show you how to use the \'s | 06:47 |
| Flannel | safruhani: Use tab completion, it'll escape things for you. | 06:47 |
| psywiped | btw0rm a/s/l | 06:47 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: try sudo usermod -a audio <username> | 06:47 |

| psywiped | o come on it was a joke | 06:48 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: No changes | 06:48 |
| safruhani | thanks | 06:48 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: I think i'll just edit it where he can sudo, is that dangerous? | 06:48 |
| steve29730 | Is there a way to download 8.10 and upgrade? | 06:49 |
| btw0rm | are there any staff members here that can cloak me? | 06:49 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | well y dont u just let him be admin? | 06:49 |
| Out_Cold | so what am i missing that makes my server wifi not wantt to work?? without installing gnome-desktop and it's bloated paackages/ | 06:49 |
| Flannel | steve29730: Not from 5.04. From 5.04, you can (technically) upgrade to 5.10, and then you can upgrade from that to 6.06, and then from 6.06 you can upgrade to 8.04 | 06:49 |
| psywiped | btw0rm no | 06:49 |
| Flannel | btw0rm: Again, this isn't the proper channel for that. Please stop. | 06:49 |
| PCTeacher012 | well, i dont want him installing applications without me knowning, he knows nothing of apt-get | 06:50 |
| frimple | anyone alive? | 06:50 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: What are you trying to give the user access to? | 06:50 |
| psywiped | PCTeacher012 have you tried runing on the older kernel? | 06:50 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Flannel: alsa force-reload | 06:51 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: I am trying to allow brother who has a normal account to run also without sudo | 06:51 |
| Flannel | psywiped: That question doesn't even make sense. | 06:51 |
| psywiped | PCTeacher012 the newest kernel broke the sound on my x305 | 06:51 |

| frimple | ya! I have a question/problem regarding auto detection of SATA drive... ubuntu 8.10 server | 06:51 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: just modify your sudoers to allow him (or all users) to run that command | 06:51 |
| PCTeacher012 | psywiped it still works but i need to alsa force-reload every so often, and bro will need to | 06:51 |
| psywiped | PCTeacher012 audio is overated | 06:52 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: "gedit /etc/sudoers" then what? | 06:52 |
| Spence_ | when does ubuntu 9.04 come out? | 06:52 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: No. sudo visudo | 06:52 |
| PCTeacher012 | psywiped: I ened music xD | 06:52 |
| PCTeacher012 | visudo? | 06:52 |
| psywiped | Spence_ 22nd | 06:52 |
| Flannel | Spence_: End of april. Further questions can be asked in #ubuntu+1, thanks | 06:52 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: Yes. Always edit sudoers with visudo. | 06:52 |
| PCTeacher012 | ah... i see lol, okay, now what do i do? | 06:52 |
| frimple | I have a problem regarding auto detection of a SATA hard drive... ubuntu 8.10 server, can someone help? | 06:53 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | Flannel: i think PCTeacher012 doesnt want his brotehrs account to have access to sudo | 06:53 |
| SoS11 | !autostart | 06:53 |
| ubottu | 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 | 06:53 |
| Flannel | d_1nev1tab1e: "having access to sudo" doesn't mean full admin access. Sudo allows granulated access. We won't be adding him to the admin group. | 06:53 |
| Spence_ | now i have ubuntu 8.10, how will i have to upgrade. will i have to completely reinstall? | 06:53 |
| Spence_ | sorry, im a nub | 06:53 |
| Flannel | d_1nev1tab1e: that's one of the biggest strengths of sudo. | 06:53 |
| SoS11 | !boot | 06:53 |
| ubottu | Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 06:53 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | Flannel: oh, good to know that :) | 06:53 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: I am in visudo, now what tdo i do? | 06:53 |
| new2ubuntu | hey can someone help me finding the drivers i need for my laptop, because i don't think ubuntu is working has them yet | 06:54 |
| mrsteveman1 | upgrades work surprisingly well actually | 06:54 |
| psywiped | Spence_ your on 5.? right? | 06:54 |
| PCTeacher012 | it is pretty confusing... lol :p | 06:54 |
| frimple | I have a problem regarding auto detection of a SATA hard drive... ubuntu 8.10 server, can someone help? | 06:54 |
| mrsteveman1 | i expect things to break being in IT, but ubuntu upgrade worked very well twice for me this week | 06:54 |
| Spence_ | i'm sorry, what? | 06:54 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: the sudoers man page gives a whole lot of details (and more importantly, examples). Why don't you peruse that while I look for a good one online. | 06:54 |
| psywiped | frimple sorry not at the moment | 06:54 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay | 06:54 |
| psywiped | Spence_ what verson of ubuntu are you on? | 06:54 |
| frimple | happy to wait | 06:55 |

| PCTeacher012 | so far, i have %users... idk what next and i cnt find exanples | 06:57 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: alright. http://debaan.blogspot.com/2007/02/sudo-sudoers-examples.html almost all the way at the bottom, jake,jim LOCAL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/service crond restart (I haven't looked through the rest of that sudoers, but that line is exactly what you need) You can change LOCAL to ALL, since you likely don't care about localhost vs not. | 06:57 |
| new2ubuntu | when i click on the internet icon in the bar at the top, it doesnt have any networks there, so im guessing that means that it doesnt have the drivers for my computer. so can someone help me finding the linux drivers i need to get the wireless working? | 06:57 |
| frimple | I would hope my question would be quick. 8.10 install won't detect attached SATA hdd, is there a default driver I should choose from the install menu? | 06:57 |
| Skippy | weee | 06:57 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay | 06:57 |
| PCTeacher012 | thnx a ton Flannel | 06:57 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: and, of course, you can change the list of usernames to a group. (and you want to modify the command to be the command he'll do, full path to the command) | 06:58 |
| bernz | frimple, quick answer (not necessarily "good"): kubuntu seems to be better at detecting SATA drives, in my experience -- no idea of a "trick" for regular ubuntu for SATA | 06:58 |
| psywiped | frimple did it see them when using the live cd? | 06:58 |
| bernz | frimple, you could use kubuntu to get up and running, then overlay the regular ubuntu UI and stuff | 06:59 |
| frimple | not using the live CD (at least I think I am not) downloaded 8.10 iso and burned to disc. | 06:59 |
| psywiped | frimple and that would be the live ck | 06:59 |
| psywiped | frimple and that would be the live cd* | 06:59 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | lol | 07:00 |
| FloodBot3 | d_1nev1tab1e: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:00 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: alsa not also. You're missing a colon after NOPASSWD, and make LOCAL ALL instead. | 07:00 |
| frimple | did some firt level googling but didn't find any results related to my mobo | 07:00 |
| PCTeacher012 | ya, i noticed that xD But will that be the correct code? | 07:00 |

| frimple | *install | 07:01 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: "<USER> ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/service alsa force-reload" now? | 07:02 |
| psywiped | Spence_ yes if you boot from usb | 07:02 |
| Spence_ | alright, cool | 07:02 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: looks right, yes. | 07:02 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay, saving then testing | 07:02 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: instead of user, you can use a group too. If you want to give yourself that ability as well. | 07:02 |

| Aval0n | has anyone in here used dante-client? | 07:03 |
| bernz | frimple, you probably already know this, but your SATA driver would show up as a "SCSI" device, most likely, e.g. "/dev/sda" | 07:03 |
| PCTeacher012 | this is probably a retarted question but: how do i save it? And ill just do <USER>,<USER> since me and him are different groups | 07:03 |
| frimple | I'm sure I've burned another copy of the CD... though I think it was a intel install not AMD (which is the system I'm trying to install to now.) | 07:03 |
| Fezzler | It closed down | 07:03 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: um. Try escape, then :wq | 07:03 |
| frimple | >bernz can't even get to that point. installer won't recognize any attached drives. it prompts me for a specific driver \ | 07:03 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: (then enter)... or, if there's amenu type thing across the bottom. ctrl-o ctrl-x | 07:03 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: you are admin so u wont need to add urself | 07:04 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: "<USER>,<USER> ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/service alsa force-reload" good now? | 07:04 |
| Flannel | d_1nev1tab1e: when he adds himself, he'll be able to do it without a password. | 07:04 |
| PCTeacher012 | it wouldnt let me run it without sudo d_1n | 07:04 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: It won't let you run it without sudo now either. It just won't require a password. | 07:04 |
| bernz | frimple, on a gateway laptop with SATA drive, i couldn't get ubuntu to recognized any attached drives either, but kubuntu (7) worked (weird) | 07:04 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | oh i get it now | 07:04 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: (and your brother will also have to use sudo. But again, no password, and no additional privledges) | 07:04 |
| PCTeacher012 | so i still have to do "sudo alsa force-reload" not "alsa force-reload"? | 07:05 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: correct. | 07:05 |
| c420s | does anyone know how to prevent X-Server from automatically starting when I do CTRL+ALT+ESC? | 07:05 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: gksudo if its in a launcher | 07:05 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: Lol, i forgot, kk | 07:05 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: "/etc/sudoers.tmp" Correct? | 07:05 |
| zcat[1] | anybody? Is there a nice simple application that will let me record the video I can see in tvtime? | 07:05 |
| PCTeacher012 | on write out it did that | 07:06 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: yeah. and then ctrl-x to close. | 07:06 |
| zcat[1] | everything else is working, just nothing seems to be able to record | 07:06 |
| frimple | hmmm... it's a Asus M2N-E board... I wouldn't think you would need a special driver to see a HDD attached to the SATA ports right on the mobo | 07:06 |
| bernz | are the screensavers bundled with intrepid "configurable"? IOW, can i adjust settings on the various screensavers? (even if it means editing a text file) | 07:06 |
| frimple | maybe i'll download and burn the standard instead of server.... is the upgrade easy? | 07:06 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel and d_1n: Testing now | 07:06 |

| fk_007 | hello | 07:07 |
| psywiped | PCTeacher012 run the cops are coming | 07:07 |
| bernz | frimple, if you mean server vs desktop, then the differences are insignificant -- once installed, you can "switch" from desktop to server or vv just by installing/uninstalling various packages | 07:07 |
| PCTeacher012 | psywiped: LOL | 07:07 |

| psywiped | Spence_ yes | 07:09 |
| PCTeacher012 | "<USER>,<USER> ALL = NOPASSWD: /sbin/service alsa force-reload" still good? or something wrong @ Flannel | 07:09 |

| psywiped | Spence_ its not ramdom | 07:09 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: u did replace<USER> with the correct username, right? | 07:09 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1n: Yes | 07:09 |
| bernz | frimple, yeah; i'm still a bootloader novice, but you might be able to install an "advanced" bootloader (e.g. GRUB2), and perhaps it will have enough "smarts" to get the live CD started... i dunno | 07:09 |

| frimple | it's a newer SSD drive but that shouldn't matter... right? | 07:10 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: try adding (ALL) infront of NOPASSWD: (in between = and NOPASSWD, with a space) | 07:10 |
| Spence_ | well, i'm just minding my own buisness scrolling and it will change desktops. what am i doing to make it do that? | 07:10 |
| psywiped | frimple nope same controler | 07:10 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: Also, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sudoers explains what we're doing. Its a pretty good read. | 07:10 |
| frimple | yeah, that's what I thought | 07:10 |
| psywiped | frimple but use ext4 it makes better use of those | 07:11 |
| bernz | frimple, what's behind the interface (IDE, SATA, etc) is totally irrelevant, and shouldn't affect anything (except physically, like heat generation, etc ;-) | 07:11 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: lol thanks :) and this is final make "calebandmom,cody ALL = ALL NOPASSWD: /sbin/service alsa force-reload" | 07:11 |

| frimple | >psywiped I believe I'm evidence of the contrary | 07:12 |
| psywiped | frimple install from a usb drive | 07:13 |
| frimple | haha | 07:13 |
| frimple | if only I had the 16 gig usb drive i just ordered from the egg | 07:13 |
| frimple | no usb, but I have a server 2008 disk | 07:13 |
| psywiped | frimple you only need a 1gig | 07:13 |
| frimple | i can try that install | 07:14 |
| Out_Cold | if i can ifup wlan0 does that mean the device is configured? | 07:14 |
| bernz | error404notfound, it possible that it's showing that status for another network card which isn't connected; try double-clicking the icon for more, or right-clicking it, etc | 07:14 |
| psywiped | Out_Cold no u still have to configur it but at least the computer sees it | 07:14 |
| frimple | also, i did a CD check on the install dvd and no errors popped up. I can't imagine that using the usb stick vs a dvd would change the problem | 07:14 |
| error404notfound | bernz: when I click "Connection information" it says no valid connections found.. | 07:14 |
| PCTeacher012 | %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL (Kindof funny how many all's lol) | 07:15 |
| Out_Cold | configure it in /etc/network/interface? | 07:15 |
| error404notfound | Out_Cold: did... | 07:15 |
| Briandb1222 | erm, how do I know if I have the AMD64 platform? | 07:15 |
| bernz | frimple, i agree, starting via USB stick shouldn't "help" any program "see" the SATA drive if it's already "invisible" | 07:15 |
| error404notfound | Out_Cold: /etc/network/interfaces | 07:15 |
| PCTeacher012 | It saved but new error Flannel | 07:15 |
| PCTeacher012 | "Sorry, user calebandmom is not allowed to execute '/sbin/alsa force-reload' as root on cody-desktop." @ flannel | 07:15 |
| bernz | Briandb1222, you did *purchase* your hardware, right? ;-) the user manual usually describes your equipment specs | 07:15 |
| bernz | Briandb1222, you can also often run software to tell you about your system (e.g. 'devicemanager') | 07:16 |
| frimple | brb, going to use the 2k8 install dvd and see if it spot's the hdd | 07:16 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: ur entry is still wrong | 07:16 |
| Enigma | wtf... you have to hold down alt to move windows around in the new gnome | 07:16 |
| Briandb1222 | bernz: bought it used from my stepdad. I don't think he gave me the manual and don't know if he has it. | 07:16 |
| PCTeacher012 | "calebandmom, cody aLL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/service alsa force-reload" | 07:16 |
| bernz | error404notfound, YMMV, but i had to erase the existing (default) profile in networkmanager, then create one (i use static IP) for my LAN connection. | 07:16 |
| PCTeacher012 | A::* | 07:16 |
| PCTeacher012 | ALL* | 07:16 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: calebandmom, cody ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /sbin/alsa force-reload | 07:17 |
| PCTeacher012 | sudo alsa force-reload | 07:17 |

| Flannel | sudo service alsa force-reload | 07:17 |

| PCTeacher012 | ahh d_1n LOL, thanks, testing again | 07:18 |
| Enigma | i hope there is a way to turn that off | 07:18 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: No. That's wrong. Your sudoers was right. Your command wasn't. | 07:18 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: Flannel is right, ur missing service aswell | 07:18 |
| PCTeacher012 | Yea, Sudo it done now, it works :D Thanks a ton! | 07:18 |
| bernz | bazooka, well, it's sort of "risky", but you could shell out to run 'ps aux | grep something' where 'something' is probably "java" or whatever clue you'll find in the 'ps aux' output that identifies apps running in a JVM | 07:19 |
| error404notfound | another issues is that I unmute mic to use skype but as soon as I close volume manager, mic is again muted, I have to keep it minimized.. | 07:19 |
| PCTeacher012 | okay | 07:19 |
| PCTeacher012 | tell me if my launcher is correct "gksudo alsa force-reload" | 07:19 |
| psywiped | frimple what does fdisk -l tell you? | 07:19 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | correct | 07:19 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: no. service | 07:19 |
| bernz | bazooka, i say "risky" because shelling out to have a script do something has various security implications (but this is assuming you're not already in the shell, like a bash script or something) | 07:19 |
| frimple | >psywiped hang on, server 2k8 dvd is just starting up | 07:19 |
| psywiped | fts | 07:20 |

| SiDi | Does anyone know how to disassemble a binary with nasm ? | 07:20 |
| zcat[1] | nope. surely there is something I can use | 07:20 |
| frimple | it's a fresh drive, completely clean btw | 07:20 |
| PCTeacher012 | thanks d_1nev1table, and Flannel, Service is now alsa, so command is "<USER>, <USER> ALL = (ALL) /etc/alsa alsa force-reload" and launcher is "gksudo alsa force-reload" all correct flannel? | 07:20 |
| Flannel | d_1nev1tab1e: `service alsa force-reload` is the command you're running. You're running it with .... no. | 07:20 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: ^^ | 07:21 |
| psywiped | SiDi no but youtube may | 07:21 |
| psywiped | frimple doesnt matter | 07:21 |
| n8tuserf | SiDi -> arent you supposed to use debug first? | 07:21 |
| SiDi | n8tuserf, psywiped it's for a win32 virus :D | 07:21 |
| PCTeacher012 | Flannel: ^^ Finally, was that a hassle (But easier then it would be on windows! *Chuckles*) Thanks, that is enough in one day :) night | 07:21 |
| frimple | found another ubuntu 8.10 x64 disk btw.... is there a different version for intel vs AMD? | 07:21 |
| SoS11 | do I need to use pulseaudio if I have a HWMIX sblive soundcard? | 07:21 |
| Flannel | PCTeacher012: The command for sudoers is /sbin/service alsa force-reload. The command you run at the terminal is "sudo service alsa force-reload" or gksu instead of sudo (or gksudo) | 07:21 |
| bazooka | i intend to do this only on the college LAN ..as my project .. | 07:22 |
| psywiped | frimple no | 07:22 |
| PCTeacher012 | so my command was wrong? But it worked how it does when i run it as root? | 07:22 |
| psywiped | frimple amd owns the x64 instrunction set so its called that | 07:22 |
| n8tuserf | SiDi -> umm you cant run that on a debugger? | 07:22 |
| frimple | sweet, i'm sure the other disk I found is just the regular workstation 8.10 | 07:22 |
| sn00p- | does anybody know that packet injection works for bcm43xx in ubuntu? | 07:22 |
| bernz | frimple, you can get processor-specific kernel builds (or do them yourself), but the widely-distributed copies of ubuntu usually come with "vanilla" builds that are likely to run on the widest array of x86 processors without problems | 07:23 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | PCTeacher012: there are many ways to get it right.... | 07:23 |
| SiDi | n8tuserf, i don't think a win virus will be compiled to be run as an ELF binary with debugging symbols :/ | 07:23 |
| psywiped | SiDi so it has nothing to do with ubuntu? | 07:23 |
| SiDi | psywiped, well, it has to do with nasm, which is packaged in ubuntu :d (ok, i'm back in #asm) | 07:23 |
| PCTeacher012 | d_1nev1table: Lol, well, as far as i can think, it is :) It works like a charm :D No password asking, and does it 100%, thanks Flannel, thank d_1nev1table | 07:23 |
| psywiped | bet therse a #nasm here | 07:23 |

| nozavroni | I need to know what a certain user's home directory | 07:35 |

| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: yup. i have 2 instances of VLC open right now | 07:36 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: i'm not using my ubuntu router for this, i'm using my desktop machine for VLC. my router's command line only. | 07:37 |

| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: and i was using my laptop on another network to multicast using vlc just fine | 07:40 |
| labadmin | hi | 07:41 |
| LimeBurst | does wine support languages other than english? | 07:41 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: ur gentoo machine is ur laptop? | 07:41 |
| Briandb1222 | albech: hmmmm Wine? wierd. When I downloaded it it said it was for linux as well...hmmm | 07:41 |
| LimeBurst | brian | 07:41 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: i have a desktop and a laptop. both are gentoo | 07:41 |
| LimeBurst | try doing that through package manager | 07:41 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: my router is ubuntu, which is why i'm here :) | 07:41 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: ur laptop cant stream to itself on ur network? | 07:41 |
| LimeBurst | that way is much easier | 07:41 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: yeah, apparently | 07:42 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: multicast normall shouldnt even go to the router | 07:42 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: but i could be wrong, however the way i understood it it shouldnt go there | 07:42 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: that's my understanding too | 07:42 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: i mean only packets designated to leave subnet should go to the router | 07:43 |
| Wortman | LimeBurst Wine supports whatever language is installed in Ubuntu | 07:43 |
| Briandb1222 | LimeBurst: even if it is an EXE? | 07:43 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: i'm watching my network traffic in system monitor, and i'm sending out data at a constant 25 kb/s, but not receiving anything | 07:43 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: it probably is ur switch, but then i also believe it shouldnt even go to ur switch | 07:43 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: try unplugging ur computer from the network altogether and then streaming it | 07:44 |
| SiDi | Briandb1222, Wine is a linux API that allows running Windows programs under Linux | 07:44 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: ok, i'll just turn off the wifi :) | 07:44 |
| zorobyte | I just compiled the new kernel with make. Now, how do i install it? | 07:44 |
| Briandb1222 | SiDi: I'm aware | 07:44 |
| LimeBurst | brian | 07:45 |
| LimeBurst | what do mean it's an EXE Vfile | 07:45 |
| LimeBurst | file | 07:45 |
| LimeBurst | Wortman | 07:45 |
| LimeBurst | maybe a problem with ies4linux... | 07:45 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: it is not surprise that u get outgoing traffic. The multicast will spread to all nodes of the subnet | 07:46 |
| mattgyver83 | I have multiple symlinks, if i change the folder name that they point to, how may i update these links so that they aren't broken? | 07:46 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: on my laptop, it didn't like that. it said that host 224.0.0.11 port 1234 is unreachable | 07:46 |
| Briandb1222 | LimeBurst: It has the .exe extension. | 07:46 |
| Wortman | zorobyte you dont "install a kernel" if it is compiled, you need to edit your boot configuration file to point to it | 07:46 |
| Briandb1222 | ok I thought I said LimeWire at first. | 07:46 |
| LimeBurst | heh | 07:46 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: this is VLC throwing the error as I try to stream | 07:46 |
| LimeBurst | wine was made to execute exe files on linux | 07:46 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: i could be wrong but i believe that ur switch doesnt support multicast and gentoo insists on sending it out to its next node. | 07:47 |
| wolter | please pm me if you are having issues with your dell xps m1530 | 07:47 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: maybe u can enable multicast on ur switch? | 07:47 |
| labadmin | i want to create my own ubuntu live cd | 07:47 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: yeah maybe. how i do that in a linksys router, no clue | 07:47 |
| Briandb1222 | oh, nevermind...seems I have what I was looking for on the package manager | 07:48 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: access the routers settings with a web-browser by typing its ip after http:// and browse the settings, see if u find something related | 07:48 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: SOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 07:48 |
| PF | quit | 07:48 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: Linksys Settings: Filter Multicast is CHECKED | 07:49 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: :) | 07:49 |
| Shinu | that was odd. | 07:49 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: you know why? cuz the linksys router does basically nothing anymore. all it does is act as wireless bridge, so the ubuntu router can provide dns, dhcp, and wan access wirelessly. it connects to the linksys router via rj45 | 07:50 |
| HorizonXP1 | for the last year, i haven't touched ANYTHING.... so if anything goes wrong, i figure it's some setting on the box | 07:50 |
| HorizonXP1 | i never even considered the linksys router | 07:50 |
| gene2 | I'm trying to get the source for linux-image-2.6.24-23-rt, so I do apt-get source linux-image-2.6.24-23-rt and I get the kernel source, however when I run make menuconfig I notice that the full preempt components are missing and the choices it tries to load from /boot/config-2.6.24-23-rt are missing | 07:50 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: so its fixed now? | 07:51 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: i'm trying now, but it doesn't seem like it | 07:51 |
| gene2 | how and when does the patch 2.6.24.7-rt21 get applied when the original package was made, because when I downloaded the patch and tried to apply manually it wouldn't go in, some files were alredy modified while others were not | 07:52 |

| snoopy1alpha | hi there. Is there a way to tell which kernel module is responsible for the wireless card? | 07:52 |
| HorizonXP1 | d_1nev1tab1e: i did. no dice. | 07:52 |
| gene2 | lsmod | 07:52 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: make sure u applied the settings and restart the router | 07:53 |
| snoopy1alpha | yes, but the list is too long and I don't know which module is the right one | 07:53 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP1: if it still doesnt work u should contact linksys about its. it clearly is not an ubuntu issue :P | 07:53 |

| d_1nev1tab1e | HorizonXP: it surely is a problem with the linksys router which ur using solely as a switch. You would need to consult linksys as I dont know what could be wrong with it. | 08:09 |

| grey | joot: thanks for trying | 08:35 |
| zie | hi | 08:35 |
| zie | hi there | 08:35 |
| Guest53308 | hi all, any help with this error expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before string constant ? | 08:35 |
| groken | palmje: in the case of tmpfs, the contents are removed on unmount i do believe. but i was looking at the same thing if there was no direct option to do this | 08:36 |
| kkathman | jam3s0n, the x server is one thing...nvidia is another | 08:36 |
| groken | thanks | 08:36 |
| palmje | jam3s0n: the nvidia x server is basically the settings for the nvidia driver for the x-server | 08:36 |
| kkathman | jam3s0n, google is your friend :) | 08:36 |
| ktebit | the last ubuntu wont have all driver before a year? | 08:36 |
| Seven-7 | I'm having problems with step 8 on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBoot#Installing%20Windows%20After%20Ubuntu | 08:36 |
| zie | i was successfuly install mysql on ubuntu , but i can't setup new passwd | 08:37 |
| jam3s0n | google, is the endless world of nothing | 08:37 |
| kkathman | palmje, technically that's not exactly right, the xserver is the display mechanism, the xorg.conf is the settings for it | 08:37 |
| zie | anybody can tell me ? | 08:37 |
| joot | grey, Wait for twenty minutes and re ask you question | 08:37 |
| grey | joot: ok | 08:37 |
| kkathman | jam3s0n, if you want to run linux, you'd better learn to use it :) | 08:37 |
| jam3s0n | just got it last night ;) | 08:37 |
| ktebit | the last ubuntu wont have all driver before a year? | 08:38 |
| * jwh335 hi | 08:39 | |
| jam3s0n | my screen refreshes 6 times then stops the gdm, then i restart it and it does it again... eventually it works though | 08:39 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | kkathman: ubuntu shouldnt be so hard that you would need to depend on google. That atleast is the goal | 08:39 |
| palmje | kkathman: true, but I was just trying to keep it fairly simple | 08:39 |
| kkathman | d_1nev1tab1e, lol, but we know thats not true right :) | 08:39 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | kkathman: thats y we are here :P | 08:39 |
| kkathman | eventually people will need to fix things :) | 08:40 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | but i always have faith in the next version. jaunty for now | 08:40 |
| kkathman | d_1nev1tab1e, I've run ubuntu since Warty, so I think its getting better, but when things break (and they will) google is a great resource, if not just the ubuntu wiki :) | 08:41 |
| kkathman | or the forums :) | 08:41 |
| Flannel | kkathman: Please direct them to the wiki and the forums before google though. | 08:41 |
| jam3s0n | there is tons of solutions for this, but none that have worked as they should | 08:41 |
| Seven-7 | How do I find out a partitions number? | 08:41 |
| palmje | groken: true, or you could simply mount the new location over the top of the old one... | 08:41 |
| d_1nev1tab1e | kkathman: i know it does and it makes me forget how to use command line tools. :P | 08:42 |
| Zencyde | I'm sure someone in here uses WoW. Has anyone had any issues getting it to boot under Wine? I just updated my nVidia graphics driver and I'm too lazy and stoned to go tinkering. | 08:43 |
| JessicaParker | hi can anyone assist with getting postfix configures with email on ubuntu ? | 08:43 |
| kkathman | d_1nev1tab1e, lol - I was a bit lucky, I had a guru that taught me that 1st! | 08:43 |

| jvm | hey guys. i installed apache2 and the php5 module, but when restarting apache, it says "/usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". locate shows no such file on the whole system. how to fix it? | 08:44 |
| cody_ | hello | 08:46 |
| palmje | jvm: have you installed the libapache2-mod-php5 package? | 08:47 |
| cody_ | I have installed ubuntu currently | 08:47 |
| cody_ | but unable to boot it | 08:48 |
| eternal_ | !ircd | 08:48 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ircd | 08:48 |
| eternal_ | !irc | 08:48 |
| ubottu | A list of official Ubuntu IRC channels, as well as IRC clients for Ubuntu, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat - For a general list of !freenode channels, see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#channellist - See also !Guidelines | 08:48 |
| cody_ | I have started using wubi | 08:48 |
| jvm | palmje, yeah. | 08:48 |
| eternal_ | !find ircd | 08:48 |
| ubottu | Found: dancer-ircd, dancer-ircd-doc, inspircd, inspircd-dbg, ircd-hybrid (and 7 others) | 08:48 |
| lstarnes | eternal_: try aptitude search ircd | 08:49 |
| zie | jvm, check on module conf | 08:49 |
| jvm | zie, what do you mean? | 08:49 |
| palmje | jvm: have you changed any of the settings (for apache)? | 08:49 |
| eternal_ | lstarnes: thanx i installed dancer but couldn't get it to show out to the real world | 08:49 |
| lstarnes | eternal_: consider a different ircd. dancer is very old and hard to configure | 08:50 |
| jvm | palmje, i reconfigured the port settings and adapted the default virtual host, as well having changed the AllowOverride setting in the default host. | 08:50 |
| lstarnes | eternal_: inspircd may be available | 08:50 |
| eternal_ | oki ty | 08:50 |
| zie | cat /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.load | 08:51 |
| eternal_ | lstarnes: thanx it was only listing dancer in the synaptic before :) | 08:52 |
| jvm | zie, LoadModule php5_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/libphp5.so | 08:52 |
| zie | check that's file exist ? | 08:52 |
| jvm | it does not. | 08:52 |
| zie | lol | 08:52 |
| zie | you must installed first | 08:52 |
| palmje | jvm: that shouldn't affect the php module at all... Try doing a reinstall of the php and see if that replaces the file | 08:53 |
| Martyr2k6 | well, ubuntu loves my quad core now | 08:53 |
| Martyr2k6 | now I just have to determine which vm software is best for running multiple operating systems | 08:53 |
| Martyr2k6 | any help? | 08:54 |
| rww | !vm | Martyr2k6: I recommend Virtualbox. There are a bunch | 08:54 |
| ubottu | Martyr2k6: I recommend Virtualbox. There are a bunch: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications | 08:54 |
| jvm | zie, palmje, thanks for your help. | 08:55 |
| Martyr2k6 | well here is my thing, I want to run vista and xp under ubuntu at will, and to use them as though they were the sole os | 08:55 |
| Martyr2k6 | basically I want the vm to use all the hardware I have in this machine | 08:56 |
| Martyr2k6 | not sure if vbox can do that | 08:56 |
| zie | jvm yep | 08:56 |
| Martyr2k6 | like, I want to be able to have vista or xp on some sort of vm and say, run any game I have | 08:57 |
| WERDER|iceroot | Martyr2k6: not your 3d-card and soundcard | 08:57 |
| WERDER|iceroot | Martyr2k6: use dual-boot | 08:57 |
| Martyr2k6 | no other solutions? | 08:57 |
| palmje | Martyr2k6: No virtual machine can use the hardware as well as if it is directly installed and graphics is one of the biggest weak points of them | 08:57 |
| WERDER|iceroot | Martyr2k6: no | 08:57 |
| Seven-7 | How do I find out a partitions number? | 08:58 |
| palmje | Seven-7: you could use a tool like parted | 08:58 |
| j416 | i believe VMWare has 3D acceleration | 08:58 |
| Martyr2k6 | hmmm, is there a way that I can get ubuntu to recognize either my zune or my external hard drive ? | 08:58 |
| j416 | try and see. | 08:58 |
| Zeit|awy_ | palmje: let's say, no x86 hardware can do that.. ;) | 08:58 |
| Seven-7 | palmje: Yeah, but what is the number located at? | 08:59 |
| Seven-7 | Is it the number next to sda? | 09:01 |
| palmje | Seven-7: parted is a partitioning tool and as such it can show you the attached hdds and partitions in each of those drives so you should be able to get all the information from that and if you want a GUI you can use gparted or qtparted | 09:01 |
| palmje | Seven-7: sda1 means 1st device partition 1 | 09:01 |
| icqn | !info btnx | 09:02 |

| RandomCake | Hi, I just insalled 9.04 on a P4 system, and after logging in I've just got a blank scree and a mouse cursor, how can I go about figuring out what's wrong? :S | 09:12 |
| === marie_blubb_ is now known as marie_blubb | ||
| rww | RandomCake: Jaunty questions and support in #ubuntu+1, not here, thanks :) | 09:12 |
| rww | I really need to macro that. | 09:12 |
| RandomCake | ah, okay, thans rww :) | 09:12 |
| palmje | seradin: as far as I know www-data is only used by apache so it should be fine, also make sure that www-data also has execute permission on the folders leading to public_html | 09:13 |
| jam3s0n | ktebit, who are you talking to? | 09:13 |
| raVen1 | how would i even know if i dont have any background on linux | 09:13 |
| raVen1 | !repeat | rww | 09:14 |
| ubottu | rww: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 09:14 |
| seradin | palmje: okay, thanks. My home folder has drwxr-x--x, so It should be fine. Does the execute permission for 'others' give other users any access to the home directory here? | 09:14 |
| rww | raVen1: Hmm? | 09:15 |
| raVen1 | nvm | 09:15 |
| seradin | I have set up my home-directories to not allow other users to view their content, is there a clever and good way to still let the webserver access the public_html folder ? | 09:15 |

| woodefec | hey, what to do if gnome doesn't keep my appearance settings after restart / re-login? | 09:16 |
| woodefec | i just get some basic grey,fonts aren't kept either | 09:16 |
| raVen1 | help guys..can some1 help me install crypt::ssleay and gtk2::trayicon! | 09:16 |
| crdlb | woodefec: for some reason, gnome-settings-daemon isn't starting | 09:17 |
| palmje | seradin: all execute permission does on a folder is enable you to go into that directory, but it wont allow people to see the contents of that directory so they will need to know filenames/foldernames to be able to do anything and they will need the right permissions on those as well | 09:17 |
| seradin | palmje: okay, thats what I wanted to know :-), thanks | 09:17 |
| palmje | seradin: you can also set the umask of each user to set the default permissions of the files/folders they create | 09:18 |
| woodefec | crdlb, ok, i started here with xubuntu, but than installed the gnome meta-packages | 09:18 |

| BePhantom | hi all, does anybody knows about hard disks? | 09:20 |
| crdlb | woodefec: might be a good idea; I'm not sure I'd trust those gnome packages in universe to install everything | 09:20 |
| solaar | does anybody here run ubuntu on a powerpc? | 09:20 |
| sunset46 | what do you need to know about hard disks? | 09:20 |
| raVen1 | this channel is only interesting and helpful when Huufarted and musikgoat are here | 09:21 |
| crdlb | woodefec: if nothing else works, you can probably add a 'gnome-settings-daemon' startup apps entry in System > Preferences > Sessions | 09:21 |
| solaar | i just installed it on a g5 imac and i'm having a lot of issues with flash and vlc | 09:21 |
| woodefec | crdlb, oh no, that package isgoing to give me too much unnecessary stuff | 09:21 |
| solaar | not to mention i can't set my resolution higher than 1024x768 | 09:21 |
| sunset46 | ok I have no experience working with those two apps | 09:21 |
| crdlb | woodefec: --no-install-recommends should cut it down a lot | 09:21 |
| rww | solaar: Try #ubuntu-powerpc if you don't get an answer here. | 09:22 |
| BePhantom | hi all, i have a doubt about hard disks. I have a 5400 rpm hard disk in my lappy, i want to know if hard disks speed is variable or constant (5400 at all times) | 09:22 |
| crdlb | woodefec: eg no mono stuff | 09:22 |
| woodefec | crdlb, i'llsee whathappens withthat deamon | 09:22 |
| palmje | BePhantom: just ask what you want to know and if someone knows the answer they will most likely respond | 09:22 |
| solaar | oh cool, didn't know about that channl, thanks rww | 09:22 |
| woodefec | thank you! | 09:22 |
| woodefec | see you | 09:22 |
| rww | solaar: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ may also be helpful. | 09:22 |
| palmje | BePhantom: the speed varies and also data access speed is affected by where on the disk platter it is stored | 09:22 |
| solaar | rww: thanks, but the internet is seriously not helpful--i always try google before irc | 09:23 |
| solaar | i've spent a few hours researching and have come up empty | 09:23 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about secondlife | 09:34 |
| lstarnes | strAlan: I've heard of it but don't use it | 09:34 |
| Slart | kristian_: generally speaking, no.. a linux computer is vulnerable to bad things too.. but for a couple of reasons it's less likely to get infected.. the biggest one imho is that malware writers target windows, second because you don't run as root | 09:34 |

| lstarnes | strAlan: whoever you got the patch from might know which file to applu it to | 09:35 |
| lstarnes | *apply | 09:35 |

| rww | peeeq: what about it? | 09:36 |
| lstarnes | strAlan: go to the top and move the patch there as well | 09:36 |
| omid | can you help me for this action? | 09:36 |
| Alex_21 | Why do you say Good luck? how is a custome distro supossed to be 8 MB? | 09:36 |
| kristian_ | rww : but what about the crap that targets ubuntu? | 09:36 |
| peeeq | i would like if i could define maximum width for my windows list | 09:36 |
| omid | how should i use squid_ldap_auth? | 09:37 |
| peeeq | when panel is not expanded | 09:37 |
| raVen1 | !find crypt::ssleay | 09:37 |
| ubottu | Package/file crypt::ssleay does not exist in intrepid | 09:37 |
| lstarnes | omid: in unix/linux, if something is run and returns to the shell prompt without doing anything, that usually means that it worked | 09:37 |
| lstarnes | raVen1: try libcrypt-ssleay-perl | 09:37 |
| eternal_ | Alex_21: have you tried other distros there is small ones for your purpose | 09:37 |
| DigitalKiwi | Alex_21: well ubuntu isn't generally known for fitting on that small of space | 09:37 |
| Alex_21 | Well, I haen't tried others | 09:37 |
| DigitalKiwi | s/generally/ever/ ? | 09:37 |
| rww | kristian_: I have yet to find any. If you're concerned about it, the NoScript and AdBlock extensions for Firefox should do a pretty good job of stopping it. | 09:37 |
| kristian_ | Slart : so if malware writers targeted linux, then we would have the same amount of crap on linux as on windows? | 09:37 |
| Alex_21 | The problem is that I know Ubuntu administration | 09:38 |
| SiDi | Alex_21, what is the hdd size you have ? extremely little distros still are about 100MB (inc. 20 for kernel) | 09:38 |
| DigitalKiwi | well learn some linux administration then ;D | 09:38 |
| strAlan | lstarnes, i'm in the first directory of the source | 09:38 |
| rww | !virus | kristian_: rationale on this link applies to both viruses and malware | 09:38 |
| ubottu | kristian_: rationale on this link applies to both viruses and malware: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 09:38 |
| DigitalKiwi | or get a bigger card :) | 09:38 |
| omid | but at this command should request user and password | 09:38 |
| Slart | kristian_: perhaps not the same amount.. but we would have some, at least | 09:38 |
| omid | /usr/lib/squid/ldap_auth -b "dc=unileveriran,dc=com" -f "uid=%s" -h 152.109.248.2 | 09:38 |

| strAlan | lstarnes, i'll pastebin it | 09:38 |

| jatt | how can I activate tmpfs on hardy? | 09:38 |
| doseryder | does anyone know which package contains the glibc documentations (man 3 pages) which I could apt-get ? | 09:39 |
| kristian_ | rww : yeah, i've read that one. :-) | 09:39 |
| doseryder | the name of the package | 09:39 |

| SwArcher | I can't wait for Ubuntu 9.04... I loved 8.10 | 09:40 |
| strAlan | 8.04 is enough for me | 09:40 |
| woodbj | SwArcher: same | 09:40 |
| Alex_21 | Oh, and a GUI | 09:40 |
| rww | peeeq: there's a /apps/panel/applets/window_list_IDHERE/prefs/maximum_size, but it's deprecated. | 09:40 |
| strAlan | SwArcher, if you loved 8.10 why go to 9.04 ? | 09:40 |
| doseryder | 8.10 failed to load X for me | 09:40 |
| doseryder | the 8.10 liveCD failed to load X I mean. (Its a black screen) while 8.04 hardy worked fine | 09:41 |
| strAlan | lstarnes, do you see what I mean about the "File to patch:" prompt ? | 09:41 |
| Alex_21 | I stick with 8.04 because I do the backend stuff on servers and the desktops get monthly tune-ups by a small tech department that often has only one indevidual on staff | 09:41 |
| Alex_21 | Whi is part time | 09:42 |

| strAlan | lstarnes, ok - did you view the webpage that is giving me these directions | 09:45 |
| peeeq | rww: damn... its very annoying when i have many windows open and the panel pops top of two other panels i have both sides of windowlist-panel... | 09:45 |
| strAlan | lstarnes, do you agree that it doesn't specify which file to patch | 09:45 |
| strAlan | lstarnes, it just says "here's a patch" but doesn't say which file to patch | 09:45 |
| SwArcher | strAlan, Newer packages are my motivation. Besides, when support for 8.10 is discontinued, I don't want to be there | 09:45 |
| doseryder | lstarnes do i have to restart the system for it to take effect? I tried to man 3 malloc to test to see if it works, but it didn't find the manual entry | 09:45 |
| seradin | My public_html-folder is now drwxr-x---, but when i create a file in it, it is set to -rw-r--r--, how can i control the permissions of newly created files in it? | 09:45 |

| Alex_21 | Is there a way to lock the Kernel so that it is never updated? | 09:47 |
| SwArcher | ranook: What kind of player is it? | 09:47 |
| Alex_21 | When I run Sudo apt-get upgrade? | 09:47 |

| sancho21 | What makes my ubuntu heavy. It gets heavy as I see the 1 GB swap is full (0 left). I used top, but there was no strange applications running. I ended it up using physical restart button | 09:48 |

| peeeq | rww: or anybody.. can you recommend (or is there) any other panel application with windowslist to replace gnome panel?? | 09:49 |
| Guest92492 | hello. how can you connect to this server with tor? paranoia eats me | 09:49 |
| strAlan | lstarnes, thanks for your help - it didn't help my situation but I know for next time how to use patch and the different patch #'s | 09:50 |
| lstarnes | Guest92492: http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml#tor | 09:50 |
| Guest92492 | thx | 09:50 |
| lstarnes | strAlan: for most patches, -p1 or -p0 will work | 09:50 |
| strAlan | lstarnes, I don't suppose you'd be willing to help me get the second life viewer installed...using cmake | 09:50 |
| lstarnes | Guest92492: tor tends to lag on this network and many channels ban it, including this one | 09:50 |
| rww | Guest92492: Note that you'll need to do the gpg-key identify thing to get into #ubuntu if you're using TOR. | 09:51 |
| SwArcher | Alex_21: That sometimes makes my VirtualBox stop working... | 09:51 |
| lstarnes | Guest92492: unless you have an gpg-tor account | 09:51 |
| Guest92492 | nope dont have one | 09:51 |

| crdlb | `brandon`: you can install it with any package manager, eg: sudo apt-get install irssi | 10:04 |
| crdlb | FrugalTest: a few more weeks :) | 10:05 |
| debia | anooptp, it maybe you are missing more than just this... because the library is normally pulled in as dependency. | 10:05 |
| zvacet | FrugalTest : take updates and in few weeks you will get final version | 10:05 |

| Alex_21 | There isn't a Kernel for my machine | 10:19 |
| Alex_21 | If I use a Kernel that was compiled on Opensuse 10.3, will it work with Ubuntu 8.04? | 10:19 |
| tonyyarusso | `brandon`: There are multiple ways. /win <number>, alt+<number>, or additional commands from add-on scripts. | 10:20 |
| tonyyarusso | Alex_21: what kind of machine is it? | 10:20 |
| rww | `brandon`: /join #channelname to join a new channel, Ctrl-n to switch to the next window, Alt-NUMBER to switch to Window #NUMBER. | 10:20 |
| francesco_ | why nobody answer me ? | 10:20 |
| Alex_21 | Netvista 2200 | 10:20 |
| Alex_21 | A neat little box, but a frustrating one | 10:20 |
| zvacet | Alex_21 : are you saying that you can not run ubuntu at all | 10:20 |
| tonyyarusso | Alex_21: Isn't that just a normal x86? | 10:20 |
| Alex_21 | Nope, unless I try this kernel | 10:21 |
| dehyde01 | hmmmm... can anybody help me..? | 10:21 |
| Alex_21 | That was meant for Opensuse 10.3 | 10:21 |
| anooptp | tonyyarusso;wen i export mp3 file in audacity, its ack 2 locate" /usr/lib/libmp3lame.so.0" , i cant,there is no such file | 10:21 |
| tonyyarusso | Alex_21: well, you could try that, although I'm not sure what you mean about how that kernel would be any different. What's not working with the Ubuntu one? | 10:21 |
| zcat[1] | is there ANY software in ubuntu that can take video from /dev/video and audio from /dev/dsp and compress the two into an avi or mpg? vlc fails. ffmpeg fails. | 10:21 |
| quellochetipare | hi all | 10:22 |
| quellochetipare | is there anyone who's following the development of ATI drivers for ubuntu 9.04? I'm beta-testing it and they has been great for a day, a couple of days ago, and then it returned not so well, having problems with the video buffer and 3d applications... | 10:22 |
| zvacet | francesco_ : did you tried with pon dsl-provider | 10:22 |
| dehyde01 | My Transmission keeps saying the port is closed, although i did open it in my router... | 10:22 |
| ultrasonic | hi, my sound stopped working after i forced closed my media player, as it got stuck playing at one spot. | 10:22 |
| tonyyarusso | quellochetipare: All Jaunty questions are in #ubuntu+1 | 10:22 |
| codyhulk | ultrasonic, update your drivers | 10:22 |
| Alex_21 | The kernel that I am trying to use is compiled for the Netvista 2200 specifically becaus the machine in question's firmware does not allow for a boot loader and is really odd | 10:23 |
| icqnumber | !info revoco | 10:23 |
| ubottu | Package revoco does not exist in intrepid | 10:23 |
| tonyyarusso | Alex_21: oh that is weird. How old is this thing? | 10:23 |
| Alex_21 | 2001 was the last Firmware release | 10:23 |
| `brandon` | can i use /server -m on irssi? | 10:23 |
| rww | `brandon`: what's that supposed to do? | 10:24 |
| lstarnes | `brandon`: try /connect instead of /server -m | 10:24 |
| zcat[1] | anybody? | 10:24 |
| Alex_21 | It reaquires an uncompressed kernel called a Kernel.2x00 file or Kernel.2200 file, depending on how it feels | 10:24 |
| ikonia | zcat[1]: anybody what ? | 10:24 |
| zcat[1] | is there ANY software in ubuntu that can take video from /dev/video and audio from /dev/dsp and compress the two into an avi or mpg? vlc fails. ffmpeg fails. | 10:24 |

| zcat[1] | video is from a plain PAL signal through a bt878 card.. | 10:25 |
| dehyde01 | would you rather everybody talked at the same time? =] | 10:25 |
| zcat[1] | it seems nothing can record it | 10:25 |
| `brandon` | thank you. | 10:25 |
| hett | hey guys, what driver would you suggest for D-Link DWA-120 wireless adapter? sure under ubuntu? | 10:25 |
| kristian_ | codyhulk : this channel is not for talking, it's for asking questions/answering. #ubuntu-offtopic is for random talk. :-P | 10:26 |
| zcat[1] | I can watch it in tvtime or xawtv or vlc easily enough; but sending it to a file seems to be an impossible task | 10:26 |
| Raulin | codyhulk, not everyone here has a problem with ubuntu you know ;-) | 10:26 |
| dehyde01 | Is there anybody here who can help me with a couple of questions? | 10:26 |
| ikonia | zcat[1]: don't know much about that cdard | 10:26 |
| ikonia | dehyde01: if you ask, we can try | 10:26 |
| zcat[1] | about the best answer so far seems to be to watch it in tvtime and then use istanbul to screencap the output. which is just nuts. | 10:27 |
| Alex_21 | I have a kernel that was meant for Opensuse 10.3 | 10:27 |
| zvacet | Raulin : but we are here to help ones who does | 10:27 |
| ikonia | Alex_21: what's the question ? | 10:27 |
| Alex_21 | Can I use it with Ubuntu8.04 | 10:27 |
| dehyde01 | well... first, by transmission keeps saying that port 51413 is closed... | 10:27 |
| Alex_21 | ? | 10:27 |
| Alex_21 | Please | 10:27 |
| dehyde01 | but its not, according to my router | 10:27 |
| ikonia | Alex_21: I would advise against it due to patching, but you can dry it | 10:27 |
| tovella | zcat[1]: when it fails, what error message do you find? | 10:27 |
| rww | Alex_21, we already told you: it might work, it might not. Either way, *custom kernels are not supported here* | 10:27 |

| francesco_ | need help please | 10:28 |
| Alex_21 | I'll try it. Second, is there a way to shrink the size of Ubuntu past the 300 MB mark | 10:28 |
| ikonia | Alex_21: remove packages, | 10:28 |
| ikonia | Alex_21: drop anything you don't need/want | 10:28 |
| dehyde01 | second.. I have a KVM, and each time i switch back to Ubuntu my mouse goes insane... | 10:29 |
| Alex_21 | Like what. I already have just the command-line Minimal install | 10:29 |
| zcat[1] | I've tried lots of different things.. usually something about the input format not being supported, or similar | 10:29 |
| tovella | zcat[1]: if ffmpeg and vlc are failing, i would check for what errors are being reported. | 10:29 |
| ikonia | Alex_21: dpkg -l check what you don't want | 10:29 |
| francesco_ | my card is bcm4401-bo and stop work after upgrade from 8.04 to 8.10 | 10:29 |

| Guest57341 | CAiRO: Can you not just block individual users? | 12:28 |
| Guest57341 | CAiRO: If not, then it's probably not supported by the protocol. | 12:29 |

| Edwardly | Hi, I'm having a little trouble with disk write speeds - they're very slow, roughly 3mb/s on my Thinkpad X61t.. default ubuntu install. | 12:58 |
| === mk is now known as Guest79732 | ||
| ssd1 | Drknezz: why you say me this when i know it ? xD | 12:58 |
| Drknezz | JosefAssad: i think you need to reinstall vista's and grub bootloaders ;) | 12:58 |
| Edwardly | Any ideas what would be causing it to behave that way? | 12:58 |
| Drknezz | ssd1: XD | 12:58 |
| ljsoftnet | when you use grub, it automatically displays a list of OS's right, why does mine show Grub 1.5 loadiing, then the list? | 12:58 |
| ssd1 | ljsoftnet: did you fixed this or not ? | 12:59 |
| Draco_ | hey, I don't suppose Xchat lets you use scripts? | 12:59 |
| lstarnes | Draco_: it does | 12:59 |
| jrib | Draco_: it does | 12:59 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: the only OS in the list must be linux | 12:59 |
| kravlin | SliderMan: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=599032 | 12:59 |
| JosefAssad | Drknezz: I've already installed grub again. IS there a good reason why I would need to install vistas bootloader after simply shrinking the partition? It hasn't changed order in the partitions. | 12:59 |
| ljsoftnet | ssd1 it didn't | 12:59 |
| Draco_ | ok thanks | 12:59 |
| SliderMan | kravlin , thanks alot | 12:59 |
| === Guest79732 is now known as mk-d | ||
| Drknezz | JosefAssad: Trial and error, i dont know for sure | 12:59 |
| ssd1 | ljsoftnet: and where is the problem ? what doesnt work ? booting Linux of Windows ? | 13:00 |
| kravlin | SliderMan : liberal use of google is amazing. | 13:00 |
| JosefAssad | Drknezz: Hmm, alright. Thank you, I appreciate your time. I'll see how Vistas bootloader gets reinstalled | 13:00 |
| === Draco_ is now known as DracoJesi | ||
| Drknezz | JosefAssad: Vista and 7's bootloaders are messy when grub is installed | 13:00 |
| SliderMan | kravlin i do use google sometimes :P | 13:00 |
| Drknezz | Actually, no MS OS install if i plug the GRUB-equipped HD on | 13:00 |
| JosefAssad | Drknezz: Didn't act funny when I installed ubuntu on this first time around... but yeah, I see they are. | 13:01 |
| Drknezz | JosefAssad: ;) Install Vista's bootloader and then install grub's one | 13:01 |
| ljsoftnet | i don't have problems in booting from windows or linux, its just that it takes too long to show the boot loader on booting grub | 13:01 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: try pressing ESC | 13:01 |
| palmje | JosefAssad: the windows bootloader is always intalled in the mbr or the drive it is installed on, but you should be able to install grub over that and then just have grub point to the windows install and use that to boot into windows | 13:02 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: i'm interested in what happened too. | 13:02 |
| ssd1 | i want nice desktop xD | 13:02 |
| Drknezz | ssd1: Compiz! ??? | 13:02 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: the countdown's too long? | 13:02 |
| ljsoftnet | Drknezz i'l try that, i'l wait for ssd1 reply | 13:02 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: or is it the period before that that takes too long? | 13:02 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: if you dont want to mess up config files, just press ESC at boot | 13:02 |
| ljsoftnet | kravlin yes, thats what i mean | 13:02 |
| ssd1 | ljsoftnet: i am thinking -_- | 13:02 |
| RassBariaw | VirtualBox fails to recognize a 64 bit CPU | 13:03 |
| kravlin | Drknezz: compiz and WOW apperently have problems. we've discussed that. | 13:03 |
| ssd1 | Drknezz: compiz suc...k | 13:03 |
| RassBariaw | can anyone help? | 13:03 |
| captainc | Looking for recommendations for a video card. I'd like to have compiz running with max quality. Are ATI cards well supported now with AIGLX and default installs? or do they still need XGL? | 13:03 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: if you want a quick solution that messes up config files, PM meh xD | 13:03 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: which of the two? | 13:03 |
| RassBariaw | noone responds in #vbox | 13:03 |
| Drknezz | AIGLX SUCKS ON ATI | 13:03 |
| Drknezz | lol | 13:03 |

| Drknezz | nVidia pwns | 13:03 |
| palmje | RassBariaw: virtualbox should run on a 64bit CPU, but it is unable to run a 64bit host | 13:03 |
| ljsoftnet | Drknezz ok | 13:03 |
| JosefAssad | palmje: I'll just see if the discs I got with the PC fix anything. After that, I can probably manage grub from the livecd, or add linux and bsd from the windows bootloader | 13:04 |
| captainc | Drknezz: so go with nvidia? | 13:04 |
| ljsoftnet | i'll restart now | 13:04 |
| Mavrik- | palmje, virtualbox can run 64bit host. | 13:04 |
| ssd1 | JosefAssad: i cant point grub to load BSD x( | 13:04 |
| Drknezz | palmje: nice coding, ho couldn't u make a 64bit module? | 13:04 |
| Mavrik- | RassBariaw, do you have a processor that supports virtualization extensions? | 13:04 |
| kravlin | Drknezz: what's lj's complaint? | 13:04 |
| Drknezz | captainc: i have a 9500GT 512 MB | 13:04 |
| Drknezz | :/ | 13:04 |
| RassBariaw | Mavrik-: does a quad core Xeon support virtualization? | 13:05 |
| Drknezz | kravlin: timeout seems to be really-long for GURB | 13:05 |
| Mavrik- | RassBariaw, yes. | 13:05 |
| Mavrik- | Enable VTx then. | 13:05 |
| JosefAssad | ssd1: I'm just thinking defensive. Getting in to linux via the windows bootloader will allow me to stick grub back | 13:05 |
| RassBariaw | Mavrik-: how do I do that? | 13:05 |
| kravlin | Drknezz: so just a simple fix in the grub config? | 13:05 |
| Drknezz | karvlin: maybe | 13:05 |
| palmje | Mavrik-: that must be a really new feature - I tried and looked into it about 2 months ago and it couldn't | 13:06 |
| Mavrik- | palmje, it certanly could do it two months ago | 13:06 |
| Drknezz | kravlin: unless there's something else that controls that | 13:06 |
| JosefAssad | ssd1: oh, you said you can't get GRUB to load bsd.... sorry. I haven't gotten that far yet | 13:06 |
| Mavrik- | it could probably do it a year ago. | 13:06 |
| Mavrik- | It even got support to run 64-bit guests on 32-bit hosts | 13:06 |
| Drknezz | JosefAssad: it should be easy, BSD has kernel files like Linux | 13:06 |
| kravlin | Drknezz: that's how i fixed it before i had a computer running two oses. | 13:06 |
| ssd1 | JosefAssad: yea ant BSDs BTX loader is bugged x( | 13:06 |
| Mavrik- | RassBariaw, first you check if you have VTx enabled in BIOS. | 13:07 |
| Drknezz | kravlin: yeah, but, idk if he/she wants somthing else | 13:07 |
| Mavrik- | then you set the option in VM properties. | 13:07 |
| RassBariaw | Mavrik-: how do I do that? | 13:07 |
| palmje | Mavrik-: ok - well everything I found said it couldn't and it certainly made all 64bit OSes I installed crash | 13:07 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: can you clearly outline your problem? | 13:07 |
| RassBariaw | newbie here | 13:07 |
| Drknezz | RassBariaw: Press DEL on boot | 13:08 |
| illovae | yo o/ | 13:08 |
| RassBariaw | ok | 13:08 |
| Drknezz | RassBariaw: and look for advanced options | 13:08 |
| RassBariaw | then...? | 13:08 |
| RassBariaw | ok.... | 13:08 |
| Mavrik- | palmje, well you do need VTx/AMD-V capable processor for that | 13:08 |
| Mavrik- | RassBariaw, the option is right there on first option screen for VM | 13:08 |
| Drknezz | RassBariaw: im not an intel fanboy, but it shoudl be around there | 13:08 |
| ljsoftnet | kravlin it takes a while to load the grub boot loader, thats all | 13:08 |
| Mavrik- | look around a little. | 13:08 |
| Drknezz | :p | 13:09 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: so the countdown is too long? | 13:09 |
| ljsoftnet | kravlin it use to just automatically display a list of OS's | 13:09 |
| SliderMan | kravlin should i use the sources file he gave him in the forum thread? | 13:09 |
| ljsoftnet | kravlin yeah it tool ong | 13:09 |
| RassBariaw | Mavrik-: reboot, Del, advanced options, then look for VM | 13:09 |
| ljsoftnet | kravlin yeah its too long | 13:09 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 13:09 |
| RassBariaw | Drknezz: thank you both | 13:10 |
| RassBariaw | I will return and report in a few | 13:10 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: and look for a "timeout" line | 13:10 |
| palmje | Mavrik-: i assume thats for 64bit in 32bit, but I was trying 64bit in 64bit (Intel Core2 Duo T9300)... | 13:10 |
| Drknezz | RassBariaw: np | 13:10 |
| ljsoftnet | Drknezz wait | 13:10 |
| Drknezz | ljsoftnet: OkZ! | 13:10 |

| Mavrik- | palmje, hmm, I ran Vista 64 and 64-bit linux on T9300 without problems on VBox | 13:11 |
| Mavrik- | on Vista host though | 13:11 |
| Drknezz | Nasra, right click them and select "move" | 13:11 |
| kravlin | ljsoftnet: your answer may be in /boot/grub/menu.lst. it's only writeable through su so you'll have to use sudo but you it's fairly explanitory. | 13:11 |
| Mavrik- | palmje, I did experience heavy crashes with BSDs though | 13:11 |

| ljsoftnet | Drknezz before grub is loaded | 13:14 |
| Kevsan | ssd1: Uhm newest, 1.1.18 | 13:14 |

| perlmonkey | palmje: I think I found the cause of my sound prob, alsamixer is showing the wrong sound device (i have two soundcards) | 13:27 |
| Drknezz | Mion: why VM? | 13:27 |
| Drknezz | VIM?* | 13:27 |
| Nasra | Drknezz: okay...so time to experiment...and thanks alot again..... | 13:27 |
| andy_ | no repairs,just want xp to load as default since im not the only one using my pc.. | 13:27 |
| perlmonkey | how do you switch sound device in alsamixer? | 13:27 |
| Drknezz | Nasra: np! | 13:27 |
| Drknezz | :D | 13:27 |
| Mion | andy_: title Wintendo; rootnoverify (hdx,y); chainloader +1 | 13:27 |
| palmje | perlmonkey: I always do, but I sometimes forget and then end up remembering when i get a problem... | 13:27 |
| ssd1 | andy_: its easy to do via startupmanager | 13:27 |
| perlmonkey | oh | 13:27 |
| Drknezz | andy_: listing order is controlled in there | 13:27 |
| palmje | perlmonkey: then try alsamixer -c 1 | 13:27 |
| andy_ | ok..i see it.. | 13:27 |
| perlmonkey | thanks | 13:27 |
| Drknezz | Mion: lol, you really are a juky | 13:28 |
| Drknezz | xD | 13:28 |
| Mion | andy_: hdx,y being the partion XP is on, zero indexed | 13:28 |
| Drknezz | junky* | 13:28 |
| him89 | Anyone here knows if ubuntu works with the Intel x4500MHD? | 13:29 |
| perlmonkey | as soon as I quit alsamixer its back to the wrong sound device, seems system is using wrong device... how to change? | 13:29 |
| Mion | andy_: for loading xp as default, just change the 'default' field to the XP entry in the menu.lst | 13:29 |
| Mion | andy_: the numbering starts at 0 | 13:29 |
| Drknezz | him89: it's really probable | 13:29 |
| perlmonkey | how to change sound card in system? | 13:29 |
| ssd1 | perlmonkey: open case and change it | 13:29 |
| Mion | andy_: so if XP is the 5.th entry, then 'default 4' | 13:29 |
| him89 | Drknezz, i see reports of people telling no | 13:29 |
| Drknezz | him89: but i kind hate intel, so icant tell for sure | 13:29 |
| him89 | i am a linux expert but just asked before i get a new laptop | 13:30 |
| andy_ | ok thanks..got it.. | 13:30 |
| Drknezz | perlmonkey: system -> config -> sounds | 13:30 |
| ssd1 | him89: ah linux expert :D | 13:30 |
| perlmonkey | ssd1: not that simple, heres the thing..I installed a new soundcard and my mobo has onboard soundchip..system is using mobo and I want it to use PCI soundcard | 13:30 |
| Drknezz | him89: LOL | 13:30 |
| palmje | perlmonkey: using alsamixter -c 1 just looks at the second sound card - it doesn't configure it to be the default sound card | 13:30 |
| Drknezz | perlmonkey: i think that's controlled via BIOS | 13:30 |
| him89 | Drknezz, can be frustrating to get something to work when it does not work right | 13:30 |
| Drknezz | him98: write the device drivers :D | 13:31 |
| him89 | Drknezz, and if its not supported that will be worse | 13:31 |
| perlmonkey | Drknezz: I'm using xfce4, there is no sound->config-sounds.. is that same as Settings -> Settings Manager -> Sound? | 13:31 |
| him89 | perlmonkey, yes thats it | 13:31 |
| perlmonkey | thanks | 13:31 |
| kravlin | perlmonkey: disable the onboard sound in your BIOS. | 13:31 |
| perlmonkey | ok | 13:31 |
| Drknezz | perlmonkey: i think so | 13:31 |
| perlmonkey | thanks guys | 13:31 |

| Wolo | Hiya. Could someone please tell me how to change my default desktop back to Gnome from KDE please? I'm on Intrepid. Research online tells me to press F10 at the KDE login but that doesn't do anything, and when I choose to select a Gnome session instead there's no option to switch back. Thanks loads for any help! :> | 13:32 |
| annaimkonki | wow | 13:32 |
| him89 | Wolo log out first | 13:33 |
| him89 | and then at the GNome login screen choose KDE | 13:33 |

| him89 | change that to GNome | 13:34 |
| annaimkonki | my youtube is not working now | 13:35 |
| Wolo | yeah, I see that, that allows me to choose default, gnome, kde, secu remote or failsafe. I can select gnome and log in. But then it still defaults to KDE. I want it to default to Gnome. | 13:35 |
| kravlin | oh good. the actual tech support's coming back. now i get to be a newbie again. | 13:35 |
| annaimkonki | sound that is | 13:35 |
| him89 | Wolo, what does default log into? | 13:35 |
| annaimkonki | thats pretty cool | 13:36 |
| Wolo | Ah! It takes me into Gnome. :> Doh. Spose I just need to change the login and bootup themes back to non KDE ones? | 13:36 |

| Varath | Hello everyone. Is there a dutch channel ? | 14:42 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: uhm, i don't get it. you see, the thing here is that clamd doesn't really run as root (even if you start "clamdscan" with sudo, it's only really talking to the daemon - and the daemon runs as "clamav", not as root). so it won't be able to scan certain files that aren't readable by the clamav user. but these directories you're trying to scan seem to be readable by everyone (r-x), so that "shouldn't" be causing it | 14:42 |

| clearscreen | Igramul: set it to normal/extra to make sure you're actually using the compiz window manager, and then manually disable the stuff you dont want | 14:43 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: unless perhaps there actually *is* a virus in those files, and clam is trying to *write* to them to eradicate it - in that case, it can't, because it doesn't have *write* permissions | 14:43 |

| mrwes | LjL, I really just want clamd to monitor my samba share, but I don't see where in the clamd.conf file to set that | 14:46 |
| clearscreen | eXgame: what graphics drivers are you using | 14:46 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: no, i think it only really sits there waiting for clients (like clamdscan) to give it instructions | 14:47 |
| ubuntu_is_dabest | aw | 14:47 |
| mrwes | ahh | 14:47 |
| eXgame | clearscreen, radeon x1650xt :) | 14:47 |
| clearscreen | eXgame: thats not what I asked :P | 14:47 |
| eXgame | oh | 14:47 |
| ubuntu_is_dabest | so, clamuko or samba-vscan is the solution, i read on https://wiki.clamav.net/Main/ClamAndRealTimeScanning | 14:47 |
| ubuntu_is_dabest | but, as i read deeper inside, it requires us to recompile the kernel | 14:48 |
| ubuntu_is_dabest | i don't even know how to compile a package source | 14:48 |
| eXgame | clearscreen, explain me what are you talking about :) | 14:48 |
| LjL | mrwes: i get the feeling that clamd never really does anything unless instructed... so if that's true, then you tell it which directory to scan simply by running clamdscan on it | 14:49 |
| him89 | eXgame, he wants to know the drivers that you are using | 14:49 |
| him89 | it should be ATI probably | 14:49 |
| eXgame | Yes ATI | 14:49 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: uhm, i'm pretty convinced it should be doable with inotify as well | 14:49 |
| * Mion can't understand why people use clam, when there are better anti-virus softwares out there, that actually adds some protection, unlike clam | 14:49 | |

| Marsjanin | Anyone can help me? My Ubuntu cannot play MPC files anymore. I got no idea, why. All the codecs and plugins seem to be installed, I even reinstalled them and rebooted machine, and still nothing. :( Amarok screams, there's no codecs in system. | 14:50 |

| eXgame | clearscreen, http://pastebin.com/m10135401 | 14:50 |
| mrwes | LjL, it's really setup for user level scanning via clamdscan | 14:50 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: ah, i see what that page says. basically, if you want on-access scan AND preventing access if a virus is found, then you need to do very weird stuff. but if you're contect with DETECTING viruses on access, then there should be some inotify-based solution | 14:50 |
| LjL | mrwes: it looks that way to me | 14:50 |
| mrwes | LjL, same here | 14:50 |
| clearscreen | eXgame: interesting, try 'sudo apt-get install xgl-server' | 14:51 |
| eXgame | cannot found packet :) | 14:51 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: still, while i believe it should be possible, i don't see any inotify-based solution in the repos | 14:51 |
| ubuntu_is_dabest | i'm sorry, but i don't understand about inotify, is there a page where i can read about it? | 14:52 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: you could install something like "incron" (or another inotify handler), and configure it to run clamdscan on each file that gets accessed (same for mrwes). again, though, that wouldn't *prevent* access to an infected file, but it'd only *tell* you it's infected | 14:52 |
| Slange | clearscreen: i tried delete line (in fstab) about this partition, but it didnt help | 14:53 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: inotify is just a mechanism in the linux kernel for programs to "subscribe" to an information service telling them whether some files are ever touched | 14:53 |
| ubuntu_is_dabest | i see | 14:53 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: a program that uses inotify can be informed in real time of changes on the filesystem | 14:53 |
| eXgame | clearscreen, ok i installed it and whats now? | 14:53 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: there are several packages in the repositories that use inotify, one of them is "incron", but if you do "apt-cache search inotify" (also "apt-cache search dnotify") you'll find many more | 14:54 |
| clearscreen | eXgame: 'wget http://blogage.de/files/9124/download -O compiz-check && chmod +x compiz-check && ./compiz-check | 14:54 |
| ljsoftnet | how do i uninstall packages dependencies of a .deb file? | 14:54 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: i don't see a package that's *specifically* intended to make inotify work with clam for real-time scanning, but it should be doable with any generic inotify daemon (like "incron") if configured appropriately | 14:54 |
| LjL | ubuntu_is_dabest: mind... it'll probably be very slow, too :( | 14:54 |

| DexterF | clearscreen: that's precisely what I did: alt-ctrl-f1, stop X, run installer from NVidia. now here is where things got messy. I ran the installer, it compiled the module fine, said "module is ok", I had it rewrite the conf, rebooted, and then X crashed. said "API mismatch, module is 180.44, but driver is 76.xy". I never deliberately installed any legacy driver. no idea where it found that. the funny thing: once I was there if I | 15:19 |

| ubuntu_is_dabest | doesn't work | 15:44 |
| LjL | new2ubuntu: no. "basic" is configuring wireless on a card that's *supported* in the first place. making a card that's *not* supported by ubuntu work is hardly basic | 15:44 |

| new2ubuntu | s3r3n1t7: well then.. why it no worky??? | 15:56 |
| s3r3n1t7 | new2ubuntu, have you tried to install the drivers in hardware drivers? | 15:56 |
| new2ubuntu | no | 15:56 |
| s3r3n1t7 | new2ubuntu, and which version do you have? | 15:56 |
| istvan | again, the problem is that when i boot i see the loading bar, then after that i get asked for password and usernamer in a shell/command prompt/bash | 15:56 |
| doleyb | s3r3n1t7: You are using jaunty. This channel is not jaunty. It misleads people to say things work, without first telling them you use other version. | 15:56 |
| rafaweborama | hi people | 15:56 |
| LjL | new2ubuntu, doleyb: there's also this forum thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1112464 but i clearly cannot guarantee anything about it | 15:56 |
| new2ubuntu | s3r3n1t7: no that's what i need to do, i need to find the drivers and install em and hope. | 15:57 |
| g0tcha | hey guys, when i use the desktop interface and try to configure the network to make it static, it has it listed as em0, when i try to edit /etc/network/interfaces i only see "auto lo" not em0, why is that? | 15:57 |
| new2ubuntu | you guys think this will be fixed with the new update?? | 15:57 |
| s3r3n1t7 | doleyb, the latest madwifi drivers are what make them work. Give him the HAL from that and it should work just fine. | 15:57 |

| istvan | wireshark | 16:14 |
| LjL | mrwes: i don't know. look, how about you just put a >> redirect to some file in /tmp or something, right into the clamdscan command line in incron | 16:15 |
| istvan | wireshark is a really good packet sniffer | 16:15 |
| LjL | mrwes: (and use -v for verbose) | 16:15 |
| moller_ | istvan: Can it focus on 1 app, like firefox? So it would only record packets from firefox? | 16:15 |

| aar | jee-kang, in order to hybernate to RAM you normally need a swap space, so the system has enough space to save an image file it can read when resuming. the error message "not enough space" when hybernating is usually a symptom that you don't have enough memory to save that image file (which can often be solved by creatin / increasing the swap space). | 17:53 |

| eseven73 | PerryArmstrong, upgrades are generally bad, especially with betas, it's better to do a reinstall, but back up all your data first if you do | 17:55 |
| m1dlg | how do I make my user ID default admin of mount, umount, propertys etc read write etc | 17:55 |
| aar | ktebit, in console, use the option -a to show all files (e.g. ls -a). that will show hidden files as well. | 17:55 |

| aar | mgco, i've never come across anything of the sort (and I still can't quite understand how your PC can detect an infection even before botting into a system). anyway, if you're really concerned, wipe the hard drive and start from scratch. you might want to get someone to have a look at it first though (in case it can be saved). | 18:03 |

| aar | mgco, bot virus detection is a misnomer. will just stop anything writing to the boot sector, virus or not. It's not a virus scanner in reality. | 18:05 |
| thiebaude | PerryArmstrong: yea, i can only use 2.6.24-24 generic kernel on 9.04 | 18:05 |
| Krine11 | ok, how about downloading a older version? | 18:05 |

| Rovanion | Good day gents, how do I get my ethernet card working in ubuntu... The interesting thing is that it works on the live cd but not when the system is actually installed | 18:37 |

| mgco | xcv: somebody else did on another external optical drive. i've raised this issue before in the chatroom: i have a lacie external dvd writer and no luck on getting to boot on it. | 18:55 |
| ultraj6 | except all the packets going into the hub are sent out all the ports | 18:55 |
| afd3dea | Dreamglider, Ah... Well then if you want to ssh to your external IP forward different ports to different machines? So yourip:1234 is ssh to machine 1, yourip:1235 is ssh to machine 2? | 18:55 |
| kavity | Can anyone help me with problems with recording from a built-in laptop mic? | 18:55 |
| ultraj6 | a hub is like a port replicator | 18:55 |
| todd__ | aar: OK... what should I have other then a switch to allow this to work? | 18:55 |
| slinaber` | Hey. I have a wacom tablet that wacdump recognizes, but I don't seem to be able to get X to recognize it. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious...any ideas? | 18:55 |

| AciD | I installed 8.04 on my sasung NC10 and had no major problem. for 3 weeks now (approximatively), I can't suspend anymore. I checked the dmesg logs and spotted a possible error message regarding the "eviocgbit problem". I tried with another kernel, same pb. I tried deinstalling synaptics, still. Anyone got a solutino for this suspend pb on 8.04 ? | 18:55 |
| LjL | info lshw-gtk | solaar | 18:55 |
| LjL | !info lshw-gtk | solaar | 18:55 |
| ubottu | solaar: lshw-gtk (source: lshw): information about hardware configuration. In component universe, is optional. Version 02.13-2ubuntu1 (intrepid), package size 370 kB, installed size 1536 kB | 18:55 |
| Dreamglider | afd3dea, alright thank you. | 18:55 |
| aar | todd__, a switch is a physical connection in a network, used to redirect traffic. it prevents users from sniffing past it (unless you do what ultraj6 has described, which is technically speaking not passive sniffing). i'd recommend you read more about sniffing and man in the middle attacks in wikipedia to learn about how the system works | 18:55 |
| starcannon | kanlivelong ah I see, hmm, never tried to change the order of things, is metacity not needed for the login manager? | 18:56 |
| troy__ | troy_ sixkids | 18:56 |
| starcannon | I am looking for the lpia kernel package, does anyone know what repository to add to my sources list? | 18:56 |
| ultraj6 | aar is correct, it is not passive sniffing, you have to exploit a protocol | 18:56 |
| mgco | aar: i'm really sleepy now, i'll take your advice and see if i can have that clamav livecd run. i just don't know how yet. | 18:56 |

| mgco | thanks for the help aar xcv vigo bye for now | 18:56 |
| Dreamglider | can i start a gnome session via ssh ? (like VNC) | 18:57 |
| aar | mgco, good luck | 18:57 |
| RickZilla | So theoretically, if I back up the entire file system, I can restore everything after re-installing ubuntu? Including software packages, etc... | 18:57 |
| mgco | oh and jrib too. thanks all | 18:57 |
| xcv | mgco: yw, sorry couldn't help more | 18:57 |
| xlq | Dreamglider: I'm not sure exactly what you mean. | 18:57 |
| ultraj6 | if you back something up you can certainly restore it, unless you damage the backup | 18:57 |
| usser | Dreamglider, yea sure, just connect with -X switch, ie ssh -X -C servername | 18:58 |
| todd__ | aar: OK so this thing just dosent work, is there another tool I can use to get a network diagram of my network that does??? Or do I have to use windows for this? | 18:58 |
| xlq | Dreamglider: if you want to run graphical apps remotely, you can use X11 forwarding (if your local machine is Linux or a BSD). | 18:58 |
| rayne_ | The built in microphone on my laptop is not working, any help? | 18:58 |
| usser | Dreamglider, once logged in, run gnome-session | 18:58 |
| aar | RickZilla, correct, as long as you're restoring to the same partition | 18:58 |
| arnducky | Hey folks, is there a way to force the gui (kde) Grub conf tool to scan for existing installs of Ubuntu (exact same kernel) on partitions other than where it is hosted and properly add them to the menu.1st list? | 18:58 |
| xlq | Dreamglider: if your local machine is a Windows machine, you can use VNC, although it's not very fast over the Internet. | 18:59 |
| aar | todd__, as ultraj6 has described, you need to do a man in the middle attack for what you want (be it in linux or in windows). sniffing will not work in your case, because it will only take you to the nearest switch. | 18:59 |
| W8TAH | how realistic is it to replace a windows 2003 domain (with authentication etc) and windows XP workstations with linux across the board? | 18:59 |
| xlq | Dreamglider: Either way (ssh -X or VNC) you can run Gnome apps, including the Gnome panel, but you can't run a window manager remotely using ssh -X | 18:59 |
| xlq | Dreamglider: sorry, I'm going on a bit | 19:00 |
| arnducky | ....Or any other "safe"script to manage grub would be nice. It's in my MBR and I don't want to mess up the entries already pointing to other OSes | 19:00 |
| usser | W8TAH, depends on what you do with the domain, people have done that, there are solutions for centralized username database, logons etc, group policies are still lacking though | 19:00 |
| vigo | W8TAH: That is kinda off-topic, takes an opinion to answer that. | 19:00 |
| starcannon | rayne_ : System>Preferences>Sound set capture to ALSA, and set the Defalut Mixer to the correct device; restart the program you want to use, mess with switches in the Volume Applet (upper right corner) until you get the right combination (at least this is how I deal with Laptop Microphones) | 19:00 |
| todd__ | aar: NOT TRUE... I have been dong network diagrams on windows for a while now, and thoes tools work out of the box... is there something in linux that will work out of the box as well??? | 19:00 |
| W8TAH | usser thanks | 19:00 |

| aar | todd__, i've tried to describe why it's not working. i can assure you it won't work in linux, windows or a mac. if you're comfortable with out-of -the-box products you might be better of using windows | 19:01 |

| H_M-Ubuntu | I'm setting up my /etc/fstab configuration to allow my drives to mount automatically on boot, I need to know what filesystem I should supply for my NTFS partitions. The partitions show up as "fuseblk" in system monitor, but i'm not sure if that is what I should say. | 19:23 |

| Brucevdk | Hi, I'm using an application that uses libunique to only start up one instance. When the second instance is started the window for the current instance gets the URGENT window manager hint set, however, it won't get focused (in the window list it'll just colorize). I'm using Metacity. Anybody know why? | 19:23 |
| H_M-Ubuntu | Can anyone tell me what I should say for it? | 19:23 |
| todd__ | J-_: sorry about that... it slipped out will not happen again | 19:23 |
| Manny2218 | hmm so what one should i format it as? | 19:23 |
| xlq | H_M-Ubuntu: you could either use 'auto' (automatically detect), or iirc it's ntfs-3g | 19:23 |
| Zopiac | running 2 monitors on a GeForce video card, and the monitor positions are set up correctly in the Nvidia Settings window, but I can't move my mouse from my left to my right monitor, only off the far side of the left to get to the far side of the right. anyone have a solution (if you can follow this) ? | 19:23 |
| todd__ | but really this sucks... can someone give me a good reason not to just say screw it, I'll just reboot my machine every 3 minutes, and go back to windows??? | 19:23 |
| xlq | H_M-Ubuntu: I use ntfs-3g as the type, in my fstab, and it shows up as 'fuseblk' | 19:24 |
| H_M-Ubuntu | Yeah i'm using auto for my flash drives... I figure auto will work anyway. Is there any down side to using auto? | 19:24 |

| jeeaar | i dont think so, it was working fine before i installed ubuntu | 19:48 |
| aar | acr0nym, is the mouse plugged in before you boot, or do you plug it in once the system has booted? | 19:48 |
| nillo | Dreamglider: No UI for "workspace names" | 19:48 |

| poppler | jeeaar: if the bios doesn't see it that is. check that it's well power from the MB is well plugged in the optical drive | 19:48 |
| poppler | *powered | 19:49 |
| sheepo39 | hmmmm | 19:49 |
| aar | acr0nym, try having it plugged in before booting, so the device gets properly detected | 19:49 |

| Brucevdk | nillo: are you running Compiz or Metacity? | 19:51 |
| Brucevdk | bonez46: like the CPU socket? | 19:51 |

| Ozwaldca | can some give me hand to restore my sound? i tried doing an upgrade to the latest alsa drivers | 19:51 |

| aar | jimmy5410, have a look at this URL: http://www.linux-live.org/?howtos (persistent changes section) | 19:52 |
| bonez46 | Brucevdk: yes.. the CPU socket. | 19:52 |
| Brucevdk | nillo: might have to do with that then (Compiz is default), for metacity you can even do it through gconf-editor (the names are located at /apps/metacity/workspace_names | 19:52 |
| shubbar | Ginger, when i upgraded to 8.10 i faced trouble with the video card ... so i did a fresh install to 8.04, after alot of thinking | 19:52 |

| acr0nym | seems like something is interfering with it, maybe my network or some program that started | 19:53 |
| Ozwaldca | does anyone know how to restore the ALSA sound to work after an upgrade? | 19:53 |
| nillo | Brucevdk: Let me make sure I have this straight. Compiz is the default WM for Ubuntu 8.10, so I should do what? | 19:53 |
| shubbar | Ginger, even when 9.04 is out, if you're not ready to try some bugs, wait a few months | 19:54 |
| nikitis | Ozwaldca, hda intel? | 19:54 |
| Ozwaldca | yes | 19:54 |
| Ginger | shubbar, alright. Sounds good. thanks | 19:54 |
| Ozwaldca | i tried updating to v1.0.19 | 19:54 |
| Ginger | Heh, its just finally time for another dual boot, Vista is driving me insane. | 19:54 |
| Ozwaldca | after a reboot it says there is no sound card installed | 19:54 |
| nikitis | Ozwaldca, only way i know is to go to alsa web page download driver/lib/utils and compile those three packages. | 19:54 |
| Ozwaldca | hehe i am quite new... i thought i tired it but obviioulsy it did not work | 19:55 |
| nikitis | Ozwaldca, linux has given up on those cards | 19:55 |
| Brucevdk | nillo: I don't know, I use Metacity. :-) Best bet is to Google around with the terms: compiz workspace names | 19:55 |

| SliderMan | how to setup grub? | 19:56 |
| Ozwaldca | argh the sounds works fin just the mic is buggered .. it is actually a SIgmatel HD 92XX card | 19:56 |
| nillo | Brucevdk: I will try that, but I'm really looking here for somebody that knows. I used to be able to do this directly. It doesn't make sense that I can't anymore. | 19:56 |
| acr0nym | jon23d, use sudo ap-get update to update your packet manager | 19:56 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, with a live disc, grub-install | 19:56 |
| acr0nym | you might have to add some sources depending on what you want | 19:56 |
| Ozwaldca | dont believe so | 19:56 |
| Brucevdk | nillo: well, maybe you used to be using Metacity? | 19:56 |
| poppler | SliderMan: config file in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 19:56 |
| nikitis | Ozwaldca, that | 19:57 |
| Ozwaldca | is there a way to revert back to v1.0.17? | 19:57 |
| nikitis | is not a hda intell | 19:57 |

| jon23d | acr0nym: sweet! ty | 19:57 |
| Wolo | jon23d: thanks :> | 19:57 |
| stealth- | Wolo: copy the files you want into your new home directory, then run the command: sudo chown yournewname:yournewname -R /home/yournewname | 19:57 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, Do you only have one harddrive with no other partitions? | 19:57 |
| shubbar | how do i add a service to startup? | 19:57 |
| Ozwaldca | i know that no the card but here are no drivers for the sigmatel card | 19:58 |

| Brucevdk | nillo: well, Ubuntu is a community distro (by the people, for the people), it's not a hive mind controlled by a single entity or something :-) The Compiz team was probably too busy trying to get more fancy effects then duplicate behavior from Metacity. | 20:01 |

| jimmy5410 | I need some help | 20:02 |
| nillo | Brucevdk: I won't argue that point with you. I understand. I just thought that Ubuntu tried to be a convenient OS, like Windows, and from a newbie perspective (like me) this change is confusing. | 20:02 |

| Brucevdk | nillo: when I switch to compiz (compiz --replace) the behavior of the workspace switcher applet changes to not being able to name workspaces (or even display them). Switching back to Metacity does allow me to do so. And then there's this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/94818 (not a bug perse, just one that shows the feature is not available when using Compiz) | 20:05 |
| Brucevdk | nillo: here's a more relevant bug report it seems: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libwnck/+bug/129152 | 20:06 |

| Excell | y/w Tyyr | 20:08 |
| Brucevdk | nillo: the problem with that latter report though is that they're mixing two issues in one report (labels and number of workspaces). It's best to move the name/labels discussion to the other (closed/invalid) bug report and reopen that. | 20:08 |
| Tyyr | later | 20:08 |

| LMJ | why the flash plugin works fine on my sea-monkey and not on Firefox on ubuntu 8.10 64bits | 20:18 |

| bonhoffer | Brucevdk, thanks | 20:18 |
| _mnemonic76 | My problem is that grub enumerates the disks differently after I have booted into ubuntu... so issuing the commands IN ubuntu to grub is wrong... | 20:18 |
| SliderMan | nikitis, thanks for helping. take your time. | 20:18 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, ok, i think i have everything and should warn that in case this does not work then it may be wise to have a LIVE Disc handy as you may not be able to boot if it doesn | 20:20 |

| nikitis | graingert, get yourself the cheapest model as far as ram/harddisk goes. Cause you can buy a runcore SSD that writes 2 times as fast and buy ram cheaper than dell sells | 20:38 |
| clearscreen | Durandal4: you can add it to your gnome session list | 20:38 |
| Brucevdk | bonhoffer: phew :-) | 20:38 |
| matt_keys | I don't have sound from Flash. I've tried all the tips I could find from searching Google and need some help troubleshooting what it is. | 20:38 |

| bonhoffer | Brucevdk, is there a lightweight drawing program to test this out in? | 20:39 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, grats, enjoy | 20:39 |
| bonhoffer | gimp might require custom configration | 20:39 |
| emma | Slart: this might be useful for you -- http://colas.nahaboo.net/mouse-wheel-scroll/ | 20:39 |
| SliderMan | nikitis, thanks. i was talking to someone else LOL | 20:39 |

| Slart | * Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 15:11:14 -0500 | 20:39 |
| Slart | The press releases, I believe, are scheduled for 2007. There's been alot of talk, though, in Mac circles about it. | 20:39 |
| Slart | Essentially, the concept is simple, but revolutionary. The iWheel is a disc shaped object that can be affixed to the bottom of any heavy object/platform. What happens is as follows: as a force is applied to the object, either by pulling or pushing it, the attached iWheel, whose circumference is made of rubber, begins to rotate as a result of the torque applied to it due to the traction of the rubber with the ground, while at the same time propping up the objec | 20:39 |
| FloodBot3 | Slart: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 20:39 |
| SliderMan | nikitis, i thoguth it was you. | 20:39 |
| \shaman | hi | 20:39 |
| Slart | The result is that the object to which it's affixed becomes significantly more mobile, because all friction of the object with the ground is eliminated, all the while the object is MOVED by the spinning iWheel which by itself imparts minimal friction on the axle--the metal rod that forms its axis. | 20:39 |
| Slart | bah.. so sorry again | 20:40 |
| Brucevdk | bonhoffer: Gimp or Inkscape I'd guess (I'd consider those light) :-) | 20:40 |
| SliderMan | someone unban him | 20:40 |
| clearscreen | Bot is lagging hard today :P | 20:40 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, shouldnt need that usb stick for booting anymore | 20:40 |
| matt_keys | If I click on System -> Preferences -> Sound, and hit the test buttons I hear the tone, but I don't hear anything when watching flash | 20:40 |
| Slart | I'll go sit in the "I can't use my mouse"-corner for a while | 20:40 |
| bonhoffer | Brucevdk, what is inkscape? | 20:40 |
| bonhoffer | (installing it right now) | 20:40 |
| SliderMan | nikitis its in my hand, not connected anymore. i wanted to have it for installtion in case something happen. | 20:40 |
| AgainstTheFlow | I get command not found when I run that command | 20:41 |
| Brucevdk | bonhoffer: vector graphics editor | 20:41 |
| SliderMan | nikitis, also ubuntu runs faster now. | 20:41 |
| bonhoffer | cool -- thanks | 20:41 |
| clearscreen | AgainstTheFlow: then you didnt type it in correctly | 20:41 |
| emma | Slart: there appears to be no way to adjust the scroll wheel except on a per app basis. There may be an app called iwheel that can do it for you but it's not in the Ubuntu repos, apparently. | 20:41 |
| bonhoffer | does your wacom mouse work? | 20:41 |
| Slart | emma: I'll take a look at it. Thanks for all the help | 20:41 |
| Brucevdk | bonhoffer: I'm not sure what a Wacom mouse is :-) I have a tablet | 20:41 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, in theory, you can use that stick again in case your MBR crashes and can no longer boot, but that is unlikely it will happen | 20:41 |
| Brucevdk | bonhoffer: like a touchscreen I mean | 20:41 |
| bonhoffer | Brucevdk, the mouse works on top of the tablet | 20:41 |
| emma | Slart: The link I posted above shows how to do it for a lot of different apps. It's a collection of various hacks. | 20:41 |
| bonhoffer | with the bamboo fun, but you answered my question | 20:42 |
| SliderMan | nikitis, this HD fails alot. you wont believe this. | 20:42 |

| AgainstTheFlow | I cut and paste it exactly as it shows in the error. I still et command not found | 20:43 |
| Ienorand | The manual page for "echo" speaks of --help as a valid argument, but when i try it it just echoes it... is there something I'm missing here or is this manual wrong? | 20:43 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, drives are supposed to be replaced on average after 5 years | 20:43 |
| nikitis | SliderMan, after that your data is threatened | 20:43 |

| alaz | kravlin: whoami does that nicely... :) | 20:59 |
| kravlin | alaz: in perl to fit conky. | 20:59 |
| Supersaiyan_IV | Creative1412, another reason to choose nvidia is because they have developed a vdpau codec tha enables hardware h264 and VC1 decoding in linux | 20:59 |

| Brucevdk | manzur: you can't specifically do this as a plugin either (you'd have to hack on Nautilus itself), see: http://live.gnome.org/Nautilus/Development However, there might be some people working on someting like this for Google's Summer of Code. | 21:06 |

| ActionParsnip | dman: but i guessed what he meant and fielded it. | 21:18 |
| judget_ | My same webcam is working in Hardy though | 21:18 |
| manzur | is that a project of your own, Brucevdk???? | 21:18 |

| Platypus-Man | how can I add 'play in rhythmbox' for folder right-click context menus? I'm using a keyboard that has laptop-style touchpad instead of a mouse, so drag-and-drop is impossible, and adding folders via 'import folder' in rhythmbox is also very slow | 21:19 |

| Slart | signorini1984: try using gnome partition editor | 21:29 |
| yup | how can i limit title's length in gnome ? | 21:29 |
| Slart | signorini1984: or gparted, as it is also called | 21:29 |
| Slart | yup: title of what? | 21:29 |
| signorini1984 | gnome partition editor doesn't have ntfs filesystem | 21:29 |
| coolmadmax | сто се буне кад се пише на другом језику! | 21:29 |
| kravlin | Acerone: don't actually go into the volume control, instead just right click the icon on the taskbar. | 21:29 |
| yup | title of an icon on gnome desktop | 21:29 |
| Acerone | kravlin: so what preferences did you go to then? Ill try yours | 21:29 |
| dman | LinuxRevolution: downloading places strain on the network. maybe you are just overloading it. | 21:29 |

| yup | i have a few icons on my desktop with very long titles, so i want to limit length of visible text of such titles | 21:31 |

| signorini1984 | ok Slart i have installed it,.....now???? | 21:31 |

| signorini1984 | ok | 21:31 |
| LinuxRevolution | :-/ | 21:31 |
| Slart | yup: I think there is a setting somewhere to make them use linebreaks a bit more aggressively.. not sure if there is an option to simply limit the length | 21:32 |
| signorini1984 | it works!!!!! thank u a lot!!!!!! | 21:32 |

| ubottu | AMD64 and EMT64 are fully supported architectures on Ubuntu. See http://tinyurl.com/3jkole and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amd64 for more information. | 21:45 |
| valjean | i selected to format no partitions, and to use the old root as root and the old home partition as /home | 21:46 |
| valjean | this will *not* wipe the home partition, right? everything there will stay the same? | 21:46 |
| ma3x | is there a ssh timeout option somewhere in ubuntu? where | 21:46 |
| Manny2218 | Hey, when ever I go to install Ubuntu into the partition i made for it, i get an error saying "The installer needs to commit changes to partition tables, but cannot do so because partitions on the following mount points could not be unmounted: /media/My\ BookBook" What do I do? | 21:48 |
| alaz | ma3x: probably a openssl thing. configure in /etc/ssh something | 21:48 |
| alaz | ma3x: wouldnt hurt reading man ssh either | 21:48 |
| ActionParsnip | valjean: i'd personally set / to be formatted, if you dont choose the home partition to be formatted it will be left but you can also set it to be mounted as /home at install time and fstab will be populated | 21:49 |
| valjean | Manny2218: are you trying to install ubuntu onto the Book? | 21:49 |
| valjean | ActionParsnip: if i'm going to format /, would you recommend switching to ext4? | 21:50 |
| Manny2218 | My Book is the name of my hard drive | 21:50 |
| ActionParsnip | valjean: i've not used it but ive heard stuff about data loss, but others say its ok | 21:50 |
| Manny2218 | i made a partition in ext3 format and a swap partition for ubuntu | 21:50 |
| alaz | ma3x: specify ConnectTimeout= in /etc/ssh/ssh_config | 21:50 |
| Manny2218 | so what should I do? | 21:51 |
| eseven73 | valberg, the only bad thing I see with ext4, it seems a lot of system rescue cd's and other rescue type utilities can't deal with ext4 yet | 21:51 |
| valjean | ActionParsnip: so whether i choose to mount it as home at install or a ignore it there and edit fstab later will not make a difference on itùs being formatted? | 21:52 |
| Nexos | eseven73: well, you can always mount it as ext3 (provided you don't use extents) IIRC | 21:52 |
| Manny2218 | Valjean | 21:53 |
| valjean | Manny2218: i thought "My Book" was an external hard drive, but it sounds like youùre saying itùs external | 21:53 |
| ActionParsnip | valjean: as long as you do not tick format. the data will be untouched but the partition will be mounted and setup in /etc/fstab | 21:53 |
| Manny2218 | it is an external hard drive | 21:53 |
| nibblyn | apt-get update -> Ign http://archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Translation-en_US ?? Why this? | 21:53 |

| valjean | are there other opinions on ext4 in here (same or different)? | 21:57 |
| kravlin | so nobody in #svn will help me with svn can someone here help? | 21:57 |
| gene2 | Roasted: udev | 21:58 |
| valjean | Manny2218: it can't change the partition tables while it's mounted, i think, so you need to unmount it first... am i right in thinking you're installing ubuntu from a cd from within windows? | 21:59 |
| Roasted | gene2 - How would I do that considering that the system in question has no OS. I'm trying to push an image to it but the system reads the SATA drive as /dev/sda... | 21:59 |
| alaz | Is zfs getting implemented into the linux kernel soon? | 21:59 |
| gene2 | Roasted: sorry mis-understood your question | 21:59 |
| Ienorand | valjean: Have used it so far on a usb install, no problems, but then again no extensive proking done | 21:59 |
| gene2 | Roasted: so you connect the drive to the same port and it detects it as /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sda | 21:59 |
| Manny2218 | Valjean - I already have windows installed, I am running the 8.04 Live CD at the moment | 21:59 |
| Roasted | gene2 - yes, the first 80gb drive reads as /dev/sdb and the imaging works. But I put in the other 80gb SATA drive, which is of a different make/model, but its still a SATA drive in the saem port, and it reads /dev/sda and my imaging process errors out as a result, something about an invalid partition table | 22:00 |

| Roasted | gene2 - Maybe I'm just stuck then. These hard drives are wiped, and the image is on my laptop. My laptop acts as the image server. I network boot the HP desktop in question to my laptop and my laptop sees it and will push the image down. But if I use the secondary drive I had laying around to push the image to it, it errors out and says something about /dev/sda, to where /dev/sdb is what the original drive said, and that drive works. | 22:02 |
| Roasted | That's why I'm confused. | 22:02 |
| emoXodus | can i get some help with ndiswrapper? | 22:02 |
| Manny2218 | okay Valjean - i unmounted it, i'm going to try installing again | 22:02 |
| gene2 | Roasted: so you PXE boot? This imager is servered over network? | 22:03 |
| Ienorand | Manny2218: sudo umount /media/My\ BookBook | 22:03 |
| Roasted | gene2 - yes, I am PXE booting. This imager works over the network, but if I'm doing 1 computer I can just plug in a patch cable to each computer and image it without going over the full blown network. | 22:03 |
| Manny2218 | i unmounted it in GParted | 22:04 |
| valjean | Manny2218: ok | 22:04 |
| Manny2218 | i'm going to try to install again | 22:04 |
| Ienorand | Manny2218: And it's still giving errors? | 22:04 |
| kantor | hi | 22:04 |
| Manny2218 | I haven't tried installing after unmounting yet | 22:04 |
| gene2 | Roasted: I understand, so your imager has everything, DHCP, PXE, tftp. got it, this imager is based on Ubuntu and it is booting a linux kernel? | 22:04 |
| Roasted | gene2 - yes, I've been using this image software at work for quite some time, so I'm very familiar with how it works and I've had no problems with it. This it the first time I've had a weird issue like this. I'm trying to work out every scenario possible so I know what can resolve each conflict because we are getting in several hundred computers this summer so I have to be on my game if any errors come about. | 22:05 |

| Manny2218 | so far no errors | 22:07 |
| Manny2218 | its working! thanks! | 22:07 |
| Roasted | gene2 - No, not that I know of. You see, on my laptop (server) I have a web based gui frontend to manage everything. Once I select deploy image to the computer, my laptop will "Wake On LAN" and boot the HP desktop computer. At that point, once I hit F12 to PXE boot the desktop, the situation is completely otu of my hands and the imager just takes over. | 22:07 |

| kantor | Are the following functionalities useful for a network traffic generator program ? You can specify a port range like 50-100, or 4567-7899 . . . and the program could send the packets to that ports in three ways: randomly in that range or increasingly (eg. if the range is 5-10 then 5, 6, 7 . . .) or decreasingly. My question is it is useful the increasing and decreasing functionality ? it is not enough the random one ? | 22:07 |

| Roasted | gene2 - When the client computer getting imaged is in the process of preparing for the imaging process to start, it'll display on a dos looking screen what it is doing. I cannot type or do anything, it's simply just telling me what it's doing. It gets to the point where it says something about an invalid partition table on /dev/sda and it reboots 60 seconds later. When I imaged the computer with the other SATA drive, I noticed when i | 22:09 |
| Roasted | t was "Looking for hard drives" it found /dev/sdb, which is why I thought there might be a name conflict but I had no idea how to resolve it. | 22:09 |

| ech0s7 | hi | 22:11 |
| ech0s7 | there is an issue for ctrl+alt+backspace for xorg 1.6 ? | 22:11 |
| Roadrunner_ | no idea shroom | 22:11 |
| gene2 | Roasted: I see, the way the kernel should be detecting these are in order they are plugged in. This is a SATA drive and it doesn't have any of that primary/second BS like PATA has, so it should not be detecting the drive as a different device if it's plugged into the same port. | 22:11 |
| Stupendoussteve | RedMushroom: You're probably missing dev packages. Any reason you're not using the ubuntu package to install xchat? | 22:11 |
| valjean | Manny2218: np; yay | 22:11 |
| bencrisford | emoXodus, what is the problem? does ubuntu detect it? | 22:11 |
| Ienorand | ech0s7: Disable by default... | 22:11 |
| emoXodus | bencrisford, no it doesnt | 22:11 |
| pale | anyone had an idea how to speedup suspend and hibernate | 22:12 |
| ech0s7 | Ienorand: how it's possible to enable ? | 22:12 |
| Ienorand | !dontzap | 22:12 |
| ubottu | To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable » | 22:12 |
| Roasted | gene2 - Thats what I thought. I didn't change the port on the motherboard, Is imply just unplugged one SATA and plugged in another. I booted up to GParted and sure enough GParted was finding this drive as sda, which I would THINK is right, so I have no idea why the other drive was picked up as SDB in the process, but thats how I imaged it | 22:12 |
| crdlb | ech0s7: you really should be asking this in #ubuntu+1 | 22:12 |
| emoXodus | bencrisford, someone told me to use ndiswrapper but idk how to use it | 22:12 |
| infomomo | hey guys, is DIA the only replacement for VISIO on linux ??? it is good and everything, but is there another alternative? | 22:12 |
| bencrisford | emoXodus: try downloading the drivers from the trendnet site, ill get you the a link | 22:12 |
| bencrisford | emoXodus: http://www.trendnet.com/langen/asp/download_manager/list_subcategory.asp?subtype_id=976 | 22:13 |
| emoXodus | bencrisford, i already have the drivers | 22:13 |
| RedMushroom | Stupendoussteve: i wasn't aware there was a ubuntu install package. you mind telling me where i might find that? | 22:13 |
| gene2 | Roasted: /dev/sda and /dev/sdb is wierd. I would check on the client how the BIOS is detecting the drive and if in fact this imager does not care about the condition of the drive. ex: if the drive has a previous partion or something like that, maybe it would be a good idea to dd /dev/zero for a few MBs onto this drive. | 22:13 |
| bencrisford | emoXodus, ah... | 22:13 |
| Ienorand | ech0s7: There is also the Alt+PrntScrn+K command which is supposed to be similar (they are not exactly the same though) | 22:13 |
| TADS | wonder if anyone can help me out im trying to install vbox-2.1 im getting a error with kernel error log is http://tadsnet.org/erorlog.txt | 22:13 |
| bencrisford | what were you saying about the ndiswrapper? | 22:13 |
| emoXodus | bencrisford, theres some error when i try to configure it | 22:13 |
| emoXodus | bencrisford, how do you run ndiswrapper? | 22:13 |
| Stupendoussteve | RedMushroom: In the Applications Menu, "Add/Remove Programs" search for Xchat. If you don't want Xchat-gnome, change the pulldown to "All available applications" | 22:14 |
| Daniel10 | anybody tried installing ldcc text based direct connect client? | 22:14 |
| Stupendoussteve | RedMushroom: Or open a terminal and run sudo apt-get install xchat | 22:14 |
| RedMushroom | cool! tyvm | 22:14 |
| Roasted | gene2 - I am stuck for a little bit. This software is really pretty incredible, and it has disk wiping and antivirus scan features on it. Right now I'm doing a full disk wipe where it continuously writes BS data overtop of each sector of the drive. I was hoping ot blast the drive entirely and see if that helped when I tried to image it, although, it sbeen wiping for the last 2 hours, so this wont be a viable fix come the day we get 6 | 22:14 |
| Roasted | 00 new computers in and they do this, but i'm just trying it as a test. | 22:14 |
| Daniel10 | irssi is the way to go | 22:14 |

| gene2 | Roasted: all you really need to worry is about the first few MBs to whipe out the MBR. The remaining is not necessary unless you think the drive is damaged. | 22:15 |

| Roasted | gene2 - I'm working with an HP dc5100. I have an image of an HP dc5000. I tried to image it and the image doesn't boot properly, it just blue screens. But I was messing around and wanted to see the image on a 2nd drive, which is when I ran into the sdb and sda issue. I wonder if the problem lies with the fact I pushed a dc5000 image to a dc5100. | 22:16 |
| whip | Stupendoussteve: for a-while yes :) | 22:16 |
| treyisrad | weekly backups are a life saver | 22:16 |
| Daniel10 | gents i'm having deprecated conversion from string constant to 'char*' while attempting to install turbovision-essential to install ldcc | 22:17 |
| Roasted | gene2 - I mean, granted, if the dc5000 image successfully got imaged to the dc5000 computer I'm working with on one drive which was found as /dev/sdb, I would assume I could keep doing it to other SATA drives and it'd be fine, where I'm now seeing /dev/sda on the 2nd drive I tried, but still... that's the only curve ball I can imagine having effect on this situation. | 22:17 |

| smokie | anyone? | 22:18 |

| smurf_ | bn43: do you mean file encryption, or encrypting the connection? | 22:36 |
| bn43 | smime | 22:36 |
| Ashex | Bah, I came in with a quick question and now I've been sucked into helping people | 22:36 |
| Ashex | There's a reason I don't have #ubuntu as autojoin | 22:36 |
| bn43 | erUSUL: read the openssl is preferred | 22:36 |
| ActionParsnip | Ashex: i do that all the time...wassup? | 22:36 |
| Daniel10 | Ashex: lol i'm familiar with it just didn't know of paste.ubuntu.com | 22:36 |
| Ashex | Daniel10, gotcha | 22:37 |
| Ashex | ActionParsnip, not much. I was about to head out and enjoy the beach 20 minutes ago :p | 22:37 |
| ActionParsnip | nice | 22:37 |
| erUSUL | bn43: what are you trying to do exactly? send encripted and signe emails so others can read them or just encrypt your local saved mails? | 22:37 |
| bn43 | erUSUL: 1st one | 22:38 |
| Daniel10 | Ashex: http://paste.ubuntu.com/145158/ | 22:38 |
| erUSUL | bn43: i'm not aware that openssl can be used that way ? are you following any how to? | 22:38 |
| W8TAH | can someone please point me to the docs on how to establish an apt repo for all my machines to use that updates from the official repos once a day? | 22:38 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | how does the "unix password sync = yes" exactly work in Samba ? | 22:38 |

| Iceman_B^Ltop | Loganhoup: thats what it's suppose to do | 22:40 |
| kklimonda | but with normal partition table | 22:40 |
| bn43 | trying to find the link | 22:40 |
| Iceman_B^Ltop | otherwise you just have one big iso file on the disc :) | 22:40 |

| Loganhoup | some burners just throw it out there | 22:40 |

| ActionParsnip | Shivam: sudo chmod 750 /path/to/file; sudo chown $USER /path/to/file | 22:40 |
| Ashex | Daniel10, those are warnings. You can fix it by going into the code and replacing `char*` with `const char` | 22:41 |
| Shivam | thanks lets try that | 22:41 |
| Ashex | But, there's something else making the build break | 22:41 |
| ActionParsnip | Shivam: if its a folder put -R after the word chmod and chown | 22:41 |
| Shivam | the whole folder is my computer | 22:41 |
| Ashex | Might be because of that, since it is unable to properly build codepage.o from codepage.cc | 22:41 |
| Shivam | home folder | 22:41 |
| bn43 | erUSUL: I just want the mail to be encrypted - ie not plain text when travelling the internet - if gnupg will do and easier, will change | 22:41 |

| Daniel10 | Ashex: i'm pretty new to linux, what file do i go into. the .config file in the source? | 22:42 |
| erUSUL | !gnupg | 22:42 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gnupg | 22:42 |
| erUSUL | bn43: which mail client do you use ? | 22:42 |
| Ashex | Daniel10, nah, the actual source. /classes/codepage.cc | 22:42 |
| Ashex | That file itself | 22:42 |
| bn43 | command line | 22:42 |
| Ashex | no gurantee it will fix it though | 22:42 |
| Prose | anyway I can change the resolution of a session at the login prompt ? | 22:42 |
| Daniel10 | Ashex: thanks it's worth a try | 22:42 |
| erUSUL | bn43: mail ? mutt? pine? | 22:42 |
| Ashex | I would suggest posting this on ubuntuforums.org | 22:42 |

| Shivam | ActionParsnip: that command is to remove just the icon off my desktop? | 22:50 |
| ActionParsnip | slimjimflim: then you can launch them from terminal, you will need to ask in xubuntu for how to add it to the menu | 22:50 |
| taromsn | I just installed Ubuntu as a second OS on this harddrive, but now I can't boot into the Windows XP partition, it says "NTLDR Missing" | 22:51 |

| ActionParsnip | Shivam: if you look in ~/Desktop you may see the icon, the fact that the permissions are bad isnt great | 22:51 |

| kklimonda | Prose: hmm.. you could try deleting $HOME/.gnome2/monitors.xml | 22:54 |
| cool | taromsn why you didn't use easyBCD to make boot from windows to you ubuntu | 22:54 |

| wemdowemd | Hi, I want to do a disk-image backup (as in, including MBR and partitions, so I can just slap the image over my hard drive should I need). I've been using a livecd and the 'dd' command in the past; is there a better (eg. less space-wasting) way to do what I want? It's important that the backup can just be written straight to the disk to get it to work thoug | 23:04 |
| KiRiLoS | leonardof, i dont think ubuntu caused that,could u give us more info? | 23:04 |
| x_link | I can't find the setting that makes all windows to open centered | 23:04 |
| taromsn | Ok then, I guess I'll do that, thanks | 23:04 |

| Stupendoussteve | corey: Flash does that sometimes, quitting the browser or rebooting generally fixes it | 23:08 |
| KiRiLoS | Brandon_X_Fox, Does your camera work with other programs?Try using lsusb and look if it's listed there | 23:08 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | I use cheese and that works | 23:08 |
| leonardof | KiRiLoS: I don't think it was Ubuntu, but maybe Wubi | 23:09 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | but what gets me, why wouldn't it work with camorama. it makes no sense | 23:09 |
| leonardof | KiRiLoS: the issue started after installing wubi | 23:09 |

| KiRiLoS | Brandon_X_Fox & gartral open a terminal and write lsusb , then check if the camera is recognized correctly | 23:10 |

| Mgamerz | The USB Startup disk option in Ubuntu 8.10 doesn't work, lol. | 23:39 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | demmon: yes with our webcam issues | 23:39 |
| raylu | |ns|nR8: no plans in 8.10 to include ext4 support, though you could roll your own kernel | 23:39 |
| demmon | Brandon_X_Fox: lol hahahahahahahahaa | 23:39 |
| clearscreen | Brandon_X_Fox: since you got it to work in another application, I think it's reasonable to assume it's an app-specific problem.. I think you're better off contacting developers for that specific software :) | 23:40 |
| demmon | Brandon_X_Fox: i am trying since 8.10 nada rien | 23:40 |
| |ns|nR8 | so the grub menu/lst wont be updated im guessing | 23:40 |
| demmon | Brandon_X_Fox: i will recomend 8.04 | 23:40 |
| |ns|nR8 | so ill have to manually edit ? | 23:40 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | demmon: ubuntu 8.04? | 23:40 |
| ndshacker | hi all, I try to mount a flash drive but get an error saying it has an invalid character in its mount point, how do I fix it? it says it cannot have these characters: / and newline | 23:40 |
| gartral | yea, camorama is pretty buggy | 23:40 |
| demmon | yes Brandon_X_Fox i have tried EVERYTHING and doesnt work | 23:41 |
| Newbee | hello | 23:41 |
| demmon | Brandon_X_Fox: or try Vbox and use it just for the cam or lil things from it ' | 23:41 |
| ndshacker | will formating this help? I have nothing important on it (yet) | 23:41 |
| raylu | ndshacker: how are you mounting it? | 23:41 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | demmon: ok I will consider the reccomendations. Thank you for your help | 23:41 |
| Stupendoussteve | Brandon_X_Fox: Might be worth a bug report | 23:41 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | stupendoussteve: I will keep that also in mind, thank you | 23:42 |
| raylu | |ns|nR8: sorry, i don't see messages to me unless you put my name in them. no, they won't, yes, you will | 23:42 |
| ndshacker | raylu: by plugging it in and clicking on the icon | 23:42 |
| demmon | Brandon_X_Fox: why do you use the cam for msn and other IM right? | 23:42 |
| Newbee | can anyone tell me how to make the --without-recommends option in aptitude the default? I don't want to install tons of packages all the time that I won't probably need. | 23:42 |
| raylu | |ns|nR8: unless there's a way to mount ext4 as ext3... | 23:42 |
| |ns|nR8 | k thanks | 23:42 |
| raylu | Newbee: edit your .bashrc to include: alias aptitude='aptitude --without-recommends' | 23:42 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | demmon: I use it for making videos, and IM purposes... as soon as pidgin begins to support webcams | 23:42 |
| pyles17 | raylu: http://paste.ubuntu.com/145192/ and the only thing gparted has is 93.16 GiB unallocated...I don't know much, but that doesn't seem good | 23:43 |
| Stupendoussteve | raylu: There is not | 23:43 |
| raylu | ndshacker: ah. i guess it has a strange label. do you know the name of the device in /dev? | 23:43 |
| demmon | Brandon_X_Fox: well try it then Vbox i use it its damn perfect and it doesnt take a lot of time :) | 23:43 |
| ndshacker | yes | 23:43 |
| ndshacker | it would be /dev/sdd | 23:43 |
| demmon | !vbox > Brandon_X_Fox | 23:43 |
| ubottu | Brandon_X_Fox, please see my private message | 23:43 |
| marqueed | how can i change the value of /usr/bin/env python for the running of one script? i'm trying "/usr/bin/env python=/usr/bin/python2.5 SCRIPTNAME" | 23:43 |
| raylu | pyles17: yeah... did you have any important data? (read: how much time are you prepared to spend doing data recovery?) | 23:43 |
| marqueed | and then restoring /usr/bin/env by "/usr/bin/env python=/usr/bin/python2.6" | 23:44 |
| Newbee | raylu: ok, I can use an alias. But isn't there an aptitude configuration option? | 23:44 |
| raylu | Stupendoussteve: sorry, what? | 23:44 |
| Stupendoussteve | raylu: You cannot mount ext4 as ext3 | 23:44 |
| Brandon_X_Fox | demmon: ok me and gartral will try the reccomendations, thanks for your help. | 23:44 |
| pyles17 | raylu: I'm not so worried about it. it sucks, but it'll be fine | 23:44 |
| raylu | Newbee: not that i know of. also, with the alias, i think removing things won't give you things that were installed as recommendations | 23:44 |
| raylu | Stupendoussteve: oh | 23:45 |
| Stupendoussteve | marqueed: PYTHON="/usr/bin/python2.5" scriptname | 23:45 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| pyles17 | raylu, clearscreen: thank you for your help | 23:45 |
| ndshacker | w00t I fixed it: I reformated as fat32 then got rid of all refernces in fstab and mtab then got rid of the stale lock file | 23:46 |
| Newbee | raylu: sorry, I am not a native English speaker. What did you mean with: " also, with the alias, i think removing things won't give you things that were installed as recommendations" ? | 23:46 |
| ndshacker | then unplugged, waited a while and plugged it back in | 23:46 |
| raylu | pyles17: this was the software i used: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk | 23:46 |
| jahbulon | http://rafb.net/p/Rap3bv32.html | 23:46 |
| jahbulon | frostwire was working fine until i installed eclipse | 23:46 |
| jahbulon | what do i have to type to make it work. | 23:47 |
| marqueed | Stupendoussteve: still no dice, and quotes throwing a syntax error | 23:47 |
| KiRiLoS | Newbee, what's ur native lang?it's possible that there is a channel which uses ur lang | 23:47 |
| clearscreen | jahbulon: I suggest you just install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 23:47 |
| raylu | Newbee: when you use 'aptitude remove foo', it also removes packages installed only for foo's dependencies and foo's recommendations. if you use --without-recommends as an alias, you won't get the recommended packages removed | 23:47 |
| pyles17 | raylu: thanks, i'll try it out | 23:47 |
| Stupendoussteve | marqueed: Try without the quotes then, I don't put variables in the cli often | 23:47 |
| marqueed | Stupendoussteve: no go without the quotes either :( | 23:47 |
| jahbulon | clearscreen: i already have that | 23:47 |
| jahbulon | how does that make frostwire work ? | 23:47 |
| abadd | so.. | 23:48 |
| marqueed | i've been relinking /usr/bin/python, but this is the only script that requires 2.5, so i'd rather not do that | 23:48 |
| Newbee | raylu: oh, I see the problem. So it would be better to use an aptitude install to aptitude --without-recommends install alias. But an aptitude option would be better. | 23:48 |
| clearscreen | jahbulon: it install java, your eclipse install might have removed some stuff that shouldnt have been removed | 23:48 |
| raylu | Newbee: try man apt.conf | 23:49 |
| bjb_nyj101 | j | 23:49 |
| raylu | Newbee: 'man aptitude' says at the bottom that you can have per-user and system-wide config files for apt | 23:49 |
| Newbee | raylu: does aptitude use the same conig as apt? | 23:49 |
| lstarnes | Newbee: yes | 23:49 |
| lanteau | I use a 16GB SDHC in my laptop to expand storage, whenever I resume from suspend Ubuntu automatically opens the removable device in nautilius, how do I stop this? | 23:49 |
| Newbee | lstarnes: ok, thanks | 23:50 |
| raylu | marqueed: wait, if you want a different python to be used for one script, why not just not use env? | 23:50 |
| marqueed | raylu: i was trying, how? | 23:50 |
| sebsebseb | 23:50 | |
| marqueed | /usr/bin/env python=python2.5 SCRIPT doesn't work | 23:51 |
| === nate[oz]- is now known as nate[oz] | ||
| marqueed | nor does /usr/bin/env python=/usr/bin/python2.5 SCRIPT | 23:51 |
| raylu | marqueed: replace the shebang with /usr/bin/python2.5 | 23:51 |
| marqueed | i could, but in general i'd like to know how to do this without modifying provided code | 23:51 |
| raylu | marqueed: do you have two versions of python intsalled or something? | 23:52 |
| marqueed | 2.5 and 2.6 | 23:52 |
| === lanteau is now known as Hostile | ||
| Hostile | I use a 16GB SDHC in my laptop to expand storage, whenever I resume from suspend Ubuntu automatically opens the removable device in nautilius, how do I stop this? | 23:53 |
| marqueed | Focus the nautilus window and press C-w | 23:53 |
| marqueed | hehaho | 23:53 |
| evantandersen | marqueed Hostile meant how do you make it so that it doesn't show up at all | 23:54 |
| StevenX | Hello all. How do I check what version of a program is in the repositories. For example, if I want to check what version I would install if I use the command "sudo apt-get install vlc". | 23:54 |
| Hostile | yeah, I dont want it popping up that window everytime I resume | 23:55 |
| Raeve | StevenX, try apt-cache show vlc | 23:55 |
| StevenX | Raeve, that worked. thanks. | 23:56 |
| sourcemaker | I have a problem with AqBanking... there is one account missing receiving the account list | 23:58 |
