| bluewook | no idea | 00:12 |
| gareth_ | i need a firewall for my machine | 00:12 |
| sebsebseb | bluewook: Do you have putty installed? | 00:13 |

| bluewook | the guide i am following didn't say anything about that :) http://members.shaw.ca/nicholas.fong/vnc/ | 00:13 |
| cabrey | jeeves, LSB being... Linux Standard Base is all I can think of | 00:13 |
| cabrey | bluewook, VNC isn't SSH | 00:14 |
| bluewook | or maybe it did | 00:14 |
| bluewook | oh i know | 00:14 |
| bluewook | i am using ssh to tunnel to vnc | 00:14 |
| cabrey | oh i just saw it now | 00:14 |
| jeeves | cabrey, I did an upgrade to Jaunty, and now my e-mail won't work, and I can't reinstall the No-IP client | 00:14 |
| cabrey | :) | 00:14 |
| sebsebseb | bluewook: ssh server on Linux, putty on Windows to connect to it | 00:14 |
| bluewook | i was recommended to do that | 00:14 |
| gareth_ | firewall. sory | 00:14 |
| flpwch | I'm trying to mount a windows shared folder as samba share on my box using mnt. i've tried -t cifs and -t smbfs. neither works, and i get a wrong fs type error. any suggestions? | 00:14 |
| cabrey | sebsebseb, it sounds like he wants to do the other way around O.o | 00:14 |
| bluewook | cabrey: correct | 00:15 |
| jeeves | cabrey, this is what I get http://pastebin.ca/1461646 | 00:15 |
| ectospasm | flpwch: do you have smbfs installed? | 00:15 |
| bluewook | sebsebseb: is there a VNC viewer on linux that you would recommend | 00:15 |
| flpwch | ectospasm: i've done this before using cifs and had it work. | 00:15 |
| flpwch | after i rebooted it didn't | 00:15 |
| flpwch | i'll check. | 00:15 |
| ectospasm | flpwch: do you have smbfs installed? | 00:15 |
| bigboss__ | bastidrazor, the shell command for mount the iso doesnt work... did u see anything wrong into the command i wrote? "sudo mount -o loop /home/antonio/Giochi/Assassin Creed/Assassins.Creed.REPACK-RELOADED/rld-acrr.iso /dev/cdrom1" | 00:15 |
| === Fussel is now known as Taunix | ||
| De[v]il | what is time,please? | 00:16 |
| jeeves | cabrey, any ideas? | 00:16 |
| cabrey | jeeves, just as I thought, LSB stands for Linux Standard Base & it isn't a plugin | 00:16 |
| aaron__ | how do i set my keyboard in linux | 00:16 |
| erUSUL | bigboss__: /dev/cdrom1 is not a good mount point | 00:16 |
| flpwch | ectospasm: generally, installing smbfs would help me indeed :) | 00:16 |
| bastidrazor | bigboss__, yes, the spaces .. put a \ after Assassin plus you'll not be able to use the cdrom.. | 00:16 |
| erUSUL | bigboss__: use something like /media/cdrom/ | 00:16 |
| jeeves | cabrey, ok, how do I fix this error so I can get this e-mail working again? | 00:16 |
| De[v]il | cabrey | 00:16 |
| gareth_ | how do i install antivirus on ubuntu | 00:16 |
| bigboss__ | ok just a sec :) | 00:16 |
| erUSUL | !av | gareth_ | 00:16 |
| ubottu | gareth_: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 00:16 |
| ectospasm | gareth_: aptitude search clamav | 00:16 |
| gareth_ | ok thanks | 00:17 |
| De[v]il | gareth_ what is time,please? | 00:17 |
| cabrey | jeeves, what email do you have? client/protocol | 00:17 |
| bigboss__ | ok thanks it works :D | 00:17 |
| ectospasm | De[v]il: time is measurement of some arbitrary change | 00:17 |
| gareth_ | 6:17 | 00:17 |
| ectospasm | oh... | 00:17 |
| gareth_ | in Jamaica | 00:17 |
| cabrey | De[v]il, 7:17 | 00:17 |
| jeeves | cabrey, it's actully a dovcot and postfix server | 00:17 |
| De[v]il | thank you | 00:17 |
| De[v]il | i am russian | 00:17 |
| cabrey | jeeves, oh this is a server? | 00:18 |
| jeeves | cabrey, would it be apt-get install lsb? | 00:18 |
| cabrey | De[v]il, you can go on the russian ubuntu channel | 00:18 |
| flpwch | De[v]il: 0:18 GMT | 00:18 |
| flpwch | you can adjust from there. | 00:18 |
| cabrey | jeeves, LSB is a standard, it is not something you install, just like you can't install the internet | 00:18 |
| cabrey | jeeves, anyways try #ubuntu-server, this channel is more for client side issues | 00:19 |
| ectospasm | cabrey: that analogy doesn't compute. | 00:19 |
| gareth_ | de[v]il | 00:19 |
| jeeves | cabrey, ok, so how do I repair the http://pastebin.ca/1461646 error? | 00:19 |

| ibeekman | hey I just resized my swap partition which changed the uuid and now I cannot hibernate. Can someone please help me? | 00:21 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: change the uuid to the new one in /etc/fstab ? | 00:22 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, this is why I'm here asking. I'm confused | 00:22 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, which version of ubuntu are you running? | 00:23 |
| jeeves | Jaunty | 00:23 |
| dope | hello | 00:23 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: Yes I did. The system seems to write the current state to disk, but when I boot up again it doesn't restore the previous session | 00:23 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, it's Jaunty. I had upgraded from 7.1 | 00:23 |
| cabrey | jeeves, is it a server? | 00:23 |
| jeeves | cabrey, yes | 00:23 |
| cabrey | jeeves, you can't upgrade from 7.10 directly to 9.04 | 00:23 |
| dope | i'm using gnome and i wannt use xfce. just install xfce and start session as xfce, that's all ok? | 00:24 |
| cabrey | jeeves, you must go 7.10 -> 8.04 -> 8.10 -> 9.04 | 00:24 |
| jeeves | cabrey, I went 7.1 to 8.1 | 00:24 |
| Hilikus | what do i need to resize the / partition? i can't do it while it is mounted can i? | 00:24 |
| jeeves | cabrey, is there a way to fix this remotley? | 00:24 |
| cowgarden | when will there be a notification once the drive is full? i hate these random errors that occure than | 00:24 |
| ibeekman | Hilikus: no you need it to be unmounted generally speaking | 00:24 |
| cabrey | jeeves, try sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:24 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: are you still there? | 00:25 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, how did you do the upgrade? | 00:25 |
| Hilikus | ibeekman so how can i do that? can i start in some special mode or i need to use a live cd? | 00:25 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: yep checking something | 00:25 |
| ibeekman | Hilikus: the only way I know of is a live cd or thumbdrive. | 00:25 |
| cabrey | Hilikus, use the livecd | 00:25 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: do you have this file /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume ? | 00:25 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, changed the sources.list to the souce list from my 8.1 server and did an "apt-get update" then "apt-get upgrade" | 00:26 |
| cabrey | jeeves, use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 00:26 |
| erUSUL | Hilikus: use a livecd | 00:26 |
| jeeves | cabrey, trying that right now. 212Mb to go | 00:26 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, yeah.. that is why you're having all the issues. that method will break everything. possibly even a reinstall may be necessary | 00:26 |
| Hilikus | ok i'll do that. last question, the new space happens to be earlier in the drive so i am prepending the new space, would that require a move of the whole FS or is it a problem at all? | 00:26 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, will the dist-upgrade fix things? | 00:27 |
| cabrey | jeeves, it is confusing. update updates package lists, upgrade actually update the packages & dist-upgrade moves you to another version of ubuntu | 00:27 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, possibly. | 00:27 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: I think this is my problem need to change the uuid here. | 00:27 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, we hope it does. thank god I have beer! | 00:27 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, heh... good luck. if dist-upgrade doesn't fix things the easiest route may be reinstall.. | 00:28 |
| cabrey | bastidrazor, +1 | 00:28 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: ok do that... maybe just a « sudo update-iniramfs » is enough but to be sure change it there and then do the sudo update-iniramfs | 00:28 |
| Cry__Baby | anyone know why Firefox logins to my netbank, but opera wont? | 00:28 |
| PerryArmstrong | i wanted to install kpdf in my 9.04 but i didnt find the package in my repos..can anyone help me install it | 00:29 |
| cabrey | erUSUL, don't you mean update-initramfs? | 00:29 |
| volume | cry__baby: because whoever designed your banks website used javascript to detect what browser you're using, and they decided opera couldn't play | 00:29 |
| volume | cry__baby: that's the likely situation, anyway | 00:29 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, that's not possible. it's on the east coast. I'm on Vancouver island | 00:29 |
| Hilikus | Cry__Baby i had problems with my bank's website in opera as well, i think its because secure websites don't use standards very well and the programmer never tests it in opera | 00:29 |
| erUSUL | cabrey: yes... a typo... 1.30 am here ;P | 00:29 |
| Cry__Baby | volume: but opera worked last week.. maybe netbank updated some website coding that opera doesnt understand? | 00:29 |
| cabrey | erUSUL, you're living in the future | 00:30 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: do you think that's all I need to do? | 00:30 |
| Cry__Baby | Hilikus: so solution is? Just use firefox? | 00:30 |
| xhunter | yes | 00:30 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: not sure i do not use the feature | 00:30 |
| mbostwick | I am going nuts I have been tryin to get the hp express tuner card work (rebranded hvr 1500) but for some reason it says fails to load firmware ( i2c-adapter i2c-1: firmware: requesting dvb-fe-xc5000-1.1.fw , xc5000: Upload failed. (file not found?) | 00:30 |
| mbostwick | xc5000: Unable to initialise tuner) but I can't find it anywhere | 00:30 |
| volume | cry_baby: perhaps... but html isn't exactly a new technology... | 00:30 |
| Hilikus | Cry__Baby i used opera for like 6 years, until probably 9 months ago when i got tired of incompatible websites, even if it's the programmers fault is damn annoying, so FF | 00:31 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, your server could be broken for a while if dist-upgrade fails :\ | 00:31 |
| cabrey | mbostwick, try #mythbuntu | 00:31 |
| mbostwick | ok thanks | 00:31 |
| Cry__Baby | if I use firefox, can any website install any nasties into hard drive or memory to compromise my netbanking login? | 00:31 |
| jeeves | bastidrazor, lol, true thanks though | 00:31 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, no, but as a precaution, you can use firefox profiles | 00:31 |
| Hilikus | jeeves are you trying to update your distro in your server? | 00:31 |
| erUSUL | mbostwick: google is your friend http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showpost.php?p=14481174&postcount=13 | 00:31 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: so what does update-initramfs do? I think also I need sudo update-initramfs -u | 00:32 |
| Hilikus | he left. you can't upgrade distros remotely | 00:32 |
| Cry__Baby | in other words. can I use firefox to visit p0rn websites, and evry website known to man, and still be able to use firefox for netbanking? Or is there a program or hack that can infiltrate firefox and then somehow steal my bank details when I login to netbank? | 00:32 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, use firefox profiles | 00:32 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: can you pls explain a bit more about firefox profiles? | 00:32 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: redo the initramfs the kernel uses to boot (and find the suspended image btw) | 00:32 |
| FeasibilityStudy | Cry_Baby AppArmor profiles | 00:32 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, one for banking and one for general use, keeps them separate from each other | 00:32 |
| cabrey | FeasibilityStudy, NO | 00:32 |
| Cry__Baby | what are AppArmor profiles? | 00:33 |
| Hilikus | Cry__Baby FF is secure. i did that during the 6 years i used opera, had FF for backup when opera didn't work | 00:33 |
| ibeekman | ok, Im about to give it a shot | 00:33 |
| ibeekman | brb | 00:33 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: sounds great.. how do I now create a AppArmor profiles? | 00:33 |
| cabrey | FeasibilityStudy, apparmor is more pain than it is worth | 00:33 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: about to give it a try brb | 00:33 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, Firefox profiles, not apparmor | 00:33 |
| FeasibilityStudy | cabrey nah. I have FF locked down with AppArmor..Works well | 00:33 |
| erUSUL | ibeekman: good luck | 00:33 |
| Hilikus | of coures at the beginning my backup was IE cause FF didnt exist | 00:33 |
| Cry__Baby | what is AppArmor? | 00:33 |
| cabrey | FeasibilityStudy, but he wants to separate banking from general use, apparmor doesnt do that | 00:34 |
| Hilikus | actually it was not 6 years ago, it was more like 9 | 00:34 |

| mib_wzlf60su | I have done some basic troubleshooting | 00:35 |
| mib_wzlf60su | but running out of ideas | 00:35 |
| Adola | Hi! I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop. I installed XBMC and it's very very glitchy when it runs. It flashes, and such. | 00:35 |
| mib_wzlf60su | What is XBMC? | 00:37 |
| Mohamed | Hello all, I am using Hardy, and installed ProFTPD, and its working fine, I need to get it activated at system boot, How? | 00:37 |
| spaztik | damnit, my ubuntu broke doing an update | 00:37 |
| spaztik | and now it's all broken to hell | 00:37 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, use update-rc.d is there is an init script | 00:38 |
| spaztik | everything fails cuz of locale settings, i can't install locales as suggested by everything i find on the net cuz my aptitude thinks i need to install xfce4-panel first, which fails because of locale not being set... FML | 00:38 |
| Mohamed | cabrey sorry didn't get you :| | 00:38 |
| Adola | #ati | 00:38 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, does an init script come with ProFTPD? | 00:39 |
| cabrey | Adola, /join #ati | 00:39 |
| bastidrazor | Hilikus, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading shows it is possible to upgrade remotely .. under the Network Upgrade for Servers | 00:39 |
| sebsebseb | Adola: install your graphics card driver, if you haven't already | 00:39 |
| Bravewolf | what is the port used by ping? I would like to block it via ufw to reduce the risk of DOS on my desktop pc | 00:39 |
| Mohamed | cabrey if this what you are asking for, I can start proftpd using this command /etc/init.d/proftpd start | 00:39 |
| ibeekman | erUSUL: Many many many thanks! works like a charm | 00:39 |
| ibeekman | now that I have upgraded my RAM time to install my SSD | 00:40 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, yes, ok thats good, just hold on a sec :) | 00:40 |
| Mohamed | ok :D | 00:40 |
| Hilikus | bastidrazor mm thats good to know, thanks | 00:40 |
| KillGorack | can ubuntu see more than 3mb of ram? | 00:40 |
| KillGorack | err gb? | 00:40 |
| ectospasm | KillGorack: yes | 00:40 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: do I really need no-script addon for firefox in Ubuntu? After all, what website script can damage or compromise Ubuntu? | 00:40 |
| mib_wzlf60su | I was trying to setup an additional network card to use my computer as an LTSP server, and setup my NIC as static, and I did something bad, and no network connection now. | 00:41 |
| ectospasm | KillGorack: if you want to see more than 3.4GB, you need PAE or a 64bit kernel | 00:41 |
| Mohamed | KillGorack yeah but i386 ubuntu can't see full 4GB | 00:41 |
| KillGorack | I have four installed in a dual boot system.. windows sees it.. but ubuntu does not. | 00:41 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, some people like it because it also removes ads | 00:41 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, run sudo update-rc.d proftpd start 2 3 4 . | 00:41 |
| KillGorack | 64bit version of ubuntu? | 00:41 |
| Hilikus | bastidrazor every time i tried to do it it said that remote updates were not recommended, but i did it with update-distro or whatever apt-get switch | 00:41 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, that should do the trick | 00:41 |
| ectospasm | KillGorack: yes | 00:41 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: but is it needed un ubuntu for security purposes? | 00:41 |
| KillGorack | I was gonna get that but it said amd64 or something.. | 00:41 |
| KillGorack | will that run on an intel chip? | 00:42 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, no it is not necessary, tho there ARE always going to be security vulnerabilities | 00:42 |
| Mohamed | cabrey and what does this command do? | 00:42 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: drive-by downloads etc cannot work in ubuntu, right? so do I really need no-script addon for firefox in Ubuntu? | 00:42 |
| ectospasm | KillGorack: AMD came up with the hypbrid 32/64bit instruction set, so 64bit is commonly referred to amd64 | 00:42 |
| bastidrazor | Hilikus, checking ubuntu.com for hints is the only way to go :) | 00:42 |
| ectospasm | s/hyp/hy/ | 00:42 |
| KillGorack | ahh dag nabit.. | 00:42 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, it creates a symlink in the /etc/rc.d/ folders to run proftpd at startup | 00:42 |
| spaztik | hey guys, i have an issue where i'm trying to do an update, and during the update i get an error about locale stuff; through google searching i see i need the package "locales", which won't install cuz i was in the middle of the upgrade, and now aptitude thinks i need xfce4-panel before I can continue, which fails due to not having the locale working properly... any ideas? | 00:42 |
| cabrey | symlinks* | 00:42 |
| KillGorack | guess I'll have to reinstall ubuntu then ;-/ | 00:42 |
| Mohamed | cabrey its says "System startup links for /etc/init.d/proftpd already exist." | 00:43 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, if you're really that paranoid, you can leave it there | 00:43 |
| armence | Hey all, anyone know if it's possible to turn Thunderbird into a system tray icon? | 00:43 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, it sounds like it already starts up at erm startup | 00:43 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: im not talking about my personal paranoia.. im talking generalised terms.. does there exist a website script that can infiltrate and compromise Ubuntu? | 00:44 |
| mib_wzlf60su | you just drag the icon out of the stat menu or from the Thunderbird program folder to the menu | 00:44 |
| KillGorack | is there a way to "upgrade" fromn the 32 bit versio to the 64? | 00:44 |
| Mohamed | cabrey after startup I check its status using GPROFTPD and it always says Deactivated | 00:44 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, I can't give you a definite answer, for all I know there is | 00:44 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, run ls -R /etc/rc* | grep proftpd | 00:44 |
| bastidrazor | KillGorack, that isn't an upgrade.. that is a change in distro.. sorta and basically no. reinstall to get 64bit | 00:44 |
| Cry__Baby | armence: yes.. right click on it and say "add this launcher to pannel" | 00:44 |
| KillGorack | aight then | 00:45 |
| icarus_squared | does the latest ubuntu still use a hacky ndiswrapper for ath5k? | 00:45 |
| icarus_squared | or does it use the kernel ath5k | 00:45 |
| armence | Cry__Bay: That's the launcher, not the system tray icon | 00:45 |
| bastidrazor | icarus_squared, jaunty atheros drivers work like a charm. | 00:45 |
| cabrey | icarus_squared, ath5k is native, never did use ndiswrapper | 00:45 |
| Mohamed | cabrey this is the output http://pastebin.com/m3b11614f | 00:45 |
| Cry__Baby | armence: can you right click on it and then choose "move" | 00:45 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, thats interesting, it should be running at startup | 00:46 |
| icarus_squared | cabrey, I remember when 6.04 they used ath5000 or something | 00:46 |
| armence | Cry__Baby: That's not the point... Where it is is not the issue... I don't want something to start Thunderbird... I want something to notify me when I have new mail... | 00:46 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, what happens when you try to connect to it? | 00:46 |
| spaztik | hey guys, i have an issue where i'm trying to do an update, and during the update i get an error about locale stuff; through google searching i see i need the package "locales", which won't install cuz i was in the middle of the upgrade, and now aptitude thinks i need xfce4-panel before I can continue, which fails due to not having the locale working properly... any ideas? | 00:46 |

| ruler | can i install nero in ubuntu | 00:46 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, any error messages? | 00:46 |

| pro0stipioute | hi all | 00:47 |
| spaztik | jrib, good idea, dunno why i didn't do that already... sorry | 00:47 |
| cabrey | armence, there might be an addon | 00:47 |
| Mohamed | cabrey yeah Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:xxxxx. | 00:47 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: can you give me an example of what can happen in a profile that could compromise my netbanking? | 00:47 |
| David__ | IRC really needs a queue system... | 00:47 |
| Mohamed | after activating it thru GPROFTPD it works | 00:47 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, ok and you can start it after you're system is boot up by running sudo /etc/init.d/proftpd start? | 00:48 |
| Cry__Baby | armence: tell thunderbird to check emails every 5 or 10 mins | 00:48 |
| Mohamed | cabrey yeah | 00:48 |

| armence | cabrey: Thanks... | 00:48 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: so why am I creating a new profile for netbanking? :P | 00:48 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, because you kept asking for a way to separate your browsing | 00:49 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: no i didnt... i asked if there is a website that can run anything that compromises my netbanking :) | 00:49 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: you then suggested create a different profile | 00:49 |
| ruler | how to install nero | 00:49 |
| David__ | Is there a room better suited to a complete ubuntu newbie? (IE.. someone who doesn't even know how to install KDE)? | 00:49 |
| sebsebseb | ruler: why? there are good alternatives | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | David__: not quite, but pm me, and I can help with stuff like that | 00:50 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, you've been on here like a week, and somebody suggested to use opera before, am I right? | 00:50 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: I then asked.. what can happen in ubuntu firefox to compromise my netbanking.. you then said you arent sure :) so at the end of the day.. the reality is. we just arent 100% sure. So best to create a profile ;) | 00:50 |
| sebsebseb | David__: or do here | 00:50 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, opera in conjunction with FF that is | 00:50 |
| Mohamed | David__ this is the best room, I advice you searching in ubuntuforums.org too | 00:50 |
| De[v]il | i am Russian men! | 00:50 |
| David__ | Thank you. | 00:50 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: I cant use opera.. my bank wont run it properly.. scroll up, it was mentioned | 00:50 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, I know, but the point is you wanted to use it along with ff to separate you're browsing | 00:51 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: hence, im still looking for alternative.. and your suggestion about profiles is what I will do | 00:51 |
| cabrey | Cry__Baby, nvm, you're right, we can never be 100% sure | 00:51 |
| matthew | hi | 00:51 |
| skyl | why does ubuntu not work / is-so-far-behind in various VoIP-type technologies and most notably in the browser things that seem to be flash or java never seem to work on ubuntu and my webcam doesn't work, etc ... | 00:51 |
| === matthew is now known as Guest81064 | ||
| Guest81064 | my apache fails to start or stop. Fails immediately, no error message. | 00:51 |
| skyl | will this change in the near future I hope? | 00:51 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: yes and that is why I am going to follow your recommendations.. because we just cant be 100% sure, and so it cannot hurt to create a seperate profile for netbanking. | 00:51 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, you can make proftpd start later in the boot process | 00:51 |
| jrib | skyl: do you have a specific support question? | 00:51 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, it might be failing because network hasn't started :/ | 00:52 |
| sekyourbox | how do you simply copy a screenshot and paste it in ubuntu | 00:52 |
| Mohamed | cabrey do you mean implement a delay mechanism? | 00:52 |
| jrib | sekyourbox: print screen will let you take a screen shot and save it | 00:52 |
| Cry__Baby | cabrey: so profile is the answer I been seeking. Thank you for your help, patience and time. | 00:52 |
| sekyourbox | gimp and the other thing wont let me | 00:52 |
| Mohamed | sekyourbox pressing PrintScreen on your keyboard will do the job | 00:52 |
| cabrey | Mohamed, no, it is built in, see those numbers after the K/S in the pastebin you gave me? | 00:53 |
| sekyourbox | ah | 00:53 |
| sekyourbox | thanks, but how about jpg? | 00:53 |

| Cry__Baby | g0th: what can amarok do that vlc cannot? | 00:54 |
| cabrey | Adola, open source ones | 00:54 |
| VCoolio | sekyourbox: you can make a launcher for "gnome-screenshot -i" that will give you several options | 00:54 |
| VCoolio | sekyourbox: or a keybinding of course | 00:54 |

| LargePrime | you did. thanks for the help. did you see the link | 01:29 |
| LargePrime | yep. following the linked artical | 01:29 |
| zcat[1] | so I installed from the ppa as advised in #ubuntu+1 .. and now mozilla's website won't believe that I'm running 3.5b4 now so won't let me download any extensions | 01:30 |
| bastidrazor | jeeves, pts/2 is not a tty.. are you trying to reconnect a screened session? | 01:30 |
| fccf | Brando753: I was doing a little reading ... the max file size limit for ntfs-3g is 4gigs ... . I'd repartition | 01:30 |

| LargePrime | bastidrazor: site says /etc/ssh/sshd_config did the name change? | 01:31 |
| jeeves | spasticteapot, do you need me to "tip you over"? | 01:31 |

| sun01tech | darlek: i have 8.04 | 01:35 |
| bastidrazor | LargePrime, ssh is not enabled if you do not have that package installed. in that case you don't need to edit that file if you can't ssh,scp to your box | 01:35 |
| nsahoo | i thought that was a old problem | 01:35 |
| Josie | Okay. So I just setup ubuntu with the alternate Cd, and I encrypted my home directory. how do I set the passphrase? | 01:35 |
| quinten | i installed network-manager-pptp | 01:35 |

| cuddlefish | This is more of a hardware question, but does a video card need drivers installed to boot? | 01:35 |
| LargePrime | bastidrazor: so it is not installed by default? | 01:35 |
| bastidrazor | LargePrime, no. | 01:36 |
| fbc-mx | Is there an easy way of running a command recursively in every directory under the one I'm in? | 01:36 |
| Josie | cuddlefish, No. The VGA driver should work on 98% of systems. You won't have any hardware acceleration though. | 01:36 |
| bastidrazor | LargePrime, that is gripe from many people but i see why the devs don't want ssh enabled by default | 01:36 |

| === jforte is now known as Jena | ||
| Josie | You'll need java-webstart, use "apt-cache search java web" to find the exact package name. | 01:39 |
| LargePrime | bastidrazor: I have some friends in china who have a need for such | 01:39 |
| bastidrazor | LargePrime, the way it ships is secure. the page you have linked is a good place to start. | 01:39 |

| Dimitree | Is there a difference for the Software Resources when the server is selected ? "Main Server" and Local country server for example ? | 01:41 |
| Josie | jeremy_, Also, you can verify that java is in fact install by typing "java --version" in a terminal. | 01:42 |
| bastidrazor | Dimitree, no | 01:42 |
| darlek | jeremy_, what does runescape say? any error message? | 01:42 |
| Dimitree | bastidrazor, why then when selecting "main server" new updates are being found which are not found when using "local" server ? | 01:42 |
| bernie_ | i'm looking for help with sudoers | 01:43 |
| bastidrazor | Dimitree, what 'local' server are you referring to? | 01:43 |
| huckrebel | I would like to know if it is a preference thing or if there really is a 'better' one: Wine, Crossover, or a VM | 01:44 |
| Dimitree | bastidrazor, well at default my server is set to "Server for Bulgaria" and when i check for updates it found updates and installed them, but when i switch to "Main server" it finds even more updates | 01:44 |
| bernie_ | does anyone know how I can fix this: sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0600, should be 0440 | 01:45 |
| lstarnes | bernie_: are you unable to use sudo? | 01:45 |
| bastidrazor | Dimitree, possibly the mirror for bulgaria hasn't updated yet | 01:45 |
| bernie_ | that's right, everytime I try sudo I get that message | 01:45 |
| darlek | !ubottu | darlek | 01:45 |

| huckrebel | I just didn't want to start downloading willy nilly | 01:48 |

| lstarnes | stealth-: you could add that to your personal crontab | 01:48 |
| koiril | Anyone have some time to help me fix an mdadm problem? | 01:48 |
| stealth- | lstarnes: but then wouldnt it run repeatedly? | 01:49 |
| piv | TheDJACR, thanks, will check -em out | 01:49 |
| lstarnes | stealth-: not if you use @reboot as the time | 01:49 |
| huckrebel | also having trouble with Avant Window Nav. "Warning: Screen isn't composited. Please run compiz (-fusion) or another compositing manager." | 01:49 |

| spaztik | bastidrazor, that link was silly... that didn't gimme any help | 01:49 |

| spaztik | i can't get this dang locale working | 01:50 |

| lstarnes | stealth-: each command in it is executed at the scheduled time for that command | 01:50 |
| darlek | !locale | lstarnes | 01:50 |
| ubottu | lstarnes: To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf | 01:50 |
| bastidrazor | spaztik, running dpkg --configure -a from tty1 didn't do anything | 01:50 |
| disphazed | bonsoir les gens | 01:50 |
| koiril | ekimmargni, look for something called nohup | 01:50 |
| lstarnes | stealth-: cron, which runs the crontabs, starts during the boot provess | 01:50 |
| jeremy_ | is this the plugin i need to display java appelets gcjwebplugin | 01:50 |
| stealth- | lstarnes: okay, thanks for your help | 01:50 |
| lstarnes | *process | 01:50 |
| ekimmargni | stealth-: it's executed once per minute -- it checks each crontab entry whether it is supposed to run in the current minute and runs it if so. For @reboot, of course it is supposed to execute only at reboot, and that's what happens (unless something goes wrong) | 01:50 |
| lstarnes | darlek: wrong person? | 01:51 |
| stealth- | ekimmargni: yeah, got it. thx | 01:51 |

| salmon | hey, running 9.04 and sound works in everything but flash, anyone can help me get sound in flash i would love you forever | 01:54 |
| stealth- | binskipy2u: as a general rule, apt-get will take care of stuff if there is conflicts, so it either wont allow you to install the new package or will remove the conflicting one | 01:55 |
| koiril | Anyone here good with fdisk and mdadm? | 01:55 |
| darlek | stealth-, binskipy2u , as well aptitude does the same as apt-get but also offers suggestions in case of a conflict install. | 01:56 |

| jezi22 | and it will be just fine? | 02:00 |
| spaztik | ah i think this box is b0rked | 02:00 |
| stealth- | jezi22: yes, just run the command sebsebseb said | 02:00 |
| darlek | !pastebinit | 02:00 |
| ubottu | pastebinit is the command-line equivelent of !pastebin . Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output. Simple usage: command-name | pastebinit | 02:00 |

| billybigrigger | koiril::: oh | 02:06 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: you never told me you deleted the array | 02:06 |
| sebsebseb | stealth-: still got to install that in vm | 02:06 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: man mdadm | 02:06 |
| salmon | ajavid, indeed, hey do you know anything about sound problems, and or how to fix them | 02:06 |
| ajavid | salmon, i maybe able to help | 02:06 |
| ajavid | salmon, ask | 02:06 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, I mean I've had the same problem every time I've tried to set it up | 02:06 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, I'm created it and deleted it at least 30 times so far. The problem is with fdisk | 02:06 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: insead of -A do -C | 02:06 |
| henrik_ | Is it possible to boot without erasing /tmp, or does it only erase on shutdown? | 02:06 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: i don't understand | 02:07 |
| Nkipp | can i get help with an issue | 02:07 |
| salmon | ajavid, so sound works in every thing but flash, it all worked at one point, running 9.04. i restarted one day, and lost sound in flash | 02:07 |
| stealth- | sebsebseb: thats my next distro to try, i've tried slackware and debian so far | 02:07 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, me neither lol. Gimme 2 min and I'll get it to the position that I'm talking about | 02:07 |
| sebsebseb | stealth-: mine is Fedora 11, and downloading now :) vm in Ubuntu first | 02:07 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, thanks for the help btw. 2 min... | 02:07 |
| hwkdrv | Hello! I am looking for a how-to on manually installing a printer on Ubuntu Server 9.04 (for a newbie) Thanks :) | 02:07 |
| ajavid | salmon, try install alsa-oss pckage, restart firefox | 02:07 |
| ajavid | salmon, see if that helps | 02:07 |
| skyl | why would apache return half a response and work a little better in lynx and load a page but not in graphical browsers ... how can this be something to do with #my-router? | 02:08 |
| salmon | ajavid, tried it.. no dice | 02:08 |
| ExMachina | hi which package has nvidia-settings? | 02:08 |
| getxsick | hi, how can i disable hinting for fonts smaller than 12? | 02:08 |
| stealth- | sebsebseb: I just try them when I get a new computer. Anyways, though, I got to go. nice talking 2 ya | 02:08 |
| Nkipp | i have ubuntu and i was able to port forward just fine on my old router but when it died i got a netgear router, would there be any reason why my netgear router will not port forward in ubuntu? | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | stealth-: heh ok no probs, by the way we were off topic :d | 02:08 |
| === |_ocke is now known as IliekItRough | ||
| ajavid | salmon, no idea then | 02:08 |
| salmon | ExMachina, for me all i had to do was allow the restricted drivers and it installed them | 02:08 |
| salmon | ajavid, thank you anyhow | 02:08 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: no, the router port forwards *to* ubuntu, ubuntu has no choice or say in the matter, really. | 02:09 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: ubuntu actually treats it like a connection from within the network | 02:09 |
| Nkipp | stealth-, i dont understand why port forwarding is working for me then on this router | 02:09 |
| === NvdH is now known as NavadeHo | ||
| koiril | billybigrigger, ok so I have my array up and running with no problems. Now I'm going to reboot but when it does the array isn't going to come online because /proc/partitions can't find the partitions to add to the array | 02:10 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: I seriously doubt it has anything to do with ubuntu | 02:10 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: so your problem is that it doesn't auto-load your array on boot? | 02:10 |
| Nkipp | i dont get that i can port forward just fine on winblows but it just wont work on ubuntu | 02:10 |
| losher | henrik_ : /tmp is erased at bootup by /etc/init.d/bootclean. Directories in /tmp don't seem to get erased though... | 02:10 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, yup. I'll give you that output that you asked for in 2 secs when it comes back online | 02:10 |
| losher | henrik_ : /tmp is erased at bootup by /etc/init.d/bootclean. Directories in /tmp don't seem to get erased though... | 02:11 |
| hwkdrv | Is there anyone that could lend a hand on finding some information on a printer install? | 02:11 |
| jrib | spaztik: that's definitely your issue (the debian sources) | 02:11 |
| jrib | !printing > hwkdrv | 02:11 |
| ubottu | hwkdrv, please see my private message | 02:11 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: do you have that port open on your ubuntu machine? | 02:11 |
| Nkipp | how do i do that | 02:11 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: well ever since i upgraded to karmic my raid isn't auto-loaded/auto-mounted either | 02:12 |
| salmon | *cries* i need help, i want sound in flash back so bad. SO BAD... someone please help | 02:12 |
| henrik_ | losher: ah, but can I bypass it somehow on one boot? My computer crashed and I'd like to save some stuff from there | 02:12 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, http://www.mibbit.com/pb/57iOdZ | 02:12 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: well, what port are you trying to forward? | 02:12 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, that's what happens when I try to assemble now | 02:12 |
| Nkipp | stealth-, 27015 | 02:12 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, This is the command I used to create the array: sudo mdadm -Cvf /dev/md0 -l5 -n3 -c64 /dev/sd{a,b,c}1 | 02:12 |
| henrik_ | losher: do all runlevels run that script? | 02:13 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: what service uses that port? | 02:13 |
| Nkipp | stealth-, a counter strike source game server | 02:13 |
| Stepanstas | I need help recovering files from a corrupt partition. | 02:13 |
| billybigrigger | hmm | 02:13 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: mdadm -A -auto /dev/md0 SDA SDB SDC | 02:14 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: have you even tried to read the manpage for mdadm? | 02:14 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: do you have the server running on your machine? port forwarding wont do anything if nothing is listening at the port | 02:14 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, I've read it thoroughly several times :) | 02:14 |
| inx-live | How can i make a live CD of an external USB harddrive | 02:14 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: do you have data on this raid? or have you wiped it? | 02:15 |
| Nkipp | stealth-, what? its like it worked perfectly fine with the old router and i do not know what i am doing wrong | 02:15 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: did the old router work with ubuntu and your counter strike server? | 02:16 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Nah it's dead. It only has files on it that I was using for testing but I don't care about them. This is the part that confuses me: http://www.mibbit.com/pb/p8oo3Q | 02:16 |
| Nkipp | stealth-, yea the old router was just fine and all i did was port forward | 02:16 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, With that output /proc/partitions says I don't have any partitions on my 3 drives yet fdisk says I do | 02:16 |
| salmon | hello DBO, fubaz, cynic, and uncle_meat | 02:16 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: well then its something to do with your router, not ubuntu. Or you changed something on your ubuntu machine | 02:17 |
| inx-live | How do I make a live cd from stuff on my external USB harddrive? | 02:17 |
| losher | henrik_: I'm not sure about the runlevels. That stuff isn't well documented. You could hand edit /etc/init.d/bootclean so it skips certain files I suppose.... | 02:17 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: hmm | 02:18 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: the computer system never talks to the router in great detail, the router just sends all data it gets on that port directly to the server. If ubuntu was working with it before, but not this time, then its not ubuntu's fault, something is mis-configured with the router | 02:18 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: i don't know what to tell you | 02:18 |
| Nkipp | stealth-, i have changed nothing but its just so weird that the router works on one operating system but not the other | 02:18 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: all looks good | 02:18 |
| henrik_ | losher: well, I can't do that at the moment without booting it | 02:18 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: what about removing the -f when you build the array? | 02:18 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: any errors? | 02:18 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Sort of. If I remove the -f then it creates the array with 2 disks and 1 spare | 02:19 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, I read that mdadm does that to make the original rebuilding process faster | 02:19 |
| henrik_ | losher: by reading the script of another installation, a .clean file in the directory seems to bypass the clean | 02:19 |
| losher | henrik_: wanna say more about what the problem is, rather than assuming the solution? | 02:19 |
| salmon | so sound died in flash, restarted my computer the other day and lost sound, but only in flash. tried re-installing flash, and installing alsa-oss. anyone know what else i could do to fix this problem | 02:19 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: I dont know what to tell you past that. | 02:19 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: hmmm | 02:20 |
| stealth- | Nkipp: sorry, but I cant think of any way it would be OS related | 02:20 |
| Nkipp | :\ | 02:20 |
| henrik_ | losher: the problem is that I had some files in the /tmp directory and the computer crashed. I'd like to boot the computer without them getting deleted. | 02:20 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: ahhh | 02:20 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: it seems to be in your config, can i ask what -c64 is? | 02:20 |
| salmon | NKipp, how old is the hard disc? | 02:20 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Sets the cluster size to 64 | 02:20 |
| mib_hi2u | hello, i have a linux box which has been running fine for several weeks. Now all of the sudden when I try to connect to one of the https pages it tells me that the ssl key is too long. It ignores me via ssh as well. | 02:20 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: doesn't -c set your config file? | 02:20 |
| Nkipp | salmon, what? | 02:20 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Err maybe... let me check the man pages | 02:21 |
| TheDJACR | Will Firefox 3.5 be added to the Jaunty Repos? | 02:21 |
| salmon | NKipp, well your losing files rite? i had the same sort of problem right before my last hard drive died on me | 02:21 |
| jeremy_ | what do i install to get java appelets to display in mozilla | 02:21 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Good catch, let me try rebuilding the array real quick | 02:22 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: hold on | 02:22 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: i read something wrong | 02:22 |
| Stepanstas | I need help recovering files from a corrupt partition. | 02:22 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: in Create mode (-C) -c is chunk size | 02:22 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: your right | 02:22 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Ah ok | 02:22 |
| Nkipp | salmon, i cant get ubuntu to port forward :\ nothing about losing files | 02:22 |
| losher | henrik_: it's possible a single user boot might work, but I can't guarantee it without trying it. One for-sure method would be to boot the live-cd and then mount the root partition & look round... | 02:23 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: ok, check your mdadm.conf | 02:23 |
| salmon | NKipp, my b, sorry i didn't read everything that was posted, ha ha... sorry to bother you | 02:23 |
| mib_hi2u | Do self-authored SSL certs expire? | 02:23 |
| henrik_ | losher: I'm starting to think that the single user won't help. I think the script gets run in all runlevels | 02:23 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: nano /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf | 02:23 |

| voldenet | I installed windows 7 beta, and my grub is gone, how to reinstall grub (ubuntu on cd which i got doesn't support ext4fs)? | 02:25 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, I'll try removing it then arranging again | 02:25 |
| losher | henrik_: You'd think this would be a common enough situation that there'd be some provision for it. Boot the live cd then... | 02:25 |
| grkblood13 | got it, tahnks | 02:26 |
| henrik_ | losher: I was hoping for some boot argument or something, I suppos I must go the long way and find a live cd + plug in a cd-reader | 02:26 |

| koiril | billybigrigger, Yeah I was really hoping to get it to work. I'm going to try posting in the Ubuntu forums as well | 02:30 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: and mind you, i set my raid up when i installed the os, ubuntu did all the config for me | 02:30 |

| truongloc | oh | 02:33 |

| bastidrazor | ltcabral, killall program name or ps aux|grep programname .. kill -9 the PID of it | 02:33 |
| halberd | if it is wireless use iwconfig and iwlist | 02:33 |
| truongloc | i don't know | 02:33 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, They were $90 CDN each | 02:33 |
| ltcabral | voldenet: how do i get the pid | 02:33 |
| billybigrigger | ltcabral::: you can try what voldenet suggested, or sudo killall kosmo | 02:33 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: from where? | 02:33 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Newegg.ca had a killer 1 day sale | 02:33 |

| ltcabral | voldenet: returns nothing | 02:34 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: what brand? you have the link to them? | 02:34 |
| voldenet | pidof returns nothing? | 02:34 |
| ltcabral | voldenet: seems like prog name isnt really kosmo :P | 02:34 |
| voldenet | use ps -a | 02:34 |
| koiril | billybigrigger, Gimme a sec and I'll dig one up. | 02:34 |
| voldenet | and find program name manually | 02:34 |
| voldenet | or use top | 02:34 |
| rycar | chelehandsome: set the environment variable http_proxy | 02:35 |
| billybigrigger | koiril::: and for raid q's, check #ubuntu-server | 02:35 |

| jon_c | Hey -- I gather we're supposed to use update-manager-core to update from one server distribution to the next; we have a Gutsy server that doesn't have update-manager-core installed, and we can't install it because Gutsy's been EoLed. How can we get update-manager-core to upgrade to something that's still active? | 02:41 |
| billybigrigger | skyl::: check your router's web administration page, usually 192.168.1.1 | 02:41 |

| rycar | cryptide: fdisk -l | 02:46 |
| sheikpunk | billybigrigger: i try again | 02:46 |
| cryptide | sounds dangerous | 02:46 |
| Flannel | TruthTaco: medibuntu doesn't have smplayer, but the regular repositories do. | 02:46 |
| krishmish | skyl: once u set the dhcp on the router and if u still have problems with seeing the default gateway...do this... sudo route add defaultgw 192.168.1.1 | 02:46 |
| rycar | cryptide: man fdisk | 02:47 |
| losher | cryptide: it's safe to run 'fdisk -l' | 02:47 |
| Flannel | TruthTaco: to install smplayer, just install it through your favorite package manager. Here's a howto for the most popular GUI one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 02:47 |
| TruthTaco | my problem is... my mplayer was working but anything i ran in smplayer was giving problems | 02:47 |
| cryptide | nothing happened | 02:47 |
| TruthTaco | so i uninstalled smplayer | 02:47 |
| krishmish | skyl : sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1 | 02:47 |
| drewww | hi all - trying to update a gutsy server to hardy, but we don't have update-manager-core installed yet. we can't seem to get it because gutsy is eol'd. how can we get around this? | 02:47 |
| losher | cryptide: 'sudo fdisk -l' | 02:47 |
| TruthTaco | even if i install smplayer i dont know if it will fix it | 02:47 |
| bastidrazor | TruthTaco, it says on that site that smplayer has known issues in ubuntu | 02:47 |
| sheikpunk | billybigrigger: thank you | 02:48 |
| billybigrigger | sheikpunk::: no problem | 02:48 |
| Flannel | drewww: Change your repos to http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu and that'll let you get the stuff you need for Gutsy | 02:48 |

| losher | rycar: a hanging offense, hereabouts.... | 02:48 |
| rycar | TruthTaco: vlc? | 02:48 |
| billybigrigger | TruthTaco::: what kind of player? | 02:48 |
| bastidrazor | TruthTaco, totem or vlc | 02:48 |
| mashedpgravy | i need some help with an external usb drive that has always worked pretty good, but suddenly ubuntu will not auto mount | 02:49 |
| krishmish | vlc | 02:49 |
| TruthTaco | totem works for me except for custom fonts | 02:49 |
| aurilliance | morning all. q: it is possible to install grub on a flash drive right? | 02:49 |
| krishmish | <TruthTaco> vlc | 02:49 |
| rycar | I use vlc on all OSes now. I love that I don't have to mess with codecs | 02:49 |
| TruthTaco | vlc gives me the same problem as smplayer... it randomly pauses | 02:49 |
| billybigrigger | TruthTaco::: if your looking for a good audio player, google for an app called quod libet | 02:49 |
| rycar | TruthTaco: slow computer? | 02:49 |

| rycar | TruthTaco: is it HD content? | 02:49 |
| TruthTaco | possibly | 02:49 |
| mashedpgravy | im not trying to install from usb | 02:49 |
| krishmish | TruthTaco: vlc is probably the most comprehensive player around | 02:50 |
| aurilliance | mashedpgravy: it was for me | 02:50 |
| mashedpgravy | ah | 02:50 |
| mashedpgravy | lol | 02:50 |
| rycar | I am glad vlc hasn't tried to make stupid pretty graphical interfaces the default | 02:50 |
| TruthTaco | if it is HD video's giving me problems.. how would i fix it? | 02:50 |
| aurilliance | TruthTaco: I can't run HD vid's here either, simply because my cpu can't handle it.... | 02:50 |
| krishmish | TruthTaco: pls be specific | 02:51 |
| losher | What do people favor for an smtp client? Postfix? | 02:51 |
| rycar | TruthTaco: can you run regular videos but not HD? | 02:51 |
| mashedpgravy | so does anyone know how i manually mount my usb drive? | 02:51 |
| TruthTaco | i just got a new AMD dual core CPU | 02:51 |
| TruthTaco | new motherboard | 02:51 |
| rycar | mashedpgravy: the mount command | 02:51 |
| mashedpgravy | i dont know it | 02:51 |
| mashedpgravy | it always just popped up automatically | 02:51 |
| TruthTaco | well... my problem is video's randomly pause about 2-3 during the video | 02:51 |
| mib_hjyq55hr | i cant connect through MIKROTIK os router & port 80 is fine and evrything ok | 02:51 |

| parck | what | 02:58 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | boss_mc i am not sure | 02:58 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, looks like your port is already in use | 02:58 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: is it possible that my apache isnt really stopping when i stop it? | 02:59 |
| Sephiroth | losher: No, Windows XP is on partition #1, I put Ubuntu on Partition #2 (After formatting Partition 2 as ext3). I used to do that with 8.04 just fine without any problems. | 02:59 |

| boss_mc | ubuntunoobneedin: in terminal | 02:59 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, before doing anything, lets find out which process is using port 80 | 02:59 |
| mashedpgravy | so in terminal i typed the mount command | 03:00 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: netstat results: http://www.mibbit.com/pb/t007wg | 03:00 |
| mashedpgravy | and i got sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/New\ Volume | 03:00 |
| mashedpgravy | and it said doesnt existp | 03:00 |
| mashedpgravy | or something like that | 03:00 |
| msl | mashedpgravy, Do you have a directory created at /media/New\ Volume ? | 03:00 |
| Jackrabbit | Hey guys i got some questions, im a total noob and I wanted to get my drivers off envy can anyone take me through this? | 03:00 |
| losher | Sephiroth: sometimes grub gets its parameters wrong. If you want to, you can boot the live-cd and we'll try & fix it... | 03:01 |
| mashedpgravy | my drive is labeled NEw VOlume | 03:01 |
| mashedpgravy | so thats where it usually is | 03:01 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, could you run the netstat command as root? | 03:01 |
| mashedpgravy | New Volume | 03:01 |
| dunkelschub | Hey guys, I'm having a problem getting my usb drive to mount, here is all the info: http://pastebin.ca/1461747 any suggestions? | 03:01 |
| msl | mashedpgravy, mkdir /media/New\ Volume && mount /dev/sdb1 /media/New\ Volume | 03:01 |
| mashedpgravy | another one.. | 03:01 |
| TruthTaco | i installed vlc player and i cant get it to run | 03:01 |

| msl | You can | 03:02 |
| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log | ||
| mashedpgravy | ok | 03:02 |
| boss_mc | ubuntunoobneedin: you're using Intel Integrated graphics | 03:02 |
| losher | Sephiroth: goodok, open a terminal, type 'sudo fdisk -l' and paste the output to http://paste.ubuntu.com | 03:02 |

| mashedpgravy | it says only root can do that but i used sudo | 03:02 |
| TheDJACR | I'm runnig lxde. Whenever I open firefox, the session dies and I go back to xdm | 03:03 |
| Jackrabbit | or maybe another question is why dont I have system in the top corner? | 03:03 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | boss_mc so how do i fix it | 03:03 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, kill 5436 | 03:03 |
| boss_mc | ubuntunoobneedin: well, the drivers are installed with ubuntu, there's nothing more to do | 03:03 |
| TruthTaco | can someone give me a command that will start vlc from the command line? | 03:03 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, run netstat command as root again | 03:03 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | boss_mc when i try to run compiz it says i need drivers | 03:04 |
| dunkelschub | TruthTaco: cvlc | 03:04 |

| Sephiroth | losher: http://paste.ubuntu.com/196739/ | 03:04 |
| mashedpgravy | when i just try the make volume part it says it cannot because the file exists | 03:04 |
| TruthTaco | i cant figure how how to get the vlc interface to launch | 03:04 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, :) | 03:04 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: sadly now i must go find where ever i wrote my ssl cert password | 03:04 |
| mashedpgravy | or make directory.. | 03:04 |
| TruthTaco | vlc and cvlc dont do it | 03:04 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: but apache is startable now, thank you :) | 03:04 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, I can't help with that! | 03:04 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, np | 03:05 |
| boss_mc | TruthTaco: what messages do you get if you run vlc? | 03:05 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: do u know why this thing periodically breaks?? | 03:05 |
| ajavid | I'm new to ubuntu | 03:05 |
| ajavid | I have no idea | 03:05 |
| msl | mashedpgravy, OK... What was the error you were getting when trying to mount before? | 03:05 |
| krishmish | TruthTaco: cvlc is for use without interface...with interface, simply use <vlc> | 03:05 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: ah, well i'll just remember this process of finding it and killing it if it does it again :) buys me a month each time thanks a ton ajavid | 03:05 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, though we should figure why | 03:05 |
| TruthTaco | [00000381] main interface error: no interface module matched "screensaver,none" | 03:05 |
| losher | Sephiroth: ok, your root is on /dev/sda2, swap is on /dev/sdb5. I'd prefer a separate /home partition but that's your business. | 03:06 |

| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: my router had an error before it happened.. perhaps thats related | 03:06 |
| Jackrabbit | im sure its a simple question but how do I get the system in the menu, im sure it has me logged in as a normal user and not a super user right? | 03:06 |
| parck | Ada and I also have been possible | 03:06 |
| losher | Sephiroth: fsck /dev/sda2 ; mkdir /mnt/root; mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/root | 03:06 |
| krishmish | cvlc | 03:06 |
| ajavid | mib_badAtLinux, do you have any other webservers installed? | 03:06 |
| boss_mc | TruthTaco: ask in #videolan | 03:06 |
| ajavid | though it can't be... as your pid was apache2 | 03:06 |
| parck | no | 03:06 |
| boss_mc | TruthTaco: they'll have the answer, fac | 03:07 |
| msl | mashedpgravy, Are you sure you are specifying /media/New\ Volume and not /New\ Volume ? | 03:07 |
| boss_mc | *t | 03:07 |
| mashedpgravy | yes | 03:07 |
| mashedpgravy | type o | 03:07 |
| ajavid | look for bugs on apache2-common or apache2 mpm-fork packages on the bugtracker | 03:07 |
| Sephiroth | losher: Ok. | 03:07 |
| ajavid | this is abnormal behavriour | 03:07 |
| mashedpgravy | jamesnmandy@jamesnmandy-desktop:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/New\Volume | 03:07 |
| ajavid | there maybe a problem in the apache2 init script which dosn't properly shutdown the apache2 pid | 03:07 |
| mashedpgravy | mount: mount point /media/NewVolume does not exist | 03:07 |
| mashedpgravy | i think i forgot the space | 03:07 |
| losher | Sephiroth: Please pastebin your /mnt/root/grub/menu.lst file | 03:08 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: i dont think that i do.. the only weird thing i do is that all my sites are 443 | 03:08 |
| ajavid | so it was a stale apache2 pid which kept port 80 locked | 03:08 |
| msl | mashedpgravy, Ya, you forgot the space :) | 03:08 |
| msl | Can't escape the V | 03:08 |
| mib_badAtLinux | ajavid: and i have really strict iptable rules | 03:08 |
| mashedpgravy | ok again | 03:08 |

| Kados_ | Hey everyone... Im here to ask you a question... I have a friend that I convinced to install Ubuntu 9.04 on their machine... she was doing photo work in gimp and had all sorts of files she copied over to her desktop from her Windows Vista Parition... the files were there and she was working with them all day for two days... she shutdown her computer... and this morning went back into linux.... | 03:34 |
| Kados_ | ...She saw the files on her desktop..but when she went to open them it said that the files did not exist. She restarted just to see if that would fix the issue... now all the files are gone!! She is pretty upset about it...and I cannot for the life of me figure out what caused it. | 03:34 |
| ajavid | !ath5k | 03:35 |

| Kados_ | All I could find related to it at all was https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/349713 | 03:35 |
| ajavid | phpgunner, sudo modprobe ath5k | 03:35 |
| Kados_ | and thats only kind of similar | 03:35 |
| ajavid | phpgunner, this is the kernel module you need to run your card | 03:35 |
| ajavid | phpgunner, after sudo modprobe ath5k, check dmesg |tail -n 20 | 03:36 |
| phpgunner | WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release. | 03:36 |
| ajavid | don't use ndiswrapper | 03:36 |
| Kados_ | Help me guys... I need some insight | 03:36 |
| ajavid | there is no need to, ath5k is totally free | 03:36 |
| Kados_ | :P | 03:36 |

| musicpengiun | ajavid, whats wrong with ndiswrappers? | 03:36 |
| phpgunner | do i need to uninstall it? | 03:37 |
| ajavid | sometimes they work, sometimes they don't | 03:37 |
| ajavid | you're using windows binary driver emulation, its never good | 03:37 |
| musicpengiun | ajavid, but i couldnt get ath5k working | 03:37 |

| ajavid | georgeofthejungl, I'd imagine enable the medibuntu repository and grab it form there | 03:39 |

| phpgunner | like before i even started fooling with the drivers, i had wire hooked to it, sometimes it would show wifi points | 03:40 |
| ajavid | man iwconfig | 03:40 |
| phpgunner | so im guessing its the button | 03:41 |
| ajavid | afaik, ubuntu shoudl autoconfigure the free ath5k module and your wifi | 03:41 |
| ajavid | use network-manager in gnome | 03:41 |
| tacoscari | Hi every1, i have a problem when i restart my computer after enabling the nvidia driver 180, Can any1 tell how to disable this in the console(im a newbie) Sorry to be such a pain , any1 knows how to fix this or disable it, to get the desktop working | 03:41 |

| ajavid | Sephiroth, afaik, error 17 is easy to fix | 03:43 |
| musicpengiun | ajavid, i bought this drive less than a year ago | 03:43 |

| ajavid | look at what error 17 means first | 03:44 |
| bastidrazor | http://madberry.org/2008/11/how-to-get-atheros-ar242x-to-work-on-810-intrepid-ibex/ to whomever needed the ath5k driver for ibex. | 03:44 |
| losher | Sephiroth: crap. In that case, I'm out of ideas. I can only suggest you start googling for 'grub error 17' and trying some of the suggestions. Some people have changed bios settings, others have edited grub's device.map | 03:44 |
| ajavid | Sephiroth, is your / ext4? | 03:44 |
| phpgunner | where would i go to figure out how to use my wifi button for ubuntu? | 03:44 |
| jezi22 | it say kstartupconfig4 error or something | 03:44 |

| Sephiroth | ajavid: Ok, I know what it means, but what I don't know is why Grub can't read from an ext3 partition?!?! I had 8.04 LTS on here on ext3 and it worked just fine. | 03:45 |
| tacoscari | ajavid: i did it , and still have the problem, it stays in the black screen that is doing the cheking | 03:45 |
| ajavid | Sephiroth, coudl be a device map isse in grub | 03:45 |
| ajavid | Sephiroth, google for common causes of grub error 17 | 03:46 |

| edbian | phpgunner: You have stumbled upon a very difficult task. I do know though that if you have the correct driver installed you DO find the networks. Otherwise it is a driver problem (unless the device physically doesn't work) | 03:53 |
| phpgunner | but can't use it, so just upset with the pos :( | 03:53 |
| ajavid | tacoscari, please do not msg me | 03:54 |

| edbian | phpgunner: Look at your list of channels. | 03:59 |
| ajavid | tacoscari, if that part is not in your file, it means Xorg is picking up nvidia automatically, and you now need to override that in xorg.conf by specifying a diff driver | 04:00 |

| ajavid | tacoscari, you can install links2 or elinks, links, lynx, w3m, use one of those browsers to go to http://paste.debian.net/ <- at the bottom is a place where you can type in the location of /etc/X11/xorg.conf and it will upload it to the pastebin and give you a link, giv me that link | 04:05 |
| ajavid | tacoscari, then i'll tell you what to do to it | 04:05 |

| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, can you delete any useless. info at all? movies music etc ? or can you back some of them up.? | 04:35 |
| Ghoti | CleanLaundry: look at libhtml-lint-perl perhaps? | 04:35 |
| gaelfx | edbian: it's ok, I don't either, so not a big deal that you don't ;) just hope someone has an idea | 04:35 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | coz it does not seem to delete anything at all i have tried | 04:35 |
| CleanLaundry | Ghoti, gotcha, thanks | 04:35 |
| Ghoti | CleanLaundry: My pleasure :) | 04:35 |
| gaelfx | I think what I need to find is the preference file regarding which windowing method to use and try to change it back to classic | 04:36 |
| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, did you try sudo rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/files/* | 04:36 |
| bastidrazor | gaelfx, you mean like metacity --replace ? | 04:36 |
| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, in terminal ^^^ | 04:36 |

| Kados_ | Can anyone help me with an issue? | 04:37 |
| saran | hi | 04:37 |
| Ghoti | Ricochet: or, in a terminal, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 04:37 |
| Ghoti | Ricochet: (assuming GNOME) | 04:37 |
| ubuntunoobneedin | coz_ what was it supposed to do that gave me no errors | 04:37 |
| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, if that doesnt work open the terminal and gksu nautilus then maneuver to the location in home and see if you can delete them then | 04:37 |
| InCrypto | Ghoti, the fact tht u cannot ssh to it somehow looks like a NIC throttling issue ...but then again u mentioned u cannot physically access the box which is weird indeed ...wat does cat /var/log/messages have to say | 04:38 |
| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, that should have removed all files under Trash/files | 04:38 |
| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, however when you gksy nautilus it will open the root diretory so click File system then home then your name etc etc | 04:38 |
| gaelfx | bastidrazor: what will that do? | 04:38 |
| coz_ | ubuntunoobneedin, sorry gksudo nautilus | 04:39 |

| gaelfx | bastidrazor: ok, thanks, I'll give it a go | 04:39 |
| InCrypto | Ricochet, did u make a backup ? | 04:39 |
| Ricochet | actually does anyone have a moment that they could help me getting ubuntu working on this computer? | 04:39 |

| Jackrabbit | any ideas how to make my sound work lol | 04:40 |
| bastidrazor | Ricochet, this will make a new xorg.. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 04:40 |
| ziroday | Ricochet: you can delete/move your xorg.conf as its not needed anymore (this will get you an autoconfigured/default setup) | 04:40 |

| jumbers | So i herd u leik Mudkipz? | 04:41 |
| gaelfx | bastidrazor: well, I created a launcher on the desktop and put 'metacity --replace' as the command, but when I run it, nothing seems to change | 04:41 |
| Ricochet | ziroday how do i delete it? | 04:41 |
| bastidrazor | gaelfx, you're probably using metacity already.. what are your original troubles? | 04:42 |
| ziroday | Ricochet: do sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.old (this will move it, so you have it in case you need it) | 04:42 |
| gaelfx | bastidrazor: well, when I startup, I only get desktop, no panels or UNR nav windows, so I basically can only use the computer by creating launchers on the desktop, which is kind of a pain | 04:43 |

| ravi__ | you hacked who fu*ked ur sister in bed tightly......... | 04:48 |
| bastidrazor | gaelfx, if on a reboot they are gone again you can add gnome-panel to sessions | 04:49 |
| Ghoti | extor: you might look into reworking your script to use notify-osd, which I believe has replaced that package | 04:49 |

She saw the files on her desktop..but when she... | 05:03 |
| Kados_ | ...went to open them it said that the files did not exist. She restarted just to see if that would fix the issue... now all the files are gone!! She is pretty upset about it...and I cannot for the life of me figure out what caused it. | 05:03 |

| phpgunner | WARNING: All config files need .conf: /etc/modprobe.d/ndiswrapper, it will be ignored in a future release. | 05:15 |
| phpgunner | Anyone ever come across that error before? | 05:15 |
| Ghoti | ExMachina: Blender? | 05:15 |
| scott_ino2 | brian5656, closest thing is probably blender, maya (they make a linux version) | 05:16 |
| ExMachina | Ghoti, is it free? | 05:16 |
| scott_ino2 | ExMachina, | 05:16 |
| digerati | Is there a way to route traffic on a certain port to one of multiple interfaces? i.e. 23 goes out eth0, 21 goes out eth1 | 05:16 |
| scott_ino2 | not brian heh | 05:16 |
| Ghoti | ExMachina: Yes: http://blender.org | 05:16 |
| Slade | Is there a repository for openoffice for ubuntu for updates and such? | 05:16 |
| brian5656 | The program 'root' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 05:17 |
| J-_ | 05:17 | |
| brian5656 | sudo apt-get install root-system-bin | 05:17 |
| brian5656 | bash: root: command not found | 05:17 |
| brian5656 | brian@Brians:~$ | 05:17 |
| scott_ino2 | ExMachina, Autodesk maya also has a linux version but you'll have to shell out dollars | 05:17 |
| FloodBot2 | brian5656: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:17 |
| Killeroid | digerati: you should probably ask that on ##linux | 05:17 |
| brian5656 | thats what it said | 05:17 |
| Kasm279 | how can i switch to a USB soundcard quickly and back to my laptop's internal one? | 05:17 |
| digerati | Killeroid: thank you | 05:17 |
| LiraNuna | hello, I can't seem to send mail as root using /usr/bin/mail. normal user can, anyone knows what possible problems may be? | 05:17 |
| phpgunner | brian5656: what exactly are you trying to do? | 05:17 |
| BeatlesFan | hi all | 05:18 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: What does happen when you try? | 05:18 |
| ScottG489 | How do I change what Desktop Manager starts? I am just familiar with how to do it in Gentoo by going into conf.d and editing xdm. I am in a cli environment now btw | 05:18 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: any errors? | 05:18 |
| phpgunner | LiraNuna: Should you be sending email as root? | 05:18 |
| LiraNuna | Ghoti, silent, as if it was successful | 05:18 |
| scott_ino2 | brian5656, should be able to just select whichever device you want to use in volume control | 05:18 |
| LiraNuna | phpgunner, apcupsd is root (for shutdown) and it needs to notify | 05:18 |
| scott_ino2 | bahh again... sorry brian | 05:18 |
| Kasm279 | how can i switch to a USB soundcard quickly and back to my laptop's internal one? | 05:18 |
| phpgunner | LiraNuna: Just asking :) | 05:18 |
| LiraNuna | phpgunner, I don't know any way to run unescalated apcupsd | 05:19 |
| scott_ino2 | Kasm279, you should be able to just select whichever device you're using in volume control | 05:19 |
| BeatlesFan | when you update Ubuntu version to the next release, do you have to reinstall all your apps? | 05:19 |
| brian5656 | im trying to install konquil-icious | 05:19 |
| scott_ino2 | I've done this before with a USB soundcard | 05:19 |
| Ghoti | BeatlesFan: generally not. | 05:19 |
| LiraNuna | phpgunner, I'd love to jail it, but it needs to run various tests, shutdown the system and notify | 05:19 |
| Fretegi | got a really stupid question | 05:19 |
| Fretegi | how do u PM in xchat? | 05:19 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: can you have apcupsd call a setuid scrips that send the email? | 05:19 |
| phpgunner | brian5656: have you tried "sudo apt-get install konquil-icious" without quotes? | 05:19 |
| Guest53412 | linux noob here with a basic problem | 05:19 |
| LiraNuna | Fretegi, right click on username's nick, open dialog menu | 05:20 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: sort of an ugly sidestep, but if it works, it works, right? | 05:20 |
| BeatlesFan | ok, what about drivers? In my case I'm using a prior version of the Intel 82865G graphics driver... | 05:20 |
| brian5656 | not yet | 05:20 |
| Kasm279 | scott_ino2: im on xubuntu, #xubuntu has no idea, and i brought up the mixer and changed it, but no go | 05:20 |
| LiraNuna | Ghoti, that what it does, it uses a scipr | 05:20 |
| Fretegi | im a MIRC user that just is making the transition to linux | 05:20 |
| Guest53412 | how can I install winamp? I'm running kubuntu | 05:20 |
| Fretegi | oh wow lol that was easy thanks | 05:20 |
| LiraNuna | Ghoti, or do you mean use su to escalate level? | 05:20 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: or sudo, to send the mail from a uid with whom the mail program works as expected | 05:21 |
| phpgunner | brian5656: If that don't work, maybe try snyaptic package manager under system-administration | 05:21 |
| LiraNuna | that'd be a dirty hack and will just avoid the problem | 05:21 |
| scott_ino2 | Kasm279, does your usb soundcard takeover upon reboot if plugged in? | 05:21 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: That's what I said :p | 05:21 |
| Kasm279 | scott_ino2: no | 05:21 |
| phpgunner | Guest53412: probably need wine for that | 05:21 |
| naught101 | does ubuntu have a custom version of GNU find? | 05:21 |
| scott_ino2 | Kasm279, have you gotten in working first in xubuntu or no? | 05:22 |
| Ghoti | LiraNuna: Generally, I have my scripts talk directly to an SMTP server :p | 05:22 |
| LiraNuna | Ghoti, those scripts are automated for apcupsd | 05:22 |
| phpgunner | Guest53412: have you tried looking for an alternite native ubuntu program? | 05:22 |
| SuperMiguel | how do i find my sistem cpu/memory? is there a command for that? | 05:22 |
| LiraNuna | they generate the message+headers on the error | 05:22 |
| randall | A minute ago my wifi was working fine, then i installed a few packages and rebooted and now when i try to connect it just sits there trying to connect but it never does. | 05:22 |
| LiraNuna | SuperMiguel, cat /proc/cpu | 05:22 |
| LiraNuna | SuperMiguel, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 05:23 |
| Kasm279 | scott_ino2: no, it worked in winXP though :x | 05:23 |
| LiraNuna | (sorry for that) | 05:23 |
| SuperMiguel | isnts there a sysinfo command | 05:23 |
| phpgunner | Guest53412: like Amarok? | 05:23 |
| SuperMiguel | something like that that would display my ram, my cpu | 05:23 |
| digitaltao | /join #austin | 05:23 |
| SuperMiguel | averything in one command | 05:23 |
| Ghoti | SuperMiguel: 'top', and look at the top of your screen | 05:23 |
| scott_ino2 | Kasm279, I'd first suggest you find out if your USB soundcard is supported, I know for a fact some of them are as I've used them in the past. I would check the Alsa docs and see what's supported | 05:23 |
| LiraNuna | SuperMiguel, oh you mean a script for Xchat? | 05:23 |
| SuperMiguel | no | 05:24 |
| scott_ino2 | Kasm279, also.. let me find an email i had for when we had to do just what you describe | 05:24 |
| LiraNuna | "Postfix will not deliver mail as root. Instead, Postfix runs procmail (or whatever) as nobody." | 05:25 |
| mohan_ | hi.. | 05:25 |
| mohan_ | i am using ubuntu studio RT kernel.. | 05:25 |
| Fretegi | hi mohan | 05:25 |
| mohan_ | i am trying to do remaster of my system.. | 05:25 |
| mohan_ | how ever if i boot into the dvd it shows error.. | 05:26 |
| digerati | git yer master on! (sorry had to) | 05:26 |
| randall | what does it mean when my wifi card can pick up wireless networks but isnt able to connect to them | 05:26 |
| mohan_ | like before booting itself it throws to minimal terminal.. (donno what to say) | 05:26 |
| Ghoti | mohan_: you said it shows an error. What does it say? | 05:26 |
| mohan_ | and this is the error cp:cannot creat /root/var/og/ : no such file or directory and such... | 05:27 |
| Fretegi | what happens when u try to connect randall? | 05:27 |
| qarl | Hey guys, when I lock my screen in a twinview setup, only the primary monitor gets locked. The other one is completely usable. Anyway to fix this? | 05:27 |
| mohan_ | and also mount:mountiner/proc on /oot/proc failed: no such file or directory. No init found. | 05:27 |
| mohan_ | Try using init=bootrag. | 05:27 |
| randall | Fretegi, it does the swirling green/blue icon but nothing else, it never connects. it askes me for a password and i type it in but after that nothing | 05:28 |
| daftword | **can anyone help with configuring Totem to watch DVB channels | 05:28 |
| daftword | ? | 05:28 |
| Ghoti | randall: sometimes I get that, and rebooting my WAP fixes it for a couple days. | 05:28 |
| mohan_ | Ghoti: any idea? | 05:28 |
| Fretegi | well could be a few things... | 05:28 |
| randall | I just installed a bunch of programs on a fresh install of 9.04 | 05:28 |
| randall | then rebooted | 05:29 |
| Ghoti | mohan_: it sounds like your mount points on the remaster aren't set up properly.. I"ve never rolled my own BootCD, so I don't have much advice to give beyond that I"m afraid | 05:29 |
| randall | i had wifi before after installing the drivers | 05:29 |
| mohan_ | Ghoti: oh.. | 05:29 |
| Fretegi | but im new to linux lol. are you? are u using the right security protocol for the password? | 05:29 |
| Fretegi | that is one difference from windows that i have noticed | 05:29 |
| mohan_ | anybody? | 05:29 |
| mohan_ | and also one more problem.. | 05:30 |
| randall | Fretegi, yeah correct password and protocol which i was using before | 05:30 |
| mohan_ | if i boot into live cd.. it doesn't recognise the network.. | 05:30 |
| Fretegi | check the proxy settings | 05:30 |
| mohan_ | whats the command to activate it? | 05:30 |
| randall | mohan_, thats a driver issue isnt it? | 05:30 |
| mohan_ | no.. sometime it works.. | 05:31 |
| randall | mohaun_ unless you mean wired network lol | 05:31 |
| mohan_ | sometime doesn't | 05:31 |
| mohan_ | yes ethernet network. | 05:31 |
| mohan_ | link deactivates.. | 05:31 |
| randall | Fretegi, how do you "reboot" wap? | 05:31 |
| mohan_ | ifup eth0 doesn't work.. | 05:32 |
| BeatlesFan | mohan_, you have it set up for Dynamic IP or Static IP? | 05:32 |
| pspsamspsp | is this working? | 05:32 |
| mohan_ | BeatlesFan : can't set those parameters.. | 05:32 |
| mohan_ | BeatlesFan : card is disabled.. | 05:33 |
| mohan_ | BeatlesFan : but typing ifconfig shows my card./. | 05:33 |

| naftilos76 | hi to everyone, i just do not know where exactly to ask the following question so i'll just ask it here as it has to do with a lot of stuff! What should i be using in order to keep updated at all times all the folders of my Ruby on Rails tree on the server side? I'm using netbeans 6.5! Does CVS or Subversion do this <updating the files on the server side> besides version control? | 05:36 |
| randall | Fretegi, i have no idea what that is lol | 05:36 |
| Fretegi | lol k | 05:36 |
| Fretegi | how do u connect to net? | 05:36 |
| Fretegi | normal cable modem and a router? | 05:36 |
| randall | Fretegi, through wifi? | 05:36 |
| simoncpu | hello, anyone here plays pingus? | 05:36 |
| simoncpu | what's the shortcut keys for the penguins abilities? | 05:36 |
| cattellar | I have no sound, I just have sound from the internal speaker, I think my card is not being recognized, what can I do? | 05:37 |
| decaprime | cattellar are you using an xfi card, i'm in a similar situation | 05:37 |
| Fretegi | can u connect to ANY network is where i was going, such as a home wireless router? | 05:37 |
| bastidrazor | cattellar, internal speaker.. like a speaker beep? | 05:37 |
| cattellar | like a very bad quality one | 05:38 |
| randall | Fretegi, oh, I am connected through a lan cable to my router, which is connected to my modem. my wifi is the only problem | 05:38 |
| LiraNuna | can root fake uid? | 05:38 |
| LiraNuna | without su username -c ' ... ' | 05:38 |
| mohan_ | anybody have idea on remastersys? | 05:38 |
| cattellar | bastidrazor, decaprime lspci detects my creative labs SB X-Fi card | 05:38 |
| Fretegi | so have u been able to connect to ANY wireless source at all since this install? | 05:38 |
| randall | Fretegi, yes, two other laptops are currently using the wifi | 05:39 |
| randall | Fretegi, oh but not with this laptop | 05:39 |
| Fretegi | lol no this computer that is having the issue? | 05:39 |
| Fretegi | lol ok | 05:39 |
| Fretegi | go to system | 05:39 |
| Fretegi | preferences | 05:39 |
| cattellar | decaprime, what do you think it is? | 05:39 |
| Fretegi | network proxy | 05:39 |
| Fretegi | is "direct internet connection" checked? | 05:40 |
| stealth- | I cant get audio out of firefox flash, same with opera. Any help? | 05:40 |
| randall | Fretegi, yes | 05:40 |
| Fretegi | k | 05:40 |

| thyri | my brother dcp-135c printer is unable to give printouts...though i installed the driver but even it shows receiving data in printer but nothing happenes...no papers comes out....any idea | 05:41 |
| BeatlesFan | randall, try turning the WEP off and see if you can connect | 05:41 |
| randall | Fretegi, yes, both my router, and several others | 05:41 |
| decaprime | cattellar, honestly i've been on ubuntu for 2 days from what I can tell by default there isn't support but you can build drivers from creative that are supposedly 64bit asla drivers- i've done this and it certainly recognizes the xfi card but it blares the audio so loud its unusable and doesn't seem to respond to changing the volumne | 05:41 |
| randall | BeatlesFan, how should I do that? | 05:41 |
| BeatlesFan | randall, you have to go to the PC that's connected to the router | 05:41 |
| randall | BeatlesFan, this one has a wired connection to the router as well | 05:42 |
| cattellar | decaprime, have you seen other solutions online? | 05:42 |
| BeatlesFan | randall, ok, gotcha | 05:42 |
| decaprime | Speaking of which, that is basically my own question: I have the latest xfi drivers (Nov 08) and I can't seem to control their volume | 05:42 |
| naftilos76 | Can anybody help me with the following? I just do not know where exactly to ask the following question so i'll just ask it here as it has to do with a lot of stuff! What should i be using in order to keep updated at all times all the folders of my Ruby on Rails tree on the server side? I'm using netbeans 6.5! Does CVS or Subversion do this <updating the files on the server side> besides version control? | 05:42 |

| mobi-sheep | glicks: Ubuntu Warty Warthog | 05:43 |
| Fretegi | k, dumb question, but when tryting to connect via wireless are u also plugged into a port? | 05:43 |

| Fretegi | what kind of lappy randal? | 05:43 |
| randall | Fretegi, yes, i ran a lan wire to the router that i am trying to connect to wirelessly | 05:43 |

| donkeyman | chello? anyone know how to unrar a set of volumes via command line? | 05:44 |

| Gigacore | hi guys | 05:44 |
| mobi-sheep | glicks: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Netbook_Remix | 05:44 |
| randall | Fretegi, i tried with no success | 05:44 |
| fuffalo | is it possible to get amarok to move all your music to one location as you add it to your library? | 05:44 |
| Fretegi | k | 05:44 |
| n3f | hi everyone. | 05:44 |
| Fretegi | well i have two ideas | 05:45 |
| Gigacore | i just installed amarok 2 on my ubuntu 9.04 but I am not able to play any tracks. all codecs are properly installed.. what's the problem? | 05:45 |
| Fretegi | 1. i have straight ubuntu working on my laptop just fine.... | 05:45 |
| n3f | I need to install Xilinx Verilog on my ubuntu hardy. Should I use wine or virtual machine? | 05:45 |
| Fretegi | i had to down grade to 8.10 tho due to hardware issues that may infact be plaguing u as well | 05:46 |
| randall | n3f, i guess try wine first | 05:46 |
| glicks | mobi-sheep, is that the desktop that comes with it? can i just have the regular desktop if i want? the interface seems kina strange to me | 05:46 |
| Gigacore | i just installed amarok 2 on my ubuntu 9.04 but I am not able to play any tracks. all codecs are properly installed.. what's the problem? | 05:46 |
| Fretegi | the other is to type "unset http_proxy" in the terminal | 05:46 |
| bishop | randell same problems here | 05:46 |
| Fretegi | to ensure that no proxy configs are active | 05:46 |
| mobi-sheep | glicks: Do you have any Ubuntu running -- the one not associated with your netbook? | 05:47 |
| randall | Fretegi, whats confusing is that it was working earlier. i messed up by installing something i think but i cant seem to pin point what it is | 05:47 |
| n3f | randall, i googled wine for their database applications, but it seems they do not support xilinx verilog. | 05:47 |
| Fretegi | how is ur video? | 05:47 |
| randall | n3f, then i guess you have to emulate windoze lol | 05:47 |
| Fretegi | u say u got 9.04 randal? how is ur video? | 05:47 |
| glicks | mobi-sheep, no, currently my netbook is running xp only | 05:47 |
| randall | Fretegi, works fine | 05:48 |
| chinmaya | i would like to change the text of the desktop font....? | 05:48 |
| donkeyman | Anyone - how do you unrar a set of volumes from command line? | 05:48 |
| Fretegi | type lspci in the terminal randal | 05:48 |
| Fretegi | is it an ati video card? | 05:48 |
| mobi-sheep | glicks: You can have a regular Desktop on your netbook though. I have a netbook myself and UNR weren't for me. :) | 05:48 |
| randall | Fretegi, http://pastebin.com/f63533ced | 05:48 |
| chinmaya | anyone--- how to change the text of the desktop font? | 05:49 |
| decaprime | Aparently with the xfi drivers I can only get the audio to be at 100% or off- any info on getting the volume to be adjustable? | 05:49 |
| glicks | mobi-sheep, but the regular desktop eats through the eeepc battery doent it | 05:49 |
| glicks | and has wifi glitches | 05:49 |
| n3f | randall, Any other options aside using virtualbox? | 05:49 |
| randall | Fretegi, I am fairly confident that if i re-install 9.04 the wifi would work again, but im trying to avoid this lol | 05:49 |
| BeatlesFan | chinmaya, System>Preferences>Appearance | 05:49 |
| randall | n3f, what is teh program again? | 05:49 |
| n3f | randall, xilinx verilog | 05:50 |
| cuddlefish | ARGGGH! | 05:50 |
| chinmaya | it shows the font style not color | 05:50 |
| chinmaya | BEatlesFan | 05:50 |
| cuddlefish | This thing keeps throwing errors! | 05:50 |
| mobi-sheep | glicks: When you install Ubuntu for first time, there [may] be some glicks to work with. After you are done with that, you'll be fine. Heck, the glicks may be long gone already since many people probably have same netbook as yours... running Ubuntu already. | 05:51 |
| Fretegi | what do ur logs say? | 05:51 |
| randall | n3f, isnt that a linux program? | 05:51 |
| randall | Fretegi, which logs? | 05:51 |
| Fretegi | system logs | 05:51 |
| LiraNuna | can root execute a command as another user without su? (su needs an active terminal) | 05:51 |
| mobi-sheep | glicks: Nothing you can do about battery drain except trying to trim down services and lower monitor display and such. | 05:51 |
| BeatlesFan | Chinmaya, go into Themes, Details, Customize | 05:51 |
| randall | Fretegi, where are those? | 05:51 |
| n3f | randall, nope, I do not think so. We are using it on windows in our uni. | 05:51 |
| glicks | mobi-sheep, so i can run regular ubuntu jaunty on my netbook? | 05:51 |
| BeatlesFan | chinmaya: in the same menu | 05:51 |
| detach- | hey guys, are there any alternative tools for serial consoles apart from minicom? | 05:51 |
| mobi-sheep | glicks: Yes. | 05:52 |
| rob_p | n3f, Not sure how comprehensive the Linux design tools talked about here are, but maybe would be of interest to VHDL guys: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6857 | 05:52 |
| Fretegi | again i am new to linux so i am trying to learn to nvaigate, but i am computer savvy.. we should be able to see why ur card is not connecting | 05:52 |

| glicks | how do you put the 1000he eeepc in low power mode in ubuntu? | 07:25 |
| Boohbah | Tensai_: users should have write access to their home directory by default | 07:25 |
| glicks | like disable bluetooth and stuff | 07:25 |
| bastidrazor | Tensai_, you could allow everyone to have write access .. not the smartest route but your call | 07:25 |
| Tensai_ | I created a link to a samba share in each users home directory - how do I let them write to it as well as read? | 07:26 |
| spargonaut | no. I just got a cable ISP installed today and it will only give an IP address to authenticated mac addresses | 07:26 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: Thank You :) | 07:26 |
| spargonaut | so I'm trying to clone the mac address of another machine from my firewall, but I'm not sure if i should do it in /etc/network/interfaces or dhclient.conf or somewhere else | 07:26 |
| spargonaut | btw, i'm running shorewall as a firewall | 07:27 |
| lolololol | is it possible to install ubuntu on a machine and then use it on some other one using the same hard disk? | 07:28 |
| spargonaut | yes | 07:28 |
| spargonaut | although you might have to reconfigure the xserver | 07:28 |

| juninhu | hi there | 07:29 |
| lolololol | spargonaut: anything other than screen resolution to be changed? | 07:29 |
| spargonaut | ahem, lololololol, yes but you might have to reconfigure your xserver | 07:29 |
| juninhu | someone can help me to install Nvidia 7200GS? | 07:29 |
| spargonaut | uhh, not that i can think of off the top of my head | 07:29 |
| spargonaut | you might need to change the driver that your using | 07:29 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, You can spoof the authenticated MAC by adding a line such as, "hwaddress ether 01:02:03:04:05:06" to your network config. | 07:29 |
| spargonaut | rob, are you talking about in interfaces? | 07:29 |
| lolololol | spargonaut: k. thanks. byebye | 07:29 |
| spargonaut | or dhclient.conf | 07:29 |
| spargonaut | ? | 07:30 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, /etc/network/interfaces, yes. | 07:30 |
| spargonaut | ok | 07:30 |
| spargonaut | awesome | 07:30 |
| spargonaut | much thanks | 07:30 |

| juninhu | please... someone help me... my Nvidia 7200GS dont work in Ubuntu | 07:30 |
| bastidrazor | Tensai_, with samba i'm unsure how that would work. | 07:30 |
| lsemple_ | Hi, I recently had a power failure, and one of my drives now is not able to mount, and when I try fsck /dev/sdb1 I get http://pastebin.ca/1461905 | 07:30 |
| spargonaut | sorry. | 07:30 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, I had to do the same thing on a cable connection a while back... | 07:30 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, Never had any issues with it... | 07:30 |
| Tensai_ | I created a link to a samba share in the home directory of an SFTP user but they don't have write access. Anybody know how I might do that? | 07:31 |
| bastidrazor | Tensai_, well.. the folder you've linked will have to allow each user write.. so the linked share will have to have 'everyone' allowed write access | 07:31 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: hmm also just noticed but you don't have ident enabled ... | 07:31 |
| spargonaut | rob_j: yea. I knew it needed to be done although i've never done it from my firewall, i always had my linksys router do it. my network has since beefed up | 07:31 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: does your setup look something like http://miyu.hopto.org:7020/setup.png ? | 07:31 |
| Tensai_ | ok thank you | 07:31 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: i don't know why ident doesn't work .. my son said he's not going to look | 07:32 |
| spargonaut | will that work even though I'm using that interface with dhcp ( sorry for all the question, i have to kill my internet connection to implement it ) | 07:32 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, Might as well utilize the power of Linux for your firewall. Get rid of the Linksys... or put dd-wrt or tomato firmware on it (both Linux-based). | 07:32 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: well there are two obvious reasons and a million not obvious | 07:32 |
| lsemple_ | I guess I have a bad superblock, anyone know how to fix this ? | 07:32 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: if you run 'ps | grep ident' does it print out anything? | 07:33 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: i'll try that | 07:33 |
| pigol | i have lost my taskbar after upgrading to 9.04 | 07:33 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, Hmmm... never tried it with dhcp. But it couldn't hurt to try. | 07:33 |
| juninhu | =/ | 07:33 |
| pigol | any suggestions ???? | 07:33 |
| spargonaut | rob_j, yea, the linksys ( now running dd-wrt ) has been isolated to a seperate subnet in a dmz, i have shorewall running on a dedicated firewall atm | 07:33 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: ~$ ps | grep ident | 07:33 |
| chalcedony | ~$ | 07:33 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, I had a, "dynamic" IP but my provide never once changed the IP it issued so I just put it in as static and it worked that way for over a year. | 07:34 |
| bastidrazor | pigol, what version of ubuntu? | 07:34 |

| bastidrazor | pigol, are you meaning the top and bottom panel on the screen? | 07:34 |
| pigol | bottom panel | 07:34 |
| pigol | actually i was using avant-manager in 8.04 | 07:35 |
| spargonaut | rob_j: yea, thats what i've found to be the case in the past, but the first hop in my network was always the linksys in the past. at this point, my network is too large and convoluted to go rearranging things | 07:35 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: so you probably don't even have an ident daemon running ... | 07:35 |
| bastidrazor | pigol, click on the top panel and add panel .. then you can drag the panel tot he bottom and add things you want on that panel | 07:35 |
| rob_p | spargonaut, Just be ready to troubleshoot a sudden network outtage due to new IP reallocation if it happens. I figured it was worth the relatively small chance. Never did happen. | 07:35 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: if he controls the firewall, is that something that would even be possible for me to rectifiy? we HAD it running | 07:35 |
| bastidrazor | pigol, cairo-dock may be a good replacement for AWN | 07:35 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: well if it's not running the firewall won't matter | 07:36 |
| lampliter | I could use some help with disk performance issues on 8.10. every time an application starts hitting the disk hard, the laptop freezes and windows grey out | 07:36 |
| Khisanth | chalcedony: but if it IS running the firewall will also have to let it through | 07:36 |
| lampliter | the disk is sata and a modern one but this is weird | 07:36 |
| spargonaut | rob_p: yea, totally. i've got a backup network in place atm to keep the waf high, so if there is a problem, i can easily switch back | 07:37 |
| spargonaut | rob_p: alright, i'm kicking off now, going to attempt the fix. I'll report back progress immediatly after. Thanks for the input | 07:38 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: ty for telling me about it, it's something to look at after i figure out how to to connect better with the BNC maybe? | 07:38 |

| ccooke | Adola: right. I've not used that myself, but I can show you how to build the chroot easily | 07:57 |

| georgeofthejungl | gaveen: im installing google earth, and it has a check box for "install a symbolic link onto the path" and then there is a text box preceded by "Binary path:". | 08:02 |
| gaveen | georgeofthejungl, better to tick that. Which means you'll be able to launch google earth from a terminal also after the installation. Try /usr/local/bin as the binary path | 08:02 |
| chalcedony | the S line is the BNC - always the same ip | 08:02 |
| cwillu | darkdelusions, system | preferences | encryption and keyrings has the option I believe | 08:02 |

| Khisanth | "S lines will be the same" | 08:03 |
| chalcedony | Khisanth: you're right - i read it backwards | 08:03 |

| rob_p | spargonaut, From a server perspective, there's not too much difference with Debian, especially since Ubuntu is a Debian-derivative. | 08:15 |

| rob_p | WBC, Why NTFS? | 08:22 |
| WBC | rob_p, going to install windows XP on it | 08:22 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: what do you mean "sound"? pulseaudio does most of the sound on a stock system. | 08:22 |
| Neconide | because sometimes flash will freeze, and loop an annoying half second of a sound over and over. | 08:22 |

| ectospasm | Hoss: try padevchooser | 08:24 |
| spargonaut | WBC: *sigh* open a command line, type: 'fdisk /dev/sdb' and read the menu options to figure out what you need to do. sorry, you'll need to be a big boy for this part. partition your disk, and give it the ID for NTFS. then use the command: mkfs to create the filesystem. you will need more flags and arguments to format it correctly. try: man mkfs and work on some of your reading skills | 08:24 |

| Neconide | ectospasm: when upgrading does it just update the sys files or does it need to reconstruct the OS -- wiping all data? | 08:28 |
| rob_p | openros, You shouldn't lose coms with your local subnet, even if a new default route is pushed to you from the VPN server. If you are, then something is misconfigured. | 08:28 |

| moochoo | ectospasm: I am able to smb://192.168.1.50/ and view the shared files on the xp box... | 08:31 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: I have more than enough HDD space to hold it | 08:31 |
| rob_p | openros, Well, sometimes that is a constraint purposely put in place by the admin for security reasons. Did you build the VPN server or do you admin it? | 08:31 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: not unless you have a chunk of free space | 08:32 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: so make another wubi part, and go! | 08:32 |
| openros | rob_p, my admin did it. | 08:32 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: Well I have 700GB free in this partition, would 'Unallocated' be free HDD space or is that a partition within itself | 08:32 |
| ectospasm | unallocated to any existing partition. | 08:33 |
| thurein | ubuntu 9.04 , compaq cq 45, sound driver doesnt work. any solution?? | 08:33 |
| Hoss | ectospasm: is it bad that pulseaudio isnt installed? I am installing it atm, I just remember there being some issues with having it. | 08:33 |
| ectospasm | Now, gparted can probably resize it, but I don't know how well that will work with wubi | 08:33 |
| scarra | So is it possible to use a zune with ubuntu | 08:33 |
| openros | rob_p, can i create a virtual connection like, which uses the local network, and the browsers to use that virtual conneciton | 08:33 |
| rob_p | openros, My first comment applies to a, "generic install" of say, OpenVPN. Unless you take extra steps to further lock things down, you should continue to have access. | 08:33 |
| ectospasm | Hoss: pulseaudio is the default in Ubuntu since at least 8.10 | 08:33 |
| MBR | How do i install GRUB? | 08:34 |
| ectospasm | Hoss: AFAIK you have to consciously remove it not to use it. | 08:34 |
| ectospasm | funny name, asking a question like that MBR | 08:34 |
| lich0r | good night guys, may all of your questions be answered :p | 08:34 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: gparted doesn't allow the creation of new partitions, only partition tables. | 08:34 |
| rob_p | openros, But really, there are so many ways to configure and limit the end user's access when it comes to VPN. | 08:34 |
| ectospasm | Is there a dog? | 08:34 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: explain to me the difference. | 08:34 |
| moochoo | anybody with any ubuntu-->xp networking experience available to help? | 08:35 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: A partition table is your table of partitions. I.E. /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 they all exist within the partition table. | 08:35 |
| moochoo | i'll love you forever | 08:35 |
| Hoss | ectospasm: Yeah, I think I had to remove it for something, beta flash plug-in, or getting ventrillo to work or something, Dont remember, I had my USB head set as default audio device and everything worked. I got rid of them, and no sound. | 08:35 |
| Adola | I'm installing deboostrap, can someone help me install some stuff with it? | 08:35 |
| thurein | I get sound problem on ubuntu 9.04 with compaq CQ 45 | 08:35 |
| MBR | Does anyone knwo how to uninstall linux along with grub and return to windows without formatting anything? | 08:35 |
| openros | rob_p, if i disconnect from the vpn, i have a perfect internet access. It means my internet is always available.... | 08:35 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: and how do you add partitions? By editing the partition table! | 08:35 |
| thurein | any way to solve it?? | 08:35 |
| ectospasm | thurein: be more specific as to what your sound problem is | 08:35 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: right but gparted only lets you create _new_ partition tables | 08:35 |
| rob_p | openros, With out knowing the VPN server configuration, you will have to get with your admin for assistance. All we can do is guess... | 08:35 |
| kj4 | MBR boot the XP disk and do the fixmbr command | 08:36 |
| Hoss | ectospasm: going to try a restart. | 08:36 |
| * moochoo raises hand - "pick me! pick me!" | 08:36 | |
| ectospasm | Neconide: gparted *should* allow you to resize partitions, IIRC | 08:36 |
| thurein | ectospasm: i am totally beginner, so how to specify my sound card?? | 08:36 |
| MBR | kj4: problem is i dont have a disk :( | 08:36 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: it's a relatively easy task in windows vista but seems to be just as hard in winXP as it is in Ubuntu | 08:36 |
| kj4 | MBR or you can dowload the super grub disk and it can repair the xp mbr too | 08:36 |
| MBR | and im on vista. | 08:36 |
| ectospasm | thurein: I dunno, mine *just works*! | 08:36 |
| rob_p | openros, Also, what software are you utilizing for the VPN (both server and client)? | 08:36 |
| MBR | It doesnt work for some reason | 08:36 |
| kj4 | MBR i thinks the super grub disk can fix dat | 08:37 |
| MBR | super grub doesnt work... | 08:37 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: resize, but not create. I don't have any partitions that aren't in use | 08:37 |
| kj4 | MBR oh. ok. | 08:37 |
| Lartza_ | Ok, so I still need an torrent client | 08:37 |
| ectospasm | ah, that's right, they have to be unmounted | 08:37 |
| Lartza_ | transmission and deluge dont fit | 08:37 |
| kj4 | MBR i have a recommendation | 08:37 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: so boot the LiveCD and use gparted from that | 08:37 |
| Lartza_ | transmission cant limit active torrents and deluge cant schedlue | 08:37 |
| MBR | kj4: yes? | 08:37 |
| Lartza_ | *schedule | 08:37 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: make sure you back up all your data BEFORE doing any of this! | 08:37 |
| * moochoo starts to cry | 08:37 | |
| kj4 | MBR you sure you want to hear it? | 08:38 |
| MBR | kj4: yes. | 08:38 |
| thurein | ectospasm: from internet, i have to know it is HDA ICH9 | 08:38 |
| Lartza_ | and lightweight torrent client | 08:38 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: I don't think you're getting it. gparted doesn't allow you to in any way -create a new partition- / and none of the partitions i have aren't in literal use | 08:38 |
| ectospasm | moochoo: are you positive you're supplying the SMB/CIFS credentials properly? | 08:38 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: I didn't think that was your problem | 08:38 |
| kj4 | MBR don't run vista. vista is awful. there. i said it. we were all thinking it, but only I had the guts to say it | 08:38 |
| moochoo | ectospasm, any way I can find out for sure? | 08:38 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: I need to create a new partition. lol | 08:38 |
| ectospasm | moochoo: smbclient --help | 08:38 |
| ectospasm | moochoo: then smbclient -L <share>, and enter the password you *think* it should be using. | 08:39 |
| MBR | kj4: i guess that's your opinion. | 08:39 |
| innociv | er so how do I set up a new user that is limited to a folder say /home/site/public/folder, and doesn't even have read access to anything before that folder? | 08:39 |
| ectospasm | Neconide: you need to resize the existing ones first, no? | 08:39 |
| MBR | anyway is there a way to remove grub anyone? | 08:39 |
| Neconide | ectospasm: O/T, you're quite the multi-tasker, you seem to be helping a handful of people. lol | 08:39 |

| innociv | ectospasm, really?.. | 08:40 |

| glick | kj4, ima dual boot first, because i heard there were networking issues with the 1000he | 08:51 |
| ectospasm | I'm gonna dual boot my Samsung simply because I'll probably need Windows for school. | 08:51 |
| kj4 | glick i think you can make a live USB stick to test that out | 08:51 |

| Lartza_ | yes i try that now, but what i have understood its a little different from what i want | 10:03 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: Which is a desktop and an icon mananer (and not a file manager). | 10:03 |
| sanxiyn | I see. | 10:03 |
| zzaza | hi all | 10:03 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: So no, thunar is a file manager, therefore doesn't manage desktop. | 10:03 |

| Lartza_ | Like nautilus does it | 10:05 |
| credo | michelinux: #ifconfig eth0 down? | 10:06 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: IIRC ROX is a file manager that can do desktop too. | 10:06 |
| Slart | rne1223: and repeating a question every 60 seconds will only get you kicked out of here.. no matter how angry you are | 10:06 |
| Lartza_ | ROX has ugly icons | 10:06 |
| rne1223 | Slart: dude...I just needed to know if somebody was listening. If you guys don't know that is cool, but don't just ignore the question | 10:06 |
| innociv | anyone know hwo to use jailkit?.. | 10:06 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: Hm, it seems nothing fits your requirement :( Too bad. | 10:07 |
| Lartza_ | oh and it looks messed up without configureation | 10:07 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: I used to use ROX (with a lot of custom configuration), but not now. | 10:07 |
| Lartza_ | it rounds up everything grey exept conky ad my bmpanel and covers wallpaper | 10:07 |
| Slart | rne1223: there are over a thousand people here.. if everyone answered to every question this channel would be useless.. | 10:07 |

| === mooseberry is now known as mooseberry-sleep | ||
| Lartza_ | i dont want nautilus its so heavy :( | 10:07 |
| Slart | rne1223: when people don't answer it usually means your question is badly worded .. or they just don't know | 10:07 |
| rne1223 | Slart: Man I'm not going to get into a word fight with you...if you don't know what I"m talking about...then that is fine | 10:08 |
| wary | ciao a tutti | 10:08 |
| sanxiyn | So... Nautilus -> heavy; PCMan -> needs better desktop handling; iDesk -> no folder, not for you; ROX -> ugly; Thunar -> doesn't do desktop | 10:08 |
| rne1223 | Slart: Thanks for your input | 10:08 |
| thewrongboy | hi i have a qn about apt-get source packages | 10:08 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: Hm maybe you want to report bugs to PCMan and get them fixed? | 10:09 |
| thewrongboy | after i apt-get source <package name> | 10:09 |
| Lartza_ | rox is not only ugly but doesnt handle it correctly either witohut configuration, pcman cant at all though... | 10:09 |
| thewrongboy | and run ./configure; make; make install | 10:09 |
| Lartza_ | i think the pcman "bug" is known because people ask about how to get pcman and conky on all sites | 10:09 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: ok, so you don't like ROX default, but pcman lacks feature entirely? | 10:09 |
| Tensai_ | Why wouldn't an SFTP user show up when I type 'who' or 'users'? | 10:09 |
| thewrongboy | are the patches compiled too? | 10:09 |
| sanxiyn | Lartza_: I see. | 10:09 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: No. | 10:10 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: If you want to apply patches, you need to apply them. | 10:10 |
| sanxiyn | That is, apt-get source extracts source and applies diff, but does not apply patches included as a file in diff. | 10:11 |
| thewrongboy | okay.. | 10:11 |
| innociv | When I try to conenct with winscp for a new user i just made, with the password i set, correct ip and port, I get "Authenticating password" then "Acess denied" .. | 10:11 |
| tat_ | i updated just to jaunty, and there are no .fdi files in /etc/hal/fdi/policy, so xserver cant get acess to input devices, am i suposed to lay them myself there or is there a package/command to do that ? | 10:11 |
| thewrongboy | then how do i apply them? | 10:11 |
| sanxiyn | (There is an ongoing discussion on how to automate that, actually. No solution for now.) | 10:11 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: That's the bad part. There is no standard. | 10:11 |
| thewrongboy | oh... ouch | 10:11 |
| thewrongboy | how do i do it manually then? | 10:11 |
| sanxiyn | Debian folks are working on it :( | 10:12 |
| Lartza_ | sanxiyn:Date: 2008-07-14 | 10:12 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: It differs from packages to packages. Read package documentation if there is one. | 10:12 |
| Lartza_ | sanxiyn: You need to ask conky's author. | 10:12 |
| thewrongboy | wow... that sucks... | 10:12 |
| Lartza_ | From my limited knowledge about X, I think it's conky that needs to be | 10:12 |
| Lartza_ | changed. | 10:12 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: If there isn't, you need to figure it out. | 10:12 |
| Lartza_ | hmpfh... didnt render the text very well... | 10:12 |
| thewrongboy | hmm let me poke around the package and see if i can figure it out | 10:12 |
| rne1223 | I would like to change my OpenGl render from " Software Rasterizer" to " Intel 945GM..." does somebody knows how to do this? | 10:12 |
| thewrongboy | sanxiyn, the package in question is python-gobject btw | 10:12 |
| rne1223 | I would greatly appreciate it. | 10:13 |
| Slart | !intel | rne1223, this might be affecting you.. not sure if it would go back to software rendering though.. but it might be worth a read | 10:13 |
| ubottu | rne1223, this might be affecting you.. not sure if it would go back to software rendering though.. but it might be worth a read: Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. | 10:13 |
| === eric_myc is now known as ericm | ||
| rne1223 | alright thanks | 10:14 |
| Slart | rne1223: you might want to check in /var/log/Xorg.0.log too.. if there were errors when initializing you graphics hardware they ought to show up there | 10:16 |
| Lartza_ | /part | 10:18 |
| rne1223 | Slart: The thing is that when I start my computer I get direct rendering. But after I play OpenArena it goes to Software rendering | 10:18 |
| innociv | SIGH :( | 10:18 |
| rne1223 | Slart: Let me check the logs | 10:18 |
| innociv | How do i uninstall jailkit? | 10:18 |
| Slart | rne1223: the logs won't help you then.. it's created when X starts up | 10:19 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: pygobject uses custom quilt rule. Use $ debian/rules patch to patch. | 10:21 |
| sanxiyn | (And unpatch to unpatch.) | 10:21 |
| sanxiyn | Some packages use apply/unapply for that. | 10:21 |
| sanxiyn | Still some packages differ again... | 10:21 |
| rne1223 | Slart: Maybe...but I don't think that is the problem. I think that it has something to do with the game since it switches after I play it | 10:21 |
| innociv | Why do i keep getting access denied in sftp when pasword is correct? | 10:21 |
| sanxiyn | thewrongboy: Yes it sucks. People are working on agreeing on solution. | 10:22 |
| Slart | rne1223: yup.. might be openarena... or the opengl drivers.. | 10:22 |
| Slart | innociv: check the logs for the sftp daemon | 10:22 |
| innociv | i think because of permissions.. | 10:22 |
| Tensai_ | innociv - are you in the AllowUsers list? | 10:23 |
| innociv | AllowUsers list? | 10:23 |
| Tensai_ | yeah what's that file... | 10:23 |

| Tensai_ | you should be in that line | 10:27 |
| tehbaut | Slart, so how do I set it up? sudo root passwd? | 10:30 |
| lstarnes | tehbaut: you should not set a password for root | 10:30 |
| tehbaut | hmmm, so sudo su root then? | 10:30 |
| bullgard4 | Who would test Ekiga with me, please? | 10:30 |
| lstarnes | tehbaut: sudo -i | 10:30 |
| tehbaut | works for me | 10:30 |
| Slart | !sudo | tehbaut | 10:32 |
| ubottu | tehbaut: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 10:32 |
| Slart | !worksforme | tehbaut | 10:32 |
| ubottu | tehbaut: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok.

| iceroot | om26er: ending of the package? deb? rpm? tar.gz? | 10:44 |
| horde | sanxiyn: I had installed extifs (windows kernel driver for reading ext2/3 partitions), and windows didn't recognize the disk. So I went into disk management and initialized it. That didn't work, and when I rebooted ubuntu didn't recognize the disk either. | 10:44 |
| unop | tehbaut, as far as i can tell, only OSx can fully fsck a hfsplus volume | 10:44 |
| om26er | tar.gz | 10:44 |
| om26er | i extracted | 10:45 |
| unop | tehbaut, but you can try | 10:45 |
| phlexonance | sanxiyn, opera uses a pluginwrapper for the flashplugin because the toolkit used between opera and the flashplugin differs, I think that would decrease the performance | 10:45 |

| iceroot | om26er: then look at the readme in the tar.gz | 10:45 |
| horde | sanxiyn: sorry bout that | 10:45 |
| sanxiyn | (There are other ext drivers for Windows than extifs) | 10:45 |
| Wikkedfin | Someone once told me sumthing like chmod -R 755 /home/USER | 10:45 |

| lstarnes | Jimi_Neutral: you will need to remember to check your email for a verification code | 10:47 |
| horde | sanxiyn: well, extifs didn't actually do anything to the disk. Windows wasn't even recognizing the disk as being attached, so I went into Disk Management and initialized it in the hopes that it would see it and then extifs could read it. | 10:48 |

| horde | sanxiyn: it wasn't a format or anything, and the operation was almost instantaneous, so I was hoping it was something fsck or gparted could fix. But I don't want to mess it up anymore by just fiddling. | 10:49 |
| sanxiyn | horde: I agree. I think you'd need more expertise than I can provide... | 10:49 |

| lstarnes | sinan: try find . -name *pattern* -print0 | xargs -0 rm | 10:50 |
| Wikkedfin | thx for the help ppl | 10:50 |

| Jimi_Neutral | ok my nickname is registered already cause i have alreayd done it so why cant i log into ##C | 10:51 |
| sanxiyn | om26er: What are you trying to install? | 10:51 |
| lstarnes | Jimi_Neutral: /msg nickserv identify <password> | 10:51 |
| om26er | firefox 3.5preview | 10:51 |
| lstarnes | sinan: oops, I think I messed that one up | 10:51 |
| sanxiyn | om26er: I don't think it needs any install? | 10:52 |
| Slart | Jimi_Neutral: you have to "login" so to say.. ie identify yourself.. with the nickserv command lstarnes told you | 10:52 |
| sinan | lstarnes: yeah, i am not sure that approach would work with mv. | 10:52 |
| sanxiyn | (You can run it from your home directory) | 10:52 |
| Jimi_Neutral | it just says please register with services and use the indentify command | 10:52 |
| magnetron | Jimi_Neutral: are you registered with the services? | 10:53 |
| kmdm | sinan: something like... for x in `ls`; do mv $x `echo $x | sed 's/foo/bar/'`; done ? | 10:53 |
| om26er | sanxiyn y | 10:53 |
| Jimi_Neutral | magnetron, well i regisered ages ago so i belive so | 10:53 |
| sinan | kmdm: yeah, i guess that would work! thx | 10:53 |
| magnetron | Jimi_Neutral: then identify using yout password | 10:53 |
| sanxiyn | sinan: You can use rename too. man rename. | 10:53 |
| lstarnes | sinan: there's also a way to do it using find and basename with mv | 10:53 |
| om26er | u mean that to start browser i open the folder and then open executable | 10:53 |
| Jimi_Neutral | magnetron, using what line? | 10:53 |
| magnetron | Jimi_Neutral: the one lstarnes gave you | 10:54 |
| kmdm | sinan: either way, I'd backup first... ;-) | 10:54 |
| lstarnes | Jimi_Neutral: /msg nickserv identify <password> | 10:54 |
| farciarz84 | hi can I turn on only some of the compiz features? | 10:54 |
| sinan | the files i am renaming are output from "convert". now it occurs to me, maybe i could make convert output the right names from the first place ... | 10:54 |
| Jimi_Neutral | magnetron, i did that and it came up with ##C :Please register with services and use the IDENTIFY command (/msg nickserv help) to speak in this channel | 10:54 |
| lstarnes | om26er: you could create a launcher for it on your desktop or in the menu | 10:54 |
| Slart | !ccsm | farciarz84 | 10:54 |
| ubottu | farciarz84: To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu: install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 10:54 |

| iceroot | Wikkedfin: this will stop your system working (if you are using x-server) | 10:59 |
| Wikkedfin | ubuntu server | 10:59 |
| Wikkedfin | no gui | 10:59 |
| sanxiyn | Wikkedfin: That seems fine to me. | 10:59 |
| iceroot | Wikkedfin: what you want to stop? that others can access with ssh? | 11:00 |
| iceroot | Wikkedfin: or with ftp? | 11:00 |
| sanxiyn | Wikkedfin: With that other uses on the system (other than root) should not be able to access files on your home directory. | 11:00 |
| Wikkedfin | ok say i have one account names A another B i dont want B to cd.. then do cd A | 11:00 |
| Wikkedfin | from ssh they can | 11:00 |
| sanxiyn | Wikkedfin: Yes that works. | 11:01 |
| iceroot | Wikkedfin: its not working | 11:01 |
| parapanghelescu | SANXIYN > sudo chown -R user /media/memstick | 11:01 |
| sanxiyn | iceroot: ? | 11:01 |
| iceroot | Wikkedfin: because for e.g. apache cant access public_html anymore | 11:01 |
| iceroot | Wikkedfin: apache is running with www-data not with user | 11:02 |
| michelinux | when I start the computer, Tomboy loads but won't stay open if I close the main window. | 11:02 |
| sanxiyn | iceroot: That's assuming he uses public_html... On the other hand, his methodology (chmod to 700) is sound. | 11:03 |
| iceroot | sanxiyn: chmod 700 is very very bad using failproject or chroot is better | 11:03 |
| iceroot | sanxiyn: jailproject | 11:03 |
| sanxiyn | iceroot: chmod 700 is simple and useful in many scenarios. | 11:03 |
| iceroot | sanxiyn: its bad like goto | 11:04 |
| sanxiyn | iceroot: Who cares? (chroot is not worth hassle in my experience) | 11:04 |
| lf4 | Any recomendations on a good app to rip my DVDs to the Hard drive? | 11:04 |
| iceroot | sanxiyn: who cares?...... | 11:04 |
| sanxiyn | (I use goto when it makes sense, for what it's worth) | 11:05 |
| Wikkedfin | hey | 11:06 |
| iceroot | sanxiyn: chmod 700 is just a bad idea. end of discussion :) | 11:06 |

| Harvey8765 | Is there a way I can install ubuntu on an old laptop that doesnt have a cd drive? | 11:10 |
| cwillu | Harvey8765, usb thumbdrive (you can use another ubuntu install to create one, it's in the menu, not sure if it's on the livecd already) | 11:11 |
| cwillu | Harvey8765, or wubi if you have an existing windows install, although I'm honestly not a huge wubi fan | 11:11 |
| cwillu | third option would be a netboot to bootstrap the install, but if you can do that, you can probably make a usb thumbdrive easier | 11:12 |
| cwillu | finally, you could simply take the drive out, plug it into a machine with a cd drive, install to the drive, and plug it back into the laptop | 11:12 |
| Harvey8765 | oh ok and so let me get this right, im using ubuntu now, i just use usb disk creator and then can instal it from the pen drive on the laptop i have? | 11:13 |
| Harvey8765 | i mean the one i want to install it on | 11:13 |
| cwillu | yep | 11:13 |
| Harvey8765 | great guys thanks | 11:13 |
| cwillu | the thumbdrive is exactly like the livecd | 11:13 |
| Harvey8765 | wow thanks | 11:13 |

| cwillu | Rajko, by reinstalling the individual packages. Having said that, why do you want to do that? | 11:15 |
| Rajko | i deleted /etc/apache2 | 11:16 |
| snitko | cwillu: yes | 11:16 |
| Rajko | i want the config files remade | 11:16 |
| szczur | i have small problem | 11:16 |
| cwillu | Rajko, just purge and reinstall apache2 then | 11:16 |
| Jyxt | Rajko: dont need to remove/reinstall the whole thing, just apache | 11:16 |
| Rajko | how | 11:16 |
| Rajko | it doesnt recreate | 11:16 |
| Jyxt | sudo apt-get install apache i would imagine | 11:16 |
| cwillu | purge it (from synaptic, it's the complete removal, from apt-get it's remove --purge | 11:16 |

| Wikkedfin | ya i tried the up key | 11:20 |
| cwillu | not fool-proof for forensic purposes though | 11:20 |
| Wikkedfin | its too far back | 11:20 |
| Jyxt | look in .bash_history, i think by default it saves the last 100 commands? | 11:20 |

| vegombrei | simplexio: wow please show me how | 12:03 |

| innociv | ohhh | 12:06 |
| innociv | yeah i still see them on ssh | 12:06 |
| vegombrei | deany: ? | 12:06 |
| innociv | so it must be jailkit or iron bars shell.. | 12:06 |
| innociv | now how am i supposed to fix? :\ | 12:07 |
| harahauk | innociv: then its propably just a permissions issue | 12:07 |

| macvr | hi all... i did an inplace upgrade of the ext3 drive to ext4... but i'v noticed considerable drop in system performance... so inorder to refresh the ext3 files as ext4 would a reinstall of the packages do the trick or has anyone tried e4defrag? | 12:13 |
| grawity | we_are_138: That hasn't worked since Windows 3.11 | 12:14 |
| harahauk | innociv: you can read the man page for chmod | 12:14 |
| grawity | we_are_138: (I tried) | 12:14 |
| harahauk | it will teach you how to do what you seek | 12:14 |
| harahauk | "man chmod" | 12:14 |
| we_are_138 | grawity, try harder :) | 12:14 |
| innociv | the man page for chmod tells how to jail users? o_O | 12:14 |
| harahauk | innociv: you jail users by setting the correct permissions on what they should not see=) | 12:14 |
| joaopinto | macvr, if you are looking for performance improvement, it is recommended to do a clean ext4 file system creation, not the upgrade | 12:15 |
| grawity | we_are_138: *installs Win95 to a VM* brb | 12:15 |

| matthias2 | Hi, I have a question concerning Ubuntu x64 and 32bit. Is there a way to turn your 64bit installation to a 32bit installation (like changing something in synaptics or so), I do not want to make a complete new installation with CD, but my modem-driver (agrms or so) only works on 32bit and I need the modem in the holidays, any ideas? | 12:15 |
| innociv | also in public is files everyone needs to be able to read | 12:15 |
| FeasibilityStudy | kelli shred -z -n 1 /dev/sdx | 12:15 |
| Jyxt | matthias2: better to just reinstall if your changing from 64 to 32 or vice versa | 12:15 |
| joaopinto | Matthai, you can't use 32 bits drivers on a 64 bits install, you will need to do a reinstall | 12:16 |
| matthias2 | no other way? | 12:16 |
| joaopinto | no | 12:16 |
| matthias2 | okay thx | 12:16 |
| ryblade | How can i change themes in Xubuntu Jaunty Jackalope? | 12:16 |
| harahauk | innociv: what exactly do you want?:) should it be readable or not? | 12:16 |
| joaopinto | ryblade, try asking on #xubuntu | 12:16 |
| ryblade | ok ty | 12:16 |
| grawity | ryblade: Applications -> Settings -> Appearance, IIRC. | 12:16 |
| macvr | joaopinto: i'v already done the upgrade! now what do i do? is reinstall only my other option? | 12:16 |
| innociv | harahauk, yes because if index.html isn't readable by all then people viewing website can't.. view anything :) | 12:16 |
| joaopinto | macvr, is your best option, or just backup/restore after recreating the file system | 12:17 |
| Aju | hi..my..pidgin...getting currently suspended | 12:17 |
| Aju | bb | 12:17 |
| Jyxt | macvr: the 32 bit modem driver doesn't work? | 12:17 |
| joaopinto | macvr, and make sure you recreate the filesystem, is not just about reinstalling packages | 12:17 |
| Aju | nj | 12:17 |
| innociv | or php files is a better example | 12:17 |
| {g} | Hey People! I have a file on disk that is owned by user "user" and group "group". When I open it as "user" or even as "root" with openoffice, its read only. Only when I give write permissions for everybody "chmod a+w" i can open it normally. Any ideas? I got this problem only with Ubuntu 9. With Ubuntu 7 all was fine. | 12:17 |
| innociv | people need to be able to view the php files, harahauk, but not the person logged onto sftp able to see its source | 12:17 |
| harahauk | innociv: ah! | 12:18 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} what permissions do you want it to have | 12:18 |
| Jyxt | macvr: that was directed at someone else :P | 12:18 |
| macvr | joaopinto: aw! man should have stuck with ext3 :( | 12:18 |
| innociv | ya | 12:18 |
| bigboss | hello people! anyone know a guide that explain how to install windows on an ubuntu pc? | 12:18 |
| macvr | Jyxt: realized that :) | 12:18 |
| rob_p | innociv, Have you looked into the scponly shell? | 12:18 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: the permissions it has are "-rw-rw-r--" that should be enough for root to write to it, right? | 12:18 |
| Jyxt | bigboss: google? | 12:18 |
| innociv | nope.. i looked into jailkit and iron bars shell and couldn't get them working | 12:18 |
| koshari | bigboss in a Vm or dua boot | 12:18 |
| joaopinto | bigboss, if you mean virtualized windows, there are plenty tutorials on the internet, try google.com | 12:18 |
| Jyxt | google "ubuntu windows dual boot" | 12:18 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} root can write to anything, no matter permissions | 12:18 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: openoffice opens it readonly unless i give it "-rw-rw-rw-" | 12:19 |
| joaopinto | bigboss, there is no such thing as "ubuntu pc", you may have a PC with Ubuntu installed | 12:19 |
| erdem-uubuntu | hi everyone, which kernel has ubuntu 9.10 alfa2 ??? | 12:19 |
| rob_p | innociv, Not sure if it works with sftp as well but it wouldn't surprise me if it did. I know it works with scp (both use SSH protocols). | 12:19 |
| bigboss | nono i mean a dual boot install, cause i need it for games.... however yes, a pc with ubuntu installed... sorry 4 my english | 12:19 |

| erdem-uubuntu | well =)) | 12:20 |
| innociv | hmm... | 12:20 |
| innociv | im weary about trying to set another of these up without help ;( | 12:20 |
| innociv | jailkit gave errors on install and i couldnt' get it working, and what setup told me to do screwed everything up | 12:20 |
| harahauk | innociv: as long as you allow ppl to log in to your server they will always be able to read your php code | 12:20 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} does your username own the file? | 12:20 |
| Jyxt | bigboss: yes, google search terms "ubuntu windows dual boot" | 12:20 |
| Jyxt | first couple hits should help yout out | 12:20 |
| innociv | harahauk? Hmmm? Php is server side code | 12:20 |
| innociv | it generates html | 12:20 |
| innociv | people only see the html | 12:21 |
| Aju | hi..my media player not working | 12:21 |
| Jyxt | innociv: unless you have access to server, then you can see the source | 12:21 |
| harahauk | innociv: yes, but if you allow other users to ssh to the server, theres nothing you can do afaik to shield the code from prying eyes | 12:21 |
| bigboss | Jyxt, but i can only find people that install ubuntu on a windows pc | 12:21 |
| grawity | innociv: But if they can login to the shell (or grab the file with ftp/sftp)... | 12:21 |
| innociv | how?... so someone can view source to see my mysql info?.. | 12:21 |
| harahauk | you can chmod the dir to not allow listings, but still if they know the filename its easy | 12:21 |
| innociv | oh | 12:21 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: yes, if i "su user" then i am user. but user gets it in readonly mode as well. so is root. the files owner is "user". | 12:21 |
| innociv | i thoguht you meant people just connecting with a browser | 12:21 |
| rob_p | innociv, The scponly shell is as easy as, "sudo apt-get install scponly" and then setting the user's shell to, "/usr/bin/scponly" in /etc/passwd. | 12:21 |
| innociv | and not knowing sftp login | 12:21 |
| innociv | rob, so they won't be able to go back out from their homedir? | 12:22 |
| Jyxt | bigboss: second hit with search term "ubuntu windows dual boot" | 12:22 |
| Jyxt | http://apcmag.com/how_to_dual_boot_linux_and_windows_xp_linux_installed_first.htm | 12:22 |
| harahauk | innociv: anyone who has access to the file system on your box will be able to see your php code :/ | 12:22 |
| innociv | harahauk, well that's what im trying to do.. | 12:22 |
| innociv | is not let them have access to all the files on my box | 12:22 |
| innociv | I don't want anyone that logs in with sftp to see all my source code, files, etc. | 12:22 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} which user owns it? | 12:23 |
| harahauk | innociv: that cant be done afaik | 12:23 |
| innociv | i thought that's what jailkit is supposed to do? | 12:23 |
| Jyxt | innociv: chroot jail? | 12:23 |
| innociv | keep people from reading things out side their dir | 12:23 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: the users name is "user". | 12:23 |
| innociv | rob_p, does scponly do this?.. | 12:23 |
| bigboss | Jyxt, i think i have different results on google cause a use goole.it... i'll try with google.com | 12:23 |
| rob_p | innociv, Basically it limits them to utilizing scp for access to the server. I guess you probably want some sort of chroot environment in which to jail the users. | 12:23 |
| ryblade | how can i install download themes in Xubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 (No answers in xubuntu Channel) | 12:23 |
| macvr | joaopinto: final doubt... does writing over a present file change anything? [like move it to differnt location and copying over it again?] | 12:23 |
| rob_p | innociv, It's a good start but maybe not exactly what you are looking for. | 12:23 |
| innociv | yeah not sounding like it :( | 12:24 |
| harahauk | innociv: i dont know what jailkit does, hope it works out for you:) | 12:24 |
| innociv | i couldn't get jailkit working :\ | 12:24 |
| joaopinto | macvr, no, because mv does not do a physical move, it just changes the file location on directory listing | 12:24 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: "sudo -u user openoffice.org letter.doc" => read only | 12:25 |
| rob_p | innociv, I've never messed with jailkit. But I have manually set up chroot environments for things. | 12:25 |
| innociv | i got python 2.1 errors or somethign trying to install jailkit | 12:25 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: "$root openoffice.org letter.doc" => read only | 12:25 |
| macvr | joaopinto: to different partition also same? | 12:25 |
| bigboss | Jyxt, the second hit is about installing ubuntu on a pc with xp installed frist | 12:25 |
| Jyxt | innociv: i know with the latest openssh you can restrict users to using only sftp, only ssh only certain directories commands etc | 12:26 |
| Jyxt | check this link | 12:26 |
| Jyxt | http://rothwerx.com/node/8 | 12:26 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} try to chown the file to your username. | 12:26 |
| Jyxt | matter of adding some options to the sshd_config and restarting the ssh server | 12:26 |
| joaopinto | macvr, like I said, your best option is to recreate the filesystem, don't waste more time with work arounds, you already did tha when you decided to upgrade the fs :) | 12:26 |
| innociv | wellll them only using sftp is nice and all, but they can still click the folder back button on sftp.. | 12:26 |
| Jyxt | bigboss: check that link i posted for you...or visit that second link, they have another tutorial for linux first | 12:26 |
| macvr | joaopinto: ok... :) thanx for the info... | 12:26 |
| Jyxt | innociv: check this link http://rothwerx.com/node/8 | 12:27 |
| innociv | i did. | 12:27 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: "chown root:root letter.doc; openoffice.org letter.doc" => read/write mode | 12:27 |
| rob_p | innociv, I can't vouch for the accuracy, but here's a tutorial for Ubuntu: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=248724 | 12:27 |
| bigboss | Jyxt, sorry i didnt see the link befor, i'll check it now. Thanks alot! | 12:27 |
| joaopinto | innociv, whatever you want to do is just a metter of setting the web dirs unreadable by the sftp users, it is just a matter of dir permissions | 12:27 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} dont chown it to root..chown it to your user name | 12:27 |
| innociv | rob, treidi ti get errors on install about python 2.1 or somehting | 12:27 |
| rob_p | innociv, perhaps you already found that... | 12:27 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: i am root | 12:27 |
| rob_p | innociv, What errors did you get? | 12:27 |
| Jyxt | bigboss: no problem | 12:28 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} you should not be root. WHY are you root? | 12:28 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: "chown user:user letter.doc; openoffice.org letter.doc" => read only | 12:28 |
| innociv | Jyxt, so this like replaces the sshd thing or what? | 12:29 |
| innociv | or adds to it? | 12:29 |
| Jyxt | innociv: hrm...did you read the whole thing :P | 12:29 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: "chown user:user letter.doc; su user; openoffice.org letter.doc" => read only | 12:29 |
| Jyxt | sshd is a daemon, part of openssh usually...if you have openssh 5+ you can just edit the sshd_config and add some lines to it | 12:29 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} now that it is owned by you, chmod the permissions to what you want. If you only want your user to have access, then do chown 700 letter.doc | 12:29 |
| Jyxt | /etc/ssh/sshd_config usually | 12:29 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: "user" cannot open in rw mode unless i "chmod a+w" the file. | 12:30 |
| innociv | i did but i'm dumb :( This won't effect my current groups, right? Currently this tree of folders is rph:rph. So I can make this dir i want them stuck in rph:sftp and have them stuck there only able to view sftp group files? | 12:30 |
| innociv | but people on their browser will access it all fine? | 12:30 |
| vegombrei | deano: you there? | 12:30 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: thats the strange thing. that was the strange thing from the beginning. all the generic linux permission infos you gave me, i already knew. | 12:30 |
| ZJ | hello | 12:30 |
| yma | hi guys | 12:30 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} grrr. Is the file owned by your username or not? If not, then chown it...Once done, then chmod 700 | 12:30 |
| yma | all my fonts display as square now | 12:30 |
| Jyxt | innociv: yes that should work...in theory all your changing is ssh permissions etc | 12:30 |
| yma | can any of you help | 12:30 |
| ryblade | ntu Channel | 12:31 |
| rob_p | innociv, Jyxt, That looks promising. I was unaware that OpenSSH had that capability! | 12:31 |
| yma | menu, fonts, login all missing font | 12:31 |
| Jyxt | rob_p: yes its pretty slick | 12:31 |
| ryblade | how can i install download themes in xubuntu Jaunty Jackalope 9.04 (No answers in Xubuntu Channel) | 12:31 |
| {g} | FeasibilityStudy: then i get "read only". thats what i have been telling you from the start. | 12:31 |

| yma | how do i reinstall ubuntu font packages | 12:32 |
| yma | anyone help ? | 12:32 |
| yma | <<==== very desperate | 12:32 |
| vegombrei | yma: tried synaptic? | 12:32 |
| yma | i can't see anything | 12:32 |
| yma | can't use gui | 12:32 |
| Jyxt | rob_p: good question, i just learned about that like 2 months ago | 12:32 |
| yma | becaues all fonts = square | 12:32 |
| yma | i'm typign from tty2 atm | 12:32 |
| boss_mc | yma: ctrl + alt + f1 | 12:32 |
| yma | yes? | 12:32 |
| FeasibilityStudy | {g} so you get that when chmoding the file as both your user and root? | 12:32 |
| Jyxt | maybe less...was setting up keyless entry and i know you can restrict commands with keyless entry...in my research to jail i came across that feature | 12:33 |
| yma | boos_mc | 12:33 |

| Jyxt | openros: yeah like i said though, if the parted binary is on /usr you wont be able to run parted | 12:49 |
| Jyxt | you'll get command not found | 12:49 |
| Jyxt | other than that minor issue you shouldnt have any problems | 12:49 |
| MikeChelen | openros, create an additional partition first and copy /usr over | 12:49 |
| Jyxt | though resizing partitions with files on it is always a tricky thing...i'd backup /usr before doing any resizing | 12:50 |
| Jyxt | you could really backup /usr to another partition, umount /usr...mount your new /usr...resize the old /usr...then unmount that new /usr and remount the old resized one :p | 12:50 |
| openros | ya thanks i will use the same method... | 12:51 |

| nickel_on_my_bac | what's the best command line to install all LAMP package without any glitches ? | 13:32 |
| veroli | php not installed properly then | 13:32 |
| nickel_on_my_bac | but i reinstalled php and still not working | 13:32 |
| hateball | nickel_on_my_bac: tasksel | 13:32 |
| MaxFrag|Zack | ActionParsnip: seen both of those on google, second one doesn't seem to apply, the usb headset doesn't create a new sound card. | 13:32 |
| veroli | apt-get install lamp-server | 13:32 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !lamp | 13:32 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 13:32 |
| Pirate_Hunter | nickel_on_my_bac, that was for you | 13:32 |
| ActionParsnip | mach3: look into a program called foremost, then look into a backup situation so you dont have to bother with data restoring from bad disks in the future | 13:32 |
| nickel_on_my_bac | already seen that | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | MaxFrag|Zack: then its not installed right | 13:33 |
| MaxFrag|Zack | ActionParsnip: the first one sort of works, except when using ventrilo it makes it so the sound is very distorted. | 13:33 |
| nickel_on_my_bac | apt-get install lamp-server this doesnt work | 13:33 |
| ActionParsnip | !lamp | 13:33 |

| mach3 | ActionParsnip: well...that would help, but I've already got a bad disk...So that does nothing for me =P I need help with dd_rescue, it does what I ask it to, I just need a way to compress it. | 13:33 |
| * hmmm is away: Irssi 0.8.13 (Debian 1.1-1ubuntu2) (Using KDE 3.5.10) | 13:34 | |
| MaxFrag|Zack | ActionParsnip: I have everything working except for aMSN which want to throw sound at me through my PC speaks, which it does well. I can't hear it though because I'm using the headset is semi-closed system and I can't hear it. | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | mach3: get a backup if your data is important. no backup = data is disposable | 13:34 |
| Pici | !away > hmmm | 13:34 |
| ubottu | hmmm, please see my private message | 13:34 |
| Pirate_Hunter | nickel_on_my_bac, follow the link read it, its fail proof 95% of the time in my opinion | 13:34 |
| nickel_on_my_bac | sorted! | 13:34 |
| ActionParsnip | mach3: you need 2 partitions, the bad one to read and a place to put the resulting data | 13:35 |
| smacktalk | I can't edit /etc/services even with sudo | 13:35 |
| ActionParsnip | mach3: use foremost on the partition to pull the data types yuo require from the disk. If foremost does not work you will have to buy another disk to use dd_recue as you have seen | 13:35 |

| moDumass | ActionParsnip, if i use a install cd, can i reset my install to a default install? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | gah @ pidgin | 13:38 |
| asmund | I want to backup my F-spot library to DVD's. Any good burning software that can automagically spread the library ofer several discs? | 13:38 |
| ActionParsnip | moDumass: you can bot to recovery root console and rename the .gnome folder, that will reset gnome back to defaults if thats what you mean | 13:39 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: hi u replied to my launchpad question startup apps | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: I'm good on there :) | 13:39 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: if the text is all in a big block its off my g1 phone ;) | 13:40 |
| moDumass | ActionParsnip, its more that things that used to work quickly now do not | 13:40 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: hmm? | 13:40 |
| eoch | is there a good application to be able to capture information while surfing, reading documents etc? I want it to be sorta like a sticky notes, but be able to capture automatically where I gathered the information from (url / document name/ etc) | 13:40 |
| Pirate_Hunter | moDumass, you might have to reinstall everythign except format /home just leave the data there | 13:40 |
| smacktalk | anne@anne-desktop:/etc$ sudo cat tailed >> services | 13:41 |
| smacktalk | bash: services: Permission denied | 13:41 |
| bullgard4 | Who would test Ekiga with me, please? | 13:41 |
| Draglor | smacktalk: try just "cat /etc/services" | 13:41 |
| ActionParsnip | moDumass: then you can run: sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-desktop which will reinstall all the apps that make up the desktop and will give them fresh configs (except what is configured in ~) | 13:41 |
| ewook | sudo 'cat tailed >> services' | 13:41 |
| smacktalk | Draglor...that asked me for a root password | 13:41 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: i web browse from bed on my G1 and type on launchpad, good fun | 13:41 |
| Draglor | you will have to get superuser to write into services smacktalk | 13:42 |
| moDumass | ActionParsnip, thanks, il give that a whirl. | 13:42 |
| smacktalk | i'm superuser | 13:42 |
| Draglor | what gives "sudo su" as output? | 13:42 |
| Pirate_Hunter | smacktalk, no right now your a sudoer | 13:42 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: i was pleasantly surprised to read ur reply,since u were helping me on irc too | 13:42 |
| smacktalk | oh... | 13:43 |
| ubuntu | wtf | 13:43 |
| moDumass | ActionParsnip, i installed ubuntu on an eepc, it has a 4gig and an 8gig flash drive/s problem is that now that i have it going i cant do system upgrades or distro upgrades because it runs out of space | 13:43 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !languange | ubuntu | 13:43 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about languange | 13:43 |
| Draglor | smacktalk: Try "sudo cat tailed >> /etc/services" and give root- (or your user-) password when asked | 13:43 |
| ActionParsnip | moDumass: sudo apt-get clean first | 13:44 |
| smacktalk | that worked!!! | 13:44 |
| ActionParsnip | moDumass: or skim some packages out that are bulky (open office and gimp will give you a fair chunk of space, if you need word processing install abiword) | 13:44 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: also cd ~/.config/autostart;clean what does this do? | 13:44 |
| moDumass | ActionParsnip, thanks for that | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: some startup stuff is defined in there | 13:45 |
| smacktalk | Thanks you!! | 13:45 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: i mean the syntax with semicolon and clean is what is intriguing | 13:45 |
| Draglor | indus: It changes the current directory to "~/.config/autostart" and clears/blanks the screen | 13:45 |
| ActionParsnip | !startup > indus | 13:45 |
| ubottu | indus, please see my private message | 13:45 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: Draglor:ya i did figure out when i saw the output | 13:46 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: clear just clears the screen, makes life readable | 13:46 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: but, its true, i have ticked the 'remember programs when quit' box but it still keeps running again | 13:47 |
| spursncowboys | Hi everyone. I am gonna get off topic for a second. When I download a torrent, I get like 25 zip or rar files. Then I extract it and I'll get 25 video files but the first one plays the entire show. When I burn it, do I have to include all the extracted files? Do I just put one and burn it? | 13:47 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: although today it hasnt autorun totem or firefox | 13:47 |
| Draglor | spursncowboys: Just burn what you can play .... | 13:48 |
| spursncowboys | so the first file? So then should I extract all of them? Also can I delete all the files I won't use? | 13:48 |
| indus | its been 5 years and i still cant figure out what advantage a torrent file gives | 13:48 |
| indus | for me,its the slowest download speed when i download a torrent | 13:49 |
| Draglor | sometimes faster and much cheaper for the one spreading the file | 13:49 |
| spursncowboys | indus: what do you use? | 13:49 |
| === fernando is now known as Guest36541 | ||
| indus | in fact the speeds i get are really shameful like 30 kb/s when i have max 256 kb/s | 13:49 |
| indus | spursncowboys: i use default transmission client what else | 13:50 |
| Pirate_Hunter | indus, your isp probably shapes your network and has anti p2p software running | 13:50 |
| olax | i need html/decoder to run swf have try online and not gotten | 13:50 |
| Draglor | spursncowboys: Just burn the file that was playing the movie on your Computer. nothing more or less. | 13:50 |
| indus | Pirate_Hunter: no not to my knowledge, | 13:50 |
| Draglor | olax: swf is flash ... try flash plugin | 13:50 |
| spursncowboys | Draglor: thanks. It's just something that's always made me wonder. | 13:51 |
| indus | Pirate_Hunter: you know i have been wanting to effectively use torrents for the last ten years but i seem to fail miserably at it | 13:51 |
| Pirate_Hunter | indus, they dont tell you if they did bet you wouldve probably looked for someone else, last time i checked online there was a list of isps that did that | 13:51 |
| indus | Pirate_Hunter: i dont even consider a torrent file now | 13:51 |
| Draglor | Pirate_Hunter: Maybe he's just downloading the wrongs things ... mostly illegal downloads aren't fast as torrents... | 13:51 |
| znh | Hello :-) | 13:51 |
| indus | Draglor: i never download illegal stuff | 13:51 |
| Draglor | Yeah, as everyone doesn't. ;) | 13:52 |
| indus | Draglor: mind it ! its akin to calling me a thief | 13:52 |
| znh | I'm looking for an application like Gimp are there any others? My goal is to make a painting with effects and such.. Anything like Gimp would do | 13:52 |
| moDumass | indus it all depends on ratios and the upload speed of the seeders | 13:52 |
| indus | Draglor: anyways not your fault | 13:52 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: I'd watch it for a few day. See what sort of things cause the next boot to make it load automagically | 13:52 |
| Draglor | Well, if I download ubuntu over http it's about four times slower than as torrent | 13:52 |
| wolfwalker | Sorry to bug you with a KDE question, but #kubuntu is dead. In kmix how do you monitor sound in? I can turn sound from the mic port up and down for my recording program, but I can't see how to monitor the mic port from speakers. | 13:53 |
| indus | moDumass: yes i tried some old tv programs and no one was seeding it so that is a problem i think | 13:53 |
| Draglor | indus, what's loading automatically? | 13:53 |
| ActionParsnip | wolfwalker: i just answered ;) | 13:53 |
| wolfwalker | Yup, just saw it. Sorry. | 13:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Draglor: firefox and totem | 13:53 |
| moDumass | Draglor, If i dload ubuntu from the web i can get about 6 megs a second | 13:53 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Draglor, that is when you use download accelerator :p still most admins hate those and may ban you heck doubt ubuntu would do it | 13:53 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: yes i have been watching it for a month now and diff programs keep launching | 13:53 |
| moDumass | indus, try diferent torrent engines or emule, edonkey | 13:53 |
| zhoujingrui | is there some ubuntu radio soft ? | 13:53 |
| moDumass | they have ransom old school torrents | 13:53 |
| zhoujingrui | thanks | 13:53 |
| indus | i had a pigeon menace for some time | 13:53 |
| rameshwo | hello.. i wanted to talk with you guys from ubuntu.. but couldn't get irc to work with it .. so which client should i choose ?? | 13:53 |
| znh | indus, if I remember properly there is an option to encrypt traffic. This would prevent your ISP from shaping in most cases. Unsure if transmission has this feature though. | 13:54 |
| indus | pidgin ,firefox , rhythmbox loading up | 13:54 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: watch what programs are used before you log off. and which ones are running when you log off | 13:54 |
| _PiLoT_ | anyone got a good star trek theme for compi | 13:54 |
| Pirate_Hunter | rameshwo, the one your using right now would be my guess | 13:54 |
| _PiLoT_ | compiz* | 13:54 |
| znh | rameshwo, XChat is pretty popular | 13:54 |
| indus | moDumass: is emule available in synaptic? | 13:54 |
| ux | i must look it | 13:55 |
| ux | wait | 13:55 |
| zhoujingrui | my emule have no speed | 13:55 |
| indus | i tried azurieus but it keeps asking for java | 13:55 |
| Pirate_Hunter | _PiLoT_, go to #compiz | 13:55 |
| _PiLoT_ | cheers pirate | 13:55 |
| zhoujingrui | is there some raido software in ubuntu ? | 13:55 |
| ux | it called amule | 13:55 |
| ux | ) | 13:55 |
| zhoujingrui | thanks | 13:55 |
| Draglor | indus: did you look in gnome folder in /usr/ for startups? | 13:55 |
| Draglor | you are using gnome I assume ;) | 13:56 |
| ux | radio and other for music is rhythmbox | 13:56 |
| indus | Draglor: am i supposed to ? | 13:56 |
| gravisan | hi | 13:56 |
| gravisan | how is it possible to tell if i am running 32 bit or 64? | 13:56 |
| Draglor | no, but you use mostly gtk apps as it seems | 13:56 |
| indus | gravisan: uname -m in terminal | 13:56 |
| Pirate_Hunter | zhoujingrui, there are plenty search online or in synaptic there is also lastfm which is not a soft but browser base (heck rhythmbox has radio function) | 13:56 |
| indus | gravisan: uname -a in terminal | 13:56 |
| Draglor | or supposed for looking there? | 13:56 |
| gravisan | indus: thanks | 13:56 |
| gravisan | i am runniing 686 | 13:57 |
| ActionParsnip | 686 == 32bit | 13:57 |
| indus | gravisan: ya 32 bi | 13:57 |
| indus | t | 13:57 |
| gravisan | is it possible to switch to x64 by installing the 64bit kernel ... or wouldi need to do all sort of crazy stuff with userspace too? | 13:57 |
| ActionParsnip | x86_64 == 64bit | 13:57 |
| indus | whats diff between 386 and 686 | 13:57 |
| Draglor | indus: I think that's some default startup apps from your gnome install (so not located in ~/ but normally in /usr/) | 13:57 |
| gravisan | 686 has more extensions i think? | 13:57 |
| zhoujingrui | rhythmbox radio doesnot work | 13:58 |
| indus | Draglor: in /usr which folder i check? gnome? | 13:58 |
| Draglor | indus: 686 is pentium >=4 | 13:58 |
| gravisan | is there a command line only installer for ubuntu | 13:58 |
| gravisan | i want something like debootstrap | 13:58 |
| gravisan | but on an installer cd | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I386 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_P6_(microarchitecture) | 13:58 |
| Pirate_Hunter | zhoujingrui, it does if your internet isn't slow and your arent connecting to brazil or some other far away country from you, best best stick to lastfm in your webbrowser | 13:58 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: i386 is for dog old CPUs basically. | 13:59 |
| indus | Draglor: which folder in /usr there are many | 13:59 |
| Draglor | indus: Try "find /usr/ -type f|grep totem" and look into this files | 13:59 |
| indus | Draglor: ok can you also tell me how that command works | 13:59 |
| Draglor | normally /usr/share/ or /usr/gnome/ (I don't use gnome) | 13:59 |
| Draglor | indus: man find ;) | 13:59 |
| gravisan | i am trying the mini.iso | 13:59 |
| gravisan | but i am scared its going to install everything | 14:00 |
| Draglor | and man grep | 14:00 |
| indus | Draglor: hmm there is totem there and a lot more | 14:00 |
| zhoujingrui | lastfm is not freee | 14:00 |
| zhoujingrui | free | 14:00 |
| Adola | I'm running 8.10 Intrepid, and I can't activate the restricted drivers. | 14:00 |
| indus | Draglor: ok hmm it keeps spitting output | 14:00 |

| djoob | Hi I have 8.04 and however hard I try I can't get flash player 10 to work | 14:00 |
| Pirate_Hunter | zhoujingrui, yes it is! were you read that is utterly lying to you | 14:00 |
| djoob | Anyone got any ideas | 14:00 |
| djoob | ? | 14:00 |
| FeasibilityStudy | djoob 32 or 64 | 14:01 |
| djoob | 32 | 14:01 |
| Draglor | is there something on a directory including "auto" or a . desktop file in the output? | 14:01 |
| Pirate_Hunter | djoob, just install it from synaptic or terminal | 14:01 |
| djoob | Pirate I tried that ... it says already installe | 14:01 |
| djoob | d | 14:01 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !flash | djoob | 14:01 |
| ubottu | djoob: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 14:01 |
| Adola | I'm running 8.10 Intrepid, and I can't activate the restricted drivers. | 14:01 |
| wolfwalker | djoob in 8.04 flash player is not good. It will work sometimes, but not very well. Get Ubuntu 9.04, it works flawlessly. | 14:02 |
| Pirate_Hunter | djoob, might help figure out the problem | 14:02 |
| djoob | 9.04 ? Is that jaunty? | 14:02 |
| indus | wolfwalker: ok for me its the other way around | 14:02 |
| wolfwalker | 9.04 is Jaunty, yes. | 14:02 |
| ActionParsnip | !9.04 | 14:02 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 - Please use !torrents | 14:02 |
| indus | wolfwalker: flash was 9 in that now its 10 although now in hardy they might have updated to 10 | 14:02 |
| wolfwalker | And indus I don't know what to say. I had trouble in 8.04 so I googled and found it was a common problem. | 14:03 |
| djoob | I just can't get my video drivers to work with Jaunty so I downgraded to hardy | 14:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | wolfwalker, wouldnt say works flawlessly that is just a street of perfect. I still get hangs and random cpu increase as well as memory | 14:03 |
| gravisan | is there a command line only version i can download? | 14:03 |
| djoob | Video works great but can't get flash to work | 14:03 |
| ActionParsnip | djoob: 32bit or 64bit Ubuntu? | 14:03 |
| indus | Draglor: ok too many files where do i look | 14:03 |
| djoob | Action 32 | 14:03 |
| Pirate_Hunter | djoob, if it worked in 8.04 it will work in 9.04 as long as you edit xorg yourself, they did change bits and bobs | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | djoob: if the repo fails yo uyou can download the tar.gz file and put the .so file in ~/.mozilla/plugins | 14:04 |
| djoob | I can see libflashplayer.so in the firefox plugins dir. but firefox can't see it | 14:04 |
| remoteCTRL | err... what is the difference between ssh and ssh2 please? | 14:04 |
| Pirate_Hunter | djoob, this is assuming you done your xorg yourself :p | 14:04 |
| djoob | Action I tried all of that | 14:04 |
| ActionParsnip | djoob: is it seen in about : plugins | 14:05 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: Draglor : i have so many minor irritants with 9.04 | 14:05 |
| indus | nvm. | 14:05 |
| djoob | Action no it isn't | 14:05 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: its all been identical for me since gutsy | 14:05 |
| znh | remoteCTRL, SSH2 is a more secure, efficient, and portable version of SSH that includes SFTP | 14:06 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: for me feisty was great but i fell in love with hardy | 14:06 |
| Pirate_Hunter | !info ssh2 > Pirate_Hunter | 14:06 |
| indus | ActionParsnip: have been thinking going back to it | 14:06 |
| Draglor | As I use ubuntu only for testing, I'm running 9.10 for some time now ... | 14:06 |
| djoob | ActionParsnip: I tried it through install missing plugin, deb package from adobe and tar.gz from adobe.... all fail to load flashplayer | 14:06 |
| remoteCTRL | znh: all right, thanks for that, do you also happen to know why ubuntu ships with ssh and not ssh2? | 14:06 |
| ActionParsnip | djoob: so you see something like this: http://pastebin.com/d7accf72b | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | djoob: mines 64bit , but you get the idea | 14:07 |
| remoteCTRL | !ssh2 | 14:07 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ActionParsnip, is ssh2 the same as openssh? | 14:07 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ssh2 | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | indus: mandrake 7 for me :) | 14:07 |
| phisher1 | remoteCTRL: ubuntu ships with openssh, which supports ssh1 and ssh2 | 14:07 |
| tikur | anybody who can help me with perl | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Pirate_Hunter: not heard of ssh2 | 14:07 |
| djoob | ActionParsnip: hang on | 14:07 |
| remoteCTRL | phisher1: ah ok i see so it is basically my choice which one i pick? | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | tikur: i'd head into #perl | 14:07 |
| ActionParsnip | tikur: theres nearly 600 users in there | 14:08 |
| phisher1 | the default in the ubuntu install of openssh-server (which is not installed by default) sets the protocol to ssh2 | 14:08 |
| remoteCTRL | phisher1: znh are those actually compatible, say if i create ssh2 public keys on the local machie but the remote one has ssh running? | 14:08 |
| dani__ | Hi. | 14:08 |
| phisher1 | ssh2 keys? | 14:08 |
| dani__ | how can I log my pidgin chats ? | 14:08 |
| phisher1 | do you mean rsa or dsa ? | 14:08 |
| Draglor | indus: is there something in /usr/share/autostart related to firefox/totem/whatever? | 14:08 |
| remoteCTRL | phisher1: err... i'm not sure about that as the nomenclature in /etc/does not indicate so...? | 14:09 |
| Draglor | dani__: pidgin is logging by default | 14:09 |
| remoteCTRL | phisher1: well i'd prefer rsa but basically i dont care | 14:09 |
| znh | remoteCTRL, ubuntu ships with ssh2, but refers to it as ssh. It's the default now :) | 14:09 |
| phisher1 | remoteCTRL: rsa or dsa keys will work on an ssh1 or ssh2 server as long as the server allows key pair authentication | 14:09 |
| phisher1 | if you prefer one, why do you say you basiclly don't care ? | 14:10 |
| winterelf | hi all... need help.. in the univercity where i study there is a wireless connection that i supposed to define as "wep 802.1" and authentication with "peap" so i edit in my network connection this connection with the name and password and it worked.. but the problam is that i cant connect to pidgin and to irssi (irc) .. any one knows how to fix it? when i connect to a different network like my home than i can use irssi and pidgin | 14:10 |
| znh | remoteCTRL, if I remember correctly one of SSH2 features is the public key feature. Afaik SSH1 does not have that | 14:10 |
| Etherael | I got a weird one, intel mobile 4 accelerated graphics chip on jaunty with a heterogenous dual head (1920x1080 ext + 1280x800 int) setup. It's treating the entire display as if it were one big monitor when I want to treat it like two, anyone know a way out of this? | 14:10 |
| remoteCTRL | phisher1: well i prefer it but if i cannot use it its not a big deal to me | 14:10 |
| Draglor | dani__: The log should be somewhere below ~/.purple | 14:10 |

| vlek | Hi guys, Iv´e been searching on the internet but I cannot find the awnser. Ive installed on my first partition windows 7 and on the second ubuntu and installed Grub2. Now on the internet people are saying that Grub2 doesn´t support Vista boot. So is there a work arround? | 14:11 |
| ActionParsnip | djoob: and copy the .so file to that folder and restart firefox | 14:11 |
| Pirate_Hunter | winterelf, huh.. i would think so | 14:11 |
| znh | remoteCTRL, :-) | 14:12 |
| phisher1 | grub supports vista boot | 14:12 |
| phisher1 | I've done it on my laptop | 14:12 |
| ActionParsnip | vlek: install grub or lilo | 14:12 |
| phisher1 | you did say Windows 7 then Vista though.. | 14:12 |
| ActionParsnip | vlek: what functionality in grub2 do you use? | 14:12 |
| vlek | Aaah yes its windows 7 | 14:12 |
| vlek | But it has messed up grub2 and now I cannot open vista nor ubuntu | 14:12 |
| phisher1 | I doubt much in the boot code would change for windows7 from vista.. | 14:13 |

| phisher1 | ^^ dual boot ubuntu & windows 7 | 14:13 |
| vlek | Itś for my work. Need some windows applications | 14:13 |
| phisher1 | Pirate_Hunter: windows 7 changes don't even matter | 14:13 |
| phisher1 | it all matters on what drive you are booting to | 14:13 |
| === monty_python is now known as dobre_zuo | ||
| phisher1 | if you install grub to the MBR of the drive you are booting to, you can tell grub to switch boot device and boot from another HDD where Windows 7 is installed, then it's boot record takes over. | 14:14 |
| whazilla | anybody who thinks last repos should be ignited or reincarnated ? | 14:14 |
| whazilla | i just hate 9.4 | 14:14 |
| phisher1 | My only concern was grub correcly and automaticlly detecting the OS.. | 14:14 |
| Pirate_Hunter | phisher1, i would have thought the mbr would change depending on the os (do correct me if i am wrong or thinking of something else) | 14:15 |
| Pirate_Hunter | whazilla, hmmm and what is wrong with your pc | 14:15 |
| ActionParsnip | phisher1: then grub is the answer.... | 14:15 |
| phisher1 | it really depends on your configuration.. | 14:15 |
| djoob | ActionParsnip: Now I get this | 14:15 |
| whazilla | Pirate_Hunter: ubuntu is wrong on it ;) | 14:15 |
| phisher1 | yes, grub is most definitelly the answer | 14:15 |
| djoob | ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.com/m76dfea99 | 14:15 |
| ux | phisher1, u can do that both grub and win boot loader | 14:15 |
| phisher1 | vista boot loader is a bitch to make boot linux | 14:15 |
| phisher1 | grub can do it nice and automagicaly | 14:15 |

| whazilla | especially with ubuntu 9.4 | 14:16 |
| ActionParsnip | vlek: it has features that you clearly are unaware of and wil never use | 14:16 |

| Krizz | that's only for software, i'm talking about hardware raid | 14:18 |
| ActionParsnip | Krizz: good lad :D | 14:18 |
| phisher1 | hardware raid would require drivers for your raid controller | 14:18 |
| phisher1 | and for you to configure an array on your raid controller | 14:19 |
| phisher1 | then your OS would see the array as 1 big disk. | 14:19 |
| Krizz | okey | 14:19 |
| ux | Krizz, i use it on HP proliant with logic SCSII raid | 14:19 |
| ActionParsnip | Krizz: the raid will be configured in the card, once it is configured it will e ssen in the OS in whatever config you set it as | 14:19 |
| Krizz | so I don't have to do anything in ubuntu? | 14:19 |
| monestri | kriss, hardware raid is beyond the scope of this channel | 14:19 |
| phisher1 | as long as your raid controller is recognized.. no | 14:19 |

| ActionParsnip | Krizz: once its configured, If you use RAID0 (not true RAID but thats another story) then Ubuntu will only see 1 disk | 14:20 |
| david00` | Hi all | 14:20 |
| Krizz | i'm going setup 2 1tb discs as RAID 0+1 with a card so if it's recognised it's going to show up during the ubuntu setup as 1tb? | 14:20 |

| ttl_wrk | i have a question about editing video, i have a reportage in DVD fomat (3 VOB files) i want to edit the reportage to shorten this it and get all the highlights in 10 minutes, what tools do i use to do this, i need a DVD disc as a final result | 14:52 |
| Magicman1264 | thank you | 14:52 |
| Pirate_Hunter | Magicman1264, why would you want itunes when you have other alternatives like rhythmbox, exaile, banshee (i think) wtc. If you really want to run it through wine but good luck it may/will be buggy | 14:52 |
| leonelpc | good morning | 14:53 |
| moejoe | o/ | 14:53 |
| Magicman1264 | I tried it with wine and it didn't work | 14:53 |
| ux | Magicman1264, use rhythmbox(gnome) or amarok(kde) | 14:53 |
| Magicman1264 | wasn't sure if there was another way to run it | 14:53 |
| rabidweezle | anyone had issues with cpu scaling not switching off half speed? | 14:53 |
| ux | Magicman1264, it was unstable | 14:54 |
| Pirate_Hunter | well im off time to do some work | 14:54 |
| moejoe | What would you use for xfce? | 14:54 |
| ux | Magicman1264, u must run install of iTunes in wine | 14:54 |
| Magicman1264 | I have rhythmbox and it runs great but just does not have a few features Itunes has | 14:54 |
| leonelpc | some brasilian here? | 14:54 |
| * grawity likes Banshee. | 14:55 | |
| znh | moejoe, assuming one uses Xfce for a lightweight system.. I'd pick a lightweight music player | 14:55 |
| ux | znh, i don't use xfce | 14:55 |
| ux | don't know | 14:55 |
| moejoe | znh: Would you know of such a beast? | 14:56 |

| moejoe | znh: As of right now i have to use Movie Player as my files are currently all in .mp3. (i am making the movie to linux from windows) | 14:57 |
| Dam0 | ux>: what is the problem though? | 14:57 |
| Dam0 | ux: how do i purge it? | 14:57 |
| moejoe | znh: Ah yes, i use that for my DVDs. Ill grab it again then. Thanks! | 14:58 |

| L1nuxReign | yes indeed, gnomebaker as well | 15:08 |
| ryanprior | My audio is busted. It's worked in previous versions of Ubuntu, but on Jaunty it goes into an infinite loop of short samples. Can I install a different sound system, or maybe an older kernel? | 15:08 |
| wbc | It is already installed.... | 15:08 |
| L1nuxReign | ok | 15:08 |
| wbc | Wait, the default CD/DVD burner is brasero? | 15:08 |
| DSpair | ryanprior, Have you looked at the Ubuntu forums to see if there is a fix for your chipset? | 15:08 |
| L1nuxReign | not really | 15:08 |
| ryanprior | DSpair: How do I tell what chipset I have? | 15:09 |
| L1nuxReign | nautilus has a burning feature, brasero is another program | 15:09 |
| L1nuxReign | as far as I know | 15:09 |
| wbc | Oh | 15:09 |
| L1nuxReign | what exactly do you need to burn? | 15:10 |
| wbc | Lol, I found it under Sound and Video, thanks L1nuxReign | 15:10 |
| wbc | Well | 15:10 |
| DSpair | ryanprior, There's a command you can use to find all the information about your devices. It's called "lspci". Open a command prompt, type "lspci -vv" and paste the output to the pastebin site. | 15:10 |

| wbc | Wait, hirens got killdisk included? | 15:11 |
| L1nuxReign | yes indeed | 15:11 |
| wbc | Damn | 15:11 |

| kam00zy | hey who wants to help me with something? | 15:16 |
| kam00zy | :) | 15:16 |
| wbc | !ask | 15:16 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:16 |
| kam00zy | aha | 15:16 |
| Slart | compilerwriter: yes.. afaik that is correct | 15:16 |
| kam00zy | ok well here i go | 15:16 |
| compilerwriter | well slart what I got was a half working copy of my old system updated. | 15:17 |
| kam00zy | i have a ubuntu 8 server and would like to set it up as a proxy server so that basically i can tunnel from my work comp to it since there is a web filter at work... how can i do this :) | 15:17 |
| DSpair | ryanprior, You have an ATI SB4x0 audio device. I didn't find anything quickly on the forums, but you might try searching Google. | 15:17 |
| grahamtheegg | hello i was looking for some help with a video capture device | 15:17 |
| Slart | compilerwriter: then it sounds like you just installed over the old system.. ie not a clean install | 15:17 |
| wbc | !ask grahamtheegg | 15:18 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 15:18 |
| compilerwriter | I think I need to redownload the installer cd and double check my md5 etc. | 15:18 |
| compilerwriter | slart. I know but as to how that happened I have no clue. | 15:18 |
| bob_f | Hello, can anybody tell me if it's worth using Ubuntu Netbook on my new Eee PC ? I won't be running gnome on it, so is there any real advantage to it ? | 15:18 |
| grahamtheegg | i have a PX-AV200U and i am unable to get it working# | 15:18 |
| wbc | bob_f, try xubuntu | 15:18 |
| grahamtheegg | it shows as /dev/video0 | 15:18 |
| grahamtheegg | but if i uses vlc to open capture device it shows a blank page | 15:19 |
| Slart | compilerwriter: I think you can do it in the installer.. where you select what hard drives to use and such.. | 15:19 |
| Jimi_Neutral | hey peeps i just installed emacs using the package manager but i cant find a link to it to start it | 15:19 |
| bob_f | wbc: No, I'll be running another WM, so no xfce or anything like that. I'll be setting it up myself. I mean to ask if the Netbook remix offers me anything other than interface tweaks or is it actually going to work better with the Atom chipset ? | 15:19 |
| kam00zy | nobody wants to help me :) | 15:19 |
| kam00zy | :(* | 15:19 |
| wbc | no | 15:19 |
| TuxPurple | Jimi_Neutral, applications> accessories | 15:20 |
| compilerwriter | That is what I thought I had done. It told me it was going to repartition and everything in the partitions would be lost. Somehow it did not. | 15:20 |
| Kartagis | !patience | kam00zy | 15:20 |
| ubottu | kam00zy: 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://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 15:20 |
| wbc | bob_x, have you looked at eeebuntu | 15:20 |
| cj | wow. 1486 people on this channel. | 15:20 |
| Jimi_Neutral | TuxPurple, not there | 15:20 |
| Slart | kam00zy: have some patience.. sometimes people have to think a bit.. look up links etc.. or people don't have an answer | 15:20 |
| bob_f | wbc: You sure ? It apparently requires that I have an Axiom chipset, so I thought maybe there'd be some kernel differences that get better performance/battery life from it. | 15:20 |
| cj | that's crazy, people. | 15:20 |
| bob_f | wbc: Hmm, nope. | 15:20 |
| cj | anyhow... how's karmic coming? should I upgrade? :) | 15:21 |
| kam00zy | u should all have the answer! :P | 15:21 |
| wbc | bob_f : http://www.eeebuntu.org/ | 15:21 |
| Slart | cj: ask in #ubuntu+1 | 15:21 |
| Slart | kam00zy: ehm.. nope.. I don't.. can't speak for the other 1487 people here though | 15:21 |
| kam00zy | lol | 15:22 |
| kam00zy | im sure one of them do :P | 15:22 |
| Lanta | Crossover 8 just released - lets party :) | 15:22 |
| compilerwriter | should I have gone into the custom partition menu and specified something there slart. | 15:22 |
| kam00zy | oo | 15:22 |
| bob_f | wbc: Yeah, just reading now. "Eeebuntu uses a specially customised kernel designed for the EeePC." - sounds promising; thanks for the pointer. | 15:22 |
| kam00zy | links or it didnt happen | 15:22 |
| wbc | bob_f, np | 15:22 |
| Slart | kam00zy: there are web proxies you can use.. but you would have to setup some security/authentication so not everyone can use your proxy.. not really sure how to do that | 15:22 |
| grahamtheegg | Hello, I have a PX-AV200U which when i plug in it shows as /dev/video0 but if i uses vlc to open capture device it shows a blank screen with a green bar along the bottom | 15:23 |

| Slart | kam00zy: ehh.. there are only so many ip's out there.. it's not that hard to scan them.. as some people do.. to find open proxies setup by people who think as you do | 15:25 |
| jasonmchristos | DSpair: the one that is installed under ubuntu when u click enable remote desktop | 15:25 |
| jasonmchristos | DSpair: under preferences in 9.04 | 15:25 |

| jasonmchristos | DSpair: vino in synaptic? | 15:27 |

| joaopinto | EvilDildo, if you are going to update those files via ftp, their group will be set to the uploading primary user group | 15:32 |
| joaopinto | so probably your best choice is to change those users primary groups to www-data | 15:32 |

| DSpair | jasonmchristos, Try just running "vino" from the run dialog. | 15:34 |
| jasonmchristos | DSpair: im guessing because xubuntu isnt using gnome | 15:34 |
| bluemind | is there a way to install ubuntu with minimal or no additional programs, using the gnome desktop and then manually install just what i need? | 15:34 |
| rameshwo | bluemind: i think you should get the minimal cd.. . | 15:34 |
| rameshwo | !minimal | 15:35 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 15:35 |

| wbc | Slart; I have tried letting the hard-drive stay unformatted, and making a new one with the CD | 16:12 |
| {g} | frostburn: but that sounds like 3d stuff. | 16:12 |
| wbc | frostburn; take a look at http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y280/obinice/wininstall_img2.jpg?t=1245164820 | 16:12 |
| {g} | frostburn: to me it feels like even the terminal is slow. | 16:12 |
| Qu4R0w | got it | 16:12 |
| Slart | wbc: in the screen before this one.. select the ext3 partition and press.. L .. I think | 16:12 |
| cactusMD | how can i tell which partition windows is in? | 16:12 |
| Slart | wbc: might be some other key.. hard to remember | 16:13 |
| bastidrazor | cactusMD, sudo fdisk -l | 16:13 |
| cactusMD | same hard drive, third partition would be (hd0,2) or (hd0,3)? | 16:13 |
| swivels | cactusMD: it would say it is formatted ntfs when you fdisk -l | 16:13 |
| wbc | Slart; the problem is that I cant do anything at all. I have used program to let the HD stay unformatted, NTFS, Fat32, Fat16 | 16:13 |
| Slart | cactusMD: grub starts counting at 0 | 16:13 |
| Simetrical | . . . can anyone explain how df -h can output this? /dev/mapper/LVM-sphinx 10G -126M 11G - /var/lib/sphinx | 16:14 |
| {g} | cactusMD: i meant 2d acceleration | 16:14 |
| Simetrical | That's -126M used. | 16:14 |
| wbc | Slart: and windows ran perfectly on it before Ubuntu got installed on it | 16:14 |
| frostburn | wbc, you need to reformat your disk, which is the screen before the one you posted, hit enter return to partition selector and delete it | 16:14 |
| Slart | wbc: ok.. when you press enter you go back to a partition selector.. right? | 16:14 |
| write2copy | hi everyone, I want to install restricted drivers for my Gforce GTX 260m (http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_185.18.14.html), but I want to install it using automatic driver installation, can some one please point me in the right directions? Thanks in advance :) | 16:14 |
| Slart | wbc: where you can somehow choose where to install windows | 16:15 |
| wbc | frostburn: when I am at the partitiontable I make a new partition table, make a new partition at 156-something gigs (max size), and when I press enter to format>install on the partition I get that error message | 16:15 |
| FloridaGuy | hows come i can get better download speeds from a mirrir with only a 100 mb bandwidth then i can from a server with 2000 mb bandwidth | 16:16 |
| cactusMD | should the ntfs partition have a * under BOOT instead of just my ext4 partition? | 16:16 |
| cactusMD | FloridaGuy, the server might be closer | 16:16 |
| Slart | wbc: something like this screen http://web.suffieldacademy.org/ils/netadmin/docs/howto/windows_xp_install/docs/images/setup_partition_select_empty.png | 16:16 |
| {g} | Hey Everybody! Is there a way to detect if 2D graphics accelereation is activated? | 16:16 |
| cactusMD | 2000 mb server in japan won't help you as much as a server in the next room | 16:16 |
| cactusMD | {g}, if you can boot the X server it's on | 16:17 |
| {g} | cactusMD: no X without 2d acceleration? | 16:17 |
| FloridaGuy | cactusMD, the 100 mb bandwidth server is virgina tect...the 2000 mb bandwidth server is mirrors.kernel.org | 16:17 |
| cactusMD | right | 16:17 |
| cactusMD | one might have a lot more people leeching off of it | 16:17 |
| kam00zy | anybody here know how to do a ssh tunnel to a ubuntu8 server from a windows comp? | 16:18 |
| wbc | Alright slart; I press C to make a new partition. Choose size. Press enter while the size of the parition i want to format is highlited, and get this: http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y280/obinice/wininstall_img2.jpg?t=1245164820 | 16:18 |
| FloridaGuy | plus i get better iso's from the lower bandwidth | 16:18 |
| Slart | wbc: did you remove all partitions first? | 16:18 |
| wbc | Slart: Yes | 16:18 |
| Pici | Slart, wbc: This certainly looks like something that should really be handled in ##windows | 16:19 |
| Slart | Pici: mm.. yes.. I agree | 16:19 |
| swivels | kam00zy, if you are on the same network you can use putty. | 16:19 |
| wbc | Windows @ freenode, neat | 16:19 |
| wbc | #windows | 16:19 |
| kam00zy | im not swivels | 16:19 |
| Slart | wbc: ask in ##windows .. they will be able to help you | 16:19 |
| kam00zy | its a dedicated server im trying to tunnel to | 16:19 |
| ethan_space | hello..need some unable to boot windows after installing ubuntu 9.04 | 16:19 |
| Slart | !grub | ethan_space | 16:19 |
| ubottu | ethan_space: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 16:19 |
| swivels | kam00zy: does the server have ssh-server installed? | 16:19 |
| PerryArmstrong | hey can anyone help me in this problem i posted here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1188560 | 16:20 |
| kam00zy | it has ssh lol | 16:20 |
| Slart | ethan_space: do you get an error message? | 16:20 |
| kam00zy | lemme put server on it | 16:20 |
| ethan_space | yes..the error is "disk read error..press ctrl at del" | 16:20 |
| kam00zy | swivels it has openssh server | 16:21 |
| cactusMD | well i pointed grub to the right partition windows is in, now it's giving me "Error 18: selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS | 16:21 |
| ethan_space | i installed ubuntu on a external harddrive..where as windows is installed in the laptop harddisk | 16:21 |
| swivels | kam00zy: then you can use any ssh program for windows like putty and you should be able to log into it | 16:21 |
| kam00zy | how can i tunnel firefox to it | 16:22 |
| kam00zy | like a socks 5 connection | 16:22 |
| levene | when i click a link in xpdf, it is loaded in opera. I want it to appear in firefox. How's that done? | 16:22 |
| levene | the manpage seems unhelpful | 16:22 |

| kam00zy | yup | 16:22 |

| Xubuntu | Hi | 16:23 |
| sedontane | sadly im only here because i need help too | 16:23 |
| swivels | kam00zy: then you probably want to use something like squid on the server | 16:24 |

| mohan_ | hi.. currently compiling a RT kernel.. | 16:24 |
| kam00zy | i put squid on it | 16:24 |
| mohan_ | what is the command to make it deb file.. ? | 16:24 |
| kam00zy | thats the farthest ive gotten | 16:24 |
| sedontane | I need to make Mythbuntu 9.04 see my IR reciever | 16:24 |
| kam00zy | as in i havent configured it or anything | 16:24 |
| mohan_ | should it be done after menu config? | 16:24 |
| swivels | kamoozy: if you have squid up and running properly, then you can set the proxy server in your browser to as the IP of the squid server | 16:24 |
| Xubuntu | sadfas | 16:25 |
| vigo | levene: It can be done in the browser or in the Main Menu widget , System>Preferences>Main Menu, that widget will or can be used to set and assign default programs and how they or what they should work with as default. | 16:25 |
| mohan_ | anybody have idea regarding compiling kernele? | 16:25 |
| mohan_ | i meant kernel? | 16:25 |
| kam00zy | swivels how do i find the ip of the squid server | 16:25 |
| mohan_ | from source? | 16:25 |
| kam00zy | using root | 16:25 |
| levene | vigo: are you sure? i don't see anything about xpdf in there | 16:25 |
| om26er | what is the difference between ubuntu and fedora. ubuntu is on a cd and fedora on a dvd | 16:26 |
| levene | vigo: i think it may be because sensible-browser runs opera, but update-alternatives doesn't seem to know about firefox :( | 16:26 |
| Rajini | I am running Jauntu on T60 lapto | 16:26 |
| swivels | kam00zy: on the server type ifconfig and it will show your address | 16:26 |
| Matic | Hi guys, I know this is offtopic but can someone tell me whether there is an IRC channel for shell script programming? and what is the url? please help me. Thanks | 16:26 |
| Rajini | I want 32 bit color depth for Radeon X1300 card | 16:26 |
| Rajini | how do I get ? | 16:26 |
| levene | Matic: #bash is quite good.. if you use bash | 16:26 |
| kam00zy | after i did apt-get insall squid is it already configured proporly? | 16:26 |
| kam00zy | properly | 16:26 |
| swivels | kam00zy: nope, you'll need to edit squid.conf and depending on your setup it can be quite a bit, you'll have to look up what you want to do. | 16:27 |
| vigo | levene: Yes, I have used it on other systems to set default things, or you can do it from inside Opera and Firefox, like Opera Do NOT open xyz, Firefox Open xyz. | 16:27 |
| grawity | Ubuntu hasn't yet perfected the telepathic configuration, so you'll probably need to make it do what you need it to do. | 16:27 |
| Matic | levene, thanks so much | 16:27 |
| kam00zy | i just wanna tunnel to my server from firefox so i can get thru a filter lol | 16:27 |
| levene | vigo: but i don't understand. it's xpdf that needs configuring, not firefox or opera | 16:27 |
| swivels | kam00zy: you can start the default install by typing sudo /etc/init.d/squid start | 16:28 |
| ethan_space | windows = dev/sda1 and ubuntu=dev/sdb1..how does this correlate to hd0 or 1 in the menu.lst ? | 16:28 |
| levene | vigo: i.e. the problem is that when i click a link in xpdf, it loads in the wrong browser | 16:28 |
| Rajini | I want 32 bit color depth for Radeon X1300 card, how do I get ? | 16:28 |
| kam00zy | ok squid is started... no how do i connect to it>? | 16:29 |
| levene | vigo: and in system->preferred applications, it does say firefox already ... | 16:29 |
| ethan_space | just wanted to verify...the title says "RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows" | 16:29 |
| swivels | kam00zy: in your browser set the address of the proxy server to the IP address of the server | 16:29 |
| ethan_space | but in my case i am trying to recover windows after installing ubuntu | 16:29 |
| kam00zy | do i do user@ipaddress? | 16:30 |
| Rajini | just reboot your pc | 16:30 |
| === jussio1_ is now known as jussio1 | ||
| swivels | kam00zy: no use the actual address in your browser options like 192.168.blah.blah | 16:30 |
| juanbond | Hey guys, how can I do multiple operations on a set of files found using the find command. I'm searching my directory which has a bunch of sub-directories for images, and if it finds a jpg, I want to get the directory name that holds the jpg, then move that entire folder to another folder. Right now, I'm using a combination of find and xargs, but can only seem to use xargs to do the dirname on the jpg found. | 16:31 |
| levene | vigo: ok, i got it! update-alternatives --config x-www-browser did the trick | 16:31 |
| kam00zy | my server isnt on the same network as my computer im on | 16:31 |
| CartoonCat | Hello | 16:31 |
| levene | juanbond: use the -xargs flag | 16:31 |
| === jdo_ is now known as jdobrien | ||
| levene | juanbond: erm, i mean the -exec flag | 16:31 |
| ethan_space | will super grub help recover and boot in windows ? | 16:31 |
| sao_rzvan | CartoonCat:hello | 16:31 |
| juanbond | levene: can you do multiple execs? | 16:32 |
| levene | juanbond: how do you mean? | 16:32 |
| CartoonCat | What is the diffrence from logging in via kdm at boot and doing a console login and then startx? the kdm login fails with a battery status, the other does not | 16:32 |
| vigo | levene: Oh ok, a misunderstanding, I thought you meant the other way around, ok, open firefox, neato! Please post any fixes or tips to the forums. | 16:32 |
| swivels | kam00zy: then you need to find whatever the address of the proxy server is. If it isn't on the same network, you'll need its external address and make sure that NAT is configured properly on that side | 16:32 |
| juanbond | levene: I need to perform dirname on each of my results and then move those folders somewhere. | 16:32 |
| levene | juanbond: if you have something complicated to do, you can write a shell script and pass that to the -exec | 16:32 |
| kam00zy | ive got the external ip for it and all that | 16:32 |
| fccf | juanbond: the operator you need is pipe | ... so find something | xargs | 16:32 |
| kam00zy | what port do i set my browser to? | 16:32 |
| swivels | kam00zy: iirc default for squid is 8080 | 16:33 |
| fourtwizz | I have just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on a spare system. After installation I atempted to get on the internet and I was unable to connect. I have a wired connection that says it is connected and it pulls the IP address 192.168.1.102. I attempted to manually configure the IP address and that did not work. I tried "ping -c 4 google.com" and my results was a 25% packet loss with a time of 17070ms. | 16:33 |
| fourtwizz | My system board is an Asus P4s800-mx with an onboard NIC. My linksys router is running the latest version of tomato incase that would matter. Does anyone have any sugestions as to what may be causing my problem? | 16:33 |
| juanbond | fccf, so do find ... | xargs ... | xargs ? | 16:33 |
| kam00zy | yaaaaa that didnt work swivels lol | 16:33 |
| swivels | kam00zy: the port setting will be in your squid.conf. Youll also have to make sure that you have iptables set up properly to allow access | 16:33 |
| vigo | !guile | 16:34 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about guile | 16:34 |

| kam00zy | swivels ok how do i do that? | 16:35 |
| l1k4n | Hey guys. | 16:35 |
| swivels | kam00zy | !iptables | 16:35 |
| levene | juanbond: alternatively: find ... | while read filename; do dir=$(dirname $filename); mv ...; done | 16:35 |
| l1k4n | If I change graphic card from Nvidia to ATI, do I need to uninstall my drivers or something before I do that? | 16:35 |
| kam00zy | !iptables | 16:35 |
| juanbond | levene: thank you. Just got it as well. | 16:35 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'ufw' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Uncomplicated_Firewall_ufw), or 'iptables' (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo). GUI applications such as Firestarter/Gufw (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE) also exist | 16:35 |
| swivels | !iptables | 16:35 |
| levene | juanbond: erm, with lots of quotation marks to make it actually work | 16:35 |
| juanbond | levene: find folder/ -type f -name "*.jpg" -print0 | xargs -0 -I {} dirname {} | xargs -I {} mv {} otherfolder/ | 16:37 |

| fourtwizz | obey_me: I have tried other sites with no luck. | 16:53 |
| === MaWaLe is now known as MosquitoOo | ||
| giiker | would I be better off using RSA or DSA? I read one is faster than the other and DSA was designed by a N*S*A agent | 16:54 |
| EvaLuaTe | is there any 'pretty' way of showing all the partitions? fdisk -l is pretty nice, but the size of the disk is unreadable by the average user, and also it doesn't show the mountpoint, which would also be very helpful. is there any prettier alternative? | 16:54 |
| fourtwizz | fccf: I have swapped cables I will post results momentarily | 16:54 |
| obey_me | fourtwizz: can you ping your gateway with no packet loss? | 16:54 |

| fourtwizz | fccf: I was indeed the cable. Of course it is always the simplist solution. Thank you all very much for your help. | 16:55 |
| cactusMD | so WINXP has to be on the primary partition to load there's no way to trick it, I have to move it to the primary partition, or install the windows bootloader? | 16:55 |

| RalphSpencer | Hello? | 16:56 |

| fccf | fourtwizz: glad I could help | 16:56 |
| fourtwizz | obey_me: Thanks for you assistance it was the ethernet cable :-) | 16:56 |
| EvaLuaTe | geronimo9: cfdisk throws an error | 16:56 |
| swivels | cactusMD: iirc an OS always has to be on primary partition, not an extended one. You can set GRUB To boot from other partitions, but it won't work if you are installing on a traditional "extended" partition | 16:56 |
| EvaLuaTe | geronimo9: " FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive" | 16:57 |
| cactusMD | i mean it has to be on dev/sda1 right? | 16:57 |
| geronimo9 | EvaLuaTe: try sudo cfdisk | 16:57 |
| swivels | cactusMD: nope that shouldn't matter as long as GRUB is configured properly | 16:57 |

| sedontane | what changed between 8.1 and 9.04 because i cant seem to find the changelist anywhere | 17:20 |
| grawity | funkycat90210: The latter one only requests a 512 meg file to be allocated - and some filesystems support "sparse files" which would break the whole thing | 17:21 |
| fccf | sedontane: your configs were probably replaced by the upgrade | 17:21 |
| grawity | (though I'm really not sure if that's the reason) | 17:21 |
| funkycat90210 | grawity: got it | 17:21 |
| sedontane | i didnt upgrade | 17:21 |
| erUSUL | giiker: i suppose the client can tell what version it has negotiated with the server it connects to... or just force ssh to use protocolo 1 or 2 if it fails you know what are supported and what not | 17:22 |
| sedontane | fccf: I have a clean install of 9.04 | 17:22 |
| xcerca | does anybody edit their fstab to automount externall usb hdd's that are always connected ? or will they automount by themselves if they're pluged in during boot up ? | 17:22 |
| funkycat90210 | If I add "/mnt/512Mb.swap none swap sw 0 0" to /etc/fstab, will it be overwritten? | 17:22 |
| Threetimes | g procmail | 17:23 |
| giiker | erUSUL: ok I guess I will try that, thanks! | 17:23 |
| nofilicity | Hello. I'm currently not getting any sound when attempting to play flash in firefox, or any other browser. (Sorry if this is the wrong channel). My sound settings on Ubuntu are set to use OSS, and I have FP10 | 17:23 |
| Threetimes | sorry, wrong place | 17:23 |
| erUSUL | giiker: or pass it -vvv | 17:23 |
| xcerca | nofilicity can you hear other sounds ? | 17:23 |
| fccf | sedontane: I'm guessing you had v4l working in 8.10 and it doesn't work in 9.04 ... and I say... | 17:23 |
| fccf | !worksforme | sedontane | 17:23 |
| ubottu | sedontane: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/ | 17:23 |
| nofilicity | on rhythmbox, yes | 17:23 |
| erUSUL | giiker: when passing -vvv you will se something like debug1: Remote protocol version 2.0, remote software version OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5ubuntu1 | 17:24 |
| sedontane | fccf: I havent personally used 8.1 i have it on good authority that it works on 8.1 | 17:24 |
| xcerca | what flash plugin did you install , the adobe one , or one of the generics ? | 17:24 |
| scotteh | anyone able to help me resume my failed 8.10 -> 9.04 upgrade, http://pastebin.com/d38037c52 ? | 17:24 |
| nofilicity | flashplugin-nonfree | 17:25 |
| fccf | sedontane: that might be a good place to start ... or better yet is 8.04 which is a Long Term Support version that at least for me has been extremly reliable | 17:25 |
| giiker | erUSUL: I found the config file for the client and one can also set the preffered protocol and forgot what you just said about verbose... | 17:25 |

| fccf | sedontane: we cannot support that as it is a derivitave version ... reccommend the real deal | 17:26 |
| nofilicity | xcerca: I've tried the Adobe one as well | 17:26 |
| sedontane | so install ubuntu and then install the MythTV packages on top | 17:27 |
| xcerca | scotteh , see my pm | 17:27 |

| giiker | erUSUL: verbose threw out hte info I was looking for thanks again! | 17:28 |
| fccf | sedontane: what I would do ... you might want the myth repos later on though as they are built from svn and are probably newer versions than the ubuntu packaged ones | 17:28 |
| erUSUL | giiker: no problem | 17:28 |

| FireFreek | I don't have any connection to the internet other than with a windows computer | 17:29 |
| Pici | RalphSpencer: The 'help help help' stuff, it only makes this channel unreadable and makes people not want to answer you. | 17:30 |
| cruital_thread | hello | 17:30 |
| SiDi | FireFreek: then you can download the package http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ndiswrapper-common | 17:30 |
| fccf | FireFreek: http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/net/ndisgtk - you might want this too | 17:31 |
| RalphSpencer | Well, no one is answering even without that | 17:31 |
| SpaceBass | hey folks | 17:31 |
| SiDi | FireFreek: i also recommand you to download http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 | 17:31 |
| SpaceBass | having some challenges with samba - trying to share my user directory, but I cannot connect from windows or mac clients | 17:31 |
| SiDi | FireFreek: and there is a package named http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ndisgtk which has a GUI for it | 17:32 |
| Martin_vW | RalphSpencer: what did you delete, then? Is the window still open so you can copy-paste ist somewhere? | 17:32 |
| SiDi | fccf: meh :p | 17:32 |
| RalphSpencer | The files that appeared in there | 17:32 |
| SpaceBass | my smb.conf is here http://pastebin.ca/1462321 | 17:32 |

| xcerca | anybody have external usb drives attached that always show up on boot up ? i have to unplug mine and reconnect it every time | 17:33 |
| Martin_vW | RalphSpencer: if not, open a terminal, type "cat .bash_history", and paste the relevant parts e.g. on http://pastie.org | 17:33 |
| kriel | Okay, strange question. I found out this wonderful thing called persistent liveusb boot. It looks interesting. My question: exactly _what_ is persistent on it? Everything? Just /home? If I apt-get install something, does that persist as well? | 17:33 |
| Martin_vW | we can't help you if we don't know what exactly is damaged | 17:34 |
| fccf | kriel: everything persists | 17:34 |
| xcerca | kriel yes | 17:34 |
| Martin_vW | kriel: almost everything should be persistent | 17:34 |
| RalphSpencer | cat: .bash_history: No such file or directory | 17:34 |
| Martin_vW | except of timezone settings, as I found out | 17:34 |
| xcerca | untill you run out of space | 17:34 |
| kriel | mkay. that works. Thank you. | 17:34 |
| dakarn | kriel: imagine a live cd where every change you make is saved | 17:34 |
| SpaceBass | anyone farmilar with samba and jaunty? | 17:35 |
| SpaceBass | familiar | 17:35 |
| kriel | dakarn: so, basically a usb boot into my own hdd. Got it. | 17:35 |
| FireFreek | SiDi, when installing the .deb file for ndiwrapper-utils-1.9, it says "Error: Wrong architecture 'amd64'" Should I use the other file for an AMD Athlon 64 X2 | 17:35 |
| RalphSpencer | Wait | 17:35 |
| dakarn | kriel: not into your hdd | 17:35 |
| RalphSpencer | It listed ALL the commands I remember typing into the bash | 17:35 |
| kriel | dakarn: well my own 'hdd', as in my own system. | 17:36 |
| fccf | FireFreek: use the i386 unless you did the x64 install which you obviously didn't | 17:36 |
| Martin_vW | RalphSpencer: yes, that's the idea | 17:36 |
| FireFreek | Oh ok thanks. | 17:36 |

I've been trying to set-up a proxy server (you know, do my part for Iran, and so I can get past some of my works firewalls, nonetheless!) but I haven't really been having any luck.

| treyh222 | DevilAsh, i can help you, sent you a pm | 17:51 |

| sazma | fccf: I also read that dell's Ubuntu isn't really upgradable? true? | 17:51 |
| frostburn | Draglor, it's a theme | 17:51 |
| Draglor | try removing it | 17:51 |
| unko | Draglor, it's a theme engine | 17:51 |
| fccf | sazma: what? redonkulous | 17:51 |
| frostburn | sazma, false | 17:51 |
| Draglor | seems there's an error with this theme | 17:51 |
| unko | Draglor, hmm, i wonder how a theme could do that? | 17:52 |
| sazma | fccf: frostburn: so they don't have proprietary drivers supplied by dell? | 17:52 |
| Draglor | unko: Maybe it's a bad theme messing with more than some theme files | 17:52 |
| RalphSpencer | Martin_vW, Now I'm reinstalling Nautilus | 17:53 |
| unko | Draglor, hmm, well i asked someone to put the theme engine into a .deb maybe he messed up | 17:53 |
| frostburn | sazma, what drivers? there's no such thing, if there is, it's a violation of the GPL | 17:53 |
| jp__ | whats going on everyone | 17:53 |
| Draglor | maybe ... it seems the error is within this thing .. so remove it and it should run | 17:53 |
| Divinity | ok what do I type for my new setting's for my tv? | 17:53 |
| DDaygold | can i talk about xubuntu problems here? | 17:53 |
| RalphSpencer | Martin_vW, But it didn't work | 17:53 |
| fccf | sazma: they arn't using proprietary hardware ... the most proprietary thing in it is the broadcom wireless card and they have good drivers for that | 17:53 |
| unko | Draglor, hmm, ok | 17:53 |
| fccf | DDaygold: yes, so long as it isn't an interface issue ... if it is the OS ... go for it .. we will tell you to stop if it is xubuntu related though | 17:54 |
| Draglor | unko: you can build debs (for your system) easily yourself using checkinstall | 17:54 |
| heatmzzr | does anyone know the file that controls tty foreground colors? i would like to change them... | 17:54 |

| fccf | heatmzzr: setterm background-black foreground-red | 17:56 |
| Draglor | unko it's just a helper to get debs out of things that aren't available as deb. (Better for maintenance and updating) | 17:56 |
| unko | Draglor, what are you saying i should do? | 17:56 |
| fccf | heatmzzr: use setterm --- it will tell you the commands | 17:57 |
| Draglor | first try to uninstall this theme .. if it works try to add the seem as before just using "checkinstall installcommand" to install the seem .. you'll get a deb package that shouldn't mess up with your system | 17:57 |
| qvp | I installed Ubuntu with Wubi and would like my pc to boot Ubuntu instead of Windows 7 by default... Where do I change this? | 17:57 |
| unko | Draglor, ok i removed the aurora engine, that was a .deb it works fine now.. but i think it was the deb itself.. do you know were i could get a working one? | 17:58 |
| Draglor | qvp edit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 17:58 |
| Draglor | unko: i just wrote you where | 17:58 |
| qvp | Draglor: Thank you, I will take a look there. | 17:58 |
| lampliter | any solutions to "heavy disk io freezes system" type problem | 17:58 |
| frostburn | qvp, you'll need to change the option default in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 17:58 |
| Draglor | there's an option "default" change it to the number of your default entry (starting at 0 not at 1) | 17:59 |
| unko | Draglor, so i get the source and do a checkinstall than it will make the deb? | 17:59 |
| frostburn | lampliter, run iostat/top | 17:59 |
| lampliter | what do you want to know from top? | 17:59 |
| Draglor | unko: normally you do "./configure;make;sudo make install" in this case you do "./configure;make;sudo make install" and you get a deb (you have to install checkinstall first ;) ) | 18:00 |
| frostburn | lampliter, if some process is iobound, it will take up wait cycles | 18:00 |
| qvp | Draglor: frostburn: Thank you, that worked. | 18:00 |
| lampliter | the three most intensive processes are firefox, vmware-vmx an xorg | 18:00 |
| Draglor | damn second line should be "./configure; make ; sudo checkinstall make install" | 18:00 |
| unko | Draglor, ok how do i install checkinstall? | 18:00 |
| ims | draglor,thank you, thank you , I was able to login on xfce4. | 18:01 |
| frostburn | lampliter, it's probably vmware, it's very io heavy | 18:01 |
| Draglor | sudo apt-get install checkinstall | 18:01 |
| lampliter | happens when I don't run vmware | 18:01 |
| rameshwo | Draglor: i get some errors in configure.. | 18:01 |
| lampliter | it is anytime the disk gets hit hard | 18:01 |
| Draglor | rameshwo: On which app? maybe some libs missing? | 18:01 |
| === cactus is now known as CactusMD | ||
| frostburn | lampliter, any iobound operations will cause slowness, do you have more than 1 processor/core? | 18:03 |

| unko | Draglor, ok done installing. now i get the source right? | 18:03 |
| Draglor | yes, get the source and do anything like usual .. you just put a checkinstall in front of the final "make install" command | 18:04 |
| === CactusMD is now known as cactus | ||
| Draglor | this should get you a *.deb in the directory defined in your /etc/checkinstallrc | 18:04 |

| unko | Draglor, ok so i CD /home/michael/aurora-1.5 than checkinstall than what | 18:05 |

| thebloggu | Some time ago my ubuntu installation somewhere on boot jumps to verbose mode, as well as it is taking much longer to boot now than before. It doesnt seem there are any errors | 18:45 |
| chaos2fu | jackrabbit: install compizmanager | 18:45 |
| ARMENIAN | fccf: ok, thanks :D | 18:46 |

| richj | om26er, if you have an ipv6 compatible connection, its all good | 18:49 |
| chiossif | om26er: Opera is fine although I prefer Firefox - | 18:49 |
| |{urse | do you use ipv6? | 18:49 |
| |{urse | richj? | 18:49 |
| chiossif | om26er: - due to my favorite plugins | 18:49 |

| roracle | could someone help me set up MIDI so it can work? | 18:50 |
| |{urse | oh | 18:50 |

| ronen | now what do i do? | 18:53 |
| Jackrabbit | richj ya im there but the option is not there like it is in this book im reading, there should be a tab that says visual effects right? | 18:53 |
| |{urse | well roracle, sudo apt-get install timidity++ | 18:53 |

| Schneff | Could someone help me open a program on a specific desktop from terminal? | 18:58 |
| richj | Jackrabbit, cmdline: glxgears | 18:58 |
| |{urse | looks like fokay good so your midi modules are being loaded | 18:58 |
| Mike_lifeguard | according to 'man sha1' you can use 'sha1 /path/to/file' to hash it, but when I do that, I'm told 'bash: sha1: command not found' - what am I doing wrong? | 18:58 |
| roracle | now for sound though? i'm not hearing anything | 18:58 |
| richj | Jackrabbit, will test the 3d capabilities of your system | 18:58 |
| ngirard | kazagistar: okay, nevermind. I'm running out of time anyway, so i'll just give up today. The official documentation is awfully obscure. Compared with other distros, it's quite a shame indeed. Anyway, thanks for your feedback ! | 18:59 |

| bruce89 | Acedip: remove all but the latest kernel | 19:07 |

| om26er | but it is | 19:07 |

| richj | Jackrabbit, cmdline: sudo apt-get install compiz | 19:07 |
| bruce89 | Acedip: remove packages you don't use | 19:07 |
| mangoo | a few tabs or any video makes firefox to use cpu >40% | 19:07 |

| mangoo | and now it's going to crash | 19:08 |
| Jackrabbit | I installed compiz advanced ahh crap the normal compiz is not installed | 19:08 |
| sebsebseb | mangoo: you can try a differnet profile | 19:08 |
| mangoo | i've closed firefox | 19:08 |
| Acedip | bruce89, but just removing packages doesnt help that much, when their libraries keep lingering around | 19:08 |
| sebsebseb | mangoo: you can download a version directly from Mozilla, and if you do that may as well get Firefox 3.5 beta4 | 19:08 |
| mangoo | i've reinstalled firefox | 19:08 |
| sebsebseb | mangoo: and there are other good browsers for Linux as well | 19:08 |
| richj | Dragon_Master, give me the exact location of the folders and I will give you a command to delelete them... for example, sudo rm -r /media/disk/folder ... however be very carefull to get it right or you might delete stuff accidently | 19:08 |

| Acedip | bruce89, you mean aptitude remove <package> will do the job? | 19:10 |

| cabrey | |{urse, gksu nautilus | 19:10 |
| Jackrabbit | richj ahh wait a sec theres options in compiz | 19:10 |
| richj | Jackrabbit, it wasnt already installed??? It should have been, compiz has been default for the last few versions | 19:10 |
| |{urse | yeah that too | 19:10 |
| ronen | thanks guys but cant it be perminant? | 19:10 |
| bruce89 | Acedip: I think apt-get autoremove may work | 19:10 |
| |{urse | tho i dont see a prob with sudo when its not in a script | 19:11 |
| Jackrabbit | richj ya It wasnt there for some reason | 19:11 |
| Phoebus | Is the live cd same as the installation cd? | 19:11 |
| |{urse | i use gksu in scriptsa | 19:11 |
| |{urse | just sudo for oneliners | 19:11 |
| richj | Jackrabbit, that is very curious | 19:11 |
| Acedip | bruce89, well i've used apt-get always. | 19:11 |
| fccf | paolo88: what client are you using to remote in? | 19:11 |
| cabrey | |{urse, gksu sets up the environment correctly | 19:11 |
| |{urse | oh i wasnt aware of that | 19:11 |
| * |{urse goes off to google | 19:11 | |
| bruce89 | Acedip: you can see what deborphan has to say | 19:11 |
| Acedip | bruce89, so that eventually means aptitude is better than why dont we always use it? | 19:11 |
| mangoo | sebsebseb: no luck | 19:11 |
| bruce89 | Acedip: try telling the powers that be that | 19:12 |
| bruce89 | Debian recommends aptitude | 19:12 |
| mangoo | cpu usage >80% | 19:12 |
| paolo88 | fccf: i use vinagre | 19:12 |
| sebsebseb | mangoo: you deleted .mozilla from home or moved it? so you had a new profile? | 19:12 |
| richj | Jackrabbit, if you are new to ubuntu, and you are willing / (have not changed much) I recomend a resinstall as a good option. Compiz should have been installed with 9.04. If it hasnt been, something funky may have happened | 19:12 |
| lada | I'd like to shrink my linux partition. how would I do that, being that it's locked in gparted? | 19:12 |
| Jackrabbit | richj whats even weirder is that in appearence there still in only the 4 tabs but now in compiz settings manager I can see the cube3d and stuff I wounder if it will work | 19:12 |

| |{urse | all i see is that gksu (graphical sudo) requires password entry in an entrybos whereas sudo requires the password in the console | 19:13 |

| bruce89 | !gksu | |{urse | 19:14 |
| ubottu | |{urse: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 19:14 |

| bruce89 | sebsebseb: indeed, one reason for my decision | 19:14 |

| ectospasm | gabbah: look at the output of dmesg | 19:16 |
| gabbah | after i plug it in, how can i find what device it is? | 19:16 |
| cabrey | x29a, try #ubuntu-motu or just google qt ppa ubuntu and see if that gets you anything | 19:16 |
| ectospasm | when you plug it in, it should say which device it is, gabbah | 19:17 |
| |{urse | richj thats top | 19:17 |
| x29a | cabrey: ah, found one | 19:17 |

| ronen | CAN ANYONE HELP ME ON PM? IM NEW TO UBUNTU AND ITS KINDA COMPLICATED | 19:17 |
| richj | |{urse, thats exactly what I wanted thankyou!! | 19:17 |
| ronen | ?? | 19:17 |
| cabrey | !caps | 19:17 |
| |{urse | ^_- | 19:17 |
| ubottu | PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 19:17 |
| mangoo | bruce89: well that can't be helped | 19:17 |
| regeya | !CAPS | ronen | 19:17 |
| bruce89 | x29a: why does something depends on a minor version bump? | 19:17 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: use the terminal | 19:17 |
| ubottu | ronen: please see above | 19:17 |
| bruce89 | mangoo: well, not by us anyway | 19:18 |
| richj | ronen, whats the problem? | 19:18 |
| sebsebseb | |Ryan: what are you currently using? as I already asked and http://releases.ubuntu.com md5sum your download as well :) the code you compare to is found there as well | 19:18 |
| credo | gabbah: check dmesg command, it should say | 19:18 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: oh you mean i should use dmesg before pluging it in? | 19:18 |
| sebsebseb | !md5sum | IRyan | 19:18 |
| ubottu | IRyan: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more | 19:18 |
| gabbah | ok | 19:18 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: no | 19:18 |
| mangoo | buruce89: yap | 19:18 |
| x29a | bruce89: what do you mean? | 19:18 |
| tyler_d | so I have webmin installed, and need to add the plugin for bind9.... have the source extracted... where does it need to go? | 19:18 |
| ronen | i cant define my webcam richj | 19:18 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: if Ubuntu automatically mounts it (it's available in Nautilus), you can use the mount command to see what device it mounted on /media/disk (or wherever) | 19:18 |
| bruce89 | x29a: 4.3.1 is a minor version change | 19:19 |
| mangoo | bruce89: and one thing i don't understood, while i reinstalled firefox with synaptic | 19:19 |
| richj | ronen, your webcam has not been recognised? | 19:19 |
| mangoo | it didn't download anything | 19:19 |
| x29a | bruce89: i mean 4.5.1 | 19:19 |
| sebsebseb | |Ryan: only thing with 8.10 is April next year and it will run out of support, it will go end of life | 19:19 |
| mangoo | just installed | 19:19 |
| ronen | no... not at all.. | 19:19 |
| fccf | paolo88: seems to be working using vino>vinagre on my systems ... not sure I can help you further ... prehaps reinstall vino & vinagre to see if it is an install issue | 19:19 |
| Pirate_Hunter | mangoo, question in one line please and make them complete | 19:19 |
| |Ryan | Is ubuntu 8 Called intrepid Ibex? | 19:19 |
| ronen | richj: do you have any idea what can i do? | 19:19 |
| sebsebseb | |Ryan: yes | 19:19 |
| bruce89 | x29a: sorry, it just seems odd to me | 19:19 |
| x29a | bruce89: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/texmaker/+bug/348028 | 19:19 |
| |Ryan | Thanks. | 19:19 |
| l1k4n-ubuntu | Where do I start EnvyNG when Ive just installed it? | 19:20 |
| ronen | richj: its a very generic webcam | 19:20 |
| mangoo | sorry | 19:20 |
| sebsebseb | |Ryan: well Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron the LTS Long Term Support and 8.10 yep Intrepid Ibex | 19:20 |
| ectospasm | |Ryan: Intrepid is 8.10 | 19:20 |
| bruce89 | x29a: I see | 19:20 |
| ectospasm | |Ryan: Hardy Heron is 8.04, LTS | 19:20 |
| Phoebus | Anyone having problems using card readers on sony vaios? Or solution to that? | 19:20 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: i don't think it's listing it.... maybe it's because the current file system is "gphoto"? | 19:20 |
| sebsebseb | |Ryan: what are you currently using? you didn't answer | 19:20 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: use the terminal | 19:20 |
| bruce89 | |Ryan: yes, the bit after the '.' is significant | 19:20 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: i did. i wrote "mount" | 19:21 |
| paolo88 | fccf: there is the problem using a windows client too, i think a server issue | 19:21 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: if it's mounted, it will show there. If it's not, then you'll have to use dmesg from the terminal | 19:21 |
| fccf | paolo88: I'd reinstall the server side | 19:21 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: nautilus give it a nice big label... my other drives are listed when i use the mount command... but i don't see the usb | 19:21 |
| IceBreaker_kTx | is fluxbox? http://img44.imageshack.us/img44/9227/linuxgeek.jpg | 19:21 |
| ronen | well i still cant fix my problem... but i thank everyone here for trying to help | 19:21 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: well. it's mounted because i can see the files in it | 19:21 |
| ectospasm | If you're lucky, the last few lines will be the device stuff for your mp3 player, gabbah | 19:22 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: i just don't know WHICH one it is in the mount command | 19:22 |
| x29a | cabrey, bruce89: that seems to fix it, thank you again | 19:22 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: is /media/whatever listed in mount? | 19:22 |
| paolo88 | fccf: using synaptic and mark for reinstallation? can be a problem due to open gate on the router? | 19:22 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: media/disk1 and disk2 are listed yes | 19:22 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: but not my mp3 player | 19:22 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: how do you know? Can you "cd /media/disk{1,2}" and see your mp3 files? | 19:23 |
| Pirate_Hunter | IceBreaker_kTx, on pm can you tell me where you got that theme from especially for gkrellm | 19:23 |
| _Clumsy_ | hi, anyone know if there are custom repositories with newer samba versions for the intrepid release ? | 19:23 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: no, those under media are my other drives..i know their labels | 19:23 |
| richj | can anyone tell me a definative way to tell which version of ubuntu I running for the command line? | 19:23 |
| fccf | paolo88: if you can VNC in over the local net and get the error ... there is nothing wrong with your router ... you will need to make sure port 5900 is forwarded to your vino box before you leave the building | 19:24 |
| bruce89 | richj: lsb_release -a | 19:24 |
| richj | nice work bruce | 19:24 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: so it's not mounted, use dmesg | 19:25 |
| fccf | paolo88: I'd tell synaptic to completly remove and then reinstall ... that way you will clear out all configs | 19:25 |
| gabbah | but how can i see the mp3 player in nautilus then? | 19:25 |
| gabbah | ectospasm: the label is "SanDisk Corp. SanDisk Sansa m240" | 19:26 |
| paolo88 | fccf: but i can controll it, i move the mouse and open application....i think the gate is open well | 19:26 |
| ectospasm | gabbah: that doesn't mean much | 19:26 |
| Acedip | bruce89, well i've managed some space with removing useless apps, well id also installed kubuntu-desktop to try it but dont require it anymore, and i'd also removed kubuntu-desktop but that doesnt seem to have removed kde completely. | 19:26 |
| fccf | paolo88: something is wrong with the serverside install of vino .. remove and replace | 19:26 |
| ectospasm | Acedip: you may still have kde apps installed that require qt and kde libs | 19:26 |
| vigo | gabbah: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man4/usb.4.html Did you install the BSD USB thing? | 19:27 |
| paolo88 | fccf: i must delet any directori ./dir_vino? | 19:27 |
| bruce89 | Acedip: indeed, you'll need to do each package manually, try aptitude's "UI" | 19:27 |
| ectospasm | Acedip: unless you've got an SSD and are really hurting for space, it's probably not a big deal. | 19:27 |
| gabbah | vigo: haven't installed anything special.... | 19:27 |
| Acedip | ectospasm, i doubt that, but even if there are, can i still remove it, are there any kde apps which come with default ubuntu? | 19:27 |
| fccf | paolo88: no ... use synaptic and completly remove ... then reinstall and re-set-up remote desktop | 19:27 |
| vigo | gabbah: Have a look at that man page, it may help. | 19:27 |
| mangoo | thanks to u all for helping | 19:28 |
| ectospasm | Acedip: none that I can think of | 19:28 |
| mangoo | i'll try it again tomorrow | 19:28 |

| om26er | plz tel me | 19:29 |
| cabrey | hwilde, OpenGL is hardware dependent, I doubt that you'll be able to get it to run over the network | 19:29 |
| hwilde | cabrey, xclock is hardware dependent too right? i can export that | 19:30 |

| bruce89 | chromium is in super early alpha, don't use it | 19:35 |
| muggi | ..i uninstalled all movie players via the synaptic package manager (i dint remove them the "complete removal" way) the first time, but i still get the compiled version installed each time, and can t play the mkv files as before | 19:35 |
| shane2peru | would the alternate install disk help solve the busybox problem? | 19:35 |
| om26er | ok plz tell me is there any messenger with yahoo audio chat | 19:35 |
| vigo | Zaher: I think it is Red Hat. or RPM., you may need the alien package , | 19:36 |

| shane2peru | om26er: you need gyachi | 19:36 |
| jrib | muggi: remove the mplayer you compiled then | 19:36 |
| sebsebseb | !info gyachi | 19:36 |
| cabrey | sil3nt|warri0r, what do you mean, it works great. what is your hardware? | 19:36 |

| muggi | jrib: remove, like delete it from the hd | 19:37 |
| Zaher | vigo: how can I get the alien file?? | 19:37 |
| muggi | thought i removed it with the package manager | 19:37 |
| cabrey | sil3nt|warri0r, that doesn't tell me anything, screencast only works well with decent hardware w/ lots of RAM, a decent GPU & CPU | 19:37 |
| Flai94 | no, sorry. I use Ubuntu on a Usb key but not the 64 bit version | 19:37 |
| jrib | muggi: no, you didn't install it using the package manager so the package manager doesn't know anything about it. | 19:38 |
| Flai94 | have you ever seen on the web | 19:38 |
| Flai94 | ? | 19:38 |
| vigo | Zaher: You can use Terminal or Synaptic. Synaptic has it listed. | 19:38 |

| cabrey | sil3nt|warri0r, ok you're right, it should work beautifully, try Istanbul | 19:40 |
| sil3nt|warri0r | k | 19:40 |
| sil3nt|warri0r | thx | 19:40 |
| bruce89 | muggi: you have to be very careful following random blog posts | 19:40 |
| teddy_ | i am getting carpal tunning syndrome from typing 'sudo bash' and root passwd 10,000 times a day. Is there some way I can just get root terminal when I click on "Terminal" ? TIA | 19:40 |
| muggi | jrib: and to me it seems like both the package manager and the apt-get mplayer in terminal gets the same version | 19:41 |
| sil3nt|warri0r | cabrey: is it only rec in orgg format ? | 19:41 |
| bruce89 | teddy_: make a shortcut for gksudo gnome-terminal | 19:41 |
| hwilde | teddy_, you could make an expect script :) | 19:41 |

| cabrey | sil3nt|warri0r, yes, but you can convert | 19:41 |
| paranomos | teddy most probably there is a way but for security reasons you should not | 19:41 |
| jrib | muggi: ok. You didn't compile mplayer afterall. You just used some random deb. Have you removed it? | 19:41 |
| sil3nt|warri0r | how :( | 19:41 |
| jcapinc | I have forgotten and I cannot find it on the ubuntu website. I have been using 8.10 when it came out, when will it no longer be supported? | 19:41 |

| Uuu | thalass: dpkg; however, be careful not to break your system; don't install important libs in such a way. | 20:22 |
| ramram | ohk will try it now, but if I land in the command line, then how to start a particular window manager, instead of just X with "startx" | 20:22 |
| slashtact | treyh222, "man dd" will give you all the info you need, it will something along the lines of dd if=/dev/sda of=/mount/point/of/file | 20:22 |
| ramram | the command to start gdm "gdm start" something? | 20:23 |
| unop | thalass, If a package is failing to install - you should understand why and not blindly force an install - you could break your system badly doing so | 20:23 |
| Uuu | thalass: after that, you'll probably have broken dependencies. | 20:23 |
| thalass | ah thanks. it's a version of OTTD that's not trunk, and is probably slightly older anyway | 20:23 |
| thalass | so it shouldn't kill the computer | 20:23 |

| Pirate_Hunter | weird using tasksel command to install lamp is slower then me doing it manually.. hmmm, why is that? | 20:38 |
| stevecam | lunie2ns-linux, have a look through the settings on the update manager, i dont feel comfortable explaining it all to you cas it was pretty easy to find, but go in to system, administration and software souces and you can get to the options there too | 20:38 |
| frostburn | what configuration file defines default networks settings? like /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethx | 20:39 |

| vcghjkgfdcx | Can anyone here tell me why my screen has a grey shadow to the right of everything? | 20:41 |
| lunie2ns-linux | im still pretty new to linux, is why i asked | 20:41 |
| stevecam | oh, if your new to linux, beta might not be the best option | 20:41 |
| vcghjkgfdcx | Beta is DEFINITELY NOT a good option for newbies. | 20:42 |
| lunie2ns-linux | Ok, i started with beta though, and its worked for me,..im just trying to see if i can find a new version that has my drivers from the getgo | 20:42 |
| slashtact | frostburn, are you configuring a wireless device? | 20:42 |

| jmworx_ | Any tips for resurrecting an X server? Everything seems to have frozen on my Jaunty box, except the mouse pointer. I can ssh to it fine though, so I'm hoping there's a way to fix the problem without having to kill the X server | 20:45 |
| lunie2ns-linux | oh maybe that will answer both questions | 20:45 |
| slayton | jmworx_, ctrl+alt+f3 | 20:46 |

| Phil_26 | Hi. I was thinking to install ubuntu 8.04, I mainly want stability. I was wondering if I will be able to update the software I use to their latest version using hardy? Firefox 3.5, the last version of brasero, songbird, etc? How it differ from jaunty software update regard. Thanks | 20:46 |
| slayton | jmworx_, see what is using your cpu cyles and kill that | 20:47 |
| jmworx_ | slayton: did that already, I had kded4 taking 100% and I killed it | 20:47 |
| jmworx_ | now my system's mostly idle | 20:47 |
| dakarn | phil_26: yep | 20:47 |
| Phil_26 | dakarn: what is the advantage of using jaunty if I can update all and every program I want with hardy then? :\ | 20:47 |
| magnetron | Phil_26: if you wan't stability, use the software that is shipped with hardy. if you want new software, use jaunty. you can't have them both | 20:48 |
| Phil_26 | ok | 20:48 |
| jmworx_ | In case it's of any help, it froze right when I was switching desktops and I have partially redrawn windows being displayed | 20:48 |
| magnetron | Phil_26: you can't update all and every program you want to any version in hardy | 20:48 |
| Phil_26 | that make sense | 20:48 |
| dakarn | phil_26: you get bug fixes, better support (hic) for certain platforms, ext4 filesystem, etc | 20:49 |
| olskolirc | can someone tell me how I can send vbox to the system tray please? | 20:49 |
| === jdo_ is now known as jdobrien | ||
| Phil_26 | that's because I have a GMA 3100 intel graphic chipset in fact, and I read that their is some issue with jaunty | 20:49 |
| Phil_26 | I'm now sure if I'll run into trouble | 20:50 |
| Phil_26 | I'm not sure | 20:50 |
| dakarn | uh jaunty uses the newest kernel which i find to provide better intel integrated graphics support | 20:50 |
| dakarn | but i'm using 2.6.30 | 20:50 |
| Phil_26 | ok | 20:50 |
| niblets | i broke my install, and reinstalled in my / partition, now i cant access my home partition, and i have pretty much narrowed it down to the encryption. any ideas? | 20:50 |

| dakarn | niblets: you saying you can't access / ? | 20:53 |
| whiter | hey, is there any way to get a built-in finger print reader working for the ubuntu login process? | 20:53 |
| slayton | niblets, whats the problem? | 20:53 |
| niblets | i had to reinstall in my /, now, i cant access /home, and i think its due to the encryption | 20:53 |
| slayton | did you encrypt your old /home dir? | 20:53 |
| niblets | i think so, but i didnt change /home, only reinstalled the os | 20:54 |
| slayton | are / and /home seperate partitions niblets | 20:54 |
| niblets | yes slayton | 20:54 |
| slayton | niblets, did you tell the installer to mount the /home partition at /home | 20:54 |
| niblets | yes | 20:54 |
| slayton | what happens when you cd to /home and type ls -al | 20:54 |
| niblets | which line do you want? | 20:55 |

| ChristopheDu80 | hi | 21:00 |
| Jonathan_L | TinFury: What files? What do you mean with corrupted? | 21:00 |
| niblets | i could always just wipe my whole drive and reinstall, but i want to avoid that if possible. | 21:00 |
| TinFury | I think they are mostly large files but I'm not sure. Someone give me advice on checking what's wrong | 21:00 |
| ChristopheDu80 | sorry about my bad english i need some help | 21:00 |
| ChristopheDu80 | i work about usb live bootable | 21:00 |
| TinFury | johathan... Well I copied a movie to it via FTP... then when I got home I tried to DL the file via FTP again.... xfer stops half way thru | 21:00 |
| Jonathan_L | I want to upgrade to Ubuntu 9.04. My / partition is on 8 GB, and I need another 300 MB free space for an upgrade. What's the best option for me? Unetbootin with the ISO to rezise the partition and then install from ISO/reboot and upgrade? Or are there better options? | 21:00 |
| TinFury | Reports IO error | 21:01 |
| HuegPneis | hi guys :) | 21:01 |
| cabrey | TinFury, just how old is this laptop? | 21:01 |
| TinFury | cabrey... the sony X505 is old... 2004 | 21:01 |
| jmworx_ | Hmm... can't be good: Xorg invoked oom-killer: gfp_mask=0x1201d2, order=0, oomkilladj=0 | 21:01 |
| Jonathan_L | TinFury: I guess it's the connection. Try something more "crash safe" than FTP | 21:01 |
| ChristopheDu80 | im looking for linux gnu OS bootbale from usb where i can add windows portable apps | 21:01 |
| bastidrazor | Jonathan_L, remove some packages that you can reinstall after the update | 21:01 |
| boss_mc | Jonathan_L: try apt-get clean, the apt-get autoclean | 21:01 |
| TinFury | XP works good on it | 21:01 |

| HuegPneis | whuts up niggas_ | 21:01 |

| TinFury | It's not just FTP.... I wanted to recompile kernel. and dl'd the source but cant unzip | 21:02 |
| ChristopheDu80 | ? | 21:02 |

| niblets | clean install on /, now i cant access /home. seperate partitions, pretty sure /home was encrypted | 21:04 |
| Jonathan_L | I don't wanna burn anything to a CD. Got to few of them and no income yet | 21:04 |
| slayton | if you use my name I see what you respond otherwise there is too much going in here for me to see what you respond | 21:04 |
| cabrey | TinFury, ok then it is probably the FTP server dropping it. how big is the file? | 21:05 |
| bastidrazor | Jonathan_L, use the ubuntu LiveCD | 21:05 |
| niblets | as root, a see text that says access your private data, but if i click it does nothing. as user, i see my username, if i click, i get the error vikume doesnt exist | 21:05 |
| TinFury | cab... it's not just that... I uploaded the move to ubuntu... that worked ok.. but I can't copy the avi from one place to another on ubuntu either | 21:05 |
| boss_mc | Jonathan_L: unetbootin a usb then | 21:05 |
| niblets | ok slayton, ill use your name | 21:05 |
| morespeed | i am making a theme on my own .... then i changed the panel.rc file ... in that i changed the xthicknees and ythickness to 50 ,300 after that screen appeared with big icons and ater change the theme though command line the i got back the screen to normal but the main panel was on top not able to move | 21:06 |
| TinFury | cabrey: the file was 650mb | 21:06 |
| aaronorosen1 | niblets: probably a chown to you or a chmod | 21:06 |
| Jonathan_L | boss_mc: I guess it works with the harddrive too | 21:06 |
| niblets | ive tried both aaron, no luck. i still cant access /home | 21:06 |
| cabrey | TinFury, try d/l'ing the ubuntu ISO & see if it corrupts/stops, how fast is your connection? I don't want to waste your time | 21:06 |
| noteventime | Does anyone know how to disable hardware acceleration in Adobe Flash player 10. I can't use the built in settings panel for some reason. | 21:07 |
| TinFury | cabrey: my connection is not that fast.... it would prob take about an hour. | 21:07 |
| noteventime | So I was hoping there was some clear text configuration somewhere | 21:07 |
| aaronorosen1 | niblets: ls -l / post the line that has /home in it | 21:07 |
| cabrey | TinFury, what ftp client are you using?/ | 21:07 |

| TinFury | ok so run ftp client on the computer I'm having problems with and DL a large file. | 21:09 |

| dlynes | In Debian, I configure the network in /etc/network/interfaces. Where do I do the same thing in Ubuntu Jaunty? | 21:10 |
| frostburn | TinFury, you might consider using rsync as well | 21:11 |
| dakarn | dlynes: nm-applet has a GUI | 21:11 |
| dlynes | dakarn: any text files, or console apps? | 21:11 |
| niblets | using my file manager, as usr, if i click /hom/niblets, i get an error saying volume does not exist. as root, i get text that says access your private data, but does nothing if i click on it, im just trying to access anything on /home........ | 21:12 |
| dakarn | dylnes: open network manager, unlock, and edit | 21:12 |
| TinFury | Ok the file is transferring | 21:12 |
| slayton | niblets, Goto /home and type ls -al then pastebin the result | 21:12 |
| slayton | niblets, I asked you to do this like 30 minutes ago | 21:12 |

| slayton | abdullah, you can't | 21:13 |
| boss_mc | !root | abdullah | 21:13 |
| ubottu | abdullah: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 21:13 |

| aaronorosen1 | niblets: or chown your /home to yourself right now root owns it... | 21:13 |
| TinFury | I had downloaded a series of large rar files 100MB from the web with ubuntu and when I tried to extract unrar failed on one of the files | 21:13 |
| dlynes | abdullah: Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get a terminal | 21:14 |
| TinFury | saying I/O error... that isn't even FTP at all | 21:14 |
| abdullah | login with root user | 21:14 |
| dakarn | aaronorosen1: it's fine that root owns /home but /home/niblets would be owned by him | 21:14 |
| bastidrazor | TinFury, that has nothing to do with your hardware or software.. you need to verify the files.. md5sum is your solution | 21:14 |
| cabrey | TinFury, it sounds like the HDD has bad sectors that the FS hasn't marked yet | 21:15 |

| slayton | they look fine, niblets aaronorosen1 | 21:17 |
| bastidrazor | TinFury, and yes with i/o error you do need to do a FS check on your drives | 21:17 |

| cabrey | !fsck | TinFury | 21:17 |
| ubottu | TinFury: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 21:17 |

| petafile | So I'd like to be able to stream from my music collection over a network. What's the easiest way to set something like that up? | 21:17 |
| dlynes | dakarn: So what you're telling me is there's no way to get ubuntu to use /etc/network/interfaces? | 21:17 |
| TinFury | Yes that is what I want... forced check on reboot | 21:17 |

| coz_ | guys I am still having issues with monitor insisting to sleep even though thing s are overridden in xorg I did place this in with no effect http://pastebin.com/m7600061a | 21:18 |
| prefrontal | why I try to `sudo apt-get install wink' it tells me that wink is not available.. http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/wink | 21:18 |
| dlynes | dakarn: Or to use the command line, instead of forcing me to use the gui for everything? | 21:18 |
| ubuntutester | how do i login with the root user | 21:18 |
| TinFury | let me try that and come back... I just tested the file I transfered too..... this transfer was fine... | 21:18 |
| aaronorosen1 | slayton: he can cd to his home i had him cd ~ fine a sec ago | 21:18 |
| cabrey | !sudo | 21:18 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 21:18 |

| slayton | hmmm... weird | 21:18 |
| aaronorosen1 | niblets: i would do a chmod 777 ~/* see if that fixes the problem that your having. | 21:18 |
| dakarn | dlynes: you can manually set everything with /etc/network/interfaces | 21:18 |
| treyh222 | Pirate_Hunter, ignore it | 21:18 |
| slayton | Pirate_Hunter, google | 21:18 |
| dlynes | dakarn: but Jaunty didn't read it on boot up | 21:18 |
| ubuntutester | root | 21:18 |
| aaronorosen1 | slayton: I think he is trying to access a file in his ~ that he doesn't gave read privlidles. | 21:18 |
| treyh222 | Pirate_Hunter, wants you to basically put the full domain name in the httpd.conf | 21:19 |
| dlynes | dakarn: I'm tried to set network aliases.... i.e. eth0:0, eth0:1, eth0:2, eth0:3, ... | 21:19 |
| slayton | niblets, try running chown niblets /home/niblets -rf | 21:19 |
| TinFury | bastidrazor: by FS check you mean fsck right? | 21:19 |
| Pirate_Hunter | treyh222, oh ok no problem than i will ignore it its only for production purpose | 21:19 |
| aaronorosen1 | slayton: he already owns that.. | 21:19 |

| boss_mc | Curly_Q: I expected there to be more there, mostly support, testing and ease of use | 21:22 |
| niblets | slayton, no worries | 21:22 |
| boss_mc | hansolo: would you expect a server to have a GUI? | 21:22 |
| Curly_Q | Well, the thing I want to know is that Ubuntu is for free but the nice packages are for sale. Where is the logic there? | 21:22 |

| ubottu | Support: #xubuntu | Developer Discussion: #xubuntu-devel | Offtopic chatter: #xubuntu-offtopic | 21:24 |
| fccf | menboy: xubuntu is slimmer, can run on less... that does not make it better | 21:24 |
| mach3 | When you're attempting to mount a .img, and it asks for a specified filesystem, what do you do to the mount command to...remedy that error? | 21:24 |
| dakarn | dlynes: can you ifdown eth1 then ifup eth1 | 21:25 |
| menboy | ok :p | 21:25 |
| SiDi | fccf: its better cause it has a mouse in its logo ! | 21:25 |
| boss_mc | menboy: depends what you want, for old machines xubuntu is good, for modern ones GNOME looks nice and is user friendly, but it's your call, there's also kubuntu (kde) | 21:25 |
| menboy | then i will keep ubuntu :) | 21:25 |
| * SiDi uses Xubuntu on a machine with 4GB. | 21:25 | |
| ltcabral_ | how do i remove a user from a group by terminal? | 21:25 |
| niblets | there is also crunchbang........ ubuntu based, running openbox, its very lean | 21:25 |
| fccf | SiDi: and that mouse is stuck on a wheel going round and round | 21:25 |
| dakarn | crunchbang is awesome ;) | 21:26 |
| mezquitale | menboy, it all depends on what you mean by "better". If you have a slow machine xubuntu will be faster, yes, but you will not have all the functionalities and ease of use as say ubuntu or kubuntu | 21:26 |
| bastidrazor | mach3, from my understanding you can't mount an .IMG since that is a mac format. you need to convert it to iso. you can do this with poweriso | 21:26 |
| menboy | somebody knows nimblex? | 21:26 |
| hansolo | niblets - i can vouch for crunch bang very nice | 21:26 |
| SiDi | fccf: it can escape from the wheel and go in the clouds ! flying mouse | 21:26 |
| niblets | its the shizzle | 21:26 |
| bastidrazor | ltcabral, you could edit /etc/groups | 21:26 |
| moejoe | for crunchbang i have heard it is not stable, how long have you had uptime with it? | 21:26 |
| === pyrak-meatballsu is now known as pyrak-thatwasyum | ||
| dlynes | dakarn: It's working, as long as I don't put eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces | 21:26 |
| dakarn | there isn't an official 9.04 for crunchbang so install 8.10 and the 2.6.30 kernel | 21:26 |
| mach3 | bastidrazor...lame. Uh...Well, I ddrescued my disk in .img, can I ddrescue it in .iso? | 21:26 |
| ltcabral_ | bastidrazor: just that will do? | 21:26 |
| Curly_Q | fccf, I suppose you could squeeze UBUNTU on a floppy disk too. :) | 21:26 |
| dlynes | dakarn: as soon as I put eth0's definition in there, and then reboot, it all goes to hell in a handbasket | 21:26 |
| niblets | moejoe, ive been using it for weeks, no problems, other than ones i have created | 21:26 |
| hansolo | Curly_Q - no floppys for ubuntu | 21:27 |
| fccf | Curly_Q: prolly not ... but it does fit on a CD quite nicely | 21:27 |
| niblets | they are quite friendly over on the forums too, so there is support | 21:27 |
| bastidrazor | ltcabral, yes, they'll need to relog before it takes effect | 21:27 |
| bastidrazor | mach3, i don't know | 21:27 |
| eitreach | Is there any easy way to batch convert avis into ipod-format? | 21:27 |
| Curly_Q | There is a nice floppy called: "PICO BSD" on a floppy which is nice. | 21:27 |
| mezquitale | which bittorrent client does anyone recommend? I am using bittornado and it's a bit slow, not too many people logged in sharing files. | 21:27 |
| dlynes | dakarn: /etc/network/interfaces doesn't get initialized during bootup, and I'm guessing that's because whenever interfaces gets loaded, it's before network-manager gets run, and so eth0 doesn't exist yet, and consequently I cannot assign virtual interfaces to it | 21:27 |
| hansolo | Curly_Q - yes true remember that floppys have 1.4'ish mb of space | 21:27 |
| moejoe | niblets: what are you running it on? i cap CPU like crazy on this little acer. | 21:27 |

| SiDi | B0BBY: hello. go to java.com, they'll tell you | 21:28 |
| ThorsonB_ | hansolo you a linux pro? | 21:28 |
| dakarn | dlynes: one sec | 21:28 |
| B0BBY | of course, java -version says, 1.6.0.0. IcedTea6 1.3.1 | 21:28 |
| beware | i get "failed to fetch", error 404, for some packages, in ubuntu's update manager | 21:28 |
| B0BBY | but not sure if the complete jre is installed. I can't type in jre.. | 21:28 |
| hansolo | ThorsonB_ - sorta | 21:28 |
| lunie2ns-linux | Im still not getting how to use fstab to make it automatically mount my drive on boot. | 21:29 |
| B0BBY | SiDi: java.com site will detect....? | 21:29 |
| boss_mc | B0BBY: java -version gives the jre, javac -version fives the jdk | 21:29 |
| niblets | moejoe, see my private message | 21:29 |
| mezquitale | B0BBY, the easiest way is to go to "add/remove" search for "java" and it'll give you all the java components that are currently installed or that you can install | 21:29 |
| moejoe | Sorry new to IRC :S | 21:29 |
| hansolo | ThorsonB_ - but most of us are to fire away | 21:29 |
| Pirate_Hunter | for a development server do i really need to protect apache directories if so which ones? | 21:29 |
| SiDi | B0BBY: yes, they have a page for that | 21:29 |
| hansolo | ThorsonB_ - sorry thats so not to | 21:29 |
| cabrey | B0BBY, icedtea is the open source java plugin. install sun-java6-jre & sun-java6-plugin | 21:29 |
| Curly_Q | Hansolo, I am so glad that now-a-days, one can boot from a USB device such as a FLASH device. That makes floppies outmoded in most modern cases. | 21:30 |
| B0BBY | mezquitale: thanks. :) | 21:30 |
| B0BBY | SiDi: thanks. :) | 21:30 |

| eitreach | Is there any easy way to batch convert avis into ipod-format? | 21:31 |
| Curly_Q | Not only that hansolo, I purchased a USB Floppy Drive for $3.00 at the GoodWill store. That comes in handy for some of the installations needed. | 21:31 |
| B0BBY | cabrey: I only get it if I have to and so keep forgetting package name. | 21:31 |
| B0BBY | cabrey: normally keep my machines free of java. But some apps require it. so I'll install. :) | 21:31 |
| mezquitale | Curly_Q, what's a "floppie"??? | 21:32 |

| lunie2ns-linux | So can anyone help me with fstab the link is just confusing me | 21:35 |
| Curly_Q | In other words, one must put the drivers on a CD disk and install it to use the USB FLASH drive. | 21:36 |
| beware | apt-get update fixed the problem (packages not fetching), i think this is ugly and shouldn't happen | 21:36 |
| francisr | Is there a max size for the / partition (ext3) other than what the installer allows? (apparently >6TB) | 21:36 |

| max_ | How could I go about installing something from an old repository? | 21:38 |
| suweid | hansolo, I respectfully disagree. When I get a new home directory, I expect it to be clean. Much like getting a new appartment. If it's not, I take matters into my own hands. | 21:38 |
| wildc4rd | evening all | 21:38 |
| Repentinus | Is there some sort of Eclipse repository with the latest version for Ubuntu? | 21:39 |
| hansolo | suweid - yes true...hmm it might be the folders might be somewhere on the install cd... | 21:39 |
| rutter | hey, can anyone tell me where the sessions conf file is located? - I can find it anywhere. | 21:39 |
| Curly_Q | Before anyone makes any changes on any computer, it is always best to make copies and backups first before doing something that compromises an operation. | 21:39 |
| Repentinus | Anyway, what's the best IDE for PHP on Ubuntu? (Would use Zend Studio 5 on Windows.) | 21:39 |

| bastidrazor | lunie2ns-linux, which partition do you want to add to fstab? | 21:41 |
| st3vie | Repentinus, Zend Studio 5 is also the best on Linux (in my opinion) | 21:41 |
| hansolo | rutter - i was recommending to backup to many locations | 21:41 |
| Repentinus | Ok. What about C, C++ and Java? Found my choice for Python, IDLE as on Windows. | 21:41 |
| hansolo | rutter - as was Curly_Q | 21:42 |
| lunie2ns-linux | bastidrazor: The NTFS 67 GB partition..and i want it to mount to /media/disk like it does right now when i manually do it if possible | 21:42 |
| st3vie | Repentinus, there is PDT, Netbeans 6.7 (has PHP support, not quite perfect, but getting better) | 21:42 |
| rutter | hansolo: backup what? I just want to know where the sessions conf file is | 21:42 |
| hansolo | rutter - the sessions conf file | 21:42 |
| Repentinus | Eclipse is big no for me. I do not want software to tell me that I need to make a project... | 21:42 |
| hansolo | rutter - befor you change it | 21:42 |
| st3vie | Repentinus, check out Netbeans 6.7 from the website? Or maybe Eclipse, with extra plugins. So you can use all the languages in one IDE? | 21:43 |
| stickboy | amazon mp3 has ubuntu version but it's 8.10 and 32bit only. how would i get it for 64bit? | 21:43 |
| hansolo | rutter - after you find out where it is | 21:43 |
| lunie2ns-linux | bastidrazor: do I need to unmount the drive before i do this?? | 21:43 |
| treyh222 | when using the ubuntu 9.04 cd, if i boot to the live cd, what does it detect the local drive as? trying to do dd to /dev/sda but not working? | 21:43 |
| n0gear | can i edit screen resolutions manually from some file? | 21:43 |
| Repentinus | I'll check out Netbeans. | 21:43 |
| rutter | hansolo: ok, fine good advice, but where is it? | 21:43 |
| st3vie | Repentinus, then ZS5.5 is certainly the best of real IDE | 21:43 |
| Sinatra | anybody use their webcam on ubuntu? | 21:43 |

| meoblast001 | hansolo: i'll just reinstall the sounds package.... either that or this sound card isn't very good at all | 21:58 |
| jrib | dlynes: why would it matter what level it starts at? | 21:58 |
| dlynes | ActionParsnip: I'm guessing it's somewhere between run level 4 and level 5 | 21:58 |
| |Ryan | Mine didn't find it, still. | 21:58 |
| hansolo | meoblast001 - ok sounds (lol) good :) | 21:58 |
| zefyr | thats the one think about linux..sound always seems to be a bitch | 21:58 |

| ubottu | max: aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT.

| FPEDRO | hey people! i need some lights here. I have only ubuntu installed on this machine and i need to install windows back. Will it dele my grub? if so can i have it back? how? Thanks | 22:26 |

| juan-pablo | thanks forever | 22:28 |
| frostburn | endo420, gparted | 22:28 |
| zefyr | FPEDRO: at grub prompt type root (hdx) where x is the HD.. | 22:29 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - its eather under system administraton(or prefecnses) restrecd drivers.but it shold be in the notifacation area "restrected drivers are in use blah blah blah" | 22:29 |
| JayX | juan-pablo welll let me know if it works.. im a newbie in here :P | 22:29 |
| endo420 | gparted? alright cool | 22:29 |
| zefyr | FPEDRO: then type find /boot/grub/stage1 | 22:29 |
| endo420 | and since i have vista, i can resize the partitions there rather then having to do it in unbuntu | 22:29 |
| endo420 | is that correct? | 22:29 |
| juan-pablo | me too thats why i aprreciate so much your help | 22:29 |
| hansolo | !restricted drivers | 22:29 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:29 |
| endo420 | is there anybody i can personally chat with to get some help? | 22:30 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: the only one is lists for restricted is my modem | 22:30 |
| zefyr | FPEDRO: wait.. got that wrong.. ill get you a link | 22:30 |

| jaime1 | i have the ubuntu partition as /dev/sda2 filesystem ext3. the windows partition is /dev/sda3 filesystem ntfs how exactly do i do it? | 22:30 |
| frostburn | !ask | endo420 | 22:30 |
| ubottu | endo420: 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. :-) | 22:30 |
| JayX | juan-pablo did it work ? | 22:30 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - but you said you have it working now ...right, if so that wold be why | 22:30 |
| lunie2ns-linux | yes its working with NDiswrapper... | 22:30 |
| juan-pablo | no it dont work | 22:30 |
| slak_ | What do I need to install to make my pcmcia card hotpluggable? I installed the minimal version. If I boot the machine with my wireless card inserted, wireless works. If I boot it w/o the card then plug it in the light doesn't even come on. | 22:31 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: but would it work BETTER with a restricted driver? | 22:31 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - possibly | 22:31 |
| jaime1 | i have the ubuntu partition as /dev/sda2 filesystem ext3. the windows partition is /dev/sda3 filesystem ntfs how exactly do i do it to change the windows partition into only ubuntu? | 22:31 |
| JayX | juan-pablo ah well then i suck lol best ask the room | 22:31 |
| juan-pablo | looks like the version of ubutu that i download its not good | 22:31 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - well most likly, what speeds do you get now? | 22:31 |
| juan-pablo | thanks anyway | 22:31 |
| qbrix | How can I get XDMCP to run on Ubuntu Server? | 22:31 |
| endo420 | if i resize the partitions in vista do i have to resize them when i install ubuntu? | 22:31 |
| juan-pablo | you can see does pages | 22:32 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: ok maybe i can try with a live cd so i dont have to reload and find it doesnt work | 22:32 |
| JayX | juan-pablo did you download the new one 9.04 ? ? | 22:32 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: i am getting like 400-500 kbs | 22:32 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - ok sounds good | 22:32 |
| jaime1 | the only options i have to format the partition from windows is to either delete or format, what would be better in order to get all of that memory and put it in ubuntu? | 22:32 |
| JayX | endo428 i dont think so | 22:32 |
| juan-pablo | yes but looks like the mirror i do its not good | 22:32 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - thats ok could be better but still good | 22:32 |
| lunie2ns-linux | yah | 22:32 |
| JayX | juan-pablo did you download the new one 9.04 ? ? | 22:32 |
| JayX | visit the firefox adon page and search for flash players | 22:33 |
| juan-pablo | yes jayx but looks like the mirror i do its not good | 22:33 |
| endo420 | how much space should i allocate for ubuntu | 22:33 |
| jaime1 | should i delete the windows partition then add it to the ubuntu, or is there a way to format it? | 22:33 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: well im more wondering in case if i did do a whole system reload, if it would work right from the disk or if i would have to figure out ndiswrapper again | 22:33 |
| JayX | visit the firefox adon page and search for flash players juan-pablo | 22:33 |
| juan-pablo | whichi one is the new | 22:33 |
| jaime1 | :) | 22:33 |
| juan-pablo | ok | 22:33 |
| ubuntu | [ Ubuntu 9.04 liveUSB ] How can I get the other version of xchat (the non-basic one...) | 22:33 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - it should run from the disk but if you have time (and want to be carful) try from the live cd first | 22:34 |
| ubuntu | (where you see the users on the right, I think it's not a part of Gnome) | 22:34 |
| endo420 | how much space should i allocate to ubuntu | 22:34 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: right, that's what i was thinkin | 22:34 |
| ubuntu | endo420: (from) where are you installing it to | 22:34 |
| hansolo | endo420 - 5 to 8 gb | 22:34 |
| jaime1 | anyone know how i can delete the windows partition in my system so i can use the memory for ubuntu? i'm using Gparted | 22:34 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: just delete it | 22:35 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - ya heres a review for it working http://www.ubuntuhcl.org/browse/product+broadcom-4318-air-force-one-54g?id=515 | 22:35 |
| stormchas2000 | endo420 it depends on what you want to do with ubuntu | 22:35 |
| ubuntu | jaimel: FORMAT THE BIATCH | 22:35 |
| adac | how can I set the path to python2.5? | 22:35 |
| jaime1 | ok but it is a Boot file, it won't do anything to it? | 22:35 |
| ubuntu | (and then allocate the space to ubuntu) | 22:35 |
| joey_ | I have a questions about Wolvenstein Enemy territory. I'm using Ubuntu 9.04, with intel graphics. When I run the game, the screen does nothing but flicker | 22:35 |
| joey_ | anybody know how to fix this? | 22:35 |
| cmannn | anyone here can tell me how to get my network manegericon back | 22:35 |
| joey_ | I tend to have a lot of problems like this when I run fules that aren't from .debs, when I install them from a .run file | 22:36 |
| jaime1 | format it to what ext3, linux-swap, fat 16, etc? | 22:36 |
| stormchas2000 | joey does it require flash player | 22:36 |
| joey_ | I doubt it, it's an openGL game based Quake, and even if it did, I have flash installed | 22:36 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: ok thanks,,..it says ' Once you install the firmware, the wireless card works well, with a fast connect rate.' what firmware is it speaking of, do you know? | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: a boot file what? | 22:37 |
| jaime1 | the ubuntu filesystem is ext 3 while the windows filesystem is NTFS | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: yes | 22:37 |
| jaime1 | well the windows partition has a flag and it says BOOT, which i'm not sure what it means | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: or not even, if you do Ext4 or whatever instead of Ext3 | 22:37 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: is your bootloader Grub now? | 22:37 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - the risrected driver aka firmware, dont worry its not saying you have to flash your card | 22:37 |
| lunie2ns-linux | ok | 22:37 |
| DFarmer | Is it possible to upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty from the Jaunty install disc? | 22:38 |
| jaime1 | umm. i think so. is there a way to be sure? | 22:38 |
| stormchas2000 | joey ok I had a similar problem and found that i had 2 different flash players trying to work at the same time and they conflicted each other making the screen flicker | 22:38 |
| ubuntu | joey: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=868991 ? | 22:38 |
| sebsebseb | DFarmer: from the desktop CD no, from the alternate CD yes | 22:38 |
| joey_ | stormchas: (sorry, I forgot to use your name) I doubt it, it's an openGL game based Quake, and even if it did, I have flash installed | 22:38 |
| lunie2ns-linux | hansolo: ok ill try the live disk and see if it works. thanks | 22:38 |
| hansolo | lunie2ns-linux - no prob :) | 22:38 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: did you put Ubuntu on after Windows? | 22:38 |
| DFarmer | sebsebseb: Is it possible to request a free alternate CD? | 22:38 |
| tinfury | Ok I'm back. I did the FSCK thing I think it worked | 22:38 |
| sebsebseb | DFarmer: maybe | 22:38 |
| jaime1 | sebsebseb: yes i did | 22:39 |
| tinfury | But there was no report after the program ran | 22:39 |
| DFarmer | sebsebseb: Thanks :) | 22:39 |
| joey_ | stormchas: thanks! I'll see, I think I might have 2 installed, | 22:39 |
| joey_ | ubunut: I'll check the link, thanks! | 22:39 |
| jaime1 | i'm worried if i delete or format the windows partition it might do away with my bootloader | 22:39 |
| Dream-Ubu | any cluue where to find HDA intel audio drivers?:/ | 22:39 |
| genii-around | !intelhda | 22:39 |
| ubottu | For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto | 22:39 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: ok then Grub is probably the default | 22:40 |
| jaime1 | i'm worried if i delete or format the windows partition it might do away with my bootloader | 22:40 |
| JayX | juan-pablo the newst is 9.04 (Jaunty or something like that is the code name ) | 22:40 |
| juan-pablo | which are the best mirror to dowload ubuntu | 22:40 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: I don't think so, because it's probably using Grub | 22:40 |
| tinfury | I was trying to reinstall my kernel... but linux-source=2.6.28.tar.bz2 got corrupted and I deleted it how can I get it back? | 22:40 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: here's a easy way to check | 22:40 |
| juan-pablo | thanks jay | 22:40 |
| tinfury | *recompile my kernel | 22:40 |
| Dream-Ubu | thanks | 22:40 |
| jaime1 | alright so then i just delete or format it? what would you reccomend? | 22:40 |
| JayX | juan-pablo it doesnt matter, just download it from the one nearest to you=r country | 22:40 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: your in the install or Live CD now? | 22:40 |
| jaime1 | sebsebseb: install | 22:41 |
| jaime1 | i've had it for a while but i finally got tired of windows and wanna do away with it completely | 22:41 |
| cmannn | how do install the network mager agin | 22:42 |
| jaime1 | i already have ubuntu installed and also windows i just wanna delete or format the windows partition so that it goes into ubuntu memory | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: yeah yeah | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: ,but you want to be sure it's using Grub first | 22:42 |
| jaime1 | ok | 22:42 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: open the terminal then gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 22:42 |
| juan-pablo | it look like my coutnrys version its bad | 22:43 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: ## or # is comments. so things not being used or just text in the file. and at the bottom should be the two OS's, Ubuntu and Windows | 22:43 |
| JayX | whats "Metacity" | 22:43 |
| juan-pablo | cause once i put one from usa n it just blow my mind | 22:43 |

| jaime1 | sebsebseb: yes at the bottom of the grub there is ubuntu and windows | 22:44 |
| jrib | GHROO: #ubuntu-offtopic please | 22:44 |
| GHROO | last time i read about it, there was very little certainty | 22:44 |
| tinfury | I was trying to recompile my kernel... but linux-source=2.6.28.tar.bz2 got corrupted and I deleted it how can I get it back? | 22:44 |
| lich0r | if I want to give execute privileges to user carol to all subdirectories and files within trunk, that would be 'chmod -u(carol) trunk' ? | 22:44 |
| jaime1 | sebsebseb: so that means that i'm using brub | 22:45 |
| Dream-Ubu | sometimes hard ware is annoying, when you dont like wires you tend to forget to PLUG IT IN +__+' | 22:45 |

| blurpeace | Hi all.. I've just installed Ubuntu for the first time (so I'm new to Linux - for the most part), and I decided to install the kubuntu-desktop package as well (to test KDE). I've decided that I like the default GNOME but I want to remove the kubuntu packages (all at once, not one by one). | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: backup your Windows data, if you got anything, and haven't already done so, and delete Windows | 22:45 |
| blurpeace | Any possible way to do that? | 22:45 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: what is your current Linux partition size set up? and such | 22:46 |
| mrwes | o/ | 22:46 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: you said you wanted to make more space for Ubuntu? | 22:46 |
| JayX | blurpeace u came to the right place, but seems like all the advanced users are out today! im a newbie my self | 22:46 |

| lich0r | jrib, while I am sure you are trying to be helpful, if that would of helped me I wouldn't be asking | 22:47 |
| jaime1 | sebsebseb: yes my desktop has only a little bit of memory but i use my laptop more. my desktop is like so, 18.63 GB to Ubuntu, 54.98GB to Windows, 956.97 MiB to linux-swap, and 7.84 MiB unallocated | 22:47 |
| jrib | lich0r: I'm sure you've read it | 22:47 |
| blurpeace | Wow, you're awesome. :) | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: cool so your going Ubuntu only on the lap top? :d | 22:48 |
| jaime1 | sebsebseb: so should i delete the windows partition or format it? | 22:48 |
| jaime1 | no, ubuntu only on the desktop which is the one i'm on. | 22:48 |
| jaime1 | on the laptop i dual boot ubuntu and windows 7 | 22:48 |
| rantikrist | ok i still cant find away to set the network password (WPA) and the network i want to connect to using a command from the command line | 22:48 |
| lich0r | I understand numerical permissions, I am just having a more difficult time understanding how to give a specific user (not myself) access. If it is in there, then it went right over my head ;) | 22:48 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: which file system are your using Ext3 I assume, since you did a default install? | 22:48 |
| jrib | lich0r: your question indicates you don't really understand what chmod does | 22:48 |

| n00dle | Has anyone figured out how to make PPTP perform properly between U8.10 and windows server? | 22:49 |
| jaime1 | sebsebseb: ext3 is linux, while the windows is NTFS | 22:49 |
| SiDi | lich0r: as far as i know, you can only give permissions for : owner | group | others. So a solution if you dont wanna change the owner is to use a group with only carol inside it | 22:49 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: once you have deleted the Windows partition, you need to boot up the Live CD and resize Ubuntu there, to use the space you gained | 22:49 |
| blurpeace | ubottu, thanks for the assistance.. worked like a charm. | 22:49 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 22:49 |
| jrib | lich0r: you don't give permissions to a user. You give permissions to the *owner* of a file or the *group* of a file or *others* | 22:49 |
| adac | How can I change the path from python2.6 to python2.5? | 22:49 |

| adac | jrib, Is it not possible to do that on bashrc? | 22:50 |
| lich0r | and technically I am working on a FreeBSD VM right now | 22:50 |

| jrib | !who | lich0r | 22:51 |
| DFarmer | ubun00b_: Thanks :) | 22:51 |
| ubottu | lich0r: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 22:51 |
| Niphlod | lich0r : as far as I know there is chmod, but the thing you want to do is accomplished by chown... | 22:51 |
| jrib | adac: no. I can tell you that you don't want to do it since it would break things. If you need a script to use 2.5 that put that in the shebang explicitly | 22:51 |
| ubun00b_ | DFarmer: Do glance at the documentation though, it's a pretty powerful tool | 22:51 |
| sebsebseb | jaime1: you can use the 8.04 CD | 22:51 |
| DFarmer | ubun00b_: I will. Thanks :D | 22:52 |
| SiDi | lich0r: the user is only for the owner of the file. If you want special rights for carol but dont want her to own the files, make her have a group for her own, and set the owning group of the files to this group | 22:52 |
| ubun00b_ | DFarmer: no prob :) | 22:52 |
| SiDi | lich0r: then, for setting execute bit for the group, its chmod g+x -R foldername | 22:52 |
| SiDi | lich0r: though i dont understand why you'd want to do such a thing... | 22:52 |
| lich0r | sorry jrib and sidi, I will take a look at the chown | 22:52 |

| lich0r | jrib: I am trying to set up a dev webserver using a custom CMS, and was getting a 403. I am fairly sure that it was because I didn't have a user defined in my httpd file and the files were not assigned proper permissions for apache to access them.

I am following a tutorial located at www.geek.com/articles/chips/feature-linux-media-server-using-ubuntu-810-2009065/ this tutorial instructs you at the end to run the command "/etc/init.d/mediatomb restart" however when I do this it simply says "Fail." Can someone help me better diagnose the problem? | 22:57 |

| j2daosh | actually that wont work. i mean it would, but i i need to append to the zip file | 23:08 |
| j2daosh | yeah i need to compress it too :P | 23:08 |
| jrib | j2daosh: man page should say what switch to use to append | 23:09 |

| orfeuet | hi all | 23:10 |
| SiDi | wbc: Xubuntu is the lightweight Ubuntu distro :) | 23:10 |
| jrib | j2daosh: you probably don't want c. And you can't have it compressed if you are appending iirc | 23:10 |
| j2daosh | .... | 23:10 |
| wbc | SiDi: But it is missing a whole lot | 23:10 |
| guntbert | j2daosh: f must be the last switch, immediately before the filename | 23:11 |
| jrib | j2daosh: you can compress with gzip at the end of course | 23:11 |
| SiDi | wbc: its not using GNOME. It's not *missing* things, it's different ;) | 23:11 |
| j2daosh | yeah i suppose i will try that | 23:11 |
| Niphlod | j2daosh: you'll have to decompress it to tmp, add to tar and zip again, i think. | 23:11 |

| gerber | for konqueror how i fix youtube ? | 23:24 |
| KyleK | you're not saying bit torrent could explode a lan card are you? | 23:25 |
| lws | wbc: When I removed the card though, I removed a non-functioning 802.11N card at the same time. Now everything is borked up. My system boots, but my other ethernet card doesn't show up, and my other 802.11g card doesn't work now -- It DID boot up multiple times from the Ubuntu Live CD last night, but not it refuses to do that this morning. | 23:25 |
| KyleK | only if it was made out of wet noodles :-/ | 23:25 |
| swivels | MTecknology: yes that looks right for 1 AM nightly | 23:25 |
| lws | wbc: interestingly, the other ethernet card worked under the liver CD last night -- and also while the live CD won't boot, my install boots but doesn't load up the drivers for the wireless or ethernet. | 23:25 |
| dtchen | prefrontal: if you're intending to probe /dev/snd/pcmC1D0c, that's the _wrong_ way | 23:26 |
| prefrontal | dtchen, this is to pass to ffmpeg. | 23:26 |
| lws | wbc: No lan -- I have a wireless card in master mode in the system. (or did) | 23:26 |
| wbc | lws: If the card do not show up, it could happen that the card does not work anymore | 23:26 |

| wbc | lws: Oh, now I see | 23:27 |
| prefrontal | dtchen, it is hw:1. the guide i have for ffmpeg uses /dev/dsp but i'm not sure what that is. are you sure ffmpeg will know what hw:1 is? | 23:27 |
| lws | wbc: I've never seen anything like this before -- I think a lot of my hardware got borked because of my cat :/ I didn't realize the power cord had a short in it. | 23:27 |
| dtchen | prefrontal: /dev/dsp is oss syntax. alsa syntax is quite different. | 23:27 |
| prefrontal | dtchen, `man ffmpeg' says `FFmpeg can grab video and audio from devices given that you specify the input format and device.' | 23:28 |
| wbc | lws: I'm not sure, cause I have neither been touched by anything like that. Sorry :( | 23:28 |
| prefrontal | i'll try, thank you:) | 23:28 |
| swivels | MTeknology: the cron time looks right, did you set it up with crontab -e? | 23:28 |
| lws | wbc: Yeah it's utterly bizarre. I think my functioning wireless card is broken now.... When I load "ath_pci" the system crashes, I think that's why the live CD won't load. | 23:28 |
| wbc | lws: Does the card work properly in Live Mode? | 23:28 |
| lws | wbc: The ethernet card did, I never got a chance to try the wireless, and now LIve Mode won't start. It hangs on "Loading Hardware..." | 23:29 |

| Guest93895 | do you know what the cammand is for virtuelbox sun | 23:32 |
| lws | wbc: Yo, it seems that the other ethernet card works. The driver isn't loading automatically for some reason. Maybe I screwed up avahi or something. | 23:32 |
| lws | However, loading ath_pci halts the system... :( | 23:33 |

| TML | Why doesn't Ctrl-Alt-Backspace kill X anymore? I was expecting to find /etc/X11/xorg.conf with "DontZap" in it, but my machine doesn't even HAVE an /etc/X11/xorg.conf. | 23:33 |
| Guest93895 | what is the cammand for virtuelbox | 23:34 |
| wallshot | bigboss__: that's sorta a question for #virtualbox probably | 23:34 |
| Niphlod | bigboss__ : ftp ? samba ? NFS ? | 23:34 |
| Pici | !dontzap | TML | 23:34 |
| ubottu | TML: 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 ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 23:34 |
| wallshot | Guest93895: "VirtualBox" | 23:34 |

| TML | Never even heard of the dontzap package. :) | 23:34 |
| TML | You'd have to have 3 hands to do Alt+SysRq+K :) | 23:35 |
| wbc | lws: Wait, I'm a bit confused now. The LAN card is broken, or is it the wi-fi? | 23:35 |
| schweppp | My laptop is freezing out of the blue. Doesnt even respond to the sysrq keys. But, I can ssh to it - but what do i then restart?? | 23:35 |
| lws | wbc: Do you know anything about wireless on linux? I wasted like $100 on a Dlink ExtremeN card thinking ath9k supported master mode (and it does, but it doesn't work right) | 23:35 |
| sebsebseb | wallshot: it's #vbox | 23:35 |
| lws | wbc: I just tested the LAN card, For some reason the driver (8139too) wasn't loading automatically) | 23:35 |
| TML | schweppp: Try killing X and see if it's responding. Perhaps X and a terminal session are on the same VT. | 23:35 |
| wbc | lws: Yep, I do know wireless. Been using aircrack-ng a lot | 23:36 |
| lws | wbc: Any suggestions for a N card that supports master mode? | 23:36 |
| wbc | Will USB do? | 23:36 |

| hades_pt | how can i expand my system size to a frerr patition | 23:37 |
| lws | wbc: ... Preferably not. I have a D-Link ExtremeN (PCI) but it halts about every 5 minutes when in Master mode (for some unknown reason, I haven't been able to get an answer out of the ath9k people) | 23:37 |
| TML | schweppp: /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 23:37 |
