wildboy211 | i can download the drivers onto a flash drive... | 00:00 |
dunks | hoolz /etc/shadow | 00:00 |
droptothetop | hoolz, did you actually enable the root account and set a password? | 00:00 |
mdg | Devon_C: now right click on gnomad and you should get an option to install | 00:00 |
Apollo2366 | cbhl, It's not really a matter of practicality, more of a learning experience if you will. Anyway, I changed /etc/environment to include /home/eric/Software/flock but when I attempt to run flock-browser bash says "/usr/bin/flock-browser no such file or directory" | 00:00 |
hero1900 | hi guys have problem in Empathy 2.27.2 i can login in msn by it but all people appear offline but in reality some of them are online an one know what is the problem | 00:00 |
hoolz | droptothetop i think so | 00:00 |
hoolz | how do i find out? | 00:00 |
mdg | Devon_C: then click "apply" | 00:00 |
Devon_C | mdg: it's installed | 00:01 |
hoolz | wait i think im just a "user" account | 00:01 |
Devon_C | mdg: it gives me an option to uninstall | 00:01 |
mdg | Devon_C: also grap gtkpod | 00:01 |
droptothetop | hoolz, well if you set it, then it will be hashed in /etc/shadow | 00:01 |
cbhl | Apollo2366: What did you type into bash, exactly? | 00:01 |
mdg | grap/grab | 00:01 |
Apollo2366 | flock-browser | 00:01 |
droptothetop | hoolz, you won't actually be able to see the password itself | 00:01 |
Devon_C | mdg: :/ it doesn't support iPod touches | 00:01 |
cbhl | wildboy211: Hm, that's a bit above my level, sorry. Perhaps someone else here can help you. | 00:01 |
droptothetop | hoolz, just it's hash | 00:01 |
Devon_C | mdg: or it least doesn't say anything about them | 00:01 |
hoolz | oh | 00:01 |
hoolz | is it crackable? | 00:01 |
wildboy211 | thanks anyways... | 00:01 |
mdg | Devon_C: gtkpod does 1st generation | 00:01 |
Devon_C | mdg: I'm reinstalling gnomad | 00:01 |
droptothetop | hoolz, it would take awhile | 00:01 |
krisss117 | hi how change drivers wifi ? | 00:01 |
Devon_C | mdg: oh, great! | 00:02 |
cbhl | Apollo2366: what does "echo $PATH" tell you? | 00:02 |
hoolz | droptothetop are there any vuln for ubuntu desktop | 00:02 |
hoolz | or is it secure? | 00:02 |
krisss117 | how change drivers wifi ??? | 00:02 |
cbhl | hoolz: If you have physical access to the PC, you could always overwrite Ubuntu with another OS (e.g. Windows)... that could be considered "insecure" | 00:03 |
mdg | Devon_C: I have a web page tutorial for gtkpod http://www.simplehelp.net/2007/07/07/how-to-use-gtkpod-to-manage-your-ipod-in-ubuntu/ | 00:03 |
Devon_C | mdg: okay, I think I need to actually mount my iPod | 00:03 |

satellite | Excuse me y'all... is there a plugin for XCHAT that edits that capitalizes the first letter and adds punctuation? | 00:04 |
cbhl | Apollo2366: Try restarting your terminal... if that doesn't help, try logging out and logging back in. If I recall correctly, /etc/environment only gets read a few times, so when you change it you need to force whatever it is that loads it to reread /etc/environment | 00:04 |
wildboy211 | anybody else think they can help me...i need to get my USB network adapter workign | 00:04 |
th0r | wildboy211: I sent you a link where someone got that adapter working | 00:05 |

wildboy211 | ? | 00:11 |
mdg | Devon_C: Devon_C make sure no music player is open | 00:11 |
satellite | evon: I would definitely not do anything until you backup your information. | 00:11 |
cbhl | Apollo2366: Well, that would be a symbolic link, although sometimes they don't work as expected | 00:11 |
Devon_C | mdg: gnomad2 was up | 00:11 |

Devon_C | mdg: lemme try again... | 00:11 |
mdg | Devon_C: close gnomad2 banshee rhythmbox... etc. | 00:12 |

mdg | Devon_C: then restart and before you click load ipod check again that no music player or anything is running | 00:12 |
giampiero | Good evening everyone | 00:13 |
Devon_C | mdg: okay, so you want me to restart my computer? | 00:13 |
cbhl | Apollo2366: Just keep in mind that it might not work as expected -- for example, there's a program called busybox (which you may have heard of) which acts differently depending on what name it's called with | 00:13 |
mdg | Devon_C: no not computer, just gtkpod | 00:13 |
satellite | evon: If you are enlarging a partition, than you are not combining two with data... OK then Go for it. | 00:13 |
Devon_C | mdg: thats what I thought, okay... trying again | 00:13 |
giampiero | Hello I've got a problem can anybody please help? | 00:13 |

AndorinKato | mdg: Manage connections, network management settings, panel options | 00:24 |
mdg | AndorinKato: is "enable networking" checked? | 00:24 |
AndorinKato | mdg: There is no 'enable networking' option when she right-clicks the icon. | 00:24 |
cbhl | giampiero: For example, "sdlmame <my filename>" | 00:24 |
Kjell | giampiero: to copy use sudo cp <source> <destination> | 00:24 |
giampiero | The install file does everything on its own, I don't think I can change destination directories... | 00:24 |

Devon_C | mdg: the browse button where? | 00:25 |
cbhl | giampiero: What file do you need to copy into those directories, exactly? | 00:25 |

mobi-sheep | raylu: Where under Launchpad? There are either File a bug or Ask a question? | 00:30 |
raylu | mobi-sheep: i think you file a bug and mark it as a feature request, but i'm not sure. | 00:30 |
Devon_C | mdg: okay, let's start from the beginning again - I just exited gtkpod and re-plugged in my iPod | 00:31 |
cbhl | giampiero: You have two options... | 00:31 |
raylu | tyler_d: "sudo iwlits sc" may help you | 00:31 |
Devon_C | the window comes up | 00:31 |
startbox | Guys! is tmp the only "temp" folder in ubuntu | 00:31 |
tyler_d | had help earlier but my machine then crashed and now I don't have it working, commands aren't showing in history either? | 00:31 |
raylu | tyler_d: *iwlist | 00:31 |
MrPockets | why would you get an Initramfs bustbox shell when installing 8.10 ? | 00:31 |
raylu | tyler_d: your bash history is at ~/.bash_history | 00:31 |
raylu | tyler_d: and can also be searched by typing something at the prompt and hitting ctrl+r | 00:31 |
giaco | I'd like to join 5 high resolution pngs into an avi file (1600x1200) where every image stays for 3 seconds, and then the next one. Which linux software would you use to accomplish this? Do you know the mencoder command? | 00:31 |
cbhl | giampiero: As far as I can tell, you can either A) attempt to read the output of "man sdlmame" and set up a config file outside of the root-owned folder (you will need to pass arguments to sdlmame everytime you run it) | 00:31 |
tyler_d | raylu: system crashed | 00:31 |
Devon_C | mdg: the window comes up and it says "Apple, Inc. iPod" You have just inserted a medium with digital photos. Choose what application to launch." | 00:31 |
mdg | Devon_C: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363 | 00:32 |
cbhl | giampiero: Or you can use "sudo" to run editors and/or copy files into the root-owned directory ("e.g. sudo gedit or sudo cp <from> <to>" | 00:32 |
tyler_d | raylu: now that lists the wireless networks, but through network manager they don't show? | 00:32 |
cbhl | giampiero: * (e.g. "sudo gedit" or "sudo cp <from> <to>") | 00:32 |
raylu | tyler_d: no idea, then | 00:32 |
mdg | Devon_C: the computer is seeing your ipod then :) | 00:32 |
raylu | tyler_d: but now you know that it's not a drive rissue | 00:32 |
AndorinKato | mdg: No, it's a wireless card that is installed into her motherboard. | 00:32 |
cbhl | giampiero: Does that make sense? | 00:32 |
tyler_d | yup yup | 00:32 |
tyler_d | ty raylu | 00:33 |
Giraffe | I'm having problems with sound lag in games on Intrepid; I think the issue is SDL-related. Has anyone else had similar issues? | 00:33 |
tyler_d | anyone else have an idea? | 00:33 |
raylu | !gksu | cbhl | 00:33 |
ubottu | cbhl: 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) | 00:33 |
giampiero | cbhl: I will give it a try, thank you very much for your help it was very kind of you. | 00:33 |

cbhl | giampiero: Apparently for gedit you should be using "gksudo gedit"... thanks to raylu for the correction | 00:34 |
AndorinKato | halberd: I think you have to do it through the terminal. | 00:34 |
mdg | AndorinKato: whats the name of the adapter again? | 00:34 |
Devon_C | mdg: hang on... this isn't going to work for an iPod Touch | 00:34 |
raylu | !dualboot | burder | 00:34 |
ubottu | burder: Dual boot instructions: x86/AMD64: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo - MACs: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro https://help.ubuntu.com/community/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot | 00:34 |
tyler_d | so the network-manager is not showing the wireless connections? unable to connect through it. | 00:34 |
AndorinKato | mdg: D-link wda 1320. | 00:34 |
=== MrPockets is now known as A|X |
=== |sam| is now known as sAM_ |
tyler_d | says wireless network not managed in grey there | 00:35 |
raylu | tyler_d: sounds like you configured it in /etc/network/interfaces, so network-manager is ignoring it | 00:35 |
tyler_d | so I should roll back the changes made to /etc/network/interfaces? | 00:36 |
giampiero | cbhl: is there any way to make the content of file system available for write also? | 00:36 |
Devon_C | mdg: okay I think I did it | 00:36 |
halberd | kde has kde-hal-device-manager | 00:36 |
halberd | ubuntu has nothing like that? | 00:36 |
=== cthulhu is now known as Guest5842 |
mdg | AndorinKato: this is a broadcom adapter | 00:36 |
raylu | tyler_d: so... you did make changes? did you back them up or something? | 00:36 |
halberd | or I could just get the kde one | 00:36 |
raylu | !permissions | giampiero | 00:37 |
ubottu | giampiero: An explanation of what file permissions are and how they can be manipulated can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions | 00:37 |
tyler_d | raylu: I did make changes to the file... added wlan0=managed within there as well | 00:37 |
AndorinKato | mdg: Ok, cool, but where does that get us? | 00:37 |
raylu | giampiero: also, generally, you can configure software on a per-user basis with a configuration file in your home directory. reading the documentation for your specific app will help you with that | 00:37 |
raylu | tyler_d: yes, i'd recommend reverting those changes then | 00:37 |
giampiero | Thank you very much everybody :-) | 00:37 |
Devon_C | mdg: nope, it came up again as a digi camera | 00:38 |
CAZ_au | Is it possible to have a WiFi adaptor working in Ubuntu that runs on a VM | 00:38 |
mdg | AndorinKato: type "ifconfig" in a terminal | 00:38 |
mdg | Devon_C: I'm not sure what to tell you. | 00:39 |
AndorinKato | mdg: We have done that and she got results for eth0 and lo. | 00:39 |
Devon_C | mdg: yeah, thanks for all your help so far | 00:39 |
satellite | Can I connect to a wifi network on wlan0 in a failsafe terminal? | 00:39 |
AndorinKato | mdg: I ran the command on my laptop for comparison and I got a wlan0 section, which she did not. | 00:39 |
mdg | Devon_C: your welcome -wish we could have gotten it to work | 00:40 |
Devon_C | mdg: I think putting it into disk mode might do the trick | 00:41 |
Devon_C | mdg: I just found a way to do it, but all it's doing for my iPod is turning it off | 00:41 |
raylu | AndorinKato: different drivers, different device names | 00:41 |
mdg | Devon_C: i think you want it off in disk mode - like a usb | 00:41 |
jigp | good morning :) i have 1 freenode and 1 bitlbee. how to connect to another irc | 00:42 |
jigp | server and to disconnect in 1st server or 2nd server without | 00:42 |
jigp | affecting the 1st or 2nd server or whichever server irc to | 00:42 |
jigp | disconnect and not to disconnect. thanks | 00:42 |
FloodBot2 | jigp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:42 |
jigp | sorry | 00:42 |
Devon_C | mdg: I'll try that next | 00:42 |
AndorinKato | raylu: Then what should ifconfig show her that has to do with wireless? | 00:42 |
linuxguy2009 | Can anyone recommend a good WYSIWYG(no coding required) web design application? Doesn't appear to be many so far but hopefully I'm wrong. | 00:42 |
raylu | AndorinKato: sorry, haven't been following the conversation, so i have no idea. just mentioning after reading your last line | 00:42 |
Flannel | jigp: /connect [server] | 00:43 |
AndorinKato | Ok | 00:43 |
raylu | AndorinKato: also, if the device isn't up, ifconfig -a will show it | 00:43 |
jigp | good morning :) i have 1 freenode and 1 bitlbee. how to connect to another irc server and to disconnect in 1st server or 2nd server without affecting the 1st or 2nd server or whichever server irc to disconnect and not to disconnect. thanks | 00:43 |
jigp | Flannel: okay how to disconnect server irc 1? | 00:43 |
jigp | Flannel : without affecting the server 2... | 00:43 |
raylu | jigp: /wn will get you a new window. ctrl+x will switch servers. you can /disconnect from there. /server list will also help you | 00:43 |
mdg | AndorinKato: did she get a cd with drivers? | 00:43 |
Flannel | jigp: Go to window 1, and you use ctrl-x to cycle through them, then /disconnect | 00:43 |
raylu | oh, right, if you still have the status window enabled, that'll work too | 00:44 |
AndorinKato | raylu: Now she also gets pan0 but still nothing for wireless | 00:44 |
Devon_C | mdg: looks like I'll have to wait until my sister moves out - I can take her desktop with Windows XP installed on it | 00:44 |
jigp | Flannel : window 1 which is the [status] right? | 00:44 |
Devon_C | mdg: but man, I really wish this would have worked | 00:44 |
raylu | AndorinKato: what card/driver is "she" using? | 00:44 |
Flannel | jigp: correct, after your nick you see something like: [1:freenode (change with ^X)] | 00:44 |
Flannel | jigp: That'll change as you cycle | 00:44 |
mdg | Devon_C: did you update your 2 day old install? | 00:44 |
Devon_C | mdg: yeah, of course | 00:44 |
Devon_C | mdg: I can check for updates then restart | 00:45 |
Devon_C | see if that helps | 00:45 |
AndorinKato | mdg: She says she did but apparently the disc is designed for Windows | 00:45 |
mdg | Devon_C: just checking - | 00:45 |
jigp | Flannel : so win i do cntl+x i will just type /disconnect server1 ? and server2 will not disconnect? | 00:45 |
mdg | AndorinKato: that's okay. We need the WIN XP driver from it. But before that | 00:45 |
Flannel | jigp: just /disconnect will disconnect you from your current server | 00:45 |
AndorinKato | raylu: Her wireless card is a D-link WTA 1320 | 00:45 |
jigp | Flannel : win/when | 00:45 |
linuxguy2009 | Man I wish there was a DreamWeaver replacement for Linux. | 00:45 |
mdg | AndorinKato: we need to make sure ndiswrapper and ntgdisk are installed | 00:45 |
AndorinKato | Ok | 00:45 |
raylu | linuxguy2009: there's a better one. it's called a text editor | 00:45 |
sebastien_ | nothing replace Dreamweaver | 00:46 |
Devon_C | mdg: hmmm... something just updated | 00:46 |
jigp | Flannel : ok thanks :) good morning | 00:46 |
sebastien_ | the best WYSIWYG | 00:46 |
Flannel | !html | linuxguy2009 | 00:46 |
ubottu | linuxguy2009: html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build web pages. WYSIWYG editors: KompoZer (was Nvu), Iceape Composer, Amaya - Development environments: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem - For a howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com/ | 00:46 |
AndorinKato | mdg: She has neither. | 00:46 |
linuxguy2009 | raylu: Im too lazy to learn HTML coding. Why bother. | 00:46 |
cyberghoser1 | mdg, actually it's ndisgtk ;) | 00:46 |
raylu | linuxguy2009: it's not even coding. and you should bother because nobody wants more crap spit out of wysiwyg editors on the internet | 00:46 |
sebastien_ | aren't you a pro dev linuxguy2009 ? | 00:47 |
mdg | AndorinKato: we need to go in through synaptic Menu - Administration -Synaptic | 00:47 |
Devon_C | oh, and another quick thing - anyone can answer this | 00:47 |
raylu | sebastien_: he uses dreamweaver, what kind of question is that? | 00:47 |
Devon_C | how do I hide folders? is there an option in preferences? | 00:47 |
linuxguy2009 | nope not a pro at all. | 00:47 |
Devon_C | I couldnt seem to find it | 00:47 |
linuxguy2009 | brb | 00:47 |
AndorinKato | mdg: Real quick, she isn't connected to the Internet, will this make a difference? | 00:47 |
raylu | Devon_C: the simplest way is to start their names with a . | 00:47 |
Flannel | raylu: When helping, please be helpful. | 00:47 |
mdg | cyberghoser1: thanks! | 00:48 |
Devon_C | raylu: so start with a "." | 00:48 |
cyberghoser1 | :) | 00:48 |
Eternal_Sin | hi everyone | 00:48 |
cyberghoser1 | hi Eternal_Sin | 00:48 |
sebastien_ | hi | 00:48 |
raylu | Flannel: sorry :( | 00:48 |
Devon_C | raylu: that didn't work :/ | 00:49 |
mdg | AndorinKato: yes she needs internet access somehow to get these | 00:49 |
raylu | Devon_C: what did you do? | 00:49 |
AndorinKato | mdg: Well, her entire problem is that she's trying to /get/ connectefd | 00:49 |
AndorinKato | -f | 00:49 |
Devon_C | raylu: the folder name is pf3 so i changed it to ".pf3" | 00:49 |
raylu | AndorinKato: you can't temporarily plug in an ethernet cable? | 00:49 |
cyberghoser1 | Devon_C, if you put a dot in front of the file/folder you want to hide it will not show up in nautilus unless you use preferences -> show hidden folders | 00:50 |
AndorinKato | raylu: No, I don't think she has one long enough anyway | 00:50 |
mdg | AndorinKato: no ethernet adapter and cable? | 00:50 |
raylu | Devon_C: it should be hidden when you "ls" that directory now. and what cyberghoser1 said about nautilus | 00:50 |
Devon_C | raylu: yeah, that worked | 00:51 |
Devon_C | thanks! | 00:51 |
mdg | are ndiswrapper and ndiskgtc on the install cd - does anyone know? | 00:51 |
raylu | mdg: pretty sure they're not | 00:51 |
raylu | prepare for dependency hell. | 00:51 |
Devon_C | alright folks... thanks for all your help! especially mdg, thanks so much man | 00:52 |
mdg | AndorinKato: are you and your friend in the same location? | 00:52 |
hikenboot_ | hello can anyone tell me the equivalent in ubuntu for emege -av nvidia-drivers? | 00:52 |
AndorinKato | mdg: No, I'm talking to her over the phone | 00:52 |
Devon_C | I'll be rolling out now | 00:52 |
mdg | Devon_C: your welcome - wish it would have turned out better | 00:52 |
raylu | hikenboot_: aptitude install nvidia-glx | 00:52 |
Flannel | mdg, raylu: ndiswrapper is, and... ndisgtk is too. | 00:52 |
raylu | hikenboot_: there's no real equivalent to -a, but -s simulates | 00:52 |
et | !slap Varakh | 00:53 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about slap Varakh | 00:53 |
mdg | Flannel: can you walk AndorinKato how to install them from disk? | 00:53 |
mdg | Flannel: I've never done that from the install disk before | 00:54 |
hikenboot_ | raylu, i am following these gentoo directions http://legroom.net/2008/06/22/running-binary-nvidia-drivers-under-xen-host but it seems like their command installs it against a different kernel source... | 00:54 |
mdg | Flannel: Oh, you add the disk through SYnaptic right? | 00:54 |
undertaker | tgv | 00:54 |
giaco | I'd like to join 5 high resolution pngs into an avi file (1600x1200) where every image stays for 3 seconds, and then the next one. Which linux software would you use to accomplish this? Do you know the mencoder command? | 00:54 |
Flannel | mdg, AndorinKato: put your install CD in the drive (with Ubuntu running), if it doesn't automatically pick it up, go to a terminal and do: `sudo apt-cdrom add` and then your CD will be added as a repository. Then use whatever package manager you want (synaptic) to install the package. | 00:54 |
raylu | hikenboot_: that command should install it for the currently running kernel's source.. probably. | 00:54 |
Flannel | mdg: Yeah, it's just a repo on the CD | 00:54 |
mubu | Hey guys is there any command or way to know what version of an application i have installed (i didnt install it through synaptic).? Im interested in know what version of AWN (avant window manager) I am running. Thanks | 00:54 |
AndorinKato | Flannel: Before we get into it, she's running Kubuntu 9.04. Does this make a difference? | 00:55 |
mdg | Flannel: that's easy! :) Thanks! | 00:55 |
raylu | mdg: by default, i think there's a commented line in /etc/apt/sources.list with the cd repo | 00:55 |
Flannel | AndorinKato: I'll double check the Kubuntu CD | 00:55 |
Flannel | raylu: Only if you install with the alternate CD | 00:55 |
raylu | mubu: mos tapps have --version | 00:55 |
myk_robinson | how do you configure virtual hosts for Apache in Ubuntu Jaunty? | 00:56 |
raylu | Flannel: i've always installed with the desktop cd on a usb and it's been there | 00:56 |
raylu | mubu: *most apps | 00:56 |
mubu | raylu will try it out thanks | 00:56 |
mdg | Flannel: can I ask -how did you determine they are on the install cd? | 00:56 |
raylu | myk_robinson: there are a ton of guides on the internet. also, try #ubuntu-server | 00:56 |
mubu | raylu wokred like a charm | 00:56 |
Flannel | mdg: hmm, kubuntu doesn't have a .list file for some reason. Yeah, This file lists everything on the CD (for this particular version): http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.list | 00:57 |
Flannel | mdg: That's in the same folder on the mirrors as the ISOs themselves, .list is a listing of the contents of the CD, .manifest is a list of the packages built into the live image | 00:57 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: What are you trying to configure? | 00:58 |
mdg | Flannel: I did not know that - excellent! :) | 00:58 |
^Phantom^ | Can anyone please recommend me a good tv tuner program for ubuntu? | 00:58 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: I want to use /home/user/Public/WWW as the root, with subfolders inside for sites I am working on for testing before uploading to a real webserver | 00:58 |
marca311 | ^Phantom^: Myth TV | 00:59 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: Does it hvave to be root? or can it be domain/~user/? since that's already set up actually. | 00:59 |
ewsubach | i am having trouble deleting files. I am logged in as root, the files are owned by root, they do not have any special extended attributes, but yet rm says "cannot remove 'file_name': Permission denied" | 00:59 |
* ^Phantom^ looks into it | 00:59 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: for example, /home/user/Public/WWW/siteA /home/user/Public/WWW/siteB | 00:59 |
AndorinKato | Flannel: So I suppose that you can't be sure whether those files are on the CD? | 00:59 |
mdg | Flannel: we decided that kubuntu has ndiswrapper and ndiskgtk on the cd? I was reading... sorry | 00:59 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: I meant as the root directory for Apache, not root user | 00:59 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: Righ, I know. | 00:59 |
iceroot | ewsubach: read-online file-system? | 00:59 |
ewsubach | iceroot: nope | 01:00 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: Would a subfolder for your username be sufficient? or do you actually need the webroot? | 01:00 |
MellowDude | hi all | 01:00 |
raylu | ewsubach: show us the actual command you're using? | 01:00 |
^Phantom^ | do i need the control centre too? | 01:00 |
MellowDude | do u all know a good alternative to norton ghost | 01:00 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: not really sure. I have been doing a little reading and may have gotten confused. What do you recommend? I want to use a directory that does not require Root privileges | 01:00 |
Flannel | mdg, AndorinKato: I know Ubuntu does. Kubuntu almost certianly has ndiswrapper, but it's doubtful it has a GTK utility. I can't verify, since I don't see a .list file, but you could open up the kubuntu CD in a file browser and look | 01:00 |
iceroot | MellowDude: what is norton ghost? | 01:00 |
JackGray | keep forgetting... how do you attach to the currently open x on the /host's/ side of ssh (i.e. how do you open applications and have them show up on the host's screen rather than -X over the client's) | 01:00 |
marca311 | ^Phantom^: idk | 01:01 |
ewsubach | raylu: root@ewslaptop:~/.local/share/Trash/files/BackupSecure/Backup# rm * | 01:01 |
MellowDude | iceroot its an HD ghosting program | 01:01 |
g-hennux | hi! | 01:01 |
iceroot | myk_robinson: use mod_userdor /home/username/public_html as your www-root | 01:01 |
sebastien_ | oh hi | 01:01 |
Apollo2366 | Anyone know where I can find an .svg version of the icon for the Flock browser? | 01:01 |
iceroot | myk_robinson: mod_userdir | 01:01 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: If you put stuff in ~/public_html/ (and make it readable by the user www-data) then it'll show up at http://whatever/~username/ | 01:01 |
g-hennux | my nikon coolpix camera doesn't work any more via usb in (k)ubuntu | 01:01 |
Apollo2366 | the download doesn't come with one | 01:01 |
g-hennux | i.e. neither can i mount it nor can digikam open it | 01:02 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: This is just a test machine and stuff? | 01:02 |
mdg | Flannel: i wonder if there is a kubuntu equivalament of ndiskgtc? | 01:02 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: yes, on my laptop, just want to be able to test sites before uploading | 01:02 |
g-hennux | [20938.389161] usb 4-2: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd gvfs-gphoto2-vo rqt 33 rq 102 len 0 ret -110 | 01:02 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: alright, then what we'll do is simply do some permission-magic to make it so you don't need to use sudo to throw stuff into /var/www/ | 01:02 |
raylu | myk_robinson: then why do you need virtual hosts? | 01:02 |
marca311 | ^Phantom^: it has an IRC room. Same server as this, #mythtv_users | 01:03 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: The easiest way to do it is to add yourself to the www-data group (sudo adduser username www-data) and then sudo chmod g+w /var/www | 01:03 |
legend2440 | MellowDude: i use partimage. | 01:03 |
marca311 | ^Phantom^: sorry I mean #mythtv-users | 01:04 |
myk_robinson | raylu: I read some of the tutorials online, and am just regurgitating what they claim i needed to do. That's why i came here, I already read some stuff online and it all seems to conflict with each other | 01:04 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: You'll have to log back in for the group addition to take effect, but you'll then be able to write to /var/www as your regular user | 01:04 |
mdg | AndorinKato: you still with us? | 01:04 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: you mind if I make this private so i can keep up for a sec? | 01:04 |
Flannel | myk_robinson: I don't mind repeating or whatnot, but sure. | 01:04 |
AndorinKato | mdg: Yes, just in PM with someone atm, thank you | 01:04 |
mdg | oh okay | 01:04 |
^Phantom^ | Oh okay. Thankies, marca311 | 01:05 |
MellowDude | i found a program called Ghost for Linux but i dont know if its any good or not | 01:06 |
legend2440 | MellowDude: ive used both g4l and partimage. i like partimage better | 01:07 |

ocarinahuff | how do I use irssi to connect to xbmc irc? | 01:10 |
raylu | sAM_: if he has firefox installed some other way, that won't be such a great idea | 01:10 |

sAM_ | yeh you are righ raylu :( | 01:10 |

derspankster | bsmith_: you just want to use an other dns? | 01:17 |
marca311 | !moo | 01:17 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about moo | 01:17 |
Hilikus | raylu yes | 01:17 |
raylu | derspankster: i believe he wants a dns entry pointing to him | 01:17 |
raylu | Hilikus: what ryanprior said :P | 01:17 |
Hilikus | ryanprior i see, is it lighter than stock ubuntu then i guess | 01:17 |
derspankster | raylu" Oh, OK. | 01:17 |
satellite | raylu: http://tinyurl.com/lupp4d | 01:17 |
ryanprior | Hilikus: no, heavier by a significant bit actually. | 01:17 |
bsmith_ | derspankster: I want to use my linux box as a server. | 01:18 |
ryanprior | Hilikus: the main difference is that it's optimized to take advantage of every available bit of screen space. | 01:18 |
satellite | I do not like the NBR | 01:19 |
raylu | satellite: apt-get -s purge libstdc++5 | 01:19 |
ryanprior | satellite: Please suggest improvements by writing Launchpad blueprints, filing bugs, and participating in the Ubuntu Brainstorm. | 01:19 |
raylu | bsmith_: i use no-ip.com for this purpose | 01:19 |
bsmith_ | raylu: are you working without a router? | 01:20 |
Hilikus | ryanprio really?? so xuvbuntu would be better or remix will run well in terms of performance in a netbook? | 01:20 |
raylu | bsmith_: no, but the configuration isn't in my router anyway | 01:20 |
raylu | Hilikus: it | 01:20 |
raylu | whoops. | 01:20 |
raylu | Hilikus: it's more suitable for small screens | 01:20 |
bsmith_ | raylu: I set up an account with dyndns.org. Does no-ip.com cost money? | 01:20 |
ryanprior | Hilikus: I think that Xubuntu would be the easiest on your memory and processor; but xubuntu, kubuntu, and ubuntu assume that you have a full-sized screen, which makes the experience less enjoyable. | 01:21 |
raylu | bsmith_: if you want an "enhanced domain." otherwise, no | 01:21 |
myxo | anyone know a site that could help me get Ubuntu installed on a Toshiba Satellite 8355, after it reads the disc the screen just stays black indefinitely after "Install" is selected | 01:21 |
raylu | !alternate | myxo | 01:21 |
ubottu | myxo: The Alternate CD is a classic text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the link on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal | 01:21 |
satellite | !livecd | 01:21 |
ubottu | The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 01:21 |
satellite | !liveusb | 01:21 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about liveusb | 01:21 |
bsmith_ | raylu: Will this conflict with dyndns.org? | 01:21 |
raylu | bsmith_: no, as long as you tell others to use your no-ip subdomain | 01:22 |
raylu | bsmith_: multiple dns entries can point to the same ip | 01:22 |
myxo | raylu thanks! is the % near to 100 to say it works on "all" pcs lol? | 01:22 |
Hilikus | ryanprior so even if it would be lighter to run xubuntu, remix still runs well + with good screen usage? | 01:22 |
ryanprior | bsmith_: dyndns and no-ip do pretty much the same thing. | 01:22 |
raylu | myxo: ubuntu isn't even near 100% pc support | 01:22 |
bsmith_ | ryanprior: Ok so setting up no-ip would result in not being able to view my site either. | 01:23 |
myxo | raylu rofl | 01:23 |
ryanprior | bsmith_: the Netbook Remix works well on the netbooks I've tried. | 01:23 |
myxo | raylu would a diff distrobution be more wide ranging? anything similar? | 01:23 |
raylu | myxo: ubuntu intentionally only spports i386 and amd64 to reduce the workload | 01:23 |
ryanprior | bsmith_: That's not what I mean. no-ip would point to your website, and dyndns would also point to your website. | 01:23 |
raylu | myxo: but you didn't really ask the right question | 01:23 |
ryanprior | Hilikus: the Netbook Remix works well on the netbooks I've tried. | 01:24 |
ryanprior | bsmith_: sorry about the netbook comment, got the name wrong. =D | 01:24 |
raylu | myxo: i'd just try the alternate cd for now | 01:24 |
Raydiation | im always having problems with the audio in gtk-recordmydesktop | 01:24 |
ryanprior | We're introducing ARM support, IIRC. | 01:24 |
Raydiation | does someone know how to fix this? | 01:25 |
raylu | ryanprior: o.0, really? | 01:25 |
bsmith_ | ryanprior: Thats fine. I can't even connect to the ip address yet alone the website. | 01:25 |
Hilikus | ok a different questions. is it possible to have a conditional /etc/hosts based on which network you are in? if im in my home network i cant connect my server using the external ip, so i have problems with mount, bookmarks, etc. i need something that when detects im inmy network maps a name to a local ip and otherwise map the same name to the external ip | 01:25 |
Hilikus | ryan thank you | 01:25 |
myxo | raylu ah ok, i dont seem to see it on the download screen, still looking =p | 01:25 |
Raydiation | it hangs/gets faster a lot | 01:25 |
ryanprior | raylu: yes, announced in November 2008 | 01:25 |
ryanprior | raylu: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/arm-linux | 01:25 |
satellite | How do I hook my AC unit to my UBUNTU | 01:26 |
ryanprior | Hilikus: enjoy :-) | 01:26 |
rmattb | can anyone point me to a doc on installing the python2.4 (not 2.5) profiler in ubuntu? thanks! | 01:26 |

isotherm | hey, does someone have a 9.04 x86 livecd handy? | 01:27 |
myxo | raylu amd64 version is for any 64 bit system right? | 01:27 |
ryanprior | isotherm: yeah, I've got one. Here you go. | 01:27 |
Hilikus | anyone? | 01:27 |
* ryanprior hands the CD to isotherm. | 01:27 |
raylu | myxo: any 64-bit system that you're likely to encounter, yess | 01:27 |
myxo | raylu mk, wasnt sure because it had amd, what does amd mean in that case? | 01:28 |
isotherm | i'm missing the files in /.disk (very small text files), i'm wondering if someone can provide them | 01:28 |
raylu | myxo: that amd likes seeing their brand name on the architecture name | 01:28 |
myxo | raylu oh lol | 01:28 |
satellite | No fridgidaire drivers? | 01:28 |
bishop | leaving..bbak | 01:28 |

RequinB4 | hey i'm getting a new box tomorrow and wondering if there is any reason i shouldn't install the 64bit version | 01:29 |
Hilikus | contional /etc/hosts anyone | 01:29 |
Hilikus | conditional* | 01:29 |
jv2 | hi | 01:29 |
raylu | RequinB4: a few programs might have compatibility issues. how much RAM do you have and what do you intend to use your machine for? | 01:29 |
CarlFK1 | RequinB4: 64 has been working great for me for over 8 months | 01:29 |
ryanprior | RequinB4: flash for Ubuntu 64-bit sucks. Apart from that, no reason. | 01:29 |
RequinB4 | raylu - 4GB, nothing particularly special just general use | 01:30 |
jv2 | i deleted nm-applet and I can't start it now..running latest | 01:30 |
jv2 | koala | 01:30 |
RequinB4 | ryanprior - that's what i was afraid of | 01:30 |
CarlFK1 | ryanprior: my flash sucks less than when I was on 32 | 01:30 |
jv2 | bad mistake | 01:30 |
raylu | RequinB4: i'd go with 64-bit, then | 01:30 |
RequinB4 | cool | 01:30 |
RequinB4 | thx | 01:30 |
ryanprior | CarlFK1: amen to that, Flash sucks | 01:30 |
RequinB4 | i guess if flash doesn't work i can always reinstall | 01:30 |
ryanprior | RequinB4: you can also just install 32-bit Flash | 01:30 |
RequinB4 | is there a 64-bit gnash or swfdec? | 01:31 |
CarlFK1 | I just installed FF3.5, hoping to make a 20 byte html page that lets me play a .ogv stream from an icecast server | 01:31 |
ryanprior | RequinB4: you betcha, 64-bit Gnash runs great | 01:31 |
jv2 | if i do iwconfig ra0 essid network_name it does not stick | 01:31 |
RequinB4 | that works too, thx | 01:31 |
raylu | ryanprior: full-screen support? | 01:31 |
CarlFK1 | if FF will stream .ogv ... I am going to join the crusade | 01:31 |
raylu | jv2: sudo. also, iwconfig ra0 commit | 01:32 |
Amaeth | Hi, im with a problem with my apt-get; can someone helpme? | 01:32 |
raylu | Amaeth: only if you're more specific | 01:32 |
ryanprior | raylu: The virtual machine has full-screen support, don't know whether it's implemented in ActionScript yet or not. | 01:32 |
LordDragon | hey all | 01:32 |
raylu | ryanprior: the virtual machine? | 01:32 |
ryanprior | I think that we should support "apt-get halp" | 01:32 |
jv2 | Raylu: will try commit..did also with sudo | 01:32 |
isotherm | hmm can anyone provide me the files in /.disk or tell me where to find them online? | 01:32 |
=== cthulhu is now known as Guest42830 |
isotherm | google seach didn't show anything | 01:32 |
LordDragon | i just installed 9.04 on my mac mini. it installed ok, but whenever i go to "power management" it locks up ubuntu. the mouse still moves but everything is frozen. any ideas whats wrong ? | 01:32 |
ryanprior | raylu: Gnash is a general virtual runtime engine, with a Flash compatibility layer. | 01:33 |
raylu | isotherm: there shouldn't be anything in .disk. what filesystem and why? | 01:33 |
isotherm | these files in /.disk: base_installable casper-uuid-generic cd_type info release_notes_url | 01:33 |
Hodapp | ryanprior: what sort of other stuff can Gnash do? | 01:33 |
isotherm | from the lvecd | 01:33 |
mdg | LordDragon: are mac mini ppc? | 01:33 |
LordDragon | mdg, no its an intel mac mini | 01:33 |
isotherm | i know that base_installable is empty, but the others are small text files | 01:33 |
ryanprior | Hodapp: At its core, it's a general media-display platform that can theoretically support any sort of programming interface. | 01:33 |
kad_ | heys brothers! anyone has used tripwire ! thx | 01:34 |
isotherm | i have a live usb missing those files, so it will not boot | 01:34 |
Hodapp | ryanprior: interesting. | 01:34 |
raylu | isotherm: i think that's only for the squashfs on the livecd. they shouldn't be there on an installed system | 01:34 |
Amaeth | oks; i cnt install upgrade check remove autoremove or force any aplication in apt-get: its response | 01:34 |
Amaeth | http://pastebin.com/d4cda9935 | 01:34 |
isotherm | ubuntu not installed yet | 01:34 |
ryanprior | Hodapp: its compliment is Cygnal, a general media-distribution server with Flash Media Server compatibility | 01:34 |
mdg | Amaeth: did you apt-get update first? | 01:35 |
jv2 | raylu: command was nm-applet --sm-disable from autostart | 01:35 |
raylu | jv2: huh? | 01:35 |
Amaeth | yes i did | 01:35 |
raylu | Amaeth: could you show us your /etc/apt/sources.list and tell us if there are any files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d? | 01:36 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: got PHP problems.. PHP is enabled, but not working for the /var/www/Church directory. Firefox asks where to save the file | 01:36 |
jv2 | the command written in the autostart applications was nm-applet --sm-disable | 01:36 |
xeer | Fresh install of 9.04, added some dev packages so that I could compile MPD. Also, compiled lastest version of glib. Now 90% of programs are complaining about libgio-2.0.so.0 having an incorrect symbol. This is causing everything to fail.. where could I find the old release of this library? | 01:36 |
raylu | jv2: ...ok? | 01:36 |
myk_robinson | Flannel: I placed a PHP info test file in /var/www and it returns the PHP Version 5.2.6 information | 01:36 |
Amaeth | umm i add the ppa of smc before it crash | 01:36 |
ryanprior | Right now I'm running 9.04, which is essential as a development platform. However, my graphics card is better support in 8.04. If I install 8.04 on another partition and let it use my current home directory, will it wreak havoc? | 01:36 |
raylu | Amaeth: i get the feeling that that is causing problems. perhaps you should comment it out | 01:37 |
jv2 | so i don't understand why it does not on the terminal .. | 01:37 |
isotherm | is there somewhere i can browse the files on a livced? | 01:37 |
jv2 | on jaunty nm-applet was enough to have the applet again | 01:37 |
mdg | isotherm: what version ubuntu? | 01:37 |
ryanprior | isotherm: yes, you can mount -o loop theimage.iso | 01:37 |
raylu | ryanprior: most likely, no. but different versions of some apps might not like their configuration files. evolution and pidign come to mind, especially | 01:37 |
isotherm | i don't have the ISO anymore, this is the problem | 01:37 |
legend2440 | isotherm: ok i'm looking at those file now what do you want? | 01:37 |
ryanprior | raylu: I use webmail and Empathy. Am I in the clear? | 01:38 |
raylu | ryanprior: hopefully :P | 01:38 |
Amaeth | raylu: i did that but i still have the same problem | 01:38 |
Amaeth | http://pastebin.com/d4cda9935 | 01:38 |
Amaeth | and i cnt uninstall any aplicacition to fix this | 01:38 |
ryanprior | hehe | 01:38 |
raylu | ryanprior: i think it'd be better to run 8.04 and just put 9.04 in a VM | 01:38 |
caffeinated | hello all | 01:38 |
raylu | Amaeth: update before running upgrade, after removing the PPA | 01:39 |
Amaeth | umm oks | 01:39 |
ryanprior | raylu: I'd do that if this weren't my memory-anemic laptop with an old Celeron processor with no virtualization support. | 01:39 |
jv2 | in the terminal nm-applet --sm-disable returns ** (nm-applet:5269): DEBUG: applet_common_device_state_changed | 01:39 |
raylu | ryanprior: oh. you could consider installing the drivers for 9.04 yourself, then | 01:39 |

raylu | xFire_: um... sure. actually, you added a group to your list of groups, but yes | 02:05 |
millertimek1a2m3 | raylu: the book was talking about C not having it's own editor. nm. stupid of me. editor/compiler. small read mistake but stilll dumb | 02:05 |
MellowDude | they say it work i have to try it | 02:05 |
xFire_ | raylu: group? | 02:06 |
raylu | mezquitale: the default sshd_config allows authentication with rsa keys, so no | 02:06 |

raylu | xFire_: yes. "id" may shed some light | 02:06 |

Phrogz | usr13_/raylu - are you confusing me with someone else? | 02:20 |

jv1 | au revoir | 02:42 |
coleys | Salut | 02:42 |
bsmith_ | Can anyone help me/ | 02:42 |
coleys | !ask | bsmith_ | 02:43 |
ubottu | bsmith_: 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. :-) | 02:43 |
jv1 | bsmith_: is it serious ? :) | 02:43 |
raylu | jwfoxjr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem/SimpleBackupSuite probably suits your needs best | 02:43 |
bsmith_ | I've follwed directions at HOWTO contro your home PC from your office (terminal, putty, ddclient & sshd) on ubuntu forums. Can someone help me with firestarter | 02:43 |
jwfoxjr | raylu: thanks | 02:43 |
coleys | bsmith_: uhh... Firestarter isn't being developed anymore is it? | 02:44 |
raylu | !firestarter | 02:44 |
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 | 02:44 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, did you make sure to forward the port on your router? | 02:44 |
bsmith_ | coleys: I am unaware of that, I just downloaded it recently. | 02:44 |
bsmith_ | R_YoYo_R: I am routerless | 02:44 |
coleys | bsmith_: I could be wrong, but you don't really need firestarter. Just complicates things unecessarily. | 02:44 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, ahh .... I just use the built in remote desktop app | 02:45 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, gnome or kde? | 02:45 |
zealiod | what account do cron jobs run under... the user account - or is there a cron system account? | 02:45 |
coleys | bsmith_: And... are you having truoble getting ssh to work? | 02:45 |
bsmith_ | R_YoYo_R: sorry i'm ubuntu stupid. I'm running ubunut 9.04 non server edition. | 02:45 |
bsmith_ | coleys: yes | 02:46 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, and you want to make sure you have a static IP .... | 02:46 |
coleys | bsmith_: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 02:46 |
raylu | zealiod: each user can have his own crontab | 02:46 |
jv1 | man! need to reinstall because reconfguring the keyboard settings did not work | 02:46 |
R_YoYo_R | then you can use VNC viewer.... just pop in your IP and you should be golden | 02:46 |
raylu | zealiod: that's what crontab's -u flag is for :D | 02:46 |
bsmith_ | R_YoYo_R: I'm avoiding that using dyndns.org to update back to xxx.homelinux.org. | 02:46 |
coleys | bsmith_: ssh -l coleys(Username) 192.168.2.18(local IP) | 02:46 |
zealiod | raylu: sure i understand that - but when the cron jobs are run - are they run as the user | 02:46 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, that works too. | 02:47 |
jv1 | and it's faster to install than to finding out what's wrong :) | 02:47 |
jv1 | at least for me | 02:47 |
raylu | zealiod: they're run under whover's crontab they are under | 02:47 |
coleys | bsmith_: So in this format: ssh -l username Localip(or internetip) | 02:47 |
zealiod | raylu: with there permission | 02:47 |
zealiod | raylu: then that is mighty weird | 02:47 |
raylu | zealiod: why? | 02:47 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, is port 5900 open? | 02:47 |
salam | i don't speak french | 02:47 |
coleys | R_YoYo_R: ssh uses 22. | 02:47 |
MellowDude | whats the off topic room name | 02:48 |

ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 02:48 |
jv1 | what language do you speak? portuguese? | 02:48 |
bsmith_ | R_YoYo_R: How can I check that | 02:48 |
bastidrazor | bsmith_, you don't have to use -l .. you could use ssh username@host(ip) | 02:48 |
zealiod | raylu: if i run this pyton script its all good, but the cron job falls over and requires the sudo passed - i've added this user to the visudo to allow sudo access.... but the cron job still requires a password, which breaks the program | 02:48 |
R_YoYo_R | coleys, bsmith_ is the point to ssh? did i miss something? I thought we were trying to do remote desktop | 02:48 |
salam | i don' tunderstand english | 02:48 |
RequinB4 | MellowDude - #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:48 |
coleys | R_YoYo_R: Ssh. | 02:48 |
R_YoYo_R | well i suppose you can use ssh to remote desktop but .... | 02:49 |
raylu | zealiod: why not just run the job as root? | 02:49 |
jv1 | salam: speak what language? | 02:49 |
bishop | leaving | 02:49 |
hikenboot_ | hello installed the debian kernel source for a kernel using dpkg -i ..unfortunately I do not see the source directory under /usr/src! where would the install have placed it? | 02:49 |
bsmith_ | R_YoYo_R: no remote desktop, dyndns.org "server" | 02:49 |
=== johanhjn_ is now known as johanhjn |
zealiod | raylu: erm, well - why should i have to? | 02:49 |
bsmith_ | coley: permission denied, checking typr | 02:49 |
raylu | hikenboot_: dpkg -L [package name] lists files owned by a pakcage | 02:49 |
hikenboot_ | thanks raylu | 02:50 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, so go into system\preferences\remote desktop | 02:50 |
raylu | zealiod: you want the job to do something that requires root permissions... sudo seems like a round-about way of doing it | 02:50 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, enable that | 02:50 |
coleys | bsmith_: Do both computers have... openssh-server installed on them? | 02:50 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, then on the windows machine use a vncviewer | 02:50 |
coleys | bsmith_: And are both connected to the internet/lan | 02:50 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, and go to whatever.homelinux.org:5900 | 02:50 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, and assuming port 5900 is open you should be all set | 02:51 |
zealiod | raylu: sure, but i only want the script to have access to certain programs, so i can specify those programs in the visudo entry | 02:51 |
zealiod | raylu: makes it a bit tighter - works ok for www user | 02:51 |
raylu | zealiod: show me your sudoers then, i guess | 02:51 |
legend2440 | jv1: whats wrong. keyboard settings keep changing from US to something else? | 02:52 |
zealiod | TheUser ALL= NOPASSWD: /home/SerenNet/, /sbin/iptables | 02:52 |
jv1 | legend2440: somehow i screwed up my keyboard settings | 02:52 |
zealiod | raylu: thats the entry | 02:52 |
bsmith_ | coleys: no I couldn't even intall openssh-server | 02:52 |
jv1 | and I can't get them to restore back to US | 02:52 |
jv1 | by systems > keyaboard | 02:52 |
coleys | bsmith_: sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 02:53 |
jv1 | beyboard | 02:53 |
jv1 | shoot | 02:53 |
coleys | bsmith_: sudo apt-get upgrate && sudo apt-get install openssh-server* | 02:53 |
jshsu | having sound issues, using pulseaudio, aplay -l doesn't show my soundcard, alsa info here: http://bit.ly/tKL5v | 02:53 |
coleys | dfijkdsgfd\ | 02:53 |
jv1 | sometimes I type ok ;) | 02:53 |
raylu | zealiod: either i'm misunderstanding sudoers syntax or /home/serennet/ is invalid | 02:53 |
coleys | bsmith_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install openssh-server* | 02:53 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, coleys i still dont understand why we are installing openssh ... all he wants to do is be able to remote into his machine from work | 02:53 |
jv1 | or by running the configuration on the terminal | 02:53 |
raylu | zealiod: also, try sudo -u TheUser sudo iptables -L | 02:53 |
legend2440 | jv1: can you paste the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? | 02:53 |
legend2440 | !paste | 02:53 |

A|X | does ubuntu server have a GUI? | 02:53 |
bsmith_ | coleys: working now | 02:54 |
coleys | R_YoYo_R: He said "SSH" and that is remote aswell... | 02:54 |
bobzillion | what file is responsible for the boot selection menu on the live CD? And can it be altered to point to a USB device as a choice? | 02:54 |
coleys | bsmith_: Perfect. | 02:54 |
raylu | A|X: that would be absurd | 02:54 |
A|X | i agree! | 02:54 |
zealiod | raylu: try in what capacity? | 02:54 |
zealiod | raylu: in the python script or? | 02:54 |
raylu | zealiod: just as your current user | 02:54 |
R_YoYo_R | coleys, right i assumed he read somewhere he needed SSH to do it. I was trying to take him down the easy route | 02:54 |
zealiod | raylu: that works fine | 02:54 |
bsmith_ | now what? | 02:54 |
joakimk | I'm at a hotel, using a wired internet service. In XP, Firefox takes me to the hotel's start page for the Internet access, where I can click to buy 24 hrs access. However, in Ubuntu, Firefox can't find a connection. Could I hook this up manually, somehow? | 02:55 |
coleys | R_YoYo_R: Ahh, well I bet he would like to have remote desktop access ie VNC aswell... Ssh is only cli. | 02:55 |
R_YoYo_R | bsmith_, can you try the suggestions i made previously? | 02:55 |
jv1 | yes, I will try..tx oh..there is no keyboard section | 02:55 |
R_YoYo_R | coleys, my point exactly | 02:55 |
jv1 | on xonrg.conf | 02:55 |
raylu | zealiod: and the crontab entry can be seen with "sudo crontab -u TheUser -e"? | 02:55 |
jv1 | xorg.conf | 02:55 |
coleys | R_YoYo_R: Regardless he said he waas trying to get ssh to work, didn't mention vnc, but it would be good for him to know. | 02:56 |
zealiod | raylu: yes | 02:56 |
raylu | zealiod: then i have no idea | 02:56 |
joakimk | Could it be that the hotel's connection thing (what's this called, a proxy? a gateway?) only works in XP? After buying access, I would think eth0 would provide me with access also in Linux... | 02:57 |
tafsen | How come ubuntu don't remember the changes I do in NVIDIA settings when I restart? | 02:58 |
coleys | joakimk: How are you connecting? Wireless or wired? And... I Would assume y | 02:58 |
coleys | joakimk: How are you connecting? Wireless or wired? And... I Would assume it would be considered a gateway. | 02:58 |
b0w | hellooo, to run quake3 i have to install wine? | 02:58 |
joakimk | coleys: I'm on a wired connection | 02:59 |
raylu | tafsen: known bug, i think | 02:59 |
rdw200169 | tafsen, b/c you have to tell the application to apply changes to your xorg.conf file | 02:59 |
coleys | joakimk: OPen up a web browser? | 02:59 |
coleys | joakimk: Does a hotel message get displayed? | 02:59 |
jv1 | legend2440: I appreciate you wanting to hel me but I am having problmes no to connect too so I just reinstall | 02:59 |
tafsen | rdw200169: then I only get a error "can't create backup file" | 02:59 |
joakimk | coleys: in Ubuntu, the "ethernet" menu (top of screen) says I'm connected to "eth0" | 02:59 |
rdw200169 | tafsen, i.e. 'Save to X Configuration File' | 02:59 |
legend2440 | jv1: ok good luck | 02:59 |
joakimk | coleys: I've tried -- Firefox only shows the "connection error" page | 02:59 |
rdw200169 | tafsen, will it let you continue anyway? | 02:59 |
jv1 | tx | 02:59 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Ask the desk clerk. But you should be able to tell... Can't you? | 03:00 |
joakimk | joakimk: Right now, I'm back in XP | 03:00 |
coleys | joakimk: have you tried calling front desk to see if there is anything specific you need to do? | 03:00 |
tafsen | rdw200169: nope | 03:00 |
rdw200169 | tafsen, you may have to run the application as root, i.e. in the terminal type "sudo nvidia-settings" | 03:00 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Are you getting any IP information at all? | 03:00 |
joakimk | usr13_: tell? how do you mean? :) | 03:00 |
licul | good morning | 03:00 |
joakimk | coleys: I will call them, but I thought I'd give this a try first. I'm in Seoul, so there will be a language challenge, too ;) | 03:00 |
joakimk | usr13_: How can I find the IP info? | 03:01 |
raylu | joakimk, coleys, usr13_: call the front desk with "hey, networkmanager says i'm connected but..." and your response is not going to be helpful | 03:01 |
coleys | joakimk: sudo ifconfig And see if your given ips and such. | 03:01 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Well, look at what you have now, the connection with XP - How it was initiated, what IP information you got from the dhcp server, etc.. | 03:01 |
raylu | coleys: no need to sudo there | 03:01 |
joakimk | raylu: hehe :) | 03:01 |
usr13_ | And then try and connect with linux and see what you get. | 03:01 |
coleys | raylu: Wah, im use to other systems that do require sudo =P my bad. | 03:01 |
usr13_ | joakimk: And then try and connect with linux and see what you get. | 03:01 |
joakimk | coleys: only thing is, I then have to boot back into Ubuntu :-/ | 03:01 |
raylu | coleys: some other systems don't have sbin in users' paths, but they still don't require sudo for ifconfig | 03:01 |
bobzillion | what file is responsible for the boot selection menu on the live CD? And can it be altered to point to a USB device as a choice? | 03:02 |
rdw200169 | joakimk, don't worry about it, almost all Koreans speak English now, you just have to understand that the accent is really strong, and that you need to talk relatively slowly and clearly | 03:02 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Boot in linux and see what happens, look at ipconfig etc.. | 03:02 |
joakimk | usr13_: Yes, but how do I find this info in XP? | 03:02 |
coleys | raylu: Well im telling you right now, that some other sytems just display "Command not found" if you don't run as root. =P | 03:02 |
raylu | coleys: and, like i said, that's because sbin isn't in your path but it's in root's | 03:02 |
usr13_ | joakimk: In the control panel you should see network connections. Or you can go to the command line and do ipconfig -a | 03:03 |
coleys | raylu: Anyways ,better safe then sorry =) Sudo doesn't harm. | 03:03 |
usr13_ | joakimk: or is it ipconfig /all ? | 03:03 |
joakimk | rdw200169: Yes, this is my experience, too. It's more to do with the linux/network stuff :) | 03:03 |
raylu | coleys: i beg to differ | 03:03 |
coleys | joakimk: in XP... run--> cmd --> ipconfig\all | 03:03 |
raylu | coleys: the better safe than sorry approach is to just run /sbin/ifconfig | 03:03 |
raylu | coleys: ipconfig /all, iirc | 03:03 |
coleys | eh I dont think there is a space. | 03:04 |
raylu | there certainly is a space | 03:04 |
joakimk | usr13_: Hmm.. Can I somehow type the address (IP) of the hotel's start page? | 03:04 |
crxyem | yup ipconfig /all | 03:04 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Yes, click Start > Run > cmd | 03:04 |
crxyem | certainly a space | 03:04 |
joakimk | usr13_: using this info from XP? | 03:04 |
raylu | 20:47:09 salam> i don' tunderstand english | 03:04 |
crxyem | i'm using 8.10 and have pre-releases turned on in my repo's, I can't seem to do a dist upgrade to 9.04 | 03:04 |
coleys | joakimk: start --> Run --> Cmd --> ipconfig\all | 03:04 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Yes, go to the command line and see what you have. | 03:05 |
joakimk | usr13_: maybe I should paste this? | 03:05 |
coleys | That will display your ip aswell as gateway/dns information. | 03:05 |
joakimk | :) | 03:05 |
b0w | hellooo, to run quake3 i have to install wine? | 03:05 |
usr13_ | joakimk: give command ipconfig /all | 03:05 |
crxyem | ^concur | 03:05 |
joakimk | usr13_;: what's the preferred bin here? | 03:05 |
Helen_McCall | Can anyone help me reset my keychain password? I changed my administrator password but it didn't change the keychain. I also tried rm ~/.gnome2/keyrings/default.keyring which removed the default.keyring file but when i restarted my computer it tried to connect to WiFi and asked me for the same password again | 03:05 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Start > Run > cmd | 03:06 |
joakimk | usr13_: no, that's fine :) I mean, where should I paste? :) | 03:06 |

RequinB4 | swetha: compiz | 03:07 |
BingO | Rsync command can update chagned files to new server but when i delete andy file at source server then why did it also not delted from destination server ??? | 03:07 |
swetha | i am trying in preferences but i cannot make it | 03:07 |
joakimk | usr13_: http://pastebin.ca/1477957 | 03:07 |
swetha | yes i have compiz running | 03:07 |
raylu | BingO: --delete | 03:07 |
RequinB4 | swetha: ok, go to the compiz manager and then click on general options | 03:08 |
BingO | raylu: what this delete do can you explain.. i think its also dangerious ? | 03:08 |
raylu | BingO: run your rsync command but add -n --delete | 03:08 |
raylu | BingO: it will show you what files it intends to delete | 03:08 |
Khisanth | hmm is it just me or is packages.ubuntu.com's search broken? | 03:08 |
raylu | BingO: but basically, if you delete a file from src, it gets deleted from dest. | 03:08 |
bobzillion | what file is responsible for the boot selection menu on the live CD? And can it be altered to point to a USB device as a choice? | 03:09 |
RequinB4 | swetha - then go to the last tab and increase your horizontal virtual size | 03:09 |
swetha | <RequinB4>: yes i did | 03:09 |
eulalio | there is anynone of mexico? | 03:09 |
eulalio | im mexican | 03:09 |

RequinB4 | !es > eulalio | 03:09 |
ubottu | eulalio, please see my private message | 03:09 |
raylu | bobzillion: let me guess, your machine doesn't support booting off a usb drive? | 03:09 |
usr13_ | joakimk: See?> Your IP Address is 221.142.247.166 your GW is 221.142.247.230 and your DNS server is 210.94.0.73 | 03:09 |
raylu | BingO: yes. like i said, -n --delete will show you what it does | 03:10 |
raylu | BingO: -n = --dry-run | 03:10 |
eulalio | i can see it | 03:10 |
bobzillion | raylu correct, almost: I have a user who keeps asking me, and it's his machine... | 03:10 |
swetha | RequinB4:is the tab Focus & Raise Behaviour | 03:10 |

raylu | bobzillion: not easily, and i don't know how. but if you already have a livecd, why bother? | 03:10 |
RequinB4 | swetha no it should be desktop size | 03:10 |
joakimk | usr13_: Do I create a manual, new connection? | 03:11 |
BingO | raylu: ok thankZz.. what is --delete-exclude some thing like that ? | 03:11 |
raylu | !es | dks1985 | 03:11 |
ubottu | dks1985: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 03:11 |
bobzillion | raylu: this user apparently can't afford to burn a cd for each distro he wants to try | 03:11 |
BingO | joakmik: what was your prob ? | 03:12 |
raylu | BingO: that's if you choose to --exclude some things too | 03:12 |
usr13_ | joakimk: Now just boot to linux and look at the output of ifconfig, you should see something similar, if not run sudo dhclient, if that doesn't work just put the info in manually. But if you get ip info just point your browser to google.com and hit enter a couple times and it might take you to some login screen where you put in your email address ... etc. | 03:12 |

dks1985 | can help me to update my ACE library pls? | 03:14 |
usr13_ | joakimk: You can creat a manual connection if need be. So if you need to... do something like: sudo ifconfig eth0 ; 221.142.247.166 ; sudo route add default gw 221.145.247.130 ; sudo cat >> nameserver 201.142.247.130 | 03:14 |

RequinB4 | bobzillion: if s/he just wants to test them out, a free virtual machine is best you can just boot the iso without a cd. Otherwise, there's no way around besdies having a comp that boots usb | 03:15 |

goner | I found this is a IRC log on google... Have no clue where he changed it though | 03:18 |
raylu | joakimk, usr13_: because you're running cat as root, but not writing to /etc/resolv.conf as root | 03:19 |
joakimk | raylu: So, what do I type if I already am assigned an IP, then? | 03:19 |
legend2440 | bobzillion: ok | 03:19 |
raylu | jacekowski: | 03:19 |
raylu | what the. | 03:19 |
usr13_ | raylu: But, the hotel will more than likely not know that he is using a static IP because that IP info has already been given to that NIC. | 03:19 |
raylu | joakimk: no idea | 03:19 |
BingO | usr13_: thankz... if he don't ping to google after getting IP then its mean time to put DNS | 03:19 |

BingO | Usr13_: yeZ | 03:26 |
rww | snowy: wireshark, tcpdump, netstat, probably others | 03:26 |
crxyem | rww: yeah but for some reason, if I cat /etc/issue it lists 8.10, and an about KDE shows KDE3.5.10 | 03:26 |
snowy | netstat doesnt say which program made the connection | 03:27 |
snowy | do tcpdump and wireshark? | 03:27 |

M4d3L | hi. any equivalent to dxdiag for ubuntu? | 03:28 |
rww | crxyem: I'd probably try the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/JauntyUpgrades and see if it offers a distribution upgrade to you. | 03:29 |
RequinB4 | Blatz: np. as for the difference, when in doubt, blame, in order, tradition, then a witty pun | 03:29 |
M4d3L | or can I run dxdiag with wine? | 03:29 |
raylu | M4d3L: there is no directx support in ubuntu, but there's xdpyinfo and a host of other utilities. also, /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 03:29 |
usr13_ | M4d3L: whawt is dxdiag? | 03:29 |
crxyem | hmmm, somethings odd then, I do have pre-releases turned on in my repos, and KDE is definetly not 3.5, as it is using the dashboard w/ widgets | 03:29 |
Blatz | RequinB4: lol thanks | 03:29 |
crxyem | I'll give it a go | 03:29 |
raylu | snowy: netstat -p | 03:30 |
snowy | rww: netstat doesnt say which program made the connection, do wireshark and tcpdump? | 03:30 |
ctmjr | crxyem: you can also try sudo update-manager -d and see what it tells you | 03:31 |
raylu | snowy: -ntp is more likely to be helpful | 03:31 |
rww | snowy: Not sure. The only time I've needed to filter by program name was when figuring out what was using all my bandwidth, and I used the "nethogs" program for that. | 03:31 |
snowy | ah, netstat -ntp seems to be what I need :) | 03:33 |

raylu | flanders: on my system, i don't have ubuntu-desktop installed because i wanted to get rid of cups | 03:45 |
therussianjig | if I try to boot my laptop while not connected to a power source, I must hold the spacebar down, or the boot will hang, any ideas how to fix this? | 03:45 |

flanders | *system | 03:45 |
Guest27971 | quit() | 03:46 |
flanders | Not ubuntu-desktop, raylu. ubuntu-netbook-remix package. | 03:46 |
raylu | flanders: the only downside to removing the main virtual package is that if they think you need some new packages, they'll update the virtual package and your system won't pull them in automatically | 03:46 |
raylu | flanders: i know, but it's the same thing | 03:46 |
usr13_ | freedumMan: Or you could test and see if it happens imediately or if it happens after a reboot or what. | 03:46 |
BingO | back.. | 03:46 |
flanders | raylu, what do you mean? When updates are available, the virtual package will reinstall itself, along with its dependencies? | 03:47 |
freedumMan | usr13_, its happening when i ftp it, i checked | 03:47 |
raylu | flanders: no, when updates to your individual packages are available, you'll still get them, but | 03:47 |
raylu | flanders: if new packages are added as depdencies to ubuntu-netbook-remix, you won't | 03:47 |
BingO | FreedumMan: whats the problem .. ? | 03:47 |
raylu | flanders: it doesn't happen often, though, and it's unlikely that they'll be anything major. you can always see what you're missing with "aptitude -s install ubuntu-netbook-remix" | 03:48 |
flanders | Hmmmm. | 03:48 |
Blatz | raylu: Its asking for my pass, so it looks like it got through. | 03:48 |
raylu | flanders: my main concern is that removing the pulseaudio packages doesn't actually remove pulseaudio | 03:48 |
flanders | So what would an alternative be, raylu? | 03:48 |
raylu | Blatz: then perhaps we are doing something wrong with sftp | 03:48 |

cabrey | flanders, why do you want to remove pulseaudio? | 03:49 |
BingO | hmm.. | 03:50 |
usr13_ | freedumMan: You may need to designate in the config file, like: local_umask=022 or anon_umask=022 | 03:50 |

vinoman | in xfce, how to icons for quick launch programs on the upper toolbar? | 03:55 |
freedumMan | BingO, umm it's used to subtract permission bit masks on local umask | 03:55 |
flanders | Same here. | 03:55 |
flanders | KDE or GNOME? | 03:55 |
usr13_ | pie-not-high: There may be newer drivers from intel, check and see. | 03:55 |
cabrey | flanders, removing/disabling PA will not give you better battery life, disabling compiz, however, will | 03:55 |
Blatz | raylu: There is no config file in that dir, only "know_hosts" | 03:55 |
raylu | Blatz: yup. create it | 03:55 |
vinoman | excuse me. how to add icons to upper toolbar? | 03:55 |
flanders | cabrey: Already disable compiz. | 03:55 |
Blatz | ok | 03:55 |
cabrey | flanders, i'm on a netbook with a 3 cell battery | 03:55 |
vinoman | in XFCE | 03:55 |
BingO | Blatz: whats the problem ? | 03:55 |
lufis | Having some trouble with nfs. Can someone take a look? sudo mount -t nfs 10.0.0.3:/media/disk /home/sam/hdd | 03:55 |
lufis | ... I get "mount: Wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock [etc.]" | 03:55 |
flanders | cabrey: I suppse you're right. I'll just leave pulseaudio running. | 03:55 |
freedumMan | BingO, i wonder if vsftpd is not using my config file? | 03:56 |
hirajo | Ive screwed up my firefox flash video codec... What do I do to fix it.. It only shows a little black stripe of the movie | 03:56 |
flanders | cabrey: How many hours do you get from a full charge? | 03:56 |
cabrey | flanders, ~3 - 3.5 | 03:56 |
lufis | hirajo: why do you think you "screwed it up"? | 03:56 |
flanders | On a 3-cell? Are you serious? | 03:56 |
BingO | FreeduMan : how ?.. whic version r u using of Ubuntu ? | 03:56 |
cabrey | flanders, use a lightweight web browser like chromium or epiphany | 03:56 |
Blatz | raylu: restart ssh? | 03:56 |
notdarkyet | have you guys ever heard of an error where the filesystem will suddenly go read-only for all files? | 03:57 |
freedumMan | BingO, 8.10 | 03:57 |
Blatz | BingO: I can't connect to sftp through a non standart port. | 03:57 |
BingO | FreedumMan: your config files means ?.. you r not editing vsftpd.conf ? | 03:57 |
flanders | cabrey: On IDLE, with wireless turned off, with laptop mode running, the MOST I can get is 2:40 to 2:50 hours, never touching the mouse or keyboard! | 03:57 |
flanders | Before doing these tweaks, I could only get TWO hours, tops, same conditions. | 03:57 |
freedumMan | BingO, im sorry im not sure what your saying your config file means... | 03:58 |
BingO | Blatz: which port you set in SSHD_config file except 22 ? | 03:58 |
flanders | cabrey: Which netbook do you have? | 03:58 |
cabrey | flanders, ouch... maybe because power management in the kernel is better for eee pcs? | 03:58 |
raylu | Blatz: er, no. this is locally, not on the server | 03:58 |
flanders | That's Asus, eh? | 03:58 |
cabrey | yup | 03:58 |
raylu | Blatz: just run "ssh 192.168.0.30" | 03:58 |
BingO | freedumMan: ok leav it, did you put 0755 in local_umask ? | 03:58 |
flanders | Well, damn. | 03:58 |
cabrey | flanders, try crunchbang or even arch :/ | 03:59 |
usr13_ | pie-not-high: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2009-April/045117.html | 03:59 |
flanders | cabrey: I read a review about the MSI Wind u100, and as wonderful as it is (well-built, good specs, and full Ubuntu compatibility) it's 3-cell battery is weaker than comparable netbook 3-cell batteries. | 03:59 |
freedumMan | yes no luck | 03:59 |
flanders | cabrey: But it will be the same kernel. | 03:59 |
cabrey | flanders, you could try the array.org netbook kernel | 04:00 |
the9a3eedi | Hi. Is the tracker indexer running by default in Ubuntu 9.04? and if so, how can I use it? I can't find any indexing options in the System menu. | 04:00 |
notdarkyet | suddenly my system went read only and I cant do much of anything. Have you guys heard of this before? | 04:00 |
Blatz | BingO: 23 raylu: Ok, I did it on the server, let me try on client machine | 04:00 |
mazda01 | anyone have Imaging-1.1.6.tar.gz? I am trying to run a script that saves all the album covers from amarok onto my computer. i need that tar ball and effbot.org is down right now. | 04:00 |
raylu | Blatz: doing it on the server will have no effect whatsoever | 04:00 |
notdarkyet | anyone? | 04:01 |
raylu | notdarkyet: and gui-less? | 04:01 |
BingO | FreedumMan: local_umask=0755 ? in vsftpd.conf | 04:01 |
Pici | mazda01: python-imaging? | 04:01 |
freedumMan | BingO, yea | 04:01 |
usr13_ | notdarkyet: read-only? | 04:01 |
flanders | cabrey: No MSI Wind support? | 04:01 |
Blatz | raylu: sorry, I'm tired. :P | 04:01 |
eikenberry | Anyone know of a technical description of the differences between debian and ubuntu? Things like the init system and such. | 04:01 |
notdarkyet | raylu: no but i cannot open anything at all | 04:01 |
flanders | It lists MSI Wind on the front page, cabrey. But not in the install or support pages. | 04:01 |
raylu | eikenberry: debian supports like a billion architectures | 04:01 |
usr13_ | notdarkyet: df | 04:01 |
cabrey | flanders, http://array.org/ubuntu/ MSI Wind is listed | 04:02 |
legend2440 | mazda01: http://code.google.com/p/savory/downloads/detail?name=Imaging-1.1.6.tar.gz&can=2&q= | 04:02 |
cabrey | flanders, he doesnt have time to maintain those pages | 04:02 |
notdarkyet | raylu: suddenly all of the files in my user path are read only | 04:02 |
raylu | eikenberry: and their packages in stable are a lot older than ours, in general | 04:02 |
Blatz | raylu: Ok, with no port rule it connects through ssh | 04:02 |
BingO | fredumMan: restart vsftpd and check which permission it give to new upload file.. | 04:02 |
cabrey | flanders, just dont use the -eeepc kernel | 04:02 |
eikenberry | raylu. I know. I'm a long time debian user (10+ years). | 04:02 |
raylu | Blatz: and no user either, right? | 04:02 |
Pici | raylu: We sync our packages from debian unstable/experimental generally. | 04:02 |
raylu | eikenberry: oh | 04:02 |
eikenberry | raylu. I know how most of the internals of debian work. I know ubuntu does some things differently (like system init). | 04:03 |
Blatz | raylu: right | 04:03 |
usr13_ | notdarkyet: "user path"? | 04:03 |
eikenberry | I was wondering if there was some docs on these differences. | 04:03 |
notdarkyet | /home/user | 04:03 |
BingO | blatz: ssh -p 23 localhost | 04:03 |
flanders | Use the generic netbook kernel? | 04:03 |
cabrey | flanders, yea | 04:03 |
raylu | BingO: http://pastebin.com/m1970bf0e | 04:03 |
usr13_ | notdarkyet: what does df tell you? | 04:03 |
notdarkyet | I cannot even open the terminal | 04:03 |
Pici | eikenberry: Have you read this yet? http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/debian | 04:03 |
Blatz | raylu: ok that work-around worked. :) | 04:04 |
cabrey | notdarkyet, run an fsck | 04:04 |
usr13_ | notdarkyet: Ctrl-Alt-F6 | 04:04 |
raylu | Blatz: for sftp? | 04:04 |
Phrogz | I installed server 9.04 and I guess I chose LAMP for apache, but now I decided to go with nginx. Can I just uninstall the lamp-server "unrecognized task" in aptitude and come out smelling clean? | 04:04 |
eikenberry | Pici. yes. | 04:04 |
Blatz | BingO: ssh was figured out. sftp was not, but raylu helped me with a workaround | 04:04 |
notdarkyet | I am gonna restart, be back if I still have a problem | 04:04 |
Blatz | raylu: yes sftp works now, thanks | 04:04 |
eikenberry | Pici. It is more community/philosophical than technical. | 04:04 |
flanders | cabrey: This will not affect any off my updates? | 04:04 |
flanders | *of | 04:04 |
raylu | Phrogz: unrecognized task? | 04:05 |
raylu | Blatz: np. i suggest reporting a bug | 04:05 |
cabrey | flanders, no, you will be using a non-ubuntu kernel (just derived from ubuntu) | 04:05 |
eikenberry | Just a list of the big differences would suffice. I know about the different init systems. Are there any other big differences? | 04:05 |
Blatz | raylu: ok, I'll look into it. It would be with sftp, correct? | 04:05 |
raylu | Blatz: probably... i don't think it has its own package/bug tracker | 04:06 |
flanders | Roger. Thanks for all of your help, cabrey. I'm going to give this a shot. | 04:06 |
Phrogz | raylu - aptitude shows me 395 installed packages, 26444 not installed, 2604 "virtual packages", and 13044 "tasks", which are all in a subcategory "unrecognized tasks" | 04:06 |
raylu | Phrogz: oh, you're actually using the aptitude ncurses interface? | 04:06 |
flanders | It can't hurt, since if anything goes wrong, I'll just format and start from new. (I only have some documents and PDFs saved on here. Nothing else. A backup to USB stick will do fine.) | 04:06 |
Phrogz | raylu - yeah | 04:07 |
Blatz | raylu: humm, ok | 04:07 |
flanders | Thanks a ton, cabrey, and everyone else that helped. | 04:07 |
cabrey | flanders, you dont even need to do that, just choose the normal kernel instead at bootup | 04:07 |
BingO | blatz: sftp -Port=23 datz@192.168.0.30 | 04:07 |
flanders | Oh. | 04:07 |
BingO | blatz: sftp -oPort=23 datz@192.168.0.30 | 04:07 |
flanders | I always wondered how that worked. | 04:07 |
flanders | When you boot up with a different kernel, nothing changes, aside from the kernel you're using? You don't get reverted back to older software or packages? | 04:08 |
raylu | Phrogz: i'd suggest aptitude -s purge lamp-server | 04:08 |
Blatz | BingO I had tried "sftp datz@192.168.0.30 -oPort=23" that didn't work | 04:09 |
Phrogz | raylu - thanks, I'll check that out. | 04:09 |
cabrey | flanders, nothing changes except the currently running kernel | 04:09 |
crdlb | flanders: just the kernel | 04:09 |
bullgard4 | '~$ ekiga -d 4 > ~/tmp/ekiga.log20090629' obtained a log of 0 bytes length because I terminated this command using the 'Ctrl+C' command. How to end it properly for a meaningful log contents? | 04:09 |
flanders | And what about security updates? Aren't they kernel-dependent? | 04:09 |
raylu | flanders: some of the packages are modules that depend on the kernel, so which ones get loaded change. but the rest of your software, no | 04:09 |
cabrey | flanders, not necessarily | 04:10 |
flanders | Alright. | 04:10 |
flanders | Well, thanks again guys. Going to give this a try. | 04:10 |
flanders | I am holding all of you liable! I will sue for any and all damages done by this! | 04:10 |
flanders | I'll see you in court! | 04:10 |
cabrey | ok | 04:10 |
flanders | lol | 04:10 |
Phrogz | raylu - Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "lamp-server"; and then it only says it will get rid of python-pkg-resources{u} python-setuptools{u} | 04:11 |
flanders | But seriously, thanks. This is something I've been searching for, espcially for my new netbook. | 04:11 |
flanders | Take care, all. | 04:11 |
BingO | hmm.. | 04:11 |
BingO | Blatz.. wat about SCP .. did you check that ? hmm if SSH was working that SCP should work well | 04:12 |
raylu | Phrogz: i don't really understand tasks, but tasksel may help you. i always install my software with just aptitude, so i don't really understand what installing a lamp-server did | 04:12 |
raylu | BingO: it did | 04:12 |
Phrogz | raylu - alright, thanks for the help | 04:12 |
NY_163 | ha | 04:12 |

supreme | im trying to find a solution unsuccessfully | 04:53 |
cabrey | supreme, submit a bug report, that is a traceback | 04:53 |
Gnea | supreme: how are you running synaptic? from a menu? | 04:55 |
raylu | jaypro: also, why do you need ftp? | 04:55 |
supreme | do i report a bug with "ubuntu-bug synaptic" right? | 04:55 |
freedumMan | is it possible to make a jailed ssh upload with certain chmod permissions | 04:55 |
stroyan | supreme: That looks a lot like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/364092 | 04:55 |
cabrey | supreme, already submitted go and add yourself to the people affected | 04:56 |

bullgard4 | '~$ ekiga -d 4 > ~/tmp/ekiga.log20090629' obtained a log of 0 bytes length because I terminated this command using the 'Ctrl+C' command. How to end it properly for a log content >0? | 04:57 |
jaypro | raylu: why? just for the basic reasons why anyone would want an ftp server... transfer files | 04:57 |
tntc | hey, what package contains the actual drivers for sound? | 04:58 |
tntc | the snd-hda-intel driver specifically | 04:58 |
raylu | jaypro: but ftp is insecure. passwords are transmitted in cleartext | 04:58 |
raylu | jaypro: consider scp/sftp | 04:58 |
Dday | How do i check if my songbird is a .deb? | 04:58 |
jaypro | raylu oh i read someplace scp is not that great for transferring multiple files at once... that not true? | 04:59 |
raylu | jaypro: m...not that i know of. i use it all the time | 05:00 |
dragon_ | jaypro: i strongly doubt that statement. | 05:00 |
dragon_ | jaypro: i'd prefer rsync though. | 05:00 |
raylu | jaypro: on my lan, i use ftp because it's a bit faster and i'm not worried about security internally | 05:00 |
jaypro | hrmm... | 05:00 |
zx6renvy | hey everyone | 05:00 |
brokenframe | hey, does someone know of any easy-to-use program to set up an ssh server? | 05:00 |
jaypro | well, also i need to deal with macs and windows... so that kind throws out scp anyways | 05:00 |
dragon_ | brokenframe: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 05:01 |
mobi-sheep | !ssh | brokenframe | 05:01 |
ubottu | brokenframe: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. Putty is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 05:01 |
jaypro | unless you guys know of a program that would work | 05:01 |
brokenframe | !ssh | 05:01 |
zx6renvy | couldnt tell ya jaypro, never needed to do that | 05:01 |
brokenframe | hm | 05:01 |
bastidrazor | jaypro, ssh for mac and winscp for windows | 05:01 |
brokenframe | k that was fast, thanks | 05:02 |
dragon_ | jaypro: there is an ssh server for windows called WinSSHD. Check out the bitvise tunnelier's website for details. | 05:02 |

Mitsunari | Let's pose this question here as well... I recently (read: last night) installed Ubuntu Studio on my Parckard Bell Easynote r4350. Everything else seems to be in order, except for the volume control hotkeys. Pressing once seems to get them stuck, ie. firing off continuously. In addition, this makes me unable to click anything on the gui itself, including the start-menu. However, the buttons work on launched programs such as Pidgin or Mo | 05:03 |
dragon_ | haha parker actually believed what i said. | 05:03 |
raylu | jaypro: also, filezilla for windows | 05:03 |
raylu | jaypro: and psftp/pscp | 05:03 |
dragon_ | !volume | 05:03 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about volume | 05:03 |
dragon_ | err | 05:04 |
Mitsunari | !volume | 05:04 |
jaypro | oh wow! okay cool... thanks everyone | 05:04 |
dragon_ | !hotkeys | Mitsunari | 05:04 |
ubottu | Mitsunari: Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 05:04 |
LargePrime | Greetings. Got a strange Problem. Firefox spell checker is the issue. Upon a misspelled word, If the right click KEY is pressed FF does not suggest a word. If the MOUSE is Right Clicked on the word, it suggests a word. The FF guys are wondering if it is a "Ubuntu Customization" Issue. Any Ideas? | 05:04 |
raylu | LargePrime: right-click key? the thing between right-alt and right-ctrl? | 05:05 |
zx6renvy | what version do you have? | 05:05 |
dragon_ | LargePrime: possibly Ubuntu isn't firing an event that would have been fired otherwise. | 05:05 |
dragon_ | LargePrime: tried disabling "Ubuntu Modification Pack" plugin in Firefox? | 05:05 |
LargePrime | raylu: yep zx6renvy 8.10 dragon_ I will now | 05:06 |

SirMoo | Mmkay, package manager closed and I'm still getting it. | 05:11 |

LargePrime | heh | 05:11 |
LargePrime | F guys blame Ubuntu | 05:11 |
raylu | LargePrime: ...obviously. the issue is that the menu key opens the menu for the ui element that currently has focus, which is a textbox | 05:11 |
SirMoo | How do I tell the java install to stop, I've tried restarting, but that achived nothing. | 05:11 |
LargePrime | not the word | 05:11 |
raylu | LargePrime: which is completely working as intended. the menu key is not a replacement for right-click | 05:11 |

stroyan | sdeb: I just build packages that I want to tweak or debug. I haven't tried rebuilding every single package. Why would you want to? | 05:18 |
SirMoo | Raylu, How? I've restarted my computer twice since then. | 05:18 |
raylu | SirMoo: then apt-get wouldn't be running | 05:18 |
raylu | SirMoo: or, at least, the apt-get that you ran two restarts ago wouldn't | 05:18 |
SirMoo | Yes, but now I can't install anything. D= | 05:18 |
bullgard4 | sdeb: You cannot have every detail "under control" in Linux because your livespan will not extend over 100 years. Try to focus on the important things and not on every detail. | 05:18 |

raylu | SirMoo: yes, but figure out why apt-get is running now | 05:19 |
SirMoo | Raylu, thats why I'm confused. It should not be running... and no windows are open other then the terminal. | 05:19 |
sdeb | bullgard4: you right , but i will enjoy for that :) | 05:19 |
bullgard4 | sdeb: s/livespan/lifespan/ | 05:19 |

SirMoo | Yup. Still running, Raylu. | 05:21 |
raylu | SirMoo: i suppose you could just "sudo kill 3848" | 05:21 |
cirabisi | lol | 05:21 |
SirMoo | I shall try. | 05:21 |
cirabisi | well i want to make a usb startup/boot disc but i dont have a live cd, i used wubi, and i dont know where to find the .iso, im in xubuntu | 05:22 |
sdeb | ok , another question , anaconda is powerfull installer , why ubuntu is not use it ? | 05:22 |
SirMoo | This all came from trying to install sun-java. It would not allow me to do anything after, and just had a liscnese and said OK at the bottom. | 05:22 |
raylu | SirMoo: you have to use the arrow keys or tab to accept it | 05:22 |
bazhang | sdeb, a good question for #ubuntu-offtopic | 05:22 |
raylu | SirMoo: there was a bug in older versions of ubuntu that didn't allow the user to accept it, but it's been fixed since then | 05:23 |
cirabisi | . | 05:23 |
SirMoo | This is the most modern version of Kubuntu. | 05:23 |
cirabisi | ??? | 05:24 |
raylu | cirabisi: wait, what does being on wubi have to do with this? if you haven't yet downloaded an iso, i suggest getting yourself a copy of unetbootin and proceeding from there | 05:24 |
unitheory | cirabisi, you need either an .iso or a livecd | 05:24 |
cirabisi | ok. | 05:24 |
sdeb | bazhang: this not off topic , | 05:24 |
cirabisi | is this only for help? just curious, got on cuz im bored and wanted to talk :P | 05:25 |

raylu | AceBlade159: could you be more specific? | 05:26 |
sdeb | AceBlade159: parted is more friendly : sudo parted -l /dev/sda | 05:26 |
AceBlade159 | raylu: Applications > Accessories > Terminal | 05:27 |
AceBlade159 | sdeb: i'll try that thanks | 05:27 |

AceBlade159 | sdb: response 'Usage: parted [hlmsv] [DEVICE [COMMAND [PARAMETERS]]...]' | 05:29 |
unitheory | bReakmYfaLL, only major bug fixes or security updates are added to the repos. otherwise you have to wait for the next ubuntu release | 05:30 |
lstarnes | bReakmYfaLL: it should be there in 9.10 | 05:30 |
sdeb | AceBlade159: sudo parted -l | 05:30 |

bReakmYfaLL | But i have GLIB | 05:31 |
lstarnes | bReakmYfaLL: but not the -dev packages | 05:31 |

ctmjr | AceBlade159: looking at what you ran "sudo fdisk -l you need to remove the " from in front off sudo | 05:32 |

AceBlade159 | any special drivers i have to load for my chipset? (nVidia NF4Ultra) | 05:35 |
bReakmYfaLL | for the latest version 0.8.13? | 05:35 |
ctmjr | reduz yes go to their web site they have a how to | 05:35 |
lstarnes | bReakmYfaLL: or at least the version in the repos | 05:35 |
lstarnes | bReakmYfaLL: the dependencies for 0.8.13 are probably the same or similar to 0.8.12 | 05:35 |
reduz | ctmjr, but does it work? | 05:35 |
stroyan | bReakmYfaLL: The dependency data is for the version in the repos. But it probably has not changed in the next version. | 05:35 |

pvh_sa | heya... i've got an ubuntu 9.04 machine that keeps rebooting spontaneously but seemingly only when transmission is running. nothing in the logs - is there some way i can get a crash dump or something so i know why its rebooting? | 05:36 |
ctmjr | reduz: it works for me on intrepid with intel on board sound you need to check the compatibility list | 05:37 |
sdeb | bazhang: are kidding me , check output : http://pastebin.com/d366c59d0 | 05:37 |
largeprime | hey | 05:37 |
unitheory | pvh_sa, transmission is rather lacking in features, is using another bittorrent client an option? | 05:39 |
pvh_sa | unitheory, i really don't think the bittorrent client is the source of my reboots - its triggering something else which is causing kernel panics... just want to know if there is some kind of "crash dump saving" feature in linux/ubuntu | 05:40 |

rww | !startup | flanders | 05:42 |
ubottu | flanders: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 05:42 |
Galaxor | So, I've just moved to Jaunty. For some reason now, my wireless doesn't work unless the network-manager is running. Which means I can't get on the internet when X11 isn't running. I do all the things I used to do: iwconfig wlan0 essid blah, dhclient wlan0. iwconfig always says that it's "Not Associated" with the AP, and the log always says "associated" then "disassociated by local choice (reason=3)" immediately. | 05:43 |
flanders | ubottu: I want it to start before a user logs into a session. | 05:43 |
ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:43 |
Galaxor | What happened? | 05:43 |
rww | !boot | flanders | 05:43 |
ubottu | flanders: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 05:43 |

Daskreech | aaqil: gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 05:49 |
flanders | I ask this because I do not need the hard drive running while I am reading documents or PDFs, but I use the mouse to scroll the pages. | 05:49 |
unitheory | aaqil, if you don't know how to edit configuration files you should use startupmanager instead | 05:50 |
Daskreech | flanders: You probably want it running then | 05:50 |
aaqil | unitheory, where is that startupmanager in my xfce | 05:50 |
flanders | But the document is loaded into memory, Daskreech. | 05:50 |
Daskreech | Yes but some of the memory is on the hard rive | 05:51 |
unitheory | aaqil, you have to install it | 05:51 |
flanders | Regardless, do you know of a way to keep the drive asleep, even while using the mouse/keyboard? | 05:51 |
aaqil | ok i install with sudo apt-get install startupmanager | 05:51 |
Daskreech | Not off hand since it's generally a bad idea but I suppose you could just set very restrictive as in 150 ms sleep times | 05:51 |

rootlinuxusr | gnash or adobe flash? | 06:06 |
test-sheep | Panoramix: Adobe Flash 10? | 06:06 |

unitheory | Panoramix, adobe flash 10 | 06:06 |
myxo | test-sheep alritey. are there any commands i need to run on a fresh ubuntu installation? the computer I'm currently using is the first install i've ever done, his will be my second. | 06:06 |
test-sheep | "What? Omg. *nix can run Adobe Flash? O rly? Yes rly!" | 06:07 |
Panoramix | u know... Program for creating swf :) | 06:07 |
Daskreech | Anyone wants to help unbork an nvidia attack? | 06:07 |
Daskreech | Panoramix: Ah That's different. Probably the same answer though | 06:07 |
WIGGMPk | ha.... unbork | 06:07 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Same error | 06:08 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: Updated + Upgrade already? | 06:08 |
Daskreech | Spherous: is there a stage1 in that directory ? | 06:08 |
Panoramix | So, is there any adobe flash ubuntu? | 06:08 |
AceBlade159 | Daskreech: what do you mean "unbork an nvidia attack: ? | 06:08 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Not that I can see | 06:08 |
Xuzz | I'm on a GMA950 with a max canvas size of 2048x2028 (for acceleration)...and I have my two monitors (on a laptop, one is the built in screen one is VGA) positioned "top-of" each other (in xrandr, they are side by side physically). I want to make them appear to X stacked on top (to fit in the max canvas size for compiz) but be able to use them as if they were positioned side by side in xrandr (isntead of having to have the mouse go off the top of the screen t | 06:09 |
Xuzz | o switch) | 06:09 |
Daskreech | AceBlade159: nvidia drivers are stopping X from starting. I want help it undo that and get the drivers working | 06:09 |
WIGGMPk | AceBlade159: use your imagination.. Daskreech: did you try running the nvidia updater for xorg.. I think its nvidia-xconfig? | 06:09 |
anathematic | any recommendations for software to monitor my memory usage over a period of time on a ubuntu server? | 06:10 |
Daskreech | Spherous: In /boot/grub I have a file named stage1. You don't? | 06:10 |
mobi-sheep | Panoramix: You're talking about running Flash? | 06:10 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: you should prolly post your xorg.conf in pastebin | 06:10 |
Daskreech | mobi-sheep: No making flash movies | 06:10 |
AceBlade159 | Daskreech: odd, when i had an install back when i had a working ide drive i had no problm with x starting (i'm on a gts 8800) | 06:10 |
Spherous | Daskreech: It can't access /boot/grub, says theres no such file or directory | 06:11 |
Daskreech | Oh I didn't either until I installed the nvidia drivers | 06:11 |
Daskreech | Spherous: Where did you mount /dev/sda3 ? | 06:11 |
Panoramix | Running flash and creating flash | 06:11 |
Spherous | Daskreech: /media/root | 06:11 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Just like you said | 06:11 |
Daskreech | Panoramix: most likely run Adobe Flash 10 under wine | 06:11 |
mobi-sheep | Panoramix: You know ActionScript? | 06:12 |
Daskreech | Spherous: then you mounted /dev/sda1 as /media/root/boot ? | 06:12 |
Panoramix | Isnt it too heavy? | 06:12 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Correct | 06:12 |
Daskreech | Panoramix: Yes but it's a windows program what do you expect? | 06:12 |
Panoramix | I am starting to learn it | 06:13 |
Daskreech | Spherous: and under /media/root/boot/grub is there a stage1 ? | 06:13 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Yes, there is one there | 06:13 |
badboy_ | :( | 06:13 |
Daskreech | Spherous: and stage2? | 06:14 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Correct | 06:14 |
myxo | graaahhhh, darnit, why is everything always super difficult? ubuntu livedisc wouldnt work on my brohters pc.... so i ran the altdisc.... worked.... now after the ubuntu splash (pre-OS) does its little loading thing, the screen just remains blackkk...... sigh | 06:14 |
=== test-sheep is now known as leaf-sheep |
Spherous | Daskreech: Should I try sudo grub-install --root-directory=/media/root/boot /dev/sda instead of having the root-directory being /media/root | 06:14 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: http://pastebin.com/ff9a6c00 | 06:14 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: Did you enable the hardware drivers and that happened right away? | 06:15 |
Daskreech | Ermmm | 06:15 |
krabe | what does virtual rack mean? | 06:15 |
_Tristan | when I run top what does "Cpu(s): 10.5% us, 3.4% sy, 0.0% ni, 84.9% id, 1.3% wa, 0.0% hi, 0.0% si" mean? | 06:15 |
Daskreech | I think that wouldn't work but can't hurt to try | 06:15 |
myxo | mobi-sheep i haven't gotten the chance to boot into the OS yet | 06:15 |
johnnyblazen | hi i just upgraded to xp from vista lol i have 2 hdd's and when i installed xp it wiped out the grub i got the grub boot list to work again but it still shows vista on the list and i cant get it to show xp so i cant boot into windows anyone got any ideas | 06:15 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: did you just recently run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" cause your not even using the nvidia driver | 06:15 |
Daskreech | myxo: you tried safe graphics mode ? | 06:15 |
myxo | daskreech how do i go into that mode? | 06:15 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Nah, didn't work. Tried to add an extra /boot. so it was like /boot/boot lol | 06:16 |
Daskreech | _Tristan: read the manual for top | 06:16 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ubuntu-linux-how-to-reconfigure-x-windows-system-xorg-server/ | 06:16 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Crap yea but it's still not booting :( | 06:16 |
_Tristan | Daskreech: ...thats a goddamn brilliant idea >.< | 06:16 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: Second option --> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 06:16 |
tanath | i've lost sound. can anyone help? | 06:16 |
johnnyblazen | <johnnyblazen> hi i just upgraded to xp from vista lol i have 2 hdd's and when i installed xp it wiped out the grub i got the grub boot list to work again but it still shows vista on the list and i cant get it to show xp so i cant boot into windows anyone got any ideas | 06:16 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: what did you do or change before it stopped? like upgrade the kernel, reinstall the modules etc? | 06:16 |
badboy_ | all i need is audio ;( | 06:17 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: X still is on a start loop starts fails starts again 30 seconds later fails etc | 06:17 |
tanath | usually rebooting fixes is, 'cause it's some app 'hogging' the sound card, but i've rebooted twice now, and still no sound | 06:17 |
tanath | *it | 06:17 |
Daskreech | johnnyblazen: point the chainloader to XP | 06:17 |
myxo | mobi-sheep i don't understand how i'm supposed to do this on a black screen? ctrl+alt+f2? | 06:17 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Ran sudo nvidia-config | 06:17 |
Gh057hun73r | I have an OLD ATi rage pro AGP vide card, I need drivers for it, even 2D is slow to the point that dragging a small window like xchat drops frames, how do I fix the driver in ubuntu 8.04? | 06:18 |
Daskreech | !sound | badboy_ | 06:18 |
ubottu | badboy_: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 06:18 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: did you try "sudo nvidia-xconfig" | 06:18 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: CTRL + ALT + [F1-F6] -- Try that. Pick any one of those FX. | 06:18 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Yeah tha's what stopped X working | 06:18 |
tanath | i've also tried playing with everything in the Sound Prefs, but still no sound | 06:18 |
Daskreech | (I presume) | 06:18 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: note the X in "nvidia-xconfig" | 06:19 |
myxo | mobi-sheep and if it remains black and unresponsive? | 06:19 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Ah umm >_> | 06:19 |
Daskreech | no | 06:19 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: Are you online on same machine we're to configure on? | 06:19 |
Hoss | anyone know of an app to manage favorite TV channel streams? I am not looking for a frontend for a MC, but rather just an app to consolidate favorite streams. | 06:19 |
myxo | mobi-sheep no, using two laptops, i'm on mine | 06:19 |
mzer0 | hi | 06:19 |
johnnyblazen | brb im gonna reboot and give it a try | 06:19 |
mobi-sheep | myxo: Okay. It won't be unresponsive either way. It's a command. | 06:19 |
myxo | mobi-sheep this is an ASUS, had no problems like this, toshiba satellite isn't so easy | 06:20 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: Boxee / XBMC? >_> | 06:20 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: nope failed to load modules type1 freetype nvidia | 06:20 |
wapko | myxo : try to press 'esc' in grub and [e]dit the kernel line, remove quiet and splash, press enter and then b to boot with the new line, nothing is saved.. just to see what errors there are | 06:20 |
mobi-sheep | !tv | Hoss | 06:20 |
ubottu | Hoss: http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), Kaffeine, kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Me-TV (GNOME), Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out | 06:20 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: Not quite same thing. | 06:20 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: that's all kernel stuff so I might need to reboot | 06:21 |
myxo | wapko ok | 06:21 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: These seem more like media center solutions. Wouldnt either Boxee or XBMC be a bit more than what I need? | 06:21 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: restarting the x server should be the same.. as long as the module is already compiled and running... try "lsmod | grep nvidia" if its not there.. sudo modprobe nvidia | 06:22 |
dethray | Alright, ubuntu is all configured how I want it, virtualbox is on, now what else can I do for fun... :P | 06:22 |
tanath | was there a recent update that affects sound? | 06:22 |
tanath | i don't have sound anymore | 06:22 |
lstarnes | tanath: for which version of ubuntu? | 06:22 |
tanath | 9.04 | 06:22 |
WIGGMPk | dethray: fix this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dvd+rw-tools/+bug/307477 | 06:22 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: You could always use a regular web browser and use Hulu. | 06:22 |
Hoss | dethray: Try getting a Zune to work in VB. That will keep your gears spinning for a while. | 06:22 |
Gh057hun73r | need driver for Ati rage pro in 8.04 | 06:23 |
tanath | lstarnes, i've tried all kinds of things, but still no sound >.< | 06:23 |
myxo | wapko i don't see splash but i got rid of quiet | 06:23 |
dethray | Hehe | 06:23 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: fatal error nvidia not found | 06:23 |
johnnyblazen | no luck | 06:23 |
dethray | Send me a zune, I will get right on it... :P | 06:23 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: Yeah, thing is I want access through a centeral app not only to Fox. | 06:23 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: figures.. you running jaunty?? i assume your using the 180 revision of the nvidia module? | 06:23 |
Hoss | dethray: lol, I am installing VMware against my wishes to get mine to work. | 06:23 |
Daskreech | Gh057hun73r: That's should be supported by the radeon driver | 06:23 |
tanath | lstarnes, in case you missed it: ubuntu 9.04 | 06:24 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Do you think this whole "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary." message is causing the problem? | 06:24 |
Daskreech | no the 96 I was using 173 but that seemed to stop X workin ala nvidia-config | 06:24 |
myxo | wapko after the splash screen it just remains black. | 06:24 |
Daskreech | Spherous: That's quite worrying to me but I don't know enough to be vocally worried | 06:24 |
Gh057hun73r | I dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg but it didnt even ask me what driver to use, just wanted me to configure my KB.. how do I get ALL the options back? | 06:25 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: ^^^^ | 06:25 |
myxo | mobi-sheep it must not even be booting, because none of the f1-f6 did anything, just sat black. | 06:25 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: alright.. gimme a second.. you need to remove the package and reinstall it.. happened to me.. I think its a DKMS problem | 06:25 |
Daskreech | myxo: Ah you got a splash thats good | 06:25 |
TheNewGuy | hello | 06:25 |
myxo | daskreech yea, thats all i get though | 06:25 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: So go ahead and purge 96 ? | 06:25 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: You cant think of a light weight streaming manager app that I could try out? Again, I wont be streaming this feed to any other machines, it will all be viewed locally. | 06:25 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: 1 sec.. Ill get the package names for you | 06:26 |
Spherous | Daskreech: Do you think there is anyway for me to back up whats on my windows partition to my linux partition via the live cd, then grab the info I want after a reformat of my windows partition from my linux partition and repartitioning my drives to wipe linux off and give windows all 350GBs? | 06:26 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: You're talking about web-based streaming or video streaming? | 06:26 |
TheNewGuy | I got a simple question... I down loaded java... how do I install it? I using the latest Ubutu. Brand new to linux | 06:26 |
Hoss | hweb-based | 06:26 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: Web-based | 06:26 |
johnnyblazen | can anyone give me some advice i need to know how to change the grub boot loader list how do i do this | 06:26 |
wapko | myxo, k. i was hoping to get rid of the splash to see whats wrong with it. now im all out. | 06:26 |
hateball | !java | TheNewGuy | 06:26 |
ubottu | TheNewGuy: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 06:26 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: just purged dkms as well | 06:27 |
Daskreech | !java | TheNewGuy | 06:27 |
myxo | wapko there are 4 lines to choose. one begins with uuid, other with kernel, other with initrd, and last with quiet | 06:27 |
tanath | TheNewGuy, there are java packages in the official repository. you can install java from the repos via Synaptic package manager: System > Admin > Synaptic | 06:27 |
jerroome | jonnyblazen /boot/grub/menu.lst | 06:27 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: Well, VLC have this thing where you can stream the video you have. But if you're talking about watching TV shows from Internet. I'd say Hulu or something relatively close. Also, use a different (light) browser. | 06:27 |
johnnyblazen | can anyone give me some advice i need to know how to change the grub boot loader list how do i do this | 06:27 |
myxo | wapko got rid of quiet, the others didnt seem like they'd be a splash | 06:27 |
wapko | myxo. its supposed to be the kernel line | 06:27 |
R_YoYo_R | johnnyblazen, change order? | 06:27 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: Lighter than firefox? | 06:27 |
jerroome | !ask | jonnyblazen | 06:27 |
ubottu | jonnyblazen: 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. :-) | 06:27 |
tanath | can anyone help me get sound back? | 06:27 |
Daskreech | johnnyblazen: edit the menu.lst file | 06:28 |
Daskreech | !sound | tanath | 06:28 |
ubottu | tanath: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 06:28 |
tanath | something (a recent update maybe) eliminated sound on my system | 06:28 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: Yup. Using it solely for web streaming. A clean interface too. | 06:28 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: "sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx-96 nvidia-common nvidia-96-kernel-source nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-96-libvdpau" you shouldnt need to purge DKMS.. but oh well.. not sure if there is a nvidia-96-libvdpau package but its worth a shot | 06:28 |
myxo | wapko ahhh, i got it this time | 06:28 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: Have you had a chance to mess with Boxee? | 06:28 |
wapko | myxo. great. now u should be able to see where it borks | 06:29 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: done | 06:29 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: No. We spoke about this last night, didn't we? | 06:29 |
TheNewGuy | anyone know how to install java ? i down loaded it from java.com. | 06:29 |
TheNewGuy | I have it in my down load list | 06:29 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: and just install them again.. should take care of it.. let me know (restarting would be best and I think required) | 06:29 |
R_YoYo_R | TheNewGuy, !java | 06:29 |
TheNewGuy | but I have no idea what to do with it. | 06:29 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: look at what ubottu just said to you | 06:29 |
myxo | wapko i thought you might say that, but all it did was spam spam spam spam and now its black lol, no errors | 06:29 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: ah wait | 06:29 |
myxo | wapko i'm confused | 06:29 |
R_YoYo_R | !java | 06:29 |
ubottu | To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository | 06:29 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: you should prolly get rid of nvidia-settings too (although it might of went with everything else) | 06:30 |
Spherous | Does anyone think there is anyway for me to back up whats on my windows partition to my linux partition via the live cd, then grab the info I want after a reformat of my windows partition from my linux partition and repartitioning my drives to wipe linux off and give windows all 350GBs? | 06:30 |
TheNewGuy | I did... I am brand new with this... I don't even know what it is saying... sedo??? | 06:30 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: sudo | 06:30 |
R_YoYo_R | Spherous, explain it better... your explanation confuses me | 06:30 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: I thought I spoke with someone named nimja or something. Dont recall. I love what I have seen from Boxee, but it just seems provides more than what I need for a desktop machine. | 06:31 |
R_YoYo_R | Spherous, why not just partition windows too have all 350? | 06:31 |
TheNewGuy | ok, sudo, what is that? do I need it to install java? | 06:31 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: What is it exactly you're looking for? Surfing Hulu on Firefox isn't satisfactory? | 06:31 |
Spherous | R_YoYo_R: I can't seem to reinstall grub, and I need to save info from my windows partition before I reformat, plus I need info off of my linux partition after the reformat | 06:31 |
tyler_d | thats awesome TheNewGuy | 06:31 |
R_YoYo_R | Spherous, i dont get the whole transfer to linux part deal | 06:31 |
R_YoYo_R | Spherous, re-installing grub is tit .. why cant you reinstall? | 06:32 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: yeah essentially. it changes your permissions to allow you to interfere with the system. In this case by installing Java | 06:32 |
wapko | myxo. are you able to ctrl+alt+f1 while it shows the splash or scrolling text | 06:32 |
overlord | Can anyone tell me how do i convert a .flv file to .3gp ? | 06:32 |
Spherous | R_YoYo_R: I keep getting an error saying it can't read stage1 correctly. Daskreech was helping me, but couldn't figure it out | 06:32 |
myxo | wapko i can restart by forcing power off then try during scrolling text | 06:32 |
Daskreech | overlord: mencoder I'd bet | 06:33 |
overlord | Daskreech: thanks | 06:33 |
Daskreech | Spherous: which page were you following? | 06:33 |
TheNewGuy | Dask is there a linux primer on the net... one designed for beginners? | 06:33 |
wapko | myxo. maybe try the recovery mode and see if you can get in the system | 06:33 |
Spherous | Daskreech: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows?action=show&redirect=RestoreGrub | 06:33 |
R_YoYo_R | Spherous, you have to boot the live cd and reinstall it from there | 06:33 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: :-) Quite a lot but lets walk you through this. Go into your settings menu and look for synaptic | 06:34 |
Spherous | R_YoYo_R: I am booted into the live cd, if I was on my linux partition, I wouldn't have a problem, lol | 06:34 |
Hoss | myxo: Download ERD commander might be able to help you recover files. Shot in the dark. | 06:34 |

myxo | hoss whats erd commander? | 06:35 |
Spherous | R_YoYo_R: I said it o.o | 06:35 |
TheNewGuy | ok, thanks. Whwere is the settings menu? I check the system and applications | 06:35 |
Hoss | myxo: google it, its a pretty powerful recovery cd. | 06:35 |
Daskreech | Spherous: Does your /media/root/boot look like the one on that page? | 06:35 |
Spherous | Daskreech: No sir | 06:36 |
myxo | hoss well. i'm pretty sure its a hardware issue considering this install is less than 5 minutes old =( havent ever successfully booted into it | 06:36 |
Daskreech | Spherous: what's differnt? | 06:36 |
Hoss | mobi-sheep: Yeah, Hulu is nice. I just loved the demo that I seen on Boxee about all the channels ready at the fingertip. I though maybe there was a light-weight app out there that could manage channels like that without all the other bells and whistles Boxee has to offer. | 06:36 |
gogeta | heh just did my own custom ldxe ubuntu install | 06:36 |
gogeta | :) | 06:36 |

gogeta | lxde | 06:37 |
mobi-sheep | Hoss: You ever try this --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5579 | 06:37 |

Daskreech | TheNewGuy: Ok Ubuntu is run by a company called Canonical They offer support for Ubuntu you can pay for | 06:48 |
Daskreech | They have a policy of preferring opensource software | 06:49 |
Severity1 | TheNewGuy, buy books from amazon | 06:49 |
Severity1 | there are plenty of those | 06:49 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: So they have two types of software supported and open source | 06:49 |
nomad77 | TheNewGuy: this is unofficial but worth the read http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Jaunty | 06:49 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: Which means they have 4 repositories. or what we call repos | 06:49 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: Main is supported and open source. Restricted is supported and not open source (things like drivers to make hardware work) | 06:50 |
TheNewGuy | ok | 06:50 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: There are two others universe which is not supported and open source and multiverse which is not supported and not open source | 06:50 |

Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Excitement? | 07:25 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: And I'm not sure how you conclude it's a financial commitement :) | 07:25 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: now wherever it is.. you need to open the terminal and type.. "cd ~/path/to/the/bin/file" | 07:25 |
hpierce | e[X]sodus: a *.deb serves a similar function. | 07:25 |
TheNewGuy | better security. and I'm trying to learn linux... I thought ubutu would be easy enough. but everyone talks in code. | 07:26 |
hpierce | For non-debian Linux such as Fedora or SuSE, *.rpm is the package extention. | 07:26 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: Yeah that's how computers are my Mom complains about the same with people who use Windows | 07:26 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: talks in code? the modern OS (IE: Windows) has stupified people and we have become lazy.. | 07:26 |
TheNewGuy | I used to design software. and program a little. did not know I needed to be a pro | 07:26 |
TheNewGuy | I agree with that wigg | 07:27 |

tesla_ | windoze? | 07:27 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: you dont.. but you have to expect a learning curve.. you dont jump from a Windows PC and then just expect to know everything.. it takes time and patience.. | 07:27 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, Windows has trained us for Windows, which isn't dumber or smarter, just clickable. Also happens to be a great way to ensure vendor lock-in | 07:27 |
TheNewGuy | ok, guys.. I get it. a learning curve. | 07:27 |

n2diy | can you use sbackup and srestore between an 8.04 box and a 9.04 box? | 07:27 |
hpierce | BTW, if I sudden disapear, I am fighting a system freeze issue :) | 07:28 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: Umm I guess you want a GUI way? | 07:28 |
hpierce | What is a good irc chanel for Devs? | 07:28 |
TheNewGuy | don't care | 07:28 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: I could argue this all day.. Ubuntu is very "clickable".. but I like to control my OS and hardware | 07:28 |
TheNewGuy | I started on CPM a very long time ago. | 07:28 |
ahughes | heya, I need a uPnP client application. Coz I want to play from my uPnP server to my ubuntu-ps3. Any suggestions :D | 07:28 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: Right click it -> properties -> make it executable -> click it -> run in terminal | 07:28 |
TheNewGuy | comand lines work fine. | 07:28 |
tesla_ | hey new guy let me give you my number one tip that made things much easier.......when using the terminal for anything TAB will auto complete things for ya.... great for error checking and long filenames | 07:28 |
hpierce | I saw someone say they were losing Faith in Ubuntu... | 07:28 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: after you navigate to the folder its saved in (in the terminal of course) run this "sudo sh jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin" | 07:28 |
e[X]sodus | I like Ubuntu, i've tried 3 others in the past and were way over my head | 07:28 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: should prompt you for a password, and just put yours in | 07:29 |
hpierce | Ubuntu (and Linux) unlike Windows is not about faith if MS will fix it, but about knowledge and the ability to fix it. | 07:29 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, Same abstract skills that make you a windows guru make you a linux guru. You spot unique and pertinent strings in error messages and outputs and google them for clues. And I'd argue that windows software suites allow for easier and more competent controll of more parts than linux... | 07:29 |
User__ | I accidentally the whole ubuntu. | 07:29 |
Daskreech | qe2eqe: Eh? | 07:29 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, because people make the 80/20 decision when writing drivers, unftly, linux is in the 20 | 07:29 |
qe2eqe | Ever gotten a driver disk with .rpms? | 07:30 |
hpierce | ge2eqe: I come from a time before Google... I can tell you that is not the case among the talented. | 07:30 |
TheNewGuy | ok... trying it. | 07:30 |
Daskreech | qe2eqe: Yes actaully | 07:30 |
e[X]sodus | linux has come such a long way in the last 5-6 years | 07:30 |
hpierce | e[X]sodus: I agree it is much more accessible... and that is good :) | 07:30 |
* e[X]sodus remembers the google beta lol | 07:30 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: your getting out of the scope here.. drivers rely on the manufactor and are influenced by market control and the presence (and time frame) on the scene.. Linux.. written in 1994.. lots of catching up to do.. but enough of this.. its better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:31 |
tesla_ | my comment has fallen on def ears I see | 07:31 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: So I have 3 missing kernel modules how do I attack this? | 07:31 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, but also no, if you follow any kind of strict trust model. That same level of driver control for custom software is akin to unprotected sex in the caveish darkness of no source code. | 07:31 |
mike1312 | extras are installed, but stil cant run DVD | 07:31 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: which one's are missing? | 07:31 |
Daskreech | type1 freetype and nvidia | 07:31 |
Daskreech | !tab | You mean this tesla_ ? | 07:32 |
ubottu | You mean this tesla_ ?: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 07:32 |
n2diy | tesla_: tab completion has been around for awhile. | 07:32 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, practical side is... out of scope? thats how you know an ideological zealot. =). | 07:32 |
snakdoc | does any modem support linux now ? | 07:32 |
snakdoc | without linuxant | 07:32 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: out of scope = #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:32 |
WIGGMPk | !offtopic | 07:32 |
ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 07:32 |
n2diy | snakdoc: what kind of modem are you refering to? | 07:33 |
Daskreech | qe2eqe: No just that it's not giving support in a support channel you were pointed to where you can talk about it all you like | 07:33 |
snakdoc | dial up modem | 07:33 |
tesla_ | I know but when I first started using ubuntu I had no idea comming from windoze | 07:33 |
qe2eqe | agreeing with hpierce... its about getting dirty hands. | 07:33 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: did it install for you? | 07:33 |
n2diy | snakdoc: any externel modem will, don't know about recent internals? | 07:33 |
qe2eqe | my bad. | 07:33 |
snakdoc | with out special driver externals will work ? | 07:34 |
n2diy | tesla_: ok, np. | 07:34 |
Daskreech | snakdoc: doubtful | 07:34 |
Daskreech | snakdoc: Oh yeah externals work fine | 07:34 |
n2diy | tesla_: welcome to Linux/Ubuntu. :) | 07:35 |
TheNewGuy | I stuck... | 07:35 |
n2diy | can you use sbackup and srestore between an 8.04 box and a 9.04 box? | 07:35 |
snakdoc | ok i could make my internal work with driver but was looking for one that had linux support thats all | 07:35 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: running X& It throws three errors with no nvidia module being fatal | 07:35 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: on? | 07:35 |
TheNewGuy | wigg, I changed the permission | 07:35 |
snakdoc | was looking at building server and was going to install on it thats reason i was asking | 07:35 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: best bet to delete and re-download | 07:36 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: You can use tab in IRC to complete names as well | 07:36 |
snakdoc | thanks for all the help | 07:36 |
n2diy | snakdoc: yes, they should, they are just another serial device. | 07:36 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: it throws and error on install the nvidia package? | 07:36 |
Daskreech | Yes | 07:36 |
TheNewGuy | when I right click it to run it in terminal, terminal is not an option in the list | 07:36 |
* WIGGMPk cant believe he resorted to proprietary software to burn DVD's | 07:36 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: you trying 173? | 07:36 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: try k3b | 07:36 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Yes | 07:36 |
snakdoc | problem i had was that the one i have built in was a winmodem i believe :( | 07:36 |
Daskreech | snakdoc: if it's PCI it's a winmodem | 07:37 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: I have.. Gnomebaker, growisofs, makeisofs, Brasero, etc etc etc etc | 07:37 |
tesla_ | n2diy, thanks ive been using it for almost a year but just recently have started to interact with the community | 07:37 |
Daskreech | deeveedee ? | 07:37 |
snakdoc | so best bet is a external and i should be in good shape ? | 07:37 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: yes.. k3b, acidburn, etc | 07:37 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: what package names are they? | 07:38 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, happens all too often, that resorting. I got a bucket of win only hardware =( | 07:38 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: just open the terminal and navigate to it the file | 07:38 |
Daskreech | nivdia-glx-173 | 07:38 |
n2diy | tesla_: fine business, then you've missed out on a year of the best tech. support in the industry, this channel. | 07:39 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: what upsets me is it worked fine in Intrepid.. and just took a dive.. either the driver or dvd+rw-tools.. cause nero linux looks like its going to fail too | 07:39 |
tesla_ | tis true | 07:40 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, alot of time the difference between proprietary apps for hardware use and free.... is configuration req'd. Try and find maybe what the conf defaults in your proprietary working solution are compared to other. | 07:40 |
TheNewGuy | wigg? | 07:40 |
mobi-sheep | IRSSI HEAVY USERS: Is there a /set command that will not display user's hostname whenever they join/quit/ban/etc ? | 07:40 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: yes? | 07:40 |
=== CaneToad1 is now known as CaneToad |
TheNewGuy | ok, got to the directory with the file, typed in "sudo sh jre-6u14-linux-i586.bin" it asked for my pass word. then said it can't open the file. | 07:41 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, yeah, sometimes I wish synaptic was smart enough to roll back only subsections of the package tree to specific dates of known working... it probably is, i just haven't rtfm | 07:41 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: its the kernel or package.. cause its failing again | 07:41 |
TheNewGuy | when I tried it the second time, it did not ask for the password and said it could not open the file. | 07:41 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: It's on a timer. When you put in your password it remembers it for 10 minutes | 07:42 |
swetha | ctrl is not working my ubuntu 8.04.......... | 07:42 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, so you're dual booting this thing? | 07:42 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: cause you already authenticated yourself | 07:42 |
TheNewGuy | ok | 07:42 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: did you re-download it already? | 07:42 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: hell no.. =) | 07:42 |
Xuzz | I'm on a GMA950 with a max canvas size of 2048x2028 (for acceleration)...and I have my two monitors positioned "top-of" each other (in xrandr, they are side by side physically). I want to make them appear to X stacked on top but be able to use them as if they were positioned side by side in xrandr (isntead of having to have the mouse go off the top of the screen to switch) | 07:42 |
TheNewGuy | ok, doing that now. do I need to change the bin to EXE or something eles? | 07:42 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, so what proprietary software you resortin' to? | 07:42 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: no, exe is a windows only thing.. delete the file and redownload it then let me know | 07:43 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: nero for linux | 07:43 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: it was a test.. to see if it was the software used to burn DVD's.. but its definitely the system | 07:43 |
n2diy | can you use sbackup and srestore between an 8.04 box and a 9.04 box? | 07:44 |
ubuntu | Is there anybody here willing to help me? | 07:44 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: sec, thinking.. havent forgot about you | 07:44 |
TheNewGuy | ok, down loading now. going to take a few minutes... | 07:44 |
ubuntu | Like I am seriously freaking out right now | 07:44 |
n2diy | ubuntu, we can't! You haven't asked a question. | 07:44 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, Well if nero did it inside the operating system... (going out on a limb here)... the kernel should be ok with burning? | 07:45 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: in the meantime do you still synaptic open? | 07:45 |
ubuntu | Bah hold on lemme change it to a proper screen name | 07:45 |
TheNewGuy | yes | 07:45 |
nellmathew | hey guys i'm not sure who to ask this to, but i just installed ubuntu-tweak.. and it's "package cleaner".. in "clean cache" there's about 100+ .deb packages listed.. whicih i can select and remove.. do i need these? are they there because i did a net-install?.. | 07:45 |
ubuntu | d | 07:45 |
Daskreech | nellmathew: Yes | 07:46 |
n2diy | nellmathew: let apt figure that out, sun sudo apt-get clean | 07:46 |
TheNewGuy | should I close it? | 07:46 |
Daskreech | to the last part no to the first part | 07:46 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, maybe nero loads its own modules. Maybe it unloads them? Maybe it just tells whats there how to work right, or has safer settings by default. | 07:46 |
hermitmode | http://fullcirclemagazine.org --> read read read ... | 07:46 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: no try the sun-java6-jre install | 07:46 |
nellmathew | Daskreech, thanks! | 07:46 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: first try and get rid of everything again.. "sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-glx-173 nvidia-glx-96 nvidia-173-kernel-source nvidia-96-kernel-source nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-common nvidia-settings" | 07:47 |

Daskreech | ubuntu: type /nick somethingnew | 07:48 |
ubuntu | Listen I was running Xp and was attempting to dual boot Ubuntu | 07:48 |
TheNewGuy | exactly what do I type in to get a list of files in a directory? when in terminal | 07:48 |
=== ubuntu is now known as mrmental |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: thats fine.. just take the nvidia-common part out and try and remove all the stuff again | 07:48 |
mrmental | There | 07:48 |

qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, I wish you could confirm that the burner is ok hardware wise. | 07:48 |

mrmental | I was in the process of installing and going through partitioning. I set it up to where 6% of my hdd would be ubuntu and the rest Cp | 07:49 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: done | 07:49 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: returned no errors? | 07:49 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, have you googled for specific issues with linux and this guy? Firmware updates? | 07:50 |
mrmental | It was partitioning, but was stuck at 0%, so I waited about ten minutes and then it says something along the lines of 'Failed to Partition, Action aborted' | 07:50 |
TheNewGuy | ok, I am not in the correct desk top ... I guess. | 07:50 |
qe2eqe | WIGGMPk, are you using a known working cable? =/ had that happen before | 07:50 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Nope purged dkms and fakeroot | 07:50 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: :-D who's are you in? | 07:50 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: yes.. and there is a bug report opened in launchpad confirming the issue | 07:51 |
mrmental | I say to myself 'Ok thats weird, I am just going to restart my computer and forget about linux for now' | 07:51 |
n2diy | mrmental: how big is the hd? | 07:51 |
mrmental | 500gb | 07:51 |
TheNewGuy | ok... I switched. wow... I am reaching back to my cpm days. can't belive I am remembering this stuff. | 07:51 |
WIGGMPk | qe2eqe: its an internal drive.. sata for a laptop.. and yes.. dont worry about it.. I know what the problem is but cant fix it | 07:51 |

WIGGMPk | Daskreech: ok, you removed dkms or it auto went with.. ?? | 07:52 |
qe2eqe | hermitmode, thats a tiny little unintuitive link that says 'english'.... as the final step in retrieving issue | 07:52 |
Daskreech | auto went | 07:52 |
TheNewGuy | holy crapp... I'm old | 07:53 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: it download yet? | 07:53 |
mrmental | I restart my computer and go to boot Xp, it gets past the scrolling bar screen and then goes to the 'Checking C: if you wish to skip press any key now' | 07:53 |
TheNewGuy | I think my linux has gas. it says inflating | 07:53 |
mrmental | Then it flicks Blue Screen and restarts | 07:53 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: New nick then? | 07:53 |
TheNewGuy | down loaded and just ran it. | 07:54 |
n2diy | mrmental: so how many gigs did your give Ubuntu? 6% is unusual, recently I partitioned, and I wasn't asked what percent to give you Ubuntu, but how many gigs? | 07:54 |
TheNewGuy | new nick? | 07:54 |
mrmental | About 30 gigs? | 07:54 |
mrmental | n2diy: About 30 gigs | 07:54 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: lol.. so your good now? | 07:54 |
TheNewGuy | not sure, it ran and installed. do I need to reboot? | 07:55 |
TheNewGuy | How can I check to see if it is installed? | 07:55 |
n2diy | mrmental: ok, but did you tell it 30 gigs, or 6 percent? | 07:55 |
mrmental | I run the Ubuntu live cd and go to check my hdd and it says 'Failed to Mount' | 07:55 |
Daskreech | TheNewGuy: no need to reboot. Type java | 07:55 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: or open something that uses java | 07:56 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: you might have to update your alternatives... | 07:56 |
mrmental | n2diy: I used the slider, I had it to where ubuntu had 30gigs (Up above the slider it had the percentage) | 07:56 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, was it originally a primary partition, or extended, that you installed ubuntu to? | 07:56 |
TheNewGuy | where do i type java? | 07:57 |
ChrisD | Hey guys | 07:57 |
Daskreech | terminal | 07:57 |
n2diy | mrmental: ok, after you re-sized the partiton, did you make it bootable, format it, etc...? | 07:57 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, also, what does fdisk say about this disk that doesn | 07:57 |
* ChrisD needs help with eeebox display drivers (intel gma 950 i believe) | 07:57 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: ok run "sudo apt-get --purge autoremove" | 07:58 |
TheNewGuy | still showing the old version. but in terminal it came up. | 07:58 |
ChrisD | Can anyone please help? | 07:58 |
qe2eqe | ChrisD, state your issue? | 07:58 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Did | 07:58 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: in the terminal... type "sudo update-alternatives --config java" | 07:58 |
mrmental | n2diy: Sorry but I am not quite as computer literate as I thought I was, I dont know what fdisk is. There was no option I dont think for bootable/format or anything, I just used the slider, it all looked good and I pressed 'Next' | 07:58 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: then pick the one you just installed | 07:58 |
ChrisD | qe2eqe, well, I just installed eeebuntu, but everything related to video performance lags | 07:58 |
TheNewGuy | There is only 1 program which provides java | 07:59 |
TheNewGuy | (/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java). Nothing to configure. | 07:59 |
ChrisD | qe2eqe, even when i switch desktops (I've got an eeebox b202, everything works out of the box, it just lags like hell) | 07:59 |
n2diy | mrmental: that wasn't me suggesting fdisk. Ok, after you re-zized the disk, and you run next, the new partition info is displayed, right? | 07:59 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: ok.. "sudo apt-get install nvidia-173-kernel-source nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-glx-173" | 08:00 |
qe2eqe | ChrisD, open terminal, type glxinfo | grep render | 08:00 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: type "java --version" | 08:00 |
mrmental | n2diy: No it wouldn't resize, it said 'Failed to Partition, Action Aborting' | 08:00 |

Daskreech | that's unusally long | 08:02 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: honestly.. its 30 million times easier installing it from the repositories | 08:02 |
ChrisD | TheNewGuy, it should install itself in firefox | 08:03 |
TheNewGuy | ok. | 08:03 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Speaking of easier from the repos | 08:03 |
TheNewGuy | ok, | 08:03 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: I believe that is what I was attempting to do? I was just trying to install Ubuntu so I could dual boot Xp and Ubuntu | 08:03 |
qe2eqe | ChrisD, I think your problem is one of two things. Either you don't understand exactly how not powerful your netbook is, or a fan or duct or something on your machine isn't working, your processor is running slower to keep from crisping. | 08:03 |
Daskreech | reinstall a driver? | 08:03 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: ok.. "sudo apt-get install nvidia-173-kernel-source nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-glx-173" | 08:03 |
TheNewGuy | ok, well I am don with it for now. how can I install my updates? | 08:03 |

TheNewGuy | the program that I am runing sent me to the java.com to down load it because the version loaded was incorrect. | 08:05 |
qe2eqe | ChrisD, hardware acceleration = direct rendering | 08:05 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: run a dkmsbuild first | 08:05 |
ChrisD | qe2eqe, I meant Ubuntu 6.10 | 08:05 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: do you personally install ANY other copies of java or any OTHER packages on your machine? | 08:06 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: I don't know, I am just a bit frustrated right now, my hdd is failing to mount now, like when I try to access it under the live cd, it says 'Failed to Mount' | 08:06 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: DKMS should do it automatically | 08:06 |
qe2eqe | ChrisD, i mean, whats slow | 08:06 |
Daskreech | it's not how do I do it manually? | 08:06 |
ChrisD | qe2eqe, eh, I guess? Sorry haven't used Linux for a while now, but even xp runs a lot better, at least firefox scrolling doesn't lag like mad | 08:06 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: i have no idea | 08:06 |
TheNewGuy | no I did not install anything else... oh, I tried to install flash. | 08:06 |
TheNewGuy | it is no long in the update manager | 08:06 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: humor me for 30 mins.. | 08:06 |
ChrisD | qe2eqe, well, everything except the terminal | 08:06 |
TheNewGuy | sure | 08:07 |
Rub | I new in Ubuntu, i want learn much about linux and ubuntu | 08:07 |
TheNewGuy | by the way... thanks for all the help. | 08:07 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: run this in terminal.. make sure you close synaptic or update manager before this.... "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" | 08:07 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, well, there should be at least two volumes that it lets your try to mount. If windows didn't eat linux, then the latter should be gracefully mounted. Either way, your windows should be ntfs, which sometimes has issues in linux if you don't shut your windows down proper | 08:07 |
Rub | my english is not very good, sorry | 08:07 |
mrmental | I mean I can paste the details as to why it cannot mount | 08:07 |
TheNewGuy | I am going to get a basic book tomarrow... I need to learn the basics. although you guys got me pretty far. I know 100 time more now then when i started | 08:08 |
Nicolas__ | Hi! I need to Partition my Windows Partition to make a larger partition for Ubuntu. (I'm on a HP Laptop.) Does anyone know any good programs to use? | 08:08 |
TheNewGuy | ok, what will this do wig | 08:08 |
n2diy | hpierce: does this disk have data on it that you need to recover? | 08:08 |
ubuntunom | Nicolas__: use Live Cd and GParted that comes with it | 08:08 |
qe2eqe | ChrisD, I don't know what to say. I've never heard of eeebuntu. If you have an eeepc, I'd recommend modifying or at least learning defaults from the canonical eeepc distribution. | 08:09 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: did you run that command?? the package name "ubuntu-restricted-extras" is called a meta package.. it will download and install a series of packages most commonly desired that are NOT included with Ubuntu (due to their philosipy or however you spell that word) including.. adobe flash, sun java jre, etc | 08:09 |
Rub | i need basic help for somebody to approve a matter | 08:09 |
ubuntunom | Nicolas__: u find it under system as partition manager | 08:09 |
Nicolas__ | Ubuntunom: I used Wubi to install. | 08:09 |
tenach | Rub: what's up? | 08:09 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, put the details over at pastebin | 08:09 |
causasui | Can someone here help me set up pureftpd? | 08:10 |
Rub | tenach: i study Analisis of sistems in mendoza-argentina | 08:10 |
ubuntunom | Nicolas__: you could dload GParted Live CD then | 08:10 |
Rub | i need teach somebody to approve me | 08:10 |
qe2eqe | Analysis of Systems =) | 08:10 |
ChrisD | qe2eqe, well it's a distro based on Ubuntu, it's just that they say everthing has been optimized for the eee series of netbooks, that is sort of true, everything works out of the box, even wifi, but X lags, even in Xfce4 | 08:10 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: says there is no source | 08:10 |
Rub | sorry for my english | 08:10 |
cheebz | hullo | 08:10 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: trust me.. one of the first things I do when I install ubuntu.. is install ubuntu-restricted-extras first.. then I install ubuntu-tweak (which will give you tons of software to easily install from the application and give you tweaks for the system) | 08:10 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: damit.. do you have the headers installed???? | 08:11 |
libtech | ChrisD: i have the same problem i think, im using a 1000he | 08:11 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Umm Dunno which headers? | 08:11 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: cd /usr/src and list the directory.. do you see.. "linux-headers-2.6.28-13-generic" and the other one? | 08:11 |
tenach | Rub: What do you need approved? | 08:11 |
snakdoc | ubuntu-tweak is that package name ? | 08:11 |
Nicolas__ | ubuntunom: I heard it doesn't work good with HP. I have the gparted cd downloaded, anyway I can mount the files instead of having to burn them? I'm low on CDs. | 08:11 |
ChrisD | libtech, yeah, something tells me I really should have went for Mandriva 2k9 | 08:11 |
causasui | Can someone here help me set up pureftpd? | 08:11 |
WIGGMPk | snakdoc: yes.. but you need to add repositories to do it | 08:11 |
qe2eqe | Rub, no problem, take a look at my spanish. Como podemos ayuday? (Perdona me por mi espanol terrible) | 08:12 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Pastebin? | 08:12 |
snakdoc | ok i can find them | 08:12 |
qe2eqe | ayudar* dammit | 08:12 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: Ah wait I needed something more for the driver support | 08:12 |
Rub | a test of systems analysis | 08:12 |
ChrisD | Anyways, thanks for the help guys, I'mma just try another distro or the official Ubuntu, see if those work better | 08:12 |
ChrisD | libtech, good luck bro | 08:12 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: look at this site http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ to install ubuntu-tweak.. click download and it will walk you through adding "repositories" and downloading the application.. let me know when the restricted extras get done so we can see if it fixed your issue | 08:12 |
snakdoc | trying to restore system at moment anyway was almost done and system rebooted when i didn't wan tit to | 08:12 |
WIGGMPk | snakdoc: http://ubuntu-tweak.com/ | 08:12 |

TheNewGuy | wigg it says could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 resources temporarily unavailable) | 08:13 |
LiraNuna | I setuped dav_svn long time ago (~6 months ago) and it all worked until I setupped apparmor for apache2. now it doesn't work when using svn client but works on firefox or wget. disabling apparmor doesn't resolve | 08:13 |
Daskreech | umm | 08:13 |
Daskreech | ok | 08:13 |
Rub | can help solve a basic problem or question? | 08:13 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: do you have Synpatic Package Manager or Update Manager going?? | 08:13 |
tenach | Rub: Sure | 08:13 |
tenach | Rub: I can try | 08:13 |
TheNewGuy | similar thing about administration directory... "is another process using it?" | 08:13 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Sorry for being such a n00b but can you help me through this pastebin stuff? | 08:13 |

TheNewGuy | I get a "hit" and then "ign" on some of them. | 08:14 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, to conserve space in the irc channel, it's polite to put blocks of text in a url. That way I can click and look at your exact hdd mounting error, but these guys don't get hit with bookoo lines of terminalese to scroll around | 08:14 |
SirMoo | WIGGMPk, did twice and nothing happened. | 08:14 |
Rub | tenach you need me to do a query to get ubuntu. linux? | 08:14 |

Also, I put zeros in /etc/defaults/bluetooth. In brief, how to make bluetooth off at startup, with possibility to turn it on if needed? | 08:16 |
SirMoo | Because twice I've used the restart function. | 08:16 |
Rub | estoy estudiando hacerca de ubuntu y mi profesor me pide que ayude a alguien a resolver un problema o responder una pregunta | 08:16 |

WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: System > Administration > System Monitor | 08:18 |

WIGGMPk | yea.. i have to reboot now too lol | 08:18 |
satellite | Does anyone have a TOSHIBA r500 portege | 08:18 |
TheNewGuy | ok, going to restart.. BRB | 08:18 |
Rub | yes!!! thank you!! | 08:18 |
tenach | Basic questions? | 08:19 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: http://pastebin.com/d7508fec | 08:19 |
Rub | basic please, yes | 08:19 |
tenach | Well, the first one I'm always asked is this: What is Ubuntu? | 08:19 |
hermitmode | mga bisdak pang mata namo hehehe.. roflmao | 08:20 |
snakdoc | Guest51792: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade i made a mistake if you aren't root sorry about that | 08:20 |
flatoutN00b | how do you become root? | 08:20 |
Rub | yes,like this tenach! | 08:20 |
Rub | thank you | 08:20 |
neocortex | None to help with bluetooth? | 08:20 |
tenach | You are welcome. | 08:20 |
snakdoc | the sudo in command will fix that for you | 08:21 |
n2diy | flatoutN00b: sudo | 08:21 |
hermitmode | flatoutN00b : just use sudo or you can use x root terminal... | 08:21 |
Rub | Tenach: Ubuntu is a community developed operating system that is perfect for laptops, desktops and servers. | 08:21 |
flatoutN00b | damn, sudo again | 08:21 |
hermitmode | flatoutN00b : #sudo command (After that it will prompt you with your password) | 08:21 |
=== indra_23 is now known as vhiiya |
tenach | Why should I use Ubuntu, Rub? | 08:22 |
hermitmode | flatoutN00b : #rum x root terminal if you don't want sudo | 08:22 |
flatoutN00b | sudo appears to be my arch nemesis so far, followed closely by make files | 08:22 |
* flatoutN00b shakes fist at make files | 08:22 |
jota- | How can I get Jaunty server's console to display foreing chars correctly(á,ö,ñ,etc)? | 08:22 |
Shay5482 | hello , can someone recommend me on good word processor other than openoffice ? | 08:22 |
snakdoc | flatoutN00b: you can run sudo -i and get in x root | 08:22 |
libtech | make files are good | 08:23 |
tenach | Shay5482: What do you use it for? | 08:23 |
hermitmode | flatoutN00b : run gksu /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator @ Run Application | 08:23 |
qe2eqe | Shay5482, I'm fond of abiword, but make sure to turn on autosave because its crashy sometimes. Also huge fan of WikiDpad, but it's not really all purpose. | 08:23 |
flatoutN00b | I have never run a make file that didn't error | 08:23 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Did you get that? | 08:23 |
=== attila_ is now known as gatto |
Shay5482 | tenach: open .rtf format (original document that saved on microsoft office ) when i open it with openoffice the document not opened well | 08:23 |
yellabs | dual screen look really funny | 08:24 |
yellabs | :) | 08:24 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, yeah, checking now. Was busy googling spanish verbs. | 08:24 |
snakdoc | flatoutN00b: after time those go away because you are missing files that are need to build project after time you start to collect them | 08:24 |
gatto | Shay5482 use .doc ext. | 08:24 |
Rub | because is a software free, for you community friendly. Ubuntu is by far the best Linux variant available today for hardware recognition. | 08:24 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Take your time, any help is appreciated | 08:24 |
flatoutN00b | been trying to install aircrack, but aircrack seems to require openssl, so after three hours I figured out how to install openssl, but apparently I did it wrong because aircrack still says the directories don't exist | 08:25 |
* flatoutN00b shakes fist at make files | 08:25 |
Rub | Easy to Dual Boot: If you’ve got an extra partition you are in luck. | 08:25 |
snakdoc | flatoutN00b: when building project you can run sudo apt-get build-dep <APP NAME> to get it to install most the files you will need | 08:25 |
tenach | Good job so far Rub :) | 08:25 |
Shay5482 | gatto: u mean i should save the filename in microsoft office at .doc format ? | 08:25 |
Daskreech | WIGGMPk: X is back | 08:25 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: thank god.. it worked then eh? | 08:25 |
tenach | Will my .doc files and other Microsoft Office files work? | 08:25 |
SirMoo | WIGGMPk the hard restart worked. =D | 08:25 |
Daskreech | Yeah but still no pretty stuff | 08:25 |
gatto | well | 08:25 |
Rub | than you tenach!!! | 08:25 |
Daskreech | well something for tomorrow | 08:25 |
WIGGMPk | SirMoo: good to hear | 08:25 |
xhema | why does the sound in ubuntu always have to be so painful | 08:25 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, you're trying to mount your windows partition. We know that because NTFS is microsoft's filesystem. It means just what it says. You have two options here | 08:26 |
Futasay | can someone please help me? | 08:26 |
Rub | thank you for understand my problem | 08:26 |
xhema | how many mixer items do we really need? | 08:26 |
gatto | .doc format work with openoffice and microsoft office | 08:26 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: sorry it took so long for me to think about the headers | 08:26 |
koshari | Rub what are you basing that ubuntu is best for hardware recigition on? | 08:26 |
qe2eqe | rub, how is it free? | 08:26 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Yes it would be really easy but I can't BOOT Xp, per se | 08:26 |
Rub | and for my poor english | 08:26 |
flatoutN00b | snakdoc: I have no idea what you said, but it sounds like it could be helpful if I understood it :-) | 08:26 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, why can't you? | 08:26 |
tenach | Rub: Your English is pretty good :D | 08:26 |
gatto | .doc may more smaller then .rtf | 08:26 |
n2diy | xhema: why would you ask a subjective question? | 08:26 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, I like easy solutions, and that would fix it, just booting and shutting down proper | 08:26 |
TheNewGuy | made it back. | 08:26 |
WIGGMPk | Daskreech: well I guess im gonna compile the 2.6.30 kernel *sigh* why are you running the server image btw? | 08:27 |
xhema | n2diy, how can I get my source recording working on ubuntu? it worked, but I cannot find the settings | 08:27 |
kebomix | i installed script to convert audio extensions but , i want it to appear on right click of audio file , not to go right click >> scripts >> avconvert | 08:27 |
snakdoc | flatoutN00b: maybe someone here thats been using ubuntu longer can explain better than i can | 08:27 |
xhema | when n00bs use this thing, they are frustratd | 08:27 |
Rub | Ubuntu is available free of charge and we can send you a CD of the latest version | 08:27 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: awesome.. now install that package.. "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras" from the command line | 08:27 |
flatoutN00b | anyone have aircrack installed? | 08:27 |
Rub | Ubuntu CDs contain only free software applications; we encourage you to use free and open source software | 08:27 |
TheNewGuy | ok, was gonna ask for that... :-) | 08:27 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: It attempts to boot, gets right past the the scrolling bar screen then it gives me soemthing like 'Checking C: Press any key to cancel' at which point it goes to a Blue Screen of Death for like 1 millisecond and the machine restarts | 08:28 |
n2diy | xhema: what is the source, and what app. are you recording it with? | 08:28 |
gatto | GNOME vs. XFCE what's the better? | 08:28 |
qe2eqe | Rub, I'm very fond of the gratis and libre distinction. =/ What is the advantage of libre? | 08:28 |
snakdoc | flatoutN00b: i use to but its been a while back whats error message use http://paste.ubuntu.com if its long | 08:28 |
kebomix | i installed script to convert audio extensions but , i want it to appear on right click of audio file , not to go right click >> scripts >> avconvert , how to do that ? | 08:28 |
xhema | n2diy, any app. source is a front panel mic. app is the sound recorder | 08:28 |
Futasay | I just burnt ubuntu iso to a disc and had some trouble booting it at startup to install it and i had already made it so BIOS booted from CD before HDD so i installed the CD Boot Helper on the Ubunutu CD and now when i started it up it gave me a choice in between ubuntu and windows so i choose ubuntu then it gives me and option to go to a menu by pressing ESC | 08:29 |
qe2eqe | Mrmental, wow, sounds bad. | 08:29 |
TheNewGuy | ok, installing now. yikes... taking a while... only at 5% | 08:29 |
andrew_46 | gatto: Neither is better IMHO, it is a matter both of taste and resources | 08:29 |
xhema | n2diy, ahh line in capture was on... not mic let me see | 08:29 |
gatto | IMHO? | 08:29 |
Futasay | and if i dont it just loads the Ubuntu screen and after that it comes up with a whole lot of I/O device errors for like 5 minutes | 08:29 |
tenach | gatto: That depends on your taste. Try them and find out. | 08:29 |
xhema | n2diy, how can i see what item is producing a signal? | 08:29 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Yeah.. could I do Option 2? Would that work? | 08:29 |
tenach | gatto: IMHO is in my humble/honest opinion | 08:29 |
xhema | is there a way to scan all inputs for sound? | 08:29 |
yellabs | flatoutNOOb see private message | 08:30 |
Futasay | then it comes up with BusyBox and thats all i can do | 08:30 |
qe2eqe | Mrmental, yes. mount -t ntfs -3g /dev/sda1/media/disk -o force | 08:30 |
kebomix | i got it guys , here http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/add-custom-functionality-to-nautilus-linux/ | 08:30 |
qe2eqe | Mrmental, I'm scared, tho, and might be tempted to mount read only... | 08:30 |
Rub | GNU / Linux systems are free operating systems, meaning the software has the potential to level 4 digital freedoms, so a person can not only see the source code of the system, but may not modify, adapt to their needs and even re - circulate freely without fear. | 08:30 |
gatto | XBMC Media Center the best!:D | 08:30 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: In the terminal correct? What are the possible negative effects? | 08:30 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, because if you screwed the pooch on your format, not all is lost untill you start writing more to the partition | 08:30 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: its a lot of packages.. but it will be worth it.. | 08:31 |
Futasay | can someone help me??? | 08:31 |
gatto | Usally, I change the main theme | 08:31 |
n2diy | xhema: well, you might have to create your own? I use Audacity to create sound file, and from there, I can trouble shoot the sound system. | 08:31 |
qe2eqe | mrmental: the only limit to that question is your imagination. ;) | 08:31 |
xhema | yes, i have audacity, but again there are so many options | 08:31 |
gatto | say the problem | 08:31 |
TheNewGuy | is there a list of what I am installing? | 08:31 |
qe2eqe | mrmental: to answer your other q, yeah, in terminal | 08:31 |
Futasay | HELP ME | 08:31 |
gatto | Futasay say | 08:32 |
TheNewGuy | By the way... wigg I really appreciate the help. | 08:32 |
yellabs | Futasay, did you check the cdrom for errors? | 08:32 |
Futasay | i cant load Ubuntu properly after the ubuntu loading screen it lists a whole lot of erros for 4-5 minutes hten only lets me use BusyBox | 08:32 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: I really just want the files I have on the hdd, I can always just reinstall windows, but there is a lengthy amount of music files I would love to have back | 08:32 |
yellabs | Futasay, check the cdrom for errors ...? | 08:33 |
SirMoo | I can't seem to get Java to work. T_T | 08:33 |
xhema | n2diy, i could create my own. | 08:33 |
bullgard4 | What do the 4 vertical bars with ascending length symbolize in the lower left status bar in Ekiga 3.2.0? | 08:33 |

Rub | tnah you very much for you help!!!!!! | 08:33 |
xhema | but where to start. I guess I need to iterate through all options of the mixer | 08:33 |
qe2eqe | Rub, So, I'm in luck. I want to try ubuntu, and I have that extra partition you mentioned. It's a dell/compaq/hp... | 08:33 |
phoe6 | hello, I find that if I add export PATH=/a/bin:$PATH to .bashrc and do source .bashrc the changes are not persistant. If log out of ssh session and login back again, I lose the settings. How do I make it persistant? | 08:33 |
xhema | or add a gauge to the mixer to show if there is a signal | 08:33 |
tvasht | is it possible to move ubuntu to the beginning of partition after removing windows from there? | 08:33 |

WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: a list of what your installing.. hmm... http://packages.ubuntu.com/jaunty/ubuntu-restricted-extras this might help | 08:34 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, well, I doubt it's going to nuke anything. You can mount it as read only for the extra precaution... but I've used that command a number of times now, with no issues. | 08:34 |
yellabs | tvasht for ubuntu it does not matter where the partition is, its not slower, so it does not matter.. | 08:35 |
gatto | Futasay desktop edition? | 08:35 |
tenach | You are very welcome Rub! | 08:35 |
tenach | Good luck, Rub | 08:35 |
Futasay | Yes desktop edition | 08:35 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Thank you, I am going to attempt it, wish me luck | 08:35 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, I think you would just add readonly to the end of that 'mount -t ntfs -3g /dev/sda1/media/disk -o force' | 08:35 |
yellabs | Futasay, seems enough, so check cdrom for errors | 08:35 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, good luck. | 08:35 |
Rub | thank's!! | 08:35 |
n2diy | xhema: ok, so you have a known good sound source? Then double check your sound settings, beware of little red indicators under the gain/volume sliders, they toggle mute on and off. | 08:35 |

pedestrianentran | Im having some more joy from my favourite hosting company, Godaddy. Trying to enable ssh access to a couple of my hosting accounts. You navigate thru the awful website until you finally get to the page where you enter your phone number and click "enable". They then put an automated call to your phone and a machine reads you your pin to activate the ssh. I did that and got the phone call but the pin didn't work. Ive tried again a dozen | 08:38 |

Rolaulten | Thanks | 09:12 |

wanna_learn | can u help me? | 09:13 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, or if you know the mount place you can get all elegant and use the cp command, (copy), cp /mnt/sda1/* /media/?????? | 09:13 |
nixie_pixel | Exploiter - just ask for what you are looking for, "hacker" is far too generic. Someone will point you in the right direction. | 09:13 |
TheNewGuy | how can I see which driver is installed? | 09:13 |
Weust` | TheNewGuy: driver for what ? | 09:13 |
qe2eqe | but i know there's caveats with the copy command and can't guarantee that that would work fully... =/ | 09:14 |

qe2eqe | mrmental, i should hope so ;). Besides, I hope the van comes after you get your 400th gig in. | 09:17 |
nixie_pixel | wanna_learn - That information should have been given to you by whoever gave you the source you added. | 09:17 |
wanna_learn | nixie_pixel:okay | 09:17 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: 400gb of Cp would hopefully raise a big enough flag to the feds lmao | 09:17 |

World705 | is there a problem with the repository's or just me ? | 09:18 |
iashwaniarora | can anybody plz help me | 09:19 |

Nehyx | !hi | garp | 09:22 |
ubottu | garp: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 09:22 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, yeah, easy. fdisk, gparted... eduardo nailed it | 09:22 |
Garp | Yesterday I asked about how to maintain a machine that has no internet connection. For answer, I got: | 09:22 |
Garp | !offline | 09:22 |
ubottu | If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script. Alternatively, try http://apt.alturl.com/ - See also !APTonCD | 09:22 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: well thats good at least.. however I dont really know how to adjust the fonts.. you might try download the mscore fonts | 09:22 |
qe2eqe | iashwaniarora, just browse the applications and search through the synaptic package manager | 09:23 |
qe2eqe | Garp, lol. | 09:23 |
World705 | i get [waiting for headers] when trying to update or intsall anything from apt-get, can any one help ? | 09:23 |
TheSage | Good morning channel | 09:23 |
Garp | Such an answer was not really good. Because it doest say *how* to get the package list on the offline machine. | 09:23 |
Weust` | !hi | Weust` | 09:23 |
ubottu | Weust`, please see my private message | 09:23 |
hermitmode | Garp: if you have a machine connected to the internet you can copy all installed .deb @ /var/cache/apt/archives | 09:23 |
Nehyx | Garp: you want update machine without internet, is that? | 09:23 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: this is a long shot but try "sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts" however I think this should of been installed already | 09:23 |
Garp | Nehyx: yes. | 09:24 |
TheNewGuy | this is so wierd.. ti works but I can't see everything... | 09:24 |
Nehyx | Garp: use lts versions and download 8.04.1, 8.04.2... versions | 09:24 |
Garp | hermitmode: copyin which /var/cache/apt/archives ? | 09:24 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: http://pastebin.com/db50e2b4 | 09:24 |
Garp | Nehyx: the whole one ? | 09:24 |
hermitmode | Garp: all of the *.deb files cause thats the directory apt-get install put all the package | 09:25 |
Garp | OK, before you go further, I just found some interesting link: http://pypt-offline.sourceforge.net/ | 09:25 |
iashwaniarora | thanks a lot | 09:25 |
Garp | does anybody ever tested this? Thanks. | 09:25 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, wwwwwwooooooowwwwwww | 09:25 |
TheSage | Is there a place I could get a block diagram of Ubuntu? | 09:25 |
Jimi_Neutral | can anyone help me with a ddrescue situation please | 09:25 |
TheNewGuy | wigg, thanks for your time. i'll have to get this working tomarrow | 09:25 |
Garp | hermitmode: offline, I have no downloads... | 09:25 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: I take it I royally fucked something up? | 09:25 |
Nehyx | Garp: I always used ubuntu with internet, and if you hasn't got internet, updates are innecesary ;-) | 09:26 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: you could try this too.. "sudo update-alternatives --config java" and select "/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java" this might fix it | 09:26 |
Garp | Nehyx: it fix bugs, allow for new pkgs, etc. | 09:26 |
Nehyx | Garp: yes, but the most bugs are security | 09:26 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: alright man.. have a good night.. but try those last steps.. install the msttcorefonts and change the java config | 09:26 |
Garp | Nehyx: or enhancements. | 09:27 |
Nehyx | Garp: and the most packets, firefox, evolution... needs internet | 09:27 |
Garp | Nehyx: I know that a internet is good, but in that case, I dont have. | 09:27 |
n2diy | mrmental: that is an ntfs partition, you need ext3 | 09:27 |
TheNewGuy | There is only 1 program which provides java (/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java). Nothing to configure. | 09:27 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, yes. | 09:27 |

DysonReturns | both running ubuntu | 09:28 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, Yeah. If you got a usb drive, copy all your 'doze files over there for safekeeping | 09:28 |
Nehyx | Garp: try to install new packets from another PC, I never tested that :P | 09:28 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: you need to install the package again then.. "sudo apt-get --reinstall install ubuntu-restricted-extras" should do it.. (prolly cause of the packages that were missing before) | 09:28 |
dragger | i think the Services i stoped is "System communication bus" | 09:28 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Ok I need to get my neighbors external hdd but that will hav eto wait until morning proper. And then? | 09:29 |
Garp | Nehyx: well, there are a few problems. You want to be able to perform 'apt-get update' and then 'apt-get upgrade' | 09:29 |
aacosta | thats the weiredest thing i can nly ssh to my server when im on the wired network not on the wireless | 09:29 |
TheNewGuy | ok, loaded, checking java | 09:29 |
Garp | Nehyx: "downloading pkgs you need' is "apt-get upgrade" | 09:29 |
Nehyx | Garp: you can buy a wifi in ebay, and go to free wifi zones :) | 09:30 |
edouardp | aacosta, the wireless gives you the same range of IPs ? (I assume you use DHCP) | 09:30 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, hold on, actually. I need to google and rule out the possibility that the ubuntu installer can try to install everything into an ntfs partition side by side with windows | 09:30 |
duke_ | is it because of NoScript i already passed the sites on whitelist still crashing when i connect | 09:30 |
TheSage | Is there a place I could get a block diagram map of the Ubuntu system? | 09:30 |
aacosta | i use dhcp on everyting except the eeepc | 09:30 |
WIGGMPk | TheNewGuy: if it doesnt work.. then ill try and catch you tomorrow.. i can hardly stay awake right now lol sorry | 09:30 |
edouardp | qe2eqe, I think only wubi can do that | 09:30 |
Garp | Nehyx: If you have some money to give me,, I can have internet access ofor that machine, if you dont, we'll do without. | 09:30 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Well right now the installer isn't reading the hdd because I unmounted it | 09:30 |
aacosta | because it was giving me problems with the wireless | 09:30 |
aacosta | so i had to put in the ips manually | 09:30 |
aacosta | jsut for this conection | 09:31 |
TheNewGuy | hey man, THANK YOU for hanging in there with me. | 09:31 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, fdisk always knows what partitions are around | 09:31 |
aacosta | my home network | 09:31 |
WIGGMPk | =) | 09:31 |
edouardp | aacosta, the ssh server is in your LAN or on the internet ? | 09:31 |
aacosta | it works fine when im plugged into ethernet | 09:31 |
aacosta | LAN | 09:31 |
dragger | need help please myh keyboard and mouse stops responed | 09:31 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, the output of fdisk says you only have one partition | 09:31 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Ok | 09:32 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, which is impossible if you installed ubuntu and still have it installed | 09:32 |
edouardp | aacosta, can you give me the ip of the ssh server, and the ip of the client when you are on wireless ? maybe you are not on the same network | 09:32 |
dragger | in the login screen i cannot use my keyboard or mouse >>>>>>>>>>>??????????????????? | 09:32 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: ah but I never installed ubuntu, the partitioner fucked up | 09:32 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, oh. ok then. | 09:32 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Got something along the lines of 'Failed to Partition, Aborting' or something | 09:33 |
aacosta | 192.168.1.2 | 09:33 |
aacosta | 192.168.1.10 | 09:33 |

chocobanana | Hello everyone!!!! | 09:33 |
edouardp | aacosta, ok, are you able to ping the ssh machine ? | 09:33 |
dragger | hello, when i try to disable service i disabled one but i don't know what is it, my pc restared then when it on Login screen keyboard and mouse Stop responed | 09:34 |
aacosta | no im not | 09:34 |
aytekin | How can i use the tracert command in the terminal like cmd in winxp | 09:34 |
edouardp | aacosta, and you can navigate on the internet without any problem I guess ? | 09:34 |
Superninja | Im not too. | 09:34 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, I don't think windows failed to mount entirely... theres only 512 bytes of program, and I don't really think thats enough for windows to fit a disk scanner that can't even find the disk | 09:34 |
aacosta | yeah | 09:34 |
n2diy | aytekin: traceroute? | 09:35 |
aacosta | everything seems fine | 09:35 |
aacosta | thats why im trippin | 09:35 |
Superninja | yes everything seems fine | 09:35 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, (the program is either mbr or it's on a mounted partition. ) | 09:35 |
edouardp | aacosta, it might be your router that is preventing wireless client to communicate with the rest of the lan | 09:35 |
duke_ | everyone gets help besides me kk :/ | 09:35 |
aytekin | i dont know how to like | 09:35 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Hmm. So perhaps I should restart and try to boot windows again? | 09:35 |
edouardp | aacosta, I have an option in my netgear (called wireless isolation) which prevents wireless clients to see the lan, they can only access the internet | 09:35 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, yeah. Try running in safe mode... | 09:35 |
Superninja | Internet port is 5765, no 8796 | 09:36 |
aytekin | just i know tracert command in xp | 09:36 |
dragger | no one can help me????????????????????? | 09:36 |
Superninja | I can | 09:36 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Ok I will try and see what I can do, can I get your email incase shit hits the fan? | 09:36 |
aacosta | i have a netgear | 09:36 |
dragger | Superninja ????? | 09:36 |
Superninja | ??????? | 09:36 |

edouardp | aacosta, ok, so log in (http://192.168.1.1) and go to wireless settings | 09:37 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: hmm? | 09:37 |
dragger | hello, when i try to disable service i disabled one but i don't know what is it, my pc restared then when it on Login screen keyboard and mouse Stop responed | 09:37 |

aytekin | example i ve used in xp tracert www.example.com | 09:37 |
Superninja | lool | 09:37 |
Daverocks | aytekin: as n2diy said, the command in linux is "traceroute" as opposed to "tracert". you may need to do "sudo traceroute" in ubuntu | 09:38 |

kante | guys, I'm trying to capture video from my video camera through firewire and Kino. The problem is that video and audio are BADLY unsynchronized (sorry for my English). What can I do? | 09:47 |
^Phantom^ | I've noticed my hard disk light flashing all evening now | 09:47 |
jerrrooome | Daverocks : I will try it out | 09:48 |
Butcher | eh - I just rebooted, it worked :D | 09:48 |
n2diy | kuro: ok, try apps-add/remove, and look for the keyboard switcher. | 09:48 |
^Phantom^ | this constant hard disk activity is starting to worry me... | 09:48 |
Daverocks | ^Phantom^: haven't used ubuntu in some time but i really don't think so | 09:48 |
aacosta | xubuntu | 09:48 |
kuro | kk | 09:48 |
kuro | n2diy: kk | 09:48 |
Butcher | the sudo (idonotrememberwhat) got me locked at a grub themed screen | 09:49 |

aacosta | let me go turn it on | 09:49 |

kante | guys, I'm trying to capture video from my video camera through firewire and Kino. The problem is that video and audio are BADLY unsynchronized (sorry for my English). What can I do? | 09:50 |
hermitmode | jerroome: Try http://divfixpp.sourceforge.net/download.php | 09:50 |
ttmrichter | tenach: Man, these PPAs have come out of nowhere for me. Lots of interesting stuff there I wish I'd known before. :) | 09:50 |
n2diy | Jimi_Neutral: I doubt it, but I'm having issues with sbackup and restore, so maybe? | 09:50 |
neil_d | Hi, I am having trouble doing a bind mount :( I have a nfs mount drive at /media/storage and I am trying to bind mount a subdir to /home/neil/.ssh... In /etc/fstab I have "/media/storage/share/neil/.ssh /home/neil/.ssh auto bind" and in /etc/rc.local I have "mount --bind /media/storage/share/neil/.ssh /home/neil/.ssh"... but nothing is happing :( what am I doing wrong? | 09:50 |
Daverocks | !ask | Jimi_Neutral | 09:50 |
ubottu | Jimi_Neutral: 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. :-) | 09:50 |
hermitmode | kante: webcam model? | 09:51 |
pedestrianentran | whats the ubuntu way to permanently add a variable to my PATH? i understand the export command won't save the change between reboots? | 09:51 |
qe2eqe | hermitmode, i bet it's not a webcam? | 09:51 |
hermitmode | pedestrianentran: try sudo nano /etc/environment | 09:51 |
hermitmode | pedestrianentran: try sudo nano /etc/environment then reboot | 09:51 |
kante | hermitmode: it's a digital cam, SOny Digital Handycam | 09:51 |
kuro | n2diy: nothing at all :/ | 09:52 |
Jimi_Neutral | Sorry i didnt realise i did ask to ask a question....i thought i only asked one.....well i need some major help with it as i have been helped up to a point but now i need more help, so it kind of needs a private chat tbh so th room doesnt get flooded | 09:52 |
pedestrianentran | hermitmode: Hmm i was just looking in /etc/profile | 09:52 |
kuro | n2diy: in keyboard window. i have the hotkey switch set to alt+shift. but it does not work... | 09:52 |
hermitmode | kante: ohhh my bad did not read it all... | 09:52 |
n2diy | kuro: ok, right or left? | 09:52 |
edouardp | pedestrianentran, you can look on your .bashrc/.bash_profile too | 09:53 |
kuro | n2diy: it doesn't say in the list. just alt+shift. thats it | 09:53 |
kante | hermitmode what d'you mean? | 09:53 |
xarvh | just launching the 'amule' in ubuntu jaunty launches no graphical interface whatsoever... Am I launching some sort of server? If so how do I get the client? | 09:53 |
hermitmode | kante: sorry i thought your using a webcam? | 09:53 |
qe2eqe | hermitmode, no, not your bad. remember also he said bad english. | 09:54 |
pedestrianentran | edouardp:thanks | 09:54 |
hermitmode | pedestrianentran: just try sudo nano /etc/environment | 09:54 |
ubuntu | d | 09:54 |
kante | hermitmode: nope :) It's an ordinary digital camera, pretty old though | 09:54 |
n2diy | kuro: ok, see if the right or left combination works. And/or right click on the panel where your clock is, and try add/remove from there. | 09:54 |

tenach | ttmrichter: They make life easier, don't they? | 09:54 |
pedestrianentran | hermitmode: this is where i get a bit confused. THere seem to be so many places to change it... Which is the right one/ | 09:55 |
ttmrichter | tenach: Easier than waiting forever for backports certainly! :D | 09:55 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Windows is still fucked, how do I get it back to where I can view the contents of my hdd through File System? | 09:55 |
qe2eqe | kante, if a movie doesn't play back right in a properly configured player, it's been encoded poorly. This might be a problem with the way your camera records. | 09:55 |
Seeker` | !language | mrmental | 09:55 |
ubottu | mrmental: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 09:55 |
tenach | ttmrichter: Backports are too slow. | 09:55 |
mrmental | ubottu: My apologies | 09:55 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about My apologies | 09:55 |
mrmental | Bah bots | 09:56 |
Butcher | :D | 09:56 |
xarvh | :D | 09:56 |
pedestrianentran | :) | 09:56 |
kante | qe2eqe: maybe.. is there any solutions? Or do I have to manually synchronize video every time I record it? | 09:56 |
mrmental | XD | 09:56 |
hermitmode | pedestrianentran: at the end put your additional path... | 09:56 |
^Phantom^ | I can't determine what is making the disk keep reading/writing constantly. | 09:56 |
^Phantom^ | Or is ubuntu supposed to constantly read/write to the hard drive? | 09:56 |
=== ck is now known as Guest65764 |
hermitmode | pedestrianentran: or you can just put your VARIABLE="" at the next linee | 09:57 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, mkdir /mnt/sda1 && mount ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 -o force | 09:57 |
kuro | n2diy: IM HAVing problems now. i can:t use the backspace it became *]* ahhh alot of my keys are switched around but still no japanese | 09:57 |
aacosta | sorry roomate asleep | 09:57 |
kante | ^Phantom^: any torrents or ftp-servers running? | 09:57 |
aacosta | shouldnt have let her have the imac | 09:57 |

hermitmode | pedestrianentran: or you can just put your VARIABLE="" at the next line Then reboot.. | 09:57 |
aacosta | macosx | 09:57 |
jerrrooome | Daverocks : mplayer isn't able to fix it either, I get marker does not match f_code as error. Any ideas ?? | 09:57 |
^Phantom^ | no... | 09:57 |
^Phantom^ | wait... | 09:57 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, I have a hypothesis i'd like confirmed by a vet... but perhaps you could just get fdisk to rewrite the partition table | 09:57 |
Justin15 | hey everyone, can somebody help me installing the new firefox-3.5rc3.tar.bz2?? | 09:58 |
n2diy | kuro: hmm, but can you switch between japanese and your other layout? I only play with english, and english-dvorak. | 09:58 |
svj | I need help for JeOS and keyboard mapping | 09:58 |
kbrosnan | Justin15: extract to some place run firefox | 09:58 |
^Phantom^ | no none running | 09:58 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: I think the spacing is wrong on your mount command? And that won't format or otherwise harm the files on my hdd if I rewrite the partition table will it? | 09:58 |
kante | strange | 09:59 |
Daverocks | jerrrooome: sounds like the actual stream is borked | 09:59 |
edouardp | aacosta, :D | 09:59 |
Dulak | mrmental: if the problem is a deleted partition, rewriting the partition table will not restore files | 09:59 |
=== username_ is now known as Rods_Tiger |
aacosta | haha yeah i also have a imac snow | 09:59 |
hermitmode | hermitmode will goto sagemode --- gtg guys... UBUNTU ROCKS HARD | 09:59 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, mkdir /mnt/sda1 && mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 -o force | 09:59 |
jerrrooome | that's what I'm afraid of | 09:59 |
aacosta | this one im using running jaunty | 09:59 |
^Phantom^ | i think it's been doing it for a couple of days now... | 09:59 |
jacatone | could someone help me set up a new account using xchat? | 09:59 |
jerrrooome | however, ty | 09:59 |
Daverocks | ^Phantom^: try using lsof and iostat to determine what the culprit is | 09:59 |
^Phantom^ | k | 10:00 |
kuro | n2diy: i dont: think i ever enable japanese keyboard, but i was messing around with one of the settings. and thats why i backspace got changed. but still no japanese | 10:00 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, yeah, it's possible. if you can wait till morning and back it up first, I'd do that | 10:00 |
Justin15 | kbrosnan:thank you very much i didn't think about it :) | 10:00 |
^Phantom^ | woah | 10:00 |
^Phantom^ | lonnnnnnnng list :S | 10:01 |
svj | dpkg reconfigure console setup does not change my keyboard layout. Any ideas on how to change to danish qwerty keyboard latin1 | 10:01 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, but even if you do erase your partition table, your data should be mostly safe, although you could lose file names. | 10:01 |
Daverocks | jerrrooome: np, i'm not a video person though, try asking in #mplayer #ffmpeg or #videolan | 10:01 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Yeah I would like to back up everything that needs be and then I can try the partition table rewrite. Perhaps I will through in my Xp Recovery Cd for safe measure too | 10:01 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, safe as in recoverable, but not friendly. | 10:01 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: well that is good to head | 10:01 |
n2diy | kuro: ok, if you didn't enable japanese keyboard, how do you expect to switch to it? Anyway, 5am here, going to bed, gl. | 10:01 |
mrmental | **hear | 10:01 |
^Phantom^ | i'll pastebin the iostat | 10:02 |
qe2eqe | qe2eqe, i'd have tried the recover cd by now =) | 10:02 |
mrmental | qe2eqe: Is there any way I can contact you in the morning? | 10:02 |
qe2eqe | mrmental, oops, i just talked to myself | 10:02 |
kuro | n2diy: lol, i think you misunderstood me. but thank you for the help. | 10:02 |
