[00:00] Actually, if you go into Synaptic, you can remove everything nvidia related [00:00] modprobe inserts kernel modules and can unrun em i suppose, [00:00] hmm, what causes audio to stop playing when I control+alt+f1? [00:00] phoenix_andthor, yeah i know [00:01] but the problem is the `this kernel module has the version 180.37.05` vs `API mismatch: the client has the version 190.09` [00:01] so i'm gonna rip out the 190.09 right now, but even then i'll still have the remainders of the 190.37 [00:01] er 180.37.05 rather; so are there any nvidia experts? [00:01] español' [00:01] !esp [00:01] Sorry, I don't know anything about esp [00:01] Sound problem: I have Via AC97 onboard sound, it doesn't work. Ubuntu detects the hardware.

[00:02] !es [00:02] I'm not an nvidia expert, but I think you go in as root and manually remove the modules, assuming of course that are not compiled into the kernel itself [00:02] phoenix_andthor, they are lol [00:02] You have to sudo modprobe... [00:02] has anyone else noticed audio they start in X stop playing when you drop down to a text shell with control+alt+f1? [00:03] snake: let me try that... [00:03] it is driving me crazy [00:03] even if I start audio with mpg321 or mpg123, or whatever in x, it still does it [00:03] snake: that's just you. cmus gives me audio in tty1. [00:03] nekostar: Number 1, why the hell did you compile nvidia anything into the kernel?! 2, you will need to recompile your whole kernel from scratch [00:03] <`SKAP> anyone configured an OTRS system before? [00:04] Rabbitbunny: you started audio in X, and dropped to a text terminal to see if it still played? [00:04] Cheese is performing badly despite Option "Clone" "true" being in my xorg.conf - what shall I do? [00:04] And somebody tell me how to do private messaging in IRC [00:04] snake: Well, cmus is cli, But yes. [00:04] hmm, interesting [00:04] /msg [00:04] phoenix_andthor: /msg ... Rabbitbunny got to it first. [00:04] interesting [00:04] if I start audio in one TTY, and I switch to another, the sound stops [00:04] I have a Model M, It's not fair. [00:05] After suspend I can't start system. SWAP was changed. What do? [00:05] wtf is going on [00:05] if I switch back, the audio plays fine [00:05] brb [00:05] I wonder if this is pulse audio related [00:05] Hmm. maybe approach from that tty asif audio isn't workig at all, and see what it tells you?

[00:12] wait, got it, scroll wheel magic... [00:13] any way to use livecd or alternative cd to reinstall ubuntu by just overwriting files without it formatting the drive? [00:14] is there a way in ubuntu to find out what sound chip is being reported to the os ? [00:14] how can i get the network ID i'm connected to right now from the command line?

I made a new one but there was no default one... [00:21] Hi, is anybody familiar with how UPnP works? [00:21] What's the optimal -j number when running make on a machine with 512mb ram and a 3.4ghz P4 HyperThreaded CPU? [00:22] I'm curious if I can use it in Totem, or if I'm missing some core functionality... [00:22] phoenix_andthor, yeah im on Ubuntu why cant you use /mnt with apache? [00:22] That's strange. When you use the tool that ships with Ubuntu to make a live USB, it usually puts one on there [00:22] hi [00:22] I'm guessing it goes in the casper directory cuz I made it with unetbootin [00:24] dragonlinux: you checked volume control to see nothing muted and volume is up? [00:24] how do i fix it when apt-get returns this message? E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) [00:24] I'd start praying.

[00:35] i think i have to remake the dpkg files, or something..this happened to me before and i think i did something like that [00:35] Zopiac: what is the command you are trying to run when you get that? === _brEz is now known as brEz [00:36] ????? [00:37] I used suspend and start other OS, now first OS doesn't start. What do? [00:37] legend2440: those two commands that the post said, just with sudo attached to each [00:37] anyone here use Evolution Mail?

[00:39] If you're feeling adventurous, do experimental stuff [00:39] legend2440: sudo apt-get install libgtk2* [00:39] on a computer that you do not intend to use for anything important [00:40] libgtk2?

[00:40] phoenix_andthor, =) why not just switch to gentoo [00:40] phoenix_andthor: x86_64 [00:41] Zopiac: is this the command you used before ? sudo dpkg --configure -a [00:41] i think so [00:41] how can I open irc links in firefox with xchat? [00:41] http://example.com [00:41] MaT-dg: Pay me and I'll tell you. [00:41] Zopiac, what does the tailing asterisk do? [00:42] MaT-dg, right click and click open in browser [00:42] legend2440: i am 90% sure of it, but now i get http://pastebin.com/m59c43942 [00:42] qe2eqe: it installs anything that starts with libgtk2 and ends with something else, be it nothing or something like -deb [00:42] These domain names are reserved for use in documentation. cool. example.com [00:42] urgh... does anyone know how long a kernel takes to compile? [00:42] congrats, you now have a su account issue [00:42] qe2eqe, yeah, nice eh? [00:43] actually, i should advertised my site as the example :P [00:43] tsrk: I mean the other way, a link in firefox (irc://...) and clicking on it opens xchat (or other irc client) [00:43] Can anyone tell me the command to connect to other servers? [00:43] tsrk, ;/ [00:43] MaT-dg, oh, um, no idea sorry. I'll see if I can find it on google (nothing better to do now) [00:43] tsrk: thx ^^ [00:44] please stop spamming the chat its kind of anoying [00:44] MaT-dg: Run this in terminal --> gconftool -s --type string /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/irc/command "/usr/bin/xchat --existing --url=\"%s\"" <--- and still pay me. [00:45] Zopiac, thanks. You must have reasons for specifying the library like that instead of letting dependencies figure it out [00:45] Greetings all [00:45] Thank you.

[00:48] Zopiac: can you browse to folder /var/cache/apt/archives and see if folder partial and file lock are there? [00:48] legend2440: ls: cannot access /var/cache/apt/archives/: No such file or directory [00:48] MaT-dg: Give me an URL with irc link in it. [00:48] legend2440: i believe i accidentally rm -rf'd that [00:49] Zopiac: ok 1 sec [00:49] sorry technical problem :) [00:49] When's the pidgin package going to get updated in the Jaunty repo? [00:49] Zopiac: read posts 2 and 3 http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/varcacheaptarchiveslock-error-457486/ [00:49] mobi-sheep, http://www.tsrk.net/docs/irc-link [00:50] FatherTyme you want to update pidgin2.5.7 ? [00:50] Zopiac, that would do it [00:50] tsrk: mobi-sheep: In firefox I changed something (thought it was the handler for irc), edit > preferences > applications, and pointed content type 'irc' to usr/bin/xchat. Now it opens xchat without connecting to the server and joining the channel, de command from mobi-sheep had no effect on that behaviour [00:51] !yahoo [00:51] At the moment there are many pidgin users experiencing problems connecting to Yahoo IM, you can try changing your paging server to cs101.msg.mud.yahoo.com and see if that helps. [00:51] MaT-dg, 1 sec, i'll find my settings for that (which seem to be working) [00:51] has anyone every seen or heard of a game that runs a linux dis and has built in apps to connets to a server.? it's a cross between Hitman and some kinds world search game [00:52] bastidrazor: that will not solve the problem!!! [00:52] shorterror, it is a possible workaround.. you can use the PPA from pidgin if it doesn't [00:52] Zopiac, sudo apt-get install libgtk* -s shows me a list of what might be trying to happen with your system. I would think alot of these packages are conflicting [00:52] shorterror, and it has worked for many others. [00:52] bastidrazor: i have 2.5.7 so i am ok.. [00:53] Husaini: Yes. [00:53] MaT-dg, go back there and set it to "always ask" and open an irc link. Then it will give you the correct xchat option, and you can check the box to always use xchat and it should work. [00:54] FatherTyme, http://pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ if you want to use the PPA from pidgin [00:54] MaT-dg: Did you ran the command I gave you? === paulcdancer is now known as Nanaki [00:55] ah [00:55] u so fast than me [00:55] :D [00:55] does anyone know how to boot a cd through dosbox? [00:55] mobi-sheep: yes, it had no effect on the current behaviour [00:55] MaT-dg, did you try what i said? [00:55] Thank you bastidrazor. [00:55] fahertyme follow bastidrazor advise :) [00:55] tsrk: doing atm [00:56] does anyone know how to run dosbox? i have a game i would like to play through it [00:57] tsrk: it ask me what program I want to use but it doesn't give me other options, just opens xchat without connecting and joining the channel again.. [00:57] Nanaki: dosbox ~/Desktop/SillyGame/sg.exe [00:57] anybody in here have a dell e1705/9400/xps 1710 with ubuntu installed? [00:57] MaT-dg, ok, 1 moment, i'll look at my "xchat" option and see what it's really doing [00:57] GenericNode what the problem ? [00:58] mobi-sheep, will that work if the game is on a cd? [00:58] Husaini, I'm curious about thermal management with the nVidia 7900GS that is included on some of those models. [00:58] Husaini, I know you can use dellfand, but that only appears to control the CPU fan, not the GPU fan. [00:58] GenericNode its will automatic searching in your hardware drivers . [00:58] Nanaki: Not sure, but you should be okay. As long as you do this --> "dosbox /full/path/to/the/file/game.exe [00:58] and relying on the BIOS isn't the best of idea's. I know since I've already burned up one 7900GS [00:59] MaT-dg, sorry, i can't seem to find a way to see what it's doing [00:59] Husaini, uhm, my issue isn't with finding a driver... [01:00] GenericNode: You're using the latest bio? I flashed my Dell XPS M1530 bio other day from A07 to A12. :) [01:00] you already try envy ?

But what changes were made in A12? [01:01] EnvyNG is a program to install newer version of nVidia or ATi drivers, it can be found in !Universe as "envyng-gtk" (for Gtk/Gnome) or "envyng-qt" (for Qt/KDE). It is NOT a supported method to install video drivers; please only use it if standard methods fail and at your own risk - See also !BinaryDriver [01:01] !envy | GenericNode> [01:01] GenericNode>: please see above [01:01] !envy | GenericNode [01:01] GenericNode: please see above [01:02] I'm not sure as though you quite understand my question. Even the nVidia driver doesn't turn the fans on at a threshold that I would like. [01:02] tsrk: no problem, I appreciate your effort :) [01:02] hi all [01:02] heh [01:02] I've left thermal management to the nVidia drivers and all it got me was a fried card. [01:03] GenericNode: i *hate* to ask this... but are you sure the fan is plugged into the card? [01:03] MaT-dg, the only sure way I can think of is exporting the important options from firefox (bookmarks etc) and resetting all the firefox settings and importing the stuff you want [01:03] I installed the firefox 3.5 and im not getting any sound im running it on 9.04 NBR [01:03] GenericNode: Wow. You got a new card? [01:03] MaT-dg, i'm sure there's an easier way but i can't say what it is [01:03] haha [01:04] Ok guys. In Windows world you use 18kfangui, which can force GPU fan to high. Is there a linux alternative, since the nVidia driver fails to manage it properly and dellfand will only engage the CPU fan. [01:04] and if you dont even know what dellfand is, please do not try to help. [01:04] hello [01:04] alguien habla español? [01:04] mobi-sheep, yea, Ebay $240. [01:04] mobi-sheep: I restored the settings like it was before (gives a notification that firefox doesn't know how to open 'irc') and ran your command again but still doesn't work [01:04] got one very serious annoyance and I looked google but it does not work [01:04] gartral, Yes, of course it is plugged in.

Right click (or the touch equivalent) on then menu bar and click preferences. then look for the dpi box and increase the number.

[02:17] does anyone have the correct broadcom 43xx driver, i'm about to pull my hair out trying to get this darn thing to work [02:17] dva59121, please read this link about ram usage by linux: http://www.linuxatemyram.com/ [02:17] danbhfive: well, sure, that's where I saw the ata errors [02:17] GnuSeb: i think these drivers will work http://software.canon-europe.com/download.asp [02:18] mrksbrd: I only got broadcom 43xx to work with ndiswrapper [02:18] legend2440, I'm on hardy [02:18] iamtechno : why do you ask? [02:18] nicest Qso bye [02:18] i can't even get it to work thru ndiswrapper [02:18] mrksbrd: then I spent $30 on a new wifi card (intel) and it works muuuuch better [02:18] pjz: ata errors sound bad. May install smartmontools, and check the S.M.A.R.T. stats [02:18] I dunno though [02:18] GnuSeb: you tried those already? [02:19] danbhfive: it's a new drive, and the od one did the same even though it had no other errors [02:19] built into the laptop.........uuuuhhhhhggggg [02:19] legend2440, which of them all? I can't find the one for the ip1900 [02:19] Thats a cool website [02:19] mrksbrd: 'built in' may not mean what you think. mine was a pcie card in my laptop and I just replaced it. [02:19] mrksbrd: what kind of laptop? [02:19] BellinXFelon, about what? Sorry I'm doing like 5 things at once trying to help out and watch family guy. [02:19] Thanks bobzillion [02:19] losher - thanks! getmail works great! super simple! much easier! now i just need to integrate it with RT [02:19] I am searching for a file verification tool widely available on *nix flavors; wondering if md5 is still recommended and simplest or if there is another method / tool recommended? [02:20] dva59121, no problem. [02:20] pjz: then it must be just a motherboard driver issue? if that's it, you should file a bug report I think [02:20] HP dv9730us [02:20] ook found it [02:20] i had it working on 8.04 [02:20] saliak: excellent news! [02:20] now all of a sudden .....upgrade fresh install and nothing [02:20] iamtechno : about the file sharing? [02:20] 9.04 install btw [02:21] danbhfive: okay, right, so... what info should I provide? I think I read someting recently that this might be a known problem but I'm having trouble finding out if that's the case or not [02:21] legend2440, theres a tarball, so i download it and then clickl on it? [02:21] GnuSeb: download the Debian drivers here http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010647.asp [02:21] Compared to XP how well will ubuntu handle my laptops battery? [02:22] dva59121, what proc is in your laptop? [02:22] GnuSeb: yes download tar then right click it and Extract [02:22] legend2440, I am saving the tar file, once i got it what do i do? do i click on it and it does its thing? do i have to connect hte printer to it first [02:22] or can i install the driver rfrist [02:22] Intel centreno [02:22] GnuSeb: yes download tar then right click it and Extract [02:22] bobzillion: Intel Centreno Mobile [02:22] pjz: any ideas? [02:22] dva59121: it usually handles it fairly well, though things may be a little more 'manual' than XP [02:23] GnuSeb: yes download tar then right click it and Extract. inside will be 3 files install the two deb files [02:23] dva59121: about the same battery life, according to comments I've seen on here, though some people report excessive fan usage in Ubuntu on some laptop models [02:23] is there any demand or playability for a 2d rpg, with font-like or retro graphics? [02:23] eross: like nethack? [02:23] guys flash videos do not play on my computer, yet on another ubuntu machine they do, whats wrong [02:24] aplay wont play [02:24] david___, what browser are you using? if FF, do you use noscript? [02:24] yes ff, not sure if i use noscript [02:24] aplay wont play it just gives me screaming static* [02:25] sure but somewhat better looking :) [02:25] is it possible to set my ping timeout to less than 1 second? [02:25] BellinXFelon, Because there is probably a way to file share to windows without changing partitiions. [02:25] david___, you'd prolly know, but check your extensions anyway. [02:25] mrksbrd: ok, I'll bite. What does 'nothing' mean, exactly....? [02:25] iamtechno : oh i see [02:26] legend2440, how do i install the deb files? [02:26] mrksbrd: looking at the maint manual [02:26] is anyone familiar with the program nicotine plus which is based off of soulseek p2p filesharing client? [02:26] GnuSeb: right click and choose gdebi installer [02:26] BellinXFelon, I would try to find out for you but I know nothing about filesharing. You might ask in here about howto setup a windows/ubuntu file share and see if someone else knows. [02:27] !samba | BellinXFelon [02:27] BellinXFelon: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. [02:27] mrksbrd: looks like it's possible. See http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01295898.pdf page 58 or so [02:27] david___, has flash ever worked on that machine? [02:27] Sylphid: not according to the man page. What are you trying to do? [02:27] yes it did in windows and other flash things work just not videos [02:28] Not sure where else to ask this.. Is is possible for Digest HTTP Auth to transcend across subdomains? [02:28] jim____: no [02:28] register soturi2010 sm.volkov@mail.ru [02:28] jigp_: any sort of HTTP auth [02:28] jim____: er. I don't think so. but yeah, wrong place to ask. try stackoverflow or someplace like that. [02:28] how do i make a usplash theme, and where do i find the currently existing ones? [02:29] pjz: ah stack's not a bad idea. thanks [02:29] losher, just trying to verify how frequently my response time is over 50ms [02:29] david___, check your file associations in FF [02:29] bobzillion: how> [02:30] pjz: i think i finally found something too [02:30] * mrksbrd is crossing his fingers [02:30] Hi, what's the easiest way to set up a raid 1 with two disks? [02:30] I've been looking at manuals and the like, but it's all very.... confusing [02:31] cornwall: mdadm is what you want [02:31] !nvidia > me [02:31] legend2440, please see my private message [02:31] losher, was hoping i could set the timeout by ms to something like 50ms to get a fairly accurate percentage [02:31] this is what a video looks like http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/8665/screenshotjat.png [02:31] pjz: I'm guessing there's no GUI, then? [02:31] david___, in FF, edit>preferences. at the top, look at "applications" [02:32] !usplash | Zopiac [02:32] Zopiac: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork [02:32] david___, in the search box, begin typing, 'flash' [02:32] Sylphid: in that case, I would run ping periodically & parse the output. You could even graph the ping times if you're handy enough at scripting.... [02:32] cornwall: mmm. not that I know of. [02:33] pjz: it appears thus: basic http auth cannot do this, but apache's mod_auth_digest can actually specify more with AuthDigestDomain directive. However, there's an IE6 bug such that it won't work. However again, as of Apache 2.0.51 there's a workaround to avoid the bug. [02:33] yea two things popped up under flash [02:34] jim____: wow. I figured it wouldn't work at all. very cool. [02:35] david, what things appeared? was one of them 'flash video'? [02:35] when using vim in insert mode, my arrow keys are typing characters (the characters used to move the cursor when not in insert mode) rather than moving the cursor. I'm using bash and intrepid ibex. How do I fix this so the arrow keys always move the cursor? [02:35] legend2440, I tried opening one of the deb files and it says Error: dependency is not satisfiable [02:35] what am i suposed to do? [02:36] david___, , what things appeared? was one of them 'flash video'? Also, do you have xine installed? [02:36] trippssss: the typical answer is "stop using arrows for movement!!" - in my experience though if the arrows don't work you're using vi not vim === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log [02:36] What dependency? [02:36] GnuSeb: did you install cnijfilter-common_3.00-1_i386.deb ? [02:36] !build [02:36] Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [02:36] well what is the path to the default usplash image? [02:36] is the generic kernal optimized well for dual core cpu or should i install/ compile different kernel [02:37] bobzillion: shockwave flash file appeared twice / i do not have wine [02:37] bobzillion: srry i do not have xin [02:37] bobzillion: xine [02:37] legend2440, I dont know i startd doing so then it went into not responding and i dont know if it ccrashed orit did, i am doing it again now but again it's not responding [02:37] join #eclipse [02:37] jim____, ah you would be correct! usually on systems with vim, vi is just a symlink. weird. [02:37] the package installer that is legend2440 [02:37] trippssss: it is true, however, that using the arrows while in insert mode is not very vi-like. try to get out of the habit [02:37] join #eclipse [02:37] david___, do you have a line that says, 'flash video'? [02:38] zacktu: try: /join with a leading slash [02:38] trippssss: instead prefer to prefix hjkl with modifiers etc. another topic :) [02:38] some one help me a computer nerd fucked up my computer [02:38] GnuSeb: did error mention libcupsys2? [02:38] vicky_, watch the language [02:39] haha woops [02:39] vicky_, can you be a little more specific? [02:39] What's thebprob vicky? [02:39] let me check [02:39] he took off windows said linux would be better [02:39] vicky_: watch your language, please [02:39] and i know nothing bout linux [02:39] vicky_, we are all computer nerds here, feel at ease [02:39] help [02:39] It is better [02:40] help with what vicky_ [02:40] i know nothing bout computers [02:40] vicky_: lots of places on the 'net to learn. [02:40] Not unconditionally better. [02:40] vicky_, d you want to learn linux or reinstal windows? [02:40] i want my camfrog to work [02:40] i cant download nothing [02:40] vicky_: if you've managed to get here, you must know something. [02:40] Dunno if I'd feel comfy around a heap of computer nerds... [02:40] bobzillion: here is what i see http://img31.imageshack.us/img31/1204/screenshotfirefoxprefer.png [02:40] he put a icon that said xchat [02:40] No semantic pls [02:40] Vicky doesn't want to learn about computers on the net. She wants to use her computer - homeboy screwed her, frankly [02:40] Error: Dependency is not satisfiable:cnijfilter-common legend2440 [02:40] Linux is not unconditionally superior :\ [02:40] who is "homeboy" [02:40] vicky_: what are you trying to download? [02:41] * reduz brings the popcorn [02:41] camfrog [02:41] haha camfrog [02:41] what? [02:41] Who is expert with compiling softwares from sources? >_> [02:41] david___, do a search for 'video' and send me another link [02:41] mobi-sheep: nobody will claim that - simply ask the true question and hope [02:42] i downloaded cf and when i sign on it it logs me off [02:42] GnuSeb: did error mention libcupsys2? [02:42] I would say that when it comes to up time and stability it is superior [02:42] david___, it looks like you don't have the association made for video. [02:42] how do I enable PCF fonts on ubuntu? dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig gives me no option [02:42] Can someone help me get a U.W. Robotics USR5416 wireless card working? It worked fine in an old version of Kubuntu but not any version since [02:42] vicky_: yeah, you're kind of hosed. find the nerd that did this to you and drag him over to your machine by his ears and make him fix it. And by 'fix it' I mean make him make your computer able to do all the things you want to do day to day. [02:42] where should it mention it legend2440 ? nope, it hasnt [02:42] GnuSeb: can i pm? [02:42] he wont come back and fix it [02:42] yes sure [02:42] legend2440, [02:43] vicky_: second pjz here. also tell him to stop being a zealot and using you as a guinea pig. angry nerds on the internet SAID SO [02:43] vicky_, do you have your windows recovery CDs? [02:43] hi all [02:43] i was happy with windows i have no business being on this program [02:43] Vicky. U have a windows cd? [02:43] jim____, pjz stay on topic [02:43] no [02:43] i dont have it [02:43] mobi-sheep: what are you trying to compile? (Disclaimer: This does not constitute a claim to be an expert) [02:43] is there some official ubuntu developers channel? [02:43] bobzillion: here is the link http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/1204/screenshotfirefoxprefer.png [02:44] can i take my computer somewhere to get fix?> [02:44] haha [02:44] losher: OGMRIP --with-ocr=tesseract. [02:44] how did you mess up ubuntu? [02:44] i don't know how Ubuntu can be any more idiot-proof [02:44] david___, I'm checking resources. brb. [02:44] pedrosanta: there is, but it you weren't able to find it by yourself, I'm not sure you belong there [02:44] bazhang: huh? [02:44] losher: Do you know how I can disable some of the dependency flags? [02:44] ok [02:44] rhinoserious: lol right on [02:44] fair enough :) [02:44] vicky_, Darlin, what's the prob - just yer camera bit? [02:44] does anyone know if nicotine plus has the new server edition of soulseek [02:45] For some reason linux is IDing it as a ACX 111 card by Texas Instruments, I guess thats the chipset it uses [02:45] I run arch [02:45] vicky_: Just download windows =P [02:45] i just wanted to discuss some issues that could be relevant to further releases... [02:45] vicky, yes, you'll pay for it, but any computer shop should be able to reinstall windows for you [02:45] i know i'll have to pay [02:45] Look for tinyxp. [02:45] dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config should give me options... but the command gives me no return. is that working as expected? [02:45] mobi-sheep: dependency flags? [02:45] vicky_: what's your problem? [02:45] vicky why dont you like linux? [02:45] but i was happy before i had everything going good [02:46] what's wrong? [02:46] i have no clue how to use it and it wont let me dl anything [02:46] rhinoserious: she's trying to get camfrog to work, which isn't going to happen as it's known to not work even under wine. [02:46] vicky_: you can download things. You just can't use the software you want. [02:47] so how can i get it to work [02:47] are you joking? [02:47] anyone know [02:47] it's not compatible under wine [02:47] Vicky. Google camfrog Linux see what it tells u to do [02:47] What IS Camfrog? [02:47] ok i'll try that brb [02:47] download.camfrog.com/serverlinux.phtml [02:47] that eas [02:48] it seriously took 2 seconds of googling [02:48] rhinoserious: that's the server, she wants a client [02:48] Ah...far out - yeah - heaps of info on Camfrog under linux - way cool...resolved! [02:48] Weak googlefu [02:48] rhinoserious: this is the server [02:48] derp [02:48] while using my ubuntu i felt the need for some a desktop widget system... [02:49] So anyone here good at getting wireless cards working? [02:49] like the one found on Android or something... [02:49] pedrosanta, Get "Screenlets" [02:49] Hum... [02:49] pedrosanta: kde. uh... plasma I think. [02:49] I've installed gDesklets... [02:49] Letś see how it goes... [02:50] pedrosanta, Screenlets, mate. Struth. [02:50] Ok :) [02:50] Next thing up then... I will install that... [02:50] it says could not open "camfrogsercer-4.2. noarch (5). rpm" archive type not supported [02:50] gDesklets widgets seemed to lack on quality [02:50] ??????? [02:51] pedrosanta: yes. i agree [02:51] while I was on that [02:51] pedrosanta: theres also the 'google widgits' stuff you can play with. [02:51] anyone know what taht means [02:51] Vicky. What linux do u have? [02:51] I though that having a widget system on Ubuntu out-of-the-box [02:51] could be a good thing... [02:51] ha i dont nkow [02:51] know [02:51] what do you think? [02:52] pedrosanta: 'gnome' dodent have widgigs by default.. KDE4 does. [02:52] hum ok... [02:52] vicky_, RPM packages aren't really for Ubuntu - however, if you've found RPM packages, I'm sure someone's done some DEB packages (they're for Ubuntu) [02:52] pedrosanta: i find most all the widgit stuff rather useless.. all i really use is a clock, a calander, and a weather gizmo. [02:52] didn't know that... [02:52] yes [02:52] losher: Err.. You know when you install a package. It pulls in another packages. That's based on build configuration. See, I'm trying to turn off few packages and use different packages. [02:52] losher - ahh, so i think i have to use fetchmail cause the incoming stuff needs to get passed to rt-mailgate.. but i think i have fetchmail working now (as well).. but now it tells me that the email is read but "not flushed" [02:52] that cairo-clock is one of the best looking clocks for the desktop. [02:52] but if you make it into social web tools like [02:52] he wrote on this disc xubuntu 8.10 [02:52] so where does it go if it's not flushed? [02:52] twitter updates and such [02:52] kinda makes sense... [02:53] it's like in that movie envy.. "hwere does the shit go?" [02:53] pedrosanta: i dont twitter.. plus i always fullscreen all apps. so i rarelys ee the widits anyway :) [02:53] yhea sure [02:53] pedrosanta: opera and google have some ok widgits also.. there may be others out as well [02:53] but i think it could deliver a more personalized experience to Ubuntu users.. [02:53] vicky_, looks like you have 2 choices, go back to windows with a restore or tr to learn the easiest linux ever, but whatever you choose there is only so much you will get here (a lot can be learned here- dont get me wrong) but gimmie a shout if you choose the latter [02:54] and maybe open new oportunities if we think about widget development... [02:54] pedrosanta: gnome is about keeping simple. If you want widgits - add them. [02:54] or I can be wrong also... :) [02:54] saliak: I'm guessing, but 'read but not flushed' implies to me that it read the mail but couldn't delete if from the server after downloading it. Are you telling me getmail won't pass the mail to program after downloading? [02:54] the whold 'widgit' scene - is very very 'chaotic' in many ways. [02:54] Gnome = "Gee, No Me!" :) [02:54] she can use VB [02:54] Dr_Willis: i understand you point of view... and in some extent agree with you... [02:54] i wouldnt mind learning this but it would be great if my cf worked [02:54] vicky_: do you know how to use virtual box? [02:55] he put it on [02:55] can u im me [02:55] on this [02:55] what? [02:55] how do i open a root folder so i can edit something in it [02:55] Vicky I messeged u [02:55] instant message [02:55] pedrosanta: as i said.. the only 3 'widgits' i (well the wife) had to have are Weather (no idea why she wants that) a Calander. and a big big big CLOCK. :) i can actually do all 3 of those features with a custome conky script. :) [02:55] ohh [02:55] If you use virtualBox then you can install XP in it and use camfrog on there [02:55] mobi-sheep: ambitious. Why not just use the prebuild packages from getdeb, or use the prescribed packages which are presumably known to work? [02:55] well bye all.. work time [02:56] losher: If you install stuff from the repos, it uses a binary package. [02:56] My wife IS a widget... [02:56] try compiling from source [02:56] YankDownUnder: click on her? [02:56] does anyone know if there is commercially available(legal) software for linux to play bluray [02:56] i want to open /usr/share/deluge folder with admin how i do it from terminal [02:56] dragon_, If I DO click on her, she slaps me. So I reckon it's a good widget. [02:56] mobi-sheep: planning to do some development, then? [02:57] MellowDude, gksu nautilus /usr/share/deluge [02:57] have you tried playing the bluray in VLC? [02:57] !ot > YankDownUnder [02:57] YankDownUnder, please see my private message [02:57] Hi can any one please tell me how to automatically modprobe ? I dont want to do it manuly after every reboot [02:58] scott_ino check your PM [02:58] timo1: what's your problem? [02:58] bye all. cheers. [02:58] !pure kde [02:58] Sorry, I don't know anything about pure kde [02:58] !purekde [02:58] If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » === sysdoc_ is now known as sysdoc === rhinoserious is now known as RhinoSerious [02:59] losher: Trying to learn how to compile stuffs so I can get ogmrip with better ocr supports (and probably). Also, many packages often come with recommendation packages (documentation, etc). [02:59] I dont want to run sudo modprobe every time i log on. Is there a file that i can edit so its done automatically for me? [03:00] what's OCR? [03:00] losher: I also found out that when you install it, it pulls in german language by default, not english. So that's what I'm trying to do. [03:00] mobi-sheep: ok. So is there a configure script? [03:00] RhinoSerious, Optical Character Recognition [03:00] hello [03:00] RhinoSerious, it tries to convert scanned text into an editable format [03:01] RhinoSerious: you need google practice.... [03:01] RhinoSerious, Optical Character Recognitio http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_character_recognition [03:01] RhinoSerious: http://tinyurl.com/mv2rme :) [03:01] is this D2? [03:01] mobi-sheep, i knew what that was even before clicking the link [03:01] is this Diablo Two? [03:02] I wasn't using a browser [03:02] Is it /etc/modules? [03:02] ty [03:02] timo1: /etc/modprobe.conf [03:02] timo1, you shouldnt need to load a module at each login [03:02] i do [03:02] RhinoSerious, that is for *configuring* modules [03:03] sudo modprobe ndiswrapper [03:03] hey guys [03:03] is that not what he needs to do? [03:03] timo1, how did you install it? [03:03] timo1: what card do you have? [03:03] you might be able to run it natively [03:03] mobi-sheep: ok. So is there a configure script for ogmrip? [03:03] Card is working fine its a Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [03:03] losher: I'm checking the bugs first. Yes there are. [03:04] timo1, how did you install ndiswrapper? and yes, you should use /etc/modules [03:04] ugh!!\' [03:04] cabrey: I used a terminal. And followed the inatll read me [03:04] mobi-sheep: often, the default language etc. is a configure script option. Try './configure --help' [03:04] before i install the ubuntu 9.04 restricted driver - (version 96), just want to make sure that it is the least buggy driver for my geforce4 ti 4200 mobile? [03:04] losher: http://ogmrip.sourceforge.net/en/manual.html#installation [03:05] timo1, that is not specific enough. did you use apt-get/aptitude? [03:05] freonchill: don't install the restricted driver [03:05] cabrey: http://pastebin.com/m64373187 [03:06] Hello all, I'm trying to get my USR5416 working, using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75448&highlight=5410&page=4 but the lastest LiveCD release doesn't give me a acx directory [03:06] Hey all, my wireless is moving quite slow in the newest release. I'm running the AR5007EG chipset, any ideas? [03:06] RhinoSerious: whats the prefered driver then? [03:06] timo1: that's the INSTALL file [03:06] freonchill: what'y your card again? [03:06] timo1, yea... you should've used Applications > Add / Remove... to install ndiswrapper [03:06] i fear my hard drive is dieing.. what can i use to read S.M.A.R.T data? [03:06] I had no internet ? [03:06] RhinoSerious: 4200 mobile (dell d800 laptop) [03:07] freonchill, what driver is listed in System > Adminstration > Hardware Drivers? [03:07] cabrey: 96 [03:07] hello [03:07] gartral smartd [03:07] what's the nam eof your graphics card [03:07] freonchill, that is the legacy driver, it should work... [03:07] ie cd /lib/firmware//acx/default should be /lib/firmware/2.6.28-11-generic/acx/default right? But /acx does not exist [03:07] I've rebooted my laptop and now my sound is gone [03:07] gartral check PM? [03:07] I've a mute laptop after a reboot [03:07] hey. i've got a problem with the built-in camera: cheese works fine with it, but skype doesnt capture anything. after trying skype, though, cheese doesnt work anymore either until i restart. is this a common problem? [03:08] cabrey: is it too late [03:08] RhinoSerious: NV28 [GeForce4 Ti 4200 Go AGP 8x] (rev a1) [03:08] giaco: is PA running? [03:08] are you running 64-bit or 32-bit [03:09] therussianjig, let me check it [03:09] timo1, do you still have the ndiswrapper source directory? [03:09] RhinoSerious: 32bit [03:09] http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html [03:09] freonchill, yea the 96 driver has support for your card [03:09] therussianjig, 3781 ? 00:00:14 pulseaudio yes it's running [03:09] I don't know enough about your card to tell you which one is correct [03:09] Yeh I have the source. Its at my desktop [03:09] RhinoSerious, we don't use that in ubuntu [03:09] giaco: this sounds dumb but did you check the mixer and make sure all the channels are up? [03:09] RhinoSerious, at least we try not to [03:09] what do you mean [03:10] those are open source drivers no? [03:10] cabrey: ndiswrapper-1.55 [03:10] RhinoSerious, there is a proprietary driver manager for a reason [03:10] therussianjig, all the channels are fired up [03:10] RhinoSerious: so its better to use the real nvidia over the restricted? [03:10] Honestly, yes [03:10] freonchill, no [03:10] timo1, cd into it from a terminal and run sudo make uninstall [03:10] giaco: What is your active device [03:10] bazhang: what do you suggest then? [03:10] freonchill, the restricted driver is the nvidia driver [03:11] it's not the same [03:11] freonchill, use the one from the hardware driver [03:11] freonchill, use System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [03:11] therussianjig, what do you mean? [03:11] mobi-sheep: what os version are you compiling for? [03:11] RhinoSerious, yes it is, except packaged and tested by ubuntu devs [03:11] RhinoSerious, please don't advise if you are not sure [03:11] losher: Jaunty. [03:11] derp I am sure [03:11] giaco: In the mixer there is a drop-down for different devices....it might have been switched to an internal speaker [03:11] cabrey: Then install using the add or remove? [03:12] Why not use the drivers directly from the HW manufacturer? [03:12] timo1, yes look for Windows Wireless Drivers [03:12] therussianjig, I've always used alsamixer, actually I don't know where's the gui one, lol [03:12] RhinoSerious, they *are* from the manufactuers, just designed to integrate better [03:12] cabrey: bazhang either of you know if they fixed hte suspend/hibernate problem with 9.04 yet? [03:12] cabrey: that's bull [03:12] mobi-sheep: ogmrip version 0.12.3 ? [03:12] RhinoSerious, please stop [03:12] http://img.4chan.org/b/res/144204351.html [03:12] losher: Yup. [03:12] The nVidia drivers performs better [03:12] RhinoSerious, it is the nvidia driver managed by the ubuntu repos [03:13] GLX gears [03:13] cabrey: done [03:13] RhinoSerious, System > Administration > Hardware Drivers *are* the nvidia / ati drivers [03:13] mobi-sheep: ok, I just downloaded it. I'm on 8.04 though, so my experience may not be the same as yours. The binary version is in english, btw [03:13] not the latest [03:13] RhinoSerious, latest != greatest [03:13] RhinoSerious: it is an nvidia driver it is the latest driver that works in ubuntu at time of release, [03:13] after they've been *tested* newer drivers are released [03:13] cabrey: should i install the driver now ? [03:13] can anybody help me out with a plan to install 386 instead of amd? [03:14] RhinoSerious: it's not bull to use the nvidia drivers that ubuntu provides, since the ones from the nvidia.com site are more likely to break or be broken due to system mis-management [03:14] RhinoSerious: Latest stable drivers. x' [03:14] timo1, yes install ndiswrapper via add / remove [03:14] cabrey: bazhang i had tried 9.04 when it first came out; and i had installed 96, then the next reboot, it had suggested 196 over the 96... onl reason i asked [03:14] only* [03:14] Old drivers doesn't help at all [03:14] i run arch [03:14] losher: http://www.my-guides.net/en/content/view/129/26/ [03:14] I know how to configure my xorg [03:14] losher: You can see how it does not use tess* [03:14] freonchill: Suspend / Hibernate is more of a system specific issue if it isn't working. [03:14] and I know that nVidia drivers work well [03:14] I'd most prefer to keep 64bit as a second install and start from scratch with a 386 install... on a separate partition [03:14] freonchill: What do you mean "you installed 96" ?? [03:14] RhinoSerious, if you are running arch, then you do not know about the special utilities ubuntu provides for this purpose [03:14] RhinoSerious: k, that's all fine and good, but we support Ubuntu here [03:14] I've used arch [03:14] RhinoSerious: Lol... arch is simple. And Im pretty sure you just use X -configure or nvidia-xconfig =P + Hal. [03:14] cabrey: done [03:15] So, still trying to get this wireless card working, help? [03:15] coleys: vesa doesn't work right [03:15] timo1, go to System > Administration > Windows Wireless Drivers and install the inf driver [03:15] and arch doesn't come with anything proprietary [03:15] RhinoSerious, please stop [03:15] RhinoSerious: Wrong. =o You can easily install anything really. [03:15] RhinoSerious: please take arch discussion elsewhere. [03:15] cabrey: it says the driver is already installed [03:15] timo1, is it listed in the GUI? [03:16] Canageek: which wireless card? [03:16] USR5416 [03:16] cabrey: :)yes [03:16] losher: Just wait. [03:16] therussianjig, I've found a "chip name" [03:16] timo1, ok try a reboot [03:16] Ubuntu is the best. WOOT! *Streaks Naked through the channel* [03:16] not a device name [03:16] Exact same problem as listed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75448&highlight=5410&page=4 [03:16] giaco: I had a simiair problem awhile ago and 'sudo killall pulseaudio' worked but I can't say why, or if it will work in your case [03:16] mobi-sheep: wait for what? [03:16] cabrey: ok thanks [03:17] I'm running the lastest live CD as I want to get this working before I go through the whole rigamaroll of installing [03:17] losher: I'm testing it. Somebody comment that the ogmrip failz at giving notification progress. [03:17] cabrey: bazhang gotta check-out suspend/hibernate before i install the driver... it was broken when they first releasted 9.06.... [03:17] losher: Testing a single chapter at the moment. [03:17] Canageek: do you see it listed here? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs#Cards Supported [03:17] mobi-sheep: ok [03:17] Canageek: usually you have to wait to get it installed before getting wireless to work [03:17] Canageek: Whats your wifi card? [03:17] freonchill: This is no such thing as 9.06. [03:17] USR5416 [03:18] Ok, I'll try that then [03:18] but I had it working with an old version of Kubuntu [03:18] Canageek: Uhh.. .. Usr is ... what? Broadcom, intel... ? [03:18] therussianjig, solved [03:18] US Robotics [03:18] ^ [03:18] It was pulseaudio [03:18] but it seems to have a texas instament chipset [03:18] !who | giaco [03:18] giaco: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [03:19] giaco: for a permanate fix, add a boot up line that disables pulse audio [03:19] Canageek: that post is about 3 years old, surely there must be another.. [03:19] what is the best radeon driver for linux? [03:19] mr_mustard, what is your hardware? [03:19] Gnea: *shrug* I found it from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsUsRobotics [03:20] radeon hd3200 [03:20] scrolling in firefox is a bit sluggish [03:20] Gnea: And it describes the problem I have in Kubuntu perfectly, seems a touch diffrent in Ubuntu but probably the same root problem [03:20] Canageek: nice [03:20] ops.. I'm using the proprietary driver [03:21] mr_mustard, the ati driver System > Administration > Hardware Drivers [03:21] screenlets are written in python, sweet! [03:21] mr_mustard: I also have an ATI card (radeon 9550) There are only two drivers that I can use. The open source "ati" driver and the proprietary (from ATI) fglrx driver. [03:21] hey umm i have a qustion, when i go away for like 10 min my piden sets my pm as im not here right now [03:21] how can i disable that [03:21] mr_mustard: Neither of which improve the firefox scrolling problem. I think it's actually the firefox code that is the problem but I can't say for sure. [03:22] losher: Halfwaay there now. Testing it with subtitle too. I'll keep you posted. [03:22] edbian, do you have that firefox scrolling problem? [03:22] mr_mustard: I think everybody does. [03:22] mr_mustard, try a different browser like epiphany or midori or even google chrome preview [03:22] phil__: Tools > Preferences > Status Idle [03:22] edbian, +1 [03:22] mr_mustard: yes [03:22] nouvea drivers are open source [03:22] therefore, better [03:23] thanks :) [03:23] RhinoSerious, what are you talking about now? [03:23] mr_mustard: Try one that doesn't use the gecko rendering engine. In my experience that seems to be part of the problem. [03:23] mobi-sheep: I confess I found gocr so awful in the past that I use a windows app for ripping subtitles.... (ducks & covers) [03:23] cabrey: open source nvidia drivers [03:23] Canageek: now I'm lost... perhaps someone else can help :/ [03:23] RhinoSerious, that is not correct. [03:23] Gnea: Thanks for your help anyway [03:23] RhinoSerious: for 3D? dream on.. [03:24] RhinoSerious, go to #ubuntu-offtopic [03:24] bazhang: better in a sense of free [03:24] free as in freedom [03:24] !ot > RhinoSerious [03:24] RhinoSerious, please see my private message [03:25] Um, ok thats bad. The liveCD just froze, and I just ran Check CD on it [03:25] Anybody know why my PC goes through a shutdown when I ctrl-C in a terminal window? [03:25] I'm pretty sure my hardware is good... [03:25] I don't get private messages [03:25] ascheel: ?? [03:25] ascheel: Are you logged in? [03:25] RhinoSerious: you're being warned to stay on-topic or risk being banned.... [03:26] edbian: yeah. I'm logged in, but if I go to cancel an rsync or ANY other command with Ctrl-C, my PC starts the shutdown procedure. [03:26] cabrey: It works i have rebooted twice wifi just connects on its own ;-) === ce is now known as cewek [03:26] Canageek: froze when, exactly? [03:26] timo1, using the repos are always a better way to go :) [03:27] i wonder why my verison dsl works on linux but not windows [03:27] ascheel: That is very strange. There are no errors? [03:27] When I hit numlock, I was goint to try sudo modprobe rt2500pci and when I hit numblock too type 2500 it seemed to crash [03:27] as in everything locked up [03:27] Plus im running 64 bit not many have had success with wifi and 64 bit [03:27] Soulwarp: Cause linux rocks ;) ?? [03:27] second time its happend tonight [03:27] edbian, no errors. It's just as though I did: shutdown now [03:27] I've not touched this computer since oh, last summer [03:27] when I tired to get linux working on it [03:28] GNU/Linux [03:28] ascheel: You cannot cancel any command? (Just so you know I don't really know how to fix this problem I am just really curious about it). Is this in TTY1 or just a terminal or both? [03:28] Canageek: which os live-cd are you running? [03:28] I think the lastest Ubuntu relase [03:29] let me check [03:29] edbian: just a terminal. It DOES cancel the program, but at the same time it's like Gnome sees it and issues a shutdown becaus of it [03:29] b [03:29] losher: ubuntu-9.04-desktop-i386.iso [03:29] Canageek: hangs are usually hardware related. Maybe you should run a memtest overnight? [03:29] ascheel: bash, dash, sh ?? [03:30] bash [03:30] edbian: bash [03:30] I guess, but I used this computer constanly till I got my laptop without trouble so unless its broken down while sitting unplugged [03:30] Canageek: 9.04 is fussier than other releases. Another options is try again with 8.04.2 [03:30] Ok [03:30] I'll try that if installing it doesn't work [03:30] ascheel: Switch to TTY1 and log in and run a simple command (something like ping that will run for a little while) and try to cancel it and see what happens. [03:30] Canageek: good luck [03:31] losher: 8.04.2?? What's the .2 ? Are you referring to updates or something? [03:31] Swap partition should be at the start of the physical drive? [03:32] Canageek: Doesn't have to be. Ubuntu will find it as long as it has the /swap mount option when you format regardless of where it is [03:32] edbian: if you download the latest version of 8.04. I think you'll find it's at revision 2 i.e. bugfixes etc. [03:32] Canageek, doesn't matter, if you don't plan on changing partitions sizes later. [03:32] losher: IC [03:32] Ok, thanks [03:32] edbian, second release [03:32] edbian, err third [03:33] YOU PEOPLE AND YOUR STUPID WEIRD OS [03:33] HAHAHAH [03:33] losher: Video looks great! Subtitle == Failz. [03:33] cabrey: As in, it includes a number of critical updates. Similar to what losher said? [03:33] How do you tell the operators to ban somebody? [03:33] mobi-sheep: failed in what way? Never extracted, couldn't ocr them, something else? [03:34] edbian, yea so you don't download 2 GB of updates after you install hardy [03:34] edbian, use !ops [03:34] edbian, what is the problem [03:34] cabrey: Double thank you :) [03:34] I want to install Ubuntu 8.04 but I don't have a CD or a flash drive. I've got a free partition to use. Can I somehow start the Ubuntu LiveCD in a virtual machine and allow it to format my free partition? [03:34] losher: It did what it should did but I can't find the subtitle anywhere or and it's not embedded either. [03:34] bazhang: MichaelXX2 came in here just to yell. I asked for future reference (for future jerks) [03:35] edbian, it is a registered account on freenode, maybe take it to #freenode? [03:35] ryanprior: nope, you can use some of the methods in !install however, or wubi [03:35] mobi-sheep: so it didn't produce an .srt file? Did it prompt you for any characters. Usually the OCR prompts a number of times when it has trouble recognising a character [03:35] ryanprior: Check out "unetbootin" It allows you to install an operating system with no external media (besides internet to get unetbootin in the first place) [03:35] losher: Nothing. [03:35] cabrey: He left so I don't really care that much [03:35] losher: You see the link? tess* is best open-source ocr. [03:36] edbian: umm unetbootin doesn't do what he wants [03:36] mobi-sheep: I'll give tesseract a try. BTW: I've had reasonable success encoding dvds with dvd::rip [03:37] losher: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ogmrip/+bug/247826 [03:37] ziroday: Boot a live CD from an ISO (without burning a CD) . That's what unetbootin does. ryanprior is that what you want? [03:37] losher: I like it -- Very simple. Got profile for high quality too. Etc. :) [03:37] Hey all, so I have an AR5007EG wireless chip, and the transfer rates are slow. [03:37] edbian: I'd like to use unetbootin, but for some reason I can't access Sourceforge. >.> [03:37] edbian: he doesn't want to use a flash drive either. Plus its frugal install does what wubi does, just badly [03:37] ryanprior: wubi sounds like what you want [03:38] losher: You even can throw in plugins for iPod support, iZune support, PSP support, PS3 support, Xbox360 Streaming support, etc. You get the idea. Optimization for those files. :3 [03:38] ziroday: ??? What are you talking about? unetbootin works without a flash drive. unetbootin does NOT do what wubi does. [03:38] ziroday: I'm currently running Ubuntu, so Wubi is out; and I really want to use my free partition. [03:38] ryanprior, it's in the repos [03:38] I'm working on setting up the network manager, I reinstalled it but it doesn't come up in the systray when I start up. [03:38] mobi-sheep: I'll try it next time I need an encode.... [03:39] cabrey: ah, thank goodness for the repos [03:39] ryanprior: You're running ubuntu? I'm getting confused. Why do you want to install ubuntu? It's already running [03:39] ryanprior: ah I didn't realise you were running ubuntu, then there is another method [03:39] ziroday: what's the other method? [03:39] losher: Look at that bug link I gave you -- There are " + Drop configure flag --with-ocr=ocrad" [03:39] ryanprior: no promises but http://www.instantfundas.com/2007/08/install-any-linux-distro-directly-from.html and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28948 [03:39] losher: Yes. Configuration flag! Which I was trying to learn how to use. >_> [03:39] edbian: I'm running 9.04 and I want to install 8.04 alongside. === keo_ is now known as Keo [03:39] whats th wireless/network applet that appears in the systray of gnome. [03:40] odinsbane: nm-applet [03:40] edbian: I've got a tall stack of 9.04 CDs from ShipIt but left my 8.04 CDs hundreds of miles away. =D [03:40] ryanprior: OIC. Yeah I would suggest unetbootin. Upt o you though [03:40] ryanprior: kicking yourself huh lol === shino_ is now known as Guest52778 [03:41] hello? [03:41] hi [03:41] ryanprior, O.o just how many shipits? [03:41] hi [03:41] Guest52778: Please ask a question and don't ask permission to ask a question [03:41] so im kinda new here [03:41] ziroday: thanks Ill see if I can get it to show up. [03:42] s0o0o0o0o0o? [03:42] cabrey: About 15, I originally had 20 but I've given some away. [03:42] ryanprior, oh :) [03:42] Guest52778: What's your question? [03:42] cabrey: I find it's always useful to have Ubuntu CDs to use when people's computers bust, and then I just give them the CD to keep afterwards. [03:42] ryanprior: Good lord man?! What were you gonna do with that many? [03:42] mobi-sheep: I don't understand the bug report. It implies that regardless of configuration, ogm will choose tesseract, gocr or ocrad, in that order, at runtime === richard is now known as Guest90291 [03:43] ryanprior: Frolf? [03:43] how much wood would a wood chuck chung if a wood chuck could chug wood? [03:43] ryanprior, i'm surprised the service allowed you to get that many lol === Cpudan80_ is now known as cpudan80 [03:43] !ot > Guest52778 [03:43] Guest52778, please see my private message [03:43] edbian: I give them away to people when they ask about what funny-looking OS I'm running, or when their Windows/Mac boxen crash and they need to restore. === cpudan80 is now known as Cpudan80 [03:43] Guest52778, wrong channel [03:43] ryanprior: OIC. :) [03:43] cabrey: I've been getting ShipIt CDs since Dapper, and I bump it up by a couple every year. I always manage to give them all away, so I'll continue the practice. :-) [03:44] Right on, anyone know why my wireless (AR5007EG) crawls in ubuntu? [03:44] ryanprior: A real humanitarian. [03:44] ryanprior, i got one because i wanted an official cd, now i feel guilty [03:44] * cabrey hides === shino_ is now known as Guest84552 [03:44] I just burn em with my own blanks. [03:44] is there other irc places or its strictly this [03:44] cabrey: no problem, you can do the same as I do -- bump it up by a couple every release. Next time ask for 3. [03:44] cabrey: Shame on you... your evil. hehe [03:45] Guest84552: There are lots of channels. This is ubuntu support. [03:45] Guest84552, /msg alis list help [03:45] I wish I had some label printing kit to make em officiallistic. [03:45] tntc: I do that too for alphas and so on, but I find that when I'm presenting Ubuntu to friends and colleagues, it's better received when it has the slick professional packaging. [03:45] how would you go bout switching channels ? [03:45] Guest84552: www.irchelp.org [03:45] Guest84552, /join #channel [03:45] ryanprior: Doesn't it cost them money to print those? Are they losing money on every one they ship? [03:45] Guest84552, /join #defocus (for example) [03:45] Ill tell you whats cool is burning the Ubuntu ISOs on LightScribe disks and making nice labels with gimp and they have lightscribe for linux and everything. Looks like a bought CD if you buy the cool colored disks. [03:45] tntc: it's the difference between "let's try this slick product on your computer" and "here, put this sharpie'd CD I burned into your computer and reboot. I promise, it'll be cool!" [03:45] edbian, probably a few quarters / cd [03:45] ryanprior: Meh, my friends and colleagues aren't picky. I find it's better presenting it with a willingness to help and support them :) [03:46] ryanprior: I usually show em my three laptops running it first. [03:46] edbian, scratch that, pennies most likely [03:46] edbian: Yes, they lose money with ShipIt. It's part of their advertising budget. [03:46] ryanprior: the big seller: "Watch your pr0nz without worrying about viruses so much" [03:46] IC [03:46] tntc: 3 laptops?! Maybe you'd like to buy me one. =) [03:46] ryanprior: two are netbooks :) [03:46] ryanprior: I had more. I gave em away. [03:46] ok getting a bit offtopic [03:47] raid #ubuntu-offtopic for this stuff [03:47] * Keo takes a nice, deep breath and decides one more to ask for help. [03:47] Keo: What's your question? [03:47] Keo: good attitude. ;-) [03:47] cabrey: we're discussing computers that run ubuntu. I think that's fair game. It's not like we're talking about cars or something. [03:47] or just leave... [03:47] or not [03:47] Stupid hotkeys [03:48] tntc, it's a support channel, offtopic is for general ubuntu chat :) [03:48] Anyway, my wireless is crawling in Ubuntu (AR5007EG). Does anyone know why, or is it simply because the free driver doesn't like it? [03:48] oh yes, sound via alsa works once more [03:48] Ok, I'm sure this is the wrong place, but maybe someone here can point me to a better place to ask...I downloaded a copy of Mac OS9 for my old iMac, but I can't get it to burn correctly...and ideas? [03:48] Keo, is there a madwifi driver available? [03:48] Keo, use the ath5k drivers for that chipset. It works awesomely [03:48] They don't. [03:49] Keo: Yeah, It's probably because the driver is lousy. That's a pretty speculative guess though. [03:49] And there is no madwifi installed [03:49] Keo: I have the exact same chipset, Keo. Use ath5k [03:49] RedLance, erm OS9 isn't free, you must've torrented it [03:49] ascheel: you must have ath confused with something else. ath5k is the farthest thing from "awesome" [03:50] is there anyway to program in visual basic in ubuntu ? [03:50] Keo: have you read this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1134165 [03:50] ascheel, it's not working right in some way, shape or form. I should be pulling 300 some Kb/s from downloads, whereas I'm getting .5 [03:50] raylu: on the contrary. Installed ath5k, rebooted, wireless works perfectly [03:50] ascheel: then you're part of the lucky few [03:50] SnakDoc, no, that is a proprietary language, tho wine might help... [03:51] ok jw in the class say i just use virtual machine [03:51] SnakDoc: Why do you want to use visual basic anyway? [03:51] in the class lol could careless about it later [03:51] SnakDoc: OIC [03:51] SnakDoc, locking yourself into that language isn't exactly a good thing : [03:51] :D yea [03:51] SnakDoc: yes, you can program VisualBasic on Ubuntu using Mono I think. [03:52] ryanprior, mono is C# [03:52] SnakDoc, no season 5 :-( [03:52] cabrey: IIRC they also have VB.Net support [03:52] ryanprior, and the linux clone of .NET [03:52] o well [03:52] cabrey: wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC says it's a general discussion, help channel. [03:52] cabrey: perhaps the wiki needs to be updated. [03:53] VB != VB.NET :) [03:53] cabrey, SnakDoc: http://mono-project.com/Visual_Basic [03:53] cabrey: tntc has got you there [03:53] ty Gnea, was what I was looking for. [03:53] Ok cabrey, allow me to rephrase that...I've got a .toast file that I want to burn using Ubuntu, can anyone help? [03:53] ok thanks [03:53] edbian: not the first time I've made the argument, and I'm sure it will not be the last time I have to. [03:53] tntc, ask the ops is all i have to say, they have reign over everything there [03:54] RedLance: There are many options for programs to use to burn iso's. K3b and gnome-baker are both good options. Do you know how to get software from the repos? [03:54] RedLance: first hit on google: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=827280 [03:54] cabrey: I'd note that they said nothing. Perhaps it should be left to the ops to indicate when a discussion should be moved to offtopic. [03:54] ryanprior, hmm intriguing, i thought it was specifically for .NET... thanks for that :D [03:55] Well honestly I think that VB is definitely off topic. [03:55] iamtechno: not if somebody is asking about VB development in Ubuntu [03:55] edbian: Yes, I do, I already have Thanks! [03:55] Errr... [03:55] RedLance: np [03:55] edbian: I have Brasero [03:55] hi [03:55] RedLance: That's good too [03:56] sam_ Hey [03:56] tntc: it's really whatever the ops decide it is. Over time that changes, and it also depends who's on duty at any particular time. I've seen them be pretty hard nosed about banning people/topics even when I personally thought it was sufficiently on-topic... [03:56] ryanprior, true but when I got in here I all kept reading was weather VB and Vb.net are equal. [03:56] losher: yes, it is really whatever the ops decide. So far, they have said nothing. [03:56] iamtechno: when you can't read the whole conversation it's hard to make a judgment. =D [03:57] edbian: I wish I had known it was that easy...thanks! [03:57] RedLance: np [03:57] and thanks losher too [03:57] ryanprior, true. I was just giving my two cents like everone else. [03:57] tntc: yeah, looks like the ops are taking a break tonight. Personally I prefer it that way :-) [03:58] so grasshopper is it off topic to discuss what is off topic [03:58] !ot4ot | ctmjr [03:58] ctmjr: Some topics are controversial and often end in negativity. Take care on subjects like war, race, religion, politics, gender, sexuality, drugs, potentially illegal activities and suicide.

Disputes to !appeals, please adhere to !Freenode Policy and the !CodeOfConduct [03:58] no, but discussing whether it is off-topic to discuss what is off-topic is off-topic [03:58] this is a support channel. [03:58] tntc, i am in #ubuntu-ops now [03:58] nalioth: then why does the wiki say it is a discussion channel? [03:59] !Freenode Policy [03:59] freenode is Freenode is the IRC network that you're on! See http://freenode.net/faq.shtml. Freenode has policies that govern how people should use the network which can be read at http://freenode.net/policy.shtml.

[03:59] Is there a hardcore mode for ubuntu? [04:00] define 'hardcore'? [04:00] RhinoSerious, uhh what? [04:00] ctmjr: some things, including those listed by the bot, are considred offtopic even for an offtopic channel. This is because the discussion can be harmful to the community, rather than resulting in productive communication. :-) [04:00] RhinoSerious: Debian ?

I have my Ubuntu laptop connected to WiFi for internet, and I have the ethernet port connected to a switch connected to another computer. I can access SSH over the WiFi adapter, but not the Ethernet adapter. I allow 0.0.0.0 in my ssh config file. Any suggestions? [04:00] Lauren Phoenix typing on the console... that's hardcore [04:00] RhinoSerious: Yes, it's called Ubuntu Server. http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/serveredition [04:00] !karmic > RhinoSerious [04:00] RhinoSerious, please see my private message [04:00] RhinoSerious, try running on the CLI, its hardcore enough. [04:00] hello everbody, well i got some problems configurating a ftp, may somebody help me :S? [04:01] RhinoSerious, on the contrary. It's you who are trolling. :\ [04:01] earthmeLon: Is this a managed switch? [04:01] RhinoSerious: is that the name of a different distribution? please, don't call others out for trolling when, clearly, they are not. [04:01] adux, are you trying to config a client or a server? [04:01] I am getting "Connection Refused". I am not sure what you mean edbian. It has firmware [04:01] adux: please just ask your question :) [04:01] cabrey: on /g/, whenever someone asks about tech support, they are always told to install Gentoo [04:01] No matter what the problem is [04:02] RhinoSerious, oh great, a 4chaner :/\ [04:02] iamtechno, a server ;) [04:02] RhinoSerious: cabrey #ubuntu-offtopic is where your discussion should take place :) [04:02] what is the wii remote program? [04:02] nalioth: I was asking for support [04:02] RhinoSerious: what is /g/ ? [04:02] earthmeLon: There are two types of switched. Managed and unmanaged. An unmanaged switch needs a router attached to it. A managed switch is a router. Describe your switch. Large, rack-mountable? Small (made by linksys) etc etc/ [04:02] the problem is i've tried to follow some guides but most are from like 2 yeas ago :S [04:02] nalioth, sorry to be a hypocrite :P got sucked in [04:02] What plugins do I need to get to play video on websites like espn? [04:02] Zopiac: wii-motes are bluetooth devices [04:03] lwells, Flash [04:03] Hello People, TriMe is having some problems with Linux ubuntu 9.04 - I have 2x 8800 GTS 320Mg Grahpics Cards, Running SLi... and i have installed Ubuntu as my main operating system... I install the Recommended Drivers from Nvidia and Ubuntu, but apon reboot is Come up with Checking battery State, and does SFA.... what do i do now? just leave it and wait or make more posts on ubuntu forums??? [04:03] huh, I have flash [04:03] losher: zip.4chan.org/g/imgboard.html [04:03] adux, what program are you using for the server? [04:03] RhinoSerious, /join #ubuntu-offtopic [04:03] losher, NSFW [04:03] nalioth, i just got some problems with the proftpd.conf [04:03] It's a Linksys 10/100 router with DD-WRT running just as a DHCP server. It's on 10.1.2.1 vs wifi 10.1.1.1. Are you suggesting I try port forwording? [04:03] iamtechno, proftpd [04:04] edbian: ^ [04:04] I have Shockwave flash, is that the correct flash to have? [04:04] adux: have you tried asking in a proftp channel? [04:04] iamtechno, the 0.3.5 version [04:04] earthmeLon: That is a small home use router (managed switch). Now explain to me again what you did / what you're trying to accomplish. [04:04] legend2440? [04:04] nalioth, nop, didnt't know that existed :O [04:04] adux, I agree. Try the proftpd channel [04:04] what's the terminal command to get the current system time? [04:04] Flynsarmy: date [04:04] adux: /msg alis help /msg alis list *ftp* [04:04] Flynsarmy: date [04:05] Flynsarmy, man date for help [04:05] lwells: You have to remove all of the flash packages except for the one you want to use. Otherwise they block each other out as firefox plugins and it is very confusing. IDK if this helps but I think it is useful to know when installing flash. [04:05] raylu, Gnea thanks [04:05] THANKS ;) [04:05] adux, your welcome [04:05] My pc is connected to Main router and this switch through ethernet. My laptop is connected wirelessly to Main router and to the switch over ethernet. I want my laptop to continue getting internet access through the wireless adapter while SSH/SFTP over ethernet. [04:06] edbian: ^ [04:06] RhinoSerious: looks like a weird mixture of softcore porn & technology. Inevitable I suppose. Not particularly readable, btw [04:06] losher: #ubuntu-offtopic please [04:06] I have try port forwording, but I thought forwording was only needed for stuff on the WAN port edbian [04:06] The ubuntu-restricted-extras package pulls in Sun's JRE but OpenJDK's plugin. Why doesn't it use the Sun plugin (which does exist)? [04:07] I can try* [04:07] nalioth: no need, I'm done with it... [04:07] Dear God, why does my system go unstable with 8GB of RAM? [04:07] earthmeLon: So let me get this straight. Both computers have a wifi connection (that you want to use for internet) and a wired connection through a second switch (second from the wifi router) that you want to use for SSH. is this correcT? [04:07] Basically [04:07] Naynay, it could be that your kernel isn't setup to run more than 4gb of ram. [04:07] cryptide: I knew I recognized you from some place [04:07] earthmeLon: That is correct you only need to port forward when you are going from a WAN or the internet inside a LAN. (Getting though NAT). [04:08] nah, it's going beserk in Memtest [04:08] earthmeLon: What SSH server are you using? [04:08] loadsa errors [04:08] bc: yeah total n00b here ;) [04:08] Naynay, sounds like a hardware issue [04:08] Naynay, bad ram stick then? [04:08] I'm going to have to see if there's anything wrong with any inidividual stick [04:08] openssh. I have 0.0.0.0 accessable and on the MAIN ROUTER I can receive outside connections edbian [04:08] it's brand new memory though [04:09] cryptide: I dunno, back there in #css makes up for it in my book lol [04:09] Naynay: that means nothing, unfortunately (except that i might still be under warranty) [04:09] Mobo supports up to 8GB, so it says [04:09] Naynay: god stepped out. We're filling in for him. "Going berserk in memtest" usually means bad memory hardware. Brand new is no particular guarantee. [04:09] earthmeLon: Both of these computers are going to connect through the secondary switch so why does the MAIN router need to allow outside connections? [04:09] I thought as much... [04:09] I think my HD failed, i booted into ubuntu live, the hd wont mount eitther gives error, when trying to get into windows i get a read error... is there ome tool/cmd i acn use to see hd status/condition/ if it crashedd? [04:09] earthmeLon: What is the IP of the desktop and laptop's WIRED connection? [04:10] Naynay, what I would do is take out all but one stick. Turn your system on and see if it works. If it does shut down and swap it for another stick. repeat until all sticks have been tested. [04:10] Pusha, run an fsck check [04:10] Main router already supported outside connections so my friend can login. Wired IPS: 10.1.2.50 10.1.2.51 edbian [04:10] that's what I'm doing now [04:10] Pusha: What brand is the HD? [04:10] not sure [04:10] I have 4 2GB sticks of RAM [04:10] Hello People, TriMe is having some problems with Linux ubuntu 9.04 - I have 2x 8800 GTS 320Mg Grahpics Cards, Running SLi... and i have installed Ubuntu as my main operating system... I install the Recommended Drivers from Nvidia and Ubuntu, but apon reboot is Come up with Checking battery State, and does SFA.... what do i do now? just leave it and wait or make more posts on ubuntu forums??? [04:10] Naynay, then test all of them one by one. [04:11] earthmeLon: Is the desktop logging into the laptop? Is your friend logging into the desktop? What is a server and what is a client here? [04:11] I guess I have no choice. [04:11] Pusha, fsck will run a file system check and mark bad sectors [04:11] Pusha: most disk manufacturers provide their own downloadable diagnostics disk. Those give the best diagnostics of all. What model is your PC? [04:11] All I need to know is if there is any reason Ubuntu can't handle two simutanious(sp) adapters, or if there is something I need to do to allow it === Inc`_ is now known as Inc` [04:12] TriMe: SFA? [04:12] TriMe, I don't quite understand the issue. Its hanging on the battery check, correct? === TheQ_ is now known as TheQ [04:12] Can someone help me follow the advice at http://acx100.sourceforge.net/wiki/Firmware [04:12] earthmeLon: ubuntu 9.04 can handle 2 (or more) network connections at once. I am concerned though why you needed to alter a config file for SSH. AFAIK you simply install openssh-server on the server and you can log into it without any configuring. [04:12] Laptop is Ubuntu server. Desktop is windows box. I want a dedicated line from my pc to the laptop ethernet(10/100) for faster transfers and less latency [04:13] I installed Ubuntu on the 2nd hd on my desktop. It will not boot. I get an "unable to execute '/sbin/getty' fot ttyx no such file or directory" message [04:13] I added another port in the ssh config since ISP blocks port 22 edbian [04:13] I also had the misfortune of getting a 2TB Western Digital Hard drive, only to find that it kicks itself off the system at random [04:13] bad firmwire I think [04:13] earthmeLon, you need a crossover cable [04:13] cabrey: He has a switch [04:13] tty main processes 1-6 all terminated with status 255 [04:13] I have a switch, cabrey [04:13] Canageek, this is for your wireless card? [04:13] Naynay, RMA them. Where did you get youre parts from? [04:13] DarkMage26: Yes [04:14] earthmeLon, oh ok. then you want an ad-hoc network? [04:14] Canageek, why do you need to update it's firmware? [04:14] TriMe check PM? [04:14] earthmeLon: You have a modem connected to your main router correct? The IP address of your modem (your public IP) is the one that has port 22 blocked. The ip of the machines inside your network probably don't have any ports blocked unless you're running a firewall somewhere that you didn't mention [04:14] DarkMage26: Becuse there is a bug thats been around for a while with my card (since 2006) and all the advice I can find says that doing this will work [04:15] DarkMage26: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75448&highlight=5410&page=3 [04:15] mobi-sheep: SFA - sweet F*ck All... [04:15] I realize that edbian. I was just giving you a clearer picture of my entire network because I am not sure what is causing the problems [04:15] Night all, and thanks again. [04:15] iamtechno: Yeah its just hanging on battery Check Dude... === Khronos is now known as DoYouKnow [04:15] earthmeLon: Ok. Can you ping your machine (the ubuntu server) from your friends client computer? [04:15] DarkMage26: Is the best source, people have opened a number of bugs on it with 10+ people reporting that this fixes it, but then the bug gets closed by a new version so *shrug* [04:15] I was trying to let you know that I can connect to the server over wifi EVEN over internet. Just not over the switch [04:16] knothing like bulding your own ubuntu [04:16] DarkMage26: I can link you to the tickets [04:16] TriMe, Will it boot if you take the battery out and just run it from the AC adapter? === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [04:16] Canageek, one sec let me read what it wants you to do.

[04:17] earthmeLon: Is that the command your friend is running? (Across the internet) ? [04:17] CMOS ^ [04:17] earthmeLon: sounds like iptables or sshd_config is causing this [04:17] No [04:17] Which seems to live at /lib/firmware/acx [04:17] earthmeLon: That is from what computer then? [04:18] TriMe: http://www.darraghverschoyle.com/2009/03/enabling-sli-on-ubuntu-810/ ? [04:18] raylu: sshd_config allows 0.0.0.0. IP tables is blank [04:18] TriMe: isn't there some way to disable apci on boot? Might be worth trying for you... [04:18] edbian: Yes, since that's what my question is: Why can't MY desktop get to MY laptop over a secondary connection (switch) [04:19] \join #twisted [04:19] earthmeLon: You're using putty on the windows machine? [04:19] Indeed edbian. x@10.1.1.51 (wifi ip) works. x@10.1.2.51 "Connection Refused" [04:20] TriMe, no. I suspect that the SLI is sucking all of your main battery's life and/or it is not charging properly. [04:20] earthmeLon: invoke-rc.d sshd stop; /usr/sbin/sshd -d [04:21] earthmeLon: or have you already done this? [04:21] Hi, I'm with a problema on my notebook wifi card. I bouth a compaq presario yesterday and I configured wifi connection this morning. After upgrade Ubuntu, the system cannot find th wifi signal anymore. I'm very worried if my wifi broke... ifconfig cannot detec wlan anymore. I tried livecd and it didnt detected wifi also. How can I know if I have to back to the store (until tomorrou) and change the laptop? (on #ubuntu-br a wifi card [04:21] from a guy just stoped working on a HP pavillion this week after upgradeing ubuntu) [04:21] raylu: both of my SSH ports give me this error: Bind to port 22 on 0.0.0.0 failed: Address already in use. [04:22] iamtechno: OK cheers man i havw 2 other guys helping me out atm we'll see what they say too cheers budyd for help [04:22] everton137: lspci, ifconfig -a [04:22] losher: I'm going to do a full rip. It seems that when I chose the smallest file (3min). There are no subtitle for that said file. Only a single chapter have the whole subtitle. Something like that. Looks like it's part of encrypted dvd progress. >_> [04:22] Do I need a different port per IP addy? That's what it looks like raylu [04:22] earthmeLon: you didn't stop the server, then [04:22] oh [04:22] one sec raylu [04:22] TriMe, okay. Your welcome. That's what we're here for. [04:22] earthmeLon: you don't need a different port for each machine/ip [04:22] earthmeLon: You shouldn't need a different port of each IP. [04:22] i have an sd card for my cell phone, what format should i use? [04:22] raylu: Worked that time and now it's hung [04:22] i mean using gparted [04:22] hello all [04:23] earthmeLon: -d makes it not background, that's normal [04:23] earthmeLon: now try ssh-ing in [04:23] what format to i make an sd card for a cell phone using gparted? [04:23] mobi-sheep: makes sense. btw, I think mplayer will tell you if a file has subs in it.... [04:23] earthmeLon: I think that is is very likely that you can only have 1 SSH connection at a time. [04:23] Right, I just tried to connect raylu and the terminal made no changes [04:23] earthmeLon: can you also try on a working connection? [04:23] Hellose! [04:23] I use like 4 oses [04:23] i installed a .run file, and now i want to uninstall it. synaptic doesnt see it to uninstall it for obious reasons. my interenet is just too seratic to run the program. anyone know how to uninstall this?

VirtualBox is awesome. Its simple yet elegant. [04:26] raylu: earthmeLon You're above my head now. Sorry I couldn't help more! Good luck! [04:26] I'm banned?

[04:30] shows people that linux IS a viable alternative [04:30] sebsebseb said its bad [04:30] Caleb_: runs inside Windows, if the drive isn't fragmented, can get all slow, if Windows get virus that deleted it, bye bye Wubi/Ubuntu as well, and so on [04:30] ulb: ? [04:30] ulb: hardly, since your alternative is sitting in a windows partition [04:30] Caleb_: real partitions is the best :) [04:30] Yes. I am sitting next to the laptop/server. I killed all of my remote connections, killed SSHD, started SSHD with -d flag. < raylu [04:30] everybody needs to start somewhere... [04:31] ulb: partating a drive is pretty safe [04:31] goodevening. new ubuntu user here, but long time tech. i've got PPTP connections running via connection manager in ubuntu, but i can't actually ping or utilize any remote resources. any advice? [04:31] ulb: no reason why you can't start with a partition [04:31] they authenticate and logs show all is good [04:31] With fragment, it slow. Not other way around [04:31] ulb: and no woorys of a windows trojen messing it up [04:31] earthmeLon: the reason i wanted to run netstat was because you said that killing the sshd didn't kill your connection [04:31] Caleb_: yes I meant the other way round [04:31] don't hate on wubi [04:31] baby steps [04:31] Btw I used pcs for like ages and i only got ONE virus [04:31] you need to walk before you run [04:31] ulb: it causes lots of problems while trying to present itself as an "easier" way [04:31] ulb: the ubuntu installer can even auto partation [04:31] Right, so I logged into the computer and ran netstat to MAKE SURE it was killed. It *WAS* killed [04:32] ulb: when, really, it represents all the flaws of windows design [04:32] hey, you are preaching to the choir [04:32] say, anyone know how to uninstall a program installed with a .run package? [04:32] earthmeLon: and your ssh sessions died? or did you have none at that point? [04:32] Hylian: it depends on what it was [04:32] ulb: wubi is like running inside a zip file it hurts preforance [04:32] but if something can bring more usuers, please, by all means...give it a chance [04:33] ulb: its just for those who fear partating [04:33] It seems that if you "STOP" sshd remotely, it doesn't actually stop. It was still running. So, I got on the laptop, killed ssh, and then started it up again [04:33] wolfenstein enemy territory, i have broadband again but my ping is in the toilet, so it wont play well. [04:33] gogeta: read 90% of windows users [04:33] raylu: ^ [04:33] 1.Wubi is safe [04:33] lol [04:33] ulb: maybe an Ubuntu virtual machine with Windows as host, Windows as host :( ,but Wubi NO! [04:33] 2. Its easy to usr [04:33] earthmeLon: makes sense, i guess [04:33] earthmeLon: you gotta stop the service [04:33] use* [04:33] yeah I am all for VM too [04:34] ulb: virtual machine in that case only to get the feel for Ubuntu, not for proper usage, same thing for people that do Wubi, only to get a sort of feel [04:34] gogeta: he means that stopping the sshd service from within an ssh session doesn't [04:34] earthmeLon: sudo /etc/init.d ssh stop [04:34] gogeta: also, you're missing a / :P [04:34] lol [04:34] if you know of a good page with bash script for several ways, that would be cool too. i always check the boards first. they all want me to use synaptic, but it wasn't installed that way... [04:34] stoping it that way will keep it off [04:35] ulb: Linux as host :) other stuff in vm, that's a good set up [04:35] untill you start it or reoot the pc [04:35] reboot [04:35] 3.You cant remove the partition without walking through fire? [04:35] gogeta: 22:32:29 raylu> gogeta: he means that stopping the sshd service from within an ssh session doesn't [04:35] Got any idea what might be causeing the problem raylu? It's weird I can ping the machine on the switch, but can't get ssh access [04:35] sebsebseb: lolz [04:35] ok ok ok [04:35] :X [04:35] raylu: dud he type logout [04:35] did [04:35] lol [04:35] installed xubuntu this morning and desktop wouldn't boot. how do i diagnose? [04:36] Caleb_: Wubi is for newbies, that don't know better [04:36] Well? How do you remove the partition with ubuntu? [04:36] earthmelon, i half jumped into your conversation, but the "machine" on the switch, could it be blocking that port? [04:36] Caleb_: gparted [04:36] Caleb_: simple delete it on the Live CD in gparted [04:36] jbrew: what do you mean by "desktop"? [04:36] earthmeLon: nothing comes to mind, besides machine confusion [04:36] People who call other people noobs are truly the REAL noobs without a life...Meh. [04:36] earthmeLon: can you configure a different IP for the server? [04:36] jbrew: desktop? [04:36] IPTABLES is null and sshd_config allows 0.0.0.0 Hylian [04:37] in gparted i got an error [04:37] how do i fix it? [04:37] Do you mean I am getting things confused, raylu ? [04:37] We all use different methods [04:37] earthmeLon: perhaps [04:37] I can give it any 10.1.2.XXX address raylu [04:37] Caleb_: but not all of them are valid [04:37] didnt know that. i have to admit, i havent been a++ cert since 1993. im an old dude [04:37] Caleb_: I have used Linux before Ubuntu even existed, since 2004 [04:37] earthmeLon: try it [04:37] sorry. it's not a laptop. splash freezes and then screen reads "ttyx main process terminated with status 225" [04:38] Okay, I actually don't remember how to specifiy IP address in linux, so give me a second raylu [04:38] earthmeLon: sudo ifconfig [eth0] 10.... [04:38] *ClapClapClapCough* [04:38] init: rc-default main process terminated with status 225? [04:38] sebsebseb:Good for you.. [04:38] Caleb_: also, i feel that sebsebseb was using the original meaning of "newbie," and your use of "noob" was a misinterpretation [04:39] raylu: ifconfig > inet addr:10.1.2.75 Bcast:10.255.255.255 Mask:255.0.0.0 [04:39] noob is short for newbie.Doesnt matter [04:39] jbrew: i'd take off quiet from the boot parameters in /boot/grub/menu.lst [04:39] Caleb_: not necessarily [04:39] earthmeLon: is that a new address [04:39] raylu: ssh x@10.1.2.75 > Connection refused [04:39] Lets just talk about linux. And wiki noob [04:39] Yes, that's what I changed it to raylu [04:39] raylu: how do i access that without being able to boot [04:40] Hey guys how do i tell someone to check weather they have 32bit or 64bit ubuntu install.Whats the command? [04:40] Caleb_: i'd hardly cite wikipedia as a definitive source for internet slang [04:40] uname -a linuxguy2009 [04:40] look, there is nothing wrong with calling someone a noob or newbie, it's one of those used to be bad words like geek. i now where that tag with honor. i am a noob to linux.

[04:41] earthmeLon: here's an interesting experiment [04:41] used the alternate install iso [04:41] earthmeLon: ssh localhost; ssh 10.1.2.75 [04:41] by the way, i know this is ot, but ubuntu is the best os i have ever had. [04:41] Ubuntu. [04:41] earthmeLon: from the server itself [04:41] i was running ubuntu 8.04 and it was running great. now, i just installed 9.04 but it seems choppy. i have a p5s-mx se, asus motherboard. should i install nvidia-glx to take care of the graphics? [04:41] earthmeLon:can you ssh local to the server? [04:41] Is there a way to get natuilus to resync its listing of the available drives without restarting the computer? I changed the partition table, and the kernel took the change ok, but nautilus is listing all sorts of weird devices. My liveUSB is still on Intrepid (that's what I'm using now).

Connection Refused raylu [04:41] Hylian: look here for the uninstall script /usr/local/games/enemy-territory/uninstall.run [04:41] jbrew: can you boot in recover/single-user mode? [04:42] jaypro: i'd recommend it [04:42] raylu: nope, same result all around [04:42] thanks ctmjr, so what your telling me is most .run installer's have a uninstall script somewhere? [04:42] searched google, could not find it - how to you edit the number of lines that the mouse wheel scrolls; its not under system/pref's/mouse [04:42] earthmeLon: eh? as localhost or 10.1.2.75? [04:42] This is dumb but ubuntu 7. something wouldnt run. It said x window system failed [04:42] 2.75 [04:42] 1.51 @ localhost work [04:42] jbrew: when grub shows up, you can press e to edit a boot entry [04:42] whyd it do that?

[04:50] Hylian: yes [04:51] Hylian: and the link in /usr/local/bin [04:51] raylu: Reboot solved my problems [04:51] earthmeLon: ... [04:51] earthmeLon: interesting. now we'll never know what was wrong [04:51] hmm, ok. where do i use "rm -r" from inside the enemy-territory folder? [04:51] I've always had problems when I plug in ethernet for the first time. raylu [04:51] Hylian: no, you can't remove the directory you're currently in. sudo rm -r /usr/local/games/enemy-territory [04:52] i tried to update but it stated no enough disc space [04:52] ok cool [04:52] raylu: something keeps changing my MOTD file.

[04:56] still stated not enough disc space for update install [04:56] DarkMage26: No, just a thumb drive. 8GB PNY. It's got one fat32 partition. Is there a good way to scan it for errors?

Will it mess up my hard drive and/or windows installation? [04:57] numerouno: can you show me the output of that command? [04:57] Caleb_: no [04:57] What do i choose?

[04:58] halu [04:58] I think theres guided,use free space and one more.What do i choose? [04:58] barbarella: i don't think that's the issue [04:58] it's better if you can scrounge up anther hd, than grub wont mess with your boot sector, as long as you make sure to tell ubuntu to use that sector, so it helps if the "ubuntu" hd is the master [04:58] barbarella: i'd try mounting it first. it's probably just not being automounted [04:58] anthony_r, /sbin/fsck.vfat [04:58] Caleb_: oh, you're installing it right now? there should be multiple guided options [04:58] Caleb_: but they're pretty clear. choose what you want [04:58] ralyu: I took 'quiet splash" off of the kernel entry in GRUB and it seems to be freezing on the same lines I am getting when the live CD failed:init: Unable to execute "/sbin/getty" for tty1: No such file or directoryninit: tty1 main process (15__) terminated with status of 255 [04:59] Nah i cant do that.I got a laptop and 0$.Well im not installing now. [04:59] north central technical college 1993 grad. it's served me well, i can do wonders with windows. Ugh [04:59] jbrew: no such file or directory? sounds like we need to reinstall [04:59] hey [05:00] woi livince john [05:00] What do i choose if i wanna keep my oem os and have linux with it too, and be able to add extra programs? [05:00] On both oses [05:00] Hi All [05:00] DarkMage26: It says "There are differences between boot sector and its backup", lists a ton of stuff, and asks me to: 1) Copy original to backup, 2) Copy backup to original, or 3) No action [05:00] one last question before i go, i have noticed every 3rd of 4th install of ubuntu, grub doesnt complete it's task and i end up reinstalling ubuntu, then grub fully boots... anyone else with this problem? [05:00] Caleb_: ...it's really not that hard to figure it out, given the options presented by the installer [05:00] I need help configuring my sound system I have a p6t motherboard and I want install my drivers help [05:00] DarkMage26: Of course, I have no idea what that means. Any advice? [05:01] Hard to decide xd [05:01] Lol new emoticon [05:01] anthony_r, do you have data on it? [05:01] Ok which ones will kill my vista installation? [05:02] it's no big deal really because ubuntu installs so fast, but.. [05:02] DarkMage26: Yes [05:02] I need help configuring my sound system I have a p6t motherboard and I want install my drivers help [05:02] DarkMage26, anthony_r: i'd suggest mounting it to see if it works first... [05:02] DarkMage26: I originally used it to load UNR on my netbook (mounted the ISO onto it), and then I wiped it and put data on it. That probably doesn't matter, but FYI. [05:02] raylu: DarkMage26: Just manually mount it with mount? [05:02] anthony_r, DarkMage26: yes [05:03] anthony_r, did you reformat it after? [05:03] DarkMage26: I'm nearly certain that I did. It was a while ago. It wouldn't let me write to it if I didn't, right? [05:04] well thanx all, and bye [05:04] DarkMage26: raylu: "mount: /dev/sdb1: can't read superblock" [05:05] anthony_r, DarkMage26: ohhh. continue on, then [05:05] My question before..Which install option will mess up my vista? [05:05] raylu, it should not be able to written to it if it was formated for boot right? [05:05] raylu: DarkMage26: Is it usually best to copy original to backup or backup to original? [05:05] hello all [05:05] DarkMage26: no, bootable drives can be written to [05:06] shardedx:Hi [05:06] raylu: DarkMage26: Also, when I skipped the first error it gave me (about the backup), it said "FSINFO sector has bad magic number(s)", if that's relevant. [05:07] how do i install multiple .deb packages in a single command? packages depend on each other and hence they better be installed together... [05:07] raylu: DarkMage26: But it wouldn't be showing up as a fat32 partition if I didn't format it after UNR, right? [05:07] Now you see em, now you dont [05:07] OH that reminds me [05:07] dragon_: dpkg -i *.deb [05:07] anthony_r: unr = ubuntu netbook remix? [05:07] need a bit of help pleas i need to install a D-link DFE-520TX wired ethernet card onto my ubuntu machien but am realy new to things so i dont know wear to star [05:08] raylu: Yes. It doesn't have any optical drive, so I had to do a boot from USB to install it. [05:08] Will ubuntu install on a ntfs/fat32 drive without format? [05:09] anthony_r: i don't understand what you mean by "format it after UNR" [05:09] raylu: Well, after I installed UNR, I didn't need the thumb drive for that purpose anymore. So I formatted it to hold normal data. [05:10] raylu: I sometimes have to go back and forth between Windows machines at school, so I used fat32. [05:10] anthony_r, how did you format it afterward? [05:10] raylu: I guess NTFS might have been better, but oh well. [05:10] DarkMage26: raylu: I probably just used gparted. [05:10] When I start into GNOME, I get a big white screen. [05:10] DarkMage26: raylu: It was a little while ago, though. [05:10] does ubuntu work with windows partitions? [05:10] Caleb_: Don't install it to NTFS or FAT32, but I believe it read/writes them fine. [05:10] Caleb_, no, you'll need ext3 or ext4 for the / partition [05:11] anthony_r, what did it say when you tried to mount it manually? [05:11] bastidrazor: ext2? [05:11] Oh noes then...Will it have to format? [05:11] bastidrazor: actually, those aren't your only options, but that's besides the point [05:11] DarkMage26: raylu: "mount: /dev/sdb1: can't read superblock" [05:12] mefached, who would want to go backwards.. [05:12] raylu, true but ext3 and ext4 are the best options [05:12] bastidrazor:Do i have to formar c: to install? [05:12] format* [05:12] #ubuntu-es [05:13] Caleb_, you'll need to have a seperate partition.. and it seems you've been told these things before. [05:13] bastidrazor: ext2 works fine. I'm nostalgic about simpler things like that. [05:13] bastidrazor: I've had a Slackware box running ext2 for like seven years. [05:13] mefached: teehee, are you nostalgic about lack of dependency resolution too? [05:13] Caleb_: Make a new partition? [05:14] raylu: Dependency resolution? I don't even use tarballs. I install my software with a magnifying glass and a magnetic needle. [05:14] sorry i got killed but will i have to format c to make a new linux ext partition? [05:14] mefached: you forgot the steady hand [05:14] Caleb_: Make a new partition. [05:14] Can any one help i have placed this command in startup applications (sleep 3 && cairo-clock) its not working [05:15] Caleb_: You can resize the Windows partition, but I recommend two separate drives for simplicity. [05:15] anthony_r, so it will read the fact that the drive is attached but it won't mount, right? [05:15] does anyone know of a plugin or driver that allows ubuntu 9.04 to recognize iPod Touches as Mp3 players instead of digital cameras? [05:15] *has already spent expansive time on google* [05:15] In the linux install thing can you partition without c getting formatted? [05:15] Devon_C: Ubuntu 9.04 is pretty new, so I don't know if you'll be able to find anything. [05:15] DarkMage26: Yes. It shows up in dmesg and lsusb. Mount doesn't complain about the drive not being there, just that it has a bad superblock. [05:16] mefached: thats what I feared [05:16] Devon_C: amarok should support it [05:16] Caleb_: Resize it. Do it manually. That's why I suggest a new drive entirely. [05:16] SnakDoc: no, it's an issue with mounting [05:16] *test* [05:16] Devon_C: Even windows does that.Im on my ipod touch === msalil87 is now known as vise [05:16] Devon_C: which version did you try ? [05:16] Caleb_: Well you can install iTunes on Windows [05:17] Doesn't iTunes work in WINE? [05:17] mefached: not 8 [05:17] Well i got about 210gb free.What should i resize it to for ubuntu? [05:17] Or should it be sleep 2; exec cairo-clock [05:17] SnakDoc: I havent used amarok, but I've tried to use gtkpod, RhythmBox, and Banshee [05:17] Caleb_: Are you resizing NTFS or FAT32? You should back it up regardless, but resizing NTFS is... strange. [05:17] raylu: attempting reinstall... ext 2, 3, or 4 for root? [05:18] need help installing drivers pleas so i can get my internet up and running pleas [05:18] whats the name of the app default ubuntu has to make bootable usb sticks? [05:18] I might just wait until iTunes 8 is supported with Wine [05:18] jbrew: ext3 for root, ext4 for everything else, I believe is the best. [05:18] guys how do i properly use fsck ? fsck.vfat says ''-t and -w require -a or -r'' [05:18] Devon_C: i look up know an see what they use for it [05:18] jbrew: be a rebel and use xfs [05:18] mefached:no idea.I can convert it to fat32.Is that suppprted? [05:18] SnakDoc: use what for what? [05:18] Devon_C: The linux equivalent of iTunes is Songbird [05:19] Caleb_: Convert an NTFS partition to FAT32? o.o [05:19] soreau: does it support all iPods and have the Music Store? [05:19] hi, i have this weird issue where my sound 'crashes' and keeps repeating continuously, until i kill the process, but it remains broken after that until i reboot... [05:19] Devon_C: amarok uses some libary [05:19] soreau: I have Banshee and RhythmBox already [05:19] Easyness [05:19] raylu: and the difference would be? [05:19] Devon_C: It has a lot of plugins and looks clean plus, it works. Google it [05:19] jbrew: nevermind, just take mefached's advice and use ext3 [05:19] soreau: I'll give it a shot, thanks [05:20] but really, I think it's a problem with mounting [05:20] hello [05:20] Caleb_: I recommend just backing it up and trying to resize. GParted should resize it fine, but resizing NTFS takes some time, so you'll have to wait a bit. [05:20] and, the thing is, I've tried ripping my music using gnomad2 [05:20] i got a question about ubuntu server edition. i know that both ubuntu and kubuntu have their respective GUI packages that have special utilities to notify you of packages you need to update from bugfix/security point of view. Is there anything like that on server edition command line? does apt-get/aptitude have some similar functionality? [05:20] Okay [05:20] Devon_C: this maybe option http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Media_Device:IPod#iPod_Touch_and_iPhone [05:21] guys how do i properly use fsck ? fsck.vfat says ''-t and -w require -a or -r'' [05:21] Buenos dias ¿ alguien sabe si LInux posee alguna version alternativa como ubuntu , ademas de la version LIve ? [05:21] SnakDoc amarok in jaunty doesn't show the Enable MP3 support prompt. that led to getting the required libraries in gutsy. any ideas how to do it manually? [05:21] anthony_r, DarkMage26: unless DarkMage26 has some further objections, let's just copy the backup to original [05:21] SnakDoc: I'm not jailbreaking my iPod [05:21] snif: I don't speak Spanish. Mind translating that with Google Translator [05:21] anthony_r: is the data on there vital? [05:21] Pusha: man fsck.vfat [05:22] Devon_C: Non-jailbroken iPod = useless [05:22] mefached: I prefer to keep my warranties, thanks [05:22] Dulak ? wtf that dont do anything [05:22] Devon_C: i can't say 100% cause i don't have a ipod [05:22] mefached: when it runs out, then maybe [05:22] !es | snif [05:22] snif: 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. [05:22] Devon_C: Apple repairing your iPod? Most third-party repairmen are better, faster, and cheaper. [05:22] Pusha: it shows you the manual page for fsck.vfat [05:22] is there anything like norton ghost for ubuntu [05:22] raylu: DarkMage26: I don't believe so. I don't exactly remember, so probably not. But I'm afraid I'll remember right after I lose it. :p [05:22] mefached: maybe so, but bringing that idea to my parents would not fly [05:23] dpreacher, i've noticed on 9.04 when you ssh in the motd will tell you if X number of updates are available [05:23] mefached: they're not so technologically literate [05:23] Devon_C: Why not? Is it theirs? [05:23] Devon_C: Warranties are 99% of the time useless. [05:23] Where is the network configuration stored in ubuntu? Like the IP, gateway etc? [05:23] mefached: lets not get into specifics [05:23] Devon_C: You don't need to jailbreak anything to use songbird [05:23] bastidrazor...so its important that the motd be never touched... [05:23] soreau: No, but most actually useful apps for iPods require jailbreaking. [05:23] my mpa_supplicant can't connect to AP, but before I updated to 9.04 it worked. [05:23] were can i get the windows 7 download === [1]Sergeant_Pony is now known as Sergeant_Pony2 [05:24] mefached: I wouldn't know, don't own one ;) [05:24] donavan_: Microsoft [05:24] soreau: I don't either. I'm just saying. [05:24] dpreacher, yes and no.. when you log in just run apt-get or aptitude. that is how i do it. regardless of being told an update is available [05:24] vise:/etc/network/interfaces [05:24] donavan_: You're asking in the wrong channel btw [05:24] donavan_: BitTorrent. :D [05:24] is there anything like norton ghost for ubuntu [05:24] Dulak i know from manual apge i try fsck.vfat -t then it say "-t and -w reuire -a or -r" so if i do "fsck.vfat -t -a" it do nothing [05:24] redsoxking: Google is your friend. [05:24] redsoxking: For what? [05:24] hi Devon_C ! [05:24] mefached: and to be honest, all I use my iPod touch for is music, maps, and a little weather [05:25] oh hey mdg [05:25] I have accidentally deleted notify from start-up application can some one do me a favour and help me add it back on please [05:25] mdg: I'm trying songbird to see if THAT works [05:25] ! virus | redsoxking [05:25] redsoxking: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [05:25] Devon_C: any luck with your ipod touch? [05:25] mdg: I'm still at it lol [05:25] one more thing is windows 7 still out on beta ? [05:25] redsoxking: Anti-virus on Linux = snake oil. [05:25] donavan_: ask in ##windows [05:25] dpreacher, mine is customized but i didn't really pay any attention to the update message since i ran apt-get every day [05:25] so aptitude which am more comfortable with...run without params...would show that ncurses interface...so is there anything in there that can start download of the 'critical' updates bastidrazor. [05:25] !backup | redsoxking [05:25] redsoxking: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning [05:25] donavan_: Its RC now.. yeah.. ask in #windows [05:26] to back up my ubuntu just incase after a trial boot of windows 7 [05:26] guys how do i properly use fsck ? fsck.vfat says ''-t and -w require -a or -r'' [05:26] Pusha: I usually do fsck /dev/whatever [05:26] Devon_C: http://gtkpod.wikispaces.com/Supported+iPods [05:26] you just ran apt-get everyday...means whats the exact command? apt-get itself? bastidrazor? [05:26] Can anybody help me with wpa_supplicant? It warked in 8.10 and I hve wpa.conf file. [05:26] Can somebody tell me where I can manually edit Gnome's bookmarks? [05:26] Pusha: use -a then.. [05:26] ziroday MY hd wont mount i wanna chck it for errors [05:26] mdg: odd, I have a first gen 16 gig [05:26] donavan_, not sure about the win7 download, but if you find it, get familiar with http://www.malwareremoval.com [05:27] mdg: they might have to be jailbroken, though [05:27] ascheel: I believe the command is alacarte in Alt+F2. [05:27] ascheel, in home dir [05:27] Pusha: okay, well fire up a livecd and fsck it [05:27] dpreacher, i prefer apt-get when running manually .. i have a script that runs aptitude --safe-upgrade [05:27] Why is it now, that even with Madwifi drivers... My internet crawls when using wireless? [05:27] mefached, alacarte? [05:27] ascheel check PM? [05:27] linuxguy2009: can you tell me what PM is? [05:27] how often do you run the aptitude script? can you share it? bastidrazor [05:27] Keo: what card, drivers and version of ubuntu? Do you have ipv6 enabled? [05:27] ascheel: Press Alt+F2 and when asked for what to run, type alacarte. It modifies GNOME's menu. [05:27] prime minister [05:27] private message [05:27] ascheel, no in Home dir! Bopkmark lies in hidden file [05:27] mefached, thank you. :) [05:27] I sent you for 1 on 1 help [05:28] Besogon, you know the name of it?

[05:28] Keo: hmm there shouldn't be any troubles with that card, did you compile the madwifi drivers from source? [05:28] Yes ubottu Im a bad person for giving 1 on 1 advice.thank you. [05:28] Shardded: What is it listed as in the output of 'lspci' in your terminal? [05:29] linuxguy2009: Post your help in the channel so we can correct you if you're wrong and make sure you're giving good advice. Also more than one person may need it. [05:29] I will use wubi.Does that let me choose what software i get bundled? [05:29] ziroday, yeah, they work in any other distro. Ubuntu just crawls along though. I'd be lucky to hit 1Kb/s [05:29] Devon_C: you have libgpod [05:29] Caleb_: nope, but you can change that after the install [05:29] mdg: no I have gtkpod [05:29] Im sending PMs cause its no elses business who I help.Nothing personal. [05:29] ziroday bro no internet on it, but theres only one entry and it says /dev/sda1 [05:29] ascheel, ~./.gtk-bookmarks [05:29] linuxguy2009: New to Open Source?

[05:30] Besogon, thanks. :) [05:30] Shardded: You didn't answer my question [05:30] Im here contributing and looks like im getting flamed. hmm [05:30] Pusha: okay, well do sudo fsck /dev/sda1 [05:30] ziroday, yep, same deal. [05:30] linuxguy2009: there are some jokers who think it's funny to tell newbies to "rm -rf /". That's why we like to see what advice is being given...

Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [05:30] Devon_C: libgpod goes with gtkpod [05:30] mdg: I have to download both? [05:30] ziroday, Although, they had a higher failure rate when connecting to the AP. [05:30] linuxguy2009: You were asked rather politely to keep it to the channel so we all can benefit. That's the point of FOSS. [05:31] Keo: then I really have no idea sorry [05:31] Ok well im here and Im going to continue to help via PM that is my peronsal choice. Im contributing. [05:31] ziroday, No problem, I'll continue whacking away at it to see what I can dig up.

Wat program should I use? [05:31] ziroday it said fsck.ext2 permissin denied while trting to open /dev/sda1 u must have r/w access or be root [05:31] Keo: good luck [05:31] linuxguy2009: No you aren't. If you're not going to contribute in FOSS style, your contributions aren't wanted. [05:32] Pusha: erm you did do sudo fsck /dev/sda1 correct? And you haven't mounted the drive have you? [05:32] His intellectual age is 1 [05:32] mdg: I know this is "hurrr" question, but after I download a zipped .tar.gz, what do I do? open it with Synaptic? [05:32] Devon_C: tar -xzvvf (tarball here) [05:32] Threetimes2: What formats/codecs are supported on your phone? [05:32] linuxguy2009: can't say you're much of a linuxguy then... [05:32] Devon_C: just double click it and a zip program will open [05:32] mdg: I've been up since 5 and it's 0030 right now :| [05:32] Threetimes2: rip it with ogmrip, and then convert it/downsize it with avidemux [05:32] mdg: yeah but then what, extract it? [05:32] linuxguy2009: Installing Ubuntu last week doesn't make you a linuxguy. [05:33] Devon_C: it will ask where you want it extracted, etc, like windows zip [05:33] Devon_C: that command extracts it [05:33] devon_c:Double clicking is the solution to all of lifes problems [05:33] soreau , host bridge : Via Technolagies Inc VT8601 [Appolo Pro media] [05:33] Devon_C: Use the command-line tar utility.

[05:33] it supports 3GP, MPEG4, DivX, WMV, AVI, H.263, H.264 [05:33] ziroday i did it now with sudo and i got "fsck.ntfs: not found" "Error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs for /dev/sda1" [05:33] lol guys, chill out.

[05:33] Devon_C: "tar -xzvvf (tarball filename)" [05:33] That's the second time that linuxguy2009 has bailed me out tonight alone [05:33] Threetimes2: alternatively, mencoder [05:33] Threetimes2: okay, then rip it with ogmrip and downsize it with avidemux [05:34] soreau yes the D-link DFE-520TX [05:34] jaypro: what's your graphic card? [05:34] raylu: ogmrip uses mencoder, so does avidemux [05:34] Gnea it's intergrated with the motherboard [05:34] Devon_C: should check the mountpoint - should be /mnt/ipod [05:34] ascheel: Yes, and he's not helping the community by refusing to use the chat at large. It's bad style, and it's not how this community works. [05:34] Threetimes2: * http://mediacoder.sourceforge.net/ [05:34] linuxguy2009 says he is born in 2009.

[05:37] brb gotta go get it... [05:37] Hi, all. My "special needs" client was given an old computer with a crippled version of windows ME with do way to fix it. I wanted to give him ubuntu instead, but I'm having problems with installation. I am not good at ubuntu problems. It seems to be a video issue as the background image shows up pixelated during install and the menu tries to come up, but it goes black instead and nothing happens. I have tried leaving it for hours to [05:37] My way helps individuals who need the help.It works quite well for them. [05:37] linuxguy2009: It's not difficult, really. [05:37] bastidrazor alias aptitude=aptitude --safe-upgrade...something similar. but won't it then upgrade even larger packages just because an update is there and its safe to get it. do the gui tools for such updates also get major updates? [05:37] linuxguy2009: in Ubuntu, there is the Ubuntu way of doing things... it's part of the whole 'humanity toward others'... [05:37] quick Q, I use Xubuntu, and the applications menu disappeared. The xfce panel is stillthere with some of the utilities, just no applications meno or places menu. How can I fix this? [05:37] Shardded: What is? [05:37] regressless: Hardware? [05:37] But the only thing is that its not official ubuntu.Its a derivative made by pc user australia.Its based on hardy heron just with like 20 extra apps.Am i still an ubuntu user or a pc user useros extreme user? [05:37] * dpreacher wonders if apt will have Presto like delta-debs [05:38] !derivatives > Caleb_ [05:38] soreau , ifconfig [05:38] Caleb_, please see my private message [05:38] linuxguy2009: Our way also helps individuals, but it helps more than one on many occasions. You're being wasteful [05:38] dpreacher: that is planned, take a look at apt-delta [05:38] I am using ubuntu in vmware and configured a NAT. But its not configured properly. ping to servers work, but connection always fails. Firefox doesnt go beyond 'connecting...'.. Any ideas how i could go about this? [05:38] Shardded: And? Have you an eth0 interface? [05:38] I cant see pms [05:38] linuxguy2009: also, this channel is publicly logged, so all of your advice really DOES reach others. [05:39] !derivatives | Caleb_ [05:39] Caleb_: There are some Ubuntu derivatives that we cannot provide support for due to repository and software changes.

Examples: gNewSense (support in #gnewsense), Linux Mint (see !mintsupport), LinuxMCE (support in #linuxmce), crunchbang (support in #crunchbang) [05:39] Im being very efficient.Ive helped a good 10 people today I feel great for doing so and encourage others to do the same. [05:39] soreau , no just the lo [05:39] vise: I usually used bridged networking. Why did you choose NAT? [05:39] dpreacher, aptitude will upgrade just the same as synaptic. [05:39] Shardded: Ok, then you need to load the driver for it [05:39] losher: I have a dialup. [05:39] linuxguy2009: We've helped more than that I'm sure. Right now, down the road, and so on. [05:39] meh it IS exactly the same anyway [05:39] linuxguy2009: This model works for a reason. [05:39] linuxguy2009: that's actually inefficient. to be more efficient, keep it in the channel and you'll help not 10 people, but 40-80 people, easily. [05:39] great i'll give it a try. thanks bastidrazor :) [05:39] mdg: whats the /mnt thing under? [05:39] Yeas [05:40] Does any body knows anything about rescue [05:40] Devon_C: see on your desktop an icon that says "Computer", click that [05:40] dpreacher, good luck [05:40] !anyone | waqar [05:40] waqar: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [05:40] !rescue [05:40] To rescue a broken system, boot the alternate install CD and select "Rescue a broken system" [05:40] Devon_C: you should see a file manager come up [05:40] mdg: yeah [05:40] is there a way to do dry-run of aptitude --safe-upgrade bastidrazor...to see what updates will get downloaded...so i could choose if needed... [05:40] Devon_C: now click on "Filesystem" [05:41] mdg: okay [05:41] how do I remove the partial transparency of the window border and chrome? [05:41] linuxguy2009: And start prefacing your lines with names... it makes it highlight, and it's really simple. Use the nick completer. [05:41] Devon_C: with your ipod plugged in, click on the /mnt folder [05:41] OK, How do i rescue a system using live CD, fedora 10, is it possible [05:41] mdg: yeah i dont see anything [05:41] mdg: hidden file? [05:41] soreau, thats what i have bean trying to figuer out how too for the last 12 houres XD i know that you cant compile the drivers in ubuntu like the D-Link instructoins state so im defnatly lost and its my first time using a linix invirment [05:41] Vise:Vmware internet doesnt work for me either.Consider using wubi if you dont wanna partition [05:41] Devon_C: it shouldn't be [05:41] Ok I'm gonna end the night of contributing help to others with a positive note and call it a day. I will be back again tommorow to help in my free time, hopefully not get banned for doing a jood service. Your all awsome! Goodnight everyone. [05:41] mdg: yeah, nothing [05:41] linuxguy2009: you'll find that your way doesn't mesh too well here... but if you can avoid the PM help, you'll do good. [05:41] ziroday i did it now with sudo and i got "fsck.ntfs: not found" "Error 2 while executing fsck.ntfs for /dev/sda1" [05:41] okay, one more place to check [05:41] waqar: it depends on what's wrong with the broken system... [05:42] linuxguy2009: Fail. [05:42] no grub [05:42] Pusha: yes, you cannot run fsck against an ntfs volume [05:42] Devon_C: go up a directory level and click on /dev [05:42] mefached: I'll get it plugged back in to see more details. I gave him a half gig of old pc133 i had laying around and a newer hard drive [05:42] linuxguy2009: In the meantime, we'll be helping much more people through archived help. [05:42] mdg: yeah [05:42] Dont hurry linuxguy2009 [05:42] Devon_C: you are looking for something like /dev/sdc [05:42] linuxguy2009: we're trying to be nice... if you do get banned, it will be on your own accord. [05:42] regressless: PC133? Meaning a 133 Mhz processor? I'm unfamiliar with the name. [05:42] Shardded: Ah, in that case show me the link that tells your how to compile your drivers and maybe I can help [05:42] I love you Caleb. God bless. [05:42] mefached: I believe he means the type of ram he's using [05:42] ziroday ok what a waste of time [05:42] Uh oh [05:43] anyone know howto get back thae applications/places drop down menu? [05:43] Ima guy [05:43] dpreacher, add a -P to the syntax.. aptitude --safe-upgrade -P ... that will give you a prompt [05:43] Caleb_: you just got pwned. :) [05:43] This is odd... The card seems to spike when you first enable it, and then it hits the toilet from there. [05:43] regressless: If the computer is old enough to use PC133, I'd definitely like to see the specs. [05:43] Is there a way to install on a computer without a monitor keyboard or mouse, but connected to the network? [05:43] travissein: add it to the menubar [05:43] I meant you leaving [05:43] cool [05:43] i have an sdc [05:43] can someone tell me about the chat client Epipathy [05:43] !install | q_ see network install [05:43] q_ see network install: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate [05:43] i didn't see any... [05:43] ziroday no way i can somehow mount/try to get data off it? [05:43] sleepy_cat: Google can. [05:43] mefached: pc 133 ram, sorry [05:43] Take a holiday or something on your wah [05:43] mdg: I see sdc [05:43] waqar: in theory I don't see why it shouldn't work. Dunno if it will actually work in practice though.... [05:43] Devon_C: what else in that directory? [05:43] mdg: want me to click it? [05:43] yeah but when i search for epipathy+ubuntu it gives no results [05:43] mdg: it's not a folder [05:44] soreau , its on the driver cd and it dousent it just says compile the driver and rinefet.o will generate [05:44] <^cheeky> hi, iam using ubuntu 9.04 and when i play tv shows on hulu, it works fine in the small box but when i click full screen it gets all choppy and goes frame by frame, i read online that if you have compiz you just go under settings and uncheck "undirect full screen window" but the thing is i dont have compiz installed on my machine [05:44] sleepy_cat: Just search for the program. [05:44] Pusha: well if its corrupted no, you need to run chkdisk against it. Ask in ##windows how to do that [05:44] Devon_C: you can click it and see what happens [05:44] OK thanx, i also found an article [05:44] sleepy_cat: Make sure you're spelling it right. Is it Epiphany? [05:44] Shardded: Ok, does it have a Makefile in the driver sources? [05:44] may be this will help [05:44] Ill be back [05:44] Caleb_: and someone should mention to that guy that religious references should be avoided [05:44] mdg: says it cant open it - no application for it [05:44] sleepy_cat: do you mean empathy or epiphany. The latter being a web browser and the earlier an IM client [05:44] soreau , yes [05:44] mdg: you know that I only have libgpod only extracted right? [05:44] ^cheeky: Full screen doesn't work for me in 9.04 either. [05:44] empathy [05:44] Devon_C: I think your ipod is mounted at /dev/sdc [05:44] sleepy_cat: Yeah, you're looking for empathy. Google that. [05:44] sorry for the spelling mistake [05:45] <^cheeky> mefached, :( [05:45] ^cheeky: Works fine in 8.04 though. [05:45] ok mefached is there some chat client better than empathy [05:45] sleepy_cat: Pidgin's perfect. [05:45] <^cheeky> mefached, yeah i used to remember it worked [05:45] Devon_C: just need to figure out how to tell rhythmbox or gtkpod that's where to find it. [05:45] no i dont want pidgin [05:45] Shardded: Get the sources to a place on your ubuntu machine, like ~/src/wifi for example, then change into the directory that the makefile is in and then run 'make' [05:45] sleepy_cat: I already told you about best and better. Its relative. [05:45] hi, guys. i have lost sound in videos in firefox and opera. sound works fine in epiphany. i haven't changed anything since last night. how can i fix this? [05:45] sleepy_cat: If you mean IRC, XChat or irssi (one is GUI, one is console) [05:45] Devon_C: feel like firing up Rhythmbox? [05:45] mdg: should I try Songbird? [05:45] mdg: sure [05:45] sleepy_cat: If you're running KDE, Kopete is good, otherwise, Pidgin's by far the best. :/ [05:46] no i meant something like pidgin [05:46] actually on pidgin there is yahoo problems [05:46] so.... [05:46] i was searching some other chat client [05:46] sleepy_cat: Google "yahoo chat client ubuntu" then. [05:46] Devon_C: after you start rhythmbox, click on Edit > Preferences [05:46] you can fix by upgraing to newest pidgin [05:46] mefached: before it had pc 100, a quarter gig's worth [05:46] sleepy_cat: the yahoo issue is being fixed, keep your system up to date and a fix will be shipped shortly [05:46] sleepy_cat: Also, yes, upgrade Pidgin fixes it [05:46] Devon_C: sorry Edit/ Plugins [05:47] regressless: I don't recommend Ubuntu for a machine that old. Perhaps Zenwalk. [05:47] ziroday: the point is that I have access to the cd, but no monitor or keyboard or mouse attached to the server .... so I can put a CD/DVD in the CD/DVD reader .... but then I have to manage the installation from a laptop connected to the network .... [05:47] mdg: mhmm [05:47] ziroday: I cannot find the appropriate option [05:47] q_: sure, the guides in !install explain how to do that, look for network install or install over ssh [05:47] Devon_C: On the rhythmbox main window, click Edit > Plugins [05:48] mdg: yeah in the window [05:48] sleepy_cat: http://www.pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ [05:48] Devon_C: scroll down and make sure there is a checkmark in "Portable Players - ipod" [05:48] mefached: keep in mind that this is for a child-like person. I'm actually nervous about ubuntu, but I'm sure not going to buy a windows key, although xp works, surprisingly [05:48] mdg: yep [05:48] q_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation go to Server and Network Installations [05:48] Devon_C: May as well checkmark Portable players - MTP [05:48] sleepy_cat: that works with yahoo and using now [05:48] mdg: did that too [05:48] Devon_C: Okay click the close button to get rid of that window [05:49] Gnea so i already have xserver-xorg-video-sis installed. i just configure xorg per http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=345492 ?? [05:49] ziroday: I have already looked at them .... but it does not seem to b covered!! [05:49] Devon_C: back at the main rhythmbox window [05:49] regressless: Zenwalk isn't much harder than Ubuntu. Although Linux may be a bit difficult for your target. :/ I recommend XP anyway. [05:49] Devon_C: make sure you can see the side panel (shows up on the left) [05:49] ok i shall update pidgin [05:49] thanks [05:49] mdg: the source list, okay [05:49] q_: err yes they do apply, however its by no means a simple process [05:50] hi, guys. i have lost sound in videos in firefox and opera. sound works fine in epiphany. i haven't changed anything since last night. how can i fix this? [05:50] regressless: I don't see why Ubuntu would be any less usable by a child than XP, if it's just for browsing/email. In fact, there'd be fewer problems with pop-ups/viruses etc. [05:50] binMonkey: Try restarting? [05:50] losher: Apparently Ubuntu is giving trouble with installation. Pixelated graphics, etc. [05:50] regressless: Sounds like a graphics issue. [05:50] I'm guessing IPv6 is integrated into the kernel in Jaunty, yes? [05:50] mefached: i've tried that twice. [05:51] Devon_C: did you get an entry there for "devices" (may have to scroll down a little" [05:51] mefached: I have a key for xp home, but my disk is scratched up. downloaded xp home sp3 and it says my key is invalid. don't know how to help the guy now, been sifting through viruses all day looking for a crack [05:51] binMonkey: Purge alsa-base and reinstall it. [05:51] ziroday: I read them .... but do not understand .... the server has a CD/DVD reader .... which is the guide I should refer to?? Maybe I missed something .... [05:51] Power: XP < Linux. Ease-of-compatibility.... xp is easier than ubuntu [05:51] binMonkey: You may need to reinstall gdm. I think alsa-base takes that out with it. [05:51] to get drivers working... that's the hardest part [05:51] Devon_C: my mp3 player shows up below "Stores" [05:51] mdg: no [05:51] mefached: thanks. i'll try it. [05:51] regressless: Torrent a cracked XP. [05:52] losher: u may be right, but I know how to lock down xp to keep the curious idiots out [05:52] regressless: If you have a key that for some reason won't work, it's gray-area legality, but it's fine. [05:52] keo: as far as i know [05:52] Shardded: You will most likely need kernel headers installed to compile it successfully [05:52] regressless: plenty of linux choices for slower machines e.g. damn small linux. puppy linux, ubuntu 8.04 [05:52] Shardded: As well as the build-essential package [05:52] q_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/NetworkConsole [05:52] SnakDoc, I guess I'm screwed on the wireless, unless I recompile the kernel. [05:52] regressless: Try 8.04 instead of 9.04. [05:52] Devon_C: Try clicking on "Music" and then "rescan media" [05:53] keo: no supports both ipv6 and ipv4 [05:53] ziroday: the point is the DVD reader is on the server, but the installation is managed from a laptop .... because the server does not have a keyboard or a mouse or a monitor .... [05:53] regressless: it;s your choice. I don't think there's any right/wrong answer. Picking the easiest for you to maintain is a reasonable thing to do [05:53] mdg: yeah tried that too, I think we went through this the other day as well [05:53] If i have 4gb ram will using wubi drastically slow down ubuntu or will it be ok? [05:53] keo: on wireless now running ipv4 with out any problems [05:53] q_: please read the help page above [05:53] SnakDoc, But I can't have ipv6 support running, it makes the wireless connection crawl to a halt. [05:53] ziroday: but the DVD reader to be used is on the server itself [05:53] Caleb_: wubi will run fine, there is a slight performance hit however [05:53] Devon_C: one more thing to try [05:53] q_: yes that is correct [05:53] Devon_C: Click on Edit and go to Preferences [05:53] i just realized i messed up the install with ubuntu 8.04 server, is there a way to redo it? [05:54] click the Music tab [05:54] soreau , ok i ran make and it spit out a bunch of errors [05:54] keo: you can disable that in firefox i know for sure not sure what other areas it can be edited [05:54] So no lag? [05:54] Bumpin: Yeah, do it again and format the old one. [05:54] i tried booting from the same disk but it wont let me [05:54] Devon_C: Browse to /dev/sdc [05:54] Caleb_: Shouldn't lag too badly with that much RAM. [05:54] Caleb_: It's a slight hit, but it's not -slow-. [05:54] where would aptatude install phpbb3 by default? [05:54] SnakDoc, I need it disabled globally, not just in firefox. :\ [05:54] mefached, it wont let me boot from disk [05:54] sharddeddx: Did you get my posts I sent to Shardded ? [05:55] Bumpin: Is the CD the first in the BIOS boot menu? [05:55] i made it 1st [05:55] soreau , no sorry disconected [05:55] and it still didnt boot from disk [05:55] ziroday: that help document requires you to have the possibility to create a DVD, which I do not have [05:55] Bumpin: Try getting a new CD then. [05:55] q_: you can create a CD [05:55] mdg: wont let me [05:55] keo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=6841 [05:55] mdg: sdc isn't highlighted [05:55] darn! [05:55] ill try it out mefached [05:55] yeah man [05:55] ._. [05:56] sharddeddx: You will most likely need kernel headers installed to compile it successfully as well as the build-essential package at least [05:56] Devon_C: I know you are so close... [05:56] anyone know howto get back thae applications/places drop down menu? i dont see any modules to add back to the panel [05:56] mdg: my first step I want to take care of is making sure its mounted correctly [05:57] mdg: then I want to use gnomad2 or whatever to rip the music off of it [05:57] Devon_C: what format is the music in? [05:57] ziroday: I just told you I cannot! [05:57] travissein: system > preferences > main menu [05:57] soreau , ok but isent the irony in this that you have to go online on ubuntu itself to get those and i need those to get on line? [05:57] Devon_C: actually you would use gtkpod to transfer the music off/on it [05:57] mdg: a little bit of mp4 (songs bought in the iTunes Music Store), but mostly mp3 [05:58] mdg: so I can uninstall gnomad? [05:58] Devon_C: I think so [05:58] q_: then you use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/OverSSH (which I gave you before) [05:58] sharddeddx: Ah yes. This is a trick :p [05:58] My laptop is an acer aspire 5536g with 4gb ram and a AMD Athlon 64x2 processor QL 64(2.1ghz) Graphics card:ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4570 Up to 1791 mb hypermemory.Will ubuntu run ok under wubi with those specs? [05:58] sharddeddx: Which version of ubuntu? [05:58] SnakDoc: i can't get to system>preferences>main menu because i don't have a menu :( [05:58] Caleb_: yes [05:58] soreau , 9.04 [05:59] Will it lag? [05:59] Caleb_: Yes, it will. I've run Ubuntu under Wubi in weaker. [05:59] okay i'be been up for about 21 hours [05:59] soooo [05:59] gonna grab some sleep [05:59] Devon_C: try this [05:59] Caleb_: I have never tried Wubi in 64-bit though. Let us know how that works. [05:59] mdg: okay man make it quick [05:59] Caleb_: nope [05:59] travissein:: o i was thinking you ment just the application part was missing [05:59] at a terminal type "sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt/ipod [05:59] lol [05:59] Devon_C: without quotes [06:00] Ok it was blisteringly fast through livecd though? [06:00] ziroday: it is a completely blank server! how can I use the install over ssh? [06:00] can anyone tell me what minimum number of packages would be needed on ubuntu-server to run X11 apps over ssh? [06:00] Caleb_: it will run fine [06:00] travissein: you still have bars ? [06:00] travissein: run "gnome-panel" in your terminal, should restore the menus. [06:00] Awesome [06:00] sharddeddx: Ok, here's what you do [06:00] SnakDoc: yeah it's really werid; thunar was acting up, so i found a fix online, installed the deb packages, and then my Applications and Places menu dissapeared :( [06:00] voila! I had forgotten to do the ICS from my dialup to LAN2 [06:00] ziroday: blank as in absolutey nothing of any sort installed on it [06:00] k, will try; restarting the ps3 for linux fun time [06:01] mdg: it says mount point mnt/ipod does not exist [06:01] Ok,gonna watch coldplay concert on tv, thanks for all your help.You guys are awesome. [06:01] q_: then you can use this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/Netboot please just actually read the section I gave you and pick the most appropriate one. [06:01] Caleb_, the only limiting factor of Wubi is disk I/O [06:01] Caleb_: i went to see them at verizon Center [06:01] otherwise it runs as fast as normal Ubuntu [06:01] amazing concert [06:01] Devon_C: try again "sudo /dev/scd2 /mnt/ipod (note slashes and spaces) [06:01] sharddeddx:Put the live 9.04 cd in your cdrom drive and then get to Sys>Admin>Software Sources. There, disable all but cdrom and then click update. After that close the window then do 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' [06:02] oops /dev/sdc2 [06:02] MrNfector: I'm running Xubuntu; will that still work even though I'm running xfce? [06:02] I transposed - sorry [06:02] SnakDoc: No, my xfce panel is still there, and all the icons/modules are still there except for the applications and places drop down menus [06:02] mdg: it says command not found [06:02] Sorry i got disconnected.Did someone say something to me? I heard the huge "BEEP!!" [06:02] travissein: right click hit add to panel find main menu [06:03] caleb_: yeah [06:03] caleb_: i went and saw coldplay at the verizon center last august [06:03] travissein: I'm sorry, I must have missed that part. No, I'm not sure how to do that with xfce. [06:03] What was it? [06:03] Devon_C: "sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt/ipod" (without quotes [06:03] SnakDoc: I'll try; still starting up T_T [06:03] Cool [06:03] caleb_: AMAZING [06:03] thats what it was [06:03] They rule [06:03] travissein: see if thats what you want i am running gnome not sure if same for you [06:03] MrNfector: OK thanks tho :) [06:03] im back after a nasty disconect [06:03] mdg: "mount: mount point /mnt/ipod does not exist" [06:04] If you wanna see go on channel mtv [06:04] SnakDoc: Yeah I was running gnome, but with no graphics acceleration 2D or 3D, its a little much for the PS3 [06:04] can anyone tell me what minimum number of packages would be needed on ubuntu-server to run X11 apps over ssh? [06:04] SnakDoc: *Hardware acceleration [06:04] Devon_C: "cd /mnt" and "ls", tell me what you see. [06:04] SnakDoc: And fluxbox is TOO minimalistic for my taste :3 [06:04] i typed in "cd /mnt" [06:04] then a new line came up [06:05] after I hit enter [06:05] and it says "/mnt$ " [06:05] Devon_C: Now type "ls" [06:05] mdg: yes, then I hit enter and a new line with the same thing came up [06:05] travissein:try the lightweight os called UBUNTU [06:05] Caleb_:Xubuntu ftw [06:05] ziroday: thanks a lot [06:05] Devon_C: mefached is guiding you in making directory [06:06] Caleb_: Distro isn't WM. I use Ubuntu, but I don't use GNOME. I use IceWM. [06:06] mdg: oh... my bad. like i said... up for 21 hours [06:06] Devon_C: that's a long time!! [06:06] Xubuntu is good [06:06] mdg: yeeeah. 5am to now 1 am [06:06] Devon_C: If "ipod" doesn't come up, type "sudo mkdir /mnt/ipod" and put in your password [06:07] Devon_C: Then do what mdg said earlier. [06:07] mefached: nothing happened [06:07] Devon_C: Don't worry. After a short while, you'll be more comfortable with the terminal. [06:07] mefached:kde then or xfce? [06:07] soreau , you still thear? [06:07] same thing happened again - new line with /mnt$ [06:07] Devon_C: Nothing is supposed to. Type "ls" again, tell me if you see "ipod" [06:07] sorry for the noobish question, where are user installed packages located post installation? like where would the firefox bin be? [06:07] HAHA [06:07] sharddx: yea [06:07] YEEEEAH [06:08] WOOOT [06:08] Devon_C: the command "ls" means list files, i.e., like window "dir" command [06:08] now we're getting somewhere [06:08] anyone know how to turn off the grey background on ircII? [06:08] Devon_C: You should. Then type "sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/ipod" [06:08] Devon_C: /mnt$ is the directory you are in [06:08] /quit/quit === mod is now known as jyg [06:08] yes [06:08] now it says [06:08] "mount: special device /dev/sdc1 does not exist" [06:08] Caleb_: IceWM. Xfce is too slow, I think. I'm a nerdy power-user. [06:08] soreau , last awnser was i have ubuntu 9.04 before i had a nasty disconect [06:09] Devon_C: is your ipod still plugged in? [06:09] sharddx: Ok, sec [06:09] mdg: yes. [06:09] Where do you get that? [06:09] Devon_C: /dev/sdc2, I meant. Sorry. [06:09] isn't it sdc2? [06:09] travissein: /usr/bin [06:09] yeah [06:09] ty [06:09] sharddx: Put the live 9.04 cd in your cdrom drive and then get to Sys>Admin>Software Sources. There, disable all but cdrom and then click update. After that close the window then do 'sudo apt-get install build-essential' [06:09] travissein: usually somewhere under /usr/bin. firefox is in /usr/bin/firefox. Why do you ask? [06:09] IceWM is the dock like thing , i think [06:09] mefached: same thing [06:09] "mount: special device /dev/sdc2 does not exist" [06:10] Caleb_: IceWM is a very, very small window manager. No desktop, no wallpaper, no icons, nothing. Super fast. [06:10] Devon_C: maybe check the /dev directory again [06:10] Devon_C: Is your ipod plugged in? Check the /dev directory. [06:11] what am i looking for in /dev again? === Derander_ is now known as Derander [06:11] Caleb_: It's much faster than Xfce or Fluxbox. [06:11] Devon_C: Your iPod. [06:11] Devon_C: something that says /sdc [06:11] Devon_C: why not go to bed and do this when you're fresher? [06:11] It looks like windows 95.Dont do off topic, im saying what it looks like [06:11] Devon_C: /sdc1 or sdc2 or just /sdc [06:11] mdg: I see sdc but it's a block file thats 0 bytes [06:11] Caleb_: No, after installing icewm-themes, it can look like pretty much anything. Mine looks like OS/2 Warp. [06:12] Ok. [06:12] Devon_C: That's what you want, I believe. Try "sudo mount /dev/sdc /mnt/ipod" [06:12] Devon_C: its odd that the computer thinks your ipod is a camera, but now we can't find anything [06:12] mefached: os2/warp: that's not much of a selling point [06:12] How do we figure out what the device appears as in /dev? [06:12] Is there an online kde/xfce/gnome theme repository? [06:12] losher: It looks like. There are like a hundred different themes. I'm not saying it looks nice. It's just fast. [06:13] mefached: sorry, just teasing. I"m an fvwm man myself... [06:13] Caleb_: For GNOME, google gnome-look. [06:13] Devon_C: "sudo mount /dev/scd /mnt/ipod [06:13] mdg: yeah just did [06:13] I use xfce-dusk [06:13] losher: fvwm is nice too. [06:13] what is the topic? [06:13] ok [06:13] it says mount: /dev/sdc: unkown device [06:13] please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic [06:13] Devon_C: darn! [06:13] unitrix: we give Ubuntu os support here [06:14] if I want an installation cd or dvd which has everything on it [06:14] *smacks face on keyboard* this is starting to irk me [06:14] i.e. no downloads [06:14] like really badly [06:14] where should I look? [06:14] Devon_C: Some hardware gives us big problems. Sorry. [06:14] alright I'm done for tonight [06:14] Sometimes the simplest GUIs are the best, tbh. I like fluxbox, but on good hardware gnome with compiz is fun as well. =p [06:14] agliodbs, remaster a live cd [06:14] thansk guys [06:14] Devon_C: Once you become more familiar with Linux, you'll be able to do it yourself pretty easily. [06:14] really you're all awesome [06:14] Devon_C: Don't worry about it. [06:14] Devon_C: we are close! Don't give up hope [06:14] !remaster > agliodbs [06:14] agliodbs, please see my private message [06:14] MrNfector: I use GNOME with Compiz for gaming and IceWM for everything else. [06:15] Devon_C: after some sleep it will all come together [06:15] bazhang: so there isn't a "has everything" ISO anwhere already built, then. [06:15] to be honest, i have very little idea what I'm doing - I'm really new to all the deep coding and everything [06:15] and yeah [06:15] mdg: i hope [06:15] agliodbs: The basic Ubuntu LiveCD is almost a full CD, I believe. [06:15] goodnight [06:15] agliodbs, , no due to licensing / IP reasons [06:15] Devon_C: Good night. [06:15] agliodbs: it's not really possible, as bugfixes are happening constantly. You can choose not to download anything additional though... [06:15] Devon_C: your computer sees you ipod as a camera - there has to be a way [06:15] Can we watch the kernel messages to watch how the ipod comes up and as what in /dev???? [06:15] can someone recommend a good app to create/edit ISO's and burning? [06:16] vise: same problem with ipod? [06:16] losher: this is for my father-in-law who is on 14.4. dial-up [06:16] IceWM is on my list to try at some point, can't say I've played with it yet. Could be fun. [06:16] Hoss: Brasero with GNOME/Xfce, K3B with KDE. [06:16] downloading *anything* isn't possible [06:16] vise: yes, the dmesg command will show what the devices are named as [06:16] mdg: No i just have a doubt.. How do devices come up in /dev. Whats the rule.. [06:16] agliodbs, then read the message from ubottu [06:16] mefached: That app will do both tasks? [06:16] yeah, looking at it [06:16] hi all i have a newbe problem. i lost my superuser password, and cannot upgrade from ubuntu 8-10 to 9-4. can anyone help ? [06:16] vise: I just use the shortcut and check with "dmesg" [06:16] Hoss: It'll create. Google "edit ISOs ubuntu". [06:17] Cupman: "sudo passwd" [06:17] mefached: What about burning software? [06:17] thanks [06:17] Hoss: Brasero and K3B are perfect for burning anything, ever. Audio, data, ISOs. [06:17] agliodbs: you can install from a latest dvd e.g. 8.04.2 and choose not to download any updates. [06:17] mefached: thanks for your help with devon_C [06:17] mdg: Anytime. That's what I'm here for. [06:17] losher: I'd be fine with that. [06:17] mefached: Thanks a ton, last question. What should I use for ripping dvds? [06:18] mefached: :) [06:18] Hoss: I know K3D does it, and I thin Brasero does as well. [06:18] night all o/ [06:18] Hoss: http://www.doom9.org/ [06:18] losher: dmesg seems to give a lot of output. Do you do dmesg just after the dev plugin and then see the output? [06:18] it's just been my experience that the live cd doesn't have all the applications you want on it [06:18] osiris you here? [06:18] mefached: Right on, I will give Brasero a whirl. Thanks! [06:18] raylu: Thanks, I will check it out. [06:18] agliodbs: The LiveCD is pretty packed for space. Remaster it. [06:18] Hoss: dvd::rip or ogmrip (simpler) [06:19] ziroday: What would you recommend between the two? [06:19] vise: yes, dmesg before & after adding the new device. only the last dozen or so lines are important [06:19] Hoss: what are you planning to do with the rips? Do you need special subtitles or audio tracks? [06:19] vise: "dmesg | tail" is best for displaying only the last bit. you can also use grep to find different devices specifically, if you know part of the name. [06:20] mefached, losher: realistically I don't have time to do the remastering. [06:20] looking at the canonical store now [06:20] agliodbs: Remastering is about the only way. [06:20] MrNfector: ty [06:20] agliodbs: What do you need the LiveCD to do? [06:20] agliodbs: A lot of non-Ubuntu LiveCDs specialize. [06:20] agliodbs, remastering is very speedy. [06:20] ziroday: Nope, no subs or remastering. [06:20] Hoss: then ogmrip sounds perfect, super simple to use really :) [06:21] bazhang: not if you don't have the prerequisites installed ... [06:21] feh [06:21] agliodbs, at any rate, that is the only method. [06:21] agliodbs: what apps are you missing? Latest firefox I'm sure. What else? [06:21] agliodbs: Apt-get takes care of prereqs... [06:21] Canonical Store: out of stock [06:21] ziroday: Does it maintain DVD structure? [06:22] Question: In ubuntu when you make a critical system change it always asks you your password, and with the default appearance makes the screen in the background darker, how do you disable the background from getting darker? Because I am running portable ubuntu in windows on a flashdrive and it slows down the confirmation process. [06:22] losher, all of the codecs [06:22] Hoss: I believe so, but not certain [06:22] bazhang: right... [06:22] ziroday: Okay, thanks! [06:22] Trent0r_: Learn to do whatever it is from a console instead. That's the best way, really. [06:22] hy all [06:22] help me please [06:23] losher: not sure exactly. however, both SuSE and Fedora come on DVDs, so I can't imagine that all of that stuff fits on a CD for ubuntu [06:23] dedet: Ask your question. Don't say "help me please". [06:23] Well, I know the console well, but its easier to go through add/remove programs [06:23] where shell free [06:23] for a few of the apps I want [06:23] hey guys, is there a program similar in ubuntu to Lime wire??? [06:23] dedet, wrong channel [06:23] Trent0r_: The console "apt-get" is much easier. Use "apt-cache search" to find things. [06:23] mefached: is there a way to remove the darker background [06:23] i already have Vuse. [06:23] easily [06:23] TriMe, frostwire [06:23] ta man [06:23] TriMe: LimeWire is Java, isn't it? If not, Frostwire. [06:23] Trime try frostwire [06:23] where shell free??? [06:23] soreau , ok the buid tools are installed [06:23] Trent0r_: one sec, taking a look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/43148 might be helpful [06:23] cheers guys [06:23] dedet, not here. please stop [06:23] Trent0r_: That is not an overhead.. Theres other things that ubuntu does probably making it slow.. [06:24] dedet: No, leave. [06:24] Shardded: Cool, any difference in the 'make' command now? [06:24] still the same errors === Ronald_ is now known as Ronald [06:24] Trent0r_: I doubt it. :/ === Kage_Jittai is now known as Fire_ant_command [06:24] Trent0r_: or tick "disable-grab" in gconf by opening gconf-editor and going to apps/gksu === Fire_ant_command is now known as FireAntCommander [06:25] agliodbs: there is a dvd version for Ubuntu also. which has a bunch of software on it, like the suse & fedora ones [06:25] aha, where do I find it? [06:25] soreau , you head somthing obout headers aswell [06:26] losher: I found one for sale on Amazon, but it's old :-( [06:26] Shardded: I assume 'make' failed again? [06:26] soreau , about* [06:26] <``y7> i switched routers and ubuntu can ping my new router but it cannot ping yahoo.com. all of my other machines (non-ubuntu) can ping yahoo.com after the router switch. i did a sudo /etc/networking/restart and it didn't help. any ideas? [06:26] soreau yes same errors as last time [06:26] agliodbs, losher that still requires codecs etc, which do not come with it [06:26] bazhang: no way round that, I'm afraid... [06:26] Shardded: Yes, try to 'apt-get install linux-generic-headers' not sure if that's the exact name of the package though [06:27] codecs? [06:27] ~codecs [06:27] gziroday: ill try that [06:27] !codecs [06:27] For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [06:27] agliodbs, remastering is the only techhique. [06:27] soreau , thank you ill try it [06:27] i give up; i'm just going to reinstall xubuntu desktop [06:28] bazhang: if that's the case, then he's getting OpenSuse [06:28] agliodbs: actually, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#dvd says that the dvds mostly have language packs on them, which you don't need... [06:28] agliodbs, that requires downloads as well. please take this #ubuntu-offtopic [06:28] agliodbs: nothing wrong with opensuse.... [06:28] travissein: What was your problem? [06:28] <``y7> i switched routers and ubuntu can ping my new router but it cannot ping yahoo.com. all of my other machines (non-ubuntu) can ping yahoo.com after the router switch. i did a sudo /etc/networking/interfaces restart and it didn't help. any ideas? [06:29] ``y7: check /etc/resolv.conf and make sure you got good nameserver(s) in there [06:29] losher: yeah, I wanted to test both though. he has some old hardware, and I'm not sure what it'll work best on [06:29] <``y7> i've got nameservers in there set to the opendns.org ones [06:29] vise: xfce4-panel in xubuntu isn't showing the applications or places menu anymore. the panel is still there, it just only has my shortcuts to firefox, help, and network/volume [06:30] ``y7: also check 'route -n' and make sure your router's ip is your default gateway [06:30] travissein: Is there some right click, n then 'add menu' or something like Gnome? [06:30] anyone ever have trouble with a nic going in and out with ubuntu - server [06:30] it's not there lol [06:30] <``y7> Dulak, the destination is wrong in route -n. how do i fix that? it's correct in sudo joe /etc/network/interfaces [06:30] ``y7: it'll show 0.0.0.0 in the gateway column for your default gateway, the first column on that line should be your router's ip [06:31] vise: it should be called "XFCE Menu" but it's not there === joshthecoder is now known as joshthecoder_afk [06:31] ``y7: you can manually fix it with 'route add default gw router.ip.here' [06:31] Hey Guys, Is there a program that Auto Reads .PDF files in Linux or is there a standalone program? - if so what is it called so i can download. it. Cheers [06:31] agliodbs: if you can get access to a burner with a fast internet connection, you can download & burn countless distros... [06:31] TriMe, evince [06:31] bastidrazor what would you suggest to use, to create a system snapshot before doing a aptitude safe-upgrade. i guess using safe-upgrade is safety already, but in case a rollback is needed. is it possible to rollback packages? how? [06:31] ``y7: pastebin your interfaces file and link me the url to it [06:31] bazhang: Cheers :) [06:31] TriMe: Should come with your distro..?

[07:03] snakdoc, i still dont understand what you mean [07:03] bumpin: sorry not thinking getting late for me in other words. http://ip-address [07:03] ok [07:03] vise: many many many times [07:03] go to that [07:03] I have four entries in my grub for a single install of ubuntu, do I need to keep the extra ones? [07:04] hey does anyone know how to setup multichannel audio [07:04] vise: I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling all of the flash codecs I could find [07:04] lwells, might want to keep one or two, just in case [07:04] vise: Though, I can not find any open source flash codecs [07:04] bumpin where you would say go to google.com put that ip in address bar should load a welcome you got server up page [07:04] i3ear: Il try searching.. Meanwhile, have you tried reinstalling ff too? [07:04] snakdoc: it came up "It Works!" [07:04] The entra one seems to be "Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-11-generic" [07:04] vise: Firefox? No [07:05] bazhang, so I need to keep all four? [07:05] bumpin awesome that means server is running [07:05] lwells, certainly not [07:05] vise: If I do, how should I do this? Uninstall firefox THEN flash, then install firefox THEN flash? [07:05] ok cool [07:05] bumpin: now you need to get wordpress to server [07:05] vise: or does it even matter? [07:05] no static ip? [07:05] snakdoc, should i setup static ip? [07:05] So I can safely remove them from Grub without messing anything up, bazhang? [07:05] lwells, what are the four extras [07:06] bumpin go to server type cd /var/www then wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz [07:06] i3ear: Uninstall firefox, then install firefox and simply update flash from adobe.. thats it.. [07:06] Hi everyone. I'm using Jaunty and I'd like to know if zip is compiled with large file support. [07:06] Anyone know how I can do that? [07:06] when you get ready for port forwarding i would [07:07] vise: Alright I will try that [07:07] bazhang: here http://pastebin.com/d388432a0 [07:07] vise: Then try those fixes I have [07:08] sorry actually 5 entries [07:08] i3ear: I found two links for you..

(ET1602) [07:08] lwells, it's really up to you how many you keep, they don't take up much space though, keeping a minimum of one extra set (which you have now) is better safe than sorry [07:09] bumpin: that should start download let me know when its done [07:09] antix, do you have the live cd on it now? [07:09] bazhang: the second set is an older kernal version right? [07:09] am i supposed to be d/ling from the server? [07:09] lwells, yes [07:09] Why does my Ubuntu computer have 2 generic SCSI device nodes although I have got only one hard disk? Is the second used for my CD-ROM drive? [07:09] snakdoc, am i suppossed to be d/ling from the server? [07:10] or my lap, which im talkin to you on now [07:10] If I boot into the older kernal version, would everything still be set up the same, bazhang? [07:10] bumpin run commands i posted [07:10] vise: No I have not, I will try them [07:10] bazhang: no, I'm thinking of buying one but I can't find anything on google confirming it works. just a lot of issues in the past.. do you know anything about it? [07:10] bumpin go to server type cd /var/www then wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz [07:10] New install won't boot!?! [07:10] antix, let me do a quick search [07:10] bullgard4: yes, one for each scsi emulated device... [07:11] vise: but when I go to uninstall firefox, I get the "Use the Synaptic Packet Manager" thing [07:11] I mean all the same installed programs and setting, that I have on the other version, bazhang [07:11] vise: What? [07:11] Curious if anyone else has been having issues playing flash video's in Ubuntu Firefox lately. [07:11] i3ear: Use the package manager.. how are you trying btw? [07:12] vince_, Er, mate, have you updated the flash player and/or the browser? [07:12] Does anyone have information about Samba failing to share files? I 'm trying to share a drive I have mounted at /media/SMALL and it's not working. [07:12] vise: Sorry, I am a complete ubuntu noob here, I am simply using the "Add/Remove Application" [07:12] im using inadyn to automatically update my dyndns ip address. I just got blocked by dyndns for updating too often (every 6 seconds) how can i configure inadyn to trigger only when the ppp0 interface is established? Im on dialup [07:13] snakdoc, permission denied [07:13] i3ear: Just a min [07:13] vise: wait, hahaha nevermind I just found it poking around [07:13] * justin_ waves [07:13] YankDownUnder : Not recently, though it may have slipped in under one of the large set of updates from the update manager. [07:14] * Striking7 waves at justin_ [07:14] vince_, If anything, you might want to "by hand" update the flashlpayer - just for giggles and grins [07:14] Hello - what could cause a Jaunty machine to lose its route to the local Ubuntu Server running Samba until I add an entry for the server in the /etc/hosts file? It worked for weeks beforehand... [07:14] Once Ubuntu is installed, I cannot change the file system any more? [07:14] Hello Striking7: This is my very first time here [07:14] bumpin sry sudo wget http://wordpress.org/latest.tar.gz [07:14] antix, from the Phoronix website review, it seems the main issue with eeetop is having to do some serious tweaking to get the touch screen to work [07:14] justin_: welcome. Need help with something? [07:15] Striking7: No. Just saying a friendly hello. But thank you! [07:15] YankDownUnder : I was afraid of that. I was hoping it was something obvious as it was working fine a day or so ago with no issues. I [07:15] I hear ext4 works better [07:15] I have created an ssh key for remote logins, but I am unable to login. It works for the root user, but it doesn't work for another user on my machine, any ideas? thanks. [07:15] bazhang: I found that this might be resolved in the fix for defect 350001 on launchpad [07:15] ve been having all kinds of issues lately with things just BREAKING for no reason then starting to work agian [07:15] justin_: haha. Awesome. Well I'm not here too often, but I've been around a bit. Good to have you. Been using Ubuntu long? [07:16] snakdoc, download finished [07:16] Hey there Unbuntu fans! [07:16] vince_, Didja set yer stuff up to automagically update/upgrade? - as well mate, you can always experiement by creating a new user account, logging into that account and testing to see if it works under that account - sounds like kinda a kludge, but it tells you then if it's something in the profile (yours) or something with the system...know what I mean? [07:16] Striking7: I've been using Ubuntu as my sole OS for the past 6 months, but the only thing I ever did with it was surf the internet or chat on pidgin [07:16] bazhang: and they seem to have tested with 8.10. it would be interesting to see a more recent test with 9.04 [07:16] Now I'm trying to learn how to do all kinds of things. Starting with this [07:16] Ubuntu? Dang...and here I thought this was the Win7 channel... [07:16] bumpin: sudo tar xvfz latest.tar.gz [07:17] how can i trigger an event when an interface comes up? Ie when ppp0 is established when i dialup to the internet [07:17] snakdoc, done [07:17] justin_: nice. I've used lots of operating systems and I have to say Linux in general really gives you a ton of freedom to do whatever you want to take the time to learn. [07:17] justin_: Sky's the limit man. Enjoy. Experiment. [07:18] does the new grub in jaunty, does not play on GPT drive on a PC, when it is not being installed on the MBR (and on the specific ubuntu partition)? [07:18] bumpin: ls tell me what it says back [07:18] Striking7: Couldn't have said it better myself! [07:18] *play well [07:18] I absolutely love this OS! [07:18] its back to admin@admin:/var/www$ [07:18] * YankDownUnder using linux since '94 => customise/utilise/live = one good philosophy [07:19] bumpin type "ls" [07:19] snakdoc: its back to admin@admin:/var/www$ [07:19] is there any way to get the normal text based startup and shutdown in ubuntu? [07:19] Does anyone have information about Samba failing to share files? I 'm trying to share a drive I have mounted at /media/SMALL and it's not working. [07:19] snakdoc: it says -bash: is: command not found [07:20] ls, not is [07:20] thas L [07:20] like list [07:20] lol thanks justin_ [07:20] wildc4rd, Change the settings in grub => /boot/grub/menu.lst => add "textonly" or remove the bit that says "silent" [07:20] I am running Ubuntu on my gimpy P4 and I am wanting to buy a fancy new Mini-ITX machine. Is there a hardware compatibility list to work from when selecting my mobo and video card? [07:21] No problem. [07:21] greensimian, Nah mate. [07:21] snakdoc: its says index.html latest.tar.gz wordpress [07:21] !hcl | greensimian [07:21] greensimian: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [07:21] Thanks! [07:21] YankDownUnder, sure there is. [07:21] That is just what I was looking for! [07:21] !vimtutor [07:21] vimtutor is an excellent tool for learning how to use vim. It can be found in the vim-full package, among others. [07:21] bazhang, Yeah, but how many times you met up with a bit that didn't work under a new kernel? [07:21] bumpin go ahead and rm latest.tar.gz then cd wordpress [07:21] Is there a way to move my profile, settings, and files to a new Unbuntu machine? [07:22] I spending quite a while getting pigeon working and I would like to avoid doing it again. [07:23] greensimian: you might want to copy your entire /home/user directory [07:23] (including all the .bla-folders) [07:23] greensimian, Just as an FYI, ya know, aMSN is heaps cooler...but that also depends on what yer doin... [07:23] bumpin you are now to Using the MySQL Client on http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Detailed_Instructions [07:23] YankDownUnder, please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic thanks [07:23] i dont think it worked [07:23] aMSN? [07:23] greensimian, you can clone it [07:23] bumpin you get error ? [07:23] losher: But I have a /dev/sr0 file too. This is no soft link. So please explain why there are coexisting /dev/sg0, /dev/sg1 and /dev/sr0 side by side? [07:23] !clone | greensimian [07:23] greensimian: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « aptitude --display-format '%p' search '?installed!?automatic' > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo xargs aptitude --schedule-only install < my-packages ; sudo aptitude install » - See also !automate [07:24] snazzy! [07:24] Hmmm...my only issue (so to speak) with pidgin is the lack of support for emoticons. But I read that this is a work in progress or that it has something to do with gifs not being supported or something. [07:24] greensimian, but what Machtin said about backing up home will work as well [07:24] Dude, I have 7 IM accounts, 2 IRC accounts and it works like a champ [07:24] bullgard4: sorry, I haven't the faintest idea.... [07:24] Yankdownunder, where do I add the textonly line in the file? [07:24] snakdoc: after i typed rm latest.tar.gz is said rm: remove write-protected regular file 'latest.tar.gz'? and i typed cd wordpress and it went back to admin@admin:/var/www$ [07:25] All those AOL accounts from back in the day that I abandoned cause AOL SUX on Windows are back :P [07:25] losher: Thank you for commenting. [07:25] bumpin so sorry i keep forgetting [07:25] Thanks!~ [07:25] bumpin sudo rm /var/www/latest.tar.gz [07:25] wildc4rd, If you read through the info in the beginning of the "menu.lst" you'll see what I mean - otherwise, remove the "silent" bit at the end of the kernel boot towards the bottom of the file [07:26] Thanks for all the help gang! [07:26] Have a great evening/morning! [07:26] hey [07:26] Peace greensimian [07:26] snakdoc, i typed that in and nothing happened [07:26] yo [07:26] You too, greensimian! [07:26] payne, Gday [07:26] how do you configure 5.1 sound systems [07:26] in linux [07:27] payne, Hang on - I have the URL... [07:27] bumpin if it went to next line thats fine just removing compressed install file [07:27] bullgard4: does this help: http://www.redhat.com/archives/rhl-list/2004-May/msg01725.html [07:27] k [07:27] snakdoc, oh ok [07:27] bumpin you need to run the mysql install setup under mysql client has example http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Detailed_Instructions [07:28] payne, http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/06/enable-sound-in-ubuntu-linux.html [07:28] YankDownUnder, thanks [07:28] not found [07:28] payne, This allows you to have true 5.1 (or better) [07:28] im guessing it removed it [07:28] YankDownUnder, page not found [07:28] payne, Hang on...checking [07:28] thanks for all your help snakdoc, i appreciate it greatly [07:28] Yankdownunder shows here as quiet, could that be it? === mike is now known as Guest24335 [07:29] wildc4rd, remove quiet and splash [07:29] wildc4rd, Yeah. Remove [07:29] bumpin: once database is created run setup for wordpress at http://ip-address/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php [07:29] YankDownUnder, how did you configure your sound [07:29] bumpin not a problem let me know if you run into any trouble i be around for a little longer [07:29] looking for info or a howto with iptables? am i in the right channel?

[07:31] payne, better would be to install pavucontrol [07:31] Need some help with iptables in ubuntu 8.10. I need to know how I can at will block and upblock ip addresses. [07:32] snakdoc, so wait, did that install cpanel? [07:32] Oh. So does anyone know what the current status is as far as whether ATI or Nvidia is best when being used with Linux? [07:32] k [07:32] bumpin no go down to manual install [07:32] justin_, Opinions, or struth? [07:32] bazhang, thanks [07:33] YankDownUnder: The struth [07:33] bumpin you can install phpmyadmin for mysql gui if you like its a one time setup and you done [07:33] I'm thinking about buying a new Desktop, so I'm considering what to buy. [07:33] justin_, From a tech standpoint, NV has always delivered. Hardware and software. [07:33] snakdoc, im not sure what to do [07:33] ive used cpanel before, but i never set cpanel up before [07:34] bumpin scroll down below cpanel stuff [07:34] bumpin search this line "mysql -u adminusername -p [07:34] " [07:35] on the server? [07:35] nevermind i see it [07:35] duhh [07:35] The reason why I ask this is because I go the following response when inquiring about a purchase: "We used to have nVidia cards available for our Desktops. However, after running some benchmarking tests on a number of ATI cards, we came to the conclusion that ATI was producing much better performance than similarly priced nVidia cards. We also found that the ATI Catalyst configuration tool was superior to the nVidia Settings configuration too [07:35] justin_: I've had good luck with my NV stuff. Back in 2005 ATI was a serious pain but I hear that's been dramatically improved since [07:35] bumpin no in web page i sent has that line [07:36] Wondered if there was any truth to that statement. [07:36] I'd not be so sure about those stats...be wonderin who paid for 'em... [07:37] however, that being the case, I've consistently had success and performance with selling NV based systems... [07:37] It's a statement from the System76 people. [07:37] justin_: my first few linux boxes had ATI stuff and the drivers didn't support a lot of the power the hardware supported. I've had one machine with Intel graphics and it had a few widescreen resolution issues. [07:37] hey when I type alsamixer in terminal it says nothing where the chip is sposed to be ?????????? [07:37] justin_: the Intel was easier to deal with than the ATI, and the Nvidia has been easier to deal with than both others. [07:37] I was asking howcome none of their Desktops came with Nvidia cards and only ATI. [07:37] I see === sn00pz is now known as sn00py [07:37] snakdoc, i wonder why it didnt ask for mysql password [07:38] bumpin did you setup one on install [07:38] snakdoc, i sure did [07:38] How do I check which process is using the sound card? I forgot the command.. lsof? [07:38] I'm running on an old ATI card now, but it has issues... [07:39] bumpin type mysql -u root -p [07:39] ok wait, i didnt type in the 1st command properly [07:39] hey guys i stuffed up FGT Wine.. [07:39] justin_: how old? Able to use the open source ATI drivers with it, or are you using the binary ones? [07:39] can anyone tell me where the install goes. [07:39] bumpin that should ask you for pass that page you can't copy 100% have to make changes that you want for your system [07:39] and hows to remove it 110% [07:39] using the proprietary ones. And old as in, I'm running a Pentium 4 machine === faizi_20m is now known as hii [07:40] I wanted to create that cube effect that I've been seeing. But when I enable the special effects and all, I only get two desktops instead of the usual four. [07:41] Kind of hard to create a cube with only two sides, you know? lol [07:41] mmm do tou need help? [07:41] where can I find someone that understands iptables and can help me write a script for it. [07:41] justin_: you need to increase your desktop size to four in ccsm [07:41] justin_, Er...have you installed fusion and all the other bits and bobs? [07:41] how can i take a screenshot? [07:41] stamp r sist [07:41] collimic: just explain your issue, if you're not using ubuntu then you need to ask in ##linux [07:41] ziroday: The maximum size available in the options was only 2 for some reason when I did that. [07:41] on you keyboard [07:42] YankDownUnder: I believe so. [07:42] BellinXFelon-> prt scr [07:42] quibbler : and then paste? [07:42] Later on, my entire desktop just froze up. So I turned all of the effects back off since then. [07:42] justin_: open ccsm > general options > desktop size > Horizontal Virtual Size > Slide it along to four [07:42] snakdoc, i never setup a mysql username [07:43] YankDownUnder: compiz(-fusion) is installed by default :) [07:43] snakdoc, it only asked me to set a pass [07:43] it is ubuntu 8.10 I need to know how I can add and remove ip entries from the iptables at will. I just started a small wifi probider and I need to be able to block people by ip address. [07:43] does network manager bypass anything? I've got an openvpn tunnel setup, and it's connected. but it doesn't show up in either route or ifconfig ... what's up with that? [07:43] justin_: know what ccsm is? [07:43] BellinXFelon-> just press the prt scr key and save the image where you want [07:43] lets say I have a client with an ip of 10.1.1.4 and they need blocked today and maybe tomarrow I need to unblock them. [07:43] yes. The compiz configuration manager thing. [07:43] !iptables | collimic I strongly recommend you take a read through [07:43] collimic I strongly recommend you take a read through: 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 [07:44] will the MID and netbook remix work on a windows XP pc running virtualbox? [07:44] I am not using a GUI only command line. [07:44] justin_: K, just making sure. I always hated it when people threw acronyms that meant nothing at me. [07:44] Archades: netbook probably, not sure about MID (but I doubt it) [07:44] collimic: then see the second link [07:44] damn, theres a KVM version of mid apparently, it's got a .kvm script thingie, and a .qcow2. any idea if i can run that from virtualbox? [07:45] I have read that page many times I guess I just do not understand iptables enought to understand what I am reading. [07:45] bumpin: the root is default [07:46] How do I check which process is using the sound card? I forgot the command.. lsof? I need to kill the process currently using the sound card [07:46] ziroday, Didja get all the extra bits and bobs? Oh, by the way, on gnome-look.org some folks have posted their configs for compiz so that you can just d/l them and start with that...just FYI mate [07:46] is it possible to run a 32bit os on a 64bit processor? [07:47] death_: top will show services [07:47] collimic: well you do iptables -A -s -j [07:47] stickboy: yes [07:47] SnakDoc: I know that but I dont know which one is using sound [07:47] YankDownUnder: ooh neat didn't realise that, thanks! [07:47] stickboy: just can't do other way around [07:47] what is your opinion about pakistan [07:47] what is your opinion about pakistan [07:47] I was running exaile, and then my sound started looping over and over again.. it didnt stop after I killed exaile [07:47] ok ty SnakDoc [07:47] hii: not here [07:48] !social [07:48] why???? [07:48] Sorry, I don't know anything about social [07:48] !offtopic [07:48] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [07:48] On a smiliar note to stickboys question... does Ubuntu have a ram cap like 32bit linux? [07:48] death_: not sure about that then [07:48] thanks [07:48] SirMoo: yes, unless you use the -server kernel [07:48] :/ [07:48] hi people, someone who uses rhythmbox? [07:48] death_: sorry i not much help with that [07:49] question, why cant i start cron .. when i do /etc/init.d/cron start i get this error ... Starting periodic command scheduler: crond failed! [07:49] SnakDoc: np :) [07:49] am i doing something wrong ? [07:49] Also. Server ubuntu is strictly command line, righT? [07:49] SirMoo: 32bit operating systems have a 4gb memory limt [07:49] *limit [07:49] snakdoc, whats my hostname? [07:49] If you want more than 4gb you want a 64bit OS [07:49] 3 gig limit fyi [07:49] So it's 32bit in general, not just windows? [07:49] SirMoo, server starts out as command line, but you can add a gui to it [07:49] death_: maybe google have something [07:49] vvpalin_: Fat fingered my keyboard. Thanks for the correction. [07:50] np [07:50] ziroday if I give you and IP that might need blocked and you give me the command to block it and then the command to unblock it? [07:50] SirMoo, it's the limitations of 32bit, it's not os specific [07:50] bumpin its what you have to right of @ think i seen it as admin [07:50] SirMoo: tenach: PAE allows to get upto 64 GB in any os.. [07:50] Because I bought 4 gigs for my Windows and was pissed to learn it only gave me 3.25 D= [07:50] SnakDoc: trying that already.. just looking for a solution (other than reboot) fast before I go insane.. this sound wont stop looping and I cant mute it [07:50] collimic: err okay [07:50] vise: PAE? [07:50] oh ok [07:50] Physical Address Extension.. I dont know about Ubuntu. but theres an option in the bootloader for windows.. /PAE [07:50] sirmoo what windows os do you have that only sees 3.25 [07:51] Its a processor facility [07:51] death_: i know thats not funny but made me laugh i take a look see what i can find [07:51] SnakDoc: hehe [07:51] whoa. Got stuck in another desktop for a while there... [07:51] collimic, XP 32bit I'm guessing. It's missing some due to I think the graphics card is 500 something. [07:52] is graphisc card on coard [07:52] board that is [07:52] Shared memory integrated card? [07:52] Well, there is a built on one, but I added another?

I'm using nut/upsmon to monitor my UPS which is connected over serial port. Since I really want to have ttyS0 free for use, I now plugged the UPS to the ttyS1 port. I also did change the port in the ups.conf file. After restarting everything worked. However, now that I changed the serial port, upsmon does not work after suspend (which worked when the ups was on ttyS0). As a workaround I added a script to /etc/pm/sleep.d to restart upsmon.

Flash won't work, etc etc etc [09:09] n2diy: Yep, I've checked all sliders, and toggled them all off then back on as well just to be sure. The only thing I get is a bit of a ticking when I run the master slider up and down [09:10] anders^^: eth0 is not getting an ip address. [09:10] anders^^: It did get IPv6 [09:10] n2diy: Ive tries youtube, slacker, and local files, and dont get anything.

[09:10] Yes, I did anders^^ [09:11] anders^^: http://pastebin.com/m53045276 > /etc/network/interfaces [09:11] mrroboto_: have you installed Audacity? [09:11] n2diy: as a matter of fact, I just did that a few minutes ago while browsing the package manager === sean is now known as Guest29408 [09:11] n2diy: I have not, might it help me with my problem? [09:11] earthmeLon: you could try explicitly setting two listen lines in sshd_config for the ips instead of listening on 0.0.0.0 [09:11] Hey guys. I get this error while trying to build desmume(to check if there is any difference from the one in the reps): configure: error: glib-2.0 >= 2.8 is required to build desmume gtk frontend. Shouldnt that come with apt-get upgrade? [09:12] raylu: Okay [09:12] Promille: not necessarily [09:12] raylu: I can't ping the second NIC anymore [09:12] Promille: the latest version in the ubuntu repos has nothing to do with the version needed by some software out of the repos [09:13] raylu: ok, but i cant find it in the reps either.. where can i find it then? [09:13] H'irssi, yes, install Audacity, and you, and mrroboto_ can use that to trouble shoot your sound. [09:13] okay :o [09:13] Promille: it might be in there. make sure you're installing the -dev package [09:14] n2diy: update.... It seems I AM getting sound, but it is playing through my headphones (Connected to a PCI soundcard) and not the onboard (connected to speakers) [09:14] raylu: allright, i will look some more, thanks [09:14] n2diy: I hadnt even considered that, as last I checked my pci sound card wasnt compatible yet [09:14] raylu: so the search-word in synaptic should be "glib-2.8" ? [09:15] raylu: Adding both IP addies did not help [09:15] mrroboto_: check your bios settings, your onboard sound could be off? [09:16] n2diy: I suppose I need to switch the default, as I only use these headphones for gaming, which I boot to windows for. Its enabled in the BIOS, i frequently switch between the cards in windows [09:16] earthmeLon: :( [09:16] mrroboto_: or, and a lot easier, just plup your speakes into the jack that your headphones work with. [09:17] n2diy: I can see the device listed if I "aplay -l" [09:17] n2diy: no can do, its a proprietary interface. The card and headphones are a matched pair, its like a DVI port === Guest95827 is now known as Husaini [09:18] anyone know how to find the FS type for a disk without it being mounted [09:18] i cant mount w/o fs type [09:18] ecolitan: sudo fdisk -l (that's an L) [09:18] mrroboto_: what!???, audio is audio, are you saying it is encrypted??? [09:19] any luck setting up OO email mailmerge in Jaunty? [09:19] n2diy: not encrypted, but this card doesnt use an audio jack. (http://jaxboo.com/wp-content/gallery/razer-barracuda-ac1-sound-card/razer_barracuda_ac1_sound_card1.jpg) [09:20] mrroboto_: ok, so the hardware doesn't interface. [09:20] n2diy: right, hence why I keep the speakers hooked up to the normal realtek onboard =/ [09:20] raylu: My eth0 seems to be very messed up. You see anything wrong with this: http://pastebin.com/m1a2f5456 [09:21] n2diy: If I can convince ubuntu to use the onboard card instead, I think ill be in business [09:21] Flannel: fdisk -l doesnt return FS type [09:21] ecolitan: under "id" [09:21] ecolitan: It doesn't mount if you don't specify -t? [09:21] mrroboto_: ok, not sure what to suggest? Could the two sound devices- be conflicting? [09:21] ecolitan: oh, and "system" [09:21] Flannel: the number? [09:21] what is a decent video editor? [09:22] kdenlive is pretty good [09:22] earthmeLon: looks fine to me [09:22] earthmeLon: i'd recommend killing network manager, though === Kristof_D|AFK is now known as Kristof_D [09:22] ecolitan: from mount man page: If no -t option is given, or if the auto type is specified, mount will try to guess the desired type. [09:22] n2diy: potentially, but I've hit the ceiling of what I know about linux audio setup. Most of what Ive done so far was based on a howto [09:22] I have never had good luck with network manager, I switched to wicd last year and have never looked back [09:23] raylu: ps -e | grep net doesnt give me anything [09:23] n2diy: Is there any sort of "device manager" sort of thing available on ubuntu? I could just disable to PCI card... [09:23] mrroboto_: have you tried sudo asoundconf list, then sudo asoundconf set-default-card CARDNAME ? [09:23] earthmeLon: invoke-rc.d NetworkManager status [09:23] mrroboto_: Fine business, and I hit the same ceilitng. Wait. [09:24] H`irssi: That sounds like it might be a winner, lemme give it a shot (WHOA, typo almost went bad) [09:24] :D [09:24] lol [09:24] Jesus. I still get the error message but i cant find it in the reps... configure: error: gtk-2.0 >= 2.6 is required to build desmume gtk frontend [09:24] mrroboto_: You could disable the card in bios, I think. [09:25] hi all [09:25] i have installed ubuntu server 9.04 on a machine with 2 NICs [09:25] i configured 1 NIC [09:25] at install [09:26] then i went into /etc/network/interfaces and configured the other [09:26] but apparently it's the CARD that is not recognized === desti_T2 is now known as desti [09:26] system says that there is no eth1 interface [09:27] how do i know if the system at least is seeing the card? [09:27] Polysics: ifconfig [09:27] anyone seen an app in ubuntu for running car navigation with a usb GPS reciever? [09:27] Archades: Xastir [09:27] n2diy, ifconfi -a only shows lo and eth0 [09:28] ty [09:28] Polysics: lspci [09:28] lvlefisto, what am i looking for in lspci? [09:28] ok, only 1 ethernet controller shows up [09:28] Polysics: ifconfig eth1? [09:29] Polysics: ifconfig lshw [09:29] Polysics: forget that, just lshw === ce_metal_cord is now known as cee_alone === cee_alone is now known as ce_alonee [09:30] Is there any way to make the terminal in Jaunty, rerun a command when it finishes? [09:30] Either with any app or something [09:30] something does show up in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules though, there are 2 interfaces [09:30] hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii' [09:30] Polysics: ifconfig -a [09:30] Hi there. I have no sound when I start xephyr but my user has audio privileges and is part of all the pulse-audio groups. what else can I do_ please [09:30] popup onscreen keyboard for touchscreen application? [09:30] wbc: command1; command2 [09:30] ifconfig -a doesn't report eth1 [09:31] Flannel: cheers! finally got it mounted:) was trying to mount the whole disk instead of the partition with the fs [09:31] raylu, In my case I want to rerun the same command "forever", is that possible? [09:31] for loop bash scripting wbc [09:31] http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/bash-for-loop/ wbc [09:31] Ok, to ask my question like this then. When will be the apt-get install command to upgrade from gtk+2.0 to 2.6 ? [09:31] wbc: while true; do [09:31] wbc: command [09:31] the second card is not even in lshw [09:31] wbc: done [09:32] Guys is there a Hard Way i am Uninstall Wine??? [09:32] Anyone usccesfull installed prelude-ids from source? [09:32] wbc: (yes, bash is weird) [09:32] raylu > all [09:32] !wine > TriMe [09:32] TriMe, please see my private message [09:32] how can 3 hard drives break into a week? bad cable? drivas were about 10years old [09:32] felix_: hardware dies [09:32] wbc: i think with the liberal application of semicolons, you can shorten that to one line [09:32] apparently, only the original installation process found that card [09:32] how odd [09:32] ikonia, yeah but the same week? [09:32] hlooo [09:33] felix_: yes, a power surge/temperature/anything can cause it [09:33] raylu, lets say i want command "testcommand" to be looped, how may I do so [09:33] Promille: again, make sure you've got the dev package [09:33] Promille: what are you compiling again? [09:33] raylu: yeah but i cant find the dev packages. im compiling desmume gtk frontend [09:34] wbc: while true; do testcommand; done [09:34] raylu, Got it working, thanks a lot! [09:35] Promille: i think you want to install libgtk2.0-dev [09:35] mrroboto_: how did those commands work for you ? [09:35] ok, i'd say the card isn't working/recognized/whatever [09:35] there are no other Ethernet devices in dmesg either [09:35] raylu: thanks, but the program asks for gtk2.6, thats the problem [09:35] Promille: you already have that package installed? [09:36] H`irssi: Nothing seemed to change, is a re-log in order? [09:36] I do not think so [09:36] sorry :( [09:36] bai [09:36] can you recommend me some web browsers except firefox? [09:36] !browsers | giorgos_ [09:36] giorgos_: Browsers available for Ubuntu: Firefox (GTK, Gecko engine), Konqueror (KDE/Qt, KHTML engine), Epiphany (GTK, Gecko engine), Dillo (GTK), w3m (terminal-based), Links2 (terminal-based or graphical, see !man page), edbrowse (command-line), Opera (Qt, proprietary) [09:36] giorgos: opera === lvlefisto is now known as bias [09:37] Promille: there's no such thing [09:37] Promille: http://www.gtk.org/ [09:37] raylu: ah allright, found the dev now :) thanks, i think i was just missing the -dev as you said :) [09:37] i basically need to make the original hardware detection re-run [09:37] wbc:i need something open source... [09:37] is there a way to prompt re-recognition of networking hw? [09:38] Polysics: modules are loaded at boot-time as needed [09:38] giorgos: konq [09:38] i can try a reboot, but i don't think it is going to change much [09:38] giorgos_: firefox fits that criterea [09:38] Polysics: of course not [09:39] raylu:too slow ...need something faster...the only reason i use it is firebug [09:39] Polysics: lspci | grep -i net [09:39] ... [09:39] Polysics: i assume you've poked around here already, though [09:39] giorgos_: firefox is too... slow? [09:39] raylu:yes [09:39] raylu, i see a single controller [09:39] comparing with opera [09:40] nikolam: I have downloaded pidgin from getdeb.net [09:40] ubuntu server comes with no window manager correct? [09:40] nikolam: but the install is not working [09:40] i'm using pidgin as well [09:41] nikolam: see http://i39.tinypic.com/2zssktj.png [09:41] dpkg -i [09:41] make sure you're root [09:41] d0htem: Thats correct, the server instalation is a command line only system by default [09:41] DJones: thx [09:42] giorgos_: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Content.notify.interval http://kb.mozillazine.org/Content.notify.backoffcount [09:42] nikolam: the install tab is not showing [09:42] i was hoping one of you experts can help me out here, i have a ubuntu webserver that was left here with out any info about users or passwords. i am now on the LIVE cd and want to reset the password, or create a new administrative user. i am a windows man and know hardly a thing about ubuntu. can some one guide me step by step on what needs done ? [09:43] anybody know how to format FDD? [09:43] hi is there a language translating software for ubuntu? [09:43] :Р FDD [09:44] ugupta, try to restart [09:45] zax1: do you know how to mount the ubuntu partition? [09:45] no [09:45] zax1: sudo parted -l [09:45] 1 l [09:45] noMaster: why used floppy? [09:45] ugupta, I am using wicd manager on my laptop, anyway [09:45] was that a one or an 'L' [09:45] zax1: an L [09:46] k, at the welcome bit now, and awaiting further input [09:46] vegombrei: what language do you want it in? [09:46] zax1: uh, what? [09:46] to hermitmode I need reburn my bios, and my floppy disk is not formated in Win. How can I do it for ubuntu? [09:46] !prefix | zax1 [09:46] zax1: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [09:47] raylu: Everytime I restart my laptop, eth0 is not listed in ifconfig's output. When I do sudo ifconfig eth0 up, it appears, but without ipv4 IP and isn't actually connected. [09:47] Hoss: Restarted already? [09:47] earthmeLon: sudo invoke-rc.d networking restart [09:48] earthmeLon: might shed some light on the situation [09:48] raylu: ok, clicked on print i think the one i need is partition 1 [09:48] zax1: um... it sounds like you got a parted prompt or the gparted ui, which you weren't supposed to [09:48] zax1: sudo parted -l [09:48] i run it from terminal [09:49] zax1: you might have typo-ed it, then [09:49] zax1: parted -l should just list drives/partitions and exit [09:49] raylu: thats what i ran, will try again [09:49] I need a script that take backups of the mysql database each 10 days once [09:49] zax1: anyway, if you're confident it's /dev/sda1, [09:49] zax1: sudo mkdir /mnt/sda1 [09:49] raylu: That just says it's reconfiguring the network and says okay. Sometimes it says it skips the other nic (wlan0, the one that *IS* working) [09:49] zax1: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 === tim_ranger is now known as tim_1 === demetris is now known as ntemis [09:50] earthmeLon: did you configure eth0 with network manager? [09:50] raylu: what is free bsd? i found a software but it says its for linux under freebsd [09:50] I can't Dulak. It says it's managed, even when I remove my entry from /etc/network/interfaces [09:50] Dulak: 03:09:32 earthmeLon> anders^^: http://pastebin.com/m53045276 > /etc/network/interfaces [09:50] raylu: parted said -l is invalid, but i do now have partition list, i think partition 1 is the one i need [09:51] would that then be sda1 ? [09:51] zax1: yes, if no other drives are listed [09:51] HELLO [09:51] netmask is 255.255.0.0 raylu Dulak [09:51] raylu: there are 3 drive listed [09:51] vegombrei: it's another unix variant... linux under freebsd? what? [09:52] zax1: oh. "sudo fdisk -l" may be more appropriate, then [09:52] hi all :) [09:53] I'm not sure, but i've found a bug in the help center of ubuntu [09:53] earthmeLon: add a line right above that "auto eth0" [09:53] raylu: yes that output is far closer , by the way, on sdb1 the file system is called EFI GPT , is that an encripted system ? [09:54] Dulak: ah, good catch [09:54] Dulak: http://pastebin.com/m1a2f5456 is a more recent version of earthmeLon's interfaces, i think [09:54] Dulak: Thank you. I can now ping my laptop but I still cannot connect to sshd < raylu [09:54] raylu: Yeah, I hate network manager so much. NEver works right for me. [09:54] nik [09:54] zax1: i'm actually not sure. "gksu gparted" is a graphical equivalent that might give more details [09:55] earthmeLon: ok, is sshd running? [09:55] earthmeLon: ps aux | grep sshd [09:55] ? [09:55] ? [09:55] ? [09:55] user_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [09:55] nikolam: well this might look quite stupid but the problem was due to not uninstalling the previous version completely... [09:55] hi [09:55] Dulak: I can connect to my server over wlan0, but not eth0. I have 0.0.0.0 AND both ip addresses in sshd_config [09:56] nikolam: well this might look quite stupid but the problem was due to not uninstalling the previous version completely... [09:56] zax1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table it seems to be a partition table, not a file system [09:56] I would like to add a console option in nautilus [09:56] to open console with path of nautilus [09:56] is it possible? [09:56] earthmeLon: ok but we need to troubleshoot it from the beginning, so make sure sshd is actually running: "ps aux | grep sshd" should show some output [09:57] slightly offtopic.. but is it possible for me to rerelease my software as closed source? its open source now under lgpl and im the only owner... [09:57] farciarz84: no, but you can open nautilus with any path from the console :D [09:57] root 7216 0.0 0.0 48912 1240 ? Ss 03:53 0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd < Dulak [09:57] nikolam: but prev problme is there...pidgin rely on NM for connection and NM doesn't detect ppp connection and I am using USB modem(wvdial) [09:57] hey, do you know some stuff like Dropbox? i'd like to share some files, like dropping 'em to virtual directory [09:57] vise: yes, but previous versions maintain lgpl... i think. IANAL, but #ubuntu-dev and #ubuntu-motu are more likely to be helpful [09:57] s/but/and/ [09:58] tim_ranger: share between what? [09:58] farciarz84: sudo apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal [09:58] raylu: through internet [09:58] earthmeLon: Ok, on that machine, can you ssh to localhost ok? [09:58] tim_ranger: ... yes, but between what kind of machines? [09:59] earthmeLon: "ssh localhost" should prompt you for your password and let you login [09:59] Dulak: Yes, I can. I can also connect over wlan0. I cannot connect over eth0 [09:59] raylu: So if vise-0.0.2 is open source, i can make entire vise-0.0.3 closed? keeping 0.0.2 still available? [09:59] earthMelon: you can ping both ways? from this machine and to it from another? [09:59] raylu: ouch, table pc, i guess.... i'm a simpleton, though :P [09:59] Indeed, Dulak [09:59] vise: yes... i think. again, i'd ask in those two channels [10:00] earthmeLon: that's just weird then, if ping works, ssh should too. You using any type of firewall on that machine? [10:00] tim_ranger: i'm more concerned about the OS than whether your screen can swivel [10:00] ugupta, i used usb modem for 2 years with sudo pon and sudo poff for ppp connection [10:00] raylu: oops.. i thot 'IANAL' is another user and that was meant for them.. he he.. [10:00] Not that I am aware, Dulak, and iptables is all commented out/no entries [10:00] hello [10:00] vise: heh [10:00] I installed awn but how do I get the icons for the apps currently running to appear along the bottom? [10:01] Can sshd only run over one nic? That doesn't make sense if you can have it on multiple IP's [10:01] ugupta, and pppconfig for making ppp connection [10:01] earthmeLon: just in case... sudo iptables -L [10:01] Grrr... my auto-connect script for wpa_supplicant, ubuntu hates BASH I guess until it is at login prompt [10:01] raylu: thanks its succesfully mounted [10:01] raylu: you know i was hoping to find some sofware - may be *.py for nautilus - to upload and give links/or see, what's uploaded - from other computer [10:01] zax1: at /mnt/sdb1? "sudo chroot /mnt/sdb1" [10:01] zax1: from there, you can "sudo passwd" to change root's password [10:01] sudo iptables -L > http://pastebin.com/m1be6f368 raylu [10:02] raylu: my os is ubuntu 9.04 [10:02] tim_ranger: yes, but what OS are your two machines running? [10:02] ok... I'm haveing sever drive issues... every so often, my system will reset.. shortly after a long drive access time... im beginning to worry about integrety and the drives MTTF [10:02] raylu: sda1 actually , once i do that, would i be able to log on to the system using root and the new password ? [10:02] (both of them) [10:02] ugupta if you want ppp to dial on boot, put it in /etc/rc5.d/S99rc.local [10:03] zax1: yes. you can also "sudo passwd username" any other users' password without supplying the old password [10:03] Hi, Can boot process be made to skip invalid entries in fstab instead of stopping to as root password ? [10:03] zax1: sudo passwd -Sa [10:03] zax1: will list all users [10:03] reel_: remove them from fstab [10:03] Hey raylu Dulak, I restarted SSHD after my network was actually working again and it is now working [10:03] Thank you both very much :D [10:04] Mark21: :) Yes, in case I donot have access to the machine? [10:04] tim_ranger: the easiest way is to install openssh-server, in my experience. from there, you can use scp/sftp [10:04] earthmeLon: doh, I should have thought of that, eth0 wasn't there to bind to when sshd started [10:04] earthmeLon: o.0, congrats [10:04] reel_: say the person that has access to change it ;) [10:04] Mark21: this is supposed to work with users having no experience with linux [10:04] nikolam: I am using gnome-ppp (which in UI for wvdial) [10:05] Yeah Dulak, but raylu has had me restart that damn thing 100 times, so who knows wth was going on [10:05] nikolam: actually the problem here is that bug I mentioned earlier [10:05] raylu: openssl - is an encryption server, i guess?.... i don't see how can it help, but i'l give it a try, though [10:05] raylu: i get an error: chroot can not run command "/bin/bash" exec format error [10:05] nikolam: I am not sure what it actually fixes [10:06] ok... I'm haveing sever drive issues... every so often, my system will reset.. shortly after a long drive access time... im beginning to worry about integrety and the drives MTTF btw, this just started today [10:06] raylu: thank you, by the way!! [10:06] nikolam: according to it the ppp connection should be able be detected by NM [10:06] is someone using xen on ubuntu 8.04 server edition (32 bit)? after installing with apt-get it doesn't startup after a reboot (it needs a different kernel). [10:06] tim_ranger: openssh, not ssl [10:06] What was the terminal command to get all dependencies associated with an application? [10:06] reel_: don't let them edit fstab or create a script that will fix it for them [10:07] zax1: sounds like you have a 32-bit cd on a 64-bit machine [10:07] nikolam: I think there is some ppp modem which work with NM, but mine is not being detected by NM [10:07] *sigh* So I installed the fglrx driver on my desktop via the "Hardware Drivers" application, and now I cannot get it to boot to anything visible. I have already attempted xfix in the recovery mode. Are there any suggestions? [10:07] ouch [10:07] how do i check that ? [10:07] zax1: if it comes down to it, you can manually edit /mnt/sda1/etc/passwd [10:07] raylu: ouch, dammit, i'm crapped ^_^ [10:07] how do i do that ? [10:07] nikolam: and pidgin totally depends on NM to detect the network [10:07] zax1: cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep flags [10:07] zax1: the lm flag indicates 64-bit-ness [10:08] Mark21: Do you have any idea which script stops the booting in this case? /etc/init.d/mountall.sh ? [10:08] nikolam: anyway thanks for your views.. [10:08] zax1: uname -m will show you your kernel's architechture support [10:09] :-D [10:09] zax1: sorry, i meant /mnt/sda1/etc/shadow [10:09] good morning === sleepy_cat is now known as c_nick [10:10] raylu: ok, so what do i do with that shadow file ? [10:10] zax1: that contains hashes of passwords [10:10] Hi, i downloaded karmic ubuntu CD because i want to install with LVM support on my partitions, now when i say in the installer that it writes the changes to disk, it says me that please inser the disk Ubuntu 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Alpha i386 20090629, wtf? [10:11] zax1: so you could copy over a hash from the livecd's system. "sudo passwd ubuntu" will allow you to change ubuntu's password on the livecd [10:11] Hi, I installed the theme Slickness Black, and I keep getting this error message now when I launch a gnome application. How do I get rid of it?

But this was not my question. -- What is telling me the type of the bus? [10:42] drowsy, you mean you want to install the desktop packages on a minimal/server install ? [10:42] drowsy, er ... which "graphic user interface" are you seeking? Gnome, KDE, or (preferably) fluxbox?

[10:44] aytekin__, /list (will get you a list of available channels= [10:44] drowsy, so you don't know if you want Gnome or KDE, better go for gnome [10:44] raylu: thanks alot [10:44] i thought ubuntu may of had a standard one with it, but it says it is installing graphic interface please wait, but nothing happens. im running this under VMware [10:45] zax1: np [10:45] raylu: but.....i tryed logging on and it would let me in [10:45] zax1: o.0 [10:45] drowsy, I've decided I don't like where this is going. Please refer all questions to someone else [10:45] Next! [10:45] zax1: perhaps you did it in the wrong drive. did you try to login as root? [10:46] joaopinto, --yea, but i ve searched it for, i didnt [10:46] no, i placed the hash in to the ubuntu account [10:46] aytekin__, it's not really the thing you need a channel for [10:46] ok i have fully installed ubuntu 8.04 under vmware on my xp pc, i boot up ubuntu and login fine! ... however at the top of the screen it says GRAPHICAL INTERFACE INSTALLING PLEASE WAIT. although this does not end up loading. i was wondering if there was something specific i had to type to get this working [10:46] i did it in nano which was a pain in the but for text editing, is there another text editor on the live cd ? [10:47] aytekin__, I mean you could join #php [10:47] aytekin__, but there is no general web development channel [10:47] ok i did [10:47] zax1: "gksu gedit" [10:47] zax1: gkedit [10:47] zax1: nano hard wraps, so i'd be worried about that [10:47] drowsy: i am using now vmware, it is working fine, it is something from your side [10:47] but there s nıbody over it [10:47] zax1, vim [10:47] hi [10:48] will firefox 3.5 be available on hardy ? [10:48] ok thx punda [10:48] i have no idea what could be going wrong [10:48] do i have to install vmware tools? [10:48] aytekin__, might I recommend you learn cakephp? [10:48] drowsy, no. Something seems to have gone wrong in your install [10:48] something comes up about installing vmware tools but i dont know how to, it doesnt give me any help regarding this [10:48] Since upgrading from 8.04.2 to 9.04 the number of loaded kernel modules cut in half. Why? [10:48] punda. what is that [10:48] punda: will cake auto build forms for CRUD? [10:49] drowsy, you should have no problems in installing [10:49] how can i [10:49] drowsy, are you sure you dont have another cd/iso setup for the vmware image ? That message does not appear to be related to an ubuntu installer [10:49] drowsy: i run ubuntu on a Virtual PC 2007 at work so try that maybe ??? [10:49] Dulak, yes [10:49] will firefox 3.5 be available on hardy ? [10:49] aytekin__, google it. You might like it [10:49] punda: mmmmm, I'm gonna have to look at that, codeigniter is making me code out the entire admin interface of my site. [10:49] punda, thx man [10:49] gribouille, not on the regular repositories [10:49] ok, what i think im going to do is re-download it, the latest version for that matter [10:49] 9.04 is latest version am i correct? [10:49] joaopinto, where then ? [10:49] drowsy, yes [10:50] gribouille, maybe backports, you shouldnot expect newer software versions on an older release [10:50] Dulak, I used to use codeigniter too. Cakephp can be a little inflexible, but it's quick to get a CRUD framework up [10:50] punda: does it use URIs or GET vars? [10:50] thanks anyways people, im new to linux first time user haha thought i would give ubuntu a shot, however things did not go to plan. i guess the latest version might be easier for me to work out [10:50] Dulak, well, it can (obviously) use both, but mostly URI [10:51] punda: sweet, I"m gonna check it out in a few, CI is driving me mad with the amount of duplication I have to do [10:51] drowsy, don't give up hope [10:51] Dulak, yeah, it blows chunks sometimes [10:51] joaopinto, are you joking ? hardy is just one year old [10:51] Dulak, as long as your cool with the MVC model it's pretty easy [10:51] thanks ;) [10:52] gribouille, I am not joking, that software update policy in general is to not update packages after release, except for security or critical patches [10:52] punda: yeah MVC is fine with me [10:52] I mean, the software update policy for Ubuntu [10:52] joaopinto, the infamous megafreeze [10:52] Dulak, well get developing then! [10:52] ;-) [10:52] gribouille, stable release update policy :) [10:53] joaopinto, don't even tell him about Debian's policies if that freaks him out [10:53] joaopinto, you won't get many desktop users that way [10:53] if you want to be on the bleeding edge debian unstable is much fresher than ubuntu [10:53] bleeding edge for newbs == dependency hell [10:54] I'm just pointing out the other side of the coin [10:54] gribouille, there are some projects which try to serve people needing updated software, officialy you have the backports repoistory, non officially you have the getdeb site [10:54] and that's why I respect you, Dulak === o_a is now known as b_y === tim_ranger is now known as tim|ranger [10:55] drowsy - you'll probably have better luck dual booting, if you can, rather than running in a virtual machine...imo [10:55] joaopinto, is the backports repository reliable ? [10:55] khelvan, there are no problems with using ubuntu and VMware [10:55] khelvan, why do you say that ? what's wrong with a vmware install ? [10:55] gribouille: i've used it before, never had a problem with anything from backports that I can remember [10:56] gribouille, I don't know, I am a getdeb user, not backports :\ [10:56] nothing wrong with backports ... [10:56] who manages the backports repo ? [10:56] what doyou mean "reliable"? [10:56] gribouille, a few members of the team which manages the regular repository [10:57] it's not like backports is run by cowboys or anything [10:57] Bus 002 Device 004: ID 0d49:7450 Maxtor {portable HDD} mounts only in readonly mode , any remedy ? [10:57] punda, I mean that software from this repo is correctly packaged [10:57] hemanth, have you checked dmesg for errors related to the mount ? [10:57] hemanth: umount it, fsck it, remount and see if it'll mount rw [10:57] hemanth, um, unmount it and try to mount it read write and see what happens [10:57] Oh, Dulak pre-empted my next step :( [10:58] Dulak: punda: ok [10:58] depending on the result fsck that puppuy [10:58] joaopinto: nope [10:58] s/puppuy/puppy [10:58] Hey Guys whats a Good program to make Animated Gif's? [10:59] joaopinto: end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 244210863 [10:59] TriMe, Gimp [10:59] Next! [10:59] hemanth, fsck that puppy [10:59] hemanth, that explains why it's mounted ro [10:59] like there's no tomorrow [10:59] fsck will not fix I/O errors [10:59] yup, drive is dying [10:59] copy everything you can off it [10:59] don't tell him that! [10:59] he'll panic [10:59] I/O errors indicates a major failure, either an hw failure, or a driver issue [10:59] get a seagate [10:59] most likely, and hw failure [11:00] joaopinto: o no [11:00] But he loves that sector! [11:00] I'm guessing it worked and stopped, so probably hw [11:00] ok then, dd that puppy [11:00] hemanth, copy the data to another media, and pray :) [11:00] No praying! [11:00] Hi - Parallel to my ubuntu 9.04 I installed an open-suse 11.1 on its own partiton as dual boot system.. I am considering getting rid of the o-suse again now - just deleting the partition will not be all to do or? [11:00] I bet windows would mount it rw even with that error [11:01] Dulak, so do I [11:01] joaopinto: 250gb of data , where to copy ! [11:01] I even bet if you fscked it you would get interesting results [11:01] If I just delete the o-suse partition then jaunty wont start properly I assume.. so i need to fix something about grub or...? [11:01] frybye, it depends on how you have setup the boot manager [11:01] !restoregrub | frybye [11:01] Sorry, I don't know anything about restoregrub [11:01] punda: doing fschk [11:01] !grub [11:01] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [11:01] punda: yer a little evil, I like you [11:01] Dulak, heh [11:01] frybye: you will probably have to delete the entry from /boot/grub/menu.lst [11:02] hemanth, attempting to fix a failing drive by changing contents can trash it even more [11:02] NE, why?! [11:02] hemanth, 250Gig? Well, since you probably need a new drive anyway .... [11:02] * hemanth fschk must save the day , h/w failure will make /me sad [11:02] NF - the booting seems to be being done by suse now..? [11:02] hemanth: seriously, don't fsck it, turn it off until you can copy data off it, cuz it's just gonna get worse [11:02] frybye, you may need to reinstall grub, check the message from ubottu [11:02] hemanth, don't fsck it unless you are willing to lose data [11:02] cowgarden: I take that the suse system is listed in the grub menu as well [11:02] punda: so you mean I should switch to 1tb? [11:03] hemanth, do nothing to it until you can get another drive [11:03] NE, so that one would just now work, but ubuntu would and he could just delete the suse-entry from it [11:03] Then obviously do a bit-stream copy [11:03] frybye: hmm. the booting is from the suse grub isntallation you say ? [11:03] ho can i log in as root ? [11:03] * hemanth fully confused [11:03] !root | zax1 [11:03] zax1: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [11:03] I'm gonna have to remember that next time, don't tell em to fsck it before you try a manual mount. That would have been more than a little evil. [11:04] hemanth, leave the drive alone. It's toast [11:04] punda: ha ha [11:04] hemanth, get another drive then come back for advice [11:04] frybye, make a backup of your menu.lst, so you can copy the ubuntu-entry in your new grub if it doe snot work out of the box [11:04] NE - yeah because I notice that the dual-boot- menu is in suse design now... [11:04] Dulak, actually, when you have a read-only mount, the first thing to check is dmesg, as it will have a reason why the mount was read-only [11:04] retrying a failed operation is not a good practice :) [11:04] you can get a tb drive for $150< [11:04] joapinto: dmesg is for wimps! ;) [11:05] joaopinto: good point though [11:05] Bad point! [11:05] punda: if 1Tb also end up with the same issue ?! [11:05] frybye, like I said, you mau need to restore grub, changing suses menu.lst will not help, because that menu.lst will be lost once you remove suse's partition [11:05] frybye, than you have to reiinstall grub: [11:05] cowgarden - the one in suse or will there be the old one someplace in ubuntu from before the suse was installed.. can I just re-activate that one?? [11:05] may [11:05] he'll only learn by massive catastrophes [11:05] hemanth, if it has bad sectors as soon as you buy it, return it [11:05] frybye, or, before removing suse, just boot into ubuntu, and re-run grub-install [11:06] iwent to all the trouble of changing the password for root and now can even log on to it [11:06] hemanth, if the drive is serious damaged and you have important data, you man need to use ddrescue for the copy [11:06] frybye, the one in suse. but maby it mixes up the partitions :) try a clean reinstall of grub from a live CD [11:06] ok I will read all the stuff about grub - will try your method then joaopinto [11:06] frybye: when in ubuntu, what happens when you try to reinstall grub? also, a good thing to do is to get the menu.lst from the suse installation and have it somewhere in the ubuntu installation for refference. Only when you can see that there's no reference to the suse installation during booting, only then you could delete the suse partition. [11:06] frybye, yea, the ubuntu reinstall-grub method sounds good [11:07] hmm, you made hemanth angry [11:07] error lbreakout install Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libstdc++2.10 [11:07] fine - I am a load further on now - thanks folks... [11:07] when i inspect etc/shadow i can see laods of users, can i log in with any of them ? [11:07] prefrontal, did you install lbreakout from the repository ? [11:07] zax1, are you a member of the admin group ? [11:08] nope i am a member of the 'got a server to get in to' group [11:08] nice group [11:08] oh and also a memeber of the 'dont know anything about linux/ubuntu' group [11:08] not exactly "wheel" [11:08] :) [11:09] zax1, on a terminal type: id [11:09] again [11:09] if you are not member of the admin group, you can't get sudo [11:09] punda, what does that "wheel" stand for? It's the sudoable usergroup in arch and I wondered what that name came fom [11:09] i cant log on to the server, only logged on through live cd [11:10] wheel is the original root group [11:10] is any of the built in users members of the admin group ? [11:10] cowgarden, oh no, i've started something. RMS hates "wheel" [11:10] :) [11:10] ancient unix put root in the wheel group, it evolved into a root group [11:10] Dulak, why "wheel"? did they need wheelchairs to get anything done? [11:10] er, it's not ancient [11:10] BSDs and real unix still uses wheel [11:11] zax1, can't you boot with rescue mode ? [11:11] cowgarden: honestly I don't know why it was called wheel [11:11] only GNU doesn't [11:11] Dulak, okey :) [11:11] joaopinto: i dont know how [11:11] knock knock, can we geton topic ppl ? [11:11] i have a ubuntu 32 cd and the os is 64 [11:11] zax1, first, why can't you login, what error do you get ? [11:12] i dont have the log/pass - its a server of a client who had their admin leave on bad terms, so he isnt giving the password [11:12] !offtopic [11:12] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [11:12] zax1, you will need to boot into rescue mode, you have that option during boot [11:12] zax1, drop into single user mode [11:13] and then reset the admin user password, with: passwd user [11:13] zax1: boot it single user mode and add a new user, then add that user to the admin group, then change that user's password, then you can login as that user and sudo [11:13] zax1, then .. oh, it's covered [11:13] ciao [11:16] pretty boring when we're all on topic, huh? [11:16] punda: Dulak to get in to single user mode i need to log in as someone, and i dont have any user password [11:16] zax1: it prompts for a password when you choose rescue mode? [11:17] uh, no you don't [11:17] user first [11:17] zax1: you gotta boot rescue mode from the menu that pops up when it first boots, before the user prompt [11:17] Dulak: i know.... then , and space and single right ? [11:18] zax1: is this ubuntu? [11:18] I forgot password in another PC with ubuntu 9.04, can I restore it? [11:18] would you guide me in ? i'll do it now [11:18] ubuntu server [11:18] zax1: it should have a menu option for rescue mode [11:18] it does, gives me 2 kernels with rescue in ( ) [11:18] goodmorning. [11:18] zax1: select the top kernel with rescue mode, either shoudl work though [11:18] is it normal for xorg to have always above 12-13% cpu usage ? even when i am not doing any process ? [11:19] k, rebooting from live cd now [11:19] Does anyone have time to help me with a couple questions? [11:19] alarm: yeah constant cpu is normal for X [11:19] Can I recover a password in ubuntu 9.04 desktop? Thanks [11:19] Hello folks..anyone having troubles with pidgin? I have got a segmetation fault but yesterday was fine [11:20] Nehyx: if you have physical access you can boot it into rescue mode and change the password [11:20] http://nopaste.org/p/ayy15yruA [11:20] Dulak: chose recovery mode and hit enter ? [11:20] Nehyx: No, but you can boot into recovery mode and change it. [11:20] zax1: yup [11:20] why do i think that on debian my idle was like lower than 20% on a slower system, while here i am above 20% most of the time [11:20] Dulak: k, option is now [11:20] which one ? [11:20] jpds: how? [11:20] root ? [11:20] zax1: it doesn't matter, just choose the first rescue mode [11:20] alarm: might it be trackerd daemon? [11:21] Whenever I install the driver for my video card, all applications freeze, including my gnome panels, update manager, and anything that requires a sudo login in the terminal. Does anyone know why this might be? [11:21] what is trackerd daemon ? :) [11:21] Nehyx: At grub, pick recovery mode. [11:21] Dulak: i have resume, dpkg, root, xfix [11:21] Nehyx: Then, when you get the root shell, do: password $USERNAME [11:21] Nehyx: I mean: passwd $USER [11:22] zax1: ummm, weird, I think you need to choose root, I don't remember it prompting for anything last time I did this [11:22] ok, chose root [11:22] jpds: ok, thanks [11:22] and logged in with a password i hashed through the live cd [11:22] Anyone know why all applications lock up when I install my display driver? [11:22] can i create an admin user from here ? [11:23] Am I in the wrong channel or something? [11:23] zax1: yup, just do something like "useradd zax" [11:24] smashbox, patience grasshopper [11:24] smashbox, ofc they lock up, you are still in X [11:24] ?...? something like ? [11:24] Sorry =( [11:24] smashbox, what display driver is it? [11:24] Supersaiyan: What is ofc? And what is X? =( [11:25] zax1: we'll make it real simple ok? Do this: "adduser zax" and follow the prompts, it will end with asking you for a password [11:25] zax1: tell me when that's done [11:25] oh boy, this'll be fun. I'll leave it to Supersaiyan_IV [11:25] is there a program which can index all pdf docs in my system? [11:25] something lke a playlist and metadata management but for docs.. [11:25] a doc player:) [11:25] punda, bah [11:25] heh [11:25] saravanan, a document management system [11:25] Dulak: there are no prompts [11:25] ? [11:25] smashbox, what kind of driver are you trying to install [11:25] punda: yeap [11:26] smashbox, paste the filename here, unless it's a .deb [11:26] zax1: ok so it just came right back to the prompt? [11:26] Supersaiyan: The one on the [11:26] whoops sec [11:26] saravanan, well, I'm writing one for university atm. I'll get back to you when it's done :) [11:26] saravanan, sorry [11:26] just sitting on next line root@ubuntu:~# [11:26] zax1: type "passwd zax" and give that user a password [11:26] ok [11:26] zax1, and then thank Dulak [11:26] zax1: then add zax to the admin group: "adduser zax admin" [11:26] how to fix GPG error [11:26] Supersaiyan: 171.06 NVIDIA Accelerated Linux Graphics Driver [11:27] smashbox, allright [11:27] smashbox, is that installed through synaptic? [11:27] 'thank dulak' is not a recognised command [11:27] zax1: now you can reboot, and login as zax, and you'll be able to use sudo to get root access [11:27] smashbox, also, what gfx card do you have [11:27] great ! [11:27] Dulak: !Thanks! [11:28] zax1: and to be sure, you booted off the hdd right? [11:28] zax1: you didn't boot off the livecd? [11:28] hdd [11:28] zax1: ok, you can reboot and login as zax [11:28] smashbox, do yor run 32bit or 64bit? [11:29] Supersaiyan. I am using a GeForce 9600 GT. I am installing through Sybaptic. 32bit [11:29] i see, uninstall that driver [11:29] Synamtic* [11:29] would that user have access to all programs ? i am from a windows background , does it work similar that all progrmas would be gui available to that user ? [11:29] Yes I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu so I am not using one right now. [11:29] find / -iname \*porn\* -exec rm {} \; [11:29] oh sorry [11:29] smashbox, very good [11:29] zax1: yes, you might have to add that user to a couple more groups for a few things but it should work right away to let you in [11:29] smashbox, download the latest nvidia driver here http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_ia32_185.18.14.html [11:30] GPG error , how to fix it in ubuntu jaunty [11:30] zax1, you are now in control of that box! [11:30] zax1, do only good [11:30] punda: :D [11:31] Supersaiyan: Thank you very much for your help. I am looking at the installation directions at the bottom and it is telling me to use something called.. SuSE? [11:31] lol [11:31] smashbox, now after you've downloaded that you do ctrl+alt+F1 to enter shell, in shell you do 'sudo sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' [11:31] that something called SuSE [11:31] hi there. im having a problem with my ubuntu installation. having a problem booting up. booted into initramfs prompt instead of the desktop. in the livecd mode i cant mount the / partition. the error was bad superblock. tried running fsck /dev/sda but returned with bad superblock size error etc.. [11:31] At least the install directions didn't tell you to install Gentoo [11:32] smashbox, then you do 'sudo sh NVIDIA-filename --uninstall' [11:32] Dulak: punda not just yet though...it tells me i have no home directory and do i want root as my home directory....it is unlikely any thing will work unless you use a failsafe session.....................WHATS that all about ? [11:32] how to make gnome radio works on ubuntu [11:32] smashbox, then you simply install 'sudo sh NVIDIA-filename' [11:32] zax1, just agree to all that [11:32] smashbox, then 'sudo sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start' [11:32] smashbox, then 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start'* [11:33] smashbox, if you follow that you wont even have to reboot [11:33] dd if=pizza of=poop [11:33] sorry [11:33] zax1: you used useradd not adduser [11:33] smashbox, but be sure to have build-essentials downloaded [11:33] zax1: gonna have to reboot into rescue mode again and make yourself a home directory [11:33] you told him to use useradd [11:33] is anyone having problems with the update server speeds? [11:34] I cannot exceed 20~30 kbs [11:34] i saw the Http request headers and thats exactly what i want.. now i want to post some data to the url so in the header which i make i want to add the field names.. eg Name, Address etc which i will post in the message body.. so how to go about that i know i have to add it after Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded [11:34] but where [11:34] c_nick: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [11:34] punda: actually I told him that the first time but then changed it, it's my fault though really [11:34] the speed seem to be like that on my machine [11:34] Dulak, see? That's why I like you - you don't run from responsibility [11:34] Dulak, but it's his fault [11:34] ;-) [11:34] hmmmm, could be.... [11:35] k, restarting [11:35] zax1: reboot into rescue mode and do "mkdir /home/zax" then "chown zax:zax /home/zax" and reboot again and you'll be in [11:35] zax1, don't worry - it'll mean you really know how to do it. And it's a nice thing to know [11:35] zax1: my fault there I should have made sure and told you I had changed the command [11:35] punda: great that you are working on one! are you taking any base? such as evince or so? [11:36] yeah , i really feel liek i know what i am doing :P [11:36] saravanan, we have to do it from scratch. I chose PHP and MySQL, others chose different things like ASP.Net, even C++ cgis lol [11:37] saravanan, the heavy lifting will be done by C++ though [11:37] punda: what?! oh thats an online thingy? i was thinking of an offline one.. [11:37] a rhythmbox/amarok for docs.. [11:37] Dulak: so basicaly i am making a directory, then changing its ownership to zax ? [11:38] zax1: yup [11:38] and am all done ? [11:38] saravanan, er yeah, it's for both, sorry. We keep talking about this though and someone will give us a .... [11:38] !offtopic [11:38] zax1: yup, once that's done you reboot and should be able to login as zax now [11:39] hmm.. unfortunately as of now there isn't more to talk.. i'll check it up.. i would like to do tht in emacs though.. so digging deep on (info "(emacs) Dired") :) [11:39] punda: ^ [11:39] in emacs? [11:39] yeap [11:39] hmm that reminds me too much of my lisp class [11:40] and that makes me hungry [11:40] i didn't had any:( [11:40] I'd demand your tuition fees back [11:40] but ofcourse i had my lunch a plate starts with an opening paranthesis and ends with a closing paranthasis:) [11:40] hehe === [ifroog] is now known as [criipt] [11:44] is firefox 3.5 going to be added to the 904 repositories? [11:44] no, but the new lynx will be! [11:44] it's hot === TamCore[oFF] is now known as TamCore [11:44] and no chance of XSS [11:44] xss? [11:45] cross site scripting [11:45] Dulak: i have a light baige(whitish0 screen and a mouse pointer, but no desktop or anything i can do on that machine , Does it take a long time for first log on ? [11:45] no javascript, you see [11:45] zax1: hit ctrl-alt-f1 and see if it gives you a normal login prompt [11:46] zax1: there are a couple default groups you probably need that user added to for everything to work right [11:46] zax1: it has literally been years since I had to do this the long way [11:47] if only ubuntu had a "wheel" group it would be so much easier :( [11:47] just jokes RMS, just jokes! [11:47] when ct+alt+f1 i get a ubuntu login [11:47] don't take my ubuntu back! [11:47] and can log in there [11:47] zax1: ok let's add you to some groups [11:47] ctrl+alt+f7 then gets me to the same vanilla scrn [11:47] zax1: do this: sudo adduser zax video [11:48] zax1: then do "sudo adduser zax audio" [11:48] sudo call pizza dude [11:48] ciao [11:48] zax1: keep doing it for all these groups: adm, dialout, cdrom, floppy, dip, plugdev [11:48] are there any other IM chat programs I can use other than pidgin? I'm currently using ubuntu 8.10 [11:49] u r joking a floppy group ? [11:49] i was wondering if there was a graphical way in jaunty to set samba shares recursively [11:49] zax1: it's a default group for access to drives labeled floppy [11:49] zax1: I'm just going off the default groups I'm in on this box, not sure what all is absolutely required [11:49] Supersaiyan: Are you still here? [11:49] now only the top folder is accessible [11:49] all subfolders cant be accessed [11:50] zax1: once you have the user added to all the groups, run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" then switch back over to the F7 and see if you can login [11:51] if i completely-remove all 'Not installed (residual config)' packages using synaptic [11:51] will the bogeyman destroy my unixes/ [11:51] because some page is advising me to (need to clear up some space), but there are a lot of them, and i am a-fearful [11:52] Hi all. Need some help, Need to create a backup CD/DVD of my Ubuntu8.04 Hardy [11:52] s#/#?# [11:52] jut a sec on the phone [11:52] nsh: apt-get autoclean might be a better option [11:52] Hi all. Need some help, Need to create a backup CD/DVD of my Ubuntu8.04 Hardy [11:53] hi all, there's an official chan for xchat? [11:53] PLzzzzz Hi all. Need some help, Need to create a backup CD/DVD of my Ubuntu8.04 Hardy [11:53] mmmm [11:53] anyone can help [11:54] ? [11:54] nsh:Not installed residual configs are configs left over from packages that are no longer installed, removing them is extremely unlikely to cause any problems, it also not going to gain you a great deal of space, regardless of how many there are. [11:54] right [11:54] i'll save that as a more lasterly resort [11:54] any good tips for filesystem cleanup? [11:55] burn yer porn to dvds after you're done with your business... [11:55] ;) [11:55] * nsh smiles [11:56] nsh: as sugegested by monckt, sudo apt-get autoclean will do some work clean sudo apt-get clean would free up more space though. [11:57] right on [11:59] nsh: you can also gain about 180Mb by removing language packs you don't need e.g german french etc. [11:59] hi, does someone know what happend to the openVZ kernels in jaunty ? [11:59] Thingymebob, ah, thanks [11:59] nsh: and Thingymebob, also maybe some dh_ scripts? http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/hardy/man7/debhelper.7.html [12:00] i have problems with smb file shares [12:00] is there any packages that contains extra mime types icons ? [12:00] i cant access any subfolders [12:00] vigo: Cheers, bookmarked! [12:00] nsh: localepurge is a package that will purge all the extra locale files you don't use, providing you don't need multiple languages on the machine [12:01] * nsh notes [12:01] ok a sudo chmod -R a+rwx solved it [12:01] nsh: saved me a bit of space once upon a time [12:01] on it now [12:02] Yes. local purge is a neato one also. [12:02] It's ongoing too, runs everytime you install a new package and clears out the stuff you won't use [12:02] nice [12:03] Dulak: same thing vanilla screen , no desktop [12:03] zax1: at the login screen, do you have an options menu? try some of the other session types, maybe gnome-failsafe will work or something [12:03] I have a Nvidia graphic card (nVidia Corporation C51PV [GeForce 6150] (rev a2)), and the max resolution i can have 640x480, even when installing nvidia drivers using envyng, what else can i do ? [12:04] on hardy [12:05] I had that same problem on hardy, used envyng to install the oldest version of the nvidia driver and it worked, but then that version was removed [12:05] hi all, I wonder if anyone could help me. Im trying to delete words that contain a certain character (e.g. ø) from a text file using a sed command with no luck any ideas?. [12:06] Dazzler: Use Perl [12:06] hello [12:06] can anyone help me with a python+ubuntu question? [12:06] ok, might it be better to maybe do the adduser or useradd from the start ? [12:06] Dazzler: what joel said, I don't think sed's regex has a word boundary option like perl does [12:06] maxagaz: Hardy 8.04.2? [12:07] zax1: nope you have a full user, with the same groups adduser would have added you to, that's what I walked you through. On the login screen for the GUI, (F7) does it have an options or sessions menu there? [12:07] Dulak: well done, on failsafe i am in [12:07] joel_: i was looking at Perl tbh I'm not very good at this and got bit confused when I tried :). I will have another look n see if I can do it [12:07] Dulak: cheers mate will have a look [12:07] Dulak: well done, on failsafe i am in [12:08] zax1: ok so the default gnome setup is hosed somehow, that's probably broke for everybody [12:08] he might have been malicious about his leaving, so yeah thats possible [12:09] I am looking for gtkmoz where in the repo's do I find it? [12:09] how would i flush it ? [12:09] zax1: the thing is it should have worked for a brand new user, but it didn't, so something is major wrong there, not something simple [12:10] zax1: I would recommend copying all the important data off the machine, and wiping it and doing a fresh install, it's the only way to be sure he didn't leave anything behind [12:11] which channel is for ubuntu packagers? [12:11] hmmm, fair point [12:11] /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.freshclam <--- Is this file safe to remove? [12:12] anyone? [12:12] some of the folders have a padlock on them, and i am told i have no permissions, how can i allow my self in on all folders [12:12] ? [12:12] ims: That is like an update manager, ClamAV is the package, freshclam is the sig update vehicle. [12:12] ims: check to see what package owns it: dpkg -S usr.bin.freshclam [12:13] Hi room [12:14] Dulak, dpkg: *usr.bin.freshclam* not found. [12:14] A|i: ubuntu-dev or something like that, you mean Karmic or some other not yet released thing? [12:14] vigo, not just ubundu debian packagers [12:15] wondering if anyone could help me out with my sound, just installed Ubuntu 9 64 bit and the sound to my headphone jack doesn't work but the speakers do, already checked volume control settings [12:15] ims: sec I'm testing [12:16] ims: you didn't put the * in there or you did? [12:16] A|i: Current, Stable or Proposed? [12:16] Hello, I have a problem with Acer Aspire One 751 on Arch - X doesn't work, from wikipedia "There is no sufficient driver support for the GMA 500. The driver wasn't developed in-house and will not work with kernels newer than 2.6.24." Does it works on Ubuntu? [12:16] vigo current, package maintainers [12:17] ims: if you added * to it, don't, just dpkg -S usr.bin.freshclam [12:17] ims: if it doesn't find it, the file doesn't belong to any package [12:17] Dulak, Just purge my clamav package... [12:17] dmesg prints a line: 'sr 0: 0: 1: 0: Attached scsi generic sg1 type 5.' Can you please translate this into English? [12:18] Dulak, And I'm trying to clean out. [12:18] ims: well if dpkg -S doesn't find it, the file is not owned by a package, so fairly safe to delete it [12:18] A|i: That would be something like dpkg , but that is some iffy territory. [12:18] sergeykish: have you asked in Arch's channel? [12:19] dulak, thanks! [12:19] Dulak: some of the folders have a padlock on them, and i am told i have no permissions, how can i allow my self in on all folders on the drive ? [12:20] zax1: you have to use sudo for that, it's multi-user with permissions [12:20] Myrtti: of course, seems all slip [12:20] sergeykish: we don't support arch on this channel, that's why I was asking [12:20] how do i do that on a folder ? [12:20] Myrtti: I ask because it is driver problem [12:21] sergeykish: and we don't go to #debian to ask about driver problems either... [12:21] zax1: you could change it's perms, or just get root and check things out that way. It's not a good idea, but you can get a full root login with "sudo -i" [12:21] zax1: then that login will have full access to everything till you exit the shell [12:21] zax1: the GUI runs as your normal user, so it won't be point and click [12:22] Myrtti: I'm asking "does it works on ubuntu?" [12:22] hello there, Ubuntu Jaunty x86_64, starting yesterday, and with no apparent reason, I've started to notice that my main disk I/O is slower than usual, any ideas? [12:22] so sudo -i will get me SUDOing all through out the session ? [12:22] besides the fact (God forbids it!) that my disk may be dying (it would be the 1st SATA disk dying on me) [12:22] sergeykish: I vaguely remember somebody a bit ago not getting the newest acer laptops working cuz of that new graphics chip, so I'd say tentatively no [12:23] by the way on terminal i cant get the real deal i only get a $ prompt and i cant get the arrow keys like i could before, would that be because of the session i used ? [12:23] zax1: sudo -i pretends like you logged in as root, but only for that one terminal [12:23] my emule dont start the downloads why??? === rmatte_ is now known as rmatte [12:24] only on that terminal window ? [12:24] zax1: yeah you do that in the terminal [12:24] how can i ch permission on the entire drive ? [12:24] hallo [12:25] zax1: DONT! [12:25] Dulak: thanks [12:25] zax1: the quick way is to enable root, then login to the GUI as root, but that's still a very bad idea [12:25] kann mir jemand helfen [12:25] well it will allow me to move all out of that server and wipe it as you suggested, wont it ? [12:25] zax1: yes but it's the lazy bastid's way of doing it, not a good sysadmin [12:26] Racker: this is an international channel, English only please, thanks. Racker: try ubuntu-de if you speak Deutsch, good luck [12:26] zax1: if you want to do it the fast way, I suggest google, it's really frowned on here to tell noobs how to enable root [12:28] !root [12:28] Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [12:29] nice Matrix'ish help bot [12:29] yo yo yo [12:29] I love that bot message [12:29] heheh [12:29] vigo: indeed, I'm going to fetch my spoon... oh! there's no spoon! [12:29] ok, then whats the good practice way of giving a user permissin on a folder that is locked and is owned by root ? [12:30] ActionParsnip: yo yo yo [12:30] Now have a cookie, or not. [12:30] hi [12:30] zax1: becoming root, giving him access to that folder, done [12:30] zax1: give the folder a different group permissoion, then add the user to that group [12:30] ActionParsnip: slow, but more accurate than me, writer ;) [12:30] you are talking as if i have a clue bout what you are saying...... [12:30] vigo: for all I care, yes we do [12:31] can i get the idiot way of doing this ? [12:31] is there a way to tell ubuntu to switch audio from spraker output to bluetooth headphones ? [12:31] zax1: sorry [12:31] Are the package versions on ubuntu the same as debian? [12:31] zax1: so at the moment it will be root root, if you change it to root group_a (for example) then add root and the user to group_a then the user will get the access of the middle access byte in the chmod [12:32] Hi everybody === wet-chan is now known as wet [12:32] zax1: all files and folders have an owner and a group ownership, thats why there are 3 parts in a chmod command, like 750 [12:33] i am using a ramdrive from another pc for swap. can i also use the local disk for swap + ram-drive from the other pc? [12:33] I have a problem with zenoos & snmp protocol running in ubuntu [12:33] zax1: 750 = owner has RWX, the group that owns the file/folder has RX and the world and his dog has no access [12:33] ActionParsnip: its all over my head [12:33] sorry i thank you for the hep but can we step it back [12:33] zax1: then you need to read up on linux security [12:33] at the moment i have no access to a folder [12:34] Linux_User: Ubuntu is based on Debian, it gets kinda strange after that. [12:34] what command can i type in to get access to that folder and keep access to that folder permenantly ? [12:34] zax1: what is the folder you require access to? [12:34] zax1: but you can run commands with sudo, right? [12:34] I want to list OS Process info under OS tab like RRD in Prof Tab [12:34] i can run commands with sudo correct [12:34] zax1: then you can use sudo cp to write to it, or use gksudo nautilusto run nautilus with elevated priveledges [12:34] zax1: follow last advise from ActionParsnip then [12:35] just installed xubuntu, got a sound problem === dekkong is now known as street [12:35] Listen seem to crash [12:35] Linux_User: here, http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/Debian >>that explains it better than I can. [12:35] !runlevel [12:35] Sorry, I don't know anything about runlevel [12:35] zax1: what is the folder you require access to? [12:35] zax1: then you will need to create a new user group and give that group the ownership of the folder, or see what group currently owns the folder (use ls -l ) and add your user to that [12:36] !addgroup [12:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about addgroup [12:36] jefinc: lost+found ? [12:36] !groupadd [12:36] Sorry, I don't know anything about groupadd [12:36] wildman: man ? [12:36] unknowledgable bot :) [12:36] yeah :D [12:36] bad bot :D [12:36] !man [12:36] The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | Manpages online: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ [12:36] wildman: go teach her then [12:36] zax1: why would you require access to that? [12:36] wildman: type /msg ubottu hi [12:37] Nexos: I do know the man pages, I just wanted to tell zax1 something about group mgmt [12:37] I mean, to make the bot tell him [12:37] anyway... [12:37] ok [12:37] ActionParsnip: have other cats to whip, thx for the tip though [12:37] wildman: then type !groupadd is [12:37] /etc/rc0.d/K20clamav-freshclam <<---How can I delete this? (cleaning up on clamav) [12:37] cause its locked [12:37] joaopinto: hi , my kernel went to panic after fschk [12:38] ims: you can rename it so the k is lower case [12:38] ims: Tied aptitude? [12:38] i need access to a few other foldrs , this is jsut one [12:38] zax1: but why do you need to read/write to it? [12:38] can anyone explain what runlevel is? [12:38] !aptitude [12:38] aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide [12:38] ActionParsnip, Is that safe? [12:38] street: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runlevel [12:39] sudo gobbledegook blah_blah -w -t -f aWkward/ComBinationOf/mixedCase/underscores_strokes/and.dots [12:39] ims: sure, if it causes issues then boot to recovery root console and rename back [12:39] i dont know.. is the full answer, this a system that was locked by the previous suysadmin, he left on bad terms and didnt give out any passwords to the ubuntu server. i was hired to get in to that server and that is what i am trying to do. i dont know which folders they need access to, but ineed that server up and running with access to all files on it [12:39] zax1: like i keep telling you, look at the group ownership, if its not root then add yourself to that group, if not then create a new group, change the group owner to the new group and add yourself (and root) to that [12:39] ActionParsnip,ok, I'll try. [12:39] ActionParsnip: ok [12:40] bye ppl, good luck and have a nice day! [12:40] peace out wildman [12:41] zax1: so if the folder's ls -l shows:drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2009-06-30 12:33 samba [12:42] hai...hai... [12:42] zax1: then you can make a group called samba_group [12:42] zax1: There is a way to resolve that, let me find the documents. [12:42] zax1: then run: sudo chown :samba_group ./samba [12:42] ActionParsnip: many thanks [12:42] zax1: the ls -l will then read: drwxr-xr-x 3 root samba_group 4096 2009-06-30 12:33 samba [12:43] zax1: you will then need to add youur user and root to the samba_group [12:44] zax1: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-817792.html that explains a way to resolve such an issue. [12:44] zax1: if you read the group restriction you will see the group has execute and read access but you can add write access with: sudo chmod g+w ./samba and your user will have write access [12:44] zax1: as it is in the group and the group has write access [12:44] zax1: I dont recommend you type any of that, its just an example [12:45] zax1: i recommend you research linux priveledges and access thouroughly [12:45] ActionParsnip: offcourse :) [12:45] zax1: do you get it now? [12:45] I agree with ActionParsnip [12:46] zax1: its childishly simple once you know how [12:46] like most thing... [12:46] vigo: me to [12:46] zax1: you find windows folks dont understand permisions and access as they usually log in (stupidly) as admin [12:46] many thnks to you all [12:47] well, desktop users anyroad [12:47] whats the deal with atheros wifi drivers and ubuntu i cant get them working [12:47] l3dplated: my atheros works out of the box === ^Einstei1 is now known as ^Einstein [12:47] l3dplated: what is the output of: sudo lshw -C network [12:47] l3dplated: pastebin the output [12:47] l3dplated: don't paste it all here [12:47] !pastebin [12:47] !paste [12:47] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic [12:49] What is the advantage of installing from ubuntu dvd {4.5 gb iso} [12:49] Atheros AR5001X+ works out of the box since gutsy :) [12:50] hi! how can i remove the boot loading ubuntu screen? i want only it to display the console output [12:50] hemanth: all the DEs are on the disk, not just one. as well as more language support on disk [12:50] ActionParsnip: are they listed anywhere ? Like which all ? [12:51] anyone knows how to install acroread on IA64? [12:51] lean2501: you can uninstall usplash, or you can edit /boot/grub/menu.list and remove the word quiet from the kernel line [12:51] ah ok thanks! [12:51] hemanth: all the ones from official releases, kubuntu, ubuntu, edubuntu, most of medibuntu [12:51] hjb: add medibuntu repos and then run: sudo apt-get install acroread [12:52] !medibuntu | hjb [12:52] hjb: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [12:53] Hello ! [12:53] howdy :) [12:53] ActionParsnip: so all the universal packages will be in my machine [12:53] ActionParsnip: thanks :) [12:54] hi, anyone having trouble with wow 3.1.3? No OpenGL rendering mode? [12:54] hemanth: yes [12:54] warai: have you installed and configured video drivers? have you installed wine fromthe wine repo? [12:54] ActionParsnip: but i cant switch sessions .... [12:54] ActionParsnip: Of course, [12:54] hemanth: the list of packages will be on your machine, the packages won't be on your machine until you decide to install them [12:55] hemanth: if you install the other sessions, yes. If you use the web after you install then the DVD is pointless, unless you only have DVD media [12:55] warai: there is no of course here, hence me asking ;) [12:55] Dulak: can i do an offline installation or is there a method to install them all , cos i downloaded the iso and installed finding no difference so asked [12:56] ActionParsnip: hmm :)... anyway, wow worked fine before with 2.4.3 [12:56] how do i list all installed packages (cli)? [12:56] warai: maybe its a known bug with the update? I'd try asking in #winehq [12:56] ActionParsnip: i have the dvd , and i installed it from the same , i'm finding no difference b/w the normal and this version [12:56] hey i need some help to get my headphones working on my laptop [12:56] how do i list all installed packages (cli)? that are NOT dependencies? [12:56] zeno: dpkg -l | less [12:56] ActionParsnip: Thanks, I will look into it. [12:57] hemanth: you can mirror a repository, but for that type of situation it would probably be better to download individual packages you might actually use, since the repositories are huge [12:57] many thanks Dulak punda wildman ActionParsnip vigo and any one else who helpped me , adios [12:57] lo, does on freenode a channel for apache-module (mod_rewrite) exist? [12:57] is there a way to dynamically toggle the transparency of a window in compiz? [12:57] Dulak: the same would be done with a normal cd also right ? so what is the advantage of dvd ? [12:58] zeno, see here http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7343421&postcount=4 [12:58] ActionParsnip: Halitechthanks [12:58] zeno: np man [12:58] hemanth: I misunderstood your question, if you have the dvd you have most of the common packages on that dvd [12:58] zeno, just used that info last night after reinstalling and it works great :) [12:59] hello [12:59] hemanth: not all of them, but the more popular ones. To get even most of the packages it's at least 5 dvds [12:59] !hi | ayoyo [12:59] ayoyo: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [12:59] :) [12:59] does anyone have an archos 10 netbook? [12:59] Dulak: who installs ALL the packages....madness I say [13:00] ActionParsnip: yeah [13:00] !anyone | ayoyo [13:00] ayoyo: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [13:00] Dulak: where is the list of most common packages , packages.medibuntu is it ? if so even restricted will be active is it ? [13:00] dpkg: need an action option [13:00] Halitech: thats the err i get [13:00] hemanth: the list of all the packages is on the dvd, sec while I find it [13:01] i'd like to know if the sound recording works on an archos 10 with ubuntu 9.04 [13:01] Dulak: ok [13:01] zeno, did you copy and paste the command given first? [13:01] trying to compile a program on jaunty, it ends with error 'make: *** [all] Error 2'. Fulle output here > http://pastebin.com/d1f3c0ac [13:02] ayoyo: it can, it just may not work out of the box [13:02] MaT-dg: what program? [13:02] i have an holux m1000 - i need help on how to make gpsdrive working. [13:02] Halitech: yes i got that error [13:02] ziroday: prismstumbler [13:03] MaT-dg: you do know its in the repo's right? [13:03] zeno, try it with sudo, I may have done it that way [13:03] ho [13:03] ayoyo: they do sell on with uuntu preinstalled [13:04] hemanth: there are package lists all over actually, if you search the dvd for Packages.gz those are all files that list packages on the dvd [13:04] Halitech: same error [13:04] ziroday: yes, I'm aware of that, I installed from the repo's firstbut that's version 7.3 and it crashes all the time. The source I'm trying to compile is that of version 7.4 pre [13:04] MaT-dg: right, did you remove the old version of prismstumbler first? [13:04] MaT-dg: it seems that the code has an error, report it upstream (to the code's developer) [13:05] zeno, I see, not sure why it worked for me before but its not working now either .... maybe try the guys script from below it [13:05] boss_mc: I wouldn't jump to that conclusion just yet [13:05] Dulak: so if i install from a DVD those packages will be installed on my machine ? or should i do apt-cdrom ? [13:05] ziroday: yes, but that shouldn't make a differrence for compiling (make) right? [13:05] MaT-dg: correct, did you install the dependencies and ./configure ran fine? [13:05] ive install apache2 and rewrite is also enable but my mod_rewrite dont work in my .htacces any clues? [13:05] MaT-dg: possibly you have the wrong version of some header files (and libraries) [13:05] how do i search for a string that should appear inside a file in a directory? === uncle|sam is now known as Uncle|Sam [13:06] morris1: grep ./* [13:06] thanks! [13:06] morris1: try grep -r foo /path/to/wherever [13:07] ziroday: yes, installed al dependencies and configure seems ok [13:07] ziroday: i thouht it was -R not -r [13:07] ActionParsnip: they're interchangable iirc [13:07] ActionParsnip: they all do the same thing :) [13:07] ziroday: I can post output from configure to if u want [13:07] MaT-dg: yes please [13:08] ziroday: gotcha, just remembering its case sensitive ;) [13:08] Pici: apparently so.New knowledge today :D [13:08] ActionParsnip: :) [13:08] ziroday: http://pastebin.com/d3b2c0750 [13:09] how can i know if i'm metacity is active or compiz ? [13:09] hemanth, ps | grep metacity [13:09] hemanth: ps aux | grep -i compiz [13:09] hemanth: Titan8990_ beat me to it [13:09] some files are being downloaded on my system, is there a way to know where they are ? [13:09] ps -ef | grep -i compiz [13:10] maxagaz: being downloaded by...? [13:10] lol there was a line to tell about ps + grep [13:10] * ActionParsnip uses the linux standard :) [13:10] ActionParsnip: i'm running metacity [13:10] MaT-dg: hmm that all looks fine [13:10] jrib, by the hardware updater === o_a is now known as geekromario [13:10] Titan8990_: ziroday thanks [13:10] ActionParsnip: Hi again, people in other channels are not responding. Do you have wow 3.1.3 working fine? :) [13:10] maxagaz: you mean update manager? [13:10] jrib, yes [13:10] MaT-dg: I don't know sorry [13:10] i tired ps -aux | grep m* === geekromario is now known as geekroma [13:10] hemanth: you can even write a script to output what you are running based on the output of those grep commands :) [13:10] didnt work [13:10] ziroday: so it's an error in the code like boss_mc says? [13:11] MaT-dg: I'm not sure sorry [13:11] ActionParsnip: ok :) [13:11] hemanth: if you install off dvd, and want all the packages, you'll have to select all the packages when it comes to the point where it asks you about installing packages, then after it's done you would have all packages. [13:11] maxagaz: it downloads debs to /var/cache/apt/archives but why would you want to know that? [13:11] MaT-dg: can you pastebin gpsctl.c? [13:11] jrib, but independantly from that, is there some log of downloaded files ? [13:11] hemanth: otherwise, only the packages you select at install will be installed, but those packages would be on the dvd, if you wanted to install them later [13:11] Dulak: if i have missed that step ? [13:11] maxagaz: I don't know. Check /var/log/ [13:11] Dulak: it didnt prompt me at all! [13:12] hemanth: is the dvd listed as a package source in /etc/apt/sources.list [13:12] jrib, because the update manager looks like frozen [13:12] Dulak: brb [13:12] jrib, i'd like to make sure wether it's working or not [13:12] MaT-dg: in prismstumbler/src/deamon/ [13:12] maxagaz: can't you hit cancel or abort or whatever? [13:12] jrib, and i can see that something is being downloaded on the system [13:13] jrib, from the system monitor [13:13] jrib, i can do that yes [13:13] jrib, but it won't answer my question [13:13] maxagaz: what is your question? [13:14] boss_mc: gpsctl.c > http://pastebin.com/d2f5c5dbb [13:14] jrib, the Jockey backend crashed... [13:14] jrib, i've got my answer [13:17] How do I manually edit my wine menu in Applications? I've gone through the entire wine faq and nothing seems to help. [13:17] Trent0r_: right click on the ubuntu icon -> edit menu [13:18] jrib the folders will remain somewhere on the os though, I'm looking for the folder that acctually has the physical files === Uncle|Sam is now known as uncle|sam [13:19] Editing the menu via edit menu does not and will not work [13:19] Trent0r_: is it not editable with alacarte [13:19] MaT-dg: It isn't lying to you, there is no data member called newdata, I'd get in touch with the package developer and ask them (they may be using a different version of the library where this is valid code) [13:19] !info alacarte [13:19] alacarte (source: alacarte): easy GNOME menu editing tool. In component main, is optional. Version 0.11.10-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 55 kB, installed size 1240 kB [13:19] Trent0r_: ~/.local/ and ~/.config, read the freedesktop spec [13:19] Since today is Firefox 3.5 release day: will ubuntu 9.04 update automatically to it, or do i have to install the firefox-3.5 package (which yet is still beta tho) ? [13:19] what is application for modding/flashing A2 phone. [13:19] I've done it before, you find some folder and it has the programs folder and if you go inside the folder you see the tree of programs in the menu [13:19] !info nethack [13:19] Package nethack does not exist in jaunty [13:20] :( [13:20] DASPRiD: when its ready, it will come [13:20] DASPRiD: firefox 3.5 out today! amazing [13:20] DASPRiD: but yes, what ActionParsnip said [13:20] DASPRiD: you'll probably have to wait for 9.04 for the released firefox 3.5 to reach the official repos [13:20] Ah good, so we don't have to wait for 9.10 to have it officially supported in ubuntu :) [13:20] DASPRiD: but it should be available in a PPA [13:21] DASPRiD: I meant 9.10, sorry [13:21] oh :/ [13:21] DASPRiD: does the current release not work for you? [13:21] anyone knows if konqueror works with the adobe pdf plugin? [13:21] ActionParsnip, you mean the firefox-3.5 package? [13:21] hjb: i'd imagine so [13:21] !info firefox-3.5 [13:21] firefox-3.5 (source: firefox-3.5): safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.5~b4~hg20090330r24021+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 889 kB, installed size 3468 kB [13:21] i've enabled it but konqueror keeps crashing on pdfs now [13:22] DASPRiD: no, does the current firefox version you have installed at the moment work ok? [13:22] the 3.0? yes [13:22] boss_mc: right now? [13:22] butz i want the 3.5 features ;) [13:22] DASPRiD: then why do you want to fix something that isnt broken [13:22] DASPRiD: have you read the feature list? [13:22] sure [13:22] why else would i want it [13:22] DASPRiD: this selective history wiping thing...not such a big deal [13:23] ActionParsnip, and much more like partial html5 support [13:23] also it's much faster than ff 3.0 [13:23] new js rendering engine… [13:23] ActionParsnip: but the javascript performance (tracemonkey engine) should be a big deal, right? [13:23] * ActionParsnip loads up firepup ;) [13:24] if you want speed, opt for a firefox derivative thats simply lighter and faster [13:24] ActionParsnip, you mean: use lynx [13:24] :P [13:24] thats not a fix [13:24] DASPRiD: lynx isnt based on firefox is it [13:25] well but its faster [13:25] so its solves the slowness problem according to you [13:25] MaT-dg: whenever you can be bothered, the site's not very accessible though [13:25] epiphany? [13:25] DASPRiD: the answer here is that the safe and supported way is to wait for package maintainers to get 3.5 updated in the repos. Even though the final release is not in the repos, there is a beta or rc that has those features. Why can't you use that while it gets updated? [13:25] boss_mc: but how will you let me know? I'm not on this channel 24/7 [13:25] ActionParsnip: when you edit the menus of wine with the gnome edit menu you cant delete folders, I click delete but nothing happens... [13:26] DASPRiD: kazehakase is a good example [13:26] Trent0r_: tahats all i know, I dont use menus to launch apps so I am unsure [13:26] MaT-dg: I meant you get in touch with them [13:26] hmph [13:26] Trent0r_: I told you where they were already [13:27] DASPRiD: still uses firefox engines but is simply alighter app [13:27] I checked ~/.local and ~/.config, nothing was there [13:27] no wine folder jrib [13:27] Trent0r_: really? You checked ~/.local/share/applications/? [13:27] boss_mc: ah ok, so they is a change they fixe the code in a few days? [13:27] Trent0r_: checkin /usr/share/applications [13:28] Trent0r_: I am unsure how the folder that they appear in are managed but I'm sure if you opened a few in gedit/leafpad you could see whats going on [13:28] thanks jrib [13:28] MaT-dg: they'll either release a change or help you sort your install [13:28] I have this messages when my computer froze: hpet increasing min_delta_ns to 33750 nsec. A bunch of these message with increasing time. It has happened to me numerous time since I installed jaunty. Anyone can help with this? [13:28] MaT-dg: or bluntly ignore you... they're only human [13:28] :) [13:28] Trent0r_: i'm not sure what you're looking for exactly, but don't you need to be in ~/.wine/... ? [13:29] I got it thanks [13:29] ~/.local/share/applicaitions/wine/Programs === uncle|sam is now known as Uncle|Sam [13:29] Trent0r_: ~/.config also has relevant data iirc [13:30] Hola people [13:30] computer keeps freezing. error msg "hpet increasing min_delta_ns to 33750 nsec". Had to power down to bring it back up. Need help. [13:30] jrib: DASPRiD: I tried the firefox-3.5 package, you can install it next to firefox 3.0 and even run them both at the same time. Bookmarks and plugins are in both. The problem is that it's the beta4 so it's still very bugged. For example: back and forward buttons are greyed out [13:31] racerx: let me see what i can dig up [13:31] thanks [13:31] ~/.config has nothing for wine in it [13:31] hi, I'm trying to install easycam-gtk but it complains about missing python2.4-glade2 [13:31] and python2.4-gtk2, any idea what should I Install ? [13:31] racerx: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/270798 [13:31] Trent0r_: grep -R -i wine ~/.config/ [13:31] boss_mc: ok thanks, now the code on pastebin lasts only 1 day... is that a problem? [13:31] !bug 270798 [13:32] anyone can tell me what ubuntu using for remote desktop sharing? [13:32] MaT-dg: nah, why would it? [13:32] i need port of that app [13:32] nukedclx, is it windows remote? [13:32] boss_mc: dunno, maybe u give a link to it to the devs... [13:33] yeah those are the config files, i tried manually editing those and what it does is in gnome it will activate the "other" category in the menu and put them there [13:33] thx [13:33] boss_mc: I'm not familiar with reporting problems ;) [13:33] ActionParsnip: Are you using Jaunty as well? I may need to go back to previous version. [13:33] my friend tell me [13:33] MaT-dg, [13:33] he shared his desktop with builtin app but dont know port for forwarding [13:33] racerx: i dont get the error myself but i am using jaunty [13:33] MaT-dg: I havn't given them anything, you just send them an e-mail, explaining your problem, attach the output of make and ask for a fix/advice [13:33] nukedclx, on a windowsbox? [13:33] i need know something about that app [13:33] MaT-dg: it's very simple [13:33] on ubuntu [13:34] nukedclx, then it's vnc [13:34] i knew [13:34] then it will 5900 [13:34] i guess [13:34] nukedclx, usually yes [13:34] thanks. [13:34] nukedclx: if its using RDP then you need rdesktop and 3389 (default) [13:35] rdp isnt windows thing? [13:35] nukedclx, it is [13:35] I thought maybe it was because I use EXT4. I reformat and used EXT3 now. It has happened once so far since the last two days I switched to EXT3. [13:35] how can I install python2.4-glade2? [13:35] there are some viewers for linux though [13:35] nukedclx: if you are connecting to him thn you need no port forwarding, if he's connecting to you then open port 5800 and 5900 for both UDP and TCP and forward to the IP of the system running the servince [13:36] nukedclx: if he's connecting to you make sure you use an ssh tunnel for security as vnc is all plain text and unencrypted [13:36] !vnc > nukedclx [13:36] nukedclx, please see my private message [13:36] i know good that ideology, but i dont know ubuntu [13:36] im gentoo user :) [13:36] Question: Is IP tables a statefull firewall or just like an ACL in the Cisco world? [13:37] nukedclx: its all generic, vnc, rdp, ssh is distro independant [13:37] yea, but he said builtin [13:37] i dont know what ubuntu uses for that :) [13:37] nukedclx: sounds like RDP [13:37] nukedclx, vncserver is preinstalled [13:38] nukedclx: sounds like he's enabled remote logon using rdp [13:38] hm [13:38] ActionParsnip, isn't that much less obvious than vnc? [13:38] Galbadore: ip tables blocks and allows trafic based on rules only [13:38] hoellp: Okay, like a ACL then. Thanks. [13:38] hoellp: nothing is obviousto me. I always dig to find out whats shaking [13:39] ActionParsnip, i mean if you're new, you'd rather find vnc to enable than rdp [13:39] hoellp: i wouldnt use either, i'd use ssh and x forwarding [13:40] ActionParsnip, i use just ssh ususally, but still [13:40] hoellp: me too but folks like pretty pictures [13:40] we're drifting... [13:40] MaT-dg, i already installed the 3.5 package, but as you said, it's outdated (b4 instead of rc2) and it rquires the new xulrunner, which means i have to start it manually as it tries to use the old xulrunner by default [13:40] nukedclx, can't you just ask him what he activated? [13:40] hoellp: well he never stated what OS both sides of the connection were using [13:40] sure he did [13:41] how to switch off "Mirror Screens" ("System"->"Preferences"->"Screen Resolution") option with configuration files ? [13:41] ? [13:41] it's on ubuntu [13:41] so rdp would be a PITA, x-forwarding is pretty buried [13:41] hoellp: on both? [13:41] and vnc is right there in the menu [13:41] on the server, but that's the only thing that counts... [13:41] hoellp: how do you mean buried? [13:42] ActionParsnip, that it's not really easy to find [13:42] hoellp: its default enabled when you install openssh-server [13:42] hoellp: so if the client system is linux with a running x server its all done, and secure [13:43] ActionParsnip, i know [13:43] ActionParsnip, but still it's about a kind of novice who activated some desktop sharing [13:44] that's probably vnc in 90% of the cases [13:44] well i assume nothing on here [13:45] i got a meeting kiddiwinks, peace out [13:45] MUST uninstall / reinstall Firefox. But once I uninstall, I have no browser! How do I install stuff without a browser??! [13:46] sillyCEO, how do you install with a browser? [13:46] sillyCEO, and why do you need to reinstall? [13:46] !p3nfs [13:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about p3nfs [13:46] hoelip: I usually go to "firefox.com" and download software [13:47] sillyCEO, that's win-style, you probably don't want to do that on ubuntu [13:47] heh [13:47] heellp: oh. [13:47] lynx/wget [13:47] sillyCEO, open system-systemconfig-synaptic package manager [13:47] and search for firefox there [13:47] hoellp: yes, found that. [13:47] well, with Firefox both ways work, really. [13:47] that's how you "should" install all of your programs [13:48] finally [13:48] its vnc [13:48] thanks [13:48] you should compile, really [13:48] hoellp: But once I uninstall, where do I get it again? [13:48] sillyCEO, exactly there [13:48] heollp: Oh! I thought it would disappear! [13:48] sillyCEO, but the question remains why you need to reinstall [13:48] sillyCEO, in most cases that won't change anything [13:49] hoellp: I have a bad add-in causing problems. [13:49] add-on [13:49] sillyCEO, can you start ff? [13:49] yes [13:49] but can't uninstall the addon i guess? [13:49] heollp: yes, but I think it 'leaves' someting. [13:50] MaT-dg, found a ppa of mozilla which daily ships the newest ff :) [13:50] usually not [13:50] sillyCEO, but we can make sure of that [13:50] DASPRiD: nice, gimme gimme ^^ [13:50] hoellp: how? [13:50] sillyCEO, you're on ubuntu (gnome-ui)? [13:50] MaT-dg, http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/05/daily-firefox-35-36-repository-for.html [13:50] heollp: Eeebuntu. On an EeePC [13:50] currently rc2 is in there, should soon update to final [13:51] sillyCEO, then please open the filemanager in your home-directory [13:51] sillyCEO, that's gnome, yeah, a little modified === the_archit3ct is now known as qss [13:51] heollp: OK in file manager [13:51] sillyCEO, once in homefolder, press ctrl+h to see the hidden folders [13:51] anyone have the splinter cell linux install for xbox? [13:51] sillyCEO, the ones with "." before [13:51] sillyCEO, find .mozilla [13:51] heollp: done [13:52] heollp: OK [13:52] if you don't care about ff settings, you can just rename/delete it [13:52] sillyCEO, then you're back to factorysettings [13:52] What would be the best ubuntu spin to use for audio recording? [13:52] heollp: wow, cool. [13:52] heollp: It will make a new one when I start FF? [13:52] sillyCEO, yes [13:53] heollp: Will give it a shot, thx [13:53] you can export your bookmarks before if you want [13:53] heollp: So delete the whole hidden .mozilla folder? [13:53] why not remove the extension in ~/.mozilla/firefox/.default/extensions ? [13:53] that way you dont loose your settings [13:53] sillyCEO, like i said, just do it if you won't miss anything [13:54] heollp: dont care about settings. [13:54] JNSamual: Good idea, but settings aren't important. [13:54] MaT-dg, is it just me or is the GUI font in ff-3.5 larger than in the 3.0 install? === qss is now known as the_archit3ct [13:54] sillyCEO, then go ahaed, that should make sure it works, regardless of the addon [13:54] sillyCEO, if you're sure what the problem is, you can also delete just the addon [13:55] but i think .mozilla is really a mess [13:55] DASPRiD: just a sec, still busy adding the repo [13:55] heollp: And the add on is in the location that JSamuel said? [13:56] yes, but some store their settings in folders in .mozilla/firefox [13:56] what are we talking about anyways? [13:56] does anyone have any idea how to record skype conversations? [13:57] Hi, just wondering what the package name for the flgrx ati drivers is. I need to be able to disable it and drop back to the open source drivers via apt, is this simple? [13:57] blankthemuffin: to revert to ati drivers, jut change your Xorg.conf to read Driver "ati" [13:57] blankthemuffin, you have to manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf there you can state which driver is in use [13:57] my root partition /dev/sda2 is full and I have another partition /dev/sda4 which I don't use at all.. can I add it to the root partition in some clever way? [13:58] lesshaste, not easily if you can't resize them [13:58] hoellp: how can I tell if I can resize them? [13:58] lesshaste, and i guess there is another partition in between [13:59] lesshaste: well,i dont think you can add, but resize probably with live cd [13:59] hoellp: http://pastebin.com/f3d915f8 [13:59] lesshaste, which makes it kinda hard, except you can backup sda3, remove both 3+4, resize 2 and make a new 3 [13:59] lesshaste, that's even worse [14:00] oh really? [14:00] tell me more [14:00] lesshaste, your sda3 is the extended, which hosts 3 other partitions [14:00] hoellp: That worked amazing. Like a fresh Firefox. Thanks you a million times, that's a great trick! [14:00] lesshaste, so you'd have to backup everything and start over partitioning, that's not really an option [14:00] sillyCEO_, you're very welcome [14:01] hoellp: :(( [14:01] hoellp: any lvm is too painful? [14:01] lesshaste, how big is your root? [14:01] lesshaste, on a running system? [14:01] lesshaste, not something i'd recommend [14:01] lesshaste, lvm on / is painful... anywhere else is good [14:01] hoellp: it's sda2 [14:01] err [14:01] no [14:02] I'm looking for a tool to directly rip the audio-stream from a youtube-video [14:02] lesshaste, if you have a regular partition on / and lvm for say /usr /home and /tmp that is ideal for a lvm configuration [14:02] hoellp: sda4 ... http://pastebin.com/f1f6a6c5f [14:02] does anyone know a tool, which does that? [14:02] <`PuTaNg> Hi everyone, I am trying to install a BNC on my server running 8.04 Hardy Heron. The "configure" script which compiles the BNC executable binary uses GNU C compiler which I have installed, but I get an error message stating: "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables" Is there anyone that can help me with this please? [14:02] lesshaste, / "should" be about 10 gig [14:02] Machtin: you can download the video and then use mencoder I think [14:03] `PuTaNg, try sudo or root [14:03] DASPRiD: I can't get the key for the repo [14:03] lesshaste: i know, but i want one tool to do both :) [14:03] hoellp: right.. mine is 6763333 but if I added sda2 it would be perfect :) [14:03] lesshaste, do you have backups? [14:03] <`PuTaNg> ah ok will try ty [14:03] hoellp: not really... I could go down that route [14:03] if there is.. if not i will need to use your method [14:03] anyone know the name of the app that send WOL packages? [14:03] MaT-dg, sudo apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com EF4186FE247510BE [14:03] lesshaste, where do you want to add sda2? [14:03] i though that's your / [14:04] hoellp: I want to add it to / [14:04] sda2 is spare [14:04] sda4 is root [14:04] sorry about this [14:04] sda5 is / [14:04] lesshaste: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:04] I can't type today [14:04] hello, I have "printer not connected" after upgrade to jaunty on /dev/lp0 - but the printer is connected and worked fine with intrepid [14:04] ah [14:04] hoellp: look at http://pastebin.com/f1f6a6c5f [14:04] It doesn't have typos :) [14:04] that makes it a lot easier [14:04] Ok, I've got a bit of an unusual problem. I had some trouble with my partitions recently, and just now recovered them. However, one of them, my home partition had a slightly larger filesystem (ext3) than it has a partition. I can mount it fine, and as far as I can tell, all the data is fine, but when I run e2fsck, it tells me that the superblock says the FS is too large, and then proceeds to work fine. http [14:04] found it, its "etherwake" [14:05] I'm going to create new partition table on HDD by Gparted. What kind of it I should choose? Are there any advanteges for each kind? I will have 3 primary partiotion with linux, windows and filetemp. === christel is now known as snooty [14:05] lesshaste, still, you'd have to cut a piece of sda4 and add to sda5 [14:05] `PuTaNg: have you installed the "build-essential" package? you'll need more than just the compiler itself. [14:05] hoellp: do you mean something else? sda4 is not part of this story [14:05] less then you can remove sda2, add it to the extended (sda3) and finally add it to sda4 [14:05] Shishire_Maiga, use resize2fs to restore the partition to the original size [14:05] <`PuTaNg> ty i will check [14:06] oh, good :D I forgot about that [14:06] lesshaste, the problem is, you can only resize partitions when they're physically beside each other [14:06] hoellp: hmm [14:06] lesshaste, so you can't just add sda2 to 5 [14:06] you can add from 4 to 5 [14:06] hoellp, with lvm you can mix and match however you choose === snooty is now known as christel [14:07] <`PuTaNg> ty sipior, no it wasnt installed :$ [14:07] please help! "printer not connected" [14:07] Titan8990_, then you should guide him through setting one up for root on a running system [14:07] DASPRiD: okay, worked :) now, wich one? firefox-3.1 package? [14:07] 3.5 [14:07] hoellp, hehe, I already advised against having root on a lvm [14:07] hoellp: I could just copy a directory over I suppose from 5 to 2 [14:07] Titan8990_: thank you very much, its all fixed now :D [14:07] lesshaste, hmm [14:07] Shishire_Maiga, excellent [14:08] hoellp: not a good idea? [14:08] lesshaste, not so easily [14:08] hoellp: why not? Can't I mount /var wherever I want? for example [14:08] I'm going to create new partition table on HDD by Gparted. What kind of it I should choose? Are there any advanteges for each kind? I will have 3 primary partiotion with linux, windows and filetemp. [14:08] lesshaste, uhh, at /var... [14:08] please help, printer not connected lp0 [14:08] lesshaste, you can [14:08] Titan8990_: ? [14:08] lesshaste, /var is an absolute path [14:08] lesshaste, at least some of the dirs [14:08] Anyone can tell me if we should expect the Firefox update (3.5) - which comes today - to appear in Jaunty's default repositories? If so, today? Later? Or will we have to wait for Ubuntu 9.10? [14:08] Titan8990_: I mean on whatever partition I want [14:09] . [14:09] lesshaste, yes [14:09] djiezes: i believe it's slated for 9.10. [14:09] lesshaste, it's just not easy to accomplish without bricking the system [14:09] please help, printer not connected lp0 - was my parallel card dropped from jaunty? [14:09] hoellp: :) [14:09] hoellp, mounting /var somewhere else - will brick the system? [14:09] lesshaste, the easiest way'd be a backup, repartitioning and reinstalling [14:09] fenn_, try: cupsenable lpt0 [14:10] hoellp: :( [14:10] unop, if you don't know how to resize partitions on an installed system [14:10] unop, chances are not so bad [14:10] hello [14:10] fenn_: are we supposed to guess all of the details, then? [14:10] in theory, could I move the partitions round using parted or similar and then add 2 to 5? [14:10] sipior: so the current FF 3.0.11 won't update itself to 3.5 in this Ubuntu release? Will they convert the current 3.5 beta package to final then? [14:10] can someone please advise me of a good program to burn .avi files to dvd, ive tried tovid and todisc with no success :-( [14:10] <`PuTaNg> Titan8990_ & sipior thanks, its all fine now :) [14:10] lesshaste, with some legwork, yes [14:10] djiezes: i've no idea. [14:11] djiezes, you should not expect major release upgrades on a released version [14:11] Pidgin is not connecting to yhoo any more - can someone confirm this? is a bug? [14:11] lesshaste, like i said, you can cut off a piece of 4 to make 5 bigger [14:11] lesshate, really, you could make a tar image of the entire filesystem, repartition and then copy all the files back over [14:11] hoellp: ok.. this seems ok [14:11] lesshaste, using whatever new partition scheme you want [14:11] woy [14:11] suwro, there is a known problem, either you need to setup a specific server, or upgrade pidgin [14:11] iam huda [14:11] lesshaste, just remember to have tar preserve perms when tarring and untarring [14:11] lesshaste, than you can also delete 2, add it to the extended partition, and then add it to sda4, so you can use the whole space [14:11] Titan8990_: I wasn't going to tar but thanks [14:11] DASPRiD: it's that shiretoko thing again.. [14:11] yes [14:11] joaopinto: i'm using the latest from repo. [14:12] MaT-dg, cause rc2 [14:12] hoellp: looks like fun with partition magic :) [14:12] lesshaste, will you do it from windows? [14:12] suwro, I am not sure the repository version will be fixed [14:12] MaT-dg, final weill be renamed.. the question is, is the gui font size for you larger as well as in ff 3.0 or other applications? [14:12] joaopinto , sipior: okay, thanks for the input, i'll see how the packages evolve tomorrow & probably look for a repo that offers 3.5 then. [14:12] i'd recommend a livecd [14:12] joaopinto: where can I find more info about this problem? [14:12] lesshaste, you MUST use tar unless you are backing up to linux partition [14:12] DASPRiD: oh, anyway, it still has the same problems... [14:12] hoellp: I was going to make a partition magic boot disk [14:12] lesshaste, it you made a file backup to say, FAT32, you will lose all UNIX perms [14:12] MaT-dg, which? [14:12] lesshaste, unless its archived [14:12] lesshaste, good idea, there is also a gparted iso which is pretty small [14:13] Titan8990_: I am not doing that but don't worry [14:13] DASPRiD: but the font is no different from 3.0 here [14:13] hoellp: thanks for your help [14:13] suwro, search on launchpad, it should be reported there [14:13] !launchpad | suwro [14:13] suwro: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [14:13] MaT-dg, then thats just me :) [14:13] thank you [14:13] lesshaste, sure, just ask if you have some more questions [14:13] lesshaste, and tripplecheck everything [14:14] lesshaste, and if everything goes wrong, get yourself a copy of testdisk [14:14] very small, very powerfull [14:14] thanks [14:14] hey guys, i keep getting unclean shut downs over and over [14:14] can anyone tell how to find the desktop switcher in KDE 4.2 [14:15] lesshaste, another thing, make / big enough for the next 10 years [14:15] i have ubuntu 9.04 [14:15] lesshaste, i like to go with 15-20 gb [14:15] DASPRiD: problems at first sight > back forward does not work, clicking on no-scipt plugin icon in statusbar doen not react, weave addon doesn't sign in [14:15] I'm going to create new partition table on HDD by Gparted. What kind of it I should choose? Are there any advanteges for each kind? I will have 3 primary partiotion with linux, windows and filetemp. [14:15] some script I'm hacking is using "kfmclient openURL some_url" to open the url in the default browser, and it's not working on my box -- is there another command that's installed on *most* linux distros that can handle this? [14:16] hoellp: thanks.... [14:16] crankharder: ##linux would be a better place to ask for cross-distro compatibility [14:16] i keep getting unclean shut downs on reboot or just plain shut down. it never did that before. i uninstalled seamonkey and opera and i dont know what is causing my unclean shut downs now. [14:16] crankharder: you can try "gnome-open" [14:16] those 2 programs were the last 2 installed [14:16] can someone tell me a good prog to burn .avi files to dvd, tried tovid and todisc no good [14:16] crankharder, you can check if it's gnome or kde [14:17] crankharder, for kde it's kfmclient, for gnome gnome-open [14:17] crankharder, but you can try xdg-browser(?) as well i think [14:17] MaT-dg, hm, the buttons work here [14:17] crankharder, xdg-open url === ninix` is now known as ninix [14:17] joaopinto, ah, y, right [14:17] MaT-dg, DASPRiD: fyi, the versions of 3.5 in Jaunty are betas, even the version in Karmic is RC2. [14:18] T|-|e_SLiDeR, you can add "pager" as a widget to the KDE toolbar. [14:18] crankharder, that covers lsb-conform distros [14:18] picca, i'm using the rc2 from the mozilla daily ppa [14:18] * Pici [14:18] jamiewan: ,do you just want it so it will play in any DVD player [14:18] jetblast: even I suffered the same problem , but after updating it all went off... is your system up to date? [14:18] DASPRiD: grayed out all the time, togheter woth the reload end stop button. Also mouse side buttons don't work [14:18] MaT-dg, well not here [14:18] must have something to do with a plugin of you or so [14:18] gangil: yes, i installed some security updates and then all of a sudden, my computer started doing it === petllama_away is now known as petllama [14:19] T|-|_slider: yes mate [14:19] there is one called DeVeDe [14:19] * gangil doesnt know the cause of the problem :(, but his problem solved after recent updates :D [14:20] thanx everyone [14:20] crankharder: you are welcome :) [14:20] #connect [14:21] tried that also, ive got quiet a few installed but none seem to work, i have good success disc to disc burn with k9copy but thats a\ll i can manage [14:21] How can I change the master password of my keyring? [14:21] so whats it doing wrong [14:21] just6 says it cant open disc [14:22] hi, how can I put together files produced by split command? [14:22] I changed the user password and now it keeps asking for the (previous) password [14:22] when an applications wants to access the key ring [14:22] hi, does anyone is familiar with raid arrays rebuild here ? [14:23] Hi all. Wondering if tehre is anyone here who more or less officially deals with Ruby under Ubuntu? I may have found a bug in Ubuntu's build of Ruby (because it odesn't appear in Debian or Gentoo). [14:23] anyone know where I could sign mark@pavprop.com up for copious amounts of spam? [14:23] got to go :( see you later [14:23] maxownz: not here. [14:23] jamiewan: did you add the extra repositories [14:24] maxownz, this not the place for that. [14:24] Yes all installed as far as i can see [14:24] Pistos, www.launchpad.net is the way to go [14:24] connect [14:24] hello [14:24] hello, i deleted a folder from an additional mounted drive and even removed from the trash, is there a chance i can recover this folder? [14:24] DASPRiD: then it's quite useless for me, I need my plugins :) Also the most important reason for me to have 3.5 (except for the new engines) is compatibility for the weave addon... wich still doesn't work [14:24] hello, printer problem solved by adding "parport_pc" to /etc/modules and rebooting [14:24] hoellp: I tried there, but never got the registration e-mail [to my spam-protecting email proxy service]. [14:24] anyone know how to set datetime from terminal without authentication? [14:24] hoellp: But I'll try again. [14:25] agey: You cannot, why do you need to be able to do that? [14:25] T|-|e_slider: hell your nick is hard to type, yep all installed i'm sure [14:25] !tab | jamiewan [14:25] jamiewan: You can use for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. [14:25] hoellp: Thank you for your response. [14:25] smiles [14:25] can anyone tell me what telnet is and why they are floating through my pc?<<<<< [14:25] Pistos, this is just usersupport here [14:25] hoellp: Okay, thanks. [14:25] is there a fix for the eduroam bug in gnome network manager in ubuntu? [14:25] Pistos, but you can try #ubuntu-dev, but it's not so easy to get a hold on someone [14:26] hello, i deleted a folder from an additional mounted drive and even removed from the trash, is there a chance i can recover this folder? [14:26] hoellp: Okay, I will do that, thanks! [14:26] hossam, you can try testdisk for example [14:27] DASPRiD: besides, now 3.5 is fully released today it won't take ages for the repo's to update I guess? [14:27] hoellp, i read that somewhere else, i ran it and it asked me whether i should have tried all the disk, or unallocated space [14:27] is there any way to have different pictures on each desktop [14:27] hoellp, when choosing the whole disk that would have taken 33 hours or something, would the folder be found in unallocated space now? [14:28] sorry, I was lost connection [14:28] hi all [14:28] hossam, probably not [14:28] hossam, you should check the partition where the file was [14:28] hoellp, so should i just let it run the recovery for 33 hours and hope it will find the directory? and will the directory structure be maintained? [14:28] i1ve problem.when ubuntu boots up 'panic kernel' message appears [14:28] MaT-dg, afaik no 3.5 before 9.10 in the official repos [14:29] hoellp, i let it begin and it just created a compressed file [14:29] T|-|e_SLiDeR__: yes, if u have KDE u can do it nativly I heard. In gnome u have to disable nautilus drawning the desktop and use the compiz wallpaper plugin. However, disabling nautilus drawning the desktop means that u have no more icons on the desktop [14:29] hossam, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery [14:29] hoellp, will do thanks [14:29] DASPRiD: I can't believe they are going to wait until october [14:30] MaT-dg, i think they will === GreatWizard is now known as Great [14:30] DASPRiD, but you can still install ff3.5 manually when it's released [14:30] not sure what you mean MaT-dg [14:30] and there probably will be a PPA for it [14:30] hoellp, right [14:30] hoellp, there already is [14:30] the mozilla daily ppa [14:30] T|-|e_SLiDeR__: are u using gnome? [14:31] hi people! how do you set a specific encoding in a terminal? [14:32] hoellp: just hope that they have 64bit source to then.. couln't find it for the beta's/rc's [14:32] set SMTH=utf8 === olivier is now known as Guest24779 [14:32] MaT-dg, there is already a 64bit in karmic [14:32] but dont remember what that SMTH was =) [14:32] Hi there. does someone know how to build a custom ubuntu install CD ? [14:32] MaT-dg, so there probably will be one for jaunty too [14:33] Built from an actual config [14:33] is some tool that in easy way for noobs can restore grub in gnome? [14:33] Guest24779, search for remastersys please [14:33] sorry some=any [14:34] Guest24779, look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization [14:34] Guest24779, there is also uck which is specific to ubuntu [14:36] ubuntu, read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows please [14:37] which is kinda long ;) [14:37] The fonts in the Ubuntu netbook launcher are rather unreadable. Is there a way to adjust the font gamma? === rmatte_ is now known as rmatte [14:42] hi [14:42] anybody there ? [14:42] bharath, hi. [14:42] hello [14:42] nive to meet u bob [14:42] *nice [14:43] bharath, what's going on? [14:43] nothing [14:43] jus checked in [14:43] wat ya doing ? [14:43] wer r u from bob ? [14:43] Hello! On a minimal Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64, I am seeing a high CPU Load of 1.00 (pegging one of my four cores) on an otherwise-idle system, and the only processes that occasionally appear on top are md2_raid5 and md2_resync. Is it a bug that these processes are so busy on a completely idle system that is only running core services and SSH? [14:43] bharath, waiting for a tech question. nhf. but this is not a social channel. [14:44] Is there a tool that could monitor my mobile broadband connection so that I can keep track of my usage? [14:44] is der any editor i can use to write my c++ codes [14:44] ? [14:44] n i wanna learn embedded c++ ? [14:44] bharath: use gedit [14:45] allquixotic: you're running raid5? [14:45] can i use gcc to compile my embedded c++codes ? [14:45] mhall119, correct [14:45] hello to all :) [14:46] bharath: you can use any edit, gedit is light and non-fancy, or you can get Eclipse and the CDT [14:46] mhall119, I'm a bit puzzled as to why the software RAID should be doing _any_ kind of disk I/O when there aren't any files being written to or read from. `lsof` shows only a few idle daemon sockets. [14:46] how do I modify text files via terminal? [14:46] when i try to use chroot command appears message 'unable to run command `bin/bash':no such file or directory' [14:46] dAnon: vi [14:46] or gedit if you've got a desktop running [14:46] dAnon, or gedit or nano [14:46] thanks ! [14:47] how do I form the command to use gedit to edit certain file?

[14:47] dAnon: gedit "file" will do [14:47] Hey guys, I have a D-Link dwa-130c wireless usb adaptor and I'm trying to install it with this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper It says to download the appropriate files but I'm not quite sure how to do that.. Could somebody point me in the right direction? [14:47] dAnon, use "gedit [file]" [14:47] dAnon: gedit file [14:48] cuz the ebooks says cross compilers [14:48] all [14:48] bharath: you'd need to ask the maintainers of the embedded code you'll be working on [14:48] Z-bob: cheers I will have a look at it later I gotta run at the minute, cheers mate :) [14:48] thx a lot [14:48] dAnon: when in doubt, run "man " for more info [14:48] tried it earlier but for some reason didn't work [14:49] Paddy_EIRE, that's not the perfect tutorial, but it's a start. cheers [14:49] thx I'll remember [14:49] thanks [14:50] hello everyone [14:50] how to escape that man help [14:50] typed man cat [14:50] hit "q" [14:50] dAnon, "q" [14:51] ok [14:52] Anyone know where can I sell my tiny Koolu Linux boxes?

[14:53] sillyCEO: I've seen people selling rebranded classmate PCs on target.com and sears.com [14:53] cyberghoser1 is there any noisy? [14:53] I have a question?, I 've had some issues with flash movies in hulu, I updated to the current flash from adobe by going to their site. still had some issues. then I rebuilt my kernel with pentium4 optimizations. I wish to continue to tweak the kernel, but I installed as a deb. how can I rebuild the kernel each time without errors? using deb or not? [14:53] sillyCEO: are these manufactured or refurbished boxes? [14:53] sillyCEO, Ebay. this is not ebay. [14:53] ubuntuyo_, good, a little bit [14:53] cyberghoser1 ok. thanks for your answer. [14:53] tw3ak, try flash 9 maybe? [14:54] I'm currently using kernel 2.6.30 [14:54] cyber that was not my question [14:54] Z-bob: yes I know :) I was hoping there's a good Linux hardware swap site somewhere. [14:54] sillyCEO: not that I know of [14:54] I'm using the latest flash from adobe the flash problem is fixed [14:54] tw3ak, sorry dude just waked up :) :P [14:54] cyberghoser1 can i Know what do you use a soundcard.? [14:54] mhall119: Manufactured. 500Mhz little black boxes. [14:54] I want to further customize my kernel as the first change made such a great fix [14:55] sillyCEO: then you should try target.com and sears.com [14:55] oi [14:55] mhall119: OK, thanks! [14:55] or team up with someone like system76 [14:55] hi [14:55] tw3ak any problem in flash? [14:55] ubuntuyo_, intel one [14:55] nope [14:55] ubuntuyo_, intergrated [14:55] ok, i am running jaunty on a acer aspire one AOA 150, the only problem i am having is that my sound isnt working. its currently set to HDA intel ( alsa mixer ) [14:55] cyberghoser1 on board? [14:55] ubuntuyo_, yeap [14:55] ou esta com poblema com o java [14:55] At setup i told ubuntu that i want to automaticaly log in. But now i dont, is there anyway to change it? [14:55] fixed it with pentium4 opts in kernel recompile and getting tgz from macromedia [14:56] bananamuffin: have you tried OSS? [14:56] ubuntu [14:56] nope, where do i find that [14:56] dva5912: System0>Administration->Login Window->Security [14:56] hey all [14:57] dva5912 it's easy on ubuntu. [14:57] alguem de brazilian [14:57] ? [14:57] bananamuffin: System->Preferences->Sound->Playback Device [14:57] lol nvm mhall lol [14:57] my movies run better with the opts , I want to continue to optimize my kernel... I compiled and installed as a deb if I want to recompile the same kernel again do I just do the same or will the deb package have a problem reiiinstalling the same kernel with slight changes? [14:57] anyone knows how i can get this http://dirac.org/linux/gdb/ into a file so i can read it offline? [14:57] in Gnome in Jaunty is there: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution [14:57] i think my resoloution is to small for ubuntu. The close button isnt visible. [14:57] and i cant get higher resolutions i dont think [14:57] ubuntu can run 800x600 [14:58] dva5912: use alt + drag to allow you to click anywhere [14:58] ActionParsnip: it's called "Display" now, not "Screen Resolution" [14:58] ActionParsnip: i can drag it but not just up [14:58] dva5912: alt+F7 will let you move the window around [14:58] mhall119: thanks, i dont use gnome and have someone asking :) [14:58] can I reinstall an already installed .deb file? [14:59] alt f7 did it. Thanks! [14:59] tw3ak: I think so, but you might want to do your own versioning on the debs you're making [14:59] now so with that. Next question how can i force this thing into higher resolutions? [14:59] dva5912: it will try to auto-detect the capabilities of your video card and monitor [14:59] im not too enirely fond of the 1024X800 [15:00] dva5912: are you the one with the Aspire One? [15:00] yes but ive read that this thing can get up to 1480 [15:00] no dell latitude d610 [15:00] tw3ak: you could use the --force-all option in dpkg. there may be a better way [15:00] mhall119: ^ [15:00] in that case you may need to edit xorg.conf with the specific modeline if it's not being autodetected [15:00] hey there. [15:00] i am the one with the aspire one [15:00] tw3ak: you could always, sudo dpkg -rP ; sudo dpkg -i ./; sudo apt-get -f install [15:00] <[blackb]> salve [15:01] it may be that it is capable of 1480, but the hardware doesn't advertise that fact [15:01] is there a good howto "install ubuntu on multiple machines at once - conveniently"? [15:01] I love a UBUNTU.. [15:01] riot: use multiple CDs? [15:01] mhall119: i thought their was a graphical way of changing it? i remember doing it to my desktop and about broke it [15:01] dva5912: there might be, but not in the default install [15:01] How many people use the Ubuntu of the world? [15:02] some cards come with their own configuration programs, like nvidia [15:02] i switch to OSS mixer for my sound and it somewhat works i just get a buzzing noisse tho [15:02] looks like im editing xorg then [15:02] mhall119: not convenient ;) i want those several boxes to be all the same. So its stupid to repeat all the same stuff dozens of times. [15:02] ubuntuyo_: 10,587,892.3 [15:02] wow [15:02] riot: t [15:02] I'm using a ubuntu in Korea. korea web is suck.. [15:03] ubuntuyo_: I just made that number up [15:03] Action I want to build and test new kernels I started with old config changed the cpu to pentium4 and made sure my ethernet card was good and saved and exited. that way I knew it would work I installed as deb now I want to get nasty and really trim down if I install the new deb would this cause a problem? [15:03] ubuntuyo_: nobody knows how many there are [15:03] too many active - x in here. [15:03] ? [15:03] riot: are the boxes all identical hardware? [15:03] um wow. im into the xorg config file but their is NOTHING about screen resolutions [15:03] that might be the problem [15:03] Ubuntuyo: Many [15:03] mhall119: yep. [15:03] mhall119: all ibm thinkpads with network. [15:03] dva5912: not anymore, it's all auto-detected on startup these days [15:03] thanks [15:04] but you can still add them in [15:04] hello, does anyone know the difference between the gnome-terminal and the normal terminal ? [15:04] riot: you can install on one then dd the disk image to all the others [15:04] mhall119: i must still be in the 6.06 mind state then [15:04] mhall119: hmm, not a bad idea :) [15:04] there's other tools, like ghost, that work better than dd, but I don't recall the names [15:04] lol i still got the 6.06 cd too [15:04] so what do i do if my sound isnt worker after switching to the (oss mixer ) [15:04] I love a Blender 3d too.. [15:04] bananamuffin: try ESD and Pulse [15:04] mhall119: there's no easy way to use pxe or something alike? [15:05] kill the pulsaudio. [15:05] why don't you kill the pulsaudio on system. [15:05] which log tells me what username and pwd someone tried when trying to log into SSH? [15:05] bananamuffin: also, check the volume level, I spent an hour once troubleshooting a sound card before I realized the volume on th speakers was turned down [15:05] riot: pxe is never the easy way [15:05] riot: you could use pxe to load the installer, but I don't know of anything pre-built to do that for you [15:06] n0gearII: /var/log/auth.log. won't show the password, though. [15:06] How to twinview with 2 or more computers? setup would look something like this: main pc with a large monitor + 1-2 laptops. I'd like to be able to drag a window to the right of the screen and it shall pop up on one of the laptops. Is this possible? [15:06] aleady 11pm. goodbye all. [15:06] Roland123: it should be plug-and-play these days [15:06] sipior: yep i checked that all ready [15:06] i get a buzzing sound with all the different types and ESD isnt in there [15:06] Hello! I have a 5g (2005) classic iPod and I used my netbook (with Windows) to sync music on it till now but for particular reason I switched to linux on it as well. The problem is that when I plug the iPod into my machine nothing happens. No iPod icon on desktop. Can someone help me with this please? [15:06] oh wait, across different boxes? === andi is now known as Guest13739 [15:07] mhall119: yes different boxes [15:07] This happens with my station as well... [15:07] Roland123: no way to do that right now [15:07] Roland123: the best you can get is xmove, which lets you send a window to a different box [15:07] but I've never played with that === Guest13739 is now known as kambuna-delgado [15:07] n0gearII: if you're looking for an earlier login, check the gzipped versions of the file in the same directory. [15:07] I created a Brainstorm idea to do what you want though [15:07] this thing has an ATI in it. but no drivers are being used. should i install some drivers and see if it gets higher res? [15:08] dva5912: if you get a desktop, there are drivers being used [15:08] Roland123, try (quick)synergy, that allows you to use one kb/mouse on every pc connected [15:08] Roland123, you can't drag windows over though [15:08] Roland123: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/19514/ vote it up if you like it [15:09] hi [15:09] so how do i specify new resolutions mhall119 [15:09] i've got an NTFS partition on my external HD, i can mount it but gparted doesn't see that partition [15:09] I installed firefox 3.5 from an PPA repo and the fonts don't seem to render correctly as in FF 3.0.11 ... I think ubunut-specific font rendering settings aren't applied? [15:10] dva5912: google Xorg modlines [15:10] you'll need to scan your hardware to see what settings you can use [15:10] dva5912, the resolution is (mostly) a problem of monitor settings [15:11] dva5912, you can still specify the specs in xorg.conf if you have a CRT [15:11] mhall119: but is it possible to connect to one of the available virtual desktops? [15:11] dva5912: where did you read that it can go up to 1480? Perhaps it meant with an external monitor, the video card can produce that, but the built-in screen may not [15:11] hoellp,mhall119 the way that i was supposed to get hier res was through xsga i think thats what it was. [15:11] Roland123: xmove is an X11 server that lets you move windows from one host to another [15:12] that's about the best that is available right now [15:12] dva5912, what kind of machine do you have? [15:12] typically a window spends it's whole live on the X display it started on [15:12] hoellp: notebook [15:12] dva5912, and you don't get the native resolution on the builtin screen? [15:13] acording to dell the native is teh 1024 but i want a bigger res. Im used to that. [15:13] hoellp: ^ [15:13] dva5912, that won't do you much good on an lcd [15:14] Hi there guys whats best way to mount a encrypted harddrive [15:14] dva5912: the LCD probably only does 1024x800 [15:14] hey guys [15:14] can i get someones help? [15:14] Axz: what encryption? [15:14] mhall119: but what about the reports of the 4*** resolutions through that thing [15:14] sadfa: ask and ye might recieve [15:15] dva5912, check xrandr in the terminal to see which resolutions are supported [15:15] mhall119, dunnp i encrypted it on installation of OpenSuse 11.1 [15:15] sadfa, just throw out your question. [15:15] dva5912: like I said, the video card might be capable of that if connected to an external monitor [15:15] dva5912, that's the capabilities of the graphics card and is for an external monitor...

[15:34] ok [15:34] I've seen the website already [15:34] I don't think Remote Desktop can do that with uPnP [15:34] rudolf: System->Preferences->Sound, try changing the playback device [15:34] i post my problem there ok [15:34] sometimes one works when another doesn't [15:34] ok.wait a.

[15:37] dva5912: nope [15:37] mhall119: tried b4 but too many things bugging me , so i uninstall already , ok , i will try. thanks [15:38] apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client php5-mysql [15:38] I am having problems mounting an LV from my VG, says the file system must be specified, but specifying the filesystem I thought it was is not helping. Any way to check what the filesystem is on an LV? [15:38] dealing with an LVM structure, btw [15:39] any suggestion? [15:40] rudolf: check the volume controls [15:40] i've put it all to max [15:40] headphones and speakers have different volume controls [15:41] mhall119: so with that installed i can make my programing anywere right? [15:41] check the volume on each, and try changing mixers [15:41] yup [15:41] ok [15:41] I try [15:41] mhall119, is there software that can mount encrypted partitions or harddrives [15:42] Axz: yes, but you'll need to find out how it's encrypted to know what to use === chaky_ is now known as chaky [15:42] rkitect: You could use vol_id: "sudo /sbin/vol_id /dev/vg1/lv1" [15:42] mhall119, i guess default encryption [15:43] default? === Swish[\] is now known as Swish [15:44] stroyan: "unknown or non-unique volume type" [15:44] rkitect: I expected it would stick the the same story as mount told you ;-) [15:45] I had this mounted earlier today, any ideas why I would suddenly not be able to mount it or even get any information from the LV? [15:45] rkitect: It seems that you have the wrong lv or the one you have was damaged somehow. [15:45] power went out [15:45] mhall119: so that php5-cli was all i needed? [15:45] would that damage an LV? [15:45] mhall119, encryption mode is twofish256 [15:46] should be [15:46] is xetex available to ubuntu ? [15:46] mhall119: well just tryed a test document and it wants me to download it [15:46] \join #ubuntu-es [15:46] rkitect: A non-journaled filesystem might be damaged by a power failure. But I wouldn't expect that to make it unrecognizable. [15:46] ubuntu-es??? [15:46] dva5912: what? [15:47] rkitect: The best way to hurt it like that is to write to the raw volume when you thought you were writing to a file/tape. :-( [15:47] mhall119: i just tryed to exicute index.php from Firefox and it wants me to download the index.php file [15:47] stroyan: well, it's suposed to be ext3 [15:47] still...no sound... [15:47] stroyan: lol, yeah, I would have no reason to be doing that on this system [15:47] !ubuntu-es [15:47] Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-es [15:47] tried all the options [15:47] javierAndres: You want "/join" not "\join" [15:47] You could let fsck have a try at it. [15:47] ubuntu-es = ubuntu espanol [15:48] dva5912: if you want to execute PHP web pages for firefox, you'll need apache and mod_php5 [15:48] mhall119: thats what i was asking berore [15:48] dva5912: sorry, I thought you wanted to execute php scripts from the command line, not for firefox [15:48] mhall119: so i will need a full blown apache server [15:48] dva5912: yup [15:49] Hey all, I've just installed xubuntu 8.10 on an old laptop, and the GUI is... unuseful. Consoles work fine though. [15:49] mhall119: dont worry about it. I just hope that this little laptop wont get boged down too much [15:49] Any tips or pointers? [15:49] Whats Other Channels Are Avaliave in Free Node to do with ubuntu? [15:49] rkitect: If you don't have current backups, then you should consider saving off an image of the volume before trying to rescue it with fsck. [15:49] dva5912: apache isn't very heavy [15:49] TriMe: /msg alis list *ubuntu* [15:50] hi [15:50] stroyan: fsck returned ext2 but I'm getting bad superblock and magic number errors :( [15:50] mhall119: mysql can be [15:50] Torgoton: try Xubuntu instead [15:50] man fsck [15:50] lol [15:51] dva5912: what about mysql? [15:51] wrong window :/ [15:51] hello [15:51] mhall119: mysql can become pretty heavy [15:51] mhall119: Are you picking on my lack of capitalization, or did you miss that I did install Xubuntu, or are you suggesting another IRC channel? [15:52] dva5912: depends on how much data you have [15:52] Torgoton: sorry, thought you said Ubuntu [15:52] try fluxbuntu? [15:52] mhall119: Well anyway, Thanks for the help. [15:52] how do you check what number your serial (RS232) port is? [15:53] mhall119: Thanks. I think it's a driver/xorg issue because I can't even see the login prompt, so XFCE hasn't even started. [15:53] Torgoton: what do you mean by unuseful? do you mean it is broken or you dont like it [15:53] now the next thing i have. I got apache and it all installed but how do i gain access to the apache document root? [15:53] does anyone know when a firefox 3.5 package will be available? [15:53] w [15:53] moncky: It looks to be set to 640x480, and just has some big blue blocky swirls. [15:54] Torgoton: oh, then yeah, probably bad drivers [15:54] check the xorg log [15:54] To the logs! [15:54] dva5912: it defaults to /var/www [15:54] mhall119: i know that but il have no access to that [15:54] anyway,thx mhall119 [15:54] as in write anyway [15:55] that sounds like an xorg thing on the face of it [15:55] mhall119: Oh! This is after I force the vesa driver. The standard driver just gives me a full-on white screen... like stress-the-LCD kind of white. === glinsvad is now known as s032082_ [15:55] rkitect: You may get better behavior from fsck by using the option to specify and alternate superblock. But figuring out where the alternate superblocks are is not as straightforward as I would like. [15:55] Torgoton: what video card does it have? [15:56] stroyan: agreed, I think I'm just going to suck it up for now and use another partition to accomplish what I need. [15:56] h all [15:56] thanks for the help [15:56] mhall119: that direcroty is owned by root. How can i become a member of root? or is there a better way to do this? [15:56] mhall119: It's a ThinkPad 560E with a... Trident Cyber9660. [15:56] dva5912: sudo [15:56] mhall119: i have to keep doing that for every file i do? [15:57] dva5912: sudo su [15:57] dva5912: you can create a new directory and chmod it to your user id [15:57] does anyone know how to fix Grub Error 17? [15:57] Torgoton: im not about to unlock that root [15:57] I tried reinstalling ubuntu and tried reinstall grub... [15:57] mkdir /var/www/test; chown dva5912 /var/www/test [15:57] but when i tried to reinstall grub [15:57] grub> find /boot/grub/stage1 [15:57] Error 15: File not found [15:57] mhall119: ok il do that thanks for the help [15:58] replace dva5912 with your actual username [15:58] I know ;) [15:58] Torgoton: that's an S3 card? [15:58] i have problem with squid 2.6.18 ubuntu 8.04.3 server [15:58] hey guys. if i logoff from my machine, how do i get it to suspend after say, 15 minutes of inactivity WITHOUT anyone logged on [15:58] dva5912: just make sure your php files are readable by the apache process [15:58] wont make swap directory /var/cache/squid [15:59] Does anyone here know how to fix Grub????!? [15:59] error 17 [15:59] !grup | Bash_23 [15:59] Sorry, I don't know anything about grup [15:59] mhall119: No, it's a Trident. There seem to be a lot of issues with many of those chips in Linux. [15:59] Bash_23: have you asked in #grub? [15:59] Bash_23: boot with a rescue cd, and then run grub-install /dev/sda [15:59] !grub | Bash_23 [15:59] kk ill try there [15:59] if i logoff from my machine, how do i get it to suspend after say, 15 minutes of inactivity WITHOUT anyone logged on? [16:00] Torgoton: yeah, you may be in for a fight on that one [16:00] Torgoton: have you tried using kernel framebuffer? [16:00] hello? [16:00] hello! I saw the driver "xserver-xorg-video-intel" beeing updated a few minutes ago and wondered for what it is used. I'm using an ATI-Card; shouldn't the "xserver-xorg-video-ati/radeon/radoenhd" driver been installed? [16:00] mhall119: So, I had read that vesa works, but no such luck for me. Haven't tried fb. Got a URL for that handy? [16:00] Rudd-O: if nobody answers, that usually means nobody here knows [16:01] Torgoton: nope, but if you dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg it should ask if you want to use it or not [16:02] hei [16:02] :D [16:02] ko sepi banget [16:02] 5190 [16:02] how do you force an application running in wine to close? [16:02] mhall119, so what application or waydo you recommand to mount the partition? [16:02] Torgoton: I think the xorg.conf option is "UseFBDev" [16:02] mhall119: Thanks. Trying. (And the Xorg log file is verbose. oeyh) [16:02] Axz: sorry, I don't know much about disk encryption [16:02] Axz, i usually force close wine [16:02] i have MacPro, have 2 hdd, first hdd i have Mac OS X guid partition, secound hdd, i have windows vista+ubuntu, grub don't add line Mac OS X in bootloader [16:02] Axz: have you tried the OpenSuse channels or forums? === RealMooKow is now known as MooKow [16:03] cyberghoser1, what do you mean? [16:03] wrong [16:03] cyberghoser1, i guess you were talking to me [16:03] Axz, wrong name sorry :P [16:03] MK13, yes [16:03] too lazy [16:03] where i can find vnc configuration in ubuntu? [16:03] ubuntu grub don't load darwin [16:03] MK13: for any application, just press alt+f2 and typ xkill, then click the window, although you'll probably close wine when you try that on a wine app [16:04] No is is active one the grub channel :( [16:04] nukedclx: server or client? [16:04] server [16:04] !grub > Bash_23 [16:04] Bash_23, please see my private message [16:04] is there a problem [16:04] !grub [16:04] GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto [16:05] that vnc reads my inputs but dont show any visual effect ;o [16:05] just screen when i connected [16:05] nukedclx: vino or some other server? [16:05] vnc [16:05] my friend said "i run builtin remote desktop sharing" [16:06] nukedclx, system>preferences>remote desktop has some settings [16:06] hi [16:06] i figured out its vnc [16:06] i have only ssh access [16:06] aw i just missed him [16:06] looking in /etc but so confused [16:06] hello i am trying to run cron in a specify path.. is it posisble? [16:06] hi, can help me with squid [16:07] for example i want the execute php myscript.php in /var/www/ every 5 minute [16:07] nukedclx: are you using compiz on the host? [16:07] nukedclx: are you starting the vnc server from the command line? [16:07] hes started vnc [16:07] fastputty: you can have it execute any file [16:07] Maybe someone can answer this: There's xnest and XDCMP to start a completely new session remotely, or vino/vinagre/vnc for taking over an existing local session, but is there anything like windows Terminal Services which allows you to start a new session and "disconnect" so that it stays running in the background? Like XDCMP with nohup somehow? [16:07] i think he done that by gui or something [16:07] hes a bit newb [16:08] ;/ [16:08] nukedclx: ah, have him try disabling compiz if it's running [16:08] ok [16:08] mhall119: how to make that command : "php myscrip.php" to be execute in /var/www/ ? === acerna is now known as MoltenBobcat [16:08] dva5912: Do you have that project done for me?

[16:08] no [16:08] hi [16:08] metalsilo: I am currently in the process of getting set up. the ETA is still active. [16:09] mhall119: for multiple users or for a specific X session? [16:09] nukedclx: metacity --replace [16:09] mbeierl: you can start a new X display for the VNC session, and keep it going after you disconnect [16:09] mhall119, [16:09] No protocol specified [16:09] Błąd menedżera okien: Unable to open X display :0.0 [16:10] nukedclx: he'll need to do that [16:10] dva5912: You know the rules. And i dont think you will have it done by the end of the week. You dont get paid until its finished on a disk in my hands [16:10] or you can try: DISPLAY=:0 metacity --replace [16:10] i set DISPPLAY to :0.0 [16:10] oh [16:10] someone could tell me how to execute in the cron "php /var/www/myscript.php" in the folder /test/ ? [16:10] mhall119: googling vncserver now... don't recall this quite being as straightforward as that... thanks! [16:10] same err [16:10] fastputty: add /usr/bin/php /var/www/myscript.php [16:11] metalsilo: Dont remind me. Im working on it ok?! [16:11] mbeierl: if you want the session accessible from teh console, it's not as straight forward [16:11] eh, and now hes gone [16:11] nukedclx: I think you'll have to get him to disable compiz [16:11] but thanks, i have now a point [16:11] slinq: it wont be execute in /test/ folder [16:11] whats wrong [16:11] can anyone help me pls i cant type a pipe sigen sorry for my bad english [16:12] fastputty: you mean you want to change the working directory? [16:12] mhall119: no I'm thinking like what tsm for windows does where you have a client that does the initial connect and you get a "login" screen or resume your current session [16:12] HI. I cant get .mov to play images... i installed libquicktime* but it didnt work. Any one experienced this problem? [16:12] sling: changing where it will be executed [16:12] I installed Ubuntu 8.10 on a new partition, but now Grub doesn't show my Ubuntu 9.04 install. How can I add 9.04 as an option to my Grub menu? [16:12] nukedclx: VNC uses the XDamage extension to only send changed portions of the screen across, but compiz doesn't work that way, it doesn't damage screen regions, so the default vnc setup wouldn't know to redraw anything [16:12] fastputty: that's called the working directory [16:12] fastputty: http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.chdir.php [16:12] slinq : OK ;P [16:13] mbeierl: Xvnc is an X extension that shares the default display over VNC [16:13] slinq: we cannot specify it in crontab?? [16:13] mhall119: I see - that's what I thought for the vnc server: it's started as the specific user and waits for that user to connect, not as arbitrary user [16:14] fastputty: you'll need to have cron execute: cd /test; php /var/www/myscript.php [16:14] i accidentaly removed the folder view in which you can enter subfolders.. i tried to add another one.. but if i click a folder there it opens dolphin, instead of opening the folder in the folder view. [16:14] mhall119: thanks you! [16:14] how can i get that back? [16:15] Machtin, #kubuntu may have better answers [16:15] mhall119: but, there again, it's the default console, not a remote session that can be used at the same time as others. Say I want user1 and user2 to both be able to log in remotely and disconnect/resume sessions independently. To make it more complicated, user1 and user2 can be any arbitrary user on the system [16:15] <|newbie|> ciao [16:16] mbeierl: I'm not entirely sure how to do that with VNC [16:16] bastidrazor: word, thanks. [16:17] mhall119: that's just it - I cannot actually find a suitable replacement for Microsoft's terminal service manager under linux and I am really baffled that Microsoft can make their OS more multi-user usable than the Linux community can. I'm actually stumped here [16:17] mbeierl: XDMCP can probably do what you want [16:18] mhall119: close, but if the connection drops, XDMCP completely closes the session - hard [16:18] also, VNC is not a terminal server [16:18] mhall119: that's why I started the question the way I did. [16:19] mhall119, multi-user, and microsoft don't belong in the same sentence or paragraph [16:19] terminal sever is actually an excellent piece of software [16:19] baba_b00ie: that's a rediculous statement terminal services is amazing [16:19] provided you can afford it [16:19] mbeierl: have you seen http://linuxreviews.org/howtos/xvnc/ ? [16:20] can anyone tell me why i can type pipe ? === DaNkaTa`prom is now known as DaNkaTa` [16:20] MoltenBobcat, ms-ts is good.. i'm more refrerring to the O/S design level. [16:20] baba_b00ie: it was me, not mhall119 who said MS and multi user was better under Windows Terminal Services than anything I have yet to find under Linux. If you can refute that I would be so very happy. It's a sad admission for me right now [16:21] anybody knows how to setup custom SSH keys on freenx server and client??? [16:21] mhall119: looking at it now... [16:21] although vista, and the 2k3/2k8 servers have greatly improved since NT 3x-4x [16:21] where ubuntu normally looking for firmwares when loading a module? [16:21] baba_b00ie: yeah they are getting better my major beefs revolve around CALS and pricing [16:22] Unfortuantely we are a a microsoft shop [16:22] can anyone tell me why i cant type pipe character ? [16:22] MoltenBobcat, you said that right brother ;) [16:22] acidstorm: How are you trying to type it? [16:22] acidstorm, type a pipe where? on irc, cli ?

[16:22] acidstorm: maybe the keyboard layout changed? Try to type an "m" or something [16:22] what password would it be asking me? [16:23] mbeierl: I'm not sure if you can make that setup keep a session alive after a disconnect and have the user re-connect to it again later [16:23] i tried my user password no success [16:23] unix3: you should of set it when you first setup yoru machine [16:23] !who [16:23] As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [16:23] i cant type a pipe character everywhere [16:23] mhall119: Wow. That might do it, but it's not going to be easy to streamline the client connection process :( [16:23] MoltenBobcat, hmm.. ill ask the admin for a keyring password.. ? is that the name? [16:24] os that what the installer originally prompted for? [16:24] unix3: you were probably asked for a keyring password the first time it needed to access it [16:24] and i cant type another special characters [16:24] acidstorm, check your keyboard layout, check to see if you have shift, caps or ctrl, alt keys are stuck on kb. [16:24] I installed Ubuntu 8.10 on a new partition, but now Grub doesn't show my Ubuntu 9.04 install. How can I add 9.04 as an option to my Grub menu? [16:25] sorry iḿ a newbie in ubuntu and english ^^ what u mean with kb what is that ? [16:25] unix3: yeah. that woudl be th right person to ask [16:26] ryanprior, go into the partition where you have 9.04 and copy the settings for 9.04 that you find in the file /boot/grub/menu.lst and copy those settings to the "menu.lst" on the 8.04 partition [16:26] acidstorm: What is your native language?

[16:34] mbeierl: thanks, I've heard of it before, but not really familiar [16:34] mhall119: or better yet the NoMachine (commercial but with free version) http://www.nomachine.com/select-package.php?os=linux&id=1 [16:34] ice109: you could use talk [16:34] I think that' swhat it was called [16:34] I build a my own kernel module, "a.ko" and copied it to /lib/modules/`uname -r`/extra directory.. When I modprobe a, I got "Module a not found". any idea? [16:35] ice109: 'write' [16:35] ice109: you can use the write command to send lines from one tty to another [16:35] insmod maybe? [16:35] the other account isn't using a terminal [16:35] it's using a gui [16:35] jasonlife: have you run depmod? [16:35] yeah talk is more of an ongoing chat [16:35] mhall119: insmod works.. but I want to make it loaded automatically [16:35] sipior: nope [16:35] do I need to that? [16:35] is there a way to pop up a msg on the other account? [16:35] jasonlife: do that :-) [16:36] just run depmod? [16:36] and what would i do? write to myself? [16:36] jasonlife: "man depmod" [16:36] thax [16:37] ice109: yes you can write to the same user if you specify the ttyname, but if one user doesn't have a tty it won't work [16:37] hey all, I was looking for an app that would allow you to to use hotkeys to insert current date and time, anyone know of such an app? [16:37] hey how can i install firefox 3.5 on 8.10? [16:38] anyone knows know to use freeNX??? I am trying to configure custom ssh keys and dont know where to put the custom keys created on the client [16:38] cube: grab the binary from mozilla.com [16:38] sipior: you rock... thanks.. [16:38] sipior: yeah got that, and then? [16:38] jasonlife: no trouble [16:38] sipior: no package way to do that? like apt? [16:38] hi! [16:38] dulak how do i get it to pop in a remote session [16:38] i mean i ran ./firefox [16:38] how can I install plymouth in ubuntu? [16:38] but i want it instaleld [16:38] Okay [16:38] forces: You cannot. [16:39] hey, i'm getting a bit confused settting up mail on my system. i see these errors (http://pastebin.com/d5529f3e7) in my mail.err log and am not sure why [16:39] cube: you might look around to see if someone's made a repository for it. [16:39] =.= [16:39] why?? [16:39] Does anyong know the deal with Wine and mIRC ? [16:39] sipior: alright [16:39] forces: Because there is no package for it and it has not been tested as a replacement for usplash. Nor will we be using it in the future. [16:39] Donnie: why the hell do you use mIRC? [16:39] Cuz I prefer it over xchat? [16:39] ice109: it's tty to tty, if both sessions are terminals you can send messages back and forth with it. man write [16:39] I've been using it since i was 16 :x I like it. [16:40] Donnie: have you looked at winehq tos ee if there are any notes on specific things to run [16:40] dulak other account isn't in terminal [16:40] MoltenBobcat: dude [16:40] I've looked [16:40] Like [16:40] saliak: do you not have postfix (or some other MDA) installed? [16:40] i mispoke [16:40] Everywhere [16:40] ice109: so it won't work [16:40] Donnie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [16:40] But the tutorials are confusing [16:40] Donnie: It's a backstep in the way of a free operating system. [16:40] I don't get them. [16:40] dulak yes i know [16:40] Hi, I am having problems with my sound. Pulseaudio volume control displays that there is something happening I just can't hear anything. The device is a built in ATI IXP AC97. Any hints or tips? [16:40] how do i re-enable the ctrl+alt+backspace in 9.04? its really ticking me off, i use it almost constantly [16:40] lol wth >_> [16:40] saliak: beg pardon, i meant procmail. [16:40] opensuse use plymouth? [16:41] OsamaK_: er what is? [16:41] :/ [16:41] sipior: is there no simple way to install 3.5? [16:41] Donnie: ? [16:41] sipior: just like on windows - you open 3.0, go to update, and it updates [16:41] cube: downloading it from mozilla.com is pretty simple. [16:41] sipior: just like on windows - you open 3.0, go to update, and it updates [16:41] Donnie: It's a backstep in the way of a free operating system. [16:41] Oh mIRC. Er.. BUT I LIKE IT!!!!!! :| [16:41] sipior : yeah, i think so. there's a fundamental issue here, as i'm not really sure what all these different thigns do (procmail, sendmail, fetchmai, sensible-mda, whatever else might be installed) [16:41] cube: yes, you can get automatic updates, just as in windows. [16:41] Okay. So no one has any clue? :=/ [16:41] sipior : i installed it to see if it'd get rid of this error [16:41] What's the likelyhood that jaunty will get Firefox 3.5 packages? [16:42] sipior: well i cant click "Check for updates" though - its greyed out [16:42] Donnie: the whole point of GNU/Linux is to have a free operating system, by using a non-free software (no matter what) it's a bad thing and it doesn't help us all reach the goal. [16:42] cube: ah well. [16:42] sipior: hmm? [16:42] which is the mozilla client for mail Im and calendar? [16:42] zomg nnnnnnnouuuuu [16:42] but but [16:42] MIRCCCCCC [16:42] >=| [16:42] Donnie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [16:42] Donnie: stop. [16:42] saliak: how exactly have you set up your mail system? [16:42] who cares if it's not free [16:42] I heard about it, but can't recall the name :( [16:42] Exactly MoltenBobcat [16:42] he likes it [16:42] >_> [16:42] sipior : i'm trying to install RT on this system and would like it to send/recieve email from the gmail servers for my domail. i got the incoming email to work using fetchmail [16:42] I'm a she >.> [16:42] forces: This isn't OpenSuse, this is Ubuntu. [16:42] shelikes it [16:43] anyone know how to write a shell script that when called inserts the date and time in whatever application you are working in? [16:43] No way, it's the internet, where guys are guys, girls are guys, and underage girls are fbi. [16:43] saliak: RT? [16:43] Donnie: you may be askin in the wrong place, try #wine or if mIRC has a user forum try their [16:43] Donnie: I gave up programming language I have been working on for years in sake of freedom. It's not a stupid "mIRC" :) [16:43] rofl @ Dulak [16:43] I know, but I want a splash like opensuse [16:43] Dulak: hahaha [16:43] sipior : so, honestly, i'm not sure. i know i have fetchmail configured so when it runs, it successfully pulls down new emails from my gmail pop box and passes them to rt-mailgate to add them to the database [16:43] so, if opensuse use plymouth I need to install plymouth [16:43] :D [16:43] sipior : RT = RequestTracker [16:43] OsamaK_: that's great but you shouldn't expect everyone to adopt the same ideals as you just because they like linux too [16:44] dulak basically my friend is loggedo onto my account on another computer and im logged in through ssh [16:44] I've been kicked from channel wine as it's an "invite channel" [16:44] :| [16:44] Donnie: The channel name is #winehq [16:44] dulak and i want to send him a msg or something or pop open a file [16:44] MoltenBobcat: I just remain them. [16:44] OsamaK_: don't call mIRC stewpid :x [16:44] is there a way to execute something as a remote command via ssh where the command has a $ in it? I'm trying to pipe something through awk '{print $1}' and this doesn't appear to work through an ssh remote command [16:44] Donnie: are you ok? [16:44] oh Pici ty. [16:44] MoltenBobcat: *remind [16:44] forces: You're welcome to try to install it yourself, but there is no package for it. Theres also a high probability that this will break your install. [16:44] sipior : but whenever i comment or RT tires to send email out, it seems like it collects in /var/spool/mqueue [16:45] how do i re-enable the ctrl+alt+backspace in 9.04? [16:45] I've tried escaping with \ with no luck === homo is now known as hello [16:45] !dontzap | Zopiac [16:45] Zopiac: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. [16:45] :O [16:45] ice109: you can't afaik, X uses a token so users can't cross sessions [16:45] saliak: i see. you'll need a Mail Transfer Agent (like postfix) to send outgoing mail. [16:45] karmic will come with plymouth? === hello is now known as Guest9496 [16:45] Donnie: It's too restricted, too useless, you gave your rights in seek of a program? no thanks. === Guest9496 is now known as homo [16:45] lol is it.... [16:45] =/ i find it so much more easier to use than xchat. [16:46] a question i'm sure lots have asked. tried googling for it without much answer. is firefox 3.5 coming to current ubuntus? (like jaunty ) [16:46] anyone know how to write a shell script that when called inserts the date and time in whatever application you are working in? === xip|comiendo is now known as x-ip [16:46] Donnie: then learn, it won't take you more than 15 minutes to figure about the basis. [16:46] erUSUL: it didn't work... [16:46] brandonban6: perhaps xmacrokeys-play from the xmacro plugin [16:46] saliak: normally, fetchmail grabs the remote mail, and sends it to the MTA on the local system (postfix or sendmail or qmail &cet.) postfix then can deliver that mail directly to a mailbox, or use an intermediary like procmail to do the delivery. [16:47] brandonban6: perhaps xmacrokeys-play from the xmacro package [16:47] dulak any ideas then [16:47] Anyone know why a "command not found" would show up when calling logrotate? [16:47] ? === marcelo is now known as DemoM [16:47] i tried from a regular user & from sudo [16:47] all: from my question earlier. I get to take back what I said about MS Terminal Services being better than competing Linux technologies. NoMachine's NX Server and Client provide the same functionality - free of charge! Now to convince the powers that be to include them in the partner or restricted repositories somehow so that Ubuntu in general can be seen as a viable replacement for MSTS. [16:47] OsamaK_: er i HAVE learned. but i don't like the look of it :x [16:47] Donnie: try other IRC programs. [16:47] mbeierl: nomachine.com has debs that work [16:48] how can i close an established connection from the terminal? [16:48] mbeierl: they're quite good [16:48] mbeierl: also look into freenx [16:48] :| none of them'll let me use colorrr >=| [16:48] mbeierl: nice! thanks for sharing [16:48] sipior : interesting. so in my fetchmailrc file (that i use when i run fetchmail) it says "mda "/usr/bin/rt-mailgate --queue General .... (some more rt related stuff)". so does that mean that it's using that script as the MDA when it gets mail? [16:48] i love the nx system for working from home [16:48] best ever [16:48] Donnie: then file a bug. (a 'withlist') [16:48] saliak: yep [16:49] spowers: yes, I'm using them right now, but the point was to see if Canonical could enter into agreement to make one-stop shopping for the NX clients. And freeNX is a little too far behind - you cannot do disconnect/resume yet [16:49] saliak: have a look here for a boatload of information: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Mail-Administrator-HOWTO.html [16:49] and that'll take till i'm 20 to process 8-) [16:49] Can someone do a quick favour for me? [16:49] sipior : so are these errors from when it's trying to send mail (and that's all the stuff that's sitting in the outgoign queue?) [16:49] hey guys im trying to install firefox 3.5 i found and used all the right commands and it says its installed but when i launch ff its stil 3.0.1 [16:49] mbeierl: oh, i really like disconnect/resume. and i think the onus is on nomachine.com to start the partner process [16:50] planegenius1: go to mozilla.org [16:50] Linuwb: I've learned not to say yes until I hear the question ;) [16:50] anyone knows how to setup an ssh server so that it is accessible remotely through a cable modem and router? [16:50] Cans someone tell me the correct code to chmod the file in usr/home/myusername/.drmc [16:50] planegenius1: it won't be available through update. [16:50] Linuwb: just delete it [16:50] saliak: no, looks like something is trying to invoke the "sensible-mda" script to deliver mail locally, but it can't find procmail and the others cited. [16:50] chmod user:user .drmc [16:50] ice109: is he in kde or gnome? [16:51] confounds: did you try /usr/sbin/logrotate ? is it in your PATH ? [16:51] sipior - how do i figure out what's trying to invoke sensible-mda? [16:51] planegenius1: software are only updated when there is a security bug. [16:51] cratylus: i'll check on that.... thanks [16:51] Linuwb: mine is set to 600. Is that what you want to know? [16:52] saliak: i would start with the script you have list as the mda in your fetchmailrc. [16:52] ok, i just dont get why after i installed it 3.5 it wont run it [16:52] Hello, "su" is to "su -", as sudo is to "?????" [16:52] Can someone, help me? i need to chmod some files? [16:52] rage: sudo -i [16:52] Dulak: excellent, ta === joshthecoder_afk is now known as joshthecoder [16:52] planegenius1: Did you close any opened firefox? [16:52] sorry, many times answered but where can i find info about old releases? [16:52] yes [16:53] well, son of a gun, it's right there in the sudo manpage [16:53] Linuwb: I'm trying to help you. I just don't understand your question and I'm trying to get clarification. What are you trying to do? just issue chmod 600 .dmrc ? [16:53] planegenius1: including download and add-on windows [16:53] cratylus: i don't have the logrotate command in that directory... but i do have an /etc/logrotate.d/ directory.... [16:53] OsamaK_: i think so [16:53] hi. The firefox-3.5 in ubuntu package is beta 4. is that going to get updated to release soon? [16:53] Anyone know of a good CPU meter for the GNOME tray [16:53] planegenius1: try "$ killall firefox" [16:53] just ignore Linuwb, i already gave him the answer and he keeps asking the same question [16:54] sorry didn't see your shout mbeierl, i ned to chmod .dmrc to 644. but i am using an in correct code and don't no the correct one [16:54] confounds, do you get output when you type: dpkg -s logrotate ? [16:54] wondering if you have the package [16:54] anyone knows how to setup an ssh server so that it is accessible remotely through a cable modem and router? [16:54] if anyone uses pidgin and has a yahoo account, here's how you update pidign to support the new authentication code... http://www.pidgin.im/download/ubuntu/ [16:54] Linuwb: ok, so what happens when you do the following: "cd ; chmod 644 .dmrc" ? [16:54] baba_b00ie, thanks when I log in to yahoo in the next full moon ill make sure to update pidgin [16:55] nothing no report or anything [16:55] planegenius1: ? [16:55] cratylus: good call - "Package `logrotate' is not installed and no info is available." - so i guess it's just calling the files from cron [16:55] mezquitale, no need to be a el douche, i was having issues with it.. and thought i'd pass the knowledge on [16:56] Linuwb: that means it was successful. do "ls -al .dmrc" and what does it show? [16:56] What's the likelyhood that jaunty will get Firefox 3.5 packages? [16:56] Looking for a script that will delete the "localstore.rdf" file from Firefox, everytime it is run. [16:56] jerbear: nil, i suspect. [16:56] cratylus: thanks a lot [16:56] hey guys [16:56] it shows this -rw-r--r-- 1 tm0 tm0 28 2009-06-24 10:36 .dmrc [16:56] jerbear: officially, of course. i'm sure it will be available in other repositories soon. [16:56] Hi, how can I activate a case sensitive globbing with bash on ubuntu ? [16:57] confounds, yeah that's what it looked like. i figured it'd be in your path if it were installed. so all you need is to aptitude install it. no prob [16:57] anyone know where the games folder for ubuntu can be found? [16:57] baba_b00ie: there have been many people asking about problems with Yahoo here, so thanks very much - will be sure to pass it on :) [16:57] sillyCEO: just write a bash script that deletes that file before it launches firefox [16:57] don't know how to do that. Whats a bash script? A text file? [16:57] Linuwb: rw-r--r-- is the same as 644. it worked. What else might it be that you are trying to do? [16:58] Oops, I mean rickest:, I don't know how to do that. Whats a bash script? A text file? [16:58] Thats all, i was messing with wine adn i hit that by accident. many thanks. :) [16:58] crap [16:58] acutally one more thing [16:58] sillyCEO: yeah. you'll also need to associate links (URLS) with that script instead of firefox directly. might help if you have someone around you can ask [16:58] were is the firewall settings? [16:59] mbeierl, yup.. yahoo upgraded their servers to drop yahoo im 6,7 support to push the newer clients including any 3rd party IM software that uses the older authenication codes.. [16:59] I think im a noob..im runnin glinux as the host and windows xp as the guest..i installed guest additions..full screen windows (guest) looks great...but if i run seamless mode...switching between a windows program then back to linux...or moving windows programs/lmenus over my fluxbox linux desktpo, the screen flickers horribly. Am I missing something? is this a video issue on the guest side or my host side? never had any 3d/video issues before on my nix setup . [16:59] Linuwb: /etc/sysconfig/iptables [16:59] dulak he's in gnome [16:59] Linuwb: in Ubuntu? you can use "ufw" the Ubuntu FireWall... [16:59] raspa: it's probably on already. confirm that shopt | grep nocaseglob returns "off". [16:59] cratylus: cool - thanks again [16:59] I have an Ubuntu 9.04 disk, how can I tell if it is the 64 bit version?? [16:59] anyone know where the games folder is on ubuntu? [17:00] cb_: are you using VirtualBox or VMware... or? [17:00] i searched google for the problem with eithe rlike +flicker or +flashing. [17:00] sipior: fyi: I just spent a little bit of time asking around about firefox 3.5. Once we get it built in Ubuntu, it'll need to be tested, but we shouldn't need to wait until Jaunty to see it. [17:00] sillyCEO: something like http://pastebin.com/m11399d0 [17:00] lenswipe: in what respect? there is a games menu in the applications menu [17:00] rickest: associate URLS with the script instead of Firefox directly? What do you mean? [17:00] Not in command line just in GUI :P my webcam doesn't work with iton i think [17:00] sipior: But of course it won't be available today [17:00] MSG does anyone know how to add special characters from non english languages for use in the terminal? [17:00] lwells lwells, you can boot off of it and execute uname -a in the command line [17:00] sillyCEO: so when you click a link in e-mail, for example, it runs your script instead of firefox [17:00] moncky: im looking for the actual folder containing the games in file browser, i need to make some config changes [17:00] alternative for pidgin more like yahoo messenger with webcam support and voice call ? [17:00] thanks [17:00] virtualbox [17:00] Pici: oh, that's nice. and very different from what i had heard. then again, i suppose they couldn't very well make folks wait so long :-) [17:00] sure [17:00] mbeierl, virtalbox* [17:00] lenswipe: apt-get install mlocate [17:00] latest ubuntu/vbox [17:01] via fluxbox though [17:01] ok i made sure firefox was killed, and removed it and reinstalled it, still no luck [17:01] i havent tried it in the default gnome [17:01] lenswipe: then run updatedb [17:01] lenswipe: then use the locate command [17:01] cb_: sorry - vmware user here. don't know about those issues with vb :( [17:01] Buletin, there is a great one but i cant remember the name [17:01] moncky: locate? [17:01] Pici: perhaps consider adding it to the channel topic? (although whether anyone reads it...) [17:01] i would use vmware but its expensive lol [17:02] Buletin, check out Gyach [17:02] lenswipe: yeah it searches your file system though configs may be in a . file in your home dir [17:02] thanks [17:02] they have video/voicechat support for yahoo [17:02] does anyone know how to add non english characters to the standard character set?rn [17:02] Pici: or a factoid, maybe. [17:02] it may be a little complex to setup..not sure if its in ubuntu repos or not [17:02] sipior: I'm making a note of it to the other ops, I gotta run for a bit. [17:02] moncky: thanks, got them they are in /var/games aparently :) [17:02] Thank anyways guys i got to go. [17:02] Bye bye [17:02] dulak you still there? [17:02] ice109: sad that, kde will pick up a wall message but apparently gnome will not [17:03] dulak hmm [17:03] ice109: yeah I'm coding in another window [17:03] ice109: I'm gonna test it, sec [17:03] rickest: Do I copy and paste that text into a text file and put it somewhere? Never did a script before (nooooob) [17:03] moncky: hmm the config file im looking for isnt there, how do i search for it? [17:04] sillyCEO: yes, then to make it executable do: chmod +x name_of_script [17:04] moncky: im running open arena server from the ubuntu repos and i cant find the confg file to make changes to it :( [17:04] sillyCEO: you see the part in there that you need to replace with an actual folder name, right? [17:04] with what kinda CFLAGS is the majority of ubuntu built? [17:04] hello i have a question: if i have multiple linux operating systems on one pc, do i need to have multiple linux-swap partitions or can i use just one swap partition? [17:04] ice109: yeah gnome doesn't pick it up at all, but kde would it has a program that listens for wall messages and gives a popup, but gnome gets nothing [17:05] rickest: still staring at "chmod"... [17:05] homo: one is fine [17:05] dulak what are wall messages? [17:05] hi, i just installed jaunty on my macbook pro and all of a sudden the default 'human' theme is missing. i have tried reinstalling it through the package manager, but it still doesn't appear in the appearance dialog. any ideas on how to get it reinstalled? [17:05] homo: well maybe if you want to suspend multiple at the same time you want more than one... [17:05] i do not get why i cant launch firefox 3.5? [17:05] lenswipe: have you looked in you home folder (its probably a hidden file/folder in there somewhere) [17:05] tulcod, that would depend on the application ... but the most generic is -O2 (although some low-level libraries will refuse to compile with that flag as they are written in a certain way). [17:06] !karmic [17:06] Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 [17:06] how do i see which usb port my usb-serial cable is connected to? [17:06] does gnome have a snapshot package...the printscreen ( prtscn ) on the keyboard dont work when the panel menu is selected [17:06] ice109: like write, but to all users [17:06] ice109: oldschool mass message to all logins [17:06] dulak anyway i can remote open a file? [17:06] When I type is uname -a what does it need to say for me to know it is 64 bit? [17:07] NetLarIrvine: uname -m should return x86_64 [17:07] ice109: no the X session token wouldn't let you do anything [17:07] ice109: it's to prevent just that from happening, one user starting apps as another and such [17:07] it says just "i686" [17:07] Thingymebob: no its not, i mean there is an instance of openarena server in there, but its one i downloaded and when i run it its loading a config file called default.cfg from somewhere, which contains the wrong values [17:07] NetLarIrvine: then it's not 64-bit [17:07] ok thanks [17:08] irc.oltreirc.net [17:08] lenswipe: locate default.cfg [17:08] salut all [17:08] Thingymebob: it returns nothing [17:09] lenswip did you sudo updatedb [17:09] Thingymebob: no, what does it do? [17:09] lenswipe, updates the database of files, do that first then locate default.cfg [17:10] hello all! [17:10] Thingymebob: mmkay, its weird tho, cos when i start a game server thats located in my home dir, it loads a file with incorrect values in it called default.cfg but i cant find that file anywhere, weird or what!? [17:11] Thingymebob: i just ran sudo updatedb and locate default.cfg still returns nothing [17:11] lenswipe: Indeed, it must be somewhere! [17:11] is there an ubuntu deb for firefox 3.5 yet? [17:11] (the final release from today) [17:12] rgbcs: probably not till karmic [17:12] how do i tell what /dev/ttyUSB port my usb serial converter is on? [17:12] rickrest: Yes, I see that part where I enter my "ff userid" (whatever that is!) [17:12] rgbcs: no, but it is apparently being worked on. [17:12] Thingymebob: the thing is, its setting the bind address to dpmaster.deathmask.net [17:12] sillyCEO: ok [17:12] sipior, danbhfive: k thanks [17:13] lenswipe: have a look in /usr/lib/games/openarena [17:13] Thingymebob: which, seeing as my game server is not hosted from that domain will cause connections to the game server to be lost [17:13] Thingymebob: ive been in there, theres no mention of default.cfg [17:13] I have a question? I'm experiementing with kernels, after I build a kernel do I have to delete the source dir or can I make clean and build another? with different opt? [17:13] Thingymebob: offs, now it cant even find /usr/lib/games [17:14] zek152: dmesg should show what device it got attached as [17:14] Thingymebob: im cracking up here [17:14] русский [17:14] Does anyone have a default /etc/group ? mine seemed to lose all group memberships for hal etc when I upgraded my 9.10 Alpha 2 box.. thanks [17:14] lenswipe: now that can't have gone, give me a minute, installing. [17:15] tw3ak: make clean clears out everything [17:15] rickest: I substituted [your_ff_userid] with what I think is my profile folder name, and saved the whole thing as a text file called "script.sh". Now what? What's chmod? [17:15] Thingymebob: im just re-installing openarena-server [17:15] hey all [17:15] how do i install Firefox 3.5 on my ubuntu? [17:15] Thingymebob: should gimme something to do to stop me breaking the keyboard over my head [17:15] может ктонить помочь с разрешением дисплея ? [17:15] ok so I don't have to .. great save time once I know I've got the one I want then I'll delete and reinstall a new source dir [17:15] Anyone have a PPA for Firefox 3.5 besides mozilla-daily or fta? Both of those still have RC and it segfaults on my hardy installation. [17:16] I am sure you are getting this question a lot, but how can I update to firefox 3.5 in 9.04? [17:16] !ru > sergey_ [17:16] i don't mind having it go over my regular firefox install [17:16] sergey_, please see my private message [17:16] Dulak, i think i found my problem. my virtual box didnt have the usb enabled [17:16] I'm having problems with sound. It has never worked on this machine. All the channels are unmuted and the voulme display clearly shows there is something happening. This is a motherboard soundcard and it is "sorround" capable. Is there a way to check that all is well with the system/soundcard? [17:16] zek152: try dmesg | grep ttyUSB [17:16] sillyCEO: chmod marks the script as executable so you can run it as a program [17:17] Does anyone have a vanilla (or close to) /etc/group they can paste to me so I can see the required default groups for haldaemon etc etc? thanks [17:17] I've got a 2-5% improvement over 686 with just cpu selection on bytemark... I'm planning on trying the Intel compiler once they have 2.6.30 patched for it. But for now I'm going to try different opts in make menuconfig === Raff7 is now known as r7|znc [17:18] so does anyone know where I can get the firefox 3.5 .deb package? [17:18] rickest: OK, sorry for being an idiot, but when you say "do: chmod +x name_of_script" - what do you mean by "Do"? [17:19] Roland123, thanks [17:19] Anyone have a PPA for Firefox 3.5 besides mozilla-daily or fta? Both of those still have RC and it segfaults on my hardy installation. [17:21] hey [17:21] I'm booting 9.04 from the liveCD on an older machine. I get as far as the Ubuntu splash screen then there is a delay and a command prompt. Is there a way to get it to finish loading from here? [17:21] In my ever progressive move to Ubuntu from Windows, does anybody know of a decent MUD client for the Linux CLI? Will telnet work just fine with it? It's the colors that I'm mostly concerned about. Common MUD clients will colorize specific actions and I'm not sure if that's the emulation (xterm) or if it's the client parsing the information [17:21] Between 2 ubuntu PCs running openssh-server that are connected with a crossover cable, how would I copy files without the overhead of encryption? I think rsync can use ssh to get a remote shell and then run temporarily as a server, is this correct? [17:21] can anybody help me with google chromium ? [17:21] Does anyone have a default /etc/group ? mine seemed to lose all group memberships for hal etc when I upgraded my 9.10 Alpha 2 box.. thanks [17:21] alkisg, you don't use ssh if you don't want the encryption overhead. Use FTP [17:21] peturbed: what do you need [17:22] alkisg, rsync would also work just fine [17:22] hey guys [17:22] i added the key and the source ..dude but the updates arent showing in the update manager bkevan [17:22] does anyone have any idea why my 'human' theme would simply disappear? [17:22] where should i put scripts i write that will be executed by the system?? [17:22] alkisg, you do not need ssh as you are using a crossover cable between 2 PCs and the security is pointless in that scenario [17:22] ascheel: what's the syntax for not using encyption with rsync? I'm unable to find it :( [17:22] the daily updates from google i mean bkevan [17:22] alkisg, rsync doesn't use encryption as far as I know [17:22] ascheel: the ssh server is already there, and I didn't want to install ftp just for that [17:22] Hilikus .. depends where you want to put them.. /usr/local/ is a good place.. [17:23] Hilikus, just add a ~/scripts directory and add it to your paths [17:23] path* [17:23] ascheel: I think rsync over ssh uses the underlying ssh encryption [17:23] alkisg, then don't use rsync over ssh [17:23] just use rsync [17:23] ascheel: ok, how would I do that? [17:23] hi [17:23] all [17:23] ascheel: but i won't be running them, it's the system. its a script to detect wireless changes [17:23] ascheel: do I have to run it in daemon mode? [17:23] What does it mean if I'm trying to run 9.04 from the liveCD but it opens a command prompt after the ubuntu splash screen? [17:23] Hilikus, then the advice that bkevan said would work well [17:24] alkisg, rsync always has to have a daemon and a client [17:24] i have a problem, i have usb-serial device, but it disconnecs and reconects and its imposible get device [17:24] alkisg: stand by, getting you an example of my rsync script === bdl is now known as lifi [17:24] alkisg: ssh = encryption. rsync over ssh = encryption. No way around it. Mount the remote driver using NFS if you want to copy files with no encryption. But to be honest, I just don't think you're going to see a difference in speed. [17:24] ascheel: but where inside usr/local? [17:24] Hilikus, just put the script in /usr/local [17:24] %s/driver/drive [17:25] how can i send a file while in ssh [17:25] ascheel: oh i see [17:25] Hilikus, correction, /usr/local/bin perhaps [17:25] krammer_: man scp === troopperi_ is now known as troopperi [17:25] Hilikus, just type this and use that: echo $PATH [17:25] leftyfb: ftp is about 5 times faster than ssh in gigabit connections with my current PCs [17:25] ascheel: thats what i thought, but strictly speaking it's not a binary [17:25] alkisg: then use ftp [17:25] Thingymebob: fixed it, my custom config file was called server.fg when it should have been server.cfg [17:25] alkisg: here's the script I use for rsync. You can figure it out, but ftp is far and away the easiest solution. [17:25] rsync -av --delete rsync://192.168.1.97:/media/Music /home/music [17:26] alkisg: 5x faster??? encryption overhead isn't that much on the wire man, you got something going on there if it's really that big of a difference [17:26] Thingymebob: im guessing that when the game couldnt find server.cfg it defaulted to one somewhere else [17:26] alkisg: you can also look into creating an NFS share to accomplish that [17:26] ascheel: that's assuming he has the other machine mounted on /media/Music [17:26] lenswipe:8-) I'll stop the install now then! [17:26] Dulak: are you sure? I've done extensive testing on that [17:26] does no one know where you can get firefox 3.5 in deb format? [17:26] leftyfb, that's why it's just an example [17:26] Thingymebob: :) thanks anyways :) [17:26] unr3a1: not possible atm [17:26] alkisg: i'll agree with Dulak [17:26] alkisg: encryption overhead on the wire shouldn't be more than 30% of normal traffic from what I've seen [17:26] Dulak: the encryption is a huge overhead on some systems. On my home fileserver (1.6 GHz atom CPU), I get 3 MB/sec over SFTP. I get 50 MB/sec over FTP [17:26] Thingymebob: actually no, leave the install going - its a good game if you like quake :) [17:26] alkisg: granted that was at 100m not 1g but still.... [17:26] sillyCEO: I mean run that command from a terminal/cmdline [17:27] Dulak: the problem is in CPU... [17:27] Thingymebob: mebbe u could play against me on my server :P [17:27] i m a beginner, i want to compile desmume and i have an error gtk2.6 is required to build... how do i get it [17:27] ascheel: that's cpu, not the wire [17:27] unr3a1, i would recommend installing this ppa and using the package manager. https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa [17:27] Dulak, it's the CPU that's the bottleneck [17:27] unr3a1, but you can download the individual deb packages from there as well [17:27] lenswipe: may as well now, i've got the space and the time now with my broken foot! [17:27] Guess I'm just spoiled with my bleeding edge cpus [17:27] mount the drive over nfs and just rsync [17:27] Dulak, it's not the wire that encrypts the data [17:28] Thingymebob: heh, gimme a second to make sure everything is working and the ports are open, sorry bout ur broken foot btw :) [17:28] Can somebody give a beginner some pointers on getting 9.04 to boot from the liveCD on an older machine? I'm getting the splash screen and then a command prompt. [17:28] ascheel, leftyfb: I though it would be possible to use rsync regularily, which would login to the remote server with the usual ssh, and then it would open temporarily a port remotely, and use that to avoid encryption. So that scenario isn't possible, then? [17:28] ascheel: well my stuff is all super fast so I don't notice the cpu being the bottleneck usually [17:28] alkisg: ssh = encrypted [17:28] how do i restart the panel, if i deleted it? [17:28] alkisg: ssh is always encrypted. Don't use SSH if you're going over a crossover cable. [17:28] leftyfb: yes, that's why it would open another port [17:29] SSH = Secure SHell (encrypted) [17:29] alkisg: ssh = encrypted [17:29] Ah I'm not getting through, my English sucks [17:29] alkisg: just set up rsyncd on one box and direct rsync it over [17:29] Let me try that again [17:29] hi there ! does someone knows if FF3.5 will be included in the main repository soon ? Or is it a better idea to get it from launchpad ? [17:29] alkisg: you CANNOT use ssh unencrypted, period [17:29] * ellar is interested in crashR s question [17:29] alkisg: rsync doesn't have to transport over ssh, it has it's own bare protocol it can use if you set it up to do so [17:30] leftyfb: I'm not talking about ssh. rsync can execute commands remotely. So it can temporarily execute an rsync daemon [17:30] crashR: I think the repo version is still the beta, it hasn't updated to the full version, I expect it'll show up pretty quick though [17:30] alkisg: rsync over what? [17:30] alkisg, the rsync daemon has to be running already, or the rsync client won't be able to connect to it [17:30] crashR: shiretoko(sp) is 3.5; I haven't checked in a couple of days, but isn't 3.5 still in beta? [17:30] oh wait, rsync daemon [17:30] anyone know how to write a shell script that when called inserts the date and time in whatever application you are working in? [17:31] 3.5 final is out now :) [17:31] how do i restart the panel, if i deleted it? [17:31] brandonban6: try going to #bash for that, but use backticks(`) around the 'date' command [17:31] regeya, final released today [17:31] Hi, does anyone know when 3.5 Final will be in the repos? [17:31] *Firefox 3.5 Final [17:31] kraut, right-click the panel, choose Add, then find the applet again [17:31] thanks ascheel [17:31] kraut, do u have a panel now [17:31] brandonban6: you're welcome sir [17:31] krammer_: no [17:32] krammer_: i did a mistake and deleted the above panel completly [17:32] but I wondered if packagers will include it in jaunty main repositories [17:32] only the bottom one is still there [17:32] firefox 3.5 released [17:32] asanchez: the entire panel is away [17:32] kraut, now i see what you mean. You deleted the panel entirely. [17:32] yes :/ [17:32] crashR: again, only the beta is in the repos, it should get updated soon [17:32] right-click the existing panel and choose "New Panel" and re-set it up. [17:32] ascheel, leftyfb, Dulak: OK let me try to explain the scenario again. (1) rsynch can execute commands remotely. (2) To do that, it connects with ssh. (3) After it connects, it can start an rsync daemon. THE DAEMON WON'T BE USING SSH. But note that when it's started like this, it's called an rsync server, not a daemon. (4) Then, it can use this server to transfer the files without ssh encryption. [17:32] ==> This way I can transfer files without the need of installing ftpd in all my PCs (they already have sshd installed). [17:32] Is this scenario possible? [17:33] ascheel, he doesnt have a panel correct? [17:33] ascheel: oh noes, do i need to reasign every stuff? [17:33] krammer_: missing one of his 2 default panels [17:33] krammer_: the bottom one is still there [17:33] alkisg: you're not getting it, rsyncd is how to do what you are talking about, not ssh, even if it could do it how you think, it would probably just use a ssh tunnel and still you'd have encryption. [17:33] just add then move up or where ever side u like [17:34] Dulak: why would it need an ssh tunnel if it could open a port on it's own and make a direct connection to it without ssh? [17:34] no one knows how to get firefox 3.5 from (main) repo? [17:34] ellar: it has not been updated yet [17:34] rickest: Oh, Duh. OK. So my script is called "killthefile.sh" so in terminal, I just write "chmod killthefile.sh" ? [17:34] Hey I have an issue with my vista...grub error 18 (done a google search but its not helpful). I have two drives one with win 7 the other previously with ubuntu but formatted now with vista...working fine untill I turned it on one day and bam it stopped me booting into vista with the grub 18 error. Thanks. [17:35] !info firefox-3.5 | ellar [17:35] ellar: firefox-3.5 (source: firefox-3.5): safe and easy web browser from Mozilla. In component universe, is optional.

[17:35] alkisg: from a programmer's point of view, why wouldn't I use a ssh port instead of an open port when obviously I was used through ssh, as opposed to being in daemon mode which covers your usage scenario? [17:35] alkisg: ignore ssh. Forget SSH. First off, Daemon = Server application. [17:35] hello [17:35] Hello. [17:35] is there any geek about local area network connection [17:36] ascheel: look at the rsync man page about the daemon <> server meanings [17:36] alkisg: start rsyncd, use rsync on the other PC to connect to it. No SSH. DO not use SSH [17:36] How can I connect to mobile broadband with Option Globethrotter iCON 401 USB modem in Jaunty? [17:36] krammer_: ascheel: ok, got it back mostly [17:36] thanks [17:36] how to connect to another comp in local area [17:36] Kragnerac, crashR you got that? [17:36] alkisg: to program rsync to use a bare port while being used through ssh when running in daemon mode does the same thing would be redundant [17:36] damn it, never click to fast again [17:36] Great! [17:36] thanks erUSUL [17:37] anybody willing to take a few minutes to help a beginner with an install on on older computer? [17:37] Previous i was asking about the advantage of using Ubuntu DVD and methods to install packages from DVD , i don rembr the nick of those who were helping me , can anyone help me on this issue [17:37] i need to know how autentificated in windows proxy [17:37] alkisg: if you use ssh to remote-start the rsync listener, the connection will be going over ssh, hence encryption [17:37] if its in universe I'll get it now (even in beta) ellar :) [17:37] Is this possible: to have / and /boot on a USB flash drive and /home, /tmp and /var on a normal HDD? [17:37] krammer_: I don't know how to make it work...the vista disk gives me the option to go into C AFTER it asks for some 'drivers'? [17:37] some body nkwo [17:37] alkisg: If you do NOT want encryption ( and the associated overhead), do not remote start it over SSH. You will have to start rsyncd daemon as the server. [17:38] Starbucks, go into recovery mode [17:38] jpolonia: I'm sorry but I dont' understand your question [17:38] ascheel: I'm looking to start rsync in daemon mode from within the ssh connection. [17:38] Because I likely have REAL slow writes. [17:38] the proxy of ubuntu it's not working [17:38] someone has the problem than I, my pidgin transmission rate is to slow to transfer files [17:39] alkisg, you can do that over SSH, but you will need to connect rsync over a SECOND connection over the UNENCRYPTED port [17:39] ascheel: yes [17:39] How do I disable system beep?The "alert" box is unchecked in sound, but it still happens. [17:39] Starbucks, http://askbobrankin.com/fix_mbr.html [17:39] who can help me ? [17:39] crashR you should also see meta package firefox-3.1 [17:39] ascheel: that's the rsync command line I'm looking for. [17:39] alkisg: so just use ssh to start rsync as a listener. Stand by... [17:39] hi i'm new [17:39] alkisg: it's not automatic, you login via ssh, start rsync in daemon mode, then from the other computer you do a normal rsync over [17:40] Hi all [17:40] ascheel, Dulak: rsync can tell ssh to execute a command, so no need for a different ssh connection [17:40] alkisg: I just don't think it's gonna be an automatic "one-liner" === kb is now known as Guest34508 [17:40] Ah. Terminal profile. Who'd have thunk. [17:40] i want to work with the proxy of my company [17:40] who can help [17:40] ? [17:40] Dulak, he understands that. He wants to start rsync to listen, but he wants to do it manually over an SSH connection so he can then start rsync over a second connection that's not over SSH. [17:40] I would like to have files that are usually only read on a USB flash drive and the files being changed often on a normal HDD. [17:40] I don' [17:40] Dulak: what's he's done, he will manually shut down the rsync listener over ssh [17:40] Dulak: sorry i said brb and came back now , u were helping about ubuntu dvd [17:41] I don't suppose anyone can explain why my window borders have turned pink? [17:41] ascheel: I understood him to want to run a single command to have all that happen automagically [17:41] Wait, never mind. Back to normal now :\ [17:41] yahoo messenger is not working in pidgin your help please. [17:41] Dulak, he could if he sets up .bashrc for a specific login [17:41] I've messed with grub.my ubuntu is 8.10 and installed it using wubi [17:41] hello [17:41] Dulak, ascheel: I think it's possible with a one-liner. I thought it was hard myself; that's why I got here to ask. I understand now that what I'm asking is not trivial, so I'll do it in the next few hours :) If you want, I can come back and tell you the results... [17:41] is there any specialist knowing about local area connection [17:41] I was able to do a full install of 9.04 on to a SanDisk Cruzer, but the boot is slow. [17:41] nasrullah: go to #pidgin and read the topic [17:41] nasrullah, go to irc [17:41] proxy ubuntu not work [17:41] What causes the 9.04 desktop cd to boot to a command prompt instead of to the desktop on on older pc? [17:41] Anybody? [17:42] I dunno. [17:42] yes [17:42] saw this too ellar.. but this is the same beta version .. so lets run with 3.5 ^^ [17:42] twig11: older pc means ? How old ? What is the config ?

[17:43] lol [17:43] sillyCEO: that's not the command I said to run [17:43] hello [17:43] sillyCEO: you didn't give it any permissions [17:43] what the hell [17:43] And BTW, the Asus A7N8X-X is capable of USB flash drive booting!

[17:50] Hey, I'm trying to install an external USB wifi (wn620g) on Ubuntu 9.04 64bit (server edition). I tried installing netathrxusb driver (the original driver that was supllied, for Vista 64bit) using ndiswrapper, but I'm getting a bunch of errors ("ndiswrapper version 1.53 loaded...", than lots of "unknown symbol" errors and than it fails) [17:50] krammer_: yeah thats a good place to start. Where do i find that information? Do i HAVE to open the thing up to find that out? [17:50] any hints? [17:50] Dulak: ok after that [17:50] ugh this is so confusing, in windows if i wanted to find an executable i would search for *.exe... how do i find where something is installed?

[17:51] fk [17:51] hemanth: you checked sources.list and the dvd wasn't listed in there as a source, so when you installed it put in network sources, not the dvd [17:51] from what i have read, executables have no extension in linux, how do you know what file is the executable..?? [17:51] hemanth: you add the dvd as a source, then synaptic will show all the packages on the dvd in it's on fake repo [17:51] ok cool [17:51] beast: thanx again [17:52] ~meow [17:52] I have a question: [17:52] Hylian: the permissions on the file shown with "ls -l filenamehere" determine if it's executable and by who [17:52] About partitioning.

[17:53] ascheel: OK, so I ran the command "chmod 666 killthefile.sh" and now it says "no such file or directory". Do I have to place "killthefile.sh" file somewhere special? Its on the desktop now... [17:53] Why cant i play streaming video from cnn thru firefox?????????? [17:53] zak, when on the share tab, click on share this folder, do you have a popup saying sharing service is not installed?

Thx [18:14] ascheel, : .8 [18:14] Pici, how long does it normally take to get it into the repos? :D [18:15] lenswipe: which PC on your network is .18? That PC is trying to use .18 as the default gateway. [18:15] guntbert: /media or /dev ?

[18:16] guntbert: result was /media/cdrom: 3266c [18:16] ascheel, : yeah there we go i think [18:16] guntbert: but unable to eject [18:16] hello, where can I get firefox 3.5 for ubuntu?

[18:19] hemanth: no, fuser -m only tells you, what process has "something" open under that directory [18:20] hemanth: fuser shows you files in use [18:20] hemanth: same type of thing as lsof really [18:20] guntbert: o so i should kill the process by getting the number [18:20] hemanth: yes [18:20] guntbert: Dulak: can i do it with a single command ? getting the pid and killing ? [18:21] guntbert: Dulak: xargs is it ? === r7|znc is now known as Raff7 [18:21] hey can someone help me set up ubuntu? [18:21] which /dev device is audio directed to/from ? [18:21] can someone let me a know of a webcam app for intrepid that i can apt-get? or whatever... [18:21] fuser has a -k option that will kill the process [18:22] doesnt HAVE to record video necesarily, just need to get some snapshots... etc. [18:22] hemanth: not sure, have a look at man fuser, xargs would require a little "fussing", because of the letter after the pid [18:22] Dulak: kool ok fuser -k [18:22] hemanth: something like fuser -m /mount/point/here -k [18:22] hemanth: would kill any process holding onto the device that was mounted at /mount/point/here [18:23] #asterisk [18:23] does anyone know why when I start up my live cd and select try without installing my screen blacks out and just the mouse shows up? [18:23] Dulak: fuser -m or -k ? [18:23] hemanth: you'll need both, as Dulak said [18:23] hemanth: both, -m tells it to look for whatever is holding the mount point you give it, -k tells it to kill that process [18:23] Baha|Nemesis: can u give more info abt the version of ubuntu and your machine ?

[18:24] syntax\: boot windows and run chkdsk on it === Raff7 is now known as r7|znc [18:24] guntbert: Dulak: o ok :) , can that be used to kill any proc , can it b used instead of ps ? [18:24] I have a compaq pewsario notebook and the newest version of ubuntu desktop [18:25] heyo guys, real quick - whats the keyboard shortcut to "select all"? [18:25] hemanth: it's for files in use, killall is better for a random process [18:25] Dulak: ok [18:25] Devon_C: ctrl-a [18:25] Gnea: thanks [18:25] Dulak: does that mean that there's no available tool in ubuntu to do that? [18:25] hemanth: I suggested using ps only so you know what you are killing [18:25] khear: yes. [18:25] fyi if anyone wants to know where sauerbraten maps go in the future, it's /home/name/.sauerbraten/packages/base/ ohh and the "packages/base" folders might have to be created by the user. ok dudes, im out [18:25] guntbert: ok [18:25] syntax\: available and "trust my data to this reverse engineered thing that may or may not work" are 2 entirely different things my friend. [18:25] Enter text here...boas [18:26] *compaq presario not pewsario [18:26] Dulak: uhh what do you mean [18:26] Pici: so will it be in updates or backports, or in a separate ppa? [18:27] syntax\: I mean ntfs is not open, any filesystem checker for linux would have to have been reverse engineered by some guy with lots of time on his hands.... [18:27] khear: I'm not sure if it will go into backports or directly in universe, but you won't have to rely on a separate PPA once it is done testing. [18:27] Hey everyone I realize that in openoffice calc if you cut, it cuts the background color too. Is there a way for me to lock up the background color in the back so that cutting and pasting won't remove the background color?

[18:31] can anybody suggest a good book, or online reading about what all this options mean when compiling the kernel (make menuconfig)? [18:32] Hi guys. I'm rent a server, but the main language was German. Now I do like to change that, how can I do that? I've searched google but nothing that worked came up. [18:33] chetnick: you might try the linux documentation project...might be something there [18:33] hi, i need help please, i'm trying to connect a wince 5.0 device to my ubuntu 9.04 through usb, but i plug it in and nothing happens... are there any drivers or anything i need to install?

[18:35] yellabs, Yes it is. 8.04 to be exact. :) [18:35] i think, but not sure , its sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales , might check the internet though.. [18:36] chetnick, i started under Gentoo and have compiled more kernels then I'd ever want to again, but since switching to Ubuntu I've never found a need too. I learned most of the options through trial and error. Good luck man. [18:36] yellabs, I already done that. It doesn't really help me. :S [18:36] hmm [18:36] syntax\: get what you can off it, reformat it to ext2 or ext3 and run a full fsck, it could just be ntfs is messed up [18:36] does anyone know how to connect wince 5.0 device (such as pocketpc) to ubuntu 9.04 through usb? i plug it in and it didn't do anything [18:36] Sp00K are you sure you are allowed to change the config?

Installed jaunty amd64 on both my desktop config, and my notebook...for a day aptitude was fine on the notebook and was crying out referring to unauthenticated packages on my desktop pc...after a day the situation changed, now its crying on my notebook, and works fine on my pc...what the hell did I do wrong? the configuration is the same [18:55] myki, total guess: alsa is being loaded and controlled by HAL which is only initialized when xserver is launched [18:55] th0r: hangs on recovery, too [18:55] yellabs: thank u so much for ur help...

[18:55] I have the auth keys for the used repos, and they are the same on both computers. weird part is that it changed [18:55] holotone: you can boot the live cd, then mount the hard drive to a temporary mount point, then edit the file from there [18:55] yellabs, It would give me alot of problems, since its an production machine. [18:56] redrebel, sudo apt-get install opera [18:56] Titan8990_: Just a different kernel or a diff. kernel in recovery mode [18:56] ibuclaw, yeah thats the thought [18:56] lol [18:56] redrebel, but IF you really must... sudo dpkg -i FILE.deb [18:56] th0r: thanks, I'll give that a shot, surprised there'snot a fallback bash prompt somewhere in there [18:56] can't even change to a different virtual terminal [18:56] notyjoey, but i want to install the latest from a deb file [18:56] ah [18:56] holotone, different kernel, doesn't work try recovery mode [18:56] holotone: there is, but only if you can get to the login screen.

[18:57] holotone, remove the splash screen [18:57] yellabs, I'm the only one who can use SSH (except for those who have chrooted ssh) and I really dont want downtime lol. I am thinking of rebooting the server friday night.:) [18:57] holotone, e to edit a menu in grub [18:57] ok ... [18:57] holotone, remove the words quiet and splash from the kernel boot line [18:57] yellabs, Maybe the last things I did, Might have effect, I hope. [18:57] holotone, those changes are not saved so you don't have to worry about losing your splash forever [18:58] Sp00K, since its more of an server issue, and we are not getting any where right now, woudl you mind asking it again in #ubuntu-server ?

[19:14] hello [19:14] adhok: Seems to be a problem for "some" nvidia cards. Haven't dug around much to find out why that is though. Give google a go if you wish :) [19:14] yellabs: http://senduit.com/e2f4c4 [19:14] snake, try man alsa [19:14] its http://www.siltala.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/screenshot-compizconfig-settings-manager.png [19:14] adi_: thanks, I will try taking a look [19:14] how would i install a TTF font into Ubuntu 9.04 ?

That's disabled on mine, actually [19:15] i think [19:15] man alsa [19:15] No manual entry for alsa [19:16] Hi I have a graphics card problem, can anybody help me troubleshoot? I've been googling all morning, but having trouble still. [19:16] snake, yes, i saw :| [19:16] hi, firefox 3.5 is out. how long until it gets into the ubuntu update manager? [19:16] snake, anyway u must config alsa in terminal [19:16] I googled for like 4 hours, thanks for the font info [19:16] yellabs: Unfortunately it doesn't change the window decorations. I think it only fades the windows if they're trying to get your attention or they're unresponsive [19:16] no i see [19:16] adi_: what is the best way to do that? [19:16] hi [19:16] lianimator: http://www.asoftsite.org/s9y/archives/160-FAQ-Where-can-I-get-firefox-3.5-for-Ubuntu.html [19:16] offipso, and window decoration? [19:17] snake, i don't remember if it's alsaconfig or something like that [19:17] spowers: I updated !ff35 with some of that info [19:17] Pici: thanks [19:17] yellabs: Nothing in there, either [19:17] How do I determine on the command line what driver my graphics card is trying to use? [19:17] i was going to ask about that [19:17] yellabs: I also tried changing my theme in appearances, and it still happens [19:17] alsactl? [19:17] offipso, what them are you using? [19:17] theme [19:18] will firefox-3.5 package be localized (in french)? [19:18] snake, maybe, i don't remember [19:18] for the moment I have it in english only [19:18] yellabs: custom. Window border is "bright" [19:18] * zerozerozero hello i have all my music stored on a PC that has ubuntu server now when i try to play it using rythmbox music player i get an import error saying "could not open resource for reading" [19:18] yellabs: controls are "industrial" [19:18] is there a better place for me to ask troubleshooting questions? [19:18] i have ensured proper permissions for the music files [19:18] my problem came up after upgrading intrepid -> jaunty [19:19] I went to firefox.com, clicked "get firefox". and got a tar.gz ... safe to install from there? [19:19] hey all what is the best way to install ff3.5 final, i just tried and it installed a beta [19:19] lianimator: We'd prefer not. [19:19] !ff35 | lianimator miramardesign [19:19] lianimator miramardesign: Firefox 3.5 Final is currently being built and tested for Jaunty. If you install the firefox-3.5 *beta* package from the repos, it will be updated when testing is complete. See also http://is.gd/1jkNY [19:19] pici: tx. looks like they haven't posted 3.5 yet... it's still pretty early. [19:19] yellabs: Ah, if I change to "human" it doesn't do that [19:19] yellabs: No, wait, yes it does [19:19] offipso, ok, last try, go to system and prefences...oh ok.. [19:19] i wish apt-get install would work the first day :( [19:19] i'm using firefox-3.5 from universe and it's working good. i'll get an upgrade whenever it's ready. :) [19:20] will firefox-3.5 be able to use firefox-3.0 settings? [19:20] ffff. i was getting desperate... [19:20] snake, there is somethin with amixer [19:20] hehe [19:20] try man amixer [19:20] any way got to go chill down.. [19:20] rom1v: my profile is okay fwiw [19:20] good luck you all [19:20] then try amixer...u'll ssee something [19:20] :P [19:20] peteforsyth_: No, this is the place. Check /var/log/Xorg.0.log (I think, you may need to check the casesenistivity on that) [19:20] a bit deceiving when the terminal responds that firefox is curr ver. :( [19:20] Does anyone know of a keyboard shortcut command that would call the 'date' command and insert it wherever the cursor is at? (i.e. gedit, wordprocessor, email, ect.)? [19:20] it's beta, do a backup of .mozilla. [19:20] rom1v: Hopefully, thats what testing is for. [19:20] rom1v: it is, but you might need to replace extensions that you installed with synaptic [19:21] bye all [19:21] night [19:21] rom1v: worked for me, only things brokan are the extensions I installed with aptitude, so just remove the system wide ones, and install the new versions by hand [19:21] adi_: I will take a look, thanks for your help === cabrey_ is now known as cabrey [19:21] Pici: Thanks. Big text file came up, looking through it... [19:21] * pisecx wants firefox 3.5 =) [19:21] snake, np [19:21] lianimator, did you get my response? [19:22] 7J bt4 [19:22] cabrey: no I did not. [19:22] lianimator, it seems it won't be updated to the latest FF sadly, it'll be available as a separate package [19:22] Pici: I can run firefox 3.5 directly from the folder I downloaded. [19:22] I have another question pici, when I install Ubuntu 9.04 64, the disk already had Ubuntu 32 installed [19:23] * zerozerozero can somebody tell me how to play music files that are stored on another pc [19:23] I want to remove that from the drive [19:23] cabrey: oh thanks. just like what happened with 3.0 [19:23] NetLarIrvine: Do you have a separate home partition? [19:23] Would deleting that partition mess up anything? [19:23] evenin all :D [19:23] NetLarIrvine, delete that partition, after that u make another partition in that space [19:23] Pici, seperate home partition? [19:23] Pici: hmm, I'm not sure what to look for in there. I see a line for my graphics card, but it doesn't mean much to me. [19:23] NetLarIrvine: apart from all your data? [19:23] Uhh, hi. I have a little question. How do I access the "trash bin" in Ubuntu? [19:24] !trash | KFP [19:24] KFP: The location of Trash has changed since 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash [19:24] peteforsyth_: What graphics card do you have? [19:24] Pici: I upgraded from intrepid to jaunty, and now my screen doesn't work...it's all garbled after the initial Ubuntu logo. [19:24] I am doing a separate fresh install of ubuntu [19:24] ATI technologies inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF [19:24] lol [19:24] lianimator, sorry didnt know if you responded or not, my connection keeps dropping out [19:24] KFP: in your file browser, go to Trash:/// [19:25] I do not need any data from the older Ubuntu install [19:25] Just want to get rid of it [19:25] Pici: can somebody tell me how to play music files that are stored on another pc [19:25] NetLarIrvine, format the drive [19:25] KFP: i usually open up a new file browser, and then go to the "Go" menu. Trash is in there. [19:25] Pici: I've googled enough to learn that ATI dropped support for this card from their newest round of drivers...so I think what I want to do is revert to the open source drivers, but have no idea how to do that! [19:25] does ubuntu support mysql 5.1 fully ? [19:25] cabrey_ I do have Windows that I want to keep [19:25] NetLarIrvine, so, delete the ext3 partion of ubuntu, then go ahead and make a new partion ext4, apply [19:26] zerozerozero: rhythmbox works fine for me, but I'm using mt-daapd at the moment as it acts as a daap server and rhythmbox can autodiscover all the music that way [19:26] Thanks Pici, lianimator and spowers. :) [19:26] NetLarIrvine, then format the partition ubuntu was on [19:26] somebody uses xmlsec1? [19:26] Pici: these instructions looked promising, I ran through the config utility, but it did not help. [19:26] https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+question/63710 [19:26] cabrey_ that will not mess up grub ? [19:26] peteforsyth_: The open source driver is called "ati" and can be found in the "xserver-xorg-video-ati" pacakge [19:26] yvan_: i am sharing files using samba [19:26] NetLarIrvine, grub will be automatically reinstalled when installing ubuntu [19:27] peteforsyth_: Unfortunately, those are instructions for installing the ATI closed source drivers. === cabrey_ is now known as cabrey [19:27] edbian_: Thanks!! That's very helpful. Do I need to uninstall the restricted driver somehow first? [19:27] cabrey_ it is already a dual boot computer with grub [19:27] I found some instrux for that but they required a GUI :( [19:27] yvan_: also i am new to linux [19:27] hello..i'v my ubutnu on 2 partitions...now i want to make from both one singel....the first partition is the system on the second partition is my homefolder....is there a way without dataloss? thx [19:27] zerozerozero: I was doing that too but my debian had no gvfs at that time and rhythmbox had some trouble with the files, so I moved to daap share [19:27] peteforsyth_: You can use the modprobe command to insert / remove modules (drivers) in the kernel. [19:27] Pici: Ah, thanks :) [19:27] NetLarIrvine, yes grub will be reinstalled for you when you install ubuntu [19:27] peteforsyth_: Probably best to remove xorg-driver-fglrx, and delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf [19:28] just delete the xorg.conf file outright?? [19:28] <[rip]oink> rawr [19:28] peteforsyth_: for example: "sudo modprobe -r fglrx" [19:28] zerozerozero: well I moved to ubuntu on the clent side since then thanks to the broken hal in debian, so it might not be an issue anymore [19:28] cabrey grub is already installed [19:28] peteforsyth_: Removing the package will ensure that your system will choose the other driver at boot time though. [19:28] OK, ran the modprobe command... [19:28] peteforsyth_: xorg no longer requires it to be populated. If you have other configuration in there then you should only remove references to the fglrx driver. [19:28] NetLarIrvine, yes i understand that, but when you run the ubuntu installer, the MBR (grub) will be overwritten [19:28] peteforsyth_: No errors? [19:29] anyone knows why on dc++ i can't get results with search, even with a big share, ports forwarded in the router, activ connection? [19:29] not running modprobe -r fglrx [19:29] not=no errors on that command [19:29] cabrey, i left the old Ubuntu install on there [19:29] peteforsyth_: Good :). Now simply install the package I mentioned earlier and "sudo modprobe ati" [19:29] Hi there. My Ubuntu box used to work 100% as my gateway to the internet - I have now installed virtualbox (had to install kernel) and all of a sudden, no routing will take place from my lan to the internet via my ubuntu box. Ubuntu box can ping domains on the internet fine. [19:30] peteforsyth_: It might be "sudo modprobe radeon" I can't remember. Which ever one doesn't error out. [19:30] Does anyone know of a keyboard shortcut command that would call the 'date' command and insert it wherever the cursor is at? (i.e. gedit, wordprocessor, email, ect.)? [19:30] cabrey, just want to know, when I remove the partition with the old Ubuntu after installing the 64 bit Ubuntu, will that mess up grub? [19:30] Pici: edbian_ : Right now it just says "Configured Video Device" and "UseFBDev" "true" in the device section of xorg.conf [19:30] hey guys, jsut got myself an acer aspire one, and install ubuntu netbook remix on it, it works great on the standard ubuntu netbook desktop, but using the desktop switcher and then rebooting results in me losing alll the gnome panels, and all i can do is right click the desktop :( [19:30] no ref. to fglrx [19:30] <[rip]oink> tel0s: [19:30] yvan_:how do share the music files that are on my server using daap ? [19:30] <[rip]oink> ctrl+alt+f1 [19:31] yup, into terminal. [19:31] * cabrey_ has a really bad storm here... [19:31] [rip]oink, [19:31] I should delete the "device" section anyway? [19:31] :)))) [19:31] peteforsyth_: you can use "modprobe -l" to check what modules are loaded. Combine it with the grep command to make things quicker. I don't usually mess with xorg.conf [19:31] [rip]oink, im sat in a terminal mate [19:31] zerozerozero: sudo aptitude install mt-daapd , then you can just set it up through its web interface to share the music files [19:32] hello [19:32] zerozerozero: i don't recall the port to access it but its configuration is at the usual place, and pretty straigthforward [19:32] I messed up my menu.lst well not exactly but can someone reorganize my menu.lst? [19:32] I'll pastebin [19:32] edbian_: What should I grep for? ati? [19:33] peteforsyth_: try "radeon" [19:33] [rip]oink, im sat in a terminal mate?? [19:33] zerozerozero: i use rhythmbox for daap sharing and it's okay. there's a plugin. === nicolas_ is now known as Guest21943 [19:33] pastebin reorganized it [19:33] zerozerozero: but i'm sharing from a workstation, not a server [19:33] hooray [19:33] OK, kernel/drivers/video/aty/radeonfb.ko [19:33] Hello [19:33] How do I connect manually (console) to a wireless network? [19:33] and kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon.ko [19:33] peteforsyth_: You are using the open source radeon driver right now :) [19:34] oh :( [19:34] rayno_b: are you stuck with virtualbox? can't you use kvm + virt-manager instead? that would work with your original kernel [19:34] I'm a novice trying to boot xubuntu from the desktop CD on an old generic box with a 1GHz processor and about 512 Mb RAM. After I hit the Xubuntu splash screen, there's a delay and I get a command prompt, even when I boot in safe graphics mode. I asked the question on #xubuntu, but it's pretty dead over there right now. Help! [19:34] peteforsyth_: Isn't that what you wanteD? [19:34] yvan_: this is how my rig is set up i have an old pc that i plan to use as a media server i have installed ubuntu server(all my music files are on the server) and my regular pc has ubuntu [19:34] well, what I want is a working GUI....ultimately [19:34] NamShub, encrypted network? or open? [19:34] WPA [19:34] peteforsyth_: How is your GUI not working? [19:34] so maybe my theory that the restricted drivers were the problem was wrong [19:34] NamShub: on backtrack4 prefinal i must configure my wlancard manually and bring it up manually....i'm a noob.... [19:34] peteforsyth_: What type of card are you using? [19:35] NamShub, first config the interface [19:35] zerozerozero: pretty much the same here, only difference is that my server is anciant and has debian installed [19:35] is Firefox 3.5 for ubuntu up for upgrade - it is up on the official site ? [19:35] after upgrading to jaunty, it goes through the ubuntu logo at the beginning, and then shows two mis-colored ubuntu logos with lots of ugly colored lines on the screen [19:35] NamShub, iwconfig ip_here netmask_here [19:35] just hangs like that forever... [19:35] How long until I'll be prompted to install Firefox 3.5 from the Update Manager? [19:35] ATI technologies inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF [19:35] adi: thankx... [19:35] NamShub, then u add a route [19:35] zerozerozero: I was too damn lazy to figure out what the problem was with rythmbox+samba so when I saw it can use daap shares I went for the easy solution [19:36] NamShub: ok here is the way i'm going: set some stuff up with iwconfig () essid, key, etc - then bring it up with ifconfig - then use dhclient DEVx to connect. i hope my descrition is usefull [19:36] NamShub, route add default gw ip_of_access_point_here [19:36] ok ill also try te same.. [19:36] zerozerozero: are you using rhythmbox by the way? not sure what other players have daap support [19:36] [rip]oink, im sat in a terminal mate?? [19:37] yvan_: yes [19:37] NamShub, after that make a file resolv.conf, write in it the ip of your dns server and put it in /etc [19:37] I'm a novice trying to boot xubuntu from the desktop CD on an old generic box with a 1GHz processor and about 512 Mb RAM. After I hit the Xubuntu splash screen, there's a delay and I get a command prompt, even when I boot in safe graphics mode. I asked the question on #xubuntu, but it's pretty dead over there right now. Is anyone available to give me some assistance? [19:37] yvan_: are there any players that support samba?? [19:37] peteforsyth_: Trying googling? [19:37] I have no idea :( [19:37] sorry dude [19:37] edbian_: any thoughts on that? I'mpretty stumped, have spent hours googling and experimenting...but I'm not much of a linux guru, just follow instrux as best i can [19:38] peteforsyth_: Maybe it's a bad card? [19:38] adi: sorry but I lost you at iwconfig, I dont know what IP i should enter anywhere? [19:38] edbian_: Well I appreciate the help... [19:38] peteforsyth_: Sorry I couldn't hlep more :( [19:38] NamShub, if u write man iwconfig u'll see the commands for autenticate [19:38] zerozerozero: thats cool then, you should have no problems I belive. and as spowers said 2 rhythmboxes can also share music with daap share [19:38] adi ok will try [19:38] Pici: did you follow any of that? [19:38] zerozerozero: ah. make sure to enable the daap plugin under rythmbox though. can save you a lot of time :) [19:39] i didnt expect that to be so complicated :S [19:39] NamShub, do u know the ip of the access point? [19:39] adi: yes [19:39] I incorrectly rebooted an ubuntu box by mistake, and now when it's booted again, the fs appears to be read-only (touch: cannot touch `foo': Read-only file system) even tho it's read-write according to mount (/dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro)! what gives?) [19:39] I guess I have another thought -- is it possible to just put in an Intrepid disc and re-install the OS without wiping out music, photos etc.? [19:40] NamShub, ok, generally u will have a ip from the same class like the access point. if the dhcp it's not enabled on access point [19:40] zerozerozero: rhythmbox should support samba(actually even if it doesn't it should be able to access the share through ~/.gvfs as it is with smplayer), no idea what its problem is on your comp [19:40] Eulex, try running this: sudo mount -o remount,rw / [19:40] How do I find out if I am using ext4 on my Ubuntu install? [19:40] Will I be prompted to install Firefox 3.5 from the Update Manager eventually? [19:40] Mike94287: No. [19:40] !ff35 | Mike94287 [19:40] Mike94287: Firefox 3.5 Final is currently being built and tested for Jaunty. If you install the firefox-3.5 *beta* package from the repos, it will be updated when testing is complete. See also http://is.gd/1jkNY [19:40] NetLarIrvine, have you explicitly enabled it? [19:41] cabrey_, mount: / not mounted already, or bad option [19:41] NetLarIrvine: well its the partition type "use as" default is leave as is think, or ext3 [19:41] NamShub, if the access point it's 192.168.1.1 your ip will be 192.168.1.* (2...or 5...) [19:41] Pici: I thought it was released today [19:41] Yes on the install, but is there a way to verify that I am using it on this install? [19:41] adi: ok but its usually given to me by dhcp [19:41] what forum can i ask about digital image processing? [19:41] or chanel [19:41] NetLarIrvine: at manual partitioning not a guided one [19:41] Like in terminal? [19:42] Mike94287: It was. [19:42] NamShub, if the access point it's 192.168.1.1 u must set the network interface in this way iwconfig wlan0 192.168.1.5 netmask 255.255.255.0 [19:42] NetLarIrvine, try just typing "mount" in terminal - should show you what file system everything is using. [19:42] yvan_: tryed to go via ~/.gvfs still same prolem [19:42] When I do uname -a, it does not say about if I am using ext4 or not [19:42] strange [19:43] Pici: So why wouldn't I be prompted to install it normally. Why do I have to install the beta package? [19:43] NamShub, generally works...depends of how it's maked your network [19:43] zerozerozero: no idea then really, try daap, should do as a workaround [19:43] zerozerozero: file operations work fine? [19:43] yes [19:43] Mike94287, because they don't want to update it because jaunty is 'stable' [19:43] Mike94287: Because we aren't replacing the firefox-3.0 package with the 3.5 package. [19:43] NetLarIrvine, no. try mount in terminal [19:43] NetLarIrvine, u'll see the type of all partition mounted [19:43] adi: unkown command "192.168.1.112" [19:43] netlarirvine try looking at the system monitor [19:43] cabrey_, the same command 'works' on another of my linux boxes (tho which has a proper rw fs) [19:43] yvan_: yes i can play files youing totem mut i need some player that has a library [19:44] NamShub, if u write iwconfig what u get? [19:44] Eulex, ok I would run a fs check [19:44] !fsck | Eulex [19:44] ahh yes, it is ext4 [19:44] Eulex: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot [19:44] thanks guys [19:44] ifconfig [19:44] listing, with wlan0 [19:44] hey guys im trying to burn a .iso to a DVD === cryptide_a is now known as cryptide [19:44] not iwconfig [19:44] but ubuntu wont let me [19:44] any ideas?/ [19:44] !u > adi :-) [19:44] hoolz, what do you mean it won't let you? are you grounded? [19:44] DoYouKnow, ifconfig it's for wired interface [19:45] no [19:45] it gives me an error saying it cant copy [19:45] iwconfig it's for wi-fi interface [19:45] adi_, no, ifconfig works for wireless too [19:45] or not? [19:45] ok never mind you didnt get that reference [19:45] is it because im missing a codec or a lib? [19:45] anyone here know how to install a usb wireless adapter with a cd, its a belkin F5D7051 [19:45] you set the ip address and netmask with iwconfig [19:45] Guys is it possible to install Intrepid on a (broken) Jaunty system without losing user data? If so, what's the general process? [19:45] hoolz, what software are you using? [19:45] hoolz: Did you read the How To Burn an ISO at Ubuntu website? [19:45] DoYouKnow, yes, depends [19:45] you set the ssid and other access point settings in iwconfig [19:45] err [19:45] zerozerozero: strange, no idea.

Try either "opentracker" and see if it works or "cd opentracker" then "./opentracker". [20:59] vigo, don't know what debug logs are, where they are, how to view them, or how to interpret them [20:59] klenz: you can mount 'samba shares' from /etc/fstab - yes... [20:59] jillsmitt: I like geany :) [20:59] klenz: /etc/fstab [20:59] mdg, nah [20:59] twig11: somethings wrong with the disk [20:59] Do I need to completely reinstall firefox to get 3.5? I'm running the 3.0.11 version that came with Ubuntu and it hasn't updated itself yet. [20:59] just wanted to know if it worked out for him [20:59] xiong: here: http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/b1a4ol61.html.en [20:59] bad burn maybe [20:59] do i have to edit a file in there for it to automount? [21:00] Is Ubuntu upgrading to Firefox 3.5 in the jaunty repo? [21:00] klenz: /etc/fstab is a file [21:00] twig11: do you have the disk you used on your dell [21:00] klenz: so there is no "file in there" [21:00] thanks ZykoticK9 [21:00] twig11: see if that works [21:00] my update manager shows my package info is 80 days old and yet has no updates to be installed also i ran the update manually still it shows the same ...how do fix this ? [21:00] * xiong looks [21:00] Firefox always upgraded itself fine in windows [21:00] twig11: then you will knoe [21:00] xiong: and here: http://library.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/bugs.html.en [21:00] Yerzriknot: Yeah ubuntu is going to push out firefox 3.5 in 9.10 (in october). If you download firefox 3.5 from the website (get a .deb file) you can have it now. You don't need to remove firefox 3.0.11 (or whatever it is). [21:00] Does it not do that in linux? [21:00] im sorry im not to keen on linux im looking for etc/fstab now [21:00] OK [21:00] Yerzriknot: yes it does [21:01] I didn't see a .deb file on mozilla's site [21:01] edbian: firefox does not do a deb [21:01] gogeta: It kicks me to the text with xubuntu 7.04 and with Ubuntu 9.04 (and that CD is an original from Canonical. [21:01] klenz : look for /etc/fstab [21:01] Yerzriknot: A .tar.gz will work too but it's slightly more annoying to install. [21:01] kbrosnan: Thank you :) [21:01] my update manager shows my package info is 80 days old and yet has no updates to be installed also i ran the update manually still it shows the same ...how do fix this ? [21:01] But Firefox wont upgrade itself on its own? [21:01] i dont have that file [21:01] xiong: and here: http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/developer.shtml < Does anyone know how to setup Ubuntu to fallback to local password/shadow files if LDAP fails?

[21:02] pronoy try in terminal: sudo apt-get update [21:02] !who | klenz [21:02] klenz: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) [21:02] machinebacon: that is manual update !! [21:02] klenz : open a terminal .. [21:02] sooo... how many more hours do i have to get support for dapper on the desktop? [21:02] Yerzriknot: It will eventually. In ubuntu (all of linux really) updates are handled by the package manager. It checks what version of a program you're running vs. what is available in the repos. If it is newer in the repos it will tell you. The ubuntu developers just haven't put the latest firefox in there yet. [21:02] Yerzriknot: They will in 9.10 [21:03] I have an acer one running 9.04 UNR. Everything has been running fine till today. I get the login screen. After the login I get just the desktop background. Switching to tty1 shows: "kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot..." [21:03] DasEi ok [21:03] i feel ignored with my extended desktop question, does anyone know a bit about it? [21:03] klenz : gedit /etc/fstab [21:03] mickster04: how you coming along? [21:03] twig11: ok strange [21:03] DasEi: system date is correct and foreign mirrors ? i just have the standard repo should be updating on its own..also i am running intrepid [21:03] pronoy sry [21:03] !ff35 | edbian Yerzriknot [21:03] edbian Yerzriknot: Firefox 3.5 Final is currently being built and tested for Jaunty.

See also http://is.gd/1jkNY [21:03] vigo, that is way too much info; i'm a raw noob [21:03] twig11: why it isnt accepting manual start is also confusing me [21:03] DasEi ok i got the file [21:03] Yerzriknot: Well what do you know! I was wrong :P [21:03] vigo, wait til i absorb this 'debug log' stuff [21:04] ubottu: It's no longer a beta [21:04] machinebacon: m running intrepid..could that be a reason ?

[21:04] DasEi yes not to sure what to do next [21:04] Yerzriknot: That package will become firefox 3.5 final once we complete testing. [21:04] ZykoticK9: how did you get your version of mysql-server? From the repos? What version of Ubuntu, what version of mysql-server? [21:04] !details | klenz [21:04] klenz: Please give us full details. For example: "I have a problem with ..., I'm running Ubuntu version .... When I try to do ..., I get the following output: ..., but I expected it to do ..." [21:04] gogeta: is there any way this could be a hardware problem? [21:04] DasEi do i create a mount point in mnt then point the file to it [21:05] vigo, i agree that learning is fun but i have only a limited amount of time -- also, i'm not sure i care for evolution but the more popular client is thunderbird [21:05] Pici: my update manager shows my package manager is 80 days old...how do i fix it...intrepid and update done manually...... [21:05] I get no picture on my Samsung 260T display, connected through HDMI on a Sony Vaio, display works with xbox360 and Vaio w/ Vista, tried "xrandr --output HDMI-0 --auto", still black on monitor. Suggestions anybody? Heeelp! :) [21:05] DasEibasically i have a media file stored on my mac that is share via smb i want to auto mount it [21:05] klenz: Either in /mnt or in /media.

[21:06] ZykoticK9: Ok, the same. I guess my 4 machines are unique then..... [21:06] klenz : I assume you want to mount a partiton permanently; yes, you create a dir somewhere in your filesystem and then tell fstab whicht parti to mount there [21:06] anyone know how to set systemtime from terminal without user authentication? [21:06] hello... can anybody help me with launchpad please? How do I report this bug upstream? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/epiphany-browser/+bug/195359 [21:06] thanks! [21:06] Pici even after apt-get update package manager informs that its package info is 80 days old [21:06] !fstab | klenz [21:06] I have this shiretoko web browser I want to remove. How do I do it?

See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions [21:06] Pici: running "sudo apt-get update / upgrade" is the manual way to update the system.

If you *need* to install, the firefox-3.5 *beta* package from the repositories will be updated when testing is complete. See also http://is.gd/1jkNY [21:07] vigo, i've already made the report -- but it seems it needs to be filed upstream. Just, I don't know how to do it. [21:07] pronoy: I'm not sure why that is, what happens if you press the update button on update-manager? [21:07] by the way, I am kinda new, butdo have some cpm exprience [21:07] TheNewGuy: what kind of pc? [21:07] edbian: i have a script rmmod pcspkr [21:08] pronoy: Wanna give it to me? Or just give me a jist of the code? [21:08] fdr: The folks in #ubuntu-bugs should be able to explain the proper upstream reporting procedure [21:08] edbian: actually that's not a script ..sorry its jst a command [21:08] pronoy: Even better!! [21:08] mgd duel core compatible [21:08] Pici, thanks [21:08] Pici: did that..same thing [21:08] DasEi ok i have a boxee media center pc and all my movies/music is on my mac desktop i have that media folder share via smb over the network from my mac i would like it to automount on my htpc so i dont have to manually do it everytime i want to run boxee [21:08] ZykoticK9: desktop, right? [21:08] JorgeJorgesson, yup [21:08] desk tip [21:08] desk top [21:08] how do I change the language (GUI and console) after the installation ( I saw :To set up and configure your locales, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf, but wasn't able to accomplish anything) [21:08] ZykoticK9: ok.....I tried! [21:08] TheNewGuy 32 or 64 bit? [21:09] edbian: i added it to rc.local so that it removes it at boot...really really irritating you know [21:09] 32 [21:09] (unfortunatly) [21:09] pronoy: Yes, IDK why linux loves the PC speaker sooo much. They are irritating as hell. [21:09] bad speller :-X [21:09] klenz : right, so you can already mount it successfully by hand ? [21:09] DasEi yes [21:09] TheNewGuy usually the command is sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | hopefully it works ;) [21:10] vigo, debug logs are empty [21:10] klenz : by which cmd ? [21:10] TheNewGuy: try to keep it in one line buddy or floodbot will jump u [21:10] JorgeJorgesson, you have checked that it has a checkmark in System / Admin / Services - Database server (mysql) ? [21:10] Hey guys, I'm on gentoo. You know the application usb-creator? I wanted to use that over gentoo, does anyone know an alternative? [21:10] or something/ [21:10] DasEi well i go to network and then find it via the gui [21:10] ZykoticK9: I tried everything and it will just not start automatically. I searched in #mysql, #ubuntu-server, #ubuntu....no luck. You are the only one that I've met that have it working. [21:10] TheNewGuy: You have to remove all the flash packages except the one you want to use. If you don't they sort of block each other out and it is difficult to get the system to use the one you want. [21:10] ok, will try it out .. .and one line. also What is sudu? [21:10] ZykoticK9: yup [21:10] TheNewGuy i'm afraid gnash is already in firefox [21:10] Hi, what does the rule have to be so I can allow access to port 80 from selected IPs? [21:10] DasEi basically i use nautillus to find it [21:10] pronoy: I'm not sure whats going on with that, sorry. [21:10] mangospork, compile from source? [21:10] xiong: Then that needs filing. or did you also see the #ubuntu-bugs channel that was posted a moment ago? [21:10] klenz : so do that now, and get it mounted [21:11] !sudo [21:11] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) [21:11] i have a question [21:11] Allow access to HTTP only from selected IPs [21:11] Pici you won't believe this but i did the apt-get install again and the update using manager and it totally work...Hahaha..how did you do that :)...lol [21:11] Yournam, deny from all, allow ip,ip,ip [21:11] JorgeJorgesson, I'm affraid I have no other suggestions for you. Sorry man - it just works for me out of the box???

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [21:11] TheNewGuy trry to remove gnash first [21:11] ZykoticK9: good for you! Glad it worked. [21:11] yeah i know sorry didnt mean to just really blazed [21:11] can i un-install gnash? [21:12] Yournam, you need to edit a configuration file, the vhost to be more specific (assuming you're using apache) [21:12] TheNewGuy: sudo apt-get remove gnash [21:12] i just installed vsftpd [21:12] Yournam: iptables, hosts.allow, hosts.deny [21:12] JorgeJorgesson, "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql status" does it show Stopped?

Does not start [21:12] and disbled anonymoud login but i can still login anonymusly [21:12] klenz :(terminal) sudo apt-get install pastebinit [21:12] DasEi: I know what needs to be done, I'm just trying to get the syntax to "allow access from this IP only to port 80" [21:12] JorgeJorgesson, it won't start? "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start" what output do you get? [21:12] DasEi: On iptables i mean [21:13] when i update i get the message that certain sources are being ignored because of a lack of GPG keys.. where can i get these from? [21:13] ZykoticK9: Sure it starts, just not on bootup [21:13] Hi, I want to add a line in grub to boot windows. However, I don't know how to figure out what drive to use. The examples I look at use hd1 or hd0 in the grub config, but my drive is /dev/sdb1 in linux. what is it in grub? [21:13] couldnt find pastebinit [21:13] Ok, so... Im trying to start an executable via terminal... now, at times before I could get ./[executable-name] (without []'s) to work (while in the directory of the executable). But now it just says no such file or directory... however, it should work, because its installed and such... [21:13] JorgeJorgesson, ok - just checking. [21:13] I just cannot figure out how to map from a hard drive like /dev/sdb1 to a grub name for the drive [21:13] ZykoticK9: no problem, appreciated [21:13] Yournam: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo [21:13] DasEi couldnt find package pastebinit [21:14] kamokow: you are in the folder containing the executable?

The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/index.php?page=add | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic [21:14] kamokow: ok in know this is really basic..are you sure that executable exists in the dir ? or maybe permissions are changed [21:14] vigo, did *not* see but will join bugs chan, ty [21:14] it should exist -.- [21:14] DasEi: It's not in there on how to selective allow [21:14] DasEi ok i know about paste bin what file should i pasttebin [21:14] ZykoticK9: unfortunately, XP works.

[23:39] mubu: a few days would be my guess [23:39] partly because suspend and hibernate and all that works perfectly, partly because of the 7 hour battery, partly because each time linux breaks i don't have to reinstall or get frustrated and upgrade etc. [23:39] COOLKID4EVER: wow, nice name =/ [23:39] bastidrazor, bash: /urs/bin/gnome-app-install: No such file or directory [23:39] jrib, alright, thanks. cant wait [23:39] D= [23:39] hi, i didnt change anything, and my boot loader causes an ERROR 17 [23:39] guys [23:39] jrib: I have uptimes of weeks =/ [23:39] jrib: If you *need* to install, the firefox-3.5 *beta* package from the repositories will be updated when testing is complete.

[23:47] cool, whats vim? [23:47] A little googling is your friend [23:47] MK13: aptitude search '~i~nnvidia' [23:47] vim is and editor, just like emacs [23:47] and nano [23:47] I disagree that apt is what you should always use, jrib [23:47] TheNewGuy: Cli editor [23:48] PlasmaSheep, it creates less opportunity to break tings [23:48] +h [23:48] joining [23:48] bastidrazor: so?

[23:48] PlasmaSheep: apt 4 life === jono_ is now known as jono [23:49] i prefer emerge to apt [23:49] I prefer pacman to emerge =D [23:49] PlasmaSheep: yes it does :) [23:49] thx coley i followed ur instruction [23:49] PlasmaSheep: emrerge [23:49] eh pacman is fast [23:49] but emerge i still like better [23:49] gogeta: you talk about 'keybords' and use '4' instead of 'for', so excuse me if I don't take you seriously. [23:49] thats gentoo [23:49] jschiff, do I need special software to run multi-touch on hp ? I mean with the linux not with the ugly op that comes with it. [23:49] PlasmaSheep: apt is what you should always use. i say this as a former Senior Ubuntu System Support Analyst for Canonical. you are welcome to disagree, but i think my opinion and experience carries more weight. [23:49] DarkMage26, open office should already support 2007 .docx documents [23:49] TheNewGuy: it takes a bit of work to make multi touch work on it [23:49] mneptok: Do you play many games?

[23:50] that's the linux kernel [23:51] thanks. [23:51] PlasmaSheep: the fact that games aren't packaged for Debian doesn;t mean you should not use apt whenever possible. full stop. [23:51] mneptok: then you wouldn't notice that there are no up to date games in apt except solitaire and wurms [23:51] Do a lot of you have dual boot machines?? [23:51] DarkMage26, i never had it ask me... just select one and trial and error [23:51] mdg yeah :D altho i realised i hadnt actually checked if it was properly roken... [23:51] need i permisions for execute mv command ? [23:51] multi touch support was introduced in the 2.6.30 kernel, most distros right now are using 2.6.29 [23:51] PlasmaSheep: see above [23:51] thanks everyone, very helpful! bye [23:51] jeu [23:51] hey [23:51] i have dual boot [23:51] MK13, thanks. [23:51] NetLarIrvine: yes [23:51] mdg i assumed that cos it hadnt said i had plugged the thing in, it was broken :/ [23:51] What I'm saying is that you can't, nor should always use apt. [23:51] what is the name of the GTK+ diff tool in ubuntu repos [23:51] mdg but it works now brilliantly [23:51] I just did not see any reason anymore to keep windoes [23:51] mickster04: Excellent! [23:51] let you find the differences in two files [23:51] I always used apt when i was on ubuntu PlasmaSheep [23:51] I still use windows for school [23:51] emet: meld I think [23:51] PlasmaSheep: apt is what you should use *wnerevr possible* [23:52] I can use Virtual box if I really have to [23:52] jschiff: your loss [23:52] yes it's meld thank you [23:52] *whenever [23:52] how is it my loss? [23:52] I don't have sound in ogg-theora videos in firefox 3.5 on hardy with pulseaudio. is there a way to resolve this problem? [23:52] NetLarIrvine: GAMES [23:52] mneptok: well, that's different :P [23:52] jschiff: repos not always up to date [23:52] what can any other package manager on ubuntu do better then raw apt? [23:52] ciao [23:52] I have a USB keyboard plugged into my laptop. Unfortuantely, the USB keyboard has a poorly-placed power button. How can I either prevent ubuntu from powering down when it's hit, or force it to always use suspend instead of shutdown or restart? [23:52] <-- horrible game player [23:52] PlasmaSheep: dissing apt on a deb based distro should be a banning [23:52] you can add 3rd part repos [23:52] !list [23:52] This is not a file sharing channel (or network). If you're looking for information about me, type « /msg ubottu !bot » [23:52] Netlarirvine are you good with windows [23:52] as i often do for things like wine [23:52] gogeta: the abuse you inflict on the English language deserve a ban [23:52] because the wine that is in the ubuntu repo's is horribly outdated and sucks [23:52] Have not used it full time for like 10 years now [23:53] Been on a Mac for long time now [23:53] jschiff: not every little program has a repository [23:53] most do [23:53] ah i c [23:53] name one that doesn't [23:53] im in school for computer networking [23:53] Firefox. [23:53] I've been hearing a lot, lately, about synaptic being substantially better/more reliable for dist-upgrades than apt. This botehres me. [23:53] i hope to learn security wth linux [23:53] Virtual Box seems stable enough now [23:53] im using backtrack right now [23:53] !ot [23:53] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [23:53] firefox is plenty up to date [23:53] puff: what do you mean by "dist-upgrade" exactly? [23:53] jschiff: really? [23:53] and 3.5? [23:54] jrib: admittedly, that's part of the problem with apt. [23:54] yep [23:54] ppa repo [23:54] how secure is ubuntu from the box, what about firewall settings, and temp stuff from browsers? [23:54] COOLKID4EVER I use Parallels on my mac [23:54] pm me:D [23:54] jschiff: nexuiz. [23:54] Tremulous. [23:54] getdeb.com [23:54] !pm | mickster04 [23:54] mickster04: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can help you, benefit from your questions and answers and ensure that you're not getting bad advice. Please note that some people find it rude to be sent a PM without being asked for permission to do so first. [23:54] jschiff: not there. [23:54] yes it is [23:54] nexuiz 2.5.1 is on getdeb [23:55] mickster04: ubuntu has no services listening on any ports by default so it's secure in that respect [23:55] Except it never works. [23:55] worked for me [23:55] and of course when your installing a deb your using apt [23:55] Segfaults for me and fails for almost everyone else. [23:55] Net i dont know anything about mac [23:55] And tremulous? [23:55] jrib, i guess i have used apt-get clean since installing them, thnx anyway [23:55] Turkce [23:55] jrib oh ok, what about open ports etc [23:55] bilen [23:55] varmı [23:55] ? [23:55] I just know about windows [23:55] phisliqshey: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:55] i have one directory that i backed up onto an extHDD some time ago, and i want to have a command print what new files there are, which ones have changed and which ones are missing. which command do i use? [23:55] COOLKID4EVER it is stable and works well enough [23:55] And blender? [23:55] blender is in apt [23:55] linduxed: no idea but I would see if rsync can do that [23:55] linduxed: cat /path/to/directory [23:56] Yes, if a dinosaur is acceptable. [23:56] i think ubuntu is 1 subversion down [23:56] nope [23:56] blender 2.49 is latest [23:56] ubuntu has 2.48 [23:56] ah i c [23:56] jschiff: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:56] i played with the new window 7 [23:56] Which isn't the one in repos unless it's been updated recently. [23:56] okay [23:56] COOLKID4EVER always been torn between ubuntu and os x [23:56] and in which case you can download the latest version from blender.org [23:56] osx [23:56] COOLKID4EVER how do you like MS 7 [23:56] jrib: will check [23:56] ;0 [23:56] ;0 [23:56] gogeta: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:56] what are your dislikes about ubuntu? [23:57] lol [23:57] You can't hope to argue that apt/repos always has the most recent version of EVERYTHING. [23:57] That's ridiculous. [23:57] jrib: A dist-upgrade is how you go from, say, intrepid to jaunty. [23:57] it is ok very similar to vista [23:57] Not even mneptok will agree I'm sure. [23:57] COOLKID4EVER, most ppl prolly have already messed w/ win7 (beta/RC) :D [23:57] COOLKID4EVER does not have all the software I need [23:57] !backups > linduxed [23:57] linduxed, please see my private message [23:57] i'm saying that anything usefull is ridiculously easy to get [23:57] and all through apt [23:57] linduxed: that may be something you are interested in as well [23:57] PlasmaSheep, please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic [23:57] yea mk13 [23:57] how can I upgrade a library manually? compiling, etc... just compile that? remove old? [23:57] Wow, way to be objective. [23:57] ah i c [23:57] barely ever do i have to compile my own packages [23:57] COOLKID4EVER there is some software that I use that only work on mac or windows [23:57] HOW ARE YOU UBUNTEROS!? [23:57] i had to do it once for libuvc because i wanted to tweak with the source [23:58] like which software? [23:58] jrib: hmmm i liked those [23:58] Quicken and iTunes come to mind and some special business software [23:58] When I am playing a game, such as bzflag or Nexuiz, my arrow keys seem to "get stuck". [23:58] clean your keyboard ;) [23:58] lol [23:58] NetLarIrvine: itunes wine can do [23:58] ;0 [23:58] oh i c [23:59] I have replaced by keyboard. [23:59] TDJACR: wired or wireless? [23:59] iTunes in wine is useless [23:59] Wired [23:59] hm [23:59] supports ipods fine [23:59] my* [23:59] TDJACR: Whatever it is, the solution is in apt, since apt always has the most recent version of everything useful. [23:59] gogeta Bronze in wine? [23:59] what i noticed about ubuntu is that is seems to crash alot [23:59] now your just being arrogant PlasmaSheep :) [23:59] COOLKID4EVER: it does?
