[00:43] nwc_neo, depends on what kind of "image" [00:44] then when you find all the right software to replace your windows apps, put windows in a corner and set it on fire [00:44] gmachine_24: .psd file [00:44] Fireworks is largely superior for web-based graphics, Corel Painter is great for whipping stuff up, and Photoshop is probably best for editing photographs. [00:44] Counterspell: check the package manager.. proberly somthing replaced it [00:44] hi, does anybody know if it's possible to use "cryptsetup luksOpen UUID=..." instead of "cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sd.."? [00:44] nwc_neo: I use gimp for all of my web image editing :) [00:44] does anyone know of a good web development ide for ubuntu ? [00:44] libpurple [00:44] ? [00:44] pixlbox: gedit and firefox :) [00:44] nui? [00:44] with UUID its not possible, but is there a similar way? [00:44] nwc,neo then I would say GIMP. Which should be installed as part of the basic Ubuntu install [00:44] BLUEFISH!!! [00:44] pixlbox: netbeans runs well [00:45] the perfect way to learn xhtml, among others [00:45] pixlbox: NVU [00:45] pixlbox: bluefish works too :) [00:45] pixlbox: I say the vim is good. [00:45] nwc_neo, GIMP ftw [00:45] The non of the ATI drivers for older cards work with xorg-xserver 1.6 in Jaunty. Does anyone know of a work around to use anything other than the default open source drivers? Could I somehow roll back to xorg-xserver from Hardy? [00:45] pixlbox: I'm using aptana, its better for js development [00:45] NVU is wysiwyg [00:45] oh right cool [00:45] bluefish is raw sourdce editing, but it includes menus for every possible tag [00:46] and little template wizards [00:46] nwc_neo ...did you get that?? [00:46] pixie79: http://nvu.com [00:46] nfs help! :) how do I determine my name instead of using the ip address??? [00:46] rjmoore1: you're about what ? [00:46] Just for the record, the Mozilla software package also has an html editor. It's not as good as NVU and some others, IMO, but for the record [00:46] but I prefer Flex/AIR anyway [00:46] ??? [00:46] menu for all tags sounds very useful :) [00:46] rjmoore1: Aptana ? [00:46] did you get hat link?? [00:46] I can't be bothered to screw with javascript, given that it sucks ass for most of my use cases. [00:46] hat link? [00:46] yeah, for the fossil record [00:46] the how too's I read say a name can be used, but it isn't really clear to me how to determine that name. [00:47] talking ubuntu, are we? [00:47] yup, with everything closed its 500-600mb. (xp is 300mb) so i must make logical conclusion that my ubuntu has virus, which is why its taking so much ram. [00:47] shane2peru, local network? [00:47] that link?? [00:47] lol [00:47] you realize how old the mozilla suite is? [00:47] and then is mangles the source when you save a file! [00:47] Using javascript for anything other than mouse overs and/or form validation is like trying to build a house with toothpicks. [00:47] !virus | samosa_ [00:47] samosa_: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [00:47] samosa_: nice name btw [00:47] phoenixandthor, lol..... I was just sayin'.... [00:47] also I keep getting this error: mount.nfs: mount system call failed What am I missing?? [00:47] uck yeah [00:47] ubuntu can't have a virus [00:47] samosas are so good [00:47] ubuntu virus??? dont be silly [00:47] dragon_: !joke/sarcasm > dragon_ [00:47] ubuntu can have a virus [00:48] :) [00:48] lolol!!! what about a phone you could SMELL through!! [00:48] aww [00:48] phoenixandthor: it was replaced with SeaMonkey, which last released 15 days ago. [00:48] !ot [00:48] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [00:48] phoenixandthor: There are viruses for ubuntu but they are all proof of concept. None free in the wild. [00:48] bot sux [00:48] hmm am I connected? [00:48] shane2peru: You are! [00:48] shane2peru: if we say no.. what would that mean? [00:48] Hey, I have a dvd and it says I don't have permision, I@m using 9.04 and have installed libdvdread4, what else do I need???? [00:48] there has to be some kind of script or daemon running in the backround [00:48] samosa_: think you can write top in a command and check which program that uses that much ram? [00:48] has anyone ever messed around with hadoop [00:48] samosa_: lol i'd call it a bug [00:48] !dvd | light__ [00:48] light__: 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 [00:49] it also depends on your hardware. 300-400MB of ram is about normal [00:49] sebsebseb: wahey [00:49] light__, you need that libcss thingy... [00:49] hadoop...hahah [00:49] :) [00:49] light__: libdvdcss2 [00:49] Anyone know of a workaround for ATI drivers not working with 9.04, at least for old cards? [00:49] Kjell: thats the problem, there is a list of system files that dont dont that much ram, but there are so many as a whole they have large sum. [00:49] light__: specifically, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs#Installing%20libdvdcss [00:50] upgrade you card @ jb510? [00:50] jb510: if you feel brave, you can check out this http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Jaunty_Installation_Guide [00:50] @phoenix - laptop :) [00:50] it says that if I install it, it will conflict with other software [00:50] jb510: By "ATI drivers", you mean fglrx? There isn't one. The older versions of fglrx don't support the current version of Xorg. [00:50] libdvdcss2 that is [00:50] jb510: ati removed many cards from their fglrx drivers. those cards are now supported by the ati/radeon gpl drivers.. theres no work around for that.. if thats what you mean. ( [00:50] samosa_: Do you run any server? [00:50] If you are using the kubuntu varient, I suggest reinstall the normal ubuntu release [00:51] and cpu usage 20% wtf? (<---- e7200 @ 3.00ghz. its should be using like 0.0001%) [00:51] webpigeon_laptop: heh [00:51] hadoop ? anyone ever messed around with it [00:51] Kjell: no [00:51] pm me pls [00:51] hey you fucking faggots what's up? [00:51] wth [00:51] I just installed ubuntu today lol [00:51] I was wondering if I could roll back xorg-xserver but keep 9.04... is that insane? [00:51] uh oh [00:51] samosa_: firefox on linux is a resource hog :( [00:51] hey guys...how do i back up my mail? is there a program for that? [00:51] im roling a joint [00:51] jb510, yes, insane [00:51] you realize how many config files you'll have to deit? [00:51] edbian: forget firefox [00:52] I'm still new to linux... I figured that, but figured I'd ask... [00:52] edit^ [00:52] typ30n3gativ3: depends on where it's stored right now [00:52] i can say tht right? [00:52] L3d: Please stay on topic [00:52] edbian: how much ram does ubuntu take with no programs running? [00:52] samosa_, you dissin firefox? [00:52] I have a load of e-mail - about 300 or so and wanted to archive it, put it on a seperate drive [00:52] samosa_: Strange then. [00:52] samosa_: You're just idling ? For me a little less than 200mb typically [00:52] After installing the ATI driver on 9.04, xorg has a tendency of maxing the cpu, can anyone help with this ? [00:52] phoenixandthor: Neveh. [00:52] When I first start up the machine sometimes under 150. [00:52] rww: i'm using kmail [00:52] it never releases the cpu either until a logout/in [00:52] ok, am I connected now? [00:52] why are my ubuntu I dont even [00:53] shane2peru: yes you are [00:53] I'm having a problem related to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gthumb/+bug/34077 [00:53] shane2peru, no ;) [00:53] shane2peru: Again, yes. You have been. [00:53] It appears that the bug is resolved but I'm not seeing my photos and F-spot can't impor tthem. [00:53] hadoop? no one has ever set it up ? [00:53] What if god was one of us? [00:53] who was the one with the rediculous claim the ubuntu has a virus? [00:53] typ30n3gativ3: ah, okay. I haven't used kmail in a while, so I'm not sure how to do it, but I think there'sa File > Save Message command or something like that. Perhaps the #kubuntu people would know, since it's a KDE app. [00:53] benni: Please stay on topic [00:53] pixlbox: I'm curious what you're going to do with it. [00:54] ok what is the topic [00:54] !topic | benni [00:54] benni: Please read the channel topic whenever you enter, as it contains important information. To view it at any time after joining, simply type /topic [00:54] let me look for that....brb [00:54] benni, /topic for the channel topic [00:54] phoenixandthor: depends on your definition I suppose [00:54] word o days .. gaze [00:54] does someone know a good dns free service for my home server? [00:54] phoenixandthor: I said there are some proof of concept viruses but none in the wild. Are you talking about me? [00:54] dewente: dyndns.org [00:54] dewente, dyndns.com [00:54] ShortWave i have quite a few old computers and wanted to hook them together as like a backup drive thingy [00:54] hi [00:54] that one is no longer free !! Dyndns [00:54] how can i create log? and like pastebin it or something, cuz i cant tell difference between services which are important/ and those which are unneccesary. [00:55] you are too nice I can't even troll you what's wrong with you guys [00:55] ;_; [00:55] Can someone tell me how to get the keyring from coming up for my network connection everytime I start my PC? [00:55] stupid trolls. [00:55] samosa_, logs are in /var/log [00:55] i heard that hadoop is kinda that same as google GFS [00:55] Why does NetworkManager exist for? it seems to conflict with /etc/network/interfaces [00:55] cabrey: He's talking about making a list of the processes running. [00:55] ok thanks [00:55] Where does Ubuntu mount a camera when you plug it into a USB cable? I dont' see it showing up under /media [00:55] darnell: you bsically use the config tools to set the password it asks for to be blank. :) i found the answer in the forums [00:55] samosa_: Are there a few that you're unsure about that you could ask? [00:55] phix, that is the old debian way of manually managing network interfaces [00:55] puff: it becomes /dev/video [00:56] does someone know a good dns free service for my home server? [00:56] pixlbox: "Google GFS"? Or Redhat GFS? [00:56] rww: do you know of any back-up software that can do it? the 'save as ' option only gets 1 message, not the whole branch [00:56] phix: because /etc/network/interfaces isn't user-friendly. If you want to use it, go ahead, and NetworkManager should get out of the way. [00:56] edbian: what is your total physical ram? [00:56] phix, nm automatically configures network interfaces now [00:56] 1Gb [00:56] does anyone know about nfs setup? [00:56] dewente, dyndns or no-ip [00:56] typ30n3gativ3: you can't select multiple messages and then do that? I swear I did something similar last time I was moving mail around. [00:56] edbian: ah, well that explains allot. [00:56] i read it was a very good copy of googles GFS [00:56] th0r: Don't see it there. This is a standard digital still camera, canon powershot a520. [00:56] samosa_: Such as? [00:56] Dr.Willis: How do I do that? [00:56] let me try that.... [00:56] I have a HSPDA / UTMS wireless connection to my ISP, I use a sierra USB dongle and NetworkManager likes to delete /dev/ttyUSB[0-2] entries for me, stuffing up my connection [00:56] darnell: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7470795 [00:56] Okay, the text is moving a little too fast for me [00:56] what is the source for devde [00:56] puff: ah....those should mount as usb drives [00:56] cabrey, dyndns is no longer free [00:56] in #ubuntu-offtopic [00:56] darnell: remove the keyring password. It isn't safe though. [00:56] Dr.Willis: thank you! [00:57] puff: have you turned on the camera? [00:57] hellow everyone [00:57] I see it in lsusb, but how do I see where it's mounted? [00:57] I keep getting errors after having been through the documentation [00:57] macman_, you want the source code? [00:57] dewente, http://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/ according to here it still has a free service [00:57] rww: NetworkManager deletes stuff from /dev [00:57] darnell: you run the connfig tool that lets you change the keyring password and enter blank passwords for the 'new' password [00:57] edbian: the more ram you have the more it takes. I have 2GB...so it takes more ram at idle....i am guessing 4GB ubuntu machine at idle will take a gig at idle? [00:57] dewente: I'm currently using it to host my site. You can get a sub-domain for free. [00:57] dewente, their updating service is free, I use it [00:57] th0r: yeah, it's on and it's in playback mode. [00:57] how do I determine the computer name, so I don't have to use the IP address? [00:57] puff: mount should show if it is mounted [00:57] cabrey: no i want to apt-get install devde [00:57] hey [00:57] macman_, it is devede [00:57] yes I used to use too [00:57] samosa_: It isn't that cut and dry but generally yes. The more ram you have the more ubuntu will use. [00:57] phix, no it doesnt [00:57] but now they change their politic [00:57] i have Ubuntu x64 n i need flash player [00:57] rww: also, if I setup a wireless network interface in NetworkManager, do I need to login for it to auto connect? [00:57] shane2peru: for samba you mean? or somthing else? [00:57] dragon: why isn't it safe? It doesn't come up on my laptop [00:57] pixlbox: So you know that "hadoop" is like a suite of things right? [00:57] darnell, easier yet, in the connection properties put a checkmark "available for all users" [00:57] anyone use sbackup? [00:58] cabrey: it doesn't? [00:58] Dr_Willis: NFS, sorry, should have specified that. [00:58] usser: Thank you [00:58] samosa_: 1GB & 200 at idle does not necessarily mean 4GB and 800 @ idle [00:58] cabrey: it is deleting /dev entries though [00:58] samosa_, using ram is good [00:58] th0r: mount shows a lot of stuff, but none of it jumps out at me as the camera... [00:58] jonex: I'd recommend the alpha of flash 10 [00:58] when I open the terminal it should be what appears after the @ symbol correct Dr_Willis? [00:58] !flash | jonex ...

[00:59] !flash | jonex [00:59] darnell: keyring encrypts your passwords so that no one else could gain access to it. without keyring, if someone gains access to your machine, they will be able to see your passwords in clear text.

[00:59] !firewall | L3d [00:59] L3d: 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 [00:59] macman_, what version of ubuntu are you on? [00:59] Dr_Willis: ok, I assume I can google up an example host file? is that /etc/host file? [00:59] L3d, you don't really need an antivirus here [00:59] L3d: you preoberly dont need either.. [01:00] samosa_: What you should notice is that 200mb at idle but it is nearly impossible to max out your ram. Try opening as many thing as you possibly can. I can never seem to get over 500 mb [01:00] rww: no, it has a SIM card in it [01:00] jonex: one second, I'm googling it [01:00] ok [01:00] L3d, this is not windows ^.^ [01:00] !av [01:00] A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [01:00] rww: you da man!! that worked. saved a 162mb file with extension 'mbox' [01:00] shane2peru: its a simple file layout. I tend to cheat and use the 'findsmb' command to give me the basic info when making my own. :) [01:00] phix: oh, that type of wireless. no idea about that. === nwc_neo is now known as jesirobendebua [01:00] !virus | L3d [01:00] L3d: please see above [01:00] rww: GPRS / HSDPA / that other one, UMTS or something [01:00] I'm trying to dual boot Linux and XP. I've installed XP first on an IDE drive (sdb) and I've installed Ubuntu on the SATA (sda). Installation for both went fine, but upon boot, selecting the XP option yeilds the following "Starting up..." then the screen blinks (as it's handing it off) then it stays at a "black" screen and does nothing. I must power the computer off/on. Any ideas ? Here's my menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [01:00] 212293/ [01:00] shane2peru: ip.address hostname is about all there is to it. [01:01] typ30n3gativ3: awesome. glad i could help :) [01:01] rww: thx again - gotta go [01:01] Dragon; thanks for info. [01:01] cabrey: so any ideas? [01:01] Dr_Willis: that kind of defeats the dhcp setup [01:01] th0r: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/212309/ [01:01] tristanmike: could you confirm that pastebin link? [01:01] phix, i didnt see any of your replies [01:01] Dr_Willis: everything keeps pointing me to setup static IP's on my lan [01:02] shane2peru, setup a dns server [01:02] phix, give me a quick summary [01:02] tristanmike: ive seen systems where if you have an ide and sata drive and boot one or the other the drive 'order' switches.. sda became sdb and so on. You COULD just tell the bios to boot the windows hard drive directly bypassing grub. [01:02] shane2peru: my router lets me be sure the machines always get the same ip. So basicially they are static. [01:02] jonex: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-Adobe-Flash-Player-64-bit-on-Ubuntu-8-10-98076.shtml [01:02] dragon_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/212293/ [01:02] shane2peru: so it does not defate dhcp. :) they still get the other info from dhcp. [01:02] Dr_Willis: yes, changing the boot order boots windows, but that's a pain in the arse, :P [01:03] shane2peru: and any new machines still use dhcp. [01:03] Dr_Willis: mine too, gotta love Linksys, so I can just put that into a host file and be good to go? [01:03] puff: it appears ubuntu is seeing the camera being plugged in, but not recognizing it as a camera and not mounting it as a drive [01:03] tristanmike: edit the menu.lst and alter the windows entry . its proberly setting the wrong hd perhaps. [01:03] cabrey: oh, well I want to connect to my ISPs wireless (GPRS / HSDPA / UMTS or whatever service) on boot up, without logging in. It would be nice if the user can tell if it is up or not (ie some level of NetworkManager usefulness), but that is optional === Paraselene__ is now known as Paraselene_ [01:03] puff: what kind of camera? [01:03] usser: I will have to check that out. [01:03] shane2peru: yea. be carefull.. if the ips DO change and the hosts file is wrong.. that can cause all sorts of odd issues. [01:03] Dr_Willis: ok, this is what I was thinking, you mean the mapping, right ? [01:04] jonex: The easier way: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (The 32 bit version works fine (most of the time) on 64 systems...) [01:04] cabrey: my main issue is, when I do log into the GUI, the NetworkManager tries to reconfigure my wireless device, as a consiquence the /dev/ttyUSB[0-2] devices get removed, which causes my established network connection to die [01:04] tristanmike: perhaps (hd1,0) [01:04] tristanmike: yep somthing like that.. been ages since i last had a ide+sata system. My new machiens - i just hit F11 and it lets me pick what HD to boot.. makes it trivial [01:04] cabrey: did you get all of that/ [01:04] Dr_Willis: ok, thanks for the info, much appreciated [01:04] th0r: Nothing on my desktop; when I look at it in nautilus it's there and it shows me some folders and a message about "This folder contains digital media" and a button to open f-spot. [01:04] Hm. [01:04] Dr_Willis: I know, I'm running ancient hardware, don't judge me :P [01:05] phix, yes, I have never heard of nm trying to manipulate device files before O_o [01:05] puff: i hate that 'this folder contains....' bull.. :) its always wrong for me also.. and its NEVER actually handy when it is right. [01:05] puff: ok....then nautilus is seeing it. can you open f-spot and see your pictures? [01:05] th0r: Okay, so I just turned it off and back on, and this time, since i'd installed gthumb, the popup offered to let me open it in gthumb as well as f-spot. [01:05] need help to compile rhythmbox [01:05] DrMe too. [01:05] another NFS issue I keep getting is this error: mount.nfs: mount system call failed - Google doesn't seem to be my friend tonight on this [01:05] phix, are you running it as root by chance? [01:05] cabrey: well it is either doing to directly, or unloading and loading the module again, which is havinbg the same effect [01:05] justfil: why? [01:05] th0r: No, when I open f-spot I only see my old pictures. [01:05] edbian: http://paste.ubuntu.com/212293/ , that's my menu.lst... as you can see, there is mapping, but all the system does now is give me "Starting up..." then blinks to hand over control and nothing [01:05] th0r: When I open with gthumb, I get this erropr: [01:06] because I'm using debian and in the repos there's some sucky strange version [01:06] LMJ: :D, how's it going buddy? long time [01:06] tristanmike: What the hell? Why are you mapping back and forth like that? [01:06] another NFS issue I keep getting is this error: mount.nfs: mount system call failed any ideas on that? [01:06] edbian: don't know, that's the config that was created [01:06] edbian: I figured it knew what it was doing, lol [01:07] phix, well that sounds like a major bug so if you have a launchpad account you could report a bug there :/ [01:07] tristanmike: mixxed ide +sata sstems.. are a tad.. unusual in ways. :) [01:07] th0r: "Unable to mount Canon, Inc. Digital IXUS 50 (normal mode) / IXY Digital 55 (normal mode) / Powershot A520 (PTP mode) / Powershot SD400 (normal mode)" and then in smaller type below it, "Error initializing camera: -60: Could not lock the device." [01:07] th0r: It's the A520, btw. [01:07] tristanmike: Perhaps it does. It looks strange to me. I don't really know what else to try. I don't really wanna mess with that. Sorry bud :( Wish I could help more. [01:07] edbian: truth be told, I've seen many "fixes" for this issue and adding that mapping has done it... in my case, the mapping is there and isn't working [01:07] so any way, where ar the docs on NetworkManager? it is a part of gnome right? does this mean that is it only activated once there is a logged on gnome session? or is there a daemon that gets started at boot time? [01:08] srry got .. cut of there , gone read a litle .. [01:08] sebsebseb, [01:08] I am getting crazy system halts, possibly related to the problem this guy mention in this thread... http://ohioloco.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1120895. My system just halted right now. I read somewhere I could log in the machine via ssh and pull an error log with dmesg. CAn someone assist me? [01:08] phix: There is daemon process for network-manager. [01:08] tristanmike: I guess it's safe to just remove the mapping entirely. Try to write your own based on the example a little higher up in your menu.lst [01:08] btw opera sgood.. [01:08] Dr_Willis: is there a way to reset the /etc/hosts with something??? sudo /etc/init.d/hosts?? restart? [01:08] Dr_Willis: combined with a strange feeling that the SATA is not controlled, how shall I say, normally... it's almost like an after thought with my board, "Hey, let's add SATA".... ASUS A7N8X-Deluxe [01:09] shane2peru: no need to do that. its read as needed by the apps. [01:09] edbian: did that, and then it froze at the "Starting up..." screen, didn't hand off [01:09] Dr_Willis: ok, thanks [01:09] good evening... i have a novice question about the memory check on the installation disk... [01:09] puff: found this in a google search http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=250328 [01:09] does anyone know how to get vsftp to verify via mysql, ive tried the sourceforge tutorial but its not working [01:09] edbian: iirc, it was late the other night, but I'm pretty sure that was the result of removing the mapping lines [01:09] tristanmike: at the time.. they were basically just tossed on the boards. :) i got 2 mbs that way [01:09] or maybe I should do I filesystem check [01:09] tristanmike: You could try to install grub to the ide drive as well and boot to that drive rather than the sata drive. Just a shot in the dark though. [01:10] tristanmike: once the distos started using sd## for ide drives..i accidently formated my ide drive thinking it was the sata drive... DOH [01:10] need help to compile rhythmbox - the configure script stops in 'No package 'libsoup-2.4' found' though I have 2.4.1 [01:10] anyone know of a RAID-5 tutorial that is pure command line? [01:10] when I try fsck, it says the system has to be unmounted.. so I have to do this from a live cd? [01:10] mercutio22: thats one way [01:10] th0r: Argh... that really, really, really sucks. Thanks [01:10] justfil: you need libsoup2.4-dev or whatever it's called [01:10] Dr_Willis, and the other way? [01:10] mercutio22: It's easier to do it during a reboot: `sudo touch /forcefsck` will make it fsck next time you booyt [01:10] edbian: that could probably work, I sorta wanted to keep it all separate but if that's the end means, it's better than changing the boot order every time my 'ole man wants to play BF2 [01:10] L3d, is opera better than minefield in your opinion? [01:10] I have it, SuborbitalPigeon [01:10] Flannel, thanks [01:11] mercutio22: unmunt the filesystem :) but if its in use.. you cant.. [01:11] Wtf is the point of a USB jack if you're not going to make it actually possible to get data off the device via USB??? [01:11] Dr_Willis: Yeah, I was confused for a moment when I saw 2 sd devices... I was like, I don't have 2 sata... [01:11] justfil: it needs to be a new enough version [01:11] puff: nice, is it usefull? [01:11] puff: also found an item that says they can access the camera using gtkam, but that is old info [01:11] does anyone know how to get vsftp to verify via mysql, ive tried the sourceforge tutorial but its not working [01:11] Dr_Willis: I just bought the drive, been working with the 80gb IDE since I bought the computer [01:11] tristanmike: yep. I learned the hard way to be carefull [01:11] hello everyone, I have looked around every where but still need help. I am trying to setup a ad hoc to share my files with my psp. The psp has to have the addresses manually inputed into it. [01:11] tristanmike: ive been upgrading to 1tb drives on my machines.. :) The Hugeness! [01:12] SuborbitalPigeon: Well, it is, the configure asks for 2.4 and i have 2.4.1. [01:12] phix: Depends on what you mean by useful; I don't find it useful, it keeps trying to "help" and I keep th wanting to say, "You want to help? Then DON'T help." [01:12] puff: try, in a terminal, gphoto2 --auto-detect [01:12] sorry howtoforge [01:12] justfil: 2.4 is just the ABI version, it'll likely be a fairly recent one [01:12] puff: hmm I've got an a620, but sadly no ubuntu box around atm :/ [01:12] Dr_Willis: I imagine... 640+80 is enough until I get a new computer... [01:13] SuborbitalPigeon, so, what do I need to do to compile it? [01:13] Dr_Willis: how are you on ATI ? LOL, my xorg likes to max out my cpu and never releases control [01:13] justfil: could you tell me what apt-cache policy libsoup2.4-dev says? [01:13] and xterminal is rather weird gives a computer elektro voice ..i already mention ? [01:14] Dr_Willis: my xorg seems rather barren too [01:14] I need help getting gspca set to (hopefully) get my webcam working [01:14] sorry i should mention i am using jaunty [01:14] needed to restart .. not ownly ff locking up :/ [01:14] puff: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/some-of-known-ubuntu-904jaunty-jackalope-bugs-with-workarounds.html [01:15] how do you make the screen slide across [01:15] im doing it accidentally [01:15] but i cant do it on purpose [01:15] CorpX: mouse wheel perhaps? [01:15] CorpX: scroll wheel outside the current window [01:15] theres that console bit again .. sigh [01:15] ah [01:15] tristanmike: xorg.conf files are minimal now a days [01:16] ok, I'm fed up with inconsistent working of NFS, can someone recommend an alternative? Please not samba, I sharing on lan with all linux boxes [01:16] shane2peru: odd. ive had no issues with nfs. i dont use it a lot however. [01:16] shane2peru: CIFS [01:16] shane2peru: sshfs perhaps> [01:16] installing xorg and trying to back somethin somethin [01:16] Dr_Willis: xorg takes over when I select System-Preferences-Display... which doesn't fully load [01:16] SuborbitalPigeon, here it is -> http://94.26.29.3/output.txt [01:17] Dr_Willis: I used to use ssh quite a bit, but NFS is being difficult for me. [01:17] Dr_Willis: I have to logout/in to regain control, it kills my cpu [01:17] linxeh: CIFS? what is it, similar to NFS? [01:17] justfil: which rhythmbox is this? [01:17] I need help getting gspca working to get my webcam up and running [01:17] i noticed tht 2 mean dont click display until proper drv instal . [01:17] !cifs [01:17] Sorry, I don't know anything about cifs [01:17] shane2peru: its what smb evolved into [01:17] cifs is new name for samba [01:18] Dr_Willis: perhaps I never got nfs setup correctly, and now it is a mess, I have only connected once or twice with it. [01:18] SuborbitalPigeon, you can see the version in the output - rhythmbox-0.12.3 [01:18] n8tuser: no, its the new name for SMB [01:18] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Message_Block [01:18] i stand corrected [01:18] linxeh: wouldn't that be more aimed to connect windows boxes to linux over lan? [01:18] heh [01:18] shane2peru: start over at the beginning with the nfs setup perhaps? its not too hard to configure. (at least not compared to samba) :) [01:18] shane2peru cifs is pretty good, only issue is when shutting down a comp cifs mounts take a while to close [01:18] shane2peru: CIFS works nicely with unixes too [01:19] cifs i thouhg was smb enhanced to take into account more unix features [01:19] what does catalyst actualy ad to this whole ati thing ? [01:19] justfil: looking at configure.ac, you need libsoup 2.26; also, debian is irc://irc.oftc.net/#debian [01:19] Whoops, lost th0r. [01:19] Dr_Willis: right, it seems fairly simple, is it possible my hardware is giving me problems? Perhaps router isn't playing nice? [01:19] koshari, shane2peru thats if you use NetworkManager which is a total crap [01:19] Well gphoto2 -a found the camera. [01:19] koshari, shares timing out i mean [01:19] shane2peru: check dmesg output also.. i had a network card that had fakey drivers once. [01:19] usser: nope I use wicd, had some probs with network manager [01:19] usser: i dont use network manager, i use an fstab entry [01:19] http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ [01:20] Dr_Willis: will do, [01:20] koshari, yea fstab to mount shares, how do you connect to the internet? [01:20] hey guys, for whatever reason, my panel and desktop trash icons aren't synced.. sometimes when i delete a file my desktop trash icon will change, but my panel won't.. sometimes it's the other way around. [01:20] hello everyone, I have looked around every where but still need help. I am trying to setup a ad hoc to share my files with my psp. The psp has to have the addresses manually inputed into it. [01:20] Dr_Willis: dmesg|grep eth0 spit out a buuuuunch of stuff, does it log every connection? [01:21] I Finally figured out how to mount a smb share that has a space in its 'name' via Fstab..... [01:21] shane2peru: not sure.. it logs a lot of things. [01:21] Dr_Willis, name/%20 here ? [01:21] what's the best torrent client for ubuntu [01:21] !torrent [01:21] Torrent clients: Transmission (GTK and terminal-based), Deluge-Torrent, Freeloader, BitStormLite, BitTornado-GUI (GTK), KTorrent (KDE), QTorrent (Qt), Azureus (Java), TorrentFlux (web-based), bittornado, rTorrent, cTorrent, bittorrent, aria2 (terminal-based) - FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html - See also !P2P [01:22] !best [01:22] Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [01:22] I like Deluge [01:22] CorpX much depends on the features you want [01:22] CorpX, i like deluge too [01:22] i got a whole map that onwly displays right in dolphin ,can wrtite internal ntfs ,the option isnt optional with the one click prog .. difrent partiton tho [01:22] bastidrazor: nope.. gotta use \040 for the space... [01:22] not mounted [01:22] CorpX, i like ktorrent [01:22] bastidrazor: %20 is html/url synatax :) [01:22] i like utorrent on windows, so what's something similiar? [01:22] CorpX: Transmission is installed by default I think [01:22] yes, it is - Deluge is like utorrent [01:22] sgood [01:22] Dr_Willis, yeah i couldn't remember i knew it had numbers in it.. i'll brain mark that.. 040 [01:22] CorpX, try deluge if you're using gnome, ktorrent if you're on KDE [01:22] CorpX: i use transmission.. or you can use wine to run utorrent [01:22] CorpX ktorrent would be closest to utorrent [01:22] can a home folder (on it's own partition) be shared between a 9.04 and 8.10 installation? Assuming they don't run at the same time? [01:23] linxeh: I'm not sure that's relevant. [01:23] bastidrazor: took me a Long time to research/google/discover that [01:23] puff: nor me now, reading it hehehe [01:23] linxeh: However, I tried killing the process, now I don't get any automount behavior at all. [01:23] puff: hmm, what about restarting it ? [01:23] jb510: yes. but watch out for different user id's and gnome settings/change/conflits ith different versions [01:23] i like the screenshots of ktorrent [01:23] I think I have to roll back to 8.10.... :( until there is a video driver for x1k ati cards... [01:23] think about this i got 2 kernels .11 and .15 or sommeting and ia stil can load xp [01:24] i removed linux renel .11 [01:24] heh [01:24] usb gets me 2 live [01:24] pff [01:25] eaven instal safe graph mode leaves me in live sesion [01:25] @dr_willis - Thanks... I'll give a side by side install a shot... my home is ext3... 9.04's is ext4 but that shouldn't matter.... [01:25] @dr willis - can they share the same swap partition? [01:25] jb510: older release wont be able to read ext4 [01:25] jb510: they can shre swap. if you dont use hibernate/suspend features. [01:25] i use ext2 [01:25] @dr_willis - I know ext4 can't be read by 8.10, not a problem, just system stuff. everything else is ext3 [01:26] ext2 [01:26] @dr_willis - Wondering though about the swap parition, can it be used by both since I think it gets used for hibernation [01:26] jb510: thats what i said.. :) DONT use hibernate/suspend... [01:27] Ahh... I thought that was becuse of the user account stuff... no problem, probably won't use 9.04 until someone a better ati driver... i need something that properly support dual monitors [01:28] night [01:28] notify area clear ? [01:28] @dr_willis - thanks! over the cliff I go.... [01:28] jb510: ati just keeps dumping more and more things out of the fglrx drivers.. so i wouldnt be holding your breath for them to make better drivers soon. [01:28] I rember why i switched from ati a few yrs back :) [01:28] Dr_Willis: someone changed the Ubuntu docs NFS how to since I last visited! :) [01:29] its xorg ? [01:29] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo [01:29] shane2peru: heh - whats changed? [01:29] I think I had some old docs or something [01:29] Dr_Willis: ^^^ [01:29] how can i "takeover" an X session that i opened remotely with windows NXclient? [01:29] @dr_willis - I'm hoping the Radeon/RaseonHD group will start supporting X1k cards since ATI isn't anymore... can't believe ATI f'd up like this, freezing their legacy support right before xserver changed :( [01:30] hey all [01:30] 9000 [01:30] shane2peru: nfs has basically been the same for years.. [01:30] jb510: yep. I agree.. and they were all big on 'supporting linux' in their press releases not too long ago. [01:30] hey guys i can't find the UFW log anywhere, where can i find it ? [01:30] uh amd s [01:30] lolz [01:31] Dr_Willis: this doc sets up the hosts.allow and deny, and the exports file is slightly different, I kept getting no_subtree_check errors, and this has that in the exports file [01:31] the amdays [01:31] when using Firefox and flash, there are often certain problems [01:31] Is there a centralized (scriptable) configuration tool? Something like gconftool/dpkg --divert/update-alternatives but for any package? [01:31] shane2peru: i never messed with those. :) [01:31] im going opera [01:31] for example when I go to the menu or perform some actions, the firefox window will disappear for a moment showing the desktop [01:31] Dr_Willis i steer very clear with regard to radeon after i lashed out big bucks for a 9250 which got trounces by an old mx2 [01:31] using native drivers [01:32] its a patch with ubuntu 9.04 [01:32] Dr_Willis: and no async, odd, I must have dug up an old page or something last time I did this [01:32] firef [01:32] fool_ try grep UFW /var/log/syslog [01:32] @Dr_Willis - ATI's website still touts how they work integrally with the open source community... blah blah blah... anyway, I'll see if Hardy can do what I'm looking for (setting up old laptop as a media server on my TV, need proper dual monitor support).

[01:52] there is a bug in some of the flash plugins but i hear upgrading to flash 10 works [01:52] i just realized this. a bot messaged me. im new on irc, just on lockes comp. thus why i keep getting banned. but thanks for atleast telling me. Bye [01:52] dewp: heres a specialized 'dd_rescue' command that lets you easier dd it to a file, you could then try to mount/repair [01:52] Hey there everyone - I've got Ubuntu 9.04 installed (also tried this on 8.1) and the NIC that I'm using is a 3com 3c900-tpo. It's not being recognized as an 'eth' but rather as 'pan0'. I can't use it at all. Any ideas? [01:53] wow, that sounds great === marko_ is now known as marko-_- [01:53] hello everyone, I have looked around every where but still need help. I am trying to setup a ad hoc to share my files with my psp. The psp has to have the addresses manually inputed into it. [01:53] sorry i keep repeating but no one has a answer [01:54] twisted: by address you mean the ip#? or SSID? or MacAddress? [01:54] twisted, you're trying to set up a ad-hoc wireless network to share files with, right [01:54] yep [01:54] twisted, ok, here you go. you set up the wireless part with iwconfig. [01:54] close firefox, uninstall flash with this command sudo apt-get remove flashplugin-nonfree [01:54] rdw2001 yes im setting up the ad hoc so nethostfs will allow psp to connect to it but i need to set ip and subnet and gateway mask [01:54] Ok it's 3 am, I have a deadline and a headache, and just discovered that I have no idea on how to spellcheck latex in ubuntu: kile does not use the aspell switch to avoid latex commands, emacs does not find ispell which is not in ubuntu anymore, gedit can't change the aspell command either [01:54] please somebody help me! :) [01:55] twisted, but, that doesn't solve all your problems. you must also a) set up a dhcp server to provide the address to the psp (which you mentioned isn't necessary) or you use ifconfig or ip to set a static ip on the wireless interface. [01:55] install flash 10 with sudo dpkg -i sudo dpkg -i install_flash_player_10_linux.deb [01:55] Dr_Willis, but my USB drive cannot be mounted. is there a way to force the mount? sorry for my newbie questions :-( [01:55] restart firefox and your done [01:55] twisted, its really easy to set ip addresses. do research on using ifconfig or using the window-based tools that are provided with ubuntu (not NeworkManager) [01:55] Le-Chuck_ITA: a rought way to do it now is to copy and paste your text to openoffice and let it do the job [01:56] hmmm [01:56] Kjell: you mean from the pdf? [01:56] how do I disable NetworkManager? [01:56] I hate it [01:56] twisted, also, make sure there isn't a firewall running or in the way [01:56] phix, you can just uninstall it ;) [01:56] Le-Chuck_ITA: the latex code [01:56] rdw200169: yeah ok, but I want gnome on there still :) [01:56] Kjell: yes but there are lots of commands in it :( [01:56] hey guys, in bash how would i ONLY get the date (mm/dd/year)? $date returns the time ect right now... i don't like how cron's daily script only works at 12pm or 11, or w/e it seems to be doing [01:56] phix, oh, right, its part of the ubuntu-desktop package... [01:57] rdw200169: I am just sick of NetworkManager conflicting with shit and not working correctly [01:57] it is a POS [01:57] rdw200169 okay so network manager is out of the question is there a good window based tool that could help me with this? [01:57] phix, watch the language [01:57] Hello, I'm having an issue with running a windows program on WINE. It's a web-based application, but after about five minutes, my internet connection seems to become overburdened with data and I end up lagging out. Any help? [01:57] Sorry for repeating myself but I'm pretty desperate - the NIC that I'm using is a 3com 3c900-tpo. It's not being recognized as an 'eth' but rather as 'pan0'. I can't use it at all. Any ideas? [01:57] Le-Chuck_ITA: yea but you should be able to read through and see red lines [01:57] bazhang: what? I am, I have a civil tounge [01:57] twisted, ifconfig will do it, thats on the command line, but i think that will conflict with that horrible NetworkManager [01:57] hmm thanks, that's a possibility. I first try aspell by hand :) [01:58] rdw200169: I hate it! :( [01:58] chuck NetworkManager, install Wicd [01:58] phix, i know i know, me too. i can't remember how i got mine to shut up [01:58] Le-Chuck_ITA: just have eveything between \begin{document} ... \ebd{document} [01:58] Hello [01:58] Kjell: I am spellchecking a 10 file document :) [01:58] rdw200169 i believe so it says it can not be assured from here network manager is main client. Or such .. [01:59] I don't remember how I did that last time [01:59] where is that one person i was talking to... [01:59] http://pastebin.com/m107b6a1d <- thats what the log says when i connect the drive. but how can i mount it or get all possible data from it with ddrescue? [01:59] twisted, i'm not sure, but i think you can set manual ip addresses directly from NetworkManager, i just don't know because i don't use it [01:59] Le-Chuck_ITA: Well I assume you are in a hurry [02:00] ok now it show 370 mb [02:00] ram [02:00] aww okay :) i found a web page with setting up using ifconfig [02:00] so ram is ok... [02:00] samosa: That is what my os using now [02:00] Kjell: in front of me sits an aspell on ncurses, I didn't even know, will report [02:01] but what annoys me is cpu is constantly spiking at 20%. (I have dual core 3.00ghz, is this behavior normal?) [02:01] hey need help trying to append using tee command not workin : cat moe.txt | cat info.txt | tee > jeje.txt thx =) [02:01] Le-Chuck_ITA: Well the old way to spoof check is to read everything backwards. === bruenig_ is now known as bruenig [02:01] help`: cat moe.txt | cat info.txt | tee -a jeje.txt [02:02] samosa, you looking for me? [02:02] phoenixandthor: yes! :p [02:02] stovicek thx i try this it only append from file info.txt not with moe.txt thx [02:03] i have apache installed, only one website (the default), and I want to grant certain users ftp access to just that folder (/var/www). How's that done usually? [02:03] has anyone had a problem with the GTick metronome? === Floops[w]1 is now known as Floops[w] [02:03] Brekitz: have you? [02:03] dgnorton, well, ftp access is not provided by apache. thats something else, like proftpd and such [02:03] yeah it won't work [02:04] why? [02:04] rdw200169, I have vsftp already installed [02:04] Kjell: aspell is working very nicely, but does not allow me to type in my own correction. But it's doing at least a reasonable job. [02:04] Couldn't start metronome. Please check if specified sound device and sample file are accessible. [02:04] hola [02:04] stovicek work thx =) [02:04] what's it called again [02:04] dgnorton, i think it would be better not to direct your ftp clients directly to /var/www which is supposed to have user/group as something like www-data instead of userX etc... [02:05] Gtick 0.4.2 [02:05] rdw200169, anonymous disabled...using local accounts (forget the setting) [02:05] and what's the package name? [02:05] Le-Chuck_ITA: I do not know what I have installed now. But kile is spellchecking ok here. I appear that open office do the same as kile so you can open the files in open office if you want that [02:05] dgnorton, yeah, it would be better to leave users where they belong, i.e. /home and then symlink read-only to var/www [02:05] Kjell: really, what version of kile? In fact I have 2.0 [02:05] !info gtick [02:05] dgnorton, you don't want to compromise the security of a read-only webroot by implementing with ftp, make sense? [02:05] gtick (source: gtick): Metronome application. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.4.2-1 (jaunty), package size 130 kB, installed size 720 kB [02:06] Kjell: is it ignoring comments and commands? But do you use gnome? [02:06] ahh, package name is gtick [02:06] Le-Chuck_ITA: 2.0 [02:06] dgnorton, hence, the symlinks or whatever [02:06] hi Devon_C ! [02:06] rdw200169, ok...then I was on the right track. I have a users locked to their home and a sym in their home folder to /var/www [02:06] Le-Chuck_ITA: I use gnome. It does not ignore commands [02:06] Kjell: well I am on karmic, but on jaunty the same happened, it says it can't find the dictionary but I assume I lack some kde dependency [02:06] * D3f0 is away: Ausente por ahora [02:06] dgnorton, excellent, it also means you can move /home or /var/www without compromising standardized partition/hdd managements etc... [02:06] it's just call gtick in the synaptic package manager [02:07] Le-Chuck_ITA: you using english? [02:07] yes [02:07] Devon_C: Get you ipod working? [02:07] Le-Chuck_ITA: Strange then [02:07] Kjell: but really, aspell in console is not so bad [02:07] not showable to any user to convert to ubuntu though [02:08] Kjell: "The spelling program could not be started. Please make sure you have set the correct spelling program and that it is properly configured and in your PATH." [02:08] rdw200169, the problem was that when i ftped in, i couldn't access the symlink in my folder [02:08] [02:09] Kjell: and the funny thing is that 1) it does not tell me which spelling program 2) it assumes I know where to set it, certainly not in kile's config [02:09] Hi, I need some help with samaba [02:09] it's not working. [02:09] dgnorton, you mean from /var/www or /home? [02:09] from /home [02:09] samaba ? [02:09] Le-Chuck_ITA: Honestly I do not like the new version of kile. The 1.x is much better [02:09] rdw200169, need to chown it so the user owns it i bet. [02:09] Brekitz So I just got the same message... here's what I want you to do [02:09] I got samba installed but it can't find my home microsoft network and it's not workgroup. [02:10] Kjell: I know, and the new actually is 2.1, I am using intrepid's repository on karmic for that [02:10] for 2.0 [02:10] dgnorton, you're going to have to further inspect the permissions/users/groups etc... in the various /home folders. ftp is extremely picky about that sort of thing, for security reasons. it would also be helpful to read the config file help page to see what kind of 'leniencies' you can implement to reduce strictness... [02:10] first, quit gtick, then run it from the shell [02:10] try to start it [02:10] how do I change the delay of how long it takes for a song to start playing after i put my cursor on it in nautilius? [02:10] look at the shell window [02:10] is there a way to middleclick close apps on the window list? [02:11] rdw200169, /var/www is root:root ... leave it that way? [02:11] dgnorton, depends on how apache is configured. ubuntu's default with apache2 is for the contents of /var/www to be www-data:www-data [02:11] Le-Chuck_ITA: Is there a big change from 2.0 and 2.1? [02:11] the number of crashes :P [02:12] it is much higher in 2.1 [02:12] and the interface is a bit different [02:12] Brekitz you still there [02:12] what setting in compiz do I need to configure to allow me to "switch between" desktops, but leave the menu bar and wallpaper [02:12] dgnorton: It's safe to change the owner of /var/www to www-data:www-data [02:12] it starts up [02:12] rdw200169, odd...installed the latest server yesterday [02:12] I just want the open applications to move, not the wallpaper and menu bar [02:12] doesn't say anything [02:12] Brekitz: ok, hit the start button [02:13] When I do ... ls -ld somedirectory .... The result shows that the it is fixed at 4096 [02:13] Why?? [02:13] dgnorton, its an initial installation thing [02:13] /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy [02:13] dgnorton: by default /var/www is owned by root:root, but the contents are www-data:www-data, you can safely change its owner to www-data:www-data [02:13] anyone know how I can get samba to see my windows network ? [02:13] mohammed510: directories are that until they grow past a certain sixe [02:13] rdw200169, ahh [02:13] Le-Chuck_ITA: KDE programs are good in general but the interface gets too fancy lately. :) [02:14] Flannel, i think i said that, hehe, but maybe we all missed it, i know i thought it ;) [02:14] how do i change the music preview delay in nautilus? [02:14] rdw200169: you said the contents, yeah, he read it as /var/www plus the contents [02:14] Kjell: not as fancy as the spellchecker I am currently using anyway :) [02:15] Kjell: which by the way is the most productive spellchecker I ever used [02:15] rdw200169, hmm...says I'm not in the sudoers file. Sounds...bad? [02:15] Do I need xinerama to send windows across a network? [02:15] Le-Chuck_ITA: Any spellchecker that you can use is productive i guess. [02:15] why the music audio quality in linux is so bad... [02:15] Kjell: not if it keeps forgetting the words I add! [02:16] hello there... my keyboard has been misconfigured by xorg under ubuntu... all my FX keys (F1, F2...) won't work, but they do appear when i run "xev"... not as F1, lets say, but as some strange code in numbers... what can i do to map them? [02:16] haole: u can use xbindkeys [02:16] and done! bye kjeli and all, I'll have good sleep :) [02:16] dgnorton, hmm.. are you working on getting your users to log in correctly? [02:17] Le-Chuck_ITA: Sleep well [02:17] ARMENIAN: but would that make it permanent? [02:17] justfil, mine sounds pretty good to me [02:17] Halitech, well i guess <> doesnt work for me [02:17] justfil, it might depend on your drivers, if so : check ubuntuforums for ways to tweak it, and it might be your alsa or pulseaudio settings.. for most people stuff works great out of the box, but for some it requires some tweaking. i consider myself an audiophile and i have no sound issues. [02:17] haole: well what they would be used for is terminal commands [02:18] haole: pm me [02:18] anyone here know how to use kdiff3? [02:18] !ff3.5 [02:18] Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | For Hardy see http://is.gd/1jkNY [02:18] yay [02:18] Anyone knows another sokoban game rather than gsokoban? [02:18] dgnorton, sudoers is related to sudo and fake sudo root access and such. i think the default configuration is for users in the admin group to have sudo access [02:18] rdw200169, was tinkering before I got on IRC. Added a webdev group and added myself to it. Now I'm getting these "dgnorton is not in the sudoers file..." messages. [02:18] hey sorry need to ask this silly question : cat help.txt info.txt > file 2<&1 ( this mean let info.txt apped help.txt info file) thx [02:19] dgnorton, if dgnorton is not in the admin group, he doesn't have sudo access [02:20] Hello, I'm having issued with my wireless connection.

[02:34] was wondering whats the difference between ufw and firestarter and if any which is better to use? [02:34] dashix, why would you need that; how much older are we talking [02:34] dashix why? [02:34] older than 2.6.27 and to use flashrom properly [02:35] L3dPlatedLinux, ufw and firestarter, essentially, perform the same task [02:35] L3dPlatedLinux, they both work with iptables, the commandline driven interface to the firewall code integrated into the Linux Kernel [02:35] hi, my use password doesnt work [02:35] has anyone head of passwords changing spontaniously? [02:36] mooperd: Nope [02:36] or is there a time I have to wait if I enter a password wrong more than 3 times? [02:36] L3dPlatedLinux, regardless, from my personal experience, I prefer firestarter, because its really easy, and the firewall configuration it uses is excellent for most client related matters (not suitable for complex networking environments etc...)

[02:52] orbixx: ahh i recommend then a 30/30/30 reset of the router and to reset your settings [02:52] Dr_Willis: Never would have guessed that one. ;) thanks [02:52] tuntis: Does it seem to just hang then when connecting? [02:52] Orbixx: yes [02:52] orbixx: routers can be cantankerous sometimes [02:53] lufis: drag icon to the panel, right click on it.. properties.. :) [02:53] dashix: I have custom firmware on this router and it's tweaked to perfection, every single other client works flawlessly. [02:53] Orbixx, ahhh i was just going to ask if you're using stock firmware [02:53] orbixx: i see, is it an intel wireless adapter? [02:53] oh wow im in an irc window [02:53] haha [02:53] sorry just installed xchat [02:53] cyas [02:53] knight__: A+ :) [02:54] exit [02:54] B- [02:54] Short Attention span! [02:54] dashix: I believe it's ralink. [02:54] The device itself is an Asus eee 901. [02:55] orbixx: hmm.. im assuming you have tried deleting the profile etc? how close are you to the router? [02:55] orbixx: you can actually be too close (3ft) in my experience and my laptop wont connect to my dd-wrt modded router [02:55] anyone know how I can install the acmkdir utility? [02:55] i just inherited a production server running gutsy. I understand it's no longer supported... is there somewhere I can still get updates to packages I currently have installed? [02:56] dashix: Hmm, that's an idea. [02:56] How do I install Steam with Ubuntu? [02:56] jeffschuler: You can attempt a dist-upgrade to Hardy LTS [02:56] chris_: with wine [02:56] jeffschuler: aptitude dist-upgrade === qiyang__ is now known as qiyang [02:57] soreau: is that the only way? i am hesitant to risk issues upgrading to hardy, as it's a live server [02:57] yes i know that but from there what do i do [02:57] !upgrade [02:57] For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading [02:58] orbixx: a friend of mine had ubuntu installed on his laptop, it was loading two drivers, the ndiswrapper and the factory one [02:58] I understand upgrade to hardy is the prescribed thing to do, and will do so, soon.. I'm looking for security updates in the meantime. is that doable? [02:58] orbixx: you may also want to check that [02:58] any idea why synclient changes are not working on the fly? here is my xorg.conf http://pastebin.com/m5a9c9b68 [02:58] jeffschuler, eol means no more security updates for it [02:58] jeffschuler: My recommendation would be to try a dist-upgrade and if it breaks, be prepared to install fresh and clean. Or, leave it the way it is until there's a problem and try step 1 [02:59] hi [02:59] jeffschuler: If it's working, there's no real reason to upgrade [03:00] soreau: I'm just concerned about security updates for currently installed software. [03:00] akSeya: i was thinking there was a X config that had to be enabmed for that to work somthing with X memory. (schm>?) [03:00] grrr I need a new hard drive no one download from me [03:00] jeffschuler: Well, good luck [03:00] soreau and bazhang: thanks for your help. [03:00] Dr_Willis, SHMConfig [03:01] ?

[03:02] jay2, are you using Ubuntu? [03:02] sometimes I find a linux view to fixing a windows problem sometimes soves these kinds of issues [03:02] Dr_Willis: hu [03:02] sorry computer again just gave me grive [03:02] jay2, ##windows [03:03] zelrikriando: my cell phones have a menu item.. one to be a 'data' device over the usb.. other to be a 'hard drive' over usb.

I now cannot get the wireless card or ethernet card to work or connect to anything. I installed both ndiswrapper and ndisgtk, and with ndisgtk I installed as many drivers as i could find but with no luck, what is going on? :( [03:03] jay2, why not just run a utility that gets rid of conficker [03:03] jay2, that is offtopic here please take to ##windows [03:03] tryed it and hids [03:03] run the vaious linux anti-virus apps and see if they can rwemove it. [03:03] nah not really hoping for a linux bit but okay [03:03] :)) [03:03] Dr_Willis, hum.. gonna try that link you said.. [03:03] Is this the right channel for HDD formatting question?

[03:08] thanks I will try that [03:08] how do i know that everything is ok? [03:08] you can never tell... [03:08] seems so [03:09] he is not in ##windows yet... [03:09] The thing is that when I go to sound configuration and select my sound card and test it, i hear a sound output from the HDMI [03:09] hi there, i've set up a bind9 server and also my zone file, zone name being 'home.myzone.' .... but then when i ping a client it still replies "64 bytes from myclient.local (192.168.2.158)" but nslookup just works fine. [03:09] i have an onboard soundcard and a soundblaster. [03:09] but when I try to play a file from any application, silence [03:09] ! audio | buckwild [03:09] buckwild: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 [03:10] can anyone convert a package for me? [03:10] kennyyu how much byte u want it to reply ? [03:10] Guiadzf: Convert? [03:10] kennyyu 32> [03:10] help`: not about the bytes :) [03:10] Guiadzf, from what to what [03:10] kennyyu, That is the reveerse lookup. You need nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn.in-addr.arpa to resolve to your desired name. [03:10] kennyyu i don't think it's bind problem! [03:10] when i initially set up ubuntu, i had to select the primary sound card. i forgot how to do that [03:11] scott_ino2, mirage driver to ubuntu [03:11] buckwild: Follow the information ubottu gave you [03:11] scott_ino2, mandriva to ubuntu [03:11] why would 'groups' not show all the same groups as 'groups "dgnorton" /etc/group' ? [03:11] persia: i thought it was the problem with caching.. so where should it be fixed? in my zone file right? [03:11] Guiadzf, there's gotta be something like alien that can do that [03:11] Guiadzf: Use alien [03:11] ok thx [03:12] anyone know how i can find out what options the default ubuntu server kernel was compliled with? [03:12] soreau, scott_ino2 Unpacking of 'sis.rpm' failed at /usr/share/perl5/Alien/Package/Rpm.pm line 155 [03:12] kennyyu, No. In the xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa zone file: search google on "reverse DNS". [03:13] Guiadzf, I've only used alien once for a epson .rpm file to .deb so i doubt i can be of any help. Might wanna try the alien devs mailing list perhaps? [03:13] persia: you really mean the 'rev.xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa' file, right? [03:14] is there an easy way to see what wireless driver I'm currently using? [03:14] kennyyu, No, I mean the xxx.xxx.xxx.in-addr.arpa zone. How that maps to files depends entirely on how you set up your nameserver :) [03:14] persia: :) [03:14] thanks [03:14] soreau: What is the code that I should put? [03:14] I suddenly lost the ability to connect to my WPA network at home. I can connect to an open network but it's the condo's pay internet access. I tried simple stuff like reconnecting, rebooting, removing the profile and trying again...I'm out of ideas...please help [03:14] Hey guys is it possible to search for multiple files with the gnome search tool like if you seperate the names somehow? [03:15] shuffle_: Type 'lspci' in your terminal without quotes and look for the string that is your wifi hardware. Then post the output here [03:15] btw, i update my zone file but then it seems i still cannot ping (from my client) some of the maachines with their names, sometimes. is it sth related to the cache? [03:16] i just upgraded from hardy heron, to intrpid, then to jaunty. I have a Nvidia video card. The resolution is so small that I can't see the proper resolution to select it. What file is the resolution stored in now days? I know it's not in xorg.conf anymore. I need to enter it from ctrl-alt-F1, then sudo nano whatever file. Any help please. [03:16] kennyyu, Possibly. Clear your client cache after each server update to be sure. [03:16] new2linx: Try running 'nvidia-settings' [03:16] persia: undrerstood. many thanks for your answers :) [03:17] I have an Intel 3945ABG Golan [03:17] new2linx: it is in xorg.conf :) [03:17] soreau, I did use System, Preference, Hardware Drivers to install the correct nvidia driver for my card but I jsut can't change the res with nvidia-settings because the res is so small. [03:17] soreau: 02:03.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 02) [03:18] ! broadcom | shuffle_ [03:18] shuffle_: Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [03:18] Kjell, it's not in xorg,cong anymore. At least the installer doesn't put anything about resolutiuon in there anymore. When I did sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg it never asked me about the driver to use or the resolution. [03:18] guys, ati dropped support for my x200m, how good are the open source drivers? possible to revert to an old x server in 9.04 to use the 9.3 fglrx? [03:19] new2linx: you can still manually override it with xorg.conf [03:19] K-Zodron||: The open source drivers are just as good if not better for my ati radeon 9550 [03:19] K-Zodron||, depending on your card the open source drivers are just fine and dandy [03:19] sista vista gets a blista [03:19] new2linx: In xorg.conf in the Device section, switch temporarily to "vesa" and restart X. Use nvidia-settings and revert back to "nvidia" maybe [03:19] last time I tried they barely let my play a 2D game at 5fps, possible that they suck for my specific card or I just did something really wrong? [03:19] Kjell, could you paste a good xorg.conf for 1280x1024 at pastebin.com for me then? [03:20] soreau, oh yeah. I didn't think of that. I'll try that. be right back. [03:20] also, should I install some experimental driver version for better performance? [03:20] scott_ino2: Thanks, I looked up the admin on device to chown -R and that was what I was missing. Working fine now. Thanks! [03:20] K-Zodron||: Try them now and see how they work. How long ago was this? [03:20] so i downloaded steam but when i try to install cs, it doesnt open or anything [03:20] dcushman, np glad it worked [03:20] not too long, maybe a month [03:20] K-Zodron||: All's you have to do is remove all fglrx packages and reboot. You should then be using the open radeon driver [03:21] soreau: He's asking how well they work. [03:21] soreau: He knows how to use them. Clearly from his last post ^ [03:21] ok, thanks for the help [03:21] why does a .tif file glitch Ubuntu? [03:21] can I go down stairs, and log in here, from my test box? Or do I need to log out up here first?

[03:23] Shivam: Perhaps the file is corrupt? [03:23] ctmjr any howto? :p [03:23] no idea, i never seen a .tif before until now [03:23] K-Zodron||, hold on will find it [03:23] Shivam, .tif is a TIFF file stands for Tagged image file format it's a image format [03:24] Shivam: They're used usually for large pictures from a scanner. [03:24] i see [03:24] new2linx: [03:24] edbian, or files that have embedded .icc color profiles [03:24] :) [03:24] Shivam: I've never had an issue with .tiff's.. either pics or multipage documents.

If I enable vesa, then I try to go to nvidia-settings, it says that it appears that I am not using an nvidia driver so it won't start. Please help [03:27] jpastore, have you tried restarting your router? [03:27] scott_ino2, [03:28] bahaa2008, do you have your graphics drivers installed properly?

[03:28] yes [03:28] i'm installed the last nvidia driver [03:28] and it works great [03:28] K-Zodron||, yes you can but make sure you follow the first part of the guide and remove any fglrx drivers [03:28] new2linx, I can paste my config but it sounds like you haven't installed the driver properly [03:28] Kalmi_: no I tried restarting networking, rebooting, removing the profile....no I didn't try restarting the router because my other workstation and wireless laptop can access everything just fine but I'll give it a shot. [03:28] Shivam: maybe you have the dreaded ImageMagick TIFF File Integer Overflow Vulnerability http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/35111 [03:28] ctmjr okay, thanks [03:29] dtownhero: sounds like new2linx is just "activating and deactivating" the ubuntu supplied driver.. since he did use the activate word instead of the install word :) [03:29] bahaa2008, no idea then, maybe something needs to be changed in the make file, or there's somethin else going on [03:29] Kjell, i'll give that a try. thanks [03:30] scunizi, indeed, either way you phrase it the driver is not installed. I see your point [03:30] scott_ino2, so who can help me here [03:30] bahaa2008, probably best to ask one of the mando people from their mailing list or something [03:31] new2linx, the ubuntu driver will not allow you to use the nvidia graphics settings [03:31] where are vino-server logs?

[03:42] alazyworkaholic: check out this topic http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=84858 [03:42] it's a recent discussion. Apparrently, in 8.10 this is not a problem. So maybe revert to intrepid. [03:42] help`, i am pretty sure, not 100 percent tho [03:43] K-Zodron||, ok try this one it has the drm and mesa stuff from git http://www.x.org/wiki/radeon install these first before anything else sudo apt-get install build-essential git-core configure-debian automake autoconf xorg-dev libtool [03:43] MK13, I believe so, but i honestly don't remember unless i look it up from an old Fedora post i had [03:43] MK13 have u take LPI exam? well i'm studying and need to know about LILO if it come in exam since it's old boot loader! [03:43] bahaa2008, it's now complaining about boost === w4ett_ is now known as w4ett [03:44] bahaa2008, is there a list of mando's required build packages so i can just get them all [03:44] Hey, is it just me or can you no longer do a command line install from the alternate cd? [03:44] so i can test it for you [03:44] help`,nope only in programming 2 at the moment :D [03:44] so, in both firefox and epiphany browsers , i can goto google, but if i search for something and then click on it, the window closes .. also does it if i try and open options. any ideas? [03:44] scott_ino2, sudo apt-get install libboost-dev [03:45] scott_ino2, just needed to know if it could be done, it doesnt bother me and i've gotten used to it now [03:45] MK13 oh nice =) [03:45] in /home/dgnorton I did "ln -sd /var/www" and i can "cd /home/dgnorton/www" and see the contents of /var/www. If I ftp to the machine and log in as dgnorton (chrooted to /home/dgnorton) I can not cd to the www sym link. Why? [03:45] ctmjr don't have ubuntu installed right now but I'll try tomorrow, thanks [03:45] bahaa2008, that's 180Mb but i like you :-) [03:46] im interested to see if i can get it to build [03:46] hmm [03:46] Anyone, in both firefox and epiphany browsers , i can goto google, but if i search for something and then click on it, the window closes .. also does it if i try and open options. any ideas? [03:47] So, no one know anything about the "Install a comand line system" option? I burned the alternate iso but its not there...but I swear there was one in intrepid... [03:47] anyone use wubi for other then ubuntu specific installs? [03:47] scott_ino2, what's up [03:47] my sound stopped working and I have tried all of the help sites and nothing works. any ideas? [03:47] dead speakers? [03:47] Brinson: The alt install does a non-graphical instal using curses. [03:47] no my speakers are fine [03:48] as for the crashing, headrx, run firefox from terminal and see what error pops up when it crashes. [03:48] buckwild, check your settings and look for an optical option along with digital ... [03:48] Brinson: did you try pressing F4? [03:48] I tried pressing f4, yeah, but...the option just seems to be gone. [03:48] Hi, what package do I install to get gtk.h into my /user/include directory? [03:49] Brinson, Segmentation fault [03:49] Server install CD, maybe? [03:49] JPSman: most likely one of the gtk-dev packages think it's the 20 one [03:49] Hello, I installed ubuntu on an external hard drive, now when it's removed, XP won't boot. Grub error 21. I can't believe that the installer touched my internal hard drive! I am assuming that it borked the MBR. I don't have an XP install CD. How do I fix this? [03:49] last I heard of it was in Hardy, so no clue for Intrepid or Jaunty [03:49] the problem with that is it used the server kernel and packages instead of desktop ones [03:49] does anybody know where the remote desktop logs are? [03:49] bahaa2008, it's almost done hold up [03:50] it stopped working after i opened a program [03:50] buckwild, is the program a media player? [03:50] yes [03:50] wavesurfer [03:50] fred32892, the installer only touched your internal hard drive if you chose it as the location of grub. [03:51] JPSman: libgtk2.0-dev [03:51] You'll need to edit the grub manually. [03:51] hmm [03:51] JPSman: apt-file search gtk.h [03:51] buckwild, what do you see when you try opening alsamixer in the terminal? [03:51] I'm googling, but finding nothing. Did find intrepid, but not jaunty... [03:51] so many guys [03:52] buckwild, any muted items ... if so, use the cursor keys to move over to that item, then press "m" to unmute [03:52] leave it's slow tonight [03:52] I see a set of colorful lines [03:52] I didn't select that drive to install ubuntu on, i chose my external drive. at any rate, how do i fix the MBR on my XP hard drive with no disk? [03:52] buckwild, mm indicates muted stuff [03:52] leave only 1350 [03:52] it says 00 [03:52] fred32892: use ms-sys [03:52] bucky: libgtk2.0-dev thanks :OD [03:52] buckwild, ok [03:53] any bootable cd that can take you to a terminal can repair it but the procedure isn't so easy, there are boot cds like super grub and such which make it easier. [03:53] buckwild, anything muted under volume control ? [03:53] no [03:53] i don't know why this happened [03:53] I've never used ms-sys but I'm sure it would work, too. [03:54] Brinson: if I were you, I'd just do the server and replace the kernel [03:54] i've seen some weird stuff with this pulseaudio system they use [03:54] :) [03:54] alsa had issues too, but at least it was almost stable [03:54] Hi,who knows about the GNOME applet program? [03:54] what now? [03:55] which card type do you have buckwild ? [03:55] bahaa2008, I have officially gotten to where you are [03:55] soundblaster [03:55] o rly [03:55] bahaa2008, after installing many libraries lol [03:56] scott_ino2, i did it :D [03:56] thanks [03:56] bahaa2008, you fixed your problem? [03:56] buckwild, i'll wager you have an option for optical and that program activated it ... look about in the volume control, preferences [03:56] scott_ino2, yes [03:56] by? [03:56] im curious now [03:56] ./configure --with-x=no [03:56] ahhhh [03:57] yeah i was going to ask if there was an option [03:57] to not use mesa opengl [03:57] buckwild, find that optical and digital and put checks on them... then click Switches tab and uncheck the optical [03:57] looking up man for ms-sys right now. Thanks for the tip! I'll get back to you if I have more questions. [03:57] and use vendor's one [03:57] play a tune and xx your fingers buckwild [03:57] bahaa2008, well good luck with that that sounds interesting [03:58] Hi. I'm new to ubuntu. I just installed the educational desktop for ubuntu from add/remove program under applications. What I wanted were the programs but I found upon reboot was that it has changed the startup screen and my icons. how can I revert to the stock icons/start-up screen? I tried uninstalling the educational desktop for ubutuntu application, but this did not work. [03:58] no luck :( [03:59] no iam going to bed and trying to fix it when iam more non tired [03:59] did that optical option show up though? [03:59] scott_ino2, i'll make my screen touchy :D [03:59] yes [03:59] buckwild, i had the same issue but it was not due to that program [03:59] han gon [03:59] ok [03:59] ? [04:00] jawa: Not sure, but reinstalling the original ubuntu-themes back may do it, try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-artwork [04:01] Brinson: that sounds very plausible. [04:01] jawa, try under system>preferences>appearance then change the theme and icons in there [04:01] hi there, my boss requires me to install jdk 1.6_13 but then how can i make sure i can get the exact minor revision from apt-get? [04:01] ctmjr: Thank you. I should have realized it was that simple. [04:01] How do I do what it says at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx under no alternate Internet access? [04:02] Jawa: He's right, you HAVE all the old themes, you can manually change them back to their originals. I was just thinking there might be a way to do it all at once. [04:02] Yeah. I can't believe I didn't realize all it did was install a different theme. [04:02] *face palm* [04:02] Thanks guys. [04:02] jawa, your welcome [04:02] Ok, if I don't come back, whoever suggested ms-sys, you are a lifesaver! :) :) === TheQ_ is now known as TheQ [04:04] And how to I put files in /lib/firmware ? [04:04] anyone use vpnc and have it break recently? [04:04] why is apt-get upgrade holding back on replacing the kernel with the new one? [04:06] I'm using an Asus Eee 1000HE netbook on jaunty. The wlan doesn't work - it detects connections but can't actually connect to them. [04:06] shuffle_: you download the file on the connection that your on now, and use a USB stick or cd to transfer it [04:06] answer tuntis' question before he gets mad [04:06] shuffle_, sudo cp /path/file/name /lib/firmware [04:06] and what ctmjr said [04:07] hi there, may i know how can i make sure apt-get gets a jdk of 1.6.0_13 but not other (older) versions/revisions? i'm currently having jdk_1.6.0_10 installed by apt-get. does 'apt-get upgrade sun-java-jdk6' serve the purpose? [04:07] !ff35 [04:07] Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | For Hardy see http://is.gd/1jkNY [04:08] Anybody know the best way to demux/mux a MKV file? Google is beh-beh. [04:08] Tuntis: How are you trying to connect? It should work fine [04:08] rankinr: select the network from the taskbar (or whatever it's called), putting in the password (it's WPA) [04:08] it just tries to connect for a while and then the password dialog comes up again [04:09] kennyyu: you can sudo aptitude show sun-java6-jdk to see what version is available to your distribution [04:09] (yes, I'm putting in the right one) [04:09] Just what I was going to ask ;) [04:09] Can you verify that it is working from another computer? [04:10] rankinr: yes, it works on other computers [04:10] mobi-sheep: i don't know if it will handle matroska but hand brake is a good h264 tool for alot of tasks, look into that [04:10] tuntis: can you try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1110957 [04:11] tuntis, I have the exact same problem as you alot of the time. I have no idea why. [04:11] rankinr: I downloaded the files and now have them on the ubuntu desktop, I also installed b43-fwcutter, now what? [04:12] mobi-sheep: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4388316&postcount=5 [04:12] hello [04:12] to quote: shuffle_, sudo cp /path/file/name /lib/firmware [04:14] musikgoat|main: thanks, but it doesn't show me the version number :( [04:14] musikgoat|main: I'll look into that. Maybe I'll be able to write up a similar script. [04:14] but then how can i upgrade a specific package? i see in the website that sun-java6-bin is using 1.6.13 [04:15] <[-D35P14D4D0-]> i need help, i need program for read in c [04:15] d4 === saulus_ is now known as SauLus [04:15] kennyyu: that command lists the version included [04:15] kennyyu: you can also check in synaptic i believe [04:16] y35 [04:16] kennyyu: yes, it shows the version [04:16] musikgoat|main: just this one "Version: 6-10-0ubuntu2" [04:17] musikgoat|main: do you mean this one? [04:17] kennyyu: what version of ubuntu, hardy? [04:17] rankinr: Now I get cannot open input file [04:17] musikgoat|main: i'm using 8.04 [04:17] shuffle_: what command did you run? [04:18] Hey all, how can I configure my ttys to run fortune when anyone logs on? [04:18] kennyyu: you cac check hardy backports for it, in synaptic, go to settings -> repositoris -> updates [04:18] musikgoat|main: i'm using LTS with no X there ;) [04:18] I have a desktop installation and another server installation using VirtualBox. Does my ordinary delstop installation use the same ip as my virtual server installtion or does they get different kind of ip numbers? [04:19] they will use the same IP I believe [04:19] kennyyu: oh :) edit /etc/apt/sources.list [04:19] The one that you said for both files, and it put them in lib/ firmware , and now im doing the one that goes like sudo b43-fwcutter -w [04:19] rankinr: [04:20] kennyyu: look for hardy-backports, and make sure that is not commented out or missing [04:20] chtime [04:20] da [04:20] Hey all [04:20] iamblue: Ok, what server software will answer then if I have one ordinary server and a virtual server installed in the original server using VirtualBox? If I go to a ip number, what web page would I get? [04:21] shuffle_: from what I've read, you need to run b43-fwcutter -w [04:21] musikgoat|main: there are two lines for 'backports there... wait i'm pastebin-ing you in a minute.. [04:21] shuffle_: but i'm not entirely sure what you're trying to do [04:21] If I use Apache2 on both of them and have the same settings in both the real and the virtual server software. [04:21] can anyone plz.. i checked the archive site and didn't know where to look for a specific packags... there werre main , indices, pool , universe .... how to know which can be found where ?? [04:22] What server will ansver on the ip of the servers if they are the same? [04:22] http://www.bgevolution.com/blog/virtualbox-guest-ip-address/ [04:22] take a look there [04:22] musikgoat|main: http://paste.ubuntu.com/212368/ [04:22] musikgoat|main: which line(s)? [04:22] rankinr: Im running the two commands on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx [04:23] i think you mean lines 36-44? [04:23] rankinr:sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o [04:23] shuffle_: oh, sorry [04:23] Etc [04:23] kennyyu: remove the comments from 43-44 [04:23] kennyyu: the # [04:24] musikgoat|main: got it [04:24] which packags are in backports,, universe , main /// ?? [04:24] so you downloaded the two files? [04:24] musikgoat|main: (heh, i still know the effect of # ... :P) [04:24] Yeah [04:24] kennyyu: then apt-get update;aptitude show sun-java6-jdk [04:24] #Vampire [04:24] And there on desktop and in lib/firmware [04:25] I notice that the message shown to me looks different everytime I log on through SSH. [04:25] Is there a alternative new kernel repository? I have a problem with a driver that is hopefully fixed with a more recent kernel. Im in the processes of building a new one right now, but wanted to know if there is a more official source. [04:25] iwconfig ath0 show tx-power off, how to turn ito [04:25] edbian: what packages are in main , what in univser, backports ?? [04:25] shuffle_: what's the output of "ls /lib/firmware | grep wl_apsta" [04:25] rameshwor: Are you kidding me? There are tons in all of them. [04:26] jefinc: yeah, thanks for the suggestion, sorry, I was away, seems odd that something so simple would be so hard to change [04:26] edbian: no i meant if i want to look for a specific one then how to know where should i look for it ?? [04:26] For example, sometimes it tells me how many packages can be updated and how many are security updates, even if there is 0 update. Sometimes this same message is not displayed at all. [04:26] rameshwor: http://packages.ubuntu.com/ [04:26] Is that normal? [04:26] kennyyu: i think its still going to be the same [04:27] musikgoat|main: thanks, but then i'm seeing the same output... [04:27] musikgoat|main: yes [04:27] musikgoat|main: :( [04:27] rameshwor: I am not aware of a way to do it in synaptic. Although you can look at the "origin" on the bottom left. I don't think you can search in an origin. [04:27] kennyyu: why do you need the newer release? [04:27] musikgoat|main: away for a while, sorry. [04:27] hello, someone get this when tried to run google-chrome? [04:27] [12066:12066:55759498534:FATAL:/b/slave/chrome-official-linux/build/src/app/gfx/font_skia.cc(90)] Check failed: tf. Could not find font: Bitstream Vera Sans [04:27] rankinr: wl_apsta-3.130.30.0.o [04:27] edbian: my download speed is fast in win, so i would like to download it in windows and use with ubuntu.... [04:28] iamblue: Thanks. [04:28] musikgoat|main: ar, we suspect that the jvm does not support multithreading on multiple processor well... [04:28] (my boss just wants to play it safer by installing a newer version) [04:28] rameshwor: Why does it matter which repo the package is in? [04:28] * kennyyu is away for a while [04:28] no prob [04:28] shuffle_ sorry if I'm being verbose, but just trying to see where the problem is. So, you ran tar xfvj broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0.tar.bz2 without problems, right? [04:28] edbian: it doesn't matter but i should be able to find the packags i want.. that matters and where to look for it.... [04:30] can someone help with i problem :/ [04:30] a* [04:30] how do i reinstall or reset gnome? [04:30] edbian: you got my questin ?? [04:30] I haven't tried yet [04:30] rankinr: [04:30] musikgoat|main: and then if i 'apt-get upgrade' i would be directed to download all the updated packages... [04:30] that's the command you're supposed to run, first, according to the instruction [04:30] also, shuffle_: so, the command that you ran, 'sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o' seems to be a bit different than the recommended command: sudo b43-fwcutter --unsupported -w /lib/firmware broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0/kmod/wl_apsta_mimo.o [04:30] barcode, basicly delete your .gnome folder in your home directory [04:31] So I'd try that [04:31] musikgoat|main: so maybe it's easier if there is a way to just pull *one* update from the repos.. [04:31] rameshwor: I don't understand. Please re-phrase your question [04:31] and if it doesn't work, I'm sorry, but I haven't a clue [04:31] kennyyu: a newer distribution carries newer packages, you would want to into building the binary if you need newer on your distribution [04:32] rankinr: Arent I supposed to do both? [04:32] I am trying to install morphing-tools to build a morphix live-cd. I added the repository, "deb http://www.morphix.org/debian unstable/", to /etc/apt/sources.list and performed apt-get update, however when I try to install the right package it says there is no such package. Is this due to how I have the repo listed in sources.list, or what? [04:32] musikgoat|main: actually i see from the website that sun-java6-bin is using '1.6.13'... so can i apt-get to pull it down (without apt-get removing the one that i'm using?) [04:32] shuffle_ not from what I'm reading [04:32] It says you're supposed to run three commands [04:32] i got it thanks to the pastebin post. I added the 1280x1024 section and all is well. now I am just having fun with pulseaudio. I don't understand why the volume is SOOO LOW????? I have checked all teh setting in Gnome ALsa Mixer, I can turn them up but then I get hissing and whining! Any help? [04:32] I'll privmesg them to you [04:32] rameshwor apt-cache show will tell you which repo it's from under Section: [04:32] kennyyu: that is on jaunty, not hardy (9.04 not 8.04) [04:33] musikgoat|main: oh, understood. [04:33] bucky: ok.. === syn-fin is now known as syn-ack-ack-syn [04:33] edbian: ok i'll rephrase that tonight..got to go now. i have exam .. good bye... [04:33] rameshwor: Good luck on your test! [04:34] musikgoat|main: so to either pull the source and build my on apt package, or to download a binary copy from the official java web site -- if not to upgrade my distro? [04:34] #ubuntu-offtopic [04:34] kennyyu: yes, those are the options [04:34] ubuntu is usually offtopic..lmao [04:34] rankinr: So what do I run exactly? [04:34] the three commands I privmeseged you [04:35] don't know if you can get that dialog on an iphone... [04:35] musikgoat|main: OK. Thanks for having offered your help! :D [04:35] so I'll do it here at risk of getting kicked [04:35] kennyyu: yw [04:35] sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.20.0.o [04:35] tar xfvj broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0.tar.bz2 [04:35] sudo b43-fwcutter --unsupported -w /lib/firmware broadcom-wl-4.80.53.0/kmod/wl_apsta_mimo.o [04:36] kenny [04:36] shuffle_: do you know what? You should just ignore me. I'm obviously too tired to be doing this, I realize, after I look at the first command [04:36] kennyyu: apt-cache show java-package [04:37] bucky: thanks, but no revision numbers there... [04:37] bucky: i really need the xx digits in 1.6.0_xx [04:37] shuffle_: Never mind [04:37] kennyyu: it might work.. try it [04:37] Can anyone tell me if I need ident-server installed to join some other channels, like #python? [04:37] You have the file wl_apsta-3.130.30.0.o, when you're running the command for a different version [04:37] I downloaded qvplay to open .cam files from this http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~XG2K-HYS/qvplay-0.93.tar.gz and i extracted it but it's not appearing on the aplications [04:38] bucky: just tried. ;) [04:38] sudo b43-fwcutter -w /lib/firmware wl_apsta-3.130.30.0.o should do ya well [04:38] bucky: but thanks anyway. i'm going to download from the java website instead. :) [04:38] it's strange that you somehow wound up with the wrong file... [04:38] kennyyu: you know you need the dl for java-package to work right? [04:39] kennyyu: what version was it anyway === jack_ is now known as JPSman [04:39] I downloaded qvplay to open .cam files from this http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~XG2K-HYS/qvplay-0.93.tar.gz and i extracted it but it's not appearing on the applications, what'd i do wrong? [04:39] bucky: i have installed 1.6.10 but then i now need 1.6.13 to run on my own 8.10 (or 8.4, not sure..) server [04:40] bucky: sorry need to go... :) [04:40] SO, say you wanted to teach someone C in ubuntu while utilizing graphics, what do YOU think is the best way to do this? [04:41] I downloaded qvplay to open .cam files from this http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~XG2K-HYS/qvplay-0.93.tar.gz and i extracted it but it's not appearing on the applications, what'd i do wrong? [04:41] kennyyu: it's very faq [04:41] I am trying to install morphing-tools to build a morphix live-cd. I added the repository, "deb http://www.morphix.org/debian unstable/", to /etc/apt/sources.list and performed apt-get update, however when I try to install the right package it says there is no such package. Is this due to how I have the repo listed in sources.list, or what? [04:42] kennyyu: http://rblondon.blogspot.com/2007/09/eclipse-and-java-sdk-15-on-debian-etch.html [04:42] bucky: that link doesn't have to do with what kennyyu needs [04:42] musikgoat|main: yes it does [04:42] I downloaded qvplay to open .cam files from this http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~XG2K-HYS/qvplay-0.93.tar.gz and i extracted it but it's not appearing on the applications, what'd i do wrong?

[04:45] JPSman, it just says command not found [04:45] Does anybody know if I can adjust rhythmbox to view my music just by the files themselves like Exaile can? I don't want music to be sorted by ID tag. I just want it to appear "as is" from my music folder. [04:45] hello [04:45] hi [04:45] ompeompe: hi [04:45] bubble? [04:46] ompeompe: Question? [04:46] Shortguy109 - How'd the installation go? Try doing a search for the qvplay binary [04:46] JPSman, i have no idea what that is O_O [04:47] can u help me, i want change my startup but i dont know how [04:47] Shortguy109 - its the compiled version of what you're trying to use. Hang on, still looking at this tar.gz [04:48] ompeompe, what exactly? [04:48] JPSman, okay [04:48] i m running jaunty [04:48] jaunty server, to be exact... [04:49] ubuntu 9 [04:49] ompeompe: What do you mean by "change your startup??" [04:49] hi all.. i have a problem, i just got a kvm switch and when i start my linux machine and windows machine everything works fine but in my linux machine my screen resolution won't go past 640x480 can anyone help me? [04:49] ompeompe, what do you want to change? be more explicit please [04:49] hi all [04:50] How do you use Terminal to open the display manager with root permission? I've done it before, but forgot how. [04:50] i was wondering if anyone knew how to know if i have the uvcvideo installed and if not, how to install it? [04:50] i mean how i can change my screen start up, when i booting [04:50] I am trying to install morphing-tools to build a morphix live-cd. I added the repository, "deb http://www.morphix.org/debian unstable/", to /etc/apt/sources.list and performed apt-get update, however when I try to install the right package it says there is no such package. Is this due to how I have the repo listed in sources.list, or what? [04:50] Amerigo, what "a display manager" is for you? [04:50] Amerigo, sudo [04:50] Amerigo: Go to the display manager launcher in the menu and click and drag it onto the desktop [04:50] all of a sudden sound stopped working. Can someone give me a hint as to where to start hunting this down. I hear a faint hum from them at high volumes, but thats all [04:51] can anyone help me with my problem?? [04:51] Amerigo: Then right click it and hit properties. Are you following me so far?? [04:51] Nvidia xserver settings [04:51] Shortguy109 - yeah ok, what you downloaded only works for windows and macs. It says right in the readme - "For Unix environment user, it is horrible. Furtunately, for Unix user, converting software to CAM format image file (CASIO's original image data format) to JPEG(JFIF) image file is available." [04:51] Amerigo, change user to roo [04:52] Amerigo, sudo or gksu [04:52] Shortguy109 - so it looks like you'll have to use another program to access your .cam [04:52] GhostWolf76: Ubuntu probes your hardware (the screen) to determine what resolutions you monitor can handle. XP doesn't. You switch probably reports only that it can handle 640x480 resolution. I don't think there is an ubuntu work around. [04:52] JPSman, oh.. umm know any? xD [04:52] ompeompe, what is wrong with your boot up screen? how is it now and how do you want it? [04:52] Amerigo: Do you know how to run the command as yourself from terminal? [04:52] Amerigo, I get it, he wanna to install Nvidia driver for #D [04:52] Fohn: pastebin your sources.list [04:52] hi [04:52] Shortguy109 - also in the readme - " 'cam2jpeg' (Auther Jun-ichiro "itojun" Itoh) " [04:53] Amerigo, 3D [04:53] just wanna change, nothing wrong's [04:53] Shortguy109 - also " 'camtoppm.pl' (Auther Shuji Senda ) " [04:53] Anyone use quotetracker in wine for stock market? [04:54] It's already installed. I have to have root access to save the configuration file after making changes. [04:54] edbian it should work for linux i have kubuntu on my linux machine and on the page for the switch which is iogear kvm switch says works with linux but says additional drivers and support may be needed.. [04:54] Amerigo, kill the gdm or stop the gdm, you can run Nvidia drive file in tty1 [04:54] and it works fine with my xp machine which im using right now [04:54] ompeompe, do you ant to change your boot up splash screen?, look for usplash themes and usplash artworks in repositories [04:55] Amerigo, sudo vim file [04:55] Two parts. When you download IE in wine, does that compromise your system and do you have to download it to the windows folder? [04:55] how do you identify urself? [04:55] GhostWolf76: So when you boot using the switch you can't change the resolution to anything higher than 640x480. [04:55] and im using the same monitor just using a kvm switch so i can switch back n forth using same monitor [04:55] JPSman, i can't find where to download cam2jpg [04:55] Shortguy109 - Hangon, i'll looking into your kind of camera [04:55] FLJohn: No and No [04:55] !pm | Fohn [04:55] Fohn: 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. [04:55] Shortguy109 - and what the net has to say about qvplay [04:56] http://pastebin.com/d7964d8ad [04:56] umm exuse me how do i get to the off topic channel? I' new to irc [04:56] Fohn: try removing that '/' on the end of unstable [04:56] GhostWolf76: You probably would benefit from editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf. I don't have a lot of experience with that though. Ask the channel. Sorry I couldn't help more :( [04:56] ebdian i just hooked it up and yes it won't go higher i don't know if anyone knows how to change it or how i can get my linux box to check for changes [04:56] Are older versions of IE avail? [04:56] change it as 'sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf' [04:56] bruenig: Will do, thanks. [04:56] Shadowgirl: "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" [04:56] thanks ebian! your always a great help [04:57] where? what repositories, sorry i used to use vista, never before ubuntu [04:57] bruenig: I get ": Malformed line 60 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (dist parse)" [04:57] Shadowgirl: NP [04:57] Shortguy109 - Do you know how to private message? [04:57] Fohn: that line is bogus [04:57] Fohn, paste your file /etc/apt/sources.list for us [04:57] JPSman, lol! i just found my own way of watching them :) I opened it in Kino and it converted it to .DV [04:57] ompeompe at top left in applications [04:57] Fohn: deb http://www.morphix.org/debian jaunty unstable [04:57] Fohn: it should have something before the unstable [04:58] don't know what it is, but it should have something there [04:58] Shortguy109 - Nice. Will that work for you? [04:58] check the repo [04:58] JPSman, yup, thanks for your help :) [04:58] Shortguy109 - Sure thing. [04:58] hi [04:58] has anyone here used a kvm switch with their linux machine?? im having a problem with the one i just bought [04:58] * JPSman cracks nuckles. Ok, next guy [04:58] JPSman: haha [04:58] ompeompe: At top left under applications (Add/remove) is the repository [04:59] !repository [04:59] The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [04:59] bruenig: Alright, I'll try messing around and putting different stuff in, if what you said still doesn't work. [04:59] sudo apt-get install -f [04:59] okay then what? [04:59] Fohn: the syntax should be deb url distro reponame [04:59] will be fine [04:59] Fohn: what you listed was just deb url reponame, the distro is left out [04:59] ompeompe: what are you trying to do? [05:00] bruenig: Ah, ok thanks. Hopefully that will solve my problem. [05:00] Fohn: unless it is actually deb http://morphix.org/ debian unstable [05:00] which would make some sense [05:00] Yeah that seems to be the case [05:00] because it says that the jaunty package is nonexistant [05:01] FLJohn: i am tryng change startup screen when i loog in [05:01] and when I had it as it was previous I was getting no errors in apt-get update, just wasn't having the desired package available afterwards [05:01] it time for launch [05:01] GhostWolf76: I've had weird behavior from kvms before. Have you tried rebooting with the linux screen is selected? [05:02] ompeompe: you mean the background picture? [05:02] SO, say you wanted to teach someone C in ubuntu while utilizing graphics, what do YOU think is the best way to do this? [05:02] losher no cause i had my linux and windows machine off sinced i had to get a new keyboard and so i was hooking everything up first then start it up [05:02] yes bro [05:03] Ok. I got it. "Sudo nvidia-settings". Lucky guess. [05:03] ompeompe: I am new from windows too but have worked my way through several types of problems. been using for about 2 months now. will never go back to windows. I have even started using some programs made for windows under the windows emulator. [05:03] GhostWolf76: I found it makes a difference, since the monitor gets probed at boot time [05:03] !cd [05:03] Sorry, I don't know anything about cd [05:03] losher ok let me give that a try [05:04] ubottu, download iso img [05:04] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:04] On line 3, http://pastebin.com/f31429638 , I get a dvdrw drive error. I'm just trying to play a regular music cd and this error pops up from time to time, not consistently broken. Any ideas why the drive is confused over itself? [05:05] FLJohn: yeah maybe u'r right, do u know beryl? [05:05] bruenig: Reviewing the log of 'apt-get update', I see that the parts with the morphix repo are preceded by 'Ign' as opposed to 'hit', could this be part of the issue? [05:05] ompeompe: You want compiz fusion [05:05] ompeompe: beryl is now part of compiz fusion (the fusion of compiz and beryl) [05:06] ompeompe: what version of linux are you using? [05:06] losher that worked.. that did work.. thanks man least someone told me something simple that can help me lol [05:06] FLJohn: sorry myfriend, compiz what? [05:06] instulation is diff for each [05:06] team.org [05:06] FLJohn: jaunty, if i ain't correct 9 version [05:06] ompeompe: look up at google how to get Compiz Fusion [05:07] !intel [05:07] Ubuntu 9.04 has a known regression for some Intel graphics support. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Troubleshooting/IntelPerformance and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1130582 for more information. [05:07] compiz fusion and beryl merged, there is no beryl now [05:07] GhostWolf76: been there.... [05:07] hi , how to download from remote server with ssh from megavideo any help ? [05:07] rather, compiz and beryl did, and compiz fusion is the result [05:07] losher: Did you edit is xorg.conf? What worked! (good job btw) [05:07] ompeompe: http://linuxdesk.wordpress.com/2009/06/15/install-compiz-compiz-fusion-plugins-on-ubuntu-9-04/ [05:07] ata2.00: model number mismatch [05:07] ompeompe, FLJohn: Compiz should already be installed if you are using a recent version of Ubuntu, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager for more information [05:07] Fohn: well ign means ignore so [05:08] compiz fusion is much nicer than beryl was, alot more stable, and yeah, its default in ubuntu for the last few released. === curtis is now known as Guest56603 [05:08] darlek: looks like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/153575 [05:08]  Pici: I believe I had to go in and check market them in synaptic [05:08] bruenig: I got that much, I just don't know how to make it not ignore it [05:08] losher, ah launchpad..thanks I'll take a look [05:08] well thanks losher im glad you used a kvm switch and had a problem when it comes to a linux box [05:08] FLJohn: compiz is in ubuntu by default. [05:09] edbian: no, just reboot with the linux screen selected. The monitor gets probed at boot time... [05:09] losher: OIC it probes through the switch to the monitor! Tricky tricky [05:10] losher: Thanks for letting me know as well :) [05:10] how do I mount an iso image in ubuntu? [05:10] FLJohn: thanx for helping me [05:10] GhostWolf76: I've had worse problems than that with kvms. I think belkins have a bug switching between windows & linux that has never been fixed! [05:10] and all u guys [05:10] jsjones: same way you mount any filesystem.. What have you tried? [05:10] lol @ losher well the brand i got is IOGear [05:10] edbian: I am a newb- what should I try first? [05:11] jsjones: Alright open the terminal :) [05:11] it only cost me 15 bucks as i've seen online i've got it cheaper than that [05:11] edbian: ok [05:11] i have installed googleearth with googleearth-package tool, it does not run and report me this error: /usr/lib/googleearth/googleearth-bin: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/googleearth/libssl.so.0.9.8: undefined symbol: EVP_idea_cbc [05:11] ; libssl0.9.8 is installed. Any idea? [05:11] jsjones: firstly lets make a file to put the ISO in (mount it so to speak). The proper place to put a file for mounting is in /media or /mnt Which would you like to use? [05:12] edbian: /media I guess [05:12] GhostWolf76: I like kvms but they are sometimes temperamental. Occasionally I have to disconnect mine so the power goes off completely and then reconnect it. Good luck with yours. [05:12] Hi, - is there any way to get the pcspkr to always work through the physical machine instead of the client machine when connecting and running programs via ssh? - I've got a prpogram which uses the \a output, but it beeps through the ssh client machine instad of the host. thanks [05:12] jsjones: alright. /media is owned by root so we have to be root to put a folder in there. sudo gives root power. mkdir makes a directory and then add a name like ISO or something [05:12] jsjones: The whole command together is "sudo mkdir ISO" [05:13] losher thanks so far only prob i had was just this one lol and all you have to do to switch back n forth is hit scroll lock button twice [05:13] jsjones: (You have to be in /media of course) [05:13] anywho thanks again losher imma go [05:13] jsjones: otherwise "sudo mkdir /media/ISO" [05:13] hi , how to download from remote server with ssh from megavideo any help ? [05:13] edbian: okay I made the directory [05:14] jsjones: alrighty [05:14] jsjones: Where is the ISO file? [05:14] has anyone been able to work a Logitech Quickcam Fusion on Ubuntu Jaunty? [05:14] edbian: on a harddrive [05:14] edbian: its already mounted and I can access the file [05:15] How do I get around this sort of error from dpkg? dpkg: error processing ... kdebase-runtime... trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu', which is also in package kdesudo [05:15] jsjones: More specifically ( /home/jsjones/ISO) ?? [05:15] carlitos__: are you sure you got that right? Video sites *never* use ssh as far as I know... [05:15] can anyone tell me the difference between WINE and PlayOnLinux? [05:15] edbian: the file is at /media/harddrive/file.iso [05:16] carlitos__, right ... is the site http or ftp? [05:16] alright [05:16] jsjones: To mount we need root power again so "sudo mount /media/harddrive/file.iso /media/ISO" [05:16] http [05:17] carlitos__, you can use wget [05:17] so any chance i'll see vlc1.0 in this version of ubuntu? [05:17] but always get a error forbiden [05:17] derenrich_, compile it yourself [05:17] carlitos__: don't you just watch the videos in firefox? [05:18] R_YoYo_R: i'm considering it, but I don't want the package to update later and that to conflict with my install and such [05:18] jsjones: Did it work? [05:18] losher: sure I do , but want to have it in my remote server :( [05:18] edbian: it says "is not a block device (maybe try `-o loop'?)" [05:18] derenrich_, just pay attention to the updates. keep the source and uninstall when the new one is available [05:18] jsjones:??? odd. Yes try that [05:18] i have a strange problem. on some of my programs, like for instance wormux. the game is closed and the music still plays, how can i stop the music? [05:18] -o === alan_ is now known as crumblebumble [05:19] carlitos__: so try R_YoYo_R's suggestion with wget [05:19] I did , just get an error [05:19] jsjones: sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 /.../file.iso /media/ISO [05:19] edbian: it worked! thank you very much [05:20] any suggestions about pcspkr over ssh ? [05:20] jsjones: NP. Also there is a GUI app you can install called gmount-iso [05:20] ;) [05:20] edbian: cool [05:20] does anyone know the difference between WINE and PlayOnLinux? [05:20] jsjones: Happy ubuntu-ing! [05:21] Hoss, never heard of plyonlinux .... you have to pay for that? [05:21] R_YoYo_R: I went to thier site and it looks free [05:21] i stopped a program, but the music it was playing does not stop, anyone know how i can stop the music without restarting the pc [05:22] kill process [05:22] anyone know why clicking on "computer" in the "places" menu is crashing nautilus? [05:22] Hoss: playonlinux looks like wine with some value added stuff: http://www.playonlinux.com/en/dev-documentation-5.html. (See also cedega and crossover office). [05:22] how do i kill the process, i don't know the ubuntu version of the taskmanager...?? [05:23] happens for "network" as well [05:23] kill -9 [05:23] Hoss, looks like play on linux is based on wine [05:23] R_YoYo_R: Yeah, I just dont know if it is better than. [05:23] i've got a decently working system, and I'm afraid that futzing with it and messing aroung with it will cause things to break etc etc. whats the right way to set a restore point [05:24] How do I get around this sort of error from dpkg? dpkg: error processing ... kdebase-runtime... trying to overwrite `/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kdesu', which is also in package kdesudo [05:24] Hoss, what windows app do you need to run? If windows apps are vital and you have a copy of windows i would run virtualbox and just run windows on top of linux [05:24] is there a gui version of taskmanager for ubuntu [05:24] R_YoYo_R: Games, and virtualbox/VMware dont really support them very well. [05:25] Hoss, very true. What game you need to run? [05:25] crumblebumble -> no such thing as restore point i know of within linux, but you can try cloning [05:25] !clone crumblebumble [05:25] Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) [05:25] i cannot see the network connection i created. where can i activate the network card pls?

Would anyone be able to help walk me through a fix [05:32] crumblebumble, have you tried alsa reload?

[05:38] clusty: See if this helps: http://embraceubuntu.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/ [05:38] sheep1364, in sda [05:38] I tried installing FF 3.5, apparently it didn't place icons anywhere, or even a listing in the start menu [05:39] trying to command my htpc's volume from a laptop. when i run "ssh skabooty@wdma alsamixer" from the laptop (wdma is the htpc) I get "Error opening terminal: unknown." anyone know a fix? [05:39] ohletmeinnowjesu: what *kind* of modem? dsl, cable, dialup?

[05:41] Hi - anyone know of the name for the command line application that was developed by IBM that advises on how to optimise your pc? It tells you what files to edit and commands to run in order to reduce load on your cpu etc [05:42] ohletmeinnowjesu: might be easier to lookup the model & see if it's in the specs. Otherwise, you'll have to connect to it & type AT commands at it === fartbooger is now known as Adabesi [05:42] crumblebumble, its trying to use pulseaudio..do you know how to change it to alsa? [05:42] stink: don't be a snob. Some people still use dialup.... [05:42] losher: you mean like terminal into it? [05:43] anyone use dialup? [05:43] oldude67 not a clue [05:43] im thinking of cutting costs and using dialup ... is it tolerable? [05:43] crumblebumble, ask some of the others as i look threw my notes on what could be problem. [05:43] losher: im too lazy to go googling + dell surfing... its here in front of me...all i need to do is get an eeprom dump [05:43] hey linux folks, why can't I man anything from section three? e.g. man 3 rand says no manual entry. am i missing a -doc package somewhere?

[05:44] Can some one help me fix this problem with Amarok? "Object::connect: No such signal KLineEdit::downPressed() in /build/buildd/amarok-2.1.1mysql5.1.30/amarok-2.1.1/src/widgets/ProgressiveSearchWidget.cpp:57 [05:44] QSystemTrayIcon::setVisible: No Icon set" [05:44] losher: because your not google nor are you dell's maze of a website [05:45] crumblebumble, go into systems settings under multimedia and see if you can change it there.. [05:45] ohletmeinnowjesu: sorry, just lost interest in your problem... [05:45] losher: sorry never took your vague attempt seriously [05:45] anyone? [05:45] losher, does not help. the scaling works. its just a matter of setting the default mode to ondemand or conservative as oposed to maxperformance [05:46] * losher sometimes thinks it would be better to charge for support [05:46] the network connection i added is not in the list of connections when i try to connect, why? [05:46] oldude67 sorry, really slow here, is that in the menu? under settings somewhere? [05:47] where is the correct place to change the niceness of mysqld??

I added the repository, "deb http://www.morphix.org/debian unstable/", to /etc/apt/sources.list and performed apt-get update, however when I try to install the right package it says there is no such package. Is this due to how I have the repo listed in sources.list, or what? [05:48] nm found it - installed manpages-dev. [05:49] crumblebumble, what packages where you installing when you lost sound? [05:49] clusty: in the comments, it looks like if you have /usr/bin/cpufreq-selector you can execute it by hand, which implies you can arrange to have it run automatically, which sounds like it would solve your problem [05:50] when I try to open a torrent in firefox it shows transmission as the default how can I set it to deluge? [05:50] associate torrent files with deluge [05:50] How do i find better porn than what came with my standard install? [05:51] lolcash: Please take it elsewhere. [05:51] i hadnt been playing anything with sound for a while when i was working on stuff. I did install wine and MS office under that, but i dont imagine that would have affected it. I did reboot a couple of times. the pulseaudio stuff was me attempting to try and fix it [05:51] crumblebumble, see my private message for you [05:51] I use an external smtp server to send/receive mail how to configure ubuntu to do the same?? I understand that postfix is the default MTA, should I use that or go for exim?? [05:52] rags: I've seen tutorials that show you how to configure postfix to send via an smtp host. I'd google for one of those first... [05:53] rags: receiving mail is separate. Are you sure you also want mail *delivered* to your ubuntu system? [05:53] !ff3.5 [05:53] Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 | For Hardy see http://is.gd/1jkNY [05:53] losher: I did search, but mostly I got tutorials on setting up your own smtp server, but I've got something now... [05:54] losher, ok that might be one solution. I was hoping of another: at some point i found a "registry" :D setting for gnome, that prescribes the default cpufreq behaviour [05:54] losher: I want to only send actaully I want it for notifications only [05:54] ff3.5 just got installed on my system, but it is still the pre release version that is loading [05:55] rags: send-only is much simpler. I thought I saw someone do it in half a dozen lines of postfix config.... [05:55] does anyone know how to connect to a laptops built in modem to read its hardware details ? [05:55] albech: the final release version of firefox-3.5 uses the Shiretoko branding on jaunty, if that's what you mean [05:56] rags: personally, I use ssmtp, which really does only take 6 lines of config. It's not perfect, but it's a cinch to set up [05:56] Can you update a standard intrepid build to netbook remix, using tasksel or the like? [05:56] rww, im just puzzled cause it still say 'version 3.5.1pre' in the about [05:57] How can I tell if im running in a 64bit ubuntu or not? what command do use? [05:57] ohletmeinnowjesu: the "lshw" command gives you a bit of info about your hardware. it may or may not be enough. [05:57] albech: run the command "apt-cache policy firefox-3.5" in a terminal, copy the output to http://paste.ubuntu.com/, and link the paste page here [05:57] i dont know how to activate the cable connection(LAN) cannot find it in google [05:57] JPSman: uname -a [05:58] mistalo: ifconfig eth0 up [05:58] JPSman: if "uname -m" returns x86_64, you're running 64bit.

By the look of it, that PPA is claiming to have Firefox 3.5.1 nightlies in it. If you want Ubuntu's Firefox 3.5 package, remove the PPA and its firefox-3.5 package, then sudo apt-get update and try again. [06:01] rww, ty [06:01] mistalo: you should from terminal figure out what your wired connection is by doing --- ifconfig | awk '{ print $1 }' --- or such [06:01] what are ubuntu releases named after?

[06:07] nsadmin: thanks for the tip [06:07] * CutMeOwnThroat hands JPSman a mirror-mirror-on-the wall called apt-file [06:07] mistalo: the contents of ifconfig will give you a general idea as to waht the internet devices configured are.... eth0 is ethernet 0 ... wlan0 would be wireless....this is the information you need [06:08] JPSman: does this help: http://www.digitalsanctum.com/2007/01/28/libstdc-libc62-2so3-on-ubuntu/ [06:08] i think in the topic when logging in there should be sign that says ask google first..lmao [06:09] tyler_d: i have 2 connetions up. lo and ppp0 [06:09] tyler_d: one must be the umts stick [06:09] I think the factoid that tells people not to tell people to use Google should be made clearer. [06:09] oldude67, do you need additional proof that the people who don't use google dont read topics either? [06:09] !google [06:09] google is the helpers' friend; many newer users dont have the google-fu yet; For GNU/Linux: http://google.com/linux [06:10] Has anyone got 2 video cards working in linux, i have 2 9800GT nvidia cards and i load the drivers and it hangs at Checking battery state, and i can only get into console, if i take one out then i can get into linux and it works fine, but if their both in, its a no go, UsinG SLi [06:10] how can I reconfigure my xorg??

[06:12] tyler_d: i downloaded the driver already [06:12] mistalo: ensure that cat /etc/network/interfaces has eth0 configurations in it. [06:12] c0l2e1, edit the file. and add it to the listed resolutions [06:12] mistalo: I'm no good with drivers :s === khisanth_ is now known as Khisanth [06:13] JPSman: sorry, I'm running 8.04. Maybe someone with 9.04 can help you.... [06:13] R_YoYo_R: sorry but not familiar to it [06:13] K [06:13] losher: thank you :OD [06:14] JPSman, i missed the question. what are you needing help with?

[06:14] hi guys, what about a good netbook for linux? [06:14] R_YoYo_R: er, no, specifically libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 [06:15] JPSman: I should've asked, why do you need that particular version? [06:15] JPSman, apt-get install apt-file;apt-file update;apt-file search filename [06:16] I have a quick grub related question if anyone has a minute ?

Im just a bit lost on exactly where to point grub to, [06:18] I've got an iPod Shuffle that seems to have 100MB of inexplicable "other" data I can't remove. How would I go about cleaning that off? [06:18] what is a good browser for ubuntu other than firefox [06:18] ?

[06:19] also Midori. I guess my factoid suggestion didn't get added :( [06:19] thanks dude [06:19] my video card is poo, so i'll try that the next time i can download it [06:19] no problem [06:20] dail up here, so... sometimelater =\ [06:20] Dayofswords, i didnt say it was poo , what type of card is it?

[06:22] hi all [06:22] i looked at my sytem info on windows and every where it just says "n/a" [06:22] hi, anyone uses geany for html ? cause it doesn't autocomplete the tags ??

[06:23] anyone know anything about getting nvidia drivers to work? : ) [06:25] !anyone [06:25] 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? [06:25] * JPSman shrugs at losher. I'm updating apt-file now, maybe that'll find it [06:26] JPSman: I'm guessing that 9.04 has a newer version of libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3. You may be able to get away with installing the newer version and placing a link to the new one with the old one's name, if you see what I mean [06:27] JPSman, did you try apt-get install build-essential [06:27] ? [06:27] so how does one disable Network Manager? [06:27] R_YoYo_R, any thoughts? [06:27] or tell it not to manage a partciluar device? [06:27] R_YoYo_R: No but I will once apt-file is done updating. Thank you :OD [06:28] JPSman: apt-file takes forever to update.... [06:28] not longer than you've discussed this, though :) [06:28] losher..or anyone else , im running knoppix off of a thumb drive ... not the latest knoppix either, does it having a different version of grub from what a ubuntu live cd would , make a difference? [06:29] JPSman, losher, for what its worth.... apt-file doesnt find it on 9.04 [06:29] Losher: the only thing I see in the synaptic package for libstdc++-libc6.* is libstdc++-libc6.4. Well, that and I wouldn't know how to A.) Download just the new version B.) Where to put it manually :OD [06:29] ....... [06:29] Thank you R_YoYo_R :O' [06:29] JPSman, losher, however build-essential should take care of the files needed [06:29] How do I tell if I've been rooted? [06:31] asfasdfa: run chkrootkit [06:31] asfasdfa: thats an odd question unless you have indications already [06:31] JPSman: well, you could install libstdc++-libc6.4. Then we could look and see which version of libstdc++-libc6 it installed... [06:31] R_YoYo_R: Yeah just tried the build-essential, said I already had it [06:32] asfasdfa: it's quite rare to be 'rooted', you understand.... [06:32] well, is there a message "haha, you're pwned" on your screen? [06:32] JPSman, what about libstdc++6-4.3 [06:32] actually, come to think of it... I think now there is :-P [06:33] any idea? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/396874 [06:33] CutMeOwnThroat: less comedy, more support.... [06:33] JPSman: open a terminal, type sudo bash [06:33] moral! support!

[07:18] syroth: even if it's not (hd0,0), you can tinker around with grub's shell to find out the exact one [07:18] oly562: try "sudo apt-get install gparted", and then look at http://www.fsckin.com/2007/10/21/partitioning-or-resizing-drives-in-ubuntu-using-gparted/ It's a graphical utility that may give you a better idea of how your drives are set up.

[07:25] ultrasonic: start with /var/log/messages [07:25] doesn't wine mean "Wine Is Not an Emulator"? :D [07:25] dragon_ i see - so just install and use the bd drive in same way as a dvd drive and use vlc or similar to play the commercial bd films - right? [07:25] if Ventrilo is a windows program it might [07:25] dragon_, yes [07:26] it will mout the same [07:26] yes its a program for windows [07:26] dragon_ no speical problems with hdcp or similar??? [07:26] ventrilo, good luck getting that working like it should [07:26] yea :/ [07:26] I've found out not all windows programs run in wine but most I've tried do [07:26] ventrilo is a native linux app .... wine is not needed [07:26] Bryan: go and web search for stuff you need to know about, you clearly have a tonne of questions and its not hugely fair to voluntees to just roll them out. You will find more info online [07:26] frybye: you should take a look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/BluRayAndHDDVD [07:26] no its not [07:26] oh thats what i thought!!!

[07:28] oly562: hmm, gparted will help show you what type of partitions you have on your machine. 'sudo fdisk -l' would probably work too. once you know that, then you can try to mount it. [07:28] hanasaki: Just update the system and when you launch firefox the new version will start by itself. [07:28] hanasaki: sudo ln -sfv /usr/bin/firefox-3.5 /usr/bin/firefox [07:29] linuxguy2009: thanks but 3.5 and 3.0 are on the system and 3.0 launches.

[07:42] papul: you can show running apps, not sure about files [07:42] ruby_on_tail1: haha no worries. The command is simple though [07:43] dragon, so i have been trying to figure out what to do about this but I cant , root (hd0,1) setup (hd0,0) or setup (hd0,1) both return an error saying grub cant find stage 1 [07:43] papul: hmm, lsof may be what you want. if you want to see what files are open. [07:43] can i export the output of the ls command to a text file???? [07:43] papul: i guess you could look at what the processes are doing and determine the file content [07:43] papul: lsof >> lsof.txt [07:43] papul: or ls >> ls.txt [07:43] Which I guess is related to why the 'find' command never worked? i thought nothing of it until now..thinking of it as more of a inconvenience than anything [07:43] ls -al papul > files.txt [07:44] depending on what you are trying to do to [07:44] what does -al do?

[07:52] any kubuntu friends here ? [07:53] syroth: if grub is gone, you might want to restore it - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows [07:53] cattellar: consider using Disk Usage Analyzer (under Application > Accessories) [07:53] dragon, sorry, I tried that too, give me a moment and I will transcribe that error [07:54] @ dragon .. u got time?

[07:57] stephans: should we update the libsoup packages on webkit-team ppa? [07:57] dragon, and because of that error im not sure if trying another livecd will make any difference, [07:57] Hi. I have a problem with my gDesklets. In the past, i configured gDesklets by clicking the icon at the information field right. But now, if i klick right (or left) nothing happens. What's wrong? [07:57] linuxguy2009: With a little bit of work you'd be able to do so, sure. [07:57] stephans: thanks === desti_T2 is now known as desti [07:57] syroth: does /dev/hda exist? [07:57] aah ty flannel sec or two [07:58] linuxguy2009: easiest way to do it would just be to reset the homedir to a default after log out (or during log in) [07:58] is hda even used anymore? [07:58] i thought everything was swrapped in scsi (/dev/sd*) [07:58] discorpia: No, the kernel has moved everything to sdX [07:58] dragon, yes sir, knoppix also mounted /dev/hda* to /media/hda* [07:59] syroth: Ubuntu might be calling that /dev/hda something else. Names are not tied to the drives.. [07:59] dragon, come to think of it, doesnt knoppix auto mount read onlyh? if so, do you think that might do it? somehow? [07:59] Flannel:So I would have to somehow erase the home folder of the account before logging out, that what you mean? [07:59] dragon, true, im pretty sure it was /dev/hda.. let me see if i can tell [07:59] syroth: blkid [07:59] dragon, cmd? [07:59] linuxguy2009: You don't have to do it before logging out, there are some hooks if I remember correctly where you can run things on log out/log in from gnome [08:00] syroth: yes, run that in Ubuntu to see a list of partitions. If /dev/hda isn't present, it's being called something else. [08:00] Flannel:Wow that sounds like it. Thank you very much. Im gonna see if i can find a way. [08:01] Anyone know how to mount a ide-usb drive to a filesys on laptop? thanks [08:01] cmd line please, thanks [08:01] Flannel: Gnome has an option to start a Guest session. Can't we trigger the same thing from gdm? [08:01] dragon, okay, well its getting a bit late for me , and at this point I have to reboot--try to load a *ubuntu live cd, so I will give it a few tries before sleep [08:01] dragon, on that note, thank you so much for your help, [08:02] syroth: you're welcome, and good luck. [08:02] dragon_: Not that I'm aware of. I believe it needs somone else to be logged in (and last I heard, there were some other issues with the guest session anyway) [08:02] Flannel: Im wondering if I simply make a bash script and have it fire up at login using startup apps settings. What do you think? [08:03] linuxguy2009: have you looked at the package gdm-guest-session? i found it referenced here; https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/gdm-guest-login never used it myself though, so not sure if it what it sounds like [08:04] linuxguy2009: i belive it's possible to mount the "guest" user's home directory to a temporary directory so it doesn't persist [08:04] Oh yeah that sounds awsome. Ill check it out. thanks [08:05] According to gdm-guest-session package's description, The command to launch a guest session is /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-launch [08:05] iirc, there is a way to configure custom commands in GDM [08:05] gdm-guest-session is already installed on my system. hmm [08:05] linuxguy2009: yes, that's why you see a "Guest session" option in the switcher [08:06] Hey how can i move my mouse with keybaoard buttons [08:06] dragon_: Yeah the guest session is great but it doesnt seem to be available from the gnome login screen. I need it to be. [08:06] Anyone know how to mount a ide-usb drive to a filesys on laptop? i need to format the drive 1st, then mount it all via this ide-usb cable adapter... possible? i think so lol [08:07] linuxguy2009: try adding a custom command to the GDM. Go to System > Administration > Login Window > Commands... [08:07] linuxguy2009: and add the command /usr/share/gdm/guest-session/guest-session-launch [08:07] how can i force the apt-cache to be rebuild? [08:07] hi [08:07] erry i used to know,, heck that was a long time ago lol... its a hotkey for sure [08:07] oly562, it's not a hotkey [08:07] there's an option somewhere but i dont remember where [08:07] fine, erry, figure it out yourself ;) [08:07] I am having a problem when logging into my LTSP server(edubuntu 9.04) the client logs into/onto the server, and asks fir username /passwd, once it is entered the pc freezes, [08:08] would ask in #ltsp but no one home [08:08] found it [08:08] thanks for ur help [08:08] with apt cache i mean the list of packages from apt-get update. i added a source then removed it [08:08] hatori: sudo apt-get autoclean [08:08] and the packages are still inside [08:08] i really appreciate it [08:08] Morning all. Can anyone tell me approximately how many Megs need to be downloaded to upgrade from 8.1 to 9.04? [08:08] hatori: for that, simply `sudo apt-get update` [08:09] is there another way to create a usb bootable disc withot unetbootin [08:09] Ascavasaion: that depends on the amount of packages you have installed [08:09] Ascavasaion: about 800 MB [08:09] dragon_: still inside [08:09] i tried that [08:09] hatori: inside as in, still installed? [08:09] no as in. i still find it in aptitude search or apt-cache search [08:10] @flannel done [08:10] dragon_, Ouch... that is more than what I have left of my monthly cap :( [08:10] hatori: you need to remove the packages manually. To list all those packages, check the "Local/Obsolete" section under Synaptic [08:10] it conflicts with packages that should be in the official sources [08:10] mob: What's the URL? [08:10] i already removed them [08:10] um sec [08:10] their not marked as installed. they just won't let me install the stock ubuntu [08:10] Ascavasaion: request or order a CD then.. [08:10] dragon_, I know... but I am such an impatient person hehehehe [08:10] gparted is not recognizing my second drive nor my ide-usb drive. how to mount both? [08:11] hatori: have you removed the sources that you added previously? [08:11] pastebin.com/m7b8b6e7e [08:11] Ascavasaion: lol yeah. if i were in your place i'd do the same [08:11] hi guys, can someone tell me how to check the ALSA driver version i have installed ? [08:11] dragon_: yus. can it be that the last update is too recent and apt won't rerun a real update? [08:11] dragon_: normally itll download about 10 megs or package metadata [08:11] Anybody knows where to fing the log of the latest installed packages? [08:12] mob: The last line in that file is wrong. I don't know what it's supposed to be, but simply removing it will fix the error. [08:12] hatori: no, apt-get update really updates your apt's list. [08:12] hatori: what are you using to check the list after updating? [08:12] does anyone know if its possible to set Evolution to show a list of the upcoming events from the calendar but in the mail view?

[10:01] Shanel, Go in system monitor and check the space allocated for "/" partition [10:02] bullgard4, not that im expecting you to promise anything but what time is it where you live and when do you think would be on tomorrow? [10:02] vise it did it when I loaded the disk. I didn't see to where I could change any settings [10:02] burn windows!!! [10:02] Shane1: can you paste the output of df -h into pastebin?

[10:23] that file doesn't need any refresing [10:23] exia_ : just restart your browser if its firefox [10:23] exia_, yeah that's right, restart firefox [10:23] dipplum, justanothercoder, i need to make my external ip visible to teeworlds server :P === adam is now known as Guest75837 [10:23] yverebooooo [10:24] exia_ could you elaborate? [10:24] if firefox is reading /etc/hosts, that's broken... the resolver lib should be the only thing reading it [10:24] What's the mail command in terminal on ubuntu? Just 'mail' doesn't work, and i'd be surprised if there's no cmd builting [10:24] exia_: reboot [10:24] exia_ setting the hosts file on your server does not mean a hostname will resolve to your server, for that you need to change your domain DNS record [10:24] how to enable wired network [10:24] exia_ : the hosts file is only for your machine, all changes are only local [10:25] Guest75897: Are you using 64bit? [10:25] Guest75837: what kind? modem? ethernet? something else? usb? [10:25] ethenet [10:25] sagemode: what does 64 bit have to do with internt?? [10:25] http://pastebin.com/d44091846 [10:25] ok, try this: sudo ifconfig eth0 [10:25] justanothercoder, well... so my game server is visible by exia.gotdns.org:8303 but players cant play if they enter my IP and it is necessary for servers browser in the game [10:25] do you get an error? [10:25] nsadmin : firefox caches dns records i think [10:25] maybe that will help [10:25] 32 bit [10:25] justanothercoder, what can be the prob? [10:26] hmm [10:26] where can i get the original MAC of eth0 after i did a "ifconfig eth0 hw ether..."? i dont want to reboot [10:27] justanothercoder: well... I still say that's broken or at least inconvenient [10:27] Shane1: Seems you only assigned 2.3gig to your linux system [10:27] exia_ you say your game server is visible, how ar eyou testing that? [10:27] can I change it? [10:28] Guest75837: do you get an error when you do that? [10:28] Shane1, is this a wubi install? ie, inside of windows? [10:28] yes [10:28] justanothercoder, i enter the game and play on it, but I can play only entering exia.gotdns.org:8303 or localhost:8303 and NOT my IP which is necessary for other players who want to find my server -.- [10:28] I think sorry I am all new to this [10:29] Shane1: Np :) Did you install Ubuntu from inside windows? [10:29] does Intrepid have fully working fglrx? [10:29] exia_ are you accessing it from the same machine that has the game? [10:29] justanothercoder, but maybe thats all visible only for me [10:29] justanothercoder, yes === ben is now known as Guest19526 [10:29] exia_ : that explains it. you set the hosts file, so its obviously visible for you [10:30] Guest75837: are you still here? [10:30] no === Cyberworm is now known as Wurm|off [10:30] does Intrepid Ibex (8.10) have a fully working fglrx driver? [10:30] I installed a rt73 driver and now it loads instead of the rt73usb driver at startup. How would i make rt73usb dirver load instead at startup ? [10:30] justanothercoder, but how to make it visible for others in global? the server console said that it registered my server (i set up my router firewall rules and opened the needed port) [10:30] or is it the same evil present in Jaunty? [10:31] justanothercoder, but still nobody can find it in servers browser [10:31] popartin: I agree. It is no wise wording. Only to be explained for historical reasons. [10:31] exia_ i don't think your port is open [10:31] I guess i need to delete this and start over huh? [10:32] exia_ i just checked, and its certainly not listening, maybe its bound to your localhost only and not listening on the external interface [10:32] Shane1: I have no clue if you can change your partition size [10:32] justanothercoder, well ok then i need to check my router... [10:32] ya [10:32] justanothercoder, thankie [10:32] exia_ yep, no worries [10:33] Thanks Gij [10:33] justanothercoder, but web server works and FTP ^^ [10:33] Guest75837: do you get an error when you do "sudo ifconfig eth0"? [10:33] maybe the firewall rules or something [10:33] exia_ [10:34] Is there a default built-in mail command in Ubuntu? [10:34] no erro [10:34] ok, so you get a paragraph about eth0? [10:35] yes i think there is an error [10:35] what is it? [10:35] justanothercoder, do I need NAT in my router enabled? [10:35] and what do you mean you think :) it's right there either way [10:35] there are two error [10:35] justanothercoder, it's Acorp if any... NAT is enabled and Firewall option is disabled, but still need to forward ports [10:35] one is this " RX packets:21 errors:0 dropped:3497140361 overruns:0 frame:" [10:36] another error is "TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0" [10:36] oh, so you get a paragraph about eth0 that shows there are errors? [10:36] like: [10:37] etn0 blah blah [10:37] more blah etc [10:37] yes? [10:37] i have problem with my wired network [10:37] hello [10:38] Guest75837: wait, answer the question first... do you see something like: [10:38] etn0 blah blah [10:38] more blah etc [10:39] no [10:39] exia_ your webserver seems to be listening on public ip, so not sure what the problem is === yacc__ is now known as yacc [10:40] exia_ i think its got something to do with the config of your game server [10:40] Hello all, I'm having trouble trying to use the linux release of the piePhone unlocking tool "redsn0w".

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 ..." [11:25] on the time of starting my machine it will ask in how i boot (Windows or Ubuntu) [11:26] then choose ubuntu [11:26] yes [11:26] and use internet in there [11:26] caps lock light?

[11:29] not a problem thx for that bye take care [11:30] yo yo yo [11:30] hola [11:30] If all I have is one hard-disk, how do I write zeros to it? I mean, since there's only one, I can't boot from an OS installed on another. [11:31] I could use a live-cd, come to think of it. OK, so how do I do that? Or any other tool, really. [11:31] elad`: use a live cd [11:31] elad`: if you want to write 0s to the disk you can boot to a live cd and use: sudo dd if=/dev/zero of/dev/sda (assuming your disk is /dev/sda, check what it is with sudo fdisk -l) [11:31] sorry its [11:32] sudo dd if/dev/zero of=/dev/sda [11:32] damniy [11:32] lol [11:32] sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda [11:32] thanks [11:32] np [11:32] ;) [11:32] my hands are quicker than my brain [11:32] lol happens the the best of us [11:32] Thanks. It would take me a while to download the livecd, though (doing that now, but the store is closing...). Is there anything else? [11:33] A specific tool? [11:33] elad`: that will write 0s until the end of the disk [11:33] elad`: use a gentoo minimal cd, its about 8mb [11:33] or a minimal ubuntu cd which is about the same size [11:33] hello ,. i need help to install this patch 4 my webcam http://osdir.com/ml/linux.drivers.spca50x.devel/2008-05/msg00003.html [11:33] !patch [11:33] Patches are files describing the changes in code to achieve some results. There are a number of ways these can be produced, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/PatchSystems may provide some useful guidelines. [11:34] elad`: just anything that will give a cli interface will do, you dont need a full blown x desktop [11:34] ActionParsnip: I found one that's 80mb, not 8mb. [11:34] ActionParsnip: Could you link me? [11:34] elad`: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso [11:34] 9.9Mb [11:35] elad`: MD5 = http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/mini.iso [11:35] nm [11:35] Found it. Thanks. [11:35] md5 = c407656fcb6150ca08729485d46decf7 [11:35] What's the MD5 for? [11:35] elad`: to check the ISO you download is correct and complete [11:35] kebomix: what webcam is it [11:35] anyone know of an extension that can save the currently open tabs in firefox? [11:35] elad`: you should ALWAYS check you ISO files [11:35] Is it ever really an issue? [11:36] sdc: well,firefox does that automatically doesnt it? How exactly do u want to save it? [11:36] elad`: it just shows the file is correct so if your installs are weird then you KNOW its not the CD [11:36] elad`: if you dont, you have no idea at all if the CD yuo have burned is right or not [11:36] indus: i want to hold multiple sessions [11:36] elad`: i never check md5 [11:37] !md5 [11:37] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [11:37] i ALWAYS check it, saves heartache later when you realise your ISO was broken and you've spent a few days trying to get an install to work when the media was to blame [11:37] it takes a minute and gives you piece of mind [11:37] Thanks. Got to reboot. BRB. [11:37] indus: that's wut appears on lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 17a1:0118 , alot of ppl can't get it work under linux cuz it is not supported , but i found that patch made by someone to get it work [11:38] ActionParsnip: in theory yes [11:38] kebomix: what make of webcam [11:39] hey guys i just went through the painstaking process of installing my conexant soft modem, is there anyway i can test it? other than trying to connect to the ISP? Like a local loopback traffic test or some kind of query? [11:39] indus: i think its a snap to do and very wrth it, the md5 isnt there for kicks so I use it. Ive helped many on answers.launchpad.net with MD5 checks [11:39] indus: it is chinese cheap webcam called PENMTUIM , the important is the ship :) [11:39] ActionParsnip: the procedure seems reallylong and complicated [11:39] ohletmeinnowjesu: make it dial your mobile phone:) [11:39] kebomix: chip [11:39] indus: md5sum ./ [11:39] hello everybody [11:40] indus: yes sry :) [11:40] indus: then simply download the file and run: cat ./MD5SUM | grep [11:40] ActionParsnip: thats a good point [11:40] anybody knows aptitude/apt-get command to reinstall all packages ? [11:40] !clone | luciash [11:40] luciash: 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 [11:40] ActionParsnip: hmm ok thats it? the community docs list a lengthy procedure [11:40] indus: its really not [11:40] ActionParsnip: its just ive misplaced my rj11 cable and and am cable less till tomorrow [11:41] why ubuntu netbook remix is having size of more than 900 MB [11:41] kebomix: that procedure is technical and right now, i dont have the patience to help you with adding the patch [11:41] sorry [11:41] Can i use it for MIDs..?? [11:41] ActionParsnip: thx [11:41] any body plz reply [11:41] indus: okay , thanks any way :( [11:42] kebomix: ok wait let me reada a little more [11:42] why ubuntu netbook remix is having size of more than 900 MB.. Can i use it for MIDs..? [11:42] indus: e.g.: wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/release/ubuntu-9.04-dvd-i386.iso; wget http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/jaunty/release/MD5SUMS; md5sum ./ubuntu-9.04-dvd-i386.iso; cat ./MD5SUMS | grep dvd-i386 [11:42] indus: ok , tyt [11:42] kebomix: hmm i think the link ActionParsnip gave you is the best way to learn how [11:42] !patch [11:42] Patches are files describing the changes in code to achieve some results. There are a number of ways these can be produced, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/PatchSystems may provide some useful guidelines. [11:42] indus: then walk away, file will be downloaded and md5 checked when you get back [11:43] Cheran: i installed it on an acer aspire one from usb [11:43] ActionParsnip: why cant we have a gui md5 check like in windows? i never ask new users or even mention md5 checks,i burn and give them the cd myself,and of the 100 i have burned , just say 5 havent worked [11:44] indus: not sure, i dont use gui [11:44] indus: where is it ! [11:44] !patch | kebomix [11:44] kebomix: Patches are files describing the changes in code to achieve some results. There are a number of ways these can be produced, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/PatchSystems may provide some useful guidelines. [11:44] indus: well for something like that anyhoo [11:44] I booted from the linux mini cd, and it's asking me "boot: " What do I do? [11:44] indus: the CD has a self checker too which has an MD5SUM on it also [11:45] Oh, pressed enter. Now what? Install? [11:45] ActionParsnip: hmm now why didnt i see that [11:45] Surely not Install. How do I get a command line, then? [11:45] why ubuntu netbook remix is having size of more than 900 MB.. Can i use it for MIDs..? [11:45] ActionParsnip: ya i think i have seen that yes.Its in live cd correct? [11:45] kebomix: do you have the source file with you? [11:46] elad`: what's the linux mini cd [11:46] ubuntu [11:46] 9.04 [11:46] indus: on all [11:46] kebomix: unless you are a programmer or really tech savvy, i suggest you drop the idea and buy a recognised webcam [11:47] elad`: yea press install [11:47] Doesn't it install things to the CD? That's not what I want. I'm trying to write zeros to the HDD. [11:47] ok no idea then [11:48] elad`: you should be able to get a prompt from the first screen you load [11:48] indus: the code is here http://osdir.com/ml/linux.drivers.spca50x.devel/2008-05/msg00003.html [11:48] O:-) [11:48] I see Install, Command-line install, and Advance options. [11:48] kebomix: i know, but iam not a programmer :) [11:48] Neiter Install nor Command-line install got me to a command line. [11:49] elad`: under advanced options I believe [11:49] kebomix: or you need to find someone who can put that code into the driver, maybe send a personal mail to michael ,the writer of the gspca driver [11:49] Expert install, Command-line expert install and Rescue mode, ActionParsnip [11:49] indus : i will try that :D [11:49] kebomix: he might do it, or contact someone on ubuntu-devel [11:50] What is the proper owner and chmod settings for ~/.gnome2? [11:50] #ubuntu-devel [11:50] elad`: rescu mode sounds good. [11:50] kebomix: why dont you just get a nice new webcam? [11:50] elad`: considering you are wiping the drive you can't actually go wrong so just play, you will find it [11:50] Never mind, got to a shell from within the rescue mode, by perverting it a bit, maybe. [11:51] dd... what? [11:51] JoeM: owner is yourname:yourname [11:51] elad`: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ [11:51] sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda [11:51] indus: no , i just was testing this old cam , i want to make touch screen using this webcam , not to use it on video chat [11:51] elad`: you'll need sudo fdisk -l to find its name [11:51] actionparsnip wonder why mine is set to root... very odd, thanks (and thanks for all the help yesturday, after a lot of pain it all works minus a few more tweaks) [11:51] fdisk not found... [11:51] JoeM: because you have been running gui apps with sudo [11:52] JoeM: sudo gedit / sudo nautilus ring a bell? [11:52] kebomix: hmm touch screen? how ? [11:52] elad`: [11:52] sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda [11:52] If I edit my fstab with one drive mounting multiple times in multpile places, will that succesfully make the drive default mount to several places? [11:52] actionparsnip sudo gedit I use, I also did a copy from my old harddrive so that might have messed up some perms too [11:52] duckwars: hmm yes it works i suppose [11:52] JoeM: it s WRONG and you have got exactly why it is wrong [11:52] ActionParsnip: just checkin, for it to call my phone, can i use gnome-ppp and leave username & pass fields blank? [11:53] anyone knows which package is this from XShmPutImage === Ari-x is now known as Ari|pause [11:53] ohletmeinnowjesu: put any old stuff in, you dont need to authenticate for a connectioon [11:53] actionparsnip was easy enough to fix, thanks [11:53] hi all [11:53] dd acts the same whether I give it sda or sda9 (which doesn't exist)... [11:53] JoeM: you never use sudo gedit, you use gksudo gedit as it sets up the environment correctly [11:53] !hi [11:53] Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! [11:53] JoeM: sudo is ONLY for cli commands like apt-get, cp, mv, ln etc [11:54] other thing Im having a problem is is with SCIM... for some reason it doesn want to work (I use Korean/Chinese/English typing) [11:54] JoeM: use (always use) gksu gedit [11:54] actionparsnip that is good to know, thanks [11:54] JoeM: gksudo is for gui apps like gedit and nautilus [11:54] gksu gksu gksu [11:54] !info gksudo [11:54] Package gksudo does not exist in jaunty [11:54] !GKSU [11:54] If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [11:54] actionparsnip Ive been doing that for years... bet I have a lot of perms wrong, heh [11:54] indus: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4201589281466176805 [11:54] ubuntu 9.04 on DVD - is this beta? [11:54] JoeM: i bet you do === uncle|sam is now known as Uncle|Sam [11:55] kebomix: sorry google video is blocked at work [11:55] one question.. how i can limit in/out network speed in ubuntu?? [11:55] jillsmitt: its not beta [11:55] jillsmitt: 9.04 is official released, the dvd has more languages and other stuff on the disk [11:55] jillsmitt: !9.04 [11:55] indus: andy@fileserver:~$ gksu[tab] yields gksu gksudo gksu-properties [11:55] !9.04 [11:55] Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope) is the current release of Ubuntu. Download: http://releases.ubuntu.com/9.04/ - Release Info: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/904 - Please use !torrents [11:55] indus: then bookmark it till u be home :D [11:56] okay okay.. just i like ATI in ubuntu, and i have very bad stuffs in kubuntu... cant ubnderstand why [11:56] ActionParsnip: yes but i dont get what you mean [11:56] kebomix, dont paste that here [11:56] how i can limit in/out network speed in ubuntu?? i need limit bt subnets [11:57] bazhang: paste what ? [11:57] bazhang: whats wrong with that video? [11:57] indus: you put 'gksu gksu gksu' and confused me [11:57] this is ubuntu support only; indus kebomix such posting should be done in #ubuntu-offtopic [11:57] ActionParsnip: heh ya ok just was emphasizing [11:57] gksu [11:58] bazhang : k , sry [11:58] blapizdec [11:58] I changed my /etc/hosts file, but it seems ubuntu caches the ip's. How can i flush them? [11:59] indus: please do. I actually have a link to one guy i helped on launchpad with the same thing: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/azureus/+question/72151 [11:59] indus: i keep it for idiots who say "sudo is fine for gui" etc [12:00] Im not even sure what to search for on this... when I type things like ~ I have to hit the key then hit space, apostrophy doesnt even work, but some some odd things like make an m (in I(apos)m) have a tick mark over it [12:00] ActionParsnip: i still can be called one , cos i still use sudo [12:01] tvburger : restart firefox [12:01] indus: read that link, you'll see hat you will get, as well as you just saw joeM with the same thiing [12:01] I'm working in a shell. [12:01] ActionParsnip: yes i know, iam starting to remember to use gksu now,but i do remember always to say it here [12:01] tvburger : install nscd ( sudo aptitude install nscd ) and then use sudo /etc/init.d/nscd restart [12:01] !paste [12:01] pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic [12:02] indus: thats good, not helping people break there systems is cool [12:02] tvburger : first try restarting networking /etc/init.d/networking restart [12:02] done that. doesn't work either. [12:02] tvburger : that should normally fix it [12:03] tvburger: if you nslookup does it resolve to the right ip? [12:03] ActionParsnip: i did nt understand the question on launchpad clearly though [12:03] It's a live webserver, so I prefer doing it without shutting down the whole network... [12:03] Hi all, does anyone know hot to play a sounf when plugging or unplugging a usb device? thanks [12:03] Hello I installed syslog-ng and I have a D-link 635 that I have enabled that it will send the logs to a syslog server. How can I see that the server is receiving data ? [12:03] indus: basically vuze wouldnt run: if you scroll down you'll see his files were owned by root due to bad sudo use, so i chowned his files back to him and it was fine [12:04] hi! is there any way of launching firefox (and its addons through "chrome://" command line) with a custom icon than the standard one? or maybe a good place to get an answer for this =) [12:04] It seems that the IP is resolved remotely. This was the case. So some program still has a record of it and caches it (my guess). But I've just added it to /etc/hosts which comes first in /etc/nsswitch.conf . [12:04] Probably I need the DNS cacher to be flushed. [12:04] vinicius: you can edit the .desktop file in /usr/share/applications to specify your own icon [12:05] ActionParsnip:i think i should do a fresh install and start using gksu now to see if something changes,i bet flash will work better (dont know why i feel that) [12:05] What seems weird... because /etc/hosts comes first. And I've restarted the nscd service... [12:05] tvburger: yeah it should [12:05] tvburger: hosts overrides all [12:06] Ofcourse nslookup uses the name server. [12:06] ActionParsnip: hmm i see that many of his hidden files are owned by root [12:06] Thus nslookup will always give the wrong IP. That's fine. [12:06] indus: exactly [12:06] tvburger: how about ping? [12:06] hey guys i am trying to connect to a network printer using cups but the printer is requesting for ID and Password. How can I tell cups to send that to the printer?? [12:06] But the programs local on the machine should use as configured in nsswitch. [12:06] LOL! [12:07] cantoma: is the printer attatched to a windows pc? [12:07] the host program either doesnot care about the nsswitch stuff! [12:07] ActionParsnip, i have no idea [12:07] ActionParsnip: i think this can be a wishlist or feature for 9.10, not to allow sudo on graphical, like not to allow rm -rf on the root [12:07] ActionParsnip, i know it is in my cups list [12:07] Actually ping does the right thing (get the IP from /etc/hosts) [12:07] ActionParsnip, but will this icon be the same on the gnome-panel? [12:08] OK, I booted from a complete live-cd. fdisk -l gives me nothing. [12:08] vinicius: yes, you just need to restart x and it will apply. That is the standard .desktop for all users to run firefox so you can change it and it will affect them all [12:08] elad`: its sudo fdisk -l === eXtra_Rice|wAla is now known as jilbert [12:08] elad`: that will show available disks and partitions [12:09] cantoma: if its shared on a windows based pc you will need to create a user on the windows side to authorise use [12:09] ActionParsnip, what i want to do is to launch a firefox extension only, but with a different icon, so its firefox too, understand? [12:09] In /dev/, I have sda. No sda[num]. Is that guaranteed to be the HDD? [12:09] ActionParsnip, this is what is says: The printer's state message is: 'fatal: Incorrect ID or Password. Specify the correct ID and Password.: 15513' [12:10] :q! [12:10] oops... sorry [12:10] hi, how could I disable startup of tomcat in my ubuntu server? [12:10] vinicius: oh like launch firefox but autolaunch chatzilla for example [12:10] ActionParsnip: i can login in any windows machine here (using an id and password) and use that printer. [12:11] ActionParsnip: iam beginning to think what a huge mess my system is probably in,works fine , but you think some issues with sound etc could be related to this ? [12:11] System->Administration-> Language Support is just a gui for installing SCIM right? [12:11] ActionParsnip, yes... [12:11] JoeM: no its not [12:11] ActionParsnip, using "chrome://" on command line [12:11] When dd-ing from /dev/zero, the operation would never stop - right/wrong? [12:11] ActionParsnip, im creating a new .desktop file [12:11] hello [12:11] ActionParsnip, so i know the id and password but i don't know how to send it using my linux pv [12:11] pc [12:12] JoeM: it install the necessary language packs, scim is already installed i think and its under system>preferences [12:12] indus oh... then what is it for, input or just display? [12:12] vinicius: then just add the thing as an arg: e.g. firefox irc://irc.freenode.net [12:12] indus ah ok, so it just to get the language packs for scim? [12:12] ActionParsnip, yes... =) [12:13] Hi I am new to the IRC [12:13] JoeM: yeah either with scim or with the regular keyboard selector ,and for typing in open office etc all those things, also to change the desktop default language , basically all [12:13] cantoma: how about if you smb:// then right click the printer and click connect (or similar) [12:13] ActionParsnip, well... that doesnt change the icon on gnome-panel [12:13] ActionParsnip, you said i need to restart X for it to work, right? [12:13] indus Im trying to get back ability to type Korean and Chinese again, as well as fix this irritating issue with some keys not working properly [12:13] JoeM: i dont use scim,dont know how to. i just use keyboard switcher to change language,but scim gives a lot of options [12:14] vinicius: it should just add itself automagically, have a check. If not then restart x [12:14] JoeM, scim needs to be installed and configured [12:14] indus I used it before I build the new system, SCIM support was one of the few things that didnt seem to migrate properly [12:14] ActionParsnip, ok... ill restart [12:14] ActionParsnip, thanks [12:14] ActionParsnip, how can i find what should be? [12:15] magic lamp effect from compiz just rocks [12:15] goodbye macosx [12:15] cantoma: its the whatever you connect to to print, so it will be an ip or a netbios name, look at your windows clients [12:16] how can i create raw backups using dd of usb with linux installed in them to my system harddisk? [12:17] Hello, how to I set my terminal language to USA? [12:17] ActionParsnip: something like IP_138.250.110.40 [12:18] For my vnc server to run I need to have the desktop going, so if I reboot from a foreign computer I can't vnc in... I've tried to start the desktop by startx and running sudo /etc/init.d/gdm on the vnc server but I still can't vnc in. The only solution seems to log in on the physical computer... [12:18] hello there people [12:19] hi [12:19] can anyone tell me why my local area network is lagging after upgrading to 9.04 [12:19] ? [12:19] Hello, how to I set my terminal language to USA? [12:19] working with ssh is like working in hell [12:19] seanj: as in US English? [12:20] yes lstarnes [12:20] hett: How would you know? Have you been there? [12:20] It's set to Canadian French but I don't use a french keyboard. [12:20] I figured out how to do it in GNOME but not in the real terminal [12:20] jpds: heh :) yep, but I'm feeling like I don't want to be there and work with that lag [12:20] hett: Anyway, try running 'mtr google.com' and see where it's lagging. [12:21] hmm, jpds, I've problems with my local ubuntu server [12:21] as I understand [12:21] ok, here's my case: i got fried my SATA disk electronics but i have no budget to send it to data recovery now... there were some symlinked dirs on the disk like /usr/share or /var... i have copied some of the missing dirs now from my laptop (same distro) so i have working linux desktop again but there are still some problems/not fully functional apps... how would you do it to recover missing files of installed apps if you don't know exactly which ones ? [12:21] Hey guys, What does the "." before freemind in the error "STDOUT: User patterns file /home/ryan/.freemind/patterns.xml not found." mean? [12:21] hett: Hmm, not sure if mtr'ing it's IP would help. [12:21] Ryan1: It's a hidden folder. [12:22] jpds, avarage ping is 15-25 ms [12:22] seanj: you could try the instructions in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LocaleConf [12:22] Ryan1: You can view them in a directory by doing: ls -A /home/ryan [12:22] jpds: Things is the file "patterns.xml" exists in /home/ryan/Desktop/Freemind/patterns.xml" [12:22] indus ok, that worked... any idea why my keyboard is missing up on the ~ key, apostrphy/qoute key and a few others? Its really hard to explain what its doing so I cant google for it [12:22] thanks lstarnes. [12:22] anyone? [12:23] seanj: you could also try editing /etc/environment [12:23] Ryan1: So, try: cp ~/Freemind/patternx.xml ~/.freemind/patterns.xml [12:23] indus tried changing the layout, all of them did the same thing, right now its on generic 105 key and us_intl (its really a Logitech MX 5500, Korean) [12:23] lstarnes: okay, I'll try that. Thanks. [12:23] seanj: also, check the enironment variables in the output of locale [12:23] jpds: cp? [12:24] hej, can someone tell me how you call that function, search by typing or whatever, when for example in Nautilus I enter "ne" to jump to the folder "new folder"? [12:24] lstarnes: en_CA.UTF-8 [12:24] !cp | Ryan [12:24] Sorry, I don't know anything about cp [12:24] ciaooooooo ^^ [12:24] I am looking for an "official" name so I can search for it, since it doesn't really work since 8.04 [12:24] Ryan1: cp = copy [12:24] Ryan1: Do that in the terminal, it means copy. [12:24] Ryan1: it's the command line utility for copying files [12:24] thanks [12:25] uh :-/ [12:25] When dd-ing from /dev/zero, the operation would never stop - right/wrong? [12:26] jpds: do I have to be in a specific directory to execute the command or must I specify the explicit address - ie. /home/.... [12:26] elad`: unless you stop dd using ctrl+C or another control code or signal [12:26] Ryan1: No, you can do it anywhere. [12:26] Ryan1: it can be relative to the current directory [12:26] is there a utility/way to check what files were (accidentaly) deleted out of a package after installation ? [12:26] So how would I know when all of my hdd is full of zeros? [12:26] Ryan1: ~ is always expanded to mean your home directory [12:26] Ryan1: the ~ bit means your home directory (/home/ryan/). [12:27] so i would know what packages need to be reinstalled [12:27] * neo8848 has joined NOTE: he is a newbie [12:27] ok thanks [12:27] luciash, have you tried apt-get -f install [12:27] can anyone help me creating raw backup of a memory card attached to my system using a card reader? I want to make its backup to a file on my system... [12:28] Also, anyone know to change monitor refresh rate? My monitor can do 85 hz but Ubuntu only lets me go up to 60 hz. [12:28] moymoy: nope, does it install all packages ? [12:28] error404notfound: use dd [12:28] luciash: it installs all missing dependencies (or tries to) [12:28] moymoy, yes but what would be input file? [12:28] moymoy: i have limited space now when the disk is gone so i would prefer to download and reinstall only what is necessary [12:29] error404notfound: the memory card's device node [12:29] moymoy: oh, ok, i will give it a try if it helps missing files (not dependent packages only) [12:29] lstarnes, how can i figure that out? using lsusb it tells me: "us 005 Device 002: ID 058f:6362 Alcor Micro Corp. Hi-Speed 21-in-1 Flash Card Reader/Writer (Internal/External)" [12:30] error404notfound: dd if=/dev/whatever of=~/backup.dd [12:30] moymoy, difficult is figuring out that /dev/wahetever part [12:30] error404notfound: hmm.. try sudo blkid [12:31] btw can i mount dd created images? [12:31] yup [12:32] i think i have messed up my boot loader, is there a way i can repair/reinstall it? [12:32] error404notfound: assuming that they have the corret filesystem structure, yes [12:32] *correct [12:32] jpds: Thanks it worked - no error message. Could it be that he hidden folder /.freemind is created when the jar file is exectuted. Because I have only extracted Freemind to the desktop, and have not run any "install" file [12:32] !grub | steve1 [12:32] steve1: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager.

[12:57] indus: in file permissions, "user" is the user that owns the file, "group" is the group that owns the file, and "others" are users who don't own the file and aren't in the group that owns it [12:57] Pici, program similar to virtual box but lightweighted [12:57] petsounds, I will have the bot PM you the instructions.

[12:59] indus: most applications and their shared data need to be readable or executable by everyone, not just root, which usually owns those files [13:00] Pici, i want good virtualization software whose package size is small [13:01] !virtual | papul here are your choices [13:01] papul here are your choices: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications [13:02] !virtualbox [13:02] virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer.

[13:03] neo8848, certainly [13:03] neo8848, there is every way [13:03] ntfs partition [13:03] neo8848: yep [13:04] neo8848: sure, set aside a space to use and format it ntfs, both OSes can read and write to ntfs [13:04] and it will have no problems with the ntfs acl whatever-thingy? [13:04] !dual | neo8848 [13:04] Sorry, I don't know anything about dual [13:04] @ActionParsnip: no special actions required? [13:04] neo8848: alternatively just read and write to the windows NTFS from ubuntu without a special partion, both ways are fine [13:04] neo8848: you can also mount your windows ntfs partitions, that's what i do, i can even access my windows desktop from ubuntu [13:04] neo8848: you'll need ntfs-3g to get write access [13:05] *windows desktop *folder* [13:05] !ntfs-3g [13:05] ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions.

I like some xfce apps.. and some gnome apps.. so i always have a mixture of all the desktops/apps on my systems anyway. :) [13:07] how do I disalble this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ComposeKey [13:07] Nameless_au: if it works.. i woldent mess with it or worry about having the extra stuff installed.

[13:08] alright, thanks guys... i'll do some reading for now [13:08] xfce with like gedit is all i had going lol [13:08] Nameless_au: i found mixing kde4+compiz = real flakey. but i dont use kde4 any more. so have fun. [13:08] Dr_Willis: i'd go with super flakey === Nathan is now known as Guest59619 [13:08] Does anybody have a clue what JoeM is talking about? He wants to disable unicode I think. [13:09] Dr_Willis: what do u use? [13:09] ActionParsnip: i was being nice.. since i havent used it in ages, [13:09] Dr_Willis: i started on kde, then just fell out of love with it [13:09] Nameless_au: i stick with gnome normally these days. [13:09] hi I installed PAM with my flash drive, but strangely unlocking the screen works only from time to time please help me I'm really helpless cause I don't know what to do after weeks of googling - I thought it may be related to an /dev/sdb1 is not removable error but it seems like it's something else [13:09] badeagle I want to disable that ComposeKey crap, I have no idea why it was turned on and all my searchs for turning it off talk about configuring it [13:09] je deteste le gnome, but each to their own [13:09] wait, just one more question, do i already have this ntfs-3g installed by default, or do i have to apt-get? [13:09] Nameless_au: and i tend to disable 90% of the compiz features.. (or all of them on some machines) [13:10] I find kde4 very unuseable last i tried it (last month) [13:10] Nameless_au: me too, its too concerned with what i'm doing rather than just getting on with it [13:10] JoeM, it'll be a setting in xorg.conf... I've messed with xorg.conf a lot so i'll look into it. [13:10] neo8848: try apt-getting it, if you have iit, it will tell you [13:10] badeagle thats the first place I looked, saw nothing that stood out [13:10] neo8848: if not, you'll pull it down [13:11] hello everyone [13:11] !hi | tritonx [13:11] tritonx: Hi!

[13:16] any idea if I could just copey an actual installation onto a new HD/array and boot from that to keep my already setup server ?? [13:17] JoeM: http://www.ewp.rpi.edu/hartford/webgen/sysdocs/C/solaris_9/SUNWabe/ADVOSUG/p37.html seems to be on the right track [13:17] strep_: have you configured video drivers? [13:17] tritonx: you'd need partimage or dd [13:17] strep_: you mean full screen 'flash' videos ? [13:17] tritonx: you can TAR the entire system from a liveCD [13:17] dd will do ? [13:17] tritonx: i've not done it that way [13:17] I,ll sure try it [13:17] tritonx: makes sense [13:18] but I'll be coming from a AMD64 install to probably an intel install. .... :/ [13:18] ActionParsnip, i don't know, Dr_Willis i mean full screan streaming like dailymotion or else [13:18] tritonx: the dd path seems like a nightmare .. especially with all the partition resizing and stuff.. i'm assuming you're upgrading to more storage [13:18] screen* [13:18] moymoy: yeah more storage hopefully [13:18] tritonx: just plug the disk in [13:19] ActionParsnip, where can i see i ve configured or not this drivers? [13:19] strep_: what is the output of: lspci | grep -i vga [13:19] wondering if I'd put the system on a normal array then have files on a raid1 [13:19] the kernel will see different hardware and load the correct modules accordingly [13:19] hey guys n gals! when i try to "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" i only get to the point where i can change keyboard and then it stops and saves. My /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is empty when i look .. ? What's the problem? :) [13:19] tritonx: you could populate one drive then tell the controller to replicate the data [13:20] I've had HD error recently, even though the SMART thing seems ok, the system would hang for no reason [13:20] kristian_: try "sudo X -configure" then copy the file it makes from your ~/ dir to /etc/X11/ [13:20] ActionParsnip, its---> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1) [13:20] tritonx: get the test app from the drive manufacturers site (or use the ultimatebootcd which has many of the main drive manufacturers on) and test the device [13:20] badeagle: will try now :) [13:21] action, good idea [13:21] guys, how can I use PAM withouht exeptions so that I can use my flash drive to lock and unlock the screen? [13:21] strep_: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 [13:21] strep_: then restart the x server, job done [13:21] strep_: are you using jaunty? [13:22] strep_: if you are unsure run: lsb_release -c [13:22] yes im sure im using jaunty [13:22] badeagle: it just says "server is already active for display 0" but no file pops up, hmm .. [13:22] strep_: then the 173 package will give you full hardware accelleration :) [13:22] strep_: its also why nvidia rock in linux :) [13:23] anyone tried Ultimate Boot CD 5 beta ?, is it ok or should I stick with 4,1 ? [13:23] ActionParsnip, that sounds nice :] [13:23] but installation doesnt work [13:23] when i type the command u told me [13:23] badeagle: and fatal server error .. damn [13:23] (sudo apt-get install...) [13:24] it says : E: L'opération install-glx-173 n'est pas valable [13:24] kristian_, go to a new terminal (CTRL+ALT+F1) and type "cd /" , "./etc/init.d/gdm stop", "sudo X -configure", then look for the file in your home directory and copy it over /etc/X11/xorg.conf [13:24] strep_: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-173 [13:24] oh ok ok i try this ty [13:24] :] [13:24] er, "sudo ./etc/init.d/gdm stop" [13:25] badeagle: if you delete the first . you can run it from and pwd [13:25] badeagle: and you don't then need 'cd /' [13:25] badeagle: the command will also need sudo [13:25] 大家好！ [13:25] ActionParsnip: ah, k, thx [13:25] you are idiota hahahaa [13:26] Ok, got a slightly off-topic question that I don't know where else to ask: if someone is sending me an email saying they are in hawaii, and the IP tracks back to california, am I being BSd or is that standard? [13:26] hi again I have firefox 3.5 working [13:26] ./firefox did it [13:26] anonbadger: thats because the archive had the binary in [13:27] I also apt-get remove'd firefox [13:27] tbsn1rd: IPs can't always be definitively traced back to a particular location [13:27] badeagle: it says the exact same thing? [13:27] tbsn1rd: their mail server might be in California [13:27] Thanks ActionParsnip [13:27] anonbadger: you will find some of your addons won't work til the devs get up to speed [13:27] seeya [13:27] ah [13:27] ok, he uses gmail [13:27] so I guess that's possible then [13:28] thanks [13:28] hello [13:28] yellow [13:29] !hi | allan_ [13:29] allan_: Hi!

I'm trying to create a custom ubuntu CD .. How can I mirror a repo with all updates [13:37] Recently upgraded firefox to 3.5 by following instructions at mozilla's site. Now I don't have an icon on any FF shortcuts.... Is there a way to force the system to recognize it and give it the right icon?/?? [13:37] ActionParsnip: it's not the hardware you pay for per say, (generally it's good hw) but you pay for the OS and apps. wich in turn makes it kinda like paying for hardware... [13:37] ok... since 8.10 gnome session preferences dont want to work, how can I set a couple commands to run at login? [13:38] ActionParsnip: well mac it's maybe expensive ... but if you tried once u'll love it :D [13:38] hi: i have a mac formatted external hard drive that ubuntu can only read, not write to. Is there a way i can transfer a file to it? [13:38] juiCeppe: i only use my system for chatting and browsiing, any system can do that so why shell out for a mac.. [13:38] also mac hardware generally run good in linux [13:39] he sais no trolling ... [13:39] :P [13:39] =( [13:39] robos: if you run the command: mount does it say the partiition is mounted rw? [13:39] robos do us still have a mac? [13:39] i'm just talking from a linux perspective [13:39] i still have the mac [13:39] great hardware can't say anything else [13:39] rski: that always makes me laugh, buy a mac then put linux on it, hilarious [13:39] Hi all. When I do this: awk '{print $2 }' I can print the contents of the second field of the record. Now, if this contents is a word, how can I print just the first letter of it? [13:40] actually ty anyways. To early to dork with it :-) [13:40] ActionParsnip: i've done that :) [13:40] ActionParsnip: stupid mac user answer because mac looks better :D [13:40] juiCeppe: who cares about looks. [13:40] i care about looks! [13:40] Night_Elf: using awak you can do something like awk '{print $2}' |awk -F" " '{print $1}' [13:40] Is there an IRC channel for Ubuntu Netbook Remix? [13:40] http://wiki.quakeworld.nu/images/Chassi.JPG [13:40] though a bit hacky [13:40] my AWESOME pc :D [13:40] tdn: #ubuntu-mobile [13:40] Which netbook would you recommend for use with Ubuntu? [13:40] jpds, ok. Thanks. [13:41] oh, first letter [13:41] robos: I will try it. Hacky or not, if it works it works :) [13:41] tdn: probablty one that has ubuntu preinstalled =) [13:41] I have a machine running mythbuntu 7.10... Now that the RocketRaid 1740 card is recognized by the kernel, I wanted to upgrade (desperately needed!) to jaunty server (non-mythbuntu). Jaunty indeed recognizes the drives on the card, but it does not recognize that it is a single RAID array. Do I have to do something special to make it use the array as configured? [13:41] tdn: acer aspire one works 100% out of the box with jaunty netbook remix [13:41] rski, does such one exist? [13:41] tdn: yes [13:41] awk '{print $2}' |sed 's/\(\w\).*/\1/' [13:41] or something close [13:41] ActionParsnip, hmm... Ok. Do you have one? Is it good? [13:41] rski, which one? I haven't been able to find any. [13:41] tdn: it does what it says on the tin [13:41] rski: i'd write aXXo on there too [13:42] ActionParnip: i care about look...but also because of the useability [13:42] badeagle: but that's not a Quakeworld player :( [13:42] was wondering just a thought but coming from a winblows world is there anything to speed up ubuntu like there is in winblows not that it needs it. I mean are there any needless running processes running I should shut off or something? [13:42] ActionParsnip, on the tin? [13:42] badeagle: also i't be pretty hard to get axxo here to sign it :) [13:42] juiCeppe: how about a 50cc engine in a ferrari body? [13:42] rski: omg they're actually signatures huh... cool [13:42] tdn: its a netbook, it does what netbooks do [13:42] badeagle: ah yea :P [13:42] L3dPlatedLinux: if it aint broke, dont fix it ;) [13:43] hateball, right on lol [13:43] by legendary players suchs as paradoks and razor, interceptor ! [13:43] L3dPlatedLinux: at least not when you're new... better solve problems as (if) you get them ;) [13:43] robos: that way of awk piping into another awk, worked. Got the first letters of some thousands of entries. :) [13:45] hi, how to install ubuntu desktop, and uninstall xubuntu desktop? [13:45] ok with that said on my wifes lappy i was wondering it there any reason the atheros wifi drive wouldnt work normally but only when dual booted with windows it does? [13:45] marcules: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop && sudo apt-get remove xubunt-desktop probably [13:45] People just need to stop trying other DEs and stick with Gnome. [13:45] matthijs, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will get ubuntu, sudo apt-get remove xubuntu-desktop [13:45] matthijs: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop [13:45] driver * [13:46] Halitech, ok, first install then uninstall? === hfsdo_ is now known as hfsdo [13:46] ActionParsnip, thanks also [13:46] er wrong nick. [13:46] gnome rocks ;) [13:46] rski, heh :) [13:46] Halitech: xubuntu-desktop is a metapackage and won't uninstall anything but the metpackage (not its components) [13:46] matthijs, yes, check here for getting pure gnome http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome [13:46] L3dPlatedLinux: does that imply you boot windows first, then reboot to linux? [13:46] I am using Gnome. How do I change the font size of my toolbar? Most specifically the clock [13:46] any way to get jaunty to recognize existing fake-ish raid arrays on a RocketRaid 1740? [13:46] ActionParsnip, ok. Are you happy with yours? [13:46] tdn: yeah its fine [13:46] Halitech, pure gnome? [13:47] ActionParsnip, thought of that after I posted so gave him the link to psychocats page :) [13:47] ActionParsnip, ok. [13:47] what? [13:47] badeagle: IT WORKED! thx. the reason i didn't work first time was that i am using fluxbox without gdm, there x wasn't shutdowm while typing "x -configure". [13:47] ActionParsnip, howcan i uninstall xubuntu desktop then? [13:47] matthijs, the second command will remove all traces of xubuntu [13:47] Halitech, sure? since ActionParsnip said something else [13:47] badeagle: therefore* [13:47] kristian_, yup, you're welcome. [13:47] Night_Elf: that's because i misread your question. Use my sed example [13:48] matthijs, if you go to the link I gave you and run the second command it will remove all the xubuntu apps [13:48] Halitech, i see it now yes, thank you [13:48] Halitech, so first install ubuntu dekstop, and then run that scond command? [13:48] matthijs, yes [13:48] matthijs: you'll need to remove the xfce stuf fi guess [13:48] Halitech, many thanks [13:49] ActionParsnip, are u sure? [13:49] ActionParsnip, prior to ubuntu desktop install? [13:49] matthijs: dpkg -l | grep xfc [13:49] matthijs, you don't have to remove the xubuntu stuff but you can if you want, otherwise you can select which desktop you want when you start up [13:50] Halitech, ah ok [13:50] matthijs: i'd do it after but if you got space then i'd just leave it on [13:50] ActionParsnip, ok [13:50] hateball, nope , ok when I installed 904 ubuntu on it and had it be the only os on there it worked till i updated and did a reboot and after that I couldnt get it to work for the longest time. Now only after I put windblows back on and then dual booted ubuntu it works any ideas why cause if it were up to me I wouldnt have windows(aka sucks alot) on there at all [13:50] Anyone knows why could the NFS client change the owner of the directory which is used to mount a remote directory? [13:51] L3dPlatedLinux: cant say I do. the only thing I could think of was some software killswitch or something [13:51] hi how do i get lxde for ubuntu 9?

[14:10] sleepy_cat: avidemux; ffmpeg; memcoder ? any of those will be able to do it [14:10] kltrg: "sudo ifconfig -a" [14:10] kltrg: ifconfig [14:10] Iversen: there is clamav [14:11] !av | Iversen [14:11] Iversen: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 [14:11] Iversen: all OSs can get viri [14:11] so.. uhh.. anyone have any tips on how to upgrade over an existing RAID array? [14:11] erUSUL: no i want to compress using RLE8bit [14:11] tommck: in what way ? [14:11] ActionParsnip yes - but thats faulted :( [14:11] oskar-, ikonia, Thanks [14:11] sleepy_cat: avi is only a container... what codec are you using ? [14:11] ActionParsnip since i got the virus from a linux game, not a windows file or application [14:11] Iversen: define "faulted" [14:12] ikonia: I asked a couple times, but got lost in the shuffle.. I am running raid on a RocketRaid 1740. Support was added to the kernel recently.. [14:12] Is there a gui way of changing user password in Xubuntu Jaunty? [14:12] actually i was using Avidemux only.. i made 13 frames from 139 and then tried to append one to another.. it did work .. but not quiet... because it differs from RLE8bit [14:12] just installed 64 bit version of ubuntu 9.04 on my new machine. it boots successful, but once the desktop is loaded it freezes randomly after 5-10 sec.. i believe it is a graphics driver issue, but i cannot install the nvidia drivers [14:12] tommck: ok - so what's the problem ? [14:12] ikonia: when I run the installer, it does indeed recognize those drives... but it doesn't recognize the existing raid-5 setup... [14:12] Iversen, I find it hard to believe a game thats packaged in the repos and has been approved by ubuntu would give you a virus [14:13] I use a lenovo R500 in Hungaian Language. On the keybord the spec. Hungarian characters does not work, they type different characters. [14:13] tommck: how can you have been using raid on it before if there has only just been support added [14:13] where are startup programs defined in ubuntu server? [14:13] !keyboard | ecser [14:13] ecser: To switch your keyboard layout on GNOME: System -> Preferences -> Keyboard (GNOME) - KDE: K -> System Settings -> Regional & Language -> Keyboard Layout (KDE) - Xfce: see https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts [14:13] ian__:apps>system>user n groups [14:13] ActionParsnip I defined it now : http://lmgtfy.com/?q=define%3Afaulted [14:13] since i cannot access log files i have no way of checking what is causing the freeze [14:13] ikonia: drivers from HighPoint [14:14] DaseEi, thanks I'll look into that. [14:14] tommck: this is fakeraid, so the devices are not going to be portable across hardware kernel modules [14:14] albech : you could boot into safe mode (or try ctrl-alt F1) [14:14] Iversen: welcome to ignore. Don't be so insolent. The websearch also talks about rocks. you couldv'e simply explained what it means to you. I could do that with a billion users ere but choice not to be a troll. good luck [14:14] ikonia: so... I have to backup and restore the data ever time? That doesn't make much sense to me. [14:15] I can go to root by typing "sudo bash" . How can I again come back to normal user priviledges ? [14:15] ikonia: every time before, I did have to rebuild the module, but now that it's in the kernel, I expected that would go away [14:15] close the window [14:15] Anirban1987: its advised to use: sudo -i === steven is now known as dreki [14:15] yay, i should auto connect to the right channels now [14:15] DasEi, i have a new theory that it might be the network card causing this.. is there a way to disable it at boot? [14:16] Anirban1987: close the shell, with exit or by pressing ctrl+d [14:16] Anirban1987: you can then simply type: exit and you will be normal user again [14:16] albech : comment it in /etc/network/interfaces [14:16] Anirban1987: exit [14:16] ActionParsnip : No, it is not going back to anirban@ubuntu from root@ubuntu by typing "sudo -i" !!! === sean is now known as Guest93855 [14:17] Anirban1987: sudo -i gets you to an elevated shell, not out [14:17] Anirban1987: of course not. "sudo -i" ist for getting root [14:17] !sudo | Anirban1987 [14:17] Anirban1987: 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) [14:17] ikonia: so, what's different between the new kernels and the old? I thought the "same" (using the term lightly) code would be in the kernel now... am I missing something? [14:17] Hello , i would like to download file using wget command , but someting strange ... when i open mozilla and past this link (pdf document from the UN website into the url place the download start . file = 17 mb) but when i using wget its not working any ideas? [14:18] this is the link : http://daccessdds.un.org/doc/UNDOC/GEN/NR0/732/57/IMG/NR073257.pdf [14:18] shay27m: got the link ? [14:18] a [14:18] Anirban1987: you can use su to get out of the root shell [14:18] DasEi : Not working ( -bash: !sudo: event not found ) [14:18] shay27m: it may be that they don't let you download not using a browser, wget isn't a browser, therefore it may be denied [14:18] shay27m: set the correct referrer [14:19] shay27m: what does "not working" mean? [14:19] StarLionIsaac: does it possible to tell wget to act like browser ? [14:19] ActionParsnip : Thanks, it worked. [14:19] DasEi, the interface doesnt appear in the interface file when booting safemode to a command line [14:19] Anirban1987: easiest way is to close the terminal window [14:19] shay27m: it's comming down, any FW or no writepermission in that folder ? [14:19] Anirban1987: please use the correct way and you will et in less of a mess [14:19] shay27m: not that I know of, but I believe there's a firefox plugin for it someplace [14:19] ActionParsnip, Anirban1987: just type 'exit' to get out of sudo -i, su username leaves you still inside the root shell process. [14:20] DasEi: the file should be 17 mb pdf document . if you download with wget you get html file of few bites.. [14:20] albech: so check nm-applet [14:20] Pici: gotcha [14:20] DasEi: the file should be 17 mb pdf document . if you download with wget you get html file of few bytes [14:20] Pici: was an educated guess tbh === evonise`emp is now known as matthijs [14:22] DasEi, can i prevent nm-applet from being started at boot, so i can trouble shot it? [14:22] ikonia: still there? [14:22] albech: sudo apt-get install bum; gksudo bum [14:22] shay27m: :right a few kb pdf, not readable [14:22] shay27m: set referer (--referer=url) and user agent (-U ...) and the web server will not recognize the difference between wget and a browser for direct downloads [14:23] albech: make a note of whee nm-applet appears and take it out, save settings and restart [14:23] albech: you can then undo the settings using your notes to get it back if you wish === janne is now known as Skiessi [14:24] hi, i just removed xubuntu, and installed ubuntu desktop, and now it gives me an error in dutch, and starts in safe mode, what is wrong? [14:24] hi [14:24] would it be better to install kubuntu64 rather than 32? [14:24] is there a final version of Firefox 3.5 available for ubuntu ? [14:24] shit [14:24] so many people here [14:25] Can anyone else explain to me why the new kernel support for the RocketRaid 1740 doesn't recognize an existing RAID-5 array defined with the open source drivers in the past? [14:25] ninja-77: Please mind your language here. [14:25] asdzxc: Yes, the firefox-3.5 package. [14:25] sorry [14:25] Pici: i installed it but it's not final [14:25] asdzxc: In Jaunty? It is now. [14:25] Pici it is called Shiretoko [14:26] Pici: I don't have a firefox-3.5 package on my intrepid box's lists, am I missing a repo for that? [14:26] Pici where can i find my ubuntu version ? [14:26] asdzxc: Thats the final version. It will not be branded 'Firefox' in Jaunty. [14:26] asdzxc: lsb_release -a [14:26] tommck: suggestion: it does not seem to be a real raid controller, so the raid format depends too much on the drivers [14:26] 9.04 [14:26] hello i got windows xp on partition and ubuntu on 2nd parition ,i format the xp but ubuntu seems affect it doesn't appear on boot although i put the /boot on a parition alone! how i can resume my ubuntu? thx [14:26] Pici it is called 'Preview browser' [14:26] busy chan [14:26] Pici don't yhink it's final [14:27] albech: right click on it , select the one, delete it [14:27] asdzxc: Its the final version, I assure you. I believe there is a bug filed for it saying that it is the preview edition in its about box. [14:27] folks, whats the best option these days for GUI management of a ubuntu server? (managing samba shares, mail server stuff, etc) ? [14:27] shay27m: it's a dead link, if I call it in browser, so server-sided problem [14:27] Pici how can i make it look like a firefox in menu ? [14:28] oskar-: interesting. So, the new kernel stuff would have chosen a different way to represent the RAID from the open source drivers written by HighPoint? [14:28] asdzxc: install normal firefox, and borrow the icon from that [14:28] frink_: Depends on if you're managing *one* or *multiple* boxes at once. I've always found Webmin (webmin.sourceforge.net) to be a great tool when dealing with multiple server boxes (and it works w/ other linuxes as well) [14:29] frink_: you can manage samba shares via ssh easily with /etc/samba/smb.conf [14:29] frink_: oops, forgot to mention that Webmin is a browser-based utility. GUI, yes, but ... well, you get the idea. :) [14:29] frink_: not sure about mail servers. This may help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MailServer [14:29] frink_, there is also ebox [14:29] hello i got windows xp on partition and ubuntu on 2nd parition ,i format the xp but ubuntu seems affect it doesn't appear on boot although i put the /boot on a parition alone! how i can resume my ubuntu? thx [14:29] tommck: yes, possible... if you see the single drives, you can perhaps fit them together with device-mapper and maybe get it compatible. but i have no clue how ;) [14:29] !webmin | abb [14:29] abb: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. [14:29] tommck: where did you defined the raid in the cards bios ? or with linux's mdadm ? [14:30] ActionParsnip: oops, thanks. my mistake! [14:30] StarLionIsaac: how can i change icon ? and rename it ? [14:30] erUSUL: in the BIOS [14:31] I am happy to use ssh but other people would like a gui thing, I was thinking webmin. [14:31] Halitech: ebox - oh, I'll look at that. [14:31] asdzxc: in the menu, you need to use the menu editor to change things like that, it should be either in Other on the main menu, or in the Preferences menu === janne is now known as Skiessi [14:31] frink_, its a browser app like webmin but is supported [14:32] StarLionIsaac: got it, thnx [14:32] tommck: linux does not support the fakeraid (via dmraid) that card implements... you have to either use the vendor driver or switch to linux driver + linux software raid [14:32] frink_: it doesnt work well with ubuntu / debian, ebox is another option [14:33] frink_: i recommend ssh as its quick and secure [14:33] @everyone : i'm using the ntfs-3g now... works well, thanks but i did find out that it's not part of the default installation :(, unfortunately i don't have a net connection at home for my hardy box [14:33] hmm, little wireless issue - two laptops, both the same except one on intrepid one on jaunty. wireless network is on WPA2, I can't change that. Intrepid connects fine, Jaunty fails every time [14:34] its annoying, even though the Windows GUI admin tools are awfull and you have do dig for options buried in unpteen tabs drop downs and advanced buttons, people still "like" it. [14:35] hello i got windows xp on partition and ubuntu on 2nd parition ,i format the xp but ubuntu seems affect it doesn't appear on boot although i put the /boot on a parition alone! how i can resume my ubuntu? thx [14:35] frink_: webmin is used heavily in redhat, it doesnt marry up with debian so we don't advise it [14:35] seems the facebook plugin does not work in pidgin [14:35] help`: reinstall grub via live cd [14:35] StarLionIsaac: is it possible to change also application icon ? so it will look like a firefox also on Task manager [14:35] !grub | help` [14:35] help`: 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 [14:35] StarLionIsaac: have you tried to watch "tail -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log" (or similar named) while connecting? [14:36] ActionParsnip Thx :* [14:36] erUSUL: :( [14:36] asdzxc: I don't think so, I think that's in the program's own settings [14:36] oskar-: no, though someone else suggested trying a wpa_supplicant, which actually crashed jaunty entirely, and forced me to fresh install [14:36] hey, is this possibile: one server for my few computers network, one isp with a big internal peering bandwidth and a small external bandwitdth. is there possibile to limit the max internal bw for each computer and not just the external one? i'm not talking about my network's internal speed, it's about the isp which has peering in all the country [14:37] tommck: :| if you where happy using the vendor driver before why not contnuing to use it ? [14:37] has anyone here get there HDMI audio to work on the TV from PC with a nvidia card? [14:37] can anyone test a package for me? [14:37] What is the easiest way to find out what user accounts exist (that have a shell) other than to looking at the /etc/passwd file? [14:37] diddy: Thats the best place to look.... [14:38] ActionParsnip: So ebox is the debian/ubuntu webmin? OK, I'll try that. Ita mainly because there will be people who want to add smb shares and admin the mail server who I would not trust with a shell. [14:38] diddy: try the users and groups under system->administration [14:38] OK. Is there another 2nd best way? [14:38] pote_de_mel: what's it about? [14:38] I mean if only the shell is available. [14:38] StarLionIsaac: ubuntu is using wpa_supplicant for connecting to wpa2 networks, afaik [14:38] arand, i think it's corrupted [14:38] anyone.... [14:39] erUSUL: I wasn't happy... it was my only option... it made installation a HUGE pain in the butt.. [14:39] oskar-: I can try reinstalling yet again, but since it's a fresh install, I assumed it'd work as it does on the intrepid one - right out of the box, no issues [14:39] pote_de_mel: error messages? Which package? [14:39] arand, i would like to convert this package http://mandriva.c3sl.ufpr.br/devel/2009.1/i586/media/main/testing/x11-driver-video-sisimedia-0.9.1-1.20090622.1.1mdv2009.1.i586.rpm to a deb package [14:39] I installed xampp and now I want to delete it, should I delte it from the /home/xhunter/xampp ? [14:39] pote_de_mel: use alien [14:40] any one have an clue as to what google operating system is or will be? [14:40] tommck: well why not use software linux raid back then ? [14:40] snarkster, shows me an error === Qtpaxa1 is now known as Qtpaxa [14:40] hmm, maybe offtopic...eh? [14:40] !ot | yellabs [14:40] yellabs: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! [14:40] StarLionIsaac: yes, it should... try watching, what error causes wpa_supplicant to not connect === Wurm|off is now known as Cyberworm [14:40] hehe i was faster [14:40] snarkster, Unpacking of 'x11-driver-video-sisimedia-0.9.1-1.20090622.1.1mdv2009.1.i586.rpm' failed at /usr/share/perl5/Alien/Package/Rpm.pm line 155 [14:40] faggots [14:41] oskar-: not sure, I'm using the gnome network manager applet, it tries connecting, asks for the password for the network several times, then disconnects, nothing extra [14:41] !anyone | JIHAD [14:41] JIHAD: 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? [14:41] I'm currently running my system without any swap. I have 4gb of ram. Is there an issue with this? [14:42] snarkster, what do u think? [14:42] aperson, will if you try to suspend or hibernate [14:42] pote_de_mel: Yup, alien fails, and file-roller freezes (seemingliy). [14:42] aperson: if you don't hibernate or exceed it, no prob [14:42] StarLionIsaac: as i said, try: "tail -f /var/log/wpa_supplicant.log", disable wireless networking, enable it, then connect and see, what is added to the log file [14:42] I SAID FAGGOTS [14:43] oskar-: alright, back in a few with result === pote_de_mel is now known as dog_pote [14:43] Well, I don't plan on suspending or hibernating, but that's good to know. Thanks Halitech and DasEi [14:43] aperson, it all depends on what you plan on doing with the system [14:44] aperson: np, welcome [14:44] mdm: how so? also, do you know a mbm? [14:45] ffff [14:45] aperson, without swap you box can run out of memory. The memory manager uses swap for more then just extending ram. But if you use it simply as a desktop, do not watch movies on it, and use it as a network station then probably you will not need swap. [14:46] fuck [14:46] aperson, and yes I know mbm, he and I are not the same person [14:46] which is good? 32 bit or 64 bit? [14:46] jilbert, both [14:46] hmm.. [14:46] jilbert, neither [14:46] okay.. thanks.. :D [14:47] its just that i can't install the crossover my friend gave me on 64 bit [14:47] :( [14:47] anyway.. [14:47] thanks. [14:47] jilbert: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [14:47] jilbert, if you have more then 3gigs of ram and your system supports 64bit, go 64, if you have less then 3 gig or your system doesn't support 64, go 32 [14:47] thanks mdm, I think I can spare a couple of gigs for swap if I need to, is it still recommended to have twice as much swap as ram? [14:48] jilbert: both are good. If you have > 3Gb ram yuo need 64bit [14:48] aperson, if you are going to do it put in at least as much as you have physical [14:48] jilbert: 32 bit executables run faster, because they do not consume that much cache space for code and data. for <= 3gb 32 bit [14:48] jilbert: if you are going to do lots of encoding / decoding use 64bit [14:48] jilbert: otherwise 32bit is fine [14:48] hi [14:48] how can i run ubuntu so that the bundled operating system stays and is ran from the CD and any additions in files and programs are read from a USB thumb drive ???

[14:50] !firewall [14:50] 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 [14:50] hello.. quick question.. i deleted something using torrentflux.. its no longer in the directory but the space on my hd didnt change.. is there some kind of recycle bin on ubuntu??? [14:50] jan247: ./bla & echo $$ [14:50] then ill go linux full blown [14:50] alright, thanks again mdm.

[14:51] ah, great. tnx! [14:51] budo: are you talking about running linux without affecting your system? [14:51] budo: you just need to mount the usb to /home/ubuntu and it will be used. [14:51] any1 here know how to install gyachi? i dont know how to sorry [14:51] suroboyo [14:51] budo: it will need to be ownd by the user ubuntu as well [14:51] yes @ jilbert [14:51] any one with experience using bogofilter with qmail virtual user setup? I need pointers or an example of how bogofilter should be called from within the .qmail file, I am not using procmail, thanks for any pointers [14:51] I am currently trying to install Ubuntu on my new netbook, but suffering with the Realtek ALC662, as i can´t get any sound, any ideas? [14:51] newuser: It depends on what kind of hosting you are attempting to do... If it is a large website than it could be cheaper [14:52] run the CD from windows [14:52] StarLionIsaac: hm, that's not much... does the ap accept the mac of the wlan device? [14:52] specto: do you know how to install gyachi? i've downloaded the pack [14:52] but cant seem to load it [14:52] specto it is rather small, I am a teacher and I use it for my class [14:52] budo: run the ubunto CD from windows. it will allow you to install ubuntu just like other programs [14:52] I assume so, it did with XP on it before I formatted it to Ubuntu, same hardware config, just differnet OS [14:52] bavarbot, hi [14:52] bazhang: (NOTICE #ubuntu :I don't know how to bazhang. [14:52] mount the usb everytime i startup in ubuntu ? @ actionparsnip [14:52] the intrepid box that's exactly the same has no trouble though [14:52] budo: then uninstall it if you don't like it.. [14:53] budo: ubuntu should mount your usb automatically ounce you inset it [14:53] StarLionIsaac: you could also try to watch the output of "sudo iwconfig" (call it multiple times while connecting), to see, if the device get associated with the ap and gets a key [14:53] i need extract a file [14:53] Anyone here know how to install GYachi? Could really use some help, i cant seem to install it, even tho its been extracted into a folder [14:53] anybody? [14:53] Hustlers_23 what is GYachi [14:53] will it save any of my settings on the usb? ~ jilbert [14:54] i googled n its like yahoo messenger, but for ubuntu, supports chat n video [14:54] hi :D how can i see the return value of a command line program? [14:54] budo: yes, you will either need to mount it manually or you can modify the ISO to mount it using blkid (messy to setup but makes things nice, plus if the USB craps out you will needto remaster the ISO again) [14:54] StarLionIsaac: is it the same network device, that is used? or only a similar? every network device has a different mac address burnt into [14:54] Hustlers_23: Just use the PPA for gyachi.... https://launchpad.net/~loell/+archive/ppa [14:54] how do you turn blutooth on on your computer?

[14:55] !bluetooth [14:55] For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup [14:55] oskar-: it's the same network device on both, though I have third computer which has a different device also on jaunty, that fails too [14:55] dont know how to do that sorry, my 2nd day on ubuntu from years of windows lol [14:55] Hello. How can I find out the time a user logged out when the login was recorded in what is now /var/local/wtmp.1? [14:55] vlt, last [14:55] Hustlers_23: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [14:55] the flash drives crap out or have a limited lifespan? ~ actionparsnip [14:56] budo: yes but its a decent run. [14:56] Hustlers_23: got to that site and click on Read about installing page [14:56] my spelling just died... [14:56] Hustlers_23: copy the lines that start deb and deb-src to that file, save the new file and close gedit [14:56] Hustlers_23: then in terminal type: sudo apt-get update [14:57] Hustlers_23: if you tell me the code it gives I'll give you the code to supress the GPG errors [14:57] ActionParsnip: Might want to check if he is using the terminal. [14:57] Hustlers_23: there is also some install info available on the sourceforge site (http://gyachi.sourceforge.net/download.shtml) but as specto said, use the PPA when you're looking to download/install the prog. [14:57] http://www.linux4all.net/install_gyachi_on_ubuntu_jaunty [14:57] oh, well, that looks even better! [14:57] im trying to make that language english n struggling lol [14:57] im guessing its indonesian [14:58] mdm: The sessions aren't shown in `last`, only the login times from `last -f wtmp.1` [14:58] does linux servers has MS ISA like program that we can install? [14:58] vlt, if they are still logged in it will tell you [14:58] hello.. quick question.. i deleted something using torrentflux.. its no longer in the directory but the space on my hd didnt change.. is there some kind of recycle bin on ubuntu??? [14:58] mdm: No, they logged out. But they were still logged in when the former wtmp became wtmp.1 [14:59] jilbert, did you mean is there web server software? Plenty, try apache === ben is now known as Guest44026 [14:59] oskar-: it does appear to get a key and connect, but that's as far as it seems to go, it seems to me like it's not sending the network password [14:59] guys ive downloaded it, the version 1.2 of gyachi [14:59] mdm: nope its like a traffic monitoring/firewall software [14:59] jilbert: what does ISA stand for, the acronym I mean? (so we can have a better idea of what you're looking for?) [15:00] belco: Yes, the trash icon is to the right on the bottom panel if I remember correctly, though do note that if you delete a file that is currently open, the file will still take up space, until it is closed. [15:00] abb: ISA = Internet Security & Acceleration Server [15:00] jilbert: You can watch traffic with `iftop` for example, firewall is configured with `iptables` commands (or frontends). [15:01] <_UsUrPeR_> does anyone in here know about DBus? I am having an issue getting a touch screen working, and according to Xorg.7.log, I am being denied access to the DBus by a security policy. I am running Jaunty. [15:01] jilbert, smtp?mrtg? I am not familair with what microsoft supplies as ISA [15:01] mdm: thanks.. [15:01] Hustlers_23: you need to add those 2 lines to /etc/apt/sources.list then run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install gyachi [15:01] sorry action, which 2 lines [15:02] vlt: thanks as well.. any way i can run a DHCP server on my Desktop ubuntu? [15:02] and by clicking ALT+F2? add them using ALT+f2? [15:02] StarLionIsaac: does it expect dhcp which is perhaps not there? you could also try to run wpa_supplicant manually to get more debugging output and find out what causes the problem [15:02] jilbert, sure its called dhcpd, pay attention to that last d. It requires setup before it can run [15:02] What umask do you guys use? [15:02] jilbert: sudo aptitude search udhcpd [15:02] geirha, is there a command to clear it?? the server is in a datacenter :) [15:03] oskar-: I don't think so, how exactly do you run it manually, and I'll have a look and try to find out [15:03] mdm: thanks. and from there, can i monitor network traffic from others connected to my server using iftop? [15:03] jilbert, and more [15:03] wow [15:03] action i think im getting there, add those 2 lines to third party software using Add? [15:04] belco: If it's not a GUI app, it's unlikely it used the trash can. It would be under .local/share/Trash if it was put in trash though [15:04] dhcpd can act like a PDC right? and i can configure windows client to join my domain [15:04] does dhcpd do that? [15:05] jilbert: usually people use samba for handling windows/PDC functionality, IIRC. [15:05] <_UsUrPeR_> no one? DBus? [15:05] belco: Or, if it's on a different filesystem than /home, then .Trash* at the root of that filesystem [15:05] StarLionIsaac: you have to tell the running wpa_supplicant instance to not configure you wlan device (disable wireless?), then setup a simple wpa_supplicant.conf configuration file (google will find many examples) and run wpa_supplicant as root with the options for device, mode and so on (wpa_supplicant --help will tell possible options) [15:05] jilbert, dhcpd just gives out ip addrreses and ip addresses of network services. if you mean a domain controler altho dhcpd can give out the ip address of a domain controler that is a samab related function [15:06] there's not much of documentation about dhcpd.. [15:06] jilbert: even on a Windows server, the active directory / PDC functionality is separate from the basic "dhcp" service/daemon [15:06] nn/win 20 [15:06] okay.. so. ill install samba first then ill run iftop [15:06] oskar-: thanks, hopefully this will solve it [15:06] that way i can manage/monitor my network [15:06] on my Desktop Ubuntu [15:06] this morning my display is not switching to external display when docked my laptop.. it just started behaving like this today.. usually when I dock my laptop the display switches to external monitor externally.. how do I go back to that normal behavior? [15:06] jilbert, where did you look? there are so many sites about dhcp I woudlnt want to count them. Its use predates email [15:07] jilbert: I'd recommend that you get samba working *first* (just use a static IP on your test box) and then get to the DHCP part of your project. [15:07] how do i access the universal repositories? [15:07] epiphany is a good browser .. [15:07] abb: that i will do.. [15:07] the login prompt shows in external gui .. but after the login it goes blank and I can only see the gnome in laptop screen [15:08] hi guys, newbie question #2, if i'm using dualboot ubuntu / xp, and i use ubuntu for browsing, is my xp 100% safe from getting any unwanted virus/spyware? [15:08] action: still no luck [15:08] they are added to source list [15:08] actionparsnip where is the accessories menu? === Severity2 is now known as Severity1 [15:08] should i use the gnome session or x script ? [15:08] neo8848, as long as you do not boot the windows os, and as long as you do not mount the directories from it. Probabbly [15:08] I'm trying to make a bash script, which will start another bash script remotely through SSH. This works, however if I for some reason terminate the SSH connection, the bash script on the remote computer stops... Anyone knows how I can keep the bash script on the remote computer running, even though I terminate the SSH connection? [15:08] jilbert: but I would recommend (if you have the space for it) that you test some of this stuff out using a liveCD or virtual install of Ubuntu Server. During install, you'll be able to click "samba, dhcp, firewall, blah, blah, blah" and have it all working asap. [15:09] jilbert: (rather than doing everything off your desktop machine, that is) [15:09] utorrents got a good version with udtp [15:09] mdm: still doesn't sound like 100%, but I guess i'll have to go with not mounting the xp partition [15:09] neo8848, ot to be more exact its quite posible you can download a virus to your web cache that does not effect nor work on the Linux box that you later mount up in XP and infect [15:10] why my ubuntu radio canot use? [15:10] dagama: the bash script you run on the remote computer needs to be executed with an ampersand at the end -- eg, run blah -option 1 & [15:10] neo8848, they do not effect linux, they will effect windows, wine, and vritual hosts [15:10] is there anyone use it? [15:10] thanks [15:10] dagama: then you can log off and the program will generally continue running, under most server setups. [15:10] any1 here know how to Install Gyachi????? [15:10] ok, will try that :) [15:10] got tnfs with xp partition and maybe not mounted so , still thinking there are linux files on there ^-^ [15:10] zhoujingrui: try streamtuner or amarok or winamp in wine [15:11] neo Do not mount windows partitions when you are using linux [15:11] i ran gnome-display-settings and then picked the external monitor and appky the new settings.. that fixed my display problem.. thanks [15:11] @mdm: yes, i would have to agree, i'd have limited my browsing under a virtualbox if my pc just wasn't too damn slow [15:11] has anyone here get there HDMI audio to work on the TV from PC with a nvidia card? [15:11] neo8848, in fact if you have a known infected drive intenttianny putting it in linux and running clamav on it is a good idea. it wil not infect the linux host that you are scanning with [15:11] i just dont know what to use gnome or x something script [15:11] did anyone have any luck installing latest ubuntu on virtualbox? [15:12] what is xcliant ? [15:12] budo : yep [15:12] client? [15:12] budo, several times, several versions [15:12] it didnt work on me for some odd reason' [15:12] for * [15:12] L3d: it might be easiest to boot off a LiveCD that is dedicated to fixing virus-type stuff, as you're describing. Check out ubcd4win.com and google "antivirus boot CD" for tons, tons, tons of them. [15:12] budo : installed from a iso file ? [15:12] yes [15:13] budo : mdsum checked ?

[15:14] so i should be able to get it working in ubuntu also [15:14] the boot selection menu came up and before it went to intialize the system, it will stop [15:14] just dont know gues xclient is best also then ?? [15:14] Anyone here able to help me install Gyachi, i cant :( [15:14] pik}, putting audio on hdmi is a matter of hardware. If you can do it in windows then some it is using a hadware driver.

[15:47] do i need gnome for my video drivers ? [15:47] wapko, you do know the model with speed is simply a text string the cpu returns, right? [15:47] mean gnome session not xclient ?

[15:50] wapko, what multiplier did you set it to? [15:50] can annyone tell me what to do ,use xclient or gnome ? [15:50] stew: cos i set it to 3600 mhz in bios [15:50] mdm: 8.5 [15:50] wapko: but why do you think that /proc/cpuinfo is wrong? [15:50] i cant seem to get Jaunty and my xorg.conf file correct. i need 1280x1024 using nvida-glx driver and it keeps saying can't parse config file after I add my resolution.

What system? Ext3? Ext4? [16:16] mazda01: I don't think compiz (composition) works with that kind of setup, so from my point of view, you're screwed I'm afraid. Perhaps someone else can shed some light on it [16:16] which ubuntu version recognize vista partitions?

Any help ? [16:16] Anyone ubuntu certified [16:17] alad, swap has its own filesystem. Don't format it as anything because Linux will overwrite it. Make the swap about twice as large as your RAM. Put it at the end. [16:17] iGama, does chage work? [16:17] peol, what knd of setup do you run with 2 screens. [16:18] elad, sounds like you have heaps of space so make your swap a good 5 gigs [16:18] Hey guys. I would like to add a user on this ubuntu partition. He shouldnt be able to delete/edit any files, but when its transfered to him, he will have full control over the files. Is there a command to do so ? [16:18] mazda01: Pure twinview, http://pastebin.com/m7a0f3e75 [16:18] richardcavell: Thanks. Only a few more questions: What type of system for Linux itself? Ext3? Ext4? Something else? Beginning? End? Does it become the Linux partition by having its mount point as "/"? [16:18] join#afterdarkclub [16:18] peol, and twinview is where your desktop is stretched upon both screens? [16:19] elad, use ext3. Some people have found ext4 to be unstable, but you can use it if you want. Don't use anything other than ext. Put it after Windows XP. You mount the Linux partition as / and that means that everything will be installed there by default. [16:19] mazda01: Yeah,http://andreehansson.se/Screenshots/screenshot5.png [16:19] Both the swap and the "/" are logical new partitions, not primary, yes? [16:19] Seveas, no [16:19] * badeagle has no issues with Ext4. [16:20] Seveas, it gives me the same message, user not found, because its not in the /etc/passwd, its a ldap user [16:20] elad, what partition table are you using? [16:20] MBR? GPT? [16:20] they'll all be primary partitions since you have fewer than 4 [16:20] richardcavell: Whatever XP, which I installed first, installed.

You'll need at least equal to your RAM for that [16:29] Otherwise it doesn't really get used [16:29] ubuntunewbie, sure, for Laptops it's needed for such feature.

[18:06] jimmy: I wouldn't reccomend an update, things will break [18:06] Ryan1: http://standards.freedesktop.org/shared-mime-info-spec/latest/ might be a starting point, as ubuntu follows the freedesktop standard [18:06] jimmy: You can upgrade from 5.10 to 6.06, and then from 6.06 to 8.04 [18:06] hello, could someone walk me through the "No Internet Access" part of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx ?

[18:06] editing the /etc/apt/sources.list or via the update manager, though i would trully suggest you to stay with the 9.04 release [18:06] glitsj16: Thanks a lot! [18:06] safe: The .purple folder is where all your pidgin settings are, so those are probalby safe. :) [18:06] Awsoonn, pidgin is running, as well as skype, but they are lacking from the panel [18:06] rski: Yes, there are [18:06] ok.

[18:11] specto: Yeah, because of course I didn't google it before coming on IRC [18:11] Peazip won't download. that is this [18:11] nlindblad: that first link didn't work for you? [18:12] how can i tell what chipset my wifi card is? [18:12] Nomad_: nothing good. If nothing else went wrong due to complications, you'd be missing out on some transitional packages, so you might wind up not automatically upgrading your kernel (5.10 had arch specific and UP/SMP specific, then 6.06 switched to just arch specific, and now we're just on -generic, for instance) [18:12] I would change the value of memory on the /etc/php5/....php.ini to something larger than the default [18:12] azlon: i think you can do tomething like lspci [18:13] Awsoonn, should I do a "$ sudo cp /home/new /home/old" or a backup and format? [18:13] thanks [18:13] I'm still trying to install lexmark X2600 printer in 9.04. Any sugestions? [18:13] hey, could someone walk me through the "No Alternate Internet Access" part of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx ? I dont know what im doing and it wont work :( [18:14] d' evening [18:14] Flannel: thanks, i didn't know about the arch params on 5.10 :) [18:14] any hints on playing a full screen video with 2 graphic cards (both nvidia, mplayer only fullscreens on one card ..) [18:14] hi guys, what the real difference between "shutdown -h now" and "poweroff" / "shutdown -r now" and "reboot" [18:15] shf: install b43-fwcutter with sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter (this is on the cdrom) [18:15] specto: The first link is a naggy blog post about how the PHP community refuses to support Sushido [18:15] ok i can't find anything about my internal card on the ubuntu wireless page, ideas on what to do now? [18:15] safe: well, do you have your tray icons back in yoru new accoutn you just made? [18:15] nlindblad: ah, well just try to up the amount of memory allowed in php.ini [18:15] Err, suhosin [18:15] shf: than download those two files [18:15] specto: I already found and installed the .deb of b43-fwcutter [18:15] glitsj16: perhaps not 100% sorted... The file will only open in the correct application if I use the open with option. If I double click on it, it asks me to run in terminal or display [18:15] shf: than in the same folder use those commands on that link. [18:15] If your new account is working for you, just copy the folders that you need from the old account to the new account and be on your way. (That is what I would do) [18:16] specto: and i have the two files, and i did sudo cp /path/filename /lib/firmware/ to both files [18:16] Ok. Question [18:16] if you just copy the folder competely with sudo cp blah you'l certianly run into some issues. [18:16] Awsoonn, yes [18:16] specto: and now the commands say input file not found in terminal [18:16] How the crap do I open .7z? [18:17] Awsoonn, how do I know which folders do I need? [18:17] I need all of them :P [18:17] specto: Good suggestion, thanks :) But increasing 20MiB does nothing. [18:17] sephy: If you install the p7zip package, then gnome's archive tool will be able to extract them [18:17] shf: you have to make sure you are in the same folder as where you downloaded those two files. [18:17] well, you probalby want your .purple folder and and .mozilla folder [18:18] nlindblad: hrm, did you compile php yourself? [18:18] I'll look, Thanks Pici [18:18] Ryan1: i see, would a short shell script be a better solution for you? Once you make such a script executable, double-clicking will always work [18:18] how can I sync my time with internet time servers? [18:18] Hi, Is there any easier way to install grub in Jaunty [18:18] specto: what do you mean? navigate to the folder and then what? [18:18] It will be a fun time to play aroudn in teh hidden folders. [18:18] How can I remap keyboard keys? I tried xmodmap but it doesn't work in terminal or gvim [18:18] shf: navigate to the folder where you downloaded the two files that are linked on the link that you provided [18:18] you can see hidden folders in nautilus by pressign ctrl+h [18:18] nlindblad: what's the problem? [18:18] specto: ok done [18:18] o hai [18:18] is it possible to install windows from ubuntu? [18:18] shf: than use the commands that are there on that page, sudo.... I'm not there anymore. [18:19] can i update my kernel if i have 1.3gb of space left? [18:19] jagjr: not exactly, but you can put it in a virtual machine and run it inside Ubuntu === marceloleaes is now known as marcelo[away] [18:19] you might need to sudo chown newusername file to make your new user 'own' the files you copy from the old user. if that makes sense. [18:19] specto: hello there [18:19] jagjr : No its not possible, you need a Windows CD to install Windows [18:19] * specto needs to get back to work, good luck everyone! [18:19] glitsj16: That would work for the one instance of the file type I wan to use. Bit of a perfectionist and would like it to just work - you know what I mean? How would I write a script for it?' [18:19] i have a windows Cd [18:19] but everytime i boot it up it says it cant recognise my HDD [18:20] specto: so i have one window that shows the files, now i go to applications - accessories - terminal and fun the commands? [18:20] SATA drivers jagjr [18:20] jagjr, if its on a seperate HD, you could set up a VM, run the CD and install it to the HD...

[18:21] shf: ah, basically, I don't use the gui so I'm not sure how that works sorry, I have to go now [18:21] Ryan1: it shouldn't be very complicated to produce a shell script for that filetype no, just use a text-editor of choice and start the first line with "#!/bin/bash" .. the second line contains the full command to start java etc [18:21] beam: look up web publishing on google. [18:21] beam: I have to go sorry. [18:21] specto: no problem [18:21] Flannel, thanks, i know what to do though. just thought those windows designers would have learned how to honor other OSs by now [18:21] specto: thanks anyway [18:21] b43-fwcutter is no gui :/ [18:22] so where can i get a SATA driver? [18:22] plus i dont got any floppy discs [18:22] hi i have a problem [18:23] i installed via apt-get install firefox3.5 and when i running firefox - 3.0 starts what is firefox3.5 new path ? [18:23] i installed linux then windows xp and then tried repair grub but when i boot into it i get an error -> uknow filesystem type [18:23] FD_F: its executable name is probably firefox-3.5 [18:23] Ryan1: chmod +x the script file and put in in your ~/bin folder to make sure it's in your PATH === kb is now known as Guest12879 [18:23] FD_F, its the symlink in /usr/bin that is pointing to the old FF [18:24] !grub | demo [18:24] demo: GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager.
