| losher | sebsebseb: well, that bunch of characters is the name of a filesystem, and unlike the hd stuff, it doesn't change when shuffle disks around. Once you get the uuid right, in theory you don't have to worry any longer about how the kernel numbers disk drives. Personally, I prefer labels -- Same idea except you get t choose the label names yourself... | 00:01 |
| lstarnes | ibeekman: you can also export it in a terminal with gpg -a --export $USER | 00:01 |

| brime | Hello I'm wondering if there's a way to slow down the output from /dev/urandom? I'm using tr -dc '[:print:]' < /dev/urandom now but its to fast | 00:03 |
| losher | sebsebseb: the old way has 2 problems: a) if you add or remove a disk, the hd numbering changes, and b) different grubs may name disks differently, and so may different linuxes. uuids solve this, at the cost of being very long (to make sure they are unique). It's actually worth it if you move disks around much... | 00:04 |

| rgrig | in synaptic/xubuntu, "reload" succeds if synaptic is run from the command line, but not if run from the xfce menu. in the later case it fails because it tries to use some (wrong) proxy. in BOTH cases settings->preferences->network says "direct internet connection", which is how it should be. any ideas? | 00:09 |

| Jarr0d | Hey guys. I am learning to get a firewall working. I have been playing around with UFW using the "linux firewall" component in Webmin. I had created a few rules as a test and they were working fine. But now any changes I do in webmin are being carried across to iptables.up.rules but they are not being implementd by ufw. I have tried ufw reload but it doesn't bring the new rules across. Is there another way I can force it to load the rules fro | 00:11 |
| veggteppe | cprime: router yeah. Opend the ports for the game (warcraft 3), well, forward ports is more of the correct term for it i suppose. | 00:11 |
| byerley | if there a better room for bash questions? | 00:12 |

| cprime | veggteppe, I meant another machine on your local network, sorry. | 00:20 |
| veggteppe | cprime: Think i may have expressed my issue abit wrong xD, the "map server" is basicly the gaming server:P, were people can enter and game.:P | 00:21 |
| veggteppe | It just seems like even if i opend my port's on the router, that linux blox it or somet | 00:21 |
| ekimmargni | Can Evolution export emails (for import into another client)? | 00:22 |
| cprime | veggteppe, ok well I'm trying to verify that you can the ports forwarded correctly. one way to do that is to look at incoming connections from both sides of a router. | 00:22 |
| veggteppe | Okay, no , don't have another computer on the net atm. | 00:23 |
| cellofellow | cooper77z: while I'm not familiar with Cinelerra (I've tried it but never used it), you want to use an I frame-only format like mjpeg or DV for editting. They're larger than other formats but faster and higher quality. | 00:23 |
| JuanJOBC | Hi all | 00:23 |
| JuanJOBC | I want to install Ubuntu Server 9.04 in a Xeon server, but I realized that the 64 version when downloaded the iso image says "AMD", ???? Is this normal? | 00:23 |
| Flannel | JuanJOBC: Yes. AMD64 is the standard name for 64bit x86 compatable-type processors | 00:24 |
| JuanJOBC | Flannel, ahhh , ok, so I am not going to have any issue installing it in the Xeon one, am I? | 00:24 |
| Flannel | JuanJOBC: Assuming it's 64bit, then no, no problems. | 00:25 |
| JuanJOBC | Flannel, ah ok man, the name of the ISO just confussed me, thanks a lot | 00:25 |
| Flannel | JuanJOBC: just like i386 isn't *just* for intel processors ;) | 00:26 |
| cprime | veggteppe, ok, no worries. Let's see if we can see a process connected to that port locally. sudo lsof -p:<port_number> | 00:26 |

| Armageddon | mezquitale: how do you install the flash plugin ? | 00:44 |
| mezquitale | Tenkawa, flash is never prepackaged though | 00:44 |
| mezquitale | it's not prepackaged with the distribution, I mean | 00:45 |
| Tenkawa | mezquitale: good point | 00:45 |
| Armageddon | mezquitale: no it's not | 00:45 |
| Tenkawa | but its usually in the nonfree repos isnt it? | 00:45 |
| Armageddon | mezquitale: and i dont think it is on the repos either | 00:45 |
| nawk | Armageddon: do you want the 64-bit version or the 32-bit version (and yes you could run the 32-bit version on jaunty amd64) | 00:45 |
| Armageddon | Tenkawa: not the firefox plugin, i downloaded the repos i guess | 00:45 |
| NewfierRich1 | Can someone help me out in getting my s Video working? | 00:46 |
| Armageddon | nawk: of course i want the 64 if it exists ! the plugin for firefox ! | 00:46 |
| NewfierRich1 | any help would be great | 00:46 |
| mezquitale | Armageddon, the way I install it is I go to a website that needs flash, then I click on the link that tells me where to go to get the software, I download and install the software from adobe and it works, use the debian packaged software | 00:46 |
| Armageddon | mezquitale: but its 32 bit not 64, that's the problem they have no 64bit version | 00:46 |
| Tenkawa | hmm | 00:46 |
| Chessguy | thanks | 00:46 |
| Tenkawa | no adobe-flashplugin in 64 bit repos? | 00:46 |
| CaptainCrook | i need to mount my boot partition from a live cd ... but not in read only... any suggestion^ | 00:47 |
| mezquitale | Armageddon, flash, the original flash is owned by adobe, there is an open source software that will help you play flash but i never really use it, I just download from adobe | 00:47 |
| nawk | Armageddon, I believe the 64-bit version is an alpha release and is not in the repo. You would have to google it and unpack it | 00:47 |
| derenrich_ | i thought 64 bit linux flash didn't exist? | 00:47 |
| nawk | derenrich_, yes it does. i'm using it as we speak | 00:47 |

| derenrich_ | nawk: gnash? | 00:47 |
| Armageddon | mezquitale: didn't for me, not the .deb file | 00:47 |
| ekimmargni | !ask | Barridus | 00:47 |
| ubottu | Barridus: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 00:47 |
| derenrich_ | gnash doesn't count | 00:47 |
| Tenkawa | yeah | 00:48 |
| Tenkawa | I'm specificly talking adobe tm | 00:48 |
| nawk | nope, its from adobe, it was released in late feb this year, it's an alpha version. | 00:48 |
| Tenkawa | nawk: is it even a deb? | 00:48 |
| Chessguy | hm | 00:48 |
| Tenkawa | or a standalone installer? | 00:48 |
| nawk | tenkawa nope | 00:48 |
| mezquitale | gnash is the other option | 00:48 |
| derenrich_ | nawk: oh, alpha, is it any good? | 00:48 |
| derenrich_ | gnash is subpar, at least the last time i tried i | 00:49 |
| derenrich_ | t | 00:49 |
| nawk | its a shared library, but installation could not be any easier | 00:49 |
| * Tenkawa runs a few iterations of vmware converter on a vm | 00:49 | |
| Dr_Willis | CaptainCrook: if you mount it. from a live cd. the root user should be able to have full access to it. | 00:49 |
| Chessguy | ok i'm trying to run tremulous and it won't show the list of servers (the client gets the list from master.tremulous.net), but I can view the server list in firefox fine, and I can also access the server list from another computer using same router. Any ideas why this may be? | 00:49 |
| Chessguy | www.tremulous.net | 00:50 |
| nawk | derenrich_, it does the job but yea, it does look a lil chessy | 00:50 |
| Chessguy | btw | 00:50 |
| mikejonez | hi i need some help with my ubuntu server, can someone help me in pm? | 00:50 |
| derenrich_ | nawk: gnash or the alpha? | 00:50 |
| nawk | gnash | 00:50 |
| derenrich_ | kk | 00:50 |
| derenrich_ | anyone have experience running tripwire in ubuntu? | 00:50 |
| mezquitale | mikejonez, nobody will want to help you in pm, maybe if you ask the question first someone might be interested, in either case, ask the question itself first, if the question is to go to PM with you then the answer is no | 00:51 |

| Chessguy | ok i'm trying to run tremulous and it won't show the list of servers (the client gets the list from master.tremulous.net), but I can view the server list in firefox fine, and I can also access the server list from another computer using same router. Any ideas why this may be? | 00:51 |
| mikejonez | well i setup my ubuntu server, and it seems to randomly become unconnectable at points, is there anything i can do to make sure it is always connectable | 00:52 |
| Dr_Willis | Chessguy: you did use the butotn at top that says 'source internet' then the button right next to it . to get new list.. (i think thats the one) i just trried it and it did work | 00:52 |

| Barridus | whenever i check for updated packages (either in synaptic or with 'sudo apt-get update') i get the error "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.". if i do that command, it results in 'dpkg: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1'. full sequence i pasted to http://paste.ubuntu.com/237664/ | 00:56 |

| len | guys, who can help me configuring alsa to make my linux work with headphones? | 00:59 |
| Tenkawa | BigdaveJoker: you might have to create a symlink | 00:59 |
| rrva | I think distcc is just spawning gcc without -m64 | 00:59 |
| Tenkawa | sounds like the tweaking I have to do for stuff like oracle | 00:59 |
| BigdaveJoker | Tenkawa oh that makes sense Thanks I'll play around with that | 00:59 |
| Tenkawa | rrva: very possible... or calling the linker wrong | 01:00 |
| Tenkawa | BigdaveJoker: just be careful... you dont want to symlink the wrong version | 01:00 |
| mikejonez | Tenkawa: there is alot of stuff in this dmesg log | 01:00 |

| thomg | Brandon yeah, sorry | 01:31 |
| leleobhz | its possible to disable 3G connections for network manager? | 01:32 |
| thomg | Brandon Most likely you are behind a router, and you need to be port forwarding on the router. If you are trying to set up a web server, that's a different use case. | 01:32 |
| Brandon | well i have access to my router but i dont know what the ip i need to use is... | 01:32 |

| kbp | WeblionX both pc r connecting to lan ports | 01:35 |
| kbp | (simple its just a server pc and a desktop pc) | 01:35 |
| WeblionX | kbp: It's most likely one of the hard drives or motherboards not being fast enough. | 01:36 |
| WeblionX | kbp: However, the router may also not be able to provide full throughput. | 01:36 |
| kbp | WeblionX: maybe the harddrives, bcoz the server one is 5400rpms but the desktop one is 7200rpms | 01:36 |
| WeblionX | kbp: Yeah, the 5400RPM drive is most likely limiting it. | 01:37 |
| Brandon | thomg: now you understand the jam i am in? | 01:37 |
| WeblionX | Brandon: Right click on the network icon, then choose Connection Information. That will give you the IP of your computer to put in the router config. | 01:38 |

| linuxguy2009 | dbm: Your refresh is at 60hz. I think thats normal. | 01:38 |
| WeblionX | dbm: If it's an LCD, that's normal. | 01:38 |
| Brandon | where is the network icon? | 01:39 |
| WeblionX | dbm: If you need to change it, make sure you have the drivers for your video card installed. | 01:39 |
| WeblionX | Brandon: Top right. | 01:39 |
| dbm | linuxguy2009, no its not mate, sometimes i could put 75hz | 01:39 |
| dbm | and i reinstalled for some reason.. | 01:39 |
| Brandon | you mean internet icon? | 01:39 |
| MK13 | Brandon, are you on ubuntu right now? | 01:39 |
| dbm | and when i installed again onyl 60hz | 01:39 |
| Brandon | Yes. | 01:39 |
| WeblionX | Brandon: Same thing. | 01:39 |
| linuxguy2009 | dbm: Depends at what resolution your running your desktop and what modes your monitor supports mate. | 01:39 |
| dbm | my monitor is good | 01:40 |
| linuxguy2009 | dbm: Im sure it is. | 01:40 |
| dbm | SyncMaster713n - Samsung | 01:40 |
| MK13 | Brandon, you could also use the command "ifconfig" in the terminal to figure out ur ip | 01:40 |
| WeblionX | dbm: Check your monitor's manual for the optimal refresh rate. If it's higher than 60Hz, you most likely need to install the restricted drivers for your video card to be able to change it. | 01:40 |
| linuxguy2009 | dbm: Lower resolutions on LCD monitors sometimes allow for 75hz depending on the reolution set. | 01:40 |
| Brandon | ah i found it ty | 01:41 |
| DaZ | dbm: i'd use gtf to generate modeline and add it to xorg.conf | 01:41 |

| dbm | I've try something ;) | 01:42 |
| dbm | Thanks for help. | 01:42 |

| mattwj2002 | hi everyone | 01:48 |
| mattwj2002 | I am looking for a program can anyone help? | 01:48 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: You mean you want to convert the AVI to a DVD video disk(as apposed to a DVD data disk)? | 01:48 |
| WeblionX | mel: Did you create a partition in the empty space? | 01:48 |
| rogue | no | 01:48 |
| Tracy-P | mel: if the partition is in a extended partition according to Windows you will probably see this. | 01:48 |
| rogue | hello_world.c | 01:48 |
| richardcavell | mattwj2002: what sort of program? | 01:48 |
| DaZ | just program | 01:49 |
| zaccour | linuxguy2009, i want to be able to burn an avi file to a dvd disc to be able to play in a dvd player | 01:49 |
| mattwj2002 | a program like netstumbler that can detect 802.11n wireless networks | 01:49 |
| thomg | Brandon: what kind of router are you using? | 01:49 |
| * leleobhz ask for someone from networkmanager | 01:49 | |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: hmm never done that in linux yet. | 01:49 |
| mel | WeblionX, not at first, I tried with just blank space and then tried with a partition (had to boot back into windows to make one) neither wy would work | 01:49 |

| zaccour | linuxguy2009, i remember in windows i could do it with ashampoo, but thats not available for linux | 01:50 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: Brasero has a video DVD option. Tried that? | 01:50 |
| zaccour | i tried it said improper file type | 01:50 |
| thomg | Brandon: You have to look for something like "router status" and look for something like "DHCP client table" or "client list" or "connected clients" or something. | 01:50 |
| WeblionX | mel: Did you make it an "ext3" type partition? | 01:50 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: What kind of file did it want you to have? | 01:50 |
| zaccour | linuxguy2009, avi | 01:50 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: AVI in what format? | 01:51 |
| mattwj2002 | anyone have any ideas | 01:51 |
| thomg | oh nevermind he's gone | 01:51 |
| mattwj2002 | ? | 01:51 |
| WeblionX | mel: From the live CD you can use gparted (Partition Editor) to make a partition as needed. | 01:51 |
| lisa_ | How do i change fonts in ubuntu 8.10 | 01:51 |
| mel | WeblionX, no because windows didn't guve me the option for that type, I would have formatted it ext3 if ubuntu would let me but it just tells me it is unusable | 01:51 |
| zaccour | linuxguy2009, the format is avi | 01:51 |
| WeblionX | mel: Does it tell you that it's unusable in gparted? | 01:51 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: AVI is notg a format. AVI is a container only. | 01:51 |
| mel | WeblionX, yes | 01:51 |
| zaccour | linuxguy2009, oh how do i figure that out? | 01:52 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: AVI can be divx or any number of formats. | 01:52 |
| bebe | yup yup | 01:52 |
| Tracy-P | bbl | 01:52 |
| WeblionX | mel: Open a console and type 'sudo cfdisk /dev/<drive>' and paste the screen here http://paste.ubuntu.com/ | 01:52 |
| bebe | avi usually uncompressed | 01:52 |
| kingtut | download the progam devede progam it will convert avi lv to dvd no problem | 01:52 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: not sure, maybe google for brasero dvd video or something. Im sure youll find something. Then you can always reencode it and then make a DVD. | 01:52 |
| bebe | ffmpeg best tool | 01:53 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: look through Add/Remove in the sound & video stuff. | 01:53 |
| mel | ok WeblionX I will need to quickly reboot bck into ubuntu s I m in windowxs atm, brb | 01:53 |
| bebe | bc -l -p 7979 | 01:53 |
| bebe | nc -l -p 8080 | 01:53 |
| bebe | nc localhost 8080 | 01:53 |
| mattwj2002 | anyone have any ideas? | 01:53 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: DeVeDe looks popular in the list. | 01:53 |
| kingtut | and there is one for windos to it free download | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | DeVeDe works very well.. could use a little work in some places.. but it does work | 01:54 |
| jackie_ | hi | 01:54 |
| bebe | hello | 01:54 |
| WeblionX | mattwj2002: What's the problem? | 01:54 |
| Dr_Willis | I find DeVeDE works better for me then many of the apps on windows that do a similer job. | 01:54 |
| linuxguy2009 | zaccour: There ya go Dr Willis uses it and says its good. | 01:55 |
| bebe | hey jackie | 01:55 |
| jackie_ | hi bebe | 01:55 |
| mattwj2002 | I am looking for a program similar to netstumbler for ubuntu that supports 802.11n....I have an 802.11n wireless card that is working | 01:55 |
| jackie_ | vpn.itshidden.com | 01:55 |
| bebe | i know is freakin awesome | 01:55 |
| bebe | itshidden | 01:55 |
| WeblionX | mattwj2002: 'kismet' is pretty good. | 01:55 |
| MK13 | is any body in here familar with XWinWrapper? | 01:56 |
| mattwj2002 | it doesn't appear to support 802.11n though :( | 01:56 |
| kingtut | i have had any problem you need to ntsc it creats a iso image you burn it to dvd | 01:56 |
| mattwj2002 | "Kismet is an 802.11 layer2 wireless network detector, sniffer, and intrusion detection system. Kismet will work with any wireless card which supports raw monitoring (rfmon) mode, and can sniff 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g traffic." | 01:56 |
| mythomaniac | jackie_, i cannot get that vnp to work, what version of ubuntu you using> | 01:56 |
| jackie_ | jaunty | 01:57 |
| bebe | imusing intrepid | 01:57 |
| WeblionX | mattwj2002: It's probably just not updated. | 01:57 |
| mattwj2002 | I'll give it a try though | 01:57 |
| bebe | peace out yo | 01:57 |
| WeblionX | There shouldn't be any differences. | 01:57 |

| mel | ok thanks WeblionX, here is the pastebin http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/f15f54e65 | 02:01 |
| jackie_ | i've only used it for 2 days now, but everything seems to work great | 02:01 |
| jackie_ | sometimes a little slow | 02:01 |
| WeblionX | Mel: I see the problem. | 02:02 |
| mythomaniac | :/ | 02:02 |
| WeblionX | mel: You need to keep the data on the unusable partition, right? | 02:02 |
| jackie_ | MYTH > * http://ubuntu-chronicles.blogspot.com/2009/07/jaunty-vpn-itshiddencom.html | 02:02 |
| mel | WeblionX: yes the unusable space is 2 partitions, 1 with data I want to keep and a 20gb space I made for ubuntu | 02:02 |
| MEGApancakes | do i have to regustur | 02:03 |
| jackie_ | sudo apt-get install network-manager-pptp | 02:03 |
| Evet | jackie_, did you use turk telekom? | 02:03 |
| jackie_ | no im in chicago XP | 02:03 |
| TiM1 | guys, i have dual boot, XP - UBUNTU, i want to resinstall XP, how can i do that? if i install xp, will i lose the grub? | 02:03 |
| jackie_ | http://webupd8.blogspot.com/2009/07/anonymous-bittorrent-using-itshidden.html | 02:03 |
| jackie_ | just ignore step 3 | 02:04 |
| jackie_ | COMCAST | 02:04 |
| MEGApancakes | so i installed laberath mindmapping and it is not working | 02:04 |
| WeblionX | mel: You can only have 4 primary partitions. Do you need to keep all the other partitions, too? | 02:04 |
| mel | WeblionX: yes, I do need all of them unfortuntely | 02:05 |
| WeblionX | mel: Do you have any spare harddrives that can fit that data? | 02:05 |
| GodfatherofEire | Ok, I think I screwed up somethin in aptitude, cause NO software from uni or multiverse repos are showin up | 02:05 |
| liamo1 | Hi all. I have just installed 64 bit ubuntu but when the auto update screen appeared a segmentation fault occurred on update? | 02:06 |
| mel | WeblionX: not really but I guess I could split the data on the "unusable" space and put it in the other 2 partitons and resize them, I don't need much space for ubuntu | 02:07 |
| === Emily is now known as MoonJu_ | ||
| Brandon | yeah 1 prob 192.168.* is localhost | 02:08 |
| jackie_ | sorry to hear that liamo1 | 02:08 |
| WeblionX | mel: Well, the problem is you need to make one of the primary partitions an extended partition, then put the two unusable and the former one into the extend partition. | 02:08 |
| GodfatherofEire | anu ideas why aptitude wouldnt dl anything from the uni or multi repos? | 02:08 |
| TiM1 | guys, i have dual boot, XP - UBUNTU, i want to resinstall XP, how can i do that? if i install xp, will i lose the grub? | 02:08 |
| MEGApancakes | for some reason laberith mind mapping is not working | 02:08 |
| WeblionX | mel: With just the one harddrive it'll be hard to do that. | 02:08 |
| Brandon | so that did not work | 02:08 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: yes, but you can restore it, also why do you want XP? | 02:08 |
| dfrbn | to poop on | 02:09 |
| WeblionX | brandon: That's not localhost, that's the local network. | 02:09 |
| liamo1 | Jackie is this normal? It crashed my system and left it unusable | 02:09 |
| TiM1 | because i have a wife...! :D | 02:09 |
| jackie_ | no normal at all | 02:09 |
| jackie_ | did you change your repositories? | 02:09 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: how can i do that? | 02:09 |
| liamo1 | No | 02:09 |
| jackie_ | hmm | 02:09 |
| ernest64xp | wasup dudes.. i am new opn Xchat | 02:09 |
| jackie_ | sudo apt-get update "does what?" | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: maybe virtual machince XP inside Ubuntu? as long as you at least 512MB RAM | 02:09 |
| === nubuntu is now known as CaptainCrook | ||
| ernest64xp | Updatethe repository list | 02:09 |
| mel | WeblionX: oh ok, I'm not too bright with all this stuff heh ;) I guess I will wait a few days and buy an external drive, thanks for all your help =) | 02:09 |
| sebsebseb | !grub | TiM1 | 02:10 |
| ubottu | TiM1: 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 | 02:10 |
| WeblionX | mel: No problem. Hope you get it worked out. | 02:10 |
| liamo1 | Sorry this was the auto update in ubuntu | 02:10 |
| jackie_ | oh | 02:10 |
| jackie_ | hmm | 02:10 |
| jackie_ | weird | 02:10 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: i have a poor pc... | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: how much RAM? | 02:10 |
| GodfatherofEire | I really need to get the universe and multi repos enabled, I know I'm askin frequently, but I got a splitting headache, and I cant restart cause I'm making a LiveCD, and I need certain files | 02:10 |
| jackie_ | oh i think you changed your kernel or even the headers | 02:10 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: 1gb | 02:10 |
| jackie_ | reboot and in the grub menu choose the bottom most ubuntu | 02:10 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: that's more than enough for an XP VM | 02:10 |
| GodfatherofEire | Less there's a way to get a .deb file in there from outside the repos | 02:11 |
| jackie_ | you should have atleast 2 | 02:11 |
| jackie_ | not the restore one | 02:11 |
| liamo1 | Yes the first time it crashed it was the kernel update that caused it. The second time it was the dhcp update. | 02:11 |
| crankharder | does anyone know if it's possible to get directX working winXP inside of virtualbox? I found a bunch of closed tickets that say it's fixed, but don't see how to actually make it work... | 02:11 |
| vaustin | how do I reinstall the mouse drivers for ubuntu 9.04? | 02:11 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: but vm can run everything RIGHT? | 02:11 |
| jackie_ | what are you installing from "a downloaded cd" | 02:11 |
| liamo1 | Yes | 02:11 |
| === XLV is now known as zz_XLV | ||
| jackie_ | request a cd from conical | 02:12 |
| vaustin | my ps2 mouse stopped working on this laptop | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: well it won't be that good for 3D gaming and things like that, but other stuff it will be good :) | 02:12 |
| WeblionX | crankharder: VirtualBox has limited DirectX 8.1 support. | 02:12 |
| danbhfive | GodfatherofEire: you can get links to deb files at packages.ubuntu.com ... Im not sure whats going on with you not getting those other repos, have you checked your sources.list? | 02:12 |
| WeblionX | crankharder: The version that Ubuntu uses does not have it at all. | 02:12 |
| tomvolek_ | hi: I have a dual boot windows and ubuntu 9.x with a data partition being shared for both .. under ubuntu , the /data partition is being owned by root and group plugdev ... how can I make this being owned by a regular user like "joe" which uses the system and be able to write to it from windows OS ? | 02:12 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: that's the problem, because i still can't run 3d games on ubuntu... | 02:12 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: I got 3.0 from sun's repo, but I think I installed DX10, do I need to uninstall and get 8.1? | 02:12 |
| GodfatherofEire | danbhfive, yeah, but i dont know of another way to load the program into a liveCD other than via aptitude | 02:12 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: you can have your dual boot, but also your XP VM :) | 02:13 |
| WeblionX | crankharder: No. Did you install the guest addons? | 02:13 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: yes, actually I have DX9c installed... | 02:13 |
| jackie_ | virtual machine server is a little better than virtualbox | 02:13 |
| jackie_ | just from my experience | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: not much fun having to restart into the other OS, when you don't have to, right? | 02:13 |
| danbhfive | GodfatherofEire: whats the error? | 02:13 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: i'll try vm asap | 02:13 |
| zopiac | When I try to export a video's audio to a file using VLC, the audio in the resulting file is really choppy and doesn't play right | 02:13 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: and certain Windows games you can get working well in Wine | 02:13 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: i agree! | 02:13 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: I've got DirectDraw Acceleration enabled, but Direct3D accel is "not available" | 02:13 |
| GodfatherofEire | danbhfive, there isnt an error, thre just are no packages from uni or multi repos showin up | 02:14 |
| jackie_ | crossover is a very good program for windows apps on linux | 02:14 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: i tried but, it didn't work | 02:14 |
| jackie_ | but its not free anymore | 02:14 |
| tomvolek_ | How can I make a common partition to be write able by both a ubuntu user and a XP user on a dual boot system ? | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | jackie_: it never was free, unless when they have given it away free, counts | 02:14 |
| WeblionX | crankharder: You enabled 3D acceleration under the Display settings for the VM, and chose to install DirectX support when you installed the VirtualBox addons? | 02:14 |
| jackie_ | yeah | 02:14 |
| jackie_ | i got it when it was given away | 02:14 |
| danbhfive | GodfatherofEire: does update hit those repos? | 02:14 |
| sebsebseb | jackie_: and that's only price, not freedom with the code being open and all that | 02:15 |
| jackie_ | sebsebseb did you get it too | 02:15 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: no, I choose nothing when I installed addons...hang on | 02:15 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: i'm running ubuntu about 3 weeks now, and i'm liking it, but it's complicated... | 02:15 |
| jackie_ | ubuntu not complicated | 02:15 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: why do you think that? | 02:15 |
| GodfatherofEire | no, but its wierd, cause they should be enabled | 02:15 |
| jackie_ | slackware is complicated | 02:15 |
| jackie_ | and arch is too | 02:15 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: you mean "Guest addiations" right? | 02:15 |
| sebsebseb | and gentoo | 02:15 |
| vaustin | how do I reinstall the ps/2 mouse drivers in ubuntu 9.04? | 02:16 |
| WeblionX | crankharder: Yes. | 02:16 |
| jackie_ | hmm ps/2? | 02:16 |
| fccf | TiM1: Check out www.ubuntupocketguide.com ... really good start | 02:16 |
| tomvolek_ | How can I make a common partition to be write able by both a ubuntu user and a XP user on a dual boot system ? | 02:16 |
| jackie_ | do lspci | 02:16 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: pretty sure i checked this last time -- reinstalling/rebooting.. | 02:16 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: because install programs is easy for people who knows the linux a long time | 02:16 |
| WeblionX | vaustin: You shouldn't have to. If you need to reload it, rmmod psaux ; modprobe psaux | 02:16 |
| vaustin | jackie_, yes ps/2 was working but not after installing nvidia 3d driver | 02:16 |
| TiM1 | sebsebseb: wait a minut i'll be right back | 02:16 |
| sebsebseb | TiM1: there are some differences between Ubuntu and Windows, when it comes to the OS basics, but it dosn't have a steep learning cruve for the basics | 02:16 |
| vaustin | mouse is good it just stopped working | 02:16 |
| crankharder | lol@windows "playing logoff sound" | 02:16 |
| jackie_ | hmm | 02:16 |
| jackie_ | try another driver | 02:16 |
| vaustin | it works under other linux distros | 02:16 |
| WeblionX | crankharder: Like I said, it's limited DX support. It might not be enough for what your application needs. | 02:16 |
| vaustin | how? | 02:16 |
| crankharder | WeblionX: well should dxdiag say that Direct3D is avilable? it still says it's not | 02:17 |
| jackie_ | <WeblionX> vaustin: You shouldn't have to. If you need to reload it, rmmod psaux ; modprobe psaux | 02:17 |
| vaustin | thanks | 02:17 |
| vaustin | I'll try that | 02:17 |
| vaustin | lspci will tell me if the mouse is being recognized? | 02:18 |
| StupidWeasel | Hey folks - quick question, how would I stop my touchpad scroll (aka mouse middle scroll button) switching window focus? | 02:18 |
| jackie_ | vaustin try nvidia accelerated graphics driver version 173 | 02:18 |
| jackie_ | lspci tells you all pci devices | 02:18 |
| GodfatherofEire | !aptitude | 02:18 |
| vaustin | I used envyng to install | 02:18 |
| ubottu | aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide | 02:18 |
| WeblionX | StupidWeasel: You mean when you click on it? | 02:18 |
| vaustin | it's a toshiba 6100 with geforce4 420 go | 02:18 |
| WeblionX | Or the equivalent. | 02:19 |
| StupidWeasel | Yea, I often accidenly brush it - and change window focus at an inconvenient time =P | 02:19 |
| jackie_ | disable it | 02:19 |
| StupidWeasel | I'd still like to be able to scroll text within applications. | 02:19 |
| StupidWeasel | I'd just like to disable the window switching function =3 | 02:19 |

| Brandon | insted of going one by one in Synaptic | 02:48 |
| Brandon | well is there a file with all packages | 02:48 |
| WeblionX | Quantix: Well, you can try a different router then. Seems weird that your other systems work with it. | 02:48 |
| Quantix | I know its making me angry, i think this router is just incompatible with non-windows devices. | 02:49 |
| Brandon | so i don't need to go 1 by 1 to threw installation | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | masterstatu31: if you actual problem is 'torrent' speeds.. that can also vary greately - ive never really noticed a relable test - other then testing over several days at different sites/times and seeing what averages out. | 02:49 |

| PhyloGenesis | I did an upgrade, it looks like it worked, thanks shadowy | 03:30 |
| shadowy | np | 03:30 |
| jd123 | the machine hosts some site.. it has got old php 4.3 .. which needs to upgraded to php 5 for some reason i tried to make do with red hat 8.. upgrading php 4.3 led me to a point where i have to upgrade python > glibc > kernel > linux | 03:30 |
| jd123 | if i dont need to upgrade linux but can somehow use latest repos with old linux.. that wud be great.. can that be done? | 03:31 |
| DaZ | jd123: maybe just ignore dependencies? :f | 03:31 |
| durt | jd123, then you want ubuntu server, no, theres no way ubuntu debs are going to work with red hat, and upgrading an obsolete red hat is also impossible IMHO. | 03:32 |
| jd123 | DaZ: that a good thing to do? | 03:32 |
| DaZ | jd123: imo php doesn't depend on python | 03:32 |

| Mikey^ | Hey | 03:34 |
| Mikey^ | Anyone updated from 3.0.12 to 3.5.1 ? | 03:34 |
| rincon | how do i fsck a windows partition (/media/disk) from ubuntu | 03:35 |
| Mikey^ | firefox 3.0.12 to 3.5.1 | 03:35 |
| gartral | particularly with networking... | 03:35 |
| gartral | alright, is anyone else haveing severe issues with the recent kernal? particularly networking is dropping every 10 seconds | 03:35 |
| DaZ | rincon: are you sure you want to use fsck? | 03:36 |
| cprime | gartral, version number? | 03:36 |
| rincon | DaZ: yes, why is there any problem_ | 03:36 |
| ubuntu | is there a way to repair ubuntu ? i was installing some packages and it gave me an error and wanted to remove some packages to fix the error but it removed all my packages !! any help ? | 03:36 |
| durt | Mikey^, yes it's in the repos | 03:36 |
| DaZ | rincon: it's for linux partitions ;c | 03:36 |
| DaZ | ubuntu: even kernel? | 03:37 |
| Mikey^ | durt: is it an update to 3.0.12 or a separate package ? | 03:37 |
| Mikey^ | means if I install 3.5 I will have both 3.0.12 and 3.5.1 right ? | 03:37 |
| ubuntu | DaZ: i dont think so, but all gnome and network manager, well actually EVERYTHING ! but i dont think the kernel was touched | 03:37 |
| rincon | DaZ: yes i know, but there are some files i created with linux on the windows partition that can not be erased from windows | 03:37 |
| uber_noober | anyone know why I have to pass -speed=N for growisofs when burning a DVD ISO? | 03:37 |
| durt | Mikey^, yes | 03:37 |
| Mikey^ | ok | 03:37 |
| gartral | ok, my networking is dropping every 10 seconds after todays kernal update, its too the point that i have too rerun dchclient every time network flow stopd | 03:38 |
| DaZ | rincon: if you can't remove it with rm, fsck won't help | 03:38 |
| Mikey^ | gartral: what kernel version ? | 03:38 |
| DaZ | you can reformat it with mkfs | 03:38 |
| gartral | Mikey^: what ever todays was.. its brand new and borked | 03:38 |
| tame | okay.. so i have this older crt monitor.. and when x starts, the resolution is 1024x768. but when i get into the desktop, the monitor turns off then back on and sets itself to 800x600. doesnt seem to matter what i do, problem persists. | 03:38 |
| Mikey^ | gartral: using jaunty ? | 03:39 |
| ubuntu | any help guys ? any way i can reinstall all the packages that come with ubuntu without formating ? | 03:39 |
| gartral | Mikey^: yep | 03:39 |
| Mikey^ | did you check dmesg ? | 03:39 |
| ubuntu | cause it would be the 6th time in 2days | 03:39 |
| DaZ | rincon: anyway, df shows mounted partitions, and then do fsck /dev/sdxy | 03:39 |
| DaZ | ubuntu: you can reinstall them | 03:39 |
| ubuntu | DaZ: how ? | 03:39 |
| DaZ | apt-get install? :f | 03:39 |
| Mikey^ | so you kernel version will be 2.6.28-14 ? | 03:39 |
| rincon | i removed it with ubuntu.s filesystem explorer but i want to fsck to be sure the partition is free of errors | 03:39 |
| ubuntu | DaZ: manually ? they are in hundred, i dont remember half of them :S | 03:40 |
| Mikey^ | gartral: also check tail /var/log/messages as root | 03:40 |
| gartral | Mikey^: i just ran sudo dhclient eth0 which i had too run dhclient before, just now being the first time i had to sudo too make a solid connectio.. | 03:40 |
| ubuntu | DaZ: besides i cant connect to my network !!! | 03:40 |
| DaZ | ubuntu: should be cached | 03:40 |
| uber_noober | ubuntu: dude just boot into an older kernel...see if that helps | 03:40 |
| Mikey^ | gartral: dhclient should be run as root unless you are using network manager which is run as root user | 03:40 |
| ubuntu | i'll try what DaZ is suggesting but i dont think it will work cause i dont think i still have gnome !! | 03:40 |
| DaZ | every decent distro has packages cache, but ubuntu is... ubuntu.. :f | 03:40 |
| uber_noober | DaZ: You know anything about growisofs | 03:40 |
| DaZ | i don't | 03:41 |
| Mikey^ | uber_noober: check the man page | 03:41 |
| gartral | Mikey^: first time it had too be root for me | 03:41 |
| DaZ | ubuntu: you don't need gnome to use apt-get <: | 03:41 |
| ubuntu | DaZ: i know :/ but i need gnome to get back my desktop :) | 03:41 |
| uber_noober | Mikey^: Did already, but I keep getting an I/O error from k3B and cli | 03:41 |
| gartral | Mikey^: also, i dont have network manager, im running e17 | 03:41 |
| ubuntu | later guys | 03:41 |
| DaZ | ubuntu: you can always use cdrom as a repository | 03:41 |
| rincon | DaZ: WARNING!!! Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause, SEVERE filesystem damage., Do you really want to continue (y/n)? | 03:41 |
| Mikey^ | uber_noober: its just doesnt create the entire iso image before buring | 03:42 |
| DaZ | rincon: it's yours system | 03:42 |
| rincon | DaZ: i prefer to try scandisk from windows, sorry | 03:42 |
| uber_noober | Mikey^: I have to specify a burn speed which is odd...thought it was a media issue | 03:42 |
| Mikey^ | mkisofs creates the entire iso image before burning a data disc, growisofs does not create an entire image | 03:42 |

| === zz_XLV is now known as zz_zz_XLV | ||
| uber_noober | Mikey^: actually it uses geniso to create and iso...but it should be able to burn an iso made from mkisofs | 03:43 |
| rincon | DaZ: and dosfsck is not dangerous to the ntfs filesystem? | 03:43 |
| Mikey^ | uber_noober: did you check the options | 03:43 |
| DaZ | rincon: it's still fsck | 03:44 |
| gartral | uber_noober: forgetting about burnkit? | 03:44 |
| Mikey^ | if you are able to toggle between growisfs and mkisofs.. if you have a lot of tmp space you can use that | 03:44 |
| uber_noober | Mikey^: yeah, that's why i am werieded out...I have to force the speed at N for it to work | 03:44 |

Everything was working perfectly until I messed the BIOS and set it back to DEFAULT (I know, I'm stupid:)). Now. I didn't loose any data , but I can't access my Partition. Grub is Giving me "Error 18" which i Knew it would happen because the "1.5T" exceeded the maximum Cyli | 03:45 |
| savanny1976u | nders..Now how can I fix this???? Thank you. | 03:45 |

| yaboo | SeaPhor, yes | 03:48 |

| Mikey^ | thats what happens when you run dhclient, its sets the name server, default gateway and assigns an ip | 03:49 |

| mechtech | JuJuBee: no, I just thought to myself (if she's able to get the volume label to appear, then the drive is fine...it's prolly the filesystem on the disk) | 04:27 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: you got wired working? | 04:28 |
| JuJuBee | mechtech: I thought that since it can be read on a mac that if I installed hfsplus I could read it | 04:28 |

| Teclys | i'm trying to apt-get ndisgtk but its asking me to put in the jaunty disk, can anyone help me? | 04:29 |

| JuJuBee | I did not burn it. A photographer in NYC did and it belongs to one of my students. Not sure what they used or how they burned it. It reads in a MAC (so I am told) | 04:29 |

| JuJuBee | DaZ : dvd | 04:32 |

| histo | Thorn: what type of sound card | 05:14 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: there is also "ifconfig" | 05:14 |
| joeyeye | tomrian: right, so you can't enter that... you need to enter the 16 character passphrase that is used to generate that key | 05:14 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ghoti told me to look | 05:14 |
| kuru | added the following to my /etc/fstab file: //10.0.0.75/zfs /mnt/theworld CIFS noauto,credentials=/etc/samba/theworld.cred,uid=zms,gid=zms 0 0 | 05:14 |

| ubuntu_giant | Hello. I guess Microsoft has too big of a head to tell me this. What audio and video codecs should I use to import into Windows Movie Maker? This is an urgent question. Thanks. | 05:45 |
| mezquitale | DerKlempner , i thought "/boot" contains just the stuff needed to boot up your distro | 05:45 |
| skreech | deexannihilate: If you have something that kinda works then copy the file to somewhere safe probably in your home directory before you edit it. If things go badly just copy it back | 05:45 |
| DerKlempner | mezquitale: gah, you're right! for some reason, i thought you said "/home"! my mistake | 05:45 |
| deexannihilate | skreech: makes complete sense | 05:45 |
| skreech | then the file is the same as it was at the start and it's back to kinda working | 05:45 |
| skreech | deexannihilate: if you were following a tutorial then I would hope you have a live cd | 05:46 |
| Crazy_Geek | Are there any Linux Apps that fully utilize 64 bit processor? | 05:47 |
| deexannihilate | skreech: I don't have a live CD, but I can just download it onto a memory stick. | 05:47 |
| DerKlempner | mezquitale: considering all your kernel images reside in /boot, you might want to make it no less than 3 or 4GB | 05:47 |
| deexannihilate | skreech: do you think I should just reinstall the system? I've spent 7 hours on here without luck. | 05:48 |
| Bob_Dole | Crazy_Geek, -nothing- fully utilizes a 64bit processor. Sure some utilize more than 32bit processor could offer, though. | 05:48 |
| skreech | deexannihilate: If you have your data seperate on a home partition you could | 05:49 |
| Crazy_Geek | Thanks Bob I was just curious I use 64 bit because I have 4 gig of memory and 32 bit can't address the full amount so I loose a gig | 05:49 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: what problem do you have? | 05:49 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: I can't get an internet connection via cable or wireless. | 05:50 |
| skreech | What I was thinking was boot a live image and if the wireless works then just look at the tutorial and what ever files you changed just copy them back from the live image :) | 05:50 |
| Bob_Dole | a 64bit CPU can offer 16 exabytes of RAM. when's the last time you saw 16 exabytes of anything? | 05:50 |
| deexannihilate | skreech: I don't know how to do that! you are expecting way too much of me! :) | 05:50 |
| AK | I need help. Plus, I have never used IRC before so I am a little uncertain as to the rules of etiquette. | 05:50 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: sorry, if i make you type all over again but, did it ever work? Or it's a fresh install? | 05:50 |
| Gobby | How does one open a sh file? | 05:51 |
| ultraz | Gobby: open, or run? | 05:51 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: it worked until yesterday when I followed this tutorial page 1 #6 http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=902860&highlight=Atheros+Communications+Inc.+AR242x+802.11abg&page=6 | 05:51 |
| Crazy_Geek | Just like ext4 file system and support up to a exabyte partition where can I get a exabyte drive | 05:51 |
| skreech | deexannihilate: Well the first thing is to see if the live image has net :) | 05:51 |
| DerKlempner | AK: ask your question, and if somebody can help they will reply. please don't spam. | 05:51 |
| kindofabuzz | Gobby, open or run? open with an editor run it with sh <file> | 05:51 |
| Gobby | I guess run , Its a game client. | 05:51 |
| Gobby | What do you meant run it with sh <file>? | 05:52 |
| kindofabuzz | yup | 05:52 |
| Gobby | Command for terminal? | 05:52 |
| kindofabuzz | or if it's executable just ./<file> | 05:52 |
| kindofabuzz | yeah | 05:52 |
| AK | I just installed Ubuntu for the first time. All went well. Update manager popped up and i did the updates, rebooted and now i cant use it because my screen resolution is too high for my monitor. | 05:52 |
| Bookman | Is there a recommended device that will play multi media files on my tv from a wireless connection? Compatible with Ubuntu 9.04? | 05:52 |
| skreech | deexannihilate: Then I guess you can find the same tutorial that you were following and anytime it mentions a file copy it to your home directory after that you can get help to either use those files or push forward on making the connection more stable | 05:52 |
| ultraz | Gobby: chmod +x nameoffile and then ./file | 05:53 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: but the ethernet didn't work prior. I'm not sure if it ever worked to be honest. it might have a month ago when i got it, but i don't remember | 05:53 |
| qdb | hello | 05:53 |
| Gobby | when i do that it says no such file or directory | 05:53 |
| kindofabuzz | Gobby, but is that file from a trusted source? don't just execute anything | 05:53 |
| deexannihilate | skreech: I don't think I have a live image | 05:53 |
| Gobby | Yes. | 05:53 |
| qdb | have you got adobe-flashplugin (10.0.32.18-1intrepid1) update also? | 05:53 |
| Gobby | Its not like a cracked game or somthing | 05:53 |
| Gobby | Its something from s2games. | 05:54 |
| skreech | ultraz: Hold on I think someone had some URLS with info | 05:54 |
| kindofabuzz | Gobby, no such thing in linux =) | 05:54 |
| Gobby | I got the beta for Heroes of Newerth :). | 05:54 |
| DerKlempner | AK: what can you see on-screen when X starts? | 05:54 |
| deexannihilate | skreech: mdg did | 05:54 |
| qdb | i want to know where is written that this update is? | 05:54 |
| AK | only thing i can get running is the recovery mode screen and the shell. | 05:54 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: was that correct link, i am cant open it. I dont have GUI, using Links that might be the issue. | 05:54 |
| Gobby | Do you know what to do it says no file or directory | 05:55 |
| sam-ubu-noob | let me clarify... just a moment | 05:55 |
| skreech | ultraz: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1141529 | 05:55 |

| sam-ubu-noob | fresh install on a 18gb peice of unpartitioned free space. win xp sp2 installed on a primary partition already. but once again that was no prob before. | 05:55 |
| kindofabuzz | Gobby, well you'd have to be in the right directory | 05:55 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: I'm not convinced about the scsi thing. Most drives are emulated to look like scsi to the kernel... | 05:55 |
| sam-ubu-noob | basically i had 7.10 installed everything was good with win and all. I upgraded 7.10 even thought I knew it was a bad idea. got this error on reboot. figured it was just the update messing up so I used UBCD to delete the partitions for linux and fixed the mbr so win woud boot back up normally. then..... | 05:55 |
| DerKlempner | AK: what kind of video card do you have? | 05:55 |
| qdb | in it other version | 05:56 |
| qdb | 10.0.22.87ubuntu1~intrepid1 | 05:56 |

| skreech | ultraz: deexannihilate's problem | 05:57 |
| Gobby | And how would I go about doing that? | 05:57 |
| kindofabuzz | cd /directory | 05:57 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: yes, load up the live cd. We need to check your partitions and their uuids, and maybe do a manual grub install... | 05:57 |

| skreech | att0: How big is the tar file? | 06:03 |
| sam-ubu-noob | oops | 06:03 |
| att0 | skreech: it is 2gb | 06:03 |
| gman | Jeremdow, I tried it on another flavor of linux and it did not work. Puppy linux. (very small, but not secure for daily use.) Could you give me the steps? or is there a post on what to do? | 06:03 |
| kindofabuzz | steps for what? | 06:04 |
| skreech | att0: two files? | 06:04 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: ok, I can see that your linux device is /dev/sda2 and it looks normal i.e. no scsi problem. I don't see any swap partition. Did you decide not to add one? | 06:04 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: i assume your madwifi drivers are broken for your WiFi which have Atheros chipset. You should try reinstalling madwifi drivers. I am sorry but i cant open the linke you provided to me, my console browser (links2) probably cant open it. | 06:04 |
| gman | kindofabuzz , just installed a router, and I need to know how to get on the net. | 06:04 |
| att0 | skreech: I made a backup of the whole Ubuntu install, but I accidentally included a Truecrypt volume that is 1gb in size. | 06:04 |
| jeremdow | @gman not sure on puppy - are you connected wired or wireless? | 06:05 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: what was that guide for? | 06:05 |
| kindofabuzz | gman, have you logged into the router yet? probably 192.168.1.1 | 06:05 |
| att0 | skreech: I am debating whether to kill the archiving process and make another backup w/o the Truecrypt volume, or just waiting. | 06:05 |
| qdb | hello. flash player is updated. it is not written in http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-updates/multiverse/binary-i386/ . where is it written? | 06:05 |
| skreech | att0: I'd go with new archive | 06:05 |
| susurration | 192.168.0.1? | 06:06 |
| losher | att0: it should take about the same time to create a new 1gb archive as it will to delete 1gb out of a 2gb archive, so I'd start over if I were you... | 06:06 |
| gman | Wired, pppoe (or whatever) is in the router... I think Yes the router is set up, I am online right now with... Cough, cough, Windows.... I think I just spit up a little bit. | 06:06 |
| sam-ubu-noob | well I used UBCD to delete all the partitions again and make a unformatted one. the goal to see what happened when I tried to install from livecd with a partition of somekind defined rather than just empty space and see if worked out better | 06:06 |
| gman | 06:06 | |
| att0 | skreech: I think it *just* finished, it says "reading archive" now | 06:06 |

| bobofosho_ | can someone please help me | 06:08 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: ok, then you need a swap file. Since it never booted, I assume there's nothing in the linux setup that needs saving. So you might as well reinstall from scratch one more time. | 06:09 |
| ghindo | Real quick question - how do you install 64-bit Flash again? | 06:09 |
| sam-ubu-noob | yes it makes a swap | 06:09 |
| joeyeye | bobofosho_: question ? | 06:09 |
| gman | Jeremdow, so your saying I should boot ubuntu and it ready to go? All I have to do is open a browser? | 06:09 |
| sam-ubu-noob | i'll do that and com back if the issue persist. I think it will so probably see you soon | 06:10 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: good, that's what it's supposed to do. Just do a vanilla install... | 06:10 |

| bobofosho_ | so ever since i've installed ubuntu 8.04 i've never had sound any ideas? | 06:12 |
| jeremdow | @gman yes should be no worries - try - if not, see if you can ping or login to the router from the browser at 192.168.1.1 - and then set that as you gateway in ubuntu - it really should just work though | 06:12 |
| Sarajevo | Hello | 06:12 |

| deexannihilate | ultraz: yesterday, i copied the madwifi driver from my desktop and tried to transfer it to the netbook | 06:18 |

| ultraz | nanotube: it is more complicated then that, he would have at least to remove ubuntu-dekstop before installing kde. A lot of applications installed with ubuntu-desktop wont run on kde | 06:20 |
| nanotube | ultraz: ehrm... which ones? | 06:20 |
| gman | Before I go, Does anyone know of an interface/desktop theme that is designed for seniors or for beginner users? Or a distribution set up for the same purposes? | 06:20 |
| peepsalot | anyone installed ie8 under wine? | 06:20 |
| voss | ultraz, not necessarily you can have both kde and gnome installed at the same time, you just cant run them both at the same time. | 06:20 |
| nanotube | ultraz: there shouldn't be any conflict having both ubuntu- and kubuntu-desktop installed... | 06:20 |
| gman | Peepsalot, I looked into it and It is not listed as a working program on the wine.org site. | 06:21 |
| Bookman | Anyone with a solution for : In XChat-GNOME, is there a way to turn off the annoying join/part messages? | 06:21 |
| voss | peeps, why would you want to? | 06:21 |
| nanotube | voss: why would anyone? probably to test website compatibility and stuff.... | 06:23 |
| gman | Voss, I hate this question. People always have a need. I have to run ie7 or ie8 for work for a specific application. people have needs. and when you try to move to linux, it sucks when you have to keep a windows system around. | 06:23 |
| mataks_ | ultraz, then what should i do then? i want the kde desktop.. what should i install? | 06:23 |
| iceroot | peepsalot: if you want real ie8 for testing webpages, use vbox with windows. that will give you the best result for testing pages with ie8 | 06:23 |
| peepsalot | iceroot, yeah, i just don't have a windows license | 06:23 |
| nanotube | mataks_: just install kubuntu-desktop, and that's all. you'll then have the option to choose whether to start up into gnome or kde at the login screen. | 06:23 |
| susurration | Bookman: http://xchat.org/faq/#q211 | 06:24 |
| iceroot | peepsalot: also there a webpages which will make screenshots from websites with different users and send them to you | 06:24 |
| ultraz | mataks_: install it... they might be right. | 06:24 |
| iceroot | peepsalot: with different browsers i mean | 06:24 |

| deexannihilate | ultraz: if I just reload remix, do you think it will fix the problem? | 06:26 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: reload remix? What is that :-) ? | 06:26 |
| nanotube | susurration: sorry dude... doesn't seem like there's anyone around at the moment who knows about vpns... :| | 06:27 |
| gman | whats vbox | 06:27 |
| iceroot | !vbox | gman | 06:27 |
| ubottu | gman: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 06:27 |
| iceroot | gman: you can run any os with vbox on your current system | 06:27 |
| nanotube | gman: yea, vbox is pretty cool | 06:28 |
| susurration | nanotube, it seems that way, though to be honest i don't think its the vpn server... seems to be a flaw in the plugin... at least it states in the log that the plugin fails, three times no less | 06:28 |
| iceroot | gman: this is my vbox http://alpha-unix.de/~iceroot/suse_ubuntu_vista.png | 06:28 |
| susurration | vbox rocks | 06:28 |
| Anybuntu | Hi | 06:29 |
| ultraz | susurration: did you try to mess with the settings in VPN client? | 06:30 |
| gman | iceroot, that is cool. | 06:30 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: the version for netbook | 06:30 |
| susurration | ultraz, for things like protocol and encryption, yeah | 06:30 |
| ultraz | susurration: those settings will depend on to which vpn server are you connecting and what kind of settings server has. | 06:30 |
| gman | But why use Vbox when you can dual boot. | 06:31 |
| iceroot | gman: yes, its very nice to test some linux-distributions, also virtualbox 3.0 can use 3d hardware, so you can play games with windows on ubuntu | 06:31 |
| iceroot | gman: because you dont have to reboot | 06:31 |
| nanotube | susurration: if you think it's the plugin, why not try connecting through the cli, using something like vpnc ? | 06:31 |
| iceroot | gman: you can run ubuntu and windows at the same time, share files, share hardware and so on | 06:31 |
| susurration | nanotube, good call ;) | 06:31 |
| nanotube | gman: like others said: because rebooting sucks :) | 06:32 |
| === jackson_ is now known as jackson | ||
| nanotube | susurration: heh thanks - hope that actually helps :) | 06:32 |
| iceroot | nanotube: rebooting is a windows-problem and should not be a linux-problem :) | 06:32 |
| nanotube | iceroot: indeed | 06:32 |
| ultraz | gman: cause you can use both systems at the same time? | 06:32 |
| voss | iceroot, there are times where ubuntu has you reboot | 06:32 |
| nanotube | iceroot: once we can fix the "restart after a kernel upgrade" problem, then we'll really be set. | 06:33 |
| yo34ps3 | is anyone out there tried the karmic koala alpha release? | 06:33 |
| nanotube | but i recall there was some talk at some point about "live" kernel upgrades coming to linux. so maybe, soon... | 06:33 |
| voss | restarting after a kernel upgrade is a good idea anyway | 06:33 |
| gman | so, can I set up my linux system to act like 5 seperate systems? that woudl be cool. | 06:33 |
| iceroot | voss: yes, but ubuntu "sucks" at that point. you dont have to reboot really, but ubuntu tells you, normaly you just have to restart x or something, but ubuntu says reboot | 06:33 |
| nanotube | gman: yes, you can. or more than 5 - just gotta have enough cpu and ram :) | 06:33 |
| Anybuntu | anyone have osx running in a vbox? | 06:34 |
| ultraz | gman: you can run on your linux 5 more systems. | 06:34 |
| gman | cool | 06:34 |
| phiplan | +---++-- | 06:34 |
| voss | iceroot, many people dont have to upgrade their kernel until the next version of ubuntu | 06:34 |
| iceroot | gman: you can run 1000 other linux-systems. just your hardware is the limit | 06:34 |
| iceroot | voss: kernel-fix is also an upgrade | 06:34 |
| voss | I think the idea that kernel has to be updated so often is kinda silly. | 06:34 |
| iceroot | voss: or better, its a reason for reboot | 06:35 |
| iceroot | voss: but with ksplice it should be possible not to reboot after a new kernel | 06:35 |
| voss | Linux is sufficiently secure that most people could simply update their kernel when the next version comes out. | 06:36 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: if I completely reinstall linux, do you think it will solve the problem? | 06:36 |
| iceroot | voss: i dont think so. sometimes there are root-exploits and so on | 06:37 |
| iceroot | voss: so its a good idea to have a up-to-date system | 06:37 |
| Tetracomm | Good night. | 06:37 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: well, if you had working system ... then i would say it would. | 06:37 |
| Anybuntu | what is the ideal partition sizing for a ubuntu system? Boot, root, swap and home? | 06:37 |
| voss | anybuntu what type of computer? | 06:38 |
| ultraz | Anybuntu: that does not depend on OS but on your needs. | 06:38 |
| iceroot | Anybuntu: one on hdd? | 06:38 |
| nanotube | Anybuntu: 10g should be enough for a root partition... to be honest, i usually just stick everything onto one partition, though... | 06:38 |
| Anybuntu | netbook 120gb | 06:38 |
| ultraz | Anybuntu: you should put all on one partition. | 06:39 |
| Anybuntu | I am new to the sizing. Coming from a windows os. | 06:39 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: is there anyway to fix it? | 06:39 |
| iceroot | Anybuntu: yews, just choose that ubuntu will use the whole hdd | 06:39 |
| voss | any, let ubuntu decide | 06:40 |
| nanotube | deexannihilate: what problem are you trying to fix? | 06:40 |
| voss | use the whole hard drive and let ubuntu decide what goes where | 06:40 |
| voss | anybuntu, which brand of netbook? | 06:40 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: as i said, i cant help you now since i cant open that link with links2 ... i have no access to GUI right now. I cant help you until i see what you did. Maybe somebody else can help you. | 06:40 |
| deexannihilate | ultraz: alright, thank you. | 06:41 |
| ultraz | deexannihilate: np, good luck. | 06:41 |
| Anybuntu | Okay cool. Thanks. I am converting over and try it out for a month and see how it goes. This is my primary machine I use. | 06:41 |
| nanotube | Anybuntu: cool, good luck :) | 06:42 |
| mob | mornin all | 06:42 |
| Anybuntu | voss: msi wind | 06:42 |
| iceroot | Anybuntu: then have fun with ubuntu and if you will have any problems, this is a good place to ask | 06:42 |
| Anybuntu | thx iceroot. | 06:42 |
| mob | like where would i find the smb.conf file | 06:42 |
| voss | anybuntu, Id recommend ubuntu netbook remix btw | 06:43 |
| voss | I have a dell mini 9 and it works great | 06:43 |
| nanotube | mob: /etc/samba/smb.conf | 06:43 |
| ultraz | mob: find / -name smb.conf | 06:43 |
| mob | ty | 06:43 |
| qcjn | hi, is there a way to look via terminal, if a n app is available via synaptic ?? | 06:43 |
| iceroot | mob: /etc/samba/smb.conf | 06:43 |
| nanotube | ultraz: it's faster to "locate smb.conf" :) | 06:43 |
| ultraz | what if db is not up to date? :-) | 06:43 |
| nanotube | qcjn: use "apt-cache search appname" | 06:43 |
| iceroot | nanotube: only if you have installed it and run updatedb | 06:44 |
| bazhang | qcjn, apt-cache search term | 06:44 |
| qcjn | nanotube: thanks | 06:44 |
| Cynner | http://www.lostworlds.lv/go.php?1139723800 | 06:44 |
| nanotube | ultraz: it comes by default with ubuntu, though, doesn't it? has always been the case for me. | 06:44 |
| nanotube | qcjn: np :) | 06:44 |
| Anybuntu | I tried that one but found that the video lagged too much. I tried some tweaks I found on the net but made it worse. Went back to windows. | 06:44 |
| ultraz | nanotube: locate? it does, but how ferquently update index? | 06:44 |
| nanotube | ultraz: there's a cron job that updates the db like every day or two | 06:45 |
| ultraz | nanotube: thats what i meant, if you install now samba, you wont be able to locate it. | 06:45 |
| nanotube | ultraz: at any rate - smb.conf is a system file, it probably doesn't change location very much. | 06:45 |
| ultraz | but you can find it. | 06:45 |
| nanotube | ultraz: well yea, if you /just/ installed samba... but samba comes by default with ubuntu as well :P | 06:45 |
| ultraz | yeah. it does not. | 06:45 |
| ultraz | ultraz: installed by default? | 06:45 |
| ultraz | ups ... | 06:46 |
| nanotube | ultraz: yea, - i for one didn't explicitly install it... but it's here. | 06:46 |
| nanotube | ultraz: (this is on intrepid) | 06:46 |
| Anybuntu | I think it comes down to the damn intel graphics. | 06:46 |
| bazhang | nanotube, its not default on desktop | 06:46 |
| ultraz | didn't know that. | 06:46 |
| bazhang | !info samba | 06:46 |
| ubottu | samba (source: samba): SMB/CIFS file, print, and login server for Unix. In component main, is optional. Version 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3.1 (jaunty), package size 4421 kB, installed size 12400 kB | 06:46 |
| Marielle | HI, i a slave of windsucks! i want ubuntu on my pc..but i cant install ubuntu 7.04 HELP PLEASE! | 06:46 |
| bazhang | Marielle, that is end of life, also no need for the silly names | 06:47 |
| nanotube | bazhang: i'm running ubuntu intrepid desktop edition - and it's installed.... | 06:47 |
| sidney | I'm missing the top border in firefox. no max min and close buttons | 06:47 |
| bazhang | nanotube, then you installed it | 06:47 |
| losher | Marielle: Try 8.04 instead... | 06:47 |
| nanotube | bazhang: could have been pulled in as some dependency... but i don't do any windows stuff at all, so i fail to see how that could have happened.... | 06:47 |
| ultraz | sidney: just firefox? | 06:47 |
| Marielle | Sorry about the name but its makesme go crazy | 06:47 |
| ultraz | Marielle: try 9.04 | 06:48 |
| darthanubis | !flash | 06:48 |
| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 06:48 |
| sidney | all windows i see now | 06:48 |
| bazhang | Marielle, get 8.04 at the least | 06:48 |
| Marielle | but its a "bcm43xx_microcode"...whats that | 06:49 |
| sidney | ultraz it looks like in all windows on two machins=es | 06:49 |
| ndroftheline | hey i'm having trouble with battery life | 06:49 |
| ndroftheline | I have a number of optimizations set in rc.local but it isn't running at boot | 06:50 |
| ndroftheline | anybody have any idea how to fix that? | 06:50 |
| Anybuntu | Anyone have a msi wind netbook? | 06:50 |
| darthanubis | still woth the flash-installer pulling in the 32bit slash for 64bit users? | 06:50 |
| phiplan | -wee | 06:50 |
| losher | Marielle: that's usually for your wifi card. made by broadcomm.... | 06:50 |
| rainwalker | Is it normal for 64-bit Jaunty to only see 3.7 gigs of ram out of my total 4? I know 32-bit only goes up to 3 | 06:50 |
| qcjn | men, i wanted ro check if i can install php, cause i'm using a computer via ssh...but it s crazy, what come's up ! | 06:51 |
| darthanubis | Arora keeps asking for the flash installer to be installed, and I will not use the or install the 32bit flash when the 64bit flash works flawlessly | 06:51 |
| harisund | qcjn: what are you trying to install? And are you using apt? | 06:51 |
| ultraz | sidney: try going to System > Preferences > Appearance click Themes tab, and Customize button, try changing window borders. | 06:51 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: make sure there's a link to /etc/init.d/rc.local in your /etc/rc2.d | 06:51 |
| nanotube | qcjn: you are probably looking for package "php5" | 06:52 |
| losher | ndroftheline: that's usually because a syntax error has stopped the script. Can you run it ok by hand? | 06:52 |
| qcjn | harisund: i know how to use apt...i already have apache2 install. So now i d like to install php. Im Reading about it..and now i need to practice what i ve learned | 06:52 |
| ndroftheline | losher: yes it runs by hAND | 06:52 |
| nanotube | qcjn: do you see package "php5" ? | 06:53 |
| nanotube | qcjn: try "apt-cache show php5" | 06:53 |
| qcjn | nanotube: harisund and i m accessing this computer via ssh | 06:53 |
| qcjn | nanotube: ok | 06:53 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: there is, i think...ls -l /etc/rc2.d results in an entry showing /etc/init.d/rc.local | 06:54 |
| hax0r1337 | hi! | 06:54 |
| hax0r1337 | hey anybody know how i can download all files from http://people.freedesktop.org/~marcheu/irclogs/, i would like to 'grep' them for keywords :) | 06:54 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: hrm, ok, then it /should/ run... what makes you think it is not running? | 06:54 |
| losher | ndroftheline: you can add "echo 1 >> /tmp/log.txt" to verify it is being executed at bootup. Sprinkle these through the file (with different numbers) to see where execution stops... | 06:54 |
| nanotube | hax0r1337: use "wget" | 06:54 |
| qcjn | nanotube: then...? | 06:54 |
| nanotube | qcjn: to install it, just run "sudo apt-get install php5" | 06:55 |
| sidney | ultraz: once i customize do i install or just close | 06:55 |
| qcjn | nanotube: ok | 06:55 |
| syntax | How can you tell if your machine can run ubuntu 64bit? | 06:55 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: i have a series of optimizations like changing the dirty_writeback_centisecs to 1500 like powertop recommends | 06:55 |
| nanotube | syntax: "uname -a" if it says i386, its 32bit, if it says x86_64, its 64bit | 06:56 |
| ndroftheline | and adjusting laptop_mode, and scaling my frequency governor to powersave... | 06:56 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: and none of the settings are the way i have them in rc.local after I boot | 06:56 |
| losher | syntax: look up the cpu in google and see if it's 64 bit capable... | 06:56 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: unless i run it manually | 06:56 |
| bazhang | Marielle, you could get the torrent, or since your internet is very slow, you could contact a local user's group and see if they can help you out | 06:56 |
| losher | ndroftheline: see my comment about on how to debug it... | 06:56 |
| ndroftheline | losher: i will. do i add two >>'s or just 1? what'd the difference? | 06:56 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: try what losher recommended - put it some debug prints, and see if they show up. if they do, then it is running, but your settings just aren't taken effect... | 06:56 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: >> means "append" to file. | 06:57 |
| ndroftheline | yep yep i'm on it already thank you guys a lot.. | 06:57 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: > means "write to file" (i.e., overwrite contents) | 06:57 |
| kattollikisd | hello here | 06:57 |
| qcjn | nanotube: it says it s going to have to take off apache2-mpm-worker (my computer is in french, so i translate) | 06:57 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: oh, that's helpful to know. cool. | 06:57 |
| bazhang | Marielle, #ubuntu-mx is the ubuntu loco | 06:57 |
| kattollikisd | someone here know were i can find the window 7 icons for ubuntu? | 06:57 |
| qcjn | nanotube: that won't make problem with my apache2, that is already fonctionning well | 06:58 |
| losher | ndroftheline: two ">>" will append to the log file. One ">" will overwrite the logfile. Either will work. You could even echo "at line 12" or some such... | 06:58 |
| Marielle | OK tanks..because in torrent it says that the download will be 4 days | 06:58 |
| bazhang | Marielle, I am in there right now, /join #ubuntu-mx | 06:58 |
| Marielle | OK | 06:58 |
| nanotube | qcjn: how about this: try installing "libapache2-mod-php5" | 06:59 |
| === kevin_ is now known as uvacav | ||
| saja | hi | 06:59 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: indeed. :) i suggest looking at the "advanced bash scripting guide" for more cli goodness. | 06:59 |
| qcjn | nanotube: why ? | 06:59 |
| nanotube | qcjn: i mean, instead of plain "php5", and see if that conflicts with your apache2-mpm | 06:59 |
| qcjn | ok | 06:59 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: i effin love free software. | 07:00 |
| ndroftheline | i'm going to reboot with the test file. brb | 07:00 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: :D | 07:00 |
| hax0r1337 | nanotube: thanks | 07:01 |
| nanotube | hax0r1337: np :) | 07:01 |
| hax0r1337 | nanotube: hopefully server doesn't blacklist me | 07:01 |
| nanotube | hax0r1337: hehe | 07:01 |
| hax0r1337 | 46.1MB of text, sounds good | 07:02 |
| Keiffer | Hi, How can I see my desktop from another Linux machine? | 07:03 |
| Kartagis | use vnc Keiffer | 07:04 |
| Kartagis | !vnc | Keiffer | 07:04 |
| ubottu | Keiffer: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 07:04 |
| Keiffer | Kartagis, thanks | 07:04 |
| Kartagis | np | 07:04 |
| Kartagis | good morning | 07:04 |
| Kartagis | why do you think my X would restart itself when I try watching a .mkv file? | 07:05 |
| ndroftheline | ok, so my bootlog.txt popped out and the rc.local file is executing all the way | 07:05 |
| ndroftheline | but the changes still aren't occurring. | 07:05 |
| nutzer_ | was is los hir | 07:06 |
| * shadows090 jumps | 07:07 | |
| ndroftheline | for example, one line in my rc.local is: echo powersave > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor. immediately after boot, running cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor returns ondemand, the default. then if i sudo /etc/./rc.local and run the cat command again, it returns powersave... | 07:07 |
| Anybuntu | can anyone recommend a good book or guide to help with learning ubuntu? | 07:07 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: well, that means that something else is overwriting your changes... though rc.local is like 99 in the order, so should be running almost last. strange. | 07:07 |
| ndroftheline | and yet i'm still getting the 123456 numbers in my bootlog.txt | 07:08 |
| nutzer_ | sau blöder chat | 07:08 |
| shadows090 | I think they have ubuntu for dummies | 07:08 |
| shadows090 | I've just googled all of my problems and tried to piece it together | 07:08 |
| cadu | hey guys, i have this Atom+ICH netbook that worked fine in 8.04 but in 9.04 spits a lot of random error messages citing X and MTRR's and freezes for a second or so everytime a message like that pops up!? anyone with the same problem here !/ | 07:08 |
| shadows090 | but I'm pretty darn new | 07:08 |
| cadu | thanks in advance. | 07:08 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: ah, maybe you should use sysctl.conf for that? | 07:08 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: what's that? | 07:08 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: for setting various stuff in /sys :) | 07:09 |
| losher | ndroftheline: add something like cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor >> logfile to your rc.local to see if it takes effect.... | 07:09 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: /etc/sysctl.conf | 07:09 |
| shadows090 | cadu, did you upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04 directly? or did you upgrade to 8.10 first? | 07:09 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: yeah i found it using locate. | 07:09 |
| cadu | shadows090: fresh install. | 07:09 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: are there other special places for certain kinds of commands? | 07:09 |
| cadu | shadows090: a lot of people seem to have this problem lately with X/xgl stuff after intel's driver got updated and a load of breakage ocurred | 07:10 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: well, there are a bunch of .conf files in /etc. each one has a purpose :) | 07:10 |
| mob | @nanotube .. ever think of cloning uselfe and being a 1 person help desk... lol | 07:10 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntupocketguide.com/ Anybuntu | 07:10 |
| shadows090 | hm.. when does it spit out messages? sorry, I probably can't help, I'm new, but i'll try to spit out an idea or two | 07:10 |
| nanotube | mob: haha, i think about it a lot. :) unfortunately, the technology hasn't caught up with me yet :( | 07:10 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: i see. so if i wanted to set something in /proc...like /proc/sys/vm/dirty_writeback_centisecs | 07:10 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: is there a special place for that? | 07:10 |
| mob | ;] | 07:11 |
| gman | Hey it worked. :-) | 07:11 |
| gman | Im in on linux | 07:11 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: I'm late to the party, but if you need to set someting at boottime, you could look at /etc/rc.local for that | 07:11 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: also sysctl for that stuff | 07:11 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: yeah that's what we're trying to fix...the commands are executing (i've verified by returning values to a text file during startup) but then they're overridden somehow | 07:12 |
| losher | ndroftheline: I would've put them in /etc/rc.local. It's odd that the settings don't persist. You're going to have to do a bit more sleuthing, per my above msg... | 07:12 |
| nanotube | Ghoti: thing is, he already tried rc.local, but that stuff isn't taking effect... | 07:12 |
| gman | Hey, I just fired up system montior and it says I have 2 CPUs. but this system only has one. Whats up with that? bug? | 07:12 |
| nutzer_ | mother faker | 07:12 |
| Ahadiel | gman, What CPU do you have? | 07:12 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: you could try using rc.local to call a secondary script that starts with a 'sleep' command to wait until after whatever it is that's overriding has taken place | 07:12 |
| losher | gman: do you have a hyperthreading cpu (a cheap trick by Intel to pretend one cpu was actually two)? | 07:12 |
| bazhang | nutzer_, watch the language | 07:13 |
| Anybuntu | Bazhang: thx. Looks interesting. This would be for those times when connection the net is not available. Just reference material. | 07:13 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: use & to have rc.local run it in the background | 07:13 |
| shadows090 | oh no. this taco bell is going to hurt coming out | 07:13 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: if sysctl.conf doesn't work, try losher's idea with some cat output, might be helpful as well. | 07:13 |
| jipsy | nyaaaahh wer cani download songs?? | 07:13 |
| gman | losher Yes, it is hyper-threading | 07:13 |
| bazhang | jipsy, jamendo | 07:13 |
| shadows090 | hey are there any general rules in this room? I see language above...what can you get kicked for? I'm new to IRC | 07:13 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: losher : yeah i agree more sleuthing is required. once i get this working i'll put the commands in their appropriate places, even if just to learn which places are appropriate, but for now...i know that the rc.local works for changing /sys/* stuff because it works when i do so manually | 07:13 |
| jipsy | shud i install that? | 07:13 |
| gman | ahadiel, I don't know exactly, how can I find out other then pulling it out of the system | 07:13 |
| bazhang | jipsy, its a website | 07:13 |
| jipsy | wats jamendo? | 07:13 |
| jipsy | ok | 07:13 |
| Ahadiel | gman, cat /proc/cpuinfo | 07:14 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: that's a neat idea. in fact i might just be impatient...i read somewhere that it can take up to 30 seconds for all the scripts and things to execute after boot...maybe i'm not giving it enough time to register the changes? | 07:14 |
| ndroftheline | well ecxcept that doesn't make sense because my logfile was already present which means the cmmands already ran. | 07:14 |
| bazhang | shadows090, http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/ | 07:14 |
| gman | thanks ahadiel, do I type this in the terminal? | 07:14 |
| shadows090 | bazhang: Thank you lots! | 07:14 |
| Ahadiel | gman, yup | 07:14 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: that's possible.. I'll pastebin you a script that you could call with rc.local that will wait 45 seconds and then do what you need | 07:14 |
| geshan | what is the best way to make XAMPP and Ruby on Rails work together? | 07:14 |
| Ahadiel | gman, You're looking for "model name" in the output | 07:15 |
| geshan | anyone using XAMPP and Ruby On Rails together? | 07:15 |
| clepto | i need some help. i was following a tutorial on how to set up a usb stick as a boot disk for a bootable distro one of the commands it told me to enter was mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n BT4 /dev/sdb1 problem is being half asleep i entered that command verbatim. well my usb stick was /dev/sdc and /dev/sdb was my windows hard drive... and now my windows partition wont boot... is there anyway to recover that partition? | 07:15 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: try sysctl.conf first, i'd say. i think that's the most "supported" way... | 07:15 |
| === onchoe is now known as Putri | ||
| bazhang | clepto, you have seen the pendrivelinux website? | 07:16 |
| ndroftheline | nanotube: i'm going to check sysctl to see if its sending commands to overwrite my rc.local settings | 07:16 |
| bazhang | !usb | clepto also this | 07:16 |
| ubottu | clepto also this: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 07:16 |
| geshan | can anyone help in installing ruby on rails on Ubuntu 9?? | 07:16 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: http://pastebin.com/fc545ad8 You can put that script wherever you need to and call it in rc.local with '/path/to/script.sh &' | 07:16 |
| nanotube | ndroftheline: well good luck - i'm gonna get some sleep :) | 07:16 |
| clepto | bazhang: thanks but that has absolutly nothing to do with what i need help with | 07:16 |
| nanotube | !ror | 07:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ror | 07:16 |

| gman | what is the web site that you can past in to the room without spamming? | 07:17 |
| ultraz | clepto: what was on /dev/sda1 ? | 07:17 |
| bazhang | clepto, you erased the windows partition? | 07:17 |
| miickeeAU | I need help, I tried to archive my /var/www/ directory and now I think my files are all screwed | 07:17 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: awesome thanks | 07:17 |
| bazhang | gman, paste.ubuntu.com | 07:17 |
| ultraz | bazhang: he just cant boot it. | 07:17 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: my pleasure! | 07:17 |
| gman | thanks bazhang | 07:17 |
| Ahadiel | !pastebin | gman | 07:17 |
| clepto | ultraz: as my message said my windows partition. i dont think i erased it | 07:17 |

| ultraz | clepto: you said your windows partition was on /dev/sdb | 07:17 |
| clepto | yes | 07:18 |
| clepto | command i entered was mkfs.vfat -F 32 -n BT4 /dev/sdb1 | 07:18 |
| Evet | I can't install Flash Player plugin to firefox, using 8.04 | 07:18 |
| clepto | is there a way to reverse that? | 07:18 |
| losher | clepto: I think you *did* erase it. Essentially you reformatted it. I think it's probably unrecoverable & you'll have to reinstall from scratch. You could try testdisk, however.... | 07:18 |
| ultraz | clepto: sorry, didnt read right. | 07:18 |
| Kartagis | why do you think my X would restart itself when I try watching a .mkv file? | 07:18 |
| ultraz | clepto: you can recover it. | 07:18 |
| clepto | ultraz: whew how do i do that? | 07:19 |
| nanotube | clepto: try looking here: http://en.kioskea.net/faq/sujet-729-recovering-lost-files#under-gnu-linux | 07:19 |

| gman | model: 3 | 07:19 |
| ultraz | ultraz: dont use /dev/sdb partition, so you dont overwrite existing info. | 07:19 |
| clepto | ultraz: i tried putting my windows recovery disc in but it didnt recognize the partition | 07:19 |
| Ahadiel | gman, not here | 07:19 |
| lf4 | Is there any log for commands or sudo commands that have been run? | 07:19 |
| llml | lf4: history | 07:20 |
| Ghoti | lf4: also, cat /var/log/auth.log | grep sudo | 07:20 |
| nanotube | lf4: "cat ~/.bash_history | grep sudo" | 07:20 |
| ultraz | clepto: you will have to find some partition recovery tools, the last time i used it it was about 3 years ago, and i recovered whole 40GB partition. I used one of the tools on hirenboot CD. | 07:20 |
| sage_ | how do you remove gnome | 07:20 |
| ultraz | Dont remember the name, but you can google it, i am sure there is a lot of them. | 07:20 |
| ndroftheline | ok...so i have the sleep command in place. i'm going to restart and i'll brb. | 07:20 |
| bazhang | sage_, you want kde only? xfce only? | 07:20 |
| sage_ | kde | 07:20 |
| sage_ | yes | 07:20 |
| lf4 | Thanks llml Ghoti nanotube I'll check those out. | 07:21 |
| ultraz | clepto: just dont use the hard disk you want to recover!!! | 07:21 |
| nanotube | lf4: np :) | 07:21 |
| clepto | so there isnt a command i can enter from a linux bootable to reset the partition headers? | 07:21 |
| bazhang | !purekde | sage_ | 07:21 |
| ubottu | sage_: If you want to remove all !Gnome packages and have a default !Kubuntu system follow the instructions here « https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PureKDE » | 07:21 |
| Ghoti | lf4: anytime :) | 07:21 |
| nanotube | clepto: yea, that's very important - don't write anything to the disk you want to recover. | 07:21 |
| clepto | yeah i dont plan on it | 07:21 |
| sidney | ultraz: i changed the visual effects and the border returned thanks for the help | 07:21 |
| ultraz | sidney: np, anytime. | 07:22 |
| huijian | hello | 07:22 |
| Ghoti | !hi | huijian | 07:22 |
| ubottu | huijian: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 07:22 |
| ndroftheline | losher: and i've also incorporated a sleuthy check to my logfile like you recommended. | 07:23 |
| ndroftheline | restarting now...brb | 07:23 |
| huijian | I have just opened the XCHAT ,and I don't know it is | 07:24 |
| losher | clepto: by all means attempt a recovery, but if vfat is anything like ext3, formatting writes all over the partition, not just the headers... | 07:24 |
| shadows090 | do the red lines in the IRC window mean anything? | 07:24 |
| bazhang | shadows090, nothing of import | 07:24 |
| lstarnes | shadows090: which client are you using? | 07:24 |
| clepto | losher: k i thought that fdisk was a reformat... but mkfs is too then eh? | 07:24 |
| Ghoti | shadows090: they show where the conversation was when you left the window, so it's easier to catch up when you come back | 07:24 |
| shadows090 | thanks bazhang. lstarnes I'm using Xchat. And thanks Ghoti | 07:25 |
| Ghoti | shadows090: my pleasure | 07:25 |
| Laibsch | Can somebody with a freshly installed ubuntu system please check if they have a file /etc/profile? | 07:25 |
| Ghoti | clepto: for the official record- fdisk is the partition manager that creates and removes partitions. mk*fs are the tools used to format (i. e. place a filesystem) in the partitions that fdisk makes. | 07:26 |
| Laibsch | I'm wondering if I managed to mess things up by customizing said file | 07:26 |
| losher | clepto: fdisk is a partitioner. mkfs Makes a File System. It's worth trying some recovery tools, but be prepared for the worst my friend... | 07:26 |
| Ghoti | Laibsch: I have an /etc/profile | 07:26 |
| shadows090 | I have an /etc/profile as well | 07:26 |
| Laibsch | Ghoti: thanks for checking. how recently installed? | 07:27 |
| shadows090 | a couple of months on this one | 07:27 |
| Laibsch | OK | 07:27 |
| ndroftheline | ok now i'm like w t f mate | 07:27 |
| Ghoti | Laibsch: About 2 months ago? IIRC, /etc/profile is the default that gets copied to /home/$username/.profile when a new account is created | 07:27 |
| losher | ndroftheline: some details would be nice... | 07:27 |
| Laibsch | I'm trying to find out some strange issues. For one, my ~/.bashrc isn't read when logging in on one of the VTs | 07:27 |
| ndroftheline | so losher, your recommendation was useful - my logfile indicated that the rc.local command had an effect, and changed the desired setting to the desired level. | 07:27 |
| ndroftheline | losher: haha yeah i was typing them | 07:28 |
| shadows090 | This may be a stupid question. Can you access this server on Mirc? | 07:28 |
| lstarnes | Ghoti: ~/.profile is copied from /etc/skel | 07:28 |
| ndroftheline | losher: however, when i checked the setting AFTER the script had been run (including the 45 second delay from ghoti), it was back to default - ondemand! | 07:28 |
| Ghoti | shadows090: yes you can :) | 07:28 |
| lstarnes | shadows090: yes, as it's an irc server | 07:28 |
| bazhang | shadows090, sure | 07:28 |
| losher | ndroftheline: then something else must be running later to reset it. Isn't there some gnome applet for cpu frequency. That would explain it. Applets run when you login... | 07:28 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: i'm not totally sure i did the sleep command right. | 07:28 |
| clepto | losher: well luckily there werent any really critical files on that drive... just sucks cuz ill have to reinstall everything :( | 07:28 |
| Ghoti | lstarnes: Ah, you're right. Damn this alzheimer's | 07:28 |
| lstarnes | shadows090: it's freenode, with an address of chat.freenode.net | 07:28 |
| shadows090 | thanks guys. | 07:28 |
| shadows090 | cool thanks | 07:29 |
| ndroftheline | losher: is there a centralized place to find out what applets are running? | 07:29 |
| losher | clepto: it might be worth trying testdisk http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk before you give up... | 07:29 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: did you just copy what I showed you into rc.local, or did you crate a second script which would be called by rc.local? | 07:30 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: i created a second script | 07:30 |
| Laibsch | alright, first success (I removed ~/.bash_profile which got read instead of ~/.profile) | 07:30 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: in fact i dont' think it worked because didn't you have some kind of notification message | 07:30 |
| Laibsch | still a few issues, though | 07:30 |
| losher | ndroftheline: sorry, no idea. I avoid that desktop stuff like the plague. Try googling if no-one speaks up... | 07:30 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: did you chmod +x the script file? ;) | 07:31 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: indeed i did, but good question | 07:31 |
| syntax | Whats the best program to play movies in ubuntu linux..in mplayer the frame rate skipz | 07:31 |
| Ghoti | Try running the script manually (with sudo) to make sure it works | 07:31 |
| ndroftheline | -rwxr-xr-x 1 mroth mroth 135 2009-07-30 23:18 sleep | 07:31 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: | 07:31 |
| Ghoti | syntax: you could try VLC | 07:31 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: i kow it does work, i've been doing that every boot | 07:32 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: i don't think that the sleep command is working. i'd like to try that. | 07:32 |
| ndroftheline | does anybody know how to adjust cpu frequency scaling through the GUI? | 07:32 |
| Ghoti | you can try it at a prompt by just typing in 'sleep 5'; you should get a five second delay before the next prompt shows up | 07:32 |
| mob | @syntax i tried a few and liked kafeine | 07:33 |
| ndroftheline | yeah sleep is installed and works normally Ghoti | 07:33 |
| Ghoti | could you pastebin the contents of the script? | 07:33 |
| ndroftheline | i'm not sure how to use pastebin | 07:33 |
| losher | ndroftheline: I notice in http://embraceubuntu.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/ it talks about the frequency being scaled automagically. Could that be what's happening? | 07:33 |
| shadows090 | So is this server mainly used for questions and help? Or just general chat for people in the ubuntu community? | 07:34 |
| bazhang | shadows090, support here #ubuntu-offtopic for chat | 07:34 |
| Flannel | shadows090: This channel is for support, #ubuntu-offtopic is for chatting. | 07:34 |
| lstarnes | shadows090: this server is actually part of freenode, which is a network dedicated to the free and open source software communities | 07:34 |
| beatbreaker | hi, i'm having issues getting the mic to work in Skype, i've looked at my ALSA mixer and it seems ok | 07:34 |
| ndroftheline | losher: the default setting as far as i can see is to set frequency_scaling to ondemand, which yes automatically adjusts the CPU's frequency to match loads. | 07:34 |
| Ghoti | shadows090: this particular room, or "channel", is for assistance. As above, the offtopic channel is for general kibitzing :) | 07:34 |
| ndroftheline | losher: i want to override this behavior and always run the system at a lower frequency | 07:34 |
| clepto | losher: ok im gonna go give that program a shot... i put it on my bootable persistant backtrack usb lets hope it works ill be back in a bit to let ya know | 07:35 |
| ndroftheline | losher: i get about 3h15m battery lif eon this netbook w/ winxp. max i've ever had with linux is under 2 hours. | 07:35 |
| clepto | losher: thanks | 07:35 |
| shadows090 | thanks all. I'll be exploring the off topic temporarily :) | 07:35 |
| ndroftheline | losher: but in winxp i have it set to max batt | 07:35 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: hmmm, you could set up a cron job to just periodically force the setting to be what you want it to be | 07:35 |
| losher | ndroftheline: did you say eariler that this isn't the only parameter that seems to get reset. Or is it just this one? | 07:35 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: mneh thats true but its such a dirty fix | 07:35 |
| ndroftheline | losher: really i've only been checking this once which is pretty myopic | 07:36 |
| Relaed | Hello, I want to purchase a computer as a web server and install Ubuntu. What spec is recommended ? | 07:36 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: sometimes the dirtiest fixes are the most effective ;) that said, I'm surprised the rc.local / sleepscript didn't work | 07:36 |

| beatbreaker | hi i'm having problems getting my Skype working | 07:37 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: http://pastebin.com/d10b11209 | 07:37 |
| ndroftheline | that's the text of a file i have on my Desktop called sleep, which is executable: -rwxr-xr-x 1 mroth mroth 135 2009-07-30 23:18 sleep | 07:37 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: right. And in the rc.lcoal, you have a line that says: /home/mroth/Desktop/sleep & | 07:38 |
| Ghoti | right? | 07:38 |
| Ghoti | (the '&' is important) | 07:38 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: no &. what does that do? | 07:39 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: in fact i have /home/mroth/Desktop/./sleep | 07:39 |
| ndroftheline | is that too explicit or just wasteful or what, ghoti? | 07:39 |
| Ghoti | the '&' puts the script into the background, so that the system can keep booting, (and incidentally klobber the setting in /proc) while the script is still 'sleep'ing | 07:39 |
| losher | ndroftheline: I'm looking forward to hearing whether Ghoti's workaround does the trick... | 07:39 |
| Ghoti | the /./ does no harm :) | 07:40 |
| Relaed | Hello, I want to purchase a computer as a web server and install Ubuntu. What spec is recommended for now ? | 07:40 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: sorry i'm forgetting to put your name at the beginnign of a message and i add it to the end. makes my posts sound patronizing but i'm not trying to sound that way sorry | 07:40 |
| ndroftheline | losher: i will find out presently. | 07:40 |
| Ghoti | no worries, ndroftheline :) | 07:40 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: haha i will add the ampersand | 07:40 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: do i need to change it to /sleep or can i leave it /./sleep | 07:41 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements Relaed | 07:41 |
| bazhang | Relaed, see the link above | 07:41 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: the /./ does no harm :) The upshot is that, 45 seconds *after* rc.local runs, the sleep script runs everything after its 'sleep' command | 07:41 |
| beatbreaker | hi i'm having problems getting my Skype working | 07:41 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: you mean, the ./ changes the functionality of the script? | 07:41 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: I would recommend actually using a name other than 'sleep', as you're using the same verb as the 'sleep' command. And no, '/path/to/foo' and /path/to/./foo' are identical in terms of functionality | 07:42 |
| pawan | hi | 07:42 |
| pawan | cant detect my sony ipod | 07:42 |

| Ghoti | ndroftheline: that'll do nicely :) | 07:43 |
| pawan | walkman mp3 player | 07:43 |

| losher | Kartagis: sounds like you've found an X bug. Applications aren't even supposed to be able to crash the server.. | 07:44 |

| DougM | Ghoti: when i do that.. a window comes up asking me what I want firefox to do with it. It has a dropdown with my HTML editor in it but i want to view the page | 07:45 |
| Kartagis | losher, should I file it on xorg.org or launchpad.net? | 07:46 |
| Ghoti | DougM: silly question, but are you sure it's a PHP file? | 07:46 |
| DougM | Ghoti: haha yeah | 07:46 |
| DougM | its index.php | 07:46 |
| Relaed | losher: I am looking for a spec that can handle heavy loads | 07:46 |

| Ghoti | DougM: Interesting.. *thinking* | 07:47 |
| losher | Kartagis: yes, that's what I would do... | 07:47 |
| beatbreaker | hi i'm having problems getting my Skype working | 07:47 |

| Kartagis | losher, xorg or launchpad? | 07:47 |
| === papapep-afk is now known as papapep | ||
| Ghoti | DougM: Have you tried opening the file in an editor to make sure that it is actually a PHP file, and not just named like one? | 07:48 |
| losher | Relaed: it's more of a hardware issue: disk speed, i/o system, cpu. I'm not really qualified to comment. Perhaps ask in #hardware ? | 07:48 |
| Ghoti | Relaed: Fast hard drives and lots of RAM are the key for a high-load server. | 07:48 |
| DougM | Ghoti: yeah im sure its a .php file.. im reading online and its saying that ill need ta runningApachie/PHP setup running otherwise it just views it as a text file | 07:49 |
| Relaed | Ghoti: So CPU does not really matter ? | 07:49 |
| DougM | bummer | 07:49 |
| losher | Kartagis: hmm. Good question. I'm not actually sure. Anyone? | 07:49 |
| === onchoe is now known as Put_mutz | ||
| anomoly | /part | 07:49 |
| Ghoti | Relaed: not as much as the RAM and hard drive speed, honestly | 07:49 |
| Ghoti | DougM: Aaaah, I think I know what's going on.. are you running a local web server that you're trying to use to parse the PHP file? | 07:50 |
| Kartagis | I'm asking in #xorg now | 07:50 |
| Bob_Dole | Basically if it is faster than 1ghz, the RAM matters more...unless you are doing things specifically CPU intensive. | 07:50 |
| ndroftheline | the sleep command still isn't working...i dunno what i've done wrong | 07:50 |
| Ghoti | DougM: either way, you could copy it from a .php file to a .phps file, and that should open in FireFox | 07:50 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: So the file on your desktop is empty/not there? | 07:51 |
| DougM | Ghoti: ill try that.. i think ill just keep having to upload to my server everytime i make a change that i want to view | 07:51 |
| neil_d | I can't seem to get dvdrip to convert to MPEG when it does do AVI can anyone help? | 07:51 |
| ndroftheline | it exists but only with my echos from rc.local which losher told me to put in, so i could verify that the script was actually executing | 07:51 |
| ndroftheline | it doesn't have the verification line from the sleep command. | 07:51 |
| beatbreaker | hi i'm having problems getting my Skype working | 07:51 |
| ndroftheline | lemme dig a little...get some more info. one sec. | 07:51 |
| DougM | ghoti: thanks for the help though | 07:52 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: could you pastebin your rc.local? | 07:52 |
| Put_mutz | oooooooooooooooiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii | 07:52 |
| losher | neil_d: dvdrip generates a log when it runs. Might start with that... | 07:52 |
| Ghoti | DougM: Sorry I couldn't be more helpful :( | 07:52 |
| DougM | Ghoti: no worries man | 07:53 |
| sam-ubu-noob | sweet losher your still here | 07:53 |
| neil_d | losher: yes I am re-generating it now, to see if I can see what is wrong. | 07:53 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: I was wondering what happened to you? | 07:53 |
| Put_mutz | o | 07:53 |
| ndroftheline | http://pastebin.com/m4df9f17e | 07:53 |
| ndroftheline | losher: Ghoti theres my rc.local sorry its messy | 07:53 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: yea had some other obligations and some other issues | 07:53 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: | 07:54 |
| beatbreaker | Hi, i'm having some issues with getting skype working | 07:54 |
| ndroftheline | oh and i totally screwed something else up...i was trying to see if there was some gui applet that changed my settings back and i deleted gnome-settings from my startup list...so now everything looks funny. any idea how to fix that, losher or ghoti? | 07:54 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: It didn't like the unformatted partition so i had to delete it and went with the guided use all available free space option but with the same results. | 07:55 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: aight, like what issues? | 07:55 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: you changed the name of the script, but rc.local is still looking for a file called 'sleep'.. that might be part of the problem :) | 07:55 |
| === Put_mutz is now known as put_mutz | ||
| ndroftheline | well actually i forgot to change either name | 07:55 |
| ndroftheline | ghoti | 07:55 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: so when you try and boot, what happens exactly? | 07:55 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: dropped back to shell | 07:55 |
| === put_mutz is now known as onchoem | ||
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: it's never the easy answer, is it? Silly idea- try moving the sleep script to the end? | 07:55 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: you mentioned an error message last time...? | 07:56 |
| ndroftheline | how do i background a command like sudo gedit textfile.txt? | 07:56 |
| beatbreaker | ndroftheline: i've got it installed and i can hear sound but it's not sending any sounds out | 07:56 |

| sam-ubu-noob | it's long so give me a min to type it up | 07:57 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: its probably listening on the wrong device. get into skype's options and make sur eyou have your correct sound-in device selected. | 07:57 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: doh | 07:57 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: never mind. Boot up the live cd. I'm sure you're used to this by now :-) | 07:57 |
| beatbreaker | ndroftheline: i've tried all the devices | 07:57 |

| sam-ubu-noob | lol | 07:59 |
| ndroftheline | does anybody know how to get my gnome-settings configuration back into the startup applications menu? | 07:59 |

| repc | ndroftheline hmm, when I have a gnome problem I usually do "sudo apt-get install fluxbox" | 08:00 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: won't putting sleep at the end of the rc.local file just have the computer sit there for 45 seconds before continuinng to "exit 0"? | 08:00 |
| Ghoti | repc: heh | 08:00 |
| losher | repc: naughty... | 08:01 |
| ndroftheline | repc: haha very funny but i'm using unr...which kinda depends on gnome i think, no? | 08:01 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: no, because you're running that script in the background; that's what the '&' is for :) | 08:01 |
| repc | heh, he knew it was joke. Didn't you?? | 08:01 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: http://paste.ubuntu.com/238433/ | 08:01 |
| repc | sorry, I'm in a boring lecture. I'll stop being OT and "funny" | 08:01 |
| ndroftheline | repc: my early experiences with fluxbox were confusing so i haven't revisited it in a while. | 08:02 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: hrm...doesn't the ampersand send the command that preceeds it to the background? | 08:02 |
| grawity | ndroftheline: it does, why? | 08:02 |
| repc | ndroftheline I understand. The cool thing about fluxbox (and lots of other WMs) is that you can use all the gnome things too | 08:02 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: exactly | 08:02 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: better. Your install is on sda5 and your swap is on sda6. Next step, run sudo blkid and paste the output | 08:02 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: to the script percolates in the background, rc.local finishes, your system finishes booting, and ~45 seconds later, the script that's in the background resumes | 08:03 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: so if i have bootsleep & won't it just put bootsleep running in the background....? so then if its at the end of rc.local, it will issue all the commands in rc.local then just run sleep for 45 seconds before it hits exit 0? | 08:03 |
| Ghoti | 'to' --> 'so' | 08:03 |
| beatbreaker | anyone know how to fix skype sound in problem? | 08:03 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: right, so if its at the end of rc.local dosn't it just continue from where the entry is? | 08:03 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: if its at the end then it'll just end after 45 sec, no? | 08:03 |
| ndroftheline | i mean it'll just run "exit 0" after a 45 second wait...? | 08:04 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: how do you know your mic is working? | 08:04 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: ndrofthelineif the script is called as the last line, rc.local will end more or less immediately thereafter, and the system will move on to its next boot-time task, while the bootsleep script is still counting to 45 | 08:04 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: that make sense? | 08:04 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: http://paste.ubuntu.com/238443/ | 08:05 |
| beatbreaker | anyone know how to fix skype sound in problem? | 08:05 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: yeah i think so. so putting the call to bootsleep at the end of rc.local will not do what i want it to, right? | 08:05 |
| neil_d | I am having trouble with dvdrip :( when generating a MPEG it hangs around a while on pass 1 but doesn't seems to generate the file for pass 2 I then get the error "**ERROR: [mplex] Unable to open file xxx.m2v for reading." | 08:05 |
| ndroftheline | i've changed the name of the file now. maybe that was causing some problem. let me try to reboot again | 08:06 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: not what I was expecting. What does sudo vol_id /dev/sda5 say? | 08:06 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: on the contrary, I think it will- the system will do whatever it does that's overriding your /proc setting, and then, 45 seconds *later*, you get to re-override it | 08:06 |
| Teclys | i need help getting my wireless card to work. i installed the driver with ndisgtk, but i can't get the card to work still | 08:06 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: but if after the 45 second wait all the thing does is terminate the script...how does it re-override? | 08:06 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: error opening volume | 08:07 |
| Alex__ | Does anyone know how do disable a display with ATI's CCC? | 08:07 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: well, you'd put the re-override into the script, after the 'sleep 45' command.. where the echo is now. | 08:07 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: did you remember to use sudo ? | 08:07 |

| losher | sam-ubu-noob: please try it again: sudo vol_id /dev/sda5 | 08:09 |
| sam-ubu-noob | i tried it thrice. :) | 08:09 |

| Alex__ | Does anyone know how do disable a display with ATI's CCC? | 08:09 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: if i'm backgrounding bootsleep, doesn't the script move on to the next line while bootsleep is running? | 08:09 |
| beatbreaker | anyone know how to fix skype sound in problem? | 08:09 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: exactly! | 08:10 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: that's really strange. Can you run 'dmesg | egrep /dev/sda' and paste the output? | 08:10 |
| ndroftheline | which means that while bootsleep is percolating in the background, rc.local is changing the settings...so then when bootsleep finishes its timer it re-calls rc.local from the line after bootsleep in the rc.local script? | 08:10 |

| ndroftheline | Teclys: problably man give us some details | 08:11 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: how do you know your mic is working? sorry | 08:11 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: no, when 45 seonds is up, the bootsleep picks up from the next line in bootsleep; if rc.local has finished in the meantime, so much the better. | 08:11 |
| ProfOak | where do you put custom slash screens? | 08:12 |
| sam-ubu-noob | does not produce any output | 08:12 |
| Teclys | i have an atheros card built in to my laptop, i installed the driver, and in the ndisgtk window it says 'hardware present: yes,' but when you open ndisgtk it says 'unable to see if hardware is present | 08:12 |
| hipitihop | any opinions here about using OpenDNS ? | 08:13 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: now I'm really confused. fdisk sees /dev/sda and the partitions on it, but nothing else admits they exist. Is that a correct summary? | 08:13 |
| sam-ubu-noob | http://paste.ubuntu.com/238459/ did something | 08:13 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: ok, i think that may be why this won't work...i think. so we're assuming there's some script somewhere that's running after rc.local that neutralizes the changes i have set up there. if we're allowing rc.local to run while bootsleep is counting down, then the "second script" can just run and neutralize the changes, and then rc.local isn't re-called. | 08:14 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: i think i'd need to have sleep call rc.local after it finished counting to make it work. | 08:14 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: ok, run again, this time, without the quotes front & back :-) | 08:14 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: but of course that would create a loop | 08:14 |
| geirha | ProfOak: packages put them in /usr/lib/usplash/, so I'd put custom ones in /usr/local/lib/usplash/ | 08:15 |
| beatbreaker | ndroftheline: how can i test it? i know it works in XP, and i checked the alsamixer but if you know any other ways to test it | 08:15 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: what ver of ubuntu u on? | 08:15 |
| ProfOak | geirha: don | 08:15 |
| sam-ubu-noob | same as when I said it did nothing. http://paste.ubuntu.com/238468/ | 08:15 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: rc.local only runs once, at boot-time. Here's the sequence of events I'm picturing: System start. rc.local is run, putting bootsleep into the background. rc.local finishes, system boot proceed. Default settings get stashed in /proc. System boot complete. Around 40 seconds later, the remainder of bootsleep runs. | 08:15 |
| ProfOak | geirha: I don't have a usplash folder | 08:16 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: does that clear things up any, or just make it murkier? :) | 08:16 |
| geirha | ProfOak: Create it | 08:16 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: ok then, just run dmesg on it's own & paste... | 08:16 |
| sam-ubu-noob | man fealing like i should have just stuck with 7.10 | 08:17 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: no its becoming clearer but i dont see how we're re-asserting the changes that rc.local makes after the default settings are stashed, since bootsleep just prints a confirmation message after 45 seconds. | 08:17 |
| ndroftheline | dude is there any way to kill those "enter" and "exit" messages? they take up huge amounts of space. | 08:17 |
| Teclys | ndroftheline: kubuntu 9.04 | 08:17 |
| bazhang | ndroftheline, what client | 08:17 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: I know how you feel. This *is* unusual, if that's any consolation... | 08:17 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: the idea was to put the changes *into* bootsleep, so that rc.lcoal just says to the system, "run bootsleep", and then the system boots, your settings get klobbered, and bootsleep subsequently sets them to what you want them to be | 08:18 |
| ndroftheline | bazhang: pidgin | 08:18 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: we just didn't do that last part yet :) | 08:18 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: loooollllllll i didn't know that at allll | 08:18 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: i completely had the wrong idea here.... | 08:18 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: so all wer'e doing now is trying to make sure that bootsleep is actually working, which we still don't know why it isn't...duh...sorry | 08:18 |
| sam-ubu-noob | umm that seems to produce more output than the terminal can hold. what do i do about that? | 08:18 |
| ndroftheline | i'm on pidgin | 08:18 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: *now* we're on the same page ;) | 08:19 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: seroiusly. ok. | 08:19 |
| grawity | ndroftheline: There is a plugin for that, "Join/Part hider". But Pidgin is an IM client, so its IRC support is very poor, and I would recommend using something else. | 08:19 |
| geirha | ProfOak: Then, the following should set it: sudo update-alternatives --set ubuntu-artwork.so /usr/local/lib/usplash/your_theme.so && sudo update-initramfs -u | 08:19 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: easiest thing is to run sudo apt-get install pastebinit and then run dmesg | pastebinit | 08:20 |
| ndroftheline | grawity: ok what's a good ligthweight irc client | 08:20 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: I really hate to bail on you at this point, but I'm dead on my feet over here, but I'll be here during the day tomorrow from work | 08:20 |
| ndroftheline | Ghoti: hey man dont' worry i have some idea of the bigger picture now | 08:20 |
| soloslinger | how would one enable/disable something like openssh at startup? | 08:20 |
| Ghoti | ndroftheline: glad to have helped! | 08:20 |

| Ghoti | ndroftheline: I'm glad to be of service :) Good luck! | 08:20 |
| losher | soloslinger: usually you install it once and it runs in the background always... | 08:20 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: so you've tried the "test call" with all of the options on the audio-out portion? | 08:21 |
| ProfOak | geirha: No alternatives for ubuntu-artwork.so. | 08:21 |
| sam-ubu-noob | is there a way to send it to open office or some other editor with more room similarly | 08:21 |
| soloslinger | losher: so, sudo apt-get install openssh would do it | 08:21 |
| losher | soloslinger: on my version its sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 08:22 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: dmesg | pastebinit will send it to paste and give you a url... | 08:22 |
| beatbreaker | ndroftheline: yeah, i can hear the test call but it wont record the test call | 08:22 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: under volume control, is the mic muted? | 08:23 |
| soloslinger | losher: thanks for your help | 08:23 |
| ndroftheline | beatbreaker: what are your options for the audio-in setting? | 08:23 |
| geirha | ProfOak: That's odd. You don't have a usplash theme already? | 08:23 |
| losher | soloslinger: good luck... | 08:23 |

| drewz7046 | evening everyone | 08:25 |
| ProfOak | geirha: It's fine, splash screens aren't necessary at all | 08:25 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: ok well i dont' use kubuntu so i'm not familiar with the gui tools...but if you go to a terminal and type "sudo iwlist scanning" what does it return? | 08:25 |
| sam-ubu-noob | there has to be a way to pause the terminal output so i can paste each page of it. | 08:25 |
| sam-ubu-noob | like dir /p or whatever | 08:25 |
| geirha | ProfOak: aptitude search '~i usplash' | 08:25 |
| sam-ubu-noob | lol | 08:25 |
| ndroftheline | sam-ubu-noob: type | more after he command | 08:26 |
| grawity | sam-ubu-noob: command | less | 08:26 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: you can pipe it through more e.g. dmsg | more | 08:26 |
| ndroftheline | sam-ubu-noob: haha less is more, in fact | 08:26 |
| grawity | sam-ubu-noob: Or better, command | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us | 08:26 |
| Teclys | whats the protocol for copy/pasting in here/ | 08:26 |
| ndroftheline | grawity: lol what's sprunge | 08:26 |
| ndroftheline | use pastebin.com | 08:26 |
| grawity | ndroftheline: awesomest pastebin ever. | 08:26 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: but it's a lot of output. We'll both be old by the time you finish... | 08:26 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: in fact use sprunge.us, i guess | 08:26 |
| sam-ubu-noob | let me try just sec | 08:26 |
| drewz7046 | got a question about installing firefox 3.5 on 9.10 | 08:27 |
| ndroftheline | grawity: rulleh?!?! interested... | 08:27 |
| Flannel | drewz7046: Karmic support is in #ubuntu+1 | 08:27 |
| grawity | Teclys: If it's a line or two, pasting directly is okay. If it's longer, you should post the entire thing to a pastebin. | 08:27 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: no use pastebin, yeah use pastebin | 08:27 |
| Teclys | its longer, ill try the pastebin thing haha | 08:27 |
| drewz7046 | ok thx | 08:27 |
| ndroftheline | grawity: so wait...ubuntu has a pastebin built in?!? | 08:27 |
| grawity | ndroftheline: what do you mean? | 08:27 |
| ndroftheline | you just pipe output to a command and it comes out on a sprunge pastebinthing? | 08:28 |
| Flannel | ndroftheline: Not built in, it's something you have to install. But yeah. | 08:28 |
| grawity | ndroftheline: 'curl' is a pretty much standard tool for making HTTP requests. | 08:28 |
| ndroftheline | what does curl do | 08:28 |
| ndroftheline | ah | 08:28 |
| ndroftheline | there ya go | 08:28 |
| ndroftheline | i guess i coulda rtfm (; | 08:28 |
| Teclys | http://pastebin.com/mdc5ff10 | 08:29 |
| sam-ubu-noob | jesus I see what you mean more only moves ahead one line at a time when you hit enter. | 08:30 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: you could try: sudo apt-get install curl; dmesg | curl -F "sprunge=<-" sprunge.us | 08:30 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: hit space and more will move a page at a time | 08:30 |
| Teclys | also, im trying to rename the file ndiswrapper in my modprobe to ndiswrapper.conf, but it won;t let me | 08:31 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: ok so your system doesn't think the wireless card is present or on | 08:31 |
| Teclys | i tried chown but i think im doing it wrong | 08:31 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: do you have to use ndiswrapper? | 08:31 |
| ndroftheline | Teclys: didn't you say broadcom? | 08:32 |

| indus | Teclys: are you using ubuntu 9.04? solves a lot of those isues, i have a broadcom which works correct it shows in hardware drivers | 08:37 |
| ndroftheline | steveccc: it varies from computer to computer but right when you hit the power button there should be a splash screen that says "Hit <button name> to enter SETUP' or something like that | 08:37 |
| ndroftheline | indus: he's on kubuntu 9.04 | 08:37 |
| indus | Teclys: atheros now iam on | 08:37 |
| Teclys | indus: i am using kubuntu 9.04, i don't know if that would make a difference | 08:37 |
| sam-ubu-noob | if all else fails i'll just reinstall 7.10 f it | 08:37 |
| steveccc | ndroftheline: i have already done that - cdrom set as primary boot device and even selected to boot from it but it still goes for the hard disk - the cd is fine as it boots on other machines - I think the only thing I could try is to boot from floppy and fdisk the machine | 08:37 |
| indus | ndroftheline: yah all the same kernel | 08:37 |

| ndroftheline | steveccc: yeah you might be looking at a hardware failure...i'v ehad a high fail rate with old cdroms | 08:39 |
| ndroftheline | steveccc: however, will it boot from usb? | 08:39 |

| sam-ubu-noob | yea | 08:39 |
| steveccc | ndroftheline: no usb isnt an option :( but you may be right with the hardware the cdrom doesnt sound too healthy - although it does read in the os. I will put a new cdrom on it and see if that works | 08:40 |

| Teclys | ill brb | 08:41 |
| Evet | is there a foobar-like music player for linux? | 08:41 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: that basically means your disk is failing & the system can't read it, which I think is why the boot fails. ldm_validate_partition_table(): Disk read failed. unable to read partition table. All bad, bad, bad.... | 08:41 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher then why does 7.10 have no problems at all | 08:42 |
| ndroftheline | steveccc: you could also be facing some ancient, weird bios that has the real setting you're looking for in some other place. | 08:42 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: great question. I have no idea. Maybe I'm too tired. Let me sleep on it, unless some other kind soul has any ideas... | 08:43 |
| ndroftheline | steveccc: in fact it'd probably be faster and easier to just disc the ribbon cable from the hard disk and see if it spins up the cdrom if it dosn't find the HD. then you'd know it was a boot order problem instead of a harware problem and it would take less work. | 08:43 |
| sam-ubu-noob | losher: lol np at all ty much for the help. get some rest. :) | 08:43 |
| ndroftheline | losher: i'm going to try that weird sleep method for the non-sticky rc.local changes if you want to wait for like 2 mins | 08:44 |

| ndroftheline | losher: i think i finally got it conf'd right | 08:44 |
| losher | sam-ubu-noob: ok, see you later. If I were you, I'd try putting 7.10 back on, even though it's unsupported... | 08:44 |

| Igneous | Hello everone, I have a quick question.. hopefully someone in here knows the answer. Is it possible to change the location where notify-osd places its notifications? I've looked for entries in gconf, and checked recursively for an rc/conf file in my home directory.. but no dice. Anyone happen to know how to go about changing this? | 09:48 |
| DaZ- | letting user to choose where he wants it would be too confusing | 09:48 |
| segin | Igneous: Did you look for a 'site' config file in /etc or /usr/etc/ or something similar? | 09:48 |
| moymoy | Igneous: nope... they were going to make that a feature, but they took it out before the final release because it didn't work.. didn't do squat | 09:49 |
| Igneous | moymoy: excellent... are there any known workarounds? | 09:49 |
| moymoy | rumy: how far along are you? .. i guess i'll get on your case | 09:49 |

| indus | mine only works at 2-5 mb/s maybe my hdd is bad | 10:07 |
| moymoy | gman: usb is definitely not faster than a harddrive.. he's right.. plus you say your computer doesn't have usb 2.0! | 10:07 |
| gman | indus, this is an old ide system. | 10:07 |
| Gerdesas | you are thinking of running *nix off a USB-1.1 or -1.0 flash? | 10:08 |
| gman | moymoy, I got a 2.0 card sitting on my desk. was going to put it in. | 10:08 |
| phoenixandthor | gman could buy a usb 2.0 PCI card and put it in his computer! | 10:08 |
| indus | gman: moymoy: well the usb 1.0 standard was mighty slow compared to usb 2.0 and also, linux kernel has added bits of usb 3.0 spec to it i hear | 10:08 |
| tanners | man im so screwed | 10:08 |
| indus | gman: how long do u plan to run this usb ? | 10:09 |
| moymoy | tanners: back up your vista and win7 partitions using dd | 10:09 |
| gman | indus phoenixandthor moymoy, usb 3.0 will be fantastic. really fast. I hear they are already demonstrationg product moving 167mb/s . Thats fast. | 10:09 |
| tanners | whats dd? | 10:09 |
| moymoy | tanners: do you have a huge external harddrive? | 10:09 |
| gman | indus, I was thinking just till the end of the year | 10:10 |
| moymoy | tanners: it copies a whole disk image of a partition .. a cloning tool sorta | 10:10 |
| indus | gman: ok then i think it should run fine | 10:10 |
| tanners | moy moy i already hav all my fiels backuped ...i can wipe it all out and re do it..just dman man wtf i hate ubuntu, cuases me nothign but trouble | 10:10 |
| phoenixandthor | Don't diss Ubuntu, it doesn't work for everyone | 10:11 |
| indus | gman: its actually supposed to last 10 years static data, but since you will be constantly reading and writing to the flash drive, life could be much less, but it will probably last more than a year, | 10:11 |
| moymoy | tanners: =p .. i've never had these problems with ubuntu... then again, i never tried installing win7 .. seems to be a complicated process since a lot of people post about it on the ubuntuforums | 10:11 |

| phoenixandthor | For the record, I have a 3 year old flash drive with Knoppix on it (no persistence) and it still works! | 10:12 |
| moymoy | gman: keep in mind, linux have a bunch of log files and also linux uses journaling filesystems, that'll be a lot of read/write | 10:12 |
| gman | someone said three months. wonder if he had exp with it? | 10:12 |
| Supaplex | phoenixandthor: uhhh, and that doesn't do writes | 10:12 |
| moymoy | tanners: what version are you installing anyway? .. that's weird.. the installer shouldn't be making these mistakes | 10:12 |

| phoenixandthor | Puppy linux won't do writes either unless you tell it to! | 10:13 |
| indus | gman: so the heat might kill it probably | 10:13 |
| phoenixandthor | much more suited for USB flash drives, though you may have to update once in a while | 10:13 |
| moymoy | tanners: well, i'm sorry ubuntu's been giving you this trouble.. you can try another distro... perhaps one with a more up-to-date GRUB | 10:13 |
| pozic | How can I let anyone run a certain command via sudo? It seems there are no wildcards in the grammar. | 10:13 |

| gogeta | ext2 lol | 10:14 |
| Igneous | or ext4 and noatime,data=writeback | 10:14 |
| gogeta | bit behind times are we | 10:14 |
| indus | guys, i installed karmic yesterday , grub 2 brand new ext4 , | 10:14 |
| moymoy | pozic: well first, those users have to be in the sudoers file | 10:14 |
| gman | Indux, moymoy this might be interesting. http://www.pendrivelinux.com/usb-gos-persistent-install-from-live-cd/#more-410 | 10:14 |
| tanners | lot of stuff man | 10:14 |
| xbj_kilo | etc/sudoers | 10:14 |
| pozic | moymoy: I know about the sudoers file. | 10:14 |
| tanners | indus to many thinks, grub wont load vista even tho its write and ubuntu fucked up my windows mbr so that not even the win dvd can fix it | 10:15 |
| pozic | moymoy: I was already referring to the User part of the EBNF specification which doesn't seem to allow wildcards. | 10:15 |
| gogeta | indus: enjoy testing it | 10:15 |
| moymoy | gman: the ubuntu developers have already simplified that process .. they have a tool for just that, bundled with ubuntu | 10:15 |
| phoenixandthor | Wait, On ubuntu you just have to use the Users and Groups GUI to give a person admin rights, then they can sudo all day | 10:15 |
| gman | moymoy, really, is it on the web site? | 10:15 |
| gogeta | tanners: supergrub can fix alot of errors even windows its a live disk | 10:16 |
| moymoy | gman: i've done that install written in pendrivelinux and the results were exactly the same as it would be using the tool provided by ubuntu | 10:16 |
| xbj_kilo | Igneous isn't ext2 like old | 10:16 |
| indus | tanners: aah vista i dont know ,did u run all repair grub steps | 10:16 |
| gman | moymoy, oh man, thanks. | 10:16 |
| gogeta | tanners: as well as fix a bad grub | 10:16 |
| tanners | indus iv done everything i could do | 10:16 |
| Igneous | xbj_kilo: nah man it's brand new! | 10:16 |
| gman | How long did your usb drive last? | 10:16 |
| indus | root , setup etc | 10:16 |
| phoenixandthor | ext2 is essentially ext3, without the journal! | 10:16 |
| gman | moymoy, how long did your drive last? | 10:16 |
| moymoy | gman: nope.. look in .. err i think System -> Administration -> make usb something something | 10:16 |
| indus | gman: i believe using a light weight ubuntu install should be fine for the usb | 10:17 |
| phoenixandthor | That only works with Ubuntu images | 10:17 |
| phoenixandthor | you need unetbottin for everything else | 10:17 |
| tanners | omg can anyone tell me how to get flash to work on ubuntu firefox 64 bit | 10:17 |
| moymoy | gman: xD it's still good.. i don't use it often, only for testing purposes ;) .. using it to play with moblin right now xD | 10:17 |
| xbj_kilo | tanners you need a 32-bit version of firefox | 10:18 |
| phoenixandthor | yep | 10:18 |
| gogeta | phoenixandthor: ext3 can get a system out of a jam i used to hate those random ext2 mess up and dead system | 10:18 |
| gman | MOYMOY, OMG... it right there! LOL... wow, I just found it in administration... THANKS. | 10:18 |
| gman | you guys are fantastic. Thanks for being here and helping everyone. | 10:19 |
| Gerdesas | I still have a box using ext2 - been running since '01. funny I don't have problems with random ext2 failures. | 10:19 |
| moymoy | gman: xD no problem | 10:19 |
| Gerdesas | granted, fsck times can be problematic. | 10:19 |
| phoenixandthor | Like I just said to the entire room. Look it up. Ext2 is the same as ext3, except ext3 has a journal that allows for correction of some disk errors | 10:19 |
| gogeta | Gerdesas: you just havent had a dirty shutdown yet like a powerloss or powersupply fail | 10:19 |
| Gerdesas | care to wager on that? | 10:19 |
| gogeta | Gerdesas: or dead laptop battery | 10:20 |
| gogeta | yep | 10:20 |
| gogeta | and that can save a system | 10:20 |
| gogeta | from a reinstall | 10:20 |
| Igneous | journals are equally capible of wrecking things | 10:20 |
| Gerdesas | I will reiterate. I've never had a "random ext2 failure". | 10:21 |
| gogeta | i have | 10:21 |
| blognewb | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsiRewlPKF4 | 10:21 |
| Gerdesas | Then you did something wrong. ext2's repair machinery is completely predictable. | 10:21 |
| gogeta | blognewb: i sad can lol | 10:21 |
| Gerdesas | but I've lost interest. again. if you'd like to borrow a spoon to continue your feeding, drop me a line. I'd be happy to loan you one. | 10:22 |
| gogeta | Gerdesas: oly time ext3 failed me was when the hd itsself was bad | 10:22 |
| phoenixandthor | yep | 10:23 |
| phoenixandthor | ext3 is a pretty tough cookie | 10:23 |
| gogeta | phoenixandthor: still botted the system but was dirt slow | 10:23 |
| pozic | If I execute groups, users is not listed as a group of which I am a member. Why is that? | 10:23 |
| phoenixandthor | By default in ubuntu, and this doesn't make sense, it creates a seperate group named after the user | 10:24 |
| pozic | phoenixandthor: so, what is the role of users? | 10:24 |
| gogeta | phoenixandthor: alot of ubuntu doesent make sence compared to more pure linux | 10:24 |
| gogeta | lol | 10:25 |
| Hellow | gogeta: ...it is all Linux. | 10:25 |
| blognewb | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEv3NGENmXw | 10:25 |
| moymoy | gogeta: what distro would you consider more pure? | 10:25 |
| Hellow | gogeta: There is no such thing as "unpure" or "pure" linux. | 10:25 |
| === honey^moon is now known as ce_CUPu | ||
| gogeta | Hellow: no ubuntu has many changes over something like slackware redhate or suse | 10:25 |
| Hellow | gogeta: Yes, they all have their own changes. | 10:25 |
| gogeta | Hellow: yes there is slackware its all old school | 10:25 |
| Hellow | gogeta: Slackware itself has its changes. | 10:25 |
| gogeta | Hellow: no user frendly there | 10:26 |
| moymoy | gogeta: linux is just a kernel though.. everything else is just.. there | 10:26 |
| gogeta | oh i have a few base machines | 10:26 |
| gogeta | kernel and basic text | 10:27 |

| gman | does anyone have a recommendation for a defrag utility? Ia using a dual boot system, so I'd like to defrag without messing up my windows data. | 10:27 |
| gogeta | in fact i get yelled at hear for telling people how to fix some issues using old ways (that still work) | 10:27 |
| Lenin_Cat | can someone help me swich over to wmx or fluxbox? all I want is my gtk theme/icons/etc and gnome panels. | 10:28 |
| bullgard5 | gman: Linux does not need to defrag partitions by hand. | 10:28 |
| gogeta | Lenin_Cat: install them and slect session at login you can change your wm there | 10:28 |
| indus | gman: whats a defrag | 10:28 |
| gman | bullgard5, What do you mean by hand? | 10:28 |
| gogeta | gman: ubuntu mantantes its fs auto | 10:29 |
| moymoy | Lenin_Cat: open up a terminal and type in `gnome-settings-daemon &` and then type `gnome-panel &` ... is that what you want? | 10:29 |
| Lenin_Cat | gogeta, how do I set it to use my gtk theme and all and gnome panels | 10:29 |
| Lenin_Cat | yah | 10:29 |
| kindofabuzz | gman: no need to defrag linux filesystems, ithey do they work themselves | 10:29 |
| Lenin_Cat | thats all I need | 10:29 |
| indus | gman: would you like to defrag windows? try smart defrag tool | 10:29 |
| grawity | Lenin_Cat: In ~/.gtkrc-2.0 put this line: gtk-theme-name = "Clearlooks" | 10:29 |
| grawity | Lenin_Cat: Just replace Clearlooks with whatever you use. | 10:29 |
| bullgard5 | gman: by hand = manually. I mean, Linux does this automatically very efficiently. | 10:29 |
| Lenin_Cat | I dont use clearlooks. | 10:29 |
| grawity | <grawity> Lenin_Cat: Just replace Clearlooks with whatever you use. | 10:29 |
| moymoy | Lenin_Cat: from what i know, fluxbox has a file it executes everytime it starts.. should be an executable text file you can edit to put in gnome-panel and gnome-settings-daemon | 10:30 |
| gogeta | gman: every 20 or so mounts you will see linux run its own version of scandisk it also grabs any stray fragments and other fixes | 10:30 |
| gman | Very nice, linux does it the right way. OK, still new to linux. I'm learning. indus, bullgard5, kindofabuzz,gogeta | 10:30 |
| e-Flex | gman: you can manually defrag files under ext3 at least, ext4 will have a defrag utility | 10:30 |
| gman | Thakns | 10:30 |
| gman | e-flex, sounds like there is no need to do it. | 10:31 |
| e-Flex | Exactly | 10:31 |
| phoenixandthor | I'm sorry, I should add my two cents | 10:31 |
| e-Flex | Except a loaded DB server | 10:31 |
| gogeta | lol | 10:31 |
| Lenin_Cat | grawity, that conf file is empty | 10:31 |
| Calvin | je test ac ça | 10:32 |
| gogeta | e-Flex: well then you can invoke the command manuly | 10:32 |
| moymoy | gman: no filesystem is perfect and completely immune to fragmentation .. though linux filesystems do a pretty darn good job of avoiding it ;) | 10:32 |
| phoenixandthor | ext3 and 2 do not need defragmenting because of the way the file system spreads out files to give them plenty of room to shrink and grow | 10:32 |
| grawity | Lenin_Cat: That's why I told you to create it and put that line inside. | 10:32 |
| gogeta | phoenixandthor: and the auto checks dont hurt | 10:32 |
| gogeta | kik | 10:32 |
| gogeta | lol | 10:32 |
| Dextorion | hehe | 10:33 |
| moymoy | gman: but if you SOMEHOW manage to get your harddrive extremely fragmented, you can always start copying files around .. it'll probably fix everything up | 10:33 |
| gogeta | well fsck checks for a relly fragmented drive and will correct it auto | 10:34 |
| gman | good to know moymoy. | 10:34 |
| gogeta | he should not ever have a issue | 10:34 |
| gman | My windows system is majorly defraged. | 10:34 |

| gman | Sorry, sucking down a glass of wine. | 10:34 |
| gogeta | gman: windows fs just toss file where ever it sees a zero=empty cluster | 10:35 |
| moymoy | aiy... i remember those days.. xD defragging windows .... i actually liked defragging... looking at the blocks move | 10:35 |
| erUSUL | gogeta: fsck does not defrag the filesystem... the only way is to tar everything up remove and untar ;). ext4 will have defrag and online defrag | 10:35 |
| indus | gman: i use something called smart defrag which does bits of it when system is idle | 10:35 |
| Dextorion | hehe. you guys are funny | 10:35 |
| gman | indus, I going to look at that. | 10:35 |
| gman | pulling it up donw. | 10:35 |
| indus | gman: just be careful, all kinds of freeware floating around, i dont trust smart defrag either | 10:36 |
| moymoy | erUSUL: only good if you tar everything to a different drive though | 10:36 |
| indus | gman: just read some cnet review etc | 10:36 |
| gogeta | gman: winfs was supposed to fix all those issues but ms has delayed it probly forever | 10:36 |
| erUSUL | moymoy: of course | 10:36 |
| moymoy | indus: why do you use it if you don't trust it? | 10:36 |
| indus | moymoy: it looks nice, has more options and is quite slick | 10:37 |
| gman | gogeta, it seems so easy... it should have been in windows 10 years ago. | 10:37 |
| indus | moymoy: not that i dont trust it, i just downloaded it in a hurry | 10:37 |
| moymoy | gman: indus: there's jkdefrag which i find really good.. also has a cli .. O&O is really nice too.. and is a beast at defragging | 10:37 |
| indus | moymoy: hehe cli damn it | 10:37 |
| gogeta | gman: they havent stole it from linux yet | 10:37 |
| gogeta | or apple | 10:37 |
| gman | ok, woll look at it. | 10:37 |
| gogeta | lol | 10:37 |
| indus | erUSUL: what is that about ext4 and defrag? i installed karmic yesterday so i want to know | 10:38 |
| gman | I don't like to bash windows, but the more I learn about linux, the more pissed i get. LOL. | 10:38 |
| jigpe | hello guys | 10:38 |
| gogeta | gman: linux is 1- years ahed in features but lacking in everything else | 10:38 |
| gogeta | 10 | 10:38 |
| jigpe | how total the 4mb? | 10:38 |
| jigpe | 1096x12= 4mb? | 10:39 |
| moymoy | indus: i guess it's for people who want near 0% non-contigious files | 10:39 |
| jigpe | i mean the speed | 10:39 |
| moymoy | indus: me, i'm using ext4 and i get 3% non-contigious files *shruggs* | 10:39 |
| === chaky_ is now known as chaky | ||
| jigpe | speed calculation | 10:39 |
| jigpe | 4mb is 4096 | 10:39 |
| erUSUL | indus: what i said... ext4 will (in the future not written yest) offline and online defrag support and tools | 10:40 |
| jigpe | how to get 4096? | 10:40 |
| gogeta | jigpe: get a segate ssd if you whant speed | 10:40 |
| phoenixandthor | ext4 is kind of designed for servers | 10:40 |
| jigpe | gogeta: segate? | 10:40 |
| moymoy | gogeta: how big to ssd's get? 16GB? | 10:40 |
| indus | moymoy: ext4? i hear its super fast, i installed last night then went to zzzzzzz | 10:40 |
| gogeta | segate has a 320gb | 10:40 |
| phoenixandthor | with its near t TB file sizes | 10:40 |
| gogeta | very expensiv | 10:40 |
| moymoy | indus: yah.. it's SUPER fast.. | 10:40 |
| indus | moymoy: upto 250 mb is reasonable i believe | 10:41 |
| indus | moymoy: ssd | 10:41 |
| moymoy | indus: i can delete a 4gb iso in a second | 10:41 |
| phoenixandthor | ext4 yields great performance on SSDs | 10:41 |
| indus | moymoy: woah wow | 10:41 |
| gogeta | well segate makes the fatest ssd | 10:41 |
| gogeta | fastest | 10:41 |
| jigpe | gogeta: no im talking to a calculation.im using squid and i dont know what number to put in 4mb and dont know what the calculation on how to get 4096 | 10:41 |
| gogeta | getting a cheap offbrand will be slow | 10:41 |
| indus | moymoy: iam excited about usb transfer speeds actually, on whether i will get the full usb 2.0 spec | 10:42 |
| phoenixandthor | So far there doesn't seem to be a way to turn an ext3 filesystem into an ext4 | 10:42 |
| indus | phoenixandthor: there is :) | 10:42 |
| gogeta | jigpe: 1024 is a mb so times it by 4 | 10:42 |
| moymoy | indus: i thought they were already putting 3.0 specs into the kernel.. someone in this channel mentioned it | 10:42 |
| indus | moymoy: i did :D | 10:42 |
| moymoy | oh .. lol i must be brain dead | 10:43 |

| gogeta | jigpe: 4096 | 10:43 |

| moymoy | indus: lol sorry.. i'm slipping.. getting pretty late here | 10:43 |

| indus | phoenixandthor: http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Ext4_Howto#Converting_an_ext3_filesystem_to_ext4 | 10:44 |
| jigpe | gogeta: what about 384kbps speed? how to calculate it? | 10:44 |
| indus | moymoy: i did i was answering him i believe | 10:44 |
| indus | moymoy: get some sleep :) | 10:44 |
| moymoy | jigpe: divide that number by 8 to get the kb/s | 10:44 |
| gogeta | jigpe: 384kbps is 30kb | 10:44 |
| gogeta | roughly | 10:45 |
| gogeta | 32kb | 10:45 |
| grawity | gogeta: kb or kB? | 10:45 |
| gogeta | kB | 10:45 |
| phoenixandthor | really doesn't matter | 10:45 |
| gogeta | that would be your uplaod speed | 10:45 |
| grawity | 384 kbps = 48 kB/s, says Google. | 10:45 |
| phoenixandthor | I don't think anything else uses the letter kb | 10:45 |
| gogeta | or download if you slow | 10:45 |

| vikas | Hi, can anyone tell me that if LILO boot manager does not find the 1st kernel to boot, will it go to the next one in the list? | 11:01 |
| frogzoo | no, lilo's pretty primitive | 11:01 |
| vikas | is there any boot loader that will go to the next kernel to boot if it fails to find the first in the list ? | 11:02 |
| phoenixandthor | Grub maybe | 11:02 |
| vikas | i tried grub but that fails too | 11:02 |
| indus | vikas: very interesting | 11:03 |
| vikas | any other suggestions ? | 11:03 |
| vikas | indus, hi | 11:03 |
| indus | vikas: i would say aks the grub mailing list if this can be done | 11:03 |
| indus | #grub | 11:03 |
| Sephiroth1 | thanks for your replies everyone ... final question: what program to use to run windows appz in linux, and how to install and what is its dependencies? | 11:04 |
| indus | Sephiroth1: wine | 11:04 |
| vikas | indus, mailing list, i have never used before, please asist me | 11:04 |

| indus | vikas: go to the grub website and see their contact or devel lists | 11:06 |
| xps9000 | Vikas, in the /boot/grub/menu.lst, you should be presented with a list, which says something like "default=0 # boot first item by default" then it has a fallback if that fails. | 11:07 |

| vikas | indus, we dont want client to use keyboard, hence if they just push in SD card the boot manager will find it and boot from it, once all is done they will simply push out the SD card and the machine will boot from windows | 11:11 |
| moymoy | Inertially: ROFL .. are you reading the "is your son a computer hacker" page? | 11:11 |

| Inertially | watched the screen savers | 11:12 |
| vikas | indus, thanks i will do that | 11:12 |
| sipior | vikas: easier perhaps to simply configure the machines to boot from the SD card first. if one is not present, the system defaults to the normal boot. | 11:12 |
| indus | vikas: hmm i think sipior is correct ,sd card boot is still not normal boot and counted as removable device | 11:13 |
| indus | vikas: change boot entry 1st one to sd? | 11:13 |
| vikas | sipior, the bad news is it doesnt work. When i configure BIOS to boot SD card as 1st bootable device. Next time when it reboot and if it doesnt find SD card it switches HD as 1st bood device | 11:14 |

| vikas | indus, sipior i guess yes a BIOS bug but now i have no solution for this problem, i thought GRUB might helped me but it doesnt | 11:19 |

| indus | vikas: also,ask mobo makers for a patch | 11:20 |
| vikas | indus, I did tried that, i am using ASUS EeeBox B202, but to no avail | 11:21 |

| psycho_oreos | th0r, yeah I'm trying to get it all working step by step, I followed an older guide which lead me into connection refused by Xvnc.. so I got that to work and now its the checkered plate background lol | 11:50 |
| nexsja | ....i forgot to ask what's "&" for after the restart? :< | 11:50 |
| psycho_oreos | runs the process in background | 11:50 |
| nexsja | and gdm didn't even restart. it hang up. had to login from the terminal and start gdm manually :< | 11:50 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: just checked...that xstartup script is created the first time you run vncserver. Try replacing the twm with gdm...or better yet startxfce4....gdm is so heavy | 11:51 |
| psycho_oreos | th0r, startxfce4 brings up that xfce4's login menu? interesting :) thanks | 11:52 |

| ikanobori | jipsy: i...do..not..know..what...webcam you...are...using...what is..the...exact error you are... getting... in what...program? | 12:04 |
| bullgard4 | th0r: No luck. I booted the previous kernel, de-asserted 'Mute' in the Volume Control, set the fader to maximum. But the result is the same. | 12:04 |

| th0r | bullgard4: ok...was worth a shot. I am no audio expert...just thought that would be an easy first effort. | 12:05 |
| bullgard4 | th0r: Yes. Thank you for commenting. | 12:05 |
| ikanobori | jipsy: Then plain and simple, you can use a flash webcam service on the internet. | 12:06 |
| ikanobori | Pidgin does not *yet* support webcam chat in WLM-protocal because they keep changing it to lock out 3rd party software. | 12:06 |
| jipsy | what is that??shud i install that in the add/remove programs? | 12:07 |
| jipsy | got the link? | 12:07 |
| grawity | ikanobori: I thought Pidgin doesn't have webcam support _at all_? | 12:07 |
| ikanobori | grawity: Apparently it shows the message that it is not supported ‘yet’ :-) | 12:07 |
| jipsy | ohhh guru ikanobori teach me the ways of a webcam ^^ | 12:08 |
| ikanobori | jipsy: I do not know which services offer it, just that I once used one. | 12:08 |
| grawity | ikanobori: If I understand correctly, adding support for webcams and/or voice requires a lot of work, because Pidgin is essentially a GUI to the libpurple libs - and they must keep working without that GUI (on Finch, Meebo, etc). | 12:08 |
| indus | grawity: well,now its empathy's turn to address voice/video | 12:09 |
| ikanobori | I know, though WLM keeps changing it’s webcam protocol (which is a bigger hurdle to take) | 12:09 |
| jipsy | crap....is there anything i can install besyds pidgin | 12:09 |
| indus | it does support google chat i hear, but i cant get it to work. | 12:09 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: I can get you gnome...interested? | 12:09 |
| indus | jipsy: skype? | 12:10 |

| vikas | sorry video is not supported in any chat client on linux except skype | 12:11 |
| vikas | i suppose | 12:11 |
| indus | jipsy: but frankly i would recommend not to use it, development is dead | 12:11 |

| Athunye | Hello. Since the update to 2.6.28-14 some pages like yahoo.com, scrib.com and some other won't load. In karmic they do load and so with arch linux. | 12:14 |
| Athunye | Any ideas? | 12:14 |
| indus | sell your girls? | 12:14 |
| indus | jipsy: stick to tech talk, please | 12:14 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: no, vnc prompts for the password on first connection, then puts me right into the gnome desktop | 12:14 |
| grawity | indus: I wouldn't trust Skype. It's a pretty nice program, but ... | 12:14 |
| indus | grawity: i trust it. rest is FUD | 12:15 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: I just can't figure out how to change it to xfce4 | 12:15 |
| vikas | indus, i am sorry i am unaware of what jipsy really wants | 12:15 |
| psycho_oreos | th0r, sounds somewhat interesting I'll give it a try :) I'm using xfce4 desktop fyi :) | 12:15 |
| indus | grawity: but nvm its !off topic i guess | 12:15 |
| psycho_oreos | ahh dang oh well its a start I suppose | 12:15 |
| tmba | Hi, is there any way to set scripts in init.d to be run as a specific user (not root) upon boot?? | 12:15 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: yeah...so am I....but it insists on gnome in vnc | 12:15 |
| indus | iam excited about empathy being default in karmic, probably will do something about yahoo webcams etx, but i prefer encryption | 12:16 |
| jipsy | anyway thankz for the time guys | 12:16 |
| psycho_oreos | th0r, probably the way the package is to be built and xubuntu afterall is a branch of of ubuntu.. same with kubuntu, etc | 12:16 |
| grawity | indus: XMPP also supports encryption. | 12:16 |
| indus | i hear even the feds find it difficult to crack skype | 12:16 |
| vikas | tmba, you can run a script as a specified user in "Startup Application" but cant do it through init.d if i am not wrong | 12:16 |
| moDumass | +!automount | 12:16 |
| indus | grawity: not 256 bit surely not | 12:16 |
| moDumass | !automount | 12:16 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about automount | 12:16 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: no...in the past I had it working....will figure it out....eventually <smile> | 12:16 |
| grawity | indus: Even better. SSL with whaever you want :) | 12:17 |
| grawity | indus: Skype uses strong encryption, but it also depends heavily on security-by-obscurity. | 12:17 |
| indus | anyways, iam waiting for the easy questions | 12:17 |
| psycho_oreos | th0r, heh, so what was the method you got it to work with login? | 12:17 |
| grawity | indus: XMPP, on the other hand, is an open protocol, and uses widely used and tested security features. | 12:17 |
| psycho_oreos | I've tried /usr/sbin/gdm which still resulted to checkered background | 12:17 |
| WiZz3 | does skype work with jaunty ? | 12:17 |
| tmba | vikas: "Startup Applications" is not good enough, I need it before login. I'm thinking of doing it with sudo, but I'm sure theres a better way | 12:17 |
| psycho_oreos | that was before I started running Xvnc in verbose mode and under non-root account | 12:18 |
| indus | grawity: skype protocols are also much the same,but they implement it in a way we dont know i guess | 12:18 |
| th0r | psycho_oreos: this was first time for me running vncserver, so it asked me to define a password. I ran vncserver with 'vncserver :1' then access with 'vncviewer localhost:1' | 12:18 |
| aprilhare_ | hey | 12:18 |
| indus | grawity: but anyways i am waiting for a chap who was having windows bootmanager issues | 12:18 |
| grawity | indus: Skype protocol is so far unknown to anyone. (#ubuntu-offtopic) | 12:18 |
| indus | he disappeared | 12:18 |

| grom358 | does partimage support restore a partition image to partition of different size? | 12:19 |
| psycho_oreos | th0r, hmm interesting, so you're using vncserver instead of Xvnc | 12:19 |
| === Graviton_ is now known as Graviton | ||

| m4n1l4 | hm lol ^^ | 12:23 |
| m4n1l4 | cant wait that long | 12:23 |
| m4n1l4 | i cant install or burn anything | 12:23 |
| vikas | m4n1l4, best way is to loginto another tty and "rm -fr /tmp/*" | 12:23 |
| m4n1l4 | tty? | 12:23 |
| vikas | m4n1l4, if still its taking long time to respond a reboot will solve your probs | 12:24 |
| m4n1l4 | if i reboot now the tmp files dont get deleted | 12:24 |
| Dextorion | m4n1l4, ehehe. teletype, or Console | 12:24 |
| Trijntje | m4n1|4: ctrl + alt + F1 to log into a text only environment | 12:24 |
| m4n1l4 | ok | 12:25 |
| Trijntje | ctrl + alt + f7 to get back | 12:25 |
| Trijntje | remember that! :P | 12:25 |
| m4n1l4 | and then write sudo rm -fr /tmp/* | 12:25 |
| m4n1l4 | or what? | 12:25 |
| vikas | m4n1l4, yes | 12:25 |
| m4n1l4 | ok i will try this | 12:25 |
| Dr_Willis | be carefull with that command m4n1l4 dont make any typos... | 12:25 |
| psycho_oreos | th0r, lol I'm in a worse state compared to yours, I only got the terminal sitting inside the vnc | 12:25 |
| m4n1l4 | yep | 12:25 |
| [criipt] | How do I convert an ext4 to ext3 fs? | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: you installed vnc4server ? it defaults to using twm in its default .vnc/xstartup edit that file and make it run a window manager thats actually installed.. I perfer icewm for vnc sessions | 12:26 |
| m4n1l4 | when i do this, my active downloads, will they stop ? | 12:26 |
| m4n1l4 | i mean do i log out by doing this? | 12:26 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: it defaults to twm. even tho twm is not installed. :) | 12:26 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, yeah I did that, it won't work :) | 12:26 |
| Dextorion | m4n1l4, no | 12:27 |
| psycho_oreos | I've followed a guide from th0r | 12:27 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: you did force the vncserver to quit and restarted it? | 12:27 |
| vikas | [criipt], you can by formatting "mkfs.ext3 /dev/your_partition but this will delete all the data on that partition | 12:27 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: its easy to accidently start new vnc sessions by mistake. | 12:27 |
| dremits | hey i have setup lamp + tomcat and can access from another windows pc with ip address in browser but not with hostname. what do i need to do to allow access via hostame? | 12:27 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, yup, I've also installed vncserver which calls tightvncserver | 12:27 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: actually vnc4server and tightvnc both install a 'script' called vncserver | 12:27 |
| [criipt] | vikas, Thought so =( Just wanted to make sure, Thanks. | 12:27 |
| th0r | Dr_Willis: I tried that....it isn't working. I get gnome no matter what I put in that xstartup | 12:28 |
| vikas | [criipt], you are welcome | 12:28 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: you got somthing odd then.. I always have to explicatly tell it to use gnome-session/ | 12:28 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, weird, for some reason vnc4server calls Xvnc and vncserver calls tightvncserver lol | 12:28 |
| psycho_oreos | I've added /usr/sbin/gdm but no dice | 12:28 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: having both installed.. might be goofing up things. I use vnc4server all the time. and i call it with vncserver command | 12:29 |
| === aprilhare_ is now known as aprilhare | ||
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: there are wayt to get vnc to spawn, show gdm as needed... | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: which may or may be what you want. | 12:29 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, yeah if I could get it to do that or better yet share the same desktop it'll be ideal | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: i normally (on a clean install) install vnc4server, run vncserver first time.. it sets up the vncserver password and makes the .vnc/ xstartup I then kill the vncserver with 'vncserver -kill :1' and edit the xstartup as i want. | 12:30 |
| psycho_oreos | right now I've followed the guides but they are outdated and it didn't work as expected, I had to muck around to get some parts working | 12:30 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: for shareing the 'same' desktop as seen locally you use x11vnc or the gnome vnc feature.. Not vnc4server or tightvnc | 12:30 |
| === iGuilherme is now known as verify | ||
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: i always want to have a 'hidden/seperate' desktop for my vnc sessions. | 12:31 |
| === verify is now known as iGuilherme | ||
| th0r | Dr_Willis: that is what I did, but I can't get xfce to run...only gnome | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: vnc is a very.. flexiable and powerfull tool. :) it can do things on linux that windows users only dream of. | 12:31 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, ahh that'll be another way :) | 12:31 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: thats odd... let me fire up my other box. | 12:31 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, hate to be frank but I'm using xubuntu :) | 12:32 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: it shouldent matter. | 12:32 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, that's what I would have thought, yet for some reason I'm not getting anywhere | 12:32 |
| tmba | vikas: found it.. use su to run command as a specific user | 12:32 |
| Dr_Willis | vnc4server should run whatever is in /home/username/.vnc/xstartup you having BOTh vnc4server and tightvnc installed may be the issue | 12:32 |
| alle | #ubuntu-it | 12:33 |
| vikas | tmba yes you can run a command as a specific user by su but not in init.d | 12:33 |
| vikas | tmba, can you? | 12:33 |
| psycho_oreos | they both still call upon the same xstartup and I kill one completely (via pkill and double-checked it via lsof -i) | 12:33 |
| psycho_oreos | hmm | 12:33 |
| dremits | hey i have setup a lamp + tomcat server and can access from another windows pc with ip address in browser but not with hostname. what do i need to do to allow access via hostame? | 12:33 |
| moDumass | hmm, google wont help[ | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | kill them with vncserver -kill :1 perhaps. | 12:34 |
| moDumass | has anyone had issues with automounting ntfs drives | 12:34 |
| moDumass | ? | 12:34 |
| Dr_Willis | moDumass: only when windows dosent cleanly unmount them | 12:34 |
| tmba | vikas: haven't tried that yet.. :) I thought I could just put the 'su whoever -l -c command' inside my script that is run in init.d | 12:34 |
| vikas | moDumass, no i didnt had any probs mounting ntfs | 12:34 |
| === laptop is now known as Guest33349 | ||
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. whats the command to launch the xfce desktop.. :) i forget.. | 12:35 |
| jrib | tmba: you should be ablo to just use cron with @reboot as the time | 12:35 |
| Dr_Willis | editing my vnc/xstartup now to test it. | 12:35 |
| moDumass | Dr_Willis, this ones never seen windows on my machine, and i was copying data from the hdd when it threw its toys | 12:35 |
| vikas | tmba, ''su whoever -l -c command' needs a password of that user, so if you put in init.d who will provide password at boot time? | 12:35 |
| moDumass | and now - i cannot mount | 12:35 |
| moDumass | Dr_Willis, is there any way to safely unmount the drive? | 12:36 |
| thomg | moDumass did you sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g already? | 12:36 |
| tmba | vikas: you don't seem to need passwd for user, not if you're root as far as I've seen. And I would guess those scripts are run as root | 12:36 |
| moDumass | thomg yeh ages ago, i have multiple ntfs drives on a nas | 12:37 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, ok I removed tightvncserver, so vncserver now calls Xvnc instead but no dice :) | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | moDumass: check dmesg for any error messages.. you could alwyas just reboot to force it to unmount.. it could be a bad drive issue also.. | 12:37 |
| Kennie | you can configure sudo to not ask a password with the sudoers file | 12:37 |
| janisozaur | how can i list packages delivered by repository? or other way round - how do i find which repositories deliver the package? | 12:37 |
| psycho_oreos | I think startxfce4 starts up xfce | 12:37 |
| tmba | jrib: nice suggestion btw! | 12:37 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: how are you showing that vncserver calls Xvnc? | 12:37 |
| vikas | tmba, you have a point, i havent tried that, i assume it will run then. | 12:37 |
| thomg | moDumass, why are you still using NTFS? I'd switch to ext3, it's more reliable. | 12:37 |
| indus | janisozaur: hello | 12:37 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, not getting it to show, just lsof -i shows which process is running and which ports its listening to | 12:37 |
| indus | janisozaur: filter by repo? | 12:38 |
| janisozaur | indus: hello. using new gateway now :) | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: interesting - i THINK the issue is with startxfce4 command/script | 12:38 |
| indus | janisozaur: which one\ | 12:38 |
| indus | janisozaur: i need a refresh | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: startxxfce4 is like 'startx' it tries to spawn its own X session.. you dont need that for vnc.. | 12:38 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: im testing this by running 'startxfce4' in the vnc session 'teminal' I SEEm to recall this issue befor. | 12:38 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, well I dunno, th0r seems to be in better luck at getting gdm login.. I'm stuck with just a logged in terminal after entering my password for vnc session | 12:38 |
| janisozaur | indus: i mean i've reinstalled system on my gateway, it's running 9.04 and it has lots of space now | 12:39 |
| moDumass | thomg - because in linux we have both worlds, and for this drive its NTFS - its the drive the drifts from machine to machine | 12:39 |
| indus | kk | 12:39 |
| janisozaur | indus: not that much important anyway :P | 12:39 |
| indus | janisozaur: dobrzi :) | 12:39 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, tried /usr/sbin/gdm which does nothing.. still spawning terminal | 12:39 |
| moDumass | Dr_Willis, please dont let it be a bad drive, its pretty new | 12:39 |
| janisozaur | indus: :D | 12:39 |
| indus | moDumass: what u trying to do? | 12:39 |
| thomg | moDumass truth, as much as I may dislike it. i'm going to bed now, i hope the people in here help you with your driver issue. | 12:40 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: run 'startxfce4' from that terminal.. you will see what i am talking about. | 12:40 |
| janisozaur | indus: where are you from? gosh, this is going OT... | 12:40 |
| moDumass | thomg, haha, thaks anyway | 12:40 |
| moDumass | indus, i was using a ntfs external terabyte usb drive and it will no longer automount | 12:40 |
| vikas | moDumass, check your /etc/fstab | 12:41 |
| geirha | psycho_oreos: Haven't followed your case here, but you might find !freenx to be easier and faster than vnc | 12:41 |
| dremits | >hey i have setup lamp + tomcat and can access from another windows pc with ip address in browser but not with hostname. what do i need to do to allow access via hostame? | 12:41 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: psycho_oreos i recall having to basically make the xstartup script run the 'parts' of xfce4 thats needed.. the xfce4 'scripts' where trying to be too smart. and do things on their own.. that dident work with vnc | 12:41 |
| moDumass | indus, and vicas, random, i just tried to use it on my eepc and it automounted immediately | 12:41 |
| psycho_oreos | geirha, ahh thanks, that was the other name of the tool that was mentioned in another chan back awhile ago along with synergy | 12:42 |
| vikas | moDumass, what do you mean by automount? is it during boot time or by just clicking that drive on nautilus ? | 12:42 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, yeah I can see that it tries to use :0.0 .. the same as startx trying to start on :0 but I mean even with gdm login and then dropping me into another session is not possible | 12:43 |
| moDumass | indus, and vicas, i have unmounted on laptop and re pluged into my main machine | 12:43 |
| moDumass | doesnt see it | 12:43 |
| moDumass | vikas, stick usb male into usb female on machine, and it usually open up, but not anymore | 12:43 |
| moDumass | not on my main machine | 12:43 |
| moDumass | will do it on my laptop though | 12:43 |

| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, cool thanks, in the meantime I'm using x11vnc.. I'll get freenx working and those will act as backups :) | 12:49 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: i copied that xinitrc script to one in .vnc/xfce_vnc_startup then started cutting out parts. :) | 12:50 |
| moDumass | vikas, media_automount was ticked | 12:50 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: my hacked script --> /etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc | 12:50 |

| psycho_oreos | s/llnes/lines | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: yes.. as i said.. it tries to do so much.. i think it breaks things. | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: all it really needs to do is start the xfce window manager, and panel, and a few otehr bits.. like at the bottom of my example. | 12:53 |
| raziel | i tried the command ''asoundconf set-default-card Intel'' but my default sound card is not changing, any other way to do this? | 12:53 |

| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: its sort of replacing the whole 'startx' script. | 12:54 |

| === baskingshark is now known as paul68 | ||
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: yea.. wich is a little silly in ways.. 'startkde' dosent replace startx. it gets called by it basically. | 12:55 |
| indus | moDumass: and what is on that disk? | 12:55 |
| vikas | moDumass, check this http://paste.ubuntu.com/238973/ | 12:55 |

| moDumass | indus http://pastebin.com/m60fedf4c | 12:55 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: in theory from the console you can do 'startxfce' instead of startx and get xfce desktop I recall. | 12:55 |
| dremits | wget http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/webadmin/webmin_1.470_all.deb | 12:55 |

| moDumass | its a veriety of stuff, media, blender files, images, music, its a terabyte drive | 12:55 |

| indus | moDumass: i mean sdb | 12:56 |
| keglevich | anyone can recommend me a better option for webmail than "squirrelmaiL" ? | 12:56 |

| moDumass | vikas, those are all pre ticked, thanks though | 12:56 |

| grawity | keglevich: SquirrelMail :) and RoundCube and Horde IMP. | 12:56 |
| indus | moDumass: ill start with an easy method,right click on gnome panel,add the applet mount devices | 12:57 |
| keglevich | grawity: which is your favorite? | 12:57 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: hmm.. that google hit.. seems to be doing what we are trying and it dident work for us. :) lol | 12:57 |
| grawity | keglevich: I use a command-line client. But, RoundCube is the prettiest (http://roundcube.net/) and Horde IMP has many features (http://www.horde.org/imp/) | 12:57 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, gonna try that right now lol, at least with remote control I won't need to move between my machines | 12:58 |
| keglevich | grawity: thanks, I'll check them out | 12:58 |
| moDumass | indus done | 12:58 |
| moDumass | its not one of the options | 12:58 |

| paul68 | Hi , is there a way that I can hide towards my boss to which internet sites I am surfing during office hours? | 12:59 |
| Dr_Willis | psycho_oreos: for 2 machines sitting next to each other with monttors. that syngery program is very very handy | 12:59 |
| indus | moDumass: ok i ask you to restart your pc,unplug usb, after it boots again,plug it in | 13:00 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, ahh I have a proper kvm for that :) but my other xubuntu boxens are not on the table :) I have 4 desktops and 2 laptops lol | 13:00 |
| moDumass | indus, yeh that works, but thats windows | 13:00 |
| moDumass | indus, for you though, il do it | 13:00 |
| indus | moDumass: no i mean plug it in linux | 13:00 |
| grawity | paul68: You could use a proxy server. Tor may work (but it's slow). Or if you can keep your home PC on during the day, you could use it as a proxy. | 13:00 |
| indus | moDumass: once you boot ubuntu, plug that in again | 13:01 |
| moDumass | indus, sorry thats what i meant, having to do that is so windows | 13:01 |

| indus | moDumass: but now you dont see it? | 13:02 |
| psycho_oreos | Dr_Willis, hardly had much of a beef with mine.. probably because I forked out heaps of money for it.. nonetheless I only use k+m+s(sound) features, I still have the monitors hooked up to their own respective boxens | 13:02 |

| jrib | chilli0: vb? Like Visual Basic? | 13:19 |
| chilli0 | Yes jrib | 13:19 |
| erUSUL | chilli0: mono supports VB.net | 13:20 |
| chilli0 | Sweet ill look into it , thanks. | 13:20 |
| KreatureKaos | testing python sockets | 13:20 |
| chilli0 | erUSUL: will it work with just .vb ? | 13:20 |
| erUSUL | chilli0: no | 13:20 |
| jrib | chilli0: you should check out Gambas as well | 13:20 |
| chilli0 | oh. ok. | 13:20 |
| erUSUL | chilli0: for something similar to VB 6 look into gambas | 13:20 |
| erUSUL | !info gambas2 | 13:21 |
| ubottu | gambas2 (source: gambas2): Complete visual development environment for Gambas. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.8.2-1build1 (jaunty), package size 5 kB, installed size 32 kB | 13:21 |
| chilli0 | But its not the vb programing language ? | 13:21 |
| chilli0 | ( i need vb for school thing. | 13:21 |
| erUSUL | chilli0: its basic it is visual but is not the same as the one from M$ | 13:21 |
| chilli0 | Oh =[ | 13:21 |
| erUSUL | !virtualizers | chilli0 | 13:21 |
| ubottu | chilli0: 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 | 13:21 |
| chilli0 | Yeh i know. | 13:22 |
| jrib | chilli0: ask your professor about it. He may have no problem with you using something like Gambas if you're willing to do a little extra work on your own | 13:22 |
| chilli0 | I shall do. | 13:22 |
| shooree | what's the command for listing all packages of a certain name that are on the system, with regards to whether they are installed or not? | 13:23 |

| shooree | guys, is there anyone who could spend some time helping me get my gfx on track? I installed 185.18.29, and all seemed to go well. But upon gdm restart things went kablooey. Now I can't find a way to revert to the 180.XX driver, as jockey seems to not respond anymore | 13:53 |
| Alvinware | To my experience, i'm using my notebook to run bittorrent, and ed2k/kad, and those made the hard disk really hot under windows some setting (i supposed), then after about a year, my hard disk corrupted, i think using a not movable/pen drive-like/sshd was a better choice. | 13:53 |
| indus | shooree: how did u install the 185 driver | 13:54 |
| shooree | also I get this message when I run Xserver configuration: "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server. " | 13:54 |
| danbhfive | shooree: how did you install that? Is it available on jaunty? | 13:54 |
| shooree | indus: through d/l from nvidia.com | 13:54 |
| indus | shooree: no wonder its messed up | 13:54 |
| shooree | indus: I believe that the problem lies in another thing | 13:54 |
| indus | shooree: first you need to locate the uninstaller script and remove tbat | 13:54 |
| Alvinware | shoore, under hardware drivers. | 13:54 |
| zoffix | I'm using one from nvidia.com because the one in the repos was messed up..... | 13:54 |
| kbp | radeon: for security reason, ppl usually just allow devices that has mac address in the approved list in router. | 13:54 |

| shooree | indus: how would I go about doing that? | 13:55 |
| radoen | kbp, no mac lock on my net | 13:55 |
| indus | shooree: remove that driver, then try direct install from synaptic,jockey hasnt worked for me ever | 13:55 |
| diddy | Does anybody know whether there is a channel for Linux certification or not? | 13:55 |
| radoen | *no mac restriction | 13:55 |
| indus | shooree: well i believe its as simple as sh uninstall ./nvida...sh | 13:55 |
| shooree | indus: synaptic reports the old 180 driver still installed | 13:55 |
| indus | shooree: but now i forgot that step | 13:55 |

| janisozaur | Kingsy101: follow the rest of howto | 14:07 |
| iddo | /part | 14:07 |
| gandalfcome | Alvinware: yes. it is formated with ext3 | 14:07 |
| Kingsy101 | oh ok, so thats it the script has been run ? | 14:07 |
| shooree | indus: it won't uninstall that way | 14:07 |
| kbp | pwizard88: repositories? | 14:07 |
| indus | shooree: what way? | 14:07 |
| bcpeters | ok, echo $TERM in screen gives: screen-256color-bce, but i cannot find where this is defined. It's not in .bashrc, not in .Xdefaults, not in .screenrc. My vim will display 256 colors in screen with xterm, it will display color but no 256 color in just xterm, and it will display absolutely no color in urxvt with or without screen. Any ideas? | 14:07 |
| indus | shooree: did u uninstall it? | 14:07 |
| shooree | indus: by "sh nvidia,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, uninstall" | 14:07 |
| pwizard88 | Do I have to configure aptitude to accept alphanumeric symbols in package names in Jaunty? | 14:07 |
| Alvinware | gandalfcome, have you checked the Users and Groups, under your Username Permission tab? | 14:07 |
| Kingsy101 | janisozaur - how do you run Epiphany for example ? | 14:07 |
| chaosphere | i kind of messed up ntfs-3g. When i plug in an external disk that is ntfs-formatted i get the error 'unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block device.' from the automounter. What is the default owner and access rights for /bin/ntfs-3g? | 14:07 |
| indus | shooree: well,did u type the package name correctly? | 14:08 |
| legend2440 | shooree: the command is sudo sh NVIDIA* --uninstall | 14:08 |
| indus | shooree: did u cd into the folder where that package is | 14:08 |
| shooree | indus: yes | 14:08 |
| GilJ | Hey guys, I was trying to install the "Wicd network manager" but it says it conflicts with other packages and that I need to use the synaptic package manager, how do I use that one though?:) | 14:08 |
| shooree | indus: oh | 14:08 |
| gandalfcome | Alvinware: It copies for a while and then stops I use the arv flags on rsync. | 14:08 |
| shooree | indus: I didn't add the dashes | 14:08 |
| shooree | damn | 14:08 |
| shooree | DAMN | 14:08 |
| richardcavell | GilJ: It's under System then Administration > menus | 14:08 |
| shooree | brb :) | 14:08 |
| indus | shooree: ya sorry my mistake | 14:08 |
| shooree | indus: no, its mine | 14:08 |
| arti | hallo | 14:08 |
| indus | shooree: thats all | 14:08 |
| janisozaur | Kingsy101: alt-f2 epiphany, though i doubt that you want to change your browser. i think it should be simillar for FX | 14:08 |
| indus | shooree: i didnt give you the dashes | 14:08 |
| GilJ | richardcavell Yeah I know, but how do i solve the part where they conflict?:) | 14:09 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: does it truly stop or is it just paused? | 14:09 |
| arti | jeman auf deutsch | 14:09 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: It might be thinking | 14:09 |
| janisozaur | !de | arti | 14:09 |

| gandalfcome | richardcavell: it dies with rsync code 30 | 14:09 |
| richardcavell | GilJ: well for starters always use synaptic | 14:09 |
| indus | richardcavell: ya thinking:) | 14:09 |
| GilJ | richardcavell Why's that? | 14:09 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: okay. What's the code mean? Have you looked it up? | 14:10 |
| Kingsy101 | janisozaur - what I mean is, on the howto, it says to run that script and then do something in epiphany .. what is that? | 14:10 |
| janisozaur | i'm using several PPAs, i'd like to install and maintain pidgin from a very specific PPA, is it possible with apt-pinning or in some other way? having read man apt_preferences i know it is possible to track packages based on their "origin", though it expects an internet address, but all PPAs originate in ppa.launchpad.net. The most convenient would be to use "Origin:" tag from Release file, though it seems such behaviour is not supported | 14:10 |
| richardcavell | GilJ: what package are you trying to install and with what does it conflict? | 14:10 |
| pwizard88 | kbp: I have enabled the necessary repositories | 14:10 |
| indus | i dont like ppa, cant really trust them | 14:10 |
| gandalfcome | richardcavell: its a timeout. the disk is barely usable afterwards. Its a new disk | 14:10 |
| janisozaur | Kingsy101: epiphany is a web browser, similar to firefox (i think they shate some of the code base actually, epiphany recently got XPI support) | 14:10 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: are you damn sure it's a good disk? I had similar problems and my drive was faulty | 14:11 |
| janisozaur | Kingsy101: so i'd just disregard "epiphany" and thought of it as a firefox ;) | 14:11 |
| GilJ | richardcavell "wicd" via Add/Remove applications, doesnt say what software it conflicts with though. And when I search for the wicd package in the Synaptic Package Manager it doesn't find the package | 14:11 |
| bin1010 | morning all | 14:11 |
| richardcavell | indus: on Mac it's pretty necessary to use Mactel packages | 14:11 |
| richardcavell | indus: from the Mactel PPA | 14:11 |
| kbp | pwizard88: you can go to packages.ubuntu.com and download g++ | 14:11 |
| datta | can anyone tell me why there might be problem with going to bbc and listening to their news (not live ones)? | 14:11 |
| Lareth | can someone tell me the command that starts the gui for changing keyboard layouts please? | 14:11 |
| gandalfcome | richardcavell: its a new drive. It works for a while and then gives me code 30. but only if copying | 14:11 |
| janisozaur | indus: well, they can get pretty tricky, but you should be able to resolve your problems in some humane way, not by manually downloading and installing packages | 14:12 |
| indus | datta: they use flash? | 14:12 |
| bazhang | datta, got a link | 14:12 |
| datta | after i listen to one, it says "I am Alive!" and shows me this really annoying message | 14:12 |
| sebsebseb | datta: the radio? | 14:12 |
| === tonii_ is now known as tonii | ||
| indus | janisozaur: ya of course i agree on that one, btw, i installed unetbootin like that, cos usb-creator is really bad | 14:12 |
| richardcavell | GilJ: mate, I can see wicd in universe | 14:12 |
| datta | i listened to one half hour program from http://www.bbc.co.uk/ now it's showing that message in that page i can't even get the popup window | 14:12 |
| indus | iam going to make a request/wishlist to make unetbootin in main instead of usb-creator | 14:13 |
| pwizard88 | kbp: But why is apt-get behaving like this :( | 14:13 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: well, like I said, I've only ever had that kind of error twice. Both times it was because the drive was faulty | 14:13 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: have you tried something like copying a huge file just to see if it works? | 14:13 |
| indus | pwizard88: can i get a ascreenshot of this termina? | 14:13 |
| janisozaur | indus: just today i've found out that due to some conflicts between version, my system uninstalled pidgin... | 14:13 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Ok, how should I email it to you/ | 14:13 |
| gandalfcome | richardcavell: I copied several huge files. It works for a while and then crashes | 14:13 |
| indus | !paste | pwizard88 | 14:13 |

| bin1010 | I am drawing a blank on this, I am trying to use tar as a backup and I have sudo tar cpzf $BACKUP_DIR/$BACKUP_FILE --exclude=/proc --exclude=/lost+found --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/mnt --exclude=/sys / . it works great except I get all caches and trash, how do I exclude those, is there a fancy way to get skip all caches and trash no matter where they show up? | 14:13 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: you mean it just times out? Does the drive just keep spinning and nothing happens? | 14:14 |
| Alvinware | gandalfcome, search your problem in any search engine will do. | 14:14 |
| kbp | pwizard88: the given error means it cant find from repositories... | 14:14 |
| datta | also i changed the browsers and i use vlc to play my programs, so is it a problem with vlc? | 14:14 |
| janisozaur | bin1010: how can you tell cache from regular file? | 14:14 |
| GilJ | richardcavell It doesn't list packages for me =/ | 14:14 |
| Alvinware | datta, vlc is great! | 14:14 |
| gandalfcome | Alvinware: you don't think I did this already. I wouldn't be asking for help here if I could just find it online. | 14:14 |
| indus | pwizard88: do u have synaptic gui? | 14:14 |
| richardcavell | GilJ: do you have universe selected? On the left side, have you clicked "All"? I can see it right here in my synaptic | 14:15 |
| datta | Alvinware i know vlc is great but why does it say that annoying message? | 14:15 |
| Alvinware | datta, what's the message? | 14:15 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Yes | 14:15 |
| datta | "I am Alive! | 14:15 |
| GilJ | richardcavell Sections > All and then Quick Search, no results | 14:15 |
| kbp | vlc froze in hardy alot of time | 14:15 |
| indus | pwizard88: why dont you just search for g++ there | 14:15 |
| syntax_ | Is it really worth useing 64 bit ubuntu linux..Im on a quad core, 4 gigs of ram...Right now im on a 32 bit tho | 14:15 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Ok, I will do that | 14:15 |
| indus | !info g++ | 14:16 |
| ubottu | g++ (source: gcc-defaults (1.78ubuntu1)): The GNU C++ compiler. In component main, is optional. Version 4:4.3.3-1ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 1 kB, installed size 40 kB | 14:16 |
| bin1010 | janisozaur: I guess the cache directories, but exclude /cache doesnt seem to work | 14:16 |
| richardcavell | GilJ: well mate I can see it right here, in Universe | 14:16 |
| richardcavell | wicd | 14:16 |
| datta | it shows in the html page after i listened to one program. i have to log out and then log back in to play the next one or else it doesn't work | 14:16 |
| richardcavell | syntax_: if it ain't broke don't fix it | 14:16 |
| datta | also i get an error message when i first try to play it in a popup in opera | 14:16 |
| Alvinware | gandalfcome, if some one in here know, they'll help you out, if not, just try to use other menthod, try all. | 14:16 |
| indus | pwizard88: see? | 14:17 |
| syntax_ | k thx | 14:17 |
| gandalfcome | Alvinware: what other method? | 14:17 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: can you try it in a different operating system? rsync is pretty reliable. If your drive's acting that way, then your drive is broken | 14:17 |
| janisozaur | bin1010: you provide a path and /cache is absolute, not relative. i'd use find (in tandem with grep perhaps) to filter what needs to be packed | 14:17 |
| datta | please anyone try to go to bbc's site and did anyone get any problem? | 14:17 |
| gandalfcome | I only have linux on my system | 14:17 |
| janisozaur | bin1010: find has much more powerful options regarding file search | 14:17 |
| Alvinware | gandalfcome, What're you doing with your new hard disk, back-up? | 14:17 |
| gandalfcome | richardcavell: I only have linux on my system | 14:17 |
| indus | datta: is this flash ? | 14:18 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Can't find it in the GUI either, I guess I need to enable some other repositories? | 14:18 |
| datta | indus: it is not problem with flash, it is a realplayer file | 14:18 |
| gandalfcome | Alvinware: copying data from my old drive to the new one. | 14:18 |
| indus | pwizard88: no you dont, aer you on live cd? | 14:18 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: well have you tried copying large files without using rsync? Just use cp or drag them within the file manager | 14:18 |
| pwizard88 | indus: No | 14:18 |
| indus | datta: ok real media dont expect it to play,it sucks | 14:18 |
| janisozaur | bin1010: alternatively, i'd code some script (python, perl, ruby, whatever) to pick what i want to be picked for archive | 14:18 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Installed from usb stick using unetbootin | 14:18 |
| indus | pwizard88: which version of ubuntu | 14:18 |
| pwizard88 | indus: 9.04 | 14:18 |
| bazhang | indus, that is not so, rm plays fine | 14:18 |
| indus | pwizard88: hmmmmm | 14:19 |
| datta | indus then what should i use? they dont have any other player | 14:19 |
| bazhang | datta, you can install realplayer from their site | 14:19 |
| indus | bazhang: no it doesnt,he is talking about real video, who uses that non sense anyway | 14:19 |
| len | hi, could anyone tell me if ubuntu 9.04's xorg.conf had any modification? mine only have 20 lines | 14:19 |
| gandalfcome | richardcavell: I've copied a few GBs worth of data before it does that. | 14:19 |
| lowki | how do i blacklist a module? | 14:19 |
| bazhang | indus, that is simply not correct. | 14:19 |
| indus | bazhang: i too had problems with bbc site so i stopped going there, totem plugin struggles with it | 14:19 |
| bazhang | indus, both audio and video work just fine. | 14:19 |
| indus | bazhang: aah maybe it smy 64 bit system them | 14:20 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: but you're saying it happens with rsync and also without rsync? | 14:20 |
| Alvinware | datta, have you installed the realplayer? | 14:20 |
| datta | Alvinware, yes i do | 14:20 |
| indus | i just dislike that real standard | 14:20 |
| gandalfcome | richardcavell: I think I tried without rsync, but then switched to rsync because I didnt want to copy the same stuff over and over again | 14:20 |
| indus | bazhang: could you now try bbc site and check? | 14:20 |
| len | have xorg.conf been modified? mine only have 20 lines and I cant find keyboard opt | 14:21 |
| Alvinware | datta, Do you mean in firefox that it stop working? | 14:21 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Any suggestions? You want the screenshot still? | 14:21 |
| datta | yes Alvinware | 14:21 |
| indus | pwizard88: how many packages do synaptic list for install? | 14:21 |
| Alvinware | the easier thing is to remove/disable the vlc plug-in in firefox. | 14:22 |
| Alvinware | datta. | 14:22 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: but I'm saying does it time out when you're not using rsync? | 14:22 |
| shivek | I'm the only user on my computer and I don't want it to ask password each time I log on.Please help ! | 14:22 |
| datta | all right going to try that then thank you all | 14:22 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: do it as a test. tar your whole home directory or something like that | 14:22 |
| richardcavell | gandalfcome: or create a 1 gig file and copy it ten times | 14:23 |
| lorenzosu | Is there a way to control the internal wifi card of a laptop via software? The "button" on my laptop is buggy with ubuntu. | 14:23 |
| legend2440 | !blacklist | lowki | 14:23 |
| ubottu | lowki: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add « blacklist <modulename> » to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type « sudo update-initramfs -u » | 14:23 |
| pwizard88 | indus: How do I see that? | 14:23 |
| Alvinware | datta, complicated is to try the vlc setting, or maybe, your internet speed is slow, or the server is visited by so many clients. | 14:23 |
| indus | pwizard88: its atextreme bottom of synatic to left side | 14:24 |
| chaosphere | i kind of messed up ntfs-3g. When i plug in an external disk that is ntfs-formatted i get the error 'unprivileged user can not mount NTFS block device.' from the automounter. What is the default owner and access rights for /bin/ntfs-3g? | 14:24 |
| pwizard88 | indus: 0 to install/upgrade | 14:25 |
| indus | pwizard88: there will be a line saying 25000 packages listed , then the rest | 14:25 |
| grawity | chaosphere: /bin/ntfs-3g is 0755. But first check if you don't have that disk in /etc/fstab | 14:25 |
| Alvinware | one thing is that to me vlc maybe lack of the buffering, and connection setting, but realplayer do. | 14:26 |
| chaosphere | grawity: i have that disk in /etc/fstab. But should'n that be irrelevant for automounter? | 14:26 |
| pwizard88 | indus: 1174 listed, 1174 installed, 0 to install/upgrade, 0 broken.... | 14:26 |
| pwizard88 | indus: 0 to remove | 14:26 |
| indus | pwizard88: ok do u have internet> yes u need to enable repositories | 14:27 |
| grawity | chaosphere: If the disk is in /etc/fstab, the automounter will use those settings. | 14:27 |
| indus | pwizard88: first and foremost, do a sudo apt-get update | 14:27 |
| grawity | chaosphere: And users cannot mount media if it doesn't have 'user' option on fstab. | 14:27 |
| pwizard88 | indus: I did that, but it worked partially with some hashsum's not matching errors | 14:27 |
| richardcavell | How many packages does everyone have installed? I have 1378 | 14:27 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Wait, I will give you the exact error message | 14:27 |
| grawity | chaosphere: And that option kinda breaks ntfs-3g sometimes... | 14:27 |
| grawity | chaosphere: If you just want to set the default umask for automounted devices, that can be done in gconf-editor. | 14:28 |
| chaosphere | grawity: ok i'll give it a try and remove the line from /etc/fstab. btw. ntfs-3g is owned by root, does it? | 14:28 |
| lowki | ubottu: thanks | 14:29 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 14:29 |
| grawity | chaosphere: yes; 0755 / root / root. | 14:29 |
| chaosphere | grawity: ok thanks | 14:29 |
| talin | hello. does ubuntu server come with a GUI? | 14:29 |
| * richardcavell is going to play Half-Life now | 14:29 | |
| lstarnes | talin: no | 14:29 |
| talin | i.e. x.org | 14:29 |
| richardcavell | talin: nope | 14:29 |
| Alvinware | The best way to solve any human intended/unintended errors was to always remember what's those steps/settings that you have done before the error occuring. | 14:30 |
| lstarnes | talin: you can install a GUI after installing the server | 14:30 |
| lstarnes | talin: ubuntu server supports all of the packages used by the desktop edition and uses the same repositories | 14:30 |
| tonii | GUI is quite useless for server as you mostly configure it remotely via ssh | 14:30 |
| kbp | talin: gnome-desktop-core is recommeded | 14:31 |
| indus | pwizard88: hi what is the status | 14:31 |
| pwizard88 | indus: http://pastebin.com/me3492f2 | 14:31 |
| chaosphere | grawity: ok without having this disk in /etc/fstab mouting it works just fine. Had it like this: UUID=xxx /media/usbDisk ntfs-3g defaults 0 0 | 14:31 |
| pwizard88 | indus: This is the sudo apt-get update output, contains some hashsums mismatch error messages at the end | 14:32 |
| janisozaur | ahh, the PPA-based apt-pinning solved now. turns out that i was using "Pin: origin ..." instead of "Pin: release o=<Origin tag from Release file>" if anybody wants to know. | 14:32 |
| indus | pwizard88: seems like some repos are down.could you disable some repos like backports ,then try | 14:32 |
| Alvinware | pwizard88, hashsums error, network/internet problem? | 14:32 |
| simosx | I have four primary partitions and some free space (in primary partition area). Is it possible with Linux to move that free area inside the Extended partition? Do I need to resort to things like Partition Magic? | 14:32 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Ok | 14:32 |
| pwizard88 | Alvinware: could be, my internet connect is lousy | 14:33 |
| indus | pwizard88: try changing the mirror to main server for now | 14:33 |
| d8sd9s | Hi! Will next debian release be shipped with Gnome 2.28 because of the freeze in december? If so, will Ubuntu 10.04 also contain this Gnome version? | 14:33 |
| joeyeye | simosx: gparted | 14:33 |
| pwizard88 | indus: You mean by editing the sources.d file? | 14:33 |
| indus | pwizard88: no no | 14:33 |
| lorenzosu | In ubuntu is there a way to turn the internal wifi card of a laptop on/off via "software" command? The "button" on my HP laptop is buggy with ubuntu | 14:33 |
| Chessguy | hey | 14:33 |
| indus | pwizard88: in synaptic> settings >repositories | 14:33 |
| moncky | lorenzosu: you can try 'sudo ifconfig <interface> up/down' | 14:34 |
| simosx | joeyeye: gparted does not allow me to move the unallocated space inside the extended partition. | 14:34 |
| Chessguy | anyone good with setting up an hp printer, i've already used hplip auto set up, but nothing will print | 14:34 |
| Chessguy | officejet 6500 | 14:34 |
| Alvinware | pwizard88, but you still can be download that file from a good source/server, a fast/more avaliable bandwidth, and less clients connected one. | 14:34 |
| === akravets_ is now known as akravets | ||
| pwizard88 | indus Alvinware: I changed to Main Server, and hit reload in the GUI. That fine? | 14:35 |
| kbp | simosx: have u umount all related partitions first? | 14:35 |
| joeyeye | simosx: in a way it does. I think you'd need to zap the extended partition first - so copy it's contents elsewhere before you do that. I just did this a few days ago with gparted. | 14:35 |
| lorenzosu | moncky: Thanks. | 14:35 |
| indus | pwizard88: cool | 14:35 |
| Alvinware | pwizard88, the update manager? | 14:35 |
| Catspiritone | Could somebody PM me and help me with diff patching in Windows. :( | 14:35 |
| lstarnes | Catspiritone: ##windows is the support channel for windows | 14:35 |
| Chessguy | anyone good with setting up an hp printer, i've already used hplip auto set up, but nothing will print, using hp officejet 6500 | 14:36 |
| indus | why two hashes before windows | 14:36 |
| pwizard88 | Alvinware: in the synaptic package manager gui | 14:36 |
| moncky | lorenzosu: np :D | 14:36 |
| indus | #windows different from ##windows? | 14:36 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Does it also change it for my commandline tool? | 14:36 |
| janisozaur | indus: #windows redirects to ##windows | 14:36 |
| simosx | kbp, joeyeye: I can mount from USB stick, so the partitions will be unmounted, if required. My issue is to do the job without having to remove the existing logical partitions. I suppose this functionality is not in floss software yet. | 14:36 |
| indus | pwizard88: of course synaptic is just a front end to apt-get | 14:36 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Ohk | 14:36 |
| lstarnes | indus: ##windows is not a channel made by the creators of windows, hence the two #'s | 14:37 |
| indus | pwizard88: never mind the front end back end stuff :) | 14:37 |
| indus | lstarnes: aah so there is no official windows channel | 14:37 |
| pwizard88 | indus: No I understand the terminology, just that didn't know this fact, suspected it might be something independent :) | 14:37 |
| joeyeye | simosx: not like the way partitionmagic has it | 14:37 |
| panfist | when i try to start mysqld, it says it failed. how do i get more info | 14:37 |
| janisozaur | indus: if it were, it'd use MSN :P | 14:37 |
| indus | hehe | 14:38 |
| Alvinware | pwizard88, in the repository, under ubuntu software tab, it has an option to let you choose the best server for your location. | 14:38 |
| simosx | joeyeye: thanks. I'll have to figure out this one the hard way. | 14:38 |
| indus | panfist: thats vcos its probably already running do a ps -e in terminal and see | 14:38 |
| kbp | panfist: var/log/mysql | 14:38 |
| panfist | indus i thought that so i did a restart...stop was OK | 14:38 |
| panfist | kbp /var/log/mysql is an empty directory | 14:39 |
| pwizard88 | Alvinware: That's great , before this I was on the India Server...the main server seems to be working good BTW, trying updating with this | 14:39 |
| zem_ | ekkomi qua :D | 14:39 |
| Waldteufel | hi | 14:39 |
| Chessguy | anyone good with setting up an hp printer, i've already used hplip auto set up, but nothing will print, using hp officejet 6500 | 14:39 |
| indus | pwizard88: so did this owrk? | 14:39 |
| Chessguy | Waldteufel: hi | 14:39 |
| indus | work | 14:39 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Reloading in progress | 14:39 |
| pwizard88 | indus: It's downloading packages sources etc | 14:39 |
| Chessguy | sigh | 14:40 |
| kbp | panfist: i thought its a log file, not directory | 14:40 |
| Alvinware | pwizard88, but it'll test for you which server is the best for you, then you should use that, it make a lot more faster, really. | 14:40 |
| panfist | i have /var/log/mysql (folder) /var/log/mysql.err /var/log/mysql.log ... all empty | 14:40 |
| iwannasave | simosx: to move any free partition from primary to extended, you will need to redo your partition table. | 14:41 |
| joeyeye | Chessguy: it should be a simple matter of selecting the right make and model and device uri... | 14:41 |
| panfist | if i try to reinstall mysql will i lose my existign data? | 14:41 |
| indus | Alvinware:experience says main server is best server, you get everythinh first,else i find german servers are great | 14:41 |
| indus | Alvinware: mirrors take time to get updated | 14:41 |
| Chessguy | joeyeye: i went through the setup, it says it connected successfully, but not even a test page will print | 14:41 |
| Chessguy | i get communication error 5012 | 14:42 |
| iwannasave | simosx: extended partition usually encomposes a region of disk, from certain sector to certain sector. | 14:42 |
| lstarnes | panfist: you likely won't unless you purge it instead of just removing normally | 14:42 |
| Alvinware | indus, for me, .ca. | 14:42 |
| joeyeye | Chessguy: open up system | administration | printers | 14:42 |
| mezquitale | Chessguy, go to the web interface and try to configure it from there | 14:42 |
| lstarnes | panfist: it might be a good idea to back up your existing data first | 14:42 |
| indus | Alvinware: i always use main server cos i cant wait for anythinh:) | 14:42 |
| mezquitale | Chessguy, first try what joeyeye told you | 14:42 |
| indus | Alvinware: it just runs super smooth always, i mean download speed wise | 14:43 |
| panfist | lstarnes how do i back it up without being able to start it | 14:43 |
| indus | pwizard88: what is the speed of your connection? | 14:43 |
| lstarnes | panfist: mysql stores its configuration in /etc/mysql and its databases in /var/lib/mysql | 14:43 |
| Alvinware | indus, main server speed for me in malaysia doesn't matched the http://ubuntu/mirror.rafal.ca/ubuntu that i'm using now, real fast. | 14:43 |
| pwizard88 | indus: I am behind a proxy in college...frankly, it sucks. The downloading stopped in between, not it's restarted | 14:44 |
| indus | hmm, ok i guess its different for people | 14:44 |
| panfist | ahh i think i found the mistake...i had bind-address set to an ip that changed | 14:44 |
| panfist | it's working now | 14:44 |
| indus | pwizard88: aah | 14:44 |
| joeyeye | Chessguy: you there ? | 14:45 |
| indus | pwizard88: no problem it continues from where it broke anyway | 14:45 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Yeah thats what I figured | 14:45 |
| indus | Alvinware: you in malaysia? and .ca is where? | 14:45 |
| lstarnes | indus: canada? | 14:45 |
| Alvinware | indus, yes, i'm in malaysia, .ca search en.eikipedia.org. | 14:46 |

| Alvinware | indus, en.wikipedia.org | 14:46 |
| indus | maybe the routing | 14:46 |
| indus | never mind its off topic | 14:47 |
| Alvinware | indus, it's true, i let it test for me, and return that the best site was that, and i choose it. | 14:47 |

| indus | i have to solve 2 problems for today for divine providence :) | 14:48 |
| Alvinware | indus, you have to calculated how the under-water sea fibre optic cable run, and the how many clients connect, and so on. | 14:48 |
| mezquitale | MK13, and you can't configure it using "Network Configuration" under "Preferences"? | 14:48 |
| pwizard88 | indus: doesn't ~/.bash_profile execute at login in ubuntu? | 14:48 |
| vigo | How do I write to disk, DVD-RW rather than burning, I wish to use the DVD-RW as a backup and media storage and still be able to add or remove data from it like any medium? | 14:48 |
| indus | pwizard88: ok i like the easy questions | 14:49 |
| indus | ") | 14:49 |
| popll | /SET term_force_colors ON | 14:49 |
| MK13 | mezquitale, i don't what the configurations would be... they usually just work | 14:49 |
| kbp | vigo i dont get what you mean :) | 14:49 |
| Alvinware | vigo, if u inserted a blank new disc, it sure pop-up the windows that let you drag-and-drop, right? | 14:50 |
| bcpeters | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7710538#post7710538 anyone mind taking a look at this ? | 14:50 |
| popll | /SET term force colors ON | 14:50 |
| lstarnes | popll: remove the space before the / | 14:50 |
| joeyeye | vigo: you still need to "burn" DVD-RWs | 14:50 |
| indus | pwizard88: after this step is over, just serch for g++ and intall it,click apply | 14:51 |
| iwannasave | set term force colors ON | 14:51 |
| mezquitale | MK13, in "Network Configuration" go to the "wireless" tab, then just put in the SSID and it should automatically find it. Ive had to manually change SSID's when logging on to different wireless spots, my laptop doesn't configure it automatically | 14:51 |

| pwizard88 | indus: Ye worked :D | 14:51 |
| vigo | The CD/DVD thing only gives a burn option, that uses the entire disk, CD-R,CD-RW or DVD-RW , I understand the burn part, but I have also used BeOS to transfer data between machines. That had a Write Option. | 14:51 |

| indus | pwizard88: i wont be able to help with this sorry :( | 14:52 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Tried putting it in ~/.bash_profile, didn't work | 14:53 |
| vigo | Maybe rsync is the route I need to look at more? | 14:53 |
| mezquitale | MK13, and youre not getting an ip?? What is the output of "iwconfig"? | 14:53 |
| pwizard88 | indus: Ohk | 14:53 |
| Alvinware | vigo, try one by one all the available disc burning software in add/remove, and synaptic pakage manger to meet your need. | 14:53 |
| MK13 | mezquitale, hold on, havent tried iwconfig yet | 14:53 |
| grawity | pwizard88: ~/.bashrc is probably what you want. | 14:53 |

| pwizard88 | grawity: Ok, but when does ~/.bash_profile run? I heard it runs when an interactive login shell starts...that should be the time when I login? | 14:54 |
| grawity | pwizard88: When you login to the console, yes. But GUI logins don't run a shell. | 14:54 |
| vigo | Alvinware: Thank you, that is most likely the right way, I was using whatever default was in 9.04, getting Gnomebaker now, Thank you all. | 14:54 |
| mezquitale | Chessguy, to configure your printer use the "Printing" applet in "system-->Administration" | 14:54 |
| pwizard88 | grawity: Ohk. And when exactly does ~/.bashrc run? | 14:54 |

| nanotube | garymc: the file should have been created in the directory from which you ran mysqldump. probably your home dir? | 15:30 |
| garymc | I executed in root i think | 15:30 |
| iceroot | garymc: you are root? | 15:30 |
| garymc | yes | 15:30 |
| nanotube | garymc: well, there it should be, then. | 15:30 |
| iceroot | garymc: it is a public server? | 15:30 |
| garymc | its a dedicated server | 15:30 |
| garymc | im getting rid as i dont need no more | 15:30 |
| iceroot | garymc: please dont get this wrong but if you dont know anything about linux its not a good idea to host a server (spam, warez and so on) | 15:31 |
| garymc | I installed all that stuff last year | 15:31 |
| len | nanotube, the opt found to do this using UI doenst work, gonna try using xorg | 15:31 |

| garymc | can i search for the .sql file i just created? | 15:32 |
| garymc | i cant find it | 15:32 |
| nanotube | DwightShroot: no, it's not in the repos. see http://pykeylogger.sourceforge.net/ | 15:32 |
| iceroot | garymc: ls, its in the same folder you startet the mysql command | 15:32 |
| nanotube | garymc: it should be in the dir where you executed mysqldump - just "ls -al ." to list contenst. | 15:32 |

| len | nanotube, is there anyway to reload xorg without restarting gnome? | 15:33 |
| garymc | it says root root | 15:33 |
| nanotube | len: no, gnome runs on top of xorg... | 15:33 |
| garymc | got it | 15:33 |
| iceroot | garymc: because you started the command as root | 15:34 |
| nanotube | iceroot: weird huh? :) | 15:34 |
| garymc | cool | 15:34 |
| iceroot | nanotube: i need his ip, to put it in spamassasin and so on | 15:34 |

| myhnet | tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:50613 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN - | 15:38 |
| grawity | myhnet: Doesn't seem to be a known service ... can you do "netstat -lptn" as root? | 15:39 |
| myhnet | too strange, i can't see the process though i logged in as root | 15:39 |
| grawity | Or, better, fuser -n tcp 50613 | 15:39 |
| nanotube | DwightShroot: you can run "dumpkeys > mykeymap.txt" from a console to generate a keymap. then supply that file to lkl with the -k option. | 15:39 |
| carldani | hi | 15:39 |
| myhnet | thank you grawity, i will try | 15:39 |
| myhnet | nothing returns | 15:40 |

| p-f | is there a way to paste what's in X's selection buffer without having to use the middle mouse button? C-v referes to a different buffer about half of the time. | 15:40 |

| myhnet | nanotube, i logged as root | 15:41 |
| p-f | grawity, shift+insert is the same as C-v, as far as I know | 15:41 |

| p-f | grawity, it's a bit strange that a platform with such a high percentage of mouse-haters would have a copy buffer that's only accessible through the mouse :) | 15:42 |
| myhnet | nanotube, it returns me "-" in the process field | 15:42 |

| myhnet | grawity, sure | 15:43 |
| myhnet | but nothing returns | 15:43 |
| myhnet | no process listen on it | 15:43 |
| erUSUL | myhnet: «sudo lsof -ni :port» | 15:43 |
| grawity | I doubt that'll work either. | 15:43 |
| nanotube | myhnet: interesting... probably something like avahi-daemon or something... | 15:44 |
| grawity | nanotube: That should still be shown by netstat and fuser. | 15:44 |
| nanotube | grawity: should :) | 15:44 |
| myhnet | erUSUL, thank you, but still nothing returns | 15:44 |

| carldani | grawity: agreed. unless you have insufficient permissions. hm. | 15:45 |
| grawity | carldani: Being root? | 15:45 |
| myhnet | no process using it. but i don't know why it opens | 15:45 |
| carldani | myhnet: my next gues would be that either selinux or apparmor interfere | 15:46 |
| myhnet | stroyan, nothing returns | 15:46 |
| fumblnoob | myhnet: telnet localhost 50613 and see if it gives any banner | 15:46 |
| grawity | nc -vv localhost 50613 would be better | 15:46 |

| grawity | carldani: tcp | 15:46 |
| fumblnoob | yeah | 15:46 |

| DanielW | hi | 15:49 |
| carldani | myhnet: such high port numbers are usually present if you masquerade network accesses for another host. | 15:49 |
| nanotube | tyler_johnston: hm, well, could be anything... is it at least responding to ping? | 15:49 |
| erUSUL | docenaranjas: you need the old-releases mirror... but with such an ancient release it is better to do a clean install | 15:49 |
| myhnet | i'm running 804 | 15:49 |
| tyler_johnston | naontube: it can send out pings, but not respond, nmap says that ssh and http are open | 15:50 |
| stroyan | myhnet: Do you see process IDs for several other ports, but none for that port, using "sudo netstat -tanp" ? | 15:50 |
| DanielW | where does ubuntu get the kernel options (in my case napic) from when using update-grub? i mean i could just change the options at the bottom of the menu.lst myself but i think that is not the way i should do it | 15:50 |
| tyler_johnston | nanotube: i had a friend reccomend runing tcpdump and nothing looked wrong, then http started working in and out | 15:50 |
| myhnet | stroyan | 15:50 |
| tyler_johnston | ssh wont work still | 15:50 |
| erUSUL | DanielW: there is kopts line in the grub config file | 15:50 |
| myhnet | yes i saw all others | 15:50 |
| DanielW | erk: the menu.lst? | 15:51 |
| nanotube | tyler_johnston: hm, weird... could it be in need of a reboot? | 15:51 |
| tyler_johnston | nanotube: already did that this morning | 15:51 |
| sd6 | can somme one help me her | 15:51 |
| erUSUL | DanielW: sorry is defoptions | 15:51 |
| erUSUL | DanielW: grep -n defoptions /boot/grub/menu.lst | 15:52 |
| myhnet | carldani, it is not a router | 15:52 |
| stroyan | erUSUL: Actuall, it can be both defoptions "for the default" and "kopt". | 15:52 |
| DanielW | looks like it is kopt. but that is commented out | 15:52 |
| tyler_johnston | nanotube: any other ideas? D: | 15:52 |
| erUSUL | sd6: with a sis card you can not have effects... there is no 3d driver aviable/good enough | 15:52 |
| erUSUL | stroyan: good to know... DanielW read what stroyan said to me | 15:53 |
| nanotube | tyler_johnston: ehrm... not really... if you have physical access, maybe try logging in from a console? | 15:53 |
| stroyan | DanielW: Those comments are actually spooky active comments that grub reads when updating. | 15:53 |
| tyler_johnston | nanotube: i do have console access, everything goes out but nothing is coming in other than http, my iptables are empty and UFW is disabled | 15:53 |
| carldani | myhnet: can you pastebin "netstat -lnp|grep ^..p" as root somewhere? maybe I get a few ideas once I see the output | 15:53 |
| sd6 | erUSUL : so i should change it | 15:54 |
| nanotube | tyler_johnston: and what exactly happens when you try to ssh in? | 15:54 |
| tyler_johnston | nanotube: my connection times out | 15:54 |

| romeus1 | I'm running Ubuntu 9.04, I've noticed that pulseaudio CPU usage is high even when the computer is idle, it hovers around 15% (+/- 5%) which is similar to Xorg and sometimes higher. | 16:08 |
| neosoro | my audio just works with headphones what can be? | 16:09 |
| carldani | tyler_johnston: on the diagnosis machine, run "arping -b -I eth0 1.2.3.4" where 1.2.3.4 is the IP of the non-responding server. You should get exactly one response with one MAC address for every ARP you send out. | 16:09 |
| carldani | tyler_johnston: replace eth0 with the correct interface of the diagnosis machine. | 16:10 |

| om26er | moncky: no that's not the case | 16:13 |

| docenaranjas | So, given that I should do a clean install, would there be any reason to choose an 8.x release over jackalope? | 16:15 |
| sjlkg | is that normal? | 16:15 |
| DwightShroot | nanotube: from it being in the archive manager | 16:15 |

| cheetahw26 | just different kernel versions... that you can boot to | 16:37 |

| m0r0n | cheetahw26: They keep adding, can I just remove them so I can just boot to one? | 16:38 |
| jrib | m0r0n: it's usually a good idea to keep at least 2 kernels around (one safe one that you know works). If you want to get rid of a kernel though, get rid of the corresponding linux-image-* package | 16:38 |
| cheetahw26 | yeah... just delete them out of ... what is it on ubuntu by default... /etc/grub.conf ? | 16:39 |
| bubby | hi. where can i set my environment vars when starting in X? | 16:39 |
| Trijntje | its /boot/grub/menu.lst i think | 16:39 |

| jrib | slestak: well it should tell you if it will take anything else with it. Just make sure you read exactly what it wants to do | 17:02 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: that is not possible like that. You would have to install xp in a virtual machine or something like that. | 17:02 |
| jrib | !virtualizer | ubuntizer | 17:03 |
| Halitech | ubuntizer, do you mean access the files in the windows partition or actually run windows inside ubuntu? | 17:03 |
| ubottu | ubuntizer: 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 | 17:03 |
| mithridates | jrib : no I'm using ubuntu, but when my hard was fulling I boot up my laptop with live cd of ubuntu, then when I was getting backup it happend | 17:03 |
| imgoofygoober | what do you call ubuntu that costs money? | 17:03 |
| jrib | !ot | imgoofygoober | 17:03 |
| ubottu | imgoofygoober: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions. Please use #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics. Thanks! | 17:03 |
| ghassen | any one here to help? I can't restore my session when suspend my laptop(ununtu 9.04) | 17:03 |
| mithridates | jrib : I think I did this : chown mithridates.mithridates /media/Trans... | 17:03 |

| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> Oh :( | 17:03 |
| ubuntizer | <jrib> Thanks :-) | 17:04 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: that factoid doesn't mention it but there's also virt-manager for use with KVM. I prefer KVM for Linux guests and VirtualBox for Windows guests. | 17:04 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: what are you trying to do? maybe there is a way to do that | 17:04 |

| jrib | mithridates: "it happened"? What happened exactly/ | 17:04 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: migrating a bare-metal install to VirtualBox is possible but not the easiest thing in the world to do. | 17:04 |
| jrib | !repeat | ghassen | 17:04 |

| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> does it allow me to use windows xp (which is installed on my pc) to be used virtually from ubuntu ? | 17:05 |
| mithridates | jrib : that I can't see other folders | 17:05 |
| Halitech | ubuntizer, you would need to run a VM of some sort, check the link that stefg posted | 17:05 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: yes | 17:05 |
| cellofellow | !VirtualBox | ubuntizer | 17:05 |
| ubottu | ubuntizer: virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from the package 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 17:05 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> Actually i have a weird problem, i cant seem to solve.. i cant access any google services on my ubuntu properly..while i can access them easily on my windows machine. | 17:05 |
| stefg | ubuntizer: http://dotneverland.blogspot.com/2008/08/running-your-physical-windows-xp.html is even better | 17:05 |
| jrib | mithridates: it doesn't seem like any other folders exist. Boot it up in windows and verify | 17:05 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: I suggest the non-free VirtualBox from VirtualBox.org | 17:06 |
| ghassen | ok bro, i really find it confusing to chat over here, | 17:06 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: for one, you get the new 3.0 version. | 17:06 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: that is the problem you should try to solve, not running xp inside ubuntu ;) | 17:06 |
| mithridates | jrib : I'm sure, I don't have enough permission to read it | 17:06 |
| jrib | ghassen: just pay attention to your highlights and ignore everything else | 17:06 |
| mithridates | jrib : drwx------ | 17:06 |
| jrib | mithridates: it's not a permissions issue. You would get an error, not see some folders and not others | 17:06 |
| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> seems cool. i will try it out. can i use my internet virtually on my windows? | 17:06 |
| jrib | mithridates: your user has rwx permissions anyway, that's full permissions | 17:07 |
| mithridates | jrib : ok thanks any way , I will try with windows | 17:07 |
| ghassen | it runs so quickly, it's like watching a NASCAR race or F1 | 17:07 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> Its been 15 long days, i cant solve it :'( i mean how can this happen ? it's really weird. | 17:07 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: if you just want to acces some google service, you are doing it the HARD way | 17:07 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: there are various ways. a virtual NAT, a bridged network interface, virtual interfaces. In short, yes. | 17:07 |
| carldani | how can I find out who the maintainer for a given package is? I don't have access to an Ubuntu install right now | 17:07 |
| jrib | mithridates: if it turns out you do see the other folders with windows, come back and explain that | 17:07 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: what is you problem exactly? cant acces gmail through firefox? | 17:07 |
| jrib | carldani: try packages.ubuntu.com | 17:07 |
| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> Great. Thanks a lot, i will look into it ;-) | 17:08 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: I don't know of any Google services that don't work in any Linux. What's not working? | 17:08 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> i cant access any google services (even google) properly (i mean it opens sometimes, it doesn't open other time) Even if a page got google ads, the page wont load ...as google ad doesn't get loaded. | 17:08 |
| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> Any google services, in any browser. | 17:09 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: still, not enough information. | 17:09 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: Did you do a fresh install of ubuntu recently? Do you have flash installed? | 17:09 |
| Halitech | ubuntizer, have you edited the hosts file by any chance? | 17:09 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: you mean anything *.google.com doesn't load? | 17:09 |
| jrib | ubuntizer: what happens exactly? | 17:09 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> yea, i have flash installed :-) And moreover, problem is with all browsers. I tried wvdial and kppp to configure my modem, both have same problems. | 17:10 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: you're on dial up? | 17:10 |
| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> Any google services...gmail, google, youtube.... i mean it opens VERY rarely (if m lucky :P) | 17:10 |
| ghassen | i'm lost again | 17:11 |
| ubuntizer | <jrib> No error, nothing..just keeps on loading n loading. | 17:11 |

| grawity | cellofellow: Copy-paste instead of tab-completion. | 17:11 |
| mithridates | jrib : you were right, other folders were in a folder. | 17:12 |
| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> yea.i have a wireless USB modem...the manufacturer doesn't provide the software for linux..so i have used wvdial to connect. | 17:12 |
| jordyd | ubuntizer: And non-Google stuff works fine? | 17:12 |
| ubuntizer | <cellofellow> let me try. | 17:12 |

| cellofellow | wireless usb modem? I don't follow... what's that? | 17:12 |

| tavi_ | ok | 17:35 |
| dremits | cellowfellow: will do. not sure why there is a problem though. this is a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 | 17:36 |

| d8sd9s | Hi! Will next debian release be shipped with Gnome 2.28 because of the freeze in december? If so, will Ubuntu 10.04 also contain this Gnome version? | 17:37 |
| skynet | cellofellow, are there more options? | 17:38 |
| jrib | d8sd9s: ask #debian about debian. Ubuntu's releases usually coincide with Gnome's releases, yes | 17:38 |
| cellofellow | skynet: there's tons of options | 17:38 |
| dremits | cellofellow: permissions for said folder are: owned by root, group = root, others access = read only | 17:38 |
| ubuntizer | <joeyeye> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/239583/ :-) | 17:38 |
| jrib | d8sd9s: I thought I read 9.10. 10.04 has no specifications yet afaik... | 17:39 |
| cellofellow | dremits: it should be owned and group owned by you and yourgroup, permissions should allow you and you alone to write. | 17:39 |
| cellofellow | dremits: there should be nothing inside of your home directory that belongs to root, that causes problems. | 17:39 |
| Trijntje | joeyeye: ubuntizer doesnt have a memory problem | 17:39 |
| dremits | cellowfellow why is it like this, this is a fresh install of ubuntu? | 17:40 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: are you on a new ubuntu install? | 17:40 |
| cellofellow | dremits: it isn't, you did something to it. | 17:40 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> :-s why cant i use all google (just google ?) services properly ... Yes. i m having new install. :-) | 17:40 |
| dotness | ubuntizer: every time i have some unknown problem with ubuntu, i install slackware ;) think about that :P | 17:40 |
| dremits | cellofellow: lol fair enough | 17:40 |

| ubottu | Other !Linux distributions besides !Ubuntu include: Debian, Mepis (using !APT); RedHat, Fedora, SUSE, Mandriva (using !RPM); Gentoo, Slackware (using other packaging systems) | 17:41 |
| cellofellow | dremits: you could create a new user for yourself and start over | 17:41 |
| ubuntizer | <dotness> I love ubuntu :( | 17:41 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: i dont know. And from xp you can use google services? | 17:41 |
| tavi_ | is nothign there about unistall\ | 17:41 |
| joeyeye | Trijntje: oh ... it seemed that way - traceroute failed sending packets out | 17:41 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> Yea. Very perfectly. And my modem manufacturer provides a special software using which i connect on windows. | 17:41 |
| dremits | cellofellow: is there a command that can scan my home folder and find files belonging to root, or perhaps change all files to be owned by me | 17:41 |
| genii | sudo chown -R yourname:yourgroup /home/yourname | 17:42 |
| pianistbaby | how can i quickly see whether my ubuntu comp is using pulseaudio? | 17:42 |
| joeyeye | Trijntje: ubuntizer: what is the symptom that's causing grief ? | 17:42 |
| pianistbaby | and what version of pulseaudio it is using. | 17:42 |
| d8sd9s | jrib: Okey, thanks, but it would seem reasonable, right? :) | 17:42 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: that is a very strange problem you have. If you post it on the forum, i'm sure lots of people will get curios and try to figure out what is happening ;) | 17:42 |
| dotness | pianistbaby: whereis pulseaudio? | 17:42 |
| cellofellow | dremits: yeah, just a minute. find will do the job but let me think about the options | 17:42 |
| pianistbaby | dotness: is it not possible that whereis pulseaudio will show location, but that it's not being used? | 17:43 |
| olaf-vom | Hi everybody... my Ubuntu 9.04 installation freezes within minutes with Desktop Effects being activated. Does anybody else have such problems since the latest kernel updates to 2.6.28-14.47? (I got a new mainboard as well with GeForce 8200, but had a GeForce 6150 prior to that...) | 17:43 |
| cellofellow | dremits: sudo find ~ -user root | 17:43 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje> Yea, i would post a topic there :-) | 17:43 |
| Trijntje | joeyeye: ubuntizer is unable to acces any google services form his ubuntu. From xp on the same machine all works fine. All other web services work fine. The problem occurs in all browsers | 17:43 |
| cellofellow | dremits: that should work | 17:43 |

| joeyeye | Trijntje: ubuntizer: google services like gmail, etc ? or gmail webservices ? | 17:44 |
| nero_ | i'm very much new donno nutting aba ubuntu | 17:44 |
| th0r | pianistbaby: yes it is possible. To determine if pulse is loaded I think you can do 'ps ax | grep pulse'. If it returns anything besides 'grep pulse' then it is loaded and running | 17:44 |
| dremits | thanks cellofellow. sonism will just check first. thanks | 17:44 |
| ubuntizer | <joeyeye><Trijntje> where can the problem be ? is it memory problem ? | 17:44 |

| pianistbaby | th0r: so is pulseaudio currently running on my comp? | 17:46 |
| dremits | cellofellow, sonism: there are a few files that belong to root but they are relatively few. can i just confirm that all files in my home directory should belong to me, no exceptions before i run sonism's suggested command | 17:46 |

| cellofellow | dremits: that'll work | 17:47 |

| ubuntizer | <joeyeye> Actually nothing, it just keep on loading (waiting for www.google.com) :P | 17:47 |

| Besogon | olaf-vom, Im interesting only. | 17:47 |
| cellofellow | ubuntizer: till it times out? | 17:47 |

| dremits | ok then thanks | 17:48 |
| cellofellow | dremits: it shouldn't mess things ups | 17:48 |

| olaf-vom | Besogon: DNS is Domain Name System, main purpose is to resolve sth. like "www.ubuntu.com" to an IP address. NIS is Network Information System, very commonly used to handle user-accounts within a network. (Somewhat remoteloy similar to a Windows-domain...) | 17:50 |
| th0r | fosa: you can add them by adding .desktop files to ~/.local/share/applications | 17:50 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: i dont know what else can cause this, i hope joeyeye can help you. Good luck | 17:50 |
| ubuntizer | <joeyeye> Problem is with every browser.. i have tried epiphany, firefox 2.0, firefox 3 :-s | 17:50 |

| d8sd9s | mt-lith: I think you missunderstood. Im speculating what gnome version will be shipped with ubuntu 10.04. | 17:50 |
| dremits | sonism: what to my home directory? | 17:51 |
| ubuntizer | <Trijntje>Thanks a lot man, i would post it at forums too :-) | 17:51 |
| olaf-vom | Besogon: You can't have today's internet without DNS, as otherwise your browser wouldn't find any server out there. Usually NIS is local-network-only. | 17:51 |
| th0r | fosa: impress should already be there...as openoffice presentation | 17:51 |
| sonism | dremits: no, the stubborn files/folders? | 17:52 |
| d8sd9s | mt-lith: If debian has a feature freeze in december, gnome 3 wont make it to ubuntu 10.04? Right? Or? Hrm? | 17:52 |

| th0r | fosa: no...sorry | 17:53 |
| mt-lith | d8sd9s: sorry, haven't seen anything about 10.04. the next LTS release? | 17:53 |
| Trijntje | ubuntizer: glad to help, i hope you figure it out! | 17:53 |
| cellofellow | d8sd9s: debian freezes won't effect Ubuntu at all, as the freezes are for Stable only, and Ubuntu bases off of Unstable. | 17:53 |
| Besogon | olaf-vom, ok. now I udestand. One question else. Would I see my NIS network (with NFS shares )with nautilus? I have got one NFS-share folder but nautilus don't display that | 17:54 |

| slacker_nl | !gparted | 17:55 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GTK/!Gnome !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 17:55 |

| === orion is now known as mdcclv | ||
| slacker_nl | the livecd of ubuntu contains the gparted app? | 17:56 |
| sonism | dremits: we forgot the -R option in the previous command | 17:56 |
| cellofellow | d8sd9s: now, if Debian and Ubuntu can coordinate their freezes, say each Debian Stable freezes on the same day as the freeze for each Ubuntu LTS, that'd be nice, but so far I don't see that happening any time soon. | 17:56 |
| cellofellow | d8sd9s: it'd make it so that packages could be freely built and run between the two, no compatibility issues. | 17:57 |

| sonism | dremits: umount all samba / nfs shares that mounted in your home first | 17:58 |
| cellofellow | dremits: sonism: I wouldn't worry about the .gvfs directory, as it gets recreated each time you log in. | 17:58 |

| olaf-vom | Besogon: sorry - can you rephrase please? (do you mean name resolution -> IPs?) | 18:12 |

| afd__ | hi guys! I have a hard disk that is marked as "160 gb" on its shell, while it is detected as having just 30 gb on it by qtparted (no filesystem yet). What can I do to fix this situation? I have a laptop, no desktop system | 18:15 |
| olaf-vom | Besogon: :) ... to be honest, I've stopped concentrating on the network admin area before this became too annoying for me to find some tool. And I can't remember those that I 've tried. (Most of the time, I only had a few shares back then and was OK with mounting/unmounting them, basically manually.) Sorry, no idea - but I'm sure there are good tools out there... | 18:15 |
| joeyeye_ | ubuntizer: now do the same while access google services in the browser (run netstat -a when it's all waiting...) | 18:15 |
| Tankado | jiohdi : the DELL vostro laptop build in keyboard | 18:15 |
| jiohdi | thats a stumper.... | 18:16 |

| Tankado | jiohdi : what? do you know how to solve it? | 18:16 |
| Besogon | olaf-vom, Look at that http://library.gnome.org/users/user-guide/stable/nautilus-accessnetwork.html.en (ubuntu nautilus don't display NFS) | 18:17 |
| jiohdi | tankado, I probably would not know how to solve it if it were something else... but I was having some hardware issues because of a bad install | 18:17 |
| guntbert | DwightShroot: thx, have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=662188 (its a bit old though) | 18:17 |
| jiohdi | the ps2 worked better than the usb, I am guessing for driver reasons | 18:17 |

| danbhfive | jiohdi: if it uses activex, it won't help to trick the site, as it won't run on linux any AFAIK | 18:22 |
| ubuntizer | joeyeye: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/239681/ | 18:23 |

| CaptWho | my networked laserjet stopped working. it was working, but it stopped. i can ping the printer by ip from the computer, i've reinstalled the printer. any ideas on where i should go from here? | 18:23 |
| Besogon | afd__, may be you have 2 hard disk. (Like it on asus eee pc1000) | 18:23 |
| vigo | afd__: Do you have any data on it that you wish to save? | 18:23 |
| danbhfive | jiohdi: well, I think you can get a firefox extension that will change your use agent string. That is probably what you are looking for | 18:24 |
| genii | CaptWho: I suggest to make sure the IP isn't actually some computer getting it by dhcp instead of the printer. | 18:24 |
| jiohdi | dan, any idea what it might be called? | 18:24 |
| MOUD | Hello | 18:24 |
| danbhfive | jiohdi: no, but can you search for it? | 18:24 |
| jiohdi | under agent? | 18:25 |
| CaptWho | Genii, the same ip is working from other machines | 18:25 |
| joeyeye_ | ubuntizer: there's a few receive errors | 18:25 |
| afd__ | vigo: no, I don't have any data that I wish to save. Can I somehow reset the harddisk cylinder data or whatever? | 18:25 |
| olaf-vom | My USB mouse is not reliably detected on boot time, sometimes it just doesn't work on GDM logon screen. (Plugging it in anew works, but is really tiresome.) Any idea? | 18:26 |
| Besogon | olaf-vom, no argue to you | 18:26 |
| ubuntizer | <joeyeye_>Any way to solve them ? Moreover, if i upgrade to 9.04, will this issue be solved ? :-s | 18:26 |
| afd__ | Besogon: no, nothing like that | 18:26 |
| joeyeye_ | ubuntizer: can you run a speed test at www.dslreports.com | 18:26 |
| ubuntizer | sure | 18:26 |
| joeyeye_ | ubuntizer: not sure yet what the problem is | 18:26 |
| danbhfive | jiohdi: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59 | 18:26 |
| vigo | afd__: Yes. you can use FDISK or GPARTED or any of other utilities, I suggest gparted because that is like the main Debian/Ubuntu partition utility. | 18:27 |
| Besogon | afd__, fdisk -l ??? | 18:27 |
| vigo | afd__: You may want to get or use DBAN on it, will wipe it on boot, so careful and read the README.txt. | 18:28 |
| afd__ | vigo: I'm already using qtparted... and it reports 30 gb size, no partitions, etc. I've been a programer and "hardcore" user for about 15 years, 100% Linux user for 5 years... just to understand what sort of level you need to adopt in this "debugging" | 18:28 |
| zorael_ | Why do I need superuser permissions to renice my own processes? | 18:28 |
| zorael_ | do I need to add myself to some renicer group? | 18:29 |
| grawity | zorael_: It's designed that way. Normal users can only increase their process niceness. | 18:29 |
| afd__ | vigo: I'm looking over this DBAN thing :) thanks for suggestions | 18:29 |
| fergal32 | hello boys and girls ^^ | 18:29 |
| grawity | You don't want anyone to be able to renice his apps to -20 | 18:29 |
| zorael_ | grawity: Aw, okay, thanks. | 18:29 |
| jiohdi | dan, yous is a genius, it woiked | 18:29 |
| zorael_ | true | 18:29 |
| sash_ | zorael_: you must be su, because by doing this as normal user, you could "steal" process-priority | 18:30 |
| cyberninja | my exim4 has stopped letting me send emails to external addreses, can someone please take a look http://p.linode.com/2770 | 18:30 |
| grawity | zorael_: you're using 'sudo renice'? You can make sudo not ask for password. | 18:30 |
| sash_ | zorael_: you have to remember that linux is build as multi-user-system etc... | 18:30 |
| afd__ | vigo: I'm not sure that would help.. I image it will just wipe the disk and partitions, which I already did. | 18:30 |
| zorael_ | grawity: yeah, for renicing mplayer processes after smplayer launches them, doesn't seem to be an option in it to tell it to run mplayer through nice | 18:30 |
| joeyeye_ | ubuntizer: any luck ? | 18:31 |
| vigo | afd__: That will get any and all of the available sectors that are readable, may need to use some other utilities if it has bad sectors or whatnot. | 18:31 |
| afd__ | vigo: I see | 18:31 |
| afd__ | is there a utility which can get even lower level details that qtparted would report? | 18:31 |

| joeyeye_ | ubuntizer: run the same test when booted in windows | 18:33 |
| olaf-vom | Besogon: need to leave for now -- bye and have fun with all this network-stuff ... (it's a pitty I don't have the time to pursue this anymore :) ...) | 18:33 |
| vigo | afd__: There are a few utilities/tools in Linux that can check sectors, if label says 180 and system reports 30, I would think locked or hidden files or bad sectors, a 75 pass wipe could not hurt, is also kinda fun. | 18:33 |
| ubuntizer | <joeyeye_>i have run tests before on windows, the results are normal, same as we got here.. the thing which makes me confused is, why only GOOGLE ? :( i can load any other site. | 18:34 |

| moox | !Upstart | 18:52 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 18:52 |
| AlexanderSupertr | Pici: thanks. I hope they work for Intrepid. | 18:52 |
| MOUD | I'm trying to install a python script addon but it gives me a lot of errors. The script is PyBluez-015. Here's the output of the command: http://paste.ubuntu.com/239741/ I'm not sure why it's not working. | 18:52 |
| jrib | MOUD: did you check if it is in the repositories? | 18:53 |
| AlexanderSupertr | Pici: i meant the articles, i m already in #django | 18:53 |
| jonesy_ | this channel shit no one can tell me how to set my desktop to its max size | 18:53 |
| emcpn | hello to all of us | 18:53 |
| moox | jrib: OK, i'll check that. Second question. I have an ubuntu-server. I want to install ubuntu-desktop then remoting with NX. I don't want to run gdm on this compute, what is the best way to disable the service ? update-rc.d to REMOVE or STOP or juste delete the symlink? | 18:53 |
| jrib | !fixres > jonesy_ | 18:53 |
| ubottu | jonesy_, please see my private message | 18:53 |
| Pici | AlexanderSupertr: The package names are pretty much the same across those releases, so it should be okay. | 18:53 |
| MOUD | jrib, no | 18:53 |
| jrib | jonesy_: please be respectful of others in this channel | 18:53 |
| phurl | jrib, i am going to try anyway | 18:53 |
| CaptWho | I'm running Ubuntu on a laptop. my networked laserjet stopped working. it was working, but it stopped. i can ping the printer from my computer by ip and i'm pinging the correct ip, i've reinstalled the printer. any ideas on where i should go from here? | 18:53 |
| jrib | MOUD: it is: python-bluez | 18:53 |
| jrib | phurl: ok, but what you are asking is not reasonable. To install ubuntu you need an uncorrupted cd | 18:54 |
| AlexanderSupertr | Pici: Thanks for help. :) | 18:55 |
| MOUD | jrib: There's no python-bluez | 18:55 |
| majnoon | any wubi experts here got stuck in a grub4dos prompt | 18:55 |
| jrib | !info python-bluez | MOUD | 18:55 |
| ubottu | MOUD: python-bluez (source: pybluez): Python wrappers around BlueZ for rapid bluetooth development. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.16-1ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 96 kB, installed size 484 kB | 18:55 |
| guntbert | moox: deleting the symlink is not so good, because it might get rewritten with an updatem so use update-rd instead | 18:55 |
| jrib | MOUD: how did you check? What version of ubuntu is this? | 18:55 |
| moox | guntbert: but the update will no launch it own update-rc at the end of the package install ? | 18:56 |
| jrib | moox: use sysv-rc-conf | 18:56 |
| MOUD | last one. amd64 btw | 18:56 |
| jrib | !who | MOUD | 18:56 |
| ubottu | MOUD: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 18:56 |
| ^cheeky | hi could anyone recommend me a good ide for python other than eric and idle | 18:56 |
| jrib | MOUD: what does « lsb_release -c » return? | 18:56 |
| MOUD | jrib: I tried python and tried with "tab" but there's no option other than python and python 2.6 | 18:57 |
| jrib | ^cheeky: use your favorite text editor | 18:57 |
| CaptWho | on another track, where might an error show up for printer problems? i'm looking in /var/logs/messages | 18:57 |
| guntbert | moox: I'm not certain but as far as I remember the docs update-rc is the recommended way | 18:57 |
| jrib | MOUD: no, you need to install the python-bluez package. Do you know how to do that? | 18:57 |
| mbrigdan | Hello, I seem to be having a problem with all my quote type keys (and tilde). The each require 2 key presses, and its somewhat annoying | 18:57 |
| ^cheeky | jrip yeah i guess so lol thnx | 18:57 |
| MOUD | jrib: sudo apt-get install python-bluez ? | 18:58 |
| moox | jrib: sysv-rc-conf sounds more sysv than upstart no? | 18:58 |
| balaji | Hello, I have so many versions of Linux kernels installed in my machine, so while booting the boot program gives ea huge list | 18:58 |
| jrib | MOUD: yes | 18:58 |
| fosa | okay here's a fun problem on for size | 18:58 |
| balaji | i am comfortable with the latest, how can I remove the rest from the list | 18:58 |
| MOUD | jrib: done | 18:58 |
| jrib | moox: so? :) Most of the scripts are still written sysv style and upstart just calls them all afaik | 18:58 |
| fosa | once every 2 hours or so my cursor will have a seizure | 18:58 |
| jrib | MOUD: then you have python-bluez | 18:58 |
| defrysk | balaji, sudo apt-get autoremove | 18:59 |
| moox | jrib: ok, I'll check that on google | 18:59 |
| fosa | it blinks rapidly and becomes nearly unresponsive, whether it's in a shell or otherwise | 18:59 |
| MOUD | jrib: thanks, I hope it'll work | 18:59 |
| fosa | potentially related to swiftfox | 18:59 |
| KewliOO | can someone help me out...my wirelesss on my laptop won't work | 18:59 |
| balaji | will there be any issue, if I remove them, i just want to hold the last updated kernal | 18:59 |
| jrib | moox: I mean I'm certain sysv-rc-conf is the proper way to stop gdm from starting on a certain runlevel, but no harm in checking :) | 18:59 |
| jrib | balaji: I would keep at least 2 kernels around... | 18:59 |
| moox | jrib: OK. I'll do that. Could you just explain why not use update-rc ? | 19:00 |
| KewliOO | can anyone help me fix my wireless problem??? | 19:00 |
| defrysk | balaji, if the latest works... remove the older ones | 19:00 |
| jrib | moox: if you read « man update-rc.d » it tells you to use tools like sysv-rc-conf or bum if you are a human being :) | 19:00 |
| mbrigdan | balaji: If you want to remove them from grub (the bootloader) goto /boot/grub/menu.lst and comment out the older versions | 19:00 |
| defrysk | balaji, no privating please | 19:01 |
| moox | jrib: youhou, I'll do | 19:01 |
| jrib | balaji: removing the packages should automatically update grub | 19:01 |
| balaji | I am sorry, thanks for the tip | 19:01 |

| KewliOO | I just installed Ubuntu on my dell c610 and it has a dell 1350 internal wireless card in it...when Ubuntu started up it wasn't connected...and it says under edit connections that there is an "Auto eth0" in the wired but nothing in the wireless | 19:11 |
| jonesy__ | !fixres > jonesy__ | 19:12 |
| ubottu | jonesy__, please see my private message | 19:12 |
| dark4og | guntbert: Thx for your time.. :) | 19:12 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, autoeth0 is normal, about the dell chipset wireless drivers i cant say tho | 19:12 |
| KewliOO | now I have went in and tried to manually put in the addresses for the IP4...but still no connection | 19:12 |
| b3rz3rk3r | auto eth0 is what ubuntu calls your first wired connection | 19:13 |
| KewliOO | ohh | 19:13 |
| KewliOO | kewl | 19:13 |
| KewliOO | but how come there isn't anything for the wireless? | 19:13 |

| jonesy__ | oh my god | 19:14 |
| jonesy__ | it dont even run | 19:14 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, same as me then | 19:14 |
| guntbert | dark4og, sonism: oops, I seem to have overlooked that part, but still - I see no need for the clients to be 64bit too, you will have to find the proper images though | 19:14 |
| KewliOO | it's a dell C610 laptop and a Dell 1350 internal wireless card | 19:14 |
| silverraindog | happy sysadmin day :) | 19:14 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, but you need to find out what card dell included on the chipset | 19:14 |
| KewliOO | how? | 19:14 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, should be easy to find out by googling your model number | 19:14 |
| MOUD | Has anyone here tried Bluetooth Proxy for PyS60? It allows you to use your PC's internet connection on your mobile via bluetooth. (only on Symbian O.S. S60) | 19:14 |

| KewliOO | what exactly would I type in google other than the model number to find out what card was included? | 19:15 |
| jonesy__ | kewli00 its wlan0 not eth0 | 19:16 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, dell (insert product line name) (insert model number) system specs | 19:16 |
| KewliOO | I don't have anything in the wireless | 19:16 |
| b3rz3rk3r | or something like that | 19:16 |
| guntbert | sonism: I thank you for the heads up, I mistook LTSP for LTS *blush* | 19:17 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, something that usually works too is updating via Eth0 first | 19:17 |
| sonism | guntbert: :) | 19:17 |
| clarinet | Anyone know about koules? | 19:17 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, as in, use the wired connection to update (and prob reboot too) then you may find the issue solves itself | 19:17 |
| krzysztof0 | ?? | 19:18 |
| KewliOO | humm...that's an idea | 19:18 |

| Gobby | Does the latest 9.04 ubuntu have all the updates in it? | 20:02 |
| Gobby | Because my father just reinstalled 9.04, when he boots up Ubuntu and starts the update manager, synaptic it freezes. | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | Gobby: no you should download the updates once you install it | 20:02 |
| geirha | pavs: You should program in lolcode. I think you have a natural talent http://lolcode.com/ | 20:02 |
| Gobby | Thats the problem 9.04 freezes during update manager | 20:02 |
| sebsebseb | Gobby: maybe a bad install, since the ISO wasn't checked, or the CD was bad that was installed from | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | Gobby: I assume the ISO was never checked | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | !update | Gobby | 20:03 |

| mankeletor | b3rz3rk3r, that was the answer that i was looking for =) (another case slack10.2 yay) | 20:03 |
| Gobby | MY dad did a fresh install it worked completly fine yesterday with the same cd | 20:03 |
| Alvinware | gobby, yes, i do experiences some freezing of some application programs, like firefox, and some other, but i think it shouldn't cause your dad to reinstall the O.S. again. | 20:03 |
| sebsebseb | Gobby: the bot thing that's not it, sometimes synaptic can go wrong, but you can update via the commandline as well I think | 20:03 |
| b3rz3rk3r | mankeletor, glad to hear it :) | 20:03 |
| pavs | ok I compile ubuntu in lolcode. brb. | 20:04 |
| Gobby | Nah, he just fresh installed because yesterday he accidentally went over the edge with customizing and ended up reinstalling the os | 20:04 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Gobby, haha, we have all been there :p | 20:04 |
| sebsebseb | b3rz3rk3r: not me :) | 20:04 |
| Alvinware | Gobby, just don't be quick, be patient, do one thing after another, if not any application programs will hang too. | 20:05 |
| Gobby | It now randomly freezes. | 20:05 |
| Gobby | like during firefox, etc. | 20:05 |
| sebsebseb | Gobby: I guess some where is the hidden .folder for synaptic in home, and if it's removed, when synaptic is re opended it will be like it was first used, and then maybe it will work | 20:05 |
| b3rz3rk3r | i retract my previous statement. We have all been there, except sebsebseb :p | 20:05 |

| Jekyll | re-hi. after all the trip with fstab, my partitions mount automatically, but i still can't write anything on them. i've used the options rw and user and still the same thing. what option should i include? | 20:19 |
| Chrystallic | b3rz3rk3r, If I get him to send me the code, you want me to try to send it to you? | 20:19 |
| KewliOO | How do I get permission to set it then | 20:19 |
| KewliOO | ?? | 20:19 |
| sebsebseb | Alvinware: they use this excuse a lot, for no Linux versions, Desktop Linux does not have enough market share yet | 20:19 |
| JuanJOBC | dpkg: error processing mysql-server-5.1 (--configure): | 20:19 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, Is Wine working on it to make it compatible? | 20:19 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, sudo i guess? | 20:19 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, does it ask you for a password to modify it, or give you errors? | 20:20 |
| sebsebseb | Alvinware: I think the main thing for Wine is to get a lot more games working well, and Directx | 20:20 |
| msds1502 | mk13: i just installed windows 7 and tried to use NeoGRUB from easyBCD, it won't let me boot back into ubuntu (error 17). I loaded back up into a LiveCD and reinstalled GRUB from there. | 20:20 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Chrystallic, like i said, a bit out of my depth, my coding is basic to say the least | 20:20 |
| KewliOO | I don't know how to set it in terminal...i've ben doin it under edit connections | 20:20 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, yeah, noticeably. | 20:20 |
| Chronopoulos | gparted? anyone? | 20:20 |
| Chronopoulos | suggestions? | 20:20 |
| sebsebseb | Alvinware: http://appdb.winehq.org check it out | 20:20 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Chronopoulos, what about it? | 20:21 |
| Chronopoulos | i'm trying to expand my filesystem partition into unallocated space | 20:21 |
| msds1502 | MK13: I think i might try removing the Vista bootloader and just booting straight from GRUB. I just want all my options on one list | 20:21 |
| Chronopoulos | but gparted won't let me | 20:21 |
| KewliOO | but when I type in the ifconfig in terminal is shows the mask as 255.255.255.0 | 20:21 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Chronopoulos, what is the error? | 20:21 |
| Alvinware | But i hope some other developer will do the Nokia PC Suite too, because Nokia mobile phone are used by millions of users around the world, and Linux is gaining the popularity. | 20:21 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, so the mask is correct? | 20:21 |
| Chronopoulos | doesn't give an error, just the resize button is greyed out | 20:21 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Chronopoulos, partition still mounted? | 20:22 |
| msds1502 | Chronopoulos: to make unallocated space, try shrinking the file system, not making unallocated bigger | 20:22 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, I have visited that site already, yesterday, in malaysia. | 20:22 |
| MK13 | msds1502, that is what i did, also you would need to install grub to your linux partition (not MBR), repair Win7, then add ubuntu to Win7 using bcdedit | 20:22 |
| Chronopoulos | yes it's mounted | 20:22 |
| Chronopoulos | msds1502: i'm trying to expand the partition, not the unallocated space | 20:22 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: | 20:22 |
| KewliOO | yes | 20:22 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, anyways, thank for being friendly helpful again. | 20:22 |
| msds1502 | Chronopoulos: oh, my bad | 20:22 |
| sebsebseb | msds1502: yes Grub can boot up both Ubuntu and Vista, no problem | 20:22 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: the mask is right in the terminal...but still no internet | 20:22 |
| Gilles | Anyone here use Openbox? I use it (no GNOME) and can't find out how to get a sleep function working? | 20:23 |
| Chronopoulos | and yes b3rz3rk3r, it's mounted (as i'm using it right now) | 20:23 |
| sebsebseb | Alvinware: when was last time? | 20:23 |
| === coz_ is now known as c0z | ||
| b3rz3rk3r | Chronopoulos, that is why then ;) | 20:23 |
| === c0z is now known as coz_ | ||
| Chronopoulos | errr | 20:23 |
| Onca | Could someone demystify, why my newly compiled vanilla kernel conflicts with gnome's HAL service? Though the keyboard and mouse work fine in a terminal, when X starts I don't have any mouse or keyboard and I get a "Failed to initialize hal" Did I omit something important in my kernel? | 20:23 |
| guntbert | Chronopoulos: you cannot change a mounted partition, use the live CD | 20:23 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, are you getting the ip from the router? | 20:23 |
| Chronopoulos | ah | 20:23 |
| msds1502 | sebsebseb: Problem is, i have 3 OS right now. When i try to boot XP, it loads my vista loader (XP and bootloader are on hd0,0 and win 7 is on hd1,0 ) | 20:23 |
| KewliOO | yesd | 20:23 |
| Chronopoulos | thank you guntbert | 20:23 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: yes | 20:23 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, I think it's about a week ago, but then still not helpful enough like this time do. | 20:24 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Chronopoulos, you can get a livecd version and it will work just fine | 20:24 |
| Chronopoulos | ok | 20:24 |
| Chronopoulos | thanks much! :D | 20:24 |
| sebsebseb | Gilles: sleep is once of those issues with Linux, well depends on the computer, but you can probably configure it and get it working if you know how, also I expect not many people that use Ubuntu use OpenBox, your issue is kind of general so could give ##linux a try as well | 20:24 |
| guntbert | Chronopoulos: you're welcome | 20:24 |
| Chronopoulos | good day | 20:24 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, are you in the correct workgroup? | 20:24 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: the only address I don't know if it is right6 is the Broadcast Address which is 192.168.0.255 | 20:24 |
| Gilles | sebsebseb Okay thanks | 20:24 |
| sebsebseb | Gilles: good luck | 20:25 |
| sebsebseb | one not once above | 20:25 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: how do I see what workgroup i'm in | 20:25 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, if you are still not getting net.. you could share the connection form another machine that can conenct | 20:25 |
| b3rz3rk3r | connect* | 20:25 |
| guntbert | Onca: as far as I know self compiled kernels are not supported here | 20:25 |
| Onca | guntbert, Ic, but can I remove hal somehow? | 20:25 |
| msds1502 | sebsebseb: any idea how to tell grub to skip the Vista loader? | 20:25 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: I am sharing the connection I'm useing now | 20:26 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, Could i put .gif as my wallpaper? | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | Onca: Hal is on the verge of being replaced, with something else | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | Alvinware: maybe not sure | 20:26 |
| guntbert | Onca: I don't think so (at the moment, as sebsebseb pointed out) | 20:26 |
| sebsebseb | msds1502: so you have Grub? and then when you choose Vista, it goes to the Vista boot loader? | 20:27 |
| b3rz3rk3r | KewliOO, ok now im confused.. the cable you are running from your pc.. is it going to the router or another computer? | 20:27 |
| Alvinware | sebsebseb, How to get back the capability of the VLC for the movie/video to wallpaper? | 20:27 |
| sebsebseb | Alvinware: I don't know and I got to go | 20:27 |
| b3rz3rk3r | sebsebseb, later man | 20:28 |
| msds1502 | sebsebseb: Yea. I want grub to list WinXP and Win7, but not have to go to the windows loader... do i just need to have easy BCD remove the Windows loader? | 20:28 |
| sebsebseb | b3rz3rk3r: sure, even though we didn't chat | 20:28 |
| b3rz3rk3r | :p | 20:28 |
| KewliOO | b3rz3rk3: I have a main pc that has a wireless card in it that is connected to a router and through the ICS I can use the internet on all machines...the router is only a switch | 20:28 |
| KewliOO | But I had Ubuntu setup before like this and it worked fine | 20:28 |
| sebsebseb | msds1502: yeah or something like that, people in ##windows may be able to help, in fact Linux users go in there to as well, I have to go | 20:28 |

| JuanJOBC | bucky, YES, if you followed all the stuff that I have been writing here FOR 2 HOURS NOW you would know that that was one of the things that erUSUL told me to do, ok¿? | 21:42 |
| bucky | JuanJOBC: maybe they updated the package and your computer isnt' aware of the new version number | 21:42 |
| bucky | JuanJOBC: maybe they updated the package and your computer isnt' aware of the new version number | 21:42 |

| erUSUL | mobidroid: suppose in a rule 50 you give the node MODE="0666" if the rule 51 give MODE="0667" the mode will be the last one | 21:42 |

| erUSUL | roc: i really dunno sorry. not familiar with the netbook version | 22:14 |
| sonism | sfmadmax: yes it does | 22:15 |
| frostburn | sfmadmax, it does, rdp and rdpv5 | 22:15 |
| roc | erUSUL: no i know... but how about the normal version... is there a possibility to reset everything, without new install or something? | 22:15 |
| sfmadmax | thanks guys.. i'll be dammed.. didnt know that was out there! | 22:15 |
| Roasted | sonism - does he need to have forwarded ports on his rotuer to do that, though? | 22:15 |
| erUSUL | roc: you can create a new user and see if the problem happens when login as him | 22:16 |

| sonism | Roasted: i think so... | 22:16 |
| roc | erUSUL: ok ... will try that one out | 22:16 |
| Roasted | sonism - that's a problem. If I can't explain to him how to connect to a wireless network he sure as hell won't be able to forward ports on his router. I want something (like a basic, free version, obviously) of osmething like Dell has where you just type in an acct number and they remote in. | 22:16 |

| edbian | box02: Explain to me in greater detail what you're trying to do. Do you simply have a file that you need to make executable? | 22:40 |
| sonism | losher: ok, ok, sorry... | 22:40 |
| nawk | edbian: see, here's the thing. i'd like a media player (not center) that allows you to organize your media files into a library of playlists. What I really like about Rhythmbox is that there is a search field | 22:40 |
| NantoRokuseiken | how can i disable that beep my pc does when i delete files or use tab for autocomplete a command in console? | 22:40 |
| arand | azmo: Hehe, linux and beer seems inexplicably linked... and now we're reeling offtopic I think... | 22:40 |
| losher | sonism: no problem. Just watching your back.... | 22:40 |
| ugliefrog | Dr_Willis: ubuntutweak? all one word...ill google it | 22:40 |
| sonism | losher: :D | 22:40 |
| edbian | NantoRokuseiken: to turn it off systemwide: "sudo modprobe -r pcspkr" | 22:40 |
| Dr_Willis | ugliefrog: or try 2 words.. :) | 22:41 |
| box02 | @edbian I have some fonts and some destop_file to install with python install script which I wrote | 22:41 |
| edbian | NantoRokuseiken: This command removes the module "pcspkr" which is like the driver for the pc speaker | 22:41 |
| defrysk | ugliefrog, its not supported | 22:41 |
| nawk | again, if banshee wasn't buggy it'd be something enjoy | 22:41 |
| ScottG | Whats a good program for checking the health of a HD? There is something wrong with mine. Its acting very slow. | 22:41 |
| defrysk | gtweakui however is supported | 22:41 |
| edbian | box02: You wrote your own install script and you need to make it executable? | 22:41 |
| losher | edbian: NantoRokuseiken: that should work, but it *will* come back after reboot.... | 22:41 |
| NantoRokuseiken | edbian: thanks!!! :) | 22:41 |
| azmo | arand well its still about login.. id like beers that open themselves.. | 22:41 |
| box02 | @edbian, yes, it is | 22:41 |
| Dr_Willis | nat2610: blacklist the psckpr module disables the system beep for most everything. | 22:41 |
| Gilles | Anyone know if http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=564649 is fixed in Ubuntu? :/ | 22:41 |
| edbian | NantoRokuseiken: Yes losher is correct. | 22:41 |
| Digitall | hello I want to know if ubuntu 9.04 supports all Broadcom wireless integrated cards...last time I ran Gutsy I ended up having to install custom drivers and it was a pain | 22:42 |
| Dr_Willis | oops | 22:42 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: blacklist the psckpr module disables the system beep for most everything. | 22:42 |
| redstrings | dude yea | 22:42 |
| azmo | arand btw linux, beer'n' bitches ;) and there we are at IRC aragin huh | 22:42 |
| edbian | box02: "chmod +x /path/to/file.py" | 22:42 |
| NantoRokuseiken | edbian: so how can i completely disable it? | 22:42 |
| edbian | box02: You might need to be root, not sure. | 22:42 |
| NantoRokuseiken | edbian: i cant do anything from alsamixer? | 22:42 |
| free1 | that's linux pimpin' pimpin' | 22:42 |
| free1 | you already know | 22:42 |
| redstrings | boats n' hoes | 22:42 |
| psycho_oreos | Digitall, it depends on the model of the chipset.. broadcom doesn't support linux or any other alternative platform unfortunately, most of the drivers are reverse-engineered, etc | 22:43 |
| edbian | NantoRokuseiken: Do you want it disabled system wide or just for your user? (The user choice is easier :) ) | 22:43 |
| Semon | FloodBot1 | 22:43 |
| Semon | u mak flood | 22:43 |
| NantoRokuseiken | edbian: i prefer system wide | 22:43 |
| devZero | yo, trying to install Ubuntu server on my Intel C2D Mac Mini. The installer boots up fine, but when I hit the "Install Ubuntu Server" options, I get a blank screen, and my keyboard stops working. Any ideas here? | 22:43 |
| Digitall | thanks psycho_oreos I guess I will have it to give it a try and see what happens | 22:43 |
| edbian | NantoRokuseiken: Excellent! :) First we need to make a script. PM me :) | 22:43 |
| devZero | this install is without bootcamp, using a c2d mac mini, and a standard apple aluminum keyboard. | 22:44 |
| psycho_oreos | Digitall, do lspci and pastebin it | 22:44 |
| box02 | @edbian, yes, when I did it after installation manually, it works. But I mean .. after installation, I don't want to run those command line manually. I think it should be done by install script automatically | 22:44 |
| losher | devZero: does a mac mini run osx? | 22:44 |
| devZero | losher: aye | 22:44 |
| Digitall | psycho_oreos I'm running XP right now | 22:44 |
| psycho_oreos | Digitall, ahh that wouldn't help ;) | 22:45 |
| edbian | box02: I'm confused? After you've modified the permissions of a file they stay that way until you change them again. | 22:45 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: the thing to rember is the system 'beep' is using the pc (on the motherboard) speaker. Not the soundcard. | 22:45 |
| Digitall | psycho_oreos give me a few minutes and I will see if I can look up the exact card i got | 22:45 |
| losher | devZero: almost pointless running ubuntu on it then. It's a bsd variation underneath. It should be able to do anything a ubuntu distro can, and more.... | 22:45 |
| psycho_oreos | Digitall, kk | 22:45 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: removing the psckpr module will also stop the beepiong in the console and other places that use the actual pc 'speaker' NOT those that use the soundcard. | 22:45 |
| mechtech | true losher: Mac OS X rules | 22:46 |
| brodymcd | I have a Vista/Ubuntu dual-boot with Dell recorery partition... and I need some partition help... can someone help me? | 22:46 |
| devZero | losher: I'm aware what osx is... I want to run a headless, gui-less installation of ubuntu. No reason I couldn't | 22:46 |
| mechtech | !ask | brodymcd | 22:46 |
| ubottu | brodymcd: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 22:46 |
| devZero | ugh... nvm. I'll just check the framebuffer settings, and move on. | 22:46 |
| NantoRokuseiken | Dr_Willis: are you sure about that ? | 22:46 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: yes. | 22:46 |
| box02 | @edbian no, after installation and then I modified permissions and it work. if I don't modify permission after installation, it doesn't work | 22:47 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: i disabled teh pcspkr module the oter day on a very quirky laptop that beeped VERY VERY VERY loudly on shutdown.. | 22:47 |
| losher | devZero: I suppose. but to expect the result to be more stable or better supported or in almost any way superior is a mistake. Is there no headless server option for osx? | 22:47 |
| mechtech | Dr_Willis is the man | 22:47 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: next time you look at a motherboard. lookj closely - you should be able to see a little bity 'speaker' on it about the size of a dime. :) ages ago there was 2 wires going to an actual speaker in the case. | 22:47 |
| edbian | box02: I'm sorry but I just don't understand :( | 22:48 |
| box02 | @edbian ,, usually after installation, we needn't change permission to work them. | 22:48 |
| losher | Dr_Willis: *now* I feel old... | 22:48 |
| brodymcd | OK - so... my laptop has a Vista partition, Dell recovery partition, Ubuntu 8.10 and swap - I have a big (55 gig) chunk unallocated that I wanted to set as a Data NTFS for both OS's to see... but gparted says I have 4 (the max)... how can I fix this somehow? I can't use those 55 gig as is. | 22:48 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: ages ago we would do a 'speakerdectomoty' and either remove the wires, speaker, or put some cotton/tape over the things. | 22:48 |
| box02 | @edbian: I'm sorry too because of my weak english | 22:48 |
| Dr_Willis | NantoRokuseiken: or for the elite - solder in a control to adjust teh volume. ;) | 22:48 |
| devZero | losher: you're making absolutely no sense... A mac mini can run anything a pc can run... It's an intel based hardware system just like anything else. I'm using it for specific purposes, and I while I appreciate what you're trying to do. You obvisouly don't understand, and shouldn't be trying to help me. | 22:48 |
| box02 | @edbian: I will show you a part of my script | 22:49 |
| devZero | my issue was solved by adding nofb to the boot line. | 22:49 |
| egaudet_ | brodymcd, you need an extended partition | 22:49 |
| === jackson is now known as jackson_ | ||
| mechtech | Speaking of feeling old...anyone remember HAVING to use 5 1/2" floppies 2 at a time because there was no such thing as "Hard Drive"? | 22:49 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: Sounds like you need to make your partitions logical partitions rather than all primary partitions | 22:49 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: thjats somthing i always disable on new installs. :) | 22:49 |
| edbian | box02: sure | 22:49 |
| edbian | box02: Pastebin it | 22:49 |

| losher | devZero: well I guess you told me.... | 22:50 |
| Dr_Willis | mechtech: yes.. and i still have some. | 22:50 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: I'm a CentOS guy by choice... But I thought I'd give this a try. | 22:50 |
| box02 | @edbian: please give me Pastebin link | 22:50 |
| mechtech | Dr_Willis: LOL | 22:50 |
| brodymcd | egaudet-how do I do that now? I have a screenshot of what I have if that would help | 22:50 |
| devZero | I notmally don't run linux with a framebuffer or a gui, but ubuntu is a bit new to me... Wasn't sure if the grub cli was different | 22:50 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: framebufer i find causes issues on a lot of disrtos.. dependign on the video card/X versions | 22:50 |
| mechtech | devZero: What is CentOS? | 22:50 |
| guntbert | !paste | box02 | 22:50 |
| ugliefrog | mechtech: I do, I remeber being told one when i bought a 20 meg hard drive the guy said u will never uses all of it :) | 22:50 |

| devZero | CentOS = Community Enterprise Operating System | 22:50 |
| devZero | it's a RHEL clone | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: grub should work almost idencically on all disrtos. :) ubuntu does have some extra 'commented settings' in the menu.lst used by 'update-grub' but thtas about it. | 22:51 |
| ShadowAp3x | it's the RedHat source code compiled by the community | 22:51 |
| mechtech | CHILDREN OF THE 70's UNITE! | 22:51 |
| arand | Dr_Willis: actually that is not true on some laptops, I had one that sent the pcspkr beep through the headphone out if connected, full blast >_< | 22:51 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: you would think so, but this is not always the case. | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | arne: mine did also.. but still disabling the psckr module stopped that. | 22:51 |
| mechtech | devZero: thanks | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: wait for grub2 to get in use. :) | 22:51 |
| Dr_Willis | arne: that was the MAIN issue i looked into the problem for.. i got sick of getting my ears blasted when i shutdown with headsets on. | 22:52 |
| phiplan | 2~2~ | 22:52 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: I'm apprently out of the linux world loop... I didn't even know they had Grub2 | 22:52 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: Yep. :) you been under a rock! :0 | 22:52 |
| kevdog | >-) | 22:52 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: actually the normal grub is now called 'grub-legacy' i think.. and the new grub is going to be 'grub' | 22:52 |
| kevdog | hello boys (and girls!) | 22:53 |
| devZero | yeah, I spend my days in OS X or CentOS... I use images and manage my own yum repo... So 90% of the time, I don't change much. Except maybe the occasional kernel :) | 22:53 |
| box02 | @edbian: http://pastebin.com/m590fafe9 please have a look my script | 22:53 |
| mechtech | !hi | kevdog | 22:53 |
| ubottu | kevdog: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 22:53 |
| arand | Dr_Willis: been there, done the same, pcspkr must die. | 22:53 |
| edbian | box02: Give me a minute while I get a grip on it | 22:53 |
| box02 | edbian: yes | 22:53 |
| brodymcd | I have max primary partitions on my hd - can someone help me set up an extended? | 22:53 |
| * kevdog at least the computer likes me | 22:53 | |
| Dr_Willis | arand: yep. there was some odd quirk with GNOME where when it shutdown it beeped several times on that one machine.. but not any others. | 22:53 |
| Dr_Willis | brodymcd: you can have 4 primaries MAX. one or More of those can be a 'extended' partition. that can then hold a large # of logicals.. thats how it works | 22:54 |
| Dr_Willis | brodymcd: if you have 4 primaries and need 'more' then you have to convert one to a extended/logical | 22:54 |
| edbian | box02: Ok so the script installs fonts and such. What is your issue? | 22:55 |
| Starbucks | Hey guys, Im wanting to check about whether or not my two favorite games, Spore + GA expansion and Sims 3 will work on ubuntu please? Also whether theres a way to get a speedtouch 330 modem to work. Thanks. | 22:55 |
| brodymcd | Dr_Willis: if my paritions are already set... how can I change one to be "extended?" I just don't want to have to blow away my install and start again | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | brodymcd: and only way i know of to 'convert' is to backup all data.. delete, remake the partition as extended/logicals | 22:55 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: Question... is ext3 still king? Or has XFS gone more mainstream? | 22:55 |
| Xodiac13 | ! kubuntu | 22:55 |
| ubottu | Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE | 22:55 |
| kevdog | Anyone have a more reliable backup solution than unison? | 22:55 |
| Dr_Willis | brodymcd: ive never sene a way to just 'switch a primari to a extended' always had to delete/remake it. (which is trivial IF theres no data on it) | 22:56 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: you have been under a rock if youve not heard about ext4 :P | 22:56 |
| box02 | @edbian: issue is that after installing font from that script, font connot be seen, desktop icon not on menu so on | 22:56 |
| candrodor | This has happened a few times now. I close firefox. The process is no longer listed in the process list. Start it up again. I get the "Starting Firefox" thing on the taskbar, but then it vanishes. Launch it again, same thing happens. I collect a load of sleeping firefox processes in the list, but no window. | 22:56 |
| candrodor | Any ideas? | 22:56 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: you dont hear much about xfs at all these days | 22:56 |
| brodymcd | Dr_Willis: one of mine is listed as extended... can you take a look and see if there is a way to help it? | 22:56 |
| WindowsUser | candrodor: process list as in ps -ef |grep firefox? | 22:56 |
| edbian | box02: You have to run the script as root possibly? | 22:56 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: I would boot to a livecd and delete your swap partition, then you can create an extended partition and migrate your data over | 22:57 |
| edbian | I'm not sure! :( | 22:57 |
| box02 | @edbian: yes I have to run as root | 22:57 |
| Dr_Willis | brodymcd: if one is extended.. you can 'shrink' the ones alongside it.. then resize the extended and make new logicals in it perhaps. that will take quite a bit of time for gparted todo. and may require several steps | 22:57 |
| edbian | box02: Then I have no idea! :( Sorry bud | 22:57 |
| devZero | apparently... Yeah, haven't heard anything about ext4 | 22:57 |
| candrodor | WindowsUser: System -> Admin -> system monitor is what I've used, but I guess it might bet the same thing maybe? | 22:57 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: yep. :) you have definatly been out of the loop. ext4 to be the default for the next ubuntu release | 22:57 |
| Keiffer | edbian, hi! | 22:57 |
| box02 | @edbian: thank you for your effort and I'm also sorry to bother you. | 22:58 |
| Keiffer | hello everyone | 22:58 |
| brodymcd | Dr_Willis / ShadowAp3x - would someone please be willing to look at this screenshot and recommend best course of action? | 22:58 |
| devZero | ah. "is a series of backward compatible extensions to add 64-bit storage limits and other performance improvements to ext3" | 22:58 |

| box02 | @edbian: I will try to fix that problem .. thanks anyway .. bye | 22:58 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: sure, upload it to imageshack or something | 22:58 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: for the server, or just the desktop release? | 22:58 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: for all. | 22:58 |
| devZero | ew | 22:58 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: for the truely leet. :) | 22:59 |
| RanyAlbeg | How can i download all images from a website? | 22:59 |
| brodymcd | ShadowAp3x: http://img.waffleimages.com/4f73e950cf05dc435c66549b400d3faf91544527/Screenshot--dev-sda%20-%20GParted-1.png | 22:59 |
| devZero | no offense, but I'd rather test something on desktop releases, and then include it once it's 100% proven for server releases. | 22:59 |
| kevdog | Ranyalbeg -- Isnt there a firefox extension like download them all? | 22:59 |
| devZero | leet is another word for broken... | 22:59 |
| candrodor | Actually, it's looking like other thingsdon't really want to open now either. like Terminal opens a window,b ut doesn't respond or open fully. | 22:59 |
| mechtech | RanyAlbeg: select all copy, paste | 22:59 |
| gluonman | Firefox keeps crashing and spitting out a Segmentation Fault message. I can't even keep it open long enough to research the problem. What should I do? | 23:00 |
| arber4444 | hello can anybody say me where to get a sccreen recorder | 23:00 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: I got a fancy new pc.. a Vic-20 you may like! :0 | 23:00 |
| sonism | Dr_Willis: it's l33t :) | 23:00 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: you should be able to resize your /dev/sda4 | 23:00 |
| Keiffer | i would like too see some good looking ubuntus. themes, art etc | 23:00 |
| Dr_Willis | arber4444: 'recordmydesktop' in the package manager. | 23:00 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: very funny | 23:00 |
| mechtech | gluonman: use another browser to re-download ff | 23:00 |
| devZero | Well, I guess I'll hurry out and sell my octo core mac pro. | 23:01 |
| chief27 | Hi. Could anyone tell me how to change the xorg.conf driver to VESA instead of the intel driver? | 23:01 |
| RanyAlbeg | mechtech: you are a genius thanks! | 23:01 |
| gluonman | mechtech, I could do that, but I also want to learn what happened that this just started happening today. | 23:01 |
| brodymcd | ShadowAp3x: when I click it, resize is grayed out | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: i got an imacDV here.. its a good doorstop. | 23:01 |
| arber4444 | where is this paskage manager | 23:01 |
| mechtech | keiffer: mine looks pretty awesome | 23:01 |
| Keiffer | mechtech, can I see it? | 23:01 |
| Dr_Willis | arber4444: its called 'synaptic' in the menus somewhere. or use the command line pacakge manager tools | 23:01 |
| devZero | ugh... Ubuntu doesn't allow multi case username?! | 23:01 |
| devZero | lame. | 23:01 |
| th0r | gluonman: I would try moving ~/.mozilla and letting firefox set up totally new configs | 23:01 |
| mechtech | Keiffer: you mean come over to my place, cuz I don't remote | 23:01 |
| gluonman | th0r, alright. | 23:02 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: cant say that i recall any Unixlike OS that had user names being case senesitive. | 23:02 |
| mechtech | but...I can point you to where I found the themes I've got | 23:02 |
| devZero | I've done it in multiple os's | 23:02 |
| Keiffer | mechtech, a screenshot or two | 23:02 |
| th0r | gluonman: don't delete it, move it somewhere so if it is OK you still have it, if it is the problem you can find out why | 23:02 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: you don't have an external drive you can use to backup your hard drive data? | 23:02 |
| devZero | numerous *nix's | 23:02 |
| devZero | bsd's | 23:02 |
| mechtech | Keiffer: sure...what's that image-pastebin thing again? | 23:02 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: sounds liek a way to really confuse users then.. they have a hard enought time just rembering that passwords are case senesitive | 23:02 |
| Keiffer | mechtech, gnomelook? i haven't found any good themes | 23:03 |
| gluonman | th0r, right. Thanks. | 23:03 |
| solexious|netbk | Where can I get hardware recommendations? The ubuntu wiki is great, but only after you have found some thing and want to check up on it. | 23:03 |
| mechtech | Keiffer: yeah...using gnome | 23:03 |
| guntbert | brodymcd: none of /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6 may be mounted, so you best do it from a live CD | 23:03 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: I do this for critical accounts... We tell people to use variations in a password, why not a username as well?! | 23:03 |
| brodymcd | ShadowAp3x: I do... really don't have too much on there - guess I could do an Ubuntu reinstall if needed | 23:03 |
| Dr_Willis | solexious|netbk: check out the various sites that sell linunux preinstalled machines. and see what they offer. | 23:03 |
| Keiffer | mechtech, dunno that image pastebin site.. | 23:03 |
| Dr_Willis | devZero: yet another thing to rember/forget. | 23:03 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: As guntbert said, make sure those partitions are not mounted | 23:03 |
| arber4444 | thnx i got it | 23:04 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: you will not be able to resize the partition if you are running from the partition | 23:04 |
| devZero | Dr_Willis: not my problem... If you're not smart enough to remember your own user/pass combination, you don't belong in one of my machines. :P | 23:04 |
| devZero | not "you're" as in "you".. but generally speaking | 23:04 |
| anahata | hi room | 23:04 |
| brodymcd | ShadowAp3x: so... If I'm reading this right - boot from live cd, make sure extended is unmounted, then I can resize it to include the open 55 gigs? | 23:04 |
| shipwreck | how do I make a custom keyboard command that will shut down my computer? | 23:04 |
| mechtech | Keiffer: gimme a couple minutes to get all these ebooks off my desktop...torrented them and transmission was still set to download everything to the desktop...brb...we'll find the site, or we could share the file over AIM or something | 23:04 |
| Dr_Willis | till they come to you several dozen times a week.. then it is your problem. - 'it' guys are busy enough as it is. but its a moot argument.. linux dosent use case senesevive user names.. | 23:05 |
| ShadowAp3x | brodymcd: exactly. You can't resize the partition that you are currently using | 23:05 |
| anahata | does anyone know if the KDE in Kubuntu 9.04 is more stable than that in 8.04? | 23:05 |

| Proh | Hey... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=999549&page=4 ... Basically the same problem here, but I'm trying to type "all_generic_ide=1" like the bottom post suggests, to see if it fixes the issue... But uh, no luck. How do I type this command? F6 brings up a list to select from (I guess?) saying acpi=off, noapic, no1apic, edd=on, free software only... Wtf do I do? | 23:05 |
| Dr_Willis | anahata: the kde4 version is much more stable in 9.04 | 23:05 |

| rex2 | hi guys - i'm hoping someone here can help me investigate a problem i'm having with 9.04? | 23:24 |
| rex2 | periodically, my system seems to freeze up on some commands | 23:25 |
| ShadowAp3x | FloridiaGuy: It says capacity under *-cpu? | 23:25 |
| rex2 | so i'll be ssh'ed into the box, and if i do ps -eaf (for instance) the system freezes after printing around 20-30 issues | 23:25 |
| rex2 | ^processes, rahter | 23:26 |
| overclucker | ps -eaf locks up your system? | 23:26 |
| rex2 | yep | 23:26 |
| rex2 | well | 23:26 |
| rex2 | it locks up that ssh session | 23:26 |
| overclucker | ah | 23:26 |
| rex2 | and i have to open a new session | 23:26 |
| rex2 | but i cant shutdown either - it issues the command but never restarts | 23:27 |
| rex2 | the funny thing is (wrt ps) if i do just ps -ea (no f) it's fine | 23:27 |
| overclucker | ok, try: either narrowing with | grep fish, or ps -eaf > file.texxxt | 23:27 |
| Hagbard__ | does anyone know how to find the emacs install directory on my machine? | 23:27 |
| rex2 | but with the -f arg it hangs | 23:27 |

| bobwhoops | Hi all, if I want to use a machine as a server but still have a GUI, am I better off installing Ubuntu desktop or installing Ubuntu server and then installing X/gnome? | 23:29 |
| rex2 | the odd thing is that the system gets itself into this state where it freezes on commands after a (seemingly) arbirtary amount of time | 23:29 |

| ShadowAp3x | bobwhoops: just install using the server cd then do: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 23:30 |
| overclucker | easier to setup ubuntu desktop as a server, than it is to setup ubuntu-server with gnome | 23:30 |
| ShadowAp3x | that can work too | 23:30 |
| Hagbard__ | i'm trying to install lisp in a box but the emacs install it uses is old. how do i find the install file on my machine (which is the current version) | 23:30 |
| ShadowAp3x | bobwhoops: if you install using the server cd, it uses the server kernel | 23:30 |
| Hagbard__ | so i can copy it over to the lisp in a box folder | 23:30 |

| Kai` | mdg, nope no problems | 23:51 |
| mdg | underscan: I used it for a very short time | 23:51 |
| Paschu | whats better for an acer aspire one? Ubuntu netbook remix or the normal ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| mdg | Kai`: Cool! Thanks for the encouragement :) | 23:52 |
| underscan | mdg, Short because it ... sux? | 23:52 |
| godmodegrafix | not really, im a newbie to linux..but im trying to learn both linux and C simultaneously | 23:52 |
| mdg | underscan: No because of the card I was using | 23:52 |
| mdg | underscan: what kind of problem you having? | 23:52 |
| joaopinto | godmodegrafix, first you should learn how to use a shell | 23:52 |
| godmodegrafix | lol | 23:52 |
| euxneks | question regarding thunderbird, do I ask here? | 23:52 |
| godmodegrafix | i believe that comes with learning linux | 23:52 |
| goku12205 | hi | 23:52 |
| slipttees | BIOS bug, local APIC #0 not detected!..... forcing use of dummy APIC emulation. (tell your hw vendor) | 23:52 |
| joaopinto | godmodegrafix, right, but it comes before learning C | 23:52 |
| slipttees | please help :-( | 23:52 |
| godmodegrafix | i can move through directories if that's what youre asking | 23:53 |
| iceroot | euxneks: depending of, it is is a ubuntu-problem or a thunderbird-problem | 23:53 |
| euxneks | in thunderbird, if someone sends a receipt request, and I click cancel, does anything get sent to them? | 23:53 |
| overclucker | godmodegrafix, once you get the basiccs down, head over to http://linuxfromscratch.org they will give you the crash course | 23:53 |
| underscan | mdg, None really. I am currently running Crunchbang - primarily because I want a "slim" system and hence I am trying to get rid of most Gnome dependencies. | 23:53 |
| bazhang | slipttees, this is a hardware issue | 23:53 |
| iceroot | euxneks: no | 23:53 |
| euxneks | iceroot: thanks | 23:53 |
| mdg | underscan: crunchbang is cool! | 23:53 |
| mulle | can someone help me with proftp | 23:53 |
| godmodegrafix | i think i have the basics down, when it comes to operating the bash shell | 23:53 |
| iceroot | !ask | mulle | 23:53 |
| ubottu | mulle: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 23:53 |
| joaopinto | mulle, be more specific | 23:53 |
| th0r | underscan: I replaced network mangler with wicd...it seems to be quicker to connect, among other things | 23:53 |
| mdg | underscan: I love the keyboard shortcuts - you can really fly! | 23:53 |
| mulle | ok | 23:53 |
| slipttees | bazhang: howto fix * | 23:54 |
| Lancearate | I'm having difficulty with an intermittent hard crash in Ubuntu-9.04 AMD64 when attempting large file operations like backing up to a portable drive, or even regular use. How would I go about attempting to solve this problem? | 23:54 |
| bazhang | slipttees, perhaps ask in ##hardware, or contact your hardware vendor | 23:54 |
| underscan | mdg, Yep, I chose Crunchbang for my netbook primarily because I want to do most stuff via keyboard. I was actually thinking about a tiling WM. :) | 23:54 |
| mdg | th0r: Did you change the signal strength to Db? | 23:54 |
| ubuntu_ | ciao | 23:54 |
| th0r | mdg, no, but I have considered doing so | 23:54 |
| mulle | my conf file to proftp dosent work and have some exampels I have followed, I need with user permission | 23:54 |
| goku12205 | hello | 23:54 |
| bazhang | !it | ubuntu_ | 23:55 |
| ubottu | ubuntu_: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! (click col tasto destro sul nome del canale per entrare) | 23:55 |
| mdg | th0r: I found it worked better for me | 23:55 |
| underscan | th0r, OK. Did you encounter any problems with wicd? Did you do a revert to NetworkManager by any chance and did that go well? | 23:55 |
| godmodegrafix | thanks for the info though overclucker | 23:55 |
| overclucker | godmodegrafix, by working through LFS, you will familiarize yourself with setting up a build environment, and working with gcc | 23:55 |
| mdg | underscan: which WM? | 23:55 |
| slipttees | bazhang: thx | 23:55 |
| godmodegrafix | thanks overclucker | 23:55 |
| overclucker | yup | 23:55 |
| goku12205 | hi | 23:55 |
| godmodegrafix | i will check it out | 23:55 |
| th0r | mdg: I will give it a try. | 23:55 |
