| buckwild | I'll try thanks | 00:04 |
| corrupt_glxgears | thank you windwhinny, now I can't wait to try that with FFXI. It's runningt but for bad text. You just gave me an idea | 00:04 |
| windwhinny | corrupt_glxgears,what is FFXI? | 00:05 |
| Kingsy101 | that cant be the answer surely? "stay with 8.10 or change distros" ?? | 00:05 |

| acat | Even after googling, I'm not 100% clear on how to reinstall Ubuntu while keeping my /home directory, which is on a separate partition. Can someone briefly explain this to me or point me to a very simple guide on the matter? | 00:11 |
| fission62 | can you PM me so we can run through quickly | 00:11 |
| richardcavell | acat: Install Ubuntu on the / partition, and completely ignore your /home partition until after Ubuntu is fully installed. Then mount your /home partition in /etc/fstab manually | 00:11 |
| zack | i cant get youtube videos to play they have sound but no video what to do? | 00:11 |
| kongming | Is it possible to have custom /dev names? (Such as a flash drive?) (example /dev/foo) | 00:12 |
| corrupt_glxgears | zack what kind of gfx card? | 00:12 |
| asem | hi | 00:12 |
| Freeman | hi guys | 00:12 |
| zack | unsure it worked with windows but switch to unubuntu today now dont work | 00:12 |
| acat | richardcavell: Two questions: 1) Won't Ubuntu place a /home directory in the same partition as / ? 2) I never had to mount my /home partition in /etc/fstab before - how is this done? Are there special concerns since this /home is from a previous installation? | 00:12 |
| Freeman | how I could solve this error on my ubuntu server edition: 【Bug】halt: Unable to iterate IDE devices: NO such file or directory | 00:13 |
| Kingsy101 | so can someone help me with my issue... | 00:13 |
| Kingsy101 | ? | 00:13 |
| asem | hello | 00:13 |
| kongming | Kingsy101, what is your problem? | 00:13 |
| corrupt_glxgears | try lspci | grep VGA | 00:13 |
| Kingsy101 | kongming - I have ubuntu 8.10 working perfectly.. then as soon as I upgrade or clean install 9.04 I either get random crashing or a big long trace on boot | 00:14 |
| richardcavell | acat: 1. Yes it will, but after installing you can delete that directory's contents recursively and then mount the other partition in its place. 2. It's pretty simple - ask us when you're up to that part. The only special concern is that your userid and groupid have to be the same on the new installation for you to access your old files | 00:14 |
| windwhinny | Kingsy101,sometimes ,it happens | 00:14 |
| windwhinny | Kingsy101,try 64-bit ED? | 00:15 |
| Kingsy101 | windwhinny - I don't understand. what do you mean? I have been trying to get this installed all night, I have been tryin clean and upgrades NOTHING WORKS | 00:15 |
| Kingsy101 | windwhinny - my system is 32bit | 00:15 |
| acat | richardcavell: Just to help me understand this - when I previously opted to put /home on its own partition, did it automatically place the appropriate language in /etc/fstab? If I look there now, will I be able to discern this? | 00:16 |
| richardcavell | acat: yep | 00:16 |
| Kingsy101 | windwhinny - what should I do? | 00:16 |
| richardcavell | acat: type more /etc/fstab into a Terminal | 00:16 |
| windwhinny | Kingsy101，you can rebuild your system to 64-bit, it's ok | 00:16 |
| mneptok | Kingsy101: stick with 8.10? | 00:16 |
| brandon | >? | 00:17 |
| brandon | Um | 00:17 |
| Kingsy101 | mneptok - is that seriously the answer? a distro that cant be upgraded? | 00:17 |
| brandon | I need help with Venrtilo on Ubuntu 9.04 | 00:17 |
| windwhinny | Kingsy101，if the ubuntu-9.04-32-bit don't work will, don't use it anymore | 00:17 |
| mneptok | Kingsy101: what SATA chipset do you have? what video chipset? are there known issues with the kernel driver in either? what about other chipsets and their associated drivers in the 9.04 kernel? does it persist on 9.10 dailies? | 00:17 |
| Kingsy101 | mneptok - I have no idea | 00:18 |
| mneptok | Kingsy101: then you might want to stick with what you know works. | 00:18 |
| brandon | Can anyone help me with ventrilo for ubuntu 9.04 im having trouble with talking in it i can hear but no one hears me | 00:19 |
| mattgyver | My internet connection is very slow on my 9.04 desktop however no other machines are slow, what can i check? | 00:19 |
| Raenir | the EULA screen of EVE Online is still bugged | 00:20 |
| windwhinny | Kingsy101， try another edition | 00:20 |
| Kingsy101 | mneptok - I know what yout saying it just sounds a little crazy.. does this mean I am never going to be able to upgrade? | 00:20 |
| joeyeye | mattgyver: what network connection does your 9.04 use ? | 00:20 |
| Kingsy101 | windwhinny - another edition? what do you mean? like what? | 00:20 |
| mattgyver | joeyeye, wired connection | 00:20 |
| bucky | mattgyver: ping your router and see if you have any dropped packets | 00:20 |
| joeyeye | mattgyver: and what's the network card ? | 00:21 |
| windwhinny | Kingsy101,suse fedora,kubuntu,and so on | 00:21 |
| brandon | Is a special channel i have to go to to get help for ventrilo? | 00:21 |
| mattgyver | bucky, no dropped packets | 00:21 |
| acat | richardcavell: So when the partition editor comes up on the live CD installation routine, do I choose "install them side by side, choosing between them each startup"? | 00:21 |
| Kingsy101 | windwhinny - will that be a big change? i.e does suse have stuff like apt-get nautilus ? etc? | 00:22 |
| bucky | mattgyver: is your nameserver the same as the other computers' | 00:22 |
| richardcavell | acat: that has nothing to do with your /home partition. That determines how many operating systems you'll be left with after installation | 00:22 |
| Drained | can anyone tell me a good resolution to run ubuntu on? like 1240x1024 is really nice on windows but ubuntu doesn't really make it seem as good. | 00:22 |
| mattgyver | bucky, that im not too sure of, how could i check? | 00:22 |
| bobo | joeyeye, check your pms | 00:22 |
| michael | Drained: it depends on your monitor man | 00:22 |
| bucky | mattgyver: cat /etc/resolv.conf on ubuntu | 00:22 |
| Drained | it's a 17' Crt :\ | 00:23 |
| acat | richardcavell: Well, what options do I choose in the ubuntu installer? It's not made obvious. If you want to pass me off to a guide on the subject, I'm OK with that, but I can't find one that inspires confidence that I'll keep my /home directory. :-) | 00:23 |

| bucky | mattgyver: that usually sucks.. anyway do an ifconfig and see if you have any dropped | 00:24 |

| mneptok | Kingsy101: it means that you should wait for 9.10, boot it from a LiveCD, and see if you have similar problems. | 00:24 |
| acat | richardcavell: OK, but what options do I select in the ubuntu installer - obviously not "use the entire disk" so....? | 00:24 |

| mneptok | Kingsy101: i would. but i value my time, and don;t like beating my head against walls. ;) | 00:25 |
| Kingsy101 | mneptok - just curious, is there a release date for 9.10? | 00:25 |
| mneptok | Kingsy101: "October" | 00:25 |

However, I don't understand, and this is what I had trouble finding on google: What do I select in order to keep my /home and use it later? Obviously not "use the entire disk" so I'm left with manual or side-by-side. So let's say I do manual. Now what? | 00:26 |
| kesiode | dare, I usually use alt+f2 and then firefox | 00:26 |
| dare | you must use firefox-3.5 | 00:26 |

| dare | kesiode, alt+f2 and then firefox-3.5 | 00:27 |

| richardcavell | acat: don't tell the installer that it exists | 00:27 |

| dare | at least it has been on the last two laptops i installed ubuntu on | 00:29 |
| styol | mdg i ended up deciding that it was just time to try and reinstall ubuntu and thus far, its been a mistake lol | 00:29 |
| boss_mc | tsai: 64bit flash support is pretty sketchy | 00:29 |
| tsai | dare: what should I do? | 00:29 |
| dare | open sound preferences | 00:29 |

| mdg | styol: did you mini come with a USB with software on it? | 00:31 |
| windwhinny | donnybrasco,sorry ,my English is bad,i can't help you out | 00:31 |

| styol | "to small to be automatically partitioned" | 00:32 |

| styol | joeyeye: but im totally open to any suggestions | 00:34 |

| canthus13 | [zz]: I've been looking for a fix for quite a while. | 00:34 |

| mattgyver | bucky, joeyeye, i notice that my network connections page shows my wired connection is 'never' used. lspci shows my controller set as bridge, is that normal? | 00:34 |

| canthus13 | [zz]: Heh. I've been trying to find a fix for it for months. I may have to learn to program to fix it. :) | 00:36 |
| joeyeye | styol: what's the hard drive capacity and type and age of computer ? | 00:36 |

| Cryptic_Donkey | I would have suspected that installing kde from the reporitoeies would have taken care of the plasmoid wifi application | 00:37 |

| styol | mdg and joeyeye -- this is what it warns me before actually installing http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/9215/quickshottrfdh.png and then this is what it errors during install http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/1269/quickshottrcev.png | 00:44 |
| zamba | AsgardBeast: but basically a program where a task is specified and then the (human) resources needed to complete the task is specified.. and then the different users can either select task or get assigned them | 00:44 |
| zamba | tasks* | 00:45 |
| AsgardBeast | zamba : Like a help desk system? | 00:45 |
| Guest72017 | any idea? | 00:45 |
| rayok | tcrommie: does the sound work in anything else besides ubuntu? | 00:45 |
| zamba | AsgardBeast: hm.. no.. | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest72017: i would guess you either burnt/installed teh wrong cd/iso file.. or you are confused about 32/64bit. how are you 'seeing its 32bit' | 00:45 |
| zamba | AsgardBeast: more than one person can be assigned to a task | 00:45 |
| Dr_Willis | Could be a missnamed iso file.. but thats doubtfull. | 00:46 |
| zamba | AsgardBeast: and a task may have more than one needed resource "pools" | 00:46 |
| tcrommie | Nbuntu is the only thing on the dell mini | 00:46 |
| Guest72017 | Dr_Willis: absolutlly sure that is amd64 bit | 00:46 |
| zamba | AsgardBeast: to be more specific.. this is for a company that's in live concert and event production | 00:46 |
| rayok | maybe try a live cd from a different disto? trying to see if its hardware or software :) | 00:46 |
| windwhinny | Guest72017,64bit system can run 32bit application | 00:46 |
| zamba | AsgardBeast: so we have one group of people that handles sound engineering and one that handles light.. and then also some that has to do the driving.. and the setup.. and so on.. | 00:47 |
| Dr_Willis | Guest72017: so how are you seeing its 32bit os then? | 00:47 |
| Guest72017 | windwhinny: i have 4 GB ram and dual core CPU i will 64bit no 32bit | 00:47 |
| th0r | tcrommie: have you done an update recently? | 00:47 |

| === nuada is now known as nuada1234 | ||
| AsgardBeast | zamba : Thats right. Missed that part. | 00:55 |
| zamba | Harryy: auth.log.1 is logrotate rotating the logs | 00:56 |
| styol | mdg on the left click there is no Wireless Network option like there used to be, however on right mouse click there is "Edit Wireless Networks" which wasnt appearing in the real system, but it just loads a manager with no AP's listed | 00:56 |
| Harryy | zamba: okay. about the rest of my question though? | 00:56 |
| zamba | Harryy: auth.log will be the file with the latest entries in | 00:56 |
| zamba | Harryy: no, i believe fail2ban will only use auth.log (or the one file you specify) | 00:56 |
| Harryy | zamba: but why when i start sshd, it doesnt make nor try to access my auth.log file? | 00:57 |
| Harryy | and when I ssh in, it doesnt log me etc | 00:57 |
| losher | IsmAvatar: people tell me that testdisk http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk sometimes restores lost partitions... | 00:57 |
| zamba | Harryy: try restarting syslog instead | 00:57 |
| mdg | styol: is there an enable networking option there? | 00:57 |
| zamba | Harryy: see what happens then | 00:57 |
| zamba | Harryy: and remove the auth.log-file you've created | 00:57 |
| styol | mdg yeah | 00:57 |
| fission62 | i installed through wubi and now i need to partition more space for / i am basically out, what are my options | 00:57 |
| styol | mdg and it is checked | 00:57 |
| zamba | Harryy: so, to summarize.. remove auth.log and restart syslog | 00:57 |
| Harryy | zamba: okay. so stop it and remove all auto.log* files? | 00:58 |
| zamba | Harryy: yup | 00:58 |
| Harryy | k ill brb then | 00:58 |

| Drained | Blah, sorry i don't know then. | 01:02 |
| zamba | mankash: everything in linux is a file, so nothing it tied to the underlying hardware | 01:02 |
| ceil420 | :| | 01:02 |
| zip | ceil420, unmount....then you should be able to free up that and move it.. | 01:02 |
| ceil420 | i don't like crap on my desktop | 01:03 |
| mankash | zamba: but kernel is | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | !fsck | 01:03 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 01:03 |

| Drained | it keeps crashing for me :( | 01:03 |
| Dr_Willis | rayok: its best to let the thing check... | 01:03 |
| mdg | styol: I thought you were running ubuntu from a USB flash drive on our mini | 01:03 |
| zamba | Harryy: and give it time to flush the log entries to disk | 01:04 |
| ceil420 | zip, how do i not have an icon while the drive is mounted? | 01:04 |
| styol | mdg: yeah i am thats what i meant | 01:04 |
| mankash | zamba: I can simply change the motherboard without touching ubuntu install | 01:04 |
| rayok | ok.. then is there anyway to tell which file(s) on the hd that make it stop for a while? | 01:04 |
| stew | DeSian: you need libapache2-mod-php5, mysql-server, php5-mysql | 01:04 |

| Drained | hello?, ANYONE else having problems connecting to jockey backend??? | 01:04 |
| zamba | mankash: in theory, at least :) | 01:04 |
| Harryy | zamba: relogged in. "sudo nano /etc/log/auth.log" gives me "New File", and if I tab on "auth", it doesnt give me any options | 01:04 |
| zamba | mankash: but i'm pretty confident that it'll work just perfectly | 01:04 |
| styol | mdg just my particular usb stick isnt mentioned cause its a usb adapter with a sd plugin.. | 01:05 |
| DeSian | stew, nice to see you her :) but bei command line installation was as one package LAMP server. | 01:05 |

| m1dlg | DrWillis, one more - I was copying some files (about 300Gb worth) from a folder on the desktop and the file browser windows and the file operations window disapeared and so did all my desktop icons too. I can't find the remaining 50odd gb folder on the desktop, has it gone, or will a fsck fix it? | 01:06 |

| m1dlg | It's the files on the desktop thats missing, so I guess a HDD failure is iminent | 01:09 |
| aaroninfidel | rayok: and I can't find any versions lower then 1.1.18 that are supported by 9.04 | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | Drained: learn the command 'locate sources.list' :) | 01:09 |
| m1dlg | I'm going to try a go with spinrite tomorrow | 01:09 |
| Drained | and waste cpu searching for something that im in the directory of? no thanks. | 01:09 |
| maodun | i have a vpn connection up, such that i have an interface 'tun0'. i would like to route all my traffic through tun0 - it seems i can use 'route' to do this, but i don't know exactly what to do with route. is anyone familiar with it? | 01:09 |
| stew | DeSian: "aptitude search '~Dlibapache2-mod-php5~Dphp5-mysql~Dmysql-server'" would find packages depending on all three, but I dont' think there is one existing just for this purpose | 01:09 |
| rayok | hrm.. 1.0.1 comes with 9.04 right? | 01:09 |
| Dr_Willis | m1dlg: so you 'copied' then lost the originals? thats not a good sign | 01:09 |
| DeSian | stew, thnx again | 01:09 |

| aaroninfidel | rayok, it might, I could try an install on that version. but the lowest I've seen a successful install is 1.1.13 | 01:10 |
| m1dlg | Dr_Willis, was cut and paste job - I needed to move stuff PDQ as I am going on holiday in a day and I needed to work on something that needed some space. | 01:10 |

| Dr_Willis | dahlia: file name? or file data? | 01:11 |
| dahlia | data | 01:11 |
| rayok | hrm.. could have sworn someone installed it with 1.0.1.. i dunno though.. im a wilbur fan myself :) | 01:11 |
| stew | Harryy: sshd isn't the thing that makes auth.log is, your syslog daemon is. if you remove the auth.log file, you'll have to restart your syslog daemon (or send it a SIGHUP) to make it reopen the logfiles | 01:11 |
| myself | im a fan of u | 01:11 |
| rayok | aww | 01:12 |
| dhalsimm | hello everybody, I want to make a link of a file to /usr/bin, I tried this "sudo ln -s ~/redcar/bin/redcar /usr/bin/redcar" ... this is working but when I try to run it, it still looks for files in /usr/bin instead of redcar's own directory. So it gives a error like not found file. I would like this to work. thanks | 01:12 |
| Harryy | stew: I tried that too; did not remake the file ;___; | 01:12 |
| rayok | i should start a blog :P | 01:12 |
| stew | Harryy: what process does 'fuser /var/log/auth.log.1' report as having it open? | 01:12 |
| jefinc | dhalsimm: you can setup a link to it using -ln I believe | 01:12 |
| Harryy | stew: I already deleted those log files.. :| they do not exist anymore | 01:13 |
| jefinc | dhalsimm: oops I obviously didn't read clear enough | 01:13 |
| Drained | ok i'll try one last time... does anyone else have a problem downloading from ubuntu's backend? | 01:13 |
| IsmAvatar | bummer, looks like my partition table's lost | 01:13 |
| Drained | ismAvatar: i feel you, i just reformated my ENTIRE drive, and reinstalled windows and ubuntu. | 01:14 |
| rayok | Drained: try exlax :P | 01:14 |
| mankash | what is the latest version of kernel version ubuntu is using? | 01:14 |
| Harryy | stew: when I reload-or-restart the syslogd, I get "chown: cannot access `/var/log/auth.log': No such file or directory" | 01:14 |
| Drained | no Rayok, it was a serious question.. | 01:14 |
| rayok | sorry | 01:14 |
| Drained | -14 mankash. | 01:14 |
| dhalsimm | jefinc: np :) | 01:14 |
| ox | hey! if i want to re-compile kernel i must copy .config into /boot ? thanks | 01:14 |
| spO | gnome desktop environment relies on ~/.gconf files and ~/Desktop directory, right? anything else that is needed? | 01:14 |
| Dr_Willis | ox: .config does not go to /boot/ | 01:14 |
| IsmAvatar | Drained: fortunately, I keep all my data on a separate disk and backed up, so all I lost was Windows and Linux, but still, Windows is a pain to reinstall | 01:14 |
| Drained | Yeah, idk i can't update my graphics drivers it tells me to "try to restart ubuntu's back end" | 01:14 |
| Harryy | Omg. chmodding it worked | 01:14 |
| Harryy | thanks | 01:14 |
| ironfoot_495 | HI all I can't seem toget on #php is there another option? | 01:15 |

| davi_ | my jaunty is halting on a black screen when switching users... anyone seen something like that before? | 01:16 |
| nuada1234 | or running it with sudo? | 01:16 |
| spO | if i add a new user, what default configuration files get added to that user'? | 01:16 |
| Drained | i had sudo su, open in my terminal.. | 01:16 |
| donnybrasco | I have a question about synaptic: when should one select 'mark for removal' vs 'mark for complete removal'? | 01:17 |
| Drained | even after closing that, it failed :( | 01:17 |
| ironfoot_495 | ok I'll try it thanks? Bucky | 01:17 |
| Drained | Gah, i can't install anything from package manager :( | 01:17 |
| ceil420 | donnybrasco, i think 'complete removal' also removes configuration files and files that it depends on but nothing else does | 01:18 |
| nuada1234 | donnybrasco, mark for complete removal also removes configuration files afaik.. it's the same as doing 'apt-get --purge remove <pkg>' in a terminal.. the normal remove omits the --purge option | 01:18 |
| dare | fuser -v /var/cache/apt/archives/lock | 01:18 |
| mdg | styol: having any luck? | 01:18 |
| zip | and more.... | 01:18 |
| dare | Drained, ^ | 01:19 |
| bucky | Drained: that error means you've got another instance of synaptic open somewhere | 01:19 |
| Drained | yes i saw : root 3661 F.... jockey-backend | 01:19 |
| dare | then kill -9 the PID | 01:19 |
| Dr_Willis | donnybrasco: also remember that neither of those will remove the USERS config files... | 01:19 |
| zip | can we say botnet?????? | 01:19 |
| dare | kill -9 3661 | 01:19 |
| styol | mdg just started the actual install process, got the same warning i took a picture of | 01:19 |
| Drained | buckey: no it doesn't, it has to do with the way it's downloading them. | 01:19 |
| ironfoot_495 | bucky it didn't work it went to a overflow of some kind??? | 01:19 |
| === blacky is now known as black_ | ||
| donnybrasco | so why would you want to keep the config file if you're removing a program? | 01:19 |
| nuada1234 | perhaps you are just reinstalling it and want to keep all your settings | 01:19 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: guess what? | 01:19 |
| zip | so he can reconfigure it if the package is missing it ;) | 01:19 |
| styol | mdg same warning as in http://img444.imageshack.us/img444/9215/quickshottrfdh.png | 01:20 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: hi! | 01:20 |

| ceil420 | how can i get rid of these partition icons on my desktop (while keeping the partition mounted)? | 01:20 |
| === Drained is now known as raulh | ||
| Dr_Willis | donnybrasco: think long and hard about that.. when you got 100+ users who may or may not have their own perosnal version installed.. and you want the admin tools to go throguh their home dirs and remove files.. Not a good idea | 01:20 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: Okay, I'll guess what?? | 01:20 |
| Dr_Willis | donnybrasco: what if you reinstalled the app 3 min later.. You just erased everyones customized settings. :) | 01:20 |
| bucky | ironfoot_495: worked for me.. 490 users oh.. is your nick registered? | 01:20 |
| mdg | styol: you did choose use whole drive right? | 01:20 |
| deexannihilate | drained: kind of. I reinstalled remix using the flashcard | 01:21 |
| zip | ceil420, no idea...but if you got some green like you name implies..I might figure it out... | 01:21 |
| spO | if i add a new user, where does that new user get its default configuration files from? | 01:21 |
| Dr_Willis | donnybrasco: system configs are handled by the admin.. user configs.. are left to the user. | 01:21 |
| styol | mdg yeah for sure its less then 4 gigs tho apparently | 01:21 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: the wireless kind of works! | 01:21 |

| deexannihilate | mdg: it worked at starbucks this morning with the usual slowness, but it isn't working in my house. so, I presume the router above my head is a problem | 01:22 |

| andresj | styol, it keeps asking me, even though I connect to the same server | 01:22 |
| styol | mdg everything in one partition, this is just a test comp for an in-store application we're developing | 01:22 |
| andresj | it used to not ask me for anything | 01:22 |
| styol | andresj: that is not normal i dont believe, or for some reason its not saving the keys in ssh_hosts or whatever file it was | 01:23 |
| DeSian | stew, founde it "tasksel install lamp-server" that es what i nedd :) | 01:23 |
| andresj | and I'm not sure what I changed so now it asks me every time | 01:23 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: hmm..... thinking | 01:23 |
| mdg | anyone know if ubuntu will let you check db strength of signal? | 01:23 |
| spO | can i make it so a user exists, but that user cannot login via telnet, ssh, nor remote desktop or freenx ? | 01:23 |
| styol | mdg i did like the /home partition idea but its not applicable hehe | 01:23 |

| styol | yeah | 01:24 |
| bucky | andresj: did you hose up your permissions/ownership in ~/.ssh | 01:24 |
| spO | i want to makea user so i people can access drives remotely via samba, but that no one can login via ssh,telnet nor desktop | 01:24 |

| styol | mdg my pleasure | 01:43 |
| raulh | Guess nobody's ever encountered it installing nividia 180 prop drivers.. | 01:44 |
| deexannihilate | mdg; the thing about that page that confused me: I am almost certain there were two drivers under Family Linux last week when we looked at it | 01:44 |
| leet4christ | Hey, I've heard there's a way to route DirectX through OpenGL. Truth? | 01:44 |

| ox | hey is mkboot --device /fd0 (create boot into floopy)? | 01:45 |
| raulh | and it stays hang-time for like 15 minutes | 01:45 |
| raulh | telling me sorry the jockey backend crashed. plesae file a bug at: ubuntu-bug jockey-common "trying to recover by restarting backend" | 01:45 |
| styol | Brando753: yeah thats not something you can control, however you are trying to retrieve that file is forbidden by the server | 01:45 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: so we are the ethernet driver right? | 01:45 |
| styol | Brando753: try an alternate method of downloading it like directly from a web browser | 01:45 |
| raulh | then it locks my Cache folder so i cannot use package manager. | 01:45 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: yes. | 01:45 |
| Brando753 | that was a .deb file, i have also tryed synaptic and add and remove all files have the same problem | 01:46 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: Okay. Let me follow the driver link I found ... hold on... | 01:46 |
| raulh | linuxguy2009: any ideas?? | 01:46 |
| leet4christ | erk. driver for skullcandy icon headphones? | 01:47 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: you know - there were 2 drivers listed the other day | 01:47 |
| Brando753 | so what do i do, i cant update, i cant install, i cant use .deb files or use synaptic??? | 01:47 |
| leet4christ | can't adjust the volume a bit.. and i can't find on synaptic | 01:47 |
| linuxguy2009 | raulh: Ok so are you getting this error while downloading from nvidia.com or during the actual driver install? | 01:47 |

| linuxguy2009 | raulh: Oh well just go around it and go to nvidia.com they have much newer driver there anyhow. | 01:48 |
| mankash | it is not working properly | 01:48 |
| raulh | Yeah i found a direct method | 01:48 |

| myself | UNBAN DINOJERK | 01:48 |
| leet4christ | mankash: right click it, uncheck "enable networking", and then recheck it | 01:48 |
| mdg | bucky: good idea | 01:49 |
| raulh | but i have to restart my computer because that Hardware driver crash locked down my /cache/apt/archives/lock directory. | 01:49 |
| raulh | I'll let you know how it goes brb. | 01:49 |
| mdg | bucky: does it use that same name? | 01:49 |
| Brando753 | anyone, any ideas | 01:49 |
| bucky | mdg: sudo apt-get install libnss3-dev | 01:49 |
| styol | Brando753: 403 forbidden is a web server error that is likely not something thats an issue on your end, and likely not something you can control... perhaps that repo is having temporary issues | 01:49 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: apt-get AR8AFamily-linux-v1.0.0.10.tar.gz? | 01:49 |
| linuxguy2009 | raulh: What do you mean it locks down your package archive folder? | 01:49 |

| Dr_Willis | Brando753: in /etc/apt looks to me like you got a server in there thats no longer working | 01:55 |
| fission62 | i want to delete a partition and add space to my current wubi install | 01:55 |
| Dr_Willis | fission62: not sure thats doable with Wubi. | 01:56 |
| linuxguy2009 | raulh: Yeah new poeple might not know it but experienced user know that apt-get is pretty handy. | 01:56 |
| raulh | that thing was driving me insane >_> | 01:56 |
| Dr_Willis | fission62: you could make a ext3/2 partition perhaps and access it via wubi. as a data drive.. but not sure if that doealbe either.. | 01:56 |

| raulh | Felix_: hotmail wont let you do it. | 02:00 |
| raulh | Felix_ they made it so only @msn (paying) customers can do it. | 02:00 |
| sfmadmax | hotmail should let you use pop/imap | 02:00 |
| hbx | yea hotmail on ubuntu sux | 02:00 |
| raulh | sfmadmax: microsoft removed that function because it detoured from the add's. | 02:00 |
| felix_ | raulh, then how i could, in the past, set the imap and pop in outlook express? | 02:00 |
| linuxguy2009 | felix_: If a mail service supports mail clients they require a help page for settings otherwise they dont support it. I know Gmail does for sure. | 02:00 |
| raulh | Deex, i think that would be a good idea. | 02:00 |
| felix_ | sfmadmax, is right | 02:01 |
| Brando753 | guys what should i do???? | 02:01 |
| raulh | felix_: "PAST" | 02:01 |

| MK13 | mdg, it is just three partitions... the first is FreeBSD which makes about 5 different slices which show up as partitions themselves in ubuntu | 02:16 |
| MK13 | bucky, nope none of them are in fstab | 02:16 |
| gogeta | irc confusing lol thats calling windows hard | 02:17 |
| raulh | never mind. | 02:17 |
| raulh | i can sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-185.18.31-pkg1.run | 02:17 |
| Hilikus | hey guys | 02:17 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok. this is where we ended up last time. it says gzip: stdim: decompression ok, trailing garbage ignored. tar: child returned status 2 tar: error exit delayed from previous errors | 02:17 |
| raulh | hmm, how do i Close "X"? | 02:17 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: the reference I am looking at says to ignore that message | 02:17 |
| bucky | MK13: what's the driver for bsd's filesystem.. does it show up in lsmod ? | 02:17 |
| leet4christ | Got a couple of n00b questions, but I'll do my part and answer what I can too. | 02:18 |
| arand | raulh: as in the graphical environment? | 02:18 |
| Hilikus | when i connect to my desktop using vnc i get the first screen fine but after that whatever i do doesn't show in the client. the client doesnt get refreshed. i see everything fine in the server, but in the client its just frozen | 02:18 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: so I press ok? It is the only option | 02:18 |
| Hilikus | any idea how to fix it? | 02:18 |
| raulh | Yeah, i need to close it in order to install my nvidia drivers arand. | 02:18 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: yes | 02:18 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok | 02:18 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: so now I guess we plug in ethernet and restart networking to see if it works: | 02:18 |
| leet4christ | Okay-- first. I'm using an old Latitude D610-- how do I disable the little mouse stub in the middle of the keyboard? I think the friction of my typing on the keys is causing it to go haywire. | 02:19 |
| idunno | whats the difference between bsd and ubuntu? | 02:19 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: once you plug in ethernet type: /etc/init.d/networking restart | 02:19 |
| MK13 | bucky, i don't know what the drivers for the partitions are, but they even show up as unknown in gparted | 02:19 |
| bucky | bsd is linux | 02:19 |
| thellion | idunno, bsd isnt even linux | 02:19 |
| ctmjr | raulh: ctrl alt f2 then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 02:19 |
| bucky | bsd is linux's daddy | 02:19 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: it is still at the archive manager | 02:19 |
| sebsebseb | idunno: the kernel for a start, BSD uses BSD, and Ubuntu uses Linux | 02:19 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: do I close it? | 02:19 |
| idunno | isnt ubuntu linux? | 02:19 |
| Flannel | idunno, bucky: Please take this conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic | 02:19 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: oh, you unzipped through gui? | 02:20 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: no, I unzipped it through the terminal like you said and it opened it | 02:20 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: oh.. I guess just close it | 02:20 |
| idunno | Flannel: im pretty sure we are talking about ubuntu. not sure what you mean | 02:20 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok. I went back to the terminal. and pressed enter again. it listed the files. | 02:21 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: cool! | 02:21 |
| arand | raulh: hum, I think you can do that by first jumping out to terminal (ctrl+alt+F2, {ctrl+alt+F7, to get back}) and then use "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" | 02:21 |
| Flannel | idunno: This channel is for Ubuntu technical support only, for discussions about Ubuntu policy, background, history, etc, #ubuntu-offtopic is the place to be. | 02:21 |
| MK13 | bucky, and now after opening gparted all the slices are all showing up as just 1 partition (which they are) | 02:21 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: plug in your ethernet cable and at the command line type: /etc/init.d/networking restart | 02:22 |
| bucky | idunno: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=what's the difference between linux and bsd | 02:22 |
| leet4christ | i can't adjust the volume of my headphones. help! | 02:22 |
| TigerCR1200 | Ok I seem to be lost, what do I need to do to get a NAS to show up? | 02:22 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: I don't have a splitter today! | 02:22 |
| idunno | bucky: ty | 02:22 |
| === iosif is now known as anachoret | ||
| deexannihilate | mdg: so, i'll have to sign off and do it. what else am i supposed to do | 02:22 |
| sfmadmax | Tiger4CR1200: what kind of NAS? | 02:23 |
| thiebaude | bucky, i liked that | 02:23 |
| bucky | haha | 02:23 |
| TigerCR1200 | Hammer Myshare N1200 | 02:23 |
| aaroninfidel | anyone know where the wine menu list is? | 02:23 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: okay... I wait until you come back | 02:23 |
| TigerCR1200 | that was to sfmadmax | 02:23 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok | 02:23 |
| mdg | styol: how did it go? | 02:23 |
| sfmadmax | TigerCR1200: Hmm im not familiar with it.. On the NAS did you create shares for the hard disks ??? if so were they NFS shares or SMB/CIFS shares?? or are you not sure? | 02:24 |
| TigerCR1200 | sfmadmax, I am not sure, it is not telling me let me see if I can get there on the config. | 02:24 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: it says ifdown failed to open statefile /var/run/network/ifstate: permission denied and ifup: failed to open statefile /var/run/network/ifstate: permission denied | 02:26 |
| sfmadmax | TigerCR1200: see if you can find the config interface for the NAS.. you will want to create NFS shares "if possible" for best performance.. rather than Samba shares | 02:26 |
| TigerCR1200 | sfmadmax, for shares I have one default named "media_library" it shows to support CIFS, FTP, NFS and HTTP | 02:26 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: oh, sorry I think we needed sudo? sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart? | 02:26 |
| edgardoweb | hi | 02:27 |
| edgardoweb | .seen edoceo | 02:27 |
| sfmadmax | TigerCR1200: ok, is it marked as already shared? if So, is NFS already configured for it ? Is there a configure portion for the NFS section? | 02:27 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: or just click on the network icon | 02:27 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: I'm afraid to click on it! | 02:27 |
| TigerCR1200 | sfmadmax, let me see | 02:27 |
| aaroninfidel | anyone know if wine uses /etc/hosts or its own win32 host file? | 02:27 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: earlier, i plugged in the cable and the wireless shut off and i couldn't get it back on. the "enable wireless" disappeared! | 02:28 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: i'll try it with sudo first. brb | 02:28 |
| Dr_Willis | aaroninfidel: i see no hosts file in my .wine sub directroy at all. | 02:29 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok. it says it reconfiguring and says ok on the right | 02:30 |
| aaroninfidel | Dr_Willis: so you think it uses /etc/hosts? | 02:30 |
| Dr_Willis | aaroninfidel: add an entry to /etc/hosts and test it out. | 02:30 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: cool! so ethernet is working? | 02:31 |
| Dr_Willis | aaroninfidel: i would guess that it does. | 02:31 |
| slowslowss | hi | 02:31 |
| slowslowss | has anyone had an issue with internet speeds dropping to next to nothing after the 2.6.28-14 kernel patch? | 02:32 |
| slowslowss | I went from being able to download at 500kbps to 20kbps in the last 5 days | 02:32 |
| slowslowss | and naturally everything is just fine in windows :| | 02:32 |
| Dr_Willis | slowslowss: not had any issues here. | 02:33 |
| sfmadmax | showslowss: same here.. no issues.. | 02:33 |
| Dr_Willis | slowslowss: this is wired or wireless networking? what network cards.. try booting to the older kernel see if it gets faster? | 02:33 |
| flyingtabmow | anyone have any experience installing ubuntu on a macbook pro? | 02:34 |
| mdg | slowslowss: maybe its your ISP | 02:34 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: it should just work? | 02:34 |
| mdg | flyingtabmow: is that a PPC? | 02:34 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: no | 02:34 |
| flyingtabmow | mdg: no, intel | 02:34 |
| Dr_Willis | !mac | 02:34 |
| ubottu | To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE | 02:34 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: still no ethernet? hmmm | 02:34 |
| flyingtabmow | mdg: issue is my cd drive is busted, so i can't install via livecd | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | Hmm.. theres proberly a forum thread on using Ubuntu and macs but not sure if thers a factoid on it. | 02:35 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: would i need to restart? | 02:35 |
| Dr_Willis | flyingtabmow: cant boot from usb flash ? | 02:35 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: perhaps a full shut down and reboot, but first... | 02:35 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: did you let ubuntu update after in the reinstall? | 02:35 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: update after reinstall | 02:35 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: it never prompted me too. I can't connect through wireless now. it is there, but it won't connect. | 02:36 |
| leet4christ | need serious help. my keyboard mouse is going crazy on my laptop, and I can't turn it off | 02:36 |
| flyingtabmow | Dr_Willis: well i'd like to... i partitioned a usb ext hd, then dd'd the ubuntu iso onto one of the partitions, but i have no experience with refit and i can't get it to recognize the partition as bootable | 02:36 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: can we attempt to update the wireless? | 02:36 |
| thiebaude | flyingtabmow, you ever thought of Unetbootin | 02:36 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: lets just unplug ethernet and shutdown and reboot and see how wireless is | 02:36 |
| flyingtabmow | thiebaude: no... ? | 02:36 |
| Dr_Willis | flyingtabmow: i use the unetbootin to make a bootable flash drive (a 1 gb one can work) and boot from it to install my systems. You dont just 'dd' an iso to a disk and expect it to be bootable (that ive ever heard of) | 02:36 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok. scared! :) | 02:37 |
| thiebaude | !unetbootin | 02:37 |
| ubottu | 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 | 02:37 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: it would be a lot scarier without your desktop working | 02:37 |
| === Test is now known as Guest22453 | ||
| Dr_Willis | No idea if theres unetbootin for os-x | 02:37 |
| mdg | styol: ? you with us? | 02:37 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: true! did I tell you I restarted with the ethernet cable in this morning and the wireless disppeared? | 02:38 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: wait 30 seconds? | 02:38 |
| flyingtabmow | Dr_Willis: right, that's the issue i think | 02:38 |
| flyingtabmow | Dr_Willis: i'd read through that page | 02:38 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: thats a good rule of thumb | 02:38 |
| wokkawokka | hey everybody, i recently install 9.03 and after importing my music files (from a ntfs partition) the majority of them is showing their time's being unknown.. has this happened to anybody? | 02:38 |
| flyingtabmow | that ubottu linked | 02:38 |
| deexannihilate1 | msg: may I ask why? | 02:38 |
| OttifantSir | Any idea on how to activate the web-interface of CUPS? All I get when I enter the correct adress to the server, all I get is "Error: Couldn't connect to host" Do I need to restart cups? If so, how to do that? | 02:38 |
| chuckmoney | wokkawokka: nope, but FYI it's 9.04 | 02:39 |
| wokkawokka | chuckmoney: ty | 02:39 |
| chuckmoney | wokkawokka: normally I would say the issue is file permissions, but you can see title and artist, right? | 02:39 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: that's what I learned from a computer geek friend - time for stuff to "discharge" | 02:39 |
| kent | whats up | 02:39 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: i think the default cups config may only allow admin, from a local connection 127.0.0.1. or perhaps a local lan. | 02:39 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok. it has restarted. shall I attempt to connect to wireless? | 02:40 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: check cups.org for details on configuring the cups server. | 02:40 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: it isn't there!!!!!! | 02:40 |
| wokkawokka | chuckmoney: yep, could see everything aside for the time.. and that's only for the majority of the mp3's... all of these have worked fine in the past | 02:40 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: yes lets see what you get | 02:40 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: click on the networking icon | 02:40 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: the same thing happened earlier | 02:40 |
| flyingtabmow | gonna try isotostick.sh, see if that does anything | 02:40 |
| kent | what ubuntu are you guys running off from? i am on Xubuntu 9.04 | 02:40 |
| chuckmoney | wokkawokka: if so, that's not it, because if you can read the ID3 tags on the files, you should be able to read those times, and since you can see artist, clearly you can read the tags. | 02:40 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: when I right click, the enable wireless is missing | 02:41 |
| Drained | how do i install libSDL 1.2? | 02:41 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: I am on a local lan, and the server is headless, and I don't know how to use text-based browsers. I can't even ssh -X into the server and start system-config-printer because it can't create Gdk.cursor | 02:41 |
| wokkawokka | chuckmoney: word =/ | 02:42 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: oh... back to where we started... | 02:42 |
| epaphus | Hey guys, how can I stop iptables from command line? | 02:42 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: if wireless isn't working, is ethernet? Plug it in | 02:42 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: can we check ifup to see if it exists or if it entirely disappeared | 02:42 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok brb | 02:42 |
| Jeremy23 | Does anybody know how to disable the "safe graphics mode" dialog in GDM and get it to just ignore the errors? I have a problem with some harmless errors that is causing GDM to bomb out, when it would otherwise work (i.e. when I start X manually). | 02:42 |
| schnootop | is there a way to see what days you connected to a certain wireless connection ? | 02:42 |
| styol | mdg hey there sorry about that | 02:42 |
| wokkawokka | hopefully ressetting it will fix the problem haha | 02:43 |
| mdg | styol: did your install work? | 02:43 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: negative | 02:43 |
| styol | mdg im not really sure what to make of it... it got to about 42% and then system froze again so i was like.. lemme just walk away and give it a second... | 02:43 |
| styol | mdg came back to it right now and it was a black screen, moved the mouse and it came back to life so i guess its still doing its thing... | 02:44 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: learn to use the text based browsers then.. or install the x desktop to allow you to ssh -X in, or check out the cups configs to see if they are defaulting to allow remote admin. Or check the cups.org docs to learn to admin cups via the command line. | 02:44 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: I think when you tried to ethernet this morining without the right module for it installed, it wiped out your wireless | 02:44 |
| gogeta | schnootop: dnt think so | 02:44 |
| flyingtabmow | !#@%#$!# isotostick requires linux tools... | 02:44 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 02:44 |
| mdg | styol: that's great news! | 02:44 |
| chuckmoney | epaphus, I'm pretty sure that without iptables you have no default route for packets and you can't get any traffic through, so you don't want to shut it down. however, you may want to clear a block rule in it. check "man iptables" or "man ipchains" | 02:44 |
| Seronis | ok i have a system at home running 9.04 with remote desktop setup with a password. i can log in from here (work) and watch the cursor move around but it doesnt respond to keyboard input or mouse clicks. any suggestions ? | 02:44 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: I completely reinstalled on the way home for work. so it is completely fresh | 02:44 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: I forgot what the wireless module was we probed for | 02:44 |
| michaeld | hey whats up | 02:45 |
| gogeta | Dr_Willis: links 2 has a gui in text modes | 02:45 |
| leet4christ | my mouse is spazzin. :c | 02:45 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: you have to tick the box to enable control from the remote client | 02:45 |
| styol | mdg yup yup! indeed... i think i just need to make sure to move the mouse ever so often to prevent it from sleeping and.. just expect that it will seem like its frozen i spose hehe | 02:45 |
| chuckmoney | epaphus: you might also want to try firestarter, it's a nice GUI to iptables | 02:45 |
| epaphus | chuckmoney, thanks | 02:45 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: I'm at cups.org right now. Will see how it works out. Good news is that I finally got NFS to work, and the problem I had with apt-get yesterday seems to have resolved itself. | 02:45 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: "Allow others to control your desktop" | 02:45 |
| leet4christ | preferences > mouse > disable touchpad doesn't work. | 02:45 |
| aaroninfidel | finally got photoshop running on wine!! :D | 02:45 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: can you do a "lsmod" from a command line and see if you see anything familiar for wireless drive | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | gogeta: if ya got the frameuffer installed.. and that wont do much good if hes sshing in. :) | 02:45 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: I'm not sure, but I just finished reinstalling remix when I signed onto here | 02:45 |
| Seronis | Jeremy23: i double checked that was ticked before i came to work today. thought it might have been the problem when it failed to work yesterday | 02:45 |
| leet4christ | nice, aaron! | 02:45 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: "View only" isn't set in your client, is it? | 02:45 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: the default cups.org here seems to be only listening on 'Listen localhost:631' in the cupsd.conf file. | 02:46 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: i think you can change that to a ip range. somehow.. :) | 02:46 |
| gogeta | Dr_Willis: oh yea ssh wget and links will be what you wanna use and maybe mc | 02:46 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: what exactly am i looking for? | 02:46 |
| chuckmoney | aaroninfidel, wtg! | 02:46 |
| Seronis | Jeremy23: nope. have both tightvnc and ultravnc installed on my laptop here.. and both viewers are able to log into my winxp box at the same location with no issues | 02:46 |
| deexannihilate | ath_pci? | 02:46 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: Is that cupsd.conf located in /etc? | 02:46 |
| leet4christ | need some help with my keyboard mouse. | 02:46 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: something like AR8113 | 02:46 |
| Seronis | Jeremy23: both systems are running on different ports and ports are properly forwarded in the router at home | 02:47 |
| gogeta | Seronis: you dont need 2 clients to connect to same server | 02:47 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: in /etc/cups i think.. also.. if you have cups running on a different machine on the same lan. i THINK you can configure pc #2 from that first pc.. | 02:47 |
| kent | dude i had to rebuild this whole computer that i am on now and when i finished and i restored the hard drive it was still running on Windows ME!!!Lol so i had to wipe the hard drive and and install Xubuntu 9.04 | 02:47 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: *shrugs* not sure myself then | 02:47 |
| === lipsin__ is now known as lipsin | ||
| Seronis | gogeta: true. but i have both clients installed on this laptop. and both clients work fine when connecting to a different machine running a vnc server at the same house | 02:47 |
| sfmadmax | kent: good call ! | 02:47 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: Thanks for the assistance. It seems I need to do more of what I preach: Patience and reference. | 02:47 |
| fuzzy84 | hola late-nighters | 02:48 |
| kent | yep | 02:48 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: i don't see anything | 02:48 |
| Seronis | jeremy23: i can log in via ssh (or could yesterday, havent tried today). you happen to know what commands would uninstall and reinstall the vnc server used in 9.04 | 02:48 |
| Seronis | ? | 02:48 |
| fuzzy84 | having some issues here... I installed the *recommended* NVIDIA drivers on my 9.04 xubuntu, and after i reboot, i get this battery check that i cant get past | 02:48 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: do you know how to copy to pastebin? | 02:48 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: uninstalling and reinstalling won't do the trick | 02:48 |
| quidnunc` | Anyone know how /etc/ppp/resolv/ works? What do I name the files? | 02:48 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: what server is it? | 02:48 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: you could add the line Listen 192.0.2.1:631 | 02:49 |
| douwei | hello, apologize if I am in the wrong group | 02:49 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: the one from the GUI tool? | 02:49 |
| flyingtabmow | anyone know what to do to make an ubuntu install iso bootable when copied to a partition? | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: to make it listen on the external ip also. I think | 02:49 |
| Seronis | Jeremy23: its whatever is used in ubuntu as 'remote desktop' in the preferences menu | 02:49 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: If so, then configuration is per-user, so uninstalling and reinstalling won't even touch the configuration. | 02:49 |
| deexannihilate | i did the other day but i don't remember | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | flyingtabmow: you dont do it that way.. booting requires kernel files and a boot loader normally | 02:49 |
| douwei | but I am looking for a program or process that I can take a encrypted dvd and rip it to the VOB files to burn to a dvd-duallayer, no encoding or nothing | 02:49 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: can you copy the output from "lsmod" to http://pastebin.ubuntu.com | 02:49 |
| chuckmoney | flyingtabmow, I think if you follow the same instructions for copying an ISO to a USB flash drive it should work on a standard HDD | 02:49 |
| kent | then just un-install the Nvidia drivers and re-install it | 02:49 |
| Dr_Willis | flyingtabmow: i do think that may be a feature of the next grub release however. :P | 02:50 |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: try this: | 02:50 |
| Cocoabean | I am having keyboard mapping issues in GDM when accessing via XDMCP. The mappings are crazy, I can't type anything all the mappings are jumbled. Anyone know anything about this? | 02:50 |

| flyingtabmow | Dr_Willis: how does the livecd itself work then? you'd think if it has all the files necessary to boot when inserted then copying them into a partition would allow you to do something similar | 02:50 |
| Wicked | !apt | 02:51 |
| ubottu | APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE) | 02:51 |

| Seronis | jeremy23: would any recent kernel updates (what i assume made that message display) keep svn from working properly ? | 02:51 |
| OttifantSir | Dr_Willis: Is that a universal external interface adress? Meaning that even if I have my local net on 192.168.x.x the 192.0.2.1 adress will work? | 02:52 |
| Seronis | trying your command now though... | 02:52 |
| Dr_Willis | flyingtabmow: making a bootable cd is an interesting 'task' theres more to it then just files on the cd. | 02:52 |
| chuckmoney | flyingtabmow, I think you'll need to extract it, StuffIt Expander should have that capability, then just copy them like any other files | 02:52 |
| esde | hi i am recovering data from a Windows Vista drive, and the contents of some folders are empty but there was data in them. any ideas? | 02:52 |

| gogeta | flyingtabmow: linux and osx as well | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | OttifantSir: you might also have to 'allow' remote admin by 192.168.* also. | 02:53 |
| aaroninfidel | chuckmoney: thanks! :) | 02:53 |
| flyingtabmow | gogeta: the webpage just says windows and linux | 02:53 |
| flyingtabmow | gogeta: is there an unofficial build for osx somewhere? | 02:53 |
| JamesE | Can someone tell me how to page up in a terminal window so I can view the (very long) output of a command? | 02:53 |
| Seronis | Jeremy23: ok command sent. no feedback from it though | 02:53 |
| Dr_Willis | JamesE: the CONSOLE? or a xterm? try the pageup key? | 02:54 |
| nevyn | shift pageup | 02:54 |
| JamesE | 02:54 | |
| Jeremy23 | Seronis: yeah, you'll need to log out, enable remote desktop from the GUI again, etc. | 02:54 |
| douwei | gogetta, i installed the libdvdcss but need a program now to extract the vobs | 02:54 |

| kent | 2 days Vs. 2 weeks | 02:54 |
| nevyn | JamesE: if you pipe into less it's easier to move around | 02:54 |
| JamesE | Gah, I have forgotten so much in the last six years | 02:54 |
| flyingtabmow | Dr_Willis: so i guess there's no way to convince the computer to pretend the hd partition is a cd drive ;) | 02:55 |
| kent | you decide wich is better | 02:55 |
| nevyn | flyingtabmow: you can getthe system to mount an iso file | 02:55 |
| Dr_Willis | flyingtabmow: it dont work that way.. and macs are even weirder.... | 02:55 |
| me | evening all | 02:55 |
| Seronis | jeremy23: the 9.04 system in question is set to autorelog after 30 second delay.. rebooting from ssh will be enough to do what you think i need, right ? | 02:55 |

| ddoom_ | Jeremy23, ok thanks | 03:00 |

| mdg | deexannihilate: since we are at connections, does ethernet show anything? | 03:02 |
| fuzzy84 | kent; if you hit it to get it working again, at one point that wont work any more, and you usually gotta buy a new one.. | 03:02 |

| deexannihilate | mdg: it worked this morning at starbucks and picked up the at&t wireless but disconnected every few minutes (as the known issue). it "worked" this evening when I installed it, but couldn't pick up my home wireless | 03:15 |
| Seronis | Jeremy23: thank you =) | 03:15 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: my other question is - is it more important that wireless work or more important that ethernet works? | 03:15 |
| prinneh | question: I cannot write to my MMC SD card. I used to be able to do so, but I cant do it now. I think I need to fix my permissions, but I dont know how. | 03:16 |
| pe1 | Jeremy23: thanks man! there was a AllowOverride None option. *peace* :-P | 03:16 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: wireless! | 03:16 |
| Jeremy23 | pe1: yep, that was probably overriding the one you set | 03:16 |
| nexsja | anybody? | 03:16 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: but I need to figure out how to make it work correctly | 03:16 |
| nexsja | an i the only one that hates netbeans fonts? :< | 03:16 |
| Jeremy23 | pe1: as VirtualHosts are more specific than the general config outside of it | 03:16 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: I think it needs to get all the updates on a fresh install before we try to get ethernet working | 03:16 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: Could try looking for similar issues on launchpad, searching for that particular kernel version | 03:17 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok. I'll reinstall now | 03:17 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: but at this point we don't know if it will pick up with a fresh install right? | 03:17 |
| Jeremy23 | AvonGenesis: check the boot parameters for each kernel, and make sure they're the same | 03:17 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: it works, i just don't know what it will work here because the signal | 03:17 |
| Jeremy23 | AvonGenesis: if the disk UUID is specified the same, that suggests there is a bug in the new kernel's SATA or IDE driver | 03:17 |
| deexannihilate | i can try. | 03:17 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: I did try searching but most of the suggestions suggest that either the uuid does not exist/incorrect or that my udev didn't finished updating because I restarted early. | 03:18 |
| edbian | Jeremy23: If you use dd to make a copy of a partition both the new and old partitions will have the same UUID | 03:18 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: when you try wireless at home, try to move a little to the side of being directly under where the wireless is above you | 03:18 |
| bcurtiswx | anyone know how I can get java to work on arora web browser | 03:18 |
| AvonGenesis | Jeremy23: If that is the case, what do you suggest I do? | 03:18 |
| deexannihilate | msg: i honestly don't know where it is exactly | 03:19 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: Well, the udev message does point towards udev not updating correctly... | 03:19 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: i'll try different areas | 03:19 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: after you reinstall, don't try ethernet set at all until you update - either at home or at starbucks | 03:19 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: Any idea how I can repair/fix udev? | 03:19 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: one thing you can try after reinstall is the command: sudo iwlist scan - that will show you available connections and it does show decibel strength | 03:19 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: available wireless connections | 03:20 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok. will it install it all at once? or will there be a series of updates? it updated almost every day | 03:20 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: when I have installed ubuntu, I get like 200+ updates right away | 03:20 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: that's what you need to do is get the big group of updates before troubleshooting any other problesm | 03:21 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: Unfortunately no, (there are most probably ways, but I know as little as you in that matter), You could always set the olde kernel as default and just ignore the new one... | 03:21 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok. It is reloading. I'm going to grab a drink, and shower. we'll attempt this again if you are on then | 03:21 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: okay - will check back later :) | 03:21 |
| kent | lol i am pounding the hell out of my monitor and it still wont go back to normal | 03:23 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: Alright, that sounds good to me, any idea how I can do that? Do I just rearrange the kernels in menu.lst? | 03:23 |
| tiritchi83 | keoz: tu es la? | 03:23 |
| bcurtiswx | anyone here know how I can get java working on the arora web browser? | 03:24 |
| prinneh | Please, can someone help me change permissions for an MMC SD card? | 03:25 |
| prinneh | I would appreciate very much. | 03:25 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: you edit menu.lst and set default option to the number corresponding to the former kernel, guessing that'd be "3" | 03:25 |
| prinneh | it- | 03:25 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: you still here? | 03:26 |
| kent | dose anybody know were i can get java that works and will install on Xubuntu 9.04? | 03:26 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: yes | 03:26 |
| Scunizi | kent: search synaptic for sun and sun-java should show up | 03:26 |
| mdg | I found a couple things to add to a blacklist file that may help give you a better wireless connection | 03:27 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: Alright thanks. I still want to figure out the problem though, I'm able to boot on the other kernel and it says my udev is fine. | 03:27 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: actually, since it starts counting from 0, the olde kernel would probably be at no 2 | 03:27 |
| tkmr | prinneh: open up terminal, type gksudo nautilus. Navigate to your /media folder. Right click on the SD card and go to the permissions tab. | 03:27 |
| kent | scunizi: thanks | 03:27 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: Indeed, that is kind of confusing. | 03:27 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: If it helps, the kernel that is broken is the ubuntu netbook one. The one that is working is ubuntu generic if that helps. | 03:28 |
| Scunizi | Is there a tool to merge two pdf files together. One file has odd numbered pages and the other even. I want them to merge like you were shuffling a deck of cards without the randomness | 03:28 |
| deexannihilate | alright. it is 94% done | 03:29 |
| ziip | How do I turn my wifi laptop into like a sub access point on my existing network | 03:29 |
| mdg | AvonGenesis: - I missed your post - netbook remix is broken? | 03:29 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: let me jump in the shower super quick and i'll be back! | 03:29 |
| man68 | a | 03:29 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: okay | 03:29 |
| ziip | because the laptop can reach the signal of the wifi router | 03:29 |
| ziip | but the other computer cant | 03:30 |
| AvonGenesis | mdg: Yes, my netbook remix kernel is broken but I am able to boot into the generic kernel. | 03:30 |
| ziip | so can I use the laptop to rebroadcast the signal | 03:30 |
| mdg | AvonGenesis: what netbook you have? | 03:30 |
| ziip | or bridge the connection | 03:30 |
| uberben | scunizi: there's a command line tool that at the very least will let you concatenate pdf files (and I seem to recall could do more) but I don't really remember the details... | 03:30 |
| AvonGenesis | mdg: I have an asus eee pc 1000HE. | 03:30 |
| Scunizi | uberben: wouldn't be "pdfedit" would it? it has a command line function and gui but is overly complicated to use. | 03:31 |
| mdg | AvonGenesis: I'm helping deexannihilate with her acer aspire one D250 - wifi issues | 03:31 |
| kent | I tried looking up synaptic for sun and no downloads just news :( | 03:31 |
| Wired7 | hi guys | 03:32 |
| arand | AvonGenesis: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/devmapper/+bug/358654 << Might that help you? Issue seems similar. | 03:32 |
| Wired7 | can anyone help me? | 03:32 |
| mdg | anyone else here with an acer aspir D250 | 03:32 |
| mdg | besides deexannihilate | 03:32 |
| bcurtiswx | who knows of a lightweight browser that has good flash and java support? | 03:32 |
| tkmr | Wired7: What's the problem? We won't know if we can help until we know the problem. | 03:33 |
| bcurtiswx | firefox is too clunky | 03:33 |
| kent | dose anybody know were i can get java that will work on Xubuntu 9.04 | 03:33 |
| AvonGenesis | mdg: I was reading that post but I wasn't sure whether it would work, but that perfectly described my problem. | 03:33 |
| goku12205 | hello | 03:33 |
| Wired7 | is no one here...? | 03:33 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: I was about to read that :P | 03:33 |

| goku12205 | i am | 03:33 |
| tkmr | Wired7: You need to say what the problem is before anyone can help. | 03:33 |
| mdg | AvonGenesis: you want arand - he posted | 03:33 |
| kent | Wired7: yes pple are here | 03:33 |
| AvonGenesis | mdg: Oh, woops it went to the wrong person xD | 03:34 |
| uberben | scunizi: sorry, it has been so long since I've needed to mess with PDFs. try gs or pdftk | 03:34 |
| mdg | AvonGenesis: np - happens a lot actually | 03:34 |
| Wired7 | sorry my phone was lagging. So I'm not sure what I did, but know my ubuntu won't recognize any wireless connections. I'm on my phone typing this | 03:34 |
| AvonGenesis | arand: Yea, that helps arand, I'll give it a try and see what happens. | 03:34 |
| blackberry77 | anyone got any good linux blogs? | 03:34 |

| bcurtiswx | other than firefox, what browser is good for ubuntu that supports java and flash.. firefox is a resource hog | 03:35 |
| marko_ | Hey guys I left before I got a response and now I can't scroll up and see if I had any input. I have ubuntu 9.04 installed on a partition but for some reason the browser seems to be running slow, I added the primary and secondary dns server in resolv.conf, turned off ipv6 in about:config, dropped my mtu to 1452 and added alias net-pf-10 ipv6 off | 03:35 |
| blackberry77 | kent: applications add/remove java runtime? | 03:35 |
| marko_ | alias net-pf-10 off | 03:35 |
| marko_ | alias ipv6 off | 03:35 |
| marko_ | #alias net-pf-10 ipv6 .Things are a bit better but not much. Any input would be great, BTW this is for a wireless connection. | 03:35 |
| FloodBot2 | marko_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:35 |

| CaptainCrook | hey folks i have a BIOS that doesnt support booting from too much partition... anyone know how to create a symbolic link to another partition from the boot config file? | 03:36 |

| tuxwulf | Wired7: Is it working at least? ifconfig, iwconfig...? | 03:37 |
| bcurtiswx | Wired7: what version of Ubuntu? | 03:37 |
| blackberry77 | kent: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java | 03:37 |
| Wired7 | Its 9.04 | 03:37 |
| spO | mount.cifs can do only plaintext password in a file, while samba has to rely on a smbpasswd created file, but can use encrypted passwords.... is this correct? Now, the smbpasswd user accounts ought to be users that actually exist on the local box in order for that smbpasswd to have actual write/read privilages? or does it matter ? It doesn't really matter does it because Samba creates somewhat fake ownership and permission on NT fi | 03:37 |
| Wired7 | says no wireless extensions, yet it was working fine one hour ago | 03:38 |
| ziip | how can I rebroadcast my wifi signal | 03:38 |

| eddiegentry | hi, i have some questions about linux ubuntu | 03:46 |
| blackberry77 | ask away | 03:46 |
| mdg | Wired7: what kind of computer and wifi | 03:46 |
| eddiegentry | im trying to get a workstation install going and ran into some issues | 03:46 |
| eddiegentry | first, is it supposed to see more than one processor or not? | 03:46 |
| eddiegentry | bc i have two and it only says one | 03:46 |
| Wired7 | Its a dell inspiron, and what do you mean by what kinda wifi | 03:46 |
| mdg | Wired7: I thought you were also having a wifi problem - sorry | 03:46 |
| Wired7 | well it kinda is, its not seeing any wifi connections. So yea | 03:47 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: I have a hyperthreading P4 - where are seeing processors - what app/screen | 03:47 |
| AvonGenesis | How can I tell which drive is my root? Is it sda1 or sda5? | 03:47 |
| losher | AvonGenesis: run sudo df -l Hopefully it will be obvious which is root... | 03:48 |
| Wired7 | if I backup, can I save to my partition? Is that possible? Because I might have to reinstall | 03:48 |
| losher | AvonGenesis: oops, make that sudo df -h. The first line will show the root filesystem | 03:48 |
| mdg | Wired7: you should be able to backup your /home partition - but I'm not sure how... | 03:49 |
| AvonGenesis | losher: Alright thanks. | 03:49 |

| myk_robinson | evening, all | 03:50 |
| Wired7 | well this sucks. Allright, thanks for trying mdg | 03:50 |

| eddiegentry | machine | 03:51 |
| coleys | It's just not a win game... =p | 03:51 |
| eddiegentry | when i type machine it just says i686 | 03:51 |
| Wolvez | does anybody body knows Python ? I tryed install the MySQLdb but I receive an error when I try to import the MySQLdb | 03:51 |
| myk_robinson | Need a little assistance. I just installed LAMP on my laptop for local testing. I need to know how to define a folder in my home directory for Apache to reference. In other words, this is only being used for local testing. I would prefer to use a folder in my home directory instead of /var/www so I wont have to chown the /var/www folder everytime I make an edit. Any advice? | 03:51 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: so does mine | 03:51 |
| arleslie | How do I mount a Windows Network Share? | 03:51 |
| eddiegentry | i have two pentium pro chips | 03:51 |
| eddiegentry | i even overclocked them to 233 | 03:52 |
| styol | mdg its still goin lol last i checked it was like 52% | 03:52 |
| eddiegentry | i want to get full speed out of it | 03:52 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: look at the out put from the command: dmesg | less | 03:52 |
| Gumby | does anyone know if it is possible to use tail with dmesg. | 03:52 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: you can view it by page up/down | 03:52 |
| eddiegentry | mdg is says (END) | 03:52 |
| eddiegentry | yeah nothing is there | 03:52 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: yes, use the page up to scroll up | 03:52 |
| eddiegentry | just that (END) at the end | 03:52 |
| ctmjr | Gumby: yes dmesg | tail | 03:52 |
| eddiegentry | i just did | 03:52 |
| eddiegentry | nothing | 03:53 |
| styol | mdg the comp keeps going to sleep tho i think i need to adjust the settings real quick of the live cd install | 03:53 |
| mdg | dmesg | less - in a terminal/console | 03:53 |
| eddiegentry | oh wait--when i leave it says | 03:53 |
| eddiegentry | Unable to obtain kernel buffer: Operation not permitted | 03:53 |
| eddiegentry | usage: sudo dmesg | 03:53 |
| mdg | styol: mine went to sleep during installs - its the screensaver for me | 03:53 |
| AvonGenesis | How do you unmount from a drive once you have mounted to it in terminal? It says that unmount is not a bash command. | 03:53 |
| Gumby | ctmjr: hrm, thx. (I hope tail -f works here too) | 03:53 |
| Gumby | AvonGenesis: umount | 03:53 |
| AvonGenesis | Gumby: Thanks, I misread that :P | 03:54 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: it wants you to use root privileges | 03:54 |
| eddiegentry | is that a virus? | 03:54 |
| mdg | eddiegentry: try: sudo dmesg | less | 03:54 |
| eddiegentry | it says | 03:54 |

| eddiegentry | well i had to use sudo first | 03:56 |
| eddiegentry | this doesnt make any sense | 03:56 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok | 03:56 |
| eddiegentry | does ubuntu support dual overclocked pentium pro with 1 megabyte of L2 cache | 03:56 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: all ready? | 03:56 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: it will not pick up the signal | 03:56 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: I found a couple things to add to a blacklist before we try wifi | 03:56 |
| styol | mdg should i just leave it or is it possibly effecting the install? | 03:56 |
| mdg | styol: I would leave it go - if its 52% it will get there | 03:57 |
| mdg | styol: I think its just the screensaver kicking in | 03:57 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: we will use the command line to start an editor as we need root privileges to edit the blacklist file | 03:57 |

| curt | well since I'm here, anybody know why Youtube videos refuse to play sound? | 04:05 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: ??? | 04:06 |
| losher | AvonGenesis: generally, yes. If you downloaded it, the deb file will be cached in /var/cache/apt/archive. You can reinstall from that. Or reinstall it via synaptic... | 04:06 |
| Mefached | curt: Try logging out and back in, does that fix it? | 04:06 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: i remember in nano it was vital to put a space between. wondering if it is the same thing here | 04:06 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: you mean between blacklist and ath5k_pci - yes | 04:06 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: if you mean a blank line - no | 04:06 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: no between the last line and the one i type | 04:07 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: two more entries to go | 04:07 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok | 04:07 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: it is asking for updates. proceed or finish adding first> | 04:07 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: next one - on the line below the previous one - no blank line in between: blacklist ATL1E | 04:07 |
| AvonGenesis | losher: Well, the thing is that the kernel was preinstalled and after I did an update, it no longer worked so wouldn't the deb file thats cached be the updated one? Basically I want it to roll back but I have no access to it. | 04:07 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok | 04:08 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: last one: blacklist ath5k | 04:08 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok. entered | 04:08 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: okay, now save the file and you will need to shut down and then reboot | 04:08 |
| curt | Mefached: No, this has been an ongoing problem, I do have Adobe Flash installed, which is why it's so confusing, especially since sound works everywhere else | 04:09 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: press esc at boot and slect the old kernel | 04:09 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: just close the terminal? | 04:09 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: ubuntu does not uninstall them | 04:09 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: and should i install the updates first? | 04:09 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: yes close terminal and then shut down the computer and reboot | 04:09 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: just in case you have issues | 04:09 |
| Mefached | curt, that's quite odd. | 04:09 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: no updates yet | 04:10 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: ok brb | 04:10 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: okay | 04:10 |
| integration_ | hey guys i got my fresh install of ubuntu and it's working like a charm :) | 04:10 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: Well, there is no old kernel on that list, there are two kernels named differently though, one that is meant for netbook and one that says generic. | 04:10 |
| mdg | integration_: congratulations! | 04:10 |
| integration_ | thanks | 04:10 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: so what the issue | 04:10 |
| curt | yes Mefached that was my opinion as wel | 04:10 |
| curt | *well | 04:10 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: I want to be able to boot into the netbook kernel but it won't let me so I have to boot into generic. | 04:11 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: did it brake | 04:11 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: well, I think it did, it stopped letting me boot into it after i restarted for an update. | 04:11 |
| donnybrasco | I'm back :) does anyone know why when I have two displays and I try to go into fullscreen it goes fullscreen on the primary display instead of the secondary screen? | 04:12 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: slect the netbook kernel in synaptic and slect reinstall | 04:12 |
| losher | AvonGenesis: if "preinstalled" means it came off the install CD, you should be able to reinstall the old kernel from there. But gogeta is right. Usually when you upgrade a kernel, the old version is left on disk in case you need to roll it back... | 04:12 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: maybe the upgrade whent badly | 04:12 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: restarted | 04:13 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: Yea, thats what I'm thinking went wrong. So I've been looking for an answer to either fix it or reinstall it. | 04:13 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: no wireless available | 04:13 |
| prappl93 | I am in need of an MPEG-4 AAC Decoder for Media Player. Anyone know where I can get one? | 04:13 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: just mark for reinstall in synaptic | 04:13 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: what | 04:13 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: what does your networking icon show? | 04:13 |
| th0r | media player? | 04:14 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: nothing | 04:14 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: two computers or stairsteps | 04:14 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: use quick search and type netbook you should find it | 04:14 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: steps with x | 04:14 |
| prappl93 | Sorry, old Windows convert.... | 04:14 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: no wireless option | 04:14 |

| metropolis | hi, i'm currently following these instructions to get my nvidia graphics driver to work under ubuntu 9.04: http://blog.freshnewpage.com/2008/04/26/nvidia-geforce4-420-go-on-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron/ I have just got to the very end of the instructions, where I'm editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file using nano inside a terminal. I've added the "Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/etc/X11/edid.bin"" in the right place and have gone to save the file, and it's tellin | 04:14 |
| metropolis | g me Permission is denied. Any ideas?? | 04:14 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: question | 04:14 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: okay, sorry - we need to undo the blacklisting | 04:15 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: sure | 04:15 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: Yup, thanks, this is the answer that I have been looking for, hopefully this will fix my problem. I'll try it out and hope it works. | 04:15 |
| CaptainCrook | anyways to get faster Ubuntu? | 04:15 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: under drivers, i've noticed it has madwifi disabled. or i noticed before. should this be enabled/ | 04:15 |
| CaptainCrook | it got slower in the last week... | 04:15 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: oh. Where are you seeing that listed? | 04:15 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: the one with the green heck mark is the installed one | 04:16 |
| gogeta | check | 04:16 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: it is specifically under hardware drivers.. i haven't opened it since reinstall, but it has shown the same each time | 04:16 |
| CaptainCrook | by slower i mean from 6M/s copy file... to 450k/s copy... | 04:16 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: Yup, I got it, restarting now to see if it works. | 04:16 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: first lets undo what we added to blacklist and see what we get before we go to hardware drivers | 04:16 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: did you apply it lol | 04:16 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok | 04:17 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: Yup, it reinstalled and asked for a restart :D | 04:17 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: at the command line again: sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf | 04:17 |
| bastidrazor | metropolis, you need to run the vim command with sudo | 04:17 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok | 04:17 |
| AvonGenesis | gogeta: Woot! It works, thanks a lot! +1 free internet for you! | 04:17 |
| blognewb | If there'd be any potential security issues with 9.04, will there be manual updates available despite having no LTS? | 04:17 |
| gogeta | AvonGenesis: lol | 04:18 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: now delete the last three lines we typed: blacklist ath5k_pci blacklist ATL1E blacklist ath5k | 04:18 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: let me know when you have deleted them | 04:18 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok | 04:19 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: now close the terminal and you need to completely shut down and reboot again - sorry | 04:19 |
| losher | blognewb: there will be updates & fixes, especially for security issues, until it reaches end of life. Not sure what you mean by 'manual' updates | 04:20 |
| gogeta | mdg: wifi is unstable in the defult ubuntu kernel | 04:20 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: no apologies needed! save i assume | 04:20 |
| metropolis | bastidrazor: thanks! completely overlooked that!! now restarting - fingers crossed i have a graphical login at the right resolution! | 04:20 |
| blognewb | losher: oh i really didn't know what LTS implied sorry | 04:20 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: yes save please | 04:20 |
| gogeta | mdg: the 29 serise fixes wifi | 04:20 |
| bastidrazor | metropolis, good luck | 04:20 |
| blognewb | so "end of life" != LTS i guess? | 04:20 |
| mdg | gogeta: we are finding that out - deexannihilate is using UNR 9.04 on an acer aspir one D250 | 04:21 |
| donnybrasco | when I have two displays enabled and try to go fullscreen on the secondary display, the video goes fullscreen on the primary display instead; is there any way to fix this? | 04:21 |
| mdg | 29 series? | 04:21 |
| losher | blognewb: LTS just means it will be supported for longer so you don't have to upgrade it as often, that's all. LTS = long term support. | 04:21 |
| gogeta | mdg: yea the arrray org netbook kernel 2.6.29 the defult geenrc .28 serise has wifi issues | 04:22 |
| metropolis | damnit, it didn't work | 04:22 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: ok it is trying to connect to wireless | 04:23 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: excellent | 04:23 |
| deexannihilate | mdg: established | 04:23 |
| gogeta | mdg: mine would randomly disconnect untill i upgraded | 04:23 |
| mdg | deexannihilate: are you postioned where you got a 28? | 04:23 |
| prappl93 | Anyone know where I can get a good MPEG-4 AAC decoder for Music Player? | 04:23 |
| mdg | gogeta: that's the problem deexannihilate is having | 04:24 |

| blackberry77 | n2diy: got libgpod4 installed | 04:37 |

I've been following these instructions to get my Nvidia graphics card to work - http://blog.freshnewpage.com/2008/04/26/nvidia-geforce4-420-go-on-ubuntu-804-hardy-heron/ - but after finishing all the steps and restarting, the resolution inside the Nvidia X Server Settings program still won't budge from 800x600. Any ideas? | 04:55 |
| OttifantSir | Anyone have a D-Link DIR-655 and have a printer connected to the USB-port? Or two printers through a hub? The manual says how to do this using Windows, but (of course) not using Linux. So if anyone has any experience? | 04:55 |

| SyphonSilent | i dont know how to fix it | 04:59 |
| SyphonSilent | can you help? | 04:59 |
| linux_noobie1 | SyphonSilent: like i said, go into the sound section and set everything to Autodetect | 04:59 |
| linux_noobie1 | SyphonSilent: then try to do a test from there | 04:59 |
| mattwj20021 | well not permantly but long enough so it doesn't keep on reconnecting on me | 04:59 |
| gogeta | OttifantSir: been ages for me and a printer so i cant relly say where everything is located | 04:59 |
| linux_noobie1 | SyphonSilent: that usually does the trick for me | 04:59 |
| linux_noobie1 | SyphonSilent: when that happens | 05:00 |
| mattwj20021 | I have a nic and two wireless cardss | 05:00 |

| ryjame | mattwj20021: Try disabling in the Network Connections from System->Preferences->network connections. | 05:03 |

| johnseamus | hi ,anybody knows how to configure ubuntu as a layer 2 switch? | 05:15 |
| ryjame | sp0 : ACL - Access Control Lists. There are commands that allow you to set directory level defaults so when a file is created within the directory, you can set ownership as well as permissions. | 05:15 |

| coldReactive_ | You can dump the BIOS of a fat PS2 (which I have) without modding its hardware). All you need is a codebreaker disk, a FAT USB Drive, and a PSOne disc you don't use, as well as a save editor and the save exploit | 05:25 |
| dare | silver_swords, good news :-) | 05:25 |

| charlie_1 | from a command right? | 05:33 |
| losher | Silver_Swords: do you know how come it's faster? Its a gentoo derivative right? | 05:33 |

| charlie_1 | yeah | 05:34 |
| charlie_1 | whats the line of text | 05:34 |

| losher | Silver_Swords: I'm surprised nevertheless. I don't think I've heard any of the distros having a significant speed advantage over any other... | 05:36 |
| StrangeCharm | bucky, charlie_1: but i might only want 3 muffins, or 432, but it'll always be preceeded by 'i would like to eat ' and followed by ' muffins' | 05:37 |
| HighLordObsi | anybody know why my login screen is all crumpled up in the top of the screen | 05:37 |

| losher | Silver_Swords: I'm not surprised to hear about the package manager. apt is pretty hard to beat... | 05:38 |

| lakcaj | treetop, you're going to have to be more specific, not that I can help you, but you aren't stating what the problem is | 05:44 |

| Silver_Swords | n2diy, you need to log into your router page and see from there. | 05:50 |

| danbhfive | jigpe: I think you could delete the last partition, and select option 3 | 05:51 |
| theatro | jigpe, with option 4 choose the second partition, you need to delete the d: volume and then use an option that says auto alocate this space for the ubuntu partitions | 05:51 |
| zroysch | why does this usb hard drisk not mount during boot. I have to sudo mount -a to make it boot | 05:51 |

| jigpe | danbhfive : i deleted D: and back. then i select option 3: but it says "This probably happend because the selected disk or free space is too small to be automatically partitioned. (note: the partitions are 160gb/3 so its 50+gb | 05:56 |

| bucky | rian: common for trash? | 06:28 |
| fiber | bucky: i think your messages are meant for someone else | 06:28 |
| StrangeCharm | lakotajames, then seems to be ok | 06:28 |
| spO | surf, that is fine, but when you run ubuntu and display it on an hdtv , it probabyl will show a blackboarder aroudn the desktop like it does mine... (ie, the desktop does not fill the whole screen/tv) | 06:28 |
| fiber | anyways, i'm off | 06:28 |
| bucky | fiber: oh.. simulation sorry | 06:28 |
| rian | yup. i need to make a launcher to my awn | 06:28 |

| lakotajames | StrangeCharm: is there like a scan disk or something I could run? Because my ds insists that it's corrupted. | 06:28 |
| losher | zroysch: you could try reissuing the mount command from /etc/rc.local I suppose. If that doesn't work, you could try launching a script from /etc/rc.local that runs in the background and retries the mount after sleeping for a bit. That's assuming that I'm right about the delay being the cause of the failure in the first place... | 06:29 |
| bucky | rian: are you talking about the avant window navigator | 06:29 |
| surf}^ | sp0 I get the same thing when hooking up my computer to my hdtv on windows | 06:29 |
| rian | yeah. i mean it. | 06:29 |
| bucky | rian: did you install it with aptitude, synaptic or apt-get ? | 06:30 |
| surf}^ | sp0 I thought it was the video card not matching the hdtv definition | 06:30 |
| spO | surf, in windows, your graphics card provider proabbly has a program that allwos you to scale it to the hdtv screen easily | 06:30 |
| rian | bucky: apt-get | 06:30 |
| bucky | rian: good | 06:30 |
| zroysch | losher: how do i 'resissue the command' | 06:30 |
| rian | so? | 06:30 |

| windowsxp | Oh, I have an intel i7, 8gb ram, trust me: it's not the system | 06:36 |

| mcsx3 | yes | 06:36 |
| eadz | windowsxp: so why not upgrade to vista? | 06:36 |
| P1umb3r | try arch then. no bloat | 06:36 |
| sol93 | windowsxp: because of the architecture of the user interface, everything is additionally pulled through an TCP socket (youre using a "remote desktop" even if youre on the machine) and because Gnome isn't very fast. | 06:36 |
| mcsx3 | i'm on it right now | 06:36 |
| WIGGMPk | Anyone know how to move the notification window in Jaunty??? really need it moved.. its messing up my desktop layout | 06:36 |

| Blankman | via wifi | 06:37 |
| mcsx3 | but it keeps on saying that i need to register | 06:37 |
| sol93 | WIGGMPk: right click, (un)"lock to panel" | 06:37 |

| bucky | rian: i'm sorry.. i guess i didn't understand :( | 06:38 |
| eadz | windowsxp: no one is forcing you to use ubuntu. I find it several magnitues faster than vista, and windows 95 is faster than XP so maybe you should use windows 95 | 06:38 |

| ^^kickAss | ubottu, is it necessary to burn those files to disk, can we just get those files copy to my home box and then make apt-get use those as new packages and then do the updates? | 06:56 |
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 06:56 |

| losher | ^^kickAss: there are various ways. One easy way is that those debs are all cached in /var/cache/apt/archive. Just copy them to a dvd, take them home, and restore them to the same place on the home machine. apt-get will use them in preference to downloading them.... | 06:56 |

| DasEi | ryan__ : pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 06:57 |

| ^^kickAss | losher, so by default apt-get will first check the content of /var/...../archive dirctory to do the updated, right? then I can try it out..i dont have internet on that box ,,,thats the reason for all this | 06:58 |
| ryan__ | Dasei what do I do now? | 06:58 |

| ryan__ | Dasei this is so confusing!!! | 06:59 |
| DasEi | ryan__ : pastebinit installed ? | 07:00 |
| dragon | ryan__: need help using pastebin? | 07:00 |
| losher | ^^kickAss: yep, apt-get will think they were downloaded off the net in a previous run, & use them for installing. Of course, you have to be running the same OS version on both machines. You can also generate a list of installed packages on the office machine & use that list to install the same set of packages on the home machine, so they look the same... | 07:00 |
| ryan__ | What do I do? | 07:00 |
| WIGGMPk | dragon: thanks | 07:00 |
| ryan__ | It says Ubuntu Pastebin. | 07:00 |

| delopart | a quick question | 07:02 |
| DasEi | ryan__ :there should be a url (link) in your terminal, copy this in here | 07:02 |
| delopart | how can i check a folder with fsck | 07:02 |
| losher | dragon: er, no flooding please... | 07:02 |
| delopart | for example i want to to check /home/blah/blah | 07:03 |
| dragon | !info fsck | 07:03 |
| ryan__ | http://us.archive.ubuntu.com jaunty/universe pastebinit 0.11.2-0ubuntu1 | 07:03 |
| ubottu | Package fsck does not exist in jaunty | 07:03 |
| dragon | !fsck | 07:03 |
| ubottu | fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot | 07:03 |
| ryan__ | This Url? | 07:03 |
| jussi01 | ryan__: [08:57:54] <DasEi> ryan__ : pastebinit /var/log/syslog | 07:03 |
| delopart | but i dont know the block number | 07:03 |
| delopart | yeah | 07:03 |
| dragon | delopart: you can't use fsck for a folder | 07:03 |
| delopart | it exists | 07:03 |
| jussi01 | ryan__: run that command :) | 07:03 |
| ryan__ | Okay Thanks. | 07:03 |
| delopart | jussi01, | 07:03 |
| delopart | are there any command for checking folder | 07:03 |
| ryan__ | I ran the command, Nothing happened. | 07:04 |
| dragon | delopart: are you trying to check folders for disk errors? | 07:04 |
| === |sparr| is now known as sparr | ||
| dragon | ryan__: no output? | 07:04 |
| DasEi | delopart: you check partitions, use e2fsck, NOT mounted | 07:04 |
| jussi01 | ryan__: what did you run? | 07:04 |
| delopart | yes dragon | 07:04 |
| ryan__ | The Pastebinit /var one | 07:04 |
| jussi01 | ryan__: and it didnt give a url | 07:04 |
| ryan__ | No. | 07:04 |
| ryan__ | Wait. | 07:04 |
| ryan__ | It just did. | 07:05 |
| jussi01 | :D | 07:05 |
| DasEi | ryan__: heh | 07:05 |
| delopart | i use fsck -y -f -c /devsda2 | 07:05 |
| delopart | sometimes | 07:05 |
| ryan__ | http://pastebin.com/f6d5044c4 | 07:05 |
| * jussi01 hands back to DasEi | 07:05 | |
| delopart | but i have some files | 07:05 |
| ryan__ | What's that? | 07:05 |
| dragon | he's got a big syslog | 07:05 |
| dragon | ryan__: click on it ;) | 07:05 |
| delopart | and this files force the system, system is locking for sometime | 07:05 |
| delopart | and fsck doesnt find the mistake for sometime | 07:05 |
| losher | delopart: you can only fsck entire filesystems, and you can't do it while they're mounted. The easiest way to check everything is to do sudo touch /forcefsck and reboot. All filesystems will be checked when the system comes back up... | 07:06 |
| ryan__ | Uhh...What is this? | 07:06 |
| surf}^ | what is this syslog entry? | 07:07 |
| surf}^ | ubuntu kernel: [ 27.685703] sd 0:0:1:0: [sda] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA | 07:07 |
| dragon | ryan__: your syslog | 07:07 |
| ryan__ | What do I do with it? | 07:07 |
| losher | delopart: system hangs are sometimes due to hardware issues. Consider running memtest overnight for a start... | 07:07 |
| dragon | ryan__: wait for others to go through it | 07:07 |
| delopart | no | 07:07 |
| delopart | hardware issue | 07:07 |
| ryan__ | I just type my name and wait? | 07:07 |
| delopart | because i have some other file | 07:08 |
| delopart | that hangs the system | 07:08 |
| delopart | i do fsck 10 times | 07:08 |
| delopart | and it is clear now | 07:08 |
| dragon | surf}^: that looks like something about hard disk #1.. | 07:08 |
| DasEi | ryan__: have a look at yourself, this a logfile of your system startup, where errors can be found | 07:08 |
| ryan__ | I can't do this, I'm totally new to all this. | 07:08 |
| surf}^ | dragon did someone hack in? | 07:08 |
| delopart | no command for checking spesific place | 07:08 |
| delopart | spesific blokcks | 07:09 |
| delopart | or path | 07:09 |
| delopart | ? | 07:09 |
| surf}^ | dragon did someone hack in? IDS? | 07:09 |
| ryan__ | This is so hard, do you think I should stick to windows? I really want to use Ubuntu but it seems complicated. | 07:09 |
| dragon | surf}^: looks normal, i'll see if my system has something like that.. | 07:09 |
| dragon | ryan__: i came in late. what was the issue again? | 07:09 |
| DasEi | ryan__: amongst others, there is a complain about keypressed (lines 7618 and following), which might cause the beeping | 07:10 |
| delopart | debian is more complicated | 07:10 |
| delopart | :D | 07:10 |
| delopart | i still dont understand what is the difference between ubuntu and debian | 07:10 |
| losher | delopart: If the corruption keeps happening, I would check the S.M.A.R.T data for the drive next... | 07:10 |
| ryan__ | Everytime I load Ubuntu it makes a constant beeping sound, it eventually dies down but then there's no audio at all. | 07:10 |
| treetop | how do i open for 80 using the terminal ? | 07:10 |
| dragon | surf}^: i have the same line in my dmesg, so it's normal | 07:10 |
| delopart | i think the onlu difference ubuntu use more up to date than debian | 07:11 |
| dragon | treetop: "for 80"? | 07:11 |
| treetop | the iptable or w/e | 07:11 |
| treetop | yes please | 07:11 |
| delopart | i mean i have pidgin for example | 07:11 |
| delopart | ubuntu use 2.5 debian use 2.2 in the same time | 07:11 |
| surf}^ | dragon what exactly does that mean? which app generated that ? | 07:11 |
| delopart | what S.M.A.R.T data | 07:11 |
| dragon | surf}^: it's the kernel ;) | 07:11 |
| treetop | iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT | 07:12 |
| losher | ryan__: what os version? and what kind of PC? | 07:12 |
| treetop | is that right ? | 07:12 |
| DasEi | ryan__: sudo apt-get install hwinfo | 07:12 |
| surf}^ | dragon I know its the kernel but what does it mean? | 07:12 |
| ryan__ | I'm using an HP and the OS is 9.04 | 07:12 |
| surf}^ | dragon I know its the kernel but what does it mean? Kernel is a black box | 07:12 |
| dragon | surf}^: nothing to worry about, as far as i understand. you might want to google it. | 07:12 |
| krammer__ | I am in the terminal and i want to see the files in a folder but they are not showing when there are files in the folder | 07:12 |

| DasEi | brandon : open a terminal | 07:34 |
| brandon | i will try Opera. | 07:34 |
| brandon | Okay. | 07:34 |
| ActionParsnip | nevyn: why not efficiently? | 07:35 |
| johnseamus | nevyn : i google'd n there r some ppl saying that it could be configured into a switch but there isnt any specific steps on how to do it | 07:35 |
| nevyn | ActionParsnip: ok you could do things with bridges... | 07:35 |
| brandon | i had terminal open aredy. :) | 07:35 |
| ActionParsnip | nevyn: if a pc is on 24/7, why use a switch and a PC if the PC can achieve both | 07:35 |
| nevyn | ActionParsnip: cause the cheapest hardware switch will outperform a pc at switching packets. | 07:35 |

| rssllcr | what is Sudo again | 07:44 |
| ubottu | Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 07:44 |
| Ghoti | RevTy: I think that's a font issue; a box with hex characters is "I don't know what charater #ABCD is" | 07:45 |

| rssllcr | what do I type in the terminal window | 07:47 |
| fahadsadah | !sudo | rssllcr | 07:47 |
| ubottu | rssllcr: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 07:47 |
| Saloca | Hi anyone available ? | 07:47 |
| rssllcr | I look at that webpage | 07:47 |
| fahadsadah | Don't ask to ask, just ask. | 07:47 |
| Ghoti | !ask | Saloca | 07:47 |
| ubottu | Saloca: 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. :-) | 07:47 |
| Saloca | Ok where could i found the Pidgin OP comands ? | 07:48 |
| Ghoti | Saloca: you mean the IRC commands for use in Pidgin? I think /help will give you a list of supported commands, but Pidgin is not the best IRC client out there. | 07:49 |
| Saloca | Ghoti wich one it´s better ? | 07:49 |
| abhishek | then which is the best irc client | 07:50 |
| Paschu | Hi | 07:50 |
| Ghoti | Saloca: it's a matter of taste. Depending on what I'm doing (read: whether I"m at work or not) I use either X-Chat or irssi | 07:50 |
| Paschu | Why is my ubuntu so slow in the internet? maximum is 80 kb/s | 07:50 |
| Saloca | Ok thanks anyway | 07:50 |
| abhishek | how is quassel | 07:50 |
| fahadsadah | Not bad. | 07:50 |
| Paschu | Why is my ubuntu so slow in the internet? maximum is 80 kb/s | 07:51 |
| Ghoti | abhishek: Never used quassel, so I can't give an opinion. | 07:51 |
| jmite | Paschu: can you try another computer to see if it's Ubuntu, or your network? | 07:51 |
| Paschu | yea | 07:51 |
| Paschu | i have a windows box | 07:51 |
| Ghoti | Paschu: kb, or kB? There's a very important difference :) | 07:51 |
| Paschu | and it loads with 200 - 400 kilobyte per second | 07:52 |
| jmite | Paschu: what speed of internet are you paying for from your ISP? How many computers use it at once? | 07:52 |
| Paschu | yesterday i used only my ubuntu | 07:52 |
| Paschu | i pay für 600 but i get 400 | 07:53 |
| Quiznos | mornin | 07:53 |
| Paschu | morning | 07:53 |
| surf}^ | abhishek which irc you use? | 07:53 |
| jmite | Pascho: try http://www.speedtest.net/, see what it says your speed is. chances are, what you're downlading from is not as fast as your internet can be | 07:53 |
| rssllcr | Has anyone tryed Win4lin ? is it better than Sun Virtual Box | 07:56 |
| Paschu | its says 0.30 mbps | 07:56 |
| jmite | paschu: also, make sure to check if it's kb or kB. there are 8 kb to 1 kB, so 400 kb/s is only 50 kB/s | 07:56 |
| Paschu | KILOBYTE | 07:56 |
| Paschu | better? | 07:56 |
| Paschu | since now ill say kilobyte for you | 07:56 |
| Ghoti | .3 MBps = 307.2 KBps, which isn't bad at all, Paschu | 07:57 |
| Paschu | but im in windows | 07:57 |
| fahadsadah | Kilobyte or Kibibyte? | 07:57 |
| Ghoti | (for decimal kilo/mega) | 07:57 |
| Paschu | and i didnt try ubuntu | 07:57 |
| fahadsadah | Kilobyte is 1000 bytes. | 07:57 |
| fahadsadah | Kibibyte is 1024 bytes. | 07:57 |
| Paschu | but yesterday it was horrable | 07:57 |
| jmite | Does anybody here know how to set up an esata thumb drive in jaunty to act like a USB drive with hotplugging and such? The esata card is expresscard 34 | 07:57 |

| surf}^ | Paschu maybe it was you isp | 07:58 |
| rski | Mikess: amarok | 07:58 |
| Paschu | but yesterday i had another problem | 07:58 |
| Ghoti | fahadsadah: Yeah, I'm still ketting used to KiB vs. KB et al. I'm an old crumudgeon who grew up where in PCland, kilo == 1024, and kibi didn't exist :) | 07:58 |

| sol93 | rian: want a launcher, or just make the trash visible on the desktop? | 07:59 |
| rian | no, i mean real launcher made by command. | 08:00 |

| Paschu | i used pidgin and suddenly i couldnt send and receive messages. then i changed to windows and everything was allright | 08:00 |
| Paschu | but the internet worked | 08:00 |
| Paschu | very slowly | 08:00 |
| jmite | nobody has ideas on the esata? not even ubottu? | 08:00 |
| Ghoti | Paschu: I've often had pidgin go catatonic like that on me; that's one reason I only use it for MSMS. | 08:01 |
| Paschu | MSMS? | 08:01 |
| |maxbots| | Oops... Guess my router didn't like being knowcked on the floor | 08:01 |
| Ghoti | Paschu: Microsoft Message Service, aka Live chat, aka .NET Messenger, aka Windows Messenger, or whatever they call it next week | 08:01 |
| Paschu | whats that | 08:01 |
| Paschu | ah k | 08:02 |

| Paschu | or MSMS | 08:02 |
| rian | sol93: no, i mean real launcher that made by command | 08:02 |
| sol93 | johnseamus: you need to activate forwarding, and of course you need several NICs. I can dig out my old script, if you want it | 08:02 |
| Paschu | or skype | 08:02 |
| Ghoti | icq != IRC; I imaging pidgin is just fine for ICQ; I haven't used ICQ in.. qoq, almost a decade now | 08:02 |
| Ghoti | (qoq --> wow) | 08:02 |

| Stumpie | thats a great idea :) thanks guys :) | 08:04 |
| surf}^ | johnseamus network router? ICS? hub? | 08:04 |
| Ghoti | Paschu: that's the problem I have with other protocols with Pidgin; sometimes it says it's online, but no messages go in or out. Psi is an alternative progran you could look into that woks much like Pidgin with respect to protocols | 08:04 |
| surf}^ | johnseamus network router? ICS? hub? smart hub? switch? | 08:04 |

| Ghoti | (or .tar.gz) | 08:07 |
| fahadsadah | HighLordObsi: For a .tar.gz, tar zxvf FILENAME | 08:07 |
| fahadsadah | HighLordObsi: For a .tar.bz2, tar jxvf FILENAME | 08:07 |

| Ghoti | Gnea: really? Tar silently parses and picks decompression chemes now? Nifty! | 08:08 |
| HighLordObsi | my exact typing is tar xzvf realtek-linux-audiopack-4.06a.tar.gz2 | 08:08 |

| Ghoti | Gnea: *facepalm* | 08:09 |

| Gnea | HighLordObsi: when you type it, try like this: tar xvf realtek<TAB> | 08:09 |
| Gnea | HighLordObsi: where <TAB> is the tab key | 08:10 |
| HighLordObsi | yeah, it tells me what commands can follow | 08:10 |

| rww | !version | dylan` | 08:32 |
| ubottu | dylan`: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell - To know the available version of a package, « apt-cache policy <package> » | 08:32 |
| Gnea | !ask | paschu | 08:33 |
| ubottu | paschu: 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. :-) | 08:33 |
| Gnea | clane: how are you putting it into passive mode? | 08:33 |
| flavie | hello | 08:33 |
| paschu | my ubuntu is so slow in the internet. I can download 300 kilobyte/s with my windows and with my ubuntu i get max. 80 | 08:33 |
| Gnea | paschu: some sites are faster than others. | 08:34 |
| nick125 | paschu: Are you downloading from the same host? | 08:34 |
| paschu | yea | 08:34 |
| Gnea | which host? | 08:34 |
| paschu | chip.de | 08:34 |
| clane | Gnea: vsftpd config passive is enabled, not sure what you mean exactly | 08:34 |
| flavie | I tried to install ubuntu 9.04 in dual boot with XP, since I installed ubuntu, XP doesnt appear on grub | 08:34 |
| paschu | i was already on speedtest.net | 08:35 |
| Gnea | clane: that's exactly it. do you have port 20 opened as well? | 08:35 |
| OramahMaalhur | good day | 08:35 |
| clane | Gnea: no, that is for active ftp only i thought? | 08:35 |
| paschu | but it says that i will have more speed than on windows | 08:35 |
| flavie | This machine is an AMD 64, and the disk with XP on it was formated in NTFS | 08:35 |
| paschu | on windows the server has 65 ping and on ubuntu 210 | 08:35 |
| Gnea | clane: perhaps you don't understand the difference between regular and passive ftp.... | 08:35 |
| paschu | what is that? | 08:35 |
| OramahMaalhur | recently I've upgraded mine system and now I can't boot mine XServer at all - even if I remove the whole fglrx bunch and reconfigure the Xserver using dkms-reconfigure. Any Idea what should I do ? | 08:36 |
| paschu | for 10 MB i need 30 minutes on ubuntu | 08:36 |
| Gnea | clane: might want to give this a good gleam before continuing: http://slacksite.com/other/ftp.html | 08:36 |
| OramahMaalhur | booting older kernels doesn't helps :( | 08:36 |
| paschu | and in windows only 2 minutes | 08:36 |
| paschu | same computer | 08:37 |
| paschu | same internet | 08:37 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: what was the exact command that you used to configure? surely it wasn't dkms-reconfigure... dpkg-configure, perhaps? | 08:37 |
| paschu | but the speed is different | 08:37 |
| clane | Gnea: when i run 'modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp' my ftp connection starts working fine | 08:37 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:38 |
| sol93 | Anyone knows, how to make Thunderbird work with the profile on a mounted smb folder? Tried to google for days, no solution. | 08:38 |
| sol93 | I don't even found out, what the problem is | 08:39 |
| paschu_ | i need a answer | 08:39 |
| paschu_ | i need a answer | 08:39 |
| sol93 | !patience | paschu_ | 08:39 |
| ubottu | paschu_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org while you wait. | 08:39 |
| clane | Gnea: after reading that page, passive ftp doesn't seem to require port 20 at all | 08:40 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: try it like this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xortg | 08:40 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: -t | 08:40 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, but it now doesn't changes anything in the xorg file | 08:40 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, tried couple of time | 08:40 |
| OramahMaalhur | times | 08:40 |
| * sol93 feels tempted to repeat his question often, too | 08:41 | |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: you just have to run that exact command once, then try to start the Xserver | 08:41 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, which answers should I give? the default ? | 08:41 |
| DasEi | paschu: you might play around with ethtool, to get settings checked, and paste the out from ifconfig | 08:41 |
| sol93 | how can I allow my user to mount a smb share? | 08:41 |
| Gnea | sol93: I would make a symbolic link | 08:41 |
| clane | sol93: ciffs | 08:41 |
| clane | !cifs | 08:41 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cifs | 08:41 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, doesn't helps | 08:42 |
| sol93 | tried to use a slink | 08:42 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: answers? it shouldn't ask anything. | 08:42 |
| DasEi | sol93: put it in fstab | 08:42 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, the recent command doesn't ask anything - but XServer still not usable :( | 08:42 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: in which case, you'll need to pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log file so we can figure out why | 08:42 |
| Gnea | !pastebin | 08:43 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://tinyurl.com/imagebin | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic | 08:43 |
| clane | Gnea: sorry to waste your time! I had 'modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp' in the /etc/modules file instead of just 'ip_conntrack_ftp' | 08:43 |
| DasEi | !smb | sol93 | 08:43 |
| ubottu | sol93: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and https://help.ubuntu.com/9.04/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 08:43 |
| sol93 | DasEi: i'll try that... maybe Thunderbird likes the mounted share, if i mount it as user | 08:43 |
| Gnea | clane: lol, good catch - np | 08:43 |
| clane | anyone good with iptables? | 08:44 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, its empty | 08:44 |
| styol_ | mdg you still around by chance | 08:45 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: that's not right... okay, run X like this from the commandline: X > X.log then pastebin the X.log file | 08:46 |

| sergeykish | Hello, Internal microphone doesn't work on Ubuntu 9.04 Acer Aspire One 751. Found manual https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne, it say all must work. Can you help? | 08:50 |

| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, shows something and then screen blinks | 08:51 |
| nephlim | is there anyway to make an encrypted drive with a system already installed, without data loss? | 08:51 |
| OramahMaalhur | and I can't see anything - only the poweroff key works :) | 08:51 |
| clane | to get manpages is it 'aptitude install man-db' ? | 08:51 |
| clane | !man | 08:52 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: then you are doing something wrong :) | 08:52 |
| ubottu | The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | Manpages online: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ | 08:52 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, cool | 08:52 |
| OramahMaalhur | I've upgrade the system - and that was wrong! | 08:52 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: when you can't see anything, what happens if you press ctrl-alt-backspace? | 08:52 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, doesn't responds | 08:52 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: it's possible, if you didn't install all of the regular updates before upgrading | 08:52 |
| DasEi | nephlim: no, got to backup and reformat | 08:52 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: and if you press ctrl-alt-f1? | 08:52 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, I've done everythin via aptitude update, aptitude safe-upgrade | 08:53 |
| nephlim | DasEi, what if i formated a new clean drive with crypto and just CP'd everything over, then set the new disk as master? would that work | 08:53 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: let's try something else then: sudo apt-get update & sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 08:53 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, If I press ctrl+alt+f1 doesn't responds (I'm in the filesafe mode) | 08:53 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: filesafe mode? | 08:54 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, recovery mode | 08:54 |
| OramahMaalhur | :) | 08:54 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: it's generally assumed that you are operating in regular mode. of course, it isn't going to work in recovery mode. | 08:55 |
| DasEi | nephlim : yes, just a fresh install, then copy files in there, sure | 08:55 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, But i can't boot in any other mode :( | 08:55 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: then you'll simply need to reinstall. | 08:55 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, cool | 08:55 |
| nephlim | DasEi, cool. thanks for the help good sir :) | 08:55 |

| Wazzzaaa | Hi, When I start OpenOffice, Ubuntu crashes... Sometimes it starts when I remove ~/.openoffice But when I start it again Ubuntu crashes again... | 08:55 |
| OramahMaalhur | update the system - and then reinstall - just like the Microsoft suggests! | 08:56 |
| Wazzzaaa | Any ideas where to look? Now, Im searching in /var/log/ but didn't find anything yet.. | 08:56 |
| jacquesdupontd | hrm | 08:56 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: somewhere along the way, you missed a step or more. the system is now not operating correctly. | 08:56 |
| jacquesdupontd | i never do reinstall | 08:56 |
| clane | when running 'free -m' is the second line the more correct one? | 08:56 |
| jacquesdupontd | there's always way to repair everything on linux | 08:57 |
| tfitw | My system is "ubuntu text system",it hasn't voice,why? | 08:57 |
| ikonia | clane: what do you mean, the more forrect ? | 08:57 |
| ikonia | correct | 08:57 |
| jacquesdupontd | long live to life CD | 08:57 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: since you don't know what you're doing, it will be easier for you to learn and get it working again by reinstalling. | 08:57 |
| waieez | Hi, i just formatted my 500gb HD as a primary partition under the ext3 filesystem(?). I'm expecting the equivalent of a D:\ drive but am not seeing it. | 08:57 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, I've upgraded the system using the original software from ubuntu - just updated the kernel | 08:57 |
| ikonia | waieez: linux doesn't use drive letter, you have to mount it | 08:57 |
| OramahMaalhur | Gnea, I know what I'm doing ;) | 08:57 |
| Gnea | jacquesdupontd: do you have any constructive criticism to add? | 08:57 |
| Gnea | OramahMaalhur: I doubt that. :) | 08:58 |
| clane | ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/246956/ - as you can see the usage numbers are quite different, the man page doesnt explain the output very well | 08:58 |
| waieez | ikonia: i can't see the drive itself | 08:58 |
| ikonia | waieez: wherer you looking | 08:58 |
| ikonia | clane: mem = memory swap = swap space - that's the two lines and why they are different | 08:58 |
| ikonia | clane: it looks like you only have 256 or ram | 08:58 |
| waieez | ikonia: under computer | 08:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | Gnea, oh don't worry it was not a criticism more a something good to say about linux | 08:59 |
| ikonia | waieez: you'll only see mounted devices under that | 08:59 |
| clane | ikonia: -/+ buffers/cache line is what is getting me | 08:59 |
| === lavacano5 is now known as lavacano201014 | ||
| ikonia | clane: don't worry about that | 08:59 |
| Gnea | jacquesdupontd: unfortunately, it doesn't always ring true all the time. | 08:59 |
| waieez | ikonia: well. where do i look? | 08:59 |
| jacquesdupontd | Gnea, you're right | 08:59 |
| tfitw | My system is "ubuntu text system",it hasn't voice,why? | 08:59 |
| ikonia | waieez: you have to mount it | 08:59 |
| clane | ikonia: damn, im almost maxing out memory, with just ftpd/httpd/mysqld | 09:00 |
| waieez | ikonia: i cant select it to mount it, which is my problem. I cant even see it/dont know where it is | 09:00 |
| ikonia | clane: you only have 256 meg of ram | 09:00 |
| Wazzzaaa | Hi, When I start OpenOffice, Ubuntu crashes... Sometimes it starts when I remove ~/.openoffice But when I start it again Ubuntu crashes again... Any ideas where to look? Didn't find anything in /var/log | 09:00 |
| clane | its running headless no GUI, need to find some fat to cut out | 09:00 |
| ikonia | waieez open gparted and set it up using that tool | 09:00 |
| jacquesdupontd | !swap | 09:01 |
| ubottu | swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 09:01 |
| clane | ikonia: any idea to reduce that usage even more ? | 09:01 |
| tfitw | help me! My system is "ubuntu text system",it hasn't voice,why? | 09:01 |
| ikonia | tfitw: because sound is part of the destop sstem | 09:01 |
| ikonia | system | 09:01 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, i don't understand you're blind , | 09:01 |
| ikonia | clane: look at what's running and cut down anything you don't need | 09:02 |
| tfitw | ikonia, No.It included in linux core! | 09:02 |
| OramahMaalhur | So did anyone else can suggest anything to make X server working after upgrade to 2.6.28.15 kernel with Ati video card? | 09:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, i didn't even knew there was a ubuntu text system | 09:02 |
| ikonia | clane: keep in mind that mysql will use ram even if it's not needed, and you have 139mb acting as "cache" so that's not really in use | 09:02 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, don't you talk about ubuntu server ? | 09:02 |
| ikonia | tfitw: what's in "linux core" and what is "linux core" | 09:02 |
| tfitw | jacquesdupontd, yes | 09:03 |
| tfitw | kernel | 09:03 |
| tfitw | ikonia, kernel | 09:03 |
| ikonia | tfitw: what about it ? | 09:04 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, i don't know at all if you could had a package with the voices | 09:04 |
| waieez | ikonia: I've already partitioned it, Before it was not formatted (i could see it under computer but could not mount it) i figured i would have to format it first. After i "set it up" as a Primary Partition, with ext3 filesystem. it completely disappeared from "computer" | 09:04 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, i never tested "ubuntu server" and the thing is i don't know if there's a sound server | 09:04 |
| tfitw | jacquesdupontd, it has been included in linux kernel | 09:05 |
| cwraig | \ | 09:05 |
| cwraig | q/ | 09:05 |
| cwraig | oeau/l[[Beuasnth | 09:05 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, running alsa ? | 09:05 |
| waieez | ikonia: i can still see it. its there when i use gparted. but i cant locate it with the filebrowser | 09:05 |
| tfitw | ikonia, linux kernel | 09:05 |
| ikonia | waieez: because it's not mounted | 09:05 |
| waieez | ikonia: but i cant rightclick the thing to mount it. how do i mount it? | 09:05 |
| tfitw | jacquesdupontd, I don't know | 09:06 |
| ikonia | waieez: no - you can only mount something like that if it has a mount point pre-defined or a disk label | 09:06 |
| iwobbles | is it possible to roll back the effects of update manager ? last update has broken firefox so I cant do emails anymore and many buttons on web sites no longer appear Im using 9.04 and have the same effect on 3 different machines ? | 09:06 |
| tfitw | jacquesdupontd, But there is a dirctort named alsa | 09:06 |
| waieez | ikonia: well, what should i do? reformat simply as an extended partition? | 09:06 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, do you hear any sound ? | 09:06 |
| ikonia | waieez: the type of partition primary/extended makes no different | 09:06 |
| tfitw | jacquesdupontd, no | 09:07 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, anyway "ubuntu server" is usually used to be touched from another computer that is connected to it and have no screen and no sound | 09:07 |
| DasEi | waieez: want a workthrough to permantnently mount it ? | 09:07 |
| ikonia | waieez: I'm just trying to sort out a tool for you, so you don't have to manually edit the text | 09:07 |
| waieez | dasei: yes | 09:07 |
| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, why are you searching for the sound ? | 09:07 |
| beau | Whats the command to unpack a .package file? | 09:08 |

| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, and ? i don't really see the point of how you wanna use it and why in this case you didn't installed "ubuntu desktop" | 09:10 |
| DasEi | waieez: open a terminal | 09:10 |
| waieez | dasei: keep going | 09:10 |
| DasEi | waieez: sudo fdisk -l | 09:10 |

| jacquesdupontd | tfitw, then it's much better to reinstall it, the "desktop version" or "alternate if you're computer is old" and then install packages to make it a server | 09:11 |

| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||

| nibbler_ | apexhouse_: because this sort of traffic controll is out of scope of the dhcp server, how could he enforce that? i mean if computers are on the same layer 2 network... even if you would trick something with the dhcp like putting everyone into seperate subnet, its a client config which can be changed client side | 10:25 |
| tfitw | jacquesdupontd,? | 10:25 |

| qob0127 | mizipzor: you cannot upgrade from 8.04 to 9.04. only from 8.04 to 8.10 and then from 8.10 to 9.04. or you can stay with 8.04 which has long term support, which 9.04 has not. | 10:28 |

| sol93 | Slart: alright, i will have to reconfigure my xorg.conf for getting the failure. I'll be back | 10:57 |
| gogeta | targus: shure you will be emulating x86 so it whont be fast | 10:57 |
| Slart | !sudo | boonyo | 10:57 |

| targus | gogeta i had to forgo on my rent to by my ps3 lol | 11:00 |
| Slart | ShishKabab: there is a history function.. try running "history" in a terminal | 11:00 |
| masquerade | Qu4R0w: k, thanks anyways | 11:00 |
| gogeta | LOL | 11:00 |
| damo22 | how do i stop resolv.conf resetting the nameserver to my router? | 11:00 |
| VSpike | ShishKabab: the built in history goes some way to that | 11:00 |
| Cube | hey, is there a (real time updating) COMMAND LINE WORLD CLOCK? | 11:00 |
| Qu4R0w | i already "sudo mount /dev/sda8 /media/sda8" but after i reboot,it not mount autimatically(it not remember my setting).how to make it well? | 11:01 |
| paschu_ | How can i delete my games? | 11:01 |
| gogeta | targus: flash your kinda screwed java you can do | 11:01 |
| Slart | ShishKabab: there are many ways of retrieving already run commands.. man bash explains the details | 11:01 |
| VSpike | ShishKabab: you maybe want the incremental search function... try typing ctrl-R and part of a command text and it will find the most recent match. keep pressing ctrl-R for more matches | 11:01 |
| gogeta | targus: i think you can turn off that nagging window on the ps3 broswer | 11:01 |
| targus | gogeta: i only make a lousy 700 dollars a month from my job and my rent is 500 dollars so instead of paying rent one month i bought me a ps3 for my birthday | 11:02 |

| c0l2e1 | anyone using Virtualbox here? | 11:02 |
| Slart | c0l2e1: sure | 11:02 |

| c0l2e1 | How can I configure NAT network? | 11:02 |
| pcascini | Does anyone know why fullscreen with nvidia lags (e.g. when something extra appears on the screens). It used to be ok, but now i have the same problem on two completely different machines | 11:02 |
| paschu_ | i dont get sound in abuse | 11:02 |
| paschu_ | abuse is a game btw | 11:02 |
| Slart | !ics | c0l2e1 | 11:03 |
| ubottu | c0l2e1: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 11:03 |
| Slart | c0l2e1: it's basically the same way that you do it on a real machine | 11:03 |
| balleyne | what should I do to make FF 3.5 my default web browser? installed via apt-get from ubuntu repos | 11:03 |
| targus | gogeta ill check again but i didnt see anything to turen it off the first time around | 11:03 |
| c0l2e1 | I made the client as NAT but can't find any DHCP server as list it was host-only | 11:03 |
| ShishKabab | VSpike: This is not what I mean. I already know if the history and CTRL-R and use them on a daily basis. But commands go out of your history after some time. I'd like to mark some to stick in my history... | 11:03 |
| mib_mib | question - i'm a newb - i have solr, a java serach engine running for my site - (java -jar star.jar) - however, is there some better way to run this? I mean as a process that restart automatically, etc - much like apache and stuff? | 11:04 |
| sol93 | When I try to activate 1600x1200 on a radeon 9200, the monitor turns itself off. This time, the console crashed (not responding anymore), but I can still connect to the machine via ssh. Xorg.0.log: http://pastebin.com/f13b7f05f xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/f2dcb74ea | 11:04 |
| Slart | c0l2e1: oh.. wait.. you meant the NAT setting in the network properties.. | 11:04 |
| VSpike | ShishKabab: the best way I know to do that is just to create a ~/bin directory and put scripts in there with short names for commonly used commands | 11:04 |
| funcky11 | every time i check "allow other people to write in this folder" in samba, then restart, it is unchecked when i go back. what's the problem? | 11:04 |
| paschu_ | do you all ignore me? :( | 11:04 |
| Slart | c0l2e1: that one just works out of the box for me.. have never had to configure anything | 11:04 |
| targus | gogeta: i do know ubuntu will not read a usb 1tb ntfs drive | 11:04 |
| c0l2e1 | Slart: hmm | 11:05 |
| c0l2e1 | Slart: in vmware it works out of the box | 11:05 |
| TrentH | Hello, was wondering if there is a way to auto complete a word/file when typing in the terminal? | 11:05 |
| c0l2e1 | Slart: I made the guest OS network adapter as NAT | 11:05 |
| Slart | !tab | TrentH | 11:05 |
| ubottu | TrentH: You can use your <tab> key for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 11:05 |
| VSpike | ShishKabab: but I see what you mean - a quick "bookmark" to a hotkey would be nice | 11:05 |
| paschu_ | targus: did you try it? | 11:05 |
| c0l2e1 | Slart: what else should i configure? | 11:05 |
| boonyo | Yes sry about the sudo, that I can do... but what if I want root... | 11:05 |
| Slart | c0l2e1: hmm.. and that didn't work? afaik that is all you have to do | 11:05 |
| ShishKabab | VSpike: That's ugly. I was hoping there is some kind of brilliant app like cdargs. | 11:05 |
| TrentH | Does that work for Debian as well? | 11:05 |
| targus | paschu: yes i did thats how i know it wont work | 11:05 |
| Slart | !root | boonyo | 11:05 |
| ubottu | boonyo: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 11:05 |
| Slart | !supportroot | boonyo | 11:06 |
| ubottu | boonyo: We do not support having a root password set. See !root and !wfm for more information. | 11:06 |

| targus | paschu: 9.04 | 11:06 |
| c0l2e1 | Slart: hmm | 11:06 |
| Slart | boonyo: basically.. ubuntu is designed to use sudo.. and that's what is supported | 11:06 |
| paschu_ | oh | 11:06 |
| boonyo | what if when you try and run sudo it says "sudo: must be setuid root" | 11:07 |
| macgyver_ | hey all, | 11:07 |
| paschu_ | targus: externel hard drive or a normal HD? | 11:07 |
| funcky11 | how do i get samba to allow me to write to other computers in ubuntu? every time i check "allow other people to write in this folder" in samba, then restart, it is unchecked when i go back. what's the problem? | 11:07 |
| Slart | TrentH: I think so.. afaik it's been used for quite a long time.. | 11:07 |
| TrentH | Slart: Thank you. | 11:07 |
| Slart | boonyo: hmm.. what are you trying to run? | 11:07 |
| macgyver_ | if I want to stop daemons and processes from starting on boot, what is the best way to do this? | 11:07 |
| balleyne | anyone know how I should change my default FF from 3.0 to 3.5? | 11:07 |
| boonyo | slart sudo | 11:07 |
| boonyo | sudo itself | 11:07 |
| Slart | !boot | macgyver_ | 11:07 |
| ubottu | macgyver_: Boot options: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions - To add/remove startup services, you can use the package 'bum', or update-rc.d - To add your own startup scripts, use /etc/rc.local - See also !grub and !dualboot - Making a boot floppy: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy - Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto | 11:07 |
| targus | paschu: an external usb i tb hard drive formatted into the ntfs filing system | 11:08 |
| boonyo | somehow i managed to move the +s attribute | 11:08 |
| Slart | boonyo: so "sudo ls" just gives you that error? | 11:08 |
| bazhang | balleyne, system prefs preferred applications | 11:08 |
| boonyo | yup | 11:08 |
| macgyver_ | Slart, thank you immensly! | 11:08 |
| Slart | boonyo: odd.. what version of ubuntu? | 11:08 |
| frogzoo | if sudo loses the +s, you need to boot single user & put it back | 11:08 |
| Slart | boonyo: anything non-standard about the install? or just a regular install? | 11:08 |
| boonyo | the most recent one... i was fooling around with permissions and sudo chmod o-rx /usr/bin/sudo and now I cant sudo | 11:09 |
| sol93 | Oops... my fault- the console doesnt crash, the monitor sometimes needs to be turned off and on again. So my question is: When I try to activate 1600x1200 on a radeon 9200, the monitor turns itself off. Xorg.0.log: http://pastebin.com/f13b7f05f xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/f2dcb74ea | 11:09 |
| boonyo | regular install, I could sudo just a few minutes ago.. oops | 11:09 |
| gogeta | targus: people say you can turn off that annoying promt | 11:09 |
| Slart | boonyo: oh... that might explain it... hang on.. let me check what the permissions on sudo should be | 11:09 |
| jcldp | hello guys | 11:09 |
| paschu_ | how to delete games? | 11:10 |
| jcldp | i need help with a little problem here | 11:10 |
| steve__ | hi can anyone help with bootup problems?? | 11:10 |
| gogeta | targus: he said somewhere lol | 11:10 |
| Cube | what is KFMCLIENT a member of? what package? | 11:10 |
| bazhang | paschu_, how installed | 11:10 |
| Cube | because (im on gnome) when i type it into terminal, it gives me its syntax and all that stuff. but when i say sudo apt-get install (or even remove) kfmclient, it says it cannot find the package | 11:10 |
| balleyne | bazhang: hmm, thanks, but when I run 'firefox' (or click Applications>Internet>Firefox) it'll still default to firefox-3.0, right? do you know if I should edit the /usr/bin/firefox sym link manually, or if there's an update-alternates style method instead? | 11:10 |
| targus | gogeta: huh i must of not seen it in the options in the cross media operating system for the ps3 | 11:10 |
| paschu_ | terminal | 11:10 |
| paschu_ | bazhang: with the sudo command | 11:10 |
| bazhang | paschu_, what game | 11:10 |
| paschu_ | abuse | 11:10 |
| macgyver_ | Slart, another silly question, I somehow, change the resolution of the boot process and grub screen to a blue background, what app was that in? | 11:10 |
| paschu_ | the game is called abuse | 11:10 |
| macgyver_ | because I did it in X | 11:10 |
| macgyver_ | not in console | 11:10 |
| bazhang | paschu_, sudo apt-get remove abuse | 11:11 |
| Slart | boonyo: permissions for sudo should be 4755 | 11:11 |
| paschu_ | thx | 11:11 |
| Slart | boonyo: try setting it to that and see if things start working | 11:11 |
| jcldp | I use opera on ubuntu 9.04 but i cant get it to work as default browser, it is setup on the "default applications" menu, but everytime a click on a link Firefox opens... Please help!!! | 11:11 |
| Slart | macgyver_: you can do that in an app called "Startup manager".. it should be in system, administration | 11:11 |
| balleyne | bazhang: oh, nm, I get it. It's listed as Shiretoko instead. thanks :) | 11:11 |
| bazhang | balleyne, its called shiretoko or firefox-3.5 | 11:12 |
| Slart | !ff35 | 11:12 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3.5 Final is available for Jaunty by installing the package firefox-3.5 and firefox-3.5-gnome-support | FF3.5 is referred to as Shiretoko on your UI, see http://is.gd/1reB3 for an explanation | Hardy & Intrepid: http://is.gd/1jkNY | 11:12 |

| Quiznos | targus the spec sheet would tell you technical limitations on ram amounts | 11:25 |
| tarelerulz | Have any of you made the jump from one gb of ram to 4 and from 32 bit to 64bit ? Will really just see the differents in ram. I really do want to use all 4 gb not just what 32bit lets me | 11:25 |
| Quiznos | or should tell | 11:25 |
| ulquiorra | i686 @jrib | 11:25 |
| targus | quiznos: it only got 4 sockets for ram each holds 1 gig but only ddr ram | 11:25 |
| jrib | tarelerulz: sure but you need to reinstall | 11:26 |
| Quiznos | targus ok | 11:26 |
| delopart | hey | 11:26 |
| targus | quiznos: so the ram is slow the cpu is kinda slow as its not a dual core or quad core | 11:26 |
| Quiznos | targus maybe the ram is not the correct kind? | 11:27 |
| Quiznos | or the ram hw is bad (not the ram itself) | 11:27 |
| Quiznos | or both | 11:27 |
| jrib | ulquiorra: easiest way is to just copy the libflashplayer.so file into your ~/.mozilla/plugins/ . And do the same for whatever directory opera uses in your ~ | 11:27 |
| Quiznos | targus boot memtest | 11:27 |
| targus | quiznos: it uses ddr ram 3200 and all 4 check out as the bios reads them all | 11:27 |
| Quiznos | ok | 11:28 |
| ulquiorra | okay, I'll try | 11:28 |
| targus | quiznos: i dont have a mem test like vista does ill never go to vista to much of a resource hog | 11:28 |
| kelli | what is the best way to learn how to build an OS? | 11:28 |
| Quiznos | targus if bios has "optimsed' settings option for mem, try the available options and run memtest or other thing in each setting | 11:28 |

| Quiznos | duno | 11:30 |
| Quiznos | i think not tho | 11:30 |
| jrib | targus: not really... | 11:30 |

| boonyo | is there any good guides to hardening ubuntu? | 11:30 |
| Quiznos | boonyo goog linux+hardening instead | 11:31 |

| Quiznos | ok | 11:33 |

| jrib | !firewall | boonyo | 11:33 |
| ubottu | boonyo: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in.

| jrib | targus: called "ubuntu" | 11:35 |
| sol93 | targus: i fear, they will make it so. i really fear. *shudders* | 11:35 |
| jrib | targus: what commands have you needed? | 11:35 |
| targus | jrib:no its not u still need cmd lines to do stuff in unbuntu | 11:35 |
| jrib | targus: nope | 11:35 |
| sol93 | targus: Some people need the command line in windows, too. | 11:36 |
| linny | targus: when you are a child you use a computer by looking at the pictures. When you grow up, you learn to read and write. | 11:36 |
| targus | jrib to access certain features u need to type in cmds in the termanil | 11:36 |
| jrib | targus: "certain features"? | 11:36 |
| targus | jrib:yea like fbset and a lot of others | 11:37 |
| AsgardBeast | targus : I would think that if you like Windows then that is what you should use. Me personally I hope Linux stays Linux. | 11:37 |
| linny | targus: i think you fighting a losing battle coming here and dissing the bash shell mate | 11:37 |
| jrib | targus: frame buffer settings? heh... | 11:37 |

| targus | im not dissing nothing what i was saying is make it so newbies can do stuff and not have to use cmd linres | 11:38 |
| WholeGrains | !ask | katmai | 11:38 |
| ubottu | katmai: 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. :-) | 11:38 |
| jacekowski | paschu: you will get used to it | 11:38 |
| paschu | why did my ubuntu crash??? | 11:38 |
| reves | has anybody successfully rotated a screen 90 degrees with the resolution etc working nicely.. and the X session reaching all the way to the bottom of the now 'portrait' screen? if so please for the love of god... gimme a hand | 11:38 |
| reves | i cant take it anymore | 11:38 |
| paschu | i was in the internetz, herd music, pidgin was on too | 11:38 |
| jrib | targus: but which commands have you used that noobie would need? I'd say that as long as nothing "breaks" you can easily use ubuntu without inputting a single command | 11:39 |
| paschu | and then it crashed | 11:39 |
| jacekowski | reves: xrandr | 11:39 |
| AsgardBeast | targus : as a newbie Windoze user. Did you know where to find everything right away? | 11:39 |
| linny | targus: imo most of the commands one needs are simple enuff and anyone can google and cut and paste | 11:39 |
| paschu | BANG | 11:39 |
| jacekowski | paschu: same reason why windows crashes | 11:39 |
| jacekowski | paschu: 3rd party drivers | 11:39 |
| jacekowski | paschu: in 99% of cases | 11:39 |
| targus | linny: you really cant c&p from one system to another | 11:39 |
| paschu | damn | 11:39 |
| reves | jacekowski: ... please elaborate? i know xrandr is required... but my newly rotated X session wont show the bottom third of the portrait screen | 11:39 |
| katmai | i have problems with my wireless connection. I have to setup my wireless every time i boot up my linux. I use ndiswrapper drivers | 11:39 |
| silare | targus: C&P in command line? | 11:40 |
| silare | targus: Yes you can. | 11:40 |
| sp4z | hey does anybody know of any software that can configure internet connection sharing without having to go into the CLI etc every time? | 11:40 |
| paschu | whats wrong with youtube? theres a grey windows with a grey play button | 11:40 |
| paschu | whats this? | 11:40 |
| targus | silare: you read me wrong i said between systems not dialog boxes | 11:40 |
| paschu | wrong flash player? | 11:40 |
| amikrop | Where can I find online documentation about the python-subversion package? It seems it is different than pysvn.tigris.org | 11:40 |
| jacekowski | paschu: that's just linux flashplayer | 11:41 |
| jacekowski | paschu: adobe doesn't care to much | 11:41 |
| paschu | i need:/ | 11:41 |
| jrib | amikrop: check /usr/share/doc/python-subversion ? | 11:41 |
| AsgardBeast | targus : Besides how much easier is it to type gedit docname.txt then it is to go to Applications > Accessories > Text Editor > Open > ect.. ect.. ect.. | 11:41 |
| silare | masquerade: Did you remember the name of that GTD app yet? >_>; | 11:41 |
| targus | silare: like looking up the stuff on a computer that has internet access to do sytuff on another system that dont you cant c&p that way | 11:41 |
| masquerade | silare: im still thinking | 11:41 |
| silare | targus: Ah, yes. | 11:42 |

| jcldp | well I published my question at ubuntu forums, please help | 11:43 |
| linny | targus: both text based interfaces and guis have their pros an cons but it annoys me that some ppl assciate text with increased difficulty i really dont think its any harder its just different | 11:43 |

| jcldp | I use opera on ubuntu 9.04 but i cant get it to work as default browser, it is setup on the "System-> Preferences-> Preferred Applications" menu, but everytime a click on a link Firefox opens... Please help!!! btw... I started to use Opera because I upgraded firefox to 3.5 and it crashes everytime after a few seconds... and its slow. Opera its working faster, but i cant get it to be as default browser. | 11:44 |
| VSpike | the more you use a text interface the more you find yourself thinking "i wonder if there's a cli version of $app .." | 11:44 |
| gbear14275 | jrib: thanks... will look at that. Am still curious about a "mount manager" or something. Seems like it would be a good tool to have within ubuntu. Editing fstab can be dangerous and so a tool which helps to make it less risky would be good. | 11:44 |
| AsgardBeast | gbear14275 : try xvmount | 11:44 |
| jrib | gbear14275: don't know of one | 11:44 |
| linny | VSpike: so true it grows on you | 11:44 |
| gbear14275 | AsgardBeast: I'll look at vxmount | 11:45 |
| targus | linny: that is true but my wife is a newbie and hates to do that stuff. im from the old school my first program i learned was 10 ? "hello" 20 goto 10 | 11:45 |
| jrib | VSpike: I wonder if theer is an cli version of $app with vim bindings... | 11:45 |
| VSpike | linny: I dunno about you but i'd rather spend 30 mins finding a quick way to do something on the command line than 10 minutes of repetetive gui clicking | 11:45 |
| sol93 | gbear14275: for ntfs drives, ntfs-config does the trick | 11:46 |

| sol93 | I still cant get Thunderbird to accept the profile, when i mount a share to that directory. The same data copied to the dir from that share, and TB works.

| innomen | Network manager is frequently becoming "uninterruptable" is there a way to kill this process without powering down? (even rebooting hangs, it must be forcibly powered off | 12:24 |
| kaini | innomen, kill -9 | 12:25 |
| kaini | But be careful with that | 12:25 |
| innomen | does the -9 switch make it more effective than system manager's "kill process"? | 12:26 |
| Cyrus258011 | VSpike: i can't seem to find thunderbird | 12:27 |
| macgyver_ | next silly question, Evolution will not start via the application shortcut in the menu, but.... it will start if I type evolution in console! | 12:27 |
| innomen | Repeat for the split rejoins: does the -9 switch make it more effective than system manager's "kill process"? | 12:27 |
| kaini | Yes | 12:27 |
| kaini | -9 is absolute deadly | 12:27 |
| macgyver_ | next silly question, Evolution will not start via the application shortcut in the menu, but.... it will start if I type evolution in console! | 12:27 |
| Cyrus258011 | VSpike: am i doing something wrong. i used F3 search and it can't find it | 12:27 |
| * macgyver_ is swapping to thnderbird | 12:27 | |
| innomen | you gave me a warning but i didnt see it | 12:27 |
| innomen | in what way should i be careful? | 12:27 |
| delopart | how can i find repository of karmic kola | 12:27 |
| Irreducibilis | Is it hella netsplititng in here too? | 12:27 |
| targus | Irreducibilis: yes it is | 12:28 |
| macgyver_ | Irreducibilis, yes | 12:28 |
| innomen | and when you say kill -9 are you assuming that i know to add things to that or can i simply type kill -9 in a terminal and that solves the problem? | 12:28 |
| kaini | innomen, kill -9 will simply remove the process from the ram and stop executing it. everything is away if you kill for example openoffice with that | 12:28 |
| kaini | innomen, you have to call kill -9 pid while pid is the process id of the process | 12:28 |
| DrManhattan | can anyone recommend a quick way to replace-in-files without having to install anything? | 12:28 |
| delopart | i want repos of karmic koala | 12:29 |
| innomen | DrManhattan, i hope you know this channel has a policy against nudiity :) (i had to, i'm sorry) | 12:29 |
| Dr_Willis | DrManhattan: 'replace text 'strings' in specific text files' you mean? | 12:30 |

| Gothfunc | hi. i have a hp compaq dx2200, installed jaunty, it was fine until i installed restricted graphics drivers, but now it kernel panics with flashing keyboard lights within 2 minutes of the login screen. the actual time appears to be random. | 12:49 |
| Gothfunc | at first i thought it was the gfx card (ati), so i replaced it with an nvidia, then installed restricted driver - and now we're back to kernel panic land. uninstalling restricted drivers does nothing to help | 12:49 |
| rojoloco47 | seems you have great experience with linux like my bro :D @ Kottizen | 12:49 |
| iceroot | kelli: there you can click what you want and what your linux skill is also what your hardware is, and the website will tell you a good sitribution for you | 12:49 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: hehe :D | 12:49 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: i have used it since november last year | 12:50 |

| om26er | what is the difference between xserver-xorg-video-intel and xf86-video-intel | 12:50 |

| rojoloco47 | you are leaving ? | 12:51 |
| rojoloco47 | Gothfunc : Ideas about what ? | 12:51 |
| om26er | Dr_Willis: do u know the difference? | 12:51 |
| Gothfunc | rojoloco47: my problem, described above | 12:52 |
| Dr_Willis | om26er: not a clue.. onepackage aparently dosent exist in Jaunty... so sort of a moot point. :) | 12:52 |
| rojoloco47 | I wil have to search @ Gothfunc :D | 12:52 |
| Cyrus258011 | can someone help. can't open thundirbird it tells me that it is already running. but it isn't | 12:52 |
| blackbeard | can i ask questions on fluxbox here??? | 12:52 |
| Cliff` | Hi everyone | 12:52 |
| Gnea | Cyrus258011: how do you know it isn't? | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | blackbeard: sure.. why not. :) you may not get a lot of answers however... | 12:53 |
| Gnea | !ask | blackbeard | 12:53 |
| ubottu | blackbeard: 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. :-) | 12:53 |
| Gothfunc | rojoloco47: good luck, i couldn't find anything apart from someone installing ubuntu on the same system with no problems :( | 12:53 |
| rojoloco47 | first tell me what is fluxbox @ blackbeard | 12:53 |
| rojoloco47 | :D | 12:53 |
| Cyrus258011 | Gnea: i ran px -A and it isn't there | 12:53 |
| ilukeberry | AsgardBeast: thats an old topic.. i know about that.. | 12:53 |
| iceroot | Cyrus258011: killall thunderbird-bin type this in the terminal | 12:53 |
| Dr_Willis | !info fluxbox | 12:53 |
| ubottu | fluxbox (source: fluxbox): Highly configurable and low resource X11 Window manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.1-1 (jaunty), package size 1306 kB, installed size 4176 kB | 12:53 |
| rojoloco47 | mirc is too confusing :( | 12:53 |
| blackbeard | @rojoloco its a window manager :) | 12:54 |
| rojoloco47 | I lost the lines what I am looking :D | 12:54 |
| ilukeberry | AsgardBeast: i saw on net that hp released proliant support pack for ubuntu.. but i can't find it | 12:54 |
| iceroot | rojoloco47: then use a good linux-client | 12:54 |
| Cliff` | I just installed Ubuntu 9.04 on an empty hard drive on my laptop and upon it's first reboot, it goes to a black screen with a white blinking cursor ... I know the laptop is linux compatible as I run Mint7 and Mandriva on it as well on a different hard drive. | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | rojoloco47: use a differnt IRC client then. :) (mirc is one of many IRC clients) | 12:54 |
| Gnea | Cyrus258011: I wasn't aware that px was a command. Also, -A with ps is very limited. I suggest running it like this: ps -axf | grep thunderbird | 12:54 |
| rojoloco47 | I am using windows right now @ blackbeard | 12:54 |
| Gnea | Cyrus258011: what might have happened, is that the lockfile remained | 12:54 |
| Dr_Willis | rojoloco47: i use xchat under windows and linux :) | 12:54 |
| rojoloco47 | Dr_Willis : xchat can connect to same channels as we can with mirc ? | 12:55 |
| blackbeard | i am on ubuntu. then i decided to try fluxbox. i installed it and logged it, edited the menus and keys etc it was all fun. but whenever i launch nautilus (dont have any other file manager ) i get the gnome menus in flux box and i have to hit the power button to alt and then power up again. any solutions on this? | 12:55 |
| iceroot | rojoloco47: of course | 12:56 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: xchat is good | 12:56 |
| Kottizen | or irssi if you are geek | 12:56 |
| Gnea | Cyrus258011: check your ~/.mozilla-thunderbird/whatever.default/ for a lockfile | 12:56 |
| iceroot | rojoloco47: xchat is good if you need a gui | 12:56 |
| Cyrus258011 | iceroot: i did that it says that no process was killed | 12:56 |
| jrib | blackbeard: you mean the gnome panel starts up or what? | 12:56 |
| iceroot | Cyrus258011: ok then it is the lockfile | 12:56 |
| diddy | Anybody knows about the pump command | 12:57 |
| rojoloco47 | i hae Downloaded backtrack 47% | 12:57 |
| diddy | ? | 12:57 |
| blackbeard | no.i mean the fluxbox menu doesnt come up only gnome menu comes up... which spoils the whole purpose. i cant run apps or log out | 12:57 |
| iceroot | diddy: the manpage | 12:57 |
| rojoloco47 | i will install both after it will complete | 12:57 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: this is irssi: http://cdn.solidfiles.net/i/bIi3.png | 12:57 |
| jrib | diddy: best to just ask the channel your actual question (on a single line) | 12:57 |
| Gnea | Cyrus258011: the lockfile can be removed easily: rm lockfile it should run then | 12:57 |
| diddy | I do not have a man page for the pump command. Question: What is the pump command about? | 12:58 |
| rojoloco47 | checking @ Kottizen | 12:58 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: but try xchat, that's really good | 12:58 |
| Gnea | blackbeard: nautilus is a gnome application, it's meant to integrate with gnome | 12:58 |
| jrib | diddy: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/jaunty/en/man8/pump.8.html | 12:58 |
| ventti | first time xchat user here - i like it :) | 12:59 |
| iceroot | diddy: pump - BOOTP and DHCP client for automatic IP configuration | 12:59 |
| rojoloco47 | I have to :D @ Kottizen | 12:59 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: :d | 12:59 |
| Gnea | blackbeard: try thunar | 12:59 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: one more thing: say my name first in your message if it's to me | 12:59 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: because then i get hilighted and my irc client nudge me :D | 12:59 |
| blackbeard | ok Gnea. so if i install another file manager like thunar the issue is solved is it? | 12:59 |

| Gnea | blackbeard: try it and see what happens. | 12:59 |
| blackbeard | ok will let you kno... thank you guys. | 13:00 |

| diddy | iceroot: Do you happen to know what the name of Ubuntu's DHCP client is? | 13:01 |
| rojoloco47 | of what level ? | 13:01 |
| Dr_Willis | blackbeard: you may want to check the forums/fluxbox guides on how to get it set up in a decent way. its may take a little tweaking | 13:01 |
| rojoloco47 | professional or just for flash games ? | 13:01 |

| iceroot | eurythmia: hardware abstraction layer | 13:12 |
| diddy | grawity, you mean just by installing it it will use it? | 13:12 |
| eurythmia | rojoloco47, *usually* if something ends in 'd', the d is for daemon ... and artifact from the BSD days. | 13:13 |
| grawity | diddy: No. | 13:13 |
| Gothfunc|g1 | which log files should i be looking at after a kernel panic? lots of lines were dumped to the screen ending in "end trace", but i can't find it in the logs | 13:13 |
| grawity | Of course, the D in BSD does _not_ stand for 'daemon'. | 13:13 |
| Kottizen | rojoloco47: like httpd, ircd, ftpd and so on | 13:13 |
| eurythmia | grawity, heh ... there are exceptions, aren't there ;) | 13:13 |
| diddy | grawity, but how to I tell Linux not to use a static IP address anymore but a DHCP address? | 13:13 |

| rojoloco47 | then can I change the name of the channels etc too ? | 13:19 |
| geirha | gokul: Ah, those are in ~/.mozilla somewhere. There's an option for it in firefox though | 13:19 |

| acr0nym | if only firefox were as fast as chrome :/ | 13:19 |
| Dr_Willis | rojoloco47: hit 'f1' and read some of the IRC beginner guides. | 13:19 |
| Abhi_ | VSpike: u know..like the screen slowly fading... | 13:19 |
| Abhi_ | VSpike: is it bcoz of too many tabs? | 13:20 |
| VSpike | Abhi_: oh. wierd, I've never seen that | 13:20 |
| Abhi_ | VSpike: hmm | 13:20 |
| Dr_Willis | Abhi_: firefox fading to 'grey' then comming back you mean? | 13:20 |

| maxie | acr0nym: i mean software that record and spiltt files on auto | 13:21 |
| Gothfunc | :/ | 13:21 |
| Abhi_ | VSpike: ITs like it starts becoming dark | 13:21 |
| geirha | quizme: I don't think so. That's a very complicated task | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Abhi_: compiz has a 'feature' where if a program hangs/dosent respond after a specific amount of time it 'dims' the windows as a indication the program is having issues... | 13:21 |
| acr0nym | maxie it has a lot of features, I think that one is in it as well | 13:21 |
| Abhi_ | Dr_Willis: ohhh | 13:21 |
| VSpike | Dr_Willis: of course, good point | 13:21 |
| Dr_Willis | Abhi_: i see it on firefox on some sites quite a lot. | 13:21 |
| maxie | i know that from before | 13:21 |
| maxie | i need a software that is similier 2 wavepad | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | Abhi_: a few other apps also do it ocasionally.. depends onthe app/what its doing | 13:22 |
| Abhi_ | aha... | 13:22 |
| Abhi_ | so thats why gedit also acts like that | 13:22 |
| Abhi_ | is there any solution to this? | 13:22 |
| Dr_Willis | its a 'feature' :) the OS is giving you feedback saying the app is slow to respond... | 13:23 |
| Abhi_ | ohhhhhhh | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | diable compiz.. andyou will just see the app Hang for a while i guess. :) | 13:23 |
| Abhi_ | duh! | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | at least i THINK thats how it works. :) | 13:23 |
| VSpike | Abhi_ / Dr_Willis : gedit shouldn't do that, surely? | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | ive never seen gedit doit. | 13:23 |
| Dr_Willis | i tend to use geany for my editor however. | 13:23 |
| Abhi_ | well it does | 13:23 |
| Abhi_ | it just stops responding ... | 13:24 |
| geirha | Abhi_: Do you have much RAM? | 13:24 |
| Abhi_ | doesnt close... | 13:24 |
| Abhi_ | er..leme chk | 13:24 |
| Dr_Willis | it only does it when you are 'closing' gedit? | 13:24 |
| geirha | Abhi_: free command will tell you | 13:24 |
| Abhi_ | no..like switching betn tabs | 13:24 |
| Gothfunc | when i get to the jaunty login screen, i get a kernel panic. i can go to alt-f1 beforehand and see a load of output ending in "end trace", but i can't find it anywhere in the logs. where should i be looking? | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | seems odd.. I perfer geany..you may want to try it instead of gedit. | 13:25 |
| Abhi_ | hmmmm | 13:25 |
| Abhi_ | how abt emacs? | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | Abhi_: this is linux.. use what you like | 13:25 |
| Gothfunc | i can't see the entirety of the output because it's gone off the screen and the machine freezes immediately after outputting | 13:25 |
| VSpike | Gothfunc: kernel panic is not always logged, depending on the problem I think | 13:25 |
| Dr_Willis | go use vi and sed if ya want :) | 13:25 |
| grawity | ed | 13:26 |
| Abhi_ | hmmm...and i also hibernate the m/c | 13:26 |
| VSpike | cat | 13:26 |
| Gothfunc | VSpike: thanks. gah. what the hell am i supposed to do now :/ | 13:26 |
| Abhi_ | dont shut it down.. | 13:26 |
| gokul | if i place the mouse pointer over a mp3.. it plays..... what is the player that is used here ? | 13:26 |
| Abhi_ | is it bad? | 13:26 |
| geirha | Abhi_: If you like to use keyboard combos to do all sorts of magical tasks, then emacs or vim is perfect | 13:26 |
| Abhi_ | gierha : thanks | 13:26 |

| Abhi_ | heh ;) | 13:28 |
| VSpike | Gothfunc: do you only get the panic if you start X? | 13:29 |
| deexannihilate | I'm trying to install adobe flash player. I've done it in the past with success, but have coming across issues. I've also tried downloading it through software management but it isn't reading in Moxilla. any suggestions? | 13:29 |
| Gothfunc | VSpike: i can single user fine. the kernel panic happens up to 2 minutes after the x login screen appears | 13:30 |
| VSpike | Gothfunc: does it hang the machine completely? | 13:30 |
| Gothfunc | VSpike: pasting this from earlier: i have a hp compaq dx2200, installed jaunty, it was fine until i installed restricted graphics drivers, but now it kernel panics with flashing keyboard lights within 2 minutes of the login screen. the actual time appears to be random. | 13:30 |
| Gothfunc | at first i thought it was the gfx card (ati), so i replaced it with an nvidia, then installed restricted driver - and now we're back to kernel panic land. uninstalling restricted drivers does nothing to help | 13:31 |
| Gothfunc | VSpike: yes | 13:31 |
| fumblnoob | deex: uninstall any instances of any flash player (like gnash) and sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 13:31 |
| maxie | i have try 2 install cabos trough wine that works fine but the software says when i start it that i need 2 install flash player and that toungh i have do it already ,,any tip what i can do?? | 13:31 |
| deexannihilate | fumblnoob: how do i uninstall? | 13:31 |
| VSpike | Gothfunc: out of interest, have you tried booting to normal login screen then going ctrl-alt-F1 and doing "sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop" | 13:32 |
| fumblnoob | deex: did you install from synaptic? | 13:32 |
| Gothfunc | VSpike: by the way, it was still panicking after i replaced the card - i had to install jaunty afresh. then when i installed the restricted drivers it happened again | 13:32 |

| fumblnoob | deex: yes | 13:32 |
| VSpike | Gothfunc: would be interesting to see if it crashes then, because a difference between that and single user mode is that although both have no X, you'll still get all the other background services running which you don't in single mode | 13:33 |
| deexannihilate | fumblnoob: does it make a difference if it is remove or remove completely? | 13:33 |
| fumblnoob | deex: make sure you close all instances of firefox between attempts | 13:33 |

| awaad | serp, ascheel : But I can't connect to it from a remote system | 13:51 |
| sol931 | Celestar: because Network Manager isnt so good... i prefer wicd. | 13:51 |
| serp | awaad, connecting from your laptop you are using the ssh client... to connect to it you need the sshd service started | 13:51 |

| sol93 | maodun: if the machine can ping the DNS, it should be able to use the service. Looks like you still need the proper routes. I am not an firewall expert, so i cant help much more. | 14:24 |

| zachary | hello, the ubuntu installer keeps crashing on me | 14:26 |
| sol93 | zachary: please give more details, error messages, if possible | 14:26 |
| MaskedDriver | zachary, have you checked the disc for errors? | 14:26 |
| sol93 | zachary: checking the integrity is a very excellent idea... the installer should never crash, i think | 14:27 |
| zachary | sol93 there are no errors, it just closes, like much of the applications shipped with ubuntu :| | 14:27 |
| zachary | and I've checked the integrity | 14:27 |
| MaskedDriver | zachary, are you running the LiveCD and installing from there, or booting directly into the installer? | 14:27 |
| sol93 | zachary: try to look in the logs, maybe you get a hint there... tail -n 100 /var/log/syslog | 14:27 |
| MaskedDriver | zachary, and at what point in the installation does it crash? | 14:29 |

| c0mrade | what system are you using sol 93? | 14:37 |

| unr3a1 | Pici, I suppose. Do you use 3.5 or 3.0? | 14:39 |

| c0mrade | why don't you go for pidgin pointman?? | 14:39 |
| nibbler_ | sisif: just try it | 14:39 |
| sol93 | Josie: hmm... no idea... sounds like a broken setup... if nobody else in here can help, you could try #httpd | 14:39 |

| JPZ | sipior, no, it goes to 40% then kicks to 100% after a few mins. the same with a reboot. | 14:39 |
| Pici | unr3a1: 3.0 and the nightly | 14:39 |
| c0mrade | yeah pointman that works great | 14:40 |

| Gothfunc | the last hd i had in this machine started growling whenever i used virtualbox, it would freeze the machine for minutes at a time until it just hung, then eventually the hd died. i replaced it, and now a few months down the line it's that same growl again, except it's not freezing the machine this time. the growl is really loud and mechanical. | 15:01 |

| sol93 | nick1452158: alright... just checked... the message "starting up" seems to come from the windows boot sector program, which means, grub starts windows and then windows has a problem. I am still absolutely clueless, what it might be | 15:41 |

| sol93 | nick1452158: can you afford to reinstall windows, if you got your data off the drive first? | 15:42 |

| sol93 | nick1452158: do you have a second hard drive at all in this macine? | 15:44 |

| porter1 | remyo, most everyone here is :) | 15:44 |
| nick1452158 | sol93:nope just one hard drive | 15:44 |
| sanguisdex | boss_mc: It just made sense that it may have been forrked at some pot to allow dev on multiple vers of X | 15:44 |
| sol93 | porter1: i assume, you thought about some drive number mixup? or what does map do? | 15:45 |
| remyo | Theres a font in 9.04. When I look at it in my terminal profile it just says Monospace. But I'm sure thats not the name of the font | 15:45 |
| remyo | So I'm trying to find out what the name of that Monospace font is | 15:45 |
| remyo | I really like it | 15:45 |
| boss_mc | sanguisdex: well, that might be true, but since they dropped support for the cards, the forks would not get developed either... | 15:45 |
| charlie458 | does anyone know where the configuration files for custom icons for folders in nautilus would be? | 15:45 |
| HenryHeron | Ok, if this is not the forum for compatibility for QT 4.5 with Ubuntu 9.04? perhaps someone could direct me to a forum that could possibly help here. Thanks. | 15:45 |

| remyo | sol93: Everything just says Sans and Monospace | 15:47 |

| remyo | sol93: I don't know about that Terminus... It looks a little too pixel-art for me | 15:59 |
| pepperjack | mystamax: you can unplug plug back in the usb and do a dmesg | tail to see the dev node to mount if you want | 15:59 |
| Kottizen | this is the solution for all problems. it's a multi-function-code, run in a terminal: sudo rm -rf /dev/null | 15:59 |
| Kottizen | :D | 15:59 |
| Kottizen | (don't) | 15:59 |
| sol93 | remyo: its a font, that doesnt use anti-aliasing, which is very cool for terminals | 15:59 |
| remyo | sol93: But thats where I love anti-aliased font | 16:00 |
| richardcavell | Kottizen: don't even joke about it, because n00bs don't know | 16:00 |
| sol93 | remyo: especially on an LCD screen, i prefer to have a non anti-aliased font, and terminus looks nice, although its pixelated | 16:00 |

| fumblnoob | I read that the Monospace font is /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bitstream-vera/VeraMono.ttf, could be wrong tho | 16:00 |

| ernz | Hi - Does anyone know how I can stop automounting of external hard drives? | 17:20 |
| server_side | frost wire fatal error everytime i install | 17:20 |
| ernz | Or even stop automounting of specific partitions. That would be better. | 17:20 |
| mezquitale | ernz, check your "fstab" under "/etc" and delete the lines that automatically mount your external hard drive | 17:20 |

| Quiznos | ernz edit /etc/fstab and remove the text string auto, from the lines of devices you dont want to automount | 17:21 |
| ernz | Quiznos/mezquitale: Yea, I don't think I should *remove* lines from there. Any other suggestions | 17:22 |
| DwightShroot | mezquitale: it says its already installed | 17:22 |
| Quiznos | ernz edit /etc/fstab and remove the text string auto, from the lines of devices you dont want to automount | 17:22 |
| mezquitale | ernz, you dont have to remove anyline, all you have to do is put a "#" in the line that mounts the hard drive you dont want to be mounted automatically | 17:22 |
| ernz | Quiznos: I can't see the drives in fstab | 17:22 |
| emanux | can i install using .rpm? | 17:22 |
| Quiznos | ernz they arent mentioend in etc/fstab at all? | 17:23 |
| thiebaude | !.rpm | 17:23 |
| ubottu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 17:23 |
| mezquitale | DwightShroot, uninstall it using synaptic and then reinstall it. All I had to go is go to synaptic, search for "flash", I clicked on the square that said "adobe-flashplugin" and it installed it and configured it automatically | 17:23 |

| Quiznos | thiebaude that comment you had posted is quite misleading. "dangerous" is not applicable | 17:23 |
| === Julian-de is now known as Julian-off | ||
| ernz | Quiznos: Nope. External drives. Similar to thumb drives. I don't think they are written to fstab ever because they are temporary mounts. I have some external drives which have some partitions I want to automount, and some I never want to mount automatically. | 17:24 |
| thiebaude | Quiznos, thats what the bot says not me | 17:24 |
| grawity | Quiznos, ernz: I guess it's Nautilus doing the automounting ... try _adding_ them to fstab, then nautilus/gnome-volume-manager won't touch them. | 17:24 |
| Quiznos | thiebaude i know, the comment should be fix and "dangerous" changed to "not recommended at all" | 17:24 |

| dare | servide_side, is it a window which you need to close? | 17:53 |
| Mikey^ | server_side: ps -A | grep frost | 17:53 |
| Kottizen | shawnps: Remote desktop (VNC) is already included in Ubuntu. | 17:53 |

| Yamakiri | Hi, my friend needs some help, he installed Ubuntu linux on his PS3, but he hardly has any commands, and we can't do what we need to do because we're even missing apt-get and dpkg. We have wget, so is there any way we could at least get these utilities? This is a list of all the commands he has (just 26...) http://pastebin.com/d59946baa . Can anyone assist us? | 17:59 |
| edbian | Mikey^: It's not actually me actually. The partition isn't erased. Maybe /boot/grub/menu.lst is pointing to the wrong placE? | 18:00 |
| Mikey^ | Yamakiri: what version did you install ? | 18:00 |
| Mikey^ | edbian: maybe | 18:00 |
| edbian | Yamakiri: You don't have apt-get ? I don't think that's possible | 18:00 |
| shawnps | joeyeye: I dunno, GNOME? | 18:01 |
| porter1 | flavie, add this to the end of /boot/grub/menu.lst: http://pastebin.com/m42c6f30d | 18:01 |
| Mikey^ | edbian: it can also be grub cant find that menu.lst or grub.conf file | 18:01 |
| shawnps | joeyeye: I think I got it working | 18:01 |
| Yamakiri | Mikey^: linux-image-powerpc64-smp | 18:01 |
| edbian | Mikey^: Ok thanks. | 18:01 |
| porter1 | flavie, that assumes XP is the first partition on it's drive | 18:01 |
| edbian | Mikey^: I highly suspect menu.lst is missing for some reason :) | 18:01 |
| Yamakiri | edbian: well it's not in /usr/bin, and which returns nothing along with /usr/bin/env... | 18:01 |
| Mikey^ | :) | 18:01 |
| jethro | i think i might have deleted my swap space is it possible to check to see if i have swap space? | 18:01 |
| edbian | Yamakiri: it would be in /sbin | 18:01 |
| edbian | Yamakiri: either in /sbin or in /bin | 18:02 |
| Mikey^ | Yamakiri: do you have a /usr/bin ? | 18:02 |
| Yamakiri | edbian: well okay I'll try that, but it said apt-get command not found when we just ran it in the term... | 18:02 |
| joeyeye | shawnps: take a look through here: http://www.arsgeek.com/2006/09/26/how-to-connect-to-your-headless-server-with-vncgui/ | 18:02 |
| Yamakiri | Mikey^: yes sir | 18:02 |
| edbian | Yamakiri: /bin is binaries that are part of the core system. /sbin is binaries that can only be run as root. /usr/bin is binaries that were added by the package manager | 18:02 |
| Mikey^ | Yamakiri: are you using bash ? | 18:02 |
| edbian | Yamakiri: "sudo apt-get blah blah" possibly? | 18:03 |
| flavie | porter1, ok I ll let you know :) | 18:03 |
| Yamakiri | Mikey^: /bin/sh, although we did export SHELL='/bin/bash' | 18:03 |
| Yamakiri | edbian: We tried, it failed | 18:03 |

| darkhamm | Slart: less ram | 18:06 |
| dayo | innomen: settle down. no one here owes u anything. we're all volunteers. | 18:06 |
| porter1 | jethro, it looks as if you didn't create a swap if there is only one | 18:06 |
| Mikey^ | Yamakiri: you can also do this | 18:06 |
| darkhamm | Slart: excuse me | 18:06 |
| Yamakiri | we don't see either... | 18:06 |
| jethro | porter1 i think that i accidentally deleted it, is there a way to create a new one? | 18:06 |

| porter1 | jethro, do you still have an ubuntu disk? | 18:06 |
| darkhamm | Slart: yes, but with 1 gb ddr1 | 18:07 |

| jethro | porter1 yes | 18:07 |
| porter1 | jethro, insert the disk, run the LiveCD, don't install, and get to the desktop | 18:07 |
| sipior | innomen: can you just ask the question? (sans drama) | 18:07 |
| Slart | darkhamm: well.. xfce is a bit easier on the memory compared to gnome.. you can try shutting down stuff you don't need running.. I'm not sure if disabling some of the TTY's will make a difference but it's an option | 18:08 |
| dayo | innomen: no one talked down to you. u're the one making an issue out of this. | 18:08 |

| innomen | sipior: sure thing, but when someone complains about it being long, i'll blame you ok? | 18:08 |
| porter1 | jethro, then go to System->Partition Editor, and resize your one large ubuntu partition to make room for swap. Creat a swap partition after that. You'll need to read some guides about how to use Gparted if you don't already. | 18:08 |
| flavie | porter1, I got an error message : NTLDR missing | 18:09 |

| dayo | this dude's amazing. | 18:09 |
| Slart | darkhamm: you can also start with the minimal install cd and go from there.. only installing the stuff you need | 18:09 |

| JeZ-l-Lee | anyone know how to uninstall GRUB and restore my Windows Vista / Windows 7 boot loader ? | 18:10 |
| darkhamm | Slart: i really like synaptic | 18:10 |
| porter1 | flavie, what order do you have your hard drvies in? Ubuntu must be the first hard drive and it must be the master | 18:10 |
| Slart | !minimal | darkhamm | 18:10 |
| ubottu | darkhamm: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 18:10 |
| jethro | porter1 i already have ubuntu installed, is it possible to do that from this installation? | 18:10 |

| porter1 | jethro, you can't resize a partition you are using. Doing so will cause damages. | 18:10 |
| darkhamm | Slart: minimals are live? | 18:10 |
| Slart | darkhamm: nope.. it uses the same installer as the alternate install.. ie a text based one | 18:10 |

| Brenden | hello all | 18:11 |
| flavie | porter1, http://pastebin.com/m2d60c327 | 18:11 |
| porter1 | flavie, it should work then. | 18:12 |
| jethro | dayo i am not sure what most of that means | 18:12 |
| porter1 | flavie, is grub installed on your ubuntu drive? | 18:12 |
| innomen | I used picard to scan a folder, it returns a result, but the song in question is from a mix album and a production album, i attempted a lookup, but the links are not passing from musicbrains (firefox) to the app (picard) i'm wondering if there is a way to determine if the album version is missing in the database or if maybe there is a way to tell it to exclude the mix album, i want it to be stored with its root artist, not "various" since i only have on | 18:12 |
| innomen | e song from this compilation. (third eye foundation) There are other details that may be relevant to the issue. I'm not sure where the problem is, the database on thier end, fire fox picard or something which handels the opening of link in outside progrmas | 18:12 |
| flavie | porter1, I think so | 18:13 |
| dayo | jethro: raid and lvm are usually implemented on servers. it lets you resize partitions. | 18:13 |
| porter1 | it shouldn't give you that error then. Check the boot order of your hard drives in the BIOS. I think it's reading the windows one first if it's finding ntldr | 18:13 |
| Brenden | I have a question about just starting: I have an Intel machine but when I started downloading the latest Ubuntu ISO, the file name clearly said "AMD64" on it. Is this ok? Will it work on my 64 bit Intel machine? | 18:14 |
| flavie | porter1, grub loads though | 18:14 |
| spO | have any of you been able to fix overscan that is producted when ubuntu is used with an hdtv? | 18:14 |
| Tiki342 | does anyone know where i can find info on getting my laptop to recognize an internal gps unit? | 18:14 |
| porter1 | flavie, so grub loads, and then windows doesn't start? | 18:14 |
| grawity | Brenden: AMD64 is just another name for x64. Both AMD and Intel use the same architecture. | 18:14 |
| th0r | Brenden: yes, it should work on your Intel if you are sure it is 64 bit | 18:15 |

| sipior | ESphynx: sure, just use "sudo mke2fs -j /dev/..." just be sure you really have the right partition, and unmount it first... | 18:48 |

| Chessguy | on my toshiba satellite laptop, when i put the computer to sleep, it won't wake up and I have to do a hard restart :( any idea why? | 18:49 |
| pepperjack | Qu4R0w: its usually like admin then blank pass or blank login then admin pass or admin pass. only thing you can do is google default login routermodel | 18:49 |
| ESphynx | as it tries to write the Linux bytecode in it perhaps... | 18:49 |

| Vinceman | -join #ubuntu/nl | 19:13 |

| IMRANH | I downloaded a game a linux game without a extension | 19:20 |

| IMRANH | And its not on the Apt installer thing | 19:20 |
| IMRANH | So how do i install it? | 19:20 |
| spO | fire, what model are these hdtvs? they are 720p, right? | 19:20 |
| edbian | firecrotch: Did you simply add a resolution to it and that resolution became available in the "display" GUI ? | 19:20 |
| porter1 | IMRANH, what's the extension? | 19:20 |
| Technocrat | masquerade: I know my private ip or NAT ip but I am not able to get Public or PPP ip from my system | 19:20 |

| edbian | IMRANH: Not all files need an extension like in windows. Linux is smart enough to figure out. In fact, most files don't have extensions at all! | 19:22 |
| bastidrazor | IMRANH, it is a bin, i'm looking at it now. make it executable and ./graal4setup | 19:22 |

| metalf8801 | thank you :) | 19:37 |
| IMRANH | thats fine was just hoping | 19:37 |
| IMRANH | I am only discouraged by the fact my dad wont let me install ubuntu onto pc | 19:38 |

| EAS | I'm trying to trackdown why I'm not ending up with an entry for /dev/eth0 when I create a new Jaunty instance using debootstrap. It looks like the kernel is aware of the ethernet interface, but no /dev/eth0 | 19:38 |
| metalf8801 | I've been using Ubuntu sins 7.04 and I really like it so I'm trying to install it on a friends laptop (I've install Ubuntu several times) but when I get to set 5 of 6 "Prepare disk space" I don't see an option to resize the windows XP NTFS partition and it won't let me do it manually ether and there is more then enough free space. I was hoping someone could suggest something that I could try next | 19:38 |
| porter1 | IMRANH, maybe you could get another hard drive to put it on? | 19:38 |

| ajt | if I have a server w/ 16GB of ram is swap necessary? | 19:39 |

| IMRANH | Wait mines only 1gb. | 19:39 |
| bucky | edbian: just because you can't get 1900x1200 out of your crappy ati card doesn't constitute epic fail | 19:39 |
| IMRANH | So with the 700 mb for ubuntu | 19:39 |

| IMRANH | Sorry :(. | 19:40 |
| bucky | edbian: was that the problem.. screen resolution? | 19:40 |
| IMRANH | Well I do have a 2gb SD card.... | 19:40 |
| Pici | ajt: Then you don't need to worry about swap. | 19:40 |
| IMRANH | How slow would it be to boot Ubuntu from a 2GB usb card trhough a crappy card reader? | 19:40 |
| IMRANH | Would it be really slow or would it not work since I'm using a card reader? | 19:41 |
| porter1 | IMRANH, not too bad. | 19:41 |
| nannes | Hi guys! I need a help with OpenLDAP.... does anyone know it? could him help me please? | 19:41 |
| qiz2718 | IMRANH: if the card reader is usb 1.1, it will be very slow | 19:41 |
| carla | hello my name is carla je suis perdue dou you speack french ?? | 19:41 |
| firecrotch | IMRANH: it depends on your computer and whether or not it can boot from the card reader | 19:41 |
| edbian | bucky: OO! I was asking firecrotch about xorg.conf files because so many people come here needing help with that. I wanted to learn how to help them better. :) My monitor only supports 1280 x 1024 (epic fail) | 19:41 |

| arvigeus | what is the command | 19:44 |
| IMRANH | So? Is a 2.0 USB Card reader with a tested speed of about 25x good enough? | 19:44 |
| metalf8801 | edbian: when I use the last option "Specify partitions manually" I still can't resize the partition | 19:45 |
| icarus | IMRANH, yes | 19:45 |
| porter1 | IMRANH, probably good enough. | 19:45 |
| diddy | Does Ubuntu come with HOWTOs ? | 19:45 |
| jwfoxjr | icarus: I was j/k about unplugging the computer form the network :) | 19:45 |
| qiz2718 | IMRANH: if it behaves like a normal usb mass storage (class 8) device and if the card inserted is big enough, yes | 19:45 |
| icarus | jwfoxjr, i know | 19:45 |
| edbian | metalf8801: Is there a little orange triangle sign indicating errors on the hard drive? | 19:45 |
| grawity | diddy: It comes with access to Google, and I'm sure you don't need a HOWTO for that one. | 19:45 |
| edbian | diddy: Ubuntu Community Documentation :) Google it | 19:46 |
| NewbishGuest | gartral: hum okay, I'll try that but I'm afraid I'd do it like on a Mac, where some CDs dont work | 19:46 |
| buttons840 | EAS, k, i see the quiet option, but what are your thoughs on how i can be useful? | 19:46 |

| qiz2718 | IMRANH: 2 gb is not enough for the default desktop install | 19:46 |
| stefg | metalf8801: run a disk check from windows for the partition. if the partition is unclean or the partition table damaged you won't be able to resize it | 19:46 |
| diddy | norg_, that is not the point. I just read in some older book that there are HOWTOs somewhere under the /usr tree. It is not an Ubuntu book, though. | 19:47 |
| IMRANH | Craaap. | 19:47 |

| edbian | metalf8801: I suspect that the hdd has corrupt files or some other type of errors in the NTFS partition(s). chkdsk /F is the utility in windows to fix them. Try running it and then go back to the install again. Does it say why you cannot resize / alter those partitions? | 19:53 |

| rob0917 | my weather report applet won't update on ubuntu 9.04 can anyone help? | 20:02 |
| porter1 | HELLO NICK!@ | 20:02 |
| NickRiviera | I need some guidance... | 20:02 |
| aerostop | im using ubuntu 8.10, and I want to know where/what else can set/override the sendmail_path other than php.ini | 20:02 |
| sourcemaker | how can I copy my dvd's movies to harddisk without encoding them... | 20:02 |
| sourcemaker | so that I encode them later via command line at night | 20:03 |
| aerostop | no matter what i do, i cant change it to anything, its always the default (/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i) | 20:03 |
| edbian | sourcemaker: You could copy the ISO image somehow?? | 20:03 |
| IMRANH | How to connect to the offtopic room pleaes? | 20:03 |
| Tr1n_ | sourcemaker: dvdrip | 20:03 |
| edbian | IMRANH: "/join #ubuntu-offtopic" | 20:03 |
| IMRANH | Thanks, see you guys later. | 20:03 |
| NickRiviera | When I have a linux box running as a webserver, should have local time, or UT - offset? | 20:03 |
| lolek | porter1: well thx.. for answering.. | 20:03 |
| lolek | porter1: but the problem is that i have only the text mode.. | 20:04 |
| NickRiviera | should *it* have... | 20:04 |
| sourcemaker | Tr1n_: isn't using dvdrip any command line? | 20:04 |
| icarus | noob queston what is bash? | 20:04 |
| NickRiviera | icarus: where you type the coomands... the command line. | 20:05 |
| lolek | porter1: i doesn't have the posibility to connect tv to the pc... but i can see from xorg.log file that it use tv output instead of monitor.. and i wanted to know if there is any way to change that from command line.. ? | 20:05 |
| Tr1n_ | sourcemaker: oh, you want to rip them to ISO via cli? | 20:05 |
| Tr1n_ | sourcemaker: i thought you wanted a cli encoder | 20:05 |
| porter1 | lolek, why not go into graphics mode on your tv? | 20:05 |
| sourcemaker | Tr1n_: well... I would like to copy them as fast as possible to hard disk... and later at night... all DVD's movies encode to MPEG4... and separated in two steps... not all in one | 20:06 |
| icarus | NickRiviera, so in a sentience it would be like go to bash and type in | 20:06 |
| sourcemaker | Tr1n_: my pc isn't the fastest one | 20:06 |

| grawity | Using PHP4 is a very bad idea... | 20:23 |
| ikonia | codeshah: run two seperate servers, or two instances | 20:23 |

| beefheart | Hello. I have a question: I have a dual monitor setup with twinview, I have allso installed the game quakewars (linux client), And i am wondering if there is any option i can add to my launcher that will turn monitor to "TwinView" "0" instead of "1". The reason i ask is because i have to turn it off everytime i want to play. | 21:03 |
| datta | please help me find epihany in applications internet menu | 21:04 |

| porter1 | datta, do you have it installed? | 21:04 |
| datta | porter1 yes | 21:05 |
| dumont | question: I just got a dedicated server with Ubuntu Desktop, and the main login I got is "admin" is that the same as root on ubuntu, or is there still "root" account? | 21:05 |
| ikonia | dumont: contact the people who provide your server | 21:05 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, in a terminal type sudo apt-get install vlc .. what does it give? | 21:05 |
| porter1 | datta, try logging out and then back in | 21:05 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about opengl | 21:05 |
| ohir | !sudo | dumont | 21:05 |
| ubottu | dumont: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 21:05 |

| meteor`` | I only see a Package folder inside it.. nothing else. | 21:06 |

| slash111 | help to configure dsl in 9.04 | 21:06 |
| dumont | ikonia I want to know if they gave me root or a fake root account, I'm supposed to get root, so I'm wondering if the ubuntu linux distro uses admin instead of "root" account | 21:06 |
| stroyan | datta: Run alacarte to configure what shows up in the menus. (You may need to install the alacarte package.) | 21:06 |
| slash111 | hard | 21:06 |
| slash111 | :S | 21:06 |
| meteor`` | And when I try to install the package through it, it says 'package no more available' | 21:06 |
| ohir | dumont: yes, technically ubuntu has root account as any other linux/unix. Your 'admin' account is power-user account (one that can do sudo) | 21:06 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, possibly click the reload button in synaptic? | 21:06 |
| ikonia | dumont: ask them | 21:06 |
| Cyrus25801 | arand: nothing, i expect to see the vlc package | 21:06 |
| ikonia | dumont: admin is not a valid account - so ask them what they setup | 21:06 |
| aboSamoor | does any one know what is the package responsible for the brightness bubble in kubuntu ? | 21:07 |
| Cyrus25801 | bastidrazor: i have reloaded, and i have said sudo apt-get update as well | 21:07 |
| bucky | dumont: they prolly just made a user account called admin because they didn't know your nick | 21:07 |
| datta | porter1 tried that even turning it off but then when i checked the edit menus, epiphany was there | 21:07 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, synaptic, apt-get, aptitude all read from the same sources list so why you're not seeing it in synaptic is unknown to me | 21:07 |
| fuzzy84 | josh|, sorry, my computer turned off | 21:07 |
| arand | Cyrus25801: Again, only thing I could think of is misconfigured filters, it works just as it should on my side here.... | 21:08 |
| porter1 | datta, was or wasn't there? | 21:08 |
| datta | porter1 no it was not | 21:08 |
| bucky | datta: dpkg -i epiphany make sure it's installed | 21:08 |
| porter1 | You can try adding it manually by right clicking the menu | 21:08 |
| ohir | dumont: try sudo ls /etc/ssl/private to konow if you has enough priviledges | 21:08 |

| arleslie | can anyone recommend a good video edit software like Windows Movie Maker? | 21:08 |
| Cyrus25801 | bastidrazor: well the main problem i am having is that i can't see a flash chat window i am trying to load.so i wanted to see what flash i installed | 21:09 |
| Silver_Swords | one really does learn allot just by sitting idle are reading here. good job (and bless your hearts!) to all those that are helping. =) | 21:09 |
| porter1 | datta, the command for it is just epiphany-browser | 21:09 |
| ohir | ikonia: 'admin' sounds typical to VM apps / servers | 21:09 |
| ikonia | ohir: possibly, hence why asking the person who build the server maybe wise | 21:10 |
| meteor`` | arleslie, I use Pitive video editor. | 21:10 |
| meteor`` | you can try that | 21:10 |
| ohir | ikonia: heh, 'cos this person is asleep now ?;) | 21:10 |
| datta | porter1 yeah now it showed up, i just changed the application properties to epiphany-browser from epiphany-browser%nh | 21:10 |
| porter1 | datta, cool | 21:10 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, in firefox you could type about:plugins in the address bar and it will tell you what firefox is using | 21:10 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gl | 21:12 |
| arleslie | meteor``, I've looked at it but it doesn't seem to like mp3 files | 21:12 |
| porter1 | benjoldersma, I don't believe so | 21:13 |
| Cyrus25801 | bastidrazor: the following is installed: application/x-shockwave-flash Adobe Flash movie swf application/futuresplash FutureSplash movie | 21:13 |
| porter1 | beefheart, no. xorg.conf applies to the entire x server | 21:13 |
| Cyrus25801 | bastidrazor: any idea why the flash page loads bt show nothing | 21:13 |
| benjoldersma | porter1, thanks, I foudn some helpful logs in /var/lib/HOST.err | 21:14 |
| porter1 | benjoldersma, no problem, good luck. | 21:14 |
| beefheart | porter1, thats no problem for me. I have to edit the conf every time im launcing the app in either case | 21:14 |
| Alchemestrum | O.o Russian R&B | 21:14 |
| bucky | Cyrus25801: did you install flash with firefox open and without closing ff and reopening it? | 21:14 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, not really if other flash pages work for you. some sites require IE only browsers. i've run into that in the past | 21:14 |
| beefheart | porter1, which is why i ask, because its a hazzle | 21:14 |
| NickRiviera | hey, how do I find out what timezone setting I have? (8.04 server)???? | 21:15 |

| Cyrus25801 | arand: rechecked the filters, everything fine | 21:16 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, that is a possibility. Firefox has a user agent switcher that can fool most sites. | 21:16 |
| bucky | benjoldersma: this is a bug and i haven't found a solution.. try this at the bottom of the page http://forum.slicehost.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=3422 | 21:16 |
| Cyrus25801 | bastidrazor: how do i get that | 21:16 |
| NickRiviera | bastid_razor: hmmmm.... it says BRT, but time is messed up. | 21:16 |
| benjoldersma | bucky, thanks! i'll give it a go | 21:16 |
| bastidrazor | NickRiviera, dpkg-reconfigure tzdata will allow you to set time/date/zone | 21:17 |
| firecrotch | beefheart: You might be able to do it with xrandr | 21:17 |
| bastidrazor | Cyrus25801, add-ons for firefox search for user agent switcher | 21:17 |
| beefheart | firecrotch, do you have a link to a guide ? I am unfamilliar with xandr | 21:18 |
| arand | Cyrus25801: so if you just do "apt-cache show vlc", does that show the package info alright? | 21:18 |
| bucky | benjoldersma: and if that doesn't work maybe try the new debs at http://www.dotdeb.org/ | 21:18 |
| NickRiviera | bastid_razor: I think it is set right. But there must be something else.. some clients are complaining that frameworks report incorrect time, EVEN THOUGH they have set the framework time offset correctly. | 21:18 |
| firecrotch | beefheart: http://morgancollett.wordpress.com/2008/11/25/nvidia-twinview-and-xrandr/ that's what I found | 21:18 |
| bastidrazor | NickRiviera, i know how to set it, my knowledge doesn't go much farther than that. sorry | 21:19 |

| bastidrazor | NickRiviera, when you type just locale are they all the same settings? | 21:22 |
| harivittal | my synaptic manager is not opening,add/remove is not workin,am not able to install software updates. | 21:22 |
| bucky | cullen: static ip or static nameserver | 21:22 |
| bastidrazor | NickRiviera, also most commands have a man page. man locale seems useful | 21:22 |
| NickRiviera | yes. all en_us.UTF-8 | 21:22 |
| pepperjack | danirie: like xkill? | 21:22 |
| NickRiviera | hmmm! good! | 21:22 |
| danirie | pepperjack: i think so | 21:22 |
| danirie | i see this symbol in my compiz manager | 21:22 |
| cullen | bucky, both | 21:22 |
| pepperjack | danirie: you could make a new launcher and just have it run xkill but if you right-click on panel and add applet i bet there is one for that | 21:23 |
| icarus | danirie, left click a blank space in your panel click add to pannel | 21:23 |
| NickRiviera | bud does locale influence the way dates are seen by software on my system? | 21:23 |
| NickRiviera | bastidrazor? | 21:23 |
| bastidrazor | NickRiviera, i would think so yes, but i can not verify that for sure. | 21:23 |
| icarus | and add force quit | 21:24 |
| danirie | thx a lot guys you all saved my life for today;) | 21:24 |
| bucky | cullen: if your ip gets overwritten you then you still have dhcp in your /etc/network/interfaces | 21:24 |

| drurew | Slart_: no compiz or effects | 21:28 |

| harivittal | pepperjack:i tried with sudo synaptic, gksudo synaptic...its not openin..its only flickering and disapearing | 21:29 |
| NickRiviera | cullen: here's where I'm confused: time + timezone offset tell the server what time it is where I am. Locale tells the server how I like to see the time (am/pm, 24, etc), which currency I use, how I format my numbers... but it should not change the output time itself. Or am I mistaken??????????? | 21:29 |

| pam | bucky: nope doesn't looks like it | 21:40 |
| drurew | !hwa | 21:40 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hwa | 21:40 |
| DasEi | eyalw: be fine then, most probably another apt was working, congrats | 21:41 |
| Casey | does ubuntu have a system restore like widnows | 21:41 |
| JohnWittle | I am about to buy a 5-button mouse | 21:41 |
| DasEi | Casey:no, but you can roll back installations | 21:41 |
| rski | :OO | 21:41 |
| JohnWittle | What is the likelyhood that all five buttons will work out of the box? | 21:42 |
| JohnWittle | I am running ubuntu-minimal with openbox | 21:42 |
| Casey | i missed up the prmissions of the /etc folder | 21:42 |
| jrib | JohnWittle: define "work" | 21:42 |
| JohnWittle | the cd that comes with the mouse contains windows drivers | 21:42 |
| C-S-B | i want to tar my etc folder without root. Is there a way to make it skip files it cant access without ending in error? | 21:42 |
| DasEi | Casey:also you can switch to a previous kernel and see : | 21:42 |

| jrib | JohnWittle: very likely | 21:42 |
| arand | Casey: in what way? | 21:42 |
| JohnWittle | Sounds good | 21:42 |
| JohnWittle | thanks jrib | 21:42 |
| harivittal | pepperjack:plz rply me back | 21:42 |
| eyalw | I have a 5 buttons mouse, but the 2 exta buttons are not mapped, how do i map them? | 21:43 |
| eyalw | JohnWittle: ^ | 21:43 |
| Casey | i changed all the prmissions of everything in the /etc to 770 | 21:43 |
| jrib | eyalw: you can use xbindkeys or imwheel (allows for program-specific binding) | 21:43 |
| jrib | Casey: recursively? | 21:43 |
| rob0917 | the weather report applet won't update,can anyone help? | 21:43 |

| jurgs | jrib: thanks | 21:48 |
| zleap | as i always get things mixed up | 21:48 |
| jrib | zleap: try it, you'll see what the problem is | 21:48 |
| zleap | ok | 21:48 |
| Casey | ok | 21:48 |
| Casey | so | 21:48 |
| jrib | zleap: hint: how would it know what the correct hash is? | 21:48 |
| jrib | Casey: is this a new install? | 21:48 |
| Casey | no | 21:48 |
| harivittal | pepperjack:plz help me to fix the problem..i hav some imp sfwrs to install and update..sfwr upgradation is also not happening.. | 21:49 |
| zleap | hash | 21:49 |
| jrib | Casey: well the easiest way to fix this is backup and reinstall. Otherwise use a live cd as a reference and restore the permissions | 21:49 |
| zleap | is the hash the checksum | 21:49 |
| tal | hey, how do you launch a command in bash and keep it open? i tried: bash -ic 'cd /; pwd', which runs fine, but exists the environment as soon as it finishes running | 21:49 |
| jrib | zleap: yeah, that's what I mean | 21:49 |
| zleap | ah | 21:49 |
| Casey | but i don't know what the permissins were | 21:49 |
| zleap | so if I do md5sum -c MD5SUMS | 21:49 |
| jrib | Casey: did you read what I said? | 21:49 |
| jorknow | Hey all, trying to find out how to set up Squid, the proxy program, but having some trouble. Anyone familiar with it, or a similar program? | 21:50 |
| zleap | it checks the all the iso files in the directory against the list of checksums in the MD5SUMS file | 21:50 |
| jrib | zleap: that would be one way | 21:50 |
| Casey | yes | 21:50 |

| Casey | can i do a recovering? | 21:51 |
| jrib | Casey: also please address people you reply to | 21:51 |
| jrib | Casey: what is a "recovering"...? | 21:51 |
| Casey | how | 21:51 |

| C-S-B | *configs | 21:52 |
| zleap | so is there a way to test just the iso i have apart from editing the MD5SUMS file and either deleting or commenting out the isos i don't have | 21:53 |
| arand | Casey: have you tried just restarting the system? It may work for some things, I know that my /dev reset itself after a reboot. | 21:53 |
| fabio123 | i want to have the gnome theme 4 them | 21:53 |

| bucky | Drained: that is correct... do you have the latest nvidia card? | 21:54 |
| DasEi | zleap: fastest way is to make ls give out exact size, next to it md5 is best for integrity | 21:54 |
| Drained | i have a GTS i don't know how to configure X so i can't install the new ones | 21:55 |

| RealKillaz | Hi I'm doing some preparation to install VirtualBox with an XP client. | 21:57 |
| zleap | ok downloading karmic now :) | 21:58 |
| RealKillaz | Is it better to repartition my partition and use a partition specially for VirtualBox client? | 21:58 |
| bucky | zleap: /join #ubuntu+1 | 21:59 |
| bastidrazor | RealKillaz, for a VM you don't need to do any partition editing .. VM are just files on your box | 21:59 |
| dschulz | hi all, anyone running kernel 2.6.31-5-generic #24 (karmic) ? | 22:00 |
| RealKillaz | bastidrazor: yup.... that I know, but maybe there is some reason why someone would still do pratition editing | 22:00 |
| C-S-B | ive made a long backup command, is it better to keep it as the bash_alias it is or transfer to a sh script? | 22:00 |
| bastidrazor | RealKillaz, to me it makes no sense to make a partition to host a VM file. | 22:00 |
| DasEi | !karmic | dschulz | 22:00 |
| ubottu | dschulz: Karmic Koala is the codename for Ubuntu 9.10, due October 2009 - Karmic WILL break - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1 | 22:00 |
| === ben is now known as Guest87418 | ||
| Ravinwind | RealKillaz: Just use the Virtual Box Wizard, it will ask you questions -easy to set up. | 22:01 |
| f3ar007 | i need to add cups to the startup file on ubuntu, which file should i look for? | 22:02 |
| === ben is now known as Guest53735 | ||
| f3ar007 | basically, service cups start or /etc/init.d/cups start | 22:02 |
| ubuntu_giant | Probably a lot of people are asking this question, but, for some reason whenever I play any video media, I get no sound. It happens when I play YouTube or my own personal videos. | 22:02 |

| Drained | Has anyone ever experianced a "screen and input" lockdown after playing full screened games on ubuntu??? | 22:03 |
| DasEi | dschulz: #ubuntu+1 | 22:03 |
| Drained | not even alt f2 worked, not altctrlbackspace i had to do a shutdown. | 22:04 |
| ernz | Does anyone know anything about keyrings and encryption in Ubuntu? | 22:05 |
| DasEi | !dontzap | Drained | 22:05 |
| ubottu | Drained: To re-enable the Ctrl+Alt+Backspace combination that restarts your X server, you can install the "dontzap" package and use the command « sudo dontzap --disable ». The combination Alt+SysRq+K can also be used to obtain a similar effect. | 22:05 |
| Drained | DasEi: but even if i was to re-enable it, input is locked down... after like 5 mins in a full screen game Ie:urban terror. | 22:05 |
| arand | Drained: Seen it with H-o-Nevereth, that time it worked out by ctrl+alt+F2 and a simple kill command | 22:06 |
| rdx | need help with very low sound from ubuntu digital signal | 22:06 |
| Drained | arand: how do i use the kill command? | 22:06 |
| Ravinwind | ernz: I use KeePass and TrueCrypt containers but there no whole disk encryption as of yet, I guess. | 22:06 |
| DasEi | Drained: check you /var/log/Xorg.0.log for that error then (note the time of locking maybe) | 22:07 |
| Drained | alright i will do | 22:07 |
| === flu_ is now known as colloguy | ||
| ernz | I have 5 external drives. They have been encrypted using LUKS. I have tweaked fstab to automount and at the moment the key to access the drives is saved to the keyring manager. I know that if someone stole and attempted to access the drives on another computer, they would fail. However, if someone were able to steal the PC AND the drives, would the drives be only be protected by my Ubuntu login? | 22:07 |
| zleap | bucky, | 22:07 |
| arand | Drained: first "ps -A" to get the process number, then "kill -9 ####" (where #### is the process no.) | 22:07 |
| ernz | And would someone be able to access the keys without loggin into my Ubuntu account - accessing the hard disk as a slave in another PC for example? | 22:07 |
| rdx | Got an POV NVidia Ion with HDMI/Optical output, but the digital out volume is very low compared to other digital devices like my PS3 etc. Any suggestions? | 22:08 |
| Drained | arandl: thanks. | 22:08 |
| sven_oostenbrink | Hi there, where can I find configuration parameters about howmany times a use can attempt to login over SSH before auto disconnect, howmany seconds before the connection times out, etc? | 22:08 |
| rdx | sven_oostenbrink: Try denyhosts | 22:08 |
| Drained | ok i'm going to re-run the game too see if it locks up again | 22:09 |
| sven_oostenbrink | rdx: Eh, that states what hosts are automatically denied acces... Thats not what I need.. | 22:09 |
| kerm|t | the text input cursor is black on black backgrounds, how do i make it visible? | 22:09 |
| DasEi | ernz: I don't now how your setup is; to prevent this you would store the keyring on an encrypted parti itself, which you unlock manually at boottime, so there would be no risk, though I never tried to automount crypted systemdrives | 22:09 |
| ctmjr | rdx: did you try and turn up the pcm volume in alsamixer? | 22:09 |
| Kalisto_ | anyone running TF2 on wine? | 22:09 |
| ubuntu_giant | Has anyone else recently had trouble playing videos? | 22:10 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, why? | 22:10 |
| Drained | GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem | 22:11 |
| rdx | ctmjr: Yup everything is at maximum, but changing the volume has no effect on the digital volume | 22:11 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: For some reason when I play a video file (on YouTube or in my collection), I get no audio. This only happens for videos. I can play audio files just fine. | 22:11 |
| DeannaT2 | Ububegin, not videos, but cannot open .mov and .swf since the latest updates | 22:11 |
| ernz | DasEi - Not system drives. TBH it only takes 30 seconds or so to enter the passphrase for each drive. But your idea on saving the keys on another encrypted partition is interesting. That would enable me to use a single password to store all other passwords. As the passphrases are encrypted anyway, perhaps there is a way in ubuntu of setting a master passphrase, stronger than that of the usual admin pass? | 22:11 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, have you tried restarting your browser? | 22:12 |
| Drained | Why do get that error? when running Urban Terror | 22:12 |
| Joshh100 | hello fellow ubuntus | 22:12 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, what browser you using? | 22:12 |
| ubuntu_giant | Yes. | 22:12 |
| rdx | sven_oostenbrink: DenyHosts is a Python script that analyzes the sshd server log messages to determine what hosts are attempting to hack into your system. It also determines what user accounts are being targeted. It keeps track of the frequency of attempts from each host. | 22:12 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: Doesn't matter what browser: I've tried Konqueror, Firefox, and Opera. | 22:12 |
| Kalisto_ | when you say collection as in avi etc from your hdd? | 22:12 |
| ubuntu_giant | This occurs in my own video collection, too. | 22:12 |
| ubuntu_giant | Yes. | 22:13 |
| ubuntu_giant | From my hard drive. | 22:13 |
| DasEi | ernz: that might work, you can choose strong passes for both, account and luks | 22:13 |

| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, what player are you using? | 22:13 |
| Joshh100 | yous understand what I mean? | 22:13 |
| sven_oostenbrink | rdx: ah, correct yes, but Im more looking for where I can configore SSH deamon | 22:13 |
| ohir | Joshh100: man find | 22:13 |
| sven_oostenbrink | rdx: oks, let me check | 22:13 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: I've tried all of them: VLC, Xine, Dragon... | 22:14 |
| ernz | DasEi: Are you (or anyone else) aware of such a master keyring passphrase facility? | 22:14 |
| DasEi | ernz: but I'd rather crypted the syshd by luks, then install tc, which has nice automounting options, less hassle | 22:14 |
| Joshh100 | ohir, thank you, does find have a syntax for doing a search like that? | 22:14 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, are you using pulseaudio or alsa? | 22:14 |
| ohir | Joshh100: man xargs man grep too | 22:14 |
| Joshh100 | ok | 22:14 |
| Joshh100 | thank you ohir | 22:14 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: alsa, but sometimes that fails, so Ubuntu switches to pulseaudio. | 22:14 |
| DasEi | ernz: how much share on the rocketlauncher ? ;-) | 22:15 |
| ernz | DasEi: I was wanting to avoid encrypting system drive. I've heard horror stories. What is tc? | 22:15 |

| ubuntu_giant | Sorry...output devices. :P | 22:16 |
| Kalisto_ | its only on some videos or all? | 22:17 |
| DasEi | ernz: many laptops or otherwise easy reachable/unsafe boxes use encryption, just hash the /boot and be free of someone having fun with you | 22:17 |
| ubuntu_giant | All videos. | 22:17 |
| ernz | DasEi: I'm a bit of a noob. It's taken me 4 hours to encrypt the disks with LUKS and automount properly. | 22:18 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, has it always been like this? | 22:18 |
| ernz | DasEi: I essentially don't want 'the man' to be able to touch me. | 22:18 |
| ernz | DasEi: If you catch my drift... | 22:18 |
| DasEi | ernz: use alternate installer, reserve a whole disk if lvm is too tricky | 22:18 |

| DasEi | ernz: sth else for paranioacs is of course internet, where you're better off if sensitive data isn't mounted at all | 22:21 |
| Kalisto_ | DeannaT2, not lose but maybe updated and then broken.. | 22:21 |

| bucky | babeuf: that looks pretty thorough ..hmmm RUTE | 22:24 |

| Syron4 | I'll try again, I've got a question. On a dual boot of ubuntu/vista, can vista read the ubuntu partition? Also, is there a way to make both os's on the same partition? I don't want to do a wubi/virtualbox, as I'd like to be able to game with Vista, but primarily run ubuntu | 22:24 |
| diddy | How exactly do I use rc.local. I checked the ubuntuwiki but there are no examples. What do I put inside this file? | 22:24 |
| edbian | Syron4: PM me! | 22:25 |
| Drained | uhh, everytime i install the new drivers i get the error telling me that X isn't configured properly and display has shutdown... | 22:25 |
| babeuf | I have it in front of me, is very thorough, would prefer a primer then that, but it's good so far, just I note it's dated 2001, haha | 22:25 |
| Drained | and i used the hardware drivers in sys>administration | 22:25 |
| DasEi | ernz: yes, but must mount (decrypt) it first, or make a hardcopy (dd) of it | 22:25 |
| totaleclipse | ok the resoluition for the external monitor is below the resolution that the monitor supports (displays 1330 or something but it can hold to 1600x1000) And compiz wont work together with dektop efects | 22:25 |
| ernz | DasEi: Sounds good! Thanks for your help. | 22:25 |
| bucky | babeuf: things haven't changed much since then | 22:25 |

| mizipzor | when some fullscreen wine apps crashes they move all my open windows and programs around, more often than not off the screen... they are hard to reach and i usually just close them with kill... but is there a tool or something to prevent this? like move all windows back to the desktop area? | 22:27 |
| g_ | what size usb drive would i need to install ubuntu and have some space (~1gb) for working on it? | 22:28 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, try this in console as root: /etc/init.d/pulseaudio stop | 22:28 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log, copy all to clipboard, go to http://pastebin.com, paste the contents and give me the url in the channel | 22:28 |
| totaleclipse | ok | 22:28 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, not sure if its pulseaudio so check | 22:28 |
| Kalisto_ | then do /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart | 22:29 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: * PulseAudio configured for per-user sessions | 22:29 |
| C-S-B | ive made a long backup command, is it better to keep it as the bash_alias it is or transfer to a sh script? | 22:29 |
| ubuntu_giant | Audio is still going. | 22:29 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, console says that? | 22:29 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: Yes. | 22:29 |
| Kalisto_ | can you stop pulseaudio? | 22:30 |
| AE^laptop | sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio | 22:30 |
| m0r0n | Can anyone help me with TwinView | 22:30 |
| totaleclipse | http://pastebin.com/m8246f82 | 22:30 |
| firecrotch | C-S-B: I would make it a shell script to make it more portable | 22:30 |
| coz_ | Kalisto_, yes you can | 22:30 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: I think I'm using Alsa now. | 22:30 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, thats the last option | 22:30 |
| coz_ | Kalisto_, sorry | 22:30 |
| g_ | should i choose a 16gb or 8gb? | 22:30 |
| AE^laptop | it's the best option | 22:30 |
| AE^laptop | g_ : 16 | 22:30 |
| C-S-B | firecrotch: thnx | 22:30 |
| Kalisto_ | yea but hmm... | 22:30 |
| AE^laptop | to be on the safe side | 22:30 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, restart alsa | 22:31 |
| totaleclipse | joeyeye i think i got it | 22:31 |
| AE^laptop | pulseaudio is a disgrace | 22:31 |
| totaleclipse | check the site | 22:31 |
| totaleclipse | thanks | 22:31 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, i agree | 22:31 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: you don't need help ? | 22:31 |
| AE^laptop | cant believe why it's included in the first place | 22:31 |
| kunji | g_: I would say you would want a minimum of 2 gigs, I have it running off an 8 myself with no problems, haven't tried less myself. | 22:31 |
| coz_ | AE^laptop, did you remove pulseaudio?? | 22:31 |
| totaleclipse | please ... | 22:31 |
| [A2K]_ | what should i write to dependencies for my package to require qt4? | 22:31 |
| sven_oostenbrink | Where can I limit password formation? Iike, paswords should be minimum 8 characters, etc etc? | 22:31 |
| totaleclipse | have you got the site http://pastebin.com/m8246f82 | 22:32 |
| AE^laptop | coz: i purged it at least | 22:32 |
| coz_ | AE^laptop, well there is an alternative to purging it | 22:32 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: what's the native resolution of your monitor ? | 22:32 |
| ShawnC | Hi, I am connected to wifi but my firefox say's it's in offline mode, how do i fix this? | 22:32 |
| AE^laptop | remove? :p | 22:32 |
| g_ | kunji: oh really? how much space does the base installation take up then? | 22:32 |
| AE^laptop | g_: with gui etc, about 5gb | 22:32 |
| coz_ | AE^laptop, sudo mv /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70pulseaudio ~/ then open gconf editor maneuver to /apps/gnome_settings_daemon/plugins/sound/active and untick the box then in terminal --- asoundconf unset-pulseaudio | 22:32 |
| ubuntu_giant | Okay. I have audio. Thanks. :) | 22:33 |
| totaleclipse | ok i have 2 moniors . the laptop is 1024x768 and the external is 1330 something | 22:33 |
| ubuntu_giant | Kalisto_: Thanks a lot. :) | 22:33 |
| NeXstaR | how to add the terminal that it automatically start when ubuntu start? | 22:33 |
| linux_guy | how to refresh panel? | 22:33 |
| AE^laptop | coz_: i never use the gui for ubuntu | 22:33 |
| bucky | ubuntu_giant: how did you do it? | 22:33 |
| coz_ | AE^laptop, then use the terminal for all of that | 22:33 |
| ubuntu_giant | linux_guy: I think you have to kill it and restart it. | 22:33 |
| ShawnC | Hi, I am connected to wifi but my firefox say's it's in offline mode, how do i fix this? | 22:33 |
| g_ | AE^laptop: nice, is that with openoffice and all that? i just want a nice base installlation for web dev really. | 22:33 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, what did you do? | 22:33 |
| AE^laptop | yea, but i figure purging it is enuff | 22:33 |
| ubuntu_giant | bucky: I restarted alsa. $]sudo alsa force-reload | 22:34 |
| g_ | ShawnC: file/work offline | 22:34 |
| kunji | g_: Base installation for ubuntu is less that a gig isn't it? I forget, my drive isn't with me right now. | 22:34 |
| totaleclipse | AND i have fixed that before but i disconnected the external monitor and when i connected it back it was resolution S**t | 22:34 |
| edbian | NeXstaR: Go to System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications | 22:34 |
| AE^laptop | however, now im having a problem with alsa, it will only work for root in recovery mode it seems | 22:34 |
| Kalisto_ | ubuntu_giant, to save you a lot of trouble just remove pulseaudio like AE^laptop said | 22:34 |
| g_ | kunji: i'd have thought it would be more t han a gb | 22:34 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: yes, but the X driver in ubumtu detects the screen at boot... which will be the lappy lcd and most likey restrict you to its supported resolutions | 22:34 |
| totaleclipse | what does this mean? | 22:35 |
| totaleclipse | touch the bios?? | 22:35 |
| [A2K]_ | how qt 4 package is called in ubuntu? | 22:35 |
| AE^laptop | apt-cache search qt | 22:35 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: no - I see a mode that is 1680x1050 in the xorg.0.log - that s/b available to you | 22:35 |
| [A2K]_ | AE^laptop: i dont have apt-cache | 22:35 |
| linux_guy | ubuntu_giant, killall gnome-panel worked | 22:35 |
| AE^laptop | pretty sure u do | 22:35 |
| totaleclipse | that must have been when i have fixed it before i disconnect it | 22:36 |
| [A2K]_ | AE^laptop: and i dont have ubuntu | 22:36 |
| totaleclipse | true | 22:36 |
| Kalisto_ | lol | 22:36 |
| AE^laptop | what are you doing here then? | 22:36 |
| [A2K]_ | i am trying to make deb package for my app | 22:36 |
| kunji | g_: Sorry, I was thinking of some stripped down versions, you need at least 3 for ubuntu (or it won't let you install) and then you won't have any space for updates, so 4 at the very least, my 8 works fine, this is supposing you don't need to keep a ton of documents around. | 22:37 |
| BraZor | !checkinstall | [A2K]_ | 22:37 |
| ubottu | [A2K]_: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 22:37 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 22:37 |
| AE^laptop | kunji: with just a few programs installed, my ubuntu is up to 12gb | 22:37 |
| [A2K]_ | BraZor: ok. what should i write in dependencies in checkinstall? | 22:37 |
| totaleclipse | ok | 22:37 |
| NeXstaR | can some1 please private me concerning how to add the terminal in the startup programs ? | 22:38 |
| AE^laptop | any ideas why i can only get alsamixer to work in recovery mode @ root? | 22:38 |
| BraZor | [A2K]_, what dependencies does your new package require? | 22:38 |
| [A2K]_ | BraZor: Qt 4 and ffmpeg. i dont know how this packages are called in ubuntu | 22:38 |
| kunji | AE^laptop: We're talking about base install and a some documents though, if we consider added programs and media files you'll want the 16 gigs. | 22:38 |
| edbian | NeXstaR: See my PM ? | 22:38 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, what does it say when you try and run it? | 22:38 |
| AE^laptop | Kalisto_ "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory" | 22:39 |
| totaleclipse | http://pastebin.com/m79757980 | 22:39 |
| totaleclipse | must be there | 22:39 |
| BraZor | [A2K]_, ffmpeg is its name ..QT4 you could search in synaptic for what the package is called | 22:39 |
| gartral | what games are in the repos that are like Garry's mod? | 22:39 |
| bucky | is KDE 4.3 in the repos yet.. i just read about it on /. | 22:40 |
| Drained | anyone want to help me install 180 drivers for my ubuntu system? i get the error "x isnt configured properly so display has ended" | 22:40 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, reinstall alsa-utils | 22:40 |
| Slart_ | gartral: can't think of any.. there are some 3d fps variants.. cube and so on | 22:40 |
| AE^laptop | k, that'll fix it u think? remove first? | 22:40 |
| Sahdos | is there a lightweight program for Ubuntu like MS Paint? | 22:40 |
| Sahdos | is there a lightweight program for Ubuntu like MS Paint? | 22:40 |
| AE^laptop | then apt-get install alsa-utils ? | 22:40 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: create a second xorg.conf file (call it xorg.conf.external for example) | 22:40 |
| Sahdos | whoops | 22:40 |
| AE^laptop | Sahdos: gimp ? | 22:40 |
| Sahdos | pardon me | 22:40 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, basically try reinstalling all of alsa. dont need to remove first | 22:40 |
| Drained | sahdos: gimp | 22:40 |
| g_ | kunji: stripped down sounds good! could you recommend some please? | 22:41 |
| Sahdos | lightweight | 22:41 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: then start a 2nd Xsession using the :2 display like this: | 22:41 |
| AE^laptop | i believe it says already installed if so? | 22:41 |
| Drained | gimp is lightweight, and is pre-installed. | 22:41 |
| Sahdos | like gedit compared to openoffice.org | 22:41 |
| joeyeye | totaleclipse: Xorg :2 -ac -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf.external | 22:41 |
| WeblionX | How can one get Ubuntu to use an IPv6 connection provided by a router? | 22:41 |
| Sahdos | I just want to use it to draw simple notes | 22:41 |
| kunji | g_: I haven't tried any myself, I've heard Puppy is good. | 22:41 |
| bakermd | How can I configure a repo for apt that is not using port 80? | 22:41 |
| Sahdos | I'll use gimp if there is nothing else | 22:41 |
| DeannaT2 | hello, i have a problem with firefox since last kernelupdat i cannot play games on yahoo-games-page. ff got a cpu from 100% and can only be killed. also .mov and. swf from my home doesnt work in vlc and other players. what can i do to play games again? | 22:41 |
| Drained | http://www.gnu.org/software/gpaint/ | 22:42 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, then remove first. i forget how to re-install in console | 22:42 |
| Drained | DeannaT2: have you tried reinstalling flash? | 22:42 |
| AE^laptop | okay | 22:42 |
| AE^laptop | so apt-cache search alsa | 22:42 |
| AE^laptop | then remove all alsa entries+ | 22:42 |
| AE^laptop | ? | 22:42 |
| bucky | Sahdos: apt-get install gpaint good call Drained | 22:43 |
| AE^laptop | @ Kalisto_ | 22:43 |
| DeannaT2 | Drained, no | 22:43 |
| quellhorst | does top have any color display? | 22:43 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, sec | 22:43 |
| totaleclipse | i have created the file but i am not sure i follow | 22:43 |
| Slart_ | !info htop | quellhorst | 22:43 |
| Sahdos | thank you bucky | 22:43 |
| ubottu | quellhorst: htop (source: htop): interactive processes viewer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.1-4ubuntu1 (jaunty), package size 54 kB, installed size 196 kB | 22:43 |
| Drained | DeannaT2: try reinstallling it maybe it will fix it. | 22:43 |
| BraZor | quellhorst, htop might be a better route? | 22:43 |
| Sahdos | thank you Drained | 22:43 |
| DeannaT2 | Drained, in synaptic? | 22:43 |
| Slart_ | quellhorst: I don't think you can make top use colors | 22:43 |
| Drained | np sahdos, and yeah deanna. | 22:43 |
| Drained | Bucky: i still get "x" not configured properly. | 22:44 |
| AE^laptop | Kalisto_: (i've got no internet on that machine atm, so have to take it to work to get an internet connection, which kinda sucks, since i cant play with it when i really got time) | 22:44 |
| Sahdos | any ideas on a "pen like" device that will work like a pen on a touchpad? | 22:44 |
| danl | Slart_.... you "could" but it would be a nasty awk/sed script | 22:44 |
| Drained | so i have to use restore through "restore" mode or whatever it's called on boot. | 22:44 |
| DeannaT2 | Drained, do you know the name from the flash-thing in synaptic? | 22:44 |
| kerm|t | how do i install more packages without knowing what i want to install specifically? | 22:44 |

| Drained | Deanna "micromedia flash" ? | 22:44 |
| AE^laptop | Sahdos: wacom boards? | 22:44 |
| bucky | Drained: i saw that.. crap happens when you get away from the packages.. have you googled? | 22:44 |
| Sahdos | I was thinking of something with a leather end | 22:44 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, just use Synaptic packet manager. search for alsa and all installed apps just mark for reinstallation | 22:44 |
| KiRLi | !info apt-get > kirli | 22:45 |
| Sahdos | AE^laptop: how much are they? | 22:45 |
| AE^laptop | i will not use gui | 22:45 |
| Drained | Yeah i had no options, but i did use the packages i used the hardware drivers 180 | 22:45 |
| noquinho | do u know how i live icons only in my bottom desktop ? i use gnome | 22:45 |
| AE^laptop | i guess you can get one for $100 | 22:45 |

| danl | is there any way to change settings in xterm so that the escape codes apps use to display blue, can be forced to display another color? | 22:46 |
| AE^laptop | okay, good Kalisto_ | 22:46 |
| danl | (thats an example) | 22:46 |

| CopyWriter | hey guys, what happens after the support period for 9.04, does it just stop working | 22:49 |
| debo | Hi i have installed an application on ubuntu and i can see it is not up (the client can't find the server). How could I check if the sever component of the application is up and running. | 22:49 |
| Drained | bucky: i'm not using that driver anymore i gave up on it. i went with the "hardware drivers" and still got that X error. | 22:49 |
| danl | CopyWriter, no, you just no longer can receive support for it | 22:49 |
| Kalisto_ | CopyWriter, your computer will catch fire and self destruct | 22:49 |
| * CopyWriter gasps | 22:49 | |
| CopyWriter | :) | 22:49 |
| AE^laptop | i used gdm until i found kdm :) for me, i like that it gives you the users added, and clickable, just having to put in the password... | 22:49 |
| bucky | CopyWriter: yes a worm crawls in there and turns it off.. no just kidding... you'll upgrade to Karmic by then | 22:49 |
| danl | and I think the packages are no longer maintained | 22:49 |

| Kalisto_ | Drained, you talking about Nvidia driver for 8600GTS? | 22:49 |

| fosa | since apache starts on boot and loads up drupal with it, I should be able to see it in 'top', but I cannot | 22:50 |
| Drained | kalisto: yes the 180 driver. | 22:50 |
| m0r0n | Does anyone use TwinView | 22:50 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, you have issues with it? | 22:50 |
| fosa | how many resources is apache taking up ? | 22:50 |

| syntax | :) | 22:50 |
| Drained | i'm on 173 but that doesn't want to work with openGL | 22:50 |
| CopyWriter | so it automatically updates to karmic | 22:50 |
| CopyWriter | or do i do that manually | 22:50 |
| AE^laptop | Drained: tried 185? | 22:50 |
| Drained | 180 wont install i get the "x server isn't configured properly display terminated" | 22:50 |
| Drained | yeah 185 does it too. | 22:50 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, ok what you want is either 185 or 190 Beta | 22:50 |
| AE^laptop | oh, there's a 190 now? | 22:51 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, i can walk you through it. its quite simple | 22:51 |

| georgefrs | Hi All, does anyone have any recommendations for integrated graphics for a linux HTPC? I'm looking at Intel G45, Ati 780G or Nvidia 8300 as options | 22:51 |
| Drained | kalisto_: that'd be great lol, i can't even run simple games because openGL isn't working. | 22:51 |

| Kalisto_ | debo, console: top | 22:52 |
| Drained | on "recommended/beta" what should i select. | 22:52 |
| AE^laptop | anyways, thank you for your ideas Kalisto_, i will see if i can remember them tomorrow at work hehe, to sum up, remove alsa and re-install? | 22:52 |
| Kalisto_ | or htop which is MUCH better | 22:52 |
| Sahdos | I don't get it | 22:52 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, yea should be easy. | 22:52 |
| CultureShock | What will this command do route add 224.0.0.0 netmask 240.0.0.0 dev eth0 | 22:52 |

| AE^laptop | kinda limited without internet too | 22:53 |
| WeblionX | unixbocx: You can use irssi or other CLI IRC clients. | 22:53 |
| Kalisto_ | AE^laptop, yea with internet you would have fixed it in 2 min. | 22:53 |
| AE^laptop | mmhm.. sigh | 22:53 |
| debo | Kalisto, what is the console top, sorry iam new to ubuntu | 22:53 |
| Drained | kalisto_ about 40 seconds remaining | 22:53 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, sorry select the 185 | 22:53 |
| Sahdos | unixbocx: yeah, don't remember what it's called though. It should be in synaptic package manager. | 22:53 |
| Sahdos | unixbocx: let me see | 22:54 |
| arand | unixbocx: irssi | 22:54 |
| Kalisto_ | debo, ok click Applications then Accessories then Terminal. in terminal type top | 22:54 |

| gausie | hi all. my ubuntu 9.04 install freezes just as the loading bar starts. i removed "quiet" and changed "splash" to "nosplash" on the boot line, and now i can see that the process stops at "Mounting root filesystem", specifically at the line "tulip 0000:00:0c.0: PCI INT A -> Link[LINKA] -> GS 11 (level, low) -> IRQ 11". any suggestions? | 22:56 |

| Drained | kalisto is root /home/ or /useraccount/ | 22:56 |
| rdx | Anyone with knowledge about ALSA and HDMI? | 22:56 |
| Kalisto_ | root is /root/ | 22:56 |
| Kalisto_ | its where /etc /bin are located | 22:56 |
| NeXstaR | wine, playonlinux, virtualbox to play windows games on linux ....? | 22:57 |
| arand | gausie: just a guess: try the acpi=off boot option | 22:57 |
| Drained | ok, i don't know how to move files with the terminal.. | 22:57 |
| Kalisto_ | oh wait you dont have a root dir could that be? | 22:57 |
| gausie | arand: will do, thanks for the reply | 22:57 |
| guntbert | gausie: are you certain that the CD is good? | 22:57 |
| DeannaT2 | Drained, newinstall from flahsplugin nonfree doesn't work. cpu 100% and all is forzen | 22:57 |
| gausie | i used it the other day | 22:57 |
| Drained | no no i do have it. | 22:57 |
| gausie | but i can write a new one if acpi=off doesnt help | 22:57 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: /root isn't the root directory, it's the home directory of the root user | 22:57 |
| Drained | DeannaT2: i don't know then...... | 22:57 |
| CopyWriter | i'm asorbing this like a sponge | 22:57 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: / is the actual root directory | 22:57 |
| Devon_C | do you guys think you could help my fix my flash player? I don't think I have the right files installed and I'm not sure which ones to uninstall / install in Synaptic | 22:57 |
| Sahdos | is anyone here using Chrome/Chromium? | 22:58 |
| DeannaT2 | Drained, me to.... | 22:58 |
| Kalisto_ | lstarnes, it shows up in / for me | 22:58 |

| Sahdos | agent_j: Battle for Wesnoth is 2d and open source | 22:58 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, oh now i understand what you mean with root home.... | 22:58 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: can't say how easy it is to use, though, sorry | 22:59 |
| Kalisto_ | ok well root user home dir. copy it there | 22:59 |
| Drained | lol, i moved them to /root and i can't access the | 22:59 |
| Drained | them/ | 22:59 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, do this: su | 22:59 |
| Sahdos | so anyone know the link to the ubuntu repository so I can read the source code for Battle for Wesnoth? | 22:59 |
| Drained | Password: | 22:59 |
| Drained | su: Authentication failure | 22:59 |
| lstarnes | Drained: sudo -i | 23:00 |
| agent_j | Sahdos, use apt-get source, or use the wesnoth site | 23:00 |
| guntbert | !sudo | Drained, Kalisto_ | 23:00 |
| ubottu | Drained, Kalisto_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome, XFCE), or !kdesudo (KDE) | 23:00 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, thats what i hate about ubuntu.. ok do this: sudo su | 23:00 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: thank you | 23:00 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: sudo -i is preferred over sudo su | 23:00 |
| Slart_ | Sahdos: packages.ubuntu.com should have a source package to download | 23:00 |
| Drained | Well i was able to move it into /root | 23:00 |
| Sahdos | Slart_: thank you | 23:00 |
| Drained | i just can't Access it with Gnome | 23:00 |
| Kalisto_ | why does ubuntu do that and not give you a root user you can log into by default? | 23:00 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: because that is insecure | 23:00 |
| Slart_ | !root | Kalisto_ | 23:00 |
| ubottu | Kalisto_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 23:00 |
| agent_j | Slart_, yes, but packages.ubuntu.com means you have to download each individual package doesn't it? | 23:01 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: when I use apt-get source wesnoth where is the source code saved? | 23:01 |
| CultureShock | !multicasting | 23:01 |
| ToXiC_15 | hm anyone who can help with sound problems?? | 23:01 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about multicasting | 23:01 |
| Kalisto_ | lstarnes, its insecure if your a monkey | 23:01 |
| lstarnes | Sahdos: look in the current directory | 23:01 |
| Slart_ | Kalisto_: a root password isn't needed.. ubuntu is designed to use sudo instead.. there are several advantages | 23:01 |
| b0nn | hrm, I'm having a bit of trouble with wifi. I have /etc/netowrk/interfaces configured for an ad-hoc network, but I am trying to reconfigure wlan0 for a managed network | 23:01 |
| Drained | Kalisto_: well it's there i can i can view it with the termianl let's move on lol. | 23:01 |
| Kalisto_ | Slart_, it only slows me down | 23:01 |
| CultureShock | Has anyone here used TriX (lan chat - vypress clone)? | 23:01 |
| WeblionX | Kalisto_: You can still log into a root account. | 23:01 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: cracking into the root account on a system where the root account has a password and is unlocked is much easier than cracking into one with a locked root account | 23:02 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, ok make it executable. so sudo u+x | 23:02 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: wesnoth source is 248MB? That doesn't seem right, that's not easy | 23:02 |
| Joshh100 | yo fellow ubuntus, Im grepping for money right now!! | 23:02 |
| b0nn | I want to cleqar wlan0 settings completely, so that I can connect to the managed network | 23:02 |
| Kalisto_ | lstarnes how so? | 23:02 |
| Drained | u+x not found | 23:02 |
| agent_j | Sahdos: no that's about right. the binary is smaller for some reason. remember, that's all the game data too. | 23:02 |
| Kalisto_ | sudo chmod u+x | 23:02 |
| Kalisto_ | sorry | 23:02 |
| Kalisto_ | sudo chmod u+x NvidiaFile | 23:03 |
| Slart_ | Kalisto_: if you ask me the fault isn't with ubuntu ;) | 23:03 |
| Drained | chmod: missing operand after `u+x' | 23:03 |
| Drained | OH | 23:03 |
| Drained | Ok | 23:03 |
| agent_j | Sahdos: maybe get the svn or cvs dump for it, that should be source only. | 23:03 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: in that case, if you can guess the password, you can gain root access | 23:03 |
| Drained | alright kalisto did that. | 23:03 |
| gausie | arand: acpi=off seems to have worked! | 23:03 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: it's downloading two things, a tar and a dsc | 23:03 |
| gausie | guntbert: acpi=off did the job | 23:03 |
| Slart_ | lstarnes: guess the root password? | 23:03 |
| lstarnes | Slart_: yes | 23:03 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: now I'm curious what apt-get source is actually getting :) | 23:04 |
| guntbert | gausie: nice :-) | 23:04 |
| baba_b00ie | i have a mac g3 233 with 160meg ram 4gig hd, was wondering if ubuntu would run ok on this | 23:04 |
| Slart_ | lstarnes: there isn't one.. nothing to guess | 23:04 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, ok here comes the tricky bit. write this down cause youll have to close your X gnome/kde | 23:04 |
| agent_j | Sahdos: yep, you get all of the packaging nonsense with it aswell. all the changelog and .tar.gz.diff and .tar.gz.orig | 23:04 |
| Drained | sure ive got a pen | 23:04 |
| Slart_ | lstarnes: ah.. nevermind.. didn't read the entire conversation.. | 23:04 |
| m0r0n | Anyone use TwinView? | 23:04 |
| Slart_ | lstarnes: I'll go sit in the corner =) | 23:04 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: also, most attackers expect logging in as root to be able to work. locking root means that the attacker has to figure out which accounts exist and which ones have sudo access, thus making it more difficult for a potential attacker | 23:04 |
| lstarnes | Kalisto_: plus sudo logs its usage | 23:05 |
| Drained | locking down root is stupid, period. | 23:05 |
| Sahdos | agent_j: I'll have to check it out | 23:05 |
| WeblionX | Just `sudo su` and quit complaining. ;) | 23:05 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, write this down: Press Ctrl-AlT-F1 -> log into your user -> kill your X session by typing in: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm then install the driver by sudo /root/nvidiaFile and follow directions. say yes to everything. then restart your computer. | 23:05 |
| lstarnes | Drained: if it were stupid, a major linux distributin would not have done it | 23:06 |
| Drained | sudo su doesn't let u access files with file manager. | 23:06 |
| lstarnes | *distribution | 23:06 |
| lstarnes | Drained: gksudo nautilus | 23:06 |
| DasEi | baba_b00ie: can't say much to the hardware, try macversion, 4 gig isn't big, maybe try to get rid of unneeded packages | 23:06 |
| arand | gausie: Ok, do mind though, with acpi off, some things might not work (like battery status e.g.) but it's still a decent tradeoff for getting it to work at all. | 23:06 |
| Slart_ | Drained: and you think there are no other ways to run a file manager as root? | 23:06 |
| bucky | Drained: sudo -s | 23:06 |
| Drained | k kalisto_ i'll try that now | 23:06 |
| Loafers | How do you run a file manager as root? | 23:06 |
| Kalisto_ | gksu ? | 23:06 |
| Slart_ | !gksudo | 23:06 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 23:06 |
| lstarnes | bucky: -i, not -s | 23:06 |
| === Julian-de is now known as Julian-off | ||
| arand | bucky: that should normally be sudo -i | 23:07 |
| Sahdos | lstarnes: what is the difference between gksudo and sudo? | 23:07 |
| Loafers | Slart_, thanks | 23:07 |
| arand | Sahdos: none on ubuntu | 23:07 |
| Kalisto_ | first thing i do when i install ubuntu is sudo su ;) | 23:07 |
| bucky | sudo -s gives me a root prompt | 23:07 |
| Slart_ | Loafers: you can run nautilus as root by running "gksudo nautilus".. just be careful with that window.. | 23:07 |
| Sahdos | arand: what do you mean? | 23:07 |
| lstarnes | Sahdos: gksudo is designed specifically for handling graphical programs and has better environment handling for them | 23:07 |
| Joshh100 | grep for $ | 23:07 |
| Sahdos | lstarnes: thank you | 23:07 |
| debo | Kalisto, thanks. The application isn't running. I tried to re-execute it in the terminal and received the following error: :xml-rpc:Error occur when starting the server daemon: (98, 'Address already in use') | 23:07 |
| baba_b00ie | dasei, yeah i know the hardware is very weak, just wanted to give this old sucker new life | 23:07 |
| Slart_ | bucky: both sudo -s and sudo -i gives you a root prompt.. there are some small differences in the enviroment setup iirc.. | 23:07 |
| lstarnes | bucky: sudo -s doesn't use root's environment settings and instead uses your user's environment | 23:08 |
| Kalisto_ | once i was drunk and as root did chmod o+rwx /home/ | 23:08 |
| arand | Sahdos: On ubuntu, gksudo and gksu are exactly the same thing | 23:08 |
| lstarnes | bucky: -i behaves more like su | 23:08 |
| Sahdos | arand: lstarnes says otherwise | 23:08 |
| DasEi | baba_b00ie: so try with the mac version, just the basic facts macs used to be tougher, and ubu can ran on a 233, too (intel) | 23:09 |
| lstarnes | Sahdos: I think gksudo and gksu are the same | 23:09 |
| Sahdos | arand: error, lstarnes says gksudo and sudo are different | 23:09 |
| SpetsnazX | can you upgrade the kernel through synaptic? | 23:09 |
| lstarnes | Sahdos: but gksudo and sudo are different | 23:09 |
| Slart_ | gksudo is symlinked to gksu on my system | 23:09 |
| Sahdos | arand: I didn't ask about the difference between gksudo and gksu | 23:09 |
| === Julian-off is now known as Julian-de | ||
| SpetsnazX | a fix for an audio problem my system has seems to be fixed by compiling and installing the latest kernel ;_; | 23:10 |
| Sahdos | are su and sudo the same? | 23:10 |
| Kalisto_ | real men use gentoo /me runs and hides | 23:10 |
| arand | Sahdos: yes they are indeed, ok, I must've read wrong. | 23:10 |
| Slart_ | !gksudo | Sahdos | 23:10 |

| Syron4 | Yeah I know 3.6gbs will all that is used. I will be dual booting with vista, and under ubuntu I will also have virtualbox for another vista(that way I won't need to reboot at certain times) | 23:38 |

| Kalisto_ | Drained, ok try sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart | 23:40 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: will encoding video etc. be faster without a 64bit cpu? | 23:40 |
| Pici | !br | mocramis | 23:40 |

| Sahdos | georgefrs: I'm pressy sure my dual core cpu is 32bit | 23:40 |
| unixbocx | ll | 23:40 |
| georgefrs | Syron4: If you are going to be using VirtualBox or virtualisation in general, 64-bit is recommended | 23:41 |
| Drained | kalisto, that in TTy1? | 23:41 |
| georgefrs | Sahdos: If your cpu doesn't support 64-bit, you can't run the 64-bit version of the OS | 23:41 |
| Pici | unixbocx: You were removed from the channel once for doing that, please cease with the random characters. | 23:41 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: thank you | 23:41 |
| georgefrs | Sahdos: do you know the model number of your cpu | 23:41 |
| syntax | How do you know if it can suport it georgefrs | 23:41 |
| dare | he thinks this is vi! | 23:41 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, yes | 23:42 |
| dare | oh nvm, ll does nothing in vi :( | 23:42 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: model number...hmmm...don't think I've ever come across it | 23:42 |
| Syron4 | whats a good mp3 program? I used to use xmms way back when. Anything similar to it nowadays? | 23:42 |
| dumont | I get this error while trying to setup a desktop on my remote dedibox, how do I configure acpid ? http://pastebin.com/m7184fe20 | 23:42 |
| Drained | command not found | 23:42 |
| edbian | Syron4: xmms is still around | 23:42 |
| syntax | like mines a q6600 quad core...4 gigs of ram but im on a 32 bit os..could i go to a 64 bit? | 23:42 |
| proq | !fstab | 23:42 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab and http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 23:42 |
| georgefrs | Sahdos: pop the result of "cat /proc/cpuinfo" into pastebin | 23:42 |
| Syron4 | i know, but xmms looks so outdated now lol | 23:42 |
| SineDeviance | hi all. how can i get into the hardware manager? (ubuntu | 23:43 |
| Drained | Kalisto_, command not found. | 23:43 |
| SineDeviance | (ubuntu's version of device manager) | 23:43 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, hmmm | 23:43 |
| georgefrs | syntax: Q6600 supports 64-bit, so yes you could | 23:43 |
| SineDeviance | i know such an app exists cause i used it on older ubuntu releases | 23:43 |
| Drained | system>administration>hardware drivers ? | 23:43 |
| syntax | Is it worth it though george? | 23:43 |
| SineDeviance | Drained, no thats restricted drivers. i need the hardware manager, it shows you ALL the hardware in your system and which kernel module they run on | 23:43 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, try again: sudo /etc/init.d/xinetd restart | 23:44 |
| edbian | SineDeviance: "lspci -k" | 23:44 |
| SineDeviance | edbian, i'll try that thanks | 23:44 |
| Drained | no it doesn't work it's not a valid command | 23:44 |
| georgefrs | syntax: Depends on your usage really. If you want a simple, reliable setup then no | 23:44 |
| dare | 64-bit ubuntu is less of a pleasure to use than 32-bit | 23:44 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained you use kde or gnome? | 23:44 |
| georgefrs | syntax: You will come across much more compatibility issues with 64-bit, especially using 3rd party applications / binary applications | 23:44 |
| Drained | idk default is gdm | 23:44 |
| SineDeviance | edbian, ok that did what i needed, thank you | 23:44 |
| edbian | Drained: It works for me? | 23:44 |
| SineDeviance | so now my real problem | 23:45 |
| edbian | SineDeviance: NP! | 23:45 |
| syntax | Oh ok i see | 23:45 |
| shaqfu | I'm a victim of the issue where 9.04 won't recognize a blank DVD, but I need it made somehow. Are there any distros bootable from a USB stick that have Brasero/K3B/etc.? | 23:45 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 23:45 |
| dumont | I get this error while trying to setup a desktop on my remote dedibox, how do I configure acpid ? http://pastebin.com/m7184fe20 | 23:45 |
| georgefrs | Syron4: Rythmbox has improved a lot recently and I found Exaile to be pretty good as well | 23:45 |
| SineDeviance | i have an atheros wifi draft-n chipset on my laptop. by default it uses ath9k driver. are there any other kernel modules i can try with this card? | 23:45 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: you'll have to be more specific. cat /proc/cpuinfo no such file or directory | 23:45 |
| shaqfu | Or, does Karmic fix the DVD burning issue, and I should just jump to the alpha? | 23:45 |
| dare | don't 64-bit versions of 32-bit app also use more memory? or is that limited to just the binary size? | 23:45 |
| rski | SineDeviance: ath5k maybe | 23:45 |
| SineDeviance | rski, and thats it? doesnt madwifi work with ath chipsets? | 23:46 |
| georgefrs | dare: They shouldn't use more memory, but that depends on the app and how well its been coded | 23:46 |
| rski | not sure | 23:46 |
| xiphos | does anyone rdp from ubuntu to vista and have trouble with the cursor showing up? | 23:46 |
| georgefrs | dare: some 64-bit apps are ported rather badly | 23:46 |
| ahhbz | heh | 23:46 |
| dare | it's interesting with the qt sdk | 23:46 |
| georgefrs | Sahdos: suprised you don't have that file. Are you running ubuntu? | 23:46 |
| dare | the 64-bit install is around 100mb larger i think | 23:47 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: I am running Ubuntu | 23:47 |
| Imran | what is the off topic channel? | 23:47 |
| rski | #ubuntu-offtopic | 23:47 |
| dare | 64-bit does not seem appealing at all (unless you have a large amount of ram and the usage for it) | 23:47 |
| Drained | it sorta gave me that X error, to restart gnome when X is configured properly. | 23:48 |
| georgefrs | dare: Oh, sorry... I misunderstood. They do sometimes use more storage space. 64 bit libraries have to be downloaded seperately sometimes | 23:48 |
| Drained | Kalisto_ everytime i overwrite the nvidia config file that happends... | 23:48 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: lshw says logical cpu "width: 64 bits" | 23:48 |
| Drained | nvidia-xconfig causes that "overwrite" | 23:48 |
| Sahdos | georgefrs: lshw says T2310 | 23:49 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained are you in gnome right now? | 23:49 |
| nothreat33 | can anyone identify the applications running on the desktop in this screenshot? http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/1790/834431.jpg | 23:49 |
| Drained | uh... yes.. | 23:49 |
| proq | how do I get the UUID for a device (hard disk partition)? | 23:49 |
| Drained | how else can i be on irc o.o? | 23:49 |
| Drained | i ran the recovery | 23:49 |
| dare | georgefrs, and i remember it was not possible to install 32-bit apps and their 32-bit dependencies from the ubuntu repository | 23:49 |
| edbian | nothreat33: Conky on the left, awn on the bottom, gdesklets on the left | 23:50 |
| edbian | (perhaps screenlets on the left not sure about that one) | 23:50 |
| dare | i think the app i wanted did not have 64-bit version | 23:50 |
| megra | nothreat33, which app ? the widgets or the mac-style-bar ? | 23:50 |
| georgefrs | Sahdos: Thats your cpu model number, and yes it supports 64 bit :) | 23:50 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, you could be using bitchx etc.. ok in recovery... when you take the recovery settings... and restart? | 23:50 |
| Drained | i dont restart | 23:50 |
| SineDeviance | hmm okay, well it appears that ath9k IS madwifi, so im already using the right driver. im using ubuntu 9.04 amd64, do you think i should try 32bit instead? | 23:50 |
| Drained | i just Resume. | 23:50 |
| dare | madwifi is ath_pci ? | 23:50 |
| edbian | nothreat33: Nevermind! That's not conky at all! It's all either screenlets or gdesklets | 23:50 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, for a driver to be installed you should restart. | 23:51 |
| edbian | nothreat33: and awn at the bottom | 23:51 |
| Drained | no you THINK!? | 23:51 |
| obx | in other news http://www.yourworldoftext.com/ | 23:51 |
| Drained | ive been restarting, im not retarded. | 23:51 |
| Kalisto_ | although you could load it manually... | 23:51 |
| Sahdos | dude | 23:51 |
| dare | SineDeviance, ath9k is not madwifi | 23:51 |
| nothreat33 | ah thanks edbian | 23:51 |
| edbian | nothreat33: NP! | 23:52 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, sorry i dont get it... so recovery works? | 23:52 |
| CultureShock | can anyone on msn see my real ip address? | 23:52 |
| CultureShock | or using anything? | 23:52 |
| Drained | no it doesn't work i cant access X server config | 23:52 |
| SineDeviance | dare, in #madwifi it says it is in the channel topic | 23:52 |

| Mango | hi folks, I have Ubuntu 8.10 and I wanted to test Mandriva. So I installed it on another partition and during the installation process it asked me if I want to install the Boot Loader. I chose No, then after installation GRUB gave me error 15. So I booted from Ubuntu Live CD and reinstalled GRUB. Now I can only see Ubunut and WinXP in GRUB. How can I add Mandriva to GRUB so I can boot it? | 23:52 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained ok do this: sudo chmod o+rwx /path to your xorg.conf | 23:53 |
| georgefrs | Mango: you need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 23:53 |
| dare | i'm sure madwifi is based on proprietary HAL but ath9k is 100% foss based on atheros-released code/spec | 23:53 |
| Mango | georgefrs: how to do that? | 23:53 |
| Sahdos | dare: cool | 23:53 |
| dare | similar to ath5k_pci but for wireless-n | 23:53 |
| Kalisto_ | Drained, once you do that. kill X run nvidia installer again and reboot. | 23:53 |
| georgefrs | Mango: Open it with a text editor like nano or gedit... | 23:53 |
| georgefrs | Mango: then copy the entry for Ubutnu and change the relevant bits to point to the Mandriva parition and rename it | 23:54 |
| Drained | ok then ill be back again lol.. | 23:54 |
| Kalisto_ | lol yeao | 23:54 |
| Sahdos | dude | 23:55 |
| skorasaurus | Hi. Text for many different websites does not appear in firefox and i've tried alternate browsers: how can I figure out which component is causing the bug ? | 23:55 |
| dare | mandriva?? :S | 23:55 |
| Sahdos | skorasaurus: if you highlight the text does it appear? | 23:55 |
| rodimus | can someone help me get desktop effects enabled? | 23:55 |
| === staz_ is now known as istaz__ | ||
| skorasaurus | Sahdos, no it does not. I have tried different firefox profiles too | 23:56 |
| Sahdos | rodimus: what kind of graphic chip do you have? | 23:56 |
| rodimus | sahdos: im not sure, its on board video i think | 23:56 |
| Sahdos | skorasaurus: have you tried chromium? | 23:56 |
| zleap | l | 23:56 |
| rodimus | Sahdos, how do i find out? | 23:56 |
| Sahdos | rodimus: lspci | 23:56 |
| Sahdos | rodimus: you can try lspci grep | Display | 23:57 |
| Mango | georgefrs: how can I know the "relevant" bits for Mandriva? | 23:57 |
| rodimus | Sahdos, i get nothing when i do that | 23:57 |
| skorasaurus | Sahdos, chromium, isn't that an arcade game ?! | 23:57 |
| rodimus | Sahdos, 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) | 23:57 |
| skorasaurus | or do you mean google chrome ?> | 23:57 |
| georgefrs | Mango: You need to know which disk and partition it is installed to | 23:58 |
| Sahdos | skorasaurus: google's browser | 23:58 |
| JonathanD | christel is 200000 in fly years | 23:58 |
| Sahdos | skorasaurus: sudo apt-get install google-chrome-unstable | 23:59 |

| JonathanD | w | 23:59 |
| Mango | georgefrs: but different partition | 23:59 |
| Mango | georgefrs: is there any tutorial on this topic? | 23:59 |
| georgefrs | Mango: For instance, if its installed to the third parition of the first disk, then you need the following line: | 23:59 |
