Dr_Williskomentar1e_listy:  ive seen Openoffice run on 128mb machines.. with swap space..  abiword is like a 3 mb download.00:13

ubottuUse hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING!

kendrickhello00:14
bankixDark_Wolf: Hm? What do you mean with "set a host name or doman"?00:14
Dr_Williskomentar1e_listy:  .doc is a vastly varied format..  depending on who.what made themn.. abiword may or may not format/keep the frmating right.00:15
kendricki've tried asking in #kubuntu, but no answer so far... this is more of an APT issue than anything, though...00:15
Dr_Williskomentar1e_listy:  for best .doc compat. You may have to use Openoffice00:15
Crshmanhow do I reinstall the default pulseaudio configuration files at /etc/pulseaudio ?00:15
Dark_WolfHmm00:15
b3rz3rk3rkomentar1e_listy, i think you will struggle to find a full office suite other than Open Office... if you dont need a full suite and just want to do text edits, look into abiword or the basic text editor even. For file compatibility.. just use Open Office (it isnt that heavy)00:15

Dark_WolfI like the old interface better :P00:17
Dark_Wolfnetwork-admin, right?:00:17
b3rz3rk3rkomentar1e_listy, if you are just text editing, then the regular app should be fine.. if you want to use spreadsheets or whatever, maybe try Koffice (KDE apps are knwon to be a bit lighter than Gnome ones)00:17

kentUnfortunately I have to be the first to let you know that in this case your ideas on upgrading your systems by simply changing the processors just won't work.01:09
kentFirst of all a Pentium 4 (or Centrino, which is the mobile version) literally will not fit into any of the systems you mention. All CPUs are made in specific form factors to fit into different sockets. Most Pentium 4 processors were made for Socket 478 or 478B sockets, which mean they have 478 pins on a chip roughly an inch and a quarter square. The high number of pins allow more signals and data to be passed simultaneously to the motherboard, one way the sp01:09
kenteed of the CPU operations were increased. Pentium III and older Celerons were mainly socket 370 chips on a chip almost an inch and three quarters square. The lesser number of pins were aligned in six concentric rows with a blank central square. Pentium II and even older Celerons used Socket 7 and any of a half dozen other schemes and were often put on daughtercards to make them somewhat interchangeable. It would be like trying to put a square peg in a round01:09

Dr_Willisnifty:  what command?  You can set the gnome vnc feature (called vino) to auto start when you login.01:34
Dr_WillisCrell:  purge/reinstall removes/reinstlls the SYSTEM CONFIGS.. not the users configs.01:34
CrellHm.01:34
niftydr_willis: i am looking at the shared desktop and it says connect by sending this command, send command by email or something01:34

CrellSo I need to purge my user's KMail configs manually.01:34
Dr_Willisnifty:  yes..  you basically tell the vncclient the proper ip/port to connect to.01:35
niftydr_willis: how do I know which port?01:35

treadLoafers:  I'm a bit of a newb, but I believe that in Ubuntu 9.04 (and maybe 8.10 too), that's handled by the compiz.real library, and that Ubuntu ships with that feature enabled.  At least, it works on mine and I never manually switched it on.03:18

bill_how do u use thr torrent thing??03:36
treadHilikus: They most likely wouldn't be all on one drive.  If part of your LVM fails, some data loss will occur.  You should be backing up the data in your LVM to a separate physical (and logical) location.03:36

mdggogeta: thanks again! o/03:40
treadHilikus: if I'm understanding you correctly, then yes.  If you're using an LVM without redundancy (e.g., no RAID0,5,6, etc.), then think of that entire logical volume (which may consist of multiple drives/partitions) as if it were one disk.  If you're backing up files that live in that LVM volume, then the backups should live somewhere else.03:40

MT-Hilikus: it's fine to do. you just need to research it first03:42
treadHilikus: There's no disadvantage to that.  That's part of what LVM is for.  But that has nothing to do with backing up your data.03:42

Hilikusnothing has happened yet. i'm just trying to decide if i should install LVM on my server to be able to better control my partitions. right now i have a physical drive for backups that's only 20GB and it's almost full so i was thinking maybe having a LVM that uses that hd and part of another hd but i think now that backing up to LVM is not very reliable since if one of the two crashes you're screwed03:44
Hilikusyou don't even know where your stuff is physically03:45

MT-Hilikus: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAID http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LVM03:47

DaZmaslen: it means exactly what it says03:48
HilikusMT- got it. so why am i not right saying that you should just not backup to LVM. that (thinking of it as raid0) only confirms it03:48
oldude67maslen, either means you made a typo or that file doesn not exist03:49
maslenDaZ: That's very nice, I could also translate it, my question is how can I fix it03:49
treadHilikus: so yes, you're increasing the risk of failure by spreading it over multiple drives.. but since it's a backup, you'll only face data loss if your backup fails at the same time as your original copy.03:49

Ghotiatt0: yes, if you want anyone on the computer to be able to run the script, which is moderately dangerous04:52
sol93zimbres: basically you just have to make your software use several threads/processes, and the system would distribute them. There is nothing hyper-special about multiprocessing04:52

kad_Baconizer, it give me linux-headers of old kernel ! i install new one05:15
gogetawwwbryan: or you can add it as a login in pidgin05:15
alves_rnbuddies i have a question too05:16
_tunafishctmjr: i have done that but freewins isnt listed there05:16
alves_rnin fact are two :)05:16
Ghotiw_a_n_d: might there be an identd6 or similar ipv6-specific ident dæmon?05:16
_tunafishGhoti: alright, thank you. checking it out now05:16
Ghoti!ask | alves_rn05:16
ubottualves_rn: 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. :-)05:16
Ghoti_tunafish: good luck!05:16
Stralyticdoes kernel version 2.6.30 require something funny in hardy to be upgraded?05:18
theatrookay, put on a clown nose05:18
deexannihilategogeta: i tried to register earlier and it told me my email was invalid?05:18
rwwStralytic: considering that the normal kernel version for Hardy is 2.6.24... yes, I imagine it would ;)05:19
bucky  /msg NickServ REGISTER bar foo@bar.com05:20
kad_Baconizer, when i compile new kernel i didn't do make dep ! does this make effect on what's happen to me ?05:20
buckySyntax: REGISTER <password> <email-address>05:20
deexannihilategogetaL tried again and it worked05:20
Stralyticrww: got anything more constructive than that?05:20
Baconizerkad_: try it and see ... since you got the other packages installed, have you tried compiling again?05:20
bucky  /msg NickServ HELP register05:21
rwwStralytic: I'm not sure what your question is. Do you /have/ 2.6.30 and want to upgrade it, or, have 2.6.24 and want to upgrade to 2.6.30?05:21
kad_Baconizer, compiling again the kernel ?05:21
Ghostrockhi guys05:21
Baconizerkad_: the driver05:21
alves_rni've installed hardy on a notebook, without any boot options. when i reboot it, i choose the option on grub and the boot stops. dont load the image, just stops on a black screen. anyone?05:21
Ghostrockhello guys i have a problem with smoothwall xpress who can give me little help plz05:22
Baconizerkad_: in your terminal, type sudo apt-get install kernel-package linux-headers build-essential ctags libv4l05:22
kad_Baconizer, i can't it say : *** Warning: make dep is unnecessary now.05:22
Stralyticrww: i've built a 2.6.30 kernel and it won't boot, i've got raid+lvm and when 2.6.30 boots it can't find the root fs05:22
DasEialves_rn: o further error message ?05:22
Baconizerkad_: then it is unnecessary ;)05:22
DasEino*05:22
alves_rn<DasEi> nothing05:22
kad_Baconizer, it won't install since when i do this , it install the old kernel i got kernel 2.6.30 installed05:22
Baconizerkad_: run what I gave you, then try to compile the module again05:22
DasEialves_rn: tired recovery mode ?05:22
Baconizerkad_: you compiled the new kernel and everything, right?05:22
Baconizerkad_: then, IIRC you should have linux-headers and kernel-package, sort of05:23
kad_Baconizer, ya05:23
Baconizerkad_: just install ctags and libv4l from the repo05:23
Baconizerkad_: and try to compile again05:23
alves_rn<DasEi> just on cd boot an error  "DMI BIOS year==0"05:23
kad_Baconizer, installed them now :)05:24
alves_rn<DasEi> but boot continue without errors05:24
Baconizerok05:24
losherStralytic: I'll ask the obvious question: you included the raid & lvm modules right?05:24
DasEialves_rn: that's not too worse, can you boot safe mode ?05:24
alves_rn<DasEi> just on cd boot an error05:24
Stralyticlosher: yes, of course05:24
alves_rn<DasEi> no05:24
kad_Baconizer,  E: Couldn't find package libv4l05:24
losherStralytic: just checking. Start googling my friend...05:24
alves_rn<DasEi> dont load the linux image05:24
cajunI forget the terminology but I want to be able to just type novacom in order to run the program regardless of what directory I'm in.05:24
DasEialves_rn: are you on live cd now ?05:25
rwwStralytic: Ah. Well, like I said, 2.6.24 is the latest supported kernel version for Hardy. If you're trying to use 2.6.30 for some reason, you're on your own. The kernel packages at http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ may work a little better, since they're packaged by Ubuntu people (but are still highly unofficial) =/05:25
alves_rn<DasEi> hd led dont blink05:25
Ghoticajun: so you want 'novacom' to be on the path?05:25
Baconizerkad_: libv4l-005:25
alves_rn<DasEi> yes05:25
Baconizerkad_: And libv4l-dev would be good too05:25
kad_Baconizer,  libv4l-0 is already the newest version.05:25
Baconizerkad_: then it's installed, move on05:25
cajunsudo novacom is ok.  it's in opt/palm/novacom  i guess so.  still learning linux05:25
MindVirus1How do I prompt a user for string of text using the command line?05:26
DasEialves_rn: open a terminal ..05:26
MindVirus1I remember there's some command for that.05:26
alves_rn<DasEi> ok05:26
GhotiMindVirus1: read variablename05:26
sol93Schizoid: still can't find anything hintful on the web05:26
cajunGhoti: how do I do that?05:26
DasEialves_rn: sudo apt-get install pastebinit05:26
Baconizerkad_: just so you know, if there isn't a package available, but you know it's in there, run apt-cache search <package>05:26
MindVirus1Ghoti: there is some GUI version.05:26
MindVirus1Ghoti: starts with the letter "e".05:27
DasEialves_rn: sudo fdisk -l | pastebinit05:27
kad_Baconizer, from what do u think problem? new kernel not good?05:27
kerm|thow do i assign a keystroke to focus a certain window?05:27
Ghoticajun: if you know the location of 'novacom', you could 'sudo ln -s /path/to/novacom /bin/novacom'05:27
Cavisty^gerberis efnet down for all of u05:27
DasEialves_rn: give resulting url here05:27
Baconizerkad_: you installed the packages and -dev packages, right?05:27
kad_Baconizer,  or maybe coz i left the old kernel installed also ?05:27
Baconizerkad_: post the outpout of make again05:27
kad_Baconizer, installed them before05:28
kad_Baconizer, ok05:28
Schizoidsol93: my bios has no option to turn off cores etc05:28
GhotiMindVirus1: not on my install; e<tab><tab> shows all commands starting with 'e', and nothing looks like a GUI prompt to read into an environment variable.05:28
MindVirus1Ghoti: exactly; it doesn't look like it.05:29
kad_Baconizer,  http://pastebin.com/mc94daa705:29
sol93Schizoid: too bad... would have been a silly mistake anyways. I couldn't find anything interesting on the web. *thinking*05:29
MindVirus1Ghoti: really, in essence, I don't believe it reads into a variable; I think it just prints it out.05:29
Baconizerkad_: well, that got a lot farther :D05:29
GhotiMindVirus1: what precisely are you trying to do?05:29
MindVirus1Which is useful for `e<blah> --prompt` type of things.05:29
Baconizerkad_: have you tried asking in #microdia?05:29
GhotiMindVirus1: oh- echo!05:29
MindVirus1Ghoti: a little script to remove a kernel version completely.05:29
kad_Baconizer, nah this is another source05:29
losherMindVirus1: read -p <prompt> <variablename>  ?05:29
Schizoidsol93: oh well, thank you for trying to help05:29
MindVirus1Ghoti: no, that's not it.05:29
MindVirus1No, no.05:30
MindVirus1It's a GUI thing.05:30
codeshahguys, how do I check all the groups I can use chgrp to?05:30
sol93Schizoid: from what I saw on the forums, there is a _tiny_ chance, that a BIOS update might help.05:30
Schizoidsol93: hopefully some one on the forums will have an idea05:30
Baconizerkad_: I don't really know :<05:30
MindVirus1I saw it in Gedit.05:30
GhotiMindVirus1: sorry, I see 'script', I think 'terminal', not 'gui'05:30
Baconizerkad_: if no one else here can help you, you can always try the forums05:30
DasEialves_rn: ?05:30
MindVirus1Ghoti: losher: I'll show you when I Find it.05:30
MindVirus1*find05:30
alves_rn<DasEi> the note are not connected05:30
kad_Baconizer, i don't care for the source microdia, all i need to know is my new kernel working ok? or it's not good  ? :)05:30
sol93Schizoid: did you say, another Linux works with all cores?05:30
alves_rn<DasEi> im on desktop05:30
losherMindVirus1: you want something that will throw up a window & ask a question?05:31
Baconizerkad_: it's not compiling, apparently05:31
Schizoidsol93: yes05:31
MindVirus1Ghoti: losher: sorry, it was zenity.05:31
MindVirus1Found it.05:31
GhotiMindVirus1: are you sure it's not some function of another programming/scripting language?05:31
MindVirus1:)05:31
Baconizerkad_: the only way to make sure is to compile it, and try it out05:31
alves_rnbut i have 3 partitions: sda1=>swap, sda2=>/, sda3=>/home05:31
DasEialves_rn: any way to access/network it ?05:31
Baconizerkad_: I can't really tell you from here. If you've compiled your own kernel, you should know what all you're doing. ;)05:31
kad_Baconizer, thinking to go back to old kernel and check :P the 2 files05:32
sol93Schizoid: Too strange, since we shouldnt need additional software besides the kernel-smp-"nonmodule"05:32
movelahi, are there any open office for sale templates? automobile... thanks!05:32
krammer_evening all, why is it when I want to start firefox is shows up in the little box of the top left of my screen ?05:32
jpa--after i dual-boot ubuntu on a win-xp laptop... is there a way I can revert the installation?  like just make my computer forget i installed ubuntu on it.. give the partition storage space back to the fat32 drive, and just... leave ubuntu in the past05:32
Schizoidsol93: yeah, i still have my gentoo kernels, but there is no way they are going to work with ubuntu05:32
sol93Schizoid: if you're very desperate, you could try compiling a new kernel05:33
jpa--it seems that if i install ubuntu on this particular laptop, the fan stops working even when i boot into winxp05:33
alves_rn<DasEi> installation is ok, but after reboot dont init using hd05:33
jpa--and my computer is getting so hot it burns my fingers05:33
jpa--so this is sorta like Speed05:33
krammer_jpa--, delete the partition05:33
usr13jpa--: Yes, of course.05:33
Ghotijpa--: use gparted to grow windows to fill the hard drive, boot your windows CD into the recovery console, and use fixmbr to wipe GRUB05:33
GhotiNow I feel dirty ;)05:34
kad_Baconizer, think got this : http://www.nabble.com/em8300-with-linux-2.6.29---2.6.30-rc-td23528584.html having same problem lol seems from the kernel05:34
DasEialves_rn: from this state this is quite a crystal ball, so you can now only check the installer medium; else boot it live and chroot into hd to get access to log files/fixing05:34
sol93Schizoid: I give up. I wish you quick success!05:34
Schizoidsol93: thanks duder05:34
losherjpa--: could be coincidence. Maybe your fan has just failed. Moving part technology you know...05:34
losherGhoti: :-)05:34
krammer_evening all, why is it when I want to start firefox is shows up in the little box of the top left of my screen ?but firefox has a blank screen05:34
Ghotilosher:  :)05:34
jpa--losher: it happened the last time i installed ubuntu as well.. like 2 years ago05:35
sol93Schizoid: my dictionary won't show a verb "to dude", would it? lol05:35
alves_rn<DasEi> i've tried all_generic_ide on grub options because its a sis mobo05:35
jpa--last time, i took the easy (annoying) way out and just did a factory wipe of my laptop05:35
jpa--its one of those toshibia proprietary ones that have a toshiba reecovery cd05:35
jpa--no idea if it even has fixmbr05:35
losherjpa--: I do seem to recall some mention of fans running *slower* under ubuntu for certain laptops, but nothing that persisted into a windows boot...05:35
usr13krammer_: Does it say about:blank in the address bar?05:36
krammer_no05:36
losherjpa--: off to #windows with you...05:36
usr13krammer_: So the whole window is blank?05:36
krammer_usr13, what i do is grab the little box and resize it and nothing is in there05:36
jpa--losher: either way, im sticking by my hypothesis.. im not here to debate the merit of that, but just find the correct process to take to get rid of ubuntu for now05:36
DasEialves_rn: you got to view lappis hd-syslog-file05:36
krammer_yes05:36
jopkehi there05:37
krammer_usr13, the box is this big [   ]05:37
Hilikusapart from /home is there any other dir that would be a good idea to keep separate from / ?05:37
DasEialves_rn: sure medium was good ? md5sum- and cdself test done ?05:37
losherjpa--: I wasn't being awkward. What Ghoti said was what you need. For where to get fixmbr, #windows is the place to ask...05:37
GhotiHilikus: /boot perhaps?05:37
HilikusGhoti: why?05:38
Hilikuslosher: fixmbr is in the windows installation cd05:38
usr13krammer_: Can't you make it bigger?05:38
GhotiHilikus: if you have /boot on its own partition, and unmount it after booting, it's hard to break your system in a way that prevents it from booting05:38
DasEialves_rn: does the lappi support boot from usb ?05:38
jpa--Hilikus: like i said, my laptop came with a proprietary toshiba rescue disc that contains windows on it05:39
krammer_usr13, yes but there isnt anything in there, this is weird05:39
jpa--but not sure if it actually has fixmbr05:39
usr13krammer_: ... by clicking on the corner and  drag it out bigger?05:39
jpa--it brings up it's own splash screen and UI05:39
krammer_yes05:39
Hilikusjpa--: just do a search on the disk05:39

sol93kerm|t: of course, the "workspace switcher" can do it :)06:02
BrendenXno, too much junk in "extras" I think06:02
vruizsileni, Opera, Konquor, Google Chrome, Seamonkey, Dillo, midori, Flock06:02
sol93kerm|t: Rotate cube has a default key binding for turning the cube: ctrl-alt-left/right06:03
vruizsileni, There are others but I can't think of them06:03
sileniwow06:03
silenithey have chrome for linux now ?06:03
silenihow is it ?06:03
vruizsileni, What exactly do you want in a browser?06:03
vruizsileni, not exactly06:03
silenijust internet browsing , and tabs preferably06:03
HighLordObsihmm...no sound...no internet...nice06:04
usr13vruiz: it's "konqueror"06:04
sol93gogeta: thanks, i will have a look at that adapter06:04
usr13sileni: There's also lynx06:04
sol93lynx rofl06:04
sileniusr13: that doesn't have tabbing though06:04
sileni:\06:04
sol93sileni: in this case, you could use "screen"06:05
usr13sileni: No, but sure is a nice browser06:05
vruizsileni, Chrome has a dev build right now which is not very stable with flash. Other than that the browser works great. I have tested this. Flash works about 60% of the time. When it crashes it will only crash that tab (which you can reload right back) want link?06:05
silenisol93: really...06:05
sol93sileni: if you want a lighter weight browser than FF, give Epiphany Browser a try.06:05
usr13sileni: You might like konqueror or opera  They both have tabs.06:05
silenivruiz: no thanks06:06
silenisol93: yea06:06
BrendenXyeah I can't get Flash to go, it says "i386" is the wrong architecture06:06
vruizsileni, you sure? imo it's useful to have around06:06
usr13sileni: But firefox is the most feature rich.  It's the one I use most of the time.06:06
vruizsileni, fast06:07
silenivruiz: ephiphany works great :D06:07
silenivruiz: thank you though, i will take the link just in case06:07
Loafers!screensaver06:07
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about screensaver06:07
vruizsileni, lol. You should try chrome though it's pretty nice even in dev. Really Really fast although I don't think webkit is fully implemented yet06:08
BrendenXhuh, after three reboots Flash is working... weird...06:08
vruizsileni, ok let me get link06:08
kerm|tsol93: can i assign keys to specific windows/desktops that way?  not rotating through, thats just like alt-tab06:08
kerm|ti know how to do it in kde, maybe i should use that06:09
sol93kerm|t: you can "switch to cube face #n" (rotate cube) or "Switch to viewport #n" (viewport switcher)06:10

vruizsileni, http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/eula_dev.html?dl=unstable_i386_deb06:12
sol93Hallux: no idea really, but a blind guess: you might have to create the config, there could be an example somewhere.06:12

HalluxWell, there's a config file06:12

mojo_hello everyone, my computer speaker is broken and I want to record a song play on my computer using GNOME Voice Recorder, is there a way to redirect the sound play on your PC to the microphone line? Please help06:16
Halluxsol93, that how-to explanation doesn't mention moving the config file06:16
HalluxIt seems to assume that Privoxy has no problems with where the config file is located originally upon install06:16
spOdoes svn replace cvs?06:16
sol93Hallux: read lines 35+ of that example config. does that help?06:17
HalluxI mean, I guess I could just copy a config file to where Privoxy seems to think it should be, but it's just kind of disconcerting to think that it doesn't know where its own files are06:17
silenivruiz: doesn't support my architecture06:17

badoosol93: any ideas on permanence?06:22
HalluxThanks for the help, btw, sol9306:22
sol93badoo: either you click it in the GUI or you tweak the init scripts (look for sysvinit tutorials) - there is even a command line tool for configuring init scripts.06:22

BrendenXusing a GUI interface then, D2N?06:26
sol93MHz128: 2GB ram should be plenty for simple use of the system. You should get "out of memory" messages, if your RAM is consumed. I think its relatively safe to turn of swap.06:26

Vosshallux, In case the admin is a dumbass :)06:29
w_a_n_dHow do I change the command that /etc/init.d/oidentd is executing06:29
HalluxI see, Voss.  But why bother having an admin account at all, then?06:30
qpoi_When "installing" Ubuntu within Windows, is it a completely independent operating system when booted to?06:30
sol93Hallux: on linux, the root account is not a user account like "admin", but its a user "context" reserved for the system. Although you can make it possible to log in as "root", it is strongly recommended not to do so. If youre tired of typing the password all the time, install pamusb and use your flashdisk as key.06:30
Vosshallux, because linux standard has it06:30
BrendenXD2N: something like find | xargs grep -l <phrase> will work, I think.06:30
randall_For some reason I have to manually mount my swap partition every time I boot. Is there a way to automate this?06:31
BrendenXif you don't mind command line, that is.06:31

DasEiqpoi_: u speak of wubi ?06:31
D2NBrendenX: alright, I'll try it, thanks06:31
sol93Hallux: http://harald.ist.org/self-pc/tricks/linux/howto/pam-usb.html06:31
qpoi_DasEi: yes, of sorts -- whatever is included by default on the 9.04 disc06:31
BrendenXif you need to search a specific file tree, add it after the "find", like find /var | xargs grep -l <phrase>06:32
qpoi_DasEi: it comes up as an autorun application and offers the installation, and I'd assume that means it's based on wubi06:32
BrendenXthat'll search /var for the phrase06:32
DasEiqpoi_: there are 3 ways; wubi, as a vm or dualboot , in the line of 'independent' os06:32

NerosKebert nope... ive only seen issues like that when using the older 7 series of desktops when they tried to use vga and dvi simultaneously06:49
sol93qpoi_: oh, vista... sorry, anything above XP doesnt exist in my personal reality... i don't know, how it is in vista. Should be the same, i think. You could just remove any executeable from the drive using a live cd.06:49
grendal_primeya but innomen the distributor does not want us to go down.  (they alsow would like us to have to pay them for another unscratched disk) so my thinking is they will error on the best side for them.06:50
=== D2N is now known as D3N
KebertNeros: Very strange issue.  I've been googling for weeks and it seems like I'm the only one.  :(06:50
=== D3N is now known as D2N
sol93qpoi_: remove _every_ i meant06:50
KebertNeros thanks anyway.06:50
qpoi_Neros: you said that accessing files on the local partition is impossible, also true of the windows kernel? no windows files are in use?06:50
_tunafishhey all. i downloaded a copmiz plugin using the "git clone" command and when i try doing "make && make install" nothing happens. there are 2 files and a folder. a src folder CMakeList.txt and throw.xml.in file anyone know howto install??06:50
qpoi_sol93: yes, i had hoped to do that -- but i'm doing this from hundreds of miles away, and the man i'm helping has no transportation and no extra blank media06:50
=== sleepy_cat is now known as c_nick
innomengrendal_prime, everyone will, building a business is about risk vs reward *shrugs*06:51
DasEiKebert : which card is it ?06:51
qpoi_sol93: i had him acquire one blank disc initially, and he cannot boot it for some reason (bad media, or lousy dvd reader)06:51
Nerosqpoi_ say you have drive C: in windows. you install wubi to that drive. ANY file on C: (including the windows kernel that is installed in C:\Windows) is inaccessible06:51
sol93qpoi_: does he need to keep the software from the infected drive? Another issue would be worms (vbscript viruses, in docs)06:51
KebertDasEi: Quadro NVS 140M on a Thinkpad T6106:51
qpoi_Neros: excellent06:51
KebertDasEi: AMD64 build06:51
qpoi_sol93: I plan on destroying any software I find on the drive as soon as we get him in a safe environment06:51
grendal_primebut..hey...if they say "thats legal" them i can always sleep a little better at night..and if i get a letter, oh well we stop not a big deal..the investment is nothing more than a newer burner that supports lightscribe and some disks (about 100 bucks)06:51
DasEiKebert : sorry, no experience with that type06:51
sol93qpoi_: problems getting his new install online?06:52
KebertDasEi: thanks anyway06:52
innomengrendal_prime exactly06:52
Nerosqpoi_ if the files are that inportant tell him to go buy a thumb drive or get a blank disk and boot in al ive environment06:52
qpoi_Neros: he has no transportation is the issue06:52
grendal_primeMy customers will really like the idea.06:52
innomengrendal_prime you have plausible deniability06:52
DasEiKebert : best apart from google get the 180 back06:52
qpoi_Neros: we made one ubuntu disc, but alas, it did not work06:52
innomengrendal_prime,  you are clearly not trying to infiringe06:52
innomeninfringe*06:52
grendal_primeunscratched disks to take home...vs....spending the night trying to skip past bad spots.06:53
innomenthats all the court will care about06:53
sol93qpoi_: you said, he had a freshly installed sys. Windows?06:53
Nerosqpoi_ is the windows in question vista or xp?06:53
qpoi_sol93: yes, he recovered via the angel partition that laptops have06:53
JamesCharles/mode $me +x06:53
qpoi_Neros: vista, hence why I'm so scared of the inability to completely disable autorun06:53
richardcavellAm I right in thinking that in order to set up an Ubuntu computer as a wired router, one needs to have two Ethernet ports?06:54
innomengrendal_prime: keep in mind the cost of blanks + labor, ususally just mailing in dead ones for copies is better, as per blockbuster06:54
sol93qpoi_: i'd try to remote login to the machine, let the user connect the infected drive and hope, the sys wont get infected again. He could wipe the sys off again.06:54
DasEirichard: yes, common setup06:54
grendal_primewell ace the windows first...then mount the ntfs drive from an ubuntu/debian distro, use ntfs3g driver so its writeable, then use clam-antivirus to clean the files....WHAMMO DONE DEAL!!06:54
Nerosqpoi_ one option is to resize the current C: drive about 6gb less and install wubi... then go into the package manager and install the live package (to make the wubi install like a livecd) and install ubuntu to the newly created freespace06:55
grendal_primeSomeone here has done this before right?06:55

Nerosqpoi_ that would result in a normal ubuntu installation that allows for normal accessing06:56
KebertDasEi: Seems like I'm the only one with this problem, unfortunately.06:57
glitchdanyone know about pluggin a laptop via ISDN cable into a desktop computer to get internet on the desktop?06:57
Nerosbut if there are two drives... install wubi. shutdown add in the infected drive then boot into ubuntu. scan the infected drive and you're  donw06:57
qpoi_Neros: ah yes, of course, but just by being linux (without wine), it will be immune to whatever garbage that drive has on it06:57
grendal_primeinnomen.  ya i dont know that i can mail these in.  Besides i much like the lightscribe look to the disks..otherwise we have to perm-marker our name onto the disks..sometimes its not easy to do.06:57
KebertHas anyone out there had problems upgrading to the 185 or 190 series NVIDIA proprietary drivers?06:57
fakeerThis is such a frequent problem on 9.04 Dell Vostro that sometimes I feel like giving up: "Your session only lasted less than 10 seconds.  If you have not logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation problem or that you may be out of diskspace.  Try logging in with one of the failsafe sessions to see if you can fix this problem". A pop-up window comes up with this message and when clicked "ok" or "closed" it just restarts the OS an06:58
DasEiKebert: err, did I give you the right path >> /var/log/Xorg.0.log ?06:58
Nerosqpoi_ most likely yes. it would be an oddity indeed for a windows virus to be carrying a linux rootkit as well... and stranger still yet for that rootkit to infect you06:58
qpoi_sol93: appreciate that link, i did the registry fix as well as the WU patch, but given the risk involved i'll play it safe06:58
KebertDasEi: that's a different path.  Let me check it out.06:58
grendal_primewe usually get about 2 copies of movies unless they are huge blockbuster movies..."gran torino " we have 10 of...if it takes us an hour for each title.  (we would make an iso of one of them and just burn 10 copys of it and stuff the originals into a softbag for long term(untill selling time) storage)06:59
sol93qpoi_: alright... i know your pain. I hope, you will survive it without permanent brain damage.06:59
cattellaris there a way to really shape a gnome menu the way i want, both menus provided by ubuntu are horribly bloated06:59
qpoi_Neros: yes, if it had a linux rootkit, it would still have to be executed -- and even then, it would be isolated to that environment06:59
sol93cattellar: right click the menu and edit them06:59
Nerosqpoi_ exactly07:00
DasEirichard: you would need a switch at one of the router's nic, then have to configure the machines not to have same domain and some more stuff, like make them irresponsible to ping and stuff07:00
cattellarsol93, i know, but there are things i cant erase from it07:00
sol93cattellar: specifically?07:00
innomengrendal_prime, sounds good to me man, i dont think anyone will care, the big thing these days is streaming07:00
richardcavellDasEi: irresponsive you mean07:00
qpoi_sol93: i can handle situations like this with ease when i've got physical access to a machine, but when you're dealing with an already frustrated non-technical end-user from several states over, there's just no room for mistakes07:00
cattellarabout gnome .... connect to server ...about ubuntu ...network ...search for files .... etc07:00
qpoi_sol93: esp. when said person has no transportation07:00
cattellarsol93,07:00
sol93qpoi_: as i said, i know this kind of situation. Good hunting!07:00
innomenqpoi_: god aint that the truth, i quit the tech support business over just that type of thing.07:01
codename47hi can somone help me or send me in the right direction07:01
richardcavellDasEi: So I can configure the router not to route packets from one of the daughter computers to one of the others easily enough?07:01
DasEirichard: yes, but this has to be done not on the router but on the single machines, they can otherwise see each other through the switch07:01
spOwhat is a better video driver for mplayer ,  xv or gl2 ?  Also, how come it doesn't list my ati video driver that i isntalled?07:01
cattellari want some sort of mintMenu, but without the horridness and bloatness07:01
grendal_primeinnomen the other thing is..(and this is  a bit grey area of course,) is that i could see us buying 5 copies of something and it turning out to be that we need 10...ok we run off 10 for the night and pick up 5 more in the morning.)  If i was to get audited that morning i would be screwed..but i just cant see anyone being that anal about that sort of stuff.07:01
klownIs it possible to run both ventrilo, and teamspeak out of the same usb headset?07:01
KebertDasEi:  I'm looking through the file now.  I recall the error said something about "freetype" and "glx" modules not found, if that helps.07:02
AscavasaionMy Ubuntu installation runs wonderfully but the moment I open Nicotine and it is open for a few minutes the computer freezes.  Mouse clicks die, and the keyboard becomes totally unresponsive.  any ideas?07:02
richardcavellDasEi: Yeah, well I don't want them seeing each other through the switch.  Is the only way I can handle this to put each of them on its own NIC?07:02
qpoi_sol93, Neros, DasEi: appreciate the time and effort, will go ahead and do the wubi route07:02
pfruanhi,any know how can i use a script to auto install mysql-server07:02
richardcavellDasEi: Or buy a switch that has the ability to forbid packets from going from one machine to another07:02
pfruani dont wanna set root pwd by manual07:02
qpoi_innomen: ahah, yes, it's a tricky task indeed07:02
innomengrendal_prime, that would be illegal definitely, you could argue it like anything else but i think you'd ahve to pay someone07:03
DasEiqpoi_: good effort, but online is more complete then clamav07:03
sol93cattellar: i dont know mint menu. what do you want to remove?07:03
innomengrendal_prime, better off just telling them to come back later07:03
cattellarsol93, about gnome .... connect to server ...about ubuntu ...network ...search for files .... etc07:03
DasEirichardcavell: sure , if you can afford a managed switch07:03
pfruanhi,all busy now?07:03
qpoi_DasEi: i'm flat out nuking any executable code that I find07:03
grendal_primeinnomen: ya i agree. its just i can see that sort of thing happening.07:03
qpoi_DasEi: so it shouldn't even be necessary to scan07:03
innomengrendal_prime, well, then buy 10 up front :)07:03
qpoi_DasEi: at least any code or autorun files in the root of the drive07:03
sol93cattellar: so you basically want to kill everything except the normal stuff, you could edit anyways?07:03
klownis it possible to run both ventrilo and teamspeak, and have their outputs and inputs directed to the same usb headset07:04
richardcavellDasEi: so a normal switch won't do such a thing?07:04
spOanyone know what is a better driver xv or gl2 and how come mplayer does not list ati as a driver?07:04
grendal_primeit would be a deterant for people to not do that...you now see how this goes..wooo shit...beter than i thought stock up.  .07:04
pfruanany know how can i auto install mysql-server ,skip root pwd setting by manual07:04
grendal_primealright well like i say im going to talk to vdp in the morning about it...ill let you know what they say.07:04
innomengrendal_prime, yea07:04

Guest38006my mom said there is problem's in her desktop and as i see it, the home folder icon in desktop showed only desktop and examples as folders when there was other contents.. and when i open it in file browser, it is was like a loop between the user-home folder and desktop, if you click on home folder it shows desktop and examples as content. if you click on desktop, again only home folder appears and that loop goes on.. i deleted that icon on desktop and a07:06
sol93cattellar: i am looking for a way to remove those additional entries. Currently I am looking in gconf-editor07:06
DasEirichardcavell: if there are not too many machines, single nics will be much cheaper, else I don't know  for sure if there are still hubs out that only forward to an uplink (to the router)07:06
cattellarsol93, awesome, thanks for helping me07:06
WIGGMPkHas anyone had any issues with Jaunty, experiencing unusually high CPU usage out of Xorg, and system monitor is pretty vague and borderline non-helpful about what process it is...07:07
Slartinnomen: looks good to me07:07
richardcavellDasEi: Can the average motherboard cope with multiple NICs?  Can Ubuntu cope with it with no issue?07:07
DasEirichardcavell: sure, depends on your slots, and usb is also possible07:07
innomenslart: cool, thanks, do you see what is being done there? "look in this directory find every mp3 under here, now move them here" can that be done with a gui? like "show me every .txt file under this folder"07:08
richardcavellDasEi: you mean usb to ethernet adapter?07:08
Slartinnomen: sure.. you could replace "mv {} ~/Desktop/folder" with "gedit {}" and it would open a text editor window for each file07:09
DasEirichardcavell: yes, case of slots up; multi-jack nics are also for richies mostly07:09
Kebertrichardcavell: you could pick up a WRT54GL, throw Tomato on it and enable AP Isolation.  Connect them wirelessly, and no machine will be able to talk to the other.07:09
Guest38006SHORT VERSION: a symlink kinda thing as desktop icon for home folder and which makes it an infinite loop of path between desktop and home folder.. can that be a sign of any kind of malicious activity?07:09
richardcavellDasEi: I didn't understand that07:10
richardcavellKebert: I didn't understand that either.07:10
DasEirichardcavell: for just that routing thing, a PIII500 will do fine, or even smaller07:10
richardcavellDasEi: yeah, if I set up a computer with Ubuntu server as a router it won't even have a GUI07:10
innomenslart: ok, heh, i dont want to open every file in a seperate window, i dont even want to open the files, i'm just curious if there is any app that will shopw me every given file in a directory no matter how far they are nested07:10
gralcohi, I'm trying to update chromium but in update manager its gray and uncheckable, what should I do07:11
DasEirichardcavell: slots up = no more space for additonal nics; multi-socket nics are also available in server market07:11
innomenlike the graphical equivilant of "dir /s *.mp3"07:11
phill_hei07:11
Guest38006ULTRA SHORT VERSION:I know viruses are not there on gnu but should we care about possibly unknown symlinks?07:11
phill_anybody in the house07:11
Kebertrichardcavell: AP Isolation will put the router into a mode so that each machine can connect wirelessly and will be able to surf the net.  Communication from machine to machine will not be permitted.  Easy to set up also.  But, you'd have to go the wireless route.07:11
cattellarsol93, look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35079007:11
Kebertrichardcavell: not sure if that fits your situation.07:11
Slartinnomen: oh.. you mean like that.. no, I don't think there is such an app..  you can do searches that way with "grep" though.. but nothing that shows you every text file.. at least not with a gui07:12
BadisHey, Im currently reading about internet security and I would like to try out the things I read about ssh and tunneling your traffic. it would be neat, the problem is I want to find a server with a free shell account that can do that, does anyone have a link to provide?

richardcavellKebert: not really07:12
innomenslart: alright thats what i thought just wanted a second opinion, thanks man :)07:12
Slartinnomen: you're welcome07:12
Guest38006am i not making sense??07:12
sol93cattellar: yea, there are many .desktop files in /usr/share/applications - you probably have to simply delete the approriate ones07:12
DasEiBrendenX: sudo fdisk -l07:12
richardcavellKebert: I'm going to use a cable modem.  1 megabyte / second is about the benchmark.  I don't want to put all of that over wireless.  Stability is a major issue.07:12

ActionParsnipspO: best is an opinion and therefore not concrete07:26
qpoi_er, it seems that neros is no longer here. would anyone else know an answer to that? wubi uses static or expandable virtual drives?07:26
innomenso then this thread is fully of people making a big deal of nothing07:26
innomenhttp://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1045759.html07:26
DasEiinnomen:  locate *.mp307:26
DasEiinnomen:  do you already have a folder to copy to ?07:27
MindVirusAnyone know?07:27
innomenDasEi, now but i can make one easy, i was kind of hoping to simply move them to the root music directoruy07:27
=== yo is now known as cattellar
DasEiinnomen:  use -i option in cp to be asked07:27
innomenlike audio/music/subdir/subdir/*.mp3 to audio/music/*.mp307:28
DasEiinnomen:  bad idea, give it a folder07:28
ActionParsnipqpoi_: the static gives a fixed size like your physical drive/s. the expandable one will report a size t othe OS bt only be as big as the data you need for wubi07:28
gartralhow do i clear alib sound buffer from programs that quit before the buffers were deleted?07:28
qpoi_ActionParsnip: yes--i'm familiar with that behavior in virtualbox and such, but wubi does not specify which it uses07:28
qpoi_ActionParsnip: would you happen to know?07:28
=== apc_ is now known as apc
innomengah this is hopeless, this is really a barrier for new adopters07:28
innomenwhat good is the search button in gnome?07:29
ActionParsnipqpoi_: no idea. i detest wubi07:29
MindVirusinnomen: sadly, this is not paid support.07:29
innomenwhy even have it if its not even as powerful as Dir07:29
gogetainnomen: cp -r *.mp3 /new/folder07:29
qpoi_innomen: would be good to raise that issue on ubuntu brainstorm or something07:29
cattellarsol93, almost done07:29
innomenMindVirus, did i say it was?07:29
MindVirusinnomen: I was not giving you attitude.07:29
gogetaqpoi_: why all linux can do it07:30
ActionParsnipinnomen: mkdir ~/found; find -name "*.mp3" -exec cp {} ~/found \;07:30
qpoi_gogeta: what?07:30
gogetaqpoi_: with that command right there07:30
innomenqpoi_, yea, i plan too, but before i do that i want to make sure i'm not missing something well known07:30
DasEinah,innomen, there is more powerfull ls, else to give you a pipe without clearance could mess up, too07:30
MindVirusinnomen: just sayin', it's hard to get attention around here. I know very well.07:30
=== kaz_ is now known as Kazriko
qpoi_gogeta: i mean his idea that gnome search hinders new ubuntu users07:30
MindVirusinnomen: If you'd like more attention, try the forums.07:30
apcI can ssh into my computer and run a program, but whenever I close the terminal (gnome-terminal) that the program was run from, the program closes. Is there a way to run a program without needing its terminal open?07:30
ActionParsnipinnomen: will search from the pwd recursively finding mp3s and copy the file to the folder ~/found07:30
innomenMindVirus, people are helping me plenty i think its the lack of options in the ware itself that is the issue07:30
chalcedonyi don't really understand how to get the drivers i need to install on ubuntu 8.10 - AMD Radeon HD 3200 graphics , can someone explain or tell me what to do please?07:30
qpoi_gogeta: unrelated to the command07:30
gogetaqpoi_: locate is your frend07:30
MindVirusinnomen: I see; I didn't see the context, then.07:31
innomenActionParsnip, There we go!07:31
chalcedonyActionParsnip,  hugs07:31
innomenMindVirus, go play with the "Search" button07:31
ActionParsnipinnomen: like i said earlier(?)07:31
DasEiActionParsnip: i option in cp to provide overwrite of doubles ?07:31
MindVirusinnomen: I rarely search because I am very organized.07:31
innomeni sware its like a steeringwheel on a fridge07:31
MindViruss/rarely/never/07:31
ActionParsnipinnomen: duplicated file names will overwrite with the latest found07:31
innomenActionParsnip, cool07:31
MindVirusinnomen: where is the search button?07:32
innomenthanks everyone, i'm going to go melt my msuic collection now :)07:32
ActionParsnipinnomen: you should have researched on what I said when my simley made you uneasy07:32
MindVirusAhh, "Search for files..."07:32
innomenActionParsnip, bah, i'm allowed ot be a chicken :)07:32
sol93My Ubuntu wants to combine the tilde with the character I type after, how can I make the tilde key ("~") act as a normal, non-combining key?07:32
DasEiheh, no more different versions of wagners9th ;-)07:33
ActionParsnipinnomen: if you want. but you'll get more done if you find stuff out or look into stuff when it is suggested07:33
Slartsol93: afaik that's the way the tilde key works.. how else are you going to write ñ,ã or ĩ for example07:33
gogetainnomen: lol no cp is safe being the orignal files dont get erased07:33
MindVirusinnomen: ooh! This seems nifty; I think I'll start using it.07:33
ActionParsnipinnomen: find -replace is one of the most powerful commands in linux imho07:33
MindVirusWhat's wrong with it?07:33
Slartsol93: it might be different in some other localization though..07:33
sol93Slart: i have seen computers (or programs), where the tilde always appears. I never enter stuff like ñ07:33
gogetainnomen: if something does go wrong07:34
innomenMindVirus, try to use it to find say every txt file on your system07:35
innomenMindVirus, just to like show them in a list07:35
cattellarsol93, i think it's not possible to remove recent documents, but it's possible to at least disable it07:35
innomenMindVirus, i cant get it to show me anything07:35
sol93Slart: i cant even type [~][/] to access my home, its always [~][space][/] and thats unneccecary and annoying... didnt find out how to change that via google so far07:35
sol93cattellar: i'll look again in gcong07:35
MindVirusinnomen: in Linux, text files are no different than other files.07:35
sol93cattellar: i'll look again in gconf-edit07:35
gogetasol93: or cd /07:35
gogetalol07:35
innomenMindVirus, ok, any file of a given extension then07:36
innomenmp3 for insatnce :)07:36
chalcedony i don't really understand how to get the drivers i need to install on ubuntu 8.10 - AMD Radeon HD 3200 graphics , can someone explain or tell me what to do please?07:36
Slartsol93: well.. good luck in your search.. check in system, preferences, keyboard too.. there might be a setting hidden somewhere07:36
innomeni got search put in mp3 i get nothing despite seeing an mp3 in the very directory i'm starting in07:36
gogetachalcedony: -1 for not looking in admin and hardware07:36
sol93Slart: gogeta: i am hunting down a problem with synergy (virtual kvm switch), when i hit tilde from the WinXP master, only a space appears. And I found the extra key always annoying, so i want to find out how to make it a normal key07:36
innomeni try *.mp3 nothing07:36
chalcedonyi found them on a url. downloaded but it says i need an application to install them .. it's not finding anything i can use07:36
DasEichalcedony: it isn't listed in hardwaredrivers ?07:36
Hilikusim using the livecd to repartition my drive but everytime gparted reads it the stupid drive gets mounted. that gave me problems already when it got mounted in the middle of being repartition07:36
innomenwhat command is "search" useing?07:37
Hilikushow do i disable that automount?07:37
sol93Slart: i'll do, thanks07:37
Hilikusits not really automount, more like, mount on demand07:37
gogetasol93: i think you look in admin keybord and you can change the mapping07:37
innomenlocate?07:37
MindVirusinnomen: try ".mp3".07:37
gogetaMindVirus: *.mp307:37
Slartsol93: not sure if xmodmap could work.. but have a look at it..07:37
innomenMindVirus, omg i'm a mental defective07:38
MindVirusgogeta: what?07:38
innomenthat did it07:38
MindVirusinnomen: :007:38
sol93Slart: i can test that...07:38
MindVirus*:)07:38
MindVirusinnomen: glad I could help. :D07:38
DasEiHilikus: gparted won't start partitoning a drive when it's mounted;; have no window or dir on the drive open07:38
innomenlmao07:38
gogeta< -107:38
MindVirusinnomen: apparently it doesn't support regex of any kind.07:38
chalcedonyDasEi,  umm i guess i don't know where hardware drivers is either07:38
innomenredex?07:39
innomenregex..07:39
HilikusDasEi: i unmount the drive but as soon as i hit refresh in gparted (or upon start of gparted) the drive gets automounted07:39
myselfim lonely07:39
Hilikusthats what i need to disable07:39
MindVirusinnomen: regex -- regular expressions. A very powerful method to search through data.07:39
innomenmyself: me 2, you get used ot it07:39
ActionParsnipHilikus: edit /etc/fstab and make sure it isnt present in there07:39
gogetachalcedony: looks in the gnome menus in system>admin and hardware07:39
psypher246hi all, i am having very frustrating issue with simple ssh key authentication. it just won't work, followed the procedure to the T yet still asks for password. did an ssh -v and tail -f /var/log/{syslog,auth.log} while logging in. output of that is here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/248453/07:39
innomenMindVirus, ahhh07:39
DasEichalcedony: system > preferences > hardwaredrivers07:39
innomenlike ???.mp3 find 123.mp3 124.mp307:40
ActionParsnipHilikus: you will be editing the fstab of the livecd so a reboot will loose all changes07:40
HilikusActionParsnip: it is not, this is in a livecd07:40
chalcedonyok07:40
MindVirusinnomen: kinda, but WAY more powerful.07:40
eusu_kefuinAnyone has a clue to a document explaining the purpose of and how to build from source /lib/modules/2.6.24-*/ubuntu?07:40
ActionParsnipHilikus: the live cd still has an fstab file, silly07:40
innomenMindVirus, i used regular expression for text replace in notepad ++ in windows07:40
HilikusActionParsnip: the only thing in fstab is unionfs, tmpfs and swap07:40
MindVirusinnomen: You can match many patterns, you can have conditionals, etc. Only thing is, the syntax is very terse and disgusting.07:40
ActionParsnipHilikus: is the swap on the internal drive?07:40
HilikusActionParsnip: yes07:41
sol93lol just killed my tilde key totally07:41
innomenMindVirus, yea, i wrote batch files to translate medicare eobs into human readable english07:41
innomenit was... complicated07:41
gogetasol93: -1007:41
MindVirusinnomen: :)07:41
Hilikusbut previously it did it with an NTFS drive so it's not even because it needs it, its just that i thinks i'm trying to access it without it being mounted so it mounts it07:41
ActionParsnipHilikus: then you could create a swap partition i ram an change the fstab to use that07:42
ActionParsnipHilikus: ntfs partition you mean :D07:42
Hilikusyes07:42
DasEiHilikus: how much ram does the sys have ?07:43
innomenMindVirus, i just accomplished my goal07:43
MindVirusinnomen: great!07:43
ActionParsnipinnomen: good lad07:43

DasEihehe07:43
Hilikusbah! nm, gparted (at least the version i have, whcih is from feisty) can't resize a partition to the left. i have a bunch of unallocated space at the beginning of my disk07:43
innomenand just think i didnt have to learn anything about command line !07:43
gogetahehe07:43
gogetawhat07:44
innomenActionParsnip: lol no, search did it with .mp3 instead of *.mp307:44
gogetainnomen: lol07:44
innomeni just moved over 2000 files just by right clicking copy07:44
innomenerrr cut07:44
gogetainnomen: * is a command line thing07:44
MindVirusActionParsnip: I see you around here a lot. Are you a dev?07:44

losherpsypher246: I don't recognise the .ecryptfs/wrapped-passphrase stuff, which the server is clearly having a problem with. Whose procedure are you following?07:45

Guest38006i think i have a bug or its really something stupid i did, but i have an error now as i drag places->home folder to desktop saying..Error stating file '/home/nirmala/.local/share/Trash/files/nirmala/Desktop/nirmala/Desktop/nirmala/ and goes on that loop.. http://pastebin.ca/1520174 that has the whole directory path explained. pls help..07:45
innomeni now have a folder with all my mp3s and no directories whcih is exactly what i wanted07:45
DasEiHilikus: if the internal contains a swap, it'll be automounted at bootup, if you got enough ram to run live, simply comment it; Feisty might be bad without ntfs-progs, use gparted live cd07:45
ActionParsnipinnomen: no music.mp3 and music.MP3 are 2 different files07:45
chalcedonyi don't see hardwaredrivers .. it should be between Encryption and Keyboard , no?07:45

simonb1guys, i have issues with ELO touchscreen in ubuntu 8.10... the responses are reversed... how to deal with that?07:46
chalcedonySystem > Preferences ..07:46
MindVirusinnomen: that's right, Linux has case-sensitive file names.07:46
gogetaDasEi: feisty upgrade man07:46
HilikusDasEi: no,this is now with an ext3 partition, i did it early with ntfs and the drive got mounted in the middle of the process07:46
innomenActionParsnip, oh wow, thanks07:46
innomenthats important07:46
ActionParsnipinnomen: very07:46
innomenActionParsnip, can i tell it to not do that?07:46
Guest38006that is just draggig home folder icon out of places menu to desktop is showing a nasty error!!!!!!07:46
simonb1anyone some idea about ELO?07:47
losherpsypher246: you have client & server backwards above. You keygen on the client & copy its .pub to authorized keys on the server. Was that a typo?07:47
ActionParsnipinnomen: i'm sure there will be a switch on find you can add to ignore uppercase, or you can simply lowercase all the file extensions for mp3s first07:47
HilikusDasEi: but i wanted to extend an ext3 partition, but at least this version doesnt extend to previous cylinders07:47
innomenActionParsnip, dude i just tried it, mP3 mp3 and MP# found all the same files07:47
someone153I have a noob question but I am trying to change the permisions on a folder the root has control over it right now I want to add a difrent group to have right and read permisions but still leave the root with all the permisions it has07:47
innomenerr MP307:48
Hilikussomeone153: root always has permission07:48
innomeni think maybe it uses that switch by default assuming only newbs like me will use the search button?07:48
Hilikusyou don't need to worry about that07:48

sol93Slart: i found a post, they seem to have found the solution "nodeadkeys" - do you understand, what they mean?07:49
psypher246losher: no it wasn't, i thought that might be it and i tried both ways, neither server nor client can ssh into each other07:49
gartralEvet: there is no 9.06.. and no, you need too follow the path of upgrades too 8.04>8.10>9.0407:50
gogetaEvet: no you would need to go from 8.04 to 8,10 to 9.0407:50
losherEvet: you mean 8.04 to 9.04, the answer is no, and there's no point anyway, as 9.04 adds little except instability, in my opinion...07:50
gogetalol07:50
Slartsol93: yes.. a dead key is a key that doesn't immediately give you a "character".. for example shift, ~, ` and so on.. not really sure where you'd configure that though07:50
sol93Slart: dpkg-reconfigure07:50
Slartsol93: ah... well.. give it a try07:51
innomenthis is cool! its working, i knew putting them all in a single directory would help07:51
sol93Slart: what i find strange, is that i do NOT want dead keys, so how could activating it help? confused ... aha... the asterisk is dead also07:51
* innomen does a little dance 07:51
losherpsypher246: do you have console access to the server? If so, you can run sshd -d to get additional debugging info from the server...07:52
psypher246losher: nope just tried again, does ot work07:52
Slartsol93: activating "nodeadkeys" sounds like it would be the same as disabling dead keys.. or?07:52
psypher246losher: ok lemme try07:52
sol93Slart: oops... alright... :-)07:52
Evetlosher, what kind of instability? new softwares makes my 8.0x instable too07:52

Guest38006Slart: ^?08:16
Slartsyntax_: there is a trash-cli package you can install08:17
innomenthanks guys i'll go corss my fingers somewhere else :) may all of you find quick effective solutions :)08:17

dumontmannnn it's taking 5+ minutes to empty the trash :O08:17
syntax_I just wanted to know the command for it08:17
SlartGuest38006: ah, there you are.. so.. can you open the trash folder?08:17
SephLanceGot a quick question if no one minds.08:17
Slartlosher: which one?08:17
losherSlart: about there being a trash-cli package?08:18
Slartlosher: or nevermind.. I haven't been joking since I got up this morning.. nope.. the trash cli package wasn't a joke08:18

Guest38006Slart: sure i can but it won't delete if i say it to empty trash.. i was thinking whether i could just rm -rf ~/.local/share/Trash/* ? would it affect some other database that i see at ~/.local/share/tracker/data/common.db?08:19
losherSlart: Oh, I get it. It moves stuff into trash instead of deleting it...08:19
Slartsyntax_: if you install that package I think you get a empty-trash command.. together with some other trash commands08:19
dumontwonder what the command to empty trash is in trash-cli08:19
Slartlosher: nope.. it lets you empty the trash and some other stuff08:19
ClouseHi there all, say is there anyway to run a command to make sure Ubuntu 8.10 has all of it default packages? As I think I have messed up and removed something I shouldn't have.08:19

SephLancelosher: I appreciate the advice.08:31
Clouselosher: So there are some packages that have been removed but I don't know what they relate to so I am not sure if I should reinstall them.08:32
losherSephLance: been there, got the lost data to prove it...08:32
krautlosher: it's just an allday-greeting08:32
losherkraut: ok, as long as you understand it isn't actually English. With a name like "kraut" I thought you might not realise...08:32
Clouselosher: It is my Ubuntu updates that is not working, but I don't know which removed packages relate to the issue.08:33
krautlosher: sure i know...08:33
SephLancelosher: As do I, but everything important has already been backed up, I'm was just wondering if there were anything of which I was unaware or why it may have mislabeled a file as being 40GB in size as opposed to 0.5 GB.08:33
losherClouse: one thing at a time. If you can't update, you can't reinstall...08:33
krautlosher: shall i use "p'tak" to satisfy you?08:33
zj3t3mjuanyone?08:33

JoAnneOmynousIt's most definitely Klingon.08:34

JoAnneOmynousIt's some variety of insult.08:35
losherSephLance: it sounds like a seriously damaged filesystem. I wouldn't trust it any further than I could spit. How lucky do you feel?08:35

DarthPuffit says xgl not present08:36
krautlosher: i really don't care08:36
losherSephLance: well that's only half the problem. Anything you might care to put on there in the future is also potentially compromised....08:36
SephLancelosher: Well, that's fine.  It's a tertiary workstation.  It would be worth more to me to attempt to recover the file system just to have it fail later than to trash it and reconfigure today.08:38
losherClouse: so you can install but not update. That's weird...08:38

losherSephLance: you can run sudo du -x | sort -rn > du.out to see exactly which files are using space? Apart from that, I'd check the SMART data on the drive to see if it's logging failures...08:40

dayoikonia: i still need root ssh from LAN for my backup server to be able to work.08:51
losherxim_: because . and .. are also directories but you don't want to copy them with cp -r, and cp without -r skips directories by default. If that makes sense...08:51
geirhaxim_: cp omits all directories unless you add the -r or -a to make it copy recursively08:52

ikonialosher: I didn't say don't use root, but your backup process should not have to login to ssh directlry as root08:53
justanothercodershould i install openssh server or something?08:53
DarthPuffDaveSiberia: it's like xgl just vanished08:54
ikoniadayo: I'm not aware of that product personally, but if your product needs to remotley login as root, I would not recommend that as a sane solution08:54
justanothercoderi need to access my machine from my lan, but for some reason i am not able to ssh into my ubuntu box, there is no firewall08:54
losherjustanothercoder: yes, install openssh server. It's not there by default...08:54
ikoniajustanothercoder: there are no blocking firewall rules by default08:54
dayoikonia: not remotely. it logs in as root from LAN08:54
Celestarin 9.04-server how do I reconfigure the network settings? (like you get it during the installation procedure)?08:54
ikoniadayo: that is remote08:54
Clouselosher: When I run "sudo apt-get update" and "sudo apt-get upgrade" all is ok and there is nothing to update or upgrade, but if i run the "Update Manager" GUI from Sytem->Administration then I get this; Not all updates can be in installed, Run a partial upgrade, to install as many update as possible, This can be caused by; and then it give four reasons. What do you think?08:54

losherdayo: you could maybe to  PermitRootLogin         nopwd and use public key authorization for the local backup machine. This would still be secure, if not exactly what you wanted...08:58
sol93Slart: i found a semi-solution, i use the unicode to enter the tilde. for some reason, i cannot enter the pipe this way.08:58
allartHi08:59
dayolosher: it does use passwordless pubkey login08:59
allartI've been using NX server in by Ubuntu for a long time. Ubuntu 8.04 and 9.0408:59
Slartsol93: ahh.. neat09:00
losherdayo: then  PermitRootLogin nopwd would prevent anyone else without a key from logging in as root. That's *almost* what you asked for....09:00
DaveSiberiaDarthPuff: My system also gives the warning "Xgl not present", compiz still works09:00
sol93Slart: i hope, i will never have to enter a pipe with unicode, i once found the code, but bash wouldnt accept is as pipe... for now everything works here, somehow at least09:00
allartbut for a few days when I log in from nxclient (windows) to nx server at my computer, gnome starts and it looks like GTK109:00

tictac2324341Does anyone have experience with networking and Hamachi on ubuntu or linux in general?09:01
losherallart: NX is supposed to be really fast. I've never managed to install it because I have a non-standard ssh server....09:01
dayolosher: that works, because i want only the backup server to be able to login as root.09:01
allartchanging theme doesn;t work09:01
losherdayo: sounds like it was invented by someone with the same problem as you...09:02
dayolosher: lol i guess09:02

allartsol93 it is something like VNC, it is from nomachine company09:44
sol93allart: although i doubt, that something is not executed. make sure, it uses 64 colors (not 64K), turn off desktop background and disable compiz (either on the server or in the viewer/vncserver settings)09:45
allartsol93 you install nxserver and you can connect to the computer. It is much faster then VNC09:45
allartsol93 I did. Disabled compiz, remove backgroud, set color do 8 bit09:47
allartand still very slow :-(09:47
sol93allart: i use 6 bit usually *grins*09:47
sol93allart: although those 25% wouldnt be that much of a difference, i think09:48
sol93allart: due to overhead09:48
allartsol93: NX clients works very well with full colors. It has jpeg compression and transfer only changed part of screen09:48
