| mdg | deexannihilate: . thats's under Compiz.. | 01:34 |

| gogeta | boss_mc: yea i tryed the new one it was fast but bugged out | 01:35 |
| cheek | Dr_Willis: well i installed ubuntu first and then windows xp after i re-sized the disk . but now when i load just boots windows xp .. was i supposed install windows first and then ubuntu ? | 01:36 |
| boss_mc | gogeta: exactly | 01:36 |

| mdg | deexannihilate1: gma945 | 01:46 |
| cheddar | gogeta: i mean from the command line, as in "firefox http://www.someplace.com" | 01:46 |
| mdg | deexannihilate1: anything that begins "gma" | 01:46 |
| cheddar | doing so, with firefox already running, causes the url to be opened in the existing window, sometimes in a new tab. I want a new firefox window | 01:47 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: negative | 01:47 |
| arand | Mayday2: in what context? It seems grammaitacally incorrect if anything... | 01:47 |

| deexannihilate1 | mdg: well, hibernation doesn't work. I didn't google to check it out though | 01:53 |
| gogeta | deexannihilate1: i think the gma950 has more speed issues then my 945 even thow there both based on the same chipset | 01:54 |
| Mka | damo22: did you reboot? | 01:54 |
| damo22 | Mka: yes | 01:54 |
| damo22 | Mka: i installed linux-generic and then rebooted | 01:55 |

| mdg | gogeta: deexannihilate1 has trouble with hibernation | 01:55 |
| Mka | damo22: this is strange. did you modify /etc/fstab? | 01:56 |
| SlimG | Is it possible to upload binary instead of source into the launchpad PPA? | 01:56 |

| damo22 | Mka: i modified it ages ago | 01:56 |
| Mka | damo22: try sudo lsof /dev/sda6 | 01:56 |
| mdg | bluebanana: you mean you are at a command line and have no gui? | 01:57 |
| aoirthoir | So I am officialy done banging my head against the wall | 01:57 |
| damo22 | Mka: nothing | 01:57 |
| bluebanana | mdg: well, i want to configure a keyboard shortcut on compiz to restore all minimized windows | 01:57 |
| damo22 | Mka: i am dropped to a shell, i am talking to you via irssi | 01:58 |
| Terabyte | So I have an internet connection currently established through a router which has 4 physical ports on it. the router is rubbish and i was thinking of using an ubuntu box (with 2 ports, 1 from the asdl modem, and one to a 4 port switch) to allow me to share the internet access, and additionall to shape traffic, 2 questions. Firstly does this setup which ommits a router and replaces it with a box and switch work? Secondly, does ubuntu d | 01:58 |
| Mka | damo22: df | grep sda6 | 01:58 |
| damo22 | Mka: nothing | 01:58 |
| Mka | damo22: mount /dev/sda6 /home | 01:58 |
| Mka | damo22: sudo mount /dev/sda6 /home | 01:59 |
| th0r | Terabyte: the short answer....yes | 01:59 |
| ziroday | Terabyte: your question got cut off at "..., does Ubuntu" but yes, you can use an ubuntu computer as a router. | 01:59 |
| damo22 | Mka: mount: /dev/sda6 is already mounted, or busy | 01:59 |
| damo22 | Mka: mount: /dev/sda6 is already mounted, or /home busy | 01:59 |
| ziroday | Terabyte: however it might be easier to just flash your current router with some different firmware and make it more usable | 01:59 |
| Terabyte | Secondly, does ubuntu do a traffic shaping program that would allow me to say "everybody gets 1/4 of the bandwidth available"? | 01:59 |
| mdg | bluebanana: Ctrl + Alt + D will minimize all | 02:00 |
| Terabyte | oh ok | 02:00 |
| Mka | damo22: grep sda6 /etc/fstab | 02:00 |
| Terabyte | well i'm planning on also making it a media server, but i'm just checking that the hardware is sufficient to share, and that there is software to shape | 02:00 |
| Terabyte | sufficient to share an internet connection* | 02:01 |
| ziroday | Terabyte: traffic shaping is somewhat harder to setup. If I were you I would split the router and media server roles. | 02:01 |
| damo22 | Mka: /dev/sda6 /home ext3 defaults 0 2 | 02:01 |
| Terabyte | ok | 02:01 |
| ziroday | Terabyte: and flash your current router with openwrt or tomato | 02:01 |
| bluebanana | mdg: i guess compiz changed that, it doesnt work here | 02:01 |
| chester | Hi | 02:01 |
| Mka | damo22: open /etc/fstab and disable mounting of /dev/sda6 by putting a # in front of that line and reboot again | 02:01 |

| savanny1976u | Hi, I have a question before I do anything stupid, I have a window XP media center 2005, It came with Intel(R) 82801GR/GH SATA RAID. I want to set it to "RAID1" . does RAID Mirror a "LINUX" Partition?? thank you.. | 02:05 |
| bluebanana | mdg: yes | 02:05 |
| lunis | chester, when people see more than one or two lines from one person, their brains auto-block the whole thing | 02:05 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: do you think it is possible to fix it or do i need to download the NBR version? | 02:05 |
| mdg | bluebanana: Ctrl + Alt + D works for me to minimize/maximize all | 02:05 |
| chester | ok sorry | 02:05 |
| bluebanana | mdg: ctrl+alt+d shows the desktop, you cannot really restore later the windows that were minimized already | 02:05 |
| lunis | chester, which is why you should put your question on one line | 02:05 |
| chester | i make it in one line | 02:05 |
| bluebanana | mdg: minimize one of your windows then press ctrl+alt+D twice, the minimized window won't restore... that's why i need a "restore all" command | 02:06 |
| mdg | gogeta: deexannihilate1 has a problem with netbook launcher not working right? | 02:06 |
| ziroday | savanny1976u: yes a dedicated raid controller should be able to mirror two disks. If you're not sure use software raid. Also see !raid | 02:06 |
| deexannihilate1 | mdg: couldn't bluebanana just use the show desktop button? i didn't really read the situation, but it does restore | 02:06 |
| ziroday | err s/disks/partitions | 02:06 |
| mdg | bluebanana: have you tried grouping windows together? | 02:07 |

| Ky|e | Well I got newest version of ubunto | 02:23 |
| Dr_Willis | Ky|e: clarify 'newest' | 02:23 |
| Ky|e | and I think it's a ati radieon x1200 but not sure | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | 9.10 ? 9.04 ? | 02:24 |
| Mka | damo22: i got it | 02:24 |

| Dr_Willis | Ky|e: and the next release 9.10 *in testing* i hear fix's some of the issues.. | 02:24 |
| ziroday | Ky|e: that card should work out of the box, what is the issue? | 02:24 |
| CaptainCrook | anyone know if the next ubuntu support properly radeon 9000 ? | 02:24 |
| Ky|e | Well | 02:24 |
| ziroday | CaptainCrook: yes that card is supported | 02:24 |
| Dr_Willis | CaptainCrook: check in #ubuntu+1 or the beta-testing forums perhaps.. | 02:24 |
| Ky|e | it's runnin on vesa driver now | 02:24 |
| Ky|e | but when I load the fglxr driver it freeze's | 02:25 |
| Ky|e | well the video anyway's | 02:25 |
| gogeta | CaptainCrook: no to old but the oss drivers that come with ubuntu have full support | 02:25 |
| ziroday | Ky|e: for the second time, keep your responses on one line and please address who you are talking to, for all our sanity :) | 02:25 |
| Ky|e | my bad | 02:25 |
| ziroday | Ky|e: the fglrx driver no longer supports that card, you should use the radeon/ati driver | 02:25 |
| damo22 | Mka: i made an extended partition because i thought i was gonna need more than 4 | 02:25 |
| CaptainCrook | ok... thanks folks... | 02:26 |

| ziroday | Drained: kde is a common one | 02:26 |
| ziroday | Ky|e: please pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 02:26 |
| Ky|e | it's using vesa currently | 02:26 |
| gogeta | !best | Drained | 02:26 |
| zefyx | as it stands, you have to locally be on the box, login & startup the remote desktop | 02:26 |

| chal`away | if i need to change my monitors and i have ati radeon on borard video, in ubuntu 8.10 am i barking up the wrong tree to edit my xorg.conf directly? or do i need to be doing something else? | 02:27 |
| Drained | and gogeta are you stupid i said better alternative | 02:27 |
| Ky|e | but will past give me a second | 02:27 |
| Drained | never said "best" | 02:27 |
| neil_d | Drained: some like kde (a.k.a kubuntu) I like XFce (a.k.a. xubuntu) | 02:27 |
| ziroday | Drained: better and best are qualitive measurements, what some people like others might not. | 02:27 |

| aoupi | pe1: try in #httpd | 02:36 |
| calamari_ | Kez: I mean overall.. what is your goal? | 02:36 |
| maxie | yeah right gogeta why can't i mount me usb then aften i remove it without close the usb first xD | 02:36 |
| Drained | he's trying to edit Xorg calamari: | 02:36 |
| chal`away | i'll try asking this another way: in ubuntu 8.10 can you change video by editing the xorg.conf ? | 02:36 |
| Kez | I want to change the resolution of the Virtualbox so i can work in ubutu more effiecently | 02:36 |
| calamari_ | Drained: but why | 02:36 |
| Digital_Warrior | Does any one have a few min to help me with a dule video card issue. one is pcix the other onboard | 02:36 |
| Drained | calamari: he never said why :\ | 02:37 |
| gogeta | maxie: you need a windows pc to correct a ntfs drive | 02:37 |
| chal`away | Digital_Warrior, i also have a video issue .. which ubuntu? | 02:37 |
| maxie | i use fat | 02:37 |
| Digital_Warrior | latest stable | 02:37 |
| calamari_ | Drained: the reason I ask is that he was trying to change the file from "read only" .. when the real problem was that it simply needed to be edited by root.. so I think we need to understand what the real problem is | 02:37 |
| Ky|e | ziroday, everytime I switch channel's in xchat I get a huge page tear.. is that normal with video driver's loaded? | 02:37 |
| chal`away | Digital_Warrior, i have 8.10 .. did anything you googled talk about editing the xorg.conf ? | 02:38 |
| nositelicense | /join #kubuntu | 02:38 |
| Drained | i think he left after he figured out how to edit it :\ | 02:38 |
| Digital_Warrior | i do a lspci and lshw and do not see the onboard video any where. and if i set the bios to load the onboard first my video is messed up | 02:38 |
| gogeta | maxie: people do tend to have issues with fat auto mounting | 02:38 |
| nositelicense | how to what? | 02:38 |
| calamari_ | Drained: oh well hehe :) | 02:38 |
| Digital_Warrior | i have not been able to find anything on google about it. as i can not see the dam onboard they are both ati. the pcix is hd3600 the onboard is unkown as i can not lspci or lswh and see it. i now have no video | 02:39 |
| Kez | calamari_: I want to change the resolution of the Virtualbox so i can work in ubutu more effiecently | 02:39 |
| Digital_Warrior | is there a way to boot into a command line insted of the gui | 02:39 |
| FoolsRun | I guess nobody knows much about CUPS | 02:39 |
| maxie | gogeta:i have few problems with that before but then i just use chkdsk and it work but not now | 02:39 |
| calamari_ | Kez: say what? | 02:39 |
| Digital_Warrior | in Virtualbox to change the quest res you change the res in the quest and the VB window auto resizes | 02:39 |
| maxie | usally i can remove and reinsett the usb without trouble | 02:39 |
| Drained | calamari_: he's trying to force a resolution i THINK. | 02:40 |
| gogeta | maxie: yea only windows can fix windows drives | 02:40 |
| blognewb | hey guys how can you save the remote site dropdown history on filezilla? | 02:40 |
| calamari_ | Drained: I don't think he needs to be editing xorg for that hehe | 02:40 |
| gogeta | maxie: thers a few tools for linux but its just best to use windows | 02:40 |
| zefyx | how do i make apt-get remove ONLY REMOVE the packages it installed | 02:40 |
| Kez | calamari_: I'm running ubuntu in a virtual machine (virtualbox) and the resolution is stuck a maximum on 800x600. I want to increase the resolution of the screen. | 02:40 |
| maxie | but when i try 2 run chkdsk on win it's say it can't because the driver is in use or someting and say i most restart | 02:40 |
| zefyx | aka, im trying to remove wine & it want's to remove the linux kernel. | 02:41 |
| maxie | that don't work | 02:41 |
| carlosqueso | Digital_Warrior: you should be able to select "fail-safe" from the boot menu...press escape to access the menu if it doesn't automaticly come up | 02:41 |
| maxie | -_- | 02:41 |
| Digital_Warrior | giving it a shot thanks carlosqueso | 02:41 |
| Drained | kez: using a virtualbox removes most support for video cards since it only gives it 12mb video ram. | 02:41 |
| zefyx | no one eh? | 02:41 |
| purist | I have returned. | 02:41 |
| gogeta | maxie: chkdsk d: \f | 02:41 |
| maxie | oh | 02:41 |
| maxie | okey | 02:41 |
| damo22 | Mka: Thanks, that fixed the problem | 02:41 |
| gogeta | or yourrr usb sticks drive letter | 02:41 |
| Kez | Drained: Ah so then I'm stuck at 800x600? | 02:41 |
| Drained | Kez: give me a sec i helped someone do this yesterday. | 02:42 |
| maxie | long time since i have used win now xD | 02:42 |
| Drained | no no you're not you can force it give me a sec | 02:42 |
| Digital_Warrior | Calamari you might be about to do it under the options for the quest os | 02:42 |
| Kez | Alright | 02:42 |
| Kez | Thank you | 02:42 |
| calamari_ | maxie: I think it's /f not \f :) | 02:42 |

| zefyx | even though it didn't install them,. | 02:42 |

| blakkheim | purist: and not in a vm this time =x | 02:43 |
| gogeta | linuxc image is the kernel | 02:43 |

| Drained | wait lockup issue? | 02:53 |
| Drained | i never got it and ive used a 6100 and a 6150LE and the 8600gts all nvidia, X never locked up. | 02:53 |

| jamescarr_ | Drained, some time back I came in here about my weird issue on my laptop of being unable to focus on other windows, swith windows, etc... I'd be locked into the current focus. If I alt+f4 to close the current app, I'd just be unable to to focus to anything else altogether | 02:55 |
| jamescarr_ | this issue is in gnome | 02:55 |
| jamescarr_ | I was told it's a common problem and was pointed to a issue report describing something similar | 02:55 |
| Drained | iv'e never had that problem on Jaunty, but i got it once on Hardy, before i installed newer drivers. | 02:55 |
| jamescarr_ | however, I neglected to bookmark it, and have no idea what to search for it :) | 02:55 |
| Hilikus | how can i see what dns servers i'm using | 02:56 |
| Digital_Warrior | well i have one more backup of xorg.conf to try | 02:56 |
| tya2 | I need help getting the sound to function in ubuntu- I created a new user and the sound in firefox worked briefly- but now I have no sound in ubuntu or in other applications | 02:56 |
| Drained | Hilikus: have you checked network tools? | 02:57 |
| Hilikus | Drained: no ill do that | 02:57 |
| chal`away | Digital_Warrior, i think you want aticonfig .. it's a way to configure your xorg.conf | 02:57 |
| carlosqueso | By the way...did ATI ever get pressured into making their newest driver compatible with the Radeon Mobility series? | 02:58 |
| damo22 | which are the standard fglrx packages built into ubuntu? what are they called? | 02:58 |
| Drained | carlos: no luck ati refused to do it :\ | 02:58 |
| Hilikus | Drained: it's not there | 02:58 |

| imac | uhh.. im getting nuts | 03:32 |
| jtaji | ElronMcBong: that is correct | 03:33 |
| marcelo | I downloaded ubuntu with epiphany but it did not allow me to save the ubuntu-9.04-desktop-amd64.iso file so I removed the .iso suffix and it was saved as ubuntu-9.04-desktop-amd64.tar.gz, but now I do not know how to generate an image so that I can burn in a cd to install it. How should I do | 03:33 |
| boss_mc | ElronMcBong: or run the aptoncd in a livecd (if you have a 2nd cd drive) or in a liveusb (if you have one) | 03:33 |
| ElronMcBong | well then another question, when I use the network manager of kde and add a configuration to the list of wired or wireless connections, why is there no such think as "try the settings and tell me if something's wrong".

| vexati0n | i have a problem - it looks like half of the DVDs I try to play can't be read on my system... I've installed restricted extras and have an up-to-date libdvd* so what's the deal? | 03:36 |
| SirTopHat | I can't seem to find this on google. can ubuntu use .cur files for changing cursors? | 03:36 |
| bishop | why does kde not come with firefox? | 03:37 |
| tabris|away | bishop: huhwhat? | 03:37 |
| tabris|away | bishop: how does _that_ make sense? | 03:37 |
| th0r | bishop: kde uses konqueror for browsing by defualt | 03:37 |
| th0r | (default) | 03:37 |
| vexati0n | bishop: because KDE develops Konqueror, which is almost as good as Firefox, unless you want a browser that works. | 03:37 |
| trakcyia | I'm trying to compile the latest compat wireless and am getting undefined warnings, the warnings cause unknown symbol errors when trying to load the module | 03:37 |
| tabris|away | consider that firefox is a gtk2 app | 03:37 |
| tabris|away | kde likes qt | 03:37 |
| tabris|away | geez, i wonder... | 03:38 |
| th0r | tabris|away: don't even think it | 03:38 |
| vexati0n | also firefox by default looks like crap in KDE | 03:38 |
| bishop | how good is konqueror? | 03:38 |
| ElronMcBong | boss_mc: Actually I just wanted to download wicd right now... creating a whole package cd for that one application will be my last choice^^ | 03:38 |
| boss_mc | ElronMcBong: see what packages it depends on though | 03:39 |
| boss_mc | it might be quite a job getting the dependancies | 03:39 |
| ElronMcBong | yeah I don't hope so | 03:39 |

| Palace_Chan | when i type ls or g++ in bash executables in /usr/bin get called, i recently upgraded g++ in another directory though, how do i set that executable to be the default when i type g++ in bash (ubuntu) | 04:53 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: you can override the one in /usr/bin or create a symlink to the new one | 04:53 |
| rueben | hi everyone | 04:53 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: i must be missing some sources | 04:53 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, override ? i suppose this is not by aliasing it.. | 04:53 |
| dio_ | did any know someting about links web broser? | 04:54 |
| Palace_Chan | alias g++=somerandomdir/g++ | 04:54 |
| rueben | how r u doing | 04:54 |
| Digital_Warrior | well the good news is i am just about where i started tonight. but when i hit the gui login screen the txt is way small how do i change this | 04:54 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: sure, you could alias it as well. it depends if you want it only for your session | 04:54 |
| Angie | rueben: hi. | 04:54 |
| Angie | rueben: problem? | 04:54 |
| nevyn | StaticShock: try libcurl | 04:54 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, what if i would like it to be the default overall ? | 04:54 |
| dio_ | try to learn links web broser | 04:54 |
| ccew | Again i Ask does where can i find a good NES emulator | 04:55 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: then override (replace) the real file or symlink it like i said | 04:55 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: yeah, i have that | 04:55 |
| Pytlask | Does anybody know how to disable the changing of viewports when scrolling the mousewheel near the edge of the screen? | 04:55 |
| Digital_Warrior | nes.com | 04:55 |
| ccew | thats for linux rite | 04:55 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: i have "libcurl3" | 04:55 |
| joebodo | Ptylask it's in compiz settings - have you installed ccsm ? | 04:56 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: but to be honest, why would you need a custom g++? | 04:56 |
| Hilikus | did you recompile it? | 04:56 |
| nevyn | StaticShock: run dpkg -L on that | 04:56 |
| Hilikus | if not just find the updated package in a repo | 04:56 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, i rebuilt it because i need 4.3+ to support lambdas while my hardy repo only has 4.2.4 | 04:56 |
| dpreacher | any better options than denyhosts for blocking out bots trying 1200 times to get in my sshd? | 04:56 |
| nevyn | dpreacher: fail2ban | 04:57 |
| dio_ | flash on links web broser any idea | 04:57 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: doesn't amount to any source files either | 04:57 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: hardy? lol | 04:57 |
| ccew | ok i know this may sound dumb I'm a NOOB how do u install after downloading | 04:57 |
| dpreacher | nevyn...thanks checking it. | 04:57 |
| ccew | please | 04:57 |
| joebodo | dpreacher is your ssh out of date ? | 04:57 |
| tlf | I'm attempting to mount an exFAT external drive via usb | 04:57 |
| tlf | Everything I've attempted has failed, gparted sees the drive as 'unknown' | 04:57 |

| BlueDevil23 | Hey guys. I'm getting an error trying to use Wubi -- Windows - No Disk "Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 75 ....... " | 04:57 |
| dpreacher | joebodo ubuntu 8.10 | 04:57 |
| cesar_ | hi for all | 04:57 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, yea im rather outdated, figured it would be easier to do that than upgrade (last time i upgraded to feisty i think or from feisty it crahsed and was a hassle) | 04:57 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: i don't know if it will just work like that, but assuming it does just replace it then | 04:57 |
| StaticShock | i got /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.1.0, /usr/share/lintian/overrides/libcurl3, and /usr/share/doc | 04:57 |
| BlueDevil23 | I can click Cancel Try Again or Continue | 04:58 |
| joebodo | dpreacher all security updates applied ? | 04:58 |
| BlueDevil23 | but any of them, just bring up the same error | 04:58 |
| === cesar_ is now known as Guest20305 | ||
| dpreacher | yes...recently i did joebodo | 04:58 |
| dpreacher | anything released in aug? | 04:58 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: try to download the deb package directly | 04:58 |
| dpreacher | joebodo | 04:58 |
| nevyn | StaticShock: you need libcurl3-dev | 04:58 |
| joebodo | dpreacher ok - was just wondering why there are so many attempts - | 04:59 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: ah, i see. | 04:59 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, from like jaunty ? i was wondering about that, some people mentioned it could cripple my system unless i used pervu, but pervu doesnt recommend skipping more than 1 version ahead | 04:59 |
| dpreacher | looked like some bot trying every 5 secs. joebodo... need some rate limiter...so i enquired | 04:59 |
| nevyn | StaticShock: libcurl3 provides the binary library the -dev package has the headers. | 04:59 |
| joebodo | dpreacher same ip ? and do you have control over the firewall ? | 04:59 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: if you dl the package manually and dry-run it you will see if it will just update or if it needs 1million dependencies | 04:59 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: makes sense, i just don't have that in my sources list | 05:00 |
| Hilikus | and if it needs a bunch od dependencies i doubt just compiling yourself it will work | 05:00 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: so it doesn't come up | 05:00 |
| dpreacher | yeah...a bunch of ip's but 2 ips above 1000 attempts joebodo...yes i do have control over firewall | 05:00 |
| ccew | hey Digital...not gettin to that webpage | 05:00 |
| unixbocx | . | 05:00 |
| joebodo | dpreacher if ssh is for your personal use, you may want to setup the firewall to allow ssh connections only from specific ips - or even ip ranges | 05:00 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, yea then its likely gcc doesnt have a ton of dependencies | 05:01 |
| dpreacher | that's not a possibility, for certain reasons...so have to look for workarounds. joebodo. | 05:01 |
| Hilikus | anyone here uses lighting with thunderbird? | 05:01 |
| unixbocx | Alrighty I final got it..my website is up and running and i figured out it was not anything i was doing wrong with ubuntu or any of my configuration.. | 05:01 |
| unixbocx | here is the site joomlabocx.thruhere.net | 05:02 |
| StaticShock | looking at apt-get or apt-cache, can you tell which source offers the package? | 05:02 |
| dpreacher | how to make my apt-get have super cow powers? :( | 05:02 |
| StaticShock | i can check it from my desktop | 05:02 |
| Hilikus | dpreacher: use iptables limits for that | 05:02 |
| joebodo | dpreacher when running an open ssh port - i disable passwords completely and require a key file | 05:03 |
| StaticShock | nevyn: actually, i don't see libcurl3-dev even locally. do you see it? | 05:03 |
| axion | keyfiles are not the end-all be all.. | 05:03 |
| topher1120 | Hi all, newbie post apologies. Hope someone can help me back out a graphics driver I installed on Ubuntu desktop 9.0.4 | 05:03 |
| Hilikus | key files are inconevient | 05:03 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, how do i get a jaunty version of the gcc package to try and see if it will just update ? | 05:04 |
| dirty | can someone please help me ensure that my computer will boot off of my cd-rom drive and not into grub | 05:04 |
| joebodo | dpreacher the best method is to restrict by firewall - you can block specific countries, etc | 05:04 |
| Hilikus | if your are going to be connectin always from the same pcs which have the key files you might as well leave it passworded and block traffic from other ips | 05:04 |
| kevdog | StaticShock: sudo apt-cache search libcurl3 | 05:04 |
| dpreacher | wow specific countries...i want to block china | 05:04 |
| dirty | dpreacher: why china? | 05:05 |
| coz_ | anyone know what happened to the partnership with cononical and Parallels workistation /Desktop software? | 05:05 |
| dpreacher | main attacker | 05:05 |
| axion | I thinks it's better to use a different port | 05:05 |
| dpreacher | dirty | 05:05 |
| Hilikus | dpreacher: i've only had 1 try from china. just limit the number of attempts | 05:05 |
| Digital_Warrior | i had a lot of ssh atempts from china | 05:05 |
| Digital_Warrior | luckly i caught them before they got in | 05:05 |
| joebodo | Hilikus he said allowing access by ip was not an option | 05:05 |
| dpreacher | i had 1255 attempts. | 05:05 |
| dirty | WOW | 05:05 |
| dirty | can someone please help me ensure that my computer will boot off of my cd-rom drive and not into grub | 05:05 |
| Digital_Warrior | ya it is bad | 05:05 |
| axion | I changed my port an have had 0 attemps the last year | 05:06 |
| StaticShock | kevdog: right, and the confusing thing is that it offers me libcurl3 and the libcurl4-openssl-dev | 05:06 |
| dpreacher | and speaking of countries...are there any CLI tools to query geolocation services? | 05:06 |
| Digital_Warrior | sure take your hard drive out and hit it with a hammer | 05:06 |
| kevdog | Digital_Warrior: Use a firewall, rate limit the connection, use failtoban, or use a port knocker, or just config the sshd_config to allow certain users or groups | 05:06 |
| StaticShock | are those compatible? should i get the libcurl4 stuff? | 05:06 |
| Hilikus | joebodo: i didn't recommend that. i said key files are useless because if you have the keyfile you're in the same pcs every time | 05:06 |
| obesity | can someone help me? im trying to run compiz on my computer but im getting an error about a software rasterizer | 05:06 |
| === cesar_ is now known as Guest99282 | ||
| ccew | if i do get one how the hell do i install in | 05:06 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: look it up in packages.ubuntu | 05:06 |
| kevdog | StaticShock: I don't know -- download all of them | 05:06 |
| Digital_Warrior | kev i just blocked the china ip range killed almost all of them as this is a web server they where after | 05:06 |
| StaticShock | alright | 05:06 |
| Hilikus | i set my limit to 5 in 25 seconds | 05:07 |
| ccew | install it sorry | 05:07 |
| Hilikus | after that they get blocked | 05:07 |
| dpreacher | how come I am logged in to a machine via ssh and aptitude tells me ssh is not installed on that machine. | 05:07 |
| axion | most ssh-attacks are random, and all of them are pointed at port 22 | 05:07 |
| kevdog | Digital_Warrior: Looks like you are good | 05:07 |
| Palace_Chan | Hilikus, ugh firefox wont go to packages.ubuntu.com | 05:07 |
| topher1120 | help! Newbie installed ATI driver for my laptop, but graphics screwed up, can someone point me to the right files to change to fix? I assume it would be in /etc/X11, but not sure | 05:08 |
| axion | dpreacher, that's because it's called openssh | 05:08 |
| Digital_Warrior | i am so far it is just a pain in the ass keeping up with them. | 05:08 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: then fix that problem first and then fix your other problem | 05:08 |
| axion | or something | 05:08 |
| Hilikus | Palace_Chan: mm youre right, i think they're down. its not your problem | 05:09 |
| ccew | is GFCEW any good? | 05:09 |

| sigma_ | hello | 05:11 |
| ccew | hi | 05:11 |
| sigma_ | wondering if someone had a moment to help me install UNR on my Asus Aspire One | 05:11 |
| Frank83 | Greetings guys. I have a Wireless card that uses the RTL8187 module. It manages to connect but the Link Quality never goes over 15/100. I've read on the net that the module has some Issues, but I've failed to find a solution for it. Anyone knows something about it? (Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64. Kernel 2.6.28-14-generic) | 05:12 |
| sigma_ | I have it on a flash drive | 05:12 |
| dpreacher | Hilikus sorry wireless got dc on its own. | 05:12 |
| sigma_ | I guess my only real question is, how do I boot from the flash drive on an Aspire One? | 05:13 |
| ccew | later guys | 05:13 |
| bmoll8 | hey guys...I recently auto-updated my ubuntu ibex--and the wireless stopped working. Is this problem with the update affecting others? | 05:13 |
| Frank83 | sigma: I might be wrong but, isn't there a BIOS option for that? | 05:14 |
| sigma_ | meh, nevermind | 05:14 |
| sigma_ | figured it out | 05:14 |
| sigma_ | the BIOS was a little different than what I am used to | 05:14 |
| StaticShock | kevdog, nevyn: thanks. libcurl4-openssl-dev is what i needed. | 05:14 |
| scream | If I updated using -proposed and I change my mind, how do I revert? | 05:15 |

| scream | If I updated using -proposed and I change my mind, how do I revert back to stable? | 05:23 |
| dpreacher | nevyn, if you used fail2ban, just one thing I'd to ask is if there was a way to detect the frequency of attempts like 5 attempts in 25 seconds. there is a max retry option but nothing for time range. and no man page. | 05:23 |
| nevyn | dpreacher: no idea | 05:26 |
| sigma_ | ok, so one one can help? | 05:26 |
| ZhouYu | how to using vim to go to the end of file ? | 05:26 |
| uskill | ZhouYu, i always just hit :99999 or something | 05:27 |
| uskill | but i'm a vim novice | 05:27 |
| dpreacher | atleast one good thing is that it supports adding rule to iptables directly nevyn but do i refer to iptables documentation or fail2ban documentation to know what's iptables-multiports? | 05:27 |
| bazhang | sigma_, use unetbootin | 05:27 |

| myself | i already have compiz installed! | 06:37 |
| myself | its what makes teh windows bouncy | 06:38 |
| myself | :) | 06:38 |
| edbian | myself: I run it on a 1 monitor setup. Compiz is AWESOME :) | 06:38 |
| SGnewbie | Oh ya... just remember I got a problem with my USB devices... my USB power always on even after unmounted? Anyone knows why? I am using ubuntu 9.04 | 06:38 |
| edbian | myself: Compiz is installed by default | 06:38 |
| joebodo | 6 months later and i still wobble my windows for fun | 06:38 |
| leaf-sheep | SGnewbie: Seems normal. After all, the USB is still connected. | 06:38 |

| SGnewbie | leaf-sheep: but will it damage my USB device if plug out with system powering my USB.. | 06:39 |
| leaf-sheep | SGnewbie: If it's unmounted, you can plug it out. | 06:39 |

| phajas | Hi everyone, I've been having trouble with an atheros ar928x. I have a forum post with several relevant commands that I've run. If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Forum post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1234678 | 06:39 |
| kaiser10123 | any reason an nvidia card should have issues with resolution | 06:40 |
| joebodo | kaiser10123 its more of an issue with X determining your monitor | 06:40 |
| joebodo | kaiser10123 if it doesnt receive the information correctly, it offers a subset of resolutions | 06:40 |
| leaf-sheep | SGnewbie: For instance, I have two USB -- 1TB External Drive + my phone. This way, I can charge my phone. Other, to sync with my backup and such. Also, for media. When I'm done with them, I unmount them and unplug the cables. | 06:40 |
| Andorin | I need a way to raise the volume of an album of music tracks. I've had this problem before and someone had me download a terminal program, and a GUI for it, but I don't recall the name of the program or how to work it. Anyway, could someone tell me how to fix the volume of these tracks? | 06:40 |
| sigma_ | another thing, I can access the internet on this computer, it's just the updater that's getting choked | 06:41 |
| joebodo | kaiser10123 i fixed mine by manually entering the monitor info into the xorg.conf - then i could use the nvidia-settings to pick the proper resolution | 06:41 |
| leaf-sheep | sigma_: Use a different mirror if that's something of a big issue for your case. | 06:41 |
| SGnewbie | leaf-sheep: thanks... another thing is I cannot find inittab file to change runlevel | 06:41 |
| edbian | !upstart | 06:41 |
| ubottu | Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model. For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/ | 06:41 |
| kaiser10123 | joebodo: so what can i do to change it | 06:42 |
| joebodo | kaiser10123 i had to look up the edid (sp?) information for my monitor and add it to the xorg.conf | 06:42 |
| SGnewbie | ahhh ok thanks | 06:42 |
| cremaster | i'm trying to install apache and i keep getting this error: | 06:42 |

| cremaster | i dont see a file /usr/sbin/ab at all | 06:43 |
| leaf-sheep | SGnewbie: If you are trying to to shave down boot time by disabling services and such, check out !boot | 06:43 |
| kaiser10123 | joebodo: how do i get the info | 06:43 |
| lildevil2009 | hello | 06:43 |
| joebodo | kaiser10123 i googled for it | 06:44 |
| SGnewbie | leaf-sheep: u mean /boot? | 06:44 |
| leaf-sheep | !boot | SGnewbie | 06:44 |
| ubottu | SGnewbie: 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 | 06:44 |

| lildevil2009 | no | 06:45 |
| edbian | :) | 06:45 |
| joebodo | kaiser10123 yes - it's edid - so google for "edid <your monitor model>" | 06:45 |
| SGnewbie | btw, I m from Singapore... anyone from the island? | 06:45 |
| edbian | lildevil2009: Then let's talk in #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:45 |
| joebodo | the issue is that ubuntu does not have a good database for monitor edid info | 06:45 |
| joebodo | !edid | 06:46 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about edid | 06:46 |
| fynn | Hm | 06:46 |
| fynn | When I installed Jaunty on this drive, I defined the first partition to be the swap, with nothing coming before it. | 06:46 |
| fynn | Now "fdisk /dev/sda -ul" says the swap partitions begins in sector 63. | 06:46 |
| toothdecay | Hey all, just curious as to what all of you use for bittorrent? | 06:47 |
| fynn | Why, and can/should I do something about it? | 06:47 |
| edbian | fynn: Partition 1 is not necessarily sector 1 | 06:47 |
| error404notfound | i have around 177G of data on another system which is on megabit lan with my laptop. I have an external usb harddrive of 500G. Which would be fast? 1. Copy data from that system using rsync to the USB OR 2. Copy data from that system using rsync to my laptop? | 06:47 |
| fynn | edbian: I realize that, but shouldn't it be so? | 06:47 |
| edbian | toothdecay: transmission | 06:47 |
| fynn | edbian: iow, isn't it sub-optimal for it not to be so? | 06:47 |
| Cheeky | hi, i just did a sudo apt-get remove xchat --purge .. and it was kinda sucessful coz when i typed xchat .. it still works :S .. | 06:47 |
| edbian | fynn: Doesn't have to be. When the disk turns on the head has equal chance of being at any one of the sectors. Why should partition 1 be at sector 1? It's really arbitrary if you think about it. | 06:48 |
| fynn | Cheeky: you realize you're on Pidgin now, right? | 06:48 |
| c0l2e | how can I add getdeb to repository? and be used in apt-get ?? | 06:49 |
| Cheeky | fynn: yeah .. i came on this .. | 06:49 |
| fynn | Cheeky: maybe you uninstalled xchat, but the one that's "still working" is xchat2 or gnome-xchat? | 06:49 |
| edbian | fynn: http://www.dewassoc.com/kbase/hard_drives/hard_disk_sector_structures.htm | 06:49 |
| SGnewbie | can I confirm there is only 2 desktop for linux so far? GNOME & KDE. | 06:50 |
| nevyn | SGnewbie: not really | 06:50 |
| SGnewbie | nevyn: o.O wad else? | 06:50 |
| Cheeky | fynn: i re-installed it , hoping it would load all the server names like feenode etc etc, but still it does not do that how can i get it to do that '? | 06:50 |
| edbian | SGnewbie: You may not! http://xwinman.org/otherdesktops.php | 06:50 |
| nevyn | SGnewbie: xfce.. | 06:50 |
| c0l2e | how can I add getdeb to the repos? and be used in apt-get? | 06:51 |
| nevyn | SGnewbie: fvwm, enlightenment fvwm2 dswm etc etc etc | 06:51 |
| SGnewbie | ahh... my lecturer didnt tell us that... hehe | 06:51 |
| fynn | nevyn: enlightenment is a window manager, not a DE | 06:51 |
| nevyn | fynn: raster would disagree. | 06:52 |
| fynn | so is fvwm/2 :) | 06:52 |
| nevyn | fynn: it supports a bunch of the fdo stuff natively | 06:52 |
| fynn | edbian: thanks... it's just that I was told that ideally, the swap partition should begin as close as possible to sector 0. | 06:52 |
| edbian | fynn: Really? By who? I don't think the OS has any control over what sectors data is written in at all. | 06:53 |

| dmizer | GPL: i suggest not running the screen savers at all. they're buggy. | 06:54 |
| nevyn | your swap partition would ideally be in the middle of the disk (IF you knew anything about the physical cylinder layout which you don't because the drive LIES to you) | 06:54 |
| edbian | myself: #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:54 |
| fynn | SGnewbie: btw, there's a ton of variation you can get even just with those two. for instance, replacing the window manager under Gnome would result in radically different behavior and customizability. try Xmonad, for instance. | 06:54 |
| GPL | dmizer, as long as i am using a lightweight screensaver, Just a tiny dot in background moving , i dont wanna increase cpu usage myself ;) | 06:54 |
| nacho__ | how do i kill compiz? i dont know how does it apear at ps aux | 06:54 |
| dmizer | GPL: it's not about weight or cpu usage, it's about stability. | 06:55 |
| edbian | nacho__: Does it show up in "ps -A" or "ps -e" ?? | 06:55 |
| SGnewbie | yes.. before I forgotten... I set a 3D screensaver and it will activate in 5 mins... whenever it runs, my whole screen freeze and I cannot do anything... mouse and keyboard freeze too.. I tried remove in Preference->Screensaver... It freezes before I can do any change.. Is there a way to change it thru terminal or any other way to resolve? Anyone? | 06:56 |
| GPL | dmizer: ok, but i just want to try it 1 time, atleast i ll know , how to set gnome screensaver as wallpaper | 06:56 |
| dmizer | GPL: i can't help you with that. i can only suggest that you avoid them. | 06:57 |
| nacho__ | edbian: nope | 06:57 |
| GPL | dmizer : is it something against rules ? [shocked] | 06:57 |
| edbian | nacho__: Does it show in top? Are you sure it's running? :) | 06:57 |
| edbian | GPL: I think dmizer just doesn't know ;) | 06:58 |
| dmizer | GPL: nothing against any rules, i just have no idea how to do what you want to do. | 06:58 |
| dmizer | ;) | 06:58 |
| GPL | dmizer: ok i ll try myself | 06:58 |
| nacho__ | edbian: i think so, when i alt+tab shows my windows like compiz | 06:58 |
| edbian | nacho__: "sudo killall compiz" | 06:58 |

| SGnewbie | yes.. before I forgotten... I set a 3D screensaver and it will activate in 5 mins... whenever it runs, my whole screen freeze and I cannot do anything... mouse and keyboard freeze too.. I tried remove in Preference->Screensaver... It freezes before I can do any change.. Is there a way to change it thru terminal or any other way to resolve? Anyone? | 06:58 |

| edbian | Guest1327: It's not an issue with the distro. It's with the kernel. And Lexmark in my case. They have 0 support for linux. | 07:17 |
| edbian | !grub | 07:18 |
| ubottu | GRUB is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - GRUB how-tos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 07:18 |
| edbian | sleepy_cat: Look at the /GrubHowTo page ;) | 07:18 |
| dr3mro | plz how to check fregmentation level of my system | 07:18 |
| iceroot | skyler: right click on it, properties, background-settings | 07:18 |
| manish | edbian, Can u tell me how to password protect grub boot loader ? | 07:18 |
| edbian | dr3mro: ext3 systems have highly effecient algorithms that keep the partitions for getting fragmented :) | 07:19 |
| iceroot | dr3mro: ext2/3/4 dont have fragmentation | 07:19 |
| skyler | well im running compiz fusion... | 07:19 |
| dr3mro | iceroot, i know but i need to check % of fragmentation | 07:19 |
| skyler | and emerald theme manager | 07:19 |
| Cheeky | if i did a re-size of my hdd, to install another operating system, will it affect xchat ? | 07:19 |
| iceroot | skyler: does not matter | 07:19 |
| SGnewbie | who develop ext2/3/4 filesystem? | 07:19 |
| dr3mro | edbian, can you plz tell me how to know % of fragmentation | 07:19 |
| edbian | dr3mro: I don't know :( | 07:19 |
| edbian | dr3mro: To tell you the truth I don't even worry about it! :) | 07:20 |
| skyler | thanks, iceroot | 07:20 |
| edbian | manish: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and then run "update-grub" :) | 07:20 |
| iceroot | dr3mro: if there is no fragmentation, what you want to know in %? o%? | 07:20 |
| manish | edbian, Asper my knowledge every linux filesystem is always fragmented so, u need not to defrage it | 07:20 |
| skyler | it seemed like last time i tried that it didnt work | 07:20 |
| sleepy_cat | yes edbian i have done root(hd0,3) and setup(hd0,3) what i missed was setup (hd0) will put it in the MBR so will do that now and see | 07:20 |
| losher | dr3mro: why do you want to know the fragmentation of your filesystem. Is something not working? | 07:20 |
| fuzzybunny | hey everyone for some reason I am on the internet on my laptop but am unable to ping out to my brothers laptop, but if he pings me then ill be able to ping out and everything(samba, subversion) and other things will work fine. Does anyone know of anything that would cause this? | 07:20 |
| sleepy_cat | will buzz here if i encounter some problem | 07:20 |
| sleepy_cat | thanks :) | 07:21 |
| edbian | manish: ext3 is anti-fragmenting | 07:21 |
| edbian | sleepy_cat: Good luck! :) | 07:21 |
| sleepy_cat | thanks | 07:21 |
| Guest1327 | thank you all | 07:21 |
| dr3mro | edbian, i know that but i know linux can get fragmented after many years and will be never more than 1 or 2 % windows may reach 70 % but i need to show my friends on termainal that ext4 is less than 1% fragmented to prove linux superiority over windows 7 | 07:21 |
| Guest1327 | :) | 07:21 |
| manish | edbian, I mean in windows there is a command 'syskey' with that we can lock windows database So, in linux is there any facility to protect linux database | 07:21 |
| edbian | http://www2.lut.fi/~ilonen/ext3_fragmentation.html | 07:21 |
| Guest1327 | have a nice day | 07:21 |
| dr3mro | edbian, my friend is win7 fan | 07:21 |
| phajas | Hi everyone, I've been having trouble with an atheros ar928x. I have a forum post with several relevant commands that I've run. If anyone could help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Forum post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1234678 | 07:21 |
| edbian | dr3mro: "filefrag" | 07:22 |
| edbian | manish: You can password protect grub | 07:22 |
| error404notfound | how can i change notification settings such as location and time? | 07:22 |
| pnordico | hi | 07:22 |
| pnordico | could anyone here upload a default grub menu.lst to me? | 07:23 |
| dr3mro | edbian, filefrag check one file is there a way to check whole fs | 07:23 |
| manish | edbian, ok but, I want to know that before asking login id & password do it ask password for grub to start booting such in Windows by 'syskey' command | 07:23 |
| pnordico | anybody? | 07:23 |
| edbian | manish: Yeah. A grub password will prompt long before the login screen (the GDM) :) | 07:24 |
| edbian | dr3mro: IDK I'm looking | 07:24 |
| manish | edbian, 'syskey' is very much powerfull command for windows because u can brake password of users in windows very easyly but, if you don't know the password of syskey then you can't login at all (evey you want get the login screen until you give the password which you set by 'syskey')) | 07:24 |
| manish | edbian, ok i understood | 07:24 |
| skyler | iceroot, how about the menus under applications, places, and system? | 07:24 |
| edbian | manish: 1 linux passwords (assuming they're strong) will not be broken 2 grub password is the level you're looking for :) | 07:25 |
| adrian__ | hello folks. Id like to know if there is a way in ubuntu gnome, to run an application in "partial full screen mode", that is only vertically, or only horizontally full screen ("Part-screen) | 07:25 |
| pnordico | cmon | 07:25 |
| iceroot | skyler: depending on the theme | 07:25 |
| manish | edbian, thanks I am asking for the security of my company pc's | 07:25 |
| losher | edbian: I seem to recall fsck reporting overall fragmentation when it finishes checking, but if I were dr3mro's friend, it wouldn't convince me at all... | 07:25 |
| QOOK | [Q] How to view 'monitor EDID' in Ubuntu ? | 07:25 |
| pnordico | isn't there any ubuntuser here with the -14 kernel that could do that for me? | 07:26 |
| edbian | dr3mro: Perhaps the oodles of hits google reports can convince him | 07:26 |
| dr3mro | losher, fsck can't be used on mounted fs | 07:26 |
| edbian | manish: NP! :) | 07:26 |
| manish | edbian, :) | 07:26 |
| losher | pnordico: something wrong with your own menu.lst | 07:26 |
| QOOK | [Q] How to view 'monitor EDID' in Ubuntu ? | 07:26 |
| losher | dr3mro: no it can't be used on a mounted fs. Try getting him to change his religion instead. It'll be easier... | 07:27 |
| pnordico | losher, nothing, I just need a default one from ubuntu with the *-14 kernel | 07:27 |
| dr3mro | edbian, is there any bechmark too that work in both windows and linux to measure fs performance | 07:27 |
| losher | pnordico: sorry, I don't even know what a *-l4 kernel is... | 07:27 |
| dr3mro | losher, hahahahaaaa | 07:27 |
| edbian | dr3mro: I don't know. Search the repos? | 07:27 |
| dr3mro | edbian, thank you any way | 07:28 |
| adrian__ | does anybody know a way to run programs only either vertically or horizontally "full-screen"? | 07:28 |
| dr3mro | AFK | 07:28 |
| SGnewbie | ya.. wad is a -14 kernel? | 07:28 |
| adrian__ | gnome, metacity | 07:28 |
| pnordico | losher, 2.6.28-14-generic (that's better?) | 07:28 |
| edbian | dr3mro: Here is an excellent explanation of ext3 fs fragmentation: http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting | 07:28 |
| losher | pnordico: did menu.lst change from 2.6.24-24-generic? That's what I'm running... | 07:29 |
| iceroot | dr3mro: tell your friend to read the docs | 07:29 |
| iceroot | SGnewbie: 2.6.28-14 | 07:29 |
| losher | iceroot: yeah, that's a sure way to win a windows user over. Make 'em read docs... | 07:29 |
| pnordico | losher, hm... don't think so... may i have a look at it? ( pastebin.com ) | 07:29 |
| hipitihop | is there a way to setup an fstab mount entry which mounts an nfs share name based on the logged in user | 07:30 |
| iceroot | losher: let him use windows, after a while he is taking over without reading docs :) | 07:30 |
| losher | pnordico: I don't see why not. No warrany express or implied, though... | 07:30 |
| pnordico | losher, fine, I just need to take a look at it's content | 07:31 |
| edbian | hipitihop: You could write a script and have it run in "System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications" | 07:31 |
| savanny1976u | Hi, I'm debating between using Webmin or Ispconfig, can someone help me. Thanks.. | 07:32 |
| Xenogia | i personally use webmin and love it | 07:32 |
| Xenogia | i haven't really touched ispconfig | 07:32 |
| Xenogia | webmin is really easy to setup | 07:32 |
| losher | pnordico: have at it -- http://pastebin.com/f7dd7bb15 | 07:32 |
| QOOK | [Q] How to view the monitor EDID in ubuntu ? | 07:32 |
| iceroot | savanny1976u: both a bad, because the real config is done with ssh + vi. sometims a gui cant admin everything (or is overwriting something existing) | 07:33 |
| ziroday | !webmin > savanny1976u | 07:33 |
| ubottu | savanny1976u, please see my private message | 07:33 |
| losher | !webmin | 07:33 |
| ubottu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 07:33 |
| iceroot | savanny1976u: but if it must be a gui, then webmin is ok | 07:33 |
| Xenogia | ah really | 07:33 |
| iceroot | savanny1976u: ok, its not... | 07:33 |
| Xenogia | ill take that into consideration | 07:33 |
| losher | savanny1976u: see ubottu posting above... | 07:33 |

| Cheeky | hi , please is there a way to re-do a resize ing of my hdd ? | 07:34 |
| CoolAsAir | hello | 07:34 |
| Besogon | Cheeky: cfdisk may be | 07:34 |
| dr3mro_ | know its funny my brother a fan of windows vista hates windows 7 and says its not running games well hahhahaaaaa.... and i am now online and he cant have internet access using mobile phone in windows without nokia pc suite and i can just plugin my mob and go online :) ubuntu is gr8 | 07:34 |
| Cheeky | Besogon: ? | 07:34 |
| ziroday | Cheeky: sure, take the livecd and go to System > Adminstration > Partition Editor | 07:35 |
| ziroday | Cheeky: however remember to backup as it is a dangerous process | 07:35 |
| losher | Cheeky: are you asking to resize a partition? Doesn't matter if it's been resized before... | 07:35 |
| CoolAsAir | i always get error after retarting my ubuntu. i/o error, dev 0 ,what is it mean | 07:35 |
| metacube | Ok | 07:35 |
| savanny1976u | I find a lots of support from webmin users, video and books. I can't find enough with Ispconfig . I think is the way to go..Thanks everyone.. | 07:35 |

| losher | pnordico: what are you going to do? | 07:38 |
| pnordico | losher, hm... | 07:38 |
| Xenogia | so realistically you need another system purely running ebox | 07:38 |
| pnordico | losher, testing some stuff... | 07:38 |
| pnordico | losher, like... hm... how could I say... | 07:38 |
| losher | pnordico: fine, you don't have to tell me. I just thought I might be able to help.... | 07:38 |
| pnordico | losher, I'm trying to make the ubuntu kernel works into other distro | 07:39 |
| pnordico | just testing | 07:39 |
| pnordico | :P | 07:39 |
| keaton | Hey, can someone help me with some bootloader problems? I installed Ubuntu alongside Vista but when I pick it on the GRUB list, it just drops back to the BIOS. | 07:39 |

| pnordico | that kind of stuff | 07:39 |
| sporkboy | double question: what's the difference between convert's -resize and -geometry? and, is there an easy way to resize only images over a certain size? (like, more than 800px high) | 07:39 |
| losher | pnordico: it probably won't work, but if you want to try it, go ahead... | 07:40 |
| pnordico | losher, probably... | 07:40 |

| Xenogia | i clicked on download and it came up as an .iso file | 07:42 |
| Xenogia | went to the website | 07:42 |
| Besogon | Cheeky: cfdisk command can resize hdd. | 07:42 |
| Xenogia | or is it in the repositories | 07:42 |
| DaZ | there is an iso on their webpage | 07:42 |
| sporkboy | DaZ: wanna be a little more specific? | 07:42 |

| DaZ | sporkboy: bash script will solve your problem | 07:43 |
| Xenogia | yeah realised, installing now | 07:43 |
| losher | Cheeky: usually a failed resize will trash a partition rather than make files go missing. In any case, I think they are unlikely to magically reappear if you re-resize... | 07:44 |
| sporkboy | DaZ: what would I call to get the height of the jpg? | 07:45 |

| rootlinuxusr | sudo aptitude remove pidgin && aptitude install pidgin? | 08:20 |

| th0r | parapanghelescu1: the configurations you have saved should be safe...just Remove pidgin and reinstall...do not Completely Remove it | 08:20 |

| parapanghelescu1 | th0r > how do I do that ? ...not completely remove ? | 08:22 |
| eli__ | losher : http://paste.ubuntu.com/250691/ | 08:23 |

| === dpreacher2 is now known as dpreacher | ||
| megamanx1978 | reading stuff about the dock | 08:25 |
| eli__ | Do I try "apt-get install dovecot-postfix"? | 08:25 |
| eli__ | 1more time? | 08:25 |
| th0r | parapanghelescu1: they might be in one of two places...either ~/.purple or ~/.local | 08:25 |
| megamanx1978 | The terminal stuff confuses me | 08:26 |
| losher | eli__: mkdir /etc/dovecot ; touch /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf ; apt-get install dovecot-postfix | 08:26 |
| th0r | megamanx1978: well, install the dock and run it from the menu. I think everything can be modified from the dock...no real need for the terminal | 08:27 |
| eli__ | "touch /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf" means create dovecot.conf file? | 08:27 |

| Tamnakz | Can anyone help with getting my pc to boot to usb to install ubuntu? | 08:28 |
| indus | Tamnakz: hi i can | 08:28 |
| megamanx1978 | Btw I dont see it in the menu | 08:29 |
| Tamnakz | indus, can I pm? | 08:29 |
| indus | Tamnakz: right now you are using the usb disk creator i believe? | 08:29 |
| indus | Tamnakz: no pm,i help here | 08:29 |
| th0r | megamanx1978: I am using xfce and it is in the Accessories menu here | 08:29 |
| indus | Tamnakz: is that ok? | 08:30 |
| skyler | so is cairo dock faster?? | 08:30 |
| th0r | megamanx1978: or open a terminal and type 'cairo-dock &' without the quotes | 08:30 |
| skyler | or use up less resources rather | 08:30 |
| Tamnakz | in my advanced bios I have four different usb boot options: USB-FDD USB-ZIP USB-CDROMAND USB-HDD | 08:30 |
| megamanx1978 | Right now I am in gnome let me log out and switch to xfce ok? | 08:30 |
| Tamnakz | It works, I just have trouble keeping up with the other conversations. | 08:30 |
| GPL | hot to increase the dpi for fonts ? | 08:30 |
| th0r | skyler: I don't use either...so don't know. I looked at using cairo dock and then decided the panel does the same thing | 08:31 |
| GPL | how* | 08:31 |
| Tamnakz | No matter how I set it, it won't see the usb drive and boot to it, it'll refer to the HD because it sees no other bootable item | 08:31 |
| eli__ | losher : I copy and paste dovecot.conf file from internet example files | 08:31 |
| eli__ | and | 08:31 |
| eli__ | now | 08:31 |
| eli__ | i executed apt-get install dovecot-postfix | 08:31 |
| eli__ | package coonfiguration started | 08:32 |
| megamanx1978 | Brb | 08:32 |
| eli__ | but I don't know this setting contents | 08:32 |
| skyler | i see. im perfectly fine with AWN though. in the panel however, you dont get the same effecsts through compiz as you would with AWN | 08:32 |
| binarystar | does anyone Monitoring virtual domains' bandwidth on a Linux box???? So here's my question, is it possible to break down the traffic use by> IP coming off that single Linux machine? | 08:32 |
| th0r | skyler: since I dont run compiz that isn't an issue for me | 08:32 |
| eli__ | now My linux sees window have "Modified configuration files" title | 08:33 |
| skyler | yeah true | 08:33 |
| eli__ | losher : http://paste.ubuntu.com/250693/ | 08:33 |
| GPL | anyone having an idea about how to change or increase the dpi .. so that to make fonts smaller and better ? | 08:34 |
| losher | eli__: install the package maintainers version | 08:34 |
| ziroday | GPL: you can do so in the appearances dialouge | 08:34 |
| eli__ | yes i did. | 08:34 |
| Tamnakz | Indus: Still around? | 08:34 |
| th0r | binarystar: yes. If you want traffic by interface gkrellm can do that, if you have several IP addresses assigned to a single nic then you need snmp. If you are talking about traffic from different IP addresses being routed to/through that computer than you need something like bigbrother or whatsupgold | 08:34 |
| eli__ | done. | 08:34 |
| siddharth | # | 08:34 |
| GPL | ziroday: Appearance -> Fonts : it changes the size, i want to change the dpi | 08:34 |
| indus | Tamnakz: hi | 08:34 |
| siddharth | #netbeans | 08:34 |
| ziroday | GPL: go to details | 08:34 |
| indus | Tamnakz: sorry i didnt read what u said | 08:35 |
| hateball | I have an avi file, that I want to convert to a ogg/theora file. I cant seem to find an option for theora with mencoder. What do I need to use? | 08:35 |
| GPL | ziroday: thanks, thats what i was looking for | 08:35 |
| Tamnakz | indus: did you see the rest of the info/question? | 08:35 |
| Tamnakz | ok | 08:35 |
| indus | Tamnakz: could you use my nick in your reply | 08:35 |
| losher | eli__: all done? | 08:35 |
| indus | Tamnakz: what is the problem? | 08:35 |
| th0r | hateball: ffmpeg might do it | 08:35 |
| Tamnakz | indus: it gives me four USB optoins under advanced bios for boot devices: USB-FDD USB-ZIP USB-CDROMAND USB-HDD but no matter how I order it it will not boot from usb | 08:35 |
| disappearedng | Hey I have a bunch of speeches that are pretty old, but ripped from vhs. How should I go about improving the quality and reducing the noise? | 08:36 |
| eli__ | losher : http://paste.ubuntu.com/250695/ | 08:36 |
| hateball | th0r: I thought ffmpeg was only for audio, hmmm | 08:36 |
| indus | Tamnakz: how did u create the usb disk | 08:36 |
| eli__ | is this the end? | 08:36 |
| hateball | th0r: Never mind, I'm an idiot... I'll check. | 08:36 |
| th0r | hateball: sorry...misread...though you said mp3 | 08:36 |
| Tamnakz | indus: system - administration - create usb startup. I have a laptop running 8.1 and am trying to install on my PC, no optical drives available though, ONLY USB | 08:36 |
| indus | Tamnakz: that sucks.Install unetbootin then create the usb bootable disk,it works 100 % everytime | 08:36 |
| th0r | hateball: too early (or late) for me | 08:36 |
| indus | Tamnakz: usb startup sucks !!!!!!!! | 08:37 |
| Tamnakz | for the initial installation? | 08:37 |
| indus | Tamnakz: unetbootin is the best option,download from their ppa on launchpad | 08:37 |
| eli__ | losher : i want to install and setting package about dovecot-imapd and dovecot-pop3d | 08:37 |
| losher | eli__: yes. the install is done. Now you have to configure: sudo dpkg-reconfigure postfix; sudo dpkg-reconfigure dovecot-postfix | 08:37 |
| indus | Tamnakz: the usb startup doesnt properly create a bootable disk, | 08:37 |
| Tamnakz | indus: the PC does not have internet access, howeever I do it, it HAS to be done via usb. How can I create a bootable disk? | 08:38 |
| th0r | hateball: if the output file is ogm then handbrake seems to have that ability. I use it to convert avi to mp4 for my ipod | 08:38 |
| megamanx1978 | Ok I am back now using xfce | 08:38 |
| dpreacher | if you used fail2ban, can you simply specify port=xyz in a jail config, where xyz is a non-standard port for a certain service for which the jail is being configured? | 08:38 |
| Tamnakz | Indus: My brother had made one for me before he was deployed again, but it was delelted via emp. lol literally | 08:38 |
| indus | Tamnakz: hmm well,then get to a pc with internet and download unetbootin,also available for windows | 08:38 |
| megamanx1978 | Ty I am able to get the dock up | 08:39 |
| blognewb_ | hi guys do i have to manually type in the spawning in bash all the time? it just died again but it comes up if i run spawn-fcgi via bash | 08:39 |
| Tamnakz | indus: you don't know of anyway to boot a pc with a blank harddrive to ubuntu, and install? | 08:39 |
| indus | Tamnakz: can you do that? | 08:39 |
| th0r | megamanx1978: right click on the dock to modify the dock and contents | 08:39 |
| eli__ | losher : http://paste.ubuntu.com/250697/ | 08:39 |

| BloodRoses | i'm having an issue installing Ubuntu, I get the language selection screen and the menu, but when I try to select "Install Ubuntu" i just get a warning dialogue that says "install". anyone know why this would happen? | 08:41 |
| Tamnakz | indus/libtech: I'm trying to boot/install ubuntu from a flash drive onto a PC with a blank hard drive. I have no access to cd or dvd drives, only USB. I have internet on a laptop, but not on the PC | 08:41 |
| indus | Tamnakz: and this flash drive wont boot? is this the same flash drive you booted from before? | 08:42 |
| libtech | Tamnakz: are you able to boot from the flash drive? | 08:42 |
| Tamnakz | yes, but with a different program. I cannot get it to boot to the flash drive | 08:42 |
| libtech | did you correctly configure boot priority in BIOS? | 08:42 |
| Tamnakz | I used ubuntu on my laptop via system-administration-create bootable usb and installed a proper 8.1 iso to install | 08:42 |
| eli__ | losher: what am i do now? | 08:42 |
| Tamnakz | yes, Bios gives me four options: USB-FDD USB-ZIP USB-CDROMAND USB-HDD, and none of them will cause it to boot from USB properly | 08:43 |
| indus | Tamnakz: the problem is with the usb flash drive | 08:43 |
| Tamnakz | I hvae options of first, second and third boot order, no matter what way I set it up, it won't se it | 08:43 |
| indus | Tamnakz: iam asking, have you booted with this usb before | 08:43 |
| Tamnakz | yes. | 08:43 |
| megamanx1978 | The main site is in french is there a english link | 08:43 |
| indus | Tamnakz: i mean, have you booted with this same boot image | 08:44 |
| Tamnakz | no | 08:44 |
| megamanx1978 | Btw thank you for the help | 08:44 |

| ^Phantom^ | xkmame should be called xklame | 08:44 |
| ^Phantom^ | it don't do shit | 08:44 |
| Tamnakz | this is a fresh boot image, I created the startup with ubunto, used the file (veriefied good) ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso . it is a new boot image | 08:45 |
| th0r | ^Phantom^: we made it that way just for idiots | 08:45 |
| indus | Tamnakz: the boot image is the problem,usb startup doesnt do a good job with it | 08:45 |
| eli__ | losher: yes, I try it thank you | 08:45 |
| ^Phantom^ | really? | 08:45 |
| indus | Tamnakz: which machine are you typing this from? | 08:45 |
| indus | Tamnakz: u have internet here | 08:46 |
| Tamnakz | a laptop with ubuntu | 08:46 |
| indus | Tamnakz: so download the unetbootin software to this system,copy to that machine then create a bootable | 08:46 |
| indus | !info unetbootin | 08:46 |

| ^Phantom^ | Well, i've put the fu***** rom files and zip file in like 7 different directories and the stupid emulator is too stupid to realize the roms and shitload of files are there and run them. Now i have a big fucking mess of files! | 08:47 |
| ^Phantom^ | :( | 08:47 |
| hateball | th0r: ffmpeg2theora seems to do the trick | 08:47 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: Please mind your language. | 08:47 |
| Tamnakz | indus: how am I going to do that? It's a machine with a freshly formatted HD, and no optical drives? I can't do ANYTHING if I can't boot from USB? | 08:48 |
| ^Phantom^ | Well, I'm really angry right now. | 08:48 |
| indus | Tamnakz: aargh | 08:48 |
| Tamnakz | do you see my dillemma? | 08:48 |
| ^Phantom^ | My friend just wasted an hour helping me find the rom, and now it doesn't work! | 08:48 |
| BloodRoses | ^Phantom^: eloquence and constructiveness go a long way. | 08:48 |
| indus | Tamnakz: hmm without an OS,the flash drive wont work i suppose | 08:48 |
| Tamnakz | it will, boot has nothing to do with the OS, hardwired w' the bios | 08:49 |
| ^Phantom^ | and when i try to add a directory with the rom in it, it says that the DIRECTORY isn't executalbe | 08:49 |
| indus | Tamnakz:i mean,if you copy unetbootin over to the pc then create bootable | 08:49 |
| matt2154 | Can anyone tell me where to find the "URW Bookman L" font file? It appears in OOo and Inkscape. | 08:49 |
| indus | Tamnakz: but thats not possible since the hdd has no OS | 08:49 |
| Tamnakz | unetbootin, what is it? | 08:49 |
| ^Phantom^ | lol @ executable folder concept | 08:50 |
| th0r | ^Phantom^: everyone knows directories in linux have to be executable. | 08:50 |
| indus | Tamnakz: its a software like usb startup for creating bootable drives for an linux os,it also automatically downloads iso's | 08:50 |
| th0r | jeez | 08:50 |
| indus | Tamnakz: fedora,ubuntu wahtever , also works in windows | 08:50 |

| indus | Tamnakz: yes that s what it does | 08:51 |
| ruby_on_tails | hello | 08:51 |
| Tamnakz | will it be any better than the bootable included in 8.10? | 08:51 |
| indus | Tamnakz: aah i mean install it on this pc,create a bootable, then take it to there | 08:52 |
| indus | Tamnakz: its much better | 08:52 |
| ruby_on_tails | hello | 08:52 |
| matt2154 | hipitihop: You cannot. You should set up an fstab entry that maps server:/homes/ | 08:52 |
| ^Phantom^ | why does kxlame show a list of arcade games if it can't fucking run any of them? | 08:52 |
| ruby_on_tails | i just installed ubuntu 9.04 | 08:52 |

| Tamnakz | two more minutes? | 08:56 |
| Tamnakz | will I sitll use the iso file with unetbootin? | 08:56 |
| matt2154 | hipit: OK, so you probably understand that when you mount something via NFS, it behaves just like it is local | 08:56 |
| matt2154 | hipit: So, in my fstab, I actually mount nfs-server:/exports/homes/ /home | 08:57 |

| BloodRoses | I'm having an issue installing Ubuntu, I get the language selection screen and the menu, but when I try to select "Install Ubuntu" I just get a warning dialogue that says "install" without actually doing anything. :\ | 09:01 |
| Flannel | ^Phantom^: And that gives you the right to be abusive why? | 09:01 |
| BloodRoses | ^Phantom^: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines it's a good read. | 09:02 |
| matt2154 | hipit: Yes, that's what I'm saying. What you do is mount /homes somewhere, and then set the permissions on it's sub directories so that each user can only access their own subdir. | 09:02 |
| ^Phantom^ | I've read it many times. | 09:02 |
| ^Phantom^ | I've never had 900 error messages all at once before. | 09:02 |
| BloodRoses | it would not appear so. | 09:02 |
| ^Phantom^ | BloodRoses, want to VNC to my screen and watch the errors? | 09:03 |
| matt2154 | hipit: If you need those subdirs to be easily accessibly by your users, put a symlink in each user's homedir that points to their NAS dir | 09:03 |
| Madpilot | BloodRoses, one of the other entries on the install menu is "Check this CD" or similar - runs an md5sum - have you tried that to rule out a bum disc? | 09:03 |
| matt2154 | hipit: For example: ln -s /mnt/nas_homes/user1 /home/user1/my_nas_dir/ | 09:04 |
| BloodRoses | Madpilot: i sure have, it creates a similar warning dialogue that says "checkcd" or something like that. i've even re-burnt the disc and tried the alternate/text CD. | 09:04 |
| ^Phantom^ | brb | 09:04 |
| Madpilot | BloodRoses, strangeness. does md5sum on the ISO before you burn it check out? | 09:05 |
| matt2154 | hipit: do elaborate on what you are trying to accomplish, and I'll give you a solution that makes sense | 09:05 |
| hipitihop | matt2154: I think I follow just having a go now but mounting /homes/ although it does not cause error when I remount via mount -a, it is not showing the right contents. | 09:05 |
| matt2154 | hipit: what exactly is your mount command? | 09:06 |
| hipitihop | matt2154: but that may be becuase other setting on the fstab perhaps now | 09:06 |

| lding | This is the first time I login IRC. | 09:07 |
| Myrtti | lding: welcome | 09:07 |
| BloodRoses | i should mention, however, that i've used the disc to install on another machine. but it could still be screwy i suppose. | 09:07 |
| matt2154 | hipit: I would try doing your mounts manually first - once you've got it right, then put it in fstab... | 09:07 |

| mr_lou | Hello. Running Ubuntu v8.04 here. Can I update to v9.04 via a CD without problems, or is it best to install v9.04 "clean"? | 09:10 |
| rww | !mintsupport | iwobbles | 09:10 |
| ubottu | iwobbles: Linux Mint is not a supported derivative of Ubuntu, please seek support in #linuxmint on irc.spotchat.org | 09:10 |
| matt2154 | rww: hilarious url. bookmarked :) | 09:10 |
| lding | clear | 09:11 |
| rww | mr_lou: 1) The supported upgrade path for 8.04 to 9.04 requires you to upgrade to 8.10 first. 2) If you want to update using a CD, you'll need an alternate CD, not the Live CD. 3) It's probably easier to install clean. | 09:11 |
| DJones | mr_lou: Its not recommended to update from 8.04 to 9.04 directly because it can cause problems, you'd need to upgrade to 8.10 and then to 9.04 to avoid problems | 09:11 |
| iwobbles | mm only chanserv goes to that channel ,,its alaways empty | 09:11 |
| BloodRoses | Madpilot: the sum matches :( | 09:11 |
| mr_lou | Dammit. | 09:11 |
| rww | iwobbles: It's on the irc.spotchat.org server. Did you connect to that server first? | 09:11 |
| iwobbles | nope I just used irc.ubuntu.com I think | 09:12 |

| mr_lou | DJones, rww mkay then.... what's the best way of upgrading then? I can't seem to find anywhere of doing it within Ubuntu, so I need to manually download something, right? | 09:12 |

| o_portista17 | hy, i have a BIG problem, my printer, wont print....the scan works, i've tested outside linux, and it worked, but here, it wont print...it makes the normal noise, but the paper comes out clean...HP Deskjet F4272 | 11:02 |
| bryan_ | what do most people do when they have a device they cant get drivers for in linux? | 11:03 |
| ziroday | bryan_: return the device | 11:04 |
| frogzoo | bryan_: buy a different device ;) | 11:04 |
| bryan_ | ziroday: ah, i see. | 11:04 |
| Slart | bryan_: the only other option is to a write a driver yourself.. and that's.. non-trivial | 11:05 |
| firice20 | i just got ubuntu, what can you do with it? sincei know nothing about it | 11:06 |
| rski | firice20: what do you want to do | 11:06 |
| Slart | firice20: well.. what do you do with an OS.. run applications.. | 11:06 |
| bryan_ | Slart: is it hard to do?... write a driver? | 11:07 |
| firice20 | ok hehe dumb question Xp | 11:07 |
| Slart | bryan_: it's always hard to write efficient, stable code.. and that's really what you want to do with a driver | 11:07 |
| bryan_ | Slart: are drivers written in c++? | 11:08 |
| firice20 | here's a better one | 11:08 |
| Slart | bryan_: it might also take a lot of testing, reverse engineering and so on.. it's not something you do on a weekend | 11:08 |
| rski | bryan_: usually linux drivers are C or asm. | 11:08 |
| Slart | bryan_: sure.. you could use c++ | 11:08 |
| bryan_ | Slart: i figured there was some small detail i was missing ;) | 11:08 |
| bryan_ | rski: thanks. | 11:09 |
| frogzoo | bryan_: c | 11:09 |
| firice20 | what features does ubuntu have that other other os doesn't have? | 11:09 |
| syntax | Freedom | 11:09 |
| bryan_ | firice20: open source | 11:09 |
| Slart | bryan_: it depends a little on what the driver is supposed to do.. sometimes the driver itself doesn't do a lot... sometimes it has to be fast to let whatever hardware it's written for work at it's best (graphics drivers) | 11:09 |
| spud|work | firice20: do you mean software features? i knew somebody would say "freedom" and "open source". | 11:09 |
| frogzoo | firice20: an logo that's predominantly orange? | 11:09 |
| spud|work | what do you mean by features (assuming you dont care about the ideology behind it all) | 11:10 |
| firice20 | XD | 11:10 |
| firice20 | ok thanks | 11:10 |
| StFS | Hi. Is there a repository for Firefox 3.1 for Hardy (8.04)? | 11:10 |
| Slart | firice20: I would say that being open source is pretty unique if you come from a windows world | 11:10 |
| firice20 | yea | 11:10 |
| bryan_ | firice20: you are asking a very broad question. its like tell me about tv. do you start with channels, good shows or the tv itself... etc | 11:11 |
| firice20 | i like it | 11:11 |
| Bhavesh2177 | anyone know how to disable PEN drive mount? | 11:11 |
| BriGuy | you mean how to unmount it? | 11:11 |
| BriGuy | you could try the umount command | 11:11 |
| zvacet | StFS: you can try with http://ubuntuzilla.com/ | 11:11 |
| syntax | The fact you can sit there and look in a terminal and goto a file thats so deep into your harddrive and moveing it onto the desktop with a command is amazeing..Even tho people use to it but still | 11:12 |
| Slart | firice20: apart from that there aren't any big differences between linux/windows and so on from a users perspective. | 11:12 |
| Myrtti | firice20: try asking in #ubuntu-offtopic | 11:12 |
| Bhavesh2177 | i want to prevent normal user to mount pen drive | 11:12 |
| Myrtti | moving on | 11:12 |
| firice20 | hmm ok srry about my questions hehe | 11:12 |
| Bhavesh2177 | BriGuy: Disable automount of pen drive | 11:13 |
| BriGuy | so anyone know if I can use grep to output a line that contains a string AND just the next line? | 11:13 |
| Slart | BriGuy: yes | 11:13 |
| Slart | BriGuy: or sed might work too | 11:13 |
| Myrtti | BriGuy: "grep -A 1" | 11:14 |
| BriGuy | thanks | 11:14 |
| BriGuy | Bhavesh2177, not sure on your questions | 11:14 |
| Bhavesh2177 | BriGuy: if normal user attache pen drive to USB port it gets autometically mounted, so i want to restrict the automount. | 11:15 |
| BriGuy | Bhavesh2177, yeah sorry I understand the question..not sure on the solution :) | 11:15 |

| ReX0r | whenever some1 comes online (or when a new song is started) it appears in my upper right corner. When I'm watching something (in say, VLC, fullscreen), this appears and slows down video playback. I either have to disable eye-candy (nothing instead of normal) and lose ability to alt-tab or change pidgin settings (I usually don't have music playing during video). But where in pidgin can I change this setting? | 11:23 |

| grawity | ReX0r: The popups are displayed by notify-osd. | 11:23 |

| grawity | ReX0r: Yeah, look for libnotify in Pidgin's Plugins. | 11:24 |
| grouse | @kipi: oof - French :p, can you pastebin your sources.list | 11:25 |
| grawity | ReX0r: Also, the compizconfig-settings-manager app can let you fine-tune the eye-candy instead of just choosing none/some/a lot. | 11:25 |

| paul68 | kosh`: I only have terminal on my server | 11:58 |
| bret | resno, I have just recently switched from fedora to ubuntu, but I was not able to operate anything Linux could not see in a virtual environment | 12:00 |
| resno | bret: i am asking about virtulizing windows inside of ubunut | 12:00 |
| grouse | @Paul68: I'm not sure you can modify the base console resolution. I would suggest running some form of xserver with a terminal running in that | 12:01 |
| grawity | VirtualBox supports both Windows and Linux, as both host and guest. | 12:01 |
| tobylane | the program generally deals with that | 12:01 |
| tobylane | like vmware makes all network connections come from a product called vmware | 12:01 |
| tobylane | so no, get ndiswrapper | 12:02 |

| kmrc | maxagaz: Xorg -version | 12:03 |

| zetheroo | when attempting to share a folder from my USB HDD on the network a message appears in relation to error 255 ... the instructions is to basically get the admin to edit smb.conf to allow this share to occur ... imo this needs to be re-thought ... or is there a samba GUI that will allow this setting to be changed? | 12:05 |
| grawity | zetheroo: system-config-samba may help | 12:05 |
| bret | also swat | 12:05 |
| zetheroo | grawity: have you ever encountered this error? | 12:06 |
| zetheroo | bret: swat? ... where you talking to me? | 12:06 |
| bret | sorry yes zetheroo. samba web administration tool. You can run it locally or over any network connection to configure samba | 12:07 |
| zetheroo | bret: ok thanks | 12:07 |
| zetheroo | I still think this needs to change ... it doesn't help the migration to Linux to have this stuff pop-up on noobs .... I have no issues with editing smb.conf ... but I have been using Linux for 3 years ... if a person was trying Linux a out and ran into this it would really be frustrating ... | 12:09 |
| ace | Can someone help? I installed Ubuntu 9.04 on an Acer Aspire 3641wxmi laptop and I'm not getting any sound | 12:10 |
| psycho_oreos | zetheroo, there's a thing called samba-swat | 12:10 |
| resno | ace: this is a common issue, try first adusting the volume. if nothing plug in headphones and see if you have sound. | 12:10 |
| richardcavell | Can anyone tell me what I can do to bind a function key so that it will kill the process hl.exe (which is running under wine)? | 12:11 |
| zetheroo | psycho_oreos: is that what bret was talking about? | 12:11 |
| troythetechguy | I need to move a bunch of files to a 2nd HDD, but I need to zip the files so they'll fit on HDD #2. However, I prefer not to zip the files I'm leaving on HDD #1. Using pipes, is there a way to zip the file on the fly before it's copied to HDD#2, but leaving the original unzipped? | 12:11 |
| ace | resno: I tried adjusting the volume already. I'll try headphones and let you know | 12:11 |
| bret | zetheroo, I agree, however Linux has come such a long way in the past 4 or 5 years. I can only imagine where it will be in another few | 12:11 |
| tobylane | troy yes, output file on the second one | 12:12 |
| psycho_oreos | zetheroo, don't know I wasn't really following the conversation.. but there's many other tools.. webmin is another | 12:12 |
| tobylane | even guis do that | 12:12 |
| zetheroo | bret: I agree fully with you ... it just seems like a GUI for controling something as common as ones network shares environment would have been bundled in a distro like Ubuntu ... | 12:13 |
| ace | resno: Headphones work. Why wouldn't the speakers work? | 12:14 |
| resno | zetheroo: bret the issue is that the majority of things inside linux require configuration of a file | 12:14 |
| resno | ace: no idea. i have two laptops, one works the other doesnt | 12:14 |
| bret | yeah you would think. The best distro I have found as far as running a network server imo is Suse Enterprise server. Has a very nice gui for everything... Ubuntu server may have similar gui's but I have nott looked at it | 12:14 |
| kindofabuzz | bret, server does not have a gui, no need | 12:15 |
| ace | resno: So it just may be that I wont be able to use internal speakers? | 12:15 |
| wht | ini | 12:15 |
| zetheroo | resno: of course ... but these configurations can be done through a GUI ... and in the case of Ubuntu Desktop they need to be done that way .. | 12:15 |
| wht | ih | 12:15 |
| wht | i | 12:15 |
| resno | ace: thats been my experince. and i have tried getting it to work and have never been able to make it | 12:16 |

| cannonball | Good morning, I need a little help understanding something regarding the sequence of services starting at bootup. I'm a long time Mdk/RH/CentOS user, so the way things work on Ubuntu are foreign to me. | 13:08 |
| ace | bryan: I googled it and found it on this site.... http://smurfonspreadsheets.wordpress.com/2009/07/04/acer-aspire-one-ubuntu-9-04-sound-hell/ | 13:08 |
| djisamsoe | pilkanozna: check the file ~/.bash_history to see the history of your terminal commands | 13:08 |

| cannonball | My home directory is an nfs mount, my user is local. When the machine boots up, I get the gui login screen. I can login, but then it complains about not being able to find things. The reason is because it has not mounted the nfs /home yet. I kill X, switch over to tty1, login there, and part of the login process it starts nfs-common and at that point mounts /home. | 13:10 |
| cannonball | I'll google for documents that Dr-Willis-TCL mentioned. Is there an relatively straightforward way to move nfs forward in the boot process so that it occurs before xdm initializes? | 13:11 |
| ace | bryan: did you have the same problem? | 13:11 |
| manish | ubottu: I have install a local printer HP 5100 (the package installed through synaptic package manager) after that I had switched off the printer as i din't needed but, when I started it again the printer is not installed so, where it may gone ? | 13:11 |

| bryan | ace: soluttion not working yet... | 13:12 |
| Dr_Willis | cannonball: the s##service name. the ## is the order they start.. the #'s mean somthing. but i forget what.. xdm/gdm is normally one of last service anyway. OR you could disable gdm/xdm/kdm and just launch it from rc.local - perhaps put a 10 sec 'sleep' befor you launch xdm | 13:12 |

| th0r | Wast3d2009: 2.6 is in the jaunty repo, which means you can download it from packages.ubuntu.com. But since you are runniing hardy I would probably opt for compiling my own from source instead. But if you haven't done that before, you might want to try the package first | 13:41 |
| myname_ | is there a way to see the installed packages with the live cd? | 13:41 |

| richardcavell | xKintaro: are you using xchat or xchat-gnome? | 13:43 |
| xKintaro | Seriously, why has xchat been defiled, how do I get it back to normal? | 13:43 |
| xKintaro | xchat-gnome | 13:43 |
| bazhang | bellosguardo, it is end of life and no longer supported | 13:43 |
| Dr_Willis | xKintaro: ive see where xcaht has that 'resized' and its there just moved to the right so small you dont see it. | 13:43 |

| Wast3d2009 | th0r i have 8.04 LTS and cmake 2.4.2 but updating isnt working | 13:43 |
| xKintaro | well then I guess I will have to do that | 13:43 |
| th0r | Wast3d2009: you said you got 2.6 last night...where did you get it from? | 13:44 |

| zvacet | Wast3d2009 : add this repo deb http://hr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-backports main restricted universe multiverse and then try to install | 13:48 |

| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie2: depends on the audio codec the thing is using. You may need some extra libs.. run the acidemux command from a termianal look for any error messagtes that may give a clue. and/or try 'winff' | 13:48 |

| kindofabuzz | once ubuntu live is installed to a usb stick using unetbootin and then booted up, do i just keep using it as a live usb or should i actually install it on the usb stick? | 13:52 |

| Matr|X | when grub boot ,, he cant see the winxp parttions caz its strange name :$ | 13:53 |
| bazhang | kindofabuzz, you can make it persistent | 13:53 |
| myname_ | kindofabuzz, i would use it as a live stick | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie2: its possible you need some extra libs like 'libfaad' for the mp4a, ive had to track down some extra libs befor for some videos i converted. | 13:53 |
| earthen | kindofabuzz, you don't want to really install to a USB stick it would kill you usb stick pretty fast | 13:53 |
| Dr_Willis | kindofabuzz: unetbootin works as a live 'cd' on a stick | 13:53 |
| Master_ | phreck: how do i restart my settings to default? | 13:53 |
| kindofabuzz | earthen, basicaly because as live it runs from ram and persistent it would r/w all the time? | 13:54 |
| Dr_Willis | kindofabuzz: the ubuntu tools can install to stick and have a persistant home/save file also. | 13:54 |
| bazhang | Master_, a system restore? | 13:54 |
| Master_ | yep | 13:54 |
| phreck | Master_:What settings | 13:54 |

| ubuntunewbie2 | Dr_Willis: I think I had install almost all of the code | 13:55 |
| Matr|X | plz help | 13:55 |
| earthen | kindofabuzz, well usb is flash ram witch has only a limited amout of writes you can do to it, when ubuntu is there as a live os it does no writes to it | 13:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie2: could be some other libs. I dont have all the codecs/libs memorized. | 13:55 |
| Master_ | i installed a theme didnt know how to change it bk to my other theme so i unintalled it and know my sys slowly crashing. | 13:55 |
| kindofabuzz | earthen, gotcha | 13:55 |
| Matr|X | eny help | 13:55 |
| edellion | is anybody has a problem with gNeur? | 13:55 |
| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie2: perhaps theck the forums for the avidmux tool. searcing for that codec. ages ago i had to recompile memcoder, or somthing because the default dident have support for all the audio formats. | 13:56 |
| earthen | kindofabuzz, but if you were to do a actual install ubuntu would be using it a cash ram a so on. it would reduce the life od your USB stick allot | 13:56 |
| bazhang | http://www.debianadmin.com/backup-and-restore-your-ubuntu-system-using-sbackup.html Master_ | 13:56 |

| Dr_Willis | ubuntunewbie2: it could be the support programs (mencoder/ffmpeg) may not have support for that format, I use the ones from medibuntu repos if possible. could be support libs missing. I do know I convert mkv to other formats here all the time. You will just have to do some research. | 13:59 |
| earthen | Matr|X, I have the same problem if you find out let me know | 13:59 |

| Master_ | ok i opend up sbackup but it crashed emmidiatly | 13:59 |
| Dr_Willis | kindofabuzz: IF you do a setup with a peristant save/home - it can work.. but unetbootin does NOT set that up. | 13:59 |
| aurilliance | q: what's the name of the site where you can read laptop tests with ubuntu? | 14:00 |
| Dr_Willis | kindofabuzz: the directions at pendrivelinux, and the make usb-disk in the ubuntu menus can do that. | 14:00 |
| earthen | kindofabuzz, yes I think it does save and do updates and stuff | 14:00 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_Willis, so without persistant i can't install anything right? | 14:00 |

| Jonii^ | Actually, I never got to that "install"-part. I got cd from local library, and it said that I should try that try-without-installing to see if it works fine. It didn't. I was left with text interface with nowhere to go | 14:57 |

| mobi-sheep | liitu: It's all possibilities for you there. | 14:58 |
| mobi-sheep | liitu: Nothing? :< | 14:58 |
| Jonii^ | LinuxGold, you mean desktop interface is not included? | 14:58 |
| bret | my wife's laptop will not boot any live cd version of linux.... | 14:58 |
| Jonii^ | Oh, I thought... | 14:58 |
| Jonii^ | Then, gotta stick with windows | 14:58 |
| LinuxGold | jonii: can you tell us what you see when it booted up? | 14:58 |
| LinuxGold | did it show login prompt? | 14:58 |
| Jonii^ | Nothing but black and white. No graphics except that ubuntu logo + loading screen | 14:59 |
| bret | don't do it jonii.... windows is not the answer!!! :) | 14:59 |
| LinuxGold | so it just showed ubuntu logo forever? | 14:59 |
| Jonii^ | My windows also lacks desktop due to me screwing up a bit | 14:59 |
| djisamsoe | Myah: do you copy me? | 14:59 |

| liitu | mobi-sheep: yeah but it worked fine yesterday and the day before | 15:00 |
| Jonii^ | LinuxGold, nope | 15:00 |
| bret | how old is your laptop jonii? what kind of hardware? cpu? RAM? etc... | 15:00 |
| LinuxGold | *cough* 386 SX 33 | 15:00 |
| LinuxGold | *hides* | 15:00 |
| bret | haha :) | 15:00 |
| LinuxGold | I remembered recompiling a kernel on THAT machine | 15:01 |
| Jonii^ | It was almost like starting up, but then, it didn't. Lots of text came, can't recall waht | 15:01 |
| LinuxGold | had to make 2 pots of coffee before it was done. | 15:01 |
| LinuxGold | jonii: can you tell us the last line that might be useful for us? | 15:01 |
| Jonii^ | I don't have laptop. :o That box-type of computer that can't be dragged with you | 15:01 |
| Jonii^ | LinuxGold, sry, didn't think of that | 15:02 |
| bret | oh ok. I thought you said earlier it was a laptop.. :) | 15:02 |
| Jonii^ | I try again -> | 15:02 |
| LinuxGold | jonii: is that on other machine? | 15:02 |
| Jonii^ | LinuxGold, nope | 15:02 |
| LinuxGold | or on the machine that you are on right now? | 15:02 |
| Jonii^ | Oh, btw: is GNOME that graphical thing that should look like desktop? | 15:02 |
| bret | that would be it | 15:03 |
| LinuxGold | jonii: yes, gnome is desktop interface. | 15:03 |
| Jonii^ | My Windows somewhy lacks windows-bar, desktop, system tray and such after I did something to my hardware | 15:03 |
| LinuxGold | AHA! | 15:03 |
| legend2440 | Jonii^: you got the ubuntu cd from library? what version is it? jaunty is the latest version | 15:03 |
| LinuxGold | that might be it. | 15:03 |
| grouse | @LinuxGold, I'm back, did you get your problem solved? | 15:03 |
| Jonii^ | Had to open this irc-client through ctrl-alt-esc -> run -> explorer.exe -> navigate client since there was no desktop and nothing | 15:04 |
| Jonii^ | 8.10 | 15:04 |
| LinuxGold | grouse: nope. h4xx0ring still | 15:04 |
| LinuxGold | grouse: I noticed avahi next to wlan0 on ifconfig output | 15:04 |
| Jonii^ | Anyway, when I pressed power button, linux started shutting down stuff(with text output informing of that process), and it took a lot of time to get past "shutting down gnome" | 15:05 |
| thepeon_ | Is the bridge-util package working on the 2.6.28 kernel | 15:05 |
| LinuxGold | wlan0:avahi Link encap: Ether---- | 15:06 |
| Jonii^ | Anyway, I'll boot again -> | 15:06 |
| oldude67 | Jonii^, you know anything about your computer at all? like ram? video card? | 15:06 |
| bret | Jonii, my wife has a laptop that will not boot ubuntu live cd. I can't remember the exact error it gives before stopping. (it's been a while since ive tried), but it's something about not being able to mount the hard drives.... anything like that? | 15:06 |
| Jonii^ | There was no error | 15:06 |
| LinuxGold | tried to stopavahi-daemon /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon stop | 15:06 |
| LinuxGold | still show up in ifconfig | 15:07 |
| Jonii^ | It just... Stopped. With that prompt thingie("ubuntu-§" or something there) | 15:07 |
| LinuxGold | jonii: likely hardware problem | 15:07 |
| bret | so you did get a prompt? | 15:07 |

| eeas | hi | 15:08 |

| ajavid | I did aptitude search linux-image and -server ? | 15:12 |

| torn | xcalibur, not usually, no. Most audio cards are natively supported with the latest versions of Linux. | 16:49 |
| bastidrazor | Frank83, just keep some older version in the grub in case the modified one is borked. boot in to the older version then reinstall the borked unmodified new. | 16:49 |
| xcalibur | ok,..well my soundcard only works when it's on WIn XP | 16:50 |

| Dark_Wolf | minimec, I'm on the manufacturers website, and it routed me to http://gkall.hobby.nl/downloads.html but I have no idea where to go from there | 16:59 |

| scunizi | When looking at system monitor with "view all processes & dependancies" I see a Zombie process under deskbar-applet that I can't seem to kill.. any suggestions? | 16:59 |
| Mion | it's fairly easy | 16:59 |
| torn | Mion, is it really that noticeable (performance, stability, etc) when using a custom compiled kernel? | 16:59 |
| Mion | you could take the build scripts for the official kernel and nvidia packages, and adapt them to your need | 17:00 |
| torn | Mion, so that I can use the .deb later, instead of having to compile everytime I format/reinstall? | 17:00 |
| saad_ | ya d francais | 17:00 |
| torn | Hm. | 17:00 |
| Mion | the performance depends on what you do in the config, and what you optimice the kernel for | 17:00 |
| minimec | Dark_Wolf: ??? This is a sane scanner driver page... You were talking about a creative WebCam... | 17:00 |
| Mion | torn: yes, it would also make it easier to upgrade/uninstall your custom kernel and drivers | 17:01 |

| ascheel | Frank83: that question is better suited for #svn or #subversion | 17:58 |
| ascheel | !svn | Frank83 | 17:58 |
| ubottu | Frank83: svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/ | 17:58 |

| fosa | Condoulo, ah thanks, i'll try that :) | 18:08 |
| Condoulo | fosa, no problem. | 18:08 |
| icarus | i deleted my help icon from my pannel how do i get it back? | 18:08 |
| minimec | mark_: 3D is in the preferences appearance menu... resolution in the preferences display menu. | 18:08 |
| AJC_Z0 | Condoulo: Did you get the Flash plugin to which i referred you working? | 18:08 |
| msk | ascheel : i mean , that .bak file...is it a useful one ? will renaming work ? | 18:09 |
| minimec | mark_: resolution could also be in the ATI/Nvidia settings tool. | 18:09 |
| msk | ascheel : i guess i need a Live CD to rename it ? | 18:09 |
| Frank83 | AJC_Z0: Well, Ubuntu does recognize the Hardware and even has a module (RTL8185) for it. But It has some problems: Low signal, extreme use of power (Some say it could lead to a burnt card) and so on. I tried the Ndiswrapper method with no success at all. So I'm going to try this one. And to the other question, I already installed the build-essentials and the other things needed | 18:09 |
| AJC_Z0 | icarus: Find it in the Applications menu and right click, then "Add this launcher to panel" | 18:10 |
| Whitor | With Ubuntu, Is there anything I should change if I take a hard drive out of one machine and place it in a separate (identicle) machine? ... The only things that are different are the MAC adds for the nics in this thing | 18:10 |
| Condoulo | AJC_Z0, uhh... wasn't too worried about the plugin, already had that. When I choose to run Firefox 3.5 from a folder (because it handles my settings properly unlike the one in the repos do,) it won't want to recognize the plugin file in the folder. I think the issue is the version I'm running from the folder isn't compatible w/ 64-bit plugins | 18:10 |
| Whitor | I keep getting periodically dropped from the network for split seconds | 18:10 |
| msk | ascheel : i don't have any other kernels available ..:) | 18:10 |
| ascheel | msk: I think so. A LiveCD will probably be required. | 18:11 |
| Whitor | makes it hard to raid in WoW .... heh | 18:11 |
| ascheel | msk: How did it get corrupted? | 18:11 |
| mark_ | minimec: the resolution im at fits my laptop per fectly and i cant find the 3D in the appearence menu | 18:11 |
| AJC_Z0 | Frank83: svn is in simplest terms just a tool to download files, so if you are comfortable with all I mentioned, then try it, but be careful what you change | 18:11 |
| ascheel | Whitor: I think swapping the HDDs would probably work. | 18:11 |
| msk | ascheel : not sure....but i did use gparted...it fixed many errors | 18:12 |
| ascheel | msk: gparted itself is safe. Do you have a failing HDD? | 18:12 |
| Whitor | ascheel, welll it works ... but I get an occasional disconnect... I'm trying to discern wheter it is Hardware or software related | 18:12 |
| icarus | AJ_Z0, it is not there | 18:12 |
| msk | ascheel : no | 18:12 |
| Frank83 | AJC_Z0: Will do, thanks for the help and the advices. I've already made the necessary arrangements just in case I blow up the Kernel. | 18:12 |
| AJC_Z0 | Condoulo: What setting(s) doesn't the native 3.5 handle? Just curious (since I'm using it with no problems) | 18:13 |
| Whitor | if oyu see me disconnecting and reconnecting ... this is why | 18:13 |
| minimec | mark_: disable the visual effects, if they are activated. | 18:13 |
| ascheel | Whitor: wireless or wired? | 18:13 |
| Whitor | ascheel, wired | 18:13 |
| Condoulo | AJC_Z0, the one in the repos is having issues configuring the search engine for me. =/ | 18:13 |
| mark_ | minimec: ok i just did | 18:13 |
| ascheel | Whitor: have you for sure ruled out the switch/router the PC is connected to? | 18:13 |
| ascheel | Whitor: Try plugging it into the port a known-good PC is currently plugged into. | 18:13 |
| Whitor | ascheel, yes. the other puter works fine on the same wire | 18:14 |
| msk | ascheel : thanks for ur replies.... | 18:14 |
| icarus | AJ_Z0, it is not there | 18:14 |
| AJC_Z0 | icarus: I am not AJ_Z0. Right click on the panel, choose "Add to panel" and hunt it down. You didn't remove the yelp package, did you? | 18:14 |
| icarus | yelp? | 18:14 |
| ascheel | msk: sorry I couldn't be of more help. I'm going to recommend a reinstall of Ubuntu over top of your current installation or perhaps a format/reinstall | 18:14 |

| manish | boss_mc: can u tell me what is SSH ? | 18:30 |
| Loafers | !ssh | manish | 18:30 |
| ubottu | manish: SSH is the Secure SHell protocol, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for client usage. Putty is an SSH client for Windows; see: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ for it's homepage. See also !scp (Secure CoPy) and !sshd (Secure SHell Daemon) | 18:30 |
| b3rz3rk3r | ok, weird thing just happened. Started up my FF as i always do, but now my fonts have changed. I have tried setting them back from the Options menu, but nothing changes. All the settings there are the defaults (serif, 16) Help? | 18:30 |
| boss_mc | manish: ssh = Secure Sockets Layer = An encrypted communication protocol, used for remote access to machines | 18:30 |
| Yossarian | yes Loafers thanks a bunch :D | 18:30 |
| Yossarian | but is there any way to undo it if i change my mind later on? | 18:31 |
| boss_mc | manish: ha, ssh, ssl, similar... ssh is Secure SHell | 18:31 |
| Loafers | b3rz3rk3r, By any chance did you install anything recently before using FireFox? | 18:31 |
| Loafers | Yossarian, No clue, I just googled that link. Maybe you can find the answer with another google | 18:31 |
| srynznfyra | I have a question. I've installed two custom kernels on jaunty (2.6.30.4). One of them was a complete custom config, the other was pulled from generic but with a couple mods such as CPU architecture, low latency, and XFS as built in instead of module. When booting both of these kernels I haven't been able to get to a shell or X environment, all it has is a blinking white cursor. I am using GRUB 2 by the way, I thought it might have something to do with tha | 18:31 |
| manish | So, how to secure linux box from ssh in network as an administrator ? | 18:32 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Loafers, only the updates (which i noticed did update FF 3.0 to FF 3.5. but my other machine (laptop with exactly the same setup and updates) continues to work as normal | 18:32 |
| srynznfyra | @manish: you mean stop people from ssh'ing to it? | 18:32 |
| Flare183 | manish: Very secure | 18:32 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Loafers, il upload an img to show you | 18:32 |
| manish | srynznfyra: yes | 18:32 |
| Flare183 | !imagebin | b3rz3rk3r | 18:32 |
| ubottu | b3rz3rk3r: Screenshots can be made with the [PrtScr] button. Want to show us a screenshot of your problem? Upload an image to http://tinyurl.com/imagebin and post a link to it. | 18:32 |
| boss_mc | manish: well, your outside firewall will block the ports, as will the iptables/ufw on the individual machines unless explicitly opened | 18:32 |
| Loafers | b3rz3rk3r, I had the same problem as you and I remember it had something to do with an app i installed | 18:33 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Loafers, http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/4012/screenshotn.png | 18:33 |
| srynznfyra | ok, well you can just uninstall ssh if you don't want any ssh access. To stop people ssh'ing to it, you can just not tell them the password maybe? | 18:33 |
| Flare183 | srynznfyra: Or you could just stop the ssh service | 18:33 |
| srynznfyra | @flare: yess didn't think of that | 18:33 |
| nifty | anyone know a good forum to find programmers? | 18:33 |
| teimu | Flare183, righto, /etc/init.d/ssh stop | 18:33 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Loafers, rememeber what it was? Iv messsed with a few packages recently, but nothing that should render fonts differently in FF surely? | 18:33 |
| srynznfyra | @teimu: that should work yes | 18:34 |
| Flare183 | teimu: Exactly | 18:34 |
| manish | If two admins are in one network can one admin ssh'ing without others knowledge ? | 18:34 |
| srynznfyra | but does anyone know about the blinking white cursor death screen with a custom compiled kernel? (2.6.30.4 on jaunty) | 18:34 |
| Flare183 | manish: Well, the only way you can find out if someone else is ssh'ed to the computer/server is to use the command, users | 18:35 |
| b3rz3rk3r | Loafers, only two recently installed that i can remember are Ear_Candy, and AptonCD.. but neither of those should affect my fonts? | 18:35 |
| Loafers | b3rz3rk3r, I thought so too, but I remember i was really pissed when my fonts were changed and everything was defaulted. Try checking System > Preferences > Apperance > Fonts Tab and see if they are defaults. | 18:35 |
| manish | Flare183: thanks | 18:35 |

| b3rz3rk3r | Loafers, will do | 18:35 |

| Pici | blognewb: executable, and its +x, not -x | 19:15 |
| Flare183 | blognewb: +x makes the file executable | 19:15 |
| blognewb | +even sorry | 19:15 |
| Halitech | xerox1, don't go to those sites? | 19:16 |

| kattollikisd | MrPiracy, when i installed ubuntu 9.04 the screen was really slow because the driver was Vesa, so i correct that problem and changed to the correct driver that the driver is a openchrome. tha card is a VIA Technologies, Inc. CN896/VN896/P4M900 [Chrome 9 HC] (rev 01) | 19:16 |
| Halitech | xerox1, what do you mean by lame? | 19:16 |
| xerox1 | Halitech, the sites are jerking | 19:17 |
| manish | Flare183: Did u heard about EMC ? | 19:17 |
| MrPiracy | kattollikisd: i have not experience with this card your using ... did u check their website for proper linux drivers? | 19:17 |
| Halitech | xerox1, does it only happen on some sites? | 19:17 |
| Flare183 | manish: Is it Ubuntu related? | 19:18 |
| xerox1 | Halitech, yes | 19:18 |
| manish | Flare183: It is storage related | 19:18 |
| Flare183 | manish: Then just PM me | 19:18 |
| manish | Flare183: I heard that EMC is very hot now a days in USA and Australia so, interested to know about it | 19:18 |
| kattollikisd | MrPiracy, of yes. right now im in one here that is telling me about 2D driver to install it. but i would like to know if i alreally have the 2D driver. i can install the 3D becuase the speed of my card is a 256mb :S | 19:19 |
| NikLP | does anyone actually answer questions in here, or do you all just talk amongst yourselves? :/ | 19:19 |
| Flare183 | NikLP: Of course we answer question | 19:19 |
| Flare183 | questions* | 19:19 |
| edbian | NikLP: I'm here to answer questions | 19:19 |
| Halitech | xerox1, open firefox and in the addressbar type in about:config and search for general.smoothScroll and click it to make it true | 19:19 |
| MrPiracy | kattollikisd: ohhh, i thought you wanted 3D acceleration, sorry | 19:19 |
| NikLP | this comes as a surprise.. :p | 19:19 |
| Halitech | NikLP, no, we just talk among ourselves :D | 19:19 |
| NikLP | Halitech: :p | 19:20 |
| MrPiracy | kattollikisd: well, at least it says you have direct rendering and OpenGL .... so i think you're fine | 19:20 |
| NikLP | I've little experience with low-level OS stuff, but I'm wondering if this magical OS (NBR) has some mechanism to move my install from 1 drive to another | 19:20 |
| NikLP | specifically, an SD card install to SSD | 19:20 |
| xerox1 | Halitech, it is already true - i beleave the problem is more content related - flash for example | 19:20 |
| edbian | NikLP: NBR = ubuntu netbook remix? | 19:21 |
| kattollikisd | MrPiracy, jajaja it ok :) ohhh ok thanks :) | 19:21 |
| MrPiracy | kattollikisd: np | 19:21 |
| NikLP | y'see, I have fiddled and tweaked my SD install to the point where I might want to not have to do it all again from afresh | 19:21 |
| xerox1 | Halitech, therefore i have installed flash-plugin from adobe | 19:21 |
| Halitech | xerox1, oh, if its normally flash sites then blame that on adobe for not giving us good flash programs | 19:21 |
| NikLP | edbian: I have a Eee901 with Ubuntu Netbook Remix on the SD, yes | 19:21 |
| bret | xerox1: are you running adobe flash or gnash? I am having no problems with flash from adobes site | 19:22 |
| xerox1 | bret, adobe flash | 19:22 |
| edbian | NikLP: "sudo dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/dev/sdb" where sda is the original host partition and sdb is the target destination. Then you have to install grub to the SSD's MBR. | 19:23 |
| Skarpz | cool I am now using kde :) | 19:23 |
| edbian | NikLP: To get a list of your harddrives and they corresponding /dev/...s "sudo fdisk -l" | 19:23 |
| kblr | i've got a sever running jaunty, and i just tried to upgrade mysql from 5.0 to 5.1. the upgrade failed miserably, so i tried to roll back, and now mysql won't start. any ideas how i can debug this? | 19:23 |
| NikLP | edbian: sounds horribly complicated :p | 19:24 |
| edbian | NikLP: It's 2 steps :) | 19:24 |
| Skarpz | df | 19:24 |
| Halitech | edbian, but but you expect them to type something in the terminal? *gasps* thats sooo 80's | 19:25 |
| edbian | NikLP: dd and grub-install Search the ubuntu forums. I'm pretty sure there's a how to on moving ubuntu from one partition to another | 19:25 |
| NikLP | edbian: grub installation is difficult I thought? | 19:25 |
| NikLP | edbian: ok thanks :) | 19:25 |
| edbian | NikLP: It's as simple as "grub-install /dev/sda" | 19:25 |
| NikLP | edbian: cool! :P | 19:25 |

| dhillon-v10 | trinidad_: are you still there | 19:28 |
| trinidad_ | Dhillon-v10: what my problem is simply the network manager wont allow either the ethernet or wireless to connect | 19:28 |

| trinidad_ | Dhillon-v10: Well i am not in ubuntu right now but i have ran ifconfig -a, iwconfig, and lshw -C network and have the posts from those | 19:30 |
| codeshah | Just a note to say that after implementing jnermut's suggestion to run the 32 bit JDK instead of the 64 bit had an instant impact on my memory use. It almost halved Java's memory use from 85% to 45%. | 19:30 |
| codeshah | Halitech, I just did the default ubuntu install... sun-java6 etc | 19:30 |
| ocool | hello, i need help setting upmy wifi in ubuntu 9.04 jaunty the connectio | 19:30 |

| ocool | and it doesnt wanna use wifi | 19:31 |
| codeshah | Halitech, would I need to install it manually, not through apt-get ? | 19:31 |
| dhillon-v10 | trinidad_: alright so first we start from diagnosting | 19:31 |
| dhillon-v10 | trinidad_: take out your network wire and plug it in again | 19:31 |
| Skarpz | Is there any way I can get zsnes to work on my 64 bit system? | 19:31 |
| Halitech | codeshah, I would guess you would have to get the tar or bin file and install it that way, probably need the ia32 libs as well | 19:31 |
| Guest79287 | A package I am trying to install asks for xorg-x11-proto-devel but apt-get does not find it, Why is this so? | 19:31 |
| codeshah | Halitech, thx | 19:32 |
| kblr | so, anyone? jaunty, mysql 5.0 -> 5.1 failure, help? | 19:32 |

| Halitech | THEBUGUSER, nmap will scan your network | 19:33 |
| THEBUGUSER | thank you | 19:33 |
| dhillon-v10 | trinidad_: Okay disconnect and connect again, let's just try that | 19:33 |
| trinidad_ | Dhillon-v10: I would have to shut down and restart in ubuntu but i would not be able to communicate with you | 19:33 |
| ocool | does anyone know why my wifi aint working? | 19:34 |
| trinidad_ | Dhillon-v10: until i restarted in windows or a live disc | 19:34 |

| Jonii^ | If anyone can help me, please private message. I got "fatal error, no screens found" when I typed "startx" after my 8.10 ubuntu failed to launch graphic desktop | 20:39 |
| AlexanderSupertr | that sets permissions only for top level dir | 20:39 |
| foundry87 | I'm trying to use the border effect feature with the gnome screenshot tool but it's not working. The command I'm using is gnome-screenshot --area --border-effect=shadow and when I save the image there is no border. | 20:39 |
| stroyan | trinidad_: I think you used to be able to have wlan0 in the interfaces file and still use network-manager. Now you need to either leave the NIC out of interfaces or add that setting to /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf. (I never had wlan0 in my interfaces file.) | 20:39 |
| AlexanderSupertr | how would i apply them to child dirs also? | 20:40 |
| bret | trinidad_: from that I can't see why you can't connect... your card was assigned an ip address, so it should do something... | 20:40 |
| AgtLaundry | nicklas_: it should be working out of the box, but you might have to google abit to get all the keys working... | 20:40 |
| nicklas_ | AgtLaundry: yeah :-) | 20:40 |
| trinidad_ | its almost like another manager tried to take over the connection but i don know what | 20:41 |
| AgtLaundry | nicklas_: something is very wrong if you have to reinstall to get a keyboard working... | 20:41 |

| maco | owen1_: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list | 21:00 |

| za119 | erUSUL I am on my laptop and I cannot ssh into the box to cut and paste | 21:06 |

| {DJ} | VCoolio are you running python 2.6 | 21:06 |
| za119 | I can copy it exactly tho | 21:06 |
| za119 | hold on erUSUL | 21:06 |

| rudihawk | and type in the PID | 21:06 |
| rudihawk | hit: y | 21:06 |
| maco | Keaton: if the driver, get an account on launchpad.net then run "ubuntu-bug linux" and itll have you go to the browser and fill in info about the bug. after it gives you the bug number run "apport-collect -p alsa-base <bug number>" (dont include the <>) | 21:06 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: also, yes; but these are not helpful questions | 21:07 |
| rudihawk | and then when its ended, just type nautilus to start it up again! | 21:07 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: what do you want to do and what's the problem? | 21:07 |
| za119 | erUSUL "2:8:0 Ethernet Controller: VIA technologies inc. VT82C570MV (rev 86)" | 21:07 |

| {DJ} | VCoolio so the main point here is to upgrade to python 2.6 | 21:08 |
| {DJ} | VCoolio can you help | 21:08 |
| p1und3r | does anyone know a good method for ripping swf files off a site and being able to play them locally? | 21:09 |
| VCoolio | I think you don't upgrade, you install 2.6, because it can function alongside 2.4 and others | 21:09 |

| Keaton | maco, Did all the stuff in your blog, killed pulseaudio, ran your 'aplay /usr/...' command, same results as before. It thinks it's playing sound, but i get nothing. | 21:09 |

| stercor | I just added a new hard drive to my system. How do I tell whether Ubuntu knows about it. mount didn't seem to see it. | 21:09 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: I've had some luck with that using downloadhelper to download the swf and then just loading them in firefox (or prism, sometimes) to run them. | 21:10 |
| foundry87 | Why is it that I can't add a border effect with gnome screenshot when taking an area screenshot? | 21:10 |
| erUSUL | za119: is an integrated card or is pci ? | 21:10 |
| p1und3r | cellofellow: i found that downloadhelper wasn't ripping swf for ANY site, have you ever found one you couldn't get | 21:10 |
| Iowahc | anyone can help me with my problem? | 21:10 |
| za119 | erUSUL PCI | 21:10 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: behold, you can just "sudo apt-get install python2.6" | 21:10 |
| erUSUL | !fstab | stercor | 21:10 |
| ubottu | stercor: 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 | 21:10 |
| maco | Keaton: ok then file a bug | 21:11 |
| maco | Keaton: gimme the bug # too | 21:11 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: check your app for other dependencies like pythongtk and stuff | 21:11 |
| erUSUL | za119: are you sure you plugged it correctly ? maybe is a little bit loose ? works in windows? (you have it installed? | 21:11 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: only done that once or twice, I'm afraid. Thing with SWFs is it's harder to obfuscate their address than with the FLVs they normally load. Maybe just check the source and use wget to grab it. | 21:11 |

| VCoolio | {DJ}: are you compiling Pyzor? then you'll also need python2.6-dev | 21:12 |
| p1und3r | cellofellow: well i did find a .swf file that i was able to download to my desktop, but i get a Gstreamer error when playing it and when i open it up in firefox it's just a blank screen | 21:12 |
| erUSUL | za119: if it works in windows we can rule out a hardware problem... i'm at lost.. dunno why it is not working | 21:13 |
| p1und3r | cellofellow: but i can see flash off the website itself | 21:13 |
| za119 | erUSUL idk man thnx for the help though I really appreciate it | 21:13 |
| maco | Keaton: i explained how to file a bug with all the sound debugging info attached above | 21:13 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: the developer probably figured out that people could just download his swf and play it offline so he made it so it has to load other data to work. | 21:13 |
| {DJ} | VCoolio Im on Ubuntu LTS any recommendations like sources i can add to apt get install afterwards or do u recommend compiling from source | 21:13 |
| erUSUL | za119: no problem | 21:13 |

| MichaelReed | im running Ubuntu 8.04 and i need to get a wireless card working. | 21:13 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: gstreamer can only play swfs that are basically animations. No actionscript, I think. | 21:14 |
| p1und3r | cellofellow: mm... let me test the same method with youtube... that should work | 21:14 |
| Keaton | maco, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/403064 | 21:14 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: I definitely recommend adding sources instead of compiling; you'll get updates and all; use system > admin > software sources or add /etc/apt/sources.list manually | 21:14 |
| maco | cellofellow: ive played with swf games in swfdec-gnome before | 21:14 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: youtube uses swf mini-apps to play FLV or MP4 files, the SWF does very little. | 21:14 |
| Keaton | maco, Looks like someone else posted a possible fix. I'll try their ideas, see what happens. | 21:14 |
| cellofellow | maco: oh, that's nice to know. | 21:15 |
| {DJ} | VCoolio what sources shall i add ? any idea ? sorry for being such a newby | 21:15 |
| cellofellow | maco: but does swfdec use gstreamer? I thought it was something like gnash, standalone. | 21:15 |
| albert_ | hi! | 21:15 |
| Bookman | Is there a plug in/extension for rhythm box that will allow integration with shoutcast like Amarok has? Amarok just freezes or is extremely slow on my machines | 21:15 |
| maco | cellofellow: yes, it depends on gstreamer | 21:15 |
| p1und3r | cellofellow: hrmm so these youtube rippers are really doing alot of work to get the video to you i guess? | 21:15 |
| cellofellow | hm | 21:16 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: sources to add depend on applications / things you want to install, there are lots of them | 21:16 |
| maco | p1und3r: no, youtube ripping is easy | 21:16 |
| albert_ | There is some file to open Farmville Facebook game? someone know it? | 21:16 |
| p1und3r | i need to rip this : http://www.time.com/time/video/?bcpid=1485842900&bctid=32551830001 | 21:16 |
| maco | p1und3r: using swfdec i right click on it -> properties, left click the .flv and hit the save button | 21:16 |
| p1und3r | is this gunna be possible for me to figure out? | 21:16 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: it deducts the address of the flv or mp4 file. Some just capture the address the swf loads, others are less direct like the command-line youtube-dl. | 21:16 |
| maco | p1und3r: other players make it MUCH harder | 21:16 |
| {DJ} | VCoolio I am running Ubuntu LTS latest version i beleive it was 8 if im not mistaken | 21:16 |

| VCoolio | {DJ}: try to use the stuff that already is in the ubuntu repos, it is safe and stable; if you want newest version or apps or apps that are not in the default, add repos; there is a thread on ubuntuforums in the forum cafe about repos | 21:19 |
| mikejet | How do I set the screensaver timeout? | 21:19 |
| MichaelReed | im running ubuntu 8.04 and i need to get a wireless adapter working. | 21:20 |
| VCoolio | {DJ}: so just look at the apps you use; if you're satisfied, don't bother; if newer versions have features you need, add the repos for it | 21:20 |
| joeyeye | MichaelReed: ... so what's your question ? | 21:20 |
| p1und3r | cellfellow: does your downloadhelper let you rip from that site? my downlaodhelper icon stays grayed out | 21:20 |
| MichaelReed | how to get ubuntu to use my adapter | 21:21 |
| eb4bgr | michaelreed, ubuntu 9.04 works with many wireless adapters, and can be connect to a wpa2-psk wireless protected network. | 21:21 |
| joeyeye | MichaelReed: I assume it's plugged in ? | 21:21 |
| MichaelReed | i use 8.04 since it's more compatible with my games. | 21:21 |
| {DJ} | VCoolio any idea where i can ask for the right repos for python 2.6 ? | 21:21 |
| blognewb_ | hello anyone? What does the -m option in killall mean? it doesn't say in Man :(((((( | 21:22 |
| cellofellow | p1und3r: greyed out downloadhelper icon means try something else, downloadhelper can't deduce the address. Though, on that address I'm getting a "currently unavailable" error in the video, which might mean something. | 21:22 |

| len | maco, I'll give it a shot. Ty very much | 21:48 |
| ks3 | If you've got the script in the directory you want, just type 'chmod +x /path/to/script'. That lets Linux know that it is an executable file. | 21:48 |

| nztal | on a default ubuntu installation, isn't the firewall up ? i had some unusual behavior in jaunty. apps were being launched that i didn't click on, as well as my user logging out and trying to login as guest. i powered down went to recovery kernel, went to shell with no net, changed my users password, then went back and enabled root login then checked sys with chkrootkit and rkhunter, nothing was found. any ideas ? | 21:49 |

| scott_ino | YodaMaster, fullscreen video playback for flash with youtube has known to be kinda messed up... | 21:49 |
| YodaMaster | it's really a mess | 21:49 |
| jtk001c | ks3, I have access it at the moment. I want to make sure I can start it. | 21:49 |
| maco | nztal: it exists but it is not configured to block anything since there are no services listening which would need to be blocked. of course, if you ADD a service, configuring it is a good idea | 21:50 |
| jtk001c | I'm setting up the computer to be a proxy so I have my home IP address when I'm at school | 21:50 |
| waieez | ks3 i think there might be a problem with your suggestion though, the script should be placed in wine's virtual c:/ drive. but I can't seem to locate the directory using terminal | 21:50 |
| b0w | helloo! recently i upgraded from firefox 3.0 to firefox 3.5.1 manually but one day i got some upgrades to firefox 3.0 i did the upgrade and it changed my firefox back to 3.0 then i change this again to 3.5.1 and java stopped working, i have it installed and enabled in firefox, any idea? | 21:50 |
| YodaMaster | no other alternative? | 21:50 |
| jtk001c | I want to make sure if the laptop shuts down, I can restart it. | 21:50 |
| * shamm is now running irssi | 21:50 | |
| nztal | maco, ooh ok. i had not turned on any services. if my system was compromised, it would be from a fresh ubuntu install | 21:50 |
| mattwj2002 | awesome thanks | 21:50 |
| mattwj2002 | :) | 21:50 |
| ks3 | jtk001c, Wake on LAN is a BIOS setting, so you'd have to reboot to ensure it's enabled. You can find the MAC address with ifconfig. Even so, it sounds like that may not work for you. You have to send the Wake on LAN request from the local network of the machine. | 21:50 |
| maco | nztal: with no services running, im not sure what theyd have spoken to to get in :-/ | 21:50 |
| scott_ino | YodaMaster, there are tons of workarounds, fixes, tweaks, suggestions about this. Do you have Compiz enabled (desktop effects) | 21:51 |
| nztal | maco, ok thank you | 21:51 |
| maco | nztal: enabling root login is also not a good idea for security. attackers know the username is root. | 21:51 |
| nztal | maco, my root login is not enabled | 21:51 |
| Cyberish | hey i | 21:51 |
| ks3 | waieez, I believe that would be under your home directory, something like ~/.wine/c | 21:51 |
| jtk001c | ks3, If I set up a VPN would that solve my problem? | 21:51 |
| maco | nztal: try "lastlog" to see who tried logging in from where? | 21:51 |

| soreau | hkais2: That's almost always indicative of a driver bug or bug in xorg, the more likelyhood would be in the gfx driver. Which graphics card and driver are you using? | 22:16 |

| xtknight | erUSUL, also any possible way i can get my max clock? | 22:23 |
| gartral | ajavid: it's called a preveiw browser because theres still bug when compileing it against a pre 2.30 kernal | 22:23 |
| soreau | hkais2: Alright, there is a known bug with the nvidia drivers about the updating region issue. So I recommend downgrading to the version of the nvidia driver that was working with the damage region issue, then set Sync to GLX in ccsm>Workarounds | 22:23 |
| erUSUL | xtknight: the bios would report only the nominal speeds afaics. so nothing wrong here | 22:23 |
| xtknight | erUSUL, in windows, i see lower multipliers happening in downscaling but the fsb is as expected | 22:24 |
| soreau | hkais2: And see if that fixes it for ya | 22:24 |

| ajavid | maco, yes there is | 22:25 |
| edbian | [1]AWE: There is also "apt-get purge" or synaptic... or aptitude | 22:25 |
| ajavid | maco, odd numbers are development trees | 22:25 |
| ajavid | maco, pre 2.3 means a 2.2 or less kernel | 22:25 |
| gartral | ajavid: 2.30 it's specific, and the reason Ubuntu 9.04 is 2.28 is because 2.30 is not at all compatible with most current software... wait for Karmic too have 2.30 kernals | 22:25 |
| erUSUL | ajavid: not anymore since a few years... | 22:25 |
| maco | ajavid: is it still in use? | 22:25 |
| ajavid | gartral, what are you on about, its not 2.28 | 22:25 |
| ajavid | or 2.30 | 22:25 |
| erUSUL | ajavid: there is no 2.30 kernel you mean 2.6.30 | 22:25 |

| tech_help | how do you copy multiple files at once with ssh? | 23:12 |
| Neeon | I think i've messed it up | 23:12 |
| Umeaboy | mpmc: I haven't used any such commands for Ubuntu, just Mandriva. | 23:13 |
| jrib | tech_help: scp should work the same as cp basically... | 23:13 |
| Umeaboy | I'm not sure if they'll work. | 23:13 |
| stroyan | tech_help: Copy multiple files from system to system with scp or rsync. Both can use the same ssh credentials. | 23:13 |

I'd like the 'designed for small screen' UI in the netbook remix, but I'm pretty sure I'll need the 'alternate' install CD to set up the RAID array I need. Is there a way to install the netbook remix's interface via the standard version of ubuntu? | 23:14 |

Actually I think I was having a connection earlier, because I read something about status authenticated, but I believe the router has me on a blacklist for too much connection attempts and that is why I cannot connect anymore. Anyway I am trying to understand more of the | 23:39 |
| trism | innomen: were you the one looking for a regex for ::word1::word2 earlier? | 23:40 |
| bruce__ | my HDD seems to be a bit fried, gparted reports that its an unknown (rather than ext2) partition, anyway to fix this or get the data back | 23:40 |
| innomen | trism, yes, i finally solved that problem with a spreadsheet and creative use of replace | 23:40 |
| donavan_ | is there a program I can use to test openGL to make sure its working correctly | 23:40 |
| xxx_ | ElronMcBong, it probly doesn't work because linux drivers are bad and ubuntu 9 is bad | 23:40 |
| stroyan | donavan_: glxgears is the traditional first test. | 23:41 |
| thelostfaith | E: mysql-server-5.0: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1 | 23:41 |
| innomen | trism, i inserted commas before and after the :: and then used it as a delimiter in spreadsheet, which gave me colums to manipulate seperately | 23:41 |
| thelostfaith | Why do I keep getting that error? | 23:41 |
| thelostfaith | I've followed everything on the forums. I still continue to run into that | 23:41 |
| b3rz3rk3r | ElronMcBong, if you need access to the router again, you can change your IP | 23:41 |
| innomen | trism, then i pasted the result into scite and replaced all the tabs with nothing resulting in a solid block of text, and open office liked the result | 23:41 |
| ElronMcBong | b3rz3rk3r: good idea | 23:41 |
| donavan_ | stroyan ... thanks | 23:42 |
| trism | innomen: clever, figured out how to do it with sed after you left, but that works too | 23:42 |
| innomen | trism, i'm trying to do something similaer now but the standard.dic file ignores manual entries | 23:42 |
| innomen | trism, i'm sure your way was/is more versatile | 23:43 |
| b3rz3rk3r | ElronMcBong, failing that you can always spoof your MAC address locally if it doesnt blacklist by IP.. (but it should, so no need to worry about that) | 23:43 |
| trism | innomen: yeah, I saw you were trying to do something with \0, but I wasn't sure what | 23:43 |
| sergei1 | Hi | 23:44 |

| sergei1 | anyone know, how to change mac address of ether on start-up | 23:44 |
| innomen | trism, well the body of text when it contains words added through office itself, includes a "NUL" character before each added word, i cant type or copy or paste this character and i need to, any ideas? | 23:44 |
| stroyan | innomen: Have you seen http://www.linux.com/archive/articles/51675 ? | 23:44 |
| innomen | stroyan, no, but i'm looking now | 23:44 |
| b3rz3rk3r | ElronMcBong, you definitely have an IP assigned, if you didnt do it manually, then it will have been done automatically for you | 23:45 |
| b3rz3rk3r | ElronMcBong, hubble fan? | 23:45 |
| innomen | stroyan, i'll read that in total later but its old and i know that how dictonaries worked changed signifigatly in 3.x | 23:45 |
| Arthur_Rainbow | Does anyone know how to configure the keyboard, I would like that "caps lock" key act as a "alt"/"meta" key. I can't find this option in the keyboard setting of ubuntu | 23:46 |
| innomen | trism, when you say \0 are you saying there is a way to make the editor see \0 as null? | 23:46 |
| Arthur_Rainbow | (I can do that "caps lock" act as "ctrl", but not as "alt") | 23:46 |
| innomen | Arthur_Rainbow, there is an old app that will do that, i'm trying to think of the name | 23:47 |

| ElronMcBong | b3rz3rk3r: erm? well I am interested in astronomy and physics a bit, why do you ask? Regarding the IP.. I have two machines and the one we are talking about might have gotten an IP assigned, but I think the machine didn't chitchat DHCP with the router.. I just wonder why this doesn't work anymore.. and it still doesn't even after having changed my MAC adress | 23:49 |
| trism | innomen: you might try sed -e "s/\x00//g" < in_file > outfile | 23:49 |
| trism | innomen: to remove the nulls | 23:49 |
| innomen | its lets you arbitrarily reassign what keys do, but be very careful only apply changes that you make do not let it apply all keys else you'll break something, i did | 23:49 |
